trump presidency would help or hurt that country's war effort. >>> former british prime minister boris johnson has been one of the most ardent supporters of ukraine's war effort. reflecting on one of his visits after the invasion, johnson said "i thought i was definitely more popular in kyiv than in some parts of kensington." it is all detailed in his new memoir, unleashed. so, i know that you have been incredibly strong in terms of your support for ukraine. as prime minister, after being prime minister. you must worry that a trump victory would mean the united states would be less zealous in its support for ukraine. >> i do worry a great deal about what will happen in ukraine, and i think it is the single most important issue that we face in our generation, in the early part of the 21st century. this is the deciding conflict in my view. it will set the patent for what happens for decades to come. if the tyranny -- if putin wins, it will have terrible, terrible repercussions for the world, and not just in europe, but in the south china sea, so it has got to go right. now, how is the u.s. elect

. >>> then, i talk to the former british prime minister, boris johnson, about whether he sees himself as a british trump. whether he has any regrets and why he says nato needs to let ukraine in now. >> if putin wins, we'll have terrible, terrible repercussions. >> but first. here's my take. as the election draws nearer and people consider the pro's and con's of the two major candidates, i have to confess, for me one event stands out in bright lights. one i can't forget. it's january 6, 2021. i'm not thinking so much about the violence that broke out on that date. terrible, as that was. those actions were quickly condemned by people from across the political spectrum. by democrats, of course, but by republicans like mitch mcconnell, ted cruze, lindsey graham. to me, the most frightening aspect was not the event outside the capitol but inside it. after the violence had ended and order had been restored. the house finally reconvened that night to certify the election results that had been sent forward from the states. remember, this is after dozens of objections and many of the states ha

boris johnson supercharged it . rcharged it. >> boris johnson might say he's against lockdowns. >> we're all against no, no, no, no, no. >> there was a federal donald trump. >> there was a serious states had states in the us had autonomy to lock down. some states didn't. some states did. and then biden came along and he turbocharged it, fed us vaccines, you know, fed us well , vaccines, you know, fed us well, absolutely. the narrative was that you must have this vaccine. and the debate about the vaccine , and the debate about the vaccine, even though it's gone largely underground at the moment, still needs to be had, untested , needs to be had, untested, untested science being advocated by those of us, those who are in charge of our welfare and shoved down our throats, not allowed to travel, having to have vaccines, you know, millions. >> the evidence of life, the empirical evidence will have been harmed because that's what happens with vaccines, the millions and millions or billions of people, the empirical evidence

now boris johnson has told gb news that sir keir starmer is not doing enough to stop foreign criminalsn the uk. the former prime minister says it is time to review the echr, and says the rwanda plan would have worked. it comes as the number of small boat migrant crossings in the engush boat migrant crossings in the english channel is likely to hit 40,000 by the end of the year. that's according to maritime security sources , as almost security sources, as almost 33,000 have now made the illegal journey so far this year. a home office spokesman said we will stop at nothing to bring the people smuggling gangs to justice, but boris johnson has given patrick christys his thoughts . thoughts. >> i think i really believe that would have been a huge deterrent to illegal migration. it would have been a huge deterrent. it might be time to review the echr, the european convention on human rights , because i think human rights, because i think sometimes it is being applied in a way that is anti—democratic and that is that is stopping the removal of people who plainly need to be removed. >> and ga

so there's all of that and much, much more in what is going to be a rip roaring boris johnson hour this queen was very fond of boris from everything i picked up. but there we go. that's going to be a brilliant programme. it's coming up after the weather. i'll be back tomorrow at 8:00. i'm jacob rees—mogg. this has been state of the nation and you're waiting for the weather report from somerset. i'm glad to tell you that the weather in somerset is extremely pleasant. the sun has broken through the clouds and it will be absolutely glorious. late november weather. >> even though we'll see a cloudy start, it'll be a bright outlook for the rest of the day. boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb news . on gb news. >> hi there! welcome to the latest update from the met office for gb news. following a brighter start to the week for many of us compared with the last week, it stays clear overnight that will lead to frost and fog in places because high pressure is now firmly once again in charge of the weather, but this time with clearer spells under that high pressure and with temperatures falling

boris johnson was was a bit wobbly but she was good. she was confident. she was assertive.vious set of questions. right. yeah. >> in fact we forecast them on air i think before she said them. >> exactly. so she was helped in that sense. but in future she'll be judged on the questions you ask. she'll have she'll have options. and i think she'll probably have to be a bit quicker with her wit and her answers. >> you do learn that, don't you, lloyd? russell—moyle? i mean, you asked a few questions in the house of commons yourself. it's nerve racking. >> yes. >> yes. >> i mean, i found it took a long time for me when i became a new mp to really just work out the sounding in the room. >> you know, you've got a microphone there, but everyone's shouting, so you've got to project your voice to be able to hean project your voice to be able to hear, for everyone to hear you. but the tv, they think you're shouting and you're facing the enemy. >> you're facing the tories, aren't you? >> so it's all it's all very difficult. i think it was a very average start. i must admit. i don't think

just as liz truss is overturning boris johnson, the gop seeks to overturn joe biden. >> that's the idea. the economy is down. you need shock therapy from a right wing policy apparatus to shock the country back into prosperity. to their credit, in england, they really did it. as soon as truss moved in, she put her budget plan into effect and within weeks, the results were clear. >> it sounds like you are saying crisis, what crisis. >> i'm not saying that at all. i think we are in a very serious situation. >> she was speaking for the first time since the mini budget last week. higher interest rates and extreme volatility on the financial markets. >> this is something you see in developing countries going through difficulties. you do not see this normally in a g7 economy. >> and yet she pulls it off right? she sank the british economy overnight just as critics said she would. the british pound plummeted to new lows against the dollar. bank and mortgage rates spiked. there were huge protests. market went crazy. effortsto calm the markets did not inspire much confidence. >> i know the plan p

ever since lydd airport , when boris johnson airport, when boris johnson stood there and said, we'rerwanda plan. and rishi, as leader said, stop the boats. and james cleverly , boats. and james cleverly, stupidly said the numbers were coming down after a period of very bad weather. we've seen the numbers today, sure, since starmer came to power, 6000 more have gone into hotels. that's his problem. but going back to your period , the bill for your period, the bill for illegal migrants in the last year rose by 36%. and yesterday we had kemi badenoch, you know, robotically reading off an autocue, saying, we're going to get this sorted. why should anyone believe you guys ever ' 7 m. again? >> well, if we want to talk about my record, nigel, and you know that i'm very fond of you as well. and so these are not necessarily the easiest conversations for us to have . conversations for us to have. but the fact is, i took through the house of commons and through parliament, the nationality and borders act and the changes that were introduced through that legislation did a number of things, but

what do you think of boris johnson's political analysis of? what's happening in georgia? the ways johnson loves shift forest. johnson is definitely an intriguing character . i describe him as a dangerous, eccentric, and we'll just look at him and you'll learn a lot about who he is, what he poses a real danger. why? because he acts against the interest of peace in euro. he pushes his anti russian and also anti ukrainian agenda. at one point when she had influence over the ukrainian leadership, they could have engaged in peace talks and even reached agreements on the principles of conflict resolution. it's no secret that it was him who told them no, don't do that, will support you. everything will be fine. you need to show determination. and then she was out of the picture. so every time he makes comments, now, all i can muster is a bitter smile. this is a man who is already tainted his legacy in this conflict. his views on the elections in georgia are just as clear. he doesn't support the current political force there. so he resorts to terms like stolen election and so fort

what do you think of boris johnson's political analysis of what's happening in georgia ways? johnson? let's shift forest. johnson is definitely an intriguing character. i describe him as a dangerous, eccentric, and we just looked at him and you'll learn a lot about who he is, what he poses a real danger slice conceal because he acts against the interest of peace in europe . he pushes his anti russian and also anti ukrainian agenda. at one point when he had influence over the ukrainian leadership, they could have engaged in peace talks and even reached agreements on the principles of conflict resolution. it's no secret that it was him who told them no, don't do that, will support you. everything will be fine. you need to show determination. and then she was out of the picture would. so every time he makes comments, now, all i can muster is a bitter smile. this is a man who has already painted his legacy in this conflict, and his views on the elections in georgia are just as clear. he doesn't support the current political force there. so he resorts to terms like stolen election

he even slammed boris johnson for being endorsed by trump. made boris unfit to be prime minister. but now he's all smiles as the closest of allies, the uk and us, will continue to work together to protect our shared values of freedom and democracy, and having having had dinner with president elect trump just a few weeks ago, i look forward to working with him in the years to come . that in the years to come. that dinner with trump is going to become the new. my dad was a toolmaker, isn't he? you can see that coming a mile off. but our home secretary, yvette cooper , home secretary, yvette cooper, said of some trump remarks these aren't just harmless rants from aren't just harmless rants from a sad man in his bedroom. this is the bully pulpit of the most powerful man on the planet broadcast to millions of people. here she is also on camera, conveniently saying that the uk shouldn't welcome trump. >> i think the problem for us is that to roll out a red carpet at the moment could well become to provide a platform for further tweets or further div

you may have forgotten this, but that summer conservative prime minister boris johnson announced his resignation. after brexit and covid and a whole host of scandals, his government had failed to stop inflation, the cost of living crisis in that country, something that happened to all sorts of countries in the developed world. increased political havoc and he was succeeded by a fellow conservative named liz truss, the woman you see there, who promised this new economic agenda that was dubbed prussin onyx. and she was explicit, right? her plan to restore britain to greatness was massive cuts to taxes on operations, bankers bonuses, and wealthy incomes, and the idea was that those wealthy job creators would fuel economic growth. and in the meantime, to make up for the monumental amount of lost revenue for the tax cuts, the tory government would just go heavily to cover its expenses. now critics called her plan casino economics and robin hood in reverse. they said it would be a windfall for the rich. it would deepen income inequality all while, usually, weakening the british pound and s

that is where the former prime minister boris johnson and former chancellor rishi sunak were given as restrictions.— restrictions. some of those thins i restrictions. some of those things i think _ restrictions. some of those things i think your - restrictions. some of those l things i think your perception issues — things i think your perception issues i_ things i think your perception issues. i think a lot of the things— issues. i think a lot of the things around partygate were not why— things around partygate were not why i resigned. i thought they— not why i resigned. i thought they were overblown. you should not have — they were overblown. you should not have created fixed penalty notices. — not have created fixed penalty notices, for example. that was notices, for example. that was not going — notices, for example. that was not going with our principles. it was interesting to see the dividing lines between the two parties in this interview. kemi badenoch said her views on the economy could not be more different from rachel reeves. she said it is businesses create growth and you

tony blair and john major are there, gordon brown, david cameron, boris johnson with theresa may, lizlitical parties at westminster. and the various members of the government, who laid wreaths. well, soon we will have the wreath laying, the next formal wreath laying by the royal british legion which now takes over the event. that's the formal part over and the royal british legion, who have arranged all of this, take over. they themselves will be laying wreaths and then the veterans will start their march past. at this point let's rejoin sophie raworth. there are 11 world war ii veterans here today and we had six normandy the 20, the youngest is 98, the oldest is 101. henry rice, who served with the royal navy, you've been here before, what does it mean to be you can hear the quiet there has been over the last half—hour. that is to change, people starting to talk again. there is the march past, so important to so many groups. there is 10,000 veterans who are registered to march from more than 300 individual organisations. we have the newly formed uk afghanistan veterans. marching here

following the start of the special military operation, we were ready to sign to an agreement, boris johnson, who seems to be more pro ukrainian than even the landscape. this pullman decides no, don't sign, you know, change the fortunes of war. boating has said what his terms for peace are and the radio chatter has gradually started to come to peace to come to terms with this. yeah, it's active. we telling the landscape, this is the best deal that you're going to get because every time that you go on or reject it, rush, it increases this fortune. this can only be seen as just another way of scheduling this. um, so i, i, i failed to see what the military strategy is except in just giving russian a bloody nose before the war ends. yeah. well aaron, that's that, that's not thinking geo politically. i mean, what's interesting is that over the last few weeks, i think almost all of you would agree that there was a growing consensus. this thing has to come to an end, okay. and then all of a sudden, out of the blue, know what we need another offensive, just as michael just said, every time someone t

and boris johnson and victoria newland have recently brag that they stopped that. so the point is, most of the damage and the depths that have occurred did not have to occur. why do you think joe biden would give approval for ukraine to use these long range missiles now after the presidential election? because we're in a transition phase in united states, of course, the administer per administration is on the way out. a trump is going to be inaugurated in about 2 months now. why now, when by the end resisted up until this point? you know, i'm not even sure biden did give these orders. i'm still looking for some official confirmation. as recently as 2 days ago, sabrina's thing at the pentagon would not answer a question as to whether the us policy had changed. now clearly, it has changed. did bite in order this, i don't know. i think someone in the congress at this moment should be invoking the work powers resolution. article one, section 8 of our constitution says the president can not deploy a american soldiers into the possibility with another nation. and everybo

and she just wouldn't engage at all, although she would engage on boris johnson.e was overblown, which i think some newscasters might find an interesting suggestion, and then she said there wasn't proper honesty around the chris pincher scandal. butjohn, newscast listener in devon, hello, john. thank you for listening. he says, thank you for grilling the new leader. as a lifelong conservative supporter, i'm saddened she didn't want to answer questions on what went wrong for the conservatives. defensive and arrogant, frankly, and i won't be supporting them again. so, you know, it's interesting. some politicians believe actually, if they kind of turn a question or try to turn an interview on the person in the opposite chair and say, well, i'm not going to get into that because i want to talk about something else, they think actually that plays well for the audience sometimes, because we're all well aware that sometimes our viewers and listeners are throwing things at the telly and saying, oh, you shut up, but it's sometimes it's counterproductive. and john here is s

boris johnson, they're the boss of the post office and the boss of p80. yeah. end up being mr aggressive when it comes to taking the chair at the select committee? well, look, the thing that gave me the most pride in chairing the select committee. for example, in the royal mail dispute, working with postal workers and others is that select committees are a function of parliament, which is a function of the politicians that we elect as a public. 0urjob is to hold the powerful to account on behalf of the people. that is really important. and there's loads of stuff that we do every day that might not get through to the public. but these hearings where i was holding powerful people to account, who had not behaved in the way they should have done an injustice to other people, it was important that i did that in a way that was tough, but also made people have pride in their parliament in being able to do thatjob for them. and it is rooted in my personal politics about feeling disempowered, growing up and knowing what it means when you do not have the ability or the a

uk pm boris johnson, gone from power, the conservative party trounced in recent elections by a the left-leaning labor party. where all these changes get tested first, likely over trump's campaign promise to end russia's war in ukraine. >> i will have that done in 24 hours >> reporter: france to pull ukraine funding. almost 50 european leaders gathered in budapest just two days after the u.s. elections the trump's victory and -- a top topic. trump ally and meeting host, hungarian p.m. viktor orban, in close conversation with macron and stallman. then, just the tip of the iceberg of debate on this frosty issue. later, ukraine zelenskyy. >> our support is unwavering >> reporter: the unspoken question, can europe go it alone? >> we should be very clear on this. security is not something we outsource to someone else, like the united states >> reporter: akron said the same thing, but already clear the opening pitch to trump. >> we need you. >> we are open to discussion on how we can work better together. >> reporter: at the sharp end of the cell, dodo's new chief, another change for trump. >> i look

>> is a different set of concerns and when you talk to european leaders and i interviewed boris johnson. what he said this could go bad or worse and if you have republicans like rubio and walt who want to negotiate into the war but in a way that preserves their sovereignty and dignity to a degree versus people like jd vance and donald trump junior and tucker carlson who are like let the russians have it, that is a big difference so even ukrainians welcome some sort of change but the current pace of the wards grueling for them but if it is a rubio change versus another change it's a pretty big difference. >> i think it is naÏve. i do love my party and policy people but it is trump's agenda and i don't see rubio as being somebody or anyone is being able to push back on what trump has made clear. >> i remember from the first term trump's agenda change every day and changed again and no policy was ever settled if you look at the russia policy it went back and forth with the china policy the same so these fights are happening an important and matter to people of the world and we don't know w

thomas: during donald trump's first term in office, he had a close personal rapport with boris johnsonk that was why the united states and u.k. worked well together during that period. that will not be the case with the labour government and keir starmer in particular. i think there are certainly worries about what these tensions will portend for the special relationship. tom: appreciate you coming to the studio bright and early to give analysis around the shifting sands of u.s. politics. thomas gift, director of the center on u.s. politics at university college london. coming up, our exclusive interview with hensoldt's ceo. we will be talking about the trump impact on the european defense sector and the political uncertainty in germany. this is bloomberg. ♪ tom: happy thursday. we will do a deep dive on the defense space. earnings crossing from the key defense manufacturer rheinmetall confirming his forecast and full-year sales of 10 billion euros, marginally above the estimates. full-year operating margin expected to come in at 15%, the higher end of the previous range and sales abov

boris johnson gone from power. the conservative party trounced in recent elections by trend bucking left leaning labor party. where all of these changes get tested first , likely over trump's campaign promise to end russia's war in ukraine. in a day. as well as threats to pull america's ukraine funding. as almost 50 european leaders gathered in budapest just two days after the u.s. elections, trumps victory and ukraine are eight top topic. trump ally and meeting host the gary and p.m. victor in close conversation with macron. just a tip of the iceberg of debate on this frosty issue. later with ukraine's leader as well. the unspoken question, can europe go it alone? >> we should be clear on this, european security is not something we outsource to somebody else like the u.s. >> reporter: macron said the same thing but already clear, the opening pitch to trump, we need you. >> we are open to discussion with the u.s. on how we can work better together. >> reporter: at the sharp end of europe's cell, nato's new chief, a

. >> gillian: take a listen to boris johnson, former u.k.me minister yesterday weighing in with a take on this. >> let's face it. we're waging a proxy war. we're waging a proxy war, but we're not giving our proxies the ability to do the job. >> gillian: i flag this, brett, because i'm interested to hear if you think this is the way the trump administration sees the scenario on the ground. with we know that the biden administration believes without admitting it that this is a proxy war ukraine is fighting on behalf of the entire western world. that's why we're arming them, but do you think the trump team sees it the same way? >> i worry about following anything that the biden administration has done. anything they've done up to this point has not worked and frankly the facts don't lie. putin waited until biden took office to invade ukraine. they had not invaded when trump was in office. it's supposed to be a reflection of the country, a beacon of the power projection and strength. we need to do whatever it takes to bring that back and i think

just as liz truss is overturning boris johnson, the gop seeks to overturn joe biden. >> the economy is more of in the. within the doldrums. shock therapy from a right-wing policy apparatus to shock the country back into prosperity. and to their credit, and they really did it, as soon as truss moved into 10 downing street that's a bummer, she put her budget plan into effect, and within weeks the results were clear . >> prime minister, it sounds like you're saying crisis, what crisis. >> i'm not saying that at all. i think we're in a very serious situation. >> ms. truss was speaking for the first time since the many budget last week , which led to a collapse in the value of the pound, higher interest rates, and extreme volatility on the financial markets. >> this is something that you see in developing countries going through difficulties. you normally do not see this in a g7 economy. >> and yet, liz truss pulled it off, right? she sank the british economy overnight, just as critics said she would. the british pound plummeted to new lows against the dollar. bank and mortgage interest rat

, so donald trump was talking about his concern for boris johnson. it was a very normal discussion. i would expect this meeting will be similar. >> at least, from biden's standpoint. >> i'm just thinking of all the things out here, the pardons and the scenarios, if harris won, do they pardon trump? does trump say on the call, hey, i am going to pardon hunter biden? did he say anything like that? >> no, i highly doubt it. >> does he do it? >> i don't know. he likes executive power and the pardon is the ultimate executive power. >> there is a part of him that would love that. >> it might be healing for the country if joe biden preemptively pardoned him before jack smith drops the case. the whole country can start over. >> i think it's possible. i don't think that's out of the realm of possibility. i'm not sure that this conversation is where he would drop that. >> no, he would want to do it -- you would want to time it more strategically. >> okay. i'm not sure about the pardons, but to your point about starting over, there is an opportunity. i think th

also we're hearing about massive blowup between musk and boris epstein that you're reporting on boris johnson is a longtime trump top trump adviser. all of this over cabinet picks. and axios is reporting about that dustup. so what's really going on here about the dynamics between trump and musk, who, like i said are literally joined at the hip. you can't get a photo of trump without musk in it, right now. >> it looks pretty good. those who know donald trump say the one thing that donald trump really prizes and really respects are people who make a lot of money and elon musk being the richest or one of the richest men in the world, gets a lot of respect from donald trump. but people wonder at what point the two are going to have a falling out. typical of trump's caught, so to speak is that proximity to power is power itself and there inevitably are these squabbles that erupt around trump. and now you're seeing it from what we understand with elon musk and boris epstein. now, what elon musk is going to discover is that boris epstein has sort of a master canine relationship or canine master rela

boris johnson was was a bit wobbly but she was good. she was confident. she was assertive.obvious set of questions. right. yeah. >> in fact we forecast them on air i think before she said them. >> exactly. so she was helped in that sense. but in future she'll be judged on the questions you ask. she'll have she'll have options. and i think she'll probably have to be a bit quicker with her wit and her answers. >> you do learn that, don't you, lloyd? russell—moyle? i mean, you the heat of knows as well in the heat of election campaigns and electioneering , people say electioneering, people say slightly nasty things about each other . trump does it to slightly nasty things about each other. trump does it to his opponents as well, and if keir and lammy are willing to do the deal with trump, he loves a deal for britain. and that's that's the key thing. now, even if we distaste the politics, you've got to do what's for best britain. if they're willing to do that, i think trump will probably play along. and that's that's what we have to do now, unfortunately, because that's yes, th

a media or manipulations where the scholars are also using it to test the western weapons at boris and johnson, who has recently reappeared with us. that is on tv. oh goodness. said that the war is being waged by the west is in the hands of the cranes, washington london. have you seen capitals for the fish are still trying to sweep the crimes of the tools under the rug walking the sources of news insurance, inconvenient for the narrative, trying is how does they can to paralyze international human rights, a bodies those who happen next, those you pressure drive this little of them kills by you. creating nazis are not mentioned in any wisdom media. but let's think about the children. essentially choices are still for some of the properties. in fact, the, the face use this persecution for so many years. they have been able to hide this truth and this is what a way to do. all those codes disagree with the west of this white selling goods that rightsignature you've. so even if us, let me know if i agree with join us as much, russia was the only country to speak out in his defense for a while. all

presidents biden, donald trump, vice presidents kamala harris and mike pence, uk prime minister boris johnson and french president emmanuel have been interviewed on the program along with republican and democratic leaders. please join me in welcoming our panel. thank you for that introduction and to all of you for joining us here today. i always love speaking to people and have them be able to look back and not just in a tv studio. and this is a great for a conversation, i think will be a fun one. a lively one tonight. and as i mentioned, the last time i was here at the historical association, i always feel good when i'm in this building, this is the building where i got married to my husband, who's right here in the front row. i'm married at the decatur house. i love this place. it's beautiful. so we're glad you're here to talk about history tonight. and to to enjoy this conversation that you all can participate in as we move forward. i know there will be a moved throughout the room when we get closer to 630 and you'll be able to raise you can ask anything as an old editor told me, just ask

friends, vladimir putin and kim jong-un and all these people, he's never listing, you know, maybe boris johnsonss. now you got labor government in the uk. they'll try flattering, but i think what is more important is to know what your backup plan is, if you're the ukrainians or the europeans. and to know, you know in the united states system, i think it is also really important for those people to be talking to republicans in congress. that actually worked better for ukraine including in the trump administration. a lot of the assistance that flowed to ukraine and the trump administration was because there were large majorities in congress including republicans who wanted to do that. it is not just about trump himself and can i build this personal relationship with him, because the reality is, you know, i'm sure trump is very nice to zelenskyy, if people flatter him, he says nice things back. that doesn't translate him into doing the things you want him to do. the elon musk part of it is notable to. it is oligarchy vibes in the sense you got titans of industry who are also titans of government.

jonathan: boris johnson was a journalist and then trimester. reporting spirit airlines preparing to file for vacancy production. the budget carrier and discussions with potholders to hammer out a plan after merger talks with frontier broke down. this talk is down 65%. the hope is we will have to deal with this all over again. the hope is if two companies come together and make a deal, the hope is we don't do this again because it will be easier to make deals with the new admin trason. that administration -- administration. dani: if they did this in 2025, would it look different? in the meantime, you have to remember the rise and fall of the company. they changed airlines in the u.s. spirit is why we have to pay for extra baggage and why we have to pay for seat assignments. notice becoming sort of a relic of that era. something that probably would not have happened in years to come. annmarie: still waiting to see who he puts in some places like the ftc. yesterday jane fraser of citi said game on. our clients are waiting. there has been pent up d

let's look at britain in 2019, you know, boris johnson had cracked the code to win over working classd, and now trump has to perform, and he's very good at being performative. i'm not so sure he's good at performing on the grounds of working class voters you're looking for. we'll see. >> well, performing is obviously so important. also, avoiding overreach. >> exactly. >> that's what haunted bill clinton in '94. that's what haunted barack obama in 2010. donald trump in 2018, that's why, as you look, you know, there was so much flying in donald trump's first two years in '17 and '18, and we all remember those scenes the first week of his presidency, and all the airports jammed and all the chaos. >> right. >> it would seem to me the goal this time should be to figure out how to come in and be the antithesis of what everybody expects. come in, do the job and figure out a way to do it, in a way where there aren't these huge sort of explosions where you're not seen as overreaching. americans are funny. they'll say, yeah, we'll take this, this, and this. you give it to them in a way they don

that is going to be mike johnson, who has the support of donald trump, but there is a catch, boris. the house republicans are projected to have a majority. they will have a razor thin majority. that means that while mike johnson will be nominated by the house republicans conference to be the next speaker of the house and retain the gavel, he can't afford much dissension on the house floor to get the 218 votes he will need on january 3rd to be elected speaker. the work will still be cut out for some folks on the far right, some trying to push him out of the speaker role, some like marjorie taylor greene. johnson is leaning very much on donald trump, who wants johnson in that position. now, trump will have unified republican control of washington to push through his agenda. boris. >> we will keep a close eye on that contest. manu raju live on capitol hill. thank you so much. >>> president elect trump got a warm welcome during his trip to capitol hill this morning. what do you know? this was behind closed doors. >> reporter: some of it, we got to hear a little bit of, when donald trump
