2:00 pm
be reminded by what ronald reagan said after stocks tumbled in 1987. he argued that stocks go up and go down and really there's nothing more he could explain. he was optimistic about the fundamentals, the economy, the markets, america. he was right then and i suspect he will be proven right now. ♪ >> jesse: i'm jesse watters with jedediah bila, juan williams, dana perino and greg gutfeld. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five" ." it's the event everyone is talking about: kanye west's america first sit down with president trump at the white house. >> trying to scare me to not wear this hat. it gives me power, in a way. >> jesse: we will have more of kanye in the west wing ahead.
2:01 pm
first, democrats hillary clinton and eric holder under fire for the recent comments attacking republicans. >> you cannot be civil with the political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. >> michelle obama says when they go low, we go high. no, no. when they go low, we kick them. >> jesse: president trump's responding to holder. >> president trump: better be careful what he is wishing for, that i can tell you. he better be careful what he's wishing for. that's a disgusting statement for him to make. for him to make a statement like that is a very dangerous statement. you know, they talk about us. we are exactly opposite. >> jesse: congressman steve scalise, who was shot by a deranged left-wing gunman is calling out the left's mob mentality. "if they want change, they need to convince people with their ideas and actually win elections
2:02 pm
rather than call for violent harassment and mob rule." holder is predictably backtracking. tweeting "stop the outrage. i'm obviously not advocating violence. in fact when i was ag, violent crime in the u.s. was historically low. i am saying republicans undermining our democracy and democrats need to be tough, proud, and stand up for the values we believe in. the end." dana, one of the things that really works in politics is when you make your political opponents fight amongst each other. that's what's happening. you have michelle obama, hillary, eric holder all fighting amongst each other and that helps the right. >> dana: do know who would not have apologize? michael avenatti. i do think there's something about the wings, especially on the left wing right now, wanting a fighter. why would you apologize for that? you could say he got a laugh out of the crowd.
2:03 pm
president trump says lots of things to get a laugh from the crowd. the left says we can't believe he said that. he was terrible. now the right is saying that about eric holder. it's all about proportionality. >> jesse: i am going to use the fake outrage next time. >> dana: avenatti would not have apologize. >> jesse: it's funny, democrats debating on whether the take -- take the high road. >> greg: accusing an innocent man of gang rape is not exactly the high road. where does -- before i get into my serious -- i will say i believe what holder is saying because i believe in the principle that you don't take the worst meaning or worst intention of what someone is saying. i don't believe he was inciting violence. he was basically saying fight harder. having said that, accusations of incivility don't bug me. i think incivility is pretty good because it reduces the chance for violence.
2:04 pm
if you are uncivil with each other, it might mean you might not punch. the thing that bothers me is the incitement and enabling of a mob so when you have netflix employees for example stocking brian kilmeade in order for a show on netflix and then inciting the passengers on the subway to join in in this orgy of persecution. persecution is like a contagion. when you're in a mob, it is spread through repetition. it can happen very easily. he think we need to contrast words and deeds. what holder is saying is use words but you have to look at the deeds. people are comparing donald trump, his words, to left-wing deeds. i get it. trim can be rude in his jokes can be mean but there is no right wing antifa or occupy wall street, no scalise shooting more people right wing chasing people or right wing night flex
2:05 pm
-- netflix. >> jesse: i didn't think holder was literally talking about kicking republicans. i think most people sense that but greg's point, in the context of all the other deeds that have gone on in the last week, month, year where there's been violence and threats and things like that, it doesn't add anything to the conversation in a positive way. >> juan: i think it does. i think both dana and greg said to you, jesse, that would democrats want our people who will stand up and fight for the democratic brand. right now republicans control the white house, congress, and the supreme court and oftentimes they feel like, remember the usa today piece. that the president gets away with saying things are untrue and no one stands up and says this guy is misleading you, republicans. where did you go, republican party? i listen to you guys and i think wait a second. what kind of one-sided presentation is this?
2:06 pm
this guy was at rallies and he has to crowd yelling "lock her up." not about hillary. about dianne feinstein. >> greg: clever. >> juan: at the same time one holder says democrats need to stay stand up. then you say there's no shooting? steve scalise, that was an active horror. you have to admit they went into a pizza parlor in washington. >> dana: you have brought this up every time. the pizza parlor thing. can i say? >> juan: what about charlottesville? did they run over someone at charlottesville? >> dana: i think charlottesville -- >> greg: let me finish. when it comes to republicans can we have to be honest. it's a bug in the system. when it comes to the left, it's the system. you've had the weather underground, sla, black panthers, manson family, antifa. republicans have nothing like that. >> juan: you have white nationalists. >> greg: the opposite of white
2:07 pm
nationalists. [all speaking] >> jesse: jedediah, what do you think? >> jedidiah: you both gave holder the benefit of the doubt and that's great and i probably would too. but he wouldn't give you -- if one of you said that, forget it. i think this all started with the refusal to accept that trump had won. started with that and people on the left side you know what, this was not a proper election. they incited everybody to say that this election was not tangible and they should rally against it and it started with maxine waters. these are many leaders in the democratic party. people talk to me all the time. tea party rallies, the signs they saw at tea party rallies. i don't want to hear about signs and have signs of people at a rally, i've never found it offensive. i don't want to hear that compared to leaders in the democratic party, holder, hillary clinton who could have been president, saying outrageous things.
2:08 pm
good on michelle obama who came out and said this is not acceptable. i'm sure hillary clinton was not happy with her but i commend it it went something like this happens, it's important for people within the party itself to stand up to it. any democrat to stand up to this, i salute them as well. >> juan: i wish the republicans would stand up to some of the outrageous -- >> jedidiah: many republicans stand up to donald trump when he says something that's not appropriate. >> jesse: i want to differentiate between when we are talking about. i don't want to litigate local violence but greg was picking up a lot of examples of i was yesterday, left-wing attacks on republican officials, cabinet members, trump family members, elected officials. that has been violence perpetrated by the right on the left in the streets, and that's awful and random. but when you are going after political leadership in a democracy that takes it to a higher level and i think that's the difference.
2:09 pm
>> juan: going after political leadership? >> jesse: ricin, threats against family members, chasing them around in the streets. that's an attack on political leadership and not something -- driving into a car or shooting up a random pizza place. i'm not excusing it. i'm saying it's different categorically. >> juan: it's different if someone stands up and says i disagree with you. i think mitch mcconnell, what you did, i'm in this airport and i'm not going to let you hear it. >> jedidiah: harassing somebody out of a restaurant? >> jesse: the maxine waters approach. >> juan: you are so dramatic. she said it's okay to stand up. >> jesse: coming up, we'll democrats smears against kavanaugh's think them in the midterms? trump's latest next.

♪ >> dana: the kavanaugh confirmation battle has become a midterm flash point, firing up conservatives, giving republicans a new issue to
2:14 pm
attack democrats. >> president trump: so many people saying i wish you were running. i would be out there voting. i'm not going to do it now because you're not running. i said do me a favor. go out and vote. historically whoever wins the presidency, as you know better than anybody, they don't do well in midterms. i think this is different. the economy is the best it's ever been ever plus i really think justice kavanaugh, the way he was treated so horribly. he was a fine man. what they did to him that his family come of the democrats come i don't think people are going to forget that so quickly. i think the republicans are very energized. much more so now than two or three weeks ago. >> dana: greg, some people suggest that the brett bounce is really just a sugar high. but you know a lot about nutrition. do you think it's more like a protein meal? >> greg: i think it's an analogy. i felt like the kavanaugh bounce
2:15 pm
was more like the charge on your smartphone. every day, if you don't plug it in, you lose energy. the goal of the republicans is to keep that phone charged. the only way you're going to keep the phone charged is with anger which is what the democrats are doing the same thing. they are relying on anger but the problem with the democrats, it's been the same anger for two years. the phone is already charged. i don't know if you can add more charged that phone. the republicans, they are charged but every day it's going to get a little bit less. the trump rallies are a way to plug that phone back in and get that charge backup. i am now exhausted that analogy. >> dana: pretty good. jedediah, is it anger or their eyes have been opened? >> jedidiah: i think it's a little bit of both. i think it's the moderate republicans that are actually enraged right now because some of those people that might've been inclined to stay home or weren't going, now we are seeing democrats in saying this is beyond the pale. this is people who don't play
2:16 pm
fair and the vast majority of the country does believe in presumption of innocence. there's so many people in the country, regardless of party lines, they are saying that the way kavanaugh was treated not just by democrats but by the media, it was horrific. maybe people who don't buy into the philosophy of media, conservatives, they are not part of that conservative hard-core base. they are sitting back and saying maybe they do have a point because they watch how this guy was painted and what he was put through. they were appalled. people may not of been pushed to vote are saying these democrats really went off the rails and i have to get out there because i'm fighting for basic tenets of the republic. >> dana: juan, senate democrats running in red states already had tough racism now looks like republicans are pulling ahead in nevada and certainly in tennessee. >> juan: right. the race in tennessee, down bigger than he ever was to marsha blackburn.
2:17 pm
in some states, especially states that were purple to read because it's energized the republican votes there. if you contrast that with what's going on on the house level, may have had a reaction in terms of women, suburban white women in particular. this emphasis from republicans and the president on kavanaugh's because guess what, they haven't found something that's worked with voters for the midterms. clearly they had hoped the tax cuts would work but it didn't. i hope the economy, the president referencing on "fox & friends" today, again, most americans don't think that the economy is a topic to vote on. the president had an op-ed in "usa today" that was on health care. again, that's the number one topic in these midterms. he is trying to position himself as not undercutting obamacare or medicare but again, he is scaring people. not sure he's telling the truth. >> dana: is it just about brett kavanaugh and the supreme court or is republicans
2:18 pm
deciding we've got to get behind, unite and get behind president trump or else the left is going to do to us but they did to brett kavanaugh. >> jesse: there is a great piece in "the federalist" today which i was reading earlier. how kavanaugh's confirmation finally united the right under trump by brad todd. twenty-first names. howard do you feel about that? >> greg: i am against it. >> jesse: it goes to what jedediah was saying, maybe some of these moderate republicans have coalesced behind trump and to juan's point, i don't think the economy or the tax cuts wasn't working and they were flailing around looking for other things, i think you build on success and the kavanaugh confirmation was another successful point but the democrats can't get out of their own way. they stepped into a hornets nest and instead of running away, they are lingering around and keep getting stung and they're talking about the definition of a mob in impeachment and they can let the kavanaugh thing go when they should pay that and
2:19 pm
talk about health care or college costs are mueller or whatever they need to do. >> jedidiah: don't help them out. >> jesse: i think the point is it wasn't just the kavanaugh confirmation that fired up the right. i think it was watching hysterical, desperate behavior of some of these left-wing activists. their antics turn people off and it showed average voters, give them a window into the soul of the democratic party. this is how crazy these people are. if you think about it. this crazy now, imagine if they don't retake the house. i am buying a bunker. >> jesse: i think i have to go to eight trump rally to see. >> dana: they can't blame the electoral college for that. i think they will blame gerrymandering. >> greg: i hate that guy. >> dana: that really was a guy guy. first, melania trump response to social media attacks. that's ahead on "the five" ."

and i'm still going for my best even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin, i'm up for that. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. so what's next? seeing these guys. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis, the number one cardiologist-prescribed blood thinner. ask your doctor if eliquis is what's next for you.

♪ >> juan: first lady melania trump with some stunning revelations about the president's inner circle at the white house. >> he's been in office almost two years. has he had people you didn't trust working for him? >> yes. >> did you let him know? >> i let him know. some people, they don't work there anymore. >> do you think there's still people there that he can't trust? >> yes. >> juan: misses trump pushing back against social media attacks that she said inspired her to launch her "be best" campaign. >> i could say i'm the most bullied person in the world. one of them. if you really see what people are saying about me.
2:25 pm
my be best initiative is focusing on social media and online behavior. >> juan: jedediah. she has the most bullied person in the world? >> jedidiah: she does get bullied a lot. i've seen her bullied for her accent. they look at whether she is wearing appropriate outfit. she just got bullied for that hat she had on. before that it was the jacket. i think it's fair. i think every first lady, to be fair, gets bullied to a certain degree. michelle obama certainly took a lot of heat as well. why is it controversial for her to say that? if michelle obama set i get bullied by folks on the right, people would say high. probably true. because she said, people all over twitter are critiquing her. she takes a lot of heat. >> juan: i think she takes criticism. i think that's different than being bullied. >> dana: her campaign to focus on social media bullying, if you're attacked on social media, you think you are the most bullied person in the world. it doesn't matter if it's ten

people. it's all perception. that's why she tried to encourage everybody to be nice. one thing about this, maybe tomorrow night on "20/20", we will see something different. she went to africa. she was representing the united states. she was saying we care about you and the conditions. she met with children and took books and saw the elephants which are endangered. she did a lot of things rather than just having to worry about who is in the west wing. maybe they asked her about it. we will see tomorrow night. >> juan: she also said she supports women being heard. she would prefer if they had evidence but she wants the idea. this fits with the fact that i think it's the plurality of americans believe professor for ford. but what do you think? >> jesse: i wouldn't take what you said to be what she said. she has a flair for the dramatic, like her husband. she goes over there was some really dashing outfits and then does this network interview and stokes palace intrigue and says she's the one that's being bullied and flips the whole script on the media. i agree with jedediah.
2:27 pm
from the shoes and the jacket and remember when she was recovering from surgery and they were stoking all these rumors about something scandalous going on. for probably the most beautiful and glamorous and exotic first lady america has ever had, she does not get treated the way other first ladies have. she doesn't get glossy magazine spreads. she doesn't get these kind of beautiful puff piece interviews the way hillary did or michelle obama. she showed she still has juice in the white house. there was that moment, you tell your husband about these people who are backstabbing. what happens. they are not there anymore. she does have influence and i think she wilted responsibly. >> juan: greg, to pick up from our friends here, there's a lot of talk about how she was dressed in africa, specifically the pith helmet that some people say reminded them of colonial days in africa. and a contrast to "i don't care"
2:28 pm
the stuff on the back of the jacket. some people say fashion does send a message. is that fair? >> greg: we are a fairly superficial people. if you ask any journalist who is involved in the entertainment world, they would much rather write about her hat than any kind of issues. it is an easy hook. i think, i don't think anybody has taken this kind of heat. i would disagree. i don't think michelle obama got a smidgen of the kind of abuse she gets and i think her predicament has made or isolated. she is one-of-a-kind. she wasn't born here. she came here. i've said this before. if my spouse became president of ukraine and i moved to the ukraine as the first man, i don't think i could handle the situation with one iota of how she -- >> jesse: analyzing your shoes and jacket and outfit. >> greg: i would never leave

2:38 pm
special moment. he played a really important sound bite. kanye said because china has stolen all of our factory jobs from the inner cities and from the core of america, it's gotten to the point where young black americans are now taking risks and doing illegal things to feed their family because they don't have access to good jobs anymore and they are getting put in jail. if you can solve that problem and if you can get black america buy into the "america first" agenda, made in america, trade agenda, the energy agenda, it's going to have a huge impact on this country where you have people coming together of all stripes and fighting for a nationalistic, patriotic economic agenda for the country. the media is already framing it as negative, saying that it was an angry rant. when taylor swift when taylor swift katy perry, they do those things, they're called
2:39 pm
expressions, soulful expressions, passionate. you don't hear that. you have to keep in mind that the media is trying to trick your mind and i thought everybody needs to watch the raw footage. it was more than you played. it was eye-opening. >> greg: juan, there was a moment when i think you would have admired witches he went in there and he complemented donald trump and then he slippes important, that they had to stop stop and frisk in chicago because it's destructive. the look on trump's face was like, okay. you can laugh. you can love him or hate him but i believe he got a confession out of trump. >> juan: i was going to ask, what concession? do you think trump is going to back off of stop and frisk? >> greg: trump has gotten so much out of this. i think there's a genuine affection between these two men
2:40 pm
that he will probably get something out of it, in exchange for something else. >> juan: i didn't see any major concession on the table because i didn't see substance. instead, i see a celebrity. i don't understand -- i think the oval office should be treated with some respect and the idea that he goes in there and he's using such awful language, i don't think that's very cool. >> jesse: was bill clinton respectful of the office? >> juan: here's the thing about this guy. i don't understand why it is that, you know, people would think this is about the black community. to the contrary. this is trump i think speaking to his white backers and saying i'm not a racist. >> jedidiah: come on. >> juan: kanye west is here with me so -- all these things about me calling people dogs and coming from s-hole countries, don't worry about it.
2:41 pm
>> greg: if a white person is having a conversation with a black leader, your answer is to -- >> juan: this behavior by trump didn't start yesterday. he had black people coming in, like jim brown, steve harvey. and kanye west. at trump tower. what came out of it? zero. this is the point. >> greg: it's called progress. >> juan: progress in terms of trump saying forget all the things i've done. i have a black friend, kanye west. >> jedidiah: if kanye wanted to go to the white house and talked to trump, he would be labeled racist. if kanye wants to go to the white house and talk to trump, he's labeled racist. you have to give kanye credit. i don't always agree with him then sometimes i don't understand what he's saying but he goes in and speaks his mind
2:42 pm
and kanye west knows he's going to be abused by everybody in hollywood and everyone in his bubble, they're going to make fun of him and berate him and he doesn't care and frankly that is inspirational. we should be telling everybody if you have something to say, you want to talk to the president of the united states and have the opportunity, even if you don't agree and you can put policy on the table, stop and frisk or whatever. we are talking about stop and frisk. it's an accomplished -- accomplishment. >> juan: when you have this guy saying let's do away with the 13th amendment which ended slavery in this country, you think i think something is wrong. >> greg: there were seven substance on that. is he someone someone willing to sacrifice his cool credentials e he believes in it. in the message is not a single negative message. >> dana: when you are in a position where you have the freedoms and the financial security to be able to take a
2:43 pm
risk and do what you want, you can be a leader in a different way. i also think everyone needs to sleep on it. wake up in the morning and listen to other people. juan feels passionately and i'm sure a lot of people around the country do. then go back -- yesterday president trump was at the international association of chiefs of police in florida. he loves the police. he supports the police. he says the only administration that's behind you, that hyperbole but part of it is trusting the police to do something. kanye west says i don't like stop and frisk. maybe the president because he has the power of convening, bring people together. what's important is to be able to have two sides talk. stop and frisk isn't going to stop because police think it's effective. unless there's a situation where you go to court. >> greg: i mention three weeks ago that colin kaepernick should go to the white house and meet with trump, and that was the other thing the kanye west said. his goal is to bring kaepernick
2:44 pm
and trump together, convening. >> dana: this white house is very television savvy. sometimes they set up shots they do not work for them. this one is interesting. president trump is behind the desk. usually when he has a meeting with somebody in the oval office, he is with a world leader or someone, nikki haley, they were in the chairs. the president knew. he didn't elevate kanye west to that level. i'm going to sit behind the desk and were going to have a meeting at the shop, the way it's set up, the only people in the shot, you can see president trump a little bit. the profile of kanye west and all of the media. it was interesting to watch with the sound off, as i did, when i was getting hair and makeup don done. i thought it's the craziest thing i've ever seen, not in a bad way. it was different. we are in a time of extraordinary economic prosperity. you can solve problems like the ones they are talking about. you convene people to be able to
2:45 pm
