and what i decided to do in my memoir and here we are american dreams, american night fairs is to just reflect on the journey that has a new american such as myself who is able to be a mouthpiece to a whole country in some way about some thing, unpack a story about what it took for my family to make america home. it wasn't a given, it's something that we fought very hard for and along the way like any fight when you're fighting hard and you have questions, you have regrets, you wonder frankly was it worth it and so i'm exploring that in the memoir and we know each other from new york city, we are both from queens, i grew up a couple stops over on the 7 train and groans and to me what it's hilarious and instructive about where we grew up is that immigrants have the incredible stamina and bravery and drive across the atlantic and the pacific and sonoran desert, and so -- [laughter] >> that's actually why we are in queens, it's because we got tired, that's why queens is such a phenomenal window into the dna of america, we grow up in the place that explains why america is great, if you und

night? >> i maybe he can, but americans are smart and fair-minded, and they see what's happening here.e democrats and some of their friends in the mainstream media trying to unto an election result from three years ago and trying to, yes, i'll use the word, interfere in the next election. they're so worried about foreign governments interfering in our election, why do we have people, democrats and some of the media in our own country interfering in the 2020 election by just trying to get in the president's way? but he doesn't let the resistance stop him. look what he just did this week. he got a first phase of the deal with china. maria: right. >> he did an amazing executive order on transparency. he's continuing to deregulate. he's trying to continue to bolster our economy. we had great economic numbers last week even though the critics said otherwise. two months ago they were predicting recession, maria, so he will continue. he's ready to sign usmca, he's ready to do infrastructure, he's got 160 federal judges and counting on his watch. no one stops him. the last couple days he got h
