regulations by 75%. later he sat down with union leaders who praised him for canceling tpp and his promising to spend on infrastructure. let s stop right there for a second. talk, willie, about the reordering of the political process. you actually had union leaders, bernie sanders, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, democrats all on donald trump s side on tpp. i can tell you that is actually significant and you would have to go back to the teamsters actually endorsing ronald reagan in 1980 to find that. certainly got against republican party orthodoxy to come out against free trade. this is not a surprise to anybody. this is central campaign promises, something he lined up with hillary clinton on during the campaign. a big statement put out yesterday from bernie sanders celebrating, endorsing the decision to pull ow of the negotiation for tpp. so you have a republican
themselves. that will offend the trump people and that will offend a lot of the marchers. but you win and you change the dynamics of politics, which democrats desperately need to do by actually reaching out and going to the other side. i saw no evidence that happened. i will ask one more time before we go to break, name the speaker, name the person, name anybody that would be seen as somebody that could reach out to middle america or moderate america or conservative america. joe, you re missing the purpose. joe, it s day one. it wasn t a policy i don t have to scream. i said that donald trump s address was not an inaugural address, it was a primal scream. if you re just telling me that the purpose of this was just to tell donald trump how angry they were, that is a primal scream
other politician i have ever covered in my life, ever, despite the fact extraordinarily harsh on foreign policy. if your child if you want your child to have somebody, a politician whose character they can exemplify, i m not talking politics, barack obama is a damn good place to start. i agree. i agree most of the time his administration was. you can look at what wen rhodes did on the iran deal and there are other examples. i agree overall the last administration was laudable in their failure to tell lies. this president did like he did yesterday, the popular vote, continues to tell lies that bring him no benefit. chipping the ball into the pond. if you listen to sean spicer yesterday he talked about the coverage of the early trump administration as being demoralizing reflecting this was about donald trump s feelings, that he doesn t feel good and he s made and saying the things he s saying.
year, last year, he didn t go away. he kept going up. and i think democrats now have to be prepared for a trump nomination. and he is enormously talented. fatally flawed. i don t think he can be president but upended the republican party. fatally flawed is exactly what the gop says about hillary clinton, and if you face donald trump, how do you think she weathers the relentless battering he will give you on all the things you don t like to talk about? trump against hillary, i would, i would bet the farm. here s why. why? on that, he loves to attack, but he s a bully. bullies back downed when you stand up to them. donald trump couldn t last three hours in a debate, had to negotiate it down to two. hillary testified under withering opponents and didn t faint or negotiate down to two
responding. just 42 minutes after releasing that statement, senator rand paul responded saying, donald trump couldn t set the intellectual conservative agenda of anything, not even the tiniest rooms, never mind a country. he is devoid of ideas other than he likes the idea of power and getting attention for foolish statements and bluster. joining us with no foolish statements or bluster, jonathon alter, james traub, lauren fox, correspondent for the national journal. that is fun reading the trump response against him. listen, of all of the things that i have in that teleprompter a trump response to someone who attacked him and response back to that is about as good as it gets. i love the trump response. no sub stance whatsoever. the attack ad hits him on his previous policies an the response says this guy s a loser. well, trump has often said if
