republicans for, you know, a flat tax or much lower rates, that s a central point of division between whoever the republican nominee is, and, by the way, one other quick thing, donald trump, 45% tariff? i mean, that would kill the economy. that would kill the economy. that s almost worse than the 92% tax rate. i m glad you mentioned ben carson s tax plan. that is different than the other flat tax plans that we re seeing that it doesn t include this, you know, so-called that tax. and an additional tax on top of a flat tax. ben carson s tax plan i think is i hope you flush this out in the debate. we ll talk about that. make sure you tune into the republican debate on the fox business network this thursday, january 14th. live in north charleston, south carolina. sandra smith and trish regan host the early debate at 6:00 p.m. eastern. primetime debate at 9:00 p.m. eastern. i ll be the moderator with neil cavuto. be with us at 9:00 p.m. live in south carolina. that s the fox busines
with the most aggressive agenda vis-a-vis refugees and asylum seekers, she had to back off. the tragedy of the rape, alleged rape that took place that night made everybody fearful of i believe 100 women and a thousand men. and where were the police? which is why the police chief had to resign. but more than that. no comment from the white house on this. outrage. haven t seen much of it on main street media. you re not going to. it is extraordinary. with due respect to donald trump, obama will talk about how he s made the country great again. and he s going to talk about the unfinished agenda on he ll talk about climate change. that s going to be a big part. if you look at polling, and ask people what are your major concerns and the top 25 things, climate change is close to number 25 on the list. except for young people. you ask are jobs more important than climate change
and so, i mean they are monster, they re absolutely a behemoth in terms of economics. now, we re sitting here with 28,000 soldiers on our line, between north korea and south korea, we get paid almost nothing. we get paid peanuts. these countries, these are wealthy countries. these aren t startup nations. these are wealthy, wealthy countries. they have got to start paying up. we owe $19 trillion. $19 trillion. now with this terrible budget deal that we made recently by the republicans, they re the ones that are nobody could believe it, it went so fast. with this terrible $21 trillion in terms of what we owe very soon, okay. we just can t keep going like this. we protect as an example japan, germany, south korea, saudi arabia, all of these countries we re protecting. we re getting peanuts compared to the cost of what we re doing. we got to get more money. i m very good at that. donald trump, good to have
it out like they did the last time, they ll both talk about the future who is the strongest on national security and those types of things. and national security, the number one issue for the american people right now. absolutely. but, you know, if cruz does not really win in iowa, i don t see how he s going to be able to be taken seriously as a front-runner, establishment or anti-establishment candidate. i m not sure which of this is ted cruz wants to be. i mean, like donald trump, he pour trrtrays himself as an out and insider. he s been preparing for this debate since august 2013. a lot is riding on this for ted cruz. interesting because that tells me america is wide open, in play. a year ago, everybody said jeb bush would be the nominee. that s amazing what difference a
year makes. the guy is still hanging by a thread, so the answer to your question, i think, for jeb, this is he s running out of time. has to be now and he has to have knock this one out of the park. the other thing that is amazing to me about this race is all of the kind of political people that i talked to every day, they have been saying for six months, donald trump is going to go away. you know, this is a flash in the pan, and now i m seeing a desperation among the political class, he s not going away. and this is not a flash in the pan and the question now, everyone is asking who is an establishment especially the big funders, who do i put my money behind. who can catch trump. we don t know the answer to that now. can trump beat hillary? that s the argument all week long. he can t beat hillary. we have a poll, fox poll, that shows all of them beating hillary and bush being tied with him. she s a weak candidate and people don t think she s honest. and the other things, ben
