On successor by name? >> hes been reluctant to do this. but hes been facing calls during entire trumps presidency hes refrained and offered some criticism as president trump has gone after him. but ive watched him at senator mccains funeral, and that you speech was against president trump but today he called him a d demi god and i think its a big switch and a sign of how important the midterm elections are to both parties. this is rally your base election.

And its a sign of how important the midterm elections are to both parties. this is a rally your base election. in a weird way, obamas speech may be helpful for trumps quest to get his base out, like every time trump makes a speech at a rally it may be useful to obamas base and getting them to come out this fall. >> ryan, as i pointed out president obama had not a lot to say before the election, but it didnt make much of a difference. its weird watching he predicted all of this as a lot of people...

If that wasnt bad enough, the anonymous op-ed piece in "the new york times" and now you have barack obama getting off the political sidelines and back into the political arena and unusually powerful shots for a former president against the current president. if donald trump thinks hes under fire, its because he is. >> shepard: the goal from barack obama or any democrats is to get democrats out to vote. but you wonder if the site and sound of barack obama wouldnt have the effect of bringing out t...

Things. also a senate race playing out. so florida now, as usual, the most important state midterm. >> i dont see these guys moving to the middle. this is going to be a base election. gillum is going to try to turn out young people, minorities. desantis is going to try to turn out people who love trump the most. trump is going to come down. i would say desantis should bring trump. >> before we go off what happened last night, i want to talk about arizona. thats the old way. you have two of the m...

Dramatically. >> eli, the part of this we may not see meaning the three of us is the rich folks who write checks and provide the financial underpinning to the republican party across the country. they might get wobbly and pull back. >> they might. or they might say we got tax reform. we got conservative justice. thats when mcconnell is going to say. thats what trump will try to say. >> immigration. >> right. i think, you know, there are things for conservatives. its hard to generalize because th...

I think after it comes to pass the democrats take control of the house. that calculus will shift dramatically. >> eli, the part of this we may not see meaning the three of us is the rich folks who write checks and provide the financial underpinning to the republican party across the country. they might get wobbly and pull back. >> they might. or they might say we got tax reform. we got conservative justice. thats when mcconnell is going to say. thats what trump will try to say. >> immigration. >...

With him or apan don -- abandoning him? i think after it comes to pass the democrats take control of the house. that calculus will shift dramatically in the house and senate. >> eli, the part of this we may not see meaning the three of us is the rich folks who write checks and provide the financial underpinning to the republican party in races across the country, they might get wobbly and pull back. >> they might. or they might say we got tax reform. we got conservative justice. thats when mccon...

He said we didnt even come out for the pledge when i was behind brett favre. all of this is a creation of right-wing white nationalists who want to attack african-american players for being ungrateful. thats what the president wants to do, thats the reason hes talking about it and all the rest of the owners are capitulating. and it doesnt effect the game. so its obvious its for political purposes, not for any practical financial reason. >> this is one step above laura ingraham saying its the ame...
