At the event. Those not at the event will not receive ove pay on friday. Workers who showed up had to be there at 7 00 a. M. To scan their i. D. Cards and had to be prepared to stand for hours. The Time Commitment included the lunch hour but no lunch was provided. The event was at 2 00 p. M. No one on the trump team wrote this memo, were told. But were not sure who did, because shell insists it didnt come from them either. Cnns Kristen Holmes is in berkeley heights, new jersey, near the president s bedminster estate. Kristen, what is shell saying about all this . Reporter ana, thats right, theyre denying they wrote the memo. I want to note here theyre taking particular issue with that line you read about protesting, saying any language about worker conduct did not come from the company. But when it came to that overtime section, it was a bit of a different story. Here is what the spokesperson told us earlier today. He said, it was understood some would choose not to attend the president ial visit and were given the option to take paid time off instead, as with any workweek, if someone chooses to take pto they are not eligible to receive maximum overtime. Essentially it is only mandatory if you do want to get paid. Now, we have reached out to the white house about this and we have yet to hear back. Okay, Kristen Holmes, thank you for that update. Now to portland, oregon and the tense scene created by dueling protests from far right extremist groups and counterprotesters including some on the far left who identify as antifa or antifascist. On twitter this morning the president wrote, major consideration is being given to naming antifa an organization of terror. But its important to remember the u. S. Doesnt have a domestic Terrorism Law and no Government Agency designates domestic groups as being terrorist organizations. Joining us now, cnn political commentator and senior columnist at the daily beast, matt lewis. Matt, the president called out the far left but far right groups like the proud boys are also accused of carrying out violence. Why is the president staying silent about that end of the spectrum . Its selective, of course. Donald trump did get dinged after charlottesville when he talked about both sides. And remember, charlottesville was two years ago this week. Right. I think that this is partisanship, you know. Their bad guys are bad, our bad guys, we wont mention. So i hate to be that simplistic but i think thats what it is. The president held a rally in the primary state of New Hampshire this week where he basically ruled out the idea of any competition in 2020. Watch this. You have no choice but to vote for me because your 401 k s, down the tubes. Everythings going to be down the tubes. So whether you love me or hate me, youve got to vote for me. Whats your take away from the president s tone there . Im not understanding that logic, because he came in with a good economy and claims that he would bring back the manufacturing sector. We now know because of his erratic trade positions that even though hes walked back from the china trade tariffs that china insisted theyre going to continue on their end so thats been passed off to consumers as a tax on consumers. The tax cut business investment, it went down, businesses did not put that back into communities. Now this morning, manufacturing has slowed down. So all of his economic promises hes made, hes failing at. And frankly, two years in, the economy belongs to him. And people arent feeling that change. So at least, i lost count, 18 or 19 alternatives to donald trump. Ultimately it will end up being a binary choice. But im not sure what hes trying to protect other than a false sense of bravado. I will say, nayyera, the economy is strong in many ways. Unemployment is at near record lows. We know wages have been going up. There are other signs of strength in the economy. So i mean, theres definitely been some volatility this week on wall street, but to say the economy is just tanked, i feel like is not true. I think this is part of the disconnect, when we talk about financial indicators and then how people are actually feeling, right . If you look under the hood of the indicators, we know wages are increasing only at the top and the lowest portion. The big chunk of the middle, its not. Thats been pretty consistent, even though and the majority of americans, 60 persons, actually saw their tax bill increase. People are working too jobs. Employment is technically down but its not because people are employed in the jobs theyve been trained for, almost that theyre underemployed. The story for an average person who is working, they scratch their heads, im being told that gdp is increasing but im not feeling the benefit directly. Thats where this talk of a trump recession is really starting to build up, particularly now that wall street and World Markets are rooe reacting. And matt, a republican source close to the president told the Washington Post this, about how he feels about the headlines, quote, hes rattled, he thinks that all the people that do this Economic Forecasting are a bunch of establishment weanies, elites who dont know anything about the real economy and their against trump. What do you make of that . I dont know if he thinks this is some deep state conspiracy to talk down the economy or Something Like that. But i do think he should be rattled, in the sense that donald trump you know, there were all these expectations, if he goes on twitter, hes going to rattle the market. It didnt happen. If he does these tariffs, free traders said, its going to hurt the economy. It hasnt manifested so far. Will it catch up to him . If that happens and theres a lot of time still between now and november of 2020, its hard to imagine donald trump we talk about reelection. Its a completely different scenario if theres a recession, i think thats an obvious point. He should be worried about it. Staying with 2020 for a minute, the New York Times is reporting that former tpresiden obama told Vice President joe biden, you dont have to do this, joe, you really dont. This was before he threw his name into the hat. The times said the former president worried about bidens team of advisers being too old. We know biden is 76. Nayyera, should that be a red flag for voters, what were hearing about the former president s thinking . I dont think its a matter of age, we see dynamic candidates, Bernie Sanders is not a spring chicken, neither is elizabeth warren. Its the age of ideas that people feel a little stale and thats critical for biden to overcome, whether he can connect with a younger set of voters. Millenial voters are going to equal if not surpass boomers in the voting bloc for 2020. Matt, i want to turn to the battle between the president and democratic congresswoman rash d rasheerashida tla tlaib. He convinced the Prime Minister of israel to ban her. She wanted to go to visit her grandmother. Israel finally allowed her to go but she now refuses to go because of conditions imposed on her. I should be on a plane to see her. More than anything, im a granddaughter. Meantime, here is what the president wrote on twitter. Quote, the only real winner here rasheeida tlaibs grandmother, e doesnt have to see her now. I think that tlaib and omar has tweeted and said antisemitic tropes. I dont think theyre great actors here. But donald trump makes them seem sympathetic. This is a pr coup for tlaib. She looks like the victim here, israel and trump look bad here, its bad optics, its bad politics. I think what trump is trying to do is to elevate the squad to make them the identity, the brand of the democratic party. He thinks that helps him in 2020. Maybe its a short term strategic move that might help donald trump. I worry about the long term consequences of elevating these pretty radical left wing politicians who are actually in a battle against nancy pelosi for the heart and soul of the democratic party. We should be rooting for nancy pelosi, i would say, not tlaib. Matt, nayyera, thank you, good to see you both. Thank you.
