Transcripts For MSNBCW Morning Joe 20190415

So a really special day yesterday, whether you used to root for tiger or not. You saw two things happen. Americans stopped. A lot of americans stopped based on the often calls that were coming in from everybody. Our phone was ringing off the hook yesterday like it hasnt. My gosh, an era where you have 300 cable channels and a million youtube channels, for some reason yesterday, mika, everybody stopped, they were watching tying are and they watched mayor pete. And, i dont know, ten years from now, 20 years from now just may be a day that a lot of people look back on and see history being made. Well, we were shuffling my mom from room to room. Lets go watch tiger, lets watch mayor pete. My move loves mayor pete. Or phone started ringing off the hook from reporters, to republicans to democrats who really feel moved by this candidate. Mike barnicle, talk about, again, i dont want to overstate it but you dont usually have sunday afternoons like we had yesterday. You just for sure. You just dont. With tiger woods be my gosh, tiger could win for the next three or four years. We i dont know. We never saw that coming. But what an extraordinary moment. L you liked tiger in the past it was about more than golf. It was about so much more than golf. It was about redem shn and him sinking that last putt and looking in a way look tiger has never never looked after winning a tournament. Over where they won the firds what he did was a, something to be savored and something that was so special that he would never forget it. Joe, on one Sunday Spring afternoon in augusta, georgia and in south bend, indiana, you had two story that combined to truly represent part of what this country is all about. You had the store over nearly decade get up up off the floor, back in the batters box and become a winner again. And it really was an epic kind of personal story. And then in south bend, ind yabba and by the way, mike, there you see him hugging his children, hugging his mom, this within yeah, in a hes had since his dad was alive when he won his first masters. Now hes hugging his son who was last born the last time tiger won be a and you get young mayor look pete talking to america and hes come, compassionate and intelligent and hes not speaking down to people, not insulting people. Hes talking about the future and basically declaring that the past is the past and youve been tribd. All of these People Living in small midwestern and new england and industrial town, youve been lied to, youve been tribd. The future is here. Up either go forward and retreat into the distance history of the past. It was a remarkable day and two remarkable events. Youre right to call them both remarkable. Donnie deutsche, you had one man whose career was considered over and you had again driving north from augusta, georgia to south bed. Indiana roughly the same age showing a lot of americans the face of it may be on americas Political Landscape for a very long time to come. We saw heros yesterday, two heros in different ways. We have the whether you liked hillary or didnt, you would never attach the word hero to her. Tying are is obviously an africanamerican man and here we have pete compute jej, a gay married man, in is what the face of this country looks like now. It not just a straight whiteman with gray hair. Weep have two. You felt. The old tiger woods was the tiger woods we thought of as a flil andering guy and an underand we saw with a good guy, a noose guy and the word nice is going to be a very, very important word coming going forward. To me, we need that now. We do, donnie. There are a lot of nice candidates on the democrat being field. Mika, there seems to be a conciliatory way that even deals with he is enemies. Im talking with eminates from him is very, very different. Im just saying theres a t lot, we its good in every way and good in everywhere in a trump is the opposite. The rain was coming through the roofs, everybody was the asking thats why heim here today, to tell a different story than make America Great again. Because theres a myth being sewed to striel and rur go it comes from people who think the only way to speak to communities like ours are through resentment and nostalgia. Theyre certainlying a pr the problem is that theyre telling us to look for greatness in all the wrong places. I kwk of doing this as a midwestern and i will seek the highest office in the land. Up until recently, this was not exactly what i had in behind either, for how i was going to spend my eighth year as mayor and my 38th year in the world. But we live in a moment that compels us each to act. The forces changing our country today are tectonic, forces that helped to explain what made this current presidency even possible. Thats why this time its not just about winning an election. Its about winning an era. [ cheers and applause ] if America Today feels like a confusing place to live, its because were on one of those blanc pages in between chapters. Change is is coming ready or not. The question of our time is whether family and workers or whether we will master them and make them work for a better daytoday life for us all. A moment look that calls for hopeful and audacious voices from communities like ours. And, yes, it calls for a new generation of leadership in this country. Well written, well delivered. Hes the right one for that message hes sending. Well, when they were asking who wrote the speech, he said, we dont have speech writers, it was may pete who wrote the speech. There were so many echos of the kennedys, of j. F. K. And r. F. K. There and im not just talking about the obvious one, the new generation of leadership, but he sounded like bobby when he p he talked about living in a time that compels each of us to act or almost a j. F. K. Sort of a ring of j. F. K. Optimism, youth, new life. But also saying this isnt about winning an election, this is about winning an era. And, adrienne, you really did get the sense that this was a guy talk and ill just ask you the response you got because i will tell you again mika, you know, when she was 9 years old, she was going to the white house. Id been in politics for 25, 30 years. People call me all the time when they have a political comment. I must say other than barack obama running in 2008 and i remember as a kid Ronald Reagan in 1980, i never really got flooded with the type of phone calls and heard the excitement that i heard yesterday afternoon from republicans, independents and democrats. Yeah. Same here, joe. Between mayor petes speech and the masters, my phone was blowing up yesterday afternoon, too. And heres the thing. Heres a guy who represents the next generation of democrats, who is in a red state giving a speech talking about how mayors are executives, which i think is an Important Message that, sure, im the mayor of a medium sized and im young, heres my vision. secondly, there is a region we do need to win back as democrats. We may not win indiana back this temperature time in 2020. So it was veryin spiring to see this. With where does he go next . How and i think were taking spt the question is can he scale this operation . All president ial operations as a friend reminded me yesterday, they have to be scaled and they have to be scaled quickly. A more important question for mayor pete is this db overwhelmingly white but you cant win by exciting educated white people in the Democratic Party. Up have to have a more dihow will he fare among hispanics and black voters and other persons . Youre right. We shouldnt lose sight of what a hark no one knew abouthes be minor leagues. He has earned his spot on the big stage. He has proven adept to have a campai campaign. Hes he resonating with a lot of people. The kennedy themes are there correctly, the comparisons you drew yesterday, but i was struck by the repeated use of the word you a disity. Hives trying it link himself to bad freshman senator, sw but was still really an unnone to youre doing this too soon,or not ready. And maybe people or a lot of people think im too young or i dont look like or foot the bill of what america should likely. In. He is going to have to spack minority leaders so has some civil rights policing issues in his hometown as the nation gets to know hum better, but it was a remarkable first step yesterday. So, mika, jonathan brought up a really important point about the sudden rise of mayor pete, and that is making himself available. What we told candidates time and again when Mike Huckabee always made himself available, shocked the world with a win without a Campaign Staff and of course donald trump in 2016. Trump always made himself available. People complained bitterly about the fact he was always on tv, that he was on this show, thieves on cnn and fox all the time. Guess what . He made himself available. It was like cracking the code to fort knox to get other candidates on the show. We offered other candidates to come on the show any time they wanted to. Call in. They were too a d. A. Dave wept to New Hampshire, kaemin pore o introduce yourself to the American People and if you or your Campaign Staff, if theyre skill to that you and eddie, and id love to followup answer from adrienne on this but looking at where leads are come from, just in this moment in time, which is very early, i sort of feel like this kennedy concept, this young, new, millennial concept in beto, which i would love for him to come on the show to understand what hes like but i feel like that concept has been forced on me. Dont tell me this candidate is the one. You hear about a and you feel this sort of contrived candidacy. And then lock at mayor pete, who has literally come out of nowhere, and it feels much more natural. It feels real. You hear him and he touches you. Does that make sense . Absolutely. I said on this show i believe it will be an interesting conversation when beto has to hold himself own against someone like mayor pete with regards to the millennials, in terms of pub stance i heard two things, one i heard that politician that sits in the pace between a die someone giving voice to that period of transition. The second thing i heard is mayor pete was looking for a new con accepts us story. When we talk about make America Great again be where there was consensus narrative, a story that linked us pulp if it was a story about a srn Understanding America that had turned its face away from all of this ugliness. But mayor pete suggested theres another way to tell a story of america, that think he put forward the outlines of a new con sensitive story but now its time to join it with substantive policy. Weep get et message, now what is your position on we just cant be slogan. So adrienne, does the democratic establishment see this cant . One could argue they missed what was happening in thats kindly putting it kwou former colleagues of mine over the past few days who said im interested in to transition from this sort of fringe candidacy, well see if it goes anywhere, to this guys the real deal, im inspired by him, i think we can make this movement in something that actually is a full fledged, real be somebody that inspires people but. You cant really go anywhere, if i do think that beto in many respects has more to lose here. He narrowly lost to ted cruz, which is transitioning to a purple state in texas. But for somebody look him, he came on the scene. Mayor pete was like i dont have a whol lot to lose and that aforwards you an unity to toe there were times when a mayor from a a mediumsized town could not run for president. He is moving thats pop the again, as the mirror image dro maybe pete has nothing to lose. Who does that sond look . It sounds an awful lot like donald trump four years ago when he was taking a lot of bold positions, i would say reckless and irresponsible position but still felt like he nothing to lose. You could see it on the campaign trail every day. You sense that again with mayor pete, who will again get out there, go on interviews, take interviews. Hes not afraid. And hes not afraid for americans to see who he is. And hes got the,josh, you were actually were talking a lot about people on phones outside of south bend, indiana,out side, you were inside. Tell us what you saw. It was pouring all all day long to south bend, joe. They had to move it into an old car factory instead of the car outside roomso the wreel and i have to tell you, they were all just enthused, they were revved up. Weep talked to a lot of them who said that theyve already made up their minds, you know, in is someone they hadnt known even existed a few weeks ago but a few instances of hearing him talk, hearing the they were pretty much sold. You are right, it was a very white crowd, more diverse in terms of age than it was in terms of other factors. And that is certainly something that i think butte generally is going to have to really work on, particularly given some of the cross currents of the democratic primary right now. But he certainly had a lot of enthusiasm and folks who seemed like they were taking from him something that they were not seeing in any other democratic candidate in this field. All right. Were going to have much more on mayor petes announcement throughout the show. Were going to bring in the Washington Posts robert costa, who is in south bend this morning. And as joe mentioned, dr. Campbell picks up our checkup series. And another history making event on tap this week. Bob muellers report goes public. Well get a preview of that just ahead. Plus, the White House Says Congress isnt smart enough to look through the president s tax returns. Does it also hold the American People in such low regard . That conversation and much more is coming up on morning joe. N on a john deere x300 series mower. Because Seasons Change but true character doesnt. Wow, youve outdone yourself this time.

After 35 million with 13 increased to 18 angry democrats, people that were absolutely haters of trump, they found no collusion. It was an illegal investigation. It was started illegally. Everything about it was crooked. This was an attempted coup. This was an attempted takedown of a president and we beat them. Mika, i dont understand. Hes panicking there. Its a laughable freakout on Donald Trumps part. Hes just spitting out everything he can, hes swinging wildly and yet just a couple of weeks ago he was praising the investigation calling it honorable. Remember when everybody was taking a victory lap . It sounds like he must be concerned with whats coming up. Maybe. The redacted version on Robert Muellers report is now expected to be released this week after more than two years of Robert Muellers appointment as special counsel. On friday Justice Department officials were in the final stages of planning the delivery of this roughly 400page reports to lawmaker. Aides say President Trump has become emboldened by attorney general William Barrs summary, even as the white house awaits new details. Theres no that that summary he released can encapsulate even onetenth of what is in a 400 page report that include the quote he did use in his summary is that it is not an exoneration in terms of obstruction. So the stories in there and the evidence in there and the facts in there must be fascinating. John them lemire, you liked to listen to dark side of the moon while watching the wizard of oz. Remember when the wicked witch of the west starts crying im melting, im melting. Donald trump sort did that in front of the cameras. There was a similarity. There was a fullblown meltdown there. Can you give us insight into why he went from saying Robert Mueller did an honorable job to this meltdown where hes spitting and crying about a coup and all that other nonsense, whatever he was spitting out. He sounded like a desperate man. What was going on here . I was more of a u2rem guy in college. What were seeing here from the president is American Public has now waited almost two years for Robert Muellers report. Dont make plans the nks text tr three days because thats the wildly held belief is when well get to see it. But inside the white house you saw you played the clip there. Right after barr put out his summary, the president was reliev relieved, called it a total exoneration, which it was not. He had that rally in michigan saying he was prove i dont know right, no collusion, that he was going to use this report as a political weapon against his enemies. That tone has changed the last would you mean of weeks. Theres a growing recognition theres going to be if not criminal, damaging and embarrassing information coming out in this report. They know its going to be a problem and theyre going to take the barr summary and say thats what matters, thats the top line and that the report itself is just filling in the details. Theyre going to claim the democrats are going to twist it and take what conclusions they want aorney general has already made his ruling. Lets point out the attorney general who made the ruling not to charge obstruction was appointed by donald trump after putting out his own as a private citizen letter suggest
