Lewandowski who said you dont get your base out with just good news, you seem to anger them somehow. i think this was miscalculation on their part. the reason trump won in 2016 was not just his base was energized but rather democrats were disaffected. i dont think theyre going to be disaffected this time and certainly not after listening to that audio. >> i think i just gave unwittingly the democrats their campaign ad. because i guarantee you you will see those pictures like that of house member...

Senate republican candidates today who tested in a lot of these red tastes where democrats are vulnerable, they are sticking with the president because they look at the republican electorate. they see support for the president and his immigration policies, and theyre not doing what house republicans are doing. theyre not contesting the president on this. yes, senate republicans are. but the ones on the ballot in these targeted states are not. and thats a very interesting split youre seeing that ...
