TRISH: TONIGHT, OUR COUNTRY
FACES SOME OF THE BIGGEST
INTERNATIONAL CHALLENGES IN
MODERN TIMES.
FROM A POTENTIAL MILITARY
CONFLICT WITH IRAN TO A TRADE
WAR, AND A FIGHT FOR OUR
ECONOMIC FUTURE WITH CHINA.
TO THREAT OF A COLD WAR, A COLD
WARLIKE CRISES IN VENEZUELA,
ANYTHING THAT WE'VE SEEN SINCE
THE CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS DAYS,
YET WE HAVE 23 DEMS, RUNNING FOR
THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES, THEY WILL
TELL YOU CLIMATE CHANGE IS THE
BIGGEST ISSUE CONFRONTING
AMERICA RIGHT NOW, ALONG WITH
DEBT-FREE COLLEGE AND TAX CUTS
FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS.
HELLO, EARTH TO DEMS.
MIDDLE CLASS GOT A MASSIVE TAX
CUT.
CONSIDERS TAX REVENUES WERE
HIGHEST IN THE HISTORY OF THE
COUNTRY.
THE POINT BEING, WHILE THEY ARE
OUT THERE SO FIXATED ON
EVERYTHING FROM IMPEACHMENT TO
OPEN BORDERS, WE ACTUALLY HAVE
REAL CHALLENGES IN FRONT OF US,
ONES OF SUBSTANCE, THAT REQUIRE
INTELLECT.
AND SOME CAPACITY TO UNDERSTAND
THE WORLD.
DONALD TRUMP WITH HIS ECONOMIC
AND FOREIGN POLICY, IS RIGHT NOW
LOOKING LIKE THE ONLY ADULT IN
THE ROOM.
STEVE BANNON, PRESIDENT'S FORMER
CHIEF STRATEGIST WITH WHOM I
SPOKE LIVE FROM PARIS LAST NIGH
NIGHT.
PUTTING IT QUITE ELOQUENTLY.
>> THEY HAVE SOME TERRIFIC YOUNG
CANDIDATES, NO ONE HAS BROKEN
OUT, I THINK ONE REASON, KAMALA
HARRIS, MAYOR PETE, BETO, ACROSS
THE BOARD THEY ARE RUNNING LIKE
THEY ARE RUNNING FORTION
THEY ARE RUNNING FOR SON
THEY ARE RUNNING FOR STUDENT
COUNCIL PRESIDENT, THEY ARE NOT
TALKING ABOUT IRAN, AND CHINA,
AND VENEZUELA, THIS IS A VERY
DANGEROUS WORLD THIS LIKE
1930s, WE'RE GOING THROUGH A
DARK VALLEY AGAINST VERY TOUGH
INDIVIDUALS, AND AS PRESIDENT
TRUMP CALLS THEM BAD -- HOMBRES.
TRISH: HE IS RIGHT, WE'RE NOT
LIVING ON AN ISLAND,
DEMOCRACIES, WE'RE LIVING IN
INCREASINGLY, VERY COMPLEX,
DIFFICULT GLOBAL WORLD.
IF WE'RE NOT CAREFUL, WE'LL HAVE
CHALLENGES.
WE NEVER DREAMED WE WOULD HAVE.
THERE IS A LOT OF RESPONSIBILITY
THAT GOES WITH BEING THE MOST
POWERFUL, MOST PROSPEROUS NATION
IN THE WORLD, WE CANNOT AFFORD
TO IGNORE THAT.
JOINING ME NOW, FORMER TRUMP
2016 CAMPAIGN MANAGER, COREY
LEWANDOWSKI.
GOOD TO SEE YOU, I THOUGHT HE
SAID IT PERFECTLY, WE TO HAVE
PROBLEM IN WORLD.
U.S. IS TRYING TO LEAD THEIR WAY
THROUGH, YET THE DEMOCRATS ARE
TALKING ABOUT FREE COLLEGE,
WHERE ARE THEIR PRIORITIES?
>> THEIR PRIORITIES TO LIVE
STREAM HAIR CUTS AND DENTAL
WORK.
IF YOU THINK THAT IS WHAT UNITED
STATES WANTS AS A LEADER,
SOMEONE WHO WILL NEGOTQULAIT
WITH
NETH
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-N
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-,
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-Y
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-U
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-A
NEGOTIATE WITHXI, AND KIM JONG-E
MISTAKEN.
WHAT OTHER WORLD LEADERS RESPECT
AND THIS POT PRESIDENT DELIVERS
IS -- WHAT THIS PRESIDENT
DELIVERED IT TOUGHNESS.
HE IS SO FORWARD FACING THEY
KNOW THIS IS A DIFFERENT
ADMINISTRATION FROM PREVIOUS ONE
THAT WAS WALKED ALL OVER.
IF YOU THINK THESE DEMOCRATS VA
HAVE NOT EVEN BEGUN TO ADDRESS
THE PROBLEMS WE HAVE IN THE
WORLD, YOU ARE CORRECT.
NOT ONE HAS A PLAN TO
DENUCLEARIZE NORTH KOREA
PENINSULA AND RENEGOTIATE WITH
INDIA AND VIETNAM, THEY HAVE NO
PLAN FORWARD, FACING NOTHING TO
DO WITH IRAN, NOTHING TO DO WITH
VENEZUELA AND THE MADURO REGIME.
THE DEMOCRATS HAVE NO PLAN FOR
THE GLOBAL MARKETPLACE.
THAT IS WHY THEY WON'T BE
SUCCESSFUL.
TRISH: I AGREE.
BY THE WAY STEVE BANNON GAVE
THEM A TIP.
THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY APPEAR MORE
PRESIDENTIAL, HE SAID, THEY HAVE
INTERESTING GOOD PROMISING
POLITICAL STARS.
AND YOU KNOW.
YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH THEM,
RIGHT, THERE IS A GROUP OF
PEOPLE WITH WHOM THEY MIGHT
RESONATE, BUT THE PROBLEM IS
THEY ARE STILL STUCK ON THINGS
OF NO MAJOR CONSEQUENCE ON THE
WORLD STAGE.
THEY DON'T SEEM PRESIDENTIAL,
WHY WOULD YOU VOTE FOR SOMEONE
WHO DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE
COMPLEXITIES OF THINGS LIKE
TRADE?
>> CAN YOU IMAGINE FOR ONE
SECOND THAT MAYOR PETE IS
PRESIDENT PETE, AND HE HAS TO
RENEGOTIATE WITH CHINA WITH
THEIR HARD LEADERS, WHO HAVE A
THOUSAND YEAR VISION ON WHAT
THEY WANT TO DO, WE HAVE A YOUNG
GUY WHO WILL TRY TO NEGOTIATE,
THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
WORLD LEADERS WILL NOT RESPECT
HIM, WHAT THIS PRESIDENT HAS
DONE WITH OUR ADVERSARIES AND
FRIENDS LOOK AT RELATIONSHIP TWO
McCONAND -- MACRON AND XI, AND
KIM JONG-UN.
YOU KNOW, HE WAS HIGHLY
CRITICIZED FOR TRYING TO
DENUCLEARIZE THE KOREAN
PENINSULA BY HAVING A MEETING,
BUT LOOK.
HE HAS PUT US IN A BETTER
POSITION, DEMOCRATS ARE NOT EVEN
TALKING ABOUT THAT.
THEY HAVE PRODUCED NO RESULTS
WITH VENEZUELA.
TRISH: YOU MEET SOMEONE AT FIRST
BASE IF YOU WANT TO GET THE BALL
ROLLING, I THINK ABOUT REAGAN,
AND GORBACHEV, AND ALL THAT WAS
ACCOMPLISHED THERE.
THERE ARE A LOT OF SIMILARITIES
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT THIS
PRESIDENT IS TRYING TO TAKE ON
AND SCOIRNED
ANDESCOIRNED
ANDE SOIRNED
ANDE SCORNED.
LET ME ASK YOU.
YOU POINT OUT, THAT YOU HAVE TO
TALKS TOUGH AND PRESENT A TOUGH
IMAGE.
BUT WE DON'T'
BUT WE DON'T WANT TO END UP IN
WAR WITH EVERYONE.
THIS PRESIDENT HAS BEEN CLEAR
OVER AND OVER, HE IS NOT LOOKING
FOR PROBLEMS.
BUT HE HAS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES
THAT ARE ISSUES IN THE WORLD.
IN PART BECAUSE YOU HAD 8 YEARS
OF LOUSY GEOPOLITICAL PLANNING.
HOW DO WE STRADDLE THIS LINE,
MAKING SURE WE HAVE POWER WE
NEED THAT PEOPLE LISTEN UP AND
PAY ATTENTION, YET NOT WIND UP
GETTING OURSELVES INVOLVED IN
THINGS WE DON'T WANT TO BE
INVOLVED IN.
>> REMINDS ME OF WHAT RONALD
REAGAN SAID, PEACE THROUGH
STRENGTH, THIS PRESIDENT HAS
REENGAGED OUR U.S. MILITARY
BRINGING IT BACK TO A LEVEL THAT
IS COME
IS IOME
IS ISME
IS IS -- WITH GREATEST SUPER
POWER IN THE WORLD, WHICH WAS
US.
OUR ADVERSARIES KNOW, ASK
BA'ASYIR AL-ASSAD WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU USE CHEMICAL WEAPONS
AGAIN INNOCENT WOMEN AND
CHILDREN.
IT PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH,
SHOWING WE HAVE MIGHTIEST FORCE
IN THE WORLD, WE DON'T WANT TO
USE IT, THIS PRESIDENT HAS BEEN
CLEARED, HE DOES NOT WANT TO BE
IN A MILITARY CONFLICT WITH
IRAN.
WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE YOUR
TROOPS HOME FROM IRAQ AND
AFGHANISTAN.
HE DOES NOT' MILITARY
INTERVENTION IN VENEZUELA, HE IS
LOOKING FOR THE DIPLOMATIC
SOLUTIONS, BUT THOSE COUNTRIES
KNOW, IF PUSH COMES TO SHOVE, IF
HE NEEDS TO HE WILL USE THE
GREATEST MILITARY IN THE WORLD
TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEMS.
TRISH: I THINK THAT IS TRUE.
LET ME GET YOUR REACTION TO THI
THIS.
DEMOCRAT FUMING HAVE YOU FORMER
WHITE HOUSE COUNCIL DON
McGAHN, SNUBBING THE SUBPOENA,
AND CHAIRMAN JERRY NADLER,
COMING APART AT THE SEAM.
YOUR REACTION.
>> LET ME BE CLEAR, THIS
COMMITTEE WILL HEAR
MR. McGAHN'S TESTIMONY EVEN IF
WE HAVE TO GO TO COURT TO SECURE
IT.
WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE PRESIDENT,
TO PREVENT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
FROM HEARING FROM THIS WITNESS.
WE WILL HOLE
WE HILL HOLE
WE HOLL HOLE
WE HOLD HOLE
WE HOLD TOLE
WE HOLD THIE
WE HOLD THIS PRESIDENT
ACCOUNTABLE, ONE WAY OR THE
OTHER.
TRISH: WOW, ANOTHER POLITICAL
STUNT THERE?
>> COMPLETE POLITICAL THEATER,Y
KNOW THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS
ABSOLUTE RIGHT AND LEGAL
AUTHORITY TO ECONOMYERT -- AND
THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FALL
UNDER THE ABILITY TO TESTIFY IN
FRONT OF CONGRESS THAT IS CLEAR.
EVERY ADMINISTRATION HAD THE
OPPORTUNITY TO TO THAT, THIS TO
DIFFERENT, AND DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE MADE A RULING THAT DON
McGAHN NOT TESTIFY, UNTIL A
FEDERAL COURT ORDER COMES DOWN,
MY GUESS, THIS COULD GO TO
SUPREME COURT, I DON'T THINK YOU
WILL SEE DON McGAHN OR ANY
OTHER MEMBERS OF TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION BEFORE
CONGRESSMAN NADLER'S COMMITTEE
