Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders' campaign manager Jeff Weaver talks with Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle about a recent Washington Post editorial critical of Sanders and the possibility of more debates with fellow candidate Hillary Clinton. “Given the tone of the editorial, why the hesitation of jumping into another debate next week before the New Hampshire primary?,” asks Mike of Senator Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) decision to sit out an upcoming, unsanctioned debate sponsored by MSNBC and The New Hampshire Union Leader.

“Body cameras do a couple of things: They helpfully point out any wrongdoing by police officers and, on the other side, they point out that 99 percent of police officers perform their jobs admirably and legally,” says Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle in support of Ferguson Police Department’s agreement to body cameras and new firearm guidelines as part of a sweeping deal with the Justice Department resulting from investigations into the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown in 2014.

On Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle shares his thoughts on comparisons between then Republican presidential candidate Ronald Reagan's defining "I am paying for this microphone" moment in New Hampshire in 1980 and Donald Trump's refusal to participate in Fox News' next Republican debate. "Reagan, off that one moment, became the dominant figure in those primaries and certainly Donald Trump is the dominant figure in these primaries. And you'd have to think that what happened yesterday with the whole debate flap played strongly into his hands," explains Mike. Watch the Reagan moment and listen to the discussion here. On MSNBC.

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle reflects on the woman who recently spoke to Democratic presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) about having to live on $12,000 a year, despite having a degree and working different jobs. “She represents something about Iowa, New Hampshire and America that we very rarely see—the one on one. The person confronted by the reality of life on the margin. And there are millions of people in this country for whom a large part of life is like staring at a showroom window,” observes Mike.

Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld talks with Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle about the ongoing fight against ISIS. “Last week we had your successor in, Robert Gates, and we asked him for his view on the things some of the candidates running for president are saying in regard to how they would handle the growth of ISIS and increasing tumult in the Middle East. His view was that some of the candidates just didn’t know what they were talking about. What’s your view?,” asks Mike of Rumsfeld.
