longest acceptance speech at an hour and 15 minutes, it was also full of reference to law and order. what were your talk aways.s. >> well, i was really struck by how much it was departure for presidential acceptance speech by republicans going back to reagan it really was a throw back to president nicks son when he rant, essentially had focused presidents that had unified conventions with a very optimistic message toward the center and the trump's play book were you a little bit different, a darker scenario i think that was pretty consistent in the reactionss not just from the media, but for many republicans that weren't part of the trump coalition that was quite strike l. >> made reference to lgbq. >> there were a
5:33 pm
over things that on the progressive side like lgbt issues as well as his daughter speech toward women. there are other cross overs c which are not particularly seen as optimistic progressive new democrats back lash against, clinton was the globalization president as republicans beforei him and sense. trump walked away from somethint that democratic party tried to embrace over the last 25 years. >> you did talk about trump being and o the darker side. president obama apparently wasn't a fan of the speech for s that reason rejecting the talk violence, he talked about that today. let's play a sound bite from today didn't i'll have youn't respond on the other side of that. do we have that sound bite? >> the one thing that i think is important to

more optimistic america. one of them referred to it as a, 17th century british philosophep who saw the word as nasty short. that donald trump's vision of america. that has not been the optimistic view of what america is that ronald reagan, both george bushs portrayed during their presidencies. neither did romney or mccain. i think hillary clinton, how he talked about more optimistic m vision thator appeals to, in particular, working class white americans and white americannd men. if they adopt the trump view ofp the world as a dark scary place, then she may have a hard timerd pulling them over to her side. >> did it surprise you that shet haven't come out with her vp pick yet.
