Transcripts For FBC Risk And Reward With Deidre Bolton 20160

FBC Risk And Reward With Deidre Bolton March 11, 2016

Trump in his race for the white house. This is risk reward. Im deirdre bolton. Of the five key primaries on tuesday, two big prizes, ohio and florida. Here is the count. Trump 459. Cruz 360. 1237 is the number to win the gop nomination. Without question, without dispute. Blake burman is with me now. Blake, what are your sources telling you about dr. Ben carsons endorsement for donald trump . Do they see it as a gamechanger . Reporter deirdre, this is unlikely to be a gamechanger. If we looked at this political season so far and what endorsements have meant, there is debate really on both sides just how much they actually impact or sway voters. Take donald trump for one example. Most highprofile endorsement before dr. Ben carson today was governor sarah palin. She was unveiled right before iowa with. Trump ended up losing iowa and lost alaska caucuses which is palins home state. Might this give him some sort of a boost . Sure. It can certainly help donald trump. But a gamechanger, that might be a little too much, a little too far going with that term. It is, if you take the 1,000foot view here though, not necessarily unlikely that donald trump would receive the endorsement of dr. Ben carson. Carson of course is a political outsider, somebody who has not run for office ever in his career and he is endorsing donald trump, a political outsider, somebody who has never run for office in his career. However, as you also remember things got pretty heated back in november between trump and carson, really onesided as trump went on the attack of coarse son as carson started rising in the polls, especially not only nationally but also in iowa as well. He went after whether carson, he went after carsons faith. Went after his storyline as a child. Reason at one point compared him to a child molester. This was the quote at the time. Im quoting here. If youre a child molester, there is no cure. They cant stop you. Path owe logical, there is no cure. Carson he said was pathological. Now you have four months later endorsement for donald trump from ben carson. He called trump a very intellectual man who cares deeply about america. He called him cerebral as well. There was a moment that kind of put trump on defensive a little bit. Carson said there are two Donald Trumps, one you see privately and one you see publicly. That had reporters asking what donald trump are we seeing now . Yeah there are two trumps. Walked it back, there is only one donald trump. Either way a big endorsement for trump. Deirdre it is. Blake burman there. Some call carson and trump the odd couple. There is this past history of insults. Dr. Carson addressed the issue. We buried the hatchet. That was political stuff and you know, that happens in american politics, the politics of personal destruction, all that. It is not something that i particularly believe in or anything that i get involved in. Deirdre for their take what this endorsement means for tuesday and beyond, my political power panel is here. Lisa booth, founder of high noon strategies. Democratic pollster jessica tarlov. Welcome to you both. Lisa, how much does carsons endorsement help trump . You heard my colleague say it is not really a gamechanger but it moves the needle slightly. Do you agree with that . I agree with blakes assessment. The endorsements this election cycle have not met as much as they have previously. As blake pointed out sarah palin endorsed donald trump. He did not carry alaska. Marco rubio has recipient of most endorsements from sitting governors and representatives. That has not done enough jolt his campaign as he so desperately needs it. Sew lid nyes the Republican Base for donald trump. It helps with evangelical christians. There is a lot of focus on ohio and florida, important winnertakeall states. We also cant forget illinois and missouri. If you look at a state like missouri, 35 or 36 of republican primary voters are evangelical christians. Perhaps this moves the needle a little bit with evangelical christians trump will try to pick up. Deirdre fair enough. So far he has actually done better than expected than that group at cruzs expense. Jessica, dr. Carson says there are two trumps. Here is a quick sound bite and i want to get your opinion on it. There are two different Donald Trumps. Theres the one you see on the stage and there is the one who is very cerebral, sits there, considers things very carefully. That is the donald trump you will start seeing more and more of right now. Deirdre when you think of president ial candidate, steadiness of character, versus unpredictability, which has more value, not a facetious question. Maybe dealing with foreign leaders maybe it is useful to be unpredictable . I dont think this is unpredictable. Donald trump will throw out there more than a curveball every once in a while. This is where ben carson has very little political skills. He went out there and said that and donald trump obviously had to walk it back. Trump talked about this as well in the debate and in the morning after when he had a conversation about some of his comments. You know, he said, i said some things but that doesnt mean thats who i am. On tuesday night he said, i can be president ial when i want to but i guess i just didnt want when i was standing up on the debate stage. Deirdre i think the idea say what it takes to get support to get elected and then i will do the job after. Well, maybe. I cant really tell what his definition of doing the job is. For me ive never been a tremendous fan of ben carson but really calls into question what he is thinking. Whether he is, actually more of a politician at the core, he thinks donald trump is on his way to the nomination and i want to get on with that. He talked to him about education. I would have thought he would go for Surgeon General but maybe wants to head education department. Im not sure here but he was talking to neil in the last hour, evangelical is someone who has jesus christ as centerpiece of his life. I dont think anyone including donald trump could argue that jesus christ is centerpiece of his life. It is concerning to me. Evangelical voters dont seem to have problem with it. Who am i to say. Im a jew. Deirdre speaking of, speaking of religious matters, a reporter did ask dr. Carson if god led him to backing donald trump . Heres what doctor carson said. Dr. Carson you said throughout your life god has led you to your most important decisions. This truly is an important decision. Did god lead you to donald trump . I prayed about it a lot and i got a lot of indications, people calling me, that i havent talked to for a long time saying, i had this dream but and donald trump. Just amazing things. But you know, i also tend to think that the way god speaks to you is by giving you wisdom and that wisdom says to me that if we allow this attempt to disrupt the will of the people to be successful, it will fracture the party in irreparable way. Deirdre so, lisa, did dr. Carson do it to keep the party from splitting . Do you think thats where he is coming from . You know, potentially. We have seen a schism in the party in the sense of 2 3 of Republican Voters have not voted for donald trump but that said, democrats and independent voters voting in some of the contests that republicans have had. So i think there is something to be said there to trying to unite the party. I really think well know a lot on march 15th. We might not know everything depending what happens but if donald trump gets to that 1237 he needs to clinch the nomination i do think youll have a lot of people like ben carson, where may have been previous disputes between donald trump and that individual maybe step forward and throw their support behind donald trump. Similarly like we saw with governor chris christie. That being said this thing is not over. March 15th is still heading up and a variety of scenarios could play out here. Deirdre indeed. Well talk more about the 15 in a few moments. Lisa and jessica back with me shortly. Speaking of tuesday, winnertakeall states especially ohio and florida. A big focal point. Coverage starts at seven p. M. Eastern time. Were all on deck. Supporters and people getting physical at trump rallies. Incidents of shove having been reported. Some are being investigated by the police. Some say trump is inciting the behavior. Were going to see if the tone is different tonight. There is a trump rally asked aisled to begin in just a few hours. People are gathering. This will be taking place, university of illinois and chicago. Thousands of students are expected to show up and protest. Well cover it for you. Deirdre speaking of controversy, i. T. Specialist Bryan Pagliano proving to be a devastating witness in the fbi probe. This is on the subject of Hillary Clintons personal email setup. Well tell you what he divulged to the fbi so far.

Assuming she is allowed to run, assuming she is not arrested for the email situation [cheering] which is so terrible, which is so terrible deirdre Hillary Clintons former i. T. Specialist could ultimately be a devastating witness to clinton. Bryan pagliano is the one who set up the private email server and he has been granted a kind of fast track immunity. Fox newss Catherine Herridge has the latest. Catherine, what details are pagliano sharing . What has he given to the fbi. Reporter thank you, deirdre, good afternoon. Intelligence source close to the investigation tell us that Clinton Former i. T. Special cyst Bryan Pagliano how the unsecured email system was set up, who had access when and what devices were used. Fox news was told that pagliano who struck immunity deal with the Justice Department late last year has provided a kind of a road map to investigators and importance to the fbi case can not be overemphasized. Source who is not authorized to speak on the record due to the sensitivity of the Ongoing Investigation said his information is helping investigators knit together the emails with other evidence including images of mrs. Clinton using her devices on the road as secretary of state. Cbs recently pressed mrs. Clinton about the fbi probe an paglianos immunity deal. Its a security review. Im delighted that he has agreed to cooperate as everyone else has and i think that well be moving toward a resolution of this. Reporter intelligence source said that the fbi is quote, extremely focused on the 22 top secret emails that are too damaging to the National Security to publicly release under any circumstances with agents reviewing those sent by clinton and her team to identify what their intent was. And that is really critical to the investigation to see if they had information or understanding that classified information was being handled. Whats important about these messages which have been denied release by the Intelligence Community that the fbi is now looking at is significantly the fact that there has to be an accounting how those messages came to be. Reporter clinton says nothing she sent or received was marked classified at the time but the federal rules on this issue are very clear, that classified information is based on the content, not the markings on the sheet of paper. Deirdre. Deirdre catherine, thank you so much. Reporter youre welcome. Deirdre Catherine Herridge from d. C. Hillary clintons email scandal biggest challenge to her campaign. On gop side it is all about the delegate map. Were on brink of a fiveprimary contest that could end or extend the republican primary race. Super tuesday, march 15th, florida, ohio, winnertakeall are the two biggest prizes. With me from the National Review, rich lowery. Great to see you. Thanks for having me. Deirdre the National Review endorsed senator cruz. Why is the best candidate . He is principled conservative. He lives and breathes the constitution and also extremely talented and extremely disciplined. You never have to worry about ted cruz not knowing the answer to a question or being illprepared. Finally on practical political level this is the only of the nontrump candidates who actually has a chance to stop him. Deirdre those are all fair points. I want to come back to them in a minute. I want to ask you something you didnt mention well show footage here from a rally, donald trump rally. There has been a lot of violence. You will see this guy in the white shirt get punched basically in the face. There is a lost animosity. The crowds whipped up. There are people saying that donald trump is responsible for it. Saying youre not allowed to punch people anymore. If you see somebody about to throw a tomato, take that person down. Is part of why you are supporting senator cruz the idea that you there is just a calmer, kind of water around him . We think donald trump is unsuitable in a lot of ways. As general matter im not one to say, political rhetoric causes violence. I also dont like people going to any event heckling a speaker. That is just wrong. But as you point out trump specifically encouraged people whit violence against protesters. There is part of plurality that doesnt care, but when he gets to be the nominee that will be hard deirdre it is provoked. People are going to the rallies specifically to cause trouble. Correct. Deirdre im assuming every candidate faces that and every Candidates Team is given a different level of instruction, is that right . Right. What you gently want to do is find some way to shame the heckler or make the heckler book bad and urge your supporters to be better than the heckler and rise above it. Trump does the opposite. Like get down on this guys level. Knock him out. Punch him. Throw him out. Deirdre that is why people love him because they feel like he understands what theyre thinking and he therefore almost more represents what they want. I want to ask you from the point of view of political point of view at National Review, did you endorse cruz after dr. Ben carson went for trump . Or are the two decisions separate . Completely separate. This is something weve been thinking about a long time. Deirdre timing is coincidence . Right. There were a lot of good conservatives in the race to start out. Now it comes down to a choice between ted cruz effectively and donald trump. We think ted cruz is much better. Deirdre he didnt seek the endorsement from the National Review. Welcomed it. He wasnt lobbying us every day. Deirdre good to know journalist to journalist. Rich lowery, thank you so much. National review. Thank you. Deirdre trump rally scheduled for of the ever illinois in chicago. Thousands of students gathering. A lot expected to protest. Well keep an eye on it. Bring you any developments. Also last night donald trump doubled down on the recent comments about islam and some american Muslim Leaders are demanding an apology. I think islam hates us. There is something, there is something there that is tremendous hatred there. There is tremendous hatred. We have to get to the bottom of it. There is unbelievable hatred of us. In islam itself . Youre going to have to figure that out. We have to be very vigilant. We have to be very careful. We cant allow people coming into this country who have this hatred of the United States. I guess the question is and of people that are not muslim. This just got interesting. Why pause to take a pill . Or stop to find a bathroom . Cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas for pulmonary hypertension, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. Do not drink alcohol in excess. Side effects may include headache, upset stomach, delayed backache or muscle ache. To avoid longterm injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. If you have any sudden decrease or loss in hearing or vision, or any symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. Ask your doctor about cialis and a 200 savings card then your eyes may see it, differently. Ave allergies. Stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. Only flonase is approved to relieve both your itchy, watery eyes and congestion. No other nasal allergy spray can say that. Complete allergy relief or incomplete. Let your eyes decide. Flonase changes everything. Deirdre former president ial candidate dr. Carson throws his support behind republican frontrunner donald trump. Former Deputy Assistant secretary of defense under president reagan, kt mcfarland is with me now. Dr. Carson famously said there are two trumps. Made me think of jekyl and hyde. Is unpredictability an advantage of working with foreign leaders . When i was working with president nixon, nixon would say i want them to worry about me and if they think im a little crazy and it would give me some advantage. That was the take on nixon. You never knew what he was going to do. He turned out to be pretty good negotiator. I know a lot of people done business with donald trump and been on his side of the table and on other side of the table. Everyone agrees he is one of the toughest negotiators there ever was in business the maybe this dr. Jekyl, mr. Hyde might work for him as president . Deirdre seems if he is the closest one to getting that magic number, 1237 as we have been discussing. Last night though, last debate before this tuesday winnertakeall states, donald trump reiterated these controversial comments on islam. The debate moderators pushed him. Well replay a quick clip. Then i have a question for you, kt. Okay. Last night you told cnn, quote, islam hates us. Did you meet all 1. 6 bill
