that's how the president was reacting to it. >> john layfield here.o be nice the rest of the show. look, the fbi can do certain things as far as surveillance that are not illegal. at some point it crosses that line. when does this become criminality and is this, you think, a criminal charge that could happen? >> well, i think that's what the attorney general said he wants to get into. because even when he used the word spying, he clarified by saying we need to find out if it was justified, if there was the proper procedures, the proper information that would warrant that kind of thing. he said that, but of course, the democrats don't want to hear that. they just want to be outraged. they want to demand for retraction and while they are busy calling for bill barr to retract the word spying, they are absolutely quiet on having ilhan omar retract her abhorrent statements that equated 9/11 to some people did some things. >> since you are great with communication, isn't this just all wordplay at the moment? spying? it's been over 24 hours and most cable ne

asman, thank you for joining us, joining me deirdre bolton, caroll roth could robert wolf and john layfield, critics sounds off over an economic impact of a border closure, some even within his own party. >> it is not a good idea. >> it will really hurt our gdp . >> the idea you would close the bored or cut off aid to the countries where people are fleeing and comes to united states, is down right stupid. >> you are just going to hurt jobs in the united states. >> president has a very good economy, he should consider thetic tepght abou -- >> it will have a neg avenue impact on the economy. one of the biggest trade deals in world we did with the usmcarc, security is more importance, we'll have strong border or a closed border. david: let's bring in brandon judd. >> thank you. david: closing the border will cost american companies billions of dollars every month, is closing the border worth the economic cost. >> i think we have to look at this long-term, border security is not a sprint, this a marathon, if it is going to secure border long-term then the economic prospects are better. not shor

side ongoing. >> john layfield here. i want to ask how the administration will define success, because is it going to be -- the president talks about trade deficits and you talk to economists, the stronger economy generally has trade deficits and the tax cuts, just like the reagan tax cuts, have led us to the biggest deficit we have had with china in our history. is the president defining the success, if we get it, the take on wall street is we will get a deal, probably not a good deal, but a deal, that's all we want, is it a matter of the trade deficit being cut down or a matter of i.p.? reporter: major structural issues. that's what the administration wants here. there are different i don't want to say factions but different groups within the president's trade team. some of them want stronger structural protection. the president we have talked about purchases, how he wants to see china step up purchases. i think you got to have if not all of that add up, a lot of that add up and at the end of the day, enforcement becau

bears thanks for joining us i'm david asman, joining us carol roth, robert wolf, kevin kelly, john layfield. first let's go to hillary vaughn she is on capitol hill, hillary what were the big takeaways? >> hey david. well, the first one is that there is a crackdown coming for tech companies at least when it comes to content that they have on their platforms, because today, chairman nadler said he wants federal law enforcement officials to consider white nationalist hate groups and the hate speech they spread online to be considered just as big of a threat as terrorist organizations, so they are taking this issue very seriously , but we heard from both representatives from facebook and google and what they said today was it's a lot harder to crack down on hate speech online, because what may be offensive to someone may not necessarily fall into the category of hate speech and there's not much they can do for that. also, looking on the global scale what may be hate speech in one country or not, is the opposite in a different region of the world, so there's a lot of factors at play here but th

i generally agree john layfield with you, you get what market is coming to pay. gets in white house there will be some call for curbing salary of these guys? >> absolutely, there no doubt, if a democrat gets in white house in 2020, this health inequality is a big campaign promise, by the democrats, they will do something about it if they get election florida thank you so much, that is it for "bulls and bears" next time. >> heated outrage and anger against bernie sanders. saying that felons, including boston marathon bombers should be able to vote from prison. people say bernie you are wrong, kamala harris believes that felons should vote before they do their time. >> door realitry -- realty checr bernie, claiming he does not support communism. and more evidence of bernie dodging and avoiding basic policy questions, as questions mount, will voters refuse to blindly take bernie's word for

bulls and bears," i am david asman, joining me today, suzanne lee, steve forbes, jack howell and john layfield, and very special guests coming up. >> democrats and republicans preparing for a fight when the mueller comes out tomorrow morning, a fight that is likely to drag on. a bank rate survey shows that half of americans believe that political environment is now the biggest threat to the economy, bigger than terrorism or anything over seaers o, or the u agree. >> the key thing is what congress does, if they keep fighting each other that great theater, but that does not effect the economy, what affects the economy is if washington does something stupid. >> i don't think we should waste our time any more. because the house committees this week subpoenaing deutsche bank, if your oversight is bank and financial health of the country, why are you wasting time to get sep soupina when have already cooperated with you. >> these poll results make no sense, you ask people what is biggest risk to the economy, they say politics, they say, they hate politics, but look at what we had last 10 years, i gua

. >> judge, john layfield, always gate tgreat to have you on. >> i would rather be with you on that fancy: bermuda. >> bring your golf clubs i'll take you any day. >> bob mueller, first put in place, bipartisan people said he was a perfect guy to put in place, now bipartisan that someone found something wrong who the process, or report that no one has seen yet, what happened to bob mueller that changed so much from the beginning when everyone said he was the perfect guy. >> i think that people are impatient. it will appear to the public if more is concealed than revealed, that the public has the right to know, they will want to know, bob mueller could be a hero or a goat by noon thursday. >> this will work its way through the courts, judge, do you think all the way to supreme court? >> i don't know the answer to that. supreme court generally does not like to get involved in matters like this. but the last two times we were confronted with this situation, admittedly different facts and statutes. both cases criminal judge, i am speaking of nixon and whitewater, said, public ha rigt to know,

joining me on the panel, carol, robert wolf and john layfield. joe biden remeeting his criticisms on "good morning america" saying the voters aren't feeling the benefits of the strong economy. listen. >> what would you say to the trump voter, the trump supporter who looks at the economy and says very strong numbers? >> what i would say is, did you get any benefit from the tax cut? have your wages really gone up? do your employers treat you with any more respect and dignity than they did before? the fact of the matter is they're not getting their fair share. david: biden doesn't argue that the economy is not doing well. instead he asks the question, are you getting what you think you deserve. is this a smart strategy? >> joe biden, i just heard him say a tax cut was god awful. so what does that make a cut hike? quite amazing. look, joe biden's job, if the economy stays strong, is to convince you it's not strong, to convince you your life will be better if you have him. but the fact of the matter is the numbers, the gdp, the unemployment numbers ar

let's bring in john layfield. boeing ever going to get ahead of this?rom bank of america, from buy to neutral, saying they believe this problem they thought may be wrapped up in three to six months, they believe it's going to run longer. that's a problem. >> i think it will. i think it will because of a vested interest in aviation administrations from europe and china. you look at what happened right after the crash, you had the ceaac, the chinese aviation administration come out and say there's a tie to this and the plane crash that happened before. they are pushing their own c919. the european union came out, who has the airbus 320, they also came out and said there was a problem. our faa came out and defended it. you have all these aviation administrations coming out, doing exactly what's right for their own business which is worrisome. what's worse and worse about this is the fact that europe and china are going to continue and china needs hundreds of planes in the next 20 years. liz: southwest airlines, after american did it, now southwest airlines

joining me now is fox business network susan li, max funds.com founder, jonas max ferris, and john layfieldirst of all if he thinks americans don't act against socialism we have a fox news poll by 2:1, americans react negatively to socialism as opposed to capitalism. >> well he has said before that maybe americans are confused between socialism and communism, but you know he also said he's a capital it's that wants rules around capitalism so i think he's a bit confused on his rules enjoying the middle line as well because i feel like the other socialists they understand that americans are built on innovation, on entrepreneurship, but then they have all these socialistic policies like medicare for all, getting one to $15 an hour and free healthcare, free tuition. david: and the green new deal a $94 trillion, it would triple the federal budget just to pay for this thing. clearly, that is a socialistic plan, and americans don't like it. >> it doesn't make any sense, this doesn't economically also socialism in the united states only 18% of people believe in socialism so you have 82% of the coun

for that i will bring in donald luskin and john layfield. donald, to you first.d for the president. make your case, please. >> it exonerates him. this creates such a panic, so much cognitive dissonance among his opponents. i ask you if you don't believe this, go to the website today of your competitor, bloomberg. you will see two stories side by side. the headline on one story is that mueller report signals to congress to impeach the president. the next headline, right next to it, says democrats in congress see no signals to impeach the president. right? i mean, these people, stuart, this isn't just good friday. this is great friday. stuart: okay. hold on a second. what about you, john? what does this mean, the mueller report, the barr press conference, et cetera, et cetera, what does it mean for the markets? >> i think very little. i think it's good for the country, obviously. we have had 21 special investigations since president carter, only twice has the lead figure being investigated been indicted. that tells you this is just political theater. that was what
