0 skis. ambition is a good thing. aspiration is a good thing. that s how you motivate people. you should advance your policy agenda but the president was unable. not sure he could have in this social media age. unable to manage expectations in his party for how much they could do. and for americans who don t check their list every day they look at washington and say what the hell is going on there? and they look at the prices at the grocery store and they look at the prices at the gase station. we expect president biden to address a number of pressing challenges, including the standoff at the russian/ukrainian border. ginn joining us now, christiane amanpour. what can president biden say today to bring down the temperature of this standoff to convince vladimir putin that an invasion, again, is the wrong idea? well, jake, actually in the words of the state department official today, perhaps diplomacy is not dead. a very united and strong front led by the united states with the nato
change and then you have this 85 car motorcade riding around and when i asked president biden i would ask imply which attacks the market people make them pay for climate change issues and for electric vehicle subsidies why is that you ve don t put more pressure on china and india and the two biggest polluters in the world because what is happening right now is it s all coming off the backs of the american people. but this answer, $303.40 from the national average today in the year ago it was $2.40, while prices are a seven-year high around $85 a barrel. and that was the longest time so why is that we have to pay more to pay for the parallels helping across the globe when it comes to climate change and everybody else can just shrug their shoulders look the other way. you like me and you like to lift weights, not afraid and afraid to throw a few pounds around and canoeing sling have
fell apart. we re comparing falling down to this big rally. look at gas prices, for example. i wanted to take this out of percentage terms and just say last year if you had a typical car with 12 gallons of gas, you paid $26 to fill it up. this year you re paying $37. that s $11. that s real money oops, that s real. that s $11. that s real money out of your pocket. look at other consumer prices. say you had $100 in groceries. this year you re paying $2.40 more. maybe you can make changes in what you re buying. those are real increases. used car prices, this is a third, a third of it is just because of used cars. but there is a really funky reason here. last year all the car rental agencies sold off their fleets. used car prices cratered because of all the supply. now what s happening? you can t get a new car easily because of the chip shortage. all of this is because of covid
governor, let s look ahead to the head-to-head match-ups. biden beats trump by 14 points, sanders beats him by 8, warren by 6. senator kamala harris runs about even with the president. this is 42/40. so, i don t know, what do these numbers do to this conversation about electability? if i can get my mouth working. it s so hard to know what electability means because it means different things to different people, but i will say, i mean, joe biden s lead has been solid, been secure. there is this conversation i think over who s going to be the second person. this poll is kind of interesting because it has bernie sanders in the second spot. the other poll out earlier had elizabeth warren in the second spot. right now the battle is over that second spot. so whose shoes would you
sufficient. you have to win the peace after that. that s what obama walked away from. bush won the war in iraq. obama lost the peace. the same thing in libya. we opposed qaddafi, elected by his people. we lost the whole country. out of there, lost our embassy. it s a failed state. have you got to be willing to work the peace after the conflict. and i hoping the president gets some advise from his new national security advisor to that effect. ainsley: if you are experienced, general mattis, general john kelly served on his cabinet. what would their advice be to the president? pete: is he hearing from a lot of different voices. all of which experienced the iraq war. obama as he said pulled out too quickly. you don t want obama 2.40. folks supposed to keep the peace have not ready yet. the more actors in iran and russia set the initiative and he this take over. now you have got a whole another powder keg.
