does doug jones have a chance? >> it's definitely an uphill climb for doug jones, but this is not impossible. i mean if you look back at 2012 when roy moore last ran for office -- now, a lot has happened since 2012. roy moore ran in a race against democrat named bob vance. bob vance got 48% of the vote in that election. republican voters either undervoted in that election, they don't vote for either candidate or they crossed over and voted for the democrat in that election. so that's giving doug jones an democrats in this state a little bit of hope that this might be within reach whereas if luther strange or another candidate had won the nomination last night that that wouldn't be the case. >> one of the things that we saw happen in the presidential election with donald trump was this idea that i think people strategists the democrats had was he's going to turn off these suburban country club republican voters who are going to be so offended by hymn they're going to vote for hillary clinton. and while the margins,

on the jones act, critics say the white house should have moved forward quickly in waiving the jones act. why is that an unfounded complaint? mr. bossart: it is an unfounded complaint. the jones act is a rule that favors u.s. flag vessels. if there are not enough to make the need, we waive the jones act. at this point, we had enough to exceed the requirement in need of diesel fuel and other commodities. now we are seeing backlogged diesel fuel needs in the island. it was misunderstood that we had a capacity problem and had to waive the jones act. not the case. we had commodities as necessary, the challenge became land-based distribution. that remains a priority today. last night, the governor called me and said to ensure that the additional needs are met, it would be good to pull out all the stops to make sure that capacity ran into the problem. president waived it right away. it was not too late or too early. reporter: at this point, distribution is one of the biggest challenges. you talked about 44 hospitals being up and running, necessary to bring in people whose lives are at risk

i know why he shouldn't hold back, what irma came for seven days, this jones act was suspended. that meant the cost of living and the cost of reconstruction materials we s went down 30%. it's better for the u.s. in terms of relief rather than only pouring millions of dollars into puerto rico, just eliminating or suspending for a year the jones act, so that it's lowered 30% automatically, the cost of reconstruction is going to be enormous and if 30% can be lowered, that's just one very big first step. >> so mayor-- >> so the president doesn't really understand. >> so he said, i'm just quoting him, i don't need to replay his full sound bite again, but he said he's thinking about this, but we have a lot of shippers and a lot of people working in the shipping industry that don't want the jones act lifted, that's the reason he gave today for the reason why he doesn't lift it in the case of puerto rico. do you think he sees you and other americans in puerto rico as second class citizens? >> well, yeah, there were a lot of people that did not want slavery to end. and it was the right t
