his former chief of staff when he was in the mayor's office, senator michael bennett said he is consideringsident. also interesting to note one thing that hickenlooper didn't mention in the interview is marijuana which is probably the thing that he is best known for outside of the state of colorado. he voted against it or campaigned against it initially but then became the reluctant champion for the legal system in colorado. >> making a lot of tax revenue there. >>> another round of controversial comments by freshman congresswoman sparking back lash under fire after she criticized america's relationship with israel. the minnesota democrat said i want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is okay for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country. a top democrat is demanding an apology for that comment. tell us what lawmakers are saying today about this. are you seeing similar outrage to previous remarks? >> very similar outrage. many are not happy. they are calling the latest round of comments deeply offensive and many are calling for her to apologize for th

. >> colorado democrat michael bennett picked apart the president's language on the issue. >> your president is saying he needs a national emergency to build a wall? it is preposterous. it is a joke. >> democrats appear to be enjoying forcing president trump to use his veto power for the first time, shep. >> shepard: the president billed today's vote in stark terms. a vote with him is a vote for border security. a vote against him was a vote against border security. the truth is both sides they want border security but they disagree on how to best accomplish the goal. further, of course, this issue of the emergency declaration itself is front and center as outlined in the constitution, there's a separation of powers in america. the house of representatives is granted the power of the purse strings. democrats insist the president's emergency is no emergency at all but an attempt to build the wall for which the funding was denied? john roberts live on the north lawn. john? >> good afternoon, shep. the president and the white house were twisting arms hard trying to stem the bleeding here. it's

joe biden in just a matter of time michael bennett basically said he wants to run.degree vel has run before. we got word last night that terry mccaw live looking for and more likely to run. seth moulton could run. eric swalwell frequently on our air. this isn't just people who we'll put them on the long list, i would say, a half to two-thirds of these people will run. we would have to move them to the previous graphic at which point you're looking at 16 to 20 credible, serious announced candidates which would make it the largest field in the history of either sides presidential primary process. >> i'm already thinking about the debate stages and how you're going to fit everyone in and all of that and -- >> it's a good time to be in the podium making business. >> exactly. who can really take on donald trump? that's the key question. >> there's lots of options. that's one good thing. it's good that a lot of people want to run. you have a lot of options. you're going to have so many you can choose from like baskin robbins. >> you can't just pick one. >>> how about this

. >>> michael bennett talking about his 2020 plans. >> i'm very inclined to do it, and we're looking the american pope need somebody who is going to run and tell them the truth in 2020. >> your decision, i understand, has absolutely nothing to do with whether joe biden gets in the race or not, is that true? >> it has absolutely nothing to do with the vice president's decision. k great in our new house. ahh, new house, eh? well, you should definitely see how geico could help you save on homeowners insurance. nice tip. i'll give you two bucks for the chair. two?! that's a victorian antique! all right, how much for the recliner, then? wait wait... how did that get out here? that is definitely not for sale! is this a yard sale? if it's in the yard then it's... for sale. oh, here we go. geico. it's easy to switch and save on homeowners and renters insurance. you're smart,eat you already knew that. but it's also great for finding the perfect used car. you'll see what a fair price is and you can connect with a truecar certified dealer. now you're even smarter. this is truecar. ♪ ♪ t-mobile

keep an eye on michael bennett, senator from colorado and at least four others who are thinking about reordering of the race. no one has really seized control or command in the first quarter. the second one starts this week. keep an eye on joe biden and others. no one seems to be scaring anyone else out of the race. >> jeff zeleny earning those air miles and hotel points. >> what i'm going to be watching for is nato week in washington. secretary generalian sul ten berg is here to mark the 70th anniversary of that alliance, meeting with president trump later this week and delivering an address to congress. what this visit will do is highlight the long-running tensions the president has with nato. obviously he's complained a lot that other countries in the alliance aren't paying their share of defense spending. this is a complaint he has conveyed several times. he actually relayed it again in a private lunch with republican senators earlier this week on capitol hill. during that lunch he also complained about nato's headquarters and it's all bust. >> that's it for "inside politics." aga

michael bennett will not be supporting the green new deal. they will be supporting climate change. this thing called medicare exit that they are supporting, universal healthcare, not medicare for all. david: the point is right now the number two person in all the polls behind biden is bernie sanders. he's the self-admitted socialist. i mean, i'm just wondering if they've gone so far the socialists in the party and other people who have been patting them on the back and supporting the green deal, etc., that it's impossible. the genie is out of the bottle. i mean, that's it. >> but i think robert you are saying something that i think makes a ton of sense in the general election, but the primaries are a completely different beast. and the green new deal wing owns the primaries. you know they do because sanders owned it. >> brian i get called every day by reporters who am i backing? i struggle with that exact question. who is someone that's going to be great in the general that can get through a democratic primary. it is a tough question. but it's early on. it's early. >> here's someth

. >> you know, your colleague, michael bennett, was in iowa the other day and one of the things he saidbe progressive unless you produce progress, and it was a really good point, which is that you have to build consensus and embrace compromise so you can move progress forward. i thought when i saw that about the affordable care act. i thought about the financial reform that you were so instrumental in, both imperfect pieces of legislation but there were people who said to president obama, do not sign the affordable care act unless there's a public option. isn't that an important lesson that people need to embrace? you may not get the wealth tax but you may get something that will move progress forward. >> you know, look, there are always judgment calls in this. you don't have to have perfection, but you also have to pay attention to where the people are. the wealth tax, for example, man, you walk around the halls of congress and it's like i think that's just unbelievable to think about. go out and talk to the american people about it. it's not only that democrats like it, that independe

it was drawn as michael bennett from colorado said, from mitt romney's plan in massachusetts.there is ant lot of wiggle room to the right of some master nservatives. and the fact is donald trump and the republicans havachieved almost the impossible. they have made the affordable care act, obamacare, which ina know drives trump around the bend when he hears obamacare used, but they've de it popular for the first time. the majority of americans have a favorable attitude toward the affordable care act, who never had it once itawas pssed during the obama years. so, to me, this is beyond -- politically -- ethically, it's not worse than attacking john mccain seven months dead, but politically it's worse and these are two major missteps by donald trump, ti formed litical genius. >> woodruff: you do have some republicans pointing to demoats talking aght about medicare for all and say that's socialism,h-ha. they're talking socialism, we want to let you keep your doctor. >> i think the docrats are making a terrible mistake if it's medicare for all. the stick trice to hae increased tax b

. >> so here with me now kate bennett, also michael d'antonio, the author of "the truth about trump."ood evening to both of you. according to this book excerpt ivanka and jared are they the moderating influence on this president as they are often portrayed? >> that has been sort of the underlying vibe i guess and it may actually be true because quite frankly they're still there. this is power couple inside the west wing and through all the tumultuous turnover, the back stabbing, the chaotic nature of staffing issues we've seen over the past two years. ivanka trump and jared kushner have had to most staying power, the most flurchs, and quite frankly the vast portfolios of anyone closest to the president. so i think that says a lot about their influence on the president, the family connection and that weird sort of gray area where those two things merge and connect. he feels comfortable with them. they feel comfortable speaking to him. and i think that that therein lies their sticking power. >> michael, vicky ward writes over the past few years the president has wanted to on and off get

and your senator, michael bennett, is right now campaigning in iowa, probably in a living room, you know, gesticulating about the federal shutdown. so talk to me a little bit about whether or not you would like to weigh in on the -- you know, whether you expect at all to weigh in on the presidential primary and what do you see as their chances. >> well, michael and john are good friends. and, you know, it would be amazing could have a president from colorado. obviously neither one is running yet. so -- and i have other friends running. my good friend john delaney is running who i served with in the house for a number of years. so, you know -- you know, i don't know who is running and not running at this point. there's a lot of folks on the sidelines. but obviously from the colorado perspective, we love to highlight our great state. >> so there are a lot of democrats who -- we have got the whole spectrum now, particularly with bernie sanders who announced this week. somebody like him, who is a democratic socialist fire brand all the way to amy klobuchar, where i nearly froze to death at h

you have michael ben met from colorado, steve bennett and so the question is can any of that group ofvoices going in the other direction. >> moderate democrats were the ones who were able to flip rab seats like people like orange county. but you have these modern democrats who aren't an eng day andered spees eed but they're behaving like they're the because it always easier to argue m the from spbt as o po to people who say, listen, we have this huge and broad cy -- to mae it more available to the greatest number of people. it's not to preach fire and brimstone against and -- >> to pick up on that, there's such a difference in the memories and perceptions of what socialism means. is the democratic party really grappling with that? i mean, it seems to me like most millennials and people that i know, when you say socialism, they think sweden and denmark. that sounds pretty nice. it's a democracy with traditional benefits where you have a comfortable life. they don't think about venezuela or the nazis and all the things that happened preechl in the century. >> no question about it. the w
