e clinton later on in life when they were both ex-presidents, at felt that oth bushes bill clinton did not have the character that george h.w. did surprised that americans didn't agree with them and barbara bush invited hillary clinton. this is a big point between her and nancy reagan. after the election, barbara bush invites hillary clinton to look at the family quarters. and when i interviewed hillary clinton for this book, she said when she walked in, barbara had not thoroughly processed the fact they lost. and she said i can't believe you are you?e surprised, and hillary clinton said no. mr. bush: it took my grandfather about 18 months and the reason i say that, i was going to school and one of the reasons i applied is to be close to my grandparents and gave me a tench ex-mex. and it took a while. i'm here to tell you as well, he built a great relationship with him after. it speaks to his character that he was able to let it go and serve and continue that service, whether raising $100 million for the tsunami in indonesia and working on katrina. my uncle tapping both of them to come

bush was defeated for re-election, the argument that bill clinton was making, his skills were out of touch. it was george h.w. bush who ended the cold war, you could concentrate on the domestic side of american life. but he, to me, shows something that's very profound about history and that is that i like to think and i think other historians mostly feel the same way that as history goes on you begin to change your views of people. as time goes on and as you get access to letters and diaries and also hindsight. because things don't look the same as they do a sitting president as they would 10, 20, 30, 40 years later. preferably a later period of time. i think it allows more americans who think about this to understand just as susan was saying, it was not at all the cold war would end as it did. the cold war ended in 1991 on terms that harry truman and all these other cold war presidents could only have dreamt of. and one of the central reasons that happened, every cold war president made a contribution, but, you know, i think we were protected by god when george h.w. bush was preside

well it's interesting that you format to full of bill clinton. bill clintnton wants conjecture like the comeback kid. and one of the things that said the really sticks in my mind about *-*- like was he's he's stick ability he's he's- not just the longevity but the number of defeats he overcame. but i think the one with thinking about his legacy it is the- it is that that kind of continuity in a political regime you know the old very often. politicians come and go but there is something to be said for longevity even if. the judgment of chirac's presidencies is pretty makes timing the other will which unitieses missed when he was president between ninety five. and two thousand seven in two thousand and two he's almost elected by default because of the way that the two thousand two presidential election ran. but i think that he's legacy is that he very much carries on the tradition of an independent and can bill clinton a leech this. independent frogs but not one these. that was belligerent lee independent but making sure that people understood that

even though bill clinton won by a margin nationally. there are a lot of tight races all over the country in places where now we see blowouts. in fact, there were more than 1,100 counties across the country that had margins that were within single digits in 1996 paired to 2016 when the national results were very tight. there were only 310 counties where the margins between the two candidates were in the single digit range. that is a 72% drop in the number of competitive counties in just 20 years. of course, this urban rural divide is a familiar theme for david atlow watchers, here's the point, in a country as politically polarized as ours, we are self segregateing where we are self segregateing where we live, making it harder and at verizon, we're building the most powerful 5g experience for america. that's why the nfl chose verizon. because they need the massive capacity of 5g with ultra wideband, so more screaming, streaming, posting fans... can experience 5g all at once. this is happening in 13 stadiums all across the country. now if

i say contested because the one exception is 1992, bill clinton technically lost iowa and new hampshire and won the nomination, but iowa was not a contested state that year. so i think the biden campaign is right. he does not have to win iowa, but if he loses it, he'd better turn things around right away or else the damage really could be too much. that's "hardball" for now. thanks for being with us.

we move on to bill clinton and his team during the impeachment. there was some volatility, a huge drop during the initial investigation but then in 1998, the markets went higher. the economy was doing so well. it was a boom time. so between clinton and nixon, they were in their second term of presidency. so didn't really affect their i guess career as a president going forward. that's the difference with president trump. traders like to overlook political theater. i'll leave it with this. what can add volatility is the lack of bipartisan support towards getting bills done like the infrastructure bill, usmca, which is a trade pact between canada, mexico and the united states and then also keeping drug prices lower. lack of progress there can definitely add risk and volatility to markets. >> shepard: kristina partsinevelos from the biz. thank you. >> thanks. >> shepard: ahead, welcome to saudi arabia for the first time. should you want to do that. the king is putting up a welcome sign for tourists relaxing the rules. but still some things you should

that's why i think bill clinton was improperly impeached. he committed a crime, but it was a low crime, not a high crime. having sex in the oval office and lying about it was not a high crime. a high crime, and let me give you some background on a high crime. there's some terrific history on this. alexander hamilton was the secretary of the treasury. talk about low crimes. a woman comes over to him and seduces him. seduces him. she's a married woman. he's a married man. they have an affair, and then it turns out that it was all an extortion plot. the husband had sent the wife to seduce him. the husband then goes to alexander hamilton and says, "unless you pay me, and a -- "unless you pay me," and a fortune of money in those days was several thousand dollars, "i will expose you. " so hamilton pays him the money, then he comes back and he says, "unless you give me more money, i will say that the money came -- the money you paid came from treasury funds." a light goes off in hamilton's head. he wrote the federalist paper on impeachment, he know

democrat bill clinton won re-election by 8.5 percentage points. now, compare that with 2016's results by county, hillary clinton actually won the popular vote by 2 percentage points, but her blue is harder to spot. concentrated in urban and suburban areas. and here's another way to look at it. by comparing the smallest vote producing counties to the largest. in 1996, bill clinton won six of the ten most populist counties and in 2016, hillary clinton did even better. she won 9 out of 10, all but maricopa county, the home of phoenix, which she lost by just three points. while republicans continue to carry the smallest counties. bob dole of russell, kansas, won 80 of the 100 smallest vote producing counties in 1986, and donald trump upped that to 93 of 100 in 2016. but even though bill clinton won by a pretty wide margin nationally, there were a lot of tight races all over the country in places where now we see blowouts. in fact, there were more than 1100 counties across the country that had margins that were within single digits in 1996. compared to

when bill clinton was impeached, there was a bipartisan impeachment. members of both parties who did it. can this go forward? >> technically there were. >> i would make both a principled argument and a political argument. impeachment is a very difficult thing to do. for theicult, difficult country, which is why it only happened twice before. the problem we have today when twoook at this is between elections, the only manner that exists right now to hold the president accountable is impeachment. because we have now accepted or people have accepted, i would i think is ridiculous, the fact that a president can't be indicted, which has only been created by people who wanted to protect the president. it was written for nexen, rewritten for linton, bush revised it. and then trump's white house has again reiterated it. so if a president can't be indicted, and a president can claim executive privilege on almost just about anything, and a republican party which refuses to put guard rails on this president, the only way outside of november 2020 to hold this pres

but, remember bill clinton, he was impeached. he stayed in office. >> juan: wait, wait. he didn't face another election. >> dana: that's true. we are in uncharted waters. this is right. politics is about taking risks and calculated risks. for a long time nancy pelosi was trying to protect her majority by saying 31 democratic freshman who won in trump districts. how did they win in trump districts they were very moderate people. their constituents were saying no we do not want it. but that has possibly changed. you might see a little bit of change possibly because of media attention. possibly because now nancy pelosi has said we are for this and those freshman are saying actually our constituents want us to hold this president accountable. that is why this spin machine for both sides means so much right now. because no matter how this turns out, it's not going to end in the next day or two. i think i said this in the green room the democrats have basically like cortez they burn the boat so no going back. >> katie: you are not talking about alexandria ocasio-cortez. >> dan

bill clinton did a bus tour. barack obama did the bus tour through the small, little towns. there wasn't a lot of that. there was a super focus on driving out the base. you know, and i think -- there was too much talk about trump and not enough about them, the voter, their economic anxiety. i think trump was very effective, too. i mean, he lied. i mean, he said "i am going to raise taxes on the rich, expand health care, we are going to bring manufacturing back," and one of the most effective things he said in our area was bill clinton passing nafta. and we lost thousands of jobs to nafta. literally companies building another plan another country and shipping the product back to the united states. unions and factories went from 13,000 to almost nothing, the general motors facility used to be 16,000 people. now it is idle. nafta is perceived to have a lot to do with it, and it did have a tremendous impact. so did globalization and automation. when trump started saying that, i thought, man, that is going to hurt. that is a strike. so he had a little inside lane. traditionally,

something i learned from bill clinton is to watch for the people who don't vote for you, too. my other experience is i know how much it matters who is on the inside of the white house. there were probably four moments that stand out at a time where it could have gone the other way for clinton. i don't think he's ever in danger of getting convicted in the u.s. senate, but was definitely danger -- in danger of democrats. we can get wobbly on supporting our own people. the day of the impeachment itself. david was a staff person on the hill this is when bob resigned , as speaker. on that day, he resigned because he was caught having an affair with a lobbyist. we were terrified in the clinton white house that it would be a cascade. it was quick decision-making on the part of the staff and president on how to handle it. politics in prison of -- politics in prison of distraction had to stop now. there are moments like that. i'm not sure that crowd has that. >> i want to ask elise, somebody who has had experience with the national security apparatus, having served in that capacity on

bill clinton and yasser arafat, head of the palestinian authority. this was an attempt, july 2000, you can see by these dates, this was an attempt to do something similar to what carter had had done back in the late '70s, unfortunately for bill clinton. nothing came of this between the palestinian authority and the israelis. again, a moment in which bill clinton was trying to cement his legacy. you know this guy. that's vladimir putin. george w. bush, september 2003, he hosts putin at camp david. obviously any time russia and the united states are together as we saw them in helsinki last year, this was another big moment, we have one more if i'm not mistaken from barack obama, yes. there's been a lot of back and forth over where the g-8 next year will be hosted in america. donald trump floating mar-a-lago. barack obama chose to have it at camp david. it is seen as that place where history can be made. you can understand why someone like donald trump who is focused on deal making and writing his own legacy, would want to put it in a place like this an

i was in the chamber when the senate acquitted bill clinton back in '99. that was a big sort of set piece. you had special robes with gold shoulders that he had designed for the occasion should mcconnell try to sort circuit that and move straight to a vote. he does see he would feel forced to take it up. >> appreciate it thanks very much >>> with impeachment talks ramping up, many expect legislation to hit a stand still in d.c. as democrats conduct their investigation. our next guest has a unique take saying impeachment could help parts of the legislative agenda. you think that this may give both sides an opportunity to demonstrate that they can get things done for the american people, basically. >> yes i think you look at the fact that there's 31 democrats in the house, democratic caucus who won election in districts that president trump won and those folks, the majority makers, if you will, those are the people who allow the democrats to get the majority they are going to be under pressure, increasing pressure if this impeachment proceeding does go throu

president bill clinton's job approval didn't go up, it stayed roughly the same throughout the impeachment. stayed at 60%, 65%. the republicans didn't win as many seats, which wasn't that unusual for them, they won five seats in the 1998 election. that's not unusual when a president has a job approval like that. i don't think there's any down side politically at all for the democrats, even if it's partisan, which it likely will be in the house because almost every republican will stand by the president, so from a principled argument and a political argument, there's no in my view, there's no reason why not to hold this president accountable. >> you want to make it five out of five. you think impeachment will happen? >> i think impeachment will absolutely happen. i don't think that there's any scenario where mitch mcconnell lets it see the light of day as a trial in the senate. i don't think there's any chance of that happening. mitch mcconnell is so vastly more skilled in the senate as a legislative operator than anybody on the democratic side. there is no pelosi in the senate. chuck schum

. >> at the end of the day, they never realized they would question bill clinton. the first black president and i stand with our founding fathers. my story is your story. >> 11:00 p.m. eastern, the father of the student killed in the shooting at marjorie storment high school in parkland, florida offers his thoughts on school safety and expense. in his book, white metal died. >> i was going to find out about everything, wife my daughter was killed. with all these leniency programs have these kids, they had the first kid before school, it was so dangerous. they frisked him and he wasn't allowed in for the backpack. he tried to shoot the school up, he threatened students and never arrested. >> the years that matter most, he reports, challenges and costs of a college education. he's interviewed by him, author and founding director of the center for college community and justice. >> we are still debating about whether a 12th grade education is enough. all the signs of the economy, unlike those who are able to respond to that by saying, let's educate our young people. we

. >> reporter: a white house intern with bill clinton. >> the white house started to receive subpoenas from the independent counsel kenneth star involve all of the records involving monica lewinsky. >> reporter: clinton was questioned about an extramarital affair with lewinsky. he denied it all and reiterated as much days later to reporters. >> i did not have sexual relations with that woman, miss lewinsky. >> reporter: hillary clinton said it's some sort of conspiracy. >> the vast right wing conspiracy has has been conspiring against my husband since the day he was announced president. >> reporter: clinton admits he did have a relationship with lewinsky and withheld information during his deposition. >> while my answers were legally accurate, i did not volunteer information. >> reporter: the information was not so much the affair as the president had lied about it and concerns he asked others to lie about it too though he denied doing so. still independent counsel kenneth starr investigated and later telling the house judiciary committee saying clinton showed deception. >> the evidenc

clinton only for them to be thrown out in the senate and for bill clinton's popularity to skyrocket. but progressives in her party have been agitating for impeachment proceedings against donald trump for quite some time, and those calls have grown, nuala, since members returned from the summer recess at the beginning of this week. they've no doubt been hearing calls from their constituents who favour impeachment proceedings against donald trump, so 30 more have put their names to impeachment proceedings. currently 135 democrats out of a total of 235 in the house of representatives favour impeachment proceedings against donald trump, but for that to succeed, 218 votes are needed, so they're still quite clearly well clear of that. an employee in japan who wishes to remain anonymous is taking his company to court for "pata—hara" or paternity harassment. he says he's been sidelined at work since taking paternity leave to look after his two sons. the practice should be quite common injapan — the law there guarantees paternity leave. but, only 6% of men take it. in a similar but comple

she felt it could backfire, look at what happened to bill clinton, of course. he is one of only two us presidents who have been on the receiving end of impeachment proceedings and after his impeachment was overturned by the senate his popularity skyrocketed and there is a fear on the democrats was part that trump cosmic supporters could use this to make him even more popular, going into the next year. —— trump‘s supporters. basically, putting their name behind impeachment proceedings, saying there was some sort of turn in opinion amongst the democrats on this one, that this was beyond the pale. and also something that they could explain, the democratic leadership, to the american people, unlike the recent russia probe stop david willis for us there. let‘s get some of the day‘s other news. officials in pakistani—administered kashmir say at least 22 people have been killed and hundreds injured in an earthquake. security forces have reached the areas worst affected, in and around mirpur, to help with rescue and relief efforts. people in cities as far a

the last us president who faced the prospect of impeachment proceedings was bill clinton only he was a democrat and those who are now demanding that trump be impeached was thinking a very different to that. prostitution was never intended to be do you think. it's to up a bit at the intimate. with the never found a truth for you is the power given to dolls the representatives and the house alone to begin an official investigation. as dictated by the council we are here today because the republicans in the house are paralyzed with hatred i rise to want to oppose these unfair motions which call for the removal of the president of the united states from office. i'm announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is a pawn for the american people don't think that they have made a mistake by electing bill clinton and we and congress had better be very careful before we upset their decision. a little we have a president who's violated his oath of office mr congress's job to pursue the facts and to hold

it was okay for bill clinton, frankly. >> good for bill clinton. >> so i think -- neil: again, the republicans took control of the white house, you know. so you could play it -- but i know what you're saying. >> i think that has more to do with what bill clinton did and also the natural pendulum in politics. one of the interesting dynamics to me about biden is you are either going to have that pendulum swing really far to an elizabeth warren or it's going to stay the other way with trump, or there's this guy who is a little closer to the middle, left of center but closer to the middle and it's going to be fascinating to see where the american people want to go with that. i think as a republican, i would much rather be running against elizabeth warren than joe biden. then that's part of what's going on right now. neil: james trusty is a former justice department official so we won't bother him with tacky political questions. we will bother him with the legal questions that are coming up here. is the president in legal hot water here? what do you think? >> well, not in terms of any sort of crimi

there are parallels, one is that 1998 when the republican house impeached democratic bill clinton, they did not have the public behind them. the numbers were like this. they didn't have a majority support. in fact, clinton's numbers much higher than trumps are today. they were in the'60s and then 73 i think. that's the difference. trump has never had that kind of support. they didn't have the support. i was in touch with newt gingrich tonight. he thinks that -- he says nancy pelosi risks having the same thing happen to her that happened to him which is they end up with an unpopular impeachment and backlashing on the party and could help the president. >> how confident do you perceive democrats to be? you saw pelosi make that move today. we have seen a number of democrats in the last two days from marginal districts, democrats who have to worry any given election about losing to a republican. we have seen a number of them come out in favor of an impeachment inquiry. is there a confidence level that numbers are going to change? >> i don't know if there is confidence that the numbers will

and i work for bill clinton but we had a lot of internal balance battles in the party. i remember when bill clinton was running and there were a whole range of unions that were supporting him that had no good reason to support him given where his dad was on nafta and other issues. they just said, we've got to win. we can't be out of power. we've got to win, the stakes are to Ãtoo high. what happens to the coalition, what happens to fox news? this election and another election in which the current contours play out. when they were divided down the middle between socially liberal and the key tea party evangelical it wasn't easy but they will have a battle over what the party stood for. it's much harder when you driven those orders out and how you get them back. you had parole, pro voters i think ultimately came back to the republicans so maybe in the process there is something that brings them back. the issue is, how do they become relevant in the party when you have working families, you still have a party that is fighting contraception. you can look at the budget the f

unlike what happened with bill clinton, the personal attorneys and the white house are kind of working in conjunction. have you two different factions' the fallguy is donna brazi-- >> let's talk about that. you covered the clinton administration. the response there, were they walled off the response legally and message wise from the operations of the white house? you've got stephanie grissom who is responding to questions about the impeachment. she is the press secretary. but also the communications -- no briefing -- but she is the press secretary and the communications director, and still the press secretary for the first lady. that a lot of work when you're doing the official work, the east wing, west wing, and impeachment. >> i remember those days 20 some odd years ago. there were briefings every day and the white house press secretary stood there for at least 45 minutes fielding questions, answering questions on the side of the white house and from the attorneys. i remember after that, had joe lockhart. you saw people around the white house and you heard about the war room. right n

but bill clinton and actually barack obama, people forget about barack obama. he was the more moderate candidate in the 2008 primary compared to john edwards and hillary clinton. so, that's the lesson we have got to remind ourselves. i mean, obviously there is a lot of rage for the current president. if we want to beat him, we have to capture independence. the way to catch independents is by running on things that a majority of the american people support. it's actually pretty simple. what most people care about is, you know, their kid's education, their job, their healthcare, their pay, opportunities for their kids. those basic issues that effect every american. we have to get back to that as a party. >> tucker: yeah. i mean, what you are saying -- and you could substitute republican for democrat. that's the substance -- that's the core of politics right there. think about. >> average american care about their job and pay and care about their kid's public education and care about their healthcare and want to know their next generation the kids and grand kids w

hadn't censure bill clinton and move on to the business in other words that was people that love bill clinton who said cut it out don't do this don't impeach him just move on to the business you have to wonder with 94 percent of the republican party behind trump are there going to be people remember nancy pelosi has 7 to 15 members democrat members who won in trump districts that are wondering how they'll win again i mean remember these are crass he said off the air these are crass politicians we wish they were better they're politicians they're going to be looking for their next election so is there a conservative move on dot org about to to form i don't know move on or is very effective you know the timing of this all is what is what. you know there's a lot you can impeach trump for but the timing of it is a big deal will the results of this impeachment or wall of this process even make it to the 2020 alexion and ultimately won't this be up to the voters at the end of the day well i think i make a little different point that i think what this is doing is damaging the president's cha
