they really just are the story of george h.w. bush. jim baker's first chapter in the book you will not be able to put the rest of it down. >> cell and or, you not only can comment or remember the bush 41 administration, but also someone who put the uniform back on during that era. so again, it is a fallacy that bush 41 was somehow afraid to use military force. >> it was a fallacy. we should george bush was quite the opposite he was able to control himself and who like to punch someone out or yell at someone. enough that he could get what he wanted done. without browbeating people and making friends with them. the only non- american the only non- participant in the bush administration hey wrote a chapter in said gorbachev said to him, if i did not trust george bush the snow would have not happened all of the transformation would not have happened and it could have resulted in a war. and gorbachev himself said because he trusted bush. that makes a big difference. it was not widely understood. i want to tell you a story located in latin a

he returned to government in president george h.w. bush's administration serving as assistance attorney general in office of legal counts, next as deputy attorney general, then 77th attorney general of the u.s. u.s. from 1991 to 1993. he returned to private sector from 1994 to 2017 he enjoyed great success and earned enormous respect as one of the nation's legal minds. i am sure he didn't have to deal with as many damn things in the private sector, then in 2018. he answered our country's call again. when president trump nominated him and the senate confirmed him as 85 attorney general of the united states his book, one damn thing after another debuted last month at number one on "new york times" bestseller list, to date remained on list for last 5 weeks, tonight we'll keep if on the list for a 6 week, it will make great summer reading, get a book for all your friends. and if you need any more reason to go out and get this book, one reviewer wrote, this is an incredible story of the life of a great public servant. so many lessons about

bush isn't much of a leader, george h.w. bush says bob dole isn't much of a leader, this time i agree with both of them, neither of these guys is much of a leader. i really would not have had this book add had it not been for c-span, so i thought it was appropriate to dedicate it to c-span. >> host: something aye never said out loud, my favorite part of watching c-span is during a senate vote. you get to see the interactions. i spend hours watching that, i'm afraid. in the great american political trivia challenge, you have a whole section on political insults. >> guest: yes. >> host: why did you include that? >> guest: because i just find them absolutely fascinating. you know, poll itses are very -- politicians are very good in being very creative in terms of the way that they the the insult people. i fine that fascinating -- i find that fascinating. i remember, for example, watching the house one time, and marian barry, congressman from arkansas with a very, you know, southern accent deep as molasses gets up there, and he

forty-nine states the second time fisa president george h.w. bush 140 states. democrat had to go to the middle that a democratic leadership conference in clinton. that of a and tough crime bills. the debate on the policies for over 20 years dominated by the republicans. liberal was a dirty word in those days. that's the kind of victory we need. [applause] i'm not hostile to trump i think it's 78 as a lame-duck president would want to settle scores and stuff is not the guy to deliver that kind of victory. but the harder brass tacks. does that mean everything is solved by that? no it's going to take it administration nixon was this way, oregano was this way. with educational crisis in our country. some the other factors at work there lead to the atmosphere that we the first step until that happens i don't see anything preventing this or reducing the trench warfare that we have today. final question it is a quick when we have a book signing right after this. you and john are the only two to be attorney general for two different terms would you go for 243rd. >> fir

it says george h.w. bush quit the nra and gave a mr. you flint for action. that was in 1995 when he was upset about a fundraising letter by the nra but what you're writing about is something much bigger, the need for politicians to make tough choices and sometimes politically risky choices. explain. >> good morning, john and brianna. thank you so much for having me. grateful to you and the houston chronicle for letting my voice be heard. i'm tired of being the silent majority so that's why i wrote the op-ed. president bush i'm not objective, i was his chief of staff for 25 years, i learned so much from him. he was an incredible leader and perhaps one of the most important lessons he left behind for current politicians, we elected you to do your job and to do what is right for our country and not to do what is right to get you reelected or what is right for the base, and probably the best example is the 1990 budget deal in which president bush -- first of all, i love what he did, he sent all the people negotiating that budget deal, house, senate, his own team

he said bob dole says george h.w. bush isn't much of a leader, george h.w. bush isn't much of a leader, i actually agree with both of them, neither one of them is much of a leader. i think the you can only find that through c-span, so i really wouldn't have had this book had it not been for c-span, so i thought it was obviously appropriate to dedicate it to c-span. >> host: something i've never said out loud is my favorite part of watching c-span during the senate vote, you get to see all the interactions on the senate floor. i spend hours watching that, i'm afraid. in "the great american political trivia challenge," you have a whole section on political insults. >> guest: yes. >> host: why did you with include 245 -- that? >> guest: because i find them absolutely fascinating. politicians are able to be very creative in terms of the way they insult people. there's also some overlap between that and presidential campaigns. like i remember, for example, watching the house one time, and marian berry, congressman from arkansas with a very southern accent, gets u

george h.w. bush in '91 and '92 or jimmy carter in '79 and '80, you have biden in a position where there is very little he could do to turn inflation around. >> yeah, the unspoken truth, but they wouldn't want to say on the record if there is going to be a recession, it is better to happen sooner rather than later. in order to get past this so by the time they get to re-election in 2024, the economy is zbog strong again and inflation is under control. a lot of democrats on the ballot this fall wouldn't be happy to hear that. don't want to that they would basically be sacrificed to an economic cycle that is out of control. but that is the reality. the midterms may be beyond the ability of the democrats to change the economic atmosphere for and therefore they're looking at least in the white house, they're looking at a four-year you know situation rather than just the two-year situation. >> all right. peter, still ahead on "morning joe," a move there florida that could delay the covid vaccine for c

george w. bush -- or george h.w. bush increased taxes dramatically, increased spending dramatically, and it caused a period of great economic distress. so it's not a matter of the party, it's a matter of the policy. problem is m right now the democrats are pursuing a policy of massive spending, massive taxation, massive regulation, and it's crushing us. >> host: let's hear from tony on the republican line, california. >> caller: yeah, hi, representative. i've been a staunch supporter of the second amendment my entire life, and i just can't reconcile what happened with my views with what happened at uvalde. i don't understand how you can say that we need to arm teachers, we need to have police officers at schools when the simple solution so just do some godch damn -- >> host: oh, go to ah are i on independent -- ali on the independent line in maryland. you're on the air. >> caller: yeah, thank you very much. congressman, i have to say i agree a little bit with the previous caller. i have to say that we have to listen

in what state is the george h.w. bush presidential library located? yes. >> texas a&m. so texas. yeah. >> jimmy: texas is correct. [ applause ] you guys are off to a big lead. all right, guys. your whole state is rooting for you right now. the statue of liberty was a gift to the united states from which country? yes. >> we're going to go with france. >> jimmy: that is absolutely -- [ cheers and applause ] going to go with france. >> hey, you answered one? >> jimmy: next question. which very famous italian artist painted the ceiling of the sistine chapel in the vatican? >> oh, my goodness. >> jimmy: who painted the ceiling of the sistine chapel? i'll give you a hint. he was also a cartoon turtle. w leonardo da vinci. >> jimmy: well, that's a pretty good gu a shot at it? >> go ahead. go ahead. you got it. >> is it michelangelo? >> jimmy: it is michelangelo.

h.w. bush. luttig today declared if pence had done what trump wanted him to do, the consequences would have been dire. >> that declaration of donald trump as the next president would have plunged america into what i believe would have been tantamount to a revolution within a constitutional crisis in america. >> jon karl with us live from capitol hill tonight. jon, you were on the air with us today, all day long, and i know abc news has learned that donald trump and mike pence haven't talked since last summer? >> reporter: it's been a year, almost a year since they last talked, but pence has said publicly and bluntl he believes donald trump was wrong and, quote, there's almost no idea more un-american than the notion that any one person could choose the president. >> and jon, we learned today that after it became clear that the election would not be overturned, the night of january 6th, that lawyer that president trump had teamed up with on this scheme to halt the vert if i case, john eastm

. >> justice bennett was appointed in 1990 by george h.w. bush retired in 2009. you think people are still saying that to you? >> nobody. >> really? wow. i appreciate your references to justice kennedy i'm sorry senator candidate justice kennedy was in court today. you wanted an answer the answer to that is this. what i learned is relevant to the question is senators in congress and members of congress will by and large ask what their constituents they believe want to have asked. if in fact you do not want certain questions, if they are not sensitive to what their constituents want they will not be senators or members of congress for very long. this comes up i would say look, the thing is, you are part of a decision-making process are you soon will be in this country. and so what i think is the strength of the country and what i think that first amendment is therefore and i learned this in the senate to, listen. listen to what other people say. >> does that mean you think today's senators and senators for example who blocked the confirmation of merrick garland ba

h.w. bush -- footwear. for every dollars in sales retail profit is between five cents. with returns for every dollar in returned merchandise, it costs the retailer between $0.50 to $0.30 to handle it. if you're thinking about the last few years, we've all sort of refurbished our home and spent a lot of money on home decor. we're not doing that anymore. how many decorative pillows can you buy? target and others are trying to get rid of that merchandise to make space for other things. back to school is around the corner. they need to make space and hopefully this means positive return policies or maybe even promotional discounts for consumers. >> maybe there's some -- that sounds good. if it means for sales but also it means perhaps if you're stuck with more stuff and more clutter, now you have to find somebody who is willing to take it off your hands. gosh. thank you so much. >> donate it. >>> buckle up. you could be in for some bumpy holiday travel. we're talking hundreds of flight cancell

president george h.w. bush in 1992 went from the person who was successful in operation desert storm to the person who couldn't handle the recession and went on to become a one-term president as did president carter in 1980. the condition of the economy in the next couple of years will be extremely important for the temperature of the electorate. >> julian, you mentioned the r-word, a recession. some economists believe we're already in one. the white house is insisting that a recession is not inevitable. is that the right messaging from the white house? >> obviously they can't ignore the threat and think it's wrong just to say that americans are not suffering but that's not what they're saying. the point is how deep are the economic problems and can recovery happen in the next year? we're in an unusual moment this post pandemic situation and it's not even post pandemic but economically something we haven't been through. it's fair to try to walk the electorate through why this might not be your normal reces

h.w. bush and he knows this from the company perspective and the political angles and strain right now certainly in focus for a lot of american consumers. that sticker shock, that price that they're paying at the pump and then the ripple effect there out. it seems only logical that an administration would have some questions for big oil, but give us some education, bob i mean, what really can be done? are profit margins really unacceptable why is big oil always looked at as the bad guy here? >> you know, those of us in the fraternity and the sorority of former white house energy advisors understand the brutal math of the oil market and every president we worked for in the last 20 years has confronted these rising gasoline prices, and the truth is there are no short term solutions oil is very insensitive where we say stick toey to price and yous don't turn it on and off on the spigot and you want to talk with refiners ahead of refinery season you ask the ftc to investigate gouging and you d

, clinton, george h.w. bush and reagan. day two of the mainly summit focused in large part on economic progress, the event hasn't produced new trade agreements despite the administration's growing efforts to counter china's influence. >> those countries are desperate to do business with the americans. desperate to do business with american companies. and we are forcing them to go and deal with china and russia. >> and the white house has released few details on a regional migration agreement slated for biden is, however, keeping an eye on the january 6th hearings. >> and there's a lot of questions whose responsible, who's involved. i'm not going to make a judgment ton that but i want you to know we are probably going to be a lot of americans are going to be seeing for the first time. so detail that -- that occurred. >> now, a short while ago, a reporter shouted a question at president biden as he was leaving an event. they asked if he is concerned at all about the absences from several key countries. his an

has anyone in this room ever heard that i was the white house press secretary to president george h.w. bush? i'm sure you heard it? i started out at a young hill staffer -- [cheers and applause]. >> dana: i don't get applause. i just thought it was funny that i also say it way too much and everybody certainly knows. i didn't start out as white house press secretary i was a young staffer on the hill, all this optimism super excited to make sure the issues were covered fairly and my republican congressmen could get a fair shot in the press. oh how innocent i was. it lasted like four days. you see, the easiest job in washington is a democratic communications staffer. the hardest job, preparing the tell prompter after kamala goes off script. think about it, the reporters write what you want written. they agree to keep your comments to staffer more anonymous than a list of men who watch the view. they run cover for you. even the press will write that it's not just fault that in san francisco there's looting or fecal matter on every street corner. there's things harder, dwayne johnson's per

nancy, pelosi, chuck schumer, since reagan and george h.w. bush. democrats continuously surround themselves with lawyers and academics when they get into office who never run a business. biden doing socialism on steroids. biden wants massive government spending. biden over in europe blasting the supreme court saying the roe v. wade decision was quote, outrageous. then the president is saying, how long, what are you going to do about gas prices? he is saying they are going to stay ohio as long as it takes to get putin inout. reaction to that? >> still trying to blame it on putin. i love a good democrat gas light. they run it like a social charity but needs to be run like a business when donald trump was in charge of our country. that is what americans want to see. it is successful for all americans that is the way the republicans need to go, our missaging need to go if we want to win big, win big for the country. democrats will push identity politics, push racism, push lgbtq, push abortion rights all the things that will distract from the failures o

president george h.w. bush in '92 where the economy went the wrong way, lost to president bill clinton. second, if there's a primary challenge, that always hurts the incumbent. incumbent really don't recover from a serious primary challenge. so there's a lot of risks and challenges that biden is facing to get to 2024 and to win. >> and there's an old political quote that goes something like, democrats want to just fall in love, republicans just want to fall in line when it comes to presidential nominees. do you think that holds true heading into 2024? i know we're still years away. >> yeah, look, it's not as true as it used to be. in fact, trump's ascendancy in 2016 shook some of that conventional wisdom. but it is true that overall, the republicans have done more in terms of uniting around their candidates, around their leadership, where democrats are a more fractured and divided party. it's just a key characteristic of both parties. and it becomes a challenge for democrats when they need that unity, eith

after several years in private practice, he returned to government and president george h.w. bush's administration serving as assistant attorney general the office of legal counsel, next as deputy attorney general, and then as the 77 attorney general of the united states u from 1991-1993. he returned to the private sector where from 1994-9017 he enjoyed e great success and earn enormous respect as one of the nation's preeminent legal minds, and i'm sure he didn't have to deal with as many damn things in the private sector. then in 2018 when he was undoubtedly enjoying the fruits of a long and successful career, he answered our countries call once again in president trump nominated him and the senate confirmed him as the 85th attorney general of the united states. his book "one damn thing after another" debuted last month at number one on the "new york times" bestseller list, and to date has remained on the list for the last five weeks. so i know tonight we are going to keep it on the list for a sixth week because not only will your buyre a book for yourselve, this is going to

. >> with us a donald aire the deputy attorney general under george h.w. bush and deputy assistant slitter general. also with us peter strzok. david, the testimony from jeffrey rosen the acting ag saying that donald trump called him or saw him almost every day for weeks, pushing him to say things that he repeatedly told trump were not true and trump pushing him to do things that he repeatedly told donald trump he could not do. my friend jon karl at abc calls this the greatest abuse of power, even greater than watergate. put this in the big picture. what do you see as what went on here? >> well, i think -- i think what we're seeing is an echo but a more dramatic one of what we've already seen in the other hearings. and that is in about the worst way imaginable donald trump is personally engaged in active efforts here every day to convince people to do things that would dramatically advance his goal of stealing the election over the objections of his own appointees. and so, you know, jeffrey rosen being called every day and all of these things that you've re

joining us now is former deputy attorney general under president george h.w. bush and former u.s. attorney donald ayer. thank you for being with us this morning. is the former president more likely to be charged or i guess to put it to you would you charge him? >> well, it's not for me to charge him or not charge him, but i do think the answer is that this evidence is very significant and it builds on everything we've already heard. and the most significant thing about all the evidence and yesterday was no exception is that it shows donald trump to be the principal person who is driving each phase of this effort to overturn the election and even more importantly or at least as importantly he is doing it over the vehement and direct objections, repeated objections, of his own staff and his own experts. and so on the issue of intent, we're building an enormous amount of evidence that he was the driving force, he knew what he was doing and he was going to do it come hell or high water. >> the principal force, the driving force you say. now, put that in historical perspective for us.

this is a guy who served in both the reagan and george h.w. bush and a former clerk for justice antonin scalia and widely respected in the conservative community and i think the committee is looking to lend a little cross-ideological credence to the arguments that are going to be made publicly in the public hearings, he's also i think going to offer a bit of a forward-looking testimony that looks not just as what happened after the 2020 election, but how in his view and he elaborated on this in a cnn column last month, that president trump and his allies are essentially looking to rig a future presidential election and the event that trump or his chosen successor does not win in 2024. >> do we have a sense who else will be testifying when the hearing starts? >> we don't. and an official invitation to judge ludig has not been extended yet, we're confirming that they're planning to send one out to him, but i think the committee is taking a bit of a tight lid on this as long as they can because they are still actually wrapping up the closing stag

h.w. bush who won every single primary, but the presidents who either lost the primary or dropped out, look at their approval ratings in their own party, all either at 44% for truman in '52 or in the 60s for ford and carter. joe biden at 82% among democrats is not anywhere near the level that historically we have seen. >> these are meaningfully lower. >> meaningfully lower. >> how about in terms of when you actually measure in polling where he stands in primaries? >> he's up. he's up. he's up 20 points over his nearest competitor, that's about where barack obama was against hillary clinton at this point in 2012, it's not where clinton was in 1996 who was blown out of the field but that's nowhere near where jimmy carter was. jimmy carter was trailing ted kennedy at this point. joe biden is leading his nearest opponent, looks a lot more like barack obama who cruised to renomination. >> as always, harry, very interesting. thank you for your enthusiasm. >> i try my best. >>> a devastating week

you look back to the clinton -- to the -- let's go back to the george h.w. bush administration. the first president bush in 1990-1991. the soviet union was collapsing. there were intensive discussions with george bush, james baker, the secretary of state, his russian counterpart mickhail gorbachev, the germans, helmet cole who would extensively involved in this. the question was what would be the shape of the post cold war world with the soviet union clansing? well, there were several visions. gorbachev's vision was what he called a common european home from the atlantic, from lisbon all the way, no military blocks, come on european home, a true accommodation. this was actually extension of a program of charles de gaulle in earlier years, that he -- and macron recently has been pressing something similar, a common european home from the atlantic to the yurals. with russia in a european, maybe a eurasian peaceful system with no military blocks. that was one vision. the other one, this goes back 50 or 60 years, the u.s. vision. called atlantaist, based on the n.a.t.o. alliance in

h.w. bush, right? i mean it's been a while. >> it's been a long time, neil. although i did carry the state three times. neil: yes, you did. >> i think that observation blue states could go red this year is absolutely true. it is the case in new york. you need a number of things. you need people having a sense the state is headed in the wrong direction. you talk to anybody in new york. there is the overwhelming sense we're going in the wrong direction. it is not republicans or conservatives, it is democrats, liberals, everyone which is what we need. second you need incumbent democrat that the voters are questioning whether or not she's up to the job. i think we have that as well. when you see what happened in san francisco, when you see what happened in los angeles, i think there is a very good chance a republican could win in new york this year. neil: all right. now, issue seems to be crime, on top of everyone's mind. a lot of people expected that san francisco d.a. to get tossed. they did

h.w. bush. >> a kick for the fans and they are responding. >> reporter: her majesty the queen has visited and long held a trusted alliance with the united states and its leaders. >> i bid you a hardy welcome. >> reporter: a relationship she's maintained since her first visit stateside as princess elizabeth in 1951. >> i am glad to have this chance to see the country of which the whole british commonwealth has so many friendly ties. >> reporter: those ties only strengthened over a 70-year reign. >> the atlantic unites not divides us. ours is a partnership, always to be reckoned with in the defense of freedom and the spread of prosperity. >> reporter: of the many duties of the monarch queen elizabeth serves as the head of state and commander in chief of the british armed forces. >> although she is not the head of government, she is the one in which all loyalty for every armed service man and woman is placed. >> reporter: that sense of duty boosting an unparalleled partnership. the uk has fou

h.w. bush, think, resigned from the nra when it got too crazy in the 1990s. at the same time a bun of republican u.s. senators were voting for an assault weapons ban. when republican nominated conservative chief justice warren berger said the interpretation of the second amendment pushed by the nra was the greatest fraud he's ever seen and it's changed and changed quickly along with the fantastical dangerous changes in the republican party in the last couple of decades and yes, you have dr. oz of all people having an ad in which he locks a magazine on to his ar-15 to show that he's willing to kill people? that he's tough? that he loves guns. that's the point, right? it is -- it is, when you overuse the word icon, but this is a fetishized icon of not just guns, yes, guns in general, but especially now these assault weapons which, think, by doing this it owns the libs and it is -- it is another the most grotesque way of owning the lib and upsetting these people who don't think guns ought to

. >> after the soviet union fell, and thought that ronald reagan and george h.w. bush would get credit for it. voters responded far differently and said wait a second, now that we're beyond the cold war we can take a risk on a guy like bill clinton. we don't need a world war ii veteran. since so much is driven by negative partisanship in american politics these days, so much is driven by what you're against than what you're for, i am curious -- and i know some republicans are talking about this too -- whether it's the party that's aggrieveded, whether it's the party that's aggrieved that's in the minority, in this case, the democrats, that are compelled to vote, while those who won may not have as much of an edge. >> it's so interesting. >> we'll find out this fall. >> there's four, five really key issues that, you know, democrats could run on, but the economy, that's going to hang heavy over the elections to come for sure. but there is obviously abortion. this is obviously guns. then there's january 6th. and let's turn to that now. speculation is swirling after t

he served in administrations of president ronald reagan and george h.w. bush. he was appointed by the latter who serve on the u.s. court of appeals for the fourth circuit where he served from 1991 to 2006. he provided critical advice for vice president pence regarding the role of the vice president in the joint session of congress shortly before that fateful moment. he's written that the vice president does not have the power to select the next president of the united states. he's also written that contrary theory espoused by one of his own former law clerks was, quote, incorrect at every turn. we also joined today by one of the people who was with vice president pence on january 6th. craig jacob was counsel to vice president pence. he conducted a thorough analysis of the role of the vice president in the joint session of congress under the constitution. the electoral count act and 230 years of historical practice. but he also has firsthand information about the attack on the capitol, because he lived through it. he was with the vice president, and his own life

the bushes are different. i know that george h.w. and barbara bush will blush about the idea they are include. they never thought of themselves as a dynasty. one of the reasons, the kennedy family, joe kennedy had a map and he would say, this child is going to do this, unfortunately they lost one of their sons in world war ii. that was a son that was supposed to be the president of the united states and then it went to john f. kennedy jr. after his passing. you had like a whole plot. the bushes would say, we never had a plan. public service was really important part of it was was humility and gratitude. >> he was senator bush. >> such big family. so many have gone into politics. >> they don't like to be called a dynasty. i like history programs like this. >> what do you think of "gilded age." >> i can't get enough. i loved it. >> what's coming on the channel in exactly 12 minutes? >> we have lieutenant governor dan patrick from texas. we are expecting a supreme court decision on that mexico decision. jo o'day will take on michael ben
