david: harry truman. charlie: harry truman, the one that you know well. vid: he never went to college, but he never stopped reading history. he said the only new thing in the world is the history you don't know. and now, with our 45th president, we have a leader who doesn't know much of anything in the way of history, and who has said so. charlie: he said he does not read biographies. david: he dismisses biographies books, reading, and history. let my feelings about the importance of history, as you said, go back several decades. that is what this book is a collection of. i think we must encourage, stimulate, and bring history theeh its importance in whole system of education. charlie: a couple of things. werehower said the there four key qualities to measure a leader by. character, ability, responsibility, and experience. david: and dwight eisenhower wrote one of the very best books ever written about the second world war. charlie: let's talk about that. i don't have any reason to be able to contradict that, but i am surprised. david: no, he did. charlie:

ashman. >> david: the last time we were here was the day general flynn was fired. >> harris: is that true? if you're in washington and you see these two together, watch out. welcome. let's get to the news. the white house dealing with red-hot accusations. "the new york times" reporting that former director comey wrote a memo saying that president trump had asked him to ease up on flynn. the white house says the president has never asked comey to end an investigational including any investigation involving general flynn. this is not an actual portrayal. earlier, speaker of the house said politics may be at play here. watch. >> we have an allegation to carry out our oversight regardless of which parties and the white house. that means we get all the pertinent information. at the house overnight site reforms committee requested this memo, and i'm sure will going to want to hear from mr. comey as to why, if this happened as he allegedly describes, why he didn't take action at the time. there are a lot of unanswered questions. >> harris: the ranking democrat on the house oversigh

are. >> harris: one former president obama said things are going to change in a recent fashion, when he said that to the russian leader, what was he talking about when did he get done? >> david it was, it didn't work. our relationship was terrible with them. that's why president trump is laying out very clearly, here is where america is, work only find common ground and where we disagree? >> harris: that we know that dr. kissinger is also the white house and that there was some sort of pass in the hallway or the oval office between him, lavrov, there's pictures, we're waiting to see those. >> kennedy: i think it's interesting timing and i don't think it's accidental. this is the president's way of saying i've done nothing wrong, i'm going to meet with whoever i want to need time because an innocent person would have no problem meeting with russia. when i think about this and to david's point, we talk about the relationship between the two countries and met romney pointed out that russia was our greatest strategic foe in 2012 during a presidential debate and president obama condescendingly said that they want their foreign policy back. the pickle we are in with russia right n

david: ethan harris, take a step back for a moment.modities still the indicator -- are commodities still the indicator of growth, or has economy around the world changed? >> they have been a good barometer in the past of what is going on in china, so china is driving a lot of these commodity markets. it has always been episodic with commodities. there are periods where there is a demand-driven market. were they are telling you the global economy is overheating. it just seems to me right now, we are in one of those environments where the supply story is dominating. it is about inventories and not about, is there a big strengthening or weakening in industrial production? it is episodic. jonathan: two ethan's point -- to ethan's point, is it -- >> we are deficit territory in terms of inventory drives. the chinese economy may be slowing down a bit, but the turnaround he happened in the conference industry -- but the turnaround already happened in the copper industry. for every dollar putting, a costs more to get the material out. copper, w
