could someone from the center? they ride up the center in 2019-2020. mike, i feel like we re headed to something you ve got trump and his base, you may have elizabeth warren and her base. this is what the two bases of the political parties actually want this. here, this is who we really are, you in the middle. you decide, hold your nose and pick a side. right. is that how the 2020 race is going to be? it s normally a card trick. pick any card you don t want. the problem is there s a great appetite for centerists but there is no distribution system. we re not built for 7-up to be number 1, it s coke or pepsi. it s distribution. it is a hard to run a third-party candidate. you wind up in the electoral college where you ask the two parties to put themselves out of business. my bet is you re going to have somebody trumpian. look, i do think if we have a bumpy midterm the whole trump thing in 19 could be a whole new ball game. on the democratic side the muscle is on the progressive
president was on to something. but we saw absolute crickets after those meetings and that should tell us that the president here is yet again lying about what s going on. that s the danger. he s lying. and joyce is right, mike. they would have shown up on sean hannity. they would have been booked in packs of three, shoulder to shoulder shots from the capital saying, aha, we got it, the smoking gun. very troubling. there is nothing. no, there was nothing. the whole thing was a card trick and a bad one. the problem is the reason the president won t defend the national interest or the idea the russians were undermining our democracy is he thinks his interest is the national interest. he is that i believe self-obsessed. if it s good for him, it s good for america. if it s attacking him, it s attacking american. he cannot see foreign enemies, he only sees trump enemies. he is the first president in modern history, and i ll include nixon in this or clinton, who is immune from shame
we would have seen republicans emerge and say, aha, the president was onto something. but we saw absolute crickets after those meetings and that should tell us that the president here is yet again lying about what s going on. that s the danger. he s lying. and joyce is right, mike. they would have shown up on sean hannity. they would have been booked in packs of three, shoulder to shoulder shots from the capital saying, aha, we got it, the smoking gun. very troubling. there is nothing. there is nothing. the whole thing was a card trick and a bad one. the reason the president won t defend the national interest or the idea the russians were undermining our democracy is he thinks his interest is the national interest. he is that i believe self-obsessed. if it s good for him it s good for america. if it s attacking him, it s attacking american. he cannot see foreign enemies, he only sees trump enemies. he is the first president in modern history and i ll include nixon in this or cl
