On sand. the reason is he never brought in the opposition. he never brought in the country. he wins the election when hes on the ticket and gets crushed on the elections when hes not because, as he said himself, im not on the ballots by my policies are. he completely overshot the mandate. the mandate in 08 was to reassure a very nervous, apprehensive country and to govern sort of in a moderate wa way. he understood it as a mandate for his sort of social democratic -- he was bernie sanders before...

Thinly veiled social darwinism. will you except the support of clan organizers before you are president, the support after your president? >> sean: mr. bring us all together, clan synthesizers. while running for president in 07 and 08, he blamed president bush for all of the problems. once he got into office, he did the same thing for eight straight years. here are just a few examples. >> we are inheriting so many challenges, we knew this was going to take time. because we got this big, messy, t...

States frankly spend less on education today than they did in 20 208 08, they are being left find. if you take finland and massachusetts you see tremendous results. but if you actually look at places like detroit thats been divested from, if you look at places like places in alabama, divested om, you see those scores. and so what we actually say is we did this seismic shift with senator alexander last year, senator murray, president obama signed the bill, of actually going back to something that...

Of things but they are all built on sand. the reason is he never brought in the opposition. he never brought in the country. he wins the election when hes on the ticket and gets crushed on the elections when hes not because, as he said himself, im not on the ballots by my policies are. he completely overshot the mandate. the mandate in 08 was to reassure a very nervous, apprehensive country and to govern sort of in a moderate wa way. he understood it as a mandate for his sort of social democrati...

Saying, no, this is what were going to do, not only that it was absent from the campaign. if you go back to 08, you can say obamacare you dont like it, you dont like the principles, but it was intensely litigated. you had a good sense of what the contours were going to be. i have no idea. >> the problem always has been not that there arent any republican plans, there have been many, paul ryan himself when he wasnt in leadership released one, tom price had one, theres a number of different plans ...

After seven years of obamacare, more than 60 attempts to repeal it, thousands of campaign run against it across the country, that is the cutting edge of the republican alternative right now -- four bullet points. so what are the millions of people whove gained coverage thanks to the affordable care act supposed to do while they watch this unfold? joining me now, former director of communications of outreach for hillary clinton jess macintosh and the author of "overcoming obamacare, three approac...

And you always knew when the president had just come from the pdb. george w. bush started his day that way. you always knew if it was something that had sort of shaken him. one thing that strikes me about what weve learned, we learned that trump runs one play. he used it to demolish to dust 16 opponents in the republican primary. he used it to defeat hillary clinton. hes using it actively to defeat the press. it is not going to work against the intelligence community. they are exactly what joe b...
