let's hope we turn that around. >> molly: absolutely. people watching that. jonathan, great to see you. >> jon: great to have you here. >> molly: back tomorrow. >> jon: thanks for joining us. "outnumbered" starts right now. >> fox news alert. claims from the kremlin that president trump invited vladimir putin to a summit at the white house. russia's state news agency is reporting that the invitation was made during the march 20th phone call. it comes amid criticism that the president isn't being tough enough on putin and a special counsel robert mueller's probe into russian election meddling is still ongoing. this is "outnumbered." kennedy is here. and trish regan is here. republican strategist and fox news contributor, meesa booth and joining us on the couch, journalist, geraldo rivera.

he's the author of a new book, "the geraldo show, the memoirs." and you're outnumbered. i think we are. >> you're a veteran, you're old and lame. >> your book is so juicy. i thought you brought a pack of peaches. i saw some in the back. >> there are some peaches here. >> careful. >> i'm old and lame. i can say things like that. >> goodness. let's move on before we get in trouble. the kremlin is claiming president trump invited vladimir putin to a summit at the white house. that's according to russia's state news agency. it's reporting that president trump made the invitation when they speak on the phone last month. no date for this morning was discussed. this of course coming as robert mueller's probe is ongoing and after the expulsions.

in spite of actions and other sanctions, president trump has been criticized for not being tough enough on putin. here's senator lindsey graham on "fox news sunday." >> i think the problem is that russia is running wild. the president has a hard time pushing back at putin directly. >> white house press secretary, sarah sanders saying in a statement as the president confirmed on march 20th, hours after his last call with president putin, the two had discussed a bilateral meeting at a number of venues including white house. we have nothing further to add at this time. geraldo, what are your thoughts? >> putin is a thug, a cream, a sore on the body of the world. >> what do you really think? >> it's hope it's true that the president has had the courage to

invite putin despite all the push back, all the mueller stuff, the fact that he can't have russian dress on his salad now because of the collusion. the president told me months ago, wouldn't the world be a better place if the united states and the russian had open honest discussions and relations? i agree with the president. i hope this is true. i hope they have a meeting. it can't hurt. >> lisa, can they have open honest conversations? if you listen to ambassador john bolton, russian is a bad actor. they're almost always lying. how do you teal with someone like that? >> russia is a bad actor. as long as the president is clear-eyed and what putin is and who he represents and what he represents. with the russia thing, it depends how you want to view it. if you want to focus on the commentary. focus on the tweets. you have one narrative on

russian. if you want to focus on the actions, it's a different thing. we're coming off the biggest purge of russian diplomats with the trump administration. you can look at lethal arms sales to the ukraine. a lot list of actions the trump administration has taken against russia. you go back to the obama administration, he was weak. he was weak in his actions. he tried to be tough in his rhetoric. everybody knew it was a juke. president trump is different in the sense that he may be a little weak on the rhetoric but his actions are tough. other leaders now he will be tough and follow-through on it. >> i'd like to see more consistency with the north korean policy and the russian policy. the north korean policy is working. he's been very unpredictable and aggressive. he needs to do the same thing with russian. i'd like to see more unpredictability and less of a

conciliatory tone with moscow. if you watch the documentary ickaris, you can see how as a country, as a government they want to win at all costs. you can take doping as a metaphor for what is happening with their foreign policy. they're doing the same thing. they bad mouth their enemies, rationalize everything. i don't want to see the president as soon as believing it. so therefore, i would like to see what is happening in north korea applied to russia. i think we would have better results. by the way, russia has acted like a child and should be treated like a child. >> they're different actors in the sense that north korea is almost irrational. vladimir putin plays a very long and thoughtful game. so i don't know that the same approach would work. your thoughts. >> it's an interesting point, melissa. it's not really going to get him anything sitting down with putin. it's a nice gesture. he should have the dialogue. it's not as though it's going to

change anything. but hey, if he's going to sit down with kim jong-un, he might as well sit down with vladimir putin. vladimir putin is smart but so is our president. i don't think either one will feel the charm offensive in such a way that either is seduced by the other. so i don't know if it gets you anywhere. >> can i add something to that? think i you're absolutely right. the photo ops do nothing. they don't achieve anything. what we have seen with the president and the congressional leaders on capitol hill, both parties when he has the open meetings, not only are they entertaining, you can hold someone's feet to the fire because you put it on record in put with transparency. transparency. how much would you love to see one of those meetings between putin and trump where it's not just a photo op. >> that would be interesting. another fox news alert for you. president trump tweeting again about immigration saying daca is dead. he's blaming democrats and

calling on nuclear to get a wall done. it's the obama era program that products undocumented immigrants that came here as kids. the president decided to end it march 5. but federal court rulings have allowed the program the remain in place while the legal battles play out. the president tweeting, daca is dead because the democrats didn't care to act. now everyone wants to get on to the daca bandwagon. no longer works. must build wall and security our borders with proper legislation. democrats wants no borders hence drugs and crimes. he's referenced a caravan of people from honduras heading through mexico seeking asylum. the president tweeting mexico has the absolute power not to let these large caravans of people enter their country. they must stop them at their northern border, which they can do because their border laws

work, not allow them to pass into tour country which has no effective border laws. congress must pass border legislation, use nuclear option if necessary to stop the inflow of drugs and people. board agents and ice are great but the weak dem law dosn't allow them to do their job. act now or our country will be stolen. and the president is threatening to exit nafta if the flow of people and drugs through the country don't stop. he shared some of his thoughts yesterday before church. >> mexico has to help us at the border. if they're not going to help us at the border, it's a very sad thing between two countries. mexico has to help us at the border. a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of daca. we're going to have to see. they had a great chance. the democrats blew it.

mexico has to help us at the border. they flow through mexico, they send them to the united states. can't happen that way anymore. thank you. >> and john garimendi reacting this morning to the president's tweets. >> give me a break. give me a break. what is this guy doing? what did the president do? he promised during his campaign two things. one, he would terminate daca. he created this problem all by himself. we offered a pile of money for the border wall. he turned it down. >> there you go. geraldo? >> i'm filled with sadness of the scene of a thousand people of honduras making their way through mexico regardless of mexico's blame or complicity. those 1,000 people are leaving a country that is fraught with

violence, kidnappings, with the drug lords have supplanted the local government. it's a horrible situation. jump to the reality. there's 7 billion people on the planet. they all want to live in the united states virtually. you have to have borders. you have to have some kind of immigration control. i get that. the dreamers though and the wall i think should be considered as one issue. why? because i know there's a deal there. i know that the democrats will go for $25 billion to build the southern border wall and i know the president of the united states was elected on that issue and that issue will still be the paramount issue in the november elections. i believe the president has promised not 800,000 but 1.6 million dreamers in an expanded class a path to citizenship. if you combine these two things, strip away everything else, i'll give you the $25 billion for the

wall, you give me the dreamers, there is a conciliation compromise hurts both sides. both sides feel that they have been imposed upon by a compromise. but if that wall hurts a lot of people. i say build the dam walls. give the $25 billion. give the kids some stability. give them some peace of mind. the president knows that the thousand people in the caravan and anyone coming after 2012 has no right to daca. it's a nonissue. it was a factual incorrect statement, but daca, the wall, compromise, let's get this thing done. >> lisa, you think both sides would go for the deal if you stripped away everything else? >> president laid out a deal that was a compromise. both sides were mad over the proposal that he laid out, which should show you it's something down the middle. but to late this as the president's feed is wrong. president obama created the program, was not constitutional.

his own attorneys at the justice department said they were concerned about it being constitutional. congress has been trying to get something done on dreamers for something like 16 years now and has failed. there's four different proposals in the senate voted down needing bipartisan proposal, republican proposals that did not pass. so this is a much deeper issue. to lay it at the president's feet is wrong. >> what about ending chain migration or the lottery system? those are what they got bogged down in in the past. geraldo, i hear you. i think there's a deal there but has to include the other issues. you want to end the lottery system and chain migration and say from here on out, we're going to be aggressive who we want in the country. we want you to prove you're needed in this country before coming in. >> if you broaden it to beyond the simple parameters, chain

migration, the lottery visa and all that stuff, i think you start to bog it down and you get back to what lisa was saying about we had this proposal, that proposal. just keep it simple. you can make a deal right now. wall, daca, future. >> kennedy, does everyone win or does everyone lose if we do that deal? >> i don't think everyone loses. it's an emotional issue, there has to be a level of compromise. geraldo is right. you have to keep it simple if you're not going to keep it rationale. both sides are incapable of a rationale discussion right now. immigrants are not a class to be demonized and written off as a whole. the president is also trying to compromise here unlike a traditional republicans and democrats have to reach out and both sides have to stop acting like they're so far apart. it's very straightforward.

democrats would be foolish to turn it down. now so it's emotionalized, it's only about the mid-terms. >> i agree with that. >> the u.s. kicking off joint military exercises with north korea. one four-star general says the president's maximum pressure campaign is driving diplomacy with the rogue nation. others think kim jong-un may have something else in mind. we're watching the dow. look at that. taking quite a dip after china hitting back at the president's tariffs on steel and aluminum impor imports. we'll see if a trade war is on or if the president's moves will protect american workers. that's next. okay folks!

a big walk-out. we'll keep an eye on it. >> they go to college, they have college loans and paid $25,000 a year. no wonder they have complaints. >> they get more than that. >> a lot of teachers get very little money for college-educated people. >> right now, the united states and south korea kicking off their military exercises ahead of a face-to-face meeting between president trump and kim jong-un. the north vowing not to protest the drills as part of its agreement to meet with president trump. general jack keane praising the commander-in-chief for progress with pyongyang. >> the speed at this this diplomacy has removed is nothing is that right of remarkable and it's due to one thing. the trump administration's maximum pressure campaign and also putting the military option back on the table. i'm hopeful this is real on the part of the north koreans and

the chinese and is not just a delaying tactic to advance their technology, which is what they've always done. >> gop senator lindsey graham cease he believes john bolton has a different point of view. >> this is why i like john bolton as national security adviser. he's a very healthy skepticism of north korea. he thinks they're buying time. they're nine months away to having a nuclear missile that can hit america. he sees this as buying time. i'd caught them off a of the there path there. make sure the negotiations were focused and get quick acc. >> at least we're negotiating. does the president deserve credit for that? is it a good thing that you have someone in the national security adviser roll that is more hawkish like john bolton? >> i think that it's impossible not to give the president props

for this break through. it is a break-through. more over, everybody can get this. the canary in the coal mine is kim's response to the military exercises that he opposed if they had the exercises. if you'll recall, firing on some south korean islands and doing other aggressive things to complain about the south korean u.s. military exercises. so if kim stays silent on that, it's a good indicator that there will be meaningful negotiations. do you truth him, do you you think he's going to make the bomb or an exotic weapon, i don't know. if the past is an indicator, he will be sneaking around. you never know. could be something great happening here and the president deserves credit. >> so trish, you're nodding here. now kim jong-un is taking a little bit more of a visual

role. normally they call it the hermit kingdom because he keeps to himself. he went to south korea, saw -- saw a k-pop band. a performance in north korea. he took pictures with them. >> he liked it. >> he just visited china. do you think that by appealing to his ego, the international community will get him to join the world stage and denuclearize? >> possibly. i think you're on something with appealing to the ego here. he wants to be recognized as a player on the international world stage. he needs nuclear weapons to do that. part of his problem is, he's thinking gosh, if i lose these things, am i no better off than qaddafi when it comes to my potential fate? in other words, if you look historically at others that have engaged in this kind of behavior and lost to their weapons, it hasn't always been the great outcome. that said, there's a window here.

i hope to god there's a window here. i don't think our president is naive about this. ambassador bolton has to scare kim jong-un about this. ambassador bolton is very aggressive on this front. >> you think? >> he and i have discussed this at length before. i'm like let's use our economic power. let's have china put pressure on north korea economically. ambassador bolton wants ships. it has to be scary for them. perhaps that's what's going on. he can have a bigger presence on the world stage and to what is right. >> the key difference between where we are now and where we were under president obama is kim jong-un doesn't know what president trump is capable of. president trump is demonstrating that in his rhetoric with fire and fury. and also in his actions. remember what he did when he took office? it was the 59 tomahawk and

dropping the mother of all bombs. he said i'm not missing around and there's a different administration around than president obama. we know it's had effect. there's reports that kim jong-un reached out to folks trying to figure out who is this guy, what is he capable of. what does this mean and what do the negotiations do, they bear fruit or not? yes don't know. >> we haven't gotten there but at least we're getting there there. >> in the end, how do you verify that anything is taking place? that they talk about denuclearize something we got hosed in the iran deal. president obama promised inspections. that was not the truth. >> we've been hosed with north korea. they promised the exact same thing. when we send atomic inspectors into the country, it's a different game. >> very good. >> no more getting hosed. >> there's no hose race.

now china hitting back against the trump administration. slapping tariffs on more than 100 u.s. imports on the steel and aluminum tariffs. are we seeing a drop in the dow fairly early on because of that? could the moves by the world leaders lead to a trade war or does the president's move help protect american workers? we'll debate and discuss. plus, president trump taking on jerry brown. it's the latest salvo in the dig battle over california's law protecting illegal immigrants. who will prevail in the sanctuary show down? we'll get to it. but if that's n, we offer innovative investing tools to prepare you for the future. looks like you hooked it. and if that's not enough, we'll help your kid prepare for the future. don't hook it kid. and if that's still not enough, we'll help your kid's kid prepare for the future. looks like he hooked it. we'll do anything... takes after his grandad.

>> a fox news alert. the dow taking a hit today. one of the drivers of that is china hitting back at president trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum. the company slapping $3 billion of surcharges on park, wine and scrap metal.

in an escalated dispute over trade, china's finance minister saying the u.s. tariffs violated the rules of the world trade organizations and don't provide with the security exceptions provision, which constituted safeguard measures. this measure caused serious damage to our interests. china's advocacy and support for the multilateral trading system, concessions to the united states are legitimate measures taken by china. the white house firing back saying the president is done with america getting the raw end of the deal. sarah sanders. >> the president knows that we're billions of dollars in a trade deficit with china. he's tired of us being taken advantage of. they have taken our intellectual property. we want to work with them to make sure we're getting a good deal and not taken advantage of anymore. that's exactly what people elected donald trump to come to washington and do.

we've been doing the traditional way for a long time. the only thing that that has done is created a bigger trade deficit. >> geraldo, the markets down big. i talked to some experts that say their response is muted compared to what they thought they would do. that shows that most sides would do a deal. >> i thought it was chump change. the $600 billion in trades, i don't know why the market is reacting so emotionally. part of the problem, i was talking at a commercial break, john peters, worried about the president being too tempestuous, too -- his ad libs not being structured enough. that maybe we should have warned china more. maybe we could have taken a step before we hit amazon so hard. you know, i worry that emotions affect real lives. when you have a 401(k) and the market is down, when i see the dow down triple digits like

this -- >> that's for people retiring today. it's up, the market is up and down. it's over the long-term. kennedy what do you think? >> long-term the stock market is very solid. i think what the market is doing, it's more reaction ordinary versus emotional. and i think there's worry that both the axios piece about amazon and when you have antitrust thrown around, these big organizations, how that could affect investors in addition to a potential trade war. those are two things that could do undo all the gains gotten from tax legislation that was passed and signed. the market loved that. they loved the idea of companies coming back to the united states, seeing a lower corporate tax return. the tax rate. and individuals also seeing more in their paychecks which boosts consumer confidence. all of that adds to a healthy

economy. >> but trish, it's the and of the deal. they're negotiating about a big government contract, cloud computing. all kinds of things going on behind the scenes between the government and am on this. he throw as molotov cocktail in the open because someone is in a room andness a bad guy. what do you think? >> you're right. you get leverage this way. china, 65% tariff on white and rice imports. 0% is what we change. 25% on motor vehicle imports. it goes on and on. 25% on sugar imports. we charge nothing. in other words, we have gotten the raw end of this deal. we have. it's time to renegotiate. we should be renegotiating it. if it takes throwing around the idea of a few tariffs that will cost them more money than they'll cost us, then make it

works. maybe it is indeed the art of a deal. >> it works if in the end we settle at a lower tariff rate. if the end we settle higher tariffs, all consumers pay more. >> that's the gamble. trade is a key issue for president trump to winning the rest belt. that's important to keep in mind. this is the art of the deal. president trump is laying out the markers ontariffs to bring mexico, canada to the table, china to the table, this response for them is muted. so hopefully it's a good sign that they're willing to talk and negotiate. you're right. it's a gamble. we don't know where this is going to turn. we don't know what will happen to the stock market. >> the stock market needs to get over themselves and get over this. here's the reality. we either deal with it now or our kids will be. they're not going to have the same leridge. china will be so muff more powerful economically and in terms of its military. we face this reality --

>> and they own a lot of our debt. we talk about future generations. we have to cut spending in this country. the president and congress have shown an inability to do that. that's worrisome. >> bernie sanders like the tariffs. >> that's problematic sign there. >> and we hold some cards there. they need to get paid back. >> anyway, we don't want to default. >> no. >> i'm not going to argue with this. >> i'm not going to argue with the business folks on the couch. >> a new reaction amid -- we'll switch here. a growing show down over california's sanctuary state law. the vice chair of the orange county board of supervisors speaking out to join the trump's lawsuit against the state. >> we're put in a position where our sheriff deputies are precluded from talking to federal authorities if they know the authorities want to pick someone up because the person is here illegally, is charged with

a crime and our people can't even talk to the federal government unless there's exceptions like a prior convicted felon. we've had 244 people last week released that we could not stop and our people could not tell ice officials that we believe ice would have wanted to speak with and likely wanted to do something about. >> it all comes as the president takes aim at governor jerry brown. he did so over the weekend for pardoning some criminals slated for deportation. here he is saying governor jerry moonbeam brown pardoned five illegal aliens who crimes included one kidnapping and robbery. two, badly beating wife and threatening a crime with intent to terrorize. three, dealing drugs. is this really what the great people of california want? governor brown has issued more pardons than the last five california governors combined.

the governor's office using the president's own words to defend the pardons tweeting this month we celebrate those that have exited the prison system and successfully reentered society. we emphasize our belief in the second chances for who are able -- those able to turn their lives aaround. geraldo, i keep looking at this issue. i don't understand how this even should be an issue. if we're a country, this is one where federal law and i'm all the about state law and i like states to have rights but this is one where this seems the federal law should totally trump, no pun intended, what is going on in the states? you have to control who is in your town country. >> i agree every country needs borders as we started the program saying. but i've known moonbeam brown

since's known trump since he was in the mansion in sacramento with linda rosset. he would be the most potent democratic candidate against president trump. he makes sense on the liberal and progressive size. the whole idea of sanctuary, you mentioned federal law should trump state law in terms of immigration. this issue has to be decided by the supreme court of the united states. they have to lay out what the federal government's responsibility is, what if state government's responsibility is. it has to be one so size fits all. there's people that hold impassioned views on both sides. >> for governor brown, this may help him in a state where california where california is ground zero for the resistance and illegal immigration is where they're staking their ground. >> but i don't think it helps

them nationally. president trump makes immigration a larger national issue, which he is heading into 2018. i don't think it helps him in red states. missouri, north dakota, ohio. these individuals in the state went trump heavy and they want to see the policies that president trump talked about on the campaign trail enacted. so i don't think it necessarily helps democrats in the broader scheme of things. in california, it's more irrelevant. >> kennedy? >> it's interesting taking the campaign promises that you've made on the trail and enacting them on your president. we have never seen that. look at obama. i mean, it's like he laid out love him or hate him, he laid out exactly what he wanted to do and he's trying to figure out a way. sometimes it's impulsively. sometimes it's counter productive when you talk about twitter and social media. but this is what he said he was going to do.

president obama said he was going to close guantanamo bay. he rain as a civil libertarian. there's a massive disconnect between the states and the federal government. i think it's not just about the supreme court. congress has to take a stand and say we are the ones that craft laws. this is our immigration policy. they absolutely have to do it. it's morally incumbent -- >> congress is the most dysfunctional body on earth. >> it gets back to politics. >> we can't have open borders. it doesn't work. we will go bankrupt. >> and the issue of the mid-terms. >> there might be a lot of democrats that don't win. i don't know. >> there might be. >> president trump appears to have decided that he's going to be one of the ones calling his own shots in the white house for now.

new reports says he's filling his staff with loyalists that embrace his style in getting more things done. is it a strategy or could it backfire? we'll debate it after this. i'm on the move all day long.

"the washington post" reporting the commander-in-chief is returning to his personal style, ditching white house stabilizers that are seeking to restrain him for figures to embrace his nature. sarah sanders saying "the president is in an action mood and doesn't want to slow roll things from trade to the border to staffing changes. he wants to make things that he's been discussing for a while happen. he's tired of the wait game." so geraldo, you said that president trump is better off going alone. why? >> i agree. i agree with myself. during the steve bannon days, the west week is a nest of

vipers and rats and snakes. he talks to putin and congratulates him. it gets leaked to the post in 15 minutes. he's impetuous in his speech. if you look what he's done so far, it's been a traditional conservative approach to life. everything he says or does is construed in the most evil way possible. i say good on him. nixon opened china. it wasn't jimmy carter. >> aren't there limitations? like infrastructure, doesn't he need congress? >> yeah. that's one of the things we criticized president obama for. his overuse of executive action. you do need congress. they don't to much. they're terrified. legislating through fear is no way to govern. it's a difficult role, but that is why people want to be president. it's also the most powerful

position in the country. there's not enough time in the day to do everything by yourself. >> one quote that i heard, he was tired of people telling him why he wanted couldn't be done and the wrong thing to want. he's like forget it. if you like at the people he's hired, these are people that it's not a hard turn to the right. it's not hard right. it's hardcore. there's people that believe very deeply in their own opinions and what their research and what they've done and they feel confident about the path forward. they're not yes men. they're going to tell him what they believe but have a lot of energy and action oriented. that's what he is missing. he hates the inaction. >> so typical of d.c. and melissa and i know larry well. he doesn't like tariffs. he will make that very clear. but again, larry is his own guy. the president is his own guy. i think part of what he would like to see is perhaps a little

more loyalty from the team around him. right, geraldo? >> amen. >> if you have a phone call with putin and 15 minutes later "the washington post" is writing about it, maybe you don't want everybody knowing or maybe you need to change your office. >> and you have the situation that everybody is making a big foss over the fuss that he golfed with sean hannity. he had dinner with me last month. i'm not a conservative of any stripe. so he listens to different points of view. he gathers the data and makes his own call. >> you worrisome of these folks that need confirmation a backlog here. look at cia director, secretary of state, v.a. secretary. does any of this lead to instability? >> you know, the president has expressed to me, how do you feel? you sit down and what you talk about today? monrovia. a three-page brief on monrovia. the president says you know, i get it. what is it in three sentences?

what's the issue? >> the dictator of the second party is doing a thing and screwing around with this. i got it. he doesn't have the contemplative nature of barack obama, but he has his own way of doing business and he's been successful. >> big news from the one lucky guy here, geraldo rivera, his new book hits shelves tomorrow. we'll get the inside scoop next. patrick woke up with back pain.
