hand or miss tweet us at jer on fnc. thank you to my panel and ththa you all for watching. i am paul gigot. we hope to see you here next week. >> good evening everybody jerome powell and his colleagues on the federal reserve agreeing with the president, this is no time to be raising interest rates. in fact most economic indicators and the yield curve suggest the president is right. it is time to cut interest rates. but powell not cutting them, leaving them instead unchanged. while a cut may come in the months ahead. the president trying to secure the border and stopping illegal immigration. u.s. customs and border

protection say border arrests in june so far down 13 percent from the year ago. and the month of may. and vowing immigration and customs enforcement are a carry out interior enforcement of immigration laws. begin the removal of illegal immigrants were received due process and under judges orders to be deported. >> when people come into our country and they come in illegally they have to go out and everybody seeing that and as you know, jessica's been doing a very good job the last four days. they haven't done that in 25 years of doing a very good job. i appreciate the job they are doing. guatemala likewise. lou: the president or the federal government to take action. at the border and in the interior of the country. for more on the president's commitment to enforcing immigration laws, kevin corke with us tonight from the white

house. >> even as we look forward to tonight is 2020 campaign kickoff in florida, resident jump is also looking back. an issue many believe help curtail his 2016 run to the white house. illegal immigration. apparently build the wall down and send them home is in. the present tweeting next week i.c.e. will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens that have illicitly found their way into the united states. they will be removed as fast as they come in. the president's political opponents pounced. >> the present tweets when they with no basis.he will deport millions of people.two of the highest ranking officials within the agency, within csis and homeland security have said it's impossible to do. >> we are not prepared to do it. >> the california senate democratic presidential hopeful camel-- kamala harris -- >> we need to get together and sell the asylum problem which

is easy to solve and they should solve the loophole problem also very easy to solve. >> very interesting washington political game. a game of chicken perhaps on capitol hill. we'll watch it carefully but were now back to you. lou: kevin, thank you. kevin corke from the white house. our first guest tonight is the man in charge of our nations interior enforcement. he formerly served as a u.s. border patrol chief now president trump's choice to lead the immigration and customs agency and he is the man in charge of as i said, interior enforcement. joining us tonight, mark morgan, acting director of i.c.e. great to have you with us on the broadcast. i have two, if i may, just ask, jean who chuck schumer was referring to, someone at citizenship and immigration services and someone at dhs. he said it would be impossible to enforce our immigration laws? >> no, i do not know who he is referring to, lou.

i always second-guess when it is an anonymous source. clearly, we are not going to go out and apprehend millions of people at one time. but we do have millions of people here illegally. we have over a million people that have had due process as you said, have had a fair hearing and a judge has ordered them removed and is still remaining here. we're going to still looking at the demographic and start enforcing the law and applying consequences. lou: and the president, in absolute, assisting the immigration laws be enforced. that the border be secured. has had to fight members of his own party. rinos for the most part, mitch mcconnell, has been unyielding in his resistance. without explanation frankly. chuck schumer, nancy pelosi. refusing to acknowledge, let

alone take action on their constitutional responsibility to enforce laws. this, the president has served notice now and selecting you, as i.c.e. director in putting together a team at dhs and in which he has confidence that those days are over. it is time to get very serious about the horrible impact of illegal immigration. and a government that will not enforce laws. >> is exactly right. the president is absolutely clear and has been clear. he has made wants to maintain the integrity of the system and the rule of law. i agree 100 percent. if you come here illegally have due process and have been ordered, ruled by a judge, consequences should be applied, the rule of law should be

enforced and you should be removed. it is not any more complicated than that. we're going to do this with humanity and compassion and dignity. what i'm saying right now and the president i believe is saying the same thing. by letting people know what's happening, i'm hoping in encouraging these individuals who final orders removal do not make i.c.e. come to you.do not make i.c.e. come to your neighborhood, to your job, to your home, come to us. we are asking you to comply with the law and the order, work with i.c.e. and we will work with you in a humane way to return you to your country of origin. that's what we are asking these individuals to do. lou: and of course, you are now hearing from chuck schumer, attacking i.c.e. you have candidates in the democratic party saying that they want to defund i.c.e. the language has been shocking. some referring to i.c.e. as a nazi agency, today aoc referring to concentration camps run by i.c.e. the ignorance, the appalling ignorance of these combatants,

can political combatants, trying to -- i mean it is frankly, it is racism of condescension. that they believe the audience for those kinds of remarks will not be appalled by that language. and will not understand who aoc truly is. as she indulges in that kind of language. >> that is absolutely right. it is one thing that gets me very frustrated. anyone in congress that says the things he -- things they've been saying, to vilify i.c.e. , that carry out the very laws that congress has enacted, it is not right. it is irresponsible and misinformed. if congress does not like the laws, that they've entrusted and mandated i.c.e.then congress needs to change the laws.

stop vilifying the law-enforcement agency responsible for carrying out the laws. they need to start looking at their own issues and why they are not doing what needs to be done to safeguard this country. lou: and of course enforcing those laws is counter to everything that the chamber of commerce stands for. which is cheap labor and wide open borders, irrespective of the harm it does. the working men and women, small business in this country. the ignorance of the chamber and the koch brothers. it is palpable and it is propelling. obviously, the interest of both the republican democratic rino establishments. >> lou, it's a great point and these migrants are coming here and they have two pay money to take this trip with a cartel, a billion-dollar industry, the individuals coming here, their exploitation doesn't stop at the border. once they get in the united

states, they continue to be exploited. whether it's from sexual exploitation, whether it is being forced to take jobs at a lower wage. this is absolutely part of this is not just national security threat but also a humanitarian threat. bias focusing on interior enforcement we will send a message if you come here illegally, you will be removed. i believe that is a humane issue. that is a humane -- we do not want them taken up perilous track and this is what so frustrating for the american people need to understand this. lou: the american people i truly believe do understand. the confusion is for someone of the illegal immigrants that are told by the, primarily the radical dems, the ngo 's and nonprofits working every day as you well know and the iron triangle and in mexico, trying to drive more illegal immigrants from central america. and yes, mexico into this country illegally. with full support of course of the mexican drug cartels as they continue to smuggle these

illegals and make billions of dollars smuggle deadly drugs into this country and make billions of dollars. and sex trafficking, making billions of dollars. these are the enemies of i.c.e. and of this country and it is unfortunate that people like aoc, rashida tlaib and ilhan omar have no respect for the reality which is exactly that, they are siding with the cartels in their extraordinary criticism of i.c.e.mark morgan, thank you, sir. you are the right man for the job at the right time and we wish you all the very best. great success. >> thank you. lou: mexico city overwhelmingly passed the usmca. you also want to put that into a song. the usmca. making it the first country to ratify the agreement, the final vote in mexico senate, 114 - 4. and up next, joe biden under

fire from some of his opponents in the race for the 2020 democratic nomination. his remarks about of course, civility, nothing will create more incivility than talking about civility in the democratic party. yes, the booming trump economy is a bit of a problem for them as well. and tonight, a great white shark, is always a great white shark, isn't it? some fishermen having the scare of a lifetime and we have got the video of the nighttime. stay with us, we will be back with that and much more after these quick messages. stay with us. get ready for the insurance-themed experience of a lifetime. it's "progressive on ice." everything you love

orlando last night. letting cnn know exactly what they think of the antitrust network. cnn, apparently, about as courageous as they are objective. watch this. >> this was a defining moment in american history. ask them right there.

this was our chance to reclaim our government. >> all right we been watching the president kick of his reelection bid, is in a state for about six minutes. within two minutes he did talk about the economy, within four minutes it was a tax on the media.lou: really, i think it is true but cnn sucks is what they couldn't handle at cnn. but -- by the way, applicable meant everyone that cnn sucks written out as is being chanted has a special quality to it. after that the network never went back to covering the president's rally. choosing a analysis. which is antitrust. recent comments from joe biden have him under fire tonight. from both sides of the aisle. the former vice president called for civility. i mean, he finally remember his

time with segregationists saying quote - i was in a caucus with james owe eastland, he never called me boy, he always called me son. ethan was once known as the voice of the whitesow. joe biden also talked about former georgia senator, herman -- who argued against racial immigration.joe biden is also trying to rewrite a little modern history. he tweeted last night, let's declare president trump inherited a growing economy from the obama biden administration. now he's in the process of squandering it. biden is from some distant economic planet. he ignored the mountain of empirical, positive economic evidence since election day 2016. the s&p 500 up 37 percent, nasdaq 50 percent, stocks gained $9 trillion in market value.

though trump presidency creating 5 million more than 5 million jobs. and yes, he is doing exactly what he said he would do. he is bringing back manufacturing jobs to the united states. and yes, he is restoring prosperity to all americans, the lowest unemployment rates for hispanics, for blacks, for asians in this country, ever. all-time record. in women very close to a record low unemployment rate. the dimension of the middle class is growing now instead of shrinking as it was under obama biden? joe biden puts it, the obama biden economy. join us tonight for a trump campaign manager, cory lewandowski. he was there lesson attending the president's reelection campaign kickoff rally. lastly in orlando and it looked like a lot of fun. the energy, extraordinary and we are having a lot on the left

saying that the size of the rally shouldn't matter. how many people earned attendance patient draw any conclusions from that, what do you think? >> of course they're saying that because when you get joe biden puts 100 people in the room he says size doesn't matter. when donald trump was 25,000 people inside the arena and 50,000 more outside the arena, people who came from as far away from california who spent two days camping outside, i was down there in florida yesterday. it was a torrential downpour. not one person left the outside they cannot wait to get inside. last night was 1/550 rally with the president since he came down the escalator and what i can tell you is i bet there probably 500 and it was the loudest arena i've ever been to in my life when he said, make america great again or keep america great, the car was fired up, democrats have no message. that is what donald trump will win. lou: i want to turn quickly to

the polls because apparently they don't metal either.the new york times is the donald trump growing chances for victory despite the polling against him, then out comes the poll today showing that over 50 percent of the folks polled believe he will ring reelection. that is a stunner for folks over at cnn who were heading away from the rally. things are looking up for the president. and nearly every quarter, people forget only as a political race, the president has a country to run and he is running it superbly. >> the president has created 3.1 percent real wage growth. there are more americans working as you said than ever before. and i flew back just today with the president. we talked about. the 6 million new jobs a greater, 600,000 manufacturing jobs he is brought back and look what mexico did today.

they ratified, took the first step in ratifying the usmca. all of those things make our economy stronger and better than when he took over. that is where he'll get reelected because more people are working today than ever. the democrats don't want to talk about that. they have no message, the message of socialism, donald trumps messages capitalism. >> you're right, they have no message at all. as a matter of fact they are afraid that if they quit screaming with their higher -- their hair on fire that people will discover they are absently full of it. and absently bereft of any kind of decency, originality of thinking. or any concern whatsoever.for the national interest. i mean there's just not an issue where they land on the national interest and concern about american citizens, the middle class. i mean there absolutely absent

without permission.>> the democrats have become the party of pro-abortion. and illegal immigration. that is what their three prongs of the platform are. they want to go back to the obama biden economy. absolutely, that we devastating to this country. more people are working because of the tax cuts donald trump is put in place and the deregulation at the federal government level. this lash of the red tape which is held their boots on small business owners neck for the last 30 years. he is fulfilling the promises he laid out, last night was indication and this is why. being with the present for the last 24 hours, he knows what he's been able to deliver and there's a lot more to go but he's delivering a promise he made and that's why they are so afraid of him because politicians don't normally do that. he is doing it. lou: he is doing it and he also has real strong coincidental forces at work. he is a democratic party that

is absolutely confused and confounded. they don't know what to do with their coalition. one of the things are going to have to figure out is how do you rationalize a party? that supports 60 million abortions since roe v wade while at the same time calling for open borders and claim that we are dependent on 50 to 60 million illegal and legal immigrants coming into this country. during the same period. it makes no sense at all. and so i don't know what they're going to do. they're completely out of step with reality. the facts do not support them. they are on the wrong side of history and up against the toughest possible president they can imagine to try to unseat. >> in the greatest counterpunch we've seen as a politician. sony bypasses the fake news meeting and takes the message

directly to the american people. that is why cnn cutaway last night.because they want to share with their small viewership but the president has been able to accomplish. they don't want to give them that platform of the american people know it and what they know and i travel country all the time, this president is for legal immigration. he wants people to do things legally but we will crackdown and we will build the wall on the southern border. 400+ miles by this time next year. >> have to make one observation and question one part of what you said about why they cutaway. i personally think that some of their commentators may have needed a quick break so they pulled away so they could break into tears after watching the president for a few moments. realizing just how extraordinarily narrow their chances are. cory, great to see you. >> thank you. lou: much more after this break. stay with us. small business insurance? huh-uh. maybe that's a song. yeah, maybe.

protestant hong kong could have china xi jinping concerned

about what happens in mainland china next. joining us tonight gordon chang, columnist, author, senior fellow at the gate start institute. gordon, really and unrest and civil disobedience and demonstrations and protests in hong kong. it could lead to a people in beijing? >> that is what people in beijing are worried about people you have are people in the streets in hong kong sending out messages that i think will resonate throughout the world including in china. most important thing, on sunday we had 2 million people on the streets reminding us of the nature of the communist regime. that is a warning. a warning to wall street, u.s. chamber of commerce, american corporate in washington and elites. and if we ignore that is to our own peril. lou: how are you to recognize it? we will not ignore but what to do with it?>> we have to understand that people in hong kong right now are saying look,

agreements with china don't mean anything. it has lots -- lou: we found that out in trade talks with china. they reneged on a deal that had been all but completed with the united states! the demonstrations in hong kong again, how should the influence our perceptions and our reaction toward the communist chinese? >> i agree with you, we should not need it but unfortunately, we delivered to president trump 661 american companies and trade associations saying, please mr. trump, let's have a trade-in with the chinese. you have this -- spoon you propose to have a vested interest in it? >> ofcourse not. we lou: no one knows that better than this present. >> big-box -- spoon walmart at one point, i do not know if it is exactly true today but at one point was the third leading export market by itself for

chinese products. walmart by itself. and now we have the walmart ceo trying to explain how the economy works to president trump! it is outrageous. the ceo, i mean he should straighten himself out. >> you and we have the g 20 coming up. the reading of all the pressure on president trump right now is because they want trump to concede to xi jinping at the osaka g 20 at the end of next week. lou: getting donald trump, maybe someone to talk to chuck schumer nancy pelosi, robert mueller, jerry nadler about just how easy it is to get him to cede to something. the fact is, he is pushing straight ahead for what he is certain is in the national interest in trade. what should be done in response to what we are watching, this is a human rights issue in hong kong.where the hell is the

united nations?where are the concerned euros were trying to hold together that common market of theirs, the european union. wes and where are the corporate elites on this? lou: you know where they are, they are writing letters, strong letters demanding that the united states government turn over public policy to their bottom line. >> it gets even worse. american companies, you have google, intel, qualcomm, they want to give huawei a reprieve. they've had one reprieve the middle of august. i can sort of understand that. but no more reprieves. these guys want two years worth of exemptions for huawei. it is absolutely wrong! lou: not only two, we had the acting director of omb to ask for four years.they wanted to double that to four years the u.s. firms wouldn't be

discomforted in any way by having to act in the national interest, not in the interest of their bottom line. >> important thing you have to remember that beijing uses huawei to still technology, to take data, break sanctions, all the rest of it. it is a national security threat, this company huawei and you cannot have -- lou: sowa zte, so is every chinese company because ultimately they are working with the pla. that we understand. the question becomes, this a country that has not acted on the basis of focus, human rights issues since china handed the wto. two decades of not acting to support human rights in china and now, we are confronted with the reality that china is a communist or authoritarian

nation. and we've had american presidents in the past, 1972, 1989, 1999 where we rescued chinese communists. now you have -- lou: do think a chinese, a trade deal with china would basically be following in that -- >> absolutely we do not need 1/4 rescued chinese commies appeared we've had -- lou: the president in your opinion should? >> he should not sign a trade deal. simple as that. we've had too many presidents in the past who put the interest of the communist party out of american workers, american businesses and sometimes american security. it has got to end. >> gordon chang, good to have you here. >> thank you. lou: up next, tom fitton joins me to take up the obama state determined efforts to target president trump as candidate, and the endless corruption. right after these quick messages. we will be right back. lios

to your goals and needs. some only call when they have something to sell. fisher calls regularly so you stay informed. and while some advisors are happy to earn commissions whether you do well or not. fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.

whoa.

travis in it made it. it's amazing. oh is that travis's app? it's pretty cool, isn't it? there's two of them. they're multiplying. no, guys, its me. see, i'm real. i'm real! he thinks he's real. geico. over 75 years of savings and service. lou: desperate housewives dems believe they may have found a way around the west executive privilege. they are planning to target allies of the president who never worked for them in the white house. former trump campaign manager for example cory lewandowski, former new jersey governor chris christie, former trump campaign chairman paul manafort, all reportedly being considered as targets to be required to give testimony.

i mean, the radical dems just don't give up, do they? the most indecent, it is an appalling bunch. it is disgusting. judicial watch has uncovered new documents that show that discredited steele dossier being funneled through john kerry state department, emails dating back to september 2016. the communications about the phony dossier between assistant secretary of state victoria newland, special coordinator, jonathan reiner and incoming house majority whip, -- national security advisor, danial silverberg and training us to make sense of it is tom fitton, good to have you with us. you cannot be serious. john kerry. the national security aide -- working together with christopher steele, this is,

tells it is preposterous and it couldn't have happened. >> christopher steele had an in with the state department years even before the 2016 elections. he knew this jonathan guy going back sometime. he was helping him according to the documents we have. then once the dossier came up, he conveyed that to the senior state department official, victoria newland. and then newland is already talk about that with house democrats, other documents we have show that the state department was a key area or key agency in the antitrust efforts, shepherding the dossier, not only to the congress, but to the justice department. even through christopher steele. we think that he has the one dossier no, the state department sending his own material separate to congress. if the ag bill barr is going to

look at the scene is not only look at doj, fbi, nsa, cia, state department is the middle of a storm when it comes to this. lou: he want to look at the senate intelligence committee. he will need as well to look at how the john mccain got his hands on the steele dossier. and how is it that he is sitting there working with a former agent of michigan six i security conference who is the person designated for him to hand over the dossier to the fbi.which he does. ray little discussion about that path through the intelligence agencies of our so-called allies. it's pretty stunning stuff for there not to have been any significant public discussion of all of this. at this late date! >> and it explains why have the sort of desperate activity by the house democrats to harass the presidents team even further with this ridiculous

consideration of trying to bypass executive privilege which won't work. because -- lou: is not only indecent is beneath contempt and it is also just stupid what they are doing. it just, the democrats get dumber and the republicans, house republicans, there are a handful that are fighting for this president.but those republicans need to stand as one and say that you will leave this president the hell alone. in the senate republicans look like complete buffoons and i'm looking at lindsey graham who should be protecting the president and having a counter flits against the morons that run the house intelligence committee and the house judiciary. >> yeah -- lou: do you disagree? >> you should crank up the committee and investigate what went on with this. the democratic-controlled intelligence committee and i don't say that likely given the republicans run the senate, is

obviously harassing trump. senator graham has to step in the gap, i agree. but quickly on the democrats, the flak they are throwing up is designed to protect themselves from scrutiny. forget about investigating the investigators, we need to be investigating congress about its role in the anti-trump coup which in my view, continues through abuse of power targeting his irs forms, confidential irs data, harassing generally, the reason they are doing this because they don't want the world to stop and focus on their misconduct, their political party misconduct in engendering spy gate. >> of all the noise and all the shiny objects to send to earth what's left? nothing but a president that has historic success in the democratic party that is rancid and politically corrupt beyond

from her own party that congress should censure president trump. >> i think it's a way out. if you're going to go you have to go. the goods are there, you must impeach. and censure is nice but it is not with the violations of the constitution, should we decide that's the way to go. lou: if you can figure out what she's doing. lease the 2019 rx 350 for $399/month for 36 months. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. i come face-to-face with a lot of behinds. so i know there's a big need for new gas-x maximum strength. it relieves pressure, bloating and discomfort fast. so no one needs to know you've got gas. gas-x. with a lot of other young couples.

policy analyst at the independent women's forum and jason jones, retired captain from the texas department of public safety intelligence and counter terrorism division. good to have you both with us. patrice -- >> thank you. lou: patrice, we appreciate it i apologize for your name. you can reciprocate and we will even it up today. i want your thoughts about the situation that we have were now the president has ordered enforcement in the interior of our immigration laws, chuck schumer having, he created two fanciful sources to say it is impossible to do. mark morgan, gives you the very clear impression that it is not impossible at all, your

thoughts? >> i think the president is prioritizing enforcement of our laws. i'm there 44 million immigrants in this country, three out of four of them are here legally and have gone through the correct channels. that includes actual citizens such as myself. for those 10 million who have come here illegally, i think it is a message that we no longer going to tolerate that kind of breaking the law to come here. and the reason we have an immigration system and if you want to change and we certainly can change immigration system, this is saying that we need to stop the flood and the attraction, the magnet that is drawing people here illegally. lou: it is in on thing. jason, to think that a line with the mexican drug cartels who are driving a little immigrants across the border, smuggling them, deadly drugs by tens of billions of dollars and tens of thousands of lives of

americans lost. that there along with the chamber of commerce, the democratic party in particular. the koch brothers, wall street. this seems to be a complete denial in this country that what they are doing is supporting drug cartels, the deadliest in the world. your thoughts? >> we've got some real challenges when it comes to the mexican cartels. looking at them today as they are, which really is global networks that are acting as terrorist organizations around the world. it may stun your audience that the cartel is in 54 nations around the world. cartel -- new generation is in over 42 nations around the world. they have gone through a quantum leap in capabilities and tradecraft that they've learned from former special forces. also what they learned which is a designated terrorist organization. when we think of the cartels, you know one of the things we have to realize is there are

effects on american people and how it affects the folks every single day. and look at them for what they are today, not for what we remember them as. which is drug cartels because that is something they do, it is not what they are any longer. lou: right, they are in every aspect of what is going across that border.for the united states that is drugs, that is sex trafficking and smuggling illegal immigrants. patrice, your thoughts about what we can do to awaken people to what's really going on. chuck schumer saying it is impossible to enforce our interior immigration laws. as if we are not talking about people who broke the law. you have already received due process and under a judges order to be removed from the country. >> yes, it is highly than they have broken the law and these are people who have been told time and time again it is time for them to go home. i really think that when you're

talking to women in particular, highlighting and underscoring the fact that illegal immigration hurts and harms women. when we look at the southern border, it is a travesty that you have one third of women being sexually assaulted on the dangerous trip from central america. when you highlight the impact on children. we talked about human trafficking. talk about renting children to be able to bring people over the border and those are children who should not be put in harm's way. i also think we need to highlight the hypocrisy on the left that comes to the humanitarian crisis. everyone was concerned about children being separated from their parents but now they are silent when it comes to how the children are being manipulated, taken advantage of and abused and used. i think we begin to point that out, hopefully then there will be more political will to direct the issue. lou: is quite a contrast is in it, to see our new york governor, andrew cuomo, jason, signing into law, the right of

illegal immigrants to have driver's licenses which is citizenship in many cases. and president trump demanding that the laws be enforced and actually turning to i.c.e. and saying we will now pursue those who have violated laws, defied due process and defied judges who have ordered them removed. this is a present with great courage taking on not only the iron triangle and the gangs and the cartels, the powerful global gangs as you point out. we have not had a present with this kind of courage and by the way, his party does not have his courage. they have not grown a spine yet. they will not even permit them to follow in his shadows. >> yeah, i will tell you, i was just in texas two days ago and i was stunned for the first time, to be on the rio grande river and to be able to see

forces from mexico on the water. i'd never seen that in my career and it's all directly as a result of the good efforts of the president to get mexico to stand up and start working to help us at the border. because it was stunned the american people to realize of all the board operations we've been doing along the southwest border, we do not get assistance from the mexican government forces. by him making this coalition, building the relationships and sending the new national guard forced onto the southern border to start helping to reinforce and work with us, with this over the horizon approach as we call it, this is exactly the start. time will tell if this is going to be successful but at least for the first time, the mexican government is being held accountable by this president to do something. >> and as you suggested it is early but we've already seen a 13 percent decline from may and illegal immigration traffic. not even close to enough but a

beginning. we hope as you both suggest, something far better that will make both nations stronger. patrice, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> jason, thank you. we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> good night from new york. trish: president trump putting iran on notice saying the united states was indeed ready to strike iran for shooting down an american drone. but at the last moment the president called off the attack because of possible civilian casualties. president trump: we are sitting with the possible death of 150 people and i didn't like the. i didn't think it was proportionate. trish: my intel on why the president made the right move and what he need to do next. socialist and presidential hopeful ber
