tv   CNN Tonight  CNN  November 14, 2022 8:00pm-9:00pm PST

8:00 pm
look, election night is carrying on with cnn calling two more house races in just the past hour. the winds bring the gop to 214 seats at just four away from getting control of the house at 218. we are checking tonight, the democrat katie hobbs will win arizona's governor raised, defeating republican candidate kari lake. a trump ally who has been pushing election lies and saying she would not certify joe biden's win in arizona. let's bring in our panel right now, we have cnn critical analyst alex burns, and former rnc communications director doug hines. ashley allison is back with us as well. look at, there is a lot happening right now. kari lake is responding already stating that she has been called as the one who did not win this particular race. and that is expected that she
8:01 pm
would have some issue with the result, right? the question is going to be, where do things go from here? when you think about where we are, we are a week almost away from the midterm elections. i know a week tonight is six days away, but alex think about this that we are still calling races right now, even for those who have been election and i are, even at a time when they assumed the closing argument was odd, what does that tell? you >> i think what it tells you is that when election deniers were on the ballot and closely contested races, voters generally rejected that. what kari lake does from here is actually not all that important in the democratic process. it is better when candidates concede gracefully and certainly in the powder cake atmosphere of some of these states and municipalities, it can be really dangerous when candidates refused to receive. it is important for all of us in the media to remember that
8:02 pm
the words i refused to concede do not have some kind of legal factor or magic power. if kari lake wants to carry on like this, then she is perfectly welcome to do that. the question is, does she have legal recourse, does she use it, and do the courts indulge or? if the answer is no, and no, and no, then that is kind of that. >> it is like when michael scott shout-out bankruptcy, i declare bankruptcy. that is not how it's done, but that's fine. with the governor and senate races, thinking about the red wave that never manifested, it is causing a lot of reaction including senator cudd cruz who is pointing the finger at the likes of mitch mcconnell. listen to what he says about, in his words, truly -- off. >> let me start out by saying that i am so -- off i cannot even see straight. the country is screwed for the next four years because of
8:03 pm
that. mitch would rather be leader then have a republican majority. if there is a republican who can weigh in who is not going to support mitch, the truth of the matter is that the democrats win. >> do you agree with him or not, doug? >> no, this is an argument that you've had in parts of conservative circles for years. jim dimmit who left the senate to go to the heritage foundation, said i would rather have 30 real conservatives than a republican majority. a republican majority's committee chairs, and it is how you pass things through the senate or the house for that matter. having those 30 conservative senators as nice, but it does not get you what you need to pass things through. ultimately, mcconnell was right here when he said that we have a problem with the cardiology of our candidates. that was true in the house and the senate and the governor's races. kari lake should be an example for republicans of what not to do. do not tell your voters to get the out of the party, because they're going to do that.
8:04 pm
>> the idea of who might have been right or vindicate it in a subtle way here is congressman liz cheney, who has made a great deal of discussions and points about the idea of trying to reclaim the republican party. listen to what she had to say when she was speaking to chicago just a few days ago about what republican she said need to do. >> do you feel like there is a stiff enough spine in the party to stand up to future insurrections, are we worried about january 6th 2025? >> no, we definitely need stiffer spines. that is for sure. i think i think elected officials need to understand that words matter, and when you see again and again people accepting things that are indefensible, we watch what happens in our society and when
8:05 pm
you accept things that you should not, when you tolerate things like january 6th, then that can very easily become the new normal and it begins to be legal. and i think that is a big danger for us. >> it is funny, ashley, to see her looking at the shadows there because in many ways her shadow was cast on these elections as someone who even supported democrats in some instances because she wanted people to understand that democracy was on the line. but our point is republicans need to have stiffer signs, to even compete in the election. you talk about the long game a lot, do they need stiffer spines and do they actually have it? >> i do not know if republicans have it or not. i do think that they need to condemn donald trump across the board. the reason why you are seeing the split is because there is still a 30% of republicans who support donald trump. the election deniers did not win this election, but some of
8:06 pm
them did not get blown out. you mentioned, we are a week out, and we are waiting for every single ballot to be counted because there is still is to convict amount of people in arizona who thought kari lake should be the governor. i think that is what liz cheney was speaking to. i agree, i don't think that when the port says no, no, no you did not win and do not have legal recourse. we cannot make a commonplace where election deniers can still thrive and the actual candidates because when they are, let's rewind a year or so ago, we have people like the cyber ninjas who are wasting taxpayer dollars running these sham audit that we know did not need to happen. the result still stay the same. i do not know if republicans do have it stiff enough sign to say no to trump, we will see after this announcement. >> if he announces. part of the issue of having a spine is, it really is contingent on whether the so-called leader of the
8:07 pm
republican party, donald trump, will vie to be the next president yet again. just listen to this, we have a number of people who have been saying that trump is bad for the party from governor baker, to larry hogan, just listen to this. >> i think one of the messages from the election is for republicans generally, is we need as a party to move past president trump. >> it is basically the third election in a row that donald trump has cost us the race, and it is like three strikes and you are out. >> i think what republicans came to grip with tuesday night was, we are tired of losing, and we are tired of trump dragging us to lose because of his personal vanity. >> trump had to insert and self. there is a high correlation between maga candidates and bake losses, or at least dramatically underperforming. >> i mean, but having said that, will the republican party quit
8:08 pm
trump? >> well, what all four of those men have in common is that they are not facing republican primary voters again anytime soon. maybe larry hogan will run for president in 2024, and we see how that goes. >> but yeah, charlie baker declined to run for reelection rather than face a trump endorsed primary challenger and that cost the gop really badly in massachusetts. laura, i think the voices that are worth watching out for are the republicans who got reelected this months without playing the trump game. so, somebody like brian kemp in georgia. trump made it his personal mission to destroy him because he did not try to overturn the 2020 election. at first two camp demolished david perdue in the run for governor, and then beat stacey abrams in the general election. does somebody like him speak up
8:09 pm
and say i know how to win, and i've done it better than trump. he has not said it yet, but that is the voice. you start hearing from people who are frankly closer to the center of the republican party rather than the center of the country, which is where charlie baker's, then i think that would sound a pretty powerful message to republican voters. >> when he says do not come to my state, with herschel walker. >> i don't think he says that. >> i saw the smile, i think he knows what we are talking. about >> but you know who did speak out around issues around trump when he actually did win the presidency is the former first lady michelle obama speaking this evening, partially from her new book the light we carry. >> it shook me profoundly to hear the man who replaced my husband as president openly and unapologetically using ethnic slurs, making selfishness and
8:10 pm
hate somehow acceptable. refusing to condemn white supremacists or support people demonstrating for racial justice. it shocked me to hear him speaking about differences-ness, as if it were a threat. >> what is fascinating about that, doug, is that none of those things counted him out as somebody who was still favored by millions of voters. a lot of what she described happened before he actually got millions of votes for the presidency as i can time around. what do you think, if anything, may change between tomorrow and 2024 if he chooses to run? >> i think the only thing that really changes is whether or not there are real options for republicans. we have heard a lot of criticism of trump, but this never followed with anything concrete after that. to some of the republicans that alex was talking about further, and obviously ron desantis is a topic as well, are they going to run?
8:11 pm
mike pence has made not just a lot of noise, but new noise. is he going to do anything? at a certain point, criticizing trump on some of the statements is the good and proper thing to do, and quite often they will say that truth social or what have you, criticizing is one thing where you -- but so far the answer has been not much. >> we will see. the words of ron desantis, the name is coming up more and more. does he actually mean something there? >> for more with michelle, michelle obama, michelle obama make sure you tune in because sarah sidner, we can also call seroka she's wonderful as well, hosts michelle obama's mission. a conversation with michelle obama, and melinda gates, which is airing this sunday night at 8:00. i cannot wait to watch that. also new tonight, rudy giuliani will not face federal charges over his activity in ukraine. prosecutors have telling the judge overseeing the investigation that they are
8:12 pm
closing the case and no criminal charges will be brought. they've been investigating whether giuliani has been defying foreign lobbying laws operating on behalf of ukrainian officials when he pushed for the ouster of the ambassador and urged ukraine to investigate joe biden and his son hunter. this is not the only legal threat, as you know, giuliani's facie. voting systems tsai filed a billion dollar defamation lawsuit against him for his unfounded election fraud claims. he we've also been told that he is part of the criminal investigation by fulton county georgia which is investigating trump's efforts to sway the election in his favor. up next, one of the big winners in the swing state of michigan. how he is making history.

8:17 pm
well tonight, democrats in the key swing state of michigan. the first time in almost 40 years, they have got what they call the trifecta, they control both chambers of the seat legislature and the governor's office. democratic state legislator joe tate joins me now, and he is making history as the first black speaker of the house in the state of michigan. mr. tate, welcome to the program, our speaker? >> i am do lore well, how are you? >> i'm great. not as good as the michigan voters to think that -- because you had, you voted for abortion rights in this day constitution, you've got 60% of voters voting to approve the proposal to, and you had both the governor and attorney general to try to fend off that
8:18 pm
pipeline. a lot what took place on election day. i wonder, in a place like michigan, what are your big takeaways as to how much was on that ballot, but also the stakes now that you've got this blue trifecta? >> absolutely. so voters expressed their power last week and they wanted the basics. they wanted us to focus on the basics, focus on improving infrastructure, on investments in education as well as creating healthy communities across the state, and that is what democrats offered to that. they accepted that, and now they want us to get things done as we move into next year, and actually get to governing and i think that is a message that we carried through the campaign season and that we will do. >> on that notion of governing, it can be pretty enticing if
8:19 pm
you have democrats in charge of both chambers and in the governor's mansion to convince yourself, look, we do not even have to get buy in from republicans, we can just do this on her own. but that is going to really alienate a large swath of people that democrats were able to actually envelop into the fold this time around. how do you make sure that you are on the one hand governing in a bipartisan way, with that enticement being there? but also to keep a blue maybe in the years to come? >> that's a great question, and in my legislative career, focusing on bipartisanship is certainly paramount. i believe that we have greater solutions coming out that way, we are a consensus building organization, but we also have to keep in mind what is more important is that the voters said democrats, you are going to have the opportunity to govern because of your message,
8:20 pm
what you have been doing, with not only what i talked about before with investment in education but also jobs investments. so they want to see us govern. so i will come to the table and work in a bipartisan fashion as much as possible. >> why think it's so important, to speak to you today, is there is a lot always made of congressional elections and obviously national elections, and we know that michigan has been pretty much a swing state in that realm. it went for trump in 2016, biden in 2020, but the idea of what is happening in the historic nature of the michigan senate going blue for the first time in 40 years speaks volumes about what happens in the realm of all politics being local. it also speaks volumes that history is also been made by your presence as the speaker of the house. i wonder if you have reflected in the time the whirlwind that is been for you, are you reflecting on the historic
8:21 pm
nature of being the first black person to be the speaker of the house in michigan? >> yes, i am. i know that i come here, i stand on the shoulders of others. having this opportunity, there is been many who have come before me and have paved the way. my family came up from alabama in the early 20th century to find greater opportunities, and they sounded the mission. they settle down, they created a family, they had a community and having this opportunity now only just, i understand the responsibility that comes with it, not only being a black man and a detroit person, but understanding that we have a whole state and we are working for not only for one section, but looking across the entire
8:22 pm
state so we are improving the quality of life of all michigan residents. >> speaker tate, one thing i know from living in minnesota, it is one anything from michigan they will tell you, they will tell you where they're from, and telling you it is all one stage. i know you are a true michigan person, you held up your hand and pointed something out. i applaud all of you out there, of course i still love minnesota the best, it is nice to speak to you speaker tate on your historic victory and we look forward to your governing in years to. come >> thank you. laura >> young voters turned out in droves for democrats, but are they going to get action on the issues that matter most to them? we will see. because the only thing dripping should be your ststyl! plop plop fizz fizz withth alka-seltzer plus. also try for fast sinus anand pain relief! seatgeek presents boomstick lady. seatgeek helps her find the perfect seat,

8:27 pm
president biden student debt relief plan, while it is in trouble tonight. the circuit district court of appeals temporarily halted the program while they consider a lawsuit from six gop led states that argue that biden's plan to cancel up to $20,000 of student loans exceeds his authority. it will remain paused until either the appeals court, or the supreme court of the united states, makes a further decision. a setback on an issue that really matters to younger voters. it comes at a time when young voters brought in historic voters for democrats, favoring the party by 63% in mid term exit polls. here to discuss is alex burns, -- and ashley allison.
8:28 pm
we know that this was not part of the campaign promise this, the idea of him running on it. there's been a lot of cynicism around if he could truly pass legal muster, or if it was a ploy to entice voters to be there. that cynicism i do not think rings true, but that is a concern people have raised. given the fact that he ran on this, was able to at least temporarily accomplish it, and before midterm elections, how will this play out in terms of how young voters in particular are viewing the administration's ability to follow through on their promises? >> well, it is not biden's fault that the court is positing this executive order. i think it is actually a trump judge that is positing this, and i think what we are seeing, particularly if republicans hold the house, if i was the democrats in the senate i would bring it to the floor and yet again draw a distinction on the party that is trying to deliver winds for the people and the younger generation and the
8:29 pm
party that is not. i will continue to do that on various issues, and i think that actually plays well for the biden administration. he held his promise, was agreeing to cancel it. i am hearing that there are discussions today that are continuing to pause payment in till this is decided in the court, which is another favorable approach for many people who are suffering from student loan debt. i do not think it backfires on biden at all, it is taken to the house and the senate. >> on that point, it was mission accomplished and now it is somebody else's decision, essentially. i wonder, there are legal nuances here of course, as to the y and the idea that the heroes act was intended to be as broadly applied during a national emergency. i can go on about the legal jargon of it, but the voters mostly are going to say, hold on a second, the president was trying to give me $20,000 back and now the court is hung and i can't have it. does that absence of the nuance
8:30 pm
awareness really benefit president biden? >> i don't know, and i think that anybody who is telling you exactly how this is going to play is just speculating widely at this point. we do not know how the president message around this, and we do not know if democrats will do it actually is suggesting and bring this forward in congress. i do not think they would have a majority in the senate, if they did. i do not know if they would win to sail the majority, but they cannot get all 50 democratic senators on board with his plan. some of them very very sharply criticized it. there is no question that for a number of younger voters, this is a big signal from the white house that we are on your side. in american politics that signaling can matter. the years of build the wall, and emergency actions, it signals to voters that i am on your side. if the courts stop me or land issue stop me, you know that i
8:31 pm
am on your side. i think, frankly, people have plenty of reason to be cynical about the timing and process around this. it was a campaign promise that the president made, and it was a promise that he did not follow through on until he had been president for more than a year and a half. now it is tied up in court. i think people would have a perfectly good justification to look at this and wonder, what is really going on here anyways? but, this is not the only issue that young people vote on, and on a whole bunch of other stuff that young people care about, in some cases more than student loan debt like climate, gay rights, abortion, the president has made a concerted push to the part of the electorate. >> is now a good time to talk about cannabis being a young voter issue as well? and the idea that was on the ballot as well, including measures on cannabis for example. just give people an understanding here, voters in maryland and majority voted to
8:32 pm
approve recreational marijuana use while three other states -- in the long line of things, biden has spoken about in terms of pardoning or in terms of trying to plant clemency based relieved, he is you'd marijuana through a different lens than he did with the crime bill i just want to side. how does this, what does this tell you of these measures being successful in the states? >> i think it is really hard to draw concrete lessons on these bills. you can look at these measures, look at where they've passed. it is not easy to say, this is a red versus blue issue. maryland and missouri have nothing in common politically, and missouri has gone rather than your code is right now under trump, with -- >> this is more of a poppy orange red, but that is fine. >> you've got counties in missouri that have 40 points from obama to trump. these are massive shifts, and
8:33 pm
you cannot just look at the tea leaves and say this is what is going on. the one thing we know is that there is a lot of tax. >> i was at a joe biden campaign event in nevada only a couple of years ago where he was going on about how marijuana was a gateway drug. that was not joe biden of the 1990s, that was 2019. i think the journey that he has personally taken on this issue that the democratic party, and obviously in missouri, it is dizzying how fast it is happened. >> i think it is because the disparities that we see. we know that we have lost a whole generation of black and brown people in prison right now because of marijuana use when you have states that are making millions off of it. i think right now, the politicians are actually catching up to the people. arkansas did strike this down, but arkansas still has merit medical marijuana use in a lot of their state. so, it is an issue that soon enough will be legalized. i'm glad to see that the
8:34 pm
president has moved on it. this is what politicians should be doing. they should be listening to the people, acknowledging i might have not always gotten it right, but i'm going to move where i think it is appropriate to make it a more just system, and i think that is where biden is on marijuana right now. >> political revolution, perhaps an oxymoron on these issues. i should note that clarence thomas is often talked about not having a patchwork of laws related to marijuana as well. so there is a tie that binds everyone as well. up next, dave chappelle's data snl monologue is being slammed as antisemitic. did he go too far in your opinion, this time? ...or plan? maybe... it's because in dreams, you can do anything. in dreams... you can hold your entire world in the palm of your hand. and turn time inside out... again and again. and you can do it all with your eyes wide open.
8:35 pm
8:36 pm
8:37 pm
8:38 pm
8:39 pm
comedian dave chappelle's comments about the jewish community during his saturday night like monologue are being slammed as on by antisemitic. but check out this snl sketch that also weighed in on this firestorm around kanye west and others. >> man oh man, i cannot believe that kanye messed up our democracy. >> those two billion dollars in days. >> because it could not be me, then he did all those interviews making things worse and worse. >> he does not have to say everything that you think all the time. >> exactly, he lost me when he
8:40 pm
put on that white lives matter shirt. >> or when he said that mess about george floyd. >> exactly. and his comments about jewish people, i mean way off the mark. [laughter] >> alex burns is back, and david's whirling joins us with ashley allison as well. we've seen a lot of the monologue today being played from the opening, but i wanted to play the barbershop portion as well because i think it was a moment they were trying to convey that, it seemed as though black people were not going to comment on antisemitism which is a familiar stereotype as well among how it is viewed universally. i wonder collectively how you view dave chappelle's monologue and his appearance? we had to expect there is going to be some level of controversy, but how did you view the entire episode? >> so laura, i thought it was
8:41 pm
funny at times. dave chappelle is obviously a master comedian. it was a tight, very clever opening monologue. at the end of the day, when you break it all down, the pots that were about kanye west where he landed was okay, they should not have said it, they were stupid to say it, but were they wrong? now, he got a laugh out of it, he did it cleverly, but i think that is where he landed and i think that is, those jokes he relied on perpetuating stereotypes about the jewish community. he has the right to do the comedy that he wants to do, but people also have a right to point out that he perpetuated stereotypes and troves. >> jonathan greenblatt, the ceo of the anti defamation league tweeted out something to the effect. we should not affect day chappelle to service societies moral compass but is disturbing to see absent al not just
8:42 pm
normalize but popularize hashtag anti-semitic-ism. why are jewish sensitive sedatives denied or diminished at every term? why does our trauma trigger applause? >> what do you make of that alex? >> i want to be careful about this because i am jewish, i'm a political reporter not a cultural commentator or anything like that. the monologue was obviously not for me, but at the same time i do not know that anybody is surprised when you have day chappelle on snl, this is the cycle that you are lined in. he is a master comedian and i think he is at a point in his career where he is looking to get a different kind of rise of the people, and i think he is funnier when he is working in a different space. i think that was true in his comedy about trans people and i think it is true about his comedy about jewish people to. i think snl had donald trump on, when he was a republican
8:43 pm
primary candidate in 2015, well after he called mexicans a bunch of criminals and rapists, so i do not know if we should have a whole bunch of high expectations for the filter on that program. it is just to say that snl will, at times, put itself in the position of speaking truth to power and being some kind of dividing line of what is acceptable and not in the entertainment industry. i do not think that they have the record to back that up. >> comedy is not the moral compass in our society, and yet we have this expectations that comedians are speaking a kind of truth to power in a way that the average person cannot, and yet what's the truth is, to the larger point, what the truth is is being really criticized about. his interpretation of the what the truth, is it relation to stereotypes. i also want you to comment as well, it was at the very beginning, he read this idea of
8:44 pm
almost a maia called in advance. listen to this. >> i have announced any antisemitism in all of its forms. and i stand with my friends in the jewish community. and that, kanye, is how you buy yourself some time. >> that is how we began it. in a way it was focusing fond at the notion of what i need to say, albeit disingenuously, to get away with whatever else comes next. it is almost observers. people obviously making statements that are antisemitic, bigoted, discriminatory in virality of ways, but i want you to apologize. i apologize, and the bell not being on wrong. he is commenting a little on that notion of cancel culture and the way that one buys time around. it what do you think of it? >> i think is monologue was everything i expected it to be. i think chappelle is a
8:45 pm
brilliant comedian, i think there are so many other ways that he could have brought a comedy towards kanye and kyrie that did not require making fun of the jewish community, just like i think there are ways to, well the trans stuff that he does i think it's disgusting, but the fact that i do think the pointed thing he did with the apology was a strong critique of where weith authenticity in our country and how -- that i thought was really smart. we allow people to apologize for really heinous things and then turn the page for some folks, and some people never get a second chance. so i thought that was an interesting take on it, but i felt like there was so much more he could've done with that opportunity, and he took the bait. >> i will just say, i think it is a significant moment for
8:46 pm
jewish americans and that you do see a mainstream of not just jokes about jewish people, but real hateful stuff about and hate directed at jews, and not just from comedians. you have a former president of the united states running around attacking jewish americans for not being actively supporter of israel as he should be the arbiter of who's a good shoe in news or bad you. it's this weird perspective on jewish americans that they should have a loyalty towards israel, and what is wrong is not? i think people are right to be sensitive and alert in this moment, and i think that, frankly, the last couple of years it seems like dave chappelle is a guided missile for those kinds of sensitivities and that is what he is chosen to do. >> it is not just comedians or politics, it is also corporate america. i do not want to be dismissive of the rising hate crimes, the reports of the fbi of rise of antisemitism, which is one of the reason why the barbershop
8:47 pm
sketch is black people are somehow insensitive to the antisemitism, or somehow silently complicit is troublesome to me and it is pointed out that sketch. also kfc, yes the chicken people, they actually tweeted out something. they have a body of some kinds that treats out -- you are giving me this idea because this is a screen grab where they were promoting recognition of kristallnacht, which is the night of broken glass that many people look at as the night of the hall cost. they were essentially saying happy this day, computers chicken sandwiches. i didn't see it. but as we talk about antisemitism as horrific and targeted and pervasive, but
8:48 pm
think about how ignorant one blast be to think that that would be a commemoration to associate with a chicken sandwich, and then come back as a corporate world and say, sorry, our bad, that was a bot. >> you should know your history. we should all know our history before a schedule at week, before we talk. if i can zoom out from chappelle for one second, because i think alex is on to something about former president trump here. he has made a succession of comments that traffic in anti jewish stereotypes. republican jewish coalition in 2015. he said i am a negotiator like you, 2016 he ran an ad where over the voice-over of our structure were images of george soros, and then lloyd blank find was later in the same ad. you can go on and on and on down the list of these incidences. we have all been here in this studio at different times over the last five years criticizing
8:49 pm
president trump for those statements. so i think it is also fair to criticize kanye west, kyrie irving, when they sort of play in the same sandbox, then you go back to chappelle and say, okay, a tight comedic routine but to your point there were other ways to come at that without ultimately landing on, but were they wrong? and so i think that is where the criticism is. >> the one thing i want to say is, i think we have free speech in this country and it is needed, and the first amendment is really important. but, we cannot normalize speech that hurt people, is hate speech, and if not checked can lead to violence. we are seeing upticks on hate crimes to jewish americans and it starts with leadership. if we allow it to go into a comedic space and say, that is a way to take the pressure down, not when it is at the expense of other people in any
8:50 pm
