you look at obama and jimmy carter. absolutely you know lee what is interesting to me and we sometimes overstress this but it's fairly palpable to me because one of the fortunate things about my job is i get to talk to everybody you guys and i get a different read from different folks but within the democratic party, there is this really obsessive push to the hard left, but let's say by congresswoman cortez and then you have a house leader like dan kildee just a couple minutes ago saying that approach of keeping a list of democrats who vote with republicans that's not good for the party, not good for governing so there is this sort of battle for the party still going on. >> there is but it's much like with the republicans went through in 2015 what kind of party are we going to be and when you've got this many different candidates that are running it, that's exactly what it is. it is a battle for who they are and who they want to be and is it going to be the party of the far left? i'm not sure. is it going to be the part

bush, we only have one president -- world war i president left which is jimmy carter and -- jimmy carter. every president was a world war ii president. much longer -- larger world war ii looms over world war i, right? important, truman was a reader of history. he loved history. and he studied the outcome of this war and realized, we have to take a different tack after the war was over and come up with a different way to create peace, rather than cementing revenge with our enemies and having to fight a war against them one more time. was the outcome of the first work at we had to rolla heavily upon our allies to give us all of our munitions and our heavy equipment during the war. what was amazing once we started this war in 1914, the u.s. army numbered 108,000 soldiers. largely arrayed to fight the last war which was against the american indians on the frontier. the largest numbered 108,000 soldiers. largely unit was regiments. we were so not prepared to fight a modern war. world war i was a giant battle -- a giant ch with all of the trenches and artillery and poison gas and aircraft. the

exploiting the holocaust in both america and in britain so in one thousand seven hundred i mean america jimmy carter exploited the holocaust in order to win situation but now the brits and there are allegations that jeremy corbin is anti semitic let me say this peter any on its person in british politics will tell you this even if you don't like any of jeremy corbin spheres and you're his policies the one thing you can never achieve is being right. just there why because there is not one racist bone in his body because he has dedicated his entire political career so fighting racism included and semitism so these charges against jerry corbin a human being and he said makes it a completely unsound it's what they are about is to try and overthrow in mesley just a label because he is and seek life its isolation leads war he's pro palestinian and by overflowing and the whole truth is that blairism will be resurrected ok martin marcus marcus to what degree is it you said pro palestinian so facto that means he's not a strong supporter of israel and its policies in the region i presume i suppose that's the

and i didn't appreciate in the jimmy carter days. i thought it was very ineffective. ronald reagan came in it with policies. and he let the america do its thing. he let the lumted government and focus on the private sector and reducing taxes and talking about and reducing regulations and trying to put more money into the pockets of families and of workers and of people. that's what drive its the economy. look at today. we did a number of stimulus packages done under the obama administration and the economy did not pick up. the former congress and the president did the tax cut and we truly have a booming economy that is very favorable to many people throughout the district. just a note about the district. one of the reasons i think they saw in me someone to carry their voice to washington was i completely understand their frustrations. the people in the ninth, what's so great about their district, we have the best people we have the people in the ninth congressional in pennsylvania that built america, love america, but are frustrated with the government. they feel as i

bush lost and jimmy carter lost. both of them had primary challenges before their campaign. gerald ford had a primary challenge in 1976. has the biggest megaphone. he has access to millions of people on cable television whenever he wants. democratic candidates are speaking to smaller slivers of voters. of the early states, the expectation is that at most, there will be 250 or 300,000 people participating in the iowa caucus. you are talking about a small slice of the country that the candidates are holding their message to. president trump can spend his time trying to talk to everyone. >> the other thing he has going for him is the economy. dotainly, democrats can and say on the campaign trial that there is rising income inequality. all that is true but president trump can point to some strong numbers in terms of joblessness and he is doing that, which increases the power of the incumbency. when it comes to democrats, no one has gone negative yet. that probably cannot hold. i will be waiting and watching what happens when and if they start picking at each other to whatever de

exploiting the holocaust in both america and in britain so in one thousand seven hundred i mean america jimmy carter exploited the holocaust in order to win the jewish vote now and grits and there are allegations that jeremy corbyn is anti semitic let me say this hate or any in on ists person in british politics will tell you this even if you don't like any of jeremy corbin's views and you're his policies the one thing you can never accuse him of is been racist white because there is not one racist bone in his body because he has dedicated his entire political career so fighting racism including and semitism so these charges against jerry corbin a human being and he submitted a completely unsound it's what they are about is to try and overthrow the in mislead if the later because he is an secret of its isolation he's at receive war he's pro palestinian and by overflowing him the whole truth is that blairism will be resurrected talk in itself after that means he's not a strong supporter of israel and its policies in the region i presume i suppose that's the cudgel that the his opposition wants to use

h w bush lost, jimmy carter lost. both of them had primary challenges before the reelection campaign but if you look at presidents who were unchallenged in a primary, you have to go back a long time to find someone who didn't win reelection. had a primary challenge in 1976 and ronald reagan social. -- too. donald trump can spend the next year raising lots of money. he has the biggest megaphone. millions ofs to people on cable television whenever he wants. the democratic candidates are really speak smaller slivers of voters. democratic primary voters in early states, the expectation is there will be 250,000 or 300,000 people participating in the iowa caucus. you are really talking about a small slice of the country that these candidates are honing your message to, or president trump can spend his time trying to talk to everyone. host: the other thing -- elana: the other thing he has going for him is the economy. democrats tout rising income inequality and the dollar doesn't go as far as it did and that is true, but pre

you'll find it and since nine hundred seventy one since jimmy carter this is been some really trust uses the veto power things like. rights for women rights for children things like that that the u.s. is abused and vetoed so in terms of its own reputation it's obviously it's getting worse we can't get much worse than it already is and but i think trump is probably the move blyton's out of all of the previous presidents in terms of his gangster policies towards the rest of the world. i actually would just look at the the declarations against members of the i.c.c. in the last couple of weeks where the u.s. administration has actually threatened members of the international criminal court if they start investigating in u.s. war crimes in places like afghanistan and so more and more it's looking like against the site so you know it. has its obvious ally with israel ok for now another mike ready coeditor of a b s news thanks for sharing your thoughts with us on i'll say the same thing. next to american women have launched an initiative to help people on the japanese island of okinawa have bee

i did not appreciate what was going on in the jimmy carter days. i thought it was very ineffective and i didn't think there was any leadership. ronald reagan came in with confidence and policies and he let the america do its thing. he let limited government and focused on the private sector and reducing taxes, talking about and reducing regulations, and trying to put more money into the pockets of families and workers, and of people. that is what drives the economy. look at today. there were a number of stimulus packages done six years ago under the obama administration and the economy did not pick up. the former congress and the president did the tax-cut and we truly have a booming economy that is very favorable to very many people throughout the ninth congressional district. just a note about the ninth congressional district, one of the reasons i think they saw in me someone who could carry their voice to washington. they saw in me someone who could carry their voice to washington is because i understood their frustrations. people say that in our
