questions are the one that are coming via satellite from those journalists that they're picking from middle america. they have a better handle on what people are thinking. this obsession with the firing, people in d.c. our young people thinking about it 24/7. there is no -- he's not america's favorite mayor like rudy giuliani. he's not somebody everyone's in love with. people right now are thinking about all the good things that are happening which frankly the president should talk about which is the economy. >> sandra: only puts back on that. i would say couldn't they have ruled that out better? couldn't he have gone about it better so it didn't dominate the media? >> rachel: that's a people like about it because in a way, you see some buddy coming from the private sector who is not an insider who doesn't always do things the perfect way or the way that's expected. >> alex: that's exactly the point. he's used to being the ceo and the ceo, he was probably used to the fact that once he set a policy in this way we're going, there is no blowback. >> meghan: part of my problem right now is it's very im

you are saying to me that you don't believe your newspaper right now truly gets middle america?e it a little more complicated than that. and not because i am obfuscating on the issue. i think there are some things about middle america that we don't quite have our minds wrapped around. religion. i grew up in a very catholic family. my parents went to church every sunday, i went to church every sunday. i am not particularly religious any more. i think that in new york and washington and los angeles, religion is seen as foreign. i don't think we understood in new york and washington or los angeles just how much the trade imbalance was affecting the lives of people in middle america. i do think that we could do a much betterjob. you talked about the importance of trust and you suggested that the new york times still has to do work to make sure that that bond of trust between newspaper and reader is strong. so let's talk a little bit about the mechanics of reporting, particularly in the era of the trump presidency. you, and i have been looking closely at the way you have reported, pa

the coast is their own political country and middle america is so much different, slower to accepting changes, but changes nonetheless are under way. the first chapter is about child freed by choice. our culture seems to equate womanhood with motherhood, people who choose not to have children are often shamed by their colleagues or friends were not having children. the minute i got married my grandmother started asking me when i was going to have children because kraut-- procreation and couple hood is just assumed. i would like to debunk that assumption took many people are fulfilled without being parents. it's not for everyone and contrary to the notion may be selfish to not have children, i think it is selfish to have children if you are not ready for it and you don't have the time or resources to give that child what they deserve. the women in midnight interviewed cited financial issues, career concerns, lack of maternal and paternal instincts, negative childhood experiences, overpopulation and the desire not to bring children into a violent world as their major reasons for not pro

so middle america.a.? >> well, i think everybody at this point in time is taking everything with a grain have salt almost to the point of ignoring it, simply because the media has gone off track. you know, there's something they teach in journalism school. you guys know this. there's journalistic objectivity. and, unfortunately, the media has lost that. you can't mix values with facts. and that's what's going on. instead of reporting the news and disseminating information, it's become an opinion piece and a constant editorial. so when you have a major news anchor that is interviewing a staff member that's very high up in the trump administration and when she gets her response, he gives a hugely exaggerated eye roll, that's not news anymore. the hard working people out there that put trump in office, put the president in office, they're saying you don't have the right to tell us how to think anymore. so they're really looking at this thing as being a little bit betrayed, and i think at this point most pe

middle america, america and general is tired of it as well. i have so many people who called in to my radio program today who said maybe the media deserves it because were tired of being lied about. were tired of being manipulated, and were tired of excusing awful things done to us in the name of partisan ideology. this is the point we are at because people hate media this badly. >> tucker: i think they've earned a lot of that scorn for sure. but isn't it important. >> they go out and try to ruin people's lives pretty >> tucker: i've been on the receiving end. isn't it important to say there is a significant difference between people who seek to debate and use reason in order to persuade and people who are willing to endorse the use of force to get others to obey? those are two different worlds. and i for one would rather be in one and not the other and shouldn't conservatives say that? i get that people are annoying, but wouldn't you rather be famous for not hitting them? >> i think so. i think you would rather be so. and you and i talked abo

also the question of how we build jobs and the middle class here in america. the question is are you filtering every single thing that comes your way through the lens of the lobbyist and campaign contributors and the boss and paid for experts and think tanks with the shadow funding and advertising as it is filtered through where money and makes sure its point of view is always represented and what it takes the working people. what is the one on education. they explain to their constituents i voted to keep a giant tax break in place for a bunch of rich people. they couldn't afford to go to college without borrowing money. i think this is about educating people so that you make the investment in the education. the other countries are making the investment in infrastructure every time china makes an investment in infrastructure. every time they do that they are investing in good jobs in bear country they make it easier to get back and forth to work to walk around is part of it. the trade policy is about the trade policy. it's the corporations in the country. it's

the suffering of christians in the middle east has stirred america to act, and it brings me here today. president trump rightly said not long ago that -- of the christian church, "nobody has been treated worse in the middle east." he's made it clear that america will stand by followers of christ in this hour of need. our administration is fully committed in bringing relief and comfort to believers not only across the middle east but across the world. this president knows the terrorists will not stop until we stop them. and under president donald trump, we will stop them.

quite make enough money -- maybe don't have enough to get employer assurance, your caught in the middle. america compassionate they want to have good care of they want all of these things. i think if republicans were better at storytelling and making it personal, that's how you can help draw on emotion. president trump was excellent at this during the campaign and on other issues where he has made the story the issue. remember when he decided to do the attacks in syria with the tomahawk missiles and he talked about the story. he made it personal and what it meant to him and about the children. you can do that, you could be republican and tell a story as well. i'm not saying a play on people's emotions but use anecdotes that will help give people comfort about the bill you will pass tomorrow. the thing i'm concerned about, i'm glad they got the votes, i think. they don't have a lot of the details. i think they are open to some criticism because they don't have a congressional budget office for it. they don't know how much it's going to cost or how many people might be uninsured. this is the probl

women, i'm all for that the problem is that we when we lead with that, that's what people in middle americaere known as the working man's party. i think that got lost. and hillary clinton made it worse by concentrating on those identities that make up -- made up the democraticy. >> eric: think about this for a second. hillary clinton is a super resistance pac she's calls it sole purpose is to take down donald trump. one of the other leaders of the democratic party elizabeth warren has a new book out. i think it's number two or three on the "new york times" best seller list. specifically deals with taking down donald trump. you democrats seem to be foe focused on donald trump instead of developing a message that the american people want to hear. jobs, the economy, make my life better. >> yeah, but, listen, you know when you are a party out of power, you tonight make a message for a whole party without a president. of course we are out after donald trump. exactly what i'm doing. i wish hillary would take a very long boat ride to china because i don't think it's necessary to have her in the mi

so i think that this will be perceived good in middle america.s a good week for president trump. >> but, chris, do you think this was more about sticking to campaign promises here or was this about belief in the ahca? >> i think this is an administration that needed to put something on the scoreboard and was determined to do everything they could to do that. when you push a piece of legislation through and basically there's no debate, no one's read the bill because they didn't really make the bill public, and there's no cbo score so you don't know what the cost is or how many folks are actually going to lose insurance, but then you start realizing what's in there. the cuts to medicaid, the cuts in subsidies, the taking away or minimizing of pre-existing conditions coverage. i mean, this is the problem that the trump administration and those house members are going to face. this is apparent viekt ri. what i mean by that is simple. you have to take something away. it's easy to give something to voters, now you're taking health care away. people may

. >> we tracked him from belize to guatemala, miami to middle america. >> why go on the run? >> because if i didn't, i'd be a dead man. >> tonight, he's ready to talk. about his rise, fall, and new rise. only to "20/20." >> are you losing your mind? >> are you? >> and the fireworks are just getting started. >> good-bye. >> you're walking out on the interview. >> yes. because you have not kept your damn word. >> good evening. i'm elizabeth vargas. >> and i'm david muir. he calls himself the god of computer security, and now john mcafee is answering hard questions tonight about what happened after he made millions. >> he's front and center at a time when everybody is focused on computer hacking. but what happened on the mysterious off the radar years, when he was suspected of taking a life? matt gutman has been following him for four years to find out. >> reporter: there are so many layers to the epic, disturbing story of john mcafee. maybe because there are so many john mcafees. >> john mcafee is one of the wildest characters you'll ever come across. >> reporter: there's mcafe

that's the problem and why middle america is so frustrated.eople are getting laid off, people out of work, people working part-time who want to be working full-time. tell those people that things aren't changing fast enough. i don't know if they would take that so well. >> i'm an old labor reporter. i never forgot those years. mark andreson is a billionaire sitting there saying this. it is not that he is intellectually wrong. if you say that, exactly what you said, say that to somebody who has already been disrupted by robots or globalization or something, this is a big part of why donald trump got elected. all these people aren't racists. a lot of them really have suffered. they don't know where their next job is coming from in this changing economy. i know mark understands that. he is dealing with a big picture, 20 years out kind of look at things. that doesn't help the person sitting somewhere in pennsylvania who has a problem. i also will say one other thing about mark who i admire very much and i have known since the netscape days. at the

but what gets screwed here is the growth agenda in middle america. and guess what? the democrats and the media just don't care. trish: yeah, that's my concern and that's been the market's concern. he said he's worried we're not going to get the economic policy reforms done that we need in the way of tax cuts, in the way of repeal and replace obamacare in the way of less regulation. and you know what? that hurts everyday americans in the end. >> hey, trish, i absolutely agree with you and ford that this has been, and it will be a huge roadblock in the way of real reform. infrastructure reform, tax reform, whether or not you want obamacare or not as we have discussed before. but i tell you what. these are self-inflicted wounds by the trump administration. and it's not fair to say that there's nothing really here. i mean, this is something that objectively americans can agree and should agree that we should be looking into. trish: let me stop you there. in some ways, maybe you could look at this as glass half full. maybe you could be saying gosh darnit, what the heck w
