senator braun, thank for joining us. president trump is on record saying no more lockdowns, what do you think about that? >> sounds like japan. what you take away from all this one size fits all that i think the bureaucrats said we needed to follow, obviously will be, i think distilled as being wrong once we look at it in the rear view mirror. i think what they did there was the things that all of us have been told to do. no business that i have talked to, it has been many, many, small, medium and large, and in my business that i was ceo of for 37 years right now, we've been paying attention to the rules. you do not want to put your customers other your employees in peril and it looks like japan did a common-sense approach. and that is not systematically kill your economy but respect the disease. i think when we look at the swedish model, look at japan, you look at what could have been done here in the country, i think, we'll find out that we didn't need to have the draconian measures in place, one size fits all, essenti

welcome indiana senator michael braun. senator, great to have you on. >> hi, liz.lizabeth: senator, you had lunch meeting today with the president. can you fill us in on what you guys talked about? >> i would say the general tone of the discussion was broad ranging but on on the topic we're talking about, the president is sensing his moment of vindication is coming. there was an exchange between him and lindsey graham, and the president, i think after all he has been through, where he has been harassed from the moment he was elected, through the mueller report that fell flat, through impeachment, that we need to get to the bottom of what was going on, and from what you just mentioned, in terms of the number of individuals, letters, potential subpoenas, this looks like it is the real thing and he threw the gaunt letdown at lunch, stick together on the topic. democrats always do when they come at you, i think it is fully warranted because the president has been under assault that is impacted the agenda. the agenda has been working wonderfully in terms of the economy,

the witness makes the same statement for abel braun. has to know this testimony is very important as now it is proven that the teeth truly belong to him for the 1st time communication with him and then you. know we asked her to make a sketch of hitler's teacher cute without showing her the teeth we had found. kater hadn't forgotten about hitler's terrible dental health. corresponded exactly to the jaw found by the soviets it removed all doubt about a corpse found in a hole in the chancery garden was it less. hitler was dead but how would stalin handle this information. stalin for the soviet leadership in berlin it was clear hitler was dead and stalin was informed immediately to not give stalin an accurate report on the subject was out of the question knew was more. hitler was a symbol of huge political important story like the taking of the right study and the conquest berlin took. stalin hardly emerged from the kremlin but he had informers everywhere. every day new documents about hitler's death and the identification arrived. they wer

senator braun, your state is starting a phased reopening. i wonder, when you look at what to do and how to move forward, everyone wants to reopen their businesses. how much weight do you put on the health experts and how much weight do you put on the economists who say, hey, listen, we need to get things going. dr. fauci today suggested that he's worried that if we reopen too quickly, we're going to see an increase of cases and there will be needless pain and suffering. >> so i think the health care p pros have to be relied upon and we've done that since the time we started tackling this until now. we are very close to where if we don't straddle, due both, we're going to have many issues that will cascade in terms of company bankruptcies, structural demand and supply destruction. and that is on the cusp. and the sad thing is, we've got to do both at once. we did it county by county back in indiana. we need to do it state by state. we're going to have to take a little mitigated risk, or i'm afraid that we could end up with the worst of both w

[ laughter ] >> seth: yeah. where do you think that optimism -- and more than just that optimism, but the fact that the optimism seems unflagging up to this point up to after this election >> well, i think all presidents -- well, i mean, jesus, i guess that's not true [ laughter ] i was gonna say all presidents have to be optimistic.
