He hasnt gone to california yet. So its really a remarkable achievement. Lou and joining us here tonight Donald Trumps son eric, he is with us on how his father will help unite the Republican Party and bring victory in november. And more endorsements for trump including from former House Speaker john boehner who said, quote, anyone who thinks donald trump cant win just watch. Well take up trumps path to the presidency with ebony williams, chris plante, and the chairman of the rnc Reince Priebus today also meeting with trump. Priebus said trump gets it. Listen, i think donald trump gets it, i think he understands about being president ial and tone and tenor. Im confident of that, and so im looking forward to moving forward next week and continuing this unification process. Lou as you might guess, the real question is does the republican establishment get it . Lee carter, rich lowry join us to talk about it. Will National Review lowrie get it and support trump you . Will find out tonight. And Bernie Sanders says hes no zombie candidate, as his new attacks on Hillary Clinton drive democrats farther apart. Stuart varney will be here to examine what that division means for the general election. Our top story tonight, the art of the deal and how to get the job done, exactly what we saw with Donald Trumps highly anticipated meetings with speaker ryan. Top republican lawmakers in the house and senate. The two men met for 45 minutes and afterwards speaker ryan said they agreed on the big issues. I was very encouraged with what i heard from donald trump today. I do believe that we are now planting the seeds to get ourselves unified, to bridge the gaps and differences. Lou and an interview that will air tonight with sean hannity, trump says ryan is a man he can do business with. I think hes doing a good job. Not an easy job, and i dont mind going through a little slow process, its a very big subject. We have a lot of things, and i think for the most part we agree on a lot of different items, and were getting there. I feel very strongly about border security. I feel very strongly about trade. I feel very strongly about building up the military. And to a large extent, i think paul is there also. Lou joining us, the son of the Presumptive Republican president ial nominee, the Vice President of development and acquisitions for the trump organization, eric trump. Eric, great to have you here. Great to be here, lou. Great to be here. Lou lets start with all that happened in washington. Mr. Trump goes to washington. How does he feel he did . Is he pleased with the results . Very pleased. Talking to him, i was walking down today, hes pleased. You got to get to know these people. Hes never walked the streets of washington, d. C. Never walked capitol hill. This isnt his thing. Hes built an amazing real estate empire and he had a great conversation with paul ryan today and a lot of other people. Listen in time, hell get to know these people. Theyll get to like him. What hes done for the Republican Party is amazing. Amazing. The amount of votes and Everything Else is amazing. I hope they jump on the bandwagon because hes a winner and can win this thing. Lou he is a winner and he is winning, as someone i like very much, respect very much said donald trump walked into a dark alley with 16 others and is the only one torques merge. So what is the secret of your fathers success, in an area where hes never contested an election run for office . Probably being a person and not a robot. I say that sincerely. How many times do you see these candidates up on stage and its the same rehearsed statement over and over. Can you tell they rehearsed it 400 times in front of a mirror. He talk from the heart and he doesnt care and doesnt tiptoe around issues and speaks issue tos, and issues may be controversial, and some they might like and wont like, and lot of the issues people have dodged historically over time, but also the issues that have cost this country tremendously, and he takes the issues head on. Hes doing this for the American People. He doesnt need it, hes selffunding, that resonates with a lot of people. Lou the reason hes winning is because hes addressed those issues head on. Hes talked about conservatism, i dont know whether it surprised you or not, he said its not the conservative party, he said its the Republican Party. Thats right. Lou that needed to be articulated. Your father has this inherent ability to communicate what is required at the moment, whether it be initially dealing with illegal immigration and border security, free and Fair International trade. 2015 just turned out to be the alltime record for deficits with china. So where does he get this knack . Hes been saying it forever, talking about trade forever and how bad nafta was and how bad tpp was for the country. If you look at manufacturing jobs since 2000, its a Straight Line downward. We dont make anything anymore, dont produce anything anymore. When i hear a public leader say you have to come into our party, and i look at my father and hes got 10, 11, 12 million voters behind him. More enthusiasm than ive ever seen for any candidate, unprecedented enthusiasm against maybe the strongest republican field ever, kind of like it may be your party, its the Peoples Party at this point, and its interesting to see the dichotomy. Lou interesting, eric, to see the Republican Party now with more more voters showing up than they know what to do with, in point of fact. The national apparatus, talking about primarily the Republican National committee, some of the capitol hill leadership, its as if they dont know what to do with people coming into the party. Growing the tent. And to see this resistance on the part of particularly paul ryan. I know everybody is happy and making nice, but as i watch paul ryan, im incredulous, ive been covering president s and National Politics for, this will shock you, but longer than youve been around. About 40 years, and ive never seen anything like it. Motives that are inexplicable, decisions, choices that are made that have nothing to do with the good of the party, its bizarre. Yeah, and listen, to me as a nonpolitician it was shocking, too. The initial move without the endorsement is shocking. You look at pennsylvania, the western part of the state. 180,000 democrats and independents switched to the Republican Party just in the primary to vote for my father. You look at West Virginia. 40 of Bernie Sanders supporters wouldnt vote for Hillary Clinton, in the general election theyll vote for donald trump. You have hoards and hoards of people coming in, in the primaries doing that, you should grab these people. Its time for the Republican Party to grow. The Republican Party has been shrinking. Here is somebody grabbing onto a Massive Movement of people, i wish the party would get behind it. Hes a winner, knows how to win, and hell win this thing, and hell work tirelessly to win, it hell work harder than anybody. Lou thats one of the things ive seen few address. The fact is your dad is a pretty smart fellow. No doubt about that. Hes a pretty innovative fellow and a great communicator, but he works like hell. Nobody in this field of what was once 17 candidates, those other 16 didnt come close to working as hard as he did. Lou, im on the road with him. Well go to four events where hes speaking to 20,000 people. And another event, 20,000 people. Do you it four times. I cant believe this i said this, i cant believe you still have a voice. On the plane, hes talking to reporters. Were having fun together. Hes got the energy level of a 30yearold. Its amazing. Lou has he always had that or is he energized by the battle . Big in the arena. Certainly energized by the battle, but always been a guy that works tirelessly at what he works, i call him the energizer bunny, thats what we need as commander in chief, somebody who will work tirelessly for the American People, and thats what the man will do. He doesnt know any different way, he just doesnt know any different way. Thats what hes going to do. Lou eric trump, great to have you with us. Thank you so much. Lou im going to take your recommendation there as an objective voice, because ive often said, you know, you can be objective, it doesnt mean you have to be neutral, and its great to have you here. Good luck. Thank you, thank you. Lou eric trump. Coming right back, much more straight ahead. Stay with us. Donald trump and House Speaker paul ryan coming together. Its very important that we dont fake unifying, we dont pretend unification, that we truly and actually unify so we are full strength in the fall. Lou so when does ryan come to his senses and officially endorse trump . Whats his deal . Eboni williams and chris plante join us here next. And a bald eagle swoops in with its eyes and more on the prize. Prize. Well shim in vests and as a vested investor in vests, i invest with e trade, where investors can investigate and invest in vests. Or not in vests. Sign up at etrade. Com and get up to six hundred dollars. Lou donald trump today picking up a number of endorsements. John boehner backing the presumptive president ial nominee saying, quote, anyone who thinks donald trump cant win, just watch. President george h. W. Bush said he wont endorse trump but his Vice President did. Vice president dan quayle announcing his support, and newt gingrich, the former speaker endorsing trump. He also asked if hed be trumps Vice President. Well, id certainly talk about it, i wouldnt turn it down automatically. And callista and i are both aware of the importance of being good citizens, it keeps getting brought up because you keep bringing it up. Lou darn media joiningug the host of the chris plante show, chris plante and Fox News Contributor eboni williams. Eboni, first, it appears that donald trump and speaker ryan at least have some form of rapprochement and are ready to move forward in a positive manner, that doesnt sound like an endorsement. Short of that. Were seeing the art of deal at play. I had no doubt going into the meeting, donald had a specific goal to get what they have in common down, i think from there, you grow it. Thats what i think. Lou chris . Well, paul ryan is kind of a unique position as speaker of the house, and hes got to play possum or loses all leverage. If hes looking to push donald trump in one direction or another on one issue or another, and we know that he is, then he cant exercise that leverage if he comes out now and endorses him, that is the art of the deal as eboni said, paul ryan is playing the cards hes dealt and i expect him to haggle and negotiate and the party is going to do that with donald trump over the major issues and the minor issues from this point forward, i expect. I expect ryan to get on board with everyone else, i would expect. I would expect. Ill join you in the i would expect. [ laughter ] but i think the optics today were incredible. Theres trump with his convoy of big suvs looking for all the world, you want him to be president ial, he looked president ial and filled up all of the space that a bigger than life character like him will do, and then you had the almost, i thought very uncomfortable paul ryan, whether he was before the cameras or actually at the podium, he didnt look good in all of this, even as hes talking, he looks kind of i dont know defeated . Is that the word . Lou he looked small by comparison. When you think about it, he is. Hes playing obstructionist rather than partner. Thats a really bizarre choice for him to have made. I was talking to dr. Gina loudon in the green room, shes a psychologist. Seems like theres a generational split if you will. Some of the older statesman in the gop, boehner coming out, theyre falling in line with the trump candidacy, but we look at paul ryan still so reluctant, younger people, rubio and what not, so reluctant, heres what they think. Maybe they feel like trump represents an interruption of their expected trajectory in this party. Lou hes an interruption, a disruption, hes a new man for the party, you are exactly right. Heres the great disrupter, he is antiestablishment and talking with a 17year now congressman who i think is two years from the time he graduated from college he spent in washington, d. C. , the personification of the establishment. The fact they got along this far to me is impressive. Well, listen, its been a big food fight and donald trump plays rough, and paul ryan is in a tough situation, if it were any other republican speaker of the house, theyd be in a similarly tough situation like Reince Priebus says. Lou whats so tough . Whats so tough . You have trump who is you have the presumptive nominee of the party, should be like that. Hes a bit rogue, not a traditional republican, not a traditional conservative. Lou hes a guy who wants to cut Social Security, medicare. He is establishment, hes not even conservative for crying out loud . Youre talking about paul ryan . Lou yes. Paul ryan has that problem too, he has problem with the right flank, the conservative wing of the conservative party. He has problem builtin without donald trump. Donald trump comes along and hes in the middle of two great Tectonic Forces that are colliding inside of the Political Party and paul ryan is the highestranking setting aside the presumptive nominee the highestranking nominee in the country. Lou is that the problem . Its a power play, of course it is, lou. Lou suddenly paul ryan understands that donald trump is the boss . Absolutely. Lou is that really the problem . Absolutely, it was gracious of mr. Trump to defer to paul ryan as the person in charge of the gop and everyone in america knows thats not true. Certainly this is trumps party, and i think that absolutely that is a tough pill for the gop establishment to swallow. I think Reince Priebus is having a tough time but ultimately i believe the gop will get in line. It will not serve to stay divided in this. I certainly hope you are right, eboni, in the meantime, youre going to see pressure applied to donald trump regarding specific issues and regarding the broad brush and conservative principles, issues. What is the leverage . What world do they have leverage to get trump on the agenda. Lou i just get a kick out of Reince Priebus saying donald trump gets it. [ laughter ] that was very impressive. Were going to see a lot of that sort of thing in the coming weeks. Lou senator cornyn said he could word things a little better. Sorry. A lot of folks have gotten it but few holdouts in the Republican Party. I think theyll come around or suffocate. Chris plante, eboni williams, thanks for being with us. Thank you, lou. Lou be sure to vote in our poll tonight looks that way, doesnt it, cast your vote on twitter. Follow me on twitter, like me on facebook, follow me on instagram at lou dobbs tonight. Great pictures there, some have me in it. Those are not really what we call the great pictures. Loudobbs. Com, everything. The pictures are all right. A fisherman catching a surprise at the end of his line. Heres the incredible moment a bald eagle dive bombed a trout, snatching it off a fishermans well, off his line in maple lake ontario. The resident eagle known for stealing fish from unsuspecting fishermen. The clever bird finding a way to pinch a lunch. Smarter than the fisherman. Where does this leave the fish . Down the food chain, i believe. Up next, Bernie Sanders fresh off his recent string of primary victories. Man is he creating problems for one Hillary Clinton, and highlighting the deep divisions in the Democratic Party. In state after state, and not just in the states that we win, it turns out that we get far more votes than secretary clinton from people 45 years of age and younger. [cheers].

For the republicans, most of the fault lines between factions are manufactured. A failed ticket from four years ago appears embittered, petty or political ambitions frustrated by the trump phenomenon. In the case of paul ryan his intransigence is the result of being on the
