MSNBC’s Deutsch: I Don’t See Anyone on Democratic Debate Stage That Could Beat Trump

EXCERPT:

DEUTSCH: “It’s — and I also think when you can label somebody a socialist, 57% of this country thinks that word is un-American. I’m not saying it’s fair. When he can blanket Elizabeth Warren as a socialist and he’s on stage with her, the Democrats lose. I think she’s delightful, I think she’s wonderful. I’m a big fan. I just don’t think she has what it takes to beat this president, the same way at least an idealized version of Joe Biden is. Don’t shoot the messenger. It’s just facts. We’ve got to get Trump out."
WALLACE: "Donny, you’re in a safe space here. You don't have to keep telling us. Can I just follow up on that, Donny? Who could beat Trump? Did you see anyone on stage tonight that could beat Trump?"
DEUTSCH: "’m still sticking with an idealized version of — no, the Joe Biden we want. The Joe Biden we want and then you pair him with the right candidate, yes. I still in my heart of hearts don't see anybody on that stage tonight that would beat Trump."
