Collins and john mccain. mccain in particular went after the president on healthcare. now also a holdout on tax cuts. ron johnson is from your home state. rachel: he is a businessman. he is really upset how pass through companies are not getting the same treatment as corporations. and, you know, he indicated in some interviews that he really tried to get the attention of mitch mcconnell on this and didn t feel like he was being listened to. i think this is his way to do it. i don t think it s the best strategy. i don t think you wants to show a crack. you already see that list is long enough to really derail the senate vote and this tax plan. pete: guys like rand paul and ted cruz have traditionally been told holdouts. you see them playing ball. i m sure they don t think this is perfect either. frustrating to see the same three on the list. john mccain probably won t run again. who knows. little is a murkowski and susan collins when is the last time they acted like a
Took the clinton s endorsements and campaign money and all that now all of a sudden she wants to run for president in 2020 and wants to run from the clintons. you used to go have to kiss the ring of the clintons if you wanted to run for president as a democrat. if you pile on gillibrand saying you know what? he should have resigned, not being afraid of them anymore on top of done that brazil and her book you rigid the dnc against bernie sanders. it shows the dnc going down. rachel: in the old testament they used to have this idea of sacrificial lamb and put all your sins and get absolution. clintons are sacrificial lamb all the sins for the democratic party for the last however many years they are putting on the clintons who definitely have their hands on this. they are hoping they can get that absolution to turn that page and get a new start. they don t like being in that hot seat. pete: the rest of the party wants to turn the page so hard and they are like no, keep th the book open.
Democrats gained in the primaries. hillary clinton, you know, benefited from having these super delegates. and that propelled hillary clinton to be the democratic no, ma am kneel and then she picked tim kaine as her running mate. pete: it was her complete fire wall. ed: tim kaine comes out and says i don t think we should have super delegates anymore even though it helped his running mate. he said i have long believed. not recent belong there should be super delegates. they are given undue influence in the popular nominating process and make the process less democratic small d, is bernie sanders this morning just spitting out his coffee saying i was saying this a year and a half ago and nobody would listen. how are they saying this after the fact? rachel: it s like he is kind of coming around the republican side of things. because we believe in, republicans believe in a fair fight. let the strong es candidate win. their system has long been rigged? might be the end of that. pete: long
Appropriate process because, you know, i think that something like that coming in to the public arena and al is very quick acceptance of responsibility and apology and his willingness to be investigated and to take the cons successes is the kind of accountability i m talking about. i don t hear that from roy moore or donald trump. ed: always got to bring it to donald trump no matter what. rachel: interesting the excuse me is giving franken is the same excuse democrats gave her husband which is, listen, he is goods on women s issues. he is a democrat. just kind of turn the page. don t think about that. just let him go. pete: it ultimately it s just like the glamour magazine segment you did. we want to praise women if they agree with us on every second. he is so good on women s issues. an article caught our eye in the the washington post kate harding a liberal writer basically made that exact argument. take a look at this.
Republican is going to call on him to step aside. here is al franken who is being talked about as hey, maybe, because he was standing up to jeff sessions, he was a rising star among democrats. maybe he will run for president in 2020. all of the sudden he is in trouble. yeah, right? just kidding. he is actually a huge creep. of course, republican does have a lot to be worried about with roy moore now democrats might lose a senate seat in al franken. there has been a huge push to have him resign. i personally also believe he should probably step down from his position in the senate but this is a disaster of a weekend for democrats. i would say all over though, it s pretty much been a disaster of a week for all parties involved. really doesn t look good for congress. we found out there are 15 million in settlements in cock for sexual harassment allegations over the years. i don t think anyone is coming out on top here. rachel: we see now senator jill brand has piled onto the clintons an
