month. >> there seems to be lots of policy confusion. not just now, for the past six years is. the focus is on prime minister truss, especially her inauspicious start in office. but this predates her, doesn't it? especially after brexit, which was supposed to usher in this era of economic boom for the uk. where has it all gone wrong? >> well, i mean, to be fair to the government, a number of outside crises have hit it. the coronavirus, and now we've got the world energy crisis. and that's really what's destabilized the public finances. but liz truss pursued a convictiquixotic approach, cutting taxes in the
19% from new york state alone, and 75% make less than $60,000 a year. again, it's devastating to the lowest income earners, devastating to the smallest businesses, it's just a horrifying sad story that will not go away. some i think, though, the policy has not helped and i think that's why you have a lot of confusion in the white house. >> policy and policy confusion, i would add to that. final question, charles, on this wall street journal editorial. the board at the wall street journal is looking at the impact of the federal extended jobless benefits that were going out for quite some time that eventually ended, and they have concluded this, that the pandemic jobless benefits and work, the correlation there, and this new study that shows the enhanced payments did reduce employment. and charles, this is a debate that raged for quite some time. and the board concluded the fact
possibility that the committee might decide it's premature to give a booser at this point. wait for a further decline in immunity and then the booster is more effective. if you look at the briefing from the fda, it bears that out. it didn't meet the criteria of a big boost unless those individuals had a further decline in immune response. i'm curious to see how that one works out. >> on that, obviously, we'll wait and see what they come up with, but if they say you're not there yet, does that mean no booster ever or we need more data? what do you see happening with that? >> i think we're going to need a third immunization at some point. what they might say is let's wait another month or two to see if there is better evidence for that need. there are a lot of other policy confusion. it creates confusion if you have

so-called transcript. >> i think most people expected that is exactly what happened when we got that summary, it was not a transcript, we saw those ellipses in the text, when we heard the reports from the whistle-blower that the actual transcript was placed in a classified server usually reserved not for the transcripts of phone calls but for top secret information. we suspected a lot of it is true and now clint watts we know from someone who was on the phone call and testified yesterday under oath that he tried to get the references to joe biden, the references to burisma back into the transcript, but they didn't turn up in the final summary that was presented to the public, that that's exactly what happened. >> what's remarkable is every day we find out about one more person that's in the white house or inside the administration that knew what was going on in terms of this phone call or the fallout from the ukraine policy confusion. we find out that this lieutenant colonel who's going to be honest when he goes in the door, who has his entire career and reputation behind him, who is an expert on ukraine and serve instead moscow, did not see the
of bad press. this follows the sudden resignation of white house communications director hope hicks and senior adviser jared kushner's security clearance downgrade, and now questions about who will stay and who will go are leaving some in the president's own party to joke about white house turnover. >> on the issue of personnel confusion and some policy confusion that you referred to there -- >> can't help you on the personnel front. >> even the president poking a little fun last night. the "washington post" sharing staff inside the administration saying, these are the darkest days in the president's tenure. white house reporter and cnn political analyst josh douse, good to see you. josh, tumultuous times in the west wing, so where is the president's head right now, if there is a way to know? >> well, there is a confluence of factors that are driving the
we have seen this out of the president before. he says things that appears bipartisan, he gets support, and then his base goes, remember who elected you, and then he changes his tune. >> i think it's less about something being bipartisan than this president has no core ideology. he has no core political beliefings. he has no policy beliefs. so he's simply just going to be floating in the wind and anything that's going to get done is going to get done in congress. he's either going to try to attach himself to the republicans and whatever their agenda they're trying to pass so he has a win. but otherwise, nothing is going to be driven from the white house. look at the policy confusion of his twitter feed just right now. >> all right, well, the "washington post" argues there are two possibilities when it comes to president trump switching sides. he doesn't fully understand the issue or he doesn't know what he wants. if that's the case, how difficult is this for republicans? you saw kevin mccarthy in that meeting on tuesday sort of correcting the president. no, mr. president, i believe what you mean is x.
as the way it was originally written. it seemed to be somewhat slap dash,en a attempt to make a very quick campaign promise fulfilled. the work primarily we know of steve bannon and steve miller, one of whom is not at the white house any longer. i give trump credit in that the process did take a while. he did change position from the campaign, and from what he had said previously when presented with more and better information. but that's the anomaly thus far in his presidency. the way in which the travel ban was both written and executing is more to the rule, which is much more about impact. that's why you see the policy confusion. one policy was created sort of in a week or two out of whole cloth to make good on a campaign promise. the other one was seven months
seen in a long time. two different world leaders are taking different paths to navigate an america led by donald trump. >> this is mtp daily and it starts right now. welcome, it does appear the setbacks are piling up early right now for the new trump white house. protest at republican town halls are any indication, there's growing anxiety over the trump presidency as his team battles blowback from the courts. some ethical missteps, policy confusion, and new allegations of improper contact with, guess who, russia. folks, every administration has it's growing pains at the beginning and they adapt, they change. trump's white house capable of doing that? is the president comfortable doing that? this news just in moments ago. a senior administration official says the white house does not plan to take their case on the
i almost feel it's a policy of willful ignorance rather than facing the reality that we actually have right now. i think that at the end of the day we have just this incredible policy confusion. never mind what our strategy is to execute that policy. we have to stop what we're doing and take a hard look at everything going on in the middle east right now because it's not going in the right direction. >> here to react is former israeli ambassador dori gold and the author of "the ten commandments still the best moral code." that's dennis prager. dorrey, let me begin with you. remind everybody two weeks ago the top mullah in iran saying this.
