>> the market is up 180. we have turned full circle. democracy works. we have a president designate and i want to thank everybody who helped me all the way through today. ashley and elizabeth, louis goldmark if you are there in key states. it is yours. >> stuart, thank you very much. you were speaking after hillary clinton's remarks. we are getting word that former president george w. bush has called donald trump to congratulate him on his election victory and saying he was praying for his success. but the president and laura bush indicated that when they voted they left the president column blank. they didn't put it a sign in. they left it blank. obviously they didn't vote for hillary clinton for donald trump. bygones are bygones. even with the likes of mitt romney will come together for the new president elect. that is the case. we case.

we've seen that today exercise rather eloquently moments ago and a very classic investment speech even though tim kaine did get a zinger in there and his remarks to say she won the popular vote, but anyway, it's america. we are looking at this, but the stocks have swung at about a thousand plus point range over just the last 12 hours or so, now close to 200. the people's transition of power and all the fears back and forth having mitigated somewhat sharp turns or nothing unusual and you'll probably see a lot more sharp turn. talk now that the federal reserve is a hike in interest rates. hard to say. i've got some experts as we await president obwho will be speaking in a few moments. he already called donald trump right after his victory to wish him well. just to be a fly on the wall on

thursday they've got a lot of nasty things to say about each other. this is what happens in politics and normally we look at those days afterwards whenever one shakes hands and moves on and makes a nasty face. charlie gasparino. >> a little bit too contrived for me. we've got the playbook and they were following it too quickly. i don't like it. a thousand points thing you mentioned earlier. that is not right. >> we still have economic problem, we're trading on hopes, maybe some beliefs. at end of the day the proof is in the pudding. we haven't mixed the pudding. neil: obviously everyone is watching tone, charles payne and tenor on both sides. whether this is peaceful

transition, avoid the kind of market extremes that come up. you can control that. what do you think? >> well, it began with donald trump's acceptance speech. he blew away all the naysayers. everybody thought he would be demagogue and have all the power and come out, he, it was really perfect acceptance speech. even the, when huma abedin called kellyanne price, from what i read and understand, that was perfect conversation. now of course we see hillary clinton, this is different than "brexit." "brexit" is being litigated in many different ways, in the court systems over there. economists over there are scared and everything else. most people are now, okay, listen, donald trump has congress that he he wants. putting in plans that he wants. we're going to he see exactly what happens. i agree with scott, maybe we'll have volatility, you have to buy great stocks that you think will do well next four years. >> i agree. neil: charlie gasparino, one of the things we have seen, that

the peso coming off of its lows earlier on, maybe this won't be too damaging to mexico. i don't know where status of the wall is. but what, and how these markets are, i think calming down. i don't want to jump the gun. they're calmer. >> they will to up and down. we'll get volatility. fed will probably raise rates at some point. here is what i couldn't understand about the trump selloff and hillary relief rally. trump's economic policies are pro-growth as you can get. they are designed by reaganesque people art laffer, cutting tax rates, not huge tax rates and cutting business taxes, corporation taxes. he is about loose owning regulations. why that is not buy signal for stocks perplexed me. better than anything hillary clinton planned including capital gains tax increases, when you qualify for the increase and when you don't.

i was out with bunch of sophisticated traders, i was at a party -- neil: wait a minute. you were at a party when we were working our heinies off? >> it is in my contract. >> we stayed until 3:00 in the morning. he is out partying. neil: where is charlie? >> i was tweeting. neil: all right. all right. i feel better. >> if you listen to people, a lot of democrats were in the room, they were sitting there, you buy a market -- listen, we don't have divided government anymore. we'll have tax reform. think about -- neil: he has run of the table. i want to bring nicole up at new york stock exchange, bring you into the mix here. what is moving right now? i was told earlier on there were a lot of trump plays in there. defense stocks are favored earlier on. how is the trump president elect thing is working out? >> started at great surprise before the opening bell. futures were looking down a

couple hundred points. the we're seeing everything come back to the unchanged line. gold was up 60 bucks. now it is updollars. the dow was tanking. now up 157 point. short time ago it was 130 point away from intraday record high for the dow jones industrial average. vix to the downside. we're taking a breather here. they're really digesting it. health care stocks on the move. neil: nicole, stay there. scott, you want to come in? i want to show the white house. we're waiting for the president who will comment on donald trump. we'll hear whether he has nasty things to say. his candidate lost. his agenda stymied after two

terms donald trump promising to reverse all of that. scott, what do you make of this? >> number one only thing he couldn't fix with pen and paper. i agree with the nicole. if you look at boards, doesn't think anything changed except one thing. the bonds are truth sire rum. telling us he is pro-growth and low tax. 2% on 10-year yield. we began the year 2.21. we might make a run towards that. keep eye on bonds. that is the truth serum. >> highest level since january. this 2% for the 10-year bond. if we close at these levels, the highest levels since january. we haven't seen that. that is unusual. >> neil, hedge funds bought into this last night. takes wall street a while to sort of get it sometimes. the initial reaction is x. then over time the markets are much more, much more adaptive and much more accurate. what the hedge fund community last night. i am telling you i was with

major players. they were buying. neil: they were buying when they dropped? >> when they saw futures going down, they were putting on positions to buy the market. it's a pro-growth economy. neil: we're looking at barack obama putting finishing touches, jerk, moron. i'm kidding. i'm kidding. charles, when you see that, every president worries about his legacy. he was obviously for hillary clinton and she would continue it, donald trump promise toddies man he will. donald trump is pragmatic businessman. we all covered him. he might not be as quite as fiery or combustible as a lot of people are saying he will be. what is your sense first 100 days after trump administration would look like? >> i think obamacare has to be front and center. more important than anything else. more important than the wall or immigration laws. that was the thing that got him moving in the polls even before comey. >> good point. >> this is the one thing i think, average household, average middle class family

understands. they want to see that thing repealed. they want to see it fixed. then after that, he will have a grace period to get all other things done he wants to get done. >> that is a great point. think about it this way, obamacare premium hikes were massive tax increase on middle class. >> yeah. >> if you are taxing the middle class, that is a recipe for political disaster. that is what happened in the last six weeks. neil: i always wonder too, scott shellady, this constant bashing% of the rich, many people don't trust the rich out there, it got kind of old. a lot of people aspire to become the next charles payne. but, i wonder if hillary clinton and the democratic ticket in general, the democratic party by doctrine, you know, pushed it to far to the point where they kind of made everyone who had money a suspicious character and it boomeranged in a country that kind of likes to succeed? >> yeah, we were talking about that on the trading desks about

half hour ago, neil. almost like you're listening. neil: i really was. >> they turned the middle class into republicans. entire middle class. neil: much better put. >> yeah. so that is the phenomenon that we were mentioning. >> although the popular vote is pretty -- neil: what do you make of that, by the way, scott? p popular very, very close. she wracked that up -- racked that up in california and that added to it, as ben stein was telling us last night. you will have anomalies where the democrat picks up popular vote, loses the electoral vote, tim kaine pounced on that today. do you think he should have done that? was this place to do it today? >> no, i don't think it was. i listened to her entire speech, i thought it was very good, very good speech. the rhetoric he had, no place for the fact we had following rules. all we can do is follow the rules. play the opponent in front of

us. can't do anything else. that is what he did. >> trump won three key states by about 100,000? neil: by the way, i'm betting that the president will >> at this moment? i don't think so. i bet you a buck that he doesn't. neil: rely? neil: i will raise that. >> put a flag in the ground on obamacare and executive orders? >> i don't think he does it there. neil: nicole, you were still there, i'm sorry. >> right to your point about how with the middle class, a lot of these guys who used make a lot of money back in the day. they don't make that kind of money. a lot are regular class, when she came out with the speech today you heard a lost boos on floor of new york stock exchange. there is that feeling, they're not ready for her policies. they want to see economic growth, jobs, job growth and a change in washington. they have had enough for eight

years. neil: you know, i don't know how you guys feel about this, i always thought campaigning she was all i.q. and trump was eq. he got people in the gut and in the heart. she resonated with the mind and wonkiness. ideally you have to have both. err on the side of eq. >> she did, i mean, the idea took a whole team, that it take as whole team to put together a tweet. neil: takes a village. >> a village. >> he has likability issue. neil: that was it. >> she let her guard down, what people are going to remember. >> shy had great experience. >> he had likability issue too. i think real issue was this. i think what it came down to, always the economy, and economy was never that great. obamacare premiums is a tax increase on the middle class. then you throw on absurdity of james comey going back and forth. he basically indicted her and

didn't indict her. >> obama wanted to fix the election would have put increases on december 1st, not november 1st. neil: not announced them. he didn't have to announce them. mitch mcconnell, the senate republican leader and will likely be the majority leader as he has been in this session, in the next session, no one else is coming, gunning for him with that job. he will be speaking to the press, laying out strategy for the senate, much as speaker paul ryan just outlined about 20 minutes ago for the house. you know, if you think about it, nicole, republicans have the complete run of the table which barack obama did when he came into power eight years ago. >> right. neil: obama had it for two years. but boy, he used that for all it was worth. >> i got to tell you, that brought nervousness as well. everybody was expecting, sometimes they were expecting somewhat after stalemate if she won, had republican congress would have much of the same but

much of a stalemate. you have changing of guard and republicans in play across the board, everybody had uncertainty at first. why you saw the knee-jerk reaction. to charlie's point, i certainly heard people were buying overnight as soon as they saw the big dips. neil: it got really crazy. >> it would have been a 1000 point decline at one point. >> just shaky in the near term. >> other point, on wall street, traders talk about gridlock is good, it was actually never really that good. bill clinton last six years ruled with no gridlock and we had a great economy. donald trump has smart things and appoints smart people. he has good people around him. rudy giuliani and steve minichin. >> we talked about obamacare and

infrastructure thing. that w main focus on white house report we talked about last week. all the stocks are through the roof. neil: left of your screen by the way, lonlong good-bye. hillary clinton with her husband bill. with bill clinton there was debate what do you call him, first dude, first guy, first husband, first man. they don't have to worry bit. melania is coming to the white house. i digress. right of the screen, you heard it here first, running bet with charles payne here, i think the president will make note of the fact that his candidate won the popular vote and did not win the electoral vote. you think he will be above that? >> today. he will get it in before leaves. >> i bet you he hints at it. neil: very close as you an see. >> infrastructure stuff, one of the reasons why i think the peso is not down more is because, when you start adding up what he wants to do, donald trump wants to spend infrastructure wise

$500 billion. how do you build a wall to do that? the wall itself by some of the estimates hundreds of billions, weren't you? >> infrastructure, according to the engineering society, our infrastructure needs are $3.9 trillion, to bring it up to speed. >> he wants to spend 500 billion plus build a wall. >> i think the wall is separate. we're talking about bridges, tunnels. >> i agree with you. i'm saying reason why peso is up, he will not build the wall for a while. neil: i also think, we all covered him, particularly charlie, in your case, in early reporting days, i have for better part of 30 years he is pragmatic businessman. he is for cutting deals, moving and getting stuff out of the in box. a lot of people have read dogmatic things what he said. that is obviously for effect and because he does feel passionate about the issues but he is very flexible. >> i wonder how passionate he is about certain issues.

the problem he has republican congress, that is good thing. he will have to do stuff on immigration. i'm not saying he builds a wall. something on tax policy. neil: could be invisible wall. >> part of it can be. do tax reform and regulatory reform because levers are in place. paul ryan, i know they get along, scaramucci will bring the two guys together. they will break bread. neil: i heard paul ryan and mention and state donald trump's name six different times in remarks. >> right. neil: we had trouble clawing that out of him in this campaign. everyone love as winner, charles. >> it's beautiful thing. everybody gets a chance to really exercise the power they always dreamed off so. >> not sure i love him. i don't love donald trump. i like the fact he has certain policies. we have republican congress. he ran a crazy campaign. he won but -- neil: he won. nicole what do you think?

what are markets waiting for when they look at donald trump in these days before the inauguration january 20th? will they move a lot based on something he says? >> historically, historically when the party changes you probably get a down arrow between now election day and inauguration day. we saw a party change. you might see down arrows going by history. certain sectors are on the move. defense stocks will be higher. he will increase military spending. solar stocks lower because he is bringing back the coal indus estray. pharmaceuticals they're jumping because they don't have to worry about hillary coming down on drug pricing. >> don't chase them. >> one sentence after another. say this about paul ryan. he was put in the position in the first place to be a mediator, to be that kind of guy who will be a little more easy. neil: you know you're right. by the way donald trump is tweeting out here, or emailing i don't know, can a president have a tweet handle? >> i think so.

barack obama has one. i follow him on twitter. neil: donald trump said they said we could never do it. america is, you edefied all odds and history will remember the role you played in taking our country back with charlie gasparino criticizing him right now. >> i want to make one other point. nicole was right about all the sectors. she left out one major sector, the banks. if he has his way, he is going to reform and repeal parts of dodd-frank. neil: he is more aggressive on them than hillary was in a lot of that. >> attacking verbally but if you look at economic plans, he wants to get rid of dodd-frank. here is the thing he floated back, bringing back glass-steagall. neil: you can see financial stocks are up. some 6% or more. >> i would caution investors not to chase the drug stocks. neil: is that right? >> this is relief rally.

biotechs is where you want to be. biotechs stocks are doing well. most of the drug companies have antiquated business models. they have dying blockbuster drugs, thin pipelines. that is why mylan will buy a product and jack up the price 1000%. >> you like defense stocks, charles? >> absolutely nicole. neil: this is a chance for president obama. this is something enviable in our country, peaceful transition of power even in very nasty political seasons that end on good note. president obama. >> i shot a video some of you may have seen which i said to the american people, regardless of which side you were on in the election, regardless whether your candidate won or lost, the sun would come up in the morning and that is one bit of prognosticating that actually came true. the sun is up and i know everybody had a long night. i did as well. i had a chance to talk to

president-elect trump last night about 3:30 in the morning i think it was, to congratulate him winning election. i had a chance to invite him to the come to the white house tomorrow to talk about making sure there is successful transition between our presidencies. now, it is no secret that the president-elect and i have some pretty significant differences but remember, eight years ago, president bush and i had some pretty significant differences but president bush's team could not have been more professional and more gracious making sure we had a smooth transition so that we could hit the ground running. and one thing you realize quickly in this job, is that the presidency and the vice-presidency is bigger than any of us. so i have instructed my team to follow the example that president bush's team set eight years ago and work as hard as we can to make sure this is

successful transition for the president-elect. because, we are now all rooting for his success in uniting and leading the country. the peaceful transition of power is one of the hallmarks of our democracy, and over the next few months we are going to show that to the world. i also had a chance last night to speak with secretary clinton and i just had a chance to hear her remarks. i could not be prouder of her. she has lived an extraordinary life of public service. she was a great first lady. she was an outstanding senator for the state of new york, and, she could not have been a better secretary of state. i'm you proud of her. a lot of americans look up to her. her candidacy and nomination was historic and sends a message to our daughters all across the country that they can achieve at

the highest levels of politics. i'm absolutely confident she and president clinton will do great work for people here in the united states and around the world. everybody is sad when their side loses an election. but the day after we have to remember that we're actually all on one team. this is an intermural scrimmage. we're not democrats first, we're not republicans first, we are americans first. we're patriots first. we all want what's best for this country. that's what i heard in mr. trump's remarks last night. that's what i heard when i spoke to him directly, and i was heartened by that. that's what the country needs. a sense ever unity, a sense of

inclusion, a respect for our institutions, our way of life, rule of law, and a respect for each other. i hope that he maintains that spirit throughout this transition and i certainly hope that is how his presidency has a chance to begin. i also told my team today to keep their heads-up because the remarkable work that they have done day in, day out, often without a lot of fanfare, often with without a lot of attention, work in agencies, work in obscure areas of policy that make government run better and make it more responsive, and make it more fish sent, and -- efficient and make it more

service-friendly so that it's actually helping more people, that remarkable work has left the next president with a stronger, better country than the one that existed eight years ago. so win or lose in this election, that was always our mission, that was our mission from day one. and everyone on my team should be extraordinarily proud of everything that they have done, and so should all of the americans that i have had a chance to meet all across this country, who do hard work building on that progress every single day. teachers in schools, doctors in e.r. clinic, small businesses, putting their all into starting something up, making sure they're treating their employees well. all the important work that's done by moms and dads and families and congregations in

every state. the work of perfecting this union. so this was a long and hard-fought campaign. a lot of our fellow americans are ex-assaulting today. a lot of lot of americans are less so. that is the nature of campaigns and nature of democracy. it is hard and sometimes contentious and noisy. it is not always inspiring. to the young people who got into politics for the first time, and maybe disappointed by the results, i just want you to know, you have to stay encouraged. don't get cynical. don't ever think you can't make a difference. as secretary clinton said this morning, fighting for what is right is worth it.

sometimes you lose an argument. sometimes you lose an election. the path this country has taken has never been a straight line. we zig and zag, and sometimes we move in ways that some people think is forward and others think is moving back. and that's okay. i've lost elections before. joe hasn't but you know. [laughter]. so i've been, i've been sort -- >> you beat me badly. >> that's the way politics works sometimes. we try really hard to persuade people that we're right. and then people vote. and then if we lose, we learn

from our mistakes, we do some reflection. we lick our wounds, we brush ourselves off, we get back in the arena. we go at it. we try even harder the next time. the point though is that we all go forward, with the presumption of good faith in our fellow citizens. because that presumption of good faith is essential to vibrant and functioning democracy. that is how this country has moved forward for 240 years. that is how we pushed boundaries and promoted freedom around the world. that is how we expanded the rights of our founding to reach owl of our citizens. that is how we have come this far. i'm confident this incredible journey we're on as americans will go on. and i'm looking forward to doing everything that i can to make sure that the next president is

successful in that. i have said before, i think of this job as being a relay runner. you take the baton, you run your best race, and hopefully by the time you hand it off, you're a little further ahead. you made a little progress. and i can say that we've done that and i want to make sure that handoff is well-executed un the same team. thank you very much. everybody. [shouting] [applause] neil: all right. just as i predicted -- [laughter]. he wouldn't make a reference to the popular vote thing versus the electoral vote thing. oh, my god, i don't know what charles payne wants. you are just hearing the president wrap up here. this is sort of a ritual of americana here. saying we're all rooting for donald trump's success. okay. but he did make a remark there,

but again in this forgiving, magnanimous atmosphere, you don't want to get too picky. this is the very familiar, kind of attacks he had against donald trump had of president bush had of him seeking highest office. i was looking at this that president bush never said he was clueless and unqualified on all matters of substance, or did president bush call him a total embarassment of incoherent and inconsistent foreign policy initiatives would endanger us all. not once did i hear are president bush say, come on man! >> come on, man. neil: it is nice. >> listen i think as americans we should be proud. that is one of the reasons the market is up. the wildcard, donald trump, was magnanimous. he was great and, i think a lot of people who didn't vote for him have to feel they listened to him, feel better. some don't feel a lot better. no matter where you are on this

side, if you don't vote for donald trump after last night you moved it over a little bit. i think it will be fantastic. i really do. i think it will. >> donald has been selling himself, in pretty good way to people who have it had him for years. he negotiated with all those banks, with all those bondholders, that wanted to rip his throats out. he actually negotiated well. he didn't put himself in the poor house totally. i could see him going to obama and charming the hell out of hill. he is good at that. >> they're both charmers in that sentence. who outcharms the other. who has more on the line in that meeting? >> i don't think that is the key meeting. i think the key meeting -- neil: there will be multiple meetings. >> i think the key meeting for donald trump in terms of policy will be with paul ryan. can scaramucci, can somebody go in there an bridge that gap to get some stuff done. obviously -- if you think obama said some stuff -- >> do you think the american public bridged that gap last

night? >> hopefully. personalities -- neil: barack obama didn't have to reach across the aisle when he started. he made somes attempts because he didn't need to because he run of the table with democrats. donald trump will be in that position as well. what do you think he does? does he care what president obama thinks or other liberals? >> if i'm barack obama i think what happened to barack obama. barack obama, even though he had the two years, there were a lot of things he wanted to get done he did not get done. they really squandered a lot, nancy pelosi wanted her chunk. harry reid wanted his chunk. when he got in there there was infighting. it wasn't republicans. neil: he should haved a lot of stuff in there. >> it could have been more. >> i don't know about that. >> they didn't think kennedy was going to die. they thought they had a lot of time. they thought they had four years they squabbled over things if i'm donald trump, we're not going to squabble. i know you've been there a long time. we'll push through the agenda with urgency.

>> having that relationship with ryan is so important i believe. does he go, let's build a wall, let's clamp down on immigration, let's repeal nafta, which i don't think he will do. or does he say, let's do tax reform. get the economy going, get rid of regulation. >> do tax reform, get rid of regulation. >> if he does that, that's the play with ryan. if he doesn't do that, he and ryan will be at each other -- >> infrastructure. you start with the tax stuff. neil: the wall? >> first thing is infrastructure. neil: steve russell is here. >> obamacare. those are two you got to do. neil: from fine state of oklahoma. congressman russell i harken back to history here. jimmy carter had very acrimonious, tense relationship with tip o'neill, robert byrd, senate democratic leader. those guys ended up getting along better with ronald reagan than someone in their own party. we know there has been a lost friction among republicans towards donald trump. a lot of that eased in the waning weeks of the campaign but

how do you think everyone will get along in your party? >> i think we were absolutely euphoric. what we saw last night was that the people still have a voice and that the power still belongs to the people. now we're seeing a gracious transition of government. that makes you proud to feel you're an american. the congress has been wanting to work on policy -- neil: those who grudgingly went to mr. trump, whether they will read the writing on the wall say sure, he was elected against all odds. he carried a lot of them to the finish line, not the other way around. so he kind of in the driver's seat, right? >> keep in mind this. president-elect trump is there because republicans voted for him and got behind him in massive numbers from rural, suburbs. let's not forget the fact that the republican party stood behind their candidate and he is now the president-elect. neil: i'm till with charlie

gasparino and charles payne. he has a point. republicans wept back to the fold and that was in doubt recently as a few days ago. it made a big difference. some states it might have had a dramatic difference. you're donald trump. you railed against the establishment but -- how do you play that. >> i would play that, i would not, obamacare will be very difficult to repeal. talk to any doctor, this stuff is so big. you can do it. >> not with $6500 with unaffordable care act, will get easier with reconciliation. >> put the genie back in the bottle. it will take five years. neil: forget about it, the genie left the bottle. >> there is no bottle. >> one thing you should do with obamacare, if you really want to know, talk to a doctor, all the procedures that are in place. neil: your point a lot easier said than done. >> infrastructure, i'm telling

you it is budget-busting. >> they're going to do it. >> my point is, if he smarts goes to ryan talks about taxes regulation, and gets economy going, once the economy is going you can spend and deal with obamacare. >> american people want jobs immediately. >> that is easiest way to get it. neil: ryan bigger deficit before it eases it up. >> get them out there with jackhammers. neil: congressman, what do you make of that. think about it, normally when you want to goose the economy you do run further into deficit spending and get the bang of the buck years out. ronald reagan realized that, a lot of that money coming in republicans in power spent it and both parties have done this. would you advocate or support a president trump dramatically building up infrastructure, immigration, that could cost a whole lot of money and could compound our deficit ills but

see it as investment that could pay dividends doesn't road? >> i think the president-elect has an opportunity to sell a whole package. look, if we take unaffordable care act and put it back in the free market, it is deregulated, insurers will be scrambling to lower medical costs. if we have lower tax base, dollars come back to our shores. if we have bilateral trade agreements instead of massive constructs we'll see trade opportunity. neil: i just want to be clear. >> a lot of positive things here. neil: deficits will get worse before they get better, it would be natural, right? >> we've seen that from administration to administration. that is true. you have to have money to spend it. not leave out the big things. we have as send ant russia. a very stiff competitor in china. we have to have defense dollars and good diplomacy with that to secure our markets. >> where does he prior e prioritize? >> we got to start with tax.

>> i agree with that. start with taxes and regulations you build an economy. neil: furs 100 days you are talking about immediate cut donald trump but as reform you would put that immediately i can't think priority? >> one other thing, neil, we have to have article i protections to restore power to people and congress and elected body. we've seen agencies and departments put everything out there that have stymied and destroyed businesses, and we have to put that power back into the hands of congress. and let these fees and fines go into the treasury instead of in their departments. i hope we get that passed within the first 100 days. neil: congressman russell. i want to thank you. charles payne, your final thoughts on that and how you think markets would respond to good spending or tax initiatives up friend, to sort of goose the economy. meant to generate jobs, tax revenue. we know that can take some time.

how do you think markets respond? >> markets want to see lower taxes an fewer regulation. i think the american people and public -- neil: would the bond market welcome deficit spending? >> not necessarily the bond market but i think equity markets would do very well. we knew coming into this both candidates talked about spending a whole lot of money. american people who switched their votes from democrat to republican, want jobs. they want to see people with hard hats and drills and everything else. neil: they would be for a little bit of. >> infrastructure spending plans are notoriously weak. >> i'm not saying whether they work or not, that was cornerstone promise. that is how you win wisconsin. that is how you won michigan and pennsylvania. >> charles, you could keep that and get economy going first and then do it. neil: to the congressman's point, taxes abroad to bring trillions back. we'll see. biggest surprise in the president's remarks mentioning

the popular vote [laughter]. he didn't. >> i thought, he came out and said tally, here you go you won it at the gate. >> possible that trump could win popular vote? >> it is possible. >> that is pretty damn close. neil: two million for a while. again it is hard to say. california was running that up last night when it came in as usually the case. we shall see. anything can happen. i try to figure out how i make good on the bet. >> pumpkin spiced lattes this way. neil: doesn't strike me as pumpkin spiced latte guy. have you tried pumpkin priced lattes. i wonder if herm can pain likes that. he is next. -- herman cain. i love getting more for less.

states, one guy who is not surprised is herman cain. he was talking about undercurrent of trump support out there and lot of people would rally around donald trump despite all the bashing he was getting in both parties and from the media which we'll discuss with joe concha in a minute. herman, first, welcome to you. >> thank you. neil: how does that work now? he made it. he is going to the white house. but there is still some of that, all those issues from the campaign. what does he do? >> i think the first thing that he does is that meets with the leaders in congress and say again, because he said it during the campaign, i know i have to work with the members of congress. i want to work with members of congress. here are my priorities which they already know. and then, go from there. i think that is step number one. i happen to believe that he will work with congress and he will constructively get some things moving. neil, i am more relieved this

morning all the nasty negative things you alluded to about donald trump, the american people didn't swallow that fool aid. they didn't. neil: bottom line they didn't care. >> bottom line, they didn't care. bottom line, they were feeling some real pain economically. they were feeling some real pain relative to obamacare. bottom line, they believed in somebody who believed that he can make a difference and i believe that. as you said, i believed it all along. bottom line, it didn't matter to the people. neil: what turned a lot people, comey and email stuff. i followed the polls very, very closely, what good ones there were. >> right. neil: much of his traction was coming when we found out the affordable care act wasn't so affordable and premium hikes were some doozies and he pounded that relentlessly. then came the email stuff you could argue did or didn't move the needle.

they were washes out by comey's reversal. >> right. neil: that is real issue that ironically that turned election around, actual issue with nothing to do with politics or anything like that. >> what i heard most a lot of my listeners over past couple months. they got numb to the whole email scandal, they really had, but they kept going back to the benghazi lies. that stuck in people's minds, neil, more than the email thing. they were disappointed that the justice department didn't go forward with an indictment. they were disappointed when comey came out and did his seesaw back and forth. they became numb to that. they went back to benghazi lies. they went back to mishandling of information. and they went back to the pain they are feeling in their lives right now, and donald trump addressed that pain with specific is solutions, the economy, energy independence, rebuilding the military, and the whole list goes down, and

protecting first and second amendment. those are very specific things i believe people ultimately responded toed to. neil, herman cain, always good to see you. >> good to be with you, neil. neil: the polls were wrong, a lot of pundits were wrong, a lot of media was wrong, consensus sort of type of journal system wrong. now all we have left in its wake are nasty headlines about donald trump, even stories that continue today how could it have happened? how could the wrong guy have won. very close to that, joe concha, "the hill" media reporter with us right now. joe, the media would obviously want to step back and reassess this. there is very little soul-searching going on outside of saying polls got it wrong. but not that they got it wrong. there is a difference, is there not. >> a huge difference, neil. what we saw here, as a result of

this is that the traditional media machine is now a shadow of itself in terms of influence. think about what trump said. this was the greatest pile-on in political media history and he was right. and one poll that always stands out at me, neil, "usa today"-suffolk, americans felt by 10 to one ratio that the media was rooting for hillary clinton to win. within that poll, even clinton supporters, majority of, that they felt trump was getting a raw deal and media was biased against him. clinton supporters. think about it. the we talked abt it time and again. quote approval by clinton campaign "new york times" sending reporter over. three instances of "politico" reporters sending reporters for stories in advance. the vice-chair of the dnc sending debate questions in advance. cnbc chief washington correspondent asking a campaign what should i ask jeb bush when he was leader in terms of the pac within the republican

primary? all of these things, neil, show that it was overwhelmingly evidence that the media was colluding, advising, engaging in media malfeasance. it was like old e.f. hutton come mesh ales. when e.f. hutton talked they listened. when the media talked people used to listen. if they had he would have lost by 20 points. in that case he will have more than 300 electoral votes. neil: how will he present himself president-elect and president trump. he made no secret he can't stand media. cites them at rallies, always did. saying much the same now. i can picture his first press conference, what do you want onion head? i don't know. he is guy not afraid to go of at media. most politicians of any stripe, certainly president very careful of that. he doesn't care. he probably has the sense, look, it hasn't hurt me. look at me now, i'm president of the united states? >> look. his whole narrative was, rigged

system. around people always thought that applied to government but he included media in every single rally terms of it the rigged system. what you had was a media colluding with government, at least one party within it. and that fleshes out in all the polls we see neil. we saw ratios of 23 one, negative trump stories to positive. running. americans saw this around they said, yes we sight too. you know what? donald trump is right. maybe everything is rigged and that includes the mainstream media. neil: will the mainstream media be could youd by him or afraid of him or go on the attack and keep looking for problems? >> i would hope and pray they would learn from all this, but you know the profits were so good during this campaign, that apparently it is profitable to attack donald trump. there is some good news here though, neil. we have a list at "the hill" of all the celebrities that said

they would be not only moving out of the country but off the planet itself. lena dunham is going to vancouver. i have a uber car right outside of the car right now if she needs to get to the airport. you have cher, going to jupiter. she named a planet which is impossible to do with space travel. jon stewart is going to space. has not specified a planet. trump said it, he would kick people out. population will be shrinking in hollywood, neil. neil: i wouldn't count on it my friend. something tells me that is not etched in stone. joe concha of "the hill." one of the best readers of media out there. >> thank you for the kind words. neil: we're learning that israel's benjamin netanyahu among other world leaders talking to donald trump on phone, inviting him for a meeting in you'd as first opportunity that would be on the part of mr. trump to mr. netanyahu. they gotten along famously in the days before mr. netanyahu

was israeli prime minister and was a new york city friendship. they struck up a tight friendship. that could say a lot how the relationship would go with israel. occurring at same time you get strange bedfellows including evangelicals voting for donald trump with all the warts and stuff in his past. tony perkins was one first to say that to me. family research council president with me, right now, when he raised eyebrows. he said he looked beyond just some of the personal quality of mr. trump, but just the message that he was sending. tony, when i looked at those evangelical numbers, two to one, three to one in favor of mr. trump over hillary clinton, what did you make of that? >> well, neil, you're right, he actually sent records, getting 81% of the evangelical vote yesterday. what it boils down same process i went through. look at choice before us, look what he did. first he chose a pro-life

conservative running mate. he did not try to weaken the party's platform. he also laid out a list, a of potential justs he said were pro-life. we never had republican nominee do this i think they basically closed the deal in the last debate when he went into late-term abortion in the first 15 minutes, said he would appoint pro-life justices to the supreme court. the exit polling suggests that many of those individuals -- neil: that is big issue, tony. you're right. i failed to see the magnitude of it until they did tracking polls the next day, particularly among women that stuck. i was surprised at that. >> it was because they were there were a lot of evangelicals quite frankly sitting on the sidelines and they were ambivalent about the choice before them. even hostile before the choice before them. when he was so clear and concise about his pro-life views and the issue of late-term abortion, that closed the deal for many of them. neil: let me ask you as a man

who tries to do the right thing and bridge divides, there is lot of pressure on donald trump, a lot of pressure on democrats to get along, get past nastiness of the campaign but not completely cave to the other. it is a delicate balance. ronald reagan was good at it. bill clinton when republicans took over the house was very good at it. how do you think donald trump will be at it? >> you know there are types, when i have sat down with him in private, when you sit with him in private, much different individual in the stage. almost if he flips a switch to become entertainer on the stage. as in person, he is very, i will use the word shock people, he has humility about him. he sits and listens and is respectful. donald trump has the capacity to be very respectful of others including his opponents, not compromising on principle nor think promises that he made but

do so in a way that maybe campaign rhetoric is left behind. we're not talking about crooked so-and-so or lying so-and-so. we're talking about policies of making america great again and how we're going to do that we're living in a much different world than what we had when ronald reagan was president. we're very divided country. we saw it last night and see it with every election. i think a lot can be accomplished by how we approach it. i do believe based on my knowledge of donald trump he has the capacity to do that. neil: tony perkins. family research council president. tony, thank you very much. >> thanks, neil. neil: look at stocks and what is going on with a strong market now stablizing after panicking. but again this is extreme behavior. we're going to get the read right now from all those republican stalwarts including the likes of ohio governor kasich, even mitt romney, who suddenly are extending an olive branch. how do you think that is going? after this.

..

>> donald trump is going to be our president. we owe him an open mind and a chance to lead. >> so i have instructed my team to follow the examples that resident bush's teams that eight years ago and work as hard as we can to make sure that this is a successful transition for the president-elect. because we are now all rooting for his success in uniting and leading the country. neil: well, they are saying all the right words. somehow i always wonder when people say that about a republican or a democrat. i don't know. in this very nasty campaign to extend olive branches on both sides as we saw from president bush and his wife laura, wishing congratulations.

even mitt romney who fought it every step of the way, wishing him well and that he is their future president. you're beginning to see that everyone is sort of gathering around the new president and hoping that he does well and that he deserves this republic to quote mr. romney. anyway, jeff flock in columbus, ohio, what happens next? the idea specially with john kasich and the governor but even without support, even writing and a different name on his ballot, john mccain was not one of those who could write in. donald trump still won the state. so what's the fallout there? >> you know, john kasich had good plans today and tomorrow. he was going to give a big speech about the future of europe are broken party and light of donald trump's loss. the only problem of course is donald trump didn't lose. maybe if you don't believe it

went democrat to say nice things about republicans, may be believed republicans like k-6 three. the american people has spoken in a time to come together. congratulations to donald trump. to put the treat up for mitt romney who is to point out call donald trump a phony, a fraud if it will go into a prolonged recession. he said today best wishes for a duly elected president. may his fate or he speech his guide in preserving the republicans aim. lastly, as you point out from the bushes we've heard at least one bush, bush 41. barbara and i congratulate donald trump, wish him well. he didn't vote for donald trump either. neither did his sons. he played the game. there you go. he played the game after it's over somebody whence cometh somebody visits and we come together. that is what hillary clinton would've wanted had she won and

this is what we do. neil: it's an amiable quality in our country that it gets nasty. everyone at least gives the appearance of getting along in the end. i would never have mentioned those comments. lovely full screen. i apologize for that. the format of american express so much more one of the legends of wall street and his take on this. i'm looking at all of this and the reaction and i'm beginning to think it's off to a promising start. things could change after a divisive election we see both sides trying to reach across the aisle even within the republican party. republicans trying to reach across to him. what do you think? >> that is a good thing to happen. it will break down fairly quickly on the policy is. neil: even within the republican party? >> no, i think they'll come together. the thing that donald trump said he was going to do our thanks

republicans can get around. regulations. neil: not even cutting taxes? >> regulations on its own without any law. all he has to do is reverse the number of the regulation that obama did. he has a chance to name a huge number of appointments, which now under the rules that harry reid set up only as a majority in the senate, not the 60 votes anymore. so they will be able to get all of his appointees done quickly on the fcc. neil: and you're making a push to make sure they have control of the senate where they would do that. >> the roles of harry reid set up for his convenience or in the combat to haunt the democrats but now when the republicans lose the sameoles they will be

able to do a lot more quickly, which took them -- to the second george bush almost a year. >> remember he had went from republican to the senator democrat. he wasn't dealing with the republican senate anymore. let me ask you a little bit and then mix in a corporate background. when he took over american express, you had a brief period at the start to send a message, to get stuff done. a lot is made of the president's first hundred days going back to fdr, but we judge presidents and how they do in the roughly two and a half months. so if you are donald trump january 20th, you're in. play up what you do. i get as my can in all the administrative oddities so they can start to change policies.

i reverse all of the regulations that obama put in place that are impeding growth. donald trump's major mansion is how we give growth in the economy. the difference between the 2% growth rate in 4% growth rate is enormous and the effect that on the the economy, on jobs, is also normal. neil: wouldn't it be more dramatic with the taxes cut? >> you can do them exactly. there are a number of tax plans that have been put together by paul lyons groups. they are all flatter, broader, more consumption oriented with fewer exceptions. almost any of them would be better than the mess we have now. corporate tax system can be revised really easily. and now in the senate. that can be done.

that can get done. neil: you know, there's still a lot of tea parties left on capitol hill and a lot of them are very leery of spending. donald trump has indicated he is big infrastructure plans to boost defense spending without being very clear how that would be paid for. asking about taking money overseas and incentivizing a back. it packets back to a question at the outset about getting along with his own party. there is some parts of the party that are too keen on worsening deficits. >> i'm a tea party person. increasing deficits as well. investments to have to get made in infrastructure. neil: after starting to give a reagan had come with a bang in the revenue for the buck down the road. >> if he does some tax reform, particularly on the corporate side, i think people will go along with the spending on

infrastructure as long as it not bike paths. neil: would he have against bike paths? >> of the bike paths. if someone wants one let them take it. train to tell me what the wall street reaction of this when it looked like hillary was going to win and win. when it looks like even last night it was all falling apart it was tumbling. it is stabilized today. >> as i recall last night the future is cut down to about 800 points down. i'm not sure if that we. it was probably a three-month future. by the time i got up this morning i think it was down to 300. the market opening was flat in the market was. it's pretty extreme. it was an overreaction initially. neil: is this gain an

overreaction? >> i don't know. i think the market could do very well. just the regulation that helps health care. that helps the consumer durables or that helps manufacturing. that helps energy. major sectors. if we start to do something about dog crate, that will help the financial sector. dog crate is a bloody disaster. we do away with obamacare and we will be an enormous boost to small businesses in this country. those things can have an immediate set from a short-term effect. neil: we've had a long bull market and a lot of people say bull markets can't be around forever. for that matter first all trump or hillary clinton getting elected. >> it may. i would trade a bull market for growth in the economy.

i really want to see -- neil: i like lee said that. >> that's the way i feel. i'm an american before an asset manager. neil: normally the market will follow suit. >> ultimately. neil: would you buy the galaxy's levels? >> last night about 3:00 in the morning i sent an e-mail to my advisor has said we've got rid to get ready to buy futures in the morning but the morning wasn't worth it anymore. neil: your biggest worry in this first hundred days of the trump administration? >> my biggest worry is something happens in trade. international trade is important to our economic growth in the growth of the economies around the world and they are net winners to an economy. the problem is that there are losers as well and we have to figure out how we handle the businesses and the people that

are on the losing side of an overall win so that we can go ahead with trade treaties that make sense for us. neil: throughout the campaign, trump had a very populist message there that he was almost anti-any trade or at least the we've seen. does that lead you to think that we could get into some nasty trade wars? >> we could. if we do something like back in the 30s, if we start to block world trade in some significant way which i don't think will happen, that would have a negative effect. we are putting together two things that don't belong together. one has to do with trade balance in the other has to do with companies that move out of the united states and they are fundamentally different factors affecting it. the reasons companies latest

their cost of operation is too high. regulations too high, taxes to love his labor mobility is too low. neil: real quickly, such a great guy. let's say four continues on with this plan to build a lot of small parts of mexico. they're trying to sell them. you and i pay that tax. do you think the threat alone will get them to stop or they provide the environment in this country where it's not necessary for a country to move. >> you do the latter. it's not up to them to make the environment. but you can't build the walls to keep companies or people here. you've got to have an environment where they choose to stay here and that can be done. neil: great seeing you again. thank you vary, very much.

i am not sure he would love this news here, but we are getting new set of new hampshire. one of the senate seats being bought over republican kelley ayotte feet. the governor has said she wants it. i believe they had said in new hampshire that automatically qualifies for a recount. we do know that senator ayotte has not needed to raise but it is a pickup for the democrats in the end it would represent the third pick up that they had here. it would not necessarily following this case more change to make up of the republican senate, especially now for the republican president coming in to be the tiebreaker in any event. this isn't even the tiebreaker. i want to get reaction with the former virginia governor jim gilmore. what do you make of that is too soon to say and we are not saying this is official saying what, i got to see. at the democratic pickup.

we'll have a closer senate than he thought. >> i spent a lot of time in new hampshire and i think they couldn't necessarily call the state yet. the point is the republicans are going to control the senate bill matter what. donald trump is going to be president of matter what. i love the people of new hampshire but at the end of the day kelley ayotte was a great senator. let's see how it shakes out. i believe it's in the margin of error that would automatically qualify for a recount. having said that, and the makeup of the hill right now, you would donald trump coming into a run at the table. he's got the house and senate, the reverse of a barack obama had when he came in. if you were advising him, what would you tell them to do to take full advantage of this unique opportunity. >> it didn't get virginia even though we all campaign very hard to get 30 speeches across

virginia for him as a matter of fact. neil: should've been 31. that was the problem. >> you asked me a question. here's the answer. just like your previous guest, it is essential the president-elect move forward on a dramatic growth economic policy for the united states. you'll be way out of the problem with the american people recognize we have to growth of revenue and grow the economy. the regulations and the higher taxes imposed in the last eight years of tamp down growth. we all know it to the people of the united states are aware of it in their daily lives and now they've elected a man to supercharge this economy and get the growth of twerp along and create something robust. i think that is why the markets are going up so much. the markets understand now we really had the chance to move this economy forward. clearly hillary clinton would never done have done that. >> you certainly been

magnanimous, so all the right things in the messages and signals are right. we will see how that follows. governor, thank you for taking the time. i appreciate it. neil: to the governor's point, donald trump took them over the finish line, maybe helped a few along the way to secure the senate and secure the house and keep them in republican hands. so what could those republicans come in many who are bashing him, learn from it? that's after this. as after a dvt blood clot,ital i sure had a lot to think about. what about the people i care about? ...including this little girl. and what if this happened again? i was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me? so i asked my doctor. and he recommended eliquis. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots

and reduces the risk of them happening again. yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. both made me turn around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily ...and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made eliquis the right treatment for me. ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you.

something pretty profound or she always does. one thing stuck with me and i want to bring it back. very good to have you. >> thanks for having me. god bless you and god bless america. neil: thank you good bread back at you. you reminded me even though hillary clinton would enjoy more support in the african-american community than donald trump, it wouldn't be by a wide margin there's a lot of angry, you're voters and sure enough in a lot of key states that turnout in the african-american community might've made all the difference. it certainly looks like it made a difference in florida and there wasn't enough hispanic support to offset it. so how does donald trump or have you think he takes it adage about? what does he do now to build on that improving trust? >> i think what donald trump should do is all those people that he met on the campaign

trail that were hopeless and herding, that cried out to him, i believe that got into donald trump, that it gave him a compassion and had to say that he may not have had before. what he should do is take that compassion, take that empathy and turn it into jobs for the inner cities or weights. turn it into educational opportunities, school choice like he promised. turn it into an opportunity to put money into the communities that so many who felt left behind. there are many people now i've talked to. they are worried, they are scared what is donald trump going to do? i want to ease the fears that those people. donald trump is a humble man. most people when they meet in person they can either believe he's the same person you see on television. he does have a heart for people and i think that part needs to go to work for the american

people. that's a donald trump has to do. he's got to show people he's an action man. not just a talker. neil: when i hear action on this is in applying to raise their initiative. maybe the account that worries we are going to spend a lot of money here and donald trump could be besting the deficit and maybe for all the right things bird now that he could come into this spending more at the outset than barack obama ever did. >> you know, donald trump says one of the reasons people put this country into donald trump's hand is because of the deficit, the $19 trillion deficit. i believe donald trump is banking heavily on that. he wants to keep his word to the people that are deficit is going to go down. with him being a businessman -- it will go down right away. that is like feeling than her ball caught on right away.

in his mind, it is in his heart and what i think we should do is the american people of all races we've got to stop dividing our country based on race and think about one another as americans. donald trump is an american who said what he was on the stump campaigning that the national deficit is a priority for him. he's going to put smart, shrewd people in place double cutaway tag numbers, do everything they need to do to get our economy up and running and are deficit down at a pace that will devastate. so he's got to be very shrewd and wise going forward. i believe he will surround himself with the best that our country has to offer in making sure he keeps his word to the american people. neil: i'd be interested in your final thoughts on what happened to those building blocks of

hillary clinton in the minority community, hispanic community extending that even among womene numbers obviously she needed. it tips the scale in several key states from ohio to florida, pennsylvania. what happened? >> i'll tell you this. hillary clinton never had the momentum and enthusiasm bernie sanders filed. she never could draw the crowd. many people, especially in certain communities have had the democratic promises that never came to fruition. what people did was take their hurt and harm in brokenness and hopelessness and took it to the polls. they took it to the voting booth to cry out, to let the world know, we don't like the direction that our country is going. it didn't help her to have those fbi investigations.

it didn't help her with the clinton foundations. the key leaks didn't help her. i'll say it again. i love president barack obama. i respect him, but i believe he did not take care of the people like he promised eight and four years ago and that hurt hillary. i will say this about the both of them. i was so proud when they came out and cuddle the divisiveness and said, you know what, we as a country have to come together. that is what every american wants. we want to heal and we want our country to begin to grow. that is why donald trump is the right man for the job. the political outsider who basically became a champion for those who are feeling voiceless. neil: you are right. there's a lot of magnanimous options on both died. >> i'm very excited for the country. neil: thank you very much. great seeing you again. >> god bless you, mr. caputo.

you are looking good. neil: have a good one. in the meantime, former governor christine todd whitman as she was then a small core stubborn group in the republican party. many who would be bad news. some come back into the polls including mitt romney in his state jury speech last night did much the same sentiment expressed by former president bush even though they didn't vote for anyone for president in texas which the new one while any phone calls sent their best wishes and prayers. governor whitman, where's the party right now? where are you right now.trump? >> i obviously wish him well. i hope that the rhetoric of he

gave last night of his speech is how we go forward. we need to bring the country together. this has been an extraordinarily divisive campaign but the harshest rhetoric we've ever heard. we've got to get over that. if donald trump is going to succeed at what he says he wants to do, he is going to need to reach out to the people. as you pointed out earlier, he's got a senate where a number of the republican senators ran away from that, did not campaign with her for him. he's going to need that many can't ignore what they are saying. even though it's a board he did an amazing job in this election. he wasn't the voice of people who felt disenfranchised and angry and frustrated at the lack of action from congress. they recognize what it means is not pity them. it doesn't mean get vengeance. it means get working. neil: a los angeles on that the results of the fact now he has to run at the table throughout this brought cast, governor with

control of the senate and the house. so he has a lot of room there to do a barack obama did the first two years with the house house and the senate in democratic hands as well. what would you tell them to do? >> i was saying is first and foremost job is to reach out and reach out to the democrats because you'll need them all and to put forward initially an agenda of things on which everyone can agree. one of the things he talked about that hillary clinton talked about was the need for infrastructure improvements. the americans want to see that. he needs to fight and strike a balance that ensures all he wants to grow our economy, we need to desperately. but after the baby baby out with the bathwater. we have protections in place to keep us healthy and readjust those come and make sure they're in the right place.

we need not to walk away entirely. that's a challenge throughout as finding ways people together. i believe there are a number of organizations that risk is citizens united is where people are trying to the labels is a place i would go. if i were donald trump i would donald trump are good in the labels because that's members of the republican party and democratic party. neil: a little bit of both anyway. real quick to give thoughts on governor crist christie is considered not only a key role in helping out the transition staff, but maybe a future chief of staff at a trump administration, maybe an attorney general. what do you think either or both want? >> i suspect it's more likely to be chief of staff. i don't know whether trump would go ahead given all the fuss and furor going on that he would risk being him up for senate confirmation. it just might be a battle he doesn't want to fight.

chris christie has been boiled to the president from the very beginning and the president-elect and the president-elect is loyal to him. neil: the chief of staff doesn't require senator putin. governor whitman, to do that very much. great to see you again. neil: in the meantime, speaking of what's going on, some breaking news, an early look at the trump cabinet, what it might look and whether chris christie would be a part of it. the three games are on. for whenever anything happens in the market. but thinkorswim already lets you create custom alerts for all the things that are important to you. i guess we don't need the kid anymore. custom alerts on thinkorswim. only at td ameritrade.

seconds can mean the difference between life and death. for partners in health, time is life. we have 18,000 people around the world. the microsoft cloud helps our entire staff stay connected and work together in real time to help those that need it. the ability to collaborate changes how we work. what we do together changes how we live.

neil: all right. if you're looking at an interesting read on the donald trump election, look what's going on at the bond market in general and the yields are backing up a little bit on the idea that maybe we could see they are turning in economic activity and improving stock market as well. the same late last night which is just a few hours ago, but i imagine that because it's kind of interesting and the side and stability are there looking forward with different stocks, for example, easy trump pics benefiting today and you see the dow running up today. the future data such as 900 points. charlie gasparino back with us.

looking into who would populate a trump cabinet. >> or should point out this is a moving target. back of the envelope shortlist. here's the names we are hearing from people inside the trump campaign. inside teen trump. kind of interesting. rudy giuliani will definitely play a role. a lot of people thought it was ag. he does not want ag. homeland security for secretary of state. those are the two names people think. already an interest in secretary of state. he gets a stake in a lot of people think the one secretary of state. less interesting, rudy giuliani possibly a secretary of state or homeland security. that would be huge. neil: that might be a tough sell in the senate. >> i don't know. people like rudy.

a story that we broke on your program a couple days ago, maybe last week, steve is the finance chair will be his treasury secretary. everyone agreed on that. here is an interesting one. i heard governor christie talk about the former governor whitman talked about christie being chief of staff. he's a former federal prosecutor. i still hear he's got a shot at ag. neil: even though he wasn't part of it. >> they think he's exonerated. and then ken feinberg, member of the wall street pays article. love the guy. 9/11 considered a bipartisan choice. he's a democrat but he gets along well with republicans and is very good friends with rudy giuliani. that could be a problem. this is reaching across the aisle. jeff sessions as secretary of

defense. he was an interesting, reince priebus is on the shortlist, at the top of the shortlist for cheap stuff. one of their name bouncing around. i hear that very shortly. one other name bouncing around. >> he put them together during this entire campaign. >> he was attacked routinely throughout the whole thing and he looks pretty good right now. chief of staff seems like something that would fit him perfectly. a huge benefactor, raised a lot of money for donald trump. but i'm hearing he could get an ambassador ship he wants. the food is great. one thing that didn't make the list is anthony skerritt meant

tremolo than have to get something better than president of the mailroom. there's barack obama and potus. neil: that is something that goes right to the potus saying. i ask you because twitter is up a lot and i'm wondering if there is a trump play right there. >> is a tweeted election. we will see the traffic it got. and now, someone's going to buy twitter at some point. it shows the value of that. it's got a lot of internal issues that we've been talking about including it's hard to monetize that thing, but clearly it's a technology that is front and center in just about any big news item. neil: everyone uses it. >> i think there's a team come into account. look at the time here. we've got a lot going on here.

chare gasparino, i wish i could've had you one more. >> if you want to call me and say come here. saddam was flat. neil: we will have more after this. you are watching the most business channel in the universe.

>> i am liz claman from the floor of the new york stock exchange with your fox business brief after an overnight freak out look at the markets now. we are seeing gains across the board. dow, nasdaq, s&p with the dow jones industrial jumping 183 points. we at 18,516. the dallas crowd scene more than 17 times still seeing gains. which sectors are on the run post election day? donald trump has said he would spend a lot of money on military spending. names like northrop grumman, lockheed martin moving higher. that is it for now. i am liz claman. we will see you later. more trans than -- "cavuto: coast-to-coast."

neil: we haven't had -- been an anomaly since the popular vote. as close as it was in the popular vote. tim kaine didn't waste any time reminding people about that today. residential historian is not getting nearly the press and

attention it is 16 years ago because at that time and for the better part of a month. what do you think of that anomaly now? >> it is not big news not because it's happened again so frequently. the shock of donald trump's victory, the pollsters got it wrong. polling organizations are so and they exchange their personnel at will. there used to be diversity. used to go into nordstrom and there's 50 different kinds of her fans but there'll manufactured the same place in switzerland. people can flip through the channels but they are all owned by six companies. there used to be diversity in polling. it was very secretive. each network had their own pollsters and they even have their own programmers who would program the polls. neil: there were some standouts.

they did have donald trump ahead after the irony being of course he was ahead in the national popular vote. in the state breakdown they were all very similar. what do they have to do to undo what they got wrong? >> diversify. there needs to be some freelancers are still do it. they missed the ground game, which was very fundamental. great america pac with ed rollins and jesse benton. dated groundwork here they took money into groundwork that everybody makes them because you make your money when you buy tv ads. dated the hard work of building a ground game. neil: what about the people who are overlooked, landmines versus cell phone. do we just have to get this up to speed? >> yeah, there was a lot of that. i've got to say lou dobbs was

right. i hear people on tv saying all dependents missed it. he was )-right-paren the beginning and so is ben carson, so is chris christie. so was mike huckabee. a year and a half ago on your show i talked about andrew jackson. you can imagine the grief on some of your shows for donald trump would win on the first ballot. they said it's going to be a contested. i'm very humble about history. i never say i'm an expert on history. i'm a student of history. always something new. john kennedy has his favorite prayer about the sailor who said your cso bake at my boat is so small. that's the way i feel about history. a lot of people got it wrong, but there is no shame in not. neil: no, there isn't. i was a tough thing to find today. people admitted they got it wrong. thank you very much.

what happened last night? we think we know. in fact, this was right in fbn's wagon. right after this.
