Globalism. Remember America First, America First. Trish all right, sounds a bit like his message in arizona as he laid out his immigration plan. We need a system that serves our needs, not the needs of others. Remember, under a trump administration, its called America First. Trish all right, will the America First message bring in skeptical republicans and independents, though . Were going to debate it as our brand new fox news poll shows this race is indeed tightening bigtime. Take a look at this. This is the fourway. Clinton and trump in this one with stein and johnson are in a virtual tie, if they can win over the johnson and stein reporters, can he have the race in the bag . The liberal media pouncing on trumps immigration speech saying he punked the American Public. For days the media backed him for softening immigration stance and now backing him for not softening his immigration stance. Howie kurtz is going to weigh in on that. Dr. Sebastian gorka here on a bombshell report that claims u. S. Gave iran a pass in secret allowing iranians to keep nuclear material. To our top story, donald trump delivering a powerful policy speech on immigration last night where he doubled down on that wall and keeping out all Illegal Immigrants. Listen to him here. We will build a great wall along the southern border. We are going to end catch and release. Zero tolerance for criminal aliens. Zero zero we are going to suspend the issuance of visas to anyplace where adequate screening cannot occur. There will be no amnesty. You cannot obtain legal status or become a citizen of the United States by illegally entering our country. Cant do it. Trish is his message going resonate with skeptical republicans and independent voters . Does it need to . Joining me Julie Roginsky and ford oconnell. Ford, he was playing to his base last night, really getting them excited. How do you think the speech went over with republicans who may have been doubting him along the way . I definitely think this is a base play because as you pointed at the fox news poll, you inserted the four candidates, his supporters were far more enthusiastic about donald trump than Hillary Clinton supporters are with Hillary Clinton. Im going to put the interest of 300 million citizens first rather than millions of hispanic citizens. He shouldnt have played to a raucous crowd, he should have delivered this in a more president ial way in the way he met with enrique pena nieto. Thats what the democrat are pouncing on is the red meat. I dont know whats controversial about deporting criminal aliens, i dont know whats controversial about ending sanctuary cities. Dont know whats controversial about the border. Those are questions Hillary Clinton has to answer. Trish thats what is fair, we have the borders theoretically for a reason, its illegal or legal. And shouldnt be a lot of gray room in there, but its become such that it is very gray is somehow politically indroekt now use t incorrect to use the term illegal immigrant. I think Hillary Clinton uses the term undocumented immigrant. If hes playing to the base, is that enough right now . I spoke with David Rubenstein on wall street week, its going to air tomorrow, the founder that noted private equity groupt carlyle group. He said for trump to succeed he needs his base riled up, fired up and thats the only path for him. Can be a base election for anybody. What shes doing is different from what trump is doing, shes reaching out to disaffected republicans and independents who would never take a look at her ever because her numbers are so bad. Trish do you think they ever will . The polling shows they have. When you have white collared educated woman to support her in ways they havent supported a democrat in a long time. The problem for trump, is i dont understand the need for the whole exercise yesterday. He had a supposedly very successful sitdown. Trish as opposed to . Coming back and delivering a speech, i found no new ground being broken, essentially speaking to the same people hes been appealing to when he came down the golden escalator in trump tower a year ago. Trish he could have ridden the high, the accolades from the trip to mexico, he could have muddied the waters in some ways, if you liked what you heard, maybe it was selfassuring, assuring to people in his base, because he went down to mexico and seemed to make nice with the mexican president , he would push hard for a real emphasis on these borders. Which way do you come out . His base needed to hear what he had to say, there was a hot of scuttlebutt about him softening, hes not softening. I do agree he needs more ways to soften the base but the affluent voter who cares about National Security and safety. If he can make the case his border plan is humane and putting americans first. Remember, lot of people dont care about laws if they dont feel safe and secure in their home. He has to use the base, keep them riled up but secures that affluent suburban voter. Trish what you said earlier as well, maybe he shouldnt have been playing to the crowd so much. Almost as though he gets excited by them, and then maybe the speech that would have been an hour turns into an hour and 20 minutes. And there are a lot of adlib moments which, a lot of people appreciate, and helps to make him him. But the media jumps all over it and it gets mischaracterized as you were saying, ford, when it comes to policy, you say forget the crowd . Always say forget the crowd because of his extrovert personality. He likes to be ramped up. When it comes to policy, words matter, the media is going to twist it every which way to sunday. If they hadnt remembered what he said, they would have called him a flipflopper. He was darned if he did and darned if he didnt. Trish got to leave this t there. Donald trump taking his message to the battleground state of ohio today. Sticking to his theme of putting American Values first. During his speech to veterans at the American Legion. Lets listen. We will stop apologizing for america and we will start celebrating america. Well be united by our common culture, values and principles, becoming one american nation. One country, under one constitution, saluting one american flag. Trish you know, Hillary Clinton was on the exact same stage yesterday. But guess what . Her message entirely different. She took her entire time at the podium to do nothing but bash trump. It certainly takes more than trying to mang for a year of insults and insinuation by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours and flying home again. My opponent in this race said very clearly that he thinks american exceptionalism is insulting to the rest of the world. Trish all right, for more on all of this, joined by trump Foreign Policy adviser, rear admiral charles cubic. Good to have you here. You know, what do you think . When shes out there bashing him over and over and over again, do you as a policy adviser say wait a second, arent we supposed to be talking about the policies that each of the candidates would put into place, that would result in some kind of change for our country right now . Good afternoon, trish, and youre absolutely right. I think america in that little clip that you showed can see the stark difference between a donald trump as commander in chief versus a Hillary Clinton. He was there talking about policy and talking about it with a passion, all she can do is talk about donald trump. Trish why is that . I think she doesnt have anything else good to talk about, and she certainly isnt willing to take question on her policy or on her behavior on her performance, but donald trump is trying to break away from that. Hes looking at a message of unity, of american exceptionalism. In fact, i think one of his strongest points was when he cited the military as a noble example of how to work in a diverse workforce, achieve unity, focus on the mission and do amazing things. And i think that was his message as well as letting the military know as their commander in chief, hell always have their back. Trish one of the things i found surprising throughout all of this is how easy people seem to think it is to poke holes in donald trump in terms of what they call his lack of policy. And ive actually said from the beginning. As an economics reporter, i was thrilled when he came forward with a tax plan because no one else is doing that, and i looked today and hes got a tax plan, a plan to get the economy growing again. Yet he has not told us what her Corporate Tax rate would be or the eight brackets, what those would be. From a military strategy, which is something i know you are an expert, in she also hasnt really told us other than were going to have the coalitions and Work Together, it seems to me in this election more than any other in recent history, americans are craving more information, more policy. How is this going to affect the two candidates, do you think, when it comes to debates . Well, its clear, shes sitting on the bench hoping the time runs out, while hes on the field playing an active game. And you talked about his policy speeches. Theyre on his website. In fact, in the last 24 hours, hes hit a grand slam of policy. He showed himself to be very president ial in meeting with the president of mexico and focusing on those areas which they agreed upon and holding off to a later date those areas that i have to discuss, came and changed his bearing and demeanor to talk to a political crowd but with a very solid policy message. This morning he was with the American Legion basically showing his respect, his honor, his appreciation for the military, and then flipped over to a to a group of business people, of workers and talked about the need for jobs, the problems we have with restoring manufacturing in the u. S. So in 24 hours, hes done nothing but show policy, not just with words but policy with his actions. Trish admiral, very quickly before i let you go, what are you telling him when it comes to isis . Im telling him we can no longer drone our way out of it. We have to have a much more complex strategy which looks at not only violent kinetic action but nonviolent means, information warfare, cyber warfare, economic and political actions across the wide spectrum. Were looking not just to defeat a military foe but an ideology. Trish thank you, admiral, kubic, good have you here. The liberal media pouncing on trumps immigration speech saying he punked the American Public. The American Media saying he softened his immigration stance and didnt soften it enough. Your favorite media critic howie kurtz is going to explain next. [alarm beeping] the highly advanced audi a4. We will break the cycle of amnesty and illegal immigration. We will break the cycle. [cheers and applause] there will be no amnesty. [cheers and applause]. Trish donald trump doubling down on his immigration plan in a powerful speech. Now despite the strong performance, the media this morning on the attack. This is the title of an opinion piece from the new york times, the duplicity of donald trump, the paper accuse him of political gymnastics, these are some of the words used in the washington post. Xenophobic, circus, trite. Weve been trumped for days, the republican nominee bashed for possible softening of immigration stance and now bashed for not softening enough. Howie kurtz from media buzz is here with more. If you are donald trump, youre damned if you do, damned if you dont when it comes to the media . You dont have to go to the opinion pieces. Politico called trumps day a farce. Most of the press really liked trumps visit to mexico, his meeting with the president. I was sitting on the fnc set with Charles Krauthammer and steve hays and said it was his best campaign and he looked good on the world stage, most hated the speech in arizona feeling it was too harsh, too hot, and didnt expand his base beyond those who love him and hid the fact, or trump hid the fact that trump would delay for several years any decision what to do with most of the 11 million Illegal Immigrants in this country. Trish interesting, i was talking with rich lowry last night from National Review and fox contributor, and he has been no fan of Donald Trumps throughout this, but he liked what he heard, he liked the policy very much. He is very much in favor, rich, that is, of stronger borders and not encouraging this kind of illegal immigration. He said part of the problem, however, may have been that trump spoke before a large audience there, and the crowd gets him excited and so the delivery is not the muted delivery, say, that you saw alongside the president of mexico, but rather the more flamboyant, excited donald trump that gets the crowd excited, and did that cause members of the media to dismiss him in a way they shouldnt. If you look at the words and the policy itself, theres something there. Well, i think that may have been part of it. Trump said maybe they should deport hillary, too. He got riled up in front of the crowd. At the same time, having covered this issue for years, trish, there is a Mainstream Media mindset that common sense Immigration Reform is a good thing, and being too harsh and cracking down and talking about a 10foot wall and all of that is not a good thing. This goes back to the bush administration, the gang of eight during the Obama Administration, when trump appeared to be more conciliatory in meeting with the president of mexico, that was cheered by the media. When he gave what seemed like a red meat speech. Its fair to say he was presenting two different sides of himself, part of the motivation for slamming that speech was a lot of the journalists dont like the policy. Trish why do it just like that . I wondered if he couldnt have ridden that wave coming out of mexico for a couple more days before he came forward with the speech straight to the base. As a matter of pure politics, it would have been better if he held a press conference in mexico, come back over the next 48 hours, trump the statesman, trump took a gamble, it paid off. Trump looked good on the world stage. The speech coming so soon after, stepped on, it was a foray. Trumps going down there . You dont do this . I think if there had been separation, it might have been better, politically speaking for donald trump. Trish it was incredible he did go down there. I was saying all along, it felt like quite a risk but a risk that paid off, maybe didnt pay off as much in terms of the Media Attention he could have gotten had he waited longer on the speech. Anyway, thank you so much, howie. Do not forget to watch howie on the Fox News Channel every sunday. Our brand new fox news poll shows this race is tightening. You got clinton and trump in a virtual tie. What happened to all the pundits who said this thing was over .

Trish all right, the socalled political experts were saying the race is over. They said no way donald trump is possibly ever catch up. Guess what . They were wrong as we predicted because here you go, folks, he has. According to the latest fox news poll he is virtually tied with Hillary Clinton in a fourway national race. A big difference from when she held a 10point lead earlier this month. So why the change . Was it Trumps Campaign shakeup that really shook things up, or could thirdparty candidates be gaining in popularity and hurting her . Joining me with explanations radio host liberal alan colmes and conservative joe walsh. How do you explain this turnaround . I think its hillary, trish, look, shes the poster child for elite, corrupt, outoftouch politician. I may be off by a day or two. She gave a speech in ohio yesterday. She hadnt campaigned in 7 to 8 days. The woman didnt want to kiss babies or shake hands. She wants to run out of the clock. I got to tell you something, trish, there is something to trump. Trump is hustling, trump is actually acting like he wants to be president. Hes out there campaigning. Hillary clinton is hiding in her mansion and she wont campaign, trish. Trish she hasnt given a News Conference in 271 days now . She doesnt like us media folks. No one cares about how many News Conferences shes given in the media. Trish but the American Public wants to hear from her. If shes got questions that need to be answered and shes avoiding the questions like the plague. Strategically you have a Trump Campaign imploding, and the poll you are mentioning is one poll, the suffolk poll has Hillary Clinton with a seven point lead, the real clear politics poll fivepoint lead. What matters are the swing states, the polls in the states like michigan, ohio, florida. Florida is a little close right now. He is not leading in
