more nationalistic. here s what the president had to say about all this. we re having a little squabble with china because we ve been treated very unfairly for many, many decades, for actually a long time. and it should have been handled a long time ago, and it wasn t, and we ll handle it now. chris: senator, how worried are you about the escalating trade war with china? chris, thanks for having me. listen, i put china in a distinct the category separate from the rest of the entire world. and i do that because of the facts in the case, right? china s the world s second biggest economy, it s a revisionist power. it s now, for the first time, attempting to be the able to project force, it s intimidating neighbors, it s disrupting american institutions, and it s engaged in some egregious economic behavior; the theft of intellectual property in various ways. so i actually think the president is right to challenge china.
from ex-boyfriends. and as my husband pointed out, it s not an expanding base. i will find a way to win. no one thought a peanut farmer from georgia would win. jimmy carter pointed out he had less support at this point than i do. no one thought a guy named barack obama could become president. this is you know politics, it s a long road. chris: it s forever. listen, it is a snapshot of where we are at this point. i m not counting you out. that s why you re here for the sunday sit-down. thank you for taking my. always good to talk with you. up next, we ll bring in our sunday group to discuss the growing 2020 field and a frontrunner who keeps building his lead. plus, what would you like to ask the panel about alabama s strict new abortion law, just go to facebook or twitter at fox news sunday and we may use your question on the air. as fox news sunday reports live from stevens high school in claremont, new hampshire.
into resistance even amongst people of his own party on the hill. but i think he s recognized what he s been doing is not going to work politically this is all about 2020, laying down a marker so he can say i have put forward an immigration plan and use it against whichever democrat emergings from this gigantic field. one of the great frustrations chris: you know what? save that thought. [laughter] thank you. chris: up next, our power player of the week. a biographer who has captured the essence of power, how to get it and use it in his award-winning books on lbj. smith. or this john smith. or any of the other hundreds of john smiths that are humana medicare advantage members. no, it s this john smith. who we paired with a humana team member to help address his own specific health needs. at humana, we take a personal approach to your health, to provide care that s just as unique as you are.
basically a doctor would be holding a baby and kill that baby. that s illegal under the law. that is already a crime. i know this. i m a former prosecutor. that is a crime. chris: back to you. are you okay let me ask you. i understand the argument against that. what i m asking you is, are you okay with abortions after 24 weeks? to protect the life and the health of the mother. that is exactly what the supreme court ruling said. and i am okay with that. but i just think it s really important, chris, for your fox viewers to know, because there s so much misinformation out there. that what the laws do is extreme. there are a number of republicans who said they are opposed though them. they are extreme. then you have the president misleading the public and telling them that this is about basically killing a baby after a baby is born. that is not what this is about. that is a crime.
as a bailout to farmers. here s the president s message that he sent to farmers this week. they ll be plant, they ll be able to sell forless less, and they ll make the same amount of money until such time as it s all straightened out. chris: but you call this plan, quote your words very bad policy. why? yeah. i think it s bad policy to, you know, start just sending checks to farmers or any segment of the economy. what i think we ought to be doing is working with allies, working with friendly countries, finding more markets, opening up more markets, taking down trade barriers and creating an opportunity for our farmers to sell their products around the world rather than sending them a check from the taxpayers. chris: generally speaking, it s fair to say you re a free trader. you were a former president of the club for growth. what are your thoughts about the president s trade policy and his willingness in an effort to try to and he says that, to try
