hasn t been able to sustain those big moments. and she needs not just to have, i guess, that big moment again but she needs to be able to hold onto that support. that s been a challenge. that s why we call it blocking and tackling sometimes. sometimes a plan every three days, three yards in a cloud of dust, seems to be working for elizabeth warren. anyway, markos from out west, thank you. always a pleasure to hear your views. alexi, doug and ramesh, you re sticking around. what one of the most outspoken critics of president trump says he s going to do when it comes to making a 2020 pick. first, another big moment from last night s debate. when senator kamala harris took a trip down the yellow brick road. you asked earlier about china be. it s a complicated relationship. we have to hold china accountable. but the bottom line is this, donald trump in office on trade policy, you know, he reminds me of that guy in the wizard of
combines those two things. it would be a very delicate negotiation and exercise in coalition-building. i haven t seen this president able to do that before. and so this would have to be the first time. i think he s asked for something like 14 different proposals from folks around him for a gun legislation plan. so i get the sense he personally would like to say he signed a background check bill but somebody said you re not going to get any credit for it from the people you want the credit for it. ted cruz said if we do this, if we pass a background check bill in a 2020 election, it s going to demotivate conservatives. i actually think trump, or his people were hoping ted cruz would say that so now they have an excuse not to do anything. i think that s the decision that s been made. thank you. there s nothing like a post-debate panel. up ahead, why i m obsessed with the deafening sound of silence. first, here s cory booker and food for thought. senator booker, let me ask
no, he was denying he said very clearly, if you lose your job, that you can automatically buy into his plan. folks need to catch the significance of that. that would mean that a lot of people would be left uncovered. you know, this is what these debates are for. we re having a disagreement about something that s very important. i understand that. let s go to the issue of the perception problem you may be facing. i understand you were not issuing a personal attack. amy klobuchar says, when you demonize somebody and create bad blood, it s hard to u.n.fy afterwards. forget what you intended, if three of your colleagues, all of whom i think you are in very good and personal, friendly terms with believe what you did sounded like a personal attack, do you now look at it and go, well, maybe i should have used differen different words? not at all the. look, we re up there to debate and that s what i was doing.
leave 10 million people uncovered. at at that time vice president biden in detroit said, no it wouldn t. the news media did the research and said, yes, his plan would leave 10 million people uncovered. i pointed that out. to me, 10 million people uncovered is not inconsequential. whether you re looking at it from 30,000 feet or you re looking at it from right at ground level. that s allot of people. right now there are 27 million people uncovered. there would still be 10 million people uncovered under vice president biden s plan. this was a disagreement about health care. he said very clearly that some folks would have to buy in. i said, you just said that and he said, no, they wouldn t have to buy in. that s why i said, look, it seems like you re forgetting that you just said, you know, that some people would have to buy in. and he did say that. he also said there would be people that would automatically get enrolled in his answer, too. that was heard. for what it s worth, he di
points. she s methodically growing her support, apparently oneselfy at a time, one plan at a time. it s the right way. it s solid. and it requires zero gimmicks or viral moments to work. i think those are fair points. doug thornell, what did you think? i think i agree with markos. i think elizabeth warren put in an artistic performance. it s a textbook version of how to debate. she does this thing with bernie sanders that i don t know if everyone catches. someone throws a punch at her or intended to be at her or are some of her positions. she ducks, it hits imprebernie e responds. it s unbelievable. it s true. it s true. and it remains she remains on message throughout the entire debate. she s been look, agree with her, disagree with her, she is a top-notch debater. and i think she joe biden had a strong night. i think bernie was fine but i don t think he advanced the ball at all. alexi, one of the debates
