we'll hear from businessman, former presidential candidate herman cain coming up. david: you love herman. five states total at the polls today. in ohio we're looking at a very tight congressional race that could shift momentum heading into the midterms. we're on the ground in the buckeye state taking pulse of the voters. >> president trump is out with a warning to the world, stand with the u.s., not with iran. how will europe respond? the latest details and reaction next. >> what he has told europe and every other business entity in the country, excuse me in the world, you can do business with iran but you can't do business with us. you have got to pick. ♪ ♪ ♪ i can do more to lower my a1c. because my body can still make its own insulin. and i take trulicity once a week to activate my body to release it, like it's supposed to. trulicity is not insulin. it comes in a once-weekly, truly easy-to-use pen. and it works 24/7. trulicity is an injection to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. don't use it as the first medicine

presidential candidate himself, herman cain.erman, president obama is a rock star for democrats. they love him. you see these bumper stickers, "i miss barack," it's kind of sad.. he seems to be having fun in retirement. he's wading back in. will this make a difference? >> no. that's because president -- former president obama is a lightweight. he presided over the nation.re president donald trump is a heavy weight. he's leading the nation. that is the difference. if you compare the results side-by-side, even though president trump isn't even two years into his leadership yet, r the results are startling. so former president obama's endorsement won't mean a thing in my opinion. now the list of people use that -- that you said he endorsed, the democrats, and the ones he left out, here's the difference. he endorsed closet socialists but he did not endorse open socialists. that is a difference and i don't think it's going to make a difference. >> laura: well, i think what the democrats are trying to sell this time is you're undoing.

me now to discuss is former republican presidential candidate and former godfather's pizza ceo herman cainmy friend. >> thank you, david. david: i've got to say, this is not the moment -- i don't feel sympathy for people that are pro-socialist when you think of all the millions of people who have died in the name of socialism. however, there are some moments when the economy's going through desperate struggles and everything when perhaps people are looking for some solution, and they stumble upon social -- this is not one of those moments. the economy's booming. we've never had more jobs than we have now. wages are going up, investment is going at great guns. is now the moment when american voters are going to say, yeah, maybe socialism will work? >> no. this is not the moment. i agree with you. first, there is no such thing as a democratic socialist. it's a play on words to dupe people into believing that socialism might be an option. secondly, socialism has never worked in the history of mankind. can we say venezuela? venezuela is so bad because of its socialist/communist/dictatorship th

joining me is former presidential candidate and fox news contributor herman cain. an, good to see you. >> thank you. trish: let me start with the mueller investigation. do you think the president should talk to mueller? should the president sit down with mueller and expose himself to any legal vulnerability that might entail? >> absolutely not and here's why. no evidence has been released. no evidence has been found. the more that mueller bows -- goes through the investigation the further and further away from the president he gets. the president is under no legal or factual obligation to sit down with mueller. i wouldn't do it, because it would simply create some exposure that he doesn't need and it is not warranted. trish: then your words can trip you up. you said something maybe -- >> yes. trish: may have nothing to do with anything, somehow they get you on semantics of something. >> right. trish: you know what bugs me about this? i'm all for figuring out what russia did. making sure russia never does it again. my concern, herman, i don't know they're looking at

stuart: all right, what does herman cain think about that?ention from the economy, what do you say? >> exactly. i call it shift the subject. democrats invented identity politics, they want to let people come across the border, keep them illegal, they use identity politics to play race card when it's convenient. this is halt wash and i don't think it's going to stick but invented identity politics and now they are trying to say somebody else is doing it and bring their party together, their party is so widespread that they are looking for a message. stuart: i don't see how identity politics can bring america together, i just don't see it. you split up into little constituent groups, doesn't bring you together. >> here is the other reason it will not bring the country together, identity politics is seen only through narrow lens of the media which represents all of the bad news in new york, washington and hollywood, the rest of the country, they do not see identity politics. i don't see it when i travel, you don't see it, that's why it's not goi

first, i would like to say that my ideal ticket would have been out of west and -- adam west and herman cainok? with trump, he is not a typical politician. 85% of republicans and democrats cannot trust him as far as he can throw them, but democrats have the press in their back pockets. so they are more emboldened. host: that is lee in alabama. guest: think about president trump's coalition, and going back to stephen california, what i think is interesting in these midterm elections is that president trump did a good job assimilating a coalition that got him elected in 2016, but i am not sure that coalition is as transferable to all republican candidates. president trump is extremely popular among republicans right now, but that does not mean it will vote for their congressman, or otheroman, republicans. some of the trump loyalists believe the republicans on the hill are part of the problem. when their guy is not on the ballot in november, are they going to turn out to vote? maybe they do not want democrats to win because they think they will impeach the president. that could all be true, but

herman cain says let that be a message to democrats and their rising star preaching socialism.
