hours on parts of new orleans yesterday. louisiana is already under a state of emergency. hurricane watches are in effect along the coast up to 10,000 people having been ordered to evacuate. >> this morning severe weather watches stretch from louisiana to florida and at the moment on a levee along the swollen mississippi river in new orleans. the question on everyone's mind there i guess is are the levees expected to hold? >> reporter: well, they are, but they could over top. that is the potential here. we're talking about possibly up to 18 inches of rain coming into louisiana this weekend. you mentioned the already swollen mississippi river behind me. that combined with the storm surge could send the river up to 20 feet this weekend. that's the same height as some of the levees that protect the city, which was already hit by flash flooding. lines of powerful thunderstorms dumped up to 9 inches of torrential rains over new orleans wednesday in just three hours.

turning the streets in louisiana's biggest city into small rivers. >> so actually on the way home. >> reporter: trapping some people in businesses and homes along the historic french quarter. a possible tornado also touched down. >> i heard a big explosion like sound and the whole bedroom was blown out. my wife and dog were kind of under the rubble but they were fine. >> this is crazy. >> reporter: but the rain is the biggest worry going forward. this neighborhood is in one of the lowest points of new orleans, which is below sea level. so people are used to some flooding here but they say it's becoming more and more frequent and they fear it's their new normal. >> there is nowhere for it to go. that's kind of the fear of living in the bowl that we live in. >> reporter: another major concern for many are the city's drainage pumps. >> you can look around and see they got little twisters but every now and then it stops twisting so the pump is notreal. >> reporter: many levees got a

$ $ $14 billion overhaul after hurricane katrina in 2005. but some have started to settle and may not provide the intended protection if water levels on the mississippi river reach historic levels. >> people need to keep constant vigilance through the next few days to keep an idea what is going on and from there we can all stay safe. >> reporter: the army corps of engineers says it is working to reinforce low-lying areas. the city says all but two of the drainage pumps are operational right now but a large amount of rain in a short period of time can overwhelm any system. >> looks like you're on the west bank. of all the years i lived there, nine of them, never seen the levees that high. our chicago station, wbbm tv is tracking conditions in the gulf. how soon could this system rr: grng.pical storm barry? we aatchinng

system in the gulf of mexico likely destined to be a tropical storm by later today possibly a hurricane before landfall along the gulf coast. it is really intensifying. you can see it on our water vapor imagery expecting the storm system to be moving closer to making landfall probably into the weekend. could put new orleans on the right side of circulation. they may be looking at a storm surge from 3 to 6 feet. so much warm water in front of this storm system. and because those temperatures in the sea surface are warmer than average we have a lot of available moisture to work with on this. in terms of where the storm will go these are our models. they are anywhere from houston to florida, but the national hurricane center model does bring it onshore somewhere near louisiana. as we move into the weekend possibly as a category one hurricane. again, working with all that warm water to strengthen. now while we know wind could be an issue, rain is going to be the primary threat from this. we could be looking at upwards of 1 foot possible across parts of louisiana and into the gulf

coast region. anthony? >> thank you. a nationwide operation targeting thousands of undocumented migrant families will reportedly begin sunday. the "new york times" says raids are expected to take place in at least ten major cities. they'll be conducted by immigration and customs enforcement. omar vill franca is in dallas. what do we know about what is going to happen? >> reporter: good morning. i.c.e. is reportedly targeting 2,000 immigrants in the country illegally and have been ordered deported. the agency says they traditionally focus on those with a criminal history but any immigrant violating u.s. law could be arrested. >> they'll be starting fairly soon. >> reporter: president trump renewed his threat last friday to order mass deportations of undocumented migrant families. the raids were postponed in june after the president previewed the operations on twitter stating i.c.e. would remove millions of illegal aliens.

the raids have been a flash point in immigrant communities across the country. >> the so-called raids, it is interior enforcement. we do it every day. >> reporter: cbs news spoke with the acting commissioner mark morgan about the agency's plans last month. >> if you are a mother with a kid is that mother going to be handcuffed? no. but if you're a criminal alien and you've been convicted of murder, sexual assault, etcetera, are you going to be handcuffed? you bet. >> reporter: the possible raids come amid increasing scrutiny over conditions at migrant detention centers. on wednesday reporters toured a new hhs facility for children in texas. video shows clean rooms and children in classrooms, which contrast troubling images from a recent dhs inspector general's report that condemned unsanitary conditions and dangerous over crowding at some cbp facilities.

in an emotional hearing wednesday, she said she blamed unsafe conditions and poor medical care at an i.c.e. detention center in texas for the death of her 1-year-old daughter. lawmakers were visibly shaken by her testimony. some were brought to tears. it's like they tore out a piece of my heart, she said, lierk th like they tore out my soul. one of the groups getting a lot of attention, unaccompanied migrant children. yesterday the u.s. government said there are about 200 in cbp custody down from about 2500 in may. >> omar, thank you. we'll stay on top of it. right now breaking news from the middle east. britain said overnight three iranian boats tried to intercept a british oil tanker. the confrontation took place in the strait of hormuz a vital shipping lane at the center of current tensions with iran.

we're following developments from london. what happened? >> reporter: well, british military officials confirmed to us this morning that iranian boats attempted to impede that british tanker overnight before a navy escort issued verbal warnings to get out of the way. british naviee figuresy officia news this war ship wedged itself between the cargo ship and three iranian parra military vessels demanding safe passage of this cargo ship the british heritage registered to british petroleum. the iranian boats backed off. the scrap on the high seas comes a week to the day since british commandos seized an iranian super tanker off the coast of gibraltar over allegations it was breaking sanctions by transporting oil to syria. accusations denied by iran. just yesterday, the president of co andri reick te would be

escort their ships. tensions were already running high after a series of attacks on tankers in recent weeks blamed on iran. when we were last there u.s. navy gun boats took us to see up close the damage navy investigators told us caused by the kind of mines used by iran's revolutionary guard. this despite a significant u.s. military buildup in the region including the u.s.s. abraham lincoln strike carrier group and b-52 bombers. iran's revolutionary guard is denying it confronted any alien vessels especially british. they said if they had received the order to seize a ship, they would have done so immediately. >> thank you. labor secretary alex acosta says he will not resign over his role in jeffrey epstein's child sex abuse case. acosta spoke to reporters controversial plea deal with the

financeer in 2008. epstein served 13 months in jail and registered as aafr he w acc more than two dozen under age teenagers. we'll go to the white house. ben, why did acosta hold the news conference in the first place? >> reporter: well, we've learned president trump called acosta on tuesday and urged him to defend himself publicly. now, that is the same day the president defended acosta basically saying sometimes judges and prosecutors look back and wish they had done things differently in hindsight. but acosta says he did nothing wrong. >> we did what we did because we wanted to see epstein go to jail. >> reporter: labor secretary alex acosta says his only choice when he was a u.s. attorney was to either prosecute jeffrey epstein at trial or offer p deal that guaranteed at least some jail time. >> how do you weigh those two? if going to trial is viewed as the roll of a dice?

>> reporter: acosta blamed florida state officials whom he said were not eager to prosecute and said epstein would not have served any jail time if not for him but former palm beach state attorney barry krischer said in a statement mr. acosta's recollection is completely wrong. he said if there acosta were truly concerned with the state's case and felt he had to rescue the matter he would have moved forward with a 53-page indictment his own office drafted. since epstein pleaded not guilty to new federal charges of sex trafficking dozens of under age girls, more women have come forward this week saying epstein abused them. jennifer arose told nbc news she was 15 when assaulted by epstein in the early 2000s. >> he raped me. what hurts even more so is if i wasn't afraid to come forward sooner then maybe he wouldn't have done it to other girls. >> reporter: she plans to file a civil suit against epstein. on wednesday acosta expressed

sympathy for the victims but repeatedly refused to apologize regrets? >> we believe that we proceeded appropriately. look, no regrets is a very y wa interviews, it's very obvious that the victims feel that this was not a sufficient outcome. >> reporter: many democrats are still calling on acosta to resign in part because as labor secretary he is in charge of combatting human trafficking. of course, president trump is really the only one who can decide his fate and at his news conference acosta says they still have a great relationship. tony? >> thank you very much. cbs news legal analyst is with us. you prosecuted sex crime cases with adults and children. headlines out of the acosta press conference seem to be no apology and also he says he proceeded appropriately.

given the context back then. do you agree? >> not a bit. nothing he said changed my mind. when he talks about the fact that the environment for women was different in 2007 than it is in 2019, these are children, for heaven's sake. there is no way that we treated as prosecutors children differently in 2007 than in 2019. our job was to protect them. our job was to get them raelead for trial. i not only prosecuted these cases, in 2007 i'm serving on the board of the rape treatment center in california in los angeles. we made sure that child victims felt supported. we didn't just send an fbi agent or a cop out to see the go through with this and then just say, okay. and that's what happened here. >> i want to look reporting the "miami herald" did about this secret plea deal that acosta negotiated with epstein's

lawyer who is a former colleague of acosta's and they reported acosta allowed epstein's lawyers unusual freedom in dictating the terms of the nonprosecution agreement. how unusual do you think it is? >> i think it is unusual because he was intimidated by the strength of these lawyers. you have to remember there was ken starr, alan dershowitz there. these are hard cases. i agree. that may be the one thing i agree with acosta about. they're hard cases. well, when i was a young prosecutor and i mean young, we rel ish relished the idea the best and the toughest and the ones with the great reputations, defense lawyers were coming in because we wanted to try cases against them. we were not intimidated. >> acosta called it a roll of a dice but there was a 53-page indictment prepared. >> all trials are a roll of the dice. you can never guarantee a juror's verdict but the time is that is your job.

there was no statute of limitations here at sex trafficking at that time so what he did is he takes a nonprosecution agreement and shuts it down. for heaven's sake, jeffrey berman now in the southern district of new york, talk about the opposite, he is calling for victims to come forward. there was no urgency. they didn't have to do a nonprosecution agreement. >> you have dozens of victims here. you have a constant delay in telling them about this plea deal. and then them seeking restitution. what do you make of that? >> well, the judge in florida has declared that was illegal. the judge in florida is trying to find a sanction against the government. so i don't think we can take mr. acosta's word for this. and i'm very glad that the palm beach state's attorney came out and said, look. he wasn't superman. this is my words not his. he didn't get on his cape and fly over and save the day to be a hero.

he tried to portray himself as a hero. >> on the contrary it sounds like you're saying he was not up to the job. >> i think he was not up to the job. >> thank you so much for being with us. first on cbs this morning amazon unveils an ambitious plan to help employees keep up with artificial intelligence. see why the online giant says it needs more people not less as it invests in hundreds of good thursday morning. we are starting up today with low clouds and areas of fog along the coast and part of the day. inland, we are starting up with sunshine. plenty of sun across the bay warming up inland in the mid to upper 80s and about 90 degrees for warmest spots. for the pay the mid to upper 60s and low 70s. the mid 60s and breezy along tht. we continue with the warm-up through the rest >> it is very difficult for the

amazon is a global leader in the use of artificial intelligence and robots. now first on "cbs this morning," the online giant is revealing how it plans to invest more than $700 million on its human

workforce from provide 100,000 u.s. employees with new skills for the digital age. we also got a firsthand look at the company's newest fleet of robots to work with humans to help get your packages out for delivery. david begnaud spoke to an amazon ceo. david, what stood out to you? >> reporter: here's what we saw. robots are seemingly everywhere and will even more become a part of our future. here at "cbs this morning," some of our cameras are operated robotically. with that wave of workforce automation comes concerns that robots will take our place. but amazon tells us qualified feet are need more than ever. when you go to this 125,000-square-foot outside of denver, it looks like robots are running the show. but behind these more than 800 skilled devices are manager like michelle, who manages the daily flow of tract as a flow control specialist.

>> this is where we follow the packages in real-time. >> she says morrow boths means higher package volume. with that -- >> we need more associates to process the package, not less. >> reporter: she just amazon a few years ago. she had been out of the workforce for quite a while. she credits the employee's programs to relaunch her career. >> i had a lot of technical skills out of it that helped me get promoted. >> reporter: we traveled to seattle to talk to its worldwide ceo about how these programs are going to work. would you compare this to going to university and two years of training? >> it's kind of like grad school. >> reporter: and the program's names feel collegiate, like machine learning university for onsite training and amazon technical academy for engineer roles. >> they have an opportunity to advance in their career. and take advantage of those changes. >> reporter: you sound like your

p.r. people. give me the realistic version. what do you need your employees to start doing? >> creating great jobs. it means people can have a career more than is just the job that they entered. we have the responsibility to help acquire the skills that are going to be necessary as the world changes. when i look at the video of the robot i think that looks like a quick, efficient need of doing something, which would eliminate the need for a person to do it. we've added 300,000 people. what happened is we added more things that require more human work and judgment in certain areas, but we can add robots to do some things that humanities would just have to repeat over and over again. >> reporter: as technology races forward, the number of companies invested in training their current employees will climb

from 54% in 2018 to 84% by next year. that's according to a manpower group study. >> digital talent is not a luxury anymore. it's something that companies need just to survive. >> reporter: new york university business professor ari ginsburg says the so-called upskilling programs help companies retain employees and keep recruiting costs down. >> if you don't know how to manage the technology, you can fall behind very quickly. >> reporter: as for amazon, drones may soon be delivering your packages but the company assures us humans are here to stay. >> finish this statement for me. this is a big deal because -- >> it's going to create more career opportunities for 100,000 employees and we're just getting started. >> amazon may be right on time. >> according to an economic report, by 2022 at least 54% of all employees are going to require significant retraining and upskilling due to artificial intelligence and automated

technologies to meet the workforce leads. >> weren't there concerns about dangerous working conditions within those warehouses? >> i lot of concerns. i asked him about that. he kind of dodged the question. he seemed to recognize what i was talking about so. here's what he said. he said some people walk miles in a warehouse. these robots help with something like that. he didn't address it head on but he did say if you want a tour at amazon warehouse, we'll let you come in and look at anything you want because we stand by the safety standards we uphold. >> makes us nervous watching those robots moving around a warehouse. >> it must be easy to manage robots. they never have issues with child care, never crying in a bathroom stall. >> stop it. take the humanity out of it, why don't you? >> start running his camera with a robot. >> thank you very much. from artificial intelligence to the real and natural thing, vlad duthiers is talking about the

60s and low 70s. a mix of sun and clouds along the coast. we continue with the warm-up putting through friday, and into the weekend. saturday looks to be the warmest day of the week.

good morning to our viewers in the west. thursday, july 11, 2019. welcome back to "cbs this morning." the storm threatening to bring severe flooding to new orleans and the gulf coast. plus, firdemocrat tom steyer te us why he is running for president after he said he wouldn't. and how people living in a changing city are bonding at the dinner table. first, today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> the central gulf coast bracing for potentially devastating flooding from what could become hurricane barry. >> the already swollen mississippi river behind me combined with the storm surge could send the river up to 20 feet this weekend.

>> it is really intensifying, pe be moving closer to making landfall probably into the weekend. >> i.c.e. is reportedly targeting immigrants in the country illegally and have been ordered departed. any immigrant that is violating u.s. law could be arrested. >> british military officials confirm that iranian boats attempted to impede that british tanker overnight before a navy escort issued warnings to get out of the way. >> president trump called acosta and urged himself to defend himself. he says sometimes judges and prosecutors wish they had done things diffelye speapelosi held a closed-door meeting after days of public in fighting. she told the younger members of grease to stop tweeting. >> yeah. pelosi said the real fun is chaeking out me and chuck schumer on myspace.

i'm anthony mason with tony dokoupil and "cbs this morning: saturday" co-host michelle miller. gayle is off. louisiana is under a state of emergency and some evacuations have been ordered ahead of a potential hurricane. new orleans flooded yesterday after getting up to around 9 inches of rain. the muss miississippi river cou crest at 20 feet saturday. that could top levies. the storm is expected to make landfall saturday as a category 1 hurricane with up to 18 inches of rain and a storm surge of four to six feet. president trump tweeted this morning he will announce his next move this afternoon in the fight over adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census. sources tell cbs news the president will take executive action to add the question. >> any such move is expected to be challenged in the courts

immediately. even administration officials say they are skeptical it will be allowed. last month the supreme court temporarily rejected the question saying the administration did not adequately explain why it wanted to include it. critics claim that asking about citizenship would produce an inaccurate count because immigrants would be less likely to fill out the census at all. tom steyer, the billionaire investor and activist who spent millions advocating for the impeachment of president trump is launching a campaign to take his job. he joins the field of 24 other candidates seeking the democratic nomination for president after previously saying he would not run as part of our continuing series the road to 2020, he joins us for his first national television interview. welcome. >> nice to see you. >> what changed? you weren't in the race in january. you specifically said i'm not running. now you are. >> i said i was not running then. >> you did say that. >> yes. that's because i felt at that

point i had a responsibility to push the impeachment of mr. trump. we had six million people who signed our petition. we were still a lonely voice in the wilderness saying he is the most corrupt president in history, he is unfit, dangerous to the american people. >> are you giving that up? >> no, i will continue to fund that. i believe we have won that argument. i think everybody in d.c., including republicans realizes what we were saying for 20 months before people came around to it is obvious and true. there is still a question about whether it happens, but i felt as if watching that for the last six months and pushing it was a profound failure of government because everybody understands he should be impeached. it's a question of whether it will happen. and i also watched this campaig% and i felt as if i couldn't sleep because to me the biggest question facing the united states is not what we should do, but how are we going to break the corrupt stranglehold that corporations have on our government and how are we

actually going to get done things that the american people want? how are we going ton power to the american people. that is the question in front of us today. >> let's talk about what's in your win column. you poured $120 million into the midterms. some say you won the husband back for the democrats. millions into campaigns against big oil, against big tobacco, against corporate tax loopholes. why is $100 million running for president money well spent? . >> i don't think it's about the money. for the last ten years i have been trying to push power back to the people of the united states, to retake the government from what i think of as a corporate takeover that's taken place the last 40 years. that includes those propositions where we went around the legislatures to go directly to get people's votes. this is a continuation as far as i am concerned of the grassroots efforts that i have led for the last ten years, including

propositions, including registration, including doubling the turnout of young people in the swing districts last year to retake the house of representatives. this is about retaking the democracy from the corrupt corporate power that is determining what happens in washington, d.c. >> hearing you say that, first of all, surprising given your stature financially and your history. >> but also interesting because elizabeth warren, bernie sanders would say that's my campaign. >> right. >> other candidates as well. when it comes to climate change, which is another issue for you, there are numerous candidates, including jay inslee, who are taking on that issue. so what makes you different? and can you be different enough to qualify for a debate with 1% of the poll? >> let me say this. i am an outsider. i have been doing this successfully, beating the oil companies, the tobacco companies, closing tax loopholes from the outside for ten years. i don't believe that this failed government is going to be reformed from the inside. i believe it's a question of coming from the outside and

doing what i have been doing for the last ten years, going directly to the people because i think that we can see that washington has been unable to reform itself. isn't it going to take somebody who has a different perspective and a different history and has been doing it for ten years? >> we want to get some quick yes or no answers, if you would, on big issues. >> this reminds me of school. >> full disclosure. we went to school together. here some of the bigger questions that have emerged on the campaign trail. do you support proposals for free college? >> yes. now, every one of these questions has a lot of nuance to it. >> understood. >> but there is no question in my mind that we are underinvesting in the education of young people, including in college, and whether i go along exactly with senator sanders' exact proposal is a different question. the idea of us prong q prollegeu

lifelong skills training is something i absolutely support. >> yes or no, would your insurance plan provide coverage for undocumented immigrants? >> and so the short answer is going to be yes. once again, i want to talk about something broader, which is this. we have a failed immigration system. we should have comprehensive immigration reform, which is a classic thing that this government has been unable to do for decades. so in that context, what are you supposed to do with people who are part of society, who live here, contribute to society, and yet are somehow under the radar are living in the shadows? they are a part of society. >> we are doing yes or no plus, i guess. >> you can ask a question that has a million answers. >> fair enough. one more. yes or no, do you support relationship arations for the descendants of slaves. >> where i have gone on that is

we should do a study to go back and see what that means. but the other answer, if i had to give yes or no -- >> maybe? >> no, let me answer that more clearly, tom. we have a society where people don't start at the same starting line, and that has been something that has been built in through centuries of unfairness and injustice. and exactly the best way to address that as a society is a subject of real study. but whether to address that as a society is not a question. of course we need to address that. that's why i said a study because this is complicated. it's got to be perceived by americans as to be fair across the board and we have to accept the idea this is a society which has not treated people equally for centuries. >> are you, tom, expecting to make the next debate? >> i don't think i can make july because i'm just too late. i am going to take very seriously getting on the stage in september, october.

>> tom steyer, thank you for being with us. >> a man with a lot of nuances in his answers. a popular monthly gathering in new jersey is a throwback to a different era. ahead in our series "a "more perfect union" ", how a tradition that started after a good thursday morning. starting off the day with low clouds and areas of fog along the coast and part of the way. inland starting off with sunshine. we see plenty of sun across the bay area, warming up especially inland to the mid to upper 80s and about 90 degrees for some of the warmest spot. the debate in the mid to upper 60s and low 70s. mid 60s and breezy along the coast. we continue with the warm-up to the rest of the work week, and into the weekend with plenty of sunshine.

good morning i am tracking some trouble spots from the real-time traffic center. let's get right to that looking at the maps overall you can see we are experiencing quite a bit more orange and red, as far as the drive needs are concerned. let's start with the peninsula southbound 280 approaching 380, and accident slowing things

down, and backing things up. there is also an accident at the 92 and 101 interchange that seems to be slowing things down as well. slow and go over the san mateo bridge as a result of the hazard. off to the eastshore freeway, you are slow and go thanks to an accident that has been moved to the side. you are still down to 29 miles per hour as you approached the maze. elsewhere starting to thought on out of the north bay due to two southbound 101 issues. we are starting off the day with plenty of sunshine, at least for the south bay. san jose, a beautiful blue sky. although, foggy conditions along the coast and for part of the bay as we start your thursday. all of us will see the sun clearing as we go through the day. the upper 80s from concord and fairfield. 83 and san jose. for the bay, we are looking at plenty of sun with daytime highs in the mid to upper 60s and low 70s with a mix of sun

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it's time to bring you some of the stories that are the "talk of the table" this morning. this is where we each pick a story with we'd like to share with you and with everybody else. michelle, start us off. >> are you kidding me? i have the worst story. so sad. california utility pg&e reportedly knew for years its power lines were outdated and could spark fires and they failed to repair them. >> that's sad. >> it is sad. it sparked the fire in paradise that killed 5an apparently knew about it, they knew that their power lines on average were 68 years old, the mean life

expectan expectancy, 65 years old. the oldest steel towers, 108 years old and they knew that 49 of those towers, 49 needed immediate repair. >> wow. >> immediate repair. all right. i've got 1 1/2 "talk of the table." the first is jim boyneton. he was a yankees pitcher in the '60s. he died unfortunately yesterday at the age of 80. in looking back at his life, h was a pitcher in the '6 os but what he's best known for is writing the book "ball four." >> never heard of it. i'm learning something. >> it was a diary of a year of his in the big leagues, and it revealed the true nature of the game behind the scenes, and at the time sports writers didn't delve into that. there was misbehavior, womanizing, drinking, drugging. >> a lot of players were not happy he wrote that. >> it was a lot of screw you shakespeare. and the other half of my "talk

of the table," at the end of the automation segment i did with david begnaud, i said it must be easy to manage machines because they don't get sick or have to deal with child care and some thought it was a sex it comment. actually i was thinking about me. i thought, huh, mulch we limit men who do not cry in a staal it affects humans. i was talking about humans. . what have you got, tony. >> a kid named drake made the cutest mound move ever. it happened at a kalamazoo growlers game. take a look. >> coach drake asking for the ball. giving him a quick word, quick word of encouragement for the entire infield. talking a little bit of strategy here.

trying to figure out how they're going to keep up this defense they have against kokomo. >> what i love about this is how straight the announcers played the whole thing. nobody quite sure what's going on here. >> the video's gotten hundreds of thousands of views. >> look at the stance walking back. >> he's got the moves down. he's mimicking every coach they've ever seen. this is the team mascot. the team plays on the north league. i love this guy. >> you know what? good advice like a kid. play like a kid, play like you love it, remember why you got in. >> the california mizzou growlers say coach drake is going to make repeated appearances and we look forward to them. this morning we have a first look inside a new book that's expected to have both democrats and republicans in th cald icil war a thee of president trump."

it features more than 300 interviews with top republican leaders of the past 20 years including president trump and it explores how a revolution in the gop propelled him to the white house. tim al berta is here first on "cbs this morning." good morning. >> good morning. >> thanks for being here. you basically looked at the political climate that created this moment and what do you see as being at the root of it? >> look. i think there's a collective instinct for all of us to examine this incredible land scape and the polar university in the country and lay it all at the doorstep of president trump and i think that's a mistake. what i try to explain in the book is what you've had swirling now for over a decade is displamt and socioeconomic dislocation and an enormous amount of insecurity and

anxiety. >> you write his was a canopy of discontent under which the grudging matches could congregate about an era of a nation they no longer recognized and a government they know longer recognized. >> that's right. that's pretty good. look. i think it's important to understand that donald trump was able to appeal to not just a particular section of the traditional republican electorate. he was in some ways able to expand the republican party in reaching new voters, but, of course, in politics, for every action there's an opposite reaction. so while bleeding more of the suburban night republicans, he was able to appeal to a lot of traditional down-scaled rural and conservative democrats who had never voted in many cases. >> one of the criticisms of president trump is not only that he's -- this is -- i've got to go with this question here. a lot of people on the democratic side but also many republicans are wondering whether there are members of congress who at some point are

going to challenge the president not only on his populist ideas but many will say are nativist and racist. in your reporting did you find any member of congress who you said, e i'm almost there and i ooh. going to challenge him soon? >> a couple of answers to that question. first to be a member of the modern republican party, circa, is to pledge undying allegiance to donald trump or else. we've seen that with the likes of jeff flake, mark sanford, justin amash who left the party after calling for impeachment of the president. you're going to be hard-pressed to find any republican on capitol hill who's going to openly disavow the president or challenge him in any significant way. that said, if you get them behind closed doors and especially a coupl of bud lights in them, they'll tell you chapter and verse how much they dislike the president. >> is that cowardess to talk

behind closed doors? >> definitely. what you're hearing is not what they actually feel, but they're sort of locked in this kang of fear as it relates to the president and they understand full well that if political self-preservation of the game, they cannot afford to cross donald trump. >> you're especially critical of vice president pence writing he quotes so pitticly subjugated himself that his friends wondering if president trump had blackmail on him. are republicans not sold on mike pence as a successor to donald trump. >> i think that's an understatement. i think that mike pence has wanted to be the president for a very long time. he went home and ran for governor of indiana thinking that would put him on the trajectory toward the white house. he was in real risk of losing his job as a governor when donald trump put him on the presidential ticket. that's been a lifeline.

he's been very loyal and that's what president trump expected. in so doing he's alienated some of his staunchest allies in the republican party and i see it very difficult for him to have a seat at the table in the oval office that he once hoped to have by virtue of his sufs under donald trump. he's obviously one example. there are any number of republicans from paul ryan, mitch mcconnell on down, people who were once very critical of donald trump and mike pence was one of them. he was very, very critical of donald trump privately and a little bit publicly. but when the time came to pledge allegiance or leave the party, everyone made the same decision. >> that's strictly because they feel how voters will cast their vote come the next election. >> absolutely. look. you have the entire republican governing class who when they saw president trump's ascent, they had it all wrong. the message, whether it was compassionate or conservative under george w. bush, whether it

was the notion that free trade was universe rallally availablee american worker, the wall street editorial board is what republican voters used as their political bible. and, in fact, a lot of republican voters and voters across the country were in the middle of this sort of populist reckoning, and not many people saw it. donald trump saw it very, very early, so when all of these republicans began to realize how forceful it was, they realized they needed to get with him or get out of his way. >> tim al berta, thank you sfr being here. american carnage is out july 16. every month people from different backgrounds are brought together by a unique tradition. >> you're here on your own time. why? >> i'm here because i love this town. agree up here. i would always come down. >> food is pretty good too. >> ahead in our series "a more

i'm glad i was invited. >> what do you think? is it the food or the people living around you? what's the best part? >> both. >> both? >> mostly the food. >> this dinner has been so well received that arlette braxton tells us sometimes there's standing room only. the local high school has started hosting community meals as well. >> i'm hungry. >> i know. >> her rice and beans, oh, my gosh. >> but not everybody's rice and beans. i saw that popeye there. somebody didn't cook their meal. >> everybody brings food. >> i get it. >> a total high. >> it is. it takes place at a public housing area, but across the street is these trendy condos and people come. >> a good mix. >> good old-fashioned meal. all right, don, thanks. on today's "cbs this morning's" podcast we hear from lease say tddai, author of
