ann gearan, do you anticipate elizabeth warren will run in 2020?she'll absolutely be a favorite to be drafted if she doesn't throw her own hat in the ring. she really stayed on the sidelines at the beginning, really, in part, in large measure and deference to hillary clinton. some of the rap on her was that she didn't have a broad base of experience. a number of years to develop that and certainly the economic power/message behind her and the populist message that's probably going to carry her a long way. >> ann lewis, what is your crystal ball telling you? >> i cracked my crystal ball on tuesday night. >> guess we all did. broken beyond repair. i would say, finding somebody who, four years ago said, i can tell you the candidates who will be in 2016. with the election in 2016, you find me that sage and that prophet and i might listen to them about 2020 but for now, i'm not even going to try. >> that's a great point. we will leave it on that point. thanks to both of you for a fantastic conversation on this friday morning. >>> president elect trump i

we talked to anne gearan of the "the washington post," devlin barrett of the "wall street journal" and molly ball of "the atlantic." >> the clinton campaign strategy is to muddy the waters and make it look as a partisan attack so people who are galvanized are galvanized to support her more rather than having doubts about her. but the amazing thing about this story is how little anybody knows. >> rose: including the f.b.i. the trump campaign certainly doesn't know what's on that laptop, the clinton campaign doesn't know what's on the laptop. >> the f.b.i. or the white house doesn't know what's on the laptop. even huma abedin says she doesn't know. >> rose: we continue with jon meacham, the biographer of george h.w. bush. >> the 20th century ended early. clinton understood the new world we were living in, cable tv, the intersection of celebrity and politics. as i said before, bill clinton went on arsenio hall. bush thought it was a building. >> rose: and we conclude with tommy hilfiger, an american designer. >> i never wanted the business to slow, stall or get steal, so i continually thi
