MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace thinks Trump's cuts 'completely resuscitated the Democratic Party'

President Donald Trump announced a spending freeze that will have a ripple effect across the country, and even the MAGA base will feel the severity. This is so significant that MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace thinks it could change the game for Democrats.

Speaking on her show Tuesday, Wallace said that by reaching out to Democrats to appear on her show, she's seen this issue "wittingly or unwittingly ... completely resuscitate the Democratic Party."

"They were flatlined spiritually. Politically," said Wallace, speaking to The Bulwark's Sam Stein. "Basically, since the election night. And what he has done is — they have suddenly woken up. They remember why they're there. They're there to make the government work the way it's supposed to work. They're there to keep their promises to all voters, whether they voted for them or not."

And the thing that you just outlined, what Trump has done is Republican governors — now whether they'll go on Fox and say it or not, who knows — but Republican governors are going to have to align themselves with the members of Congress who" want to see the law followed, she continued. "Republican governors have a bleep ton of voters who would like their services, funded their cancer research, and Republican governors are a lot closer to their constituents. Sometimes, they're their neighbors."

"Those people will want to know why they can't access Veterans Affairs mental health appointments they drove three hours and waited months" to get "was suddenly canceled because of a political stunt," said Wallace.

"What Trump has done is by pulling this political stunt, he has completely resuscitated the Democratic Party against him," Wallace assessed.

Stein disagreed, saying this is a big issue today, but tomorrow, something else will distract people.

"One of the clear objectives for this White House is to just flood the zone. And by that, I mean a new chaotic moment, a new crisis point is produced every day, and something that seems even more radical than what we just went through the day before," said Stein.

Wallace said the difference is that many issues require voters to care about something other than themselves.

"Even a cop requires a cop to care about another cop. And I think if we're being blunt, I'm not sure that's the moment we live in. But this is about you. This is about your drugs. This is about your child care. This is about your food stamps. This is about you," she closed.

Wallace said she doesn't believe the issue will disappear with the next outrageous Trump social media post.
