Generally not all it s cracked up to be but it s a big symbolic thing, especially for voters who, you know, size of government. well, size of government keeps expanding. in fairness new york times and washington post both have trade as above the fold start. so i think the point is that the country wants donald trump not to focus on the size of his crowd and whether or not the election was legitimate, which he s obsessed with and to focus on these things and yesterday he started to do that. our job in the media is to focus on policy. that s the tale of the tape. every day, policy. but the side stories, why doesn t he realize he s president. yesterday was meet the president for trump and meet the press for his press secretary. sean spicer sought to reset relations with the media after his controversial statement on crowd size.
Single moment. this president they will focus because they don t know what he s going to do. co-chair of super pac supported donald trump, supported him during the campaign but you also were critical of him at times, with the khan family. if the election held today, no way because of the way he s conducting himself. what would you tell a man, new ronald reagan about comporting himself in the wows. one of the advantages with the super pac you don t get to deal with the candidate. one of the disadvantages you don t get to deal with candidate or campaign. part of my role on the network, i try to be honest, i m 74 years old, i ve been around this game a long time, i always try to tell what i see happening. i think to a certain extent there were mistakes in the campaign. it was an up and down campaign. at the end of the day he tapped into the environment nobody else saw or saw as well as they should have. we ran around for two years thinking hitler was inevitable nominee and inevitable
Regulations by 75%. later he sat down with union leaders who praised him for canceling tpp and his promising to spend on infrastructure. let s stop right there for a second. talk, willie, about the reordering of the political process. you actually had union leaders, bernie sanders, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, democrats all on donald trump s side on tpp. i can tell you that is actually significant and you would have to go back to the teamsters actually endorsing ronald reagan in 1980 to find that. certainly got against republican party orthodoxy to come out against free trade. this is not a surprise to anybody. this is central campaign promises, something he lined up with hillary clinton on during the campaign. a big statement put out yesterday from bernie sanders celebrating, endorsing the decision to pull ow of the negotiation for tpp. so you have a republican
Themselves. that will offend the trump people and that will offend a lot of the marchers. but you win and you change the dynamics of politics, which democrats desperately need to do by actually reaching out and going to the other side. i saw no evidence that happened. i will ask one more time before we go to break, name the speaker, name the person, name anybody that would be seen as somebody that could reach out to middle america or moderate america or conservative america. joe, you re missing the purpose. joe, it s day one. it wasn t a policy i don t have to scream. i said that donald trump s address was not an inaugural address, it was a primal scream. if you re just telling me that the purpose of this was just to tell donald trump how angry they were, that is a primal scream
Other politician i have ever covered in my life, ever, despite the fact extraordinarily harsh on foreign policy. if your child if you want your child to have somebody, a politician whose character they can exemplify, i m not talking politics, barack obama is a damn good place to start. i agree. i agree most of the time his administration was. you can look at what wen rhodes did on the iran deal and there are other examples. i agree overall the last administration was laudable in their failure to tell lies. this president did like he did yesterday, the popular vote, continues to tell lies that bring him no benefit. chipping the ball into the pond. if you listen to sean spicer yesterday he talked about the coverage of the early trump administration as being demoralizing reflecting this was about donald trump s feelings, that he doesn t feel good and he s made and saying the things he s saying.
