bloat in the american government, you are saying, geez, i m not sure the taxpayers are getting full benefit per dollar spent. he wants to go through every agency and department and shrink where he can. america is at its best. we have a strong military. peace through strength. the disengagement around the world in terms of national security policy over the last eight years probably made us less safe. you can go back to thomas hobbs where he said the great powers will suppress the conflict around the world. when an american superpower like us disengages from the world, that struggle, that tribal struggle that stephen talks about rises up again. he s trying to get the right balance. you are talking 30% cut. it s $15 billion. the state department has $35 billion to use. that s like a fortune 3 company, very, very big, very, very
the economy and security. some of the things we are looking for, to address tax reform and obamacare, which he was surprised to find how complex of an issue it was. he spoke to fox news about the first month or so in office. here is what he said. i think i have done great things, but i don t think i have i and my people, i don t think we ve explainedette well enough to the american public. i think i get an a in terms of what i have done, in messaging, a c or c plus. how are you going to change it? during the speech. reporter: one of the challenges, a point of criticism was the immigration travel ban executive order. i m told by white house officials, it s likely the president will sign a revised immigration executive order that travel ban again tomorrow. as for this evening, we have a list of those special guests and
