chamber of commerce, not the commerce department at all, the chamber of commerce has this estimate that some say is a worst case scenario. if these trade actions all go through, these are the kind of jobs would be loss, if nafta collapsed, 1.8 million, 470,000 from metal tariffs, and 157,000 from auto tariffs. we have a huge manufacturing base in this country that imports these metals so that higher prices will be passed on to american consumers. >> don't go anywhere. a lot of economic news this morning. the president, brianna, tweeting about this. >> it seemed like the question is did the president break protocol? >> this morning he appears to have done so once again,

it have to be despite a guy who sold out to wall street, to koch brothers, to, round table, chamber of commerce, not one of them is a friend of the working man and woman in the country, middle class family. and one thing that president has demonstrated, this is an administration for forgotten man and women, until 2016 did not have a chance in hell. because middle cla was shrinking, now prosperity is for all americans, not just an expression or if you will a dog whistle, it is a president doing all that, while you have got a speaker who is talking about raising retirement age to 70, and reducing social security, and willing to cutback to medicare for 65 and older, he is tearing up the soul of the republican party at a time when this president is leading republicans toward certain victory in november despite historic comparatives that suggest it should be a time of defeat for party in power. paul ryan insists on meeting that historical scan toward rather than -- standard. >> there was a shift with president trump. and i will say proudly that the republican party is the trump party. we recognize t

left the podium, went back into the hotel, and just an hour or so later, they attended the chamber of commerce breakfast in the ballroom in the hotel an hour later. i think the ticket price was $2.50, to see the president of the united states and the first lady that morning. you have to remember, this is a campaign swing. there had been some fractures in texas democratic politics, and he and vice president johnson were on this swing, to try to mend the fractures in the democratic party, so this is very much a political stopover. at the gym speech, he talked -- at the chamber of commerce speech, he talked about fort worth and our role in aviation history. the new bomber that had just been approved for construction here. my view, america was at war at that time, and we were very concerned about what was going on around the world, both nearby off the coast of florida, and in russia, and the middle east. so, natial security was very much top of mind. the bomber that was going to be built here was going to be very important. that was an opportunity to talk about the united states'role in internatio

the president and first lady came here that night to give a speech to the chamber of commerce. he was raining and despite the weather, house -- thousands and thousandses of people had gathered. famously said, there are no faint hearts in fort worth and today there's a memorial tribute to him here in general worth square and then he gave the remarks to the chamber of commerce before departing for trip here made a dramatic impression. we're going to come out of downtown and again across the river to the museum district. we're coming up on a site to your right that today is the modern art museum of fort worth. the building designed by the japanese architecture, and one of the interesting things about fort worth is five great museums all located right here. on your right is the kimball, the great masterpiece by allowies cahn, home to the only michelangelo in the americas. is is the museum of modern art. it started is a -- started because amon carts early created a lot of the great artists of the west and when he dialed he said i am going to establish a free museum for all time and t

s aren't happy the chamber of commerce for its part saying this quote, imposing tariffs places the cost of china's unfair trade practices squarely on the shoulders of american consumers, manufacturers, farmers and ranchers this is not the right approach there's been a high volume of reaction in washington today some manufacturing groups are in support of the move. for the most part, republicans have been hedging saying the end goal is the right one. they are still not sure if this is the way to get there. >> one of the lines in the lease today that jumped out at me was that it said that u.s. companies may have an interest in importing items from china covered by the additional duties accordingly they will provide an opportunity for the public to request a particular product from the additional duties subject to this action what does that mean? >> there's a platform for feedback for companies to weigh in if this is something that will hurt them

. >> the chamber of commerce says this move risks 2.6 million u.s. jobs. especially if it causes nafta to fall apart. nafta is 1.5 million jobs tied if the u.s. leaves nafta. president trump responded to trudeau saying he wants a fair deal or none at all. "wall street" editorial board slamming trump. hurting his foreign policy and perhaps republicans in november. republicans are fuming. ben sasse says this is dumb. speaker paul ryan says the u.s. should work with allies instead of targeting them. "the wall street journal" editorial. i encourage you to read it. it says the president thinks he is being ronald reagan. >> but terrifying echos of

chamber of commerce and many of our members, small businesses or large corporations, there enthusiasm for what is going on in the economy. economic growth has been strong. we see remarkable unemployment numbers. some of the lowest numbers we have seen in half a century. when we do surveys of our members, we see business confidence is high. a lot of things are going right. we can certainly ascribe that to tax reform, which we believe will pay big dividends for the economy in years to come. regulatory reform and restraint, as well. there are a lot of things going right. the economy is really at the peak of an economic cycle. when we talk about trade, there is a lot more questions. we are starting to see some indications at, particularly for sectors that are more impacted by trade, there could be warning lights in the not-too-distant future. >> one of the big trade issues that remains undecided is nafta. we start reporting this week that justin trudeau refused to meet with the president after being told he would have to agree to a five-year sunset on nafta. these negotiations have dragge

frank spar to larry president of the american chamber of commerce here in germany thank you for having me. ratings agency s. and p. downgraded to the credit status of georgia bank this after the federal deposit insurance corporation a u.s. agency charged with maintaining stability in the banking system has named to the bank's u.s. business troubled it is another blow to germany's biggest lender whose new c.e.o. just announced restructuring plans to put deutsche are back on track the news had deutsche bank shares plummeting to an historic low on thursday with the wall street journal reporting that u.s. institutions had lost trust in the bank about a year ago the federal reserve labeled the banks u.s. business as troubled that's now led the united states deposit insurer f.d.i.c to add deutsche bank to its list of problem banks the list specifies those institutions with weaknesses that endangered their financial viability. the new blow comes in the middle of restructuring efforts deutsche bank's new c.e.o. christians evening wants to bring it safely back into the black again after three c

chamber of commerce in china discussing the looming trade war between the u.s. and china and here ups prospects in all of this stay with us. i think it's trying to imagine that i say things just to be controversial and you would not withstand the level of attacks of police harassment of detention of having my passport take ten of social services being called on my children of my family being on threat of coming to jihad this plot to behead me in nov twenty seventh i don't believe you would withstand those levels of people trying to trying to silence you if you didn't believe what you senator. this is rather trendy over the past few years to talk about the new world order fair enough the recent g seven in canada in trying to engage north korea for just two weeks. pax americana is undergoing a significant transformation. and we're back with your good care former president of the chamber of commerce in china discussing whether we're on the verge of a global trade war so trump is saying that europe and canada has been playing the u.s. for years with their own tower e

the british chambers of commerce has cut its forecast for the uk. olicy? yes, this is the issue and the bank of england have got to be careful they are notjust moving the rates higher to stop the divergences in interest rates around the world. the uk is not necessarily performing well and not only have we got those bad bits of data, we have brexit hanging over our heads and we have no idea what that means. it is a strange time, but we do have the ecb moving to tighten manager policy, the us is doing it and accelerating it at that pace. the bank of england are lagging behind and the probability of how much we expect to see that, it was around 50% for a rate hike in august and has dropped back now and is around the late 30s, early 40s for a rate hike so it could change. making the point that the bed rates rose last week. what will it do to the consumer and to the spender, that impact? that is thinking of mark carney who is looking in his crystal ball and thinking, if we do do this in august, what is the impact in the second half of the uk? absolutely,

chamber of commerce, a lot of enthusiasm for what's going on in the economy. growth has been pretty strong. we're seeing remarkable un employment numbers. numbers we'vewest seen in half a century. when we see surveys of the members of the small business members and others, we see that business confidence is high. a lot of things are going right. some of that we can certainly ascribe to tax reform. which is we believe going to pay big dividends for the economy. regulatory reform and restraint as well. there's a lot of things going right. really at they is peak of economic sake the. but then when we talk about there's a lot more questions, i think. somee're starting to see indications that particularly for sectors that are more impact ed by trade that this could be -- there could be warn so lights in the not distant future. >> one of the big trade issues is nafta.ns undecided we saw reporting this week that meetau tueshad reyed to with the -- refused to meet with the president after being told to agree to a five-year deal on nafta. the negotiations have dragged

think that there is a discussion to go on on capitol hill and they are trying to represent the chamber of commercenterest. it is sickening to watch gutless frauds even discuss the issues that are paramount importance to the epitire -- entire countries. >> it will get worse. congress is undermining the rule of law and the media is undermining the rule of law. we have to get across the boarder and take advantage because they will not hold us. any discussion of amnesty increases illegal imgrapgz. the president needs to stand fast and enforce the rule of law. it is why he was put in office and fundamental to the united states. >> lou: the president is already a historic president and only person to lose in not abiding by his promises to the american people and to his base and to his voters because no one expects any of those other folks on capitol hill to keep a single promise that they ever made. i doubt they remember what they promised their voters with a view exceptions and we mentioned half dozen of them. nquickly here, there is an opportunity to get a quick small bill in that allows families to b

and for k-street, chamber of commerce round table and woot.all street. >> first is path to citizenship, i am an immigration hardliner, i admit it. i don't think that people who come here illegally should have a automatic path to citizenship, it is not something we bestow on people who come illegally. and chain migration, not legalized as a consequence of family relationship rather than economic value they can bring in. america first agenda that presidenta delivering on for american people demands we putin rest of this country first, not interest of family reunification over our economic objective. i nang the presideni think thats right, moving forward. do we start from negotiations ryan bill or from the bill that got 193 votes. we should start from conservative bill as a bases to go forward. lou: you are not contemplating 94 slo another vote. >> we promised people a wall. and get rid of chain migration. lou: everyone talks about over borders and amnesty. it should be clear to everyone now. not just republicans in the house of representatives.

chamber of commerce, not the commerce department at all, the chamber of commerce has this estimate that some say is a worst case scenario. if these trade actions all go through, these are the kind of jobs would be loss, if nafta collapsed, 1.8 million, 470,000 from metal tariffs, and 157,000 from auto tariffs. we have a huge manufacturing base in this country that imports these metals so that higher prices will be passed on to american consumers. >> don't go anywhere. a lot of economic news this morning. the president, brianna, tweeting about this. >> it seemed like the question is did the president break protocol? >> this morning he appears to have done so once again, foreshadowing the jobs report before it had even been released. at around 7:21 this morning, he said he was looking forward to seeing the jobs numbers, foreshadowing a report that came out at 8:30. there's a rule that prevents federal employees from commenting on the jobs report until one hour after the numbers have been released. the president here tweeting about it it over an hour before it had even come out. the reason

chamber of commerce, moveon.org and countless other examples of prohibited since a vast amount of the material is legitimate speech and the statute has a few plainly justified applications is overbroad and unconstitutional. >> those examples the uk could be prohibited under the properly joined statute? >> they are prohibitive. >> could they be under the statute that was more narrowly drawn? >> data type of generalized political expression associated could not be. >> the first time around if rejected the spatial challenge and was also dismissed. they were not appealed before the court. it sleeps in so much political expression and association. >> do you think that a statute could target only electoral speech in other words could the statute say that the speech couldn't be worn in the polling place? >> the statute does say that in the first sentence. >> could constitutionally say that if it were limited would be permissible or is it impermissible? >> it is a very close call. >> i don't know whether that line is so close that the statute here is already unchallenged and even assuming tha

business so let's bring in folk attire is the chief economist of the association of german chambers of commerce and industry and is that of course you're the body that represents the german business worldwide with us tariffs now activated does this mean a nightmare scenario has come true for you. we are in the middle of a conflict i would say this is another step having received no new sanctions against iran against russia affected less the american companies more the european and german companies having received some due to this against china and other duties tariffs steel and i'm in your other countries so this is another step and it's a very very in step of course so you say that those tariffs are just part of of a bigger picture of a bigger plan but nevertheless if we break it down those terrorists do have an impact we talk about twenty five percent on steel twenty five ten percent on the million imported were exported from europe to the united states which industry sectors are actually affect it. first of all it will affect. german european steel and the minion producers but they sell thei

this congress is so bought off on both sides, the chamber of commerce, the business round table.have more tonight. >> i don't know how we'll get the border closed, democrats like the cheap votes and republicans like the cheap labor. lou: we have to build the wall and secure the border. if we cannot control our border, there is no way we can control immigration. it's that straightforward. for anyone to pretend otherwise means they have been bought off. because there is no other explanation into the border secured folks on both sides are absolutely corrupt. >> we love immigrants. their the backbone of the country. we love legal immigrants. liberals want the border open. anybody can walk across. but they will choose who can come into a restaurant. >> when it comes to the department of justice turning over those documents, i don't know why donald trump isn't over there demanding they be turned over. and he'sed a builder. he should start the wall. lou: he keeps talking about the border wall having been started with the $1.6 billion. that's not entirely the case. the fact of the matter

national left-wing media lies about it day in and day out and so does paul ryan and so does the chamber of commercepaul ryan and the rest of the guys care. they're not thinking about reelectionses. they're thinking about life after congress. i'm sure they're making ten times more than he was making in congress as a lobbyist on k treat. you want to make the money after you leave, push through amnesty. there will be a reward waiting. and look, i've already started thinking about how i'm going to enjoy myself if my country is destroyed by an amnesty or no wall and the way i'll enjoy it is watching all american business having to live under the policies, the pro-business policies of california. because that's the country you're going to be living under when no republican can get elected. lou: not if john cox gets elected. >> i love him. but california used to give us reagan and nixon because of immigration it cannot elect a republican statewide now. good luck to cox. we'll see what happens. he was great. liked your interview. the point is, businessmen in america, they're doing exactly what lemon said a

the chamber of commerce can be a great resource. second is facebook. it has a lot to offer. we were fortunate enough to be on shark tank. we are part of a shark tank alumni facebook group. it is private and closed. it is other people going through the same progression we are. >> and eo you can join you can join those. next door, chamber of commerce, barriers to especially try can be very little. the other nice thing about it, they tend to be private. by invitation only. they can be constructed that way. the other tip i have is alumni organizations are great. again, they can be very vast. look for the entrepreneur's alumni subchapter. it can be a list serve or facebook group. these are a little more focused in terms of the day-to-day growing of the business. >> i was at dinner the other night and met an incredible woman who built her business in los angeles. i said do you know a lot of other -- we were talking about female entrepreneurs in l.a. she said no. and i was like, ho, let me connect you with some friends. you guys can go to dinner and they will create, in essence, the

the british chambers of commerce, which is made up of organiations representing tens of thousands of p is one of the terms we use. what does it mean? very simple. there are a number of measures, what businesses are investing in, what they are spending, imports, exports. you take that and work out if it is more or less than previously. is more, growth. many things go into it. these figures show there is still growth. but it is getting a bit lacklustre. we have seen major things happening in the economy around business investment and even consumer spending. a big part of what makes that basket of indicators move. we are seeing things slowing down a little bit, especially in the past few months. that is why we are saying there will be growth, but not as strong as it should be or as it could be. what is slowing it? business investment is slowing. there is a lot of hesitation. the members i speak to are saying things are ok, but we are not sure what could be going on in six months, 12 months. for that reason, they are not making investment decisions, or putting them off until things are mo

chamber of commerce raised red flags over the impact of chinese retaliation and the prospect of further escalations the business roundtable a group of corporate c.e.o.'s posted a statement opposing president trump's recent imposition of tariffs on fifty billion dollars of chinese imports to the u.s. walks pressing sympathy for some of president trump's complaints about china's trade policies perhaps the round table opposed what they called quote the administration's misguided focus on temporarily reducing america's trade deficit with china through goods purchased the trumpet ministration previously attempted to float a package of supposedly chinese promises to buy more from the u.s. as they gain from that confrontation only to see if chinese the chinese deny such commitments the chamber of commerce president tom donahue toady similar line saying this is not the right approach and in that regard we now move to a trade war and today we focus on china as we were just discussing and the united states to help us out we're joined by our team is correspondent alex my hyla bitch a trade effort

here's information that we're getting from the santa rosa chamber of commerce, the economy overall is doing pretty well and that's because of some of these recovery projects or the recovery projects that i just showed you because their hotel rooms in the area are being booked by workers and officials who are in town doing work on some of these projects. now the winery traffic has been showing signs of life according to the chamber of commerce here and saying that businesses around the fire zones are still struggling. so we're talking about the businesses such as the larkfield shopping center still struggling because of the wildfires. let's talk about the sonoma area, these are the latest information we're getting from the sonoma chamber of commerce saying october and november were slow months just after the wildfires and business has been picking up since january. now as far as napa valley goes, the fires had no impact on what's called the napa valley fl floor. that's highway 29 and silverado trail. the fire mostly impacted the hillside area. it didn't touch much of the winery, we're
