nebraska and oklahoma. we built the stockist economy the world has ever seen before -- strongest economy the world has ever seen before the virus. now we are doing it again. maybe we will start off with governor ricketts, then we will get to my friend over here. i will be seeing you so much in the next couple days i will take you second. cketts: wets -- ri appreciate your leadership to help us through this pandemic and give us the tools to manage it. the ppp program has been successful in nebraska because of the great relationships our community bankers have with our small businesses. we were able to cover 80% of our payroll. it was a fantastic way to keep people working. we had the third lowest unemployment rate in april. we appreciate the work you are doing. we were one of the few states that did not issue a stay-at-home order. we tried to take common steps and ask people to take responsibility to follow the directives you were putting out to avoiding large groups, washing your hands, and making sure they

not just wheat farming in nebraska but all kinds of farming.k me to my first Ãbi know you were talking to Ãb earlier about to confirm she took me to my first layer firms, dairy farms, etc. in pennsylvania so i could start to get the whole picture of agriculture. then what happened was really in 2015 we were all, he was very nervous before the election, he remembered so many of his thoughts there was no way donald trump would win, eric had a lot of concerns he said i think it's possible he will win. and then trump did win and then eric thought, one of the reasons this happened is because we have this gap in understanding the way our country works so that's when it was sort of the decision or invitation was put forward that i go along with harvest to start to develop an even more whole picture of what this urban and rural divide was. >> that is kind of the background to the book. as far as how difficult it was, it was only difficult in the sense that i didn't always understand what was happening, what i was seeing and what i was hearing but there

there is no nebraska politician that is more different than jennings bryan. >> guest: there's a whole bunch of stuff we could say about it being different. >> host: with specific to history. your optimism about what comes next is partly driven by a pretty charitable anthropology that americans are going to learn what happened into going to the concluding chapters of the book where you have the rules because there's a whole bunch of really meaty stuff that they should go to but i think that one of the criticisms of the book that i suspect is that it hits the bestseller list next week ende and the week after thu will hear people say is wait a minute, contempt as a habit for people that have ideas that are policy ideas, that's pretty stupid but what if the idea is that you are critiquing horror from people that are contemptible, is there a moral relativism complicit in the argument iargument and aren't yg that we shouldn't regard anybody else as really terrible ideas? >> guest: it is a criticism but i'm going to hear a lot and i have heard and i've wrestled with this because i have treat

there are really no immigrants in fremont nebraska. but in 2010, and again in 2014, the people of fremont nebraska voted in a referendum for the toughest admissibleordinance against illegal immigrants in the united states . barred employers from hiring illegal immigrants which is already in federal law, i don't know why they thought they had to do that again but they had an additional provisions barring landlords from taking illegal immigrants as penance. there are barely any immigrants, period but still this sense of threat from a an abstraction was very real. so times like to maybe better connect that to your question, maybe the thought is in right now i'm coming to think about how a lot of the vote in the 2016 election for president from was in a lot of the counties where there were not a lot of color and not a lot of immigrants so it's kind of like an argument , a political argument about how the immigrants were bad for us play best with a particularly powerfully in places that did not really experience immigrants in a day-to-day l

nebraska republican governor said if you order people to wear masks, then we the state will not give coronavirus money, which is nuts. as arizona faces what is arguably the worst outbreak in the entire country right now, yesterday that state's republican governor finally relented from pressure from localities to say yes to those localities. you can order people to wear masks. right now the eyes of the nation are on arizona because no one knows how bad it is going to get there or what it will mean for the trajectory of post lockdown coronavirus growth in the u.s. for some insights on that, i want to turn to someone who understands arizona's landscape. now the executive director of the arizona public health association. let's start first with the governor's decision -- good to have you. let's start with the governor's decision to say we have seen this play out in nebraska, in texas, in arizona. you have got local mayors saying we want to issue a local order. you have seen governors resisting it. doug seemed to reverse himself a little bit and say to localities, yes, you can order a mas

in lincoln, nebraska, police and protesters even had an impromptu dance party. ♪ ♪ was that a protesttom selleck's wedding reception? are we sure those were real cops and not strippers? i've been fooled before. that was the scene in lincoln. in washington, where law enforcement has taken a much more forceful approach, including tear-gassing peaceful protestors -- things are not as amicable. authorities there are busy erecting another fence around the existing white house fence. two fences. wasn't that a spin doctors song? so it looks like trump is finally getting his wall built after all. how long before we find out don junior invested in a fence company? yesterday, trump's former secretary of defense, four star general james "mad dog" mattis, gave the president a one star yelp review. he lambasted his former boss, saying, "we are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership." and that trump is a threat to the constitution. of the united states. the president, of course, fired back right away. tweeting, "probably the only thing barack obama and i have in common

but in nebraska, the governo threatening local officials with withholding coronavirus relief funds ify mandate them in are you concerned that this is going to be a dangerous precedent? >> yes. this is a major problem because public health hinges on public trust. if there are attempts to try to politicize something tt is ah public hea mandate and people of certain ideologies or paisan leanings are not going to do something just because it came from public health officials, then that makes me very concerned about where we are headed in terms of this entire response. frankly, masks can ptect you more than five times from not wearing a mask. imagine if there is a medication you can take now that gives you th type of protection. we should really all be wearing masks andng u other precautions, including physical distancing. nada: there is obviously so much we still don't know abos. the coronavi but there is latest research out saying that antibodies may only useful for around two to three months. i wond ife are talking about a potential second wave, what does that say about the severity of
