whether the russians have something on this president or not, no one really knows, but the way he behaves, there is a clear signal that the russians have something on him. you called yesterday, barring such things as assassinations and the like, perhaps the worst day of the modern era of the presidency. former cia director brennan said his behavior was treasonous. do you use that word? well, i think i think treasonous is a word, you know, that requires in the law an awful lot to be able to make that case. i think this was more of a case of incompetence. that the president rather than preparing for that kind of high-level summit, rather than understanding the history behind that kind of summit, rather than reading into the issues, rather than following the advice, i m sure, of those around him, his
procedures not related to the election. roe v. wade is an important precedent and it is settled law. host of hill tv, andy card with also with me, member of the administration of george w. bush, andy card, is this issue of the next supreme court justice, andy, how much does that one issue now define the midterm election? it s going to be a huge definition of this presidency and the election in the campaign. there was a big issue in the campaign that elected donald trump that i think is going to get even more significant as we move to this offyear election, where the president isn t up, but members of congress are and the majority of the senate. it s going to be a very important issue and i hope the president recognizes the obligation he has to pick someone who is good. i think he does. i m very impressed with the 25 names he s circulated and
prevails and i m going on step back to the floor to vote. i look forward to updating you. do you have to run or can i ask one more question? sure. to get your reaction from mike rogers who says president trump has not ordered him to confront russian meddling at the source. what did you make of those stunning remarks? leadership starts at the top but we re not completely helpless. if the president isn t up for doing it, congress must show that we are up for doing night unified way and do all we can to frequent ballot box. we know the russians haven t lost. thanks for joining us. all right. we have a lot of breaking news we re following.
now voters are saying it s trump economy. what do you think of that? so first and foremost every president always gets too much credit when things are going well and too much blame when they are going poorly. i will be as nonpartisan as i can there. the fact of the matter is, this isn t up for debate there is a deregulatory environment going on in corporate america that is highly stimulative to business. ceo confidence, their willingness to put into business investment is something i haven t seen in a decade. the reason is clearly they don t feel they are going to run into unnecessary head winds. we call it personnel is policy. he has a personnel in his cabinet basically supportive of overall growth. i don t think they felt with a that i in the prior administration u it s a big deal. griff: 30%, that s how much the stock markets have been up since president trump took over. david bahnsen, thank you very much. great new book crisis of responsibility. it s fascinating to tell us
do detain these inmates in california 75,000 bucks a year to hold an individual and then i think from the moral perspective i really do believe we re a nation of immigrants. i believe diversity brings great things to this country and i don t see it being a moral win. if states want to make their own immigration policy they should attempt to sue seed from the undown. they don t have the authority who comes in this country and who doesn t because they re states. the federal government has supremacy on this and i think it will be a major constitutional issue when it goes to the supreme court because they simply don t have the right. whether you are a liberal, republican or conservative on this this isn t up for debate. this is a law. he campaigned on states rights and said he would be a states rights president. the federal government has jurisdiction over this issue. we have the situation
