Independent voters are excited for someone entirely new to run for president. Biden comes in second followed by Bernie Sanders and beto orourke. And 70 of those same voters say Hillary Clinton should not run again. President trump going after democrats as we have more of that . No why dont. Is that just a poll. The teleprompter is working very well today. Maria harf. Even if biden were upset he wouldnt say so. Its obvious that is going to have to meet with lots of democrats before 2020, right . Yes. I actually dont think, i mean joe biden is an adult. He has been in politics a long time. He and barack obama are very close. I dont think he is probably very upset about this. Its interesting though in that poll 59 want someone new. I think we see that in poet parties, right . Thats how we got donald trump. But joe biden was at 53 . Joe biden knows he is very popular in the party. Is he popular among independents and barack obama is going to have to meet with lots of people i do do think you will see keep his powder dry not have 25, 30 people weigh in the democratic primary. If joe biden wants to run, joe biden will have a lot of support even among people barack obama even if he didnt doesnt endorse him he was Vice President 8 years. He has thicker skin than that. He was the Vice President the last election as well. Weave know the Party Leadership as well as the president all did the garden meetings. He wasnt going to run. This was all because Hillary Clinton was the chosen candidate. Maria thats not why biden didnt run. Lawrenc i do think he will be frustrated if the president doesnt get behind him. He understands former president he has to be with all the candidates. The former Vice President is going to be expected, president obama, to get behind him because he did step aside and let Hillary Clinton run. Its not easy to tell somebody that maybe its past their time. Right . Its not easy to tell someone that. We are not elephants. You see the word, personality about the republicans that the Republican Party is now apersonality and its all about donald trump. I think that is not true. The cultive personality is. Antitrump party thats all they are at this point. Thats why they need a new person. Definitely personality. They liked his personality. They wanted donald trump. It wasnt anyone new. So, they are searching for thats why beto is such a big thing. Because they are not really sure about why they like him but they think he is a personality that can take on trump. Thats all they want. Dana they want someone who has a spark. Morgan maybe. Im looking forward to this primary. This looks like the republican primary times like 1,000 just like get out the popcorn. I cant wait. Whats ironic to me is how the dem activist base freaking out top three people in polling are all white men. A lot of people have a problem with that the Republican Party has been criticized nonstop by democrats by being the party of white men. Any time you oppose the policy of president barack obama it must be because you are a racist. Now the women in the minority that are going to be running for president will be turning that around on fellow democrats. It will be interesting how bernie and biden and orourke answer that all white male which is almost like worse than being a criminal in the Democratic Party right now. Dana what frustrates me about fellow democrats is they are looking for a savior right now. Thats why they look at beto. They want someone who is a perfect candidate and perfect package. They have one in barack obama. Maria i keep telling my fellow democrats we dont need a savior. The primary process sometimes works itself out it sometimes puts forward a candidate that can win in a general. The republican primary was insane. It put forth a candidate that could win a general elections same with barack obama in 2008. Sometimes these processes actually work. Dana i do have a question for you, maria, tell me just about logistically how you think things will change when california moves earlier for their primary because there are so many delegates then . Does that change a lot . Maria that will change it, also the fact that super delegates, these parties elders given a lot of power in previous democratic primary they helped anoint Hillary Clinton for example, they have much less power now. The power has been pushed down to the grassroots activists. Democrats in iowa are different than democrats in New Hampshire and south carolina. Nevada now no longer a caucus, now a primary. These things seem very wonky, but they actually matter when there is going to be a very hotly condition tested primary. Thats why you will see candidates go to iowa and New Hampshire. You already are. This primary is starting like now. Morgan the generational struggle in the Democratic Party is sort of a fascinating one as well. And the president ial election they rely so much on the Younger Voters that didnt show out for Hillary Clinton. Especially younger women. And the generational struggle just isnt about their 2020 nominee. Look at the angst that was geared towards pelosi and to schumer. People who are in their 70s and in leadership for a long time. You are sort of seeing the base of the Democratic Party, especially the young people say, you know, its our time to lead. Its our time for leadership. One problem the democrats are going to have is authentic leadership. A lot of candidates werent as far left when they were in other offices, when it came to beto. Kirsten gillibrand. He voted for legislation to dismantle obamacare. Why bernie has been attacking him. Kamala harris is for social Justice Reform she didnt govern that way in california. Lets be clear biden is an experienced politician. Is he not going to play fair with them. He goal after every single thing that they did. Maria im ready. Right now when it comes to the democrats, he is the only candidate that has a shot in the running because, he has been that consistent leader. Maria maria poll numbers from 2015 or 11 or 07 we would be talking about a whole Different Group of people. All the numbers have to do with troop. Even 70 dont want her to run. They are mad at her because she lost to trump. Thats why her anybodys ar numo low. They will forgive beto if they think. I dont think so. Dana each the bernie people are not solid bernie people. They are saying you have to court us a little bit. Morgan to Morgans Point there is a good one. People saying look we need to win. Someone like joe biden or beto can win. We need to win with a fill in the blank, woman, minority, progressive, whatever that blank is, and you are going to have democrats who say job number one is to win. We need to figure out how to do an that and take care of the rest later quite frankly. Morgan poll we looked at earlier 41 of democrats thought that bernie should not run again. For me, when you see. Amen. He is not a democrat i say that all the time. Morgue moral for me, instead of trying to Tonya Harding beto already in the. Good reference. Morgan i looked her name up earlier today. Its not really about that. Its about he is selfish. Its about power. More than about ideology. They are all so power hungry they cant lead a movement and step aside. That new movement is where the energy is. Maria part of it not all of it. I said this yesterday on the five we would laugh at ocasiocortezs but they are winning. Not just her that is winning. There are incremental changes they want to make. The democrats have to take them serious. They are the Freedom Caucus of the left. Morgan they are only winning in certain places. The way we took back the majority in the house is by winning moderate seats in kansas city and nevada and detroit and denver. All of these places we took back the house with moderates. A lot of attention goes to progressives and thats the fight you are going to have. Dana we have to run, guys. Do you have any last thoughts, tom . I agree its going to be fun. We will see what happens. Dana i agree it will be fun. Partial Government Shutdown hits day 6 six. You be my glass of wine ill be your shot of whiskey you be my sunny day i will be your shade tree the greatest wish of all is one that brings us together. The final days of wish list are here.

Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Maria President Trump trying to pin blame on democrats as the shutdown enters day six accusing democrats of obstruction and hypocrisy when it comes to the border wall. We are going to have a wall and we are going to have safety. We need safety for our country even from this standpoint. We need a wall. How long is it going to take . When are they going to say we need Border Security . When are the democrats going to say . Dont forget, the democrats all agreed that you need a wall until i wanted it once i wanted it, they didnt agree. Maria with negotiations reportedly at a stand still House Republicans are saying members shouldnt expect any new vote this week. Okay. Dana, i want to start with some of the human impact of this because we now know hundreds of thousands of federal workers having to work without getting paid, you and i have both been federal Government Employees as has morgan there are real people impacted by. This. Dana however, do i think this could go on for a very long time. Mark meadows a congressman for north carolina, head of the Freedom Caucus was on with cnn and dana barb earlier and said President Trump. 24 could go on for a long time. In fact, i have a theory. Maria okay. Dana i think it could go on until the state of the union that usually happens at the end of the month. Remember President Trump made a secret trip over there we will talk about later in the show. He plans to go see the border. He was going to go see the border and take the press with him. He said i think im going to go right before the state of the union. I think that it could go on that long because the president is going to dig in his heels. And im not saying i dont know anything. This is purely my thought process. But im just thinking if it goes to next week, right, and nancy pelosi then presumably she becomes the speaker of the house. Then you are at january 6th. So then january 27th, 28th, whenever the state of the union is. I could see it lasting that long. Lawrence i think its longer than that. Maria nancy pelosi when she takes over and the House Democrats are in charge they will have the votes to pass a clean funding bill. It may pass the senate even despite republicans picking um more votes. If President Trump vetoes that, is that a good idea . Do you think thats what he will do . That seems like a bigger political gamble. Lawrence he doesnt have any choice. Maria why . Lawrence if he doesnt deliver on this piece of Campaign Promise he doesnt win. The president was prepared to cave last week there was multiple reports of it he was bringing everybody, in the moment everyone started attacking him and his base, it was the first time i ever seen the president fearful. Because all his loyal support errors. The president realizes this is the gamble right now. Either this is the last time he can get it passed. He has to hold a firm stance on this or he wont get reelected. Dana i disagree but i will let everyone talk. Maria his poll numbers have started to go down. The promise during the campaign was not that taxpayers would pay for it but mexico would pay for it. Tom democrats saying well we will wait for democrats to pay for it thats a loser argument. Maria he did say it. Tom it doesnt matter. The base didnt believe it anyway. They knew he was going to get the money other ways. Lawrence its true. Tom when i do my talk radio, you know, the callers come in and they all say he knew he would find other ways to pay for it we knew he hut nafta thing. They want construction to start on the wall. He is right. What he just said that clip we just played, democrats already voted for this. They said they want a border barrier, right, it was in 2006, democrats did vote. Obama did vote. The schumer, i believe, voted for the fencing. Thats why the it the is changing he is saying i will take if they want to call it fencing or steel slats. Lawrence he just wants it. Tom he is right that clip he showed thats perfect logic they voted for it until trump wanted it and thin they didnt. Thats very true. Morgan january 3rd nancy pelosi will take over as speaker of the house. The house will pass a clean c. R. Bill and thats without the wall funding they will submit to the senate. That will not past the 60 sloot threshold. Dana you dont think so . Morgan no. Here is what i think will happen. You will see moderate senators especially in states like maine, people that have reelection, might be a Republican Senate in a state where the president isnt popular. They might be able to start pick them off. They wont pick them off to get to 60. If i am the president and his team and im looking at this from are a strategic perspective. It feels like we are on defense. We need to get back on to offense. We need to put things on the table that the democrats cant turn down. Just say im going to keep the government closed until i get the wall funding like daca and tps renewal and bridge act. Immigration related but there is a number of things we could put on the table that would start to break apart right now their coalition is united we start to get moderate senators defecting and going on the democrat side thats why we need to go on offense. Lawrence i disagree with that but from a practical standpoint. Morgan what are you going to get the house to pass. Lawrence get some type of compromise. Two separate issues when it comes to securing the border and the citizens that are noncitizens that came here no fault of their own, being here illegally,. Morgan i agree you are arguing policy, im arguing tactics. Lawrence lawrence they tried it before and it didnt get done. The president offered how many . 1. 8. They still turned it down. They tried that tactic before. They didnt get it passed. Its going to go either the wall or nothing. The president is going to take that hard line. Dana one on the communications standpoint. The president and the democrats are in impasse. How do you break an impasse. He is the one that can do something different. I think he needs to show, not tell or show not tweet. So i would let other people do the talking for me. So he has great people at the customs and Border Patrol who are civil servants. Take them down with the press and let them show them their situation. Show them how it would be more effective if they had border fencing, wall, whatever you want to call it in these areas it would save money in the long run. You wouldnt need four people in one area you just have one person. Showing not telling would be really important. I also feel like the president has a lot to point to aside from this 5 billion for wall funding that he has done on immigration he can take to the base. Do you want to know what i have done . Here is all these things. Asylum claims. Basically getting mexico to hold Asylum Seekers rather than being held in the United States thats such a big deal. He is not getting enough credit for that Kirstjen Nielsen organized that mexicans are basically saying okay. We will swallow that we already have that same agreement with canada. He has done more on workplace enforcement. Troops to the border. He has shown he is willing to do it. Visa overstay really big issue nobody is talking about that. He could do that. I feel like there are things that he could do that he could talk to in addition to all these other things that we want to do with Border Security, ive done all of these things as well. Is he willing to fight all the way up to the Supreme Court for it he has a story to tell. I think he gets himself too boxed in just talking about the wall. Maria it plays for the base. We will keep monitoring to see how long the shutdown continues. In the meantime, just how addicted are americans to their phones . We all have them out on the table here.

Senat morgan so people are so addicted to technology and devices they are now turning to rehab much like programs helping with drug and alcohol tech addicts are turning to i secluded that include 12 step programs. They are using smart phones with limits and monitoring systems. Tom, one of the things i thought was interesting and when we were reading about this and how people were addicted to their smart phones is that grang graying and gen exer. It is true we got a little obsessed. When i was a real tech advocate in the 1990s and i loved when the iphone came out and i did get obsessed with it we suffered from it i think because, i dont know, it really took over our lives in a way that with younger people its just it hasnt taken over their lives as much. Morgan i was surprised that gen exers used the phone more than millennials. Dana clear why. Our work is there we are in the prime of our working lives. We want to keep in touch with our parents as they get older. And for those of us that have children you want to keep in touch with your children. If you are working. If you are trying to find a worklife balance the most effective tool is your phone. Tom you are right. We need to talk to more people. You are right. Lawrence thats a good excuse. You guys arent used to it so you all got a little taste of it and you cant put it down. My generation grew up with it its nothing to us. We dont use it that much its like always that you toy. We put it down and move onto the next thing. You guys get loyal to it. We grew one computers and all that stuff. Morgan irritating me. Maria i do think there addictive quality to it new iphone can you monitor your screen time and i like the fact that people are now doing phonefree holidays. And dinners. I really i like that because you can get and it has not just mental but physical. My doctor told meet more you look down at your phone your hands and your wrist and everything like. Create a wrink kel. Dana the wrinkle thing is a problem. Morgan i got the wrist thing on Election Night for the rest of that week. Morgan mental aspect of it. Morgan wrinkles. Maria people like air brushed and perfect. All these studies who adults see peoples lives they get depressed because they dont think their life is as good. Morgan i have never had that problem. Im happy for their success. Maria teenagers. There are down sides to it. Tom huge downside. Need to go further. Its not just balance. People need to put their phones away. I wake up i used to wake um and go to the phone and read the news. I work in the news business. I need to keep up with the headlines. Now, i dont. I keep the phone away. I make my coffee and sit there and read text. My life is better. Its insane. But you dont need you can do it by yourself. You dont need rehab. Just trying to try to get to you pay its a paid vacation because they can submit it and say its a medical issue. Morgan something called selfie risk. Fox news is reporting on this. This is intense fox news reporting this christmas week. When you take your phone and take a selfie and holding it too long can you get pain in your wrist. I love selfies so you have a selfie risk issues . Lawrence no. I have long arms. Just a little click. But what concerns me about all this tech nonsense because people can have personal responsibility they want the government to come in and regulate these tech companies. Morgan all right, libertarian. Lawrence just because you cant have selfcontrol doesnt mean the government needs to come in and be your daddy. If you dont like the way facebook is selling your private information. They built these platforms to be addictive. They built fast food to be addictive so you can go to mcdonalds and all these others. Deleted the app. Instead they are too lazy and Want Congress to investigate these people its addictive and selling. This you signed up for it. Dana i agree. Maria there is a difference between your info. Facebook has not been honest. Lawrence delete it. Maria eye yoga eyes have become so pained and damaged from staring at screens. Tom same people are doing dumb rehab. Put the phone down, dummy. Dana i agree with that. Morgan i have fantastic selfie collection. I liking to ask famous people for selfies. Maria you are that girl. Morgan if i asked them for a selfie they would say go away. I have a good collection. I dont have have selfie wrist. Just have a bruise on my wrist. Tom i dont know if its out selfies . Morgan its called selfie wrist. Friends foxnews. Com. Tom fox news oh then its right. [laughter] maria Holiday Season without the phone you dont need to document. Lawrence my family did that. We decided we were going to enjoy each other i get bored. Everybody take a selfie in the break. President trumps surprise visit to troops in iraq reaches epic levels. You wont believe what they are saying now or maybe you will ive always been amazed by whats next. And still going for my best, even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. So if theres a better treatment than warfarin. I want that too. Eliquis. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Whats next . Reeling in a nice one. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden sign of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis, the number one cardiologistprescribed blood thinner. Ask your doctor if eliquis is whats next for you. Lawrence lawrence before President Trumps surprise trip to iraq, the media constantly attacked him for not visiting the troops. You would think they would be happy to see President Trump in a combat zone, right . But they werent. Not so fast. Check out the medias latest case of whiplash. We saw the president signing the president s red campaign hat make America Great again hat. The president seems to have confused this trip with a campaign rally. Every time he is around military audiences he tends to politicize it. When we turned on cnn and we saw the president politicizing a christmas message, it was like he kept saying he is like the grinch. Mr. Trump, once again, use at captive audience of american heroes to push his unpopular domestic agenda. This time the wall. Lawrence the grinch. Morgan two things i dont like. Morgan okay. Lawrence one, i dont like president s that go overseas and apologize for our country and i also dont like when president s are overseas and the media criticizes the president while he is trying to do things for our troops. Whats your take . Morgan i spent a holiday in 2007 i was in baghdad. I wasnt on military deployment i was on civilian mobilization at that time with usaid. Its tough when you are overseas and spending thanksgiving and christmas. Any time you are there an the president any president of any party comes over, you are soaks sighted because you are working. You are in the trenches, you are away from your family. You away from your friends. I think its great that the president went. For the people that dont understand the militarys excitement, many of the members to seat president , they feel that way for this president they feel that way for any president coming over. They serve, we all serve at the pleasure of the commanderinchief. So, i dont really understand this collective freakout about people being excited to seat president. They should be. Lets give him a break. Maria to be fair some of that criticism is overblown. There are legitimate criticisms of some of the things President Trump said. He lied to them and said he hadnt gotten a pay raise until he gave them one. Thats not true. He told them it was 10 . Thats not true. He also weighed into some domestic political issues like the wall which to many people seemed a little bit inappropriate. Its very good that he went. Some media criticism is too far. Lawrence they loved it, maria. Did you see those military men and women were excited had maga hats, tshirts and flags. Maria fair to point out that the president told them things inaccurate when their pay raises. Thats factchecking a president. Lawrence i totally agree with the reach. The bulk was the accurately what the president. They shouldnt have had hats. Those men and women looked like they were having a good time. Dana absolutely. I feel like one about the wall the president sees that as National Security. He doesnt see that as domestic issue. Maria he attacked democrats. Tom in other words, he behaved exactly as he always does. Maria that doesnt make it okay. It doesnt make it right. Tom when are people going to stop being surprised though. To me look at the way he behaved in unprecedented fashion. Thats the way he always behaves. Dana a trip like that is hard to plan. It was an important one to do. If you are somebody who was concerned about the president s seemingly abrupt decision to pull out of syria. The other thing you got yesterday is to find out he has no plans to take troops out of iraq and he thinks we can stage attacks from iraq if we need to. So, that should be a good things. If you dont like the way he delivered it thats okay. Lawrence there was news in the president when he was talking about what actually happened and how he got to this decision. He talked about that he had told. Morgan are you talking about syria . Lawrence yes. He talked to the generals you have got six months to do. This they came back to the president and said we need more time. They came a second time we need more time. That third time he decided that no, guys. We have set a deadline. Do you think the president set this deadline because of a Campaign Promise and he should have listened to the generals more or do you think he is right on this . Morgan what we are going through right now is a transition in our National Security. The president s Team First Year in office laid out the National Security strategy. That is how does the president see the world. Maria has probably been a part of drafting these in the Obama Administration. In that National Security strategy. Shifted us to great power conflict with russia. With china, a focus on that. So the president is trying to shift us from a middle east focus strategy and admittedly the Obama Administration wanted to focus us towards asia. What happens is when you are shifting military equipment is different. Fighting is different. In the middle of the transition of the forces and that is sometimes rocky. Maria you are so focused on countries like iran and their power in the region. We have talked about this. Do you agree with abruptly pulling out and letting iran fill that vacuum. Morgan i do not. What has been communicated over the last week seems that the president is starting to slow down that decision. That is not happening overnight. I think the president s team put out a fantastic strategy to counter iran. You cant counter iran if you are not in the region. Its impossible. Perhaps you are saying i dont understand to counter iran anymore or i want to focus on isis. It is done. Moving on. The American People need to understand what the strategy is because we have a streargd. If we are going to counter them we have to be in the region it doesnt mean in syria. I can spend another hour with maria going over this stuff. She has a lot of experience in this area, too. Lawrence president said thats why he is leaving people in iraq as well, too. They can rush there if there is any type of conflict where he feels like any type of terrorist organization is gaining more ground. Do you think thats the correct strategy . Tom i mean, it may be. Thats what i have been saying on the radio all week. I dont know if i would agree with trumps strategy or mad dog mattis strategy. But, i dont think its unprecedented. The president has an opinion that we should pull our troops out of syria. You are right. They are going to be still in the region. We are still going to be there. I think that the press overreacts to everything the president does and they did to this visit. I mean, the signing of the maga hat. Somebody came on and the analysis was its a violation of the hatch act. Is he signing a maga hat. We know the guys like the hats. They want him to signed hat. He used of the word what is the word he used . Suckers. America is no longer suck ires. How dare you call our troops suckers. He wasnt calling the troops suckers. America, part of America First philosophy. We dont need our troops fighting at a disadvantage. Its always the overreaction. I dont think you do it maria harf. Maria thank you. I try not to. I think people do. Every little thing they blow out of proportion there were legitimate things to criticize on this visit. His language matters. Right . Tom did the suckers bother you . Maria not the worst thing i have heard him say but i didnt like it. I dont like when he is asked are you nerve bus about coming to a war zone he made it about how dangerous he was about the danger . Lawrence wasnt that that real in the president has never been there before. The shades are down. Dana and he had his wife. Maria its a problem he hasnt been there before. Dana why . Maria the troops pay raises i really dont like that. Its a fact. He said it wrong. Lawrence why does it bother you that he talked about him being afraid going into a war zone . Maria he should talk about their sacrifice and not his. I think if i were his Communications Advisor thats what i would advise dollars him. Im not making a civil case out of it. Lawrence when i watch those military mental and women being so excited i think we should leave it up to them. Maria some military folks have been on tv in the past few days criticizing it sides in the military on all sides of the political aisle. Lawrence putting our political knowledge to test when the quiz show comes back on the five. Hello mom. Amandas moms appointment just got rescheduled for today. Amanda needs right at home.

When you try to quit smoking, with or without chantix, you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Some people had changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, or suicidal thoughts or actions with chantix. Serious side effects may include seizures, new or worse heart or blood vessel problems, sleepwalking, or allergic and skin reactions which can be lifethreatening. Stop chantix and get help right away if you have any of these. Tell your Healthcare Provider if youve had depression or other Mental Health problems. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix.
