high profile television interviewer and you feel the interviewer is mischaracterizing your identity or gender, my advice and i say this in a nice friendly respectful way is say something. don t pretend it s all gone very well and shake his hand afterwards and thank him, and then go off five days later and ignite a social media firestorm of abuse in his direction. that isn t fair either. so i don t try and equate my struggle in life with yours. the i ve had it pretty easy by comparison. your book remains a great, inspiring book. i remain a great supporter of the transgender community. i hope we can both move on from this. i appreciate you coming back on the show tonight. thank you. thank you. when we come back, jerry seinfeld. is he a victim of political correctness run amuck? this is what he said to buzz feed. i have no interest in gender or race or anything like that. but everyone else is kind of with their little calculating, is this time exact right mix?

republicans on your way to a deal. you have to have reform of medicare, tied with the tax increase for the rich. that s the deal. everybody knows it s the deal. it s doing it in a respectful way that gets you there. it s also because the other priority, carly, you don t get to economic growth unless you find a way for the government to start investing more on infrastructure, on things that are going to create jobs, even in the energy sector. absolutely. look, i let us accept reverend al s point and the president s point about fairness. but equally it is not fair that public employee union pensions and benefits are so rich now that cities are going bankrupt and college tuition is going up 25% and 30%. and police and firefighters are being cut. there s a lot that isn t fair right now. and a lot of where money is being spent isn t fair either. so we ve got to deal with both sides of the equation. and, yes, we have to get to growth.
