##########################################
Welcome to the second edition of tucker carlson tonight the show that is the sworn enemy of lying pomposity smugness and group think Donald Trump won the election we can go tonight but a growing number of his opponents insist it's not over across social media this weekend particularly on facebook there are suggestions that the next few months the results of this election could be undone by some technical means giving the presidency to somebody else come January preposterous you say a THC infused fever dream of the wacko Bernie left one of the many things your kids teachers have been telling him lately that isn't quite true not entirely actually everybody thinks the results are legitimate and among those who still believe that Trump could lose this election are some electors those are the Americans charged with choosing our next president the electoral college we have talked to at least one of them tomorrow i think but others have demanded the Elector cutter electoral college itself be abolished is that possible even is it a good idea that was dr. john gilmore thought about this a lot he's professor of government and public policy at the College of William & Mary in Virginia professor is great to see you tonight it's good to be here so first to the rumors that are floating around social media and they're ubiquitous like a note for my children about the last night is it possible at this late date for the electoral college to somehow take the presidency away from what's possible in a technical sense in the electors are mostly free to vote for anybody they want to once they get to cast the road as an elector but they will do that because the Republican electors who are supporting Trump our Republican donors their activists they repeat their people who spent years working for the Republican cause so for them to get there at their if you to the electoral college and cast their vote to her for Hillary Clinton or somebody else is just about inconceivable then in some states is actually illegal where they're actually required by state so it's it's not going to happen i wondered though it's just an American what do you think the message of people talking about that possibility is to the people who voted for Trump well I think those people just really disappointed and this is their way of working through disappointed in so doing aren't they also sending a really clear message we don't care about you your issues the election results willing to subvert democracy because we don't like the result of they are i don't--there's subvert democracy but they're definitely disappointing they're trying to.
They would be happy to undermine the legitimacy of Trump selection yes that's what the.
Maybe that's what they're trying to do and say if he is morning as president he's not really a legitimate president so you say that the electoral college itself ought to be abolished y will be either two main problems with it one of them is that you get the situation like this where one candidate wins the popular vote right and it looks like Hilary Clinton is likely to win with a margin of about a million and a half votes a lot more than Al Gore got into thousand but out but Donald Trump has a 60 state substantial lead in the electoral college votes and that's just difficult to explain it's difficult to explain to people why the candidate who won the popular vote is going to be the president.
I mean because it happened pretty recently 16 years ago we're all kind of familiar with this and we knew that going in correct that's right and there's a second reason why the electoral college isn't good actually number of them but the second most important i think is that it means that candidates aren't competing for much of the country so states like California Texas Illinois New York New Jersey are completely off-limits for the candidates at one point Trump went and state some campaign events in Mississippi and Texas people were making fun of him for doing that because everybody knew that he was going to win those states why campaign there so i think we much better have it isn't the opposite true i mean if the popular vote were all that mattered then the population centers are the only places that anyone can painter painted campaign to pay attention to and yet you know our cities are the places where all the jobs are all the money is for all the prosperity is and the rest of the country has nothing in you're suggesting taking the one thing they have left with political power away from them are candidates already campaign in lot plenty of places aren't big cities as I have to because Electoral College yeah so that I don't think would make that big a difference in where you can pick up that away why would I ever leave Chicago New York Los Angeles ever because there are plenty of votes in dallas and houston okay in Israel and in Midland Texas as well their their their votes all over the place but they're also you know there's a big country out there between Georgetown Malibu that great dark space we never visit from Washington mean all those people would be ignored now.
Well they wouldn't be ignored but more attention will be focused on cities but that's where people are and I think it's important for candidates to campaign in front of people.
Everybody's vote counts and under the current way we elect presidents a lot of people.
Practically don't exist for the election huge states that we know we're gonna go for one party they're out where the other are completely ignored by the candidates and I think that's unfortunate you're saying that like sophisticated affluent coastal culture doesn't get enough attention in our society so to say not in the elections not gonna get back to okay it's over what is not paying enough attention to Barbra Streisand our friend she gets plenty of takers play well on that we agree professor is great to see that I thanks a lot for welcome alright vice president-elect Mike Pence spent the day huddled inside the gilded confines of Trump Tower in Manhattan with the president-elect mr. Trump and the transition team Fox News correspondent Rob Schmidt is outside the building right now mid-tower his news of staff shakeups rob was gonna yeah are you know it's been an interesting day here at Trump Tower and actually senator Ted Cruz just left the tower just a few minutes ago maybe Donald Trump's biggest rival in the primary race all those nasty things that were said and here he is today paying a visit so you know that's politics for years as strange as it can be sometimes and i think that as surprised as everybody was with this election last week to see Donald Trump take this election and win it it appears that his staff was as well and that's why this transition right now isn't going as smooth as you would maybe think that it would certainly not one of the smoothest that we have seen I it's about 4,000 jobs more than 4,000 jobs to fill here Tucker and 1 insider told our producer here that it's like Game of Thrones with this going on everybody buying for those spots it's cutthroat it's as dirty as politics can be that's what they say it's like inside of this of this campaign right now so it's very interesting and those important course of those jobs is going to be the cabinet the president elects cabinet who is going to be filling those major positions.
We're gonna give you some insight into that a lot of names floating around at this point and loyalty of course as we have seen with Donald Trump has been Sookie those who are loyal to him are always pretty well taken care of maybe nobody more loyal than Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions to an insider told us today basically gets his pic of what he wants to do because he was so loyal to Donald Trump even from the get-go this thing he was always a strong backer never wavering on his support for the president-elect he could end up being defense secretary that's the way it's looking right now maybe attorney general as he is a lawyer we're gonna have to wait and see on how these things come out also former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani could wind up being Secretary of State he's a strong candidate for that position speculation that he would be attorney general actually went to rest last night when he killed that idea here's a campaign manager for the Trump campaign Kellyanne Conway with more on that he addresses he said he would not be attorney general he is I think actively thinking about secretary of state that decision is ultimately Donald Trump's but we know he'd be an incredible Secretary of State we know hehe would represent this country very well around the world as he went to implement Donald Trump's vision will be P elect mike pence had a very busy day today he is heading this transition now he took over for a new jersey governor chris christie who really has had a tough year at of several months and after the bridgegate trials came to an end i believe last week when two of his top staffers were found guilty that really looked bad and that really put a bad taste in the mouth of a lot of people around the country and of course here in New Jersey and New York where we followed that trial much closer that nearly destroyed the new jersey governor's reputation and that is going to push him out of this administration at this point a big day for Mike Pence though the Vice president-elect tomorrow he's going to sign some documents allowing the Obama administration to share information with the Trump transition team and this afternoon Donald Trump did receive his first daily intelligence briefing that of course a big thing as well Donald Trump Trump's campaign finance chairman stephen munchen could be the Secretary of Treasury Trump of course has been all about lowering taxes that's been his big thing they're saying they could take taxes back levels we haven't seen since the Reagan administration technical center back to use but thanks i appreciate it and this just in more lunacy from the ivory tower Thomas Jefferson remember him maybe the wisest man in history founding father here in the US author of the Declaration of Independence our third president and a top it all off the founder of the University of Virginia apparently is no longer welcome on his on campus group of about 500 uva students entitled in a historical and at least one professor a petition the university's president to stop quoting mr. Jefferson because he once owned slaves for once and god bless her for this the president of that school Teresa Sullivan push back a little bit she said this quote quoting Jefferson or any historical figure does not imply an endorsement obviously of all the social structures and beliefs of his time such as slavery and the exclusion of women of color people and women of color from the University and quote because after all if you ran away from everyone who once owned slaves in history least one great world religion would be in big trouble well it's time for tonight's Twitter storm a report from the hurricane I of social media1 hashtag trending on Twitter President Tom Trump's first tantrum.
It started on the left of course but it quickly became appropriated by some on the right to begin tonight on the Left so-called media raptor tweeted this can't change name of electoral college to trump university cage wrote this what do you mean I can't turn my presidency into a reality show and twitter user one Twitter user called guy actual name said Putin called me a Cheeto this point conservatives on Twitter responded and it this way grant row tantrums are what babies do like what college kids do when their candidate loses much Scott in South Carolina said he burned and ride it because something didn't go his way right that was the participation trophy crybabies and Pamela more tweeted this anti-trump protesters block ambulance I had a patient die because it was stopped by protesters have been verified that leave it to you to decide who won having thoroughly secular Manhattan billionaire went over so many evangelical voters will introduce you to some of the Christians who helped elect Donald Trump that's next also Hillary's campaign is gone but her email scandal lives on possibly forever jason Chaffetz chairman of the house oversight Reform Committee joins us next to explain why his investigation may continue.
Well early in the campaign you'll remember Donald Trump was mocked for appearing confused by just how many Corinthians there are in the New Testament come election day today evangelical voters care what they did it didn't affect their votes they supported Trump overwhelmingly as part of a part of a groundbreaking new series where we explore life outside of Washington New York and Los Angeles Fox News correspondent John sincerity headed out the first Sunday after the election to talk to some of those voters Republicans have long courted Christians especially during the primaries but Donald Trump one white evangelicals by a record eighty-one percent in last week's presidential election unlike a lot of previous nominees who sort of backed away and kept those voters and their issues at arm's length during the general election he embraced them and pull them close it may seem an unlikely marriage for a candidate who has been twice divorced and often criticized for vulgar banter they were never under any illusions that Donald Trump was one of them but conservative political activist ralph reed says evangelicals had a simple request that he shared their issues agenda and that he would fight for it and during the course of a very tough campaign he persuaded them on both of those points a top their agenda composition of the Supreme Court and abortion evangelicals feel very strongly about abortion enough Roe versus Wade would get overturned but would be my hope the issue of sanctity of life was paramount.
He came out strongly pro-life Hillary definitely is not and the fact that he's pro-life is my main reason I'm not necessarily voting for a candidate i'm waiting for the platform dr. Michael Youssef who runs a worldwide television and radio ministry says evangelical voters don't just care about where their candidate stands on the issues but the people he surrounds himself with I know Mike Pence's a great man and starward supporter of of life he's been that when he was in Congress and so I really had no hesitation whatsoever voting for the ticket all conservative Christians played in this election disproved any doubts about their staying power according to Hollywood actor kirk cameron it did not turn out to be the final hour for evangelical christians in america but potentially our finest hour many Christians see the election is a victory for their core beliefs and values but in order for their agenda to reach fruition evangelical leaders understand this is just the first step and they need to remain actively involved in the political process Tucker thanks Jonathan.
Well we can go Donald Trump once one such a large percentage of the blue-collar votes that even the Hillary campaign seems surprised by it one person definitely was not shocked as our next guest is a former Democratic senator from the state of Virginia who some believe may wind up in the Trump administration his former Senator Jim Webb enjoys us right here on the set and ready to see you soon so you haven't said he voted for you think it's private you're not for Hillary and give a speech states the american conservative sponsored by them so we can assume you're at least not hostile to the can to the president-elect um so the question that people are trying to unravel in Washington is how exactly did the democrats lose their hold on the white working class which they claimed for generations.
Well I've been talking about this for since before I even ran and that the base of the Democratic Party used to be working people regardless of race ethnic Orion ethnic identity or sexual orientation etc that was the Roosevelt agendas and the Truman agenda and over time and i think particularly over the last eight years the democratic party has moved into interest group politics and in many cases of white working people have become the whipping post sarwar and I think what you saw in the selection here is white working people in these rural areas seeing that someone actually was articulating the fact that they had become disenfranchised and that's why they gravitated toward Trump in my view and it's considered embarrassing here in Washington to tape take up the cause of that group and a lot of analysts are thinking why would they align with a billionaire from manhattan your species is something I thought really interesting open on the screen if we could.
You said more than sixty percent of immigrants from China India to the united states have college degrees while fewer than twenty percent of whites from areas such as Appalachia have college degrees but to be white is in the law and so much for missing forum debate to be specially advantage privileged as the slogan goes well being a so-called minorities to be somehow disadvantage and you go on to say why wouldn't people in Kentucky be offended by that stupid premise.
Well I think what has happened i mentioned in there it is that from the Immigration Act of 1965 for the ethnic and racial makeup of the country has dramatically changed but the laws with respect to affirmative action and diversity have not i mean the laws were originally designed to help african-americans move away from the but what they call the badges of slavers a 13th amendment i say slavery amendment it is expanded to the point where it's anybody who doesn't happen to be white was included in these diversity programs and you see a natural reaction you i mentioned Clay County Kentucky the poorest County in America known supports county in America's ninety-four percent white and wouldn't if you were in that county with a 40-percent poverty rate wouldn't you think this is reverse discrimination but you're not just that but your privilege if I mean Hillary Clinton said explicitly your privilege just by virtue of your skin color national is a person who has said that that sort of become a mattress and it's affected i think the the affinity of white working people.
Toward the Democratic Party you in a negative way so i think what you're saying is a lot of these voters regardless how they felt about Trump or so alienated by the Democratic Party and its views and its policies that they just couldn't vote know you have a lot of people not who were analyzing what happened on some are saying well it's the economy it's not just the economy is not just guns it's not just even the evangelicals with respect to their vote it's a dignity issue it's also a fairness issue with respect to how they see the government working in fairness fairness in terms of government policies when you have a diversity programs that exclude people simply because they are white and white cultures are very stratified by the way the white you know when you have a racial makeup for your statistics people tend to forget that the people at the bottom in in terms of income and education have been frozen out of a lot of stuff in this country so my last question you were a Democrat represented obviously the Commonwealth of Virginia has a democratic you still are Democrats far as i know what are your friends the Democratic Party say when you say things like that I've been saying for a long time you know and and you know I there were years ago I made a example in speech 10 years ago they were talking about how you get the white working vote and they put up pieces of legislation rather than what i said to them is this isn't that complicated.
They don't have aligned themselves with the Democratic Party because they don't think Democrats like them and I think what we're seeing right now finally is the ability to discuss this issue in an age of political correctness where you can't even say the word white working people without having someone Blanche right that's a shame.
Centerstate to see it thanks for that appreciate you refuse well the other day the new york times appeared to admit that it's election coverage with slanted on fair has the paper learned it's lesson turn over a new leaf emerged reforms from all this that today's headlines in the paper and you can decide for yourself as always we actually told you all about how the New York Times has apologized for his coverage of Donald Trump during the campaign in a way paper is pledged to rededicate itself to honesty so how's that project going a day in there is look at some of the New York Times headlines from this morning quote from staff shakeup slows transition ok next Trump is criticized for hard right pick any getting warmer from the fringe to the White House radical subjectivity into the headline next Putin and Trump agree in a phone call to improve ties all right the obligatory Putin headline and finally here's something all american voters are deeply worried about after Trump's win what's next for Mexico that answers the question that you've been wondering about joining us and adjust all this been dominant she's publisher at the Federalists and Stephen Dinan our friend from the Washington Times is great to see you both.
So eat your longtime newspaper man you've been in this business your whole life i have when you're sitting around the budget meeting trying to figure out headlines to some pipe up and say you know I wonder how this is going down to Mexico is that like even in the top thousand questions you have about election result I no no no he said look you know these guys the new york times I actually interpret their statement yesterday a little differently i didn't see that as an apology for their coverage i saw that as look their readers expected them to be much harder on Donald Trump then then they were and the readers and frankly expected to be softer on Hillary Clinton when they were they've got a balancing act to do there and I saw i interpreted the last line of that where they said we have a duty to our readers basically saying hey look we know what you expect.
We're gonna make sure to give that to you it's very seven but there are only so many people who live in 82nd broadway did you know what i mean so like I mean they have in mind a very specific reader when they're doing their stories now you know they do and I to I understand what you're saying about being harder on them and software on her but i think that what they actually really expected was for the New York Times be right to be right about what was going to happen a selection i think the real problem that they have here and illustrated by these headlines even if they may talk about rededicating themselves to fairness or something that is a bit more responsible in covering politics.
The fact is they don't know what they don't know they don't know the facts of what it's like to be a trump voters to live in a trump county to participate in the kind of social activities and cultural activities that those voters participate in and I think the real problem is that the new york times as along with so many other media organizations got so in their bubble during the course of this election that they were incapable of covering it fairly incapable know i think that i think that's right so I mean the criticism he were holding the New York Times to a higher standard and I'll plead guilty that I do it's an important newspaper and they ought to be trying harder to be objective and other people tried but when you put words like fringe or hard right into a headline entirely subjective words that have no fixed definition at all that are only in the eye of the beholder.
You're making that oral statement when you go back to the second taxed or they did on Donald Trump in taxes at the end of october and you know that story read far more like a column than a new story there is some point during this election which I when it became clear that Trump actually was a headed for a victory in the Republican primary a lot of news organizations sort of step back and look and said well we haven't been hard enough on him and they went ahead and they started crossing a lot of those boundaries and a lot of those lines they absolutely did that and you know I think what they think they're going to reevaluation whether that was whether that was the correct to do or not that's obviously the statement you saw i got to be a i guess i would say we do have to remember the new york times are the ones who also exposed the Hillary Clinton secret emails or publicly so they were uh to be fair fairly tough on both candidates are struggling reports but this is how car crashes always begin by going too far in one direction and wildly overcorrecting into a tree it's also a situation i think on of frankly with a lot of the organizations not just the times but I would particularly point to this in the last month of this campaign a lot of media organizations made the calculation that the likelihood of Hillary's when was so huge that they no longer sent people out into the field to talk to a lot of the voters who are out there who had strong opinions in the opposite direction and I think that that showed in the way that they covered this especially in the waning days of the great i mean this is always the problem you know what you know you know what you're gonna find and then with no capacity left for surprised you find what you think you could find even if it's not there.
You said a minute ago and I think it's exactly right that we have for a very long time held the New York Times to a higher standard expect them to do about you.
Any other news organization out there I no longer think that's true i think they you know they have a readership they're responding to and like every other readership that readership has become very polarized and they are responding no that's totally right and I and that's why I'm not as mad at the Washington Post I've always thought it was a piece of garbage newspaper and now it's been proven that you don't mean so it's like I'm not I'm not crestfallen to learn that are you.
You know it's it's from my perspective I think they're responsible journalist who work at both organizations but i think that unfortunately their views which actually were a lot more colored had a lot more gray area to them we're not the ones that were on the front page they were the stories you have to look at and now but after all of this is over you can go back and you can find here and there these different dots that could be connected that showed hey Hillary Clinton's really going to underperform of on african-americans hey there is something we all know that white working-class across middle America that's different than maybe what we've seen but they always let that twenty-five-year-old sneering Ivy League guy who doesn't have any experience of anything right the page 1 stories what do they do that's why you end up with these hydrogen's there so a color guard politics that's great thank you very much for your time and checking some sanity into this conversation all right.
Hillary Clinton may not be the next president you're not going to be but House Oversight Committee Chairman jason Chaffetz his Congress is not done investigating her use of a private email server and an alleged pay-to-play scam at the Clinton Foundation demonstrate this incessant showing great to see you okay thanks for me so this is going to continue why.
Well we got to get to the truth it was never about the political targeting of Hillary Clinton but she did create one of the biggest security breaches in the history of the state department so we have tens of thousands of documents we still haven't seen you have more than Hillary Clinton involved in this you have dozens of people within that the bowels of the organization of the undersecretary management patrick kennedy who says he was able to bury documents down into the bowels of the State Department's by misusing a FOIA designation Freedom of Information Act designation you still have an open investigation at the state department itself so you we have a a whole array of that statement Association meal that will not come to a close when power changes hands from Obama Trump well it should I mean you have people who have security clearances that obviously violated those but have not been discipline in any way shape or form that i can tell at.
State Department of course we're going to look at that we'd be remiss to just dismiss it.
It wasn't political targhee targeting at the beginning so because there's been a political election why should I just drop it.
Well that's right in fact this the stakes are lower now because she's not running for a while we have one of the biggest security price ever of course we gotta fix that.
How did they migrate all of this classified information out of the system you know you're not sitting at one of the mechanics of it yeah you can you know that you know because you can't sit at one computer and all this one is classified this one's not classic somebody had to physically take that and put it on another system either upload it on a thumb drive trying to retype it what's the answer and you ask him directly.
Well that's why they always tens of thousands of documents from the department of justice and from the state department itself so here's a mechanical question that got kind of got lost in the noise of the final week of the campaign but I think about 650,000 emails on the infamous winner computer okay and the FBI says it evaluated them in a relatively short period of time I get it takes me weeks to get my passport renewed how did they do that I and why did it take when they were looking at 30,000 it took a month to get through it.
They also were very if you go back and actually read that letter they only looked at Hillary Clinton's emails while she was Secretary of State well the committee is very interested in what she did when she set up her server which was actually the day she started her Senate confirmation and what about all those months and years after the fact because we still here in 2016 getting ready to celebrate New Years we still don't have the documents that go back to 2009 if you were president newly elected president would you keep coming on as FBI director I I am NOT in the position to make that director of confidence and press i do have confidence in it might I have nothing to believe that he was politically motivated I he had a duty and obligation to actually present to Congress the fact that he was because of our July hearing that he was actually continuing the investigation when he said that it was I had concluded it was obviously not they're going to spend money and resources he had to notify Congress and so to that regard he did the right thing huh.
So I mean he's looking at it from a civilian perspective you're getting whiplash going back and forth what is this about but you think at every turn he did the prescribed thing the thing that you would have done had you been i come to a different conclusion than he did but I still want to learn more the investigation we have allegations of a quid pro quo I'd like to hear more about that but in terms of notifying Congress making himself available to Congress yes but until i have the tens of thousands of additional documents that we don't yet have I can't get to the conclusion you want for that okay Trixie xrm thanks thank you for coming on well there's no question Obamacare hasn't turned out as expected Oakland concedes that you get so screwed up one man who designed it joins us next plus Geraldo Rivera why those college kids you've seen leaving protests against Trump may know even less than you imagine they do pretty great story stay tuned.
So what's next it's a question we plan to answer regularly on a variety of topics but tonight it means what's going to happen next with Obamacare for more than a year Donald Trump is vowed to repeal and to replace that unpopular law now he says he may keep some elements of it in place either way though President Obama's signature law isn't working as promised and virtually everyone agrees on that question is why what does it mean joining us now is Obamacare architect dr is equal to manuel dr me know thanks for joining us I appreciate it it's nice to be there the Obamacare is the biggest piece of social reorganization passed in my lifetime and yet it is never too far as i know had majority support never strong majority support from beginning until now selling just the rear lighting hold on didn't you get what I've never seen a poll that suggests the majority of Americans support obamacare so why didn't you get buy-in from the public before reorganizing their health care about the public likes many of the provisions you poll sign your child and your parents plan until a min 26 almost eighty percent of the public like that you know pre-existing disease exclusions almost seventy-five percent of the public likes that are closing the doughnut hole for Medicare beneficiaries seventy-five percent of the people like that you're right like I'm well aware of that but the only provision the shot get Levi in fourways did you ask me a question.
I'm answering the question ok so let me answer the question please a little respect head uh they are the only provision that scores under fifty percent is the mandate and people haven't understood that if you want no pre-existing can a diseased condition exclusion you have to have a mandate those are inextricably linked so the public of course would like they're taking eat it too but i cannot happen before you continue to patronize the public let me just let me just make one thing really clear so the poorest segment of our society is young people in fact this generation is the poorest generation of its age in three generations are the poorest and yet we're forcing them to buy into the system to subsidize the health care of the old and the sick also the richest segment of our population why is that fair and why would you expect them to like it.
Well first of all young kid kids are subsidized in the Obamacare plan if they don't make above a hundred percent of poverty they go on Medicaid and they get almost cost free healthcare and if they are uh on the low end of income they are very heavily subsidized to get health insurance they're not spending a lot of money for peace of mind and protection and I think that is a good deal.
One of the reasons i would say no position if they don't want to get sick but they can't get to conquer you gonna let me finish the bike but one of the reasons I'm sorry I actually I don't really get your deal that's why you're trying to force them to do it right am I missing something I just try to get a straight answer from you you're trying to force them to do something they don't want to do.
You're telling them it's a good deal but they don't believe it's a good deal why don't they believe that no up and a lot of them haven't explored what the deal is.
They've heard your rhetoric that it's not a good deal and they haven't actually seen most of them if they're not really a saying that I've convince people that Obamacare isn't as great as it really is is that what you're saying now there certainly been a lot of very bad rhetoric and very bad attacks on it rather than give it its fair shake are you gonna blame my window radio i do think we can actually make the deal better i've made proposals out there how to adjust it you know if you were a business and you launched a major initiative you would revise it as unintended consequences of car as you see that there are problems but the problem here is Congress has allowed us to make those a bit coarse adjustment it meself carers and that instantly in your house level points i get of the mission i get it i just going to let me finish the answer i do i interacted i have not ordered actually treat me like I'm finished.
Let me just say this is my outfit to add to what you said the president began this with a joint speech to a joint session of Congress in 2009 in which he said Obamacare will be the end of the discussion of how to organize healthcare in this country i was sitting right there and he said that he promised us that it would be perfect upon arrival shouldn't someone at least acknowledge that that wasn't true before we move on to the next generation of Obamacare we're just going to keep lying to everybody that is totally that is totally on true.
New statement the president never thought it was going to be perfect upon to regional level and democracy no legislation is perfect all Islanders do that when this up in it I am did everyone to be at once we would have to address down the line that we would learn about problems and we have to fix that Congress just was the Republicans were totally in transition about figured he believes you now dr. as they arose we all watch this happen and I'm sorry you would have much more credibility if you just say you know we were kind of wrong about some things you can't keep your doctor it's more expensive than we thought it was going to be healthy people have two subsections actually it's a lot more expensive because in comments on my party only show my sister and I would expect more from some Walker who said every doctor my sly taco you're going to slide I gave you to put up here okay are you showing I'm sorry with their slide right there but it doesn't care doesn't mask your demagoguery doctor and you just blame the Republicans who had not one thing to do with this legislation as you know and you discredit yourself by doing that and I'm trying to have a lot to do with it but she does not get not helpfulness okay grabbing sorry shows you what health care inflation has been and the fact that health care inflation has come way down because ok.
Partially because of Obamacare and that difference between the two cars is four thousand dollars for a family that's important savings that are rock at that president made possible in a same-store it's a great deal that just too dumb to get how great it is i I've heard this before.
Thanks a lot dr. appreciate your coming on thanks.
The vast majority of people arrested at the inside Trump rally a protest turned into a riot have one thing in common and no it's not just hygiene and high THC levels in their blood or alter Rivera joins us next to tell us what it is and here's something new more than seventy percent of anti-trump protesters a lap arrested in portland oregon last week did not vote in the state of Oregon KGTV dug into state election records and good for them and found at least 79 of the 112 people taken into custody during those demonstrations were either not registered to vote in oregon or did not cast a ballot there in the 2016 election for one protest span 5 nights and devolved into violent riots that caused more than a million dollars for property damage and scared the hell out of everybody here now with his thoughts on that is Fox News roaming correspondent a man whose room far and wide across the fruited plain.
Our friend Geraldo Rivera to her are you up i gotta say I'm probably less appalled by this in your cuz i think you've got a right to protest even if you don't vote but you disagree but first of all I hope that our interview goes as smooth as your interview with dr. manuel that preceded it you can't blame the Republicans for a law they didn't have anything i don't i'm sorry you're sorry and i also have to say congratulations on the big do here and I love your confirmation here cat.
You know it's really working that's why I left listen I I don't like you I i believe that I have nothing against protest / say unless you inconvenience innocent people grievously or break other people's stop by i was a renowned or notorious protest however you want to characterize it 90-68 1969 1970 civil rights anti-war so there is a you know a perfectly American tradition of nonviolent protest what happened in Oregon though was despicable it was thuggery it was people who not only didn't vote uh some of the probably voted for just inode.
Or a gary johnson just as bad or almost as bad.
I not only that they were ironically the bitter irony they were breaking stuff in a city and in the state that went overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton and against Donald Trump so they they had no logic to what they did I think there are protesters with a specific beef in this country Tucker and you know I could have this discussion anytime you want I think that these DREAM Act students who now are threatened with deportation even after president obama gave them a different deferral from deportation I think that those kids have a right to protest because they are living in abject terror now that their lives are going to be disrupted but pretend i'm done they're not let me just to be totally clear you'll concede that the president's order was illegal A&B they're not citizens so it's a little weird like if I showed up in pick a country latin americans that I'm staying here and i'm going to take taxpayer-subsidized services and if you don't like it I'm gonna throw a rock through the window of starbucks people say that's kind of unreasonable actually was not look like a free no ruling that the initial 700,000 I young people who were brought here as children by their parents through no fault of their own and Italy right law-abiding lives here in the United States I've seen no ruling that that was either unconstitutional or only are illegal.
There is a stay on the expansion of the program to their parents by one federal court judge in Texas that has been affirmed by the united states supreme court and will be litigated but what I really impressed in humanistic Lee about these children now.
Well I think everyone know why they're going back to a country they've never seen at least in their contact I get it but here's here's my macro problem with this the real concern of American politicians ought to be American citizens that's who they're elected to watch out for and yet on the left their main concern c street people who are not here legally so it's like where your sympathies mean there are American citizens whose lives are affected negatively by the presence of people here illegally dozen people here illegally or bad people but it means your number one priority is looking out for your people Americans again I reject I reject your your contention that they impact the lives of citizens negatively that's not the way I see it the vast majority of the people who voted for Donald Trump live in areas we're undocumented immigrants do not reside they most of them never had any kind of interaction with an undocumented longer let's and certainly not these children these are suing reason why i'm not against the children and I fees are American Indians and Isis every way they performed let's examine the failed the accident that their birth if all of a sudden your kids school finds itself flooded with people who don't speak the language doesn't mean they're bad people they've been great people they probably are great people but it's a massive drain on resources and all of a sudden they're canceling gym in music and your kids experience becomes less good necessarily because there's a limited pool of resources so I also there's no one to this is just wrong it's silly dancing i was born in i was born on this island Manhattan Island there are 500,000 undocumented immigrants in the five boroughs of the city you never hear about them you don't hear about the more I because it shows ok he's flamboyant why don't people mind their business they work hard they deliver pizza at two o'clock in the in the morning and their goalie you know when the wind blowing up your pants i mean i think that you have to have a balance company i like Donald Trump i I've known her forever I wish him every success in the world but I think now is the time for him to reassure people these are the people that he's talking about weight building his wall or in his deportation force ok these are kids but what about me why do you think the Trump got the overall majority of working-class voters because they're the ones whose lives are affected by the president people in that sphere people like Steven King and I are starting right at the get-go of the presidential race they make these people into boogeymen that bet that the that the voter can first of all their fear all there now thinking on this hopeless I'm sorry I'm calling pc on you no more boogeymen people are out of time unfortunately it's great to see you Rama cool though good luck man good luck then I didn't see it coming up the reviews are in from last night's debut and predictably they are cruel as hell mean tweets are next.
All right now it's time for a roundup of hostile viewer responses as rendered by Twitter you may notice a theme and some of these so pay attention Scott tweeted this great job I didn't recognize him that'd be me minus is sec frat guy haircut Zephie dog said Oh Tucker why did you let them do that to your hair you were you and now your plastic not considering that in fact i was plastic before now even more so I he writes this wild tucker carlson nice grown-up haircut but you don't look like yourself blessings on your new show Thank You Brenda Sultan tweeted fox news to say quote another spot for Tucker you don't know what to do with this jerk that might be true and David he lamented britt hume departure from this desk is not the only one who tweeted this is taken me years to perfectly imitate britt hume sardonic voice and slant not sure I can do.
