jason, let s just for the moment leave aside the illegality of the trump tariffs that are not based on any kind of national security calculus but let s talk to the audience about why tariffs are not the tool, not the magic wand that donald trump thinks they are. i mean, i think we kind of have a full display of that going on right now, but why did president obama never say, you know what, i m going to help the domestic manufacturer of washington machines by slapping a tariff on chinese washing machines. tariffs are attacks on american consumers. they are pretty regressive tax that costs the most and takes the most out of a paycheck of low and moderate income households and then a number of the things we put tariffs on are used in american production. in fact, there are american steel factories that are being hurt because they re using some chinese steel and remaking it into products in america.

let s give credit where it s due. i just thought it was very, very telling that he explicitly said that he wasn t going to do what he called a cognitive test, but the president wanted him to do the test and go out and report on it. that is so, so telling. thanks, everyone. i appreciate it. when we come back, a top democrat accuses the white house of slapping a gag order on steve bannon. is bannon trying to get back into the president s good graces? if you ve been diagnosed with cancer,
the fact that he came out and answered questions for an hour today, that surprised me, and i think that surprised you, daytha. that s a good thing. do i believe every single number there? not exactly. i was just chuckling at how energetic he was, not exactly what he was saying about the president he seemed like a trump fan boy. what d he say 239 pounds i know i m being a girther, but, come on. we rightly complain all the time about this administration s lack of responsiveness to us. that guy came out here for an hour today, he answered a lot of questions, let s give credit where it s due. and i just thought it was very, very telling that he explicitly said that he wasn t going to do what he called a g cognitive test, but the president wanted him to do the test and then go out and report on it. that is so, so telling. yeah. all right. thanks, everyone. i appreciate it. when we come back, a top democrat accuses the white house of slapping a gag order on steve bannon. is b
