bill: well, pretty simple. that s right. we need to not only finish it and completely annihilate them i want to see their leadership annihilated. one question i have is where the baghdadi, the leader of isis. and then setting the conditions on the ground so that we don t have a reemergence. isis came about whether president obama completely ripped everyone out of iraq and al qaeda at that time was completely on its back foot and then isis emerged from what was al qaeda. we have to prevent that from happening again. look, we all want the soldiers to come home but we have to set the conditions that we don t have isis 3.0. bill: two more things. the saudis don t want iran to move in there. they have to a degree. but if you vacate you have left a playing field entirely wide open. when the united states leaves a vacuum it is filled with bad actors. it will be iran, russia and assad regime and crush the
difficult. bill: the commander-in-chief is aware of that. i m certain that general mattis, the central command responsible for the middle east and the special operations commander are advising him of that. i hope it is a chess move to get others not only to support the troops on the ground. the saudis and others, but also the reconstruction cost. i think this is what set the president down the road when he found out that we had pledged over $200 million to rebuild syria and the region does need to step up in that regard in a big way. bill: the leader of saudi arabia has been in the u.s. for two weeks, three weeks at a time here with a lot of shall we say politicking and meeting and greeting. again we re reading between the lines to figure this out. we re not leaving isis, watch this year. we re in syria to fight isis. that s our mission. the mission isn t over. we re going to complete that mission.
incompetent people who represented the u.s. now we have a trade deficit of $500 billion a year with intellectual property theft of another $300 billion. we cannot let this continue. bill: greg palkot picks up the story live in london. greg, what s happening? hi, bill. if it is not a trade war yet, it is certainly a potential trade spat. china putting 25% tariffs on as you noted, $50 billion worth of exports from the u.s. over 100 key products like soybeans, airplanes, cars, chemicals. economists were surpriefsed how fast china came out with these 11 hours after the u.s. put tariffs on $50 billion worth of exports from china. they were surprised how politically tactical the chinese tariffs were hitting products especially agriculture coming from key president trump supporting states. remember, this is the second
i ll send the military down there. i can do it and use the national guard and if you think it s a waste of resources and a waste of time, let s get about going through the process that i want to have happen, and build the darn wall. bill: here is ken paxton texas a.g. he have was with shannon last night and said this. federal issue. if the president thinks national guard will help us, given the situation in mexico and this caravan of people, certainly we re open to that. if it provides greater security and protects our citizens. bill: okay. then this tweet comes out. our border laws are very weak while those in mexico and canada are very strong. congress must change these laws now. democrats stand in our way. they want people to pour into our country unchecked. crime, we ll be taking strong action today. what are they going to do? we might see as we ve been discussing this deployment to the southern border. we heard from william la jeunesse in his report that
but the ultimate goal and long-term benefits i would love to see him articulate that to the american public beyond tweets. bill: i wonder if they work. you think about the time frame. we re in april. a mid-term election seven months from now. you don t want to step on the message of the tax reform plan that was passed and it s doing it right now. if you negotiate and get a deal over the next two or three months you lay the ground work late summer, fall and the issue is off the table. heather: jobs report 241,000 jobs created last month. 65,000 in goods producing. good news amazing. this is headlines and speculation and driving the market down. president trump can get them both on the same page going into the mid-terms one heck of a telling. you believe there are good indicators for the economy, right? great, strong, powerful. we got a report on jobs out of this world, phenomenal. bill: see you on fox business. heather: coming up outrage
