who doesn't say red states and blue states, only sees the united states. people to win the confidence of all of you, and for that is what america, i believe, is about. it's about people, and that's what our administration will be all about. i thought this office to restore the soul of america. to rebuild the backbone of this nation. the middle—class, and to make america respected around the world again. and to unite us here at home, it is the honour of my lifetime that so many millions of americans have voted for that vision. and now, the work of making that vision is real. it is the task of our time. folks, as i've said many times before, i'm jill's husband. and i would not be here without her love and tireless support ofjill and my son hunter and ashley my daughter and all our grandchildren, and their spouses, and all our family. they are my heart. jill is a mom, a military mum, and educator. she dedicated her life to education, but teaching isn't just what she does, it's who she is. you're going to have one of your own in the white house. jill is going

it was very blue state/red state. they were wearing masks in blue states. they were not wearing masks in red states. so people would talk about it. but i think in so many ways there are so many bigger issues, especially to the trump voters. remember -- we have to remember, they're voting for an incumbent now. in 2016 it was, we don't want to vote for a washington guy. he's something new. he's a businessman. they're voting on his record now, and that record is covid. that record is the economy, that record is immigration and race relations. so they've made a decision, those trump voters, that they like what donald trump has done in these last four years, including covid. trump voters i have talked to and said things about covid -- one voter in texas, who's a very strong supporter, had a mask on. he said he only wears it when he goes into certain establishments so he can get into them, but his mask said, "this is dumb". today he told me, dr. fauci, everything he says is wrong so. that message is resonating in those areas, too. but you go through ohio -- i was

was bringing the country together healing the country and she was saying we're not red states and blue states we're the united states of america and that was very welcome change for many americans from the divisive fredrick that we have heard from president trump over the last 4 years and president elect joe biden also think african-americans saying you stood up for us when we really needed it and that was very important because the black communities in places like atlanta and philadelphia really helped to win this election one of the top priorities for the incoming administration. biden made very clear that his number one priority would be controlling the coronavirus pandemic is already said he is very shortly going to announce a task force with scientists and experts on board which was of course very good news for many people here in the u.s. who were tired of hearing from a president who does not seem to care very much about about science and about medical experts and then biden also mentioned that he was going to fight a systemic racism and tackle climate change and he has previously said

states right now. they need help and they should get help. this is not a blue pandemic or a red deming. keep hoping that enough other senators from struggling states, republican senators, will whisper in mcconnell's ear and say, we need to do stuff because it is my state suffering. joe: so great to get your perspective. alan blinder, former federal reserve vice chairman. coming up, more on what janet yellen would mean as treasury secretary. what would it mean for the aspect of financial regulation? this is bloomberg. ♪ caroline: today we are focused administrationed -- with the bite in administered -- what the biden administration will mean for the economy and the marketplace. joe: financial stocks doing extremely well of late. financial stocks, we know they got hammered earlier in the year. snp financials, pretty impressive comeback lately, lagging behind the overall market. still, what does that mean?

but charlie baker in massachusetts, larry hogan, republican governors of blue states, have to figure out a way to govern their state without supporting the president of the party. >> yeah. and it is really relatively straightforward. i said so let me tell you something. that's the practical nature of this. and i will tell you, george, when i as a sitting governor in new jersey endorsed president trump in late february of 2016, in the next poll, my poll numbers went down 15 points. that's the reality of being a republican governor in a blue state, getting involved in federal politics. so you know, i think what we need to understand as a party, if we want to be in these blue states and have republican governors, we have to give them a pass on federal issues. >> martha? >> i'll tell you, george, one of the things that is a concern. this may go through rest of the week. people saying i didn't vote for trump before. i'm voting for him now. they cite his record. we also say, what happens if your candidate doesn't win? we talked about the signs in neighborhoods. people ripping down those sig

it will be no red states or blue states, just the united states of america!s presidential election, as we've been hearing, an unprecedented number of people have voted early, most of them by post. that's been contentious, with donald trump saying without evidence that the process is open to fraud. he says he has his lawyers ready. clive myrie sent this report from the key battle ground state of pennsylvania. america is unnerved... ..but energised. the mining of votes by the campaigns is now over on this election day. and norb dotzel, who helps run a family quarry business in rural pennsylvania, is adamant his voice will be heard. he'll vote in person. he doesn't want to risk a mail—in ballot. despite coronavirus. how you doing? not too bad. good, good. bottom line is, you just don't trust them? i don't trust them, no. i don't trust them. no. and i'm not a conspiracy theorist or anything like that. ijust wanted to know... i'm going to go do it the way i always did it. they have all these safety protocols in place, six feet, wear the mask, all that stuff. if th

he echoed president obama when he said there are no red states and blue states, just the united states. he is setting an entirely different tone than the current occupant of the white house. he understands how divided the country is and understands the challenges that this country faces at the moment. a is coming into office at very difficult time. i cannot help but think of the parallels to when president 2009 came into office in after the economic crisis. the first thing they did was pass a big stimulus package that included big infrastructure pieces. there are a lot of parallels and of course we are dealing with the coronavirus health pandemic that is very different but in terms of the economy, in terms challenges,mic biden is facing a similar situation to president obama who he served under. host: let's go to our republican line. caller: i want to tell you you cheated on the election. you used a scorecard. signals intelligence program devised by the nsa and you used to use it for the islamic terrorists. it changes the vote midstream. a -- had ohio, florida, texas and then you stopp

the blue states that won, those states will be won for joe biden. and electors are going to do what the popular vote says to do and there's no evidence we have any evidence of wrongdoing at this point. joe biden's victory is pretty convincing. he didn't just win by one states. he won by multiple states. you'd need multiple states to go off the reservation. >> i seem to remember three electors defected from hillary clinton. i'm not sure that was california, but i think it was a blue state. >> so what that would mean is that joe biden winning by 306 electoral votes but won by 303. i don't imagine there's going to be any, if any. i expect them to follow the rule. >> all right. a new poll shows that 80% of americans believe biden won including 60% of republican voters. yet the administration has told federal agencies not to cooperate with the biden transition. he's not getting money for the transition. he's not getting intelligence, he's not getting office space. are democrats doing anything to try to force the issue? >> we're simply going to follow the

suggesting blue states may said their own review boards and withhold lifesaving vaccines from their own people. for who knows how long until this extra obstacle had been hurdled. this is where they are. if over horgan is president until new york and california reinvent their own fda. to be clear, nearly 4 billion prescriptions every single year. 4 billion prescriptions. testing the expertise and professionalism of the fda. that is the trusted authority. nobody is crying out for liberal governors to have approval let alone potentially delay the end of covid-19 to do so. with the vaccine proves to be the one citizens in new york and california should not have it withheld because the governors care more about opposing president trump than about this. it reminds me when the senator from california declared in september during our vice presidential campaign that you might hesitate to trust a vaccine. the whole country understands our democratic friends are not members of the donald trump. we know that. they do not need to dabble in the early stages anti- vaccine conspiracy theories to prove

the keynote speech at the democratic national convention is that there are no red states or no blue states or only the united states of america the current election map does not seem to reflect that. red states have gotten better blue states or gotten blue or no matter who wins i think one of their top priorities has to be to try to unite the country to be the president for all of america not going to be very tough considering that neither site right now is willing to accept the other side as legitimate funeral at all thank you thank you. well it's not only people in the u.s. of course who are anxiously waiting to find out who is going to be the next president europe is watching very closely let's bring in now christina bears' enough from the german marshall fund in brussels she's a senior fellow at the alliance for securing democracy they're welcome to the program and thank you for joining us as we've been discussing here trump has called the integrity of the electoral process into question what is the state of democracy in the u.s. right now. and thank you have for having me i mean when

for trump or biden states and lighter blue or pink they are leading toward biden or trump respectively any one state would give biden the win trump needs a combination of states in order to clinch the presidency for a 2nd term so let's break down what all of this means of and ahead to the table now where my colleague peter vola doll has been following all of the results for us and has been standing by to break it all down for us peter got to start talk about georgia just right now george wafer thin margin but 99 percent of the vote counted it's going in favor of biden how confident do you think he and his campaign are right now george is a nail biter if there was one above but no president will win that state since a democratic president since 92 bill clinton byt in with the latest fashion which is god is off by just a little over a 1000 votes with i said 99 percent of the state ballot count reported. we're looking at just over $5000.00 votes left to be tapped related most of which are from clayton county that is part of the greater plan to metropolitan areas so more urban more democra

had it wrong, they have to behave more like blue states. of them did all that well. the blue states have had lower death rates but they have also had slower employment recovery rates. we need a new measure that is different from what either side was doing in the last three or four months, and it is clear what that measure is, do what the nba did, what harvard and cornell will doing -- were doing, test them frequently, isolate them, and then get back to business. david: do what taiwan, south korea did. we heard from president trump, saying that the vaccine news was good. we have to do testing, contact tracing. it seems pretty simple, but sometimes it can be hard. it is not clear that people will comply with that. paul: there was an interesting comparison with how new jersey responded to an outbreak in the orthodox jewish community, compared to new york. they responded with public mandates, don't group together, wear masks. in new jersey, they just started testing people and gave them more information. once people started to see how many of t

he talks about blue states and red states.nd he makes this really important and has been throughout his campaign and saying it is not about blue states, it is not about rheed states, it is about the united states of america. this is something we heard from donald trump on inauguration day when he first began his presidency. it sets the stage for what we can expect from joe biden going forward the next four years. >> yeah. i mean, i think when you have someone who is true to himself and continually stays within his own character, it's such a refreshing moment of candor and authenticity. and i think it illustrates why for donald trump throughout the campaign he had such a hard time trying to label joe biden as someone that you couldn't trust, as someone who the american people should be suspicious of. of all the things that he tried to assign to hillary clinton back in the 2016 campaign. why it didn't work in 2020. joe biden is exactly all those things that he's talking about. he is genuine, he doesn't see a red or blue america,
