jordan, cambodia, all of those deals which i ve covered. this is new all of a sudden that the guiding light should be america s interests. well, chris, if you define america s interests as corporate interests, as american corporations profitability, that s old republican donctrine. nothing new here except this donald trump gloss that s put over it. this populist worker gloss. if you look beneath the gloss, what you find is the same old republican doctrine and that is tax breaks for corporations, every effort to make corporations more profitable will somehow trickle down to the benefit of america. that s trickledown economics. we ve been here before, seen it before. it s just dressed up differently now. sara, let me ask you this, when the auto bailout happened, you had republicans saying this was essentially stalinism come to the u.s.
mitch mcconnell we re trying to get trump involved. he won t get involved. and a whole bunch of thousands of workers, retirees and widows are unfortunately going to face christmas with their health care cut off. senator sherrod brown of ohio. thank you very much, appreciate it. thanks very much, chris. joining me now robert reich, former secretary of labor and the author of saving capital and former deputy campaign manager for carly fiorina when she was running for president. i m interested by the tangle of ideological lines that have been created. a line mike pence said about the free market. the free market has been sorting it out for years now and america is losing. a pullout today asking americans if they agree with that. they agree that americans have been losing. a minority of democrats agree with that. is it now republican and conservative doctrine that the free market has been sorting it out and america is losing because of the free market?
