Gillaspie. However, what were not showing right there, though, and let me just tell you right now is when you look at it right there, to support donald trump, 16 of people went out to vote to support donald trump. Look at that number, 34 , more than double of people went out as an Opposition Vote against donald trump. As we talk about this election, as we talk about 2018, clearly trump had an effect on this race. Thats the president mark. What are people saying about the republican and democratic parties in virginia . Good news for democrats, bad news for republicans. If you look at there, it shows that democrats right now had a 51 Approval Rating coming out of this exit poll. If you look at the Disproval Rating was 45 . Now, if you look at the republican numbers, their Approval Rating was only at 45 , don. If you look at these numbers right now it just goes to show you that democrats were doing
its really selfinflicted wounds. The big win for democrats tonight, exactly one year after Donald Trumps stunning victory over Hillary Clinton and the president ial election. Joining me now cnn political analyst joshua green, National Correspondent for bloomsbering business week, cnn reporter henderson, cnn Political Commentator david axelrod, and dave begala, simone sanders, jason miller, and Political Commentator amanda carpenter. Before i play this, i want to pl play what happened one year is biden running . He seems to be talking to people about it. Hes going on a 40city book tour which is often a prelude to something. And i expect that hes very much down the road. A couple of weeks ago he was in Western Virginia campaigning
for Ralph Northam. By the way, Terry Mccullen the democratic governor of virginia, a huge winner here am. A lot of people are going to look to him to run. The question is what lessons candidates should take from this. The fact is that in both parties candidates have to go through a nominating process. And sometimes a nominating process has different demands than the process of winning a General Election. And i think one of the challenges for the Democratic Party is do candidates position themselves in such ways to win the nominating process and make themselves less electable in a General Election . And that remains to be seen. So can you guys believe its been a year . It was one year ago tonight. Whatd you say . Feels like ten. Hopefully itll be seven more. Well, itd be one more
election. Many more years. Each year for me with President Trump is like a dog year, a female dog year. Its very difficult. Heres what was going on on cnn a year ago. Watch this. Donald trump suhead. He has 242 electoral votes compared to Hillary Clintons 209. He is ahead of Hillary Clinton right now, but there is still several of those yellow states that are out standing right now. So well see what is happening in those states. Hes clearly doing now, dana, what he did during the republican primaries, surprising a lot of folks. Thats absolutely right. Right now a historic moment. Cnn projects donald trump wins the presidency. The Business Tycoon and Tv Personality capping his
improbable political journey with an astounding upset victory. Defeating Hillary Clinton in a campaign unlike anything weve seen in our lifetime. It is interesting. I remember being and people are looking shocked, right . I actually think he watches that. Every night before he goes to bed, im sure. Its been a year. A lot has changed in the Political Landscape in a year. Yeah, donald trump hasnt really changed, though. He is essentially the same person as he ran as, the kind of tweets that stir things up, the bullying in terms of people in his own party, talking about the president the way he does. I was in this chair a year ago, and i think i am surprised at how little donald trump has actually been able to do. Ithink i remember texting back and forth with somebody in the
obama administration essentially saying, you know, the whole obama legacy is over, and theyre going to be able to run the table on any number of things in terms of Overturning Legislation or passing new legislation, and that just hasnt happen immediatech and i think we saw the results of that tonight with folks in virginia and different states essentially saying what we signed up for something in terms of voting for trump, but he hasnt necessarily delivered. And not only that hes tweeting wild and crazy things at other republicans and its not amounting to anything. That was the concern. It was a republican house, republican senate, Republican White House and that there would be legislative accomplishments democrats would not like. That has not happened. Not at all. Trump stated i want to be president for all americans. And that sent a message, very shortlived, but it sent a message that he really might reach across the aisle and maybe lead with something like
infrastructure. So you had a lot of democrats, chuck schumer, worried that trump would steal a big part of the democratic base. Blue collar, white workers who are tempted by him in many ways. And had he governed differently, he might have. But thats not the trump we see here a year later. We talk about the president constantly reaching out to his base. Thats a strategy. Reach out to his base, reach out to his base. He only does interviews on one network, which many people labeled the Trump Network now. If you look at the poll numbers, hes not gaining and he hasnt reached across the aisle. He hasnt brought in any new voters, any independent numbers. Does the strategy ned to change, jason . Well, i think part of what the president needs to do is go back to the strategy that works so well on the Campaign Trail. I was with the president when he went into cleveland and talked
about school choice, went into africanamerican neighborhoods and talked about infrastructure, how were going to bring back jobs and opportunity. He said he needs to come off of offense or go back . He needs to go back on offense. Hold on. But on the Campaign Trail, i felt like the president really took on big issues and thought really big transformative agenda items. And i feel that were getting too much of the president s success or failure right now is being dictated by what 100 Knuckle Heads on capitol hill give a thumbs up or thumbs down to. When we talk about things that can truly change peoples lives for the better, things people can say, wow, i did not expect you donald trump to make good on these promises or do these big things. Keep in mind during the campaign one of the things that made donald trump stand out so much, he would go to news outlets that
typical republicans would never go to, and he would do great. And he would take this message when he needed them hes like of course oh, yeah ill do the interview he should go and take advantage of that, take offense wont it be hypocritical if he goes back and does interviews with fake News Organizations no, the one cool thing about Election Night i get to brag for just a minute. Go right ahead. I wanted the opportunity to tell him they just called the race and he became president. So a minor footnote in history do be backstage and said mr. President , mr. President elect, they called it and youre the next president of the united states. Hold on. What was his reaction . I think it was a kind of a
momentary, he just kind of looked and like youre kidding . And everyone started hugging each other and it was a pretty cool moment. Something jason said i want to go back, these 100 Knuckle Heads on the hill, that is our government. The fact tat donald trump has not been able to grasp that concept in this short year i think is really important. Its going to dictate what the next year looks like not just for him but republicans down the ballot. So going back to whatever he did on the Campaign Trail was only speaking to specific group of people. If you really want to be president of everybody, you have to act like youd be president of everybody.

Joining me now Cnn National Security analyst james clapper, the former director of national intelligence. So good to have you on. Thaeng very much ach after watching the president s speech tonight in your opinion do they decrease or increase the conflict with north korea . I dont think they change a whole lot. I think it was a strong speech, but it was absent of the careless and inflammatory rhetoric we saw before. Its not going to intimidate the north. I thought the litany about Human Rights Abuses was kind of striking, that he would do that. The idea of suggesting, i think he was messaging the chinese and russia about serving relationships. Im not sure what that means. I think the chinese are going to be hardpressed to do that. And the greater strategic imperative for the chinese is north korea not implode violently and particularly and they lose their buffer state. I think that is the overriding strategic imperative for the chinese. But the speech was mostly stiff and not much carat. I wish he expanded a bit on his Press Conference remarks about the ordeal and offered something about the path to negotiation. If i ever drafted a speech, which is unlikely would ever happen, i think i would have tried to insert some language in there about the fact that the
united states has no enemies. What he did not do in this speech is put north korea back on the terror response list. I dont really think theres much to be gained by that in terms of what that hell actually mean by north korea. Thats something they ought to hold back. They dont want be put on that list, so i think it was good not to do it. He said north korea should not underestimate his administration. This is new and different administration. Im wondering where diplomacy stands right now. It wasnt long ago he said tillerson was wasting his time negotiating. Yes, and i personally dont think the Secretary Of State is ever wasting his time through diplomacy. Thats his job. And as Secretary Mattis has said, were always looking to
negotiate. And again the inference of his Press Conference remarks was theres something afoot here, hopefully diplomatic. I dont know what that means, and i was looking for that in his speech. I was hoping it would be more on a path ahead for negotiations. I dont try or didnt when i was there, the north korean great interest in a peace treaty. Because all we have is an armistice thats there for 64 years, a ceasefire. Of course that wasnt in his speech. All of this is happening and russias in the background. Russias still playing here even as hes overseas, and then we have this where at the urging of the president , we have mike pompeo whos a cia director, the president met last month or he met last month mike pompeo with a u. S. Intel official who denies that Russia Meddled in
the election and has this Conspiracy Theory that it was an inside job. How unusual is that made . Well, its unusual. And in fairness to pompeo, i think when the president asks you to meet with somebody as much as you may not want to, in my sensing is as much as it took to meet, he didnt want to do that. Because he understood the impact that was going to have on the Intelligence Community at large. And i was gratified when he did ratify the findings and the evidence that it Wasnt An Inside Job is pretty substantial. But it seems like the president , he is still questioning the Intelligence Community that Russia Meddled in the election. It shows the lengths at which the president would go to Grassp Straws in try to rebut that
assessment. It was very solid. And so i think he just wont let it go, and hes looking for any way he can to attack the notion that the russians interfered. And they did and quite substantially. New details are coming out about carter page, that capitol hill testimony. On a trip to russia he interacted with a Russian Deputy prime minister. And also said top officials like coren lewandowski, hope hicks new about that trip. What does that all mean because theyre still some in the administration . Well, this is continuation of this drip, drip, drip. Implicating People Associated with the campaign and in some cases with the administration about this interaction with the russians. Thats why its so important that this come to closure at some point. And of course the great hope here for me is that special
couns counsel mueller, which i think whatever he comes out with should be the definitive word. But this business of these revelations coming out is not good for anybody. Not good for the country and not good for the president. Always a pleasure. Thanks, don. When we come back President Trump calls the russia investigation a hoax. Its not.

Whats interesting is that was far more than a number of people who said that immigration, for example, was their main concern. In fact if you added immigration and guns together it would be less than the number of people who said health care was an issue. I think theres something going on in this country, and you saw it well enough not just in virginia but in other places around the country tonight. And weve seen this at times when theres an unpopular president , unpopular policies, the Opposition Party gets a burst of energy. And we saw that burst of energy in Virginia Tonight, and elsewhere at a magnitude that i dont think anybody expected. Again, id say the dpufbners race was surprising because of its margin. The legislative races were mindboggling. The fact that democrats who were 2 to 1 in the minority today could tomorrow or the next day actually be in control of the
virginia house of delegates. Thats a big warning sign for republicans. Keirsten, i want to ask you Whats Going On, because the exit polls in virginia and the governors race showed that 1 in 6 virginians made up their minds during the last week. 62 to 36 . Do you think voters are fed up with the scandal or fed up with whats existing or Whats Going On . The race got ugly in the closing gate. That definitely could have turned them off. I was saying earlier i wouldnt read too much into the governors race. But i think its right to look at the house of delegates because those are more of an approximation of a generic ballot race. Because they dont have the kind of Television Ads and the people are less wellknown. In recent polls democrats are polling better on the generic ballot. I think its saying that people,
its a reaction to trump, you know, in large part versus in the governors race its a democratic state, democratic governor right now. These are people that are taking republican seats. Its also a measure of organization. Organization is driven by enthusiasm. Lots and lots of people showed up in the state of virginia and went doortodoor for these legislative candidates, and that actually makes a difference. Go on. You cannot win if you cannot play, from a mississippi songwriter. Ds put candidates up in races that most people didnt think they could win today. Democrats have learned a lot from 2016, which is youve got to reach out to people. You cant just say were going to tend to our base, but you cant ignore that base. Right nutow the democrats look
like theyve got both wings together. Thats a really impressive thing from my party which is never united. Its an interesting thing. Do most people under the table agree the russia thing played into the voters i think its a part of the overall antitrump sentiment. But in terms of issues that were on their minds, like they said health care was an overwhelming issue. But i dont think specifically antitrump. Because what weve seen democrats do run on antitrump and theyre just talking about donald trump, theyre not necessarily successful. So it was also that democratic races across the country had a message to speak to voters. But the chairman of the black caucus just texted me and said, we cant except the ball on the line. We need a longterm plan to engage voters of color, young people. So theres more work that democrats have to do. Lets say one thing about this race. I think theres a lot of democrats went to the polls, pulled the lever and didnt know
anything about this candidate. Im not taking anything away from him, but ive heard people say it, and i think its also true. He also flew very much below the radar. What would have happened if hed gotten into a twitter fight . That st. Not really a doable thing in 2020. And so you cant there is an antitrump vote, but thats not everything. But you Dont Fight Fire and fir. You fight fire with water. Mr. Trump is bellicose. Donald trump is divisive, Ralph Northam is uniter. This is thing that democrats can learn. Its everywhere we need to be antitrump in the best sense of the word. Not just against everything he proposes. But its against this most unlovely and undignified campaign the way that ed gillaspie ran it. He ran a racist, divisive set of ads and he should be ashamed of himself. Are you calling that ad racist because what it did is callout racism. I would say that was gis gusting and shameful. Whats gis gusting is ed gillaspie sparking the worst parts of people the ad was was kids of color running. And what they were running from was a truck with a Bumper Sticker with a Confederate Flag with it. If you dont like that type of stuff dont well find the ad and then well talk about it.

Accused of Obstructing Justice to theat the fbinuclear war, and of violating the constitution by taking money from foreign governments and threatening to shut down News Organizations that report the truth. If that isnt a case for impeaching and removing a dangerous president , then what has our government become . Im tom steyer, and like you, im a citizen who knows its up to us to do something. Its why im funding this effort to raise our voices together
and demand that elected officials take a stand on impeachment. A Republican Congress once impeached a president for far less. Yet today people in congress and his own administration know that this president is a Clear And Present Danger whos mentally unstable and armed with nuclear weapons. And they do nothing. Join us and tell your member of congress that they have a moral responsibility to stop doing whats political and start doing whats right. Our country depends on it. All right back now with my team. We were talking about political ads run in this particular election. One of which was a latino ad. It was from a Latino Victory Fund. I thought it was totally unfair, and it came off right away but somehow that is the equivalent of putting his name on an image of race based ads day after day after day. Lets watch this ad. Here it is. Is this what donald trump is ed gillaspie mean by the American Dream . So let me say i think that ad is, one, Latino Victory Fund i think first of all the team said they knew that ad was there are lots of people in america specifically virginia that felt directly attacked by ed gulaespy
candidacy, the type of race he was running. Many other people i think it was also right for Ralph Northam to also disavow the ad. But the fact of the matter is ed gillaspie ran a really racist campaign. If folks are upset about people calling out racism, i think you should be more upset about the racism than the racist tactic this is the ad people thought people were racist. Here it is. The dangerous street gang ms 13 are responsible for the recent murder in bedford county. Crimes have been increasing in our region. Ms 13 is a menace. Get Ralph Northam voted for sanctions Ralph Northams policies are dangerous. Im ed gillaspie, candidate for
governor. And i sponsor this ad. Racist ads are fear based. Those people in that ad, by the way, that photograph was taken in el salvador. Theyre not in virginia. Virginia has the third lowest crime rate in america. And for ed gillaspie to say oh, scary latinos are coming to your was it wrong for gillaspie to bring up the fact that northam you have a president that threatens federal funding. Why is it racist to talk about the policies . Leaving the question whether itseratesest or not racist are, do you think anyone who watched that ad who had no other
information would know there are no Sanctuary Cities in virginia . The clear implication is there are and thats why theres this problem. I think people are threatened by the idea of i understand exactly what the intent of it was. And it did help jen up ed gillaspie. Not only did Ralph Northam win, democrats also elected the first latino House Delegate in Virginia Tonight despite ads like these. So voters were obviously seeing these ads that was a calculation gillaspie had to make. He wasnt winning, and he made this calculation he was going to get off the economic message on tv and go to mismessage to try to arouse his base. But its very hard to jen up your base and not jen up another at the same time. I think you had this turn out because of the backlash. He played the culture wars in that way not only with the nfl and he sent out ads with the nfl players kneeling, embracing robert e. Lee. Anyway coming into this the thought was maybe this would work, maybe this would be a play book you could repicate if you were a republican in any other state. But it backfired. I think everyone is surprised at how much it backfired. Vanity called it trumpism. If thing going tonight is if republican win big is that a republican strategists across the country looking at this oh, maybe we should back off, maybe we shouldnt be so close, maybe it shouldnt be trump or trumpism . Yeah, i think probably. But this wasnt intentional. They were trying something out
and they really believed this was going to work. And if it would work in a state like virginia, it would work in other states. And they made the Immigration Issue central, the Cultural Issuewise the nfl and those types of things because those are things trump uses to divide people in the country. Its how he opened his campaign with the Immigration Issue. So what does this mean for the president s Agenda Moving Forsqurd Inbecause now taxes. And every republican will tell you i think hes got to get something done. Well answer it right after the break. E may weigh on your mind. Thinking about what to avoid, where to go, and how to work around your uc. Thats how i thought it had to be. But then i talked to my doctor about humira, and learned humira can help get and keep uc under control. When certain medications havent worked well enough. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections,
including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Raise your expectations and ask your gastroenterologist if humira may be right for you. With humira, control is possible.

Axelrod, i think that blue state republicans, you can say that blue state republicans from the local levels in suburbs got creamed. Yeah. So the big story tomorrow is going to be the impact of this blue wave on republicans. I think that is the story. I think that republicans particularly in suburban areas like the areas which we saw Ralph Northam and a lot of these legislative candidates rollup big numbers tonight have the be worried. And its not just here. In new york for example the
westchester county republican lost by 16 tonight. Senator crist murphy tweeted that all over connecticut town Leadership Change from republican to democrat, thats a very suburban state. There is a problem with there is a problem with independent and Republican Voters in should have these raers. And the Turnout Issue is huge. Our colleague Ron Brownstein tweeted that wortham sorry. North that will. Its late. It is late. Ill col him governorelect. The governorelect got 330,000 more votes than either Terry Mcauliffe or mark warner in 2013 and 2014. 330,000 votes. Ed gillespie got 100 more votes than he got when he ran in 20 train. But that was dwarfed by the turnout. And this was in those suburban areas. So yes, i think and this is
the battleground in these congressional races in 2018. So i think republicans have a lot to think about. I do think theyll go in, the leaders will go into their caucuses tomorrow and say, we got to pass tax reform because if we dont pass, this is what were going to get if we dont do something. Im glad you asked that,my yeah you heard what he said about health care. More people cared about health care than thought of. Now these same people, these blue state republicans, are going to be asked to vote for this tax plan that could hurt their constituents. Yeah, and thats why you see some of them already saying they cant back it. If youre from new york, for instance. If they do away with the state and local deduction, thats not a good thing. There are all sorts of things. Getting rid of deductions for student loans, adoptions, all sorts of things buried in medical expenses. All sorts of things buried into this very republican approach to taxes. It doesnt seem necessarily to be a populist approach to taxes. I mean, they sort of lead with this idea of cutting Corporate Tax rate to 20 and this idea all thats going to trickle down to the little guy, these white workingclass voters who are part of trumps base. Im not sure thats necessarily sexy enough for those voters to really be attached to and really be excited about. As jason said, it doesnt pull on the Heart Strings of the trump voter. Right. But are we looking at another health care fight . We could be because one of the things republicans might think about doing to help pay for this Corporate Health tax is to abolish the individual mandate in the Affordable Care act, which would have the effect of pulling health care and never jizing a lot of these angry democratic voters who turned out tonight because of health care into this tax fight which might not be something republicans want to fight about right now. What happens if taxes dont get passed, tax reform . Its a problem. Heres the thing. A lot of republicans went along with trump because hes a dealmaker whos going to get things done. Without those deals you can only run on trumpism. Thats what ed gillespie tried to do in virginia, it did not work. Theres a lot of republicans i think are rirlg now making the calculation, i do not wish to run on trumpism. Jeff flake, bob corker, other house seats. Theyre taking themselves off the field. Did they take themselves off too early, considering what happened tonight . If they dont want to campaign on trumpism and defy the rnc, defy the white house look what President Trump did to ed gillespie tonight. Ed gillespie lost. And President Trump knifed him as he went down. Im fine with flake and corker hitting the road, i have no problem there. Like i said, we need to get tax cuts ton, then theres a lot more republicans need to do. Are you hearing what were saying . The republicans in blue states got creamed and this is going to potentially hurt their constituency. Do you think theyre going to be able to look, theyll tweak it so maybe its a smaller tax cut for families in blue states. But at a certain point first of all, the state and local Tax Deduction is complete garbage that allows blue states to have outofcontrol governments, then they go and get to deduct big chunks from it. But theyll go play around with it and do enough so they can go get blue state republicans on board. So everyones going to get a tax cut. Im not too concerned about that. Christmas, thanksgiving, when is it going to happen . If they pass tax cuts in january, even the first or second week of february, still a win. What will happen when its the trump supporters, hey, man, this is not what you promised us. Thats the problem, this is not a trump supporter tax cut, its a swamp tax cut, designed
by special interests and the paul ryan and what donald trump ran against. Theyre going to have to defend this. Health care was the Biggest Issue in virginia, they didnt even pass it, but virginians didnt wanted me caid destroyed. Thats the biggest political message you get out of this. 2018 is going to be about tax cuts. Do people want to take away tax cuts from families who adopt babies to give a bigger tax cut to exxonmobil . This gives the resistance something to run on. It gives lots people lots of things to run on. The republicans have the white house, both chambers of congress, and theyve not been able to get anything done. Folks want results.
