New heights in another national poll. A New Washington post abc news poll puts trump at 38 support. 23 points ahead of his closest rival, senator ted cruz. This is the second poll this week showing trump with a massive lead over his rivals. Our top story, the obamas administrations out right deceptions about the war against the Islamic State. A day after president obama said the Islamic State has lost thousands of square miles of territory in iraq and syria, a new pentagon report released today warns the terrorist group is quote, operationally emergent in afghanistan. The commander, said supporters in the country are rising and trying to establish a base in the eastern city of julaw lubad. Right now, the Islamic State loyalists dont have to ability to attack the United States or europe but they have expressed a desire to do so. Joining us tonight, fox news analyst general jack keane. He talks about a shrinking Islamic State at the pentagon. What are we to make . Believe the report. The harsh reality, the Islamic State has expanded with formalized documented affiliate relationships with Nine Countries and theyre expanding into three more probably within the next 30 to 60 days, afghanistan, and pakistan. They are there one, because they can. Number two, theyve gauot two strategic regions. They want to undermine the al qaeda leadership that operates out of pakistan. Theyre going to take advantage of what they believe is another u. S. Withdrawal, much as they did in iraq. They see this as huge strategic opportunity for them to succeed in that part of the world. The United States retains significant special Operations Forces in afghanistan. But frankly the United States is dependent entirely upon those special Operations Forces to exert the political will of the United States. And were looking at the possibility, are we not that those troops could be withdrawn relatively quickly, are we not . Oh, yeah, the president has not committed tod a sizable fore past 2016. He holds the cause on that decision. Special operation folks, commander at fort brag, they are a considerable multiplier and enabler. You need intelligence to feed to them so they can act. We pulled a lot of intelligence out in terms of our guys on the ground. Its almost as if this administration has decided to use our special Operations Forces for ways in which they were never attended. Never a strategy if we can discern the administrations strategy at all. A strategy that has a requisite number of regular forces that would have to be deployed in order to seize and old significant regions of territory. No doubt about that. Conventional forces on the grounds win wars. Thankfully, we have the best of all of that. The best special ops, conventional ground forces, best air power in the world. And all of them, likely, coming home if this administration has its way very so soon. A further vacuum about to be created. Secretary ash carter in turkey to what end . The problem is, the president of turkey has told us for two years now as have the other arab states in the region that their priority is assad and his removal so syria can be stabilized and this civil war can come to an end. We disagree with that. Because what was a priority for us has been a nuclear deal with iran. That has trumped this action. Now were on there with our hand out saying we need help with is isis. Hes not going to do much to help us until we change the tactic against the assad regime. The president said we have to deal with the Syrian Civil War before we can go after isis. Today, secretary kerry meeting with sergei lavrov, the Prime Minister of russia. The socalled Syrian People will decide the fate of bash aral assad, which means bash aral assad will determine his fate. This is the first astonishing example. This is an example of the u. S. Commitment to the belligerent. Vladmir putin holds all the cards. Hes propped up the assad regime. It was in danger of being encroached upon by the rebel forces. Hes sitting at the table and saying these are my terms. Assad and his regime will stay. He may trade assad for a better deal. Were backing away from assad and this regime have to change because they have killed and murdered their people and were wiping that slate clean. We have done it before with iran and we have done it before with iraq. Its tragic. But its a pattern of behavior thats so sad to see play out. And of course, sad indeed. Syrias partner along with russia is iran. Today, the iaea agreed to close the file on Iranian Development of weapons. This after two icbm missiles were test pin contravention of Un Security Council resolutions. And they march toward the lifting of sanctions and release of 150 billion to the iranians next year underway at full speed. This was stunning today, lou. The board of governors of the iaea meeting after weeks of inspection attempts at a military facility to try to determine what irans complicity was weaponizing nuclear weapons. Thats what the issue was been. They know iran was lying to them. They put that in reports that iran lied and deceived them. They decided thattiate not going to be factor in the conditions to lift the sanctions. The sanction vote takes place on tuesday. They will lift the sanctions despite the fact that iran is lying to us again. Im sure well hear a lot from senator Mitch Mcconnell and Speaker Paul Ryan on this. Im sure theyll have a way to make certain the National Security is assured. I will not ask you to respond to that. Thats my side. General, thanks for being with us, as always. We got a cage match just not the one we expected. Ted cruz and marco rubio. Ted supports doubling number of green cards. I understand marco wants to raise confusion. It is not accurate what he just said. How will rubio versus cruz work out . How do you say breakfast in korean . Google voice response achim sigsa. How long does milk last . Google voice; one week after the sellby date. How much vitamin c is. Is in an orange . Set timer for twelve minutes. Google voice ok, twelve minutes. Where can we find donuts around here . Coffee . What about crepes . How about a bagel . What is the most important meal of the day . Google voice breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Foreign policy and fighting terrorism the big themes at the fifth republican president ial debate in las vegas last night. Each of the republican candidates hit the campaign trail today. Their main goal, to convince folks theyre the best choice to keep america safe. National security, Border Security, now the top concerns for voters all across the country. Fox news chief Political Correspondent carl cameron with our report. The day after the final debate of the year, donald trump declared himself the winner and talked Border Security and immigration. Illegal immigration has caused tremendous crime and deaths. Last night the National Front runner defended his proposed ban on muslim immigrants. Were not talking about religious, were talking about security. Jeb bush tried to lead the charge against the celebrity candidate. He would be a chaos president. Im at 42 and youre at three. Do you think this is tough and youre not being treated fairly. Ted cruz was branded as a bit of a maniac by trump, who changed his tune last night with a warning. He is a wonderful temperment. Hes just fine, dont worry about it. You did question his judgment. Marco rubio went straight to iowa where he renewed his criticism of cruz for opposing the Defense Authorization bill and weakening National Security. The defense cuts we are facing in this country already, the ones that are already in place, that some republicans have supported make it even deeper. How are you going to make the sands of the middle east glow if you dont have the bombs or air force to do it with . The battle is likely to be seen next year. John kasich wanted to urge a less divisive agenda. Rubio has been hammering cruz for weakening surveillance programs. Im proud to have joined with conservatives in both the senate and house to reform how we target bad guys. There is nothing we are allowed to do under this bill we could not do before. On immigration, cruz cast rubio as a supporter of amnesty. One commentator said for marco to suggest its the same. Cruz indicated in the past he was open to a path of leading status after building a wall. Rubio says their plans are similar. I personally, am open to allowing people to apply for a green card. It was rand pauls feistiest debate yet. Marco has more allegiance to the liberals than to conservative policy. Chris christie mocked the senators for their legislative bickering. If your eyes are glazing over likes mine this is like being on the floor of the United States senate. The next debate is january 14th hosted by fbn. Its in South Carolina and comes twoeeks before the iwowa caucuses. Joining us is ed rollings and michael goodwin. Great to have you both here. Lets start with rubio and cruz. The cage match we hadnt expected. What do you make of it . Look, i think they hurt each other a bit. They opened up some areas where i think they can both be damaged though, with cruz, of course, it was the vote against the National Defense bill. And with rubio, its the amnesty issue. Those were out there but i think they exploited them. I think trump benefits because the two guys fighting for second place are beating up each other. Did you notice rubio would not respond to the fact he was on the g 8 comprehensive Immigration Reform committee . Gang of eight. Yeah. Lets just say thats a part of his resume hed like to oo i think he was doing that on the air last night. Who me . They are extremely articulate men and very substantive. Theres three people on the stage that really have substance and john kasich is the other who has no personality. Youve got to be kidding me sne. Hes got substance . What kind of substance . It looks like an uncontrolled substance. Im talking about he knows the budget and armed services. It was trumps show. At the end of the day he had a strategy going in there. His demeanor he had a good first hour. I dont think he cares he knows what the triad is. At the end of the day he went in there with 35 or 40 points and didnt lose any. I got a kick out of the fellow. Wanted to pin him down on the triad in terms of the Nuclear Capability of the country talking about submarines and b52s if you get down to it. It was a crazy question. It gave rubio to play mr. Smarty pants. By explaining. I think those three people still are in the game. I think that the governor of new jersey who doesnt want to be the governor anymore wants to go back to his days of the u. S. Prosecutor. That reality the rest of them arent going to make it. The sooner the better it could be a substantive debate if you had three or four people. The numbers still work against a continuing deep dive into some of those issues. Lets ask the Million Dollar question maybe considerably more than that. Who if everybody leaves you want to, lets say were down to four folks, how big are the numbers for trump . Do they go up or is there a leavening process here in your dreams . Depends on the campaign. I think at this point in time, you have to have more substance and serious discussions. If theres three or four people on the stage its not a matter of his personality. Hes here to stay. And my sense is he didnt do anything to hurt himself last night. I thought he looked like the leader last night. He did. You know, we agree on that. The fact is, hes taught these other candidates something. You didnt hear them backing up or apologizing. They werent woofing with one of the questioning, the moderator. Theyre saying, you keep mushpug me. One thing hes taught them. He makes the faces thats part of the trump personality. Poor jeb bush had a camera on him all night was making the stupidest faces at all. Its the first time i had just seen jeb goes after him talking about him being the chaos candidate and all this other stuff. And the cameras goes to trump. He didnt say a word he just does one of those faces as you call it. And he won an argument without saying a word. He did say a word he knocked him on his tail. He could have the rest of it is just overkill. And its interesting because, of course, rubio and cruz who you think would gain the most dare not go after him at all h. Its only bush and fiorina. Rubio got a lesson from trump when he did go after them. Those two guys are the future of the party. Theyre two different wings. Theyre two smart articulate guys. Theyre going to be finalists. I think we have more debates to come. Who won . I personally think rubio won. But at the end of the day trump was the ultimate winner. It was his party and he performed well and didnt lose anything. I think cruz and rubio beat each other up. I think christie scored some points but trump wins because he came in as the winner and goes out as the leader. You know, and trump is obviously, toughened up the field. This is not a bunch of shrinking violets now. I may be wrong in this judgment, but i think they were, many of them at the beginning.

Ive been waiting to do this, a few thoughts of paul ryan. He cant escape my attention of late. He was asked by bill hemmer whether Trumps Campaign is good for the republican party. Here what the speaker said in reply. Look, i think this is a healthy primary process. Weve got great candidates running. I trust the republican primary voter to deliver a very good nominee for us. I didnt hear a yes or no in the answer. Im not youve known me a long time im not going to get into who is up and down in the president ial campaign. Mr. Speaker you got into it big time last week. Speaker ryan is a little late for that innocent act, isnt he . Or his power act. Here is ryan just last week on trumps call to temporarily ban muslims from immigrating to this country while we figure out what the hell is going on. Normally, i do not comment on whats going on in the president ial election. I will take an exception today. This is not conservatism. What was proposed yesterday is not what this party stands for. Whoa. What happened . That was a pretty assertive fellow wagging his finger saying this isnt conservatism. Lets set aside for just a moment if ryan knows what conservatism really is or if hes a conservatism. Today he was so quick to join Mitch Mcconnell and suddenly dismiss all of that talk of a brokered convention hed been boosting previously. This talk is ridiculous. We have a we havent started the iowa caucus. Im one of the millions of primary voters that will sort this out and well have a good nominee. I feel better hes one of millions of voters who will sort it out. Last week he was going to sort it out. I think hes finding out his breeches have gotten big pretty dog gone quick. I think hes pretty well figured out hes worthy of his predecessor. Thats not necessarily if you care, a compliment. He is a card carrying member of the out of touch gop establishment. Still, and with trump only surging in the polls after his comments last week, ryan and the establishment thats been running scared are now trying to hide from the very voters who have had more than a belly full of their usual serving of the establishments deplicity selfserving nonsense. Its beginning to look like some of them, a few of them are getting the message. Lets hope the message against even bolder and louder and absolutely inescapable. Thats just my wish. The quotation of the evening, the frustration and disappointments that we mere citizens experience as we listen to the frequently absurd, often grotesquely dishonest utterings of our government officials, so we turn to a man who knows where of he speak and who spoke this. Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones weve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. Those are words of president barack obama. Who is certainly the change that many now seek. How words live with you. Were coming right back. James comey says the Islamic State is more dangerous because its revolutionized terrorism. The model changes, an entirely different way of approaching terrorism. How do we defeat the new islamic i accept im not 22. I accept im not the rower i used to be. I even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. But i wont accept is getting out there with less than my best. So if i can go for Something Better than warfarin, i will. Eliquis. Eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus it had significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis had both. That really mattered to me. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. I accept i dont have to set records. But im still going for my personal best. And for eliquis. Reduced risk of stroke plus less major bleeding. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you.

Make a wish. Nice. Thanks. Your turn no. Thanks andrew. See,td ameritrade has everything i need for retirement. Like rollover consultants for assistance and portfolio planning tools to help me manage my ira. So, i think im good. Oh well. Luck is in the air. Um. Td ameritrade. You got this. Joining us now to talk about all of this, retired Major General robert scales, former commandant of the u. S. War college, fox news military analyst. Great to have you with us. Before we turn its great to see you. Before we turn to helmond province, liets go to f15s that were suddenly withdrawn. The pentagon having the temerity saying this was going to be a short stint all along. I have not heard the pentagon. They raised the level of their bs in their Public Affairs Office Almost weekly. Ive never seen it this bad. What youre seeing is a Public Affairs dysfunction alt. Remember, those f15s were sent to ramp up the air campaign, to increase the number of dalies sordies from eight to ten to 20 to exploit our new found intelligence advantage. t know where the targets are and youre restricted by the rules of engagement, it doesnt how many aircraft you have on the ground you cant use them all because you dont have to targets. Theyre the only thing that we have available in a Strike Fighter thats available to take on those targets. They were thrown out by the turkish government, were they not . Lets face it, the turks arent really happy with anybody these days. Theyre distemper with the United States and with russia we dont care about their heartburn. What we care about is achieving who are these people . Were talking about lieutenant generals, were talking about a president. Were talking about ash carter, the defense secretary. Suddenly theyre they amount to nothing. In the eyes of the turks. Well, just to set conditions here, remember when the president came out of that pentagon tank briefing last week you could see that he was from his body language he was visibly upset. This is the first visit hes had to the pentagon since july. A lot of a two years is a far bigger raid a visit topoint the story he got from his chiefs was different than the story he got from his civilian advisors. You could tell he was somewhat stunned a bit when he went up on the podium and gave that rather wooden address to the audience. Seven and a half whole minutes of inspiration. Followed by no questions. You can tell he doesnt answer them anyway, i mean but you can tell this is not going well. You can tell that heck, we know that. I mean, we havent got allies in the fight. Finally a coalition is formed by the saudis, 34 states. And the United States had nothing to do with it. I mean, talk about leading from behind. Hes not leading at all. Lets be very clear. All right. Youre not going to have a coalition without the United States leading. I think thats a little too clear, bob. I got to be honest with you, i dont see anything happening, our arab partners have done squat in 14 years. Weve had doctrinal invocation with people like David Petraeus talking about long wars. Thats become u. S. Military doctrine. Here we are 14 years later and we havent won a damn thing. General, thats crazy. Well, lets face it. Nothings going to happen for another 13 months, thats for sure. You know, i dont know. I hope the Islamic State agrees with you. I hope Vladmir Putin agrees with you. But, you know, nothings our side, lou, nothings going to happen on our side. Well have to do something if one of those fine gentlemen decide to do something and see our pentagon on a posture that weve got 13 months to run out here. We dont. We better be ready for it. I think the bottom line is very clear. The one thing you cant get back in war is time. Money wont pay for time. And because we have this socalled strategic pause in place, its allowing the taliban and isis to continue to entrench themselves. It makes plan b which will kick in 2016 far more difficult to execute. Plan b, whatever it is. I hope that we elect somebody, somebody that knows what they are doing. Because this is awful rough stuff for the American People to have to weather. Thats very true. General bob scales, i know that youre you share some of my agative about this, perhaps in some ways more than i do. Thanks so much, appreciate it. Joining us now, Pamela Geller president of the American Freedom defensive initiative. Great to have you here. 102,213 syr 102,213 certains were were granted to come to america. Well, i think its more sinister than that. It was behind our backs. When you consider that back in february, the Islamic State vowed to send half a million refugees to europe. They boasted that they would do that. And they did. We have found that over 80 are not even syrians. So what are they doing there . Just yesterday im most concerned about the 102,000 syrians that have been admitted to this country by virtue of the president s conscious decision without discussing it with the American People or congress. This is a man who is making all sorts of changes in our Society Without the knowledge and the support of the American People. Its sinister. Because its going to be a National Security problem for decades to come. The Islamic State has vowed to send operatives. The lebanese Education Minister said there were 20,000 jihadists in the camp alone. Its dangerous. They can not vet them. Trump says last night. He has nothing to back up not backing up from any part of his call to temporarily ban the immigration of muslims into this country. And he says its a matter of National Security. Do you agree . Absolutely. Heres the gist of it. Islam is a complete system. Its a comprehensive system. Its not just a religion. Its a political, legal, educational dietary, social system. And unlike jewish law which pertains to jews and canon law which pertains to christians. Islamic law asserts its authority over nonmuslims. Its a whole different ball of wax. Its a National Security issue. Nobody cares if you worship a stone, dont stone us with it. Thats the point. The point is do you think that trumps call is now falling on accepting and agreeable ears in this country . Without question. Not in the media, not in academic elites and political elites. Im talking with the American People. Why do you think he soared after he announced that ban . The American People know were in deep trouble. Just this woman tashfeen, she went to the radical mosque. Thanks so much. Thanks for having me. Romantic gestures are great unless they cause road rage. A 24yearold houston man experienced that. He shut down interstate 45 for the best of reasons so that he could propose to his girlfriend. The move so angered other drivers and the District Attorney that they pressed charges for obstruction of the highway. He faced up to six months in jail, a 2,000 fine. Not all bad news. His girlfriend did say yes. Oh, those are not cheering witnesses to all of that were they . Bad judgment fellow, bad judgment. I mean the part about shutting down the freeway. Donald trump hits new highs in National Polls. The more the National Liberal media and the republican establishment try to tear him down. The higher he goes. Well be talking with a former Donald Trump Campaign advisor and political consultant to president s nixon and reagan. Roger stone joins me here next. Here at td ameritrade, they love innovating. And apparently, they also love stickers. Whats up with these things, victor . We decided to give ourselves stickers for each feature we release.

Joining us tonight former Donald Trump Campaign advisor roger stone, working for president s nixon and reagan. Also the author of the recently published book entitled the clintons war on women. Good to have you with us. Lets start with the candidate with 41 in the monmouth national poll. He not only seems to be unstoppable, but with every attack grows stronger. Have you ever seen the like . Never seen anything like this. Ive been in the business almost 40 years. Donald trump is demonstrating the leadership that barack obama refuses to demonstrate. The American People are responding to it. Its been theyre so hungry for leadership, trump is offering unapologetic alpha male leadership. Even though the media has tried to smear him and truncate his position alleging he supports a permanent ban in muslim immigration. I think his temporary ban is where the American People and where the republican primary voters are. Not only his poll numbers, but were watching cruz at least in iowa make a solid move here. Its no longer an outlier. Is trump in your judgment threatening realistically by the Cruz Campaign . Well, polling a caucus is very difficult. And primary polls or preelection polls volatile. If i were in ted cruzs shoes this is seven weeks before i wanted it. The front runner becomes a lightning rod and magnet. That is going to happen to cruz. I think you want to emerge late. Trump is more than competitive in iowa. Getting people to turn out on a cold night to sit around for three hours and vote. Trump on the other hand, i think, could has to finish in the money, one or two. New hampshire is probably a stronger state for him because there are somewhat fewer evangelicals and more catholics in their voter mix. It fits trump, i think a little better. But i dont think theres any reason for panic. The Trump Campaign on the ground in iowa is very wellrun. His folks know what theyre doing. They are pulling new people into the caucuses. I think maybe senator cruz may have peaked sooner than hed liked. I cant imagine cruz or trump, frankly panicking for any reason. They dont convey that to me as eastern a capaci even a capacity in their nartur. The republicans have to understand they have race in which the front runners, at least in the form of trump and cruz, are antiestablishment. And theyre going to be outside the usual two party, one establishment routine that everyone seems so comfortable with in washington. Do you believe the establishment gop will go after trump or cruz whom ever it is . And try to derail them . I absolutely do. Because among the lobbyist class, the donor class, the washington insiders, they are wetting their pants over a trump presidency. Because donald trump is so wealthy, you cant buy him. He doesnt need special interest money, doesnt need pac money or billionaire money. He doesnt need the kochs or paul singer or any of those that seem to be banking on marco rubio. Hes his own man. It would be refreshing for the first time wed have an american president who works for the American People and not some lobbyist or some special interest. That is really turning stomachs in washington. The idea that youd have an unbuyable and unbulliable president in donald trump. I do expect the establishment to gang up on trump. Its a question of survival, isnt it . For them because its all about the money. All about the money. Roger, great to have you with us, we appreciate it. Good talking with you. Roger stone. Many thanks. Up next, democratic strategists, and a republican strategist join us next and well watch the sparks fly. Stay with me. You get a cold. You cant breathe through your nose. Suddenly, youre a mouthbreather. A mouthbreather how can anyone sleep like that . Well, just put on a breathe right strip and pow it instantly opens your nose up to 38 more than Cold Medicine alone. So you can breathe and sleep. Shut your mouth and say goodnight mouthbreathers. Breathe right i built my business with passion. But i keep it growing by making every dollar count. Thats why i have the spark cash card from capital one. I earn unlimited 2 cash back on everything i buy for my studio. And that unlimited 2 cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business. Thats huge for my bottom line. Whats in your wallet . Youre down with crestor. Alright now theres a way you can get crestor for 3. Adding crestor, along with diet, lowers bad cholesterol. Crestor is not for people with liver disease, or women who are nursing,pregnant, or may become pregnant. Tell your doctor all medicines you take. Call your doctor if you have muscle pain or weakness; feel unusually tired; have loss of appetite, upper belly pain, dark urine or yellowing of skin or eyes. These could be signs of serious side effects. Ask for the crestor 3 card. Ask your doctor about crestor. Rnc chairman rents priebus shooting down reports he brokered attempts trying to stop donald trump. On fox news just a short time ago, he insisted no backroom deals trying to shut down trump. I believe well have a nominee at the convention if its donald trump, youre perfectly okay with that . Were going to support whoever the nominee is and were going to have a party than better than its ever been before. All right. Joining us now, former member of george bushs senior staff, and democratic strategist. Here is trump with all of these polls. Hes widening the lead. Hes dominated for six months, hes dominating more. Where does he go from here . Hes got to get around New Hampshire and iowa. Not to win iowa. We talked about cruz being the iowa guy. Hes got to get rest of that and move ahead. What do you think, do you agree . I do. I think its unlikely that trump will win iowa. Tonight i think people will be sniping at cruz, not trump. Trump likes the fact he doesnt get too much air time because he doesnt control the debate. But i also think New Hampshire is the opportunity by which either trump may rise or fall. Because of momentum. People like to go with a winner. If youre winning at the polls you can declare youre a winner. Make sense of this for me in iowa. Whether trumps in the lead or in second, maybe third place. Isnt there really a who cares sort of nature to this . Reminding everyone, santorum and huckabee are the ones who won iowa in the last two cycles not mccain or romney. Trumps vote is not in iowa. Iowa has been why does anybody care . Why . Because people have to write about something. New hampshire is a different issue. Is it a bell weather . Probably not. What happens on that day coming up when all the delegates are at stake, thats the day this gets called. Nine days . Some ridiculous day, you know. And brad, iowa, does it matter or does it not . Would you rather have iowa or New Hampshire if youre running . You want New Hampshire. Heres why iowa matters. Because trumps been leading in the National Polls for six months. And he keeps making pronouncements i am going to win iowa. Im going to win New Hampshire. If he doesnt win, then those people in iowa better listen. But this is an opportunity for the Mainstream Media to try and take trump down. Because of the fact he wasnt won iowa when it doesnt matter. Right now id have to say to you the National Media looks like a bunch of idiots . They have done everything. They have whined, cried crocodile tears, done all this politically correct bs and he goes higher because the American People, at least the republicans that are paying attention to this thing, i mean, they you know they dont want the usual gang, thats what this is about. They want somebody they think has guts . Do you agree, brian . No, i think the media is scared to death of trump because he taked them on like no other politician has ever taken them on. Of course, theyre attacking him. Theyre scared of him, they have a funny way of showing it. He lives for their attacks. Every time they attack him his numbers go up. Its perfect. Lets go to paul ryan, speaker ryan. Mitch mcconnell. Looked like they were calling off the dogs today and rolling over and saying scratch our bellies because were not going to bite on this brokered convention anymore. Were not even going to snarl. What do you think . Look, i think that the speaker is in a difficult position. Every day he wakes up and its like shooting guns at his feet all day long. Step right, step left, step right again. Mcconnell is mcconnell. Different institution the senate, the house is much more comb combative. What happened to regular order with these folks straightening things out . The Republican Leadership in both the senate and house, i dont know if youll agree with me, they look like a bunch of hacks still for the business round table and the chamber of commerce. I dont see what difference their leadership is making at all. There is a big sea change in leadership. Its evident in the house. The fact we havent had a Government Shutdown is evident that there is regular order being held to each body. And weve got to live to fight another day. Obama is done. What we need to do is we need to fight for the next election cycle to tell the American People be careful what you wish for. You got obama. Give us a chance to govern the way we should govern. I admire you for your loyalty to your party, but the facts are, they look dumb, number one. They did a Government Shutdown, they definitely lose the next election. Thats what happened in 95. Exactly. But there wasnt a hint of it. Well, i think what were concluding with is, that mcconnell and ryan were smart enough not to shut down the government. And thats an accomplishment. They didnt draw anymore negative attention to themselves is what that means. It looks like theyre backing off the brokered convention. Its senseless to have a brokered convention those were the folks talking their antitrump nonsense, not me. The question is were going to a question was raised and a question was answered as to procedure. And it got blown out of proportion. You and i have been around too long for that one. Theres a reason all that was leak today the post, come on. No . No brad . Quite frankly, i dont think so. It makes the gop look bad. Im running out of time. Im doing it to myself. Thanks american traitor and a german spy land in main. I saw two men walking towards me. For the first time youll hear from one of hitlers spies sent to steal americas secrets. You were sent to get information on what . The development of atomic energy. We knew the americans were working on atomic energy. Fighting a war in the shadows. Thats next on war stories.
