U. 7 08. Developing right now former president george h. W. Bushge h. Remains in a houston hospitalo the 92yearold was moved to intensive care yesterday following a procedure to cleare his airway. His airw mr. Bush has been in thebush hae hospital since saturdaye satday battling pneumonia. Baling pneum his wife, barbara, was alsolso admitted to the hospital hospitl yesterday for fatigue andan coughing. So what lies ahead in thead inthe recovery for the former president . Joining us now the doctor. Doctor pneumonia can affect people ofpf all es. S. Can it affect people are a bit older differently thander erentn somebody who is younger . Yonger . It certainly can steve and what we know actually is thats h the extremes of apes, so that at people that are the veryvery elderly like former president bush and then the youngstershe s really get hit hard when they ey get pneumonia which we know isiw an infection of the lungs that t can cause a lot ofe a lot inflammation and even mucus toeo get caught into the smallma airway so it can maken mke breathing very difficult particularly in the elderly population. Selby do you know what kindo of pneumonia he was dia ygounosa with and why that matters . Het used to hear a lot about walking pneumonia for exampleum and pneumonexia yoau get in the hospital. What can you tell us aboutan what you know about his condition. We know about the former yatu president bush is that hisent pneumonia was severe enoughvere that it required him to be hospitalized. Hospitaled. Thats very different than what we call a traditional walking pneumonia. Alki those are infections withnfectio organisms that actually willns give yous th sickness but your still able to go about your our day undont need to be hospitalized. Hospalized in president bushs caseresiden however he was hospitalizedr he because he was h waving troubleo breathing and that happensing a whenth its a more severe case e of pneumonia. Pneumon in his case he needed thatt procedure and it makes senses that he was hospitalized in the ice u twao monitor hisoni breathing. That was my next question. Icu sounds pretty serious. Se is that normal for the type ofy treatment hes received andce what type of treatment nowre will he be undergoing to hopefully aid in the recovery ry effort . So, he was placed on a then was placed on support toupo help him with clearing and protecting his airway. Ecting hia and he wasir likely giveny g antibiotics and othern dsupportive treatment to helpvee make sure that the breathingre that he has is Getting Better bt and that the infection can getgt cleared. Cleared. Icu certainly makes sense andesd while it sounds scary, waita also means is that app patient there gets more attention. T they have more nurses, morenurse staff really caring for them, more specialists looking ating their recovery so icu stay fort president bush does make sense e and i would expect soon expect n theyll try to step him downp hm and make sure he can breathe hee well on his own as thee infection clears. All right, well, we a certainly wish him thell best and i know that his wife isis wi also in the hospital sohosp s wishing her the best. Est.

Ead first though as his time in office comes to a close welllos take a look at the leg grassye president obama will leavet behind. Ob time right now is 7 27. 7 7 were back after this. Th. 7 30 on this thursday morning. It only two more monks for for president obama to weight wakett up in the white house. In the this is president obamas finall full day after eight years in the white house. Ew weekskshe past f reflecting on his time here inee washington and at his final h f press conference yesterdayes highlight the achievements and frustrations every his administration. Ustr e talked about what wadill will probably be his lastt controversial act as president si commuting the sentence ofsentf convicted military secret leakel chelsea manning. The president said manning man served enough time in prison ana that justice has been served. D. The president also highlighted g some of his achievements innt in office including expanded rights for Lgbtq Community and he saidi the country has also madead progress in Race Relations butes added the younger generationenan will have to pick up the mantlen kids are smarter about it. T. Theyre more tolerant. They are more inclusive by instinct than we are. The president also spoke alss frustrations with russia east. Whats the legacy president acy i obama will leave behind though . . Can we even say at this point . I joining us now with more dan math a thee. Te. Non part son organizationio promoting political cooperationa and effectiveness of each o eac Administration Much thatsstratc mouthful. Youre busy. Yes. In mut shell you studied mann president cease in the past. T ce you take a look how they worked, not work. What can we say successes andces fails for president obama letss start with domestic success. Domestic side when he faced c very difficult situation with wh Republican Congress one of theno most deadlocked washingtonasng environments in history, youtoyo have the accomplishments earlyts on the stimulus, the automotivee bailout, dodd frank addressing the concerns they had about theu financial system. Moving on from there, the t Affordable Care act expanding en health care and then using u executive powers and oh lgbtxtx rights where the g expansion weve seen of them ass well as actions on then the environment expanding marinee protection areas, reserve areasa a strong progressive legacy hey leaves behind on the domesticoms side. What about where he fell short on the domestic st idabe . C i think where he tried tori reach out to the middle theree e was some movement he had with the simpson bowls commissionowls trying to solve some of our very longterm fiscal issues such asa Social Security the future of medicare. Medicare. That was an opportunity he hadty that he didnt run with when wie there was a bipartisan consensus behind it. But also aas too where he, you y know, he described his on shortcomings on the issues of race saying younger generationss need to continue that as well. L obviously its not domestic issues but this is our commandea in chief. Ininvolvlso involved in international policies. Ie correct. On the international frontinr lets start with success. S starh i think the success, the killing of owe samba bin laden bringing him to justice wastices major step even though there was pressure from his own party hesa continued many of the drone programs, special forcescf programs that are very effectivr and attacking some of these radical groups weve seen from alqaida to isis. I think he has challenges wheree its looking at the legacy off our intervention in libya what w became of that after the fact. And then too in syria there wass the failure to enforce the socalled red line with chemical weapons. S did that weaken u. S. The us position in the middle east . As did that allow the continued role of bashar a sad and sad further rise of isis by failingi to tackle that straight on. O would you look at those ass shortcomings when it comes too international accomplish. H. Some of the shortcomings buts recognizing too as we look backb at this further there was timehs when the American People andple some of our political leadersea became very skeptical of more international intervention. Right. What do you think as we lookyoi into the crystal ball in theallt future now whether it be one year, five year, 10 years, whata do you think this administratior you think those will be. Th the civil rights issues forir the lgbtx community will beill b powerful issue that image of the white house lit with the colorsc of the rainbowol flag will be fr generations rallying cry in that area. Area i think well also see, too, the, you know, he brought cool c back to the white house. The youtube appearances, times,t with comedians, well have ane entertain are in president butep this was president who also knee how to use social media and matt media to get his message out. The first one in the whitene house when social media reallydl really took off. Y. And kept on rolling. Rol can actions in the last coupleto of days, couple of weeks in the white house change a legacyeg either for the better or the worse . Woe . In some ways he can cement c it. Youll see some of the pardons s that add the controversy. Ov. Its a balance of making sureure that your predecessorrecess particularly in this instancethc cant undo a lot of what youve accomplished. Again at the same time putting a stamp on ssome of tamhose issue where you can finally get to without worrying about politics maybe brings a ih controversy. Last thing, dan, is there a set time when you look and youou and your organization you studied president cease over the century, is there a set timethea when that legacy is really i rll dont want to say septemberedter but maybe recognized more thanet another or does that change as generations . It shifts as generations go. S the generation that new the as president , those of us who all experienced live in the obama m under the Obama Administration will tell the next generation oo our mindset of it want we felt. F that will be passed on. On its shaped, you know, the kw, memoirs that come out in the coming years shape historicalto research down the road. Nostalgia helps everything. Eveh a lost look back now on george g w. Bush as being a much betterht president than they felt at thef time. So there is that shift and i shi think its unique, too, tooo, t notice hell be one of the t youngest president s to leavedena office. Of so theyll be four decades probably, appearances, what he h chooses to do after policies may also help shape that legacy. Lives improve or dont improve over the years and decades ases well. Yes. Dan, thanks for joining us. Af thank you. Or j do appreciate it t. T send things over to tucker. O tu. 7 35. Get a look at our forecast. T all important forecast. F were in the clear for today.

Don well be talking with the folksl who make up this band later oneo this morning. We thank them. This is a busy day for them. T thanks for snd with us. In one day in the meantime me donald trump will become thee leader of the free world wld challenges as commander chief, they are many. Chiehey joining us now jordan with theit school of international servicee at American University researcht fellow at the white house h congress relations. Ss r thats mouthful. Busy man. Good morning. Thanks for having me. Lets talk about it a lot ofb times we look at especially acil new president you look at thek t first 100 days in office and thats kind of a blueprint fornt maybe the rest of the term. M. So what do you think thehink t challenges will be, and what dod you think donald trump willink a really try to tack first in those 100 days. Theyll be big challenges top priority will be repealing and replacing obama care thats as top priority for trump and foror Congressional Republicans. Repua but its not going to be easy. As i think theyve already found f that its a lot easier to criticize obama care than toe ta figure out how to replace it without millions of peopleeo losing health insurance. Ance and trump wants congress to acta right away on this, but manyy Congressional Republicans wantnu to make sure theyre doing thist carefully and taking the time t this well. El how dynamic play out. O i know in the past numerous numr president s have said theres definitely a difference betweene when you prepare to have that ht power and when you actually feef that power and have that power. I think, um, congress will act rather deliberately on thisi because Republican Congressionas leaders are going to be want ton be careful that they are, you ao know, coming up with replacemene that is not going to be politically costly for them dowd the road when people actually aa Lose Health Insurance and so so trump has a lot of powers as the president but he isnt going to be able to force congress to act immediately if congressionalon Republican Leaders want to wait a little while. Could you set precedent as far as cabinet picks, appointeei picks as a president electsnts takes over the role of president. Esent. Is donald trump where pastre p president s have been . At this h time . There has not been as much ca some of the cabinet nominees ase there has been in the past. So probably because theres a Republican Congress. C i think trump has felt hell beb able to get his cabinet nomineee through congress easily butil already theres some ethicsme es concerns about some of them and Congress Really needed to Due Diligence and look at people a o carefully. Make sure that people dont havh ethics concerns that should sul disqualify them because in thesn past it has been common for some nominees to not get confirmed bb congress because of various kinds of ethics concerns muchces thats one of the questions aneo lot of people are having right now if plse if if people arn confirmed leading in now obviously even were talking tal about changes with embassieses overseas and diplomats and thata type of position. N. As of noon tomorrow whatw w happens . Is there just a disconnect of federal officialsc all around the world . . Well, unfortunately its beeb true of all recent president st that many of their nominees have not gotten into office right r away, and theres a lag before r all those poit i think the bigger issue with iw trump how is he going to managea the federal bureaucracy youou cannot be an effective presideni through managing by tweets. H ma he has ana very kind of adhoc informal management style wheree he likes to make announce andsea through tweets and he really has to learn how to draw on thehe expertise of the federal bureaucracy create an orderlrd management process and thats going to be interesting to seeno if he changes his leadership lep style in that way. Yle before we let you go back toc the first 100 days. Ay a lot of Campaign Promises that were made immigration pops topos the for front of my mind. In what is realistic in the firstst 100 days of this presidency . Well, i think they willil repeal and replace obama care. B. I think it will not be easy to,s you know, sort that out bututut thats such a top priority imym sure congress will act on that. A it needs to happen. N. Okay. I think that also trump willl move ahead quickly with w repealing a number ofber administration put in on alln a kinds of issues includingding immigration but other issues. Sss many of those issues trump can c act essentially immediately just through the power of theugh powe presidency to reverse, rescind regulations. Regulati some regulations its not thatn easy to change them right away. I was going to ask weve seen in going back to the twitterwier weve seen the tweets the pen is ready, the executive decisionsio that can be made. Made. Anything there that mighthat m surprise us at this point as far as things that can take can te immediate effect . Well, there are some rules in place that dont make it thatt a easy to rescind all regulationsl that quickly. At q so there has to be, um, in somes cases under the law a formal process that the government goes through to take back rules thata have been issued by the federall government so its not itss not all that straight forward. D but rules that have been issueds within the last six months. Monh president is able to just, um, overturn those essentially those might be some of thehe first changes we see. S thank you. Nkou thanks for joining us. Joininu thanks so much. Jordan is from americanm amei iviversity. Tucker, its weather time. Weatm if morning. Orning. Thank you allison. Thank all lots to talk about.
