spend, now we re treading who is making that argument, neil? who is making that argument? i don t know, i m just using an example. that sth worst example. we can use better examples. i will let you talk, i promise. if we wipe that out, and you don t want to do that, i don t want to do that, we wiped it out. you know the government is still in the position of running in the red. so then what are we bragging on to get back to the things that you think are important? i shouldn t have to answer the question of how to handle the deficit that the government created. i m not a government official. i wasn t elected into office to solve nese problems. i m a tax paying citizen, a young person that is speaking opportunities and in a system that is unable to provide it, regardless of what the argument is and i say that this system of capitalism has proven itself ill legitimate and it cannot provide basic things like education, shelter, health care. we need to readjust how
mcdonald, bruce jackson. steve, it s a mess over there. could what is happening over there happen over here? absolutely, david. not game of cops and robbers any more. which the president s attitude seems to convey. in belgium you mentioned the overnight raids being banned and the terrorists put together their bombs and their bomb factories and this has been a suicide pact. freedom as lincoln setd and freedom is not a suicide pact. we have a war. wage the war. bruce, so many catch and releases of these terrorists over there. emind you of what s happening with gitmo right here. well, i don t even really know given the election campaign if i know what politically correctness means any more when you have a lot of these people on the gop side talking about a campaign of small hands and attacking each other s wives. i think the rhetoric needs to be toned down and we need to get serious about, you know, what we re going after here. i know even in one of the few complete senten
welcome to forbes on fox. who shrinks the role of government more? let s go in focus with steve forbes, carl, sabrina, bill, and bruce jackson. mike, is it possible that a democrat would shrink government more than a republican? certainly not hillary clinton, david. trump would shrink government much more than hillary would. as a businessman, trump knows how erroneous taxes are. hillary clinton has never been in private business her entire adult life, but lived off the public trough. she s clueless. bruce, what trump does know is big government pushing out private sector of a lot of things. we saw the gdp figures, pathetic figures this week, .5%, almost a recession. well, what i do know, i m, charles coch is like me in the fact he s taking a look at trump s website and said how big policy positions are, not written in crayon, and let s face it, trump s policies are so vague with the exception of the tax policies are clear. okay. let s take that tax policy. it woul
of them out there. also joining us. usual great job hosting bulls and bears. happy to have all here. okay, if you are going to hire a 25 person team at the washington post to dig into donald trump. have at it. i just didn t remember hearing the same zeal with senator barack obama or quite the enthusiasm with hillary clinton. doesn t mean i m not seeing it. just not to the same degree. a large degree the mainstream media hasn t changed its spots. they were over top excited in 2008 for obama. hiring people to washington investigate donald trump what i found more interesting is the decision not to do the same with hillary clinton and almost every day another bomb shell. this week just discovered through the clinton initiative a lot of money from key donors. right. what do we think the clinton initiative was for? this is a major pay for play service. like pay per view in the eighties when boston was exciting and so illegitimate. i m looking at that. you know you look at
between her program and president obama s programs and that s led to this 2% growth. we re missing $2 trillion of growth we should have if we had better economic governing, but look, i think trump said something amazing this week. he said he wants to make america rich. that we can only be strong if we re rich. you know, that is a simple, powerful idea. it is a simple, powerful idea. braus, is is it a good idea? i think it would be a good idea if he could get anybody to adwree with him. can t ooempb get the speaker of the house to agree with him. listen, trump would bankrupt the country because he s not willing to touch entitlement and we don t know enough about his businesses because we haven t seen his tax return for starters. you have to get along with people. that s one of the problems everybody admits going on in washington and he s continuing to attack people in his own party. one thing we know is what has happened over the past seven and a half years of a democrat
bruce jackson. john, is the liberal media kind of losing its power? yes, and this is very good news. what we think of as media is very much a moving target. when you compare that to 20 to 30 years ago, it was major newspapers that could shape the narrative. nowadays, new sources of media alternative sprout up every day that give us a new slant on everything. the ability of the new york times to shape the narrative is changing every day. we have one big example, the iran deal. look at what white house adviser ben rhodes did, he set the tone in the hen house of the beltway echo chamber. that deal is a deal, not a treaty that congress would have had to pass. it went through with little coverage, proper coverage of what was in that deal. and so the invertebrate state of the media is in play right now. the fact that that deal, the iran deal got passed, shows the power of the liberal media. but getting back to this story, steve, on donald trump, i read the thing thoroughly.
hurry up and wait murr this really is no surprise. the larger these entities get the more bureaucracy becomes interwoven. the longer lines become. the longer waits become. and even when you bring a private sector guy in, you know, like they did with the va, you are if inside a maize like this maizes and people above you worked with that because but they never did. he tried to deal it back slightly. but i m wondering it was too little too late. i think way too late too late. and to make that analogy is preposterous. people are going into a private place for fun. you know lines are part of it. imagine taking just a short flight and you have to get there three hours ahead of time. i think most people would start walking. or start driving. democratic party, at least under bill clinton did embrace to some extent privatization. that was mayors like ed rendell in philly. and there was a con sebsz in this country about privatization until obama administration where
our forbes gang has been looking into the russian connections to see if he s right or wrong. welcome, everybody, to forbes on fox. we ll check in with steve forbes, rich carlguard, sabrina schaefer, john tammie, and bruce jackson. who should we be more concerned about? hillary clinton. even though donald trump likes putin, donald trump an alpha male. if he feels he s been dissed, he ll turn against putin on a dime. whereas with hillary clinton, as you indicated in your introduction, the russians may have real connections, financial connections to the clinton foundation when she is secretary of state, real outright corruption. that s something he can hold over her for months to come, years to come, if those emails are not revealed before the election. bruce, the one thing we know for sure is that russian reset which started in 2000 remember when she brought out the target-like button, pounded on it saying here s the russian reset, with the foreign minister lookin
to any r. anyone on my e-mail. there is no classified material. was that true? there was classified material. aun someone here says this could cost letter big time in november. hi, everybody. welcome to forbes on fox. let s go to see when steve forbes and bill baldwin and bruce jackson. so what is different here is that she now claims she didn t lie to the public and the fbi director said that is not true. the key thing is she did lie. she was called out. she was given the ultimate lie in the paper. the main streep media not just reporting the story once. it s the reputation. with her they do it once and then it disappears. but, bruce, there is different. she is doubling down and saying even stronger that she publicly said things that comey said were not true. how long can she get away with this as steve said the washington post gave her 4 pin oak yoes. that s an out and out lie. is this going to pass? she was so far ahead in the polls i was going to pass my t
hi, everybody. i m david asman. let s find out when steven forbes, john tamney and bruce jackson, think. steve, what do you think? trump is right. what the chinese did is inexcusable. it was a slap in the face. one chinese official chuckled and said he had to leave the rear-end of the plane. so trump should have done what reagan did, if something is not right, walk away. but it shows the world is becoming more dangerous when the chinese treat that president like that. and bruce, it s this whole idea of soft did lo diplomacy. you look at the nuclear explosion that north korea set off this week. i mean, this is in direct defiance to president obama s nuclear test ban proposal. so all of the soft diplomacy doesn t get us a lot. well, first of all, the soft diplomacy, i beg to differ on that with trump snuggling up to putin this week and doing interviews on russian tv. so i don t know what the hard diplomacy is there, but i would say president obama is part of a strategy in
