republican senator steve gains joins me from capital hill. know you are happy and this is important to you and senator johnson of wisconsin, what do you get? >> i spent 20 years and the fight over the tax relief for main street businesses. small businesses in america. they represent 55 percent of the private sector jobs and they are main street business and that's what we changed in the tax bill and they will see a nice tax cut to help push wages up and grow the economy and put more dollars in the pockets of hard working americans. >> harris: is that a dollar? it is nuggets and it is helpful? >> no, it is it from top to bottom in the tax code for the small businesses. i grew up in the house of a contractor in montana. they will see better tracks relief. and i fought for hundred billion in tax relief. it is time to take the dollars sitting in washington d.c. where there is affluent counties right here. and in montana's case. 800 million we are taking from washington d.c. and sending it back home to montana. >> harris: we have got notes on when

that won over steve gaines of montana and now senator ron johnson of wisconsin so that means republicans still up in the air what happens with bob corker and jeff flake, two of the big deficit hawks in the senate as they work on an oo alternative to that figure but ron johnson is a yes >> it went from 17.4% to 20% but you just mentioned 23% when did the number go from 20% to 23% >> that happened overnight they negotiated that number with republican leadership that adds about another $100 billion in tax breaks for pass-through businesses on top of the $60 billion that came from bringing it up to 20% so bumping up to 23% was a big deal ron johnson had been looking for a bigger break for pass-throughs. >> what does that mean for the deficit hawks like senator hawk, senator flaker and senator langford >> do they need those senators in order to pass the bill? what happens with susan collins? is she close enough to a yes what about senator langford. he hasn't been quite as vocal as flake and corker on this if you have all the others you can lose flake and corker. >> the two guys that aren't co

do they neutralise steve bannon and his war, or does he still gain the upper hand? battle in 2010. and in 2012. suzanne, what was your view? i agree with a lot of that. this could be a turning point for donald trump. if you look at the figures, suburban districts that voted heavily for trump in 2016 flipped and voted for doug jones. there was also a very important election in virginia last month. the same thing happened. it was a strong african—american vote. and a strong suburban vote. you could say roy moore is such a flawed candidate, we can't deduce anything from that. the idea of democrats winning an election in alabama at the moment would be beyond their wildest dreams. no—one wanted to predict this in washington. there are serious questions now about donald trump's judgment in terms of his decision to back this guy that everybody advised him not to back, except steve bannon. i think that this battle that has been happening in the party and will dominate the midterms next year, which is — do we stick with conservative republicans or go down the firebrand route

wynn has had an absolutely incredible run, 100% gains that's stock that steve wynn was in there and telling you, this is too cheap, i'm buying my own stock back now he's got 12 million shares of his own stock that's a guy who is committed and showed us the way. but is the valuation a little high if there's any missteps in macau, that stock will tumble down i'm not in it right now and i'm not chafing sing it right now. i'm waiting for an opportunity for a pullback if they've got growth in the right areas, and in particular like a boeing where you have all that cash coming in every quarter, they remain very interesting to me. >> there's not a valuation on there. i agree on wynn. best buy, always cheap, is less cheap but has had a great run. you can make an argument on what we saw on christmas. this caterpillar valuation is really difficult the d.r. horton move is mostly about that four-star acquisition. it cycles high on new home sales. these guys have a lot of wind at their backs. boeing ultimately is the valuation that i have the easiest time biting into right now. that erj announced deal,

alphabet, very small gain this morning. steve, would you buy any of them? you buy any of these tech stocks at the moment, the big five? >> you know, i wouldn't right now because i do think rotation is going to be the name of the game particularly as we get into 2018. i think we'll accelerate more with the tax cuts, but that said sometimes like the bible said the fist shall be last and the last shall be first, i think there's going to be rotation in energy, small caps. i'm not anti-tech, but it's had an amazing run. the. stuart: you've got that right, steve. now i want to focus on facebook. barclays, big bank, says facebook's in a good position to raise ad prices which would be good for the stock, liz. >> for the next ten years. in other words, they still have not maximized the potential. goggle is raising prices for -- google is raising prices, so they see a 23% upside to the stock. stuart: they do? that's up about 40, 50 points -- >> yeah, pretty much on the nose. and facebook is getting really much better at how telepatrick it is on the ads it shows on yo

gain from ttip. >> steve, i just know you will be reading the appendices, because there are generally scary equations. [laughter]. all right, moving on, i will go first to moira, then to you. i will take two questions at a time. >> i'm moira taylor, former wilson fellow. my question is about ireland. "brexit" has major implications for ireland. i was wondering when you look at your scenarios, did you look at the, how each scenario might affect ireland and their economy? also do you have any thoughts on what most likely or perhaps the, will you in, most likely, perhaps also the best scenario for ireland and the uk on border and trade moving forward? >> great. we have the island question. i will take yours too. >> hi, there, garrett workman from the u.s. chamber of commerce and otr u.s.-uk business council. i want to get into the u.s.-uk assumptions a little bit more. as far as "the ft" a goes did you assume that the e eu 27 in their divergence looks like there were more divergences in the second phase than there were in the first phase? did you look at existing eu agreements with the j

it feels like it's a short-term gain for a lot of the fodder for steve bannon.otential long-term loss for the party overall. >> like the proxy, alice, usually for the president, is hillary clinton, because steve bannon has taken aim at mitch mcconnell, as well. and mitt romney, a proxy war between bannon and the accomplishment. >> sure. that was the game he played in the election. draining the swamp. it was successful. another powerful tactic that bannon has been able to use for president trump, and he's using it with moore, is putting the power back in the people's hands. he said, don't let washington tell you how to vote. don't let democrats. the republican establishment. this is your vote and you should do this how you see fit. he managed to make it us against them and not about these allegations of sexual harassment. that was a key to success for roy moore, given that he is doing well in the polls. but to kevin's point, the long-term impact for the party -- i think the fact we're supporting someone -- bannon, and the rnc and the president, it ee's important

steve bannon. he doesn't have an institutional base to carry out his revolution, and i think that's why the last three candidates he's supported have successively failed. it is gaining traction for moving this beyond him. >> we cannot forget steve bannon in all this, because he backed moore, he was down there campaigning for him. what do you have to say about bannon this morning? >> this guy does not belong on the national stage. he looks like some disheveled drunk that walked on the political stage. he does not stand for anything i stand for. i consider myself a conservative republican, i consider myself an irish catholic. he sort of parades himself out there with these weird alt-right views that he has, and to me it degrades the whole republican process. >> that was with my colleague, chris cuomo, and cuomo said it this morning, he said, those are some fighting words. how big of a hit was last night, that loss to bannon's nationalism grand, frank? >> a huge, huge hit. i've been hearing for weeks, even months now, from republicans that steve bannon's influence and profile were way overrated, that steve bannon has done this expert job partly through the way he looks

steve bannon jumped on this band wagon when he started gaining speed.sful primary candidates. he doesn't have the greatest record as a political strategist. this seems to me a case where bannon has sort of inserted himself and jumped on the band wagon of a candidate who was doing pretty well before he came along. but it is true that, as a political attack the thing about the republican establishment resonates with particularly republican voters in alabama. when i was covering the primary i heard it a lot. the name mitch mcconnell might as well be a dirty word to republican voters. >> wow. >> and it was a big reason that luther strange was not able to win the primary and roy moore was. >> bannon went after moore critic mitt romney for not serving in vietnam. listen to this. >> you hid behind your religion. you went to france to be a missionary while guys were dying in vietnam. do not talk to me about honor and integrity.

the roy moore debacle and the fact that steve bannon has been in the eyes of somewhat some white house advisers trading on his time in the administration to gain influence outside the white house. they view him a little bit as a self promoter but they spoke as recently as a few weeks ago. >> bob, 20 seconds. >> yeah, i think bannon's stock took a hit with moore. he's got to beat these republican incumbents he's going out in 2018 or his stock will plummet more. >>> quickly to you, sarah, because you're so good at that, bob. bannon was critical of mcconnell in the article that i was just alluding to. how important is that dynamic? >> absolutely i think that mcconnell is bannon's number one target. it's the entire reason he backed roy moore and he'll have his candidates pledge to oppose him. >>> come back at 1:00 p.m. when green party presidential candidate jill stein will be our guest. first, it is "velshi & ruhle."

leaving open doors for russia and as i said whose interests are in opposition to gain advantage of our expense. >> steve, president trump has been remarkably consistent through the campaign, through all the turmoil that surrounds the question of russia in saying he believes the interest is served by a better relationship with russia and vladimir putin n and you can't solvthat you can r problems unless you have to. is he wrong facts to be complex and how would you assess the question i put to suzanne, is it time that we change how we deal with this powerful russia and i will tag on a comment i made before. a friend of mine recently said to me thinking about all these issues we need to give russia a punch in the nose. we need to find somewhere in the world and give them a punch in the nose. but more generally about this interesting paradox of the policy. >> i think that we can all agree that and improved relationship with russia would be a good thing. russia is active in a lot of theaters. my worry is that in some sense he decided his role is to be a spoiler in some sense. the ambassador before he left sa

gains rate. that is -- trish: they pay way lower taxes that means like steve schwarzman and rest of them out there way less, percentagewise, mark serrano than a firefighter in new york. i think that is fundamentally wrong. president promised to change it. guess what, both senate and congress they're asleep at the switch when it comes to that. too many lobbyists out there lining somebody's pocket to make sure the private equity investors stay fat. >> i understand the frustration, despite all that, despite all that trish the corporate tax rate coming down to 20 or 22, that is 200 million, 200 billion in extra revenue for the united states, that's really critical. for all the flaws this bill has we have to get that. there is three trillion sitting offshore that is going to stay there if we don't do something about it. trish: i agree with that but i just can't believe how obvious. saying we'll stick it to individuals. stick it to high earners. they will pay the price and corporations will get the break. >> corporations will get the break at 20%. perhaps at 22%. look at announcement from the national a

steve: what did the sport teach you about life? secretary perdue: it taught me that life is a team sport and you gain the respect and honor of your teammates by contributing in an unselfish kind of way. it is the benefit of family and here at the usda when you treat people as a team and a family, each one of us knowing our responsibilities, we could not all be quarterbacks or running backs or wide receivers, but each of us if we did our jobs and contributed to the benefit of the team, i think that is a life skill and a gift. steve: how did you meet your wife, mary? secretary perdue: i met her at the university of georgia on a blind date. i was a second year veterinary student. it was my fourth year in college, and she was a freshman from atlanta. mary had been born in new orleans. g for manyorked for two years and they moved to atlanta when she was a freshman in high school, and she came to the university of georgia. i had a friend. they moved into mary's dorm, and it was one of those you have to meet him, you have to meet her kind of deals. we both succumbed to her pestering. fortunately, we had a blind date and never looked back. steve:
