income inequality which is at historic highs, whether it s the number of people without health insurance which is rising after falling during the obama administration. consumer debt levels are now at pre-recession levels. wages have been stagnant. this is part of the challenge, as heather just said, yes, if you look at all the metrics the economy does seem to be doing well. but for far too many people in this country, they re not getting ahead. labor force participation has basically not budged. only 63% of working age people are in the labor force right now. anna, when you look at the people who chris is talking about on the sidelines, when you look at people who work in the gig economy, when you look at people in the midwest who we re told, by the way, by donald trump, don t sell your homes because it s all going to be good, manufacturing is coming back, when you look at people in western pennsylvania and kentucky and west virginia who were told their coal jobs are coming back, ver
and what you would think is that, oh, my gosh, let s look at this debate. isn t it amazing we have these great candidates and all of them can decisively beat donald trump. but that s not where we re at. every one of these candidates you just showed in the poll is losing in a head to head. that s fairly remarkable and fairly discouraging. somebody should be beating donald trump, and currently as i m looking at the numbers here, nobody is beating donald trump. and i do think it has to do with what david jolly was just talking about, how do you beat how do you beat the president in an economy that s fairly robust. sure, are some people hurting, not doing well as you said, joy? absolutely. the other thing i see in this debate today was sort of this argument between the past and the future. donald trump is decidedly the past. everything he talks about is the past. the way he speaks about women is the past. the way he speaks about minorities is the past. his jobs are all about the past. co
argument between the past and the future. donald trump is decidedly the past. everything he talks about is the past. the way he speaks about women is the past. the way he speaks about minorities is the past. his jobs are all about the past. coal jobs are all about the past. the person who is talking most about the future was actually andrew was andrew yang. and i saw this division i think bernie sanders was really fading in this campaign. he has a lot of old ideas. and elizabeth warren has a lot of old ideas. she says, i have a plan, but we used to call that central planning. that s something that went out with the bolshevicz. andrew yang keeps talking about the future. i thought klobuchar did a brilliant job taking apart buttigieg. i thought buttigieg did a brilliant job pointing out the hypocrisy of elizabeth warren. so overall, i d have to give it to klobuchar and yang as sort of the new generation, and that
imagine how secure united stated they would all be. ed: truth accidentally revealed. no, we have been doing this basically his entire presidency. the ukraine phone was cass a couple months ago if you have been doing this for a a couple years, that s odd. truth revealed on the campaign trail. remember what al green said about. we can. the democrat has said this since day one. weave can t beat the president at the ballot box so basically we will have to impeach him. what are the democrats doing out on the trail. look at michael bloomberg. maybe is he repeating one of the same mistakes in 2016 when she said i m going to kill all those coal jobs. watch. how to fight donald trump. we beat him a number of times. we took on donald trump after he said he would pull us out of the climate paris agreement. as president, i will accelerate america s transition to an all carbon economy. we have as a goal 2050. we have to work as soon as as we clean a clean energy
traditional jobs, kimberly s point you aren t going to replace them. the big solar projects under president obama in california and elsewhere. i would read 2 or 3 billion being sunk into the projects that would have permanent jobs, 10, 15, mind bugling stuff. so if you want to put mirrors over the entire country and see if that can do the work of fossil fuels you won t have a lot of people manning them at the end of the day. it is a real tough one. again we get back to the voters saying do i really want to give this up? it s a major part of our economy. we re now finally energy independent. we produce more oil than any nation in the world. is now the time to get rid of it? natural gas, the abundance of natural gas we have makes us a supplier around the world. so the idea of getting rid of this right now just as we re peaking is nuts. heather: it didn t work for hillary clinton when she talked about doing away with coal jobs. that s in west virginia. heather: she admits it was a
