hoover, and you see the name is written.-- sorry, he received the appointment to her majesty, the queen, in 1901. unfortunately, i do not have an image to show you, because this garment is in very complicated and challenging condition. but hopefully, the next time i do a talk on this, that garment will have been put back into order and you'll be able to see it. she was really kind of picture perfect as a mother of these two boys. and believe it or not, the portland, oregon postcard you see on the right, i purchased two days ago on ebay, because i was looking for a little sailor suit outfit that i would not have to worry about copyright. so this is a 1907 07 postcard is now in my possession. even in berm urma, in the middl the outback, you see her in a skirt that is pleaded, that is beautifully taored. her son is wearing onof these little lord ruffleshirts that's very abate. and mysterious fashion drawing, ich i've been fascinated , has a description, it sa, lace so fragile it had to be sewn on whiton. stripes spangled butter

so these are really fascinating in terms of lou hoover. and if you take a look at that at the sleeve, i'm going to show you a bit later the sleeve right here that that influenced a very important gown in collection that i'm going to be talking about extensively. now. there is a dress in the collection from redfern and. john redfern began in the isle of wight and then to london and to paris and was the heart of, of the fashion industry. he, he competed with charles frederick wirth. he was really e of the most foremost couture's and couturier and is a dress in the collection. and here you see the label redfern, paris, and the label is always the band inside the bodice and it says here by special appointed into her imperial majesty empress of russia. and on the right it says to to the princess of wales who who would become queen very shortly because victoria on in january in 1901 and then she of course became the queen. this is the dress and this is just a detail of it and kind the kind of workmanship, the craftsmanship, the lace, the embroid

this is a style that lou henry hoover really liked. from the 1920s, onward, almost until the end of her life, she wore hats that covered her for head. she wore elaborate prints. she has a reputation of being motherly and wearing black and brown, but some of her garments are not that. you have -- this is in the exhibition, these are printed silk chiffon. which there must have been millions. because i work for an auction house and in every auction, we had dozens and dozens of these from the 1930s. they were very popular. here is one where the fabr is tter pron it. u diet and black and you rinse out the glue. multicolored printsof silk chifcalled garden dresses and you were wearing the blossoms, not only in the garden and walking among the blossoms, you were wearing them . one of my favorite images, this is what she wore to the inauguration. she stood out because, no one else was wearing a girl scout uniform. she was fitely a standout in atparticular case. she wore this hat, my topic of discussion, from 1929, you see how just the face boo

(activists shouting in foreign language) - [hoover] in 2020, hundreds of thousands went into the streets in the former soviet republic of belarus in defiance of dictator alexander lukashenko, a strong ally of vladimir putin. that uprising inspired a basketball star named katya snytsina to speak up. - it's like, come on, now. you need to say something. you know, you can't just be silent. because it's people who will support me during all my basketball career. you know, like it's them on the streets dying. - [hoover] snytsina led the belarusian team to the 2008 olympics. her political awakening was turned into a play, in which she plays herself. we taped this interview on stage immediately after a performance in new york in september. she was joined by underground theater director natalia kaliada, who is exiled from belarus. - we as artists have that unique combination of morality and creativity that put dictators into panic mode. - [hoover] and by opposition leader and former presidential candidate sviatlana tsikhanouskaya, also in exile. her husband is among the hundreds of political pri

and hoover looked at the young reporter and said, the secret, i outlived them.l to see that. i stress the success of his presidency in so many ways. in what has been wonderful, because he lived so long, he has been able to see historians now and those archives at the carter centre, thatis archives at the carter centre, that is an active archive with all the papers and files of the carter administration. and so many of them are now open. so researchers are getting in there, historians and journalists, and starting to see how this idea that carter's was a failed presidency doesn't add up to the facts. i mentioned camp david earlier and panama canaland mentioned camp david earlier and panama canal and the nuclear arms reduction agreement, domestically in the united states of america, places and people receiving orders through the mail and places like amazon, they should be pausing to think. jimmy carter deregulated the trucking industry and things like that. —— they should be pausing to thankjimmy carter. we -- they should be pausing to thankjimmy carter.- thankjim

steve, the hoover dam, really, steve? what is the big thing biden did that equals the hoover dam?> nothing by the way happy birthday. liz: thank you, steve. >> on the hoover dam, if biden had been in charge of it, century later we still wouldn't have it today. if it was done in five years in the 1930s, you mentioned the ev charging stations, the bandwidth connections. everything this government has tried to do if they have their way we'll become like germany. we're going to become a wrecked economy in terms of manufacturing. in germany because of their green new deal, as a result, energy costs there are two to three times that which we face here in the united states today. we want triple energy costs. that's what their agenda is doing. they gave us a tsunami of a regulation that are burdening the economy, so if they think that's an achievement lord help us and by the way, the german government collapsed. liz: yeah that's a great point. you know, the reporting needs to be done too on all of the green energy slush funds, and whether all that money was recycled back into donations in

he is going to shut down the hoover building which i'm not a great fan of the hoover building but day one, that's a lot of confusion, where do people go to work now. and then of course, he's got his enemies list of people who says the fbi should go to work on he will be bringing with him. and, he was pledged to go after people like you. civilly or criminally. he says. in his view, in the government's view, when the press isn't telling the truth. so, any one of those would be pretty disabling and the fact that he brings all of this basket, nightmarish views will be a lively hearing and he will have to do a lot of fancy footwork the try to explain his way around all those things. >> he, kash patel doesn't have 51 committed republican senate votes for confirmation at this stage. his confirmation hearing could contain all sorts of surprises that people aren't anticipating and could put his nomination in much more difficulty after the hearing than it was before the hearing. >> yeah. particularly when we are seeing the results of an fbi background check. you know. who knows what that turns

- [narrator] "firing line with margaret hoover" is made possible in part by robert granieri, vanessa and henry cornell, the fairweather foundation, peter and mary kalikow, and by the following. corporate funding is provided by stephens inc. - jonathan haidt, welcome to "firing line." - margaret, what a pleasure. - we've known each other for several years, and i have followed your work for many years. you are out with a brand-new book, "the anxious generation: "how the great rewiring of childhood "is causing an epidemic of mental illness." what is the great rewiring? - the great rewiring refers to a five-year period, an extraordinary five-year period, where the nature of life for adolescents changed radically, more than it ever has. in 2010, adolescents had flip phones. they had no, most did not have high-speed internet. they had, did not have unlimited data plans. they did not have instagram. they did not have front facing cameras. over the next five years, by 2015, most american teens have a smartphone with a front-facing camera, high-speed internet. they have an instagram account o

them up in the uk thenit if we hoover them up in the uk then it could be disinflationary.overnment policies, national insurance contributions from employers and minimum wage going up could be inflationary but if board rooms don't give as big a pay rise as they expect to do then there is a lot for the bank of england to weigh up. for the chancellor rachel reeves it has been a tough couple of weeks and she will no doubt breathe a sigh of relief. she says these are welcome figures but still too high for working families and she is fighting to put more money in the pockets of people. the tories say policies from the budget have killed growth stone dead. growth in gdp, we get that figure tomorrow, is the economy growing now? rachel reeves then goes to the snowy hills of davos for the world economic forum next week when there will be more financial animals and ski animals and she will have to convince them that her economic policies have not veered too far off piste.- veered too far off piste. thank ou, veered too far off piste. thank you. marc _ veered too far off piste. thank

in the interviews i conduct for the hoover of anistan oral history archive. go beyond the general timelines and this is important probably for your work as well. each person has their own mini timelines and events that they saw and witnessed that led to big events such as the 2004 constitutional loya jirga or the 2009 presidential elections. these personal timelines of people in key positions when paired with documents and other archives have the potential of revealing critical moments during the period of the republic that things could have gone differently and now help us understand more than simple or general lessons learned with hans. i conduct life histories which are longer than regular oral histories in order to understand why certain decisions were made and choices that shaped the events in afghanistan. it is important to understand the context of their lives. the patterns of being affected by war displacement, poverty and long periods of uncertainty become painfully visible. my longest life history interview for the collection is 10.5 hours and in th

you know, herbert hoover. i, i don't think anybody would ever study herbert hoover. he's address might lay out all seven of those characteristics but since those policies led to the great depression we say no, we don't want that. so it has to work. and then having eloqua is a plus you know it i would say with the exception of abraham lincoln and. dr. king where eloquence and their message are simply infused together they are in separate. well i like to say about of them that we get one saint every 150 years and god god knows where in desperate need today, i think we have time for maybe one more question. my question is, how does this inauguration speech from ones of like modern time time? well, in it's more eloquent, any inaugural address except, burlington second would be my what i would say it is. i, i there was not a clear domestic agenda in my in either george herbert walker bush or bill inaugural inaugural. and i think that explained why largely they their their agendas were were not as broadly successful or as as either for example obama or reagan. and, you kno

edgar hoover was pretty funny. those high heels?accuse people of communism and ruin lives and families? way to go, charlie. >> charlie: apparently my joke didn't land. okay. i will go back. >> tyrus: which are very good at. >> charlie: and he said he regrets? when he regrets is that all these people dumped on him and don't listen to him anymore. in his defense -- the only thing i thought was strange about what he said on that podcast, he's like, i care a lot about politics. i really follow politics. i don't think he does. i think he read "the new york times," he believes everything he reads in "the new york times," so he thinks all those things they write about donald trump are true and then he goes out and he says it and he is surprised when he finds out he's been lied to you all this time and that he's wrong about it, and that actually he's wrong about donald trump and he's even more wrong about people who support him. >> tyrus: kat, like i said, because this has become the media -- the hood has been blown off. we all see that the

staying on the auto theme, hoover, shares are rising after they entered a accelerated share buyback agreement with bank of america. don't forget about banks, they are rising today on news that the federal reserve vice chair for supervision plans to set down from one of his rules. bank stocks as you can see by the index climbing almost 2% after that recognition and resignation was announced by the fed at 11 a.m. time. michael mckee is our go to for all things fed here at bloomberg. and walk us through what michael barr is doing. he's not resigning from the federal reserve overall. mike: no. he's resigning from a vice chair for supervision position that is relatively new. so, there is something of a president here -- precedent here, and his issue is does he want to stay on to fight with donald trump about what regulations should be. they were going to re-propose proposals in the first quarter, but that now appears to be kind of dead because the trump administration wouldn't want it anyway. he is not resigning as a governor of the federal reserve, meaning there is an opening and donald trump can

mr. hoover boss, lorraine, me. so the way i sits going by the program in the secure, totally in your thoughts free. now i me to come ski d pulled protocol wants to do the this interview is stetsco was recorded in 1984. he talks openly about who supported the main ideologists of ukrainian independence during world war 2. the mexican session is, i guess, stop by saying that pre show. okay. and it's chairs, the window a new mexico use the forward so coordinated to on the don't to call them to come in and across the police say in a criteria there is some way that crush or the ethical of them. they just sort of though you stop to go based on the extreme, they're all professor buyer, nick a pick a player was tom and so on the dash though, i'll show you what he was here in the us. that's cool. and his associates received support of the highest level in this photo. next to him is jean cook. patrick you, as president reagan's closest i got a slide, is probably konica my whole way a bunch of communities come from co splendid

edgar hoover was pretty funny. those high heels, they were hysterical. >> didn't he accuse people of communism and ruin lives and families? yeah. way to go, charlie. >> apparently. apparently, my. apparently my joke didn't land. okay, so i'll go back to analysis. >> yes. what's your what's your very good at? >> so no, no. he says he regrets. no, no. what he regrets is that all these people, like, dunked on him and don't listen to him anymore. but in his defense, and the only thing that i thought was kind of strange about what he said on that podcast is that he's like, i really i care a lot about politics. i really follow politics. i don't think that he does. i think that he reads the new york times. he believes everything he reads in the new york times. so he actually thinks all those things that they write about donald trump are true. and then he goes out and he says it. and then he's surprised when he finds out that he's been lied to all this time and that he's wrong about it, and that actually, he's wrong about

would you rather quote herbert hoover or franklin delano roosevelt.ers and applause] would you rather quote richard nixon or john fitzgerald kennedy? [cheers and applause] the republicans have always been the party of privilege. this year, their leaders have got even further. in their platform, they have repudiated the best traditions of their own party. where is the conscience of lincoln in the party of lincoln? what became of the traditional republican commitment to federalist responsibility? what happened to their commitment to a safe and sane arms control? i don't claim perfection for the democratic party. i don't claim every decision we have made has been right or popular. certainly, they have not all that easy. but i will say this. we have been tested under fire. we have neither ducted nor hidden. -- ducked nor hidden. [applause] and we have tackled the great central issues of our time. the historic challenges of peace and energy which have been ignored for years. we have made tough decisions. we have taken the heat for them. we made mistakes. w

, they're looking for the tools that they dislike institutions because they made that room for my hoover and the european union as one level of government is that helps to fix problems that the nation state is no longer capable to address. they came up with a restriction for a global business. people like on her stuff, platforms with the digital service act to fight for the values and principles that made the western talk. democracies work so you know, must, is attacking not only germany. he's attacking the european union for the ability to bad, a page page and everything that is part of the thing that this course at the political culture in our open societies and the identity with adults fund. and you don't last have to say in trends. i've also seen you the connection between stefan it in trauma one and the law must. and trump, to the main difference is that mosque has far more fire power and a retentive germany and a dismantled situational system is in both interest because they benefit from peo sense disruption. jessica here if it's is kind of concerned about the blazing influence of

yeah, do the trick this time india in china are reportedly hoover and got russian oil at prices ranging from $64.00 to $84.00 a barrel way above the g 7. dig todd's because those countries basically have a permanent pop up blocker that applies to all of the hare brained ideas coming out of here. so how much less do they want russia to have to charge for yours crude oil? well, heck, if they know these are experts who are supposed to work this out, i guess like maybe for example, the ceo of francis to attend a nancy who said it was actually really stupid when they 1st mentioned this id, as a price cap. austin, russian oil 2 years ago, or maybe they'll have an expert on the panel to decide the price kept like a former trump administration. treasury secretary, steve mon newton, who said that it was quote, ridiculous in terms of an idea. or maybe they just won't listen to those particular experts, but some other experts nameless, faceless, who happen to be in charge in the that's always kind of how it works with the bureaucrats who run things here. it turns out that other countries aren't wi

yeah, do the trick this time, india in china, our report as the hoover and got russian oil at prices ranging from $64.00 to $84.00 a barrel way above the g 7. dig tat, because those countries basically have a permanent pop up blocker that applies to all of the hair brain ideas coming out of your it turns out that other countries aren't willing to just hop into the ground har and go along for the ride though. who's idea was there any way it can be traced back to us treasury secretary jack yelling? that's biden's treasury secretary, another egging on by washington is what this idea kind of sprung from yelling by the way. also came up with the idea of french touring for western countries to pay for it away from china, which again, maybe the us. thanks. that's great for it. not exactly smart for europe though to do that with their, our biggest trading partner. meanwhile, the u has made such a mass of its energy supply even before any new su like this has the chance to get introduced. that it's way down here on year on it's gas. storage is and we're still months away from the end of winte

and so much a lot of those from hoover and not a tax is, will out to do a tax around the block from nearly all of this morning in java and jamalia town, then from the area all the way to on the ocean. so we're looking at $666.00 people now some form filled in these at cox, women and children again are making the vast majority of the season is still more people are missing on a trap under the rubber, but it's not only the bonds that are killing people the in force displacement that in force difficult living condition and out of what shows are adding to the tragedy as well as the weather conditions were. rain falls this morning and he'd be with are uploading many of the tents that this, that stops in the coast of the area of the quote, the line here in the center of the area. you know them off the evacuation. the people are for the not dying of the bonds, they're dying to be difficult living conditions, the worse and living conditions, the freezing temperature, and they have already killed these 7 baby at so far. ok. this is what we found out when we visited the 10th counts during the storm.

mcmaster, a senior fellow at the hoover institution started at stanford university. as a trained historian and seasoned combat soldiers that served in afghanistan mcmaster was keenly aware that recording individual histories would be crucial to the truth. i joined as an oral historian and manager in april 2020 two and i have conducted more than 120 oral history interviews, more than 350 hours of recordings with afghans and americans that lived and worked in afghanistan in 2001-2021. we have done a subset of oral histories inside afghanistan to capture the emotion and sentiment of those that could not leave, or wanted to stay. i traveled to many countries looking for and finding people that would be essential to the history. i don't think my children even recognize me. they say, who with the lady that is back today? i can't go into much detail about who is in the archive but i can assure it's important to your work. you will find people to tell you stories that matter, moments that are critical during this war. there was plenty of physical documentation during the tim

she also notes staying up late to watch former president hoover speak at the 1952 national convention. republican and not getting enough sleep after watching the 1954 election returns come in. meet the press was one of the few programs she tried to see regularly, calling it informative, instructive, stimulating. she said, i watch television when i want to see certain special programs and if i possibly can, i watch when the president of the united states appears or when any other public official speaks on a subject on which i think citizens should be informed. i have no favorite programs since i have no time to listen or watch. just for pleasure. air reveal a fondness for edward r murrow and his news programs, but she really did not like shows dealing with or violence. this was because of the medium's influence young people. and she felt that, quote, television must bear the response ability of forming taste. in a 1959 article she wrote for tv guide entitled television's contribution to the senior citizen. she also advocate advocated the potential of television to keep older people con

the problem with the fbi is people at central headquarters here, particularly on top floor of the hooverg and i think he's going to make radical changes that need to be done because what goes on at the political level of the fbi has hurt the credibility throughout the rank and file. i think the rank and file does their job of law enforcement, they get bad reputation because people at the top that see political motive behind some things they do, it is investigations they do. >> brian: kash will be in front of you shortly. but with pam bondi, it is a two-step process, she speaks anden this there will be witnesses from democrats and know ares, can you explain that? >> yeah, i don't know how many committees do it this way, often done in judiciary committee, we have candidate for one meeting one day and the next day, opponents and proponents of the candidate can come and speak and answer questions. second day is not quite as important as first day, it is tradition of judiciary committee to do that. >> brian: senator, can i marvel at something. you are none years old, sharp as ever, all this e

he would have his nose on the ground like a hoover looking for ham. don't go anywhere.re's more fun to come this new year's eve. coming up next, we'll say good-bye to the biggest political losers, sleepy joe and cackling kamala. that's next. ♪ liberty mutual customized my car insurance so i saved hundreds. with the money i saved i thought i'd get a wax figure of myself. cool right? look at this craftmanship. i mean they even got my nostrils right. it's just nice to know that years after i'm gone this guy will be standing the test of ti... he's melting! oh jeez... nooo... oh gaa... only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ when my doctor gave me breztri for my copd, things changed for me. breztri gave me better breathing, symptom improvement, and reduced flare-ups. breztri won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. it is not for asthma. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. don't take breztri more than prescribed. breztri may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteopor

senior fellow institute at the hoover institution, victor davis hanson, i thought the look lefto lovedaires. ciplso what happened? l >> it is not principal. they love freed hoffman and mark zuckerberg when warped 2020 election with $19 million. anjustd george soros nearly destroyed the criminal justice m system. i think part of it is they love tesla ups much as they hate him aan end tesla was part of that n subsidizing or helping them. that drives them crazyives especially here. but i think the real thing is they are afraid of him. e people said he can't save nasa and he did.nt he can't get into the big three auto nobody has done that and he did. he can't c radicalizane social e and he did.he they really believe he can cut and they are afraid one ore we $2 trillion and that is all they have spreading their wealth and ts aall of entitlements and free stuff because if she was the border, economy, crime overseas and nobody wants it. they think they have these constituencies they can lavish money on. if he did what he did in there other fields, they feel it will hurt their future, and i th

of course, the whole structure was geared towards hoover and massive numbers of people in accordance with directives that came from the central crisis management. so i think you're going to be now that the, they said database those this the easily on this, the, to the, it will see on this, on the central crisis management cell. the c cmc in english setup categories of people to be arrested. those who participate in demonstrations, those who finance demonstrations, those who speak to foreign journalists and march the name of syria in the international uh domain and so on and so forth. but the system was so inefficient and so brutal that once you arrested, you were comfortable in the mind of, of the system. this case when that goes in the invest, telling me is because the study the c cmc, the central crisis management, so established policy. so these were the key members of the central crisis management. so all this, the top leaders of the syrian state served on that committee. the meetings happened on a more or less daily basis. then minutes from that meeting would be prepared and the

and contact us with tips joke us now victor davis hanson senior fellow at hoover.ictor, this is almost like a joke. so, four years later, they are looking for tips from the public and they wonder why they have no credibility? >> yeah, i think they are afraid the narrative changed over the four years and they were afraid to release any information during the election. now they feel that there is a new administration, and there might be some exposure or culpability and they are afraid that, you know, if they were donald trump and they had suffered what they did to him, they would be very frightened the way they think. so they think that donald trump is going to re-examine a lot of this. a lot of the things they said, laura, were abject lies. there were not four officers killed. there were not 10 people killed. there was only one violent death, we think, and that was a trump supporter ashley babbitt. and then there was no need to hide the officer bird's identity. any time an officer lethally shoots unarmed person in this country they are identified. and for some reaso

fellow at the hoover foundation and charles moreno, former ths senior advisor. jonathan, i have to start with you. all afkind of amazing to watch all of thites and watch the reaction from officials aftefacr the fact. it does seem like authorities were completely caught off guard here and i'm prepared for this. >> i think complacency is the word. it is just as shocking to watch t these people walk down the same road thastt this happened last nighitt and not even give it or sorry, two nights ago and not i even t give it a thought. to me, that is very alarming. but i think you are getting on something here, law enforcementv and citye officials around the country have failed to evolve as the attackers evolved their tactics. these truck attacks have been talked about and used by isis since 2010 when they rode an article about how efficient they are. d i think it is one of the easiest things to guard against. i think what we saw in the press conference in new orleans is a sign of the incompetents. i'm not trying to insult them, but the way of they just don't progress

joining me now victor davis hanson, senior fellow at the hoover institution.ved billionaires, flight when they had the right views. so what happened? >> well, it's not principle. they loved read hoffman when he fund e. jean girl and mark zuckerberg when he election $419 million. and mentioned george soros who really destroyed the criminal justice system. it's not principle. i think part of it is they love their teslas as much as they hate him. and it drives them crazy because they love evs and then tesla was the ev par election lance and they are subsidizing or helping them that drives them crazy here he had are helping him. people say he can't save nasa and he did can't get into the three big auto and did he. he can't revolutionize media and he did. they are afraid he can cut they are afraid 1 or $2 trillion. that's all they have is spreading the wealth and all these entitlements and free stuff because there issue issues on the border and crime they do think they have constituencies that they can lavish money on. if he comes in and did what he does in these o

united states on military installations abroad, only two are named for former presidents, the herbert hoover club in st. louis and the jimmy and rosalynn carter unit in plains. and the difference between those two is that president carter physically built his club. finish. david: you know, as a former boys club member myself, i grew up in washington, d.c., but i gotta tell you, i'm very proud of the work that he did. and service the -- i can't -- it was, i can't tell you how wonderful my experience was decades ago growing up with the boys' club because i learned everything from how to shoot a .22 to how to get along with people, to how to row a skull in the potomac river are. i mean, it gives you basic, good, common sense, decent ways of growing up that a lot of kids don't have access >> i, too, am a club kid and worked in the national headquarters and a privilege of being the ceo of the clubs that i grew up in and that's what i wanted for everybody, he wanted to make sure that every young person regardless of race or ability to pay, had a place to go, grow and thrive and that's one of the t

director hoover had a wiretap on nixon's campaign and gave it to hubert.ubert called in his aides and said what should i do with this? they said you have to leak it to the press because it's treasonous. he said i'm from minnesota, i believe in clean politics, i'm not going to do it. peter: that story about not going to the peace talks, the nixon side has denied that. stuart: it's very well established. we actually have the transcript of the wiretap. peter: stu eizenstat, how'd you get from washington to atlanta in the first place? stuart: i think in high school i would have been voted to be the least likely to get into politics and public policy because i was maybefully shy and very bookish. first i got involved in student government and u.n.c. had a very well established student rnment. second, i went to keenan football stadium in 19 to hear president john f. kennedy challenge my generation to get involved in politics, to make the country your mission. that had a tremendous impact and third, in the summer of 1963 i applied with an internal internship with

here now with reaction, hoover institution senior fellow victor davis hanson. federalist correspondent brianna lyman and doug schoen, democratic pollster. thank you all for joining us. doug, come on, to mess up the pledge of allegiance for the vice-president of the united states? that should be an easy one, right? >> well, it just underscores how really unsuited she was for national office and certainly not to be the president of the united states. and as for james carville, he was so certain the democrats were going to win. everybody who was against kamala harris was either wrong or stupid or racist or out of touch, whatever. i think we realize that we are a divided country. the issues, as he's now ackno acknowledged, the economy, the southern border, crime. we're all working for the republicans. and ultimately, as you've suggested, and your other guests have suggested, the victory was clear. and i think my party needs to do a real rethink of where it stands, cooperate with trump, where they agree, where the american people want cooperation and seek to carve o
