so all the republicans are supporting this and joe manchin is and i appreciate that. but, folks, we narrowed the differences considerably. i feel badly for john cornyn's bill because it doesn't look like john cornyn's bill anymore, to be honest with you, half the provisions have been gone or changed because we listened to all of my democratic colleagues up here and we tried to come up with accommodations, we didn't get there, but close and in the who us close to those. to be clear what this is about. this is about that business which is a grocery store in pennsylvania that has said to its employees and its customers, you've got to wear a mask and they're getting sued. they're not part of a big chain. and they're thinking, i'm getting sued because i'm telling people what i think was the best thing to do? the standard were evolving, this is a national emergency, what should a business do, a nonprofit or a private nursing home. they're all scared to death. and i am -- they're not quite sure what the standards were. they can't fight the lawsuit, they might win a judgment

ainsley: even joe manchin said he is willing to work with republicans.ing. what's going on in the house? >> i think mitch is exactly right. speaker pelosi has walked away again and again and again from negotiations. there are a number of provisions that we agree on, for example, additional aid to small businesses who are continuing to suffer, particularly as we head into this holiday and retail season. direct support for k through 12 schools. that legislation would be signed into law today or yesterday if speaker pelosi would negotiate in good faith. instead she played politics leading up tout election. and she lost. she lost every single toss-up seat in the country. republicans from picked up numerous seats. we are continuing to pick them up with the iowa house seat and a california house seat. she is losing her leverage by the day. and i think the reality is if she can get her votes for speaker, which is still an open question, she is controlled by the far left and aoc. so she is going to have to go to them to get their approval. i'm working with leade

anna: senator joe manchin there. thomas is still with us. much is a stimulus package billion, is $908 this material in the context of everything we have seen, with the stimulus bills that have gone before? think $1 trillion is roughly what the market is expecting. it is a positive. but the thing is is it going to come before christmas, or after biden is inaugurated? not sure it matters that much. i think it is a slight positive. what is much more important is that we are completely confident that we can say the vaccine is working, and it takes out the risk for the global economy, which one could have feared say three months ago. for the market it is clearly a positive. ours: thomas, how much of risk assessment is based on herd 80%nity, that phrase, that take-up people are talking about, how important is that to match up with the risk-taking we are seeing? thomas: for me, it is much about dust the reason why you have seen this significant rally in equity markets especially in november after he got the pfizer news -- the market is forward-look

the reality is that even if joe biden has a democratic controlled senate he has members like joe manchintic rubber-stamp for a democratic agenda. joe biden himself is much more of a moderate than a progressive. biden would have to grapple with the divisions within a democratic led senate the same way mitch mcconnell right now is very much dealing with divisions within his own party even though he is majority leader. >> bret: bernie sanders, mollie, the earlier segment. >> i think president trump is the most dangerous president and the history of our country but he happens to be right on this issue. i think he is correct in saying that we are living in a terrible terrible economic moment for tens of millions of working-class families. we fought very hard to get the $600 direct payment. trump is right in saying that's not enough. we need to go to $2,000. i didn't say he's a visionary. he's right on this issue. >> bret: is it concerning for president trump or trump supporter if bernie sanders is agreeing with you? >> usually something to be worried about but remember that senator sanders an

with through the bronx is not true in west virginia with joe manchin.ennedy: it different than what it is in staten island. >> sure, sure. candy i think because we have a small majority in the house speaker of representatives, because we had could be a 5050 split or smaller republicans and the senate. the joe manchin's and aoc's are going to have more of a role in terms of being more vocal and more power to decide what is happening in the house. and what is happening in the senate. they may be the powerbrokers behind the scene. with house speaker and senate leadership in terms of what gets accomplished. kennedy: that's interesting but fails in the squad do withhold their vote and these are in and take contest. that absolutely can sway what is going on. but if you look at moderates in the senate, they are the ones were going to have the most power. which, if you are hoping republicans are there to support the massive spending programs, susan colleen's, mitt romney may be like no we kinda be like everyone. going to go along with the democrats. that is ter

joe manchin is right in th o midd things. and he's in the middle of kelly from arizona, kristin rk sinema who hasm voted with 90% of the time over the past few years, governor hicken looper who is going to be another moderate to conservative democratic senator. then you got mitt romney andsu n collins who won a state in maine by nine points that joe biden also won in -- by nine points. so you got six, seven, eight moderates on bo and people like lindsey graham and joni ernst saying they want to get involved i this covid deal. and i really would think of everything that'ss happened t week, the manchin coalition expanding out, manchin and romney, expanding out to six, seven, eight, nine, 10 moderates in the senate, really is a most important development if you're trying to figure out not what happened the last four oyears, but what's going happen over the next two years? of course, bernie sanders has said he cat support this bill. people like tom cotton also concerned on the other side they can't support the deal.ng you're go h
