WEBVTT

00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:02.867
SENATE OVER THE NEXT TWO

00:00:02.868 --> 00:00:03.201
YEARS.

00:00:03.202 --> 00:00:07.071
THE DNC COMMUNICATIONS

00:00:07.072 --> 00:00:09.374
DIRECTOR SOCHI HOLESON,

00:00:09.375 --> 00:00:11.009
WELCOME BACK TO OUR PROGRAM.

00:00:11.010 --> 00:00:14.646
>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

00:00:14.647 --> 00:00:16.347
>> Bill: REPUBLICANS ARE

00:00:16.348 --> 00:00:18.216
PUTTING A TARGET ON GREEN

00:00:18.217 --> 00:00:18.983
NEW DEAL TEAM.

00:00:18.984 --> 00:00:20.752
>> THE GREEN NEW DEAL IS A

00:00:20.753 --> 00:00:21.553
RESOLUTION THAT BASICALLY

00:00:21.554 --> 00:00:22.720
TALKS ABOUT HOW CLIMATE

00:00:22.721 --> 00:00:24.222
CHANGE IS REAL AND IT'S AN

00:00:24.223 --> 00:00:25.590
EMERGENCY IN OUR COUNTRY.

00:00:25.591 --> 00:00:27.192
AND WE MUST FIX THIS IN A

00:00:27.193 --> 00:00:28.393
WAY THAT WE ARE CREATING

00:00:28.394 --> 00:00:29.427
GOOD PAYING JOBS.

00:00:29.428 --> 00:00:31.996
AND SO THIS IS A DOCUMENT

00:00:31.997 --> 00:00:33.431
THAT BASICALLY TALKS ABOUT

00:00:33.432 --> 00:00:40.271
THAT THAT DEMOCRATS ARE

00:00:40.272 --> 00:00:43.274
STANDING MIND HAVE

00:00:43.275 --> 00:00:44.275
REPUBLICANS WHO WENT DO

00:00:44.276 --> 00:00:45.577
ANYTHING OR TAKE A STAND ON

00:00:45.578 --> 00:00:46.377
WHETHER THEY THINK CLIMATE

00:00:46.378 --> 00:00:47.212
CHANGE IS REAL.

00:00:47.213 --> 00:00:49.047
I THINK WHAT YOU ARE SEEING

00:00:49.048 --> 00:00:49.747
REAL IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

00:00:49.748 --> 00:00:51.349
IS THAT OUR VALUES ALIGN.

00:00:51.350 --> 00:00:52.483
WHEN IT COMES TO CLIMATE

00:00:52.484 --> 00:00:53.885
CHANGE, WHEN IT COMES TO

00:00:53.886 --> 00:00:54.185
JOBS.

00:00:54.186 --> 00:00:55.687
WHEN IT COMES TO GUN REFORMS

00:00:55.688 --> 00:00:57.055
HOW TO GET THERE WE MIGHT

00:00:57.056 --> 00:00:58.256
HAVE DIFFERING OPINIONS BUT

00:00:58.257 --> 00:00:59.791
THAT IS WHY YOU ARE GOING TO

00:00:59.792 --> 00:01:02.594
HAVE A ROBUST PRESIDENTIAL

00:01:02.595 --> 00:01:03.027
ELECTION.

00:01:03.028 --> 00:01:03.661
>> Bill: WE ARE GOING TO

00:01:03.662 --> 00:01:04.696
HAVE THIS NATIONAL DEBATE.

00:01:04.697 --> 00:01:05.964
I LOOK VERY MUCH FORWARD TO

00:01:05.965 --> 00:01:07.432
IT AS YOU DO AS WELL.

00:01:07.433 --> 00:01:08.399
WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT GOING ON

00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:09.000
THE RECORD.

00:01:09.001 --> 00:01:10.268
THERE IS A REAL GOOD CHANCE

00:01:10.269 --> 00:01:11.236
TO DO THAT IN THE SENATE

00:01:11.237 --> 00:01:12.337
RIGHT NOW.

00:01:12.338 --> 00:01:13.404
AND MITCH McCONNELL SAID

00:01:13.405 --> 00:01:14.739
LET'S GO AHEAD AND VOTE FOR

00:01:14.740 --> 00:01:15.773
IT AND CHUCK SCHUMER CALLS

00:01:15.774 --> 00:01:17.108
THAT A POLITICAL STUNT.

00:01:17.109 --> 00:01:18.343
>> DO YOU SEE IT AS A

00:01:18.344 --> 00:01:19.477
POLITICAL STUNT IF YOU

00:01:19.478 --> 00:01:20.712
REALLY BELIEVE IN IT?

00:01:20.713 --> 00:01:23.147
>> WELL, I ACTUALLY DO THINK

00:01:23.148 --> 00:01:24.315
IT'S A POLITICAL STUNT FOR

00:01:24.316 --> 00:01:25.350
MITCH McCONNELL.

00:01:25.351 --> 00:01:26.317
FRANKLY, BRING IT ON.

00:01:26.318 --> 00:01:27.252
LET'S HAVE A VOTE.

00:01:27.253 --> 00:01:28.319
AT THIS POINT I WOULD LIKE

00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:30.321
TO SEE REPUBLICANS TAKE A

00:01:30.322 --> 00:01:31.322
STANCE ON THIS.

00:01:31.323 --> 00:01:32.724
>> Bill: I HEAR THE PASSION

00:01:32.725 --> 00:01:34.325
YOU HAVE FOR THE IDEA.

00:01:34.326 --> 00:01:35.627
AND YOUR FIRST ANSWER BUT

00:01:35.628 --> 00:01:36.694
NOW YOU ARE CALLING IT A

00:01:36.695 --> 00:01:36.995
STUNT.

00:01:36.996 --> 00:01:38.129
WHY NOT GO ON RECORD AND

00:01:38.130 --> 00:01:39.030
STAND ON IT?

00:01:39.031 --> 00:01:41.099
>> BECAUSE REPUBLICANS HAVE

00:01:41.100 --> 00:01:42.233
LED ON CLIMATE CHANGE.

00:01:42.234 --> 00:01:43.835
AND SO IT'S FUNNY THAT ALL

00:01:43.836 --> 00:01:45.603
OF A SUDDEN MITCH

00:01:45.604 --> 00:01:46.504
MCCONNELL CARES ABOUT

00:01:46.505 --> 00:01:47.705
CLIMATE CHANGE BUT YOU KNOW

00:01:47.706 --> 00:01:48.006
WHAT?

00:01:48.007 --> 00:01:49.741
IF HE CARES ABOUT IT THEN

00:01:49.742 --> 00:01:52.176
BRING IT UP FOR A VOTE.

00:01:52.177 --> 00:01:53.444
LET'S DO IT AND SEE WHERE

00:01:53.445 --> 00:01:54.412
REPUBLICANS STAND ON THIS.

00:01:54.413 --> 00:01:55.980
THEY HAVE HAD BOTH CHAMBERS

00:01:55.981 --> 00:01:57.015
OF CONGRESS FOR TWO YEARS

00:01:57.016 --> 00:01:57.949
AND THEY HAVEN'T DONE

00:01:57.950 --> 00:01:58.783
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

00:01:58.784 --> 00:02:00.418
AND SO LET'S HAVE THIS

00:02:00.419 --> 00:02:00.752
DEBATE.

00:02:00.753 --> 00:02:01.219
GO AHEAD.

00:02:01.220 --> 00:02:02.553
WE WILL SEE WHO VOTES FOR IT

00:02:02.554 --> 00:02:04.622
WE ARE HAPPY TO SEE THAT.

00:02:04.623 --> 00:02:05.356
>> Bill: I THINK YOU COULD

00:02:05.357 --> 00:02:06.791
TAKE THAT MESSAGE TO CHUCK

00:02:06.792 --> 00:02:07.125
SCHUMER.

00:02:07.126 --> 00:02:07.859
LET'S SEE WHERE THAT GOES.

00:02:07.860 --> 00:02:08.693
HILLARY CLINTON SAYS SHE IS

00:02:08.694 --> 00:02:09.394
NOT IN.

00:02:09.395 --> 00:02:10.928
AND NOW THERE IS A MESSAGE

00:02:10.929 --> 00:02:11.863
FROM OVERNIGHT THAT SUGGESTS

00:02:11.864 --> 00:02:13.031
THAT SHE REALLY DIDN'T MEAN

00:02:13.032 --> 00:02:14.999
WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT.

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:16.968
MAGGIE HAVERMAN TWEET FOR

00:02:16.969 --> 00:02:17.635
THE "NEW YORK TIMES" SPOKE

00:02:17.636 --> 00:02:18.603
TO SOMEONE CLOSE TO CLINTON

00:02:18.604 --> 00:02:19.637
IN CONTACT WITH HER TODAY

00:02:19.638 --> 00:02:20.371
SHE SENDS OUT.

00:02:20.372 --> 00:02:21.939
THEY SAY SHE WASN'T TRYING

00:02:21.940 --> 00:02:23.608
TO BE EMPHATIC AND CLOSE THE

00:02:23.609 --> 00:02:24.475
DOOR ON RUNNING WHEN SHE

00:02:24.476 --> 00:02:26.177
SPOKE TO A LOCAL REPORTER

00:02:26.178 --> 00:02:27.278
YESTERDAY AND SHE WAS

00:02:27.279 --> 00:02:28.713
SURPRISED BY HOW

00:02:28.714 --> 00:02:30.248
DEFINITIVELY IT PLAYED.

00:02:30.249 --> 00:02:33.484
GOING BACK ON THIS?

00:02:33.485 --> 00:02:34.619
>> I TAKE HILLARY CLINTON

00:02:34.620 --> 00:02:35.486
FOR HER WORD.

00:02:35.487 --> 00:02:36.321
I WILL TELL YOU I HAVE

00:02:36.322 --> 00:02:38.890
WORKED FOR HER TWICE IN 2008

00:02:38.891 --> 00:02:39.691
AND 2016.

00:02:39.692 --> 00:02:40.591
>> Bill: HANG ON A SECOND.

00:02:40.592 --> 00:02:41.959
WHAT'S THE WORD?

00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:43.294
IS SHE OUT OR IN OR STAYING

00:02:43.295 --> 00:02:43.861
IN THE MIDDLE.

00:02:43.862 --> 00:02:45.296
>> SHE STATED SHE IS NOT

00:02:45.297 --> 00:02:46.531
RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN

00:02:46.532 --> 00:02:48.466
2020 AND I TAKE HER FOR HER

00:02:48.467 --> 00:02:48.800
WORD.

00:02:48.801 --> 00:02:49.767
AND WHAT I WAS SAYING IS

00:02:49.768 --> 00:02:51.869
THAT I WORKED FOR HER TWICE.

00:02:51.870 --> 00:02:55.406
SHE IS SOMEONE IS -- SHE IS

00:02:55.407 --> 00:02:56.140
NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

00:02:56.141 --> 00:02:57.275
SHE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT

00:02:57.276 --> 00:02:58.276
FOR THE ISSUES THAT SHE

00:02:58.277 --> 00:02:58.843
CARES ABOUT.

00:02:58.844 --> 00:03:00.578
SHE IS GOING TO WORK TO

00:03:00.579 --> 00:03:01.546
ELECT DEMOCRATS.

00:03:01.547 --> 00:03:02.480
AND I DON'T THINK THAT SHE

00:03:02.481 --> 00:03:03.281
IS GOING ANYWHERE.

00:03:03.282 --> 00:03:05.049
I THINK THAT WHAT HAVE YOU

00:03:05.050 --> 00:03:07.385
SEEN GENERALLY BY

00:03:07.386 --> 00:03:08.319
REPUBLICANS IS THIS

00:03:08.320 --> 00:03:09.220
OBSESSION WITH HER.

00:03:09.221 --> 00:03:11.089
AND IT'S AN OBSESSION

00:03:11.090 --> 00:03:12.323
BECAUSE SHE WAS SUCCESSFUL.

00:03:12.324 --> 00:03:14.192
SHE WAS SUCCESSFUL AS

00:03:14.193 --> 00:03:14.826
SECRETARY OF STATE.

00:03:14.827 --> 00:03:16.461
SHE WAS SUCCESSFUL FIRST

00:03:16.462 --> 00:03:16.761
LADY.

00:03:16.762 --> 00:03:18.029
SHE WON THE MAJORITY OF

00:03:18.030 --> 00:03:21.833
VOTES AND WHEN IT CAME TO

00:03:21.834 --> 00:03:22.333
THE 2016 ELECTION.

00:03:22.334 --> 00:03:23.368
I THINK SHAH SHE WILL

00:03:23.369 --> 00:03:25.002
CONTINUE TO BE AROUND AND

00:03:25.003 --> 00:03:25.970
SOMEONE WHO IS GOING TO

00:03:25.971 --> 00:03:29.273
FIGHT FOR THE ISSUES.

00:03:29.274 --> 00:03:30.174
>> Bill: WOULD YOU REPRESENT

00:03:30.175 --> 00:03:31.409
THE DNC WOULD YOU LIKE TO

00:03:31.410 --> 00:03:33.544
SEE HER RUN OR HAS HER TIME

00:03:33.545 --> 00:03:35.613
PASSED GOING 0 FOR 2 IN THAT

00:03:35.614 --> 00:03:35.880
JOB?

00:03:35.881 --> 00:03:37.048
>> THAT IS UP TO HER.

00:03:37.049 --> 00:03:38.916
AS YOU KNOW, THIS IS A VERY

00:03:38.917 --> 00:03:39.417
PERSONAL DECISION.

00:03:39.418 --> 00:03:41.419
IT'S SOMETHING THAT SHE HAS

00:03:41.420 --> 00:03:42.353
SEEN FIRST HAND.

00:03:42.354 --> 00:03:43.788
IT TAKES A TOLL ON YOUR

00:03:43.789 --> 00:03:44.122
FAMILY.

00:03:44.123 --> 00:03:45.923
IT TAKES A TOLL ON YOU.

00:03:45.924 --> 00:03:47.825
AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS

00:03:47.826 --> 00:03:48.693
EXTREMELY I MEAN, WHEN YOU

00:03:48.694 --> 00:03:50.294
ARE CAMPAIGNING EVERY SINGLE

00:03:50.295 --> 00:03:51.562
DAY, AND PEOPLE ARE THROWING

00:03:51.563 --> 00:03:53.097
STUFF AT YOU EVERY SINGLE

00:03:53.098 --> 00:03:54.332
STUFF, IT'S NOT SOMETHING TO

00:03:54.333 --> 00:03:55.099
TAKE LIGHTLY.

00:03:55.100 --> 00:03:57.735
THIS IS A DECISION THAT IS

00:03:57.736 --> 00:03:59.103
UP TO HER AND I THINK

00:03:59.104 --> 00:04:00.304
EVERYONE SHOULD ALLOW HER TO

00:04:00.305 --> 00:04:02.340
MAKE THAT DECISION WHICH SHE

00:04:02.341 --> 00:04:02.907
SAID YESTERDAY.

00:04:02.908 --> 00:04:04.843
>> Bill: YOU WALKED THAT CAN
