barack obama sitting next to president trump.fice it to say something, you just don't see it is not a common occurrence. >> that is so much history. barack obama, a campaigning for the vice president, kamala harris. obviously she did not prevail. and now sitting next to donald trump, exchanging a smile, former president george w bush, former first lady laura bush. shaking the hands. and this, as jimmy carter probably would have liked, is somewhat cathartic for a country that the vast majority of people truly hunger for some sort of, you know, connection and way forward to try to erase some of these dividing lines. the bushes, barack obama, donald and melania trump. here we see former president bill clinton, former first lady hillary clinton, former secretary of state, obviously. his voice on the left in that back row, dan quayle shaking the hand of bill clinton a moment ago, al gore, who was obviously bill clinton's vice president. chapters of history, if you will, obviously, hillary clinton, having run against donald trump in 20

karen pence did shake the hand of barack obama and several of the other former presidents and first ladies. it wasn't, though, all icy reception for trump. what appeared to look like a moment of bromance going viral. trump and obama seen having a lighthearted chat. at one point, he even got a laugh out of the 44th president. >> i didn't realize it how friendly it looked. i saw it on your wonderful network just a little while ago before i came in, and i said, boy, they look like two people that like each other. and we probably do. we have little different philosophies, right? but we probably do. i don't know, we just got along, but i got along with just about everybody our my panel is back. >> donald trump seems to really have enjoyed watching the video of his interaction with barack obama. a pretty remarkable. >> yeah. look, we would be better served as a country if we got this version of donald trump more often. and i think generally the idea that people who are on two different sides of the aisle can talk to each other and be civil, particularly at something like a funeral, should not be

barack obama, michelle not there today.nt-elect trump and melania and in front of him we have the president and first lady, the bidens, and kamala harris and her husband, doug emhoff. bret baier, as we await for the procession to get underway additional thoughts from you. >> bret: first of all, being in that cathedral is quite something. the cathedral choir with "the road home" opening the ceremony. you talk about steve ford, he will read what gerald ford wrote for this moment and ted mondale will read what vice president walter mondale wrote for this moment that is very powerful. you will hear voices from president ford and vice president mondale through their family members. and obviously a big moment for president biden delivering this eulogy. you know, we talked about humility for president carter. as the casket was coming in they played hail to the chief. at the beginning of president he said i don't want to hear hail to the chief. i don't want the pomp and circumstance but then at the end relented but at the beginning

barack obama has done the same thing. instead of coming to the center, this guy has gone far left and he's won. so if anybody thinks that hillary clinton is going to be moderated by bill clinton and come to the center and be a moderate, you're absolutely wrong. she is going to go over and help govern with bernie sanders, a socialist, elizabeth warren. this will be the team that will have in place running our country. and if you look at the socialist policies that bernie advocates for that, elizabeth advocates for and now hillary advocates for these don't offer upward mobility. they don't offer prosperity. they bring you despair, whether it's cuba or venezuela or argentina or southern european countries, they never grow economies. they destroy economies. and they want to come to us with a message and say, i've got more free stuff for you. i'm going to offer you more. conservatives will never offer more free stuff than liberals. we'll never do that. but what we will do is offer more opportunity. we will offer more upward mo

there's former president barack obama.trump and pence, but that exchange and that handshake. who knows where it leads or what it means, but there was a handshake. we all remember what happened in january of 2021. this is january of 2025. >> bob, interesting to see al gore, former vice president, right next to mike pence, two vice presidents who found some common drive despite party difference, having both presided over the certification of elections they lost. mike pence recently being quoted as talking about a conversation with al gore where al gore said i really respect you, and pence saying i drew on your example. >> and this an extraordinary moment as the president-elect sitting next to barack obama. >> you think about in 2016 during the transition these two men barack obama, donald trump, two presidents had a bit of a chilly exchange. everyone was bewildered in the democratic party by trump's selection. there's former president george w. bush. >> who did not shake trump's hand. and the first lady, former first lady la

a barack obama! re is one thing wt have learned even if presidentdh of the united states, one thing i will give obama credit for i love when he said his daughters had no interest whatsoever whatr boys they should take to the umendance. even if you are the president of the united states, you lose arguments to your kids and wifeh whicumh think human eyes as thee guys. >> laura: clay, greatht to seego you. thank you so much. a catfightg to on the hill goino war with pete hegseth. jimmy failla has that and more coming up. ♪ ♪ israel needs you. we desperately need tens of thousands to respond. the war is here. the great storm from the north has come against israel. you've got the scriptures calling each one of us, not only to pray for the peace in jerusalem, but every city throughout israel that's under siege. this massive grocery store should be crowded. people are lacking food. exactly. the international fellowship of christians and jews is preparing meals for precious elderly citizens who can't get out.

barack obama had a coherent philosophy as a citizen. i happen to agree much more with fdr and barack obama. but i've studied reagan for decades and had a coherent worldview and he was a lot more than a mere actor. and he was he did a brilliant job throughout his presidency of developing that worldview and. i will also say that he he has demonstrated to be right about the soviets. so you're right that domestic that doesn't work won't resonate very and very in the long term. and i i'm i can think a recent example of that, that i'm not going discuss here today. so with inaugural speeches is the push and pull within the like the rhetoric. who speaks to the audience like what does he have stay in line like inspiring and showing a clear path to the future? i guess just asking, where is the push and pull with these speeches? the seven characters of an inaugural are like a recipe where. those seven ingredients are really required and if you're missing and in gradient i'm very fond of making the dessert cranberry lay and without eggs and and and

former president barack obama is confirmed. elle obama also just missed president jimmy carter's funeral which a lot of people are talking about that, too. this comes as president-elect donald trump announced tuesday he's going to create an external revenue office upon his return to the white house to collect all foreign source revenues such as tariffs, okay? he says for far too long we have relied on taxing our great people using the irs. through soft and pathetically weak trade agreements, the american economy has delivered growth and prosperity in the world while taxing ourselves. i think people at home are interested in hearing more about instead of ditching the irs how they are going to take tariffs from these other nations. back out here live the world economic forum is going to be going on davos. big tech names and finance guys won't be in davos. they will be here in palm beach like they have been trying to meet with trump and going to the inauguration. shows you a shift of world power there. back to you. >> brian: thanks

bush gave barack obama. check this out. >> live coverage of the state funeral of former president jimmy carter. >> there you go. what's up, chief? greeting him like a bro who finished a keg stand at the frat house. your turn, bro. >> oh, my, there were a lot of reactions. people were talking about, obviously, president obama and president trump talking beforehand. of course, we're the bill o'reilly lip readings, where are the body language readers when you need them? >> things might have happened, you know, before they came out. >> yeah, they were in a holding room beforehand. we'll find out three, four years from now. but the bush thing, how you doing? >> that was definitely, yeah, what it was. >> mika, very moving service yesterday. >> it was incredible. >> i must say, what an extraordinary -- >> eulogy. >> -- life. what an extraordinary faith. what an extraordinary man. >> and i feel the funeral, it was one of those events that was 100% authentic. everything that was said in there was 100% true. not exagg

george w boorstin yields to barack obama. pendulum swings back the other direction. barack obama, of course yields to donald trump. donald trump then yields to joe biden. joe biden yields back. donald trump pendulum back and forth. and this is a tough moment for us to know, navigate, but, you know, if you think about even president obama's journey which i think is interesting and important for us as, we wrap up, you know, in 2000, president was then just a state senator who had lost his first congressional race that year. bobby rush by about 24 points, lost his first congressional race, just like bill clinton lost first congressional race and. george w bush lost his first congressional race, knocked down on the ground. they get back up. barack obama tells the story. he couldn't even get into the democratic national convention. that was in los angeles. travels from chicago to the democratic national convention. can't get in. it's probably the chicago political machine and has to turn back around without setting foot in that convention. four years later, he delivers on

was it that barack obama was talking to trump or that dog was texting the nanny? talking to melania trump. she and barack use to be very close. he was ignoring her and talking to donald. everybody wants to talk to him. dana can attest to this, it is a small, exclusive fraternity and the fact that he won the popular vote means he is legitimized and welcomed into the d.c. establishment country club. there is a frosty relationship between dr. jill and vice president harris. it has not gotten better. it has been documented in "the wall street journal" has done extensive reporting on this. dr. joe mocked her when she's that i want the holidays to be filled with peace and joy. don't read too much into that because she knows, low's watchword is joy. it was nice of them to come together and honor the life of former president jimmy carter. >> a day or so ago he announced he had a great-grandchild at the fire crisis press conference. shouldn't we be grateful he didn't do a gender revealed during the eulogy? >> come but i guess that baby is a boy and a girl from the press con

i think barack obama could have been what of the great presidents of all time, but he chose not to bee to do was to bring a divisive spirit and attitude to the job of president, the likes of which i've never seen in my lifetime. and today i think we are as divided on race as we've been in decades. i do not believe it is a permanent division, and i believe it can be repaired. it has to be repaired because we go back to the drink of dr. king that we will judge people not by the color of their skin but by the character of their heart. that ought to be the basis of all american relationships. >> one of the other questions that came up quite a bit as i think you can tell by the response you've gotten in the room is that many in this room applaud your position unusual and on security and the role of america on the international stage, but they disagree with you on social issues such as pro-choice and gay marriage. how would you convince people who are staunchly no choice or pro-gay marriage to vote for you? >> i probably wouldn't. if those are the issues upon which your going to select a pr

and this extended conversation between donald trump and barack obama. just so fascinating, especially when you think about how some of the things that donald trump said and did while obama was president. while your point is taken, they didn't run against each other. it was so incredibly personal. >> he claimed he wasn't an american citizen. >> and of course, as ken here comes in the room, vice president harris and doug emhoff also entering the room. >> harris is right behind president biden and her motorcade. so obviously we should expect to see him soon as well. and as we know, we're thinking as as gerald ford's son is going to be reading his words, his eulogy for president carter here. i was thinking this morning, you know, about how gerald ford and jimmy carter, both, in a way, had president nixon to thank for for coming into office and to look at this rare club here known as the presidents club. so many of the trajectories of their presidencies is what led their successor to to then get into office with biden and trump and to see this moment as, as t

i mean some of the problems that were left to barack obama and some of the problems we face today in iran and with isis and in iraq and afghanistan. they came from the early 2000's. but in regard to income, we bring in more money today than we ever have in our history. so when people say, well, there's all these tax cuts that are dropping the revenue in the federal government, that's actually not the case. we're hitting historic highs of revenue coming into the federal coffers and so we don't really have a revenue problem. we have a spending problem. if the reverse would be true if you were to say, listen, the revenues aren't there. we're not, we're not taxing enough, which means we're not bringing enough money. not the case. we are bringing in more money than ever in our history. but we still run historic deficits and debts, and that means what's happening on the spending front and we always talk about the drivers of the debt which we talked about earlier. you know, listen, on the medicare side, we have, we have our baby boomers who retiring. -- you are retiring. modern medicine mea

when donald trump tried to undo some of the barack obama drilling thing, the court said no, you can'to it. found it unconstitutional and said the only way to fix it is congress. the problem with congress is because mike johnson has got such a slim majority, and you need 60 in the senate. they are going to have to put this on one of the reconciliation bills. and as we heard from the president a couple days ago. he would like one big beautiful bill, but now the fight on capitol hill, because he is going to go. trump is going to visit with senate republicans tomorrow night, senate republicans are going to try to talk him into two bills. because one bill is dangerous. and it's just one bill. it will have to wait until may. whereas if it's two bills they can do border and energy just pretty much right out of the gate. >> lawrence: i know there is a lot of talk about the divide in the republican party. there is some divide when it comes to, you know, it's a slim majority. there has to be a conversation about the democrats not learning anything from the election. >> ainsley: right. >> lawren
