reagan did. a lot of input so he could retreat to the oval office and think. everything that ron said, and obviously hoe knows his father better than anyone in washington, d.c., is absolutely true. >> from the outside, i knew that about your father, president reagan. we have to do this another night. he had tremendous understanding of the constitution, he understood the role of the other people. and he put it all together. that was his salute to the constitution, recognizing how it all work eed together. one of the most consistent themes of donald trump's campaign a call to repeal and replace obamacare. >> my poll numbers are going through the roof. you know why. i believe a big part is obamacare because we're going to repeal it and replace it. >> obamacare has to be replaced. and we will do it and we will d it very, very quickly. it is a catastrophe. if we don't repeal and replace obamacare, we will destroy american health care forever. >> but now, president-elect trump seems to be softening that hard line somewhat. here's what he told "60 minutes" today for a broadcast on sunda

ron reagan, political an list and commentator, and nancy giles. 37% in that poll say they think this will come up at their family thanksgiving. i think the real number will end up being higher. and i think that's a good thing. one thing that became clear is this idea of two americas where nobody talks to each other. a real thing. you get extended family. you'll get two together. how do you keep it civil? what are the keys? >> i'm still in shock. i might as well put that out there. creative visualization exercises and get me over the hump. by the way, i really liked your wing and feather jokes. they weren't fowl at all. i've been thinking one way to bridge the dwap in the conversation is to treat whatever your eating area, kind of in the same way you would an airplane once they lock the main cabin door. check your exits to make sure you have an idea, if you have to make a hasty retreat. keep your valuables under the seat, a little bit in front so if you need on make a fast exit, you can grab those things and bolt. make sure you're traveling with a designated driver who are you have yo

let me go to ron reagan here. ron, do you see two trumps or just one? take your time. >> well, the two tweets that you mentioned, the first of which was almost certainly written by donald trump, the second which may or may not have been, are exemplary of the drama that is about to play out both in public, because of course donald trump is the president of the united states, but also just as importantly within donald trump himself. the question we're going to have answered here shortly is whether donald trump will remain the sort of figure he was during the campaign, thin-skinned, unable to contain himself, incoherent, frequently, or whether donald trump can become the kind of man he needs to be to be the president of united states. now, hugh used to work for my father in his administration. and he's aware of my father. he's familiar with my father. he doesn't know him as well as i do, of course. but since he brought my father up, i have to say, as a point of personal privilege, perhaps, that i find myself in a state of cognizant dissonance here when i w

. >> ree ree is hear -- ron reagan is here tonight and cuyahoga county. >> but we found one of every three of abusers never spent a day behind bars. >> when i opened the door he threw me against the wall. >> she's describing a terrifying night in 2014. her abuser now inside her home had a long history of abusing women. running one off the road. >> i couldn't even scream. because i couldn't even breathe. >> by now her abuser knows exactly how to play the system. five months later he abuses another. and after just 30 months in prison he strikes again. >> he has this look in his eyes that i've never seen. >> so we tracked every abuser in every violence case filed last year in cuyahoga county. nearly 700. we found eight out of ten repeatedly abused women and punishment often falls far short of the crime. >> he grabbed my throat the lifted me up. >> choking you? >> choking me. holding me with one hand and my throat with another. >> seconds later slamming her going to die. i grabbed my dog and tried to figure out if anything was broken on him. >> then a chilling threat. >> that's when he t

. >> on your regular regular has more -- ree ree michael lacey -- ron reagan has more. >> back in their hospital room talking with family members. we found far too many are dying within hours and hospitals are failing to rescue. >> i just describe it as half of my heart died when she died. because she was my right arm. >> amanda was 18 years old. >> she got accepted into the local university. indiana university. >> it was awful. >> that summer strep throat sent their daughter to the hospital. . >> what's hard, she'll walk down the aisle. i'll never hold her children. >> something went terribly wrong. >> we got a phone call that she was dead in doing cpr on her. >> dead in bed. it's how hospitals describe dying suddenly and unexpectedly. we found it's one of medicine's best kept secrets. >> this flies under the radar. >> dr. frank is a nationally recognized doctor. >> are hospitals fighting to keep the deaths from going well for the marketing to have unexplained deaths. which is essentially what these are. >> our five-month nationwide investigation found it's not happening during surgery

. >> ron reagan is digging into our votes he learned that while our state is convinced resent cyber attacks in other states will not pose a threat here the nations top security agencies are urging all states to remain alert. >>> in recent month it is fbi discovered even more attempts to breach voter registration sites beyond previously known hacks in arizona, and illinois. >> there have been a variety of scan preamble for phone shall intrusion activities as well as attempted intrusions, at voter registration data bases beyond those we knew about in july and august. >> plus secretary of homeland security is reaching out the state election officials. >> we have been working with state election officials, local election officials, to help them with their cyber security when they ask. >> reporter: here in ohio where the presidential race is a toss closely monitored. >> can this election, in ohio, be hacked? well, the election system in ohio and across the country is as secure as it has ever been. >> reporter: ohio's secretary of state invited both homeland security and military cyber security e

there has never been a bromance between the two. >> charles. >> you talk about ron reagan. ies and i interviewed all the reporters that used to be in the pool following reagan everywhere. they all told me -- they didn't like his policies. they said ronald reagan humanized them. hey boys there is donuts over there. a great place to get mexican food. when donald trump calls journalists scum like he did on that clip he is dehumanizing them. they have families. they have lives. they are human beings. and i would recommend that donald trump try to humanize them and get to know them. doesn't mean it's not going to be adversarial. the idea of the media as a beast, breaking it down as individuals covering ipg him i think it would serve him well. >> douglas is that his political strategy? maybe like you i'm not buying into the idea that the media is bad and out to get donald trump. i didn't cover donald trump any different than any other presidential candidate. >> he is a darling of the media on one hand, a celebrity what wines and dines on the media but on the campaign trail he demo

former republican national committee chairman michael steele, we're used to you, and author ron reagan. i want you to tell me your political noses. i'll start with you, michael. does your nose tell you -- i can tell on thursday before an election i can tell which way the wind is blowing and i don't think there's any velocity or direction but people are telling me it's in trump's direction. how do you read the wind right now? >> i would read the wind that way and the objective or information i can rely on is the car on the way to the airport, i was talking to the driver and he was going on about hillary and i'm thinking this guy is a hillary supporter, he's a minority voter and at the end he turns around and goes "at the end of the day i can't trust her so i think i'm voting for trump." and that kind of momentum i was like -- startled because it confirms for me that trump has tapped into this late energy. the problem he's going to have, chris, is with lack of organization on the ground, lack of real focus on the key battleground states until just recently, whether he can turn that vote

. >> with we now, two of our best, ron reagan and hugh hewitt. thank you for joining me. >> thanks, kristen. >> hugh, i want to start with you. we have heard donald trump say a number of times on the campaign trail that one of his first priorities is going to be to repeal and replace obamacare. we all remember how challenging, how long the process was to actually put it in place to get it passed. so what does that look like? he has majorities in both chambers. how quickly could this happen? how difficult will it be? >> i think reconciliation is to move exat tpeditiously but i th obamacare premiums and deductibles are riding on dining room tables with secretary clinton's ethics problems especially in pennsylvania, wisconsin. i just learned before i came out on the first time since 1928, tremble county ohio voted republican and it went red for the first time since 1928. i think that's obamacare. i believe. it's a steel town, automobile town, union town. i think that's obamacare and i think they need to move quickly. >> let me follow up with you on

ron reagan created 15 million jobs obama 10 million, they boykin her ited ter -- inherited terrible recessions and bank collapses, what do you think about the tax cut idea. >> i think that the situation that obama inherited was worse. liz: some disagree. >> they might,. liz: lay move of let's move off of that. people underestimate the level of severity that recession but let's move on. >> ronald reagan was a supply cider, president obama bailed out the banks. but the auto industry, that is what able to get back on feet. liz: get to the tax cuts. >> i'm getting there, i think, with respect to corporate tax cut, i do not think that is a right decision to make from a messagin message stand point and perception stand point, donald trump campaigned on saving working class, he is not going to do that, i think that voter will look at that say, what about us. because republicans were saying that about barack obama for a long time, donald trump coming in now doing. liz: ford the criticism about corporate tax cut, i understand what you say you bring the cash back home to create jobs, george w. bush did

happy thanksgiving to you ron reagan and giles. >> thank you. >> coming up, donald trump is stocking"roundtable" is coming up here next. you are watching "hardball," the place for politics. ay things ar. yes, ideas are scary, and messy and fragile. but under the proper care, they become something beautiful. that just tastes better. with 10 times more vitamin e. and twice the omega 3s. because why have ordinary when you can have the best. only eggland's best. better taste. better nutrition. better eggs. he wears his army hat, he gets awalks aroundliments. with his army shirt looking all nice. and then people just say, "thank you for serving our country" and i'm like, that's my dad. male vo: no one deserves a warmer welcome home. that's why we're hiring 10,000 members of the military community by the end of 2017. i'm very proud of him. male vo: comcast. >>> a sixth child has died. investigators say the 24-year-old bus driver was not on his normal route when the bus crashed. he faces several charges of vehicular homicide. >> donald trump is spending thanksgiving in florida working on hi

he had hung up on her several times and ron reagan said you could maybe hang up on my mom wants, but not twice. she said george hw bush than vice president she said we have to get rid of him and she said if you are not man enough to i will and she did, so ron reagan, their son, talks about his mother in glowing terms, terms of she took a lot of heat because she wanted everyone to love him. i think she was very brave. she really didn't care. she wanted what was best for him, always. guest: that's why brought it up because i don't think she has gotten her do. apparently, there was a photograph in time magazine of reagan seated himself between reagan gorbachev. as if he is writing a script for both of them. guest: her management of the white house was not totally unlike the management of a film in hollywood. everything is worked out. there are no questions. the costumes, three for each person in case copying all of that, you know. every little detail is worked at because it's money and i always thought she kind of followed that anyway. she was used to it and so was he. host: bill seale,

thank you, jay newton small, and thank you, ron reagan. i think i know where you ended up in the booth. anyway, ron, thank you for coming on. you speak clearly. i'll say, let's look inside the numbers now. we've seen mooucht in the polls in the last couple of days. and which side should be sweating out the race at this point. trump may have some momentum, but clinton still may have the advantage because she had the jump on the guy. she was leading a long time before trump made his move. >>> plus, hillary clinton and donald trump are making their closing arguments, fine tuning the messages on the stump and their new tv ads, which are interesting. who's got the most effective closing argument? and are there any voters out there who still can be swayed? and once again, the issue of race has sadly been socked back into this presidential race, thanks in large part to the fight -- the debate last night in louisiana, featuring david duke. >>> finally tonight, my election diary, and what last night's game seven of the world series could tell us abo

i want to bring in ron reagan. the optics to you today, what does it say to you as an observer and you know what it is like inside that white house, what is today to you? >> think of barack obama here meeting with donald trump in the oval office. donald trump is somebody who owes his political career and presidency to spreading and promoting the lives for years that barack obama was not a real american citizen and his presidency was fraudulent. donald trump's voters bought into that. they don't think barack obama is a real american. they think he's a muslim terrorist fraud. now, they see donald trump, their man, who they think is a bomb to blow up washington, d.c. as it is, sitting next to barack obama and talking about some of the wonderful things that this good man has accomplished. how are his voters going to react when they realize that many of the things he said on the campaign trail were nonsense that he's not going to be able to build a wall or getting mexico to build it and cannot deport. he cannot do some

he had hung up on her several times and ron reagan said you could maybe hang up on my mom wants, but not twice. she said george hw bush than vice president she said we have to get rid of him and she said if you are not man enough to i will and she did, so ron reagan, their son, talks about his mother in glowing terms, terms of she took a lot of heat because she wanted everyone to love him. i think she was very brave. she really didn't care. she wanted what was best for him, always. guest: that's why brought it up because i don't think she has gotten her do. apparently, there was a photograph in time magazine of reagan seated himself between reagan gorbachev. as if he is writing a script for both of them. guest: her management of the white house was not totally unlike the management of a film in hollywood. everything is worked out. there are no questions. the costumes, three for each person in case copying all of that, you know. every little detail is worked at because it's money and i always thought she kind of followed that anyway. she was used to it and so was he. host: bill seale,

but they did eventually come home, although they did so on january 20th, 1981, so as to give ron reagan the credit -- ronald reagan the credit, just a few minutes after reagan took office, the iranians released the hostages. and it was one thing after another with carter. and also there were these little things that kept happening that were seen as -- nowadays we'd call them memes. they were called, you know, symbolic of his problems. like at one point a killer rabbit emerged in his mother's pond in plains. and that consumed weeks of attention. [laughter] it was somehow seen as representative of something. [laughter] and then, you know, at another point he was a long distance runner, and he overheated, and he had to stop a marathon. and that was also seen as a metaphor. this was at a time when, you know, people liked to use those kinds of things to tell us everything we need to know about a president, that gerald ford stumbles when he comes out of air force one. and i think there was a bit of a habit in the culture which it's important for historians, we're trying to get at the long-ter

reagan's nuclear policy. they are demanding nuclear free. carrying paper ma shay heads and saying it is not a movie ron. they do the this all the time. they are going to do this to donald trump. they did it to poor hubert humphrey in chicago. some of these people are not going to change because it is their profession. >> this is not vanity. that is reaction to real concerns. we may not remember exactly everything donald trump said during the course of the campaign but we'll remember how we felt. whether it is the muslim community, whether it is african americans being concerned about the reintroduction of stop and frisk. whether it is the immigrant community broadly. i think there is real anger and concern. look, the tone on tuesday night and told have been great. so the question then becomes is he going to be the person that is welcoming to all these communities and let people know that he is going to be the president for everyone? >> i was in the protests last nights. >> i was watching your twitter feed. >> it was young people. promptly young women who are concerned about donald trump not because they are concerned about donald tru

ron. >> good morning, carol. >> good morning. so your feelings as you see mr. trump's plane about to land at reagan national?'s an incredible sight, for having been with president george w. bush and vice president cheney on january 20th, 2001, i can tell you this is a very exciting time, a very busy time. president-elect right now is on his way to the white house to meet with the president of the united states. they have a lot to talk about. beyond the 4,000 jobs in the federal bureaucracy that president-elect trump has to fill, it's how do you transition to power. how do we living in the greatest democracy in the world have that peaceful transition, the handoff of the baton from one president to another. as we look at the monitor and see the plane about to land and about to taxi, this will be a very exciting day for mr. trump as well as the congressional elected leadership as we move to a new legacy in the united states of a smooth and very peaceful transition of power. >> that's a wonderful thing. ron, stay right there. jim demint, wolf blitzer has joined me. i'm about to depart. >> this is really pretty a

ron brownstein, nia-malika henderson, kaleigh mcenany. what happened? >> it's a story of unbalanced or disproportionate mobilization. donald trump blew the doors off. he won non-college white voters by more than ronald reagan did against walter mondale. he dominated outside of urban areas. look at these maps of wisconsin and pennsylvania and michigan. there are just a couple little blue -- a couple blueberries in this red sea. everywhere outside the metro areas. clinton did not collapse in the democratic coalition, but she sagged slightly among minorities and millennials. and among college-educated whites she gained ground as we expected, but not nearly as much ground as we expected. and in this kind of just cultural civil war, i think that this election was, she fell just short in those three states. pennsylvania, michigan and wisconsin. that ended up deciding it. she lost by a point or less. she will probably, almost certainly, win the popular vote, but the size of -- by the way, it wasn't a big increase in the share. it was the margins, the consolidation around donald trump in blue-collar white america was overwhelming, hillary clinton and decisive. >> speaking of the popular vote, we should note that i

. >> i can hear that debate i mentioned wron ron earlironald earlier last in time wisconsin voted nor republican presidential candidate 1984 ronald reaganing to figure out if this state is going to flip to red state if donald trump can do that spent a lot of time here been here six times since he lot of primary in april to ted cruz, hillary clinton hasn't been here sinceprimes loss about it 13 points to bernie sanders talking to voters what they are doing, by the way, this was early voting state i remember donald trump said flip your vote if you voted early talk to some voters rightly now good morning, sir your name. >> brent baird. >> have you voted already. >> i haven't he inside of who did you vote for pm vote. >> why? >> just all you know rhetoric all the scandals everything i didn't think i had a good account to choose. >> a registered rep are upper telling me you are okay with hillary clinton being next president then? >> i know i think neither are good candidates i couldn't vote 3w5i67bd that. >> john perry. >> who did you vote for who will you vote for. >> going to vote for donald trump. >> why? >> stronger, for conservatives su

reagan of being insane and having mental problems. she's had a better relationship with ronald than nancy -- nancy had a better relationship with ron, jr than robert todd, no doubt about that. let's remember a few things. we talked about bill clinton, bill and hillary, buy one, get one free. that she was very important part of campaign. mary todd was married, was a cousin of lincoln roommate in legislature, he said, you ought to come home and meet my cousin. well, one of the most socially prominent southern bells in kentucky society, the father was a big donor of henry clay, she brought some of the speeches. she wrote letters to the editor that lincoln signed an lincoln's name. she had 3 by 5 boxes of people wholingon had done favors with who were going to help the next campaign. she was indispensable and that's part of the story that's left out of the biography. she was a difficult woman. she had a difficult childhood. mother died young and father married three times and siblings from each married. three of her half brothers fought for the confederate. she loses another son, willy, you see this very clearly in the spielberg movie. she
