the other thing is don't rip dick cheney. if you are michael moore you can rip dick cheney.k cheney was are secretary of defense, vice president, did he not get rich off the iraq war. leave that to democrats to make up some fiction. along the way, if you want to make your policies, don't rip -- there is no treason go back and just parrot some hate talking points of the democratic party towards the previous administrations or the prior previous administrations. i just think it was crisp, it was quick. they wanted them to attack each other. they wanted to make sure the moderators they weren't attacking joe biden. >> ainsley: let's hear some of the highlights. some of the things we are talking about here on the set. >> do you want a leader from a different generation who is going to put this country first, or do you want dick cheney in 3-inch heels. >> mr. rams. >> two of them on stage tonight. >> i would first like to say they are five inch heels and i don't wear them unless you can run in them. >> we got two of you on stage. >> such a thing that i will say is i wear heels. th

dick cheney and george bush did lead us to war, racked up trillions in iraq and afghanistan.ds went to die and did not advance american interest. i am keen to make sure we don't make the same mistakes again. declare independence from china, protect our own homeland instead of somebody else's border halfway around the world. i believe i'm the only person on that stage representing that view. >> rachel: that is what i noticed, you are only one with nonneo-con view. when on the trail, what are people telling you? are you seeing a certain age group is in support of you and other side isn't? you say it is generational. >> i think there is particular support amongst young people, millennials who have been on the receiving end of a lot of -- we are as close to world war iii as we have ever been. if we enter world war iii, it is danger for americans in our home land, we can't lull ourselves into submission. entering wars in places like ukraine increase risk of that. one thing i noticed, strong on that issue. now they are tip toeing back. that has not -- exactly. versus first few mont

you remember the time when dick cheney was enemy number one.ple felt opposition to the war in iraq and the policies he supported, for good reason, and now you have this depiction by his daughter in this book of him joining her on the floor of the capital to recognize the anniversary of january 6th, being shocked there weren't other republicans there, and really praising her -- she is his daughter -- for standing up. and that tells you a lot about how the republican party has changed and moved over the course of time. then of course you mentioned this already, but the fox piece of course should stick out to people, because it's consistent with what we've seen in the reporting from the dominion lawsuit, where brian killmead clearly knows better. he's saying he agrees with and acknowledges what trump said about violating the oath of the constitution, and then leans into politics. so that tells you one of the biggest mechanisms of getting politics out. that was just one of the excerpts. there's probably more we're going to see from this book. >> li
