Your voice heard and getting the republican party policies out there? you have to be clear on the contrast. the democratic debate, they want to guarantee an income for people who can work but are unwilling. goes against the heart and soul of what america believes. jillian: you don t think america will vote for this. what if elizabeth warren is the candidate? the possibility today is elizabeth warren is going to become. you don t think so? the party has passed biden by. he s a very nice man but i don t believe he is up to the job at this moment in time. i think he should have run four years ago. he has run two times before and failed, don t know why it will change this time. is that the ticket? elizabeth warren versus donald trump? it would be. it will be socialism versus freedom. it will be about immigration. who wants to secure the border
The president versus members of the squad. cries of racism from the crowd in north carolina. how do you view this now? first i think the president was right to call this out. these four women are american citizens. and we should be disagreeing with their policies and what they re putting forward, not by any means disparaging their origins, ethnicity. the president did the right thing by calling out the chant that was said at that rally. that being said, you talked about, you know, the squad versus the president. this is what it comes down to is socialism versus freedom. prosperity versus more socialism. i think the more we can frame this about that choice. what has happened over the last week is there has been a crystallization of the choice that is coming up the next election. it is about these women leading the democratic party further and further to the left.
It is a great cause for the republic and let s focus on that and not make it personal. you know, alice, it s pretty clear from what donald trump is doing he does not want to make this an argument about policy. this is not about socialism versus freedom. there s a lot of republicans are saying now this is clearly a racist appeal, a xenophobic appeal. that is what he is doing because he knows that he has not delivered on his promises from 2016. he is not re-opening steel mills. he s not bringing back coal mining jobs. and this is basically a way that he can distract his blue collar supporters in swing states from his failures to deliver on his other pledges because he is basically mobilizing them against hatred of others, hatred against these women of color, hatred of muslimss, hatred of these democrats who he s attacking not with policy arguments but with these rank racist appeals. sadly it is resonating.
