the divided mind and politics of john boehner. tell us what you think about the former speaker's comments. linda is joining us from mississippi, democrats line. caller: good morning. john boehner is speaking about the way it was, when he was speaker of the house, but he hasn't changed. republicans do not want to get anything done. they want to be allowed. nothing will ever get done, because they stand on the sidelines and throw rocks and bottles, but no legislation, no work for the people. i think someone is finally telling the truth, and that is him. host: this is from ngm, a tweet saying john boehner is better than any gop in office. he is 100% frank and honest, unlike the rest of his party. don't forget, he is no saint now that he is retired. he led crazy town. that is from edward. let's go to gary, joining us from ohio. good morning. caller: good morning. i watched john boehner back when he was speaker of the house under obama, and i compared him to who we have now and in his book, i think he is right about ted cruz and jim jo

your view on john boehner? he compared himself to being the mayor of crazy town when he was speaker. caller: hello. i just wanted to say, john boehner is speaking his truth, and i believe he is showing the republicans exactly how they are reflecting their party now, that they are standing for not the american values, that the majority of the american people represent. it has given rise to hate and division, and i'm glad he wrote this book, and i hope people really read it and wake up. thank you. host: louise is next from virginia, republican line. good morning. caller: good morning. i wanted to make a comment, not about this trivia. i want it mccook, to about -- we have a lot of things going on, from myanmar, burma and the democracy, suppose a democracy -- supposed democracy. ended up killing thousands, and now there is a military coup, and we are supposed to get involved in that. this is just ridiculous. host: thanks. that is a story that has been dominating the headlines over the past couple of days. a likely

>> does john boehner or ted cruz? i think they both have had some blame. i think though, what boehner's book presents is almost a time stamp in one of the last evolutions of the republican party. which was maybe from the boehner class over to ted cruz in the tea party and why that time stamp is important is because of this. john boehner dispute his fierce resistance to barack obama's agenda and he it and he was dogged about it and he used to tools of the house to stop president obama. ted cruz represents a different type of on governing. he was against governing. he was the had shut down leader. he was the one that said we will have an absolutis the ideology, at least john boehner understood you have to governor and ted cruz and his class don't care about that. >> he calls out michelle bachmann and calls out sean hannity, many of them where they are and john boehner gone. does that talk about the return to the pretump republican party. >> i think that is a pretty impressive tell it like it is type thing. from ohio, boehner. >> did you say you piem from ohi

john boehner is a free man. although, i got to tell you, and i would have gone with what's beef on this one because he clearly has beef with a lot of the gop, particularly ted cruz and he's probably going to ask ted cruz to start his jeep. >> can i get in on that? >> yes, please. >> was it not biggie who said, what's beef. beef is when you need two freedom caucuses to go to sleep. >> so and speaking of which, no, i don't think he has a lot of credibility on this, ari, because you remember 2011 with a guy whose campaign i worked on. the obama white house thought they had a grand deal on the budget. and these same characters that john boehner is now accusing of hijack and of the party and for terrorism on the party, he caved into and didn't move the country forward on a grand deal when obama was putting a lot on the table talking about cuts to a lot of programs that, quite frankly, democrat constituencies did not want to cut. >> yeah. >> and john boehner backed away from that grand deal. >> yeah. and i just have 2

when john boehner was in charge there. as house speaker. he has this new book or coming out. we're seeing more and more excerpts of it. the new one released this morning is a doozy. he's talking about the former president and john boehner says, i'm going to read the whole thing on your last day. it involves swearing. this is my gift to you. john boehner writes, trump incited that bloody insurrection for nothing more than selfish reasons, perpetuated by the bullshit he's been shoveling since he lost a fair election the previous november. >> that was your gift to me? >> because you don't like it when i swear. lauren, that's, a, that sounds like john boehner, but this is a guy who was the republican speaker of the house not that long ago. >> well, certainly. as more and more excerpts from this book have come out, it becomes very clear. and we kind of got some glimpses of it at the time i covered boehner when he was speaker of the house eight years ago. but one of the things that's becoming very clear is his disdain for misinformation that really grabbed hold of the republican pa

that's where this is heading. >> speaking of john boehner. this morning, an excerpt from his upcoming book was published in politico where he dealt with the rise of these folks like matt gaetz. here's what he wrote. these guys wanted 100% every time. they didn't really want legislative victories. they wanted wedge issues and conspiracies and crusades. a lot of them wanted to blow up washington. that's why they thought they were elected. i know this resonates with you. part of the fights you've been having with your party. but matt gaetz is sort of exhibit a, someone who thought being a member of congress was about trolling, not solving problems for the people. >> you know what, john? matt gaetz is the latest in a very long list, a long merry band of destroyers who have come to washington to blow things up, just as boehner said. they saw any type of compromise, any type of accommodation as surrender, capitulation, as betrayal. boehner knows this mean was the speaker. republican majority, democratic senate and democratic president. we had to ma

john boehner saying the same thing. what do you think? you have two former gop leaders who don't recognize their current party right now. is this party becoming more isolationist, more nativist? >> a tug of war is going on, don. i think bush and boehner are emerging. i wish they had been out sooner and speaking out earlier. but the fact is, they're starting to emerge and talk. and i welcome it. i think it's critically important. again, they're hopeful, they're not the eeyore branch of the party, everything is dark, bad, and people are out to get people. this is the more hopeful wing of the party, of which i'm a member. >> okay, here we go. do you think that, listen, i know that is what you're like, what the former president george bush is like, and what john boehner is saying that he's like. many people are calling john boehner with his book and what he's saying revisionist history, because he ushered in the tea party, which ushered in the whole trump era. do you think that what you want for the party, those days are gone, and this is jus

and then it is on to former house speaker john boehner, who will be speaking with our john dickersonment. >> reporter: john boehner thought he had seen everything as speaker of the house, but that was before january 6th. >> it was sad. revolting. i literally couldn't watch it anymore. >> reporter: did it make you angry? >> of course it made me angry. >> reporter: coming up and "sunday morning." >> cowan: there is a funny thing about a new tv series from hollywood's jamie foxx. it turns out it is something of a family affair, as he'll tell michelle miller. >> reporter: as he grew up in terrell, texas, jamie's grandmother had some important advice for him. what is the most important thing that your grandmother told you? >> she told me to get ouout therere and not limimit myself. >> reporter: and hehe s sure heartbeats. hasn't. with movies, singing, and comedy, like his new netflix series, it is a family affair, later on "sunday morning." >> cowan: you know, of course, that nancy reagan was first lady back in the 1980s, but how much do you know about nancy reagan the person. lesley stahl wi

he said john boehner calls it like it is. he doesn't hold any punches and says exactly what's on his behind. john boehner is in some degrees rightful the current face of the republican party is not emblematic of the republican party of years old. but that is just what we are seeing in terms of tone and tenor. i truly believe the heart and soul of the republican party is the way it was back in the ron reagan era. it is about limited government. it is about free-market capitalism, strong on immigration, religion, pro-life, second amendment. that's what we need to get back to, focus more on the policy and get away from the personalities. because the brash abrasive personal that we had over the last five years cost us the house, the senate -- and the white house. so if we can focus more on the poll sees the and get back to the ronald reagan era, that is a winning formula moving forward. >> yeah, and april, i spoke to harry reid, as alice just mentioned. here's what he told me about the republican part's embrace of trump let's lis

but john boehner is on the losing side of that rift, wolf. donald trump is gathering the trump republican party this weekend in florida. the event tonight that gaetz is speaking at, marjorie taylor green. that's for sort of activists part of the group that organized the january 6th rally, actually. you have high dollar donors going to mar-a-lago to hear the former president this weekend and a lot of 2024 republican presidential hopefuls should donald trump not run up there as well to these high dollar donors. donald trump has a pretty firm grip, 100 days out of his presidency or nearing that on the republican party. so john boehner is making very wise observations about what occurred here but make no mistake about it, his wing of the party is the one that is not ascended inside the party right now. >> thank you very much. an important note to our viewers, be sure to join abby for cnn's inside politics sunday. it airs 8:00 a.m. eastern. it's an excellent, excellent show. we'll be watching. >>> up next, warns the u.s. is falling behind the race

i heard john boehner make many of these comments while he was speaker. he had a group of about 40 minutes who routinely did everything they could to undermine him and weaken him and his effectiveness. john boehner often said if he didn't have 218 votes, he didn't have crap. he used a more flowery word than that. he was alwayin a weakened position because many of his members really didn't come to washington to govern. they came there in many respects to blow things up. there was a merry band of destroyers that sought who harm him and his leadership. he was pretty angry about it at the time. he was absolutely right, but this all preceded donald trump and in some respects laid the groundwork for donald trump, who was an accelerant, not the cause of these problems. >> it's quite entertaining, i guess, to see his thoughts on ted cruz too. wow. he did not hold back on that at all. speaking of new books -- go ahead. >> real quick, pam, boehner to me embodies one of the biggest questions in american politics for the next few years. there is no doubt that the tru

john boehner had a sense of humor but taken a dark turn talking about his own. not talking about democrats. he's talking about republicans. >> yeah. i mean, i think on both sides it's really easy to be spicy when you're not up for re-election. right? whether that is, because you're permanently off the ballot or you have a few years before you have to run for office again. so i think in this kind of ongoing feud between boehner and cruz, you're seeing some of that. i think it does, though, speak to kind of the larger point that either exiting or former republicans seem to be the only republicans in the party that are willing to criticize the party right now. everybody else seems to kind of still be sticking with former president trump and seeing, you know, where his voters are going to go now that the former president is out of office, and that certainly includes ted cruz, who is claiming sour grapes. we know boehner likes his grapes prefer particularably in merlot but claiming sour grapes now that boehner is out of office in his tweet. look, boehner unleashed me

or when he said something, they remain quiet as john boehner alluded to. we could look at his policies during the entire eight years of barack obama when he was in the office and when he wasn't retired. and he upheld some of these beliefs and principles as well of john boehner. >> it's important for us to remember, when we talk about this conversation of who's in and out when it comes to america, this cuts in many directions. back -- black lives for sure, minority groups, people of color, even with some people that we consider right. ben franklin's had issues with spaniards,, russian's a, talons, frenchman, people he said who are of us mar the complexion. let's just remember for people who are watching and feel and don't think i like black people, this runs deeper than black and white in our country. as you mentioned, donald trump is using this rhetoric and it's contemporary meaning. here's one example. >> from this day forward, a new vision will govern our land. from this day forward, it's going to be only, america first. america first. >> professor greer
