will not help joe biden saying he was friends with strom thurmond, who was a southern segregationist. they were colleagues on the judiciary committee, there were votes, judges, and deals made. this is how government works, or did work. i think you will run into trouble on the campaign trail where you have an inpatient group of activists who think this is selling out and giving into the other side. he got a lot of criticism. he campaigned in michigan, i think for a democrat, and was at some event and he singled out fred upton for praise, which was then used in a campaign ad by the upton campaign. democrats feel that he may have cost them a seat. >> thank you very much everyone. thank you.

senator biden replied "strom, i found her a brain trust and hired her because she is so smart." questions are being raised about flores herself and the fact she was a bernie sanders supporter in 2016, served on the board of his political foundation. here is how she was answering the question, whether she has a political motivation this morning. >> how would you respond to somebody out there who says she's attending a beto rally, supported bernie in 2016. politics might be partially motivating you here. what would you tell those people? >> i would say politics was definitely the impetus. the reason why we're having these conversations about vice president joe biden is because he's considering running for president. >> so a surprising and somewhat candid comment there, her acknowledging that politics is an issue. joe biden still has not announced his plans, but we should expect his team will continue to respond to this in the days and weeks ahead. >> great question and thank you mike, memoli. charlie, that's to you, is this going to influence biden's decision on whether or not he

he was good friends with strom thurmond when thurmond was the chairman of the judiciary committee. it was biden who delivered the eulogy at thurmond's funeral. he knows how government works. democratic government is the art of the possible. >> so your making the distinction that he is talking about the most progressive results, not the most progressive person. >> yes, exactly. i think he's clearly not the most progressive person in the field if you're going to define that by whose for every aspect of the green new deal or whose going to call themselves a democratic socialist. obviously he is not in that category. but he does have a record of performance. and he would know how to be president. and he's got to demonstrate that he can beat trump that i think is still the most defining characteristic that the democratic voters want. >> on that, before we turn to some of the other features here, take a listen to what we've heard from some of the other candidates on the economic populous front. i don't think delaware, the home of where corporations incorporate for a reason gives you that
