balance for the united states. neil: they deny the report by the treasury getting involved. even though he poured cold water on the store the market in futures looking towards monday, lord knows if it will up but if they didn t react badly the futures are up a little bit. neil: it pooh-poohed the report that whatever you gain is reversed. china does move the markets. on the other hand the economy is so strong on its own that even when the white house says we are not making as much progress as blue big said we are. no denying with this shutdown, government workers losing $1 billion in income. i m talking pulled the emotion out of the thing. they were up dramatically.
neil: thank you very much for your service. we appreciate it. a major government shutdown a good chunk of it for the better part of a month, you would think wall street was selling off this news. since all this started the dow is up better than 8%. what is really happening here? let s get a read from that, we have retail watcher, my buddy and foxbusiness friend on his business card. what is going on here. why does the market move up on this? despite hysteria in the media it is not affecting the economy that much. what is affecting the economy is the strength of the economy. neil: a big draw for those who illegally want to get in. good point. one of the changes that was
because he seems to be milking it right now. neil: what did you think of that? did he make any effort to come to you to talk to you? yeah, well, i think this is the danger that we have in this country. this is an example of it. so the left controls not only the universities in this country, but they also control hollywood in this country. if he s proven to have not told the whole truth about the fact that campaigns look for dirt and if someone offers it, you listen to them, nobody s going to be surprised. there are some things in politics that you just take for grant granted. i think if there s a scintilla of evidence that the president colluded with the russians and he had that evidence the entire world would already know. there have been rumors circulating that you re considering a presidential run in 2020. is that true? i m focusing on the next few
