roulette wheel. >> it's quite a roulette wheel, it's risky. the number one business block continues erick bowling. donald j. trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on. >> the donald not backing down but doubling down on saying he wants a temporary ban on muslims coming into the u.s. the media perhaps enjoying this controversy more than anyone. check out the cover from the "new york daily news" this week. trump is beheading the statue of liberty, they're saying he went too far, but is the media going too far? >> welcome to cashing in, i'm eric bolling.

again, america, look at this picture. it's the media, are they fueling the donald trump fire really beheading the statue of liberty? what's going on? >> i think it's a ---they're kind of going a little overboard with this. you know, he hasn't actually done anything. he hasn't implemented any poll esi. when hillary clinton had her e-mail scandal, which i think is far more atrocious than this, and she actually did something, she went and deleted e-mails and that americans can't see, and she went and had a private server. i didn't see the media calling her ridiculous words and names the way that they have with donald trump. so i think there's a little bit of hypocrisy. >> what do you say, john? >> political speech is provocative. you know when barry goldwater wanted to bomb a little girl. the media unfortunately

represents the people for good and bad. trump savages the media, i don't know why it's wrong for them to responds. >> we're just pointing out that they think he beheaded the statue of liberty. are they crying out for attention? i'm talking about the daily news. >> they're just telling people what's going on. donald trump said he didn't mind being compared to hitler, we actually heard that come out of his mouth. he's the first person i have heard in any sort of leadership position saying he didn't think the japanese internment camp was that bad of an idea. we know that the majority of republican primary voters --- >> in what way? >> it incites violence? >> is there any proof of that? are you just speculating that? >> so donald donald trump is saying it's okay -- you're telling me you have specific examples of veils being sparked by commentary by either donald

trump or any of the other -- >> i know there was a foreigner who was attack and they said they wanted to kill him because he was muslim. we know there was a cab driver in new york who was attacked because she was muslim. >> are you bringing this back to donald trump? hold on with me for one minute. i want to play a sound bite, it's not just the west, this is a dynamic that's going on in the gop right now. donald trump has set it up so that it's him against the left, the against the media and this, the other goppers. >> you know how you make dameria great again, you tell donald trump to go to hell. >> let's see, we're now going to violate the constitutional rights of citizens because of donald trump? i don't think so. >> michelle, so now it's set up that it's donald trump against everybody else, conservatives, to the the media and goppers and

everybody else. >> they keep calling him names like hit lefr. but instead of calling him names, let's talk about the actual policies, because what's happening is americans are actually liking these policies, you look at the polls and more than half of republicans think it's a good idea and a lot of americans think it's a good idea, why do they think it's a good idea? because they don't feel safe? and why don't they femael safe? it's because of obama's policies. they don't like that he's not going after religious extremism. >> prior to that, i believe the number was 30% support, post comment he went to 38% support. so michelle's right, to the american people, you may not like it, but it's resonating. >> eric, no question, i mean this message is resonating and

donald trump's front runner status affords him the ability to respond to all of this criticism. this is a controversial statement and he has the opportunity to respond to it, to explain himself and to show why those 37% or 38% of people should be more like 98% or 99%. >> i also read an article that was in the "washington post" late this week, there were voters who were going to vote for hillary clinton, but they agree with donald trump on to the muslim issue. >> that may be and that's everyone's right. no doubt that americans don't feel safe, it's 68% that say that obama's policy or the way they're attacking it doesn't mean there's not going to be an attack on the american soil and we saw that with the san bernardino attacks. and that doesn't mean we should be giving him credit, we're giving him a lot more air time than this man deserves at this

point. but we should discuss it because he could very well be the republican nominee. i think it's great that we're speaking out about it. it's not just b.b. netanyahu that's the problem. they made a debate banning him from to the country. >> this is a democrat from california, laura sanchez. if her numbers are right, listen to what she has to say. >> there can be anywhere between 5% and 20% from the people that i speak to that islam is their religion and who have a desire for caliphate and to institute that in any way possible, and in particular go after what they consider western norms, our way of life. >> so we do a little math, i'm pretty good with numbers around

a here, 1.6 billion muslims, that's 5.6 million people who want caliphate. and that's sharia law and those that do not believe in sharia law could be punished by death. >> i don't know how many she's talking to, she could have talked to ten people. but there are people who have set the sites on isis. it's a real struggle gooeps islamic terrorism and sharia law and all of the nastiness and the attacks on our way of life that come with it and it's a serious problem, and i know that the administration gets that now, i know they were late to the game approximate in certain aspects. but i'm confident we're going to fight this head on. her numbers, as a pollster, it's ridiculous to me to say that 5% to 20% of the people that i spoke speak to. do the real polls. >> i'm not getting inside her head, i the don't know if it's 5

or 500 she speaks to for that matter. how's this, even one is too many who want to use caliphate. >> the donald trump's comments, they're resonating with people who like trump, tell me about whether or not the moderate muslim community, are they going to change their view of whether or not they're going to step forward and denounce terrorism because of this comment. >> they haven't come out and really come out and blasted isis and all of these extremists, i don't think they're going to come out and say anything anymore, except maybe blast donald trump for this. but i don't see them really going out there and being the voice for saying, hey, this is not muslim, this is not what islam is, we don't see them marching on the streets when these atrocities happen . >> efinish up. >> we don't see them marching on the streets and saying, hey, this is not us. they march on the streets when

people are upset with about islam but not when slaucislam, islamic extremism is responsible for these awful tragedies. >> where the moderate muslims in this? why are they not stepping up? >> it's a great place for them to step up and speak out. but it's not just the vast masses that constitute a majority or even constitute an influential majority. it's a small number of intellectu intellectuals, it might be less than 1% that really sets the stage, the philosophical stage and the countries that support that ideology in my opinion really where it can comes from. it's not to the masses, it's the few that create and spread the ideology. >> where are the moderate muslims stepping up and confronting terrorism. >> it's not being publicized that much that moderate husband let me groups are racing money to pay for the burials of to the

san bernardino victims. there's some confusion from last week, i don't work for care, just in case. >> we'll leave that one alone. coming up, as to the terror threat grows here in the u.s., our government is giving more of your tax money to other nations to fight climate change. stic

we announced today that the united states is committing to double our public grant based adaptation investments by the year 2020. >> no need to adjust your tv. you heard john kerry right, our government now plans to double the money it gives poor nations to fight climate change. we'll go from forking over $430 million to at least $860 mill in the next few years, per year by the way. should we be more worried about protecting americans from terrorism than protecting other countries from climate change? >> it's like taking $8 million and throwing it down the drain. even john kerry said that even if we all rode bicycles and had solar panels it would not change the climate. they want to sacrifice man's life for the environment and that's why they spend all this tax money in tax subsidies that

will mean nothing to the climate. >> the professor thinks that almost a billion dollars handed over to poor countries is that big a deal. >> i'm surprised it's that little with how this country cares about climate change. but there are 195 countries that got together for this. we always act like it's just america that cares, it isn't. it's the entire world that believes in it. it's just not you guys. and the developed nations have promised to give $100 billion. the u.s. is actually doing a very small part in this. of our federal budget, only 1% goes to foreign aid. $35 billion. >> this is a big deal, this is hard earned taxpayer dollars. >> this is a lot of money, this is a lot of money, we have veterans that are homeless that we are not taking care of either or. >> but this is stupid. this is ridiculous. when we have people who are

suffering here, people who served and protected this country that are out on the streets and we're not taking care of them but we're just going to throw money at these countries so that they can fix the weather? what? >> and also john, let's not forget, we're not just talking about the $860 billion we're going to hand over as aid to countries, we still have tens of hundreds of billions of dollars of green energy initiatives of our own that we're spending tax dollars on. >> that is a complete waste. but even encouraging these poor countries to become green actually hurts them. the reason they're poor is not because they're not green enough, it's because they're not capital enough. if we would make these countries more capitalist not more green, they would be able to pay for their own measures o. >> everyone become a vegan, you know why? because of the flatulence of the

animals that produce the meet create so much green house gas, michelle. what's going on here. >> i can't even respond to that because it's so ridiculous. but to the thing is is a lot of these poor countries are also very corrupt, that's why a lot of them are very poor. so the idea that we're just going to throw money at these countries and they're going to use the money to stop global warming or global cooling, i don't even know what it is now. >> are you a vegan? >> tried it forlike three stays and i didn't like it. i'm a carnivore, i love it, i'm not giving it up. but to say that it's not these small island nations and developing countries have made it clear that with rising tides and the potential for drought -- >> i'm from the school that says the rising tide actually lifts all boats, i know that's actually in a different context.

but you say just that you're not a vegan and you wish you could go that far, but that's the whole idea of environmentalism. do everything you can to have a zero footprint, sacrifice your car, sacrifice your meal, sacrifice your life. controversy, hollywood and president obama pushing for gun control just days after the california terror attacks, but there's one celebrity who's not buying that. find out next. bolton and

biographer james kaplan. now back to cashing in. >> president obama teaming up with hollywood after the california terror attack. their goal to push gun control. . >> we can and we -- >> can and end. >> we can end. >> gun violence. >> gun violence. >> we can end gun violence. >> we can. >> we can end gun -- we can end gun violence. >> when we come together, america can end gun violence. >> now americans think that gun control is the right answer here. kurt russell. >> if you think gun control or something like that is going to change a terrorist point of view, i think you're like out of your mind, i think anybody is. i think it's absolutely insane. >> thank god there's some sanity in hollywood. michelle, your thoughts, taking guns out of the hands of inept

people? >> san bernardino is in california which has the strictest gun laws and we sea in chicago, there is tons of vuls. so taking guns away making law abiding citizens unable to protect themselves. how about we don't have open borders, that's the way to do it. >> john, what's your thoughts? >> eric, it's totally false this whole narrative that gun violence is raging in america. it's not true. since '93, it's down like 39%. and private firearm ownership has been to be up during that whole period. so don't buy into that concept that gun violence is --- >> what is it will hollywood or liberals across the border that thinks if you take the guns out of people that are expressing themselves -- >> criminals always get guns.

>> so why disarm good people. >> it's not about disarming good people. no law abiding citizen should have a problem with background checks. why can't we close the gun show loophole. >> president obama talked about this right after san bernardino. those guns were purchased legally. >> absolutely. >> legally. no matter what gun control they add to san bernardino, those idiots would still have those guns. >> the question to me has been since the san bernardino shooting, what could we have done to prevent that. what about all the other people, the week before we had a shooting at planned parenthood. nobody talkses about that. what about all the domestic terror attacks. if we can make it harder for one crazy person to get the guns, that's a success. >> but we make it easier for the crazy people to get guns.

>> they used to say that poverty created terrorism. but kurt russell's point, it's not the availability of guns that motivates islamists to go out there and shoot up holiday parties. >> it also makes the cost of getting the gun go up, which means people in poor neighborhoods who are most susceptible to gun crime, they a're going to have the guns taken out of their hands as well. that's the real argument. >> you guys are really -- >> we're right. >> i meant you were right, yeah. my bad, guns for everyone. >> see, that's the sound clip we're going to use for 2015. it was a huge 2016 for #wakeupamerica. thanks t
