On january 6th. if he does have presidential ambition it s going to get challenging for him how do you get out of it? civility is a tough message for mike pence to sell. not because mike pence is a civil guy. he is. the contrast between mike pence in that town hall and donald trump is fast. but he literally stood behind donald trump for four years whether it was satisfying or not he talked about the idea, you know, he criticized in private, where he had those personal moments yes, sure. go ahead, karen. i was going to say, sure, but now you re not the vice president to donald trump anymore, and now you can say, look, then i was doing my duty. i ll make the message up. let s do it on the spot. then i was doing my duty, i had agreed to be his vice president, but now let me tell you who i really am and what i really care ....
Facing our democracy still. that progress makes democracy a whole lot more complicated. for one thing it s easier for people to agree on stuff when the majority of the people look the same and worship the same way and share the same traditions. it s harder as society s become more diverse and everybody is at the table. and we re going to have to figure out how to live together, or we will destroy each other. i want to bring in cnn politics reporter and editor at large crist eliza, and cnn political commentators karen finny. i m glad you re here and thinking about this. without the tie. i love it. look, my mom may be watching. she may be asleep. every time i go on tv without the tie she s like did you ....
Their fear of crime, republicans talking about the idea of being unsafe. and for many although it s lower on that cnn chart we pulled out in the poll, this is still part of the biggest talking point in the country, right, crime. absolutely. karen, i know you worked on the north carolina senate race. i m from north carolina. if you watch a college football game north carolina is playing nc state or something like that. that s in a couple weeks. you re going to see a lot of ads on crime. and if he s not talking about crime he s talking about the economy. it s why i watched the biden speech today some sort of mystified sense about why he was doing this and doing it today. i thought it was a good speech politically. i thought it was a good speech how it was delivered. i agree with a lot of what biden says on these election deniers that are taking over county boards and obviously states. but politics is about people, and people are concerned about what s happening to them every day of the ....
The details that has come out is that there are security cameras around the pelosi home, can they have a live feed to the capitol police back in d.c., but no one was monitoring that feed because the speaker wasn t at her home in san francisco, so it took them ten minutes to realize that a crime was under way. so obviously they need a security review to figure out what to do differently. it s funny you think about that and it s not entirely clear whether the officers would have responded maybe even sooner. who knows, the idea think of the cost incurred and what is required and the sheer scope of the problem. i mean, we see what happens when capitol police officers are outnumbered, and you think about the notion of just the scope of toxicity happening right now. i mean, how many officers is it going to take and surveillance to bring this temperature down? let s talk about it with my panel here. i ve got alex burns, karen finny, and doug hie. when you think about the capitol police were ....
2024. if i might respond to karen, though, on the merits of the argument for the general election, you can always tell people who don t have confidence in their policies when they completely lie about what they re calling them, the inflation reduction act. that s the label they put on this bill that they now placed all their hopes and dreams for the general election. not a single, nonpartisan credible analysis of this bill says it will reduce inflation. it is going to raise taxes and hire a bunch of irs agents and going to spend a bunch of money we don t have. but they called it the inflation reduction act. anybody who has been to the store lately knows that s a bunch of garbage. so i m just saying, karen, if you re going to run on a bill, call it what it is, the democrat wish list act. nothing to do with inflation. it was build back better up until, what, a couple weeks ago? up until they changed the title of it so joe manchin could lie to the people of west virginia. that s what ....
