please welcome tom steyer. welcome. so great to have you here in iowa. >> nice to see you. >> all right, so we get to the questions. >> let's go. >> let's begin with david. he is a retired school superintendent from pleasantville, iowa. what would you like to ask mr. steyer? >> if the ultimate and ideal outcome in 2020 is to defeat donald trump at the ballot box, why should not all money, time and energy go toward that end from now until the election rather than towards impeachment proceedings that will leave him in office? >> well, david, i started the need to impeach movement over two years ago to try and raise the voice of the american people. i thought we had the most corrupt president in history. i thought it was important as a matter of right and wrong that he be held to the same law that everyone else is held to. i've been pushing for the american people and 8 million people signed our petition to get to hear what he's done on televised hearings so we can decide right from wrong. >> i really look at this as it is

he's second in spends, spending only second to tom steyer and getting immediate pushback from some of the fellow democrats. here is a little bit of that. >> we do not believe that billionaires have the right to buy elections. >> michael bloomberg is making a bet about democracy in 2020. he doesn't need people, he only needs bags and bags of money. >> i don't get getting into the race with your spokesperson saying you're getting in because you don't like the rest of the candidates. >> is his biggest hurdle at this point his money? >> i don't think you could say that. the only reason we're talking about him is viable is his money. the fact that the guy has more than $50 billion. when this was first bandied about several months ago alongside tom steyer and the gentleman from starbucks -- >> howard schultz. >> that shows how well his came went. and you have to stop and ask yourself is an older white man who is wealthy who democrats want to pick. i don't think the answer to that has suddenly become yet. i any he's making a conscious choice by not taking donations he is not on the debate st

one of steyer's top aides was just caught trying to pay people to endorse tom steyer. fox news trace gallagher has that amazing story. hey, trace. >> hey, tucker. it's not illegal to pay people to endorse you as long as the payments are disclosed. but analysts stay wreaks of desperation, especially considering the associated press, which broke this story, could not find anyone who accepted the tom steyer deal. of course, it also reignites the criticism that tom steyer is trying to buy his way into the white house. apparently steyer's top advisor, former iowa house speaker pat murphy is the one who reached out various iowa lawmakers. and lawmakers reportedly were surprised that steyer would think that he could buy their support. pat murphy, who has since resigned from the campaign, says it was a, quote, miscommunication. tom steyer denies the offers were ever made, when is interesting because several iowa lawmakers have already admitted on the record they did, in fact, receive the propositions. tucker? >> tucker: it couldn't pay for an endorsement. he is very concerned

david: this is tom steyer, presidential candidate. disclosure, michael bloomberg is the founder and majority owner of bloomberg tv. he says he has not made a decision on whether to run for president at this time. this is "balance of power" on bloomberg television and radio. david: this is "balance of power" on bloomberg television and radio. i'm david westin. china's president xi jinping is calling for an and to the violence in hong kong, saying restored order in the city is urgent. his comments come after the violent protests have closed public schools and have forced some company to tell employees to stay at home. the global times newspaper earlier deleted a tweet where it reported the hong kong government was expected to announce a curfew. joining us now for more is the host of daybreak asia, shery ahn. you know the story so well. what are you watching? shery: what beijing can do next. the key question is what can they do if the violence keeps escalating? we have heard from xi jinping commenting during his trip in brazil, saying th

please welcome tom steyer! ( cheers and applause ) >> thank you for having me. >> trevor: thank you for being here. ( cheers and applause ) welcome to the show! >> thank you very much! >> trevor: and welcome to the democratic primaries. as a billionaire, your net worth is public, so you're worth $1.6 billion, reportedly. bloomberg is considering entering the race, and i see here he is worth an estimated 52 billion. does that make you feel broke? ( laughter ) >> what i've said is, if mr. bloomberg wants to be the democratic representative in the presidential election, then he should do what i did a year ago, which is to say we need a wealth tax to overcome some of the inequity that's grown in this country over the last four decades. if he wants to represent the democrats in this country -- ( cheers and applause ) -- he's got to step up to the reality of what's been happening in this country and be on the right side. >> trevor: so are you saying that you would be for an idea like elizabeth warren has been proposi

for the cnn town hall with tom steyer from iowa. this week, the stakes rise dramatically as the impeach. inquiry moves out in if you believe public for all oof of america to see. we'll answer your questions when we come back. tom: the american people can fix anything. the problem is corporations and the people who run and own them have purchased our democracy. here's the difference between me and the other candidates. i don't think we can fix our democracy from the inside. i don't believe washington politicians and big corporations will let that happen. the only way we can make change happen is from the outside. for me, this comes down to whether you trust the politicians or the people. and if you say you trust the people, are you willing to stand up to the insiders and the big corporations, and give the people the tools they need to fix our democracy. a national referendum. term limits. eliminating corporate money in politics. making it easy to vote. i trust the people. and as president, i will give you tools we need to fix our dem

you're there gearing up for businessman tom steyer. he has spent $35 million already on tv and radio. that's more than $25 million more than the next candidate and yet he's polling at 1% nationally. what do you think his message will be tonight to try to rally his campaign? >> reporter: i think this is a big opportunity for tom steyer to come in here, interact with voters one on one, listen to their concerns and be on display in a national cnn prime time kind of forum about how he handles and addresses each of those concerns. i think the goal here is for him to be somebody other than just the man they see on their television screens in all that paid advertising that just bombards the air waves here in iowa. this is his opportunity to really give the voters something they could envision him as president sitting in the oval office. that's the task ahead of him tonight. >> do you think he'll have to address the recent controversy of two of his staffers allegedly involve ed involved in questionable campaign activities? >> reporter: one of

i think i see less than 2%, and we have tom steyer in the race and he's a billionaire and trump himself is a billionaire and howard schulz is a billionaire and dropped out -- >> the percentage of billionaires is pretty high. >> it's not high, but you get my point. out of 600 you have four you can name. what do you say, joe? is this a colossal waste of money and time? is this, you know, i don't know, an ego move? what is this? why now? >> i don't disagree completely with keith's thesis. i think it is very, very difficult with seeing him getting the nomation and there's been a mischaracterization of what the democratic base is that it somehow is ultra progressive and the democratic base is fairly moderate and that's why we won the midterms in 2018 to african-americans, it's women and not just women with college educations. so you know, there is a constituency there. and i just don't see bloomberg being able to capture that. i think he very much wants to be president and i think he might be a good president and he just doesn't want to go through the process of getting elected. >> that kind

i will tell you clearly this is going to be a challenge not just for him but also tom steyer that it appears being a billionaire can be a bless and ing and a cu. the blessing is you can pretty well decide off your resourcing that you can arrange for president of the united states at almost any point during the process. the curse, however, is that most people don't want to feel what bernie sanders just sort of articulated, which is that they are for sale and that their votes can be bought, necessarily. i will say i do think both indicates to steyer and bloomberg, they've got a resume of support of getting involved and championing issues, whether it's climate change or gun reform that will give them a little bit of heft and an opportunity to advocate for an issue and really put your money where your mouth is and try to achieve world change on those issues. >> andrew, it's not meant literally that they would be paying for votes, because it's not like they're actually handing out dollar bills. it really means they have no money perhaps to finance themselves, their teams, hotel, you know,

so not the best week for tom steyer's campaign. of course, after we've seen lots and lots of criticism from various kacandidates. and i think lots of candidates are wanting to be on that -- that national stage. so that's kind of the status of where we're at with the steyer campaign here. >> good to see you, my friend. mara in des moines, iowa for us. at the start of the hour, we got transcripts. remember, kent is a career official at the state department serving as deputy assistant secretary who expressed concerns with the administration's ukraine policy. he said he told a co-worker who was asking about the situation this, quote, if you're asking me, have we ever gone to the ukrainians and asked them to investigate or prosecute individuals for political reasons? the answer is, i hope we haven't and we shouldn't because that goes against everything that we are trying to promote in post-soviet states for the last 28 years, which is promotion of the rule of law. end quote. back with me now, nbc's garrett haake who has been digging thr

no other candidate, not even tom steyer, who is a billionaire, can maybe do that so quickly. it is almost pocket change for bloomberg. we haven'tve a name mentioned yet, joe biden. what is his campaign machine like up there, and his appearance is so far? biden probably is one of the top four campaigns in new hampshire, smaller than what sanders and warren have on the ground here, but a formidable machine. takenl the punches he has , he remains one of the top-tier candidates here. his events here are smaller than once you will see from pete buttigieg are a warren or a sanders, but he has a steady stream of support here. biden, it is not like south carolina, where he is the favorite. but he is definitely a top contender in new hampshire. host: paul steinhauser for "the concord, monitor" political reporter covering it all, we appreciate your update. ♪ " playing]rry love while we are waiting for the arrival of democratic presidential candidate senator elizabeth warren at this town hall event in new hampshire, she will be meeting with voters and answering their questions. this i

tom steyer joins me from las vegas. welcome, mr. steyer. thank you so much for joining me. >> alex, please call me tom. >> tom, i have seen a lot of these ads, as have many people all across the country. i want to ask you about some of the criticism that was highlighted in a recent report in "political co-." says that members of your own staff in new hampshire have privately acknowledged that the volume of ads across -- across the state on tv has gone overboard. they quote a new hampshire media analysts saying there is a point of no return in terms of visibility, at some point you become the uninvited guest. he uniquely is becoming dangerously close. tom, how worried are you about burning people out? >> well, alex, my whole goal in this is simply to get across the message that corporations have bought our democracy, that it isn't working for the people of the united states, and that if we're going to get any of the progressive policies we want, we're going to have to take back the government. and so i believe that that message will stand or

. >> tom steyer is chump change. >> single digit billionaire. >> with the exception of tom steyer, everybody else besides again the lefty candidates needs to do very well in those early states in order to have the financial support to compete in the really big expensive supertuesday states like california and texas. we know bernie sanders will have the resources to do that. looks very much like sanders will is the resources to do that. if you are a joe biden, it's tough to compete in california if you haven't done well in the early states and texas as well. if you're michael bloomberg, you look to do something in new hampshire to not embarrass yourself in the early states. then you do have the money to make a big bet on super tuesday. >> how much money? let's put it up. >> can't get enough of this graphic. so we're talking about the wars between the billionaires. bloomberg, $52 billion. versus trump's net worth of $3.1 billion. we have not heard yet from president trump on bloomberg's news. i'm sure we will get a tweet imminently. what does that graphic do to president trump? >> i think for

i think tom steyer's answer to homelessness and housing was in resetting housing project for poor people, did not help. cory booker had a nuanced plan. kamala harris, they did outstanding in the debate. joe biden did well by just holding firm. in the lead, he did not do anything to put himself back. there were no big faux pas', blunders. i think all of them had been a good nights. >> shannon: interesting that mere that mayor pete buttigieg, who's had a lot of questions about why he's not building minority support, doesn't poll well, does not do with that community come i thought he had an interesting answer, saying, i can ever understand the discrimination at another community has gone through but in all my experience as a gay man, people who do not share my attributes brought with me and i can fight with other people even if i'm not a part of the community. at that there was an interesting take because he's had some problems with the race issue. >> as a resident atlantean, who went to school there, who worked for a civil rights organization, the studios right there in the west end, that
