lauren: president trump is heading to iowa today to tour renewable energy facility and to talk about gasoline and using ethanol in it. the former vice president joe biden will be across iowa at iowa westland university. polls are showing biden as the frontrunner of the p democratic candidates, although his lead is narrowing. given the importance of iowa during election time, is this the first big square-off for what's to come. let's bring in washington examiner reporter, emily larsen. they're both there, different parts of the state. what's the message from camp
5:23 am
biden and camp trump? >> reporter: camp trump is trying to give is message to the people that he's been a job creator, that he's led the country back into a booming economy. i'm sure he'll say that when he tours the ethanol plant and speaks to a republican fundraiser today. joe biden will make the argument that donald trump has dramatically and drastically altered and changed sort of the core and soul of the country, that's been his whole pitch in this democratic primary, that he is the person to take on president trump and carry on the torch of the obama years in the future. well havhe'll have to do a lot . a lot of people that i talked to at the iowa democratic hall of fame forum this weekend were a little upset that he wasn't one of the 19 candidates who showed up to speak to them and make his pitch to them this weekend. lauren: that could be his strategy, to wait it out as we get closer to the debates, closer to the election and of course before that the iowa
5:24 am
caucuses. we'll see. it seems like both biden and trump having to prove. trump has to say hey, farmers, i'm with you. biden, i'm not a flip-flopper, if you voted for drum last timet time, you want to vote for me this time. alexandria ocasio-cortez could be looking to move over to the senate and take a run for the seats of either jill 3wr57d or r schumer. she's not even liked in parts of new york. what do you make of that report? >?>> i think that alexandria ocasio-cortez has a big vision for the future. i'm not surprised that top democrats are worried or expecting she might try to further those political ambitions in the future and potentially take on chuck schumer or kirsten gillibrand. she will have a tough time. a poll from right after the amazon second headquarters
5:25 am
decided they would not set up shop in new york, poll found that state-wide, alexandria ocasio-cortez had a 31% approval rating and 44% disapproval rating. she is in tough waters. kirsten gillibrand has shown she can win the northern districts in the state. lauren: do you think whoever the candidate on the democratic side is, do you think they need aoc's approval? i can't believe i'm asking that question. >> it will depend who the candidate is, how progressive the candidate is and whether they feel like they will be concerned by a socialist label. lauren: emily larsen, thank you. >> thank you. cheryl: today in france, team usa kicking off their quest for women's world cup glory when they take the field against therthailand. lauren: carley shimkus is there, catching up with fans ahead of the game. good to see you.

5:33 am
let's bring in joel griffith. good morning. >> good morning. cheryl: it's interesting, let's talk about the threat of the new tariffs. we talked about the fact that the tariff can be a tax on the consumer here in the united states. what is the likelihood, do you think, that we go full-money inn the tariff war with china. >> i'm holding out hope that the threatened tariffs don't come to full fruition. the tariffs that have been imposed already over the past year on chinese imports are hurting the typical american family to the tune of $800 per year, per family. if the tariffs are sent into all chinese imports, we're looking at costs running in excess of $2,000 per family per year which would erode most of the value of the tax cuts a that were just passed. cheryl: you've got a lot of wall street analysts talking about the fact that this could indeed be the new threat from china. there's some question out there among some of the analysts, the banks, that the chinese might be waiting to see how the next
5:34 am
election plays out and that all of this is just a stall tactic by the government so that they don't put anything in writing, agree to anything until our elections come up soon. what do you think about that theory that's out there? >> some of the strategists in china may be looking to wait out the united states election. i think for the most part, this is something they want to avoid having to delay. the fact is, the more uncertainty we introduce into the marketplace, the more supply chain disruptions that we're going to be looking at, which would hurt a lot of u.s. companies but also a lot of chinese companies as they attempt to implement their long-term capital plan. cheryl: speaking of companies from china and abroad, right now heritage has an economic freedom score on hong kong as 90.2. protests have erupted. there is concern that the government is going to get closer to mainland china and that could jeopardize frankly the freedom of sovereignity of hong kong. do you see that score from
5:35 am
heritage changing if the law changes in hong kong? >> the score we have in our index of economic freedom is not based on freedom of speech. it's based -- or on government freedom in general it's based on economic freedom. we look at things such as trade restrictions, government efficiency, whether or not there's corruption and in all of those things hong kong is the best in the world. but the threat is that beijing will be able -- they'll impose more control over their interpretation of hong kong law. beijing has the ultimate authority to interpret the hong kong constitution and if that is extended to economic matters, this could indeed affect their economic freedom ranking. cheryl: u.s. manufacturing certainly is a story tied to the chinese. i want to bring you home for a second before i let you go. there's an interesting these in the wall street journal talking about the economic decline of the southern states. think the carolinas, think virginia, west virginia, and that factory output is down,
5:36 am
wages are low and this is part of the u.s. economy that is in dire straits. what do you say to that and especially those americans that are watching from those states? >> that was a fascinating wall street journal piece. the one concern is that it lumps together all of the states in the southeast region together and actually leaves out two from the analysis, texas and florida, which have been some of the most booming over the past few decades. the fact is, the southeast is not monolithic, in terms of policy or in economic performance. economic performance is directly related to public policy. there's a huge disparity. for instance, look at the basic tort issues, how easy it is to engage in lawsuits. louisiana is near the bottom in the country in terms of that. meanwhile, you have other parts of the southeast that engaged in tort reform, same thing goes for workers' comp and corporate income taxes. florida has no income tax. tennessee has none. arkansas is near the top in corporate income tax. cheryl: it's a fascinating
5:37 am
piece. i encourage our readers to look at. joel, thank you, a lot to cover with you. prioappreciate it. lauren: the markets are taking their cue on the latest developments on trade with mexico and china. big tech companies testifying on capitol hill today and a new round of m&a. cliff hodge is a director of investments for corner stone wealth. he joins us now. you look at president trump's threats of more tariffs on china and the worry is that that could push the u.s. into recession. so does that hurt the president in 2020 if the economy weakens? how much do you expect it to weaken, if at all? >> that's a great question. and certainly as we get closer to election season, we're going to start seeing rhetoric amp up. so president trump is going to be certainly appealing to his base. our view is that he is going to continue this hard line against china and so we'll see what happens at the g-20.
5:38 am
we're optimistic that ultimately both sides do want to make a deal. but with the rhetoric amping up and both sides seeming to move further apart, we think a deal in the short term is unlikely. lauren: does a deal prevent a recession, cliff? are you worried about a recession? >> if you look at the data, look at the survey data, pmi numbers, industrial production, some of the leading indicators are certainly starting to roll over. but on the other hand, if you look at the strength of the consumer, you look at the unemployment rate being the lowest that it's been in over 50 years, household debt as a percentage of gdp is lower than where we were in past slowings going into recessions, so overall we think the economy is still in good shape but we certainly do need to get a deal done on trade. hopefully before the elections. so that some of the supply chain concerns that your last guest
5:39 am
was mentioning don't really come into fruition. lauren: trade is a big uncertainty. and in some ways mergers and acquisitions could be an uncertainty as well. the new york post is reporting a federal judge, leon, is close to blocking cbs' purchase of aetna because of concerns for the future. i bring up uncertainty and m&a because companies think they have a deal and then, poof, a judge can just say no you don't. that's another cause of concern for markets who have been looking -- companies looking to merge. >> markets certainly hate uncertainty. and so headlines like these are definitely not helpful. there's a place for regulation. there's a place for making sure that these companies are looking out in the best interest of their consumers. but any additional uncertainty on the markets that come from these factors or other announced mergers are certainly not going
5:40 am
to be helpful. lauren: so much uncertainty out there, but the certainty in quotes that the markets have right now is that the fed cuts rates because we have the markets up on once again. cliff, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. cheryl: that's right. really market watchers kind of watching that weak jobs report from may, does that mean the fed's going to act sooner rather than later. that's kind of the bet going on right now. dow up 104, s&p up 12 and a quarter, nasdaq up 47 and-a-half. still ahead, new details about the death of kim jong un's half brother. was he in fact an international spy? and madness on the diamond last night, what caused fists to fly at his baseball game. details coming up on "fbn: a.m." ♪ i never wanted you unsatisfied. ♪ she pulls me in. ♪ i never wanted you to cry again.
