david stockman. >> the last time mr.stockman was here, to his point, the market was exactly where it is now. it's not like he's missed to the upside or the downside, the market has been trading sideways. my warning signs would be this. if the financials start to roll over in the form of the xlf, if deutsche bank has a new leg lower which it appears it's on the verge of, and if the russell continues to make a move towards the low one teens, then the levels of the s&p are really in play. i think 2140 is the line in the sand. >> i thought your point about divided government was interesting in that history shows that divided governments are actually good for the stock market. >> think we've been burned when president obama had control of everything and then you allow the candidate or the president to be second-guessed. but when you look at what david said, he talked about gdx, gold up 15% in the last two weeks or so, you or i will see infrastructure spent. >> it's so difficult to judge the election, time the election, judge

i think as this plays out in the trump administration, we will have the david stockman moment. people may remember in 1983 when reagan had a very similar set of proposals. he cut taxes, he had a big defense buildup, and he was would not be able to do that. they had been saying they would find additional savings, but those were not going to be available. there was a showdown at the reagan ranch where stockman and weinberger, who was secretary of defense, had a debate in front of the president. stockman raising questions about the defense buildup and affordability. weinberger making his argument about a strong defense. the defense buildup. but as a result, you had very large deficits. i would not be surprised if two years into a trump administration you have the same sort of showdown with whoever is heading o.m.b. and tough questions about purpose of the defense buildup. >> could there be a flashpoint in congress? strong defense is no longer a requirement in the republican party. fiscal conservativism is a the house. how do you see that conflict surfacing and playing out? >> i th

we had david stockman, former reagan budget director on this program last week. take a listen to what he had to say about the economy. >> there's nothing to rescue this economy. we're going to have a recession. i follow the irs, not the bls. the irs tells me how much money they're collecting, ask it's been flat -- and it's been flat and, actually, negative for the last four or five months each on payroll taxes. and that means the economy is long in the tooth, it's slipping into a recession. gary: is he right? >> i think data like that are the state withholding tax data is pretty good data, and it's always been a lot more accurate. i think this economy is not hitting on all cylinders, i think it hasn't been all year. and so i think that has helped, it helped, certainly, the republicans in the election. i think this is, you know, it's a big globe, and there's lots of stuff going on out there beyond just the u.s. economy. and i think that we have to watch what's happening in asia, in china, in europe. and so these things are all going to interplay. but as to whether
