here is the radar. nothing is showing up on it. as we said earlier it is kind of a good thing because temperatures aren't cold enough tonight that we would be seeing snow but the radar hasn't had some work here in quite sometime. we have gone now 18 consecutive days with no rainfall in eastern iowa. you have to go back over a year to find a streak of dry weather like that. it has been dry. expect it to stay that way through tomorrow. then a weather system on tuesday should bring this particular stretch of dry weather to a will be back in the upper teens to around 20 degrees. a very chilly start to the day once again. however with some sunshine around tomorrow temperatures are expected to moderate a bit and we should get it back up there to around 40-42 in many locations. what a change from last week. you recall on thursday we had a high temperature of 73 degrees. tied a record here in cedar rapids. this morning our low temperature down to 16 degrees.

11:04 pm
morning, we are starting to see a bit of -- light rain expected to develop here and you can even see a couple of spots where there is some pink. that is where there might be a bit of mix. as temperatures warm the precipitation turns to all rain and passes through through the area. at this point our models are indicating the potential is there for a few areas to see up a to -- three quarters of an inch. lows around our northern counties. to the south temperatures here upper teens to around 20. light easterly winds. tomorrow temperatures make it back to the upper 30s to the low 40s here in the east. the extended forecast has our showers on tuesday only 39.

i took down north carolina, iowa state, and texas - this last year uni took down north way state and texas. what is next for them? 11th ranked savier. then jacobson and the panthers looking to win the invitational. first half, morgan step back triple right between the eyes. morgan was hot all night. he led uni with 20. before the half ben cook showed some polish in the post. two points for cook.
11:09 pm
jones dunks all over him. uni goes down 67-59. they are not done just yet. these two teams will play again on saturday. to hilton we go. first hard morris doing it all. here is one of his assists. jackson right there to help a brother out. his 3 is cash. jackson was one of eight cyclones in double the guy that led the way, long, rises to finish an alley-oop here. the cyclones put up 130 against them and win by 67. after iowa's first loss of the season on friday night, fran was not happy. he wasn't happy about letting them shoot over 50% and he wasn't happy his hawkeyes had more turnovers than assists. two days later, fran was a happier man.
11:10 pm
valley. peter jock unconscious from the get go. there is a swish from 3-point he was shooting -- tyler cook was slamming -- two hands for safety there - the powerful jam puts iowa up 46 to 33... they picked it up in the second half -- maishe dailey the steal, isaish moss the finish -- iowa bounces back to win... 95 to 67 - and fran's happy with his hawkeyes... "you know how we performed at the start of the second half, because really in all three games, start of the the intensity level, the focus, the concentration, the execution at that juncture was critical. and we really did a good job there. i was proud of the guys" to the ladies now - iowa women at home against south dakota state... this one tight in the fourth quarter -- ally disterhoft - she has the clutch gene - the long-two cuts the lead to one with under a minute remaining... after a jackrabbit free throw -- the hawks get the ball back -- and megan gustafson cleans up the mess -- she lays it in and ties things up at 64 with
11:11 pm
miller didn't come all this way to iowa for nothing -- she drops in a jumper in the final seconds - and that'll hand the hawkeyes their first loss of the season... 66-64 -- it's gonna be a tough road for bluder's bunch - and they better get used to stiff competition... "we let an opportunity really they better get used to stiff competition. >> we let an opportunity really slip through our fingers today. that is what really hurts. this one could hurt us end of the year. definitely we have a tough schedule but the problem is -- it is not one thing to play a tough schedule, you do have to win some. >> the uni women picked up a win today. 72-57 over wisconsin park side. on a cold windy day in champagne, iowa followed the formula to perfection. run the ball, win special teams and most of all play
11:12 pm
different than the unit we saw get handled by penn state. on saturday iowa held illinois to under 200 yards of offense, limited the ground attack to two and a half yards per carry, for forced a couple of turnovers and the end result was a shut out. >> it is exciting when our defense is playing at a high tempo like this. it is a good thing that we are detail - little more determination out there on the field - the decisiveness - knowing your responsibility and then attacking it - it looked like collectively we played a really good there today - and when you get it looks like we really played a good game out there today the play off brackets were released on sunday. for the first time since 2013 uni failed to make the field. now a long off season awaits the panthers. uni isn't far from elite status but to get back there they will reflect and rebuild.

11:16 pm
around 42. tomorrow afternoon not a bad day. pretty typical for this time of year. but no more 60s and >> dickerson: welcome back the "face the nation." i'm john dickerson. while republicans are busy preparing for a trump administration, democrats are doing some soul-searching. >> when you lose the white house to the least-popular candidate in the history of america, when you lose the lose the house, and when two-thirds of governors in this country are republicans, it is time for a new direction for the democratic party. >> dickerson: one of those auditioning for the job as the new head of the democratic party is minnesota congressman keith ellison. he joins us from minneapolis. congressman, what should the new direction for the democratic party be? >> well, we've got to strengthen
11:17 pm
country where democrats are thriving and working every day. the power needs to be in their hands. we need the make sure the resources are with them and everything else. we need the prioritize voter turnout. that doesn't mean get out the vote at the end of the election. that means 365 day a year engagement relationship building with voters around what their priorities are. we got to make sure that the democratic party is not just democratic but seen to be democratic. that means we got to have systems inla that everybody who participates in a primary is perceived to have an equal shot as everybody else. and we have to make sure that... yes? >> dickerson: continue your list. >> well, i mean, we've got to also create more collaboration. we have democrats who hold office with secretaries of state. those folks run the levels we need the stand up for them. city officials, college dems, organized labor needs to have a
11:18 pm
more respect in the democratic party. we've got to make sure our veteran, democratic veterans are strengthened and feel like they are fully included. we have got to just make sure that the democratic rank and file really owns the party and feels that it is theirs, that it is fair, and that's what we've got to do. >> dickerson: the reason i wanted you to finish your list is i noticed donald trump wasn't in it. there are a lot of democrats organizing, planning, and setting themselves up as an and using that as an organizing principle. that wasn't in your list. how should democrats think about donald trump? 100% opposed, work with him? >> well, donald trump is already proven where he's going with the thing. there was a political article entitled "why wall street is suddenly in love with donald trump" he's not derange the swamp. he's filling it up more. and there's going to be more swamp creatures than ever
11:19 pm
he's not doing what he said he with was going to do for average, working americans. we have to be there to work with all those folks who may have not voted or even voted for him. they are our natural constituents. but we have to show them that we really care about them, that we respected their voice, and that we are going to be fighting for them tooth and nail. but i would say the democrats, we should not make donald trump the pick to l point of all of our energy. we need to make the people, the average we are fighting for and make that crystal clear every single day. the reason we did not... >> dickerson: let me ask you, congressman. one argument some democrats say is democrats should not normalize, a buzz word you hear constantly, donald trump, not treat him as a normal president. what's your advice to democrats about that? >> well, we should be authentic, and he's clearly not normal. he ran on... he talked about jobs, and yet he has hurt workers all over this country;
11:20 pm
even in florida. he has undermined workers. he's hurt small business people and not paid contractors. his level of abuse of working people is extraordinary. and not to mention his racism, misogany extraordinary, as well. it's hard to normalize that. we can never do it. but i would just say that it's not about donald trump. we're going to fight him because he stands against our value system. but if we make the average american's needs, our priority, people who want t people who want to see their kids go to college, people who want to earn a decent living, people anxious about the plant closing down, moving to another country and selling them back the products they used to make. if we make those people the priority, we will win and donald trump will be relegated to be a footnote in the dustbin of history. that is what we have to cork focus on our people. >> dickerson: congressmen, thanks so much for being with us. we'll be right back. we'll be right back. >> any time.
11:21 pm
and great service. over seventy-five years. wait. seventy-five years? that is great. speaking of great, check out these hot riffs. you like smash mouth? uh, yeah i have an early day tomorrow so... wait. almost there. goodnight, bruce. gotta tune the "a." (humming) take a closer look at geico. great savings. and a whole lot more. safety doesn't come in a box.
11:22 pm
or when it's convenient. it's using state-of-the-art simulators to better prepare for any situation. it's giving offshore teams onshore support. and it's empowering anyone to stop a job if something doesn't seem right. at bp, safety is never being satisfied. and always working to be better. >> we have a few problems the democrats are already pushing back on our immigration act because they said save finding 11 million illegal immigrants is going to be parred. -impossible probably. >> they say it's going to be harder to deport them. >> so maybe let's not do it. >> don't do it? >> yeah. scrap it. >> scrap it? >> scrapped. scrapped. >> okay. maybe we'll just talk about that later. let's move on the obamacare. as you know, 20 million people use it.
11:23 pm
of them like it. >> keep it. let's just keep it. [laughter] >> i'm sorry. keep it? >> yeah, keep it. all of it. no change. >> okay. let's just hold that for later. all right. >> dickerson: "saturday night live" made light of the policy changes ahead for the new administration, but in all seriousness, whether the president-elect will stick with his campaign promises and can they be enacted? we experts, most with conservative leanings. lanhee chen is a cnn political commentator and fellow at the hoover institution at stanford youth. grover norquist is president of the conservative group americans for tax reform. maya macguineas is president of the non-partisan committee for responsible federal budget. and david frum is a senior editor atlantic and a former
11:24 pm
>> dickerson:david, on this quef potential conflicts and trump business, what do you make about initial responses how that will be handled? >> not good. i think the very first order of businesses for publics who want to ensure a successful administration is to corruption >> proof the administration. that's going to be a big problem. the surest way to do is that is to passes a law formalizing a law that the president must publish his tax returns: it may or may not be possible. the president may or may not be the way for the public to be protected is for people to know what the president has, whether he receives any benefit, because of the particular nature of donald trump's businesses, everything that happens at the trump organization flows into his tax return. so if we can see the tax return, we can know, is anyone trying to bribe him? has anyone succeeded? >> dickerson: grover, donald trump campaigned on draining the swamp. he campaigned on getting rid of self-dealing in washington. it was not a small issue some
11:25 pm
will all get worked out, would be you expect brighter lines from a candidate who spent so much time talking about changing washington? >> yeah. look, you want to change all of washington. the focus on trump is interesting, but there's a house, there's a senate, there are governors, an entire bureaucracy. we need to reduce the amount of money the federal government spends if you don't want people stealing it, the best way to do that is to have less of it spent. very important that the republicans maintain their ban on earmarks. earmarks of corruption in washington, d.c., for years and years and years. the republicans ended that. some people want to bring it back. we should make sure, one, we stop that, and, two, instead of having money for roads come to washington, dc, where we then send it back out with a series of regulations and strings on it, including the davis-bacon act, a racist act passed in the 1930s to keep african americans competing in those jobs, it
11:26 pm
cost of anything the federal government touches by 25% to 33%. one, get rid of the davis-bacon act. west virginia just got rid of their version. wisconsin did. a number of states have abolished that. we should at the federal level, and we should let states raise their own money and build their own roads and bring trillions into washington, dc, to spend. real corrupting. >> dickerson: lanhee, grover had a nice list done, but back to the president, who is no small actor in politics in washington. what could he do, other than what david suggested, which is publishing those tax returns, what else might you expect from a president who ran so forcefully on the idea of changing the way washington works in terms of his own relationships? >> i think certainly he should hold himself to a higher standard. if there are concerns particularly about what's happening within the dealings in his family business, he should think about ways to put up more vigorous fire walls frankly between what his family is doing
11:27 pm
might be doing with the people's business as president. so i think important for him to think about that. i think this issue of lobbyists is important. i think the administration or the president-elect's administration kind of turning around and saying, we are going to make a serious effort to ensure that there is not the kind of revolving door we may have seen in previous administrations by putting in place, for example, this five-year ban. i think that's a great idea. the essence of the trump candidacy is as the outsider. it's crucially important for his credibility but also the were elected with him for him to behave in a way that's completely above reproach. >> dickerson: let me ask you now, switching and going back to grover's point, the budget. so we have promises that were made on the campaign trail, and then we have the reality of the budget. where should peopleing to figure out where the rubber meets the road, what should they look to? >> for starters, president-elect trump is going to be inheriting the worst fiscal situation of any president as judged by the debt relative to the economy.
11:28 pm
he's walking into office. so he's got a tough starting point. he spent a lot of time on the campaign talking about the portion of getting that $20 trillion debt back down. and yet we looked at the proposal, but he put forth during the campaign. they would, in fact, add over $5 thril to national debt, and that's on top of borrowing $9 trillion that we are poised to do if we this nothing. so he has a huge challenge ahead of him. he's also going to be working with the republican congress that for years has said very important to balance the budget over a ten-year period. the question is:now that they have the house, the senate and the white house, are they suddenly going to pull back from those fiscal goals because he has these unpaid-for-tax cuts, infrastructure spending, increases in defense, lots of things that are going to balloon the debt, or are they going to hold those fiscal goals which are very important for helping to grow the economy. >> the flip side is donald trump
11:29 pm
security. remember, the three biggest drivers of federal deficit and debt going forward are health care spending, social security and net interest on the debt. so unless we do something about those quickly, this is a problem like compounding interest is a good thing when you invest, this is the opposite of that. so it's crucially important. i'm glad to see that republicans have begun to focus on medicare reform. that's the more intractable of the two problems between medicare and social security. i think it's important for him to revisit what he said during th want to touch social security. >> that's right. >> i think it's important that we look at things like the retirement age and the growth of benefits. >> there is something surreal. we're in a city that's had a two-party system. there's a republican party, the democratic party and the trump party. the republican party has priorities, and lanhee is the expert on what those are and should be. they're right and important. but the president has his own priorities, and they are summed up with that photograph of him
11:30 pm
sign that was tweeted out. what is going to be very important is for the republican party to accomplish its goals, it must prevent the trump party from accomplishing its goals, which are of a very different and much dirtier order. >> you can start where there's tremendous agreement. the tax proposal that trump has put forward is very similar to the one that's been put forward by the house republicans, brady and the ways and means committee. and ryan, paul ryan. taking the cor 35% to 20% or 15%, i prefer trump's 15, but 20 is progress that. would be tremendous. going to full expensing, which both plans have would shoot up growth. you'd look at growth from 2% to 4%. the most important thing the president and the house and senate can do is get economic growth back on path. we've had anemic growth and recovery. we've been in recovery for seven and a half years, but it's been the losest recover i in a long time. we need to be growing at 4%.
