blame on the democrats. one source with direct knowledge of the negotiations say there is no quick end to this. this will be the first time in more than 40 years that the government shuts down three times in one year. and there is more breaking news tonight to tell you about. sources telling cnn that president trump has lashed out at acting attorney general m matthew whitaker, because prosecutors implicated the president in the michael cohen investigation, and the supreme court up holds a ruling from president trump and new restrictions for asylum seekings. it was 5-4, with chief justice john roberts siding with the liberal judges. could he be the new swing vote. there s a lot to talk about. phil mattingly joins me from capitol hill with the latest on the midnight shut down. we re getting close, less than an hour, the government is going to shut down. where do we stand right now? there are negotiations and they exist, which given the current bar for success in governance was better than it was six hours ago. here s the reality and this is what s important to point out, those negotiations have not come anywhere through a breakthrough according to sources i m talking to and the reality on the ground here on capitol hill is, look, you can look behind me, there s nobody here. everybody has gone home for the night. they accept the fact there will be a shut down in an hour, and the way out of this is very unclear. the talks behind the scenes i m told tonight are still very far apart. white house officials that were up here, mike pence, jared kushner, incoming chief of staff mick mulvaney were trading ideas with democrats, all of which have been rejected. somewhere around 2.5, $2.6 billion in border security. democrats making clear that is nowhere near where they re willing to go. the reality remains as we enter into this shut down, there s tho deal in sight, and president trump s demand for the wall, the $5 billion for the wall, remains what s dictated reaching this point. it s where democrats are not willing to come anywhere else close to if they want to reach any type of agreement to end this. my goodness. i said in my open that they adjourned until noon tomorrow. do you know when the next vote could be in the senate? no, and i think that underscores the moment we are in now. what we were told from senators leaving, they were told they would get 24 hours notice before a vote was set to occur. even if a deal is struck over the course of the morning hours tomorrow, they re not going to be back to vote anytime soon. i think the bigger problem here i have heard from both republicans and democrats is they don t know how this ends. the political incentives are aligned to the point this is longer than shorter. democrats have no incentive to move. they feel like they have the winning hand. they have seen the president say this is his shut down, and they don t believe there s any reason to make a deal. from the white house perspective, they re in it now, the president promised this was the fight he wanted to have. the president promised this was the shut down he wanted to have. if they blink, he would be caving. you saw what happened when senate republicans tried to put a bipartisan deal on the floor, and the president ended up undercutting them later on, that doesn t have a great track record here. what people are saying on the republican, democratic side who are working on these negotiations is essentially, buckle up, this is going to take a while. we don t know when the next vote will be. we don t know if there s going to be any breakthrough on negotiations anytime soon. it is awfully quiet there. i only see phil mattingly and a couple statutes behind him. phil, thank you very much. i want to bring in susan glasser and david sanger, the author of the perfect weapon. they re awake, and here we go. susan, you have a new piece titled the year in trump fereak outs. when we look back on the 2018, it may not to recall all the crazy things that happened when donald trump was president. a year from now, it may appear as the quiet before the storm. susan, come on now. i m trying to give you nightmares, don. you think this is just the beginning of chaos? you know, i have thought that f for a long time. think about how many events are happening just this week alone. we hardly remember the whole extraordinary michael flynn nonsentencing. it seems like a year ago. i think, look, between the mueller investigation moving towards potential conclusion next year, the democratic takeover of the house of representatives, the level of trump spun up dysfunction and chaos, we re already seeing, i do strongly suspect that we ain t seen nothing yet and that in many ways, this will all feel like prologue to whatever conclusions to some of these events in particular, the investigations that we see in 2019, but of course, you know, just because something is inevitable or even predicted, we ve long known, for example, that things were headed towards some sort of a confrontation between jim mattis the defense secretary and president trump that still manages to be shocking and surprising in the way it played out, and i do think when you see the president backed into a corner, he has escalated his behavior already in a way that does make me quite anxious when i think about what kinds of dysfunction we might see playing out in 2019. you know what, david, susan brings up a good point. i think the cohen sentencing was the end of last week, right, and then there was some fallout the beginning of this week. and the flynn thing was the beginning of this week. she s right because even by the standards of the trump presidency, this week has been bonkers. and i sense that more and more people are getting fed up with it. do you agree with that? you didn t even mention, don, the market melt down that was going on in response to this, which is one of the ways i think that many americans feel it, the government shut down, of course, if it happens, as it now seems likely, if it dragged on, would be another one. you know, what struck me about this week is i agree with everything that susan said, and i think next year, you know, could well be crazier in crazytown, for sure. but i think that one of the great oddities of this week is that jim mattis in that remarkable resignation letter that he turned out managed to hit the major themes, the issues that he believes the president and the nation need to be focussed on. what s happened to our alliances, whether or not we re focussed on a rising china and an increasingly aggressive russia, whether or not we can martial the rest of the world as a force multiplier so we don t have to be the world s policemen. and what are we doing here? we are sitting, arguing about $5 billion for the wall. i m not suggesting for a minute that controlling immigration isn t important. it is. but if you go into even the trump administration s list that they give to congress each year of the major threats that face the united states, cyber, nuclear proliferation, china and russia, what they re doing, even trade issues related, intellectual property theft and so forth, you won t even find the threat coming over the wall to be anywhere near the top of the list. yeah. and yet we have somehow managed to consume ourselves with this instead of what mattis wants us to focus on. earlier today the president said the democrats are trying to belittle the concept of a wall, calling it old fashioned. the fact is there is nothing else that will work and that has been true for thousands of years. it s like the wheel. there is nothing better. i know tech better than anyone. and technology. where have we heard that before. and technology on a border is only effective in conjunction with a wall. i know tech better than anyone. and of course nobody knows more than trump, remember this? i think nobody knows more about campaign finance than i do. nobody knows more about construction than i do. i know more about isis than the generals do, believe me. nobody knows more about environmental impact statements than me. i am the smartest. a great professor at mit for 40 years, but i m smarter than him. i m smarter than everybody. there s nobody that understands the horror of nuclear better than me. nobody knows the politicians better than i do believe me. i understand the tax laws better than almost anyone. one of the great memories of all time, nobody knows more about trade than me. is it dangerous that a president thinks he knows better than everybody about everything? i m assuming that a rhetorical question. listen, you know, there s multiple levels on which we all listen to a compendium like that. on the one hand as a mom, a parent, a citizen, this is the exact opposite of what you tell your kids, this level of braggadociosness of shamelessness, ignorance is not the kind of thing that any of us would aspire for our children. on the other hand, when you listen to it, i m struck by the autok autocratic strain in so much of what president trump has done. that s the through line in these otherwise inexplicable actions is conflating his own sense of self-this aggrandized sense of self-and the idea that he knows better than anyone. he doesn t need a four star general like jim mattis to tell him about national security. he doesn t need silicon valley to tell him about technology. he believes that he knows better, and i think it explains a lot of the reason why he s much more comfortable on the world stage with autocratic leaders like vladimir putin and xi jinping in china, and let s not forget that many of these week s events were triggered by a phone call with the president of turkey who in many ways is a much more strongman type figure that trump is more comfortable with. but most successful people i know in business, and i think most of us know, they will say i hired you, i hired people who know more than me or are smarter on me on certain issues, to make me better. it s odd to hear anyone say i know more because you don t. you don t know what you don t know. david, the acting chief of staff, mick mulvaney is a defender of the president now. i want you to listen to an interview of mulvaney talking about the president s plan to build a wall. this is back in 2015. the fence is an easy thing to sell politically. it s an easy thing for someone who doesn t follow the issue closely, that will solve everything. a fence doesn t solve the problem. to just say build the darn fence and have that be the end of an immigration is absurd and childish for someone running for president to take that sim police tick simplistic view. he said it, mulvaney was on the hill pushing to get funding for the very wall that he said was silly. trump is already mad at him because of other critical comments that came to light. is the chief of staff just a thankless job in this administration? no, there s one that s more thankless. it s called attorney general. right. so the fact of the matter is that for the president, he doesn t really care, i don t think, that much what it is he gets as much as he cares what his base, what he can call it in front of his base, and i remember early in the president s time in office talking to one of his aides who had been dealing with him on a lot of issues and showing him maps and so forth, and saying, look, in this section, a wall may make sense. in this section, we can do it with electronic monitoring. in this section, we ve got other technologies to go use, and the president s view was anything s fine, just call it a wall. and you sort of saw that in his tweet today. but this really gets back to this fundamental question of what the opportunity cost is from focussing on this as our central national security issue. you know, if we actually believe that isis may not have been fully defeated, that it s lost its territory, but there is still something like 30,000 isis fighters. if we actually believe that a rising china or an aggressive russia is a much bigger challenge even in the years that president trump has left, are we burning up time and political energy here when you could be focussed on those larger issues, which is what makes the se successor to jim mattis so important. because it may be somebody who can come to the president and say here s what i believe the actual national security threats are, and here s our plan to address each one of them. or it could be somebody who could get in line once in office and say whatever it is, mr. president, that you lay out there, i m out to go defend you and clearly that s what the president wants. david, susan, thank you so much, i appreciate your time. the clock is ticking away to the partial shut down. less than an hour away. just about 45 minutes. leaders in congress thought they had a deal with the president to avert it, so who s the president really listening to? right wing media? we ll talk about it next. lean on me, when you re not strong and i ll be your friend i ll help you carry on lean on me. at dewar s, all our whiskies are aged, blended and aged again. it s the reason our whisky is so extraordinarily smooth. dewar s. double aged for extra smoothness. in them therr hills on your guarantevacation.find gold but we can guarantee the best price on this rental cabin. or any accomodation from hotels to yurts. booking.com, booking.yeah tand in your garage,son a brand new john deere. that s not a mirage. with 60 months financing at 0%, say happy holidays to money well spent. if additional offers are what you desire, visit your john deere dealer before they expire. now, start up your engines and drive out of sight. new john deere equipment for all and to all a good night. see your john deere dealer today to discover more great deals and special financing offers. new year, new deere. federal government moments from shutting down, and one senator says he knows why. republican bob corker told cnn that we have two talk radio hosts who influence the president. that s tyranny, isn t it. so right wing media running the country right now. let s discuss, brian stelter is here and phillip. good evening, is bob corker right? i don t think it s tyranny, but certainly this is kind of a rush limbaugh, ann coulter shut down. sean hannity is off, otherwise it would be the sean hannity shut down. we have heard all years how hannity and others are the shadow chief of staff. the feed back loop between trump and fox, trump and talk radio is as strong as ever because as he plays to the base more and more, that s his way of knowing what the base apparently cares about. yeah, and so every lawmaker i have had on who s been confident, right, about the shut down, i m like are you sure, the president. i ask, oh, yeah, we re sure. i m like, okay. because we know. and you say the same thing. you have been saying that. you said it on this show, didn t you. i said it on the show, donald trump could have his head turned by conservative media. donald trump said he was going to step up and sign the bill, there was huge backlash, saying he shouldn t do this, and at that point in time, he said i m never doing this again, i hate this bill. what we saw this week, it s not only ann coulter and lithe probm is that as brian says, there is this universe that talks to itself, which fox news has been at the center of, and donald trump is the first time there s been a prominent republican elected official who comes from that world. donald trump used to be on contract on fox news. he was on every week. this is his world. he lives in this world, always somewhat detached of the reality of the political moment. when he turns on his tv and sees people saying these things, it changes his mind. i want to point out that you have a piece, phillip has a piece that s in the, that you write, you said, your analysis shows that fox news and fox business mention the wall more than any other network. yeah, 2-1 over cnn. he can t let the cheer leaders down, basically. and you had a great piece about sarah sanders is saying everyone in americamen wants a wall. not at all. do you want a wall at home? most americans do not want a wall. there s already walls, fences, this entire debate is a bunch of bs, to the extent we re going to build nor more of a wall, most network does not promote trump s proposal. sarah sanders can say, all of america wants a wall, and because she s in an echo chamber, it feels true. 57% of americans oppose the wall according to a cnn poll. which aligns with support for trump or not. many are a proxy, do you like the president or not. the wall is another part of that argument. but it is notable how detached reality so much of this debate is tonight. what s amazing is, very quickly, i get an e-mail from a woman, all americans do want the wall. because all that happens is you see these poll numbers, fake news, push it aside, the reality is what me and my friends say and hear on fox news. if your entire universe is that. it can seem scary. it can seem like an invasion. it can seem that way on fox. let s listen to what fox says about the wall and we ll talk more. a stunning turn of evens. last week the president of the united states was in the oval office and said i would be proud to shut down the government. building the wall is worth shutting down the government and now it s like you know what we re looking at other departments for the money. if he agrees to the cr, which would continue funding the govrt government at the current levels, the sky high spending from congress which he ran against when he was running for president, it s going to continue. he loses, and the democrats will win everything they want. people who voted for him and wanted wall and went to the polls to vote for that wall, they want to know how he s going to do this. and they want to know why he seems to be softening his stance this morning. so here s the thing. people who voted for him, that s 30 some percent of the country. that s not everyone. again, 57% of people say they don t want a wall. and if you re watching fox news, you believe that, you believe there s this invasion, this caravan, this dire threat, when most people, the most illegal immigration we know from people who come over and over stay their visas. that s right. and yet the facts, those facts are not so widely in circulation on fox s pro trump talk shows. they were real reporters but the pro trump talk shows is where the president gets a lot of his information and warps his reality. the pressure he heard from fox and friends, from the other shows earlier this week, did seem to have a real effect and i think we re in one of these feed back loops. we re seeing action being taken as a direct result. i think they are challenging people that come on. they are. if you watch fox and friends, but still. but the narrative is pretty clear. the narrative is bigger than any question or answer heard on fox and the narrative is this is an urgent crisis, a national security crisis. now, we know with our own eyes that s not true, it can feel true to this part of the population. before you respond, i want to play this. what we saw then, that was just wednesday. today fox and friends took another hit at trump for pulling out of syria. listen to this. he s giving russia a big win. vladimir putin praised him. he also is doing exactly what he criticized president obama for doing. he said president obama is the founder of isis. he just refounded isis, because he got 30,000 men there and they re already striking back with our would be evacuation. the president s really on the griddle with this. i mean, it s pretty amazing to caesar see sarah sanders shar head in disagreement. we never see that. and the reason why, fox news rarely says things. to brian s point, it s not that the fox hosts themselves are being insincere. they are in this bubble, part of the conversation, part of looking at the evidence that s coming across, that s filtered out for things what isn t necessarily the bigger picture. it is not the case that they re doing trump s bidding. they are part of the same world. the message is be afraid, be very afraid. it s remarkable six weeks after the midterms where trump ran on border threats, the caravan, and lost in a big way, that loss didn t sink in. that loss wasn t really felt, apparently by trump or his allies in the media. as a result, they re back fighting a border battle. here s what you don t have, nuance, you don t have facts, you don t have information, what you have are slogans, build that wall, lock her up, and you have that and when you only have that, it s thin, it s weak, and it s crumbled. as i said earlier this week, i think this week and the whole mattis thing and flynn, rude awakening for a lot of trump supporters this week. a lot of folks. i got to run. thank you. we ll be right back. boom. enjoy your prime rib! anyone ever call you, meat santa ? no, that s. weird. happy holidays. enjoy. next customer? they call me maxie but i prefer tripod. i was your above-average four-legged homie and then wham bam minivan. some people pity me now that s lame. i still run, fetch, and swim. and, the ladies love me. i m the ultimate wingman. just don t ask me to high five. there s no place likargh!e i m trying. yippiekiyay. mom. more breaking news, sources telling cnn that president trump has lashed out at the acting attorney over revelations that came to light in the case of mi michael cohen, that s his former lawyer who has been sentenced to three years in prison. i want to brink in douglas brinkley and neil catiel. what do you say about these conversations that have reportedly been happening between the attorney general and the president? it s devastateingly bad news for trump and for whittaker both. he was installed as the acting attorney general and has always had a constitutionally tenuous claim to that position since he never, you know, was confirmed by the senate. the attorney general is a very very big job. it s a big deal. and this guy was a constitutional nobody, and really the president s lackey, and really the only reason he was put in really for that job was because president trump wanted someone to control the investigation into him. that s what it looks like. and now we re seeing devastating evidence that that is true, that basically whitaker has been the subject of lashing out by trump on two occasions about the professional jobs done by the southern district of new york justice department prosecutors. so look, i think the bottom line here is even if whitaker could have been acting attorney general, even if he could have supervised the mueller investigation, because of the ethics advice he got yesterday, which seems dubious on its own, but in any event, now he can t. it s over for him. he compromised, trump compromised whitaker entirely by having these conversations. interesting. so doug, our reportings that the president wanted to know more isn t being done to control the prosecutors. do you see this as the president putting pressure on whitaker to shut down any investigation that might implicate him, control the prosecutors? yes, donald trump is desperate. he s looking for any way out of his bind. whitaker by anybody with any intelligence knows must recuse himself. he can not be involved with the mueller investigation. he s a compromised man. i have nothing against him personally or his previous career. he s somebody that s worked in iowa and beyond in making a name for himself in the legal world, but alas, he can not weigh in at this juncture when he s that compromised. meanwhile, donald trump is trying to, i think, don, just always have up his sleeve the possibility of ending the mueller investigation. everybody says he won t. those same people said he may not shut down the government. those same people say, you know, that he wouldn t pull out of syria. donald trump is unpredictable and looking for a way out of his bind before the full mueller report comes out. yet mitch mcconnell won t sign off on legislation that will stop him from shutting down, that will protect robert mueller. can we talk about the supreme court. chief justice john roberts sided with the liberal justice to uphold a block on the trump administration s asylum ban. is roberts the new swing justice. roberts, because of brett kavanaugh s confirmation is the new swing justice. there are five justices appointed by republican presidents, four by democrats. we have grown up with the world in which the republican nominated justices have controlled the supreme court, indeed since 1971, so almost for 50 years we have had that happening, but nonetheless, republican nominated jurists like harry blackman with roe v. wade and so many other examples did vote with the democratic appointees to the court, so today s vote suggests the chief justice is now, yes, that swing vote, at least in this particular case. very interesting, doug, in november, chief justice roberts issued a rare rebuke of president trump s criticism of calling a judge who ruled against the administration an obama judge. here s what he said, and this is a quote, hex, we do not have obama judges or bush judges or clinton judges, what we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. so roberts defended this judge, the u.s. district judge and then he upheld his decision today. that has got to get under the president s skin, right? no doubt about it. roberts now has a lot of power. he s replacing kennedy. he s the deciding vote. i thought what was heroic that just occurred was ruth bader ginsberg at 85 years old casting her decisive vote on this before going to memorial sloan kettering hospital to get cancer growths removed from her lungs. she is a true profile in courage, and a heroin to the american people. roberts is the bane of donald trump. when you vote 5-4, everything for trump s immigration, and roberts stuck it to him again, second time in the last month. ginsberg is critical, we are told that she helped cast the deciding vote from her hospital bed, neil, undergoing surgery for an early stage lung cancer. she became a feminist, she s a cultural icon: how important is she to the supreme court right now. i can t overstate it. she is deeply, deeply critical, and she is tough as nails. i can tell you, you know, i was unfortunately in court the day after her husband died, and she showed up in court and was sharp as a tack, and i mean, this is an extraordinary woman. you know, she should be celebrated by people of all political sides, her best friend on the supreme court was antonin scalia, and she s a model, really, for what our american democracy is all about. during her 25 years on the court, ginsberg has never missed a day of oral argument. president trump tweeted about ginsberg just a few hours ago, and said wishing supreme court justice ruth bader ginsberg a full and speedy recovery. she has no plans to go anywhere, she is 85 years old, what would the potential impact of her retirement during the trump presidency be? people need to pray she recovers from her surgery and she stays in the supreme court, particularly on democrats or people with a more liberal bent because if donald trump really does make history, if he ended up god forbid, something happening to her, having three trump justices on the supreme court, you know, don, when we talk about roberts, it reminds me many some ways of earl warren when he was appointed by eisenhower to the supreme court in 1954 and shocked a lot of people for doing something for civil rights. we re seeing roberts, now i think on punishissues of immigr standing up the way warren did on civil rights. roberts is turning out to be one of the leading likes of our time ru right now because he is willing to stand up for trump. doug, neil, thank you for your time. thank you. we are now less than half an hour away, really just about 20 minutes away from a government shut down. hundreds of thousands of federal employees affected. how did we get here and is a solution in sight? my mom washes the dishes. .before she puts them in the dishwasher. so what does the dishwasher do? cascade platinum does the work for you, prewashing and removing stuck-on foods, the first time. wow, that s clean! cascade platinum. well, how ari dunno.ssage chairs woi m still a little stressed about buying our new house. well, it s a good thing we don t have to worry about homeowners insurance. geico can help with that. we can get homeowners insurance help from geico? well, sure. and they could save us a bunch too. mmhmm? i m starting to feel better already. get to know geico and see how much you could save on homeowners and condo insurance. the government is about to partially shut down. employees will koncontinue to w without pay. 380,000 will go on furlough. nine federal departments will close. 75% of the government has already been funded but some crucial departments will be impacted by the shut down, including homeland security, justice and interior. so joining me now is katherine rampel and steven moore to discuss. hello to both of you. this is serious business so do you agree, steven, with president trump shutting the government down over the wall amid the current market turmoil no less. i don t want to see a government shut down, no i don t want to see one. i think donald trump feels very strongly about the principle here. i heard your previous discussion about this issue about whether it makes sense to build the wall, whether the american people want a wall. i could just tell you when i worked on the presidential campaign, it was from the start of the campaign until the end, it was the first thing he always promised the american people that i will build the wall, and it became symbolic. i think something that was lost a little bit in your discussion about this earlier, it s not just about building the wall, it s about securing our boarder and making sure that drug runners and criminals and terrorists can t come across our border. if you say that then you have to be honest about exactly what the border wall, a border wall will and won t do, and it won t do what this president promises it will do. you can ask any expert, and they re going to tell you. you could ask mick mulvaney. you can ask mick mulvaney. it s not the end all be all. we have this audio now from a couple of years ago, he said this was a silly, simplistic, childish proposal that nobody who s thought even for a few minutes about this issue believes that this will, in fact, stop the supposed crisis of undocumented immigration. what he didn t mention, of course in that interview, although i believe, don, you mentioned earlier in the show is that about how half of undocumented immigrants are visa overstays. so people who came here legally. unless that wall is high enough to stop airplanes, it doesn t seem like it s going to be terribly effective. i think that s a speechless argument. it is true that half of the illegal immigrants overstay their visas and we have to do something about that. that s not an argument against building the wall. but where is the same energy with people saying stop that plane, stop that plane? hold on, katherine. steven, so where is that argument? well, we have to do stuff about internal enforcement of the laws as well. it s problematic, i agree that you have a number of liberal states and many liberal cities like san francisco that have become sanctuary cities and states that allow illegal immigrants to come in, overstay. this is such a fake crisis. i agree that s a big, big problem. i never said it was a big problem. i never said it was a big problem. this was all about drumming up the base. i m saying if the goal is to block undocumented immigration, a border wall not going to solve the problem. i don t actually believe this is some major crisis. if you look at the number of undocumented immigrants they have actually been going down over the years, not up. so this was really just about throwing red meat to the base. it was about creating an other to rally around during the 2016 campaign. stand by. we will continue. i got to get a break in. we ll be right back. the greatest wish of all is one that brings us together. the final days of wish list are here. sign and drive off in a new lincoln with zero down, zero due at signing, and a complimentary first month s payment. only at your lincoln dealer. do i use a toothpaste that whitens my teeth, or one that s good for my teeth? now i don t have to choose. from crest 3d white, the whitening therapy collection with new spearmint and peppermint oil. it gently whitens, plus it has a fortifying formula to protect your enamel. crest. healthy, beautiful smiles for life. up here at the dewar s distillery, all our whiskies are aged, blended and aged again. it s the reason our whisky is so extraordinarily smooth. dewar s. double aged for extra smoothness. and just like you, the further into winter we go, the heavier i get. and while your pants struggle to support the heavier you, your roof struggles to support the heavier me. [laughter] whoo. [crash] and your cut-rate insurance might not pay for this. so get allstate, you could save money and be better protected from mayhem like me. mayhem is everywhere. so get an allstate agent. are you in good hands? we are back down. the dow jones industrial average suffered its lowest in decade. back with me right now steven moore. this is more of your expertise, steven and katherine. katherine, this is for you. take a look at that. president trump lovers to boast the success of the market under his watch. and he has had some success. the red line on this graph shows growth of the s&p 500 from his inauguration day until today, december 21st. just over 6%. that s not bad actually. the red line, you know what that is? the red line is president oba obama excuse me, the blue line is president obama over 40% growth. is it smart for this president to brag about the success of the stock market. it was never smart for the president to tell the american public to judge the success of his presidency based on the stock market. the president does not control the market. second of all, this comparison that you are showing does not actually looks so flattering to trump even if he did control the stock market and what goes up can also go down. it was not particularly forward looking for trump to say hey guys, look at your 401-k. given that of course the market has taken a nose dive in recent weeks. in part because of uncertainty relate to his trade policy. he does not control the markets entirely. no presidents ever does. he does not help things by introducing a lot of uncertainty whether he s going to escalate on tariffs or whether there will be a deal or whether he s in fact going to have tariffs in other country. before i bring steven in. you were on with me earlier this week. his market gains were at 12%. they been had in just a few days. yeah. they re not doing well. some of what you will see is concern about the forecast going forward and the fed raised rates this week which was widely expected. the fed also downgraded this forecast for next year for gdp growth. there is some concerns about that and some concern in general about whether there are some risks in the economy and whether that may be filtering through. let s bring in steven now. the market took a big hit this week with the dow with the plunge this decade. if they continue to slide, does trump own that? it is the worse week of history for the stock market. by the way, just on your chart, next time you do it, remember the stock market rose 700 points the day after the election. you have to start that chart from the day that trump was elected and not inauguration day. it is still less flattering for trump than obama. the market when you taken into account, it is up 18%. i take your point, the market has been horrible this year and horrible this week. by the way, i love stocks right now. if you look at price earnings ratios for those that are investors. stocks are as big of a bargain as they have been any time in the last several years. there is a disconnect on the real economy which is very strong, every indicator is still very positive in terms of manufacturing and constructions and consumer confidence had been good. christmas season for kretailers have beg have been really good especially for the online. i think there is an over reaction of malpractice by the feds to raise rates. if this was priced in, katherine, the stock market falls 900 points. we ll have to answer that. coming up on the partial go government shutdown, we ll have the latest. so you can swish and clean your whole mouth instantly, then you were correct. and that was a really good guess. nice job. allow you to take advantage of growth opportunities. with a level of protection in down markets. so you can be less concerned about your retirement savings. talk with your advisor about shield annuities from brighthouse financial- established by metlife. tand in your garage,son a brand new john deere. that s not a mirage. with 60 months financing at 0%, say happy holidays to money well spent. if additional offers are what you desire, visit your john deere dealer before they expire. now, start up your engines and drive out of sight. new john deere equipment for all and to all a good night. see your john deere dealer today to discover more great deals and special financing offers. new year, new deere. there s no place likargh!e i m trying. yippiekiyay. mom. whetor surprise pizza,aco night, zantac works when you need it. it relieves or prevents heartburn in as little as 30 minutes, and lasts up to 12 hours. zantac. eat your way. treat your way.™ this is cnn breaking news. this is cnn tonight, i am don lemon. you can see it is midnight here on the east coast. our breaking news, the federal government now officially, partially is shutdown. congress was unable to reach an agreement with president trump. the president insisting that any deal would have to include $5 billion for a border wall. here is what he said in the oval office last week. okay, you want to put them on. i will take it. you know what i will say?
