people, what they have heard for the past two years is what we have seen on every kyron on television, these little lower thirds below me or every headline or every newspaper. it s called the russia investigation for a reason. when you take russia and russia collusion out of this, it completely loses its impact. what we are going to get now is the iewb rus uberous of the defeated. see pundits tomorrow talking about other things besides this and an apology you will never get one because egos in this business don t allow for it, ed. pete: egos don t allow for it. then do we ever get news or reporting or was this for two years a manufactured crisis thrust upon the american people? ed: i have heard that phrase before? manufactured crisis? where have i heard that phrase before? we always hear about pushing a narrative in this business, right? people in this business having an agenda. i push back on that a little bit. this is a valid investigation. clearly it should get
jobs that were lost. she talked about massive infrastructure improvements that were lost. the fact that when somebody like amazon comes to your area, that that attracts other tech giants. for people who don t even understand basic economics, they actually think all that money and tax incentives if the jobs were brought and all the other great things happened in that area, you know, he said there s a financial literacy epidemic in america. quick lesson: new york city wasn t handing cash to amazon. it was an incentive program based on job creation producing tax revenue. there isn t a $3 billion pile of money that can now be spent on subways or education.
suburbs of milwaukee, they re going to lose. there is this overreach and handing it to trump. i could write trump s entire campaign going forward and it an unbeatable proposition. you know, willie, what we were talking about last week, as offensive as the el paso speech was and you listen to the last five minutes and you thought he s got his closing argument for 2020 already, a lot of it is based by unforced errors by democrats, who don t listen to nancy pelosi. this lks like all elections is going to be determined in places like wisconsin, michigan, ohio, pennsylvania, virginia, north carolina and florida. a lot of those states went for barack obama a couple times and then went for donald trump.
and all the businesses that are built and the people that are hired and the dry cleaners and restaurants and everything that flows out of 25,000 jobs coming in. susan, you ve worked in new york city politics for a very long time. what s your view of this and did some of the progressives have a point in some of their protests about what amazon wanted out of this deal? no, because the protests that we saw were to get on the aoc s bandwagon. what s shocking to me is once again she shows how little she understands not just economics but even unemployment. she s the one who said the reason unemployment is so low is because a lot of people have two jobs. she needs to learn basic things about what it is to be a representative. when you look at what happens in new york city and new york state, we re losing people like crazy. we are going to lose our influence in washington during the next redistricting because we ll lose one to two congressional seats. now we re telling business don t come h
in the house and have to be voted on in the senate. and tied up for years. and as you said earlier, he ll claim that he s being stopped from defending you against these rapists and ms-13 members by the liberal courts and the dastardly democrats and this and that and that will be his big theme in the campaign. and john podhoretz, i m curious what your thoughts are about the trajectory of donald trump s political fortunes over the past couple weeks, two, three weeks ago i would have put his chances at getting re-elected at maybe 10%, maybe 15%. you don t get re-elected when you bounce between 35 and 40%, 41, 42%. you just don t. but i must say, you look at the sorry performance of some democrats on capitol hill, in virginia, you look at the
