1:17 pm
was to this industry that generates jobs and income for the nation the fear was that if we export more beef the internal prices would go up and that's why they regulated exports and in the end people stopped investing because now despite the continuing economic crisis the beef industry is booming argentina is a corner with this problem with very high you may feel that because on the evaluation of the preparing for that the government would work and i worked in the field probably i was done that was born in the rain but i also believe like this one it was to help the country's economy move forward. and that's why the government has launched a major campaign to sell argentine products around the world. it's true many argentine industries are facing difficulties because of a drop in demand locally and there is financial stress but we believe it's only in the short run because we're hoping to export more beef grain shoes lemons we are

1:25 pm
senate and we've strengthened a republican hold on coming confirmation hearings and a lot of you have another supreme court nominee i think it will go through much smoother now that we have control of the senate so are you feeling that you're doing so much winning right now as a republican. not so much that we were disappointed to see us lose a few races in the house and obviously democrats stepped up their game but i think it gives us more opportunity to work much more harder for the upcoming next election gini you're smiling i mean you're looking positively radiant today is that because of the midterm election i was very happy that the democrats took over the house because and this now we have some check and balance we need a lot of check and balance it would be better if the senate all still was controlled by the democrats but the given is that we can't we couldn't we didn't so for now hope that the democrats will move on and speak for the people and help with
1:26 pm
all of the things that the concerns the people of concerns of especially gun violence just happened last night we need more bad gun controls in relations reform we need that and then we also need to make sure that the deficit the budget deficit change and we should. move the. budget more to what the poor people and the id i think put it all see is that just being to cut the tax cut for the said and more some of that to help you've got a whole plan ahead and it's only. right now why don't need to raise the minimum wage for teachers but i think many older people and the poor very concerned by the social security cuts and also maybe can maybe get happening because it's already been set by mitch mcconnell you know it's interesting that you mention the checks and balances because. there are people on the field exactly the same way and just
1:27 pm
say heard you've been there so i'm going to give this one to you this is shonda on twitter who says the midterm elections were like a break applied to a runaway train it was a relief to many it showed that a check and balance system still exists in the country and not just employment and money and economy they aren't everything respect is a most important justy. the midterm election are going to be first of all i was not. a tremendous victory it was like president trump state it was almost a complete with tree for the republicans this was historical that the senate in the senate republicans did add forty five more seats all the three important states on hio florida and georgia which are very crucial for the two thousand and twenty lections were retained by the republicans and also the house
1:28 pm
it was as was again you know the democrats did get the house but if you go back historically president obama at this time it lost sixty eight seats whereas republicans have only. done it with twenty eight seats so overall it was a good mandate for the president because whenever all the candidates that he supported did very well he out of his eleven can it is that he supported nine one it was a clear mandate for a president from support and i think democrats getting the how else will bring the both both leaders leader pelosi and present trump has. have you know talked about uniting and working in a bipartisan way but what democrats have done in past two years it seems very hard i think that what they'll do is this chart. and all kind of. throwing monkey
1:29 pm
wrenches and it will be a. dead log i don't think we're going to get much from the government in the next two years and just check in with a cigar half back as. only make i do drowning in a blue wave and me and mine are. yeah. you know i got it and was a chain my friends swimming in it and then anthony's probably drowning and at my right he confessed. well i think that i could see that the country won because it was a show like a really prove that the a citizen is interesting in chance something in the country because they don't like the way that it's running now and in principle only in t.v. in new mexico you know that was running for the republican governor there are now we get democrat and almost all the position we're getting for a democrat. the position one in dan
1:30 pm
blue sat so we are happy for that. and to me. very depressed actually. i should not go out oppression this is an empathetic chuckle go had acne like you know it's a rollercoaster always are you throwing up on your how to kind of step. no we're going to start to climb again and you know i think that i think a you know i was very disappointed that the blue went really hit mexico as hard as it did and now all of our congressional delegation now is going to be democrat that's disappointing so we don't have any republicans representing the sin in washington d.c. anymore that's that's part of it the partners the governor the cain manners very staunch liberal talking about additional gun laws and everything else like that and jane you don't understand but one thing is gun laws additional gun owners are going
1:31 pm
to help anything because the the legal people are already a band the law is needed it's not gun laws we need we need people law that we need judges and stuff that are there that will go out there and do something with these people we don't need open doors or revolving doors. and that's the problem be democrat these not just go and you saw they're going to do that we need to think about you know immigration economy you know a show and so it's not joe's. republicans they think that there are other points about democrats that they can now improve starting in new mexico all the state. by right here you're saying that it is not just about the gun issue and that we just got a tweet on that but i'm going to tease our audience and save it for a little later in the conversation because i still want to stay on the midterms now we haven't heard from santa a.j. and i want to share what several people noted was their highlight from these elections this is she should run the handle who said during the selection female
1:32 pm
candidates smashed more barriers in history and the results showed that when women rewrite the rules it works we reached record breaking numbers ninety five women were elected to the house and the previous record was eighty four so for additional eyes ation of what that looks like here are just a few of those women are iranian american muslim native american gay african-american latino american you can see some of the groundbreaker right bear we actually got a video comments on the same point and so i want to share it with you because this was a highlight for kate gormley had a listen women are role models for our daughters and granddaughters and important leaders for our country having our number of women run for and when elected office is going to have an immediate impact and we may see a multiplier effect down the road and that's a good thing for our democracy because a team that works together with varied experiences and perspectives is smarter and
1:33 pm
can accomplish more our nation needs the talent and energy of all americans whether they're man or woman whiny black or brown so a record number of women running was that highlight for you some out. oh absolutely in my own home state you showed our rep ilhan omar so happy so happy that she will be representing us and across the country there were firsts in many states first native congress want women and native muslim women muslim women and muslim or a senator women senators women governors it was it was incredible to see did i do what i'm thinking about if people are listening to you because you're living in the face of i wouldn't is all over the world alone trying to think well what difference does it make what difference to the election results make in every day life so
1:34 pm
what's happened in this past week what's going to be different for you well i think one of the things that we have seen as sort of those in particular we. choose number off a great diversity people that we lack the diverse people just like we were. women and in those african-americans there is our governor's running mate is a native american first time limited american oneness. state wide election and so what this would do i think is bring in the perspective from the diverse groups that now join. the legislative bodies and hopefully they will talk about some of the issues of well people that have been neglected in the past. doesn't want to highlight
1:35 pm
or are you would you say can you repeat it now what with what's been your highlight for me ten elections what was the state with their own money yeah what what what did you go to bed and wake up in the morning thinking now now i'm in a good mood about this. well we are going to go ahead with the make america great agenda that's been going on with. i don't think this midterm elections make any difference to. president trump what it might do is it might now. if if the if the democrats in the house. are not working in a bipartisan way the president from can blame everything on the house and say hey you know i tried like the health care like the immigration bills. you can always blame the house for not passing those but if the house works with him i think it
1:36 pm
would be a good thing and president trump can take credit for that i think there are more better chances of the immigration bill and the health care bill now going to reform and getting passed because now democrats are in the control of the house and if they don't take it seriously if they don't do anything about it then they will be blamed after two years so i think it has a positive way that maybe you know some of these issues might be resolved so i am for me i was very happy that we had many vietnamese americans came out and run for the election and many of them got elected so at cost the country we have now eight bit emmy's americans over the got elected we have one of the enemy's american come west mo money reelected in from freida and she's from the democratic by the and for that was the has been a very republicans so stephanie mophie was reelected with well very proud of that
1:37 pm
at cost the nation will also have come when they get elected in a massacre sat house delegate from essex and then we also have. we are from california many are the difference do you think that will make i think of politics going forward in the us yes i think there is the wave. that all these people and normal people who did not see that running before and now they coming out and they will make the difference a president term should have thought twice before he does anything else now because these are the people. and bring the names the voice of the people in these refugees we were refugees and the people are very upset of how refugees being treated. across the border even that was the caravan that being mischaracterized president. very much because we can remember when we came out of the c.
1:38 pm
one hundred towns in the us and i traveling on this see will refugee little coming ashore and were you thinking about when you were voting early on this week many of us many of these americans especially the younger ones voting thinking of that the human. aspect and they were very upset when they heard that characterization of immigrants and refugees. because you're not the only one again jimmy your mind is on the same wavelength as so many of our community members because you talked about what you felt as you were going to the polls we got a video comment. new york's first undocumented lawyer and he told the story in what he was thinking about when he went to the polls what was on his mind in his heart and here's what he said. donald trump has created a climate of fear and hopelessness the white house has targeted not just undocumented immigrants but also children green card holders even u.s.
1:39 pm
citizens so this election is not just about a few policies or even comprehensive immigration reform this election is about restoring our values as a nation of immigrants so that everyone from around the world can still come here and feel as inspired to pursue that american dream so my or i could see you nodding your head as say as i was talking there were you thinking. i'm angry with him you know i think get like a community we need to truce in new york government and we need to be safe in our house and our and no risk date and no concrete and like in the ground i can tell you even if you are serious and you feel like you have been in place that you don't be a step that put all of this discrimination that a president approved because we can say with this speech that he is always stuck in a huge group that discrimination and a person that is this shift in a country can't do that because everybody is looking what is he saying even the key
1:40 pm
it's so it's like it's right there we need to keep talcum powder women about immigrants about their human rights are i don't agree with you and i think you don't are not all you ever used. as a whip my ex now hard women our children that has softened so what do you say about immigrants he's always been serial family once a legal immigration all you want you're trying to do and we may sound like a little rich and we all should be is never going to get legal immigration and yes you can do one thing if you're said anything bad about children or immigrants you're just hearing it to say if you know you're not doing it that they're going to see it out without facts you're just sick you were in yesterday's press conference president drum so everyone says you don't gamble you know i was. saying that that we might have said it's right at target that we're mad that it's not just put out men less for the president he is the chaff to these countries to cheat
1:41 pm
she's supposed to be the first person that we need to trust people don't trust and donald trump son i can see how much he looks on the edge of your she seems think go ahead. you know. i just continue to think about this deportation camps and all the kiddos that are there and now i know that we had massive deportations during the obama era i understand that and i understand too that when you vote for a candidate you support a candidate that doesn't mean that you agree with everything that they do and i'm saying that for the obama administration i'm saying that for other administrations but kids being placed in deportation camps and being denied basic rights this is going to be plucked intergenerational trauma it doesn't and this year or in the next years this trauma and this pain continues on and hurts communities for the future so that is one fact i can give you the trumpet ministration is control.
1:42 pm
well i think juvenile offenders have been in there are many juveniles and attention all over the country for illegal crimes and other issues so you can't just say that that was only because of president that our criminal justice system has punished a lot of young kids although i'm with somebody you agree with me whatever criminal justice system is going to marry the great grandson is a humanitarian and saddles are your assets mean anything no no why did i say i am so much how do you mean i want to i'm seven finish your sentence sure if a child commits a crime they will be punished for it and sadly they're probably these some of these children were brought here by their parents illegally and so the government didn't have any of their option but to place them and you conscient facilities and now they've been placed with foster care or other. accommodations i think you were talking about people go ahead with your sentence you want to get out if an american
1:43 pm
