Angry at me. Again. Here. Eight foreign office. If you let them. Who had pleaded. And it actually institute president John. He did he is now leading them more we're following this a little bit and suddenly he went meeting. And that's very offensive but I didn't client names to be that white America stands ready to work with president from. And our government to rebuild America and return dignity and the white working class. How important if it. Anything that presidents from. Use his platform. She's speaking out more forcefully against this segment of Americans. And comfort and familiarity. And he's threatened him into the ministry and especially anything Alec Baldwin on that Fidel. This need to address this more importantly. USE. I think if he means what he says about inclusiveness and about togetherness in the country moving together he asked him. He has said in the in the past after first claiming he'd really know David duke was he finally said yes I denounce like announcement announcer I don't want his support but. If he's going to be out there David duke and other white supremacist would be a meter forces in here yes yes the me back there because this. Confirms frankly the worst suspicions people had about the trump campaign now account presidencies that it's been up front for white supremacist for the so called all right. And and horse they are free to support anyone they want and you is not that's not. From for possibility. What if they're gonna invoke his meaning and talk about that movement in that sense that yes I think at some point he's gonna have to be more forceful denunciations and and making clear that's out there there are hate groups out there that don't reflect his values and shouldn't. Reflect the values of the White House. Rick I would agree with you that I think he does need to make it a clear statements denouncing David duke and and sentiments like that but he can't also get directed to constantly. Having to respond to any person any fringe group that comes out of the woodwork to say they support Donald Trump I think he needs to. Address the issue and then try to put it be nice. Rico. Why don't agree that either but. But you know there is a danger that you'll be spending you know for years having to answer to the various treats of David duke. And and I get I don't. I don't think it's his responsibility to every time anyone objectionable says they like now from satellites you back. He does as healthy points out he sets the bar itself but what he chooses to respond to a real time. And that sets up a certain dynamic that he has that he did he may be asked to respond to do. I thought I think it I think he be forceful about it in the right setting the setting is popping out of inauguration day I don't think he's under any obligation to tonight. Say something about it but. He'll you know hoping as a news conference soon LB is the chance to answer questions in the hope he gets an interview soon and those are those are very legitimate questions ask now president of the United States. Hey Rick I know we've been we've been hammering you with questions here -- if you would want more. Not a word you're way ahead. What do they had no job I'm not satisfied on the deafness and I'm not gonna go there. I was struck by. Piece of data that we got back from Gary Langer are are polling czar over triggered a BC I asked him that poll about stress levels around the unite here now. Any found that you know more than 60% of people voted for Hillary Clinton have had their stress levels elevated many of them. Truly elevated. By the inauguration and on the flip side. People who voted for down from. That's more than 30% say they're they're less stress than their life as a consequence. The inauguration to I wonder what you would say to people out there who were feeling real dread about the tableau we've been. The temple lows we've been witnessing all day with this man taking office. On the one hand what do you say to those folks who were really worried and what you say on the other hand to folks who argue who think that this is really the answer to their prayers. Well I think the first thing I'd say is by Dan's book and download the 10% happier a podcast. And and in that you go a long way toward that well for him it was not miss that it was 10% happy I love you. How real on a kiss another pick up. Elderly and when you start out like remember I have to do it acts locks that lasted well into. I think you know. Well I've told people that that a nasty about it directly I said look if you were if you are supporting their President Obama. President Obama has charted a very interesting ports for you in terms of the threats that they should aptly that's watch his speeches listen to what he has. Because he in my mind has taken to heart the idea of the American experiment he ran. Robots and and one that takes us and very strange directions sometimes. And in the country in the hours and you know I think people that that it. Realize how fast easy your period went four years goes by pretty quickly. And you can you have the opportunity to act. That's the great thing about the country it will be another election is a chance it did to roll back anything it just got done just like. Lots of folks that they just had their say the only thing I would say is that. You know everyone knows someone who voted on the other side and I have a conversation rather than just dismissed out of hand their position I think. At least gives you some some lightning. And there are lots of Smart people whose wants are people on both sides of this campaign this election and they they they get to dictate the terms as well.
