that what we heard 40 years ago for i m old reagan was very similar to what we heard from president biden today. yeah, absolutely. and i think that the president continually meets a moment on these big speech that he gives. i ve traveled with them on, doesn t these foreign trips and you always meet the moment on these speeches. he totally encapsulated the moment of the democracy is bigger than just us. and i think that that was conveyed. i do think that it s interesting we re seeing that we re, you know, we re still saying the same thing 40 years later but if history repeats itself, so here we we re really made it clear that he believes this is president biden, that the us has a direct obligation to help ukraine right now when it s clear that if former president trump is moving away from that much more isolation is policy. yeah. so this is an interesting dichotomy here, wolfe, i do agree with president biden that we do have an obligation to help ukraine again, i mentioned democra
republicans who talked about what s gone wrong. i ve not heard an understanding of what s occurred. because ofs globalization and e diversity of america, the old reagan, thatcher model of the right has m collapsed. workers need more protections in a world where they re constantly changing jobs. in a diverse society you can t speak to those white, christian morals. you have to talk about a different way to unite people that come from different races andfe ethnicities. the republican model has collapsed. the only thing that replaced it is donald trump and the maga movement.ma it s terrifying for the country and something we have to worry about going forward. really well put and important and reaching beyond our domestic clashes. jake, always good to see you. i want to let you know, it s a
ideal for donald trump as he would like to think. chris christie made the point to me last night that if some other candidate wins in either new hampshire or iowa, it s game over for trump. it s a game-changer. you know, the emperor has no clothes. do you think that s true? i think governor christie is actually setting the bar too high for the trump opponents. i think even if you get close because he does have such a dominant lead. and christie is moving up in new hampshire. the polling in new hampshire shows chris christie moving up, ron desantis fading. it seems to me, desantis only needs three new advisers, the father, the son, and the holy ghost. he ain t got a prayer. watch chris christie. i ve been impressed by him on his town hall. i ve been impressed by tim scott, who is very, very conservative, but he just doesn t hate me, and that s sort of appealing. it s old reagan. he might hate you, paul. he s just not saying it. he s too polite. he just doesn t know you yet.
biden. i m not protecting him every minute. i m saying candidly he has been deserving of a higher approval rate certainly in the time he has been the president thus far. it s not in defense of him. i would say that about trump in the course of his one term. something else is going on here. here s a fun thought experiment. go to the live chat feature of my web site this hour, and give me a name. anyone on the planet, putting aside the requirements necessary to run for the u.s. presidency, give me a name, who could win 49 of 50 states the way that rold reagan did. nobody. please go to the web site for an additional purpose, and that is to answer this week s poll question, what best complains president biden s low job approval rating. i m giving you as choices, his record, his age, the economy, polarization, or something i can t think of. up ahead, on a well manicured long island street, one house stood out, it s a mess
party anymore? i mean, i went back and it tells you what my weekend was, watched old reagan speeches from cpac a few years ago and you could tell what the party was about, legislatively and politically. now you ve got a former president lying, you ve got the proud boys with congressmen, standing up and saying what we heard. is this good for republicans? i m not sure it has a material impact on the future of the party from an electoral perspective. i mean, i think it s a place where, you know, prospective presidential candidates roll out messages, test messages. obviously what the activists in that room want to hear is different than what you would run, probably, in a general election campaign in 2024 so i don t know that it has a material impact on our ability to win back the white house. i do think this. if we re going to run a campaign in 2024 based on the idea that the vaccine, you know, we were suckered into it, which, by the way, was, i think, donald trump s biggest triumph, d
