clinton: probably.e the first president since john adams -- that was a day or two ago -- not to attend his successor's inauguration. and i was proud of the fact that kamala harris made it perfectly clear that they won this time. and that's what you're supposed to do. and so, i, and i think i'm speaking for hillary, believe that we should, whenever possible, reinforce the democratic norms of a free society where people change. it may be especially important this time because remember not long before the election, president trump did an interview with a conservative radio station and said that his chrisian nationalists had to get out and vote this time, but if they did and he won, they would never have to vote again because he would have it rigged so they wouldn't have to worry. and i don't believe that will happen. >> stephen: do you think there's any possibility that the 22nd amendment could be gotten around by saying well, it wasn't three contiguous terms. and if so, would you run again?

clinton brought it to a new height. clinton was known as a governor as slick willy. slick willy was the franchise name of some pool halls down in the south, and he began his public appearances really i we got to know him because of his line about gennifer flowers. he was having an affair. he lied about on 60 minutes. so the first time we knew him he was lying. his first day in office literally the first week he had to focus on what was then called gays in the military but it was this whole notion that if you were gay you were not or a a lesbian you will not be in the military. he had to focus on this as we came up with his cockamamie idea of "don't ask, don't tell." don't ask what my sexual orientation is, and and i wl professor my sexual orientation is. after soyuz of that being a policy, or 10,000 people were kicked out of the military. he continually created this thing, i interviewed dee dee myers for the book, who was his gamification director. she said this is one of the things he always did. he created him to his advantage, too, was to leave himself and out in

clinton: thank you. thank you very much, melanne, and it is always great to be back here at georgetown. dean hellmann, thank you for your leadership school of foreign service and to all of you gathered for this award ceremony. as melanne said, she and i dreamed up this institute and these awards more than a decade ago to recognize the importance of women's participation and leadership in global peace building and conflict resolution. i keep waiting for the year when that mission feels less urgent, but that is not this year. there is as you all know so well, so many problems in the world, so much conflict, and we have to keep doing all that we can in order to move forward. because we can't allow the forces of war and darkness and conflict to discourage us and to overwhelm our will. because we have made progress. in the past 30 years, the number of women heads of state around the world has increased. the number of women in parliaments globally has doubled, but that is not enough. because simply embracing t

and not bill clinton.uage used to describe her... - what a saxophone player that monica lewinsky turned out to be. (laughing) - yes, he was impeached but he also skated out of that white house known as the big dog with a kind of sexualized admiration. - kind of stunned that he lied to us all, you know, all that stuff. but you know, i still, i forgive him. and i think everyone else should because he's been trying to do his best. - bill clinton's reputation has taken a hit or three but he's always going to be former president bill clinton. and she is always going to be the intern who had sex with him. this is a human being and this was a profound trauma that she endured. - [brian williams] said lewinsky quote, "i never expected to fall in love with the president. i was surprised that i did." at times, she believed he loved her too. - i don't know that i really understood how horrible we were at the time. and later on realizing, wow, that was just my own sexism and misogyny embedded in me that i didn't even k

>> so, bill clinton, president clinton said this is a hard business, is politics, and i'm like yes, because we are talking about running the united states of america. you know, i do have to remind everybody that it was bill clinton who oversaw the beginnings of the border wall. that actually happened under his watch. he ran an anti-immigrant campaign, i'm just saying. he would actually say we have to stop, his words, illegal immigrants from coming across the border. just refreshing everybody's mind. so, when i hear him talk about no, the party does not have to become more progressive to win, i disagree, i think the party does have to become more progressive to win. i think the party has to speak to people on the issues, but also, let's be clear, massive amounts of disinformation and misinformation, talking about how the economy was in crisis and people bought into this, but the democrats also -- as we were saying, they don't know how to sell themselves, they don't have the fight. i mean, the word that i hear from young people is spineless. >> yep. >> is not a fun way to talk about the democ

the scores is what i bill clinton in michigan. i mean the guy has a controversial legacy and made accusations that he exasperated the protocol of the so called a rust belt. you may remember from still belts a rust belt, which is an issue there. and he made it easier for us companies to relocate the file she's overseas. so why she is bill clinton, you know, to talk to the democratic campaign initiative. it's really decatur activities for me in my mind that there is a degree of desperation. so the field of view are kind of running out of cards in doing this and for whatever reason. bill, under the impression, that's where the medium is completion is happening. that bill clinton has some kind of a darlene, i mean, really when i talked to prince to the, the just don't understand what just re someone who has invented the term military and what it was was in finding it was beautifully too well actually invested in giving us the money to establish what you called military as over the risk. so that will give you detour, arise its neighbor

so, i mean, i think hillary clinton actually understood what bill clinton is saying and actually kind of tried to fashion herself in that way, but it still wasn't enough. >> it was the authenticity factor, though, i will say. >> but go ahead >> i'm going to disagree with bill clinton. i think here's here's what i'm looking at. if i look at statistics and demographics, right, and you're looking at this sort of we have this, what, 1.5% popular vote win by donald trump, right now. um, over kamala harris. what does she get she second most votes. right. >> it's not it's not a huge amount. >> it's not a huge amount right. so i think though i think the far right media ecosystem is so much stronger than the left i think there's just so much better at that. and i think that they actually coalesced. i was there i mean, if you're going to run they're coming behind you regardless, right i could i could lick doorknobs and they're going to say, hey that guy's smart, you know. so because they want you to they want you to win. but i think when you look at the demographic shift and i think you're seei

>> bill clinton was. bill clinton was. he's right. because the democrats have lost their mind.eir way. and with this craziness. and he knows it. that's why he's saying that he knows. and yes the answer is yes. it's a better chance for a woman as a republican to win the presidency until they get their house in order. it's it's a mess. and he admitted it. >> yeah. and i think i think it'll be a republican being the first woman president just because i'm being a homer and i'm a republican. i would like to see that. but the second thing is i think it's a cop out to say it was cultural issues that kept kamala out of the white house, because that presumes that she had opinions on the cultural issues and not trying to run away from them. look, michelle obama would have won. that's just a fact. she would have. nikki haley could have won we are a center right nation. and if you go back to world war two and you look at the democratic presidents that did not come into office via assassination, watergate or covid you are left with jfk clinton and barack obama. you need to have an exception

go back to hillary clinton, deplorable, smelly walmart people, remember that?y called us all fascist and nazis, garbage according to joe biden and any woman who would consider donald trump, ones i don't know, a great economy, safety and security around our country, a closed border, peace instead of war around the world, apparently we are weak and stupid. i don't think so, mark cuban. take a look around, you heard from susie lisle, she had that a very nice post, kelly anna conway, the first woman who ever successfully ran a presidential campaign when donald trump won in 2016. by the way, before he is actually politically advantageous for anybody, before people do anything like this, donald trump when he built trump tower hired a woman to do that job. if you go look at the trump organization, the top executives and some of the people who have been with donald trump the longest are women in his company. this whole idea that any of us are being called all of these names is totally ridiculous week you already, with the american want to hear is how will you make my l

and like unveils secretary clinton. and you just saw that hint for just a few seconds where president putin was like, oh, i was not expecting to see her. i did not see her upon arrival. and then, of course, she is she is there. but they did go in to my well room. that was very tight, confining and a little bit dark. we had some up lighting and they came out and they actually did move a bit closer to one another's positions. some key points that they needed to to discuss in that meeting. so, yes, place can really matter to you. you've planned so many of these meetings for very different personalities. i'm going to keep underscoring how different bush and were as presidents to plan for how do i mean i'm just desperate to ask you about the kim jong un. well, how you plan that the historic the first meeting between the president, the united states and this very young autocrat in this hermit kingdom who didn't even leave north korea. and you've got a plan for him, a summit right? well, there definitely used a lot of skills,

and that is what bill clinton said.clinton said if kamala hd done her job vetting these people, laken would still be alive -- and it is pronounced laken, joe biden. if you say you are going to oppose federal action, this is what's going to happen, whether the atf, dea, fbi, any federal law enforcement agency, when they go in with a fugitive task force to go grab people, there is nothing the locals can do. let's just say they decide to call the local chief because the chief is not cooperating to deconflict, all right, fine, you don't want to tip them off, they are coming in, and they are coming and heavy, and they are going to do a really good job, and because they have to go in so heavy because they are not getting cooperation, they are going to probably interview more people than they were targeting, and if you don't want to give us a call from the jail to let us know who you have so we can pick them up, they'll post up right outside of the local jail and interview anybody that comes out of there. that's what's going t

not only that, bill clinton, hillary clinton had a history with the latino community and she was a senator from new york and knew the puerto rican community very well, bill clinton had a history with african-americans, and also with the latino community. it is really different to compare the two because kamala harris does not have that relationship with the latino community and not seen as a person with the same resume as hillary clinton , did not have bill clinton. >> can you foresee a time when latino men would vote in a way that would be make a meaningful difference for a few president of the united states ? >> i hope so, i supported kamala harris, i take the commercial for endorsing her, i was talking to my community to try to get them behind kamala harris. i hope so. i have a daughter, i have a granddaughter, i hope they get to grow up in a country where a woman can be president of the united states . >> latino women still favored kamala harris but my smaller margins than hillary clinton and joe biden. do you think democrats did enough to gain their support? >> i think the democratic

that's what bill clinton said.eir job is vetting these people she would still be alive.wo and if you're going to say should oppose federal action, with thewh dea and fbi any fede aglaw enforcement agency and there's nothing locals can do. and let's say they decided to call the local chief you don'tth want to tip him off fair enoughi they aren, coming in and comingo heavy. they are doing ao a really good job. and they could probablyro interview and pickba up more people than they were targeting. if you don't want to give us aea call from the jail to let us know the pick it up. and with the local cited jail and interview anybody who comes out ofth there. and if they are actually inviting more federal presencet by not cooperating it means more migrants not just terminals butl anybody here illegallyy, will be removed. i wamoved.s a migrant judge andw that trump got a victory i would take my flags get on the first flight to nicaragua. because the other option is 6:00 a.m. ice knocking on your door putting you in a van y

it's interesting because clinton said he deliberately didn't want to do big events.ople, as you say, one-on-one, and he added to that, you know, you don't get anywhere, talking about the shock. the shocking things that are going on. he doesn't say it that way. that's me. the hocking things that are going on. he says you need to move past that. you just need to talk to people at scale. that's kind of what i think made bill clinton one of the great poll tigs of a generation. >> well, yes, that is that. but what makes president clinton one of the greatest politicians in modern presidential history is that something that he writes in his book, and he said later in the interview, actually in the book talk that we did after that interview, he said, if you scratch someone long enough, a real person will emerge. and by that he means you've got to keep talking. talk past your differences. talk about what you have in common. ask questions. listen. eventually, you will get to a point where you find -- you will find the real person. and the person will find you. and that's how y

and my discussion with former president bill clinton. he has a lot to say. >> he's interested in people who are loyal to him 100% of the time no matter what the issue, no matter what the facts, no matter who gets hurt. >> plus, balance of power. republicans succeeded in getting matt gaetz out before they were forced to vote on him in the new congress, but the question remains, will the republican-led senate next year show the same moxie to block any of the other unqualified or patently unfit nominees? i have my doubts, but we'll see what my political panel of susan and bazos michael think about this and a wholes host of other political news this week. i'm jonathan capehart, this is "the saturday show." donald trump is filling much of his cabinet straight from the clown car, and at a much faser pace than in his first administration. by this date in 2016, trump had named just five senior level staff, as of today he's picked more than two dozen top advisors for his next term. late this afternoon trump announced brooke rollins as his pick fo

clue his clinton foundation and the clinton global initiative, which partners business leaders with nonprofitsworldwide. to name a few, a program to help combat hiv and aids in south africa, a massive clean water project in rwanda, and closer to home his foundation helped with everything from the energy saving retrofit of the empire state building in new york to fighting drug overdoses in the heartland, to an upgrade of streetlights in los angeles. they also helped fund construction jobs to help rebuild crumbling infrastructure. >> we raised $16 billion from union pension funds to put people to work. it was the biggest in the country at the time. that's what i'm proud of. because i think people are happy when they do things that actually make things better. >> you clearly are. >> i am. >> reporter: of course, this still makes him happy, too. the president hit the road for the harris/walz ticket in the final weeks of the campaign and says he was disappointed, but not entirely surprised by the result. >> do you think part of the issue is that america is just not ready for a female president? >>

act in the clinton years. after firmly expressing his opposition to reauthorization, helms proposed five amendments to the reauthorization bill in july of 1995. two of these dealt with budgetary concerns, one pertaining to spousal notification protocols in the event of a positive hiv test, and another one sought to make hiv and a.i.d.s. training programs optional for federal employees. lastly, senate amendment number 1854, building on existing needle exchange and sex education bands that had been on the books since the late '80s, 1980s, stipulated, "no funds authorized to be appropriated under this act may be used to promote or encourage, directly or indirectly, homosexuality, or intravenous drug use." this amendment passed the u.s. senate by a vote of 54-45, although it is explicitly anti- gay message was soft and by a corresponding amendment proposed by two more moderate republican senators, and it was subsequently adopted in the final version of the bill. and the text of that amendment read, "none of the fu

but clinton did not the ban on federal funding. the president decided not to do it for political reasons, shalala noted, alluding to firmly entrenched anti-drug stigmas and the stubborn, mistaken belief that exchange programs encouraged intravenous drug use. after some delays, the reauthorization of the ryan white care act was finalized in 1996. the same year in which the widespread of protease and highly active antiretroviral therapy caused some commentators to premature early declare the end of aids. andrew sullivan for acknowledged in november 1996 that, quote, many americans, blacks and latinos will still die of aids related causes. while nevertheless celebrating the fact that the epidemic had entered a less fatal phase as scholar and theorist michael warner lamented in 1999, president bill clinton's, quote, cynical opposition to needle exchange programs, quote, has been made easier by the general sense that aids is over. according see president bill clinton's rhetoric on hiv and aids became increasingly triumphalist. near the

there's something else that you talked to president clinton about. i've heard him talk several times in the past year or so about turning 78 and that made him the longest living man in his family in like a million generations. you asked him whether he thinks about his own mortality. let's listen to that. >> i do not think i would live to be 78, because i didn't know about all of the advance s in heart health, all the things i could do with diet, all of the things that -- now, i would love to be 90 or 100. >> you've got to beat jimmy carter now. >> as long as i can -- >> if he heard that whispered in his ear, he would look behind you. >> if you'll remember, there was that moment at the end of his convention speech in chicago when he said, i don't know how many more conventions i'll get, it made a lot of people think, maybe he was sick or getting too old. that's what that conversation started with. and he said to me toward the end of that bit of the conversation, he said, i know i freaked some out, but i'm fine, other than some problems with my hands.

clinton is the voice of woman empowerment.er] the movie studios say there's no way that i think bill clinton, he's right number one but i think it would be strong conservative woman but at the same time i think he wanted donald trump to win. >> if he has it his way when it comes to presidency, liberal clement will be close but no cigar.
