[cheers and applause] they came out more popular than

ronald reagan. think of it you go from interloper and that's a horrible term. i was just doing my thing. i'm not an interloper, but we have tremendous -- look at the people we endorsed. donovan was behind if we endorsed him and he won by 24 points or something last night. in staten island, new york and new york generally dan donovan, congressman. last night we had a great evening because we watch that television and we one left and right. they did know what the hell happened and one of my biggest critics a slope and lay man named joe crowley got his kicked by a young woman who had a lot of energy. she had a lot of energy.

[cheers and applause] maxine and nancy. i was disappointed in a way when he got beaten because he was

going to take her place a thing. now he is just looking at us and saying what happened? politics is a mean game, is that? it's a fleeting game. six months ago republicans passed the biggest tax cuts and reform in american history. [cheers and applause] our plan doubled the child tax credit thank you to ivanka trump. [cheers and applause] she wanted that so badly. she really got to be a pest. dad, you've got to get the child tax credit. i said darling nobody knows what it is. she said the women know, dad, the women know. my daughter and my wife melania, they love the women and the women love them. [cheers and applause] and the men love them.

the child tax credit. people don't talk about it that much. it's very substantial and we know we got it for you. we/taxes for working families. most of them in half as our family farms and small businesses by eliminating the estate tax in almost all cases. it's known as the death tax and now when you leave your small business or your farm you leave it to your children. your children don't go to the bank, borrow money and lose the farm or lose the business. [cheers and applause] kevin and john and the whole group helped us a lot. and guess what?

i voted against it. she is always going to vote against him by the way she may give us a couple of quick u-boats before the election. she has no choice but the day after that election shoes voting 100%. more than 100 utility companies nationwide have slashed prices for customers saving them in this country much more than $3 billion which reduces your electric and utility bills. hiding and every single democrat voted against our tax cuts. we are also fixing the disasters that have plundered our wealth, and added our communities undermined our great progress, taken our jobs. we are going to make trade fair

and reciprocal, reciprocal. you know what that is. they do it to us. we do it to them. [applause] and we are placing very big tariffs on some of these countries because they have tariffs on us. i wonder where these people come from. so we will have the country. doesn't matter i can almost name many of them. they have massive tariffs on our people honor workers and our farmers and their company and their country. we say we are going to put tariffs on them and i have politicians in other people come to me, oh please we want free trade. how is this free trade? i will give you an example. china, we make the car and sell it to china. they charge us a 25% tax.

that's what it is, 25%. when they make a car and sell it to the united states, and there are a lot of them, we charge them a grand total of 2.5% and they don't pay it back. then when i want to raise the game and play the game of poker a game that we can't lose politicians mostly democrats but even a couple of republicans will say we want free trade. that's not fair trade. it's so ridiculous. just play the game for a little while. you know i have said a couple of times when we are a $500 billion down they say trump is starting a trade war. i say no, the trade war ended a long time ago and the united states lost because our leaders didn't take care of our people and our companies. [cheers and applause]

we are not starting a trade war but we will finish it and you know in the end do you know what's going to happen? it has lardy happened. they are going to come to us and they are going to say let's work it out. but remember it's "the art of the deal" but anybody can do a deal. this one doesn't get much simpler. remember it's true when you are $500 billion down you have party lost. but now we are going to at least make it fair. we have got to make it fair. and the fact is we have had presidents and we have had leaders that works for those presidents and negotiated trade reps who were missing -- missing in action. i was dealt a lot of bad hands. frankly we were very close with

30 million people, this a million people. they have what they call cannons , thousands of them. we had a great relationship with the fake news was so upset when i said we had a good relationship. we have a good chemistry. that's a horrible thing. no, no it's a good thing. getting along with countries, getting along with china, getting along with russia is a good thing. it's not a bad thing. [cheers and applause] so we have things cooking now. you are going to be so happy but it's like rushing the turkey out of the stove. it's not going to be as good.

the women can tell me and some of the men, you have to be politically correct. in the old days i would have just said it's too hokey but it's true. some of the men can tell me to, right? some of the men but here's what we do. the more they rush the worse it's going to be. the longer we take the better. your farmers, your people are going to be great. john and kevin just told me this canadian wheat markets consistently discriminate against the united states suite by grading it as -- do you know what that means? i don't know what the hell it means i just know it's a bad deal. [cheers and applause] but it's true. candidate charges that's a

terrace of 275%. that's like saying we don't want your dairy products. it's no good. that's like saying we don't want north dakota, wisconsin, new york state. 275% and i actually hear that they raise to the number of months ago. how horrible is that? and then justin gets up we follow world war one world war ii together. we love canada but they are taking advantage of us. we can't let that happen. we can't let it happen. the era of global freeloading and taking advantage of the united states is over.

rebecca your thoughts on what you have heard and what you have seen, the reception he gets and how effective is the? >> he is so effective because he connects with the people. he creates a universe and includes his presidency and the people as we. he says we are going to come together. we are going to make this country great again. he includes people and creates a momentum for positive change that we haven't seen in a very long time. lou: as you pointed out he preferred to our presidency. i don't know that i've heard a president refer to the presidency as ours but i know we have had presidents, we heard for eight years barack obama in the first-person singular used over 100 times and my, me, my in his state of the union address. this president always speaks

with inclusion, speaks in the plural and when he addresses these issues it is us, it is ours and he talks about the nation with such affection in his voice. it's stirring, it's moving. >> that's the democratic process, respect for the constitution and respect for the individuals that voted for him. it is our country. we are together forming a union to try to have better lives all of us and he understands the plight of an individual american citizens. he's attempting to do that with all of his policies. they are not selfish policies. lou: it's startling sometimes when i think how the national left-wing media has tried to diminish this man who has been successful throughout his life.

he said the diversity. he has a story attached to anyone other than the president of the united states would be i think a favorite among the national media. he has been a man of achievement and accomplishment and he has stared into the deep troubles of finance and business and multibillionaire. he wants to discuss does he have the millions in what is the most specious and frankly small minded responses to one could imagine coming from the fourth estate of this country. he wants to build better minds and better journalist than these folks are pretending to be covering national politics in this president. >> i think it's a disrespect to an individual and a person who

is elected as the president. let's move on. the president said let's come together. i think we should all come together and try to work together for a better place for everyone to live. if we continue this constant negativity and attacking, where are we going? lou: you know what's interesting all this negativity. this president has taken us extraordinary places. he has restored prosperity. he has restored the markets. $8 trillion, $7 trillion now in the markets since he was elected he refers to that is profit and indeed it has been and i think woody's accomplishing foreign-policy at the same time. now the left is apoplectic because he will be choosing a second supreme court justice in less than two years in office, extraordinary. rebecca rosewood good to have

you here. we appreciate it. joining us now is chris farrell the director of investigations research for judicial watch. i don't know how much of this president's speech you got to see but i do know you are an acute observer of anything and especially this president is having so much fun. i can't think of a president, perhaps ronald reagan but never with quite the same expressed joy that this president rings to the voters and the people who he truly, truly wants to represent, the people forgotten by three successive presidents who preceded president trump. >> he was a tour de force. it was classic trump. it was direct. it was honest self-deprecating humor, a genuine conversation with the public there.

there's no condescension. there's no preening and posturing. you get cured donald trump, the guy, the man, the business leaders the president and he connects with people at a level that i cannot remember any other president connecting. obviously ronald reagan was a tremendous leader but there something else another dynamic with this president with respect to his ability to talk to anybody and everybody in such a frank and direct manner. i have always happily shocked or amused by it really because he disarmed his opponents. he so genuine and frank. lou: we put up a picture one point that shows hillary clinton and the president in a debate in 2016. she looked so uncomfortable. i don't know how uncomfortable

and he was scowling into the camera. he was fierce looking. she was trying to figure out what to do with this fellow who was interfering with her ascension to the crowd. >> he doesn't suffer fools. lou: exactly an now is to watch this president and the people in fargo tonight where he won by a huge margin the stay. he thanked them and he thanked them for making certain he is president of the united states. let's turn to those who want to bring up collusion. peter strzok was sort of a quiet stealthy celebrity today on capitol hill. it was behind closed doors in the house of representatives talking to the judiciary. this is the guy at the center of the hillary clinton e-mail scandal, the guy who is at the

center of the staff of the bob mueller special counsel investigating collusion. your thoughts about what in the world is going on and why isn't he being prosecuted? >> there is superagent strzok who has put himself in the middle of every investigation and i have come to an understanding that he was incredibly disingenuous. one person described him as just a straight up liar. his false and misleading statements. there was an fbi counsel sitting in the room objecting to half the questions that were asked which to me is another imponderable. look, i don't know what was trying to be accomplished today. obviously strzok faces grave criminal and civil liabilities. i guess maybe he was trying to

position himself for an immunity deal. lou: whatever he was doing we are going to watch christopher wray and rod rosenstein before the judiciary >> he risks his life to take down gangsters... >> your uncle met al capone and even spent time with him? >> he lived with him. >> he was like the james bond. he was the serpico. >> ...and helped crack the crime of the century. >> "the kidnapping and murder of charles augustus lindbergh jr." >> wow! >> this will forever change how this story will be viewed. >> but to his family, he's a total mystery. >> a real shadowy figure. >> very shadowy. >> now his heir is on a mission to honor him. >> are you obsessed with this? >> absolutely. >> as we go undercover with the mob. >> you know, i didn't do it.
