that s the coastal elite problem, if you will. what i would say about this currents conversation, you know the idea that the democrats are going to outtrump trump in 20 is implausible not only for a specific reason. i can think of a single democrat in the field who can do the world federation wrestling thing the way donald trump does. i can think of anyone else on the planet who can do that as effectively as trump. you should not try to out trump trump. that s a recipe for total failure. the other thing to say in all this while a lot of people mike s right view president trump is practicing politics personal destruction, burning people down, there s a large swath of this country what s happening with judge kavanaugh and thinking the opposite. democrats are pragmatic the politics of personal destruction, burning a good man down. that s their view. that s absolutely true.
bullying and division and all of these topics that mike is bringing up. authors, tara westover. a bunch of people are coming through. we re focused on a lot on democracy and the future of the constitution. it s going to be an excite be time in the next couple of days here in washington over that. but we do have kamala harris, jeff flake is speaking. so we might we re going to have plenty of opportunities here at the atlantic to ask people deciding kavanaugh s fate what they are thinking in real-time. mike, what you were talking about this idea of civility and what we need as a country. there s a huge debate among democrats right now, if you re talking about whether trump will win re-election it depends who they nominate go against him. they want somebody in the party that acts like he does. i think you see it, michael avenatti picking up on that or
