THAT IS SETTING OFF ALARM BELLS FOR DEMOCRATS AT HOME. IT MIGHT BE A WARNING FOR THOSE WHO MISTAKE RETWEETS FOR MOMENTUM. >> THE LEFT ON PLATFORMS LIKE TWITTER THOUGHT THEY WERE BUILDING MOMENTUM, HOPE THEY COULD WIN WITH SOCIALIST POLICIES BUT ONE COMMENTATOR TODAY A LESSON PERHAPS FOR AMERICA, AGAIN SAYING NEVER BELIEVE THAT TWITTER REFLECTS THE COUNTRY. >> Martha: SO INTERESTING. HERE IS ANDREW SULLIVAN OF "NEW YORK MAGAZINE," LISTEN TO WHAT HE TWEETED TODAY. "ONE LESSON FROM THE U.K., IF THE DEMOCRATS DO NOT STOP THERE HARD LEFT THE SLIDE, THEY WILL SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS LABOR. IF THEY DO NOT MOVE OFF THEIR SUPPORT FOR MASS IMMIGRATION THEY ARE TOAST. DITTO THE WELCOME WOKENESS. LEFT TWITTER IS NOT REALITY. HERE NOW, MIKE HUCKABEE. FORMER G.O.P. PROVINCIAL CANDIDATE AND ARKANSAS GOVERNOR, NOW FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR. GOOD TO SEE YOU TONIGHT. THE TAKE ON THAT IS SO INTERESTING. >> I THINK THEY ARE 100% ACCURATE ON WHAT'S HAPPENING. A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE CONSIDERED ELITIST, THE ACADEMICS, THE ESTABLISHMENT, THE INSIDERS, THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND THE WORKING CLASS. THERE ARE THREE THINGS THAT ARE VERY COMMON IF YOU LOOK AT DONALD TRUMP, BORIS JOHNSON. THE SAME THREE THINGS THAT ALSO WERE TRUE OF MARGARET THATCHER AND RONALD REAGAN. FIRST OF ALL, THEY WERE STRONG PERSONALITIES. NUMBER TWO, THEY WERE DETESTED BY THE ACADEMICS, THE ELITES, AND THE INSIDERS PROVE THEY WERE HATED. THEY WERE LOOKED DOWN UPON. THE THIRD THING THAT REALLY MADE THEM ALIKE, THEY SHOWED RESPECT FOR THE WORKING CLASS. I READ AN ARTICLE TODAY BY A FIREFIGHTER, UNION FIREFIGHTER IN THE U.K. NAMED PAUL AND BARRY AND IT WAS BRILLIANT. HE SAID, THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE RULING IN GREAT BRITAIN DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE DO NOT WANT ECONOMIC SECURITY, THEY WANT CULTURAL SECURITY AS WELL APPEAR THEY WANT TO BE RESPECTED FOR THEIR VIEWS, THEIR RELIGION, THEIR COMMUNITIES, THE WAY THEY LIVE THEIR LIVES, AND THEY ARE SICK OF BEING LOOKED DOWN ON FOR THAT'S WHAT WE ARE SEEING HAPPEN. IT IS HAPPENING IN THE U.S. IT'S WHY I HONESTLY BELIEVE WHY PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL BE REELECTED IN A LANDSLIDE NEXT YEAR. >> Martha: IT'S GOING TO BE INTERESTING. AND ONE OTHER THING THAT WAS -- SAID SO MUCH ABOUT THIS U.K. ELECTION IS THESE MID LANE AND NORTHERN AREAS, INDUSTRIAL TOWNS THAT HAVE VOTED FOR LABOR FOR DECADES. IT HAS TO MAKE PEOPLE LOOK AT THAT AND SAY ARE THEY COMING AROUND TO A VIEW THAT LABOUR IS NOT WORKING FOR THEM, IT'S NOT MOVING THEM FORWARD TO HEAR HIS JEREMY CORBYN CAMPAIGNING, JUST WATCH THIS AT HOME. >> IT IS A VERY CLEAR CHOICE BUT YOU GO DOWN THE ROAD OF BORIS JOHNSON, A SWEETHEART DEAL WITH DONALD TRUMP, YOU BREAK OFF ANY SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP WITH EUROPE, OR YOU GO DOWN THE LABOUR WAY OF INVESTING IN OUR COUNTRY, INVESTING TO END AUSTERITY, AND REDISTRICTING WEALTH AND POWER IN OUR SOCIETY IN A WAY THAT'S NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE BY ANY GOVERNMENT IN BRITAIN. >> Martha: WHENEVER YOU HEAR INVESTING IN OUR PEOPLE, WE ALL NEED TO PAY HIGHER TAXES ESSENTIALLY. SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT IS THE WAY TO GO. APPARENTLY THE PEOPLE IN THE UNITED KINGDOM ARE GOING ANOTHER ROUTE, AT LEAST THIS TIME. >> THEY ARE GOING ANOTHER ROUTE IN AMERICA. THE WORD INVESTMENT MEANS WE ARE GOING TO SPEND A WHOLE LOT OF MONEY BUT WE HAVE TO TAKE IT FROM YOU BEFORE WE CAN SPEND IT AND THEN HE USE THE TERM "REDISTRIBUTE." WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? THAT'S SOCIALISM. PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD FOR THEIR OWN PAYCHECK AND WANT TO DO THINGS FOR THEIR FAMILY, THEY DO NOT WANT TO WORK REALLY HARD SO THE GOVERNMENT CAN TAKE WHAT WHAT THEY'VE WORKED FOR AND HANDED TO SOMEBODY WHO DIDN'T WORK AS HARD AS THEY DID. THIS ISN'T COMPLICATED. JUST AS THE LABOUR PARTY TOTALLY MISSED IT IN THE U.K., I THINK THAT THE LEFT WING OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, NOT ALL DEMOCRATS, BUT THE LEADERSHIP IN THE TO CORRECTION DIRECTION OF THEDEMOCRATIC PARTY DIRECTION OF THEDEMOCRATIC PARTI DIRECTION OF THEDEMOCRATIC PARTS REDISTRIBUTION, INVESTMENT, THAT'S ALL THEY TALK ABOUT, AND IT'S GOING TO BE THEIR UNDOING. >> Martha: OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A SIGNAL. >> MAYBE THIS IS THE CANARY OF THE COAL MINE. THE PUBLIC CLEARLY WANTED A CHANGE IN THE U.K. IT'S A CATASTROPHIC WARNING TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAT'S GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE SOMEBODY THAT CAN BEAT DONALD TRUMP, THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE EASY. AMERICANS WANT CHANGE, BUT I THINK THEY DON'T WANT REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE. BEATING DONALD TRUMP IS GOING TO BE MORE DIFFICULT AFTER THE U.K. ELECTION. >> Martha: INTERESTING THAT HE USED THE LANGUAGE THAT FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA USED, AMERICANS DO NOT WANT REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE FOR THEY WANT INCREMENTAL CHANGE. PICK THAT LINE UP COMPLETELY FROM WHAT PRESIDENT OBAMA SAID PER DOES THIS FORCE DEMOCRATS TO TAKE A HARDER LOOK AT BLOOMBERG AND BIDEN AND KLOBUCHAR? >> CERTAINLY NOT BLOOMBERG BECAUSE HE'S A GUN GRABBING LET ME TAX OR SODA -- I DO NOT KNOW
