bush, ari fleischer. ari, i heard this all over again and again, style over substance.this debate could be different from all others. many have been televised again. >> the biggest difference many americans uneasy about the election. you have higher number of undecideds, there is no incumbent in power. with the president running for re-election, he was always for him and he won, i was always against him and he lost this is open race for the presidency. it has more impact. liz: we're looking at stage right now. it is daunting, intimidating. the lights will be on. the big issue nixon versus kennedy. nixon started to sweat. he mopped his brow. you can't hear someone mopping your brow if listening on radio. you only hear substance. people who saw it, he looked nervous and pasty. he was sweating because of the lights. al gore side a lot during the first debate against george bush, that hurt him in certain regards. these errant movements and facial expressions people make. how important is that for donald trump who you support as i understand it, to not roll your eyes or look

we'll see. >> i want to bring in ari fleischer, press secretary for george w. bush and bill burden, former press secretary for barack obama. bill, to what donald trump was talking about, if his take away from last night is he should have gone after secretary clinton on marital issues in the past with her family and plans to do that the next debate, do you think that's a mistake? >> a huge mistake. donald trump has a very narrow band of supporters he needs to attract to his campaign, they're college educated suburban voters looking for a reason to vote for donald trump for president of the united states. they didn't see anything last night that would suggest that they have permission or ought to do that because he would be a good commander-in-chief for our country. for him to get off that stage after he did a couple things well like prosecute the trade argument, to say "next time i'll take this in a different turn that is not going to be helpful for me" is a huge mistake. i think their strategy is in distress and not headed down the right path. >> ari, clearly d

ari fleischer, austan goolsbee will weigh in. plus, which candidate do you believe is better for minority voters. we will give you the facts as our panel weighs it straight ahead. voters. we'll give you the facts as the panel weighs in straight ahead. here's the plan. you want a family and a career, but most of the time you feel like you're trying to wrangle a hurricane. the rest of the time, they're asleep. then one day, hr schedules a meeting with you out of the blue. and it's the worst 19 minutes of your career. but you don't sweat it because you and your advisor have prepared for this. and when the best offer means you're moving to the middle of nowhere, the boys say they hate the idea. but you pretend it's not so bad. and years later at thanksgiving, when one of them says what he's thankful for most, is this house, you realize you didn't plan for any of this you wouldn't have done it any other way. with the right financial partner, progress is possible. >>> live from america's news headquarters i'm patricia stark. syria's fo

ari fleischer and austan goolsbee will weigh in. >> look at the middle east, it is a mess under your direction. >> and trump exposed her history of foreign policy failures. >> he didn't ask her about the e-mails at all, he didn't ask her about the scandals. >> plus blatant media mainstream bias, lester hold ignored clinton's major scanned always. "hannity" starts right here right now. >> welcome to "hannity." so tonight it was bill as he debated a century and it did not disappoint. last night's presidential showdown between donald trump and hillary clinton was the single most entertaining and most-watched debate i've seen, and facts are facts with nielsen ratings. it highlights how out of touch i argue the mainstream media is with you, the american people. now, a female viewer to this show sent us a note. i think it sums up perfectly when she said this. she said, i thought he did well until i started watching the after shows and they mentioned all of the lost opportunities. now, if you listen to the elites and the punditry on television and radio, they universally think hillary clint

here with reaction, former white house press secretary ari fleischer and former obama economic adviser, responsible for the lowest labor participation rate since the '70s, 12 million more people on food stamp. welcome, austin. how are you. >> you lost me at hello. >> it's all true. but i do believe that those numbers will mean something to the voters this year. eight years of obama followed by clinton saying she's going to continue the same madness i think will impact a lot of people. it hits their pocketbook. >> to question, sean. and the most important factor is that most americans think the economy is on the wrong track. >> 37 points. >> and that's what signals a change election. on the one hand the democrats and hillary are benefits from the demeanor graphic changes on the other hand the republicans are benefitting from the argument that we need to go in a different direction. even in a week when we just learned that poverty did drop, we still haven't gotten back to where we were before the great recession began. >> and on top of it he's accumulated more debt than every single pres

ari fleischer, former white house press secretary for george w. bush joins me now. do you think a lot had to do with debate experience over time? it was a really long period of time to be sitting out there standing, battling back and forth? this is something she has done since law school. almost all lawyers are very good at debate stage thing. it is specific skill. he is not very experienced this? >> my guess he is counterpuncher. i will be ready what hill think lows at me. he doesn't go in with checklist. i will talk about the supreme court and immigration. if i hit with y, i raise with b. melissa: that makes a lot of sense. one of the points she made a lot of people didn't catch is this, it's a new phrase that will start rearing its head all over american society, this i implict bias idea. >> yes. melissa: like a disease your infected while you're sleeping and you don't even know it, wake up the next day and you have it. you're racist and don't even know it. it could happen to anyone. >> i caught it immediately. hillary says all americans are implicitly racist. i

ari fleischer is one of those who wishes he would hold back. good luck with that this is what he told hannity last night. >> i would like to see him do in the next debate, sean. cool it down a notch. >> really? >> i thought hillary came across as calm and cool. trump came across as hot and she got to him and needled him. bill: that all may be true but trump attraction because of his personality. >> but people attracted to trump and hot personality, they're with him no matter what. get worrying about the daggone base. he has got them. they have been with him thick and thin. they stuck around and love him enough or hate hillary clinton enough. they will stay with him. ari fleischer is 100% right. donald trump needs to be calm, cool collected at next debate. needs to prosecute the case against hillary clinton not with anger, not with contempt for her, but with, not with regret almost. he needs to be, he needs to be sorry how bad she is. he needs to be sorry about the state of the country and feel bad about it and present himself as reasonable choi

former white house press secretary ari fleischer standing by. and john robert standing by. you have to think the campaign is happy about yesterday. >> i think you can arguably say donald trump had the best day of his campaign. he had the meeting with enrique nieto, it put donald trump on the same stain as a world leader, behind the podium giving a statement. one of the big issues regarding the immigration speech is what donald trump will do about the anies of people in the country. all criminal illegal aliens will be deported as soon as possible. anyone who enters the country illegally will be subject to deportation. and there will be no path to citizenship. but he left a bit of ambiguity about what will happen to non-illegal aliens. >> when we have accomplished all of our enforcement and depore take goals and truly -- deportation goals and, then and only then will we be in a position to consider the appropriate disposition of those individuals who remain. reporter: that is dialing back from his original position of everyone is going to be deported. anand coulter said she t

on early i told him you were to come in say donald trump had a great day ari fleischer was saying itts he had to say, but he was saying that he the percent garnering hispanic black minority population to in minuscule would have to have a white voter turnout election day it doesn't matter yesterday didn't change anything. >> you know, ari's math on voter turnout almost as bad as your math on timing. >> thank you, sir. . >> i don't think that trump had a very good day yesterday because he won over black or hispanic vets i think he had a very good day yesterday because he looked presidential stayed on message, stole completely the political initiative. i think it is showing up in the polls, they are narrowing allocates fox news poll you showed on program tied statistically tied in four-way split the i think he had a terrific day i think going places i think this is new trump i think this election is still up for grabs. >> very interesting, one last thought from you, if i may mr. kaepernick nfl player on bench national anthem big preseason game tonight military vets on field at halftime

joining me now, ari fleischer, our senior political analyst, former presidential adviser to four presidentsnixon, ford, reagan, clinton. ari, let me start with you. you've been there. you've both been there. i want to talk about these final hours. you know, most of us -- you have both been here for debates, but you think of a big game in your life, a big interview, you're nervous right beforehand but there's nothing like what's going to happen tonight and just a few hours away. what are they doing in the final few hours? >> well, in case of president bush he used to work out, get a massage, just try to get his mind in a different place. it's too late at this stage to cram, get ready for last-minute details, worry about this or that, so you want them to get loose, comfortable, ready and confident. that's how you want them to walk onto the stage. >> we know hillary clinton's at a hotel near here. might be getting a massage. i don't know. >> i hope so. >> what do you think in the last final hours? >> i think it's worth it to do 30 minutes of a mock debate. like coming on a football game before

. >> and joining us now, former white house secretary ari fleischer. let's talk about the difference between so many online polls and the media class. what do you think? >> the polls are not scientific but they all point in one direction. why are all of these media organizations taking the polls if they can't talk about them. >> cbs, slate, "time" magazine. >> you can go down the line. there are many. they do it for click bait but if they're going to do it -- that's exactly right. >> do you think that what i'm saying is true that the old model paradigm zingers fed to you by someone else, i don't think it's going to resonate. there's no better debate near the country than ted cruz and he struggled with donald trump. >> the history shows it doesn't matter who wins the debate, the voters make up their mind on a rare city of issues. donald trump proved wrong from the prir mayprimaries all the w through now. what i would like to see him do in the next debate is cool it down a notch. i thought hillary came across as cool, trump came across as hot. i think sh

ari fleischer, who was press secretary at the time, provided six pages of handwritten notes to yahoo! and reuters, and as the yahoo! reporter writes, notes reveal or at least remind how uncertainty racked the country and, of course, air force one, on an hour by hour basis with false reports that the president's plane was a target, a car bomb was at the state department, and a plane had crashed near camp david. "fighters scrambled, escorted down plane near washington," fleischer wrote at 10:20 a.m. the comm equipment is good, but not great, authorized shoot down if necessary. he writes that bush's chief of staff reported the plane was heading up to 45,000 plane. they claim we can outrun anybody, fleischer said. the notes recount how bush's daughters were moved to a safe house and how bush inquired after his dog, barney, "he's nipping at the heels osama bin laden," he was told. the notes also reveal his steely determination to go after the terrorists responsible for the two hijacked planes and felling the world trade center towers, another at the pentagon, and a fourth crashing in the f

bush ari fleischer. always good to see you. economy and return to prosperity topic number one in this election campaign? >> for the american people topic number one is lack of economic growth. you feel it and this is the most important factor that makes people think the country is on the right track. more than unemployment or a lot of other data and the reason is obvious, it impact paychecks and sense of optimism about the future and when the economy is growing at a 1.1% rate certain people will do well, most americans do what we are. stuart: why is this not topic number one in the election campaign? hillary clinton maybe want to soft-pedal that for a wild but i don't understand why donald trump has the i got a growth plan. >> donald trump hasn't handled it properly. when the economic data came out the first gdp numbers was one.2% he was attacking republicans that they. when it came to 1.1% they put out a statement from staff. these are predictable days from provisions to gdp coming out, major economic data comes out, you can p
