Our shoppers and Shopping Centers. If you look at Shopping Centers and jobs in stores its been very, very tough for them. They have had a hard time closing at numbers and records that have never been seen before. So we have to stop that. The online predatory practices. Since the beginning of the year, we have already created over 50,000 brandnew manufacturing jobs. And were just getting started. We will lift our citizens from welfare to work. We will turn boarded up communities into new outposts of american commerce. And we will once again rediscover our heritage as a manufacturing nation. We used to be a manufacturing nation. Not so much anymore but i will tell you, you look at michigan, you look at some states that have really moved, you know, in pennsylvania, two weeks ago they opened a mine the first mine that was opened in decades. Industry and much of that comes at the border. George washington encouraged americans to produce their own goods so that our young nation could become
Of the trump campaign. Just to state the obvious that we all know, the president shoots from the hip. Im not sure there was a ton of fore thought into what he said about sessions. I think he was honest and blunt about his feelings at that moment in time. They are feelings that he has had on and off for some time now. The Russian Investigation as we all know kind of wont go away as a story line partly because theres an open investigation but also because the president is preoccupied with it and he brings it up all the time, in private conversations and apparently in public ones. I think theres a real concern in terms of the comments hes made obviously because they also seem to indicate that, you know, first he wants loyalty from comey, now he wants loyalty or allegiance from Attorney General, like hes wanting to run this the way he runs his business, which is not the way the Government Works and certainly not the way the Justice Department works, which is an independent institution. The
Back. Overnight weve seen the president evolve his thinking to now advocate for the Death Penalty and, regardless, both of these statements are somewhat inappropriate and unprecedented just in terms of what a president traditionally would say, which is to restrain from offering this sort of commentary. It is in keep with the kind of public persona that donald trump has cultivated over many, many years in public life of trying to show himself to be strong and tough and have this steely resolve. But hes not a commentator anymore. Hes the president of the United States. So theres a different standard, and his words carry a different weight. Theres an obliviousness to the fact that he sits atop the federal government. A federal government whose Justice System he described yesterday as a Laughing Stock and a joke. Well, the comment to first it just shows his total lack of rigor in making any
pronouncements. This is someone who revels in his unpreparedness. Its an improvisational act. Theres
Beyond those who have been so outspoken to push back on that. Will we see other senators come out today and take a flake or corkerlike position on that . Well find out. But right now i doubt it. A standing ovation. I want to bring my panel in. Robert costa, National Political reporter for the Washington Post and bret stephens, an oped columnist for the New York Times and megan murphy, the editor of Bloomberg Business week. Brett, i want to start with you. One trump critic said the ice is beginning to crack. What were seeing with bob corker, with jeff flake, youre going to see more republicans follow suit. Do you think thats the case . Follow suit in denouncing the president . Yes. Or in renouncing their political ambitions. Fair point. This is the key thing. Theres a law in economics, greshams law, bad money drives out good. In a sense what we have is bad republican politicians driving out good ones who are just removing themselves literally

Coverage. Adam is then fox extreme Weather Center. We begin with Steve Harrigan who is in san juan, puerto rico, right now. We speak of the rain is heavier than it has been all morning and thats creating Flash Flooding with some River Gates Being opened up. The winds have gusted here on the back end of this storm to over 100 Miles Per Hour. The worst of the wins came at about 9 00 in the morning with sustained gusts of more than 104 to 5 Miles Per Hour. Those were winds enough to tear the sides of some buildings. We just saw bits and pieces of buildings fly through the air and tops of trees have also snapped off. This island now according to the governor is almost 90 without electric power. It may be 100 soon, that means people in this storm for writing it out around their own. No electric power, no Emergency Rescue services, if they have a portable radio, thats what theyre hearing. Otherwise theyre hearing the
balconies torn off. Its still too hard for the First Responders to go out a
