6:05 pm
>> i have to disagree with one thing, today was in a incredibly boring day. no real news. i know it's short job to make little dues into big thing with these tariffs, let's just realize this is a negotiation and until it's done, nothing is there. everything is a moving part. let's not think the ship will capsize just because there's a slightly different emphasis on what's being negotiated. >> i will agree with that, but why didn't they look at it that way and realized the market is listening and hinging on every word and statement he makes? he just needs time to figure it out but let's step off the gasket, i would disagree with
6:06 pm
you and not we were gaining a lot of steam with the market and today as soon as the market hears this. >> what trump said today was, this is an ongoing negotiation, have not agreed to anything. if he agreed, the negotiation would be over. he has not done gas on the fire, he threw a fire extinguisher on it. the fire the media started this week but planted false statements, they agreed on rolling back tariffs when trump said have not agreed on anything. who is exciting the market? i say trump is coming down. i'm honored to be your guest, i will tell you the truth, that's how i see it. >> let's talk about the market, economy with respect to china and phase one deal.

when you look at the data we are seeing conflicting of what's happening here. experts are down. what i watch particularly is the consumer and consumer spending. everyone was worried tariffs would trickle down and consumers pull back. that's two thirds of activity here in the u.s. while experts are down, consumer spending has continued to pick up in the last couple of months or has been stable. the consumer is alive and well. do you agree that's the most important part right now? >> i do agree. explain why that's true. everybody just assumed the tariffs were like a ticket sales tax. what nobody thought of yet and a half ago, as soon as tariffs
6:08 pm
were announced, the chinese currency will begin. i said that, no one else did. his phone as much as 14%. the tariffs get put in place, unlike half of the stuff from china but everything we buy from china has been put on sale because the currency depreciated by 14%. that's what the consumer is not affected if inflation is lower today. >> excellent explanation. the person i. sara: says cap as long as they get the market continued to rally, we are not worried about impeachment. we don't think it will get you removal stage in terms of the president status. it doesn't matter. >> i think it matters in reverse. i think the stock market wants to see trump reelected if for no other reason because all the other alternatives market legal. this impeachment circus is going
6:09 pm
to bring out drums base in 2020. all elections are determined by turnout. this circus is causing republicans might have said okay, i board, i will stay home, they said i will get out and support my president. this is an unfair process. i'm going to get out to support this man. every word that comes out of just mouth is one more vote for trump. the democrats are going to backfire this on themselves just like they did with the kavanaugh hearings 2018. loss to the senate seats because of this and they never lived. >> great to see you. another day of records, the nasdaq.

6:17 pm
articles of impeachment. the outcome two or three weeks later. we don't know revolving witnesses quickly. they have until 11:20 a.m. tomorrow to make that request to shift anytime you have these big hearings, you don't know what to expect. at the moment that we put the robert this is been impeachment here cap. >> thank you for that. the president says the only making them stronger. let's discuss both development the council and court fox news jupiter. ken, grade 20. >> let's start with jim jordan assigned to serve on the house intelligence committee to be part of the hearings.

6:19 pm
going to result potentially in the overturning of an election say all bets are off. we had an election but now we are going to seek to remove the president is colossally important. it needs to be the government and sunshine. we all need to see come to our own evaluation of witnesses one way or another. >> let's talk about, he did not show up to testify. your thoughts on the president's aid getting involved in this and even if the house is not able to prove there was an issue where a crime committed in respect to ukraine this turns into a obstruction conversation. >> writes. i have real concerns in terms of separation of power system. wherever the president is, he or she needs to know when the
6:20 pm
president is communicating with someone close as the chief of staff here, those conversations are powerfully confidential. you can't carry on the business of government. judges can't carry on the work that they don't have confidentiality in chambers. the supreme court recognized that nine to nothing in the nixon case. that's the role of executive privilege. it is to encourage confidential and candid conversations about the president eight in the present. the president need to hear from them and be completely honest and forthright with them. those conversations. sara: state in the oval office. it's understandable to me that step one would be let's not have nick testify about but now the process will unfold.
6:21 pm
>> the president is considering releasing the second transcript. you think it's a good idea? >> i think it is the slippery slope. i was more than a bit concerned. about the release of the first transcript. necessity is the mother of invention. the president has said this, he needs to be able to keep his conversations with ford leaders confidential. i think we all recognize that, it is common sense in the conduct of business. let us hope these are the exceptions that prove the rule of the president and how the conversation with whomever and facebook remain, and. the conversations themselves should remain confidential until

6:49 pm
mexico. the president's top between a rock and a hard place. it's easy for him to say we tried it didn't work for the week before, we have this horrible shooting in sonora, they lost 14 federal agents to the cartels. they were forced to release the son of a child of. it was a terrible murder. i've seen the video, they show their faces off. mexico is approaching they will be of failed states that they don't take this into consideration. they need to he. we need to designate these cartels as foreign terrorist groups. that's the way we start this. >> the president also said for
6:50 pm
as long as i can remember, he wants to secure the board. he has thought that with a lot of resistance. what will it take to realize this is a crisis? >> the democrats saying this is a manufactured crisis. they been saying that for you and refuse to work with us. all they want to do is talk about impeachment. this impeachment situation going on about that talk about. we have great bills gathering dust in the house committees. the leadership in the democratic party doesn't want to do anything except try to undo the 2016 election. the main thing, this is a serious house border security cochairmen caucus.
6:51 pm
this is absolutely -- what you said is exactly right. we have to secure the border. i've been to the board numerous times. told us that not only to check coming north we need to check traffic going south because many times, we have a personnel or ice ages have been dealing with thousands and thousands of illegals coming across but we have to check southbound traffic for money and weapons going down. mexico is getting weaponry out of the u.s. and we have to stop the illegal trade. >> administration is proposing to increase fees for u.s. citizenship. application fees, $61 to 1000,
6:52 pm

jackie: the presidential race is getting a lot more interesting. mike bloomberg considering jumping into the democratic race. my next guest is a member of the "wall street journal" editorial board. mike bloomberg has filed in alabama. he said if we run we are confident we can win in states on super tuesday. how does mike bloomberg change this race? >> this is a guy who created a very successful company. ran the largest city in the united states and checks all the boxes for liberals. he has the sin of being a billionaire. but he's an environmental activist. he was the guy who tried to stop us from buying the big gulp.
6:58 pm
the food police. so i think he brings a lot of excitement to this race. and it's very not promising for democrats. i don't think elizabeth warren can win in the general election. she is too far to the left. many democrats are signaling that this week. criticizing her war against rich people and medicare for all and how it doesn't add up. bloomberg sees that and says who else is there. jackie: biden is on par with bloomberg the most. he calls him a solid guy. president trump called him little michael but said he can take him on. when it comes to joe biden versus bloomberg, they are very different. >> i haven't seen bloomberg speaking have much recently. but if you look at all the
6:59 pm
problems joe biden has in communicate together electorate. i think bloomberg assessed that and thought i can step into that vacuum. biden has trouble. as we know, the year ahead for hip is going to be grueling. when you take somebody who seems unstable and a little bit overwhelmed by all of the demand in a campaign and put him into the next year, i don't think biden can hold up. >> the last poll found a third of people said they were neutral on him. a quarter were unsure or didn't even know his name. >> he has a lot of work to do, but he has a lot of money and he knows how to run an organization and he's a very successful businessman. the fact that donald trump is already calling him names suggests to me that donald trump thinks he can be a viable
