They want to do a deal where they do criminal justice reform. fine, i'll take it. i have no problem with that bipartisanship but if they want more tax cuts for the rich, i don't want a corporate democrat that's going to help them do that because it's bad on policy but also bad on politics. the country is incredibly progressive. 76% of the country says raise taxes on the rich. don't lower them. so we should pick someone three quarters of the country agrees with. >> i would argue with you that if you want a progressive agenda you should be aiming your attacks not at joe biden but elizabeth warre...

Divided between people who wanted somebody who agreed on the issues or someone who could beat trump. the mueller report really crystallized this for democrats as in we want the guy who can beat the president -- who can beat president trump. the second one was d.c. experience means something. that number hasn't been above 10% in decades. my big takeaway besides it being mixed but good for biden and the other reason it's good for biden is you have three candidates who are splitting evenly the younger, more progressive vote. there is no reason to believe one of them is going to -- sanders will st...

How to appeal to people as an individual, as herself. i would also assert, tucker, all kidding aside that i think she is actually running to split the bernie sanders vote she knows she is not going to be the nominee. what she is doing for someone is splitting that progressive vote that is on the left. the question becomes who is she helping? we might see this in the months to come and of course she expects some favors to be done in the future. that's what's happening here. all bernie sanders supporters who would include someone like ms. alexandria ocasio-cortez and her fans should be doubly in...
