london. and welcome to the amanpour hour. in the next 60 minutes we will take you around the world to ask the tough questions and tackle the problems and let history be our guide. here is where we re headed this week. no more excuses. the australian billionaire turned eco warrior who says it is do or die if we are to save the planet puts his money where his mouth is. the science is not in any debate by anyone with half a brain, so we must change. then to the violent epicenter of the middle east, a professor how america took its eye off the ball at just the wrong time. i really have no trust in american foreign policy. also ahead, no cell silencer, an exclusive interview with the family of the iranian nobel winner. and then from the archive, grappling with nelson mandela s legacy, a decade after his death. and finally, to the moon. for a story of hope and humanity, with tom hanks. all we really need is enough of us to work together and we can truly change the wor
polls and conversations with the neighbors trying to relate to a set of values and there is a set of values shared by a vast majority of the country why tell the truth. be kind. be loving. be compassionate. welcome other people. the shared values. we have to do that in a way to present a unified story because that s the only way out of this mess. because the longer fragmented and the longer tribalized the more successful the hate and the lies of fox news and the republicans will succeed. maya, she also has a sort of way to unite the conversation around race. she says no child alive today is responsible for slavery but we have a role to play in the next chapter. move it is whole thing to the future and to matthew s point should be something to agree we want to be better.
2020? yeah, by the way, speaking of tribalized, i ve never seen a candidate shake off a bad start as much as elizabeth has, elizabeth warren. the whole thing of pocahontas and all that nonsense and slurring and everything, it seems like even trump s impressed with that. she just shook it off. she went out and gave herself to the public, gave proposal after proposal. out there every day campaigning, showing herself. finally people say i ll make my own judgement about that candidate, mr. trump. it may well take her to the nomination. i don t know. steve, once again, you re the best. hey, thanks, chris. up next, tracing the roots of donald trump s mafia boss-like obsession with loyalty. you re watching hardball. wow!
conscience. you could see she was emotional there. is this going to hurt or help her? yes. i think donald trump carried that state by i think 36 points. what we ve seen i said earlier that they sort of tribalized this issue of kavanaugh. if you look now, 40% of americans think he should be confirmed. 52 say no. it s almost precisely the president s numbers. and the gender gap is there as well. in red states like heidi heitkamp s state, i m sure the opinion is much lopsided in favor of judge kavanaugh. and she understood that when she made that decision. i think republicans may benefit at least in the short run from this in the polling in red states but in the congressional districts in the suburbs which are going to tell the story about who controls the house, i think this is going to be a major negative for them. largely because of how women react there. i m glad you mentioned polling. there s a new poll out,
and he said he may never get to teach law again. and that s entirely possible. that s as a sitting justice in our polarized world, i m a graduate of the harvard law school and i think it is entirely possible those on the left they say we don t want someone we think is a rapist ever teaching again. he talked about how much he has loved coaching girls s basketball. coaching his daughters in basketball. he mentioned he may never coach again. that s a very real possible consequence of the mud slinging and irresponsible behavior of the last two weeks. it may be in this tribalized partisan world that the parents of the other girls say we don t want him as a coach anymore.
