appealing to that majority of voters who did not support his presidency let alone, by the way, the many republican voters who probably pulled the lever only because they disliked him less than they disliked the other option. if you think the situation was reversed, do you think hillary clinton supporters would be reaching out and embracing i m not talking about the supporters, just the candidates or hillary clinton would be embracing my point is for contrast we have to just look at the presidency of president obama who in 2008 won a pretty strong margin, had a very large mandate, and yet he in his cabinet appointed moderates, appointed conservatives, republicans, really looked for an ideologue cal diversity. quickly, jack, balls i want to move on. general flynn is a democrat, one of his first and highest ranking members, advisers is general flynn, a democrat. and so was donald trump once. i don t think it counts at this point in that sense. i think, sally, no matt
congressman jack kingston, senior adviser to the trump campaign. so far mitt romney said we ll see. donald trump said we ll see. it was cordial. all right. let s discuss. sally, you first. we know trump had dinner with mitt romney tonight. if he picks mitt romney as his secretary of state, what does it say about him, about trump? uh, that i mean i don t know. that his capacity for forgiveness is unparalleled? it would be a stunning thing if, frankly, given the things he said trump picks romney. i think it is more interesting in the other direction, if romney who tried to take a very principled stand in the campaign decides, uh, you know, power is more important than principles and this person i bashed as uniquely disqualified, unqualified to be leader of the free world, i m now going to actually go help him and serve his das tarredly agenda.
would be some concern about it from the base. sally put an interesting perspective on it, but i think the base don, as you know and i had the honor of being a frequent visitor on your show during september and october, and there were some bleak days, there were some tough days. i think those of us in the fox hole may have looked around and said, well, who else is in the fox hole passing the ammunition, and if you did not see somebody and now they re up there for a cabinet consideration, you tend to think, oh, man, that s a little bit bother some. but, again, let me say this, he needs to get the guy who he likes, somebody who is going to implement his policy and work for him. and that s officially known as a kingston-ism. go ahead, sally. no, this is a very interesting perspective to think about, look, you know, donald trump won the presidency, won the electoral college, but the majority of voters did not vote for him, and yet he has shown stunningly little interest in
is bar room talk and he said with respect to scott foval, his comments on tape, they are flat out wrong and we ve gone to extreme measures to make sure no violent took place at any of our counter protest events and for its parts the dnc is distancing themselves from the whole thing and no evidence anything on this tape actually occurred. they did agree with bob kramer he should separate from the campaign and they re going to investigate they say james o keefe to see if he did anything illegal in gathering these tapes. it says bar room talk. that sounds very room to what we ve been talking about and he s been getting so much criticism for. that s absolutely right. is this bar room talk where you re talking about insurance s instigating violence. that is what he called it. it is politics, but it is awful. thank you. here to discuss, sally cone
case closed. or is it? because donald trump is not so sure. the 14th amendment says very, very clearly to a lot of great legal scholars, not television scholars, but legal scholars, that it is wrong. it can be corrected with an act of congress. probably doesn t even need that. by the way, mexico, and almost every other country, anywhere in the world, doesn t have that. we re the only ones dumb enough, stupid enough, to have it. the truth is, you can t just wave your hands and say the 14th amendment is going to go away. and she would be right. you can t do that. my lawyers can t wait to weigh in on this. paul is a trial attorney, former prosecutor and cnn legal analyst. sally cone is also a lawyer, in case you did not know, she s also a columnist for the daily beast. i bring this out often. it s my little pocket constitution. let s just read through it just so everyone s clear. section one, all persons born or
