with me in studio is stephanie murphy from florida. ou think of president biden's message today? stephanie: i thought it was a dignified and presidential message. it was important for him to say to the staffers how much he appreciated their efforts. he was saying it to all of the folks working on the campaign. they have put their heart and soul not just in his governing but their heart and soul into this campaign. it was probably a good thing for them to hear him express gratitude. i thought it was interesting he talked about the peaceful transition of power. usually presidents do include that in their remarks when they are doing a concession speech or when there is a transition speech. in particular, reinforcing the integrity of the election was comments the were much needed. all of the accusations of an unfair election or a faulty election have gone away now that trump has won. we are not hearing much about that anymore. the damage of that messaging still exists and this was biden doing a bit of cleanup. in a democracy it is important

republican congressman from illinois rodney davis, former democratic congresswoman from florida stephanie murphy own north american correspondent anthony zurcher. looking at the figures christian was outlining their, you can look at this as kamala harris having lost the election or donald trump having a tremendous day at the office. >> you have to give donald trump and his campaign a lot of credit. there always a lot of handwringing when a loss happens that somehow, people voted against me or against that person. more times than not the majority of people voted for the winner because they wanted to, not because they had to. and i think that is where a lot of pundits and pollsters miss the fact that people actually like the job donald trump did when he was president the last time. let's not underestimate too, probably, we need to ask, would joe biden have recovered a and done better than kamala harris -- recovered postdebate and done better than kamala harris? i found it ironic in her speech she brought up loyalty after what the democrats did to push biden out of the way just to lose more badly t
