NEVADAANS WANT TO AVOID THAT SAME KIND OF DISASTER.
LIZ: JONATHAN HUNT.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. REPORTS COMING IN MODERATE HOUSE
DEMOCRATS IN DISTRICTS THE
PRESIDENT WON ARE DEEPLY WORRIED
DEMOCRATS COULD LOSE CONTROL OF
THE HOUSE ACCORDING TO
"THE HILL" MAGAZINE.
WHY?
WHY? IF BERNIE SANDERS BECOMES THE
NOMINEE.
NOMINEE. THE DEMOCRAT ESTABLISHMENT SAYS
UNITE BEHIND A MODERATE.
"POLITICO" IS REPORTING WHAT
WE’VE BEEN WARNING FOR TWO
YEARS.
YEARS. NANCY PELOSI ORDERING DEMOCRATS,
STAY AWAY PRO IMPEACHMENT.
SWITCH AWAY PRO IMPEACHMENT
TOWARDS THE ECONOMY.
NANCY PELOSI ATTACK IT THAT IT
IS NOT AS STRONG AS THE
PRESIDENT CLAIMS.
PRESIDENT CLAIMS. FORMER TRUMP 2016 CAMPAIGN
MANAGER.
MANAGER. LOOK WHO IS HERE, COREY
LEWANDOSKI.
LEWANDOSKI. GREAT TO SEE YOU.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
>> YOUR REACTION TO THE
PRESIDENT’S BUDGET GOING AFTER
THE SAFETY NET AND ROGER STONE
SENTENCING DOES THIS DISTRACT
FROM THE PRESIDENT’S ECONOMIC
MESSAGE?
MESSAGE? >> I DON’T THINK SO.
WE’RE STILL LEARNING INFORMATION
ABOUT THE ROGER STONE SENTENCING
THAT THE DECISION WAS MADE PRIOR
TO THE PRESIDENT PUTTING OUT ANY
TWEET TO ROGER STONE.
IN FULL DISCLOSURE I’M NOT A BIG
ROGER STONE FAN BUT THE NOTION
THIS MAN WILL SPEND NINE YEARS
TO A FEDERAL PENITENTIARY LYING
TO CONGRESS WHEN WE SEE OTHERS
LYING FOR CONGRESS DON’T HAVE
THE SAME PENALTY I THINK IS VERY
UNFAIR.
UNFAIR. LIZ: OKAY.
LIZ: OKAY. LET’S MOVE ON.
THE MEDIA HEADLINES CONTINUE TO
POUR IN THAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE
REALLY WORRIED ABOUT BEATING THE
PRESIDENT.
PRESIDENT. FINANCIAL TIMES, BERNIE SANDERS
EARLY STRENGTH WORRIES DEMOCRAT
LEADERS.
LEADERS. THE PROSPECT AFTER NOMINATION OF
THE MOST ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SINCE
1972.
1972. WE HAVE MEDIA REPORTS IN THE
LIKES OF "POLITICO."
THIS COULD BE THE WEAKEST SLATE
OF CANDIDATES SINCE 1972.
CNN COMMENTATOR VAN JONES SAYS
DEMOCRATS ARE DEPRESSED AND SAD.
YOUR TAKE ON NANCY PELOSI
MEETING WITH HOUSE DEMOCRATS,
SWITCH AWAY FROM IMPEACHMENT.
TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMY.
ATTACK IT AND IT IS WEAK UNDER
THIS PRESIDENT.
THIS PRESIDENT. YOUR REACTION.
YOUR REACTION. >> TERRIBLE MESSAGE FOR THE
DEMOCRATS.
DEMOCRATS. EVERYONE OPENS 401(k) AT END
OF THE MONTH, END OF THE QUARTER
TO SEE IF THEY’RE DOING BETTER
UNDER THIS ADMINISTRATION.
THE DOW IS UP 275 TODAY.
IF NANCY WANTS TO PIN HOPES AND
DREAMS REMAINING SPEAKER ON THE
ECONOMY WE’LL DO THAT ALL DAY
LONG BECAUSE THIS PRESIDENT
CREATED THE BEST ECONOMY IN A
LIFETIME.
LIFETIME. >> BREAKING NEWS.
THE IOWA DEMOCRAT PARTY CHAIR,
TROY PRICE, REACTION TO THIS,
CORY, HE JUST RESIGNED AMID THE
CAUCUS CHAOS.
CAUCUS CHAOS. MORE DISARRAY, GO AHEAD.
>> PROBABLY RIGHTLY SO I GAVE A
SPEECH IN IOWA.
GAVE A SPEECH AT ONE OF THE
CAUCUS LOCATIONS.
CAUCUS LOCATIONS. BEFORE I LEFT WE HAD THE VOTES
TALLIED.
TALLIED. USUALLY ABOUT 100 PEOPLE AT A
CAUCUS LOCATION.
CAUCUS LOCATION. WHEN YOU CAN’T GET THIS RIGHT.
THERE SHOULD BE ACCOUNTABILITY.
THE RIGHT DECISION FOR HIM TO
DESIGN.
DESIGN. LIZ: ROLL CALL, NANCY PELOSI
ATTACKING ECONOMY, ROLLCALL THAT
THE HOUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE NOT
DRAFTED A BUDGET RESOLUTION THIS
YEAR AS NANCY PELOSI IS SAYING
ATTACK THE ECONOMY.
DOES THAT SQUARE.
>> IT DOESN’T SQUARE OBVIOUSLY.
LOOK THE DEMOCRATS HAVE NOTHING
TO RUN ON.
THEY HAVE BEEN A DO-NOTHING
PARTY FOR THE LAST
YEAR-AND-A-HALF THEY HAVE HAD
THE MAJORITY.
THE MAJORITY. NANCY PELOSI DECIDED TO MOVE
FORWARD WITH A PARTISAN
IMPEACHMENT WITCH-HUNT.
IMPEACHMENT WITCH-HUNT. IT DIDN’T PAN OUT WELL.
THE PRESIDENT’S NUMBERS ARE
BETTER THAN EVER, IF SHE WANTS
TO SWITCH TO THE ECONOMY WE’RE
HAPPY TO TALK ABOUT THE
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE AT RECORD LOWS
FOR AFTER CAN AMERICANS AND
HISPANIC-AMERICANS.
HISPANIC-AMERICANS. LIZ: THE HUGE LAS VEGAS CULINARY
UNION, 60,000 MEMBERS WHO WORK
IN ALL THE CASINOS THERE,
THEY’RE SAYING THAT THE CASINO
WORKERS UNITE AGAINST BERNIE’S
GOVERNMENT TAKE OVER OF HEALTH
CARE.
CARE. CORY, THEY PUT OUT A FLIER
WARNING THAT SANDERS WOULD KILL
THEIR HEALTH COVERAGE.
IS A STATEMENT FROM THE CULINARY
UNION.
UNION. THIS IS CASINOS IN LAS VEGAS.
OTHER LABOR UNIONS OPPOSE IT.
INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF
FIREFIGHTERS, FLIGHT ATTENDANTS.
AFL-CIO AFL-CIO RICHARD TRUMKA
NOT IN FULL SUPPORT AT ALL FOR A
GOVERNMENT TAKE OVER THIS IS THE
RUST BELT.
RUST BELT. THESE ARE THE SWING STATES,
CORY.
CORY. WE HAVE TRACKED IT.
THEY HAVE HIGHER HEALTH
INSURANCE COVERAGE THAN THE
NATIONAL AVERAGE.
NATIONAL AVERAGE. THESE ARE THE BATTLEGROUND
STATES.
STATES. YOUR REACTION?
YOUR REACTION? >> VERY SIMPLE, IF YOU WANT TO
KEEP YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE YOU
SHOULD BE ABLE TO.
THAT IS WHAT BARACK OBAMA SAID.
WE KNOW IT WASN’T TRUE.
THE PRESIDENT SAID WE’LL FIX
THAT PROBLEM.
THAT PROBLEM. BERNIE SANDERS BELIEVES THAT
GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE IS
THE SOLUTION.
THE SOLUTION. IT IS A 12 TRILLION-DOLLAR
PROBLEM.
PROBLEM. PEOPLE IN NEVADA KNOW, EXCUSE
ME, THOSE WORKERS KNOW
SPECIFICALLY IF BERNIE SANDERS
IS ELECTED THEY LOSE THEIR
HEALTH INSURANCE AND THEY LOSE
THEIR COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
UNDER IT.
UNDER IT. THEY WILL NOT SUPPORT BERNIE.
HE HAS A REAL PROBLEM.
WE’RE SEEING THE QUOTE-UNQUOTE
ESTABLISHMENT OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY TRYING TO STEAL THIS
ELECTION FROM BERNIE SANDERS
BECAUSE THEY KNOW HE CAN’T BEAT
DONALD TRUMP.
DONALD TRUMP. LIZ: WATCH.
LIZ: WATCH. WE’LL TRACK THIS.
WE’VE BEEN ON THE STORY.
WE’VE BEEN FIRST ON OUT OF THE
BOX ON A LOT OF COVERAGE.
MY TEAM HAS BEEN TERRIFIC.
WATCH FOR UNION PROTESTS AGAINST
BERNIE SANDERS IN NEVADA.
I WANT TO GET TO THIS.
BERNIE SANDERS, CORY, SAYING HE
IS NOT FOR A GOVERNMENT TAKE
OVER.
OVER. WE HAVE HIS LEGISLATION
COSPONSORED WITH SENATOR WARREN.
IT WOULD ABOLISH PRIVATE
INSURANCE, DEFUND OBAMACARE,
ABOLISH MEDICARE, MEDICAID, S
SHIP, ERISA BENEFITS, FEDERAL
EMPLOYEE HEALTH BENEFITS AND ON.
YOUR TAKE BERNIE SANDERS CALLED
ON THE CARPET BY THE MEDIA
SAYING STOP DODGING QUESTIONS,
ANSWER QUESTIONS.
ANSWER QUESTIONS. IS BERNIE SANDERS HABIT, HIS
CHRONIC HABIT, WE’VE SEEN IT, WE
REPORTED ON IT, HIS HABIT OF
DODGING QUESTIONS, HOW WILL
PRESIDENT TRUMP TAKE THAT ON IF
SANDERS IS THE NOMINEE?
>> THIS ELECTION IN 2020, IF
THIS WILL BE THE BERNIE SANDERS,
DONALD TRUMP ELECTION ABOUT
CAPITALISM VERSUS SOCIALISM.
BERNIE SANDERS IS A SELF-AVOWED
SOCIALIST.
SOCIALIST. HE HONEYMOONED IN THE FORMER
USSR BELIEVED IN AND STILL
BELIEVES IT.
BELIEVES IT. BERNIE SANDERS IS ENTITLED TO
HIS CORE CONVICTIONS BUT
AMERICAN PEOPLE AND RUST BELT
ACROSS MIDDLE AMERICA DON’T
SUPPORT THOSE CONVICTIONS.
THEY DON’T BELIEVE FREE HEALTH
INSURANCE AND FREE EDUCATION FOR
PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY ILLEGALLY
IS THE RIGHT THING.
THE PRESIDENT SAID WE’LL CHANGE
THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, WE’LL DO
IT AND YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO
CHOOSE WHERE IT IS.
I THINK WE SHOULD PASS HEALTH
CARE ACROSS STATE LINES SO YOU
PURCHASE IT REGARDLESS WHAT
STATE YOU LIVE IN TO DRIVE DOWN
THE COSTS.
THE COSTS. TRUTH IS BERNIE SANDERS WANTS
THE GOVERNMENT TO RUN IT.
THE GOVERNMENT CAN’T RUN
ANYTHING VERY EFFICIENTLY AND
AMERICAN PEOPLE DON’T AGREE WITH
IT.
IT. LIZ: ACROSS STATE LINES WAS IN
OBAMACARE.
OBAMACARE. THE PRESIDENT IS PUSHING FOR
THAT EVEN FURTHER.
