the other problem is we're being honest with each other here, bernie sanders' programs didn't work. they were nice ideas but if you put pen it paper, they didn't work. >> i think unger is playing up to the crowd here. >> perhaps the biggest reason that hillary clinton lost is she did not recreate the obama coalition. >> right. >> and black and other minority voters did not turn out in the numbers they had for president obama twice. and i actually, i remember going to a bernie sanders rally at the fox theater in atlanta, and he was in a southern swing trying to appeal to black voters. the crowd was overwhelmingly white. he really packed the place. when he walked out, they stood up and they remained standing for the 1:14 that he spoke. they stood the whole time. but there weren't that many black voters there. i felt i could speak to every one of them there, which i did, and they were all young and all told me they kept trying to convince their parent to vote for bernie. and -- >> wow. >> they said, i just can't do it. just with clinton. just won't leave clinton. it is because of bill.

bernie sanders' programs didn't work.y were nice ideas, but if you actually put pen to paper they didn't work.

joining us is vermont senator bernie sanders.ator sanders, thank you for being with us tonight, nice to see you. >> good to see you. >> what is the status of obamacarand if it gets to the house what happens to it? >> i don't understand why you bring it up to lose. they're going to have a different set of circumstances in the senate and our job is to do everything that we can to explain to the american people in kentucky, in west virginia, in arizona, in nevada, and all of these so-called red states what a disaster this plan would be to their lives. to explain to them that donald trump and many of them voted for trump lied to them when he said he was going to protect the interests of working people. you don't throw 24 million people off of health insurance, you don't tell seniors their premiums are going to soar, you don't cut medicaid which not only will impact low income people but it will impact middle income people whose parents are in nursing homes. you don't cut medicaid by almost $900 billion and by the way in the midst of

the juniorg of senator from vermont, bernie sanders. during the course of his presidential campaign, i heard schoolny how his old jewish-inflected accent reminded people of an uncle, a grandfather, a passionate voice that imparted lessons and would challenges.gh lesso it is what he was saying that recalled an earlier generation in my family. his advocacy for the rights and the dignity of working people reminded me of my parents and my uncle, all union and labor lawyers. they work and fought for an america that would live up to the promise of a land of freedom and justice for all citizens and they were clearheaded about the challenges they faced. they refuse to give up. those where their values and their tradition. , too.our tradition they have formed the backbone of the senator's support for byael, a country founded progressive dreamers who wanted a social democracy and they have to support a two-state solution. clear thatders made the future of israelis and palestinians are intertwined. peace needs to meet security for every israeli an

it is senator sanders' tradition, and our tradition task. those same values have formed the backbone of the senator's strong support for israel, a country founded by progressive dreamers hoping to build a social democracy. and they have driven him to provide strong support for u.s. leadership towards the two-state solution. during his campaign, senator sanders made clear that the futures of israelis and palestinians are intertwined. he said in one speech, peace has to mean security for every israeli from violence and terrorism. but peace also has to mean security for every palestinian. [applause] it means achieving self-determination, civil rights, and economic well-being nor palestinian people. [applause] along with secretary clinton, senator sanders helped establish a new standard for informed and helpful discourse and israel and the democratic party at the candidates show that politics can win support from pro-israel voter biz touting the importance of tough diplomacy, serious compromise and progress towards peace. in this difficult new e

senator bernie sanders was doing a town hall in southern west virginia, a place where a lot of people went for donald trump. they talked health care, education, jobs, and many of the concerns of rural americans which we are told often don't make the national discussion. senator sanders weighing in on that republican bill we were just discussing to replace obamacare. >> what really bothers me is that when you look at the republican bill, it should not be seen as a health care bill, because throwing millions of people off of health care is not health care legislation. what it should be seen as is a huge tax break for the wealthiest people in this country. >> you can see this entire special town hall tomorrow 8:00 p.m. eastern. and msnbc anchor chris hayes special all in america, bernie sanders in trump country, i'm excited to watch it myself. a special thank you to a very busy man, anchor chris hayes, who is in welch, west virginia, and agreed to join us here on "the point" and tell us about what just happened. what did you learn? >> thank you for having me, first of all. it was fascina

does that go towards bernie sanders and elizabeth warren? does it go more centrist? seems like it's going that way. >> on economic issues, a strong, bold economic plan, we will have bernie sanders onboard. we will be united on the strong economic message. that's number one reason we lost in 2016. we didn't have it. i blame myself and everybody else. >> bret: does neil gorsuch get in? >> i have some doubts. i think he's been a judge who favored the wealthy economic interests over the middle class. >> bret: are you still going to push to stop neil gorsuch? >> not a single democrat has come out for him. most have not come out against him. people are waiting for the hearing. >> bret: are you worried the nuclear option is going to be used? >> i hope not. harry reid, when he changed the rules, did not do the supreme court at my suggestion. i said it's an important position. i said cabinet too but he didn't listen to me. it's so important, you should get 60 votes. >> bret: you've known donald trump for a long time. he recalled how he helped democrats. despite the politics a

rand paul was pointing out bernie the sanders effective rate is so the low balls bernie sanders takes advantage of a lot of deductions that bernie sanders wants to cap for the upper brackets. he doesn't practice what he preaches in his own tax returns. >> we've seen the left reluctant to choose their battles. they've been attacking this president on everything. does this put the tax issue to rest or will they continue to go after him? >> no, i don't think it will. they're going to keep going. like i was saying, to me there's something really deck ka dent about that. what i mean by that, right now in america you've got a really big crisis. you've got an academic crisis across the country. not across washington, d.c. and among the media and political establishment but you have people desperate for a job. social crisis, opioid crisis. it seems bad that the media establishment are just obsessed with chitchat around this kind of stuff when there's such big problems to solve. >> that's a great point. >> i want to go to this tweet: december's should return focus to trump care and not get dis

will it be, should it be, from your perspective, secretary clinton or senator sanders? do you believe that the african american community has a good choice in one or the other? - well full disclosure i can't answer without bias because i'm friends with president clinton. - i understand. - i know them much better. - but i think. - than i know the obamas - you can also stand back and say, if the african american community ends up with senator sanders who has been criticized over time, for not having enough of a weigh into the black community, right? are you comfortable with one or the other? - well i'm more comfortable with hilary clinton but i think that senator sanders, i just don't see how we can have free tuition for everybody. economically, his positions, while they appeal to my heart, i don't understand how we can. - they bonk up there. - yeah, i don't see how we can write the cheque. - so you're a pragmatist? - yeah - in the end on this. - yeah i'm very pragmatic but i love the things that he says and i think that he's been very valuable in pushing hilary to the le

[laughter] >> respectfully to senator sanders, we are already a grassroots party.e that we should be and we are a grassroots party that focuses on making sure that we can help people reach the middle class. dagen: so how are democrats going to win back anything if they can't even agree on the state of their party? let me ask juan williams, fox news political analyst and a columnist for the hill. juan, there's nothing grassroots about the party that debbie wasserman schultz was running where they stacked the deck against bernie sanders and were all in on hillary clinton, a candidate who everybody -- even democrats -- knew couldn't win. >> we have to define grassroots, because in american politics today, it's the anti-establishment type of populism, right? yes, indeed. everybody wants that because he's the winner, he's the president, right? but for the democrats, you've got to isolate it, and i think what you come down to is people who voted for president obama who then switched and votes for president trump. they're democrats, often in key states -- wisconsin comes

with health care. >> no, no, don't put me on the same as bernie sanders. bernie sanders wants all health care to be a right. that's not what i said. i said for chronic illness and catastrophic illness, yes, but the-- >> the most expense stiff part of health care you want government to be a part of, but you're willing to say taxes should come down. i guess, it's that conservative viewpoint where if you lower taxes let people keep more money and the economy will grow. >> i'll disagree with you, eric. i'm taking the entrepreneurial viewpoint. what i'm saying there's a lot of new technology coming out and a lot is changing, so in the past we looked at insurance companies to be the intermediary and handle it for us. they had their own goals. we're going to a new age where there can be a conservative government effort to be a lot more efficient to implement technology so we can be as a government more effective. >> mark, i have a couple of minutes quickly. can we talk about the wire taps, this is has been blowing up. >> sure. >> where do we stand? is there an ab

amy: bernie sanders is part of the leadership. are you saying the leadership might endorse a medicare for a proposal yet though what does a public should proposal mean? >> the way the leadership can be brought to endorse single-payer is by us, the constituents. calling them up, pressuring them and all the ways that we have sent we want single-payer. that is what will bring the full democratic leadership around. public option? public option would be a small step that would ease some of the pain. it would mean when you are on the exchange buying things, one of your options would be to pay money and buy into medicare. most americans do not get their care through the exchange. the public option really does not generate those massive administrative savings that we need in order to be able to afford health care for everyone. ,my: dr. steffie woolhandler thank you for joining us woolhandler, a professor at , cuny-hunter college and a primary care physician. she is a lecturer at harvard medical school, and the co-founder of physicians for

bernie sanders tries to perpetuate that saying it's not right.ax you because you have been successful forgetting that you work to be successful. >> and those that don't go for the guilt trip, they turn to the pitchfork. i have a friend of mine that came here from china. they had nothing. he's very rich. they own two million square feet of real estate in new york. i said how did you make it? he said the first million was the hardest. a lot of people think that once you've made $1 million, $2 million, it's easy. it's very difficult. you have more and more responsibility. you have coat tails. nobody does this in isolation. nobody is rewarded in isolation either. the one thing about capitollism that doesn't get enough. when you see someone on a pedestal, rich and successful, you know there's a lot of people under them that are doing very, very well. i think we need to start promoting that. bernie is riding this populism wave, if you will. with respect to breaking down or attacking the foundation of what made us the most successful country in the worl

but is senator bernie sanders right?the top and come down and if so, how do you do that? >> first, let me just say i'm not sure why the chair of either national political party asking for staff resignations is news because it's a pretty routine practice. it is important for each chair to be able to, you know, shuffle the footprint and make sure that they analyze their staffing needs. that's all that this was. >> what about what senator bernie sanders says. what's going on with the democratic party or what should go on? >>ry inspeespectfully to senato sanders, we are already a grassrootsparty. if we were not, we would not have been abl to bring down the absolutely abhorrent health care repeal bill that would have knocked over 24 million peoples over ten years off of their health care, that would have increased health costs for people, increased prescription drug prices. >> so he's wrong? >> no. it's actually more like semantics. we all agree that we should be and we are a grassroots party that focuses on making sure that

so bernie sanders figure two sides of the coin. bernie sanders attracted a massive support level from young people under 30. in some states he was getting ev 2% of the vote. you're like how do you do that, that's like a north korea turnout level.level. and there is a reason for it. the reason is because young people grew up marinated in the technology. they know where we are headed and that their job prospects are limited and they will spend then huge fortune on education and they will have a hard time paying for it and getting a job. this is a reality that can't be denied. they will be forced into an economy where they will drive cars and print out the backroom of their apartment and they realized there's no way you're b going to get sufficient benefit, education or possibilities out of this. when so, when bernie sanders came forward and offer to vision, they said yes. that sounds really good. i would like to re-create a hellhole like denmark. [laughter] to experience the horrors of norway. [laughter] is a very appealing message a

trump was right about the primary being stolen from bernie sanders. and he was right that the stuff wikileaks was putting out was all true. it may have been taken in ways we object to. but has any of it been dispute as being accurate? no, it's all true. judge jeanine: what took donna brazile 8 months to come clean on this after lying with all these ridiculous excuses? what happened that she -- she didn't really apologize. she basically says best she says sending those emails was a mistake that i will forever regret. but she doesn't say i apologize. why did she do it? >> well, she did it originally to help hillary. and why she is telling you the truth now. there is quite a history of suddenly getting the truth from both media and i suppose in this case democratic operatives after the election is over. in one famous example, just before the 1996 election bill clinton had his ins working 24 hours a day pumping out new citizens. sp people are long records of conviction were being made citizens because they wanted them to vote democrat. they got more than

bernie sanders in 2014 paid 13%. five five paid 18.7%, the list bows on and on and on. the left is hypocritical here. >> they believe that everybody -- well, leona helmsley, taxes are for the little people according to socialists. they expect everybody else to pay. jason chaffetz in january filed a bill to deal with 100,000 federal civilian employees who owe more than one billion dollars in federal income taxes still working for the federal government and are simply not paying their taxes and never been held to account. this is a system that believes that all of the hard-working people in america are the ones who should pay for their free ride, for their beh homes, for their, not having to pay taxes. this is where politicians and federal government have lost the american people. stuart: got it, lizzie. liz: nine msnbc personalities had tax liens against them including al sharpton didn't pay taxes. got in trouble with the irs for not paying taxes. stuart: this is quite a story. completely changes the focus of politica

bernie sanders and donald trump are two sides of the same moment, not the same coin. bernie sanders attracted a massive support level from young people, people under 30 and in some states he was getting 82% of the vote from young people under 30 and you're like how do you do that. it's like north korea turnout level. there was a reason for its. of the reason is because young people grew up marinated in new technology and they know exactly where we are headed to do they that their job prospects are limited and they will spend a huge fortune on education and that they will have a hard time paying for an hard time getting a job. this is reality. they know they are being forced into a big economy where they will drive uber cars and rent out the back room of their apartment on air b&b and they realize there is no way to get sufficient benefits, educational or possibilities out of this. so, when bernie sanders came forward and offered their -- them a social democratic vision they said yeah, that sounds good. i would like to re-create a hellhole like denmark. like to experie

donald trump and bernie sanders. >> something is fundamentally wrong. >> this is "all in america."rom mcdowell county, west virginia. here is chris hayes. >> good be evening from mountain view high school where we've come for a show we are calling bernie sanders in trump country. all right. president trump of course did get 75% of the vote in the general election here in mcdowell county and he made a lot of promises to the people here. first and foremost, the return of jobs in the coal industry. this is also a place where obamacare has been a life line for many people, people who could lose access to coverage under the gop health care plan. tonight we're going to talk about all of that with members of this community as well as with senator bernie sanders who joins me now. [ cheers and applause ] >>> friendly crowd for you, senator. you and i talked -- you and i were in wisconsin. very different place in a lot of respects, but a place that voted for donald trump by a very thin margin. this place voted for donald trump by a very wide margin. why did you want to come to mcdowell count

that's why i'm also a big fan of bernie sanders.isagree with this or that about bernie sanders, but you know, he did what everyone thought it's not possible. he mobilized precisely those disappointed white workers who otherwise voted for trump. that's my, i think it is so again -- sorry, back to trump. my idea is that if democratic party remains what it is, this liberal establishment let's call it, even if we win over this trump there will be another trump. in europe we have the same problem, my god. the key problem today is this. this impotence, whatever you call it, of this, let's call it liberal left sector, whatever. this is the predominant force today. you know, all the big names and so on are very progressive about lbgt and so on. but you don't touch cal capitalism and so on. we have to do this. and i'm not talking about communism or whatever, and just a little bit of a towards the left in the sense of human rights, workers rights. if we don't do this, if we don't oez so ÑiÑion, doesn't matterÑiÑli if we get r this trump, anot

republican rand paul of kentucky and democratic bernie sanders of the vermont. and we will have plenty of political analysis of all the week's news, it is coming right up on "face the nation". >> >> dickerson: good morning and welcome to "face the nation". i am john dickerson. for the most part this past week president trump has been working behind the scenes to fulfill one of his biggest campaign promises, repealing and replacing obamacare. that left the public spotlight to house speaker paul ryan, who went as far as rolling up his sleeves and making his case with charts and graphs. when we sat down with the speaker yesterday, he told us he was excited about the reaction to the bill. >> dickerson: you have conservative governors and conservative members of the house and aarp, the american medical association, american hospital association, the health insurance lobby, all coming out against this. you are pleased with the reaction, the reaction has been awful. >> i wouldn't say the reaction has been awful. i think the reaction is, everybody wants to compare this

sanders: would my friend from texas yield for a question? mr. cornyn: i will not, not at this time. fortunately, we now have a president in the white house who clearly sees the failure of obamacare and wants to do something about it.

this is something that, well, bernie sanders has talked about a great deal.ant to turn to what bernie response was to last night, you can't call it the state of the union address, but that -- the speecech the presidt trump gate before e a joint sessioion of congrgress. sen. sanders: i urge president promises.p your tell the arican people, tweett to the amemerican people that yu will not cut social security, medicare, and medicaid. further, i did not hear president trump tonight mention the words "inincome and wealth inequalility" or the f fact thte now have the widest gap betweenn the vevery rich and everyone ele since the 1920's. i did not hear president t trump mention n the fact that as a result of the disastrousus citizens uninited supreme court decicision, fiveo four decisisi, we now h have a cororrupt campan finance systetethat is alallowig buy electctions and d undermine americican demomocracy. hocould you give a spepeech to ththe nation and not talk about that enormrmously important iss. furthehermore, not only to presesident trump not mention te issu

does that go towards bernie sanders and elizabeth warren? does it go more centrist? seems like it's going that way. >> on economic issues, a strong, bold economic plan, we will have bernie sanders onboard. we will be united on the strong economic message. that's number one reason we lost in 2016. we didn't have it. i blame myself and everybody else. >> bret: does neil gorsuch get in? >> i have some doubts. i think he's been a judge who favored the wealthy economic interests over the middle class. >> bret: are you still going to push to stop neil gorsuch? >> not a single democrat has come out for him. most have not come out against him. people are waiting for the hearing. >> bret: are you worried the nuclear option is going to be used? >> i hope not. harry reid, when he changed the rules, did not do the supreme court at my suggestion. i said it's an important position. i said cabinet too but he didn't listen to me. it's so important, you should get 60 votes. >> bret: you've known donald trump for a long time. he recalled how he helped democrats. despite the politics a

. >> yeah into they were, like, who was this guy with bernie sanders?that you did. >> yeah. >> trevor: the question is why? i mean, i understood at the time, but, i mean, why was that so important for you? >> i'm an american, and i love this constitution, i love this republic and the potential it stands for, and i bought the hype. when we're in grade school, they preach propaganda to you. when you buy it and believe it, it's quite a dream. i have been an activist since i was 15. my grandmother was a devoid democrat and worked with dr. king and tirelessly in elections. i have been working elections since i was six years old and have been mentored by people who were there. it is my responsibility as an african-american and an american to be a part of the political process. when i saw sanders tweet that one of the first things he would do is restore the voting rights act when he talked about decriminalizing marijuana, taking it off the scheduled list, which i thought our former president should do, because he's a black male and we get so caught up in law e
