tv   Lou Dobbs Tonight  FOX Business  June 2, 2016 11:00pm-12:01am EDT

11:00 pm
the subtext is why isn't everybody? you and i know the answer to that as well. larry tweeted out i remember the competition saying trump would stopped it this time. hopefully prevent future attacks as well. that's all the time we've got. lou dobbs is up next. thanks for watching. lou: good evening, everybody. i'm lou dobbs. donald trump surely knew there would be days like this, a day in which the establishment brought down fury against trump attacking him from almost every quarter trying to hold onto the status quo and immense economic and political power. the establishment attacks are relentless and they began in earnest yesterday with the announcement that professional golfers association, the pga, had chosen to intervene and presidential politics and take sides. hillary clinton's side. the pga attacked one of trump's most prestigious gold properties. the trump doral in miami.
11:01 pm
the pga announced they are moving a tournament from the doral golf resort to mexico city. and there's more to take up here tonight, and we will. hillary clinton's broad side against trump was expected but president obama for two days now in full-on assault against trump? and trump had the last laugh at obama when the president, for a concerning moment, stammered. seemingly uncontrollably. >> donald trump's ideas aren't just different. they are dangerously incoherent. they're not even really ideas, just a series of bizarre rants, personal skews, and outright lies. >> we cannot turn inward, we cannot give into isolationism. that's a false comfort. and we lead not by dictating to others but by working with them as partners. lou: trump last night fired
11:02 pm
back at both. >> they have no respect for our country. they have no respect for our president. they think he's a total lightweight. she lies. she lies. she made a speech and she's making another one tomorrow, and they sent me a copy of the speech, and it was such lies about my foreign policy. >> the establishment assault on trump, we take it up with trump's national spokesperson katrina pierson tonight. also tonight, house speaker paul ryan saying in an op-ed he will be voting for donald trump. but the speaker still wouldn't say that he's endorsing trump. in fact, he wrote 14 paragraphs about the importance of his agenda before he got around to mentioning that he will vote for trump. and he gave only one reason when he did, that trump will help make ryan's agenda law. the problem ryan's agenda and trump's are diametrically opposed in a half dozen
11:03 pm
instances, we'll be talking about all of them with some of the best politicos in the country. guy benson, adrianna cohen, eboni williams and mark simone. top story the political and business establishments' war on donald trump. we've known his candidacy poses a threat to the ruling elites. what we didn't know is how hard they would try to bring trump down. take the pga tour, for example. they've decided to get into presidential politics and move a marquis tournament from trump's doral golf resort to mexico city last year. it puts profits ahead of thousands of american jobs. >> they moved the world golf championship, which used to be cadillac, a great sponsor, cadillac, and wanted it longer. they moved the world golf championships from miami to mexico city. can you believe it?
11:04 pm
[booing] >> can you believe it? so they moved, think of it, they moved the pga tour, moved the world golf championships from miami, where they're furious, to mexico city. not good. but that's okay. folks, it's all going to be settled. you vote for donald trump as president. if i become your president, this stuff is all going to stop. lou: that's not all. new york city mayor bill de blasio, the newest democrat playing dirty tricks on trump. de blasio and his cronies are looking into whether trump violated zoning laws when he closed trump towers public space for campaign events without city permission. the investigation sparked by trump's news conference tuesday, but an attorney for trump says the atrium was never closed for the news conference. it seems the political elites are stopping nothing trying in some way to damage trump.
11:05 pm
trump said he doesn't need the endorsements of the republican establishment, namely the bushes, the romney and ryan, but today house speaker ryan fell into line, saying he's voting for donald trump. however, it was far from an endorsement. although his office said, ryan's office, that it was an endorsem fox news senior national correspondent john roberts traveling with trump in san jose and he has this report. >> reporter: it was long-awaited and at times uncertain, but house speaker paul ryan announced i'll be voting for donald trump this fall, i'm confident he will turn the house gop's agenda into laws. after criticizing trump in the primary campaign, ryan said he and trump, quote, talked at great length about issues important to the republican agenda and while it's no secret he and i have our differences, we have more common ground than disagreement. the endorsement goes a step further toward unifying the republican party, freeing
11:06 pm
donald trump to focus the full weight of his campaign on presumed opponent. >> hillary is not a talented person, in fact, she's a person with absolutely no natural talent. she's one of the worst secretaries of state in the history of our country. now she wants to be our president. >> reporter: trump is trying to take advantage of hillary clinton's recent weakness against bernie sanders in california, one of a number of blue states trump hopes to put in play for the first time in decades. >> we're going to come in and work california hard, we're going to work the state of washington hard, we may even work oregon hard because we've been treated up there great. i think we have a chance. i think we have a good chance. >> reporter: to play in california and krs the nation, trump will need money, lots of money. he's quietly building a fund-raising base holding private meetings with deep-pocketed donors at campaign sites. the golden state is the nation's biggest piggy bank, no
11:07 pm
one remains skeptical how an association of trump affects business. intel ceo canceled a fund-raiser after the press came sniffing around. democrats continue to portray trump as a charletain with morals like trump university. today eric schneiderman appeared to contradict trump's claim he never tried to settle the case. >> our lawyers spoke to his lawyers and there were offers going back to forth. he settles cases all the time. >> reporter: the trump campaign says it was schneiderman who made the offer of settlement. settlement demands were rejected. the house they say it's unethical for new york's attorney general to talk about a case he's litigating on national television. donald trump said if he wins this case, he will reopen trump university. lou? lou: john, thank you very much, john roberts from san jose. turning to the democrats and specifically hillary clinton. the democratic front-runner
11:08 pm
supposed to discuss foreign policy today but her speech is was an attack on donald trump. clinton tried to paint the republican nominee as unfit for the presidency all while ignoring her own qualifications, worsening e-mail scandal and countless political missteps and misadventures. fox news correspondent jennifer griffin in san diego tonight with our report. >> reporter: her aides billed it as the counterpunch to donald trump's, quote, trash talking of america, a foreign policy speech that was also an indictment of trump as future commander in chief. >> he is temperamentally unfit to hold an office that requires knowledge, stability and immense responsibility. this is not someone who should ever have the nuclear code because it's not hard to imagine donald trump leading us into a war just because somebody got under his very thin skin.
11:09 pm
>> reporter: the first shot across the bough came a day earlier when she called him a fraud. she detailed why she believes he is unfit to be president. >> he says he has foreign policy experience because he ran the miss universe pageant in russia. [laughter] >> and to top it off, he believes america is weak, an embarrassment. he called our military a disaster. he said we are, and i quote, a third-world country. >> [booing] >> and he's been saying things like that for decades. those are the words, my friends, of someone who doesn't understand america or the world. >> reporter: trump began firing back before secretary clinton even spoke. >> the libya invasion was disgusting. you know who has the oil? isis has the oil from libya. we went in, we knocked the hell out of libya. we did all of the things with
11:10 pm
gadhafi, we did great. she ends up with benghazi. >> we know the tools donald trump brings to the table, bragging, mocking, composing nasty tweets. i'm willing to bet he's writing a few right now. [ laughter ] reporter: in fact, she was right. trump tweeted -- clinton chose san diego as a backdrop to her speech given large military community. it is also home to the navy s.e.a.l.s which she wants to remind people she agreed to send into pakistan to kill abin laden. >> imagine donald trump in the situation room make life or death decisions on behalf of the united states. do we want his finger anywhere near the button? >> no! >> making donald trump our commander in chief would be a historic mistake. >> reporter: aides to hillary clinton tell me that this is
11:11 pm
the beginning of a persistent assault on donald trump and the danger a trump presidency may pose to national security. we've also just learned that clinton may not be here in california on tuesday when the polls close because they believe that she may cross the finish line in new jersey first. they also may be concerned that she may not beat bernie sanders here. lou? lou: jennifer, thank you very much. jennifer griffin. turning to terrorism abroad. three syrian men who entered germany with a number of illegal immigrants and refugees were arrested on suspicion of planning an islamic state attack. german authorities say the suspected plot involves tuesday bombers, firearms, explosives, a fourth syrian who informed french officials about the plot is being held in france. troubling news when you consider how porous u.s. borders are. according to new census data, illegal immigration skyrocketed 57% over the past two years, at
11:12 pm
least, well, 550,000 illegal immigrants enter the country each year, a dangerous trend that donald trump promises to reverse if elected president. we're coming right back. much more straight ahead. donald trump strongly believes that the last thing america needs is another clinton in the oval office. >> hillary clinton, who lies, i mean she lies, these are crooked people, we don't need another four years of clinton. believe me. lou: katrina pierceon, spokesperson for the trump campaign joins us next. and next a rare panoramic view of one of the most famous mountains in all the world. we you owned your car for four years, you named it brad. you loved brad. and then you totaled him. you two had been through everything together. two boyfriends, three jobs... you're like nothing can replace brad.

11:16 pm
. lou: house speaker paul ryan has finally decided to vote for trump, ending what appeared to be a torturous month long decision-making process on the part of the speaker, a few complications, though, ryan breaking the news in a half hearted tweet as hillary clinton had begun foreign policy speech. in that tweet he said --
11:17 pm
. lou: well, now, there we have it. when the ryan campaign was asked about whether that was really an endorsement, a ryan adviser shot back with this tweet saying -- so what is that? donald trump took it all in stride. he tweeted -- joining me now trump campaign national spokeswoman katrina pierson. katrina, great to have you back with us. >> good evening, thank you. lou: ryan doesn't -- i'm going to say it the way i feel it. ryan doesn't seem smart enough to be so complicated. it seems like it's a very straightforward thing, endorse the man, get in line, and boost
11:18 pm
the program. what's going on? >> well, i'm with you, i think that this should have been very simple considering that paul ryan was somebody who expected everyone to get behind him when he ran with mitt romney. i'm sure the speaker had his reasons and the donors have reasons for pushing him to wait out this long but at the end of the day, just listen to the speech hillary clinton gave today. it's more of the status quo, if not even worse. unless your principles include hillary clinton as president, you have to get behind mr. trump and make america great again. lou: recent polls showing that trump now has 86% support of republican surveyed. that's a huge number, and you don't have to think back very far, a matter of weeks, perhaps a month when all of the savants, the gurus, the political geniuses are saying there's no way he will have time to bring the party back
11:19 pm
together, perhaps not the ryans, romneys at all, the bushes, the american people follow into the line of support. >> well, that's right. and this has always been a campaign about the people. mr. trump has transcended party, and he's proven that in the primary process alone. when have you thousands of independents and democrats, not to mention scores of brand new voters in the primary process, not the general yet, this goes to show you that the trump campaign has very much transcended the two-party system and focused on americans and that's why people are coming to mr. trump. lou: you know, katrina, i was thinking those people trying to think about trump being presidential, all of this. i think the way he's responding to paul ryan and to others, i have to tell you, i believe most us want to slap the dickens out of somebody, and trump is being as gracious as
11:20 pm
he could possibly be, i think that's remarkable, if you will, in the face of some of his detractors. what do you think? >> i think you're absolutely right. we can go all the way back to the beginning of the primary process where he actually signed the pledge to support the nominee, and all of the detractors that you mentioned earlier were the ones upset that he wasn't going to do it to begin with. when he did, all of the same people essentially turned their backs on them, but more importantly on the backs of over 10 million primary voters and are entertaining a third party run. mr. trump knows this is not about him, that's why he keeps saying that we are going to get this country back on track and make everything great again because this is a movement of the people. lou: it is, and these people who pass for leadership over the course of the past couple decades, they're going to have to be brought, some of them,
11:21 pm
with the napes of their next being pinched somewhat. what do you make of hillary clinton's broad side against your candidate, the nominee. and temperamentally unfit to hold office, dangerously incoherent. seems to me dangerously incoherent could be said of the last eight years with sparkling correct application. >> i think her speech was very much tone deaf for those reasons you state. but more importantly, i think this was more about california and bernie sanders than this was about mr. trump, i think she was trying to galvanize people for the election on tuesday so that she doesn't lose to bernie sanders and to show people she can be strong against mr. trump because we all know, polls show bernie sanders does better than she does when it comes to general elections. i don't think this was about mr. trump. i think she took joy into making the swipes, but what
11:22 pm
she's also done is opened the door for full-blown criticism her tenure, not just as secretary of state, but also as a new york senator because now we get to remind people that it was hillary clinton who palled around with the wall street bankers and sallie mae that contributed to a generation of students drowning in debt. lou: her complicated relationship with wall street. katrina, thanks for being with us, appreciate it as always. katrina pierson. >> great to be here, thank you. lou: be sure to vote in our poll tonight, the question is -- we'd like to hear what you think. cast your vote on twitter -- follow me on twitter -- links to everything found at loudobbs.com. a dream come true for a hungarian daredevil. watch this video as the extreme
11:23 pm
sportsman takes to the sky over japan's highest peak mount fuji. the paramotor flight took him nearly two hours as he climbed more than 13,000 feet above the mountain. he made his way over thick forest, while volcanic terrain before landing safely on the shore of the pacific ocean. quite a flight. up next, the political and business elites of this country misfire once again in their all-out war with donald trump. the latest attack from are you kidding? >> they're moving it to mexico city, i hope they have kidnapping insurance, but moving it to mexico city, and i'm saying what's going on here? it is so sad when you look at what's going on with our country. lou: so sad, and the establishment so obvious and clumsy. the intensifying attack against trump. that's the subject of my commentary next.
11:24 pm
much more straight ahead.

11:28 pm
. lou: a few thoughts now on the war against donald trump, by the establishment. the political and business elites so desperate to hold onto power that it's intensifying assault on trump and his businesses, and the establishment being obnoxiously obvious in their attacks. the pga jumping into presidential politics, moving a tournament from trump's doral course in miami to mexico city next year. now i don't know but but most golfers are going to have a reaction to that. maybe not the professionals, but the millions of amateurs all over the country. the doral has been the site of a pga tour event since 1962. 1962. and pga tour commissioner tim pinchum, part of the establishment himself, the liberal establishment, served
11:29 pm
as an economic adviser in the carter administration and when finchum says the pga decision when he claims it's a sponsorship issue. finchem is really following orders, orders from the establishment, that is the corporations that sponsor the pga and their players, and they're calling these maneuvers. they're clearly intended to follow trump's philosophy, hit back harder than those who hit you. and trump is the first presidential nominee since the early 20th century to actually take on this country's elites and the establishment. to his credit, trump didn't bow or reverse himself when the pga last fall canceled an event at the trump national course in los angeles. last july, i said we've entered a new era of partisan and ideological sanctions and embargoes and de facto establishment boycott of all things trump.
11:30 pm
we could see this coming a mile away. trump knew what would happen. how much he would be risking. how much he was likely to lose. how many enemies he would make when he launched his populist campaign for the presidency. whatever you think, trump has taken on enormous risks and threats to seek the presidency. but the desperate establishment that's now assaulting trump across all of his businesses in all likelihood has miscalculated once again, and the cost to the elites may be greater than they could have ever imagined or feared. in part because trump has made a lot of new friends in low places who have some high-minded ideas and ideals. they're called citizens like you and me, and his friends number in the tens of millions and elites are creating more opposition to the status quo and the establishment orthodoxy
11:31 pm
who now are generating threats and attacks against the one presidential candidate who has promised to restore the voice of the people, prosperity for middle class and those who aspire to it and a government who will respect that our constitution limits freedoms and securities for all our citizens. our quotation of the evening, we turn to an interesting fellow in his own right. andrew jackson, he said -- it's good to be reminded of that by at least one presidential candidate. in this instance, one party's nominee. we're coming right back. donald trump fighting a new entrant on the presidential campaign trail. >> if -- if -- if -- if we fall
11:32 pm
for. >> if it sounds funny. >> now he's going to be campaigning, and you know what? he shouldn't campaign, he should go out and do the job he's supposed to be doing, not campaigning. lou: eboni williams and guy benson take up the battle between the president and the man who would be. families come in all sizes and shapes as our next video proves, and this pet, well, a little larger than most. it's truly house broken. we're assured. we asked a group of young people when they thought they should start saving for retirement. then we asked some older people when they actually did start saving. this gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us aren't prepared for retirement. just start as early as you can. it's going to pay off in the future. if we all start saving a little more today, we'll all be better prepared tomorrow. prudential. bring your challenges.
11:33 pm
thank you. ordering chinese food is a very predictable experience. i order b14. i get b14. no surprises. buying business internet, on the other hand, can be a roller coaster white knuckle thrill ride. you're promised one speed. but do you consistently get it? you do with comcast business. it's reliable. just like kung pao fish. thank you, ping. reliably fast internet starts at $59.95 a month. comcast business. built for business.
11:34 pm
11:35 pm
11:36 pm
. lou: donald trump in california tonight, now he's questioning whether hillary clinton is fit for office. trump calling the clinton e-mail scandal a disgrace to the laws of our country. >> you talk about bad judgment. she broke federal law by putting her e-mails on a secret private server that foreign countries could easily get to and hack. i mean, folks, if anybody else but her did this, they'd be in jail two years already. i mean, honestly, she should not be allowed to run. lou: joining me townhall.com political editor guy benson. radio talk show host eboni williams, both fox news contributors. eboni, start with you, this move by the pga to move a golf
11:37 pm
tournament because it's trump's, one of his prized properties in miami, the doral, to mexico city, could they be more flagrant? >> reminds me last year when the miss usa pageant moved off television, it hurt some young ladies that doesn't deserve it. it helps donald trump, it furthers the argument that trump has that i'm so powerful, so threatening to the powers that be, by golly they'll do anything to stop me. it is helpful for trump overall. >> you would think by this time, guy, the corporate establishment, if you will, would have the sense, would have learned just exactly what eboni has said, that there's a price for their bullying. >> first of all, i'm not a fan of the escalating boycotts generally. i think it has a bad influence on society, and i agree with that part of your analysis that you gave earlier. i also think this explanation
11:38 pm
that no, this has nothing to do with trump or domestic politics. come on. please. we're not that stupid. so obvious they're doing this. moving it to mexico city is a clear troll of donald trump. he trolls it right back saying i hope they have kidnapping insurance which is a tough but fair shot across the bough. i wish they wouldn't, if they boycott it because they don't like what he has to say. just tell us. don't insult our intelligence and pretend it's something else. >> i agree with guy, just own it and man or woman up to it. lou: trump is coming across by far stronger in character and principle than the establishment because of the way they are behaving as usual. they're subverting and subversive and they are trying to be covert and not held accountable. i want to turn to the paul ryan, whatever you want to call it, announcement of his vote, eboni. >> that's what i call, it lou. i wouldn't call it an endorsement.
11:39 pm
it's so funny to me, his spokesperson is saying we're not going to engage in the word games. certainly it's semantics. we are familiar enough to know how it works. you do it in fashion and you say i am endorsing this candidate for president of the united states, and we didn't get that today. lou: you agree, guy? >> paul ryan's camp said feel free to call it endorsement. op-ed letter explaining why he'll be voting for donald trump for president within the broader context of national politics in thinking he can work with donald trump to work on some issues as fellow republicans if he were to win. we can go around and around in circles splitting hairs on the verbiage but it was endorsement. it was inevitable in my view, paul ryan, the house speaker was going do this despite misgivings. i'm surprised it happened as soon as as it did. but there you have it. >> i respectfully disagree,
11:40 pm
guy, if he wanted to endorse him, he could have done it in plain sight. if he wins, he gets to say i endorsed and supported him. if he doesn't, it would spare the egg on his face if that were the case. >> it was public, he put it in a public op-ed in a local newspaper explaining reasons he's voting for donald trump. >> voting for him, word. in the law, we call it magic words. i would like to hear endorse. lou: we will apply contative context to the op-ed. >> please, lou. lou: always exciting when we use numbers on the broadcast. 14 paragraphs from the speaker all talking about his agenda which is in almost a majority of instances in absolute counterpoint to the agenda of donald trump and one line about, well, why he was voting for donald trump. that because trump was going to
11:41 pm
make his agenda law. guy benson, eboni williams, thank you, both. >> thanks, lou. lou: a russian family with an unlikely house pet. an impossible house pet if you ask me. this is not a bear mauling. this isn't leonardo dicaprio in some retromovie. it's a 300-pound bear named stefan. he watches television with the family. he likes to be read to, plays ball, eats meals at the family dinner table. he was adopted as a three-month-old. bear has lived with the family for 23 years, and all of the children have they say he's very gentle. he loves giving what else? bear hugs. isn't that a wonderful story. up next, hillary clinton giving a big foreign policy speech.

.
11:46 pm
lou: joining me now, former pentagon official, fox news national security analyst k.t. mcfarland. great to have you here. i mean, trump is now taking even more intense fire from the establishment, the elites, business elites, political elites, you name it. trying to make him pay a price for taking on the establishment. your thoughts. >> he's getting incoming fire from both sides as they say at the pentagon. why? the democrats you expect it, but also with the establishment republicans because he's talking about breaking all the china in the china shop. he's saying the establishment of both parties screwed this up for the last 15 years. lou: you know, i know most citizens like myself, well, we were alarmed when we heard that the professional foreign policy folks would not even work for a donald trump. do they really not understand they have been the problem and if they would decline government service, the nation
11:47 pm
would be better serveed? >> they honestly don't, they think they have been brilliant. and if you look at the last 15 years of american foreign policy for republican or democrat, three lost wars, we're getting pushed around all over the world. the american military degraded and ignored our veterans. in every one of the cases both political parties establishment have been part of it. lou: i want everybody to take a look at this again, we showed you in the tease. president obama getting -- i don't know what happened to him, but he lost control of his jaw and stammered, i'm sorry? do we have it? you don't have it. could you get it? okay, thank you. we're going to get it. he stammered uncontrollabley in some sort of fit. he is not making sense on the campaign trail yet he wants to be there, what are the implications in terms of foreign policy, in terms of
11:48 pm
presidential politics to have him out there? >> here's what i look at. i think this is a lot like 1980 where reagan went up against the republican establishment and beat them at their own game and the sitting democrat president carter beat him at his own game. he challenged the conventional wisdom and inserted common sense and rethought everything. lou: by the way, i have not seen the president, never before do, this i've never seen a human being lose control of his jaw. >> if we turn against each other, based on divisions of race or religion. if -- if -- if -- if -- if -- if we fall for, you know, a bunch of okeydoke, just because

it -- it sounds funny or the tweets are provocative, then we're not going to build on the progress that we started. lou: if you were watching the leader of another nation, russia, china, whatever it may be do that. what would be your reaction? >> i think the teleprompter broke, and you can see he is so dependent on reading the words somebody else has written, he doesn't know what to say when he's on his own. that's why the contrast between that and hillary clinton and then donald trump where he just says what he's thinking. the other two, whether it's clinton or obama, they test every word, if they don't see it in front of them, they don't know what to say. lou: obama is talking about foreign policy at the same time clinton is talking about
11:50 pm
trump's foreign policy which is still being shaped and formed but is still rational and sensible. what are we to make of this -- these candidates? you know, i think the reality is that none of them are making sense on the left because they are basically all their polar star is bernie sanders because he's the energy of the party. >> one of the most absent virtues outside the beltway is common sense. the common american, common sense, it's not a common thing, that's why trump is so refreshing. he is common sense, he calls into convention the failed conventional wisdom particularly over the last 15 years. lou: and the establishment is not thrilled. k.t. mcfarland. thank you so much. up next, bernie sanders has hopes, they're getting higher in advance of california's primary. new polls give him every reason

mark, what about these surveys that show this contest 2 points in california between sanders and clinton? >> i think and materials is going to win. she is back in new jersey now. she'll be there election night. the internal polls show she'll probably not win in california. she'll make a victory speech in new jersey. >> hoik has dropped the points in california, and they are neck-and-neck. bernie sanders clearly has momentum in california and i think he will win it, which will cause a black eye for hillary clinton. even though she can afford to lose the 55 delegates, the optics of losing the biggest state is devastating. lou: the "l.a. times" out with a new poll, and you are right,
11:56 pm
it's showing sanders with a de minimus lead. 43-44%. it goes to what katrina pierson said earlier. she didn't believe the speech today had anything to do with trump, that it was all about sanders and that is what it was designed for. >> i think it was sanders. i never thought i would live to see hillary clinton lecture somebody on ethics. i went to a college that didn't teach me anything. can they investigate that. lou: millions of americans are saying, i'm suing. let's ratchet it up on the part of the establishment against trump. pga entering presidential

politics and then trying to believe it wasn't a political move. my guess is nbc and comcast had a lot to do with that because of the contract with the tournament. i don't know that, but there is a lot of the establishment in play here going after trump. your reaction. >> there is no question about it. the pga issued a statement saying this has nothing to do with politics, that this is an internal decision, and that's bogus. they are bringing the tournament to mexico. they are clearly trying to make a statement here. it's obvious for everyone to see. in america we have 94 million americans out of work. if the pga cares about americans they would have kept it here at home and offered thousands of jobs to americans. i'm disappointed in them for not putting america first.
11:58 pm
that's why donald trump is appealing some millions of americans across the country because he will put america first and he will keep jobs in the united states. lou: the pga just told america to go to hell. all of those trump supporters, and there are a lot of golfers among them, i know that for a fact. >> who better associated with golf than trump. lou: it's stunning to me they are being this clumsy. that's what they are. they have gotten obvious. >> this is reagan in the 1980s. they are going back to the same failed playbook and it will only help trump in the end. >> pga should feel proud to give americans a job. america should always come
11:59 pm
first. 94 million americans need a job. they need economic opportunity. and the pga thumbed their nose at them and said we don't care about you. we would rather make a political statement and move it to mexico. >> that's another lone we need the -- another reason we need the wall, to keep the golf tournaments here. lou: the most recent reports on illegal immigration into this country are staggering. the country is thissing for a responsive and effective leader, and that's way it's going to come down to in november. adriana, thanks for being with us. mark, great to see you. in our online poll 92% of you said donald trump is the most vetted, most investigated presidential nominee in history.
12:00 am
the subtext is why isn't you and i know the answer to that as well. larry tweeted out i remember the competition saying trump would never get to the wow, now the president says it. good night. [♪] kennedy: thank lou, and thank you. you know what i would love to watch? a presidential debate that included opposing views, wild ideas and a challenge to failing statisstatist -- rivel. in he other year, that's pretty much worked. but this obviously isn'ter other year. in 1992 george w. bush and hillary clinton graciously
