Everyone needs to watch this. It needs to be repeated often.
Americans are begging for Democratic leadership to get off the mat and back into the fight.
If you’re a political leader in this country and are not prepared to fight with both hands, not prepared to make “good trouble”, then perhaps you should step aside and make space for those who will. #Velshi.

Where is the Party?: time for Democratic leaders to ‘fight with both hands’ or ‘step aside’
Even in easy times, this democracy needs care. And right now it is in dire need of defense. And it needs defenders who are willing to do whatever it takes. Americans are begging for more. Begging for Democrats to get off the mat and back into the fight. If political leaders in this country are not prepared to fight with both hands, and are not prepared to make “good trouble”, then perhaps they should step aside and make space for those who will.

BANKS: Put the veteran first. And that's what President Trump is focused on. That's what I'm focused on.
KEILAR: Does it put veterans first to cut people who work on their benefits or who provide them healthcare?
BANKS: I'm not convinced that's happening
