Part, start with you, ambitious nineday trip covering five countries, the three largest religions, what do you make of its scope . I think its a great scope. The kind of trip you should do. Ashame he has to do it to get back some of the momentum. But i think he will. You can see the hand of people like general mcmaster as well as the president. Theyre thinking broad, thinking strategically, theyre thinkingbout americas alliances and how to position ouelvein ways that help us in terms of security but also economics. So i think its a very good thing for the president even if it comes at a difficult time. Charles gina, some are saying maybe it comes at precisely the right time, getting away from the u. S. Press allowing agenda to breathe while he makes new friends and strengthens relationships abroad. The man knows focus, charles. Lets look at the history he has. Hes run a business, there have been constant distraction, he knows how to deal with the distractions and this is part of the magic what i think is donald trump. People will criticize him for lack of experience in politics, but he perhaps wins each time over whatever weaknesses might be displayed just because he knows things like how not to be distracted by media leaks and other things. He knows good and well are not an attack on him, theyre an attack on the American People. Hes doing the work of the American People. Charles gina, what do you think could happen overseas during the trip that could change the narrative even at home even against the media that we know launched the war against candidate trump a long time ago . So many things. Like was mentioned, meeting with religious leaders hes been accused of somehow bigoted against proving to the whole world hes going to do things that are material like obama really never did. I think obama went to be wined and dined and play a little golf, but i think this president is very serious about moving his agenda of, you know, improving the Business Climate in the United States and reforming trade and reforming our entire, you know, standing in the ud states. So i think thats what hell do. Charles paul, to that point, President Trump going with 25 Business Leaders in a variety of business industries. I dont think a lot of americans know we actually went to a trade surplus with saudi arabia last year, theres a lot of room for growth with us there. So i think for one thing, if youre talking about an economic agenda with america first, were going to come away with good deals from this trip. No question, already, as you know there are ceos from some of our largest corporations are already there, theyre on the ground before the president gets there, theyre working deals. This is the scope of the president s view that not only does he need to put the United States back in the leadership economically and in terms of security in that part of the world that obama had made our name really a pariah among many of the people. He gets the tv image, the longer story is this is an administration on the move. Yes, there have been hiccups but the administration is on the move. I give credit to National Security team too as well. I think general mcmaster has been help putting this together. Charles gina, from the optics of president obamas first visit around the world, which lets face it was apology tour, it was filled with a lot of bowing and subsequently followed up with policies that put iran or saudi arabia, the palestinians over israel and turned upse down longterm relationips we had and many people believe made an unstable region more dangerous. I think thats such a great point, charles, this is going to be the contrast opposite of that. This is going to be about america positioning again from a bargaining again from a position of strength. This is about america first. But that doesnt mean, this is President Trump, the master negotiator. He knows how to talk to World Leaders and tell them whats in it for them and negotiate that deal that is best for both parties. Its very telling, charles that the moment he got on that plane to go there today, the New York Times and the Washington Post saw fit to leak a new fake news story. That tells you how threatened they are by the fact hes making this trip right here, right now. Charles typical 5 00 bombshell came about an hour and a half earlier. Exactly. Charles i want to ask but that, paul, you would think at some point maybe the American Public may start to turn tone deaf to some of the things because theyre all steeped in Anonymous Sources or fancy memos or not corroborated among anything but conjecture . They are tired of unnamed sources, people reading letters other people wrote to other people into a reporters telephone. That doesnt make sens ithe president has Forward Momentum on economic deals, security arrangements, critics have to reevaluate them, he is understanding how to put the United States in leadership with muslim nations in ways that makes us more secure, hes getting them to do things he was saying in his campaign we need to see. I think the American People will see this trip has a possibility of being a big success for him. Charles paul, let me ask you, you talked about the white house itself, some of the issues involving President Trump just a function of him being a businessman, not a professional politician, and the world of really lets face it rattlesnakes where at the end of the day, most of them are out only for themselves, even when you think theyre on your team . No, its exactly right, and i think the president s experience in business has stood him well, particularly in new york city, stood him well. There are enemies everywhere, even for reasons you cant what happened their opposition is. Its ideological, emotional, it has nothing to do with profits. Thats something for them to get used to and i think given the circumstances he came into, theyre not doing as bad a job as they could, it could be worse, and the learning curve is in their favor, particularly with a trip like this, and getting the investigation about the russia collusion off the front page as much as possible. Charles gina, i want to invent the nevertrump meter, right after the inauguration in his joint speech speech to the joint session of congress, you would have had that nevertrump meter going to now were on board, now were on board. In the last two weeks gone decideback to e other direction. Lot of the folks are coming back to original positions and theyre hammering President Trump as much as the Mainstream Media, as much as democrats, you know, republicans or others who have never wanted him to be the standard bearer for the party, and are you worried about that having as detrimental impact as all the other things that the president faces . No, im not because i think they discredited themselves over and over again. The American People are looking at things like 400,000 jobs created last month. 4 gdp. Their country feeling safer and better economically than its felt in years, about the optimism and the hope thats out there, especially on the economic front but even on the Foreign Policy front. And i dont think the average person cares all the intricacies with comey and i dont think people care about that. I think people care about whats hitting them at home when they get home from work every day, and theyre going to start taking note as our economy continues to improve. Thats the real traction that trump has that the media is oblivious to. Charles no doubt that optimism polls are extraordinary nearly high, whether its Small Business, paul, nevertheless, we saw the market have a really big hiccup on the front pages of a lot of papers. Have you people that arent in the markets paying attention and thats some form of a proxy. Having said that, how critical is it that President Trump come way, from this nineday trip looking, a, president ial, bringing back tangible goodies and saying to the world, hey, i did it, i represented america and dian i did an amazing job. The market has come back some but its down for the week. What you say charles is exactly right. Id be a little worried if the president does not go on the offensive and stay on the offensive, have the cabinet out there. Mnuchin talking about tax cuts. Everybody needs to be on the offensive because the communication from the white house Going Forward needs to be trumpeting things hes doing and achieving, and i think they can do that. No question he wants to do that and were better from that. Charles real quick, gina, please . On the other hand too, if the media on the left decides not to cover, it i dont think it matter as much, i think people select their news at this point. There are intelligent consumers and people try to find out what did trump do on the tour if the media decides not to cover it by and large. Not so sure it matters whats covered as much as what he accomplishes while there. Charles thank you very much.

Sunday, may 21st eight seven central only on abc. Charles its time to call off the media dogs, new study revealing bias and media has gone off the rails here. 90 of the president s coverage are negative. The harshest offenders being cnn, cbs, nbc and the New York Times. You are at the salt conference in las vegas, the media came up a lot. You seem incensed about it all. Look, i think we have a real big problem going on. We have too many reporters who are repeating and retweeting stories that they havent checked. They havent taken the time to look at to see whether or not this is true. They donte an origil source. Theyre relying on someone elses, when theres a mistake as weve seen on the front page of the New York Times where they literally claimed that somehow comey asked for more funding for his investigations into russian ties with the trump campaign. This anonymous source that comey was asking for this right before he was fired. What we found out later is it is not true. Now that story was on the front page of the New York Times, a1 above the fold. How do we get that back . There is no correction, reporters dont admit that was wrong, they just go on. There are literally no consequences to what weve seen. So i think what weve got to do is deal with these Anonymous Sources, they need to be ferreted out. We need to figure out where they are and these people need to be fired or prosecuted if theyre leaking classified information, because it is not correct, its not right, its not helpful to our democracy if were having people leak for partisan,. Charles, theyre not whistleblowers these people, they are not speaking truth to power. They are literally doing this because they have an interest in the 2020 election. Thats partisan politics inside our intel agencies. The media are not going to call thesople out. The media want to see this happen. They thrive on leaks, and so i think what we have to do in the public is we have to demand regulators in congress and the Trump Administration figure out who these leakers are and prosecute them and fire them. Charles ric, i agree 1,000 . Want to bring in two strong critics of media bias. Adrianna you wrote an article earlier this week to rics point, the magnitude of what were starting to see right now. Exactly. Yesterday i wrote a column in the Boston Herald talking about media bias how we have never in American History seen a venomous media go after a sitting president. The new harvard study thats been released reaffirm ways when stated in my column that President Trump is not getting fair and neutral coverage, and i think what is happening, charles is in the good old days of journalism, journalists were politically neutral and reported stories based on facts. That is long gone now for the most part. There are so many Mainstream Media journalists who are political operatives and they are not covering the news fairly. Look at how many times President Trump has had a success that they dont cover. But then they manufacture crises after crises after crises, as ric pointed out a lot of the stories arent even true and try to create this false perception that theres chaos in the administration ats not true. Charles i want to bring this up and it hurts our country because charles adrianna let me bring this up. To solve our countrys problems. Charles you hit on a great point. We got to bring up this because every day now seems this week theres been a 5 00 bombshell, it happened today around 3 30. Two bombshells, one from the Washington Post, one from the New York Times forcing spicer to put out a communique that more or less said listen, were focused on issues. Bree, these are timed to catch the evening news cycle, timed to catch the white house offguard and have been successful in that regard. Youre completely right. I dont know about you, im sick of bombshell after bombshell that are only to be disregarded later on and told the leakers and the unnamed source who are supposedly feeding them all this information ended up kind of not being true. We saw this earlier this week when the media was insisting that donald trump leaked classified information to top officials, top intel officials unequivocally denied. That the media is snarky how theyre covering this. In that study there was some figures about the way that the medias been covering the donald Trump Presidency as you said. 98 negative whereas i think only 30 or 40 was negative about president obama, and you kn all throughout obamas tenure and all throughout his presidency, his administration would leak classified information all the time and the media didnt care. This double standard shows that the media isnt about holding those in power accountable. This isnt about telling the truth. This is about pushing a partisan agenda. Charles the day and age of the bipartisan media even trying to be bipartisan is long gone. Guys, thanks a lot. Its been months and so far no evidence, yet democrats today calling for independent commission to investigate the Trump Administration. You know how painful heartburn can be. For fastacting, longlasting relief, try doctor recommended gaviscon. It quickly neutralizes stomach acid and helps keep acid down for hours. Relieve heartburn with fast acting, longlasting gaviscon. His connection to the kremlin and what they were involved in, which we and i consider to be collusion. I really do believe that much of what you saw coming out of trumps mouth was a play from putins playbook. Just to be clear, there has been no actual evidence yet. No there has not been, no has not. Charles antitrump crusader Maxine Waters proving no evidence of collusion between trump and russia. Why are there five investigations . Maybe President Trump is right, maybe this is a witchhunt. Gianno, Maxine Waters is priceless at this point, but for her to auntie maxine, right . Charles auntie maxine, shes out there and gone crazy and the brief moments of sanity, she does admit there is no evidence despite months and months of instigation of any collusion. I absolutely agree, and i know aumber he folks on the trump team, people that work in the white house and integrity is beyond reproach, seen it time and time again. I must tell you, charles this is a good thing they appointed a private investigator to look into. This not because i think theres a there there, but it has the potential to drag us into the midterms, we saw what happened to Hillary Clinton which i believe there was a there there, though they said there wasnt, it did damage the campaign. I dont want any republican to damage majority in the house and, of course, in the senate. Charles no guarantee how long, mark, this is going to last. We know youve got four or five official investigations, the democrats today calling for yet another independent commission. Yeah, heres the thing, theyll come to a variety of different conclusions. To me its absolutely nuts and you got to say, if this is not a witchhunt, it is some form of piling on. Well, as a lawyer, what i would call this is a fishing expedition, no judge would allow, no evidence of wr
