country. these are one of the things to watch come tuesday night, to see whether or not they can maintain that. whether or not that board can do a million things. sandra: when it wants to! [laughter] we will have more on that tomorrow. that s it for us. outnumbered starts now. melissa: fox news alert, with just five days to go into the high-stakes midterms, president trump last night campaign blitz of 11 rallies in the home stretch, firing up the crowd in florida. a battleground state becoming a big focus in this election cycle. this is to be 25, i melissa francis preet here today s fox business network anchor dagen mcdowell, fox news contributor lisa boothe, fox news contributor jessica tarlov. and from the couch, fox news political analyst, cohost of the five, juan williams. [laughter] i love it! that was a good move.
and the actual action. melissa: let s take a trip down history road for a moment here. here is hillary clinton 60 minutes. have you always told the truth? i have always tried to. always, always. some people are going to call that wiggle room that you just gave yourself. always. jimmy carter said i will never lie to you. you are acting me to say have i ever? i don t believe i ever have. i don t believe i ever have, i don t believe i ever will. lisa: can i get in here? i think his comment is being taken entirely out of context. if you look at what he said i m going to make sure and reading to get it right. he said sometimes it turns out were something happens, it s different or there is a change. but i always like to be truthful. the point he s making, you are only as good as the information you have in front of you. the information can change. really insincerely, sometimes information changes. for him to point to abc and says sometimes your truths aren t
100% true. look at the epic mistake regarding michael flynn, which is a massive, monumental error on behalf of abc. i think his comment is being taken out of context. melissa: that s true. what s the difference between his response and hillary clinton s response that we displayed? jessica: the magnitude. donald trump has broken the fact-checking machine. dagen: or obama. jessica: listen, i think actually when you can pick out two or three things you want to say, those democrat presidents next to the magnitude of it that he is maintaining he won the popular vote and his crowd size of the inauguration? he can t tell the truth about the most basic things. he is right to point out the media dagen: this is what is called asymmetric outrage on the left. jessica: i m not outraged, i m excepting dagen: plenty of other people. when president obama said if you like the plan you have, you can keep it. if you like the doctor you have,

people who are fleeing dagen: it s not wag the dog, is not something he made up. they are coming for the border. juan: it is a sad lot of people and it requires our compassion. melissa: when you talk about the economy not working as a message, it s interesting because when something is fixed and good, people aren t enraged by it. the fact that things are better economically, when you look at gdp and you look at the street numbers that are coming out of the federal reserve and elsewhere which is math it is good. people are less fired up about that. i think what s interesting is, when you look at the people that are coming toward the border and you say it s a humanitarian crisis and i think there s no doubt about that but what s in people s minds as they are watching two more caravans come up behind this one. you have democrats making fun of people or calling them racist for being concerned about these groups that are coming in, and you may not talk about it a lot becau
