Helped make him the president. thats a critique of us, of your and my shared profession. what can the media do differently? >> fortunately i think youve already seen a push back against what weve done before. we talk in the book about how the media gave trump especially at the beginning of the campaign all of this unmediated access that no other ways other candidates got. in some ways the people that should be mad about that is the other republicans because they got shut out. paradoxically, beca...

Anthem when he didnt vote in the national election and praises fidel castro and then refers to police by pigs by wearing clothes that show that m. >> first of all, black people were wearing the uniform of the united states of america, returned home from world war ii as veterans and were murdered by bigots who denied legitimacy. let me finish, sir. >> i am agreeing with you. >> let finish. those people who committed those acts were unamerican and didnt understand complicated nature of black peopl...

Black members of our society are far more likely to be put in prison for what white members are able to skate by on, but its also morphed into a discussion that we have a person in charge of our society that does not understand what it means to wield the american empire, and has shown no willingness to work with communities of color, with minorities, with immigrants, with anyone who is not white, and that is again, against the heart of what america stands for, america is a country of immigrants,...

>> and in reading it you say that there are flaws with obamacare. there is room for improvement. so what is the solution? >> one of the things john referenced is the fact that there was a bipartisan process between senators alexander and ma murray to try to deal with some of the health exchanges are having right now that are leading to tremendous increases in premiums. a lot has to do with administration threatening to with hold subsidies to which they would be entitled so they have addressing t...

Personally, multiple times. i appreciate the work he was doing. and i think what hes doing is clearing the deck saying, look it, we have until september 30th on this part san approach our leadership wants to go, when that fails, i dont think a senator like senator alexander, senator murray, are going to just allow people to suffer. and thats my hope is the outcome of this ultimately will come down. we can focus on the people back home rather than the politics that have gotten us into this partis...

Into this partisan divide we see today. >> can you explain to me why you seem so -- i feel like you have information i dont have. youre an actual republican member of congress. this is obviously this is your work and this is very important. its important to you and constituents. you seem far more confident this will fail in the senate than the people ive been talking to. why do you have that confidence? >> ive been in congress since 2010 and seen this partisan path before just blow up. and it do...

The california senate planned a single payer plan. as lindsey graham said right now we have a choice. the choice is american federalism or socialism and to me thats like choosing between ice cream and manure. its an easy one. >> or you had, ana, the bipartisan effort from lamar alexander and patty murray to fix the existing system. >> look, i think this is going to end up being a bipartisan effort, if not now, later. weve already tried this as a, you know, one party solution. from the republican...

Also democrats, keep trying to fix this bill, to fix health care. we have got to accept as americans that the current system has got tremendous problems, tremendous flaws and cannot sustain itself the way it is. so it needs to be replaced. it needs to be fixed. is this the perfect fix? probably not. and i think its very hard for a lot of republicans to support it because of different reasons about including the preexisting conditions which is huge for so many people. the idea that states can exe...
