So she flew here from ottawa to join the second round between mexico trade team and ambassador robert lighthizer. Undersecretary seata told us today everything democrats proposed before that made him lose sleep is now off the table. He tells me that talks are moving towards a resolution. Do you think democrats are going too far what theyre asking and the there were lots of suggestions made so im not going to comment on every suggestion because im not going to say these are suggestions of democrats. What does that mean. But what is now being considered towards the conversion or solution is not going too far. It is going in the right direction.

Connell there it is, melissa. Melissa he is the biggest. Retail delivery wars, target, walmart take on amazon with oneday shipping on the holidays . Is that enough to outpace the ecommerce giant . Jonathanjonathan hoenig, capitag hedge fund and fox news contributor. Jonathan, i love the competition. Happy thanksgiving and to all our viewers. 20 years ago, people were saying poopoo to amazon. They didnt believe it would succeed. Amazon captures 25 cents of every dollar, ex dollars, excars and restaurants that consumers spend. Theyre a giant in shipping as you alluded to. That is the next big hurdle. Walmart, target all these companies are really having to compete with amazon. Used to be twoday delivery. Now oneday delivery. More and more majority of consumers say oneday delivery is important to them t was minority five years ago. This is a big war. Consumers benefit. Melissa absolutely. You expect it. You shop at different places. You go to amazon instead if you need it sooner. Target is trying to battle back by delivering from the local store near you potentially. Is that a Winning Strategy . Will it end up costing companies so much money . This is the beauty of competition, melissa. Who could have foreseen how this would play out. Owe no, bricks and mortar is passe. You need to click it online, now bricks and mortar, whether target or walmart they have thousands of stores all around the country. Those are in effect serving as their delivery and Distribution Centers to try to counter amazons huge warehouse component. So theyre battling now. Once again the consumer is the winner. Of course not all retailers have been able to compete. Look at macys. Look at gap. They dont have the kind of reach. They have fallen to the wayside where others succeeded. Connell jonathan, talk about the battle we were ready for, might not happen. Ford backing away from teslas rematch challenge for a tugofwar competition between the cyber truck and the ford f150, the offer was done in tongueincheek fashion in a tweet by an executive. So a little bit of fun here but, if youre ford, you put your tweet out, to me you have to back it up do the tugofwar. What do you think . Musk will exploit this. He truly is one part Thomas Edison but one part p. T. Barnum to his great success. Connell right. He should be careful trying to exploit after the whole rock through the window routine at the truck unveiling that said youre probably right. Youre right, connell. That hasnt seemed to slow undo the buzz over the cyber truck. He tweeted out 250,000 preorders. Ford truck versus cyber truck. Almost like the pepsi challenge of our day. Coke or pepsi. The old or new. Aggressive new competitor. That is why this is shaping up to be a buzzword. Connell buzz worthy. Thank you, jonathan. Melissa setting up a major clash in washington, the House Judiciary Committee will hold the first public impeachment hearing next week. The white house is firing back. Lets go to blake burman. Blake. Reporter one week from today the hearing will take place in front of the House Judiciary Committee. The white house is weighing the options how his team, potentially the president s council may or may not show up to the hearing on the hill. White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham went on record about the possibility saying the white house is currently reviewing chairman nadlers letter, what comes obvious to every american that the letter is at the end of a sham of a partisan process. The president has done nothing wrong and the democrat know it. The nadler she is referring to the jerry nadler of the head of the House Judiciary Committee in the house. He has given 6 00 sunday to announce the president s intentions. There is plenty of time for the white house to map out the strategy and respond to House Democrats. The importance by the way of the Judiciary Committee hearings, this is the committee that could eventually produce articles of impeachment upon which the full house of representatives would then vote. Wednesday will be an interesting today when you look at the Political Landscape because those hearings before the Judiciary Committee of course will be going on. But also the president will be, half a world away as he is scheduled to be in london for the big gathering of nato leaders. Some within this building, melissa, will point out, goes to show the juxtaposition what is happening, what this white house is trying it portray that democrats are going after impeachment while the president is engaged with actual policy and trying to advance his agenda as well. That takes place on wednesday. For now though, back to you and very happy thanksgiving to you both. Connell there you go. Melissa blake, thank you so much for that. Connell that is nice of blake. A 2020 uphill climb well talk about in a moment. Why critics say Mike Bloombergs white house bid is distracting from the actual candidates in the race. Melissa oh. Connell actual candidates. Are they right . Melissa im giddy for thanksgiving here. Connell sounds like it. Melissa thanksgiving filled with snow and high winds, tens of thousands of people without power. That is not good. Two massive storms threatens millions of people taking to the roads. Where the storm is heading later this hour. Connell off the couch, into the theaters.

Tum tumtum tum tums connell bad news bloomberg by these numbers at least. A gallup poll is out, find 1 of democratic voters surveyed believe the newly minted democratic hopeful Mike Bloomberg has the best chance to beat donald trump in 2020. With that we bring in doug schoen, appearing as a Bloomberg Campaign advisor. This is your official title. Youre working officially for the campaign . Absolutely. Connell we welcome you. The whole logic for the Bloomberg Campaign, this guy can beat trump but gallup says not so fast. What do you say to that . I say a couple things. The campaign literally began on monday, it is now wednesday. Lets take time, connell. Number two the mayor has begun a very aggressive advertising campaign. So lets let that run its course. Number three, he is a centrist, a Business Leader a philanthropist, a successful mayor. I think when people see and what is unique about Mike Bloombergs record, they will see him more positive light and more likely to beat donald trump. Connell we talked about you before whether mayor bloomberg would get in the race and the logic if he did. And the thinking could be seemed to be if Vice President biden would falter and bloomberg could step in. But he hasnt faltered, much in the polls anyway. There is weakness in iowa and new hampshire, that is for sure. Warren has gone down. Biden come back up. Connell mayor pete come up. That says to me, there is lot of functionability in the electorate. That Mike Bloomberg is demonstrating by entering. Guts and enthusiasm to take a big risk. At a time when the electorate when the not solidly committed to any direction to break through with a campaign arguably that will be different, bold and unique. Connell he has done that before. He has, on smaller scale but a big city, running for mayor of new york and, you know, serving three terms. In 01 people didnt give him a ton, much of a chance. After 9 11 that changed. He ended up winning in those days as a republican. As you see it. This will be part of your job, what, how does he do it say buttigieg wins iowa and warren new hampshire. He probably wins next two states, we havent heard officially for mayor bloomberg yet. Sure. Connell what has to happen for a legit chance for super tuesday . What you outlined connell, i think probably the best possible result for mayor bloomberg. A divided democratic field. Only 4 of the delegates at stake 40 available on super tuesday. We could see a lot of change come the night of november third. Connell are you hoping or thinking there will be a brokered convention . Im thinking there is the possibility of the first time very long time that could be the result. Mayor bloomberg variety of different ways from the economy on down, can make a demonstrable difference. He is running at a separate track against donald trump to produce change in the general election regardless who is the nominee. I think the mayor has profoundly role to play from now going forward. I hope i have the chance to come back to continue to talk about it. Connell there is lot of interest in the Investment Community of mayor bloomberg. Well talk about the candidacy, see how it plays out. Good to see you, doug. Thank you, connell. Melissa the toys are back in town. Toys are toys r us is back in town. I hope my kids are not watching. Turn off the sound. We are live on the ground in a brand new location next. Nearly falling to the dark side. The star wars actor whose script ended up on ebay is owning up to the mistake. Connell oh, man. Melissa interesting. Was it you, connell. Connell it was. I put our rundown on ebay for the shows. Melissa nobody bought it . Connell no.

The star wars actor responsible for, youre looking at me like im craze i, the rise of skywalker script that ended up on ebay is coming clean. John boyega, plays finn on the franchise, he accidentally left a copy of the screenplay under his bed for weeks, forgot about it, until a cleaner came in and found the script. Fortunately for star wars fans, someone noticed the listing on ebay, was able to get the script back before it was sold. I dont know if i believe that story. I feel like maybe there is more to it. But whatever. He is a good actor. You can be a toys r us kid again. Toys r us opening the First New Store since declaring bankruptcy, closing all of its locations. Jackie deangelis is there in paramus, new jersey with the details. Is it crowded . Sounds crowded. Reporter very crowded. Good afternoon, melissa. Geoffrey the giraffe is making a come back in interesting way. These are different than the Warehouse Stores you and i remember. The company shut down all stores in june of 2018. Where im standing you have 6,000 square feet. Compared to an old store that was 40,000 square feet. This is an experience. They want to bring people into the brickandmortar space, let them touch toys, play with toys, go up in the treehouse, go in the geoffrey the giraffe mirror. I actually have believe you have me video of me climbing up in the treehouse earlier. The kids kicked me out the fair enough. I understand. This is a retail story. About 1500 products in the store. 15,000 products online. What is really interesting, go online, toys r us website will redirect you to target to fulfill your order. That is a new partnership they worked on, to get a broader reach. There were a lot of Toys R Us Stores before. You would see them everywhere. This is the first one to make a comeback. There will be another one this year in texas. Only 10 by the end of 2020. Theyre sort of like a draw to get the consumer in but more of a, you know, a special kind of thing if you will, not necessarily going massive at this point. It is ahead of last friday. Obviously very big, heavily trafficked shopping day. Ahead of the holiday season. It seems like it was perfect time for toys r us to make this kind of a come back, with the new plan and new synergies. Well see if it works out. I can tell you just ahead of black friday, there is good foot traffic at the mall. People are excited. Theyre confident about how they feel. Their spending power, et cetera. Well see if it ends up being a record spending day. Melissa jackie a bunch of chuckleheads behind you. Good luck with that. Connell i was waving back. Future tech on main street. How about this .
