And ool softeners for comfortable relief of hard stools. Dulcolax, signed for dependable relief donald trump is a loud, n nasty fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and who serves no one but himself. You donald trump, are a total disgrace. You shame yourself and you shame this great country. And we will not allow a small, insecure, thinskinned tyrant or
his allies in the senate to destroy the rule of law in the United States of america. We will not. Wow. Well now, good morning, it is friday, june 10th. Welcome to morning joe. That was something. Brisk. She kept going. Did she really . I became a huge Elizabeth Warren fan last night. She went down and punched him down on the ground. She goes after trump in a way that is a better than its vicious, its genuine. Why do you think its better than other people . It comes from the gut. I think she has a street fighting way that is genuine and real and for the first time, i was looking at her, boy, her and hillary together would be an interesting ticket for the first time. Much in the same way that clinton and gore kind of had it together. I was like, i wouldnt want to
tangle with those two together. John heilemann, are you hearing that . Hillary and Elizabeth Warren is a ticket . I have said three or four months she would be on the very top of the short list. She may not be the Vice President or the running mate but she will be in that three or four people. Just in their meet iing this morning in washington. That would be one of a thousand predictions you get right if that happens. I dont know if shes trying out or it comes from the gut. That comes from her. But those two things are mutually exclusive. It comes from the gut and trying out. You see that in her eyes the vistriol and the passion and th way shes approaching things. One other element that none of the republican candidates running in the primaries against donald trump had, shes
fearless. They feared him. The difference between what we saw yesterday and what we have seen throughout this entire process is you have had republicans afraid to cross donald trump. Even now afraid to cross donald trump after he makes what they call racist comments. They are still afraid to cross him and still afraid to say were going to endorse you any way. Because they still fear donald trump. Fear has been driving this party and its reaction to donald trump since august. She helps with progressives. She helps widen the gender gap. Is and four, shes the historic
kind of if youre going to double down on history not just on the chemistry, but if were going to have a woman president , a Vice President. They actually u work together. They are collaborative. Thats thrown me off. Stop wearing that jacket. Its something my progressive gender, i was one of the first candy stripers work iing in hospitals and were mocking. With us onset we have legendary column iist mike
barnacle. Also managing editor of bloomberg politics, it airs at 6 00 p. M. On msnbc John Heilemann. And we have political analyst and former chairman of the Republican National committee Michael Steele and Political Correspondent casey hunt covering the Clinton Campaign. Lets talk about the collective scar tissue and what impact its had on this race. At least to this point. I think at this point, especially last night when you heard from warren, the president , biden, it was an awful night for the republicans. And i dont say that with glee because i think it sounded like you said it with glee. It kind of sounded like it. Lets get to the news and then well talk about this. But if there was any glee there, its because theres some leaders there including donald
trump who have let america down. Im glad somebody stood up to it. We have talked about the tough week donald trump has had on the campaign and now theres evidence that all of this has taken a toll. The Fox News National poll taken from sunday through wednesday Shows Hillary clinton ahead of trump, 42 to 39 , thats inside the margin of error. But it is a 6point drop for trump since last month. Among independents he still leads clinton 35 to 30 , but hes down 11 points since last month in the key voting group. The poll shows that majorities believe clinton and trump do not have the integrity to serve effectively. 54 saying no for clinton, 58 for trump. But clinton is ahead on the knowledge. 71 saying clinton has it. 38 saying trump does. Wow. On the question of who will shake things up in washington, only 37 for clinton and 76 say
clinton will. 47 say they will vote for their candidate. Lets stop right there. This is all Elizabeth Warren, good for her as well. Lets start with donald trump down 6 points since last month. Down 11 points among independents. This is taking a toll on him. Predictably so. It doesnt diminish it at all. The thing thats dangerous for trump right now is that that is all prior to the stuff thats happened on the democratic side this week. Those 6 points have been selfinflicted. Now youre going to see Hillary Clinton get the bump. Thats the loss before the bump of bernie meeting with obama and obama endorsing hillary and the democrats coming together and you have donny
deutsch, down among independents. Hes lost 11 points. But a key group for him and hes bleeding support. Bpicture going forward. You have bill clinton, barack obama, Elizabeth Warren on the campaign trail. Particularly Bernie Sanders two amazing fundraisers. Its beginning to be interesting. Trump was quiet all week. Quietest since the primaries. And hes going to come out monday night. Hes tipped. Its going to be this anticlinton speech. When hes backed in a corner, its to get even nastier. Thats going to backfire on him. It doesnt work anymore. I have a prediction. I was saying this to mike. He has never been in the public eye as getting bashed. Hes not used to that. I would actually see where the story ends and love to hear. But at some point him bowing out and going home. If you look at every president that would be thin skinned. Bob dole and al gore, mitt romney, these people get labeled losers. Which they shouldnt. Donald trump, i think at some point the way this ends you think he might just e he takes his toys and goes home. I have heard other people say that. The difference between donald trump and these other guys when talking about romney or bob dole, they are politicians for life. Donald trump, hes talked about it, joked about it, but somebody close to trump and the organization said always remember. If it continues, if he gets brand ed a monumental loser, wh
knows what happens. What you do here in this small town big town in manhattan from various people who know trump and business with trump is that he is acutely sensitive to the brand. Thats the most important aspect of his life of who he is. He measures every political statement he makes and every political appearance he makes blended in with is this going to help or hurt the brand. That is his down fall. Because the level of selfabsorption within donald trump thats there today or there 50 years ago, it prohibits him from talking about the country. Talking about how he would make a difference. Look at Trump University. Michael steele, talk about selfself selfinflicted wounds. Hes down 11 over the past month with independents. Down 6 with all voters since the last month. So much of that has to do with him obsessing over a battle with an indiana judge over Trump University. Not over any issue that matters to americans or to republicans or to conservatives. Its something that matters to him and him alone. Joe, i suspect he will be down another 5 points by this time next week once, as you discussed, the numbers settle in after this week, which has been a phenomenal week for the democratic party. Which unfortunately if you had a different nominee or nominee with a different mind set not talking about a personal legal matter but talking about the 38,000 jobs from last month, talking about the i. G. Report, talking about trade and other issues that have palpable impact on the democratic normminee can i stop you there for a second . Sure. Can you believe the i. G. Report that came out talking about Hillary Clinton playing fast and loose with information
regarding drone strikes, as top secret as it gets, and we have a republican nominee hes talking about Trump University. Are you kidding me . That would be dominating the week, but for Donald Trumps own selfabsorbed campaign. I adopted the Bernie Sanders line and said, we dont care about your damn university. We dont care about your damn lawsuit. Talk about the fact that you have these things that are third party indictments against Hillary Clinton and her cozying assuming the obama agenda on the economy, the 38,000 jobs are yours. Youre talking about that and youre exactly right. Mika, one of the most abysmal job reports we have had and its responded to by one tweet. The campaign is running stupid. There is no campaign. Theres no campaign. He doesnt want to be president. My private conversation with him when he was about to win iowa. Were talking on the phone. He goes, can you believe this . I said, do you actually want to be president . Changed the subject. Im going to say it again. Hes not going to be on the ticket. Radio silence since this judge thing because e he cant be told hes wrong. I will say you are wrong when you are wrong. This is wrong. It shouldnt be done. You should apologize. I cant get over it. Im sorry. Its not his brand. By the way, nor can a lot of people. This campaign is going downhill. I predict the next polls are even worse. This guy is literally deep sixing his campaign. The republicans who are reaching out to me, also to you. My phone is going crazy. They are ab sloutly stunned. Chris christie, walk away. Put down your bag, take your jacket off and walk out of that campaign before you ruin your future. Hes ruined it already. These guys, paul ryan, whats wrong with you . Let me tell you what republicans are yearning for, at least a good number of republicans. One person, just one person. Its not paul ryan. Because paul ryan said im for the racist because hes not had hillary. Hes not paul ryan. Just imagine what a Chris Christie standing up saying, i got behind this guy because i believed that he understood what working class voters across new jersey and america what they werent hearing from the Republican Leaders. I got behind him for the right reasons, pu you know what, hes
not following through on his commitment to me or to the Republican Voters and i cant be behind him u. Its okay to do that. If somebody would do that, you talked about a shot in the arm for anybody politically. Joe, i wanted to go back to something Donny Deutsch said. He was talking about the politicians fearing donald trump. They dont fear donald trump. Donald trump is not the fear factor. Its the base of support. Its the 14 million voters hes brought out. Its how that number of activists between now and the convention. And they havent figured out how to distance themselves from trump and bring those voters in to Something Different in another way. Were for you, were just not
for Donald Trumps racist comments. Obama just endorsed crooked hillary. Nobody else wants four more years of obama. Delete your account, a popular internet expression for when someone said something deeply inaccurate or tone death. It has 375,000 retweets making it clintons most popular tweet yet. Trump responded, how long did it take for your staff of 823 poem to think that up. Where are your 33,000 e emails that you deleted . The rnc chairman tweeted at clinton, if anyone knows how to use a delete key, its you. The Communications Director added, whichever intern just sent this doesnt get its not smart for you to talk about deleting anything. Kasie hunt, wow, what a zinger on twitter. This would have been a great week for Hillary Clinton. The Campaign Must be so relieved theres no Trump Campaign that can think beyond Donald Trumps very thin skin and the criticism hes getting about the judge. The Clinton Campaign could not be in a better place to put it mildly. Think about what we learned yesterday. Hillary clinton is going to walk out on the campaign trail. Her, bill clinton, president obama, joe biden, Elizabeth Warren and at this point its probably also going to be Bernie Sanders. That is a formidable team. Right now they are up against a Republican Party that frankly cant stand behind its current normminee because of the thingse has been saying. So the staff at headquarters yesterday was gathered around a couple tvs as they watched that video from president obama clapping and cheering. Some of those aids have been
with had Hillary Clinton for a decade and they remember her cry ing in front of secret Service Agents when she lost the nomination to barack obama almost eight years to the day since that actually happened. Now i think it really was a moment. Weve been talking about the speculation. One clinton aid told me that Elizabeth Warren has proven herself to be an attack dog against donald trump in a way that honestly they are a little surprised by. They are not ready to engage in more direct vp speculation, but she put herself back on the radar in that way u. But were talking about tweets going back and forth with tweets instead of a response to the i. G. Report on acting fast and loose. Its campaign suicide. Dismal jobs report and they are tweeting. Heres the thing. Just in terms of cold, hard political analysis and what we watched. We all agree the republican side is in disarray. Theres no Trump Campaign. Think about the political difficulty of what the democratic side had to manage this week. The end of the nominating process, Bernie Sanders, can we unite the party. Whats going on in Bernie Sanders head. What do we have to orchestrate this week. Yesterday in a great delicacy, they basically essentially said yesterday hes not going to fight on to philadelphia and hes going to endorse Hillary Clinton and be on her side. That doesnt take a decoder to figure that out from bha he said. They got him out of the race. They got the obama endorsement. You had biden and warren both beating donald trump senseless on Television Last night with powerful attacks that are on message. This is like a professional high level professional political operation going on in the white house in conjunction with the
brooklyn headquarters of Hillary Clinton. Thats how you run a president ial campaign. This is the moment of highest vulnerability for the democratic ticket. They executed perfectly all week long. On the other side, you have a state of complete disarray. And a response to all of that with a tweet. Theres one added ingredient to this that flew under the radar yesterday because of the nature of the endorsement from the president. But i am told by several people within the white house do not underestimate Barack Obamas eagerness to crush donald trump. Not defeat him, crush him. Off of partially the birth certificate flap, its personal. Its deeply personal. Its about maintaining his legacy, he knows whats at stake, but its also really personal. Obamas mind trump represents everything that all of the darkness hes confronted over the last eight years buzz hes the most prominent exponent and voice for the birther thing. He is going to be aggressive. Not only that, even though i would not be in this approval category, barack obama is politically a giant, a giant among very small politicians on both sides. 51 overall if youre driving. 88 among democrats. 82 among Bernie Sanders primary voters. 90 among americans, who are going to be vital for hillary. Latinos, 73 . Among millennials, those 18 to 34, 64 Approval Rating. Thats somebody that any democratic candidate is going to want. And i it was chuck todd saying he doesnt want to go down as the obama presidency. When you go into that third
term, it becomes an era. Michael steele has been trying to get in. Just real quick. All that is great about obama, but there are some potential dangers for him to get totally engaged in this. Over the course of the summer we get continued weak job reports thark could be a problem. And secondly, this fall premiums start to go up on obamacare. Thats going to hit a lot of wallets. That could be a discussion this fall. Donald trump wont be smart enough to use that. He will be too busy tweeting about little things. And saying racist things. That split screen. When Donald Trumps helicopter was landing in New Hampshire back in 2012 and president obama got up there and essential ly released his birth certificate to stomp all over donald trump, thats the koind of optics we might see from this president. This is like metaphorically, this is what we have had thats the metaphor of this crucial turning point in the campaign these two weeks. Its been split screen of what we have seen from donald trump and the operation to the extent that exists and now we have seen on the democratic side.
