david, rick, i would love to get you to weigh in on the data we are processing in this election. david, in specific this was , a very close election. if you look at what was happening on the ground in some of these battleground states, these were hard-won electoral votes. i would love for you, david to , weigh in on the efficacy of the trump campaign strategy and rick, i would love for you to talk about the biden campaign strategy on a state-by-state level, if you could, not every state, but how you see the battle landscape in the aftermath. david, why don't you start? david: thanks, alex. there is still a lot of data for us to land -- for us to analyze. it will take months. i will say this was not a particularly close race. they are battleground states for a reason. biden will have a healthy number of electoral votes, the same number trump won by a 2016, but the biden margins in michigan and pennsylvania are much wider. the popular vote, it is not how we elect our president, but the margins are going to be stronger than obama's in 2012, shy of what he had in 2008, so a big number

through a mutual friend, i met david ricks at a dinner., i knew he was a great writer, and he said you should write a book and i would like to help yu do it, but you should write it. i thought, that's wonderful, but i'm no interested. by the end of the dinner, he convinced me. and the biggest thing for me was i thought my life was not interesting enough to write about. i really didn't. but i took it as a challenge, and when i got into it, i realized this was about healing, an it was about -- especially when it comes to the relationship with my father which was very challenging. and we had just made peace before he passed. so there were still issues and things that weren't worked out, but through writing this book -- >> trevor: right. >> -- i was able to back up and see people in my life including myself as a character, and it took that -- it took the personal part off of it, and i began to love my father in a way that i couldn't when he was alive. >> trevor: wow. >> and it just provided a lot of healing and, you know, the beautiful thing i

after we saw the burst of good news in the fight against the coronavirus, eli lilly chairman david ricksut why different treatments may be necessary. >> we are studying what we call passive immunization in setting -- in a setting where you are trying to prevent spread. it is similar to vaccination in a way. when you get a vaccine, we introduce a modified version of a part of a virus. your body recognizes that as foreign and downs its own antibody response. what we are doing is we are giving you the antibody response of someone else trying to getting sake. it is not approved -- to getting sake. it is not approved. we do not have the data yet. if we look at other viruses like ebola, this was the setting where these antibodies made the difference. in the u.s. and around the world, elderly patients are at the highest risk. this would be an important positive event that occurred. >> to build on what tom is discussing, we are trying to asked the question of whether we need a multipronged approach, not just the announcement we heard from pfizer yesterday but also couple many what you are doing

david: it has been a pleasure working with you. that was rick davis our bloomberg political contributor. now, we are going to my colleague who has been reporting on pennsylvania. what put it over the top? democrats cast in this election that overcame the enthusiastic turnout that president trump got on election day. in pennsylvania, donald trump got more votes in 2016 when he surprised the world and one pennsylvania by 44,000 votes. even though he got more votes this time then in 2016, joe biden got more. out hiscular, he turned voting democrats in philadelphia and pittsburgh. democrats have to have strong showing if you're going to win pennsylvania and overcome the republican votes that take place elsewhere in the state. david: president trump issued a statement shortly after the projections were made saying it president-elect hyden will not be the next president and he's going to pursue legal challenges. those tend to center on pennsylvania. can you give us a sense of what those challenges are? >> we were waiting for a press conference to star

david: you know what they say about a foolish consistency. that is rick davis. news organizations may think they have a clear picture of where this presidential election are going, but president trump has a different point of view, and he is putting his trust in the judiciary to give him the victory that he thinks he has already won. to take us through the legal challenges is noah feldman. thank you so much for joining us. give us your assessment of what the legal strategy is. is this a legal strategy or a public relations strategy at this point? noah: it is starting to look more like a public relations strategy than yesterday, when there was a chance of it looking like a legal strategy. the centerpiece would go to the supreme court, as president trump said he wanted to do wednesday morning, and ask it to say that there will be no more counting of votes received in pennsylvania after 8:00 election day. the thing about that, the president may actually win that claim -- it would be a close call -- but it is not clear that that would solve any of his problems. as t
