OVER
OVER THE
OVER THE TOP. BUT WE'LL SEE.
HE HAS UNDER ESTIMATED HIM THE
WHOLE WAY.
WHOLE WAY. THAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT OF HIS
RACE.
RACE.
RACE. >>
RACE. >> IN MANY WAYS IT WAS A
NATIONAL RACE, WHETHER ALL THAT
MONEY WOULD PLAY IN TEXAS.
>> EXCEPT HE RAISED IT ON HIS
OWN AND HE DID TRY TO KEEP IT
TEXAS -- LOOK THE NATIONAL
DEMOCRATS STAYED AWAY.
THEY FIGURED ANY -- WHAT GOOD
WERE THEY GOING TO DO?
IT'S EXPENSIVE ANYWAY.
HE DIDN'T NEED THE MONEY.
HE RAISED MORE MONEY THAN I
THINK ANY PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
IN A HISTORY AND PRIMARY OTHER
THAN OBAMA AND CLINTON.
IT'S AN ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNT OF
MONEY HE RAISED WHO ISN'T
PERSONALLY WEALTHY.
PERSONALLY WEALTHY. >> WE HAVE TO TAKE A BREAK.
WE WILL SHOW YOU OUR HOUSE
METER, NBC NEWS PROJECTING AN
80% CHANCE THE DEMOCRATS WILL
REACH THAT NUMBER OF 23 AND TAKE
CONTROL OF THE UNITED STATES

BROKAW.
BROKAW. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY
TELL US WHAT DIVIDED GOVERNMENT
WILL LOOK LIKE THAN WHAT YOU
HAVE SEEN THE LAST TWO YEARS?
>> IT'S GOING TO LOOK UGLY.
AND BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE ARE
TWO YEARS AWAY FROM A
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. THERE IS A LOT OF FEELING WE
NEED TO GET EVEN WITH THESE GUYS
ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE TALKING
ABOUT THE REPUBLICANS.
THE REPUBLICANS ARE SAYING
DEMOCRATS ARE TOTALLY OUT OF
SYNC WITH THE COUNTRY AND THE
VALUES AND WHAT THEY STAND FOR.
SO IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH.
AND YOU'VE GOT TO REMEMBER,
THERE ARE A COUPLE THINGS GOING
ON.
ON.
ON. ONE
ON. ONE IS THAT THERE IS A
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION COMING UP
IN TWO YEARS.
GIVEN THE PACE OF CAMPAIGNS
THESE DAYS.
THESE DAYS. THEY START IMMEDIATELY.
>> TOMORROW.
>> TOMORROW. >> PEOPLE ARE RAISING MONEY,
FIGURING OUT WHAT TO DO.
THE DEMOCRATS HAVE TO FIGURE OUT
WHO THEY ARE AT THIS POINT.
YOU KNOW, THE FACT IS THAT
DONALD TRUMP CAMPAIGNING THE WAY
HE DID HOLDING HIS MESSAGE, AS
SECURELY AS HE DID HAS A CROWD
OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO WILL
FOLLOW HIM OVER A CLIFF, IF
NECESSARY.
NECESSARY. >> COULD YOU ARGUE THAT HE HAS
ALREADY BEEN CAMPAIGNING, THAT
THESE RALLIES WE WATCHED OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS, WHILE
THEY ARE OSTENSIBLY ON BEHALF OF
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES, IT'S
ABOUT ME?
ABOUT ME?
ABOUT ME? >> HIS WHOLE LIFE HAS BEEN ABOUT
HIM.
HIM.
HIM. HE
HIM. HE WON.
HE WON.
HE WON. I
HE WON. I WILL MAKE MYSELF THE ISSUE
HERE AND HE DID AND HE DOES.
I HAVE BEEN OUT THERE IN THE
WEST TALKING TO PEOPLE WHO
BELIEVE IN HIM.
THERE IS NO KIND OF GIVE
WHATSOEVER.
WHATSOEVER. THEY THINK HE'S OUR GUY AND HE'S
HELPED BY THE ECONOMY AT THIS
POINT.
POINT.
POINT. SO
POINT. SO WE ARE IN FOR A DIVIDED TIME
FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS AT
LEAST AND HOVERING OVER ALL THIS
AS I SAID EARLIER IS THE SPECIAL
PROSECUTOR.
PROSECUTOR. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT ROBERT
MUELLER IS GOING TO HAVE TO SAY.
>> TO YOUR POINT, TOM, IF THERE
IS A BATTLE FOR THE HEART AND
SOUL OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NOW
AND WHO IT IS, DOES THAT BATTLE
ESSENTIALLY TAKE PLACE IN THE
PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY AND WHAT
DOES THAT MEAN FOR ITS PROSPECTS
OF WINNING BACK THE WHO US?
>> WELL, IT MEANS THERE WILL BE
A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO THINK HE
OUGHT TO BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT
ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE.
THEY WILL BE DIVIDED IN MANY
PARTS.
PARTS.
PARTS. IN
PARTS. IN BETO O'ROURKE PULLS THIS OFF.
HE WILL AUTOMATICALLY GO TO THE
TOP OF A TIER OF SOME KIND.
IT'S TEXAS.
IT'S TEXAS. HE'S AN APPEALING GUY.
THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE
-- THERE IS NO EFFORT ON THE
PART OF NANCY PELOSI OR CHUCK
SCHUMER FOR THAT PART FOR THAT
MATTER TO PULL THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY TOGETHER AT SOME RETREAT
SAYING WE GOT TO GET OUR ACT
TOGETHER, FOLKS.
TOGETHER, FOLKS. WE INSURANCE WE ARE A PART OF
THIS.
THIS.
THIS. WE
THIS. WE LOST THREE ELECTIONS IN A
ROW.
ROW.
ROW. NOW
ROW. NOW IT'S TIME FOR US TO STEP
ASIDE AND HAVE NEW LEADERSHIP.
THEY'RE NOT INCLINED TO DO THAT.
THEY THINK THEY CAN LEAD THEM TO
THE PROMISED LAND.
>> LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, IF
THIS IS A NARROW HOUSE MAJORITY
FOR THE DEMOCRATS, IF THEY PICK
IT UP NORTH OF 23 BUT LESS THAN
35, I DON'T IT'S A GIVEN SHE'S A
SPEAKER.
SPEAKER.
SPEAKER. I THINK THAT CHANGES THE
EQUATION IN THE HOUSE FOR THE
VERY REASON YOU JUST SAID, YOU
WHETHER HAVE THE PEOPLE THAT GOT
THERE SAYING, HEY, DO WE NEED TO
THINK ABOUT A DIFFERENT
DIRECTION?
DIRECTION? >> DOES IT
