6:01 pm
energy, consumer cyclicals, let today's selloff. three new cluster of coronavirus cases out sight of china, china, italy, south korea and iran. we have edward lawrence in washington. edward? reporter: with pageantry out in india, president trump said the u.s. would sell $3 billion of american military equipment to india. that is intended to deepen the connection between the u.s. and india. president donald trump wanting to open the indian market to direct investment by u.s. companies as well as lower tariffs on u.s. products. >> we are in the early stages of discussion for an incredible trade agreement to reduce barriers of investment between the united states and india. and i am optimistic that working
6:02 pm
together, the prime minister and i can reach a fantastic deal that's good and even great for both of our countries. reporter: that was a huge stadium, 110,000 people as you said, filled to capacity. the president taking his message directly to the people of india. >> america loves india. america respects india. and america will always be faithful and loyal friends to the indian people. [cheering] the story of the indian nation is a tale of astounding progress, a miracle of democracy, extraordinary diversity, and above all, a strong and noble people. india's rise as a prosperous and independent nation is an example to every nation all over the world. one of the most outstanding achievements of our century. in america, and in india, we know that we are all born for a
6:03 pm
higher purpose, to reach toward our fullest potential, to work toward excellence and perfection and to give all glory to god. reporter: senior white house official says there was never going to be a full trade deal announced during this trip but i'm told from the official it is a very important first step to get those negotiations going. the u.s. has a trade deficit with india of $24 billion last year in 2019. liz, back to you. liz: great to see you, edward. thank you so much. for his reaction bring in retired four-star general, fox news senior strategic analyst, general jack keane. your reaction in the world's biggest cricket stadium. didn't the media claim the president is not respects overseas? >> there are some reports to that fact. i know i deal with international leaders and there is no doubt the fact there is a sense that america is stronger, its economy is certainly stronger, its
6:04 pm
defense is being rebuilt, we're working with allies in europe to stand up against russia. we're working with allies in the far east to stand up against china. so, yeah, i think this is the way normal leaders are dealing with the president. i'm delighted to see him there. india truly matters as we're dealing with russia and dealing with china. liz: we're just seeing the dow futures ticking and s&p futures and nasdaq going into the green right now. futures moving higher into the green. general, all of china's neighbors, 14 countries that share a land border with china announced they have either sealed their border partially or have travel restrictions on chain. turkey and pakistan shut its border with iran over the weekend. china is postponing the opening of parliament for the first time in decades. look at that map. general, your reaction to what is going on with coronavirus? >> obviously this is a very contagious virus by comparison to others. others have been more fatal but certainly it is the contagious
6:05 pm
nature, the fact that it is not detected and can live inside of your body for a while. meanwhile you're transmitting that to other people i think is contributing to the epidemic that is in china and not quite a pandemic yet. it has got to be a concern. the concerns over the weekend were, where it spiked in three countries, so in south korea, iran, and italy, the numbers were lower than they just jumped and i think that has got people's attention and reflects the contagious nature of this disease and how quickly it can spread. liz: now it is hitting other things. the tokyo olympics were set for july could be in jeopardy. japan has the second highest rate behind china. the torch relay for the olympics was starting next month in greece. it may not happen. what is your reaction to that? >> i had not heard that. if it does, there have to be a lot of precautions to make that possible. i do believe people are
6:06 pm
gathering in events around the world in various places and countries where there is not any presence of the disease. certainly in the united states even though there is a, there are 53 cases that is not stopping people from attending sporting events, concerts and the like. so, i think there is still a sense of normalcy out there even though a rising level of concern. liz: i want to get back to india. the president report he heedly announcing a 3 billion-dollar sale of defense equipment to india. >> india is a country that always maintained its neutrality however it had a closer relationship with russia anyone any other country and most of their defense equipment they buy outside of the country comes from russia. so the fact we're entering into a fairly significant defense deal with india is very important because that, that
6:07 pm
absolutely puts center stage the fact the relationship between the united states and india is moving closer together and that's a good thing. the other issue here china is intimidating and coercing india by their naval presence in the indian ocean, the economic predatory nature of the country and what they have done with other countries as well. and the united states getting closer to india is a very good thing. it is no accident that we renamed pacific command which is the command that oversees the far east and southeast asia to the indo-pacific command. that is to recognize we're pulling india in to our allies in orbit in that region to be able to geopolitically push back on china, not just economically which we're talking about here but also geopolitically. this is very important visit for the united states and for india. liz: and pushing back with pakistan and afghanistan as well. so the president is really reset
6:08 pm
the geopolitical stage in his three years, right, general? >> he has in the sense that, we have the defined the strategic framework we're actually confronting. the previous administration did not do that. big power competition between china and russia. iran's attempt to dominate the middle east and continuing presence of radical islam and some places the rise of it, all of those issues now are, have plans and that are being developed to deal with the reality of those issues. so, yes, he reset the strategic landscape. i mean, it is not perfect by any means. i don't want our audience to think that. there are issues like normally with execution and we've had our missteps certainly but, we got the strategic landscape in terms of what we're confronting absolutely right. liz: general, thank you and thank you for your service to our country. >> great talking to you, liz. liz: harvey weinstein, his defense team is vowing to appeal after the disgraced producer was

6:15 pm
he has organizations everywhere. here in california he is really strong. he will win by a huge amount, 495 delegates and what he's doing has been contacting people for weeks in each of these states whereas mayor pete and klobuchar and even biden are just now putting together their organizations in some of these states. liz: he has the ground campaign i get it, the ground game. let me get back, buttigieg slamming sanders saying senator sanders believes in inflexible idealogical revolution that would leave out most americans. this is pete buttigieg's direct quote. the capitalism is the roots of all evil. will redistrict the american economy that americans don't support. your reaction to james carville on this. >> voting for him because you think he will win the election and galvanize heretofore sleepy parts of electorate politically you're a fool. i don't think they have all the facts they need before they make this judgment going forward.
6:16 pm
>> sounds a lot like political suicide and i think we need -- >> it is. liz: tom, here is the inside scoop. tom, you're astute at this, you're great at this. here is what democrats now fear, this is what they're seeing. the battle will be fought in the suburbs. republicans can win back largely affluent suburbs that rebelled against the republicans in 2018 when the democrats took back the house. the thinking that sanders will cost them their house majority because of the suburbs, your take. >> i've been predicting the house will flip for a long time now. the reason, there are only 18 seats and economy is doing so well. they're right about bernie but that doesn't matter in the primary process for democrats. he only needs 30% in each super tuesday state to win. he consolidated the wing of the party that agrees with him on those points or disagrees with carville. liz: we hear what you're saying. house democrat majority whip, tom, jim clyburn warning that
6:17 pm
south carolinaians don't want bernie's socialism. watch this. >> i do believe it will be an extra burden for to us have to carry. this is south carolina and south carolinians are pretty leery about that title socialist. and so i think that would be a real burden for us in these states or congressional districts that we have to do well in. these are basically moderate and conservative districts that we did well in. and in those districts it will be tough to hold on to these jobs if you have to make the case for accepting self-proclaimed democratic social i. >> so, we hear what you're saying about the primaries, we get it. but what we're reporting now a preview what you will see in the upcoming general election because now anonymous democrat 2020 campaign is poll testing this message in six message in
6:18 pm
battleground states. he is socialist and supports big government plans that will lead to higher taxes and destroy your way of life? >> i agree he will lose a national election, it will hurt him in florida what we saw with castro and the like. yeah, he is a bad candidate for him. you know what? that wing of the party is here to stay. we'll have this same discussion in four years when elizabeth warren tries to take it over or kamala harris. when socialist gets tentacles in a party she strangle it and fight hard in the beginning. >> to your point, the media pushing back against bernie sanders and his problematic math. the question for you, tom, after you hear the sound bite, have they fallen down on the job? we've been going to bernie's math the last three years. anderson cooper take on bernie. >> those are expensive propositions but we've done our best on issue after issue paying for them.
6:19 pm
>> do you know how much? >> do you have a price tag for you will after this. >> we do. the price tag is, it wit be substantially less than letting the current system go. i think it is about 30 trillion. >> that is just for "medicare for all." >> just "medicare for all." >> do you have a price tag for all of these things. >> no, i don't. liz: $30 trillion is not a rounding error. he can't say what it will cost. his math doesn't add up. he is says he is going to raise the minimum wage but will tax the poor 30,000 and the middle class. "green new deal," wipe out middle class jobs. tax stock trades and wealth to pay for student tuition when the tax will hit students retirement savings. it goes on and on, tom. pushback, in other words holding bernie accountable saying we don't know, 30 trillion, 60 trillion, you know what i mean? pushback seems to be starting now. >> it is and it is late. you remember they went after elizabeth warren when she wouldn't answer for her tax. they ignored bernie sanders all along because they didn't think
6:20 pm
crazy bernie would have the staying power but they misunderestimated it as george bush 43 would have said because he had such loyal followers. is there enough time before super tuesday for all the media to go after him saying bernie is not the kind of guy? i don't think so but eventually they will fall. liz: still in february. one final point, bernie as a 1%. look at full screen shot, bernie's credibility is at stake. he spent 1.6 million in private jets last year. flies first class. owns three hopes. worth 2 1/2 million bucks. look how much he donated to charity over the last 10 years. usually a candidate give like 10%. bernie gives 2% of his income to charity. final word? >> can't win the general election but in a crowded field he will win the democrat party nomination or at least have the most delegates. that is what i predicted march 18th. i think it still holds true. liz: come back soon. >> okay. liz: up ahead as we reported

6:26 pm
with. what you start to speculate what the significance of the intelligence is, it is pretty clear that the debriefers didn't giver the background and the actual intelligence to those that they were briefing, you know, in the house. it was always, to me subject to some question about where that was going to land because you didn't have the benefit of the actual facts. we still don't. liz: right. democrats may have been pushing u.s. intelligence official shelby pierson on russia. here and media did not give adequate context what she was saying, russia always interferes. we question what the media is covering. "the times" story had no signal intelligence, no intercepted emails or conversation or which russian unit or contractor was helping the president. so it seemed like pretty slim. >> i don't know how serious it is. if you're talking about the russians monitoring websites and engaging what i think amounts to fairly typical and routine activity that is one thing. things more serious in terms of
6:27 pm
trying to pick winners and losers, maybe we should be more concerned about but without having the facts i thought it was overblown to be suggesting one way or another what the significance of that actually was. liz: yeah. >> you have to understand also, it is in a political context. liz: right. >> you have people, members of congress behind closed doors with the intelligence briefing trying to push back to suggest one way, pushing one way politically or the other and you have to be very careful about that in the intelligence world about again, the conclusions that you draw and in an election year. liz: and leaking it. to your point, president trump is accusing adam schiff leaking classified information. >> what he was concerned about from the beginning. liz: watch this, watch. >> i read where russia is helping bernie sanders. nobody said it to me at all. nobody briefed me about that at all. the, what they try and do is certain people like, certain people have information, no different than it has been but i have not been briefed on that at all. nobody told me about it. they leaked it, adam schiff and
6:28 pm
his group, leaked it to the papers and as usual, they ought to investigate adam schiff for leaking that information. liz: then the president tweeted, i suggest calling bob mueller and 13 angry democrats to do a new mueller report democrat edition. here is the president saying he was also never briefed on russian efforts to help bernie sanders as bernie sanders says he was told about russia interfering to help the sanders campaign about a month ago. watch this. >> i say to mr. putin, if elected president, trust me, you are not going to be interfering in american elections. >> when were you briefed on this? >> i'm guessing about a month ago. as president of the united states, mr. putin, you will not interfere in our elections. thanks very much. >> how if it came out now, if the briefing was a month ago? >> i will let you guess, one day before the iowa, nevada caucus. why do you think it came out? "washington post." good friends. liz: sanders, why didn't sanders
6:29 pm
reveal this a month ago? now he is going after the post for reporting this? why didn't he reveal it a month ago? >> everybody understands the political sensitivity of this, why i think the intelligence community in the future needs to be much more careful about what conclusions it draws and careful in responding to questions. i think also the president is suggesting listen, i don't know why these things are going forward and i don't even know about them. i understand he is a candidate for re-election but i think, this sort of information is highly sensitive as it is, should be carefully controlled, conclusions ought to be precise and you know, engaging in sort of what does it all mean in the middle of an election cycle seems to me to be particularly problematic because it tends to have an effect on a candidacy or election. liz: that is a good point. >> we all need to be more careful. liz: facebook, facebook reportedly investigating suspicious pro-sanders content on facebook.
6:30 pm
couldn't substantiate claims that russia or trump campaign or supporters were involved. so much of the media convinced that the president is a russian operative. after this now debunked "new york times" story, watch this. >> this is one of those shocking news days, if you retain the capacity to be shocked. >> the russians are coming. >> yes, they are. >> and they're coming again for their main man, donald j. trump. >> the russians are up again, up to it again. pressing information again. >> i think frankly the president welcomes it, he wants it. >> it would be bad enough to learn russians are back at it helping trump. much worse than trump appears to try to cover it up. >> what do you mean be back? they never left. >> the president is a russian operative. liz: the scandal way less than it appears. "bloomberg news" eli lake writing, schiff who was present at briefing in question knows there is no formal intelligence finding that russia is meddling on behalf of trump. that is what the sources telling
6:31 pm
him. >> it goes back to things you just showed. the russians have back at it. back at what? everybody needs to be more precise before you wander off into wild speculation and it is another bombshell report and this is shocking to hold on a second, it is an election year. everybody is going to play with this because they're doing it for purposes of potential political advantage and before we start running off and running off to one side of the deck of the titanic and the other, we ought to better understand what the actual facts are that back up -- liz: take a moment. >> whatever the intelligence supposedly is. i'm not suggesting we shouldn't be concerned about it, we need to be concerned about it, not tasked or divorced from facts. >> i hear what you're saying. here is what congressman john ratcliffe told maria bartiromo this. watch this. >> why russia is being so successful shaking american confidence in the integrity of our elections and the reason is, it is because democrats keep
6:32 pm
perpetuateing and accentuating and proliferating russian propaganda for their political gain and for their political motivation against donald trump. it is democrats that created the steele dossier and pedaled it to the law enforcement and intelligence communities. liz: you're quick reaction. >> sewing discord is easy if one side for political advantage seeking to take advantage of that and running again off into the land of wild speculation without basing the intelligence on what facts support the conclusions that you're trying to draw. liz: robert ray, you're great. will you come back. >> of course. thanks very much. good to see you. liz: wonderful robert ray. up next, florida democrat donna shalala blasting bernie sanders, saying bernie, you need an education in communism atrocities after bernie doubled down applauding cuba's fidel castro for getting his people reading? basically, basically bernie is saying castro helped people to read. weren't there other way to

6:39 pm
with brutal dictators went awry? would he actually use the threat of fire and fury like president trump has? i think his track record wanting to slash defense spending tell us the answer on that. liz: the question is, he is acting like an apologist and essentially whitewashing communist cuba's atrocities in other countries as well. democrat donna shalala is doing that, representing florida. bernie needs to get educated on this murderous tyrant castro. take time to speak to some constituents in florida before you sing the praises of fidel castro. bernie's point he got people reading, castro got people reading in cuba, you wonder if bernie lost florida? weren't there other ways to literacy in cuba than turning if it into aiguille large.
