cruz, lying ted, lies, oh, he lies. ted, he brings, the bible, holds it high, puts it down, lies. >> matter of principle -- >> you are the single biggest liar. you are the single biggest liar. he holds up the bible and then he lies. >> we learned today president trump will be holding a rally for senator ted cruz in october. trump tweeted he'll be picking the biggest stadium he can find. there's a lot of big ones in texas as senator cruz attempts to beat back an unexpectedly tough challenge from congressman beto o'rourke. the relationship between donald trump and ted cruz has been one of mutual contempt and mutual convenience. you may recall that when the two were both candidates for president in spring, 2016, and cruz was showing traction, trump retweeted a picture of heidi cruz and melania trump with the caption "the images are worth a thousand words." and cruz responded with this. >> i don't get angry often but you mess with my wife, you mess with my kids, that will do it every time. donald you're a sniveling coward.

better life. >>> in the case of lyin' ted cruz, lyin' ted. lies, oh, he lies.ble, holds it high, puts it down, lies. >> matter of principle, and i'll tell you -- >> you are the single biggest liar. >> he holds up the bible and then he lies. >> we learned today that president donald trump will be holding a rally for senator ted cruz in october. trump tweeted he'll be picking the biggest stadium he can find. there's a lot of big ones in texas. as senator cruz attempts to beat back an unexpectedly tough challenge from congressman beto o'rourke. just kind of fascinating because the relationship between donald trump and ted cruz has been one of both mutual contempt and mutual convenience. you may recall that when the two were both candidates in 2016 and cruz was showing a little traction. trump retweeted a picture of heidi cruz and melania trump with the caption the images are worth a thousand words and cruz responded with this. >> i don't get angry often, but you mess with my wife, you mess with my kids, that will do it every time. donald, you're a sniveling coward

number two, ted cruz is an easier opponent to knock down.e split voters. you might have someone who vote the top of the ballot and not vote the senate. they might stay home when they hear abbott is ahead by 20 points. i don't know what to do about cruz. some people have a gag reflex when they think about it. is he going to be nasty, crabby? >> so the bebait thing is interesting. usually the front-runner doesn't want any debates. it's strangely inverted although cruz wants it on friday nights in texas which is a little weird. this is texas, friday night is sacrosanc sacrosanct. it was friday night during college football season in mcallen and nobody saw it. the governor's race, friday night. >> the cruz bet is, look, ultimately the fundamentals are the fundamentals. the more i can get people hearing beto o'rourke, culture war, i want to talk about colin kaepernick for an hour, the more i can talk to him about stuff that will rile up the redness of your median tecxan voter -- >> >> beto is speaking untested, unexperienced, never done this. i w

with ted cruz.ose voters for that. they're going to praise him for coming around to donald trump. and everyone knows that ted cruz is linked to donald trump. >> i wonder if he can tear off some republican voters -- hold on real fast. money is pouring in from other republican groups to help ted cruz if texas. is that at the expense of florida? >> that's at the expense of everybody. >> i don't think so. it won't hurt florida. florida, the money is still going to be there. you have a candidate running for senate that is self-funding. [ overlapping speakers ] >> money that goes to one place isn't going to another. >> in new jersey, they're looking for money there for a very blue state. we'll see. >> guys, thank you very much. >>> next, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. >> he goes, trump. i pick up, i said, hello. you remember me? i said, i don't know. fact is, every insurance company hopes you drive safely. but allstate actually helps you drive safely... with drivewise. it lets y

to ted cruz this campaign the cycle.usand dollars in decembe december 2017. he works for the lobbying firm. one of the clients he was assigned to represent his defense contractor northrop. she remember what mick mulvaney say? didn't talk to you. if you're lobbyists to gave us money i might talk to you. on march 29, 2017 ed rogers donated $2700. he is chairman and cofounder of dgr group. he also gave money to ted cruz and lobbied on behalf of the kurdistan regional government. and lobbying on behalf of saudi arabia. did ted cruz talk to him? we don't know. meetings with lobbyists are not reported. ted cruz lectured endlessly while being paid up. he's taken money from lobbyist regulated by senate transportation committee. they're getting billions of dollars for his armed services committee. he's taken money from lobbyists for foreign governments. not to mention the revolving door. we reached out for, and that statement includes the following. while every member of congress engages in lobbyist in some capacity, the test is

cruz, they see that ted cruz is for ted cruz. 100%.ing the interests of texans. he's not in keeping with what people want to hear from their elected representatives. and certainly from their candidates. there is a poll that came out today that shows them only 3 points apart. and the good news about these polls is that they continue to trend upward in beto o'rourke's favor. and beto o'rourke has caught fire with a group of people who typically do not vote in midterm elections. that's why i think he's going to win. because we are seeing an extraordinary turnout. our democrats doubled their turnout, over a million more democratic voters voted in this primary than had voted in the midterm when i ran in 2014. i expect that that's going to get even stronger. and not just that democrats are going to be turning out in bigger numbers, but a lot of those moderate republicans and independents are going to come b beto's way -- >> i'm over on time, george, a final sentence. >> i was going to say, ted cruz didn't endorse john cornyn when he ran last

ted cruz makes other republicans hate ted cruz. >> you've still got to consider that it was ted cruz,p and still >> also another state that i'm really watching because i think democrats are very likely to take a senate seat in tennessee, too. and it's crazy that we're talking about texas and tennessee in 2018. >> a thing about beto that reminds me of what people loved about the late, great john mccain. what he says doesn't come from something some aide hands him. no one does a poll and says say this. he gets asked a question and it reminds me of john mccain in new hampshire. he get s asked a question. no matter whether it's about nailing in the nfl, immigration, whether it's something that ted cruz is going to chop into some political ad or not, he answers the question. >> no one ever looks at ted cruz and says, wow, that guy is comfortable in his own skin. no one looks at ted cruz and says he's going to -- we're going to have an actual discussion. there's always machinery going on in his head. when you see beto. texas is a high hill for the democrats to climb. no matter what. he's a

ted cruz, ted cruz, you know that joe mccarthy look alike, could actually lose in texas this november. as one of the trump's own aides put it, he's not likeable. >>> plus the pence defense. vice-president mike pence pushed back against the trump presidency in bob woodard's new book. he said he'd take a lie detector test to prove he wasn't the unnamed official who pend the op-ed. isn't that a little desperate to say i'll take a lie detector test so you'll take my word for it, mr. president? and omarosa released more tapes of the president. we're going to play those for you tonight. this is hardball where the action is. you want to protect it. at legalzoom, our network of attorneys can help you every step of the way. with an estate plan including wills or a living trust that grows along with you and your family. legalzoom. where life meets legal.

ted cruz isn't tip and cool. places, hold a rally, get people to show up and say the things that they like to hear. >> i am concerned about the polls. i don't necessarily know where they're polling people out. >> there are people coming out in el paso. there are people coming out in fort davis. >> i don't see ted cruz signs. i'm concerned if ted cruz really wants to win this race, where is his people at. >> you go to some of the reddest places in texas, so reliably red you can see it glowing from outer space. there is really something very special happening in texas right now. >> i talk to a lot of people and nobody i have ever even talked, i never met one person. who are they polling, the illegal immigrants? >> to everyone in this kbhunty who gave me a chance to succeed, i'm going to make the absolute most of it right now. >> three minutes after the hour, robert francis o'rourke, better known as b-dub feels its very american to take a knee. >> i can think of anything more american than to peacefully stand up and

ted cruz isn't him and cool. places, hold a rally, get people to show up and say the things that they like to hear. >> i am concerned about the polls. i don't necessarily know where they're polling people at. >> there are people coming out in el paso. there are people coming out in fort davis. >> i don't see one ted cruz sign. i see beto signs. >> i don't see ted cruz signs. i'm concerned if ted cruz really wants to win this race, where is his people at. >> you go to some of the reddest places in texas it, places like abilene, so reliably red you can see it glowing from outer space. there is really something very special happening in texas right now. >> i talk to a lot of people and nobody i have ever even talked to, i never met one person who, are they polling, the illegal immigrants? >> to everyone in this community who gave me a chance to succeed, i want to tell you, i'm going to make the absolute most of it right now. >> three minutes after the hour, robert francis o'rourke, better known as beto, feels it's v

and the fact that ted cruz is in trump country. is trump country and people, a lot of that trump base, remembers that the bitter feud between lying ted. that is labeled on his face, lying ted. >> still on twitter for those who want to go back and take a look. >> this is why it is so close. if he was going to have somebody wrap his arm around him and say this is the guy, i think that would be governor abbott. i think that will be a better play because they actually get along. look, when trump comes down and puts his arm around ted cruz and goes, this is my guy, this is my friend, people don't believe it. they're like, man, he hates that guy. >> one thing i noticed, we started the debate talking about the dreamer issue and then we went to policing violence and then the national anthem and then, of course, to dr. ford. and in all these issues, o'rourke was speaking to people of color. and mentioning what people of color want. even when his dwi was brought up, he turned it around to talk about white privilege, how he gets a second chan

[ cheers and applause ] thrilled that they're here. now, if you got a chance to study on migrating tree frogs that -- wait, i'm sorry, i could be wrong here, but i think i smell some smoke and that could only mean one thing, it's time for "ya t. ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: welcome to the burn zone. we got a lot of topics to sizzle through, but not a lot of time. over here is the burner. let's turn on the gas and load her up. woo! lego my eggo. first up, the new iphone xs. it's called the xs because after buying it, you'll have an excess of old iphones lying around to use as paperweights. newsflash, if someone needs to replace their phone once a year, they are a drug dealer. [ laughter ] and yeah, your camera is g but why does it have to be so good. trust me, you

>> trevor: come on, people, don't kick ted cruz out of a restaurant.ow he's just going to be eating a stray cat. ( audience reacts ) no, don't feel bad for ted cruz, what was probably the best night of his life. in the car ride home, his wife was, like, why are you smiling? he's, like, we just got kicked out of that restaurant, last time just because i'm ted cruz, now it's cause of kavanaugh. i'm moving up, baby. ( laughter ) in news, a man hated almost as much as ted cruz, bill cosby. a judge sentenced america's dad to three to ten years in prison. the one upside is they're already making him a personalized jump suit. ( laughter ) moving on, nelson mandela. the south africa, he's a hero politician who fought for the rights of black people. ( cheering ) in america, he's a guy who had cool birthday concerts and, at the united nations, he's now a statue. >> the world leaders kicked off their annual gathering at the u.n. honoring the legacy of nelson mandela, a global icon of peace and reconciliation. the u.n. today unveiled the life size statue of mandel

davis. >> i don't see ted cruz. i see beto. i'm concerned if ted cruz wants to win this race. of the reddest places in texas like abilene. so reliably red, you can see it glowing from outer space. there is really something very special happening in texas right now. now, it may be reflected in the polls. >> i talked to a lot of people and nobody i have ever talked to, i never met one person who has been poled. who are they polling? illegal immigrants? >> to everyone in the community who gave me a chance to succeed, i'm going to make the absolute most of it right now. >> three minutes after the hour, robert francis o'rourke, better known as beto, feels it's very american to take a knee. >> i can think of nothing more american than to peacefully stand up or take a knee for your rights any time, anywhere, any place. thank you very much for asking the question. >> ted cruz was attacking you on the nfl. >> no. my comments speak for themselves. >> thank you. >> robert francis beto hurt himself with the ramblings on and on and on about there is nothing more american than taking's knee

but at the end of the day, ted cruz is loved by many, many people in texas.the reason why i think he's going to win this five, six, seven points up, eight points maybe. texas is just not california. and beto is a guy who wants to turn into california. or i should say robert francis, the guy who wants to turn this into california. this is a guy who is anti-gun for goodness sakes in texas. i don't know how you think you can win a statewide seat being anti-gun and anti-border security. but i was shocked that he came out that hard core on those issues but he did. >> okay, so mustafa, as a democratic strategist, let's stick to beto o'rourke. that name is going to confuse a lot of people. even if he loses, do you see -- and if it's a close, you know, loss, do you see this as a real big gain, nonetheless? >> look, texas is not a red state, it's not a blue state, it's a nonvoting state. in 2014 election, only 28% of taxens actually voted. if o'rourke, if he's inspiring people across the state to come out, not just in the suburbs of dallas and houston but across the s

ted krusz next month. >> this is an interesting situation. you look at a state like texas which on the whole has been a e reliably can be republican state. when you look at demographic trends in the state, democrats have looked at texas and said, look, this is a state we think is becoming more purple and that can eventually maybe become blue sometime in the next few years. right now, the polls are showing in texas that ted cruz really does have a real race on his hands. this is not something that raps are taking lightly -- republicans are taking lightly. that could be enough to bring an upset in texas. i think the message that mulvaney is trying to send to cruz and other candidates, look, you have to develop your own brand and it's going to have to be a brand that appeals with people. he's acknowledging what a lot of people already know which is the president is very, very unpopular in a lot of places across the country and a lot of battleground districts and states. he's signaling to the candidates, you have to win on the merits of your own

ted cruz said no.s clearly alarmed and well, this is interesting. >> we are seeing tens of millions of dollars flooding into the state of texas from liberals all over the country who desperately want to turn the state of texas blue. they want us to be just like california. right down to tofu and silicon and dyed hair. >> tofu, silicon, and dyed hair. >> you make a joke, but you make a key point. is ted cruz running now in the texas that exists now? one of the reasons it's not just a strong candidacy by beto o'rourke, but texas is slowly becoming a different place and maybe tofu and silicon and dyed hair may not carry the day. >> he was in katy, texas. that's a suburb of houston and tends to be more conservative. that said, the idea that the hippies are coming in to take over texas is not going to be his biggest problem. it's going to be hispanics and women who are not pleased with what's going on in washington and perhaps in the trump administration. that's who he needs to worry about, not the hippies.

just last night senator ted cruz of texas and his wife were targeted by a mob. watch this.survivor's! we believe survivors! >> tucker: well, this is what it looks like to live under tyranny by rich kids with poetry degrees. these are becoming increasingly common. just a few months ago the dhs secretary was targeted in exactly the same way. [chanting] shane! shame! no borders, no walls, sanctuary for all! if kids don't eat in peace, you don't eat in peace! >> tucker: you see where this is going, and it's not good. until, instead of trying to slow it down or calm their voters, democrats like maxine waters are trying to cheer this kind of behavior on. >> if you see anyone in that cabinet and a restaurant or department store, and a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd, and you tell them they are not welcome. >> tucker: david bernstein is a commentator and thank you for coming on. >> good to be with you. >> tucker: are your parents still around? >> my parents are still around, probably watching tonight. >> tucker: wants her home address so i can send people over

he started with the lying ted and then going after his wife, and placing blame and that ted cruz' dadhad something to do with the assassination of jfk, and that is heavy and deep stuff, and for ted cruz to be embracing or seeing it as an attribute for the president to campaign for him, that is confusing. >> that is whether this debate is a challenge of a real one. the polling there says that the candidate is crash iing in and point or two behind, and so looking at how close it is, and with two months the go, and it would have been a nail biter and would you have ever expected a nail biter. >> well, clear politics has ted up by 4 1/2 point, and here is the key thing, and the opponent has not been vetted or test ed by the media, and -- >> he is looking like the nice guy. >> i am sure he is a nice guy, and that being said, we know that he fled the scene of a dui in 1998 and a lot of other st y stories that are looking into the past, because he has not had the true vetting by the voters around and the more they learn about him, they are going to realize that he is not going to truly repre

exciting news for ted cruz, the g.o.p.ave not won since 1878, hillary won of the district by 12 points, we won because of turnout. when republicans turn out, we win. >> harris: the president has not even gotten in the game, he's promised to do much more moving forward. he's promising six or seven days a week. we did not see that kind of bias with barack obama as president and even when he went he managed to lose 1,000 state national seats. >> i was the minority leader in 2010, you don't need to remind me. i am optimistic for democrats in the united states senate in particular, a number of candidates on the hunt, two open seats, one in arizona and one in tennessee, we are also looking at nevada as well as florida also within that one or two-point margin. while beto o'rourke is on the hunt, it's unlikely texas will abandon candidate like ted cruz. >> harris: go the president isn the schedule going to texas to shore up ted cruz. what does that look like? >> president trump is the game changer, he changes the trajectory of rac

ted cruz. it doubles down to be antitrust crews. ted cruz. if anything, it gives him a little bit of a push. >> jon: typically, the economy is the most important issue when voters go to the polls. this economy seems to be on fire. does that get negated by some of the presidents to readings or feelings that voters might have? >> his base is always going to support the tweets about the economy and whatever else he wants to tweet that day. i think people like ted cruz will continue to voice that message and try to rev up republicans as well. trump is going out to texas and october 2 campaign for him. 's alex, capitol hill, thank you. >> 's a touching on/11 tribute to the heroic men and women of flight 93. plus, immigration taking center stage in another european election. north korea rolling out the tanks but leaving behind long range ballistic melissa cells during its prey. what it could mean for the rogue nation to get rid of its nukes. >> that is a signal they did not want to be provocative but

on the other hand, ted cruz worried about cash.that ohio governor's race between richard cordrey and mike dewine. people will be watching that closely. the rest of the axios 8 are house races and here is the story of this election. most of those are held by republicans. that's why this is all edge of your seat for republicans. the blue wave. they are hoping that had it's a cat 4. they know it's getting stronger. >> mike, before i you go, i have to ask you about this sleeper issue for the next presidential election. tell us about that. >> so this is the vast number of jobs taken by machines. we have a new report up. the white house has been trying to get ahead of this. we saw at the white house yesterday with ivanka trump looking at the future workforce. but here is why this matters. a lot of these jobs are in trump country, places that the president won. he knows dissatisfaction with wages and work is part of what fueled his rise. he realizes he's not going to be able to solve that and these new numbers show it will happen faster t

so i think since all of you are probably ted cruz fans we'll read his section now. [laughter] awe ted cruz long a poster boy for purity poses city cruz was alpha dork of the fund. the text and elected in the wake of 2010 came into the 2016 race with conservative credit in the world. he was a darling of the mercer money clan, had talk radio singing on how he was leader of a bold conservative tomorrow. all of those qualities were in version portion to less obvious personal charms. more than almost any other member of the 2016 field ted cruz helped normalize trump. burning credibility it a toasty crisp. cruz who later hear trump accuse father of accomplice city in assassination of john f. kennedy then trump insulted cruz's wife and told fox news i like donald trump. i think he's terrific. i think he's pressure. i think he speaks the truth. ted even lost support of his long time sugar daddy robert merse and nodded politely through it all in 30 years never seen engage in great or self-humiliation. many of the republican candidates have again out of their way to take a tw

cruz who he doesn't like and whom ted cruz shouldn't respect him.s the danger that i think the republican party is facing. but also i think this. i think at this point, you are starting to see levels of fear that were unheard of just a couple of months ago. georgia wasn't supposed to be in play. they're still tied. that's insane for georgia. you have got florida that's now in play. places that previously the republicans thought we can lock this up and put our money in other places. if they have a fight all over the map for the next 55 days, they're in trouble. no way you can cover that much ground. >> heidi, thank you so much. >>> when we come back, the two-track government in action. new reporting from nbc news reveals that the government has two very different reactions to north korea's decision to continue to make nuclear weapons. wool we'll tell you about it after the break. i can't believe it. that everything sticks to stefon diggs's hands? no, i can't believe how easy it was to save hundreds of dollars on my car insurance with geico. cool, huh

host: here is ted -- ted cruz's ad. >> he is showing up across texas sharing his wit. >> his wisdom. >> what the -- are these guys doing. >> and his character. if he shows up in your town, keep the kids at home. he is showing the -- up. a decidedly different approach. >> it is, trying to be funny there, little more lighthearted than the previous ad we saw. i think if you look at some of the digital ad like that, they are trying to pull the this is night deficit is serious person who could be a serious represent of of the people from texas and that he is something of a lightweight either when it comes or maybe on actual substance or policy. i think that the message they're trying to convey there. i think that's one of the more lighthearted approach is to it. some of the outside forces backing both of these candidates up in the next few weeks? >> on the cruise side there are two super pac's already in the race. once formed by former crew strategist and then you have the national group that took a big gamble on him in 2012 at first and helped him have that huge victory in the 2012 prima

. >> ted cruz isn't hip and cool. his new trick is the go to those place, poll a rally, get people the show up and say the things they like to hear. >> i'm concerned about the polls. i don't necessarily know where they are polling people at. dpl there a >> are people coming out in el paso. >> i don't see one ted cruz sign. i'm concerned if ted cruz wants to win this race where's his people at. >> you go to some of the reddest places in texas, places like abile abilene, so reliablely red, you can sew it glowing from outer space. there's really something very special happening in texas right now. it may be reflected in follows. >> i talk to a lot of people. i've never met one person who has been polled. who are they polling, the illegal immigrants? >> to every one who gave me a chance to succeed, i'm going to make the absolute most of it right now. >> three minutes after the hour, robert francis o'rourke feels it's very american to take a knee. >> i can think of nothing more more than than to peacefully stand up or take

we just did a segment on ted cruz's wife being confronted and i got this text.nfront ryan zinke?fr "a good question. i think we know. the fight over brett kavanaugh feels like something brand-new in american politics in someodst ways. the willingness to destroy him personally andre to overthrow every norm of fairness and due process to do that seems like a sign of sickness, honestly, in our society come overkn maybe oe that is building for a while.t' victor davis hanson has been following this, a senior fellow at hoover, he just wrote a piece entitled "we are living 1984." what you mean, we are living "1984"? >> i think what we are doing a systematically destroying 2500 years of western jurisprudence and three centuries of american law onwe the basis that if the supreme court, so it special, where it's not a criminal case, so these rules don't apply and we forget that thes constitution is our secular bible. whether you are are under examination in little league or grammar school, we get inspiration for every process in our country, daily lives are based on the i

ted cruz, people remarked on twitter that ted cruz didn't sound like ted cruz today.ounded a little measured, a little more moderate, a little rueful about the current state of politics. had people wondering is that because of how tight things are with beto o'rourke? >> i think so. for ted cruz to be talking about the politics of personal destruction is pretty rich. when he came to the senate and what he specialized in and the reason he got such a bad reputation is he would just try to destroy people with completely unsubstantiated allegations, including members of the obama cabinet and even his colleagues. so he's scurrying back into some sort of zone. >> it wasn't democrats who didn't like ted cruz. it was republicans that didn't like ted cruz. >> right, right. the one that interests me is heidi heitkamp's race because her opponent, kevin cramer, he said that even if dr. ford, what happened to her actually happened. >> even if it was true. >> even if it was true that kavanaugh should still be confirmed. this is something that even the most conservative republican re

"breaking news, the airline passenger paparazzi captured the senator reading news clips about his campaign." well played, senator cruz. thanks for joining us. "ac 360" starts now. >>> good evening. today one of the biggest celebrities of the last half century was handcuffed and taken to prison for sexually assaulting a woman. bill cosby's sentencing, a landmark in so many ways, is not our lead story. it is part of a conversation about women, justice, and politics and the perception so many people are having right now. we begin with another part of that conversation, and the sfakz could not stakes could not be higher. we're talking about the fight over supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh and the two accuser

election. >> lying ted.. he's a lying guy. he can lie with the best of them. >> donald, you're a sniffling coward, leave heidi alone. >> this man is a pathological liar. >> and a group of activists want ted cruz voters to never forget that. they put out a billboard and it's billboards have not yet gone up but it reads this trump tweet from 2016, why would the people of texas support ted cruz when he has accomplished nothing for them. he's another all talk no action man. a group of activists are raising money to put that up as a billboard. how does it work then for donald trump to come down and do a stump speech for ted cruz and not have democrats just run that on a loop while he's doing it? >> well, i think they're going to do it and there's already people with many of these quotes on movable billboards and they're going to throw it back in his face. let's face it, when you have a guy that's lying about what it is approaching 5,000 falsehoods in his administration and he calls you a liar, that's saying somet

i live and work in the city and son-in-law of ted nasser. i'm against big, franchised business, but given the fact that -- i don't look at corepower as the mcdonald's or the burger kings of the world. they bring great energy, positive impact, health benefits to the neighborhood. definitely a fan of it. the price is right, versus what the market is. look at the situation as a hole and that my in-laws are dependent on this, thank you very much. >> i'm lawrence israel. i'm in support of corepower yoga because i do yoga myself. so i think that is promoting good health benefits in the community and i also live and work in the city. >> president hillis: thank you very much. >> i wanted to say that i support core yoga. there's not a lot of places that offer that kind of stuff to do at that time of the evening. and it's needed and i think it's something that can touch lives. thank you. >> president hillis: thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi. i'm bryce waxell. i work in the city and fully support core yoga. it's a benefit to the neighborhood and

senator ted cruz for participatinparticipating in th. looking forward to the discussion. , amy and i were in booker, texas. we were surprised as we were going door to door to hear in the number one concern from people in that community was the fate of dreamers. nearly 200,000 in the texas.f everyone there was concerned about his welfare. the factoncerned about that he just been sent back to a country who's language he didn't longer had family connections if he was successful long odds he'd be successful there and not here for texas. tane's no better people those of us here in this state, democrats andd independents. defining immigrant experience to laws inour immigration our own image. to ensure that we begin by dreamers from the fear of deportation by making them u.s. citizens so they can to their full potential to the success not just of themselves and their country.but to this the economist who studied it said we are would hundreds of if we deportollars them. we'll gain hundreds of billions to the positive. promised to has deport each

he's got even coffers, it seems with ted cruz.state that glows red, that should not happen. >> so is trump going to hurt him or help him? in terms of cruz? >> yeah, i'm not sure he's going to help him. with the approval rating for donald trump around 47. this is a state he carried by nine points. i'm not sure. add to that, this race is becoming the thing that people are descending on, as the opposition. we heard from michael cohen he will today. he said he will hold his own rally in texas, the day donald trump holds his. so a lot of national attention on what people are saying. now, could be sort of a coming blue wave, led by congressman o'rourke, who may or may not be the face of the blue wave. certainly he is an energizing face for the democratic party. >> he is heading into the corners of conservism unabashedly with messages that one does not do necessarily typically or historically. >> he's been on the road for 34 days straight, visited all 254 counties in texas. three are usually democratic. he's going to the red areas, as he

earlier, ted cruz was up nine points.there any universe you see moving this from republican to toss up? >> not yet. not yet. yes, our poll did show o'rourke up by two over cruz, which caused some ripples. >> some ripples? >> somewhere in the margin of error. look at the polling averages. it has cruz up. what's significant, it's an actual race. who would have thought a year ago, two years ago, the senate race in texas with an incumben it would be. six weeks ahead of the election is what matters. >> republicans are going to be competitive if you have glowing media profiles on o'rourke, cruz and i know some of the people who are allies of his say he's been vilified in the media. no surprise it would be this close. >> they are trying to make themselves feel better. there's no secret, the republicans are not happy about the resources putting into texas to save ted cruz, who the president doesn't like and they could be in missouri or north dakota, west virginia. these democratic held senate seats they want to pick off instead o
