you're a showman here that something so. what does it take to be part of a funfair like this. idea because of family tradition. you know we've been operating the bumper cars since one nine hundred thirty six my spines on my son is here to the right he's in the fourth generation zone it's a classic in every fun fair and at the extra best one that's really got the best present definitely a classic bumper cars have been around for about one hundred years so why are they still popular for keeping things going to. get a sense of the high dollar there are a few things that make bumper cars special. first of all you drive them yourself so you can go wild or be nice and tame whatever you like. that's my devotion second to people can ride in a single car at the same time as the divine so you can invite someone along any time you want to feel well done and then there's the element of seeing and being seen on flirting and all that. is and all together that's part of the bumper cars edition. i think so flirting is part of it of course you can flirt by ramming someone else's car on purpose

a bit of the showman in him, our champion austin. pasha and jennie... do your best. here we go.

qaeda i think a less serious connection to the syrian a rise in an extremist negative i used as a showman or militant groups is kind of is is a kind of banking he was kept at ising on this on this side or the two and investing on that in order to create his own his own supporting or support base and not and he was successful to a certain extent into about after going into hiding a less year was arrested two years later at beirut airport while trying to board a flight to cairo then there was little doubt he faced serious charges but his trial in a military court along with thirty others has been repeated be delayed and human rights groups have questioned how some of the evidence was obtained despite the doubts a list here is expected to be sentenced to death for his role in the battle but whether he's hanged is unclear. as you know lebanon has been carried out how little punishment two thousand and four and it that is he see what these judges in this military courts to rule as their sentencing for all of us here he will need to go to the president in order to get his signature to sign up w

one of the things i realized he is a great showman and it's great to rile people up the most modern candidates to realize that you can do say something else will bear risque and it says the best thing around. and that donald trump knows nothing. he knows absolutely nothing about governing. to spend his entire life whether he became president of the united states so rock star patti smith said when she became a rock star she was ready because she spent 20 years in front of the mirror interviewing herself. donald trump did not do that. he didn't know people or have the connections are understand the process and was unprepared to be president of united states. so what i knew from the beginning is when he became president i said it could happen i did not predict that. but one thing i was absolutely certain from the start was that donald trump would be defined not by what he did but the people he appointed dead -- did his presidency isn't about him but how he distributed the power of the presidency because of the decision were not right all that television ever does it show me every single thing tha

experience as a soldier in the civil war and indian wars, and his relationship with fellow marksman and showman captain jack crawford. this is about 90 minutes. >> thank you, jeremy. thanks to the buffalo bill center of the west for holding this symposium. thank you to c-span for filming it. this is a wonderful opportunity to get the story of buffalo bill and the west out to a broad american audience. that is the goal of all of us in this business -- to try and inspire others with a story of the american west and show why we love it so much. this morning, we have three folks who are going to inspire you and make you fall even more in love with the american west. we are going to have them speak in alphabetical order.

a bit of the showman in him, our champion austin. pasha and jennie... do your best. here we go.d by... followed by... and... that's what we want from you. austin. may i have ivy league, $200, please? austin. -what is brown? -right. ivy, $400. austin again. -what is princeton? -good. $600, ivy league.

he is a built of a showman like his boss and he's in front of a reporter and that plays into it but ihink he misses their friendship and was looking forward to getting this behind them. >> how long has he known president trump? years and years? >> more than ten years, yeah. >> okay. emily, charles and michael, thank you very much on that. i want to get back on this earthquake, breaking news, this powerful earthquake, 7.1 rocking mexico. new video just in. let's go back to allison chinch chinchar. >> again, just for a refresher, this was a 7.1 earthquake, about 75 miles give or take southeast of mexico city. this is where the earthquake was located. this is mexico city. okay. the depth of this earthquake was about 51 kilometers deep, give or take, about 32 miles. in terms of earth quakes that is relatively deep but not deep enough folks far away wouldn't be able to feel it. this is where the epicenter is located. this is mexico city. you can see the yellow color indicating people there felt it and likely encountered some damage from the earthquake. the question now is to what extent wa

it is a little bit of a bravado, the showman. that's a recurring theme that we're hearing.e turned over the congress. oh, we'll embrace the russia tie. that's just talk. overpuffiery or whatever. you are don't take it at face value. it is just talk. >> well, rod blagojevich is in prison for just talk. jennifer, give us a sense of the meeting today and what can you report? >> i think they were trying to do two things. of course they're trying to collect information and fill in the gaps. it sounds like that was only partially successful if it was successful at all. they're also now having a conversation, or taking testimony from donald j. for the first time which means he is, 1,0001 charges are a way to get a charge on someone if the underlying information doesn't pan out and doesn't lead to charges. so i think today was important. now they can use the statements today, whether they were omissionses that can prove he knew things he didn't tell or he made affirmatively false statements. they may have a charge on him for the first time based on what happened in the hearing. >>

. >> he was a master showman in that regard. >> absolutely. >> we saw nancy reagan on the other hand, and even after that, she was not amused. she seemed so uncomfortable in that photo op. what was her relationship like with the press? >> she was much more weary of the press and much more concerned that she would appear in some way -- that she would be made fun of in some way. she was concerned about her, somehow like much more concerned about her self image than president reagan was i think in many ways. >> he also had, again, all of that experience as an actor. when he wrote, when he was asked about his time in the white house and whether being an actor was impactful in helping him excuse his job as president, he wrote, quote, there have been times when i was in the office when i woshded how you could do your job when you hadn't been an actor. were there two sides of him? the one in the white house and the one behind the scenes? >> watching all of the footage to make the film, i was struck by how much he was the same behind the camera as in front of it, or when the camera is turned

trump is a showman. he says i'm going to have to give away a daca. a good brand, you're okay. i'm going to have to make a deal on the debt ceiling. i'm going to have to leave the iranian deal the way it is. what i'm going to do is a lot of hillary clinton golf ball because of her head, knock her down, do all of this stuff to appeal to the guys on the bar stools right now and they'll love it so i can get away with the other stuff. >> i think that's three-quarters right. and the reason i say three-quarters, i still think there are aspects of donald trump where he is going to push that envelope and try to get his way. this speech is a good example of that. you could tell the trumpisms, calling out north korea and kim jong-un as a rocketman, putting his slangy twist on it to let the folks in the room know yeah, i can do the diplomatic thing but i don't really want to. >> who is that for? >> two people. i think it's the base and i think it's for trump. i think it's for his own self satisfaction that he cannot be controlled even no moments like this that t

. >> that's a showman's instinct, though, not a president's instinct. >> well, and look.his president -- >> it's not a presidential instinct is probably the better way to put it. >> and it's certainly not this president's instinct. part of all presidents have gotten into trouble when they've waded into controversial issues like race in kind of ad hoc ways. remember president trump early in his presidency got into hot water when he wayed into teighe arrest of that black professor in cambridge. and that kind of got him into trouble because he did it in similar ad hoc way. obviously, different context and different thing. but i think that we make a mistake if we think -- not that i don't think there are political reasons that this will be good for him. but i don't -- my sense is that this is some strategic thing. that he has done. i mean, it may be that he's trying with the tweets afterwards to sort of kind of continue and keep it going, but i don't have any reason to believe -- >> no, it's more of a savant situation. i think that his gut tells him that, and then the left al

one of the thing is realized as i was covering him during the 2016 campaign, is that he is a agrees showman, fabulous at getting in front of a crowd of people and riling them up because he does something that modern movies and modern television does but most of the modern candidates don't realize you can do and that is be a bad boy. right? say something that is just a little bit risque, a little beyond what you are supposed to say, and people who have green horribly bored with politics, politic is the most predictable thing around, thought here's this guy who says things you're not supposed to say and that was very, very appealing help figured that out and that get to him through a long way. one thing i recognized early on is that donald trump knows nothing about governing. i don't say that be -- this guy knows absolutely nothing about governing, and unlike ben wikler or a lot of other people, he hasn't spent his entire life thinking about what if he became president of the united states? the famous -- the rock star, patty smith, said that when she became a rock star, when people wanted to

>> well, first of all roger stone is the premier showman. he put on his serious blue suit, showed up at the committee and was subject to the interview and did a very good job, was very serious. no pomp and circumstance. no unfurling of invective. and of course he went out afterwards and went back to the roger stone we know and some love and some boent. but let me just say this. he's writing a book on how a gentleman should dress. he might want to read a book on how a gentleman should act. >> hear hear. >> well, there you have it. besides fashion and manners, what'd you get down to in there? >> what was most interesting to me was the fact he just comes out, flat out says he doesn't believe russia was interfering in our election. he doesn't believe the russia military intelligence. if you take that position even though you have the entire intelligence community, all 17 agencies saying very specifically with high confidence that that was the case and certainly the intelligence that is classified completely supports that, so if he says that no t

he was a rugged frontier scout best remembered as a sequined showman who could have stepped off the stage with liberace. or elvis in vegas. a living artifact after pie noor past playing out his role in a world of telephones, motion pictures, automobiles, airplanes, skyscrapers, and finally at the very end world wars. cody's life 1846 to 1917 spanned a period of astonishing change. and he participated in much of that change. his father was a martyr in the fight to keep slavery out of kansas. and as a teenager, he fought in the civil war. he rode for the pony express. [laughter] paul: hunted buffalo for the railroad, where he earned his nickname, scouted for the army, won the congressional medal of honor in a fight with the sioux. took the so-called first scout for custer. and a celebrated duel at war bonnet hat, as it was originally known, creek in 1876. and fook a final curtain call in his western adventures at the time of the terrible tragedy at wounded knee. that fight at war bonnet creek in which there was only one casualty, that fight is the defining episode of his life. and i want to
