   Montana Gov. Steve Bullock took a subtle jab at left-wing   
   Democratic presidential candidates like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-   
   Mass., by suggesting that they aren't being clear-eyed about   
   what that term actually means.   
      
   "To me, progressive is actually making progress on the issues   
   that people are confronting and facing in their lives," Bullock   
   said Friday on "The Daily Briefing."   
      
   Host Dana Perino had just asked Bullock to address complaints by   
   Warren and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., about more moderate   
   candidates like himself and former U.S. Rep. John Delaney.   
      
   “You know, I don’t understand why anybody goes to all the   
   trouble of running for president of the United States just to   
   talk about what we really can’t do and shouldn’t fight for,"   
   Warren told Delaney Tuesday during the second round of   
   Democratic primary debates.

   Bullock blasted what he called "wish-list economics" while   
   debating health care policy.   
      
   The Montana governor noted Friday that he was the only Democrat   
   in the 2020 race to have won in a state that voted for President   
   Trump in 2016. He told Perino that instead of focusing on "lofty   
   plans," he would focus on "things that matter to people's   
   everyday lives."

   "We don't have to disrupt the lives of about 165 million people   
   that have employer-sponsored health insurance to actually make   
   sure that access to health care is both accessible and   
   affordable," he said.   
      
   He also called for a public option and blasted Trump's attempts   
   to roll back the Affordable Care Act, former President Barack   
   Obama's signature legislative achievement. "This administration   
   is trying to get rid of all the heatlh care coverage for all   
   folks out there," he said.
