infisht recovery, terrible economic blow several years ago, which is attributable, actually, at its root to bad government policy. but we have women in this country who are trying to put food on the table, take care of their children, their families who are disproportionately disadvantaged by bad policies that originate from hillary clinton and her party. she supports policies that have massively transferred wealth let me finish for just a moment. i m sorry. finish real quick then we ve got to go. from american families, from american women to the powerful and the advantaged through government programs like raising health insurance cost. oh, come on. the cost of mortgages, cost of college education, the value of savings has gone down. we are punishing the middle class and working people with bad policies. and now the counter point. the counter point is mitt romney tried mightily last time
i think that they were pushing it. i also think we have an accurate understanding of where the vice president is now. he wants to do it but he also is battered and he s not really sure that he s ready to get it done. let me turn to carly fiorina because she s ripping cnn with the next presidential debate next month at the reagan library for the rules that it is using for who gets on the stage in the prime time debate. cnn wrongly in my view using polls from three weeks before the fox debate when carly fiorina was mired at 1% and only a couple polls since then showed her surging to as much as 5%. she s likely being excluded. i talked to the presidential candidate the other day. let s take a look. and so if you re a professional politician and been in the game a long time or you re a celebrity, your advantaged in national polls. if you re an outsider that most people have never heard of before i launched my campaign on may 4th, you re disadvantaged. does carly fiorina have a legiti
advantaged. the message is people do not want a politician. the republican party is of the mind as evidenced by the wise and stable poll numbers apparently of donald trump that they definitely want an outsider. knowing what we know about iowa and how people operate there that they want to shake your hand at least three times before they decide if they are going to vote for you. trump is going to get more active there. he has such a great showing without really spending a lot of time there where it is a lot of retail politicking not being there is working for him. he is going to start spending time there. he is going to start spending time there some but will start laying out policy positions. that is where things get tricky for donald trump. he has been jokingly called the post policy candidate. he is a candidate about attitude and not policies. now the policies will come forth as we saw with his difficulties in answering questions about planned parenthood and maybe he
analyst, they say, it s general jeb bush because all of these other to itsesgk they can t get heard because all he is doing is taking up all the air waves and does that mean that those who want jeb bush to be the next president, could got to be a conspiracy. if there s a trump it s a conspiracy. it s interesting. donald trump s number one target is jeb bush in all of these things he says. jeb bush can point to donald trump, he looks presidential, he can still maintain his position in the polls and is not affected directly by it. the other thing though, is that all those candidates are figuring out oh maneuver around him being in the race you. saw lindsey graham make the viral video. you see rick perry trying to make an impact by showing some contrast there pointing to donald trump as the side show and making himself seem presidential. so they re all advantaged in
the very existence of his country and that is what is driving this decision to come here and address congress. and foreign dignitaries have done this before. this is not unprecedented in any way and we have to remember, like the questioner said, the enemy is iran not israel. and those people making a show of boycotting the speech are giving comfort to the enemy in a sense. congresswoman harman, you are a big long-term supporter of israel and do you have any problem with the inviting and accepting of the speech. giving comfort to the enemy is strong and i don t agree with that at all. and i think democrats in congress love israel too. but our relationship with israel depends on a strong bipartisan relationship. having said that if i were a member of congress now i would attend the speech but i think the timing and the process of setting up the speech was poor. and that netanyahu would have been advantaged if he had decided in the last month or so to say i will come after the
