People chanting about an american citizen send her home? >> sometimes love says no. the presidents talk tonight was more than discouraging. the presidents talk tonight was dangerous. its very important for americans to see that talk and for all patriotic americans whether on the left or right to be clear we dont do that in america. our political opponents are not our enemies. you didnt hear talk like that from ronald reagan or george w. bush or george bush senior when talking about democrats. th...

See that can knock donald trump out, i use that as a metaphor is going to be the winner and that is going to drive everything. people go i like this, i like this, the fear of donald trump, the fear of four more years of donald trump, if im tim ryan, if im castro, elizabeth warren, anybody, convince me that i can get rid of that ogar. >> there were so many instances in 2016 in the republican debates where one republican after another failed to stand up to donald trump. one of the most discouragin...
