the real story here? some of the talking points from both sides, chief economist from the international trade commission peter morici, good morning. how to you view the state of the economy as it stands today? >> we are recovering from a pandemic that was created in china and foisted upon the world almost purposely, joe biden can blame the president for the present economic conditions, the unemployment that remains, either an act of ignorance or treason. jillian: 1.4 million jobs gained in august, unemployment at 8.4%, joe biden says the economic recovery we are seeing right now isn't working for everybody. listen to something he said on monday.

>> donald trump keeps talking about how great this economy is. how great the stock market is. hasn't been so great for the rest of us. millions of people out of work. evictions on the rise. 20 million people worrying whether they are going to lose their home. >> reporter: the biden campaign's angle is the economic recovery we are starting to see is only benefiting the wealthy among us. do you agree with that? >> i would like to know how he addresses people going back to work on ordinary incomes. they are not wealthy but more importantly let's look at the record of joe biden and barack obama. during their time blacks and minorities and low-income people didn't make much progress. inequality did not get better. in the last two years of the trump boom with growth policies their elected get better come incomes rising, the opportunities for less skilled workers to get trading, joe biden offering the same warmed over prescription, handcuffs on consumers, shackles on business, high taxes and regulation to keep people from creating jobs.

we didn't make much progress last time. don't know why we would expect better progress this time. i don't know he bothers to read the paper sitting in the basement of his home in wilmington, delaware. jillian: you talk about the tax hikes, what would happen if joe biden becomes president, raises taxes on wealthy people and corporations in the middle of a pandemic, a lot of these companies are suffering because of it? >> the biggest challenge is to convince companies the recovery has momentum, to invest, taxing them and further regulating them is not necessarily a prescription for encouraging people to invest. corporate income tax even after it was cut, only average in the world at best. they want to make america uncompetitive along with the high costs imposed by obamacare makes it difficult to create jobs. it is not a prescription for growth. i have a high priced education

they want economic conditions to be bad until the election, they think miraculously they can rescue the economy. joe biden not to try learning to read or at least using the reading skills he has because they indicate that kind of behavior can be terrible. if you look at the great depression we let things get out of hand and when we tried to rescue us with new deal policies it was too late and we are very close to the precipice. if we do not get more money into the hands of the unemployed and sustain them then we will have the evictions he talks about and i would say read the grapes of wrath if you want to see what will happen if you don't pass this bill. jillian: of i warning from you, donald trump would agree with, thank you for coming on this morning. todd: peter morici fired up on wednesday. 18 after the era, diners harassed by activists demand an apology is the president slams unruly protesters. police giving a little boy the vip treatment, acts of kindness

member of the norwegian parliament who says the president has done more to create peace between nations than other nominees. joining us live is black voices for trump 2020 cochair, before we get to other topics your reaction to this breaking news. >> it is appropriate for donald trump to be nominated for a nobel peace prize because he has been a leader in trying to have peace around the world. the most recent example is the peace deal between israel and the uae, the right thing to do because donald trump has shown himself to be a global leader trying to have peace not just in our country but abroad, it is the right thing to do. todd: trump the candidate told you what he wanted to do and by and large did a lot of it to the joy of the right, the chagrin of the left. what is on the president's to do list if he were to win a second term in 2020?

>> the campaign laid out the agenda for 2020 and the theme is biden for you because we need somebody at the white house that will continue to fight for us especially in 2020 and beyond, the president laid out a bold agenda starting with jobs talking about one of the things was creating 10 million new jobs in ten months, very important theme, he has been a small business champion on things related to deregulation, to eradicate covid-19 because we know this plague from china is something we have to get a hold of, the country can move forward, the economy can open and continue to usher in the great american comeback, talks about ending our reliance on china which is something important to the american people. there has been a lot of reason why given all the manufacturing things that happen in china, the medications but also drugs,

access to that. we cannot continue to have reliance on china, the president wants to get rid of that but when you look at issues of importance to the american people and where we are and what we need, he does that. todd: as donald trump and joe biden ramp up, they notice a surge of democrat requests for mail in ballots on battleground states popping up on screen, here are the numbers that bear that out. is the president making a strategic blunder in the way he talks about mail in voting that could cost him the election? >> the president is right to point out the problems with all mail in voting system, could lead to a lot of fraud and abuse, votes not being counted especially the black community so what the president is talking about his absentee ballots, points to florida, what we know is we have enthusiasm.

come hell or high water i guarantee republicans will wake up, independents wake up and democrats wake up on election day and vote for donald trump because they are enthusiastic, motivated by him and giving us something to vote for. the surge in mail in ballot requests is specific, why the trump campaign and rnc pushed for more debate and to move up the debate because we know people will go to the polls via absentee ballot and want them to have a full examination of both candidates. joe biden is not the person most americans, freethinking americans want for president. todd: an issue between now and november 3rd and beyond, got to get your thoughts on this. out sharpton, msnbc host recognizing a spike in violent crime in new york city is feeling more dangerous.

>> take all policeing off is something a lot a liberal may go for as they sit around the hamptons discussing this or that as an academic problem but people living on the ground need proper policing. todd: does the defund police movement have a chance if not even out sharpton is on their side? >> out sharpton is a joke, there were a lot a liberals coffee drinkers in harlem and i tell you where he is and out sharpton is political. he does not care about people and he knows the polls are showing the black community is rejecting defund the police so democrats and liberals know this is not a winning message because i wrote about this a few weeks ago, it is more vulnerable when you don't have proper policing and polls have shown not only are black voters voting for the

president, they reject the funding the police. if they want safe communities. how sharpton knows leaving black communities unsafe is a horrible way to win an election, they will not went on that message. todd: always with powerful statements, appreciate your time and your reaction to that breaking news. jillian: onto a fox news alert, battling massive wildfires in california. almost 150 had to be rescued by choppers from the creek fire in the sierra nevada. this state seeing its worst fire system in modern history, more than 2.5 million acres destroyed. one washington town almost completely destroyed by flames. janice dean joins us with the latest. terrible to see what is going on.
