Speaker 1: That's a Bloomberg business flash, Tom and Mike Karen Moscow,

22
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: thank you very much. Well, the President has made a

23
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: decision about offshore drilling off the Atlantic coast that was

24
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: due out today and the question was would he allow

25
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: additional drilling leases off the coast of Virginia. He says no,

26
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: he is going to bar Atlantic coast oil drilling. That's

27
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: a reversal of earlier policies. However, time it's not clear

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: exactly what impact that will have, given that we have

29
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: more oil than we want right now. Anyway, Yeah, well,

30
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a debate and it's out there. I guess.

31
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: It's an active president, very high in the ratings and

32
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: as well. It's always good to have e j. Deone

33
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: with us, of course, always writing up in the Washington Post.

34
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: But he has trotted out a new book which he

35
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: is perfectly timed the collapse of the Republican Party. Why

36
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,919
Speaker 1: the Right Went Wrong? Uh, e J Deone on conservatism

37
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,919
Speaker 1: and really a most interesting historical view of the path

38
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: of the right. Always through the prism of Mr dion

39
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: E j Um. I love the phrase Goldwater is um,

40
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: which so much gets to the morphing of a U

41
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: H two oh into where we are as we go

42
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: to Florida and Ohio, this evening defined for us modern

43
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: day Goldwater is um. I love that phrase. Well Goldwater Um,

44
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: we remember him as a person, and he was a

45
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: very warm, agreeable, uh person. He was, you know, candid

46
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: and principle. So none of this is about gold Water

47
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: the guy, and later in life he actually became more

48
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: moderate himself. But to go back to the original Goldwater

49
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: campaign in nine and the promises he made, um, these

50
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: were all basically tea party sort of promises, will roll

51
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: back government on every front. Uh. You know, he said,

52
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: I don't mean to reform government because I intend to

53
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: cut it. Uh. And that's where a large part of

54
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: the Republican Party has moved. Um. I say if I

55
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: thank you so much for what you said about the book. Um.

56
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: I was very gratified by a review I just got

57
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: from National Review, which is a conservative magazine, disagrees with

58
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: the book, disagrees with me, and yet it argued the

59
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: review by a guy called a scholar called. Henry Olsen

60
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: argued that conservatives do have to come to terms of

61
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: my argument that if they carry goldwater Ism on indefinitely,

62
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: they will have a real problem because Goldwaterism doesn't speak

63
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: It was an anemology that came out of nine. It

64
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: doesn't speak to what the party needs to do. Now.

65
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: In your ute, you used to be with al Hunt

66
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: in the smoke filled rooms at these conventions. Can you

67
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: fathom what Cleveland will be this summer? Smoke filled or not? Right,

68
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: there'll be smoke free, smoke filled rooms. How do you

69
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,839
Speaker 1: how do you get your head around that? Um, it's

70
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: it's almost impossible to fathom. We haven't had anything like

71
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: this really since the fifties and in some ways since earlier.

72
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: Other than that, because and it tells you something about

73
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: the nature of the Trump candidacy. Normally, a candidate who

74
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: built this kind of lead would be embraced by his

75
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: party and the people leaders of the party would say,

76
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: all right, let's get out of the way. This guy

77
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: has secured the nomination. Let's end this thing. Uh. Instead,

78
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: quite the opposite is happening, and large parts of the

79
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: party are saying, no, let's keep this thing going, to

80
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: keep him from getting the delegates. I think the Republicans,

81
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: if things turn out the way they well looked to

82
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: turn out now, which is, Trump ends up with a

83
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: plurality but not a majority of delegates. Um, the party

84
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: faces bad choices either way. They don't put Trump on

85
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: the ticket, and you know, they don't nominate Trump, in

86
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: which case you've got a mass rebellion of all the

87
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: people bowl who voted for him. I just somehow can't

88
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: see Trump accepting that lightly. Maybe he'll be gentle about it,

89
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: but I don't think so. Um. Or on the other side, Um,

90
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: they do nominate Trump and face substantial losses because he's

91
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: clearly running well behind Hillary Clinton. He's got a huge

92
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: disadvantage among women voters. Uh So it's gonna be very

93
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: tough on the party. Is it over for the Republicans? Um?

94
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: You know, I predicting the death of a major political

95
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: party is always problematic. The Republicans split down the middle

96
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: of nine twelve and actually William Howard Taffrey and third

97
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt, the dissenting Republican rand second, running as a progressive.

98
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 1: They recouped after losing the Roosevelt in thirty six Goldwater

99
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: and sixty four loss. Uh So, I don't know if

100
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: it's over. I think that the Republican Party as it

101
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: now exists maybe over. I don't know, if you were

102
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: lace the Republican Party. I think it's more likely that

103
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: they go through a period of turmoil and become something

104
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: a little different. Ron Forni of the Atlantic Group, you know,

105
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: on Ultra of Mine, he has an interesting piece in

106
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: the Atlantic today suggesting that what this campaign has done

107
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: has defined deviancy down to use the old mony hand phrase,

108
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: in such a way that politics may not recover for

109
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: a very long time. Um again, I'm sometimes you have

110
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: to hit bot to come up and so, um. I

111
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: think that what we're going to have trouble we're covering

112
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 1: from is not this campaign, although I agree with Ron

113
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: that particularly on the Republican side, particularly after that debate

114
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: in which we were talking about the size of body parts.

115
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if you have told me, I think I've

116
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: said this before, that you know a group of presidential

117
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: candidates were talking the way they were talking, I would

118
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 1: have told you it's propaganda by enemies of the United States. Um.

119
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: But I think the real question is can we govern

120
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: ourselves after this election? UM. And you know, one of

121
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: the problems, one of the reasons there is all this discontent,

122
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: UM is because the Republicans just haven't been able to

123
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: or willing to work with President Obama on anything. We've

124
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: had this deep divide and I don't know if we're

125
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: going to this election we'll heal that it all. Let's

126
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: come back EJ. Deon with us the book Why the

127
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: Right Went Wrong? Conservatism from very Goldwater to the Tea Party.

128
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: E J. Don has the courage to go beyond Why

129
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: the Right Went Wrong. We'll come back with Mr Deon

130
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,120
