congressman cramer has not scored very well, to be honest with you. he is in the c minus or d range. we just decided he is not somebody that club for growth will put its endorsement behind. our members expect us to do that. we interviewed them all. we do research other background and their votes. it would be a miscue to the members about if he is a real conservative or not. susan: the club for growth and tariffs are antithetical to each other. you are a free market organization. would you talk about the impact of the president's tariff policies on individual districts and what you see problems for people? alcorn, indiana where is one where the industry is worried about the impact of the local economy. how do you see that playing out? david: you have named one. i have seen examples in missouri, where it is a close race. essentially it is the steel and aluminum tariffs that are increasing the cost of input for a lot of american companies that use steel and aluminum, like they do for rv's. a company in missouri is a nail manufacturer. they had to lay off

to me, what's really important about micron is this is the most cyclical company and i heard jim cramer trading at four times earnings that's for a reason and you don't buy it, because you think it's on the cusp of the cycle and if the cycle turns we know what happens at the end of 2014 to its lows in 2016, the stock sold off 75%. i think what's really important about these semi downgrades over the last couple of days. it's a combination of a lighter supply and a tighter supply and a little less demand and you put those things together and you don't want to own a stock that trades at four times earnings that's up 3,000% over the last couple of years. >> right you had a great call on it >> the semis in general, and i give you credit, but you're right about the cycle. the cycle can last for quite some times and these have pulled back 30% >> the downside part of the cycle can last for a period of time we saw a massive shift down lower from the time it began to where it ended and i look at some of the names that have already been -- i don't want to have d risk. you can see a trading bounce
