and he said it was even worse and william henry harrison and i said wow, this is a discussion nobody else in america is having at this moment in time. >> but the great thing with william henry harrison was at the beginning of popular votes so they were thinking about ways to sell things and accidentally stumbled on the idea of paddling william henry harrison as this humble soldier who was living in a lawn cabin drinking is hard cider remembering how he fought and his father signed the declaration of independence, he was appointed and went to medical school but they created this thing, this guy and they would have all these lawn cabin parades and they got to drink a lot because of the hard cider connection so there were a lot of riots and drinking going on and they trained martin van buren whose father was a humble bartender in upstate new york as this rich guy who ran around wearing women's clothing and he has the shrubbery in the front of the white house reshaped they look like the bosoms of amazons. this stuff is really going on so truly, that was a weirder election but that's proba

brinkley, this is the worst first 100 days of any president in history, with the exception of william harrison with pneumon pneumonia, he's better than that. but the reality is, it's the first 100 days and the president must understand that you're not going to win by tweet, by lies, by hateful information, you're not going to be able to get a bill. because the country wants tax reform. . >> he has -- he killed tpp, he's building these pipelines, between keystone and the dakotas access line. the average pay for these permanent jobs is over $100,000 a year. obama created jobs, but they weren't high paying jobs. >> the epa he has proposed slashing thousands of positions. >> it also slashes funds for job training programs, for education across the board. let's understand, the problem with the president's budget it shows his administration versus his rhetoric, the dangers of this white house is the overpromising that he makes. >> i hope he accomplishes a lot, because what's good for america is to accomplish a number of things, especially jobs as you point out. harlan hill, robert zimmerman, health

everywhere included, okay clubs for the election of martin, reelection as president, he lost to william henry harrison whose slogan was log cabin and cider and sometimes the electorate liked log cab inand -- cabin and cider better. the new words are specially interesting. american dialect society starting in 1990 every year has been choosing a word of the year and i thought we might do a little bit, i will explain how we do it. the american dialect society is a small group of people who study american english but we meet together with the linguistic society of america which is a much group of people that are professional linguists and every january we meet, we look back on the previous year and we ask which word or words -- which word was the most important defining word of the previous year. kind of like time magazine has a person of the year. we have words of the year so we accept nominations throughout the year and some of you have been writing nominations on the paper that have been handed out and you will have your opportunity to do more and then what we do is first of all, we have a nominating s

>> cnn sent me a note about william henry harrison.t pneumonia because he refused to have a coat. that was pretty bad start. but if you look at presidents who have gone through the first 100 days, lot have stumbled. no question about that. >> clinton had a tumultuous. >> don't ask, don't tell. slipped in when wasn't ready for that. caused uproar. other problems. all presidents make mistakes. one of the paradoxes is you have to make some of the most important decisions when you're least ready and settled into the job. but as he's done in so many other ways, donald trump breaks all boundaries. had a terrible week. credibility badly damaged in the beginning of the week on the wiretapping business. clouds come back over the russian connections as mark just said, now his capacity as president, deal making capacity called into question. i think those are very tough blows for him. make one last point. what has been happening here now is beginning to make it harder to get his next things done. jack talked about the rally of the markets. notabl

>> yeah, so far the only president who had a worse 100 first days would be william henry harrison who didn't last past 30 days. this is what is so dangerous for the republican governing majority at this point. you had this disaster on friday. the president made it really clear he didn't care that much, he wasn't engaged, he wasn't passionate, he never bothered to learn the details of the bill. now by outsourcing the attacks and allowing the long knives to come out, i think he puts his entire agenda at risk unless somehow in some alternative universe chuck schumer is going to come forward and say let's work together, let's pass this huge infrastructure bill which will further tear apart the republican majority, will further tear apart conservative support. so i'm not sure that you're seeing as much of a strategy as you're seeing t president's lack of impulse control, lash out at people who didn't bow the knee. >> first of all, i salute charlie for bringing in william henry harrison. that's so good to have somebody with a historical sense. i think the attack on priebus is a kind of dodg

. >> you forgot william henry harrison. >> again, that sounds like a jeffrey lord. >> exactly.eneral who refused to dress properly on a cold, bitter day and rode his horse down pennsylvania avenue, came down with pneumonia and died. he had 97 days, a very quiet 100 days. but it's lard to think of any president in modern times, we had a lot of presidents who stumbled in the first 100 days. bill clinton had some stumbles. he slipped on banana peels. jack kennedy had his bay of pigs, but we've never had this kind of major legislative catastrophe on top of all the kind of investigations that are under way, and the attacks on his credibility, which i think are eroding trust and belief in him. and so he's come out of this very battered, i think, as president. he's not the same, i doesn't command the height the way he did when he came in. that's not to say he can't recover. it's to say he's had a terrible 100 days. >> in terms of recovering from something like that, is it a shake-up of staff? >> they need a david gergen. [ laughter ] >> then they'll have the worst 1,000 days. listen,

. >> william henry harrison died so you know -- >> yes. >> in his first 100 days. >> so it's not clear which one was worse. but the fact is, you just kind of look at it in the modern era, president trump has an approval rating of 15 points, 16 points lower than any president has been at this point. >> 37% right now. >> his disapproval rating is significantly higher than any president ever. right now republicans are still sticking with him in the sense of you know, not directly criticizing him because he has very high approval ratings among republicans. unless they can begin to turn that around, it's not that long before some of those members begin to kind of wonder whether sticking close to him is the best policy. his approval rating in particular. i want to point out one thing, among college-educated white voters. his approval rating among those voters is down about as low as president obama's was, in 2010 among blue collar white voters, before democrats got annihilated in that election, in those lower middle income districts if you're a republican in a white color suburb and you are

before he had been nominated for president, and lincoln supported william henry harrison who he thought was more electable, a general, and lincoln supported clay in 1844 when he was the whig chairman and clay narrowly lost. and then lincoln betrayed him again. lincoln needs clay in lexington after he is elected to the congress. it is an unexpected meeting in which lincoln hears him speak on the platform with his father-in-law presiding. he has dinner with him. he is shocked to discover he is not drawn to this charismatic personality. he finds him cruel and condescending towards him. this just elected congressman from central illinois. >> the one speech he keeps quoting from in the 1850's is an old speech of clay that he gave to the colonization society. it must've been an early meeting of this group. what struck me about this paragraph is how lincolnian it is. i don't think clay's operations were very well. apparently, he was brilliant to hear, but a lot of it was the performance, the voice. this paragraph -- clay is addressing critics of the colonization society to think it -- who thin

go back through history, what about william henry harrison.wful std he was so proud he wouldn't wear his coat on inaugural day, on a cold day, caught pneumonia and died. but i think if you look at the presidency in terms of setbacks and positive things, the president has had wins and had that good win on gorsuch. but the losses are massive. and not only this -- last week, his credibility got shattered on wiretapping. tha they've got this investigation underway with a criminal investigation jrnd wunderway reg some of his aides. we don't know where that's going to go. he lost out on this major legislative hope for the first hundred days, for the first few months of his time in office. you can go down that list. and i would have to say, i think, so far, what we're watching is the worst hundred days, certainly, in modern times. but i think you can make the argument, ben, even about lincoln. >> all right. well, it's not over yet. we're about 65 days in. david gergen and lanhee chen, thank you. >>> president trump defends his wildest and baseless cl

william henry harrison died in his first 100 days.vice president aaron burr had a dual with alexander hamilton shot and killed him and plotted plot against the united states. that's a bad first term as well. abraham lincoln the south succeeded in his first 100 days. second 100 days he was shot. jfk had a does trust bay of pigs incident. bill clinton's 1993 transition which by all accounts was a failure. pete: sure. and of course they were writing the obituary of former president ronald reagan as well before he got tax reform passed he was a failure. you mentioned bill clinton and this was what was written to put on the screen and "the washington post had written about bill clinton. they said the first 100 days of bill clinton's presidency have diminished's examines that he or anyone this else in washington can turn around a country that seven out of 10 voters was going in the wrong direction that was "the washington post in 1993. if they are saying that about bill clinton then, why the hysteria now? >> yeah. i mean, there is a lot of
