Business news and analysis. Primary asking somebody if you are going to work out tomorrow. The answer is of course i am until you wake up in the morning and realize you have a million other things to do. Only ones to go out and vote very energized. Those very energized are very angry or very excited. I think going into this, is there a chance that the democrats win, looking at the polls, yes. Is it likely . No. Does this mean that this is going to be a reflection of whats going to happen in the midterm . Absolutely not. Thats because anything can happen between now and the midterm. And we have seen it week by week, day by day. The way people feel about a candidate completely changing and each one of these candidates, each one of these districts is different. You cant look at pennsylvania and alabama and say thats whats going to happen here. Now because thats what happened there. Trish what is the Biggest Issue in ohio right now is the economy. Its absolutely the economy. Trump is winning on the economy. That is one area where he across the board gets support. And by the way, a lot of Americans Still support his trade policy, despite the fact that there is a lot of controversy around it two thirds of americans think that he is fighting for the american people. Thats also something that is really important to the
people in ohio. Trish if republicans win this one in a landslide and if that were to happen, what would that tell you again about polling data and the sort of shame, if you would, that some republicans feel about their president . Well, what it would tell me about polling data is that you have to do polls in a lot of different ways. You cant just look at the numbers. You have to look what sunday neath the numbers. Why people are blafing that way. You would ask how are you feeling about the economy right now. Yeah. You have to ask people a lot of different questions. I want to have quantitative conversations where you get the feel. There is such a difference in being a room with a trump supporter than asking apology question. You get that enthusiasm and that energy. You just dont get when you were in 2016 when you talked to hillary supporters vs. Trump supporters the difference in the volume and their energy when you were in person was to different. Knew there was Something Special that was happening. You dont necessarily get that when you look at survey when its neck and neck. Could you see a red wave. I dont necessarily see a red wave. That would be a shocking thing. I dont think its going to be a pure blue wave like
standpoint, most people would have taken that meeting. Its called Opposition Research or Even Research into your opponent. In the case of don, he listened, i guess they talked about, as i see it they talked about adoption and some things. Adoption wasnt even a part of the campaign. But, Nothing Happened from the meeting. Now the only difference since that Press Conference is the report that Michael Cohen says that the president knew about that meeting in advance he insists he did not know it was scheduled as he said in the tweet. The other big question about the president sit for an interview with robert mueller, the special counsel, last week mueller declined the president s Attorney Proposal to ask only about russia, the election, and possible collusion saying he also wants to ask questions that go to the issue of obstruction of justice. Will there be a sitdown interview . Listen to jay sekulow, one of the president s attorneys. We are moving as expeditiously as possible to
president knew. Thats investo verbotent. Trish thats not illegal. Im allowed to sit down and talk to anyone i want regardless of where they are from. You are making a great point okay, even when you get past my legal niceties it doesnt necessarily matter because the meeting in trump tower has been grossly overblown in terms of any kind of criminal law context. Okay . Okay. And, again, the president says i didnt know about it right in the tweet at the end. The point is if he tweets on august 5th, quote, it was about an offer of information, that tells you nothing in a legal setting as to when he even found that out, seriously. Is it the president in this case thats in trouble or perhaps don jr. Thats in trouble . I dont think either one of them is in trouble based on what we have in front of us now because don jr. Testified as i understand it that he did not recall one way or the other whether he had discussioned the meeting
with his father. The father has denied knowing about the meeting. Michael cohen says something to the contrary. As all the pundits and exprotesters have said. As i recall, don jr. Was making the point this was a meeting that was strictly about russian adoption and nothing else . Well, what happened and you are right, trish, if you look at the shift tweet, i i have Serious Problems with that offer was made of information and it was delivered. Wrong, no it wasnt. Okay. What happened was, in my opinion, breaking this down, Sherlock Holmes style. Okay, this was dangle as though it might be some Opposition Research, negative information. And then when the meeting actually took place, it had nothing to do with that okay . Okay. So, if you are a judge looking at all of this right now you are back at square one just saying okay, somebody had a meeting. Nothing actually came out of that meeting, that made any material difference in terms of, you know, basically the trump campaign, i hate to
use the word colluding because it doesnt mean much. But conspiring as judge nap tell us. Conspiring. Basically take this, steal this from Hillary Clinton. All of the experts have broken it down into two separate discussions. One how collusion is not in and of itself a criminal offense. Thats correct. The other part is well, if there are other aspect to this involving exchange of money, things like that. And there has been zero evidence of any of that, then its a different discussion. Trish one thing i want to point out before you go, exchange of money. Do not forget it was hillarys team that managed to secure the dossier which was actually paid for, remember, by fusion gps, via a law firm, actually paid for to dig up dirt on donald trump. Its remarkable breathe taking double standard. Professor dershowitz says use the shoe on the other
foot. Trish thank you so much. After offering to meet with iranian leaders. Somehow this all going to play out.

That your business is our business the United States postal service. Priority you
it can. This is a very complex issue. Its the right thing to do. And look, im not against a deal with iran. But the previous deal from 2015 was not in our favor. And one of the primary reasons people always want to say look, they were complying with it why didnt you get out of it complying with it only complied with the part that they agreed to. And they did not agree to any inspections of Military Facilities in iran. So, we have inspection of the sites agreed to. But, you know, its like telling a Serial Killer you cant go look in the basement. Trish i get it part of the problem too in that case they were economically in a much better position. And if you are economically better off, then maybe can you still work on all those things you are not supposed to be working on. Primarily regional adventure us. The idea of being here in part is that if we can limit the money going into their government covers. People watching right now. They will be required to spend more of their available money domestically in an attempt to shore up the economy and also to tamp down the protest rather than spend money on ventures that theyre engaged in currently to create instability and create influence in the middle east. Trish isnt part of this to make sure we enforce all these sanctions . I was looking at some of their Economic Data and, you know, they need the oil business. That is basically 20 of their overall economy. So, that is quite relevant to them. China, the eu. These are big importers of iranian oil. So if we say okay, china, guess what, we are not going to do business with you guys if you keep doing business with them, then that would have an impact. But, unless we are willing to go through with that and really stick to the sanctions, i dont know if its going to have the intended effect. Right. And thats a very good point. Look, you can see from the push back from the eu, i
mean, make no mistake, their protests about us pulling out of the deal were primarily economically based. Right . They have been very keen, commercially reengage with iran. Thats what they are complaining about in a sense. But, china is thought going to play ball, necessarily, with us on this. So we can do what we can do and thats important, right . Because we will have an impact on it. Trish cant we make sure that the eu is doing what i mean, if we say you cant do business with the iranians, and france is still doing business with the iranians, then why would we allow our American Companies to do business with france . Right, well, and you can see this downward spiral that this could create. Some where down there towards the bottom, its not beneficial to anybody globally. But, i mean, youre right in the sense that we do need to pressure the eu to the degree that we can and they are doing that they are saying look, have you got to pick a side here. Nobody in the eu disagrees that the iranians are engaged in global terrorism
and sponsorship of global terrorism. Nobody disagrees that theyre engaged in creating instability in the region for their own particular interests. But if france looks at this as an example and says right now its still in our best interest to engage in iran rather than to disengage and follow the u. S. Lead, thats what they are going to do. Trish what im saying though, i think we are more important to france than the iranians. You would think. So if we wanted to fully exert our economic power, we could. I guess is a question of how far were willing to take it and how much were willing to enforce these sanctions. It is the right move at this time and we can do multitasking. We can do this and at the same time try to engage and get a better deal. Mike, good to see you, mike baker, thank you.

[shouting] trish Conservative Charlie Kirk getting doused with water as he tried to have breakfast today with fellow conservative Candace Owens in the city of brotherly love. That would be philadelphia. Targeted by far left demonstrators. You see the tape here. It all followed Death Threats against several g. O. P. Lawmakers in recent days including House Majority whip steve scalise. Democratic leaders need to step up here and stamp out some of these threats . Seems like it is the logical thing to do right now and humane. Fox news contributor Deneen Borelli democratic strategist cathy areu and daily caller vince, good to to see you all. Why is no one from your party actually saying hey, enough, its gotten out of hand, knock it off . Yeah, well, the president should say it. The president should say enough. So, not just the democrats. The president should be saying enough is enough. Instead, is he tweeting against Maxine Waters. So it just seems that this irresponsible unpredictable behavior is coming from the top. We need to stop being such a divisive nation. We need to stop being democrats vs. Republic cans and stop this magnet already. Maxine waters, so when you say its coming from the top. I would actually point a lot is coming directly out of the mouth of Maxine Waters. Can a deneen you will recall recently she was encouraging
people to get out there and harass, et cetera. Thats exactly what they are doing. As you see on that tape. Wouldnt it be prudent and helpful and good for the country if Maxine Waters and some of these others trying to instigate this actually said enough . No. You are absolutely right, trish, and these images and what we are seeing are very disturbing and very concerning yes, Maxine Waters made the call for people to harass and intimidate trump officials, trump supporters, even people who are wearing trump gear Walking Around are being attacked. They were attacked over this weekend. I havent heard that much News Coverage about that as well. And so, democrats do need to step up and condemn what is going on in the streets with the liberal mob that they have created. Have you people like Maxine Waters who is inciting these people and im afraid things will escalate if this continues. Trish you look at what Sarah Huckabee sanders has had to go through and what Kirstjen Nielsen has had to go through. We have had doj employees
that have had dead Animal Carcasses deposited at their door steps. Vince, at some point we as a country need to collectively come together and both sides need to say okay, we ought to be able to appreciate each others intellectual differences. While you may not agree with the other side. You certainly arent going to try to intimidate, harass and destroy physically the other side. Yeah, instead what you get is two people who have been arguing for Smaller Government are confronted by a grouch annoying little fascist. They should have permits for people who have whistles and bull horns to yell in your face. Its scary by the way, vince. Can you imagine being them, being candace or being charlie and getting hit with that when you walk out of breakfast. Indicative of the dire state of west wing politics which is to say they have given up on debating. This is not about a debate not about the political culture in america thats made the country great. Its about stopping debate. These people couldnt beat
candace in a debate here either of them or charlie for that matter. Trish they are not even trying. Cathy, again, you know, and cathy, you may not agree with deneen, i was just by the way in the green room with you guys and you were having a great time. In other words, there is a certain healthy amount of respect that i think at least we here on this network have for each other. Why is that not getting carried out into the Streets Of Philadelphia and elsewhere . Thats what so sad it seems like we have two extremes they are attacking each other and making america look horrible. I dont think that is america. Think we are america. The four of us here we get along but at the end of the day, we do smile and appreciate each others views even though we may not agree with each other. I wish that more of america would see us. I think your party needs to get out in front of this one for sure. Let me turn to another story that i want to ask you guys about. At Net Roots Nation over the
weekend you had new york gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon definitely not shying away from the whole socialist platform and label. Listen to her here, guys. If being a Democratic Socialist means that believing that healthcare and education should be a human rights then i am a Democratic Socialist. The establishment is terrified of that word, socialism. But if we learned one thing from the obama years its that republicans are going to call us socialists no matter what we do. [cheers] so we might as well give them the real thing. [cheers] trish deneen, how bad is this for her party out there talking about socialism in such a way thats so embracing of it most democrats when push comes to shove. Most americans are never going to go for i will take your money to give it to someone else on such massive scale. Your thoughts . The Democrat Party is very divided right now. Have you those on the left and those who are super left promoting socialism. So they not only have a
