pierre: it is very good question.ss so difficult to make a forecast. there are two things i will share with you. the first one is the governments do things too heavily against public opinion and you have never seen china putting that on. that has always been well protected in china. similarly when it comes to looking at what the u.s. government and especially the next administration and what they're going to do, that concern will be very present as well. it is a fun thing that in the transition. we are going to do it but we know very well we have had president trump as a president already and one thing we have learned about him is that he has a very pragmatic approach to problems and he is very concerned about the competitiveness of american countries. i would find it hard to see him do something that would cause harm. jonathan: are your saying your underlying assumption for the next is that the incoming administration won't do anything that hurts the national champions, the tech firms? pierre: that will be the direct

what will karine jean-pierre say about this morning's meeting?icy to avoid homes with trump signs? we will tackle that. and can the "doge" really turned federal fat? i'm john roberts. come join sandra and me at the top of the hour for "america reports." we'll see you then. >> kayleigh: so this is interesting, as we approach the 1:00 p.m. hour. we can tell you that president-elect trump is there at the white house still meeting with president joe biden. now, look at the time. we are almost at 1:00 p.m. we know he walked in there at about 11:14 a.m., so we can officially say right now that this meeting is longer than the meeting that he had with president obama. that meeting lasted 90 minutes. we are approaching an hour and 45 minutes. we know this as president biden said, it was backgrounded, that he wanted to bring up the ukraine war. i'm sure that the subject of discussion. a bit ironic, though, because the ukraine war started on his watch. so i wonder what he's telling president trump at this moment on this matter. we will keep you updated as w

let's get right to our chief justice correspondent pierre thomas. what have you learned?reporter: just days ago, then-candidate donald trump threatened to fire special counsel jack smith within two seconds if he was re-elected, but he won't need to. doj guidelines are clear. you cannot prosecute a sitting president, and sources tell me smith has been in discussions about how he will wind down the two federal cases. the january 6th criminal case and the classified documents case are effectively over. and some legal experts doubt that the judge overseeing trump's 34 felony count conviction in the hush money case involving stormy daniels would impose any jail time when trump is sentenced on november 26th, david. >> david: pierre thomas live in washington as well, pierre, thank you. >>> this election a resounding victory for president-elect trump, improving his numbers across rural america, gaining ground with latino voters, suburban voters, young voters and peeling away some support for democrats in the big cities. let's get right to the big board with rick klein. take us th

i appreciated aydin's words this morning and karine jean-pierre's. didn't so much appreciate the vice president yesterday she will use the word fighting and there was a dig in there. the way they've handled it so -- >> martha: i don't know if this is the answer we would've ever gotten from her in that moment but, you know, the american people obviously did not align with the idea that they feared fascism and that's american people of all colours and backgrounds and genders too broad of a very broad electoral victory from former president trump so it's very interesting. another moment we missed that i want to play because it has to do with a question that's come up it's a specific issue around hunter biden. in the past present biden said he would not pardon his son. after harris lost there is a lot of specular that indeed that was going to be forthcoming. that he was about to be sentenced in several weeks here was the answer to the pardoning question let's watch. >> his son hunter is also a fitting sentence next month does the president have any inten
