there is a thing happening like the david brooks column that say you are going too far to the left and is undertheorized. i think there is a similar instinct happening on the left part in which people convinced themselves that everything they want stub staubstantively is go politics. everything morally correct is good politics. it's good politics to passe new deal and to do medicare for all and forgive student loan debt. that's what the voters are clamoring for. >> and the polling is a mile wide and inch deep. it's like go out and actually try to pass that thing and see what happens to the polling on medicare for all when you have a knock down drag out fight. >> it's a question of are you going to put your finger in the wind and see where people are or lead and change where people are at in the future? >> and do they understand what you are talking about? i think -- >> in some ways the ambiguity helps people. people think it's going to be emotional. >> it's also what we understand. part of the problem with the debates was it wasn't clear what anybody was talking about. if you say, for

this evening so how will the candidates take on the trump economy joining us right now is brookings institution davidirector of the fiscal and monetary policy. and heritage foundation's stephen moore. david, tell us what you think happens here, who do the candidates take on the trump economy? >> i think they say two things one is obviously the economy is doing pretty well. but a lot of people aren't feeling it so they'll be speaking to people who feel insecure, people who have a lot of student loan, worried about health insurance costs. people in communities that aren't doing very well and secondly they'll say the economy is doing okay now, but president trump is ruining it with this -- with the trade wars and inconsistent policies towards the middle east and incompetence in government and try to paint him as reckless and endangering the strong economy that we have now and they'll say he inherited from barack obama. >> david, do you think the old adage works in this election this time around it's the economy, stupid. >> it's a really good question on one hand, the economy always matters. i think if t

david: the third company we are looking at is boeing, unfortunately for boeing. brooks. i almost -- two brooks to brooke -- sutherland. i almost couldn't believe this when i read it. brooke: no one could. many fronts, not only is this another issue with the plane, but also just on the transparency front, that this had to come out the way it did. there's been a lot of questions about why it is taking so long for boeing to submit a fix for that mcat system. they first said they would have that by the end of march. it doesn't make you feel a lot more comfortable to get back on that airplane, nor does it make me really trust boeing. david: at some point, one wonders is this just a coincidence? structural inhing the aircraft that makes it prone to these kinds of problems? courtney: i think it is getting harder and harder --brooke: i think it is getting harder and harder for boeing to say they don't need a successor for the max 737. i don't know how you can stand behind that at this point, given all of the questions people have and if they are comfortable getting on this airp

david: as a practical matter, can he really stop this? brookehe stock, so i am not sure what he can do. he says he is willing to come out publicly and he think she will have support from a majority of shareholders. i'm not sure about that. stocks were up on news of the raytheon deal. then the shares came down even further when ackman came out against the deal. i don't know if this is a swell of shareholder angst against the company. i think he may be very isolated in his you of raytheon as an inferior -- in his view about raytheon as an inferior business. they are perceived as sort of being be better, stronger company here. alix: specifically he warned about united technologies' exis ting aerospace business and lowering the quality, so how does that square? brooke: they are different businesses, and i guess you could make the argument that he worries about defense spending going forward, and does he see the support for ongoing revenue growth, but i think it's technology is higher value. they are generally perceived as being a great company. if y
