it is friday , november 8th. right now on cnn this morning. >> susie likes to stay in the background, she is not in the background. >> donald trump fills his most important chief of staff with a key member of his inner circle. >> i am convinced we will have a large majority this time. republicans eke out another win and they keep control of the house. and this. >> you cannot love your country, only when you went back. >> accepting defeat . president biden promises a peaceful transition of power as he looks at his legacy in office. later -- >> there is a lot of blame to go around. >> blame game. democrats looking inward and trying to figure out what went wrong and what is next for the democratic party.

6:00 a.m. here on the east coast. a live look at the beautiful sunrise and new york city . it is friday. the world seems to know that. morning everyone. it is wonderful to have you with us. two days after decisive electoral victory donald trump made his first and what could be his most important staffing decision. the president-elect using 2024 campaign cochair susie wiles to be his chief of staff. announcing this yesterday he called her tough, smart and innovative. >> let me express my tomatoes appreciation for susie and chris, the job you did. come here susie. chris, come here , chris. susie likes to stay in the back. the ice queen. we call her the ice queen. i have

never seen her side before. >> a source telling cnn that she accepted the job on the condition that she continue to have power to control access to trump. during the campaign this allowed her to insulate him from extreme advisors and others considered to be two french. the sourcing the clown car cannot come into the white house at will and he agrees with it is that quote, clown car that made the job of chief of staff especially challenging for donald trump's first term. john kelly, retired four-star marine general who held the position for a year and half once confided in a aid saying quote, this is the most expletive job i have ever had. people apparently think that i care when they write that i will be fired. if that ever happened it would be the best day that i have had since i walked into this place. kelly is one of four men who served during chumps term, a

reflection of his chaotic style, shall we say. >> the chief of staff was forced out and replaced now by homeland security secretary retired marine corps general john kelly. >> chief of staff john kelly will leave his post at the white house at the end of the year. >> president trump tweeted budget director nick mulvaney will be named acting chief of staff. >> nick mulvaney is gone. the president and nothing on twitter in the last several minutes that he is naming the republican congressman from north carolina, mark meadows as his new chief of staff. >> a walk down memory lane. join us now to discuss this is, welcome to all of you. i want to start with you on susie wiles. she has out obviously

which him for the last four years but she is not new to politics, she was in republican politics for a long time she is deeply and widely expected, she's the first woman to hold this role, which is historic . i think it is very telling that basically her one condition was i control access to the guy in the office . >> shoes a great pick, she has a lot of respect from the party. her and chris ran a very good campaign. they were very disciplined and they did their best to control some of the , as they put it, impulse that leads trump to self-destruct, they did a great job on that. one of the other things that makes it new for person like susie to come into this job as opposed to the other four chief of staff, she is the first operative to be it. you had ryan as chairman and members of congress, she is an operative.

she understands , in a better way, i assume , maybe more than the other folks exactly on how the train is supposed to run on time. >> ronald reagan was probably the last operative in that mold. >> we do have ronna mcdaniel who is a congressman but also fancies himself -- continue . >> great, good staffing choice, grown-ups in the room and i think we can agree. let's take a look at his statement last night. it was one of the greatest victories in american history. they were a part of both my 2016 and 2020 successful campaigns the question is, yes, she is the force restraining the armor president and the grown-up in the room, still , even announcing this wonderful pick, he is going back to this

nonsense of having won the 2020 election. i just wonder all these efforts and attempts to restrain his impulses , how good of a job can she do ? >> i don't think she sees her role as restraining him and i think that is why she is successful. she sees her role as channeling those impulses and managing around him . she is someone who manages down more than up . she has respect for her abilities as a manager. the staff that she manages thinks highly of her. she is able to create non-chaotic conditions around trump, but she really does not try to -- she was on board with sort of let trump be trump strategy campaign. he is going to say what he will say and we will run a professional operation around that. we will not tell him what he can and cannot do because that is doomed to fail. >> one thing that i thought that was most interesting, felipe, she was often on the

road with trump. to molly's point, she understood that you cannot make him do anything he does not want to do. but also with trump proximity is power . typically in a job like that you would not necessarily be on the campaign all the time. many of the campaign managers i have covered in the past were in boston , or new york or wherever the campaign headquarters were, wilmington. that is not how she operates. understanding how to work with him seems to be a significant part of her success here. >> yeah, to go back to elliotts comment of the adult in the room, the implication is the others were children. we are right back to this were there has to be someone come up with whatever term you want to use, control, corral, yes, it is strange for campaign manager to be on the road so much but we should see it for what it is. it was not a move out of power

to be close to the president but out of fear. what happens when gets on the plane. this guy is not different. congratulations to her. good luck to her. this is going to be a doozy, it is going to be worse. let's not pretend or go through months of what trump are we going to see? let trump be trump . he was trump, we will see that no matter who works for him ideally what we will see from someone like susie that we did not see from someone like is to assert a modicum of common sense and that's not a good idea if he says i heard you knock it out of your that's fine. that was not going on with the first round of the team in 2016. >> i think is the very inside of this campaign and to susie and chris's credit, they stared down lewandowski and those other votes. the way you

put it is right, it is not as much as controlling trump as they do detecting him from outside people who want to use the position of the white house, the campaign back then, or trump for their own sorts of goals, whatever they may be. >> wasn't that accusation that was leveled at in the end ? >> exactly but i think that was the wrong position based on people who want to discredit and weasel in. i think that is -- they stared back down and trump sided with them , i think rightly. i think that was a big testament. >> for both of you , it is a terrible way to speak about the american presidency at what we are getting from an individual we have had as a president before. there is a roadmap for letting trump be trump it is a fair one. i know we got to run -- it's a english expression.

>> no one here cares. >> on this particular thing. >> i commend the optimism on the hope that this all works out very well, but giving the keys to an individual that we have seen and how it works out before , i can hope she does a great job. >> take it up with the american people . >> i'm not disputing, this is not about the results of the election , this is about how do you expect the former president to govern when given the chance, there is enough data going back to 2014. >> donald trump is about as complicated to some of us, and to me , to figure out as a clogged toilet is to a plumber. we have seen it, it has not happened in under 30 years with someone has lost and come back. we have seen it, he is older and he is more cantankerous and

more stubborn. susie wiles was the campaign manager , we cannot say that she effectively did xyz -- >> -- that did not happen with lewandowski. >> it is a pretty low bar. at least getting her off, his impulses are his impulses. to me , of the four that donald trump had in the first term, john kelly was the most capable . i knew him a little bit and she strikes me as kind of a no nonsense, i know how to make it work. i think there will be a lot of frustration because trump will say what he wants. when you win you think everything you did was great. having her on the flight for debate was not as dumb as people thought. >> who controls the house? congressman greg glassman from ohio joins us as democrats

insist they have a path to win. dangerous wildfires ripping the california forcing bounces from their homes. president biden's final months in office after a lifetime of service. >> this country needs a leader and leaders change attitudes about people.

i have said many times, you can't love your country only when you win. you can't love your neighbor only when you agree . something i hope we can do no matter who you voted for , is see each other, not as adversaries, but as fellow americans . bring down the temperature. >> president biden addressing his party and the nation as he prepares to hand over the presidency back to the man he replaced four years ago. he touted his accomplishments and promised to carry out a peaceful transfer of power. >> i spoke with president-elect trump to congratulate him on his victory. i assured him that i will wreck my entire

administration to work with his team to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition. that is what the american people deserve. i hear you and i see you. don't forget , don't forget all we have accomplished . it has been a historic presidency. not because i am president, but because of what we have done, what you have done. >> that was the president, going out, i think the big question here and there are all kinds of recriminations behind the scenes , earlier this fall one of joe biden's closest aides spoke to tell the president the hard truth about kamala harris's presidency you have more to lose than she does. now he has lost that. joe biden cannot escape the fact that his four years in office paved the way for the return of donald trump , this is his legacy and everything else is in*. do you agree ? >> not as harsh as that , and i

hope it's wrong. i think it's important to put into context what happened. when people lose they seem to think they did nothing right and when people win they say they did it perfectly. donald trump won 312-226 when it is all said and done . divided won 306 to whatever. these numbers are pretty mirrored, biden won by 7 million votes, trump by 4 million and counting but let's just say it's the same thing, they are pretty mirror images. after the election the republican party did not say it is back to square one are we on the wrong place an abortion or this and that like they did the opposite. i think this was a difficult conversation, election . at the end of the day we lost because of inflation. i am not dismissing anything else with it is interesting question an argument to make. if inflation were gone, and the economy was going the way it was, these

other things in isolation have had the same result. >> should biden have run for reelection? >> i think he made the right decision not to. >> know, back in 2022, when he said i'm going to do the one term that people i promised people. >> while he did not. that's first. second, it is naïve of us to nominate someone in 2020 who was at the time 76 and think, the guy is going to continue to age . there is no one that h2 thinks, i can't do it anymore. it is good he stepped aside that was the right decision. >> think about what it would have looked like if the president right out of the gate said he was not running for reelection he would have rendered himself lame-duck i did the first day in office or two years it. i think we would've had a very different conversation , he or whoever else might have still lost -- go ahead. >> i also wonder, pretend 2022

was a normal midyear. the kind of got bombed. it was a terrible night for democrats , it does not change. he said 2022 spurred him to go to continue on. they had a really bad night. >> i have a hard time believing that everything would have been great for democrats for four years of the man sitting in the white house from the day he walked in and said he was not running. >> a lot of democrats i spoke to thought the time for him to announce he was not running for election was that the midterms when republicans won the midterms overall. they won the vote , they just did not do as well as some expected at democrats took that as a signal to continue. the other thing that i think is missing is biden is talking about a historic presidency and his legacy and all the things he accomplished, if inflation is what led to this result, that

is, in at least some part, due to the policies of this administration. the policies of the administration created the inflation and border chaos that people pointed to as the reasons they were supporting trump. to the extent that this election was a referendum on those issues, it was a referendum on policies of this administration. >> -- like a tsunami that people could not control. i just want to isolate and look at what it was. people in to see come up but in particular they barraged the air with $40 million in transit. to walk away from this that president trump has a mandate , a moral mandate to go after what republicans like i don't think that is the case now than it was four years ago and i do not think it is an extrapolation you can make if you are saying these two races are the same. he won. we are still a 50-50 nation. to earlier conversation about susie wiles and we will

see how he deals with that and we all know how he will deal with that he will not address it and that is a problem. >> still ahead, what happens now? michael smerconish joins us with how president trump might tackle the promises he made >> we did not have time to do anything but leave . >> a massive wildfire raging in california displacing dozens.

jen b asks, "how can i get fast download speeds while out and about?” jen, we've engineered xfinity mobile with wifi speeds up to a gig, so you can download and do much more all at once. it's an idea that's quite attractive. or... another word... fashionable? i was gonna say- “popular! you're gonna be pop-uuuu-larrr!” can you do defying gravity?! yeah, get my harness. buy one line of unlimited, get one free for a year with xfinity mobile. and see wicked, only in theaters november 22nd.

welcome back. hundreds of firefighters still working to maintain a dangerous firefighter in ventura county, california that has left dozens without homes . >> it is surreal. we live in a fire danger area, but this came out of nowhere. >> more than 130 homes have been destroyed him a 14,000 people under evacuation orders, high winds have been fueling the fires scorching more than 20,400 acres. let's get to our

meteorologist derek van dam with the conditions expected. >> i checked the containment numbers and they are at 5% containment . we will take what we can get because for a long period it was at 0% containment , the brave and heroic men and women on the ground fighting this fire as we speak are making slow and steady progress. the winds and the weather are also helping and cooperating . not as strong with the santa ana wind event that we had in the middle of the work week, it has died down considerably, the relative humidity levels are coming up. there is still a red flag warning for the interior coastal mountain range across southwestern california. then there is a lot of smoke circulating in and around these counties as well . los angeles into ventura, san bernardino, these areas will be inundated by thick smoke through the course of the day and into the weekend. high fire risk along

the northeast into the mid atlantic. then i want to point your attention to the major snowstorm that is unfolding across portions of eastern colorado and northeastern new mexico. look at the snowfall totals. that is right, three feet of snow in some locations, and it is still dumping. plenty of snow on the way across this area. you can see that shading of white . the unfortunate part is it is stranding residents on the roadways, some of the local highways , they have had snowdrifts that have paralyzed some of these roadways are making it for a very difficult and dangerous travel condition. >> winter has arrived and some parts of the united states. derek van dam. thank you. >> coming up , republicans feeling confident about winning the house and pulling off a trifecta. if that happens, how will the party govern? >> democrats blindsided on election night. >> we want to win, we have got to listen to voters and boy did

they tell us loud and clear what they thought of us.

the house has been the only

firewall in washington standing between chuck schumer and the democrats in the senate, kamala harris and joe biden, and the american people. we played defense, we blocked their woke america last agenda . we also had the smallest republican majority in u.s. history . you know what the good news is? we are about to grow that majority that is what will happen on november 5th . >> that was house speaker mike johnson's prediction two weeks ago and it seems likely to be true. republicans are feeling more bullish about their chances to expand their, admittedly very narrow majority in the house . with the presidency and the senate already said to be in gop hands , house control would amount to a stunning clean sweep by republicans. house democrats insist they still have a path to majority with races at west and have a chance to unify if republicans gain favor. >> whether we are upgraded from minority or majority, whichever

position , we must be a loyal opposition to this president and get ready to take the house back in two years. i do believe we lost these districts on people's feelings. >> join us to discuss democratic congressman greg landsman from ohio he won on tuesday in a battleground district. thank you for being here . >> good morning. how are you ? >> let me start with why, what happened ? you won your race in a battleground district. kamala harris, obviously lost the presidential race in a very sweeping way. what message did you take from voters but why did they send you a different message than what they sent to kamala harris? >> a lot of us over performed the top of the ticket and i think, in large part , at least

for us, we got a lot done in our first term, we made things happen, we brought tens of millions of dollars back and we were normal. i have always led in a normal, pragmatic , bipartisan way and i think that is what most voters want a they are tired of the far right and far left. yes, they just elected donald trump, i do not think they want the chaos, or extremism , or cruelty that sometimes comes along with him and his rhetoric. i think , they obviously chose him, but i think , republicans , in the house and senate , and trump have to be mindful of the fact that most people really just want us to get to work. they want us to solve problems and they want us to do it in a pragmatic, bipartisan way. i honestly believe that. >> how much do you think culture has to do with this? i

want to read something that one of your colleagues , seth moulton of massachusetts told the "new york times". he said, democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges americans face. i have two little girls but i don't want them getting run over by a male or formally male athlete. as a democrat i am made to say that. is is the reflection you are calling normal? you agree with what congressman moulton says ? >> i think anytime voters choose somebody else , often times they are sending a message, you are not listening to us , or we do not feel included. look, this happens on both sides. there are folks on the far right who alienate a ton of people. there are folks on the far left who alienate a ton of people. this is a moment where i think the centerleft ,

and the centerleft can work . we want to get past this moment where folks are being alienated, take this moment nobody in this country wants people bullying trans kids, kids struggling with gender identity issues , they do not want them bullied and messed with. at the same time, they don't want government telling them what to do. we go from a place where we have local control and people make decisions on who plays what locally and the rest of us focus on the economy and a bipartisan border fix and all of those things. no one , no one wants congress to start , or a politician to start bullying trans kids and i think the far right has to stop and i think the far left needs to leave them alone too. >> sir, you obviously were

vocal on issues around israel, in particular , we saw a number jewish voters who voted republican this time. there is now a back-and-forth in the democratic party, some say kamala harris did not go far enough on the war in gaza in condemning israel. others say the opposite story is true , part of why some more moderate, people in america , rejected the democrats because there was too much israel or anti-semitic rhetoric. what for you is a lesson from the democratic party on how they should talk about israel? >> in terms of the election, i don't know yet data suggests that the issue is hugely important to a lot of people, but it was not what drove their decision. yes, i have been very pro-israel and will continue to be. i also believe in a sustainable peace and

palestinian self-determination . you can be both. i won across the board here in our district and picked up a ground , i think in almost every corner of the district. i think it is more about being strong and having conviction . i do think the party, or some on the far left made things more complicated , i do not think that helped her, but i do not think that is why she lost. i think the economy, obviously , it just hurts , those who are perceived to be incumbents or actually are incumbents. the moment for democrats now is for those of us in the center left to work with the folks on the far left and say, look, let's come to an understanding about

how we will talk and work together because we do not want to end up like my republican colleagues that they are so frustrated with the far right and a lot of them are worried that when they get back to washington that it will be the far right driving the agenda which will not be good for the american people or the republican party. >> congressman greg landsman . thank you for your time. what went wrong ? as we have been discussing, is the big question for democrats. they are on track to lose the popular vote in a popular election for the first time in 20 years and now many are scrabbling for answers as republican sweep back into power. >> i think we need to reconnect with working-class voters read we have not done enough to them , we have not spoken to their concerns and by definition we are out of touch because they do not support us at the polls.

i'm grateful for the advocacy and the ideas that the far left brings to our party, but we cannot be branded by that. we cannot be defined by the far left. >> donald trump and his allies did say racist things and did make racist jokes that did offend a lot of people including myself come at the end of the day we had to do a better job of saying what we are against but what we are for. >> if we're going to win we have to listen to voters and they told us loud and clear what they thought of us. >> the panel is back now. this was, philippe i understand what you have been saying all morning him up at this is sweeping. >> i'm not saying don't over read , i am saying try to narrow the factors in some orderly way unpack what happened. let's just say i am wrong what i said earlier that inflation would have been hunky-dory. either way , here's the problem, i am not concerned with what the right thinks about the democratic party , i am concerned about

what i think about the democratic party. i do not like to echo the congressman, all three of them , i don't like the fact that a small portion of our party is pretty much dictating where we are. we are being branded as extremist . it is not only politically problematic as we just saw, because none of this helped the other day. we need to take stock of why we are being held hostage to the far left. no one should be or wants to be kowtowing to the extremes of their own party. they just should not, to the extent that majority should rule. the majority of democrats do not agree with the things that we are being tagged with -- >> what are those things? >> i think democrats believe in common sense stuff or than you realize. it is not like we sit at home and don't talk to

anyone. most democrats i know think there is a huge problem at the border. most democrats i know think, frankly that males at birth should not play women sports and vice versa. you can have a healthy conversation in a party and you have to have room in a party for all of this. at the end of the day if you have these issues that are 80-20 across the country come you have to figure out why they are being tagged with one. on one hand it is easy, because it is politically sexy there is a reason why $40 million ads were thrown at the vice president. how we go thrown forward from here , first it comes to us. we have to listen to everybody , but republicans don't get to tell us because they won for the first time in 20 years and the second time in 36 years the popular vote, what everybody wants , this is still a 50-50 country . for us to go forward and be representative of the democratic party , or whatever

, however you want to describe it, we have to reorient. the congressman made a point that up until today he was afraid to say it, god knows what will happen on my twitter when i get home i'm is starts with that kind of thing. >> that afraid to say it, do you think that fundamentally tells the story of why democrats were broadly rejected here ? insert whatever issue into that rubric afraid to say things about the border and about trans rights and cultural things? >> the border is not fair, it is a wicked problem with legitimate differences of opinion and frankly , no one has a good answer to it and i do not think donald trump and a second try will have a good one. the other cultural stuff, i don't even have to refer to it , again i'm afraid to say

something wrong with the local stuff, the pc police stuff. republicans say they are afraid to say x, i am afraid to say x, congressmen are afraid to say x. why? why are you afraid to say x? you should be afraid if it is something stupid and hateful and make someone feel that they don't belong saying i don't agree with you or saying that is not representative of the bulk of us it is like medicare for all is not something that the democratic party believes in but we spend tons of time on it. on immigration , people believe, and i think i buy into it, part of the problem we have had as democrats is we have gotten pulled to the left so far that we cannot make common sense decisions. i worked for hillary and she had to contend with bernie. bernie went after,

i should not say when after he entered the primary. there is no evidence that the bernie sanders wing of the democratic party has met with any success or represents this party . yet, we are going to go ahead and continue every time someone on the hard left says he can do that we are all going to . i don't know what the answer is that the answer is for people to start saying on what's app, twitter and whatever it is, this is enough. the pc police it doesn't just apply to republicans. replies to, i don't know what i call myself, i'm a democrat, i'm not progressive, i'm not a lefty, i think i am to the right on some topics, but this general thing, especially parents with kids in school who are really bothered by this and i get it. >> philippe we will be watching

a twitter all day. >> i will pull a david and close my account. >> still coming up . it is friday. michael smerconish is here joining us with his take. >> we have a country that needs help and it needs help very badly.

resident biden addressed the nation for the first time since trump won the election. democrats are saying well i guess we can let him speak again. >> president joe biden promising a smooth transfer of power this to january two the man who robbed him of that same right nearly 4 years ago declaring he has a unprecedented mandate for a second term, trump is hoping to rollback a number policies and fulfill campaign promises. >> on day one i will launch the largest deportation program in american history. if these companies do not make their products here , then they will pay a stiff tariff. i will end

the war in ukraine. we are stuck in that war unless i'm president. i will get it done. i will stop the chaos in the middle east. when i get to office we are going to not charge taxes on tips. i will terminate the green new scam, one of the great scams in history. >> it is friday. it is time for michael smerconish . michael, wonderful to see you. i have been dying to know all week, what do you think happened on tuesday x >> great to see you as well. for me, the biggest surprise in a night full of surprises is that he broke 50% he obviously did not break 50% of the popular vote in 2016 or 2020, you can fact check me on this, i don't think he has ever been president trump above water in the polls, yet he was able to do it in the selection, and he

was able to do it in a campaign where every day seemed as if it was a greatest hits real of something else that would have occurred that would have ended the campaign of anyone other than donald trump eating cats and dogs, madison square garden, the shooting to the media and on and on and it seems to have emboldened the people who voted for him. the more you told people why they should not vote for donald trump the less they wanted to be told how to cast their ballot. that is my take away. >> that is a great point about the 50% . that was one of the assumptions baked into our coverage was that donald trump had a ceiling that he could not get past, it was baked into the way that harris campaign looked at the map and what they needed to do. michael, can i get your take, the way you frame to that , people did not want to be told who to vote for or that donald trump was an unacceptable choice for them. we were talking here at the

table about how being afraid to say what you really think was part of the problem for democrats, according to philly brian's . do you agree with what he had to say? >> totally. when i think about the last full week of the campaign. that madison square garden event, by the way, that was perfectly staged, i am not ignoring the comedian, i want to talk about the comedian , but i am a former advance man, i did advance work for george herbert walker bush -- >> i did not know that. >> i admire the structuring, republican, democrat, whatever i love to see well produced live events. that was a well produced live event. but all of the oxygen for the next three days was all about one joke not told by donald trump and it was admittedly an appalling joke. he should have come out and immediately denounced it and move forward. did it really

warrant all that attention? my god, you have been talking about it, we all have talked about the hispanic male. it seems like people who everyone thought would be most horrified by the joke were fine with it and rolled with it. i think that is an example of being told you should be offended by this, but it did not resonate , it did not hit that way with the people when they voted. >> michael, what do you think the lesson is that democrats should take away from this? what is the way forward for them? >> i think they have got to reestablish connection with working-class people. the individuals whose parents would have voted for the democrat in a bygone era in the selection voted for the republican. the billionaire is oddly the everyman. that is what he has become. carlos was auto wrote a great piece in the "new york times" saying, like it or not

donald trump is us. inc. about the embodiment of '80s, wall street, greed, gordon gecko . think about '90s and sex scandal, intern scandal, inc. about the social media era in which we are living now, think about the television era we went through a decade ago, he is every one of those things. the more people want to say that he is aberrant, he might be the norm. i know that will send shivers down the spine of half the audience are more who are watching, but think about it. >> it is a remarkable point and i will say, it does seem, look at the vote in queens people identified with him as the outsider who succeeded , not because of the elite in manhattan wanted to let him succeed , but because he ran over them to do it and it seems like they sophomore themselves and that then they did in those folks in manhattan. michael smerconish, love having a.

thank you so much. we will be watching your show tomorrow morning 9:00 a.m. eastern right here on cnn. it has been quite a week. let's just go around we have two, 2.5 minutes left with final thoughts of what we learned . >> i am not so surprised by queens , to be perfectly honest having grown up in new jersey thus i >> we didn't call until new jersey till 4:00 in the morning. >> i'm not surprised it is a hodgepodge of people and a strong working class community it it is time to rethink everything . new jersey being the biggest one . this was a bloodbath and a moment for democrats to think about where they are going. >> queens is working class and it's not white . that's the whole thing. the democrats need to figure out how to speak to working-class people across races. a lot of that is going to be thinking beyond identity politics , thinking about

something other than a message that just says you are to be offended by this joke, or because you look a certain way or come from a certain place , that ought to dictate your politics and i think that has to be part of the conversation. >> conflating folks at msg rally saying things like the former congresswoman should have guns pointed at her face. it is not something as i can't say what i want, there are things he says that are not funny and should not be said and should not be excused by his own people. what drives me crazy is they elected him in 2016 and he says what he thinks and he thinks what he says, we love that. every time he says something they say he did not say that, he did not mean it, the news took it out of context. the second thing is high-minded , i have worked for both women nominees in our history and just because it was not a daily discussion as it was in 2016, we really need to

take a look at the role of , not sexism as much , i would not call it that, maybe should be, can a woman meet the criteria ? i very much believe they do. some of donald trump when you see the word clouds about him strength, strong pre-can we see a woman strong? you look at the two debates of hillary clinton and kamala harris these are strong women. >> and and era . we are talk about kamala 's for they, them and trump is for us. it was not geared towards white men. the images, the breakfast club was geared towards men of color and african vote victory was illinois, new jersey and new york city. >> the weekend starts right now. we survived the week we have a lot ahead of us. thank
