WEBVTT

00:08.776 --> 00:11.778
>>> LIZ CHENEY’S FATHER SERVED

00:11.779 --> 00:12.715
>>> LIZ CHENEY’S FATHER SERVED

00:12.717 --> 00:14.581
AS VICE PRESIDENT OF THE

00:14.592 --> 00:16.458
PRESIDENT WHO WAS ALSO THE 46th

00:16.469 --> 00:18.115
GOVERNOR OF TEXAS, GEORGE W.

00:18.126 --> 00:19.771
BUSH AND IT IS THE TEXAS

00:19.772 --> 00:21.382
REPUBLICANS WHO SUPPORTED THAT

00:21.416 --> 00:23.078
GOVERNOR THAT LIZ CHENEY IS

00:23.089 --> 00:24.699
APPEALING TO NOW.

00:24.710 --> 00:26.297
BUT NOT JUST IN THE

00:26.308 --> 00:27.031
PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

00:27.066 --> 00:28.521
EXCUSE ME.

00:28.532 --> 00:30.367
LIZ CHENEY HAS ENDORSED EXACTLY

00:30.378 --> 00:32.051
ONE SENATE CAMPAIGN.

00:32.085 --> 00:33.725
OUR NEXT GUEST, CONGRESSMAN

00:33.736 --> 00:36.370
COLIN ALLRED, WHO IS RUNNING

00:36.381 --> 00:37.895
AGAINST  TED CRUZ.

00:37.906 --> 00:39.960
>> I SERVED WITH HIM AND KNOW

00:39.994 --> 00:40.329
HIM.

00:40.340 --> 00:41.648
I KNOW WHAT KIND OF CONGRESSMAN

00:41.682 --> 00:42.577
HE HAS BEEN.

00:42.588 --> 00:46.807
AS YOU SAID WE WERE ON OPPOSITE

00:46.809 --> 00:48.446
SIDES OF ISSUES AND OPPOSITE

00:48.457 --> 00:49.498
SIDES OF THE AISLE.

00:49.500 --> 00:50.385
NOT EVERY ISSUE ON OPPOSITE

00:50.396 --> 00:51.423
SIDES.

00:51.457 --> 00:54.802
I HAVE ALSO KNOWN TED CRUZ FOR

00:54.813 --> 00:56.804
OVER 20 YEARS AND I KNOW HE

00:56.805 --> 00:58.278
WILL SAY ANYTHING IF IT SERVES

00:58.312 --> 00:59.497
HIS POLITICAL PURPOSE AND THE

00:59.498 --> 01:01.771
NATION IS AT A MOMENT WHERE WE

01:01.782 --> 01:03.020
NEED PUBLIC SERVANTS WHO ARE

01:03.021 --> 01:05.155
MEN AND WOMEN OF GOODWILL, WHO

01:05.189 --> 01:06.726
ARE MEN AND WOMEN WHO WILL DO

01:06.737 --> 01:07.772
THE RIGHT THING.

01:07.773 --> 01:09.720
WE NEED SERIOUS PEOPLE IN

01:09.731 --> 01:11.452
OFFICE AND THE CHOICE FOR THE

01:11.463 --> 01:13.167
PEOPLE OF TEXAS IS A VERY CLEAR

01:13.201 --> 01:15.423
ONE AND IN THIS RACE I WANT TO

01:15.434 --> 01:17.299
DO WHAT I CAN TO ENSURE THE

01:17.310 --> 01:19.252
PEOPLE OF TEXAS ELECT COLIN

01:19.286 --> 01:19.789
ALLRED.

01:19.800 --> 01:22.023
>> THE LATEST POLL HAS

01:22.034 --> 01:26.438
CONGRESSMAN ALLRED AT 42% AND

01:26.449 --> 01:28.590
SENATOR TED CRUZ AT 47%.

01:28.601 --> 01:30.217
A RACE THAT IS EFFECTIVELY TIED

01:30.218 --> 01:31.744
IN THE MARGIN OF ERROR.

01:31.745 --> 01:35.442
THAT LEAVES 11% OF THE VOTE

01:35.453 --> 01:37.162
AVAILABLE AND WHEN AN INCUMBENT

01:37.173 --> 01:38.477
IS POLLING BELOW 50%, THAT

01:38.478 --> 01:39.759
INCUMBENT IS IN TROUBLE,

01:39.761 --> 01:42.803
BECAUSE HISTORICALLY MORE OF

01:42.804 --> 01:44.724
THE UNDECIDEDS TEND TO BREAK

01:44.735 --> 01:45.845
FOR THE NEW CANDIDATE.

01:45.880 --> 01:47.699
JOINING US NOW IS CONGRESSMAN

01:47.700 --> 01:49.207
COLIN ALLRED,  THE DEMOCRATIC

01:49.208 --> 01:51.779
SENATE NOMINEE IN TEXAS.

01:51.790 --> 01:53.159
CONGRESSMAN, WELCOME TO "THE

01:53.170 --> 01:54.019
LAST WORD".

01:54.021 --> 01:57.138
TELL US HOW DID THIS

01:57.139 --> 01:58.526
ENDORSEMENT  COME ABOUT?

01:58.527 --> 02:00.747
WHO REACHED OUT FIRST?

02:00.748 --> 02:02.871
>> LIZ AND I STAYED IN TOUCH.

02:02.882 --> 02:03.916
SHE IS A FRIEND.

02:03.917 --> 02:05.739
WE SERVED TOGETHER BUT SHE IS

02:05.750 --> 02:06.785
FUNDAMENTALLY A PATRIOT AND

02:06.819 --> 02:08.950
FROM JANUARY 6 FORWARD SHE HAS

02:08.961 --> 02:10.789
BEEN SO CONSISTENT AND HAS DONE

02:10.790 --> 02:11.647
SOMETHING UNIQUE IN AMERICAN

02:11.658 --> 02:12.460
POLITICS.

02:12.495 --> 02:14.466
PUTTING COUNTRY OVER PARTY AND

02:14.477 --> 02:17.160
COUNTRY OVER SELF-INTEREST AND

02:17.195 --> 02:19.336
SHE ALSO KNOWS THAT TED CRUZ

02:19.338 --> 02:20.781
WAS THE ARCHITECT OF AN ATTEMPT

02:20.792 --> 02:21.623
TO OVERTURN THE LAST

02:21.634 --> 02:23.108
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

02:23.119 --> 02:25.704
IN ADDITION TO BEING FRIENDS AND

02:25.738 --> 02:27.205
KNOWING HOW WE WORK TOGETHER,

02:27.216 --> 02:28.855
SHE ALSO KNOWS WHAT A DANGER HE

02:28.866 --> 02:29.216
IS.

02:29.250 --> 02:31.157
THAT IS WHY I AM PROUD TO HAVE

02:31.168 --> 02:33.347
HER SUPPORT AND I WANT EVERY

02:33.348 --> 02:34.664
CONSERVATIVE TO KNOW THEY CAN

02:34.699 --> 02:36.233
BE PART OF OUR COALITION.

02:36.244 --> 02:38.875
>> LET’S LISTEN TO MORE OF WHAT

02:38.876 --> 02:39.873
FORMER CONGRESSMAN LIZ CHENEY

02:39.884 --> 02:40.484
HAD TO SAY.

02:40.495 --> 02:40.872
WATCH.

02:40.906 --> 02:43.879
>> WHEN I WATCH THE KINDS OF

02:43.881 --> 02:45.597
THINGS WE SAW TED CRUZ DO AFTER

02:45.608 --> 02:46.603
THE 2020 ELECTION IN

02:46.638 --> 02:48.720
PARTICULAR, HIS WILLINGNESS TO

02:48.731 --> 02:50.958
DO WHATEVER DONALD TRUMP WANTED

02:50.960 --> 02:52.722
HIM TO DO INCLUDING PROPOSING

02:52.723 --> 02:55.849
THIS COMPLETELY

02:55.860 --> 02:57.671
UNCONSTITUTIONAL PLAN THAT

02:57.672 --> 02:59.311
WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN THROWING

02:59.322 --> 03:00.604
OUT ELECTORAL VOTES, THROWING

03:00.615 --> 03:01.939
OUT THE VOTES OF MILLIONS OF

03:01.974 --> 03:02.442
AMERICANS.

03:02.444 --> 03:06.117
SOMETHING THAT, AS I SAID, WAS

03:06.128 --> 03:07.538
UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND TED CRUZ

03:07.549 --> 03:09.083
WAS ONE OF THE LEADERS OF THAT

03:09.094 --> 03:10.248
IN THE SENATE.

03:10.282 --> 03:11.139
THAT IS DANGEROUS.

03:11.150 --> 03:12.023
>> CONGRESSMAN, THIS SOUNDS

03:12.058 --> 03:15.690
PERSONAL TO LIZ CHENEY.

03:15.701 --> 03:18.350
DO YOU FEEL LIKE THAT MESSAGE

03:18.385 --> 03:19.456
IS RESONATING WITH TEXAS

03:19.467 --> 03:19.894
VOTERS?

03:19.905 --> 03:22.211
>> I THINK IT IS PERSONAL FOR

03:22.246 --> 03:23.230
HER BECAUSE SHE BELIEVES

03:23.241 --> 03:24.440
STRONGLY IN THE CONSTITUTION

03:24.475 --> 03:26.215
AND IF YOU WERE A TRUE

03:26.226 --> 03:27.291
CONSERVATIVE, YOU BELIEVE IN

03:27.302 --> 03:28.856
THE RULE OF LAW, YOU BELIEVE IN

03:28.857 --> 03:30.006
THE CONSTITUTION AND YOU STAND

03:30.008 --> 03:32.836
UP FOR THOSE THINGS AND THAT IS

03:32.870 --> 03:34.214
WHAT TED CRUZ TRIED TO OVERTURN

03:34.225 --> 03:34.961
IN 2020.

03:34.996 --> 03:37.598
CERTAINLY I THINK IT IS

03:37.609 --> 03:38.892
RESONATING BECAUSE THESE ARE

03:38.926 --> 03:41.024
ALSO SOME OF THE FOLKS WHO

03:41.025 --> 03:42.070
ELECTED ME TO CONGRESS.

03:42.071 --> 03:43.366
FOLKS WHO MAYBE VOTED FOR

03:43.377 --> 03:45.012
GEORGE W. BUSH OR VOTED FOR

03:45.047 --> 03:47.702
MITT ROMNEY, BUT ARE LOOKING

03:47.703 --> 03:49.267
AND NOT SEEING THEIR VALUES

03:49.278 --> 03:50.345
REFLECTED IN THIS VERSION OF

03:50.380 --> 03:52.472
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

03:52.483 --> 03:55.000
THAT IS ALSO HOW WE WILL BEAT

03:55.011 --> 03:55.564
TED CRUZ.

03:55.575 --> 03:57.756
DEMOCRATS, YES, BUT ALSO

03:57.790 --> 03:59.072
INDEPENDENTS AND REPUBLICANS.

03:59.083 --> 04:00.866
>> CONGRESSMAN, THIS IS WHEN I

04:00.901 --> 04:03.127
KNEW THAT YOUR RACE WAS

04:03.138 --> 04:04.833
SERIOUSLY ONE TO WATCH AND I

04:04.867 --> 04:06.586
MENTIONED THAT IT IS NOT GREAT

04:06.597 --> 04:09.782
WHEN AN INCUMBENT IS POLLING

04:09.783 --> 04:11.802
BELOW 50%.

04:11.803 --> 04:15.417
DONALD TRUMP’S OWN CO-CAMPAIGN

04:15.428 --> 04:17.790
MANAGER POSTED THIS ONLINE ON

04:17.825 --> 04:20.377
SATURDAY.

04:20.388 --> 04:22.918
TIMESTAMP, 4:18 A.M.

04:22.929 --> 04:25.430
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE SENATE

04:25.441 --> 04:26.400
RACE IN TEXAS?

04:26.411 --> 04:29.888
I THINK I KNOW AND I THINK I

04:29.921 --> 04:30.822
KNOW HIS NAME.

04:30.823 --> 04:32.183
TIME TO GET SOME REAL

04:32.194 --> 04:33.798
PROFESSIONALS INTO SAVE TED

04:33.809 --> 04:34.175
CRUZ.

04:34.210 --> 04:36.868
THIS LED TO A LOT OF FOLKS TO

04:36.879 --> 04:38.428
BELIEVE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT

04:38.462 --> 04:41.583
CRUZ’S CAMPAIGN MANAGER, JEFF

04:41.594 --> 04:41.989
ROWE.

04:42.000 --> 04:43.543
I BRING ALL OF THAT UP.

04:43.544 --> 04:45.758
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE

04:45.792 --> 04:46.690
WASHINGTON REPUBLICANS WORRIED.

04:46.691 --> 04:47.728
>> THEY SHOULD BE.

04:47.739 --> 04:49.040
THERE WAS A POLL TODAY THAT

04:49.042 --> 04:51.400
SHOWED ME LEADING IN THE RACE

04:51.411 --> 04:52.930
AND WE WILL BEAT TED CRUZ.

04:52.964 --> 04:54.213
POLLS ONLY SAY SO MUCH.

04:54.224 --> 04:55.577
WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS GET FOLKS

04:55.612 --> 04:56.673
OUT TO VOTE.

04:56.684 --> 04:58.399
THAT IS WHY I HOPE FOLKS WILL

04:58.433 --> 04:59.809
TEXT AND GET INVOLVED IN THIS

04:59.820 --> 05:00.401
CAMPAIGN.

05:00.436 --> 05:02.701
HELP US TURN OUT THE VOTE IN

05:02.702 --> 05:04.162
TEXAS BECAUSE THAT HAS BEEN ONE

05:04.173 --> 05:06.305
OF OUR CHALLENGES AND WHEN WE

05:06.316 --> 05:08.485
BEAT TED CRUZ IT WON’T BE A WIN

05:08.496 --> 05:12.081
FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OR A
