IN LOS ANGELES. >> THANKS, YOU GUYS.
>> I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW
IT’S WORKING.
IT’S WORKING. >> TELL EVERYBODY THEIR $5 IS IN
THE MAIL.
THE MAIL. >>> WELL, IT’S ALL OVER.
ON THE FINAL DAY OF THE MID-TERM
ELECTION CAMPAIGN TODAY DONALD
TRUMP REVEALED HE HAD NO IDEA
MID-TERM ELECTIONS EVEN EXISTED
UNTIL HE BECAME PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
UNITED STATES. >> THE MID-TERM ELECTIONS USED
TO BE, LIKE, BORING, DIDN’T
THEY?
THEY? DO YOU EVEN REMEMBER WHAT THEY
WERE?
WERE? PEOPLE SAY MID-TERMS, WHAT IS
THAT, RIGHT?
THAT, RIGHT? NOW IT’S LIKE THE HOTTEST THING.
>> MID-TERMS, WHAT IS THAT?
SO APPARENTLY IN THE TRUMP
FAMILY IF ANYONE OVERHEARD
SOMEONE SAYING THE PHRASE
MID-TERM ELECTIONS, A TRUMP
WOULD SAY WHAT IS THAT.
DONALD TRUMP’S IGNORANCE OF THE
PROCS HAS GIVEN EXPERIENCED
REPUBLICANS EVEN MORE TO FEAR
TOMORROW.
TOMORROW. POLITICO REPORTS THAT HOUSE
SPEAKER PAUL RYAN GOT PRESIDENT
DONALD TRUMP ON THE PHONE SUNDAY
FOR ONE FINAL PLEA ON BEHALF OF
ANXIOUS REPUBLICAN, PLEASE,
PLEASE TALK UP THE BOOMING
ECONOMY IN THE FINAL HOURS
BEFORE ELECTION DAY.
BUT DONALD TRUMP HAS NOT DONE
THAT.
THAT. INSTEAD DONALD TRUMP HAS TALKED
ABOUT THE THINGS THAT GET THE
BIGGEST CHEERS FROM HIS TRUE
BELIEVERS ON THE CAMPAIGN
TRAIL -- HATRED AND FEAR.
SOME ANALYSTS MAKE THE MISTAKE
OF USING THE WORD "STRATEGY"
WHEN TALKING ABOUT WHAT COMES
OUT OF DONALD TRUMP’S MOUTH.
STRATEGY ACTUALLY REQUIRES
COGNITIVE PROCESSES THAT THE
PRESIDENT DOES NOT POSSESS, AND
SO HE ALWAYS SAYS WHATEVER
OCCURS TO HIM IN THE MOMENT HE
IS SPEAKING.
IS SPEAKING. AND WHEN HE’S QUESTIONED ABOUT
THINGS HE SAYS AND DOES, HIS
REPLIES ARE RARELY BETTER THAN
THE PECHTULANT 4-YEAR-OLD.
TODAY A REPORTER ASKED THE
PRESIDENT ABOUT A CAMPAIGN AD
LAUNCHED BY REPUBLICANS THAT IS
SO RACIST -- DON’T TAKE MY WORD
FOR IT -- SO RACIST THAT EVEN
FOX NEWS, YES, FOX NEWS, REFUSED
TO RUN THAT AD.
THE AD IS A HYSTERICAL HATEFUL
ATTACK ON PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN
SLOWLY AND HARMLESSLY WALKING
NORTH THROUGH MEXICO.
THE QUESTION TO THE PRESIDENT
WAS A LOT OF FOLKS HAVE SAID
THAT AD WAS OFFENSIVE, WHY DID
YOU LIKE THAT AD?
WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO SAY?
AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES SAID, WELL, A LOT OF
THINGS ARE OFFENSIVE.
THE PRESIDENT DID NOT DENY THAT
HIS AD IS OFFENSIVE.
NOT A BIT.
HE EMBRACED THE OFFENSIVENESS OF
THE AD AND DEFENDED THE
OFFENSIVENESS OF THE AD BY
SAYING, A LOT OF THINGS ARE
OFFENSIVE.
OFFENSIVE. THAT IS EXACTLY THE WAY THE
COUNTRY FEELS ABOUT DONALD
TRUMP.
TRUMP. A LOT OF THINGS ABOUT HIM ARE
OFFENSIVE.
OFFENSIVE. THE FINAL NBC NEWS WALL STREET
JOURNAL POLL OF THE CAMPAIGN
SHOWS THAT 54% OF VOTERS SAY THE
COUNTRY IS ON THE WRONG TRACK.
ONLY 38% OF VOTERS SAY THE
UNITED STATES IS ON THE RIGHT
TRACK.
TRACK. AND THE WRONG TRACK THAT THE
COUNTRY IS ON IS THE TRUMP
TRACK.
TRACK. THE OFFENSIVE TRACK THAT IS THE
DAILY HISTORY OF THE TRUMP
PRESIDENCY.
PRESIDENCY. AND TOMORROW IS THE DAY AMERICA
WILL HAVE ITS FIRST CHANCE TO
CHANGE THAT TRACK.
THAT FINAL NBC POLL SHOWS THAT
DEMOCRATS HOLD A 7 POINT
NATIONAL ADVANTAGE OVER
REPUBLICANS.
REPUBLICANS. 50% PREFER A DEMOCRATIC
CONTROLLED CONGRESS.
CONTROLLED CONGRESS. 43% WANT REPUBLICANS TO STAY IN
CHARGE.
CHARGE. SO WHO’S GOING TO WIN TOMORROW
NIGHT?
NIGHT? THE POLLS SEEM TO BE TELLING US
THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE A BETTER
CHANCE OF WINNING THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES TOMORROW NIGHT
THAN THE REPUBLICANS DO, BUT
THEY STILL BOTH -- BOTH PARTIES
HAVE A CHANCE.
AND THE POLLS SEEM TO BE TELLING
US THAT THE REPUBLICANS HAVE A
BETTER CHANCE THAN THE DEMOCRATS
DO OF WINNING THE SENATE.
BUT BOTH PARTIES STILL HAVE A
CHANCE.
CHANCE. AND SO THE TRUTH IS WE’RE NOT
GOING TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS
TOMORROW NIGHT UNTIL IT HAPPENS
TOMORROW NIGHT.
TOMORROW NIGHT. CAN YOU WAIT?
CAN YOU WAIT THE 24 HOURS?
WE WILL PROCEED WITH THIS
PROGRAM’S FINAL HOUR OF
DISCUSSION BEFORE THE VOTES ARE
CAST WITH THE GOLDMAN PRINCIPLE
AS OUR STARTING POINT.
WILLIAM GOLDMAN IS THE TWO-TIME
OSCAR WINNING.
OSCAR WINNING. IN 1983 WILLIAM GOLDMAN
PUBLISHED WHAT REMAINS, THE
SINGLE BEST VOLUME EVER WRITTEN
ABOUT SHOW BUSINESS AND HOW IT
WORKS, ADVENTURES IN THE SCREEN
TRADE.
TRADE. THE MOST PROFOUND LINE OF
WILLIAM GOLDMAN’S BOOK IS ALSO
THE MOST MEMORABLE, NOBODY KNOWS
ANYTHING.
ANYTHING. YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE IN SHOW
BUSINESS VERY LONG BEFORE YOU
REALIZE THAT STATEMENT ACTUALLY
IS.
IS. NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING.
HERE IS THE FULL CONTEXT, THE
FULL STATEMENT OF THE GOLDMAN
PRINCIPLE BY WILLIAM GOLDMAN.
NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING, NOT ONE
PERSON IN THE ENTIRE MOTION
PICTURE FIELD KNOWS FOR
CERTAINTY WHAT’S GOING TO WORK.
EVERY TIME OUT IT’S A GUESS, AND
IF YOU’RE LUCKY AND EDUCATED.
SO NOW WE WILL PROCEED TO OUR
EDUCATED GUESSES OF WHAT WE WILL
BE SEEING 24 HOURS FROM NOW WHEN
THE VOTES ARE BEING COUNTED.
AND LEADING US OFF TONIGHT MARIA
KUMAR, MICHAEL STEEL, FORMER
CHAIRMAN OF THE NATIONAL
COMMITTEE AND MSNBC ANALYST.
JENNIFER PALMERI.
JENNIFER PALMERI. AND JENNIFER, LET’S START WITH
YOU.
YOU. WE KNOW WHAT THE POLLS ARE
INDICATING BASED ON EVERYTHING
YOU WERE SEEING.
WHERE DO YOU THINK WE WILL BE 24
HOURS FROM NOW?
>> SO THAT’S 10:00 EASTERN
TOMORROW NIGHT.
TOMORROW NIGHT. I BET YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE --
WE’LL BE CLOSE TO HAVING A
DEMOCRATIC HOUSE DECLARED, BUT
YOU HAVE IT DECLARED BUT YOU’LL
BE CLOSE TO HAVING IT DECLARE.
AND I SUSPECT YOU’LL HAVE A
DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR IN THE
STATES OF FLORIDA AND GEORGIA AT
THAT POINT.
THAT POINT. >> MICHAEL STEELE, WE HAD THE
WASHINGTON REPUBLICANS AND THE
PERSON OF PAUL RYAN CALLING THE
PRESIDENT SAYING PLEASE, COULD
YOU PLEASE MENTION THE ECONOMY?
IT’S THE ONE THING WHERE OUR
NUMBERS LOOK PRETTY GOOD, BUT
THE PRESIDENT DOESN’T HAVE ANY
FUN APPARENTLY MENTIONING THE
ECONOMY.
ECONOMY. >> NO, OF COURSE NOT.
41% UNEMPLOYMENT, AND, YOU KNOW,
WAGES GOING UP AND ALL THAT GOOD
STUFF.
STUFF. WHY TALK ABOUT THAT WHEN YOU CAN
TALK ABOUT SCARING PEOPLE AND
REALLY PUSHING THE PARTY AND ITS
LEADERSHIP TO THE BRINK OF A
COMPLETE COLLAPSE TOMORROW.
AND THAT’S NOT AN EXAGGERATION.
THE INTERNAL POLLING THAT A
NUMBER OF REPUBLICAN
ORGANIZATIONS AND CAMPAIGNS ARE
SEEING, THEY’RE NERVOUS.
IT’S WHY THE SPEAKER MADE THE
PHONE CALL ON SUNDAY.
HE DOESN’T MAKE THAT PHONE CALL
OUT OF THE BLUE, LAWRENCE, AS
YOU KNOW HAVING WORKED ON THE
HILL.
HILL. YOU KNOW WHEN A CALL LIKE THAT
GOES FROM THE CAPITOL TO THE
WHITE HOUSE THERE’S SOMETHING
AFOOT AS THEY SAY.
>> AND ECONOMIC STATISTICS LOOK
REALLY GOOD.
REALLY GOOD. THEY LOOK AS GOOD AS THE
COMPARABLE PERIOD IN THE TRUMP
PRESIDENCY, THE LAST 20, 21
MONTHS -- I’M SORRY, THE OBAMA
PRESIDENCY.
PRESIDENCY. THEY’RE VERY GOOD NUMBERS AM.
THE PRESIDENT DOESN’T TALK ABOUT
THEM MUCH.
THEM MUCH. AND EVEN WITH THOSE ECONOMIC
STATISTICS YOU HAVE 51% OF THE
COUNTRY SAYING THE COUNTRY IS ON
THE WRONG TRACK.
>> WHEN CONOR LAMB, THE DEMOCRAT
WHO WON A SPECIAL ELECTION IN
THE DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA
WHERE TRUMP WON BY 20 POINTS AND
THAOPPONENT WAS RUNNING ON TAX
RELIEF, THAT DIDN’T STICK.
WHAT STUCK WAS ANTI-IMMIGRATION.
SO ONCE THAT HAPPENED THEY
PIVOTED AFTER CONOR LAMB AND RAN
OVER 14,000 ANTI-IMMIGRANT ADS
TO RALLY UP THEIR BASE WHEN IT
CAME TO THE MID-TERM PRIMARY
ELECTIONS.
ELECTIONS. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY
REALIZED THAT STUCK.
IT WASN’T THE ECONOMY, IT WASN’T
JOBS.
JOBS. AND SO THAT IS ONE OF THE
REASONS WHY THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION IS GOING AFTER
REALLY COLD-HEARTEDLY
REALLY COLD-HEARTEDLY ANTI-IMMIGRANT.
ANTI-IMMIGRANT. BECAUSE THEY RECOGNIZE THAT THE
ECONOMY IS NOT TURNING PEOPLE
ON.
ON. IT’S THIS IDEA OF FEAR.
THAT IS ALL THEY HAVE TO OFFER
AND FUN LAERPTUNFORTUNATELY IT’S
PEOPLE NOT ONLY UNCOMFORTABLE
BUT SOME OF THESE COMMUNITIES
UNDER FIRE INSECURE.
AND THAT IS SOMETHING THEY’RE
GOING TO HAVE A HARD TIME
RECONCILING REGARDLESS OF WHAT
HAPPENS TOMORROW WITH THE REST
OF THE COUNTRY.
>> LET’S LISTEN TO BETO O’ROURKE
IN THAT CLOSING CASE IN TEXAS
WHERE A DEMOCRAT HASN’T BEEN
SUCCESSFUL SINCE LLOYD BENSON’S
RE-ELECTION TO THE SENATE.
>> WE HAVE DECIDED AS A CAMPAIGN
WE WILL ORGANIZE NOT AGAINST
SOMEONE ELSE, NOT AGAINST
ANOTHER POLITICAL PARTY, NOT
AGAINST ANYTHING.
AGAINST ANYTHING. WE ARE ORGANIZED FOR ONE
ANOTHER, FOR THIS GREAT COUNTRY,
FOR A FUTURE THAT INCLUDES EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF US, MAKING SURE
THAT WE CAN ALL LIVE TO OUR FULL
POTENTIAL.
POTENTIAL. >> JENNIFER, THE O’ROURKE
CAMPAIGN IS NOW THE DICTIONARY
DEFINITION OF POSITIVE
CAMPAIGNING.
CAMPAIGNING. >> YEAH, IT’S -- I MEAN, I WISH
HE CAN PULL IT OUT.
I HAVE BEEN.
IF YOU CHECK MY TWITTER FEED
I’VE BEEN PREDICTING FOR CLOSE
TO A YEAR THAT HE WILL WIN TEXAS
BECAUSE YOU DID SEE SUCH A NEW
STYLE OF CAMPAIGNING.
NOT JUST THAT IT’S POSITIVE BUT
THAT HE SORT OF THREW OUT THE
PLAY BOOK ABOUT WHERE DEMOCRATS
ARE SUPPOSED TO GO IN TEXAS AND
WENT TO EVERY SINGLE COUNTY AND,
YOU KNOW, WAS VERY GROUND UP IN
HIS STRATEGY.
HIS STRATEGY. AND I THINK THAT HAS SERVED --
FOR MANY, MANY MONTHS IT DIDN’T
LOOK LIKE HE WAS GETTING ANY
TRACTION, AND EVENTUALLY THAT
KIND OF ENTHUSIASM GETS
REFLECTED IN THE VOTERS THAT YOU
TALK TO AND KICKS THEM THAT WAY.
AND I HOPE HE’S ABLE TO GET OVER
THAT FINISH LINE.
IT’S A REALLY, REALLY DIFFICULT
STATE.
STATE. >> LET’S LISTEN TO DEMOCRAT
STACEY ABRAMS TODAY IN HER FINAL
DAY OF CAMPAIGNING FOR GOVERNOR
OF GEORGIA.
OF GEORGIA. >> LET’S BE CLEAR, I DON’T WANT
ANYONE TO VOTE FOR ME BECAUSE
I’M BLACK.
I’M BLACK. AND NO ON ONE ON THE BALLOT
NEEDS A VOTE BECAUSE WE’RE
WOMEN, AND I DON’T WANT YOU TO
VOTE FOR US JUST BECAUSE WE’RE
DEMOCRATS.
DEMOCRATS. YOU NEED TO VOTE FOR US BECAUSE
WE’RE BETTER.
WE’RE BETTER. >> SHE’S GREAT.
>> MICHAEL STEELE, YOU’RE
REACTION TO THAT.
>> THAT’S A GOOD MESSAGE,
LAWRENCE.
LAWRENCE. IT’S A POSITIVE MESSAGE, BUT
IT’S GEORGIA.
IT’S GEORGIA. AND SO THERE ARE A LOT OF
CURRENTS THAT RUN BENEATH THAT
SURFACE THAT SHE IS VERY AWARE
OF, WHICH IS WHY SHE FRAMED HER
CLOSING AND HAS BEEN FRAMING HER
CLOSING ARGUMENT THAT WAY.
DON’T DO THIS BECAUSE I’M BLACK,
BECAUSE SHE KNOWS THERE ARE A
LOT OF PEOPLE GOING TO PLAY THAT
IN A WAY THEY MAY WINK AND NOD
ABOUT HER ASCENDANCY TO
GOVERNORSHIP.
GOVERNORSHIP. DON’T DO IT, SAME REASON.
SHE’S AWARE OF HER BACKYARD AND
HOW THE INTRINSIC ELEMENTS OF
RACE STILL PERMEATE THROUGHOUT
CAMPAIGNS LIKE HERS.
SO HER FINAL ARGUMENT IS NONE OF
THAT MATTERS.
THAT MATTERS. WHAT MATTERS IS I’M GOOD.
I’M GOOD FOR THE PEOPLE OF
GEORGIA, I’M GOOD FOR THIS
COMMUNITY.
COMMUNITY. AND THE TEST WILL BE IN THIS NEW
SOUTH WHETHER IN A PLACE LIKE
GEORGIA A BLACK WOMAN CAN AWAKEN
THIS NEW FIRE, THIS NEW BRAND OF
POLITICS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER
IT’S PROGRESSIVE OR
CONSERVATIVE, DEMOCRAT OR
REPUBLICAN.
REPUBLICAN. AND PEOPLE BUY IT BECAUSE THEY
SEE THE PUBLIC SERVANT AS
SOMEONE WHO’S GOOD FOR THEM.
>> AND ANDREW GILLUM IS FACING A
SIMILAR TEST IN THE BORDERING
STATE OF FLORIDA TO GEORGIA.
LET’S LISTEN TO WHAT ANDREW
GILLUM SAID TODAY AS THE
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR
GOVERNOR.
GOVERNOR. >> THE REASON WHY WE’RE GOING TO
RED AREAS AND BLUE AREAS AND
PURPLE AREAS IS BECAUSE I WANT
THEM TO KNOW THAT I WANT TO BE
THEIR GOVERNOR, TOO.
AND WHEN YOU’RE GOVERNOR OF
FLORIDA YOU’VE GOT TO BE THE
GOVERNOR FOR ALL OF THE PEOPLE
OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA.
AND WHILE I GREET YOU AS
TALLAHASSEE’S MAYOR IT IS MY
HOPE THAT THE NEXT TIME WE SHARE
THE SAME AIR, THAT THE NEXT TIME
WE ARE IN COMMUNITY TOGETHER,
THAT THE NEXT TIME I VISIT THE
CITY BEAUTIFUL I WILL GREET YOU
AS THE GOVERNOR OF THE GREAT
STATE OF FLORIDA.
LET’S BRING IT HOME, Y’ALL.
>> MARIA, YOUR REACTION.
>> WHAT IS INTERESTING ABOUT
ANDREW, WHAT IS AMAZING ALSO
ABOUT THE OTHER TWO CANDIDATES,
WHETHER IT’S BETO OR STACEY
ABRAMS THEY HAVE BASICALLY
IDENTIFIED THEIR BASE SAYING,
YES, YOU ARE COMING ALONG WITH
ME BUT I AM GOING TO BE THE
SENATOR, THE GOVERNOR FOR
EVERYONE.
EVERYONE. AND THAT IS WHAT DONALD TRUMP
HAS FAILED TO DO AS PRESIDENT.
HE’S CONTINUED TO CAMPAIGN ONLY
FOR THE BASE AND HAS FAILED TO
UNIFY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
THIS IDEA OF UNITY, THAT, YES, I
MAY BE DIFFERENT -- I MAY NOT
AGREE WITH YOU ON ALL POLICIES
BUT YOU’RE REPRESENTING ME AT
THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY, AND
THAT IS WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
ARE LOOKING FOR.
WHEN I LOOK AT TEXAS I HAVE TO
SAY SINCE 2010 PEOPLE WERE
SAYING THEY WERE WASTING OUR
TIME.
TIME. IN 2014, LAWRENCE, WE REGISTERED
10,000 FOLKS.
10,000 FOLKS. THAT’S BECAUSE THERE’S A RENEWED
ENTHUSIASM WHERE PEOPLE FEEL
THEY’RE FINALLY IDENTIFYING WITH
SOMEONE WHO WILL NOT ONLY
LEGISLATE FOR A FEW BUT FOR
MANY.
MANY. AND THAT’S THE EXACT SAME THING
WHETHER WE’RE TALKING ABOUT
GEORGIA OR WHAT WE’RE TALKING
ABOUT RIGHT NOW IN FLORIDA.
AND THAT IS WHAT IS GOING TO BE
THE NARRATIVE COMING OUT OF THIS
MID-TERM ELECTION IS THAT THE
DEMOCRATS ACTUALLY FINALLY HAVE
A SLATE OF ENERGIZED TALENT THEY
DIDN’T BEFORE.
DIDN’T BEFORE. THE DEMOCRATS COMING OUT, WHO’S
THE NEW SLATE OF REINVIGORATED
BASE THAT THEY COULD HAVE ONLY
DREAMED OF BEFORE.
>> LET’S LISTEN TO PRESIDENT
OBAMA’S CLOSING CASE TODAY.
>> THE CHARACTER OF THIS COUNTRY
IS ON THE BALLOT.
WHO WE ARE IS ON THE BALLOT.
WHAT KIND OF POLITICS WE EXPECT
IS ON THE BALLOT.
HOW WE CONDUCT OURSELVES IN
PUBLIC LIFE IS ON THE BALLOT.
HOW WE TREAT OTHER PEOPLE IS ON
THE BALLOT.
THE BALLOT. AND THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT ALL
ACROSS THE COUNTRY WHAT I’M
SEEING IS THIS GREAT AWAKENING.
>> JENNIFER, HE’S CAMPAIGNING AS
IF THE NAME OBAMA IS ON THE
BALLOT.
BALLOT. >> WELL, I THINK IF YOU COMPARE
IT TO PRESIDENTS, IF YOU COMPARE
OBAMA AND TRUMP, OBAMA’S TAKEN
TO A VERY HIGH CONSETTLEMENTCEPT
KIND OF COUNTRY WE WANT TO BE.
AND TRUMP HAS ZEROED IN ON THE
MOST DIVISIVE ISSUE HE CAN FIND
TO DIVIDE US AND TO SCARE US AND
WITH AIMIMMIGRATION.
WITH AIMIMMIGRATION. IT’S INTERESTING, YOU TALKED
ABOUT THIS IN YOUR OPENING, HE
SEEMS TO BE HAVING SOME REGRETS
HOW HE’S ENGAGED IN THE
MID-TERMS.
MID-TERMS. I GUESS IT’S NEWS TO HIM THAT
THEY EXISTED, AND APPARENTLY HE
HANDLED IT IN A VERY DIFFERENT
WAY THAN MOST PRESIDENTS, WHICH
IS THEY KIND OF GO INTEPIDLY
UNDERSTANDING THEY CAN DO A LOT
OF DAMAGE.
OF DAMAGE. MID-TERMS ARE HARD FOR
PRESIDENTS, AND THEY MAY NOT BE
THAT POPULAR AND HAVE TO STAY
AWAY FROM PLACES AND BE CAREFUL
ABOUT THE ISSUES THEY RAISE.
AND INSTEAD HE DECIDED I’M GOING
ALL IN AND I’M GOING TO FOCUS ON
AN ISSUE THAT EXCITES MY BASE
AND TURNS OFF EVERYONE ELSE.
AND WHAT I’VE HEARD A LOT FROM
POLLSTERS THAT ARE WORKING ON
THESE RACES IS THAT, YES, IT’S
MOTIVATING TRUMP’S BASE, BUT IT
IS REALLY TURNING OFF
INDEPENDENT VOTERS AND MAYBE
SOFTER REPUBLICANS THAT ARE
UNEASY ABOUT THE WAY THE
PRESIDENT APPROACHES THESE
ISSUES.
ISSUES. AND IT’S HURTING HIM, AND I
THINK THAT’S WHAT YOU SAW --
THAT’S WHY PAUL RYAN WANTED TO
NOT JUST MAKE THE CALL DOWN TO
THE WHITE HOUSE TO ASK THE
PRESIDENT TO TALK ABOUT THE
ECONOMY BUT MAKE SURE ALL OF US
KNOW HE MADE THAT CALL TO THE
WHITE HOUSE TO TALK ABOUT THE
ECONOMY.
ECONOMY. SO WHEN THEY LOSE BIG PEOPLE
WILL KNOW THAT THEY SHOULD BLAME
THE WHITE HOUSE AND NOT THE
FORMER SPEAKER’S OFFICE.
>> WE HAVE JENNIFER’S PREDICTION
FOR A DEMOCRATIC WIN TOMORROW
FOR THE HOUSE AND
PARENTHETICALLY A BETO O’ROURKE
WIN.
WIN. MICHAEL STEELE, CAN’T LET YOU GO
ABOUT YOUR EDUCATED GUESS ABOUT
WHAT WE WILL SEE TOMORROW NIGHT.
>> DEMOCRATS, 27-35 SEAT
MAJORITY.
MAJORITY. THE SENATE HELD BY REPUBLICANS
BY ONE, MAYBE TWO.
>> MARIA TRACY, YOUR EDUCATED
GUESS.
GUESS. >> MY EDUCATED GUESS IS THAT
POLLS SUPPRESS THE VOTE.
