fletcher won in the suburbs of houston. and dallas. in california where regan country is all blue, i believe the more he does this and turns off those suburban voters in suburban milwaukee, suburban detroit, suburban pittsburgh and philadelphia, he makes it harder, he s also going to drive up the turnout in detroit, in philadelphia, in milwaukee. some people, you know, they hear what he s doing and they have heart burn. they think well, you know, is he going to be able to get another electoral college victory? i see the strategy but i believe he s hurting himself doing this and this is a sign not of confidence but desperation of trying to eke out a little bit more from a base that ain t going to go very far for him. some have said that this is not going to be a race about who has the best plan because frankly, the president got
i m unhappy with the fact that a congresswoman can hate our country. i m unhappy with the fact that a congresswoman can say antis-semitic things. i m unhappy with the fact that a congress wwoman in this case, a different congresswoman can call our country and people cgarbage. that s what i m unhappy with. these people in that stadium was packed i could have called it ten times. those are incredible people and patriots. okay. so that whole thing he said yesterday is throw that out. a whole day of people claiming he has regrets and renounces the chant. that was what was on tv all day yesterday and all the surrogates were out there singing the chant. you heard the president, he s repudiated that chant and went back to embracing the chanters as incredible patriots.
that s what he s trying to do but i know because i ve seen that the values that we have of basic respect for each other, of love of country, of compassion, of hard work, that those no know boundary so the collision of people who are white, who are black, who are latino, asian american, native american, rich, poor, muslim, jewish, christian, i believe is much stronger than his narrow base of people who support him and that s why i actually feel that the more he does this, that the better the odds get for democrats in 2020. is it i mean, this is likely to be a corner stone of the president s campaign so how do you as a candidate for the democratic nomination of president as you are, how do you take on that on the trail without it also derailing you from talking about the issues that, you know, table top issues that people care about and that,

and do a strongly worded tweet or say this is hateful. this is the scene in the movie, anderson, where it will decide the future of the country for the next two or three years. scott, it is strange not strange. it s obvious but when the president did allegedly seem to kind of repudiate it a little bit, he i mean, he was clearly lying about trying to stop the chant. you know, he said he quickly started talking again. he was uncomfortable. he didn t like it. but i mean, 13 seconds went by and just watching him soak it in, allowing the chant to build, you know, if not only is he not really sincere, it seems, in repute iddiating it but he s al lying about what he did. look, he is going to have another chance to get this right and i hope he does get it right. i don t think he got it right in the moment. i don t like the chant. i don t like the fact it happened at a big rally and he didn t take the opportunity to
