this is sething that frustrates his supporters. they say they want him to play big ball, not small ball, and to really focus on provable facts and of course you have a lot of republicans saying there s no proof of what he s saying. take a listen to what house speaker paul ryan had to say earlier today. i see no evidence to that effect and i made that very, very clear. i don t know how widespread it was but i do know it is a real problem, it s a remember cystent problem and democrats are dug in, they don t want to answer the question how widespread voter fraud is. reporter: so ted cruz giving the alternate vowpoint there. this is something we will undoubtedly ask press secretary sean spicer about when he starts his second official briefing at the white house. you got ten seconds, ari melber. sean spicer represents the united states not just donald trump and if he s honest in his press conference he has to speak to the fact that we have 50 secretaries of state, we have election
that people on medicare can have the benefit of that. is that sething that you would press congress to do? in other rd repeal the prohibition on that negotiation? i think we need to find solutions to the challenges of folks gaining access to needed medication. i m not and it may be that one of those is changing the way that the negotiations as you know, the negotiations right now occur for seniors with since i have limited time, and you haven t said yes or no, look, you just talked about transparency. would you support drug price transparency mandating that any drug company that wants to increase prices on their drugs release public information on how they set their prices? because so many of these appear to be without justification, as you just mentioned. yeah, i think there s a lot of merit in transparency in every area, certainly in this area. and i would look forward to
confederate license plates and riding around town acting like crazy people. and that s going to send a signal to the world that this guy is bringing in the alt-right. and a lot of people are saying they re not coming. to the inauguration? to the inauguration. how does he counter that? he counters that by what he s doing now. there s some people within the transition team that are reaching out to the congressional black caucus. there s not a meeting set yet, but the congressional who s black on the new ticket, the new team? who, besides dr. carson? anybody else? right now omarosa is working oh, god let it go, let it go, let it go. i m looking at the cabinet level positions. i ve got sething for you for something you don t know when are people going to start pebeating the drum and sa you better start mixing it up. that s interesting, because george w. bush had the most diverse administration there is. that s the tallist building inst city, right?
election? it was kind of a shame, not very graceful. the problem with palmieri s argument, the reason it doesn t work is, a, you d have to believe there were enough white supremacists to swing the election. b, you would have to believe that those white supremacists used to vote for democrats in pennsylvania, wisconsin, michigan, and ohio. particularly eastern ohio. so it was her argument really that white supremacists used to vote for democrats and now vote for republicans? there s no basis to the argument. it came up a lot during the campaign. now everybody wants donald trump to somehow distance himself. that reminds me of when richard nixon said, you know, the people deserve to know if their president s ape crook. i m not a crook. and every political practitioner from then on understood that you don t repeat your opponent s claims. joe, is there sething to palmieri s accusation that the trump campaign played to white supremacists? well, they didn t try hard 5 enough to disavow
