And we do have fox Business Team covered set up with Jackie Deangelis in our new york newsroom blake burman across town from where i am in the white house north one, well get to moment blake but jackie we start with you. But took a look at where we finished the day, the s p 500, the nasdaq, the new records, the dow did not manage to get a positive gain for the week but it was positive for the session up 190 points. Their use of s p up 11 points, the nasdaq up a 46, tech continuing to feel the rally and theres the optimism about treatments and vaccines when it comes to the coronavirus as well as slowly reopening the country and getting the economy back to business, that seems to be happening and investors are grasping onto that, you could say momentum from the convention depending on how you want to read that statement, having said that lets take a look for the week as well because we are seeing the markets, mostly in the green, the s p 500 and the nasdaq showing a weekly gain, the dow showing a small loss when it comes to what we saw for the week, having said that existing home sales were out this morning and that was a positive number boosting the market, 5. 86 million for the month of july, that was up 24. 7 in blue past expectations and the markets were expecting it to be a gain of 14 and a pretty big jump, low interest mate environment and also an impact from covid19, people moving to different parts of the country starting to spark into continuing to spark those sales but remember how important the Housing Market is when it comes to the overall economy. That really is a bright spot right now. Back to you. Connell thank you, now to another big story, the postmaster general defending his leadership in the Postal Service as a virtual testimony in front of a Senate Committee today and we get to blake burman who has more on all of that. Spell the trend. Hello from the other side of pennsylvania avenue, lewiston joined the postmaster general testified in a virtual setting and assuring that Senate Committee is really trying to assure the country as a whole as democrats that the u. S. Post office does have enough capacity to handle a surge of the mailin voting. The postmaster general saying he backs the concept of mailing voting in his vices to vote early, he even said the post office would be reaching out to the electorate in the upcoming weeks. In september were going to send a letter to every american with what our processes going out to every american citizen. I feel good and very, very proud of what were doing and we will deliver for the american people. Despite that message right there, President Trump still continuing to insist today that he feels the election could take weeks, two four weeks, maybe longer than that to get the final results back from the election, the joy also acknowledged that there have been wait times as it relates to some Postal Services in the recent weeks changes that he has made. The top democrat in the Senate Chuck Schumer reacted to the hearing this way saying the following, postmaster general the joy acknowledged that his policies are causing delays, totally an acceptable, we need a permanent rescission of all of the changes hes put into place in usps must treat all election materials as first class. This is awkward to be the last that we hear from the postmaster general as he will testify before the house on monday. Connell thank you. Blake burman at the white house. Melissa here is steve moore, Freedom Works economist, there is so much bs in the usps story, i dont even know where to start but im going to start with this one, they had a hearing today where they wanted to drill down on the fact and reveal to the American Public that snail mail is in fact slow that was one big piece which i found shocking the other thing i didnt hearsay is the fact that the post office if they are still hurting for money, they awarded a 10 billion line of credit for the treasury of july 29, no one is talking about that. Much like the statesmans apologies, they do not want to borrow money, they want a gift with no strings attached, where my going wrong. I agree with everything you just said, maybe we have the fedex to the mailing voting rather than Postal Service. Its a missed manage government agency. When i came to washington 36 37 years ago i was riding why we needed to prioritize the Postal Service, we shouldve done it long ago. The real issue that came out in the hearing today and i saw some of it, not all of it was the whole dispute of whether or not meal in balloting is going to lead to widespread fraud and thats the point the donald trump made in his statement which is youre going to have people, first of all when you mailing voting its hard to keep track of whos had their hands on the ballot in the other problem is how do you prevent people from voting by mail and as President Trump said on election day they vote again. His reasons with all sorts of complications, weve seen in other states that have mailing balloting that there is a lot of fraud. Melissa there are so many things there, first of all he mentioned in my district in the 12th district there many more than voted by mail than ever before, 50 more in total than those who showed up, they did not know for six weeks until after the election, they had not finished counting everything, i was going to say they did not know who won but i dont take whatever know who won because they brought a fifth of the ballots when they came in because there was something wrong with them and there were no republicans anywhere in sight, this is the democratic primary between two democrats and the democratic city and there is still loss about it, everyone is upset and i dont think we will ever know who won. Hes saying what if that happens on a national scale, were already burning down cities, what happens if six weeks go by, can you imagine now when things are so much more amped up that we have a situation where we have people counting ballots afterwards what would happen . This is a great point that you make, this has a Big Stock Market and investor implication. People dont realize what happened on Election Night, lets go back to Election Night and 2016, remember when it looked like donald trump was going to win out around 11 or 12 00 p. M. Eastern time, the stock market, i dont know if you remember this, it fell by 700point. People were confused at why that happened, some people said the stock market does not want donald trump to be president , thats not why the stock market fell, the reason it fell because Hillary Clinton would not come out and concede the race, i think it was two in the morning and a lot of people thought we would have a contested election. My point is the worst thing for the Financial Market is to have the uncertainty that you are talking about, we dont know who the winner of the election is for one or two or 34 or five weeks afterwards, because of social chaos and a lot of financial problems. Melissa it is true, the markets tell the truth, people can say who theyre going to vote for or not but when youre betting with your money it is real. I was on the air with david asman overnight when that happened and we sell the stock market and we heard nobel prizewinning economist say in the short answer is never, both david asman and i said if we could we would buy with both hands right now because when things open tomorrow and when President Trump is affirmed as the winner, by then he had been when they stop trading, the market is going to go up because people understand whether you like him or hate him that he is good for the economy, good for business, good for the stock market. One thing on that, one thing on that, its an important point, the decline in that stock market as soon as hillary came out at two in the morning and conceded and people realized we were gonna have a contested election thats when he saw the future is not going to go up and the next morning i forget it was 800point, one of the biggest singlepoint rises in the stock market ever. My point isnt even a partisan one, the markets do not like the uncertainty about who is actually won the election. Melissa you are absolutely right. When you think happens here in terms of the way we vote, it feels like a runaway train where if youre saying a rational person as theyve done on the show before, you can go in google, how do i vote absentee in my state which i did then it lets you, theres a pulldown menu, i pulled on new york, i was able to get the instructions. Out the way to do it and it tells you where to mail it, were weeks and weeks in advance. I will get my balance and plenty of time, you can hang onto it you dont devote right away, but when you are ready and mail it in or drop it in the box, whatever you can do. They are acting like people are not going to be able to vote because of coded and are going to be denied their chance, when really if you feel like youre not going to go in person, you can make a plan and the democrat said that this week, make your plan to vote, will people do that or will it be chaos. What is your prediction . I think the compromise between the democrats and the republicans in terms of the mailing balloting is to do exactly what you suggested, millions of americans will do which is absentee balloting, its a very orderly process, you request the ballot, the question is you requested the ballot rather than the government, i think that is a perfectly acceptable compromise about how we make sure that everybody it was eligible to vote does vote but not fraudulent voting, that is real, the democrats talk about the challenges to our democracy, how about that when you have millions of fraudulent votes . Thank you so much for coming on here, have a great weekend. Connell over to you. Connell we will stay on the race for the white house, its a been all about joe biden and next week the focus shifts to President Trump, weve been out speaking the swing state voters the last few days, trying to figure out where they stand on the issues and also which candidate they might be leaning towards voting for.

This is the trump support at the beginning, over the two years i started to distance myself with a lot of the decisions he made in the controversy that he is going through in his office. Who are you supporting this year . Right now trump. Why do you say right now. Because i do not love him but i love not love, a republican government is more supportive for my family right now. I think is a smart man in the decisions he makes and sometimes heat and speaks im embarrassed. Who are you for. I havent decided. What do you think about. Im trying to look at both candidates and see which ones make the difference and will have to work into happen. Who did you vote for lost time trump. Trump. That was lost time. After i saw my 401k data different, you have to look at those options. The voters you spoke to in wisconsin in pennsylvania throughout the week, some of them are and decided, the last guy even though his 401k has done well since joe biden being from scranton pennsylvania has not given up on him yet, that was this week and next a heading to swing states in North Carolina, georgia and then florida, President Trump is planning to visit North Carolina the same day we will be there when the republican National Convention kicks off on monday. You look at the polls, joe biden leading in North Carolina and biden leasin leading in floridad tied in georgia which is a good position for biden burger has been read over the years but democrats are trying to swing in their favor this time. Lets bring john bussey in the wall street journal editor to talk about this. We wanted to play back the voters that we had heard from throughout the week, that was all before joe biden speech last night and for some of the undecided voters that all voted for trump last time around, some of them had not quite jumped on biden bandwagon yet even though they soured on trump erie the question becomes did biden do enough to sway some of them last night. We will see, that was the intent of that speech with a convention before including a lot of republicans, some just like the republicans that you spoke to just now, the trump voters that you just spoke to, they said were switching our vote from trump to biden. That was the intent of the convention and of the biden speech was to spread them very wide to say there is a home in here for you from a policy standpoint but also from a person in, its going to be very interesting because now you respond to that at the republican National Convention, they had a chance to see what the democrats did and they will learn from that and deploy their strategy in the coming weeks. Connell we will be in some of those states and the president going to North Carolina will be there, georgia he has to win and i think the same goes for florida, if youre President Trump you mention how biden tried to appeal to the undecid undecided, the president usually in the Campaign Setting goes after the base to solidify thats his instinct i think, but next week you think he needs to move to more of the people who have not made up their mind . Im not so sure, there is an excellent article right now with aaron fit there and alex that look at the number of what trump has to do and what trump is trying to do right now, their strategy is directed at this, that is maybe not going toward the undecided, not try to get democrats that are disinfected from the Democratic Party to vote for trump. But instead to get a much greater turnout of that base that you just talked about because 2016, not only showed that a lot of Traditional Democratic voters it did not turn out but the group that traditionally votes for President Trump that is noncollegeeducated, people with jobs, that group did not turn out excessively in 2016, there is a lot of room for him to generate more enthusiasm among the base within the base to get bigger turnout. For example this is from Bookings Institute numbers that is in the wall street journal story, 62 of nonvoters in pennsylvania were noncollegeeducated working people, 62 , similarly in michigan, 62 in wisconsin. He won by a tiny margin, doubling down on his appeal to the base at the republican National Convention. Connell i think one of the challenges, just popped into my mind as you are speaking, two or three people in pennsylvania that i spoke with and we did not put them on the air, the reason why they said i never voted in my life and i will not start now, we chuckled and walked away. If those are the people and they have not voted in the 60 , will they actually vote this time, maybe there nonvoters. Thats entirely possible. The democrats also this is a potential hundred for trump strategy in a purely more deeply to this group, the democrats also have a large number of nonvoters who have traditionally voted democratic in their camp as well, they will be going after the convention was all about that. You may see a surge in the democratic side just as you might see a surge in the republican side if President Trump is successful in getting the nonvoters that are traditionally in his camp to actually go to the polls. We proven its tough to figure this out in normal times in our time to do it in the middle of a pandemic with virtual conventions. Thank you john bussey ahead of the rnc next week.

Melissa Restaurant Owners still fighting for their livelihood, 100 new york eateries planning to file a lawsuit for andrew cuomo and bill de blasio to allow Indoor Dining. Here is Restaurant Owner tom and his attorney lou. You will have to forgive me im try said that wrong. Let me start with you, how frustrating has this been for you when they continue to not even give guidance. About when they are going to open indoor restaurant and i have had all four phases, they took it out of the running and as most recently, i keep asking the question of any lawmaker i can get a hold of, there is no guidance when we can go back inside, what is that like . Is incredibly frustrating, how do you plant something when there is no plan. Our industry is hard enough as it is and when we have these obstacles in front of us, we cannot plan for it. What are you ordering, i know in jersey it was supposed to open and 84 they pulled the rug out from every restaurant in jersey, how do you recover from that, thats thousands and thousands of dollars, that is one instance, we dealt with this since the spring. Melissa yeah, i was talking yesterday to a Restaurant Owner in my neighborhood and he was saying he is able to put tables outside but if it starts to rain and they have to pull everything back in, that is a whole nights receipts gone, all the groceries gone bad, its everybody trying really hard to find a way to stay in business but its only going to get harder as the weather changes. What kind of hoped you think you have a prevailing or getting anything done and pushing them forward by filing the lawsuit. Thank you for having us. It is taking the fight to them, these decisions by the governor and the mayor have completely been unconstitutional the arbitrary, to put point blankly, they have not made a decision that makes any sense whatsoever when it comes to the restaurant business. Were hoping that a classaction suit with hundreds of Restaurant Owners in Staten Island and brooklyn can at least push them in the right direction and make them realize what these poor men and women are going through. A local restaurant is the first place the little leagues go when they need a donation. Its the first place somebody turns to when they have to have a fundraiser for a sick child or a sick family member. They are not just moneymaker billionaires, they are struggling with this. To make a decision to close them unilaterally and not allow them to earn a living is just completely, completely arbitrary and borderline reckless. It is ruining our neighborhood, is ruining their way of life. You know other folks that i talked to say there are two things going on, you cannot open the restaurant inside so youre totally depend on the weather. Also more than 1 Million People have left new york and not coming back. As some schools do not open now into the fall, our mayor and our governor have not given anyone a reason to come back, we all dont have to work at our jobs anymore, i am working from home and so many people are working from home. There is not a reason to come back, Indoor Dining, the excitement around new york, going to restaurants and going to the theater and all the things that make people want to live here, they have driven out of business. What would you say to our lawmakers about the future of our community if they do not get with it and start to help people like you, what does the future hold . Who knows, you dont know, i dont know, nobody knows. There is no rhyme or reason for what is happening right now. We can go to a restaurant 20 nights out of manhattan and sit inside, we can go to long island, connecticut, upstate new york, why not new york city, this is the greatest city in the world. This is what new york city is about, dining, nightlife and entertainment. Why on earth is 50 Indoor Dining okay in long island on one side of the street and then on queens not allowed. It makes no sense, 50 is 50 . Social distancing is the same in Staten Island, brooklyn, manhattan, queens and the bronx as it is in westchester in lake george new york. Theres no rhyme or reason, cannot understand why this is not moving forward. Maybe if we let everybody come in to eat and they create a riot, everything would be okay, i guess we would not get by. Melissa we dont want to advocate i understand the point you are making we dont want to advocate for anything like that but i understand what youre saying, the real point is to get their attention and get them to think about it and we want a better audience know that we did reach out to the governor and the Mayors Office and thats a point to get their attention and get them to the table and listening, we have not heard back but we hope to hear from them and we would love to have either the governor or the mayor or anyone who is involved in this decision, on the show and talk to us, we need to get the dialogue going so these people can stay in business. Thank you for coming on, keep us updated. Connell we also have the highest profile setting in operation varsity blues.

Melissa thank you for that. Connell over to you. Connell this could be one of the biggest issues if you think about and the 2020 election, the u. S. Relationship with china, he barely came up this week during the democratic National Convention, the term campaign, they see that as an opening to take further ownership of the issue of the Republican Convention next week in a detail in a moment but first rich edson at the state department. Good afternoon and the president is pointing the sounds of the former Vice President and democrats were almost avoiding the record on china and the weeklong convention, the president sees this as an opportunity to continue to repeat his attacks on Vice President biden and china. China was never mentioned in any way shape or form, china will own our country if he gets elected, they will own our country. We are not going to let that happen. You seen the intelligence reports, china very much wants joe biden to win. After the spread of the coronavirus, the Trump Administration has led an aggressive Foreign Policy towards china announcing sanctions on Chinese Government officials with mass human rights abuses shutting the chinese consulate in houston forcing tiktok to divest in the u. S. Until it to another company in the International Campaign against Chinese Tech Company huawei, biden says President Trump is cozying up to dictato dictators, democrats point to accusations from former National Security advisor john bolton and trump told chinese she should ping to continue building concentration camps in chinas mass oppression of uighurs in shandong, trevor administration has eroded american credibility and influence around the world make it more difficult to Counter China and in the spring he wrote the United States does not need to get tough with china, the most effective way to beat the challenge is to build a united front of u. S. Allies. Up next to Republican Convention that is next week when they have an opportunity to talk about china if they so desire. Back to you. Connell steve forbes is with us affords media chairman, what to think, is there an opening for President Trump that the democrats have left on china . If so, how does he exploit that or take advantage of it next week . The opening is huge, you can drive in the big dump truck through that, with the rights in the cities domestically. In terms of china, biden was on tape several years ago saying whats the big deal, we are cozy with china, he dismissed the thing, you will see that in campaign ads, its running already, the key thing what do we do about china, trump whether you like it or not has taken effective steps on a number of fronts, more steps will be taken in the South China Sea and other areas where china has a very aggressive militarily, this gets to the u. S. Military buildup, its been on defunding the police, what about the proposal to defend the military at a time when we need a stronger military than any time since the cold war. Especially with the navy in the South China Sea and elsewhere. When it comes to china and you mention the issues, he did a lot of other can be tiktok, trade, human rights, you name it, it is out there but should the president hone in on one or two of those or does he go in a direction of talking about the virus and how we think the chinese are to blame for the virus and his handling of that can be a weak point politically. And the shifting of the blame next week to his advantage . They bring up the virus and as is done in the past what he did in january with the democrats silent or actively opposed to it. I think what he can really have fun with in terms of politics is where does joe biden stand on the South China Sea, where it is a stand on tiktok and huawei, put some real things on the table, where is trump going wrong with dealing with china in that way you pinpoint, what are the specifics, one thing about the Democratic Convention last week and this week, they did not have a lot of specifics, they had a couple of things but that was it, people are going to want to know what exactly are you going to do, what is biden going to do in terms of presenting the united front in bringing in a closer relationship as were establishing with india, vietnam and elsewhere, they used to say before the vegans tried to educate us, where is the beef on this. Thats exactly what they used to say. It was not just china this week, the democrats did not really talk that much about Foreign Policy at all. They had people like john kerry and the former secretary of state, biden himself experienced Foreign Policy but they do not focus on that, i would assume because they think other issues are more beneficial and they can win without it. What did you make of that . They talk about how the relationships of the allies are afraid but what specifically do they have in mind, john kerry brought up the deal on the architect of the deal with the nuclear weapons, we know what a sham that was, again trump can say to biden, you gave iran 150 billion, most of it went to terrorism and stirring up trouble in the middle east and spilling a lot of blood, what exactly are you going to do about that, in terms of inspectors, one of the things that that agreement did not provide was allowing spot inspections anytime anywhere in iran. You were there, why did you fix that people know National Security is important and on the russian front they say hes cozy with putin. But trump can point out in terms of weapons to ukraine, the Trump Administration did far more than Barack Obama Biden administration. In other issues. Again get the specifics, what are you going to do differently, dont just say will have a united front and everything will be cozy rosie. No, sir, not on this world. Trump can say when it comes to getting real things done on russia, weve done more than Previous Administration and remember until the election it was talk of reset with russia and we will be friends with russia, we will have a new relationship with russia. We had a new one but not what they outlined eight years befo before. Connell we will see what happens next week, especially with china the Trump Administration or the president himself thinks their opening there on a number of different fronts, we will see how much it comes up next week.
