stuart: today is national candy corn day. ashley, you are first. it is going to be in the millions. ashley: any answer is ridiculous but i will go with number 4. 9 million. lauren: a lot, 5 billion, number 2. >> i'm going to run with option 3, seven billion. stuart: i will go with number one, 3 billion. that is 35 billion pounds of candy. >> how many cavities? stuart: the original name of it was chicken feed. lauren: raise your hand if you like candy corn? >> not my thing. blue one a good one. see you again tomorrow. and three second, david asman will appear. david: don't like candy corn? stuart: i never had it.
12:01 pm
david: give it a shot. it is noon on the east coast. coast-to-coast starts right now. >> bases-loaded, two out. redemption. ashley: redemption. we are not just talking the grand slam for the yankees, batterer up for the presidential candidates, pitching swing voters in the same state at the same time today. welcome to the show. i am david asman. coming up this hour, former miami marlins president dave samson talking about what is next in this fall classic, what a series it is. what kamala harris just said about biden's controversial comments about trump
12:02 pm
supporters, they may not be on the same page again. a new read on the economy, growing slower than expected, 6 days before the election. let's get reaction from fox business's edward lawrence. >> reporter: the gdp report shows 2.8%. slightly down. president biden is touting the number. he says, quote, low gdp report shows how far we have come since i took office. the biden/harris economy is one of the best in the world, the problem is what he says and the numbers as well as how people feel don't quite match. >> president biden: created 16 million new jobs, more than any single presidential term in american history. wages are up. inflation down in the same way it was before the pandemic. as a matter fact making a comeback.
12:03 pm
we can be the manufacturing capital of the world. >> reporter: according to the bureau of labor statistics the economy added back all the jobs of the pandemic and created 6. 8 million jobs, manufacturing lost a total of 28,000 jobs over the past three months of the biden/harris administration. wages are down 1.4% from the month biden and harris came into office. to the gdp report a lot of good economic data. it appears this looks good. some economists say the real government spending of taxpayer money that has masked economic weakness. >> you have a situation the past year, the government spent $2 trillion more in terms of tax revenue. no wonder the economy is doing well. >> reporter: the economy on the ballot today. as voters go into the voting
12:04 pm
box they will realize prices are up 20%, since the biden/harris administration took office and people realize their wallets aren't as full as they used to be. brian: people know the truth and thank you for those fact checks. for a read on economic numbers let's bring in chief market strategist lou basensase and taylor riggs. thank you for being here. i like the fact checking edward did on that. there was in fact a v-shaped recovery going on when biden took office. in that month we were having 6% annualized growth. 6% at 1.5% inflation rate. nevertheless, 2. 8% gdp growth ain't bad. it missed expectations. consumer spending was pretty good in this report as well.
12:05 pm
how do you balance it out? >> if you wear sunglasses you miss the facts but if you look at it, 2.8 versus 3.1% expectations. it is solid but not stellar. you have to look beneath and see a consumer trying to spend but doesn't feel they are in a good economic situation and that is the disconnect. if you look at fed data it shows the majority of people feel they are living paycheck to paycheck but only 26% are but we vote based on how we feel and how we feel a particular candidate is going to make us feel. brian: then you have interest rates, not just growth and inflation but interest rates. the fed has tried to handle, they've done a fairly good job, i would say, you could argue about how good but bottom line is the market has its own impression. the treasury is trying to do its best to sell bonds but the market is looking, look at this risk.
12:06 pm
$1.1 trillion just servicing the debt, they can't get spending under control. if trump is elected, they might be able to but then you check of the rates. despite what the fed is doing in keeping rates lower, the market is saying buying treasury bonds. lauren: i start seeing in the last few months the, quote, bond vigilantes. that's the only way -- when yields rapidly increase the way we have seen not just to the level but the rate at which we've gotten there, markets pushing back and saying i need to be compensated more than 2% or 3%. you want me to buy a treasury bond for ten years out. i need three, 4, 4.5%. of the bond market is screaming at us to stop a deficit spending, stop the inflation or tamp down the high growth we might be getting on the future and that is the only way politicians will react as if the market starts to scream at them and say stop, we cannot
12:07 pm
afford bonds to your point of 4. one% with the interest rates so does the fed come in and try to lower those rates that we can issue them? david: the fed has stopped buying as much as they were earlier in the biden administration so the question is whether they will come in but i wonder about investors. don't they worry that we are spending 25% of what we are spending on all the defense budget on just servicing the debt? >> taylor is correct that investors are demanding to be repriced on the risk. investors are willing to take risk but have to be compensated because there are big deficits. saying we will buy these bond so have to pay more for that. david: i am wondering getting into the political sphere here, do you think investors are hoping for a trump when, once you getting on musk in, he will cut $2 trillion out of the budget if given a free hand in
12:08 pm
doing so by donald trump if elected, do you think investors hope that will happen? taylor: the yield market is acting as it did in 2016. looking at the bond market is this pricing in a red sweep, the reflation area higher growth, a little bit of the good high inflation on the horizon that is generally where we see yields rise on the horizon. the progrowth policy. i don't know now but either way, i have heard, don't know if we want to talk about this, no matter who wins the deficit. presidents love to spend. trump will grow out of the debt. the fiscal management, the left as we know, a trillion dollars coming up to catch up. brian: what we didn't have during the first trump administration, get with elon musk.
12:09 pm
is it possible to cut -- a lot of what he says. >> cut 9,000 software engineers and they said the infrastructure would collapse. we can agree there's plenty of government waste. david: great to see you both. to the campaign trail now. kamala harris and donald trump set to hold dueling events in north carolina within the next hour. a last ditch effort to court voters ahead of next week's election, this after president biden caused a major distraction that could undermine his vp's efforts. the white house, to do more damage control. griff jenkins live in the white house with all the details. what a busy time. >> reporter: indeed. i doubt vice president harris wanted to talk about this the day after a major speech last night but here's what president
12:10 pm
biden said in a campaign call with latino voters discussing comments made by a warm up comic at madison square garden. listen here. >> president biden: the only garbage i see floating out there is his supporters can his demonization is unconscionable and it is un-american. >> reporter: harris was asked about is a short while ago. here's what she said. >> i think that first of all he clarified his comments, but let me be clear, i strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for. >> reporter: you are right, the white house has gone into full cleanup mode putting out a corrected transcript which includes an' over the word supporters showing it was meant to be seeing geller and issuing a statement saying the president referred to the hateful rhetoric at the madison square garden rally as garbage. donald trump reacted to it last night in pennsylvania comparing
12:11 pm
this to another famous insult to his fans. >> remember hillary? she said deplorable and then she said he redeemable but she said deplorable, that didn't work out. garbage i think is worse, right? but he doesn't know you have to, please forgive him, please forgive him. for he not know what he said. >> reporter: last night president biden did not attend the event with harris and there are no plans for biden to campaign with harris between now and the election but the president continues to say he will still get out to battleground states of pennsylvania and be fighting for harris. david: thank you very much for that report. former dnc deputy press secretary is here with us. there's a little bit of an echo. frankly the clarification by president biden was pretty
12:12 pm
weak. we heard clearly on the soundbite what he said. he was talking about he had a plural in talking about supporters, not an apostrophe or a singular. the kamala folks want him to stay off the campaign trail. do you think they will succeed in the next six days of preventing him from saying something else? >> i think the president was wrong in saying that. trying to make a clarification. a lot of folks didn't buy it fully but he is upset. the president is upset how much hatred and division and racism took place in donald trump's rally. he is frustrated by that. that's first and foremost. what people care about in this is who is going to help us bring the economy back, bring inflation back to where it is now, continues create, that's what people care about, things
12:13 pm
get nasty a week before an election but the way he said it was wrong. david: president biden has been focusing on -- excuse me, donald trump has been focusing on the border. he thinks the border is the number one issue but the polls continue to show it is the economy. the next six days, he's going to be focusing on those issues, the economy, inflation, what people can afford and what they can't? >> we all agree with josé in the sense that it does come down to the economy, who will deal with inflation, who will make sure the middle-class does not feel as if they are going out of business every single day of their life. the hard truth is the biden/harris administration made it more difficult for the american middle class to survive. they can point at the numbers but as your previous guest told us, no, america did not come to a catastrophe us end as suggested but the results leave much to be desired and they
12:14 pm
keep saying they created these jobs, donald trump created 7 million jobs paris covid, we did have that v-shaped recovery and ultimately, beyond the numbers, if you look at the attitude of the political left, calling them garbage, calling them insurrectionist's, calling them deplorables, they can cleanup all they want to but in the end, every once in a while that slip of the tongue allies what they truly think. david: not just inflation, talking with market panel, and they were dealing with inflation. the market apparently the treasury was having trouble selling bonds so the market is saying you've got to give us more interest rates. these interest rates are not going to go down anytime soon, that is causing a huge problem for the average american. >> we ought to remember too that we had the biggest
12:15 pm
pandemic in modern history, not just inflation america suffered, the whole world suffered inflation. it is funny when republicans say biden took inflation to one% to 9%, it was covid 19. that is just a fact which we need to renumber we were losing jobs the last couple months under donald trump. president biden saved a us from economic disaster, vaccinated a majority of americans and put this country in the right direction. we are not there yet. the trends tell us we are going in the right direction and people need to keep in mind when they come vote on november 5th. david: you can't scratch off the extra spending. republicans were complicit in a lot of spending, the chips act for example, but all of this extra spending, the increase of the baseline, we had up 20% increase in the baseline budget. a lot of the pandemic spending
12:16 pm
during the trump administration was temporary, the stuff biden has put in for the most part is permanent, increasing the baseline by 20%. that's a huge cost and that caused inflation. >> incorrect. i said on this network before covid did not cause inflation, response to covid caused inflation. if you are going to have a macroeconomic conversation about whether america is heading on the right trajectory for the 21st century, that is a fair conversation to have. but people huddled around the kitchen table are not engaged in a macroeconomic conversation. they are not able to take a coupon for 30% off down to walgreens and say this is my pre-adjusted before covid price that i'm supposed to receive. that's the issue. if they are having that conversation, one trillion dollars in credit card debt, 600,000 americans hiding their car because they are defaulting. david: they are going to kill me for doing this but you both
12:17 pm
agree it is the economy, stupid, that's what we focus on so why are you talking nazis? i say you. you are not doing it. but your leaders are. won't that stopped quickly? >> let me say something quickly. and major generals in america say donald trump is a fascist, that's important to know. when a past president is saying he doesn't recognize the election of 2020, that is what dictators do. it is part of the conversation. david: it may be part of your conversation but not with the american people seem to care most apart compared to the economy. great to see you both. vice president harris pushing her price gouging plan again. our next guest says it will destroy food stores and hurt consumers and he knows about it even though he's a congressman, he used to own a grocery store. more on that coming up.

12:23 pm
michigan voters in terms of the economy, polls show michigan voters believe donald trump would do a better job handling the economy and bringing jobs back. what do you say to that? >> let's start with this which i come from the middle class and i will never forget where i come from. my plan includes bringing down the cost of groceries. in particular i will go after price gouging by corporations that have been jacking up prices. david: there she goes again. vice president harris once again pushing her plan for a national ban on price gouging is consumers face guy high prices. ohio congressman michael rule he who owns a grocery store says harris's plan will only hurt consumers more. good to see you. the old -- he answers every question with i came from the middle class. we got that. price gouging. have you seen any evidence at all that there was price gouging specifically from people in your business, people in the food business over the
12:24 pm
past 4 or 5 years? >> in the past four or five years, more independent grocers in ohio have gone out of business than ever before. we operate on 1.4% net. it's derelict of duty for her to go on this narrative and blame grocery stores that are operating on one. 2% net% net. that is unheard of. david: to put it in perspective. i checked out the net profit margin of apple, 25%. i don't hear any talk about price gouging at apple, do you? >> nun. david: what was your profit margin in your store? wasn't about that range? 1% to 2%? >> probably 27% gross but when you pay your bills because of payroll, payroll used to be 10% to 12%, payroll is up 18% right now. or your employees just quit.
12:25 pm
we used to be 1.7% net. they said we are lucky to break one. 2%. %. that means $1.20 is actually net. david: what would happen if she imposed price controls? that is what her price gouging plan boils down to? >> if she does these price controls you will see a lot of grocery stores go out of business. we've been in business since 1917. i don't know if we can survive such a step. david: there is also the problem besides inflation, the bundling effect of inflation. the wall street journal spelled out what that means, take a car for example. if you purchase a car, you are faced with an increase, the car price goes up 17%, new car costs up $7,000, 17% over% over january 2021 but you have to
12:26 pm
pay extra insurance, a lot more for annual cost of gasoline, pay for the car insurance and car loan increase. it all comes down to a 32% increase over car ownership now from where it was in january of 2,020 one. the bundling effect of inflation makes it feel even worse to americans. no? >> absolutely. getting a license for your car, getting your car registered, mechanic. i'm right here in new philadelphia, county seat and behind us people are doing early voting, i was talking to a bunch of them to see what the concerns are. inflation is the only suspect. are you better off than you were four years ago and with their, you are not better off than you are four years ago. david: for think goodness there's a businessman in congress who knows something

david: electric might in the bronx, bringing some life to the team's dugout. beating the dodgers 11-numfour. game 5 of the world series. nate for live in the bronx were game 5 will happen at 8:00 on fox. you were there for monday night's game. what is the feeling in the house. >> reporter: yankees fans were desperate for something good to happen. there was a fan interference early in the game where a yankees fan ripped the ball
12:33 pm
out, the big moment was delivered from us a hometown kid, the yankees 23-year-old shortstop born in manhattan, grew up in new jersey, big yankees fan. take a look at the biggest hit of his career so far, the yankees were down to the one in the game. he hit the go-ahead grand slam, the yankees facing elimination, this was a huge moment, the building a ruptured. he blacked out when the ball went over left-field fence and you can't blame him. he's living his dream. look at this picture. and 8-year-old and the yankees 2,009 world series powerade, now he is on the field bringing in another parade to new york city. >> pre-crazy to think about. it is my dream. my sister's dream too. winning the world series was first and foremost by far, more work to do. >> reporter: yankees captain aaron judge did some work on
12:34 pm
the field, drove in his first run of the world series. as you mentioned the yankees exploded for 11 runs after bats were relatively quiet for the first part of the series. you know who hasn't been quiet is dodgers first baseman freddie freeman. he has been on fire at made history after hitting a home run in the first inning. he's now homered in six world series games baiting to his time with the braves, breaking an all-time world series record. we will see if freeman can extend his streak to seven straight world series games with a homerun. we will see if the dodgers can close things out and clinch their eighth world series title or if of the yankees can extend the world series and send it back for game 6. things get interesting tonight, 8:08 on fox. david: they lost to red sox who were 0-3, they came back to win the series so this might be the ultimate revenge on the red
12:35 pm
sox. this is another story. glad you are watching it for us. a vicarious thrill when watching it. let's bring in miami marlins president and host of nothing personal, podcast, great to see you again. it has been too long. i want to talk about the personalities, freeman, aaron judge who has been struggling. we don't usually see a world series game scoring 11 points, do we? >> first thing you had was a bullpen game for the wall los angeles dodgers. the payroll they had didn't have the starting pitcher and the other situation you had, he didn't use any of his best pitches. it was all the lowest leverage guys, almost as if dave roberts was conceding the game to the yankees even though it was a one run game in the middle inning is, you still didn't see his best because he wanted to
12:36 pm
wait for another day like today not to take anything away from the yankees offensive output, getting 11 runs was important but that was 25% of the job. tonight another 25% of the job. david: let's talk a couple superstars who everybody was focused on going into the series. aaron judge for the yankees, both guys didn't think he would come back to play after that injury over the weekend with his shoulder but he's not at 100%. looks like he's nursing his arm as he goes around the bases. it was an rbi last night but he's not up to his potential. at least with the judge could it change the mentality? is it too late to change his fly for this series? >> it's never too late, you're one swing away and one thing i said nothing personal this morning as i would have walked
12:37 pm
aaron judge in the eighth-inning, sounds crazy to do but why enable him to feel good about himself, sometimes it is one at bat that can change the trajectory of the way you see the ball and hit the ball, the way the team plays and can win. i look for aaron judge, it was a huge at bat, it could turn into the most meaningful one of the entire postseason. david: that 1-hit might turn his psychology around? >> it's the most amazing thing when you are baseball player. what makes you slump? i'm not seeing the ball correctly. i'm not feeling as good as i normally feel when i am hitting well and what changes it? sometimes it is something as little as i hit by pitch.
12:38 pm
sometimes something the just get to your brain and your eye working together with your hands and magic happens, looks like the old judge of the rest of the season. david: having been in the owner's position at one point, i am wondering about the mlb decision in 2021 where they boycotted the game in atlanta, and misinformation about of voting law turned out to be complete garbage, this thing that was said about that voting law because they had the midterm elections, that are favorable to voters. do you think this woke mentality that the mlb had for a while that caused that erroneous decision to be made is changing? do they realize if you go woke you go broke?
12:39 pm
>> as president of a team for 18 years let me tell you the commissioner is in a position where it's not just him in dealing with the other 30 owners. he also has to deal with the players and the players union. at that time there was a lot going on between the union and the commissioner's office and even if there was a sniff that any players would not want to be in atlanta that was a fight the commissioner didn't want to have at that moment. any decision that's made regarding on field, we need to talk to the players. david: it was a terrible mistake was all that woke information was garbage and they made a bad decision but hopefully they learned from that. don't be a stranger. coming up, our airlines are required to issue refunds for canceled flights. madison alworth will give us a live report after the break. ♪

12:45 pm
>> reporter: is good news for flyers, no more headaches trying to get your money back if your flight is delayed so this went into effect october 28th and it now streamlines what a significant delay is. airlines got to such their own definitions for whether you had a significant delay and they could make the process of getting a refund really tough. i'm sure many of us have spent hours working through things online but we have a new rule, things you need to know. when it comes to this new rule passengers get a refund for cancellation or significant delay. a delay for thomistic flight of 3 hours or 6 hours for an international flight and refunds are automatic. customers do not need to request them which is huge. it should just happen. it may go back to the original form of payment. if you use your credit card you
12:46 pm
will get that money, that cashback, if you used miles you will get those miles back. the european union has similar rules. if your flight is delayed by three hours you also get some amount of compensation but double down on this, this is huge, this rest that if this us rule means you automatically get your refund. shouldn't need to ask for it. that is big and refunds come quickly. david: so they say. sounds like good news for flyers. >> reporter: i have flown more than i would admit and have been with politics, this seems like a big improvement. david: on the automobile front, volkswagen announcing plans to shut three in germany and thousands of jobs, cutting wages as they electric vehicle agenda continues to go in reverse. daniel turner joins me now.
12:47 pm
wall street journal had an editorial of what's going on with vws saying this is happening because politicians are forcing the companies to sell cars that consumers don't want. isn't that what is happening here? >> a great morning for america what is to come. volkswagen never closed the plant in its 90 year history. this is monumental, germany is the largest economy in europe, we can expect the same, we've seen evidence of this, another loss this quarter, 1.2 billion, stellantis which is a subsidiary of fiat chrysler closed the plant in michigan, brought thousands of jobs to relocate to mexico. we have a matings of this ev disaster because of the
12:48 pm
biden/iris administration forcing this product. david: we should be specific, the eu has a specific mandate. by 2035, 11 years from now, they hope to be all electric, off of gas cars by than. how in hell, if what consumers are doing over there are updating their car, they don't want to go electric, they are not going to make that deadline, are they? >> they are not and we have a similar mandate in america, the biden/harris executive order which mandates that half of all cars by 2030 have to be electric, half of all cars have to be electric. if your car dealer how the mandate that? do you get find if i sell four combustion engines? can't sell a fifth until i sold four evs, this mandate is on the books. i'm sure the trump administration will rescind it but if kamala wins next week, that guarantee that she will
12:49 pm
