Majority of americans. He lost the overall popular vote by nearly 3 million people. Last night, after stunning victories from democrats across the nation in nearly every contest, there came a reminder that this is not Donald Trumps network. Including the marquise governors race in virginia, where democrats had been quite worried that Lieutenant Governor Ralph Northam could lose to republican lobbyist, ed gillespie, who cynically embraced the president s grievance playbook with ads about kneeling nfl players and protecting confederate monuments. Instead, northam absolutely crushed gillespie, winning by nine points, and nearly doubling Hillary Clintons margin over trump in virginia last year. Something that i am so proud of and i remind you all the time, we live in a very Diverse Society. It is getting more diverse every day. It is that Diverse Society that makes this country great that vision of a pluralistic, multicultural america was a direct repudiation of trumps White Nationalist po
The tough road ahead for the republicans. Trade between china and the United States has not been over the last many, many years a fair one for us. But i dont blame china. Who can blame a country for being able to take advantage of another country for the benefit of its citizens. I give china great credit. A kinder, gentler President Trump on display. Markedly different from the tactics that propelled him to the white house. Kentucky senator rand paul is recovering out of the spotlight from an assault in his own front yard. Boucher is accused of tackling the senator while he mowed his lawn. He is charged with domestic violence. He is revealing more about his injury. Were now learning resulted in six broken ribs. This is a personal disagreement between these two gentlemen. You just dont think something that small could cause something this big. Its kind of a big deal. Well get to that in a bit. But we want to begin with your taxes. Right now the house ways and Means Committee is getting
Financial decisions. Even had veto power over hiring at the dnc. The revelation is shocking, even to people who suspected it was true, and it is now splitting the Democratic Party. Senator Elizabeth Warren now says the 2016 race was rigged in the primaries. Current dnc deputy chair Keith Ellison supported Bernie Sanders, he said the party is betraying millions of voters. House leader nancy pelosi says, stop talking about it. Time to move on to the next election, not feud over the last one. What about voters . Do they have a say . Should they have a say . Christy setzer, democratic strategist, president of new heights communication, joins us tonight. Thank you for coming on. Im really glad to be here. Thanks, tucker. Tucker how is this not the definition of corruption . Well, i know that Donna Brazile would like to sell some books. However, she fails to account for two things. The main argument she makes in this supposedly explosive piece is, one, that when she got to the dnc, two thing
Kind of populist nationalist issues are winners. Why the spectacular failure of trumpism without trump means big trouble with republicans. All of a sudden gillespie caught fire, because hes embracing trumpism. All in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hawes. Donald trump won the presidency of the United States one year ago tonight, but not with a majority of americans. He lost the overall popular vote by nearly 3 million people. Last night, after stunning victories from democrats across the nation in nearly every contest, there came a reminder that this is not Donald Trumps network. Including the marquise governors race in virginia, where democrats had been quite worried that Lieutenant Governor Ralph Northam could lose to republican lobbyist, ed gillespie, who cynically embraced the president s grievance playbook with ads about kneeling nfl players and protecting confederate monuments.

And heres the theory. If you believe that voters in virginia voted for governor today with a wider message in mind, then tonight was a very bad night for the Trump Control Republican Party and a very good night for a Democratic Party in search of good news. Ralph northam, the democrat, is celebrating an easier than expected victory. He is governor elect of the Common Wealth of virginia defeating the republican ed gillespie, the former gop party chair now turned away in two major elections for senate and governor. While traveling halfway around the world, the president rushed to distance himself from gillespie writing on twitter from south korea that, quote, ed gillespie worked hard but did not embrace me or what i stand for. And that is partially true. Gillespie didnt let trump anywhere near him but ran a campaign fueled and continuinged by trumpism. Heres a little bit of what northam said at his victory speech in the last hour. You know, it was said that the eyes of the nation are now
