Coronavirus crisis i spoke exclusively with President Trump this week about his second term agenda heading into that convention that interview straight ahead and well also talk to the man who helped lead the Trump Campaign to victory in 2016 steve bannon is here with his election predictions ahead of Convention Season in the middle of it all breaking news in john durhams criminal probe with exfbi attorney Kevin Klinesmith expected to plead guilty to falsifying a document in the russia investigation and dni John Ratcliffe flagged his criminality back in december last year. What you have is fbi lawyers literally changing evidence to make false representations to the court to continue this counterintelligence investigation against the president , so it details everyone is entitled to a presumption of innocence, the democrats never want to give one to donald trump, but the inspector generals findings really outline what his criminal activity. Maria coming up wisconsin senator ron johnson is here to break down with breaking news on his investigation into obama era corruption, and the evidence he says should disqualify joe biden from being president. Plus, Steve Schrage is back with more about the 2016 conference he introduced carter page to Stefan Halper, subsequently is in the russia gate scandal. All that and a lot more right here right now on sunday morning futures. And our thoughts are with the president this morning and his family, following the passing of President Trumps younger brother, robert trump yesterday. He was 71 years old. President trump visited him in a new york City Hospital on friday , before traveling to bedm inster, new jersey for an event. His Senior Advisor and soninlaw Jared Kushner is there with him and he joins me now. Our condolences to you and family. I want to discuss this weeks historic peace deal between israel and the uae, but first how are you doing, how is the president doing . Thank you very much, maria. The president is doing well. I was with him last night and the family when he got the unfortunate news he loved his brother very much. Its obviously a very difficult time for him in that regard but again he loved his brother, he was happy, got a chance to see him and they had a great relationship and many good memories together so hopefully hell tin auto you to do great things and make his brother proud. Maria i want to talk about this historic peace deal between israel and the uae, which of course you were so critical in putting together. Tell me the most important parts of this deal, as you see it today. So this deal is really the culmination of three and a half years of incredible diplomacy by President Trump. President trump started his administration with his first foreign trip, where he addressed the 54 muslim nations and then went to israel when he met with the jewish leaders and went to rome where he met with the pope and other leaders, and so President Trump has set out a course to really change the middle east and to try to bring more peace to the world. This was a great culmination of it and theres a lot of steps along the way. We hosted a conference where we brought the middle east closer together. We hosted a conference in bahrain where we brought everyone together and the president s steps which were whitely criticized in the Foreign Policy world like moving the embassy to jerusalem was a very critical step. That showed people that number one President Trump unlike past politicians keeps his prom promises and thats strength and courage and conviction allowed him to build very strong relationships with our regional allies that had previously been forsaken and that confidence they had in him allowed him to take this historic step forward and also one of the other critical steps along the way was President Trump getting out of the disastrous iran deal. That deal sent 150 billion to the largest state sponsor of terrorism, one of the worst deals perhaps in history and President Trumps leadership is greatly constrained the reach of a big menace in the region. Maria yeah i think you make a lot of good points and all of these efforts for the last three and a half years have yielded true impact, and success. I feel like the idea of peace in the middle east has been going on decades, but there was a relationship in place between you and Benjamin Netanyahu and the president. Was that really the trigger that allowed the United Arab Emirate and its leadership in abu dhabi to say now is the time to actually listen and to try to come to the middle . I think netanyahu giving a settlement and a pause to the west bank is critical. Tell me how your personal relationship, the president s relationships really got this done. Right so relationships are one thing and obviously, you have to be able to have trust and know that you can have free willing discussions where you didnt come to the region to lecture people, we came to listen to people and then to understand what were their best interests and then find commonality. When President Trump moved the embassy to jerusalem a lot of people criticized and says well he didnt ask for anything in return and President Trumps point of view on that was that first of all, you dont have to get something for keeping your promise. You shouldnt be getting something for doing the right thing. You should just do the right thing but what he got out of that which very few Foreign Policy experts saw was he got the trust of the israeli people and the trust of israel. It showed he was doing things for the right reasons and that trust has enabled him to get israel to make some tougher decisions that they wouldnt have made otherwise, perhaps under a Different Administration , and obviously, with the United Arab Emirate, they felt very betrayed by america, with the past administration. The iran deal was a terrible betrayal of the region and American Leadership in the region had really pulled back. If you think about americas Foreign Policy in the middle east previously it was about energy, and under President Trumps leadership, americas now energyindependent as a country so thats greatly reduced our dependence on the middle east which is critical. Americans dont want to have too much war there. In the past administrations have lost, you know, trillions of dollars, and too many soldiers in the middle east and bringing people together and creating peace like President Trump was able to do here, greatly reduces our need to have troops in the region and then finally, a big threat to us and to the whole region is radical extrem ism and President Trump and his first trip to saudi arabia, the custodian of the two holy sites was able to create agreements amongst the arab world to do a counterterror finance center where now over the last three and a half years weve seen a significantly less amount of money going to terror organizations and then a counter Extremism Center where were fighting the long term online battle against extremism online. President trump also was able to destroy the territorial caliphate of isis and kill their leader and that also is creates a lot more stability in the region, so its really been through his actions that hes earned the trust not just of these two leaders but of everyone else in the region and people know that they may not always like every decision he takes, but hes going to do it from a position of strength and hes the first leader whose really moved peace a undercut rosenstein in the region and obviously this is a first Peace Agreement in the last 26 years so its an amazing breakthrough and accomplishment that only President Trump, the deal maker president could have done. Maria well you mentioned all of the strategies that the United States has had in the middle east for years and it has energy , youve got this military huge military footprint based on all of the wars that weve had and then of course the biggest threat is extremism. This sort of speaks to all of that but i want to ask you what this means Going Forward, because in an interview last week, you suggested that this is the beginning of something broader, so number one is was mb s, the head of saudi arabia consulted on this . Would the saudis be next in terms of recognizing israel and what else do you see happening as a result of this throughout the middle east . So part of the trust that weve built with all the leaders is that we dont disclose publicly a lot of the discussion s that happen privately. People are actually quite amazed that this deal didnt leak out, really the news broke with the president s tweet and thats a great thing. This really is a paradigm shift and what President Trump has tried to do for the last three years is that he recognized that a lot of the approaches taken in the middle east in the previous administrations just didnt work and werent serving americas interest. President trump is an american first president. He always is putting the interests of Americans First , and he tried to take an americafirst approach here and what he did was he tried to align the Different Countries in the region around their common interest as opposed to focusing on historic grievances, and again, over the last three and a half years, people were saying that President Trumps actions would lead to another world war, that they wouldnt be successful , and it was because he was doing policies that were based on common sense, not based on traditional diplomatic approaches and obviously, its an amazing fruit thats been born from those efforts but i will say that Going Forward this shows people that things are possible. I believe that many people had grown hopeless in the middle east, because theyve just seen years and years of failure and they didnt believe things could change, and so the problems became very fixed but one by one piece by piece President Trump slaughtered the sacred cows and used blunt force instruments but taken out a lot of the problems that existed and held the region back for years and if you look at the Younger Generation whether israeli or saudi they want to have better lives in order to do that they need to have a secure environment and be free of terror free of the radicalizers and have Economic Opportunities that they can feel like their children can have a better life than they have. Maria so does this , should we believe that this could be the beginning of an afront or a continuation of a front against iran at some point perhaps hezbollah becomes less important and not running things in that part of the world, and what about china, because you really have been critical to the president s Foreign Policy in a number of areas. You helped lead in terms of the biggest trade deal ever, mexico and canada. You were behind the deal with china, phase i, you did an opec deal. You also did criminal justice reform. Of course you also did leadership on the wall. Where are we on that and i know that china has a lot of business with the uae. The uae sells almost all of its oil to china. Are we going to get to a position where they have to choose, the u. S. Or china, given the fact that theres such tension between the two countries now. I know theres a lot there but give us your sense on the impact on iran and china, and then lets end off with the wall. Because i know our audience is interested in hearing where we are on that. Absolutely. So i would say that before President Trump came in, the direction was very clear. Most of the countries in the middle east were heading towards china, because america had totally given up its leadership role in the region and had betrayed all of its allies by doing the dangerous iran deal that gave them a glide path to a Nuclear Weapon and empowered them to cause more in stability throughout the region. This is a big sign that people in the region want to be with america long term. We just need to be consistent and strong leader in terms of bringing people together around common interests. The president s iran strategy has been very simple, which is that he thought the deal that was made previously was the worst deal, perhaps, in history. You had a deal that was signed where you sent them a couple billion dollars in cash, 150 billion total, gave them a glide path to a Nuclear Weapon and the day they signed it they werent saying thank you america they were in the streets saying, death to america, death to israel, and then trying to divide the middle east, so that was a big problem and President Trump has brought people back into the orbit. Hes been able to accomplish this historic breakthrough and i do think that for the last couple years perhaps ive beends believing that so many things could be possible, and that we could put all differences aside and focus on newshared opportunities and then with regards to the wall, thats moving incredibly fast. That was a project that President Trump promised during his last election. The border right now is more secure than ever before, which is critical in the age of coronavirus in terms of stopping illegal drugs, Human Trafficking , and illegal smuggl ing, and we have about 300 milee completed and we are on pace right now to surpass our goal of 450 miles by the end of the year , and the Border Patrol is thrilled. They are i believe going to be endorsing the president and they believe that every mile of wall makes their operations more efficient because its less manpower they have to spread out over fewer amount of crossing potential areas. Maria it makes a lot of sense i totally understand. Its great to have you this morning thanks very much, sir. Congratulations on a lot happening. Thank you, its great to be with you. Maria you too well see you soon, sir. Well be right back and talk with steve bannon ahead of Convention Season stay with us plus well hear from the president , back in a moment.
