class. it seems demented but what we know about economics. if brian is a professor of busis and economics, let s address the cost. she proposes spending more on this health care plan within the entire federal budget. it s not 52 trillion, we keep talking about this number like it s gospel it s not. it s going to be closer to 60 trillion if anything like this ever comes to be because she s slashing pay for doctors, she is slashing their pay but saying they will still be there, they will serve you and provide health care no they won t. it s going to take way more than $60 trillion to get this done. let s be clear about what is gospel and what is not. you would need to force doctors to provide care. if you aren t going to pay them, how mostly get them to the table? this isn t about money, it s about power. $52 trillion, $60 trillion is the power grab she is trying to
magnitsky act well said. which is supposed to police this kind of thing. and what that act basically says is you can t traipse around the world committing human rights violations and then open a checking account at chase. it s what we do to bond villians to keep thum from having their money in the united states without being personally being able to sanction them, right? now, that is triggered by the senate basically saying, hey, we think some human rights violations have happened, we should investigate it. so that s what bob corking did or lindsey graham and whatever democrats wanted to play along, they triggered an act of investigation under the global m magnitsky act. that makes the president have 120 days to figure out yes, and
bridges which the republicans in the senate will have no interest doing. you re going to see trump again trying to triangulate. what can he do with that amount of money. 802,000 people gave him money. he said he did know take money from corporations or pacts. i also think in therathe fact he s earned so wrumuch i think something that can unify people. every time the e-mail went out, look how much we ve raised and we didn t take money from big corporate donors, these were all small donor donations, and i think that sort of encouraged people to come out and it sort of made him popular i know. but it mattered. if we are talking about energy, emotion, if we are talking about getting people to the polls, that does matter.
the money does matter in the sense of look how much i ve raised. obviously what i m saying resonates with people, and i think that s a message you can take somewhere. obviously what the general democrat party is saying is not resonating with people. there s a reason why beto o rourke is blowing other people away. there was a new york times article that beto a rauo rourkes to share his money. what democrats need to learn be simple. i m going to fight somebody with words. what the democrats need to learn from o rourke and from sanders is that standing up for your principles actually matters and smo motivates people. beyond motivation, where does it reside in the real world ultimately? money gets you in the game.
welcome back to up. that of course was beto o rourke, the three time congressman from el paso, texas. currently returning against incumbent republican ted cruz. congressman o rourke is becoming a household name. he is also becoming a prolific record breaking fund-raiser. in the last quarter alone he raised more than $38 million, and for some perspective that is more money than former florida governor jeb bush raised in his entirety of his presidential campaign. i d like to welcome back my panel. tim, let me go to you first here. there is some disparity between the money he s raking in, way more than ted cruz has. and yet you look at the most recent polling, ted cruz 51 ers, beto a rauo rourke, 43 merse. why isn t it translating and what s it going to take to
