Hi I'm Bill O'Reilly and this is the Talking Points Memo.

The Democrats want the White House. OK so Bernie Sanders is in the race officially. He joins Senator Amy Klobuchar, Senator Elizabeth Warren, Senator Cory Booker, Senator Kamala Harris, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, ex San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard from Hawaii, former West Virginia Senator Richard Ojeda, former Representative John Delaney, Mayor Pete Buttigieg I think he is in Texas. Former tech executive Andrew Yang. A dozen of them with four pending Biden, Bloomberg, Sherrod Brown senator from Ohio and Beto O'Rourke. OK so you got a big crew and you had a big crew running for Republican nomination last time, remember that.

Now I don't want you to overconfident about this because nobody thought Barack Obama would ever get the Democratic nomination become president. Nobody thought Donald Trump would get the Republican nomination become president. So that's two for two. However I think I can safely say that Bernie Sanders has no chance. I mean he just doesn't. The others out of the whole crew I think Kamala Harris because she's get the big money behind her and will do the best of the ones that are in. But I continue to believe that Joe Biden would be the choice of the establishment Democrats.

Now here's what's going on. The party has moved dramatically left. We all know that. And why? Because of the Twitter mob, the Twitter mob controls internet commerce. Controls what the media does on the net. The Twitter mob primarily crazy left wing progressives and on the other side the Twitter mob is far right. These are people you hear from you know people from people who are work in 50 hours a week and raising families, they are not on Twitter mob. These are professional Twitter people. And if you are a moderate Democrat they cut your throat and attack you and slime you and smear you into everything. So the pressure for the Democratic Party is left. Move Left left left left. Now most people that I mentioned their more than happy to move left. They're leftists. They're green new deal people, change the country, the country is rotten. Everything is bad, everything is corrupt, white supremacy capitalism is evil. They're all their way and Trump has got to be overjoyed. Got to be overjoyed with this crew. But I continue to say that the prevailing wisdom that you don't hear about inside the Democratic Party is you've got to get a moderate out there.

Now we'll put Kamala Harris on the second so it will be Biden, Harris because we need to get those progressives off our back and we need to down grade the Twitter mob. And we can do that by Kamala Harris being the VP. Now Biden is going to be 80 years old by the time 2020 rolls around. So you know anything can happen when you're 80 you're at the end of the rainbow. So Kamala Harris is standing there if anything happens to him. Now I do not believe that most Americans, Democrats included want a socialist country and they don't want a Green New Deal. They may think they do but they really don't. When it comes right down to a change their whole lives, everything the way you live the way you eat the way you see your doctor what you drive how you go to visit Aunt Sally in Wisconsin. And when it becomes clear that that's what the Democratic Party wants a Green New Deal changes everything. And that the country would collapse economically if that were ever put into place. Remember 22 trillion dollar debt right now, that would double under the Green New Deal. Everybody's guaranteed a job everybody is guaranteed a nice salary. You can't do it. Currency would collapse everybody lose their life savings. Depression. Hello? Now Congresswoman Ocasio Cortez. She has no blanking clue about any of that. He doesn't know anything. With all due respect she doesn't.

These other people must. They might know better but they're going to say with the Twitter mob wants to hear. So the campaign is underway and the Democrats of 12, remember they're off to raise money. A lot of people run around asking for money. And in the end it all comes down to money. But you can buy TV spots. So out of all of them Kamala Harris senator from California is in the best shape right now, expect Joe Biden to get into the race.
