if donald trump becomes -- >> ben stein, do you buy that? >> anybody who gets the nomination of a major party can raise as much money as he or she wants, there's no problem raising money. i remember mr. nixon saying how easy it was to raise money once you have the nomination. and so if mr. trump gets the nomination, a, fair a. money himself, nowhere near as much as he says he does, but he has a great deal of money. he'll get plenty of donations. the donors aren't going decide. the voters are going to decide, will trump implode or a bunch of punks drag him down? >> i don't know. i think he has a chance. i think he's got momentum. >> yeah. all right, adam, what do you think of that? >> well, of course he has a chance, of course he has momentum, but i think the people with money will do, will just continue what they've been trying to do for months now. and they will funnel that money away from trump. i totally disagree about that. >> they're not giving trump any money. >> he hasn't asked for any either yet. >> right. and he hasn't needed much b

also here, ben stein and carrie sheffield. charlie, the money that we've already spent 6.5 billion in the last couple of years finding isis, we have to spend a lot more? >> right. let's be clear, when reagan spent the soviet union into the ground, we had a huge peace dividend in the 1990s. there will be a peace dividend when we destroy isis. i want to make one other point regarding mayor guiliani, i think he's wrong. we're not in a conventional war. we can water board every one of the guys we capture and get their secrets out of them. we do not need to put ground troops in. we can bomb, according to donald trump, the you know what out of them. >> we're spending $11 million a day, carrie, we've dropped a lot of bombs, not as many sorties as people think. a lot of generals say we need to declare official war and put troops in on the ground. that means a whole lot more money. >> it does mean more money. we've got so much oil money. we've got so get saudi arabia in here, the jordanians. why not have a coalition where we're not the

opinions expressed right now were those of ben stein an only ben stein. those here at fox business network. a little more after this. pet moments are beautiful, unless you have allergies. then your eyes may see it differently. only flonase is approved to relieve both itchy, watery eyes and congestion. no other nasal allergy spray can say that. when we breathe in allergens our bodies react by over producing six key inflammatory substances that cause our symptoms. most allergy pills only control one substance. flonase controls six. and six is greater than one. complete allergy relief or incomplete. let your eyes decide. flonase. 6>1 changes everything. you premium like clockwork. month after month. year after year. then one night, you hydroplane into a ditch. yeah... surprise... your insurance company tells you to pay up again. why pay for insurance if you have to pay even more for using it? if you have liberty mutual deductible fund™, you could pay no deductible at all. sign up to immediately lower your deductible by $100. and keep lowering it $100 annuall

deirdre: ben stein, thank you, sir. sources saying dr. ben carson will officially suspend his campaign. you heard him say it for himself. he said "i'm leaving the campaign trail." he hinted at an endorsement but did not name a name. fox news will be bringing you more coverage on those events and more coverage on the primaries. i'll be with neil cavuto and lou dobbs. we are back in just a few minute. d dramatically. it wasn't too long ago it would take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome. now, we can do a hundred per day. with the microsoft cloud we don't have to build server rooms. we have instant scale. the microsoft cloud is helping us to re-build and re-interpret our business. this cloud helps transform business. this is the microsoft cloud. i use what's already inside me to reach my goals. so i liked when my doctor told me i may reach my blood sugar and a1c goals by activating what's within me. with once-weekly trulicity. trulicity is not insulin. it helps activate my body to do what it's supposed to do release its own insulin.

. >> ben stein is an economist and working with the nixon presidential library. tions with that country. ben, welcome. glad you're here. >> honored to be here. thank you very much. >> you know, it's rather ironic that you're celebrating the relations between the united states and china and donald trump says china is killing our economy. are they killing our economy? >> no, he's wrong. china is selling us high-quality goods at low prices and starting a trade war is exactly the wrong thing to do. there's no such thing as a winner in a trade war. for mr. trump to be saying that he's going to start one is just plain foolish. he's not going to get u.s. jobs back. he's going to make u.s. -- u.s. goods will not be able to be exported to china. china goods will be more expensive. trade wars don't work. >> he says that china is devaluing our economy and currency. is it? >> that's not true. he can say we can flap our wings and fly. he can say anything. china is devaluing its own currency to be able to trade to the u.s. and in some ways that is not good and while not many am

charles: ben stein what he makes of those remarks. t even start to describe what i think of them on a family network like fox. stupidest guy in the world, capitalism works for human dignity and prosperity. communism works for oppression of human spirit, for poverty and misery. the idea he thinks communism works in any way, shape or form except to suppress human dignity is just absolutely breathtakingly foolish and i wonder if, maybe they substituted some guy when he was at harvard, when he was columbia, this man can not possibly have studied history even a little bit. charles: you know, speaking of history, he is in south america. want to talk about a place where this is proven wrong. this is not theoretical or what you learn in college, the lure of it, fall in love. he is in a place where it has proven to be a mistake time and time again. these kids know about venezuela, they know about bolivia. they know about the history of this stuff and they says pick one. >> they don't know about that i suspect mainstream media down there glories

margaret, i also interviewed ben stein, the conservative economist. he told me trump is dangerously misinformed. listen. >> i just wond erds who are your supporting this time around. obviously it is not donald trump but who is it? >> well i don't know. i went to law school with mrs.nmrs. clinton. i've always had a kind of fo fondnefon fondness for her. i admire the fact that bernie sanders has a single payor national health plan. when i worked for mr. nixon as the speech writer i wrote the proposal for single payor health plan but i would like to see it be a republican. i've never voted for a democrat. but mr. trump i think is dangerously misinformed. i like him but he's dangerously misinformed. >> ooh so could ben stein vote for hillary clinton? he certainly inmated that. but like i said before, if all of these republicans were so against trump, why didn't they as republicans like to say man up sooner? >> look, what we know carol is that nobody thought it was going to get this far. and donald trump wasn't at the precipice of receiving the nomination

we are, to go to ben stein's point, talk about work. let's talk about work.ny longer in this country. this is a country that actually listens to nonsense spewed by george w. bush, by the way, in which he said there are jobs americans won't do. that's hogwash. there should be absolute respect for every job in this country. that's capitalism. [ speaking simultaneously ] >> is the messenger hurting his message? that's what i'm wondering here and whether it's going to come back to bite him. he might survive tonight by evening up the caucus and primary breakdown by winning louisiana, where he has a sizeable lead early on. we are way far from calling it for him. but what do you think of that? >> well, after a tough debate performance and it was not a good one, i was at cpac, a lot of his supporters were rolling their eyes, what in the world is going on tonight, if he can come out of saturday two for four, not bad. the big one is obviously tuesday, which you talked about, which is michigan. if he wins michigan -- >> what if he don't win michigan? right now there's a
