flipping else? i think an awful lot about blowing out -- up the white house, madonna and all of that. >> the women's march the day afterwards some of us had to be in the streets for that. >> i saw that protest they just had it was the saddest protest may be of all protest time. it was awful. truly awful and embarrassing. >> sean: you have been on this show all year fighting for this, hoping for this here we are. >> congratulations to you you made it happen as well. >> sean: donald trump put it on the line. we appreciate all three of you. we have a lot more to get to expect on the trump, first lady melania trump coming up next. i do have some good news we have a second hour that is about to start right here right now. and we started with the

fox news alert we are continuing live coverage from commander-in-chief all right here in our nation's capital. we are expecting donald trump the president of the united states first lady melania trump any moment. joining us now with more on all of today's breaking news our very own kevin corke is standing by. i can actually see him where i am from. he has a much better view than i do. kevin? >> i am lucky, shawn, i have a great view because i am a little bit elevated above your position but i can tell you you have had some great guest tonight throughout the evening a wonderful opportunity for all of us to celebrate what is clearly a momentous evening here and in the nation's capital. you know i have been to a great number of inaugural balls in my career but i can tell you going all the way back to the george w. bush era they are all unique. as you well know. but tonight i have seen more emotion and this building in this crowd than i have ever seen

in the inaugural ball. i think there is a good reason for that. usually, sean, balls like this reflect the mood of the nation. in many ways you were coming out of the military event or if you have a malaise in your economy it can really impact the way people see the night. today are so repeatedly and in this room a great deal of optimism. a number of people really truly feeling like the best is yet to come. tonight whether you are a black officer, and admiral, a general rule, the pfc in back, you are here tonight all for this shining moment to celebrate the commander-in-chief. >> sean: kevin corke joining us. hang on i am looking i just got an update and apparently donald trump is he is 8 minutes coming? on top?

okay, i did not know the helicopter. by the way we are live on the air, ladies. >> we are? >> sean: yes, we are, hello. don't worry you have to pick up your microphone. i got word kevin corke, think it is always. we are rejoined by the cohost of the number 1 hit show "the five" jeanine pirro, "fox & friends" cohost the top-rated morning show host in america cable news show, ainsley earhardt, the host of the faulkner focus our friend harris faulkner of course a big part of outnumbered that we listen every day. it is great to see you well. donald trump will be here in about 7 minutes and there probably will be what what what we expect? they will dance. here is my question is it going to be this dance? >> i think you will dance with melania. he has to do the couple's dance i can't wait to see what she is

wearing. they have to be exhausted. >> sean: by the way there is no got at home saying i wonder what donald trump is going to be wearing. >> no. okay. so talk about the fashion. we want to talk about fashion. we watched the second speech when he finished and we went to the ceremony he went to another crowd was that inside the white house. so he goes and he speaks to this group he says he all of my big supporters. y'all are real maga. so he says because y'all are my good friends and y'all supported me i should not say this. so of course they are like what? high should not say this but melania's feet are killing her but she heard that we are going to be here and she said okay let's go. when she walked out she was wearing i think they were 5 inches. >> yes. >> 5 inches. i can do for inches.

i have one pair a five. >> six? >> i wear my sketchers to set. >> so do i. >> i walked a mile and a half last night and 5-inch heels. >> sean: i just want to tell the audience at home that president trump is apparently we are told 5 minutes out. i am not a part of this conversation. >> sean, sean, let me finish. the last thing i want to say i loved it because she looked at him like i'm going to kill you when we get home. but you kind of smirked at him and went like this. but i thought she is really. she is so gorgeous. >> i can't stop looking at her. >> you can't. >> sean: you spent a lot of time with her lately. >> you have. >> i love her. >> sean: she says she is going to be at the white house. >> she is outfitting the white house she is a beautiful decorator. she decorated all of the rooms pictured in her book. >> you know if she were trying to tell us where he was he has been so many places you can keep up with him. i remember covering these events

over the years. not every commander-in-chief signs executive actions at the ceremony while he is being after he is sworn in. >> and then the arena. i know some of them. wait a minute wait a minute. this is realtime. yes. here we go. i love those dress blues. >> sean: say it again. >> what are you hearing? >> 3 minutes. >> you want to talk about style? look at these guys and their military uniform they are gorgeous. hey,, guys. god bless. every day.

>> first responders, law enforcement, fire professionals, and especially our gold star families. >> sean: very hard because things got very loud in here very quickly. we now know that donald trump is about two and a half minutes, 3 minutes else. but i will let you go back to the fashion discussion. >> oh, my goodness can i say one thing. >> sean: go ahead. >> when marine one was about this building, our hearts fluttered because it sounds like something's planting. and this building is huge. we knew immediately where he was. that was a countdown of about 1. has i have said before he is making every single stop. behind off the top of today when we get our special edition of faulkner focus he was catching up. by the time it was time for the swearing-in they were back on schedule that is impressive. >> he has more energy than anybody has age. not only that but the whole

family has been going since what? 6:00 this morning? >> 100%. >> sean: think of all they have been through. there has not been a family that has been persecuted or attacked or vilified or demonized. >> look what god said he answered our prayers. >> they don't look happy. >> sean: by the way i looked over at the monitor it is funny. they have jamie raskin. >> he should be hiding under rock. >> you have spent some time with melania i think in her first interview a few weeks ago he would ask her about the assassination attempt on his life. and i was noticing today that he wants to rename go from mount denali and alaska to mount mckinley. mckinley was assassinated in the early 1900s. you have somebody qsi to attempt

on his life and i think that is huge. i think that won't be a big argument over whether or not they switch that back. but you know that she has talked about that issue. >> that is something that they talk about they tried to focus on it. but he said apple that ripped through my ear and then trump said he was saved by god to make america great again. so i want everybody at home to continue to prey for his safety because our prayers can prevent this. god will answer our prayers. >> sean: an important point. we forget this there was not one assassin there were two. one guy got within 300 yards. here is the other part. there are a rainy and assassination squads in our country right now but we do not know where they are. >> and when you look at the two assassination attempts they could have been amateur whether they were worn out we do not know. but he was so vulnerable in both

situations it is stunning. that the secret service did not happen better protected in both situations. >> sean: to fusible. >> it is frightening because the consequence where you go. they have not heard those unencrypted messages. >> sean: the communist chinese were able to hack into everybody. >> i didn't mean to cut you guys off but in action here they just came around. every camera in here outside of the ones on the dais of peer just pulled around to the front of the stage. the commander-in-chief commander in chief is perched someplace. sorry. >> sean: as you were. >> but the truth is that we are now going to find out about that assassination attempt. both of them. why was the body of crooks cremated? what was the point of all of

that? >> sean: how is it the communist chinese and the iranians can hack into the trump emails and the would-be assassin i know a lot of people whose phones they have talked to him as well. here is the thing. there were six separate times, six separate phones that one assassin had. >> what does that tell you? that does he possibly they either don't want to. >> sean: that will change. he would do a good job. >> he was very tall and you know he is with them all the time. at the town hall he was right there he is always there. >> eva lys. >> who held him up? >> eva lys you see him all the time. >> i love listening to his speech talking about everything that he is going to reverse. watching joe biden and kamala harris.

>> i know you do not want to spend a lot of time on biden but his absenteeism and his bitterness were on full display today. >> we have not talked about carrie underwood. god bless her. >> absolutely. >> she handle that with grace. >> what is going on? >> sean: she went full and active hello that was really amazing. >> she did not look upset, she did not look angry, she was like no music. okay. >> i love the military element. >> here we go. >> sean: there we go. >> he's coming. >> sean, look at all of the phones. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

>> come on. >> sean: i never thought i would be ryan seacrest on the red carpet that is what i feel like tonight. >> she is an icon and it is about time that america the magazines, the designers, recognized she is one of the most magnificent first ladies. >> sean: here we go. >> should we stand to? everybody else is standing. >> sean: you can stand you can do whatever you want. >> oh, good. >> this is fine. >> don't fall off. >> sean: if you look you can see the camera i don't know if they can pan down a little bit but everybody has their phone out. everybody is recording this. it is really an amazing experience. so you spent a lot of time talking about fashion. >> i think secretly you love it. >> sean: no i know nothing about fashion. >> we talked about it at the last hour but if people are just joining us all three of the ladies next to you, sean, we

agree melania look spectacular. so sophisticated. she looks like audrey hepburn. >> sean: you go back to 2017 and she had on that blue powder. >> yes the ralph lauren. >> sean: how many people made the comparison to jackie o back in the day? >> she is so our past jackie o at this point i mean we have four years have spectacular elegance, classic,, and a real love for fashion. >> sean: you know what is amazing? when you meet to melania and you talked to her we have all had a chance to be with her, she is so smart, english is her six language. >> and their child is so smart as well. between having the father who was a mogul in business but also a president 45 and now 47. and you talked about her wanting to spend maybe a little bit more time in the white house. while he is in college he is an nyu. i can't go on without mentioning the men and the women in our military who are in this room

right now. i mean it is humbling to see their level of service. all night long ainsley, janine, all of us, we have been talking with these lawyers. they love our country. i think this commander in chief is good for recruitment. we are going to needed. >> sean: i agree with you on all of that. this room literally preserves the freedom. >> amen. >> yes. >> sean: i have had so many conversations with steve and other people in the military i even had an opportunity to get free thoughts from elon musk about the next generation. what ai will contribute to building out that new technology. it is going to be amazing. but these are there were years that protect us. not only what we built up the military, we will eliminate to woke up, and i think pete hegseth is going to be the greatest recruitment tool

because his passion is infectious. >> i talked to my dad earlier tonight and he was texting me during the speech and you said so many of his friends are in the military periods father was on the navy in world war ii my other grandfather once as well and he said he is receiving so many text messages from his friends who said they were in tears. they love the military presence. so many of our dads either gave up the best years of their lives in their late teens or early 20s, to go and fight for our country. what they saw is indescribable and he said some of them did not come home. >> sean: yes. >> so to hear donald trump say we will put america first again brought them all to tears. now we are at the military ball. >> sean: i asked steve who runs a cerberus he is a multibillionaire. steve, why would you leave this company? a multibillion dollar company? he said sean, my father slammed to the beaches of normandy it is

the least i can do. >> these are people who really love this country. you understand it. my father, my grandfather, my father was off the first ship in nagasaki. >> sean: i will stop you for one second. trumpets in the building. >> yes? >> sean: we should hear him come out any minute. but go back to that. >> he suffered and had brain cancer and had cancer from it. but you know what? every day we have the american flag flying in front of our home. it does not matter if you are rich or poor are famous or not famous if you truly love this country you will give up the money, you will give about the status, to do something for the men and women in this room on the culture he ultimately. everybody in this room has really volunteered to give their life up. for us. >> sean: my father, like so many in the greatest generation, he signed up, he fought for years in the pacific. and look at the guys. if you watch the movie

"saving private ryan" again it helps capture just the absolute horror. the courage when you are pulling up and you see nothing but read water from blood shed by your fellow americans and you have to swim in that water and you are below ground and being shot at by an enemy that is slaughtering thousands of people, and they did it. and they want and they were victorious. >> one of the things that a lot of people in the military who were not necessarily pro-trump saw when trump got shot and he stood up and said to fight! fight! fight! my friends of the military contacted me and said i have seen men a shot in war nobody got some like that. this is the man who is the ultimate fighter. and he showed us what it means to fight for this country. >> sean: and when you really think about there are a lot of things in life i think we all

take for granted. all of us realized but there are times when we do get introspective and times when we to reflect. i'm looking around this room and you see these highly decorated men and women. >> that is absolutely right. >> sean: and you see the privates in the room, on the young people serving their country. and you see the joy on their face. and this for them is an all volunteer military. >> what you are talking about the leadership in the room and you spend time with them tonight what you hear them say its we waited for a commander in chief. these are the men and women who have been around for 20, 25 years. they need to know that their legacy will be preserved with all who are leading now. they need somebody at the helm who understands their sacrifice, loves the country, weights! it is working out! usa chance! >> you can feel the energy. >> usa! usa! >> sean: they are chanting

usa. we are talking about the price of freedom. that is the price, the ultimate price. >> they are willing to pay it. price of entry. >> we all are as well. >> sean: we have to be. >> we have to be ready i say stay ready so you don't have to get ready. what part can we play? 20% of our current police officers, those departments across the country are former military. we have the military and our communities. thank them, support them, those veterans can be part of protecting our civilian communities hand pitching in to into bringing new recruits. we have the resources we just need the leadership. >> sean: you also need better policies. this was in november. defunded this how is that working out. in small towns and big cities? >> big cities as well. >> trump said he will restore integrity, confidence, and integrity in the american government. he went through what it was under joe biden. a crisis of trust, heretical

corrupt establishment provide sanctuary and protection for dangerous criminals that have been in our country from all over the world. our country can no longer deliver basic services at times of emergency. >> sean: you know. >> talking about the l.a. fires in north carolina. >> sean: no guidance as to when he is coming out. just telling the audience. this is what live tv is all about. >> every time the ban plays another song and that gets out of everybody left their phones. >> sean: i was told 8 minutes then i was told 5 minutes then e out. >> he has had busy day. >> they play the music you would normally walk out to. then they started playing christmas songs or something. >> sean: one of the great things i have a good radio for 35 years it is all unscripted, all extemporaneous. unfortunately i can talk for another four hours which is not good for the audience at home. >> what are you talking about? they listen to you for three hours a day when you were on television. >> that is not a lot.

>> four hours a day? >> everybody wants to hear what you have to say. >> sean: okay. well we get into fashion talk you lose me. >> 11! >> what did you think of melania's outfit, sean? >> i think. >> sean: i think melania represents everything that is stunning, class e, elegance, understated, there is a certain quiet strength in her. >> very strong. >> sean: very strong woman. i have also seen it because i have been around the two of them together. i want to give the details i will give a small story. i once had the opportunity i have known donald for 30 years now. and at one point everybody is going around the table and giving their opinion. and melania was the last person because she was sitting next to donald, she took by far the hardest position of anybody and

that was it. >> can i tell you? i meant melania before they were married. when they first started dating. and i remember sitting on donald's objective with his sisters. and everybody was saying she is the special one. melania was the independent one, the reserved one, she did not throw herself at him. she maintained her class. we all know she was going to be the one he would marry. >> sean: i had a big fight with jimmy kimmel once because melania was reading a children's book to these young kids and he went on his low rate that, seemed to be canceled, late-night show soon to be canceled that is not funny. >> four days a week. >> sean: they are run consolation watch all of those shows because they all suck. sorry, i'm used to prime time.

they are not funny, they are all political. the only one on late-night television that is funny that was greg gutfeld. the only one worth watching is great. that is why i say let not your heart be troubled greg will put a smile on your face. so he makes fun of her and i am like, okay,, if you want to have this fight let's have it. because she speaks six languages. you can barely speak one. you were not funny when you talk. so i went to twitter at the time , this is when i had access to my account, it was world war iii on twitter. i went after him and i said i will not stop until you apologize. >> that was before the lawsuit. >> sean: eventually he. >> all right. >> sean: he wanted to go away. we have had false alarms are not following. here we go. >> yes!

time. [applause] and i have to tell you with the military we really want to. [cheering] we really wanted. i want to thank obviously tremendous supporter of yours and if i ever got out of line she would get me right back in line when it comes to you melania, first lady, she has been fantastic. and are vice president you know him well he is all about you. he is a big believer in our military j.d. vance and usha! and i have other family members here. don is there somewhere. and if anke is there. where she? we have a lot of family members. tiffany is here, therein

was with us today. he is the tall one. he is doing a good job. today we celebrate the enduring strength and resilience of our glorious republic. so it is highly appropriate that we also honor the men and women who keep us safe. and that is what you are. your bravery inspires us, your surface unites us, and your sacrifice protects us all. we made a little speech today i think you probably saw it. who did see it or hear it a? did anybody? well i think we said a lot. and we said more than anything else that we love you, we respect you so much, and we have a big commitment to each and every one of you starting today america will be stronger and greater than it has ever been before. that is happening. that was a big win, that was a tremendous win we all worked hard for it.

and a big part of the reason that i one was because of my relationship with you. so we appreciated. under the leadership of my next secretary of defense who we just saw pete hegseth who is fantastic where is pete? i saw him backstage. i don't know there is so many people. how do you find anybody in this crowd? this is a big crowd. come on up here, pete. we will again build it the most powerful military the world has ever seen. we will have it. you know we did that for years ago and then it was a little bit dissipated. but we will do it again but much bigger, much stronger than ever before. also doing the iron dome all made in america. we will have a nice iron dome you will protect us with the use of the iron dome. instead of worrying

about political agendas you don't have to worry about that. only one a focus defeat think america's enemies we are not going to be defeated. we are not going to be humiliated. we are only going to win a win-win. we are going to win-win win. we really do have some incredible people working with us. so i have been looking around for generals like george patton, ulysses s. grant,'s stock has gone way up in the last 20 years wouldn't you say. we used to say bad things about him all of a sudden he is very well respected. but we all fight to win and we will win and we will win like never before in many ways. the economy the economy is going to be stronger. we will not let our nations are friendly and unfriendly nations push us around from any standpoint including the economy. we have something that they do not have. we have a power that they do not have. liquid gold under our

feet the likes of no other nations have. as i said in my inaugural address we will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into. it is called piece through strength. we won't have to fight the war. [applause] right? we don't have to fight the wars if we can do it without fighting has long as we have total victory we do it without fighting through our power and might we will lead the world to peace. our friends will respect us, our enemies will fear us, and the whole world will admire the unrivaled greatness of the united states military and i will tell you we made big strides. we totally rebuilt at the united states military. 2017, 2019, 2018, we rebuilt the entire u.s. military and now we will

do it again. and none of it has been dissipated by people who do not know what they are doing. we will do it again. and this is going to be the dawn of the golden age of america. this is the golden age of america. tonight i am filled with optimism for what lies ahead over the next four years. we will replenish the pride of our armed forces and the recruitment crisis. by the way the recruitment numbers are through the roof in the last two months. i wonder why. why are they? you know you have a little problem with recruitment that is not good. and now the numbers are hire than they have just about every you know what? they love what they see for the future of our country. they did not love what they were seeing the last four years it was ridiculous.

it is a big thing actually. big stories that recruited because god through the roof that is good. i want to thank every service member here tonight and across the globe it is an exceptional honor to join you again and serve this magnificent nation that we all love that we will make bigger, better, stronger, something that even you will be surprised. you will see that it will be led by our great military, the strength of our military. we will make our -- military so strong we don't have to use it. they will look at us and they will say no way there is no way we are going after that one. so i wanted to say to you, god bless you, god bless our armed forces, god bless the men and women serving overseas, and god bless the united states of america. thank you.

especially from the first time president trump served and now coming back i could not be happier. i mean they were devastated at the end of afghanistan the withdrawal was so disastrous. we lost so many lives, so many american citizens, so many american allies abandon to, and it created a domino effect across the globe that emboldened leaders like vladimir putin and kim jong il so this is fantastic. here we go! >> sean: this party is about to get started. lisa boothe let's get your reaction to all of this. >> sean, i am so excited it is liberation day for the united states of america. and for these men and women in uniform they have been liberated. they have the new commander in chief. and you look at the downfall of the barge and administration. the withdrawal from afghanistan that led to

the death of the 13 surface commanders. we have a new commander in chief that will be protected got on the cake after our nation. >> sean: how is it that donald trump brings back the village people from the 70s and it becomes the biggest hit and the country? >> to see the commander in chief there cutting the cake? hilarious. this room is rocking. all of these troops are so excited to be back. they are excited for the new direction with the ... >> sean: they all have their own style. it looks like melania his copy donald trump his style. and then j.d. is doing the old ymca. >> these men and women in uniform are having so much fun. they are dancing they are celebrating their new commander in chief and a new day for america, american revival. that is what they are

celebrating. >> i wish every american could be in this room tonight. i know they are with us. they are with us spirit and soul of. but this is the greatest day. it truly is. the golden age. and the vindication. >> sean: what a great way to start his inaugural address today our love that. >> amazing. it was amazing. >> sean: it was getting to present in our country between the borders on the economy. good grief. enough. >> like let me get to work. i have these executive orders and we will move forward. that is great. >> sean: answering more questions than joe biden answered in four years without a script. without somebody to pull him away, right? >> i mean who knows what joe biden is going to go on to do. but that's in, we have just experienced a very dark chapter of american history. i don't think we understand the depths of the corruption we saw as evidenced by him pardoning his family on the way out. but you know what? we have a new chapter in

american history. donald trump said today liberation day that god saved him so he can save america. that is what is happening this celebration, are men and women who sign onto save our country, to serve our country, but their lives at risk. >> sean: that is what makes this fall i think there is a lot of really good balls. a lot of good performers who have been playing. but to see these men and women who sacrifice everyday i think that is what makes it special. i think that is why the presidents came here first. >> you know, sean, yesterday the president went to arlington ceremony before he was sworn in today. he went to the tomb of the unknown soldier which is the most famous memorial in the cemetery and it represents the sacrifice of the past and the modern times. and he takes responsibility very seriously. being commander in chief the most important decision of the most solemn to make assenting troops into harm his way. he does not want to do that but he will protect

the country. >> sean: very clear and i don't think those hostages would have been released yesterday if he did not say all would break loose. >> absolutely he is full of strength and he is sending a message across the globe. you know something. these are people willing to lay everything on the line. willing to lay their lives on the line. and he experienced that himself. >> sean: he did. >> he understands that sacrifice sometimes comes unexpectedly and she was blessed by god. he was blessed by god to survive that assassination attempt. and i think that he has a renewed a feeling of like this is america. a renewed america. these are people willing to give up everything. why not come here first. show them that kind of same respect. >> one thing is j.d. vance as a marine corps veteran. when he was sworn in today at the capitol in the rotunda he put his hand on the bible that his grandfather gave him the day he left for the marine corps. so for this to come together tonight for him

full circle really is quite an example of the american dream. >> sean: by the way i lost all control of the show. earlier when it was judge jeanine and harris and ainsley talking about fashion. and i am way out of my league here. >> you are telling me you don't have a lot of fashion sense, sean? i think you were good. you like your genes. you were like a regular guy. >> be glad you were not wearing heels of right now. >> killing us. >> sean: my feet feel fine except it was a little bit cold walking over. >> barrie colts. -- very cold to. >> sean: i do not want that problem. >> do you feel like america has been saved? >> it does. >> we have a weight lifted off our shoulders a celebration. i don't recognize our country over the past four years. >> sean: hard to point it out and then last year it was so hard and it is like you don't know nine years of

demonizing i have to let you all go. >> see you, sean. >> sean: we have other guests. you are all amazing. thank you. for being so patient. we are flying by the seat of our pants all night but it has been a lot of fun. >> thank you, sean. >> army veteran wounded in afghanistan thank you for being here and thank you for being here. >> sean: well so amen. katie, lisa, sarah. donald trump, by the way, now making his way to the liberty ball which is literally downstairs from this ball. it is only day one of the trump presidency. according to donald trump his press secretary karoline leavitt earlier today he signed 42 executive orders, memorandums, proclamations, for a total of more than 200 executive actions plus 115 personnel actions and 16 minutes of oppressive q&a.

when has joe biden ever done 60 minutes of oppressive q&a? and a new insider advantage poll found that 56% of americans approve of donald trump his job performance has he starts his new turn -- term as president. by the way, grab your microphone behind you, sir. matches with us and steve and kaylee mcghee white. 56% approval rating for donald trump? >> the inoculation speech today it was a good call. went up two points periods greatest approval rating highest approval rating of the transition. right now to be honest with you i think that he is in the best position he has ever been on. this entire time both presidencies. >> sean: this was a special ball.

this was the military, this was his first stop. then we had the satellite which was great. head looks like flats will be coming out and playing any minute here. i love my friends from rascal flatts. they are great. >> i think it is great especially being here. my brother has been in the navy the past six years there such an overwhelming love among their military service members for this president because he knows that -- they know that he has their backs. each anyone they cares about every single one of them. you see this in his appointment of pete hegseth how he generally wants the -- genuinely wants the defense secretary to understand how he serves and what makes our defense department is so important. so great to see everybody here you can feel the enthusiasm. especially among our armed forces. >> sean: he also went into the field and republicans have a very thin margin. and what the president is doing now he did not

do on his own. but you will need congressional approval. >> exactly right. >> sean: but they have the house at the senate albeit a small margin. the answer is they have to unite they will went together or loose together. and we will know because tomorrow night i will have speaker johnson we will have a town hall with all of these guys. what are people telling you. what does your polo show? that people want congress to do. >> they will have a pulled out tomorrow but i have seen early numbers it is overwhelming. they want members of congress to follow donald trump his lead and get his agenda through rather than go his own way -- their own way. by a very substantial margin. they want congress to act as one. mixer donald trump gets his agenda and his people. that is very simple. i was really shocked it was that substantial but it is really overwhelming. >> sean: it really is overwhelming. when you think of if he

is able to accomplish this we got into this a little bit and last night show and secure the border for the criminals and the terrorists on the cartels and the murderers and it. if he is able to make this energy dominant the richest country on earth and also rebuild our military and get the next generation of warfare that is so transformative in my mind. >> that will go a long way towards him accomplishing today which he said he wants his legacy to be which is the peacemaker on the unifier. simply making energy making america vibrant again. economically prosperous, giving people a reason to hope, giving people a reason to pursue the american dream. he accomplishes all of that it is actually very simple. and you think about what we have been spared from. you think about the pardons that came out for biden his family members today. that was the gloves off momenta that revealed exactly what they would have done with power if they got it for another four years.

>> sean: you already poll joe biden pardoning hunter that was a disaster. >> what is incredible is he did these preemptive pardons. i think his numbers would be even worse tomorrow but i do not have to pull him again tomorrow. >> sean: you already know the answer. >> don't need to. no approval rating to do any longer. >> sean: i did not think the world will hear much from joe biden moving forward. i think donald trump will dominate the news and to watch and give a 60 minute queue and day unscripted without a staffer stopping him i think tells us even the media that does not like him they should be grateful they finally have access again. >> absolutely even when he was signing the executive orders he was terrific with the press. there is no boundary, there is no barrier to access to him. i think that is what the public so appreciates he is so transparent about who he is, what he hopes to accomplish, and they see hope in that. >> sean: they do.

what are we going to look for? if he got all of that accomplished today how do you top that tomorrow. >> i have no idea and i don't even want to this has been such an overwhelming day for all of us. a long road to come with you and see how the selection would turn out. and we saw it in the last week or two. you could have imagined three years ago we will be back where we are today. >> sean: three presidential elections in a row you called that you deserve a lot of credit. anyways, guys, good to see you. appreciate you being with us. the party will continue. it looks like rascal flatts will be performing. that is all the time we have left this evening thank you for being with us. do not forget our town hall tomorrow and we will have that with the speaker johnson and other republicans. stay with fox news channel continuing coverage throughout the night. thank you for being with >> trace: at 8:00 p.m. on the west coast 11:00 here in the nation's capital and t
