[ light laughter ] ladies and gentlemen we have a great show for you tonight. [ cheers and applause ] he is a cnn anchor, and his latest book the rainbow comes and goes is out now in paperback. Our friend Anderson Cooper is back on the show. [ cheers and applause ] i cannot tell you how excited i am about this. She is a Country Music icon, and her new album, sing it now songs of faith and hope, is fantastic. Reba mcentire, the legend, here tonight. [ cheers and applause ] and, in honor of the 141st annual Westminster Kennel Club dog show, which airs live on nat geo wild february 12th through the 14th, im going to learn how to properly handle a dog. So that will be fun. Especially since ive had dogs my whole life, and ive obviously been doing it wrong. [ light laughter ] before we get to all that, President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order, implementing a freeze on federal hiring. But the order has attracted criticism, specifically for its impact on veterans. For more on this, its time for a segment we call the check in. [ applause ] seth so, throughout the campaign, trump boasted about his military expertise and admiration for those who have served our country. The vets, oh, those vets, i love those vets. Were gonna take care of those vets. Ive worked hard for the vets. Theres nobody bigger or better at the military than i am. Seth theres nobody better at the military . [ light laughter ] im also very good at the civilian. [ light laughter ] despite his great admiration for the troops, and the military as a whole, young donald trump never got the opportunity to serve his country on the battle field. Trump was sidelined during the war in vietnam, due to a tragic ailment. I had a foot thing, and i got a deferment for that. Which foot did you have the bone spur in . Uh, youll look it up in the records. I dont know, its in the records. Seth trump knows the difference between right and wrong. Its right and left that give him trouble. [ light laughter ] what a harrowing moment that must have been, when the doctor walked in and said, i dont know how to tell you this, you have a foot thing. [ light laughter ] trump later said he felt bad about not serving in vietnam. And lets give him serious credit here, he did donate over 1 million to build a vietnam war memorial in downtown manhattan, which was completed in 1985 and which he bragged about during the campaign. But questions arose about how involved he really was in the process. For example, a 1984 article in the washington post, revealed that trump went to only two or three out of the 20 meetings. You couldnt even sit in the meetings . Did the bone spurs in your foot spread to your ass . [ laughter ] but trump was very, very proactive about another issue that had to do with disabled military veterans. In 1991, trump tried to get local politicians to ban street vendors, which also included those with special disabled veterans licenses. Writing in a letter, while disabled veterans should be given every opportunity to earn a living, is it fair to do so, to the determent of the city as a whole, or its tax paying citizens and businesses. Do we allow fifth ave, one of the worlds finest and most luxurious shopping districts, to be turned into an outdoor flea market, clogging and seriously downgrading the area. The only thing that would be more expensive and inconvenient to new yorkers, is if the president lived in a tower with his name on it. Now [ laughter and applause ] lets get lets get to the department of veterans affairs. Throughout his campaign, trump constantly brought attention to problems at the v. A. Specifically, how poorly it is run. And hes right about that. For many years now, under both bush and obama, many parts of the v. A. Have been found guilty of fraud, and are providing shoddy health care to our veterans. But trump himself was criticized in december for not meeting with major veterans groups during the transition period. With one prominent veterans advocate writing, its a month after the election, and he still hasnt made time for a single leader from a National Veterans service organization. But in trumps defense, he was busy meeting with other brave american heroes. Oh, yes. [ light laughter ] who could ever forget how hard and how bravely kanye west fought for taylor swifts microphone. [ light laughter ]w now one of the main problems at the v. A. Is that many departments, including v. A. Hospitals, are chronically understaffed. But one of trumps first moves as president , was to put a freeze on federal hiring. Thats when press secretary sean spicer, said the focus on staffing was overhyped. I think the v. A. In particular, if you look at the problems that have plagued people, hiring more people isnt the answer. Seth hiring more people is not the answer, unless the question is where are all the [ bleep ] people . [ laughter ] does anyone work here . I now the other issue [ applause ] the other issue with the federal hiring freeze is that veterans get preference when it comes to federal hiring in general. And according to advocacy groups, several veterans have already had job interviews canceled or postponed. Some have even shared personal stories, like a 30yearold air force veteran whod recently returned home after a decade of active duty. He was supposed to start working at an agency that evaluates contracts for the department of defense. But thanks to that hiring freeze, the start date has been postponed indefinitely. He told mens journal, this morning i got a call from the Human Resources rep saying there is nothing she can do, which would be a good slogan for the Trump Administration so far, theres nothing we can do. [ light laughter ] this whole thing is just another example of trump signing these executive orders in haste, without thinking about the consequences, and in turn leaving a trail of chaos. You know, at first i thought he was just showing off his signature. But now i think hes going, hey, can someone read this to me . I feel like this might be a terrible idea. [ laughter ] a lot of the people affected by this freeze are people who serve this country. People for whom trump promised to fight. And instead hes making it even harder for them to assimilate back to civilian life by, in some cases, taking away their ability to work. And thats hard, but dont think donald trump cant empathize, because remember i had a foot thing. [ laughter ] seth this has been the check in. [ cheers and applause ] well be right back with Anderson Cooper, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] unstop right there im about to pop a cap of mmm fresh in that washer with unstopables inwash scent boosters by downy.

They just come from all around the country in these, sort of, they march up and down, like, this row. [ light laughter ] and they do their act, you know. And i judge them on whos the best one. Seth now, if im lets say im a laurel impersonator, do i have to show up with a hardy . Fred absolutely. Seth okay. [ light laughter ] fred we dont have time to, like, match people up. Seth oh, all right. [ light laughter ] fred thats unfair to everybody there. Seth gotcha. Fred i mean, its packed. Seth and how many pairs of people then how many laurels and hardies do you have every year . Fred oh, up to 70. [ light laughter ] you know, and they just go up and down for, like, a couple hours, and i judge it. And they win 70. Seth oh, wow. [ light laughter ] fred it matches the 70 people. Seth so, is it based on how many people . Fred yes. Seth okay, gotcha. Fred yeah. Seth so if 100 people are there, the prize money would be . Fred 100. Seth okay. Fred yeah.

Fred thank you. Seth give it up for fred armisen. [ cheers and applause ] our first guest tonight is an emmywinning journalist who hosts Anderson Cooper 360 weeknights on cnn. He is the coauthor of the New York Times bestseller, the rainbow comes and goes a mother and son on life, love, and loss, which is out now on paperback. Please welcome back to the show our friend Anderson Cooper, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] seth welcome back thanks, good to be here. Seth so this is so much fun. Last time we were here, you were talking about how interesting it was writing a book with your mother. Yes. Seth you wrote it over email a lot. Yes, i did. Seth you did . My mom and i dont actually like see each other, so. [ light laughter ] no. It was just easier that way. Seth but now you are doing press together. We did press when the book first came out. My mom turns 93, actually, at the end of february, so seth its amazing. Yeah, it is. [ cheers and applause ] and, and its weird, though, doing press with your mom, like, as you well know. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] you know, you discover all these things about this person who you never like my mom, and also at age now 93, she has no filter anymore. Seth right. I mean, she never really had a filter. Like, as a child, she told me early on, the first time she didnt fake an orgasm was with howard hughes. I was like [ light laughter ] seth and do with that what you will. I didnt understand. I know was like you know, when i was 10 at the time. [ light laughter ] it was inappropriate. But, so, i was at andy cohens show, watch what happens live. We were he was going to interview my mom and me, and my mom had never seen his show. Seth right. And, so, i told her a little bit about it while were in the greenroom. And she turned to me, and she says, hes not going to ask me who has the biggest [ bleep ] in hollywood, is he . [ laughter ] i know. Seth i was i know. I was like, who are you . Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] i was like, who, what . Seth yeah. Like, please, never say that word to me again. [ light laughter ] and then, andy comes in, and i turned to andy. I said, she wants to know if youre going to ask her who has the biggest [ bleep ] in hollywood. And andy was like, can i ask who has the biggest [ bleep ] in hollywood . [ light laughter ] seth based on the previous stories, howard hughes, im gonna guess. [ light laughter ] but she has she and then, i did we did an interview with jess cagle, you know. Seth sure. From People Magazine and entertainment weekly, and he has this, like, online thing, and he was interviewing us. And its called the cagle exercise, which is seth yeah. So, my mom was like, i dont want to do a kegel exercise. I was like, oh, my god. [ light laughter ] i, like, went to my special place. But in the middle of the interview, she suddenly revealed shed had a lesbian fling when she was in high school. I was like, what . Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] and youve just written a book. I know. I was like, you could have put that in the friggin book [ light laughter ] i was like, the subject did come up in the book, you know that would have been a good time to mention it. Seth but she likes andy cohen. She loves andy cohen. Seth i like, by the way, this speaks to because your mother is, to a degree, ageless, not just by her vocabulary, but she, like yes. Seth she has an elegance. Yeah, shes just seth but i like that i heard that she referred to andy, not as a son she never had, as the brother. Yeah, as a brother she never had, which, i was like, thats weird. But all throughout my childhood, actually, my mom would refer to people as her, like, fantasy daughter. Like, she always when i was a kid, she referred to cher as her fantasy daughter. [ light laughter ] like, cher from sonny and cher. So, as a kid, i was like, is cher my sister . [ light laughter ] i dont i dont so now, i met cher, actually, on andys show, and so cher now texted me. She was like, hey, little bro. [ laughter ] because i told her the story. Thats my cher. Seth there you go. Thats a really good cher. [ applause ] its not very good. Seth it is. I will say, i did im not alone. The people in this room who thought, thats a better cher than i thought anderson would have. [ light laughter ] like, hey, you little bro, emoji, emoji. Clap, clap. [ light laughter ] seth now, im jealous. I was always jealous that your mom was gloria vanderbilt. Oh. Seth but now im jealous that youre friends with cher. Well, yes. Well, cher watches a lot of newd, actually. Seth yes, she really does. And, no. She does amazing things, like during hurricane katrina, i did a report about somebody who was feeding people just out of her own pocket, and cher, like, called me up. And she was like and at that point, id never even met her. And shes like, id like to donate a lot of money to that person. [ light laughter ] and, you know, she didnt make a big deal of it or anything. Seth yeah. Yeah. Seth no, she is a classy lady. Thats nice to hear. She used to call up cspan i had never actually saw this, but i heard reports. She used to call up cspan at, like, 3 00 a. M. And, like, for callins to cspan, and she would be like, im calling from malibu. [ light laughter ] and the person would be like the anchor would be like, is this cher . [ light laughter ] seth its amazing. Yeah. Seth by the way, its not like theres a lot of hot calls coming into cspan. Shes calling a lot if theyre bummed out, yeah. [ light laughter ] you, obviously, you work on tv now. Youre a guest on talk shows all the time. But thanks to your mother, you were a you appeared on a talk show at a very young age. I did. I did. I was on the mike douglas show. Seth okay. I dont know if you remember. Seth like, barely, sure. [ scoffs ] what . It was a big that was a good booking. So, i was on the mike douglas show, but i wasnt on with my mom or anything. I was, like, 10 years old at the time. I was on with some friend of my moms, who for some reason had costumes of the munchkins from the original wizard of oz, and needed a kid. So he asked my mom if i would go on the mike douglas show with him wearing one of the costumes of the munchkins. [ light laughter ] so, i got all excited, and told everyone in my school that i was going to be on the mike douglas show. Only when it actually aired, there was some sort of, like, snow emergency or something in the city, and they cut my segment. Not even my segment, the old guys segment, and im just the little kid in the costume. They cut the segment, so everyone in the school thought i was lying about being a munchkin on the mike douglas show. [ audience aws ] seth which is such a terrible lie. Which was such a lame lie. Seth yes. And then, ironically, the next year, in 4th grade, my school did a production of the wizard of oz, and i got cast as the mayor of munchkin land. Seth oh, there you go. So it was helpful. Yes. Seth it was very helpful. [ applause ] by the way, like, you you live the life that i thought every new york kid lived. I did, that is true. Seth and then, your mothers friend comes and puts you on television. Right. Seth yeah. Thats right. Its like, oh, the charlie chaplains coming to the house. Literally, Charlie Chaplin. Seth you met Charlie Chaplin . Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. Yeah. Seth and, so this photo theres is a photo of you and charlie chaplain. How old is you were, what Charlie Chaplin had been in exile for most of his life. Seth yeah. Because he had to flee to the United States or leave the United States. And this was his first return to receive a special academy award, and my mom threw him a party. Seth there you go. And thats little me. I wore costumes my entire childhood. So this is me. [ light laughter ] i dont know, in sort of a pirate outfit. Im not really sure. [ light laughter ] and thats Charlie Chaplin. Now, i was disappointed because he looked nothing like i had been prepped for. Seth yeah. You know. Seth that is not i would not if you had shown me this photo, i would not have guessed charlie chaplain. I know. My mom was like, whos that lady . [ light laughter ] shes just like [ light laughter ] seth thats who you want to know. Right, yeah. Seth yeah. Um, uh but i was totally normal as a kid. My mom took me to studio 54 when i was 11. Seth yeah. You know, not, not seth its a good book. Yeah, its an interesting book. Seth i want to talk about your day job, night job, because right now, obviously, you are dealing with the president. Sure. Seth we all are. But hes calling the media the opposition party. Right. Seth and he talks all the time about how much he hates cnn, and how bad cnn is. Well, he calls cnn fake news. Seth fake news. Right, yeah. Seth but, yet, you get the feeling hes watching a lot of cnn. Oh, no, no. He watches cnn all the time. Seth yeah. I mean, this is not in dispute at all, and because he has texted about people im interviewing while im interviewing them. Seth yeah. He would do that during the campaign. And then, theres, you know, and its on in his office. Certainly, trump tower, it was on a lot, and i know yeah, he watch he watches more cable news than he watches me on cnn probably more than my mom watches me on cnn. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] and even though, look, cable news is very helpful, but is there a place where you can maybe watch too much cable news. Yeah, i mean, you would think a certain point i mean, look, i appreciate, the, you know i mean, if you had a nielsen box, it would be even better, but seth right. You know. But, at a certain point, you would think, like, theres got to be something more important going on at, you know, for the president to be doing than flicking around the shows. But seth but. I dont know. Seth but you covered this last night. There was a New York Times article that talked about how he would watch television in his bathrobe. Yes. Seth then sean spicer disputed that he had a bathrobe. [ light laughter ] this is literally we ended up doing a segment with a reporter from the New York Times. Seth yeah. Miss Maggie Haberman, who cowrote the story, whos a great reporter, and i actually thought it was a fascinating article because i thought it really humanized donald trump was kind of a fascinating seth yeah. You know, it wasnt snarky or anything. Seth absolutely, it was not. And it was just a minor detail, that he watched television sometimes in a bathrobe. Sean spicer, on the plane, on air force one, said he probably doesnt even own a bathrobe, but he certainly doesnt wear a bathrobe. So we had the reporter on whose sourcing was like, i know he wears a bathrobe sometimes in the white house. And then, we found old pictures of him dressed in a bathrobe. [ light laughter ] seth yeah. So, and i had this entire segment coversation with Maggie Haberman about a bathrobe, and the president. And, literally, i had, at some point, i said to her, like, this is surreal that you and i are sitting here, talking about seth do you think thats the jedi construction he has where ultimately, if he can get us talking about whether or not he has a bathrobe, hes winning. No, i dont think he wants us talking about the bathrobe. Seth yeah, yeah, i agree. Because, you know, i dont think the bathrobe is sort of the look hes going for. Seth yeah. And, i mean, i wouldnt want to be photographed or seen in a bathrobe. Seth no. I dont really like bathrobes, either. Seth no one really looks good in bathrobes. No one can pull yeah, well im sure, like, gisele looks great in a bathrobe. [ light laughter ] seth yeah. Right. I mean, if you like that sort of thing. Seth yeah, if you like that. [ laughter and applause ] but, yes. Most guys, i would say, do not look great. Seth yeah, most guys dont look, yeah, great. And then how because you have, up to this point, you know, a white house, a president whos very feels free to antagonize the press, has it changed the way you cover it, or is it pretty much the same with the different subject . Its pretty much the same. Look, i mean, its not as if the Obama White House was the most welcoming to the media. Seth i think people have forgotten that. Yeah, the president stopped talking to me after the bp oil spill. Seth mmhmm. I used to interview him a fair. And then, i spent two months in new orleans just focusing on bp oil spill, and i guess they didnt like it, because i never got an interview with him, i think until right before he left office. So, thats you know, its, i dont want to be buddybuddies with any of these people. Im not just talking about the Trump Administration. I dont go to the white house for social events. Seth yeah. I dont hang out with these people socially. Seth i think its important that the public is in a better place if the the president should hate the press. Not, maybe, to this level, but the press should be irritating to the president. Look, our job is to, you know, ask tough questions seth yeah. Of all sides and to be fair. But, you know, it is, i think, it is inappropriate for the president to be calling, certainly, cnn fake news. Seth sure. Kellyanne conway was on cnn today and said you know, jake tapper asked her, is it fake news . And she says, no, its not. So, particularly on subjects that i mean, that hole came about because of our reporting, cnns reporting but a number of great people, including jake tapper, on the president being briefed by intelligence officials seth sure. About this twopage summary. Anyway, our reporting was 100 correct. They claimed it was all fake, and they were wrong. I mean seth well, were very lucky that people like you and your network are staying honest. So, thank you so much for being here. Great to be here, thanks.
