it does not mean that the market will down tomorrow but it does mean that the odds are not, in my opinion, in the investor's behavior. jp morgan hoping that revenue will benefit. hit today.s also manus: it is "daybreak: europe." the theme is rip it up and start again. they say growth will be 1%. 2.3% this year. against the going consensus of the march -- of the market. i quite like what they say, between bond traders and equity traders, apparently they say that bond traders might be more right but of course they are not infallible. it is a really: interesting bearish call. what i would say about the equity market, both of us have observed the fact that that rally has been led by the mega caps, so you can question whether you look low the surface, if the equity market has that much conviction in growth. caps did, maybe the small would not be lagging as much. manus: one sentiment, that it is no longer a currency manipulator, that moniker is gone. break 6.8?, willie -- will it break 6.8? what does a stronger yuan mean for the pboc? let's roll it over because, where the yuan goes, so does the

does bring us things to it themselves. does bring us up—to—date on what's gone in and not gone in.a thumping majority, they cannot do what they like but they are not going to be troubled by the kinds of amendments and changes that the opposition party might want to make. today, in particular, the lib dems try to put down an amendment on erasmus, and lots of people are very interested in this chemotherapy and exchange programme for students, and they try to get the government to put into this legislation the fact that erasmus would continue and prosper, and it would have to do it legally. that amendment no surprise was defeated, but to be clear that does not mean that erasmus is somehow over and press will forever be excluded, it does not mean that it all. meet the government is sticking with the policy what they say is, look it can continue and we will work it out in the future. that's not good enough for some people but if you listening that's or watching this and worried about erasmus, what happened today does not mean it's over and will never take place again. also an amendment

: it does seem more serious than that. seem to bet it does the coronavirus. that family.at sars was part of as well. the death rate is so far lower than sars come and some experts are saying it is not transferred quite as readily as sars, but again, there is that incubation period, which is longer, which means there is a whole lot more unknowns or that is what is causing the uncertainty in markets at the moment. people just don't know how wide could this go. francine: eric pfanner with the latest on the coronavirus. joining us now, kit juckes. and kallum pickering. let me start off with you. if you look at how health officials are trying to do with this, it is positive because we have coordinated action, or do we still not understand enough of it? >> they are deploying all the possible resources, doing it in a coordinated way. he different from 2002, 2003. region,ook at the wider knoll government wants to be seen as not doing enough about this. as you mentioned before, there are plenty of uncertainties. for us, when we look at it from the political side, there are two dim

does it answer how morris is still did his own to name an awful guy and does a 2nd conflicts and no instead just on the most conflict and the man was privileged enough. in demand meaning it's haven't been doing it you can order songs on tag attached and on past attempts month understood as most months dismissed mitten summoned to summon. it to makes me really a furious when corporations maintain. responsibly with people in china to find out the opposite. i'm afraid stay ahead in the textile factory fire radioactive contamination have to react to accept. the notion i have to break into them often mining company there's no way to. say this guy. is up to us and is much. more fun that. was and. that is why i have my dear count on the. keyboard the horizon the pause the rise not just the kids yes it was something i went up to the field designers make tons of it. in here at the price it doesn't investigate as much. undiscounted cmos. if this is due to losing did you know. someone who kept a hunch in the class at the time to try to do sticks and the amount of these any of these to every de

i know he does not think that i take this matter lightly nor does my colleague, the secretary of statehe is of course also right to say that it is right for parliament to have its say. the government wants most of the uk to have 5g coverage within seven years labour wondered how the decision would affect that ambition. part of the reason why the delay would be so long is because huawei has already embedded in our ag network so where is the alternative home—grown suppliers? what is the government doing to build the sector and does the minister accept the chronic lack of investment and leadership from the government has brought us to this situation? and finally what is he doing to ensure that we are never again dependent on foreign powers to secure our critical national infrastructure and security? is it really the case that this is the only firm capable of providing this technology and does this heavy reliance on one company not give them cause for concern in the event of future escalation of political escalation or tensions between the united kingdom and china? thank you mr speaker, of

if he does want to do the job, he does want to do it, does any quiz ever from does want to do it, doesany quiz ever from his speech does want to do it, does any quiz everfrom his speech present does want to do it, does any quiz ever from his speech present which was quite remarkable and it was hard to not feel moved whatever you think of the whole debacle he spoke from the heart there is saying that he has been... this has been for him something that has built for a long time probably before megan, simply one w of the commentators who wrote a very good piece about how he told her years ago he wants to get out. i think the way it is been handled by some clever pr from canada or america or california and they don't really understand that this is not something where you can just do a glossy press release and be quite clever about it. david when you see one piece of pathetic that asks chilli you want to but you are not? stuck away in all the endless coverage not only in the uk, i was in europe last week and it is all over the press in europe and of course in the states and in australia as

this is what donald trump does. he does what everyone sa you can't do that. robert: did he mean to do that? >> it seems quite clear he did mean to do itnd we're quite confident of it at this point. that this is something that had been -a in the quorks for dys and multiple people have at and 40% of the country says this is an aolute brilliant masterstroke. nt 40% of the c is terrified and horrified and somewhere in the middle there are people ut.ing to figure it all >> and the president makes a fair point in saying his predecessors have tried to deal with this issue and failed to solve it. and -- >> classic trump also. >> on north korea and on iran ri he has a new and different approach. and i think that is -- i think od could think that's a go idea to try to be disruptive. the problem is in both of those cases this week, i think w seen the situation become not better for thenited states but more threatening r the united states. robert: and you think, lisa, when heuer at the capital a pending senate impeachment trial. where do those negotiations stand amid tal

does he still believe that? david: he does still believe that but fewer outsiders do. a mystery how he can sustain it given his behavior, but he does. romaine: this is bloomberg. ♪ romaine: a quick recap of some of the earnings. facebook moving a little bit lower. revenue growth up about 25%, the slowest it has posted on record. a little concerned about ad spending as well. tesla also beating expectations. 601 in after-hours trading. this was around 300 a few months ago. sarah: pretty unbelievable. atrosoft 5:30 and tesla 6:30. romaine: some earnings we got this morning were on mastercard. they reported earnings that beat analyst estimates. joining us to talk about this and the space is dan dolev. we also want to talk about square but i want to start with mastercard. they attribute it a lot of their results in the quarter to partnerships in the fintech space, the domain of square, paypal. we are now seeing the bigger payment companies kind of move in. companies, these both mastercard and visa, the next step of growth is coming from partnerships not just in the u.s. but

david: does fisa survive this? have been saying for years and years this is a badly created institution. or court. >> i think it will survive, hopeful whopefully with meaningl changes, like a defender of the constitution, a lawyer in courtroom to challenge -- >> a constitutional ombudsman who would sit be more neutral about the principle and not be the dog in the room. >> i would love that gig. >> i think that carter page like a lot of americans wants accountability, something bad happened. so far we've not seen anyone's head roll. >> they won't. >> you can't blame him for wanting a payday, fisa put him through hell for 3 years over nothing. david: judge andrew napolitano great to have you here. >> thank you. david: democrat say a trump acquittal in senate is not real an acquittal. does this mean they think they lost? we'll ask chad pergram he is live from capitol hill next. managing lipids like very high triglycerides, can be tough. you diet. exercise. but if you're also taking fish oil supplements... you should k

does the shift of focus turn to europe? e.u. the representative hogan over here the last week, there is clearly some progress. we talked to our clients a lot about don't underestimate this president's affinity for tariffs. work andes tariffs they got him a better nafta deal, and they brought china to the table. we can't rule out the risk the president goes back to the tariffs and the threat of adding them. e.u.,k the bottom line is u.s. relations are better than they were last year, but still, you can't rule out escalation. vonnie: does the president have more leverage because he can claim two wins? libby: politically, with the passing of the usmca and the phase i deal, even in terms of iran and the way that has played out in the short-term, he can say these are all unequivocal victories for him. he will continue to talk about these on the campaign trail. honestly, if it is any indication, his approval ratings are near all-time highs. it shows the public thinks he is doing a better job. i envision him as a formidable candidate.

what does that actually mean? what does it actually imply? well, it says that individuals are sovereign over their own lives. and what does it mean to say that you're sovereign over your own life? it means that each and every individual is self-owning and self-governing. and that life is sacrosanct and the right to life also embedded in it is the moral right for each and every individual to pursue those values which promote their lives. all right. what about the right to liberty? what is the right to liberty? the right to liberty means a kind of unobstructed freedom to think, choose, act, produce and acquire both material and spiritual values. it's unobstructed freedom, although constrained by the right to liberty of other individuals. all right. now, the declaration of independence does not include a right -- a natural right to liberty. but i'm going to include it basically because thomas jefferson and the author of the declaration believed that property was just as much a fundamental right as were life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

does it matter if a president has no moral compass? does it matter if a president believes he or she is above the law? does it matter if the president is petty or mean or spiteful? does it matter what the character of the president is? well, i believe the answer to each and every one of these questions is what you think as well, yes. over the course of his presidency, donald trump has proved he believes the answer to each and every one of these questions is no. ladies and gentlemen, in november, america will have a chance to answer the question does the character of a president matter. yes or no. >> let's vote for pocahontas, let's vote for bernie, lets vote for sleepy joe. joe. he always gets the name wrong. how many times has he missed it. he's in iowa, great to be in the great state of ohio, and they say, joe you're in iowa. you can't do that, no matter how great you speak, if you're winston churchill, if you make that mistake at the beginning of your speech, it's over. you might as well just wrap it up. there's the fake news. they

it does not have the force of law. the supreme court found that in the chanda case, concurrent resolutions are unconstitutional as a means to limit the executive branch. for someone that i hear and claim so deeply about the constitution, i think our speaker needs to brush up actually on her facts. let's open it up for questions. yes, sir. >> reporter: mr. leader, the speaker continued to say today that she needs to see more from senator mcconnell on what the trial will look like before she sends the articles. why is that an unreasonable request? why shouldn't leader mcconnell just come out and share what the rules of this proceeding are before she sends the articles? >> did she say that with a straight face? you sat through this impeachment. you watched the speaker of the house deny any rules going forward in the house. you watched the speaker of the house change every history we have when it comes to impeachment. we had a history about how we dealt with clinton and how we dealt with nixon, in a fair process. she chang

president told trump is warning that if it does the u.s. will hit back hard. and the toll from australia's bushfires keeps on rising as criticism of the government's handling of the crisis grows at least 24 people have died in the fires and there's no end in sight. thanks for joining us. the iraqi parliament has voted to end the u.s. military presence in the country some 5000 u.s. troops are serving in different regions of iraq washington sent soldiers there more than 4 years ago to help defeat the so-called islamic state now the baghdad government accuses the u.s. of violating its sovereignty by carrying out a drone strike on its soil a strike killed iran's top general and an iraqi militia leader and u.s. led coalition says it's pausing operations. and for more on this let's go to journalist pressure to get in baghdad what are the implications of this vote and the u.s. led coalition's presence in iraq well it looks like you don't have any immediate effects. there is it legal situation the u.s. forces are in iraq as a result of that it does letter from the ira

what does a phase one deal actually mean for the markets? does it change anything concretely?> the markets have been on and off for so long. to actually get something as a calming of tensions. now the market can actually rise. some areas will continue to lag. have the currency manipulator tag taken away. i would expect the yuan to weaken. they have plenty of room to let it go. they will let the yuan weekend. and then you follow with that. francine: if there is a 10% move in the yuan, will the u.s. take offense? >> i think so. the u.s. administration tilt -- still needs a potential enemy. to continue to polarize people's anger. having a complete piece with china is not there. will be more rounds of volatility. you have to think about what is happening in the market more recently. we moved from panic to euphoria. weakerstarting to see countries like brazil and south africa. picking up steam in the market. the market is starting to be in better shape. 2018 was a big recovery. this year could be more about alpha. this is a chart we made for you that looks at what we are forecastin

this picture, what does this mean for us? >> let me start by thanking peter and the international security program for making this happen quickly. particularly, sharon mentioned, the peter's new book " if you readals, it before this crisis and were worried, read it now. one of the first things i thought of when i heard about god, ande was, oh mygod all those generals are no longer there to offer restraint, wisdom, all sorts of beneficial constraints. as an look at this international lawyer and bring it directly home. somebody who taught international law for 12 years, if summit he had said to me, the united states has just killed and iranian military leader who may or may not have been acting as a diplomat, but on iraq's soil, is that legal? the first thing i do is look at the article of the u.n. charter which says nations cannot use force against the national sovereignty or territorial integrity of any other state. start there. they definitely used force against the national sovereignty of iraq. with nothing else, you start

what does mcconnell want here?hat is the most likely outcome when he does release the process to go forward? >> remember that mitch mcconnell, what he really wants to do is minimize the political pain. whether it's for senate republicans who are fighting in tough battles this year in their re-election bid, for the president, for the broader republican party. what you're going to see and you're right, we have not seen the draft of the resolution -- or that the senate is going to expect to be voted on tomorrow. we're going to -- we're likely going to see parameters that are similar to what we saw for president bill clinton more than two decades ago. but tweaked in certain ways that perhaps -- that are going to be different. now, what sources have told cnn and sources have also told me is that mcconnell's going to try and shrink the number of days for opening arguments from both sides. because, remember back in the clinton days, we had 24 hours each for each side to argue their case. neither side took all of their hou

>> i think it does. you have to look at iowa, new hampshire, white majority states, large majorities. you also have to look at the fact the debate qualifications are to play in a pole. and i can agree with those qualifications but there's palomino been no polls. there were two iowa polls, one south carolina polls. there's been six polls they include as qualifiers. to qualify in a national poll, it doesn't do you any good to campaign in iowa if they're calling people in idaho. and it only benefits millionaires and billionaires who are running, if i might sound like barnes for a second, and the establishment. so i think the dnc has to answer for that. >> lori, do you -- let me put it this way. when julian castro said we ought to change the calendar and not start the whole process for democratic nominee in iowa and new hampshire, which are clearly overwhelmingly white states. it does not reflect the democratic voting base. your reaction to what he said. >> well, i agree because you've seen states over the l

what does that do to these institutions and what does it do to u.s. interests abroad?ou know from your experience in china, morale is a very important element of service. whether it's in the military or in the diplomatic corps, whether you're at an embassy in benghazi or baghdad, you are constantly looking to your colleagues and your leadership back in washington for clarity, consistency and a sense of mission and importance. you are not serving a party. you are not even serving just a president. you believe and you are grown to believe that you are serving the national interest. you are serving america as a country. so for secretary pompeo right now, as you know, there is a big morale problem within the state department. and so when foreign policy events like baghdad happen and, of course, always the unwelcome foreign policy guests at the party, you need these public servants to feel motivated, to feel empowered and to be out there safeguarding our interests. >> does that wound, if you want to call it that, because i agree with you. these public servants, they go abro

thinking why does that finger wagging went viral. and if the women had not been there who knows what happened to the gentleman on the floor ok let's move on this that there is a he said she said all they said they said they're going to say here but that there are genuine fears aside that some think that this idea of this is an amendment act that there's something else that is going to happen after this that it might escalate what are the fields that are driving people onto the street for the a making people like cut the case and you don't understand the facts what are the sins can you have to kill 8 them for me. yes the government intends to do nascar just so so does the. home minister used and said in the parliament what it is and how to see if you're going to see it as it is the same side of one inquiry and yet i don't see both of them ought to be done under citizenship act of $155.00 the national they want to stay out of citizens and then also have a national popular vote just say they don't exist a.f.c.'s as you are concerned tha

it does not seem like your standard article. it is not part of the article three, at what point it -- is it part of the supervisory power to order one branch of the government to turn over materials to another branch? could that be what the supreme court has described to aid the grand jury? implementing the rule six e. ofit speaks in the language authorization of disclosure. and indeed, your own application did not ask for that. >> i guess we will have to hear from mr. freeman. the supreme court says -- >> does the will itself give the district court that authority? >> i need to get the exact language in front of me and i don't have it. remember, this is a rule. what the court have to if you are saying there's a difference? >> there is no grand jury secrecy as there is now because of the rule in the rule provides exceptions to itself, so if it fits, the secrecy would not apply. is justice department housing these, again i just find it unfathomable for the justice department to say there's no legal ground to continue to hold them

how does that affect the administration in beijing, does it move them closer to the u.s.?e: i was there, a group from the u.s. observing the presidential election in taiwan. remarkable to see the exercising of democracy 100 miles away from the chinese mainland. and importantly to think about it was a referendum of china glowing -- growing closer to taiwan. what the election results demonstrated was a strong desire amongst people in taiwan to be closer to free markets, open markets, and free societies like the united states. that for beijing is probably worrisome. the more difficult challenge going forward is how does beijing respond to what happened in taiwan, what do they do not in retaliation, but to express a point of view that this one country, two systems model that they use for hong kong, and would like to use for taiwan, for them to demonstrate that that is a live paradigm. the question will be how china engages. no question, taiwan's economic development, the freedoms it boasts, that is positive for our relationship. david: china takes a long-term view and the hori

what does that look like to you? i think that a phase one trade deal doesn't necessarily put to rest the other technology issues that have become part of the geopolitical landscape. these are not just the two largest economy in the world, they are the economies that have the strongest tech sectors. both governments are focused on the national security implications of technology products. the 5g conversation has become a conversation around national and economic security. i don't think that is going to change because of a phase one trade deal. we should all expect this to be a complicated issue, an important issue, and one that is going to be topical on an ongoing business throughout the decade. taylor: you only get about 2% of global sales from china. i wonder if that has been more of a concerted effort to protect yourself until these issues are resolved? i am thinking ip theft, forced tech transfer. does this perhaps change anything for microsoft's fundamental business? brad: today, the u.s. government has concerns

that.want to do does it in iraq. ow, how anybody could have any doubt about the president's desire, number one, strike at a two, avoid warer i'll never, ever know. the speaker pro tempore: the expired.'s time has mr. burgess: i yield the gentleman an additional minute. mr. cole: i thank the gentleman much. this message sends the wrong message at the wrong time. in a esident has acted restrained manner. he's endured and our country's endless provocation. we should reject this rule. rankly, we should have a regular process where we actually go back to the committee of jurisdiction and we absolutely object the underlying resolution. i conclude, before i do want to mention, because i know my friend is very sincere expanding ions on congressional war power. no doubt in my mind about it. we worked on it before. i look forward to work with my friend on that issue again. the wrong vehicle at the wrong time. the wrong consequences for our this kind of s legislation. with that i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlem

>> it most definitely does. there's little question about what that is in my mind, if it's actually a valid video, which we have validated it as cnn, so it does. >> all right. so that's what it is. now we get into what was it, and how did this happen. general marks, the idea of iranian capabilities, spider, could they have done this? >> oh, absolutely. they have the sa-15, which is a russian-made surface to air missile, made in the early '80s, not particularly overly sophisticated, but it has some capabilities to go after particularly, you know, cruise missiles is why it was developed, which means it has some incredible maneuverability. bear in mind by comparison, this is a slow-moving, ascending commercial aircraft with passengers. >> right. that takes us to the next question, and david, weigh in once i get the take from spider here. how do you make this mistake? do you not know what the plane is? does the thing launch itself? i mean what are the variabilities here that make it something other than, let's shoot

what does the china-u.s.l mean for germany and particularly german manufacturing? if i think about characterizing the phase one deal, it is essentially a massive purchase agreement between the u.s. and china. if you look at the sections around intellectual property, currencies, they are all very small, and more than half of the deal is just dedicated to these purchase amounts, which the chinese are meant to buy off the u.s. and unfortunately, what that means is, to look at manufactured goods, for instance, the biggest loser out of that, potentially, is germany, and france as well. the one big category is aircraft. what does that mean?who is the other single biggest producer of aircraft in the world? it is europe. it means the chinese will have to buy more american goods. so i am worried about the impact termsl have in europe in of the chinese purchases of the u.s., and of course you mentioned brazil, which is a big agricultural exporter. tom: i was stunned at the back of your note on brazil and soybeans as we

it does not mean the market will go down tomorrow but it does mean that the odds are in my opinion in the investors' favor. matt: fit and focused. can the former maintain its dominance when it comes to fixed income currencies and commodities? we are just an hour were away from the start of cash equity trading. let us take a look at future us. daxave green arrows here on futures and ftse futures and cap futures. we are looking at gains of about ..2 per -- 0.25% green arrows in the u.s. futures picture although they are not quite a strong with the exception -- in general, they are not as strong. i can only see some small gain. what are you seeing? : more of that howard marks interview later. what we are getting through from u.k. corporate -- the companies reporting. period aftering the last few months of 2019. a slight upgrade. more on the gaming sector as well. let us talk about what is going on on the gmm. things are looking mixed. asian stocks moving moderately higher. yesterday in the u.s., we saw the s&p and the nasdaq hit all-time highs. we have can it last as those words of howar

he does not like markets selling off as well. he would strike a balance i imagine between the iran story and also keeping market sentiment in an election year. your thoughts about that? i agree. this is trump's one great achilles heel, if you will. he is trying to shake everything up. if you are looking at china, with iran, with north korea. at the same time he expenses -- he expects equity prices to rise and thinks the market is a reflection of what's going on on main street, which of course it is not. that is a real quandary. we have seen him be incredibly aggressive and then suddenly do something completely unexpected to put the markets up. i will say if he continues to rattle sabers like this, you are going to see the federal reserve cut rates in 2020, something we expect them to be doing. that will give markets a lift. the key points i want to underline for viewers is that a push comes to shove and something terrible were to happen on the geopolitical front , god for bid it should and i don't think it will, but if it will, f

for what purpose does the gentleman from new york seek recognition? mr. delgado: madam speaker, i have an amendment at the desk. the chair: the clerk will designate the amendment. the clerk: amendment number 7 printed in part b of house report 116-366 offered by mr. delgado of new york. the chair: pursuant to house resolution 779, the gentleman from new york, mr. delgado, and a member opposed each will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from new york. mr. delgado: thank you, madam speaker. today i am pleased to offer this bipartisan amendment to strengthen this legislation aimed at addressing pfas contamination in our communities. right now communities in upstate new york continue to struggle with the impacts of pfas contamination in drinking water. residents are living every day with the impacts of pfos contamination. which we know include thyroid disease, birth defects, auto immune disorders -- autoimmune disorders and cancer. last year emily, who now lives with her family, testified before the energy and commerce committee about h

so what does organic promise make of such in small ball harvest up down. your god was it one going to go. quite that it does not it took it did a beautiful same turn it is obvious that it yeah they put it with such and such like that using sound images you don't have to be fully literate to use it so what does mr ray do who helped plan such as jenny think of the prototype i pleasure of having a lot of this valuable input from you i got it it was in your own population and i like it i think it was a very exciting opportunity and i hope that you're going to launch a pilot with us then i can give you a bit of feedback up for we got to the point now that i've shown the obvious and good to 6 people and they're all in the present different stakeholders so right now i am very happy with the world which has happened for the feedback. and there's a lot of detailed feedback which i've got. on video i want to work on so from here i want to develop this obligation make it more robust and they get through the file it's called science and make it something you know it c

it does, but people still feel that way. i thought, i know how people can take part in this and i know how people can mobilize. everyday american people can take part in fighting for our country. i wrote them a handbook. this is an expanded version of an email that i wish i had time to sit to every person. this is the expanded version of my answer. host: we have some calls lined up. we will start off with tim in toledo, ohio. democrat line, you are on with our guest. there we go. i just want to say, i am a news junkie and i consider myself kind of a conservative democrat or a liberal republican, because i think some people have valid points on both sides. youthe one american news, are like dealing with my ex-wife. you say a half-truth to perpetuate a lie. say -- trump does some good things, too, but he tears this country up part with his hate speech. -- country apart with his hate speech. one american news seems to demonize the one-party and elevate the other, and compromise is the magic word. the tit for tat garbage, that i

what does it look like out there?ll these candidates, they're really heading into crunch time, making their arguments in the three days before the iowa caucuses. and what joe biden has been aiming to do is create this matchup between himself and president trump. over the past few days he's been trying to draw this contrast with trump in value sets and leadership style arguing that character is on the ballot. take a listen to a bit of his argument he's giving to voters in these final days before the caucuses. >> welcome to donald trump's world. up is down, lies are the truth, allies are enemies, everything is through the looking glass. joe biden's america, the president's tax returns won't be a secret. political self-interest will not be confused with the national interest. and no one, not even the president of the united states will be above the law. >> in an interview this morning, joe biden says he feels the race here in iowa is going to be very close. noting that tight polling between himself and bernie sanders. an

does it matter?stors are may be under appreciating some of the risk in relying too much on the benefits of the duopoly. if you play this out down the road, i think boeing will have to come out with the successor to the 737. there is been so much scrutiny over the initial decision to retrofit the older model they will have to go down that path. airbus will have to respond. airbus is in a position where it can afford to do that. you're still talking about billions of dollars. that is a lot. alix: it also raises the question, to your point, it does not matter if there is two, how many companies that airlines we will see moving from boeing? brooke: i think you are right. airbus has a backlog of six years. lale: capacity has such a long tail. alix: it is not that easy. brooke: and they do not want to. if you shift all of your orders to airbus airbus has too much power. china is trying to develop a home champion. even if they just take that china development, that is where a lot of demand is for planes. if

does that shake your confidence in the durability of the expansion? it does not. i guess i'm a little surprised by the week number. manufacturing has been struggling. it has been contracting recently. i think the train policy uncertainty has been part of that. the gm strike was part of that. it is over. one thing that has been good for ,he economy is with gdp growth in looking for 2% to 2.25% 2020 and a strong labor market benefiting the consumer. we think the economy can continue to grow even when manufacturing is contracting a little bit. i think we have a resilient economy. michael: why is manufacturing contracting? is this a self-inflicted trade war wound? charles: obviously the auto industry has plateaued the previous year. it has been softer. you had the gm strike. that impacted suppliers. i think the trade tariffs on agricultural has had an effect. we have not exported as much soybeans and pork. the farmers are struggling. they are not buying as many heavy equipment pieces. that has been a problem. i think not knowing exactly where your supply chains might

does he represent?an valu collin: well, he is our president, and i haven't taken any positionn the peachment proceedings. i do not think i am qualifiedo speak to that. what i have seen with president trump is silar to what dr. land talked about. many evangelicals, like myself, who had been skeptical of him, actually saw he's actually turned out to be, in some ways, better than we expected. 'nd, at the same time, many of the things that were discouraged by, some of his racially charged comments and some of his -- well, basically his constant twitter presence, t are things tre well known to everybody who voted for him last time around. in that sense things haven't changed. i do not oppose him in that regard. i think the bible very clearly calls us to vote -- excuse me, not to vote but to pray for , those people in office, whoever they might be, and ultimately to trust them for the outcome. my main concern is the perception of white evangelicalp as a sort tisan part of the republican party, essentially the

that actually should be what they're arguing it does depend. it can be abuse of power depending on the facts. but that the not what they're arguing on the floor of the senate. so what we just saw was jay sort of saying well, maybe we'll present both positions. >> o'donnell: what is the argument that the hooing think to cwn whether there's one more vote to have additional witnesses. because i believe it will come down to this idea of intent, what of his reason behind this. we talk a lot about removal, 67 votes but really if we bring in john bolton, potentially other witnesses to have a conversation about, listen, i know what the president was about up to here because i spoke to him or here are my notes. john bolton took careful notes. it could change the trust of this entire process. couple more things which is, as a legal matter we have to keep in mind that the withholding of the aid was we know now a violation according to the g.a.o. of the law and alan wine tribe of the federal election economic tweeted that soliciting campaign foreign interv

she does have this conviction.his case. we believe she did not get a fair trial, we believe there were systemic flaws in the way this case was handled from day one, soi this case was handled from day one, so i would support an appeal, but i think it is positive that she is going home because she is in a fragile psycho geological state, she has been to a terrible ordeal and needs all the help she can get. -- psychological. is this case is unique in cyprus? it is unique in terms of the international dimension and in terms of how much publicity it has received, but it is not unique in terms of police handling and criminaljustice unique in terms of police handling and criminal justice handling unique in terms of police handling and criminaljustice handling of cases related to violence against women. i think that this case has brought to the surface though systemic flaws that have existed for many years and have resulted in in an enormous gender justice many years and have resulted in in an enormous genderjustice gap in

and nowhere does -- as i recall -- does he talk about congressional investigations, which as we know for many decades have been enforceable in courts, and nowhere -- >> this is an impeachment investigation. it's not a legislative investigation. >> so it's even more important. right? thank you for reminding me of that. it's even more important -- >> it's more important but more of a political question. >> oh, i don't think so, your honor. what the walter nixon case said was a political question, the courts can't tell the senate how to conduct a trial. that's totally different from saying, the supreme court has set up this thing called rule 6-e imposed secrecy on grand jury -- >> this 6-e is in the heartland of our experience, right? >> absolutely. >> we supervise the grand jury. >> i'm making a point that cuts against you, it's different. it's a different sort of power that's being exercised by the courts than is the larger issue that you're speaking to about whether congress can resort to the courts to ep force -- to get information from the executive. >> we also subpoenaed, we issue

and how effective does our military, does our cia, does our state department think these responses will be? next question what is this action mean for the long-term stability of iraq? what is it mean towards our presence in iraq? and what does it mean to the trillions ofnd dollars, trillions, and thousands of american lives sacrificed there. how does what we are doing now fit into that? how does the administration plan to manage any excess escalation of the hostilities? and how does the administration plan to avoid a larger and endlesshe conflict in the middle east? these are crucial questions and not one has been answered by the president or anyone it administration people all of the tweeting, a all of the bravado is no substitute for strategic thinking and long-term foreign policy goals and ways to achieve those goals. this administration seems to be devoid of that. it certainly was when it came to north korea. certainly was when it came to see it syria, it certainly is when it comes to russia, and it seems likely the same case is now occurring with iran. the questions that i have men

does reflect the changes in power. from tom beckett early on friday morning. where is the strategy? you go right into this and that there needs to be a recapitulation, a reinvigoration of an american strategy on the broader middle east. dr. bremmer: there is more of a pivot from the middle east. i do believe that the -- tom: can we afford to leave the middle east? dr. bremmer: a lot more than our allies can afford us to leave the middle east, both in europe and the middle east. when the saudi's were hit by iran, they were so stunned that the united states did not did -- did not do anything to back them up that they started negotiating with the iranians directly. that was the interesting take away. east is clearly going to be a more unstable place going forward. how much of that is going to affect the global marketplace is likely to be reduced because the u.s. is producing much more of energy. francine: if the u.s. can afford to leave the middle east, with russia -- would russia or china not take its place? dr. bremmer:

well know this does accord if not the timing at least the nature of the targets of this attack it does accord with the message that we're getting from the israeli security establishment the israeli government in a security cabinet briefing that took place on monday leaks from that briefing suggested that the prime minister benjamin netanyahu was stressing to his cabinet colleagues that this was an american attack on syria money albeit one that he said the americans had every right to carry out in trying to preserve their own right of self defense and also leaks from that city cabinet meeting suggesting that the briefing coming from israeli intelligence was that any immediate strike back by the iranians would target u.s. interests in the region and not israel of course what is of concern here is what happens next if there is a further u.s. retaliatory response to this attack in the early hours of this morning israeli time then there are indications coming from iranian news agencies quoting the i.r.g.c. saying that haifa a major port city in israel in northern israel would be one of the

so what does he want. that's not clear to me still. what does it mean for how the president sees his re-election strategy, message? we showed senator warren earlier. we see the democratic race somewhat scramble by this entire episode. senar sanders in the latest des moines register poll. vice president biden underscoring his>> experience. ome of the candidates have gone to the wag the dog line. the one thing -- derobert: saying the pre did this on purpose to distract from impeachment. >> i think it may wl have had that effect. we came back from the holiday break focused on being on the prisspiss of war on y -- precipice war. trdon't think he's a master of strategic dtion. >> just a master of distraction. >> not as intentional as people like to give him credit for. but what was bt interesting was the preside is generally anti-intervention. right? that was something he ran on. does have this fine line where a lot of hisupports feel that way as well. a lot of people at his rallies, sons and daughters w are serving overseas. in talking to

if they do tie, what does this mean?chief justice roberts would be the tiebreaker, but he doesn't have to be. >> as to the first point, i think the most interesting thing to me about senator alexander's move is there are two things that he did. one, he essentially said a week ago we were all saying this did not happen, it could not have happened, there was no quid pro quo. now we are all conceding it happen, but it is not bad. i think it is really important to see how the marker has shifted, that it seems a week ago, we were arguing the fact, maybe the fax did not happen, maybe it did not happen the way it is alleged. with bolton's two allegations, i think everybody now stipulates it happened, it was really bad. and we have seen in this -- this is profound -- alan dershowitz saying, well, it is ok, presidents do it all the time as long as the president wanted to influence the election because he believed it was in the good of the country, that it is perfectly fine. republicans in the senate fell in line. i want to be sup
