this rampage as part of a broader upsurge in anti-semitic violence, and are reviewing security for all israeli sports fixtures abroad. >> where are you from? where are you from? >> making sure that israeli fans are not targeted like this, ever again. wolf, tonight, israel is continuing to evacuate its soccer fans from amsterdam with another eight planes expected to arrive here over the course of the next day. this, as that situation in amsterdam continues to unfold, the authority say they are banning protests for the next three days. to our viewers, thanks for watching, i'm wolf blitzer in the situation room. aaron burnett out front starts

discussions inside the pentagon tonight over how to respond if trump tries to deploy the military inside the united states. as concerns grow over how trump will make iran pay after news of another assassination plot. she's a bright spot for the democrats flipping a house in new york. guillen joins me from her first tv interview since her victory. what did she do right? cashing in, elon musk that huge on trump and now he is getting richer by the day. a special report, let's go out front. good evening, i'm erin burnett. outfront tonight, bracing for trump's return. the pentagon officials are now holding discussions about how to respond if trump wallows there on campaign threats. officials have been doing scenarios based on things trump has had like suggesting even using the military to handle what he called the enemy from within.

>> we have some very bad people and sick people, radical left, lunatics. i think they are --. it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by national guard or if really necessary by the military. >> national guard and military for radical left people, lyrical rivals . that is one group that he has said he would use them military against. the other is using u.s. forces to carry out what he says will be one of his first orders as president. that is of course a mass deportation of migrants. >> under my leadership, we will use all necessary state , local, federal and military resources to carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in american history. >> that has been very clear. he has been explicit about that. just to give context, there are estimated to be 11 million people in the united states illegally, give or take 11 million. the context here that

is relevant in what he is saying, the united states only has 1.3 million active duty personnel. 11 times more migrants than active-duty military. that's the sort of demand that could plunge the pentagon into a state of chaos. the u.s. military could be facing chaos beyond the streets of american cities. we are learning of another assassination plot against trump. this one at the direction of iran's revolutionary guard corps we retained this indictment from the department of justice. iranians were focused solely on killing trump putting aside all other projects just trump they focused on. according to the documents we had, the iranians gave their assassin seven days to come up with a plan to take trump out. what that could mean, bigger picture, is a much bigger war for america and american soldiers if you believe what trump says because he has talked about this very specific threat. he found out about another iranian assassination plot back in september. he said if there was a second one, he would blow iran off the map.

>> we have been threatened very directly by iran . you do any attacks on former presidents or candidates for president, your country gets blown to smithereens. >> kristin holmes is out front to begin our coverage in west palm beach florida and kristin, you have some reporting tonight on a call that trump was on today with foreign leader president zelensky of ukraine. it was trump, zelensky and elon musk. what are you learning? >> we already learned that elon musk was on the call but there were questions about the circumstances around that call. this is incredibly notable given what he has said about ukraine. one of the promises he has made is he would end the war in ukraine by somehow getting putin and zelensky to agree on something but he never gives any more detail so that and obviously it is also notable given the fact that elon musk was on the call. i was told this was purely

circumstance, that musk happened to be at the club when zelensky called and that trump put him on speaker. he was congratulatory , prescribing the call as cordial, as positive. but they also noted that zelensky thanks musk on the call for his help with starlink. musk has been a pretty essential in bringing communications to ukraine using starlink during the war , but again, interesting dynamic given the fact that elon musk is an outside , no at this point, adviser, not part of any sort of government and not any kind of foreign engagement adviser. this call was only seven minutes and no policy was discussed . one thing we know for certain, donald trump and zelensky met roughly a month ago at this point. they sat down and both came out of this talking positively about each other and i was told the part of the reason that you heard a little bit of a change in tune from donald trump was that

zelensky spent a lot of the meeting praising donald trump, reminding him they worked well together and we know that flattery goes a long way. a lot of these foreign leaders are trying to get ahead of donald trump on the world stage and i heard a lot of these calls are positive . a lot of them are flattering. and that donald trump himself has been reveling in what he believes is the respect and recognition he deserves. >> thank you very much, kristin. david, let's start about what we are hearing here. pentagon officials are holding these discussions about how department of defense would respond if he orders issues to deploy troops domestically. whether it be for anyone with an and the promise he made about deportations. i put that number out there to make a point. 11 million illegal migrants , 1.3 active-duty military. what you make of this? >> there are legal strictures against that , i guess the

deployment of the u.s. military on american soil and i think for the military, the question is, are they getting illegal order here? you heard some of this bubble up in the last iteration of trump thomas oh it's concerning . i think it must be deeply unsettling for leadership of the military . you couldn't order from the commander in chief, but what if that order violates law? i don't know . i presume they will resolve it, but following their oath . >> these are things they do have to figure out. whether he starts with people with criminal records as it seemed. we don't know. the point is you don't know. you know what he said and what he promised.

do you fear what we will see? >> we should take seriously what he says. he says he wants to terminate the constitution. let's not forget about that. let's not forget about the fact that he tried to overturn the last presidential election which led to the deaths of a number of people and injuries for over 100 more. this is someone who i'm concerned about and americans should be concerned about because they are not going to be the kinds of guardrails that existed the last time he was in office. he is going to make personnel decisions that are going to result if people who submit to him being in the white house and being cabinet secretaries. a whole of government approach led by people who are obsequious and who will do his bidding and who are not going to care about the legal strictures that he referred to. >> michaela, how is that outcome avoided? i know that is something you want to avoid.

you want to get good people in government. >> what a ridiculous position to take, that anybody who goes into work for the president-elect does not believe in their oath to the constitution, that the constitution than you do, but the strictures will be there because it's called the net estates constitution and it very clearly lays out a separation of powers. one of the things it clearly lays out is that there are three branches including the executive branch for which the commander in chief and executive who is elected by the people is in charge of the executive branch. to act as though anybody who goes into work for him is going to bend the knee or be some sort of subservient pond and some scheme is offensive, condescending and that campaign rhetoric that led us to exactly where we are right now. the people that go into serve will be doing so and they will take an oath to the constitution and they will be trying to put forth the policies that the american people resoundingly said they wanted for this country. a safe, secure and prosperous america. i think you

should hope they succeed. >> i appreciate that, but i actually took civics, so i don't really need to be refreshed on it. the reason that there are these concerns is because of what the president elect has said that he would do, that fly in the face of that. all the reports of the things he asked people to do that they refused to do because they were committed to the constitution. >> someone like bill barr who eventually left. >> how about mike pence? or john kelly. these are people -- they clearly speak to donald trump's instincts and we all have seen what donald trump himself has tried to do in addition to the things has exquisitely said. the gas lighting is inappropriate. >> michaela, i really hope , as an american that the institutions will hold. i think we have great reverence for these institutions. they have been tested before and they may be tested again. the supreme court of the united states says overturning president by the

day when they give this president carte blanche and the former presidential amenity. >> that's not true. the ready opinion. that is not true. they gave him immunity on things for official acts . >> which by the way has not been adjudicated of what that means because he won and jack smith is going to pull those cases. you know, when you talk about the moment that we are sitting in, david. we are sitting in this moment for a whole variety of complicated reasons. one of them may be decisions made by the democrats. one specific decision , which is how this ticket came to be, nancy pelosi spoke to garcia navarro. she is on her all the time. we had an extensive interview and loose shared something that pelosi said, which is incredibly revealing about how this ticket, this democratic ticket came to be. >> had the president gotten out sooner and, there may have been other candidates in the race . that the anticipation was if

the president were to step aside, there would be an open primary him and as i say,, , love would have been done with that and stronger going forward. we don't know that. that didn't happen. we live with what happened and because the president endorsed, harris immediately, that really made it almost impossible to have a primary at that time. if it had been much earlier it would have been different. >> there was reported at the time that pelosi and schumer, even though they wanted this to happen sumer -- sooner. biden came out 30 minutes later and endorses harris. this appears to cement that reporting. is

not what pelosi wanted. she wanted something else. biden made this decision. maybe because he was angry at them, you know? >> i can't speak to his motivations. let me say, there were some people, and i was one of them, wsaid that perhaps the president should consider stepping aside , and i said that it was an actuarial issue, not a medical issue that we have no sin come into play. if he had done that, there would have been a full primary campaign and maybe the vice president would have emerged from it. i think she over performed expectations as a candidate here, but maybe she wouldn't have and maybe a candidate would have emerged who wasn't so tied to the administration that they could credibly critique the whole picture. >> on that, you lost your bid to return to the house. your districts won massively to the right. i district that biden won easily. massively. and now, gop. how much of that is due to harris biden? >> ballots are still being

counted, but a district that biden won by 10 points may have been won by donald trump a few nights ago. it speaks to the fact that the democratic party's brand is in shambles and the suburbs. because of the issue of immigration, i have criticized my party on this. we waited way too long to be tough on the border, to take seriously the migrant crisis and to act to secure the border. we are paying the price and we are seeing that all throughout the united states and house districts around the country. it was too late by the time democrats at the time of the ticket to seriously and said let's pass this bipartisan border security bill which we all know that donald trump has been blocking when he told republicans in congress to block it from going into effect. >> while it was blocking, they had the opportunity to do things which they chose not to do on executive order. that did come into this to play in this campaign. michaela, which leads me, what trump has promised to do, to use u.s. military, national guard formatting partitions. do you expect that

could happen ? do you expect that is --. he will start with criminals, i'm making that assumption here as a citizen. or do you think now he's going to go for the whole thing, all 11 million? >> he said clearly there is priorities. it's important to remember that deporting illegal immigrants is something that every administration does, this administration has done it. he was administrated in has continued to do it. we would be in the situation if we had a tighter border from the beginning. it's important to remind people while there was a bipartisan bill, it wasn't introduced until three and half years into the ministration. there is an absolute rallying cry to get the border under control . for those people that are in the country illegally and who have committed crimes, i think getting them out of the country as a good first step. >> david, i want to ask you one more thing. there are things that happen that are beneath these conversations and yet hugely relevant to whether donald trump actually wants to see his the opportunity , once

a chance , and that is how he talks. not just how he walks but how he talks. today called gavin newsom --. those are the things somewhat left and said that's just trump. is that just trump ? do those things matter at this point when it comes to getting the country behind him? >> if i were advising him, i would say you won, act like a president , try and bring the country together. but i don't think --. he is donald trump. he has gotten pretty far with his brand. i don't think he is going to change now. the real question is, does he spend his time seeking retribution against his political opponents or does he focus on the concerns of the american people? that's the question we are all waiting to see the answer to? >> thank you all very much. i mentioned little garcia's interview with nancy pelosi. you can tell it's going to be excellent from what you just

heard. that releases tomorrow. we have breaking news on more congressional races been called right now. do democrats still have any chance of taking the house? trump ally peter navarro went to prison because he wouldn't sell trump out. now looking for a top job in the trump administration come and dramatic and chaotic images of chinese soldiers invading taiwan . scenes from a new tv show. could it stage reality?

breaking news, republican jeff projected to when the house against adam fresh there is a balance of power in the house still up for grabs. that would be a clean sweep if republicans take it. democrats have 202 seats republicans have 213. you need to 18 to get the majority. the way this would work for democrats, this is a heavy lift. democrats need 16 seats. they have to hold 10 that they currently have. they are still outstanding and they

have to flip six. republicans still 20 uncalled house races to watch. how much narrower is a potential path for democrats getting? >> it's getting late in the day for them. you mentioned cnn projects 213's for the republicans. 202 for the democrats pick we can also add in the seats were democrats and republicans are ahead at this point. this is going in the wrong the merchant for democrats. publicans were ahead 222 seats , democrats were ahead in 213 seats and republicans are now had an extra seat. let's take a look at some of those races. one of the reasons right now the republicans actually gained a seat in terms of how many seats they are ahead and we will go into the state of arizona and go down the southeast corner dentist tucson. this is a flip from yesterday. kristin engel was ahead. now she is behind by nearly 1600 votes . this is a seat that is going in the wrong direction. we can go to the great state of california. this is a place that obviously a lot of races at this particular point. one of the seats was this one outside of san jose. we see the republican was ahead

yesterday, the republican is still had today, the margin hasn't shifted much. another one , the 22nd district because the ballots get counted, takes a very long time in california. david, we are waiting days or weeks, nearly a month after the election. we got more of the vote and then we had yesterday. we are up to 55%. this has gone up a little bit. and then finally, you go out . let's say we go all the way up to the northwest part of the country, although in this diagram it is just off the map. alaska , this margin hasn't shifted at all. mary, who was the democratic incumbent trailing now. there is instant runoff voting that goes in alaska. if you don't reach 50%, we redistribute the third party candidates, but nick is close to 50% at this hour. it is getting very late for democrats. >> senate races that happened that haven't been called, we know the balance of power in the senate. those seats and who gets them can be so crucial. >> let's start off with

pennsylvania. we haven't called it but dave mccormick has been leading. his lead right now, again , higher than it was yesterday. we have been waiting on votes from philadelphia . now we are up to 92% of the vote and bob casey sibley put, this is not the type of margin bob casey needs to win. you can have an automatic record , --. will go up to nevada. jacky rosen and that democratic incumbent. she does have a lead right now, a pretty significant one. 97% of the vote in, finally, let's go to arizona down here in the southwest. ruben gallego has consistently led carry like but here's the thing, that lead has gone inconsistently smaller. if we go back a little bit longer go and 52% of the book is from his lead was -- and we go , okay 55% of the boat -- it was less than five points and then we look right

now and what do we see? his lead is down to just a little bit more than a point . this is a race that i thought he was going to win. i still think he's going to win but there is a reason we haven't called it because that margin has been shrinking. >> that is in critical. so many places people were willing to do that and what that really says , really underscoring trump's victory. thank you so much, harry. one of the few democrats who did flip a seat in the house, congresswoman elect, laura guillen of new york. she beat republican congressman anthony d'esposito by two percentage points. this is her first tv interview since being declared the winner. congresswoman elect, i appreciate your time. you hear harriet layout where we are right now in terms of the house. we still don't know the balance of power. why do you think though that you were able to do what so many other democrats running failed to do, tried and failed to do and that is to flip a republican seat?

>> i have deep roots in this district. i grew up here. i'm raising four kids here. i know the people of this district. i listen to them. i talked about the issues that they cared about him alike the border. that was a big add that i ran. i nonstop throughout the campaign because this is something that people on both sides of the political aisle cared about deeply in this district. you meet voters where they are. you talk about the things they care about. they cared about reproductive freedom but also about the economy. you could say, we recovered better than europe but if people are still feeling pain in their pocket books you have to talk about how you tackle those problems. >> all those things are hugely relevant but you mentioned immigration , you ran ads on it and made it part of your campaign. let me play one of your closing campaign ads. >> for 2000 miles from mexico but we are feeling the migrant crisis almost every day. i want you to hear me loud and clear. send me to congress, i will

work with anyone from any party to secure our southern border. >> what i'm most curious about is whether you ever talk to anyone in the harris campaign about the border. did you tell them why you felt that taking this position was so crucial for voters? was there any feedback on that? are you did that on your own? >> i criticize the biden administration when 40,000 migrants are bused to new york and our mayor was asking for help and they said they were going to send guidance. when needed resources not guidance. i called them out and wrote a letter to the administration saying that we needed to send more border patrol agents and resources there. we need to secure the border. i did reach out , but this is something that i knew i had to talk about in this district. you can't run away from an issue because it might be a more republican issue. if to talk about the issues that the people in your

district care about. i was an elected official in the past and i was able to get things done in a bipartisan manner and i think people trusted that's what i would do in congress. >> you mentioned mayor . he also called out the biden administration over the migrant crisis. today, or just after trump won, adams announced that new york city is going to end a program that was giving migrant families prepaid debit cards. a program that the city has reportedly already spent $3 million on. something that american citizens don't get. adams did this within 48 hours of trump winning. i'm curious whether you think this is the tip of the iceberg. >> i think that new yorkers have paid an incredible amount to deal with the migrants that were sent here . in the campaign i criticize my opponent because when new york was asking for help he was on

newsmax saying, blaming it on biden as of trying to bring relief. in my letter to biden i said that new yorkers should be reimbursed for the cost we have had to extend to close and feed and house people. we couldn't let them freeze and starve to death but this is a federally created problem and new yorkers should not have to deal with this on their own. this is something that i think will continue. >> your partner is now losing control of the white house and the senate. very likely to remain out of power in the house. if that scenario does happen, i'm wondering, as you are walking in here , you are going to be a member of congress, who do you believe is going to be the leader of the democratic party right now? >> i mean hakeem jeffries is the leader of the democratic party. he will continue to be the leader and i think this is an issue . the border is an issue he recognizes that is very important to people.

democrats care about this. democrats from my district work in new york city. they go past the hotel and they get concerned about what they see there. want this problem fixed. >> resume elect, i appreciate your time. thank you for joining me on this friday. >> thanks. we have breaking news, peter navarro served his time and now he wants a top job in the trump administration. a mad -- for the border. there is a caravan of migrants coming to the united states , mexican border and are coming for the hopes of crossing before trump gets in office. is it possible another border crisis is in the future.

it's our son, he is always up in our business. it's the verizon 5g home internet i got us.

oh... he used to be a competitive gamer but with the higher lag, he can't keep up with his squad. so now we're his “squad”. what are kevin's plans for the fall? he's going to college. out of state, yeah. -yeah in the fall. change of plans, i've decided to stay local. oh excellent! oh that's great! why would i ever leave this? -aw! we will do anything to get him gaming again. you and kevin need to fix this internet situation. heard my name! i swear to god, kevin! -we told you to wait in the car. everyone in my old squad has xfinity. less lag, better gaming! i'm gonna need to charge you for three people. the breaking news, we are learning that peter navarro who went to prison for refusing to comply with the subpoena from the house january 6th committee is looking out for top job in trump's new administration hoping to lead the economic counsel. we are learning that north dakota governor doug who was for so trump rival and ever reliable circuit is under consideration for energies are.

it comes as elon musk's stock rises . so, what does he stand to gain from this second trump residency? he is already the richest man in the world. jason carroll is out front. >> a star is born, elon. >> cheers for the president-elect and the richest man in the world who helped get him there. elon musk. >> i'm not just -- i'm dark >> he helped get trump elected and the return on that investment is already paying off. tesla shares have soared 29% since the election. he has gained more than 30 billion. investors betting that trumps win will boost the electric vehicle company because of his closeness with musk . there was a time not long ago when tesla wasn't looking so great with reports of sagging profits.

>> when you look ahead, there are definitely opportunities for him to make money. >> max jeff get is a senior reporter who covers musk. >> spacex is a major defense contractor. its most important customer is the u.s. government and trump on the campaign trail talked about handing elon musk new contracts. >> what a great guy and he would rather be making rocket ships because he would really rather do that backspin is a privately held company so it's hard to put a number on how much he stands to gain. the same can be said of his other rightly held businesses such as the brain implant company neural link . >> he's a special guy a super genius, we have to protect our geniuses. we don't have that many of them. >> musk could receive a position and administration running what he has called a department of government efficiency. >> takeover, elon . >> you can rollback government regulations and cut he determines is wasteful

spending. >> how much do you think we can read about of this wasted $6.5 trillion harris biden budget? >> i think we can do at least 2 trillion. your money is being wasted and the department of government is going to fix that. >> musk is gloating in the wake of trumps victory , political bro mensa brewing. he is pictured with trump on election night, his family and with caitlyn jenner. musk posted this image showing him caring a sink into the oval office saying, let that sink in. a throwback to when he bought twitter and posted this video of him caring a sink into the headquarters. with promises to shake things up on the social media platform. though it should be noted, muscat his co-investors bought twitter for 44 billion, one recent accounting as it valued at less than 10 billion. >> it's amazing to watch all

of that but it's not just the contacts or the administration that could work to his advantage here. >> when you think about all of these investigations that are floating around the department of labor, department of justice, the department of transportation, has these investigations into his various businesses, tesla for example , spacex, but now you have to wonder, do all or some of these investigations now go away? that is a boost for business as well. >> it sure would be, in addition to the new business. jason, thank you. now the market caputo has looked inside trump world. that's a fun word to say. mark you just saw jason's report. musk now attached to trump for now and trumps family photo on election night . i mean, what more are you learning about the true extent of his influence on

trump? >> i think they have influence on each other. but elon musk likes been around from what i'm told, donald trump, because he is the fascinating historical figure. and vice versa. donald trump , he would say and go on these long tangents about how fascinated he was about rocket ships and how the rocket ship landed. they are like mutually infatuated with each other. one thing i think should be clear is , it is not as if elon musk is going to come into the administration and get a job. he is going to be in one of these czar -like roles that -- or he's probably going to be in one. he is going to have an interagency authority similar to operation work speed that wrapped together or roped together these different agencies. same thing with rfk, for instance. that's the

chatter that is happening. >> i know there are some in the business who think, okay, if musk is involved and he cuts wasteful spending, that could be a good thing. okay, fine. my curiosity is, you used the word infatuation. often infatuations don't end so well. they turn into -- they flip to the opposite side of things. we have seen this before . remember steve bannon when he was seen as potentially too powerful and influential in the white house. what is your sense of the depth of the relationship and whether it's going to last? >> i have no idea . there is a lot of similarities between the way donald trump runs his administrations , his campaigns , and like national wrestling. you have characters that are allied and then they fall out and they disappear and they come back. steve bannon is back in good graces with donald trump, for instance. what can happen next? who knows. that is

part of the secret of how trump presses on. everyone watches to see what is next. >> you know so much about florida politics and you note susie wiles well before she came into the role. she was with the trump campaign and now is chief of staff. how is she going to run it and turn that into something with longevity? >> in the same way she ran the campaign, which is, she puts the principal first. she doesn't put herself first. she is not confrontational. she doesn't try to take credit. she makes sure others do. she has good selections and good pics and empowers people to make those decisions on their own. she rolls and makes decisions by consensus. you don't hear stories licking out of internal drama of the trump campaign surrounding her trying to manage the candidates, something she doesn't do. that

worked and donald trump really appreciated it . you don't hear donald trump thanking people a lot but on election night he majored to go out of his way to thank her and bring her up on stage. but he gave extra attention to susie wiles because he is truly grateful for what she did so far and he believes she is going to do a good job going forward. considering her track record, he's probably made a pretty good bet. mark, thank you very much. and next, people in one border town voted for trump fully knowing his mass deportation plan , perhaps because of it. do they think that he will actually follow through on that promise now? dramatic images of major economy collapsing. china launching a full-scale invasion. it is all part of a television show that beijing does not want us to see.

tonight a caravan more than 1000 migrants moving to mexico is trying to make it to the u.s. before present elect donald trump takes office. it

comes as some of his ardent voters came from motor areas. he won 12 of the 14 counties in south texas. to show you how massive that change is come on the left of your screen is 2020. you can see on that blue on the southern part of texas along the border and on the right you see all that red. those voters lord to trump by promises like these. >> on day walk -- when i will launch the largest deportation program. we will have to do very large deportation because you can't live like that. on day one of my new administration the invasion ends and the deportation begins. >> out front now, trevino is from laredo, texas, which flipped red for the first time in more than a century. first time in 112 years. i want to ask you about these promises from trump in a moment. first,

what i begin with, that caravan which i'm showing on the screen more than 1000 migrants heading towards the united dates right now, some have told us that they decided to do this and they got in this caravan as and they found out he won. they want to get into the united states before he takes office. you are sitting right now, your town at one of the largest border crossings in the united states of america. are you concerned you will see another surge in crossings before january? >> thank you for having me and i do see that even though a great amount of people are coming, it won't be something we haven't seen before. as a matter of fact, our city has the least amount of illegal crossing and we get the migrants for processing. but when i see the things that people maybe want to think that before president-elect trump goes into office, they can come in . that is unfortunate

because there is a lot of dangerous and difficulties and it's not too easy to cross like before. >> okay, to that point about not being as easy, if trump comes to you and says he is pushing forward with his plan for mass deportations. no matter what it costs he's going to do it. have a broken congressman jim banks who was elected to the senate, he told us that every single undocumented immigrant has to go. let me play how he put it. some of the american people can deport every illegal in this country that we can find. >> trump has talked about doing that. but he has in the past made promises , whether the wall or looking hillary clinton up that he did not keep. i'm curious from how you see it

come our photos expecting him or counting on him to do mass deportations? >> one of the things that we just have to listen to, their opinions, but to do a mass deportation , first of all, who is going to work those jobs? what's the economy going to do with people who fill those jobs that american people don't want to take? these are people that are working jobs that keep the country going . they are going out to fields and doing the jobs, cleaning restrooms , assisting in restaurants. all of those jobs , if you get rid of all those people, immigrants or not documented immigrants , i think that would be very dysfunctional and it's not reality . this is just one of those things that he is saying and has been saying for years and probably it's not something that will be functional. i think that's the way it would go. >> so south texas

overwhelmingly elected president elect trump. 112 years he went from 22% in 2016 to over 50%. it's incredible. we have never seen a swing like that. ed who lives in texas has been talking to latino voters who supported trump and here's how one of them explained his vote. >> the man love the country. someone who came from el salvador, i have seen that instruction. i have seen the results of people abusing the system. i have seen deaths and destruction and pain and poverty. and what he wants for this country is the opposite. >> mayor, we spoke several times during the campaign. you had a chance to meet with the harris campaign. did you see and hear this sentiment at the level that it turned out at the

ballot box in recent weeks before the election? >> we just saw people being exercised. people chose between -- they didn't choose between democrat and republican. the choice was between two people. people chose president-elect trump, the good and the bad and they made a decision that the good they saw was going to outweigh the bad. these are things i think it's a personal choice , individual choices. the majority of latinos voting for trump in this light, despite his rhetoric , elections really made a mandate for what the latino community had been saying for years. don't take the latino vote for granted. that's what we saw here. >> certainly did not see -- certainly send that message. mayor trevino, i appreciate seeing you. thank you. >> no food, no water, no power,
