Congratulations, mr. President. Rose while some hoped President Trump might use his address as a call to unity instead delivered a speech as a call for action that repeated a Constant Campaign theme to make america first. We are issuing a new deck to be heard in every city, in every foreign capital and in every hall of powe power. From this day forward, a new vision will govern our land. From this day forward, its going to be only america first, america first. cheers and applause every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on Foreign Affairs will be made to benefit American Workers and american families. We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products, stealing our companies and destroying our jobs. Rose President Trump also made the bold vow to eliminate radical islamic terrorism. We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones and unit the civilized world against radical islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate completely from the face of the earth. cheers and applause at the bedrock of our politics, well be a tote ail ledges to the United States of america and through our loyalty to our country, we will rediscover our loyalty to each other. Rose and in dramatic terms, President Trump described what has happened in this country as the american carnage. Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities, rustedout factories scattered like too many stones across the landscape of our nation, an Education System flushed with cash but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of all knowledge, and the crime and the gangs and the drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential. This american carnage stops right here and stops right now. Rose despite this peaceful transfer of power which is a hallmark of democracy, america remains in some ways a divided country. President trump enters office with less Popular Support than any new president in modern times. With me now for a look at the president s first day and the weeks ahead, al hunt of bloomberg view, Mckay Coppins of the atlantic, Mark Leibovich of the New York Times magazine, and Margaret Talev of bloomberg news. Margaret, the speech. Certainly a different speech than the one barack obama gave eight years ago. Rose aspirational for sure. Less specific in terms of the types of groups he would call out both domestically and abroad. President obamas speech called to muslims, hindus, people around the world, mention of allies and enemies. President trumps speech was entirely a u. S. Focus speech. You can say it was focused on his core, but beyond that wasnt focused beyond the shores of the United States other than to suggest foreign interests whether allies or enemies are all out to get us chickly. Pretty striking. I agree, but it was quite different than the speech Ronald Reagan gave in 19981, lacked the optimism reagan had when he was delivering some of the same conservative messages, and it was different than the speech george w. Bush gave in 2001 when he was you know, he showed such grace and civility towards al gore whom he actually tied with as opposed to lose the popular vote. So it was a very confrontational speech. He talked about american carnage. America has lots of problems. Im not quite sure there is a carnage abroad in the land, but it was a dark speech in many ways, and i think its one that certainly appealed to his base. I dont have any question of that. His base i think is about 39 of the american people. I think governing with 39 is going to be a challenge. Rose mark . I would disagree with the notion it wasnt an an spiringsle speech. I think through the bleakness of the rhetoric, there actually was quite a bit he was promising, ending radical islamic terrorism, ending the carnagage, essentially, he is creating a high bar for himself through the bleak language. Also noting obama has given him a long way to falama elected twr vote twice, leaving with high approval ratings, unemployment around 4. Once news starts happening, donald trump will own it and i think people will come back to the somewhat aspirational i can do this tone of today and it might be something to have to account for. Rose hold him to that standard. Correct. I was struck about how little effort he made to reach out to the voters who didnt support him in this election. This is a president who lost the popular vote by 3 million votes. I remember talking to republicans on the night of the election, and i remember a lot were excited that if his victory speech he did make a point of reaching out to the rest of the country. You didnt hear that in his speech today and i guess im puzzled as to why. I think everyone here is in kind of an agreement that this was a speech for his base. It sound add lot of the same populous themes he used on the campaign trail but not a speech themed for the whole country. Rose ive come to the conclusion while this might have been a populous message, started as a campaign strategy, hes come to believe these things. I think as he spoke that, he constantly comes back to it, hes never left it, i think thats where he is in terms of what he thinks the movement is and what he thinks he has to do. I think maybe i think he has listened to his base very clearly. I think he is basically terrified of being accused of being a sellout by the people who elected him. One thing donald trump has shown, you know, strangely through the transition is he likes to impress the person in front of him. He will not be surrounded by establishment. Even the body language with the leaders in the house and the senate, the obamas, was pretty warm if i could read body language. Well see how that evolves. Hes trying to play two games i think thats a good point. The complications and the challenges that it poses, i think he is very attuned to it. In the last couple of weeks he i had everyone will be insured. Thats not republican orthodoxy, thats democratic orthodoxy. You know, can he deliver on that, going to marks earlier point . He also says the government, medicare, should negotiate drug prices. The republicans found that horrifying. If you go to kentucky or West Virginia and talk to that base who we paint as right wing religious nuts, they will be for that, too. So i think it will be interesting to see how the paul d on Foreign Policy, which was barely mentioned today, that cloud of russia is hanging over this administration from the early days. Rose he didnt speak to russia at all. He didnt speak to any Foreign Policy other than the bleak reference we enrich other countries and i assume he was talking about china. Rose lets talk at what we saw. There were all these people including Hillary Clinton on the podium. He did not mention her. I assume that he might do that. That has been often what pays some sense of someone for making a good fight. I think one thing that people miss you mentioned reagan and bushs speech, if you talk to obamas people, about half, not all of them, there was some regret at his address eight years ago that he was seen as a bit ungracious of george w. Bush, partly because he painted a bleak picture of george w. Bushs america, the economic crisis. It was a much more political speech than obama himself i think would have an instinct to do. What is interesting about a speech like this, if you are very gracious and bend over backwards to praise your opposition, you sort of guarantee yourself a 5 or 10 jump. You get a lot of points that way. But he seemed very, very you know, very conscious rose going into this, and we were there at 11 30, we started at 7 00, and during the entire morning conversations on cbs, it was about this is his moment to show an appeal to unity. Well, you know, whats really interesting is this does answer the question of how will he change at the end of the transition, right . I mean, he blew through the election rose you expected him to shift and he didnt do it in the transition. No, he resisted. I think foreign leaders were asking is he going to stop ebeating up on ten misand bring people together when he takes the oath of office . At least rhetorically in terms of the speech, the answer is no. When you look at the relationship between trump and obama which has been so contentious for so many years with the birther continue varies trump was fueling and obama calling him out and stuff, obama has really made an effort since the election to bring trump into the fold and communicate with him. Rose from everything i hear, they have been talking a lot on the phone. Thats right. What we hear. I think we have to say there were a couple of moments toward the end where he talked about the soldiers and detroit and nebraska, they were im going to disagree with mr. Leibovich, which is a dangerous position, Ronald Reagan laid down the gauntlet in 81 but differently. He gave credit to carter. He mentioned mondale, i believe, and he set that predicate, and then he laid out his vision. But he did it with an uplifting, sunny sunny is not the right word, an optimism, a can do. Thats what was lacking today. Rose absolutely. I was on the National Mall surrounded by Trump Supporters today and i would say it was not a sunny speech for everyone listening to that. But if youre somebody who is a trump supporter who thinks the vision of the country as it is now that trump laid out during this campaign, if you bought into that, then this speech today probably did give you hope. There were several moments during the speech where i would look around and Trump Supporters were giddy, practically giggling as what he was saying. I felt the underlying sense of folks, im serious about all of this. I have been talking about it for a long time and im serious about all of this and i promise you im going to do it. The other sense was he was going to slay all the dragons. Of the dragons he wants to slay, are they appropriate targets . Theyre his targets. There were no new dragons that appeared today. These were the old dragons. The biggest dragon he wants to slay is washington. The biggest dragon he wants to say is the establishment rose i will tell you that people like bob gates and a rage rage range of other people think washington is the problem because of gridlock and nothing is happening here. That is true, but you cant slay a system and what do you have at the end. You have to figure out a way to make the system work for you. Thats what i see no indication of. Rose how to make the system work. Reached with partisan doles with the rhetorical message. Rose gridlock so farwhelming. You can feel over the heads of politicians. So many president s have run against washington. Everybody has a different definition of what washington is congress, president , lobbyist, k street whatever, the establishment is a distraction and well see what he fights for and what the contours of the debate take the shape of. But the reason for the obama administratioobstruction policys about winning or losing or im going after you on twitter, its hard to see how you come together on the stuff you need a legislative deal for other than executive power. Well see with the first wave of executive actions how much he can do. The real interesting dichotomy, if you will, is that, number one, he starts with the least popular incoming president in our lifetime. That should be a problem. On the other hand, he has a more Republican Congress than any newly elected president since herbert hoover. That didnt end so well, but no other republican in the years since then ever has. Rose he said my first job is to look at america and you will have to pay your fair share and institutions will have to change. The thing about populous nationalism is by its definition its popular with the average voter and sounds good to the average american listening to it. One thing i was struck by the speech, he said every country has the right to look out for their own interests first and that, of course, could be true, but a lot of the global peace and stability weve had over the past half century has been built around alliances like n. A. T. O. Where countries are willing to look out for each other in a way that trump doesnt seem as interested in. Granted, we havent heard a lot of specifics, but the way he talks about these things, he doesnt seem like he thinks its that important. He said n. A. T. O. Is obsolete. So i think a lot of people are nervous about this idea that america is going to withdraw from the world and focus entirely on its own interests. Rose go ahead. Phao pick a day at random, when the tin horn little dictator in north korea says, you know, i want to go amman mano mano withe president of the United States and ask the chinese to help him and the chinese say why dont you call taiwan. laughter rose does he lead a movement . He talked about a movement in the speech. Yes, it got him elected. Is it a governing movement, a governing coalition and can it proceed from here . Rose its a populous movement. A populous movement and he also explicitly said to the New York Times when he was visiting six or eight weeks ago this is him maybe trying to schmooze us saying youre going to be very happy with me, and said you will be happy with me as apt but not necessarily a conservative president. That may have been him trying to cater to a largely progressive Editorial Board which was in the meeting or it could have kind of foreshadowed a tension that will exist between him and the more traditional republican base. I think thats absolutely right. You already are hearing from orthodox conservative republicans who are privately very very worried about the trumpism that he has championed and whether thats going to overtake conservatism in the Republican Party. Parties change. Remember, goldwater reshaped the Republican Party. Its not a given that the Republican Party is going to remain entirely or overwhelmingly conservative party going forward. Here is the sort of issue i think will really join. This mark mentioned infrastructure a minute ago. You could put together a bill tomorrow, a huge infrastructure bill that would get a bunch of republicans but a distinct minority and almost all the democrats. But paul ryan and Mitch Mcconnell probably wont find that acceptable. Or you could put together a bill that would get together almost all the republicans, no democrats and probably couldnt get through the senate. So which one which route do you go and how do you do it . Rose where are we on the security issue with respect to russia and these intercepted messages from russia . I think this is a big story. I think this is a drip, drip, drip story and its going to keep going. Rose remind us of the story on the front page. There are three Close Associates of trump, paul manafort, roger stone and carter page, who there are interceptede correspondence or phone calls from russia, and trump denied having anything to do with it. Rose what do the intercepts say . I dont know but they exist. The question is can you tie people close to trump with the disruptions in the election . If you can, its criminal and you can prosecute them. I dont think you will be able to prove the russians are black mailing trump. Rose some things in dossier were clearly. Right. But when i read that times story today i wonder would carter page or roger stone heaven help us roger stone would be involved inning in nefarious or paul manafort, but, i mean, in that sense and this is all unsubstantiated. This is really the first time that a new president has come in office with at least a little bit of a cloud hanging over him since Richard Nixon in 73. Rose do you see any humility in donald trump . Youre looking at me like are you nuts . He does say, its not me, its the movement. Its not me, its you people. But he knows that he needs this base. He knows that he needs this base of disaffected workers in the former rust belt and lots of working class voters across america. He knows without them he really doesnt have rose he won this election because he pierced the blue wall
