Democrat doug jones win over roy moore in alabama changes the political calculus for 2018. We have come so far, and the people of alabama have spoken. Republicans may be relieved that roy moore is gone im really, really happy with what happened for all of us. But democrats suddenly sense the possibility of taking back both the house and the senate. I think that the energy going into 2018 has already begun. My guest this morning, democratic senator joe manchin of West Virginia and republican Governor John Kasich of ohio. Plus, our brandnew nbc news wall street journal poll out this morning, and it suggests democrats may be right, that a wave is coming. Well bring you all the numbers. And republicans get the votes to pass their tax bill. This is going to be one of the great gifts to the middleincome people of this country. But can they keep their promise that the tax cuts may for themselves . And who gets hurt if they dont . Ill ask the white house director of legislative affairs, mark short. Joining me for insight and analysis are syndicated columnist george will, Helene Cooper of the the new york times, al cardenas, former head of the american conservative union, and former Obama Deputy Campaign manager Stephanie Cutter. Welcome to sunday. Its meet the press. Announcer from nbc news in washington, the longest running show in television history. This is meet the press with chuck todd. Good sunday morning. If you have the sense that history may be repeating itself, youre not alone. Back in 2010, there was a president with sinking Approval Ratings, an unpopular piece of legislation, obamacare, supported by just one party, and a republican, scott brown, won a senate race in cobalt blue massachusetts, suggesting a huge republican wave was coming. Well, it was. Republicans won 63 house seats in 2010 and 6 senate seats. Today we have a president with sinking Approval Ratings, an unpopular piece of legislation, the tax bill, supported by just one party, and a democrat, doug jones, won a senate race in ruby red alabama. Democrats are hoping to catch a wave and sit on top of the political world. In our brandnew nbc news wall street journal poll, it suggests that the surfs up. When asked who they would prefer to control congress, 50 said democrats, just 39 said republicans. You have to understand, our poll doesnt show this very often, this kind of spread. It was the first time the democrats have been at 50 in our poll with a doubledigit lead since september 2008, before the obamaled democratic wave of that year. The enthusiasm is all with the democrats as well. 59 of democrats tell us that they have a high level of interest in next years elections compared to just 49 for republicans. As for President Trump, his Approval Rating stands at 41 in our poll, versus 56 who say they disapprove of his performance. Thats slightly better for him than two months ago, when the results were 38 58 . Still that 41 is lower than any other president has scored in our poll at this stage of the presidency. And a year out from the 2018 midterms, the democrats do have reason to be optimistic. The people of alabama have spoken. They have said we [ cheers and applause ] a stunning Democratic Victory in a deep red state is the latest evidence that it may be time for republicans to panic. Challenged by the president to vote for roy moore get out and vote for roy moore. Many republicans stayed home. And in a state which elected mr. Trump last year with 62 of the vote, just 48 of voters this year said they approved of the president. They run, you know, as a party of trump and moore, thats, like i said, thats not a winning combination in 2018. Democrats see a wave of enthusiasm heading into 2018. I think that the energy going into 2018 has already begun. Reporter africanamerican voters were highly motivated on tuesday, making up a higher share of the electorate than in 2012. The last time president obama was on the ballot. Plus, the cultural revolution on the issue of Sexual Harassment and assault did not skip over alabama, contributing to a 16point advantage for doug jones with women, powered by 98 support among africanamerican women. And alabama once again exposed the deep divisions between the Republican Partys establishment and populist wings. I know were supposed to cheer for our side of the aisle, if you will, but im really, really happy with what happened. Republicans blame roy moore. This is a rebuke of a candidate. We had a blemished candidate. We had a flawed candidate. Alabamans didnt want somebody who dated 14yearold girls. But despite moores obvious flaws, democrats are sounding confident. The republican brand, even in deep red alabama, is positively toxic. One challenge for the party, within base voters are enthusiastic about impeachment, and democrats risk overplaying their hand. You dont think impeachment should be the primary message of the Democratic Party in 2018 . No, i do not. Democrats are defending 26 senate seats next year compared with just 8 for republicans. Ten of those democratic seats are in states mr. Trump won, including five where he won by at least 18 points, but democrats just won a senate seat in a state he carried by 28 points, and the party is becoming extraordinarily confident about its chances in the house. I think were going to win the senate and the house. Joining me now is one of those red state democrats that is on the ballot in 2018, senator joe manchin of West Virginia. Senator manchin, welcome back to the show, sir. Thanks for having me, chuck. Let me start with this. You are representing a state that President Trump won by 40 points. Youre up for reelection in 2018. Does doug jones 43 points, to be exact. There you go. Does doug jones victory in alabama, does that give you more confidence, or does that tell you, well, if i get to run against roy moore, i can win . Well, i feel good in my state. Ive been in my state all my life, born and raised here, and ive been in Public Office for quite some time in different capacities, most recently as governor before u. S. Senator. So, i think the people know me. My brand is very independent, and my brand is all about West Virginia. And you have to be, whether youre a democrat or republican, you have to be who you are for the state you represent, and i think people know that im going to put West Virginia and my country ahead of my party. What should Chuck Schumer and nancy pelosi take away from this . Theyre the titular heads of your party right now on both the house and the senate. What lesson do you want them to take away from doug jones in alabama . Well, let me just talk about washington democrats, which im not one i am not a washington democrat. I am a West Virginia democrat. And i believe that doug jones is an alabamian democrat. Washington democrats have to understand, were a little bit different. We do, and we are very much concerned about the social issues that have divided, and it seems like the democrats have abandoned, but were going to stay true to our roots and who we are. And as long as they understand that and leave us alone, let us do our job here, were going to be just fine. When we go to washington, its not whether Chuck Schumer, who i am the world of, a good guy and a nice person and a good friend of mine, but still, yet, chuck knows im going to be voting for West Virginia. He accepts that. He understands that. And he knows exactly who i am. And the people in West Virginia know wh
