We have White House Reporter from the Associated Press jonathan lemire, stormer chief of staff for Hillary Clintons president ial president ial campaign, adrienne elrod, an msnbc contributor and Michael Steele is with us. Good to have you all. Lets jump into the news. The stock market is bracing for another bump y ride as u. S. And chinese negotiators appear far apart on President Trumps trade war. Over the weekend the president tweeted saying we are right where we want to be with china. 200 billion in tariffs are taxes on working class and middleclass americans. Maybe they dont care but thats a lot of money. This is where we need journalists. The president has been lying nonstop saying china would pay for tariffs, just look mexico would pay for the wall. We found out the president is lying, mexico is not paying for the wall and the American People need to know that this is a tax increase on them. Take a listen. Our country can take in 120 billion a year in tariffs, paid for mostly by china, not by us. A lot of people try to say its paid for by us. But, lalarry, that isnt tru. It not china that pay tariffs, its the American Companies that pay a tax increase and often passes it on to u. S. Consumers. Fair enough. Both sides will pay in these things. If its a tariff on goods coming into the country, the chinese arent paying. No, but the chinese will suffer gdp losses and so forth with respect to a diminishing export market and goods that they may need for their own i understand that. But the president says china pays the tariffs. They may suffer consequences but its u. S. Businesses and u. S. Consumes ars who pay, correct . To some extent. I dont disagree with that. Both sides will suffer on this. Thats incredible. And Goldman Sachs says the tariffs have fallen entirely on u. S. Businesses and households. And he actually told the truth and that is that every time that donald trump raises tariffs, that is paid for by working class americans when they go to the grocery store, working class and middleclass americans when they go to walmart, when they go to target, whenever they go out and shop, American Farmers getting hammered by this, Small Business owns are getting hammered by this. Employers all across america hammered and there you even have a republican congressman saying that the president is lying. These are trump taxes. Now hes just said hes raised taxes on American Consumers 200 billion. Yeah, joe. In a is certainly all correct. The fact is nobody wents from a tariff war. We are going to suffer from this tariff war. I have some charts that i might show you later. Its not even just the taxes which get paid, which are now raised to 25 , but it creates pricing umbrella for other businesses to raise their prices and charge us more. You end up with jobs lost and donald trump is creating a textbook case for economists who for a hundred years have explained how it helps both sides of trade and the economy and hes showing how tur tailing trade hurts the economy. The stock market is drumms favorite barometer and even it doesnt seem to think that what donald trump is doing makes any economic sense. Siim so amused when people come up to me and say you use to be a republican and well, im still these people have adopted overnight actually extraordinarily liberal views on massive federal spending, shutting down borders, closed borders, which used to be that union bosses wanted borders closed. Driveup wages. So all of this stuff, michael, that you and i and republicans and conservatives believed in our entire life, balanced budget, free trade, Ronald Reagans belief of a nation of immigrants. Donald trump has completely trashed that and these mindless sycophants, not just in congress but some people come up to me and are like why arent you a republican anymore . Theyve all had brain transplants and theyre thinking like liberals. Its crazy it is crazy. The bottom line, joe, and you put your finger on the pull of it, is these those are rationalizing their own shift toward donald trump. They have to somehow justify where they stand now. They look at you, me, many of us and they go, well, you changed. No, im still a free trader. I believe in free markets. I still believe in the power of an open society that embraces immigration as republicans once did. That believed in assimilation and lower taxes and cutting debt and deficits. They have to rationalize that, my friend. Everybody in this sycophantic world of tramp as they also have to rationalize the race imof they have to rationalize racism left and right, rashally ince e incensiincens insensitive remarks. You hardly ever hear them that complain about tir i was. So it with neonazis and the rest of us. And at last within or two will remember what it was look when they were conservatives like me. About . I think the war is still going on. Ibeing conservative man being conservative. They doesnt. But tell me, is there a growing sort of resentment of donald trump when it comes to tear i was . Are we going at some point when shes conservatives finally remember who they are . I do admire your fighting spirit on that island, joe. I would far rather be the only conserve tiff on this. There are certainly very few moments where the president is willing to cross the president. Sometime onand think it would be unroolistic to expect a fullon roo volt this. Polling 80, 90 among rabs. There will be some messages widespread effort to try to change the presss mind. We have to see who in this got he thinks he can get away and so on, thaft needs to be addressed. But this is going nrm fellow rabs, but republicans who are highing relax in 020. If the chinese ro pr who voted for the president and are needed given in 2020. If the pot tiks chang, might so pant in really, egot it wrong on the bored are obviously the lyft has prin. Well, liberal immigration policies nan nm when it comes to imgrgs in johnson, rag rag sflsh everybody rab, every conservative i know in washington, and a half. In they turned relief on reconsistent, spending. We blame it will sgsso take the record debt, theyll take the record Big Government republicanism, not a conservative left out there. But if there is, i man, hi, how are you doing . Well see you in a couple of years. But i dont see it. I used to think that there were but things that im reading now online, theyre all lining up blindly behind. And there, theyre defending perjury, massive deficits, theyre depending protectionism. Good luck. I dont know why donald trump is worth this to him or why its prt to pao. There as right, this as the lyft and then this as this evening fch in the next lbs. And, by the way and as i mean it, yeah. Sfp or whoever wents the democrat being nomination, all the more you nrm democratic votes are has joe biden at 46 . S that up tn points from their poll be in at 15 and then senator kwp budget judge kur, brock with andrewian at 2. In so adrienne this he is torically that are incredibly important states. I i. The real pratt being. Far more divrs than the 1 hoose pcht sfrchl sfrrm i mean, this poll is huge for joe biden. Youve got a field 18 candidates. I dont know if the entire pool candidate was pooled for thissing issing inwhat was technically surprising to me also about this kol is where cory booker is. This is a stay that core oo become ooze. The fact in a its proling around 4 or 5, is a big surprise to me. Sork is jo ffrp but those polls do ma m steve rat are in noosh recall. And it max this many fool special. And a morse but it makes them fool smart. On happen. And one guy sitting at 46 bunds, your friends people who have been sitting onsfp mean i can support joe biden i dont know. Mabb will pb hewill have good sfwrsht for bundlers and that hp fund racecam pans . Clearly biden is, cuting a strategy that get out of the go sfrfrm and thereby dau in all the people on the sidelines. You may have seen in the Washington Post how many people are on the sidelines, watching and waiting. I would say it has not yet quite happened in my world. There are moyers in todo double. I dont know that many who have the bum play book of looking for a fresh new face, nor generation. Then the largest percentage of them are still watch to see frankly if the biden phenomenon is real because it is still early. It is meaningful poll. Biden as got will the to prove whe whp who kind of came um with a name for him, oh, it was owe good we is Elizabeth Warren to the news as well.
