show, richard fowler. men, thank you very much for being here. >> thank you. >> good to be with you. gerry: byron, the economy, we have surging inflation, falling real wages, we have dramatically higher interest rates, we have a stock market falling out of bed all the time. this should be very propitious for republicans in november, but they don't actually seem to have the advantage you might expect in those circumstances. what's going on? >> well, i think it actually will be very propitious for republicans in november. i think we had a period of time in which a number of democrats became pretty hopeful that their chances weren't as bad as they seemed to be, and they placed their hopes on being able to use the supreme court's decision on abortion against republicans. and that is going to be a factor in some races. and also on the heightened visibility of former president trump as he's pursued by the justice department and now by the attorney general of new york and others. they were hoping that that would

[laughter] jimmy: he's still holding out. democrats, richard i'll start with you. the democrats have cut the lead and according to this only all accounts have momentum in the midterms, are you feeling better? are you feeling confident for a little concerned there's pulling this week knowing the biden mega aggression might bring him back to the pack a little bit? >> i don't have feelings on this one because here's the truth, anybody making bridges about this election, measuring the drapes, the

richard fowler and spike.resting that the vice president used the phrase dereliction of duty. she has been completely derelict and her duty as border czar. she cannot even adequately describe what is going on at the border, the very secure border. >> and will not even go to visit. if she did go to visit, it would probably make matters worse. i do not particularly like stunts and politics. as stunts go, this has been an incredibly brilliant stunt. it focused all of the attention on all of the policies that joe biden and democrats have supported for years and even decades and it reviewed just how disastrous they are. as soon as it happens in a way that they do not like, they immediately put people in cages, they call in the military, they accuse republicans of playing politics with migrants and all of which of course they themselves have been doing for years and decades. we have a much bigger problem we have to deal with but the media problem of people coming across the border was solved when joe biden came into

fox news contributor joe concha and richard fowler, thank you for joining the program joe, it seems likehe country is more divided, there's a new poll saying 44% of adults pulled saying the civil war is the least likely in the next decade, are you surprised? >> 40%, that's unthinkable in 2022 but when you have the rhetoric the president biden used thursday calling 74 million of fellow americans nazis and the biggest threat to this country, maybe there's a reason people are feeling this way. most of the people i see, they are good and kind and polite to each other and i look back to this one gallup poll this telling, 84% of americans agree the media is to blame for political vision in this country so perhaps that's what's stoking it but four out of ten people thinking we could have another civil war in this country, that is disturbing. >> civil war, is that a bit much? [laughter] >> i think joe is right it's a bit much and the media are to blame. let's think about the last civil war, we weren't fighting about who would be in the white house for whether or not the united states kat, we wer

and richard fowler.g john federman a pass on his health until they quit -- question tim. >> i think the media got on board with addressing his health issues really late in the game. a lot of people will have voted in the early voting process by the time this debate actually happens. if it does happen. there is no indication that he will back out but people are guessing that will be the case. weeks ago there were questions about federman not being on the campaign trail. the first big clue that something was wrong. running a campaign on social media and doing it successfully. no motivation whatsoever to really get him out there answering questions. the media just stayed silently by. out everybody, i know our paper covering it. if he was a republican candidate he would've been all in. no small part of being a senator. he is seriously having problems doing that. >> a 40 minute video interview with the new york times using closed captioning which he would get for the debate because it helps him process the qu

let's bring in richard fowler, fox news contributor.. >> you had a chance to talk to her yesterday. her need to attract more black male votes. the fox news survey black voters supporting stacey abrams was 98% and now 78%. she said we need to say black men count and we need their engagement in order to win an election. the issue is vote share. when black men vote they vote for me. what else did you learn yesterday? >> it was a wide ranging interview. listen, i think the minority leader acknowledges that she is behind in the polls. she points to incumbency as part of the problem. all pointing to the fact she is not looking at the polls. she is trying to build a new electorate. she acknowledges there is a long way to go but she is creating the largest voter outreach campaign ever and really trying to recreate the biden coalition. it is worth pointing out in 2020 her nonprofit fair fight was part of the building blocks and the cornerstone of the biden coalition in georgia and trying to rebuild that and try to make it stronger than ever to h
