can you give us any sense from your reporting about how far along that investigation is? well, as any investigation, we re a little blind. but what we can see is they have gone very, very deep. as you said, literally into some of these properties where they think trump was distorting the value of the property, giving a really high valuation to somebody and a really low valuation. you know, these things are always a little bit subjective, but i think what the a.g. and the d.a. are trying to do is to figure out, okay, what facts can we establish, what s not subjective about this? so in this case that means learning like what are the rock layers under this california course because trump was claiming in one venue that he could build dozens of houses on that land and in another venue he s claiming he couldn t build anything. what was the truth? what was he really allowed to do? what would it be possible to do there? so they seem to have gone very, very deep on at least a few properties w
success. next year will not be a race surrounded by tentacles of health care. you k have that discussion all day long, but that plays into the wheel house for trump, the election for a lot of people is not about the specifics of policy, it s about the nature and the direction of the country. our recipes for success are focusing on swing states like pinz, virginia, wisconsin, can states with a huge amount of voters that are union members. union members have fought and given up income because they care so much about health care? the never trump par of the discussion, the swing state part of the discussion, is something that i think elizabeth warren tries to kick down the road a little bit. this is the activist wing of the
