and make up stories as storytellers. They say, "Oh, Trump wants to destroy Social Security." It's like, I have nothing to even think about with Social Security. Now, if you have an illegal immigrant on Social Security, I think everybody wants to make sure that doesn't happen. So it doesn't make, you know, I have to make sure there's as little fraud as possible. But, you know, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, people don't have to worry. But they make up stories, they're liars. They lie so badly and they lie so much.

All right, we're down to economists Art Laffer joins us now and sir, it's good to have you back on. Thank you very much Rob. There's so much uncertainty right now that there's a lot of nerves over this and I look at this and I feel like I'm watching the president take a really big political risk to do I think some of the things that really need to happen in this country for the betterment of our general economy. Is that how you see it? Well that's very nice that you feel that way in a way. The way I see it really very seriously is as you probably know I'm a big fan of Donald Trump's. You know he has had all of this practical experience. He's run his own companies very successfully but wealthy man. He ran the country in the first term and as I've said in economics now that I think is single best first term president the U.S. has ever had. If you look at him from the standpoint of education he's as well educated as any president. I mean literally if you look at presidents he's really very well educated. And if you look at him as a negotiator he's a great negotiator. He's all of these skills together. I can't think of any individual that I think would be better suited to be president of the United States the policy maker in place than Donald Trump today. Now does that mean I'm not worried about the economy. Of course it doesn't mean that. But I think he is as adept and as good at negotiating all of these things as anyone I've ever seen. And frankly I feel very comfortable with him as president. I wish the market were up 20 points not down. I do. But you know I don't know what to say about that. Yeah. Well let's just let's just talk about that because there's a lot of people especially in this city that I live in that believe that this market has been overcooked for a very long time and everything's been very inflated and the market's been inflated. Our prices have been inflated. And I think a lot of people out there thought that this needed to cool down that everything kind of needed to cool down. I spoke to a guy today who's a brilliant guy he's a Trump voter and he kind of believes that the White House right now is just kind of forcing us to take the medicine that we've needed to take. They want to kind of cool everything down get the 10 year down get mortgage rates down and kind of calm everything down early on before it becomes a political liability near the midterms and then get inflation down and then set them set the economy off the right way. Do you think that's a possibility. Well it's a possibility but I don't think you're right at all in that Rob if I say cooling down the economy lowering it down getting at this down does not help anyone anywhere at any time. The faster the economy grows the lower inflation is if you have more goods and services available. The price of those goods and services are going to fall down. If you have a bumper crop and apples the price of apples will fall not rise. So the faster we grow the better off we are. I don't think there's anything to taping the economy down that makes any sense whatsoever. But what I do think is that Donald Trump is putting it through a very sensible good supply side economic policies. Government spending is a problem especially wasted fraudulent. I don't know what all the work additives they use to it. You know there's a lot of importance for government government is important but not this big of government isn't it. We need to trim it down a lot cut it down and we're going through the pain of that process. I don't think it's a pain. I don't think it's a pain getting rid of dud workers and people who are unproductive and people who squander the resources. I think those resources belong to me the taxpayer and I would much rather see me the pain giving it to people who wasted the pain I guess would be what we're seeing right now. You know the Dow's down what maybe 10 percent. I don't think this is what's caused the Dow to be down. My view I don't see why any of these policies that Trump is putting through right now would cause the Dow to drop. Maybe people are afraid of the tariffs. That may be true and that that could well be true but that's not cutting out waste abuse and fraud. It really is not and that I just don't see any downside to whatsoever. Tariffs people are scared and I understand why they're scared. You know the Great Depression was caused by the Smoot-Holly tariff which caused the crash in the market which caused the Great Depression which caused World War Two. Those are serious events but Donald Trump is very very well versed in the do's and don'ts and trade. He's a very smart guy. He's been dealing with this forever. He was head of a very large international company Trump International and you know he knows how bad these barriers could be. I believe and this is me if you want to know what he believes give him a call. But I believe he is trying to bring reciprocity so these guys reduce the barriers to trade against us. We maybe lower ours a little bit more and that creates a freer trade environment and world that will cause huge expansion. We'll see. We'll see. I can't think of anyone I have more trust in than Donald Trump. OK. All right. So this unease right now you think will be over soon is your estimation? I hope so. I'm really good at forecasting the past Rob. I really am good at that. I'm a little less through. But I think that's true and by the way don't be such a stranger ask me on your show more often. I love your show. Well I love having you on and we appreciate you coming on sir. You're one of my favorites. Thank you. Very good.

NFL, but those celebrations, eh, they sure lived. There are new concerns that the league could be cracking down on them. A USA Today reporter says that right after he talked to Raiders tight end Brock Bowers about his Trump touchdown dance, the team abruptly ended his post game availability. Joining us now, Brett Favre, NFL Hall of Fame quarterback, Brett. Fantastic to see you. I don't know how you follow Hulk Hogan, man, but you're going to have to figure it out, Brett. I can't believe the NFL players are doing the little dance. What's going on there? Uh, yeah, I think people have had enough and, uh, they're, you know, they're coming out of the woodworks right and left. And when I woke up election day and saw the, the landslide victory, it really put put where I think everyone's perspective is on this country, uh, right to the forefront. I mean, we, we were in desperate need of president Trump to take back over and get this country back where it needs to be. I mean, we were, we were definitely going in the wrong direction. And I think our youth, um, and I say youth NFL players, college players, high school players, um, see it. You know, when I was 22, 25, 30 years old, I never thought about politics. It was never an issue. There was never a, a focus on politics like it was this year. And I think people just saw it for what it was that we were in desperate need of help. And that, that helped us president Trump. Brad, don't you also think that some of this is almost an athlete's competitive spirit? Like when you're counted out, you're injured. No one thinks you can come back again and you, and you throw the perfect pass or you go for the perfect pattern and you catch the perfect ball. And again, no one thought you could do it, but you do it that, that is someone who played some college sports. Just to me, what I see that connection between the athlete and him, maybe that's overblown. Well, Laura, you're, you're right. Um, I don't think a lot of people gave president Trump a chance of winning. Um, I know I did. I was very hopeful that he would, that he would win, uh, like, like most of us, which you just didn't really know based on what's happened in the past. You really didn't know. And so again, when I woke up that morning and I'm sure a lot of people felt the same way, it was like, you have got to be kidding. Um, not only did he win, he just dominated and I, I just, I just think that, uh, we, you know, as I said, we were in desperate need of, do you think Brett, sorry to interrupt, but do you think the NFL should be cracking down on players doing the little Trump dance in the end zone? Because some believe they are. Well, I think back to back in the, just over the years, I mean, the icky shuffle. I don't know if you remember that, uh, if he would split the Cincinnati Bengals had the shuffle and I could go on and on. I don't remember anyone being fined or threatened for doing that or, or some of the other, the sack dance. So, uh, you name it. I don't remember that being an issue other than, Oh, look, that's sticky shuffle. That's pretty cool. Uh, so I, I find it hard to believe that the NFL would crack down, uh, on, on this Trump dance. I really do. Well, I would hope it looks like people are just having some fun and I think why not have a little fun, you know, like there's been all there's, you can take a knee, Colin Kaepernick took the knee and everyone had to support that or a lot of people did. And that was all celebrated, but you know, doing a little dance, somehow you cancel his post game availability, how threatening to us and that little dance, uh, some may say, but I think like with John Jones, that was a very just powerful moment with he and president Trump, the baddest man, arguably on the planet who came over and showed the respect, uh, to president Trump. I think is sense a lot about where we are in this country right now. Yeah. A fighter to a fighter Brett Farve will come back soon. Great to have you on.

Under Kamala, there's been a big hike in Medicare premiums. Social security benefits don't go far with Kamala's inflation slamming seniors. Now Kamala wants struggling seniors to pay more Social Security taxes, while she gives Medicare and Social Security to illegals. That will do Medicare. President Trump will make sure no one cuts Medicare or Social Security. Trump lowered Medicare premiums, and he'll end the tax on Social Security. I'm Donald J. Trump and I approve this message.

When we talk about bringing down prices and making life more affordable for people, what are one or two specific things you have in mind for that? I grew up a middle-class kid. Are they better off now than they were four years ago? I grew up a middle-class kid. When it comes to the economy, do you believe Americans are better off than they were four years ago? So I was raised as a middle-class kid. Yeah, that was an odd answer. Trump's team pointing out that Kamala Harris still hasn't answered that very simple question. The first thing I will do to make middle-class life dramatically more affordable is to end Kamala's war on American energy, terminate her Green News scam, and drill a baby drill. They stole your auto industry, and we're going to bring it back, and it's going to be at a level that it was in its height. Under my leadership, the United States will commit to the ambitious goal of slashing energy and electricity prices by half, at least half. Together we will deliver low taxes, low regulations, low energy costs, low interest rates, low inflation, so that everyone can afford groceries, a car, and a home. Very simple.

"Is New York's Donald Trump running for president?" He bought full-page ads in three East Coast newspapers today stating his views on foreign policy, and these ads will win him a following. In the ads he says, "There's nothing wrong with American foreign policy that little backbone won't cure." And he said, "We have no business spending ourselves broke in the Middle East, protecting ships that are not ours, and oil that we don't need." "Rumblings and the Trump camp point as far as the presidency." "Somebody has to help this country, and if they don't, the country and the world are in big trouble, because within a short period of time, as sure as we're sitting here, there's not going to be a country and there's not going to be a world." "I have no intention of running for president, and if it got so bad, I would never want to rule it out totally." "Together, we will determine the course of America, and the world, for many, many years to come." "For too long, a small group in our nation's capital has reaped the rewards of government, while the people have borne the cost." "That all changes, starting right here, and right now, because this moment is your moment, it belongs to you. The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer." "Trump leading in five of the six most important battleground states." "Eiden continues to trail Donald Trump." "Our latest pulling out of Iowa also shows former President Trump with a 30-point lead over his newest rival." "The Republican primary is over, Donald Trump basically has this nomination locked up." "Everyone is listening to you now, I will fight for you with every breath in my body, and I will never ever let you down. My fellow Americans, our movement is far from over, in fact, our fight has only just begun."

Well, our strategy is to continue playing on offense. President Trump continues to dominate Joe Biden in traditional battleground states such as Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan. We are seeing that across the board. Poll after poll shows him winning. So we're going on offense in these traditionally blue Democrat states such as Minnesota, such as Virginia, New York, New Jersey. These are states that are legitimately in play and President Trump is leading the charge by going into these long time Democrat communities, Democrat run cities that have been run into the ground by corrupt and disgusting Democrat politicians who have made empty promises and delivered nothing but death and destruction and crime and violence. And President Trump's message of optimism, of hope, of making these cities in our country wealthy and safe and prosperous again is resonating with all Americans of all backgrounds, regardless of their race, religion or creed. And so while we play on offense, Joe Biden and the Democrats are on defense. They are panicking. You could see it on the faces of everyone on CNN last night and this morning. And they know that Joe Biden is in serious trouble right now.

And that's why Trump's beating Biden in six out of the seven swing states. Nationally, Trump's up six. That is a huge lead. Biden might be able to campaign freely, but what good does that do? He's been a politician for 50 years and reads a teleprompter like Ron Burgundy. Folks, imagine what we can do next. Four more years. Pause.

Steve your final thoughts on this because it really does look bad. I would just ask Kelly, but really Nikki Haley, okay, tell us the state that you win, right? Where? Point to a single place where you have the best chance was New Hampshire and she lost. What's the path? I mean that's the whole thing is what is the path? It is over. Whatever anyone wants to say, whatever she wants to say, it is over. Donald Trump is going to be the nominee and I just don't understand why Nikki Haley can't follow the in the footsteps of those candidates who clearly are all about winning the election and uniting against Joe Biden, Vivek and Tim Scott, even Ron DeSantis. So I don't know why she can't get that point because for the sake of the country, she goes on about how important it is to the sake of the country. Yes, exactly. So let's get together and beat Joe Biden. And if I'm in the media and I'm in the room at the time.
