10:02 pm
poppist his ambition is nothing less than to remake conservativism in the world and america and that's remaking politics. but everything from a goldman sk executive was set to clashed with white house officials including the president's family. not even a year into his job, steve bannon was fired. when he was dismissed, bannon didn't disappear. he resumed his post at breitbart, the conservative news outline and continued to give advice to the president. then in january michael wolf's provocative inside account of the white house fire and fury was published. bannon was a chief source which painted the president in a less than flattering light. trump had enough. in a statement he said that when bannon was fired he not only lost his job, he lost his mind. after his presidential dressing
10:03 pm
down, bannon also resigned from breitbart but has continued to work to spread his brand of populism and in high demand all over europe especially in italy. he invited me to rome to interview him why rome? for a place that's been accused of being chaotic. italian politics are more chaotic than ever. what's caused all the trouble is a recent win by italy's populist who bannon has been supporting. we'll dig into that later in the show with steve bannon. over the next hour you hear his thoughts on the wave of populism rising around the world on the republican chances in the mid-terms back home and on his former boss, president trump. here is my exclusive interview. >> steve bannon pleasure to have you on. >> thanks for having me, fareed. >> you said that you thought that don jr.'s meeting with the russians in trump tower was treasonous you said somebody should call the fbi.
10:04 pm
>> but i did make a -- >> but i want to ask a question about the issue there. >> yeah. >> the substance, not the. >> yeah. >> in a sense rod rosenstein called the fbi in the sense he called somebody so investigate named bob mueller. >> isn't that good. i've been a big proposant of mueller. i was the guy that said don't fire comey. this is petering out. it's the c block on anderson cooper. nobody is interested anymore. it will be done in 90 days and done with that. >> i have to protest that lots something it's in the a block. if you get a special. i've been a proposant of mueller i've been a witness of fact. i've always said he is a combat marine great individual. that will play out as it plays out where you have a problem and i said the guy that said
10:05 pm
publicly ty cob should be fired. he gave the president i thought terrible advice. i think lied to the president consistently about the nature of this investigation and the timing of it. and giving overall dockage. unlike all the presidents that sat with every other president we went and give a million pages of documents and allowed the white house counsel, the chief strategist to be -- to expedite this which i thought was not wise. >> okay. >> okay but here -- i said cob should be fired and i also said -- i was a guy supporting rosenstein i was there when sessions brought him up as the guy for it that he should be terminated. and here is why. not mueller but rosenstein. and here is what i think you really -- the focus ought to be is that the president of the ups is the chief law enforcement officer of the country. he ought to order rosenstein to do what deafen nunes did and release every document
10:06 pm
associated with stephen hal person and all the people associated about whatever happened in cambridge. we ought -- not to cnn not to "the new york times" not to "washington post" or the white house, to give it to the chairman of the house intelligence committee. we have to find out all the paperwork who got paid, what happened when a spy and a recruiter of spies which appears from public things if rosenstein doesn't do it he shall be terminated >> let me ask you about rosenstein's boss. >> yes. >> you were instrumental in getting trump sessions to endorse trump. >> yes very close. >> donald trump says he wishes he picked another attorney general is he right. >> i think the president is wrong. i think he has been wrong from the beginning about -- if i can respectfully disagree with the president of the united states, i think that -- i think the whole concept of recusal is not even an issue. i think that rudy giuliani or chris christie or jeff sessions
10:07 pm
anybody associated with the campaign would have had to recuse themselves before grassley's committee even voted him out to go to the floor for a vote. so i think the recusal is an issue -- yes it's an issue dealt with and had to be dealt with. whether you picked roddy or christie. this thing about sessions was not the first pick. rudy was always the first pick. jeff sessions and rudy wanted the secretary of state. even rudy knew there was this issue of recusal. i think the president is wrong. if you look at what jeff sessions has done on immigration, migration and all the key issues of the justice department. sessions is personally doing an excellent job. i think sessions has done a job of did he involving this down to rosenstein. i think the question is rosenstein particularly with the southern district of manhattan involved in the cohen thing. the southern district of manhattan is involved in the trump organization. now he refuses to give some sort of briefing to the gang of eight.
10:08 pm
they refused to give the documents to nunes, i think now that rosenstein ought to be -- he should be give and direct order simple. you turn every document associated with this spy over in cambridge and whatever foreign institution was involved, whether mi five or mi 6 or anybody else. you give whatever the fbi did, whatever the cia did. you see clapper and these guys and brennan they're bitter old men. you turn over every document. and if he doesn't turn it over you give him 24 hours. and if he doesn't fire him. that's giving a law enforcement officer a direct order to turn over documents to capitol hill. and if he doesn't do it i would fire him. >> next on this cnn special, steve bannon has complained about the preponderens of immigrants from certain parts of asia in powerful positions in america. so basically you are saying there are too many people like me in america isn't that racist?
10:09 pm
then at your next meeting, set your seat height to its maximum level. bravo, tall meeting man. start winning today. book now at lq.com but as it grew bigger and bigger,ness. it took a whole lot more. that's why i switched to the spark cash card from capital one. with it, i earn unlimited 2% cash back on everything i buy. everything. and that 2% cash back adds up to thousands of dollars each year... so i can keep growing my business in big leaps! what's in your wallet?

10:12 pm
i want to ask you about immigration. >> sure. >> you've said that immigration is the issue on which you're going to destroy the left. beat progress he was. >> yes. >> what do you mean. >> because immigration is about not just sovereignty. it's about jobs. massive -- i remember the first bucket when we got on the trump campaign. the first bucket was make
10:13 pm
massive illegally grimes and the illegally immigration the central about jobs. massive immigration is the chamber of commerce and a lot of the republican republican party that want to flood the zone because it's unfair competition for black and hispanic working class. in other words you got so much labor right that you have basically an agriculture. you have the unlimited pool of labor to draw from. legal immigration at the top of the aim thing. you can't take the hispanic system from the s.t.e.m. system in grammar to the best engineering schools to computer science in the great jobs unless you limit the h 1 bv and the unfair competition they have from east asia and south agy it's no hit to the people from china or yand they're fantastic. we have to carve space out by allowing our citizens to get the jobs. that's why i'm saying from day one the exactic party and particularly the progressive
10:14 pm
part of bernie sanders in the labor movement i've said this from day one we can carve off 23 to a third of bernie sanders movement is at the end of the day they don't have the answer for immigration we have to limit massive legal grimes. -- immigration you're seeing this in the trump administration. what he has done with the legal immigration that's why we have the lowest black unkbt and hispanic unkbm. that's why rages are in agriculture. >> is why donald trump has gone very hard line on immigration? is this the strategy that will limit the damage on the midterm? >> here is what i think happened in the first year administration we clearly had conflicting voices of the globalist, the gary cohen and mcmasters good guys but they come with the thing on the nationalist. i think as president trump looks at the midterm and the republican party paul ryan quit.
10:15 pm
the republican party has had attitude we'll fight it district by district. what trump has done i think is moved aside the chief of staff. he is now -- five or six people directly report to him. he has a new nec, new ncs. nick mulvaney reports to him coms reports to him. he is executing on his plan on the promises he made up until build the wall which i'll get to in a second. this is playing for november 6th of 2018 it's a base plus election. okay if you want to limit -- by the way it's it's up or down vote on impeachment. trump son the ballot in every district. this is not some democratic congressman versus republican congressman. this is donald trump versus nancy pelosi and sometime. >> and he is nationalizing it using immigration. >> you are seeing more of this. more of the central beating heart issues. immigration is definitely one. >> thinking about football players who happen to be black.
10:16 pm
>> no actually the opposite. he is seeing kanye west. black america is now understanding i got the lowest unemployment in history. my wages are rising. what this guy is saying is making sense. it's not about a minimum wage of 15 bucks. it may cost $20 to flip a hamburger. what we have to limit is limit the unfair competition. the working class blacks and hispanic have been hit more than any other segment of our country. these are some of the best patriots. they're in the u.s. army, the rifle platoons in the marine corps that working class black and hispanic have been eviscerated. from the unlimited competition from foreign labor. that has to stop. trump, i think -- this is going to be. up or down vote on november 6th. this is about impeachment. tax cuts all the economy will go up. but the republicans have been running adds on tax cuts alone
10:17 pm
it's not resonating. you're either with nancy pelosi or with donald trump. to a degree -- remember the democrats have questioned his legislate macy from the beginning, the nullification project .. the one things democrats in the opposition party media cnn you guys got one thing right. you're getting a do over. trump's second presidential race will be on november 6th. he is on the ballot. up or down vote. do you back trump's program okay with all the good and bad? do you back his program or back removing him? because that's what pelosi and tom styer and these guys what. >> you say you're not a racist i take you at face value. but i want to ask you about the policies and the intended or unintended consequences they sure as hell trakt a lot of people who are racist. i think the exchange you said with trump on breitbart. trump said he was in favor of high skilled immigrants. wait a minute if you're ending up with two thirds of kohl son valley ceos being from south
10:18 pm
asia, a country is more than an economic community. >> yes. >> basically you're saying too many people like me in america isn't that racist. >> no, no. economic nationalism doesn't care about race, ethnicity, religion, doesn't care about gender, doesn't care about religion, skaufl preference. it cares about if you're a united states citizen. >> those people -- in silicon valley. they are american citizens. >> we don't -- hang on we don't know -- no, no we don't know what's coming through by hb 1 visa or not. we can't get the country sorted out until we have now taken the entire elementary school and made it science, technology, engineering and math. >> steve with all due respect, what that answer implied was that they had come from the wrong culture. if they came from the right culture if i was white and christian you might have a different. >> makes no difference no. >> what you mean. >> if you're from asia and you
10:19 pm
hear second generation american citizen absolutery no problem. the. hb 1 visa where you come and take the jobs of american citizens is for the acceptables thap that's not racist. the central beating heart of this is that hispanics and blacks have to get into the high valley tech jobs we're not doing that as long as they have unfair competition. >> by the way, they're not going to do that by gutting spending you're celebrating the did he constructing of the administrative state but it's the scholarships and programs and prek and nutrition programs that help people rise up. >> have we -- we just pass add 4.3 tril yan dollar budget they added to the programs. when they added to defense programs they added to all the other programs. we candidate cut one penny from the programs. by the way it's 1.3 tril yan of discretionary spending. we have $1 trillion deficit structurally.
10:20 pm
>> but the trillion and a half dollars tax cut. >> that was supposed to be the concomitantant part was supposed to be significant cuts in the budget. and the political class failed to do it. when president trump woke up to the fact that he had been sold a bill of goods. remember he says this will never happen again. one of the events to watch in the coming election before november 6th -- september 30th is the end of the apprehensions year. he has already said i'm not kicking the can down the road more. we're not having crs that's why you see on capitol hill people are talking about we have to get this done before the august recess. >> okay i got to get a few more things. >> by the way what i'm saying is that i think the president trump nationalizing this, the wall is central. the wall is not just totemic. it's central to his program. i believe that what he is going to do is as we come up on september 30th if that appropriations bill does not
10:21 pm
include include spending to fully build his wall not some 1.6 billion for prototypes i mean to build the southern wall i believe he will shut down the government. i believe the government will shut down in the run up to the election. >> you've been really fies about donald trump in this interview and yet he calls you sloppy steve. he says you've lost your mind. he says you had nothing to do with his election. what's your response? >> he is donald trump. i think he is doing a fantastic job. look every day is different. you just got to hang -- you got to swing with it. i knew trump for many, many years before i stepped into the campaign. not really well. >> does he call you to tell you steve i'm kidding. >> trust me he does not do that. every action he is taking, i am really happy with. i think he has the right with larry cudd low the right guy at nec. >>-free trade are you. >> look what he did. the first interview -- larry cudd low sat down with -- no no sat down with peter nofr o he went on with the interviews he said we have to be tough on china.
10:22 pm
china has cheated us. you said it in your column two months ago. we've got china dead to rights in this thing. they can't happy talk -- they can't go to davos and give a speech about globalization about how the world is-free trading when he they run as a america tilist society. >> why did i come all the way to rome to interview steve bannon? well italy's politics were in absolute chaos this week. and bannon has a lot to say about the subject. much more on that when we come back. >> we're coming up on the tenth year anniversary of the financial crisis. the fuse lit then that brought the trump revolution is what's happening here in italy. crohn's disease.

10:26 pm
what a week to be in italy? i was invited here to rome by %-p movement here, a movement creating more political chaos than italy usually has. the trouble stems from the march elections. that vote saw the populist party surge in popularity, regging traditional politics. the party ran on italy firps mentality promising crackdown on immigration if that sounds familiar and the populist coalition threatened the italian relationship with the european union causing fwraf concerns among italians a europeans and global stock markets. stocks were tumultuous based in large part on the turmoil in italy.
10:27 pm
steve bannon is here to support and learn from the italian populists. >> in a sense you think we're in italy in an unusual moment because this is the future and it might be the united states. let me set the scene and then you tell me why this is the future. you had a strange left/right coalition, a populist movement with the five-star movement along with the northern league kind of separatist movement of northern italy. they won a majority in the election. why is this the future and what does it mean for the -- you know politics in the west. >> we're coming up on the tenth year anniversary of the financial crisis, the financial collapse that happened in september of 2008 as you remember and the presidential election of obama and john mccain. the implosion of the world capital markets has never been sorted out. the fuse lit then that eventually brought the trump revolution is the same thing happening in italy. you've had the stagnant economy. the economy today is aller than 2008. you've had a populist and nationalist movement kind of
10:28 pm
form. one in the north and one in the south. what happened that was so amazing --s reason i came over and saw this trump rally type intensity, you had a full vetting of particularly the center parties wsh traditional center parties in this populist and nationalist movement on the right and the populist movement on the left. they won. in fact two thirds of the vote that took place in march was really anti-establishment saying we want to tri something different. what was most amazing talking about big ideas and incredible participation by young people. young people were engaged particularly on the feist-star movement really an internet based movement. >> that's the only populist movement in europe at least that draws young people. >> yes for right now. i mean you do have some young people in the populist movements. the five-star movement is a young person's movement, right? it's compelling not just from the south but drawing young people. they then over the eight-week period -- i was vocal after the election in the media here saying you know it would be interesting if they put
10:29 pm
together -- leave the old split of left appear right aside and put together a unity government of forth and south. >> you see this as sanders plus trump. >> elements of the sanders movement and elements of the trump movement or the trump base. kwhafs most important -- i think for american audience or world audience is what five star represents is anti-crony capitalism and it's the political class, the permanent political class that foifted this burden on us. we want to ged rid of these guys. they're not schooled in government. the head of demaio was a waiter. the mayor of rome, the young mayor of rome was formally a secretary. these are people from every day walks saying we are the anti-political party. in 80 days they put aside differences of north and south, right and left and came together with a government in a 56-page or 60-page document that layed out flat tax, how they do the guaranteed income graduated
10:30 pm
thing. well thought through on the migrant issue, on flat tax with, on growing the kpee, getting the pay back up to 3%. >> brewedly speaking fair to say the policy was left wing on economics but right wing on immigration. >> except the flax tax. this is the steve forbes rand paul dream of a flat tax. hungry poland and other countries experimenting with it. remember, italy is the fourth largest economy in- one of the founding members i think the eighth largest economy in the world. still a major industrial power. people forget this is not just for tourism it's a major industrial power particularly in the north. they were going to the 15% flat tax which is radical. it was well thought through not wide eyed. here is what impressive about the two leaders petition thut put their egos aside. they put another guy up unknown law professor as the prime
10:31 pm
minister and put a guy, and actually the you're owe controversial because he said this is a german cage. france and germany are killing us. but they put him forward and the central guys rejected it. >> how will this come to america? why do you think. >> i think the tea party revolt of 2010 which saw 62 seats go in the house kind of petered out a little bit with the romney campaign and obama. what i -- i saw in the european elections in 2014 with nigel faraj, the reinvig ration of the -- reinvig ration of the populous movement. europe is base a year ahead of the united states. and i think you're seeing now pieces being put together where you see populist nationalist movements with reform, with
10:32 pm
people saying hey it's the permanent political class. what we have to do is get rid of politic. s, get involved citizens. that's i think the power you see here. you could begin to see the elements of bernie sanders coupled with the trump movement that really becomes a dominant political force in american politics. >> next on this cnn special trump has yet to build the wall and the tax cut disproportion knitly helps corporations and people already rich. has the trumpian revolution, as bannon envisioned it failed? i asked steve bannon. >> i was the guy that argued there there ought to be a 44% tax for the upper brkts. but that was dismissed early on. you have to make manufacturing competitive in the united states. and that's the heart of that -- >> but it hasn't come -- investment hasn't come back. instead the estate tax has been exemption has been doubled. steve.2% of american pay estate taxes >> fareed, i do disagree because i think sometimes you're caught up in too much process. ur social security alerts.

my ci can worry about it,ine. visit your local visionworks or do something about it. garlique® helps maintain healthy cholesterol naturally. and it's odor free. and pharmacist recommended. garlique.® so you think at the heart of this populism that you see sweeping the western world is the economic populism to take care of working class people who have been left behind. i wonder, 500 days into the trump administration, the signature achievement of the trump administration has been a tax cut basically been disproportion knitly to the wealth, corporations, there hasn't been much return of manufacturing jobs. you gave a speech once where you said three things they have to do. control immigration. you have to take care of -- bring back jobs from china and get out of the wars. >> yes.
10:37 pm
>> none of that's happened. there is no where -- no jobs back from china. they were still. >> let's -- let's go with taxes. >> all you have is a big tax cut. i can't believe you approved of that. >> let's go to the kaks cut. when we first came in paul ryan and guys had been working seven or eight years the border adjustable tax made on the model of germany to make us a export nation heavy inducement to manufacturing. that blew up in the first 90 days. the cokes and wal-mart and the retailers said this is a value added tax. we have to get rid of this. then the trump program was i believe in the center of it i think is quite wise. what they did is said hey we can't get it done we have to get competitive with germany and china as far as taxes and repatriation. the heart of it -- remember i was a guy that argued there ought to be a 44% tax for the upper brackets with you that was dismissed early on. but the beating heart of it i
10:38 pm
i think the reason populous came together it was a major first step first step for getting investment back to the united states. you have to make manufacturing competitive in the united states that's the heart of it the tax >> but it hasn't come bam investment hasn't come back. instead the estate tax has been exemption has doubled. steve .2% of americans pay estate taxes .2. >> i think fareed sometimes you're ut up in process. you are seeing the animal spirit reinvestment in the country. one of the reasons we have 3 growth at the fourth quarter 2.2% but the projection is for the 3%. was it a perfect tax cut and perfect populist tax cut? the answer is no. but it's starting to rejuvenate the american kpee and gives us an engine to drive the .. the answer yes. you'll see president trump later in his first term and second term start to address some maybe
10:39 pm
the inequalitities in the tax code which should have been addressed in the ryan bill. but that blew up early on in the administration. >> so then the other part. >> by the way, one thing about the elites, here is the thing. i don't believe that people focus enough on what started this. it's interesting your show started about ten years ago. the financial crisis of 2008, the brought on by the elites of both parties, okay, where they bailed themselves out, remember that was when bern. when lehman brothers went bankrupt on the is ath. the smartest guys the geniuses didn't realize that lehman brothers was the heart of the world commercial paper polk market. they go to bush and said we need a trillion dollars by 5:00 in the afternoon. >> i got it, steve. >> no, no but they took. >> but the same people. >> you are giving them another tax cut. i don't understand that. >> no, no. >> is the price you're paying to keep the republican party with you?
10:40 pm
be honest you're paying a price to the republican establishment. >> listen when we first got into the campaign you have to bring remember we're a coalition, a coalition the republican establishment and this populist nationalist movement. and it takes both to win. we're kolg cognizant of that. i do believe the heart of the tax cut was the corporations to be competitive overseas with germany and china. it's a winner. my point with the establishment, the balance sheet of the federal reserve in 2008 was $880 billion. it's 5.5 trillion a day. what the elite did did was flood the zone with liquidity. there wasn't a deflation and collapse of the financial markets. in the euro zone. if you own real estate. stock or property. it's the greatest ten year run in history. the working guy is stiffed the entire time. that's led to the revolt. that's what you see in italy. the elites don't have a
10:41 pm
response. what stunned me people in the united states think washington is arrogant to the heartland of the country. it's nothing compared to brussels and the city of london are to the individual countries. they have basically dismissed. here you had an election with two thirds of the people voting anti-establishment parties. almost 50% voted for five star and the league and completely dismissed after putting together government they complete ly dismissed and said not acceptable. >> stay with me here. i have more of the interview come up. i'll ask him, did donald trump take over the gop or did the gop take over donald trump?

so the second part of your program was bringing jobs back from china. i'm wondering, again, you look at what is happening with the administration. there is a lot of talk on being tough on trade but very little action. steve mnuchin walked back a lot of the comments. then the president throws a life line to zt, a chinese company basically exists on american technology and says he does it because he is worried about chinese jobs. you must. >> you had a column a couple of weeks ago i couldn't disagree with more. about trump as a negotiator versus a marketer. okay. let's step back a second. wove been told with the rise of china both from the cheer leaders, the rational accommodationist and even the hawks that it was inexorable, the rise of china. donald trump has done something extraordinary that wall street
10:47 pm
and the corporatist told us couldn't be done. he has three weapon processes one is tariffs on a massive school. the 50 billion we're talking about and another 100 billion after that and another 100 billion. maybe up to a quarter trillion dollars of tares i was. number two is the 301 where china forces not steals our intellectual property. forces us to give the intellectual property. and the last is the actions like zte where we can implode a company. by cutting them off from the supply chain. >> but the action has been to throw a life line to zte. >> remember, the whole thing about the grand bargain with china do we set the geostrategic balance with china for the next 50 years. on top of that he has the south china sea and north korea. he has to balance the two flash points in the world probably are
10:48 pm
the two or three most intense flash points where war can start. in doing that. >> this is not answering the question because i know you. >> no, no, wall street told us all weather watcher is the blunt instrument of swift system or cutting off capital markets. trump brought in three weapons. at the same time they came over because they had a sense of urgency. >> one of the heads of the chinese me. >> they doesn't get on without a sense of urgency. you have the split in the administration, wall street guy was mnuchin that want to accommodate. and to steve's defense work out a short term deal. and then you have the hawks be lightheizer miller, saying to we have china where we want them. and the president's negotiating strategy is give a little take a little et cetera.
10:49 pm
here is where we are nafta around the world, we're at the beginning stages of the major renegotiation of the economics of the united states and how we are treated throughout the world and what our prays is in the world. it's at the heart as you said a couple of months ago of the republican party in the reformation of the republican party. his biggest enemies are the republican party. and it shouldn't be losing people when cane went to capitol hill. he went because he knew the free traders are. he had basic backing when he said going to the negotiations i understand that congress is full of free traders from the heritage and kato and also democrats i got free traders there. trump has done an amaze be job. he has taken us farther than anybody with china. he has real engagement. it's not happening overnight. but you'll see in the next six months to a year i think a real recalibration of the relationship with china we are putting america first and stop
10:50 pm
being treated as a tributary state. right now it's barbarian management we are james town to great britain. we send natural gas, soybeans hogs and they send us back -- they send us back advanced manufacturing. of someone in th republican establishment. they say that's fine. trump talks tough on some of these things but it doesn't happen. what you're going to see is you're going to make some of these attempts at protectionism. he's doubled down on afghanistan, on iraq, he's more engaged militarily in the wars you wanted to get out of. so when they look at it it seems
10:51 pm
they're saying republican hasn't taken over the republican party, the republican party has taken over donald trump. >> okay, let me beg to differ. what you have to remember is that what he is doing is the right way populism is different than the populism you see in europe. europe always looks for a state solution. part of what right wing populism is, is deconstructing the state. it's opening up the market for the working class people, and getting more of a piece of the action for the working class and lower middle class. what trump has done with judges, deregulation and really under the surface as deconstruction state, totally plays for the populus agenda. remember, these trade deals are complicated, the trade deal, walk away from tpp, we're deep into it with nafta. we're very deep into it with china, on the fact we just laid on $50 billion in tariffs. right. and so -- and by the way,
10:52 pm
he's making progress on these every day. let's talk about afghanistan and the wars. the central thesis of the trump movement and donald trump is america first, it's not america isolationist or america alone. what he looks at, he does this in a very sophisticated way, he does it in way that the community doesn't get yet. he says, look, the post war liberal rules based order, they came after world war ii is essentially today from europe, the persian golf, the straits and the northwest pacific is essentially that combination of trade relationship, commercial relationships, capital markets and security guarantees and alliances is basically underwritten by the american tax payer. under written by the american tax payer and deplorables where that tax burden goes. in addition, it's their kids in the hen -- hindu mountains of
10:53 pm
afghanistan, south korea and peninsula. there has to be a recalibrations of this. it's not that america is backing off. it's that america is more than a humanitarian, military, world force. in nato, he said, hey, it's got to be 2%. you have to be an ally. >> that stuff obama also said, the point is -- >> the difference is -- >> there are more troops now and more bombs -- >> no no, this is an important point. what he's doing, whether it's in northwest pacific with japan or korea, he's engaging our allies to say, hey look, this has to work for america overall. korea i'm going to renegotiate the trade deal, tame we talked about the fed system and you pay for the thaad system. same thing in japan. it's about the foreign community that has bifurcated this. donald trump looked at this as a practical businessman and said,
10:54 pm
you can't bifurcate these. these are trade relationships and national security. that engagement, people, the first thing media says about him, he's an isolationist, we wants america to go alone, it's the opposite. if you look at everyone, it's engagement. including in iran. remember in iran, it's the front line nations of saudi arabia, and the united air of emirates and israel, jordan, their the ones that are the biggest cheer leaders for what he's done. if you look around the world it's the exact opposite as he's been portrayed. america seems to be deeply polarized under donald trump. urn -- european countries are also being torn apart. how will steve bannon end this polarization and bring people back together. i ask him when we come back. >> i keep saying if bernie sanders had been more confrontational and had more sterns he would have been the nominee and had a real fight with donald trump. crohn's disease.

polarization, the battle, the sense that it is now warring tribes. is that -- it might work in politics, but to quote lincoln, how do you bind the wounds of the country back together? >> i think it's healthy. here's why i think it's healthy, people are more engaged in these topics now more than ever. these are the great issues of the day. this is why i keep saying this theory of history in the fourth turning, the country's going to be one thing or the other. this battle between national and globalist. it's the fundamental truth of what america is and what america will be. i welcome it, i love the confrontation. in fact, i keep saying if bernie sanders had been more confrontational and had more stones, he would have have been the real nominee and we would have had a real fight with donald trump in the run up to
