table and canada s our biggest trading partner, they re going to come to the table and everybody poo pooed this when he started down this path. he can never do anything right. i think that s part of it. leland: at some level are we getting voters and our listeners and our viewers enough credit? when you sit here and continue to say blame the mainstream media, people are smart. if their pocketbooks are full and they re feeling good and they re buying stuff and they feel like they re going to get a promotion and a raise at work, do they really care what the mainstream media tell them? well, overall, no. and i think america s pretty darn happy right now. people are upbeat. the economy is roaring. leland: why isn t that reflected if people are so happy, why isn t it reflected do you think in the polling numbers? well, i m not sure why the african american community is not higher. they re doing much better. so is the hispanic community.
potentially significant. that s what i interpret from davis tweet but i think the facts matter here more than the spin. well, for sure. do you obviously the president and michael cohen who used to talk probably daily are no longer speaking to one another. that s sort of a given. but do you see this as a way of them or michael cohen trying to speak to the president through the air waves and trying to gauge his temperature? i think that s part of it. i think it s been clear that michael cohen feels somewhat betrayed by the president, cut loose, ignored, demeaned. and you know, that one issue that s hovering in the air is the possibility of a pardon. rudy jewgiuliani poo pooed the a and it would be controversial to give michael cohen a pardon. but that s really the only thing that trump can do for cohen at
against the president also were part of the initial russian investigation. but you ll be kidding yourself if you think this doesn t do a lot of damage to the institutions that are now looking at the president. this gives a face to many of what the deep state looks like. remarkable words from senator graham who previously has poo-pooed this idea of there being a deep state. do you think that s a fair argument? no, i don t. i think it might hurt the fbi some, even though the fbi has not been seen through this report of having done wrong. certainly comey was then subordinate. he was extremely careless, to use his words, about hillary clinton. ironically he was the one that was extremely careless. but the fbi is an honorable institution, has a lot of really fine men and women working for it. if people get that, it s because the president is trying to put it out because he wants to say that everybody in the institution is working on this
immigration. he s been very worked up about the bill that he claims he didn t want to sign, that had no funding for his number one priority, this wall. i mean, not only that, the funding that it did have said it could not be used for anything other than see-through fencing. and so, it was very easy for him to get worked up by what s on the circulating in conservative media right now, which is dejection about his immigration policies not passing. and so, this is this is classic trump. i don t we re going to be having this same conversation, anderson, a year from now, assuming he s still in office. this is who he is yeah, go ahead. molly, i wonder how worried do you think he is about the base? i talked to chris from newsmax, who was down in mar-a-lago, who kind of poo-pooed the notion that he s getting this message, that he needs to be fearful of being too soft on immigration, that he s not too soft on immigration, but do you think
these jobs, want these jobs, are willing to put their credibility on the line to join an administration that has seen the level of turnover and chaos this administration has seen. speaking as a future director of nasa, i do find that somewhat odd. i have no problem with going outside traditional sources of employment. there are times when that s actually a good idea. there are times when bringing in people with a fresh face may not actually with mired in the past, is a good idea. when you look at mr. kudlow who, you know, back in 2007, poo-pooed the whole idea, and said the housing market would be in great shape. it s important to look at the credentials that the president is reaching out for, but let s remember. trump is supposedly to have said, he perceives life as a tv show where he wins and somebody
