edge, and there was some kind of execution problem in getting some of the people out in the states. take a look at donald trump on the ground game also in that david axelrod interview. part of what we have to do to rebuild is to be there, and that means organizing, that means caring about state parties, it means caring about local race, state boards or school boards and city councils and state legislative races. and not thinking that somehow just a great set of progressive policies that we present to the new york times editorial board will win the day. now, candidly, jaime, you re not the candidate in the dnc race who is closest to president obama. are you running more as the state party or grassroots candidate then? i am. i m running for 57 i know we got 50 states, but we got six
handle that w question that i just discussed? well, first of all, happy holidays, ari. it s good seeing you again. i believe in this philosophy. you go the a lot of five and ten stores that are still left in k south carolina and you usually see signs that say, touch it, break it, own it. they touched this government, they broke it under president obama and now they own it. and now, retribution is at play. we cannot allow donald trump and the republicans to ramrod into this government these folks who want to bring us back to a bygone era as it relates to so many that we enjoy. we see what s going on in north carolina right now in terms of rolling back on right. i expect similar things to happen in our federal government. so what should your party do with regard to trump s supreme court nominee?
club would make a donation to a veterans charity. that would be a nice thing. you might think it s the end of the story. but then less than two months before election day this year, the washington post s david farenthold discovered trump never donated that money to those charities at all. instead something called the trump foundation made those donations and the trump foundation gives new meaning to opp, other people s property, because it s funded almost entirely with other people s money. right around the time that trump was embroiled in this lawsuit against palm beach over the height of that flag pole, he was transforming the trump foundation, quote, into something rarely seen in the world of philanthropy, a name-branded foundation whose namesake provides none of its money. so donald trump solicits donations from wealthy people for the foundation, then doles that money out under his own name, which would be a weird and pretty misleading way to run a
