that was the foundation of the republican party. today, you might say it is white married, christian people that are the core constituency of the republican party. increasingly, a constituency of groups that are not college graduates. the democratic party has been a coalition of out groups of people not thought to be typical americans. who are often very different in their values and so forth from each other. so, the democratic party has had great splits. and also, when it's coalesced together, it has been a major majority party. having two parties of those two different characters has been one way that politics has kept together a country that has always had diversity. it has always had ethnic, regional, religious, economic, racial diversity from its very beginning. we didn't suddenly become diverse in the last 18 months or last 10 years. we were diverse when we were british colonies in the 18th, 17th century. the republican party, you know, it was supposed to disappear after barry goldwater. it was supposed to never be elected --

why in the world would any republicans stay in the party? >> well, you have to ask yourself if the republican party won't fight to defend the legacy and the policies of donald trump, if the republican party won't unify against this sham impeachment, what much good is it if it won't stand up for the american people, if it won't stand up for trade deals that put our workers first? why should we be expected to have loyalty to an institution that doesn't seem to have loyalty at times to its dynamic leaders and to its members and to the people of the greatest nation that's ever existed? so i believe that we ought to win within the republican party. that starts with removing liz cheney as conference chair, demanding more of our legislative leaders and then liberating ourselves from the corporate pac money that has dominated the decision making in both parties for too long. and, by the way, we don't have to reinvent the wheel. president trump showed us how to do it. if we continue to follow that path, my suspicion is we'll be back on a winning stre

with a republican party like this. do you negotiate, right, because lindsey graham is basically trying to paint the president right now into a corner and saying you better negotiate on this covid relief bill or your inauguration speech will ring hallow. or do you bulldoze, considering the fact that they won't take accountability for what is happening inside their party right now? >> i think what we've seen especially about a decade ago, tweflg years ago when the republican party found itself without the presidency, and with minorities in both chambers of congress, was that standing up to most anything that was put forward was a fruitful political strategy. i think the question we confront now, is that the case now with the current setup in which we may not have a president who is quite as polarizing as barack obama was initially. do republicans have more of an impennsylvania tuesday to actually come together and do things like the coronavirus relief bill. i think that it is a really big question for the democrats, but

to save and redirect the republican party. well steve at this point i think i and most of the people the national security officials who signed the letter last summer are saying that we would support joe biden consider ourselves to be independent you know we're certainly people who served in former republican administrations and proud of it service for the country but you know. as i said who hear a number of the people before signing up to these letter said you know i i want to be clear i don't consider myself to be a republican anymore so you know it just shows how far the party has strayed you know can only for me personally steve i don't really see light at the end of the tunnel right now so i don't see anybody who i see as a good leader of for the republican party you know certainly mitt romney has been saying absolutely the right things at very very bravely but i don't see him wanting to lead a new republican party and i don't see any other people out there who who want to reclaim the republican party the way it used to b

trump touted the republican party as the party of law & order. after last week, what happened to the mantle of law and order? guest: americans want law and order whether there democrats, independent or republican. what we need to do within the republican party as we need to show we are as committed to law as to order. that is the great problem with president trump. when he uses those words, the emphasis is on "order." when we use those words, and democrats that say they too are the mantle of law and order, you have to be equally supportive of law and order. there is a lot of emphasis placed on the republican party. in a democracy, people form parties according to their -- gs andsaw with the whi federalists, when one party can't represent those people they will find another vehicle. fallshe republican party apart, there are millions of centrist voters who can be called upon to support a new political organization that will be short of the toxic activities of this present and would be able to talk about law and order simultaneously. what is importa

, changed the republican party. it's a party that brought me over. it enlarged the base. you know why, lou? because donald trump put americans first. these republicans who are in the senate need to step up and identify themselves as to where they stand. if not, i go with president trump. if he starts a new party, i and 75 million plus go with president president trump. lou: two or three facts, if i may, leo, and get your judgment on them. one with, kevin mccarthy said that the president bore respondent for the mob that assaulted the -- responsibility for the mob that assaulted the capitol. two, mitch mcconnell said that he bore responsibility and that he would make it a vote of conscience in an impeachment on the president and his future. and, thirdly, ronna mcdaniel, the chair of the republican national committee, as rnc chair lost, lost the senate control, she also lost the presidency. and she has been reelected to head the rnc. in point of fact, all three bear tremendous responsibility for what we saw ensue from

the republican party chair says that's not the case. few hours after the capitol hill insurrection, 8 of 9 republicans in pennsylvania's state congressional delegation voted to throw out biden's electoral votes. now in arizona, republican state representative introduced a bill to give legislators the ability to revoke secretary of state certification of voting results anytime before inauguration. this after the republican party censured cindy mccain, doug fluke, and doug ducey. with the gop showing no signs of changing and in many states hemorrhaging voters in a result, we'll get to that in a bit, how do democrats seize the moment. i will ask the new chair of the arizona democratic party after this quick break. e arizona democratic party after thisui qck break introducing fidelity income planning. we look at what you've saved, what you'll need, and help you build a flexible plan for cash flow that lasts, even when you're not working, so you can go from saving... to living. ♪ let's go ♪ (burke) at farmers, we know a thing or two beca

senate donald trump will retain his hold on the republican party. so our title asks how dangerous term will remain let's begin with the president and the immediate future sariah nelson how great is the threat of violent attacks in the coming days i think it's very high mean that's you can see that with 20000 national guard and other troops that are basically deployed to the u.s. capitol i mean that's what is it at this point 5 times as many as you have in afghanistan which is a much more dangerous place just to give you some some point of comparison so it's very dangerous and certainly the authorities there are reacting in that way it's quite the lockout in washington from what i understand people are having a really hard time getting back and forth going to work and obviously we saw yesterday at the capitol how people are we saw how people are having a hard time getting into the capitol at all unless they go through metal detectors if they're even if they're members. you said in your opening statement that trumps ability to threaten us democracy is

republicans don't like the republican party. i think there are a lot of reasons for that. there were people who did not like the military adventurism and wanted more inward focusing party, a party that did not care so much about wall street and cared about working people. immigration obviously was a really big flashpoint in a way that the republican party sort of ignored the populace views of the voters. i will admit, having ignored that wing of the party for so long, it got really energized. donald trump recognized that and took advantage of it and was able to really swallow up the party whole. what you are saying now and across the country is the new wave of republicans are trump republicans and he is probably going to have an influence on the party for a really long time. anybody who thinks that just because he is out of office means he is off the stage or gone is kidding themselves. members of congress who have been elected recently are all very trumpy. you watch the debate on the floor about impeachment and they are all sin

he is the leader of the republican party. you know, i hate to break that news to mcconnell and the boys on those marble floors of the senate, but i think they've got a shock or two yet to come. congressman, great of to have you with us. congratulations and ourti thanks for what you are doing there in the state of wyoming as well as back in the swamp. thanks. congressman matt gaetz, a great american. >>> up next here, joe biden's dictator-like use of executive orders that has even "the new york times" saying, whoa, joe! we'll take that up and more. the political savant himself joins us, ed rollins is next. please stay with us. ♪ no one likes to choose between safe or sporty. modern or reliable. we want both - we want a hybrid. so do banks. that's why they're going hybrid with ibm. a hybrid cloud approach helps them personalize experiences with watson ai while helping keep data secure. ♪ ♪ ♪ from banking to manufacturing, businesses are going with a smarter hybrid cloud, using the tools, platform and expertise of ibm. â

good when you are talking about having a patriot party outside the republican party. as a democrat, i am willing to work with uniting with republicans so we can bring our country back together as a whole , because america is one of the best countries in the world. well, is the best country in the world. host: does the rnc support a patriot party? then you can respond to her question about unity. guest: no, the rnc does not support a patriot party. we believe the republican party is the home for the most freethinking, independent-minded, free enterprise focused people who want to continue on fighting for the america first agenda that president trump has put in place on the conservative principles and values that we hold and have held dear for many years as the republican party. we believe it is the home for many more americans, but we have to earn the trust of people like shawna, who says she is a democrat willing to work across the lines, across the political aisle to get things done. that's what we want. there are people like vernon jones, the state representative ou

oh i believe the republican party should take the step of purging every member of the republican party who endorsed this right and also these election fraud theories are just sheer nonsense we need to get back to a world in which objective truth is understood and recognized in politics we can agree and disagree on a number of things but when you have objective truth it's so obvious that joe biden won this election by an overwhelming number of votes both the electoral college and the popular vote for people to be perpetuating lies and then saying that they're speaking for the republican party is an embarrassment to the republican party and so the party was to survive that i have to get rid of all these people not just donald trump. and also people tell lies what you just heard there about democrats indorsing violence which just didn't happen. mr paine i want to ask you about the standing of the united states especially for its european allies after all that has happened during the trump presidency i want you to take a listen to what germany's foreign minister said about the impeachment

which no one expected and so the talk after november was about the republican party big becoming a multi racial working class party taking the working class away from the democratic party that is probably more difficult now after january 6th in a very white mob essentially that seem to have a racial agenda in many cases well and donald trump repeatedly playing the race card yes but again he drew more african-american men to the republican party and that election has batiks and so some of the more moderate figures in the party my old boss marco rubio governor nikki haley i think their hope was then to take what donald trump did to bring more working class voters and you have soften the edges i think that becomes again much more difficult given what we've seen over the last week but that was their hope and watch to see whether donald trump is able to be an organized political force in republican politics once he leaves office surprise super quick question because i do want to take a look over all this means for biden and harris but let's say that trump going forward did split away from the

and it's not so much that trump took over the republican party, it's that the republican party completely capitulated to him. they're all united in believing that in order to survive politically, and not lose in a primary, they have to stick as close to him as possible. even when he puts out racist tweets, you cannot criticize him in public. even when he engages in the most reckless behavior, you cannot break with him in public. >> narrator: with his party behind him, trump was emboldened. he seized an issue that would continue appealing to the extreme elements of his base: immigration. >> we want our country to be a sanctuary for law-abiding americans, not criminal aliens. >> the closer we get to 2020, the more this president and his advisers are saying immigration is our fire. th's the fire we put in our torch. >> narrator: the shocking centerpiece: "zero tolerance," separating children from their parents. >> now democratic lawmakers are voicing their anger over the family separation... >> young children are pulled from the arms of their mhers. >> the growing outrage over families being

that was the foundation of the republican party. today, you might say it's white married christian people are a sort of core constituency of the republican party increasingly of the groups that are not college graduates. those have changed over time. the democratic party has been a coalition of people thought to be often very different in their values and so forthm from each other so the democratic party when it's coolest together it's been a major majority party. i think having two parties those two different characters has been one way politics has kept together a country that has always had diversity, ethnic, regional, religious, economic, racial diversity from its very beginning. we didn't suddenly become diverse in the last 18 months or the last ten years. we were diverse when we were british colonies in the 17th century. so, the republican party was supposed to disappear after barry goldwater. supposed to never be elected a conservative denominated president until the ronald reagan and it was going to be out when bill clinton

i think we have to see the republican party renew itself you know i'm a democrat but i would like to see a strong adversary on the other side and what we have seen is someone who has directed the republican party to destroy democracy small teacher actually living and democracy it's a republic but it's also a democracy and so i think the health of the republican party is going to be critical so what happens in these next couple of weeks what we see with mcconnell as he looks at his legacy and we see these other republicans look inward and say just like scott you know is this is this a country is this the leadership that i want to leave behind so that the health of the republican party is going to be important and i think accountability is critical to this is run out of time i hope that both parties will reform themselves or else we're going to continue down this endless cul de sac i want to take my guess i want to thank our viewers for watching us here darkie see an xterm and remember. i can't show you my face but i'm going to teach you my story in 1993 and this man was sentenced to d

his hold on the republican party is very tenuous. and he wants to run for '76, but he confuses nixon's appeal with nixon's policies and he was by and large he was fairly conservative, although not as conservative as reagan. is that for trump? >> i don't know. >> just sent the train through. so he pursues all of nixon's policies. he continues detente. he continues his fiscal policies. he continues appointing liberal jurists to the bench. and this creates an opening for a conservative challenger for '76 and some looked at it but reagan was the only one serious about it. >> but then the reality is that carter beats ford by a narrow margin. >> extremely, less than 2%. >> right, so -- >> and ford gets 240 electoral votes. >> right. >> if he carries ohio -- >> he would have had it. >> ohio -- carter carries ohio 1976 by 6,000 votes out of over 3 million cast. he carries -- of course the teamsters are headquartered in ohio. so there's a lot of suspicion that the teamsters kind of -- they wouldn't do that, would they? >> no. and mayor daly w

over party and republican party lost its way and it became all about a personality and power rather than poll icies and people. >> i want to talk about our colleagues reporting. jamie engall is reporting former president bush is calling his former vp, his chief of staff is -- he's calling dick cheney tomorrow to thank him for his daughter's service. thanking him for liz cheney's service, that mention in that statement was no accident, right? >> that mention is the point of the statement, do you think that we would know if george w. bush was planning to call dick cheney and wish him a happy 80th birthday? would they have put out a statement, no, it's the fact of the second point of that. and mark knows the man better than any of us. but george w. bush, when he was done with his presidency, he left the political arena in many ways. he didn't want to raise money for the party. he was not going to do the bill clinton thing and be out there as a constant campaigner. >> didn't criticize obama. >> he's donated to a few candidates. individually, didn't criticize obama. lived up to that trad

party that's been the only republican party i have ever known and i'm 44 years old. there's always been an acceptance of that fringe element, of that white resentment politics. and that's not saying every republican is racist. but they certainly were willing to overlook racism or get in bed with racist to pass whatever larger agenda they were interested in. we shouldn't be surprised about being here. if you look at back in the 1960s, the kkk and the white citizen's council were after the same thing. the white citizen's council got upset when the kkk would get so violent that it would no longer allow that plausibility deniability. that's where we are right now. what we saw on january 6th, what donald trump has done, he's are a moved that have a near of respectability from a party that has long signaled white resentment. so this is what we have now. and this is a party that is not sought to expand democracy, that, again, i'm 44 years old, as long as i can remember, sought to restrict democracy, sought to pass voter suppression laws, sought to make voting more difficult

that enemy, she insinuates, is the republican party. and alexandria ocasio-cortez says -- it's always good when we begin a sentence that way, isn't it? -- she says senator ted cruz almost had her murdered three weeks ago. that sounds like a criminal affairs doesn't it? if -- affair, doesn't it? not a matter for political rhetoric. but as the left intensifies its attack on the gop, their leaders seem flat-footed and detached, those gop-ers. not a happy situation for the republican party broadly and at large who still consider, most of them -- nearly all of them -- former president trump to be the party's leader. former president trump said after yesterday's mar-a-lago meeting with house minority leader kevin mccarthy that he will work to improve the good fortunes of the republican party in 2022. is the former president not learning from his previous mistakes? we'll take that up with former trump white house chief of staff mark meadows and proud trump are republican leo terrell here tonight. we'll also be talking with pastor robert jeffre

and what you're telling us is the republican party, the washington republican party, put out campaign ads against democratic members of the house like you using qanon messaging specifically in the ads in order to turn out their vote? and, oh, if that happened to lead to death threats for you, that's just part of doing business as a republican now? >> well, i actually confronted the head of the nrcc on the house floor after this happened and he said, it's not my business what people do with our ads. so they washed their hands of it. but again, it's now coming after them because as you pointed out, that mob, they were as angry if not more at the people they consider to be republican traitors who voted to certify this election as they are at me or any other democrat. >> congressman jimmy gomez has introduced a resolution to expel marjorie taylor greene from the house of representatives. kevin mccarthy has said he will have a private conversation with her. what should be happening in this situation? >> we're going to have two, at least, censure resolutions next week. i'm leading one again

the republican party and the establishment of the republican party seems to want to get rid of trump. just days away from that and all they have to do to keep the magic going in terms of racial working-class party is pickup the issues he helped them see the light on, whether foreign policy and having a more sensible foreign policy and not having what doesn't make sense or economic policy. if they just pick up those fights, they get to keep everything going long term. nancy pelosi was very smart to try to get republicans to sabotage here and unfortunately, it seems that some republicans are not smart enough to figure out that they are falling right into a trap. >> laura: right into it, mollie, dinesh instead of solely prosecuting the lunatics, the criminals who over in the capitol injured police officers last week and some lost their lives, hideous. the left wants to go further. my "angle" explains where they want to take this. plus, the liberals to condemn political violence today, but we all know what you did last summer. andino has some thoughts on that coming up. hi, i'm pat and i'

it may indicate the future of the republican party. jim jordan and others, prominent supporters of donald trump, jim jordan of ohio, calling for her to be removed from leadership. is that likely? emily: she has said she will not be stepping down. the vote on leadership was already held for this congress. she has this position and is going to be going forward with an eye on this divide we are seeing now within the republican conference. trump supporters that voted to oppose approving the electoral college vote. not just for impeachment but those who supported the electoral college. they have played and in addition to this vote, there's a capital that they have to prepare for at the capitol, but a stripped down inauguration at some point that gets back to business with violence they haven't seen against the federal building in a couple of decades here. i'm curious as to what the security measures are to ensure a peaceful transition of power. emily: this was not something we had seen in previous inaugurations for president. i haven't meas

the future of the republican party is the other thing. a number of republicans are trying to figure out what a post-trump presidency looks like for the party, none more so than majority leader mitch mcconnell, making it clear that he may not vote for impeachment but will consider it when it soon heads over to the senate. >> you think about, phil, the president-elect biden and mcconnell, they're talking. they're trying to develop a good relationship. i assume they will at some point. but trump and mcconnell, they're not talking at all and have no relationship right now. it's an amazing development indeed. phil, we'll get back to you soon as well. i know you're working your sources. even with a truly historic second impeachment looming, president trump is defiant. our chief white house correspondent jim acosta is joining us. i understand you're getting new information from your sources. >> reporter: that's right, wolf. just to pick up where phil mattingly left off, i'm talking to a source familiar with the relationship between president tru

it will be the democrat and republican party. i'd just love to see the republican party be strong again and aspirational again. >> you say if it gets to the point you're ofstracized. matt gates is going to wyoming to campaign against liz cheney. and kevin mccarthy is going down to florida. how can you say it hasn't already happened to an extent? >> so, you know, all these trends are fairly in the arc of history recent in the republican party. donald trump was president for four years. and i think a party in essence surrounding him when he's president, that is understandable. when you're out, though, and especially after we see things like an attempted insurrection on the u.s. government, that's where i think it's going to take a little time, but we're going to see, does the party just double embrace him or is there a slow awakening? is this a saturday morning after a pretty bad friday night bender where our eyes are just like looking around, what did we do last night? and that's my hope. that's what i'm trying to bring light to p
