with 40-year-old allegations that he denies, then you have got dog jones who openly admittedly embraces the worst i kinds of child abuys, the murder of children. that's why people are going to vote for roy moore, i predict. gregg: we have a lot more straight ahead with special coverage of president trump's:make america great again rally in pensacola. good evening. i'm gregg jarrett in for lou dobbs. we are moments away from the make america great again-style rally. no mention of candidate roy moore in the president. prepared remarks. fox business corresponds yernts hillary vaughn is at the pensacola base center.

good evening, hillary. reporter: we did get a sneak peek of what's to come in president trump's remarks in just a few moments. he's going to have fun with the speech and not necessarily going to stay on script. he's going to double down on his agenda and talk to the working-class voters and tell them the issues he wants to get through. his endorsement of republican senate candidate roy moore, saying that they need that republican seat to get that agenda through, and that's what today is about. you can see the crowd getting riled up. a lot of people here getting excited to hear from the president. but really, a lot of this is going to be the greatest pitch

we have heard from president trump on the campaign trail. a lot of people here went to his rallies when he was running for president. now they are here to hear about those issues again. gregg: joining me to talk about it, matt schlapp, chairman of the american conservative union. this is going to be a long speech. matt: there are some home runs. i don't think anybody knows exactly what he will do. i heard a white house spokesman saying he won't be touching on the alabama senate race. i don't know if you can be so sure. gregg: there is nothing the president hates more than being predictable and having people tell him what he's going to do or not going to do. the media saying it's not in the speech and he won't talk about moore.

if i know the president by habit, he will do just the opposite. matt: that's probably exactly right. it's the spontaneity of donald trump and the idea he isn't overly scripted is one of the most of likely features of him as a politician. it gets him into trouble sometimes before it engages the american people because they think the president is speaking from the heart to them. gregg: how much does he love these venues, speaking before a cheering crowd? matt: donald trump loves people. he's a high-energy guy, he moves at a fast pace. he talks at a fast pace, and i think he gets a lost energy from reconnecting with people. a lot of presidents get stuck in the bubble, they get stuck in the rose garden. and they don't get to talk to real americans.

this president is trying to punch out and talk to people as much as he can it's almost like a tonic on his soul. gregg: members of the never trump conservative crowd have been vocal against roy moore. does that just -- will that sort of ager roy moore's base and cause them to get out in greater force tuesday? matt: i think the never trump self-described conservatives eventually, they can't continue to be never trump when trump continues to do the right thing over and over again. there are conservatives who that have concerns with judge moore. voting is a personal thing. they will decide what to do between now and election day. there are a lot of conservatives who say i will vote for judge

moore because the supreme court is at stake, and we can have an opening come january or february. just because i put lever for judge moore, it doesn't mean i think he's a great representative our values. they will be having another election alabama in a few short years. votedders are struggling but they don't want to hear from d.c. politicians about what they should comes right after the resignation of senator al franken of minnesota. there were a myriad of accuser. the photograph him appearing to sexually abuse a woman, yet he takes to the floor of the senate in which some describe as a d

disingenuous speech. this isn't the sign of a remorseful man, is it? matt: i thought the part that was the most of telling, mr. franken's soul and character. this is a moment of extreme hugh nil yaition, yet with pride and arrogance he went on a blistering attack against the president. thee believe people like al franken believe the crew of said to tear down a legitimately elected president in donald trump justifies almost anything they say or have done. and the fact that he doesn't feel the shame and remorse for having humiliated people he should have respected tells you the people of minnesota could do a heck of a lot better. gregg: i wrote a column for fox

news.com titled "robert mueller and his biased team of prosecutors must go." matt: i lead your piece. the piece i finds really interesting is this idea you can like or not like mueller. i have plenty of friends who say bob mueller will do the honorable thing. the jury is out. but there is no dispute he pulled together some of the most of hateful never trump type lawyers who have a political ax to grind against the president. and there is a veal question. should the attorney general do something, even if he doesn't should count investigation, shouldn't there be a group of non-partisan lawyers -- before it way, there are a lot of lawyers in the country -- they could come together and give the

american people a fair read on what happened with russia conclusion. nobody is going to respect the prosecutorial judgment of lawyers who are never trumpers. gregg: on the right-hand side of your screen, ron desantis is speaking. he has been very critical of the special counsel's investigation. and the players involved in it. he -- does there need to be an investigation of the investigators here? because of their blatant agenda? i think andrew wiseman, the lead prosecutor in the case, he has a track record and history that is notorious. he has been accused of threatening witnesses and hiding evidence. there he is at hillary clinton's election night party.

this is a guy who may decide whether or not charges are brought against president trump and he's at trump's opponent's rally. think about this. matt: the attorney general with a fair reading of the guidance at doj recuses himself base's involved with the campaign. yet mueller hires people who are going adjudicate this issue who were involved in the presidential campaign for hillary clinton and it's okay for them to be involved in the investigation? i think the guidance was trying to say d.o.j. is somehow a non-partisan independent entity that has to have the full faith and credit of the american people. if you are going to put these hacks in there, in this case hillary clinton supporters with an ax to grind against donald

trump, and they are making the decisions on the investigation, what i want to see happen is them to come up with what they see as the wrongdoing conclusion alone. if they can't find it, do the honorable thing. shut the book and let the country move forward. >> is there only one fbi agent at the fbi named peter strzok? he turns out to be the guy who signs the papers that launches the investigation into donald trump. then he joins mueller's team as the lead investigator. is there only one guy at the fbi? should the email investigation of hillary clinton be reopened and reexamined because there is a pretty good argument it was corrupted by peter strzok who was writing these anti-trump

virulently so texts to his girlfriend who is an fbi lawyer, also on the mueller case and the hillary clinton case, and supported hillary clinton. matt: i think that's exactly right. doj is looking at this barbarous bro see diewrs planned parenthood was involved in when they were selling baby parts. i actually think the country can't move forward to believe that there has been fair justice given. when they realize -- when mike flynn has a charge of being dishonest to the fbi, and hillary clinton was dishonest to every agency in the government including 6 or 7 investigations to congress. and about the reason for benghazi, it never ends with them.

it doesn't seem fair when she can get away with lying and have nothing happen. glenn: she doesn't remember anything, don't you know. she was interviewed by fbi agents days before she was cleared with comey. and she said "i don't call" 39 times. she did recall her name and date of birth and that was about it. matt: this is a problem going back to jim comey which i don't think a lot of people understand. jim comey always described as a republican non-partisan is just not accurate. i have a feeling someone is about to enter the stage. gregg: here is the president of the united states. it looks like a packed indoor stadium venue. the pensacola bay center.

the president is expected to speak for 30 minutes and talk about what has been achieved during his first year in office. he's expected to deliver a half-hour speech. but trust me it will be longer than that because the president's speech may time out to be a half-hour. but he has the tendency to throw in a lot of tories and anecdotes. he ad-libs quite a bit. here he is with a crowd people who are supportive of him. and florida helped elect donald trump to the presidency. so the president, the big question a lot of people are wondering since pensacola is at the border 9 miles from alabama, and tuesday there is a special election to fill the vacancy once held by jeff sessions, now the attorney general, whether the president will give a

full-throat endorsement of roy moore. you can bet there are a great many people from alabama in this crowd crossing the bored and traveling a short distance to see the president of the united states. let's listen into the president. president trump: thank you, everybody, thank you. if you think this crowd is big. you should see right now what's outside. congratulations. hello pensacola. what a place! right here on the emerald coast, right? the emerald coast.

in the great state of florida where we had a tremendous victory, didn't we? [cheers and applause] we are joined by many, many people in the military and great american patriots. thank you very much. you remember the campaign, i said let me begin by wishing each and every one of you a very merry christmas. right? [cheers and applause] and i can think of no better christmas present for the american people than giving you a massive tax cut. that's what's happening. and your senate and house hopefully very shortly will have those approvals. and you will be paying a lot

less tax. so congratulations. i hope. they have to vote and i think they will. i can't wait to sign that tax cut great for so many, but great for the middle class. we'll put it into law. we'll cap off an incredible first year in office. there has been no first year like this or at least just about no. i think the answer is no. but i have to be very accurate because of the fake news back there. [cheers and applause] [crowd chants trump trump trump] >> if your campaign for the presidency we defied the

pundits, the politicians and special interests because ours was a movement of the people. and it really was it was a movement of you, it was a movement of the people to make america great again. it's happening. it's happening. by the way, how are your 401ks doing, not too bad, right? over the weekend i was in new york city. and i love to say hello to our folks in uniform, whether it the the military or law enforcement. we had people backstage. i always want to take my time. a man comes up. he was a police officer in new york city. first time anyone said this to me. he said, mr. president i wanted to thank you. my family thinks i'm a financial genius. my 401k is up 39% in 9 months.

i think it's going to be very hard for somebody to beat us in a few years. can you imagine we are only talking about a few years. all you have to say is with us it goes up, and with them it goes down. and that's the end of the election. right? everyone is doing well and it will be a lot better. we'll do better and better. we are going to make our country great again. and we are look at our country as america first. america first. [crowd chants usa] so tonight we are going the speak straight to

the american people and cut right through the fake news media. right through. we are going to speak the plain truth and really the truth that you just want to hear. you have to hear. they don't want to hear. before it way, did you see all the corrections the media has been making? they have been saying sorry. they never apologize. maybe that comes with being the president, i don't know. i don't know. they have been apologizing left and right. they took this fraudster from abc, they suspended him for a month. they should have fired him for what he wrote. he drove the stock market down 350 points in minutes. which by the way tells you they really like me, right? when you think of it. you know what he cost people?

i said get yourself a lawyer and sue abc news. true. and then cnn apologized just a little while ago. thank you cnn, thank you so much. you should have been apologizing for the last two years. true. true. [cheers and applause] what a group, what a group. but since the election, and they are not going to argue with this, we created 3.2 million new jobs. factories are coming back to our country. you know we have factories pouring back into our country. did you ever think you would hear that. i used to tell you that's going

to happen. now there are consequences when companies close up their factories and make it in another country and sell it back to our country. the consequences are getting very steep. and they are going up. there is no more of that stuff. in november alone you saw this today, we added 228,000 jobs. i watched these anchors this morning. they were devastated. what's going on. and honestly we have a long way to go. we are going to do much better than this. including another 33,000 new jobs in manufacturing. right? hispanic unemployment is the lowest ever record. any has panics here? any hispanics? you have guys are great.

remember, they weren't going to vote for me because i am going to build the wall. but they want the wall, too. they want security. [cheers and applause] we are going to have the wall, don't worry. [crowd chants build that wall] they want security. how about the cuban population in miami. we have cubans here tonight. good. the number 86% in favor of trump. a tremendous percentage. total unemployment is now at a 17-year low. think of it. not bad. not bad after 10 months. only going to get better.

listen to this one. this is one of the most of important because it's all psychological to a large extent and that's what creates greatness. consumer confidence is at a 17-year high. think of that. it was not like that in your last administration. economic growth last quarter surged to 3.3%. you know where it was, right? when we started you know where it was? 3.3% and it's going a lot higher. i used to hear you will never hit 3, you will never hit 2.5. if we didn't have the hurricanes last quarter we would have hit 4% and everybody back there would have said that's impossible. we had a couple of hurricanes. you heard about it.

the stock market is hitting an all-time high record for another -- think of this, 86 times since election day. 86 types. it hit a record. 86 times. and we are going to keep it going. and then you look at all of the money you folks are making. i wish i could take 10% or 5%. but you are not going to do that. your pensions are getting bigger and bigger. your pension funds, all of those things are happening. wait until you see what we are doing with healthcare. wait until you see. you will be happy. not the obamacare nightmare. not obamacare nightmare. it's not that nightmare where your premiums are a disaster.

right? they are a disaster. we have it going. you watch. we have good things happening with respect to healthcare. and the taxes are part of it. we'll see what happens. right after taxes you will see what happens. with taxes something great is going to get announced. we are getting rid of the individual mandate, that individual mandate. where you pay a lot of money for the privilege of not having to have insurance or healthcare. so you pay for the privilege of not getting. isn't that a wonderful thing? and we are going to repeal it. since the election we created more than $5 tria $ -- created 5

trillion in the market alone. and we are not including real estate. and we are finally rebuilding our country, defending our citizens, and fighting for our great american workers. we are putting america first by renegotiating trade deals. we are renegotiating nafta and renegotiating our horrendous deal with south korea. i kept you out of the tpp which would have been a total disaster for you and everybody else. and we are making individual deals with these countries. when you get tide into 12 countries or 22 countries or 18 countries, you are stuck. if you have 16 good ones and two bad ones, you can't get out. when you have a deal one-on-one, nice simple deal.

we have a deal with japan or south korea or however it may be. if they don't treat us right, we send them what is called a letter of termination. these people say, tpp. all these countries tied in, you can't terminate. you are tide into the good ones. so you can't do what you have to do. so you send out a letter of termination. you give them a 60-day notice or 30-day notice or 6-month notice. they then come back because we are the big piggy bank everybody likes rock. they come back and say can we negotiate and we make a better deal than we mad in the first place. but you can't do that when you have many countries tied in. i call it a spider's web.

there are bureaucrats and politicians who don't want to see things change because they made a fortune. areas around washington, d.c. is the richest area. we have five areas that are among the richest in the country. that's because everybody is making a fortune and people outside of that area are paying for the money they are making. they like things the way they used to be. they don't like it so much now, though i must tell you they are doing well also. their stocks are going up. i don't know if there is anything i can do to prevent it for those people. but they call themselves the resistance. do you see the signs, resist? resist? i love these guys.

blacks for trump. i love you. i love you. i love you. by the way, now that you bring it up, black homeownership just hit the highest level it's ever been in the history of our country. >> oh, these resisters resist. hillary resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the election in a landslide. >> [cheers and applause ] >> president trump: but do you know what they're really resisting? they're resisting the will of the american people. that's what they're resisting.

>> [crowd cheering ] >> look, its been proven we have a rigged system, it doesn't happen so easy but this system, going to be a lot of changes. this is a rigged system. this is a sick system from the inside and, you know, there's no country like our country, but we have a lot of sickness in some of our institutions and we're working very hard. we've got a lot of them straightened out, but we do have , we really do. we have a rigged system in this country and we have to change it it's terrible. terrible. they're resisting progress, they're resisting change, because the only thing they real
