flaherty, but she always found a way to endear herself to the audience. i consider myself a circus performer, working without a net. i m on a tightrope. and if i m bombing, you re going to see it in my face. and if they re not laughing, do something. get louder. you know, do anything. you re working for the audience. and one day i got a phone call and it was john belushi. he said, you know, this is john belushi. do you want to be the girl in the show? and i say it in those words because that s what he needed, a girl to be in the show. who is going to be the girl? this on? you. you be the girl. okay.
be an element of actual craziness in the operation of that plan and so this is working without a net here and the consequences are too grave for the risk that he s taking in terms of breaking apart the post-world war ii international western alliance. this is the second president in a row many foreign policy critics have gone after for not having an overarching international fame. of course there is no compare son between barack obama and donald trump in most aspects but we quietly heard critiques. i know jeffrey had the most important intervienterview of b obama s foreign policy in the second term. but what you quietly heard from a a lot of barack obama s international critics was there was no overarching thing. it was just as he famously said
heart of these things, a joint press conference. not knowing that i think puts these foreign leaders in some level of political peril in that you have no idea, is donald trump going to talk about water boarding and torture and how he thinks it works in a joint press conference with theresa may if he gets asked about it? what does theresa may do if that happens? as someone who watches politics for living it s utterly fascinating. as someone who sort of practices politics as theresa may or paul ryan or mitch mcconnell do, it has to be terrifying. sort of a high wire act with absolutely no net. working without a net has worked for him all this last year and a half. yes. i mean it s got him past a 17-person primary fight and into the white house and onto air force one today. and he is the president of the united states, about to brief his republican colleagues at this retreat, meet with his first foreign leader tomorrow at the white house. it has been an extraordinary
so there was a montage there of most of the home runs that carly fiorina was able to hit last night. do you think that she brings the needed compelling gravitas to the campaign of the gop that it needs? because right now, as we saw from rand paul and donald trump and some other people, it can tend to be a little juvenile. she elevated the conversation. what happens when you get into this arena of course is now her actual record at hp will come under focus. the dealings with iran, the layoffs, the outsourcing, the financial disaster that that was. that s part of the price here. look, i agree, i think what people like about trump is that he s unscripted. he s working without a net. it s absolutely true. he is rnlg is he unprepared? people were looking for substance and there were points marco rubio made. donald brings sparkle but not a lot of substance. the voters don t think so. that was a very elitist
do van and go out into the hustings and say i m here, i m one of you, i m with you and i m going to listen and you have four people sitting around you. she has to let this inner ayatollah get out of her head. i thought she created a bunch of opportunities to be unscripted and spontaneous, then didn t take them. the first day road trip, that s a good idea. that is different. then there was no unscripted moment on the road trip. one of the things we do in this town presidential races are marathons and we judge every 1/4 mile. 1/4 mile? sooner than that. this is the beginning of a long process. she is not going to solve all her problems with one rollout. i thought there was a humility to her rollout that was very, very effective. yes, i agree. i would do more unscripted drop in on diners and taverns. you authentic these interactions
