>> Joe Biden has proven himself to be a disastrous pick for Centrist Democrats.
So as a result, they're in a scramble trying to find the proper replacement, who can really
represent their values and when the primary and hopefully be Donald Trump.
Well, there is a New York Times article that I highly recommend everyone looks into.
The title is, Anxious Democratic Establishment Asks, Is there Anybody Else?
>> I love the smell of panic by the establishment in the morning.
>> So let me give you a tasty taste of what this piece says, and then I'm gonna give you
the names that are floating around in establishment circles.
So, party leaders who are fatalistic about Democrats' chances in 2020 are musing about
possible late entrance to the race.
Sherrod Brown, Michelle Obama, with doubts rising about former Vice President Joe Biden's
ability to finance a multi state primary campaign.
His donations are drying up a little bit.
Persistent questions about Senator Elizabeth Warren's viability in the general election
and skepticism that Mayor Pete Buttigieg, out of South Bend Indiana, can broaden his
appeal beyond white voters.
Democratic leaders are engaging in a familiar rite, fretting about who is in the race and
longing for a white knight to enter the contest at the last minute.
So some of the names that are being floated and a lot of these are disastrous Hillary
Clinton.
There's Michael Bloomberg, Michelle Obama, John Kerry.
You also have some people floating the idea of Eric Holder running Sherrod Brown, Deval
Patrick.
And then at one point Deval Patrick response to all of these rumors and says, everyone
needs to calm down, it's early.
It's so early.
>> No, it's not.
You're about to lose.
So, right now, Warren is in the best position that's why Bloomberg cancelled fundraisers
for other Democrats cuz he's thinking of going in the race himself.
My favorite part of the story and there's so many great parts to this story is they
say that Democrats on Wall Street are worried about Elizabeth Warren so they're encouraging
Bloomberg to run because they think that their three voters might actually win the election.
Good luck with that, okay.
Yeah, Bloomberg coming in like a white knight saying don't worry billionaires.
I will save you.
I will not let any progressive do a well tax or give health care to Americans.
You think that's a winning strategy, you schmucks?
But in their world, they're so insulated.
They're in their little billionaire bubble and they think, yeah, Bloomberg is so popular.
I bet the country will love that billionaire who says we should protect other billionaires.
That's such a good idea.
Mike, you gotta get in, Mike.
For all the billionaires out there, there's like seven of us or so I bet we win the election.
Okay, good luck with them.
Come on, Mike.
The water's warm.
Come get your ass kicking, see how it turns out for you.
>> So the way that a establishment Democrats sell this, having someone else join late in
the race to represent the Centrist in the party is well only a Centrist could be Donald
Trump.
If Elizabeth Warren wins the nomination, she's 100% gonna lose to Donald Trump but here's
the thing.
First of all, we've been through this not too long ago.
And Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump she lost to a reality show clown, okay?
Where's his red nose every morning before he goes out there and embarrassed as the American
people.
And Hillary Clinton lost to that.
And so now you're gonna propose that Hillary Clinton run again?
No, go away.
Go enjoy your life.
Stop making ridiculous comments about other candidates while you're giving podcast interviews.
And I mean, there's a reason why you have people like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren,
at the top.
>> Yeah.
>> Pulling really well.
>> So the person apparently most seriously considering entering the race is Hillary Clinton.
>> God, it's just so annoying and devastating like go away.
>> So she's on a book tour.
And she's purposely as we told you Just a couple days ago.
When I saw her making the comments about like don't tell me to get back in the race, when
she tweeted that out, I said no, she's not joking, she's testing the waters, okay?
And so it turns out now the New York Times reporting yes testing the waters is seriously
considering it.
But her, okay, I get it.
Look if I was her, I'd want a rematch.
And I understand her drive and I understand her anger.
I understand all of that, right, and to some degree I respect it.
But for the Democratic donors to think, our white knight will come in and save us, it'll
be Hillary Clinton.
Because the country wants a centrist like Hillary.
We just did that election.
But see, that's what I'm talking about, guys.
There's so biased, they can't see straight.
They think I got a genius idea.
The one person who could beat Donald Trump, is the one person who lost to Donald Trump.
They genuinely believe that, they genuinely believe it.
That's how insanely bias they are.
Then they're like, you guys, you well, you want to help the average American so you're
bias?
No, well, that's kinda how you win elections.
So now let me get to the rest of them.
Now, John Kerry lost the George W Bush.
And he's like, maybe I should enter the race, Biden's faltering.
And so they think, Biden had a couple of missteps.
No, it isn't about the missteps, if it was about the missteps, so why isn't Kamala Harris
doing amazing.
There's 25 people in the race or there was at one point, why isn't any of the other establishment
candidates doing great?
Why is it club charging?
Great John Delaney?
Why is John Hickenlooper?
Why do you get embarrassed and get run out of town because your idea suck.
And they're not popular.
But they're like no, no, no, no, no, no.
If Biden said the right sentences, then he would win.
But it's because he had a little misstatement and that's why Biden is losing.
No, Biden is now beginning to lose.
And every other establishment candidate is losing, because we don't like your ideas of
only helping the rich and only helping your donors.
Well, now they should be excited about Buttigieg, right.
First of all, another underlying theme of this article is Kamala Harris is done.
All these donors loved Kamala Harris.
They've not totally given up on her.
Okay, and they thought as perfect, this is gonna lead to another part of this.
That's an African American we can hide behind, okay.
And now that damn it, we couldn't hide behind her.
If you notice through the people that they mentioned, African Americans.
If you notice their criticism of Buttigieg was we liked them a lot and he would definitely
protect our money, but he's not doing well with African American voters.
So, can we find another African American to hide behind Deval Patrick.
Deval Patrick, where are you, right?
So, now look, I'm not blaming the people they named they're not in the race, right?
So I'm not blaming Deval Patrick, Michelle Obama or anyone else or Eric Holder.
Now if they get in to be a white knight for the rich donors, well, that's a different
issue, okay.
But right now they haven't done that, it's not their fault, but these rich donors are
looking around, looking around.
And so apparently their worried about Buttigieg too.
So if your worried about every single establishment candidate in the race, why do you think a
different establishment candidate will do any better?
It isn't about the misstatements, it's about the substance and the policy.
>> Exactly, I mean when we're dealing with a widening, inequality gap, when we're dealing
with people who are struggling to put food on the table for their kids, who are going
bankrupt because of the high cost of health care.
Telling American voters we're not gonna do much for you because its too hard is not a
message that any one buying, its not message that inspires people, gets them to the polls.
You gotta give them something to vote for.
And I feel like the establishment Democrats are still in the mindset of we're gonna run
against Trump, that's our message.
We're gonna run against Trump but that's not good enough.
You need to inspire people, you need to give them something to vote for.
>> Two last things as.
The New York Times, it's actually a great story, I'm glad they did it.
That's why we care about the reporting, care about good reporting.
But it is missing important context.
They say well one of the other times people were looking for a white knight was back in
2004 when Howard Dean was the leading candidate.
I wonder why those are the two times that the rich Democratic donors panicked when Howard
Dean who was at the time a strong progressive had the lead.
And now when Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are in the top three, and Warren is taking
the lead, progressives have the lead.
And again, the rich donors panic.
But yet the article is written like, they're just worried for no reason.
They're worried that they might not be able to be Trump.
No, they're worried about the money.
They're worried about progressives actually winning and that affecting their taxes and
all the other things they care about.
Write about it in reality.
In the real world, the billionaire donors on Wall Street are concerned that the progressive
might actually win.
And finally I get to Sherrod Brown.
What a deep, deep disappointment.
And also the unions.
So what people don't tell you is they say, the union's negotiated so hard to get these
healthcare benefits for their workers and they care about their workers, do they?
Because in Bernie Sanders proposals in the Medicare for All bill, and another bill that
he proposed, what would happen is all those gains that they negotiated for would then
go into their salary.
Well, the union workers would love that.
They would have free health care and they'd have a much higher salary.
But the union leaders who also make money from selling insurance would have less money.
>> Can I also jump in on that real quick, because healthcare shouldn't be tied to anyone's
job.
And for people who are making this argument about how the unions negotiated hard and they
got the health care that they deserve, keep in mind that those striking GM workers lost
their health care coverage because they were striking.
And by the way their pensions are in jeopardy all of those things.
So again, it shouldn't be tied to the work that you do, and that healthcare can be snatched
away in a heartbeat.
And that's exactly what happened to those striking workers.
>> I understand why some of the corrupt democrats who take money from the unions would want
to protect some of the corrupt union leaders.
I don't understand why the reporters want to protect them.
You guys want to do any stories about how the union's make a ton of money from health
insurance, and that perhaps that might be their motivation?
Haven't heard a peep, apparently.
Now look, I gave a New York Times credit earlier, but they can't find an investigative reporter
in the building to go chase that down Washington Post.
Where are you You think that Sherrod Brown is the Union's man in the Senate.
Now that leads him to being progressive on a lot of issues.
But at the end the day when the Unions give him all his money, say, hey, boy, we want
you to be against Medicare for All.
Sherrod Brown comes in.
Now in this article, he's like, well, we can't have a candidate who's for Medicare for All.
We can't have people getting health care in this country.
What happened?
I thought you were a big progressive, it turns out you're not a big progressive, you just
do the same thing as other politicians do.
You go where the money is.
it's just in your case instead of corporate money, it's union money.
That's why you got to get all of the money out.
Wolf-pack.com.
Until you get the money out, see Wolf Pack is not part of they don't give a damn.
They can take the corporate money out, they're going to take the union money out, they're
gonna take the Koch Brothers money out.
And they're also gonna take the source money out, that's why both Republicans and Democrat
voters, not politicians, the politicians hate Wolf PAC, but the voters love it because they
want all this corrupted money out.
So, Sherrrod Brown is no, no, no, I'm innocent.
Listen I'm innocent.
I take union money, not corporate money, and I do as they tell me.
That is not innocent, and if Sherrod Brown gets into this race, it'll be the worst mistake
of his life.
He'll be embarrassed, he'll get zero percent vote, and we'll know exactly where he stands.
