want to ask you a quick question. when you heard president obama today say he thinks donald trump is pragmatic more than ideological, as a conservative, did that worry you? that was the concern among many conservatives early on, here's a guy that's going to make deals and maybe sacrifice ideology. >> i think, anderson. i think that's a great question. some might be concerned about it. however, there's a lot to be encouraged with a lot of the choices that the president-elect has been making with regards to his cabinet. people that with the exception of steve bannon, people who are going to be influencing him and i think that may override him. he can be pragmatic and not be ideological, however, a lot of the individuals with whom he's surrounding himself are actually ideological. so it might be a good complement. >> all right, dana, thanks for being on. we're going to have more with our panel just ahead. president-elect trump facing an unprecedented number of civil lawsuits. ish colludeing several involving trump university. a trial set to go earlier this month. will it actually go forward? we'll look at that ahead. o is for ordinarily i wouldn't.
