Happy Thanksgiving message your country is starting to do really well jobs coming back highest stock market ever military getting really strong we will build the wall v.a. Taking care of our vets great Supreme Court justice record cuts and regs lowest unemployment in 57 years and last night Mr Trump told Americans traffic in airports are running very smoothly the president spoke to American forces in Afghanistan Iraq Turkey and Bahrain as well as the u.s.s. Monterey who are really winning we know how to win he was talking largely about the various fights against international terror but quickly turned to what the troops are fighting for the economy is doing a really great when you come back you're going to see with the judge companies coming back into our country and the stock market just hit a record I unemployment so lowest it's been in 17 years so you're fighting for something real you're fighting for something good the president also mentioned how he's fighting for big fat beautiful tax cuts the president left Mar-A Lago to head to the nearby coast guard station that helps keep him safe on the resorts but he addressed the staff with words of praise for the Guard's response to hurricanes in Texas Louisiana Florida and Puerto Rico if you're looking at it as a brain and there's no brain and one of more than the Coast Guard with what happened in Texas particularly Texas has been incredibly safe 16000 lives nobody knows that Mr Trump told a coast guardsman in women that they can expect new updated equipment after years of what he said were cutbacks back at Mar a Lago aides say the 1st family dined on a traditional Thanksgiving feast with Florida stone crabs thrown in there but cost in teeny Washington it's 10 minutes past the hour on America in the morning the Navy is calling off the search for 3 sailors missing after their aircraft crashed in the western Pacific 8 of the 11 crew and passengers aboard the c.

Ronald Reagan the cause of the crash is under investigation in Argentina hopes are fading for the $44.00 crew members. On board a missing Argentine Navy submarine John Lawrence has new developments more than a week has passed since an Argentinian Navy submarine vanished in the Atlantic Ocean government officials now saying that an unexplained explosion on Thursday was detected near the last confirmed location of this. I don't know one of the places they did not tell us that they're dead but that's a logical assumption government officials gave an update to the families after the explosion took place I feel cheated they haven't been located but they talk about them being down 3000 meters they don't tell us anything but I tell you that they ratchet they manipulated us Argentinian officials say there wasn't evidence of any sort of an attack on the sub evidence of the explosion came from the United States and the Austria based Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization teams from 12 nations have been involved in the hunt for the San Juan it was supposed to have dock Sunday experts say that in the oceans depths the sub would only have $7.00 to $10.00 days worth of oxygen on board but the crew might have bought it so if more time they might have raised the tube to the surface and refresh the air inside the vessel there are all the Asli some things of the Lord that could help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide it since chemicals and so forth the most submarines to carry in the meantime family members can only wait for more information and think of their loved ones at this point most likely in the batteries have and did so they are in darkness except for flashlights and I'm sure it will together and hoping and praying for ever that's I'm John Lawrence reporting 12 past the hour now and when we come back the make up of a city council in California is getting attention and we'll explain right here on America in the morning after these messages.

The store opened the think they haven't so far we have not seen anyone lining up and that could be a little bit of people doing their shopping on Thanksgiving doing some shopping yesterday after dinner ordered to just be it is a chilly morning here and they just want to stay home and look for deals on why Black Friday is off a little bit of its luster over the last few years for both of those 3 the end retailers making those Thanksgiving openings and also the convenience factor shopping on life but it's still going to be a very important day 115000000 Americans expected to stop today according to the National Retail Federation for the 1st time this year is not just looking at Black Friday sales but looking at its full week at extending from Thanksgiving a 5 day through Cyber Monday to really get a sense of how consumers view how they're going to spend over the next few weeks I wonder if Target may be suffering a little bit because you know they said that their customers were tired of Christmas creeping so that they were downplaying Christmas sales in favor of Thanksgiving themed displays and things in the in the days leading up to now I wonder if that's told that if people have the idea or maybe they don't have a lot of good sales for Black Friday. Could be more than half of Americans said that they started their holiday shopping way before this weekend that's according to the National Retail Federation as well and a number of the struggling retail retailers feared Kmart or some of the stores we're looking at to see how they do whether it can they survive the holiday season they really wanted to drive consumers into the store and drive them to spend early so they started a lot of these sales early so the typical door busters may not be as a lorry is they have that when people show up for these things this time of the morning I see maybe you've done one of these before one of the normally looking for at 6 o'clock in the morning electronics electronics Electronic the big screen T.V.'s the kids because they have the couch and that seems to be what people are looking for them both on the Black Friday morning also Biddy oh gave them whatever it needs to.

On Tuesday 23 before the hour now it's America in the morning Michael to scan I'm sitting in for John trout this Friday morning but not just any Friday morning it's Black Friday as Steve Kasten bomb reminds us it's the day that stores are mobbed this really is a gauge of how the consumer is not only feeling but also spending consumer spending and retail analyst Heath Herzog says the last few Black Friday weekends were disappointing for retail companies this year they're banking on a turnaround now that people are starting to feel a little bit better about the economy we're starting to see those numbers pick up not only are more people doing their shopping this weekend Herzog says they plan to spend more this year than last year the National Retail Federation is estimating that around $64000000000.00 is going to be spent around Black Friday while door buster deals were still being advertised Herzog said I think we're going to see less of those being the one people were punching each other in the face in order to get a specific item to entice people into the stores she said a lot of electronics businesses are offering deals on combinations of goods they're going to start doing bundling deals which means you know big technology television along with you know maybe even video games they start like kind of putting everything together so that you buy one big package with Cyber Monday around the corner Herzog says big chain stores are less concerned about losing business to the Internet now because many of them have beefed up their own websites the marketing company Retail Me Not conducted a survey of shoppers and found that the average amount people plan to spend this weekend was $743.00 up from 503 dollars last year Steve cast inbound New York $21.00 before the hour and Tasha Chen reports on President Trump's Thanksgiving let's go down to the mine let's get him President Trump and 1st lady Maloney of Trump made a surprise Thanksgiving visit entering a small. Kitchen area of. Florida. To be here members of the Coast Guard particularly for their work in rescuing thousands of lives during this year's devastating hurricanes He also called 5 branches of the military to thank those who are unable to come home for the holiday anybody have any questions about how we're doing or. No one from the Coast Guard seemed to ask any questions but the president went on to tell them about the strong stock market something he also emphasized in his Thanksgiving video address on Twitter our stock market is headed a new all time high unemployment is at a 17 year low we've created 5 and a half trillion dollars worth of values we are doing something very special people are feeling it the enthusiasm in this country has never been there in his video he also offered prayers for the people affected by this year's hurricanes wildfires and shootings and the 1st responders who put themselves in harm's way to help others the people of this nation come from all different backgrounds but we are all one people and one American family we all share the same heart the same home and the same glorious destiny in Washington reporting its 20 before the hour on America in the morning and here's Jim Boeheim on this day after Thanksgiving a very special moment regarding President George h.w. Bush he has attained the age of 93 years 165 days and therefore passed Gerald Ford as the oldest president in American history an appropriate time perhaps to talk with historian Mark up to Grove about his new book from Harper publishing the last Republican subtitled inside the extraordinary relationship between George h.w. Bush and George w. Bush about that's a pretty stark title there the last Republicans obviously the Republican Party. Is out there with the House the Senate and the presidency it's not going. Anywhere you're actually right and this is. You have a Republican really only I mean he really does not represent many of the values that we associate with the republicanism certainly of George h.w. Bush and George w. Bush and as George w. Bush told me I may well be the last Republican president and I think whether I were a Clinton got elected in 2016 or Donald Trump there would be to a certain time. Public And isn't it interesting thought because the Certainly you can look at most any branch of conservatism of libertarians or social conservatives isolationist conservatives or neo conservatives supply siders or deficit hawks and they've always been people who've kept that branch of Republicanism or conservatism going I don't see any any wing of the Republican Party that could be called the Trump wing burst say there are a lot of people who certainly rally to Donald Trump but I don't see any disciples for example out there waiting in the wings if there's an heir apparent to this administration it would appear to be vice president Mike Pence and Mike Pence comes across to me as your garden variety socially conservative Republican and very different from Donald Trump in most viewpoints I can't agree more Jim in so many ways and Donald Trump you have a cult of personality somebody who is almost cannot be replicated and Donald Trump really at the end of the day stands mostly for Donald Trump there is no. Binding party platform that he stands for easy not an idealogue that we see you know very capricious he's very unpredictable. Right now looking at maybe the biggest headline that came out of your exploration into the last Republicans would be in a statement from George h.w. Bush on how he voted in 2016 Well I think the most resoundingly statement that both of the bushes made was was not verbal by. Rather the votes that they cast in the 2016 election when George h.w. Bush confirmed to me that he voted for Hillary Clinton George w. Bush confirmed to me that he voted for none of the above that is pretty remarkable for 2 stalwarts of the Republican Party as it is now I'm going to come back to that election in a moment because it's important in regards to Bush who did support Donald Trump I'm wondering the extent to which it's and that their father had been president the extent to which either George w. Bush or Jeb Bush went to their father and either asked about or said flatly I'm running for president well and George W.'s case it was really a matter of going to him saying I'm running for president I don't really think he saw his father's counsel its decision that he made on his own it really was a point of pride it's just that they they didn't have that kind of relationship what George h.w. Bush's greatest contribution to his children they will tell you was was in coal caving character and because he had done so he let them find their own way he was never a joke Tenet said you know Jack you've got to run for this or Joe you've got to run sure that he led his children all find their own way but I think he was very pleased when they got into public service which is the highest expression of love for country as far as the Bushes are concerned and the book the left Republicans wraps up with the name of George p. Bush George Prescott Bush who is the for those who don't know and tell us his relationship with Donald Trump Well he was the he is the eldest son Jeb Bush the only one of the Bush family currently in the political leaning arena George p. Bush serves as the land commissioner in the state of Texas he just got reelected to that. Wouldn't surprise me all at all rather if he had designs on the Texas State House as is Uncle George w. Once had a 1994 he was elected governor twice in the state of Texas but he was unique Bush's because he would be only one to support it counted to see. Donald Trump which he did well luckily it was a very donor pill for him to swallow given the fact that his father was vanquished as we all know at the hands of Donald Trump in the. Upon seeking the Republican nomination in 26 and historian Mark up the grove the author of The Last Republicans published by Harper thanks Jim it's 14 before they are still to come on America in the morning John Stone is with our football wrap up will be back after these messages.

Johnstone this is with us now lots of football John good morning Michael we had ourselves a Thanksgiving Day n.f.l. Triple header yesterday with the best game of the day coming before the food even hit the table the Minnesota Vikings have essentially proven that they are one of the best teams in the n.f.l. Over the last couple of weeks one week after being a very good Rams team quarterback a scheme threw for 2 touchdowns and ran for another in a 3223 win over the Lions in Detroit it was the team's 7th straight win as Keenan was 21 of 30 for 282 yards the Vikings who are now 9 and to hold a 3 game lead over the Lions in the n.f.c. North in the 2nd game of the day Philip Rivers threw for 434 yards and 3 touchdowns . As the Los Angeles Chargers coasted to a 286 win at Dallas it's been a struggle for the Cowboys since they lost star running back is the Elliott his suspension began a few games ago and the Cowboys went a team record 10 quarters without a touchdown before Rod Smith 2 yard scoring run early in the final quarter both teams are now $5.00 and $6.00 on the season and are on the outside looking in of the playoff picture at the moment finally in the nightcap Washington earned an ugly 20 to 10 win over the New York Giants leaving the Redskins tied with Dallas for 2nd place in the n.f.c. East Kirk Cousins put the Redskins ahead to stay with his 2nd touchdown pass of the night of 14 yarder to Josh Dotson with 331 remaining cousins also threw an interception that was returned 53 yards by a generous Jenkins for the Giants' lone touchdown the 2 and 9 Giants had the ball for just over 25 minutes and compiled only 170 yards on 51 plays in college football on ranked Mississippi won the Egg Bowl for the 4th time in 6 seasons a surprising number 16 Mississippi State 31 to 28 in Starkville Mississippi state led 10 to 6 in the 3rd quarter until a couple of long touchdown strikes by the rebels the win helped make old Miss Ball eligible they're now 6 and 6 on the college hardwood 5th ranked Villanova will take on Northern Iowa in the battle for Atlanta's championship game Jalen Bronson scored 25 points in the Wildcats rallied from 15 down to beat Tennessee 8576 Northern Iowa earned that meeting with Villanova by holding off North Carolina State 6460 Meanwhile 2nd ranked Arizona dropped its 2nd straight game in the tournament falling to s.m.u. 6660 it's unlikely Arizona stays ranked number 2 when the new rankings come out top ranked Duke took care of Portland State 9981 it was number 4 Michigan State 73 to Paul 5117 Florida want to wait Stanford 87 it was number 9 North Carolina over Portland 102278 number 150.
