rick scott, apparently, did not get the memo.es. because rick scott is not a fan of thinking, he has given the republicans a single stupidest platform anyone has ever put in writing. including massive tax increases on most americans, including senior citizens living on social security, and nonsense like, quote, finish building the wall and name it after president donald trump. rick scott told politico, i am doing it because i'm a business guy and i believe in plants. joining us now is david love, former campaign manager under the white house for barack obama, and also jennifer reuben they are both political analysts. dave it does not look like something that the republicans should be running. on should democrats be using this to run against republicans? >> you have to, lawrence. it's political malpractice. but it's what he had most republicans today believe. i learned that political arguments have to be believable. let's go back to 2012 between mitt romney and paul ryan going around the country accusing obama of trying to -- medi

it is really anyone's guess, since rick scott also promises republicans will immediately cut the irs funding and workforce by 50%. elsewhere in his 11 point plan, senator scott remains committed to donald trump's big lie, dedicating an entire section two elections, with the demand that quote, ballots can only be submitted to a polling location by a voter or the post office. no ballots that show up after election day will be counted, ever. it is unclear if scott understands how this would affect american service members, many of them voting republicans, or diplomats working overseas. an inconvenient detail. and then there is scott's declaration, that men are men, women are women, and unborn babies are babies. we believe in science. apparently scott believes so much and signs that he goes on to say, men and women are biologically different because he, as a god, created them. to that and he offers a federal policy to reaffirm this religiously scientific view of the american family. even though many single moms heroically do the job of raising a family, as my mom often had to, children ne

i think rick scott wants to be a president at some point.e parlance of republicans and there you have rick scott giving a real-life commercial, campaign ad. >> it's geo policies for the last five years. >> it's a base play. border wall. there are two genders. let's say the pledge of allegiance in schools. all americans should pay some income tax. if you want to defend it, defend it. now he's denying what's in his own plan. that's a tax hike. republicans are running on a tax hike in the mid-term election year. >> don't believe your eyes. when he was talking about -- to nia's point, talking about his record as governor, that doesn't sound like someone who is the head of the republican party but someone setting himself for something beyond the 2022 midterm elections. >> the wind is in the democrats' face. the history, despite great economic numbers of the inflation. it's a gift to the democrats to say this leading republican senator, runs the senatorial committee, this is his plan and it would raise many of your taxes. jen psaki just released a

i think it's funny because rick scott looms large, he always has, in this conversation.nd for national rick scott committee. i think rick scott was trying to strike a pretty good balance between having it appear that the party was solely donald trump's. because certainly, that is going to be a liability for them in these tight states like north carolina where they need to win. to get a majority in the senate. i asked trump about this, actual -- rick scott spoke to "meet the press" after january 6. he said the republican party isn't donald trump's party, it's the voters' party, it's the people's party. when i proposed that to trump writing my book, do you agree with that, it's the people's party? he paused for a second and said, yeah, but the people like me the best, i think generally, that's still true. >> jeremy peters with lots to cover in the gop. great to see you. >>> so, earlier in the show if you've been with us, we asked why are you awake, way too early this graphic design stuff before my toddler wakes up. i totally feel that. sometimes early mornings are the best

senator rick scott with his own set of answers with a new blueprint for what a g.o.p. look like. if republicans take back congress in november. for example on the issue of crime scott is calling for nationwide crackdown on theft and violent crimes, an immigration, under scott's plan, he will finish the wall, make immigrants ineligible to collect unemployment or welfare for the first seven years after arriving in the u.s. on voter integrity, the plan calls for a total ban on harvesting. and yes, would support things like we have been talking about, voter i.d., signature verification, et cetera. here to explain that and much more though the senator, rick scott. and i know there is diversion of this kevin mccarthy is working on as well in the house and i would like to see the senate. perhaps you can put this together for your fellow g.o.p. senators and candidates. i would like to see the house and senate come together on these issues, make these promises to the american people, get elected and then fulfill those promises. doable? >> absolutely. here is what we've got to d

rick scott is saying they should.ight. >> chucky schumer saying your plan is to raise taxes on more than half of americans. i didn't see that in your plan. did you have that in your plan? was it in the invisible copy i got? . >> no. chuck schumer, who wants to raise taxes for everything. when i was governor i cut taxes and fees 100 times. we're the opposite. but chuck schumer, he is all in to take every dime you have. and think about it. he's responsible for where this country is right now, his bad acts. >> the important part was the beginning when he didn't own where he wants every american to pay some income tax who don't. >>> did he not bother to read his own damn plan? it's not particularly hidden. they didn't do the actual math that that means raising taxes for people, like half of americans, working-class folks, retirees, other. don't lie. on the other hand, the impulse is always to lie now because they learned it from dad. . >> if you support it, make the case about it. explain why you think everyone should hav

. >> let's talk about the influence on 2022 because we've heard from senator rick scott, whose job ithe senate, that the issues will be crime, inflation, the cost of gas, not the 2020 election. but, of course, former president trump wants to drag the party there. is this different than what we watched for the last six years that trump will lead the base and that will be the major issue that he'll run on? >> well, i think exhibit a is the virginia governors race where glenn youngkin ran on those issues but kept trump at arm's length and won going away in a typically democratic state. so that's the model. that's the model republicans can be successful. the question is, and i think it probably will be in 2022. there's a lot of things on voters' minds, including inflation and covid. but that resurgence is diminishing now. maybe will be helpful in 2024. but it's difficult for democrats in 2022. historically and just because of the landscape. but trump only makes it more difficult for republicans, not better. >> yeah, but mark, let's remember that there are all these trump acolytes who are

they are out with a new podcast that will be hosted by the chairman, senator rick scott.this isn't typical campaign arms. they don't typically have podcasts. the first guest will be donald trump and that interview will be released lace this week. the thing i think is really interesting here is, of course, you know, a lot of republicans still see donald trump as their rain maker. he's a donor lure. so it is a benefit to having him on the podcast but it also comes at a time when trump's popularity is sagging. there's been multiple polls looking at that. he's obviously facing a lot of heat with the january 6th investigation and, of course, after that very controversial speech where he talked about potentially pardoning january 6th rioters. so it does offer him a little bit of legitimacy. at the same time we also know that he is not on good terms with senate majority leader mitch mcconnell, and that's why i always think the choice to have donald trump on a senate republican campaign arm podcast as the first guest is quite interesting, particularly as we continue to see the fe

the chair of the nrc, national republican senatorial committee rick scott said my goal for trump, notan win a general election. there is a real risk here that gritens could not win but trump may endorse him. >> he may. you kind of giggled when you said he doesn't want to back a loser, it is something that's important for trump for his own reputation and legacy, it's important, it's not about the party at the end of the day but he takes these things very seriously. with the case of georgia it was interesting because you had grudge wars taking place where the former president was trying to push these grudge wars, you know, bigger picture missouri is a little bit of a different scenario, but at the end of the day he's also sort of trying to support his underlying arguments with this notion that the 2020 election was illegitimate, that he was sort of duped out of winning the race. that seems to be waning with a lot of his supporters as well. so at the end of the day if president trump is not going to get into substantive issues and is going to base a lot of his endorsements mainly on grud

rick scott pointed to his pardons that he gave out while he was governor and said it should be done onaid he didn't think much of what donald trump said. things he says at a rally, neither here nor there. he said he was the v.mike pens at that time could have overturned the election results back on january 6th and it was clear he did not have the ability to do so and everyone on capitol hill said that and even after donald trump made his remarks over the weekend that pence could have done that. very few took issue with that. >> don't want to talk about it at all. thank you very much. mike pence standing up for his constitutional duty saying that's what he did. >> joining me now the former congresswoman from utah, mia love. i'm checking the date, january 31st, 2022 and this is still what's happening. what's your reaction when you hear that this is still happening, that there are just still people who can't say something very basic, like, sorry, that's not okay? they just can't say it? >> well, this is classic, first of all, for former president donald trump. it's lather, rinse and repea
