"He says he's in charge. And I suspect, he may be," Pelosi says on Trump. "I don't think any responsible assistant to the president of the United States would have advised him to do what he did yesterday."

.@RepSwalwell on Obama: "When he engages in the general, it will be like tagging Hulk Hogan into the ring.He is the best force we’ve got to assist our nominee.”
So why not talk about Obama more on the 2020 trail?
“I’m running a campaign about the future.”

meanwhile, Obama is still deep in the writing process for his book - it's taking longer than expected, but he's occasionally pointed out to people that while Michelle Obama used a ghostwriter, he's writing it himself

Bullock, on how he'd succeed in working with Republicans where Obama failed: “It’s presumptuous of me to compare myself to how any president did.” Then: “I enjoy the interaction with people. I enjoy the interaction with people I even disagree with.”

Biden's constant invocation of Obama has raised the question for the rest of the field of how to talk about him. Among the responses - when I asked Harris if she's heir to the Obama legacy, she spoke warmly of him but said, “I have my own legacy."

NEW from me - Barack Obama is literally more popular than Jesus among Democrats. But neither the former president nor any of the party’s 23 candidates currently seeking the 2020 nomination know quite what to do with that. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

The best part might be the response from WY Sen. John Barrasso, who once demanded a GAO review of an Obama golf trip: “I haven’t followed that at all.” twitter.com/lpolgreen/stat…

After running through voter suppression bills in states, Abrams says "there is a solution. It is not every Democrat running for president."
After the crowd's laughter dies down, Abrams clarifies: "That is also not an announcement."

"I’m making the case," O'Rourke says, that Trump's language attacking minorities and stoking division "does not just offend our ears and sensibilities, he makes possible the acts of hatred and intolerance we see play out in this country every day"

immigration was always central for O'Rourke. 3 months into run, he's asked for specific plan on immigration. What he says: end family separation, protect Dreamers,create path to citizenship,match visa quotas to labor demands. "Let’s rewrite our immigration laws in our own image."
