THE QUESTION IS WILL THESE
BE WHAT THE REPUBLICANS NEED TO
HOLD BACK THE BLUE WAVE?
KEVIN WALLING AND RON MEYER.
AN ARTICLE IN THE "JOURNAL"
SAYING 15 OF THE 20 MOST OF
MANUFACTURING INTENSIVE
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS WERE
REPRESENTED BY DEMOCRATS.
THAT NUMBER IS 20 OF 20 BY
REPUBLICANS.
THEY ARE IN KEY STATES.
AND YET I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE
STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD OFF THE
BLUE WAVE.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?
>> SOME OF THESE DISTRICTS ARE
PLACES WHERE THE TARIFFS ARE
PLANTS WHERE REOPENING.
I THINK THAT'S WHY THE
THE DEMOCRATIC STRATEGY.
THEY HAD AN URBAN STRATEGY
FOCUSED ON BUILDING UP THE
CITIES AND WINNING THE CITIES.
BLOWN UP.
AND WITH HIS ECONOMIC APPROACH
HE'S RUNNING UP THE SCORE WITH
300,000 NEW MANUFACTURING JOBS
SINCE ELECTION BASE HAS HAD A
DIFFERENT STRATEGY OBJECT TRADE
AND THE TAX REFORM.
CHARLES: 400,000 MANUFACTURING
JOBS OPEN RIGHT NOW.
THAT'S A 400% INCREASE FROM
OF OF THESE STATES ARE LOWER
THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
>> ABSOLUTELY NOT.
YOU ARE SEEING DEMOCRATS COMPETE
TRUMP WON THAT DISTRICT BY 20
POINTS.
HEALTHCARE, AND WAS ABLE TO WIN
THAT DISTRICT FOR THE DEMOCRATS
FOR A LONG TIME HELD BY THE
REPUBLICANS.
WE ARE SEEING THAT TAKE PLACE
CHARLES: THE PITTSBURGH AREA
KNOWN FOR MANUFACTURING.
BUT IT ISN'T LIKE THAT ANY MORE.
HILLARY WON PITTSBURGH AND
PHILLY, AND LOST THE REST OF THE
STATE.
THESE ARE THE BLUE COLLAR
WORKHORSE VOTED FOR OBAMA.
SO HAS PRESIDENT TRUMP DONE
ENOUGH TO SOLIDIFY THEM?
OF LOSING BUT THEY LOVE WING
UNDER TRUMP.
TRUMP HAS BROUGHT BACK JOBS IN
TERMS OF FISCAL POLICY,
DEREGULATION, TALKING ABOUT
TARIFFS, FREE TRADE AND FAIR
TRADE.
THEY LIKE WHAT THEY SEE IN
DONALD TRUMP, NOT BECAUSE OF THE
TALK OR ANYTHING ELSE OTHER THAN
HE HAS KEPT HIS PROMISE TO THEM.
THE FORGOTTEN WORKING MEN AND
WOMEN OF AMERICA.
CHARLES: THAT'S THE QUESTION
HERE.
IF THERE IS GOING TO BE A WAVE
BIG ENOUGH FOR THE DEMOCRATS TO
TAKE BACK THE HOUSE, HOW DO THEY
COUNTER THAT DISCUSSION?
NARRATIVE?
>> HEALTHCARE WILL BE THE KEY
ISSUE FOR US HEADING INTO THE
FALL.
4 MILLION AMERICANS LOST THEIR
HEALTHCARE UNDER PRESIDENT
TRUMP.
YOU HAVE SEEN DEMOCRATS WORKING
WITH THIS PRESIDENT AND FOLKS
DESTROY IT IN THE WAKE OF THESE
4 MILLION AMERICANS LOSING THEIR
HEALTHCARE.
THAT'S A CRITICAL ISSUE HEADING
INTO NOVEMBER.
>> DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO RUN ON
HEALTHCARE?
>> OBAMACARE IS FAILING BECAUSE
IT'S AGAINST SABOTAGE BY THE
REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS AND BY
THIS PRESIDENT.
CUTTING EVEN THE ADVERTISING
DOLLARS FOR SIGNING UP FOR
AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE.
>> YOU HAVE GOT TO MANUFACTURE A
NEW OUTRAGE.
CHARLES: I DON'T KNOW IF THEY
SHOULD CALL IT THE AFFORDABLE
