like to be cared about, like to be asked. donald trump s entire political success has been and is the awareness of the lonely millions who felt left out in the cold by the good people who can we all agree might have worked a little harder to keep their faith. that s hardball for now. thanks for being with ugs. stay with us right here on msnbc. good evening, i m donny deutsch and i am thrilled to be here. there are exactly 444 dads until the 2020 presidential election. tonight i have a simple message to all educated affluent trump voters who sold their soul for a buck with the trump alibi of course i don t agree with all the divisive racist stuff but he s good for the economy so he s got my vote. you ve fallen for trump s biggest lie. fun little fact. look at his first 937 days in office. the s&p was up 25%. at the same time in obama s tenure, the index was up 46%. sorry, donald, obama s was much bigger. lots to cover. this is saturday night politics.
pretty good odds too. right now you have to place a bet. your year s salary, who is president come 2020? i m going opposite of you. i think elizabeth warren. i would think to go with biden but i m uncomfortable. i think it is a warren trump match-up. donald trump. sadly and unfortunately. it pains me to say that. i m going with trump, too. reverse jinx. does it work if you announce it? i think there is a rush to count trump out. not necessarily here but as the punditry as a hole, to think he s too weak to squeak through. he did it last time. towed squeak through but he did it. maybe he loses by much more this time. it could be a very narrow margin. may be it is down to one state. wisconsin. he could win again. a few months ago i would have. absolutely trump. i think it is 50/50.
i believe he will end up with the tariffs. he s the guy with the big club. what is the dynamic of the personal relationship? you would know better than anyone. forget policy point of view. do they like each other? not really. but they get along. certainly better than with paul ryan. there is a respect for mcconnell. he understands mcconnell does wield power. and he s delivered some of the biggest victories. the supreme court justices. mcconnell has delivered them. that s interesting. that was coming from the senate. not something from the president. he signed off on it but he understands there s a win there. yes. trump could provide it. it may or may not happen.
this week s ominous storm warnings from the bond markets, china and germany, show a looming recession, maybe even worse. are trump s erratic trade grenades equivalent to what he did to his casinos in the 90s? come to the castle in atlantic city. it s more than a hotel, it s a four-star resort. how about this. it s got action, it s got night life, the whole deal. it s too much. it s too much, isn t it? i like that. you re going to love it. and that was just one of the six bankruptcies. so, jonathan lemire, is the $39 hotel room in vegas a precursor to the $4 trillion in debt, one of the many things along with the trade wars along with all of a sudden china and germany showing signs of softening and a market starting to crater? right. to quote the now president, the
time for our trump moment of the week. this is a man who sums it up. he wants to buy greenland. that s right. trump s green new deal considering buying greenland. i didn t think you could buy chunks of the planet. i know you can buy a tower or a casino and run it into the ground. i don t get it. i want to thank my excellent guests tonight. that does it for us tonight on snp. we ll be back next week at 8:00. have a great week, everybody. woman: (on phone) discover. hi. do you have a travel card? yep. our miles card. earn unlimited 1.5 miles and we ll match it at the end of your first year. nice! i m thinking about a scuba diving trip. woman: ooh! (gasp) or not. you okay? yeah, no, i m good. earn miles. we ll match em at the end of your first year.
