7:18 pm
of country most popular radio programs laura ingram show, she is a fox news contributor, a delight to have you here. first, your reaction to the news about terry mccauliffe. a clinton friend, long time friend. and associate? >> one would think that mccauliffe having seen everything that has befall inthe clintons and associates, would not be involved in anything, criminal or untoward, i don't know what this investigation is really all about. news just broke. but, as far as political implication for hillary clinton, anything that distracts from her message, what she hopes will be a positive, pro-woman, bridge bacbring back the '90s economy message is not good, we'll see where this goes, but what this does is brings you back to '90s scandals, not
7:19 pm
just the women and all that. but others, in the clinton administration which a whole generation of americans is not familiar with. it reminds me of old home week with the clintons, all these people are connected to clinton they seem too have problems, this just one other, we'll see where it goes, but it might not go anywhere. lou: that is right. fact is that the attorney for governor mccauliffe said they have not contacted him, which also could be a source of anxiety for mrs. clinton, she said she has not been contacted either. >> remember, lou, also, in course of a vile investigation . -- criminal investigation, maybe this is something bigger about the clinton foundation,
7:20 pm
we know there are questions about tax exempt status, and so forth, there might be something else going on, subterrainian movement of justice department to get some cooperation from mccauliffe, there could be other layers to this. lou: a many-layered organization with a complex structure. and purpose, since by all reports about 10% of the money it raises has gone to -- if you will, charitable causes and good work. the instagram message talking about reliving scandals in past with women who were allegedly sexually assaulted or raped. your thoughts. >> i think it is effective, it is one short video there is a entire generation of american women who are not familiar with what happened at hands of
7:21 pm
bill cli clinton. and not just hillary, not for being an enabler, and forgiving him, a lot of people upset about, that but it is what hillary did to the women this will come back, i think trump's way of saying just try me, there is a lot more we'll throw out there. as she tries to make a populous pitch for american economic renewal, it is effective. lou: positive on polling is rising and her numbers seem to be softening. in most recent poll, same time, the establishment suddenly is rallying around donald trump, rising numbers every week, at same time paul ryan, with this interview in politico. i swear, i cannot tell if he is a frustrated priest, i
7:22 pm
cannot make him out, he is utterly, haughty, and i think just, disconnected from what is happening around him. >> i think it at some point it is curious to what is going on here. i can see time passing not a big deal, but the longer this goes on. more interview, you give, more conflicted you seem, and the party has moved on, 8 out of 10 republicans say, it is time to unify, people like romney, i think that ryan will come around, romney could have been secretary of state in trump administration, he could have had a powerful role, now he will have no influence, i don't think that paul ryan wants to go there. i don't think that will be good for paul ryan's future, voters have a long memory, if they think that you, you know
7:23 pm
sabotage trump or tried, that is not going to sit well with people, i am hopeful, i think that ryan will come around. lou: i hope your hopefulness is rewarded. because, he could make the party look so much better by himself, looking less small than he does right now. >> i think more that trump, starting to rise in polls, you will see a lot of these -- hesitations disappear. winning has a way of doing that to people. people come around the higher your numbers go. lou: littl politico made is sound like a strategy played out by paul ryan about his chances in 2020, that is the biggest bunch of poppycock that i have seen, as to a motivation, he will not be supported by anyone of substance by offending the party. >> does not help him in 2020. i don't know -- how does that bullpen him in 2020?
7:24 pm
if that is the strategy, i don't know if it is, but, that is it, that is not good. that is a dumb strategy, you will turn off more people. lou: is a lot of dumb in that town right now. >> a lot of people who missed boat, they are still on the dock, and now the passengers on the better waves good-bye. lou: adios. >> see you later. lou: vote in our poll, will trump's choice of vice president determine you vote for him. cast your vote on twitter, we appreciate it follow me on twitter. like me on facebook, and on instagram. lynches to everything at loudobbs.com. >> a traffic stop in milwaukee . it turned out to be anything but routine. catching a moment a woman decided to make a break for it by throwing her car into reverse. slamming into the squad car behind her.
7:25 pm
and actually hitting two of the officers, surrounding the car. two, the woman's passenger were injured, instead of a ticket, she now faces 45 years in prison. 45 years. >> up next, 8 years ago hillary clinton struggled to settle on a slogan, she tried, in to win. working for change. working for you. the change we need. now, now she has unveiled a new slogan. i'll tell but it in my commentary next, much more ahead. stay with us, we'll be right back.
7:26 pm

7:30 pm
and external ones, i know that slogans come and go, but when i look at where we are, we need to unify the country issue we're stronger together. lou: as you surmised, a new campaign slogan it is, stronger together. he repeated that slogan 5 times. she must believe as she repeats it enough, the divide in democratic party will disappear, and bernie sanders will suddenly drop out all of his supporters embrace her? perhaps. clinton also criticized donald trump's make america great man against slogan, perhaps hillary came up with her own slogan on capitol hill, when she proclaimed before congress, what difference does it make? that slowing know would work

right on this thing from jump street. you can almost hear -- not you, rebecca -- trying rationalize success. >> friday i'm at a national talk radio convention. hundreds of radio talk show hosts. many of whom who were in that never trump camp. now they are central belling, just like republicans are signing on with donald trump because they have to, radio talk show hosts realizing this shouldn't be close in may. he shouldn't be edging hillary clinton in four consecutive polls in may. this has the possibility of a big wind. those predict it should be close or she should win. >> two developments are coming out of this, and one of them is catherine herridge reporting on the guccifer role in perhaps testimony with the f.b.i.

at least we know there is a deal being discussed according to their reporting. at the same time, terry mcauliffe, we are told it goes back to the days of the global initiative. what do you make of it all. >> certainly terry mcauliffe and an f.b.i. investigation is not what hillary clinton is going to wants to be talking about. she'll have to be answering questions about this. close friends, close associates worked together with the children upon global initiative. so it's very bad news for her and of course as you mentioned she has her own f.b.i. investigation to worry about which has not rapped up and should be wrapping up prior to the investigation. but there is no certain end date on that either. for long hillary clinton has to be answering questions about

8:00 pm
15% say hillary will benefit from her husband's support. that gives us 100%. we do math like this day and night here. it's amazing. good night from new york. kennedy: baby, mondays are always happy when you are here. fallout from the weekend's gun slinging where hillary clinton and donald trump held an emotional shootout over the latest wedge, guns. it's hotter than a pistol and here to stay. >> hillary wants to disfarm vulnerable americans in high-crime neighborhoods, whether it's a young single mom in florida or a grand mother in ohio. hillary wants them to be defenseless.
