0:00.0	We talked a little bit about this at the start of the week, but we have to follow up
0:12.5	because Donald Trump's so-called landslide victory, which gives him a supposed mandate,
0:18.3	is being used to defend so many of the choices that Donald
0:23.5	Trump is now making with regard to cabinet and nominations and policy promises.
0:29.4	But that victory has shrunk and shrunk and shrunk.
0:34.2	In fact, it's experienced so much shrinkage that it is really now just a tiny little
0:41.0	embarrassment. With every passing day, the margin has declined. It is now 1.6 percentage points
0:49.4	and just roughly 2.5 million votes. Now, for context, Hillary Clinton in 2016 won the popular vote by 2.1%.

1:50.0	Even recess appointments if that's how he has to do it to get his cabinet confirmed.
1:56.0	None of this is the will of the people, but more importantly, there is no mandate when most voters
2:03.5	voted for someone else.
2:06.1	I want you to think back, as I said Monday, to how much respect Republicans gave Barack
2:12.3	Obama when he won twice with real majorities.
2:17.2	They gave him no respect.
