south carolina is one of the faster growing states in the union. the last redistricting we increased the congress and that means two things. number one, it is a state that people are retiring to and that means people are growing older that come to south carolina. that means when you look at medicaid, over 64% of the people who live in nursing homes are beneficiaries of medicaid and it's much broader than people tend to deal with in the discussions and when you do violence to medicaid it is to senior citizens living in nursing homes. a second thing, community health centers and the act expanded a billion dollars and that gets us to 4% to deal with the safety net that needs to be dealt under medicare and the delivered system so, i would hope that september 30. to look at the site would hope that we do come back with something that will fix the cliff for the community health centers and greatly expand them and i am pleased to yield to the chair. when we think they are done, they are actually not, so this fight goes on. we know they are not there yet w

surely that's true in south carolina, as well. what it tells us is clearly we have to have a message and we do go going forward as democrats. i think what it really tells us is a lot of these margeal seats that are not the solid republican seats like these special leekz elections were are going to be completely in play for democrats in 2018. we've got a long way to go from here to there. i take heart in what happened tonight. >> we should also stress, we are all of us in the cheap seats. this is the after action report where we can all afford to be brilliant and having seen all these trends coming. former congress mann david jolly here with us, what do you make of what happened tonight and how surprised by south carolina? >> very surprised. listen, i was elected in a special election that at the time was the most expensive in consequential history. >> they broke your record tonight into it was $12 million or $14 million two years ago. i understand what both candidates are going through tonight particularly the volunteers that gave

no one thought rg parnell would come this close in south carolina. it's because the race flew under the radar t. good news for democrats going forward is that turnout in 2018 is not going to be as high as it was in georgia. so that enthusiasm gap could be wider and benefit democrats. >> that i don't quite believe. i think we will head up to a quick turnout. you said if the democrats can do this, 8 points better, like they've done before, we'll put as many as 80 seats in play. we know there is a lot of caveats there. walk me through the big things, under that scenario, where are the big targets. give me the states here. >> california is on seven of the 23 districts that republicans hold in one. so seven there. you go toing the, three more in texas. >> okay. >> florida, four more in florida. then you get to the northeast. >> okay. you got between long island and upstate new york, five races there, you got two in new jersey. >> all right. >> three in the philadelphia suburbs, you move to virginia where you got two more. >> okay. >> you got two more in t

south carolina's lindsay graham: >> it leaves pre-existing illnesses alone, so you'll never be denied coverage because you're sick. that's a pretty good place to start. i have to run it by south carolina and see how it will fix us on the medicaid side. >> reporter: the senate bill would roll back obamacare's expansion of medicaid. >> no cuts to medicaid! >> reporter: that drew dozens of disabled protesters to senate leader mitch mcconnell's office today, and it's a sticking point for several moderate republicans. >> i have a lot of concerns. >> reporter: so republican leaders must now find ways to appease both wings of their party, in the face of universal opposition from democrats like oregon's ron wyden. >> senate republicans are going to keep telling americans they're fixing their health care, right up until the second when it gets taken away. >> reporter: on facebook, former president obama call the g.o.p. plan "a massive transfer of wealth from middle-class and poor families to the richest people in america." "simply put," he wrote, "if there's a chance you might get sick, get ol

a congressman from south carolina tried to beat up someone else. >> many of us go to the gym. i go to the gym every morning. i learned democrats exercise late in the day and republicans early in the morning. except for mitch the whole leadership team of republicans were there and we were all united in our shock and hope there would be fewer injuries. it was a moment. we do it all the time and we're talking and working with each other. a lot of contention. obviously the politics has become polarized and doesn't have to stand in the way of working relationships to do that. >> how does it change? there's already rhetoric flying on both sides. >> there's always going to be rhetoric, anderson. that, you can't stop. that's the history of the country as mitch pointed out, even on the senate floor. if we can work despite the rhetoric and the senate as the cooling saucer helping bring people together a little bit, that's a very good thing. i know mitch does we talked about it and we aim to do it. >> a lot of it goes on all the time unfortunately. it doesn't make news. our arguments ten

a special election if south carolina's fifth district.steve for the very latest. >> the good news right now if ire jon ossoff, he is ahead. is that enough to withstand what is to come? this is democratic heart of the district. dekalb county. here's what he who is the withstand. a lot of same day expected. this is the republican part of the district. and the same from cobb county is the advantage for handel. would that be enough to overcome the lead? in georgia, south carolina, their candidate leads. here's the problem for democrats. the heavily republican part of district, that is overrepresented here. a lot of big republican areas to come. it looks line democrats will improve on what they do in this district. at this point, where they're coming in from. it is better news for republicans. >> all right. thanks for that update. still to come, prux's approval rating falls by double digits. plus, speaking the president's language in tonight's thing one and thing two next. you doyou'll see whatet but in you're really made of. after five hours

here in south carolina every year they already employed 9000.t study show that they affect 120,000 jobs in this country, exporting billions in cars from south carolina out to other places around the world more than any other carmaker, including ford and gm. this is a massive part of the economy here. this is where the cut off on parts in example, with germany, hurting the jobs in this country. we've got the message that they are trying to bring from here in spartanburg. julia: the south carolina has praisedovernor germany and bmw in particular for creating jobs in the states. matt: yeah, lindsey graham said he was one proud american who was proud to drive a german car. hisad 29 -- 29,000 miles on bmw. i asked why he was here today and listen to what he told me. >> one of the reasons they make the direct investment is the number of parts. they sell it throughout canada, the trade agreement, nafta, is a big plus for bmw because they can sell cars anywhere in north america without a terrorist. tariq -- tariff. matt: bmw of course wants to convince

the republican special election in georgia specifically but also south carolina. colors can start calling in for lines for republican, independents and democrats. i want to thank you. come back and join us again. senate republicans unveil their health care law on thursday. debate expected to begin next week after being scored by the congressional budget office.

south carolina was a big surprise. sure, the republican won 3.2%. but last time around, mick mulvaney with a 20-point win. as the republicans have gone 4 for 4 in the special elections, we've seen it in montana, 15.8%. down to plus 5.6%. we saw it in kansas where more than a 30-point victory for the republicans last time around last year down to 6.2% in the special election. so what does it mean? we have to look at the balance of power heading into the mid-term elections next year and know that the democrats certainly have ground to make up. they have to start turning these close but no cigar races into actual victories. they don't have to win them all. the magic number is 218. so for the democrats to flip that over and get control of the house, they need to net a total of 24 seats next year. neil, back to you. >> neil: thanks, connell. so closeness of these elections, particularly some of these special events and the recent ones by a couple points, is that a message to republicans? that they shouldn't get too ahead of themselves here? aaron mcpike

big in saudi arabia in terms of the georgia south carolina election.irst come your thoughts on this change. does this impact markets in anyway? >> i think it impacts market significantly because he's trying to diversify their economy and is in charge of a lot of other sectors. how would that reverberate. they led the charge against qatar. ramco is trained to do an idea. this will impact and it's really entangled so that's a big deal. there's been complications. >> the studies are motivated to support the oil price. a lot of this has to do with the tension with qatar and fall apart because of that. they lead the charge on that. maria: down 43 training 34. talk to us about georgia and south carolina. your thought on these yesterday. >> this is huge. despite the media attacking republicans every hour of every day, putting $24 million into this race. the democrats were not able to pull this off. this is embarrassing for them and sends a strong message. some are totally out of touch with the american people. look at the way hillary clinton ran her campaign.

. >> have you been back to south carolina? directly to a kid's for one week to spring break. >> so what skills or talents as governor have he quipped you for this job? and he said he did something like this as governor i can imagine the legislature is difficult to do's so what was said about governor when there was some synergy?. >> that was the surprising part because i have always been honest i didn't have a lot of foreign policy experience a governor is more executive balancing agencies in dealing with the politics. it is like a steadying for final exam every day with a constant learning curve but there is a lot of things that actually work. one of them is to trust your gut moving with your instinct is very important with those negotiation tactics to put out decision making and to make a strong presence in have to move fast. in dealing with people for not telling the truth and to call the amount is important and powerful a time like this. a lot more skills than i thought. >> we have a mutual friend of the head coach of the

the president weighing in on that race, ralph norman ran a fantastic race to win in south carolina'sth district, we are honored by your success tonight. special elections are over and those who want to make america great again are 5-0, all the big news, all the money spent. heather: another fox news alert, security beefed up in brussels after soldiers kicked out a suspected bomber. in the central train station, terrorist shouting allah u akbar setting off this explosion moments before being shot dead, people running for their lives. and and leaving 32 people dead. the third to strike since monday. the committee chair says the blame lies with europeans who need to step up. >> it is disappointing, these are problems, people have been predicting when happening. and on a regular basis for the foreseeable future but they are serious about how to deal with this. and the mass migration coming into their countries, you can work through nato with the safe havens in libya and the more complicated problem is how to deal with internal politics and internal threat that exists in their countries t

i'll always have one eye on south carolina but the people of south carolina taught me so much and i'm proud and i use that gift. >> i'm sure you sensed this yesterday but we live in a time of tremendous political conflict but the one thing -- and i think you sensed it yesterday is a lot of my colleagues in the foreign relations committee in particular have been complimentary of your work and one particular senator said when he voted for you it was a leap of faith and you haven't disappointed. so we've -- we're grateful you're doing this. i've always been a huge fan of yours, always appreciative of our friendship but i speak for a lot of people that we're exciting about the way you use that platform. there isn't a week that there isn't some clip of you at one of these security council meetings -- >> yelling at someone? >> but making an important point and we feel like you're not just representing our country, you're representing our values we thank you for being a part of this. i encourage you to stick around. we have a great panel coming up.

south carolina's fifth congressional district, archie parnell and ralph norman fighting for the seatby mick mulvaney, the budget director. let's talk about the special elections and begin with the panel. michael crowley, senior correspondent for politico. mercedes schlapp and charles krauthammer. we've seen it blown up about how important it is. >> these are generally not predicted. in 2010, there was no indication you'd have a republican sweep, as you did. i can't predict who's going to win that i can predict with absolute certainty what the headlines are going to be. if the democrat wins, the headlines are going to be "a referendum on trump." guaranteed. if he loses, the headlines will be "in a race that doesn't mean anything, and a special election with special circumstances, turnout problematic." they will say of course the republicans won deceived by 23 points last time so what do you expect that this is how it's going to be played. everybody is waiting. if there is a stumble by the republicans it will be hyped from here to sunday. i think these special elections are very specia

that come to south carolina. that means when you look at medicaid, where 64% of the people who live in nursing homes are the beneficiaries of medicaid. medicaid is much broader than people tend to deal with in their discussions. do violence to medicaid, you do violence to senior citizens living in nursing homes. the second thing, community health sentence. in the affordable care act, we expanded community health centers. that gets us to around 40% of what we really need to build a safety net that needs to be built. in our medicare or medical delivery system -- health delivery system. 30,uld hope that september for community's help -- health centers, we will reach the cliff on september 30. i think the leader, leader mcconnell, for taking another look at this and i would hope we will come back with something that will fix the cliff for community health centers and greatly expand them. with that, i am pleased to yield to the chair of our caucus. >> thank you, gentlemen. one thing we know, what this congress -- what

he loses his hand right there he's right into the president's hand and let's not forget that south carolina has a special election for mick mulvaney seat director of the office of management and budget that will likely stay republican but the margin is going to matter to d.c. insiders if it if it's even remotely close if it's not a double digit win for the republican the republicans have big problems in south carolina the margins matter here for what ends up going on in capitol hill the assumption of power all eyes are on georgia as i mentioned but they say and as you mention the same cannot be said for the special election going on in south carolina's fifth people say who is are cheaper now. it was john galt who was our part now why does he matter what's going on all the matters to you any matters to a lot of people in politics here why is this matters because what what d.c. is paying attention to is what these two races do as a set up for twenty eight terms right and if this margin in south carolina is anything less than double digits republicans have major problems going forward and the

in south carolina even if south carolina, the democratic party here, had spent that money before theyve never shown up on the reports until the middle of july well after archie parnell had been sworn in as a member of congress so. the pelosi effect wouldn't have mattered in south carolina. it simply wouldn't have. you do have to -- listen. tara is right. jason's right. voter registration, calling out suppression, that stuff has to be a priority for the parties, building parties means building people. if you don't do that you can't win in south carolina, and so do the -- the dccc, they failed in both of these. >> i like the fact that you called out the dccc. nancy pelosi doesn't run these, it's the job to win these. and one more editorial thing. spending all of that money on tv as opposed to spending it on voter registration and ground game might be a problem too. if you did have hemorrhoids i bet you nancy would send you a designer pillow. that's how you know, she's going to send you something. >> i have a designer pillow. thank you. >> you guys are great. tara, jason, wish you were a

john: on other thing i would say is that some contemporaries believe that by the use of force in south carolina, most historians don't buy the idea that andrew jackson could have stopped the secession movement had he still been alive. this misunderstands the degree of support for secession across the south in 1860 and 1861. buchanan did not want to use that aggressive use of force because he recognized that was something that might fuel secession even more. >> just one final comment, it really makes me more sympathetic to buchanan and his estimate as a president. it is somewhat unfair because he was placed in a situation where jesus of nazareth would have had a hard time untangling that very difficult situation. thank you very much. michael: thank you. remember, it's an argument without end. thanks, everybody.

to is what these two races do as a set up for twenty eight terms right and if this margin in south carolina is anything less than double digits republicans have major problems going forward and the house republicans need to start getting things done we need to start putting some wins on the board so that they can get ready for twenty eight thousand for the midterms let's talk about wins on the board because these are special elections vacated by cabinet appointments they're kind of waving in the wind capitol hill hasn't really shown us anything we're looking at tax we're looking at health care we're looking at infrastructure august recess is coming up so to take it to the national level and aside from the midterms is there any way on the back of these results were publicans will be able to get something done no matter what the results are because people are really looking at this what are we a month and a half from recess. well in the house it's kind of two different stories one on health care it's all in the hands of the senate right now well yeah i mean senator mitch mcconnell going to be

republicans in georgia and in south carolina. "new day" continues right now. >> rather than demonizing each other, we find common ground to move forward. >> republicans avoiding a major upset in georgia's special election. >> we need to lift up this nation so we can find a more civil way to deal with our disagreements. >> we used to complain like hell when democrats rammed the affordable care act. now they're doing the same thing. >> i want to assure you, before this summer is over, we will repeal and replace obamacare. >> the american people have a right to know what is in this bill. >>> it's a total disgrace what happened to otto. he should have been home a long time ago. >>> i hope the president and his team get a lot tougher with china. >> this is "new day" with chris cuomo and alisyn camerota. >> good morning. welcome to your "new day." alisyn is off. brooke baldwin joins me. republicans celebrating a big win in the most expensive house race in u.s. history. karen handel defeating democratic challenger jon ossoff to win the

archie parnell is in south carolina. he looks kind of like a nerdy professor.hy looks like your fancy brother-in-law. archie parnell is sort of like your uncle. archie is probably going to have a hard time because he's a democrat and he's running in a pretty red district in south carolina. i don't think goldman sachs will stop people from voting for him. just the fact that there are a lot of republicans down there. theie: and that is actually more interesting race to watch. we are all watching georgia because of the money that was carolinatheir, but the one is more indicative for next year? vonnie: you are right. ssof inll eyes are on o georgia, i think that if archie parnell can win in the fifth -- alarm that will bells will be ringing in washington. not just because it's another goldman sachs guy. vonnie: people are seizing on this as a trump referendum, but is it, though? is that too much of a leap? be straightd just and say that a not sure if archie will win tomorrow. his own numbers show that he cuffed cut his deficit -- that he cut his deficit from 16 to
