class, or union member. that articulation in connection sort of fell flat. and this is why think we can explain why andrew yang is still on the stage. some people were confused. it s because he presents him self as a washington outsider. it s very clear, you re going to get a thousand bucks. but having said that, it sounds like that you think that the democrats have failed to some extent. does that mean that they ve handed a victory to president trump because he s giving them oh, no. i m sorry. i don t think they re all failing. for example, i mentioned pete buttigieg. think he made a very compelling case that we are running out of time as a country. and if we don t start dealing with the crisis of climate change, that there will be in ten years, you know, 100 million more guns on our streets, how long are we going to wait to deal with these? we can t afford to. i think he s playing olaying ou kind of argument and he s not engaging to what s happened in the last 20 years in washi

receive him. one other special person or guest, not a person, is the president s dog, sully. he is accompanying him from houston here to washington. sully is a golden lab that has been at his side to help him as he s really struggled with the effects of parkinson s disease. that dog, sully, was at the foot of the casket in houston overnight. spent the night there at president bush s casket, and once he arrives in washington, he will be given to the army medical center to help other veterans who need a service dog as they deal with the effects of their injuries and wounds. wow. i ve got a friend named sully. he s got one too. thank you so much, tom. for more now on the president and his elegacy, i m joined by
