House democratic leader nancy pelosi. And the chair of the dnc, tom perez. Here now, chief anchor george stephanopoulos. Good morning, can you believe its been just 38 days . 38 days packed with the shock of the new. A shock thats energized trump supporters, terrified his critics, mystified many around the world. As we come on the air this week, what have we learn sod far about President Trump . Number one, hes not going to change. Donald trump intends to be president the way he became president. With tweets. Tough talk so often at odds with the facts. And direct attacks on the press he calls the opposition. I want you all to know that were fighting the fake news. Its fake. Tony. Fake. [ cheers and applause ] a few days ago, i called the fake news the enemy of the people. And they are. They are the enemy of the people. Number two, he meant what he said about cracking down on illegal immigration. The deportation directives from Homeland Security this week drove that point home. White house officials promise that his new executive order suspending travel from majority muslim countries will be as tough as the original ban blocked by the courts. All that is aimed at securing his most loyal followers. This weeks directive reversing president obamas policy on how schools should handle transgender youth. That levers two big Unanswered Questions as the president prepares to address congress for the first time in two days. Can he make good on the promises that require a partner in congress . Gop members got an earful on that across the country this week. Resist, persist. And what happens next with the president and russia . The white house hit by late this week for enlisting the fbi and intelligence officials to counter damaging stories and appears to interfere with investigations. As a Veterans Group prepares to release this ad. President trump, the fbi and cia say that russia interveered. So, sir, were putting you on notice. Were demanding speaker ryan and senator mcconnell appoint an independent commission to get the answers. Because defending america means finding the truth. Lets get answers from the white house. Sarah Huckabee Sanders joins us now. Thank you for joining us. Thanks for having me. Good morning, george. We heard from a key republican member of congress this week, darrell issa who says Jeff Sessions must recuse himself. You cannot have somebody, a friend of mine, Jeff Sessions who was on the the campaign, and who is an appoint tooe. Youre going to need to use the special office to take not just to recuse, thats you cant just give to it your deputy. Thats another political appointerk e. What is your response . I think the real easy answer here is that the fbi has already said this store i have b. S. Those are their words. Aapologize to my mom. Literally, those are the words of the fbi. That the story was b. S. They came to us. They approached us. Were putting that story out there. I think the American People deserve to know the truth. That theres nothing here. Just because reporters Say Something over and over and over again doesnt start to makt true. At some point, we get to a place where we have to move on and focus on the things that the American People care about. I dont think this is it. Asked and answered. Lets move forward. Lets Start Talking about the economy. Lets talk about education. Lets talk about border security. Lets talk about national security. Thats whats keeping most americans up at night. Thats what they want us focused on. Thats what this administration is doing day in and day out. First of all, the fbi has made officially no comment. James comey has no comment. Youre saying the fbi told you it was b. S. The fbi hasnt said that at all. I was asking a different question. The fbi investigation is continuing. The Intelligence Committees are continuing their investigations right now. The question at hand is, sit appropriate for the attorney general to oversee that investigation . Here are the Justice Department guidelines. No doj employee may participate in a criminal investigation or prosecution if he has a personal or political relationship with any person or organization substantially involved in the conduct that is the subject of the investigation. How can it be appropriate for a key member of the Trump Campaign to oversee an investigation of the Trump Campaign . George, were confident that whatever review Congress Wants to do, i think that is the first there with two committees currently doing that. Were confident that theyre all going to come to the same conclusion. That we had no involvement many this. If democrats want to continue to relive their loss every day by doing investigations or review after review, thats fine by us. We know why we won the race. We had the better candidate with the better message. They didnt campaign in the right places. They didnt have the right candidate. That wasnt a democrat. That was a republican member of congress. Ill take your answer to say you dont believe that the attorney general needs to recuse right now. On the investigations. I dont think were there yet. Let me finish the question right there. Yes, sir. You heard republican members of congress saying this week that President Trump should release his tax returns. If Congress Requests the tax returns as part of the investigation, will thats a question you would have to ask the president. What i do know is that, again, we have answered this question. I guess i dont know how many times you have to answer the same question. And people start to expect a different answer. Again, i wasnt saying that he shouldnt recuse himself or that he should. My point is i dont think were there yet. Lets work through the process. You want to jump to the end of the line. Thats not how this works. Typically, you go through a congressional review. Lets let this play out the way it should. Again, i go back to, if you want to continue to relive this loss, then lets do that. But, at the same time, while the democrats and even maybe some of the republicans as you mentioned, want to talk about that, what were focused on in this administration is what we campaigned on. And achooeing those goals. And making sure that america is moving forward. Again, i was asking about the fbi and the Justice Department investigation. The union. One of the big questions. I guess its not a state of the union. The address to congress on tuesday will be what to do with obamacare. And what the president will say should be done. During the campaign, he said everyone has to be covered. January 15th, he told the Washington Post were going to have insurance for everybody. Theres a brandnew analysis out just today about the republican plans about to be presented. They were presented to the governors yesterday. It says millions may lose coverage in obamacare repeal. Governors told. Policies supported by republican congressional leaders to replace obamacare could lead millions of people to lose their health care coverage. According to a presentation on saturday. It estimates the number of people covered by obamacare could be slashed by as much as 51 in states that chose not to expand medicaid coverage. So can the president that no one who has coverage right now will lose it under his plan . Look, what i know that the president can promise is what hes been saying. That this is not just a repeal program that we absolutely have to repeal it. But replace it with something thats better. George, even democrats will admit that owe what kair is simply not sustainable. Its collapsing under itself. It cannot maintain the track were on. We have to make big changes. I think republicans and democrats agree with that. This was a program that was shoved through with so many problems. Were still every day finding out new problems to the program. We know we cant just repeal it and not do anything else. We have to repeal it and replace it with something better. Thats what i want to ask you about. You say replace it with something better. So does that mean that no one ho has coverage now with lose it . I know that the goal is that we make sure that people dont lose their coverage. We have to on people that need it most. We have to lower the costs. We have to make sure the people that need it the most are covered. We cannot survive under the current system. We have to make a massive overall. It is not sustainable. Everybody agrees with that. There is nobody that argues that were on track that we can maintain. Were looking at every possible way to do exactly that. Repeal a treshl, failed system and replace wit something better. Again, so ill have to ask one more time. You say replace it with something better. So will the president guarantee he wont sign a plan that will cause people that have coverage now not to lose it . Hes made it a high priority. We want to make sure that people that have insurance continue to visit. He promised he wont touch medicare, Social Security, or medicaid. Can he stand by that . The president is committed to doing that. So far, as you have noticed over the last 30 days, hes done exactly what he said he is going to do. I dont see any reason to start thinking differently. I want to bring up another topic right now. Just yesterday, the miami herald the father of the navy s. E. A. L. Killed in yemen has spoken out about the raid. He did not want to meet with President Trump. He said, dont hide behind my sons death to prevent an investigation. I want an invegs gags. The government owes my son an investigation. Will he get it . I cant speak to the military. But i can say that as a parent, i cant imagine the loss that he has sufficieered. I think every american owes his son a great deal of gratitude. He paid the ultimate sacrifice when he went on that mission. And i know that the mission has a lot of different critics. Amount of very important intel and resources that helped save american lives and other lives. And, as much as again, i cant imagine what this father is going through, i think hes a his son is a true american hero. We should forever been in his sons debt. Does the president want an investigation . I havent had the chance to speak with him directly about that. But i would imagine that he would be supportive of that. Final question, we heard yesterday in the president s tweet, hes not going to the white house correspondents dinner. Why . George, think its safe to say i think we all spend enough time around each other as it is. This wasnt a president that was e leblgted to spend his time with reporters and celebrities. This is a president who campaigned on speaking directly to americans. And thats what hes going to spend his time doing. I think its kind of naive of us to think we can all walk into a room for calm of hours and tension isnt there. You know, one of the things we say in the house is a girl scout egged your house, would you buy cookies from her . I think this is a similar scenario. Theres no reason for him to dp in and sit and pretend like this is going to be just another saturday night. Think hes very focused on protecting our Borders National security, growing our economy. Instead of spending a night doing that, hell spend the night focused on what he can do to defend america. Pretty straight answer. I think a lot would say the eggs have gone both ways. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, thank you very much. Nancy pelosi, thank you for joining us today. You heard Sarah Sanders talk about the committee looking into the russia ties with the Trump Campaign. Also, pretty much saying there will not be a recusal from now for if attorney general. Your response . As you read the law and saw the law, the attorney general must recuse himself. Step. You have seen a flurry of activities that are completely inappropriate, encouraging lawmakers, encouraging foishls Say Something is one way or another. Lets have the investigation and find out the truth. And we have been called, we have 100 now plus one republican on erics bill for an outside, independent commission to study the personal, political, and financial relationship between President Trump and the russians. So far, the efforts have been quashed by the Republican Leadership in the house. Youre getting pressure from democrats to go farther. Michael moore put out a 2w50e9 this week, tell your senator and house members now, you want them to cease all business until they appoint a special committee on trump tapped rush xwrans he gave the phone number there as well. Are you ready to go that far . Let me just say, there is no business. Lets put this in time. You did at the beginning show. In a couple of days, it will be 40 days, 40 hours, 40 years in the desert. 40 is fraught with meaning and symbolism. When president obama was sworn in on the steps of capital, he asked for swift, bold action now for jobs and education for the 251st century. One week and one day from that swearing in, the house passed the american recovery and reinvestment act. One week later, the Senate Passed it. Four weeks from his inauguration, he signed a bill which saved or created 4 million jobs. He had already signed, Lily Leadbetter signed it. Schip, the Childrens Health insurance program. By the time he had his first address to the join session, the first speech, he could say this is what i asked for. This is what we have done in the first four weeks. What has the Trump Administration done from their inaugural address, where they talked about decay and wall street first. Make america sick again. And instill fear in our immigrant population in our country. And make sure russia maintains itself grip, its grip on our foreign policy. You saw Sarah Sanders say, talk about obamacare on tuesday. Would not say it will guarantee. It cant guarantee. N the republicans have been baying at the moon for seven years that they have a better idea. Theyve come up with nothing. They say repeal and replace. That has alliteration. Thats all it has going for it. They dont have a replacement. What they have put forth and outlined will cost more to consumers. Lit cover fewer people. It will give tax breaks to the wealthiest people. The president wants to do, the 400 wealthiest families in america will get a 7 million a year. But if they do follow through and repeal obamacare. They wont be able to do it. They cant . They have alliteration. Not votes. If they do, wont democrats have a duty to go in and help repair it so the people that will lose coverage, according to your analysis, dont lose it . If everyone loved their care, if everyone loved it, which they didnt, and their insurance policy, we would still have had to do it because the escalating costs of health care in our country were unsustainable to individuals, families, small business, corporate america, and to the public sector. The costs were just soaring. We do the care. And had three goals. One, two lower costs. Other two expand benefits. And the third to improve, increase access. Have health care who didnt have it before. This is the important part. 155 Million People who get their Health Insurance through their workplace have now had expanded benefits. Stop the rate of increase of costs. But, no longer will you have preexisting condition prevent you from getting care. I understand that. No, i understand that. Dont you have an obligation to protect those who will lose coverage . St you have to have the full package. If they come up with something that lowers the costs, expands the koechblg, increases benefit, then well have something to talk about. We havent seen anything to talk to them about. When he makes his arouddress one 40 things that hes done many the 40 days, all fear of the greed on wall street. What kind of reception is the president going to get on tuesday . Some democrats are thinking of bringing guests they believe have been impacted by the president s policies. Well, that would be a normal thing to do. I, myself, would bring a guest who is a dreerm. A guest who has lost her son through gun violence. Ill bring a guest who is a symbol of the freedom of the press, which the president , in his authoritarian manner, is attacking. And i think thats really our biggest guardian of democracy is the First Amendment. The freedom of the press. Are there any issues where you feel you can still work with the president . Back in november, you talked about infrastructure. We dont know if hell propose a plan on tuesday. Is that something the democrats can get behind . Lets talk about that. I call him the deflector in chief. He has no jobs bill. I talked about president obama in the first four weeks,4 million jobs. So hes got to talk about the press. He has no jobs bill. So he has to talk about kids transgender kids in school. He has no jobs bill, so he has to talk about immigrants and have a ban on muslims coming to to country. All of this is a deflection from the fact that he has done nothing. We havent seen a jobs bill. We havent seen do you have an open mind on it . If he has, as i have said to him and said publicly, if he has an instfrainfrastructure bill t helps to address the deficit we have in our country, lets talk about. But if it is yet again, another tax break for his rich friends, disguised as an infrastructure bill, were not going there. Nancy pelosi, thank you for joining us this morning. My pleasure. Lets turn to congressman jim jordan. One of many people that faced tough questions this week. Hang on, hang on. I want to answer the question. Hang on. Hang on. [ crowd chanting ] all give us more insurance. Thank you for coming in. Good cleanup crew today first on the issue on investigation. Is recusal necessary . Lets let the process work. Some have skauled for a select committee. Some a special prosecutor. Lets let the committees work. Im on the oversight committee. Im not shy on going into the issues. No one has accused me of going easy on my own party. Well do that. I think when we had the irs scandal a few years ago, they were targeting conservative groups, after awhile, i called for a special prosecutor. We let the process work. When i did, i sponsored the legislation that went through the unfortunately, it fortunately, passed the house. But harry reid stopped it in the senate. We did that because we found that barbara bosserman, at the Justice Department, the lead investigator on that case was a maxout contributor to president obam obamas campaign. We thought that was a conflict. So if thats a conflict, isnt the attorney general sessions a conflict. Lets see how this plays out. What im saying is let i play out attorney general sessions was right in the middle of the Trump Campaign. What i didnt see when we were doing this, is you and the press call for a special prosecutor when the irs was targeting people for exercising the First Amendment free speech rights. Lets see how it plays out. A deliberative process is appropriate. Were going to see how o obamacare plays out. She says, you cant repeal it. We have to repeal it. We told the voters we would. We have to repeal it and replace it. Remember what the American People were sold. They were sold a bill of good thons thing. I tell people, they were sold a caribbean cruise and they got the titanic. This thing is a mess. You dont take my word for it. Remember jonathan gruber. The architect of obamacare. He was on video tape telling us that they misled the American People pip talk about the nine false statements. Like your plan, keep your plan. Like your doctor, keep your doctor. Premiums will go down. The website would work. It was secure. We were told emergency room visits would redine. The coops, 18 of them have gone bankrupt. What about the analysis that says, if you repeal it now, millions lose coverage . Think how bad sit right now. We have premiums, higher deductibles. Think about what the American People, of course, there were three elections. Talk about these protests. How about the protests in 2010 on election day, 2014 on election day. Just this past novemberth. The American People said, get rid of this law. One of the key people warning against that is jour oyour own governor. Some will say get rid of the whole thing. Thats not acceptable when you have 20 Million People, or 700,000 people in my state. Where do the mentally ill go . Where do the drugaddicted go . Sounds like hes touking to you. Where do they go . We didnt say well repeal it except we said, we were going to repeal it and replace it with a marketcentered, patientcentered plan that insurance. Obama care said, were going to have man dates. Regulations. Were going to make people buy it. If they dont, theyll get penalized. We have said, lets get rid of that. Put on President Trumps desk, the exact same plan we put on president obamas desk a year and a half ago. And youre confident you have the votes for that . We better have the votes for that. Thats what we told the people im confident President Trump has that. Thats what he campaigned on. What i campaigned on. Right now, one plan put forward. One by dr. Paul in the senate. And one sponsored by the House Freedom caucus in the house. We say, repeal it just like we have done. Just like we did with president obama. Put the same bill on President Trumps desk. It empowers people, families, doctors, not washington, d. C. You heard Sarah Sanders say the president doesnt want to touch Social Security, medicare, medicaid. Can you do that without increasing the department . You have to pay for those things. Youll not vote for a budget that increases the debt . We have a 20 trillion debt, george. Do we want to keep saddling our grandkids, our kids. The debt to gdp ratio is 1 to 1. Its a dangerous place to be. We make this job way too complicated. Thank you, congressman. Well be back with tthe roundtabl roundtable. And later, the new chairman of the dnc joins us live. Mthat stuff only lasts a few hours. Or, take mucinex. One pill fights congestion for 12 hours. Guess i wont be seeing you for a while. Why take medicines that only last 4 hours, when just one mucinex lasts 12 hours . Lets end this. Cmohappy birthday i survived a heart attack. Im doing all i can to keep from having another one. And im taking brilinta. For people whove been hospitalized for a heart attack. I take brilinta with a baby aspirin. No more than one hundred milligrams as it affects how well it works. Brilinta helps keep my platelets from sticking together and forming a clot. Brilinta reduced the chance of another heart attack. Or dying from one. It worked better than plavix. Without talking to your doctor since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. Brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. Dont take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. Tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. Talk to your doctor about brilinta. Im doing all i can. That includes brilinta. If you cant afford your medication, astra zeneca may be able to help. Cough doesnt sound so good. Take mucinex dm. Ill text you in 4 hours when your cough returns. One pill lasts 12 hours, so. Looks like im good all night some cough medicines only last 4 hours. But just one mucinex lasts 12 hours. Lets end this. Whats the biggest misconception about on in the Donald Trump White House . Uh, well, in regard to us two, i think the biggest misconception is everything that youre reading. We we share an office suite together. Were basically together from 6 30 in the morning until about 11 00 at night. I have a little thing called the war room. He has a fire lace. Nice sofas.

The Core Movement is that we are a nation that put and will put its own citizens first. [ cheers and applause ] President Trump at cpac on friday. Were joined now on the roundtable by matt schlapp, chairman of the american conservative union. Democratic that gist stephanie cutter. David remnick. Amy holmes. And former clinton labor secretary and uc berkeley professor, robert reich. You have a major report out called active measures. How the russian interference into the campaign fits into what they want to do in europe and what putt putin wants to do acr the west. I was surprised speak about it. This is a piece where i collaborated with evan in washington and josh in moscow. Theres a big history of active measures on both sides. Americans have interfered in regimes and regime change. Elections. This has been back and forth. This is nothing absolutely new. But the extent of this potentially is extraordinary. We have 17 intelligence agencies all saying, asserting, that there was serious interference in our president ial election. The administration, you heard it again, doubles and tripling down on the idea there were no inappropriate contacts. Heres the problem. The problem is intelligence agencies are not giving us the evidence of this. And here they have a point. They say, the intelligence agencies say the difficulty of giving evidence is you give away your human sources or your technological means. People have memories on t when the intelligence agencies went very bad and did great disservice to the country in cooperating with the bush administration. What we need is a real investigation. I think people on both sides of the aisle, by the way, senator mccain, senator burr, republicans, have said its necessary to investigate this . A serious way. Otherwise we go through the cloud, this sort of dissonance of an election that has been spoiled. And might not be the decisive factor. The only factor by my means. Its deeply important. Youre seeing divides on the republican side right now. Yeah, absolutely. Lets go back to the fundamental issues. Congresss job is to do oversight. They should do it aggressively. When it comes to national security, the Intelligence Committees are the right place to start. They should be aggressive and go with the facts take them. As far as the department of justice. Its ironic. When you have Jeff Sessions waiting for appointments to get picked and literally the News Coverage is, well he couldnt recuse himself to his deputy because that person is a political when they person is not a political. Theyre a career. So far hes saying hes not going the recuse himself. Why would we staff a special counsel when we havent staffed the counsels office . What is your thought . It seems to me from listening is the white house is trying to kick the can down the road. Lets let this process run out. Fine, lets let it run out. We know where its going to end. They have already tainted the process by trying to get the chair of the select Intelligence Committee to speak to members of the media on their behalf. Theyve reached out to intelligence and Law Enforcement tishls. Theyre trying to influence the process. Therefore, it needs to be independent. We have been down this road before. We know how it ends. Have an independent process. Any chance the white house breaks on this . Not as of yet. I dont anticipate that. I think its important to say that Loretta Lynch did yot recuse herself. Marco rubio put out a tweet saying hes very confident there can be a thorough, robust investigation. Chairman mccain might want to look at it. Staffers are discussing their access to classified information. I would disaguy with you. We dont know where this is going to end. I agree. Thats why we need to investigati investiga investigate. There is nothing more important to the our democracy as voting trust. No danger for the democrats in pushing this too far . There is not a danger right now. When youre seeing cracks in the Republican Party. When darrell issa says, yes, we need a special prosecutor. When john mccain starts to say, look, we have to get to the bottom of this. If the public does not trust that it will be overseen correctly, we have no choice. I dont get this whole thing. The department of justice oversaw one of the most politically sensitive issues with the clinton foundation. There was no special counsel. The voters got decide. This is for the congress to handle through the intelligence community. We have a brandnew administration. There is one person over the department of justice. Lets get a few more people populated. If theres something done an appropriately, then you go to we start with hold on a second. Wait a second. The fbi investigation exists right now. And it should. Its an actual investigation. The question is, should the attorney general be overseeing that . One of the other mysteries here that its been difficult for anybody to get to the bottom of, is explaining, with whatever context, what is behind president s trump sort of courtship of Vladimir Putin . I think we have to find out through further investigation. Theres great concern, and you see it in the journalism around it, that theres a number of things. Financial interests that have to be looked into. The question of contacts between people in the campaign and russia russians. Which could lead to some sense of collusion. Not conclusive yet. And you have the white house trying to block trying to get people from the fbi to tamp down stories happening in the press. This is all very serious. The bigger question on the one hand you have the question about the integrity of our democracy. And at the same time, you have our conflict with russia. Its very, very serious. And what are the motivations for putin to interfere in the first place is because he wants to weaken western institutions from nato to the european union. What is at stake here could not be larger. The stakes for independent inquiry. Its essential that they be this is ky jump in . In your recitation just now, you point to one of the problems and the challenges of the investigati investigation. We dont know what the target is . We dont know if its russia. If it is, you cant prosecute russia. It wouldnt be appropriate to have a special prosecutor. Thats why this investigation moving forward to zero in on what were talking about. What about this weakening . Does anybody think donald trump will be a pushover for anyone . Its inevitable hell get at odds. The other choice was Hillary Clinton. The other person was Hillary Clinton, who had the gimmicky red reset button and was trying to be friendly. This is why john mccain is so very important here. If we have hardliners and military experts in the senate who will say no, we have to have an investigation, this gives credibility. As long as this is a partisan issue, its going nowhere. It becomes a completely different issue. We have to take a quick break. Well be right back with if new le elected dnc chair, tom perez.

Theyre going to ask the question of all of us, where were you in 2017 when we had the worst president in the history of the United States . We will all be able to say, the United Democratic party led the resistance, ensured that this president was a oneterm president , and elected democrats across the country. Fierily start there for the after his election yesterday. We joins us live this morning. Thank you for joining us, mr. Chairman. Always a pleasure to be with you. You got a congratulation from the president. Congratulations to thomas perez. Who has just been named chairman of the dnc. I could not be happier for him or the Republican Party. Your response . Our Democratic Unity is Donald Trumps worst nightmare. We not only had a good day here in atlanta, we had a good day in delaware. The real challenge is, can we channel the energy we see across america into positive action . In delaware, there was a race for a state senate seat. The balance of the senate was at stake. We came in there, we had a great candidate. The dnc supported. Our revolution supported. Grass roots activists supported. She state senate. Thats what we have to do as democrats is help elect people in state houses. The presidency. Local government. Everywhere in between. It is a start. Just a start. Absolutely. Yesterday, you had bernie sanders. There was discord at the meeting. Actually some boos after you won. Bernie sanders came out with a warning. He said, its imperative that tom, you, understand that the same old, same old is not working. We must open the doors to the working people and young people in a way that has never been done before. How do you do that . It starts with the partnership that congressman ellison and i have. We have been partnered for a long time. Our values are identical. We want to make sure that everyone has a fair shake. We want to make sure that the woman in detroit i met, she slept in her car the night before with her three children, we want to do we want to make sure that when you work overtime you get paid overtime. These are things that donald trump is fighting against. These are things that were all fighting for as democrats. When we lead with our values, we win. Thats what were going to do. . Youre up against a brutal map, both in state houses and in congressional midterms coming up in 2018. I want to put up a map from the 2016 election. The Election Results by county. The sea of red all across the country. How do you begin to turn that tide of red around when its so predominant in so much of the country . We begin by building strong parties in the 50 states and the territories. We didnt invest enough in our state Party Infrastructure. In grass roots organize nigz. We ignored rural swaths of america. We cant do that. We have to help to elect people from the school bard to the senate. Build the strong infrastruck dhur and strengthen partnerships with people in the labor movement. Planned parenthood. Others involved in the grass roots organizing of inf infrastructure. When we lead with values and are in every zip code, we succeed. We have the right values. The right message. We saw it in delaware. Well see it in atlanta in cobb county. And we have to do that everywhere. A lot of work. Im optimistic. Hillary clinton put out a video just before the final vote calling for unity. Lets listen. The challenges we face as a party and a country are real. So now, more than ever, we need to stay engaged. Let resistance plus persistence equal progress for our party and our country. So Hillary Clinton is staying enga engaged. Are you hoping to see her run agn should run. Im confident well have a robust field of candidates. As we invest in our infrastructures, were going to build strong capacity to elect democrats up and down the ticket. Theres such an electricity out there across america. Not just the traditional activists. People who come up to me and say, tom, i was a casual participant in democracy. I understand that democracy cant be a spectator support. Congressman ellison has been spectacular at tapping into that grass roots advocacy. Were working together to translate this activism into results. When we lead with values, i think we succeed. Chairman perez, thank you for joining us. Pleasure to be with you. Lets bring it back to the roundtable. Bob, i want to begin with you. Theres a lot of energy out there in what theyre calling the resistance. Can it be turned into an enduring and Effective Movement . That is the key disconnect, george, between a rather sclerotic situation. And a huge uprising at the grass roots, mostly against trump. How can tom perez, can he actually utilize that, turn the Democratic Party from a vast fundraising machine into a movement . Hasnt been done before very easily. You remember in the vietnam war days, we had a huge uprising. But the democratic parrot had nothing to do with that. The thing that worries me most of all, if you look at the problems inside the Democratic Party, they have a lot to do with the same sort of populist uprising were seeing across the country, including the donald Trump Campaign. People, for 35 years, have not had a raise. The average american is actually economically in a lot of economic insecure. We have parts of this country that are really, desolate in terms of the economic activity. And so, youve got a lot of anger out there that nobody, neither the democrats nor the republicans, have come up from with a way to respond to. Stephanie can that anger be channeled into something that delivers for these people . Or sit enough right now for democrats and the opposition simply to try to take down trump . I think you can never be wholly successful when youre just against something. You also have to be somewhere something. I think what you heard, im not sure whether to call him secretary or chairman perez. Tom. Saying is that were on the right side of the issues. We have the right values to make this argument. I think youll sea him not just build help build the Party Infrastructure from the bottom up and provide the right tools to be able to do that all over the country. Not just the coast. Not just blue states. Not just battleground states. Democrats stick to their values and arg f not just to prevent trump from doing bad things. What hes doing with the deportation force. What he did with the muslim ban. Democrats will speak up about that. Then what are democrats for . Raising the minimum wage. Increasing manufacturing bases. Providing more opportunities for education. These are all things that we can do to Start Building a stronger economy especially for the people who vont gotten it. David, are there any issues where they can cooperate with donald trump . Or is the price too high, the price that the activists impose too high on the elected officials . Yes, i think there are issues that people can cooperate on. The instra structure is the classic one. As long as there are no details out there. How you pay for it. As long as there are no details. The question is to what degree are people that consider thechlss to be trumps voters going to be disappointed by the and how quickly . How quickly . All this ideological talk about economic nationalism, we have heard at cpac, they put a name to i didnt hear a lot of disappointment in that room. Just so you know. Well, that room is that room. The question is, the country. There are systemic, painful problems of globalization and deindustrialization that cannot be solved with a phone call or a tweet or an angry speech or trying to isolate the press and the First Amendment. Sooner or later, the donald trump show, excuse me. Let me finish. Sooner or later, the donald trump show, a projection of strength and authority, will have to deliver to his voters. And if he doesnt, in very real terms, if he cant soupc eruperd do better i want to agree. I agree with the secr if the Republican Party was looking for its most pristine conservative voice, they probably would have picked somebody other than donald trump. Its the idea that hes willing to take on things and fight and hes willing to address these basic economic issues. Thats what he has to do. We only have about 20 seconds. What are the concrete things he has to deliver on . I think at the end of the day, it is making those wisconsin, pennsylvania, ohio, workingclass people see a real difference in their life. Well track it through their takehome pay and greater economic opportunity. If that doesnt happen, i agree, were in trouble. That has to be the last word. We dont have any time. Its the debate. Economic nationalism versus investing in people, their education, training. We have to go. Well be right back. That is all for us today. Thanks for sharing part of your sunday with us.
