campaign raised in the third quarter. he has less than $9 million in cash on hand, four times lower than the money that bernie sanders has. he spent about $1 million on private jet travel. save those bucks as your popularity is waning. >> keep an eye on housing. housing numbers look bad. it's important to watch that sector. maria: right to stuart. thanks so much. stuart, i owe you huge for yesterday and today. have a great show. stuart: okay. good morning, maria. thanks very much. good morning, everyone. a brexit deal not yet a done deal. at this point it's a draft agreement which still needs the approval of the british parliament. but this is, in my opinion, the most promising development in many years. a key point here is no return to a hard border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland. let's bring this home for a minute. this draft agreement means the brits could get out of the european union and would then be able to negotiate a big trade deal with america.

a new special relationship, boris and trump, perfect together, maybe. we'll see. investors like it. stock prices jumped when the brexit news came through. we backed off a little since, but the dow is still going to open up about 70 points, up 9 for the s&p and up, what, 34 for the nasdaq. the market clearly ignoring the really toxic politics so clearly on display in washington, d.c. i've got two stocks to focus on today. new tech netflix, old tech, ibm. they are going in opposite directions. start with netflix. we were told they had to sign up seven million new subscribers. well, they didn't. they missed. yet the stock is going straight up. my point here is, beware the expectations game. ibm, going straight down. their turnaround is not going well. we will ask if this is the time for new leadership.

on the calendar this morning, president trump leaves d.c., heads for texas. he's leaving the place where nothing gets done and where impeachment is an obsession, and he's going to a place where people actually get something done. we expect him to have something to say as he leaves the white house. he's got a lot to go at. you will see it all. "varney & company" is about to begin. stuart: stock of the day, let's start there. look at it go. netflix, we are talking about. yes, they reported big profit. the stock is going straight up, $23 higher premarket, $309. netflix analyst tom forte is with us. tom, you're not on board with this netflix rally. i know you're not. what's wrong? >> basically the stock's going to have a good day today because as you pointed out, expectations were very low for the september quarter, following their surprise disappointment for the

june quarter. the big challenge for netflix, though, as we wrote in our white paper, is today only three of the large technology and media companies have their subscription video on demand offering available to consumers. netflix and amazon and hulu. well, three is about to become five, with apple and disney plus launching next month, and then sooner or later, you will have hbo and nbc universal. so in a much more crowded for subscription video on demand services, this is going to be problematic for netflix. additionally, you are seeing huge arms race for content. netflix acknowledged in their call last night that popular shows are 30% more expensive than a year ago. they will have to warmly embrace advertising to pay for content in the future because of this arms race. stuart: all right, you are throwing a little cold water on the stock but it is still the stock of the day, and premarket it's up over 20 bucks. thanks for joining us.

we appreciate it. thanks very much. big news out of europe. the british as in the uk, and europeans as in the european union, they have agreed to a brexit deal. it's a draft agreement. got that. nigel farage is the leader of the brexit party and he joins us now. nigel, why are you saying parliament should reject this deal? why? >> it's not a new deal, stuart. it's mrs. may brought this new eu treaty, no deal, but a treaty, back to us a year ago. our parliament quite rightly rejected it three times. what boris has now done is to amend it, get some changes, to put lipstick on the pig. some things are better about it, some things are worse about it. and yes, i would love us to be free, to have an all-encompassing trade deal with the usa, something the trump administration are very very keen on. let me promise you if what boris is negotiating today goes

through, it will be at least 2022 or 2023 before there's any trade deal with the usa. we will be trapped forever under this agreement with environmental laws, with employment laws, even taxation is mentioned here. so it's brexit in name only. stuart: okay. if the deal is presented to parliament as it will be soon, and it is rejected by parliament, then what happens? >> then we extend again. we extended already, as you know. we were supposed to leave on march 29th. we were supposed to leave on halloween. we would extend again. but i would rather extend than go for a bad new treaty that means we will never be free. and into that extension, we might just get a general election, where the british public, talkiwill tell the poli class what they really think about them. stuart: thanks for joining us on a very important day. always appreciate it.

see you again soon. all right. lot of news this morning. let's get to the market, right at it. here's gary kaltbaum joining us today. a draft brexit agreement, some pretty good profit reports. looks to me like the market wants to go up. what do you say? >> it will be up on the open. keep in mind we have like 3,000 companies reporting in the next few weeks and that's going to tell the tale. if we get a bunch of ibms bad and a bunch of netflixes, good. it's now wait and see mode. i think earnings are okay, nothing special, but i think one thing stands out for me and i wrote about it this week, is we have our central bank doing more quantitative easing, and if you go back the last ten plus years, every time that's happened, markets have liked it. so we are on breakout watch for the big four indices. our biggest problem is half the market is not participating in any rally, so it's going to be narrow. you've just got to stay with what's working, and working very

strong. stuart: before we leave you, you are talking about a breakout situation, where you just might get a pop to new highs. that's a distinct possibility to gary kaltbaum. >> for the dow, s&p, nasdaq and nasdaq 100, yes. everything else, no. small cap stocks, midcaps, no chance. transports, no chance. foreign markets are also underperforming big-time. just the big four. stuart: can i make this point real fast. this is a market that's going up this morning despite it all, and i'm referring to the toxic politics that were revealed in full yesterday. the market doesn't care about that, does it? >> no. because when everybody gets to work today, they look at earnings and interest rates and this has been going on awhile. i think it's the worst it's been in the last three years, but i hardly pay attention when it comes to -- i pay attention, but when it comes to markets, i look at everything else. stuart: got it. gary kaltbaum, thank you very much, sir. busy day. we appreciate you being here, as

always. let me get back to individual stocks. i'm going to start with ibm. that is going to be a drag on the dow at the opening bell. five straight quarters of falling revenue for ibm. now, susan, this is raising questions about the leadership. susan: she's been there for seven years since 2012, besides one, maybe two quarters, sales have been falling each and every time they report earnings. falling sales once again, fifth in a row. we also had earnings per share which is what they like to count on an adjusted basis for profit, actually coming in better than expected. she's trying to transition a 100-year-old company into this new i.t. landscape. it bought red hat for $34 billion. this is the first quarter, by the way, after that acquisition so they can only count for half of the revenue. still, ibm is struggling, trying to get into the hybrid cloud. they are number five when it comes to cloud computing behind amazon and microsoft. believe it or not, they actually got into the cloud first but didn't develop it fast enough,

like the rest of the players, and this stock accounting for 60 points off of the dow this morning. stuart: just reminds me of some of the great old names that have failed to make a serious -- susan: general electric. stuart: thank you. that's exactly what i was thinking of. ge -- susan: u.s. steel, some may argue as well. big blue. stuart: eastman kodak. thank you, producer. susan: that went under. stuart: totally so. let's move on. we have some rather sad news to report for you this morning. congressman elijah cummings has died and president trump tweeting just a few moments ago. here it is. my warmest condolences to the family and many friends of congressman elijah cummings. i got to see first-hand the strength, passion and wisdom of this highly respected political leader. his work and voice on so many fronts will be very hard, if not impossible, to replace. chad pergram on capitol hill, our producer there, chad, what does his passing mean for the impeachment inquiries on the

president? reporter: there were three committees looking into impeachment, the house intelligence committee, the foreign affairs committee and the oversight committee. cummings was the chair of that panel. every subpoena, every request for documents, every request for a witness, we have had the chairs of those three committees sending that out. elliott engel from foreign affairs, adam schiff from intelligence and of course, elijah cummings. they have been having these closed door interviews with a lot of witnesses over the past couple of weeks here. congress has been out of session until tuesday. and we had seen schiff most days. we had seen elliott engel a little bit. we had not seen elijah cummings. his district is just about an hour north of here in inner city baltimore, from washington, d.c. so it wasn't that rare that we wouldn't see him here but his name was on each of the documents. now the question is, who might step in for elijah cummings. i would look at caroline maloney from new york and maybe jared connelly from virginia. stuart: will it slow the impeachment investigation down?

reporter: so far this is in adam schiff's wheelhouse and steny hoyer said he thinks they could have this wrapped up by the end of the year. stuart: chad pergram, thank you. see you soon. back to your money. the market is going to open higher. not a huge rally but we are going to go up, 70 points up for the dow, maybe 30, 31 for the nasdaq. president trump's going to head to texas later. he's going to celebrate the opening of a new factory and he's going to hold a big rally tonight. he will be leaving the white house roughly an hour from now. we will watch to see if he speaks to reporters. joe biden's campaign hemorrhaging money. would you believe he's spending a fortune on private jets? he was the democrat frontrunner but there are serious questions about whether he can make it to the finish line.

stuart: all right. higher profits, better revenues coming in to morgan stanley. by the way, the bank says it made a lot of money at its trading desk. that goes down well. the stock is up, what, 3.6%.

nice gain. look at the stock price of phillip morris. it gained market share against other tobacco companies and says its e-cig business is doing well for them. the stock is up 2%. let's get to chicago. parents are scrambling there for child care because there's a teachers strike. lauren: 400,000 students. where do they go today? because the teachers union, 25,000 strong, not teaching. the schools are open. if you need -- there's no buses but if you can get your child to the school, there will be someone there, maybe a principal, they are non-union, to watch over things. a lot of parents don't feel comfortable about that. they are scrambling to find where to bring their kids today so they can go to work. why are the teachers on strike? this is the first strike since 2012. they do want higher pay but it's more than that. they want more nurses, more psychologists, more staff in the schools and they want smaller class sizes. some of these classes are over 40 kids.

stuart: where's the money going to come from? they haven't got it. chicago's in dire financial straits. lauren: i know. we'll see how long this goneone goes. this is a mess. stuart: you feel for the parents. what do you do about child care now. what do you do. what a story. we have negative headlines on the biden campaign. the daily beast says the campaign is bleeding cash, spending big on private jets. that's the report. "wall street journal" columnist dan henninger says biden isn't going to make it to the finish line for the 2020 race. all right. joining us now is herman cain. what have you got to say about joe biden making it to the finish line, bleeding cash? >> it's too early to call. i remember when the late john mccain was running for president, and they had counted him out. the advantage joe has is that a lot of the other democrat

presidential wanna-bes don't have, he has a lot of the old guard democrats who owe him favors. by the time we get to the time to select a delegate, select a candidate, you don't know how many of those favors he's going to call in. i simply say it's too early to tell. now, it is expensive running a presidential campaign and i can't tell whether the cost he's spending on jets is too much or too little but you have to have that in order to get in front of the people that you need to, but it's just too early to tell. stuart: good one. next one, "south park" mocking lebron james over his comments about china. roll tape, please. >> we have a right to free speech. >> yes, we do have freedom of speech but at times there are ramifications for the negative that can happen when you're not thinking about that and you're only thinking about yourself. >> what's going on, kids? we don't want another incident here, okay?

>> they try to take people's lump, they don't realize it harms people financially, emotionally and spiritually. stuart: "south park" taking him on, for sure. it was kind of funny. you have a lot of american athletes quite willing to slam president trump and not go to the white house and really bad-mouth him, but those same american athletes are unwilling to criticize at all a communist dictator in china. what do you make of that? >> well, first of all, it's hypocrisy and i would say those athletes who have written president trump off are not informed of the results. they are acting on perception. secondly, if lebron james' last name was not james, we wouldn't be having all of this uproar. china wouldn't be reacting the way it is. it's a very delicate situation now between hong kong and mainland china, and athletes quite frankly should stay in their lane. i stay in my lane. my lane is politics, economics,

business, prosperity, markets and things of that nature. so if his last name were not james, we wouldn't be having "south park" mocking him and you wouldn't have his name in the news every day. i can't speak to how china is responding to it, but they have a history of not liking that kind of criticism. free speech is something that we have here in this country, but you can't say that about other countries. stuart: by the way, you just laid out a six-lane superhighway right there. that's what you've got going for you. all right, herman, thank you very much, sir. love that smile. see you again soon. back to the market. we are still going up, not a huge rally by any means, but up 60 for the dow, maybe 30 for the nasdaq. we'll be right back. what a time to be alive. the world is customized to you. built for you. so why isn't it all about you, when it comes to your money?

stuart: amazon spending really big on city council races in seattle. they're spending $1.5 million on a city council election? susan: more than any business, any union, when it comes to seattle city council, and all seven seats are up for a vote. the reason is because they want a pro-business council in seattle, their hometown, where their headquarters are. don't forget, two of the

candidates were pro the tax that would have made amazon cough up around $12.5 million each year. this requires companies with over $20 million in sales, you have to pay over, close to $300 per employee that you have. amazon has 45,000 so you do the math. that would have cut into their revenue so yes, that's why they are pouring all this money into the city council race. stuart: they want to avoid something like aoc in new york city. susan: right. and long island city, once again. kicking out those 25,000 high-paying amazon hq2 jobs. yeah. that would probably be better for seattle, too. stuart: they want to avoid that in super far left seattle. check futures, please. we will go up at the opening bell. not a huge rally but going up, 60 on the dow, 30 on the nasdaq. back after this. imagine traveling hassle-free with your golf clubs.

there, has been a frequent guest on this program and she is always, without exception, you said no matter what the state of the market, you have said don't sell, hang in there, it's going up. i will give you kudos because you have been right. >> thank you. fun video to watch. stuart: you weren't expecting that. >> no, i was not. thank you. stuart: you have been with us on the show frequently for a couple years, is it? >> at least a couple years. stuart: i don't think i ever heard you say sell it, stu. sell it. you never have. >> no. stuart: thank you. a lot of people have said sell that microsoft, stuart, because -- >> i like your microsoft stock. i certainly wouldn't tell you to sell that. stuart: okay. all right. look, there's futures. stay with us, please. we want you for the opening bell. i know exactly what you are going to say. look, here we go. i see some nice green arrows. this is the futures market. this is telling us how we are likely to open literally in 20 seconds' time. we've got some pretty solid profit reports to report for you, please. and we've got this draft brexit

agreement which gave a nice boost to stocks early in the day. how that works out, we don't know, but it gave a boost earlier. as you can see, they are clapping and cheering on the big board and the nasdaq. that means we are about to open trading this thursday morning. we're off and going. it's 9:30. let's have an early look, an early check. i see a nice bit of green there, left-hand side. right from the get-go we are up, what, about a quarter percent, 50, 60 points up for the dow industrials. i can see right there, 27 of the dow 30, no, make that -- can't do the math. most of them are green. can i sththat? most of them are green. up 70 points for the dow industrials. two stocks we will pay very close attention to this morning, number one, netflix. right out of the gate, it's up 19 bucks at $305. look at ibm. this is old tech playing off against new tech, netflix. old tech ibm is down 4%. that's a big drop right there.

morgan stanley, i think they're up nicely today. we've got a gain there of 3.5%. they made a lot of money on their trading desk. how about that. the stock is up 3.7%. phillip morris, tobacco company, gaining market share in the tobacco industry. they say their e-cig business is doing very well. the stock is up, not much, 50 cents. $79 on that. the dow is up 75 points as we speak. got to get back to netflix. i'm going to call it the stock of the day. higher profit but subscribers fell short of expectations. okay. here we go. i've got a problem with this. we were told oh, they've got to have seven million new subscribers. that's what analysts said. they expected seven million new subscribers. we didn't get seven million. we got 6.7. what happened? the stock goes through the moon. susan: at least you added subscribers in the u.s. as opposed to losing them like you did for the first time in ten years last time around.

it is, i'm sorry, it's an expectations game. michelle will back me up on this. because when you have a whisper number of around six million, the stock already lost 22% going into this earnings report. this is better than expected. stuart: wait, wait, wait. what do you think our viewers are thinking right now? oh, the whisper number. you think they take that seriously? susan: they should. big money managers move the stock, unfortunately. when you have expectations of what is anticipated and it comes in better than expected, that's when you get gains in the stock. that's what you're looking at today. stuart: i see i'm shouted down. >> isn't that what all earnings calls are often like, it's about expectations. susan: thank you. >> about netflix, yes, it's about u.s. user growth but let's face it, it's really more about i think the international growth. because the u.s. growth eventually is going to plateau and the international market could be explosive. stuart: i think lauren wants to get into this.

lauren: i do. i do. we have all this competition coming to streaming but are you really going to get rid of netflix? they are kleenex to tissues, clorox to bleach and chapstick to lip balm. they may struggle but they are way ahead of this game. stranger things dominated. is it the i thought y stuart: i thought you wanted to comment about expectations. susan: they raised their prices. the most popular subscription is $12.99 a month. they are getting more money per subscriber, up 16% in the quarter. that's pretty good. [ speaking simultaneously ] that's probably helping the stock today. stuart: the stock is going straight up despite the fact they missed expectations is not the report i want to hear. i want to hear revenue went up 16% because a lot of people are buying the top line streaming service. that's what i want to hear. susan: that, and they beat on expectations. stuart: have a nice day.

okay. we shall agree to a deuce on this. look at dow component ibm. five straight quarters of falling revenue. michelle, is it time for ginni romety to leave? >> in terms of red hat, i personally do not think it's played out yet. i know you were disagreeing a little. i actually don't like the fact we put so much pressure on these ceos that they have to deliver in such quick time. yes, seven years seems like a long time but you have board members sitting on there for years and years and years. to me, i feel sometimes we need to lessen the exposure on the ceo or lessen the harshness on the ceo and question the board. susan: the boards don't make the day-to-day decisions and drive the boat. >> she's been there for seven years. she's only had one to two quarters of rising sales during that time. most ceos get a tenure of five years. she's had seven years to prove it. she hasn't been able to do that just yet.

i know red hat is still playing out, but when you spend $34 billion to get a century-old company going once again, i think you have two quarters to play with. >> you're harsh this morning. stuart: the key question is this. would you buy ibm stock if r rometty left the leadership role? >> i wouldn't. we have ibm in our indexes. would i buy it outright, a ton of it, probably not. stuart: got it. morgan stanley, they are the latest bank to report strong earnings this week, with the exception of goldman sachs all the banks are doing pretty well. what does that tell you about the strength of the economy? susan: it's all about the consumer. you saw that goldman sachs continues to try to break into the retail banking sector because they recognize that trading is really no more and it's all about the consumer. jpmorgan said the consumer is extremely strong, they are

paying their debts and spending. i think that's all positive things. stuart: next is johnson & johnson. they are offering billions of dollars to settle opioid litigation. how much? lauren: $4 billion is the report. a lot of people thought it would be more than that so investors are cheering that $4 billion number. this would be to settle 2,000 lawsuits about their contribution to the opioid epidemic across the country. they have already settled some litigation with certain states and counties, but this $4 billion number is appeasing some investors. stuart: again, it's a number, a solid number. you can wrap your arms around it. you can know whether the company can deal with it or not. lauren: remember, they had solid earnings earlier this week saying the consumer was strong. >> let's face it, health care isn't going anywhere. buy this dip in johnson & johnson. stuart: okay. check the big board. we have a gain but again, it's dissipated. we are now up 30 points but still above 27,000. yes, there is a tentative

agreement in the gm strike. there's going to be a news conference next hour. the stock is back to $36 a share. look at southwest airlines. look at boeing. southwest says it is pushing back the return of the max jet to february. boeing is virtually unchanged. southwest is same story. not much movement. union pacific, their profit fell pretty short again of expectations on lower crude oil shipments. the cstock is down 1.6%. alcoa gave a not so rosy forecast. it's pretty clean-cut. here's what they're saying. they may sell a billion dollars worth of assets and the stock goes up 9%. that, i can get my hands around. i don't care what analysts expected. on the call they say we are going to sell these assets and the stock goes up. come on. the price of gold, i don't expect it to be above $1500 an ounce and it's not. it's $1497. where's bitcoin? $7,000 or $8,000?

i expect $8,000. i got it. $8,061. oil, i expect to be around $52 a barrel. $52.82. check the ten-year treasury. haven't a clue. no idea what to expect. same as yesterday at this time. 1.75%. activision blizzard, they have given back the money which they took away from the gamer who had money taken off him because he said nice things about hong kong protesters. susan: he was supporting hong kong after he won a tournament over in asia. he's gotten his prize money back. i think he's still suspended, though, for six months along with the two commentators who interviewed him afterwards and allowed him to don the mask. the damage is done, don't you think? when it comes to company culture, you had walkouts in california, you also have gamers saying are you censoring speech for profit, for activision

blizzard given one of your shareholders is one of the largest companies in china? maybe. stuart: there's a related story here about google. employees there are fighting over a hong kong protest video game app. lauren: it's called revolution of our times. basically you can pretend to be a hong kong protesters. google employees are very sensitive to ethical implications. on these messaging boards they are saying we should support the protesters fighting for democracy in hong kong. internal debate going on, not to mention, you know, the game, the money they made in the game, they donated to the protesters. stuart: who would have thought you get all this fallout from protests in hong kong on american companies which do business in china. susan: apple, google, very long list. stuart: there's an epntertainmet company called endeavor. officially it has shelved plans to go public. we will put on the screen some

of the clients they represented. stars across the board here. why have they shelved -- susan: look at the performance of the ipos this year. peloton disappointed. lyft and uber under water still. smile direct down 60% from its debut. it's tough to go public in these markets, especially in this sentiment. so the company, this is hollywood's largest talent agency and they are behind the miss universe and ufc. seems like they don't think this is the right time for them to test the market. i would say a lot of unicorns in this environment with wework not being able to even go public, would agree. stuart: got it. it's 9:40. michelle, you were great again. lauren: never says that to me. stuart: you were great, too. that expectations rant was just terrific. thanks a lot. let's see what the big board is doing after ten minutes of business. we are up about 40 points. that's it. now, yesterday, on this

program, energy secretary rick perry revealed that america is indeed the largest oil and natural gas producer in the world. but the rest of the media totally ignored what the energy secretary had to say. instead, they focused on his comments about impeachment. just one more example about the media's obsession with bringing down the president. i'm going to editorialize on that at 11:00 this morning. the mainstream media likes to throw out the "r" word, recession, when talking about the economy. up next, we have a guest who says we're in great shape, our economy in great shape, and there is no way we get a recession this year or next. he will make his case after this.

stuart: we are 13 minutes in, 48 points higher on the dow industrials, modest rally across the board. i mean modest. here's some breaking news just coming at us. the u.s. ambassador to the european union, gordon sondland, will tell a congressional committee this morning that he was quote, disappointed when president trump told him to work with rudy giuliani on ukraine. sondland will say he disagreed with that decision. okay. let's get back to the markets and more in particular, let's get to the economy. brian wesbury is with us. all right, brian, you say no recession this year, no recession next year. okay. i want to hear your case. remember, this time yesterday, we had a very slight drop in retail sales. that's not good news, is it? >> well, you know, stuart, even if you go back to the 1980s and '90s when the u.s. economy was growing at a 4% rate, even in those years, retail sales would

fall two, three, four months every year. it's a volatile series. if you really dig down underneath, you take out gasoline prices which have fallen, auto sales which have kind of flattened out, and building materials, and the reason you take those things out is they are volatile, the rest of the stuff actually goes into gdp, retail sales are up 8.6% at an annualized rate so far this year. that's the strongest since 1992. so yeah, we have one month's drop but that's not -- stuart: you are looking under the hood, so to speak, and seeing some good stuff in there. okay. let's get back to your assertion, no recession this year, no recession next year. you are really confident about that? >> absolutely. the fed, you know, going back to the '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s, i do not know a recession we have had in the last five decades that wasn't caused by the fed. the fed is not tight.

on top of that, we have had corporate tax cuts, we have had deregulation and all three of those things mean that this economy is going to continue to grow. this quarter, corporate profits are going to be a little weak, because they have a hard comparison to last year. but next quarter, fourth quarter corporate profits will be up about 20% from a year before. when i look at the underlying data, we are looking at an economy that's growing somewhere between 2.5% and 3%, and i think with brexit getting out of the way, with china actually coming to the table, i look at 2020 as being a pretty strong year. stuart: well, that means we are going to enjoy prosperity as we head into the next election, which means democrats have, i think they've got an uphill battle here because they are running against prosperity. that's a tough one. >> oh, totally. and what's interesting is that there are academic models out

there that use the economy to forecast elections, and they show solidly that president trump with a good economy, which i expect to have, is literally, i mean, i don't want to call him a shoe-in, but the bottom line is that these models say that a republican and in this case, it would be president trump, is going to win the election based on the strength in the economy. and -- yeah. go ahead. stuart: i was just going to say, brian wesbury, i don't ever expect to see you pop up on cnn. it's just not going to happen. i don't know whether you want it to. thanks, brian. >> i believe you're right. good to see you, stuart. stuart: you, too. see you soon. okay. it's list time. yes, we have a list. this is a list of the most valuable brands. what's number one? lauren: apple followed by google followed by amazon, microsoft,

stuart, at number four. stuart: wait a minute. is this in the world? lauren: in the world. american technology dominating here. let's look at number six through 10. you can see more american companies. mcdonald's and disney in there as well. facebook, not in the top ten for the first time in quite some time. consider when they were putting this list together, share prices, have they grown, amazon in five years is 450%. also, you know, how is your business growing, how are you justifying your business and its growth in the future. stuart: i remember for decades, coca-cola was the most valuable. lauren: it's number five. stuart: still number five. susan: fallen in market value so that changes the calculation. stuart: america's tech changes everything. it really does. check the dow 30. i think we are going to be pleasantly surprised here. there's a rally across the board. look at that. we have 25 of the dow 30 in the green. they're up. the dow industrials are now up

83 points, 27,085. i'm trying to do the math. we're about 300 points away from the all-time record closing high for the dow industrials. all right. streaming. well, that's been in the news a lot, especially netflix and disney. next, we have a guy who says we are ignoring two sleeping giants who may get into this business. they would be google and facebook. that's interesting. we will let him make his case in a moment. and this is a live look at the white house. the flag is now flying at half staff in honor of congressman elijah cummings. he passed away overnight. he was 68. we'll be right back. oh, wow. yoo have such a great trip. thanks to you, we will. this is why voya helps reach today's goals... ...all while helping you to and through retirement. can you help with these? we're more of the plan, invest and protect kind of help... voya. helping you to and through retirement. i'm working to make each day a little sweeter. adp simplifies hr, benefits, and payroll for magnolia bakery,

stuart: streaming is a theme on this program. we talk about it a lot. when we talk streaming, we think netflix, here comes disney, here comes apple, but our next guest says we are ignoring two sleeping giants in the business. lou schwartz is with us, former chief digital officer at wwe. welcome to the program. >> thank you for having me. stuart: okay. these sleeping giants are, number one, google. are you talking about youtube? is that a streaming service within google? >> youtube is absolutely sort of a streaming service within google. it's actually a large contribution to google's overall

revenues. last year, it contributed $15 billion to google, at a 50% contribution margin. stuart: when i think of streaming, i think i pay a subscription, a per-month fee to watch netflix or whatever. it's not like that with youtube, is it? that's not a per-month subscription fee. >> no. actually, the principal revenue stream for youtube is advertising, which is why google is so enamored with their video service. they also sort of offer to creators the ability to monetize their fees by having their own subscription or direct-to-consumer subscription offering. stuart: are we underestimating youtube's contribution to google in the future? >> it's obviously a big growth driver for google in the future. i think the biggest underestimation is the amount of data that's being collected by google. i think in five years, we are going to look back and see the entities that succeed the most in ott or direct-to-consumer are the ones that are able to

capture the most granular data. stuart: because google knows everything about everybody, and you think that helps them in the future as they use that data to target people, target information to those people? that is the story? >> that's the promise of direct-to-consumer, ott streaming. the ability to personalize the viewing experience. and knowing your behavioral consumption pattern, knowing your interest graph, knowing the types of content that you're interested in consuming and delivering that to you delivers a highly personalized engaging experience that allows google and facebook -- stuart: you apply the same analysis to facebook? because they know everything about everybody. 2.6 billion people around the planet. they can apply that kind of analysis. they don't have a streaming service now, do they? >> they have google watch. they have -- stuart: facebook. >> facebook has facebook watch and facebook live. so they have the ability to retain users and deliver compelling content and monetize

sort of that content at very high levels, because of this granular data and because of their ability to know who you are, who your friends are, whan your friends are watching at any given time. stuart: fascinating. the future of streaming is all about how much data you've got on all those individuals out there and what they want. >> absolutely. stuart: that's the name of the game. fascinating. thank you very much for being with us. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. stuart: google, by the way, is spending $1 billion to build a new campus right in the middle of san jose, california. not everybody is happy about it. the city's mayor will join us in our next hour to respond and maybe push back to the naysayers. we'll see. president trump getting out of the swamp, headed to texas. he's going to a new manufacturing plant run by louis vuitton. talk about a contrast. outside d.c. people are going to work and getting things done. rather different in the nation's capital, isn't it. we'll be right back.

stuart: we are a half hour into the trading session the market is up. not bad, a third of 1% for the dow industrials. a possible brexit deal, it's a draft brexit deal, that is giving stocks a nice boost. so are pretty positive earnings reports. netflix is the stock for the day. subscriber growth was good enough, 6.7 million added last quarter. up it goes. by the way we have a netflix bull on this program at this hour. not right now. it is up 12 bucks. on flipside. very much so, ibm. revenue down for five straight quarters. that is raising questions about continued leadership of rometty. the stock is down 8 bucks. yes it is a dow stock. we expect to get news out of general motors. the union leadership is meeting

on tentative deal to end the strong. we're on the story. right now i have got mortgage rates, thursday, 10:00 in the morning. >> 3.69% for the 30-year fixed. one year, year ago 4.85%. they're going higher but we got encouraging report this morning that future groundbreaking on new homes, much better than expected. freddie mac says this, there has been material weakness in manufacturing and trade uncertainty. but they're very bullish on employment in the sector and homebuilder sentiment. stuart: we're all waiting for resurgence in the entire real estate sector. maybe some early signs it is colling. the big board, no serious reaction to the mortgage rate news or the housing industry news. we're up 77 point as we speak. but we're at 27,078. all right? now this. they couldn't be more opposite could they? washington, d.c., and fort

worth, texas. mr. trump is about to leave one for the other. good he will leave the city where nothing gets done to a state where they are getting a lot done. almost simmic, chaos versus accomplishment. no wonder mr. trump relishes his get out of town trips. a secretive impeachment investigation, a face-to-face confrontation in the white house where the president calls the speaker a third-rate politician. the subpoenas are flying, the insults are flying. the rest of the country looks at our capitol and sees did i function and chaos. outside of d.c., a different story. people go to work to get things done, to earn their money that is the america president trump heads to today. he is going to texas, the state which made america energy independent. the state at the center of the global energy revolution. the state which has so much to do giving us cheap gas and much

lower carbon emissions. it takes hard work to do that. argumentative politicians see almost irrelevant. in the town of keane, texas, the president visit as brand new manufacturing plant run by the french luxury goods maker louis vuitton. they were not offered huge tax breaks. they came because they want to be in the middle of the most dynamic economy in the world, america. what a contrast, d.c. and texas. politicians and bureaucrats. these people really do make america great. come on in please, jason johnson, texas guy who works on the ted cruz campaign. look, there is a lot of talk that texas might go democrat. that it might flip after years in the republican column, it might flip. what do you make of that? >> what i make of that is, you said a moment ago, irony. the difference between washington, d.c., and texas

could not be greater. think about it. you mentioned energy. stuart, do you know that the port of houston is export being 1 1/2 million barrels of oil from west texas to the rest of the world every day. texas is leading the nation in job creation. that building you can see behind me, the capital, one of the things great about that capital, the legislators only meet there for 140 days every other year. when they do, there is one and one thing only they absolutely have to do, is balance the budget. less government, less regulation, more jobs, more opportunity, more freedom. so what is happening? you know what is happening, stuart, they're coming from all over the country here. yet the democrats want to say something is wrong with texas. the people here are telling a different story. stuart: why is the republican senator from texas, senator cornyn, why is he saying this week that the president will be smart to spend more time in

texas? >> because the president coming to texas, first of all, let's step back. there is no doubt, stuart, texas is much more competitive politically today than it was two, four, and 10 years ago. so it is smart for the president to come to the state. it is smart for him to highlight the success he has had in washington. what are those successes? it is mostly when he has been able to get washington out of the american people's way, so they can do what you said a moment ago, get to work. and solve problems. not having politicians do it for them. so him coming here and showing that contrast and also, i would add, pointing out what this cast of characters we saw last night, 12 of them on stage, have elizabeth warren come here and talk about banning fracking, right? have joe biden come here and talk about the new green deal, what that will do to this state, what it will do to people who have great jobs and whose kids are able to go to college

because they can afford it now. we have to have the contrast texans can see it. stuart: one of the problems people move to texas from california and bring their politics with them. that is a problem, isn't it? >> yes, sir. i tell you, i hear this more and more, there are two sets of people coming to texas. there are the texans by choice who came here looking for a job because they know that they're here. they come here looking for freedom. but they're also, to your., stuart, there are a, because of our low regulation, low tax environment, there are a lot of corporations who have relocated and moved to texas and let's be honest, there are a lot of employees then, in some ways felt they didn't have a choice but to come here. so they don't necessarily appreciate the freedoms of texas just yet. we're doing our best to put it on display for them. we're hope we'll keep the state red. stuart: jason johnson. thanks for joining us. >> yes, sir.

stuart: we're focusing on big name stocks today. we're looking at netflix because it has gone straight up. we're looking at this one, ibm. it's a dow stock. it is way down today. nearly eight bucks. 5 1/2%. scott martin joins us now. do you think ibm needs new leadership? >> well, gosh, stuart, you look at revenue trends, i would suggest you're right on with that premise. here is the other funny thing about ibm as you guys mentioned all morning. ibm was a pioneer in the cloud space. their cloud revenues were up in the last quarter, put that up with hardware revenue and it is terrible, they can't make up for terrible revenues on the other two sides. a change at the top might help the company greatly and push the stock back up. stuart: seems to me like the market just wants to go up. we got pretty positive news on brexit. they have got a draft agreement for brits to get out of the european union. most of the earnings reports that i have seen so far have been pretty good.

seems like the market wants to go up. are you with me on that? >> yeah. agree. bank earnings, stuart have been very, very good. i think the market is doing one thing that is key. taking so, so, earnings and good earnings to higher prices in the name. bad earnings with ibm not so great. earnings in line with expectations, even maybe a little below as netflix was, stocks are going up. certainly earnings that blow away are seeing higher stock prices as well. stuart: are you buying anything today? >> not today. we do own netflix. i will note it is already off highs it was at overnight. that is a little bit discouraging. i would tell folks if they're looking at other fang names, i like facebook going into earnings. instagram is dominating. monthly active user numbers should be very good. facebook is my pick the next few weeks. stuart: that is interesting. you keep going back to facebook. all the negative publicity keeps on hammering the company, but the stock holds up. what is it now, facebook i think

is $190 a share. >> 190, yeah. stuart: where do you think it is going? >> i think it will be above 200 again, stuart. those are stocks we like to pick for ourselves and our investors because the hate gets so heavy, like it did on netflix, my friend. that is when stocks get a coiled spring. i think the same thing going on with facebook here. stuart: we'll check it. scott, thanks for joining us. see you again soon. >> see ya. stuart: story about google. big story. they are building a massive new campus in san jose, california. they're pouring a billion dollars into building new homes in the area. question, when they move into downtown san jose, will that create its own housing shortage take we have in san francisco or los angeles? we're going to ask the mayor of san jose. he is on this program next. boris johnson has reached a brexit deal with the european union. now that it's done, well they have drafted this deal, is it realistic to expect a uk, u.s.

trade deal? i'm going to ask president trump's former trade advisor that question. millenials and generation z, together they make up 37% of the electorate in 2020. i want to know, are young voters being lured in by socialism? what is going on? we're asking a millenial and a generation z later this hour. ♪. this piece is talking to me. yeah? so what do you see? i see an unbelievable opportunity. i see best-in-class platforms and education. i see award-winning service, and a trade desk full of experts, available to answer your toughest questions. and i see it with zero commissions on online trades. i like what you're seeing. it's beautiful, isn't it? yeah. td ameritrade now offers zero commissions on online trades.

merger with altria was a big blow for philip morris and altria going forward. look out one same tax charge from russia. they did pretty well. in fact they're looking for more growth in vaping, despite regulations we have, all thousands of cases of vaping illnesses, more than 23 deaths at this point. i think the future is, if you look at it, the future is for vaping. stuart: that's what they say? >> unfortunately. stuart: the stock is down 40 cents. 78, philip morris. google has a plan to build a huge new headquarters, it will be in san jose, california. they will spend a billion dollars to build 20,000 homes in that area, in the next 10 years. the mayor of san jose is sam lacoato is here now.

you're honor, let me throw this at you. all the wealthy google people will move into your city. they will buy the homes there already. they will create a housing shortage like you have in san francisco and los angeles. don't tell me they're going to build 20,000 new homes. you haven't got planning permission for 20,000 new homes. i'm coming at you pretty strong right from the get go, sir. >> stuart, good morning. you're right, it is a big campus, twice the size of the apple world headquarters down the street. this is big. no question about that. the reality is, the first google employees to move in will actually be coming from other parts of silicon valley. these are folks who already live here. and, i should note that you we already have a housing crisis. that's not news lots of folks are concerned what additional job growth will do with that crisis. i'm confident we have got the

time, working with google, we have the ability to be able to expand our housing stock, to be able to accommodate the growth. stuart: okay. >> this campus will not get fully built for another decade. they have a lot of work to do. stuart: you could have a short term housing crisis. you could. i mean i can see that. >> we already have it. google didn't create it. it was created by the fact here in silicon valley we've grown jobs six times the rate housing units are built. that is a problem we have to grapple with today. stuart: i used to live in san francisco. this was the in 1970s, late '70s. at that time, san jose, 50 miles down the road, it was relatively small town. i mean it simply had not taken off anywhere near like it is today. but let me just return to one thing here. google plans to build 20,000 new homes in san jose. you can't get planning permission to build new homes in

california. it is not easy. takes years. >> there is no question we need to accelerate our development of housing but we've got 6,000 unit now already under construction and in the pipeline. we're going to build very aggressively this year. i expect we'll have significant numbers. in a typical year, in the past we built about 3,000 units a year. i have laid out a plan to accelerate that to 5,000 units a year. really, look, we're a city of 1.1 million people. adding 20,000 jobs over a period of 10 years that is not even enough to accommodate our natural job growth and our natural population growth. so we'll be able to absorb this because we're a big city. but the larger issue for us is really grappling with this housing crisis that we all share, that we have created over the last couple decades. we have a lot of work to do. we have a huge labor shortage in construction. that is driving up housing costs. the trump tariffs on chinese

steel and canadian wood aren't helping. stuart: we wish you the best of luck there, your honor. it is just a very different city from the one i knew 30, 40 years ago. good luck to you sir. we appreciate you being with us. >> thank you, stuart. good to be with you. stuart: yes, sir. i want to bring this to your attention, airbnb, in the first quarter, their first quarter, their loss, more than doubled. they're not a public company yet, but we have new data on them. their loss doubled, lauren to how much? lauren: operating loss is $306 million. doubled versus this time last year. according to a report in the information. here is the issue. if you're an investor, looking at unicorns, some of them unprofitable going to market you would take a company with this size of a loss, whether a direct listing or not, would you take it public? they're looking to to public with 35 billion-dollar valuation in early 2020. they're spending a lot of money to grow their business. that could be a positive.

they listed the "downton abbey" castle. listing the barbie dream house. they're spending money to expand. revenue grew to $839 million in the quarter. stuart: they're losing money. they still want to go public next year? we'll see what happens. >> we've seen the uncorn ipo this year. stuart: we have. president trump as you know is heading to texas shortly. he will visit a brand new manufacturing brandt run by louis vuitton. he may speak to reporters when he leaves the white house. if he speaks, you will see it right here. next we talk to a netflix analyst who says netflix cannot be dethroned. netflix's international audience will keep it on top. we'll be right back. ♪

>> really. that does not mean that for instance, what disney is doing is not sound for disney. and disney has such appealing content, that i think they will do well. will they ever get to netflix's size? i can't imagine it. it seems incomprehensible that will happen. stuart: that is interesting. barry diller. he knows what he is talking about on streaming. he says look, nobody will derail netflix. they are still number one and stay number un. i think our next guest will agree with that. beth, welcome to the program. here is barry diller saying

nobody will dethrone netflix as number one streamer. you make your case, i think you agree with him? >> you know i do. i don't want to negate the critics. netflix has a huge debt load. tune of 3 1/2 billion a year. those things we know b the market is very vocal on. if you look at netflix, they have such a wide margin. they are leading every which way you look at this. they have 87% of the ott households in the united states. outside the united states they have 70% of english speaking countries. 55 to 65% of the none english speaking countries. this is phenomenal lead. if you look at subscribers, top 20 most streamed shows last year, netflix had 17, disney marvel had two, hulu at one. any way you look at this netflix in a lead by very wide margin. stuart: one more thing, as i

understand it, netflix is creating original content in the language of the markets that they're reaching. so they're doing foreign language original material. and they can target it. netflix has the ability to target individuals with what netflix thinks they want to see, i can see how that is really big plus for them internationally. >> that is where a lot of that content bill comes in. a lots, can create a huge moat. only contender, take all of those companies, all of those dreaming services. all the contenders in the area will be disney. to be honest, netflix faces if you take the lead they have, broadband penetration across all the geographies, net exin would have many more subscribers what it has now. the biggest problem netflix has is broadband penetration.

the majority of the world doesn't have broadband. they don't have fast enough speeds for ott streaming. that is bigger headwind for netflix which will be solved over time. stuart: do you have a price target for netflix? it is around 290, 300 at the moment? >> see i'm actually, you know, i do this, i do this for a living on my site. i actually think you should let the market beat up the company a little bit. i think market will do it whether it deserves it or not. i would say try to get in a little lower than where it is at now. hold for the long term. stuart: got it. beth thanks for joining us. we appreciate it. >> see you, stuart. stuart: pay attention to the big board. we gone up more. now we're up 109 point, that is .4%. 27,100 is where we are. a brexit deal, a draft deal, okay, between the uk and the european. what's in it for us? what's in it for america?

doctor office visits, but you have to meet a deductible for each and then you're still responsible for 20% of the cost. next, let's look at a medicare supplement plan. as you can see, they cover the same things as original medicare and they also cover your medicare deductibles and co-insurance. but they often have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. now, let's take a look at humana's medicare advantage plans. with a humana medicare plan, hospital stays, doctor office visits and medicare deductibles are covered. and, of course, most humana medicare advantage plans include prescription drug coverage. in fact, in 2018, humana medicare advantage prescription drug plan members saved an estimated $7400, on average, on their prescription costs. most humana medicare advantage plans help you stay active and keep fit by including a silver sneakers

lauren: there is no sunshine today. it is raining. stuart: positive, upbeat songs like this. wishful thinking. you're going to ruin my beatles song. let's move along. something positive, the market rally, not huge, but nice. up a third of 1%. 96 points higher for the dow industrials. general motors and auto workers union struck a tentative deal, to end more than month-long strike. grady trimble, he has been following this all along. grady, can you tell me anything what this deal has in it? >> stuart, right now the official details of that deal are still not public, we have gotten information about what we're expecting to see in it. that includes wage increase and signing bonus for workers as well as a plans for at least one plant that is expected to be idled to remain opened. pathway for temporary workers to

full time employment. we're told health insurance for those workers will remain unchanged. it is important to note that workers will ultimately the ones to decide whether this deal goes through. all nearly 50,000 of them will have to ratify this tentative agreement before it becomes an official contract. i also want to tell you the strike is still going on. there is tons of workers outside of general motors headquarters right now with their picket signs still holding them, still picketing. local leaders will need to decide whether keep the strike going until workers ratify the contract or end it as possibly as soon as today. stuart: stock price is almost where it was right before the strike began. it was at 36 and 37 as the strike got underway. grady, thanks for joining us. let's get to brexit. european officials and european

firmses have draft deal to get out of the european union. brexit has a draft deal. a couple hurdles to go over. curtis ellis, former trump campaign jobs advisor. welcome back to the show. let me speculate for a moment. let me speculate that there is indeed a brexit deal. the brits are out of the european union at some point. i don't know when, at some point they're out. is it realistic to say we'll have a good trade deal with america? >> it is realistic. i look at it as a signing bonus. president trump has been encouraging brexit. he has been encouraging other european countries to get out of the eu, right? he was with the italian prime minister, italian president the other day saying look, if you break bonds with the eu we'll give you a tariff discount. he has every reason. we have long cultural, historical ties with great britain to make this great big trade deal with great britain. stuart: any idea what it would look like?

>> we'll all drive bentleys instead of toyotas. stuart: what would it look like? what would be encompassed in the deal? >> obviously agriculture. there is a lot of that, technology, digital trade, all of the things we're strong in. tell you brits need better food. stuart: that's for sure. it would be a freer trade deal? >> correct. stuart: it would be more trade as opposed to restricted trade? there is more of it, basically? >> yeah. this is running on parallel tracks, trade deal with the e.u. trade deal with the european union. we're in a big fight with the european union over the airbus. we're ready to put tariffs in place on friday on some european parmesan cheese, something like that. stuart: okay. now the big sticking point on this draft agreement, it has to be accepted by the british parliament. >> right. stuart: we had nigel farage is coming on show, don't want it. >> that's right. stuart: capitulation to the europeans. >> yeah.

stuart: if it doesn't get through british parliament you're likely to have general election in britain which may or may not back getting out of the european union. that leaves everything in chaos. >> chaos. it does seem to be the european continent in is in chaos right now. stuart: i wonder dangling a good trade deal with america, would be inducement to the british parliament to get on with it to make the deal? >> that is very good point, stuart. i hope it is. maybe democratic unionists and others skeptical about this agreement say it is in our best interests. let's have a trade deal with the united states and forget about the european union for now. stuart: donald trump and boris johnson seem to get along pretty well. >> they do. that is another reason to expect a good trade deal. stuart: they're cut from the same mold. they all look-alike. , fascinating stuff. curtis, thanks for joining us. >> thank you. stuart: johnson & johnson offered to pay roughly, what

$4 billion to settle opioid lawsuit. what more do we know? >> investors want this behind them. the 4 billion-dollar offer would settle 2,000 lawsuits related to johnson & johnson, helping to fuel the opioid epidemic. you have to keep in mind, if you look at johnson & johnson's drug portfolio, they're less than one percent of all opioid drugs out there. so they want the settlement to be in proportion. i've seen reports that the expectation here would be five to $10 billion. this is coming in under that. investors clearly relieved. stuart: as soon as you get dollar number, any kind of litigation, the stock goes up. you know what you're facing. >> know what you're facing. stuart: johnson & johnson knows facing 4 billion-dollar bill, up she goes. 13on j&j as we speak -- 137. another number for you, try this. 37%. 37% of the electorate in 2020 will be made up of millenials and generation z people. what i want to know, are young

people being lured to the left by socialism? wasn't it always so? when i was a kid, you know, you went for the socialist left, because you were young. president trump, he heads to texas shortly. he is going to visit a brand new lou very vuitton manufacturing plant there a french companying opening a store, manufacturing plant in texas? we have the u.s. ambassador to france joining us next hour. ♪ [ orchestral music playing ] mom you've got to get yourself a new car. i wish i could save faster. you're making good choices. you'll get there. ♪

stuart: now we're up 78 points for the dow industrials. that is over one quarter of 1%. we've been in the plus column all day. we're still there. 27,079 is exactly where we are. now this, millenials, those are people aged 23 to 37, generation z, those people age 7 to 22, you put those two generations together, they make up 37% of the electorate in 2020. that's a vast chunk of the electorate. guess what, we're told they lean socialist. i want to know why. cabot phillips with us, campus reform editor-in-chief, emma michelle, young americans for liberty. both of them with me. i will ask the both the same question to start with. emma, you first, why doesn't your generation, these youngsters, what have they got about the rich? >> the big problem they grew up in the aftermath of the 2018 recession. they heard people like their parents and their loved ones blaming capitalism and blaming

wall street and ultrawealthy for the fact they're facing lean christmases, a lot of things not fun. they grew up engrained in their brains. they have reactionary stance. they want to change things. they see socialism as robin hood mentality. steal from the rich, give to the poor. what they don't realize the actually socialists in the situation are tax collectors who are robbing good, hard-working people with their money. stuart: cabot, what have you youngsters got against the rich? why about leaning towards socialism? >> i think a misunderstanding of wealth. people believe you only get rich by stealing other people. you can't do so adding value. you can't overlook at role of higher education. i've been over 100 campuses. i see first-hand, capitalism is dirty word, racism and fact itch. it's a dirty word to be capitalist. that plays a role. ironic thing in all of this,

young people, we love amazon, starbucks, love the iphones. those are things that never would have happened if we had a socialist society. we need to have people emulate wealth and success. provide something to society helping people. that is a good thing. you will get rich along the way. you're helping people. stuart: you have good explanations. i understand them both. isn't it true young people, all new up-and-coming generations lean to the left because they're idealistic. isn't that true? >> most people, young pima majority lean that way. stuart: yes. >> not all of them. some of them believe in capitalism. when i was 16 years old i started working as a barista at coffee shop. i was not owner. was making minimum wage. i got skills. i got work experience and i was able to climb and get really good things from that. even though i didn't own it. stuart: but you were never a socialist.

>> i was never a socialist. there are people who think it is workers versus owners situation. that is the core of marxism. what we need young people to understand, capitalism benefits everyone on the rung of the ladder. stuart: cabot, that was good, can you match that. >> i agree. stuart: were you ever a socialist. >> i would be kicked out of my own house. i was socialist coming halloween season. i wanted older brothers to give me extra candy. polling data, 48% of the millenials thing the american dream is dead. they cannot achieve wealth themselves. view themselves locked out as hiring of society. that is not true. that will become true if we start to embrace a lot of policies they want to put in place. the american dream will die if we embrace socialist policies in america. stuart: the american dream has to be explained better. the american dream is not make a billion dollars. that is not the dream. the dream, you come start here. by hard work, brains, talent

ability, you climb the food chain. you're able to climb the food chain, unfettered by government or society, class all rest of it. that is the american dream. >> we need better messaging. it is up to us. a lot of conservatives, people supportive of capitalism, they always focus on data and statistics. those are good things. we should focus on those. get better at story telling. telling impactful stories why it is helpful to people. what is does in the real world. we cede the emotional side, cede the emotional story telling side and they say this is the emotional benefit of -- stuart: impactful is not a word. if the vote were held today, i don't think you would argue with me that that 37% of the electorate, millenials and z people, they would vote left. >> they absolutely would. stuart: 50, 60% of them would vote for elizabeth warren or bernie sanders? >> yes. if they all turned up to the

vote. that is the big question mark. they're not good showing up to vote. we saw a huge amount in 2016 millenials showed up. we have to inspire these people to cabot's point in the american dream. in the fact if they embrace free markets and embrace capitalism as something that can help them and help other people, help people rise out of poverty, we're going to see a prosperous, happy america. if we lean towards socialism, the things that bernie sanders and elizabeth warren want, we'll not have that option. that is the real takeaway. >> i want to piggyback on that. we need realistic when capitalism sometimes goes too far. when you have crony capitalism what a lot of young people see. they associate crony capitalism of big businesses paying off politicians, getting legislation that benefits them directly. that is not free market, not free enterprise. that is cronyism. a lot of young people see, that they see that is all capitalism is. it is not. we need a good job separating that out, separating capitalism.

that is not what we're about. stuart: emma, have you never gone through a period of socialism? >> no. stuart: not even close. >> no, proud to say it. i consider myself a libertarian which i think people tend to go in these two extremes generation z. want to be totally freedom, everyone do what you want, i will not get in your way, make that money, or go complete socialist and want government to run every aspect of your life. i think there is an opportunity here for us to message to the socialists, say, hey, you want wide reaching reform, you want thinks to be fairer pour people, you're just looking at it the wrong way. that is what we need to speak to these people about. >> almost libertarian after that one. stuart: almost a convert. emma, thanks very much, gentlemen. and lady for joining us. >> thank you. stuart: "south park," "south park" jumping on the nba china controversy, mocking lebron james. we'll show you that full clip,

>> we have a right to free speech. >> we have freedom of speech but there are amountifications when you're not thinking about, only think about yourself. >> what is going on, kids? >> protesters are here, mr. mackey. >> kids, we don't want another incident here, okay. >> taking people's hundred. it harms physically, emotionally financially. stuart: that was "south park," mocking lebron james for his apparent support of china in the nba controversy. tell me more. >> that was wednesday's episode as cartman was very irate at some students who protested over the healthy options in the

politics how we handle trump but most american athletes don't live in china. there is atrocities going on around the world. like unless you're in the nba where i would expect you to speak out on it, if somebody who is vocal, the football player, exactly. exactly. we agree on that. stuart: they could be bullied. >> huh? stuart: they can be bullied. >> what's that? stuart: they are being bullied. >> i thought you said bullet with the accent. stuart: bullied. >> i love your accent, bro. stuart: i'm an american. >> you're an american. essentially, my stance is, not every athlete should have to speak out on every incident, especially globally, when you're doing business in china. when asked about everything going on mainland china or hong kong, be prepared to give an answer that's -- stuart: truthful. >> something. give us something. stuart: truthful. okay. i want to talk about you have a youtube sports channel, you're

channel doing this. >> yeah. stuart: one-on-one interviews with athletes? >> and others. stuart: people like me? >> yeah. stuart: but it is your channel. >> i'm launching a youtube channel. most importantly launching digital media company called chalk. as athletes we look at sports issues among fans, it can be annoying. there is a sweet spot for us to have humor edginess, athletes who are not brand conscious, real and authentic but not getting rid of the xs and os, what we do best. there is a lot of room for more digital media platforms. i'm not saying you have to pick one. i will still enjoy others. i think ours will be awesome. stuart: there is lot of room for really good sports interviews. the ones i see, are awful. how are you doing? playing a positive game, coach, we'll pull together. we'll win this thing for the team. >> on the pitch. stuart: it is awful. >> watch our interview with

so why isn't it all about you when it comes to your money? so. what's on your mind? we are a 97-year-old firm built for right now. edward jones. it's time for investing to feel individual. stuart: energy secretary rick perry was our guest thursday. during the interview, i'm sorry, that was wednesday. he was our guest on wednesday. during the interview, he revealed that america has become the largest oil and natural gas producer in the world, that america would soon be a net exporter of energy for the first time in decades. america is now king of the energy hill. that is news, that is very important news, and the rest of the media totally ignored it. instead they focused on one tiny part of the interview where i asked mr. perry if he would comply with house democrats' demand for documents related to

ukraine. according to the media, that was far more important than america's energy dollars. again, you have this contrast between the media's obsession with bringing down the president and the rest of the country, which is actually making things happen. make no mistake, it is an obsession. from day one of the trump presidency, removal of the president has been job one. whatever mr. trump does, it's wrong. if something good pops up, it's barely reported. yesterday we reported a huge gain in household income during the trump years. you didn't see that on the nightly news. no, you didn't. of course you didn't. the media doesn't want you to think that tax cuts and deregulation actually benefit middle america. same with energy. you think we would have cheap gas and energy dominance, you think we would have all of that if hillary were president? but thank you for watching our program. we have cheered on mr. trump's energy policy. we have cheered on his growth policy and we have closely

followed the trump stock market rally. we have done it all because that is important to you. stay there, please. the third hour of "varney & company" is about to begin. stuart: all right. i will get some reaction from the editorial in just a moment. first, we have received the numbers on how much oil we have got or have not got in storage. whoa. up 9.28 billion barrels, along the bottom of the screen. that's a big increase. susan: yeah. we were looking for just around 2.8 million barrels for the week, so this is much bigger than expected build and that follows the american petroleum institute which also saw a build of close to 10.5 million barrels. america is awash in oil and is stockpiling. stuart: maybe that's why the dow industrials just turned

negative, okay, we just got back slightly positive. we lost a hundred point rally and are now in minus territory, perhaps because we are not using that much oil. deirdre: i think the concern in the market as far as energy traders go is there has been this story of oversupply, so this is more than backing up that idea. then going to the larger point, yesterday we had that indicator of consumer spending which was lower for the first time in seven months, so there is concern about slowing, maybe consumers are going to pull back, maybe because that's two-thirds of the u.s. gdp, maybe that means the economy is going to slow, so it does make people very very anxious, when to your point, as you say, people aren't demanding energy because if you are producing stuff, you need energy. if you're not using energy, sometimes you can make the conclusion you're not producing very much. stuart: that pushes us down to almost exactly $53 a barrel. historically a low price. brian bremberg is here, chair at the business college here in new york city.

i was editorializing about the importance of america being energy independent and king of the energy hill. i think it's an extremely important development. >> well, it should be one of the stories of the year. think about this. just weeks ago, we had an attack on the core of the saudi arabian energy production facilities and it turned out to be basically a blip for the economy and blip for markets. we're looking at inventories of oil way above what anybody was estimating. that should not be happening after we saw that kind of attack. nobody's talking about how energy independence has changed the geopolitical game and changed the u.s. economy. u.s. consumers in any other decade would have been under serious pressure because of that attack. right now, they are staring at low gas prices, low oil prices, because we have significant production here. that is groundbreaking. stuart: is it the trump administration that did it? >> they certainly have been more favorable to these organizations. obviously there are all sorts of economic factors at play. but yes, they feel like for the

first time in a very long time, investment in energy is okay. we can double down in this industry, we don't have to worry about regulation that's going to cut us out at the knees and that's exactly what energy producers were looking at under the obama administration. stuart: you know, i'm just going to change subjects for a second, you know mark zuckerberg, facebook guy, is in d.c. today, holding a forum on free speech but the event is closed to the press. something not quite right about that. >> he's not there to talk about free speech. in my opinion, that's not what he's there to do. he's in d.c., he's going to be in d.c. a lot going forward because he knows his business is going to be regulated and he wants to have a front seat at the table, so he's pressing the flesh with all the lawmakers who he thinks matter. he is there for political purposes, not to talk about free speech because he knows he has no solution to that problem. he just wants to kick it to congress, regulate me, i'll be the dominant player in the space and nobody will ever dislodge me. stuart: he wants to kick it to

congress. >> oh, yeah. stuart: regulate me -- >> he has no idea, he never wanted to have to deal with this question in the first place. he knows he has no solution. but if he kicks it to congress, he's no long ter the guy on the hook, they are. he can run a business that dominates until kingdom come because once he's regulated, how will a competitor break in? stuart: fascinating. thank you, sir. appreciate it. good stuff. check the big board because we have got back to the green arrow, we're positive again. only just. 27,022 is the level. we are up 22 points. ibm, another quarter of declining revenue. it is a dow stock so that's hurting the dow, of course. five straight quarters of misses in terms of revenue, five straight, for ceo ginni rometty. some question about whether she should continue in the top job. look at apple. their mobile payment platform is called apple pay. it's being probed by the european union for antitrust concerns.

over there, they say apple devices may favor their own apple pay over other payment methods. no impact on the stock. it's down 20 cents at $234 a share. the stock of the day, that's netflix. earnings out yesterday, subscriber growth here in america, not quite what was wanted but internationally, that is a different story. look at that stock go. deirdre: that's exactly right. it is about international growth. i think it's fair to say that more or less, netflix is saturated or close to saturation point in the u.s., but the earnings beat, that's why you have the stock moving higher. but speaking of global growth, you know, even for the next quarter, netflix is saying you know what, we're still going to adjust less than we said we would. i think the bigger concern longer term is its cash burn. it is spending billions of dollars on its content. if you look at 12 month free cash flow, it is negative 2.87 billion. that's a lot of money that

netflix is spending to keep up with the competition that is coming online. netflix of course having the first mover advantage, if you like, but it is hearing the footfall pretty quickly from disney plus and from apple tv plus, which both launched in november. both are cheaper, by the way. and netflix tried to spin not having a franchise as disney does in a good way, they said well, you know, we're freer, we can keep creating content that's a little more compelling, and the flipside is let's face it, disney's franchises make disney an awful lot of money and they have an awful lot of content they don't have to pay for. stuart: got that right. susan: we have seen the stock fall a little. some are saying this is a short squeeze given it was down some 20% heading into these earnings and given that they are not losing subscribers, that's why we're looking at the small bounce today. stuart: netflix up at $296. coming up in this hour, the spiritual adviser to president

stuart: one year ago today, i just realized, one year ago on this very day, "varney & company" actually went on the road. we hardly ever do that. but this time, we went to the white house. yeah, one year ago today. it was a very big day for me, for the show, for the whole team. we interviewed president trump about cutting red tape. he did a lot of that in the year that followed. and we talked to nine cabinet members all in one day, one session, down there in d.c. all about cutting red tape. very successful operation. the first and i think the only time we have ever taken the show out of this set, out of new york city. we should do it again. next case, yes, it is harvest season. this is in the middle of a trade war, not great weather, but america's farmers, we hear, are turning to technology to get the crops moving. jeff flock joins us in lucerne,

indiana. what have you got for us? reporter: they are the most, i don't know, resourceful people you can think of, the american farmer. harvest out here, perhaps you see up close and personal, jeff kaiser's farm, artificial intelligence. this, as stuart has pointed out, is a tough year, low prices, bad yields, all the more important to be able to manage your field. >> yeah. i tell you, when it comes to a combination of threats, we've had it this year. triple threat with bad weather, but you know, i think the thing that overcomes some of these challenges, being able to know how to respond. that's what technology's helped us do. reporter: look at this, stuart. this is on a tablet, an ipad, actually, this is ibm's watson decision platform for farmers, new this year. all those colors you see there, that's what they have harvested already, what the yield was. beyond what the yield is, it's why you got what you got out of

the field. >> that's really been one of the missing links, trying to tell what the data is really telling us, and i think the decision platform is artificial intelligence, analytics, is able to analyze things much faster. reporter: how much fertilizer you need to put down, what kind of moisture level, what kind of seed did you use, all of that together. >> it's really even the reaction of the weather and everything, too. if we need more fertilizer, now we know before we can actually take action. reporter: so this helps the farmer, especially in a year like this, where, you know, he's really up against it. you may break even, right? >> oh, yeah. i hope so. reporter: jeff kaiser, i should point out, also one of the farmers that helped ibm develop this platform. i love coming out for harvest and i don't know, what do you think of the future?

>> well, i think that there's a lot of opportunity here. we've only just scratched the surface of what technology can do. reporter: stuart, wish you were here. i know you love the farm. stuart: i do. i'm in new york right now. a long way from indiana. jeff, thank you very much indeed. president trump, he heads to dallas later today for another keep america great rally. the director of communications for trump 2020 is with us. tim, we've heard democrats, even some republicans, like senator john cornyn of texas, they are saying look, texas is in play in 2020. what do you make of that? >> we don't think it is in play. we think texas is one of the states that president trump won in 2016 and will again win in 2020. we in fact invite democrats to think that they can compete in texas because every penny they spend in texas is money that they can't spend in a state they will have to defend like

minnesota. we have been hearing about texas turning blue for decades now and it never really quite happens. i mean, i would ask senator o'rourke and governor wendy davis how that worked out for them if you look at recent -- stuart: let me bring this up, because it's a factor here, and that is the hispanic vote, which is very large in texas, and we are told that some members of the hispanic community, not that wild about president trump. that is a factor in the possible flip of texas, isn't it? >> in fact, president trump is doing better among hispanic voters than democrats want to give him credit for, and we find here in the campaign, we find that when you talk to latino or hispanic voters, democrats think that you can just win the argument with them by saying trump and immigration and that does it, and that seals the deal. that's not the case. very many latino voters and hispanic voters have members of their own family or they themselves who came to this country legally and so -- and you ask them hey, you followed

the rules, your family followed the rules to become legal american citizens, do you think other people should follow the rules, too, and they say yeah, absolutely right. other people should follow the rules, too. so the president's stance on immigration actually resonates with a large number of latinos and in fact, our data shows that latinos very much support the president's position on china, because they view that quite correctly as the president's standing up and defending their jobs. latinos are benefiting from the trump economy just as much as anybody else, in fact, more so. the latino unemployment rate is at an all-time low right now. we think that it is good news for the latino community and president trump will win texas. stuart: he will get a big reception today. that's a fact. thanks for joining us. see you again soon. thank you. a couple of stocks to check. uber and lyft. the city council in los angeles trying to get the companies to pay their drivers a minimum wage of $30 an hour. $15 of that would be base pay

much do taxpayers, how much do we have to pay for that? deirdre: $5 million is what the u.s. government gave to spacex, essentially what they're saying is when spacex is working with nasa, nasa doesn't want to send any astronaut into space worried about his or her personal safety and whether or not the crew is high, i'm just going to speak bluntly, so they gave this money to support this kind of culture of a drug-free workplace. stuart: because he had been on the show smoking weed. deirdre: yeah. stuart: because of that, we pay $5 million? deirdre: exactly right. what's worse, want me to rub salt in the wound, boeing is also a contractor working with nasa. boeing did not get any extra money. now, if you go a little bit deeper, a lot of people are saying if we were boeing, we would be screaming. however, it does seem that boeing has charged the government higher than $5 million for other costs. this is an equalizer. stuart: we shell out $5 million for elon musk because he smokes weed on the rogan show. what a bargain that is. there's more on tesla.

>> oh, you're absolutely right, and the markets are being driven this time by earnings. it's not just the fed, it's not just china trade truce or the phase one deal. it's actually being driven by earnings. look at the big banks, for example. you rightfully pointed out morgan stanley, a big beat this morning. all of the banks across the board look pretty solid. stuart: you think we will hit new highs pretty soon? >> well, i think we will hit new highs before the end of the year, for sure. i think there are only two things that could derail that, the china trade deal which we have phase one already completed. markets like that. there was a big response to it on friday when it was announced and i think that's a positive, and the only other thing that i could see derailing markets reaching new highs by the end of the year are interest rates climbing, i don't think we will see 3% by the end of the year, but the markets seem to also be in lockstep somewhat with interest rate movements, as rates go up, the markets decline so i think you will see a two

handle by the end of the year on the ten-year and the markets can digest that just fine. stuart: we have not mentioned brexit but there is a draft brexit deal, the brits get out of the european union, theoretically. there will be a vote in parliament. i know it's touch-and-go at this point but why should this draft brexit deal have a positive impact on our market? >> well, the draft brexit deal would have a positive impact on our markets because uncertainty is cleared up. in terms of global growth around the world, we have seen signs of slowing down that both the federal reserve pointed to, the imf pointed to that, so when you have a brexit draft deal, it clears up some of the geopolitical risk and turmoil overseas and now you couple that with the china deal that i think is going to happen before the end of the year, since we have phase one complete. the markets like certainty. stuart: they haven't completed phase one yet. they have talked about it. >> not yet. stuart: they are going to keep

talking about it. they haven't gotten pen to paper and signed it. they haven't done that yet. that could be a negative, if things go wrong even with phase one, you've got a problem right there. >> well, fair enough, but look, i think there are three key issues that are being addressed. it's in china's best interests to do a deal, especially with president trump. can you imagine what they would have to work with if democratic presidential nominee was elizabeth warren? if you think president trump is tough on china, elizabeth warren might not even do a deal with china or talk to them until they, for example, stop polluting. that would never happen. so three key issues have been addressed. they are going to buy more ag, i know they pulled back but they did have record pork sales, pork imports about two weeks ago. currency is being addressed, the currency manipulation. there will be more trans paretr and stability. maybe now bank of america, maybe jpmorgan can go over there and

stu, they can keep a majority stake, majority stake is huge to also address the i.p. theft. i think it's going to be signed. stuart: okay. i hope so. heather, thanks for joining us. i don't think you have ever told our viewers to sell, sell, sell. i await that day. >> no. not yet. stuart: got it. heather, thanks for joining us. appreciate it. next one. myron ebell, the man on the screen, he's with us right now. he's from the competitive enterprise institute. we ran a brief clip from the ad that you have been running about the green new deal. you clearly don't like the green new deal and in that ad, we haven't run it at this point, you told households how much extra they have got to pay if the green new deal is a reality. give me that number. how much is it going to cost households in america? >> well, it's so colossal that no one would believe it so we have to sort of talk in

increments here that your gas prices, gasoline prices will double, triple, quadruple. electric rates will start going up. every product in life, the cost of it will start going up as a result of the green new deal which is why the presidential candidates have stopped talking about the green new deal, that they don't really, you know, it was very fashionable and there was a real buzz at the beginning of the year, but now they really don't want to talk about it, as people start to look at the details and see how much prices will go up. stuart: we just put on the screen the number $70,000 per household in america. i think that was in the first year after passage of the full green new deal. so $70,000 is the number. right? >> well, yes, but again, that was a study that cei did with another group, and that was an estimate for four different states across the country. the fact is that that's such a big number that people will write it off and say oh, nobody

would ever do that. so we tried to downplay the actual cost of the green new deal so that people can understand that this is a really serious proposal to completely transform american life. stuart: the heart of all these climate ideas is getting rid of fossil fuels. if we get rid of fossil fuels, i don't care what the time frame is, but if you get rid of them, it seems to me that gas -- i mean, the cost of energy, if it comes from the sun or the wind, is going to go sky-high, anyway you slice it, right? >> yes, you're right. look, the world gets 80% of its energy from coal, oil and natural gas, the three so-called fossil fuels. the world 30 years ago got 80% of its energy from those three fuels but we are using a lot more now. so yes, we are getting more windmills and solar panels but they're just adding to the increased supply of energy that the world is using. they're not actually cutting

into the amount of fossil fuels that we're using. so the world has a huge appetite for more energy. there's a lot of energy poverty in the world. and so the idea that we're just going to get rid of fossil fuels is really a way to condemn the world's poverty, particularly people in poor countries. stuart: what a quote. condemn the world to poverty, especially the ones in poor country. i think you made your point. come again soon, okay? thank you. >> thank you. stuart: i want to check one particular stock. hexo, a canadian legal pot producer. recently, they were down really big because of the resurgence of the black market in canada but it got an answer for it. the can sstock is up 10%. what's the answer? deirdre: they are cutting prices. for the first time, they will be offering per gram a price under $5 per gram. if you look at the legal cost, it's about $10.23 per gram.

if you look at the gray market, because as we know, cannabis has been legal in canada for about a year, the gray market is 5.59 per gram so they are undercutting even the illicit market, the gray market, if you want to call it that. just as a reminder, in canada, it's been legal a year but you do have to get a license, as a grower and distributor, but there's a lot of people who say great, i will grow stuff at home and sell it. that's what is considered illift. more than half of canadians apparently are still using the illicit market because it's cheaper. this company is saying okay, we are going to offer something that's legal, cheap, they are doing it three ways, they say they have less classic packaging, that's why they say they can cut prices, higher production, then in quebec, they will be selling in quebec, lower hydroelectric costs so they say whatever they need to process, they can process cheaply. by the way, all the provinces in canada have a fair amount of autonomy with how they handle this business. stuart: cut the price.

beat the black market. there you go. pretty soon on this program today, we will be talking to pastor paula white, the spiritual adviser to president trump. she says the evangelical base is more energized than ever before. i'm going to ask her, can you be a socialist and a christian at the same time. i'm going to ask. t p headed to texas to mark the opening of a louis vuitton plant there but what's a french company that makes luxury items doing in cowboy country? i will ask the u.s. ambassador to france that question after this. ♪ imagine traveling hassle-free with your golf clubs. now you can, with shipsticks.com! no more lugging your clubs through the airport or risk having your clubs lost or damaged by the airlines. sending your own clubs ahead with shipsticks.com makes it fast & easy to get to your golf destination.

stuart: president trump is heading to a small town in texas today, that's before his big rally in dallas tonight. all right, susan, what is he doing in keene, texas? susan: louis vuitton.

yes, he's cutting the rib bon o a new luxury bag making facility. 100,000 square feet. this is a tiny town of 6,000 that will be making high end handbags for one of the richest men in the world. he's worth $100 billion, number four globally. he will be there. stuart: find that interesting. louis vuitton, french luxury, going to texas. we need some serious commentary here. let's bring in jamie mccourt, the u.s. ambassador to france. madam ambassador, welcome to the program. great to have you with us. can you explain to me -- >> thank you. it's great to be here. stuart: why is louis vuitton, luxury brand company, french company, why are they going to texas? >> well, let me just say what a great day this is for america

and for president trump. this is part of his pledge to american workers to create manufacturing jobs here, and let's be honest, there's a lot of americans who have their eyes on these luxury bags and leather goods that are produced by louis vuitton. stuart: it does seem to be a little bit of a strange partnership, doesn't it? cowboy country and louis vuitton? does that strike you as a little odd? >> it does not, actually. cowboy country is known for its leather, whether it's boots or saddles, and so it seems like a great pairing to me. stuart: so tell me what the french think of president trump. we hear that he's very unpopular in europe. what about france? >> oh, i would have to say that there's such a good relationship between the two presidents, france and america, and of course, the bilateral relation

is dating to so far back, it was our first bilateral relationship, as you know. i am an angel investor in my normal life. when america was just the startup, the french were our first investors. so it's only logical that we continue to maintain the relationship both politically, security-wise and certainly economically. there is so much trade between the countries every year. stuart: i was in britain just a few months ago and i asked a lot of people, what do you think about president trump, and you know, interesting response that i got. quite frequently, it was we could use a guy like trump over here, he gets things done. is there any similar sentiment amongst people in france? >> i think you hear a similar tone in france as well. they are very impressed by someone who is out to protect his own people and take care of his own people, whether it's

from a security perspective, as i mentioned, or a prosperity perspective which we know are his two goals, and you know, he campaigned on getting certain things done and he's checking them off the list. he's doing what he said he would do. stuart: madam ambassador, jamie mccourt, thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. thank you very much. >> thank you. stuart: forgive my appalling pronunciation of louis vuitton. by the way, that of course is a luxury brand, louis vuitton, et cetera. now we have got a list of the most valuable brands in the whole world. deirdre's got the list. deirdre: apple number one. straight to the top. it is for the seventh straight year. google number two. amazon number three. you will notice all of these top five are american. you will also notice that four out of the five are tech. the only consumer, true consumer play there is coca-cola. i took a look because who did this, some american company that

just wants to brag about it. it's actually an international company, omnicom which owns intrabrand, they have 24 offices so this is a global list. as i mentioned, amazon, top three. amazon, apple, google, seventh straight year at the top. stuart: there is samsung, toyota, mercedes, six, seven and eight. mcdonald's number nine. disney, number ten. deirdre: the only one that fell, by the way, was facebook. slipped right out of the top ten. they've had a difficult year sort of marred by these privacy scandals, data management scandals and a multi-million dollar fine from u.s. regulators. stuart: apple still number one unscathed. thank you. next, we will be joined by the spiritual adviser to the trump family. that would be pastor paula white. she says the evangelicals will carry the president to victory in texas in 2020. she's with us on the set. ♪

stuart: the president's heading to dallas today. he will hold another of those

keep america great rallies this evening. now, he's headed into -- deep into evangelical christian country. 40% of the state's population, evangelical, and 81% of that group voted for mr. trump in 2016. pastor paula white, president trump's evangelical adviser, is with us. she is the author of the new book called "something greater, finding triumph over trials." pastor is with us this morning. welcome back. >> it's so great to be with you, stu, and everyone. stuart: look, 40% of the state's population is evangelical. 80% of that group voted for trump in 2016. he wins in 2020. any doubts? >> we are so strong. i mean, people are scratching their head. they can't understand, they're like we're unwavering. this entire time, our numbers have stayed super strong and we're growing. stuart: a lot of people, evangelicals included, don't like some of the things that the president says. and the way he expresses himself. they are put off by it.

not by his policies. but by the man, the message that he's putting out there. >> i think some people don't understand, they look at the persona or that they don't know the man and this book is laden with stories about the man. it has so many things about just his everyday, i have known him for 18 years, he was watching me on christian television, called me out of the blue and became very close to him, the family. i mean, people in his office, everyone, so this is an ongoing long relationship and i love to tell those stories. so people get to know the person. when you're with him privately, i'm in the listening sessions all the time and i see, i was on the campaign with him and people, they don't -- if they get sound bites of it, that's a different thing. stuart: can you define -- how do you define evangelical? >> that's a great question. first off, they put this blanket over us as evangelical and so really, that's christian, but it's more of your mainline denominations like southern baptist, assembly of god, church

of god, it's not your traditional as much as presbyterian -- stuart: they are all under the evangelical umbrella? >> it's a theology. stuart: but the hispanic catholics are not in the evangelical umbrella. >> but hispanic christians are. it gets very confusing. i laid this out on the plane one time to jared for hours. his head's just spinning. jared's like paula, this is what you do. it really is. we are just kind of labeled all evangelical but there's, you know, after the reform, there's, what, 9,000 different denomination type. stuart: okay. hoor here's a question which comes to me frequently. can you be a socialist and a christian at the same time? that's a pejorative question, it implies you can't be, but i don't mean to imply that. i know some christian socialists and they are solid, sincere people. can you be both? >> it is not in the word of god as the will of god to be a

socialist nation and to be, in fact, if you look at moses in the old testament, he's the greatest freedom fighter. if you look at jesus in the new testament, he's an absolute liberator and freedom fighter so it is not biblically -- now if you are born into that, into a nation that is socialist or communist, to be born in the world's greatest democracy and try to take it backwards into socialism, watch what -- stuart: capitalism is not in the bible. >> there is some. in the new testament there is a lot about free market. when you look at things like from the standpoint, our president understands this, religious liberty has a lot to do with political liberty and political freedom. you take religious liberties away from someone, you are also taking political freedom. what were we founded on? the main reason our forefathers came over was to get away from secular religion, state religion, for the government not to tell them how to worship.
