tomorrow with an audience and a major programming announcement on monday. we will have an exclusive sit down interview with donald trump for the full hour. >> [cheers and applause]. >> sean: never miss an episode. trump is on monday and pence tomorrow. that's all the time we have left. let not your heart be troubled. a warm hello to -- [laughing]. >> [cheers and applause]. >> laura: hi, everybody. i have an idea. my idea is you have pence tomorrow and then you have trump monday. why not do them together on the same show? >> no! >> laura: come on. for old time's sake. that would be a show. >> sean: the bottom line is the person that needs to go is joe.

that's the bottom line. >> laura: i hope the president is watching. i will give a few campaign tips in my "angle." for him and desantis. awesome audience there. i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. campaign advice. that's the focus of tonight's "angle." i thought i would play campaign manager tonight for trump and desantis. since most of my advice for them relates to the economy we need to be clear on how biden tanked it. instead of encouraging states to reopen their economies and get kids back in the classroom biden kept the panic going by keeping fauci outfront and mandated

covid vaccine for federal workers and who knows how many people lost their jobs for shots they didn't want. then there was the obscene spending. after we had already spent 4 trillion dollars on covid relief president biden decided to spend more. he insisted on blowing 2 trillion dollars more on the named american rescue plan. there is no such thing as free money. this sent inflation higher. millions of workers stayed at home. that dragged us down. biden created an inflation time bomb. this is where the campaign needs to focus. conditions by larry summers they were dismissed. >> i see important transitory infl

influencesality work. -- influences at work. i don't anticipate it will be permanent. >> laura: how did she keep her job. the infrastructure bill cost a trillion dollars. the parade ever horribles and in august the inflation reduction act. only 740-billion dollars -- >> i signed the inflation reduction act into law. the most important legislation passed in the congress and one of the most significant laws in our nation's history. >> laura: it was 755 pages long. no one read it. it was a pork filled mess and made inflation worse >> these were all pieces of the big law we passed last year. now they are kicking in. americans are starting to feel

the benefits in every day lives. >> laura: oh, yeah, right. because the fed raised rates too late and too little even 9 straight hikes did not bring down inflation. caused the current banking crisis. a new poll by the associated press shows only 10% of americans have faith in our banking systems. who can blame them? our economic growth is flat lining. the fed projected that the gdp will be .4% and next year only 1.2%. both numbers are down from their earlier projections. welcome to biden's new economic normal. long lasting inflation and a lower standard of living. put that on a bumper sticker. >> i go to two stores.

food town and the dollar store to get the extras for cheaper. >> [muffled audio]. >> people are not working. jobs are not the same. for stores to increase the price it's very hard. >> we cut back on the amount we purchase. we ration the size. not as many left overs. >> laura: this is the reality of the life in the biden era. this is what any republican candidates needs to dig us out from. what should desantis's campaign message sound like? number 1, don't get sucked into a trump slugfest. it won't benefit desantis to respond to small criticisms. he did a good job with piers morgan by just briefly touching on it and moving on. >> the nickname from trump so

far meat ball ron? >> i don't know how to spell desanctimonuous. i like it long? >> it's got a lot of vowels. i will have with that. call me whatever you want as long as you call me a winner. that's what we have been able to do in florida. >> laura: and republicans want to win. most like trump policies and appreciate trump's service to the country. desantis knows he has to convince voters that he will be more of a trump republican and not a romney republican. he will be america first without the constant chaos. >> my approach to leadership. get personnel in the government who have the agenda of the people. you bring your own agenda in, you are gone. we won't have. that the way we run the government is no daily drama. focus on the big picture and put

points on the board. that's very important. >> laura: there will be drama whether you like it or not. wishful thinking but not a bad point. as important as the woke stuff is for parents and kids, republicans i think have gotten just about as many voters from those issues that they will get. the key question for voters about desantis: did he know how to turn around the u.s. economy? this will be a 1980s style election. we doubt ourselves and the rest of the world is doubting us. it will require that desantis will do the above. without a strong economy america becomes weaker and more vulnerable in every way including foreign affairs. desantis has to bone up on that

as well. this is the danger with an emboldened china. in biden america lost leverage in the world. we only get it back when our economy is strong again. we stop making china rich. trump gets this. he is very comfortable talking about this. desantis has to be more convincing. his economic team has to be comprised of people who live and breathe these issues. no one from the swampy old gop guard should be given any prominent role. new blood and new ideas and bold thinking. desantis has had a very good story to tell in florida, the rest of the country needs to hear more than what he did on covid or how he fights liberal schools. he has to convince voters he can take the florida story and win nationally. he won't be the guy on election

night complaining he lost because he got cheated. he will win by such a large margin even sleazy democrats won't be able to over comeit. now campaign advice for president trump. if i were trump i would urge him to stop talking about 2020. it's over. enough! mayor marinating old claims won't win over a single voter in 2024. it gives desantis an opening to say -- why take a chance on a guy who complained after the fact about early voting. trump knows the stuff but needs to lay it out step-by-step. cut government spending. 10% across the board.

middle-class tax cuts. reverse biden's anti-fossil fuel agenda. pull our manufacturing back from china. shut down the border. move people out of the country who never qualified for asylum. all of those things would be a good start. republican voters are in no mood to lose in 2024. they know the stakes. they will only nominate a man or a woman but i think it will be trump or desantis whom they believe is defeat the democrat machine. with this economy the victory of any republican candidate should be overwhelming. not a speaker. expanding the gop base is key. i suggest talk less about yourself and more about the american people. you met a lot of them. voters don't want a replay about

the greatest hits of adam schiff. they want you to get the most talented advisors and treat them well. surround yourself with givers and not takers. policy people who know how to hit the ground running on day 1. run a tight ship. run against the democrats and not met media. we know the press is biassed -- don't dwell on it. drop the nicknames and petty personal stuff. it was funny in 2020 but i don't think it works now. i sense the voters are weary of that stuff. debate your opponents on the merits. you have a great work. take it to the next level. i think you should keep sleepy joe. i like that one. that's my advice and that's the "angle."

joining me is mollie hemmingway and chris bedford. what is most important for both front returns starting with president trump? >> i like the advice you gave. i think president trump has the advantage of having so many republican voters who don't just like him, they love him. they love the policies that he did when he was president. they are concerned about whether or not he can win. he needs to make that case that he can win. talk about the coalition he is building. why he has the ability to put together the best coalition. his successes during his first term as president. just address that issue that many republicans have. ron desantis, he needs to follow your advice there of not listening to the swamp voices about what he should do but trusting his gut. he should not try to distance himself so much from president

trump because of how much republican voters like those trump policies. >> laura: to mollie's point on desantis, i didn't see the entire interview, he talked about putin he said i think he is get of war crimes. i am not saying that's bad to say. but it shifts him over towards the gop establishment begin what xi and putin pulled off with a meeting and a new meeting schedule in beijing. your thoughts on the ukraine angle? >> well, unless you can explain the difference between someone committing war crimes and the justice interest of the united states. courting world war iii that should be concerned. -- considered. it hasn't been considered in

washington d.c. is it in the american interest to get embroiled in a war in ukraine. that's what we are playing with here. desantis has so far done a good job on. >> laura: and mollie, president trump criticized desantis. he said he is for a republican an average governor. ron was a big lockdown governor. others did much better than ron because i allowed them the freedom never close your states. do you think anyone in america think lockdowns when they hear ron desantis? >> not many people would say that. he had some shut downs early on, he was known for resisting that.

he had so much success. if he runs he will run touting his great success in how he handle the response to the covid pandemic better than other governors. ron desantis should focus on what a good governor he is and how other republican governors should be. he should not back track. he had good statements on the ukraine war that matched with what the average republican voter and even average american thinks about the biden and mcconnell foreign policy we are subjected to right now. he catered to that beltway establishment swamp mind set that worries people. he won't have the courage ever his convictions to stay strong. we will see how it goes. he needs to show courage on under fire from how the beltway establishment will react to him not adopting the failed foreign

policy. >> laura: trump knows what it's like to face down nato. even though he got huge push back from the usual suspects in the media and politics back home. desantis didn't have that experience. trump has the advantage on the geo-political stage with xi and the europeans given how things are declining in the west today. >> yes, despite the cries from the "washington post" that donald trump was laughed at by europeans. they did what they asked him to do. he was a giant and people listened. he was dining across from xi jingping when missile were launched at syria. that's something that ron desantis is trying to hit on.

donald trump's phone calls leaked by his generals in afghanistan and the national security council. desantis said personnel is something he takes seriously and surrounding himself with royal people. he hasn't had leaks and the personnel problems that donald trump suffered from got worse after he left office. still slime and grift around the former president. he has that great advantage. if you go to iowa, desantis trailing a couple of hundred people. because the gop is stupid, the professional class, he's are the only 2 candidates running. it's up to them to figure out who will be the nominee. donald trump has the excitement but desantis has a better chance. >> laura: mollie and chris, great to see both of you.

>> [inaudible]. >> [crowd noise]. >> your opinion from the bench. for many people here your work caused harm. i know that must be uncomfort to here. >> laura: the snapping of the fingers again -- an update on the hideous attack on a trump appointed judge. this is the associate dean list of diversity inclusion at stanford law school who not only allowed this abuse to happened but engaged in it herself. the school said the dean was placed on leave.

the student who engaged in this disturbing behavior, this is how bad it got. a judge wrote in the "wall street journal" one protestor screamed we hope your daughters get raped. what will happen to the future lawyers of america? nothing. the memo from the cowards at stanford said the students won't be disciplined because administrators sent conflicting signals about what was happening was acceptable or not. stanford students need to be told by professors whether it's okay to hope an indicted speaker's daughters get raped. in a senate armed service subcommittee we learned that the pentagon is doling out 6 figure jobs and working with doctors who suggest that 7 years old may make decisions on gender affirming care. another day without donald trump's indictment in the hush

money case. is this over. a former acting attorney general has insight.

for republicans to audit how all pentagon dollars are spent. there are giant increases in the defense budget. how many times have i said that. stop giving a blank check to the pentagon? when we don't demand answers on where the money is going we get situations that are horrific like this where pentagon doctors say to make it easy for military use to get so-called gender affirming care including puberty blockers. the doctors are saying we can include children as young as age 7 in the decision making process. that's just the tip of the iceberg. >> this the story of a soldier who patriots missile defense systems. begins in california with a little girl raised by 2 moms. i needed my own adventures and

my own challenge. after meeting with an army recruiter i found a way to prove my inner strength and shatter stereo types along the way. >> laura: why can everything a cartoon again? i am grateful for anyone putting on a uniform for our freedoms. the army missed its recruiting goal last year by 25%. our enemies like china have the largest standing army in the world. >> you have heard that communist china is deterred by our dei efficientives?

i will take that as a no. -- initiate riffs. . >> laura: good to see you. how do republicans continue to rubber stamp the kind of spending given what we just laid out. what are they doing within the ranks of our own military. >> i served on the armed forces committee. first the biden administration from the beginning injected identity politics into everything. grants for schools with crt. it made its way into the military. the military was an apolitical place. we have ticker tape parades for

people who serve this country. this is hurting recruitment. having for $114-million dollars for dei. china is building islands in the sea fully weaponized. we need a lethal fighting force and focus on that instead of this woke politics the biden administration is hell bent on injecting everywhere. >> laura: i think it's hurting recruitment. all of this woke stuff is hurting recruitment. the vaccine mandates. it's not anything different than a college campus. people say i can do that somewhere else. not the military i thought i was going to interest.

one of your democrat colleagues had a solution to the military's recruit trouble. >> we need to talk about other ways to expand that recruiting pool. this will aid services recruitment. who can do? daca and dreamers. >> laura: is in the way to rebuild our military? >> no. this is insanity. we have incredible men and women in our armed forces. we need more. the way we deter more people from joining the military is with this woke politics in every crevice of society because of the biden administration. the military is no place for this. we have to be ready for threats

around the world specifically china. this deters recruitment and makes it difficult. we heard from service members who said they are uncomfortable with. this has no place in our military. >> laura: senator, thank you. everything seems set up for manhattan district attorney alvin bragg to bring the long awaited liberal hero who would take down trump. there were a few problems. his plan was predicated on flimsy league argument, he relied on a porn star and a perjurier. . >> now his reliance on michael cohen is coming back to bite him. cohen said trump asked him to pay with funds from his own

money. in a letter cohen's attorney released something far different. from cohen used his own personals fund and neither the trump organization nor the trump campaign was a party to the transaction and neither reimbursed mr. cohen. here is matthew whitaker. could this change where this case is going? >> michael cohen has been on both side. prosecutors love to ask were you telling the truth then or now? it's giving the prosecution team

pause putting this this front of a grand jury and trying to get them to vote president trump and ultimately a jury trial and ha those 12 citizens will think about this evidence. >> laura: the build-up is working in donald trump's favor in the court of public opinion. i had a couple of democrat friends of mine from college who are going the democrats are going to screw this up. they take it a step too far. we saw it with mueller and now seeing it again. i think in the end this is not a smart move. forget the case is ridiculous. politically, i don't think this plays well at all. >> no, this plays into the way

that donald trump has been portrayed as a victim of the left's pursuit of him. it makes him stronger in his base. i think you're absolutely right. the left will overplay this. this case is so weak to start out. it's only going to get weaker. alvin bragg is contorting himself into a pretzel to bring charges demonstrates how bad this idea is for the left to prosecutor trump under this set of facts. >> laura: does the georgia case or the classified documents case pose serious legal trouble to trump? >> no, i don't think they do. in all of these situations they are always taking the facts and circumstances and using the

worst case scenario against trump. instead of applying the law. >> laura: fauci is ready for another close up and an l.a. teacher's strike looks like a dance party. raymond arroyo has that on "seen and unseen" next. for less than $5.00 a day, you can own you very own tracker off road or a brand-new tracker boat, motor and trailer package. the fastest growing off-road brand in america and the world's #1 one best selling fishing and pontoon boats are built by and sold factory direct at bass pro shops and other select dealers. plus, for a limited time receive a bass pro shops gift card worth $500 and more. escape into the great outdoors with tracker boats and atvs. bring you this she■s a hero moment. new york city. you have to have the skill and the drive to make it here.

book. it's a children book. people think they know about edison's life. why do you call him the patron saint of home schooling? >> i don't know why he is not regarded as that. this series is called turn about tails. it's crisis points in the young lives of historic figures. in the case of edison he was thrown out of school at 8 years old. the school master said he could not be taught. his mother said you are wrong. my son has more intelligence than you do. she home schooled him and allowed him to read deeply and experience. learn with his head and his hands. that was the last formal schooling he received. we gave us the microphone and cameras and batteries. it's an incredible story of

never giving up on a child and how a parent's devotion can tend a life that burns into the next century. that's what we have in edison. >> laura: not every child fits into the square peg and round hole. a lot of kids don't learn the same way. they can learn much better that w way. >> this is a book of hope for those who have been cast aside or told you are not good enough. >> laura: raymond, you are always on book tours. the unexpected life of the spider with the wise men. >> stop it. >> laura: you are on a book tour and going to my favorite place the villalgs. >> i will check out your next retirement home. that's on saturday -- and new

>> they hope they will learn the dolphin's cause of death. some say the sonar survey for wind farms off the beach. >> maybe the wind turbines off-shore. they won't stop the testing for the wind mill farms. it's sad to everybody -- actually we are mad they are not stopping it. >> laura: another person angry that these projects are not stopped is the new jersey mayor. he has been a commercial fish man since he was 12 years old. mayor, these wind farms also pose a danger to fishermen do they not? >> hmmm, thanks for having me on a cold night here. these dolphins it's something

new to us. we heard one or two here and there. i have never heard of eight coming to the beach. a couple of years ago we had two whales here. it's getting to be a problem and expensive to clean up the beaches. it's a shame that these whales. nobody wants to find out the reason why. >> laura: where is the federal government? the maritime experts? the energy department? they are pushing these massive wind farms in the atlantic ocean and in the pacific ocean that will take up how many miles of space? they made that very loud whirring sound and whales and dolphins operate with their own sonar communication.

this might be the cause of their mass stranding. it's spooking them and they are moving into a beach area instead of out to the ocean. what else could it be at this point? does anyone have another explanation? >> no. they are supposed to do testing on this but they have not done it yet. i think they are waiting -- they are in a hurry to get the wind mills up before the tax credit run out. it would be nice if they did studies on these whales. the commercial fish men see them off-shore. they have a video of one flashing around in the ocean like he was going to die any minute. that was off-shore. we are seeing it on the beach there where the deaths have.

the commercial fishing industry we can't even drop a net in the water without some kind of a plan, something to -- we get a certain amount of takes on turtles. we have done a great job staying away from turtles. we wish everybody would do the same. be held to the same standard. >> laura: that would be nice. this is insanity. the save the whale people, where are they? nowhere to be found. because green energy trumps animal rights. mayor we have to go. we will follow this story. thank you. kamala harris drops a line for the ages. that's "the last bite" next.
