nashville and escalating crisis in a president yet to sign that covid relief bill leaving millions in peril, relief measures expire in just hours. more on that in a miss. first to the breaking news from nashville, tennessee. the downtown area remains sealed off more than 30 hours after a christmas morning explosion that rocked music city. releasing this photo of the rv parked right outside an at&t building reduced to rubble by the explosion. look at that. so far officials have very little beyond this. >> initial evidence does show that the early morning explosion was a deliberate bomb being set off in our community. >> so we're also getting a look at new video captures the moment the bomb went off. [ explosion ]

>> among the latest details investigators say possible human remains have been found near that site but they gave no indication of a possible motive, and here's the front pacge of today's "tennessean" newspaper. evacuate now. warning to leave the area minutes before the explosion. let's go now to msnbc's shaquille brewster joining us from the scene. it shaq, what a crazy story. all hands on deck there. police, atf what more are you learning? >> reporter: still waiting when we'll hear an official update from the fbi. lead agency investigating this massive blast area. you see from the images how large the area is. takes up several wlok bloblocks area. agents sifting through it finds whatever evidence they can. the timeline how it all played out. to the effect of how big this area is, we know in the past

hour or so, tennessdidn' the te governor sent a letter to the president saying 41 businesses were damaged including one building collapsing. the timeline, rv sent out by the fbi, see it on your screen, arrived around 1:30 in the morning. and 5:00, 5:30 it started blaring out a warning. police were already on the scene responding to reports of possible shots fired and instead heard that warning from the rv. six officers, crediting for helping evacuate the area and saved many lives pushing people out responding to the warning. listen to what the police chief said about that moment and how many lives were potentially saved. >> officers immediately began knocking on doors, and evacuating residents here not

knowing if the bomb was going to detonate immediately or if it was going to go off in the time it was stated. these officers didn't care about themselves. they didn't think about that. they cared about the citizens of nashville. >> reporter: the explosion, that bomb going off around 6:30 local time. i want you to look at this video just shot this morning of broadway street here in downtown nashville. if i've ever been here before, it's a popular street with lots of people walking around. this is the mood you have here on the ground. it's very quiet. you see police have a strong presence here. police are blocking off several areas. an eerie sight to see they're going through trying to control the scene and go through and process everything. >> shaq, the description of that voice that was emanating from the rv with the warning, people described it as being creepy, or eerie. can you imagine on christmas morning?

>> reporter: yeah. like out of a movie. the description i heard. i spoke to a witness last night who heard that description and actually first reported the gunshots and said she called 911, looked out the window and saw that rv and heard the warning. she heard music from the rv. a detail confirmed by police and also said it started to have a countdown. you have 15 minutes. this is an active bomb, if you can hear this. creepy. people left hearing that and then the bomb actually went off. also the details police are going through right now. they're going through all of that video that you see from the many business that area. it really is a situation that, repeating what i heard already, but something truly out of a movie. >> yeah. absolutely. shaq, thank you so much from downtown nashville. joining me, former atf special agent in charge and former msnbc law enforcement

analyst. jim, first you are there in nashville. a former atf special agent in charge. what do you know that could clear up some of the mystery behind this? i mean, first of all, how creepy is this whole thing? heard anything new about it? >> well, you know, just been looking at a closely myself. talking to some people i know that area so well. i know the streets. worked bombings on those streets, large 200-pound dp dynamite bombings, union strikes all around nashville, used to have a lot of bombings in the '70s. i know the bomb squad well, the police department. this is my backyard here. people should understand one thing here. i'm glad shaq showed you the picture of broadway in nashville. a lot of americans know that street, but the tourist area, alex, is an l-shaped tourist district. that street that shaq showed you is broadway. six lanes wide, you can see it right there.

walking down a few blocks you get to second avenue just before the river and turn left and walk up second. where the bomb was. when you walk up second it's a narrow canyon. broadway's wide. if you put a bomb in the middle of broadway, you're not going to get this channel canyon effect, a wider effect. turn left on second and go up, the tallest spot in the canyon is right next to the at&t building. in fact, the buildings on each side of the at&t building are lower-level parking garages. so the attack may have been on the at&t building. it can't be ruled out. although the vehicle was not pressed up against it. but it is also the tallest spot in the tourist district with buildings on each side in the narrower spot of the tourist district. so i think it's possible that the bomber chose that to get the most blast effect going straight up, and i think looking at all

of the videos that this bomb may have been gas enhanced, it's going to be a high explosive or a blasting agent, like a slurry or ammonium nitrate and it is, may be gas as a lot of flames on the video and a lot of times, you know, bombers do that. a hollywood trick for mothers. y you -- movies. bombings aren't always like that. different explosives have different flame throws. a large bomb. human remains, alex? the bomber? big question. is it even human? first question. if human is it the bomber? could be. could be somebody he killed, took their rv, that's the body. could be a homeless guy on the street. >> yeah. so the enormity of the blast, jim, the fact you describe this l shape and the fact broadway where shaq was standing was damped. 41 buildings damaged.

how powerful of a bomb is this? i mean, is this the kind of thing that just anybody could put together? >> there's a lot of planning, alex. a lot of effort. some money spent. there's a lot of time. this could be a few hundred pounds of explosive explosives. not thousands like the murrah building. i haven't seen a big crater in the street indicating there was thousands of pounds, but there is significant structural damp a damp and it goes far and wide. a significant amount. hard to exactly tell because it matters what the explosive materiel was to be able to tell the weight. >> so, look. give me a sense of a profiler experience base and the way this attack unfolded? what do you make of potential suspects and is there any chance that officials might know who he or she is yet? someone they're targeting? could that ham this quickly? >> yeah.

you have great questions. i'm not a profiler. i'm a commander but worked with them extensively and supervised atf profiles and worked with them on many cases. so, yes, you're right on. i think that they probably have an idea, maybe a tag number already off this rv, because if you circle that district, that tourist district in nashville, cameras pick you up all over the place. not just on second. probably have a tag number, close to it, know who owns it, or where it was stolen from or rented from. >> asking about the prospect of someone who puts out a warning? seems peculiar you wouldn't want to do it inbusier. a warning saying, "hey, get away." what does that tell you? >> right. well, it telling you a few things. one, could be he wanted to destroy the at&t center. that's still with the realm of

possibility. second, a spectacular suicide and the bomber's in the vehicle and wants this spectacular event. going to shoot himself up for the cosmos and he may have a message also that he already mailed, say the day before christmas nap may arrive today to the media, the police. >> that's true. >> or in -- in that mailing could be the answer. >> right. >> that's one thing. another thing, nobody's in the van. could have been someone that did it that wants to say, i have these capabilities. if you don't meet my demands later, you'll see, you know what i can do. you'll see more. >> exactly. jim kavanaugh, extraordinary times. thank you for breaking it down for us. meantime, everyone, the day's other big breaking news. millions of americans staring into a financial abyss. more than 14 million could lose enum employment benefits by end of the day if the president doesn't sign the new covid relief bill. right now he's refusing to sign it unless congress boosts direct payments from $600 to $2,000 per

bern. a move congressional republicans already blocked. go to nbc's josh letterman in west palm beach, florida, right where the president is spending his holidays at mar-a-lago. took months for congress to pass this bill. how are they reacting to the president holling it up in the final hours? >> reporter: deep frustration among both democrats and republicans in congress, alex. republicanly because they left town thinking was a done deal and did it because the white house was saying, publicly on tell vevision as well as lawmak on capitol hill the president intended to sign it. the situation might be differ if the president were back in washington rolling up his sleeves saying, look, guys. got close. didn't get where we need to be pip sit do. sit down, work it out for the american people. instead threw a grenade into the process and then came to south florida where the president spent most of his time golfing. he was on the golf course the

last two days, likely would play golf again today except the weather was a little too chilly for that to be a comfortable activity. instead spent the morning tweeting grieve is messages about the election. tweeting again insistence congress raise those direct payments to $2,000 per person as opposed to $600 tweeting why would politicians not want to give people $2,000 rather than only $600? meantime, lawmakers are struggling to figure what exactly the president would be willing to sign? because he said nothing to that effect horne that twitter video earlier in the week. fake take a listen to what a member of the house democratic leadership had to say about it this morning on msnbc. >> we don't know what the president will do, because i'm not sure he know what's he will do. the constitution anticipated a rogue presidency. a presidency out of control.

so that's why they separated powers between the branches and gave congress the authority to overcome a president who fails to do his job. who in this case would either veto or fail to sign legislation. so my republican colleagues have a choice. join us and send a clear message to the president if he doesn't sign the legislation, you know, we will override his veto, and put it into law without the president. >> reporter: and that's going to be a heavy lift considering the fact the president still hasn't taken any action on this as of yet alex. meaning no veto on this at the moment for them to override. meantime, you're one of millions of americans whose self-employed, a gig worker, relying on federal unemployment insurance the last many months during the pandemic? your assistance from the federal government runs out end of today. it other critical relief programs including that addiction moratorium and medical expense deductions set to run out when the clock strikes

midnight heading into the new year. >> just extraordinary. already afternoon there on the east coast. okay. no time like the present. thank you very much, josh. joining me now, zerlina maxwell, sirius xm and host of the show "zerlina" on peacock and former aide from the george w. bush white house and senior adviser to the lincoln project and contributor to the "l.a. times." new one for you. nbc news and "usa today." welcome all of you. zerlina you first. this christmas weekend, millions of americans hours away from losing unemployment benefits. millions on the brink of eviction. got millions more hungry and the bill that could provide relief is just sitting on the president's desk. how frustrated are you seeing our country in crisis, while politicians are really playing politics when people's lives are on the line? >> i think it's nothing new for this administration, but particularly galling, because not only did he blow up the deal

after it was passed, all he needed to do was sign it and then could have gone play golf. instead, chose to blow up a golf and now sitting at his resort, alex, while people are waiting for relief. i can't think of anything more representative of this administration. callous disregard for the safety, lives and security of the american people, all hanging on the balance of a mercurial man's personality. i think that, thank god, we're at a moment where we're less than 30 days away from having a president who has empathy and compassion and does actually care about doing the job. i can't imagine somebody not doing the job and then leaving early for vacation and playing golf while millions of americans are suffering. it's particularly an ugly end to an ugly chapter in american history, frankly. >> good word, galling. got to say. kurt, why do you think the president waited until after the bill was passed, again, after months of work, to throw a

wrench in this? he wasn't involved in the negotiations, but the $600 check wasn't surprise. if it was a deal breaker could have called mitch mcconnell and said so. wouldn't he paying attention? >> well, i think that this is another temper tantrum from the president of the united states, not happy about the way the election went. trying to undermine democracy every waking moment and take votes away from the american people. instead of accepting reality and trolling in conspiracy theories he's trying to blow up the bede because he wants attention on him, upset joe biden will be the next president of the united states. his way of lashing out. using livelihoods of millions of americans to try to have this temper tantrum. the fact he's at a golf course now in florida and not in the white house, not at the negotiating table, not taking an active role in this other than just tweeting tells you he

doesn't care about anybody right now, anybody out of work, needing support. i hope republicans are paying attention. marco rubio, ted cruz, lindsey graham and all the people who have turned a blind eye to reality the last four years, i hope they see thurusting donald trump, selling your soul to donald trump gets you in the same place every time he will eventually turn on you and it will all be for nothing and you'll be left with nothing left but a tattered reputation. >> hmm. you have the president in essence creating a catfight with the gop. in both the house and senate. why? how does he benefit from holding up covid relief and potentially shutting down the government even this next week? or is he just trying to create more chaos on his way out of the door echoes what kurt was just saying? >> i really don't think we can look much deeper than kurtal an -- kurt's analysis, a temper tan

rum, zerlina's description a mercurial a president. any strategy, perhaps weaken the re-election bids as senator kelly loeffler and senator david perdue in georgia, in the run-up to that special election january 5th, they needed to have this stimulus bill passed, because they needed to deliver to their constituents. this was a campaign trail promise and pledge they have been going around touting. now just throwing a wrench into it. donald trump who do they stick with? stick with donald trump? who just looks chaotic and unhinged? or do they defy the president at a time they still need his most loyal supporters? it's really, the georgia election is the only strategy, perhaps, but there really probably is none. >> that's january 5th. but comes as january 6th a approaching and pd the hill headline. trying to avoid a messy trump

fight over electoral college writing senator lead mitch mcconnell will reach out to avoid a messy floor fight next month. finalizing results of the elech choral college vote. president trump met with republican congressional allies at the white house monday. they were discussing the possibility of challenging the vote. what do you make of it? >> alex, maybe some of us in this world are lucky enough to have friends that will sit around and coddle and comfort us when we are being completely delusional and unhinged and downright playing in fantasy fairy land. those are the kind of friends willing to play that game with donald trump right now. if they want to go play their version of political candyland they can do that and they can continue to coddle and help encourage donald trump's delusion, but it really is, frankly, so unhealthy for american democracy right now.

and just disrespectful to everything that this republic is supposed to stand for. >> this is interesting, kurt. from axios, who's reporting that trump is turning against vp mike pence for not fighting hard enough for him writing pence's role on january 6th has begun to loom large in trump's mind according to people who discussed the matter with him. trump views pence performing his constitutional duty and validating election results as the ultimate betrayal. look, i mean, you know the presidential also reportedly brought up that lincoln project ad, claims that pence is backing away from him. that's really gotting inside his head. as an adviser to the lincoln project, kurt, your reaction and what do you make of pence's role in all this? does he even have a choice but to validate election results? >> well, i guess mike pence could decide not to show up on january 6th. and senate pro tem grassley pro

voo presides. anyone after the election questioning what role, effect, the lincoln project had it's getting inside donald trump's head. never shy talking about that. not hard. s somewhat terrifying to get inside the leader of the free world's head like this and highlight things. the fact he didn't even realize it was the vice president who presides over this proceeding, you know, tells you just how disengaged he actually is and how little he knows about how government actually functions. but, again, you know, it's for the lincoln project, at least, you know, our work is just getting started. what we've seen over the last few weeks since election days tell us the republican party is not going to do the right thing. not an awakening amp the election accepting joe biden, working with him. they're continue to undermine democracy and try to replace with a dictatorial regime and we won't stand by and led it idly happen. we will hold these people

accountable. >> and there are new fund-raising efforts and the numbers show a massive haul for rafael warnock and jon ossoff. raised $2 million in the past two months. will gop in-fighting help democrats? >> i don't know if fighting on the gop side will help democrats but i know seems like it will be unlike any other runoff in georgia's history, and that is because you have essentially national attention on one -- well two senate runoff ares in the state of georgia. normally go for republicans, because they're better able to coalesce their base in a short amount of time. i'm looking at democrats fund-raising and using that to organize and turn out mail -in ballots and black and brown voters growing in numbers, alex.

turn out a coalition of people of color from all parts of georgia not just in major cities can you have success. joe biden showed it in his race. only 14,000 vote margin that he won by and so demonstrates that osoff and warnock can do it if they crank that engine of turnout. that's what they're doing. i think they're running a very smart race. running very much hand-in-hand. hand-in-glove, error, and shows democrats understand the coalition of the future is made up of people of color. >> thank you so much for joining me. good to see you. hope you have a good holiday week and a good new year coming up. and covid testing in new york. behind a surge there next.

now to the latest facts on the coronavirus pandemic. in are 18.8 million confirmed cases here in the u.s. more than

330,000 americans have died. in some states hospitals are returning out of room. despite warnings from the cdc, more than 1.2 million passed through the airports according to the tsa. most since the pandemic began. amp aaa expects 85 million people to travel during the holidays. a boston doctor had a reaction to the moderna vaccine. first reported reaction to the moderna shot. more than 32,000 people in massachusetts given the vaccine's first dose according to that state's data. and california, stay-at-home order in effect across effort is parts of the states and likely remaining in place beyond the minimum three-week duration. icu capacity at 0% in the san joaquin valley and here in southern california remaining at or below the 15% requirement in the bay area and greater sacramento for opening back up.

we have reporters bringing us the latest from new york. start cory on covid testing outside of nyc health and hospitals, bellevue location there in new york city. talk about the testing centers. i know i've seen suuch long lin los angeles and new york before leaven. how's everyone keeping up with high demand? >> reporter: yeah. there's a notion that people could go see their loved ones if they guest tested. doctors explain why that's a little of a misnomer, but here in new york, they are really try to to keep up with extra demand by staffing. takes time. turnaround suffering. tests used take 24 to 48 hours now three to five days in some locations. you can see the numbers start to increase as testing here in new york increases. for example, yesterday december 25th, christmas day, 13,000 positive cases higher than the highest seen last spring, alex.

>> okay. let me ask about the cold. it's colder outside there in the east. it what kind of techniques have the hospitals and clinics rolled out to try to cut down on everyone waiting outside to get a test? >> reporter: yeah. the lines as long as four hours in some locations including the bellevue location behind us. insane. some of the things penal are doing. numb people are doing. creative. taking to twitter reporting on lines in different areas. people, not the actual facilities. the facilities have an interesting system. check in, in-person, go fwhwait your car until ready for you. keep warm a bit. other hospitals, a dmv system. look online and see, okay. where's the line at this location versus this one and decide where to go based on that and of course, make appointments. for example, here, able to tackle this line, because of instituting these new programs. >> yeah. all right. cori, thank you so much for that update on the covid testing.

new yorkers are getsing tested but businesses are relying on shop toers keep them afloat. with me, lindsey reiser at bank of america winter village at bryant park. welcome. i know that park well. usually it attracts like a million visitors each holiday season, but they've scaled back. implementing new safety measures. how's it going there? >> reporter: right, you are, alex. like every else, pared down the village at bryant park because of the pandemic. still familiar iconic items, though, here. the ice rink behind me. of course, empty. zamboni out resurfacing the ice. normally the ice rink sees 500. paring it down to 200 and you need a reservation. i hear a hard to come by now. also over here, we have three christmas trees. normally would have one big 40-foot tree. here we have three smaller ones to reduce crowd size and sorcia

distancing. local vendors here but fewer of them. from 175 booths to now 60 booths. still local business owners tell me all of the other events they would normally sell their stuff at have been canceled this year. they're at least grateful for this. let's listen. >> i've been really touched by the number of repeat customers i've had come through. it's been, like -- really nice. >> if i'm lucky, i will break even, and i have my health and i'm grateful for that. >> reporter: two perspectives for thru. rinks open through january 3rd. >> still shopping to be done. thank you. michelle goldberg of the "new york times" calls them president trump many most disgusting pardons. more beyond outrage can anyone do about it? speaking with congressman ted lu, next. ith congressman ted lu, next.

it's time for theraflu hot liquid medicine. powerful relief so you can restore and recover. theraflu hot beats cold.

breaking news. law make ersz on capitol hill waiting to see what the president will do with this $900 bill coronavirus relief bill as two pandemic unemployment program it's expire today. please, help us. the message to the president and congress from millions of american whose are now just hours away heading over a financial cliff. joining me now, california congressman ted lu, democratic member of the house judiciary and foreign affairs committee. good to see you. as millions of americans brace for a loss of benefits, how do you see this playing out? what is a realistic timeline now? this bill is sitting on the president's desk. >> thank you, alex, for your question. i just read a story about nicole craig, an unemployed mother of two children in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. food stamps she used to buy food is running out and she now doesn't know how to make her ends meet. she spent the last $7 in her

bank account to buy tinsel for her christmas tree because she didn't want her baby to miss his first christmas. millions of americans are suffering and donald trump is golfing at his private, elite club. this is really a chaos presidency. i hope donald trump signs the covid relief bill and then can sign the additional legislation to get the stimulus checks to $2,000 that the house will pass this week. >> so that's how it could get done in your mind? because the president is actually getting some good marks, if you will, because he wants this bill amended with $2,000 checks. the house gop blocking that effort, which democrats agreed to, certainly democrats will try again monday to get approval for more money for americans, but do you have predictions? will your republican colleagues try to block this effort again? >> so on thursday the republicans blocked it, because the only procedure we could use during what's known as a pro

forma week was nam mon sent. meaning minority leader kevin mccarthy could block it and he did. however, this monday the house is going to do a full vote, and if we get majority vote for $2,000, which we will, we'll pass the bill and send it to the senate. republicans will mostly vote against it but still we'll be able to pass it through the senate. >> here's something interesting. when making his request for the bigger stimulus checks, the president criticized the relief effort. take a listen. >> it's called the covid relief bill, but it has almost nothing to do with covid. this bill contains 85.5 million dollars for assistance to cambodia. $134 million to burma. $1.3 billion for egypt. $40 million for the kennedy center in washington, d.c., which is not even open for business. despite all of this wasteful

spending and much more, the $900 billion package provides hard-working taxpayers with only $600 each in relief payments. >> so a couple weeks to look at this. what do you make of the president's criticism? weren't some of those items ticking off one by one actually from his own budget proposal? do you think he doesn't realize this? but was he making a point that, getting relief to americans, that alone could have been something that would have been addressed by this bill? >> you make a great point, at lex. i don't know why donald trump was complaining about himself, because those requests came from his own budget, and there are two things going on pap covid relief package and then annual spending bill that funds government and makes sure we don't shut down and included in there is foreign aid, which his administration requested, both democratic and republican administrations supported for decades, because, guess what?

foreign aid keeps us from getting into potential conflicts. james mattis, former secretary of defense said we don't fully fund the state department he's got to buy more bullets. foreign aid and a covid relief package. donald trump is confused. >> hmm. so going back to the question of that the president raised whether the covid relief bill is doing enough tore americans. shared views. tulsi gabbard saying the bill leaves crumbs for those who need help most. alexandra ocasio ortiz, didn-co enough time to read the bill. >> what happened, white house kept saying no, not additional amounts for the stimulus. offered $500. we were able to get it up to

$600 but hid the fact donald trump wanted $2,000. something going on in the white house hiding this information from congress. >> so you're saying that the white house was telling you something that did not reflect what the president wanted? or is it possible the white house was negotiating without consulting the president, and then just bringing him in at the end? do we know how that's been typical handled over the last four years? >> a great point. certainly possible secretary mnuchin we negotiated with was making stuff up. his views rather than the president's. we'll never know. at this point donald trump just doesn't care. he's playing golf at his private club. if he doesn't sign this bill today, the $300 in enhanced unemployment benefits will not go into effect fon ar additional week. one week absolutely gone if he doesn't sign the bill today in regards to unemployment

benefits. >> and president's pardons included roger stone, paul manafort, others kautd caught up in the russia probe as well as others. what do you make of these pardons, congressman? >> as a former prosecutor these pardons are utterly disgraceful. these are folks that committed serious felonies. paul manafort convicted of a number of felonies including bank fraud, tax fraud, obstruction of justice. no ordinary american could have gotten these panden e pardons a only got them because they were friends of pnt. paul manafort, state charges could be filed against him and the president cannot pardon him for those charges. i expect paul manafort cot still see prison time. >> friends, cleeks, colleague,l

family inside. pardoning four blackwater security guards. wounding of 17 people, killing of children. what message does that send to iraq? >> sadness. also shame. these folks fired indiscriminately and killed children as young as 9 years old. there was really no reason for them to do that, and they were convicted of these war crimes. these are murderers of civilians. for donald trump to pardon them really is a sad day for america. i taught the law of armed conflict when serving in active duty in the u.s. military. it's clear those folks, had they been military, they would have been court-martialed as well. we really experienced a sad and tragic day when donald trump decided to pardon them for their trial crimes. >> sorry to leave it on that note but i must for this time.

thank you very much, california congressman, good to see you. appreciate it. >> you, too. from countdown to meltdown. 25 days to go for president trump. the trouble in him overturning the election. that's next. at's next.

developing nous, unpredictable, turning bitterly on every person around him. complete meltdown. how multiple different reports are characterizing president trump in his short time left in the oval office. joining me now, omarosa newman,

former senior adviser to president trump and author of the number one "new york times" best-seller "unhinged: insider account of being inside the trump white house." according to an axios report, vice president pence, chief meadows, other figures becoming targets of the president's outrage as trump is lashing out and everyone is in the blast zone. w you've brn in the white houeen with this president. what can that look like? >> i really feel bad for those left. the reality, continue toal going to turn to anyone and turn to everyone with blame. the only ones left, pence and mark meadows. certainly vice president pence is on the receiving end of donald trump's wrath and irrerrc and at many times makes absolutely no sense. >> what does it look like? does he just yell and berate

people? does he send emails? does he send texts? i mean, how does he go after somebody, and does he do it publicly? bring somebody in the office, shut the down yell or in front of the whole staff? >> if he calls you into the oval

>> and the episode. ego will not hold on, allow him to accept he is not going to be president. that really was what his attempt was by presenting this very well-produced piece of video to make his case. but this is not the "aprend pree "apprentice." it's not a tv show, which donald trump is reverting to. >> hmm. the president's calling on supporters to rally in d.c. on

that day congress is set to certify election results january 6th. what do you suspect he's going to do that day? is he going to call for more rallies? what about january 20th? i mean, that's the day joe biden gets sworn in. do you think he announce as 2024 run for president that same day or even shows up at joe biden's inauguration? >> michael cohen and i have been debating. michael think he's not coming back from florida. i think donald trump will seize the moment to make it all about himself. yes, he's going to find a stage. it's not shared with biden, but a stage where he will try to dominate the headlines. he's obsessed with the coverage he gets and so he will use this moment to announce his presidency. he will use this moment, maybe to even pardon himself, people suspect he will do, but donald trump will make it the "continue to trump so" instead of allowing president-elect joe biden to really savor in the moment. >> you and michael can be right.

you talk about him perhaps on a different platform. michael's told me he doesn't believe the president will come back to the inauguration but doesn't want all cameras trained on him as the loser of this election. something he cannot abide. omarosa good to see you. continued success on the book and happy new year, too. today is the expiration date for covid unemployment benefits for millions of americans. what recourse is there if president trump decides to veto the covid relief bill? detergent. tide pods plus downy free. safe for sensitive skin with eczema and psoriasis. dcoughing's not new.. this woman coughs... and that guy does, too. people cough in the country, at sea, and downtown. but don't worry, julie... robitussin shuts coughs down.
