MSNBCW Morning Joe November 9, 2017

What the shocking thing the president said about china, he doesnt blame them. They should be commended for doing the tension he said he would stop during campaign. Its just like the president on the campaign trail in 2016 promising he was going to pass Economic Reforms and health cuts to help working class americans. Thats not happening now also a couple nights ago, the impact that his broken promises from the campaign ads in the elections tuesday night when he promised the Health Care System, that was going to be keeper, more affordable, give people more Health Care Coverage and wouldnt have any cuts for medicaid or medicare, those broken promises lead to lost elections and mika, the fact that the Republican Party right now in castle hill seems to be in a sense of denial, thats great, great news is any can the running in 2018. It means they will keep rung towards that cliff and jump off that political cliff like a lot of people in virginia did the other night. I dont understand this strategy at all, republicans on capitol hill reacted to tuesdays large democratic gains in new jersey, and elsewhere around what those results can middle eastern for next years midterm. John mccain said unless we get our act together, we will lose heavily. Many colleagues werent so sure. Im not surprised the democrat won the election over there. I think it would probably surprise people the margin. How much the president played into it, its going to be the pundits will debate that. The Democratic Party in this election was more energized it looks to me than the republican voter. Why that is, i dont know. A lot are saying its because of the president. Well, you know, maybesh maybe not. Reporter are we seeing the president potentially be a drag on his party here. I dont know. R. Is the president going to be a drag on republicans next year . I dont think so. I dont think so. Actually i think if anything, if he had gotten more involved in these races, it may have turned the other way. This is not a typical cycle we hope to reverse this thend next year. Reporter are you worried about next year . No, i like a good fight. To him till liss said on tuesday quote, he got to be rhino, republicans in need of outcomes, thats something House Speaker paul ryan echoed in an interview yesterday morning. In virginia, new jersey, elsewhere, what is your does that capping your reading of the current political moment and of the urgency surrounding tax reform in. It doesnt change my reading of the current moment, it emphasizes my current moment. Which is we have a promise to keep. We have to get on with making our promise. I adore gillespie, i feel bad he lost, i think it means we have to deliver. Joe. Actually, i dont, i dont read any of that as negative, i think paul ryan is exactly right. They have to get things done. This has been a donothing Republican Congress. Theyve controlled all of washington. Theyve delivered nothing. I dont know that that played really big in virginia and across the country in the state wide races. I think, and were going to have a guest on later on today who has said that we pay too much attention to people that are down ballot. We look at their characteristics too much, something suggested in his twitter feed that a bag of mulch just one the governship of virginia. I think thats a little hoursh for half northam. But the point was, that it really did all flow down from donald trump. He has offended twothirds of americans, he has offended women. He has offended a lot of independents. Hes offensive in general. I mean, cmon. Around the world. Well, there is no cmon here. Im not debating you. Im saying, donald trump was the cause of the tidal wave. He was the earthquake that caused, well, well just say, willie, that caused the tsunami. Those republicans, you didnt expect them to come out and draumpb and most of them just were politely brushing away the questions. But there is no doubt behind the scenes him im sure heidi can tell this, republicans are fretting, because they know unless they are in a dark, dark red district in 2018, this is going to happen this them. I dont think the blinders are so big based on the people i talked to yesterday in the Republican Party, that was representative of what we heard on camera from some senators of what the party is feeling right now. There is no way you can watch tuesday night, not just at the governors level, do under the ballot through the House Flipping in a historic way, what happened in maine with the expansion of the medicaid benefits, not see some concern over a president polling at 35 and who hasnt doten anything done, i think this puts a lot more pressure on the tax bill we will get a peek at today. If are you a member like barbara come stack sitting in a hillary district or in illinois, you woke up in a cold sweat. Why . Because this really wasnt about some democratic model, maybe i can gain this out and be a rhino and win. No, if this repieces itself in 2018, members like her are toast. There is no model how you run against this. This was a wave. You have a lot of people claiming victory today in a Democratic Party t. Moderates, the liberal progressives. Because everyone was represented in a wave, which is what this was. The white house yesterday insisted the democratic gains had nothing to do with the president a. Person familiar with the president s political operation called the results unsurprising. When asked about the fear level for the upcoming midterms, says 2018 is a far way away, now as far as 2016 is in the past. Still the president tweeted yesterday to mark the i was in of the 2016 election writing, quote, congratulations to all of the deplorables and the millions of people who gave us a massive 304 to 227 Electoral College landslide victory. Joe, lets see who is Still Standing in that picture. Hmm. Well, we will see next year, it may be a little different next year. But, harold ford, we brought up this point yesterday that after the 2016 loss, everybody was focused on Hillary Clinton, it was all about Hillary Clintons loss and thats what was wrong with the Democratic Party. Were still having people talk about the divide in the Democratic Party. But if you wanted to know how sick that party was, you looked at that time thousand legislative seats they had lost over the past seven, eight years. Its the same thing with the election yesterday. You can talk about ed gillespie and what type of campaign he hasnt all day. Thats not the story. The story is that the democrats were down Something Like 63 to 37. I dont know noe those numbers are exactly right. They came storming back. Again, its that tidal wave. They can only be explained away by one thing, donald trump. I agree with the way you characterize. I listened to the house members yesterday, including the one from virginia. He said this race was not nationalized. In fact, it was. The republicans did not accomplish a lot in washington. It certainly played into voters minds, trump himself we all have been known such an objectionable and inflammatory figure its hurt them badly. Democrats should not overread this. You can look back on history and when new jersey and Virginia Governor races have gone one direction, its slightly mixed. It shows when democrats did updates the most recently in 05 they were able gain. Governor northam, he fit the state. Heres a democrat that fit george w. Bush two times for president. Its up clear if given the chance to have chosen a nominee in virginia, would have chosen dr. Northam the message is that blue dog moderate lil liberal, progressive. It takes both wins to flight. To be successful, remember its only one year since donald trump was elected. Mika says so much has changed. So much can change for the better or the worse, my urging of them, my own party is, stay focused, continue to pick good candidates, work with the president where it makes sense, especially on taxes and other things, it will benefit the very voters we have to win back come next 84 and obviously 2020. You know, sometimes it comes down to bakes. You seen this all the time on the zoe show before elections. It is obvious, but its obviously the reason why people win it. Its like block and tackling football games. Its turn jut, turnout, turnout. You can lock and see across the state, ed gillespie did fairly well with republicans. Those ads, that brought a lot of republicans home, if you look at the polling. Just mike barnacle, more democrats went out to vote. More democrats stood in line longer. More democrats called their friends, more democrats took their friends to the voting booths. More democrats were engaged than republicans. It was just because of a great turnout. Few look at next years elections, its going to come down to turnout again, because the democrats, they still have a tough uphill battle if you look at whats happening in the senate. Joe, no doubt about that. You saw that in the numbers and the percentages yesterday, in every place where they voted. But back to basics, one of the basics we have to measure here as you walk around any place in this country. There is a level of both exhaustion and embarrassment with donald trump. Yeah. Exhaustion because of the tweets, multiple times a day, embarrassment because i think a lot of people sit and think, is this the kind of behavior we want from the president of the United States . We saw a clip from the president at the top of the show talking about congratulating china on the fact that theyre doing for their people what he is unable to to do for our people here, theyre taking advantage of us. Because within moments of his assuming the presidency one year ago, he immediately rescinded tpp the Transpacific Partnership, which was a terrific boone for trading for the United States of america. Thats gone now the chinese and russians will dominate the pacific rim. Because were withdrawn. Right. You have that. Then have you the reality, people Pay Attention in this country. People Pay Attention to things like the proposed tax bill, they call it tax reform, no, its tax revenge if you look at that bill, the elements of that bill. People are sitting out there in the disturbs, the cities, thinking, wait a minute, state and local tax, we will not be able to put that on our tax rurps. You know high medical costs, Student Interest loans eliminated . Thats the problem we have. Thats the problem they are living with. That itself the problem that will drown them. The bill, mika, there are some portions of that bill, that tax bill, that are absolutely inexplicable. That itself the sort of thing we have to pay for. If you want to go to the inside game and see how the elections impact donald trump. Members of the house and senate are going to be less likely to follow him off the cliff and also a tweet like he did right after ed gillespie lost and obviously could have used a little moral support from the president. A tweet kicking him the second he was down hard saying he lost because he didnt bow down to me enough. That remembered by members in Congress Just like that tweet and just like his comment talking about the mean gop House Health Care bill. This is scar tissue. It adds up. When you see somebody running and cow tail to you as much as they can. You still get kicked because you lose by the president of the United States . First, obviously, its classless, its horrific management. It makes them less loyal. Its mean, it shows how quick he will turn on someone transactionally. Of the trump supporters, many are close to you. I wonder how long they can actually hold on to protecting someone who consistently lies, lets them down and embarrasses them. At some point, there is going to be a breaking point, especially if they are let down in their wallet. Ron mcdaniel claimed that Democrat Ralph Northam won because he embraced trump. I think whats very interesting with the virginia vase Ralph Northam started running ads, saying i will work with this president. He moderated sanctuary cities and statues. We seen him gain traction. He moved the needle by saying i will work with this president. Wait, im confused. Heidi, she follows data. No, he got stomped. Ralph northam got stomped in rural virginia, in fact, he did worse in rural virginia than democrats in the past did, again, this is an alternate reality that if republicans choose to live in that alternate reality, its only going to hurt the republicans at the end of the day. You will have what happened in 2012 where carl rove and the romneys and other people believed late into the night that they were still going to boat barack obama when everybody else was fought watching fox news knew it was over. Heidi the white house believes in ultnaat reality. Is it working for them . What is going on. We have numbers, throw down some numbers here. Facts . In terms of the virginia vote the number one issues were decidedly a backlash to the president s agenda, healthcare number one, guns number two. In terms of explaining this margin, we really got to point out here that there was a decisive shift they think was in Ralph Northams favor. When i showed up at my polling station. I pulled up behind a woman driving a prius, every Single Person in there was a middle aged woman and sure enough when i came out, we looked at the data, this was women revolting. Turning out in higher numbers. And that is proven out in the data. Everywhere. One of the big stories here is what happened with the house of delegates. You can draw a direct line from the women who participated in that womens march in january to the women who then decided to stake action and run and contest these races where, by the way, they didnt go for open seats, they knacked off incumbents. Amazing. Maybe thats been from the rnc, we helped them sleep at night, its preposterous that Ralph Northam embraced donald trump too much completely preposterous, alarm bells ought to be going off, i understand why the senators say what they say. They want to project calm. Behind the scenes, they should be very worried, democrats are energi energized, this was the catharsis, the beginning of the comeback, donald trump for one year made their lives miserable, now they are ready to come back. They believe virginia is the first step back. You may have heard this story from tuesdays elections, its worth telling again, in new jersey, a 32yearold woman was elected to her local county board after deciding to challenge a republican law makeer who mocked last januarys womans march. Ashley bennett decided to run in a republican strong hold after the incumbent posted a facebook quote will the womens march end in time for them to cook dinner . Carmen said he was joking around, now its bennett who is laughing hysterically. She won by nearly a thousand votes, kicked him out. About 14,000 total cast. You know what . I mean i guess i should say the story speaks for itself, joe. Well, it does, but heidis story is so important. Again it fits with what you and i were hearing both of us from a lot of women that were in virginia saying, guess what . Its raining, and guess what . There are women standing in line. Its so interesting in all my years covering politics and being in politics, ive never heard a description like that. Its raining and these women, theyre just standing in line and theyre not moving. Er that not going anywhere. This is the revenge that they are seeking for all of the slights that donald trump has done. By the way, question go back to the access Hollywood Tapes, all the hor risk lights, et cetera, et set remarks we can talk about all that. Few look at who donald trump is nominating for positions in washington, d. C. , predominantly white men, overwhelmingly white men, if you look, for instance, at the u. S. Attorneys hes appointing. I saw some in i dont remember exactly Something Like 49 out of 52 or 53 men. Donald trump is basically saying women need not apply in this administration, if you are looking, if you want to be a u. S. Attorney or a judge or these other positions and guess what, women are pushing back and theyre pushing back hard. Its going to make a huge difference in 2018. Hired by looks, by the way. Ralph northam won by 22 points, hillary in virginia by 17 points. Ralph northam got a bigger share of the women votes than Hillary Clinton did. I think women are inspired by Hillary Clinton, stepped up and ran, take it forward. Still ahead on morning joe, the newly reelected mayor of new york city, bill deblasio joins us on set and joe manchin and Susan Collins looking to bridge the divide on capitol hill. Well be right back. You are watching morning joe. Witness katy perry. Witness katy perry become a legal witness. Witness katy perry and left shark. Or a card shark. Grandma . Witness katy perry work.

Trade between china and the United States has not been over the last many, many years a very fair one for us. Right now, unfortunately, it is a very onesided and up fair one, but, but, i dont blame china. After all, whoa can blame a country for being able to take advantage of another country for the benefit of its citizens . I give chosen great credit. But in actuality, i do blame past administrations for allowing this out of control deficit to take place and to grow there thats President Trump speaking in front of Business Leaders last night in beijing. Joining us the deny at the university of denver, u. S. Ambassador to south cre why and assistant secreta
