or insubordinate even because mcclellan is no doubt telling him the army is not going to fight. to enforce that proclamation that preliminary proclamation you issued two weeks ago. in fact, he might have even hinted what he told his wife that if i wanted to i could take this army in march into washington. which you probably would have preferred. there was less resistance there and and i could take over i could take over this government. i'm so wildly popular. that would make for an awkward summit meeting. what about macarthur and roosevelt? what was their relationship at this point? well, there was a lot of talk in the republican party about nominating macarthur for president in 1944, and he didn't he didn't do anything actively to promote that but he did absolutely nothing to prevent it. i think he thought if the country called him he's a soldier he will do his duty and if they call him to the highest office, of course, he would go roosevelt knew that he was a dangerous man and a lot of ways macarthur was a very difficult personality. we could have a whole conference on him, bu

guys like mcclellan. he knows lincoln is going to need to have some of these political generals. these guys have been in the army for a while and they haven't necessarily done well. they're going to need to have important roles because they garner important political support for lincoln. and, unfortunately, but probably unavoidably, both of these two subsidiary campaigns wind up being under political generals. the campaign out in the shenandoah valley -- actually, there's the shenandoah river, the campaign out in the shenandoah valley is entrusted to a german-born general. you think 20th century history -- actually, history has shown us that german-born generals can be very good, indeed. but sigel was not. he was not very good. he has this command. you just hope that maybe this time he'll perform better and he'll do something good. hopefully. and then the command of this smaller expedition along the james river, this goes to real american-born guy named benjamin butler. he's a massachusetts politician, a democrat and he's important. so lincoln needs these guys. he needs sigel bec

and didn't like mcclellan after that. which generals were on his side in which did he have problems with? just a few on each. >> certainly mcclellan is on his bad list, and initially he's not a great grant enthusiasts, and he changed his mind, and he forwarded an illinois letter about grant being drunk all the time, and chase in the cover note says you may want to think about this. but he comes to appreciate grant, and he gets along famously with the future president, garfield, and garfield comes and lives in his house for a while, and even folks you think he would not get along with, he gets along with. joseph hooker who has a reputation that you would think would not go well with a man like chase that did not drink, period. but he -- >> yeah, he was a complete anti-temperance man? >> he had an occasional glass of wine, and occasional -- it was a pretty sober household, the chase household. it was not the steward household. >> right. what was his general relationship with the press? >> he's not as adept with managing the

the thing with mcclellan worked out so badly, it left northern virginia so wide open, lincoln doesn't like that and really is just not going to let that happen. so that's not -- that's a nonstarter for grant. now, what grant is going to do, he's going to use a combination of all three plans. his army is on the orange and alexandria railroad new culpeper when he starts out. and lee is south of them. so grant is going to angle -- there we go. it's going to angle across the river there, angling to the southeast like that, towards the little courthouse town of spotsylvania. and if he can get to spotsylvania before lee does, lee is blocking his route over here. grant is going to go that way. if lee -- if grant can get down there before lee does, grant is going to get a head start. if he can get there before lee does, he will actually be in the enviable situation of being closer to richmond than lee is, and lee will be in a lot of trouble. at that point, lee is almost check mated if grant can do that. and grant would be willing to accept a quick victory. all of those expectations for victor

so had mcclellan been elected would have ended in no other way. if that had occurred and v that is a very likely result. one is united states would have continued to dissolve into secession once itn is successful there's no reason why there should not be more. and not difficult to see the pacific coast going off into its own west coast republic. the northwestern states and the great lakes area hiding off itself into its own independent republic leaving pennsylvania and new york as the united states to become a useless and balkanized tiny republic. >> and a longer with the united states they would have been trade wars and the result would've been organization and if there had been what would have been the result with world war i and world war ii? and the result of that it is not pleasant to contemplate but that's onlyt' one possible result another of confederate independence is negotiations would've been the rendition of fugitive slaves. and through the course of civil war and of those slaves that fled slavery and with those contraband camps or fou

so had mcclellan been elected there would have been negotiations. it would have ended and no other way than with confederate independence. if confederate independence had occurred, there are a number of really unpleasant things that i think were very likely resulted. one is the united states would have continued to dissolved in secessions. once you have a successful succession there's no reason you should not have more. and it would not be difficult the pacific coast hiding off the northwestern states the great lakes era the great lakes area. hiding off itself into its own independent republic. leaving what would say pennsylvania, new york and new england as the united states. to become a useless tiny republic was no longer with united states business antic free trade zone for their meat trade wars. and if there had been that kind of what would've been that results when it came to world war i and world war ii? for there been a united states to intervene? no. and the result of that that's only one possibility. another possible result confederate inde

from as mcclellan's victory was confirmed, far left demonstrators clashed with police and several cities across france. accuse him a crown of being a president for the rich. he insists he would be a president for all the french, but the republic he ruled is more divided and dissatisfied than when he began 5 years ago. in watching detail, the news coming up next in dw news, asia, philippines presidential candidates ramped up their campaigns with just 2 weeks ago until election day. and why priests are getting involved as campaigners in the run up to the vote. as stories and more coming up with my colleague direct vanity is also plenty more for you on our web site. that's d w dot com. and you can of course, follow us on social media. i'm an eclipse makennan on behalf the whole team here. thanks for watching. enjoying the view. sh and come take a look at this tv highlights every week in box. subscribe now. oh hello guys. this is the 77 percent. the platform for africa, you to defeat issues and share ideas with, you know, or this channel. we are not of great to hatcher and delicate tub afric

he's also going to send another small army on a campaign somewhat similar to what we saw mcclellan do back in 62. that is approach richmond from the rivers going to off the map here. but the rivers well, yeah right here. james river right there now mcclellan, you know went up the york river and then followed the richmond new york river railroad for various reasons. this little peripheral campaign that grants planning the smaller army is going to go along the james river. and we'll be able to strike either for richmond. or for the smaller town of petersburg so what about petersburg well? in order for the confederates to feed lee's army. and the people of richmond they need supplies. supplies, come on. four railroads the confederates would have to keep at least two of those railroads. at least two in order to keep richmond fed to keep lee's army fed to maintain their position in virginia. okay, so they've got to keep two out of the four. three out of the four come together at petersburg. so if the union that union forced that subsidiary arm is smaller army. i'm going to tell you about l

mcclellan is on his bad list. at least initially. he's not a great grant enthusiast. he changes his mind about grant. he's actually the one who sent to lincoln forwarding from an illinois editor the letter about grant being drunk all the time and chase in this cover notes says, you know, you may want to think about this. but he comes to appreciate grant he gets along famously with a future president james garfield garfield comes and lives in his house for a while. and interestingly even some folks who you were think he would not get along with he gets along with so joseph hooker for example, who has me say a reputation, but you would think would not go well with a man like chase who did not drink period um, but he was a complete anti-temperance man. um, you know, he he would occasionally serve one. maybe he would have a glass of wine, but he was he was it was it was a pretty sober household the chase household. it was not the seward household. let's put it this way. all right. what was this general relationship with the press? throughout his entire life. really? yeah.

charles: like to welcome the author of mcclellan report, tom mcclellan.ardships, talk about runaway inflation, but very few connect the dots to the crime. data is delayed, particularly national data, we're seeing numbers local, looks like history might be repeating itself. you put together a chart. can you go over it for us? >> charles the criminologists say crime is correlated to gdp if you have a economic slowdown, people engage more crime. the problem it is not a fact, but a hypothesis, doesn't match up what data would say. back in 2008, everybody calls a economic slowdown the crime rate fell even though we had a lousy economy. what crime correlates toe with inflation with a twist. when you see inflation rise or fall you get a similar reaction in the crime rate about a year later. we don't have the data crime rates nationwide for 2021. the last data we have in 2020. that is the lowest for years. that matches what the inflation model said should be happening we had low inflation going into that. we've seen inflation spiking up to 8%. we're hearing anecd

the former minister candy mcclellan was a former media minister and kevin and spokesperson previously, who confirmed that following a meeting of government ministers and old ministers were in the capital campbell as the sort of progress they had. a meeting, given all the political model that the sunday has brought and that there was a decision to collectively resign from the posts and the port folios as cabinet ministers. the submitted that collective resignation which minister i'm quite told me, had been accepted by the president. he said that this move had been made by all of these ministers and politicians to facilitate and to allow the president give him the liberty of receiving other parties into a new cabinet. he said that this would actually give the chance to the prime minister and the president to appoint and bringing new phases to form a consensus cabinet. so after sort of weeks of speculation and growing public anger, which had been very much focused at president boxer and his government with finding this collective resignation by the cabinet. okay, it's fast moving situati
