History of his first year in the white house. Host what does it mean to be authorized . And thehat they say ok, president says who do you want to talk to . Initially sitting with Sarah Huckabee sanders and bill shine when the book started, and the president , i said i want everybody. Everybody in the cabinet. Everyone said good, you can have them all. Interviewing the family members i couldnt get out of the family. It was too rich and too interesting. Host how did you get into that room in the first place . Guest it was a year of debate. I had a meeting with the ivanka trump, and i said into hundred years when you are gone and all your children are gone, they will still be writing books about the trump family and theatrical performances. Whether your family is viewed with hatred like that med like thecelebrated kennedys or the rockefellers is sources. It is what you say and your father says that history will be written, and i would like to write that book. They debated it for a year. I am the guy who taperecorded george bush. General kelly is saying no, you cant let that guy in here. Host why did they decide to trust you . Guest it is the president. I have seen it over and over. If someone really enjoys doing something he feels they will rise to the task. Building ait is skyscraper, or putting his daughter in georgia North Carolina in the middle of the campaign. She had zero experience. Michael loft came to mayor log go after i won the election and he stayed for a week. Now he is on tv attacking me, but i feel chemistry with you. Authorized,t is does the president get to read what you write before it is published . Guest he probably didnt have time to read it. But the protocols, they cant dictate anything i write or say, but they can say this was off the record this was on the record. They can also say this is a National Security issue. They do have that option. I wanted to be accurate. That was the point of the book. I want to write something that is really what they said. Tiffany,uraged don jr, eric, jared, to look at the manuscript. They would find mistakes, things i misunderstood. But i wrote what i wrote. The when were you in white house, when were you with the family . Guest it was over the period of years. It was in and out. At three meetings with the president in the beginning of 2016 and lots of questions with the kids and the staff. Office forer interviews multiple times. I met jarred right between the chief of staff and the oval office. I went to a longer and to jareds georgetown home to interview them around a roaring fire, which was fun. I talked on the phone with the family multiple times, and i got the only interview with tiffany. The only one she has given since her father was elected president. Host who defied your expectations . Guest i was surprised by a lot of things. One thing that surprised me is in most families there is a smart one, a dumb one, a rich one, a poor one, a lazy one, and industrious one. Every one of the trumps are dynamic. They all have a positive streak in them. Ivanka would say i refuse to be bitter. I choose to be happy. She said i cant function if im not happy, so i choose to be happy. Each of them was like that. I would bring up russian collusion and they would bring out a silver lining, including the president. Host inside Trumps White House the real story of his presidency is the topic of our discussion the next 50 minutes this morning on washington journal. Democrats can call in 202 7488000. Republicans, 202 7488001. Independents 202 7488000 2. 02 7488000 Jared Kushner came up several times. Know i wanted to everything. What do you watch on netflix, how do you sleep on International Voyages that you take . I did spend a lot of time getting the stuff i felt from Jared Kushner. He is a very inning medic mysterious guy. Host at first he right Jared Kushner would not let me record our interviews, forcing me to rely on notes, but his stories were the biggest of all pulled from his georgetown home or pulled from his Office Squeezed between the oval office and the chief of staff suite in the rarefied west hallway. Every story was patiently waiting. My young team was impressed. We are now actually interviewing spiderman. What was most worth waiting for . Guest there are so many. He said to me, i told my fatherinlaw russian collusion is the perfect scandal for you, because it is so farfetched and you are so provably innocent. If they had created some scandal over casinos in Atlantic City or building in new york city with Building Permits the public could have been confused and it could have worked, but they chose russian collusion. Perfect. He also said russian collusion was a great diversion because he felt they could not have turned around the economy if the media was focused on the deregulation. Would make stories out of the deregulation they could not turn around the economy. Host the unexpected advantages of the russia witchhunt and how it plays into what is happening now with ukraine. Explain. Aest by saying that he is russian agent, stop and think about that. The russians have run him for president and elected him against all odds to be the president of the United States and he is a russian spy. That is like landing a man on the moon, the assassination of julius caesar, christopher columbus, one of the greatest events of World History if they were able to achieve that. When it turns out to be untrue, or they cant prove it, it is pretty farfetched. I can tell you a story about that, but in any case they say no, no, no russian collusion wasnt it but this is really it. It inoculates the president and a lot of peoples mind. At least apologize over russian collusion and then i will listen to what you have to say will stop you cant keep this up. In that sense a kind of worked to his advantage. Here tothor doug wead talk about many of the stories he learned during his time in the white house with the trump family. Emma kratz, 202 7488000 democrats, 202 7488000. Republicans, 202 7488001. Ndependents, 202 7488001 democrat and i believe in the United States of america and i worked at the Space Department at one time. I was under George H W Bush and Ronald Reagan. I believe that we must be bent on the fact naand not fake news. Country isalf of our not familiar with the facts. The molar investigation is for real. The Climate Change is for real also. Look at what is happening all around the world, california, the drought situation, that is very real. Our nation, most of the people are very young. Our children our grandchildren, this is the United States of america, not north korea, russia, or china. On air force one. Air force one is the pride of the United States of america, the flying lighthouse. I dont think he should be allowed to do that. Should takeress this air force one and park it at Vandenberg Air force base and not let this man get on it and go abroad. Host what do you think . Guest i agree with everything you had to say except limiting the president for air force one. I worked for Ronald Reagan and wrote his Campaign Flag or fee and for George H W Bush served think youi dont should deny that person free speech or cant use air force one or cant represent us. That is what elections are all about, we have the right to vote for who we want to vote for. Host how many president s have you interviewed . Guest six american president s. Host what defines a legacy . Guest historians look at 120 different things, but primarily the economy and the handling of war and peace. The economy dominates. They want to know a president s intelligence. Jimmy carter may be the most intelligent, but he is ranked poorly because of the economy. George h w bush is ranked as a great warrior president , but ranked lately as a very poor president because of the economy. He left with 25 approval rating. The economy dominates. That is what works in Donald Trumps favor. Host with the house Impeachment Vote appearing likely at this point, what will that mean for this president s legacy . Guest most impeachment should be bad, but the russian collusion thing is haunting. The democrats would have been smarter if after the election they said lets unite and then went after ways to get rid of him rather than immediately saying he won lets impeach him. Jared kushner told me that the kids, the trump kids, they travel all over the world. From time to time, right from the beginning in 2017, they would be pulled aside by head of state and they would say please tell your father how sorry we are he is going through this russian collusion nonsense. When i heard that story it was like a light switch going off. I wrote the book all the president s children, when you study through the eyes of the president s children the perspective changes. I am seeing the russian collusion through the eyes of the kids. Of course, if you are the president of france or the Prime Minister of the u. K. You arent going to wait for two years for the mueller investigation. You are going to say what did i just read in the New York Times . I want an answer by 6 00 p. M. Tonight. There are 120 intelligence. Gencies those countries had to know. Host they all did their own investigation . Guest they had to know. The security and economy of their country is at stake. Im dealing with a russian spy . They knew the answer while we in america waited. Host this is pierre and washington, d. C. Independent. Caller first i want to correct you on one point. Ivanka live in calla ram a and not georgetown. Next, nepotism. The problem for the trump family, they talk about the bidnes, but how they justified their own nepotism and profiting off the presidency. I will let you answer the question. Guest thank you. You can call it nepotism, but from the beginning republican president s have often picked their children to serve in government. The first president to have biological children was adams. No less than George Washington dontadams and said withhold appointment of john quincy just because he is your son. When i sat down with ivanka t rump, she was the 19th son or daughter of an american president to be appointed to work in the white house with the father. There is a scene in one of my books where her mother, eleanor roosevelt, comes to her daughter and begs to be put on the manifest. Her daughter says sorry, cant do. This has been going on for a long time. Nepotism, but if you become the president of the United States you will want people that you can trust who are loyal to you, and you will have a tendency to pick people closest to you, and often that will be your own family. This has happened all through history, even modern history. They change the laws but the president will put them on the d c payroll like jimmy carter did his son or the rnc payroll. Ik there are two things that the child will do helping the president. Is offer loyal and two continuity. If your boss is Reince Priebus and you have all of these great projects, all of your projects collapse. Now it is general kelly. Then general kelly is gone. Now it is mick mulvaney. The children remain. They will always be at the dinner table at thanksgiving. What you say to one of the children or relatives will endure. That continuity is important. Republican,ticut, a good morning. Caller i wanted to ask how the trump family deals with two of the nastier falsehoods. I never really see the tellers suffere falsehoods ever any consequences. The first is this notion that donald trump is a racist. President trump goes around saying things like the Unemployment Rate among like people is at an alltime low and takes credit for it, but he is clearly celebrating an increase in prosperity among africanamericans. Maxine waters and others, donald trump is racist, racist, racist. There is never 81 in the media that says how do you say that and hold that falsehood teller accountable . The other is the russian hoax. You would say we have moved past that, but we havent because adam schiff and senator blumenthal keep saying publicly and repeatedly they personally have evidence of this crime occurring. Although they never tell or appoint the evidence out. They are never pressed on it and they appear in public. I just wanted to ask how does the trump family deal with these two nasty allegations . Guest very interesting. Whole chapter about the women on the bus, the trump women. They campaigned all over the south. I detail these Great Stories. Eric trumps close personal assistant for almost all of his life and all the other women on the bus. When i finish i wanted to get a picture of the trump women on the bus. Six women on the bus, five of them are africanamerican. The only white person is laura trump. You never heard about it, it was never in the news. The only one that got any fame switched. A, who they recognize it, they see it. The president has great pride in those numbers because he feels he has been able to accomplish what humphrey wanted to do, what lbj wanted to do. 6 Million People have gone off of food stamps. Lbj gave them food stamps and subsidized housing. The police would go around and look to see if there is a man in apartment. If there was they could lose welfare because they were claiming to be a single mom. The father had to be chased out, someone from the Welfare Department will be here today. You have a whole generation of young people raised without a dad. You have an increase in crime, which was natural. Trump is very proud of what happened, and it doesnt matter to him if he doesnt get credit for. At least he says that. One night Jared Kushner came e with his daughter came home and his daughter greeted him at the door. She said, she spoke into her how many people has Jared Kushner gotten out of prison today . Siri didnt know. She said i will tell you what. 20,000. Today he got out two, after today 20,000. Not bad, dad. Most happened to be africanamerican, nonviolent drug offenses. The trump family takes great pride in that, whatever people want to think. Host doug wead is our guest. The book inside Trumps White House the real story of his presidency. We are talking about it this morning taking your phone calls. I want to show the president from tuesday and the rose garden before the pardoning of the turkey. President trump talking about what he is thankful for this year and about living in the white house. [video clip] President Trump this thanksgiving we bow our heads for the new found prosperity in spirit taking place all across america. The country has never been more successful. Rebuilt. Ary has been we have captured the number one terrorist in the world, killed the number one terrorist in the world, albaghdadi. I want to thank our military, because there is nothing like our military. Fornt to thank almighty god the shedding his grace on our nation. Our nation is special, and we especially send our love to members of the United States armed forces serving all over the world. We are forever thankful for those who wear our nations uniform and the families who support them. Important. S are so you can never be the same without those great families. Because of their service millions of americans are celebrating another thanksgiving in safety and peace. It is a very special country, a very special place. The rose garden at the white house. If youre looking back here, that is the oval office some of before. Nt been here every time we walked onto the grounds of the white house, we realize how special it is. Host the president living in the white house, and his feelings about that. This president owns a lot of property around the country. Guest that is very funny. In christmas 2018 he stayed in the white house rather than going to maralago. He was playing the martyr saying i will stay here and work for the country. Maralagol go to and have traditions for christmas they love. Dad, arent you going to join us . He said i have all this business, i have to work for the country, i have to stay here. Finally eric and laura say we are coming back to the white house. We arent going to let you be alone on christmas. There. Staty jared and ivanka call and say dad, you cant be alone for christmas. He opens up to jared. He says i own all of these homes. Im goings a rental, to enjoy this for a while. He called the white house a rental. He was also setting up a private moment was that he and the first lady were planning to fool the family and go to iraq caller good morning. Just almost made me throw up this morning. Threw up every time they mentioned. Trump at 63 million votes. People in this country voted for this clown disgracing the white house every day. Who has spenty 24 of the time on the golf course. Have a nice day. Thank you. Host the president and golfing . Nixon i remember richard after he lost to john kennedy. He held a press conference and said i will never criticize anyone for going to florida, hyannis port, or taking time off. Is not a 9to5 job where you come into an office. It is decisionmaking. Ute noecisions bear on matter where you are or where you go. Wherever the president goes, the twitter handle is not far from him. What are your thoughts on the president s twitter habits . Guest my thoughts dont matter. If i was advising him, he never would have been elected president , so what do i know . I think his communication is transformational. I think he has gone somewhere you cant come back from. That will always be a tool for future president s, pretty amazing, direct communication with the people. While it is crude and has rough edges, it is comforting and awake. I worked for multiple president s. I knew many of the president s. They are very careful about what they say. George w. Bush was fascinating, great sense of humor and a wonderful guy, but you would ask him a question or i would do this and do that, he would grunt, mont, rolled his eyes from the nod. You had to figure out what to do. If you are wrong, you are in trouble if you are right, you make it rewarded. Nothing he ever said could be brought before an impeachment inquiry, because he could say i just didnt say that. I just smiled. Going to impeach me for smiling . It is refreshing. It is scary. I like the fact he is not a politician. He has rough edges and he is telling us what he thinks. Host this is dominic out of new york. Caller good morning. I would like to know your guests opinion on the economy. I have a 93yearold man who says that in that will never forget his trump crossing over the dmz into north korea, powerful. Group, now that the mias are coming home, he stopped that guy from bombing. He goes were no one else would go. I think the economy is doing great. I would like to hear your opinion. Have a great day in happy thanksgiving. Happy thanksgiving. The numbers dont lie. It is miraculous what has happened. Jobs. E 7 million unfilled that is the population of the state of indiana. It is pretty amazing. When i hear comedian say i wish we had a recession, you know we get use to peace and prosperity. We get used to it. When you dont have peace and you dont have prosperity, herbert hoover, i think the American Media would love herbert hoover. He was brilliant, courtly, very careful with what he said from very president ial. He was an engineer. Scientists, were engineers. He fed europe after world war i when they were starving. He led us through this great depression. Up new thes spring major cities of america on the garbage dumps, people who could not keep their houses, so they went to the garbage dumps come up where they looked for scraps to build their own homes, where they look for food for the children. There was no sewage or running water. There were thousands of these hoovervilles across the country. That is how people suffer when the economy goes bad. It is fun when you are famous the rich, and it comedian to say we need a recession, because you want your team to win the white house. Actually prosperity is a wonderful thing. 6 Million People have gone off food stamps. That is a good thing. That is not a bad thing. Host did you have to sign a nondisclosure agreement in writing this book . Guest no, i didnt. That is why they debated it for a year. There were people in the white house opposed to the idea. When it finally broke, i said come on in. You can have whatever you want. Host no ground rules . Guest no ground rules except they say off the record or on the record, but hardly anything was off the record. I went with it. They are going to open the door. Im going through it. Host the book is inside Trumps White House the real story of his presidency. Doug wead for the next 25 minutes. A republican, good morning. Caller thank you for making your appearance on the show. I think youre levelheaded and fair in her opinions. Two quick statements and i would like your reaction. With the des that President Trump turned this economy around , it appears to me that the answers in how to do it were all along for everybody, republican and democrat, to see for many years. However, the democrats chose not to do it. The democrats it appears measure their success with the amount of people they could put on welfare and government assistance while the republicans measure their success with the amount of people they can put to work. The last thing i want to say is this is also applicable to our school system. It is not in the best interest of the democrats to educate our children to where they can all get great jobs as doctors, lawyers engineers, fire science, police officers, because if they can get good jobs, they will not need the assistance that the government has to offer to buy their votes. What is your opinion on my statement . Steve, i agree with your statement, and more. I spent 40 years in the republican establishment and came to the conclusion the democratic and republican establishments are both owned by great Multinational Companies with links to china in more recent years. Money. T it is all about for example, when i worked in the white house, almost all regulation drives out the competition. The small companies, if youre wanting to start your own business, you cant do it because of the mountain of regulation. Pass,hose regulations they get the monopoly and then there is a recession, so democrat republican, they pass a. Timulus bill nobody evers is read this to ms. Bill. They read their 12 pages, 15 senator, this the will help. The idea of this to ms. Bill is to help during a recession in the economy is down, but what they do is get the regulations. So get the regulations passed from you have to keep and you cant start a business because there is so many of them, then when there is a recession, they dont have to keep them either in order to create jobs. The name of the game is money. In the last few years, we have seen the largest transfer of wealth in World History outside the middle east from the United States middleclass china, and donald trump is taking that on. People, outrage to many many Multinational Companies dont like it. They own the companies that advertise on media, pay the bills on media, on the companies that provide the money for the think tanks, the pendants they go on the shows from the like me, right now. They get paid from a think tank that gets donations from these very companies, and donald trump is come in and turned over the tables. He is shattering the class. He hase outraged, but turned around the american economy. Host joe on twitter, but is your view on why the president wont reveal his taxes. Joe says i think it is only fair we can see him. Guest i have no idea why. I remember in the Campaign Come the 1988 campaign i have to be careful because there were a lot of dirty tricks in the 1988 campaign, but there was a big push to get the medical records of kitty dukakis, governor dukakis caucus his wifes medical records, so the gop spread horrible rumors, and they were defenseless because they couldnt for whatever reasons release these medical records. So there is probably a story behind the story, and my guess is we will eventually find out. It could also be a red herring knowing the president , something he is hiding and keeping close to the chest and when it comes out you will be disappointed. Host this is barney, democrat. Good morning. , you lie just as much. As trump just as much two. You tell me about the blacks on the bus. Bus,e blacks was on the why dont you see them in the public . You understand what i am saying, men . Man . You kind of make me want to throw up, man. Host another question about his relationship with the africanamericans. Guest i dont know what to tell you. They didnt hide who was on the bus. They went all over the country, but they werent given any attention for what they were saying or doing, and all i can tell you is the numbers as small as they may be are actually up among africanamerican supporting the president , so there are some who support him, and have increased their support of him. All i can say is he is very proud of the fact that unemployment is down, record lows for africanamericans. He is happy about that. He likes it. He is thrilled about it. He is thrilled by the young men who were allowed out of prison, nonviolent crimes, being held in prison, and he is happy about that. That is all i can say. Host you have written a book about president s children, and you have a chapter on each one of the president s children. Talk about the two that are in the public eye as much. Went into thed white house 10 years old, and he will come out a grown man. The stories in the book about cute. A really the second night after the inauguration, they are in the state dining room and these adults are having the quiet time together, the nightmare is over, they think, everything is done. Meanwhile, the eight grandkids ,re bracing bracing through screaming, laughing, playing hiding go seek. Barron is supervising. He tries to find them. In the state dining room, there is a Big Conversation among the adults. Inron comes running commencing what, what, what . They say, laura has just told us she is pregnant good he says, oh, ok, and races off. He has things to do, find kids hiding in the east room now. It is cute to hear his story. Now he has grown into a man. Tiffany goes to the white house every week. She loves to see him play soccer. Now they are really close buddies. It is interesting to see them as children. They have to survive all of this. Host what does tiffany do now . Guest she is going to georgetown law. All of this has changed her life completely. She grew up in california to georgia. She was one of the most interesting to interview because of that. She had not lived in new york. She has a perspective of the newark trumps. After she gave a speech at the rnc, she was instantly a celebrity. Before that she would walk all over the streets of new york. She could no longer do that. Everything ended after she gave her speech at the rnc. Now she spends those weekends at the white house, but she has Great Stories. For example, the night they all went to buckingham palace. There was no carriage with six white horses. There was no motorcade to take him to buckingham palace. They had to make it there themselves. Here is the trump family with their gowns and tuxedos, they rent a van bus that would take you to your rental car at the airport, and they piled in with all their dresses and gowns and tuxedos and said, take us to buckingham palace. Some Great Stories to tell. Host michelle is next out of schenectady, new york. Good morning. Caller good morning. U and youre you not hiring and training people, that is not real job growth. It is temporary. Republic to build a fake bubble economy. It is like 2006, 2007 all over again. You and history will show that the only reason why this presidency is doing better than the Obama Presidency is because republicans stymied obama with sequestration in 2010, causing the economy to suffer. The on the miss bill which was bipartisan omnibus bill had a lot of energy and renewable points to it that actually build up the economy, and it is still doing it today. Even governor norquest stated that they need to focus on the deficit and fight sequestration. Host more on the economy. Caller very guest very good points. It is sometimes complex. Sometimes these arguments cancel each other out. Some say there is no economic recovery and it is an illusion. Isers say there is, but it barack obama who caused the economic recovery. Sometimes they say both things in the same sentence. We are still tribal. We have our favorites. I see it after years in government as a racket. One company gets interest free money from the Federal Reserve, doesnt even go through a bank. It goes from the Federal Reserve to that company. One company gets federal money and is subsidized by federal money. One has to keep the environmental regulations. Another is exempted from that. It is very unfair and arbitrary and is based on lobbying. Joined donald trump because he is missing all that up. Credit all these jobs to barack obama. For example, he didnt improve the pipeline, so there is 160,000 jobs. There are differences between obama and trump, but there are good things to say about both of them. Host stephanie in michigan wants to know what your experience was compared to other folks about whats happening in the white house commencing at like to know if you saw the chaos described in Bob Woodwards book in Michael Wolffs book. Guest the answer is yes. I saw the chaos. I have a different take on it. I expect a lot of this chaos was calculated. I did that because i worked in the white house for George H W Bush. So much what we did was calculated. Some of my best friends who were journalists could not believe some of the things we did were actually calculated, but they were. It was spy versus spy versus spy versus spy. When you think you got the story straight, there is a politician manipulating it. I was in the white house not expecting it to be the way that way. I came out thinking everything was cockaded. Son sue said out of cast comes opportunity. Nato, donald trump blew up nato. Isa is our oldest treaty this is our oldest treaty. Look what hes doing to this treaty. They were talking to the media trump. Mouthing Donald Donald trump came in and he impersonated the generals. They would say sir, these are our friends. They are our friends, sir. Trump would say if they are our friends, why are they not keeping their . Why did they sign a document and say this percent of gdp will go to defense, and our middleclass has to pay for it . Why should i middleclass build highspeed railways in germany . Why should they pay for new airports across europe when they are descending into poverty. That is not a friend. Yes, they are our friends, sir. He blew up nato and nato got back to business and agreed once again they would meet their obligations. They raised 100 billion from nato. Remember his wall with mexico would cost 1. 6 billion. He raised 100 billion dollars from nato. It is stronger than it has ever been. The head of nato loves trump. That is the end result of this chaos. You blow it up, and you rebuild it. I can say the same thing about nafta. Ofre is a reason behind some the outlandish things that seem to be happening. Michigan,ing in teresa, republican. Good morning. Caller morning. Im wondering what you think about all the corruption in the white house. I am hearing somebody calling about the russian hoax. It is not a hoax. William barr has been implicated. Mike pompeo has been implicated. The reason donald trump doesnt want to turn over his taxes is because he has been getting russian money over the last decade and doesnt want the American People to know that he is working with russia, and everything he does has been helping russia. Guest center calling in, republican line, did you vote for donald trump in 2016 . Did vote for him, and im terribly sorry, america that i did vote for him, because this is the most corrupt i mean, there are so many things people have said and you dont correct them. You let them keep on going and spewing out lies. This is not a russian hoax. Donald trump is the most corrupt president we have ever had. Host got your point. Guest you think donald trump is a russian spy, ok, but more power to you. Bernie sanders has defended venezuela, the socialist government. Venezuela has Russian Troops on the ground in their country, defending and protecting. They have cuban bodyguards protecting maduro. 95s based in caracas, capable of delivering Nuclear Weapons to the United States. If youre going to talk about russian collusion, i mean, you had the Clinton Foundation of receiving 145 million from allian oligarchs, so through American History there have been these accusations. They said Thomas Jefferson was a french spy that the french own. They said john adams was a british spy that the british own. I dont see it. Im sorry. Happened, if it donald trump is a russian spy, it will be one of the most incredible events and all of World History, greater than columbus crossing the atlantic. It will be really something, but i doubt it. Theory will blow away all anonymous and look for primary sources and with the president said, and they will look for evidence. He is a russian spy, who will prove it . When did they recruit him . Did they have him increasing the military Defense Budget . Anddid they have him fight stop the socialist takeover in venezuela . Why is he doing all these things . Why did he increase the number of oligarchs to receive sanctions in russia . If he is a russian spy, they are doing a bad job of running him. Host doug wead, the book is inside Trumps White House the real story of his presidency is out. We will try to get to your calls and the time we have left. Monroe, louisiana, good morning. Drink i8 too much and too much, so im sorry. Too much and drink too much, so im sorry. You have had 40 years close to washington and to the conservative movement. I am very interested in the christian side of all of this, you mentioned a minute ago, i think they both said to the effect that the greatest generals know how they will win their war before the first soldier puts his foot on the ground. , with youring experience with the christian maturity all of the that has come to the christian political thinkers the last 40 years, do you see as being a much more powerful, do you see a Tipping Point coming around the world where you have the possibility of a mature Christian Church around the world they could begin to take the lead in developing something ive begun to call a new new world order, based on christian biblical ethics. Host i got the question. Guest i dont know if im capable or qualified to answer that. I know the president had a spiritual side to him that shocked me. He sent me a list of names from the white house interview, one was his friend, a pastor in florida. I did learn the story that his father loved Norman Vincent peel , the preacher in manhattan. As a little boy, he would take donald trump to that church, so he grew up loving Norman Vincent peel. He was upset when he died. He got a lot of inspiration from him. Jersey, democrat, good morning. Caller good morning, joan. Trump, hisl, donald first 100 judges appointed ,ommittee appointed 98 white one hispanic, one africanamerican. Secondly, you speak about his children in the white house, it is illegal for his daughter and soninlaw to be in the white house in the first place. They couldnt even get security clearance. He pushed it through. Thirdly, you speak about the Republican Party, to trillion dollar tax giveaway to the top 1 , and your bragging that they took 6 Million People off of unemployment. In early of the statement you , that they gave blacks food stamps, that is a racist statement in itself. The problem with the Republican Party is, and even with in the last 50 years, black Home Ownership is at the lowest in over 50 years come and you know who had a big part in that . Steve mnuchin. Steve mnuchin is in his cabinet. You talk about black people being on the bus . What about in his cabinet . His cabinet is the wealthiest, whitest cabinet in america. The key to it is when i talk about 98 of those judges were quite in one africanamerican and one hispanic, and you are telling me, he got, we got this host got your point. Guest that is food for thought. I will have to research that and see how right you are on that. I can say this, you can google billionaires and their support. You will see in the last election the billionaires supported the Democratic Party 201, every former president voted for the Democratic Party. The establishment was overwhelmingly democrat. 419 newspaper endorsements from 19 for george w. Bush. All of hollywood totally supported. When donald trump became president and announced a gdp of 3 , he was scorned by every major economist in the world. 100 . There wasnt one who broke and said i think he can do it. 100 against it. And it worked. And he did it. So the growth of the economy is good for all of us, regardless of our race, and the Supreme Court nominees, it is not an easy task. A lot of people feel he has done good. In the past, the republicans would get one, the democrats would get one from sometimes republicans would give the democrats another one. My president appointed a liberal of liberalot a lot ideas were winning and they need help in the judiciary. This president was elected by conservatives, so hes appointing them to the Supreme Court. Call,one more phone jacksonville, florida, independent. Good morning. Caller good morning. I want to make a couple of comments under question. The gentleman here seems like a nice guy. I dont know him, but then i dont know most historians. This is the thing though, i think one of the overriding things that the Trump Presidency will be known for among other things is just the constant overwhelming amount of lies, lies about things egg, buys about things small, lies about things in between. Obvious lies, tons and tons of them, starting before his presidency began, continuing to this day, even picking up according to experts to this day. And, you know, i know the first thing the trump apologists will say, obama lied. Bush lied. Lincoln lied. George washington lied. They all live. It is all the same thing. It is all about even. Know, oforians will course, that mathematically speaking, not just opinion, but mathematically speaking, the volume of lies this president superiorhis far, far than any other ones in my lifetime, for one in my lifetime, for sure. Probably in the history of the whole country. This gentleman is a historian who knows facts or whatever from history, and should have some knowledge of the monumental amount of lies the president has told. Does he realize the president is on a pace that far, far outstrips any other one that i can think of . Host i want to give doug the final minute or two. Y. Est thanks, ja answers,ave all the but you mentioned past lies that president s have told, and you can go all the way back to eisenhower, but you could not mention one. You said there are hundreds, thousands of lies that President Trump has told but you cannot mention one. I can remember lies told about him that he is a russian recruited byample, putin himself. I saw a report from one of the largest papers in the world that said that his wife was a prostitute, his son was autistic. I saw a comedian promoting the incest regarding this president. I hope we have on thanksgiving peace and prosperity, however it happen. Thank god weve got peace and thank god weve got prosperity. Host we appreciate your time this morning. Doug wead
