We Have Weakened The Parties

Barack Obama Did Get A Higher Percentage Of The Vote Than Anybody Has In This Country In 20 Years. I Mean, It Was A Resounding Victory. I Mean, Whether His Core Constituency Was 20 Percent Or What, His Electoral Constituency, Which Is How We Measure Elections, Was 53 Percent, Which Was, You Know, Historically High, The Highest Of Any Democrat, Other Than Franklin Roosevelt And Lyndon Johnson.

Everyone Has To Take Donald Trump Seriously, And I Think That's What We're Seeing.

Kevin Mccarthy, Who Is The House Majority Leader, Was Pretty Open. He Went Out And Recruited Candidates. And The Republicans In The House Have Paid A Price For It Ever Since, Because They Cannot Pass Anything Comprehensive Or Real Because Of The Freedom Caucus, Which Is The Child, The Product, The Progeny Of The Tea Party.

I Think The Democrats Did A Terrible Disservice, The Hillary Clinton Campaign Did, To Tim Kaine. Tim Kaine Had The Earned Reputation Of Being One Of The Most Respected And Well-liked, And Not Cheap Partisan Members Of The United States Senate. And They Turned Him Into An Attack Dog.

Americans Don't Like The Way Washington Operates. They Don't Like Washington. They Don't Like The Way Things Are Going.
