You know, 175 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 13: it's in and out of that of that moment, and 176 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 13: when it hits a high and you feel it, it's 177 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 13: a flush through your body and it gets no better. 178 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 8: Corbyn Carroll, the rookie afield the three hits, two runs, 179 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 8: two RBIs The Phillies only had eleven hits over the 180 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 8: last two games of the series.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 194 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 3: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. It has now been three 195 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 3: weeks since the House voted out Kevin McCarthy is its speaker. Today, 196 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: Republicans are putting up their fourth nominee, helping a Trump ally, 197 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 3: Mike Johnson of Louisiana, breaks the deadlock that has paralyzed Congress. 198 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 3: That's as the former president faces new pressure in a 199 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 3: couple of the half dozen legal cases against him, lots 200 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 3: to get to this morning with Greg Valier, Chief US 201 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 3: Policy stre just at AGF Investments, and Greg is with me. 202 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 5: Now. 203 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: I'm reminded of that old saying about trying the same 204 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 3: thing over and over again and expecting a different result. 205 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 3: What should we expect from this latest nominee on the 206 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: House floor? 207 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 15: Greg, Yeah, the definition of insanity, Nathan. They keep trying this. 208 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 15: This fellow Mike Johnson, who nobody's ever heard of, has 209 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 15: a chance. He's popular within the party. He could come close, 210 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 15: but he can only afford to lose four or five votes, 211 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 15: and he's an uphill battle. This could drag on, and 212 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 15: it's a serious story. If you want to see aid 213 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 15: for Israel, or aid for Ukraine or something for the 214 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 15: US southern border, everything's frozen right now. 215 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: What gives Mike Johnson the chance that Tom Emmer, Steve Scalise, 216 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 3: Jim Jordan didn't have? 217 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 15: Well in a word or two, Donald Trump, I think 218 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 15: Trump would probably support Johnson. Trump very outspoken against Tom 219 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 15: Emmer of Minnesota. In fact, Trump boasted yesterday that I 220 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 15: killed that nomination. Well, it sounds like Trump has a 221 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 15: veto power over House Republicans. But Trump is a supporter 222 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 15: of Mike Johnson. 223 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: Trump was also a supporter of Jim Jordan and has 224 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 3: been failed. So why could Mike Johnson do better this time? 225 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 15: I think he might have more a wider support. But 226 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 15: I've got to tell you there's one crazy wild card 227 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 15: that emerged late yesterday, and that would be to reinstate 228 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 15: Kevin McCarthy as speaker and make Jim Jordan assistant speaker. 229 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 15: I suppose crazier things have happened, but people were talking 230 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 15: about that late yesterday. 231 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: Before we get to that possibility, we do have to 232 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: get through an expected floor vote for Mike Johnson. As 233 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 3: you mentioned, he is a Trump ally, and we've also 234 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 3: been reporting in the past that he was a part 235 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 3: of the effort to return the twenty twenty election result. 236 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 3: What would a speaker Mike Johnson mean for the House 237 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 3: of Representatives. 238 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 15: Well, it polarizes things, obviously, to have somebody who is 239 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 15: a denier that Biden is actually a legitimate president. I 240 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 15: think that doesn't help you continue to alienate the Democrats 241 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 15: who are not interested in helping Republicans. But I suspect 242 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 15: in the final analysis, involvement of some Democrats as a possibility. 243 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 3: Okay, what about the possibility of government shut down? The 244 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 3: aid requests that President Biden has been looking for, not 245 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 3: just for foreign aid, but this report now from the 246 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 3: Washington Post that he's preparing a fifty billion dollars domestic 247 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: aid request to Congress. 248 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, there's a lot of stake here. First of all, 249 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 15: aid to Israel and Ukraine, aid for the US border, 250 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 15: a budget which has a deadline of November seventeenth, and 251 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 15: now this news story that you cite the Washington Post. 252 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 15: You're not going to be able to get any of 253 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 15: this stuff done without a speaker. 254 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: You mentioned that President Trump may have veto power in 255 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 3: the House. He's facing new legal pressure now with this 256 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: new development that Mark Meadows, the former White House chief 257 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 3: of staff, has been granted immunity in the federal twenty 258 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 3: twenty election case. This seems like a pretty significant development. 259 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:26,239 Speaker 7: Is it? 260 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 2: It? 261 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 15: Sure is, Nathan. The word of the week is flip flipping. 262 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 15: Are we going to see even more former Trump aids 263 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 15: flip and decide they're going to cooperate with investigators? We're 264 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 15: getting to a point where there's going to be an 265 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 15: avalanche of testimony against Trump. This has been a very 266 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 15: difficult week for him. 267 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: How significant could Mark Meadows testimony in particular be in 268 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: a special Council trial over the twenty twenty election. 269 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 15: It's huge. I mean, he knows where all the bodies 270 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 15: are buried, he knows what happened. He also may continue 271 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 15: to lead a domino effect where others cooperate, maybe even 272 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 15: Rudy Giuliani. So I think that Trump is facing his 273 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 15: greatest challenge and can't rule out Trump going to jail. 274 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 3: Wow, that's a really significant statement just there. But of course, 275 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 3: in our last thirty seconds, the former president has managed 276 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 3: to turn all these legal battles to his political advantage. 277 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 3: Can he continue to do so? 278 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 15: He's a master at delaying and delaying and delaying. He 279 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 15: could delay even further. But I do think this is 280 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,479 Speaker 15: an avalanche of testimony that is not going to help him. 281 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 282 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 283 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast, feat at six am 284 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 285 00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 2: get your podcasts. 286 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: You can also oh listen live each morning starting at 287 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: five am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to 288 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, 289 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one oh sixty one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety 290 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: sixty in San Francisco. 291 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 292 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
