Charlie the warning follows a threats of retaliation for u. S. Sanctions. In reports today, the north has passed the key whilst on on the path to becoming a nuclear power. Believed that the north has created a Nuclear Warhead that can fit inside its missile. Begin with david martin. David if the assessment by the pentagon Defense Intelligence agency, is accurate, north korea has crossed a crucial, but not the final threshold that can threaten the american homeland. President trump warned him jump in kim jongun and the starkest terms possible. Pres. Trump he has been a very threatening beyond a normal statement. And as i said, they will be met fire, fury, and frankly power. A year ago, kim jongun showed off a device he said was small enough to fit on top of a missile. There is enough plutonium and highly enriched uranium to build dozens of Nuclear Weapons. Twice last month it launched missiles high into space which if they had been fired on a lower trajectory could have reached parts of the u. S. But yet, north korea has yet to demonstrate two different technologies. Nosecone that could buffer reme heat and protect the and the Guidance System that can steer it accurately toward its target. Without that, north korea does not have a workable Nuclear Weapon. But intelligence estimates they could have a workable Nuclear Weapon as early as next year, a full two years earlier than forecast previously. Estimates turned out to be wrong we learned the hard way combined with the president s rong words david mentioned the u. S. Bombing of hiroshima, is the president threatening something worse than that . Rhetoricent trumps sounded a lot like a speech that harry gave after the u. S. A bomb strike at hiroshima. Now accept ourot terms, they can expect a reign of terror from the air, the like of which has never been seen on earth. And power as they have not yet seen. Wassked if the president looking toward war, counselor Kellyanne Conway told reporters there was no point in explaining. Kellyanne conway the president s comments are strong and obvious. The standoff has been impaired to the most dangerous cold war standoff it is the most dangerous standoff since the cuban missile crisis. This is something that could hit us and our allies and is under the control of a rogue nation we suspect would use it. The u. S. Was open to negotiations we are trying to convey to the north koreans, we are not your enemy. We are not your threat. The president ignored policy on sensitive north korea information. Satellite imagery of north korean missiles something this response from ambassador nikki haley. Cant talk about anything that is classified and if that is in the newspaper, that is a shame. Joining us is my chronicle of nbc. Is it isonly hope darkest before dawn. They are in bad shape. There have been parties and worse shape in washington, but they are in bad shape around the country. The republicans control 34 governorships, 68 of 99 state legislatures. It is a party that doesnt have a very good or in club now. Ideas matter. A have to develop a better message. Charlie we continue to look at the film good time, we talked to Robert Pattison lonely person. Loneliness has hit and he doesnt know how to process it. The only thing he has is a sibling, and that is it. The rest of his family wants nothing to do with them. He is completely he doesnt want to love his brother for his brother. He just loves him because it is his. Charlie we conclude this evening with a remembrance of Glen Campbell, he died today at the age of 81. We talked to Rolling Stone ofazine and the anchor abc news. He had a clear tenor voice, but all of this emotion behind it. And you could hear the sadness in his voice. Just a it was lot of strings and slick music, but the songs were so good. Charlie the future of the Democratic Party, the movie good time, and the memory of Glen Campbell. All of that when we continue. 200 days into his administration, president Donald TrumpsApproval Ratings are the lowest in history. To administration has yet hit a single policy victory. A recent poll found that 52 of americans think that the Democratic Party just stands against trump. Party leaders about their economic agenda in a plan called a better deal. Chuck schumer outlined the plan that his party had failed to articulate a strong, bold program for the middle class and those working hard to get there. He bowed they would not he vowed they would not repeat the same mistake. Is joining us is albert hunt, Mike Barnicle i am pleased to have them here. Out, what must they do . L they are in bad shape right now. We talk about washington there have been parties and worse shape, but they are in bad shape all around the country. The republicans control ready for governorships, 68 of 99 state legislatures here at it is a party that doesnt have a very good foreign club now. Ideas matter. They have to develop a better message. 2020 is much too early to talk next, lets do it year and they have lots of negative stuff to run up against trump on, but they have been totally outdone by the republicans of the last 10 years. Charlie nero . Neera i dont charlie neera . Neera i dont disagree. The party doesnt have enough it has been blocked out of a lot of state legislatures, particularly in the midwest. 36 governors races in 2018, the entire midwest is up. Important states like florida, and i think the governors races will be a critical test of what nots democrats have justified against trump, but to be an alternative. Charlie do you think there is time and we will now see as the Democratic Party struggles with its identity, program, and a strategy, that we will see a new generation come to bear . And will no longer be the people that have been in the leaders that and the leadership positions like the clintons and others . Neera absolutely. It is early to talk about 2020, but i think there will be a range of people and their 40s and early 50s who are themselves to run and who are running. Most importantly, for the governors races, there will be a new generation of people running for those important seats. The ideas that get meted out on the economy and jobs in the governors races, i think will be more important than the president ial race. I think the healthcare debate was a critical one for democrats. It did positions democrats as fighting for bread and butter issues for american families. People saw health care as what it means for them personally. I think that was an important first fight for democrats as they face the trump administration. Charlie mike, when you look at some of these special elections of which the republicans have won four of them, some think the democrats have run only on an antitrump program . Mike largely, i think that is an accurate assessment. I think a larger problem for the democrats is they basically have to answer questions individually and collectively as a party, who are you . What do you represent. If you look at republicans that and a lot of the governorships, they run against government. Government is your enemy, government has failed you, government has overpromised, government has overspent. A lot of people have but that. And democrats have to get younger. No offense to anyone, but their message has to be more encompassing. It has to be economic, cultural, social, it has to address things like educational reform, what robotics will do to your job, what Artificial Intelligence might do to your childrens jobs, what is going on in your kids schools, can you afford childcare, a whole range of issues. They have to be unafraid of that. Charlie why didnt Hillary Clinton wade into that . Everybody knew income inequality was a big issue. Caution is not a great thing to have when youre running for president basically the third of fourth time, thats she he was thats what was doing. She would have qualified, but a lot of people said uhuh. Charlie you are not the candidate for me, i want Something Different. Mike yes. And unfortunately, trump gave them something they thought was different. A lot of it was antigovernment rhetoric. Neera i would disagree a little bit with that which is to say that i actually think donald trump did well with a lot of people who did vote for obama, the fair amount of electorate in midwest states voted for donald trump because they didnt see him as a traditional politician. He supported Social Security and medicaid. You wanted to protect people against the big reason of the market, at least when it came to trade. He was going to be tougher on trade than republicans have been in the past. I actually think that mike is right that in the special elections we have had, the message of antigovernment that republicans have been beenigning on have important, but there are like 20plus republican districts. I think the issue for democrats is i agree with mike. Issue is, what do stand for. I think the argument that Chuck Schumer and others are trying to put forward is the Democrat Party has to stand with the middle class, with working people, against large corporations that have been 2. 8 term,igging them. G the system against i think we are in the middle of a debate. We believe that jobs are a central element of this. I actually think trump did Something Different than most republicans, very different from romney. He was not a libertarian candidate. He may be governing like one now, but he said he would have a Better Health care system for voters, not a worse one. And so, i think, we have new data that shows abel are actually more open to solving problems, but democrats have to have an answer. Was Donald Trumps a campaign of promises, promises contradictory with a builtin conflict that he couldnt do the things he was promising, because often they were at opposite ends against each other . Areas think in some we saw this when talking to voters afterwards. They like trump. Obamaw voters, the voters, white noncollege voters they like he sounded like he was against traditional republicans are always four. He was against cutting entitlements, cutting medicare, cutting medicaid, cutting Social Security. I actually think ultimately he basically said to voters who were struggling, i understand you are in pain and im going to do something about it. Im going to do something radical. I dont like the answer, but im going to ban immigrants. I think democrats have to have a better answer for the voters who feel like we are suffering in an economy that hasnt done well for people who havent gone to college, particularly. Think a good president ial candidates if we want to jump ahead convey a message that they can connect to people. Ronald reagan did, barack obama did, donald trump did. It wasnt his position on trade or Social Security. Lord knows, Hillary Clinton had a 17 Point Program for every problem that existed in a few that didnt hear it i dont think it was specific items, i think it is what they convey. I think it was a phony message, but trump conveyed a message of we are going to make America Great again, that is what democrats need in the long run. In 2018, everyve off year election, the party out of power is negative and they are usually advantage. Thatng up on one point mike made, the optics are important. Democrats too often look old. T, becausen ageis that would be against myself interest. We need a little bit less of nancy pelosi, less of Chuck Schumer, more of kamala harris, cory booker, sup molten seth moulton. They dont showcase their young politicians as much as they should. I think those optics matter. I hope they develop a candidate who can connect to people the way the successful ones have done in the past. The optics are critical. Part of the optical problem the democrats have if you listen to people when you are Walking Around is that the Democratic Party, the party that belong to and voted for barack obama maybe twice, their Parents Party and their party for years, they now feel that a lot of the National Democrats a more attention to the Silicon Valley than they do to the monongahela valley. They feel a lot of republicans, especially donald trump, in his fraudulent way that he did, are fully artfully but fraudulently, he managed to without really saying it, identify with a huge percentage of people who suffered revis losses in 2008 grievous losses in 2008 and 2009. A lost jobs, income, retirement savings, their home, many of them. A lot of them put their sons and daughters at risk of losing them in a war that has been fought for 16 years. These are the people, the composition, the basis of what the Democratic Party used to be and they fled because of optics. Neera i would like to agree with mike. I would say it is not just optics. Thatee with the substance is essentially we have had massive transformations in the particularly people who havent gone to college are bearing the brunt of. The reality is in the United States today that the Labor Force Participation rate, the number of people he percentage who are in the labor jobs, youshould have know, that rate is lower for people who dont go to College Denver people who go to college, by a lot. It is basically double. Are not in the labor force, it is lower than in france today. I think that is a big challenge for the United States. These people have been suffering. The essential issue is that our it, ournt numbers mask gdp numbers mask it, but if you have not gone to college, this economy has been really tough. Income has declined over the past 15 years for those folks. I think trump spoke to them. I think the reality is we have technology, globalization, these are trends creating incredible pressure particularly for people at the low end of the skills situation. And the reality is, we do not candidates have not given a great answer as to what to do about that. I think we really have to think about different answers like public jobs for folks, jobs and infrastructure, jobs and health care, jobs and hospitals, largescale investments. The current economic debate and the one that we had for the last several years has been pretty limited. Radicaltrump put out answers on trade and elsewhere, but at least some people heard at least he gets the scale of the problem. I think it is important for democrats to put boulder answers on the table. Tradee he also defined and his argument, trade was about jobs for americans and that is how he sought. Is how he saw it. Neera absolutely. Charlie your program has a call senate for American Progress has called for a Marshall Plan for america. What does that mean . We have said that we have looked at the data and as i said, people who have not gone to college have suffered real income decline over the last 15 years, disproportionately out of the labor force. And we looked at the data and saw that you would have to create basically 4. 5 million jobs to get to the labor force participantion rate we had in 2000. We have to provide good jobs for people at the lower end of the skill set who havent had a job in a long time and have been in rural and urban parts of the country. Communitiesrts of and neighborhoods that feel like they have been in a deep recession year after year. We have said if you take a quarter of the amount of what spend,nt trump wants to you could put 4. 5 Million People to work. Charlie when you look at the upcoming midterm elections in 2018, will there be a National Democratic program, or will it be a series of local races . I dont think there will be, charlie. And off you are elections, there rarely is. I think all of the rate gains made were basically negative. There was not a coherent republican message in 2010 other than barack obama is a bum. Send things with the democrats, antigeorge w. Bush year it will be an and try and antitrump message. Hopefully for them that paves the way for two years later, but in that year, they have to score big gains in the gubernatorial races. I know a high oh, michigan, florida, wisconsin, state legislative races, or they really arent one to develop the National Cohesion they need for two years later. Neera i actually think governors will run state specific races, but i think this will be at the heart of successful gubernatorial candidate, which is what can they do to ensure that families who are struggling can actually do better and that their kids can do better than they have. That has been the heart of the debate for the last couple of cycles and i actually think people who try to, with an answer and do it convincingly will be candidates who will be successful. Charlie thank you. Thank you all, we will be right back. Stay with us. Is a newgood time film.
