12:00 pm
the day. at 64 and 65.818108. on friday we were down nearly 400 points and we opened up this monday morning down 85. quite a turnaround. i will give it to neil cavuto who will explain exactly what's going on because i can't. neil: i'm so glad you had the memorabilia being made. it would have been ugly. that's the stuart and vince. thank you very much. a couple of big developments in the next hour. we are expected to hear from donald trump an hour from now to speak before the national guard. this will be his first public venue to reach non-to not only that hillary clinton health questions that have come up. also the comments come at the nastier comments about 24 hours
12:01 pm
prior to that. we will be getting now. we will also hear from the federal reserve. keep in mind she is one of the last to speak on interest rates before they enter the so-called quiet period. the two-day gathering in which there is a sort of nervous buildup that maybe this is the meeting, hardly a consensus that will be monitoring what she has to say. very soon i will have the remarks in the rule of thumb this you can't do anything with embargoed reminder. until she speaks. i have been here. sell everything. i'm kidding. i had in fact, we've got blake burman with the very latest on these questions about clinton's health and what we knew and when we knew it. for that matter, when the campaign knew it. reporter: the timeline is
12:02 pm
bringing renewed concerns and questions about how transparent hillary clinton and her campaign are. keep in mind there is a cell phone video taken yesterday showing hillary clinton needed to be escorted out, needed help into her van at the ceremony there. you see the video as we learned yesterday, sunday that she has a case that ammonia that was put forward by her doctor. on friday, it appears that is when the initial diagnosis was first given to clinton. the diagnosis comes friday. paragraph but this incident in a video on sunday. what happened in between there and why wasn't the media and american public alerted? the criticisms come from all places this morning a top adviser to president obama. david axelrod started a tweet off earlier today against the collar by sending out antibiotics can take care of the ammonia. but is the cure for an unhealthy penchant for privacy that
12:03 pm
repeatedly creates unnecessary problems. the clinton campaign communications your responded directly by saying the following. we could've done better yesterday, but it is the fact that the public knows more about hrc than any nominee in history. so kellyanne conway who is of course the campaign manager for donald trump or is bonded with the following by spelling out defense. they know enough about hillary that they don't like her, don't trust her. the question friday to sunday, why didn't we know anything in between. trump has reacted with restraint. speaking of clinton, i hope she gets well soon and we are expected to hear from trump an hour from now and we are told he is going to go after hillary clinton hired on the basket of deplorable's comment that she made on her day.
12:04 pm
neil: at first whenever the deplorable as i thought it was a new movie coming out. that obviously was not the case. blake burman, thank you very much. if any of this right now weighing on wall street? the thought that we would see interest rates rising sooner than expected lead to a nearly 200.200 points how often would continue globally this morning and he a little bit. hard to say exactly why. charles, what is going on? >> we've got a couple things. maybe something of an overreaction on friday. it is not about the fed raising rates 25 basis points. it's about a set or research that says there's an urgency to raise rates because they are data dependent. manufacturing data has been terrible. the last jobs report was 151,000. we provide second-quarter gdp lower. auto sales have peaked.
12:05 pm
what exactly are they looking at? if the fed were to hike rates against a backdrop, the razor thin credibility they may have certain quarters and wall street would evaporate. dennis lockhart tried to see things over and of course we've got another speech coming at 1:00. neil: with the look at all of this from the prevailing wisdom seems every time it looks like the federal reserve could reverse course and move up on interest rates the market have a tantrum and when the markets have a tantrum the fed eases that what you make of that? >> well, that is true. backing 20 about then, they have been delighting every single match or for themselves. ben bernanke said when unemployment rates were at 6.7 the fed should start raising rates. no unemployment rates are 5.9%. the problem is the fed isn't
12:06 pm
going to have any more ammunition when we go into the next recession. gross domestic investment is down. gdp about 1% in a very real concern as to what's going to happen in the future as growth keeps on flowing. neil: you've always told me if i could extend it politically to what's going on last week when i was talking to mark cuban, he was saying the uncertainty of a trump presidency append getting elected the state to resolve off. even for them it wasn't a right or left argument. it was we don't know what to make of what is coming argument. how is this hillary clinton issue and her pneumonia and questions about her health change that equation? >> look, there's a cottage industry right now saying that trump is winning or clinton is losing, the market will crash. i don't know where that came from. neil: sounds like charles payne.
12:07 pm
both of these candidates have not been running the government as of yet. the biggest problem is what we've seen over the last eight plus years. a massive amount of debt buildup and markets completely give now to central bank intervention. they can never roll this back. there's a reason why they cannot this morning because they got worried about the market drop in on friday. it's one-day drop worries aside, look out. unfortunately we won't be here for a long while until the market they otherwise. over the last 30 months the nyse is flat. this is including the fact that they've printed trillions of dollars, negative interest rate and bought up maets. very scary thought going forward. >> i should say actually the media was told with report of mrs. clinton's problems yesterday, but then the market went up today. it looks like a potential trump
12:08 pm
when his making markets go up rather than down because they know his policies are better for the economy. the tax, less regulation. neil: or they could interpret the opposite and say it looks like she's going to be okay so we have no reason to fear it. speaking about, we've are now the trump campaign has signed on as its new senior visor, foreign-policy adviser, of course the former ambassador, big republican honcho respected by democrats and republicans, but it continues more and more formerly disgruntled or at least power brokers in the party that is now aligned themselves back to charm. >> it is interesting over the last month or so is donald trump has started to rebound in the polls on social media gets softer on their criticism.
12:09 pm
woolsey is a serious minded policy person who can speak without ruffling feathers. this is a reflection of the kellyanne conway thing. let's bring in some reputable republican who have great long resumes and who aren't out there necessarily to does very chill or clinton but you argue with it now is factual from their own work areas and all philosophies. that is the sea shipping with a trump campaign wants to go rather than a whole bunch of get to go up there not necessarily with the policy shots are the resume that someone is going to have. neil: we started talking about those in hillary clinton's party who get very nervous about the way her campaign has handled her health issue another ratios and the penchant for secretiveness might take away the campaign. going after donald trump with tax records, et cetera. to back it as a result of all of this?
12:10 pm
>> well, i think it did. i think it is clear looking at the policies that the candidates in the situation our economy is in right now, first of investment from, we definitely need lower taxes, corporate tax reform, regulatory reform. mrs. clinton is promising the opposite raising taxes which is the last thing we want to do if we go into recession and bring it back to the fed. they cannot be expected to handle everything on it own. we need fiscal policy, tax reform, regulatory reform to get the economy going. neil: we are getting more details on the 9/11 episode. a spokesman saying hillary clinton never lost consciousness during the episode that got so much attention. you might have caught this video once or twice. also say mrs. clinton was alert the entire time in the car after departing the memorial event and she is perfectly fine now and that we have handled this medical episode the best we know
12:11 pm
how, but we could've done a better job of doing so. that being said, does this put the issue to bed or they're going to be caught and questions? especially in the "washington post," no conservative comes out and says this is an issue now. >> well, not just health. one of the first things we teach our kids as if you lie you have to cover it up and when you are caught, you will look bad. we've heard three separate things the last few days on what kind of illness she has. how do we even know it was ammonia? this dow continues to be on top of her about she cannot be trusted. i'd like to hear a plainspoken, tell the truth, not have to look over the shoulder. another case in point on something serious and the right is all over this for days to come. neil: couldn't hear if donald trump makes a big deal about
12:12 pm
secretiveness with health records. the media will go after him with tax records. >> this'll put pressure on both candidates to come out with medical mac -- better medical records. listen, to help them is interesting, but the parents issue in the judgment issue will be more in question and actually more of a question for the next commander-in-chief for the next leader of our country. they will put equal pressure. donald trump will come out with more details this week. i'm not sure what the hillary camp is going to do. you can hear david axelrod saying wake up from around the campaign in a certain way so you don't blow it because right now you're shooting yourself in the foot. neil: so many in the campaign cannot believe because they summarily dismissed rum. i scratch my head sometimes that the presence of many ways they think hillary should be losing by a mile. but the e-mail scandals of the clinton foundation. i am just shocked.
12:13 pm
i really think she should be losing by a mob lawyer. by the way, she had a good week last week that kind of got lost in the shuffle there. we've got a long way to go in this thing. neil: thank you very much. we will be monitoring donald trump finally in 45 minutes in baltimore getting a chance to speak for the national guard assist the haitian right now to respond to these latest developments. also expect it to hear one of their last moments to speak out before they enter the so-called one week in which she will weigh in on whether it is better not to raise interest rates sooner rather than later. she is not really keen on it. >> we see them become hawkish and that's where the market is anxious. when does turn hawkish that means something is going to change. tree into a dislike of print. in the meantime, this issue over
12:14 pm
at the deplorable comment. what you make of that? and other words, if you support donald trump, you are deplorable. you're pretty much despicable. what do you think about? they (engine revs) things about rain. like how hard it's gonna fall. (engine revs) the things it does to your parade. we've got a saying about rain, too: when it rains... it roars. the all-wheel-drive charger. domestic. not domesticated.
12:15 pm
seconds can mean the difference between life and death. for partners in health, time is life.
12:16 pm
we have 18,000 people around the world. the microsoft cloud helps our entire staff stay connected and work together in real time to help those that need it. the ability to collaborate changes how we work. what we do together changes how we live.
12:17 pm
neil: we are getting a little bit more details on the condition that when they knew what about her physical condition. she was diagnosed with pneumonia last friday but that was not discussed when she had this fainting episode yesterday to which the campaign originally pegged it to exhaustion and heat exhaustion even though it was about 80 areas. clinton spokesmen now say doctors dated no correlation
12:18 pm
between what happened in this latest episode and what happened in 2012 and an issue where she had a blood clot in her brain. but since has receded, but it comes at a time when people are trying to connect a lot of dots and the spokesman is saying you can connect all you want, bottom-line bear isn't it there. they are volunteering more medical information as the days news. this has been a big criticism in and outside the campaign. she's very secretive with this sort of stuff that they point out the trump campaign has been secretive when it comes to tax records. the back-and-forth likely will continue. nevertheless, before we had any of this, we had hillary clinton that drew the eye of a lot of republicans including donald trump. >> i said to my people i don't
12:19 pm
believe she said it. there is no way she said this. she actually did achieve it. really -- because it was said with much anger and such unbelievable anger. i think this is the biggest mistake of the political reason. you are president of all the people. 50% or 75%. >> so if it's hillary clinton's mitt romney 47% remark. let's ask former romney campaign house of our democratic strategist kevin shea said. welcome to you both. are you worried that it could be? >> there's no question about it. very interesting at a time you want to expand your base. secretary clinton goes and does something that restricts it. last week if you remember donald trump was very explicit about his outreach. he talked about school choice in education reform as a way to try
12:20 pm
to make an rest of that community. he's looking to expand his base as well he should. here comes secretary clinton where he does something so obviously wrong she apologized for it later asked to categorize certain voters to be deplorable. that is not a wise thing to do. the overriding issue is just one of trust. i think when people -- this elitist rat has woven its way through the perception of hillary clinton. this feeds right into that as i'm sure your other guests knows that is one of the problems romney had to face last time. neil: with memory serves me right, it was sad at what he thought was an unrecorded meeting of donors and party honchos, but the word got out here. the irony was hillary could have invited issues like reporters because she's been getting criticism about secretiveness so it came back to bite her. what happens next?
12:21 pm
>> the republican party and donald trump has millions of dollars in added in swing states and battleground state to remind people of deplorable comments. the clinton campaign will want to lock it back and they'll be hard pressed to do so. what is it with political candidates, fundraisers and speeches. it's half of the elect trip. it'll be more hurtful during their campaign because it goes exactly to what campaign says. there's a reason people don't like hillary clinton for trust hillary clinton. this goes right to the heart of that. what party is right to capitalize on this great gift? neil: kevin, is that from this pneumonia thing when it's an issue now? >> it goes to the trust them.
12:22 pm
both candidates have that. what is real interesting is that this elitist threat is not supposed t democratic residential candidates have. those that have had the elitist label kerry kennedy. kennedy was able to overcome it because he was likable. it is poison. my fear is that almost like the clinton campaign -- almost like hillary clinton herself is duck in quicksand. maybe they are who we think they are. there is a reason why she felt comfortable enough to task at a gate a certain number of electorate. we should be talking about a healing message of bringing people together as one that is divisive. i think this is going to haunt that campaign for the coming weeks. drain to the irony was we were talking real quickly that she would lead in some polls depending on the poll a gray area.
12:23 pm
so competitive, still tied by a march. maybe it's nothing to do. >> ascend, if i were able to predict it would be a very rich person. i do know their campaign understands that the republican party understands. this race is narrowing more so than many other six updated and that is number one. number two, to the point of her specific state and that she knowingly made in front of the press, secretary clinton needs the obama coalition to rally behind her. this is the danger of identity politics in our country. they are feeling the pressure and it's not been a good 48 hours for her. our party and nominee will capitalize this in an appropriate way to take back the hearts and minds of the very people we need to relax our
12:24 pm
nominee. neil: okay, i'm surprised he came out that way. thank you very much. in the meantime, iran is getting annoyed. unfortunately, we have this thing called video. remember here at ally, nothing stops us from doing right by our customers. who's with me? i'm in. i'm in. i'm in. i'm in. ♪ ♪ one, two, - wait, wait. wait - where's tina? doing the hand thing? yep! we are all in for our customers. ally. do it right. we are all in for our customers. it's a very specific moment, the launch window. we have to be very precise.
12:25 pm
if we're not ready when the planets are perfectly aligned, that's it. we need really tight temperature controls. engineering, aerodynamics- a split second too long could mean scrapping it all and starting over. propulsion, structural analysis- maple bourbon caramel. that's what we're working on right now. from design through production, siemens technology helps manufacturers meet critical deadlines. i think this'll be our biggest flavor yet. when you only have one shot, you need a whole lot of ingenuity. hey sweetie, how was your first week? long. it'll get better. i'm at the edward jones office, like sue suggested. thanks for doing this, dad. so i thought it might be time to talk about a financial strategy. (laughing) you mean pay him back? knowing your future is about more than just you. so let's start talking about your long-termoals... multiplied by 13,000 financial advisors. it's a big deal. and it's how edward jones makes sense of investing.
12:26 pm
12:27 pm
trying to harassment. that's what iran is saying that they constantly threaten our ships in the strait of fungus and elsewhere saying much ado about nothing. there is this video that seems too can earn a number of our ships over the past few weeks and getting closer and more dangerous all the time. undersecretary of defense speaks very well. i am looking at this and their argument has been it is you guys making a big deal of this. the defense minister saying when iranian vessels as the americans
12:28 pm
a few kilometers from them, the u.s. claims that both have come within one kilometer. we are exaggerating. would you say? >> or navy has reported the iranians have our ships around 50 times just in this calendar year. the rate of harassment is getting worse. more in 2016 then it was in 2015. it's interesting that the iranians actually increase their harassment since we included the nuclear deal. neil: i'm wondering that it doesn't take much for an incident to occur, either for someone to shoot someone else or as we had a case months back where prisoners were taken, it can get out of control. what is our policy besides issuing warnings?
12:29 pm
what do we do if they get too close? what is our policy? >> welcome an official policy is our ships at the right and duty to defend themselves. obviously there is a large amount of discretion the commanders have two decide how to react to, for example, a fast boat approaching our ships as has happened where the iranians have basically been cracked the same swarm techniques to approach our ships. we did have a case in august where one of our ships actually fired warning shots. neil: what if they weren't warning shots? what if we actually shot one of these planes down? >> they are ships that are mainly challenging us. it may come -- it may come to
12:30 pm
that. as you rightly pointed out, these are extremely dangerous challenge is because it does run the risk that at some point, even if the iranians don't intend it, they could provoke violent action and people could he killed. that is one of the great dangers. it is useful to think about why are the iranians doing this? there's several possible reasons. one is that desensitizes the united states to having iranian ships come close enough that classic military technique to desensitize the enemy. you could do it case after case then we become desensitized then if the array names actually do intend an attack, they will have a degree of surprise that they wouldn't have it we were more sensitive than on high regard.
12:31 pm
there's also the fact he iranians are humiliating by doing the clearest example of that when they captured our sailors, which was after the nuclear deal with dirty den. they captured our sailors and have been in a humiliating kneeling position in the photograph didn't put the photographs on all over the world. that is good for their diplomacy and for their domestic standing because they are defying the united states. neil: secretary comic thank you so much. wish we had more time. i do appreciate it. we are getting more word right away with hillary clinton in the medical rockers. more to come. the staff is saying she will be very forthcoming about this. the sleight-of-hand or anyone hiding anything from everyone. apple trying to shake off a lot of the iphone's admin. right now is benefiting from
12:32 pm
fears for competitors. mainly sam sun and the notes that in. that might be a big reason why it is stabilizing. john sculley is here. ex has hels simplify our e-commerce, we could focus on bigger issues, like our passive aggressive environment. we're not passive aggressive. hey, hey, hey, there are no bad suggestions here... no matter how lame they are. well said, ann. i've always admired how you just say what's in your head, without thinking. very brave. good point ted. you're living proof that looks aren't everything. thank you. welcome. so, fedex helped simplify our e-commerce business and this is not a passive aggressive environment. i just wanted to say, you guys are doing a great job. what's that supposed to mean? fedex. helping small business simplify e-commerce. before it became a medicine, it was an idea. an inspiration. a wild "what-if." so scientists went to work.
12:33 pm
they examined 87 different protein structures. had 12 years of setbacks and breakthroughs, 4,423 sleepless nights, and countless trips back to the drawing board. at first they were told no, well... maybe, and finally: yes. then it was 36 clinical trials, 8,500 patient volunteers, and the hope of millions. and so after it became a medicine, someone who couldn't be cured, could be. me. ♪
12:34 pm
12:35 pm
neil: did john allen the highest day. we're expected to hear someone's to confirm the sentiment right
12:36 pm
now. we will see about the federal reserve is expected to speak in about half an hour or so. when she does will pass along her comments because they could be the final one before the federal reserve meets next week at apple up 1.4%. stabilizing as its competitor, samsung could conglomerate responsible for the notes haven't found it had been blowing up on some people. even sandstone is saying bring it back to us that we will do debate it. we don't think it's wise for you to charge them up. obviously that has hurt sansone, but it's actually helped apple regardless of what some people think of the iphone seven already available for early ordering. john sculley, the former apple's eeo giant in his own right. that is where apple is benefiting. >> the news that this iphone
12:37 pm
has got some improvements, but the more interesting thing is introduction of some new pieces that may be relevant a year from now. neil: and buy a new phone now? >> i wouldn't buy a new phone. ushers me personally. i think they'll have a spectacular phone and i think this new air pot as they call it, which is why your list here, but we'll probably have more and more relevant as u.k. theory, the personal digital assistant that are in better. neil: maybe they make money because people have to keep i.e. in it. >> we are just starting to see some of the building blocks to what will happen next year. i don't think the announcement this year is going to be a fundamental change or for apple. apple is a great company. it will do well. i think it's going to largely be
12:38 pm
the iphone on the 10th anniversary. neil: maybe you doubt with faith in your days there and elsewhere there's so much is out of your control. but that song. all the critical rave reviews and then they have a localized to the point where the company is working with the u.s. government may give them that. how do you guard for something like that? >> you really can't. you try to do as good a job. neil: what about the checking process that this is bigger than we thought. >> i'm sure samsung was caught by surprise with this battery problem. whether they have a plan b we will have to find out. the reality is the tech world is full of uncertainties. there are cycles, times when the whole industry is booming and other times where between something big and 17 that will
12:39 pm
happen out in the future. that is just the nature of high tech. neil: let me ask you a question. it's not political left or right. now hillary clinton and her health are front and center. people would notice if he didn't make a shareholder meeting. were they scrutinize your health are watching every step. we have seen cases in the past. how big of a deal is this when the leader is being compromised, physically compromised? >> the way i look at it is i had pneumonia one time. but i tell you from experience is it just takes all of your energy. it's not that she's critically sick. it is just that at a time when she feels she's got to be everywhere, she really probably has to just lay low and have surrogate step in. neil: they say she will resume her schedule later this week. you are saying that is doubtful. >> i'd be surprised.
12:40 pm
the key thing is she's got to be arrested by the time she gets the debate. the key thing she needs to focus on is donald trump as a negotiator. he is not a debater. what do negotiators do when they're really good? they close. hillary has got to demonstrate that she knows how to close. i would say during the time that she is resting, she is smart. she knows all about the details of the policy. but she needs to do what i saw her do on cnn a couple days ago. look relaxed. she is much better in person than she is when she is in one of a large audience. true to what about a debate where you have high i.q., but maybe a little clueless with eq. donald trump is thought to have very high eq. might not have the policy position. >> it's incredibly important because most people don't make decisions on the logic of the
12:41 pm
answer. they make decisions on do i like what that person is saying? do i believe them? a hard thing for hillary if she is not a natural politician. she is tone when she gets in front of audiences, but she is super smart. she's got to relearn how to relax to show that she is a little more human in many respects. >> i would have to come through in a debate. >> absolutely. the success of her in a debate is not going to be a she's the smartest kid on this page. it is going to be, what president reagan did. step back, smile, make a joke, have little sense of humor. then she's got to learn how to close. donald is a closer. he's a negotiator. if he sees an opportunity to close, he will go in there and it could be pretty rough on her. she's got to learn the skill and not fall back on the traditional
12:42 pm
debating skills which are about the logic of the argument. your health, donald trump's help her come front and center now. your days in your capacity. did you have an obligation to give them everything they want? >> absolutely. you've got to older candidates. donald has a lot more information than the one pager that came out from the doctor, which didn't think to tell very much. since she has pneumonia, is it viral pneumonia? bacterial? a makes a difference. how does that get into other thing she has allergies and so forth. neil: john sculley, thank you very much. nice seeing you. this guy has not aged. everyone is talking about transparency, how super important ideas.

time now for fox business brief. let's talk for a moment about tesla. the opposite direction today. tesla made an announcement of a stop word upgrade for its semi-autonomous autopilot feature. the thing is they've realized more on radar than cameras. likely according to elon musk it would've prevented the fatal crash earlier in the year. not so much down 3%. a major supplier of the camera-based system. also want to take a quick look at oil and gold this time around. oil was down earlier by as much as 2.5% but it's come way back up to help docs in the process with a little more appetite for risk than we saw on friday. gold also reversed course of the session and it went the otherror way. more neil. more neil.

the national guard was sent to assist in the aid and recovery and these are serious, serious bad days for our country. the recovery efforts at ground zero in new york city, and i was there, i know what you went through. since 9/11 there are 780,000 members of the national tbaurd deployed overseas including those with multiple deployments, right now 10,000 members of the national guard are in iraq, afghanistan, and many other countries all across the world and doing an unbelievable job. members of the national guard come from all walks of life, work at every kind of job imaginable and juggle a thousand different challenges as they raise their kids, serve their states and answer the call of duty for their country.
12:55 pm
i'm given the honor of serving at your president, which i think will happen and soon we will find out. [cheers and applause] >> and if it does happen, i will pledge to give you the resources, the equipment and the support you need and deserve and that you're not getting. [cheers and applause] >> you will have a true and loyal friend in the white house, whether you vote for me or whether you vote for someone else, i will be your greatest champion. i will not let you down. i am running to be a president for all americans and i've intn specially humbled to have the support of so many men and women in uniform.
12:56 pm
[applause] >> all americans, you know what i mean. all across this country, i've met so many incredible members of both military and law enforcement community. there's nothing i've enjoyed more than the time i've spent with our service members, police officers and also our firefighters and paramedics. they embody the goodness and decency of our country. i was deeply shocked and alarmed this friday to hear my opponent attack, slander, smear, demean these wonderful amazing people who are supporting our campaign, by the millions. our support comes from every part of america and every walk
12:57 pm
of life. we have the support of cops and soldiers, carpenters and many working-class families who just want a better future and a good job. these were the people hillary clinton so viciously demonized. these were among the countless americans that hillary clinton called deplorable, irredeemable and un-american. nobody has heard anything like this. she called these patriotic men and women every vile name in the book. she called them racist, sexist, xenophobic and called half of
12:58 pm
our supporters a basket of deplorables in both the speech and interview. she divides people into baskets as though they were objects, not human beings. hillary clinton made these comments at one of our -- her high-dollar fundraisers in wall street. she and her wealthy donor all had a good laugh. they were all laughing, good, good solid laugh. they were laughing at the very people who pave the roads, i mean, and these are the roads that she with all of her security drive on. paint the buildings, she speaks and importantly all of the other functions. all functions in life including this auditorium and its maintenance. hillary clinton is an insider
12:59 pm
supported by powerful insiders attacking americans who have absolutely no political power. hillary clinton spoke with hatred for the people who make this country run. she spoke with contempt with the people who thankfully follow the rules, pay their taxes and scratch out a living for their family, a hard-earned living too. while hillary clinton lives a sequestered life behind gates and guards, she mocks and demeans hard-working americans who only want their families to enjoy a fraction of the security enjoyed by our politicians. after months of hiding from the press, hillary clinton has revealed her true thoughts. that was her true thoughts.
1:00 pm
she revealed herself to be a person who looks down when the proud citizens of our country as subjects for her rule, she views it at her rule. her comments display the same sense of arrogance and entitlement that led to violation of federal law as secretary of state, high and -- hide and delete her emails. nobody has done that before. put classified information in the reach of our enemies, lied to congress and sell government favors in excess through her foundation. it's the same attitude that explains why hillary clinton refuses to take accountability for the deadly disaster she helped to create in iraq, syria and libya. to this day, she won't take accountability for her role in unleashing and that's what
1:01 pm
happened, unleashing isis across the middle east or for putting iran on a path to nuclear weapons. and as far as isis is concerned, probably unleashing isis here. we better be very, very, smart tough and vigilant or we are going to have big problems. hillary clinton believes she's above the law,hat she's above accountability and that she is above each each and every one of you. our campaign is about giving voice to the voiceless. it's about representing the forgotten men and women of this country and they have been forgotten. i mean here to represent every one but specially those who are struggling against injustice and unfairness.
1:02 pm
i am running so that the powerful can no longer beat up on the powerless. i'm run to go take on the special interest, the big donors and the corrupt political insiders, and, of course, never forget the special interests. i am running to be your voice. hillary clinton is a voice for wall street, for hedge-fund managers, for top 10% and really the top 1% and even less than that. just look at the people funding hillary clinton's campaign and paying for her speeches tremendous amounts of money and you know who she will be representing if she ever won, which i don't believe is going to happen.
1:03 pm
[cheers and applause] >> in fact, if you look at the recent polls, the ones over the last few days, we are doing very well. that i can tell you. [cheers and applause] >> disqualifies her from public service. you cannot run for president if you have such contempt in your heart for the american voter and she does. you can't lead this nation if you have such a low opinion for its citizens. hillary clinton still hasn't apologized to those she slandered. in fact, she hasn't backed down at all. she's doubled down on campaign conspiracy content and if
1:04 pm
hillary clinton doesn't retract her comments in full, i don't see how she can credibly campaign any further. let's be clear. these were not offhand comments from hillary clinton. these were remarks not at all but given in an interview and probably in a number of interviews. these were lengthy planned and prepared remarks. it was perhaps the most explicit attack on the american voter ever spoken by a major party presidential nominee. total disrespect for the people of our country. clinton was using a very deliberate page from the democratic play book with one of the names, those names --
1:05 pm
really, in order to scare and i mean trying seriously scare the amount of voting for change. we are bringing change. she can't bring change. she's been doing this for 35 years. she now talks about change. there's no change. it's going to be more of the same, only worse, it's going to be four more years of barack obama, only worse. she just took it to a whole new level by applying it to tens of millions of people. she used the vial words in order to intimidate citizens out of seeking government reform and there will be reform. there has to be reform. people who want their immigration laws enforced, we have no choice, we have to do that, and their borders secured are not racists, they're patriotic americans of all
1:06 pm
backgrounds who want the jobs and families protected, people who warn about radical islamic terrorism are not islamphobes. they are not. they are decent american citizens who want to uphold our tolerant values and keep our country safe. people who support police and who want crime reduced and stopped are not prejudice and are not bad people. [applause] >> they're concerned and loving citizens whose hearts break any time an innocent child is lost and often times killed to preventive violence.
1:07 pm
hillary clinton doesn't have to worry about sanctuary cities or jobs moving overseas where so many are moving. she's protected from her own policies. the policies of hillary clinton have produced failing schools, shrinking incomes and the tragic povoerty and jobless inner cities. our campaign are dedicate today changing policies to make life better for all americans. [applause] >> we are the campaign of school choice. we are the campaign dedicated to improving economic conditions for every african american and
1:08 pm
hispanic worker. and we are doing amazingly well with african american and hispanic workers. you've been seeing that over the last week. we are the campaign that will deliver a government of by and for the people. this change agenda includes a new military policy. we are going to put the failed policy of the past, and there are many, behind us, ideally way behind us. we will empower our generals to do the job that they were hired to do and that begins with the feeding and destroying isis. [applause] >> thank you.
1:09 pm
instead of endless wars, we want a real plan for victory. [applause] >> we will abandon the policy of reckless regime changed favored by my opponent and we will instead work with our allies to advance the core national security interest of the united states. america first, remember that. america first. [applause] >> my plan calls for a major rebuilding of the entire military and the elimination of the -- we have to do this so quickly, it's a disaster, of the defense sequester. it is a disaster. [cheers and applause]
1:10 pm
>> have no choice. it is a disaster. it's called depletion. we have been depleted as a military. we can't let that happen. the greatest men and women on earth but we have been depleted by what's taken place. in this rebuilding, we will provide our national guard with the best modern state of the art equipment in the world far none. [applause] >> the natiol guard is often the first and the last line of defense for our people. you were there when the hurricanes and floods and tornadoes strike, always amazing me, the courage, the care, the love that you give, amazing. and the danger is beyond and you
1:11 pm
were there to protect civilians in times of unrest and you are there to respond to every natural disaster. you deserve a government that recognizes and honors your contribution and that ensures you how the resources you need to get the job done and to get the job done right. [applause] >> right? in a trump administration, the national guard will always have a direct line to the oval office, and i mean, direct. [cheers and applause] >> you will have an administration that never loses sight of the vital contribution
1:12 pm
and you will have a president that speaks up for the national guard at every single turn. [cheers and applause] >> the incredible members of the national guard have sacrificed life and limb for our freedom, safety and our country. we will never forget our heros, their families and the ones they've left behind. our gratitude is and will be ever lasting. we will protect those who protect us and we will follow your example of unity working in common purpose and for a common cause. we will be one people under one god saluting one american flag.
1:13 pm
[cheers and applause] >> we will rebuild our military and our country. we will make america strong again. we will make america safe again and we together will make america great again. thank you very much, everybody. god bless you. neil: all right, you've been listening on donald trump speak of hillary's remarks.
1:14 pm
half of them are deplorable. that was donald trump to remind people, that's what she thinks of you and keep pounding her even though he wished her well as she battles pneumonia. andy is with us, andy very big and backer of mitt romney, cke restaurants ceo, you were catching a lot of this, he seemed to getting his footing and picked up in the polls and narrowed on battleground states, i guess everything is coming down close the -- >> paced very well and articulate, consistent, very presidential, started off asking -- making complementary comments about her health trying to say,
1:15 pm
he hopes she recovers and going in the comments that really were the issues which were about the basket of deplorables. neil: she's been secretive on medical records and trump tax records. >> the tax record thing is -- there's two things that are important that people don't talk about. if he release it had tax returns while under audit every day the new story would be another issue from the tax audit letter. it wouldn't about poverty, it wouldn't be about foreign policy, it wouldn't be about how we fix the economy, the next issue in donald trump's tax returns. neil: he's hiding something. >> the last thing the irs wants you to negotiate with them in public. they don't want you to release
1:16 pm
the tax return and they feel pressured -- neil: much to do about nothing. >> terminate the audit, wrap it up and then the tax return goes out. so mitt would be right or wrong but i think he's wrong on this one. neil: andy, thank you very much. you were noticing double earlier gains. why you might ask, not just andy speaking and reassuring everything is okay, but we are getting comments by fed who is indicating that might be now is not the time to hike rates. that's maybe overinterpreting that. peter barnes has had a chance to look at the remarks very closely. peter, what are you hearing? peter: making dubbish comments and urging prudence in any future rate increases.
1:17 pm
quote, this risk management in today's new normal, new economic normal cancels prudence in the removal of policy accommodation. she goes onto talk about while the economy has shown gradual progress, there's still slack in the labor markets and she says, quote, in the presence of uncertainty and absence of pressures, it would unwise for policy to foreclose on the possibility of making further gains in the labor market by raising rates. she's still worried about developments overseas about the fallout from brexit and she says, finally, i look foward to assessing the devolution in the data in the months ahead for progress toward our goals bearing in mind these consideration. for her a september rate hike is off the table. there's a meeting just before the election in november. no one expecting the fed to do anything then and then there's a meeting in december. back to you. neil: peter barnes, the markets
1:18 pm
are liking what they are hearing here. the fed might be losing some credibility in the middle of all of this, what do you mean? >> i don't know if the fed has a lot of credibility. they haven't been right about too much, but the fact of the matter is there's no way on god's green earth the fed was going to even consider raising rates in september. look, the fact of the matter is, i know the fed is not politicized but the fact of the matter is, donald trump gets elected, janet yellen loses her job. and i hate to break it down to such brass tax like that right away, the fact of the matter is rates are not going to be raised in september. that is one reason. the other reason is the data
1:19 pm
frankly stinks and if we are at a 4.9 unemployment, data enough that we have a strong economy and we should be raising rates to cool it off a little bit. it is just one of the things that i wrote about in an op-ed that the fed doesn't have any credibility -- neil: in other words, it's falling behind the curve and if you are this is the stuff to go ahead and measure and you don't, you lost whatever street credit you have? >> exactly. i think we have seen that over and over again with central banks around the world and the federal reserve being at the top. neil: dan, ewe know what i worry about -- not worry but i can always see a pattern to this, just when they're incline to
1:20 pm
hike interest rates and resume what it started, reversing the cycle, it will always find excuse not to continue and usually it's a market tantrum, yet they can always come up with the reason to reverse that course. again, whether you agree with that posture or not but that the markets rule the day and that could be a slippery slope, can it? >> it is and the markets do rule the day. ting markets being up today if the dubbish tone of one fed president is the reason. it goes to show just exactly how fragile the markets are, it goes to show the real false positives that obviously must be in the markets if they are so dependent upon not having a quarter of one per.
1:21 pm
25 basis point increase, it really goes to show how fragile the markets are. i don't think that's good. i think that confirmses what myself and a lot of other people have been saying about the real markets. neil: you wonder whether the markets know that their bidding can get the fed, you know, holding and they might just play this tantrum out every time it looks like something -- like a rate hike could happen. >> they certainly know because that's been the case for the last six years. neil: yeah. >> that's for sure. neil: you were way ahead of it. dan, thank you very much. for those of you just joining us now, we have given some of those gains, a noted dove, has
1:22 pm
apparently indicated that she has not changed her mind. the fed among those saying, wait a minute, things have picked up a little bit but still considerable slack, prudence dictates, maybe, we acknowledge that which could indicate that she is not in the club that calls for raising interest rates. there you have
1:23 pm
1:24 pm
1:25 pm
neil: all right, we surrendered about half of those gains, almost all of them from when the markets -- dubbish governor is in decline of joining governors that would like to raise interest rather than later. but among those now saying, you know what, there's still enough stock in the economy that we are not moving. market celebrated
1:26 pm
that, 100-point gain to 90-point gain and trailed to 120-point gain. what's going on here. charlie thinks he has the idea and judy and emily, director of polling at the cato institute. what do you think is happening? >> incredible confusing situation what the investors are doing right now. the average retail guy is out. here is what i think is happening. the market knows that the economy is not a 4.9 employment economy. if it was a 4.9% unemployment economy you can't have near zero interest rates. any time you say we are going to raise rates, guess what, the market goes down. every time you say no we are not going the raise rates, we are going to put it off, it goes up. i believe that janet yellen and this is where donald trump's on strongest ground. janet yellen wants -- there's one undeniable achievement to 6
1:27 pm
and 18 plus. they don't want to screw this up. i know the market is scare to death of a donald trump presidency. when hillary clinton gets sick and he looks like he's going to win, sell. i think that's why you think the market give up some of the gains. neil: overwriting what is -- >> the economic plan is good but the market is scare to death of him. neil: judy, what do you make of that? [laughter] >> i want to talk about the speech that trump just gave. it's interest to go me that he would be picking up the crumbs instead of serving a pot of dish she gave to him with the health fiasco, maybe that's a miscalculation on his part since that's what everybody is talk about today. neil: no one is talking about his taxes and everybody talking
1:28 pm
about her medical records and i'm wondering what that tells you. >> well, i think the candidates have learned that they can get away with this secretive nature. you know, releasing tax records, medical records used to be routine but we have -- we are living in this environment where this has become more secretive. neil: i guess i wasn't clear. emily, i will take it up with you, the notion that this has helped donald trump because now medical records are deemed for urgent and maybe more useful right now than tax records, what do you make of that? >> yes, it's taking the emphasis off of his tax returns and we are talking about hillary clinton's health, volatility, uncertainty and the markets don't like that. but to your earlier point about what the markets are telling us about the election, forecasting models of the election based on economic indicators like labor participation rate all tell us that a republican should be winning this november. donald trump should be winning
1:29 pm
but he's not. thus far we have not seen him really pull into the lead in a systematic way and so that's what's interesting is that the economic indicators say that a republican should be winning but the markets don't trust donald trump. neil: maybe the market and every time with hiccups it might be sensing the unknown with the donald trump. >> sure. neil: and when that seems to just come and all of a sudden looks like he has a shot, they fear, right? >> yeah, it's hard to sort of generalize about markets. neil: a little bit of uncertainty. >> two overwriting themes of stocks lately. take out corporate earnings, whether the fed is or isn't going to raise rates that will move the market and i'm telling you, whenever it looks like donald trump is going to be president or hillary clinton is not going to be president markets go down.
1:30 pm
all you have to do is look at the reaction to what was going on when james comey looked for at least a few minutes like he was going to indict hillary clinton. the dow started tanking. he wasn't, bingo, it went back up again. i'm not saying i agree with that. i don't want to get ten thousand tweets at me that you hate donald trump. i like his tax plan. neil: i usually get them. >> i like the tax plan, he's an unstable states that he's an unstable force. neil: we are following the market. affable a turnaround from the big jump with had, they go into the so-called quiet period and for the next week or so and decide yea or nay. that is increasingly looking like a nay but you never know. now a former cia director

1:35 pm
coupled with her battling pneumonia and whether her staff was honest about that propelled donald trump in ways that perhaps he alone couldn't do. there is the issue of party powers in and outside of the democratic and republican parties that are joining his camp, including former cia director james woolsey, name ad senior advisor to the trump campaign. he joins out of washington. director, good so see you. >> good to see you. neil: what is going on because there are many still in the foreign policy community still leery of donald trump. how do you win them over, win those of either party saying he would be a lose cannon? >> i don't know. my contribution would be if asked to advise on the substantive issues, intelligence and national security and defense budgets and so on, and i'm not the right person to politically figure out how to get people to sign on to things. neil: okay.
1:36 pm
because you are in this advisory role, obviously wanted to address issues you outlinedded. many of them,ing aing as you knt feel he would heed your advice anyway. you feel differently? >> i don't know. i worked in two pains in my life. i'm a scoop jackson, joe lieberman democrat. when i was in law school i founded at yale law school, eugene mccarthy for president and john mccain, i'm a an old friend. i'm not who anybody would turn to advice on those subjects. neil: go back to the issues as you see them. should he be elected president, you have spoken by global isis threat, terror threat, everything else that happened here, he has already said he would upon becoming president have his top generals, 30 days,
1:37 pm
to develop a plan to eradicate isis. how doable is that? >> i don't know but it's, i think worth trying because there is a lot of expertise in the government and people, generals some civilians who were in the government and have been fighting terrorists for a long time, that could help put something together. if it was a overall strategy and not, didn't have to be something extremely long and detailed, think with the right people, you could make very good progress on it absolutely, in a month or two. neil: you know, ambassador, he did before that as, donald trump before the national guard association talked about it is high time we build up our defenses. now we spend already in excess of half a trillion dollars a year on defense. do you think we need to spend significantly more? >> yes, and i think something on the order of 4% of gdp is right.
1:38 pm
our defenses run down a great deal. president obama let the nuclear capabilities run down. don't have nearly enough ships i don't think in the navy. the readiness of our land forces, army and marines is nowhere near where it should be. if we're going to carry a heavyweights in terms of persuading people to do things in international affairs, teddy roosevelt had it right, speak softly but carry a big stick. we have to have a big stick and we don't have one now. the stick is getting very chopped up. neil: all right. we'll watch closely. ambassador, thank you. >> good to be with you. neil: all right, a lot has been made of this economy and whether there is slack as a famous fed governor now outlining her case to reporters is saying but if there's slack, that generally means there is not a lot of pent-up activity. there is not a lot of buying going on. the former jcpenney ceo why that might be and what retailers have to do to address that after

1:41 pm
there, trying to understand a dow that had been up close to 200 at prospect of interest rates will not go up right away. all right, ashley, i'm sorry i had to do your job. maybe you're aware of other things going on, buddy? reporter: i'm standing here. get no cue, i'm like, i'm looking at screen, saying, that looks just like me. markets moving higher, guys. thanks to the fed. this time the fed head says yes, we can wait to raise the rates. and markets love it.
1:42 pm
it's a very specific moment, the launch window. we have to be very precise. if we're not ready when the planets are perfectly aligned, that's it. we need really tight temperature controls. engineering, aerodynamics- a split second too long could mean scrapping it all and starting over. propulsion, structural analysis- maple bourbon caramel. that's what we're working on right now. from design through production, siemens technology helps manufacturers meet critical deadlines. i think this'll be our biggest flavor yet.
1:43 pm
when you only have one shot, you need a whole lot of ingenuity. neil: we have a lot more coming from ashley webster from the new york stock exchange. i love him but things happen. meantime we told you about this move earlier today where a federal reserve district governor more or less telegraphed if you think i will join these others saying rates should go up sooner than later, forget about it. the sentiment is beginning to change. probability of a september rate hike next week it looks increasingly unlikely. now at 15%. before miss brainard's comments, it was 21%. friday, at 24%. increasingly betting interest rates would go up sooner rather than later has now been pushed back. what to make of that and effects
1:44 pm
on the economy, former jcpenney ceo, allen questrom with us. >> neil, nice to have you back. your smile face is appreciated by those at fox and those that watch you all the time. makes a big difference in our day. neil: you're guaranteed not a single tough question as a result of that. in all seriousness, what do you make of miss brainard, despite some of her hawkish colleagues now is not the time to raise rates? is that benefit to consumers and how do you see it playing out and for retail sales in general? >> it will certainly benefit retailers in the market but the problem is we had the fed governors talking in all different places. every time one talks is causes the market up or down. one day it will start to go up. they should stick together and wait until the 21st september meeting to all speak with one
1:45 pm
voice. it really makes the market crazy. neil: a lot of people are worried too that they're letting the markets do the bidding. in other words if they have a selloff like on friday, that the markets are deciding this and not economic fundamentals. what do you make of that? >> i think that's right. i think it is very difficult for central government to organize and control things. i think they're doing more harm than they're helping. i'm not an expert on that. i do think if they just speak with one voice it would certainly be more effective and helpful. neil: that is a very good point there. you know a lot about consumers. obviously you're one of the best reads of it anywhere. i want to pass along a conversation i had with a family member whether he was going to buy one of these new iphones. he said, why should i? i don't see a reason to spend money on something that i really don't badly need. he is not necessarily a cheap person and i'm seeing this play
1:46 pm
