working before you ve had a chance to touch the ball. president trump was consistent during the campaign, really over the last 20 years of his life, is he feels like the u.s. has been tied up and getting the wrong side of the deal on negotiations. but i grew up on a farm in oklahoma. the complex system of ag credit and contracts and lending makes it a different type of scenario than it is with the commodities you mentioned earlier, where they had to be bailed out earlier to be given time to be successful. look, president trump, donald trump, has always been a hi high-stakes gambler. in the real estate world, president trump has gone bankrupt over four times. in the branding and marketing world, he s made a mint. he s been a business and genius. in getting elected, he s been fantastic on taking on issues where americans have been hurt, saying i m going to solve them. that plays to the american people, and it should.
the president s trip. phil, going to start with you. what contract is the president talking about? i don t remember them signing a contract and, a hand shake, is he really going off a hand shake to cement denuclearization from a dictatorial regime? it wasn t exactly a contract that you would think of in the real estate world, but there was a joint statement that both president trump and kim jong-un signed at the summit in singapore, which didn t amount to too much in substance, there was a general agreement to denuclearization and a number of other issues, but certainly not an agreement by north korea to end its nuclear program today or tomorrow. so i think trump is being a
it. they re tired of excuses. they want something to get done. i m not a finance guy. you ladies have more background. my question is this, on the tax plan, is it possible instead of taking like 15 different things to make it happen, because there s maybe take one or two things and see can we make that happen and maybe build from there? that s what they discussed in the senate. take it apart. we talked about this. if there s one thing that you re going to do to have the most meaningful impact regardless of what former secretary rice has to say, lowter corporate tax rate. that will have the biggest impact. you ll see the economy grow from there. then once you have a victory, if you do want to take it apart, go ahead with confidence and tackle the other stuff when voters trust you. real quick, give me capital gains tax deduction. i m going to tell you something, in the real estate world, you lower the capital gains tax, properly will soar, sell, build and develop. and democrats d
you would to have juxtapose the volunteers down there who are doing amazing work, helping people get back on their feet and the government is so dysfunctional with the republicans in charge of everything, i don t think that would be a great optic to have. rick, let me ask you again, trump found himself increasingly isolated after waging these twitter feuds with a number of top republicans. how will this hinder his efforts on getting legislation passed? well, it s just not how you do it. trump needs to learn a whole new skill set in terms of how legislation is passed. his tactics may work in the real estate world, but as senator mccain did point out in his op-ed, that s not the way it works in the legislative world. you have to build alliances and you have to convince the country that your agenda is where they want to go and they ve done neither. emily, back to you. i d like to ask you, by tuesday trump is expected to announce his decision on daca. what s expected to fall out if t
diplomatic voice. but this president has shown a predilection for tough talk. he values tough talk actually. the difference is this isn t like the new jersey casino world or the new york real estate world. this is him as the voice of both american military and the american state department. he loves it when you dice it up and punch around. remember the heat george w. bush took for saying in the wake of 9/11, he wanted bin laden dead or alive, gunslinger terms. if you try to do the other historical parallel and say it s richard nixon s mad men theory and he s trying to move that ball forward, i think that s trying to enforce structure,
