Hes a war hero because he was captured. I like people who werent captured, okay . I hate to tell you. Do you agree with that . Hes a war hero because he was captured, okay . And i believe perhaps hes a war hero, but right now he said some very bad things about a a lot of people. Stuart that comment, as you might imagine, did not go down very well. He is answering his critics in an op to you would in the usa today. Heres one of the quotes. John mccain has could his own constituents who want a secure border crazies no one including the Republican National committee criticize the senator for those comments. Hes not back down on what he said about john mccain. With us this morning ashly webster. Ill start with you, katherine. Lets get right at it, shall we . Do you think trumps finished . I dont think hes going to admit hes finished or be it should as long as people are still listening to him which is really what this is about. He was doing very well in the polls, but i think as we get a little closer to 2016 people are going to take a closer look at the things he was saying. I think people are still going to want to keep listening to him because they think its interesting stuart support him . No. If youre going to run a gop nomination, you probably dont want to say those kinds of things about war veterans. Stuart katherine, do you think that would you be happy to see donald trump in the white house . Oh no. [laughter] stuart really . Itd be a disaster. It would be an absolute disaster. Stuart okay. Do you have any comment please . Its interesting hes getting what he wants. Its the world according to the donald. I think what i hear from most people is hes saying what everyone else doesnt have the guts to say. Stuart yes. Not many people want to say that john mccain was not a war hero. I mean, the man was tortured for five years, for heaven sakes. Thats dreadful. Stuart people dont want to hear that. A president needs to have a filter. [laughter] i say whatever i think of to, why would anybody say thats a good quality for the leader of the free world . It makes for great sound bites, Great Television stuart i think the guy peaked on friday, and hes on the way down. But well get back to that later. Stay with us katherine. Same old same old in greece. Its true, the the banks did reopen today, there is a weekly cash limit on withdrawals and long lines, and greece has received some bridge loan money but is using it to repay loans from the imf and the European Central bank. Ashley webster is back from three weeks in greece. And, ashley, what we want from you, i want you to tell us what its like in athens on the ground floor level. Remarkably calm. All the priest visits it was previous visits it was tear gas and molotov cocktails. Not this time. People resigned numb perhaps, to all of this. Stuart are they spending money . They are. The cafes were full, the restaurants were full. From the outside youd never know that anything was going on until you saw crowds gathering outside the Parliament Building every day. Its like its own mini economy. All the Street Vendors come out, theyre ready for the next protest, theyve got the hot dogs going and the corn on the cob, and its like, who is it today, the socialists, the communists . Theyre making money hand over fist. But there are a lot of tourists right now. Stuart so can tourists use their credit cards . Yes. Stuart thats not a problem . You could use your credit cards . Absolutely. No limit at all. Stuart could you go to the hotel atm and get as much cash only i had to prove that i was staying there and then you were escorted to the atm. Stuart you told me earlier greeks were lining up to buy highend items there was a time where it looked like the banks were going to get under. What money they could get, they were trying to buy highend yams, chanel handbags, electronics, trying to get something of value for their money. Stuart thats the lines at banks today. Remarkably orderly, and they have these Bank Managers who stand outside, and they kept people calm. They were very respect. They dealt with people who were getting angry, and it was handled very well. I was impressed. Stuart fascinating. When are you going back . Well, the way the greeks spend money, maybe next week. [laughter] stuart you stay here. All right. Stuart another big headline today and its about technology. Lauren simonetti whats your name . [laughter] Lauren Simonetti there you go. Stuart has the story in case you missed it. Good monday morning. If youre look agent the tech sectors record run and scratching your head take a look at this company jet. Com k. It launches tomorrow, it has no revenue and likely wont for years to come, yet its potential valuation at launch . 3 billion, making it one of the most valued startups ever. Its model is amazon, but it charges members 50 a year and promises them cheaper prices. That means sometimes taking losses to fulfill that process. If an item a customer wants is not on jet. Coms inventory or a partners inventory, it will then go to another retailers web site and buy and send that item and send it directly to the customer at no additional cost. Jet says this Business Model will work when it sells 20 billion worth of products a year, and they say theyll do that by 2020. But thats important because its about a quarter of what amazon sells annually and amazons been in business for 20 years. Stuart they have indeed. But thats a real wildcard, isnt snit to challenge amazon . Yeah. Stuart theyre worth three billion already potentially. Its because you have investors with all of this money sitting there saying what can we do with our cash . Everybodys doing everything on their phones, so they see promise in this model. And for customers i mean, id spend 50 a year to get cheaper prices than amazon. Stuart if you could, thats a good pull in, isnt it . Okay. Lauren simonetti yes. [laughter] stuart okay. Dont forget, you better tune in every morning at 5 00 eastern. Lauren simonetti sandra smith and nicole petallides, they bring you the news of the day fresh you should bring me coffee at this time stuart. Stuart i could. But you weenlt. Stuart im in the office at four. If you ask, you shall receive. Check the dow futures, where are we going to open this morning in about 24 and a half minutes . Up about 34 points, holding above the 18,000 level. But, look, heres what were really looking at when the market opens those four big tech names. All of them closed out last week with at record highs. Were obviously going to be asking is this bubble territory. In my opinion no, its not. This is not dot. Com room to run. Stuart yes. And if you look at premarket, some of those stocks especially amazon, its going to be up again today at the opening bell. The price of oil at 50 a barrel as of this morning. Price of gas leap, same old story, Holding Steady were at 2. 75 your national average. Heres a really big story about gas. California. The most expensive gasoline in america. The National Sorry the state average is 3. 87 a gallon, more than a dollar above everywhere else. Weve got a lot more on that one coming up. Its the greenest of course it is. Stuart its the greenies fault. Youll agree with that, katherine . Sure. [laughter] stuart president obama has not ordered the u. S. Flag to half staff after the five servicemen were killed in chattanoogas terror attack. Tennessee republican congressman scott deyo lay joins us. It was lowered for fort hood but not chattanooga. Whats your reaction to that sir . It needs to happen and it needs to happen soon. Stuart do you think it will . I dont know why it wouldnt. Weve lost five servicemen, and the flag goes to halfmast for all types of other incidents. We have five servicemen who lost their lives, i cant imagine why it hasnt been low arerred. Stuart the president wont use the word domestic terrorism and i dont think hes going to lower that flag. He has a hard time with that concept for some reason. We saw an example of it in chattanooga this past thursday. Stuart but theres one lasting thing which may a good thing which may come out of this. I believe youre sponsoring a bill to allow the rearming with guns, real guns, our soldiers in uniform on their bases in america. You started that, i believe. Right. I think a lot of people are shocked to learn they couldnt, but a department of defense directive in 92 disallowed the use of our military men and women arming themselves at recruiting stations and other installations. And so what were going to do the this legislation today will help reverse that decision and hopefully codify it so its there to stay. And its gotten a lot of momentum. Youre covering it on the show friday was a great help and weve had calls from all around the country and other members to move on this and let these people protect themselves and have a fighting chance. Stuart i have to ask you, congressman if youve got much democrat support for this. Actually, we have. Weve had people reach out and say this is just something that just makes sense. And we have support coming from across the aisle too, so i hope this moves quickly. Host congressman, we appreciate you being with us again this morning. Well be following this later on today. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Stuart Hillary Clinton taking direct aim at high income earners with a platform, shes going to lay it out, higher taxes. She wants to take more from high income earners capital goings. Heres how it works. If you make a good living, you make a profit on a house, stock, gold or even bonds, you will pay a higher Capital Gains rate. She would take more of your profit. Cat lin, youre katherine, youre still with us, holding on for dear life. [laughter] thank you very much. Hillary clinton is still very likely to get the democrat nomination. In fact, as she turns left shes going to get even more, a better chance of getting the nomination. Absolutely. I would think that a lot of people would say maybe on the left, of course, that this doesnt really go far enough. Theyve been talking about these kinds of plans for a really long time, so theyll say, hey, look you have someone like Bernie Sanders, hes really going to go for it, hes a rebel against the establishment. And shes the definition of the establishment. Not just because shes a clinton, but because her policies are very much the same bad, of course, you know, diminishing incentives for people who work hard is never a good thing. Stuart have you any doubt she will be the democrat nominee . I dont i think she has to be. The clinton machine is too powerful. Stuart last question. Regardless of who her opponent is, do you think she wins . I think its going to be really hard to beat her, especially because i dont think theres a clear gop alternative. Stuart thats true at this point. Katherine, thank you very much, indeed. The unapologetic donald trump, he says veteran and p. O. W. Senator john mccain is not a hero. Okay, he qualified that within seconds. What do you think Lieutenant Colonel ralph peters has to say about that . Hes next. People with type 2 diabetes come from all walks of life.

Stuart an explosion in turkey near the Syrian Border has left at least 28 people dead about 100 others injured. No immediate claim of responsibility. A turkish official however, said authorities have evidence that the attack was a suicide bombing and suspect isis was behind it. Lieutenant colonel ralph peters is here. This is an explosion, maybe a suicide bombing, maybe isis. Very tricky part of the world. What do you make of this, sir . Business as usual. Islamic state will continue to do such attacks everywhere and turkey, turkeys in a difficult position. The president of turkey erdogan, actually he doesnt like Islamic State, but he has preferred them to the assad regime, so he kind of has looked away hes impeded our efforts to fight Islamic State from turkish territory. And now, you know, hes reaping the whirl wind. So turkey is going to see more of this, not less. Islamic states growing, not shrinking. Stuart a destabilization of turkey would be an absolute disaster. But i do want to move on to donald trump. Youre a military man, and here we have trump making really, i think dreadful comments about john mccain who is, indeed, a war hero who was tortured in a seat that please prison. Do you think that do you want to see donald trump as the president of the United States . Stuart donald trump is the p aperture in the derriere. Hes a clown. He hurts our country, he hurts our image in the world. Hes certainly going to hurt the chances of defeating Hillary Clinton. But beyond all that, calling out john mccain and saying hes not a hero, exactly how much military service has donald trump done . Stuart yeah. Hes got an excuse. How about his kids . Go to ranger school. The armys opening it up for gals now. These people have no record of service to our country, no interest in service to our country. Its all about selfservice. I mean Donald Trumps idea of a battle is a lawsuit. Hes made a career by hiring third rate architects and first rate lawyers. And not only dont i want him to be president , i personally for many years have avoided Trump Properties just because theyre so damn tacky. Stuart do you have anyone in the race that you favor at this point on the republican side . Well, the trouble is there are several people that a i think are good, and i really its like john kasich, i would like him to get into this. Scott walker has many, many good qualities. Im not bothered that he didnt finish college because look at what College Graduates have done to this country. I am bothered that he waffled about evolution. When a republicans asked about evolution, you know, how do you square it with your religious beliefs, the answer is simple, god made darwin too. Move on, get over it. Dont get bogged down by a sniper, thats a military rule. Marco rubios got tremendous appeal. I think hed be a great vp. Hes not quite ready for the main job yet. So there are a lot of people Mike Huckabee is affable very very likable guy. He and i would disagree on domestic politics. So the bottom line on the question youre asking me is i want i dont expect perfection. Its okay for a candidate to take positions with which i personally disagree as long as we agree on the majority of things. And i think people when they get locked up in one single litmus test issue do themselves and the country a disservice. Lets look at the total person. Okay, we dont agree on the environment. All right, i can move, i can move past that if were strong on the other issues. So, again, lets keep an open mind, see what the American People want. But donald trump, please. Do us a favor, shut up. Stuart we did i had to edit that. Stuart we heard that and i thought there was an extra word you were going to insert there, but you didnt. No. Im much too military disciplined. [laughter] stuart yes, you do, thats true. Thanks for joining us. Thank you stuart. Stuart hobbit this . How about this .
