eyebrows yesterday with the president s answer to this question. watch this. my desire to increase the u.s. manufacturing and jobs in america is not about china. i m not concerned about china. martha: can that, we break in kayleigh mcenany , co host of outnumbered and marc thiessen is with us, fox news contributor and juan williams, senior political analyst for fox news. we start with kayleigh mcenany . great to have you with us. from the press perspective, one thing that got attention about this particular answer is the president had a card in his hand with a picture of the reporter and the question essentially, more or less, that she was going to ask and a list with all of the numbers. we ve gone so far from this sort of open back and forth with the president. is this normal, to lay these questions out this way? not that level of detail. look, i had a reporter from a wire service and good reporter that was being diligent trying to get information for the american pe
We re competing on this and we plan to win where this is concerned. what did you think about that answer? it is about china. that s why republicans supported the chips act. we won t normally support republicans 54 billion to support a domestic industry from the federal government from the taxpayers. it s because national security trumps free market economics. we have a situation where taiwan has 90% of the chips. if there s a war with china and taiwan that we might get involved in, it could cripple our economy. that s why we re throwing away our free market principals to support industrial policy to create a domestic chips industry. the idea we re not doing it because of china, that s exactly why we re doing it. it s the only reason why we re doing it. martha: juan, here s the nominee preference among democratic voters. the thing that caught people s
i think president trump is a good negotiator and excellent salesman. he will make the point that we re going to come back at this again. tom price will be the one to sell it. he s known as someone that really believes that, you know, believeses in free market principals, healthcare. my brother is a doctor. i know about this. so many rules and regulations over the hospitals. it infects everything from pricing to procedure. just can t put the genie back in a bottle in 100 days. it ain t going to happen. it s going to be years of work. if they do this, tax return, tax reform, watch the market go. i think it s a good shot. neil: we shall see. thank you, buddy. charlie gasparino. markets were down today. drug stocks weren t helping. they re feeling the pressure there. meanwhile, today was a day without a woman. at first when i heard that, i was thinking that s my high school dating way. but this is something bigger.
Take my word for it. the freedom caucus side would nancy pelosi to vote against the three week funding bill for the department of homeland security, vote would nancy pelosi on procedure for the trade authority. many republicans believe it s important free market principals and they undermined that. hang on one second. i want to ask if there s something we can agree on. can you agree on this can i do one leap. quickly. did you sign the discharge petition yesterday? that s an example of giving the floor over to nancy pelosi. those of us who voted against that rule,i iu m a huge free tre supporter i want to ask you this if
How else would you describe it? it is beyond the pale that people think it is acceptable. i just don t understand why you can t make your point. you can make your point in a very tough, critical way without crossing these lines. but he just tells you why there are certain folks in the republican party have no grasp of reality in terms of why they lose elections. this is why they lose elections. listen, both parties are alienating voters and i know this is not, these is not ted cruz s words. this is not his father. he s not a public figure, an elected official. whatever role this is, amy holmes, i want to ask you, does this hurt the tea party? i think that it serves to hurt those who advocate for conservative and free market principals when it gets into the free-market attacks. i agree with chris on that basis. it turns off the voters and drives down voter turnout during elections when the attacks get
