it s a joe biden talking point. steve: actually, that s a rush limbaugh kind of talking point. here he is observing last night with sean hannity about how this president has a special bond with the voters in that particular swing state of ohio that is special. he appeals to people s better interest. this is what people don t understand about donald trump. they got caught up in the tweets and get caught up in all the manner that s supposedly doesn t have. he has a bond with his voters that nobody can break there is not a democratic on that stage either night that has any kind of a bond with anybody in the democrat party. trump is untouchable. nobody on the democrat side they are asking michelle obama to get in and save them. if they are doing that that s a tantamount admission that nobody they are running now has a slight chance or even a prayer. brian: i don t think you could even question that look, barack obama definitely had an attachment to an audience and a following. you know
ladder. steve: um-huh. dr. carson, over the last couple of days, the president has been critical of elijah cummings who has been a congressman from a district there in baltimore for a very long time. an area where you lived president has suggested that his administration has given 15 or $16 billion and a lot of financial mismanagement. nobody knows where the money went. what s he talking about? well, you know, that s a problem not just in baltimore lots of different places fiscal mismanagement. one of the things that we have done at hud is to have a new dashboard put together by our cio and some of the other dementsz that actually gives us a realtime readout of where the money is and how it s being spent. we have never had that before. so it was necessary to put all kinds of restrictions on people. and we will be able to give
steve: well, it was a busy night. ainsley: yes, it was. steve: u.s. bank arena cincinnati. stacked up as high as the fire marshall would allow. ainsley: he said must be democrats that are in office because there are a lot of people throughout in 100-degree heat that want to come in and they re not letting them. steve: rules are rules. brian: two nights of democrats dominating the rules. time for the president to go into a battleground state saying okay, i have been watching the debates. the president could take notes from night two of debate 2 and know how to hit exactly barack obama s policies. because it was the democrats hammering barack obama and it was the president just did the follow-up hitting last night. ainsley: he said i can t believe that they really bashed president obama last night and the night before. and then he also was talking about those four congresswomen. the freshman congresswomen and slamming them as well. brian: but not as much. the democrats spent more
we have created 6 million new jobs since election day. nobody would have thought that was possible. more than 7 million americans have been lifted off of food stamps. [cheers] and they are happy. they are happy. 123,000 more ohio workers are employed today than when i was elected. think of that number. [cheers] steve: well, the swing state of ohio is critical for the re-election of president trump. that s one of the reasons he makes so many trips there. there he was in cincinnati. and that s where we find a very familiar face this morning. ainsley: that s right. pete hegseth is live there good morning to you, pete. pete: good morning, guys. steve: that was quite a rally last night. pete: it sure was.
obviously president trump does. the democrats seem to me to have a cracks plan. no fossil fuels, no private health insurance. that s a con straxz of the economy. rather than the expansion that president trump has got. i think we are going to get more evidence of this expansion in this very strong economy. literally in about one and a half hours. 8:30 this morning we have the jobs reported. i m not going to predict the numbers. but it will show that the economy remains very, very strong. probably with a record number of people employed and we are still going to be very close to the historic low of 3.7% unemployment. it s going to be a strong report. steve: right. the there was a strong reaction on wall street when it was announced that the president was going to levee another tariff against china. but sell-off yesterday it looks like there is going to be another sell off today according to the futures. but ultimately, this isn t that much different than what we have already been doi
