bill weld was one of those principled republicans. he was a young lawyer working on a congressional committee with another young lawyer named hillary clinton when bill weld later went to work in the reagan justice department, he took a principled stand against the republican attorney general ed meese and bill weld resigned in protest, which then forced the republican attorney general to resign. bill weld went on to serve two terms as a republican governor of massachusetts. he is now the only republican running against donald trump for president. he will join us tonight on a night when the president is trying to turn back the presidential clock to the nixon presidency and stonewall the congress. and at the end of the hour tonight, we have a special guest joining us who has not been with us before. he will respond to jared kushner's statement today that the russian attack on our election that helped donald trump win the electoral college was nothing more than a couple of facebook ads. we'll be joined by robert anderson, who will be maki

this is bill weld. just tonight, we'll talk about it on the other side. >> i think a lot of permanent damage is being done to our country. if nothing changes, the arc of the last two years, if we have six more years of spending ourselves into bankruptcy without a thought about it and insulting our allies and eroding our military alliances abroad and cozying up to dictators and insulting everyone who is part of our lattice work of defense, there is no limit to the damage that can be done. >> so, bill crystal, a couple points here. 73 years old, last won a political race 25 years ago during the clinton administration. those points, if you close your eyes, were points a traditional republican used to make before the era of trump. would he have been the republican you would have drafted to primary the president, or does he open the door and say, come on in, the water's fine, you can survive this? >> he jumped in the cold water and i think he would expect that if the water does get a little finer, if it -- h

. >> i am bill weld and i approve this message. host: bill weld the only declared candidate so far. as we said, larry hogan, the current governor of maryland along with larry kasich are thinking about challenging the president. here is how the trump 2020 campaign press secretary responded to weld's primary challenge. [video clip] >> how seriously is the president's campaign taking a challenge by build weld -- will weld? >> not seriously at all. the national committee said there is no primary challenge, they support president trump and what they are saying is reflecting what will probably can voters have told us, president trump has the highest own party approval ratings with one exception, president bush during 9/11. our voters have sent a pretty clear message they stand with the president. the rnc has reflected that. we are unconcerned. >> the rnc and the president are not even entertaining an idea of a primary debate? >> not at all. we are focused on the democrats and the running of socialism we see on the horizon. host: republicans only, do you support a primary challenge to the

bill weld notwithstanding. and they are going to renominate donald trump and they are going to run donald trump and run behind donald trump on the agenda of a man who believes that robert lee is a great hero. of a man who believes that there were fine people on both sides in charlottesville. and you know, as vice president biden said this is a battle for the soul of america. it is a battle for the soul of america. we're going to have to make a decision as a country as to which side we're on. we know what side donald trump's on. we know what side his supporters are on that line up behind this agenda and we need to make it clear what side the majority of the american people are on. >> we're going to leave it there. before we do, let me make one point about bill weld and the reason i keep bringing him back into these conversations. history shows that when a president is challenged from within his own party, in the primaries, if that challenger stays in the racist just beyond new hampshire, that president will lose

>> bill weld called me, just before he announced. at a great conversation with him. i wish him well and i encouraged him and thanked him for being willing to step up and run. he is a wonderful governor of massachusetts. look, i happen to believe, if you are supportive of the president, having to believe, that debate and discussion, talking about the issues is good. i think having the ability to have different viewpoints is good. that's why the stifling of debate, and cutting off any discussion is bad. it could make him a stronger candidate. if other people are waiting for the fall to see who will run, that would be the case. i think that the more the merrier. if 20 people are on the democratic side, and we will be hearing about that for the next year and a half, or at least until they's flexibility in august of next year. we have nobody on the other side. i want to thank bill weld for stepping up. i think others ought to consider it as well. i am very concerned, in maryland, we won the very blue state. we won because i won suburban women overwhelmingly. i got one thi

yesterday bill weld announced he was challenge president trump in the republican presidential primary in 2020. he also went out of his way to announce that the fisher cat will be his mascot, his guiding spirit in this endeavor. he told the "boston globe," "people are usually like, what's a fisher cat? but they don't realize how ferocious they can be. sort of like me and this campaign." the last time a sitting president faced a primary challenge was 1992. the last time bill weld ran for office was 2016 as gary johnson's vice presidential candidate on the libertarian ticket. this should be interesting. i also want you to know that bill weld is standing by to talk to my friend lawrence o'donnell this hour. so don't go anywhere. we'll see you again tomorrow. now it's time for "the last word" with lawrence o'donnell. good

could bill weld be president trump's pat buchanan. let me ask him. bill weld joining us now. welcome, governor. >> hi, s.e. >> i want to get back to what you said recently. you said the mueller report paints the president as a one-man crime wave. you've also said you plan to run a ferocious campaign. does that mean you will make trump the center piece of your presidential campaign? >> no. i think what i want to do is going to be the center piece of my campaign and the issues will be spending. i was rated the most fiscally conservative governor in the office. the president hasn't vetoed a dime of spending. number two is jobs and wages. all of the jobs that are abouti by saying he wants the future to be coal and oil. and then some more general issues. lying is almost a default position for the president. five would be a free press. the president says we don't need a free press. that's just an autocrat talking. six, in some ways the most important to me, as a former long-time prosecutor in the ragan administration is the rule of law, and the president's made it very plain that h

bill weld will run, it won't take an effort. if governor casey gets in, if senator jeff flake gets in, there's something interesting to debate. this is somebody looking for attention himself. >> harris: and confuse, i thought it was libertarian. >> brian: who asked him to run? >> lisa: blah, blah, blah, who cares about bill weld? he's a nonfactor, nobody cares about him. he's irrelevant to 2020 brit almost 90% of republicans are behind president trump. he will be the nominee. republicans need to get behind him or they will end up with someone like bernie sanders. going back to 2016, i can't pick up a single candidate that ran that could have pulled together a coalition that president trump did. >> jessica: i don't think it will make much of a difference in terms of the race paid what he's trying to do is say to disaffected republicans, moderates, independents, some of them to have a far-left-leaning candidate. there's a place for you. i don't think that president trump is the right man for this, and we should have an open dialog

bill weld got into the race. people are not taking him seriously. there is larry hogan, a two-term maryland governor. he won very handily in a blue state last year. where do you come down on the primary challenger? and the president's reelection chances? mr. reed: my read of it is there is no market out there at all for a primary opponent to the president. it is a free country, and if somebody wants to run, they are certainly able to do so. and bill weld has already jumped in, and i know there are others that are looking at it. but i think -- i believe it was a recent survey that showed the president with a 93% job approval rate among republicans. that is one of the higher numbers. but even some of the other media polls have his job approval among republicans as 83% or 80%. -- somewhere between 83% and 88%. those are historically very high numbers. some of them are unprecedented numbers. i mean, i go back to the reagan campaigns of the 1980's. i worked for george w. bush's original campaign in 2000, and worked on his reelection in 2004. when i was w

[ laughter ] lauren: you're laughing. >> i think it's a pretty big joke. there's no way he will beat the president. president trump is very popular within the republican party. on the issues that are most important to republicans, bill weld isn't even there. he's not pro life. how can he expect to win a republican primary when he isn't pro life. i think it's a pretty big joke. lauren: as we look at the fund raising numbers, looking at bernie sanders, ba beto, buttig, together they've raised barely more than president trump. i wanted to show the

bill weld was a well-respected governor, has a strong legal background. unfortunately, never hosted a reality casino, never got his head stuck in a bucket of fried chicken during sex. and if you don't remember gary johnson, this is gary johnson. >> i was going to go through the whole debate and not say anything. >> jimmy: oh, geez, i don't know why they broke up. he was very presidential. now we have two republicans, including trump and 9,000 democrats in the race. so far, the democrats are off to a slow start money wise. since the first of the year, all the democratic candidates combined have only raised $75 million. donald trump's campaign alone during that time raised more than $30 million. bernie sanders has raised the most money so far, $18.2 million. zero of which has been spent on personal grooming. that's all, but now we have a new name in the mix, a businessman named andrew yang. do you know andrew yang? i've not heard of andrew yang, but after seeing this video from his rally in d.c., i'm intrigued. >> i want to prepare us for the true challenge

weld's even win as single state. there you have it. >> maybe you should just get your credit card ready. just saying. because i know everybody is googling best restaurant in new york city. let's talk about these tax returns from bernie sanders. it's showing, in fact, that he's part of the 1% which he has certainly harped on in the past. does this potentially hurt his message going forward or has he really owned this transition in his life? >> i think this is like a two day story at most. the biggest pressure was questions about why he was not releasing his returns in the first place, which had been kind of dog him for the last couple of years. and also he has -- he definitely has a taste for the high life. ash few weeks ago i reported how the clinton campaign paid for private jets when he was a surrogate on the 2016 campaign. he used those private jets a number of other times when he was campaigning even when there was no serious election coming down the pike. and so i think that people will still define bernie sande

bill weld right now is the only one that's running. and then the other one -- this is timely, is larry hogan. the governor of maryland. and governor hogan was in new hampshire yesterday and is making increasingly interested noises about possibly doing this. and i think if he does get in, this will become instantly a lot more interesting. >> what do you make of or what does your reporting tell you about hogan's renewed interest in this. i know there were chatter a few weeks or months ago, but it seemed to fate away. what changed in the last couple of weeks? >> i think a couple of things. yes, he was in iowa. that's not a coincidence. he would say he was involved in the national governors association and they have some kind of workshop there so he went. >> the turtle doesn't get on the fence post by itself. i think that was bill clinton. >> exactly. and it happened to be in new hampshire yesterday. i think the mueller report should not be underestimated. when i talked to him after deadline which was two days ago, he mentioned that he was

bill weld is the longest of long shots. there is some bombshell that were to come out of the mueller reports, that is still waiting to be released, i think maybe then you would have a small opening for a republican. but right now i think it's very daunting. a republican support for president trump -- >> harris: don't you need a republican? >> well, yeah. there might be another republican but he's getting in. he's the first want to challenge the president. we can't predict the future, we don't know what will happen. >> harris: do you think others will follow, like jeff flake or those who challenged president trump? >> i don't. john kasich has already taken a job with another network. jeff flake didn't seem to want to stand up to the president when he was in the senate. it's hard for me to see how he'd run a national campaign against donald trump. i think it's very hard to beat him in their public and primary. >> harris: a lot of people miss just how far north jeff flake voted with the policies of president trump even though
