Mika: Being a Democrat Running Against Trump Is Like Being a Women in TV News Trying To Break Through

‘You have to be perfect’

BRZEZINSKI: "I just think that there is no time for regrouping and for trying to see, you know, how you messed up your campaign along the way. This is a different situation we’re in. And if you look at Pete Buttigieg, everything he does is pitch-perfect, it is laser-focused, it's right on target in terms of tone, dynamic, message, everything. And that matters. That is why he is standing out. I kind of feel like being a Democrat potentially running against Trump this time around is like being a woman in TV news trying to break through. You have to be perfect. And then everything else comes with it. There is no time to mess up because they will move on and take another. There is no time to be figuring out whether or not you are apologetic about being a white man or not. It is sort of strange. There's no time for this."
