T SINCE ALL OF THIS HAS GONE DOWN. >> Ainsley: THANK YOU SO MUCH, MARK. I THINK WE WILL HAVE A FEW WEEKS MORE WEEKS OF THE HONEYMOON PHASE ONCE SHE CHOOSES.
SHE HAS A FRIEND. SHE HAS SOMEONE WHO CAN HELP HER GET THROUGH THE COMMENTS AND WORD SALADS AND KIND OF A PARTNER. >> Steve: SHE'LL DO THE IS A A LAD HE WILL DO THE ENTREE.
>> Brian: CHRIS LA IS A VETO RUNNING THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN. SOURCES TELL HIM SHAPIRO IS OUT THAT IT'S WALZ. >> Ainsley: WALZ IS JUST AS PROGRESSIVE AS BERNIE SANDERS.
THAT ACTUALLY, A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY WANT A MODERATE. IF SHE PICKS HIM. THESE ARE TWO VERY PROGRESSIVE INDIVIDUALS.
>> Lawrence: HER PATH ALSO NEEDS PENNSYLVANIA. YOU WOULD THINK IF THEY REALLY WANT TO WIN, THEN ANY WOULD HAVE THAT. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THIS OFF AIR, I THINK THE CONCERN, WHICH THIS IS SAD BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE IS THAT A LOT OF THEIR VOTERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT MICHIGAN.
AND IF THOSE VOTERS WON'T NECESSARILY VOTE FOR TRUMP BUT THEY WILL STAY AT HOME OR VOTE THIRD PARTY. AND I THINK THAT'S THE REASON WHY -- IF THEY DECIDE NOT TO PICK HIM. IT WILL BE BECAUSE OF THAT.
>> Brian: YOU TALKED ABOUT MONEY HEWN MOON IS THE HONEYMOON OVER. AP SAID IT LOOKS LIKE WITH THIS ECONOMY CRATERING LIKE THIS THE HONEYMOON COULD INDEED BE OVER. GOES TO THE REALITY WHAT YOU ARE INVESTING IN 401(K) AND PENSION IS SITTING DOWN.
DOW DOWN 2. 6%. NASDAQ AT THE END OF THE DAY DOWN 3.
4%. S&P DOWN 3%. THEY HOME FOR SOMEWHAT OF A REBOUND TODAY.
UNCERTAINTY IS EVERYWHERE. ESPECIALLY AFTER JOB NUMBERS ON FRIDAY. THAT THERE WERE THREE LOSER DAYS RIGHT PRIOR TO THAT AT SOME POINT, YOU HAVE TO ADMIT.
WE GOT TO TAKE ACTION BECAUSE, PERHAPS THE MOST INDICATIVE OF WHERE THINGS ARE GOING. A YEAR AGO WE WERE AT 3. 3%.
NOW WE ARE AT 4. 3% UNEMPLOYMENT. STILL HISTORICALLY LOW.
BUT NO WORRY WHERE THE DIRECTION IS HEADING. IT HAS TO CHANGE WHAT YOU TALK ABOUT NUMBER ONE AT YOUR CONVENTION COMING UP. WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT SUCCESS AND ASKED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING NOW WITH INFLATION AND EVERYTHING ELSE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE.
>> Lawrence: TYPICALLY BEFORE A CANDIDATE HITS THE BIG "PRIMETIME" STAGE THERE IS A SERIES OF VETTING. THEY HAVE DEBATES. >> Brian: NINE MONTHS OF VETTING.
PRIMARY. >> Lawrence: THEY GO THROUGH THE RINGER SO THEY'RE PREPARED FOR THE BIG BOY STAGE WHEN THEY HAVE TO GO AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN WITH KAMALA HARRIS.
AND WE ARE LEARNING MORE AND MORE AND MORE ABOUT WHERE SHE STANDS. STEPHEN MOORE WAS ON SEAN HANNITY LAST NIGHT. AND SAID THAT WE MAY HAVE THE MOST LEFT WING CANDIDATE EVER.
WATCH. >> IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAJOR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES OVER THE LAST 30 OR 40 YEARS. AND THAT INCLUDES PEOPLE LIKE MICHAEL DUKAKIS AND WALTER MONDALE AND HILLARY CLINTON AND JOHN KERRY.
I HAVE TO SAY I THINK KAMALA HARRIS IS THE MOST ANTIBUSINESS PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IN YOUR AND MY LIFETIME. I MEAN, THIS WOMAN HAS ENDORSED ONE POLICY AFTER ANOTHER THAT HAVE -- WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY RUINOUS TO OUR ECONOMY TAXING ON REALIZED CAPITAL GAINS. DON'T FORGET SHE IS ON RECORD AS BEING AGAINST MODERN OIL AND GAS DRILLING PERIOD FROM THE MEDIA YOU WOULD THINK SHE WERE MOTHER TERESA.
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN HER POLL NUMBERS GO UP I THINK A LOT OF INVESTORS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND WORLD SAID HOLY COW THIS WOMAN CAN'T ACTUALLY BE ELECTED PRESIDENT. I THINK THAT CAUSED A COMPLETE PANIC. >> AOC SAID SHE SHOULD LISTEN TO -- OUR TAX RATE SHOULD BE 70% TO 90%.
WHEN KAMALA WAS ASKED ABOUT THAT SHE AGREED WITH THAT. >> Lawrence: YEAH SHE DID. >> Ainsley: WE NEED TO LISTEN TO THAT IF SHE PICKS WALZ, HE WAS IN FAVOR OF HIGHER MINIMUM WAGE.
STEVEN IS RIGHT. IF YOU OWN A BUSINESS, THIS IS NOT YOUR CANDIDATE. >> Steve: PARTICULARLY RIGHT NOW, WHEN EVERYBODY IS THINKING ABOUT THE ECONOMY, AND OF COURSE AS FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS REFERRED TO IN HIS TRUTH SOCIALS ALL THE FOOD COSTS MORE.
EVERYTHING COSTS 20% MORE THAN IT DID WHEN HE LEFT THE WHITE HOUSE. AND SO, ULTIMATELY, WE NEED TO HEAR MORE FROM KAMALA HARRIS ABOUT THE ECONOMY. AND HER VIEW.
AND, YOU KNOW, FOR THE NEXT 90 DAYS FOR THE MOST PART THE REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO TREAT HER LIKE THE INCUMBENT. SO ANY TIME THERE IS SOMETHING BIG, LIKE A POTENTIAL WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST, OR THE ECONOMY STARTS TO TANK, THEY HAVE GOT TO ASK HER ABOUT IT. AND SHE HAS GOT TO SAY SOMETHING.
>> Ainsley: SHE DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING. WE KNOW HER RECORD. >> Steve: AINSLEY, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT AND SHE IS GETTING AWAY WITH IT.
>> Brian: THE GOOD THING WE HAD A VCR LEADING UP TO THIS. WE WERE TAPING A LOT OF DIFFERENT REMARKS. THE YEAR WAS 2017.
>> Steve: IT WAS A BETA MAX BACK THEN, WASN'T IT? >> Brian: YOU ARE RIGHT. MY MISTAKE.
CORRECT CORRECT THAT WE WILL CORRECT THAT FOR THE WEST COASTEST COAST BEFORE WE AIR THE SHOW. KAMALA HARRIS SAID SOMETHING IN HER CAREER GET NUGGETS DREBLEGD UP. SOMETHING THAT IS RADIOACTIVE THE WORD WOKE.
SHE EMBRACES IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S CHANGED BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T TELL US WHAT IS CHANGED. JUST REMEMBER WHAT SHE USED TO THINK.
>> WE HAVE TO STAY WOKE, LIKE EVERYBODY NEEDS TO BE WOKE. [LAUGHTER] AND YOU CAN TALK ABOUT IF YOU ARE THE WOKEST OR WOKER, BUT JUST STAY MORE WOKE THAN LESS WOKE. >> Lawrence: IT'S UNBELIEVABLE.
I MEAN, THIS IS THE PERSON THAT IS LEADING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. THEY COULD HAVE HAD A CANDIDATE THAT COULD EXPLAIN ISSUES, THAT COULD HAVE RUN ON THIS, EVEN IF THEY WANTED A PROGRESSIVE AGENDA, SOMEONE THAT COULD ACTUALLY GO THERE TO RALLY THE BASE. THE PART THAT I HATE ABOUT THE HONEYMOON -- EVERY CANDIDATE GETS SOME TYPE OF HONEYMOON.
SHE HASN'T DONE ANYTHING TO DESERVE THE HONEYMOON. SHE HASN'T HAD SOME POLICY AGENDA THAT IS RALLYING AMERICANS. SHE HASN'T HAD THIS STUNNING SPEECH LIKE BARACK OBAMA DID AT THE 2004 DNC CONVENTION.
WHAT -- WHAT IS HER MOMENT? WHAT IS THE THING THAT HAS GOT VOTERS TO VOTE FOR HER? AND THEN I REMEMBERED.
SHE DIDN'T GET A SINGLE VOTE. AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM RIGHT THERE. >> Ainsley: CAPITAL D BEHIND HER NAME DEMOCRAT.
MEDIA WILL LO HER. EXCITED FINALLY TO HAVE A CANDIDATE TO RUN AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. THEY WERE WORRIED WITH BIDEN IN OFFICE THAT THEY WERE DEFINITELY WERE GOING TO LOSE.
THEY KNEW THEY WOULD LOSE. THIS IS A LADY WHO WANTS HIGH TAXES. SHE TALKED ABOUT DEFUNDING ICE, DEFUNDING POLICE.
DECRIMINALIZING ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. BUYING YOUR -- MAKING YOU GIVE YOUR GUN BACK. SHE WILL GIVE YOU MONEY BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR GUN BACK.
ELIMINATING PRIVATE HEALTHCARE AND BANNING FRACKING. >> Steve: RIGHT. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THAT SOUNDBITE THAT WE JUST SAW AND BRIAN SET TUPPER PERFECTLY.
THE QUESTION FOR KAMALA HARRIS TODAY -- THE QUESTION IS THIS: ARE YOU STILL WOKE? HOW WOKE DO YOU WANT TO MAKE AMERICA GOING FORWARD? OR DID YOU, LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WAS ANNOUNCED LAST WEEK, HAVE YOU ESSENTIALLY COME UP WITH A NEW EXPLANATION FOR WHY YOU ARE AGAINST ALL THAT STUFF?
USED TO BE WOKE NOW I'M NOT WOKE. >> Lawrence: WHAT CAUSED THE CHANGE? WHAT SUDDENLY MADE YOU EVOLVE AND REMEMBER, BERNIE SANDERS IS NOW SAYING THAT JOE BIDEN IS -- HAS BEEN THE MOST PROGRESSIVE PRESIDENT AND SHE IS SUPPOSED TO BE EVEN MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN HIM?
>> COMES TO FRACKING SENATOR MURPHY TOLD JACQUI HEINRICH WHY SHE FOR FRACKING NOW? OH, THEY HAVE GOTTEN BETTER AT IT. IT'S SAFER.
THAT'S RIGHT. THEY FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT. >> Lawrence: IT'S CLEANER.
>> Brian: SO TELL ME WHAT IS SO MUCH BETTER ABOUT FRACKING TODAY AND SO MUCH FAVOR AND FANTASTIC? SO I CAN'T WAIT FOR THESE EXPLANATION. >> Lawrence: I GET A KICK OUT OF THE MEDIA.
THEY STILL HAVEN'T LEANDER THEY'RE LESSON. WENT OUT THERE AND JUST EMBARRASSED YOU GUYS. NOW YOU GUYS ARE DOING THE SAME THING WITH KAMALA HARRIS AND THERE'S GOING TO BE A BIG MOMENT.
MARK MY WORDS. SHE IS GOING TO CRUMBLE UNDER PRESSURE AND YOU GUYS WILL BE IN THE SAME BOAT AGAIN. >> Steve: LAWRENCE, RIGHT NOW SHE IS COMPLETELY ENCASED IN BUBBLE WRAP BECAUSE SHE IS NOT TALKING TO ANYBODY.
THIS IS PART OF THEIR -- SHE IS JOINING THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE SO LATE IN THE CYCLE. THIS IS JUST PART OF THE STRATEGY. KEEP -- YOU KNOW, EXPOSE HER TO THE PUBLIC AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE.
AND LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS. >> Brian: JUST A THING ON BUBBLE WRAP. I MUCH PREFER THAT THAN THOSE LITTLE SMALL STYROFOAM THINGS IT ENDS UP ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
>> Ainsley: I HATE THOSE THINGS, TOO. >> Brian: POUR THEM INTO THE BAG AND BREAK UP THE BOX. >> Ainsley: I HATE THOSE.
>> Steve: PEANUTS. >> Brian: BUBBLE WRAP. IF YOU YOU ARE SHIPPING SOMETHING TO ME BUBBLE WRAVMENT I DON'T WANT THE LITTLE FOAM THINGS.
>> Steve: AND PEANUTS. >> Brian: ALL OVER THE FLOOR. >> Ainsley: SPEAKING OF BETA MAX CHRISTMASTIME DAD GETS ALL OF US A BETA MACHINE WE APT VHS.
WE GO IN THE MORNING AND UNWRAP IT'S A BETA MACHINE LIKE A YEAR LATER WE ARE STILL AT BLOCKBUSTER TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING THAT WE CAN WATCH BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE WALL AT BLOCKBUSTER BETA WITH MAYBE 10 OPTIONED REST WAS DHS. >> Steve: BETA WAS BETTER. INVENTED BY SONY.
IT WAS HIGHER END, BETTER QUALITY TAPE MACHINE. >> Brian: ALL COMING BACK AGAIN. >> Ainsley: HOLD ON.
PROBABLY ON SALE. HERE IS THE VHS, HERE IS THE BETA. WE ARE GETTING THE BETA.
>> Steve: IF WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT BETA MAX. WE MIGHT AS WELL OPEN A CAN OF WORMS WITH THAT HE THAT HE BRIAN GETTING YELLED AT ON MY EMAIL IT'S A DOLPHIN LIKE FISH BUT NOT DOLPHIN. WHEN I SAID DOLPHIN WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE.
>> Lawrence: CORRECT.
