what are we? i mean, when somebody else can choose our elected officials for us, that is a very fine line. i don t think we should go down that road. all right, we ll leave it right there. amy, good to see you. if you re one of those people who likes to explore like a local does, when visiting a new place, here are a few ways to tour off the beaten path. i like feeling like a local when i travel. . so what better way than to book a private local tour in the city you re traveling to. tours by locals offer guides in 158 countries. i booked brian. he s a volunteer firefighters and a former wall street trader and he s a native new yorker just like me. this is federal hall where george washington was inaugurated as the first president to the united states. i walked by this building all the time but i didn t know any of that. this is the merchant marine memorial, a lot of people come
memos about the president asking him to quit the flynn investigation just doesn t signal uncertainty about the economic agenda, but the future of the presidency. here is how one wall street trader put it. i think we are at a point where his presidency is starting to crackle and become vulnerable. wall street is feeling that for the first time. changing mood could mean more losses. here it is important to note. corporate earnings are strong. all three indices are up for the year. it bears watching the mood about the president s agenda now this is all in the hands of the special counselor. the context is important. record highs. economy is still healthy. the u.s. state department voicing concern over what police describe as a brutal attack on protesters outside the turkish ambassador residence in washington, d.c. how about this video?
the washington antics and the pressure on the president and the way he behaves in office. instead, they were banking on the promise of tax cuts and deregulation. for investors, the latest issue doesn t signal uncertainty, but the future of the presidency. here is how one wall street trader put it. i kind of think we re at a point where it seems like his presidency is starting to crackle and become vulnerable. wall street is feeling that for the first time. a changing mood could mean more losses. corporate earnings are strong. stocks hit record highs two days ago. all three major indices are up for the year. hearing that trader say there s a change. the markets had been inpenetrable. the markets are wildly

this time but today, from reading the reports and talking to friends who were there, it really seems to me that this is different, that this was so heartfelt and that the charges that are being thrown back and forth are so difficult that i you know, it s going to take longer than harvard gave it to kind of settle down after this election. it s not like it was in 2012 where people could sit around a table and just sort of discuss their strategy. that wasn t this session. i bet it was interesting being there, though. thank you very much. i appreciate all of you when we come back, listening to donald trump america. the wall street trader who quit his job and traveled $100,000 to trump country. meet him, next.
