Should have seen it coming. I would like to start with what was my personal favorite moment in the book which is the first meeting between donald trump and steve bannon who would become a very influential political strategist in his world where he explains to trump that he cannot if hes thinking of running for president he cant do it as a traditional republican. Can you describe the scene . First of all, thank you for having me. One of the things you have to remember is donald trump didnt come into this he had been thinking about running for president for years but he wasnt sure, he did to have an identity. Sometimes he was democrat, sometimes republican, someone independent. By 2012, he was getting serious about it and a conservative activist, was a friend of Donald Trumps and he decided to talk about running for president and they took their friend who didnt know donald trump at that point up to new york at a meeting to talk about the possibility.

The battleground states and joe biden saying patients because as we said james, there are still. Our least hundreds of thousands of ballots yet to count. These are not new votes. These are not ballots that have just been found. But they were cast in many cases months ago, yeah, thats right. These were the early polls. Counts the mail in ballots that for some states had to wait until day of ballots were counted before they could then be process which is why its no surprise that for some states were still
