john nichols is the national affairs correspondent for the nation a weekly political magazine he joins us via skype from madison wisconsin that quite a name pinball tray that the president has there do you think he's either trying to or you think it will be possible to effectively reverse 4 years of a trump presidency. i think he is going to try very hard to reverse it in fact he's doing so today of this afternoon and into the evening he will sign 17 executive orders these are powerful instruments of the presidency that allow him to reverse a lot of what president trump did on immigration issues on coronavirus on economic issues on racial justice issues so he's moving very fast but to to really make that change and frankly to address the fundamental issues facing the country going forward he is going to have to work with congress and that will be difficult we have an impeachment trial in the operating we also have a very closely divided congress the democrats have only a small majority in the house of representatives and it's a $5050.00 tie with the vice president breaking that tie in

let's go to john nichols now he's the national affairs correspondent for the nation a weekly political magazine and he joins us now via skype from madison wisconsin sir thank you so much for joining us here on the al-jazeera side and if you could hear some of my interview just there whether a former republican congressman from georgia what did you make of what he said about potential unity that the unity that. that we heard president biden talk about at the inauguration speech. i thought that congressman kingston who i interviewed in the past and didn't have a good regard for in many senses was a bit unrealistic about. president trump in the damage that president trump has done at this point. and i do think that that that becomes a problem as regards unity. biden did speak a great deal about unity in his speech he has always done so it tends to be a big part of his training but this point there is going to be a in a piece for trial for donald trump and the reason for that is that literally biden to accuse inaugural address made a speech on the steps of the capitol that was invaded just
