[chanting four more years] steve: hi, everybody, welcome to fox and friends for this tuesday, september 15th, it is exactly seven weeks from today, 49 days until the big election and we have lots to talk about that with a very special guest today, ainsley. ainsley: that's exactly right. the president is going to join us at 8:00 this morning. we have so much news to cover this morning. so much happened over the weekend and yesterday and we want to fill you in on that and what the breaking news is this morning on all those stories. brian is on assignment down in washington. hey, brian. brian: yeah, ainsley and steve. first off, i mean, you have the natural disasters. you have the law and order issue happening every major city in the tragedy over the weekend and two campaigns. joe biden is actually leaving and going to florida. so have you two campaigns to actually cover on the move no longer virtual, i guess in delaware. >> steve: there must be something going on with the polls if he left the basement that's what president trump supporters would say. we'll ask him in two hours. in the meantime we start this hour with a fox news extreme weather alert. hurricane sally is slowly inching toward the gulf coast right now, traveling three miles an hour. ainsley: slowly is what worries janice dean. states of emergency declared in florida, mississippi, alabama, and louisiana. the storm is expected to bring historic and life threatening flooding. brian: are they ready. janice dean is tracking sally's path right now. janice: a lot of people are focused whether this is a category 2 or category 1. it doesn't matter it. could be a tropical storm. the main risks are going to be the slow movement of the storm system and the potential for 2 feet to 30 inches of rainfall along the gunk and that could be potentially catastrophic and deadly. this is a storm system continuously push storm surge and innun dated with rainfall inland across these vulnerable areas and wind gusts across the coast tropical storm force force. event well into tomorrow morning and thursday. that's my concern here. it doesn't take a hurricane to cause incredible amounts of flooding damage and know what to do if the water is on the rise in your areas and you live along these vulnerable coast lines. 85 mile-per-hour sustained winds. the last a few frames of the satellite showing a burst of convection so there is a potential for strengthening but because this is going to sit along the gulf coast and not move, very fast, that is the biggest danger. we saw what happened with hurricane harvey. in texas tropical storm allison it wasn't even a hurricane. 36, 40 inches of rainfall. these are the worse case scenarios when it comes to these systems. there is the track. there is workers' compensation, thursday not moving very fast. so this is goings to be the biggest colonel is the flooding, the storm surge, the rain on top of flooded ground, it really is the potential for a disaster in this area unfortunately guys. we will bring you the latest. i'm world about this one, i really am. steve: earlier this morning i saw a memorial to katrina right there in louisiana and it was surrounded by floodwaters already. it's really something and you are going to be keeping an eye on it. thank you, ma'am. meanwhile another first alert. new surveillance video shows the dramatic moments after two l.a. county sheriff deputies were ambushed. we have a warning though, the video, the graphic, the video is very graphic. ainsley: one of the deputies she is 31 years old. she is a mom. she placed a tourniquet on her partner while she was frantically call for help. hard to make that call because she was shot in the face. her words were barely audible after she was shot right there in the jaw. listen to this audio when she is trying to call for help. brian: gunman still on the run this morning. you would think this is afghanistan or iraq. what is going on? the reward for information leading to his arrest is now up to $200,000. but it really shouldn't come to that you know, i give the lapgd credit. because, as horribles that this is to hear, as terrible as it is to see, it is important for everybody around the country that says well, that's not my problem, to understand this is your problem. because if it's not kenosha, if it's not minneapolis, if it's not new york city, it is -- if it's not roch, new york. it is now los angeles. and it's time for people to understand the reality that the policemen and women are forced to deal with on a daily basis. here is alex of los angeles county sheriff, and he is talking about the reward. he is also talking about the activism in sports and says hey, it's time for you, men and women, who play games for a living, to go to bat for us. listen. >> this schal to lebron james. i want you to match that and that double that reward. i know you care about law enforcement. you expressed a very, very interesting statement about your perspective on race relations and on officer-involved shootings and the impact it has on the african-american community. i appreciate that. likewise, we need to appreciate the respect for life goes across professions, across races, creeds, i would like it see lebron james step up to the plate. brian: you know, that would be great. he has done a lot of great things. he is out in front on so many issues. he has made a huge difference. it would be great to see a blending of the causes. i would like to correct myself it's not lapgd. it's l.a. county sheriffs. steve: the sheriff says i will be very curious to see what his response is, if any. also, we are learning apparently the sheriff warned deputies of more possible attacks going forward and our own william la jeunesse, our reporter out in los angeles, says some l.a. police department members believe the ambush is in retaliation for recent police shootings of black suspects in los angeles. nonetheless, it comes down to something i have basic. where is a society if it does not have order? and in particular, law and order. the sheriff was with sean hannity last night. and he made that very clear. that we have got to be a nation of law and order. and without that, essentially, it's anarchy but, nonetheless, have you also got to have politicians on the same page. they got to support their men and women in uniform. here is the sheriff once again. >> anyone who is an influencer in society has an obligation to maintain law and order and to support law and order. i have heard some things from elected leaders, particularly at the local level that's just astonishing and they are just fanning the flames. pouring gas on the fire. and they are not bringing people together. they are further dividing people. it's reprehensible. i won't say this is the outcome of that; however, they are contributing to the narrative that there are always going to be that one person in the crowd that's going to take them at face value and they are going -- they will decide to take independent action on that. so, people need need to be responsible because words have consequences and this is a prime example of that. steve: do you know what? words do have consequences. it has been noted that the mayor of compton where the shooting happened, aishah brown has changed her tone because a couple weeks ago she said the sheriff's department deputies terrorize the community. the deputies terrorize the community. yesterday she said after the twolg deputies were shot. she said she was devastated to learn of the tragedy. so, you know, a little progress right there. ainsley: you know, lebron james says that black individuals have been terrified of police. so maybe that's what she meant by that these two officers were sitting in their car. they were there not terrorizing. they were there to protect. all the little children that are born in compton and playing in the streets and trying to go to school that's the jock of these police officers. many police officers say they feel forgotten. after 9/11 they felt so loved and they don't feel that love anymore. many of them don't want to put on their union formation because they're afraid that's going to happen to them and their life is going to forever be altered. we watched that video of the two officers being rushed to the emergency room and people are blocking the er and saying i hope they die. and these politicians, i understand what these officers and what the los angeles county sheriff is saying that politicians have an obligation to support law and order so that we don't have that' anarchy. listen to what other politicians have saying about. this the folks in law enforcement that share the goals of reimagining police. >> reimagining policing in the 21st century. >> rethinking and reimagining policing. >> community efforts to reimagine policing torgets reimagine policing. >> we have to reimagine what policing looks like. >> reimagining policing, reimagining our public safety. >> reimagine a citizen led approach. >> can you begin to reimagine law enforcement. >> reimagine public safety in this country. >> what can we do to reimagine public safety. >> reimagining public safety. >> to reimagine public safety. >> we must reimagine what public safety looks like. >> many of them have said reimagining like dismantling police departments. brian: of course. ainsley: we all go to work every day we are trying to put a roof over our children's heads and put clothes on their back and hopefully send them to college. that's what these officers are doing. of the woman who was shot in the face, she was a librarian a year ago. she went to the police academy and decided she wanted to be a police officer and support all the families and protect all the families that live in her district. and this is how she thanks. this is how she is repaid. >> monmouth did a poll how big is law and order. 65% say law and order and maintaining it is a major problem. no kidding. meanwhile, 11 minutes after the hour. let's go over to griff over in d.c. with me. hey, griff, have you been following both campaigns. >> yeah. good morning, brian, ainsley and steve. brian, good point about both campaigns now are moving around the country. biden is heading to florida today where he will try and regain lost ground with hispanic voters in the sunshine state. remember that poll, president trump closing in on hispanic voters there and the president continued by the way yesterday, pitcherring in that demographic. that key demographic in arizona. watch. it will. >> i have achieved more for hispanic americans in 47 months than joe biden has achieved in 47 years. it telling. >> this is biden at home in delaware didn't want to talk about law and order. instead blasting the president on climate change. >> give a climate arsonist four more years in the white house, why would anyone be surprised if we have more america ablaze? wildfires don't skip towns that voted a certain way. >> president trump wrapped his west coast swing in california where he awarded the distinct distinguished flying cross to seven members of the national guard who helped rescue 200 people from the ravaging wildfires. gavin newsom setting aside his differences in politics for a moment to thank the president for his support. >> i want to thank you and acknowledge the work that you've done to be immediate in terms of your response. this may be a record that the state has received in the will support as well as the major disaster declaration. >> the president attended wildfire briefing where the secretary of natural resources challenged the president on climate change. watch. >> it will start getting cooler. you just watch. >> i wish science agreed with you. >> i don't think science knows, actually. >> so the president heads to philly tonight for a town hall event. but first he will join you guys at 8:00 a.m. we will see what he has to say about all of these things from law and order to the california west coast swing. he has just returned to by the way today, this morning, he will be presiding over a major east diplomatic event. brian, ainsley, steve? >> he is a busy guy. you know how it goes. we will start interviewing him, griff at 8:00 this morning we have an hour until the next show takes over. i have a feeling he will talk to us for about that amount of time. thank you, sir, we will see you later. meantime 6:14 in new york city. jillian joins us and she has as if we don't have enough news there is even more, isn't there. >> yes, there is more. president trump warning after a reported are not sent a ambassador. politico reports llana marks for the killing of kassam absolutely in january. -soleimani in. any attack will be met on iran that will be 1,000 times greatner magnitude. the mayor of roch, new york, fires a police chief two weeks ahead of his planned retirement. mayor warren reviewed ron singletary's handling of daniel prud's death in police custody. this initial look has shown that we have a pervasive problem in the rochester police department. one that views everything through the eyes of the badge and not the citizens we serve. >> mayor warren is asking the doj to ask how prud's case was handled. >> it's being called a major step in the coronavirus. discovered part of an antibody that neutralizes the virus that causes covid-19. researchers at the university of pittsburgh say they have created a drug using the small molecular. the university has been highly effective in tests on mice and hamsters and can potentially treat and prevent the virus in humans. keep you updated. the pittsburgh steelers showing their strength on monday night football. the team standing for the national anthem while holding a banner against racism. they also got a big boost from big ben's return. >> roethlisberger on third and 4. fires to the end zone it's caught my shuster. big night for choo choo. jillian: ben roethlisberger throwing three touchdowns. steelers beat the giants 26-16. titans beat the bronks wit bron. missed four other kicks in the game. final score was 16-14. every team looks like preseason form right now. brian: absolutely. the crowd didn't roar. jillian: good to see them all back. thanks so much, jillian. act blue has been a power house for fundraising for progressives. now a conservative group is questioning the integrity of many 2019 donations. we have the story next. >> ♪ ♪ introducing the all-new 2021 gla suv. starting at just $36,230. it's the biggest thing that ever happened to small. lease the gla 250 suv for just $399 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. on king's hawaiian bread! yum! king's hawaiian. with acetaminophenction yum! fights pain in two ways. advil targets pain at the source... ...while acetaminophen blocks pain signals. the future of pain relief is here. new advil dual action. that life of the party look walk it off look one more mile look reply all look own your look... ...with fewer lines. there's only one botox® cosmetic. it's the only one... ...fda approved... ...to temporarily make frown lines... ...crow's feet... ...and forehead lines... ...look better. the effects of botox® cosmetic, may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness may be a sign of a life-threatening condition. do not receive botox® cosmetic if you have a skin infection. side effects may include allergic reactions, injection site pain, headache, eyebrow, eyelid drooping, and eyelid swelling. tell your doctor about your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, and medications including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. so, give that just saw a puppy look. and whatever that look is. look like you... with fewer lines. see results at botoxcosmetic.com it's made for this guy a veteran who honorably served and it's made for her she's serving now we made it for all branches and all ranks whether they served one tour or made a career of it. we also made usaa for military spouses and their kids usaa is easy to work with and can save you money on auto, home and renters insurance. become a member today. get an insurance quote at usaa.com/quote usaa. what you're made of we're made for issue. yet they are the would report every conviction to federal candidates that come through our platform and you can look those up on the fec. does that sound about right to you?

we are category 1, 58 mile-per-hour sustained winds. the fact that this storm is stalled and moving west northwest at 2 miles per hour. that's the problem is we are going to be tracking this well into thursday and friday in some of the same areas that could receive upwards of 2 feed of rain. and the storm surge anywhere from 7 to 9 feet, depending on where you live and where the center comes on shore. there is the tropical models. the thick red line is the national hurricane center and then the other guidance west and east of that but we think a landfall potentially overnight tonight anywhere between gulfport and mobile. so on the border between mississippi and alabama. some of these areas were completely destroyed by hurricane katrina. 15 years ago. and the legacy of the event is going to be the water. the storm surge, the heavy rainfall on top of saturated ground. so flood advisories posted along the coast but well inland where they could receive upwards of a foot of rainfall. so a lot of these heavily populated neighborhoods. fresh water flooding could be a big danger in the next several days. and, again, not to focus on the category. the results are going to be the same. it's going to be incredible amounts of water inundating these areas inland. back to you steve, anxiously and brian. steve: j.d., you have always said more people die from the storm surge than the winds. janice: yeah, unfortunately. it's going to be a water event. steve: it is indeed. j.d., thank you. it's being called the largest election program in presidential campaign history. the biden team have signed up hundreds of attorneys including former a.g. eric holder to get ready for a legal battle in case there is a contested election seven weeks from today. ainsley: here to weigh in is fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. good morning, judge. >> good morning, ainsley. good morning, guys. ainsley: how normal is this i know the president has his coalition lawyer lawyers for. >> it is normal for them toe goat their legal forces in order. we have the example, of course of bush against gore in which the legal forces were amassed after election day when it became apparent that the florida count and real count would be disputed. but that will seem like child's play compared to what may be coming in november this year because with the voting by mail, there is going to be a dispute over whether or not the signature on the document containing the ballot. you don't actually sign the ballot. you sign the envelope that you put the ballot. in whether that signature matches the voter signature registered with the voting officials. that's what the dispute will be this year. and it likely will not be in one state. it will be in many states. so, the biden team is wise to be prepared for this just as the trump team is prepared for this. as we speak, there are hundreds of lawyers who have agreed to stop their regular law practice for however long this takes and work for either the former vice president or the president because you need lawyers in each state to contest the outcome. first before election officials and then before judges in that state. brian: we're in going to need a blowout. let's switch gears if we can a federal judge ruled in favor of four defendants in the 66-page, i guess, dossier says, listen, judgment. pennsylvania governor tom wolf was way too oppressive in his lockdown orders and the judge says lift them up. judge, what does this mean in all practical purposes for everyone in pennsylvania? >> brian, i'm ecstatic at this ruling but only brian kilmeade could call a judicial ruling a dossier. [laughter] look,. ainsley: please, no more dossiers. >> right. this is a -- it's about time ruling in which a federal judge. this is a first federal judge in the country who said just because there is a pandemic and a health emergency doesn't give the state dictatorial powers. and the constitution still prevails. so, what does this mean? in pennsylvania, the governor cannot decide what work is essential and what work is not essential. the governor cannot decide how many people can enter a church or enter a walmart or enter a car dealership or enter a furniture store. these are choices for individuals to make on their own. sthank goodness we finally have. this governor wolf who was humiliated by this decision because it turned out their decisions, their lockdowns were based upon newspaper articles of what other states were doing rather than on the scientific basis of what was happening in pennsylvania. i'm sure he is going to appeal in this morning, but this is a brilliant and gifted ruling that we all should be lauding. it shows how it's about time the constitution applies. steve: you mentioned governor gr wolf. he has a statement. he will appeal the decision. his people say the actions taken by the administration were mirrored by governors across the country and saved and continue to save lives in the be a sense of federal action. this decision is especially worrying as pennsylvania and the rest of the country are likely to face a challenging time with the possible resurgence of covid and the flu in the fall and the winter as well. and, judge, so that's not surprising. but something that you have said all through this pandemic is as the governments have in a patchwork manner slowed things down, locked things down, have you said, you know, i it could e six months from now it. could be a year from now but people will look back at this time and be shocked at the civil liberties we gave up during this time. brian: absolutely. >> that's exactly what the federal judge in pennsylvania said yesterday no matter how dangerous the threat to public health, the government is not unfettered. and it still must comply with the constitution, which means individuals make choices for themselves rather than being told what to do by the government. brian: remember, our founding fathers fought for the right to eat indoors and that's all we want. >> yes, brian. there is no pandemic exception to the bill of rights. thankfully. steve: so, brian, is that part of your dinner dossier? ainsley: just read the dossier and you will figure out what the founding fathers want you had. brian: just want to be able to dine and have waiters serve us indoors. >> brian, i'm about to email you the dossier, brian.

>> first, it's a clos sal honor to me and my family and muslim people around the world that president trump cares so deeply about repairing one of the biggest rifts in history. that's extraordinary. the fact that it's done by this president in this pandemic and almost 20 years to the day after 9/11 is amazing. and it's a very exciting time the whole muslim world is standing watching this. and this will change the muslim majority world forever. not only the arab world. ainsley: nancy pelosi is watching. this listen to what she called it. >> why have been waiting for a very long time for the president's proposal for an israeli palestinian peace agreement that honored the two stated solution. it still hasn't come. good for him for having a distraction on a day when the numbers of people who are affected and the numbers of people who are dying from this virus only increases. ainsley: a distraction? your reaction? >> i think that's shameful and pitiful. first of all, the entire arab league has been supportive of this decision not only with israel and uae and bahrain. how uncharitable, every believer, whether you are muslim, christian, jewish, atheist, every american democrat or republican must welcome the end of hostilities and engagement so integral to the future of the middle east. this is very upsetting to hear and just -- it actually reflects very poorly on the speaker of the house. ainsley: what about the palestinians? some are saying they think this will help them come around, that's what omar gabash said with the united arab emirates some saying they are going to reject. this president trump has kept the door open for the palestinians. they are now going to see what engagement with israel actually means that is a blueprint how they can engage with the deal that was conceived by jared kushner and president trump and the will arab leaders in january. this is only a case of what can come. and, also, the muslim world itself is showing the palestinians now are becoming increasingly isolated and must take this deal or there will be no support or no leverage for them. we want palestinians to be engaged, to be empowered, to be economically mobile, to be geographically mobile. all of that is possible and already on the table thanks to the president. ainsley: i know it's historic day. i hope you enjoy it right there live and in person. it's called the abraham accords and thank you so much dr. ahmed. >> thank you so much, ainsley. ainsley: coming up in the next hour kevin mccarthy and charles payne. s. but even if your teen was vaccinated against meningitis in the past... they may be missing vaccination for meningitis b. let's help protect them together. because missing menb vaccination could mean missing out on a whole lot more. ask your doctor if your teen is missing meningitis b vaccination. my wife and daughter had been killed in an automobile crash, and lying in the bed were my two little boys. i couldn't have imagined what it would've been like if i didn't have insurance to cover them immediately and fully. forty years later, one of those little boys, my son beau, was diagnosed with terminal cancer, given months to live. i can't fathom what would have happened if the insurance companies had the power to say, "the last few months, you're on your own." the fact of the matter is health care is personal to me. obamacare is personal to me. when i see the president of the united states try to eliminate this health care in the middle of a public health crisis, that's personal to me too. we've got to build on what we did because every american deserves affordable health care. i'm joe biden and i approve this message. did you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance deserves affordablta-da!th care. so you only pay for what you need? given my unique lifestyle, that'd be perfect! let me grab a pen and some paper. know what? i'm gonna switch now. just need my desk... my chair... and my phone. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ steve: hurricane sally is slowly inching toward the gulf coast right now. >> this is potentially catastrophic and deadly. >> rallying behind the law enforcement deputies shot in ambush attack. >> not about the money that comes. in outpouring of support. >> give a climate arsonist four more years how many suburban neighborhoods will be flooded out. how many stubborns will have been blown away. >> trump is to blame for all natural disasters. >> i know we come from different sides of the planet but we actually have a very good relationship. >> i want to thank you and acknowledge the work that you have done in terms of your response. >> we'll need to make sure you have a president in the white house, a harris administration together with joe biden. a harris administration. ♪ only in america living in red, white and blue. ainsley: good morning to you. the man that lives right there in the white house is going to join us 8 a.m. hour at 8:00. hopefully have him for the whole hour. sometimes they say 30 mention and we get the whole hour. look forward to talking to him. brian: absolutely. great to see somebody in the pence administration along with donald trump be able to talk to us about running the country. a little bit of a fraudian slip there ove -- freudianslip there. maybe she thinks so, too steve. steve: you know what? yesterday joe biden misspoke and he was talking about how things would be if he was reelected. so, we have the president on today, joe biden. we would love to have you on tv for an hour as well. please, think about it you know how to get ahold of us. 8888-tell fox. now somebody is going to be ringing it in the control room. extreme weather alert. we are tracking hurricane sally as it goes ever so slowly toward the gulf coast at this hour. ainsley: yeah. the storm is expected to bring historic and life threatening flooding. president trump already approving disaster declarations for parts of mississippi, alabama, and louisiana. brian: janice dean all over this tracking sally's path right now. janis? >> yeah. we have got tropical storm force winds all along the coast from louisiana towards mississippi and alabama and the florida panhandle. and the storm is moving at around 2 miles per hour. so, what does that tell you? it's going to bring a prolonged water event. storm surge, flash flooding, and those tropical storm force winds for duration of hours. 12 hours, 20 hours for some of these areas. we are dealing with a category 1 hurricane. but i keep stressing it doesn't matter what the category is. the results will be the same. it doesn't take a hurricane to cause an immense amount of damage. it sometimes can just take a depression that's bringing in all of this water from the gulf of mexico and as you can see, the storm is going to be with us wednesday into thursday. not moving very quickly at all. remember what happened in harvey? a couple of years ago? texas? coastal texas received 40 inches of rainfall in this case we could receive upwards of 24, even 30 inches of rain across portions of mississippi, towards alabama and the florida panhandle right there. so high risk of flooding, the greatest flash flood risk in some of these areas will be southeastern louisiana through mississippi and alabama and the florida panhandle over the next three days. so this is not a quick moving storm. and that's going to be the legacy of sally is the flooding and the storm surge. just continuing to push all of this gulf of mexico water inland over the next 12 to 24 hours. we expect a landfall some time overnight tonight into tomorrow morning and, again, because of the slow movement, that's why we are so concerned with the flooding event. know whether a to do if there is a flash flood warning in your area. the water could come up quickly. you need to go up to the top of your home. in some cases you might even need an ax to get on to the top of the roof of your home because we are talking about so much flooding in this area. i want to make people aware. i don't want to scare folks. but you have to be prepared. this is going to be a major, major flood event over the next several days. steve, anxiously, brian, back to you. steve: all right, j.d., thank you very much. meanwhile 7:05 in new york city. another first alert. new surveillance video shows the dramatic moments after two la county sheriff deputies were ambushed over the weekend. and here is a warning. the video is graphic. ainsley: one of the deputies is a 31-year-old motherrened and she saved her partner's life. placed a tourniquet on her partner while frantically called for help. her words because she was shot in the jaw. barely audible. brian: while the gunman is still on the run this morning. will reward for his arrest $200,000. they are confident they will catch this guy and bring him to justifiable. that doesn't look like there is any accomplices but who knows. steve: let's bring in house minority leader kevin mccarthy. he joining us right now from our nation's capital. leader, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> are from california. i'm sure you would like to say a few things about those deputies. >> my heart goes out to my prayers. when you watch that 31-year-old deputy, the mother of a 6-year-old. a former librarian who just passed the academy a year ago shot through the jaw, you can't even quite hears a she calls. in not only is she treating her other deputy, she is looking out to see if the shooter is coming back with blood across her face. but you know what is most telling to me? is my u.s. senator kamala harris. the former attorney general of california, the top cop as people would call her has said nothing, has not stood up against. this now when across the country saying you should defund the police. when you watch the videos of those sitting by laughing at those police officers who were shot. not caring for them or helping them. when they were sitting in the car protecting the community. it's appalling and disgusting to me. this is what is transpiring if we athrough democrat policy to continue. this is why we need to do something different. steve: what democrat policy? >> they are talking about defunding the police. they continue to talk about it throughout the community. they incite the ability for people to do this. that this is going to be okay. why don't they rise up to condemn this? why don't they rise up to go see those officers? why don't they help look for the individual who did this to bring them glurve remember, kamala harris was the attorney general of california. she was the top cop of california. this is a person that she should have prosecuted. why has she been silent on this? ainsley: you know, you live in california. we have been watching these wildfires and it is so sad. i hate that y'all's state is going through this and continuously go through this on a regular basis. the president went out there and gavin newsom actually praised him he said we have our differences on climate control or climate change but we stand together on this and he thanked him for the quick response that i have never gotten this money so quickly. meanwhile, joe biden he was in delaware. and he said that the president is a climate arsonist. listen to this. >> this is another crisis another crisis he won't take responsibility for. to give a climate arsonist four more years in the white house, why would anyone be surprised if we have more of america ablaze; give a climate denialer four more years in the white house why would anyone be surprised when more of america is under water. hurricanes don't swerve to avoid red states or blue states. wildfires don't skip towns that voted a certain way. the impacts of climate change don't pick and choose. ainsley: what's your response to that? >> well, i think joe biden is out of touch. because i have been with the president and governor newsom on the ground during these fires. i have watched them work together. you've heard governor newsom praise this president but, more importantly, governor newsom took from the last time there to actually change the policies in california, to make sure there is fewer fuel out there so it would not burn so intense as it has before. what we really need to do here is put fire breaks in. to be able to put the roads back. in these are years of policies that have built up to create in this has become a real problem. yes. the climate is changing. yes, that is contributing to it. but that is not the ability to just stop this. it's the action taken. this president and have you watched gavin newsom not only praise this president on his quick on the phone together doing. this but more importantly on what he did with covid. even on the view, the most democrat television you can watch, gavin newsom would not criticize the president because the president has been out front. he brought navy ship to california. he provided the information. this is a president that shows he can work with the reddist of states. with the reddist of governors. all you have to do is be willing to work with the president. it goes to show you that you don't have to agree on everything to agree to work together. i think the american people as opposed to what's going on in new york and with other governors like the one in pennsylvania. but you also have a plan, minority leader mccarthy to become the speaker. and you have it for the house. so what is your road map back to get those 17 seats needed to grab the house? >> well, the question is name me one problem that the democrat majority in congress has actually solved. has actually been discussing the action. yeah, they have done impeachment and yes, they have just focused on that. we have made a equipment commitment to america that we are rolling out today that. we will restore the american way of life. rebuild our biggest economy and renew what we are doing. if we are able to do that we will reunite this country. and it talks about a plan for covid, to triple our testing. to actually have a cure and a vaccine. to protect the pre-existing conditions. but, also, very important, is to make sure our communities are safe, secure and healthy. it means not defunding the police but adding 1.75 with for training and adding body cameras. investing in stem in our schools and letting the parpghtsd have the choice for children to go to the very best schools. brian: what seats are you targeting, kevin. what seats are you targeting to flip. >> i have 53 seats out there. can you go clear across from charleston, south carolina, neansz mayes the first grawftd the citadel to salt lake city with burgess owens or go down to miami key west. carlos or maria salazar next to it. or orange county young kim michelle steele. these are districts across this nation where if you look at the republicans who have committed to america, there are more women running than ever in the history of the republican party. there are more women that have won their primaries. there are more minorities. there are more veterans. this is about taking this country back and fighting for it. not accepting nancy pelosi as being the speaker. and if people want to join us, go to take the house.com and make sure nancy is retired once and for all. steve: okay. let's see what happens. seven weeks to the election. kevin mccarthy we know you are very busy. thank you for starting your morning here after the fox. >> thank you. steve: all right it. is 7:12 here in new york city. jillian joins us as well with news from pennsylvania. >> that's right. good morning. let's talk about this. the police station in lancaster, pennsylvania closed to the public indefinitely following days of protests. 8 people were arrested monday following demonstrations that damaged the station. the large crowds protesting the deadly police shooting of ricardo munoz. body camera video shows the moments leading up to the shooting. munoz appearing to charge at an officer with a knife. the 60 under investigation. the state department issuing new travel advisories for china and hong kong overnight. the department says travelers could be arbitrarily detained and interrogated without due process. people in hong kong are specifically warned to avoid demonstrations china's foreign ministry called the advisory unwarranted. a federal judge are rules acting dhs secretary chad wolf is likely serving in his role unlawfully. the judge says wolf's appointment did not follow the department's order of succession giving him no authority to amend policies. the ruling also blocks the agency from enforcing new asylum restrictions, including making asylum seekers waited longer for jobs. dhs has not commented on the decision. jeopardy is back. the iconic show look as little different but one thing remains the same. >> here is the host of jeopardy, alex trebek. [cheers and applause] >> thank you johnny and thank you, ladies and gentlemen. and welcome, everyone. welcome, welcome, welcome. >> host alex trebek showing off the new socially distanced set. the podiums are spaced apart and there is no studio audience. trebek who is bat ling pancreatic cancer. safe. he looks fantastic. ainsley: i know all those prayers lifting up for them. he looks great. pushing for gun control hours after two sheriff step at this were ambushed sitting in patrol car. attorney and activist. he is going to react to the vp's comments next. when we started carvana, they told us that selling cars 100% online wouldn't work. but we went to work. building an experience that lets you shop over 17,000 cars from home. creating a coast to coast network to deliver your car as soon as tomorrow. recruiting an army of customer advocates to make your experience incredible. and putting you in control of the whole thing with powerful technology. that's why we've become the nation's fastest growing retailer. because our customers love it. see for yourself, at carvana.com. when you drink or eat something that's acidic everyone is at risk for enamel loss. it sucks the minerals out of the tooth's surface. pronamel is formulated to help deliver minerals to the tooth's surface to help reharden and strengthen your enamel. i felt gross. people were afraid i was contagious. i was covered from head to toe. i was afraid to show my skin. after i started cosentyx i wasn't covered anymore. four years clear. five years now. i just look and feel better. see me. real people with psoriasis look and feel better with cosentyx. don't use if you're allergic to cosentyx. before starting, get checked for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor about an infection or symptoms, if your inflammatory bowel disease symptoms develop or worsen, or if you've had a vaccine, or plan to. serious allergic reactions may occur. five years is just crazy. see me. learn more at cosentyx.com. another day, another chance tlet's do this.rd. by making internet speeds fast and reliable. so you can keep up with your customers. by ensuring those speeds have wireless internet backup. so if the power goes down, your connection doesn't. and by covering all your connected devices with serious security. so we can handle this. and this. while you get on with this. and this. be fast, be secure. bounce forward. with comcast business. get started with a powerful internet and voice solution for just $64.90 a month. call or go online today. brian: all right. gun sales rising across the country with nine swing states seeing a record setting surge. this as joe biden pushes gun control less than 24 hours after two california deputies were ambushed in a patrol car tweeting the weapons of war have no place in our communities. isn't that kind of odd? we need to ban assault weapons in high capacity magazines were. they even used in this event? could this event come down to a battle over the second amendment and safety concerns? here to react is attorney and gun rights activist coal i don't know noir. what's your reaction to these sales doesn't steam surprise people all things considered i don't think anybody should be surprised what joe biden did either. he has been running from the same playbook for the last 40 years now. as and rahm emanuel, the former mayor of chicago once said never let he a tragedy go to waste. that's exactly what joe biden is doing here. any given point he will push for more gun control because inherent goal is to undermine the second amendment or my standpoint destroy the second amendment. a lot of people think i'm fear mongering when i say things like that when you look at his gun control program the very first measure he has is basically removing the protection that the gun industry has destroy the industry. gun groups bring toward the gun industry wrap it up as far as legislation, legality and basically have them in court so much they don't have the time or ability to do anything else in terms of running their business. and so, as far as i'm concerned, if you are allegedly pro-2 a or somebody who supports the second amendment you are not going to try to remove the legislation in place or designed protect the industry engaged in that right. brian: doing a million things while we were doing that we put up a full screen. the numbers are stunning. in terms of background checks, arizona is up 177%. michigan 240%. minnesota 88%. pennsylvania 128%. you get the idea of the country is alarmed that police to a degree have been essentially disempower sod we almost feel like we are on our own that's always been the case not because police don't want to do their june. police can't always be there. there aren't enough cops. what people are starting to realize now starting to see it first happened. us pro-gun people have always known this went out and took measures to defend ourself in case the police couldn't do it. because of the chaos 2020 bringing it front and center and people are starting to understand their vulnerability and trying to do something about t interesting considering a lot of these people probably lean toward the left. when the chips were down and came down to the most important thing it was their right to own a firearm. so absolutely i think this is going to be a big issue this year. brian: all right. real quick. the assault weapons ban, during the clinton years it was put in place and then it was overturned and that's what joe biden wants to go back to. it doesn't look like it applies from what we can see from the l.a. shooting to begin with. number two, is what would be bad about an assault weptio weaponsn weapon of war they say. >> assault weapons ban the reason wife they didn't reenact it didn't work. that's what a lot of people don't realize. of the reason they did away with it. it this didn't do anything to affect crime. the assault weapons ban essentially within as ar-15. that is the most viable platform that we have right now to be able to protect yourself. that's why it's also the most important rifle in the country right now. so, having that, that's just a starting point. because at some points they are going to start with ar-15 and inevitably go onto the handguns which is why joe biden which is he referencing the shooting in l.a. is he talking about weapons of war even though the individual used a handgun. he doesn't care. it doesn't matter what i used his ultimate goal is to ban them all. brian: that's what makes people want to buy them just in case he wins they feel they won't be able to get them. take your gun away, people go out and buy guns. that explains a lot of the surge in sales. colion noir, you are a man ahead of your time. thank you so much. >> thank you. brian: coming up straight ahead, the late supreme court justice antonin scalia spent decades on the bench. his son christopher scalia will join us live next. ♪ ♪ anything you want ♪ you got it ♪ anything you need you ♪ you got it ♪ anything at all ♪ you got it ♪ baby ♪ r shingles. the pain, the burning! my husband had to do everything for weeks. and the thing is, there's nothing you can do about it! [camera man] well, shingles can be prevented. shingles can be whaaat? [camera man] prevented. you can get vaccinated. frank! they have shingles vaccines! -whaaat? -that's what i said. we're taking you to the doctor. not going through that again. [camera man] you can also get it from your pharmacist! talk to your doctor or pharmacist about getting vaccinated. steve: time now 7:27 for news by the numbers. first is 235. that's how many retired military leaders are throwing their support behind president trump. they say our historic way of life is at stake and the president is a proven leader, and that's why they are ebb dorszing him. next, 17 bucks an hour. that's how much the minimum wage will be for full time workers at hobby lobby starting next month. the arts and craft store says they want to help employees during these challenging pandemic times. and finally, 40 feet. that's how deep this sinkhole is. fire crews in florida rescued a golden retriever got stuck in the bottom. used two ladders and a hope system to rescue sammy as you can see in the video. sammy was not hurt and sammy was back home right now barking to get outside. ainsley? ainsley: thank you, steve. well, he was one of the most consequential jurists in american history. justifiable antonin scalia was a forceful voice during his more than 30 years on the supreme court. his commanding intellect and remarkable whit were on display and many legal theories and interpretations of the constitution. now a new book gives us inside look at the late justifiable's legal legacy in his own words. the book, the essential scalia is out today and the justifiable's son christopher scalia joins us now. hey, christopher. >> hey good to see you again. 8 o8 nine children. ainsley: you were honoring your dad why did you decide to write this book? >> i actually am just here to hype the book. this book is a really important collection of my father's legal opinions as you were explaining in his views about very broad issues about, for example, thousand ininterpret the constitution. how to interpret laws. the spration of powers and things like that as well as his opinions about very specific issues like what was being discussed in the last segment the right to bear arms, free speech, abortion, the right of defendants and things like that. this is an important book because, you know, he was, as you said, and as justifiable kagan says in her forward to this selection one of the greatest supreme court justices. this book helps clarify to readers why that is. and i think it also will give readers a very clear sense of why the supreme court is so important and what it is exactly justices do. ainsley: i read that forward and she said the moment she got an interpretation from your father, she didn't a minute to read it. she sat down immediately and wanted to see what his viewpoints were. are there any interpretations that surprised you or that you disagreed with? >> well, i think most people kind of assume that because he was conservative that his opinions always kind of supported conservative policies. that's really just not the case. his approach to interpreting the constitution known as originalism and approach toe to laws contextialism dictate that you focus on the original public meaning of what's before you whether you agree with that or not. for example, on issues like rights of the accused or one of his more controversial decisions on flag-burning he ended up being on the side that would have -- that ruled in kind of opposite ways and he say would have voted if it were at the ballot box. >> he was considered the most talkative and asked the most questions of any justifiable ever on the supreme court. does that surprise you? >> >> no. he liked to talk. he liked to argue. it was kind of a perfect job for him in a lot of ways. and, yeah, he really to a large degree kind of changed the culture of the court. that's again something justice kagan points out in her forward. he made oral arguments more robust, a lot more gregarious and vias via bacious. he changed the way lawyers across america talk and think about the law even if you don't agree with my father's approach to interpret the law. if you are a lawyer or supreme court justice now you kind of have to know and approach what his approach would be, what kind of questions he would ask. ainsley: what do you miss most about your dad?

>> hey, guys, good morning. we are at alabama down this way down my left shoulder is a place called dolphin island we tried to go that way. waves crashing. there is standing water everywhere. this storm is going so slow it's just water on the ground this is something that officials said the live and drain systems in these states louisiana, alabama and mississippi especially around the gulf. i don't know if you guys can see but the wind over here it's howling. can i hear it over here, back here. the rain is coming down as i said officials have said do not drive through that standing water. driving from mississippi and alabama and all of that we have seen people who have not evacuated as their lights are still on in their homes. back to you. steve: ashley, thank you very much from the live report from alabama. please be careful. meanwhile, let's ghil janice dean it's going to take a while for slow moving storm to come on shore but really it's all the rain that we have got to worry about. >> absolutely. and remember the right side of the storm is where we are going to see the potential for all of the storm surge and all of the heavy rain and those even a tornadoes threat throughout the day today for parts of the gulf coast. 85 mile-per-hour sustained winds. category 1. but i have been mentions it doesn't matter what the category is. it's still potentially could strengthen a little bit. but the fact that it is moving two miles per hour means a prolonged water events. so storm surge with 102020, even 30 inches of rainfall on top of that and the pounding waves and wind along the coast is going to cause quite a bit of damage and life-threatening conditions. there's the track. we will get a new track right before 8:00 a.m. and we'll certainly bring you the very latest. but the landfall, i mean, we could be seeing this storm just stall out for 12 to 18 hours before it moves inland. and then it doesn't move much quicker over the next couple of days either parts of the florida panhandle georgia and southeast are going to be dealing with this tropical system for several days. so, we don't focus on the landfall because it's going to remain offshore for many hours. storm surge in some areas east of the center of the storm once it makes landfall certainly 7 to 9 feet of storm surge and then on top of that, we could see easily 20 to 30 inches of rain and that's really going to be the legacy of this storm system. very dangerous. greatest flash flood risk along the mississippi, louisiana, alabama in towards the florida panhandle. of course, we get that advisory a little bit before 8:00 a.m. and we'll make sure we bring you the very latest, steve, ainsley, brian, back to you. ainsley: we will get that right before 8:00 and the president is going to join us at 8:00. thanks so much, janis. we'll be watching that washington's spending would hit highest level in decades under joe biden's budget plan. brian rain to that according to a new analysis. biden's proposal would spending $5.37 trillion while raising more than 3.4 trillion in new taxes. steve: rear with handle the host of making money on fox bills charles payne. charles, that's a lot of money we are talking about, but, at the same time, the federal government has been spending a lot of money in covid relief. >> well, not only that to your point, you you could have just stopped at the federal government has been spending a lot of money and you could have said for a long time, right? no matter how much money they raise they spend more. you i think what's worrisome with joe biden is every time he speaks, that number unofficially goes higher. particularly when it comes to something like climate and blue energy sort of agenda. so the more if he wants to make california more about climate than then that means he lurches further to the left. more into the green new deal kind of thing. i think the most important thing to understand from this and, again, i think these numbers are low, to be quite frank. but, what i took away from it is that every taxpayers will see their taxes go up. very bottom 2.2% will go up to 2.8%. the second the middle will go all of them will go up. top 01% will have the largest per sent of increase. interesting the lowest three bottom are going to have major percentage changes in their taxes so it's one of these things where if you think that someone else is paying the bill, you better think otherwise. and there is some negative impact to that because this money, if it's not going into the economy instead into government's coffers that means slower economic growth. ains angsz so these numbers are pretty interesting as far as home ownership is concerned. the rates in 2020 in the second quarter among millennials 40.6% plunge millennials under the age of 35 buying homes. 47% among african-american. 51.4% among hispanics. why is that? >> actually, according to this census hispanic home ownership in the second quarter is 51.4%. i want to point out that that's an all-time high. all-time record high for blacks, 47% it's the highest percentage since the third quarter of 2008. for under 35 the same thing. overall for the united states, the largest increase that first quarter to second quarter was absolutely amazing. we are seeing people of all stripes fleeing cities. and here's it's thing. they are further away. some of them are finding more affordable housing. the face of the suburbs looks a whole lot different. something that every president used to brag about. every single president one of the top items on their agenda is home ownership. that's seen of one of the top symbols of the american dream. this notion there is this home ownership going on under the radar without a lot of fanfare is mind boggling. something we should celebrate. it's a major, major achievement. particularly during a pandemic. brian: that's true, too. a lot of people leaving the cities like i have never seen in my lifetime. we will see if that just is temporary or not. we talk about the unemployment rate now into double figures. 8.3%. there is a sense out there that maybe some of these jobless claims will be permanent jobless situations. in terms of numbers, 534,000 jobs lost in august. 3.4 million since february when we shut the economy down what do your sources say, charles, what do you think? >> i agree. those numbers are from the bureau of labor statistics. that was in the last jobs report. you just said it, brian. you shut the entire economy down, there is going to be permanent structural damage. and the longer parts of it stay locked down, the more structural damage they will be. and then if you don't open schools, even as virtual school learning, the long-term impact is going to have particularly on mirnghtsd so-called minority communities, the so-called achievement gap, we are talking about long-term damage to job skills. the availability of jobs. the ability to even earn. so, you know, this all gets back to how long you keep the economy locked down because every single day any parts of this economy is locked down, that means more businesses are going out. we had a vaccine a month from now that still means we will probably between now and a month lose half a million more permanent jobs. this is a sense of urgency, a cry, an sos to the united states congress to get your act together. they are not listening. steve: because so many people are indeed hurting and those numbers are jaw-dropping. charles, thank you very much. we are going to be watching you this afternoon over on the fox business channel with making money. thank you, sir. all right. and in pops jillian with the news. jillian: magic. let's begin with this headline we are following. chicago police are seeing officers targeted five times more than previous years. >> so if you have got a question about what are we doing to reduce violence, we are risking everything. 65 chicago cops have been shot at or shot this year. jillian: so of those officers were hit by gun five. this weekend there were 35 shootings with at least 10 murders. police in oregon first arrested domingo lopez jr. on sunday near a freeway just hours after being released on his own recognizance. he was found walking along the same road starting more small fires. he was taken to the hospital for a mental health evaluation and charged with reckless burning it comes as reckless wildfires burn in the state. at least 10 people have been killed. a writer from the atlantic is facing backlash after arguing that democrats may not accept a trump victory. the article says the left might not concede if president trump wins re-election especially if he loses the popular vote. joe biden under these circumstances is the worst case because it is the outcome most likely to undermine faith in democracy resulting in more of the social unrest and battles in cities including portland oregon and seattle have seeny in recent months. meation's thanksgiving 3r5eud will only happen on tv this year because of the coronavirus. still feature performances and balloons only along a one stretch. specialized vehicles instead of handlers but some good news here. rest assured, santa is guaranteed to show up at the end. second it back to you. ainsley: one block?

i made a mistake. i didn't have my maverick on. i felt safe. you know what? let's open up all the hair salons instead she decided to go the other direction and blame me that i set her up, which i did not because i have had security cameras in there forever. she was not wearing a mask. she could indoors. >> we were not allowed to open outside yet. steve: that's right. it was after. this tuesday. she came in on monday. it was supposed to be tuesday. steve: okay. real quick exit question, when are you going to decide where you are going to go? >> when or where? i'm sorry? steve: both. when and where? >> oh, gosh, i'm still trying to figure that out. i have some friends in orange county. i live in fresno. i will take the next month or two to look around and figure that out. where i'm welcome to be and i'm safe. steve: i'm sure there are whole other states that would love to see you but you have family out there. when you make a determination, erica, please come back. >> oh, i will for sure. thank you so much. steve: you bet. all right. thank you very much. good luck. >> thank you. steve: stick around, folks. in a couple of minutes, the president is going to join us live on this show. pronamel is formulated to help deliver minerals to the tooth's surface to help reharden and strengthen your enamel. u ... only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ until i found out what itust?

it's the most crazy thing i've ever seen. i think i should try that some time. i'm going to do that. brian: you have a teleprompter you don't use it. you kind of wing it in your live events but the one thing you just watched, mr. president, because you do watch the news, you see what's happening in alabama, louisiana, and mississippi. what do you, what do they tell you and what could you tell our audience about what to expect now? president trump: well it's not what it was the one a month ago that was really bad and we got very lucky that was really big coming in but it went through an area that didn't have as much stuff as the expression goes. when it starts going through city areas and cities and that happens too, but we did a great job with that one last time. we got a little bit lucky both in texas and in louisiana, because it got pieces of both that weren't heavily occupied but it still does tremendous damage. this one is smaller but it's a little bit more direct, but we have it under control. we have fema there. we have the army corps of engineers is all they can bring things back so fast you wouldn't leave it and they're great. the coast guard is always involved. the coast guard is an mvp. they've done so good and saved so many lives. you wouldn't believe how many people are out there when these storms come in. some people go storm watching in boats it's like why are they doing that but the coast guard is incredible. if you remember texas two years ago they saved 6,000 lives it's not even believable the numbers and they have been fantastic so we have it under watch very strongly and fema is there long ago, actually a couple days ago before it hit, and they're doing a real good job and out in the california fires i was there yesterday with them and it's california, washington and oregon, washington state, and they are out there and these are really incredible people, and very brave, very brave. steve: yeah they certainly are, and they are up against it with these two gigantic jobs facing them. mr. president, we'll talk about the wildfires in a moment but i think the number one story over the last five or six days has been the comments that you made to bob woodward regarding how you would downplay the pandemic to the people because you didn't want to freak them out. you didn't want panic on your hands. i think a lot of your supporters are going why on earth would the president of the united states sit down and talk to bob woodward something like 18 times on tape? president trump: well because i assumed he was a little bit fair i didn't do it previously. he only writes bad books and i actually got to read it last night. i read it very quickly and it was very boring. steve: do you think accurate, mr. president? president trump: that's a boring book. it's okay. i mean, it's fine. i don't want to create panic. people say oh, you should have gone out there and say, you know , jumped up and down, you're going to die, you're going to die. no i don't want to do that. i don't want to build it up and i'll say it right now. we're rounding the turn of the pandemic. we're rounding the turn. i was in arizona yesterday the numbers are very good. if you look at texas is coming down, florida is doing great. places that were really a problem the east coast is doing great. i was with gavin newsom yesterday, his numbers are getting very low. we're doing good and we have a vaccine coming very shortly. the vaccine is going to be here very soon and we've already got therapeutics with remdesivir and other things, the plasma. we have, you know, we've had a tremendous number of people that get better now that didn't get better three months ago. steve: mr. president, what about the critics who say that you're putting pressure on the federal government to approve a vaccine so you can have an october surprise and so the people will feel like okay, we finally got this , we got a grip on the pandemic. there is a vaccine. president trump: yeah, i'm not doing it for political reasons. i want the vaccine fast. if this were like i call it the o-biden administration, you would not have a vaccine for year, i've sped up the process with the fda, they've been great. dr. hahn has been great, the head of the fda, alex azar has been fantastic and its been incredible what we've done because we'll have a vaccine in a matter of weeks, it could be four weeks, it could be eight weeks but we're going to have it and we're getting very good results and it's really looking good and they are great companies, pfizer, johnson & johnson, moderna, we have a lot of great companies they aren't just one and they are all doing really well. it's going to be soon. now will it be before the election it could be in terms of if we have something and we'll start delivering it immediately upon getting it, but we're very close to getting the vaccine, and that's something i look forward to, and i think it be so good for the world not just for us, for the world. now you have other people looking for vaccines and we'll see how they do and we're working in conjunction with them , but we're going to have a vaccine very very soon. we're also going to have additional therapeutics. we have some great things, and we have some great things in-store, so in development right now, so, i think we're really going to do something very special. we'll see what happens, but if this were another administration , you would have been talking about two years, if you're lucky, before you got to this point. ainsley: one more question on the pandemic really quickly because we want to get to the deputy shooting and get out to the california wildfires but i was flipping around different stations yesterday last night and there were all these shots of you and nevada in henderson, nevada all saying they were critical of you for ignoring the public health professional's warnings against the indoor gatherings during the pandemic and i know some people in your administration have responded and said why weren't you critical of the rioters that were shoulder to shoulder not wearing masks what do you say? president trump: well i do say that but i'll tell you we had four sites or five sites, a lot of sites outdoor sites i had it the night before, we're in minde n, right outside of reno , and we had a tremendous crowd there. probably 30,000, close to 30,000 people. we had more people outside that couldn't get in but we had this big open site and it was great. the governor of the state tried to make it impossible for us to have a rally. you know, democrat rather liberal democrat and a political hack, and he tried to make it difficult, and we had this great supporter who said i don't care. the pressure was put on him and we had an unbelievable rally we were outside and then we had another one scheduled the following day in las vegas and it was terrible, because we kept getting, he wouldn't allow sites and he followed us. i mean, this guy was doing everything and his people, were doing everything possible. we had outdoor sites and this whole thing was planned. so then finally we get from a great supporter gave us this very big building and they put people in but that wasn't our fault. we had four outdoor sites maybe even five outdoor sites, and he wouldn't allow it to happen. now, this is the same guy that's going to be in charge of the ballots. do you think that's fair? it's millions of ballots are going out and he's the governor of the state. do you think it's a fair thing because i'm winning that state easily but the one thing he can't beat if they cheat on the ballots. now he will cheat on the ballots i have no doubt about it. this is the same man whose in charge of the ballots. so you have the -- steve: you're talking about the governor? >> the governor is in charge. they followed us everywhere they had a site. my people told me they've never seen anything like it. every place we had a big open site, outdoor site, which is great. it would have been perfect. they said no. so we had to go some place we ended up in a very big building, but i would have preferred being outside like we were the night before, but the night before was amazing that we got it because they were trying to break it up. this is what we're up against. this is what's happening, and it's a disgrace and you're going to see something with these ballots. you're going to see corruption like you've never seen. you're going to see a rigged election. this guy would do anything and he's in charge of the ballots. and that kind of a take in charge of the ballots so you have millions of ballots, the man that tried to prevent us from getting the site and he's the man that forced us inside. brian: right, but do you think that in retrospect, carl bernstein called you a homicidea l president who put together a homicideal assembly by bringing people indoors without masks, a lot chose not to wear masks in the middle of a pandemic. what's your response? president trump: well i know carl bernstein a little bit. he's a nut job. he's been a nut job for many years. he was the second wing. i don't have a lot of respect for either of them frankly but he was a total nut job, and i see him and he'll say anything. no matter what you did, liked to i'm doing a great deal with israel. israel, the uae, and bahrain, everyone said it was impossible. no matter what you do with some of the fake news, doesn't make any difference. this one is great. it's sort of interesting and i don't say this in a bragging way but i get nominated for the nobel peace prize last week on two different deals. the other was serbia, but i get nominated for that and in this case israel. it wasn't even on the nightly news. if can you imagine when obama was nominated, by the way he didn't do anything, he got it very quick and they couldn't even explain what he did which was a joke but when he got nominated it was all over the news. it's like very different standards, but carl bernstein is a dummy. he's a dumb guy, and woodward's book last night, i read it. it's like lightweight reading and he doesn't get it. when my policies turn out to be right, as they have with israel, we're going to have a lot of other countries joining us very soon by the way. they are all going to go in and then we'll have peace in the middle east and we're doing it through the back door. they've never thought of it before with all this talk, they never thought of it before, and we're getting accolades even the new york times and tom friet man said that's great. that's great. they gave us, i don't know you can't get a better review than they gave us on this day like what we've done here and with no death. we haven't had death that has not been fighting in fact we're bringing our troops back home from the ridiculous endless wars they are all coming home, and they should be home. it's enough. they've been there for 19 years. in afghanistan for 19 years it's ridiculous. steve: mr. president -- president trump: we're getting great accolades but the news doesn't cover it. the bernstein book was really boring. i have to tell you. steve: it was. president trump: and the woodward book and bernstein 's book, the guy can't write. but woodward's book to me was a very boring, it was a very boring, it was inaccurate. let's put it this way. no matter what you did it was going to be negative and i wanted to give it a shot. i didn't devote much time but i wanted to devote time. last time i didn't talk to him and it was a bad book. steve: do you regret it? president trump: well, last time i regretted it because i didn't talk to him once. i didn't talk to him one-time. steve: this time? president trump: this time, well i wanted to see if it could be done. the guys a democrat works with the washington post that tells you right there which is truly a i call it the , it's the , i guess you could say it's the flunky for amazon but works for the washington post, you know, all about the washington post. you don't get a break with them. but look, if you want to remain sane, just don't read it because what they do is disgraceful. what's happened to the news, what's happened to the media in this country is a terrible thing it's a shame, and it's really much of it is absolutely the enemy of the people and they see it and nobody said it like i say it but i say it loud and clear it's the enemy of the people whether it's the new york times, washington post, or the networks. think of it you get nominated for a nobel prize. steve: mr. president we're part of the press too are we the enemy of the people? president trump: no you're not i would say about 20% isn't. we don't have the enemy of the people all over fortunately but we have tremendous disparity you have tremendous unfairness in the press. i came up with a name long time ago it's the fake news media, and you have to live with it and one of the great things that i have, i have such a big social media presence, i can get around and get the word out and my presence too. i can do things that other people can't do, so, i get the word out, but the media is very very fair. the media is very corrupt actually. ainsley: so, let's talk about the hero, the la deputy that female she's 31 years old she was shot in the jaw. she put a tourniquet around her partner that they were both shot steve: ambushed. ainsley: it was all caught on camera and she put the tourniquet on her partner and tried to call for help it's not really audible but they got her message in and she was saying 998, she was calling for help because both officers were down and she was doing her best to save the high of her partner. she was a former librarian, a mother to a six-year-old child and she really just wanted to be a police officer. her dad was called and her dad said she is in stable condition but the leading investigative officer said by the grace of god both will pull through but will be life-altering for both of them. have you talked to her family and how do we fix this problem because it's something that's concerning to everyone in our country. do we need to go into these communities, do we need to send these officers and these chiefs of police into these communities to work with them? do we hire police officers within the communities to monitor their neighborhoods, what do we do? president trump: we have to get much tougher. we're getting weak and soft with a lot of the democrat-run cities and you're not seeing this. take a look at the cities, the top 10 are democrat-run, the top 25 are i think almost all democrat-run, and their policies are horrible. they've taken respect away from police officers. they've degraded them. they've fired them. you look at new york, they fired a tremendous number of police and crime is through the roof, but they fired them. they make it so that if you do, if you speak up, you end up los ing your pension, you end up losing your job, and they've taken what they do so well, like new york's finest. they endorsed me. chicago police just endorsed me. you know it's not easy for them to do, because of the leadership in the cities, but they endorsed me. new york endorsed me, so many endorsed me, texas, florida, ohio were endorsed by almost everybody. i can't imagine anybody endorsing biden with his views. i mean his views are death. he doesn't have any views. brian: he seems to be slowly coming around to it. yesterday you were on the west coast and you traveled the country and went to arizona but you sat there with governor newsom and listened to what the problem was and also he was thankful for all of the help you gave and as quick as you gave it i think it's great for the american people to see , two people who differ on taxes, and the environment, and other things, but get along personal ly, but here is the other thing i want to ask you. in 2009 you endorsed action on climate change, you committed clear the green new deal is too extreme. what is the right way to act, to react, to climate change within reason, without destroying the economy? if you did say and didn't notice even back then, there was something going on. president trump: well look, brian. you have forests all over the world. you don't have fires like you do in california. in europe, they have forest cities. you look at countries, austria and so many countries they live in the forest and they consider forest cities so many of them, and they don't have fires like this , and they have more explosive trees. they have trees that will catch easier, but they maintain their fire. they have an expression, they " thin the fuel." the fuel is what's on the ground the leave, the trees that fall, they are like a match stick, after 18 months if they are underground longer than 18 months, they are very explosive and they have to get rid of that stuff. brian: i think he agreed with you, didn't the governor agree with you on that and having said that -- president trump: he didn't originally when i first brought it up. and we've been working on that. brian: i just did follow-up on that. if you do think whether it's manmade or not if the climate is changing and the number one issue for people under 35 is climate change like it or not and in 2009 you were there saying i think something needs to be done. what is the right answer if the green new deal is too extreme? president trump: well you want to clean up your plants, clean-up your auto pollution, clean up a lot of things remember we have a little problem called other countries, and they don't follow suit. like china sends up tremendous filth into the air, and into our oceans by the way. india, likewise. russia, likewise. so we're doing all of this. we're one piece, but we're like 5% and you have other countries, these are massive countries, that have not done what they should be doing and so we can clean it up but you still have a lot of stuff because of places like china and frankly, russia and also india in particular, and they send very very dirty particulates up into the air and you talk about the carbon footprint, they do big numbers of the carbon footprint and so look what i want, i want absolutely immaculate clean water. i want clean air. i want perfect clean air and by the way, we have it. we have really good clean air. we have good clean water better than we had before. we have better than we had before. you know in carbon, we have less carbon now going up into the air than they had under under the obama administration. we do things a different way but we're doing a great job and we're not putting our businesses out of business. a lot of the things they want to do would put our businesses right out of business. we wouldn't be competitive as a country any more and there are people that don't care about that. they say that's okay. put everybody out of business. they really don't care. the green new deal is a farse. the green new deal would really cost $100 trillion that's more money than we could make in 100 years it's ridiculous and it would put us, our factories be pleased, our businesses be closed it's ridiculous you know that. steve: well mr. president whenever there's something in the news, joe biden does emerge from his compound to make a statement. he was in wilmington, delaware yesterday, super socially distanced. president trump: he's always in wilmington, delaware. steve: that's absolutely pretty accurate. he's out in an open field everybody is like 20 feet apart, very socially distanced. he had some harsh words for you, called you a climate arsonist and said this , as well. watch. >> this is another crisis, another crisis he won't take responsibility for. to give a climate arsonist four more years in the white house, why would anyone be surprised if we have more america blaze? if you have a climate denier four more years in the white house why anyone be surprised when more of america is under water, hurricanes don't swerve to avoid red states or blue states. wildfires don't skip towns that voted a certain way. the impacts of climate change don't pick and choose. steve: and you have commented on climate change, mr. president, but you know, just the optics of him finally leaving his house to go out and make a public statement, in the last week, i haven't counted your events but its been a lot. joe biden has only done a couple and i have heard some democrats criticize biden and the campaign in saying it looks like trump is out diabetes working us. is that your strategy right now, at this stage of the game, before the debates to just get out there and get everywhere while joe biden picks and chooses? president trump: well today we're doing the big event in a little while with israel, and that was something that was really special, but you look at biden. he's reading notes and he's reading teleprompters all the time and he doesn't read them well and during interviews he's doing interviews and i saw it two or three weeks ago i said i think he's reading a teleprompter and they are asking him a question and i watched and then when this guy gets asked about that he makes a fool out of himself and he can't answer the question because he knows it's true. steve: it was a yes or no question it would have been easy to answer. president trump: no i've never seen anything like it. nobody has. the man is shot let's face it. we can't have a man whose shot because you know whose not shot? putin, president xi, kim jong-un , they're not shot. they are world class chess players this guy is shot, everyone knows it and we can't lead an economy. look at our economy. we have a record stock market, another good day today. we have a record stock market, we have a record everything. we're back to where we were. the 401 (k)s, they'll crash with this guy. i mean he wants to raise interest rate, he wants to raise them very high, $4 trillion worth of interest rates, you lose every business you'll close down every business, you'll lose your jobs, people are going to be paying so much in taxes, he wants to raise taxes. he wants to see higher interest rates, he wants to see taxes where he's going to, he wants $4 trillion in tax increases, and you can't do that, steve, and brian and ainsley. you can't do tax he'll destroy this thing. we're going to have a great new year. now we're going to have a big number come out that's third quarter. it's going to be a very very extraordinary number it's going to be a record set erin all respects and maybe i'm wrong and i'll be very bad that i'm saying this but i know that's what with i do. you can have an incredible number coming out just before the election literally two days before the election, and i'd rest my hat on that. watch how good it's going to be and next year we're going to have a great year but if somebody comes in and raises taxes and lets interest rates go up to a much higher level, that be a disaster for this country. you know, we also borrow money. this was very bad because it took 3 trillion, maybe 4 trillion to settle the problem and i do believe we are rounding the turn, including without the vaccine, i think we're round ing the turn, with the vaccine it's going to be great, but to get this horrible curse off our back, we had to spend trillions of dollars and we've kept it going really well and we could use additional stimulus but nancy pelosi won't approve it, because she thinks it's bad for me and the election well, i think we're doing very well. i think it's bad for her not to approve it because everyone knows she's the one not approving it, but joe isn't equipped to be president. he's shot. ainsley: so we have less than two months until the election, and a lot of people are really excited to watch what's going to p ha in two weeks and that is the first debate. it's actually two weeks from today. it's in two tuesdays. how do you prepare for the debate, have you started your preparation? do you just memorize his voting record or do you do these mock debates and get people on your staff to stand behind the podium and act like joe biden? what do you do? president trump: well i sort of prepare every day by just doing what i'm doing. i was in california yesterday. i went to arizona, which is doing great by the way, the state is booming, and done a really good job with the virus too. it's down to very low. excellent governor, excellent in texas. i've been to texas over the last few days, i've been to louisiana , florida, i mean, i've been all over the place and i watch this guy sitting home and i say maybe i'm doing it wrong. do you know what maybe i'm doing it wrong, but he's got the press on his side. why i have no idea. somebody will have to explain you have a stock market crash if you got in. i tell you what we have a head wind as good as our stock market and that's good for people because everybody owns the stock s but as good as it is we have a head wind and that is if he ever got in the market will crash and that's a headwind the market would even be higher but we're setting new records and the stock market which is good for everybody. people are happy. we got this plague sent to us by china, courtesy of china which is a disgrace because they could have stopped it and they stopped it from going into china, but they didn't stop it to europe and to us and to the rest of the world and they should be ashamed of themselves. brian: on the debate, you have the experience of working with chris wallace's moderator you just did an hour with in had on fox news sunday and you have the experience of competing for the presidency against hillary clinton, right? first, set the scene. you know the style of chris wall ace, and now you're able to study what joe biden has been doing for 47 years. what's going to be the greatest challenge here? president trump: well i don't know which biden is going to show up because i watched him during the debates where they had 20 people on the stage and before they started calling it out, and i watched him, and he was a disaster. you don't get worse, he was grossly incompetent and then i watched him against bernie and he was okay. he wasn't winston churchill i can tell you that but he was fine. i said it was like an even debate, and so i said what did he do, so what happened to him all of a sudden because he was okay, and bernie was okay. it's an extraordinarily boring debate but he got through it and i said what's the difference between now and some of those classic moments in the other debates, and something was strange, in my opinion. i won't say what but a lot of people think that something happened and you can't do that kind of stuff. steve: well mr. president you have suggested that joe biden should take a drug test. president trump: i do. i would take one too. yeah, i would say he should take a drug test. steve: do you think he's taking some sort of drugs to pep him up president trump: i do. he's taking something. he's taking something or gives him some clarity or whatever. take a look at him -- steve: maybe it's a lot of coffee. president trump: yeah, maybe 15 cups of coffee. i tell you what i've seen him in the debate with the other people including kamala harris and nobody treated him worse than ka mala. he picked kamala and nobody called him worse, called him a racist and then he says i'm going to pick kamala and she has her own problems she went from 15 down to nothing she dropped out before they got to iowa so she, i think she's not a good choice and compared to mike pence whose been a great vice president, he's been a great vice president, and you guys know that very well, but no, i don't know. it's very strange. i think yeah, he should take a drug test. ainsley: so let's talk about the joe rogan, who has the biggest podcast in the country, and tim kennedy on our show a lot army ranger, he was a guest on the show and they were talking about another debate adding another debate and he tweets this out, tim does. on my podcast with joe rogan, he offered to moderate a debate between joe biden and the real donald trump, and it be four hours, with no live audience, just the two candidate, cameras and their vision of how to move this country forward. then he asks, who wants this? debate and election 2020 then you responded, i do. so, you've accepted that. joe biden no word on whether or not he be interested in doing that joe rogan debate. president trump: joe is lost. joe is lost. we can't have a president that's mentally lost. ainsley: you mean joe biden? i thought you meant joe rogan at first. joe biden. president trump: i'm talking about joe biden, yeah. i can take the gloves off because they put an ad on in the military where i'm standing over a grave and made up a sentence that i said and i never said it and i have 25 people that were there that said he never said that, and they made it up and then they made it, you know this phony atlantic magazine which is a radical left obama-friend magazine and they made up this horrible quote and nobody's been better to the military than me. i rebuilt the military. they are the greatest people. they had me saying a horrible thing over a grave. a grave that's been there for many many years, and i was with other people, and they know it's a phony story and yet they admitted it. they know it's a total tony story called disinformation. you make up a lie. they make up lies. they made up another one about social security that i'm against social security and i'm the one that saved it. they used to do the same thing last time. they said i'm going to destroy social security. i kept it. i haven't touched it. but they made it up the last time, so they'll make up a lie and go with it so these are vicious people, so it gives me the right to take the gloves off and hit joe because joe is easy to hit. but i would do it. i would do that, with joe rogan. i like joe rogan. i would do it with joe rogan but i think sleepy joe won't. b mr. president let's go back to the military for a second general mattis evidently has been critical of you as a leader in the bob woodward book which you said is boring, but is it true, you've taken strong actions against baghdadi and sou lemani, and isn't it true that after assad gassed children for the second time it was you that wanted to take him out and general mattis talked you out of it and if it is true do you regret not taking him out because he is a mass murderer? president trump: i would have rather taken him out. i had him all set. mattis didn't want to do it. mattis was a highly overrated general and i i let him go. he worked for obama and he got fired for obama also and i thought that was maybe just a fluke, maybe they had different views and he wanted the job very badly. i gave him the job. i didn't like in, i fired him and he was a terrible, to me, he was a terrible general and a bad leader and he wasn't doing the job with isis. he was not doing the job, in syria or iraq with respect to isis. i got rid of isis after he was gone. i did a great job and 100% of the caliphate got rid of them took out soulemani, took out the baghdadi founded isis he was trying to build it again after i wiped it out, and i said we have to fire him. he killed many many people. and soulemani likewise, soulemani was the biggest of them all. brian: do you regret not taking out assad, and was it because of russia being allied with them is why you didn't do it and do you regret not doing it? president trump: no i don't regret that. i could have lived either way with that. i considered him certainly not a good person, but i had a shot to take him out if i wanted and mattis was against it. mattis was against most of that stuff. he'd keep you in military but he didn't know how to win. he would keep you in military but he had no concept as to win. we've had tremendous progress since then if you look at what we've done with terrorists and many other terrorists also by the way that you don't know but with terrorists with all and with by the way rebuilding the military, we've completely rebuilt the military, $2.5 trillion, all made in the usa. our soldiers are now taken care of. our vet, you look at what we've done at the va, our vets are, they gave a 91% approval rating the other day, 91% has never been anywhere close to that high , when you got all sorts of things approved including accountability and including choice. obama had something approved it was so pathetic it didn't work. a weak form of choice. we had a very powerful form of choice, and our military has been great. they loved me and i love them but mattis was not a good leader he didn't know how to lead. he didn't have a concept. brian: mr. president, he is a great american, and he did give a lot to the country, you know that but you guys -- president trump: well i know him differently. see i know him as a person and i just didn't think he did a good job. i mean, i don't say he's a good american or a bad american. i just say he didn't do a good job i let him go, i told him give me a letter and i've got to find somebody else and when we've put together a team, that's when it happened, and we wiped out 100% of the isis caliphate and he wasn't doing his job. steve: okay, mr. president, you mentioned soulemani a couple of times you did take him out. on twitter you went on twitter an you said according to press courts iran may be planning an assassination or other attack against the united states in retaliation for killing terrorist leader soulemani. there are reports of a plot or perhaps plots to assassinate a u.s. ambassador or more than that. can you, you know, i know you know things that you don't want to talk about because they are classified. they are big secrets, but clearly the news about the potential assassination of a u.s. ambassador is out there. what else can you tell us about this plot? president trump: well, let me tell you before the plot, iran is doing unbelievably badly. when i was, when i first came into office they were, there were 18 sites of confliction they were in charge of all of them. they had $150 billion that was stupidly given by obama, i'll say obama as opposed to biden because he probably, who knows if he had anything to do. nobody has made worse decisions than joe biden, especially with foreign affair, so they were literally a power. now they're not a power. that doesn't mean they can't do little things but now they're not a power, they have no money, their gdp dropped 27%, 27% in a short period of time, and if i win, they'll be unhappy but they'll make a deal in the first month and they'll make a very good deal for us in the first month. obama made a horrible deal, israel would have been gone, israel would have been wiped off the face of the earth. obama made a terrible deal. i say obama-biden but let's say obama. he made a terrible deal, gave him $150 billion, gave him 1.8 billion in cash, brought over by plane loads of cash. 1.8 and it was a short-term deal it was just a short-term deal. it wasn't even a deal and we can never let them have a nuclear weapon because they are crazy. steve: mr. president, the plot -- president trump: as far as the lot i said it you didn't read the rest of the social media statement, but i said it. i said it very strongly. they'll pay a thousand times if they do anything to anybody and i might be in that category, but they'll be in that category too, and we're all set and if they do anything to anybody they will be hit a thousand times harder than they hit us. ainsley: so mr. president let's talk about you've mentioned a few times but we'd love to know more about this the signing ceremony at the white house today. what a historic moment bringing three of the largest religions in the world together for a peace deal, the abraham accord, named after the patriarch of all three of the biggest religions, muslim, islam and christianity and i know hundreds of people will be there, we've interviewed people that will be there to watch this historic moment and then you also said this is just the beginning. there will be future deals. what do you mean by that? president trump: well, we have a lot of countries that want to come in, so for years and years, these clowns that like to criticize me, well we disagree, we disagree, they never got anything, they never got anything done, they've been fighting for peace in the middle east and then when i came in i was told it was an impossible thing you could never get it donald we went around the other way instead of dealing with the palestinians we took the money away we used to give them 750 million and they treat us badly and i said why do they treat us badly and nobody ever did this. i took it away. they are going to make a deal, you watch but we started dealing with other people and everyone said this couldn't happen and we made a deal with the uae led by a man, mohammed whose a great leader, a great warrior and we made a deal with uae and then bahrain came in and we have many others going to be coming in over a short period of time, and the palestinians will ultimately come in too and you're going to have peace in the middle east without being stupid and shooting everybody, and killing everybody, and having blood all over the sand. so you'll have peace and we're getting tremendous, i must tell you tom friedman wrote a great piece in the new york times, it was a 12 on a scale of 10. new york times, of all i mean i must tell you i respected them for doing it because i didn't think they had it in their genes to be able to write good about me but they said that it's an unbelievable deal and a very important deal so we have two countries. we have many others that we're negotiating with right now and the palestinians will be brought in, because all of their supporters all of the people that give them lots of money are coming into the deal, so otherwise they will be left out in the cold. brian: mr. president the reason why is because there is no flip side to this. what you did is reestablish relations with israel, unlike the previous administration where they seem fractured and then you broke off relations with iran who are terrorist nation, and then the other nation said i see iran as a threat to and israel is not a threat. after they built some quiet trust, you asked them to come forward, and they have. president trump: that's right. brian: there's no flip side to this and that's why the new york times denies it. now are we at the point where you're willing to sell the same weapons to these other countries that you sell to israel? president trump: well, they are very wealthy countries for the most part. some are extraordinarily like uae and they would like to buy some fighter jets and i personally would have no problem with it. some people do, they say well maybe they go to war. we have, you know, selling our stuff is good for our country, in one way. brian: israel gets upset. president trump: you worry about military equipment you sell it today and it's obsolete tomorrow all of a sudden you'll say we have a new and better plane. no, i know the leader very well, mohammed. i with have no problem in selling him the f-35. i would have absolutely no problem. i view it as an asset not a liability. plus, it's tremendous jobs at home you're talking about a large number of planes. reasonably large number of plane s not the biggest. we're buying them by the hundreds. you know, we've stocked up our arsenal like nobody thought it was possible. when i took over, our military was so depleted, it was an embarrassment. we had 40-year-old planes. we had 50-year-old planes you know the story the grandfather flew it, the son flew it and the grandson flew it. the same exact plane. no, we have military now. they didn't spend money on the military. they gave up their money. they spent it on everything but the military. obama doesn't like the military and i can tell you biden doesn't like it. they fight me every time it's the hardest thing. to get things approved for the military they want all sorts of other things approved which does our country for the most part no good. steve: mr. president, john roberts who stands on your front lawn every day, he's got our phone number just like you do and he just texted, can you ask the president if his middle east strategy is to cut deals with arab countries to put pressure on the palestinians to come to the table? " in other words surround the palestinians with peace deals so they are the only ones not doing it. if john roberts was sitting right here he would have asked you that. president trump: well he's very good he's done a great job but he's got what it takes and yes you could say that certainly a piece of it. the ultimate piece is it's good for us to have. it's good for israel but certainly that's a piece of it. the palestinians are very difficult to deal with and we paid them a tremendous amount of money for many decades. we paid them money it was almost like hostage-type money. it was bribe money and it was foolish, and i took it away. a year and a half ago i said why are we paying when they say terrible things about it "death to america" and then we pay them $750 million, yes, it's a lot of money. we pay them all this money and they speak badly about us. i said i'm going to end the money let them know we're not paying it anymore. we didn't pay it anymore, but other countries would pay. other very rich countries would pay, but we don't pay it anymore let me tell you when we start getting the rest of the countries in, they will come to the table 100%. they are getting to a point where they want to make a deal. they won't say that outwardly. they want to make a deal and i'll tell you who else wants to make a deal, iran wants to make a deal. if i win they are hoping that biden gets in, and china is hoping that biden gets in. russia, probably. they want biden because look, nobody has been tougher to russia than me, nobody, with the pipeline, with our big military, we've become the number one energy country in the world, we're more than, totally energy-independent now. what i've done with russia and remember, obama gave them pillow s and i gave them hank busters there's a big difference with ukraine so russia would like, i think russia would like it too but here is the thing. they want to wait until after this election, because there's nobody in the world that china would rather negotiate than sleepy joe. i've taken in billions of dollars. take a look at what obama did with china. they gave our country away. they were giving our country away. if they got in, if this crew got in, the same basic crew, but they've gone far left much further left than they ever were that's why it's the most important election that we've ever had. if they ever got in, china would own the usa. china would own them. the other thing is iran. iran really wants, maybe as much as china, but they have to give it a shot. you know, john kerry has been telling them oh, wait until after the election because maybe you'll deal with biden instead of trump. well, there's no way they are ever going to have a nuclear weapon and biden would probably give them that right and they're ready to make a deal and doing so badly with their gdp went so far down nobody has ever seen anything like it. i think it's a record, and when i took over, that was a powerful , wealthy nation. now, because of all of the sanctions and everything else, they are dying to make a deal but they want to see what happens in the election. i say you should wait. why don't you wait and see what happens in the election. we'll have a deal with iran within one month and a really good deal for the united states, because they have no because. but if biden got in, they'll all , they will just take our guts out. steve: yup. mr. president, i think you've broke a lot of news this morning thank you very much for starting your day with fox & friends. ainsley: thank you. president trump: okay

trump joining us for a wide ranging interview just moments ago. griff jenkins is live in washington with the highlights. griff: yeah you guys this is quite the task if with edo it every week because the president made a lot of news there starting with the mid-east peace signing he has at the white house the fact he says if he's re-elected within one month iran would do a deal let alone the mention of bringing the palestinians to the table, i'm sure we'll have more in the next few hours, but really, when you, steve, pressed president trump on bob woodward and why he sat down, to talk for 18 conversations that was very fascinating, here is what the president said, addressing it whether he had regret, listen president trump: last time i didn't talk to him, and it was a bad book. this time, i talked well i wanted to see if it could be done. the guys a negative, the guys a democrat works with the washington post. that tells you right there, which is truly i call it it's the i guess you could say it's the flunkie for amazon. griff: the president also addressing two big stories of the day of course hurricane sally bearing down on the gulf coast and he praised all of the first responders and on law and order in that tragic story of the la sheriff's deputies being shot here is what he had to say. president trump: we have to get much tougher. we're getting weak and soft, their policies are horrible they've taken respect away from police officers, they've degrad ed them. you look at new york they fired a tremendous number of police and crime is through the roof but they fired them. i can't imagine anybody endorsing biden with his views. i mean, his views are death. griff: speaking of biden we got a bit of a preview for the upcoming first debate on september 29. the president weighing in on how he's preparing and what he expects, here is what he said. president trump: i don't know which biden is going to show up because i watched him during the debates where they had 20 people on the stage and before they started calling it out, and i watched him and he was a disaster. you don't get worse. he was grossly in competent and then i watched him against bernie he was okay, he wasn't winston churchill but he was okay. griff: so, a quite wide ranging interview you guys did, and perhaps, he made some news too, brian when you asked him about whether or not he regretted taking out assad, perhaps we'll get more later meanwhile, guys? good job. brian: not taking out assad. thank, griff great job great recap seven minutes before the top of the hour let's bring in molly hemmingway senior editor for the federalist. molly clearly the president has had a chance to go through the woodward book which was front and center over the weekend and says it's kind of boring do you believe him? reporter: well, i was expecting there be many more news drops coming out of that book, throughout last week and into this week, and there really haven't been. they just had that first story saying that donald trump knew how bad the pandemic was, but attempted to calm people by being optimistic and that seems thus far all its been, so maybe he's right. steve: so molly what was your headline out of this 47 minute chat with the president? reporter: well it was very substantive to talk about various domestic and foreign policy achievements i really thought that the discussion of his approach to foreign policy was the most interesting, in part because if biden were to be elected it would really dramatically take things back to the way they were not just during the obama presidency but for several presidencies previous to that president trump was emphasizing that under him, you get peace deals and an end to ridiculous wars, that when people behave against us, they will be met with force, much more than they came with, saying if i ran even tried to do something they be met with 1,000 times the response, if they were to do such a thing but talking about how a lot of time, people think the military is just the right answer to everything, without thinking through how to get through a war, accomplish your objectives and then get people home. and so this is usually presidents when they are running for re-election they actually it's almost a cliche they start a war to rally around the flag. president trump might be the first person to instead have a breakout of peace in the middle east. ainsley: real quickly mollie, did you disagree with him on anything? >> well it was, he has his own way of talking about everything, but i do think it's important that people particularly with the change in campaign style, that we hear a lot from both president trump and former vice president biden, because of their inability to campaign and so i think the more that both candidates can be out there answering questions, telling us how they differ, be helpful. brian: right, not too sure about joe biden on drugs i couldn't see that, but we'll see what happens in the debate in a couple weeks, mollie sadly we have to run, mollie hemming way, more fox & friends in just a moment. from prom dresses... ...to soccer practices... ...and new adventures. you hope the more you give the less they'll miss. but even if your teen was vaccinated against meningitis in the past... they may be missing vaccination for meningitis b. let's help protect them together. because missing menb vaccination could mean missing out on a whole lot more. ask your doctor if your teen is missing meningitis b vaccination. >> thank you for joining us today. set your dvrs for 6:00 a.m. every morning and listen to brian's radio show. >> sandra: fox news alert now. hurricane sally closing in on the gulf coast at this hour. the slow moving storm is expected to make landfall by
