why is wisconsin a special case? >> guest: it's interesting, because, of course, republicans haven't won wisconsin except in huge landslide election victories. for instance, ronald reagan won wisconsin twice in his elections. normally, this is a state that stays pretty blue. scott walker got elected in 2010 and put in place the act x reforms. it's paid a lot of dividends. in fact, one study that just came out in march -- excuse me, late february, showed that the state and local governments have saved about $5 billion over five years thanks to the act x reforms. so they were a able to stay away from layoffs, they were able to use money wisely. that's the type of message, of course, that republicans are talking about usually when they're talking about trimming government and trimming regulations and making things work more efficiently. so there's an opening there for the republican message that scott walker and the wisconsin republicans have opened up. that's ten electoral college votes. so that's better than colorado,

why is wisconsin special? to make they have not one wisconsin except landslide victories but normally the state is blue but scott walker was elected 2010 input for a very divisive issue but it has paid a lot of dividends and one study just came out in march that showed the state and local governments paid $5 million over five years so they could stay away from layoffs to use the money wisely that is what republicans are talking about when they say trim government and regulation to make things work more efficiently so there is the message there for the wisconsin republicans to open up an electoral college votes better then colorado or new hampshire that is the key state for both parties because it says something about the reach of the national message if they take wisconsin out bin that resets bill whole rust belt show that strength that would be very difficult for a democrat to counter. >> what is your day job? >> times senior editor a duke twice a week podcast on politics and culture in also write columns for

republicans haven't actually quite won wisconsin yet. but because of some of the changes that occurred over the last two years, they have a pretty good opportunity there. the idea is to find out who the voters are because they keep the uri in this book is the reason why republicans went to elections in those counties but can't win presidential elections is because they've got sent to the voters are on the local level. >> let's go to hamilton county, ohio. who are the voters interviewed that republicans have lost and how to make it about? >> it's an interesting case because it's the only county that has a net population loss over the last two decades. the challenges are more about population growth, people coming in from other parts of the country, carrying what you call their native political elections with them. hamilton county is the one where people have left and had a pretty significant population decreased over the last 30 to 40 years. the people who are left are the people who didn't have a economic mobility to have those options t

in 1859, she grew up in the farming community in wisconsin. in her experience, men and women were both so indispensable to the success of farm life that few couples quibbled over whose work was more important. great put it, woman's practical usefulness and highly developed judgment place them, for all practical purposes on equal footing with men. such a perspective was consistent with her family's religious views. when her mother heard anna howard shaw lecture at the family's free congregationalist church promoting the women's right to vote, she was captivated by the words of this pioneering minister and physician. she later told her daughter she felt quite indignant that women did not have the same rights as men and belle's brother agreed. stating, matter-of-factly "i do not see any reason why i should cannot." elle lesson number four -- be fearless and challenge authority. she refused to accept the deferential role assigned to girls. a friend recalled that she recently discomfited her teachers by questioning and challenging things that were

why wisconsin a special case? >> is interesting because republicans haven't won wisconsin. for us, ronald reagan won wisconsin twice in his election. normally this is a date that stays pretty blue. scott walker got it in 2010 in the afghan reforms or this is a very divisive issue in the state of wisconsin, but it's paid a lot of dividend. one study that just came out in late february showed the state and local governments had saved $5 billion over five years. that's the message people are talking about when they talk about trimming government regulation and making things work more efficiently. scott walker and the wisconsin republicans have opened a period that is 10 electoral college votes. that is better than colorado. that's certainly better than new hampshire. the electoral college vote is usually can edit a keith vote for parties to win because it says something about the reach of their national message. if republicans pick wisconsin out of the democrats and put it into their policy, they really think it's feasible to do that. that really resets the whole midwest rust

2004 so we are looking at places like florida, virginia, ohio north carolina in hampshire colorado and wisconsin because of the changes that have occurred there is a great opportunity to find of good they are the reason why republicans win the statewide elections they lost touch with the voters. >> go to hamilton county ohio who are some of the voters they have lost? and the camel to county is interesting because it has a net population and loss. the challenges are more about growth from other parts of the country the their native predilections. it is one where they have a significant population so those who have the economic mobility but they don't work than high-priced firms or to put food on the table and they have an opportunity to make a case or what their issues are but the problem that you have with the republican party at one point was one of the most republican parties and a republican state. hamilton county was a very read county over the last two presidential elections one of the reasons the republicans will message -- message the economy with the ideological and philosophical that th

if we look at the way things played out in wisconsin, donald trump lost wisconsin and the first congressional district went to ted cruz. so why should they support you -- why should speaker ryan fall in line behind donald trump when the will of the people and voters there in the first congressional district do not appear to be with speaker -- donald trump. sorry about that. >> that's a great question. i apologize for speaking over you. the will of the people of the country have spoken. the first district did break for cruz but i would point out that paul ryan's hometown, they voted for trump. paul ryan's own hometown, if you look closely there is a billboard that says people need food assistance in speaker paul ryan's own hometown. you take those things an put them together sand say, paul ryan says he's for smaller government and passes 1.8 trillion omnibus. i'm not having it but speaker ryan delivered it. paul ryan was elected to congress in 1998. the vaunt budget guru. i have to chuckle at that. if i put a pile of money in front of you, erica, does that make you a budget guru you can spent

a wisconsin native, mary babula attended the university of wisconsin madison and graduated with a degree in social work. later her work with children as a part-time volunteer at a madison day care center while in college. she later worked as a teacher and director at christian day-care center in madison. in 1971, mary began working with the wisconsin early childhood association, otherwise known as weca, and later became the organization's executive director. during her years at weca, mary led the organization through a wide variety of instrumental changes. the establishment of the federal child-care and development block grant signaled new opportunities for weca to increase its direct impact on childhood education and development. through this program, weca managed quality improvement grants and established the wisconsin child-care improvement project. this project spurred the development of child-care resources and referral agencies throughout wisconsin which provided parents a clear and responsible guide when selecting child care. in the 2000's, weca began to administer the reward wisc

wisconsin is actually an interesting case count because republicans have not one wisconsin yet because of some of the changes that occurred the last few years i think they have a pretty good opportunity there. the idea is to find out who those voters are because the key theory in this book is the reason why republicans win local estate elections in those counties began when presidential elections is because they have lost to the voters are at the national level on the local level. >> let's go to hamilton county, ohio, cincinnati. for some of the voters in your view that republicans have lost and how can they get them back? >> that's an interesting case, hamilton county is an interesting case, hamilton county is an interesting case because it's the only county with a net population loss over the last few decades. all of the rest the challenges are more about population growth, people coming in from other parts of the country carrying what they will call their native political set of elections with them. hamilton county is the one where people have had a significant population decrease o

that's the message city officials are sending parents in wisconsin in shawano, wisconsin. is that how you pronounce it? the parents have 90 days to stop their kid's bullying behavior. if that child continues to be a bully, they can fine the parents more than $350. a second offense will cost parents close to $700. can we do this with adults? the new law includes both physical and cyber bullying to take place anywhere within the city limits. >>> on this day in 1802 the u.s. government incorporated washington, d.c. as a city. it had already replaced philadelphia as the nation's capital. george washington laid the city out as a diamond shape along the potomac river taking land from both maryland and virginia. virginia later took back its land after a fight over slavery. during the war of 1812 british troops captured washington, d.c. and set fire to many of the buildings there. historians say a severe storm helped put out the flames. over the years there have been movements to make d.c. the 51st state and name it new columbia after a big step for our nation's capital 214 years

one of the most vulnerable senate republicans is ron johnson of wisconsin, chairman of the committee on homeland security. a prominent businessman, johnson won his seat 6 years ago by defeating democratic incumbent, russ feingold. now, the two are locked in a rematch, with the most recent real clear politics poll of polls showing feingold with a 5.7% lead. i met with johnson to talk about national security, immigration, and donald trump's impact on his re-election bid. senator, welcome to the program. sen. johnson: thanks for having me. fernando: let me ask you. you're in a race for reelection. polls are early, so they are kind of meaningless right now, it seems your opponent former senator feingold, seems to be in the lead. sen. johnson: i think it's a dead even race. it has been and will continue to be that. it's going to be a really close race. fernando: so how does mr. trump impact your race? sen. johnson: i'm not a political pundit. really. i'm a citizen legislator, my background is in manufacturing and accounting so i'll let the punditry to others. my approach has been and will

they have been helping me since i have been chairman of the wisconsin party. we had gone into the pfister, which you have been to. i had heard rumors about the potential of ted cruz dropping out in the afternoon. i did not go out of my way to confirm any of it or make any phone calls because sometimes there are times you don't want to be in the information loop on things like that, because once you are in the loop, if something leaks, you're one of the people in the loop. we will find out soon enough. i did call my chief of staff and say, what if ted cruz actually drops out tonight? what do you think of that? we talked a little bit about it. i don't think it is going to happen. went to the fundraiser. and sure enough, when the cellphone starts buzzing. a few buzzes is one thing. when you get like 15 in a row and you don't want to look down at your phone when you're talking to people but you pick it up and realize i guess the rumor was true. went back to the house in kenosha, which i had not been to in a very long time, which was nice. and that was it. i made s

with working organizations and already demonstrated voter appeal in states such as wisconsin, california, ohio, pennsylvania, indiana, and maryland, the number of electoral votes needed to elect george c. wallace president in 1968 was clearly within reach. some so-called experts still remained to be convinced. but one lerns learned by the wallace campaigners in california was that they shouldn't mind being underestimated. not when you consider the results. george wallace is in touch with the people. he knows the depth and sincerity of their convictions, that there must be a change in our national government's foreign and domestic policies. george wallace doesn't take time to convince the experts. he's too people talking with the people. he's running. and a new national political movement by the people goes with him. step by step. growing stronger every day. >> we are naturally most happy with the results of our california campaign and with the developments in other parts of the country also. the great groundswell of individual citizen interest that we tapped in 1964 in our campaigns in i

i also know that you were profiled in "the washington post" during the wisconsin primary and you were quoted as saying the key to america is democracy. as a successful small business in the heart of this country as mentioned. i don't want to get political here with you because this is about highlighting the small business, but how has what you've heard on the campaign trail from the proposal to ban muslims, you're a muslim, and some of the other concerns about immigration, how has that impacted your view of america and democracy? >> from the start when i came here with a bad experience from denmark, i believe that that country is freedom country and that's -- honestly it's american dream. so when i got here, i realized that i feel comfortable, i'm able to run the business, i'm able to communicate with people and i see respect and i show respect. that's a freedom country. i felt really comfortable until i hear that comments. that's kind of changed my view of this country completely. i was not expecting to hear something, about the belief. because the belief on one side of living in thi

i see this wisconsin, i see this wherever you go. we are having the kinds of political discussions in america today where people are losing friendships over these things. it does not have to be that way. so how do you fix that? i think leaders fix this. we have not had that kind of leadership lately. leaders need to say here is my principal, here's my solution, let's try and do it in a way that is inclusive. that is optimistic, that is aspirational, that is focusing on solutions. so what is going on right now, i think it is just because your primaries, both sides, the democratic party is in a big primary and republican parties in a big primary. there is a lot of anger out there. why is that? 45 million people in poverty. national security is a mess. people are really anxious. this anxiety has got to be channeled. right now in the primaries, it is being accelerated and exacerbated. in my own view,, the guy who got me basically into doing this, jack kemp my mentor, had a different view of these things. i was brought into politics that

they have begun to put resources in place like wisconsin. >> what are the rod blocks? >> pennsylvania. >> can you tell me some of the roadblocks that trump would face in some of the blue states. >> the roadblocks are going to be to convince democratic voters that he's not a wild right winger which i think would not be a difficult challenge for trump, especially because he is sort of socially liberal and does have liberal ideology and is very appealing among working class white voters so it's ultimately going to be to put aside whatever caricature that hillary clinton creates of donald trump and make voters realize that he's a very different candidate and hillary is coming out obviously early to try to define donald trump. >> let me take a look at a real clear politics average poll gauging a general election matchup between hillary clinton and donald trump. so as of a week ago, clinton is ahead of trump in california, 53.3% to trump's 36%. as of a month ago in new york clinton was ahead of trump by 22 points and clinton with 55.5% to trump's 33.8%. so, i mean, should hi

. >> wisconsin ended up being such a weird turn. remember, the wisconsin victory was not just a win, a huge win. total wipeout of donald trump. since then, there have been seven contests, ted cruz lost all seven and came in third, last place in five out of the seven. >> right. >> stunning. >> wisconsin was an aberration like new hampshire turned out to be an abrashz for george w. bush in 2000. stuff happens on a campaign trail. i think donald trump actually started this off thinking he was going to start a campaign and turn it into a big super pac, and become a major player in the race. it is raltional for someone to think i'm not going to win this, all rhetoric aside, and so i think that the sort of weight of actually winning this nomination with so many people and with so much grief thrown at him is probably tremendous. >> one of the things we're all starting, i think we and donald trump too, we're getting our heads around the idea that he is effectively the nominee now, and we start thinking about the kinds of decisions a nominee

the threat extending across the florida panhandle and as far north as wisconsin. in the eastern u.s. we have been dealing with a lot of moisture. you can see the rain still coming down out here. several inches of rain still possible across eastern parts of north carolina over the next few days. abby and heather? >> hoping everyone stays safe. maria molina thanks for that. >>> breaking details. the suspected gunmen and army accused of a deadly rampage may be suffering from ptsd. they are trying to figure out what caused him to open fire. he served four tours in afghanistan. his father believes this is really a ptsd thing. he moved from california to texas to live in a p compound saying this wasn't my son. police are questioning another man armed at the scene. he may have been trying to stop the shooting. garza allege he had loiped fire in an auto shop killing a customer and shooting a car and police vehicle. six people were hurt including two police officers. >>> he is considered so dangerous the fbi added him to their top ten most wanted list. this morning the man

not acting like a grown-up, but becoming one. >> finally, wisconsin is a number of key senate races. any concerns that the republican could lose control? mr. ribble: there are always concerns. there are more republicans up for reelection than democrats. there is legitimate concern. i have been pleased with the way ron johnson has been running his senate campaign here. he is running against a three term senator that wisconsinites know. and so i give ron johnson a pretty good shot at winning reelection. wisconsin'sle from eighth congressional district. thank you for being with us. mr. ribble: you're welcome. thank you. >> senate minority leader harry reid was critical of the meeting. he spoke on the senate floor for just under 10 minutes. donald trump met privately today with speaker ryan. and republican leader mcconnell. it is just the latest sign that republican leaders in both houses are marching in step with donald trump. mcconnell has fully embraced donald trump. he said last week when he secured the nomination "i have committed to supporting the nominee chosen by the republican v

it reminds me of the two weeks leading into wisconsin. he had a devastating result in wisconsin. he cleaned up after wisconsin, started acting more presidential and started winning states again. so here we find our selves at the key moment for him where he's got to turn that ship around and start getting people across the rust belt. we have a poll on that. women and others more comfortable with him. he's just going in a different direction. >> when do we make the decision in the media, editorial decision to stop carrying aspect of the trump dump, daily aspect of the trump dump. >> it will never happen. sounds good. i agree with the critique, you think tv will stop airing him. he's great box office. >> by the way, it's not that he's great box office. i can name you 10 candidates that rated higher than donald trump. chris christie always outrated donald trump when he came to the show. it's in the numbers. bernie sanders always outrated donald trump when it came on the show. >> it's the story. >> what he says so inflammatory, attacks susana martinez, female hispanic head of the gove

with working organizations and already demonstrated voter appeal in states such as wisconsin, california, ohio, pennsylvania, indiana, and maryland, the number of electoral votes needed to elect george c. wallace president in 1968 was clearly within reach. some so-called experts still remained to be convinced. but one lerns learned by the wallace campaigners in california was that they shouldn't mind being underestimated. not when you consider the results. george wallace is in touch with the people. he knows the depth and sincerity of their convictions, that there must be a change in our national government's foreign and domestic policies. george wallace doesn't take time to convince the experts. he's too people talking with the people. he's running. and a new national political movement by the people goes with him. step by step. growing stronger every day. >> we are naturally most happy with the results of our california campaign and with the developments in other parts of the country also. the great groundswell of individual citizen interest that we tapped in 1964 in our campaigns in i

[applause]. >> i am a wisconsin election official, i'm not in wisconsin today, there have been out an election. i had to vote absentee so i don't know if that makes me a former wisconsin election official or not. i would rather be here right now. by the way that is a nonpartisan position. it's a fancy word for poll worker. but it is cool because i get to register new voters so first-time voters, naturally citizens, its prequel, i like a lot. all kidding aside. lot. all kidding aside. hillary, thank you very much for that introduction. thank you to harvard, this is my first time here. everybody has heard about the store. now i have been walking around and it smells like a bookstore smells and it looks like a bookstore should look, i'm very happy and proud to be one of its guest so thank you again. thanks to book tv. i have never been on book tv although i have watched it many times. it is a real pleasure to be featured on it. of course, last but no lease thank you for coming. this is my fourth live event. the first one wasn't madison wisconsin where i currently where i currently reside

he won in his district in 2012 even when romney didn't do so well in wisconsin. sarah palin, it's questionable about her political capital whether she can influence the grassroots in wisconsin. this pop liulism rising on the right. they are concerned as they look toward the fall. not only will those vote errs c out but will they go against their own senators? >> we get ready for the trump/ryan meeting. thanks for the time. appreciate it. >>> coming up, the never trump campaign that took a major hit when he secured the nomination. basically it was over when he secured the nomination. that doesn't mean they've given up on the convention this summer or a third option for the fall. >>> later, reaction from the clinton campaign on donald trump's new offensive. >> think of this. she's married to a man and nobody -- nobody, perhaps in the history of politics, was worse to women or abused women more than bill clinton. and she's taking negative ads on me. and i'm like a baby. i'm like a baby. here's a guy, he was impeached because he lied. he lied. you remember the famous
