andrew sullivan, it's great to hear from you tonight. and i wonder why trump would pull the old nixon thing, i haven't brought it up, but people thought i should have. i was going to be a gentleman. if you're going to be a gentleman, be a gentleman and not brag about not being a bore. why would he want to get into marital fidelity? why would he choose that baby? >> i think he thinks the way she treated the women that her husband had dalliances with or sexually harassed underlines her credibility as a defender of women's issues. now, i think that does haveso se traction on the right, but i certainly don't think it does anything to win over the kind of people he needs to win over right now, basically, you know, college-educated white-collar people who are used to republicans and wavering about him. i think it would be terrible for him to do that. so i think he made that decision and then tried to make himself seem virtuous. but if he does it next time, i think it's going to backfire really badly. >> i wonder whether -- let me go back to da

joining us this morning, andrew sullivan. are taking a look at the flows, and much of it is asia leading the way. think people within asia are slightly happier with the outlook because the accommodative policy we are seeing out of china. investor's of view, it is difficult. they want to stay with liquidity , because getting out and getting in stocks is difficult. angie: the selloff in the equity market, investors while initially jubilant are nervous again, why? >> we are running into the end of the quarter. the fed has not changed policy. there is little reason for funds to change their position. you are seeing a little pullback from that. going into the next quarter, the presidential election, rather like rags it, too close to call, so maybe a lot of money is looking to sit on the sidelines until we get clarity. aree: interesting that we seeing very light volumes throughout the morning ahead of that big donald trump-hillary clinton face-off. pundits are saying this will be crucial because they are so close, and i suspect it
