communication an obstacle to cooperation. i don't know what she is saying. shakespeare had a great actor who interpreted his work. irving berlin had ethel merman. gorman is missing the boat by not recruiting kamala harris to read her next owed. i bet she will be the premier interpreter of amanda gorman's work. just watch. >> laura: they have the same cadence where they... [laughs] none of it works. >> they stress on the wrong syllable. it defies auditory comprehension. >> laura: it's bad like marshall mathers or something. raymond, tell us about this story where gen z-ers are going back to work in kind of unusual clothing. >> sure for another the pandemic is over, they are dressing up for the office. the problem is they consider this dressing up. for many, dressing up is going to the club. they are taking the club to the office.
kp exhausted, neglected, et cetera. so there is a bitterness there that speaks more to -- to -- to just burnout, i think, than strategy. and then, if you are stascey abrams, these are the folks that have to carry you into the gov governor's mansion so stacey abrams is kind of caught between biden trying to get something done, not being able to get it done, and a grassroots that's fatigued so she is not there. dana is 100% right. we are missing -- we have got the emphasis on the wrong syllable here. the big news is that president biden has come out. biden has come out. he has called for a constitutional carve-out to the filibuster to defend the right to vote. this is what the grassroots movement has been asking for, has been calling for, has been demanded. and they won today and i think it's a very big deal. there is nobody who respects the u.s. senate more than joe biden. there is nobody who cares more about those rules and cherishes
they have been under constant attack from the georgia state legislature and there was a cry from groups like black voters matter and others earlier in the year for help from the white house. biden answered that call privately by trying to get this done behind closed doors, but it left the grassroots feeling exhausted, neglected, et cetera. so there is a bitterness there that speaks more to just burnout, i think, than strategy. and then, if you are stacey abrams, these are the folks that have to carry you into the governor's mansion, so stacey abrams is kind of caught between biden trying to get something done, not being able to get it done, and a grassroots that's fatigued, so she is not there. dana is 100% right. we are missing -- we have got the emphasis on the wrong syllable here. the big news is that president biden has come out. president biden has come out. he has called for a constitutional carve-out to the filibuster to defend the right
the country not what he's doing. >> a big strike on the mueller case. trying to get another base hit and punch, in you will the president. >> drop it. beat trump in the ballot box. >> joining me now the director of the swing voter project. if i'm president trump and watching that, i'm liking what i see, rich. >> absolutely. to borrow a phrase from my dad, the members of congress are putting the wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable. putting their focus on the wrong thing. these are swing voters who think congress should be focusing on retirement security and health care and making that affordable. immigration and for them, the whole impeachment thing is a distraction. >> in other words, they don't think that congress can walk and chew gum at the same time? that if all of a sudden they're sucked in on impeachment nothing
offices, your mother, obviously, was free to give you advice. do you feel similarly free to advise your sons? >> not -- they don't need it now. they, if -- as george said, i've got my father's looks and my mother's mouth. [laughter] and, you know, barbara might be inclined, miss frank, i call her, to call up if she saw something that she thought was out of line or where they emphasize the wrong syllable and bawl 'em out. but i don't give advice. i've given them what i can through my life and by not lecturing, but hopefully, by doing certain things. and we're very close to our four sons and our daughter, and it never occurs to me the give them advice on an issue or advice on life its own self. and if they call me and if they're hurting or they wonder how to handle something, of course i'd say what i think. but it doesn't work that way,
another emphasis on wrong syllable. we have a fresh statement from speaker ryan on this and his dissent about what just happened ow of the white house saying the speak did not agree with the w this decision. law enforcement has a special responsibility to respect the rights of everyone in the united states. and the responsibility is not diminished by this pardon. by contrast, we have all questions being directed to the white house. the department of justice has not made a comment to the new report from "the washington post." but what do you make of speaker ryan getting on the record? >> well, we talked about this a little earlier in the show. it's not a very forceful statement if it's not coming from ryan directly. we know in washington there's a pecking order and if you don't want to get a lot of attention for something, you have a spokesperson do it and you don't go on video and do it yourself.
outnumbered now by all of the people that are racing around the back. >> orange pants has a name. he's a person. his name is -- this is interesting -- phil orangepant. >> putting the emphasis on the wrong syllable. orange pants does have a name. you checked in with him. he's okay. he's not angry with us. >> yeah. that's right, his name is chris lane. a british photographer. he was on assignment with a french magazine. very lovely guy and a talented photographer, i will add. i've been to his website. and everyone should check him out. we deserve to give him a little bit of love after the mockery that we've put him through. i talked to him this morning on the phone. he's putting up with us quite well. a little bit of back story here. those -- this of the second day he had worn those orange pants. was already feeling uncomfortable in a field in iowa. you know, not necessarily native orange pant territory. >> no. sea of khaki -- >> had been made fun of a little bit. then not only to be made fun of
>> no, no. see that's no good. you don't know how to act. these pretzels -- are making thee thirsty! >> you are putting the wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable there. this is a professor in new jersey teaching students in third or fourth year while they are on psychological rotation. rotation. is he using seinfeld episodes to teach them. asking them to watch back-to-back episodes and come in and talk about all the character flaws with elaine and jerry and george and kramer. >> puts it this way anthony tobiah when you put them together the dynamic is so much jerry's obsessive come pollive and elaine's inability to form lasting relationships and eggo centric. >> ocd, skits friendia and some kind of ego centric narcissist impulse.
remember when i left you on friday, willie was trying to give me a hard time about the forecast for ernesto. it still was kind of questionable where that storm was going to head. over the weekend, it remained very weak, and it looks like it's never even going to come close to anywhere in the united states. that storm is going to head towards it looks like belize and possibly through mexico. it should remain a tropical storm and a rather weak storm, too. so thomas, looks like so far, so good. we actually had florence form this weekend, too, and that storm isn't a threat to anyone, either. so, the united states, we're looking all right. >> all right, sounds good, bill. thank you so much. all right, so, we want to check in now with willie and he'll give us the highlights from london for the summer olympics. willie, do you like that pitch there? i feel like tarzan, i grunt words and i put the emphasis on the wrong syllable. you didn't warn me how tough it is to speak this early in the morning. >> i'm about to actually pay you a compliment. you're wearing 5:30 a.m. very well, which is not easy to do, as mike barnicle proves each and every time he does the perform. >> that's because i'm still perming and my bags are not to
pass along a deal. the president has public opinion at his back. underpents are looking at democrats and president obama and seeing somebody who is compromising which is what they want. republicans are opposing compromise and the president was trying to push that advantage in public opinion, force republicans to buckle. we'll see what happens at 11:00 when all the leaders show up at the white house. it's not clear how this is going to be resolved and whether it's a short-term, medium or long-term deal. >> let's talk about this angle from the president. he wants this next deal to be valid through 2013 to avoid dealing with this in a presidential election year. let's talk about that. the phrase has been we're talking about the debt ceiling but it's the economy stupid. do you believe that we're focussing on the wrong syllable here. does this affect the domestic economy and getting people back to work and getting all the
