Pete Blasts Trump Administration, Live on CNN

Published | Video Starts at 07:31

The really incredible thing to me was you could hear it in that crowd. There were hundreds of people there. This is in Northwest Georgia, again, extremely conservative area. I'm told that was about twice as many people as came to see President Trump himself when he was there just a few weeks ago. So what that tells me is there's a different kind of coalition coming together right now, Democrats, independents, lots of people who normally vote Republican, who agree that we need balanced government, we need some kind of check on this reckless, out of control administration.
