badly. i think they'd love to see another president. i think -- would they like -- they would like to see another president, more than crooked hillary would. okay? can you imagine if they ever took over negotiations of this deal, which is going to be one of the greatest deals ever made. those be. because we started down here and they were up here. has to be. lauren: we're close to a deal. chinese president xi-jinping was speaking at a trade event in shanghai today and he promised to expand china's economy, lower tariffs and focus more on imports, basically l signaling that china is open to international trade. he backed hong kong chief executive carrie lam's efforts to end months of demonstration that's have rocked hong kong. this comes amid concerns that beijing was about to replace carrie lam. ashley: a hearing on data security risks from china will

not include representatives from apple or tiktok. tiktok is a popular chinese social media app. says it wasn't given enough time to make a witness available. apple didn't return a request for comment from fox business about why it won't be at the hearing. the trump administration is investigating tiktok you amid concerns that the app could be used by foreign governments to influence u.s. elections. lauren: another high level departure at mcdonald's, the company's head of human resources resigned a day after mcdonald's fired the ceo for violating company policy by having a consent sensual relationship with -- consistent sense l walconsensualrelationsh. they say this exit was not related to the dismissal of easterbrook. he will get at least $675,000 in severance pay but will not be allowed to work at any fast food competitor for two years' time. he was paid nearly $16 million in total compensation last year.

report since going public in september. shares of the company down 14% since its you debut. analysts will be watching as to whether the company's strategy of offering free trials will be enough to push reluctant buyers to actually purchase the product and also bring the company into profitability. lauren: those free trials can be sticky, though. ashley: they can. lauren: sometimes you're on the hook for more than you wished for. it's november 5th, which means it's election day throughout the country. voters take to the polls. president trump was in kentucky last night, urging voters to vote for matt bevin. other key elections are taking place, including a tight raise in mississippi. in virginia, republicans are hoping to win control of both houses of the state ledge slay . many believe this serves as a brome teabrahm onbarometer on tf president trump being reelected.

be our first witness that we're going to ask to come and give a deposition. >> reporter: meanwhile, four white house officials defied subpoenas by not showing up yesterday for depositions leading to what schiff says is evidence of obstruction. >> both of them defied congressional subpoenas and refused to appear for scheduled depositions. as has been the case with other witness whose have done the same thing, this will be further evidence of an effort by the add a medicine strayings to obstruct the -- administration to obstruct the lawful and constitutional duties of congress. >> reporter: this has the first transcripts have been released of the closed door depositions. it was the u.s. ambassador to ukraine. today, they'll release two more, kurt volcke vo kerr and gordon sondland. lauren: the cameras are ready.

nasdaq, 27%. not bad. >> no, it's fabulous, ashley. you've got to keep in mind where we were last year, 2018. but still, keeping things in perspective. you look at the s&p over the past 22 months, the average return's more like 9%. bonds were higher. ashley: whichs i which is stre because interest rates are so low. europe and japan you pay for the privilege of lending money to the government. >> you pay insurance in order to keep your savings safe. ashley: by actually not getting a return and giving something back. >> well, you know, those are older populations. they don't have a he desire to consume tomorrow. so they're trying to keep those savings safe for them. ashley: okay. i'm with you. listen, for investors, there's a lot of cash on the sidelines. is it too late to benefit from this bull run? in other words, where do we go from here. >> no, no, i don't think so.

we expect earnings will continue to increase. you have to make the distinction between the economy and the stock market. a lot of focus on the economy. you take a look at corporate earnings and revenues, we could see the dow, the s&p 500 easily at 3300. ashley: by when in. >>?>> by a year from now and potentially 3500 p you by a year from you now, based on a relatively modest increase in earnings, 6% or so and maintaining valuation levels or perhaps moving them up. 17 times forward earnings seems to some people on the high side but that's not particularly relative to what bonds are going to return. ashley: we say this all the tile. we're the only game in town. the rest of the world is slowing down, certainly europe, much of asia and the money's coming here because the economic data generally has been still solid. >> right. but when we look at global data, particularly coming out of europe, germany's been in a

recession essentially for two quarters now. but german equities have done very well recently, better than u.s. ebbing which you is the. you have to factor out solve on the headline news. you want to buy stocks in markets like that when the economy is doing poorly because that's when you get the bounce. ashley: we're beholden to the headlines from the latest u.s.-china trade tussle. feels like the markets believe this will get done eventually. what's your feelings on that? where do we go if we get phase one in place and looks like we could get a lot of what we want from the chinese. >> if we get phase one and we look like we're going to get from the chinese, the market's likely to rally very strongly. from r where we are right now, we're very cautious about that. we think there may be too much hope built into the expectations for a resolution there. major real issues there between what we're looking for and what china's loo looking for. ashley: you threw a little

coldwater on it but overall positive. thank you for being here this morning. lauren: all right. just waiting for my prompter to pop up. google employees once again making their voice heard to company top brass. this time, publishing a letter asking the cfo to release a can-wide climate plan and to drop any contracts that deal with fossil fuels. google currently works with companies such as chevron, total and saudi arabia's aramco, providing cloud computing services. goo l gegoogle yet to comment os letter. take a look at futures right now, you can throw coldwater on it but we have record highs. nasdaq is tacking on more than 30 this morning. coming up, how one customer had a service rep call her as she was browsing the company's website. is that creepy or helpful? ashley: creepy. lauren: very big brother. we'll debate -- i don't think there's any debate. that's creepy. and a new comedy special on

ashley: all right. lauren: an internet shopper received a creepy phone call, very creepy. it happened on halloween which makes it more creepy. ashley: brett larson from fox news headlines 24/7, joins us with details. >> the fact that it happened on halloween kind of -- was this a joke? imagine if you will you're surfing the internets, you're on -- you're doing a little shopping and the site you're shopping on calls you. you know, and we all hear the

anecdotal like i was talking about it in front of my smartphone and i saw an ad for it. this goes a step further. this is i was on the website shopping and they called me. a woman posted a tweet that said i was looking on wayfair and a customer service rep from wayfair called me. wayfair says it was totally a coincidence, they were not watching her in real-time. look on the website. lauren: did they say there was a connection between what she was browsing for and what the service rep was asking about. >> no, they were two separate things were going on at the same time. so like she was maybe shopping for a rug and they were calling about a chair. so that's -- we're going to gloss over that one as just mere coincidence but creepy nonetheless. soon enough, alexa will be saying are you sure you want to close that web browser because you still have things in your cart. you know that's going to happen.

library books, we heard the other day chicago did away with late fees and returns went up over 200% of people bringing library books back. in this instance -- this is kind of like check yourself. a many woman was denied a promotion because when they did a background check on her, turns out she had a warrant out for her arrest for an overdue library book, 90 days in jail with $500 fine was awaiting her. she had no idea that was on her record. lauren: she said she was driving at the time and when she was notified that the books were late and she could go to jail for this, she started to laugh, which is what i would do. ashley: jail overcrowding is one of the big problems in this country, now we know why. >> people aren't rushing their library books many it's horrifying because these are -- i feel like this is one of those things like you go to renew your driver's license and they say you have a warrant out for your arrest for a parking ticket from eight years ago. because you know that it

happens. it just happened to this woman with her library book. lauren: finally a story on he netflix and politics. >> they want to let you avoid politics. you know when you get the thing, skip intro, get to my show. it's my favorite button. seth myers is adding this to his latest comedy special, you can skip the trump jokes. any time there's jokes about the president, you can skip -- ashley: it's a gibbin give gim. it comes out today. >> lobby bay yo baby, because e went into labor and she had the bababy in the lob. lauren: somlobby.lauren: you n 24/7 on sirius xm channel 115.

ashley: take a look at your monday this morning. let's see what markets are doing, dow up 87, nasdaq and s&p up a quarter to a third of a percent. still ahead, personality versus pocketbook, which one wins over as one top democrat says trump's re-election is in jeopardy because of his personality. that's his opinion. will a booming economy, though, help voters decide. if you're already tired of the election cycle and just want peace and quiet, a salon is offering a new way to tune it all out. keep it here on "fbn: a.m.," we're invested in you. ♪ ke a moment to say thank you to our military service members at home and abroad for all their hard work and sacrifice. we all sleep easier knowing you're out there keeping us safe.

and on a personal note... sfx: jet engines ... i just needed to get that off my chest. thank you. geico: proudly supporting the military for over 75 years.

the difference between 2016 and now is they've had three years of donald trump and there's trump fatigues because he has broken so many promises, relating to the fundamental

pocketbook issues. lauren: that was tom perez saying he expects trump fatigue to he set in by the time americans go to the polls this time next year. as stocks and the rest of the u.s. economy boom will voters vote with their pocketbook or vote with something else. brad, thank you for joining us. will trump fatigue push voters to not give president trump credit for the economy. >> i think tom perez is half right. voters are fatigued by president trump, not just about him, about the constant obsession with impeachment, about russia, about ukraine, all of these things, voters have been bombarded with. so i think what they are fatigued with is the obsession over president trump, from both his critics and from his administration alike, in terms of this everyday drama and less attention being paid to issues real people care about.

california is burning, the national debt just hit $23 trillion, and here we are obsessing every day over the whistleblower this and the whistleblower that. i just don't think it changes anything for that many voters and i think they're getting sick of hearing about it. lauren: those are certainly distractionses from pocketbook issues that do matter. something else that voters are talking about increasingly and this is something that was brought up, going through the swing state of pennsylvania yesterday, and voters spoke about the personality of the president. listen. >> personality-wise, i think there's things he could do better on. but it doesn't bother me. i believe that his intentions are for the country, to do good for the country. >> and the best thing about it is what? the best part about the three years so far of the trump presidency is what? >> the economy. the economy. lauren: brad, you hear that over and over again. we love how the economy is doing. we love how our personal economy is doing. we don't like the president's person l at.

at what point do voters say we're going to switch and he vote for someones else. >> i don't think there is a point when the alternative is someone like elizabeth warren or hillary clinton who aren't exactly considered likable themselves. the thing about the personality criticism of the president is it's true, everybody in 2016 was grossed out by some of the things he said and some of the things he tweeted and we still sometimes are. but it doesn't really change anything. everyone who voted for him in 2016 knew what his personality was and it's the same personality today. so i don't think there's going to be a point, especially if the economy stays strong and the alternative is someone unlikable like elizabeth warren, i don't think there's a point where voters decide that person l at y matters more than the economy. lauren: fast forward one year from today, perhaps we have a trade deal with china, let's say the stock market is completely in bigger record territory, higher record territory, is trump's re-election a guarantee? >> it depends on who the

democrats put up. the new york times upshot had data yesterday showing that trump has good chances at beating in the key electoral swing states, either elizabeth warren or bernie sanders. but against joe biden, he's within the margin of error the in every state. so it's a much closer call. so i think those things hold, he'll beat a be president elizabeth warren. he might not beat joe biden. that remains to be seen. lauren: i go back to the polls in 2016 where they didn't show president trump winning. >> that's true. lauren: and look what happened. we'll see. brad, thanks for the time. >> thank you. ashley: well, sticking with the theme, two presidential candidates are criticizing how much amazon is spending on political candidates and issues. senators bernie sanders and elizabeth warren are saying that the t compan company is trying o influence politicians in the hometown of seattle which is set to elect seven city council members today. amazon has confirmed to fox business that it spent over $1 million on elections, claiming that the consisten thes

help with city-wide problems such as homelessness. lauren: alexandria ocasio-cortez says she's sorry for blocking a critic on her twitter account. she was sued for blocking dav hiken. in the settlement she apologized and promised to unblock him. president trump and other lawmakers have faced similar lawsuits for blocking people on twitter. i do mute a lot of people, more than block. ashley: just silence rather than block. lauren: i don't need to hear a that right now. ashley: i understand. looking at futures this morning, all green arrows, mostly green in asia and europe and same thing in the us, the dow is up 84 points in the he premarket. all right, coming up, just as europeans are rejecting far left tax policies, 2020 progressives are pushing they'll here. what would that mean for you and your taxes? not good news. say say sending precious french cargo to space. how your next bottle of wine may

and compare the take-home pay of workers making $40,000 in europe with the same income in the u.s. and it shows europeans taking home, look at this, nearly $6,000 less. we bring in kristin tate of young americans for lib r earth. thank you for -- liberty. thank you for joining us, kristin. >> thanks for having me, lauren. lauren: the biggest question is, if we have examples of european style taxes and european style policy not working, why are we moving down the same path here? >> it's a great question. the democratic proposals like free college, medicare for all, and the massive climate change programs would fundamentallyal he tear the u.s. economy and punish working people in the form of higher taxes and the claims you can pay for big government programs by only raising taxes on corporations and billionaires, that is an overt lie. you have elizabeth warren claiming that she can pay for many of her promises by only raising taxes on corporations and billionaires and throw

wealth tax, and her own advisors admitted a wealth tax would raise $2.75 trillion in the first decade, that's just 8% of the cost of medicare for all. open keep in mind that just paying for the already projected government spending will result in tax hikes for americans, that's before you put into the mix any of these new entitlement programs. dc politicians on both sides of the aisle are completely addicted the to government spending. we do not have a revenue problem in this country. we have a spending problem and the democrats' proposals will make this more exorbitant spending. lauren: do you think voters will -- >> part of the problem is we live in a country where nearly half of americans don't pay federal income taxes. the people who aren't paying taxes don't care if taxes go up to pay for big government programs. back in the day, the democrats used to stand for sensible policies for businesses and tax

cuts but that more moderate democratic party of jfk and bill clinton is effectively dead. even joe biden, who is supposed to be the centrist in the race, he's getting extremely radical. he's proposed $5 trillion climate plan and the healthcare plan is basically obamacare on steroids. you have to think that most working class people who are paying taxes hear these proposals and they're terrified of them. lauren: and speaking of working class, let's talk about the upper middle class, families making above 25 # of thousand $. the federal appeals court in new orleans will weigh the constitutionality of obamacare now that the individual mandate has been repealed. as they do that, the center on budget and policy priorities finds for these households making that amount of money, they'll see cuts of $45 billion a year going back into their pocketbooks. so let's talk about the potential repeal of obamacare and the savings that some families might see.

>> right. well, it's not surprising that the elimination of obamacare would reduce taxes on certain families, particularly high income families, because obamacare is essentially just a wealth transfer. most people realize that obamacare is a disaster from the time it was rolled out. premiums doubled during the first few years it was in effect. insurers left many markets. the question isn't who would receive tax cuts if we eliminate obamacare, it's what would replace obamacare. democrats want to institute medicare for all which would cause tax hikes across the board. medicare is subject to overspending, fraud and bureaucracy. adding another 250 million people to that system would be a recipe for disaster, but republicans really have not done a good job at articulating what their alternative would be and of course they missed their opportunity to repeal and replace. lauren: all right kristin tate, well said. thank you very much. >> thanks, lauren.

ashley: guess what? get ready to break out your parka. winter-like weather headed our way. lauren: i took a new one out this morning and ripped the tag off. it didn't feel so good. senior meteorologist janice dean is here with details. how cold is it going to get? janice: this week we'll get a little taste of l cold air and next week we get the arctic air plunge for folks across the tennessee and mississippi river valley and the northeast. current temperatures, we can deal with the 50s here, got 40s across the ohio river valley, 20s over the northern plains and the upper mid west. we're going to get a shot of cold air and snow with that over the great lakes and interior northeast. this will make news, this next weather maker across portions of the interior northeast for friday, so there it is right there. how much snow will we get? several inches looks like especially for places downwind of the great lakes, up towards the northern new england area.

along the coast we won't get the snow but we will see potential for heavy rain and flash flooding over parts of the south as we get into next week. tuesday into wednesday of next week, that's where we're going to feel the arctic plunge. our first cold air comes thursday, friday, in towards portions of the midwest and then filtering in towards the mid-atlantic and the northeast. as we get into saturday, we'll moderate a little bit. computer models are showing much colder air arctic air moving as far south as the gulf coast and we will be 10 to 20 degrees below average as we get into monday and tuesday of next week. so we'll keep you posted. lauren: janice, i don't like your language this morning, young lady. janice: my apologies. i want to see that new parka on instagram. lauren: it's shiny. thank you. ashley: thank you very much. at least we're smiling. coming up, a massive cleanup underway after a texas-size trackdown on homeless camps in austin. aishah hasnie is there and aishah, what do you have coming

ashley: apple's affordable housing plan in california is coming under attack from senator bernie sanders. the democrat presidential candidate accusing the company of, well, trying to distract from the fact, he says, that apple helped to create california's housing crisis, an deers adding apple has done this
