liz: eric your reaction?ook, we have the best economy now under this president i can't imagine a stronger component or piece of evidence on be half of democracy than the greatest economy and the most powerful economy in this country in the world and frankly, so i think that this is pure politics , he's trying to play to the base, and this is just it's ludacris to me. liz: do we forget what they did, curt? >> oh, no, we don't. look, liz this guy, like me, is a veteran but he does not speak for veterans what he's saying is disgraceful and dishonest. it's really appalling that someone would say things like that and expect to get votes. that's a heck of a lot more about his party than it does about anything else. liz: you guys have been great today and so great you came on eric and curt. curt i'm told you can pre-order your upcoming book, on amazon, so guys check it out when it comes out thank you, curt and eric for coming on. the media now criticizing conservative writer and filmmaker's pardon by president trump

i spoke to eric swalwell about this earlier.general found that james comey gave reason to be fired by being insubordinate and usurping guidance by the department of justice, how does that put together, and how do we know that the firing of james comey overall was the right thing to do in retrospect? >> the irony is that president trump may by obstruction be james comey in this report. the inspector general said to come i'm not going to make assumptions about how bias may have influenced the outcome. i haven't found any documentary evidence that shows that that was a result. that was basically the argument of the trump team. there were legitimate reasons to do what he did. that is exactly what the inspector general decided today, there were legitimate reasons for what he did and he won't make assumptions of any violations of law. >> martha: thank you so much. up next, a veteran journalist provokes a head-scratcher about president trump. >> with all these tweets and all that other stuff, he may have some idea what he's doing. >> m

so eric holder is the antithesis of that. that could rev republicans up in an effort to defend those court decisions and those judgeships they filled. >> and azi, any sense of the role president obama will play in the midterms? >> it's clear that obama is not happy with a lot of what is coming out of the white house. and he's tried to sort of inspire his coalition into action rather than just be on the sidelines criticizing. how much involved is unclear, but having people like holder sort of step forward and raise issues like redistributing and gerrymandering will be part of what obama could be doing, which is focusing attention and getting voters out to the polls. >> azi pajbarah, thank you so much. and julia manchester, thank you so much. >>> i'm dara brown, thanks for watching. at the top of the hour, "politics nation" with al sharpston. but stay with us, "your business" is coming up next. i feel a great deal of urgency... i think, keep going, and make a difference. at some point, we are going to be able to beat als. becau

eric: we have built some suspense. what is the company?n: a china-based for-profit education company. inc: anyone who invests chinese equities is probably famiar with childhood education. carson: this is a $26 billion company. you say is a fraud. ,arson: it is a real business but it's profits are fraudulent. stockou look at the price, some people might say it is institutionalized, why would they do this? i would point to the value of the chairman's holdings. three year his holdings were only worth about $900 million. today they are getting close to $8 billion. to be clear, it is a real business with real students and real learning centers. it is not able to grow nearly as profitably as it has been portraying. eric: there is a distinction. it is important to make this point. there is a distinction to be drawn between this kind of fraud , and we will get into the details of your thesis, and some of the other frauds you have exploded -- exposed, which you have described as zeros. there was nothing there, empty offices, nonexistent businesses.

eric cantor is the former republican house majority leader and eric, it's an election year as it is soouse. but this time around people are really watching this the midterms, a lot of activity that's been around it. what's your read on what's potentially happening? >> it's sort of an unprecedent situation now where we've got such a great economy unemployment is almost nil you've got that going on but you've also got a president whose approval ratings are, you know, sort of staying in there, hanging in there at 40%. so there's a huge gap between economic optimism and directionally people are happy with where the country is going. i don't know in recent times whether we've had that so then that brings up the question of what is going to be that in outcome. >> usually it's the economy and that dictates everything >> right and this year it could be is it just about the president and whether this is a referendum on the president, not the economy >> we've heard from some republicans who said we have farmers suffering from trade things but we're still standing behind how this plays out. >> le
