things are not getting better for the people who are struggling in this economy. and i think the democrats need to be making that message forcefully. i wish he was making a forceful message like you just did, he should be pushing the people who are swirling in cash, use it to build plants and equipment, to be at optimistic on the economy as trump talks, as he talks. thank you, ambassador mike froman, for your service to the country. ben, thank you as well. you and jill are sticking with us. next, trump versus the world. i ll fight anybody in the house for a dollar. remember this photo from the last g7, this is like one of those pictures you see in bar windows, like one of the republican presidents sitting there with his arms crossed defiantly in front of other world leaders. i would put my money on merkel. here we go again, america s allies are bracing for another contention summit, a stormy one other there in france and trying to figure out how to keep trump from blowing it up.
