let's bring in nathan gonzalez, a cnn political analyst. good morning, good to see you, sir. >> good morning. i didn't get drafted in the nfl, but i appreciate you having me on still. >> still waiting for your call, like me. keep waiting for that call. joe biden's call comes this morning in this online video. we're expecting it shortly. we keep saying as we just did, that the party moved so far to the left since he left the stage, but i keep wondering, if the party has moved so far left, how is biden entering as the clear front-runner? >> well, i think first of all, democrats love joe biden. i think particularly they love vice president joe biden. a what will be interesting, he steps into becoming a presidential candidate. how that shifts. one of the downsides of being a front-runner, the other candidates have to cut him down. he's going to be the subject of either some covert or -- attacks. because he's one of the frontrunners. the thing most fascinating about joe biden getting into this
2:35 am
race, demographically, he no longer fits the democratic party. ideologically, he no longer fits the democratic party. if he's the candidate viewed as the most likely to defeat president trump, then that could smooth over some other areas where he doesn't line up neatly with the party right now. >> my point is, it's the loudest voices in the room that have moved so far to the left. if biden's party is moved too far left, he would not be the leader. that's the point i'm trying to make. i don't think we can settle the debate by saying it's moved left. >> couldn't it be familiarity and his -- all the independents out there, people who might have voted for trump last time around looking for something else. is biden the clear appeal at this point to that group? >> well, i think if we look at primaries overall and we look at primaries at the senate level and house level, the people who vote in primaries are often the most ideological. the most conservative on the republican side or the most
2:36 am
liberal progressive. that plays, dave, to your point whether -- even if a majority of the party isn't shifting to the left, the most likely primary voters, i think, are shifting to the left. so that's why that's an important constituent si to have. in capturing the heart and soul and the minds of the democratic party is important. but it's combining that mind with the heart. where do they feel like they are ideologically. defeating president trump is the most important priority for democrats. that's where things get more complex over the next year. >> i can't help but wonder if he's going to campaign on defending obamacare and fixing it and signaling that he's not necessarily moving left on that medicare for all. a lot of questions will be answered over the weekend. let's turn to the man who occupies the oval office. who biden could be taking on. president trump is defiant, stonewalling congress on all fronts. here's what he said about that
2:37 am
yesterday. >> we're fighting all the subpoenas. look, these aren't like impartial people. the democrats are trying to win 2020. the only way they can luck out is by constantly going after me on nonsense. >> to you now, a reminder of all the things that the white house is stonewalling from congress. the latest, the bottom there, stephen miller won't testify on immigration. nathan, this is on all fronts an assault against congress's duty as a check. their oversight. is this the tone that the president wants to set? is this what we will see for the next two years? really, an us versus them, forget about policy? >> i think this is what this president and this white house has been. the tone that they've had. i think it's the tone they're going to have. >> he's relishing the fight. >> i think it's no surprise. this is what the base wants. they like it when the president
2:38 am
is defiant toward the media, defiant toward democrats. i think where things get tricky is that democrats aren't really -- they have this investigative power and the subpoena power, but in the campaign, they don't talk about the president as much. democrats are unified in defeating the president. they don't have to bring it up all the time. as far as a campaign message, you'll hear democrats talk about health care because that's what helped them in the 2018 elections. that's going to be the forward-looking message that you'll hear from the democratic party. >> all right. thanks, nathan. >> good to see you, sir. >> the boy scouts of america says it believes more than 7800 of its leaders sexually abuse children. new court testimony shows the number nearly 3,000 more than previously known. it includes scout leaders, scout masters across the country. the abuse happened over the course of 72 years. more than 12,000 alleged victims have been identified. the boy scouts in a statement
