Yesterday. If le pen and far left candidate are the two top vote getters. Emmanuel macron. I love when you speak spanish, even the words flow it was a good day. Ultimately structurally in terms of french politics, what a revolution. Explosion. First time since 1965 you didnt have somebody from center right or center left. This seems to be french people saying, fine, well have your Political Revolution but were going to do it in a way that doesnt completely uproot french tradition. I think youre almost certainlily right. Two weeks before the final round, the establishment has already begun to rally around Emmanuel Macron. So the markets we s up a couple hundred points, they would have bun down a hell of a lot more. New york times, we have no idea because were americans, but ugly americans, isolated, le pen gets 5 of the tally in paris but actually cleans up in the south of france. The story of two frances. All right. Yeah. Explain that to me during the break. Mika not there stimulating
Electoral test at the iowa caucuses. Then, after that, mere 304 days until the winner of the partys primary faces President Trump in the 2020 election. But with the clock winding down on the two crucial dates, democratic voters remain divided on the direction they believe the country should take, and theyre even more divided over the candidate who should lead it. The party is locked in a battle over ideology between moderates and progressives. Former Vice President joe biden holds the national lead, he is far from democrats standard bearer. The only thing democrats seem to be united on is the desire to beat donald trump. That might not be quite enough. While the president could be weakened by impeachment and dogged by a widespread collapse of his Foreign Policy agenda, democrats are no closer to defeating mr. Trump than they were three years ago. Exhibit one, the Trump Campaigns massive 46 million fundraising haul. The largest total yet, proof that trump and his base remain embolden by
litmus test for any politician. all it will do, by the way, populist candidate in mexico, mexican elections are in 15 months, summer of 2018. the former mayor of mexico city is their version of donald trump. right now he s leading in all the polls. if donald trump keeps pushing to have mexican government paying for the wall he will elect mr. lopez and that will cause, shall we say, problems in our relationship that neither country needs. sounds fantastic. sounds like exactly what we should be doing. thank you, richard. senate minority leader chuck schumer will be here on set coming up. plus republican congressman tom cole. nbc kristen welker with latest reporting from the white house and michael schmitt from new york times. quite a piece. amazing. already shaping up to be a big show tomorrow. among our guests, john kasich and former mayor mike bloomberg.

scorecard of the first 100 days, democrats are feeling much better today about where they are than when the trump administration started. in part, because nancy pelosi, chuck schumer and caucuses in both houses of chambers are united about how they want to go forward. it s a real strength of the party right now. chuck schumer, joining us shortly. he has presented them with very few hard choices. i don t mean to take anything away from nancy pell owesy and chuc schumer, but donald trump could have cleeved the democratic party in pieces and instead he has made it easy for not giving them anything that they had hard choices on. this tom perez statement saying, you know, you must be this way on this issue or you get no support from democrats. you just stopped yourself from winning a majority. he s in a tough position. i was out with those guys last week, sanders and perez. he barely won the chairmanship. the party is divided on some of
