Lauren do you think President Trump will be able to set the narrative after a pretty tough week . Theres no doubt. Look, our european counterparts, the leaders of the world that donald trump is going to meet with at the g7 and the religious leaders of the world are not so much concerned about the domestic policies and scabbles in america. We are back in the middle east to have a positive influence. Nicole what could be some of the major breakthroughs on the trip and can there be any . I think there could be breakthroughs. Discussing the cussing the commonnal for people to live in peace and security. Thats a positive message to send not only to the region but the world. When he meets with nato allies, we all have to hang together and that means cooperation and when he meets with g7, he has to say, look, america is back, we are willing to do our part and economic recovery is needed not only in america but in the world. Lauren your argument that foreign leaders are as concerned with domestic politics that we have here particularly the volatility we have seen recently. Would he be able to avoid the domestic questions . I think he will because if the president keeps to his message which is a positive one, i dont think he can be distracted from getting the kind of messages through that are expected on this trip. So, of course, hes going to be dogged by questions but his actions are going to speak volume. Nicole what is he expect today focus on with the leader of saudi arabia . Well, look, we are about to enter into a new relationship with the saudis totep up me on their part. Theyve now entered into an agreement to buy a military arms from us which means that theyre going to be able to telephoned their country in the region more than calling on america to do it and thats an Important Message to send because the saudis have been a stabilizing force in the middle east and thats kind of cooperation that we need. Less of america and more of a neighborhood policing, if you will, of their own neighborhoods. Lauren its interesting, most president s take first trip to canada and mexico and trump is going to saudi arabia. What do you expect him to say about iran in. Iran has to be kept in check and thats why we have to make sure allies in the region are strong, Strong Enough not only to standby themselves but also pull their weight in the region. So we have to remember also that President Trump has already met with the leaders of mexico and canada. Lauren true. Before he took his first trip overseas.

So, yeah, you will continue to see moves like this over and over again. Nicole explain the qualities of the equity that is you are favoring at this point. Is it growth stock over value stocks, can you explain that . We have seen folks moving to financial anbullish on technologytocks. So i think youre going to continue to see those moves.

Nicole, thats a look at whats happening now. Nicole President Trump calling the investigation into the administrations relationship with russia a witch hunt. Joining us now brad, former Deputy Assistant to president george w. Bush, good morning, brad. Good morning. Nicole so is this a witch hunt . It is a witch hunt because the evidence that we have seen to date doesnt lend itself that any crimes have been committed. The president had the right to fire the fbi director for any reason or no reason at all. The things that were discussed with the russians certainly within the president s purview to do that and there is no there there as far as the president is concerned but the fbi Deputy Director and the attorney general decided that there would be a special counsel. Thats fine, but its a blessing and a curse. A blessing in the sense that its going to be taken out of the headlines and a curse that we lost the transparency over the congressional oversight because now witnesses and evidence will not be able to congress. Lauren was special counsel needed here . Of course not. The Justice Department should have done job with personnel at hand and congress in a parallel effort had investigations. There should have been a twotrack system and now its just one track with a special counsel thats basically going to conduct their business in secret. Nicole Justice Department has given mueller sweeping powers to investigate and prosecute and trump making note that there was nothing like this in the Obama Administration or the clinton administration, really saying, this is really unusual and is there too much power being given . I think there is. First of all, bob mueller was not elect today any position, hes now being appointed. Hes a sub contractor, if you will, of t justice. Too much power for an individual to have. Those people who were charged with doing their jobs as a career should be doing those jobs. Thats why we have a Justice Department. We shouldnt be subcontracting work to individuals. Lauren do you think james comey will testify next week . I think a lot of that is going to be up to bob mueeeller. He will take charge. If anything, comey will testify behind closed doors and not testify in public. Nicole yes or no, lieberman, good choice . Great choice. Im a good friend of Joe Lieberman and i think it would be an excellent choice as fbi director. Lauren coming up, tornado season in the midwest and oklahoma got slammed with more storms.
