we have to move on. >> does the administration want to wait until after 2020 for a trade deal? >> we will take it a day at a time. talks are round-the-clock. we are close, not quite there yet. the president has characterized these talks as constructive. i don't want to make any forecast about any dates. there is no arbitrary deadlines. >> what about the tariffs? no arbitrary deadline, but as e president laid out a plan that suggested the temporary suspension of some of those consumer goods tariffs you are referring to would goes who december 15 and revert back to a

higher rate. i don't want to say that will happen, i'm just saying keep an eye on it. i don't want to make any predictions. is out there and could happen if the deal is not december 15. these are things that could happen. >> on a scale of 10, how would you rate this jobs report? , especiallyo happen with impeachment on the horizon? >> this is a heck of a good report. the numbers, we were jousting a little bit. i say that with the greatest respect, remember the recession that we had and i said there was no recession? the job numbers are now trending higher on a three month basis.

the report was spectacular. upwardsther 41 adjusted from the prior month's. at it, america is working. is america working, america is getting paid. a long reagan cuts guy time ago, he used the phrase take-home pay after taxes, after inflation. uprage american family $5,000 in 2.5 years. to go into a partisan riff about prior is sostrations, but that much greater than anything we have seen from republicans or democrats in the last 20 years. america is working, it is a middle-class boom.

they are making good money, coming back out of the woodwork, and they are producing. end to it. any i know business cycles comment go, but i don't see an end to it. i see more strength between one or more instinct. , their wageorkers gains are faster than their boss. i think that is cool. still one car tariffs the table? been a couple of weeks. ambassador lighthizer submitted andport to the president, the president accepted the report and has not made any comments so far. >> the chinese say they will

implement tariff waivers on soybeans and pork. should we take that as an encouraging signal? mood music. good i appreciate it very much. >> the deregulation it later this afternoon, can you make the case that the average person has seen an increase in their bank account because of it, or is it a corporate small business growth? >> it is a big cost reduction. either a small business or a middle or large as this. a huge cost reduction. not exactly like a tax cut. more take hometh pay. we will have more specific numbers. it affects everybody. regulationsowners

has been a phenomenal impact. night foring last today's pressers, the small business group is putting out optimistic stuff. think the president's rate cut will have a big part of that. >> can you explain how it trickles to the average person's bank account? >> if you are running a business and your cost structure is slashed, you will have more money. have an economic therapy session sometime. marginal cost, marginal revenues. about to go into 2020. how much do you think the president leeway to negotiate with the chinese changes in an

election year versus what it has been today? thatdon't want to predict these talks will go that far. that's up to the president. think his criteria change. he's protecting america, , ourding our economy manufacturers, farmers, he's defending us from unfair trading practices. i don't think that has anything to do with election. what he's looking at is the u.s.,erm security of the its economy, and workforce. go.tions come and every year is an election.

down key trump has let principles of fairness and , and law-abiding deals and enforcement. he wants to do it. believe this, i will say it again, america is the greatest economy in the world and has been, because we are the andst, the rule of law, because we are allowed to exercise our god-given talents. otherthere is theft or issues, we don't permit that here. we mustn't permit it overseas. i don't care what country it is. you can't steal our god-given

technology the advances and innovations which have made us so great for centuries. that's what the president is fighting for. i don't think it has to do with elections. i love talking to you, but i want to be fair. our principles haven't changed whatsoever. it put him in a less commanding position when it comes to china? >> no. think this impeachment stuff is going anyplace. there may be a vote, there won't be a conviction. that is my view.

aside, those opinions we've seen no evidence of that. there is a theory, and i'm not going to go deep, but yesterday a grandan hour with older american-statesman who just came back from a china visit. visit, thena statesman had two audiences with the president. would rather continue to discuss and negotiate with president trump. will just underscore a grand old statesman. your a smart lady.

>> the president mentioned he might be considering actions against nations that are not the 2%? >> i don't want to go there. he has not elaborated. one good thing that came out of askedthe president has for greater cost burden sharing. he got a lot of resistance, but now if you count up, not everyone is doing it. you have a lot of countries donating 2% gdt or more to nadel, and they weren't. -- gdp or more to nato, and they want. i have to go to a meeting. you are all wonderful.
