It was meant to reform the Veterans Affairs department. We have an update where things stand right now. Melissa. Melissa back to the markets, the dow ended up triple digits. Different story for oil. Phil flynn, fox business contributor has us covered from the cme. Lori rothman has it covered on the floor of the new york stock exchange. What was driving stocks today . Reporter people focusing on comments from jackson hole and fed chief janet yellen. She was seeing signs in the u. S. Economy. So obviously the debate is raging will it be september or december Interest Rate hike . The idea is that we get one more hike by the end of the year. That is good news for the markets and that really rallied today. Volume, coming into the end of the month, you have got some rebalancing going on and typical to see a volume step up with remaining days of the month. Vix came in a little bit too. Investors are not that concerned with calmness coming over the markets in which was the most losing week since the brexit vote last week. Higher Interest Rates tend to bode well for many banks and financial companies. Fed and American Express up 1 . Wells fargo up better than 2 on the day. Not fortunate today if you were taking a bet on caesar caesars lost big. Company has market cap of one billion dollars. A judge cleared the way for 11. 4 billion worth of lawsuits by bonds holders claiming caesars reneged on some guaranties of corporate bonds. Back to you. David lori, thank you very much stocks did well even with oil down, that is bucking trend right . Yes, david, they believe that the economy is Getting Better and stocks are taking that as a positive right now. Oil on the other hand is still trying to decide what they should worry about more, the fed or storms in the gulf of mexico. I think today they were more worried about the fed. We didnt really move because we are seeing a lot of oil and gas operations in the gulf of mexico being affected by this tropical depression. 5 of u. S. Oil production in the gulf is now offline. 11 of natural gas production. So were definitely seeing some precautionary measures taken because of this storm. Nonessential personnel are being removed from a lot of oil rigs in the gulf but markets think we might be able to weather this storm because it might not be as damaging as we hoped. A lot of this is precautionary but will show up in the Oil Inventories in the coming weeks and natural gas inventories make them little tighter and offer some support. We have gold today. Gold also bucked a trend t was down after the fed. It was down after the dollar. They turned higher at end of the day. Think there is hope for gold. Back to you. David 30 cents. Its a green arrow. Well take it. Phil, appreciate it. Melissa apple announcing the iphone 7 launch is set for september 7. Meanwhile ceo tim cook is cashing in, selling 36 million worth of stock as part of his compensation package. David wow. Melissa according to an. Sec file on friday. We have lindsey bell and jason rotman who works with lido isle investors. Tim cook doesnt catch heat. Anytime someone else cashes in and diverses away from the main company they seem to get vilified. Lindsey, why does he seem to get a pass . I know their stock is down 20 hitting an alltime high in 2015, hey the stock has doubled in the last five years. Over the period of time that he took the reins or the helm and weve gotten to today. Revenue has doubled. He has done a lot of good things. He deserved this. Were seeing right now that the shares he got when he took the helm vested. Maybe he wants to buy a new house or boat. You never know. Melissa Everyone Needs a new yacht or gulf g5 whatever it is. David i do. Melissa i do too. Jason makes sense on one hand. You know you want to diversify your portfolio. Everything is invested in apple. S daytoday, his reputation, everything else. It would make sense. On other hand ceos know they make a political statement what they do with their shares. Last year when jamie dimon got his bonus at jpmorgan, he used it all to buy stock. It was a big boost of confidence for the company. Isnt it the opposite when a ceo sells like this . Yeah, that was the famous dimon bottom of last year. Melissa right. I think overall, overall you see the public and the media for what its worth to vilify, to use your word, the ceos who have these monster compensation packages who run unsuccessful companies. That is really the issue youre talking about. As the other guest said, tim cook, why would anybody have a problem of ceo of apple who has beaten the s p over the past five years, who fulfilled the first check mark of being ceo of apple five years success fully, it is okay if he takes some money out of the company and puts it into his family, his future, et cetera, or his life in general. So it is really not a big deal. He has done very well on apple. This is part of his rewarded. David 36 million, not a big deal. News about another tech darling, the Washington Post which is owned by amazon Ceo Jeff Bezos is reporting that amazon is starting a new 30 hour work week for some of its employees. Quite a departure from the legendary nonstop 80 hour work week which it has been criticized in the past. Lindsey is this for show . Times has been writing about amazon and the grueling hours they force on their employees. This is definitely step in right direction for them to change that feeling out in the marketplace to work there but at the same time, i think that this is a very good thing. Forbes had an interesting article about this topic, pointing to the diversification for the company and, how this could potentially help the againer pay gap. I think that is definitely a step in the right direction. David jason, we should mention they will be paid less, lest people think they will be paid as 40 or 80 hour work week. This is option for people who think family does have a role in their lives. You know, i am of the camp that there is a deeper issue at play that is way, way beyond these gender gap, equality. David which is . Automation. This is what is happening. Headline is really not amazon tests 30 hour work week. Amazon tests playing employees less and still trying to make the same money. That is what is happening, carlos slim, second richest man in the world also has been a huge proponent of threeday work week. A lot of people are vilifying him saying he knows with automation, he can make more money by paying his employees less. Honestly this is what is happening for amazon. David i only vilify people who dont let me have the same thing. Melissa. Melissa the charge 2 and flux 2 in addition to the updates to the blaze smartphone watch which allows users to see notifications from apps like facebook and snapchat. Everybody i know who had a fitbit a year ago, wearing them on the holidays, i dont see them now. They dont have them on their wrists. Doesnt seem this is a product that sticks over time. I think this is an interesting Inflection Point in fitbits trajectory. Number one the stock has taken an utter beating by the market in the past year or two. It still dominates the wearable market. You have all the pros and cons from a stock standpoint owning fitbit. Fitbits future is tearing down walls they constructed between apple and googles health platforms. If they think about that doing, that they may get a buyout offer from either one of those companies. I think it is an interesting buy at this point. Melissa okay. Lindsey, in the theme of fitbit, mcdonalds in happy meal tried to do a good thing, put fake watch as a treat, they ended up calling it because it cause ad rash. Irony, irony. They tried to put something fitness related into a happy meal and backfired in their faces. I almost have sympathy for them over this one. What do you think . At least theyre trying to offset the unhealthiness of some of their meals. Just another way for them i guess. But i think as the other guest said, fitbit theyre in a tough space. Theyre in theardware safe. That has negative sentiment cloud over top of them no matter what you do here. They will need to team up with insurers, not mcdonalds to make the stock work. Melissa thanks so much, you twice. David to what you said, i bought one for my wife a couple months ago, it has been sitting on a shelf. Melissa i got one for my husband. He never wore it. David we wish them luck. Democrats on the defense as more evidence emerging in the Clinton Foundations pay to play scandal.

David one star quarterback making big headlines on the sidelines by sitting down, sitting it out. The controversy has now people burning Colin Kaepernick. Melissa kaepernick. Colin kaepernick. Come on. You not a niners fan . David i dont want to know how to pronounce this guys name, how much i dislike what he did. People are dying in vain because this country is not holding up the their end of the bargain and giving freedom, justice and liberty to everybody. That is something that is not happening. Nt you hate that . When they dont tell you how much something costs and you have to ask . Maybe thats why i always make sure to. Bring up the costs associated with your services. I know. Transparency about costs. Just one way edward jones makes sense of investing. When a moment spontaneously turns romantic, why pause to take a pill . Or stop to find a bathroom . Cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. Do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas for pulmonary hypertension, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. Do not drink alcohol in excess. Side effects may include headache, upset stomach, delayed backache or muscle ache. To avoid longterm injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. If you have any sudden decrease or loss in hearing or vision, or any symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. Ask your doctor about cialis and a 200 savings card. Get between you and lifes dobeautiful moments. Llergens flonase gives you more complete allergy relief. Most allergy pills only control one inflammatory substance. Flonase controls 6. And six is greater than one. Flonase changes everything. Melissa new emails continue to spark controversy over Hillary Clintons meetings with donors while secretary of state but dnc chair Donna Brazile says these types of activities are completely normal. You know, this notion that somehow or another someone who is supporter, someone who is donor, somebody who is activist, saying i want access, i want to come into a room and i want to meet people, we often criminalize behavior that is normal. I dont see what the smoke is. Melissa i mean, seriously. Fred barnes, weekly standard, executive editor, Fox News Contributor is here. Marjorie of clifton consulting, ceo. Also a democratic consultant. Fred, let me start with you. Okay. Melissa she just said a donor saying they want access that is completely normal. That is business as usual, selling access. I mean she said it. Is that, is there something wrong with that . Well, she, well of course there is something wrong with it. The, and she also said, there was nothing criminal about it. That is not the point. The point is whether it is unethical or whether it is proper or not because you can give a donation that that gives you that puts you at the front of the line to go see the secretary of state. It gives you access. Look, people hire lobbiests in washington in hopes they get some access, boy, there is nothing like there to get access. I mean they got access to Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state. They paid for it. They paid directly for it. Melissa yeah, they did. Have we ever had anything like this before in American History going back to George Washington . I never heard of it. Melissa no, i mean it is astonishing in it is scale. Marjorie in i 2008, president obama was very concerned exactly about this thing, this type of thing. Head of Armed Services committee then senator kerry he wasnt comfortable with this they made the clintons sign the document saying in effect put up chinese wall between the foundation and themselves. They would avoid even appearance of impropriety. Thats not what they did at all . First of all, we dont know for a fact who actually ended up at that dinner but im not here to defend in i in way kind of commingling. I understand why it is unsavory or problematic. One of the challenges is Clinton Foundation is Global Organization and one of the things they do is Health Security worldwide, a lot of hiv and prevention, a lot of dignitaries were a lot of melissa like the head of ubs who was in there and one of the people who gave money and wanted access to the president of china, the head of ubs having nothing to do with malaria, but instead needing a deal brokered between himself and the government of switzerland because they were in deepwater over tax evasion. Hillary clinton stepped in herself firsthand and negotiated a favorable settlement for them after that ubs they gave even more money to the foundation, fred barnes. Is that about malaria . Well melissa fred, go ahead. Im kidding with the question but you know where im heading. Fred barnes, what do you think of that one . Well i think its a big problem for Hillary Clinton. We need to go back tat she said a year ago. She said i will quote it, there is absolutely no connection between anything that i did as secretary of state and the Clinton Foundation. Well that is a flatout lie. It is not true. She did lots of things. Saw a lot of people. We dont know what favors she may have handed out but certainly getting access to her in a way others couldnt was a favor. And now they want, if she is elected president they want to keep the foundation alive . Melissa that will be arms length. We have to go, guys. Thanks so much. Well be back. David more coming up. After sparking a major backlash, mylan, the maker of epipen is now offering a generic version of the life saving allergy drug. It will cost 300 bucks for a twopack.

What were building together. And could this happen again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . I spoke to my doctor and she told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. But eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless you doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Like unusual bruising. Care for sudden signs of bleeding, eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Melissa shares of hershey dropping 11 afterhours. On news that mondelese international is no longer pursuing a combination with hershey. I love hershey. That should count for something. There you go. In Hillary Clintons america, middle class gets crushed, spending goes up. Dark go up. Hundreds of thousands of jobs disappear. More of the same but worse. In Donald Trumps america, working families get tax relief. Millions of new jobs created, wages go up, Small Businesses thrive. The american dream, achievable. David a tale of two americas. Donald trump slamming Hillary Clintons economic proposals in a brand new ad which is part of the Trump Campaign 10 million ad buy covering nine battleground states. This according to ap. Here is art laffer, former member of president reagans Economic Advisory board. Did you have any input in this ad, art . Not directly. I worked closely with steve moore and larry kudlow, you know im a little loathe of being on scene, david. David what do you think . Did they hit the right points in this ad . Yes i do. I think they hit the right points. I want to slam it harder. It is all about the economy. She wants to give freebies to people have too many and raise taxes and overregulate and stop drilling. Donald trump wants lower taxes, Economic Growth and prosperity and wants to really provide the opportunities for people who havent had them to succeed and prosper. David art, heres the big question. Is the economy that right now so that americans would make the donald trump jump, if you know what im asking . It does take a leap of faith to go with a guy that says things on the campaign stump that scare some people. Do you think they would be willing to make that jump if they think the economy is really awful but is it that bad or do they feel it is that bad . I never seen a politician who doesnt say things on the stump that dont scare me. I never seen one. Donald trump says them too, thats for sure but the economy is that bad. Its a terrifying situation. This is the single worst recovery, ever. People are not coming out. Were growing em speaking the rate of growth of population. You cant continue with that for very long before you really get into big trouble and were getting into that range of big trouble and i think the cases right now, just like it was with jimmy carter. Johnson, nixon, ford and carter guaranteed us reagan and i think w and obama guarranty us david remember the economy, i dont have to tell you, you used to write it brilliantly in the wall street journal the economy during last months of jimmy carter was awful terrible with inflation at double digits, Interest Rates close to 20 . Right now we dont have the same kind of all fullness. It was 2008 of course when obama was first elected we were in the midst of a financial crisis that we havent seen in our lifetime. So, seems to take a crisis to make a dramatic jump politically. I dont think that is true, david, i really dont n 2014 we didnt have your crisis. Flip in the senate was enormous. David thats true. If you look in 2009 there were 28 democratic governors and 22 republicans. Today there are 31 republican governors, 18 democrats, one, tom sullivan from alaska who used to be a republican governor. These changes are really happening. All we have to do is make sure that people realize that donald trump will provide the prosperity and this is a lousy economy with huge potential on the upside. And i think there is huge potential on the upside. He just needs to say it all the time. It is hillarys to lose. She and obama have done a really bad job on the economy. As did w by the way. W was not off my hook. David dr. Art laffer. We have to leave it at that you always are pleased to have you with us. Please come back as soon as you can. Youre the best. Thank you very much. David melissa. Melissa president Obama Meeting a goal he set a year ago. 10,000th syrian refugee entering the United States this afternoon. Nearly five million syrians have fled since the civil war began tearing their homeland apart. Less than 2 have landed in the u. S. , according to the state departments. Almost half of the new americans are 14 and under. Top two destinations in the u. S. For syrians are michigan and california. David that makes sense. Shares of hershey, more news on that, dropping 11 afterhours. This on the news that mondelese international no longer pursuing combination with hershey. The ceo says, quote our proposal to acquire hershey reflect ad conviction combining two iconic American Companies would create an Industry Leader with global scale and snacking confectionery and strong portfolio of complimentary brands.

As a result of all of this, hershey shares going way down afterhours. Melissa there you go. Problems with obamacare are not stopping as signups are slowing.

Gov fraud melissa critical condition. Obamacare options are about to drop for nearly 2 3 of americans. This according to a new study from the Kaiser Family foundation. Fox businesss jeff flock is here with the details. Im almost afraid to ask, jeff. Fill us in. Reporter melissa, you may not have known this but this year there were about 300,000 enrollees who had only one option in the obamacare exchanges. That was 2 of all enrollees. According to kaiser, next year that number will be 2. 5 Million People will have only one option. That is about almost 20 of all enrollees. In some states the entire state has only one option of the essentially not much of an option at all. Those states like alabama, alaska, oklahoma, South Carolina and wyoming. Other states reduced options because a lot of companies have pulled out of it and the deputy insurance commissioner of oklahoma, said, face it, folks, there is no competition in places like oklahoma and other places. As we said, those insurers that have pulled out like united healthcare, actually have been rewarded in the marketplace, at least in the stock marketplace. United healthcare i think is up 7 since they pulled out, the number is 17 yeartodate. Investors apparently dont like the exposure because theyre not making any money. Melissa. Melissa amazing stuff, jeff, thank you. David. David how much will obamacare play into voters minds, our panel is back. Fred, i dont know anybody whose plan hasnt been affected, whose plan hasnt been dropped or deductibles hasnt gone up and now other prices are going up. Is it going to fall on democratic shoulders, people unhappy with health care . It certainly should. No republicans voted for obama care when it passed in 2010. Its a model that just doesnt work, the obamacare model. People are required to buy much more insurance, many of them, young people in particular, Insurance Coverage than they want. So they do one of two things. They either dont buy any insurance at all. Theyre asked to pay a penalty, which isnt even enforced now under obama. Or, they just go in and out of the Health Care System whenever they want to. You come up, young people dont go to the doctor much. But if youre in an auto accident, gee you will be in the hospital, you need health care. Check into obamacare when youre healed, youre all right and check out. Financially it doesnt work. David politically speaking donald trump doesnt have to do a lot to point out some. Cost increases. Health care spending as a percent of gdp has gone up from 13. 3 in 2000 to 18. 2 in june 2016. Then rising deductibles, premiums are beginning to go up as well but rising deductibles have grown 67 between the time obamacare started and now. Yeah. The surprise has been that most businesses that we thought would drop their employees health care actually kept them. What were seeing businesses are finding Innovative Solutions like actin care group which providessed better access and saves patients a ton of money. Business community is taken over and coming to rescue of a lot of American Public in giving health care we didnt think the way they would. David marjorie, you have to admit things have changed. I dont know anybody who isnt paying higher deductibles even though president obama promised they wouldnt be. Crystal ball on health care didnt work. David it was crystal ball, frankly, fred a lot of people didnt believe in when these promises were made. You but also have to keep in mind it was republican bill to start with. David no republican voted for obamacare, fred . You but know the environment in congress at that time. There was no republican bill. Heritage foundation was for individual mandate but most conservatives werent, most republicans werent. Were going to wind up with one of two things. Well wind up with what hillary calls the public option which would mean,. David socialized medicine. Or well have a more conservative free market system that makes special, special adjustment for people who cant afford Health Insurance. Theyre growing to have to be subsidized in some way. That is what is in, that part subsidizing the poor, is in obamacare, but the rest is Health Insurance people dont want. David fred and marjorie, thank you very much. Well see you soon. Appreciate it. Thank you. Melissa football becoming political. San francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick would not stand for the National Anthem for minorities not represented a he doesnt plan to stand anytime soon. I will continue to sit and r people who are being oppressed. This something that has to change. When there is significant change and i feel like that flag is supposed to represent and this country is representing people the way it is spoused to ill stand. Melissa he is sitting to stand with the people. All right, here now, larry elder, radio talk show host. What is his real game here . There are a lot of people with all the conspiracy theories. He obviously hasnt been playing very well. Is he causing a big brouhaha not to get cut by the 49ers . You can blame it on this . Is he doing to get what is the game behind this. I dont think there is one. I take him at his word. I think he believes black people are being suppressed open pressed by the police. He is supporting black lives matter me. He insulting people who lost their lives. Melissa veterans. Fact that blacks, are the freest, prosperous american blacks are on the face of the earth, this whole black lives Matter Movement is built on big fat, stubborn lie that blacks being shot by cops. Number of blacks shot by cops declined5 according to Washington Post. 75 . 965 people were killed by cops. Less than 4 were white cops shooting unarmed blacks. That is lie. Twice as many whites are killed by cops than blacks. Melissa he doesnt want to be confused. His fans watching not really his fans anymore. Veterans getting upset. A lifelong 49ers fan burned a jersey in viral video you see here. He talked to fox and friends earlier this morning. Here is what he had to say. I was very disappointed. I mean, you know, that is the national stage. Unfortunately you know, there is tons and tons and tons of children who look up to him, watching these videos and, you know, i just felt compelled to, you know, battle that other side. Melissa so larry, if the niners dont want him, some other team might. Does this impact that if he is alienating people . I think it does. As you pointed out he has not played very well. He signed a 100 Million Contract at peak of his career. 61 million is guaranteed. He has not played well. If im trying to get a job somewhere else this will not look good on my resume to offend so many fans who are patriotic. I think it is idiotic move by spoiled athlete who has no appreciation for the fact that people fought hard and die to make this kind of money. Curt flood was a black baseball player who literally sacrificed his career to overturn the socalled reserve clause that kept a player bound to a club for his life. Had it not been for people like that, Colin Kaepernick would not have freedom and ability to play a fame game making 100 million. He ought to have greater appreciation. Melissa if i was making 61 million in guaranteed money i wouldnt think i find a whole lot to get upset. Maybe well try it. David if youre not upset about everything else, how about this, the zika virus on college campuses. What one university is doing to prepare and what you have to know to protect your kids going back to school. Also hurting our heroes. President obama pledged to fix the broken va system more than two years ago. After billions of dollars why doesnt it feel like any progress has been made . David in 2014 president obama signed a bill to overhaul the Veterans Affairs department saying it is quote, our sacred what if anything has been done . Foxs Doug Mckelway has answers. Doug . Reporter melissa, david, that bill signed two years ago was rare case of bipartisanship in washington. What has changed in last couple years . Not much if you ask retired today Sergeant Steve cooper. He was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer. He documented care with fda and attaching recording device to him in his meeting with his doctor and his nurse. Here is a little bit what he recorded. Just irritates me the living hell out of me. Is the va best system in the world . No. Obviously but i can only do what i can do. I have 500 patients. 500 on may 23rd. It is almost impossible. This type of behavior this type of care, inability for government to manage health care is happening constantly throughout the country. Reporter in a speech to American Veterans earlier this month, va secretary bob mcdonald citing all improvements. 97 of employments are completed within 85 within seven days and 22 are completed very same day. Reporter in houston, supervisors instructed staff to falsely record 223 cancellations as canceled by the patient. 94 of them were reschedule with average wait time 81 days. In little rock, arkansas, the va spent 8 million on solar panels. Four years after originally scheduled completion date with 1. 5 in dollars in additional costs. In detroit they bought 300 tv sets for 31,000. They were never installed because they were the wrong type. Yearandahalf later they were still in storage. These are the kind of errors you doesnt see with private sector corporations but very much happening with the veterans administration. David, and melissa back to you. David inexcusable. Melissa. Melissa weather in florida has worried many communities that the weather could boost population of zika. Florida has 400 cases of the virus. As students and go back to school, they want to make sure their kids are safe. Dr. Julio frank is president of the university of miami and an expert in Public Health. He joins me right now. As i mentioned you are a doctor. I was impressed to see number of things your university put in place to battle back. Let me ask you about some of them. One of them, your custodial Landscaping Service began installing bricks of insecticide in the storm drains around campus. You have given students repellant spay and wipes around campus. Youre also began preparing zika a year ago, developing a diagnostic blood test less expensive than the current option and gives quick results. That is sound like something that needs to be shared . Yeah, absolutely. Its, weve been getting ready for this situation because on the one hand we had an obligation to our own students, our own staff, our own faculty. But on the other we are a university and universities through their research are the engine that generates solutions to common problems and, our teams have been very focused. More than a year ago developing diagnostics and working on effective vaccine and new ways of controlling mosquitoes. This is not going to be the last epidemic we will see and we need to develop the tools, invest in research and the Public Health infrastructure to make sure were prepared for this and future epidemics as well. Melissa it is impressive you guys are taking it so seriously and being so proactive doing something on your own rather than waiting for the government to step in and do something for you. I commend you on that. In terms of task, a lot of people said if you go to the doctor and get some diagnostic test, they dont necessarily individual, they wont necessarily give it to you, it is not that accurate, you wont get the test quickly. How were you able to do this . Well we have a group that has been working on diagnostic of viral diseases which started with aids many years ago. This is what happens in Research Universities like the university of miami. You build the capacity to deal with, to face changing threats. Based on the platforms, stevenson and others in our faculty have been working on a fast cheaper diagnostic test, were moving forward seeking fda approval so you can have that diagnosis which is so critical for early intervention. Melissa yeah. As i say, the other side of this is better prevention through vaccine and better control of the mosquitoes. Weve also done mapping where the mosquitoes breed, what are their habits. How we better control those populations. Definitely a vaccine. What about a cure, how is that going, once you have it . We currently dont have a cure but there are many things can be done to reorient patients and to screen patients. In the case of zika, we have challenge of also screening babies, in the case of pregnant women that might be affected and our, uhealth, our Academic Health system, our hospitals worked on some screening tests particularly when it comes to i.

Ive been working in Democratic Politics since i was five years old. I worked on mark warner and tim kaines administrations when they were governor of virginia but this is different. David well, in 1980, as you well know a whole group of democrats, called reagan democrats who crossed party lines. We went back to the 1980 stats, surprising there were more than this, 26 of the democrats voted for Ronald Reagan. Do you think donald trump could get at least that many, 2 of the democrats . Because there are a lot of democrats just cant stand trump. I dont know about percentages. I just know that hundreds of thousands of democrats in ohio and pennsylvania, either changed their registration or showed up to the polls trying to vote for trump in the primary and werent able to do it because of their registration. So we, i mean i just got with our data guy today. We have over 850,000 voters, independents and democrats, just in pennsylvania, that are ripe for what were doing and were going to try to move them over to vote for trump in the next 70 days or some and, this is, i mean this is really exciting. Just started a few weeks ago and just to the donald trump, tweeted out about the trumpocrats a couple days ago. We have thousands of people coming to the website. David huge number in pennsylvania. Pennsylvania of course has a lot of old Manufacturing Industries that have died. Sure. David i know that is one of the main reasons why a lot of democrats are going over to trump because they feel he would kind of stop that bleed. Do you think that is the same that would happen in places like ohio and other formerly democratic states . Sure. And my home state of virginia, south side of virginia, in my hometown we had 15 manufacturing plants 20 years ago, now there is one. David wow. There is nobody more responsible for than the clintons.
