we will show you how to nancy pelosi warned that giving president obama credit is a losing message against trump, voters will not believe it. also tonight, we have the latest on liberal of the new york times and former top democrat senator harry reid joining alexandria ocasio-cortez to join bernie that your medicare for all plan will never be enacted. as new internal republican pulling about again voters show they could give republicans back the house away from pellucid because of bernie sanders. more elizabeth warren hammering away at michael bloomberg, michael bloomberg giving in, and he did it again, trump breakthrough giving the taliban to the table in the peace deal, we have the details. reports coming in the pushback big time against the new york times story that russia is interfering again to help president trump as the news broke this afternoon, bernie sanders, the washington post,

has been briefed that russia wants to help his campaign. thank you for joining us i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. liz: at this hour president trump on a move from the white house after the rally in vegas today, the president taken a right to democrats, the nevada caucus is tomorrow, the president does have the moment momentum, bloomberg is naturally president trump with billboards in phoenix and las vegas were trump was campaigning. a new poll shows the president would defeat all the democrats in wisconsin betty trails in pennsylvania and michigan. this is the president hits record high in his approval rating with average polls and gallup polling and more. the best indication to watch for the reelection is americans, they say they are better off now

than a year ago, even four years ago. mark is on about ground in nevada with more. >> president trump a plenty to say earlier it was pact. hitting on a number of different subjects the economy, his backer, but he had some words for the 2020 democratic presidential candidates, they help to replace him coming november. >> mike is a bus. mini mike he was a beauty, what happened to him. he could not breathe. what happened, mike would like to know. how about pocahontas screaming at him. she made a comeback because she took mini mike to the cleaners. >> the president had a packed house in las vegas with many supporters coming from hours away. we were surprised of how many people came to california to las vegas for this event. we caught up with a few of them before the rally.

>> trump supporter. i came from california because he does not do rallies in california that's why we are here. >> california can be stereotyped but there's actually like many states liberal feelings are in pockets and the rest of the state often feels pro trump. >> we did see a lot of the trump signs at the rally, there is a digital billboard here in vegas that is on a number of different topics on his golf game, financial history, more coming from mike bloomberg's campaign, the president has some tough for its for mike bloomberg and bloomberg is putting] the president over the last several weeks. as you mention he is no longer in las vegas, he's on his way to washington this hour and a hud to india over the weekend for a quick overseas trip but there's more campaign rallies on the schedule because the south carolina primary is only a

couple of days away and there will be a rally in north charleston in north carolina shortly thereafter. >> there we go. we will be coming back for all the rallies and more coverage of the race. the president is reporting again hitting the democrats hard. listen to this. >> as we keep on winning washington, democrats keep on losing their mind, they've gone nuts, that's why millions of registered democrats, voters, people with the democrats for a long time, they are leaving their party to join our movement. liz: let's bring in fox news contributor editorial board member. first of all we never seen a president take the fight right to them in their campaign front yard. is he right -- is about momentum, is a president right that he is pulling off democra democrats? >> i don't know the number but

in the battleground states, ohio, pennsylvania, blue-collar workers, mostly union workers that voted for president obama twice but voted for donald trump, and the question is, how did the democrats get the people back? >> here's why the trump rally joins the huge crowds, people love heroes, americans love heroes. the crowds went nuts when he give a shout out to the veterans of the 75th anniversary of the battle this week. it was very moving. >> 75 years ago this week the united states marines landed on the shores and began one of the bloodiest battles of the second world war, it was a rough one. tonight it is our great privilege to be joined by three of the heroes of the battle, james, donald and john.

[cheering] usa, usa, usa. great, great patriots, very bright people. >> people line up overnight for that stuff. in contrast in the state of the union we had the tuskegee airmen that people could not stand for, democrats could not stand for. people like that, these guys are heroes. it was a terrible bloodied battle and these guys deserve all the applause they can get. in the trump rally and people who attend them are entertaining. >> people scratch their head, if you're honoring vets and having fun, why would you not go. >> economic story, the positive aspiration narrative, let's turn to the democrats, but bernie sanders telling 60 minutes the president will chew up bloomberg and spit him out, do you agree with that? >> i will say michael bloomberg is trying to hold donald trump, he has to stand on the stage of

his fellow democrats pre-donald trump chewed up all these republicans that went after him first. and mayor bloomberg had a case to make making exactly the opposite case apologizing for his achievements and not been able to answer any questions. i do not see it. i do not see how he's going to take it. i'm gonna be more noxious than donald trump it's a losing game. liz: there's great pushback against the new york times story that russia is trying to help the president get reelected. bernie sanders was briefed by intelligence officials that russia is trying to help improve we know russia plays a long day. your take on all this? >> i think if you go back, it seems no doubt that russia would want to create mischief and a lot of the findings before were showing they were not for one can do together, they want to create mischief and discord in the u.s., and they did in the impeachment trial. >> but the new york times story had people on msnbc and saying

trump is a russian asset. we had two years of the intelligence community, james clapper and john brennan said this and it's outrageous what they think. i'm not sure this helps democrats, we will go down this road again, i don't think so. donald trump's ratings rose during impeachment. this is what we want to do. here's the other back story, the big story going on in the democratic race. bloomberg and pete buttigieg warning that sanders at the top of the ticket they will not be the president and we have new republican pulling showing battleground voters are saying we do not want bernie sanders, maybe the house will go back to the republicans for nancy pelosi. >> those we can speculate all day. in some sense i think bernie sanders because even democrats are accusing him -- would be easier. if mayor bloomberg were the nominee, i think there would be so many bernie supporters that would be upset. if he gets us through broke brod

convention, i don't think the democratic party comes together. liz: they will try to protest that, and a lot of people saying they stole him from her. >> here is senato senator warrer campaign pulling in millions after she took on bloomberg over sexism. watch how she shows off her new contract that he could sign and get his former employees released from the nondisclosure agreement. a lot of lawsuits against bloomberg operation over this. >> i wrote up a release and covenant not to sue and all that mayor bloomberg has to do is download it, i will text it. [laughter] , sign it and then the women or men will be free to speak and tell their own story under this release it is now the other person's choice to disclose such information or not.

i think that the mayor should sign this and we all have a right to see it. >> just in the past hour or so, the bloomberg campaign said yes there are three nda's over the last 30 years, we will release these women and they can talk. what do you think of that. >> i think she is very deathly putting the knife in. she did it during the debate. but partly she did it because she was so unprepared for. you would know that that would be one of the top questions. instead of having this answer, saying it and moving on, he kinda stuttered and look like a boxer on the ropes is getting pummeled. that was the interesting thing about michael bloomberg, how badly he was prepared for a think what he had to expect were obvious questions. liz: there's a perspective that voters go into the booth and say how do i feel, watch this from ronald reagan. >> are you better off than you were four years ago?

is it easier for you to go invite things in the store then it was for years ago? is there more or less unemployment in the country than there was four years ago? is america as respected throughout the world as it was? do you feel that our security is as safe there were strong as we were four years ago? and if you answer all those questions yes while then i think your choices very obvious for who you vote for. liz: ever since reagan said that 1980, we've seen the truth in every election. >> he is going after the misery index and people forget just how bad and hopeless those years looked and capped off by our hostages in iran. in 1984 when reagan had turned over "good morning america", i think donald trump is running on that, he spices it up with insults to mayor bloomberg and maybe mrs. pusey but it's basically the same thing.

there is opportunity. the striking thing to me about the democratic, not like socialism, it does not seem to be a single democrat that can say a positive thing about the private sector. liz: and the economy. >> and businesses that create jobs, profit is usually preced preceded, it's just angry. i don't think that's the party of jfk for example. liz: michael bloomberg introduced capitalism he got booed. >> he should've been more vigorously on that. creating jobs for real men and women. liz: great analysis. a really great writer. come back. let's get you updated on the harvey weinstein. this is the face of the "me too" movement, the sexual assault

trial rocked hollywood, it appears that jurors are deadlocked on the most serious accounts against him. two charges of predatory sexual assault, those carry a life sentence in prison each but jurors have reached a unanimous verdict on three of the fight counts first-degree rate, 1 degree rape in a sexual act. the judge reported that they keep deliberating on this developing story. who really lost the democrat debate, the credibility of the entire democrats is at stake, they think they can when selling a negative narrative in negative story. it looks like democrats only have two paths going forward, they are taking them but they could be rose to nowhere. we will explain next. ♪

this the beginning of the end of america's longest war? fox news at the state department with more. >> this is the first in a series of steps between the united states and taliban the goal is to end the u.s. time in afghanistan, 18 years of conflict in that country. what happens now, you have the reduction in violence agreement in afghanistan, if that holds for the next week there will be a signing ceremony between the united states and the taliban and after that in early march that sets up a process where the taliban and the afghan government would kick off negotiations. secretary of state mike pompeo has been traveling in the middle east over the past few days, he said the goal in these discussions is to ensure no terrorist group ever uses afghanistan to threaten the united states were american allies like al-qaeda did leading to the september 11 attack. in a statement the taliban says

both parties will make arrangements for the release of prisoners, structure a path for inter-afghan negotiation with various political parties of the country and finally lay the groundwork for peace across the country with the withdrawal of all foreign forces. senior administration officials say the u.s. troop withdrawal would be in phases and based on the taliban living up to its commitment in the agreement. the official acknowledges there could be spoilers, those in afghanistan who prefer to continue the work and keep fighting, the representative for afghanistan has led the negotiations in the state department official says he will sign on behalf of the united states. this agreement requires the elected government in the taliban to start with these discussions but remember the taliban has been unwilling previously to speak with the government in afghanistan so a lot of uncertainty moving forward as those two begin their negotiation early next month. >> great to see you. thank you for your reporting. let's bring in my next guest,

she's very heavily watched in d.c., fox news former policy and former state department official. your reaction to the peace agreement, by the way we should point out over 157,000 people have been killed in the war in afghanistan since 2001, what was your reaction when he heard that? >> to me it represents a strategy and doctrine of the trump administration that has been ignored by so much of the media and foreign-policy community. the president is attempting to deliver on what he not only campaigned on but what he strategized for a number of years, he has said we should not be in endless wars, he is also understood that it's a step reduction to get us out of the wars, he understands that we have to negotiate and engage with reactors like the taliban

but there is now because of the maximum diplomacy campaign toward afghanistan that the president has organized within the country and around the globe a match of the afghan people. while the afghan people want a political process, the united states wants to make sure that afghanistan is a deny territory for global tariffs that can affect the u.s. those objectives are coming together and it means that the united states can begin the process if the violence reduction. works out and negotiation follow. begin the process of reducing our forces while leaving every digital counterterrorism force that is consistent with most parties including the taliban would accept. this is an exceptional moment,

we have to be cautiously optimistic but it's what strategy and doctrine look like when washington put forward. liz: washington post reporting that national security officials are saying they do not believe a withdrawal of troops from afghanistan, is the taliban going to knock out the afghan government once the u.s. rose on the troops? >> that is the million-dollar question, there are lots of million-dollar questions associated with what can happen. many of the naysayers say the taliban -- the minute the u.s. draws down revert to prior behavior. but there also incentives for the taliban to be part of the political future that is much more representative for the afghan people. they even had to make concessions around women's rights. there will be redlines for all sides but we have not gotten that far yet. i would dismiss the elite community that wants to say there's no pathway because we have to work with the parties that we have.

liz: let's switch gears, reports coming in big pushback against new york times story that intelligence official warned b house lawmakers that russia is interfering again to reelect the president. cnn tweeting this that the story could be overstated that russia -- instead the story could be russia meddling again, we also have reports coming in in the washington post saying bernie sanders has been briefed by intelligence officials that russia is trying to help him get elected. >> it's all over the place. i wish we could do a very long segment on russian and international meddling in u.s. and other elections. this is been a problem throughout world history, whenever there is an election there are parties outside of the sovereign state who have an interest in the outcome. it is not clear to me that the russians have an interest in donald trump being reelected.

the sanctions of the u.s. put on russia have been crushing, our commitment to working with the central european against russian meddling in their part of the world and the clarity in which we have said our interest matches with theirs. i don't see this as an effort by the russians to reelect donald trump or to elect bernie sanders. it is standard international behavior. liz: thank you so much for your insight. come back soon. up next, how the economy is not just hitting, it is just hitting unprecedented milestones for democrats trying to say the president trump did not build that, we did. president obama tweeted that claim out this week but we will show you how to nancy pelosi leadership is warning given president obama credit is a losing message for 2020 democrats. that story next. ♪

liz: the growing debate, is this the biggest loser in the 2020 democrat debate, is that the entire state credibility on the economy? democrats keep saying the economy is bad, america is bad, the whole story about prosperity is not helping everybody. now democrats say it wasn't trump who built it, it was democrats. it does not add up, let's welcome my next guest, great to see you. your reaction, the economy is not just healthy, it is reaching unprecedented milestones. your take? >> when you look at the economy it's hard to make the case that things are not getting better in the not very, very good right now. we have not seen unemployment rate this lot for this long going all the way back to the 1950s, if you look at the misery index in the inflation

rate, it is the lowest it's been since 1955. the share of consumers, the gallup poll does a survey, 5000 households, what's the biggest problem in america today, the share of economic conditions is the lowest it's been since they've done the survey. it is just not going to self you gonna try to convince people things are not good right now. you are also seen wage growth is something extraordinary for low-wage workers, outpacing by the widest margin and a generation, here is the thing, history is on that president. since george washington, a strong economy, they have lost because economic weakness in the recession of downturn. in look at this, president barack obama tweeted i own the economic boom, his stimulus created the boom, and then you see pelosi's leadership team

saying the battleground voters, if you try to do that and say it's obama's economy, it will not play, it's a losing message against trump, your reaction? >> i figured the really hard-sell, certainly the recession ended way back in 2009, we had a verse though economic recovery, all of it was heavy regulatory burdens based on businesses. what we seen in recent years as regulation came up, we saw a broadly manufacture recovery in the recovery of manufacturing has been the strongest and durable that we've seen more than 40 years, that's made a real difference because there's a lot of parts of the economy that we did not see in the recovery during the last decade and they only within the last two years finally recovered the jobs that were lost during the recession. liz: it's been a painful

process. president obama, you know how is claiming credit, remember this, i know you're an economic historian, remember 2009 the stimulus gets past and then in 2011 president obama called an emergency meeting of a joint session of congress in septembed more money, the stimulus is not working. watch this. >> tonight we meet on an urgent time for country. we continue to face an economic crisis that has left millions of our neighbors jobless. liz: then he said we need $450 billion more. he did not get it. in the same speech obama said i relay some of you have a different theory on how to grow the economy, some believe cutback the government, that is not the answer. the president did that. >> i do not want to slam obam

obama. liz: were talking about economic approach. >> i do not want to slam him because were dealing with difficult times but i've got to tell you we are very slow economic recovery and a lot of things that we tried did not work all that well. for starters, we had a housing slump and we really -- we were slow in addressing the housing market and really it's only recently got back on track and we had a lot of government spending programs that essentially paved roads that were repaved that we did not build a whole lot of lanes of traffic or new bridges that needed to be built. so we did not increase the economies capacity to grow. there were a lot of things that happen. it was a very trying time. >> understood. i don't see democrats campaigning on obama recovery. >> hillary clinton in 2016 said president trump's policies would

cost the economy 3.4 million jobs. i hear what you're saying, i just think the selection is about the narrative and what people will believe. >> i have to tell you people don't look at the numbers when they look at the voting booth. they go in there and they vote how they feel. in the gallup poll that shows that the smallest proportion of americans feel that the economy is facing problems today and most people, 90% feel good about the economy so i think the other 10% work in washington. but for most ordinary people they feel great about the economy today. >> the latest liberal to join alexandria ocasio-cortez telling bernie the medicare for all will never happen, new york times columnist also former top democrat senator harry reid, all of this happening on the evil of the nevada caucus. coming up.

russia is trying to get him elected. your take on all this? >> there is no place for election interference, the president said that, he's been very tough on russia, but this is the real key that this president can win with the boost to the american people, he has immense support, that is a fact, he is going to win and run away with it. liz: it looks like the near times ramped up the story, the media saying trump is a russian acid again, they ran with it on msnbc, they have been hammering away that trump is a russian acid again. your reaction? >> that's exactly what they do, they carried the talking point to the left with no sourcing and not talking to the white house and without any verification on the reporting, they literally make things up and do the work for the dnc for the left and all the democrat candidates. it's ridiculous and it should be malpractice, it is essentially

journalistic malpractice. liz: let's switch to the 2020 democratic race. bernie sanders wants a big government takeover plans but has about history of not showing up for senate vote. we sell that this year about 60% of the time, a third of the time in 2016 he runs below the median of senators who show up. he ranks right down there in terms of people who show up for voting. he says he will have obama's backing despite reports obama does not side with bernie because he would wipe out obamacare. and then we have this, liberal, nest of the new york times says medicare for all will not happen. aoc said that now we have senator harry reid saying that. a whole bunch of that in just a second. thus get your reaction. >> medicare for all is a sale policy, we talked about it before. bernie sanders is pushing it

forward but it's not medicare for all, it's healthcare for none. it's a government takeover of healthcare and elimination of private insurance, it's a horrible idea, it will never work in the fact the democrats think they can run on this, it shows they have 0 agenda, 0 policy, they will lose the boat to the american people. >> let's listen to what harry reid, an official, we have an interview involved about this. let's listen to what harry reid says about bernie sanders. >> senator reid has not shied away from his opinion and he didn't yesterday either. he was very strong on a big issue medicare for all that is dividing the democrats and he says he does not support it. they should do a public option per he has one democrats about moving too far to the left on immigration saying we should not be criminalized for the crossing, you cannot have open borders, were a country of love. >> that is senator reid on the eve of the nevada caucus. what are state voters -- what

are you hearing from state voters, then we have to go. >> this is democrats in disarray, harry reid buying for joe biden trying t to be in disarray, they have no agenda, no candidate and have a lot of problems on their hand. liz: great to see you. up next more on the pushback against the new york times story, that russia is interfering to help the president get reelected. bernie sanders has been brief that russia try to get him elected. we have the story coming up. ♪ ♪ all around the wind blows ♪ we would only hold on to let go ♪ ♪ blow a kiss into the sun ♪ we need someone to lean on ♪ blow a kiss into the sun ♪ all we needed somebody to lean on ♪

a top to bottom review of the office of national intelligence after reports coming in cnn and other media now pushing back against the new york times story that intelligence officials had warned house lawmakers russia is interfering again to reelect president trump. with me now republican of house judiciary. great to see your. your take on the story? >> first of all the intelligence community was politicized heavily during the obama administration. you sell some of the most vicious partisans like clapper and brennan at the heart of the whole russian collision hoax. and the president is absolutely right, he has to do complete housecleaning not only there but the department of justice. his idiotic notion that somehow the intelligence committee and the department of justice are independent to the executive

branch is constitutional nonsense. the presidency is established with these words, the executive power shall be vested in a president of the united states of america. it does not say about self-important lieutenant colonel's at the nsc, it does not say anything about attorney general's. the president exercises all executive authority, that is critically important because if he is not exercising, that means agencies and we give the most terrifying powers available to the government, the intelligent and justice community. the power to ruin people's lives is completely unchecked by the national electorate and that's a very dangerous situation. liz: cnn tweeting that the new york times story could be overstating the claim, maybe it's just russian metal and again. the same story we have heard, this new york times story had no detail from supposedly intelligent assess no reliable sources, no signal intelligence close to russian leaders like vladimir putin, no details on which russian government unit or contractor is doing the meddling. and now bernie sanders has been
