into the international ca cathedrals, including all lives presidents. >> i believe it will be said no occupant of the oval office was more horonnablon horrorrable th- honorable than george herbert walker bush. >> perhaps just a single letter, letter l for loyalty, it coursed through his blood. to his country. loyally to his family. loyalty to his friends. and loyalty to the institutions of government and always, always, a friend to his friends. kennedy: vice president,

president, died on friday at the aim of age of 94, it was george w. bush who delivered final moving all joe. >> so through our tears, let us know the blessings of knowing and loving you. a great and noble man. the best father a son or daughter could have. and in our grief, a smile knowing that dad is hugging robin and holding mom's hand again. kennedy: 41 would not have wanted sorrow and tears, it was a celebration of his life, a chance for our nation to set aside big differences we have. joining he now, washington time opinion editor, fox news contributor charles hurt. and juan williams is here. >> welcome. >> thank you. kennedy: charlie, you are in tc,

what stood out. >> remarkable, everyone talking about hw's humility. and important of a moment you bring a divided nation together. it was possible only way, this is not only true about hw, but his son w . politicians was not their entire lives, we saw that today in the service and the stories. you know, they cared about politics, they cared about what they needed to do in politics. but they had lives to live, families they loved. they had things they loved to do, he loved to fish, and hunt, outside of this kind of nasty world of politics, because of that, it of the very easy for them to then, walk off the stage and extend an olive branch to

political enemies. it was easier. i wish more politicians would sort of take the role of politics, sort of kind of sequester it to that one thing that it is important. absolutely employe but there soh more important things, and george h.w. bush was a monument to that. kennedy: it was beautiful, i like we showed alan simpson said about loyalty, almost feels that people lost touch with the word. and this moral ideal of being true to your family and country. and your friends, not just your party. have we lost sight of that? is there anything in this that is resonate for longer than a day. >> i don't know about that. but this is the moment, which you see american people

responding one to character. i am moved by the son, speaking eulogizing his father. this is a unique moment. here we have the opportunity. about what strikes me, you have people now reaching to each other as people, you spoke about loyalty to family, friends, to country. this is different from tribalism that i think speeds polarization of this moment. kennedy: i think you are right. >> this a very special time. i just, i got taken away today, people are joking about him as a human being who done like brock- broccoli or jim baker, saying he is in hospital, he was on a limited diet, guess what, i brought him vodka and a steak.

that my buddy, that is someone saying, juan, charlie is in the hospital, he wants to know what going on with harper, we're national fans. >> no greater friend than he --- baseball aside no greater friend than he who brings you vodka in the hospital. kennedy: a lot better an apple sauce and stale muffin. >> even intraparty. you saw, that john mccain did not invite trump, bush allowed despite all trump fire at bush family, said, no, we want the president there. kennedy: that is also the report that george herbert walker bush had for the was o office will, e he occupied the office, senator mccain and president trump were in an active feud on many

different fronts. that is understandable, that is his wish. but george h.w. bush having been president, and felt and tasted bitterness of political defeat, knowing what it means to move past, that and evolve as a human, and i have tremendous thirdable of his -- act of his life, he had a different motivation for that however what president, the current occupant came in there was frostiness with the clintons. >> hard to see from body language how much that was frostiness or how much that was because of the dynamics of the way they were sitting, wharf the case, of the most important thing, out of it is what you mentioned, fact that bushes made it clear, they wanted president trucker to be there, first lady to be there they welcomed them -- president trump to be there first lady to be there they welcomed them, they made it clear, they did not want this to

be a partisan hack job or a political hack job, for most part inside of ceremonies we have not heart an heard that, ta tribute to proper role of politics in our life. kennedy: i will say about this and george h.w. bush's life, he stuck the landings, well done. juan and charlie thank you. >> thank you. kennedy: we'll have more on life and legacy of president george h.w. bush, i talk with former speech writer to jennifer grossman, that 43. to potential trade war with china, trump is changing rhetoric set market tumbling, it bitcould it somehow lead us clor to a deal. dow fell 799 pointing yesterday,

as soon as president tweeted and called himself mr. tariff man. but today, strong signals sense by china. not to sea sound naive, but i believe president xi meant of word at what he said, all subjects discussed. as a nebraska farm bureau estimates that president's tariffs have cost state close to $1.2 billion, this is part of the game before the president brings home the bacon? joining me now, former senior adviser to president trump and george w. bush christian white. welcome back. >> good to be here. kennedy: there are two presidents, president trump has an evil twin, who saids impulsive things that you described as puffery, we need to do away with evil twin, how did

we too that. >> it is one thing -- but anyone that understands what is going on in china, knows they are not over dinner on sideline of the g20 get a change their way of doing business. that is based on stealing other openy intellectual property. to come out of g20 saying this is biggest deal of etook market a total of one day to figure out that not true, it looks like we'll get tariffs, at end of this 90 day period. who knows. kennedy: both sides want to get rid of the tariffs. what is -- what is the big roadblock, for you? >> probably a big lie, i don't think that china wants to get rid of any tariffs, don't think it wants to reform, i think they believe that trump is a one termer, they think that he is a flash in the pan. kennedy: they are trying to wait

him out, and wait until he is done with his presidency, because xi is president for life. >> right. twice before in this administration, forget how this happened before, at mar-a-lago then last march, they come forward with the same thing before. a lot of goodies, trust us we'll buy stuff, they will buy it anyway. >> do you think they are lying. >> they are lying, they are commie, they don't believe in anything no property rights. kennedy: they don't believe. i know. that is what a communist society is, they want some economic prosperity but to have full engagement you have to have freedom, they have number two economy in the world, how does that force our hand here, how does u.s. reacting. >> if badg administration were d

at communicating. -- some people would be upset, we need to get tough, look at reagan and soa soviet, it took s second term, they realized that is not a temporary change, the bloom was off the rose, trump should put on sanctions, we have 10% on now. >> we talk about bringing manufacturing back to the country, what about automotive manufacturers in united states. you have the manufacturers and farmers who want access to that huge market, you can't shut them out, saying, oh, well, reagan did it. >> that market is often a

mirage. saying, you can't ignore the market, therey are 300 million shannoindonesians. -- >> i think that is why trump stood up with with abe as a symbol to china, say, we do have access to great big markets, and emerging middle class in india and parts of the far east, that could rival what china is doing, we could get a better deal, that could put pressure on china. >> right, competition, and we -- if we enrich a foreign economy, it is better to do it to be a free country like india be that china. kennedy: i like india. >> yeah. kennedy: for me, it is culinary diplomacy, if we like their food, then we should buy their

products and free tried, indian food is better than chinese food. >> we don't have a chance, if that is your criteria. kennedy: scotland, they have oatmeal ha is delicious. and scotch. >> yeah. kennedy: thank you very much. >> thank you. kennedy: coming up, several development in mueller investigation this week. but nothing that shows that president colluded with russia. when this is said and done, will it have been naught or not for the democrats? i'll ask the panel, coming up, it's a good one. after the break.

memo. they. we have not seen proof of a collusion that was supposed to be the basis for the investigation, that leading some to wonder if the probe is setting trump haters up for a let down. joining our panel deirdre bolton, and dave smith. joe conchoe. >> hello. >> what do we know about the sentencing momento, there is -- memo, there is so much we don't know. >> a lot of black lines through that. kennedy: every time we have holes in story, people just fill them up with their own ideas. >> i think that idea meant to be said by mueller, cooperate and you get leniency, if you don't we'll try to bite you, that is the takeover, there is a difference between being sleazy and criminal. i am not sure what is been

proven yet that is criminal. a lot of stuff maybe not people's best ideas. but, i'm waiting for more. kennedy: a lot is a primmer how not on hire prime minister durinpeople during apresident ae the kind of folks you stay away from. saying that, you look at this, peacpeach people are staunch defenders of the president. you look at resources, they can squeeze anyone for any given out come. >> i don't think there is any political candidate people would have survived this level of descreuscrutiny and grilled fors and hours. then, the selectivity in terms of like, james clapper, lied to congress about building largest

spying apparatus in history of humanity, no one talked about him being prosecuted for that but cohen got month wrong of a business deal, we're going after him. to your point what is criminal, being misrepresented in media, trump jr. meeting is not criminal, building a tower in russia is not criminal, and collusion, itself is not criminal, no one seems to point that out enough. >> they are not best practices but -- >> thank god we have a media reporter here. >> unless there is a direct line drawn from russian officials to president trump, the american people are not going to buy removing trump from was on the r having him impeached. kennedy: if stone has sketchy contact, and foreign knowledge that is not same at president trump and president putin working it to chang together toe

outcome. >> rod rosenstein said himself, not one vote was changed. in 90s with bill clinton how he committed purg perjury in his testimony about monica lewinsky. republicans over played their hand then, do you know what approval rating president clinton left was o office with,, democrats, you bet very that bet direct line. kennedy: impomp a type-- impeachment woue coarse thing in the world for the president. >> it would be kavanaugh affect. democrats were elected to get things done, this president will compromise on infrastructure or prescription drugs or opioids

war, his state funeral at national cathedral in washington those who knew him best spoke of his impact on the world. >> george herbert walker bush was america's last, great soldier statesman. a 20th century founding father. >> every single head of government in the world knew they were dealing with a gentleman, a genuine leader, one who was distinguished resolute and brave. >> a man of such great humility, those who traveled high road of hewlett-packard illty i -- humility in washington d.c. are not bothered by heavy traffic. kennedy: his eldest son, george w. bush said his father did his best to instill those morals in everyone he met. >> he looked for the good in

each person, he usually found it he taught us public service is noble and necessary, one can serve with integrity and hold true to important values like faith and family. kennedy: what was it like knowing him, working with him? former speech writer for george h.w. bush jennifer grossman with me now, hello. >> hi. kennedy: tell me about first time you met george h.w. bush in the oval was. >> i'll never forget it, sometimes i wish i could. it was the one of the more ember embarrass moments, i was justint introduced to him, i was lowest woman on totem pole, a came to white house as a researcher, a step above intern, i was intertrotropical storm alberto -

intre deuced tin-- introduced ty boss, i could not speak. the president of the asking, where are you from, and i could not say anything. i remember this was evidence of his sense of empathy and kindness. kennedy: when he left office, in january of 1993, he really want a punching bag. the nation was at a cross-roads politically, the first baby boomer president was ushered in, president clinton. a lot of theme people thought politically he was finished, very few thought he bowl have the stirling legacy that has been highlighted.

are you surprised how people have reactioned to his death? >> no. i grew up in a democrat president, and george h.w. bush is always the republican that democrats loved to praise in part because they do it as a side dig at more conservative or libertarian republicans, but i'm also glad, this is what funerals and memorials are about. about remembering the best in people, his son said, president was on look out for the best in people, he housel usually found it. kennedy: president reagan was an icon, had two terms, president nixon, you know, resigned. and had a very different sort of legacy that he left. how do you think that president george h.w. bush will be remembered?

generations from now. >> i think vice -- as vice president, bush suffered from common vice president syndrome, chafing at having to be in lieutenant role. usely presidents that succeed a president, they will react, in a certain extent. i think he kind of over reacted. that was by downgrading the vision thing, and speech writing to his detriment. he never bonded with his speech writers, ironically made it a great place to be a budding speech writer. kennedy: my question, he is not -- president reagan was known for his delivery. and you know, peggy nonnen re-- rejoiced. and was he an easier or

difficult person to right for. >> he was easy if you just wanted to write whatever you wanted. but, peggy, i greatly admire, did make it difficult, more difficult, not just she was hardable t act to follow. but she. i think bush had downgraded the speech writer role, he took away white house passes, and moved speech writing from west wing to old executive office building and never spent enough time with his speech writers, his son, president george w. bush again, learned from this ther lesson, e knew importance of messaging he spent a lot of time with his speech writes, he had them shadow him.

kennedy: that is before we had 24 hour news cycles, those speech writers were critical. jennifer thank you. >> thank you. z. kennedy: bush 41 beat a democrat to be president. and then, lost to one 4 years later, democrats looking to inseat a republican president, make him a one termer, no one has officially announced a 2020 run quite yet, but buzz grows, joe biden doing nothing to quash rumors, declaring he is most qualified person to be president. and there a bernie sanders to run a bigger. and o'rourke met with obama speculating he is running, and

bloobloomberg visited iowa this week. the list goes on, on, how many democrats will jump in the race, do any of them have a real chance of beating president trump, welcome us christian anderson, welcome back. >> thank you. kennedy: about what do you make of this blossoming field. >> all those names were guys, i would think that democrats will find it quite hard to not nominate a woman given that success of year of woman 2.0 they had on house side, you have so many democrats running, i am surprised when you have someone like today, former massachusetts governor patrick saying, he is not running. incentives are there you could be someone like bernie sanders. who was polling 3% this time 4 years ago.

obama, donald trump, last two people who run presidency, at this stage in game, they were polling -- if they were included in polls they were in single digits it is anyone's game, last two presidents have come from nowhere, and ru won the white he any democrat should be thinking, i can do it. kennedy: they all do, to want to be president, you have to be a narcissist, and you have to want to be most important person in the world, which means have you an automatic glitch, you say in the shadow of the "me too" movement it would be difficult, hypocritical for democrat to run an old white man? >> they can choose whatever they want and decide how they want identity to factor in i think that you have seen a lot of talk from the democratic side about the need if sort of move in a new era, with more diverse

leadership, it would not surprise me if that is a factor they discuss, they okay democrat think about that issue in a different way than republicans. republicans, they say, identity politics, they don't' to go there, and democrat put it front and center? they. jim: the.kennedy: they do. we like the emotional stuff. the stuff from the heart, really expense of stuff. >> that drives me crazy. you know a woman in politics, idea that -- i think that under cuts women's position, you say all the emotional stuff, you have seen, just think about hillary clinton, she struggled with do you -- you cry on campaign trial, do you rise in poll. do you have to be tough, strong, on democrat excit -- side, amy m minnesota, is one that i think

is interesting to watch, she does well in rural areas, not something most democrats can say. kennedy: true. i don't think that kamala harris will resonate in certain parts of country away that president trump dway that will be necessary in 2020, but you are right about amy, she is very smart. she tends to be more moderate. but great thing about it, it shows anyone's game. and for those of us who follow politics, we want to keep it interesting. thank you so much christian. >> of course. kennedy: coming up, ride share company like uber provide cheap safe rides for customers, they make money for drivers, one u.s. city wants to ruin whole thing artificially raising rates, why, where and who? the panel, they return next.

but when i started seeing i knew aboutthings,emors. i didn't know what was happening... so i kept it in. he started believing things that weren't true. i knew something was wrong... but i didn't say a word. during the course of their disease around 50% of people with parkinson's may experience hallucinations or delusions. but now, doctors are prescribing nuplazid. the only fda approved medicine...

proven to significantly reduce hallucinations and delusions related to parkinson's. don't take nuplazid if you are allergic to its ingredients. nuplazid can increase the risk of death in elderly people with dementia-related psychosis and is not for treating symptoms unrelated to parkinson's disease. nuplazid can cause changes in heart rhythm and should not be taken if you have certain abnormal heart rhythms or take other drugs that are known to cause changes in heart rhythm. tell your doctor about any changes in medicines you're taking. the most common side effects are swelling of the arms and legs and confusion. we spoke up and it made all the difference. ask your parkinson's specialist about nuplazid. kennedy: new york city, state us, worse kind, they are at it

again, just time before they get to you, this time, mandated a new minimum wage $17.22 an hour after expenses for uber and lyft price, ride share cust -- say it will increase cost and less efficient. after the vote, i believe all new yorkers are willing to pay more, and wait longer so people transporting fetransporting theo provide for themselves and their family, yeah, right, first of all that not true, we're cheap and impatient. >> why is the city again trying to fight the free market. >> why? friday night, raining, yes, i will pay 50. >> this started years ago, when driver were classified as independent corrected ors --

contractor instead of employees. that is where battle lines were drawn. this is after years, and i think there something to be said about taxi limousine commission saying we're just going to help the factaxi drivers. >> i hate what state speaks in volunteerism, but uber and lyft cracked open medical medallion practice, rich people could buy medallions and take advantage of people who drive the cab, they broke that open. kennedy: at least i get to rate my mafia, and uber driver has an

incentive to be a decent person. >> joe. >> this happens in super markets, they did minimum raise hikes for check out. what do business do, they put in auto swipes, this in case, you put a price on consumers, they will find answer thattives in -- alternatives, in new york city, i think it costs too much for uber, i will go subway, bus. >> that is what uber and lyft are saying, new yorkers are not paying more. kennedy: no they will not, they are already impatient, and guess what, the subway sucks, i am sorry, i hate to be the skunk at gartgarden party. >> cheers to this, prohibition ended 85 years ago today, we have learned tough lesson in 13 years that alcohol of the illegal,al crow ho alcohol trade controlled by black market and murder rate was doubled.

states are warming up to weed, michigan tonight will be 10 state where devil's lettuce is legal for recreational importance, how long before wewide u wise up and end drug war. >> we could make progress on that, donald trump is a republican, he is open to some reforms, i think that ending drug war could be a popular issue, i don't think that too many people want to continue with failed war, we recognize problem with pr prohibition, lie all other status examples huge money involved in prison industrial complex they own a large percentage of our politicians. >> they there these huge organizations that the don't want to give up their neat weapons and stuff. >> but tax possibilities are there, kind of what we were talking about, they, i think i n

say the 10% on the sales. hopefully someone's pockets will be lined. so that issue can go i agree, this is -- >> maybe new york had recreational marijuana, that was legal, we would have better subways. >> that is a good point. >> i love -- for first time, 51% of republicans think that weed should be legal, and through the roof for independents and democrats, it going to direction, i think within next decade it will be legal, but don't use the devil devil's lee when doing the devil devil's t. >> it is a drinking game. >> a shout out to new york, during prohibition, they were only state to not en act that. kennedy: because cuomo and de

blasio were not in charge. >> thank you, thank you, nice to see you all, topical storm is next, stay here. liberty mutual accident forgiveness means they won't hike your rates over one mistake. see, liberty mutual doesn't hold grudges. for drivers with accident forgiveness, liberty mutual won't raise their rates because of their first accident. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ ♪ the greatest wish of all... is one that brings us together. the lincoln wish list event is here. sign and drive off in a new lincoln with $0 down, $0 due at signing, and a complimentary first month's payment. only at your lincoln dealer.
