you will, okay? and i don't care, whites, blacks, latins, okay, hispanics, asians including women, including young people, this is what mr. trump was cultivating. all these four years, okay? and people gave up on him, but he never gave up. he kept on fighting. they threw everything at him including bullets and assassination attempts. this was the coalition. he wasn't just talking the to the base, he was expanding the base with. almost like the democrats didn't see it, the media didn't see it, most of the pollsters didn't see it. the fact is everybody talks about the registration the advantages, people didn't see that too. this was trump's greatness, and he will govern with this greatness at his back and his coalition, and i'm finished. and now my dear friend liz macdonald is coming up to continue this whole discussion. i think -- i'm a little tired,

liz, but i'm having a good day, you know what i mean? i'm in a good space today. [laughter] elizabeth: what a time to be alive, larry are. we are living in history. good to see you, my friend. larry: thanks, take care. elizabeth: welcome to "the evening edit," i'm elizabeth macdonald. >> this was, i believe, the greatest political movement of all time. there's never been anything like this in this country. [cheers and applause] we're going to help our country heal. this will truly be the golden age. america has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. this will forever be remembered as the day the american people regained control of their country. [cheers and applause] elizabeth: the greatest comeback in american history, president-elect trump's historic victory, the biggest since reagan in 1984. kamala harris has potentially conceded. a massive red wave.

trump is poised to win all seven battlegrounds, smashing through the democrat blue walsh trump's sweep -- wall. trump's sweeping new tent, multicultural trump revolution, all races, all income classes and generations replacing the one from obama and biden, their far-left group. stocks soaringed today to, the dow up 15000 points. common sense -- 1500 points. tonight, former governor mike huckabee here to react to this historic victory for president-elect trump. and also tonight, autoworkers' for trump, they are smiling and happy today to. we're going to talk to them. and we've got this story -- >> this'll be the second opportunity that white women in this country to change the way that they interact with the patriarchy. >> wills there racial bias in this country and sexism in this country. >> it's not the elite that's gown to the pay price, it's people who woke up this morning with a dream. >> for so many of you watching

right now, that news is, to say the least, a lot to digest. elizabeth: okay. the media a reaction to the today. voters now in a stunning turn-around saying the media is out of touch with america, the media has been in a bubble, in the minority, the media's now in the minority because they've been misleading americans for years. we're going to talk to radio host jason rantz. he's going to react to that. plus this story -- >> we did not expect this result, but we are prepared to respond to this result. we face this challenge -- faced this challenge before, and we used the rule of law to fight back. and we are prepared to fight back once again. elizabeth: okay. nobody in new york is sure what she's talking about. nobody in new york is asking for this. that's attorney general letitia james, doubling down on going after trump after she tried to

bankrupt trump right as jack smith is about to be let go from the justice department. the update on all of that is and the lawfare attacks. fox news' legal analyst and author gregg jarrett is here to take it on. voters across the nation said, enough, stop the lawfare. but first, this: this was, trump is saying, the greatest political movement of all time, nothing ever seen in this country. you're seeing a live shot just before kamala harris conceding and saying, yes, i will peacefully transfer power over to trump. vice president harris chose not to talk to her supporters last night. she instead delivered her concession speech earlier this afternoon, just moments ago, after trump's stunning victory. fox news eye jacqui heinrich joins us live in washington. we give a warm welcome to her, she's a terrific journalist and reporter bringing you the headlines you need to know. it's nice to see you again. >> reporter: nice to see you too, liz. you know, these results really were known by top officials inside the campaign last night.

as early as around 11:00. but the vice president waited most of a full day to come out and concede. she did thank president biden, she did thank tim walz, she did talk about her phone conversation with president-elect trump s and she also did choke up a little bit. listen. >> the outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what we voted for, but hear me when i say, hear me when i say the light are of america's promise will always burn bright. >> reporter: a couple of times she choked up a little bit. but, by and large, it was a strong concession speech. she struck positive tones and said they'll continue to fight this at the ballot box in future elections. but while she was choking up, some democrats have been owning

up to this outcome. congressman richie torres posted: donald trump has no greater friend than the far left which has managed to alienate historic numbers from the democratic party with absurdities like defund the police or from the river to the sea or latinx. others, though, are not looking in the mirror. obama's former campaign manager who joined harris' team after biden dropped out blaming biden for if digging harris so keep of hole that she couldn't dig out of it. and also ro khanna said that incumbents all around the world have been losing because of structural issues like the economy and inflation, really not looking at the democratic party being out of step with focus. but jen o'malley dillon said in a a letter to staff, they blamed the loss on headwinds and obstacles largely out of our control. we knew this would be a margin of other record race, and it was. democratic sources really take issue with that. they say this was not a margin

of error race. trump actually ended up doing a sweep here, and so they've got some conversation among high ranking officials about whether or not the campaign was being honest about its prospects. but harris closed with this message of hope. take a listen. >> on the campaign i would often say when we fight, we win. but here's the thing, here's the thing, sometimes the fight takes a while. that doesn't mean we won't win. [cheers and applause] that doesn't mean we won't win. >> reporter: trying to seasoned people home although disappointed -- send people home with some homework after many in the campaign are saying this was an unfathomable loss, liz. elizabeth: thank you, jacqui heinrich, for your hard work there. appreciate you. >> it was a historic realignment uniting citizens of all backgrounds around a common core of common sense. you know, we're the party of common sense.

together, we're going to the unlock america's glorious destiny. this will forever be remembered as the day the american people regained control of their country. [applause] but it's a political victory that our country has never seen before, nothing like this. [cheers and applause] and every citizen, i will fight for you, for your family and your future. every single day, i will be fighting for you and with every breath in my body -- [cheers and applause] i will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe of and prosperous america that our children deserve and that you deserve. this will truly be the the golden age of america. elizabeth: it is the biggest comeback in u.s. history, the biggest red wave since reagan in 1984. republicans swept the senate too. trump the picks up on reagan's morning in america, promises a new golden age. look who's here, former presidential candidate, former arkansas governor, governor mike

huckabee. t it's great to see you. of so what do you make of this? he wins -- did you expect in this? he wins the electoral college, the popular vote, 95% of all counties in pennsylvania? he's only the second president since grover cleveland to win nonconsecutive terms. we haven't seen that since 1892. >> yeah, this wasn't a comeback, it was a resurrection are. and it was a powerful one. he might be called president lazarus after this. but i'll tell you what he said last night that was so very important for people to take in. this was not just an election about donald trump, this is a real movement, a genuine movement and a complete realignment of the political class. it was a pushback to the uniparty, deep sate the elitists that have -- state elitists that have pushed themselves over most of america for so long. and people were just fed up with it. and they're tired of democrats and some of these republicans who only care about their own globalist interests, and they care about their making money, and they didn't care that what

he were doing and their policies were destroying jobs in this country which means they were destroying families and households and small communities and farms. and finally are, people had enough. and donald trump was willing to carry the banner. he's done it brilliantly. he put together a coalition of people that most naught could never if happen -- most thought could never happen. it's an overwhelming vote of support for a different kind of political future, and i, for one, or or couldn't be happier about it. elizabeth: let's show the facts we found a his victory. show the world leaders congratulating trump. he's poised to win all seven battlegrounds can, he won over suburban bombs, a greater share of the under-30 vote than any gogop candidate since 2008. harris underperformed with suburban women, moderate voters, even 18 to 19-year-olds. she's on the track for the worst performance in new york city since 19832. here's the thing, obama swept

into office with this kind of a coalition saying come join us, come with the cool crowd, jump up on the obama train. people -- trump is basically saying you are us. you are part of us. we have a big tent. who would have ever thought that big tent would be flipped away from the democrats toward republicans? >> it's been a brilliant with campaign by the president, and i think what people need to remember is that this is authentic on his part. this is a guy that that didn't have to run to validate his own rife. -- life. he didn't even take a pay he can when he was president, four years in. but we have a different kind of future in this country because of donald trump, and i think it bodes well for america and for jobs and fors prosperity for people not just at the op to, but at the bottom as well. elizabeth: governor huckabee, great to have you on again. good to see you. >> thanks. ♪

>> it seems every republican across the unimproved -- the country improved. the scope and scale of this victory is sweeping. this is a democratic party that has been just wiped out this morning. elizabeth: that's joe scarborough conceding trump's stunning victory wiping out the democrats across the nation. they've gone full lot to throttle -- they'd gone full throttle saying trump's going to win. let's bring in auto worker. pray, your reaction to hearing trump won. >> we knew that trump was going to win. wert in the moment where we're -- we are in the moment where we're standing together as americans, one nation, under god, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. it doesn't matter if you're black, white, asian, hispanic. at the end of the day, we're in the middle of an invasion, and we're ready to save ourselves, and donald trump is the man that's going to get us through the difficult times and keep

america great. elizabeth: brian, it's like minorities, millennial, even suburban women voters, they are rebuking obama and biden, they're rebuking kamala harris, they're rebuking the media. trump has a big tent coalition. we're talking the, brian, college students, union workers, nurses, janitors, firemen, cops, doctors, lawyers, women, what do you make of media and the far left accused of being so out of touch with what's going on in america? >> liz, they are out of touch to. since 1980 there's been a process going on up here in detroit, the uaw members have been grewing more and more republican -- growing more and more republican since reagan ran in 1980. about 65-70% of the uaw represented autoworkers voted for trump on tuesday. has been a going on for a while, and i think it may have kind of peaked now because there's certain people in the uaw who will probably never if vote for a republican, but we've got a

solid majority in there now, and last week president trump flew into detroit, and i had the privilege of riding in his motorcade with them. and we went to a largely muslim community, and he got endorsed by the mayor of the town, and he gave a beautiful endorsement. and since then the mayor of dearborn has also endorsed donald trump: and there's really a coalition coming together here backing president trump -- elizabeth: interesting. >> i think it's only going to grow over the next four years. elizabeth: to, p-rae, given this new big tent coalition, it's a rebuke against obama, biden, against kamala harris and elitism, that they've been out of touch with their elitist behaviors and thinking that celebrities were going to pull in voters. p-rae, if you were to sit across from the three of them tonight, the what would you want to say

to them and the media too? >> i would tell the media that we are intelligent people, and this is what happens when but you don't respect the people. this is actually, as james brown said, the big payback. this is the big payback for them raising our taxes to pay for illegals and raising the prices of our groceries, raising fuel prices, raising housing prices and telling us that everything is going well. this is the fable of the emperor does not have on any clothes. everybody recognizes that the democratic party is standing before us faked with no policies, and it's -- naked, and it's time to move on. we're going to save this country and keep it great for ourselves and our country, because this is the country that's -- and our children. this is the country that's our birthright. elizabeth: thank you both for being with us, it's great to see you again. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> it's people who woke up this morning with a dream and are going to bed with a nightmare.

>> this really was an historic toic, flawlessly-run campaign. she had -- queen latifa never endorses anyone. >> if she were a 6-4 white man from arkansas who could, like, chew tobacco and carry a shotgun and talk about the football -- elizabeth: the media's so out of touch, right? they're in meltdown over trump's stunning comeback victory. we're going to play you even more sound, it isn't fit in one segment. radio host jason rantz is here to react to the unhinged moments we found. also tonight, i guess forget the will of the people. new york state attorney general letitia james says she's going to fight trump even after she try thed to bankrupt him. fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett is going the take that on and on jack smith reportededly about to be let go from the justice department. are the trump lawfare attacks finally over for good? and also this, voters waking up to democratic abuses of power. this is a big one.

correspondent chad pergram joins us live on capitol hill with the latest. chad, it's wonderful to see you again. thanks for joining us. >> reporter: liz, good afternoon. after 24 hour9 of bad news, some good news for democrats. fox projectses that democratic michigan representative elissa slotkin will defeat republican mike rogers in the michigan senate race. that's a hold as democrats keep the seat of retiring senator debbie stabenow. democrats also hold the seat of tammy baldwin in wisconsin, right now republicans could have as a few as a 522 seats or as a many as 55. the 3 outstanding senate races right now, nevada, pennsylvania and arizona. senate minority leader mitch mcconnell is pleased. >> yes. think it was a referendum on the current administration. in part. people were just not happy with this administration, and the democratic nominee, obviously, was a part of it. >> reporter: in the house there

are about 50 uncalled races. it may take days to decide the house. the the majority sits on a razor's edge. >> there is no modern day candidate of either party who turns out voters more effectively than president trump. so we feel very optimistic that we're going to pick up seats. obviously, we're looking at some of these california seats where president trump is one -- running 10-15 points ahead of where he kid in 2020. >> reporter: house minority leader hakeem jeffries says the house is, quote, very much in play. he touts democratic wins in new york and says democrats can still pick up seats in arizona, oregon and california. liz? elizabeth: interesting reporting. thank you, chad pilgrim. >> reporter: thank you. chad pergram. >> i feel like the media is more of a threat to democracy than donald trump. i think that they sway information in such a way that it's insulting to voters, and they really try to drive a narrative. and i feel like that is more of

a threat. and i think it's insulting the people -- to people who want information and can make their own decisions. elizabeth: okay. that was an undecided pennsylvania voter in the keystone state really letting the media have it. she voted for trump because she said the media is a threat to democracy, twisting and distort thing the truth and information. joining us now, seattle talk radio host and host of the jason rantz show, jason rantz comes to us again. when you heard that, jason, when you saw that sound and heard it and you saw trump's victory, is this a wake-up call for the media? because there's been a relentless stream of hysteria, panic and identity politics, anr eight years from the media. >> whether it is or should be is the question, right? because i think it should, obviously, be a wake-up call for these left-wing media outlets. they very clearly are out of touch with the average american. they hang out with each other,

they all think they're heroes. they talk about how much smarter they are than everybody else. and so they can never quite understand why someone might not immediately listen to everything that heir telling us and lecturing us about -- they're telling us. but i don't think they're going to learn a lesson, and that's the problem, right? even today concern not just last night, but today, some of the rhetoric has been so, so over the line. and while i would hope that they would start to moderate some of the rhetoric just a little bit and maybe catch the lessons here, i just don't get the sense that they're going to do it. and so, truly, it's going to be up to consumers like that woman you just played to just stop tuning in, stop reading all of the stuff coming from the radical left. and that's the only way you're going to truly be able to send a message that they need to figure this out. elizabeth: you know, your point's well taken. now the media's starting the blame game, joining in on why trump won. they're blaming pelosi and biden

and not kamala harris' bad policies, not biden's bad policies or their flip-flops. watch the media here. >> i think we have thing acknowledge the that donald trump knows our country better than we do. >> jen, has the conversation begun yet about joe biden and about the decision the ask him to step aside? >> it will begin -- >> if that ends up being, being the case, then i can't help but wonder if the american people have given up on democracy. >> we've never had a woman president. there's sexism in this country -- >> i'll just say really quickly too, democrats need to be a mature, and they need to be honest. and they need to say, yes, there is, there's misogyny, but it's not just misogyny from white men. it's misogyny from hispanic men -- >> right. >> the it's misogyny from black men. elizabeth: okay. so democrats have to be honest and claim that black and

hispanic voters are racist and sexist? so the media's not saying, hey, am i out of touch because of biden and harris' bad policies opening the border, record overspending that the chicago and san francisco fed, you said, fueled record inflation and double-digit grocery prices? but it's la' knows and black voters who are to blamesome if. >> i love -- blame? >> i love the strategy. after seeing the exit polls showing that democrats are pushing away black and latino voters, and their response so to then double down and call them sexiest. in system cases, racist. [laughter] i mean, are we really doing this? when a republican candidate who happens to be black or female loses, you never hear any of that kind of claim. it's only whenst it's a democrat who falls into those categories, do they make these claims. it's lazy. it's obviously not true. elizabeth: jason rantz, so glad you join joined us tonight. great to see you again. >> thank you so much. >> are there any places that the

and we use the recall of law to fight back. and we are prepared to fight back once again. elizabeth: okay, that's new york state attorney general letitia james doubling down, going after trump, trying to destroy his business. joining us now, fox news legal analyst and author of the best selling book, "the trial of the century and the constitution of the united states and other patriotic documents," gregg jarrett. gregg, what to can you make of letitia james here? what about the will of the voter? didn't voters nationwide say, enough, stop the lawfare attacks? >> yeah, absolutely. but she's tone deaf. you know, letitia james, in truth, is now afraid that donald trump will do to her and others what they did to him, weaponizing the law for political reasons and retribution. but i'll remind viewers what he said on fox news, that this kind of lawfare that was used against him is wrong, it sets a terrible

press dent for our country, and it's got to stop. and i think he'll stop it. and while he might be justified or even tempted, he has repeatedly reiterated that his focus is going to be fixing what joe biden and kamala harris broke, improving people's lives economically, ending the cycle of crime and violence and illegal immigration, stopping the fentanyl and, you know, the terrorist gangs. i don't think he's going to be dwelling on punishing his enemies -- [laughter] though i would certainly be tempted in doing that. but two wrongs don't make a right. just because they did it doesn't mean that he should do it. elizabeth: you know, so the justice department is reportedly about to let go jack smith, winding down smith's cases against trump. that's pretty much pro forma when a president wins, you know? this is -- jack smith for more than a year tried to the jail trump before the election. politico reported biden complained a.g. garland was not

moving fast enough. do you think judge chutkan lets this go? >> well, i don't think she's going to have any choice. with trump's election victory, the two federal cases against him are over. the classified documents case in florida already dismissed by the judge there, and the one in washington with judge chutkan, that's already stalled because of the supreme court immunity ruling. but now it will be dismissed because it's longstanding doj policy dating back to 1973 not to indict or actively prosecute a sitting president. and jack smith, special counsel, he's not going to stick around anyway. he'll resign before he's fired by trump or the new attorney general. his staff will be out the door. so the lawfare game, liz, is over. it backfired spectacularly on democrats. they thought they could weaponize the law, knock out biden's opponent.

voters saw it for what it was it was, a corrupt scheme to influence the election. elizabeth: so what about manhattan d.a. bragg's case existence trump? >> well, that case -- against trump? well, that case is probably the most unsound, legally weak case i have ever seen in my 40-plus years as a lawyer. it will not withstand judicial scrutiny on appeal. and neither will letitia james' civil case and the huge judgment against him. we already heard a from the appellate judges, they weren't just skeptical, they seemed miffed that she had abused the law for political reasons. so both those new york cases, gone. elizabeth: gregg jarrett, always wonderful to see you. you're terrific. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> has the conversation begun yet about joe biden and about the decision to ask him to step aside? if. >> it will begin. that will certainly be part of the discussion. >> democrats orchestrated a very public fab fest, a proverbial

stabbing in front of the sitting president of the united states of america and they didn't use him in his hometown of januaryon, pennsylvania. >> biden should have dropped out two years ago. >> the timing, i think, of president biden's decision to step down after the debate, something that if she does, in fact, lose will be under a microscope. elizabeth: the media's' really going full tilt today, mad that trump won, they're now trying the blame biden, also pelosi. plus rachel maddow again talks russia, now talks getting the government to stop contracts for elon musk's companies. talking abuse of power here. jen psaki talking up social media censorship ooh to. we're going to talk to byron york, ford to o'connell. they're going to take it on. also this tonight -- >> i think we should eliminate the filibuster for roe, and we need -- and get us to to the point where 51 votes would be what we need to actually put back in law the protections for reproductive freedom.

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. >> you've got ongoing secret communications even out of government between the republican nominee and the person who funded his campaign and led his ground game, or right? both of whom are communicating with the russian government of without reporting that information to the u.s. government. and on top of that, you've got

reporting from "the new york times" that they're considering, once there is a second trump administration if it happens, to stop performing background checks before giving people security clearance. elizabeth: okay, i'm not sure what all that was about. i tried to dig into it and figure out. i understand what she thinks she's saying, but this is like trying to follow a gnat in a hurricane. rachel maddow again talking about russia. trump just delivered a stunning rebuke with the red tsunami to democrats and their media a allies and then this stuff going on. let's welcome to the show gop strategist ford do to o'connell, washington examiner correspondent byron york. we should point out that comcast, the parent of msnbc, is reportedly seriously talking about spinning off and possibly selling its cable channels including america snbc. so we're talking russia again? >> i was not at all surprised. as a matter of fact, the only thing i found a little surprising is that democrats

didn't go to the putin well that much in the last few day days of the campaign. so rachel maddow bringing up russia again, i think, is like the sunrising in the east. sun rising in the east. the problem here, and you played a couple of these things before the break, the problem is, is that there's a situation here where democrats kicked out joe biden, anointed kamala harris, and then she lost. they simply cannot reconcile. they can't sugar coat it, they can't reconcile it. so what i think you seeing right now is kind of spasms of anger as they try to, you know, digest what just happened to them. elizabeth: well, what byron just said. the democrat primary voter did not pick kamala harris. the elites in the party kid, ford. the -- did, ford. the democratic party didn't pick kamala harris in 2020, so hay can't handle being wrong. watch rachel maddow saying there should be retaliation against elon musk because trump won and

if also listen to jen psaki talking social media censorship. >> even if trump doesn't win, the defense department and nasa are going to the need a new arrangement for all their rockets and for all the multibillion dollar contracts elon musk's companies have with the u.s. government. the government is going to have to either, i mean, unwind from all of those contracts, or e op loan musk's companies are -- elon musk's companies are going to have to unwind from him. this is an untenable reality. >> it may be time to ask ourselves things like whether social media platforms should have the freedom to operate at a lower level of accountability than local television the networks in terms of the lies they can spread or whether the electoral college alone is the right way to determine who should, lead this country. elizabeth: obnoxious bullying, ford. really? >> talk about finish. elizabeth: go ahead, ford. take it on. >> talk about projection and pushing misinformation,

disinformation. remember, democrats can lie all a day long when it benefits them. and this is why the news media has the lowest trust of any american civic or political institution. they've cried wolf so many times about donald trump, and now nobody actually believes them. and the oh problem is if you don't think like ms finishes bc does, you're a conspiracy theorists, sexist or racist. elizabeth: yeah, it's pretty pathetic, the analysis. how about the facts on the ground and what americans are dealing with, with the border collapse, crime, record inflation, double-digit spikes higher in groceries. listen to "the view" here. >> i'm worried about mass deportation and internment camps. i think that it had nothing to do with policy. i think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country. >> i vehemently disagree with the decision that americans made. but i feel verying very hopeful that we have -- very, very hopeful that we have a democratic -- >> he's now the prime minister i'm still not going to say his name. >> she decided to run a campaign

of optimism and joy. the country decided to go in a different direction. that's on us, not on her. elizabeth: byron, what what do you say? [laughter] >> well, you know, the part about mass deportations, you can argue about how much that's actually going to happen, whether it's going to happen at all. but certainly, the the fact is a lot of polls show that americans broadly supported a large number of depor asians of people who had crossed illegally recently into the united states. so they're actually having to try to reconcile themselves with what the public actually believes. elizabeth: yeah. it's about a deporting criminal illegal aliens. final word, ford. trump did not do any fascist moves when he was in the white house the first time. >> well, that's exactly right. he has a record of doing -- americans want security. they want a secure border, they want safety, and the elites in new york city and the media a immediate to the understand that the middle class and american mainstream spoke, and that's why

donald trump won in a landslide. elizabeth: now they're in the minority. they're not being listened to anymore. ford o'connell, byron york, thank you so much. democrats now sounding like they do want to keep the senate fillly buster to block trump, but this is after kamala harris and democrats demanded they get rid of the filibuster to ram through their a far-left agenda including big spending. republican senator ron johnson is going the take on this hypocrisy and abuse of power next. >> a historic shift with black voters, hispanic voters, asian-american voters. you know, that that's because of two things. one, we see that those communities are affected by gasoline prices, grocery prices and housing prices that go through the roof when kamala harris cast the today-breaking vote on inflation if -- tie-breaking vote on inflationary spending. where ya headed? susan: where am i headed?

am i just gonna take what the markets gives me? no. i can do some research. ya know, that's backed by j.p. morgan's leading strategists like us. when you want to invest with more confidence... the answer is j.p. morgan wealth management an alternative to pills, voltaren is a clinically proven arthritis pain relief gel, which penetrates deep to target the source of pain with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine directly at the source. voltaren, the joy of movement.

(♪) (high five) >> apology to those states we have not mentioned. it not our fault, the founding father's they slided on electoral college, no other country in the world decided to copy, if you are in california or new york, when you think about how enormous a force that can be. in voter suppression there may be nothing quite like

it. elizabeth: incompetent analysis from msnbc o'donnell attacking our u.s. founding fathers. joining us now, from senator ron johnson. what did you think of odonald, is it about protecting minority smaller states so we're not overrun by bigger more populated states like new york and california. >> last time i looked, the vision of our founding fathers worked out well, isn't america the most successful nation in history of human kind, that is a component. part of a jeanous -- jeagenius of our founding fathers, he is off base. elizabeth: we hear they want to get rid of senate filibuster again, so they can block president trump. kamala harris was for

filibuster in 2017, signing a letter to get the democrat agenda through. go ahead -- >> all current u.s. democrat senators, they want to get rid of the filibuster, what i think we should do as republicans majority, we'll put a test vote to it, see if they want to get rid of it now that republicans control the house, senate and white house, that would be a very interesting vote, i recommend to my colleagues be that first vote w we take. elizabeth: they want to keep it now -- >> we need to prove to them, american public what hypocrites the democrats are. elizabeth: what do you make of former president trump victory? senator? what did the make of trump win last night? >> it was historic. true reputing a of democrat policies, they put this

country on the road to destruction, could not be happier about it, looking forward to being in majority, exposing truth and working with bobby kennedy to work on the illness. it is not one and didn't tell make many years to deal with the open border policy. elizabeth: are you hearing from democrats they went the wrong way. >> of course not, no, i doubt we'll hear it in session next week. just listen to they are in denial, they are tone deaf, they don't realize, but bernie sanders, said when you abandon the working class, you should not be surprised. elizabeth: senator ron johnson thank you, to dagen and sean "the bottom line" dvrs. dagen: thanks emac. elizabeth:
