for more on this we're joined tonight by larry cohen board chair of our revolution larry nice to have you with us always you heard the wall street story now the main street story does the reality meet their match the rhetoric in this case is donald trump friendly to wage earners not yet there is no reality in terms of improving wages workers' rights his nominees for the national labor relations board or atrocious i'd say expected but atrocious. the trade realities what we saw on monday when they released their you objectives for nafta much the same is that the p.p. we can still be hopeful that something will be improve there but there's nothing concrete for the guy with a lunch bucket so how does nafta play into this this week's theme of make it in america week. yeah well not so well and again as bart said it's not just republicans and not just the president last weekend our revolution we sponsored a demonstration in front of the national governors association chaired by terry mcauliffe a democrat and they had only pro nafta speakers pierre trudeau and hundreds of corporate lobbyists

eighteen so why does it feel like democrats are squandering their big opportunity joining me now is larry cohen or chair of our evolution board chair of the democracy initiative larry welcome back pleasure great having you with us so the story that prompted my latest what the hell are they doing is this. bloomberg story that the d triple c. is trying to recruit blue dogs and it's like. you know i get it that there are blue dog democrats in the democratic party and i'm not and in and perhaps in some places in the country that's the entirely right and appropriate thing i do. we could that could be argued and it's debatable but i really don't think that america's sitting around going we really need a chain c.p.i. exactly yeah so i think that. part of it may be wishful thinking part of it may be just plain wrong because unless we're only talking about suburban districts that have republicans and there are some working class people are fed up with that few and whether they're independents now or some of them a few of them strayed into republican territory many of them just turned off and gave up and

than they are right now where democrats still shying away from embracing progress is out right larry cohen revolution in just a mall.
