convincing in general election so be interesting to see whoever wins a spot on whether it's senator sanders or senator harris whether or not they can reset their themselves and appeal to those important moderate voters come november amy do you agree with with michael's definition of what each candidate stands for and do you think that the democratic party is split into these 2 camps well we've seen that yes joe biden has talked a lot about civility you know his 6 terms as a united states senator his 8 years as a vice president that he puts a lot of stock and faith in 2 institutions congress the white house etc while elizabeth warren and warren rather she has positioned herself as the outsider the fighter the fighter with the plan he's going to you know take it to donald trump i think as michael points out however well that might be appealing in the democratic primary and that elizabeth warren she talks about you know revolutionary change we don't want just incremental changes we want to you know to rework the whole system the whole way that america works that might be appealing to the a.o.

biden could have difficulty in new hampshire, only because maureen and sanders -- warren and sandersenators from neighboring states. iden is 25 points ahead, he has to remain in that position into california. i misspoke. you should have corrected me. jeanne: you never misspeak! david: one of the things we saw last night, i'm curious about how this will foll through to the general and not just the primary. vice president biden was sticking out what would be a more moderate position, and defending that position from people on his left and right. is that something that he can win the primaries with and then take it to the general? jason: i don't think he has a choice. there is nothing joe biden can do that will really capture the hearts of bernie sanders' core base. to some extent the same with warren. from the beginning, the perception has been that biden's strength is this perception that he is best positioned to defeat donald trump, and why is that? the idea is that he is more moderate, that he can appeal more in the rust belt states with middle america. he has taken some more positi

well the big difference between joe biden and bernie sanders and elizabeth warren is the obvious one which is gender whether or not the country is having passed on the opportunity to elect the 1st female president of the united states they see and elizabeth warren somebody more comfortable with that shattering the hardest highest glass ceiling then they were with hillary clinton so we really can't lose sight that bernie sanders i think is more in line with the a o c squad version of america so does this cut into sanders base i think not i think that sanders more radical approach to governing and to his candidacy will appeal to younger voters and digital voters and social media voters in a way that perhaps a poll gauging warren and biden might miss we're not going to know these voters because they were busy in college classes when those poll of polls were coming in so i don't see it eating into sanders base as much as sanders is an outlier that's out there that may just come in and blow the whole thing up i'm interested in both your thoughts on defining some of these terms a little bi

well the big difference between joe biden and bernie sanders and elizabeth warren is the obvious one which is gender whether or not the country is having passed on the opportunity to elect the 1st female president of the united states they see and elizabeth warren somebody more comfortable with that shattering the hardest highest glass ceiling then they were with hillary clinton so we really can't lose sight that bernie sanders i think is more in line with the a o c squad version of america so does this cut into sanders base i think not i think that sanders more radical approach to governing and to his candidacy will appeal to younger voters and digital voters and social media voters in a way that perhaps a poll gauging warren and biden might miss we're not going to know these voters because they were busy in college classes when those poll holes were coming in so i don't see it eating into sanders base as much as sanders is an outlier that's out there that may just come in and blow the whole thing up i'm interested in both your thoughts on defining some of these terms a little bit b

, anyone who has ever covered bernie sanders or knows bernie sanders or watches bernie sanders knowst going to allow this to continue without a fight so at what point and what happens negatively or positively if he decides to go after elizabeth warren >> that's already been happening online the sanders campaign, you've had surrogates criticize the working family party's endorsement you've had many of them remind people of elizabeth warren's long and questionable relationship with native american communities in the united states. here's where bernie sanders is going to have difficulty there's no conspiracy here there's no hillary clinton this year there's no candidate that's received 30 years of sexism and whose ethics and things have been questioned. at the end of the day, if bernie sanders can't start winning some of these primaries as we go into next year, he's not going to be able to claim the system is rigged if he loses to three or four people. that's the big challenge he's going to have. i don't think this year -- and we saw this in some of the angry reactions to how the democr

caller: bernie sanders. he does not take corporate donations like joe biden or most of the rest of the field, or like all of the republican field. he is not holding to any corporations. it is all small grassroots stuff there, and small donors, and he believes, like i do, that we have to start investing in our general masses, not just the top 10 or 15%. everything has been going to them. we have to start investing in , andittle people here their health, their education, and their lives, and everybody's lives. host: thank you, ron. we will get a response. guest: well, let's unpack what ron said. first of all, let's get the record straight, most of the democrats running for the nomination have sworn off campaign contributions for corporate tax. that is a fact. let's start with trump. trump is underwater in new hampshire when you look at his overall popularity. he still remains strong with republicans, but he is underwater in this state. sanders,k about bernie because ron is a supporter. his strength in the stat

i think sanders rightly raises that.my: i want to turn to mattias lehman and ask about senator kamala harris who said she would do away with the senate filibuster in passing the green new deal. >> on the issue of this climate crisis, i'm going to tell you, i strongly believe this is a fight against powerful interest and leaders need to lead. so lead, follow, or get out the way and get out the way starting with donald trump. so, yeah, we need to work across the aisle. but i have been there now two years and someone's. and seeing no evidence of it. i kid you guys not. in our united states congress, i was part of a committee hearing during which the underlying premise of the hearing was to debate whether science should be the basis of pubublic policy. an existential threat to who we are as human beings. back to the united states -- congress come if they fail to act as the president of the united states, i am prepared to get rid of the filibuster, to pass a green new deal. amy:y: senator kamala harris at last night's climate

over and as promised, as soon as the event wrapped and senator sanders took photos, senator sanders followed by his wife jean walked over to the veteran to continue their conversation. and this really just shows what's at stake with this health care debate and what senator sanders who continues to hold smaller events, more intimate town halls allowing people to share intimate stories that they may not otherwise get the opportunity to share. >> annie, thank you. i want to bring my political analyst back in here. mark, what do you think? it shows the seriousness of health care. >> not only the seriousness of health care but a super emotional human moment out there that magnifies the issue but also gave sanders an opportunity to show some humanity which he doesn't do very often. he's the policy driven guy. he handled that the right way. gotcha. let's do this quietly and do it alone. he didn't try and, you know, take advantage of the moment for himself publically on television and took it away quietly which is a great moment for him. >> you hear people talking about polling. this is wha

emotions ran high at a sanders town hall in nevada. let's take a look and talk about it. >> now they're saying that i didn't resign or do something. >> i can't. i'm going kill myself. >> stop it. you're not going to kill yourself. >> i can't deal with it. i have hunting tons disease. do you know how hard it is? you don't, do you? i can't drive. i can barely take care of myself. >> all right. let's talk at the end of the meeting? >> okay. >> please, tell us mur about that moment. and what happened after. >> so that was in carson city, nevada. sanders first public event since the democratic debate last night houston. as you heard the end of the exchange he promised veteran he would follow up with him. and as promised as soon as it wrapped and sanders took photographs with whoever in the audience. he followed by his wife walked over to the veteran to continue the conversation. and this really just shows what's at stake with the healthcare debate. and what senator sanders who continues to hold smaller events more intimate town halls allowi

everybody was on the same level, barack obama and bernie sanders, the number one issue, bernie sanderslear winner. let's talk a few other winners. julian castro had a good night. there will be people in the democratic primary field who will say he wins too hard. he had to have a breakout moment. a lot of second-tier candidates -- >> is that breakout moment supposed to be something where people are arguing the point and saying it isn't right? >> you bring up a great point. none of us are talking about julian castro and time will tell how much that will affect him. if it continues to be a negative stroke it will end up being the campaign. heather: let's finish the winners and go to the losers. >> beto o'rourke, turning and thanking him, he flew home, took his campaign on hiatus for a few weeks to be back home and people give him props, that let him rise above the fray. he didn't do anything to damage himself because the spotlight was on him on an issue with all these folks who died in the shooting, an opportunity to make a name for himself when he hasn't had a breakout moment. rob: how d

sander van ocher rose to fame here at nbc.iving journalist to have taken part in that kennedy/nixon debate. he went on to cover the kennedy white house, became close with the family he interviewed bobby kennedy shortly before his assassination. he covered political conventions, the war in vietnam, the civil rights struggle, including a lengthy interview with dr. king. sandy vanokur had an old school writer's elegance, and it didn't hurt he could write like nobody's business. he was a network stable back when the networks were staples he was 91 years old. and that is our broadcast for this tuesday night thank you so much for being here with us, and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york >>> tonight on "all in" -- >> no, saudi arabia pays cash. >> as the president weighs starting a war on behalf of a saudi prince, bombshell new reporting from politico on big saudi spending at trump resorts. >> they spend $40 million, $50 million. am i supposed to dislike them? i like them very much. >> then -- >> this witness con

>> an senator bernie sanders tangled several times with joe biden and sanders highlighted his opposition to two obama administration legacies. >> there is a reason why, in the last 45 years, the average american today, despite an explosion of technology and worker productivity is not making a penny more than he or she made 45 years ago and one of the reasons why is that for decades, we have had disastrous trade policies. and i got to say, to my good friend joe biden, joe and i strongly disagree on trade. i helped lead the opposition. nafta and more, which cost this country over four million good-paying jobs. and what happened is people who have those jobs, ended up getting other jobs, making 50% of what they made in manufacturing. >> sanders went on to propose developing a trade policy that represents workers and farmers, where as biden said the root of the issue is actually not agriculture. >> at the table has to be labor, and at the table has to be environmentalists, the fact of the matter is, china, the problem isn't the trade deficit, the problem is they're stealing our intellectual

senator sanders did it in 2015. a very difficult thing to do generally. >> and especially he only had to have four people in this way. a lot tougher with 24. demolition derby. jeff weaver, thank you for coming on him about. >>> and let's go inside the spin room. let me start with this, i'm curious, earlier there was reporting that indicated that vice president joe biden use have no problem pushing back against somebody who has not enough experience. and a lot of people read it as biden is ready it take on elizabeth warren. is that what we're supposed to take away? >> no, of course not. there will be ten advocates sc the stage tonight and biden has the best record of achieving the pro progressive change and i think that you will hear him make that case. he will talk about talking about plans and getting things done. he worked get the affordable care act over the finish line, single progressive overall of the health care system in a generation. he wrote the violence against women apct. but he has a track record of get

bernie sanders and elizabeth warren, i don't know. have a serious stumble. he didn't have that kind of stumble in this debate. he is not going to put concerns about his age and maybe his quickness on his feet entirely to bed with this performance, but he is going to be able to continue on, and so going to be able to continue on, and so far nothing really has dented that 30- 35% so far nothing really has dented that 30— 35% support he has had. elizabeth warren again look sharp. i think what is going to be interesting to watch, going forward from here, is if the progressives decide to start settling around bernie sanders or elizabeth warren. is there one or another that they like more? and maybe this debate help to figure that out, maybe it didn't. but that's a dynamic that, if one of them start to really build—up momentum, they could catch biden in the polls. anthony zurcher, thank you so much for being with us. and by the way, anthony is a texan, and we are here in texas, so that analysis even more apt than usual tonight. joe biden st

bernie sanders calls himself democratic-socialist. i've spoken to people close to his campaign who said they don't like that label, it's not necessarily the best. we know it might seem silly to democrats, but a lot of is aboutn platforms calling them socialists. and it makes those democrat fears that seem weird but it's a good messaging point to get their base turned out, and potentially persuade independent voters who do not find the green new deal or medicare for all feasible. , this isia and daniel a story from the washington post, congressman kennedy announcing a primary challenge to senator ed markey. joe kennedy the third was two years old when ed markey was first elected to the house of representatives. wisely challenging him? guest: his argument is that it's time for new leadership. ed markey has been there for a long time and joe kennedy is one of these democrats that the party finds exciting. he sort of the next generation. they are not actually that different, issue wise. they are both in the same part of the political spec

there can be one progressive to joe biden, elizabeth warren or bernie sanders bernie sanders is a fighter and thinks he can stay in for the long haul. and when the candidates, when one concedes of the fact that this can be only one, this is highlander, they will have to go after each other and frankly, neither have shown interest in doing so, but if bernie sanders is the first to have that epiphany, i can see him going after elizabeth warren's record on her corporate attorney work, her past as a registered republican. all that stuff is really still uncharted territory for the democrats. >> then is it still anyone's game and clearly for bernie sanders, it's not a time to stand still, it's time to stand up or step out. and i want to look at history for a minute, because it amazes me from this poll, only 9% say they're decided, because let's look back. i think victoria mentioned it earlier, but in 2008, hillary clinton was leading by 18 points, rudy giuliani led by 4 points, rick perry in 2012 led by almost 8 points knowing all those numbers, where we were historically, does that mean all th

hillary clinton or bernie sanders? among those who caucused for bernie sanders, look at this.en at 32%, beating bernie sanders among his own former supporters. he's only at 25%, which i think tells you that elizabeth warren has gone into bernie sanders' house and taken his honey. >> are you comfortable at this point saying sanders can't win if warren is in the race, but warren might be able to win if sanders is in the race? >> i think that these numbers indicate that she could very well win with bernie sanders in the race. look, it's still early days yet. things can change. but bernie sanders has near universal name recognition, and as this slide is showing, he is going in the wrong direction. 25, 16, 11 with universal name i.d., that is not a comfortable trend. >> all right. so now let's look at what this means for biden. in terms of enthusiasm, why does enthusiasm matter? what does that tell you about a number? >> well, yeah, exactly right. so, you know, caucuses tend to have lower turnout, and so our poll asked how enthusiastic are you about the candidate that you're backin

some polls you would see warren a point or two ahead of sanders, some polls sanders a point or two ahead would be double digits ahead of both. now our new poll, look at that, warren now clearly attaining some separation from sanders for second place, and notably, she's 6 points behind biden for first. 11 points ahead of sanders in that second and third now. she's closer to biden for the lead in this poll than she is to sanders for third place. so this is something to look at going forward. are there other polls that show this is warren beginning to separate herself from sand skpeers and to start getting closer to biden. two things are going on here we have talked about this, similar messages between warren and sanders, there are a lot of differences in their coalitions. there is some overlap too. where there's been overlap, warren seems to be getting the better of sanders. also another reason warren has been able to do this, right here kamala harris, falling all the way back to 5% 5% for kamala harris in this remember after that first debate a couple of months ago, there were national po

i meant commander in chief sanders. i'm sorry, i mean, colonel sanders.lan is finger-licking bad!" one of the most dramatic moments was when julian castro went after not only biden's health care plan, but biden's favorite name to drop. >> barack obama's vision was not to leave ten million people uncovered. he wanted every single person in this country covered. my plan would do that. your plan would not. >> they do not have to buy in. they do not have to buy in. >> you just said that-- you just said that two minutes ago. you just two minutes ago they would have to buy in. ( biden crosstalk ) >> if you qualify for medicaid you would automatically-- >> are you forgetting what you said two minutes ago? >> stephen: oooh! the crowd did not like julian playing the "old man" card. he should really rethink your new slogan: "castro 2020: shove the elderly onto an ice floe." don't worry, julian. it's not like old people vote. the moderators didn't pull any punches with kamala harris over criminal justice reform. >> you used to oppose the legalization of marijuana. n

for second place between them some polls warren is a point or two ahead of sanders, some polls sanderst or two ahead, biden would be double digits ahead of both of them. now in our new poll, first poll for us out after the debate last week, warren is clearly attaining separation from sanders for second place and notably she's six poinds behits biden for first, closer to biden for the lead in this poll than she is to sanders for third place. this is something to look at going forward. are there other polls that show this is warren beginning to separate herself from sanders and to start getting closer to biden? why has warren been able to do this it looks like two things are going on here. number one, we've talked about this similar messages, between warren and sanders, there are a lot of differences in their coalitions there is some overlap too. there has been some overlap. where there's been overlap warren now seems to be getting the better of sanders. also, another reason warren's been able to do this, right here, kamala harris, you see, falling all the way back to 5% 5% for kamala ha

senator sanders, do you have time for a quick question? okay. senator sanders, the former vice president biden said that he thought -- he referred to you as a socialist and he said he thought you were too nice to corporate america. >> [laughs] yeah, well, one of us voted for the wall street bailout. one of us -- that was biden, by the way. one of us voted for disastrous trade agreements that were sponsored by corporate america. one of us voted for a bankruptcy bill that was pushed by the banks. that was biden. so to suggest that bernie sanders is sympathetic to the corporate elite i think is rather humorous. in point, the fact, the the whe theme of my campaign is to suggest that if we are going to be donald trump, and everybody up there wants to be donald trump, but if we are going to do it, we need a campaign of energy and excitement that speaks to the needs of working families whose wages have been stagnant for the last 45 years. and the only way you're going to get more people involved in the political process is when you have the courage to

to bernie sanders' dismay, so a lot is at stake tonight. it should be interesting.: so playing from the other side, as you look at former vice president biden, has he had it as good as he can get messy do something new? he started with a lot of name recognition and money. he has to do something to get the initiative going, doesn't he? >> he does. i saw a poll the other day that shows where biden has moved from when he got in the race to now. he has lost 15 points. there is slippage. let's remember, the last two debates, biden was shaky, at best, against booker and harris. you are right. we have elizabeth warren and bernie sanders on stage with him for the first time, who will come at him from the left, and elizabeth warren is enabled debate or. insaw some people attack her the last debate and she brushed it off and got the crowd behind her, so it will be a challenge for biden tonight. david: as we look at this, robin, is there more at stake than just denomination? is there something of a fight for the soul of the democratic party? and particularly towards the genera

bernard sanders is jewish. is he seeking her endorsement, someone who has said horrible things about netanyahu, about jews. and louis farrakhan is about as low as you can get. >> i don't get. i reached out to a friend of mine who is a strategist for the sanders campaign and i got back crickets. i am not getting any help from them to wrap my brain around it. the only thing i can see is he's so far down in the polls he's doing whatever is controversial to get us talking. it's terrible strategy. let's just call it for what it is. trish: if i were a democrat considering voting for bernie sanders, i would be thinking twice about it. >> he's obviously catering to both side. he's banking on getting the jewish vote because he's jewish. which i think is arrogant. then he is placating to the portion of the squad and their far left base. the ones pushing a pro palestinian agenda. the ones who refuse to condemn people such as louis farrakhan. and linda supports sharia law. i don't see how that a winning strategy. you have

they may know bernie sanders based upon the 2016 campaign. i think joe biden does deserve some credit that he hasn't actually lost any support even though there's been plenty of coverage of his gaffes and stuff like this. but i still think that as we move along in this campaign it is too tempting to think the lead will hold up based on what we've seen so far. >> show me the numbers, steve. what do they tell you? >> a couple of things of looking at it, is he a fragile front-runner? he is the leader as you say nationally. it is not overwhelming, high 20s, low 30s on a good day. some front-runners in the past have been stronger than that. but the risk you see when you look at the numbers at least right now is the early statements, the order of the states. this is one of the most recent polls out of iowa. this is cbs u gov. there are not a ton of state polls, stronger for standards but consistent with what we have seen. that is biden is in front in the iowa poll. it is close. you have sanders and warren both within striking distance of him. you t

bernie sanders have been saying the same things for decades. my question to you is, are we going to see this play nice pact between him and warren designating at some point or will he start going after his progressive pal? >> everybody on that stage wants to be president of the united states of america. this debate is about showing the people who is best suited to serve on that stage, that's tonight and every other night. it's not just her, it is everybody on that stage. he's already differentiated himself. actually, he ran for the presidency in 2016. he had the courage to step you. on top of that, the entire democratic lineup is really preaching from the gospel according to bernard sanders because they had courage to say medicare for all should be a right notsds country, colle right. to say we need to increase the minimum wage to $15 an hour, so he will go on that stage as the visionary that he has always been. >> i get that, but some might think bernie sanders and elizabeth warren are cut from the same cloth. they're very similar. what we're

in 2020 sanders has turned the tabl tables.n hall. >> my name is wendolyn, and i want to address ageism. >> reporter: his campaign stops have become more personal, his supporters sharing stories of hardship. >> my husband lost his job. then he became disabled. we have been in the disability process for two years. we are a week away from losing our home to auction. i'm sorry. >> reporter: and sanders takes it all in, a candidate known for his prickly demeanor offering words of comfort and a promise to make things better. >> the drug prices are so high that i have an incident from the military that the military government does not cover my medication. it costs me $900 for five pills every month. 900. i served this country. i stood in the war for this country, and i need to know what are you going to do about it? >> reporter: for sanders, hearing these stories has only strengthened his resolve to push for his signature campaign issues like medicare for all. >> it is hard to hear directly from people about the pain that they are ex

sanders seeing a bit of a dip.his is all telling us, alex, that elizabeth warren is surging in that first state. >> and, david, when we look at this, age and ideological divide are big factors in this poll. so what are the numbers in those categories showing? >> it is so interesting to see. so how is elizabeth warren coming to this moment? well, part of it is she is digging into key pieces of bernie sanders' strength. look at young voters, voters under the age of 35 over the course of the last year in iowa across our polling with the des moines register. take a look at march. bernie sanders was at 34% among these under 35 voters. take a look where he is now, down to 21%, in june 22% in september. look at warren's numbers here. she is climbing. 10% in march. 19% in june. now she's overtaken bernie sanders with this core piece of his constituency. she is taking slices of the sanders' coalition. now joe biden continues to own the 65 and over vote. the senior citizens in iowa, look at this, running away. joe biden gets

>> first of all, bernie sanders is exactly right.'t have to argue about getting his insurance paid. he should have coverage. for pete buttigieg, i would say, what would he say about seniors? seniors are automatically enrolled in medical care, so why wouldn't we do that for every american? you could still have supplemental insurance, but what we're seeing is give every american the health care seniors have in this administration. >> i want to go back to something you said about john the veteran. just having heart medication and depressants that tri-care doesn't cover. like many programs it will steer people toward certain medications over others. some are covered, some are not. would medicare for all change that? >> yes, it would. medicare for all would cover these medicines and it would reduce any out-of-pocket cost. the reason it would be able to do this and save money is because we're going to get rid of the excessive insurance profits, the excessive pharmaceutical profits and give people basic health care. this is not a very novel

sanders versus clinton and apply that to 2020 and you see elizabeth warren has gone into bernie sanderss among those caucusgoers who said they were going, they went for bernie sanders in 2016, but the interesting thing she's pulling from the clinton camp while sanders isn't and it shows that elizabeth warren is relying on those bernie sanders' caucusgoers from 2016 to build her support. i think this poll indicates that the bernie sanders' camp made a miscalculation. >> if you ask the biden camp they're not worried about this. a podcast that is called campaign hq and his first guest is greg schultz running biden's campaign. he said, quote, the actual path to a nomination is not necessarily to win states, although that's very important. he says, it's actually the path to delegates and earning delegates and a very prescribed way by district by state. he is playing down, sounded to me, like the importance of these first states for biden. that is a smart strategy? >> i mean the biden campaign has done that even on press calls with reporters. they certainly have played down the importance of

heather: bernie sanders, what grade do you give him? >> he did a good job, be.been preaching the same message for a long time. i know his speech inside how, he did good which was repeated what he always believed the last 30 years and he was able to dodge, didn't make any problems, he maintains really well. elizabeth warren a b plus, stay on message, to focus on anyone else except what she came to talk about but because she passed the test on every debate, she gets a little bit above a b grade. heather: listening to pundits immediately following the debate, she once again dodged questions when it came to paying for her health care plan? >> what would really be fair to everyone is to have a healthcare townhall like they did on environmental, that deserves a long form conversation. people are more confused than informed. that the conversations that should happen. heather: you think it should be 7 hours long? that is the question. >> i don't know, that is how long it will take to get this understanding of it. heather: any of the candidates get an a from you? >> peop

while joe biden and bernie sanders have faced up, all eyes are on elizabeth warren.ers says the former vice president questions whether warren will be able to deliver on her plans. >> plans are great, but executing on those plans is say very different thing. >> reporter: but warren is imploring democrats to dream big, arguing now is not the time to play it safe. >> we can't choose a candidate we don't believe in because we're scared. we don't believe in. >> reporter: the massachusetts senator releasing another new plan today, calling for a major expansion of southeastern security, to immediately increase benefits by $200 a month per person. and expand benefits for the poor. to pay for it she would require the wealthiest americans to contribute more to the program. warren along with bernie sanders is calling for sweeping changes to health care and other government programs. it's a revolution that biden and several other rivals fear is pushing the party too far to the left. only ten candidates out of the crowded dem qualified for the debate to be head on the campus of

elizabeth warren's plan, bernie sanders's plan would cost much, much more. you heard from amy klobuchar saying they don't want to lose their private health insurance. polls show across the board that's not a popular idea. she's saying it's not a bold idea, it's a bad idea. it's not surprising to have seen that debate continuing. poppy. >> so julian castro was the latest far trailing -- distant trailing candidate to take a shot at joe biden in a debate, a personal one, and it didn't go over well, did it? >> it didn't. you could hear the reaction in the crowd. listen to what julian castro said. this was about the debate during their health care plans. take a listen. >> the difference between what i support and what you support, vice president biden, is that you require them to opt in, and i would not require them to opt in. >> they do not have to buy in. they do not have to buy in. >> you just said that two minutes ago. you just said two minutes ago they would have to buy in. are you forgetting what you said two minutes ago? are you forgetting already what you

are senators warren and sanders pushing too far? >> that'll be for the voters to decide. >> united against trump. >> he reminds me of that guy in "the wizard of oz," you know, when you pull back the curtain. >> we've got one shot to make donald trump a one-term president. >> so what changed thursday night? did the front-runners solidify their positions or give new hope to the challengers? pete buttigieg and amy klobuchar are here today. the gop response from texas senator ted cruz plus our powerhouse roundtable. we'll break down the politics, smoke out the spin, the facts that matter this week. >> announcer: from abc news, it's "this week." here now, chief anchor, george stephanopoulos. >> good morning, and welcome to "this week." the top ten democratic contenders shared the same stage for the first time thursday night. who won, who lost, how much changed not entirely clear. probably the way it should be still five months from the first votes. what is clear, the ideological and political debate that divides this field is far from se
