Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Your World With Neil Cavuto 20161125

About an hour ago, three hours shy of the mark it abruptly ended and everyone went home. If you look behind me up and down michigan avenue, known as magnificent mile. All you have are shoppers coming and going. The retail is back in full force but we did have hundreds of demonstrators who came out here today with an organization calling themselves the Chicago Alliance against racism and political repression. And they said they wanted to block stores. We saw them block the crate and barrel and nike and apple store. They made it difficult for people to come and go. They wanted to advance their cause and bring a lot of pressure for the creation of the Citizen Police Accountability Council and they did that and got a lot of attention to their cause. They advocated a lot of different causes, theres always that pileon effect and talking with some of the people out here, very active and eager to engage in this process. Did they vote . The answer was no. Very eager to be part of this process, not necessarily that eager to be brought to the political process. As you can see now, its back in retail full force. The demonstrations have dissipated. Thank you so much, who are these protesters hurting here . I want to go gop strategy, former Union Organizer and attorney christy they are out there in the streets protesting as you heard mike say. How are they advancing their cause at all . They are really not. You know, they are getting some coverage which media is getting people to hear what they have to say but noz an effective way to do what they would like to do. They are hurting the people who want to go shopping who are People Living in the neighborhoods with them. They want to go for black friday, not hurting businesses. And they dont really have their goals defined very well, they are all over the place in what they actually want to achieve here. They are protesting president elect donald trump and protesting racism and you know, saying that cops are being racist and targeting minorities. So they are a little bit scattered and then as we just heard, they are not out voting. Thats when they have the race to get the point across. They are making life difficult for anybody who wants to go and shop in chicago. If you think about it, their economy is critical to their well being, sometimes they lose sight of the big picture in all of this. If people cant get in and out of the stores, thats not good for the community. Youre right. Im from chicago and lived a matter of a couple of blocks from where they are protesting or where they were protesting. I want everybody to think about this number. This is a very powerful number. 47 is the representation of africanamericans between ages of 20 and 24 years old. Those folks are largely unemployed. The folks that are happened to be employed and may have a job, lucky enough to have that, they have to think about what these protesters are doing in terms of these individuals employment. I agree with the fact that the black lives matter theme largely hasnt had real policy prescriptions and way to get it done. Thats problematic on many levels. If they are going to do Something Like this, maybe they should say, lets bring all folks to the table to talk about these very systemic issues in our community. Youre getting back to sort of the root issue that all lives matter, not just black lives matter, we should bring everyone into the equation, improve life for everyone. Go ahead. The truth is that theres a specific need to protest officially sanctioned murder of africanamericans in our society. Theres a specific need in chicago to protest torture, forced confession, Police Beatings stuart, stuart, i think the studies have proven this one out. I have to point this out. Let me finish. Over and over again, in fact, we have this is ridiculous. You cut me off and i just started. This is ridiculous. If anything, Police Officers right now are the ones come on. 57 in the number how many need to be murdered before we see it as a problem . And yes, all lives matter but right now we have a specific problem with black lives. And im sorry, but there are isnt the answer that will you let me finish, make a point. Okay, finish but i want to point out the answer to that is not necessarily there is a policy recommendation in chicago and thats the protest against the mayors twoweek what youre demonstrating exactly what black lives matter does, theres no policy specific and you just yell. There is a policy specific. Chicago there is a policy very dangerous and think it vem bls that of many folks that protest like occupy wall street, im pretty sure you were a part of that movement. It gets nothing done. This has its roots in the picketing and boycotts of the Civil Rights Movement in the early and mid60s. Thats where this demonstration has its roots. Were on national tv talking about it and talking about the murder of black kids. That is a victory just that were raising it and talking about it. You see this as a plus because here they are commanding some time on national air waves not just that. Going on and looking at a live picture right now. Why do you put words in my mouth. Trish this is ridiculous. Forgive me, stewart, if thats not what you said. That thats not the only thing the protesters what are you trying to say then . The people is their city to look with compassion on black lives and black kids and africanamericans and to do something about systemic violence against africanamericans. The point the panel is making is there are other ways to do it. There are other ways that you should get out and vote. There are. Why are they taking to the streets to protest going about it in a sensible way. Very unfair. You pick out one or two people who didnt vote then say that to everybody. Thats very unfair and not accurate at all. Stuart, i would ask you join with me to come up with policy solutions to target i hope we need criminal justice reform. I would be happy to do that. Which im a part of and these are Law Enforcement officers and prosecutors, all of the folks that come together to make these very important decisions and i think if you have and im a lobbyist, i deal with it on a regular basis, on the hill when it comes to these issues, thats when we can actually get something done. Its important when its utilized in the correct way. Theres other ways in which you take that National Attention you just mentioned and get policy done. Thats a difference i agree, couldnt agree more. Im glad we could agree. Before we go to his point, if you want to raise awareness and say there are racial issues we have to address, you dont do it by adding more racial tension and saying were only going to block stores that have wait, wait. Being murdered and if you want to look at the facts, stuart that is an issue. And what is more important to protest than that. Good to have you all here. Thank you so much. Black friday protests, they are not stopping scenes like this. Take a look. Youve got shoppers all across the country today and actually battling it out for door buster deals sales expected to hit 20 billion today. In the thick of it at a macys in herald square. Reporter its crazy here. 27 billion is the expectation for sales today. Believe it or not it would only be the second busiest. The busiest comes the saturday before christmas, last minute shoppers. If you look at the numbers here, so much of this shopping is having online. Yesterday we saw nearly 2 billion in in online sales and this weekend its going to be about 9 billion. Its really such a small piece of the overall pie. How big is that overall pie . The National Retail federation says its 655 billion. Got it. How much of that is happening online . You wont believe this number. Its really such a small part, 17 , 111 billion, thats it . Can that be . That means shoppers arent coming into the stores but, trish, they are. Macys told me this morning 16,000 people streamed into the doors behind me and fortunately we caught up with some of them, listen. I will say this they are not aggressive towards you. Not so bad. I was expected it to be wall to wall people. It was worth coming out, but ten times the people in here. Crazy busy. People are a little touchy. The cashier was telling us about somebody took a shoe and hit somebody on the head with the heel of it. Reporter chaotic or not, im going to go with chaotic. Because the discounts are really good. The retailers know the brick and mortars that shoppers are armed with smartphones. We price compare in the store and compare everything to amazon. Com and you know what, amazon, trish, they started their black friday deals on november 1st. So as a result, you have average discounts of 60 here at macys at jc penny and kohls, the obvious question, how is black friday treating the retailers . They were discounted on wall street today. Ill show you the Major Department store chains and you can see they have down arrows, sears and jc pen knee and nord strom, just to name a few did you go shopping today at all . Not yet. Not yet. But you know thank you so much, lauren. Lets get to wall street right now. More records. The dow, the nasdaq and s p 500, all finishing the week at record highs. It also closed at an all time high, now up 13 just since the election. How is that for optimism. Are trump aides demanding a public apology before mitt romney before he can be seriously consider be for secretary of state . Plenty of protests against police today but whos protesting for them, for the police as they come under fire . Well see you back here in two.

Is depression more than sadness . Its a tangle of multiple symptoms. Trintellix vortioxetine is a prescription medicine for depression. Trintellix may start to untangle or help improve the multiple symptoms of depression. For me, trintellix made a difference. Tell your healthcare professional right away if your depression worsens, or you have unusual changes in mood, behavior or thoughts of suicide. Antidepressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults. Trintellix has not been studied in children. Do not take with maois. Tell your healthcare professional about your medications, including migraine, psychiatric and depression medications to avoid a potentially lifethreatening condition. Increased risk of bleeding or bruising may occur especially if taken with nsaid pain relievers, aspirin, or blood thinners. Manic episodes or vision problems may occur in some people. May cause low sodium levels. The most common side effects are nausea, constipation and vomiting. Trintellix did not have Significant Impact on weight. Ask your healthcare professional if trintellix could make a difference for you. When i was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. I just snapped a photo and got an estimate in 24 hours.

It starts dissolving the instant it touches your tongue. And neutralizes stomach acid at the source. Tum tum tum tum smoothies only from tums do trump aides want mitt romney to apologize for saying things like this. Im not going to support donald trump as the candidate would you vote for Hillary Clinton . Im not going to vote for Hillary Clinton, for sure. Mitt romney, the 2012 president ial candidate im not going to sit out. Ill either vote for a conservative who runs or write in a name of a conservative. Our very own ed henry is reporting that some of the president elects Transition Team want a public apology from mr. Romney before hes seriously considered for the secretary of state position. He said pretty bad stuff and did that big speech out in salt lake. He didnt just not vote for donald trump but called hm a phony and fraul. Fraud. What im hearing from conservatives, he cant say my bad, never mind. He has to do something very public, apology, regret, something significant that says i got it wrong. You cant represent the president of the United States, not just here but abroad when you called him a phony and fraud. Do you think hes that close though . I have a new piece of information the last few moments. I talked to someone who says that president elect trump and mitt romney had been in phone contact over the holiday. Why is that significant . Well, the transition is still moving forward but they are sort of winding some of it to a holiday halt and saying the meetings pick up here in manhattan next monday, its holiday time. Im told donald trump is still working the phones and spoke to romney. It was not a call saying im out of the running. Hes still in the running and im told if he wants to be the secretary of state, there are people close to donald trump who want the public apology. There are people like Newt Gingrich who have been outspoken saying we carried a lot of water, we were there and loyal with donald trump and want Rudy Giuliani to be secretary of state. And giuliani was there all along, even some of the more difficult times. That said, as president , you want the guy or gal, whoever that is, that best for the job. If you stack up the accomplishments of mitt romney and Rudy Giuliani and maybe there are dark horses as well were not even talking about. General petraeus is one talked about for example, that could be a third way here. If the aides are locked in this dispute over giuliani and wall street journal this morning is saying it is a buiitter rivalry. Giuliani is being talked about as director of post 9 11, all of the accolades for Rudy Giuliani, the way he handled the issue of terror, however he is public in making the case hes visited dozens of countries and all of the International Business dealings and consulting hes been doing. Some of that brings up conflicts of interest but on the other hand, hes visited dozens of countries. Mitt romney has been pretty quiet since the 2012 campaign. In terms of who has a better resume, thats an open question. And obviously as president you want whoever is best. But i would also think theres a part of you that wants to be surrounded by people that will do what you need them to do and that includes some loyalty. And Kellyanne Conway tweeted during thanksgiving to say a key part of it is loyalty. That seemed to many like a shot at mitt romney and someone that close to the president elect saying maybe somebody more loyal. Who is that loyal person . Probably giuliani but there could be others as well. Its a big job and big position and it will be very interesting to see who he gives it to. Thank you so much. As president elect, donald trump continues to build his cabinet, liberals continue their attempt to build a case against his win. And now jill stein has raised enough money to fund recounts in three states. Where is all this going . Were on it. And the number of Police Officers shot and killed skyrocketing this year as these antipolice demonstrations continue. Who is actually protesting for the police . My name is pam. Im 51 years old. When i was diagnosed with pneumococcal pneumonia, it was huge for everybody. She just started to decline rapidly. I was rushed to the hospital. My symptoms were devastating. The doctor said, pam if youd have waited two more days, you wouldve died. If id have known that a vaccine could have helped prevent this, i would have asked my doctor or pharmacist about it. Oh, thats lovely. So graceful. The corkscrew spin, flawless. His signature move, the flying dutchman. Poetry in motion. And there it is, the baby bird. Breathtaking. A sumo wrestler figure skating . Surprising. Whats not surprising . How much money heather saved by switching to geico. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. Liberals refusing to give up. This time is is harvard law professor calling on the ee lectors to pick Hillary Clinton over donald trump when they meet. He writes, the winner by far of the popular vote is the most qualified candidate for president in more than a generation. Well, of course except she didnt win, right . President elect trump easily won the Electoral College. Whats that all mean . Get over it. Time to move on. Josh cohen disagrees. Im going to start with you, josh. What is it that you actually want to see done here . Well, thanks for having me, trish. First of all, lets not mischararats or liberals are looking for here. He is a little bit on his own. He is this is not part of a widespread movement by the Democratic Party to have the Electoral College reverse its direction. Thats first. Second this is not part of a widespread effort to what not have the to have the Electoral College vote the opposite direction, to have the Electoral College okay, thats good. Because that seems to me it would be irresponsible to encourage that. What i see from mr. Lessig is a little irresponsible. He writes, that it would be adding insult to the framers to let a candidate who lost the popular vote win the presidency saying that it is not meant to deny reasonable judgment by the people. It is meant to be a sir kit breaker in case the people go crazy. In the professors view, the people went crazy or at least Electoral College by allowing donald trump to get there. And to be clear, under no circumstances am i going to defend donald trump, his candidacy or any policies that or policy that he has ascribed for his presidency. That isnt who i am. However, i think it is very important to note that the constitution does give Legal Authority to the Electoral College to make a decision and to decide who they want to elect. If they decide to reverse and decide to elect Hillary Clinton, they are within their constitutional we have to back up. You just told me youre not encouraging anyone to do but youre saying they could do it. Ms. Manning, we have seen a number of calls for some kind of reversal, not just from the professioner but you look at jill stein, demanding a recount. She wants to see things reversed. People are saying, he is not my president. One of the things that makes us so special as a country and makes us frankly so secure as a country is our ability to transition power. Is the left effectively putting that under threat . Well, its true that there is a record low in our institutions and government and political systems. If the Electoral College acted faithlessly and through the election at this point, that would only serve to undermine the public trust and government even further. I agree that ee lectors are free and should remain free to choose whomever they wish for president but should also ablgt in good faith. Trump won the majority of states and electors are entrusted to represent the people of those states. People have talked about throwing out the electoral system and having a popular system for voting but we are not a pure democracy, we should point that out. Theres something rather dangerous about allowing majority to rule. Im from new hampshire. They would be irrelevant in the scheme of things because i cant imagine anybody would bother campaigning there or other small states where you dont have a big populist center. And to paraphrase alexander hamilton, tyranny can be found in the democracy, thats why we have a moderate constitutional republican government in the United States. If we can keep it, thats what ben franklin said. Its a good process for selecting a process, a federalist process that reflects our federalist system of government. I dont think thats going to happen. I dont think so either, Wishful Thinking on the part of some. I have to leave it there. Im out of time. Good to see you both. Thank you very much for joining.

Plenty of antipolice protests today but where are the protests as the number of officers shot and killed skyrockets . Who is shouting for them . Your world continues live in 60 seconds. The things they love to do most on these balloons. Travel with my daughter. Roller derby. Now give up half of em. Do i have to . This is a tough financial choice we could face when we retire. But, if we start saving even just 1 more of our annual income. We could keep doing all the things we love. Prudential. Bring your challenges. This is how the police are killing our women and children. We dont get theres plenty of shouting against police in chicago today but is anyone shouting over this . New numbers showing a surge in deadly attacks, up 67 from 2015. I want to go to radio host Kevin Jackson who says someone needs to step up and bring these attacks down. Kevin, good to have you here. Thats a shocking increase when you look at it. Do you think people have been em boldened to hurt Police Officers in light of what were seeing from black lives matter . Why the big increase . Undoubtedly. I think, trish, a lot of viewers would probably be a lot less shocked than you are that this is happening. Weve been seeing this trend now for the better part of id say at least three years since ferguson erupted. Over the last week, we had four officers killed in ambush style killings. Its not unexpected at all. I remember being on this program on fox on another program talking about the idea that black lives matter is really a terrorist group that terrorizing not only groups but terrorizing citizens that want to go on with their daily lives and understand the role of Law Enforcement. The short answer is absolutely, yes, barack obama has inspired this. People want to go on with daily lives. Earlier we were looking at video of protesters there in the streets of chicago along the magnificent mile preventing people from going in and out of stores. They are trying to wreak havoc on the situation. Let me get back to this idea, the police are not protected. It seems as though as a very, very challenging spot to be in. If youre a Police Officer right now, if my son or daughter were a Police Officer, i would be worried because they feel as though they are a target in a way i dont think we have seen. Is that a Fair Assessment . It is. I hear you say Police Officer as if its an alien that came in from outer space. These people are human beings and they have families. Were all one degree of separation from a Police Officer in our family, whether its a father or son or daughter or whatever. But we all have a cop in our family and know of some and have good relationships with them. And most of us have had interactions with Police Officers. So we talk about them though as if theres some sort of group, this fringe group attacking people. Part of a community, youre right, absolutely, part of the community and i think weve all known one or had a Family Member that was one. University of michigan students are demanding a socalled safe space and the reason for this because the police there backed donald trump for president. Whats your reaction to that one. I think these kids talking about safe spaces need to grow up. America is sick of these little, ill call them what they are, pans pansies, we send our young adults to college and they send us back toddlers. Barack obama was not the overwhelming favorite but there werent safe spaces for people. We didnt need the safety clips or baby pins or whatever they call them. We dealt with the issue. And the fallout has been tremendous, been a devastating to america but we dont care. Now its time for the grownups to take over and all of these little kids decided we dont like the outcome of the election so we want to be protected. Its ridiculous. And i think america is starting to realize how bad things had gotten. I think youre right. Good to see you and have you here. Kevin jackson, everyone. A new report suggesting iran is using commercial planes to smuggle weapons to terrorists. And someone here questions if our deal with iran may actually be helping them to do it.

In clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. And many achieved remission. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. If youre still just managing your symptoms, talk with your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible. The Washington Free beacon indicates that iran is smuggling advanced weapons to hezbollah and terrorists in syria on commercial airliners after the Obama Administration approved planes to iran. A senior official tells fox, under the iran deal the United States committed to license the export of certain commercial passenger aircraft to iran. These licenses contain strict conditions to ensure that the planes will be used exclusively for commercial passenger use and cannot be resold or transferred to a designated entity. I want to go to my former my guest, former special assistant to president george w. Bush, scott jennings, on this. Scott, this report seems to indicate that iran is using these commercial planes to smuggle weapons. The administration per their statement says iran is only used them for commercial use. Is there no way to check . Shouldnt there be a way to check to ensure thats what they are using them for . Thats exactly right. Just because they say they are going to use them for that purpose doesnt mean they are going to. We have intelligence from the israelis and ambassador to the United Nations from israel unveiled their own intelligence which indicates iran is using these aircraft to smuggle weapons to hezbollah. Weve got real consternation on the hill and hill sources today saying that the Obama Administration is turning a blind eye to warning flags. It seems the right thing to do is pump the brakes on this and investigate what the israelis have to say. We have israel and iran. Who are you going to believe on intelligence like this . Most americans fox news has heard from a senior official who is telling us that an official, u. S. Official briefed on matter telling us they are using what you call diplomatic pouch to do this, they are basically putting this into the plane, via these pouchs and thats pretty alarming stuff. Perhaps it speaks in general about the challenges we now as a country face having entered this deal in the first place. Theyve already violated this deal once. You may recall that they had too much heavy water on hand in iran and we came and bailed them out by taking it off their hands. Theyve been bad actors in the deal one time and now we have a second possible breach of trust here. It strikes me that the obamanis Foreign Policy achievement before he leaves off and maybe turning a blind eye towards these things because they dont want to leave office with having accomplished virtually nothing around the world and may be putting the United States and israel and allies and interests in jeopardy. Thats what really is the issue here. Thats been the fear from the very beginning, the willingness and neediness to get this deal done has put other things at risk in part because they wanted to solve for the deal being done. They had the equation already solved and did what they could to get it done. Scott, ultimately what happens with iran now that donald trump is going to be there . Well, obviously, there are good reasons to put the deal on hold. You have Congressional Republicans who didnt want the deal in the first place and trying to prevent airline sales. My suspicion is when republicans take over in washington in january, youre going to see a slowdown in iran. Thats a good thing. Our friend in this whole region is israel. Its our duty to check the problem out because if iran is doing this and using diplomatic pouchs to do it, it shows the o Obama Administration failed israel is our ally. Thanks so much, scott jennings. Shop until you drop . Of course, what exactly are they all shopping for today . We have it, the list of the hottest Holiday Gifts next. Shoppers are doing whatever it takes to get their hands on that must have gift this black friday. This is the walmart in mississippi. Its crazy to see this, right . What exactly are they fighting for anyway . Caroline is live with what is hot. Reporter the National Retail federation predicts feels like most of those folks are somewhere in this mall. This year Online Stores are taking such a bite out of the shopping total that brick and Mortar Stores are offering deep discounts to get you in the doors. Heres what seems to be flying off the shelves today. Clothing, outer wear and electronics are the big gift items this holiday season. What i asked different retailers, thats what they have shared with me. The weather is colder at this point, which last year wasnt as cold. That will push more outer wear. Reporter but some things you buy now and others you should wait on. The Gift Card Granny says electronics and beauty items are the best deals this weekend and for cyber monday but wait on toys and champagne and wine and oddly golf items. The discount on those items will get deeper closer to christmas. Analysts across the board are predicting an incase in sales over last year based on lower unemployment numbers and higher wages and a socalled trump bump, further stabilizing of the economy following the uncertainty we saw ahead of the election. For me its getting in the spirit of everything. I havent been out in black friday for years and i was ready to get back out here. It seems like christmas when you do it. Reporter believe it or not this is not the busiest shopping day of the year. The honor goes to super saturday, the saturday before christmas weekend. Retailers are hoping that makes these crowds look pretty wimpy. For all procrastinators out there. Thank you, enjoy it. Holiday spending is expected to jump 4 to nearly 656 billion. So whats driving all of this . Is it a trump bump . Here with us now, retail watcher, democratic strategist robin and kelly james torance. All of a sudden it feels like people are more optimistic and watch the dow seemingly every day now close at a new high. And they are shopping . Thats absolutely true. I was actually out at the stores last night up until its been a lot of hours but until 12 00 a. M. Last night and thats what i saw. People were definitely out at the stores but what was interesting, trish, they were out earlier and they didnt stay out later. That doesnt mean that they werent spending money. In fact, think well see a lot of people spending money online. Pay pal did a study that said as of september 30th, people had been shopping for their gifts for the holidays so its not really black friday. I call it more like gray november. The question now, why are they willing to spend . Theres been a lot of pent up demand in this economy and now all of a sudden were talking about the promise of lower taxes and less regulation and i dont care look, im a business reporter, politics aside, lower taxes less regulation, thats a thing most people would regard as a positive the economy. Sort of the everyday folks, are they feeling the same way . People would not come out and spend money in record numbers if they didnt think things were going to get much better starting january 20. We are seeing record numbers. Online sales are expected to top 3 billion on black friday for the first time ever. The campaign wasnt about the economy but about personality. When you look at exit polls, more than half of voters said the economy was the number one concern. That was part of it for sure. We have talked about it in the past. People really you know, they are willing to basically push aside a lot of other things because they were concerned about their future and they were concerned about the future of the economy. Thats the reason why Hillary Clinton missed out on all the blue collar democratic voters. All the folks going to work that dont know if they will have a job next week or next year. They crossed over and voted for donald trump. Now hes headed to the white house. You see optimism in the stock market. Do you think it will stay . I do, trish. Well, its an unknown. The fact is according to the Commerce Department income drives Consumer Spending and is fact is people are Walking Around with more money in their pockets now because of 73 straight months of growth under the Obama Administration. In this season im going to beg to i have heard this before. They are not Walking Around with more money yet. The reason is wages havent budged in 20 years. Adjusted for inflation people arent making more money. We have added jobs but not good paying jobs. This is one of the things donald trump was able to hit on over and over again. Hes got his work cut out for him. He does. People are feeling better because they are spending but there is a swath of the United States that feels uneasy about jobs. They dont feel they are certainly optimistic. They are still worried. Theyre excited about what may be to come. You were pointing out people were sitting there fighting over a specific television we saw. Part of the reason is they feel desperate. They feel this is the only chance to go in and buy an item or they wont be able to buy anything. Later on they cant afford it. We are seeing desperation. There is an element. Black friday is a cultural phenomenon. There is an element of going out to get the best deal. Its a family tradition. There is an aspect that people want to get together with Family Members and friends. They want to shop. But one certainly hopes that this optimism continues now. Its funny. It used to be just black friday. Then it was cyber monday. Now its going backwards to places opening on thanksgiving for people to shop. It has turned into a big f phenomenon. We are understanding the Trump Administration wont ruin america. Dow futures crashed when it became clear donald trump would win. The next day we have seen it exactly. Everybody needs to take a deep breath. Hes our president elect. Youve got to give the president elect a shot. Hopefully good things will come. He has the ability to make a lot of policy changes.

I want to go to mike tobin in chicago which is full of protests these days. A busy place for travel. Reporter if you have been over the river and through the woods to grandmothers house you will want to i can ma it home by tuesday. The workers say they will go on strike. These arent people who are directly for the airlines. They work for subcontractors. We are talking about baggage handlers, wheelchair attendants, workers who clean the plane cabins. Other custodians. They dont have the ability to shut down travel but they can snarl it. One thing we know is as ohare sneezes the rest of the travel industry catches a cold. These are not duespaying union members. The Service Employees International Union stepped up to represent them in this because one of the things they want is the ability to join a union in the future. They also want the 15 minimum wage and benefits. The airlines say they will take every step to make sure travel is safe and undisturbed.
