expressing concerns about the timetable. both saying it s increasingly unlikely. that the august time frame, even this year on the tax cuts. any message for that? my comment is, when you come out with a very aggressive plan that you want to get done, of course you start with the view it s unlikely. this president is not sitting around and having an agenda that is conservative and likely. this is a president that wants to get things done and neil: the trouble, you want a gigantic figure in the wall street community. still expressing great i don t know. maybe not. we ll see. we re going to deliver on this. again, it s aggressive but we re going to get it done. neil: do you agree on the broad parameters? i talked to the ways and means secretary. he says you have broad agreement
explain why their respective candidates won. are they do something cleanup now, the hillary clinton campaign o this specific issue? her use of 9/11 to justify the support she s apparently given, if you listen to bernie sanders, to wall street? reporter: they are, wolf. her communications director, jen pa palmieri, working the room behind me. this is the shiese s tackling. the campaign was aware this was the weak spot for her. palmieri saying that hillary clinton was trying to explain why she s had some favor from wall street. and basically just that she was proud to stand with the wall street community following 9/11. of course, that s not exactly how it came out of hillary clinton s mouth when she was explaining this. and i think there s an awareness by the campaign that there was some awkwardness on that. certainly as we see some of the criticism following what she said. of course, one of the other issues i think that is getting a lot of buzz has to do with her
commerce is big. there might be skepticism about being in certain high buildings but that s remarkable in and of itself. that is the american spirit. that is what sets this country apart and that hasn t changed. on that day billions in property was destroyed. thousands of lives were lost. but the american spirit wasn t extinguish evidence. a few days after we exhausted recovery efforts to find people alive, we we rang the opening bill on 9/17 it said to the terrorists, you lost. you can t destroy the american way of life. this is and will always be what makes us different. those incredible first responders who got 25,000 people alive out of those buildings, and the wall street community, which took off their own respective competitive jerseys, put on the american flag. i remember that very well.
sometimes we get bogged down talking about wall street. i m talking about the larger business community. they have been big winners under this administration. the business community should be touting what this administration has done. why aren t they? i think there is an adversarial relationship whether it s fair or not or should be the case. that s the case. that should not prevent this president why are they peeing on his pa aid? i can t answer for the business community. if i were president tomorrow morning i would do what you did at the start of the show. at a minimum you shame some of the business community to support him more and remind the broader elect cat of things we have done a as a country and the things republican said would happen if obama s economic plan, health plans passed. how terrible it would be for the country. the president has stats and numbers to show that s not only wrong but completely wrong. to call on republicans to work with him in ways they hav
i agree with just about everything you said. one thing to remember as the conversation is unfolding is there s been an a adversarial relationship between the broader business community. certainly specifically the wall street community or the banking community with this white house. at least the perception is there. maybe the white house in some ways is reluctant to brag. they might feel they are touting and trumpeting the horn of big business. explain that. explain why selling a better economy makes the fat cats happier than they should be. no, no. they are already rich. they know they re rich. that s not what i i m saying the opposite. there is reluctance on the part of the white house. when you look at the numbers that have come out, particularly in the last six months, the real are winners in the economy have been those earning over a quarter million a year. they are more likely to be invested in the markets. why not everybody with a 401(k)? you re in finance.
