breaking tonight americans dreaming of a white christmas and one former president dreaming of a white house and his new pole numbers show path back to 1600 is wider. mr. trump leading a wall street journal pole he is never lead. and hillary clinton is back on the trail for joe biden. another democrat might also jump in the race. the senior national core sponldant is live with the latest on particular 2024 and things are getting interesting. i love this stuff am i know you do, too. when you thought you never hear more from hillary clinton relate to presidential politics. you see she is going to hit the campaign trail for president biden as a 2024 campaign heats up whether that helps or hurts depends. one thing is for certain he could use help. the late poling shows his support is mrs. and i had party it is not have a plan. any measure he could use help that is evidenced by the wall street journal survey asks whom people vote were the election held today. former president
expected that race to be called so quickly. and so i think a lot of the commentary that will be coming in the next couple days is what kind of message is san francisco trying to show? san francisco, of course, has always had sort of a left and leftier divide in the city. so it s not that the city is necessarily turning towards republicans. but i do think there s a fair question about what the future of democrats will be when it comes to this question about criminal justice. christina, your thoughts as well on california this evening. anything surprising you? yeah. well, one thing i want to go back to something steve kornacki was talking about with david valadao, that race is fascinating because valadao is the only congressional republican who voted to impeach donald trump who trump has not endorsed a challenger. so imagine if trump had gotten involved in that race how those numbers might have looked a little different. the assembly member salas has run in that exact same area

were, bernie would come out with something even bigger, loftier and leftier, regardless of whether it was realistic or not. bernie sanders just stole all of hillary clinton s ideas. does anyone really believe that? the truth is, the real story is that the ideas we brought forth during that campaign, which was so crazy and radical, have increasingly become main stream. i talked about a $15 an hour minimum wage. hillary did not. we ve got 31 co-sponsors for $15 an hour minimum wage. we talked about a trillion-dollar infrastructure.
