The hoping that there is an appetite for what hes been doing that is not evident based on polling or what people are saying or what yard signs or bumper stickers are out there just as it is not evident in 2060 this will be the third time. will the republicans lose seats? yes they will. it will be shocking if they do not but they will lose seats. will they lose 31? i dont believe so. will they lose even 25? i dont believe so. the voters will decide. every district is different. the level of resen...

Through. if you get caught going for the presidential before midterms are done, you look like a heel. and thats so far-fetched. >> there is sort of an unwritten rule even in the work that we do, where people are allowed to say to you, im definitely not running. then they are allowed to say six months later, i have changed my mind. because it does this dress make my butt look big? >> martha: [laughs] all right, moving right along. there is a new quinnipiac poll that you say is a very interesting ...

Peop people. then they hired george washington. this wasnt done with previous hurricanes because other jurisdictions know how many other people killed. 50 times last original number. no way twries president. he blamed democrats for the death toll. let me just specific a little bit and let you answer directly the presidents tweet. but the term excess deaths. 2975 excess deaths. what does that term mean exactly >> what that really means is that compared to a normal year when there was no hurricane...

Done? the study was done because the government of puerto rico commissioned it to find out the real death toll? >> so many in puerto rico were reporting their loved ones had died as a result of the storm. thats curious and troubling. i dont know why these studies were done, and just for the methodology, these researchers talked to doctors, and hospital doctors, and forensic pathology and did not count people that died of old age, that was not counted, president trump, saying you cant count every...

Methodolo methodology. interviewing the researchers at george washington about the methodology and they said there was no bias in how they did this study. they did not take any pressure from democrats or any other interested party in devising that number. it is of course an estimate of the number of deaths attributed to the hurricane. but it is an extraordinary number. 2,975. much greater than the death toll of 16 which is what the president was told when he made his one visit to puerto rico two...

Deadly storm he dismisses the puerto rico death toll and takes an undeserved victory lap around an island still suffering. taking issue with the methodology of the study is one thing but dismissing those numbers as an attempt to victimize him, thats another. on twitter this weekend, the governor of puerto rico pleaded with president trump offering to walk him through the scientific process that led to the updated death toll. theres no reason to underscore the tragedy weve suffered in the afterma...

Insisting he only lost the popular vote because three to five million people voted illegally and on and on and now in the middle of another deadly storm he blithely dismisses the puerto rico death toll and takes a victory lap around an island that is still suffering. taking issue with the methodology of the study that approximated 3,000 deaths is one thing but dismissing the numbers as part of an attempt to victimize him is another. the governor of puerto rico pleaded with president trump offeri...

From maria, quoting the "washington post" there. this was long after the hurricane took place. over many months it went to 64 people. then, like magic, 3,000 people killed. they hired g.w. lerch to tell them how many -- research to tell them how many people died. how would they not know this? method was never done with previous hurricanes because other jurisdictions know how many people were killed. 50 times the last original number? no way. just last week, president trump was describing the pue...

Response to puerto rico but that was last year. he might have compounded that with saying it was a job and all of that but im just wondering, shouldnt we be focusing on the here and now and this and we can tara part and get into the details of what happened with puerto rico later. well and actually i wrote about that yesterday. my contention is this. the president doesnt serve himself well when hes focused on something that happened a year ago and the methodology of how you count deaths. what he...

Ago found a total of 2,975 people perished within a period of six month and to hurricane-related causes. the white house is arguing the methodology used to track the puerto rico death toll skews the numbers high. however, condemnation over the president street has been swift and bipartisan. >> this claim is beyond ridiculous and its an insult to the brave men and women who, every day, provide medical care and other first responder aid to people in distressed situations. >> casualties dont make i...
