24
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: so much. We're trying to be fair and balanced here

25
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,680
Speaker 1: in Washington and really talk to not only both sides

26
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: of the political industry, but to give you a perspective

27
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: chronologically as well. As we go to a most historic

28
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: super Tuesday yesterday. It's not one that I've ever seen

29
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: or Michael McKee has ever seen. More. Lathy is at Georgetown.

30
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: He's executive director of their Institute of Politics and Public Service,

31
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: exceptionally important position. He does this off of decades of

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: work for the Democratic Party as well. More wonderful day

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: have you on the show. I'm going to think of

34
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: the rhetoric forward in the next fourteen days for all

35
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: Democrats is the first do no harm? What's the number

36
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: one thing Democrats don't want to do? As we go

37
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: to Florida. Um, Look, I think, um, you know, the

38
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: trajectory that Democratic race seems pretty set. I think barring

39
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: some sort of seismic shift in the dynamic, Kellary Clinton

40
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: is is clearly on her way to the nomination, and

41
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 1: I think Bernie Sanders has done a lot to help

42
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: make her stronger candidates, help shape the debate, but I

43
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: don't think the numbers are going to be there for him.

44
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: So what Democrats, I think need to do is actually

45
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: keep their foot on the gas. I think Democrats need

46
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: to ensure that while the side show on the Republican

47
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: side continues to play out, that they're putting their their

48
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: best foot forward and making the case directly to a

49
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: general election electorate about what it is they are collectively

50
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: are going to be awesome from They don't what they

51
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 1: don't want to do, MO is the lull before the conventions.

52
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: That's a danger point, isn't it. Right? Then that and

53
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: then think that exact to my point, right, keep your

54
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: foot on the gap, keep out there, stay out there,

55
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: stay out there making the case. You know, I have

56
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: a lot of friends, former colleagues of mine in the

57
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: Democratic Party who are just sitting there gleeful and laughing

58
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: about this Donald Trump phenomenon, and I keep reminding him,

59
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: wasn't that long ago the Republican operators were laughing about

60
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump as well. He's uh, he's going to be

61
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: tough to beat in the general election. He's beautiful, but

62
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: this isn't going to be a cake walk for Democrats.

63
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: So they can't they can't afford to take break now,

64
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: They've got to continue to make the case. In my

65
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: Cleveland one week before Philadelphia is a convention schedule in July.

66
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: How how do you address as part of the campaign

67
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: Donald Trump from the Democratic side, What do you say

68
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: when you're campaigning against somebody who is who's campaigning on

69
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: the politics of anger and not necessarily the politics of

70
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: a particular policy. Yeah, look, this is tough, right. We're

71
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: in uncharted territory here. I mean, every single rule of

72
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: politics that everyone thought they knew has been thrown out

73
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: the window here, and this guy has keeps winning and overperforming, Uh,

74
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: saying things that would probably destroy any other candidates in

75
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: American history. Um. I think there's two things, and you're

76
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: you're starting to hear Hillary Clinton do it. You're starting

77
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: to hear more and more Democrats do it. Number One, Um,

78
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: I think people are angry, but I think one of

79
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: the things that they're angry about is the divisiveness coming

80
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: out of Washington. I think they are a little, uh,

81
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: a little frustrated by the fact that people are are

82
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: pinning of Americans, groups of Americans against one another. Donald

83
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: Trump feeds into that. He thrives on that, and so

84
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: the ability for Democrats continue to make that case. I

85
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be important. But the second thing, and

86
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: I think this is actually even more important um politically.

87
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: I think the fundamental question Americans are asking these days

88
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: is who's got my back? Who's looking out for me?

89
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: We don't live on versus right paradigm anymore, that we

90
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: live on an up versus down paradigm, because most Americans

91
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: are walking around thinking, you know what, I played by

92
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 1: the rules, I do everything I'm supposed to do, and

93
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: I just can't get ahead. The system is rigged against me,

94
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: that people above me are getting all the breaks, that

95
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: people below me are getting all the hand downs. Who's

96
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: looking out for me? And I think Democrats need to

97
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: make the case number one, why they are, why Hillary

98
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: Clinton is and number two begin to make the case

99
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump has never looked out for anybody in

100
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 1: his life except for himself. Marc Rubio danced around this

101
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: a little bit during the last debate when he went

102
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: started going after Trump on Trump, Trump you and things

103
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: like that, but it didn't stick. And I think that's

104
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: that's where the grace is going to go in definding

105
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: who Donald Trump really is. What happens and we've only

106
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: got a bit of minute left when he starts to

107
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: define her, how does she respond when he brings up

108
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: her husband's sex scandal, when he brings up her Goldmen

109
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: Sack speeches and that sort of thing. How does she

110
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: respond to that? You know, it'll be interesting to see

111
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: on the on the first point, you know, I man,

112
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: I think that just rallies people behind her. I don't think, um,

113
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to get a lot of traction

114
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: on that. But when it comes to things like the

115
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: Goldman Sax speeches, I think, you know, a level of

116
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: transparency and I think again drawing a contract, the quick

117
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 1: is going to go out there and make a case

118
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: that her record, her history has been one of champion

119
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: of as being a champion for those who need a champion, um,

120
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: whereas Donald Trump has been a champion for himself, oftentimes

121
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: at the expense of those others. That's where I think

122
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 1: she's got to go and continue to make that contrast.

123
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: That may be the only way to meet this guy. Well,

124
