without george w. bush's appointees to the supreme court , amber nicole thurman would be alive tonight. she would be a healthy, happy mother of her young son, who was forced by george w. bush and donald trump to attend his mother's funeral when i was six years old my mother had the same procedure amber nicole thurman needed to live. my mother had given birth to five children but she kept going. she was trying to have a sister for her only daughter, trying for one more, and she suffered a miscarriage and she routinely had a d&c at a hospital in boston because d&c has nothing to do with abortion. none of the catholic nuns teaching me at my elementary school then that my mother should've not had that procedure. our beloved monsignor brantley know that when mothers and saint brendan's parish had miscarriages that dr. should give me whatever treatment they needed. antiabortion catholic doctors perform that procedure routinely. there was not a single irish catholic politician in boston including the mayor and the d

republican stalwart dick cheney, george w. bush's hawkish vice president, declaring he will vote for kamala harris in november. the announcement made by his daughter, former republican congresswoman liz cheney. >> dick cheney will be voting for kamala harris. [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: the cheneys presented a united front on capitol hill on the one-year anniversary of the january 6th attack. two of just a handful of republicans to mark a moment of silence. today in a statement, dick cheney saying, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than donald trump. he tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. he can never be trusted with power again. as citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our constitution. liz cheney recently announced she, too, is backing harris. her announcement comes just days after john mccain's son, jimmy mccain, a veteran of iraq and afghanistan, announced he's left

george w. bush called his treasury secretary paul o'neill, pablo. the most well-known nickname in the bush white house was one that george w. bush did not come up with and did not like. bush's brain. that is what everyone else in washington called karl rove. the senior advisor in the bush white house who masterminded george w. bush's winning presidential campaigns. early, glowing profiles of karl rove during the bush administration eagerly platformed karl rove's theory that he was building a permanent republican majority in the congress and a permanent republican electoral college hold on the white house. karl rove was repeatedly presented in major media profiles as a visionary republican strategist who was far ahead. all political strategic thinkers in washington in both parties. those profiles were the product of standard groupthink and they all wildly exaggerated karl rove's genius, but what was true was that karl rove was thinking about electoral politics in a more careful and data-driven way than any other republicans. it was also true that karl

continue lisa rice and george w. bush. george w. bush and condoleezza rice both know better. donald trump. they know what he's done to the republican party. they know all that. why do they not? we would have to interview them and ask them directly why they don't speak up and say something in the course of this. my guess is, for condoleezza rice, she likes to wear that green jacket known as the masters in augusta, walk around with all her other buddies. and sort of say and act like she's nonpartisan and just here for america. but at this moment in time, those two who i know are probably to me the most disappointing in leadership in this country. >> yeah. and we don't have time, but we could go on about the rest of that article saying that they're actually counting on vice president harris winning and then stopping her from being able to accomplish anything. thinking that, ah-ha we'll get the house and senate back. that's the most cynical crap. they don't want the country to succeed. they want trump to go away, go away. that's not how it works. matthew dowd, thank you very much

i don't want any democrat is going to change their opinion about donald trump because of what george w bush's, i'm going to even, republicans would change their opinion about donald trump because of what george w bush says, because donald trump has taken over the republican party. but what we do know is that donald trump's own people, his own vice president, his own secretary the stay his only attorney general, his own defense secretary, and chief of staff, his own national security advisers have all condemned him at separate several different times. he's his own, his own, his his niece has called him a racist. his his nephew, he said he used the n word i mean omarosa, his top aides and who he was a racist. everybody who knows this guy who has a position of influence that he has said has had some sort of negative things to say about him is not something that a democratic conspiracy that people who know him best say donald trump is a horrible ahead. >> one point though, do we start to listen to the actual people were supposed to be listening to a the man was elected in 2016, got the most votes

thomas kelly was cms administrator from 2001 to 2004 under george w. bush. lso served under president george w. bush from 1989 to 1993. a private equity investment firm, and they want to thank him for bringing this whole group together. he said i bet i could get everyone together and i so appreciate it. what a great day. mark mcclellan under president george w. bush, just after fda commissioner from 2002 to 2004. he is currently director at duke university. 2013 to 2015 under president barack obama. also under governor tim kane from 2006 to 2010, waiver largest -- one of the largest in legalization hospitals, and occupational health clinics in the state. my family scratched the surface, but let's get into it. first of own, i know i barely need to ask anything. feel free to answer any questions just in your head. i want to focus first briefly on the health of all americans. we know we have secure health inequities even though we spent almost double what other wealthy countries do, and i think we all thought that covering more americans with insurance would be

george w h.w. bush. one knew he had a political objective and that was simply to get saddam out of kuwait. he was criticized, as was colin powell, as you remember bitterly, that we had saddam on the run, choke him by the throat, go into baghdad and. they said, if we go into baghdad, we'll own it. that was not part of the un resolution. it was part of the international coalition. on the other hand, bush, too, had a much more accepting of political goal to make iraq into democracy. now, as chad has pointed out, they do have free elections now, but the cost was ghastly in order to get there because we really didn't understand the internal and dynamics of of iran. great. ambassador neumann, we were discussing in the green room that you're career started as a soldier in ended as a diplomat as featured in the book in the chapters on on iraq and afghanistan. from your experience, what are the lessons learned of what makes successful diplomacy and where does it fail and how might you apply those lessons to where

bush, george w. bush's declaration of the global war on terror has left hundreds of thousands, if not more killed in countries such as yemen, syria, libya and so on. the us was... to fund terrorism through its own campaign, it's smear campaign against islam, against what it called the global war on terror, when it in fact was not only funding it, but it was fueling it, it was using the american weakness at the time, it was using the overwhelming sensation of weakness in order to mobilize the american public against muslims both in the us and outside the us. all right, well stay with me, batul, i mean after the 911. attacks, then us president george w. bush declared the u.s. war in terror, do you think that washington could have invaded the countries that it did without the 9/11 pretext? right, it definitely would have found another pretext, but essentially the war of terror was within the quote and quote new middle east strategy that was put forward by the evangelical uh right-wing uh within uh george uh bu

george were bush should really say he's voting for kamala harris. >> if george w. ush care about conservative they should vote for kamala harris. it shouldn't be a hard choice for you. if you're doing to preserve opportunity to have a kemp or to have somebody like that, tell yourself that and do it. >> i think that's a good place to stop. >> please give these guys a big hand. thank you very much.

it was flocks, who at that time was supporting policies of their republican president george w bush. i think if that were to happen today, perhaps folks would have a slightly different perspective. but i think that shows here that the, the end of the day american corporate media are pursuing that own corporate or sometimes national interest. both have very little to do with the, the actual covering of the facts on the ground as they, you know, play out, always controlling the narrative. fine. well, it's not the controlling. i think uh for many of them its team is a huge surprise that somebody can not only oh for alternative viewpoint, those are 2 was doing at the time, but even have dots to stick to that mean because uh that was, i remember that that was the 1st experience of the warren and the raf that the western colleagues started to show it to windsors despite the fact that we were there on the ground in nothing the comfortable studios. they were like these. i would, they should have him being sort of a on pigeons payroll or put in a simple size or as if that somehow matters to w

the pole had george h. w bush. 17 points behind his opponent. mike dukakis, the post as the pundits were saying, no one can overcome this deficit at the same time. it's just the general like in that wouldn't be so. so at the moment, so this type of polls have them that connect your convince that the polls don't, don't know what they're talking about. the polls unpredicted documents, ok. the projector and the arrow margin is tells you they tell you the are margins plus and minus about 3 percent, but that's pure a statistical error. what they don't tell you is there is a very large non statistical error on top of that. okay? people don't respond, they like they haven't focused, no one's voted yet. so they have to guess the likely voters to the polls are so widely in the era that you can't use them. given that the, the wealth of your experience, when you see the strength of each of these kinds of it's going into this debate. again, i'll ask the question, it's another the same question. uh, my system. the keys to the white house does not depend upon

or remember george w bush making a joke. look around his office for weapons of mass destruction like opening desk drawers cabinets, hulu. not here is saddam hussein, who is definitely a dictator from the beginning. people who are happy to be free. as a sniper, people are just trying to hosp blobs, so white. it's hard to see what they're holding or carrying. i've killed people, planning bombs and bearing the ambush or troops. but i've also killed people changing their tire on their car. is they really anyone who wouldn't fight for the sake of the country? that's impossible. the us described operations in iraq as a war justified under international law and deployed hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the region on deceitful pretences. how has that affected those who were put on the front lines risking their lives for a lie to the bill is 10 with not that's not. how do we efficient during the war in 2003, around the middle to end of march? i went to my uncle's house because the roads were close to each other. it strikes every

the biggest such boost in nbc news polling since george w. bush's surge after 9/11. still, trump leads harris by eight points on handling what voters said was their most important issue, inflation and rising costs. >> if you cast your vote for kamala harris, you're voting for four more years of brutal job losses, higher taxes, surging prices. >> reporter: trump today visiting a grocery store in pennsylvania. >> you talk to the people right here that are paying 30%, 40%, 50% more for their groceries, which i think i can say is right. am i right? >> yeah. >> it's a disgrace. >> reporter: inflation recently dropped to 2 1/2%. though prices have risen nearly 20% since president biden and harris took office four years ago. harris planning an economic speech later this week. >> i believe in what we can create in terms of opportunities for the american people. i've named it an opportunity economy. >> reporter: and pressuring trump to debate her a second time. which he is now refusing to do. >> the voters of america deserve to hear the conversations that i think we should be

i remember george w bush making a joke. look around his office for weapons of mass destruction like opening desk drawers and cabinets who is not here. saddam hussein, who is definitely a dictator from the beginning, people weren't happy to be free. as a sniper, people are just trying to hosp blobs so white. it's hard to see what they're holding or carrying as killed people, planning bombs and bearing the ambush or troops. but i've also killed people changing their tire on their car. is that really anyone who's wouldn't fight for the sake of the country? that's impossible. the us described operations in iraq as a war, justified under international law and deployed hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the region on deceitful pretences. how has that affected those who were put on the front lines to risking their lives for a lie to get to know what it was, i found them eating rice and dates. there was no place to get food or bridge in the morning. nothing was available. i couldn't walk who debacle. show what was the push him. i

this was the same sort of assumption that afflicted him, george w. bush, and barack obama. bush looked into putin's soul. obama had a reset strategy. both of them got profoundly disappointed. this guy is the best liar, the best deceiver in the world, and he will tell you he feels surrounded, he has security concerns. what i have tried to convey to president trump, and i tell stories about this in the book that led to strong decisions by president trump, the only thing that provokes putin is the perception of weakness. and so he was persuaded by that. but of course he could fall back into that trap. you have seen him on the campaign trail, a lot of it is who is the last person who talks to him. so he's so disruptive at times, and i tell many stories about this, that he disrupts himself, and he becomes the antagonist in his own story. christian: with that story of how he approached putin in mind, let me ask you about the way they now are looking to approach the ukraine issue. we have had a plan from j.d. vance, he's outlined what he thinks the endgame should be. he said he thi

the supreme court, thanks to george w. bush and donald trump, so that little girls raped by their fathers other uncles or their babysitters or the stepfathers can be abused by republican men in the state legislatures and republican governors because yes, it is indeed child abuse when republican men put up qualifying roadblocks that are impossible to get through for a 10-year-old girl to have an abortion to relieve that girl of her to baby. no one in the republican party apologized to the 10-year-old girl that had to leave ohio to get an abortion. there are republicans who want every rape baby to be born no matter what the victim of that rape wants or needs to survive. the exceptions are alive. the republican legislatures who write those exceptions in their abortion bands are lying in legislative language. they are abusers of rape victims second only to the rapist s themselves. they are abusers of victims and abusers of mothers who try to cling to life in hospital beds where republican politicians have removed the healing tools

but if you're george w. bushd up on stage and you say, there's something new called migrant crime. george w. bush ran a campaign famously, as joe knows, where he said, family values do not stop at the rio grande. he was trying to reorient his party around a different approach when it came to migration and, frankly, the hispanic community. for george w. bush to, i think, see what donald trump is doing, which is effectively make his entire campaign about demagoguing immigrants, and stay silent, i think has to be difficult. i know why he wants to stay out of it, but i think it's got to be tough for the former president, given where his heart is on those kinds of issues, to stay out of this game. because, again, that is the centerpiece of the campaign. haitians are eating dogs in an american city. all the crime is being caused by migrants. nevermind the facts. that's the centerpiece of the trump campaign and the gop campaign this fall, is bashing immigrants. you know, that's not what those folks signed up for in aust

s. abraham lincoln, president george w bush declared the official end of the war in iraq. but the real war had only just begun so i look forward to a rock, january 2004. here in this massive convoy, a wind up all the way across the desert on this highway and crossed into a rock. the kids seemed to be living on the side of the road. a group of them were yelling, you know, george bush, number one, usa, number one usa number one. and we drove past them. and then they switched to given us the middle finger and cursing at us and throwing rocks. and i was like, wow, like and after encountering more and more rockies headed to the north, even just that 1st day it was clear that we weren't, we're being seen as liberators. and, you know, save yours and people who were there to help. we are seen as more of the problem of the war turned into a longer occupation after the dissolution of the rocky army in may. 2003, militias formed in the same year to wage an asymmetric war against the us. starting in october 2004. these aren't the groups included. i'll tell you the any rock the take it

thomas kelly to my left was cns administered 2001-2004 under president george w. bush. he also served as deputy director of office of management and budget under president george w. bush 1989-1983. general partner in healthcare group at anderson and stowe. a private equity investment firm. i thank tom for bringing the group together. times that i bet i could get everyone together. i appreciate it. what a great day. mark mcclellan was cns administered 2004-2006 under george w. bush after serving as fda commissioner in 2002-2040. he's currently the director of the robert merkel center for health policy and margolis professor of business and medicine at duke university. marilyn was cns administered 2013-15 under president barack obama and served as secretary of health and human resources under governor tim kane 2006-2010. marilyn is currently director of select medical, one of the largest providers of critical illness recovery inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation centers and health clinics. i need to shout out to that. i barely scratched the surface

this did not keep george w. bushaying to john lewis let's work together on reauthorizing the voting rights act but lewis is the one who bought into this as was clyburn. so we have to have leaders who say let's put some of the politics asidehe and look at wht is best for the country and set the tone from the top. >> i would point out john kerry conceded the election al gore conceded the election. that is the difference here. when people speak it is a fundamental need to yield to the will of the people. there's house the democrats. >> they tell you they went over to him the g election. >> the point is the candidate conceded al gore presided over the vote of the certification of the vote. we need that from our leaders. >> what are you worried could happen iff donald trump loses this election? is it the worst? like snow because of this time around everyone it will be forewarned and forearmed. there is no way there's going to be -- mcdavid designated januarl meet to receive the results of the electric college is a nationa

bush, george w. bush declaration of the global war on terror has left hundreds of thousands, if not more killed in countries such as yemen, syria, libya and so on. the us was able to fund terrorism through its own campaign, it's smear campaign against islam, against what it called the global war on terror, when it in fact was not only funding it, but it was fueling it, it was using the american weakness at the time, it was using the overwhelming sensation of weakness in order to mobilize the american public against muslims both in the us and outside the us. all right, well stay with me, batul, i mean after the 911 attacks... the then us president george w. bush declared the u.s. war in terror, do you think that washington could have invaded the countries that it did without the 911 pretext? right, it definitely would have found another pretext, but essentially the war of terror was within the quote and quote new middle east uh strategy that was put forward by the evangelical uh right-wing uh within uh geo

i think george w. bushyone knows, that he wants kamala harris to win. it's not about ideology. i think george bush is more conservative than kamala harris. i know i am. but if you believe that donald trump is not fit to be a president, i think you have that obligation. i suspect that's where bush is. >> i want to get your quick take on what's happening with the issue in springfield, ohio. talk about a microcosm for trumpism maybe. the negativist policies, the disinformation, the conservative media ecosystem amplifying these falsehoods. what is your take on why trump is pushing this stuff about pets being eaten? also, why, i think more importantly, voters feel animated on the republican side to respond to it? >> yeah, sam, look, on one hand, this is to be expected. my only surprise is that this didn't come out in mid october instead of september, right? it feels like an october kind of crazy story. but, look, this is in keeping with the maga right. we had questioning winston churchill recently. was he the vi

senior vice president obama david axelrod and karl rove a former senior advisor to the president george w. bush sat down to talk about the 20.4 presidential race. some of the topics include political polarization, the role the role of leadership in politics and the rise of political violence in the u.s. this is part of the atlantic festival. >> enthusiastic bunch. >> i like it how's everyone doing? good? [applause] >> so my guess here we know, david axelrod, karl rove two of the most really defining leading political strategist of the respective parties of their time, and so grateful that you both here to talk about this important election. but distally correction we take this conversation by guest my first question would be what is keeping you up at night about this race? what you think about? >> every single damn thing. [laughing] i mean the thing that is, it is an unpredictable race. mistakes are so large but it is as close as can be. we're talking before about these public polls bold which ar the place and they play with peoples emotions. we can't lose, we can't win. but the truth is it's v

and he pointed to the new year's day 2013 coming extension of most of the expiring george w. bush cuts at 2001, and 2003 and if it is literally not changing tax policy, just tell you whether president of congress has said is. the obama administration by the way, accepted the current policy principal articulated by mr. crapo. in big hat tip to my good friends scott e-mailed me this morning, and the story this morning and so i'm not referring to the left because the spring dynamics corp. and just referring to this legislative issue, but whether the current policy has any effect on deficits and mr. crapo said that it does not point of all of this would be to do gate cbo, or joint tax committee estimates up for trillion dollars more than so-called bus revenues they would negate it and meanwhile kamala harris is reportedly, about to come out with her third new economic plan nestling three in two months candidacy, as grady trimble suggested the tax foundation's truck price at her for trillion intact sizes punishing the american economy nearly 800,000 job loss pretty mr. trump's tax-cut

protection for george w bush after the iraq war, when there were a lot of terror threats, of course, ited states and against, personally against george w bush. but also barack obama, also, as we've already been talking about, the potential target of racially motivated attacks. bill, you are exactly the right person to talk to. what an extraordinary career you've had. uh, i'm a pretty humble guy. you're embarrassing me there a little bit. but, um, yeah, i mean, it is what it is. i, uh, great experience. the secret service is an incredible job. you know, it takes a toll on your personal life. you're gone 150, 200 days a year sometimes. and you live by somebody else's schedule. but an amazing experience. i got to see and do things that, you know, you either dream about as a kid or you see in movies. and you spend a lot of time... you're describing the schedule of a broadcastjournalist trying to cover an election campaign, that's for sure. 0k. we want to try and get into all of your experience, obviously, and learn what we can about the secret service. butjust in headline terms, to start

texa required wall street firms to be largely bailed out and george w. bush didn't like that idea but he did not have a better plan and the plan did work it was something george w bush might have fueled more populism because people did not think it was a good idea to help out the bankers in new york . had we not done so, the economy would've had a much bigger problem. most people did not focus on that. >> david rubenstein, you are ind your element with this book, the highest calling. let me plug again i love your podcasts for the ages. thank you so much for your time. >>> a lot happened with donald trump and his media stock on friday, the ups and downs and why they have trump angry. that is ahead in the next hour. >> ♪ ♪ circle good day to you from world headquarters in new york. welcome tos alex witt reports. we begin with the race for the white house. 52 days ceto election day. kamala harris is attending events in washington, d.c. today while former president donald trump is in las vegas in person early voting begins monday in pennsylvania. n one party offi

and barack 0bama and george w. busho cares about his people, how did that work? president 0bama had a reset strategy and both of them got to probe found the disappointed and i would say, this guy is the best liar and he would say that he feels surrounded and that he is security concerns but what i try to convey to president trump and told some stories about this in the book that led to some strong decisions by president trump, the only thing that provokes putin is the perception of weakness and so, he was persuaded by that and of course, he would fall back into the trap a resume of the campaign trail, a lot of it is who is the last person he talks to? and so, he is so disruptive at times i tell many stories about this that he describes himself and he becomes the antagonist in his own story. so come over that story of how your approached vladimir putin in mind, what about the way they now look to approach the ukraine issue. we had a plan fromjd vance ukraine issue. we had a plan from jd vance and he has outlined what he

congressman, secretary of defense under george h bush, vice president to george w bush and when george w bush announced cheney as his running mate in the year 2000, this was the debate that was ripping through washington conservatives applauded his choice of cheney, one of their own, as his running mate, democrats attack george w bush is running mate for being conservative. dick cheney too far to the right for most americans i should note cheney himself never shied away from that description i supported certainly i do have a conservative record, but i'm proud of tonight, the harris campaign is responding. >> they say that the vice president is proud to have dick cheney's support. i political sources are here tonight to talk about that. brian stelter, van jones, and scott jennings who served in the bush cheney administration. so scott, what does it say about donald trump, but about your party the georgia we bush's vice president, the epitome of the republican party for decades is now actively endorsing a democrat for president not only did i serve in the white house, i worked on both of

endorsing kamala harris for president on the list, george hw bush's cia and fbi director william webster and director of national intelligence under george w bush, john negroponte. and with me now is another person on that list, sean o'keefe, who was secretary of the navy under george hw bush, nasa administrator under george w bush, any held about 18,000 other jobs over the last 30 years secretary, thank you so much for being with me this morning. so why why do you put your name on this list thank you, john, pleasure to be with you. >> i think this was a choice between choosing democracy over choosing chaos with the idea of a reduction of a trump presidency was just more than i think anybody on that lives could stand in the notion really of advancing an advocacy for a candidate like vice president harris, who believes in democracy will protect the values that make that essential is what this was all about. >> do you think there's any risk because j.d. vance is out there saying that people saying that trump is a threat to democracy, its language like that that may have contributed to the assassination attempts on donald trump i think, you k

served in white house is our chief of staff of for the defense secretary before he was picked by george w bush. so it varies in stature and important but, but tamela harris, the whole thing, this is not a precedent setting move. let's pray. otherwise, democracy is over and it will be at the hands of the democrats, if i'm just trying to figure out if you're actually trying to praise george w bush to dick cheney their names, not normally. i hear you actually speak positively of. so it's interesting, you said in this case, what was the grubby task before they did a whole bunch of things before that that's why they were selected by their candidates who maybe felt they needed their guidance in their help. i mean, right. you know, joe biden was famous as vice president for telling brock obama a don't kill, but oh, so i'm a bit lot. i mean that's, that's what he's famous for. what was interesting, could you point out different things, abraham, do you think all presents utilize their vice president as they should? or should they actually expect more of them to just being kind of like title holders? ye

. >> the former president george w. bush has no plan to endorse anyone for president this year. president bush retired from presidential politics years ago. what do you make of what? >> i'm not sure where that comes from. but i don't know that is even necessary. right? you have dick cheney and liz cheney defending the shield. that is in my view, that is kind of what needed to happen. you needed prominent republicans to defend the shield. i would love to see them do a rally to try to help. but they are not going to do that to get democrats out because they are still republicans. it it creates a permission structure. it gives voters who may have been nikki haley voters who may have otherwise stayed home might go cast this ballot. if george w. bush does endorse, i don't know if he will admit that. but it is important to be more additive in your coalition as opposed to donald trump who is always about substraction. >> am i wrong? >> i think he should do the bold thing right now. why step out? but i wonder is he seen as the republican standard there? or is he like so what i'm done. so

i mean, since the george w. bushays, you have had cohorts of republicans that have migrated out and some of them have migrated over the democratic party. it's also true that the democratic party has changed. you've had a lot of working class voters, union members, and others who migrated over to the republican party. so you have had some across pollenation, some shifting coalitions. and what i would simply say is that cracks have called dick cheney a war criminal for 20 years. and now all of a sudden they're clapping like seals to get his endorsement. this does not strike me as people who are interested in listening to your conservative viewpoints. they are hungry for power they will take dick cheney's endorsement today, but believe you me in their hearts, they wouldn't want to go at that dinner with dick cheney, let alone have him have any influence over the next government. and i'd doubt that he would ban any last thoughts. >> well, i mean, the feeling is probably mutual. give you a sense of what a big threat donal

george w. bush tax cuts in 2001 and 2003 and this was accepted and accepted by president obama and his crew and there was no fiscal clip and that was the interesting part and not saying the laffer curve won't work, but it's a new wrinkle saying it's going to get the trump tax cuts and it's over with new jobs and at a minute mall. this is 800,000. what do you think. >> this is even going with baseball and the static numbers you're talking about it and we win and we win. that's byron, your comments were just spectacular and right on it and everything you took and everything i was going to say and going for me. you've got to go perfectly right. it was just terrific. did you hear him carefully, larry. going for that is like pushing buttons and going for that and the dog jumps up and it's just fantastic and that's the i've seen going out there for a long time. i don't think enough has been given and the tax foundation of kamala harris tax hikes $4 trillion worth of tax hikes would not lose this close to

one of the stark reminders that led to this. >> his father grew up in connecticut as a texan, george w. bushness school got more comfortable being part of west texas. he felt the bailout proposed by been burning can hank paulson was something in midland texas, the largest investment banks, he felt he had to do it to keep the economy alive but when you are president of the united states you do things you never thought you would do. why would somebody want to be president? i try to give people a sense why the presidency is important? since woodrow wilson went to paris to negotiate the agreement about world war i the president has been the most import in person in the world. we have 7 billion people in the world but the president is the most important person, he or she may be in the future can make decisions that will affect everybody. when people run for president, think of what happened to lyndon johnson, gerald ford couldn't get reelected, ronald reagan, george herbert walker bush couldn't get reelected and so forth. a great job but a lot of challenges to it. a lot of people don't vote. 160

in the wavering and agonizing uncertainty of keeping silent, the former president , republican george w. bush, prudently decided not to speak out about which candidate he is going to support, especially since trump, if he wins, promises to jail everyone who will participate in falsifying the election results. he posted a post with threats to politicians, lawyers, officials and even sponsors on his social networks, you need to be ready to everything. are you ready, madam vice president? ready, as bookmakers claim, the number of bets on the outcome of the presidential elections is now even greater than sporting events, the amount of the prize fund is already an eight-digit number. the upcoming debates are no exception, they are betting on everything from what color suits the candidates will wear, whether they will shake hands, to which of them will be the first to start lying or start shouting. and despite the results of opinion polls, bookmakers give victory in the debates, in the elections. to donald trump. dmitry melnikov and pavel kostrikov, news from washington. vladimir putin today sent a
