00:00:18♪♪
00:00:24>> David: GOOD WEDNESDAY MORNING.
00:00:27I'M DAVID COMMON. LIVE IN DETROIT.
00:00:30DONALD TRUMP AND HIS REPUBLICANS
00:00:32FACE A STUNNING DEFEAT IN THE
00:00:36MIDTERMS. TRUMP'S TRADE WAR ON CANADA, ONE
00:00:38MUCH THE BIG REASONS. MICHIGAN ON THE FRONT LINE OF
00:00:42THAT FIGHT. THE REPUBLICANS LOST.
00:00:46HISTORY MAKING. TRUMP IS WEAKER THAN HE HAS BEEN
00:00:49SINCE HIS RETURN TO THE WHITE HOUSE AND THAT COULD CREATE AN
00:00:52OPENING FOR OTTAWA TO MAKE A TRADE DEAL.
00:00:54>> WE HAVE FIVE WORDS FOR THE
00:00:58AMERICAN PEOPLE. RELIEF IS ON THE WAY.
00:01:01>> WILLING TO WORK WITH DEMOCRATS, BUT IN THE SAME
00:01:04BREATH IS THREATENING TO VETO
00:01:08THE PARTY'S INITIATIVES.
00:01:11DEMOCRATS MAKE GAINS IN SOME THE
00:01:13COUNTRY'S DEEPEST STRONGHOLDS, INCLUDING TEXAS.
00:01:16>> IN THIS STATE, IN THIS
00:01:19COUNTRY, POWER BELONGS TO THE
00:01:23PEOPLE. [Cheering]
00:01:25>> David: G.O.P. 32-YEAR WINNING
00:01:28STREAK IN TEXAS NOW OVER.
00:01:32THE DEMOCRATS FLIPPING NOT ONLY
00:01:34THE SENATE, BUT THE GOVERNOR'S SEAT.
00:01:37>> IS NOW THE TIME FOR THE FEDS
00:01:39TO STRIKE A DEAL ON TRADE?
00:01:42>> THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO TAKE TIME.
00:01:44I THINK THIS IS NOT A MOMENT TO
00:01:48MOVE QUICKLY. >> David: DONALD TRUMP IS ALSO WOUNDED.
00:01:52DOES THAT MAKE IT HARDER TO
00:01:55NEGOTIATE AN AGREEMENT?
00:01:58>> David: IT'S HARD TO OVERESTIMATE THE SIZE AND
00:02:02SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS BLUE WAVE. VOTERS ARE MAKING DONALD TRUMP
00:02:05PAY A HISTORIC PRICE.
00:02:08THEY BLAME HIS HIGHER COST OF
00:02:11LIVING WITH HIS TARIFF FIGHT
00:02:13WITH CANADA AND THE WORLD.
00:02:16VOTERS ARE ANGRY ABOUT PAYING
00:02:21MORE FOR FOOD AND FOR GAS.
00:02:23THEY ARE PUNISHING TRUMP FOR NOT
00:02:26DOING WHAT HE PROMISED.
00:02:30THE DEMOCRATS GAIN CONTROL OF
00:02:34CONGRESS COME JANUARY. THE DEMOCRATS ARE ON TRACK FOR A
00:02:38BIGGER HOUSE MAJORITY THAN EXPECTED. IT IS THE SENATE WHERE THE
00:02:42DEMOCRATS MAKING A LANDMARK BREAKTHROUGH. THEY HAVE WON 7 SEATS.
00:02:45FLIPPING THEM FROM THE REPUBLICANS.
00:02:47ALL OF THEM TOSS-UPS AND
00:02:50DEMOCRATS COULD STILL WIN MORE,
00:02:52WHICH WOULD BUILD MORE ON THE
00:02:55SENATE MAJORITY. KEY BATTLEGROUND IS RIGHT HERE IN MICHIGAN.
00:02:59HIS TARIFFS COSTING THE DETROIT
00:03:01BIG THREE AUTOMAKERS BILLIONS OF
00:03:03DOLLARS AND LOTS OF FEARS ABOUT JOBS.
00:03:06THE DEMOCRAT, ABDUL EL-SAYED HAS
00:03:09WON THE STATE AFTER HE MADE HIGH
00:03:11COSTS FROM TARIFFS ON CANADA A
00:03:13BIG THEME OF HIS CAMPAIGN.
00:03:16THEY WERE CENTRAL TO HIS WINNING
00:03:17MESSAGE ON AFFORDABILITY.
00:03:21>> WE DID IT!
00:03:24[Cheering] >> THEY MIGHT HAVE BEEN POINTING
00:03:28TO MY NAME AND MY FAITH.
00:03:31BUT MY NAME AND MY FAITH AREN'T
00:03:34THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GAS.
00:03:36NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD GROCERIES.
00:03:39NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T SEE A DOCTOR.
00:03:43WE MADE A MOVEMENT.
00:03:43GOUGH FOR THE PEOPLE, BY THE
00:03:47PEOPLE. IT WAS A BATTLE BETWEEN THE
00:03:50MONEY AND THE MANY.
00:03:52THE MANY CAN REALLY WIN
00:03:55>> EL-SAYED'S
00:04:01>> EL-SAYED WILL GO TO
00:04:03WASHINGTON AS A PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT.
00:04:06HIS WIN INSTANTLY BOOST HISS NATIONAL PROFILE AS A VOICE FOR
00:04:10THE PARTY. >> DONALD TRUMP, THE FIRST PRESIDENT TO LOSE HIS
00:04:13CONGRESSIONAL MAJORITY IN 20 YEARS.
00:04:15HE IS OUT WITH A BLAME GAME THIS
00:04:19MORNING.
00:04:19THE DAYS HE CLAIMED WITHOUT
00:04:24EVIDENCE THE DEMOCRATS WERE
00:04:28CHEATING. THIS MORNING, TRUMP TELLS FOX
00:04:32NEWS HE WILL ACCEPT THE RESULTS.
00:04:38>> U.S. President Donald Trump: SURE, I ACCEPT THEM.
00:04:40I WASN'T ON THE BALLOT.
00:04:43I'M A LITTLE BIT SURPRISED.
00:04:46>> TRUMP DID URGE HIS SUPPORTERS
00:04:48TO TREAT IT AS IF HE WAS ON THE BALLOT.
00:04:51THIS IS WHEN HE LAST SAW HIM,
00:04:54HIS CLOSING POOL AT THE
00:04:57REFLECTIVE POOL.
00:04:59>> IT IS NOT CLEAR TRUMP IS
00:05:02REGISTERING WHAT VOTERS ARE
00:05:06ANGRY ABOUT.
00:05:10THE FALL HAS BEEN ACCELERATING WITH ENERGY PRICES SPIKING
00:05:13BECAUSE OF THAT U.S. WAR ON IRAN.
00:05:16>> LET US TURN TO MARK CARCASOLE
00:05:18WHO IS IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU.
00:05:22MARK, THIS BREAKTHROUGH HAPPENING IN PLACES WHERE TRUMP
00:05:25JUST TWO YEARS AGO WON BY DOUBLE DIGITS.
00:05:28THAT MAKES IT SO EXTRAORDINARY.
00:05:31HUGE DIVIDE HERE.
00:05:33LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT THE
00:05:36DEMOCRATS NOW DO WITH THIS. >> Reporter: WELL, AS YOU
00:05:39MENTIONED, DAVID, THEY HAVE FULL
00:05:41CONTROL OF THE SENATE, BUT EXACTLY HOW MUCH THEY CAN
00:05:45ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISH WITH THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN.
00:05:48WHILE THEY DO CONTROL BOTH THE
00:05:51HOUSE AND THE SENATE, WHICH IS BEYOND WHAT THE POLLS HAD
00:05:55INITIALLY PREDICTED, THAT FULL
00:05:58CONTROL GOES ONLY SO FAR. THIS CONTROL ALLOWS THE
00:06:02DEMOCRATS TOSS BLOCK ANY LEGISLATION PUT FORWARD BY THE REPUBLICANS.
00:06:05THEY CAN PUT A STALL TACTIC ON
00:06:08THE AGENDA OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND OF PRESIDENT DONALD
00:06:11TRUMP FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS. AND THEY DO NOW HAVE LEGISLATIVE POWER.
00:06:14BUT YOU ALSO TALKED ABOUT HOW
00:06:17THE PRESIDENT KNOWS THAT HE HAS VETO POWER AND SO ANY
00:06:20LEGISLATION THAT THE DEMOCRATS
00:06:22BRING FORWARD HAS TO BE APPROVED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP.
00:06:25IT'S NOT VERY LIKELY THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
00:06:27THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME
00:06:31BIPARTISANSHIP, SOME COOPERATION IN CONGRESS.
00:06:33WHO KNOWS HOW MUCH OF THAT IS IN SUPPLY.
00:06:36THEY CAN ALSO PUT THE PRESIDENT
00:06:39UNDER INVESTIGATION, SUBJECT HIM
00:06:41TO CONGRESSIONAL OVERSIGHT. AND CALIFORNIA REPRESENTATIVE
00:06:45ROBERT GARCIA WHO IS EXPECTED TO
00:06:47BECOME THE CHAIR OF THE HOUSE
00:06:52OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE ALREADY
00:06:54HINTED THAT WILL BE THE CASE.
00:07:00>> WE DO KNOW THAT THE DEMOCRATS CAN AND LIKELY WILL INVESTIGATE
00:07:04MEMBERS OF THE TRUMP FAMILY.
00:07:05THE BUSINESS DEALINGS AND
00:07:08POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL TIES OF
00:07:11DONALD TRUMP JUNIOR, ERIC TRUMP, THE SON-IN-LAW OF PRESIDENT
00:07:14TRUMP, JARED KUSHNER.
00:07:18THAT IS SOMETHING THEY CAN DO. AS FAR AS WHAT THEY CAN ACTUALLY
00:07:21BRING FORWARD TO ACTUALLY MAKE
00:07:24CHANGE ON A LEGISLATIVE LEVEL,
00:07:27THAT'S ALL REALLY SUBJECT TO THE
00:07:28WHIMS OF THE PRESIDENT STILL.
00:07:32HAKIM JEFFREYS SAID TO BECOME
00:07:34THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.
00:07:37THE FIRST BLACK PERSON TO DO SO.
00:07:41>> AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN
00:07:44AND MADE CLEAR.
00:07:45THEY'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THE EXTREMISM.
00:07:49ENOUGH OF THE CORRUPTION.
00:07:51THEY WANT A CONGRESS THAT'S
00:07:53GOING TO DELIVER FOR THE
00:07:56AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THAT IS
00:07:59EXACTLY WHAT HOUSE DEMOCRATS
00:08:01WILL DO AS SOON AS WE GET IN TO
00:08:04OFFICE IN JANUARY. [Cheering]
00:08:07>> NOW, I WANT TO NOTE SOMETHING
00:08:10THAT JEFFREYS SAID. GET INTO OFFICE IN JANUARY.
00:08:13THE FULL CONTROL FOR THE
00:08:17DEMOCRATS. THE NEW CONGRESS DOES NOT TAKE
00:08:20EFFECT UNTIL JANUARY. THAT LEAVES THE DONALD TRUMP
00:08:24REPUBLICANS TWO MONTHS TO RETAIN FULL CONTROL.
00:08:28WHAT THEY DO WITH THAT WILL BE
00:08:30INTERESTING TO WATCH. I KNOW MANY AMERICANS WILL BE.
00:08:34>> LET'S TALK ABOUT TRUMP.
00:08:35HE IS NOW THE DEFINITION OF A LAME DUCK PRESIDENT.
00:08:39HE CAN'T RUN AGAIN. BUT HE HAS TWO MORE YEARS WITH
00:08:42THE DEMOCRATS CONTROLLING CONGRESS.
00:08:44I SUPPOSE ON THAT QUESTION OF
00:08:46LAME DUCK, DOES HE SEE HIMSELF THAT WAY?
00:08:49>> Reporter: IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT WAY.
00:08:52IN THE BRIEF INTERVIEWS THAT HE DID ON AMERICAN MEDIA CHANNELS
00:08:56LAST NIGHT. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH HE STILL
00:08:59FEELS HE IS GOING TO PLAY A
00:09:01RELEVANT, IMPORTANT PART IN CONGRESS. HE WILL FOR THE MOST PART.
00:09:05THAT VETO POWER THAT HE HOLDS, HOLDS A LOT OF POWER.
00:09:09LET'S KEEP IN MIND, HE STILL
00:09:11DOES HAVE FULL CONTROL OF
00:09:13CONGRESS FOR THE NEXT TWO MONTHS.
00:09:16THE PRESIDENT ALSO RETAINS
00:09:18EXECUTIVE CONTROL. HE CAN STILL PUT FORWARD
00:09:21EXECUTIVE ORDERS. IN THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF THIS
00:09:24SECOND TERM, HE HAS USED EXECUTIVE ORDERS TO SKIRT AROUND
00:09:27CONGRESS SEVERAL TIMES.
00:09:29THE VARIOUS TARIFFS HE HAS BUT
00:09:34FORWARD.
00:09:34TRADE WARS HE LAUNCHED ALL CAME
00:09:40FROM EXECUTIVE ORDER.
00:09:42THAT IS THE POWER HE STILL
00:09:46RETAINS. THE PRESIDENT SAYS HE WILL
00:09:50ACCEPT THE RESULT AND WORK WITH
00:09:52DEMOCRATS OVER THE NEXT TWO
00:09:55YEARS, BUT IN HIS OWN WAY. >> IT'S THE POWER OF VETO.
00:09:58ONE OF THE STRONGER POWERS THAT
00:10:01A PRESIDENT HAS. THEY WILL SEND THINGS OVER THAT
00:10:04ARE INSANE AND I WILL VETO THEM.
00:10:12I HAVE A LOT OF FRIENDS THAT ARE
00:10:17DEMOCRATS, BELIEVE IT OR NOT. >> IF THE REPUBLICANS WERE TO
00:10:21LOSE CONTROL OF CONGRESS, HE
00:10:24WOULD BECOME Mr. VETO.
00:10:27WHILE RAGING RESULTS ON SOCIAL
00:10:30MEDIA, HE ALSO POSTED THIS PHOTO
00:10:32OF A RED MAGA-STYLE HAT.
00:10:47>> David: MARK, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IT HAS BEEN GENERATIONS SINCE
00:10:50ANYONE CAN SAY TEXAS IS SENDING
00:10:52A DEMOCRAT TO THE SENATE.
00:10:57JAMES TALRICO IS THE FIRST SINCE
00:11:08THE '80s.
00:11:09>> TONIGHT, THE WORLD HEARS YOU.
00:11:13[Cheering] >> David: HE DEFEATED REPUBLICAN
00:11:17PAXTON IN WHAT IS BEING CALLED
00:11:20THE MOST EXPENSIVE SENATE RACE
00:11:24IN HISTORY.
00:11:25SEISMIC POLITICAL SHIFT FOR THE
00:11:28SECOND MOST POPULAR STATE.
00:11:32UPENDING THREE DECADES OF REPUBLICAN CONTROL.
00:11:35TEXAS ALSO ELECTED A DEMOCRATIC
00:11:41GOVERNOR.
00:11:42LET'S GO TO STEVE FUTTERMAN.
00:11:46>> Reporter: DONALD TRUMP WAS
00:11:47THE MAIN ISSUE IN THE SENATE
00:11:53CAMPAIGN.
00:11:55DEMOCRATS HAD NOT WON ANY
00:11:57STATE-WIDE OFFICE SINCE 1994. THAT'S AMAZING.
00:12:00MORE THAN 30 YEARS.
00:12:04NOW THEY HAVE ALMOST SWEPT ALL
00:12:06OF THE STATE-WIDE OFFICES.
00:12:08YOU MENTIONED TALIRICO.
00:12:28>> WE SHOT THE WORLD TONIGHT
00:12:35WITH A TEXAS CHIP ON OUR
00:12:39SHOULDER. WE SHOWED THAT ANYTHING IS
00:12:43POSSIBLE. [Cheering]
00:12:44IT NEVER BOTHERED ME THAT THEY
00:12:48DOUBTED ME.
00:12:51IT BOTHERED ME THAT THEY DOUBTED
00:12:55US. >> Reporter: WE ALL THOUGHT THIS WAS GOING TO BE A CLOSE RACE.
00:12:58IT TURNED OUT TO BE AN EASY WIN.
00:13:00MORE THAN 90% OF THE VOTE HAS BEEN COUNTED.
00:13:03HE HAS 55%.
00:13:20TALARICO CELEBRATED LAST NIGHT AS WELL.
00:13:24>> WE WERE THE UNDER DOGS IN THIS RACE.
00:13:26WE WENT UP AGAINST NEARLY 40
00:13:29YEARS OF DOUBT AND DISIL
00:13:34DISILLUSIONMENT. WE WENT UP AGAINST $300 MILLION.
00:13:36MORE THAN ANY SENATE CAMPAIGN IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
00:13:39WE WENT UP AGAINST ALL OF THE
00:13:41NEGATIVE ADS, SMEAR CAMPAIGNS,
00:13:43FOREIGN BOTS AND AI DEEPFAKES
00:13:46THAT MONEY CAN BUY.
00:13:48THOSE ATTACKS WERE THE FINAL
00:13:51HOWLS OF A DYING ESTABLISHMENT. >> Reporter: AND YOU KNOW, IT'S
00:13:55NOT LIKE I SAID, NOT JUST GOVERNOR.
00:13:58NOT JUST SENATE. THEY ALSO WON THE DEMOCRATS.
00:14:02THEY WON THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR'S OFFICE.
00:14:05RAILROAD COMMISSIONER, WHICH IS
00:14:07A BIG OFFICE IN TEXAS.
00:14:15WHAT DID THEY DO AFTERWARDS?
00:14:16THEY WENT TO A TEXAS HOTSPOT.
00:14:21NOT SURE WHAT WAS ON THE MENU.
00:14:24I THINK THEY HAD A NICE
00:14:26GATHERING AT WHAT A BURGER LAST NIGHT.
00:14:38RAILWAY COMMISSIONER, THAT WAS
00:14:40NOT ON MY BINGO CARD FOR THE DAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
00:14:43>>> WE ARE LOOKING AT THE RESULTS TODAY.
00:14:47WE ALSO WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY MEAN FOR CANADA.
00:14:50TRUMP REMAINS PRESIDENT FOR TWO MORE YEARS.
00:14:54ROSEMARY BARTON LOOKING AT WHETHER THE REBUKE FROM AMERICAN
00:14:57VOTERS MAKES IT EASIER OR HARDER
00:14:59FOR CANADA TO STRIKE A DEAL AND
00:15:01WHETHER THE FEDS SHOULD EVEN BE
00:15:04IN A RUSH TO DO SO.
00:15:05>> JAMES MOORE, THE FORMER CONSERVATIVE CABINET MINISTER
00:15:09POSTED ON X, DON'T MAKE A DEAL
00:15:13WITH A REPUDIATED AND DEPARTING
00:15:16PRESIDENT THAT AMERICANS AND
00:15:21ABOUT WHY YOU WOULD EVEN BOTHER
00:15:23STRIKING A DEAL WITH THE PRESIDENT THAT HAS ANY TARIFFS
00:15:27AT ALL?
00:15:27WHAT WOULD BE THE ADVANTAGE IN
00:15:33THIS MOMENT?
00:15:39I THINK IT DOES RAISE AN IMPORTANT POINT ABOUT THE TIME
00:15:43LINES AROUND THIS OR THE PRESSURE AROUND TRYING TO REACH
00:15:46A DEAL. OBVIOUSLY, IT'S GOING TO BE VERY
00:15:49DIFFICULT FOR THE PRESIDENT TO
00:15:50GO AHEAD AND PUT THIS 50%
00:15:53TARIFFS ON AUTOS IN JANUARY.
00:15:56IN THIS WORLD.
00:15:58WHEN HE HAS JUST ALL OF THESE THINGS HAVE CLEARLY BEEN
00:16:02REJECTED BY AMERICANS. THERE'S LOTS OF QUESTIONS.
00:16:04BUT I THINK IT DRAMATICALLY
00:16:08CHANGES THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT'S THINKING AND STRATEGY GOING FORWARD IN TERMS
00:16:17BARTON. WE ARE LIVE HERE IN MICHIGAN. I HAVE DAVID WITH ME. GOOD MORNING.
00:16:21>> GOOD MORNING. >> David: IS THE DIRECTOR OF THE
00:16:24CENTRE FOR CIVIL ENGAGEMENT AT
00:16:27OAKLAND UNIVERSITY RIGHT HERE IN MICHIGAN.
00:16:30A TOP LEVEL, BLUE WAVE,
00:16:33REPUDIATION OF TRUMP. HOW DO YOU READ WHAT THAT HE IS RESULTS SAY?
00:16:37>> THEY SAY AMERICANS ARE UNSATISFIED WITH THE DIRECTION
00:16:40OF THE COUNTRY. THEY HAVE BEEN EITHER FRUSTRATED
00:16:43OR DISAPPOINTED OR ANGERED BY
00:16:46TRUMP'S LAST TWO YEARS AS
00:16:48PRESIDENT AND THEY ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
00:16:51>> David: THE POLLS SUGGESTED
00:16:54THERE WAS GOING TO A BLUE WAVE.
00:16:58THE SIZE OF IT IS ACTUALLY BIGGER THAN SOME OF THE POLLS SUGGESTED.
00:17:03>> IT IS. NOT ONLY IN MAGNITUDE, BUT
00:17:06REALLY, ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IF WE GO BACK TWO YEARS TO
00:17:10TRUMP'S PRESIDENTIAL WIN, HE WON
00:17:13EVERY SWING STATE. BY SMALL MARGINS, BUT HE WON
00:17:17ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
00:17:18IT'S THE 180° FROM THAT
00:17:22YESTERDAY WHERE DEMOCRATS WON
00:17:24EVERY SEAT THAT WAS IN PLAY OR
00:17:27THAT WAS COMPETITIVE AND
00:17:31EVERYTHING FELL RIGHT FOR THE
00:17:34DEMOCRATS YESTERDAY.
00:17:35>> David: DONALD TRUMP PORTRAYS
00:17:38HIMSELF AS A DEAL MAKER. HE IS OUT SAYING OVERNIGHT, I
00:17:41CAN SEE A PLACE TO WORK WITH THE DEMOCRATS.
00:17:44YOU LOOK AT THE LAST WOULD YEARS, THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE
00:17:48A LOT OF COOPERATION THERE.
00:17:50WHAT DO THE NEXT TWO YEARS LOOK LIKE?
00:17:52>> THAT'S THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION.
00:17:55WE HAVE A NUMBER OF DYNAMICS TO UNPACK.
00:17:59WITH REGARD TO TRUMP AS A DEAL MAKER, HE LIKES TO TALK THAT
00:18:03WAY. HIS ACTIONS SAY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I AM GOING TO DIG IN.
00:18:06I AM GOING TO DOUBLE DOWN.
00:18:20MOMENT. TRADE WAR CONTINUES. THAT DOES NOT CHANGE FROM YESTERDAY.
00:18:24THE TARIFFS ARE STILL THERE. TRUMP REMAINS PRESIDENT FOR TWO
00:18:27MORE YEARS. HE HAS GONE DEEP ON TARIFFS AND
00:18:31SAYS THEY ARE HERE TO STAY.
00:18:33DO YOU SEE DEMOCRATIC -- WHETHER
00:18:36THEY ARE HOUSE REPRESENTATIVES OR SENATORS TRYING TO DO
00:18:39ANYTHING ABOUT THAT.
00:18:41>> THEY WILL TRY VERY HARD.
00:18:45ABSOLUTELY. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE INTERSECTIONS.
00:18:49IN JANUARY, WE WILL HAVE A DEMOCRATICALLY CONTROLLED
00:18:53CONGRESS, BUT A PRESIDENT STILL IN THE WHITE HOUSE THAT ISN'T
00:18:55GOING TO SEE EYE TO EYE WITH THEM ON MUCH.
00:18:59IF ANYTHING. AND THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE.
00:19:03TARIFFS ARE HIS SIGNATURE
00:19:06ECONOMIC POLICY.
00:19:09IS TRUMP SOMEBODY WHO IS GOING
00:19:12TO JUST GIVE IN ON SOMETHING
00:19:14THAT IS SO IMPORTANT TO HIM? I DOUBT IT.
00:19:17>> David: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT TRUMP'S CABINET.
00:19:20GOING FORWARD, ANYONE WILL HAVE
00:19:23TO BE APPROVED BY THE SENATE.
00:19:30AFTER RESULTS LIKE THIS, YOU SEE
00:19:33SOMEBODY GO OVERBOARD. >> YOU DO.
00:19:35THE PERSON AT THE TOP OF THE
00:19:38LIST IS PETE HEGSETH. HE CALLS HIMSELF SECRETARY OF WAR.
00:19:41THAT'S THE FORMAL NAME OF THAT
00:19:45RIGHT NOW. PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS SECRETARY OF DEFENCE.
00:19:48HE IS ONE OF TRUMP'S GUYS.
00:19:50HE IS CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO --
00:19:56SOMEBODY LIKE HEGSETH. EVEN THOUGH DEMOCRATS HAVE THEIR
00:20:00SIGHTS SET ON HIM.
00:20:28YOUR NAME. DAVID.
00:20:32EASY PEASY.
00:20:33>>> THERE ARE 68 SEATS IN THE
00:20:37HOUSE THAT STILL NEED TO BE CALLED.
00:20:39WE ARE EXPLORING TWO THEMES THIS MORNING.
00:20:42WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR DONALD TRUMP?
00:20:44WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR CANADA?
00:20:46THAT IS WHAT WE WILL BE EXPLORING THROUGHOUT THE MORNING HERE ON CBC MORNING LIVE.
00:20:50♪♪ >> Where
00:22:44>> David: THE BLUE WAVE WAS REAL
00:22:46AND THEN SOME.
00:22:49DEMOCRATS EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS
00:22:52IN THE MIDTERMS.
00:22:56OUR ATTENTION IN CANADA NOW
00:22:58TURNED TO TRADE TALKS.
00:23:00A FORMER CANADIAN AMBASSADOR TO
00:23:02THE U.S. SAYS IT MIGHT BE BEST
00:23:05FOR TRUMP TO LEAVE OFFICE.
00:23:07>> THIS IS NOT A MOMENT TO MOVE QUICKLY.
00:23:10THIS IS A TIME TO OBSERVE, ONE, WHAT THE NEW CONGRESS IS SAYING.
00:23:13WHAT THEY ARE DOING. ARE THEY TABLING LEGISLATION
00:23:17WITHIN 100 HOURS? WHAT DOES THAT SAY?
00:23:20WHAT IS THIS TARIFF LEGISLATION?
00:23:25THERE WILL BE DEVILS IN THE DETAILS. TO UNDERSTAND THAT.
00:23:28WILL THERE BE INVESTIGATIONS ON TARIFFS?
00:23:31THAT'S AN INTERESTING IDEA.
00:23:32SEE HOW THAT PERCOLATES FOR A WHILE.
00:23:35THAT BEING SAID, IF THEY ARE HAVING CONSTRUCTIVE
00:23:38CONVERSATIONS THAT ARE HEADING TOWARD SOME KIND OF ARRANGEMENT
00:23:42THAT WILL WORK FOR CANADA, WE
00:23:44WOULDN'T WANT THEM TO STOP THAT.
00:23:47>> DON'T MESS WITH IT.
00:23:50>> LOOK, IN DIPLOMACY AS A NEGOTIATION, YOU NEVER STOP
00:23:54TALKING. IF YOU CAN BE TALKING, YOU ARE DOING BETTER THAN NOT TALKING.
00:23:58IF THERE OPEN LINES OF
00:24:05>> LET'S ZERO IN ON WHAT
00:24:10DEMOCRATIC WINS MEAN FOR CANADA. WE WILL BRING IN LISA RAITT.
00:24:14GOOD MORNING TO YOU. I WILL DIVE RIGHT INTO IT.
00:24:17YOUR TAKE ON THAT THIS MEANS FOR CANADA.
00:24:21>> WHAT THIS MEANS FOR CANADA?
00:24:26WE HAVE TO REALIZE THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE UNITED STATES.
00:24:30VOTERS HAVE TAKEN A STANCE. EVEN THOUGH EVERYBODY THOUGHT
00:24:33THE UNITED STATES WAS SO POLARIZED, LAST NIGHT WAS THE
00:24:37NIGHT OF THE SWING VOTER. THEY DIDN'T LIKE THE WAR THAT
00:24:40WAS HAPPENING IN ANOTHER PART OF THE WORLD.
00:24:42THEY WANT OUT OF THAT. THEY ARE ALSO WORRIED ABOUT
00:24:46IMMIGRATION AND HOW THAT POWER
00:24:48WAS BEING EXERTED AND THEY DON'T LIKE CORRUPTION.
00:24:52THE NEWLY ELECTED DEMOCRATIC
00:24:55FORCE THAT IS IN PLACE IN JANUARY IN THE UNITED STATES HAS
00:24:57TO WEIGH ALL OF THESE THINGS AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IS OUR BATH FORWARD.
00:25:01WHAT ARE WE GOING TO FOCUS ON BECAUSE IT'S ONLY TWO YEARS
00:25:04UNTIL THE NEXT ELECTION AND THAT IS A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND
00:25:07THEY WANT TO MAINTAIN SEATS AND
00:25:09THE TRUST THEY RECEIVED FROM THESE SWING VOTERS.
00:25:13CANADA IS A FOOTNOTE IN ALL OF THIS.
00:25:15CANADA IS HOW DO YOU FIT IN TO
00:25:17OUR BROADER AGENDA OF MAKING SURE AMERICANS ARE HAPPY.
00:25:21OKAY, AFFORDABILITY.
00:25:22OBVIOUSLY THE TARIFFS ARE HAVING
00:25:27AN IMPACT ON AFFORDABILITY.
00:25:30MARK CARNEY AND THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER THE
00:25:33DEMOCRATS ARE REALLY INTERESTED
00:25:35IN HAVING TARIFFS IN PLACE IN AN
00:25:39ASYMMETRICAL WAY. OR ARE THEY GOING TO GIVE CANADA
00:25:42TARIFF-FREE ACCESS. THAT'S THE ONLY THING TO FIGURE OUT IN THE COMING DAYS.
00:25:46IF THE SIGNAL IS WE ARE STILL GOING TO HAVE TARIFFS, THEN THEY
00:25:49HAVE TO MAKE A DEAL IN A WAY IN
00:25:52WHICH IT MINIMIZES THE AMOUNT OF
00:25:55PAIN THAT CURRENT COMPANIES ARE EXPERIENCING FOR THE GREATER
00:25:58GOOD OF WHAT THE DEAL WILL LOOK LIKE GOING FORWARD.
00:26:01>> David: I TAKE YOUR POINT. I WOULD NOT WANT TO SUGGEST THAT
00:26:04CANADA OR CANADIANS ARE GOING TO
00:26:06BE TOP OF MIND FOR ANY
00:26:10LEGISLATOR ENTERING CONGRESS. BE IT THE DEMOCRATS WHO ARE
00:26:13TAKING CONTROL OR THE
00:26:16REPUBLICANS. NONETHELESS, THEY DO HAVE SOME POWER THERE.
00:26:20AFFORDABILITY IN TARIFFS HAVE
00:26:21BEEN JOINED OVER THE COURSE OF
00:26:25THIS CAMPAIGN. DOES THAT CONTINUE NOW THAT THE
00:26:28CAMPAIGN IS OVER? >> YES, I THINK IT DOES.
00:26:32IN THE STATES THAT ARE ACTUALLY
00:26:35FEELING IT.
00:26:37>> MAINE WAS ABOUT TARIFFS AND
00:26:40BEING TIRED OF SUSAN COLLINS.
00:26:43THERE ARE A WHOLE BUNCH OF THINGS THAT GO INTO TARIFFS
00:26:46BEING PART OF THE CALCULATION.
00:26:49ALL I WOULD SAY HERE IS ON MY SIDE OF THE BORDER, HERE IN
00:26:53CANADA, WHAT I WOULD FOCUS ON IS MAKING SURE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT
00:26:57KIND OF DEAL CANADA WILL ACCEPT AT THE END OF THE DAY. WHAT IS THE LANDING ZONE.
00:27:00WHERE DO WE LAND IF THERE ARE
00:27:04GOING TO BE ASYMMETRICAL TARIFFS.
00:27:08PUSH THE DEMOCRATS TO SEE IF WE
00:27:10CAN GET TARIFF-FREE ACCESS.
00:27:13JUST TO SAY WE ARE GOING TO WAIT
00:27:16THEM OUT, I DON'T KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THAT IS A STRATEGY.
00:27:18YOU REALLY HAVE TO TAKE A PULSE
00:27:21OF THE DEMOCRATS TO SEE WHETHER
00:27:23OR NOT THEY ARE GOING TO BE AN
00:27:25ENTITY WE CAN WORK WITH IN FREE
00:27:32TRADE. >> David: I TAKE YOUR POINT.
00:27:34JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE DEMOCRATS AND THEY ARE DIFFERENT FROM
00:27:37TRUMP, IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY WILL TAKE A DIFFERENT APPROACH.
00:27:41ABDUL EL-SAYED, THE SOON TO BE
00:27:44U.S. SENATOR FROM MICHIGAN SAYS
00:27:46HE SUPPORTS TARIFFS, HE JUST DOESN'T LIKE THE WAY THESE ONES
00:27:50HAVE BEEN APPLIED.
00:27:51>> I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT MAGAISM.
00:27:54THIS SEEMED TO BE A REPUDIATION
00:27:57OF TRUMP'S POLITICAL APPROACH.
00:27:59IS IT THE BEGINNING OR THE END
00:28:02IN YOUR MIND FOR MAGA? IS A SHIFT UNDERWAY?
00:28:06>> INTERESTING QUESTION.
00:28:08IF MAGA IS TRUMP, THEN YOU KNOW
00:28:11THERE ARE TWO YEARS LEFT OF
00:28:15TRUMP. Mr. TRUMP WENT ON FOX NEWS LAST
00:28:18NIGHT AND HE WAS ASKED SEVERAL
00:28:21TIMES, ARE YOU GOING TO ACCEPT
00:28:23THE ELECTION RESULTS.
00:28:27HE SAID YEAH, I AM GOING TO
00:28:30ACCEPT THE RESULTS.
00:28:32IF MAGA DIES WITH Mr. TRUMP'S
00:28:35ADMINISTRATION, DISCONTINUING OR BEING DONE IN TWO YEARS, THEM
00:28:38THE REPUBLICAN PARTY RIGHT NOW HAS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENS
00:28:42IN THIS ELECTION HERE THIS TIME.
00:28:44AND SERIOUSLY LOOK AT THEIR CANDIDATES.
00:28:47WHAT MAGA IS AT THE END OF THE
00:28:51DAY, IS DONALD TRUMP PICKING CANDIDATES AROUND THE COUNTRY
00:28:54THAT DID NOT APPEAL TO HIS
00:28:58VOTER.
00:29:01TEXAS IS FASCINATING. ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING BECAUSE
00:29:04THEY HAVE ELECTED THEMSELVES A
00:29:06SENATOR WHO BY ANY MEANS OR STRETCH IS A POPULUS.
00:29:10NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. BUT THE FLAVOUR OF DEMOCRAT THIS TIME.
00:29:13IS THAT WHAT AMERICANS ARE GOING TO LINE UP BEHIND?
00:29:16WHOEVER IS ELECTED LAST NIGHT, THEY SHOULD REMEMBER ONE THING
00:29:20AND ONE THING ONLY. VOTERS ARE FICKLE.
00:29:23LOOK AT WHAT THEY HANDED DONALD TRUMP TWO YEARS AGO AND LOOK AT
00:29:26WHAT THEY DID LAST NIGHT.
00:29:28IT SHOWS THEY WILL MOVE BEYOND
00:29:31THEIR PARTISAN HOMES IN ORDER TO EFFECT CHANGE.
00:29:35THERE HAS TO BE WINS PUT UP BY
00:29:38THE ECONOMY. THEY CAN'T WAIT AROUND AND THEY
00:29:41CAN'T PLAY GAMES. INTERESTING TO SEE THE LAWYER-UP
00:29:45COMMENT LAST NIGHT. THAT'S GOING TO BE PART OF WHAT
00:29:48THE NEW ADMINISTRATION WILL WANT TO DO.
00:29:50NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. AS Mr. TRUMP SAID LAST NIGHT, HE
00:29:54HAS NO PLANS TO CHANGE HIS CABINET.
00:29:56>> David: THE THEME HAS BEEN SET.
00:29:59DEFIANCE IS VERY CLEAR.
00:30:03LISA RAITT VERY MUCH APPRECIATE
00:30:09BEYOND. >> MY PLEASURE. THANK YOU.
00:30:10>> WE CELEBRATE A VICTORY FOR ANYONE.
00:30:13LEFT RIGHT OR CENTRE. STRUGGLING WITH THE SKYROCKETED
00:30:16COST OF LIVING FROM GAS TO GROCERIES TO HOUSING.
00:30:19ANYONE WHO IS SICK OF THE
00:30:21TARIFFS, THE ENDLESS WAR AND THE TAX BREAKS.
00:30:25ANYONE WHO IS FED UP WITH THE
00:30:28MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT IN OUR HISTORY WHO HAS FAILED IN HIS
00:30:32WAY OF GOVERNING.
00:30:34>> DEMOCRAT CHRIS WINNING NEW
00:30:37HAMPSHIRE SENATE RACE. KEEPING THE STATE BLUE.
00:30:41HE IS NOW THE OPENLY GAY MAN ELECTED TO THE SENATE.
00:30:44WE HAVE MORE ON THE DEMOCRAT'S
00:30:49VICTORIES THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. THIS IS CBC MORNING VE. >> Where
00:33:39>> MICHIGANERS WE WANT OUR TAXES
00:33:42SPENT HERE FOR HEALTHCARE HERE.
00:33:44AND FOR INFRASTRUCTURE HERE.
00:33:47WE DON'T WANT OUR MONEY TO BE
00:33:51SENT TO GENOCIDE.
00:33:54ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT. I KNOW YOU HAVE A HOUSE IN
00:33:58FLORIDA AND TWO YACHTS.
00:34:00YOU CHOSE HATE.
00:34:02AND MICHIGAN CHOSE HOPE.
00:34:05>> David: THAT IS ABDUL EL-SAYED. ONE OF THE BIG WINNERS FOR A
00:34:09NIGHT OF BIG WINS.
00:34:10HE TOOK MICHIGAN'S OPEN SENATE SEAT.
00:34:14EL-SAYED THE FIRST MUSLIM PERSON
00:34:16ELECTED TO THE U.S. SENATE.
00:34:18A BREAKTHROUGH FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
00:34:22MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS BLAMING
00:34:24TRUMP FOR THE LOSS IN WHAT WAS A TIGHT RACE.
00:34:27>> I'M NOT HAPPY WITH PRESIDENT
00:34:30TRUMP SAYING IF HE WAS ON THE
00:34:32BALLOT WE WOULD HAVE WON BIG.
00:34:35THAT'S JUST HIS EGO. HE HAS CAUSED A LOT OF THIS.
00:34:38>> I THINK PEOPLE ARE
00:34:42SHORTSIGHTEDLY FOCUSING ON THINGS LIKE GAS PRICES AND OUR
00:34:45INVOLVEMENT IN THE WAR RATHER THAN LOOKING AT THE LONG-TERM
00:34:49EFFECTS OF THEIR VOTES THAT THEY ARE CASTING.
00:34:52>> WHEN IT COMES TO CONSERVATIVE
00:34:54WIN IN YOUTH, UNDER THE AGE OF
00:34:5730. TURNOUT WILL BE LOW. I THINK THAT'S KIND OF THE
00:35:01LESSON HERE TO TAKE, REALLY. >> David: NOW, WHEN THIS
00:35:05CONGRESS TAKES ITS POSITION IN JANUARY. THERE ARE GOING TO BE A LOT OF
00:35:09FRICTION POINTS BETWEEN THEM AND THE WHITE HOUSE.
00:35:11ONE OF THOSE THINGS, RUSSIA.
00:35:14THE WHITE HOUSE SEES THAT COUNTRY AS A FRIEND.
00:35:17THE DEMOCRATS DO NOT.
00:35:19THEN THERE'S UKRAINE.
00:35:21IT'S ALMOST AN ADVERSARY FOR DONALD TRUMP.
00:35:24DEMOCRATS SEE IT THE OTHER WAY.
00:35:26THEN OF COURSE IRAN.
00:35:29WE TALK ABOUT THE -- HEAR TALK
00:35:34ABOUT THE WAR. CRYSTAL GOOMANSINGH JOINING US FROM THE MIDDLE EAST.
00:35:38CRYSTAL, THERE HAD BEEN THE SUGGESTION WITH THIS UNPOPULAR
00:35:40WAR LEADING INTO THE MIDTERMS
00:35:42THAT ATTACKS SORT OF WENT AWAY
00:35:45FOR THE AMERICANS. HOW LIKELY IS IT WITH THE
00:35:48MIDTERMS NOW OVER THAT THEY WILL BE BACK?
00:35:51>> Crystal: IT IS REALLY UNCLEAR, DAVID.
00:35:54THE BIGGEST FACTOR IS THAT U.S.
00:35:57PRESIDENT, DONALD TRUMP IS IN AN UNPREDICTABLE LEADER.
00:36:00HE HAS SAID PREVIOUSLY HE IS IN
00:36:01NO RUSH TO RESTART THE BOMBING
00:36:04CAMPAIGN ON IRAN. HE DID NOT DENY OR DIDN'T SAY
00:36:08THAT CAMPAIGN WOULDN'T START THIS WEEK.
00:36:10THERE IS A LOT OF FOCUS AROUND
00:36:13THE MIDDLE EAST ABOUT WHAT COULD HAPPEN IN THE COMING DAYS.
00:36:16WE HAVE HEARD FROM IRAN'S
00:36:19SUPREME LEADER. IN A STATEMENT, HE SAID THE
00:36:23AGGRESSION TOWARD IRAN WILL NOT
00:36:25CHANGE WITH ANY PARTISAN SHIFTS, NOR WILL IT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF
00:36:29ANY CONCESSIONS TOWARD THE U.S.
00:36:31HE IS WARNING IN A STATEMENT
00:36:33THAT ANY ATTACKS ON IRAN WILL BE
00:36:37MET WITH MUCH GREATER RESPONSE
00:36:39SPECIFICALLY TALKING ABOUT ALL OF THE AMERICAN BASES THROUGHOUT
00:36:43THE MIDDLE EAST. NOW, THAT IS SOMETHING WE
00:36:46EXPECTED TO HEAR FROM THE IRANIAN SUPREME LEADER.
00:36:50WE SHOULD NOTE WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIM IN PERSON OR HEARD FROM HIM
00:36:54AS FAR AS HIS VOICE. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN A STATEMENT.
00:36:57WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN FROM HIM
00:36:59SINCE HE WAS PUT INTO THE POSITION AFTER HIS FATHER, THE
00:37:03SUPREME LEADER WAS KILLED IN
00:37:06STRIKES BY IRAN, ON IRAN BY
00:37:10ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES. MEANWHILE, WE HAVE THE U.S.
00:37:12PRESIDENT TALKING ABOUT THE WAR
00:37:14SAYING YES, IT DOES IMPACT THE
00:37:17RESULTS OF THOSE MIDTERMS, BUT
00:37:19IN AN INTERVIEW NOT ONLY ON FOX
00:37:21NEWS, BUT WITH THE "WALL STREET
00:37:23JOURNAL," HE SAYS HE DOESN'T
00:37:25REGRET IT THAT IT WAS NECESSARY.
00:37:27BUT HE ACKNOWLEDGED FOR EXAMPLE
00:37:31THE PRICE OF FUEL HAD A RIPPLE
00:37:36EFFECT. >> U.S. President, Donald Trump:
00:37:38AT THE SAME TIME, PEOPLE
00:37:40UNDERSTOOD THE IMPORTANCE I DID WITH IRAN.
00:37:43YOU CAN'T LET THE NUMBER
00:37:46ONE-STATE SPONSOR OF TERROR HAVE
00:37:51A NUCLEAR WEAPON.
00:37:54>> Crystal: WE DON'T KNOW IF THE
00:37:57UNITED STATES WILL TRY TO ATTACK
00:38:00THOSE REMAINING SITES THAT THE PRESIDENT SAID STILL EXISTS.
00:38:04WE DO KNOW IF THERE WAS SOME
00:38:06SORT OF COOPERATION ON ATTACKS
00:38:10BETWEEN U.S. AND ISRAEL ON IRAN,
00:38:13IT COULD HELP PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU.
00:38:15HE IS FIGHTING FOR POLITICAL
00:38:17SURVIVAL SINCE HE AND HIS
00:38:20COALITION DIDN'T WIN A CLEAR
00:38:22PATH TOWARD FORMING A COALITION.
00:38:25IF THERE WAS A SECURITY
00:38:27EMERGENCY INVOLVING ISRAEL, IT
00:38:29COULD FORCE HIS MAIN OPPONENT TO
00:38:32FORM A UNITY GOVERNMENT WITH HIM
00:38:34AND THAT WOULD PROLONG HIS POSITION OF POWER.
00:38:37SO A LOT OF QUESTIONS, A LOT OF
00:38:42BIG UNANSWERED QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW.
00:38:56WATCHING BECAUSE THEY COULD START TODAY.
00:39:00CRYSTAL GOOMANSINGH, THANK YOU. >> TONIGHT I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR
00:39:03ALL OF THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN MADE TO FEEL AFRAID.
00:39:06THERE'S A NEW SHERIFF IN >> [Cheering]
00:39:10>> THAT IS CALIFORNIA'S FIRST
00:39:12EVER LATINO GOVERNOR. DEMOCRAT.
00:39:15HE CELEBRATED THE HISTORIC
00:39:17RESULT AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE FOR IMMIGRANT FAMILIES.
00:39:21WE HAVE MORE MIDTERM RESULTS
00:39:23LIVE FROM OUR POSITION HERE IN
00:39:26MICHIGAN WITH THE KEY QUESTION, WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN FOR CANADA?
00:39:30WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR THE TRADE FIGHT?
00:39:32WE ARE EXPLORING THAT ALL AHEAD HERE ON CBC MORNING LIVE. ♪♪
00:42:44>> David: WE ARE LIVE IN MICHIGAN THIS MORNING.
00:42:47THAT IS DOWNTOWN DETROIT. IN BEHIND ME.
00:42:49THIS STATE, ONE OF THE FOCAL
00:42:53POINTS OF A SWEEPING DEMOCRATIC
00:42:55VICTORY ACROSS THE U.S.
00:42:57THEY TOOK CONTROL OF CONGRESS. JUST HOW BAD IS IT IN THE
00:43:01HISTORY BOOKS? MIKE CRAWLEY LOOKING AT THAT.
00:43:04>> Reporter: I WANT TO PUT SOME
00:43:07HISTORICAL CONTEXT ON JUST HOW
00:43:10RARE THIS MIDTERM RESULT IS IN THE U.S. DONALD TRUMP HAS BECOME ONLY THE
00:43:14THIRD U.S. PRESIDENT TO PRESIDE
00:43:16OVER HIS PARTY LOSING BOTH THE
00:43:19PARTY AND THE SENATE AT A MIDTERM ELECTION.
00:43:22THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED BEFORE
00:43:25THIS WAS 2006.
00:43:29THAT WAS WHEN THE REPUBLICAN
00:43:32PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH LOST BOTH THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE AT
00:43:36THE MIDTERM WHEN HE WAS IN THE
00:43:37MIDDLE OF PURSUING AN INCREDIBLY
00:43:43UNPOPULAR VOTE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. THAT WAS AGAINST IRAQ.
00:43:45BEFORE THAT WAS BILL CLINTON IN 1994.
00:43:49CLINTON'S DEMOCRATS LOST BOTH
00:43:51THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE IN THAT
00:43:54MIDTERM IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF
00:43:58CLINTON'S APPROACH AT REFORMING
00:44:00THE HEALTH SYSTEM HERE IN THE
00:44:04U.S. WAS UNPOPULAR
00:44:05>> BEFORE THAT, HARRY S. TRUMAN
00:44:10DEFINED THE PREVIOUS TIME WHEN A
00:44:21>> David: DONALD TRUMP IS THE DEFINITION OF A LAME DUCK PRESIDENT.
00:44:24HE HAS TWO YEARS LEFT IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
00:44:26MAJOR CHALLENGES GETTING ANY
00:44:28LEGISLATION THROUGH THE NEW CONGRESS. WHAT DOES HE DO?
00:44:32>> HIS FOCUS, PRESIDENTS ALWAYS
00:44:35TRY TO FOCUS ON FOREIGN POLICY.
00:44:38I THINK THE DEMOCRATIC ROUTE AND THE POWER OF THEIR CONTROL OF
00:44:41THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE AND THE
00:44:45CONTROVERSY OVER HIS FOREIGN POLICY AND THE IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY.
00:44:49AND I AM THINKING FIRST THE WAR
00:44:51IN IRAN AND GAS PRICES.
00:44:53AND SO THERE WILL BE SOME SORT
00:44:56OF RESOLUTION ON CAPITOL HILL
00:44:59WITH REGARD TO SO-CALLED WAR
00:45:02POWERS AND THE DEMAND OF THE NEW
00:45:05CONGRESS TO TAKE CONTROL OR SOME
00:45:08DEGREE OF RESPONSIBILITY OVER A
00:45:10POLICY THAT HAS, YOU KNOW, BEEN
00:45:13DEEPLY DAMAGING TO THE UNITED STATES IN TERMS OF ITS GLOBAL
00:45:17AUTHORITY AND IN TERMS OF THE DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
00:45:21THAT TAKES US TO TARIFFS.
00:45:25TRADITIONALLY, CONGRESS, WELL
00:45:27UNDER THE CONSTITUTION, CONGRESS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR TAXES AND
00:45:30TARIFFS ARE JUST TAXES AND --
00:45:37TRUMP WITH HIS GLOBAL TARIFF
00:45:39POLICY WHICH APPLIED FUNDAMENTALLY TO CANADA.
00:45:43THE CHALLENGE ON THAT SIDE WITH REGARD TO CONGRESS, THE
00:45:46DEMOCRATS ARE A BIG TENT.
00:45:48THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ELECTED.
00:45:51SORT OF CENTRIST FROM THE CENTRE OF THE COUNTRY.
00:45:54DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST AS WELL.
00:45:56THE DEMOCRATS ARE MORE
00:46:00PROTECTIONISTS THAN THE REPUBLICANS.
00:46:02YOU MAY GET SOME DEGREE OF
00:46:04PROTECTIONIST SENTIMENT.
00:46:07EVEN IF DEEP CONCERN OVER THE
00:46:11KIND OF PROTECTIONISM. THE SECOND LEVEL TARIFFS AS
00:46:14OPPOSED TO IRAN IS GOING TO BE A
00:46:22WEEKS TO COME. >> LET'S LOOK AT A HISTORIC WIN
00:46:25HAPPENING IN GEORGIA AS THE DEMOCRAT BECOMES THE FIRST BLACK
00:46:29WOMAN ELECTED GOVERNOR OF ANY
00:46:32U.S. STATE.
00:46:33>> GEORGIA, THIS LAND IS FOR ALL
00:46:38OF US. [Cheering] >> David: HER ELECTION WILL END
00:46:41MORE THAN TWO DECADES OF REPUBLICAN CONTROL OF THE
00:46:44GOVERNOR'S OFFICE. WE ARE LOOKING AT HER VICTORY.
00:46:48WE ARE LOOKING AT VICTORIES OF
00:46:50DEMOCRATS RIGHT ACROSS THE U.S. AHEAD HERE ON CBC MORNING LIVE.
00:46:53♪♪
00:49:51>> David: IOWA ONE OF 7 SENATE
00:49:54SEATS THAT FLIPPED TO THE DEMOCRATS.
00:49:56HE WON A 55% VICTORY.
00:49:59WILL BECOME THE FIRST DEMOCRAT TO REPRESENT THE STATE IN THE
00:50:03SENATE SINCE 2015.
00:50:04OUR WILLY LOWRY IS IN IOWA.
00:50:08>> Reporter: IN MANY WAYS IOWA
00:50:12REPRESENTS A MICROCOSM OF WHAT
00:50:17WE SAW IN THE UNITED STATES.
00:50:20THE REPUBLICANS HELD THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION AND BOTH
00:50:23SENATE SEATS. NOW, DEMOCRATS HOLD THE
00:50:27GOVERNOR'S MANSION AND ONE SENATE SEAT AND THREE OF THE
00:50:30FOUR CONGRESSIONAL SEATS.
00:50:32JOSH, THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE
00:50:35FOR SENATOR ENDED UP DEFEATING
00:50:38ASHLEY HINTON, THE REPUBLICAN
00:50:42CANDIDATE BY 5% POINTS.
00:50:45THE DEMOCRAT RUNNING FOR
00:50:48GOVERNOR WON VERY COMFORTABLY
00:50:51OVER REPUBLICAN ZACH LANE.
00:50:53BOTH RAN ON A MORE MODERATE
00:50:57MESSAGE PLEDGING TO WORK WITH REPUBLICANS GOING FORWARD.
00:51:00ONE THING THAT BECAME PRETTY CLEAR AS WE SPOKE TO PEOPLE HERE
00:51:04IN IOWA IS THAT THEY VOTED BASED
00:51:06ON ISSUES AROUND THE ECONOMY AND AFFORDABILITY.
00:51:09THIS IS A FARMING STATE.
00:51:11THE PRICE OF DIESEL, WHICH IS
00:51:14HOVERING AROUND $6 A GALLON IS
00:51:17PROBLEMATIC FOR THEM.
00:51:20AS IS THE U.S. WAR WITH IRAN
00:51:23WHICH WAS INSTIGATED BY
00:51:36>> David: THERE'S ALSO BEEN A
00:51:38MAJOR UPSET OF REPUBLICANS IN
00:51:41SOUTH CAROLINA.
00:51:44>> WE HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA SENT A CLEAR MESSAGE THAT THIS
00:51:48SENATE SEAT DOES NOT BELONG TO
00:51:50ONE FAMILY, ONE PARTY, OR TO
00:51:55WASHINGTON D.C. [Cheering] >> David: SHE IS THE FIRST WOMAN
00:51:58TO BE ELECTED IN STATE'S HISTORY.
00:52:02WAS UP AGAINST THE INCUMBENT
00:52:05SENATOR WHO WAS APPOINTED
00:52:07FOLLOWING THE DEATH OF HER
00:52:10BROTHER LYNDSAY GRAHAM.
00:52:16>>> WE ARE LIVE HERE IN MICHIGAN.
00:52:18I AM GOING TO BRING IN DAVID
00:52:20BACK IN WITH US. POLITICAL SCIENCE PROFESSOR.
00:52:24LET'S TALK ABOUT IOWA, SOUTH CAROLINA, TEXAS.
00:52:27THERE IS A LONG LIST OF VERY RED STATES NOW BLUE.
00:52:31>> THERE ARE SOME STATES LIKE
00:52:34TEXAS THAT HAD SHOWN SOME SIGNS
00:52:36IN PREVIOUS ELECTION CYCLES AT
00:52:39LEAST TURNING PURPLE, BUT NOT
00:52:42NECESSARILY FLIPPING TO BLUE. THE RESULTS IN IOWA AND SOUTH
00:52:45CAROLINA ARE MORE ATTENTION GETTING BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT
00:52:49-- YOU CITED THE STRING OF VICTORIES THAT DEMOCRATS HAD
00:52:53BEEN FIGHTING AGAINST ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE.
00:52:55THOSE REALLY ARE RUBY RED STATES.
00:52:59TO SEE A CANDIDATE WIN, EVEN BY
00:53:01A VERY SMALL MARGIN, LIKE THE
00:53:03PERSON DID IN IOWA IS SOMETHING
00:53:06THAT WE HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION TO.
00:53:09>> David: ONE RACE ENDED YESTERDAY AND ANOTHER ONE BEGINS TODAY.
00:53:13I WAS AT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY --
00:53:16THE PARTY'S PARTY.
00:53:17ABDUL EL-SAYED'S EVENT LAST
00:53:21NIGHT.
00:53:22PETE BOOT RIDGE WAS WORKING THAT
00:53:29ROOM.
00:53:29>> IT'S GOING TO BE PETAL TO THE
00:53:33METAL. WE ARE GOING TO SEE THE USUAL SUSPECTS.
00:53:36WE ARE GOING TO SEE KAMALA HARRIS.
00:53:39WE ARE GOING TO SEE CORTEZ.
00:53:42WE ARE GOING TO SEE GAVIN NEWSOM.
00:53:45>> I THINK THE RESULTS FROM
00:53:48YESTERDAY, GIVEN HOW WIDESPREAD THE DEMOCRATIC SUCCESSES WERE
00:53:52AND GIVEN SOME OF THE CANDIDATES
00:53:55WHO WON LIKE ABDUL EL-SAYED IS GOING TO GIVE THE PROGRESSIVE
00:53:58WING OF THE PARTY A LOT MORE JUICE.
00:54:01AND GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO SAY HEY, LOOK, WE NEED TO BE
00:54:05PART OF THIS CONVERSATION ABOUT WHO WE NOMINATE MOVING FORWARD.
00:54:08>> LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT A BIT.
00:54:12THE DEMOCRATS CAME OUT THAT WIN
00:54:16TRIUMPHANT. THEY SHOULD. THIS IS A BIG WIN FOR THEM.
00:54:18BUT THEIR PARTY BRAND IS STILL COMPROMISED.
00:54:21THEY ARE NOT POPULAR AS A PARTY.
00:54:24THEY ARE JUST LESS UNPOPULAR
00:54:26THAN THE PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW.
00:54:31I WONDER IF THERE NEEDS TO BE
00:54:35SOME SOUL-SEARCHING.
00:54:41>> THE CHANCES OF IT HAPPENING
00:54:44ARE BETWEEN SLIM AND NONE.
00:54:47I THINK THEY ARE GOING TO BE
00:54:49CAUGHT UP IN THE EUPHORIA OF A
00:54:51BIG NIGHT. AS THEY SHOULD.
00:54:54THERE ARE ISSUES WITH DEMOCRATS.
00:55:00SOME OF THEIR CANDIDATES. I THINK WE ARE GOING TO SEE A
00:55:04BIT OF OVERREACH FROM DEMOCRATS
00:55:06IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS.
00:55:08WHICH COULD US BACK INTO THE
00:55:20WE HAVE SEEN THAT IN CANADA AND IN THE UNITED STATES.
00:55:23>> LAST THOUGHTS, JUST IN A
00:55:25MINUTE OR SO WE HAVE LEFT THIS
00:55:28MORNING. CANADA?
00:55:30HOW DO TARIFFS FACTOR IN HERE?
00:55:33>> TARIFFS WERE A BIG FACTOR HERE IN MICHIGAN.
00:55:36WE ARE LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW AT
00:55:38THE GORDIE HOWE BRIDGE AND THE AMBASSADOR BRIDGE.
00:55:41WE IN MICHIGAN ARE CONFRONTED
00:55:46WITH THE TARIFFS ISSUE.
00:55:49IT'S IN OUR FACE. >> David: AND CANADA IS THERE.
00:55:53>> WE CAN LITERALLY SEE IT.
00:55:58OUR RESIDENTS HERE IN MICHIGAN
00:56:01ARE INTERTWINED IN TRADE BETWEEN OUR TWO NATIONS.
00:56:19CONGRESS. THAT HAS BIG IMPLICATIONS, ABSOLUTELY. FOR THE UNITED STATES.
00:56:23HAS IMPLICATIONS FOR CANADA, TOO.
00:56:26WHAT DOES IT DO TO THE POTENTIAL OF A TRADE DEAL.
00:56:28WE WILL BE EXPLORING ALL OF THAT
00:56:32FOR YOU HERE ON CBC MORNING LIVE. ♪♪
01:00:26[ ♪♪ ] >> David: GOOD WEDNESDAY MORNING. I'M DAVID COMMON LIVE IN DETROIT. DONALD TRUMP AND HIS REPUBLICANS
01:00:30HAVE BEEN HIT WITH A STUNNING DEFEAT LOSING CONGRESS TO THE DEMOCRATS.
01:00:33HIS TRADE WAR ON CANADA ONE OF THE BIG REASONS.
01:00:37MICHIGAN ON THE FRONT-LINE OF THAT FIGHT.
01:00:40THE REPUBLICANS' LOSS IS HISTORY-MAKING.
01:00:44IT'S NOT OVER.
01:00:50THAT COULD OPEN THE DOOR FOR OTTAWA TO MAKE A TRADE DEAL.
01:00:54>> THERE IS NOW A GENERATIONAL
01:00:59REMAKE OF THE SENATE MAP THAT IS
01:01:01GOING TO CHANGE AMERICA NOW AND ON TO THE FUTURE.
01:01:05>> David: DEMOCRATS HAVE NEW LEVERAGE TO HOLD TRUMP TO
01:01:08ACCOUNT.
01:01:09JUST HOW MUCH CAN THIS NEW
01:01:14CONGRESS CHANGE? EVEN SOME OF THE REDDER STATES
01:01:16HAVE TURNED BLUE. PLACES THAT VOTED REPUBLICAN FLIPPED.
01:01:20SOME FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES.
01:01:23>> IN THIS STATE IN THIS
01:01:25COUNTRY, POWER BELONGS TO THE
01:01:31PEOPLE.
01:01:34>> David: DEMOCRATS CONTROL THE SENATE.
01:01:36IT'S FAR FROM THE ONLY RED STATE
01:01:40MAKING HISTORY TURNING BLUE.
01:01:42WOULD TRUMP VETO IF THE DEMS
01:01:46TRIED TO UNDO HIS TARIFFS?
01:01:49SHOULD CANADA GO SLOW ON TRADE
01:01:53TALKS? >> UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF A DEAL CANADA CAN ACCEPT AT THE
01:01:57END OF THE DAY. >> TARIFFS A KEY ISSUE IN THE
01:02:00CAMPAIGN AS AMERICANS GRAPPLE
01:02:03WITH HIGH COSTS OF LIVING.
01:02:05THE DEMOCRATS HAVE A HIGH BAR.
01:02:07THEY PROMISED TO BRING THOSE
01:02:11COSTS DOWN.
01:02:13>> TRUMP ASKED HIS MAGA
01:02:16SUPPORTERS TO VOTE AS IF HE WAS ON THE BALLOT.
01:02:20THAT DID NOT WORK OUT FOR HIM.
01:02:25CONGRESS WILL BEING CONTROLLED BY DEMOCRATS.
01:02:28VOTERS ARE MAKING DONALD TRUMP PAY.
01:02:31IT IS A HISTORIC PRICE BLAMING
01:02:33THEIR HIGHER COST OF LIVING ON
01:02:35HIS TARIFF FIGHT WITH CANADA AND
01:02:37THE WORLD AND THE WAR IN IRAN
01:02:40THAT TRUMP CANNOT GET OUT OF.
01:02:42VOTERS ARE ANGRY.
01:02:46THEY ARE PUNISHING TRUMP.
01:02:53DEMOCRATS TAKING CONTROL OF CONGRESS COME JANUARY.
01:02:57IT COULD TAKE DAYS UNTIL THE
01:03:00RACES ARE ACTUALLY DECIDED.
01:03:02THE DEMOCRATS ARE ON TRACK FOR A
01:03:06BIGGER HOUSE MAJORITY THAN EXPECTED.
01:03:08THE SENATE, THE DEMOCRATS ARE
01:03:16MAKING A LANDMARK MOVE.
01:03:24RIGHT HERE IN MICHIGAN.
01:03:26THE FRONT-LINE IN TRUMP'S
01:03:30TERRITORY WHERE IT COST BIG
01:03:33THREE BILLIONS.
01:03:35ABDUL EL--SAYED WON THIS STATE.
01:03:45>> MICHELLE, WE DID IT!
01:03:59THEY POINT THE FINGER AT MY FACE.
01:04:02WE BUILT A MOVEMENT GOVERNED OFF
01:04:06THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE.
01:04:09WE SHOWED IN A BATTLE BETWEEN
01:04:11THE MONEY AND THE MANY THAT THE
01:04:14MANY REALLY CAN WIN.
01:04:16>> EL-SAYED'S CAMPAIGN WAS SO
01:04:22EFFECTIVE HIS REPUBLICAN
01:04:24OPPONENT CAME OUT AGAINST THE
01:04:28TARIFF.
01:04:28HIS WIN BOOST HIS.
01:04:37>> DONALD TRUMP IS OUT WITH THE BLAME GAME NOW.
01:04:41NOT FINDING FAULT WITH HIMSELF. IN THE DAYS BEFORE THE VOTE
01:04:45TRUMP CLAIMED WITHOUT EVIDENCE
01:04:47THE DEMOCRATS WERE CHEATING.
01:04:50FERVENT SUPPORTERS URGED HIM TO
01:04:54DECLARE A NATIONAL EMERGENCY.
01:04:57THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. TRUMP TELLS FOX NEWS, HE WILL
01:05:01ACCEPT THE RESULTS.
01:05:02>> YOU'RE GOING TO ACCEPT ALL
01:05:06THESE RACES; RIGHT?
01:05:08>> SURE I WILL ACCEPT THEM.
01:05:11I'M A LITTLE BIT SURPRISED.
01:05:16>> TRUMP HASN'T APPEARED IN PUBLIC SINCE HIS CLOSING MESSAGE
01:05:19AT THE REFLECTING POOL IN WASHINGTON ON MONDAY.
01:05:23IT IS NOT CLEAR IF TRUMP IS
01:05:26REGISTERING HOW ANGRY VOTERS
01:05:29ARE.
01:05:32HIS HISTORICAL LOW.
01:05:35THAT FALL HAS BEEN ACCELERATING
01:05:37AS ENERGY PRICES SPIKE BECAUSE
01:05:39OF THE U.S. WAR ON IRAN.
01:05:43MARK CARCASOLE IS IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU.
01:05:46THE DEMOCRATS BREAK THROUGH
01:05:48WHERE TRUMP WON BY DOUBLE DIGITS.
01:05:51HE'S EXTRAORDINARY.
01:05:52WHAT DO THE DEMOCRATS NOW DO
01:05:57WITH THEIR NEW POWER? >> THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH THAT
01:06:00THEY CAN DO, DAVID.
01:06:05PRESIDENT TRUMP TOLD SUPPORTERS
01:06:06TO VOTE AS IF HE WAS ON THE
01:06:11BALLOT.
01:06:12PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SUPPORT TRUMP
01:06:18WERE OVERWHELMING. THE OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF
01:06:21DEMOCRATS IN BOTH CHAMBERS CONTROLLING CONGRESS, THEY ONLY
01:06:25HAVE SO MUCH POWER. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS DOWN.
01:06:29HE'S WEAKENED. HE IS NOT OUT.
01:06:31THE DEMOCRATS HOLD THE ABILITY
01:06:34TO BLOCK LEGISLATION PUT FORWARD BY THE REPUBLICANS.
01:06:38THEY CREATED A STALEMATE IN THE
01:06:43CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO BLOCK
01:06:45THEIR OWN LEGISLATION. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS THE ABILITY
01:06:48TO BLOCK THAT. THE DEMOCRATS HAVE POWER TO
01:06:51LAUNCH INVESTIGATIONS AGAINST THE PRESIDENT, SUBJECT HIM TO
01:06:55CONGRESSIONAL OVERSIGHT. THEY MADE IT CLEAR THEY PLAN ON
01:06:58DOING THAT NOT JUST WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP HIMSELF, BUT
01:07:02WITH MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY, THE
01:07:04POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL TIES OF
01:07:07JARED KUSHNER, HIS SONS, DON JR.
01:07:11AND ERIC TRUMP COULD BE SUBJECT
01:07:14TO INVESTIGATIONS AS WELL.
01:07:15THE CHAIR OF THE HOUSE OVERSIGHT
01:07:28COMMITTEE. IN TERMS OF THE DEMOCRATS FOR
01:07:30THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, PASSING
01:07:35THINGS THROUGH CONGRESS REMAINS TO BE SEEN.
01:07:39THEY'RE IN A WEAKENED STATE.
01:07:42HAKEEM JEFFRIES THE NEW YORK REPRESENTATIVE SET TO BECOME THE
01:07:46SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. THE FIRST BLACK PERSON TO DO SO
01:07:49HAD A LOT OF PROMISES TO VOTERS AND TO AMERICANS IN HIS SPEECH YESTERDAY.
01:07:53HERE'S WHAT HE HAD TO SAY.
01:07:54>> THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE
01:07:58SPOKEN AND MADE CLEAR THEY HAVE
01:08:01HAD ENOUGH OF THE EXTREMISM,
01:08:04ENOUGH OF THE CORRUPTION.
01:08:06THEY WANT A CONGRESS THAT'S
01:08:08GOING TO DELIVER FOR THE
01:08:10AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND THAT IS
01:08:14EXACTLY WHAT HOUSE DEMOCRATS
01:08:17WILL DO AS SOON AS WE GET IN TO
01:08:20OFFICE IN JANUARY. >> NOW NOTE THERE, HE SAYS GET
01:08:24INTO OFFICE IN JANUARY. THAT IS THE CASE.
01:08:26THE NEW-LOOK CONGRESS IF YOU
01:08:29WILL DOES NOT TAKE EFFECT UNTIL JANUARY.
01:08:31DONALD TRUMP AND HIS REPUBLICAN
01:08:34PARTY HAVE TWO MONTHS WHERE THEY
01:08:37HAVE FULL CONTROL OF CONGRESS.
01:08:40IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THEY DO WITH IT.
01:08:43>> MARK, TRUMP WAS ALREADY BEING
01:08:46CALLED A LAME DUCK.
01:08:48HE IS IN HIS FINAL TWO YEARS.
01:08:50CAN'T RUN AGAIN. FORBIDDEN BY THE CONSTITUTION.
01:08:54THERE IS A QUESTION, THOUGH.
01:08:57DONALD TRUMP DOESN'T STRIKE ME AS A LAME DUCK EVER. >> NO.
01:09:01HE DEFINITELY DOESN'T. HE'S AWARE OBVIOUSLY OF THE RESULTS.
01:09:05HE'S AWARE OF THE SHIFT IN POWER
01:09:07IN CONGRESS AND LIKELY AWARE OF THE FACT THAT HE HOLDS QUITE A
01:09:10BIT OF POWER. FOR INSTANCE, HE DOES RETAIN
01:09:14EXECUTIVE POWER ALLOWING HIM TO PUT FORWARD THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS
01:09:17WHICH HE LIKES SO MUCH.
01:09:20HE USED EXECUTIVE ORDERS SEVERAL
01:09:22TIMES OVER THE FIRST TWO YEARS
01:09:24OF THIS TERM TO SKIRT AROUND
01:09:26CONGRESS AND PUSH FORWARD HIS AGENDA.
01:09:29THE TARIFFS, THE TRADE WAR WITH CANADA GO OTHER COUNTRIES.
01:09:33HE CAN DO THAT. HE RETAINS VETO POWER.
01:09:37HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT IF THE
01:09:40REPUBLICANS DID NOT RETAIN
01:09:45CONTROL OF CONGRESS. HE SAID HE WOULD BECOME
01:09:48Mr. VETO. HE SAID HE WOULD ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THE ELECTION.
01:09:52HE WOULD DO IT IN HIS OWN WAY.
01:09:54HE HINTED TO THAT POWER HE STILL
01:10:00RETAINS. >> President Trump: BEEN DONE NUMEROUS TIMES.
01:10:02POWER OF VETO.
01:10:08ONE OF THE STRONGER POWERS THE
01:10:13PRESIDENT HAVE.
01:10:17WE GET THIS STUFF DONE.
01:10:19>> JUST SO SOLIDIFY HIS
01:10:22TRANSFORMATION INTO Mr. VETO RAGING THE RESULTS ON SOCIAL
01:10:25MEDIA BLAMING THE MEDIA AND INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES THEMSELVES.
01:10:29HE POSTED THIS PICTURE OF A RED
01:10:32MAGA STYLE HAT. INSTEAD OF MAKE AMERICA GREAT
01:10:35AGAIN ON IT.
01:10:36THE WORD IN CAPITAL LETTERS VETO
01:10:40EMBROIDERED ON THAT RED HAT.
01:10:42THE DEMOCRATS DO NOT HAVE
01:10:46TWO-THIRDS SUPER MAJORITY REQUIRED TO GET AROUND A
01:10:49PRESIDENTIAL VETO.
01:10:52THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO STOP THEM IN THEIR TRACKS.
01:10:56THE DEMOCRATS SIGNALED IN THE
01:10:58TIME LEADING UP TO MIDTERMS THAT
01:11:00A PRIORITY FOR THEM IS TARIFF
01:11:04RELIEF ESPECIALLY WITH THE
01:11:07RELIEF ON CANADA. THE TOP DEMOCRAT ON THE SENATE
01:11:11FINANCE COMMITTEE TOLD REPORTERS
01:11:13THE FOLLOWING, ONE OF THE MOST
01:11:15OBVIOUS PRIORITIES WOULD BE
01:11:17REPEALING TRUMP'S TARIFFS ON
01:11:22CANADA. SINCE THEY DON'T HAVE THAT TWO-THIRDS MAJORITY TO GET
01:11:25AROUND A VETO.
01:11:28THEY DON'T TECHNICALLY HAVE THE
01:11:30ABILITY TO DO THAT.
01:11:32IT'S NOT OUTSIDE THE RELICS OF
01:11:41POSSIBILITY, DEMOCRATS.
01:11:44PEOPLE FEEL AS THOUGH THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO LIVE.
01:11:46COST OF LIVE IS IMPORTANT. WE HAVE SEEN SOME REPUBLICAN
01:11:50CANDIDATES DURING THE COURSE OF THE CAMPAIGN FLIP-FLOP ON ISSUES
01:11:53OF AFFORDABILITY LIKE IN MICHIGAN AS YOU MENTIONED.
01:11:56IT'S NOT OUTSIDE THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY THAT REPUBLICANS
01:11:59MIGHT COOPERATE WITH DEMOCRATS
01:12:08REMAINS TO BE SEEN. >> David: MARK CARCASOLE IN
01:12:12WASHINGTON, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WHAT DOES THIS SWEEP CHANGE MEAN
01:12:15FOR CANADA AND THE TRADE RELATIONSHIP?
01:12:17MARK CARNEY IS IN NO RUSH TO MAKE A DEAL.
01:12:21THE CANADIAN IMPLICATIONS WITH OLIVIA STEFANOVICH IN OUR OTTAWA BUREAU.
01:12:25TRADE TALKS HAD BEEN TO SOME DEGREE BACK ON.
01:12:28DOES THAT NOW CONTINUE. >> Reporter: IT DOES, DAVID.
01:12:31WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND
01:12:33IS EVEN THOUGH THERE'S BEEN A
01:12:36BLUE ASTSUNAMI IN THE U.S., TRU
01:12:43IS GOING FORWARD.
01:12:47PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY HAS TO NEGOTIATE WITH TRUMP WHEN IT
01:12:49COMES TO LANDING A NEW TRADE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TWO
01:12:53COUNTS. WHAT'S POSSIBLE IS THAT GOING FORWARD THERE MAY BE MORE
01:12:57POLITICAL PRESSURE ON TRUMP AND
01:12:59HIS ADMINISTRATION TO REVERSE THE TARIFF POLICIES AGAINST CANADA.
01:13:02THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HERE WOULD
01:13:05CERTAINLY LIKE TO SEE MOVING FORWARD, DAVID.
01:13:07WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN SOME
01:13:09POSITIVE MOMENTUM IN RECENT DAYS
01:13:12LEADING UP TO THE MIDTERMS WITH THE U.S. PRESIDENT SAYING MORE
01:13:16POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT CANADA AND THE POSSIBILITY OF LANDING A NEW
01:13:19TRADE DEAL WITH THIS COUNTRY. JUST YESTERDAY WE HEARD FROM THE
01:13:23PRIME MINISTER HIMSELF THAT THE U.S. IS ASKING FOR LESS AND
01:13:27OFFERING MORE. KEEP IN MIND, THE U.S. IS STILL
01:13:30ASKING FOR THINGS OF CANADA.
01:13:33I DON'T THINK WE'RE IN A
01:13:35SITUATION, DAVID, WHERE TARIFFS
01:13:39GO COMPLETELY DOWN TO ZERO.
01:13:42BOTH SIDES ARE NEGOTIATING A BASE LEVEL OF TARIFFS.
01:13:46>> THE CANADIAN SIDE CAN POINT TO THE MIDTERM RESULTS.
01:13:50THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE
01:13:52TARIFF POLICIES ESPECIALLY ON CANADA.
01:13:55THE CANADIAN SIDE CAN USE THE
01:13:57RESULTS AS MOMENTUM TO SECURE A
01:14:00MORE FAVOURABLE DEAL WITH CANADA.
01:14:04>> David: DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN
01:14:10PROTECTIONIST IN PAST ADMINISTRATIONS.
01:14:12I WONDER WHAT CANADA CAN CONTROL
01:14:16HERE. WHAT CHANGES IN CANADA'S APPROACH IF ANYTHING? >> THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL
01:14:20BE LOOKING TO THE DEMOCRATS TO
01:14:21TRY TO MAYBE UNDO, REVERSE SOME
01:14:24OF THE TARIFF POLICIES, EVEN TRY
01:14:27TO BLOCK SOME OF THESE TARIFF POLICIES MOVING FORWARD.
01:14:29THE PRESIDENT HAS A VETO. IT'S STILL UNCLEAR WHERE THE
01:14:33DEMOCRATS STAND IN ALL OF THIS IN TERMS OF WHETHER THEY WOULD
01:14:37LIKE TO SEE OR CAN POSSIBLY GET
01:14:42TARIFFS DOWN TO ZERO AND RESTORE
01:14:45COMPLETE FREE TRADE BETWEEN THE
01:14:50COUNTRIES. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THEMSELVES
01:14:53DO NOT LIKE THE WAY THAT THE
01:14:55U.S. HAS BEEN TREATING CANADA.
01:14:58THAT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT THE CANADIAN SIDE HAS BEEN TRYING TO MAKE CLEAR TO THE
01:15:02AMERICANS ALL ALONG.
01:15:06ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO'S BEEN TRYING TO MAKE THIS MESSAGE
01:15:09CLEAR TO THE AMERICANS IS
01:15:12KRISTEN HILL MAN, THE FORMER
01:15:18CANADIAN AMBASSADOR TO THE U.S.
01:15:20HERE'S WHAT SHE'S SAYING...
01:15:22>> IT'S TIME TO OBSERVE WHAT, ONE, THE NEW CONGRESS IS SAYING,
01:15:26WHAT THEY'RE DOING. ARE THEY TABLING LEGISLATION
01:15:33THERE WILL BE DEVILS IN THE DETAILS.
01:15:36>> NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS SOUTH OF THE BORDER, DAVID, ONE THING
01:15:39IS CLEAR. THAT THE PRIME MINISTER INTENDS
01:15:42TO CONTINUE TRYING TO COERCEFY
01:15:45CANADA'S TRADING RELATIONSHIPS AND STRENGTHENING PARTNERSHIPS
01:15:49TO OTHER COUNTRIES TO MAKE
01:15:53CANADA LESS RELIANT ON THE U.S.
01:15:56GOING FORWARD.
01:16:06RELIANT ON THE U.S.
01:16:11>> David: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
01:16:12IT'S BEEN GENERATIONS.
01:16:23>> ANY TEXAN WONDERED IF ANYONE IS LISTENING.
01:16:26I HEARD YOU. WE HEARD YOU.
01:16:28AND TONIGHT THE WORLD HEARS YOU.
01:16:35>> David: REPUBLICAN KEN PAXTON IN WHAT IS CALLED THE MOST
01:16:39EXPENSIVE SENATE RACE IN HISTORY. IT COST HALF A BILLION DOLLARS
01:16:43AND A SEISMIC POLITICAL SHIFT
01:16:45FOR THE SECOND MOST POPULOUS
01:16:49STATE HE ENDING THREE DECADES OF REPUBLICAN CONTROL.
01:16:52STEVE FUTTERMAN NOW WITH MORE.
01:16:56>> NOW THEY ALMOST SWEPT ALL THE
01:16:59STATEWIDE OFFICES.
01:17:02THE MOST FOCUSED SENATE RACE OF
01:17:05THE NATION THIS YEAR IN THE MIDTERMS.
01:17:09GREG ABBOT HAS BEEN GOVERNOR
01:17:14SINCE 2014.
01:17:16>> WE SHOCKED THE WORLD TONIGHT.
01:17:22WITH A TEXAS CHIP ON OUR SHOULDER, WE SHOWED THAT
01:17:25ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
01:17:33IT NEVER BOTHERED ME THAT THEY DOUBTED ME.
01:17:36IT BOTHERED ME THAT THEY DOUBTED
01:17:43US.
01:17:43>> TALARICO SPOKE AS WELL.
01:17:48HE SPOKE ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE AND THE SYMBOLISM OF THIS ONE.
01:17:51>> WE WERE THE UNDERDOGS IN THIS
01:17:53RACE AGAINST 40 YEARS OF DOUBT
01:17:56AND DISILLUSION, AGAINST MORE
01:17:58THAN $300 MILLION, MORE THAN ANY
01:18:00SENATE CAMPAIGN IN AMERICAN
01:18:04HISTORY. WE WENT UP AGAINST ALL THE
01:18:07NEGATIVE ADS, SMEAR CAMPAIGNS,
01:18:10A.I. BOTS AND DEEPFAKES THAT MONEY CAN BUY.
01:18:14THOSE ATTACKS WERE THE FINAL
01:18:17HOWLS OF A DYING ESTABLISHMENT. >> IT'S NOT LIKE I SAID.
01:18:21TOS NOT JUST GOVERNOR OR SENATE.
01:18:24THEY WON THE LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR'S OFFICE.
01:18:27ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE.
01:18:30RAILROAD COMMISSIONS WHICH IS A
01:18:33PRETTY BIG OFFICE IN TEXAS.
01:18:35WHAT DID THEY DO AFTERWARDS?
01:18:37THEY WENT TO A TEXAS WATER BURGER.
01:18:41NOT SURE WHAT WAS ON THE MENU.
01:18:43THEY HAD A VERY NICE GATHERING
01:18:45AT WATER BURGER LAST NIGHT.
01:18:48IT'S A PICTURE GOING AROUND IN
01:18:56>> David: STEVE FUTTERMAN IN AUSTIN TEXAS.
01:18:59THE MULTIPLE WIN IN THE RED
01:19:02STATE PROMPTED A WHOLE LOT OF
01:19:08EMO EMOTION. >> HOW AM I DOING?
01:19:11IT WAS THE FIRST TIME A LOT OF
01:19:14PEOPLE WOULD BE ALIVE.
01:19:19HOW AM I DOING? WE WERE IN THE GRASSROOTS TO
01:19:22MAKE IT HAPPEN.
01:19:24TODAY IS EVIDENCE.
01:19:29IT'S A LANDSLIDE VICTORY.
01:19:31>> IT'S A LANDFIALL.
01:19:37LANDFALL. THEY CONTROL OF THE MONEY AND
01:19:41THE CORRUPTION, IT SEEMED LIKE
01:19:44THIS WAS NOT POSSIBLE.
01:19:52THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN.
01:20:11SO I CAN SEE THE TELEPROMPTER.
01:20:15THE SENATE RACE CAN'T BE CALLED
01:20:18YET EVEN WITH 96% OF THE BALLOTS
01:20:21BECAUSE THERE ARE 43 VOTES SEPARATING THE DEMOCRATS IN THE
01:20:23LEAD FROM THE REPUBLICANS.
01:20:28THEY HAVE NOT HAD DEMOCRATIC SENATORS SINCE 1989.
01:20:31LOOK HOW CLOSE THAT IS. 43 VOTES APART.
01:20:35YOU CAN BET THERE WILL BE SOME
01:20:37JUDICIAL COUNT REQUESTS IN THAT
01:20:39A STATE.
01:20:42VOTER FRUSTRATION OVER COST OF
01:20:43LIVING FUELLED DEMOCRATIC WINS
01:20:47IN SEVERAL OF THEM BATTLEGROUND
01:20:51STATES. DEMOCRATS FLIPPED FOUR HOUSE
01:20:52SEATS IN PENNSYLVANIA.
01:21:05THE STORY THERE.
01:21:07LET ME DO THAT FOR YOU.
01:21:09GOOD MORNING, DAVID.
01:21:12LAST NIGHT'S STORY WAS ALL ABOUT NUMBERS. I WILL START THERE.
01:21:15THAT TELLS THE STORY.
01:21:17BOB BROOKS WON BY AT LEAST
01:21:2135,000 VOTES. THAT'S ABOUT A 12-POINT MARGIN.
01:21:24LET ME GIVE YOU SOME CONTEXT WHY
01:21:27THAT IS A STUNNING VICTORY. THIS DISTRICT THAT WE'RE IN,
01:21:31PENNSYLVANIA 7, IS TYPICALLY A
01:21:33SWING DISTRICT.
01:21:35ALSO VICTORIES ARE EKED OUT OF
01:21:41HERE. SUCH A DECISIVE WIN IS SOMETHING TO LOOK AT.
01:21:45LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE. WHEN THIS DISTRICT WAS FLIPPED
01:21:49RED, RYAN McKENZIE DID THAT BY A
01:21:52FEW THOUSAND VOTES.
01:21:54PAST PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS WON
01:21:57THIS DISTRICT AGAINST HILLARY
01:21:58CLINTON HE DID IT BY A FEW
01:22:04PERCENTAGE POINTS.
01:22:06WHEN TRUMP WON AGAINST HARRIS
01:22:09ALSO BY A FEW HERITAGE VOTES.
01:22:21PEOPLE AT HIS OFFICIAL WATCH
01:22:23PARTY WERE PRETTY HAPPY AND
01:22:25CONFIDENT THAT THEY KNOW ALL
01:22:29ALONG THAT WAS WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.
01:22:32IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE. THAT WAS REALLY WHAT THEY WERE
01:22:35PREDICTING ALL ALONG. HAVE A LISTEN TO WHAT ONE PERSON
01:22:39TOLD ME ABOUT.
01:22:45WHY HE THINKS THIS VICTORY CROSSED THE FINISH LINE IN SUCH
01:22:48A BIG WAY.
01:22:51>> I BOUGHT A TANK OF GAS.
01:22:54IT COST $60. PEOPLE ARE UPSET ABOUT THE
01:22:57TARIFFS AND THE WAR OF IRAN.
01:22:59THE PRESIDENT SAID HE'S GOING TO
01:23:03FIX EVERYTHING. THAT HAS NOT BEEN THE CASE.
01:23:07>> BRITISH COLUMBIAS IS
01:23:10-- BROOKS IS A FIRST TIME POLITICAL CANDIDATE.
01:23:13HE USED TO BE A BARTENDER AND A
01:23:17LANDSCAPER. A HUGE PART OF HIS MESSAGING HAD
01:23:20EVERYTHING TO DO WITH HIS FIGHT
01:23:22FOR THE WORKING CLASS.
01:23:26HE SAID MORE WORKING CLASS REPRESENTATION IN WASHINGTON.
01:23:29HE AUTHENTICALLY REPRESENTED
01:23:33THAT. OBVIOUSLY THAT WAS ENOUGH TO GET
01:23:35HIM THOSE VOTES.
01:23:38THE REPUBLICAN THAT HE FACED WAS
01:23:41TRUMP ENDORSED.
01:23:46PRESIDENT TRUMP CAME TO THIS
01:23:48DISTRICT AND STOOD SHOULDER TO
01:23:52SHOULDER TO RALLY THE REPUBLICAN
01:23:57VOTERS HERE. THAT MAY HAVE BACKFIRED.
01:24:00>> IT IS REMARKABLE TO ME THAT
01:24:05VIRTUALLY EVERY PERSON, CANADA
01:24:08DONALD TRUMP PICKED NATIONWIDE ENDED UP BEING DEFEATED.
01:24:10IT'S STRIKING HOW IN YOUR STATE
01:24:12IN PENNSYLVANIA THERE, SO MANY
01:24:15TOSSUPS ENDED UP JUST FLIPPING
01:24:19BLUE. >> EXACTLY. I'M GOING TO START WITH THE
01:24:21NUMBERS AGAIN, DAVID. IN PENNSYLVANIA'S FIRST
01:24:25CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT, THE
01:24:29DEMOCRATS FLIPPED BLUE BY AT LEAST 19,000 VOTES.
01:24:33AND THEN IN PENNSYLVANIA'S 8th
01:24:36CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT, 24,000
01:24:38VOTES AND THEN 31,000 VOTES IN
01:24:44PENNSYLVANIA'S CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. THOSE ARE BIG NUMBERS LEADING UP
01:24:47TO THE VOTE. THE CANDIDATES IN THESE
01:24:51DISTRICTS DAVID WERE NECK AND NECK IN THE POLLS.
01:24:54THE DECISIVE VICTORY SAYS A LOT
01:24:57ABOUT HOW THE DEMOCRATS' MESSAGING IN THIS DISTRICT
01:25:00LANDED. THEY CALLED TRUMP'S TARIFFS POINTLESS.
01:25:04REMEMBER, THIS WAS THE DISTRICT WHERE TRUMP ANNOUNCED HIS
01:25:08TARIFFS ON AUTOS AND STEEL AND
01:25:14ALUMINUM. CLEARLY A LOT OF VOTERS BLAME
01:25:17TRUMP'S POLICIES FOR SOME OF THE
01:25:18STRUGGLES AT HOME TO PAY FOR
01:25:23GAS, RENT, AND HEALTHCARE. WE HEARD THAT A LOT.
01:25:26I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT THE WINS
01:25:30IN THE HOUSE CARRIED OVER TO WINS IN THE STATES.
01:25:32FOR THE FIRST TIME, DEMOCRATS AT
01:25:35THE STATE LEVEL CLAIM A TRIFECTA
01:25:41WIN. THAT HASN'T HAPPEN SINCE THE EARLY '90s.
01:25:45JOSH SHAPIRO, HERE'S WHAT HE HAD TO SAY ABOUT THAT LAST NIGHT.
01:25:49>> YOU SHOWED THAT YOUR BELIEF
01:25:52IN OUR FUTURE IS SO MUCH BIGGER
01:25:54THAN SMALL AND SELFISH MEN.
01:25:56TONIGHT, YOU SHOWED THAT YOU
01:25:58BELIEVE WHAT OUR FOUNDERS DID,
01:26:01THAT AMERICA IS NOT A BOUNTY TO
01:26:04BE PLUNDERED BUT A TREASURE TO
01:26:10BE SHARED BY ONE AND ALL.
01:26:11>> THAT ECHOED WHAT BOB BROOKS
01:26:15SAID IN HIS VICTORY SPEECH.
01:26:19REPHRASE A LITTLE BIT. HE TALKED ABOUT THE PEOPLE IN
01:26:22THIS DISTRICT WORKING HARD WHO
01:26:25ARE PUNCHING THE CLOCK AND DOING
01:26:31EVERYTHING RIGHT.
01:26:38CLEARLY THAT MESSAGE RESONATED
01:26:46>> David: CERTAINLY DID. RIGHT ACROSS THE COUNTRY, KRIS REYES, THANK YOU.
01:26:51POLITICAL MAP WILL LOOK LIKE FOR
01:27:04LOVE. WE CAN'T MAKE IT WORK. >> David: WHAT DOES THIS BLUE
01:27:08WAVE MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN TARIFFS OR TRADE TALKS
01:27:11TO THE SOUTH. WE'RE EXPLORING THAT RIGHT AHEAD
01:27:14HERE ON "CBC MORNING LIVE." [ ♪ ] >> You're
01:29:11>> DEMOCRATS CELEBRATING TAKING THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE.
01:29:14IS HE A BARRIER TO GETTING A
01:29:17TRADE DEAL? ROSEMARY BARTON LOOKING AT WHY
01:29:21OTTAWA SHOULD EVEN TRY.
01:29:22>> JAMES MOORE POSTED ON "X."
01:29:25DON'T MAKE A DEAL WITH THE
01:29:28REPUDIATED AND DEPARTING
01:29:30PRESIDENT THAT NORMALIZES
01:29:35TARIFFS THAT CANADIANS AND
01:29:44AMERICANS DON'T BOTHER.
01:29:46THAT COULD BE CONSERVATIVE
01:29:48POSTURING AND POSITIONING FOR
01:29:51FUTURE CRITICISM OF THE PRIME MINISTER COMPLETELY.
01:29:55IT RAISES AN IMPORTANT POINT ABOUT THE TIME LINES AROUND THIS
01:29:58OR THE PRESSURE AROUND TRYING TO MAKE A DEAL.
01:30:01OBVIOUSLY IT'S GOING TO BE VERY
01:30:03DIFFICULT FOR THE PRESIDENT TO
01:30:06GO AHEAD AND PUT 50% AUTO
01:30:15TARIFFS. ALL OF THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN
01:30:19CLEARLY REJECTED BY AMERICANS. THERE'S LOTS OF QUESTIONS.
01:30:23I WILL DRAMATICALLY CHANGES THE
01:30:37TO ROB. HE IS A POLITICAL ANIMAL AND WATCHED A TON LAST NIGHT.
01:30:41HE WILL BE ECSTATIC TO TALK
01:30:42ABOUT THIS TODAY.
01:30:45ROB, YOU'RE TOP LEVEL, HAVE YOU SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS BEFORE?
01:30:49>> NO, I HAVEN'T.
01:30:52I AM REMINDED AS A STUDENT OF
01:30:54HISTORY OF SOMETHING THAT
01:30:56HAPPENED IN 1954 WHEN THERE WAS
01:31:01ANOTHER SORT OF BULLYING
01:31:05TAUNTING KIND OF DOMINANT PRESENCE AMONG REPUBLICANS.
01:31:09A MAN NAMED JOE McCARTHY.
01:31:15HE COST DWIGHT EISENHOWER A
01:31:23STINGING LOSS IN THE MIDTERMS.
01:31:25WE HAVE SEEN A ECHO OF THAT THE
01:31:40WWE.
01:31:40AMERICANS WERE --
01:31:48>> GASOLINE AND GROCERIES WEREN'T SO EXPENSIVE.
01:31:52THAT YOU CHANGED. THAT'S THE TREND TO LOOK AT.
01:31:54>> David: I BEGIN TO WONDER,
01:31:57ROB, WHAT THE UNITED STATES IS NOW?
01:32:00TEXAS HAD BEEN TRENDING PURPLE.
01:32:03TO GO FROM A RELIABLE RED STATE
01:32:06TO NOW BLUE WITH THE SENATOR AND
01:32:11GOVERNOR. ABDUL EL-SAYED BECOMING THE NEXT
01:32:15SENATOR. WHAT DOES THIS PORTEND TO YOU
01:32:18ABOUT WHERE AMERICAN POLITICS IS
01:32:24NOW?
01:32:25SOMEBODY SPENT A LONG TIME IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
01:32:29I CAN TELL YOU WHERE IT IS. ONE CAMPAIGN SEASON ENDED.
01:32:32THE NEXT BEGAN THIS MORNING. THAT'S THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.
01:32:35CANADA HAS TO WATCH CLOSELY.
01:32:38WHAT LESSONS, WHAT MESSAGES ARE
01:32:41THOSE WHO WOULD LEAD BOTH
01:32:48PARTIES CLIMBING OUT OF THE
01:32:51WRECKAGE FOR THE REPUBLICANS. THAT CAMPAIGN HAS BEGUN.
01:32:55IN THE INTERIM, IT BEHOOVES
01:32:57CANADA TO BE AWARE OF THE FACT
01:33:01THAT THE DEMOCRATS DO NOT HAVE A SUPERMAJORITY.
01:33:04DONALD TRUMP HAS A VETO.
01:33:06HE'S SOUNDING SOOTHING THIS MORNING.
01:33:09EVERYONE THAT I SPOKE TO. I SPOKE TO A COUPLE OF PEOPLE
01:33:12LAST NIGHT INVOLVED IN
01:33:15SIGNIFICANT TRADE WITH THE
01:33:17UNITED STATES, THEY'RE TELLING
01:33:19THEIR CLIENT TO EXPECT TUMOLT.
01:33:36DEMOCRATS MAY PUSH LEGISLATION,
01:33:38TRUMP IS TRIAL VETO IT.
01:33:41EVERYTHING BECOMES SORT OF STATIC.
01:33:43ON THAT TRADE FRONT WITH CANADA,
01:33:46IT SEEMS AS IF MARK CARNEY IS
01:33:48COMFORTABLE EVEN WAITING IT OUT UNTIL TRUMP IS NOT THERE.
01:33:52WHAT IS THE RISK IF THAT IS THE
01:33:56APPROACH? >> THE RISK IS DONALD TRUMP REMAINS PRESIDENT AND IN CHARGE
01:34:00OF TRADE POLICY FOR THE NEXT TWO
01:34:06YEARS.
01:34:09I HEARD ROSEMARY'S CLIPS.
01:34:1450% EXPORT TARIFFS ON AUTOS. MAYBE.
01:34:18HE HAS THE POWER TO
01:34:21SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGE CANADA'S ECONOMY.
01:34:24WHAT WE SHOULD WATCH FOR NOW IS
01:34:26THOSE IN REPUBLICAN PARTIES LEFT
01:34:34TO THE BITTER END.
01:34:40THE CHOICE IS FEALTY TO TRUMP OR
01:34:43GO DOWN IN THE FACE OF VOTERS.
01:34:44ARE THEY GOING TO TRY TO NUDGE
01:34:47HIM BEFORE BEING MORE REASONABLE ON TARIFFS?
01:34:51THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO WATCH FOR. >> ON THE CANADIAN SIDE, THERE
01:34:55IS A RISK FOR THE PRIME MINISTER, EVEN IF IT'S A GREAT
01:34:58DEAL, EVEN IF CANADA GETS A GOOD
01:35:01DEAL THERE IS A RISK OF BEING
01:35:03ASSOCIATED IN ANY WAY WITH DONALD TRUMP. THE PRIME MINISTER IS THE PRIME MINISTER.
01:35:07HE ACKNOWLEDGED THIS BECAUSE OF HIS OPPOSITION TO TRUMP, BECAUSE
01:35:11OF WAY HE DEALT WITH TRUMP.
01:35:13HE HAS TO BE WARY.
01:35:16IF THERE IS A DEAL THAT CAN BE
01:35:21ENFORCED OR RESPECTED BY
01:35:23DONALD TRUMP THAT'S IN CANADA'S
01:35:26INTEREST, I THINK THE PRIME MINISTER WOULD HAVE A LOOK AT IT.
01:35:30>> YOU MENTIONED THE NEXT RACE BEGINS TODAY.
01:35:33THAT IS FOR THE NEXT U.S. PRESIDENT.
01:35:35YOU TALK ABOUT FEALTY TO THE
01:35:37CURRENT PRESIDENT FROM MANY REPUBLICANS.
01:35:40THAT WAS TRUE FOR THE FIRST 20,
01:35:4221 MONTHS OF THIS SECOND TERM.
01:35:44IN THIS STATE IN MICHIGAN, THE CLOSE TO TRUMP REPUBLICAN
01:35:48CANDIDATE FOR SENATE ENDED UP IN
01:35:53AN AD SLAMMING TARIFFS HOLDING A
01:35:55LABATT'S BEER.
01:35:57ARE WE GOING TO SEE MORE
01:35:59REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES DOING WHAT
01:36:02THEY CAN TO DISTANCE THEMSELVES
01:36:07FROM DONALD TRUMP?
01:36:13IF PRICES REMAIN HIGH, YES.
01:36:15THE VULGARITY, THE BULLYING, THE
01:36:18TAUNTING, ALL OF THAT SERVED THOSE PEOPLE AND MAGA SUPPORTERS
01:36:22WELL FOR A DECADE.
01:36:32IT IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT DIDN'T MATTER TO THEM.
01:36:35U.S. PRESIDENTS ARE EFFECTIVELY ELECTED ON THE PRICES OF
01:36:38GASOLINE AND GROCERIES.
01:36:43IF THOSE PRICES REMAIN ELEVATED,
01:36:46REPUBLICANS WILL BEGIN TO GET
01:36:48OFF THEIR KNEES AND FIGHT FOR
01:36:52THEIR CONSTITUENTS.
01:36:53IF I WERE JD VANCE OR MARCO
01:36:56RUBIO, I WOULD BE FEELING THE
01:36:59PRESSURE UNDER THE SEAT IN A
01:37:04HUGE, HUGE WAY. THEY'RE ON THE HOT SEAT.
01:37:06LET'S SEE WHAT THEY DO OVER THE
01:37:09NEXT CAN COUPLE OF YEARS.
01:37:15PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL TRY TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
01:37:19NOBODY SHOULD HAVE ANY, ANY ILLUSIONS ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT
01:37:23DONALD TRUMP WILL CONTINUE TO
01:37:24TRY TO EXERT HIS INFLUENCE OVER
01:37:29THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
01:37:30DO IT HAD -- IT'S BEEN A
01:37:40SUCCESSFUL VEHICLE.
01:37:41IT ONLY SCALD, SCALD AND CRASHED
01:37:44LAST NIGHT ONLY BECAUSE OF THOSE
01:37:46EXTERNAL FACTORS.
01:37:48NOT BECAUSE OF THE VULGARITY.
01:37:59CAPITALISTS AROUND THE WORLD ARE
01:38:16ROB RUSSO GOOD TO CHAT. WE WILL BE CHATTING AGAIN.
01:38:19THE THANK YOU. >> BYE IT'S.
01:38:22>> MICHIGANDERS WE WANT TAXES
01:38:28SPENT HERE.
01:38:31WE DON'T OUR MONEY SENT TO
01:38:33APARTHEID OR GENOCIDE OR WAR.
01:38:40ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT.
01:38:42YOU HAVE A HOUSE IN FLORIDA AND
01:38:47TWO YACHTS.
01:38:48YOU CHOSE HATE.
01:38:51MICHIGAN CHOSE HOPE.
01:38:54>> David: ABDUL EL-SAYED TOOK
01:38:57MICHIGAN'S OPEN SENATE SEAT.
01:39:00THE FIRST MUSLIM ELECTED TO THE
01:39:02CHAMBER A BREAKTHROUGH FOR THE
01:39:08DEMOCRATS' PROGRESSIVE WING.
01:39:10IT'S A TIGHT RACE.
01:39:17EL-SAYED VICTORY PARTY, I THINK IT WAS 1 a.m.
01:39:19I SAW THIS GUY. MICHAEL HOWARD, IT WAS GOOD TO
01:39:23SEE YOU AGAIN. YOU DO NOT BELIEVE IN SLEEP APPARENTLY.
01:39:27>> NOT AT ALL.
01:39:28>> David: WERE YOU THERE WHEN
01:39:33ABDUL EL-SAYED CLAIMED VICTORY.
01:39:35>> I DON'T THINK I LEFT UNTIL 2:30, 2:50.
01:39:39>> David: HOW ARE YOU FEELING? >> THE WEATHER WAS FRIGHTFUL.
01:39:42IT WAS A GREAT DAY IN MICHIGAN.
01:39:44>> WE TALKED TO YOU MONTHS AGO.
01:39:47YOU OWN A BUSINESS THAT'S BEEN IMPACTED BY TARIFFS.
01:39:51THE IMPACT ON THE WOOD YOU HAVE.
01:39:53YOU HAVE WOOD RIGHT NOW IN THE
01:39:55BACK OF YOUR TRUCK FROM CANADA.
01:39:59WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENS NOW?
01:40:02DEMOCRATS AS A WHOLE WERE NOT
01:40:05EXPECTING THIS LANDSLIDE OF A VICTORY.
01:40:08HOW DO YOU BUILD A COALITION TO
01:40:12MOVE FORWARD AND DO WHAT'S BEST
01:40:17FOR AMERICANS.
01:40:19HOW DO WE MAKE LIFE BETTER?
01:40:22>> David: THINGS HAVE BEEN SO PARTISAN BUT SO MUCH SO IN THE
01:40:26LAST TWO YEARS.
01:40:27HOW DO THESE TWO SIDES EVEN TALK
01:40:32TO ONE ANOTHER POLITICALLY NOW.
01:40:35>> THE MAIN DRIVER OF THE
01:40:39PARTISAN DIVISION WAS PRESIDENT TRUMP. >> HE IS STILL PRESIDENT.
01:40:43>> HE IS STILL PRESIDENT. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HE'S GOING
01:40:47TO DO. DEMOCRATS HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW
01:40:49THEY'RE GOING TO WORK WITH THE
01:40:52PRESIDENT AND MAINTAIN CIVILITY
01:40:54GOING FORWARD.
01:40:56THERE WAS EUPHORIA.
01:41:03AT THE SAME TIME, THAT EUPHORIA
01:41:06MAY IGNORE THE PARTY IS NOT IN A FANTASTIC PLACE.
01:41:09A LOT OF AMERICANS DO NOT TRUST THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
01:41:12THEY LIKE IT A LITTLE BIT BETTER THAN THE REPUBLICANS IN THIS MOMENT.
01:41:16>> DO YOU THINK THAT THIS IS A
01:41:19NECESSITY FOR POLITICIANS?
01:41:24EVEN IN THE FACE OF VICTORY, WE
01:41:28NEED TO LOOK AT OURSELVES.
01:41:30>> WINNING A SENATE ELECTION
01:41:36WISDOM WAS JTO BUILD COALITIONS.
01:41:45HE'S NOT THE SENATOR TO REPRESENT THE DEMOCRATS OR
01:41:48MUSLIMS IN MICHIGAN.
01:41:50REPRESENTING ALL 10 MILLION
01:41:54MICHIGANDERS. >> David: MY ATTENTION SPAN IS
01:41:57GOING TO THE NEXT THING. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU
01:42:00HAVE THE ATTENTION SPAN OF A FLY.
01:42:04WE EXPECT JD VANCE AND MARCO
01:42:06RUBIO ALONG MANY OTHERS TO PUT
01:42:10THEIR HAT IN TO REPLACE TRUMP.
01:42:13I WONDER ABOUT DEMOCRATIC
01:42:16TICKETS. IS THERE SOMEBODY YOU WOULD LIKE
01:42:19TO SEE GET THAT NOMINATION?
01:42:26>> WE S MOORE.
01:42:33HE CARES ABOUT BUILDING COALITIONS.
01:42:36>> David: WHAT IS IN HIS WAY?
01:42:38>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
01:42:41IT'S FOCUSED ON BEING THE BEST
01:42:44HE CAN BE. I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S GOING TO
01:42:48RUN FOR IT.
01:42:56SHE'S PROBABLY GOING TO RUN. IT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
01:42:59WHAT DOES THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
01:43:20BOTH OF US BE SAFE WITH THE TINY
01:43:22AMOUNT OF SLEEP THAT WE HAVE HAD.
01:43:26SUSAN COLLINS WAS EXPRESSING
01:43:28DISAPPOINTMENT AFTER SHE
01:43:31CONCEDED TO THE DEMOCRAT TROY JACKSON IN THE SENATE RACE.
01:43:35>> I FEEL LIKE THE NEXT TWO
01:43:37YEARS IS GOING TO BE ROUGH.
01:43:41THEY'RE GOING --
01:43:46>> WE LOST TONIGHT BECAUSE OF HIM.
01:43:48I'M ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHED.
01:43:51THE SENATORS HAS DONE A WOFRL
01:43:54JOB OF CAMPAIGNING ACROSS THE STATE.
01:43:57>> IT'S A SAD DAY FOR THE STATE OF MAINE.
01:44:01MAINERS DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GETTING.
01:44:04>> COLLINS SERVED AS A SENATOR
01:44:08FOR MAINE.
01:44:10SHE RAN UNOPPOSED ON THE
01:44:21PRIMARY. >> Going l
01:46:42>> David: WE ARE LIVE FOR YOU IN
01:46:46MICHIGAN. THIS IS A STATE HIT HARD BY TRUMP'S TARIFFS.
01:46:50WHAT NOW FOR TARIFFS AND
01:47:12THAN HOURS FOR YOU AND I. TRUMP IS PRESIDENT.
01:47:16THE TARIFFS ARE STILL HERE.
01:47:19WHAT IS THE CALCULUS FOR YOU NOW ON WHETHER CANADA SHOULD PUSH
01:47:23AHEAD ON A TRADE DEAL OR JUST
01:47:25WAIT IT OUT?
01:47:28>> LOOK WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT SPECIFICALLY FOR AUTOMOTIVE,
01:47:31THERE'S A SERIES OF STATE
01:47:34SENATORS THAT WERE ELECTED FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IN
01:47:38AUTOMOTIVE STATES.
01:47:40NORTH CAROLINA SURPRISED.
01:47:42SOUTH CAROLINA, MICHIGAN, OHIO,
01:47:46KANSAS, TEXAS.
01:47:47THERE'S A BUNCH OF TOYOTA AND
01:47:52TESLA PLANTS THERE.
01:47:55THE MAJORITY WILL CARRY SOME
01:47:59WATER AND WEIGHT. OBVIOUSLY THE SAME THING IN
01:48:03CONGRESS. WE SHOULD WATCH TO SEE HOW THE DUST SETTLES.
01:48:05THE PRESIDENT IS STILL THE PRESIDENT.
01:48:09LUTNICK, GREER, THE MAIN
01:48:14CHARACTERS IN THE ADMINISTRATION ARE THERE.
01:48:16THEY DON'T HAVE MIKE JOHNSON
01:48:19CARRYING WATER IN THE HOUSE AND
01:48:31PRI SURPRISINGLY LOST. THEY ARE ON THE RECORD SAYING
01:48:34THE TRADE WAR WITH CANADA IS DUMB AND IMMEDIATELY PULL BACK
01:48:37TARIFFS ON CANADA. IT WOULD BE PRUDENT NOT TO GO
01:48:40AND SIGN SOMETHING OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
01:48:43WE WILL SEE WHAT THE NEXT WEEK
01:48:45OR SO LOOKS LIKE. >> David: I TAKE YOUR POINT.
01:48:49THAT WAS USEFUL.
01:48:51CANADA AND THE TARIFFS WERE.
01:49:02ARE THEY AS INCLINED TO PUSH DOWN THAT PATH NOW THAT THEY
01:49:06HAVE WON? DO THEY MOVE ON TO OTHER PRIORITIES?
01:49:09WHERE IS CANADA ON THAT PRIORITY LIST?
01:49:12>> IMPORTANTLY CHUCK SCHUMER
01:49:14SENATE MAJORITY LEADER AND
01:49:19HAKEEM JEFFRIES FRAMED THE TARIFFS ON CANADA AS THE MAIN
01:49:22DRIVER FOR THEIR TOP PRIORITY WHICH IS AFFORDABILITY.
01:49:26SOME OF THE EASY SHORTCUTS ARE STOPPED WITH OUR NUMBER ONE AND
01:49:30NUMBER TWO TRADING PARTNER
01:49:31INCREASING COSTS FOR AMERICANS.
01:49:34LET'S SEE BEFORE WE DECIDE THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK, LET'S
01:49:38SEE THEM GIVE IT A SHOT.
01:49:42THEY DON'T HAVE TO LIKE CANADA. ESPECIALLY IN AUTOMOTIVE.
01:49:46SITTING IN THE CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE FOR THE WESTERN WORLD'S
01:49:49AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR.
01:49:51LET'S NOT CONCEDE THAT OTHERS
01:49:56SHOULD HAVE TRIED TO GET BETTER CONDITIONS FOR THE AMERICAN SECTOR.
01:49:59WE TALK HERE.
01:50:01OF COURSE, WE'RE OFFENDED.
01:50:0551st STATE. OUR FRIEND OF THE AMERICAN
01:50:08AMBASSADOR IN OTTAWA KEEPS
01:50:11REMINDING US OUR OBLIGATIONS AS
01:50:19A JUNIOR. THEY SAY IT'S TRUMP
01:50:22ADMINISTRATION'S RETREAT ON ELECTRIFICATION AFTER THEY HAVE
01:50:26INVESTED AND HIT EVERYBODY WITH TARIFFS.
01:50:29WATCH FOR NEW SENATORS.
01:50:31WATCH FOR NEW GOVERNORS TO SAY,
01:50:35LOOK HOLD ON, MY STATE IS HURT
01:50:38BY TARIFFS WITH CANADA.
01:50:42THE PRESIDENT CAN THREATEN THE
01:50:44VETO POWER ALL HE WANTS.
01:50:46DEMOCRATS WHO GET CAUGHT TRYING
01:50:48TO MOVE THE AGENDA AND LET THE
01:50:51PRESIDENT BLOCK IT -- EVERY
01:50:58TIME HE USES THAT POWERS, THERE
01:51:00WILL BE A BATRACE IN 2028.
01:51:13>> David: WAB KINEW TWEETED
01:51:17CONGRATULATIONS.
01:51:18HE SAID END THE WAR IN IRAQ.
01:51:24FLAVIO, THE AUTO INDUSTRY, THE
01:51:27BIG THREE AUTOMAKERS HAVE BEEN
01:51:29HAEMORRHAGING MONEY.
01:51:31THE COST OF A NEW CAR HAS GONE
01:51:34UP AS A RESULT OF THOSE TARIFFS.
01:51:37AS I HAVE SPOKEN TO PEOPLE IN
01:51:40MICHIGAN, IT'S NOT JUST A COST IN MONEY.
01:51:43IT IS A COST IN TIME AS WELL.
01:51:47THEY HAVE BEEN SO CONSUMED BY THIS, THEY HAVEN'T PAID
01:51:51ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY NEED TO
01:51:54WORRY ABOUT. CHINA. CHINA CAN TAKE AN IDEA FROM A
01:51:58SALES FLOOR IN 18 MONTHS.
01:52:01NORTH AMERICAN AUTOMAKERS ARE
01:52:03FOCUSED ON THE WRONG THING,
01:52:06TARIFFS INSTEAD OF COMPETITION. >> THEY'RE RIGHT.
01:52:09OF COURSE, THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A WARNING TO OTTAWA.
01:52:12IF THEY'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO
01:52:15FOCUS ON CHINA, FOCUS LESS ON
01:52:19TARIFFS THAT HAVE NO RETURN ON INVESTMENT, THEY'RE GOING TO
01:52:22TAKE A HARDER LOOK AT WHAT
01:52:24PARTNERS IN MEXICO AND CANADA ARE DOING WITH CHINA.
01:52:28WE'RE FLIRTING WITH LETTING THEM
01:52:29INTO A MARKET WHILE WE'RE TRYING
01:52:32TO REGAIN ACCESS TO THE U.S.
01:52:35MARKET.
01:52:36IN THE END, IT ISN'T JUST IN MICHIGAN.
01:52:40ALL DOWN THE U.S. SOUTHEAST
01:52:42WHERE THEY MAKE CARS, THIS PAST
01:52:45SUMMER I SPENT TIME WITH THE
01:52:48GOVERNOR OF CAROLINA WHO IS THE
01:52:50ANY SENATOR THERE.
01:52:53HE HAD AN INVESTMENT FROM
01:52:56VinFAST A VIETNAMESE AUTOMAKER.
01:53:06VOICE ON THE SENATE FLOOR TO SAY
01:53:08WE HAVE HURT OURSELVES. WE'RE HURTING OURSELVES.
01:53:12THE CHINESE DON'T CARE. THEY HAVE BEEN LAUGHING AT THEIR FORTUNE HERE.
01:53:15CANADA WILL HAVE TO REALLY PUT
01:53:22THEIR CARDS IN OKAY, LOOK, WE'RE GOING TO REGAIN ACCESS HERE.
01:53:26WE NEED TO REMEMBER WHERE OUR FRIENDS ARE.
01:53:28AND THAT'S NOT, HEY, ARE FRIENDS ARE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
01:53:32TOYOTA IS HAEMORRHAGING MONEY IN THE U.S.
01:53:36HONDA IS HAEMORRHAGING MONEY IN
01:53:40OHIO. THEY'RE OUR FRIENDS.
01:53:56SENSE.
01:53:56THANK YOU VERY MUCH, FLAVIO.
01:54:05THE DEMOCRAT WINNING. SOMETHING INTERESTING.
01:54:08SHE PROPOSED DURING THE CAMPAIGN
01:54:10THAT MICHIGAN NEGOTIATE A
01:54:13SEPARATE AGREEMENT CANADA ON
01:54:19TRADE.
01:54:24COULD THAT ACTUALLY HAPPEN?
01:54:25>> AS YOU HAVE TALKED ABOUT ALL
01:54:28MORNING, THE ISSUE THAT DROVE
01:54:30THIS ELECTION WAS AFFORDABILITY.
01:54:38LAWYERS DON'T DISCRIMINATE WHO THEY'RE LOOKING TO TO SOLVE THAT
01:54:41PROBLEM. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR STATE
01:54:43GOVERNOR, THEY DON'T CARE.
01:54:49IT BECAME ONE OF THE DEBATES.
01:54:52SHE BROUGHT UP THE OF A SUB
01:54:55NATIONAL AGREEMENT WITH MICHIGAN
01:54:58AND MAYBE ONTARIO.
01:54:59IT CAUGHT PEOPLE BY SURPRISE.
01:55:05I HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT THAT.
01:55:07THAT MAY BE A GOOD IDEA.
01:55:11>> WHAT DOES IT PRODUCE?
01:55:15CAN IT LOWER TARIFFS?
01:55:17>> THAT'S RIGHT, THEY HAS SAID
01:55:19I'M GOING TO TRY TO DO IT.
01:55:24IF IT DOESN'T PRODUCE ANYTHING,
01:55:26WHAT GOOD IS IT? SHE HAS BEEN -- I DON'T WANT TO
01:55:30SAY CRITICIZED, ONE OF HER P
01:55:35PREDECESSORS QUESTIONED WHETHER
01:55:41OR NOT THERE WAS MOVEMENT ON THE
01:55:44BIG ISSUE OF AFFORDABILITY. IT SOUNDS GREAT.
01:55:47CAN IT BE NEGOTIATED.
01:56:06CANADA WITHIN VIEW ON THIS
01:56:09HAPPEN RAINY DAY.
01:56:14WHAT IT MEANS FOR DONALD TRUMP.
01:56:17A LAME DUCK PRESIDENT. WE WILL SEE THE BEGINNINGS OF
01:56:21EFFORTS TO REPLACE HIM IN TWO
01:56:26YEARS' TIME IN THE PRESIDENTIAL
01:56:27RACE GETS GOING ANEW.
02:00:27[♪♪] >> David: GOOD WITNESS MORNING. I'M DAVID COMMON.
02:00:30DONALD TRUMP AND HIS REPUBLICANS HAVE LOST CONGRESS
02:00:33TO THE DEMOCRATS. TRUMP'S TRADE WAR IN CANADA ONE
02:00:36OF THE BIG REASONS. THE REPUBLICANS' LOSS IS
02:00:40HISTORY-MAKE AND NOT OVER YET.
02:00:42TRUMP NOW POLITICALLY WEAKER THAN HE HAS BEEN SINCE HIS
02:00:45RETURN TO THE WHITE HOUSE. THAT MIGHT CREATE AN OPENING
02:00:48FOR AT WITH TO MAKE A TRADE DEAL.
02:00:50>> WE HAVE FIVE WORDS FOR THE
02:00:53AMERICAN PEOPLE.
02:00:56RELIEF IS ON THE WAY. >> David: THE RESULTS MINIMIZE
02:01:00TRUMP'S POWER FOR THE FINAL TWO
02:01:04YEARS IN OFFICE. EVERYTHING IS BIGGER IN TEXAS
02:01:07INCLUDING THIS POLITICAL UPSET.
02:01:09DEMOCRATS BREAK A 32-YEAR
02:01:14REPUBLICAN STRANGLEHOLD ON STATE-WISE OFFICES.
02:01:17>> ALWAYS BET ON THE UNDERDOG.
02:01:19WE BUILT A MOVEMENT UNLIKE ANY
02:01:23THIS STATEMENT HAS EVER SEEN. DEMOCRATS FLIP BOTH SENATE AND
02:01:26GOVERNOR SEATS IN TEXAS. LOOKING AT WHERE ELSE THEY MADE
02:01:30SURPRISING AND HISTORIC GAINS.
02:01:34WITH TRUMP WOUNDED IS IT NOW
02:01:36EASIER OR HARDER FOR CANADA TO NEGOTIATE A TRADE DEAL.
02:01:40>> HE STILL HAS THE POWER TO
02:01:44SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGE CANADA'S ECONOMY. WILL CONGRESS BE ABLE TO ROLL
02:01:48BACK TRUMP'S TARIFFS? WHAT THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE
02:01:51MEANS FOR CANADA'S GAME PLAN
02:01:55AND TIME LINE.
02:01:58A HUGE BLUE WAVE ROLLING TO
02:02:00CONGRESS THIS MORNING AND HARD
02:02:05TOOVERESTIMATE ITS SIZE AND SIGNIFICANCE. DEMOCRATS WILL TAKE CONTROL OF
02:02:08THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE.
02:02:10VOTERS ARE MAKING DONALD TRUMP PAY A HISTORIC PRICE BLAMING
02:02:14THEIR HIGHER COST OF LIVING
02:02:16WITH HIS THE TARIFF FIGHT WITH
02:02:18CANADA AND THE WORLD.
02:02:21VOTERS ARE ANGRY AND PAYING MORE FOR FOOD, GAS AND
02:02:25ESSENTIALS AND PUNISHING TRUMP FOR FAILING TO DO WHAT HE
02:02:28PROMISED, BRING DOWN THOSE PRICES.
02:02:30DEMOCRAT ALSO TAKE CONTROL OF
02:02:32CONGRESS COME JANUARY EASILY GAINING THE THREE SEATS THEY
02:02:36NEEDED TO WIN THE HOUSE, THOUGH IT COULD TAKE DAYS BEFORE ALL
02:02:39THE RACES ARE DECIDED. THE DEMOCRATS ARE ON TRACK FOR
02:02:42A BIGGER HOUSE MAJORITY THAN EXPECTED BUT IT IS THE SENATE
02:02:45WHERE THE DEMOCRATS ARE MAKING
02:02:49A LANDMARK BREAKTHROUGH WINNING SEVEN SEATS FROM THE
02:02:53REPUBLICAN, ALL OF THEM
02:02:57TOSS-UPS THAT WENT THEIR WAY. KEY BATTLEGROUND OF THE SENATE
02:03:00FIGHT, RIGHT HERE IN MICHIGAN, THE FRONTLINE IN THE TRADE WAR
02:03:04WHERE TRUMP'S TARIFFS ARE
02:03:07COSTING DETROIT BIG THREE AUTOMAKERS BILLIONS RAISING
02:03:10FEARS ABOUT JOBS.
02:03:11THE DEMOCRAT, ABDUL EL-SAYED
02:03:19WINS THIS STATE.
02:03:22>> MICHIGAN, WE DID IT!
02:03:29[Cheering and applause] >> THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE POINTING TO MY NAME AND MY FAITH.
02:03:32THAT'S NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GAS.
02:03:35NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GROCERIES.
02:03:39NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T SEE A DOCTOR.
02:03:42WE BUILT A MOVEMENT. GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE BY THE
02:03:45PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE. WE SHOWED THAT IN A BATTLE
02:03:49BETWEEN THE MONEY AND THE MANY
02:03:50THAT THE MANY REALLY CAN WIN
02:03:57[Cheering and applause] >> David: EL-SAYED WAS SO
02:04:00EFFECTIVE EVEN HIS REPUBLICAN
02:04:02OPPONENT CAME OUT AGAINST IT
02:04:05SAYING CANADA IS NOT THE ENEMY.
02:04:09HE NOT OPPOSED TO TARIFFS IN
02:04:12PRINCIPLE BUT THINKS THEY SHOULD BE TARGETED.
02:04:16EL-SAYED COULD HAVE AN EARLY OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOMETHING
02:04:18ABOUT THOSE TARIFFS BECAUSE OREGON SENATOR SAYS DEMOCRATS
02:04:22COULD USE THEIR MAJORITY TO TRY
02:04:23TO END TRUMP'S TRADE WAR.
02:04:28TARIFFS ON CANADA HURT BOTH
02:04:29VOTERS IN CANADA AND IN THE U.S.
02:04:32THAT LEGISLATION THOUGH WOULD
02:04:35LIKELY FACE A VETO FROM TRUFFLEP.
02:04:38DEMOCRATS WILL NOT HAVE A
02:04:44VETO-PROOF SUPER MAJORITY.
02:04:48JAMES BLANCHARD, A FORMER GOVERNOR OF MICHIGAN, ALSO
02:04:52FORMER AMBASSADOR TO CANADA JOINS US NOW.
02:04:55SIR, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING.
02:04:56A GREAT NIGHT, A GREAT DAY!
02:05:01>> David: TELL ME ABOUT THAT
02:05:03BECAUSE IT IS A HISTORIC ONE
02:05:06WITH ALMOST UNTHINKABLE SEA
02:05:08CHANGES IN ONCE RED STATES,
02:05:11SOLIDLY RED STATES GOING BLUE. WHAT DOES THAT SIGNAL TO YOU?
02:05:14>> LIKE A WATERGATE LANDSLIDE
02:05:18WHICH HAPPENS 52 YEARS AGO.
02:05:2052 YEARS AGO I WAS ELECTED TO
02:05:25THE CONGRESS. A TOTAL REPUDIATION OF DONALD
02:05:28TRUMP AND HIS TARIFFS, HIS WAR
02:05:30ON IRAN, HIS CORRUPTION, HIS
02:05:33VANITY AND THE COST OF LIVING OF COURSE STILL DOMINATED
02:05:37EVERYTHING. FOOD, GASOLINE, DIESEL.
02:05:40I MIGHT ALSO ADD OUR CANDIDATE
02:05:42FOR GOVERNOR JOCELYN BENSON WHO
02:05:44HANDILY MADE TARIFFS WITH TRADE
02:05:46A MUCH BIGGER ISSUE THAN EL-SAYED DID JUST SO YOU KNOW THAT.
02:05:50MOST OF THE GOVERNORS IN AMERICA HAVE BEEN WORRIED ABOUT
02:05:52THE TARIFFS BADLY BECAUSE THEIR
02:05:57LARGEST TRADING PARTNER IS CANADA. THERE WILL BE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
02:06:01END THE TARIFFS THROUGH CONGRESS. CONGRESS HAS THE POWER.
02:06:05THEY'RE THE ONES THAT HAVE THE
02:06:06POWER TO LEVY TARIFFS, NOT THE PRESIDENT.
02:06:10I THINK SOMETHING CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THE MOOD HAS ALWAYS
02:06:13BEEN PRO-CANADA BASICALLY AND DON'T PUNISH OUR BEST TRADING
02:06:17PARTNER, FRIEND AND NEIGHBOUR. I'M EXCITED ABOUT THAT AND ALSO
02:06:20A LOT OF NEW GOVERNORS.
02:06:27>> David: YES, DONALD TRUMP FLIP-FLOPPED ON HIS OWN
02:06:30POSITIONS BEFORE, BUT TARIFFS
02:06:33ARE HIS SIGNATURE ECONOMIC POLICY.
02:06:36WHY WOULD HE NOT VETO A DEMOCRATIC ATTEMPT TO GET RID
02:06:39OF THEM? >> HE MIGHT. HE MIGHT NOT. I DON'T -- THE PEOPLE THAT ARE
02:06:43CLOSEST TO TRUMP WHO REALLY
02:06:44KNOW HIM SAY HE DOESN'T REALLY
02:06:48HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS.
02:06:52NOT REALLY A REPUBLICAN, CLEARLY NOT A DEMOCRAT.
02:06:55HE DOESN'T HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS OR PHILOSOPHY.
02:06:59HE HAS NEEDS. IN THIS CASE HIS NEED MAY BE TO
02:07:02HELP REDUCE THE COST OF LIVING FOR EVERYBODY.
02:07:05AND GET ALONG WITH CONGRESS.
02:07:07BY THE WAY, CONGRESS COULD
02:07:09OVERRIDE A VETO SO WE MIGHT GET
02:07:12ENOUGH SUPPORT THERE TO DO THAT.
02:07:14I'M OPTIMISTIC ABOUT MOVING AHEAD.
02:07:17I'M OPTIMISTIC ABOUT IMPROVING
02:07:20U.S.-CANADA RELATIONS.
02:07:24THIS IS A HUGE -- THIS IS A --
02:07:49ALSO A TOTAL REPUDIATION OF TRUMP.
02:07:52THERE WAS NO ONE ISSUE OR NO ONE CANDIDATE THAT DOMINATED REALLY.
02:07:55I MEAN, COST OF LIVING BUT WE'VE HAD THAT BEFORE.
02:07:59REALLY SENDING A -- AMERICA WOKE UP YESTERDAY AND DID THE
02:08:02RIGHT THING AND I'M SO HAPPY
02:08:05AND I HOPE ALL OF YOUR VIEWERS
02:08:07WHO HAVE BEEN WORRIED ABOUT OUR
02:08:09VOTERS AND WONDERING WHAT IN
02:08:12THE HELL THEY'RE DOING HERE
02:08:13REALIZED THEY DID WAKE UP AND THEY UNDERSTAND CHANGE IS
02:08:17NEEDED FOR THE FUTURE.
02:08:20A REALLY GOOD THING FOR CANADA.
02:08:22I THINK OUR NATO ALLIES,
02:08:25UKRAINE, GREENLAND AND DENMARK SO THIS IS REALLY GOOD.
02:08:29NOT JUST FOR THE PEOPLE OF
02:08:34MICHIGAN HAPPILY AND ONTARIO,
02:08:35OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR BUT THE
02:08:41WORLD. >> JAMES BLANCHARD, VERY GOOD TO GET YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS
02:08:44HISTORIC MORNING. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
02:08:46>> THANK YOU.
02:08:49HAVE A GREAT DAY! >> David: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
02:08:53BRINGING BACK DAVID BACK IN THE CONVERSATION WITH ME IN
02:08:57MICHIGAN. A FEW THINGS TO TALK ABOUT
02:09:00HEREIN INCLUDING WHAT DEMOCRATS
02:09:04ARE TAKING POWER HERE BECAUSE THE PARTY IS NOT UNIFIED.
02:09:07THERE'S REAL DIFFERENCES.
02:09:09YOU HAVE THE PROGRESSIVE WING,
02:09:14THE ABDUL EL-SAYED. THERE ARE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO THEY ARE.
02:09:17WHO IS TAKING POWER HERE?
02:09:22>> THAT PROGRESSIVE WING OF THE PARTY IS GOING TO HAVE
02:09:25TREMENDOUS POWER MOVING FORWARD
02:09:27BECAUSE THEY ARE THE -- THE
02:09:30ESTABLISHMENT DEMOCRATS WHO
02:09:31STILL OUTNUMBER THE PROGRESSIVE
02:09:35WING IN TERMS OF TRUE NUMBERS.
02:09:41THE DEMOCRATS AREN'T GOING TO
02:09:42BE ABLE TO PAS ANYTHING WITHOUT
02:09:45THOSE PROGRESS SIEVES, RIGHT? EVEN IF IT'S NOT A MATTER OF
02:09:49NUMBER, IT'S A MATTER OF
02:09:52RHETORIC WHEN THERE'S A VOTE COMING UP MAYBE ABOUT A BILL
02:09:55THAT DOESN'T GO FAR ENOUGH IN
02:09:56THE EYES OF THE PROGRESSIVES.
02:10:01THEY WILL I THINK RIGHTLY SO
02:10:02SAY, HEY, LOOK, WE NEED TO BE A
02:10:06BIGGER PART OF THIS BECAUSE WE
02:10:09HELPED YOU MAKE THIS MAJORITY.
02:10:11EL-SAYED INJECTED ENTHUSIASM INTO VOTERS ON THE DEMOCRATIC
02:10:14SIDE OF THE AISLE WHO REALLY
02:10:19DID HELP DEMOCRATS GAIN THIS
02:10:42REPEATEDLY AND NOT JUST FOR TRUMP.
02:10:46IS IT NOW A THING OF THE PAST OR A MODEL THAT HAS BEEN PROVEN
02:10:49AND WILL BE USED AGAIN?
02:10:51>> IT'S WORKED AND IT HAS
02:10:54BROUGHT REPUBLICANS SUCCESS IN
02:10:57PLACES LIKE MICHIGAN THAT THEY HAD NOT SEEN AT THE PRESS DEN
02:11:00SHALL LEVEL IN DECADES, RIGHT? >> HE WON THE STATE JUST TWO
02:11:04YEARS AGO. >> HE DID. HE WON IT IN 2016 AND OTHER
02:11:08STATE THAT ARE LIKE MICHIGAN IN THE MIDWEST.
02:11:11RUST BELT STATES, OHIO,
02:11:14PENNSYLVANIA, WISCONSIN.
02:11:17HE'S GOT A CLAIM TO SAY, HEY,
02:11:19LOOK, YOU BETTER NOT MOVE ON
02:11:23FROM ME JUST YET BECAUSE I
02:11:24HELPED YOU GET TO WHERE WE ARE
02:11:28THAT YOU COULDN'T DO REGULAR OLD REPUBLICANS.
02:11:31YOU BETTER PAY ATTENTION TO
02:11:33THIS, HOWEVER, WE SEE IN THESE
02:11:37MIDTERMS BOTH IN 2026 AND IN
02:11:402018, HIS FIRST MIDTERM,
02:11:43DEMOCRATIC GAINS. I THINK IN FACT DEMOCRAT ALSO
02:11:45END UP GAINING MORE SEATS IN 2018 IN THE HOUSE OF
02:11:48REPRESENTATIVES THAN THEY WILL NOW. REPUBLICANS ARE BETWEEN A ROCK
02:11:52AND A HARD PLACE BECAUSE WHILE
02:11:53THEY NEED THE TRUMP VOTERS TO
02:11:56CONTINUE THAT COALITION THAT
02:11:58THEY CAN -- THEY CAN RETURN TO
02:12:01MAYBE, THEY ALSO NEED TO BE ABLE TO BET THE FOLKS THAT
02:12:05AREN'T HIGH ON TRUMP.
02:12:06MAYBE WANT TO MOVE ON AND ARE
02:12:10LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DIRECT EVEN FROM THE REPUBLICANS. >> David: I APPRECIATE YOU
02:12:13BEING WITH US OVER THE COURSE OF THE MORNING. I'M GOING TO HOLDUP MY HAND AND
02:12:17ASK YOU, WHEN I GET TO THE
02:12:19RIGHT COUNTDOWN OF HOW MANY HOURS OF SLEEP YOU'VE HAD --
02:12:23I'M AT FIVE NOW. >> STOP. >> David: I'M RIGHT AROUND
02:12:27THAT, TOO. BEEN A BIG NIGHT, A LATE NIGHT
02:12:31AND EARLY MORNING.
02:12:33OUR TSN IN CANADA NOW TURN TO THE TRADE TALKS.
02:12:36THE PRIME MINISTER SUGGESTED
02:12:38HE'S IN NO RUSH TO TAKE A TRADE DEAL WITH THE CURRENT
02:12:42ADMINISTRATION. HE COULD WAIT POTENTIALLY FOR DONALD TRUMP TO LEAVE HOUSE.
02:12:46OLIVIA IS LOOKING AT WHAT THE
02:12:47RESULTS COULD MEAN FOR CANADA'S
02:12:51RELATIONSHIP WITH THE U.S.
02:12:53>> EVEN THOUGH THERE'S BEEN A
02:12:55BLUE TSUNAMI IN THE U.S., DONALD TRUMP REMAINS U.S. PRESIDENT.
02:12:59GOING FORWARD PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY STILL HAS TO DEAL WITH TRUMP WHEN IT COMES TO
02:13:03ANYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH CANADA ABOUT THE U.S. AND HE
02:13:07CERTAINLY HAS TO NEGOTIATE WITH TRUMP WHEN IT COMES TO WORKING
02:13:10OUT A NEW TRADE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES WHICH IS STILL SOMETHING THAT CANADA
02:13:14WOULD LIKE TO SEE. NOW, WE HAVEN'T HEARD YET --
02:13:17YET HEARD FROM THE PRIME MINISTER HIMSELF ABOUT THE MIDTERM RESULTS.
02:13:21CARNEY IS EXPECTED TO ATTEND THE LIBERAL CAUCUS MEETING THIS
02:13:24MORNING IN OTTAWA ON PARLIAMENT HILL SO IT IS POSSIBLE WE MIGHT
02:13:27HEAR FROM THE PRIME MINISTER THEN. IN THE MEANTIME, WE HAVE
02:13:30REACTION TO BRING TO YOU FROM MANITOBA'S PREMIER, THE FIRST
02:13:34TO REACT TO THE MIDTERM RESULTS
02:13:36FROM CANADA'S PREMIERS.
02:13:38HE TOOK TO X TO POST A
02:13:41STATEMENT IN WHICH I READ.
02:13:44CONGRATS, DEMOCRATS FOR WINNING CONGRESS.
02:13:48STOP THE TRUMP TARIFFS TO LOWER
02:13:50COSTS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA. IT'S UNCLEAR WHETHER TRUMP WILL
02:13:53DO ANY OF THOSE TWO THINGS THAT
02:13:57KINEW WANTS BUT WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN RECENT DAYS IS TRUMP
02:14:08DEAL BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES,
02:14:10A NEW TRADE DEAL THAT COULD BE POTENTIALLY MORE FAVOURABLE FOR CANADA.
02:14:14WE HEARD FROM THE PRIME MINISTER YESTERDAY THAT THE
02:14:17U.S. IS ASKING FOR LESS AND OFFERING MORE SO IT DOES SEEM
02:14:21LIKE BOTH SIDES ARE HEATED
02:14:25TOWARDS MORE POSITIVE DIRECTION, BUT IT STILL SEEMS
02:14:28THAT TARIFFS WOULD -- ARE STILL ON THE TABLE HERE.
02:14:31WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT A SITUATION YET IN WHICH ALL
02:14:35TARIFFS WOULD BE ELIMINATED AGAINST CANADA.
02:14:37SO WE'RE STILL IN A SITUATION WHERE THERE COULD BE A BASELINE
02:14:41TARIFFS AND OF COURSE THE CANADIAN SIDE WANT TO SEE THOSE
02:14:43TARIFFS LOWERED AS MUCH AS
02:14:45POSSIBLE, BETTER YET ELIMINATED COMPLETELY.
02:14:49THAT IS THE GOAL FOR CANADA MOVING FORWARD AND YOU CAN BET THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL USE
02:14:53THE MIDTERM RESULTS AS LEVERAGE TO NEGOTIATE THE BEST DEAL
02:14:56POSSIBLE FOR THIS COUNTRY.
02:15:01>> David: OLIVIA, YOU KNOW, SOME VERSION OF TRADE TALKS
02:15:04HAVE BEEN HAPPENING IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS.
02:15:08DOES ANYTHING NOW CHANGE IN TERMS OF THE CARNEY
02:15:12GOVERNMENT'S APPROACH TO THOSE KINDS OF TALKS?
02:15:14>> WELL, THE TALKS HAVE BEEN RAMPING UP.
02:15:17THAT'S WHAT WE'VE HEARD FROM THE CANADIAN SIDE AND THE
02:15:20AMERICAN SIDE AND WE EXPECT THAT TO KONG, DAVID.
02:15:24AGAIN, FOR THE CANADIAN SIDE TO POINT TO THE MIDTERM RESULTS AS
02:15:28PROOF THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
02:15:30DO NOT LIKE THIS TRADE WAR WITH CANADA.
02:15:33THAT TARIFFS ACTUALLY HURT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND DRIVE UP
02:15:36THE COST OF LIVING IN THE U.S.
02:15:38SO YOU CAN BET THAT THE CANADIAN SIDE WILL CONTINUE TO
02:15:41POINT TO THAT AND TRY TO USE THAT TO GET A MORE FAVOURABLE
02:15:45DEAL FOR CANADA AND TO RESTORE
02:15:47FREE TRADE BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES. IT'S UNCLEAR THOUGH WHAT WILL
02:15:51HAPPEN IN CONGRESS AND SENATE BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THE
02:15:55DEMOCRATS MAY TRY TO REVERSE SOME OF TRUMP'S TARIFFS
02:15:58POLICIES, THAT'S CERTAINLY THE HOPE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
02:16:00HERE, IT'S NOT EXACTLY CLEAR WHERE THE DEMOCRATS STAND ON
02:16:03ALL OF THIS, IF THEY WANT TO SEE TARIFFS COMPLETELY
02:16:07ELIMINATED AGAINST CANADA AND KEEP IN MIND THE PRESIDENT
02:16:10MAINTAINS A VETO AS WELL AND HAS BOASTED ABOUT THIS IN
02:16:13INTERVIEWS FOLLOWING THE MIDTERM RESULTS AS WELL.
02:16:15HIS ABILITY TO USE THIS VETO.
02:16:18LET'S TAKE A LISTEN TOER
02:16:27KIRSTEN HILLMAN.
02:16:31>> I THINK THIS IS A TIME TO
02:16:35OBSERVE, ONE, WHAT THE NEW CONGRESS IS SAYING, WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
02:16:38ARE THEY TABLING LEGISLATION WITHIN 100 HOURS.
02:16:42WHAT DOES THAT SAY? WHAT IS THIS TARIFF LEGISLATION?
02:16:45THERE WILL BE DEVILS IN THE
02:16:50DETAILS. >> Reporter: NO MATTER WHAT
02:16:52HAPPENSES, THE WORK THAT THE PRIME MINISTER IS TO DIVERSIFY
02:16:56CANADA'S TRADING RELATIONSHIPS AND STRENGTHEN PARTNERSHIPS
02:16:59WITH OTHER COUNTRIES, THAT WILL CONTINUE NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS
02:17:03SOUTH OF THE BORDER AND EVEN IF CANADA LAND AS NEW TRADE DEAL
02:17:07WITH THE U.S. IN THE COMING WEEKS AND MONTHS, YOU CAN BET
02:17:10THAT WORK WILL CONTINUE.
02:17:13>> David: CERTAINLY WILL. OLIVIA, THANK YOU.
02:17:15IT HAS BEEN GENERATIONS SINCE ANYONE COULD SAY TEXAS IS
02:17:18SENDING A DEMOCRAT TO THE SENATE.
02:17:21GYMS TALARICO BECOMES THE FIRST
02:17:25SINCE THE 1980s.
02:17:26>> THIS WIN IS FOR EVERY TEXAN
02:17:30WHOEVER WONDERED IF ANYONE IS LISTENING. I HEARD YOU.
02:17:34WE HEARD YOU AND TONIGHT THE WORLD HEARS YOU.
02:17:36[Cheering and applause]
02:17:40>> David: HE DEFEATED
02:17:41REPUBLICAN KEN PAXTON, HAND
02:17:45PICKED BY TRUMP, IN WHAT'S BEING CALLED THE MOST EXPENSIVE
02:17:48SENATE RACE IN HISTORY. COST MORE THAN HALF A BILLION DOLLARS.
02:17:52A SEISMIC POLITICAL SHIFT FOR
02:17:54THE SECOND MOST POPULIST STATE UPENDING MORE THAN THREE
02:17:58DECADES OF REPUBLICAN CONTROL IN TEXAS.
02:18:01THAT BLUE SWEEP DIDN'T STOP THERE.
02:18:03THE STATE ELECTED A DEMOCRATIC
02:18:08GOVERNOR. OUTSIDE OF CITY HALL IN AUSTIN.
02:18:11STEVE, LOSING A LONG RED STATE
02:18:13LIKE TEXAS CAN ONLY BE SEEN AS
02:18:16A MAJOR REPUDIATION OF TRUMP. >> IT IS.
02:18:19LISTEN, I THINK IT'S A REPUDIATION OF TRUMP IN MANY
02:18:22STATES BUT PARTICULARLY HERE IN TEXAS. THIS STATE HAS CALLED RUBY RED
02:18:25FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. THE LAST TIME ANY DEMOCRAT WON
02:18:28ANY STATEWIDE OFFICE, FOREBET THE SENATE, ANY STATEWIDE
02:18:32OFFICE WAS 1994. WELL, LAST NIGHT DEMOCRATS WON
02:18:35THE GOVERNOR'S RACE, THE SENATE
02:18:38RACE, LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR, ATTORNEY GENERAL AND A VERY
02:18:41IMPORTANT POSITION HERE IN
02:18:44TEXAS, RAILROAD COMMISSIONER.
02:18:49GINA JINAHOSA WINS.
02:18:56UP TO $600 MILLION WAS SPENT ON
02:19:00THIS RACE AND HE SPOKE TO HIS
02:19:01ADORING SUPPORTERS HERE IN AUSTIN LAST NIGHT.
02:19:05>> WE SAW IT IN THIS RACE.
02:19:08WE SAW IT IN EVERY BILLIONAIRE
02:19:11FUNDED ATTACK AD. THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP DIVIDE US
02:19:15BY PARTY, BY RACE, BY GENDER,
02:19:17BY RELIGION, BY CULTURE. WE DON'T NOTICE THEY'RE PICKING
02:19:20OUR POCKETS.
02:19:22THEY ARE DEFUNDING OUR SCHOOLS.
02:19:25THEY ARE GUTTING OUR HEALTHCARE.
02:19:29TONIGHT WE SENT A CRYSTAL CLEAR MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE AT THE
02:19:32TOP. WE WILL NOT BE CONQUERED!
02:19:36>> Reporter: OF COURSE MANY OF US, MYSELF INCLUDED, THOUGHT
02:19:39THIS WOULD BE A MUCH CLOSER RACE. AS IT TURNS OUT HE WINS BY A
02:19:43COMFORTABLE MARGIN. STILL COUNTING THE FINAL VOTES.
02:19:46MORE THAN 90% OF THE BALLOTED COUNTED.
02:19:49HE HAS 55% OF THE VOTE. MORE THAN A MILLION VOTES MORE
02:19:53THAN HIS OPPONENT KEN PAXTON, THE HAND PICKED CHOICE OF
02:19:56DONALD TRUMP THAT WILL BE AND LICESED IN THE FUTURE.
02:19:59MANY PEOPLE FEEL THE CURRENT SENATOR, LONG TIME REPUBLICAN SENATOR WOULD HAVE BEEN A
02:20:03BETTER CHOICE AND MORE SUCCESSFUL.
02:20:07PAXTON WHO SAYS THE 2020
02:20:10ELECTION WAS NOT SUBSTANTIATED. HE DID NOT CLAIM THAT THE VOTE
02:20:13WAS RIGGED LAST NIGHT.
02:20:14THIS WAS PART OF HIS CONCESSION SPEECH.
02:20:18>> LET ME START OFF BY
02:20:21CONGRATULATING JAMES TALARICO.
02:20:28I WILL PRAY FOR HIM AND HE WILL
02:20:31BE GOOD FOR THIS GREAT STATE OF TEXAS. THIS IS A GREAT STATE.
02:20:34GREAT PEOPLE.
02:20:35I TRIED BY BEST TO DO GOOD FOR TEXAS.
02:20:39>> TEXAS NOW BEGINS A NEW POLITICAL ERA.
02:20:42MANY YEARS AGO DEMOCRATS DID DO WELL HERE.
02:20:45SUCH A LONG TIME. THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1994 THAT
02:20:49A DEMOCRAT, AND THIS TIME MANY
02:20:51DEMOCRATS, WIN BATTLES FOR
02:20:53STATEWIDE OFFICE.
02:20:58>> David: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT
02:21:00WHAT THIS SAYS ABOUT MAGA.
02:21:03DAVID DULIO IS HERE IN MICHIGAN WITH ME.
02:21:07THIS IN SOME WAYS IS A DEPARTURE FOR A POLITICAL
02:21:11APPROACH THAT HAS WORKED FOR
02:21:13THE REPUBLICANS REPEATEDLY. WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
02:21:16IS IT DEAD.
02:21:17REBORN IN A PU -- NEW
02:21:22INCARCERATION? >> LIKE MOST THINGS LIKE THIS,
02:21:25IT WILL PROBABLY ADJUST. THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WHO WANT
02:21:28TO BE LIKE DONALD TRUMP BUT TRUMP IS A SINGULAR CHARACTER.
02:21:32AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK.
02:21:34HARD TO REPLACE TRUMP ONCE HE LEAVES OFFICE IN A COUPLE OF
02:21:38YEARS. LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT I THINK
02:21:41MIGHT BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE ELECTION NOT JUST
02:21:44HERE IN TEXAS BUT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY.
02:21:47THE LATINO VOTE.
02:21:49THE LATINO VOTE TWO YEARS AGO
02:21:52WAS MOSTLY GOING FOR DEMOCRATS FOR DECADES SWITCHING OVER TO
02:21:56REPUBLICANS. A KEY PART OF TRUMP'S VICTORY IN 2024.
02:21:59THE REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN 2024.
02:22:05REMEMBER JAMES CARVILLE SAYS
02:22:07IT'S THE MEAN, STUPID.
02:22:10FOR THE LATINOS A COUPLE OF
02:22:13YEARS AGO IT WAS THE ECONOMY, STUPID.
02:22:16MANY LATINOS WERE BOTHERED BY THE BRUTALITY OF THE ICE
02:22:19IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT SO THAT HURT TRUMP AS WELL.
02:22:23TARIFFS. GOING AGAINST ALLIES. UKRAINE, WESTERN EUROPE AND
02:22:26YES, EVEN CANADA. IT DEPENDED ON WHO YOU WERE.
02:22:30YOU HAD YOUR PICK OF REASON TO VOTE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP.
02:22:32WE'RE SEEING THAT REFLECTED THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY TODAY.
02:22:35AGAIN, NOW UP TO THE DEMOCRATS
02:22:39TO FIND A MESSAGE THAT WILL WORK TO GET THEM RE'S ELECTED
02:22:43TO MAKE LEGISLATION THROUGH THAT PEOPLE WILL FEEL HAS BENEFITTED THEM.
02:22:46THAT'S THE TRICKY PART. RIGHT NOW THEY'VE GOTTEN
02:22:49THROUGH THE FIRST HURTLE, INTO OFFICE AND WHAT'S USUALLY THE
02:22:53TOUGHEST BATTLE GOVERNING. >> NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT.
02:22:57STEVE FUTTERMAN, THANK YOU.
02:23:00THE BLUE WAVE EXTENDING BEYOND THIS STATE HERE IN MICHIGAN TO
02:23:04NEIGHBOURING OHIO. IT HAS NOW'S ELECTED ITS FIRST
02:23:07EVER WOMAN GOVERNOR.
02:23:09DEMOCRAT AMY ACTON BEAT OUT
02:23:15RAMASWAMY. KATIE NICHOLSON JOINING US FROM COLUMBUS.
02:23:19THIS IS A CONTEST THAT BECAME PROM CONNECT AND MANY PEOPLE
02:23:22GOT TO KNOW ABOUT IT BECAUSE OF
02:23:25AN UGLY ATTACK AD. >> Reporter: A SPECTACULAR
02:23:29BACKFIRE FROM THE RAMASWAMMY
02:23:33CAMPAIGN AND ONE THAT RESONATED
02:23:34WITH VOTERS BUT NOT IN THE WAY
02:23:38HE INTENDED.
02:23:41THAT LEVEL OF VITRIOL REALLY
02:23:42HIT PEOPLE AND TURNED THEM OFF
02:23:45THE RAMASWAMY CAMPAIGN AND POTENTIALLY OTHER REPUBLICANS
02:23:48DOWN BALLOT. THIS WAS AN ATTACK AD IN WHICH
02:24:16SHE CALLED ACTON A LIAR AND
02:24:19URGED PEOPLE NOT TO VOTE FOR HER.
02:24:23THAT CITED A LOT OF ANGER EVEN WITH THE GOP.
02:24:26THE SENATE CANDIDATE SLAMMED THE AD.
02:24:43RAMASWAMY DID REFER TO THE TONE
02:24:44OF THE CAMPAIGN, ALTHOUGH HE
02:24:47DID SAY IT CAME FROM BOTH SIDES.
02:24:50A LITTLE BIT OF HIS CONCESSION SPEECH.
02:24:52>> IT WAS BITTER AT TIMES IN
02:24:55BOTH DIRECTIONS BUT THE TIME
02:24:58TOMORROW IS TO HOPEFULLY HAVE
02:24:59THROUGH HER LEADERSHIP BRING
02:25:03THIS STATE TOGETHER AND I HAVE
02:25:04HOPE AND CONFIDENCE SHE WILL DO
02:25:07WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BRING OHIO
02:25:11TOGETHER. >> BECAUSE OF YOU THIS STOPPED
02:25:13BEING JUST ANOTHER CAMPAIGN.
02:25:16IT BECAME A MOVEMENT.
02:25:18I AM SO GRATEFUL TO EVERY ONE
02:25:21OF YOU AND GOING TO BE ASKING
02:25:23MORE OF YOU YET. I HAVE A DEEP BELIEF IN THE
02:25:27RESILIENCE, THE GRIT AND THE KINDNESS OF OUR STATE.
02:25:31WOULDN'T BE HERE WITHOUT IT.
02:25:36OHIO, THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING
02:25:39AND BELIEVING IN ME.
02:25:41I TRUST AND BELIEVE IN YOU!
02:25:46>> Reporter: SO ONE OF THE INTERESTING THINGS THAT HAPPENED IS AFTER THIS AD CAME
02:25:50OUT THERE WAS AN OUTPOURING OF
02:25:53SUPPORT FOR ACTON.
02:25:55YOU CAN HEAR A LITTLE TONE OF THAT IN THE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH.
02:25:59PEOPLE WALKING UP TO HER AND WANTING TO HUG HER AND CONSOLE
02:26:03HER FOR THE WAY IN HER PAST TRAUMA WAS USED AND WEAPONIZED
02:26:07BY A -- BY A CAMPAIGN EVEN IF
02:26:08IT ENDED UP BEING A GRENADE
02:26:11THAT SORT OF INJURED THE
02:26:15RAMASWAMMY CAMPAIGN. THAT WAS ONE OF THE MOST
02:26:18STRIKING THINGS, DAVID. JUST HEARING PEOPLE TALK ABOUT
02:26:21THAT BEFORE THEY WOULD EVEN START TO TALK ABOUT THE OTHER
02:26:23ISSUES MOTIVATING THEM TO VOTE WHEN WE WOULD BE TALKING WITH THEM.
02:26:27THEY WOULD BRING UP THE TONE, BRING UP THAT AD AND THEN MAYBE
02:26:30THEY WOULD GET TO ISSUES LIKE
02:26:34AFFORDABILITY, THE TRADE WAR,
02:26:35THE WAR IN IRAN.
02:26:38>> YEAH, KATIE, WHETHER IT'S
02:26:40HERE IN MICHIGAN OR NEXT DOOR
02:26:42WHERE YOU ARE IN OHIO -- GETTING THE SAME WEATHER TODAY,
02:26:46BY THE WAY -- WE SEE HOUSE ACCENT NAT RACES THAT WERE
02:26:50TO-UPS THAT FLIPPED TO
02:26:54DEMOCRATS AND THEY WERE WHAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEMOCRATS
02:26:57NOW TAKING POWER IN BOTH
02:27:01HOUSES. >> YEAH.
02:27:04I MEAN THIS ONE WAS SO HOTLY
02:27:08CONTESTED. YOU HAD JOHN HUSTAD WAS PUT IN
02:27:12PLACE TO BASICALLY SIT OUT AND
02:27:14TAKE THE SEAT FROM J.D. VANCE,
02:27:18THE VICE-PRESIDENT.
02:27:20WE SAW AN ENORMOUS CAMPAIGN BY
02:27:24PRESIDENT TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE COMING TO THIS STATE SIX TIMES
02:27:27BETWEEN THEM OVER TWO MONTHS TRYING TO GET THEIR MAN BACK
02:27:30INTO THE SENATE. THIS WAS THE SECOND MOST EXPENSIVE SENATE CAMPAIGN IN
02:27:34THE COUNTRY. JUST BEHIND TEXAS.
02:27:37FOR ALL OF THAT THEY WERE
02:27:39UNABLE TO DO IT.
02:27:43THE BLUE WAVE PUSHED SHERROD BROWN.
02:27:46HE IS WELL LIKED, A CONGRESSMAN
02:27:49FOR DECADES AS WELL AS A
02:27:51SENATOR PREVIOUSLY UP UNTIL
02:27:572024. IT'S HE HAS THINGS THAT SHOULD HAVE STUCK WITH HIM.
02:28:01IF THIS IS AN ELECTION ABOUT
02:28:04CHANGE, BROWN IS SEEN AS MORE
02:28:06ESTABLISHMENT AND YET HE WAS
02:28:09ABLE TO TIE HIS OPPONENT
02:28:17HUSTED. THE RISE OF DATA CENTRES,
02:28:21ANOTHER THING PEOPLE TALK ABOUT UNPROMPTED ALL THE TIME AS A
02:28:25MOTIVATOR AND BROWN TIED HIS OPPONENT TO TRUMPIAN POLICIES
02:28:29AND DATA CENTRES.
02:28:31A LITTLE BIT OF SHERROD BROWN LAST NIGHT.
02:28:34>> I DO NOT WORK FOR THE UTILITY COMPANIES.
02:30:17MELODY, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING.
02:30:20GREAT TO BE WITH YOU THIS MORNING.
02:30:22>> David: VERY GLAD TO HAVE YOU.
02:30:25GOING TO START BY ASKING ABOUT TARIFFS BECAUSE IT'S A BIG
02:30:29ISSUE FOR US IN CANADA.
02:30:32DO YOU THINK THAT LAST NIGHT IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF
02:30:34THOSE TARIFFS AND IF SO, BY
02:30:38WHAT MEANS? >> I DO BELIEVE THAT AMERICANS
02:30:41SENT A STRONG MESSAGE. THERE'S DEEP CONCERN AND
02:30:44CERTAINLY THE BORDER STATES --
02:30:46I KNOW YOU'RE IN MICHIGAN THIS MORNING. MAINE AND OTHER PLACE THAT HAVE
02:30:49BEEN DEEPLY AFFECTED BY THE
02:30:51TARIFFS AND PEOPLE HAVE SEEN IT
02:30:54AS STOKING INFLATION AND ADDING TO THEIR HOUSEHOLD COSTS EVEN
02:30:58THOSE BEYOND THE BORDER STATES.
02:31:00SO I THINK IT IS A REPUDIATION OF THAT.
02:31:03I MEAN, WE KNOW OVER TIME THAT
02:31:08TARIFFS HISTORICALLY HAVE BEEN
02:31:10USED MOST GENERALLY AGAINST
02:31:14NATION THAT THE UNITED STATES
02:31:17HAD DEEP DISPUTES WITH, NOT ITS NEIGHBOURS AND ALLIES LIKE
02:31:21CANADA. WHILE TARIFFS WON'T GO AWAY COMPLETELY THERE WILL BE
02:31:25EFFORTS MADE TO CONTINUE TO CHALLENGE THE PRESIDENT'S USE
02:31:26OF TARIFFS IN A WAY THAT MOST
02:31:29SEE AS BEING UNPRODUCTIVE AND BRINGING ADDITIONAL COST ON TO
02:31:33THE KITCHEN TABLES OF AMERICANS
02:31:36AND UNDERMINING THE ABILITY OF
02:31:38BUSINESSES TO WORK WITH OTHER
02:31:41COUNTRIES IN A WAY THAT ENSURES AND BUILDS ECONOMIC SECURITY.
02:31:45SO I THINK THEY'LL DO THAT. I MEAN, SOME OF THIS WE SAW
02:31:48LAST YEAR IN THE SUPREME COURT
02:31:50THAT THERE WAS A REJECTION OF
02:32:24LOOK LIKE.
02:32:27HERE IN MICHIGAN THE EL-SAYED
02:32:32WAS CALLED A JIHADIST BY PRESIDENT TRUMP.
02:32:35HOW DOES HE CLAIM TO BE A DEAL MAKER TO SORT OUT THE ISSUE
02:32:39THAT AMERICANS HAVE SO RESOUNDINGLY TALKED ABOUT AT
02:32:42THE BALLOT?
02:32:44>> WELL, ONE OF THINGS WE'VE
02:32:47SEEN IS I THINK A REAL
02:32:50REPUDIATION OF THE WAY THAT
02:32:51THIS ADMINISTRATION AND THIS
02:32:54CONGRESS HAS ACTED.
02:32:56CONGRESS, ARTICLE 1 OF THE U.S.
02:32:58CONSTITUTION HAS ITS OWN AUTHORITIES AND
02:33:01RESPONSIBILITIES AND PEOPLE SEE THOSE AS HAVING BEEN LAID TO
02:33:05THE SIDE TO CARRY FORT THE
02:33:08PRESIDENT'S AGENDA. WHAT I BELIEVE WE'LL SEE IS
02:33:11CONGRESSING STEPPING UP TO
02:33:13EXERCISE THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES
02:33:15AND A PRESIDENT LAST NIGHT WHO
02:33:18SAID HE WANTED TO WORK WITH
02:33:23DEMOCRATS. HE SAID THAT BEFORE LANGUAGE IS ALWAYS HOT DURING THE CAMPAIGN
02:33:27SEASON BUT WE'VE ALSO SEEN OTHER INSTANCES WHERE, FOR
02:33:30EXAMPLE, THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK WHO WAS ALSO CHALLENGED BY THE
02:33:48AGENDA FORWARD THAT RESPONDS TO THE NEED THAT AMERICANS
02:33:52EXPRESSED LAST NIGHT. THEY WANT TO SEE ECONOMIC
02:33:55SECURITY ISSUES ADDRESSED. THEY WANT TO SEE ISSUES WITH
02:33:58THE WAR BEING ADDRESSED, A WAR THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE THAT WE
02:34:02NEEDED TO MOVE INTO IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THAT HAS
02:34:05INCREASED COSTS PARTICULARLY
02:34:06THOSE AT THE GAS PUMP.
02:34:10WE'LL SEE WHEN DEMOCRATS START TO PUSH IF THE PRESIDENT HAVING
02:34:14SEEN THE RESULTS FROM LAST NIGHT WANTS TO GIVE IN SOME QUARTERS.
02:34:18IF NOT, WHAT WE'LL SEE I THINK
02:34:19WILL BE A SERIES OF LEGISLATIVE
02:34:23MOVES WHERE DEMOCRATS MOVE
02:34:26LEGISLATION, PASS LEGISLATION. THE PRESIDENT MIGHT BE FORCED
02:34:29TO VETO IT SETTING UP A LARGER
02:34:33CONFRONTATION FOR 2028.
02:34:39>> MELODY BARNES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME THIS MORNING.
02:34:43>> GREAT, THANKS SO MUCH.
02:34:43A PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU.
02:34:52>> David: MISSISSIPPI, A STATE FEW THOUGHT THE DEMOCRATIC BLUE
02:34:55WAVE COULD POTENTIALLY REACH.
02:34:56TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
02:35:00THE DEMOCRATS COLUMN IS HOLDING
02:35:03A VERY, VERY NARROW LEAD.
02:35:05A FEW DOZEN VOTES OVER THE REPUBLICAN.
02:35:0996% OF THE VOTES HAVE BEEN COUNTED.
02:35:12A DEMOCRAT HAS NOT WON IN
02:35:21MISSISSIPPI FOR A VERY, VERY LONG TIME.
02:35:24WE'RE GOING TO WATCH MISSISSIPPI, THE IMPLICATIONS
02:35:27FOR CANADA, WHAT IT MEANS FOR
02:35:29DONALD TRUMP AND HIS FINAL TWO YEARS IN WHITE HOUSE. ALL THAT AHEAD HERE ON "CBC
02:35:32MORNING LIVE."
02:37:30>> David: ELON MUSK SPENT HALF
02:37:32A BILLION DOLLARS TO HELP REPUBLICANS GAIN CONTROL OF
02:37:36CONGRESS. IT DID NOT PAY OFF.
02:37:39MUSK NOW HAS A FEW FEWER ALLIES
02:37:41IN CONGRESS.
02:37:44DON CAPEKI LOOKED INTO THE
02:37:46MONEY OF ALL OF THIS
02:37:48PARTICULARLY WITH ELON MUSK. THE CORP FINANCE EDITOR FOR THE
02:37:52AMERICAS FOR REUTERS. DAWN, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING.
02:37:55THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
02:38:00>> David: SOME THE AMOUNTS ARE
02:38:05STAGGERING. A CANADIAN ELECTION, $40 MILLION CANADIAN IS SPENT.
02:38:08WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT IN TERMS OF THE DARK MONEY THAT
02:38:11FLOWED IN HERE?
02:38:13>> WE KNOW OF $445 MILLION PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.
02:38:16WHAT WE DON'T KNOW IS IF FULL BREADTH OF WHAT HE SPENT ON
02:38:20STATE AND LOCAL RACES AND
02:38:23CAMPAIGNS AND ISSUES. WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH DARK
02:38:26MONEY HE DONATED TO GROUPS THAT DONATED IN DIFFERENT NAMES.
02:38:29THAT MONEY IS A LOT HARDER TO TRACK.
02:38:32THE DARK MONEY GOES THROUGH PHONE PROFIT GROUPS.
02:38:35THEY DON'T HAVE TO DISCLOSE IT.
02:38:37IT'S TOTALLY LEGAL AND JUST THE
02:38:40WAY THE UNITED STATES' CAMPAIGN
02:38:42FINANCE SYSTEM WORKS.
02:38:45>> IT IS OF COURSE FOR A PURPOSE. YOU'RE TRYING TO MAKE YOUR CANDIDATE WIN.
02:38:48DID THAT WORK FOR YOU ON MUSK? >> IT DID NOT.
02:38:51I ACTUALLY WAS JUST RUNNING THE
02:38:53NUMBERS AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE
02:38:58SUPPORTED ABOUT 43 DIFFERENT CANDIDATES IN THIS ELECTION.
02:39:01ONLY THREE OF THEM DEFINITIVELY WON.
02:39:04THERE'S ABOUT A HALF DOZEN RACES THAT ARE CURRENTLY NOT
02:39:08CALLED THAT DEMOCRATS LEAD IN.
02:39:11THERE'S ONE REPUBLICAN RACE
02:39:13THAT IS -- THAT -- A RACE WHERE
02:39:15REPUBLICAN LEADS THAT HASN'T BEEN CALLED YET.
02:39:18HE DIDN'T GETTING IN BUT HE GOT NEXT TO NOTHING FOR CLOSE TO
02:39:22HALF A BILLION DOLLARS. HE SPENT CLOSE TO A QUARTER OF
02:39:25A BILLION ALONE IN TEXAS IN THE
02:39:29SENATE RACE THERE.
02:39:32AND NOT ONLY DID KEN PAXTON LOSE BUT HE LOST BY AN
02:39:36OVERWHELMING MAJORITY. THIS IS JUST A SHARP REBUKE,
02:39:38NOT JUST OF TRUMP AND HIS
02:39:41POLICIES, BUT ALSO OF THE BILLIONAIRE THAT ARE FINANCING
02:39:45ALL OF THESE CAMPAIGNS IN THE UNITED STATES.
02:39:48>> David: DAWN, THIS IS AN ASIDE BUT I GOTTA SAY I LOVE
02:39:52YOUR COLLEAGUE BEHIND YOU WHO'S
02:39:53JUST ARRIVED AT WORK AND YET TO
02:39:56REALIZE YOU'RE DOING A NATIONAL TV INTERVIEW. >> A LIVE INTERVIEW, YES.
02:40:00>> David: A LIVE INTERVIEW. ALL FIGURED OUT AT SOME POINT.
02:40:04LOOK, TALK ME THROUGH MORE OF THIS DARK MONEY.
02:40:07AS YOU SAY, LEGAL, BUT WHERE'S
02:40:11IT COMING FROM AND WHAT IS --
02:40:12WHAT IS THE INTENT THERE?
02:40:22HAVING YOUR NAME BEHIND IT.
02:40:24I I'VE TALKED TO LAWMAKERS ON
02:40:27THE HILL AND CAMPAIGN STAFF WHO
02:40:29WANT JOURNALISTS FRANKLY TO
02:40:31UNRAVEL WHERE THIS MONEY IS ALL
02:40:34COMING FROM BECAUSE IT FLOWS
02:40:40THROUGH NON-PROFIT GROUPS AND
02:40:47SUPER PACK. THERE ARE ALREADY CALLS FROM
02:40:51DEMOCRAT WHO HAVE WON FOR CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM.
02:40:53THERE'S ONE BILL IN CONGRESS
02:40:57RIGHT NOW THAT IS REFERRED TO
02:40:58EASE CLOSING THE MUSK LOOPHOLE.
02:41:03IT WOULD PREVENT BILLIONAIRES
02:41:12THAT HAVE DEFENCE CONTRACTS.
02:41:15TRUMP DIVERTED A LOT OF THE
02:41:17MINUTE TO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT
02:41:20AFFILIATE PACTS CALLED NO GOING
02:41:22BACK AND SAFETY AND AFFORDABILITY.
02:41:25WHEN THOSE ADS RUN IN AMERICAN
02:41:27HOUSEHOLDS, IT SAYS AT THE VERY
02:41:31END, SPONSORED BY NO GOING BACK PACT AND SAFETY AND
02:41:35AFFORDABILITY PACT WHICH SOUNDS VERY INNOCUOUS.
02:41:38THINGS EVERYONE WANTS TO GET
02:41:40BEHIND BUT MONEY IS COMING FROM
02:41:42MAGA AND IT'S DESIGNED THAT WAY
02:41:47INTENTIONALLY BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT MODERATE VOTERS MIGHT
02:41:49BE TURNED OFF IF THEY SAW THE
02:41:52ADS WERE SPONSORED BY MAGA.
02:41:54DESIGNED INTENTIONAL AND IF YOU
02:41:58SEE ADS SPONSORED BY ELON MUSK,
02:42:01YOU MIGHT THINK TWICE ABOUT THE
02:42:05CONTEXT OF THAT PROGRAM. >> David: DAWN, YOU'VE
02:42:08EXPLAINED IT WELL AND I KNOW IT'S A COMPLEX ONE.
02:42:11THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND I HOPE YOUR COLLEAGUE HAS A GREAT DAY. >> THANK YOU.
02:42:15ME, TOO. >> David: THANKS A LOT.
02:42:18>> MICHIGANDERS WE WANT OUR
02:42:21TAXES SPENT HERE, FOR HEALTHCARE HERE, INFRASTRUCTURE
02:42:25HERE! WE DON'T WANT OUR MONEY-TO-FOR
02:42:29APARTHEID OR GENOCIDAL WAR.
02:42:32MIKE, ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT! [Cheering]
02:42:35>> I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A HOUSE IN
02:42:39FLORIDA AND TWO YACHTS. SEE, YOU CHOSE HATE AND
02:42:42MICHIGAN CHOSE HOPE.
02:42:47>> David: ABDUL EL-SAYED TOOK
02:42:51MICHIGAN'S OPEN SENATE SEAT.
02:42:55THE FIRST MUSLIM-ELECTED TO THE CHAMBER. MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS ARE
02:42:59BLAMING TRUMP FOR THEIR LOSS IN
02:43:03WHAT WAS A TIGHT RACE.
02:43:07>> I'M OUT HERE WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYING IF HE WAS ON THE
02:43:11BALLOT WE WOULD HAVE WON BIG. THAT'S JUST HIS EGO.
02:43:13I THINK HE'S CAUSED A LOT OF THIS.
02:43:16>> I THINK PEOPLE ARE
02:43:20SHORT-SIGHTEDLY FOCUSING ON THINGS LIKE GAS PRICES AND OUR
02:43:24INVOLVEMENT IN THE WAR RATHER THAN LOOKING AT THE LONG-TERM
02:43:28EFFECTS OF THEIR VOTES THAT THEY'RE CASTING.
02:43:30>> WHEN IT COMES TO
02:43:33CONSERVATIVE, WOMEN AND YOUTH, TURNOUT IS GOING TO LOOK
02:43:37REMARKABLY PRETTY LOW AND I
02:43:40THINK THAT'S KIND OF THE LESSON
02:43:41HERE THE TAKE REALLY.
02:43:46>> David: MEAGAN FITZPATRICK
02:43:48AND I WERE BOTH AT ABDUL EL-SAYED'S VICTORY PARTY LAST
02:43:52NIGHT AND NEITHER OF US HAVE
02:43:55HAD ENOUGH SLEEP, MEGAN. THAT'S VERY CLEAR.
02:43:58LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW CLOSE THINGS WERE AND HOW TENSE IT WAS IN THAT ROOM.
02:44:01THEY WERE WATCHING ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS ALL THE OTHER STATES
02:44:04WERE TURNING BLUE. NO CLEAR SIGN THERE UNTIL VERY
02:44:07EARLY THIS MORNING.
02:44:10>> Reporter: YEAH, IT WAS A
02:44:13REALLY LONG NIGHT FOR ABDUL
02:44:16EL-SAYED'S SUPPORTERS, BUT AS
02:44:20THEY WAITED THEY CELEBRATED. AS THEY SAW THE RESULTS COME IN
02:44:24ACROSS THE COUNTRY. EVERY TIME IT WAS ANNOUNCED
02:44:27THAT A DEMOCRAT HAD WON A
02:44:31GOVERNOR'S SEAT SOMEWHERE,
02:44:32THERE WERE CHEERS IN THE ROOM.
02:44:38I SAW PEOPLE HUGGING EACH
02:44:43OTHER, PHONES OUT.
02:44:49THERE WAS JUBILATION.
02:44:54I WAS ASKING WHY DO THEY THINK THE DEMOCRATS WERE HAVING SUCH A GOOD NIGHT.
02:44:57AN OF PEOPLE SAYING THEY THINK
02:45:00AMERICANS WANTED CHANGE.
02:45:11OVER AND OVER AGAIN YET WHEN I
02:45:13WAS TALKING TO VOTERS THEY KEPT
02:45:16BRINGING UP THE PRICE OF GAS AND GROCERIES, THE COST OF
02:45:19LIVING AND HOW HARD IT IS TO MAKE ENDS MEET RIGHT NOW.
02:45:21THEY ARE LOOKING FOR LEADER TO HELP THEM.
02:45:23NOW THEY'RE COUNTING ON ABDUL EL-SAYED TO DO THAT.
02:45:27WHEN I WAS ASKING PEOPLE WHAT
02:45:30IS IT ABOUT HIM THEY LIKE PEOPLE WERE 'TILLING ME HE
02:45:34SEEMS GENUINE. HE SEEMS TO UNDERSTAND THE WORKING PEEP ALREL AND HE DID
02:45:38HAVE THE BACKING OF QUITE A FEW
02:45:39UNIONS.
02:45:45THE AUTO UNION WAS THERE
02:45:48SUPPORTING HIM.
02:45:49HE HAS THAT BACKING.
02:45:54HE UNDERSTANDS THE STRUGGLES AND A FIGHTER.
02:45:56THEY ALSO TALKED ABOUT THE ODDS
02:45:59THAT HE OVERCAME IN THIS BATTLE
02:46:03TO HOLD THE SEAT HERE BLUE IN MICHIGAN. EL-SAYED TALKED ABOUT THAT IN
02:46:07THE SPEECH HE GAVE TO THE SUPPORTERS IN THE ROOM LAST NIGHT.
02:46:11EVEN THOUGH THE RACE HADN'T BEEN CALLED YET OFFICIALLY, HE
02:46:14WENT AHEAD AND SPOKE TO HIS SUPPORTERS.
02:46:17>> THEY MIGHT HAVE BEEN POINTING TO MY NAME AND MY
02:46:20FAITH BUT WE ALL KNOW MY NAME
02:46:21AND FAITH AREN'T THE REASON YOU
02:46:24CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GAS, YOUR
02:46:29GROCERY, NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T SEE A DOCTOR. WE BUILT A MOVEMENT.
02:46:33GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEEP AND FOR THE PEOPLE.
02:46:36WE SHOW UNDER A BATTLE BETWEEN THE MONEY ABOUT THE MANY THAT
02:46:39THE MANY REALLY CAN WIN.
02:46:43>> THAT WAS SOMETHING I WAS HEARING FROM PEOPLE IN THE ROOM LAST NIGHT, TOO.
02:46:47THOSE MESSAGES ON HIS CAMPAIGN TRAIL OF GETTING MONEY OUT OF
02:46:51POLITICS, MONEY IN YOUR POCKET, MEDICARE FOR ALL, HEALTHCARE
02:46:53FOR ALL, REALLY RESONATED WITH PEOPLE.
02:46:56I DID HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH
02:47:00A MUSLIM WOMAN WHO TALKED ABOUT HISTORIC THIS, HOW SIGNIFICANT
02:47:04THIS IS, HE IS A ROLE MODEL AND
02:47:07HIS VICTORY SENT A MESSAGE TO YOUNG MUSLIMS ABOUT WHAT IS POSSIBLE.
02:47:11LOOKING TO HIM AS A ROLE MODEL NOW AND A LOT OF PEOPLE, TOO,
02:47:14DAVID SAYING NOW THE ATTENTION IS GOING TO SHIFT TO 2028.
02:47:17I WAS HAVING A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE LAST
02:47:21NIGHT ABOUT WHERE THE DEMOCRATS GO FROM HERE.
02:47:24PEOPLE WERE TELLING ME -- THEY
02:47:26SAID WE'RE COMING FOR THE WHITE HOUSE AND NEW SHERIFFS IN TOWN.
02:47:30THEY ARE FEELING GOOD, FEELING
02:47:33CONFIDENT, BUT AS EL-SAYED SAID IN HIS SPEECH, TOO, THE FIGHT ISN'T OVER.
02:47:36NOW THE HARD WORK REALLY BEGINS. FOR HIM TO FOLLOW THROUGH ON
02:47:40THE PROMISES HE MADE TO VOTERS
02:47:43HERE IN MICHIGAN. >> David: THE ONE RACE OVER.
02:47:46THE START OF NEW WORK AND A NEW
02:47:48RACE ALL STARTING TODAY.
02:47:50MEAGAN FITZPATRICK, THANK YOU.
02:47:56ALL RIGHT. WE TURN TO NEW MEXICO WHERE THE
02:47:58DEMOCRAT MAKING HISTORY AS THE FIRST INDIGENOUS WOMAN'S
02:48:02ELECTED GOVERNOR OF ANY U.S. STATE.
02:48:04THAT VICTORY COMING LESS THAN 80 YEARS AFTER NATIVE AMERICANS
02:48:08FIRST WON THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN NEW MEXICO.
02:48:10MORE OF ALL OF THIS COMING YOUR WAY AHEAD ON "CBC MORNING
02:48:13LIVE."
02:50:59[♪♪]
02:51:03>> David: WE'RE LIVE IN MICHIGAN THE MORNING AFTER DEMOCRATS TAKE CONTROL OF BOTH
02:51:07THE HOUSE AND SENATE. CANADIAN OFFICIALS WILL NO
02:51:09DOUBT SEEK TO STRIKE
02:51:12RELATIONSHIPS WITH THOSE NEW LEGISLATORS ESPECIALLY IN THE
02:51:15MIDST OF A TRADE WAR. TRUMP REMAINS PRESIDENT.
02:51:18HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS? ANGIE SETH ASKING PEOPLE THAT
02:51:22VERY QUESTION. >> Reporter: GOOD TO SAY YOU,
02:51:25DAVID, OUT THERE IN MICHIGAN. A LOT OF PEOPLE WATCH THE
02:51:28MIDTERM ELECTIONS WONDERING THE OUTCOME WOULD BE FEELING
02:51:31SOMEWHAT OPTIMISTIC, IF YOU
02:51:33WILL, ABOUT WHERE THINGS STAND. WE SPOKE TO A FEW OF THEM TODAY.
02:51:37TAKE A LISTEN TO WHAT THEIR REACTION IS THE DAY AFTER.
02:51:41>> WE HAVE TO BE OPTIMISTIC
02:51:45BECAUSE ONCE THINGS WILL BE NORMALIZED WE CAN LOOK FORWARD
02:51:48AND THINK FOR THE BRIGHTER SIDE. >> WITH THE CHANGE IN THE SEATS
02:51:52I'M NOT SURE IF THAT'S A STRONG
02:51:55INFLUENCE FOR GOING FORWARD BUT HOPING FOR SOME CHANGE AND
02:51:58BETTER OUTCOMES. >> Reporter: SO FEEL THE SENSE
02:52:02OF OPTIMISM HOPING IT WILL MEAN CHANGE. BUSINESSES OF COURSE ARE
02:52:06WATCHING THIS VERY CLOSELY IN TERMS OF WHAT IT'S GOING TO MEAN FOR THEM.
02:52:09WE TALKED ABOUT THE WORD REVERBERATING OVER THE LAST
02:52:11COUPLE OF YEARS. TARIFFT AND HOW THEY'VE BEEN
02:52:15AFFECTED AND IMPACTED BY THIS WITH THE DEMOCRATS NOW TAKING THE MAJORITY.
02:52:18WHAT IS THAT GOING TO LOOK LIKE FOR CANADA.
02:52:21WHAT IS IT GOING TO MEAN FOR BUSINESSES. WE SPOKE WITH SIMONE GOUDREAU,
02:52:25THE CHIEF ECONOMIST AND HE SAYS
02:52:33CANADIAN BUYSS HAVE BEEN HIT HARD AT ALL LEVELT AND A LEVEL
02:52:36OF OPTIMISM, IF YOU WILL, IN
02:52:40TERMS OF WHAT IT'S GOING TO
02:52:42MEAN FOR BUSINESSES.
02:52:45>> A FULL THIRD OF ALL SMALL
02:52:49BUSINESSES IN CANADA
02:52:54HADERGJONAJ FELT SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE IMPACT FROM THE TRADE WAR.
02:52:57THAT SHOWS IT GOES BEYOND THE BUSINESSES WE HAVE IN MIND WHEN
02:53:01WE THINK ABOUT THE TRADE WAR. IT GOES BEYOND THE
02:53:04MANUFACTURING BUSINESSES. IT'S ABOUT WHOLESALERS.
02:53:07IT'S ABOUT TRANSPORTATION
02:53:11BUSINESSES. IT'S ABOUT RETAILERS.
02:53:13>> SO THOSE WILL BE IMPACTED
02:53:16DIRECTLY BY THE TARIFFS IN THE
02:53:19SMALL BIDS BEING HIT HARD BY THIS. THE DEMOCRATS DON'T TAKE OVER
02:53:22UNTIL JANUARY. A LOT CAN HAPPEN BETWEEN NOW
02:53:24AND THEN AS YOU KNOW, DAVID. WHAT EXACTLY WILL THAT SPILL
02:53:28OUT TO LOOK LIKE. WHAT WILL IT LOOKS LIKE IN
02:53:31TERMS OF A POTENTIAL TRADE DEAL BETWEEN CANADA AND THE UNITED STATES.
02:53:34WILL THE DEMOCRATS PULL THE TARIFFS BACK OR WILL THEY SORT
02:53:38OF SIT SORT OF IN THAT
02:53:42NARRATIVE AS WE'VE SEEN CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW.
02:53:45THAT IS A WAIT-AND-SEE AND FEELING CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC
02:53:48IF YOU WILL. IN ADDITION, AND I KNOW THIS IS
02:53:51TOP OF MIKE AS WE TALK ABOUT THE MIDTERMS TODAY.
02:53:54TOMORROW THE BUDGET IS TABLE
02:53:56AND CANADIAN BUSINESSES, THE C.F.I.B., THEY'RE GOING TO
02:53:59WATCH THAT VERY CLOSELY.
02:54:02IN THE MIDST OF THE TRADE WAR
02:54:04WHAT THE GOVERNMENT TO DO FOR SMALL BUSINESSES, CANADIAN BUSINESSES.
02:54:08IS THIS GOING TO BE A SMALL BUSINESS BUDGET?
02:54:12THEY'LL BE WATCHING FOR THAT.
02:54:17TOMORROW WILL ALSO BE AN
02:54:18IMPORTANT DAY FOR THE
02:54:22BUSINESSES TO WATCH FOR ANGIE
02:54:24SETH IN TORONTO, THANK YOU.
02:54:27DAVID DULIO IS THE DIRECTOR FOR
02:54:34CIVIC ENGAGEMENT.
02:54:35THIS IS A PRESIDENT THAT DOES
02:54:38NOT LIKE CRITICISM.
02:54:42WAR IN IRAN. GAS PRICES.
02:54:45COST OF LIVING, TARIFFS.
02:54:47DOES HE TAKE A MESSAGE HERE?
02:54:52>> THE PRESIDENT DOESN'T LIKE
02:54:53TAKING BLAME FOR ANYTHING, RIGHT?
02:54:56HE IS I THINK GOING TO TAKE THE
02:54:58POSITION OF, WELL, REALLY
02:55:03WASN'T MY FAULT.
02:55:05I'M GOING TO KEEP GOING WITH
02:55:10WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING.
02:55:13TRUMP IS A REALITY TV STAR, TOO, RIGHT SO USED TO PLAYING
02:55:30>> David: THE ARCH, THE REFLECTING POOL, DOES HE BECAME
02:55:34MORE FIXATED ON THAT?
02:55:38>> HE VERY WELL MIGHT.
02:55:39THOSE ARE THINGS HE HAS MORE CONTROL OVER.
02:55:43NOT TOTAL CONTROL. THE REFLECTING POOL PROJECTS
02:55:45SAW DELAYS AND PROBLEMS AND LAWSUITS AND THE ARCH IS GOING
02:55:49TO -- ALREADY BEEN LAWSUITS
02:55:50FILED OVER THAT.
02:55:54HE'S GOING PLAY WITHIN THE RULES OF THE AMERICAN SYSTEM
02:55:56WHICH INCLUDE THE COURTS, PUBLIC OPINION AND CERTAINLY
02:55:59CONGRESS AS WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT ALL MORNING.
02:56:03>> David: EVEN IF HE DOESN'T LIKE IT. >> EVEN IF HE DOESN'T LIKE IT,
02:56:06WHICH HE WON'T. >> David: ABSOLUTELY.
02:56:10DAVID DULIO WITH ME HERE
02:56:14THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE MORNING. THE DEMOCRATS SEIZED CONTROL OF
02:56:17BOTH THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND THE SENATE
02:56:20NOT TO MENTION KEY RACES,
02:56:23GOVERNOR RACES AND MANY OF WERE LONG RED STATES, WELL, THEY'VE
02:56:27GONE BLUE. THERE'S THE PRESIDENT. WE'LL BE WATCHING FOR HIS
02:56:31REACTION OVER THE COURSE O
03:00:21E
03:00:21[♪♪]
03:00:26>> David: GOOD WEDNESDAY MORNING. I'M DAVID COMMON. LIVE IN DETROIT.
03:00:30DONALD TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICANS HAVE BEEN HIT WITH
03:00:33STUNNING DEFEAT LOSING CONGRESS TO THE DEMOCRATS.
03:00:37TRUMP'S TRADE WAR IN CANADA, ONE OF THE BIG REASONS WHY.
03:00:40THE REPUBLICAN'S LOSS IS
03:00:42HISTORY-MAKING AND NOT OVER YET.
03:00:44TRUMP IS POLITICALLY WEAKER THAN AT ANY POINT SINCE HIS
03:00:48RETURN AT THE WHITE HOUSE. THAT CAN CREATE AN OPENING FOR
03:00:50OTTAWA TO MAKE A TRADE DEAL.
03:00:54>> REALLY ONCE IN A HALF
03:00:56CENTURY VICTORY FOR THE
03:01:00DEMOCRATS. >> VOTERS TRUSTING DEMOCRATS
03:01:03NOW TO TAKE ON AN UNPOPULAR WAR WITH IRAN AND THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.
03:01:07TRUMP SAYS HE ACCEPTS THE
03:01:09RESULTS BUT WILL HE JUST VETO
03:01:11ALL DEMOCRATIC LEGISLATION?
03:01:14ONE OF THE MIDTERM'S BIGGEST SURPRISES WAS IN TEXAS.
03:01:18THAT STATE TURNING BLUE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES.
03:01:21>> IN THIS STATE, IN THIS COUNTRY, POWER BELONGS TO THE
03:01:25PEOPLE.
03:01:29[Cheering and applause] >> TEXAS DEMOCRATS FLIP THE
03:01:32SENATE AND GOVERNOR SEATS AND FAR FROM THE ONLY STATE MAKING
03:01:36HIS INDUSTRY. IS BLUE THE COLOUR OF RELIEF FOR CANADA?
03:01:39WHAT TRUMP'S SHRINKING POWER MEANS FOR THE ONGOING TRADE WAR.
03:01:43>> HE STILL HAS THE POWER TO
03:01:48SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGE CANADA'S ECONOMY. >> David: TRADE TALKS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING.
03:01:52DOES THAT CONTINUE OR DOES
03:01:53CANADA WAIT UNTIL TRUMP IS
03:01:58GONE. THERE IS A HUGE BLUE WAVE
03:02:00ROLLING INTO CONGRESS THIS MORNING.
03:02:03HARD TO OVERESTIMATE ITS SIZE
03:02:06AND SIGNIFICANCE. VOTERS ARE MAKING DONALD TRUMP
03:02:09PAY A HISTORIC PRICE BLAMING
03:02:11THEIR HIGHER COST OF LIVING ON
03:02:25ESSENTIALS AND PUNISHING TRUMP FOR FAILS TO DO WHAT HE PROMISED.
03:02:28BRING DOWN THOSE PRICES.
03:02:30DEMOCRATS WILL TAKE CONTROL OF CONGRESS COME JANUARY.
03:02:34EASILY GAINING THE THREE SEATS THEY NEEDED TO WIN THE HOUSE
03:02:37BUT IT COULD TAKE DAYS UNTIL THE RACES ARE DECIDED.
03:02:40THE DEMOCRATS ARE ON TRACK FOR A BIGGEST HOUSE MAJORITY THAN
03:02:43THEY EXPECTED. IT IS THE SENATE WHERE THE
03:02:47DEMOCRATS ARE MAKING A LANDMARK
03:02:52BREAKTHROUGH WINNING SEVEN SEATS.
03:02:55THE DEMOCRATS COULD WIN MORE BUILDING ON THE SENATE MAJORITY.
03:02:59HERE IN MICHIGAN KEY BATTLE GROUND SITE INCLUDING THAT SENATE FIGHT.
03:03:02THE FRONTLINE IN THE TRADE WAR WHERE TRUMP'S TARIFFS ARE
03:03:05COSTING THE DETROIT BIG THREE
03:03:07AUTOMAKERS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
03:03:10DEMOCRAT ABDUL EL-SAYED WINS
03:03:13THIS STATE AFTER HE MADE HIGH COST FORCE TARIFFS ON CANADA A
03:03:17BIG THEME IN HIS CAMPAIGN.
03:03:22>> MICHIGAN, WE DID IT!
03:03:23[Cheering and applause]
03:03:29MIGHT HAVE BEEN POINTING TO MY NAME AND MY FAITH BUT WE ALL
03:03:33KNOW MY NAME AND FAITH AREN'T THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GAS.
03:03:37NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T AFFORD YOUR GROCERIES.
03:03:39NOT THE REASON YOU CAN'T SEE A DOCTOR.
03:03:43WE BUILT A MOVEMENT. GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE BY THE
03:03:46PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE.
03:03:48WE SHOWED THAT IN A BATTLE BETWEEN THE MONEY ABOUT THE
03:03:51MANY THAT THE MANY REALLY CAN
03:03:52WIN.
03:04:09>> David: EL-SAYED WAS SO EFFECTIVE EVEN HIS REPUBLICAN OPPONENT CAME OUT AGAINST IT SAYING CANADA IS NOT THE ENEMY. HE NOT OPPOSED TO TARIFFS IN
03:04:13PRINCIPLE BUT THINKS THEY SHOULD BE TARGETED. EL-SAYED COULD HAVE AN EARLY OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THOSE TARIFFS BECAUSE
03:04:16OREGON SENATOR SAYS DEMOCRATS COULD USE THEIR MAJORITY TO TRY
03:04:18TO END TRUMP'S TRADE WAR.
03:04:22THE QUESTION IS WHETHER THERE WILL BE LEGAL CHALLENGES
03:04:26PARTICULARLY FROM THE WHITE OUTS ON THE RESULTS. THE FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR FOR
03:04:29THE CENTRE OF POLITICS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA.
03:04:33LARRY, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING.
03:04:37>> David: LOOK, I THINK THERE HAD BEEN QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THERE WOULD BE ARMED
03:04:41FEDERAL FORCES AT BALLOT LOCATIONS. TURNS OUT THERE WERE NOT.
03:04:44ICE WASN'T THERE EITHER.
03:04:45CAN THE SAME BE SAID FOR THE LEGAL CHALLENGES.
03:04:49ARE THEY LIKELY FROM THE U.S.
03:04:52JUSTICE DEPARTMENT OR THE WHITE
03:04:56HOUSE? >> THERE WILL BE SOME BUT THIS
03:04:59WAS SUCH A MASSIVE VICTORY FOR
03:05:00THE DEMOCRATS AND EVEN MORE
03:05:03IMPORTANT A MASSIVE REPUDIATION OF DONALD TRUMP THAT I DON'T
03:05:06THINK MANY, IN ANY, WILL BE SUCCESSFUL AND THE PUBLIC IS NO
03:05:10MOOD FOR IT. THEY'VE HAD ABOUT ENOUGH OF
03:05:13DONALD TRUMP AND THAT'S WHAT THE VOTERS WERE SAYING.
03:05:16THIS IS THE'S E EQUIVALENT TO
03:05:24THE WATERGATE ELECTION IN 1974.
03:05:27I SAW RESULT THAT I COULD NEVER
03:05:28EVEN BELIEVE.
03:05:39>> David: THAT SAYS SOMETHING THAT YOU COULDN'T BELIEVE THEM.
03:05:43DOES THAT MEAN IT'S AN ENDORSEMENT OF THE DEMOCRATS OR
03:05:47ARE THEY JUST LESS UNPOPULAR
03:05:52THAN THE ALTERNATIVE?
03:05:56>> THE INDIVIDUAL CANDIDATES
03:05:58ACTUALLY NOMINATED APPEALING
03:06:01CANDIDATES WHO WEREN'T OBSESSED
03:06:05WITH WOKENESS AND DIDN'T
03:06:09ENDLESSLY TALK ABOUT SOCIAL
03:06:13ISSUES.
03:06:13THEY WERE VERY UPSET WITH
03:06:20HIGHIS PRICES. THIS WAS THE MOST CORRUPT
03:06:22ADMINISTRATION.
03:06:24THIS IS THE MOST CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION BY A MILE IN
03:06:27AMERICAN HISTORY.
03:06:32PEOPLE HAD HAT ENOUGH.
03:06:36-- HAD HAD ENOUGH.
03:06:43HE'LL IGNORE CONGRESS, THE LAW ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION.
03:06:47>> David: I DO WANT TO GO BACK TO WHERE WE STARTED ON THIS,
03:06:50LARRY, AND JUST UNDERSCORE, YOU
03:06:53CAN SAY ALMOST EVERY ELECTION
03:06:55IS HISTORIC BUT YOU CAN'T SAY IT MORE THAN ABOUT THIS ONE.
03:06:59IT IS STRIKING HOW BIG THE SHIFT IS.
03:07:02>> OH, ABSOLUTELY.
03:07:05NOBODY IN THIS COUNTRY THOUGHT WE WOULD SEE THE ELECTION OF A
03:07:08DEMOCRATIC U.S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA WHICH IS ABOUT
03:07:12AS FAR RIGHT AS YOU CAN GET IN
03:07:14AMERICAN STATES OR TEXAS WOULD SWIM IN BLUE.
03:07:18WE THOUGHT MAYBE A CLOSE WIN FOR THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE
03:07:21FOR SENATE JAMES TALARICO IN
03:07:24TEXAS, BUT THEY SWEPT INTO THE GOVERNORSHIP, TOO.
03:07:27OUSTING A 12-YEAR REPUBLICAN
03:07:30INCUMBENT AND LOADS OF
03:07:33DEMOCRATS BEAT REPUBLICANS IN DISTRICTS THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO
03:07:36BE OUT OF REACH ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.
03:07:38WHAT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW YET IS
03:07:41DEMOCRATS AREN'T GOING TO HAVE A MAJORITY. THEY'RE GOING HAVE A MAJORITY
03:07:44THAT IS STUNNING.
03:07:47PROBABLY OVER 260. 218 IS THE MAJORITY. IN THIS COUNTRY YOU REALLY DO
03:07:51HAVE TO GO BACK TO WATERGATE,
03:07:53AS I SAID.
03:07:58>> David: DAIRY SABATO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
03:08:02VERY MUCH APPRECIATE CHATTING WITH YOU THE THIS MORNING.
03:08:04>> THANK YOU, DAVID.
03:08:06>> David: DAVID DULIO IS HERE
03:08:09WITH ME IN DETROIT. THERE HAVE BEEN QUESTIONS ABOUT
03:08:12AMERICAN DEMOCRACY AND DEMOCRACY WRIT LARGE LOOKING AT
03:08:15WHAT HAS HAPPENED OVER THE PAST
03:08:17FEW YEARS.
03:08:20JANUARY 6TH AND, AND, AND AN AND A LONG LIST.
03:08:24WHAT DOES LAST NIGHT, WHAT DOES
03:08:25TODAY DO IN THE BIGGER PICTURE
03:08:28OF IS DEMOCRACY CRUMBLING? >> IT'S GIVES A LOT OF
03:08:32CONFIDENCE OUR SYSTEM IS WORKING AND THAT DEMOCRACY IS
03:08:36STRONG AND THAT IT CAN SUSTAIN
03:08:38STRAINS TO THE SYSTEM, RIGHT?
03:08:41TRUMP HAS BEEN A STRAIN ON WHETHER YOU WANT TO CALL IT THE
03:08:45CONSTITUTION, AMERICAN DEMOCRACY, WHATEVER.
03:11:47CAMPAIGNS. THE POLITICAL GROUND SHIFTS FOR
03:11:48TRUMP IN JANUARY WHEN THE
03:11:53DEMOCRATS TAKE OVER CONGRESS LET US TURN TO MARK CARCASOLE
03:11:56WHO IS ON CAPITOL HILL.
03:12:00THE DEMOCRATS BREAK THROUGH
03:12:03WHERE TRUMP WON BY
03:12:06DOUBLE-DIGITS TWO YEARS AGO WHICH IS EXTRAORDINARY.
03:12:08WHAT DO THEY DO WITH THEIR NEW RESPONSIBILITY? >> Reporter: ONLY SO MUCH THEY
03:12:12CAN REALLY DO, DAVID.
03:12:20HE'S WEAKENED BUT STILL NOT OUT.
03:12:23HE HAS A LOT OF POWER IN THE
03:12:24HALLS OF POWER.
03:12:30THE DEMOCRATS HAVE THE ABILITY TO PUSH THEIR OWN LEGISLATION
03:12:33FORWARD, ALTHOUGH ALL OF THAT,
03:12:35ANYTHING THAT'S SUCCESSFULLY
03:12:39PASSED IS SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY PRESIDENT TRUMP.
03:12:42IT ALLOWS THEM TO BLOCK REPUBLICAN LEGISLATION COMING
03:12:45THROUGH THE TWO CHAMBERS OF
03:12:53CONGRESS. THEY CAN CREATE A STALEMATE IN CONGRESS.
03:12:57ONE OF THE BONUS POWERS THAT THEY HAVE, IF YOU WILL, THE
03:13:00POWER TO LAUNCH INVESTIGATIONS AGAINST THE PRESIDENT AND HIS
03:13:03ASSOCIATES AS WELL SUBJECT TO CONGRESSIONAL OVERSIGHT AND
03:13:07ALREADY BEEN TALK THAT THE TRUMP FAMILY MEMBERS SUCH AS
03:13:10HIS SONS DON, JR., ERIC, HIS
03:13:14SON-IN-LAW JARED KUSHNER COULD BE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS
03:13:18INVESTIGATIONS TO COME. ROBERT GARCIA IS EXPECT TODAY
03:13:20BECOME THE CHAIR OF THE HOUSE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE.
03:13:23HE MADE ALL OF THAT CLEAR IN A
03:13:26TWO-WORD TWEET YESTERDAY POSED ON X CAPITAL LETTERS CLEARLY
03:13:30DIRECTED AT THE PRESIDENT AND
03:13:31HIS ASSOCIATES WHERE HE WROTE
03:13:35SIMPLY, LAWYER UP. THE NEW YORK REPRESENTATIVE WHO IS SCHEDULED TO BECOME THE NEW
03:13:38SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, THE FIRST
03:13:41BLACK PERSON TO HOLD THAT TITLE. HE MADE A LOT OF PROMISES TO
03:13:44AMERICANS IN HIS SPEECH YESTERDAY.
03:20:11OUR POCKETS. THEY ARE DEFUNDING OUR SCHOOLS.
03:20:14THEY ARE GUTTING OUR HEALTHCARE. TONIGHT WE SENT A CRYSTAL CLEAR
03:20:18MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP.
03:20:22WE WILL NOT BE CONQUERED!
03:20:35[Cheering and applause] >> Reporter: OF COURSE MANY OF US, MYSELF INCLUDED, THOUGHT
03:20:39THIS WOULD BE A MUCH CLOSER RACE. AS IT TURNS OUT HE WINS BY A COMFORTABLE MARGIN.
03:20:42STILL COUNTING THE FINAL VOTES. MORE THAN 90% OF THE BALLOTED
03:20:46COUNTED. HE HAS 55% OF THE VOTE.
03:20:49MORE THAN A MILLION VOTES MORE THAN HIS OPPONENT KEN PAXTON, THE HAND PICKED CHOICE OF DONALD
03:20:53TRUMP THAT WILL BE AND LICESED
03:20:55IN THE FUTURE.
03:21:00MANY PEOPLE FEEL THE CURRENT SENATOR, LONG TIME REPUBLICAN SENATOR WOULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER CHOICE AND MORE SUCCESSFUL.
03:21:04PAXTON WHO SAYS THE 2020 ELECTION WAS NOT SUBSTANTIATED. HE DID NOT CLAIM THAT THE VOTE
03:21:07WAS RIGGED LAST NIGHT.
03:21:10THIS WAS PART OF HIS CONCESSION
03:21:13SPEECH.
03:21:19>> LET ME START OFF BY CONGRATULATING JAMES TALARICO. I WILL PRAY FOR HIM AND HE WILL
03:21:22BE GOOD FOR THIS GREAT STATE OF
03:21:24TEXAS.
03:21:26THIS IS A GREAT STATE. GREAT PEOPLE.
03:21:30I TRIED BY BEST TO DO GOOD FOR
03:21:31TEXAS.
03:21:37>> TEXAS NOW BEGINS A NEW POLITICAL ERA. MANY YEARS AGO DEMOCRATS DID DO
03:21:40WELL HERE.
03:21:43SUCH A LONG TIME. THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1994 THAT A
03:21:47DEMOCRAT, AND THIS TIME MANY
03:21:49DEMOCRATS, WIN BATTLES FOR
03:21:52STATEWIDE OFFICE.
03:21:55>> David: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THIS SAYS ABOUT MAGA.
03:21:58DAVID DULIO IS HERE IN MICHIGAN
03:22:01WITH ME. THIS IN SOME WAYS IS A
03:22:05DEPARTURE FOR A POLITICAL APPROACH THAT
03:22:07HAS WORKED FOR THE REPUBLICANS
03:22:09REPEATEDLY.
03:22:12WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
03:22:15IS IT DEAD. REBORN IN A NEW INCARCERATION?
03:22:18>> LIKE MOST THINGS LIKE THIS, IT WILL PROBABLY ADJUST. THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO
03:22:21BE LIKE DONALD TRUMP BUT TRUMP IS A SINGULAR CHARACTER. AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT MOST
03:22:25PEOPLE THINK. HARD TO REPLACE TRUMP ONCE HE
03:22:29LEAVES OFFICE IN A COUPLE OF YEARS. LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT I THINK MIGHT BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT
03:22:31PART OF THE ELECTION NOT JUST HERE IN TEXAS BUT THROUGHOUT
03:22:34THE COUNTRY.
03:22:37THE LATINO VOTE.
03:22:40THE LATINO VOTE TWO YEARS AGO
03:22:44WAS MOSTLY GOING FOR DEMOCRATS FOR DECADES SWITCHING OVER TO
03:22:47REPUBLICANS. A KEY PART OF TRUMP'S VICTORY IN
03:22:512024.
03:22:53THE REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN 2024. REMEMBER JAMES CARVILLE SAYS
03:22:57IT'S THE MEAN, STUPID. FOR THE LATINOS A COUPLE OF
03:22:59YEARS AGO IT WAS THE ECONOMY,
03:23:03STUPID. MANY LATINOS WERE BOTHERED BY THE BRUTALITY OF THE ICE
03:23:06IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT SO THAT HURT TRUMP AS WELL.
03:23:09TARIFFS. GOING AGAINST ALLIES.
03:23:13UKRAINE, WESTERN EUROPE AND YES,
03:23:14EVEN CANADA.
03:23:17IT DEPENDED ON WHO YOU WERE.
03:23:21YOU HAD YOUR PICK OF REASON TO
03:23:23VOTE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP.
03:23:26WE'RE SEEING THAT REFLECTED
03:23:27THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY TODAY.
03:23:33AGAIN, NOW UP TO THE DEMOCRATS TO FIND A MESSAGE THAT WILL WORK TO GET THEM RE'S ELECTED TO MAKE LEGISLATION THROUGH THAT PEOPLE WILL FEEL HAS BENEFITTED THEM.
03:23:36THAT'S THE TRICKY PART. RIGHT NOW THEY'VE GOTTEN THROUGH THE FIRST HURTLE, INTO OFFICE AND WHAT'S USUALLY THE TOUGHEST BATTLE GOVERNING.
03:23:40>> NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT.
03:23:41STEVE FUTTERMAN, THANK YOU.
03:23:45THE PRIME MINISTER SAID HE'S IN RUSH TO MAKE A TRADE DEAL,
03:23:49POTENTIALLY WAITING FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP TO LEAST OFFICE.
03:23:52CATHERINE CULLEN WHO HOSTED RADIO LIVE COVERAGE LAST NIGHT
03:23:55INTO THE MORNING. HAVE YOU SLEPT?
03:23:59>> I THINK I SLEPT MORE THANK YOU, DAVID COMMON, BUT THAT'S A
03:24:02LOW BAR YOU SET FOR THE REST OF US. >> David: LET'S JUST
03:24:06COLLECTIVELY CBC PEOPLE HAVE SLEPT SOMETHING LIKE TEN HOURS IN TOTAL.
03:24:10>> POWERED BY CAFFEINE, THAT'S FOR SURE.
03:24:13>> David: WELL, I DON'T DRINK CAFFEINE.
03:24:15I'VE BEEN FUNNELING SUGAR BAGS
03:24:18ALL THE MORNING.
03:24:19I DIGRESS.
03:24:23I DIGRESS.
03:24:25CANADA IS THERE. IT HAS BEEN A MAJOR ISSUE IN
03:24:29THIS MICHIGAN RACE.
03:24:46I WONDER I WAS CO-HOSTING THE RADIO COVERAGE AND ONE OF THE
03:24:50CONVERSATIONS WE HAD AT THE END
03:24:52OF THE NIGHT REALLY STUCK WITH A LOT OF US.
03:24:55REPUBLICAN STRATEGISTS, CHET LOVE WAS SPEAKING TO US.
03:24:58HE WOULD SAY I WOULD SAY IT'S BEYOND A BLUE WAVE.
03:25:02THAT IS AN MAGA MURDER.
03:25:06HE POINTED TO NOT JUST --
03:25:13FLORIDA, SMALL MARGINS THAT COULD BE CONCERNING FOR HIS
03:25:15PARTY.
03:25:30YOU'RE RIGHT TO ASK THE QUESTION ABOUT THE TRADE DEAL.
03:25:34IN THE LAST 48, 72 HOURS, BEFORE POLLS CLOSED, WE ARE
03:25:38SEEING SIGNS OF PROGRESS BUT HAPPENING AT THE PRESIDENTIAL
03:25:42AND PRIME MINISTERIAL LEVEL.
03:25:46MARK CARNEY SAY THEY'RE ASKING LESS AND OFFERING MORE. DONALD TRUMP SAYING IN THE
03:25:49MORNING HE THINK THERE'S ROOM FOR PROGRESS HERE.
03:25:51MARK CARNEY SAYING ESSENTIALLY NEGOTIATIONS ARE ALREADY INTENSIFYING.
03:25:55JUST NOT HAPPENING IN THE WAY WE HAVE SEEN IN THE PAST WHERE YOU HAVE CANADIAN
03:25:59REPRESENTATIVE DOWNS AT THE USTR. THINGS ARE PICKING UP SPEED AND
03:26:03SIL SOME RED LINE THAT HAVE NOT BEEN MET FOR CANADA.
03:26:06YOU DO HAVE THE QUESTION.
03:26:08I MEAN, SO MUCH EMPHASIS AND UNDERSTANDABLY, VERY
03:26:10SIGNIFICANT ON THE CHANGES WITH CONGRESS. THERE'S A LAME DUCK CONGRESS
03:26:14FOR SOMETIME HERE. THERE'S THE JANUARY 1ST AUTO
03:26:18TARIFF DEADLINE, THAT THREAT HANGING OVER THINGS. IDEALLY I THINK BOTH CANADA AND
03:26:22THE UNITED STATES WOULD LIKE TO SEE A TRADE DEAL BEFORE THAT
03:26:24TIME. >> YOU HAVE, KATE RIN, BEEN
03:26:28RIGHT TO CAUTION US IN THE PAST
03:26:31TO NOT JUST SIT THERE AND SAY, OKAY, JUST BECAUSE THE
03:26:35DEMOCRATS DON'T LIKE TRUMP AND
03:26:37TRUMP IS THE ONE TO HAVE
03:26:39BROUGHT IN TARIFFS, DOESN'T
03:26:42MEAN ANYTHING 100KEY STORY
03:26:44BECAUSE THEY CONTROL CONGRESSIONAL POWER.
03:26:48TAKE US THROUGH WHAT A
03:26:51DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS MEANS FOR A TRADE DEAL.
03:26:53>> WE WERE TALKING TO BOB RAE
03:26:55LAST NIGHT AND TELLING HIM
03:26:58ABOUT THE DONALD TRUMP POST,
03:27:01THE RED MAGA HAT THAT SAYS "VETO."
03:27:05THE WORLD IN CANADA, "T.B.D.."
03:27:13THERE ARE DIPLOMATS FROM,ED A THE WORLD SAYING, HEY,
03:27:16DEMOCRATS, WE KNOW IN THIS CASE CANADA'S TRADE WAR WITH THE
03:27:19UNITED STATES WAS A PRESSING ISSUE IN STATES OVER THE COURSE
03:27:22OF THE CAMPAIGN.
03:27:26MICHIGAN IS TOP OF THE LIST
03:27:29CANADIAN DIM PLOW MATS WILL
03:27:32TELL YOU THAT IT'S IN THE LIST
03:27:33OF TOP TEN.
03:27:41EL-SAYED SAYS, YES, HE DOESN'T
03:27:43LIKE THE TRADE WAR WITH CANADA.
03:27:46HE THINKS IT'S STUPID BUT THERE
03:27:48ARE PLAYS WHERE STRATEGIC
03:27:52TARIFFS ARE SMART.
03:27:57CANADA'S CHIEF TRADE NEGOTIATOR SAID THE TIME IS UP. WE'RE NOT GOING BACK TO THE
03:28:01WORLD AS MUCH AS WE WOULD LIKE
03:28:03IT AS THAT KIND OF TARIFF-FREE
03:28:07EXISTENCE FOR NO OTHER REASONS
03:28:08IF YOU LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF
03:28:12REVENUES. BE IT DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN,
03:28:16DOESN'T MEAN THERE WON'T BE A DEAL BUT THIS OLD WORLD WHERE
03:28:20TARIFFS WERE NOT ON ANYBODY'S RADAR, DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THE
03:28:23FUTURE AHEAD OF US.
03:28:29THE FEDERAL BUDGET COMING OUT
03:28:30TOMORROW IN OTTAWA.
03:28:36ALL PRINTED. SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN DECIDE ON
03:28:39ALREADY.
03:28:46WE ALREADY KNOW THE TITLE OF THE BUDGET.
03:28:50"MASTERS OF DESTINY." FRANÇOIS-PHILIPPE CHAMPAGNE,
03:28:53THE FINANCE MINISTER HAD
03:28:58TWEETED THAT OUT.
03:29:20BUSINESS TAX INCENTIVES,
03:29:24DEFENCE, AND I THINK THE EMPHASIS IS REALLY GOING TO BE, YEAH, THERE'S A LOT GOING ON IN
03:29:28THE WORLD. CANADA IS LOOKING AT WHAT IT CAN DO FOR ITSELF.
03:29:32SO YOU KNOW, THERE IS A CONNECTION TO THE U.S. THERE
03:29:34BUT IN MANY WAYS THE BIGGER
03:29:37STATEMENT IT IS NOT FUNDAMENTALLY SHAPING CANADA'S
03:29:39PLANS GOING FORWARD.
03:29:44>> LET'S DO THE DUAL PLUGS HERE. THE FEDERAL BUDGET SPECIAL
03:29:48TOMORROW. I AM ASSUMING AND JUST GOING TO
03:29:51TAKE A CHANCE THAT I'M RIGHT,
03:29:55YES, YOU'RE NODDING, YOU'RE
03:30:02HOS
03:30:04HOSTING BUDGET DAY ON THE
03:30:08RADIO. >> David: I HAVE TO GET BACK TO THE STUDIO.
03:30:11THANKS A LOT.
03:30:13CATHERINE CULLEN, BYE BYE.
03:30:16SUPPORTERS OF OUTGOING MAINE
03:30:18REPUBLICAN SENATOR SUSAN COLLINS EXPRESSING
03:30:22DISAPPOINTMENT AFTER SHE CONCEDED TO THE DEMOCRAT LAST NIGHT.
03:30:25>> I FEEL LIKE THE NEXT TWO YEARS IS GOING TO BE ROUGH.
03:30:28YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GOING TO TRY
03:30:31TO IMPEACH TRUMP AND HONESTLY,
03:30:33I CAN'T BLAME 'EM. I FEEL LIKE WE LOST TONIGHT
03:30:37BECAUSE OF HIM. >> I AM ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHED.
03:30:41THE SENATOR HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB OF CAMPAIGNING ACROSS THE STATE.
03:30:44>> I THINK IT'S A VERY SAD DAY
03:30:47FOR THE STATE OF MAINE BECAUSE
03:30:49I THINK MAINERS REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GETTING.
03:30:53>> COLLINS HAS BEEN A SENATOR
03:30:55FOR MAINE SINCE 1997.
03:30:57SHE RAN UNOPPOSED ON THE
03:31:00REPUBLICAN PRIMARILY BALLOT THIS TIME. NOW THOUGH THAT POLITICAL
03:31:03CAREER IS OVER. NOR RESULTS AND GO DIRECTLY TO
03:31:06OUR REPORTER IN MAINE STRAIGHT AHEAD HERE ON "CBC MORNING
03:31:08LIVE."
03:33:02>> David: AN INCREDIBLE RACE IN
03:33:09MISSISSIPPI. THE DEMOCRAT SCOTT
03:33:12COLUM HOLDING A VERY NARROW LEAD.
03:33:14IT LOOKS TIED BUT HE HAS A CUP
03:33:18-- A FEW DOZEN MORE VOTES THAN HE DOES AT THIS POINT.
03:33:2296% AS YOU SEE IN THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER OF THE VOTES HAVE
03:33:25BEEN COUNTED. WE WOULD NOTE THERE IS NO
03:33:29AUTOMATIC RECOUNT LAW IN MISSISSIPPI. SO WHAT HAPPENS?
03:33:32COULD GO TO THE COURTS.
03:33:34A DEMOCRAT HAS NOT WON A SENATE
03:33:37RACE IN MISSISSIPPI SINCE 1982
03:33:40AND SCOTT COLUM WOULD BE THE
03:33:43FIRST SENATOR FROM MISSISSIPPI
03:33:45SINCE THE POST CIVIL WAR
03:33:48RECONSTRUCTION RARE IN 1881.
03:33:51LET'S TURN TO SOUTH CAROLINA
03:33:52WHICH HAS DELIVERED A POLITICAL UPSET.
03:33:56THE STATE'S FIRST DEMOCRATIC
03:33:58SENATOR IN OVER A QUARTER CENTURY.
03:34:02>> WE HERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA SENT A CLEAR MESSAGE THIS
03:34:06SENATE SEAT DUE NOT BELONG TO ONE FAMILY, ONE PARTY OR TO
03:34:09WASHINGTON, D.C. [Cheering and applause]
03:34:13>> David: SHE WAS UP AGAINST DARLENE GRAHAM WHO WAS
03:34:15APPOINTED FOLLOWING THE DEATH
03:34:17OF HER BROTHER LINDSEY GRAHAM.
03:34:20ANDREWS RAN A CAMPAIGN AND HEALTHCARE, AFFORDABILITY AND
03:34:23CRITICIZED TRUMP FOR THE WAR IN
03:34:26IRAN'S IMPACT AND GAS PRICES.
03:34:29MAINE DEMOCRAT TROY JACKSON
03:34:33ENDING SUSAN COLLINS' 30-YEAR
03:34:37TENURE AND ENDS A TIGHT RACE DEFINED BY VOTER FRUSTRATION
03:34:40ONCE AGAIN OVER THE COST OF LIVING.
03:34:44MIKE CRAWLEY IN MAINE LOOKING AT THIS UPSET.
03:34:47OVER TO YOU, MIKE.
03:34:50>> Reporter: DAVID, THERE WAS A LOT OF VOTER FRUSTRATION OVER
03:34:53DONALD TRUMP AND MANY, MANY WAYS THE REAL QUESTION HERE IN
03:34:57THIS ELECTION IN MAINE WAS DID
03:35:00THE VOTERS HERE FEEL SUSAN
03:35:03COLLINS, THE LONG TIME INCUP
03:35:04GENT REPUBLICAN SENATOR HAD
03:35:07STOOD UP TO DONALD TRUMP ENOUGH
03:35:09OR HAD SHE SIMPLY GIVEN WAY AND
03:35:12EXCEEDED TO HIS ISSUES.
03:35:14THE VOTERS DELIVERED IS THAT
03:35:18SUSAN COLLINS HADN'T DONE ENOUGH TO DISTANCE HERSELF FROM DONALD TRUMP.
03:35:21SHE INITIALLY SUPPORTED THE WAR
03:35:24IN IRAN AND ONLY REALLY CAME
03:35:26OUT AGAINST HIS TARIFF REGIME
03:35:32SHE HAS BEEN A MAJOR POWER BROKER IN WASHINGTON.
03:35:35CHAIR OF THE SENATE AAPPROPRIATION COMMITTEE WHICH HOLDS THE PURSE STRINGS.
03:35:39THE MAN WHO DEFEATED HER, TROY
03:35:44JACKSON, AN OUTSIDER IN MANY WAYS. HE STARTED OUT HIS WORKING
03:35:47CAREER AS A LOGGER AND ACTIVE
03:35:48IN THE LABOUR MOVEMENT AND HE
03:35:51WAS QUITE PROUD OF HIS WORKING
03:35:53CLASS ROOTS WHEN HE SPOKE TO
03:35:56HIS SUPPORTERS LAST NIGHT.
03:35:57>> I COULDN'T ACCEPT THE
03:36:01WORKING PEOPLE COULD EVERYTHING THEY HAD AND SO LITTLE TO SAY
03:36:04OVER THEIR OWN LIVES.
03:36:06WHEN THE COMPANIES KEPT PUSHING
03:36:10US AROUND, ORGANIZED, STOOD TOGETHER AND WE TRIED TO MAKE
03:36:14THEM LISTEN. TONIGHT, TONIGHT, YOU'VE GIVEN
03:36:17ME THE CHANCE TO TAKE THAT FIGHT TO THE UNITED STATES SENATE.
03:36:19[Applause]
03:36:26TROY JACKSON IS GOING TO BECOME
03:36:28OR POISED TO BECOME THE ONLY
03:36:31SITTING U.S. SENATOR WHO
03:36:32DOESN'T HAVE A FOUR YEAR
03:36:36COLLEGE DEGREE.
03:36:45THE REPUBLICAN HELD SENATE SEATS THAT THE DEMOCRATS
03:36:48MANAGED TO DO. WE THOUGHT MAYBE SUSAN COLLINS
03:36:51WAS GOING TO BUCK THAT TREND.
03:36:55JUST LIKE THE SENATE CANDIDATES
03:36:56PARTICULARLY LOYAL TO DONALD
03:36:59TRUMP, SHE ALSO WENT DOWN IN
03:37:03DEFEAT. DAVID? >> CERTAINLY DID.
03:37:05A BORDER STATE. I WILL ASK WHAT ALL THIS MEANS
03:37:08AS YOU HAVE COVERED OVER THE
03:37:11PAST YEAR-PLUS, MIKE, WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR CANADA AND THE U.S.?
03:37:15>> LET'S TAKE THE CANADA QUESTION FIRST.
03:37:17THE BIG QUESTION ON EVERYBODY'S
03:37:19MIND IS WHAT DOESR DOES THIS
03:37:21MEAN FOR THE TRADE WAR,
03:37:25NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. THERE ARE ALREADY SIGNS THAT AS
03:37:29YOU WERE DISCUSSING WITH
03:37:31CATHERINE MOMENTS AGO THAT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION HAS
03:37:35SHIFTED AWAY. PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY HAS
03:37:38SAID THEY HAVE MADE SOME MOVEMENT ON SOME OF WHAT CANADA
03:37:41CONSIDERED TO BE RED LINES. THIS WAS HAPPENING EVEN BEFORE
03:37:44THE POLLS CLOSED AT THE MIDTERMS. THERE'S A SENSE THAT THE TRUMP
03:37:48ADMINISTRATION WAS SEEING THE WRITING ON THE WALL AND YES,
03:37:50MAYBE CANADA'S GOT A LITTLE
03:37:52MORE LEVERAGE IN THOSE NEGOTIATIONS BUT AS FORMER
03:37:56CANADIAN AMBASSADOR TO THE
03:37:59AMBASSADOR KRISTA HILLMAN SAID ON OUR COVERAGE LAST NIGHT, THE
03:38:03CARNEY GOVERNMENT PROBABLY SHOULDN'T MAKE ANY SUPER SUDDEN MOVES, RIGHT?
03:38:06IF THERE IS PROGRESS HAPPENING IN THE NEGOTIATIONS, DON'T MAKE
03:38:09A BIG DEAL OUT OF THE FACT THAT
03:38:13THE DEMOCRATS JUST WON CONTROL OVER CONGRESS.
03:38:16KEEP ON MOVING IN THAT DIRECTION.
03:38:18ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE
03:38:21DEMOCRATS HAVE SAID WILL BE AMONG THEIR TOP THREE
03:38:24PRIORITIES ONCE THEY'RE SWORN IN WITH THEIR MAJORITY IN THE
03:38:27HOUSE IS TO BRING FORWARD A
03:38:30BILL TO REPEAL TRUMP'S TARIFFS.
03:38:32THAT ISN'T GOING TO BE ENOUGH
03:38:34TO DO THAT BECAUSE OF COURSE
03:38:39TRUMP RETAINS VETO POWER IF
03:38:41VOTES AREN'T PASSED BY FAIRLY
03:38:43BIG BIPARTISAN MARGINS. WHAT'S YOU'RE PROBABLY GOING TO
03:38:47SEE NOT JUST ON TARIFFS BUT ON
03:38:51A LOT OF STUFF IS HORSE TRADING. NEGOTIATIONS. THE DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE PUT
03:38:54FORWARD A SPENDING BILL.
03:38:56STUFF IN IT THAT THE
03:38:59REPUBLICANS DON'T LIKE. TRUMP PULLS OUT HIS VETO
03:39:02SHARPIE BECAUSE HE HAS TO SIGN
03:39:06THOSE BILLS INTO LAW AND YOU GET MEETING BETWEEN THE DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP IN CONGRESS
03:39:10AND THE WHITE HOUSE TO TRY TO
03:39:15HAMMER OUT AN AGREEMENT OURS THERE WILL BE SOME KIND OF STALEMATE.
03:39:18LAST THING, DAVID, BRIEFLY, IF
03:39:22I CAN, I'M SEEING THIS AS THE
03:39:24BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE
03:39:27DONALD TRUMP ERA. THAT HAS BEEN DEFINING FEATURE
03:39:30OF AMERICAN POLITICS FOR THE
03:39:32PAST 11 YEARS.
03:39:34NOW REALLY TODAY IS THE FIRST
03:39:38DAY OF THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE
03:39:432028 PRESIDENCY. THERE'S GOING TO BE A BATTLE
03:39:46AMONG THE REPUBLICANS AS TO WHO
03:39:49HAS THE SUPPORT OF THE MAGA BASE.
03:39:51EVEN WITH THE RESULTS LAST
03:39:54NIGHT, IT'S HARD TO SEE HOW A
03:39:58REPUBLICAN CAN WIN THE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION WITHOUT
03:40:02SUPPORT FROM MAGA AND ON THE
03:40:05DEMOCRAT SIDE THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT DEFINES THEM.
03:40:08DO THEY LOOK FOR A CANDIDATE NO
03:40:11LIKES SOME OF THOSE SENATE
03:40:16CANDIDATES WON IN RED STATES WITH A DOMINANT MESSAGE.
03:40:20IS THAT THE SE CREATE SAUCE THE DEMOCRATS WILL LOOK FOR A 2028
03:40:24PRESS DEN SHALL CANDIDATE.
03:40:26>> David: LET THE JOCKEYING
03:40:29BEGIN. MIKE CRAWLEY IN BANGOR, MAINE. THANK YOU.
03:40:33TURNING OUR ATTENTION TO THE FEDERAL FINANCE MINISTER.
03:40:36THE DAY BEFORE HE TABLES HIS
03:40:39NEXT BUDGET HE IS -- WELL, HE SAID HE'S MAKING HIS OWN SHOE.
03:40:43IT APPEARS TO ME THAT HE IS
03:40:46ASSISTING WHILE HIS OWN SHOE IS MADE.
03:40:49A TRADITION AMONGST FINANCE MINISTERS.
03:40:53THEY TEND TO BUY THEM AND HE'S SAYING MAKE THEM YOURSELF.
03:40:57THE SYMBOLISM FOR HIS BUDGET. DO MORE OURSELVES AT HOME.
03:41:01WHAT CAN WE DO TO ADD VALUE,
03:41:04FOR INSTANCE, TO THE MINERAL
03:41:05THAT ARE BROUGHT UP OUT OF OUR EARTH.
03:41:09WHAT CAN CANADA DO. WE'LL BE HEARING FROM THE
03:41:12FEDERAL FINANCE MINISTER MORE ON THIS TOMORROW -- OH, IS HE SWITCHING CHAIRS THERE?
03:41:16GOING TO BE THE ONE TO MAKE IT.
03:41:21HERE WE GO.
03:41:22THERE WE ARE. FRANÇOIS-PHILIPPE CHAMPAGNE
03:41:26TAKING CONTROL OF THE SEWING MACHINE.
03:41:29IF HE SEWS HIS FINGERS TOGETHER WE'LL HAVE IT FOR YOU LIVE ON
03:41:33CBC NEWS NETWORK.
03:43:45. >> MICHIGANDERS WE WANT OUR TAXES HERE, FOR HEALTHCARE
03:43:48HERE, FOR SCHOOLS HERE, FOR INFRASTRUCTURE HERE. WE DON'T WANT OUR MONEY TO BE
03:43:52SECT FOR APARTHEID OR GENOCIDAL WAR.
03:43:56MIKE, ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT
03:44:01[Cheering and applause] >> I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A HOUSE IN
03:44:04FLORIDA AND TWO YACHTS. SEE, YOU CHOSE HATE AND
03:44:08MICHIGAN CHOSE HOPE.
03:44:12>> David: ABDUL EL-SAYED ONE OF THE BIG WINNERS.
03:44:15HE TOOK MICHIGAN'S OPEN SENATE SEAT.
03:44:18NOW THE FIRST MUSLIM ELECTED TO THE CHAMBER.
03:44:22MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS ARE BLAMING TRUMP FOR THEIR LOSS IN
03:44:25WHAT WAS A TIGHT RACE.
03:44:32>> PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID IF HE
03:44:35WAS ON THE BALLOT WE WOULD HAVE WON BIG.
03:44:38THAT'S HIS EGO. I THINK HE CAUSED A LOT OF THIS.
03:44:41>> I THINK PEOPLE ARE
03:44:45SHORT-SIGHTEDLY FOCUSING ON THINGS LIKE GAS PRICES AND OUR
03:44:47INVOLVEMENT IN THE WAR RATHER
03:44:49THAN LOOKING AT THE LONG-TERM
03:44:53EFFECTS OF THE VOTE THEY'RE CASTING. >> WHEN IT COMES TO
03:44:57CONSERVATIVE WOMEN AND YOUTH, UNDER THE AGE OF 30, TURNOUT IS
03:45:01GOING TO LOOK REMARKLY PRETTY LOW AND THAT'S THE LESSON HERE
03:45:04TO TAKE REALLY.
03:45:07>> A LOT OF EXCITEMENT AT THE
03:45:09DEMOCRATIC VICTORY PARTY WHEN
03:45:13THE RESULTS CAME IN IT WAS EARLY THIS MORNING WHEN THEY
03:45:17DID. MEAGAN FITZPATRICK AND I WERE
03:45:21BOTH AT THAT PARTY WATCHING AS
03:45:22RESULTS CAME IN.
03:45:30IT WAS QUITE CLOSE FOR THE SENATE RACE FOR MUCH OF THE EVENING.
03:45:33>> Reporter: PEOPLE HAD TO WAIT
03:45:36A LONG TIME FOR THE RESULTS TO
03:45:38COME IN AND THEY WERE WAITING FOR A LONG TIME.
03:45:42AT ONE POINT A DANCE PARTY
03:45:43BROKE OUT IN THE VENUE.
03:45:48PEOPLE WERE IN A GREAT MOVE AS THEY AWAYED FOR THE FINAL
03:45:51RESULT TO BE ANNOUNCED FOR THAT
03:45:54SENATE RACE. THIS MORNING WE'RE THE TRYING TO TALK TO PEOPLE, TOO.
03:45:58THE WEATHER IN DETROIT THIS
03:45:59MORNING NOT SUPER PLEASANT BUT
03:46:02NOT DAMPENING THE SPIRITS OF VOTERS HERE.
03:46:05I'VE BEEN ASKING PEOPLE FOR THE REACTION TO THE VOTES TONIGHT.
03:46:09ONE GENTLEMAN SAYING HE'S ECSTATIC.
03:46:11HE HOPES WITH THE DEMOCRATS WINNING THE CONTROL OF THE
03:46:14HOUSE ACCENT NAT, A CHECK ON
03:46:16PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POWER.
03:46:22THAT'S THE SENTIMENT FROM PEOPLE HERE LAST NIGHT.
03:46:25THEY ARE COUNTING ON THE DEMOCRATS FOR CHANGE IN
03:46:29WASHINGTON AND WHEN I WAS TALKING TO PEOPLE ABOUT WHY THEY THINK THE DEMOCRATS WERE
03:46:33HAVING SUCH A GOOD NIGHT AND WHAT WAS GOING ON, A LOT OF
03:46:36PEOPLE SAYING THEY FELT LIKE
03:46:38PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP HAD
03:46:41DEPRAYED AMERICANS AND HASN'T KEPT HIS PROMISE TO AMERICANS
03:46:44THAT HE MADE WHEN HE WAS RUNNING FOR RE-ELECTION AND
03:46:47THAT PROMISE OF MAKING LIFE MORE AFFORDABLE.
03:46:50THE COST OF LIVING NOT JUST IN MICHIGAN BUT IN MANY PARTS OF
03:46:53THE U.S. WAS ON THE MINDS OF VOTERS YESTERDAY. I HEARD THAT OVER AND OVER
03:46:57AGAIN AT THE VOTING STATION WE WERE AT YESTERDAY AND IN THE
03:47:00ROOM LAST NIGHT.
03:47:01PEOPLE SAY THE COST OF GAS AND
03:47:07GROCERIES IS OUT OF CONTROL.
03:47:13WHEN I WAS TALKING TO PEOPLE ABOUT WHY THEY'RE SUPPORTING
03:47:16HIM AND WHAT THEY LIKE ABOUT HIM, MANY OF THEM SAYING THEY
03:47:19FEEL LIKE HE GETS IT, HE GETS WHAT PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH,
03:47:22WHAT HE UNDERSTANDS THE STRUGGLING THAT WORKING PEOPLE
03:47:25ARE FATING RIGHT NOW. THEY ALSO -- SOME OF THEM
03:47:28SAYING THEY'RE REALLY PROUD OF HIM FOR THE CAMPAIGN THAT HE
03:47:32RAN AND ALL THE CHALLENGES THAT
03:47:34HE OVERCAME INCLUDING ATTACKS
03:47:40ON HIM AND HIS MUSLIM FAITH.
03:47:43A LOT OF PEOPLE PAYING TRIBUTE TO HIM ON HOW HE CONDUCTED
03:47:46HIMSELF DURING THE CAMPAIGN.
03:47:50SOME PEOPLE SAID THEY BACKED
03:47:51HIS OPPONENT IN THE PRIMARY
03:47:54HALEY STEPHENS. IT TOOK THEM A WHILE TO GET
03:47:58AROUND TO LOOKING EL-SAYED AND NOW THEY ARE BEHIND HIM.
03:48:01LET'S TAKE A LISTEN TO WHAT
03:48:03SOME OF EL-SAYED SAID IN HIS
03:48:06SPEECH TO THE PACKED ROOM. >> DO NOT SEND ME TO D.C. ALL BY MYSELF.
03:48:10ALL RIGHT.
03:48:11I NEED YOU ALL TO COME WITH ME.
03:48:15WINNING A SINGLE U.S. SENATE SEAT WAS NEVER THE GOAL.
03:48:17THE GOAL IS TO USE THAT SEAT TO TRANS FORM OUR POLITICS BECAUSE
03:48:21IT'S HIGH PASTIME WE GET MONEY
03:48:27OUT OF... THE BEAUTY AND SOUL
03:48:29OF AMERICA IS WE THE PEOPLE ARE
03:48:33WHAT AMERICA IS ALL ABOUT. WE DESERVE AN AMERICA FOR ALL
03:48:36FOR KIDS. MICHIGAN, LET'S GO BUILD IT.
03:48:39THANK YOU SO MUCH.
03:48:41>> THAT WAS ONE OF HIS MAIN THEMES.
03:48:44MONEY OUT OF POLITICS, MONEY IN
03:48:47YOUR POCKET, HEALTHCARE FOR ALL.
03:48:49A LOT OF VOTERS SAY THAT REALLY RESONATED WITH THEM.
03:48:52NOW A LOT OF PEOPLE, TOO, DAVID WERE TELL MEG LAST NIGHT THAT
03:48:55THE WORK BEGINS NOW TOWARDS 2028.
03:48:58THE NEXT ELECTION HERE IN THE
03:49:01U.S.
03:49:03THAT THEIR ATTENTION IS QUITE QUICKLY GOING TO SHIFT FOR THAT
03:49:07FOR THE DEMOCRATS LOOKING TOWARDS WHO MILE BE THE NEW
03:49:11FRESH LEADERS IN THEIR PARTY THAT MIGHT BE THE NOMINEE IN
03:49:142028 BUT A LOT OF TIMES TO GO BEFORE THEN.
03:49:18FIRST THINGS FIRST. ALL THE NEW SENATORS AND GOVERNORS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
03:49:22AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE ALSO BE SWORN IN
03:49:24AND A LOT OF PEOPLE IN DETROIT
03:49:26AND MICHIGAN NOW COUNTING ON
03:49:29ABDUL EL-SAYED TO BE ONE OF
03:49:31THOSE NEW LEADERS IN
03:49:36WASHINGTON. >> David: MEAGAN FITZPATRICK, THANK YOU. CANADIAN OFFICIAL ALSO NO DOUBT
03:49:40STRIKE TO SEEK A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LEGISLATORS.
03:49:43TRUMP OF COURSE REMAINS PRESIDENT AND SOME OF THOSE WATCHING CLOSELY FROM CANADA
03:49:47ARE U.S. DUAL CITIZENS.
03:49:49ANGIE SETH SPEAKING WITH SOME ABOUT JUST THAT.
03:49:53>> THAT THAT'S RIGHT, DAVID. WE DID SPEAK WITH THEM.
03:49:55MEMBERS OF DEMOCRATS ABROAD FOLLOWING THIS VERY CLOSELY.
03:49:59DUAL CITIZENS HERE HAVING VOTE UNDER THE MIDTERMS.
03:50:03WE SPOKE WITH COLLEEN
03:50:10MAHAFFY-NIXON. THE RESONGS IS WE NEED TO SEE A LEVEL OF CHANGE FOR AMERICANS
03:50:13AND KAIRDS AS WELL.
03:50:17NOT QUITE ECSTATIC WITH THE RESULTS.
03:50:20AMERICANS HAVE SPOKEN AND SAID THERE NEEDS TO BE CHANGE, A
03:50:23SHIFT AND NOT JUST FOR
03:50:25AMERICANS BUT FOR CANADIANS AS
03:50:27WELL AND FOR WHAT IT'S GOING TO MEAN FOR US IN CANADA.
03:50:31TAKE A LISTEN TO WHAT SHE HAS TO SAY. >> THEY'RE NOT HAPPY WITH HOW
03:50:35THINGS HAVE BEEN GOING. LIFE IS GETTING HARDER FOR
03:50:38EVERYONE IN AMERICA AND BEEN IMPACTING ALL OF US HERE IN
03:50:41CANADA, WHETHER WE'RE AMERICAN OR CANADIAN. HOPEFULLY THE CHANGES WILL
03:50:45START TO COME SOON OVER THE
03:50:47NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS ONCE THE DEMOCRATS ARE SWORN IN JANUARY
03:50:51AND SEE THAT START TO SHIFT. >> SORT OF THAT MAR RUTTIVE
03:50:55AROUND NEEDING TO SEE A SHIFT. SOMETHING CANADIANS WE SPOKE TO
03:50:58HAVE SAID WHEN IT COMES TO THE ECONOMY HERE IN CANADA.
03:51:01WHEN IT COMES TO BUSINESSES,
03:51:03WHEN IT COMES TO EVERYDAY LIFE
03:51:05AND THE COST OF LIVING.
03:51:08WE SPOKE TO A FEW OF THEM TODAY GETTING REACTION FROM THE
03:51:11RESULTS THAT HAVE COME OUT AND THE SENSE OF CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM,
03:51:14PERHAPS, DAVID, IF YOU WILL,
03:51:16THAT WE MIGHT SEE THINGS SHIFT
03:51:19TOWARDS BETTER WATERS VERSUS
03:51:21THE TUMULTUOUS ONES, THE ROLLER
03:51:24COSTAR WE'VE BEEN SEEING NOW.
03:51:28>> YOU HAVE TO BE OPTIMISTIC.
03:51:31ONCE THINGS WILL BE NORMALIZED
03:51:33WE CAN LOOK FORWARD AND THINK FOR THE BRIGHTER SIDE
03:51:37>> WITH THE CHANGE IN THE SEATS NOT SURE IF THAT'S GOING TO BE
03:51:40A STRONG INFLUENCE FOR GOING FORWARD BUT HOPING FOR SOME
03:51:43CHANGE AND FOR BETTER OUTCOMES.
03:51:46IN TERMS OF CHANGE, NOW LET'S
03:51:49ZONE IT INTO THE BUSINESS MODEL HERE AND WHAT IT'S MEANT FOR
03:51:52BUSINESSES IN CANADA. NOT JUST THE LARGE MANUFACTURERS BUT THE SMALL BUSINESSES AS WELL.
03:51:56IN FACT, A SURVEY CONDUCTED BY
03:51:58THE CANADIAN FEDERATION OF INDEPENDENT BUSINESS NOTE ADD
03:52:01THIRD OF SMALL BUSINESSES HAD BEEN FEELING OR CONTINUE TO
03:52:05FEEL THE PINCH OVER THIS TRADE WAR.
03:52:07NOW WITH WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE A
03:52:09SENSE OF CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM AND A WAY FORWARD.
03:52:13MORE FROM THE CANADIAN FEDERATION OF INDEPENDENT
03:52:17BUSINESS. >> HAVE TO SEE IF, FOR EXAMPLE,
03:52:19SOME OF THE DECISIONS REGARDING
03:52:22TARIFFS ARE OVERTURNED.
03:52:25CERTAIN SECTIONS OF U.S. LAW,
03:52:28TAX LAW WERE INVOKED WHERE SORT
03:52:32OF CONTRARY. IS IT GOING TO -- ARE SOME OF
03:52:34THE TARIFFS GOING TO BE REHOED
03:52:38IN THE SHORT-TERM. THAT'S ONE INTERESTING
03:52:41IMPORTANT THING TO WATCH.
03:52:45>> Reporter: AGAIN, THOSE TARIFFS, WHAT IS GOING TO
03:52:47HAPPEN WHEN IT COMES TO THE
03:52:53NARRATIVE AROUND THE TARIFFS. A LOT TO LOOK FOR, DAVID, BUT
03:52:57-- BUSINESSES ARE CERTAINLY WATCHING IT VERY, VERY CLOSELY
03:53:00AS ARE CANADIANS IN GENERAL. >> David: ABSOLUTELY. ANGIE SETH, THANK YOU VERY
03:53:03MUCH. WE CONTINUE THE OUR PROGRAMMING
03:53:06FROM HERE IN MICHIGAN.
03:53:10>> IN EUROPE, I THINK IT'S OVERRATED.
03:53:14SO MANY THINGS HAVE BEEN SET IN MOTION THAT WILL CON.
03:53:18I DO THINK THE WAKE-UP CALL
03:53:20THAT TRUMP CREATED HAS IN A WAY
03:53:22BEEN GOOD FOR EUROPE. >> THIS IS THE FIRST DAY I'VE
03:53:26LIVED IN EUROPE I HAVEN'T APOLOGIZED FOR BEING AN AMERICAN.
03:53:29I ACTUALLY FEEL DIFFERENTLY. I WAS ALWAYS SO PROUD TO BE AMERICAN.
03:53:33I WAS PROUD OF WHAT OUR COUNTRY STOOD FOR AND WHAT WE HAVE
03:53:36ACHIEVED. THEN THAT TOOK A COMPLETE TURN
03:53:40AND I'M EMBARRASSED TO BE
03:53:42AMERICAN.
03:53:45>> I HAVE THAT OLD FEELING NOW OF, LIKE, IT'S GOING TO BE
03:53:48OKAY. >> David: REACTION FROM EUROPE.
03:53:52MUCH MORE FROM AROUND THE WORLD AND OF COURSE THE U.S. AND CANADA.
03:53:55WE'RE GOING TO HAVE IT ALL FOR YOU HERE ON CBC NEWS NETWORK.
03:53:58[♪♪]
03:56:09[♪♪] >> David: ALL RIGHT. A MAJOR SHIFT IN POWER COMING
03:56:12FOR WASHINGTON, D.C.
03:56:14THE DEMOCRATS SEIZING POWER
03:56:16FROM -- FOR BOTH THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
03:56:19AND IN A DECISIVE FASHION IN A
03:56:23WAY THAT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR THE WHITE HOUSE CHALLENGE.
03:56:26I DO WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY WHO HELPED PUT TOGETHER THIS
03:56:30SHOW FROM MICHIGAN. A BIG EFFORT. THANK YOU. I'M DAVID COMMON. [♪♪]
04:00:49WASHINGTON THIS HOUR. DEMOCRATS WILL TAKE CONTROL OF
04:00:52CONGRESS IN JANUARY. THEY ONLY REQUIRED THREE SEATS TO WIN THE HOUSE.
04:00:55SO FAR, THEY HAVE PICKED UP MORE
04:00:58THAN TWO DOZEN BUT
