this party has move had had all the way to the left, scott brown. >> yeah, of course they have.oks and wallets, folks. this is not jfk's party or, nor is it bill clinton's party. it's actually elizabeth warren and bernie sanders' party, and her so far left that bill clinton and jfk would not have a role here. elizabeth warren's going to try to rally this base here but, in fact, they look at her as basically being a traitor, because she was criticizing wall street, criticizing all the bad parts of the economy, yet she's endorsing the queen of wall street, hillary clinton. and people of the country are now going to see what the people of massachusetts got with somebody who basically yells and screams at everybody, is so far left that there's no room for any moderate ares or anybody who does not believe in her position. and i don't think it's going to -- it's going to be great for here, but mainstream america, those independents, they're not going to buy it. maria: you know what i've been asking everybody on the show is, look, you've got a big, loyal base for donald trump, a big, l

scott brown weighs in up next. you both have a perfect driving record. perfect.s, no accidents... that is until one of you clips a food truck ruining your perfect record. yeah. now you would think your insurance company would cut you some slack, right? no, your insurance rates go through the roof. your perfect record doesn't get you anything. anything. perfect. for drivers with accident forgiveness, liberty mutual won't raise your rates due to your first accident. liberty stands with you. liberty mutual insurance. >> welcome back. donald trump's main reason for picking mike pence as his running mate is to unify the party. >> here is former republican senator massachusetts scott brown. thank you for joining us early this morning. >> is this the ticket that can unite the party? >> i think it is a great first step. obviously governor pence has strong credentials not only dealing inside and outside the beltway but understanding the legislative process understanding a good strong kong conservative. yes, it is a great first step. when you talk about hillary clinton tha

when you hear names on the top right now like chris christie, like newt gingrich, maybe even scott browno has the rare honor of having been defeated for the senate in two different states, massachusetts and new hampshire, does that concern you at all? i agree that chris christie and newt gingrich are compelling personalities, but they haven't had huge success in recent years electorally. does that concern you at all as a trump supporter? i wrote a column making the case for gingrich. i don't know if he's going to vote for trump. newt would be terrific. to be perfectly candid, i don't think that vice presidents other than linden johnson who carried texas for john f. kennedy, we've had vice presidential kandz ats who were seen as a negative and we've had vice presidential candidates like edmund musky in 1968 and lloyd benson in 1988 who were a plus, so-called and there were tickets still lost and so i really think what you want here is somebody that the president can have lunch with every thursday, and trust. i think joe biden, frankly was terrific for barack obama as i think dick cheney a

that is clear. >> scott brown, can the democrats continue to walk -- not walk away from the issue but to avoid it? can they continue to do that? >> stewart, first of all, what he's going to do, he's going to scare the dickens out of them just like reagan did when iran held our hostages for over a year. so that's the first thing he's going to do because he's very serious and this president is not. can they keep avoiding it? sure. they're in na na land here. you see it's complete chaos. they don't show it but when you're on the floor and you speak to the berne eie supporte they're not happy. they're continually being put down by the hillary factions who control everything. don't forget, they're also honoring the mother of a young boy who was apparently killed by a police officer, was killed by a police officer, but he's not -- they're not honoring the actual police officers themselves who put their lives on the line every day. that's just abhorrent as well. this is dysfunctional to say the least. >> sheriff clark, what do you think about the speakers tonight, inclung the mother of micha

senator scott brown. happy to see you.emails are a weird kind of circle where they show clinton supporters are together exact thing they condemned in the senator sanders campaign. is anybody talking about that there? >> i think you can see it by when they gastled everything in, a lot of boos. barney frank has been booed. a tremendous amount of anxiety. i just walked through the area where all the delegates are and the bernie/hillary folks are. this is unlike anything i have ever seen. there is total chaos. we heard the bernie sanders folks -- bernie in particular is in a meeting to try to quell things because they are going to take this over tonight, i have heard. and what do you expect in there are two sets of rules. one for hillary we see in her team, the dnc, the arm of hillary, and everybody else. trump was right and bernie was right. deirdre: you are hearing any time anybody gets up affiliated with hillary it seems like there is a mixed crowd reaction, but a lot of support for anybody affiliated with senator sanders.

maria: scott brown, dagen mcdowell, always a pleasure.yone. look what we're presented with today, an ax attack by a migrant in germany. in baton rouge, a deliberate assassination. and the same accepts of unease, media attacks on making america great again, but no-- and stocks may pull back a little, but we've had five record highs in a row. the dow is above 18,500 and we'll be there at opening bell. things fall apart, but the market holds. netflix does have competition and customers are no longer signing up in droves. to that convention, the left is

deirdre: former senator scott brown is with me. how likely is it we've have at the supporters on the show who were for senator sanders he will then vote for donald trump. how many are there in the crowd. >> hopefully there are quite a few and that is the question. who comes over to trump and who goes to jill stein and who goes with the libertarian and his dates home. i am hopeful that we will get at least 15 to 20% of those because they are dedicated and they care about trade in jobs we are not all on the same sheet of music but we welcome them i tell you what i have never seen this much chaos inside and outside of the convention before. i don't think these guys are coming over anytime soon. deirdre: i want to ask you about that. you had been talking to people we had saw people lessening during his speech he was shedding tears when you speak with people today was the town a little bit more optimistic in unified or was it the same as yesterday. i thought it would be more mellow today but it actually isn't. they are going to make a p

one other point on scott brown. you were talking about the vp? hear he is a dark horse. now you know i spoke to scott once and asked him and he laughed it off. mike pence on paper looks like the best guy, theoretically gives you a key midwestern state, right, indiana? this is going to be, donald trump is unconventional candidate. he may want to be with someone he can hang out with. liz: just so people know swirling around here, the governor of new hampshire and new york guy and new jersey guy would not work with the rest of the america. >> maybe not. remember this is his personal choice. it is going to be guttural. almost like mccain picking palin. i think it will like what he wants -- less, intellectually, we get the state, i can be with this person you know. liz: charlie, thank you very much. charlie gasparino, looking at the nasdaq and more. the closing bell seven minutes away. the most unloved bull run in history, shattering records again at this hour but when it comes to stocks who is really right? the herd sitting on the sidelines or those

heidi przybyla from "usa today," and former governor scott brown. the rnc said that the fbi wanted her for questioning reinforces her central role in deliberately creating a culture which put her own political ambitions above political rules. we should ask ourselves whether this is the kind of leadership we want in the white house. but will it move the polls at all for or against her? >> i doubt that that statement will. and i'm not sure the meeting with the fbi will. but it does confirm that something serious is going on here and this is not as she keeps repeating some kind of security review. the fbi director himself said not long ago they don't do security reviews, they do criminal investigations, and that unmistakably is what this is. but the ultimate question is whether anything will come of it and formal charges against her, and if that were to happen, that would be -- that would be -- that would be a big deal. >> it would be a game changer. >> would throw the presidential contest into a hat and who knows what would become of that. but this ye

>> i think you're looking at scott brown as probably one of the people.ernor rendell disagrees with thirks but i do think that he's someone that donald trump will consider, because loyalty is probably one of the key factors for donald trump's decision-making. and scott brown was one of the first senators, whether current or former, that endorsed donald trump. and he did it a week before new hampshire. and he's someone, again, who if you're focused on a rust belt strategy, is someone who could work very well for him. >> he is someone, though, who is driving this narrative, as donald trump is doing it. is he listening to advisers, do you think, when it comes to making this choice, ultimately? >> i think he's listening to hear what people have to say, what they think is important, but i think he's going to make this decision completely on his gut and what he thinks is right, because this is what's worked for him so far. >> okay, susan, ed, jeremy. thank you, all three of you. appreciate it. great to see you. >>> coming up, we're going to go live to baton rou

. >> i think the head fake will go to scott brown. you may see him picked as the vp. >> scott brown? >> yes. he was the first senator, former or sitting senator to endorse donald trump a week before new hampshire. we know that matters a lot to donald trump when it comes to loyalty. he does have the legislative experience and frankly his family and everything works well in that casting image for donald trump. >> chris, i think tim kaine would be a pretty safe pick and one that would focus the attention back on hillary clinton, which she needs to do. >> it depends on what their calculation is. there are two schools of thought. one is you kind of go with safe choice and so-called safe choice against senator kaine. he has governor experience. if they are concerned at all about the base or bringing out the base, maybe you can start considering elizabeth warren, cory booker. there are a lot of other names bantied about, labor secretary perez. my instinct tells me they are probably going to play it fairly safe. i think the onus of the pressu

joining me is charlie gasparino, "national review" columnist, former massachusetts senator scott brown, good to see all you guys. what is your reaction to this news about milania trump? >> the intro is get back on track, here we are talking about a spouse of a presidential candidate in a minor part of her speech, 21 million that hillary clinton got and she hasn't released any of that content. how about president obama lifting from former governor patrick and joe biden, i agree with charlie, the campaign should have checked and rechecked and shame on them. how does it happen? in this day and age, you can google it. charles: there is no knock on scott. i love scott. this is campaign without good infrastructure. how does that star thing happen a couple weeks ago which somebody lifted an image from a website they should have searched and didn't go back to church -- search where the image came from even if they are misusing copyright. this -- these are simple things that if you hire good people they do and they don't have the people to do that. trish: they do -- charles: they just started t

here to weigh in scott brown and democratic strategist julie, i will start with julie first. ott: absolutely. trish: he does need to win over more women and julie, it's anticipated that that's going to be one of his biggest hurdles. i should think his daughter could help him immensely here. what is it that she could do tonight that really might start to change how he's perceived? >> well, she needs to do two things. one, she needs to continue what her brother eric did so effectively which was humanize trump. his son eric yesterday spoke with love and admiration for his father and you saw donald trump i think almost tearing up at his son's praise of him and that was a poynant moment regardless of what you feel about donald trump to show there's a connection there and ivanka can do that too and hopefully be able to do that as well. secondly -- trish: go ahead, julie. >> secondly, she needs to explain to women, this is a much tougher challenge, how donald trump's policy and rhetoric towards women is not something -- that's a very tall order for her. clearly it's his daughter and

you see it waiting but first let's get reaction from senator scott brown, former clinton aide, simonberg. scott brown, to you, a lot of people thought this would be the outcome but in the beginning, sounded like he was laying out the groundwork for an indictment. >> related out quite eloquently and everybody was a little surprised he did not recommend misdemeanor type of charge moving forward. he laid out successfully what the problems were. what it did was it does not discourage elected officials in the future to do the same exact thing and be held accountable. she did a couple things, she avoided foia by having a personal server, she lied based on this she said she never sent or received classified emails but we know that is not true so it contributes to the narrative that she can't be trusted and is a liar. the american people finally understand what those facts are and ultimately they will make their own decisions moving forward. charles: he started at the beginning of the press conference, he talked about the federal statutes to mishandle classified information intentionally or

we also have former senator scott brown, a republican from massachusetts and a fox news contributor.nks to both of you for joining us. letus start with you. president obama, on an order. hereally knows how to bring a room to its feet . a lot of the message that we heard was that things are good area government is working . things are getting there, leading the way it is. do you think that's a message that resonates in the year of change? >> you also heard from the president that we are still perfecting our union, there's still a lot to be done. this beach was really, really hard because you had to do three different things. he had to defend his own legacy and talk a little bit about things are better than when he took over. he has to talk about how hillary would be a great president and he has to prosecute the case against donald trump. weaving those things together is superhardand there are challenges but i think he did really well . melissa: senator brown, the challenges that he is going to get out there and say you know, things are great. you want more of me but at the same time t

of the executive director of the new york state democratic party and former republican senator scott brown all here on the set with me. are you upset? this is what you had been alleging all along. it turns out you are right. >> definitely upset but not surprised. the key is that the democratic party is taking responsibility and they are letting debbie wasserman schultz go. trish: but is that enough? this process was flawed. this week instead of hillary clinton had it not been for the scheming behind-the-scenes. >> i think everybody needs to be held accountable. but that being said it was a fight with 13 million voters and they got out and made the statement clear that what he stood for his part of the key. does the system need to change. we had been saying all along that donald trump has been saying all along and bernie sanders was saying that the superdelegate system but him at that disadvantage. you are seen change. to your point about the $13 million, they are welcome in the democratic party. we need the supporters to go out and support us in elections. if you look at our platform in th

meaning scott brown, pro-choice.hat would light a fire. >> what's the best thing he's done since he became the presumptive nominee? named the supreme court. >> i like that. >> i was on the show last week with mike lee. he didn't have a lot nice to say about trump. so if you're going to do something like that, i would think he is probably rooting like heck, hillary clinton picks elizabeth warren. if you try to unite the republican party, that would be the way to do it. he still needs to do it. ted cruz finished second, who is by all means a conservative and party loyalist -- >> he's still out there. >> he's not there. >> gingrich is strong on the opportunity society, middleclass, working class angst. >> the american-mexican team versus the japan-china team. i wonder what japan thinks? let's move to the democrats here. on my show coming up sunday, he is on a shorter list than people think. marie, i'll start with you. what do you make of tom perez? what do you make of her name in the number two? >> for the latina commun

here to weigh in, jamie weinstein of "the daily caller," senator scott brown, former massachusetts senatorld trump supporter and fox news contributor. thanks to both of you for joining us. jamie, start with you, wrote a whole article about it. unity at the republican convention, forget about it. why do you say that? looks like everybody is coming together? >> i'm not seeing same thing. the last two republican presidents. melissa: nobody cares about them. >> well, this is talking about unifying. it has never happened in the history of the republican party where you have the former, republican presidents not endorsing the former nominee, not endorsing, sitting governor of the state in which the convention is being held not endorsing, not coming to speak. entire basically republican intellectual establishment, either despises donald trump or merely disdain him. there is no unity coming out of it. melissa: senator, one might say that having the entire republican intellectual establishment behind you is not an asset in this election. the reason why people like donald trump is because they're si

believe he's playing a role and they keep pointing and they keep saying this and we don't believe it, scott brown. >> pro-choice -- >> looking at personality-wise. >> i want to go to the democrats. tom perez has been working his way up the list. and he have enough foreign policy experience? does clinton care about that? >> clinton doesn't need to care about the experience but she needs to follow through on commitments so that would be a big test. came, checked the boxes and will have to explain the gift practices he followed perfectly legal and even was excessive in the way he computed the values of things but given the bob mcdonald saying is this true, 8-0 invalidation of the prosecution, but given all of the other issues somebody that will come out -- >> tom, we've added him to the list as somebody vetted before. john carry vetted him in '04. roll america which is something she can't be -- >> in '08 he and his wife were major for hillary clinton -- >> their connection is with her, not bill. it is a hillary clinton long -- >> i think that that really matters a lot and i do think one thing the cl

how we found out scott brown was going to run for new hampshire. ben carson and mike huckabee in 2016, they got publicly fired at fox news, so they could clear the way to make that run, and that's how we all knew they'd be running. well, keeping that pattern in mind, you should note that today, newt gingrich, once again, got fired from fox news. and so maybe that means he's going to be running with donald trump as trump's vice presidential running mate. maybe it does. we will see. who knows? maybe fox just fired him for a week and they're going to hire him back after the convention, once trump names mike pence as his vice presidential running mate. who knows. it's almost not worth speculating on at this point if only we don't have to speculate for long. we just have to hold our breath and wait. we're going to find out by the end of this week. so your guessing time is almost up. the real unanswered question is whether or not the sort of thing that is worth worrying about, particularly for republicans, is whether the vice presidential running mate an
