bob dole used to carry a copy of the 10th amendment in his breast pocket. the 10th amendment says the federal government cannot coerce or commandeer the states or localities to do these kinds of actions. this is the thing that has been celebrated by conservatives and even by donald trump. and he is using the overweaning power of the federal government to do something which the american people don't actually want. >> yeah, and recent supreme court decisions indicate that the federal government can't force the states to do these things. senator, the striking things about this include the very simple mathematical fact that california contributes more money to the federal treasury than any other state in the union. and it does not get back as much as it contributes. and so the notion that there would be some -- that the federal government would then restrict the flow to california, which is already a very generous donor state to the federal government is doubly ironic. >> that's correct, lawrence. you're absolutely right. we send for every dollar we send to was

the entire republican establishment was against him, everyone except bob dole refused to attend his convention. it is fair for him to i don't know if it's a good use of his time, but it's fair for him to say that the media largely accepted the establishment critique of his policies. he is an isolationist. he does believe in protectionism and a lot of people believe he's sort of fomented the sense of nationalism that didn't just border on racism but had overt racist undertones to it. he put off and put out a lot of people, so the speech today was exactly what we should have expected it to be, yet it's still shocking to hear something like what he did today at the inaugural. so i think there's going to be, they're rookies at some of the logistics but i think who gets what pen is the least of our worries for anyone that sort of cares about norms and traditions. >> some of the lunch combinations are fascinating. rosa delouro, the liberal connecticut democrat next to the giulianis. leahy at the table with wilbur ross, just some fantastic combinations. how about that, the chairman and ceo of exxonmo

when bob dole faced a primary challenge from pat buchanan who was running on a trade skeptic platformlighthizer urged dole to adopt some of that rhetoric. this is brand consistent for donald trump. i think lighthizer would be a popular choice within the republican party. somebody who has got a long track record. and sonny perdue as ag secretary, would almost fill out the cabinet. so the china and north korea stuff, not sure whether that was just a marker by the president-elect, or something signaling that behind the scenes something is happening from his end. >> to me, the bigger question on the tweets is do we think the tweets will continue after he becomes president? >> all signs are that he will. and his aides have said they will. this is a way of communicating that he enjoys. that they continue control. >> he finds it effective, too. not because he enjoys it. it had a lot to do with the campaign, with the way he speaks to the american people. >> fire enough. without going through the fake news apparatus of the mainstream media. i tell you what i'm scared of. i'm scared of chicago,
