but one of the reasons i married george bush is he made me laugh. her beloved dog millie the one who wrote the book about life in the white house and donated all proceeds to literacy in the book made over $1 million. george is to say you work all your life, finally you obtain the highest job in our country and maybe the world, and your dog makes more money than you do. [laughter] we were very sad when millie died but thankfully the reactions to millie's death made us smile. i wrote in my book, the outpouring of letters, faxes, flowers, and telephone calls about millie was unbelievable. i love her and i will always remember her. at the first congregational church in kennebunkport they prayed for her on the sunday after her death. one lady wrote she knew the pain we were suffering. she said my husband died last year.

i was part of the party that worked for george bush, both george bushes, actually. went down in april 1989 torque for governor bush. we saw the party needed to change, try to form a new formulation of conservatives the governor called compassionate conservatism. my feeling was, and i think others agreed with me, that we were almost i inevitable that te side of the party we represented would emerge as dominant. i think looking at donald trump, i have to admit i was wrong. i think we were the recessive gene, nonot the dominant gene. in the party has become very comfortable with a white grievance. i saw that on f full display y t night. b book, you have a chapter i think it is chapter eight, the empire's last stand, and you say the trump obsession with immigrants from mexico and central america is motivated by his own racism but it also reflects the knowledge that every new nonwhite voter i in amamerica is a threat to the existence e of the repepublican party. could you elaborate on thahat? >> that is just a fact. if you look at the construction of the republican party

one way i think about that, this is preliminary, george w. bush, i will be fascinated to read robert draper's a book on the iraq war, donald trump the decision to go to iraq was the worst mistake in american history and george w. bush should be impeached for it. he has not and probably will never recover from the iraq war but in summer of 2005 he came to the white house after reading a book on the spanish flu and said his homeland security adviser, i want to plan dealing with the pandemic, wanted soon, comprehensive and gave a speech about it. let's imagine the pandemic had hit. he would have been prepared, he gave that plan to the obama administration who did their pandemic work. sometimes presidents do smart things thinking about the future, being long-term oriented, not just short-term for which they get no credit because disaster never happened. how do we way that. it is not the same category as going to war in iraq but when we think about presidencies, presidents in their time. you evaluate a president as you did in africa helping to diminish

george bush and donald trump in the way they conducted themselves. first was a classy man, mostly traditional politician, and didn't demonize people the way this president does, and polarize to the extent, all elections are polarizes. but there's good comparison between bill clinton and george bush in this one when you look at president trump's polling. i have to agree that i think our polling may be today bit of an outlier, all the polls together. but i still think whether you're donald trump or joe biden, you need to run as if you're 20 points behind in the race. one, you never know. and i do have to say in this particular race, chris, i do not think you should underestimate the dislike of this particular president. people going out to vote not necessarily for joe biden, but against donald trump considering the situation we're in now with the intersection of race, covid and politics, i think many more people are going to be voting at least democrats against donald trump rather than for joe biden. >> he agrees, but you both know, elections are more

and george bush is from new england or texas. he has, you know, less ties to new england than he does to any prep school -- >> you mean iowa. >> iowa, yeah. less ties to iowa than any prep school in new england. and so he beats reagan. and this is -- that night tom pettitte of nbc goes on national television and says we have just witnessed the political funeral of ronald reagan. reagan is out. that's it. and five weeks later he scores an enormous comeback in the new hampshire primary. and we all remember the debate the famous national debate, i'm paying for this microphone, mr. green, even though his name was breen, reagan said green. and that begins -- that starts the beginning of his comeback against bush. but he goes to detroit. the party still divided and so he needs to pick bush to unify the party as they always have. nixon picks lodge. eisenhower picks nixon. nixon picks agnew, in order to unify the party. that was the ticket splitting that both parties practiced to perfection in the '40s, '50s and '60s and into the '70s an

so he doesn't take the george h.w. bushchallenge seriously and he ends up lying the iowa caucuses in guy january of 1980 which was a stunning, stunning upset to the political world. it was enormous, i was huge. reagan had been a radio broadcaster in iowa all through the thirties. he was from nearby illinois. he's a local hero. george bush is for new england in texas. he has lost ties to new england attorney prep school to iowa than any prep school in doing. so he beats reagan. that night, time of nemesio zone asheville television and says we have just witnessed the political funeral around. reagan reagan is out. that's it. five weeks later, he scores an enormous come back in the new hampshire primary and we all remember the famous national debate, paying for this microphone, mr. green, even though his name was breen, reagan said green. that begins, that starts the beginning of his come back against bush. but he goes to detroit, the party still divided and so he needs to pick bush to unify the party as they always have. nixo

the war on drugs was george h.w. bush the first bush administration. >> i could go on and defend george h.w. bush for the next 30 minutes as well, but george w. bush, i want to say quickly, and i'm just going to use this excuse to say something nice about george w. bush because his people think i'm always too negative. george w. bush, if you don't know about it, look it up. yes, he screwed up in iraq horribly and took the country along in a tragic war, 4,500 americans killed in a war that never should have happened and hurt u.s. foreign policy. i don't think enough americans know, two things can be true at the same time, by the way. he did that and he had revolutionary leadership for aids in africa, which studies have suggested, if you look at the numbers, saved 13 million lives in africa. so there's my excuse to say something nice about george w. bush. and tiffany cross, thank you. please come back because you gave me a chance to say something nice about somebody i have wanted to say something nice about for a long time.

and he's already beaten george bush once.ause] so, when it comes right down to it, this election is a contest between those who are satisfied with what they have and those who know we can do better. that's what this election is really all about. it's about the american dream. those who want to keep it for the few and those who know it must be nurtured and passed along.

that was his job tonight to make people feel comfortable so he's done this speech this kind of george bush speech not george w. george bush his father you know his inauguration speech famously i saw a kind gentle america sense about going into seriousness about defeating bad guys in the middle east is this rose tinted vision. but specifically on a current issue do you get the sense that the democrats are losing the narrative here to the republicans when it comes to quote law and order because the republican line is clear it's law and order it's law and order where is biden's line and comma harris's line on the trouble that we're seeing in real time day after day on american streets their line is it's not just law and order there are so many other issues there but the traction they seem to be losing that that grasp when it comes to explaining what they think the issue is to the voters. i think joe biden and comolli harris have made it that that these ongoing deaths particularly of black men but not only back men briana taylor and others that have gone on and on have reached a breaking point

i look bac to 2000 with governor george w. bushnd his debates with the then senator al gorerom tennessee. this he tied change in our direction with the debates. the demeanohe, manner in which george w. bush laid out his agenda and the senator laid out his. voters were able to make a stark contrast looking at the gentleman to who would become the next commander-in-chief. joe h bid been here in washington nearly 50 years. the question is, is he part of the swp that trump is trying to drain? or part of the solution donald trump that many democrats believe are at his feet. laura: many americans can start voting by mail in september. how do you see that affecting the tactics here? ro you will see both candidates, the vice president leave his so-called basementnn d t with voters in key battleground states so he can get them to cast a ballot by mail oin person. donald trump is going to be spending time in the upper midwest, wisconsin, michigan, states he needs to win. the fact a lot of the states around the country are going to allow earl

because of the iraq war george bush sr lost because of the recession etc etc right. correct it's more 'd against than for and that's why joe biden looks like an ideal candidate from the democratic standpoint he has a long record in the senate a long legislative record he loses demeanor he's not going to say some crazy things he's. not going to go tweeting every day and i think the public may be saying you know let's return to normalcy if i may be happening and that's that's why the polls are so widespread the irony is joe biden could literally do and say nothing and still win. and he's got the debates and don't sell him short in the debates you know he's been he's been a debate a veteran of many debates in the senate he's a longtime veteran of the game you know people are saying he's going to start are a loser so i wouldn't count on that i think he'd be well briefed and i think it's going to be while watching the sea of trump loses it well you know they say you are a man of your times and right now we are going to some tough times and it's hard to man up well hey gre

bush administration called terror tuesdays. every tuesday the president's national security team would sit down with george w. bush and talk about the terror threats with the country. why don't we come in and do threat thursday. we'll come in and talk about all these other threats he's not spending time on because he's too focused on the border. so the president ended up very ill informed about some of the most serious threats to our country because he didn't, quite frankly, spend the time to focus on those issues or to learn about them. >> cnn national security analyst samantha vinograd joins us now. as someone responsible for briefing president obama, how risky is it for the country when you hear that this president isn't being briefed on threats that dhs officials believe he should be? >> trump's trademark is gross negligence and that's why this allegation is totally credible. the two presidents that i worked for never cross-checked threat strains with campaign needs before paying attention to intelligence. this president takes the opposite approach. he has consistently prioritized political pet projects ov

assistant to president george w. bush, karen fenny, and david chalian. scott, let me start with you tonight because we're just getting this breaking news, more than 20% of senate republicans are not going to be there tonight where president trump, who is the leader of their party, will accept the nomination. i understand there's all sorts of reasons in each individual case. it's a big deal when 20% of your party is not going to show up at your nomination speech. does this look bad for him, scott? >> truthfully, i don't think so. the senate is not in session. they're all back home. a lot of them are doing small events. i heard you discussing with jim, i've seen mitch mcconnell out traveling around visiting rural hospitals to talk about coronavirus. so, i don't -- i would not expect people to get on a plane and fly back to washington to listen to a speech, especially when this is not aytra dish nal convention. most of the speeches have had no crowd at all -- >> scott, you have the majority leader who takes coronavirus
