nobody cares about the legacy more than henry kissinger in government than kissinger. he is brilliant and is an absolutely beautiful writer so if you combine those. in those places to be plugged in and i understand that completely but when it comes to being close to those across the country in vietnam that is something i take very very seriously to put men and women in harm's way you have to give more than just theoretical answers you have to look parents in the eye to say we are pursuing a policy of national interest and we took this path and the full debate and we came to you and you said yes none of that took place we have to have that full and frank discussions. we are a brilliant theorist but a vietnam in practice it was very different. . >> b will start taking your questions. >> please identify yourself. >> i'm a graduate student of the international school of economics in moscow. this is a very controversial topic so i thought this was a very interesting theory and kissinger had that irritating tendency to focus on the great man that form policy managed on great

while henry kissinger is fairly optimistic a trade deal can get leaders speak out at bloomberg's new economy form. an almost certain hard brexit, liberal politician peter mandelson brexit some form of hard brexit while theresa may's cabinet meets in secrecy us a dust to look at options for the brexit deal. david: it's election day, finally. i'm david westin with alix steel. polls are open and just remind seats in the35 house, all the house of representatives and then 36 seats -- 35 senate seats, 33 which is one third plus two special elections and then 36 governorships that are up. alix: there are two numbers you care about. david: the democrats need to take 23 additional seats in the --se and two in the magenta two in the senate. production asng they will take the house and not the senate. alix: president trump talking about voter fraud. he waslate in the thing saying they're going to start to steal this election. it was out yesterday saying all you have to do is take a look around at what's happened over the years we will see there are , lot of people, based on proof there is water

henry kissinger, the former new york mayor, it is his event, he is company has put this event togetherchinese vice president was a key speaker and he said that china is willing to speak to the us to find a resolution to the trade row everyone is talking about. xi jinping spoke yesterday at the china international import expo and he reiterated what we heard xijinping say, that china isa we heard xijinping say, that china is a champion of globalisation and free trade and crucially he said they are committed to opening up their market. but to hear from two of china's top rows in two days suggests one thing, that they are immensely worried about this trade row. many of the trade partners are worried also. chief amongst them australia. i spoke to the former prime minister of australia and he had this to say. the key thing, in all of our engagements with beijing and washington, is to be able to say to both of them, quite directly, political leaders, business leaders, think tank is, that it is possible to carve a rational way through this and secondly it can be done if the us agrees in turn o

the day was speaking to henry kissinger who said the u.s. step on each other's toes but the challenge is to remain in they cooperative -- remain in a cooperative relationship. tom: thank you so much. a data check now. not much going on in the markets. futures that negative seven. , not much talk about $100 a barrel in the last seven days. roger angell is iconic within the writing of baseball and he -- here is roger angell. long way fromthe my hot certainty. i am 98 now, legally bind -- legally blind. i was never in combat but now i am. if you do not vote, they have won and you are a captive. it says it all, doesn't it? marty: it does. one of the greatest sports writers that has ever been. divideu look at the deep that we have seen, that the team have written on. what has changed? marty: nothing has changed much. this is when undecided voters cannot be undecided anymore. they have to click their choice of republican or democrat. tom: we decided in your not to talk to big voices. we are going to talk to a republican operative and eight democra

richard nixon, henry kissinger, the order of the day was detente. when gerald ford became president after nixon resigned, he refused to meet alexander solzhenitsyn because of fears of offending the soviet union. jimmy carter gave a speech at notre dame in which he talked about overcoming our, quote, inordinate fear of communism. and then, this is absolutely the dominant mode of thinking in both parties. carter, then in 1977, ronald reagan is a former governor, he has not declared for president yet, they are talking about foreign policy, and he said, would you like to hear my theory of the cold war? my theory is simple. we win and they lose. himquestion is, what gave whatever it was, the courage, so selfght, how did he confidently place himself in opposition to the entire mindset? >> he was not just being facetious as some people accused him of the time. i have aas saying is, strategy which is not just or allowing a moral equivalency between marxism and freedom. it is a matter of knowing their vulnerability, both from an ideological standpoint and ec

you have the likes of henry kissinger, hank paulson, the former mayor of new york mike bloomberg. together and the keynote speech delivered right here was in china's vice president, who said it essentially that china was committed to finding some sort of resolution to the trade war with the united states and what is really crucial is that he pretty much i cared what his boss president xi jingping said yesterday in shanghai, at the china international import expo. xijingping at the china international import expo. xi jingping reiterating at the china international import expo. xijingping reiterating that china is a champion for globalisation and free trade and that china would start to open up its markets to foreign investment. what is really interesting in hearing from these two top brass in the chinese government at these international forums the chinese government at these internationalforums in the chinese government at these international forums in the space of two days, it pretty much suggests one thing, that they are incredibly worried about this china/ us trade spats and th

henry kissinger tells, he can always get a meeting at the white house or with a buddy feedback theredifference of getting a meeting and being in power and rubberstamping. favors to the tune of $25 the mac a man. >> hallelujah. i have a news alert now. acute former trump campaign comment for found guilty of several financial crimes of breaching his plea agreement by lying to investigators home in a four light about stuff. the new come -- president from a strike against the final report. questioning why special counsel did not interview hundreds of people from the pain. happy to talk. how will this all play out? let me take it back to the panel. morgan, i go to you for the mac talking to some of my friends on the i.c.e. today. break this down. why did this happen. mueller potentially did not know the full scope of what manafort was up to. a mid-level guy. the mid-level guys please office stuff. then once you start going the mid-level guy was actually the one who wasn't charged. incredibly weird to have an incident where you get a plea deal from somebody. >> they are saying he did not l

interesting henry kissinger pointed out perhaps the u.s.we have today is not the china we had 20, 30 years ago. it is much bigger, much stronger. china can challenge the u.s. economy. something to think about when it comes to the u.s. singapore was asked about u.s. commitments in asia, whether the u.s. is retreating. his comment is that the u.s. is not retreating, but reviewing its relations with asia, the rest of the world. a lot of talking points at the new economy forum. david: if anyone knows it, it is henry kissinger. janet yellen, what are we hearing from her? you are right, she is talking about the future of stability, financial stability in the markets. it is a huge issue here. we are seeing a buildup of debt and that is an emerging risk not just for the u.s., but the rest of the world. not sure the fed has the tools to cope with the new emerging risk. my fed has been focused on grow, not macro. pertinent toic asia is the trickle down effect of the fed movement on emerging economies in this part of the world, the likes of indonesia.

china's leaders don't know how to deal with this, so they try to talk to henry kissinger, they try to talk to the heads of financial companies concern. lou: the establishment. wall street has been carrying out what the vice president referred to as a lobbying exercise, calling wall street and american ceos participating in the chinese call or for discussions and talks unregistered foreign agents. and, by god, that's exactly what they are, and kudos to the vice president for saying it exactly the way it is. >> yes. and, you know, we saw that september 16th meeting in beijing before the hid terms. obviously, the chinese were trying to use the heads of the big financial -- lou: they still are. >> finish against the united states, and it didn't work. lou: well, it hasn't worked so far only because the ceos didn't take them up on the offer, but they dispa patched their -- dispatched their minions from their banks and firms. you know, this is an ugly thing. we're watching propaganda being organized against this president's policies. we're watching the establishment try to subvert the presid

they try to talk with henry kissinger for the heads of financial companies. >> wall street has been carrying out with the vice president referred to as lobbying exercise, calling wall street participating in the chinese call for discussions on registered foreign agents. that's what they are. kudos to the vice president for saying that the way it is. >> we saw that september 16 meeting before the midterms. the chinese were trying to use the heads against the united states and it didn't work. >> it hasn't worked so far because the ceos didn't take them up on the offer. but they dispatch their minions in some cases from the seed level offices of their banks and firms. this is an ugly thing were watching. were watching propaganda being organized against the president's policies. watching the establishment try to subvert the president's policies on china in international trade. the idea this stuff that has been circulating from the establishment whether said chamber of commerce, wall street, we need quick wins after the midterms. the president have us a quick win. he won the senate. he is accompl

so, richard nixon, henry kissinger, the day of ditente, jimmy carter and gerald ford coming after he resigned, refusing to meet people because of defense of the soviet union, giving a speech of overcoming our fear of communism, and then, this is absolutely the dominant mode of thinking. in both parties, nixon, carter, and then of course we have dig alan's famous account, ronald reagan in 1977 is a former governor he has not declared for government yet talking about foreign policy and ronald reagan says would you like to hear my theory of the cold war? >> of course governor. >> my theory is simple, we went, and they lose. the question is, what gave him, whatever it was, the courage, the insight, how, how did he so self confidently place himself in opposition to the entire mindset? well, he was not just being facetious as some people confused him at the time as that became known, but actually what he was saying is, i have a strategy which is not just giving in, or, allowing a moral equivalency between marxism and freedom, it is a matter of knowing, that they have vulnerability both fro

there -- they are dealing with the henry kissinger's and hank paulsons of the world.there is profound discontent with their trading practices. let's put aside the trade war, we talk length about that every day but if you look at what is going on structurally, how much of that can be blamed due to the external forces and how much as i suspect you will comingre the chickens home to roost? christopher: very little of what is happening in china and be blamed on the trade war. if you look at the drop in credit growth that we have seen over the past year, that is about 30 times larger than the impact on the trade war. that having much larger impact than anything donald trump can do. i think there is a lot of concern in china that this is -- the slowing of credit growth has had an impact on asset prices and an impact on investment, consumer spending, all of these issues and that is causing a lot of concern. a lot of analysts in china are expected of a stimulus package the only question is how will it be and where will it go exactly? they made for the dinner, what might be an

. >> i think you know, they were counting on henry kissinger to stop this. >> lou: we have to run, drsbury. good to see you. come back soon. well, up next, six days to go until the midterm elections and the national left wing media is hard at work. >> he is willing to score antisemitic and racist points when it benefits him. >> to the southern border, and it is disturbing because it's about a racial ethnic agenda sneaking in the republican party. >> the all-in campaign of the fear and loathing focusing on the migrants and marauders. >> i'm a journalist. i have to give the fact and the truth. the truth and the evidence points to him being a racist. he is a racist. his policies and his words are racist. end of story. >> lou: stay with us. we'll be right back. ('god's whisper' by raury plays) >> lou: a new study for the center of immigration studies revealing that 1,750,000 immigrants entered this country in 2016. that ties an all-time record for immigration and it continues what has been a major surge in immigration beginning in 2011. if you wonder how many are illegal, so are we. we ca

henry kissinger in burzynski. then along comes reagan. where did it come from, paula? >> ronald reagan was a leader. ronald reagan came into the white house with a vision. this did not happen suddenly. he had purpose, he had vision, and it was a platform he also definitively campaigned on and then not just only one the -- won the election but then executed. what is remarkable when you think about it is the consistency of purpose and the way in which, as in the book, the integrated diplomacy. there was a goal, a vision a , strategy. all the elements were tied together in terms of the political elements, the economic components, public diplomacy absolutely being crucial to this execution. and then also the military. the military in the sense of having the slogan peace through strength. here you had a president who had a vision coming in, putting in place all the elements and executing. it was a privilege to be part of that team and that execution. >> john and steve, i want to ask you to help establish the background. how bad was it? >> as a matter of geo-strategy, the so

. >> does anyone care they since henry kissinger to china. david: who does care is peter navarro, the president's own trade theme is cross purpose with kudlow and navarro getting in fights. >> and mnuchin, nobody seems to be on same page, i ask you, what is our policy other than we don't like intellectual property theft? what is it? i have never seen it. i don't know what they want. do you? >> the challenge with jonas said, is that some of the overhangs and headwinds that market faces are out of our control, trade issue is went our control, don't you believe that if we're able to create some certainty this is going to go away, that it will have a positive affect. >> the interest situation is in our control, you could say tech stock was result of over investing in tech stocks. you are acting like this market has gone way up in anticipation of major improvement on tariffs from the current situation and would collapse if it does not happen, i don't think it would have a huge affect. could it spiral if we were in a trade war with other countries

. >> it's interesting, henry kissinger used to be known for rio politic and the secretary is basically, you know, stuff happens in the middle east and if it gets in the way of what's important to us, all the better. you know, ari, there's a rumor circulating all over town that the saudis actually thought they could get away with this and not have the trump administration come down on it. people have come up to me and said they heard people like elliott broudy, who has been under investigation and a close friend of jared kushner has been pumping the saudis before this actual murder that they could get away with this and that's one of the reasons why the saudi ambassador, who is the brother of the crown prince, is no longer here. >> i have to ask you one more thing just to get you on record. does it also in your view embolden other countries to be more likely to take out journalists, whether they live in the u.s. or not? >> absolutely. there's no doubt that the journalists around the world feel even more threatened than ever before, largely because trump seems to have signaled it's a-oka

it is ushered in before the war comes to a close in part by richard nixon and henry kissinger. it cements itself in the midst of the culture wars as we get laments about american decline, the problems of the hollow army who we vowed to defeat once and for all. we showcase as a solution to winning the nation's wars. the myth resurfaces in the mid to late 2000s as the united states fights an increasingly frustrating wars against insurgents in iraq and afghanistan. supporters of these efforts call in the legacy of vietnam and especially on the treatment of veterans of that war to cast doubt about the wars in iraq and afghanistan as unpatriotic, as supporting the troops becomes a central rallying cry for americans in this post 9/11 world. americans are told that fighting these kinds of wars requires military expertise and we are getting better at it and the political will to win. so here we are 50 years gone. the consequences of this narrative i think are two fold. first, it perpetuates an american centric view of the war and the outcome. the story invites us to ask the perpetual w
