the morals of men. >> there was an overriding fear among some conservatives, and goldwater, that thel rights was federal overreach, that it was big government. and this is a blemish on george h.w. bush's record, because he supported goldwater in that move. >> when george bush decided to reject the civil rights act of 1964, it showed that he was willing to reject the principles he'd grown up with for the sake of political gain. >> it's clear that george bush is more of a political animal than people make out. everybody talks about yale and a blue blood and a war hero. but he was a raw, political, machiavellian monster in his own way. bush is drinking the barry goldwater kool-aid. >> you know, it's a conservative's dream to run against ralph yarborough for the united states senate. his extreme liberal views make him an open target, and his cynical, vote-grabbing tactics leave his position indefensible. >> but a majority of americans support lyndon johnson's liberal platform of social will tair and civil rights. >> barry goldwater is absolutely trounced by lyndon johnson in 1964. largel

the goldwater rule was instituted for -- during a presidential election, right? because people were -- psychologists, what, were coming out and analyzing goldwater? >> yeah. i mean, over 2,000 psychiatrists came out in "fact" magazine and they analyzed goldwater. they said he had all kinds of issues based on supposed potty training problems. you know, cold war paranoia, and he ended up suing "fact" magazine and he won. and the american psychiatric association was so embarrassed by this that they instituted the goldwater rule which says that you shouldn't diagnose someone unless they're under your care, unless you met with them specifically. >> right. >> so i think that really did keep a lot of mental health professionals quiet for a while. this professional obligation. then about a year or two ago, there started to be this tipping point where people said, well, wait a second, as mental health professionals, we also have a duty to warn. so which duty out -- you know, which duty wins out? and, you know, over 70,000 signed a petition that donald trump is mentally il

kind of you needed 34 to stay in office in a senate trial, and goldwater said, mr. votes. one of them is not mine. and talk -- >> rough. >> yes, rough. stuck it to him. the next night nixon announced he was resigning. >> that's another one of your books, "the final days." a hell of a book. anyway, over the past 24 hours democrats have spoke with one voice in calling for the mueller report to be released in full. let's watch. >> the entire unfiltered report as well as the evidence underlying that report must be made available to congress and to the american people. >> the mueller report must be made public for a full accounting. >> let's have the president urge the attorney general to release the report in its totality to the american people. >> i think the american people deserve to see the report itself, not simply the attorney general's summary of it. >> we need the mueller report and the documentation released so that the public can make a determination. >> obviously we really need to see mr. mueller's report. >> we will be pushing in every direction to make sure

so a number of prominent republicans from the southwest in the 1960's, barry goldwater, the arizona conservative, john tower, a republican senator from texas, and ronald reagan, made strong it feels to mexican-americans on the basis of his sense of racial victimization and that they have legitimate concerns around discrimination and inclusion in the democratic party and they offered, republicans did, a chance to hold out the prospect of a better deal from republicans. to some degree, putting african-americans in their place. by the time of richard nixon, republicans were in office when nixon was sworn in and nixon had to figure out what am i going to do for these people that we spent the 1960's saying we would do much better for you. republicans maintained a certain element of racial polarization, that is they pitted mexican-americans, especially, and african-americans in context with one another. they also added more positive programs for the initiation of affirmative-action programs in the federal civil service to provide new levels of access to white-collar employment. primarily for mexican-a

he tapped the phones of his political opponent, who barry goldwater.ow what goldwater was planning because they had his headquarters bugged. they knew what was going on, too. i was told you what's interesting about all this, sean. the media didn't give a. you talk about abuse of power, these are abuses of power, now i want to bring her to present day. these are the practices of democratic administrations. you might ask me, what about nixon? dixon did use the iraq's, he picked up the practices of lyndon johnson and kennedy. they never against johnson and kennedy. so one of the impeachment charges against nixon had to do with using the irs. of course, nixon was thinking, they did it before me. it didn't matter. "the washington post," the same "washington post," the same bed bradley hood access to certain internal revenue information and fbi files as a result of kennedy, they went after him. why am i bringing all this up? barack obama, barack obama, the irs was used to go after the tea party. they viewed that the party as a threat. we've never got to the

i don't think we're in a position where -- we all talk about the goldwater moment where hugh scott andwent down. but that was so late. it was the 6th of august and nixon left on the 8th and 9th of august. i think it's going to be -- joyce was just saying this. i think it's going to be all of us. it's a stress test for citizenship. and are we -- are republicans, the party that gets a lion's share it seems to me for victory in the cold war, which will upset democrats, but i think that republican presidents and ultimately reagan and bush were so essential there. started by truman and conducted by all of them. but republicans built a significant presidential governing coalition on projecting power against the soviet union. and standing against totalitarianism. they have to recover that tradition and think about what the facts tell them. you know, reagan used to say -- i think that first speech in 1964 for barry goldwater, right before the election, now just known as the speech. he said the problem with liberals is not that they don't know but just so much they think they know that isn't so

those conservative principles from buckley, goldwater guided the gop for decades.se of george w. bush's presidency, the iraq war, the economic collapse, many republican leaders tell me there was a vacuum, an opening for populism, and nationalism to take its grip, and you add in the personality-driven politics of president trump, and you have now him dominating that party. >> that's right. free trade was another thing they believed. anyway, during michael cohen's testimony last week, many republicans in the oversight committee of the house focused fiercely on anybody when they attacked anybody, including cohen, who attacked their guy, the perceived enemies of the president, of course, rather than defending the president. >> i want everyone in this room to think about this. the first announced witness for the 116th congress is a guy who is going to prison in two months for lying to congress. michael cohen, fraudster, cheat, convicted felon, and in two months a federal inmate. >> he's going to prison to lying for congress and he's the star witness to congress. >> ther

but goldwater, in 1964, his loss puts an end to the conservative movement. but the events of the late 1960's going into the 1970's will provide more fodder for the republican party. kevin phillips in 1969 writes a book called "the emerging republican majority." he looks at the sun belt, the white south, blue-collar whites in the north and says, these will be part of a future republican majority and he turns , out to be right. nixon's silence majority speech which we have talked about was part of that. this distrust of institution this anti-authority feeling, , this greater emphasis on individualism will help fuel political conservatism. ironically because of its criticisms of government, of big government. reagan will come into office in 1981 and he will say in his inaugural that the problem is government. government is the problem. this belief that government is not effective, does not do the job well is fueled in part by this distrust of institutions that we see coming from the 1970's. we talked last time of what else is driving the conservatism. prop 13 a

he knew what goldwater was planning, so they knew what was going on there, too. will tell you what's interesting about all this. the media did not give a. these are the practices of democrat administrations, and, they supported the great society and were in love with camelot. but nixon, they hated. so one of the impeachment charges had to do with using the irs. , "the washington post," the same "washington post," the same ben bradley who had access the internal revenue information and fbi files as a result of kenned kennedy, they went after him. but why -- they viewed the tea party as a threat. the white house was immune, and the media generally dismissed it. we have barack obama which unleash the same fbi against a reporter for "the new york times," who he thought was undermining his administration. and they surveilled up to 20 associated press reporters. we have never seen anything like this in modern history. obama was fundamentally transforming america and that is what they wanted. now of course the house democrats, they learned a lot from their democratic pa

few people like libertarian barry goldwater who wants to tinker with the social security state. in 1973, a gallup poll said that 91% of americans believed that tax laws should be changed to ease the burden of moderate and lower income and increase those on higher income and corporations. seeof americans want to taxes on the rich and corporations are raised. the majority of americans still believe that. it just hasn't been part of policy. 1973, 72% of americans agree that the federal government has a responsibility to do away with poverty in this country. although 69% were skeptical thought more, 62% should be done to help the poor. one thing to bear in mind is goalfull employment as a is part of the basic platform of every political party until the 1970's. they don't achieve it but it is a goal. the idea that everyone should have a job. they don't get it. it is there that has the value. it is something that disappears later on. the key to prosperity in this country -- this is true when you right to work platforms and legislation. the key was always the opportunity to work. to ha

reagan was known as taking very goldwater's philosophy of smaller government and constitution and puttingg stories about it. we need a little bit of that today, too. >> when you smile and deliver -- you know something about that. what a great guy. thanks for being with us. appreciate it always. i am staunchly against more taxes in the state of new jersey. i lived there. we told you about this one before but i'm going to repeat it. the proposed rain tax. if you're in a parking lot for your business or large area of land, you are apparently responsible for what washes into the storm drain when it rains. that is now a bona fide state law. the larger your land, the more you'll pay. i kid you not. very soon we're going to see president trump welcome the white house. we will bring that to you when it happens. homeland security chief kristjen nielsen says the border has gone from crisis to emergency to near systemwide meltdown. we are going to talk to the former i.c.e. guy tom holman. he will tell us what a systematic meltdown actually looks like on the ground. we will be back. stuart: for two h

goldwater on the right took control in 1964 of republicans, johnson got 61%.rump won't get 61% but if they go far to the left, donald trump gets elected. >> what's interesting is bernie sanders is doing really well. it looks like he is the front runner. >> and he looks like a moderate compared to some.

there is something called the goldwater rule, a standard in american politics since 1964. diagnosing people from a distance when they're running for office or president of the united states is not something we should do. i think conway's accusations posting descriptions of narcissistic personality disorder wednesday carry more weight because of his wife's proximity with the president long-time. he is trying to be a paul revere. it does look like he said-she said, new reality show pitch once they leave the office seem very serious. >> and hearing from kellyanne conway herself uncomfortably in the driveway of the white house. >> clearly, it's her job to say the party line. it is clearly not his job and some interpersonal risk to be as outspoken as he has. >> we are going to hear from president trump later today. he will face questions from reporters standing side by side with brazilian strongman. he will face questions whether he believes white spraems is a let the around the world. supremacy. >> he has been reluctant to call that out in the same way the same standard the pr

he has to campaign against goldwater, and then in 1965, which is basically where i am up to now, he isassing an astonishing display of legislative genius to get this stuff through congress. the voting rights act, medicare, medicaid, headstart, the war on poverty, 70 separate education bills, and at the same time he is in secret, basically, trying to keep a secret, escalating the vietnam war. so that is about where i am now. host: he have often said in several interviews we have done that you're going to go to vietnam. are you still going to go to vietnam, and when? robert: right now i am doing -- i will go after i finish this section. you know, and you understand it, i have long digressions in my books to set the stage, if you will, for something that he is doing. so right now, he is about to pass medicare, which was first proposed decades before -- health insurance for the poor and the elderly -- and i am doing a section that you might call "what it was like to be old and sick in america before there was medicare and medicaid." my current plan is, when that section is finished, that i

those sorts of questions because i'm not a medical professional, and we saw in 1964 with barry goldwater's campaign, these questions about mental fitness have been part of our politics for a long time. republicans though who are not medical professionals, they do wonder about the president's conduct and they wonder is this a president who could be controlled at all, can he be guided in any way? there's really a meekness, i perceive, in my conversations with republican officials. they don't know what to do. they don't know how to explain his behavior. they don't if anything they say will guide him towards the center or mainstream and they feel he's so popular, they will get dragged along with him to the riptide, however it winds up >> it's so interesting, when bob corker was in the senate, he made an effort to raise this issue. he held a hearing to try to limit the nuclear authority and powers of the american president. he talked about the white house's adult day care. he questioned donald trump's fitness and capacity to serve. but as robert costa is saying, the political reality kept other

>> darrell: there's never been a campaign that was more eavesdropped perhaps since barry goldwater, hiswas bugged by the fbi. this is an example, though, of the one who made the accusation. when the accusation turns out to be wrong. in other words, hillary clinton. you look then at the accuser. in this case, the fake dossier, the democratic national committee, and havard clinton now are coming under scrutiny for what turns out to be, after an extensive investigation, false accusations that, in fact, were created by giving a foreign agent -- british, in this case -- to work with the russians to create this fake dossier that has cost the american people tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars. >> melissa: jessica, rather than hillary clinton, it was president obama who started this and started talking about the russians. kind of pointed the justice department at that point in president trump's direction. >> jessica: mitch mcconnell was when he told president obama he didn't want to investigate further about russian interference. i can't believe that we just got the four page summary f

there's not a senator goldwater eventually putting the arm on president nixon in that case saying, look that's where we are. >> these things are not mutually exclusive. you know, as jeff says, look, you can make the case that this is congress doing its job, and i believe that's absolutely true. you can also say that there's a political strategy at work, and i believe that is absolutely true, which is educating the american public and educating themselves because as they prepare for the mueller report, pamela knows this, as they prepare for the mueller report, they're not so sure what they're going to get. >> the white house doesn't think they're going to be getting much. >> right. >> the way that they view the regulations is that barr has the discretion to decide and that he won't be hinting over much of the confidential report from mueller. i think what you see is democrats preparing for not getting a whole lot from the attorney general. >> this new long list of investigations, the new democrat majority in the house of representatives, is now open, jeffrey. what does that give you, wha

bush or ronald reagan or barry goldwater or dwight eisenhower was announced. this is a new place.is party is in. >> listen, i think that both parties, joe, are in disturbing times. i do. >> not both parties. name me a time when democrats at a convention had stood and cheered the death of a republican. >> well, i would have to think about whether they ever stood and cheered of a democrat. that's the analogy. the analogy is the cheering of death of one of their own. i can't think of one off the top of my head, joe, as an example of that. but my point to you is broader. which is that that is indicative of the fact that things are very different than when i first started coming on this program. when i first started coming on this program i was being cheered by folks of both parties for working with both sides. >> but it's different because of donald trump, is it not? even when republicans and democrats didn't get along and that has been going on a long time, you still didn't have people cheering the death of a political figure who crossed their dear leader. >> no. but i do think that

you've got nice and gary bald -- barry goldwater.back they oftentimes are successful and i don't think there's a big appetite on the right as much as there is on the left. david: one thing donald trump is due have to fix america and keep it on the right track. they want someone who has real world experience even in the wild word of realist date, then as a possible at the very least whoever that may be to be from the real world rather than the academic or political one. >> someone who's not poll tested. and what is accomplished. david: in the debate that proves i'm smart. he didn't run away from it. chris bedford, good to see you. tree into the ceo says the company is going to step up restructuring of power and that is where we are going to begin the next segment. we'll be right back. ♪ now... grandpa, what about your dream car? this is my dream now. principal we can help you plan for that . that's it. i'm calling kohler about their walk-in bath. nah. not gonna happen. my name is ken. how may i help you? hi, i'm calling about kohler's

you could ask presidents goldwater and mcgovern about mistake. rick in austin, texas.e thinks joe biden should run. caller: i think he should run because he is a uniting candidate. he knows how to relate to the working class. he is also strong on progressive issues, he helped sponsor the violence against women act. he could speak to both sides of the aisle. is an active vice president -- he was an active vice president so he knows the workings of the office. he can work with foreign leaders and feel someone's there. i would like to see him choose tammy duckworth as his running mate. she is a midwesterner, military woman and strong woman. her issues are climate change and infrastructure. i think the two of them would have a very strong message. he could speak, he could be the nice cup and. she could be that tough cop she is the one who nicknamed trump president -- cadet owns purse. host: who do you think would be his toughest competition in the democratic field right now? caller: [sighs] perhaps amy klobuchar. she knows how to run from the metal as well. beto o'rourke i
