neil: so by august, voted,çó doe agreed? >> and signed. neil: you hear that? not just out of the white house and a measure out of the(yx&÷ treasury department mutually crafted but voted,ñr approved, obviously and then signed by the president of the united states, in other words the new law of the land. blake burman that looks like a generous timeline.çó reporter: wellñlthe voted part f it would involve senate majority leader mitch mcconnell and he made very interesting comments morning at a question and answer session. he was asked whether or not he is bullish, that is how it was phrased on both health care reform and tax reform, health care, the plan and tax reform, being done by august? that was the time frame he was given, what steve mnuchin talked mitch mcconnell didn't seem as optimistic. take a listen to mcconnell's answer from momentssi[÷ ago. >> well, as you and i were discussing before we came in here there are some constraints here. i don'tçó want to get too much down into the legislative weeds but we have, we have two )jju to do. c e for he

neil: all right. the reon i go back to obamacare, sir, this feeling, i wouldn't call it a revolt, difference, dramatic difference of opinion we're playing out on the hill between those who like speaker ryan's plan, complete with tax credits, to help people buy insurance and others say that is obamacare light around will be a disaster. there is not much wiggle room, right? two senators, senate obviously, 22 house members, in the house. so, are you worried that this is slipping away? >> not at all. not at all. i mean i think this is only natural in the sense of there is a lot of different, good ideas. and i think one of the things that you see from president trump is, he is willing to listen. he is willing to listen to people who have different ideas. he takes it all in, then he figures out what he think is the best plan, being open-minded to these views and getting it done. you have seen this in regards to it, we met with lots of different business leaders. he has had manufacturing ceos, he has had air

i called neil. neil's already heading off to government. he already had his plan to do his time at the department of justice. it would have been completely understandable for neil to say, you know, i got a hair appointment next week. i have to get my hair dyed. i have other things to do. he could have come up with a million excuse or said to me, my career is too important to me. i'm not going to strap myself into this burning boat and go down with you. excuse me while i get a drink. what he said was, he put his career on the line. i think that tells you a lot about the guy's person. neil gorsuch. so, what america's getting, judge gorsuch is a highly intelligent, principled and experienced man with a deep experience in our civil justice system. that's why i and every one of his old partnerships sent a letter to the senate saying you need him on the united states supreme court. i would say getting 40 independents, republicans and democrats, who won't even agree on the kind of coffee to stock in the kitchen, supporting neil gorsuch is an extra

neil. neil: thank you very much. it's been largely business as usual focusing on health care, obviously keeping an eye on gorsuch hearings going on. blake berman, what are you hearing now? blake: business as usual in the sense that the schedule is on schedule, neil, and the president beinbried ta white house with everything that's going on in london. that briefing came in earlier today from national security adviser hr macmaster. back here at the white house, the president was doing a healthcare event seated down with folks here at the white house when he made some very brief comments as it relates to london. here is the president from earlier this afternoon. >> we are getting an update on london. some big news having to do with london. it just happened. blake: meanwhile, neil, the full court press here as it relates to the healthcare bill which will get an up or down vote tomorrow on the house floor is in full swing. one deputy here at the white house earlier today saying that they are bringing everything to the clo

>> hey, neil. tonight is the president's first chance to speak publicly about what just went down on capitol hill. the question is does he talk about it? does he bring it up? the fact that he tweeted about it six times is a good sign that he will likely bring it up or is he just going to stick to the script and focus on what he came here to talk about, and that is selling the house republican healthcare plan. kentucky has really become one of the big battleground states in the healthcare debate. republicans and democrats have used it to sell their point. democrats say this is where obamacare has succeeded. republicans argue this is where medicaid expansion has grown too expensive. the real reason that kentucky has really become ground zero in this most recent debate on capitol hill is the state's two senators, both republican and they're on opposite ends. you have mitch mcconnell who just penned an oped in defense of the american healthcare act and you have rand paul, one of the most vocal critics

neil? neil: that he you, very, very much. left side of the screen, and i was getting worried there were no stairs when they opened up the front door. i said oh, boy, this could be a problem. they brought up the stairs. they're locking them in place. the president on orlando. on the flight had senator marco rubio with him. he is on board air force one, and will join the president on this school tour, this catholic elementary school, along with governor rk scott yosaat the bottom of the staircase there. i don't know whether it is his child or grandchild but he is there. education secretary betsy devos, we do know she is joining the president on this trip. this is not a charter school per se, but alternative to public schools in the area. catholic grade school. some say it goes up to middle school. i don't know for sure. the fallout from all of this at a time when the administration wants to focus on what it is trying to do on education. focus on repealing and replacing obamacare and of course on those tax cuts. the president ar

neil: all right. a week from today we should know, that is whether it is looking like the senate will commit to a vote on neil gorsuch to be next supreme court justice in the united states. two democrats already indicated they will vote for him, joe manchin of west virginia, heidi heitkamp of north dakota. in fact it was senator heitkamp who said despite the friction over the merrick garland treatment, i was thought two wrongs don't make a right. u.s. supreme court should be above politics. enter louisiana republican senator bill cassidy on what he makes of that sentiment and whether other democrats, he is a republican i should remind you,ç will follow suit. what do you think, senator? >> you know i think at least a few will. hard to think michael bennet from colorado, where neil force such is from would not vote to support. this is clearly partisan politics. jurists and attorney lawyers across the political spectrum endorse gorsuch. the fact that folks would not, i agree with senator heitkamp, it wi

neil: all right. if yesterday was the trump slump because it seems like everybody was pouncing on the sell off what do we call today? the trump bump? we are up 150 points. we had very good economic news that spurred that including consumer confidence hitting the highest level in 16 years. and another report that housing prices hit the highest level in 31 months. there's more tabbed infrastructure spending in the works and talk that the administration and congress are working tightly on redoing the healthcare thing, which the markets took as a sign that they have not saved up with that and getting the tax cuts rolling and all of that. priced per for -- for perfection. blake burman has more. >> hi, neil. i talked about this report from axia that said in the wake of this healthcare thing from last week, the administration is considering possibly doing both major tax reform and a massive infrastructure bill together. i was told by that official at this moment there's nothing definiti definitive. fast forw

neil? >> neil: thanks, blake. with us, the health and human services secretary, tom price. thanks for coming. >> thanks, neil. >> neil: the back and forth on this feels like the back and forth on democratic initiative almost seven years ago now. is it? >> no. what we've done the past 1 1/2 years has been to work in an open way and in a transparent way to try to craft a replacement for what is a current law that is harming people. got costs going up, care going down and only getting worse, especially in that individual and small group market. so this is a solution. this is a positive solution. it's one that seeks to put patients and families and doctors in charge of healthcare and not the federal government. this is a major step in the right direction. >> neil: congressman -- i apologize. secretary, when you see the response you're getting from conservative groups upset, from the club for growth to the coke brothers and others, the conservative senators and rand paul that will be us soon, they don't like it. >> some of this is tactics talk, process talks. if you look at the

. >> neil: wow. hope spring is eternal, as they say. meanwhile, to andy puzder, slated to be the next labor secretary. and then a buzz saw of delays and he had to pull himself out. i'm talking a lot of delays and a lot of buzz-sawing activity. we get into an interview that is getting a great deal of response in and out side of washington. andy puzder on no regrets now from fox business. >> i'm disappointed. it was very sad to watch the president's state of the union. while the speech was incredible and watching the democrats act like children was enjoyable. it was great to see is the guys on the floor. hear about the president talk about issues that you and i have been talking about the past eight to ten years on your show and i've been writing about and very involved in and i could have been a big help to the president. it was hard to watch that it was heart breaking. but i'm fine. i'm going to continue on, continue to fight for workers rights and free enterprise. it was a tough fight. >> neil: how

good to see you. >> hi, neil. how are you? >> neil: i'm okay. i don't know about these tax cuts though. what do you make of it? >> they did a hell of a lousy job on the healthcare thing. leaves me irritated? >> neil: who did? >> they handed the president a package that was the speaker's dream. they transformed it into a package deal to go follow them along. he played ball. he did his part. they didn't do their part. they didn't deliver. >> neil: would you have done the healthcare thing off the top? >> look, he won on jobs. he didn't win on healthcare. >> neil: the argument -- this gets to the process here -- >> reconciliation. don't give me that in one, two, three. >> you would have gone with tax cuts. now they're back to trying to healthcare thing. they better get their reforms in place. now he's done the regulation thing. he's moved on the isis fronts. he's moving on a number of fronts. i've had 9 ceos in private equity reviews. five in consumer, four in industrial. every one of them positive on this. there's a vibration -- >> neil: positive a

. >> neil: all right. fox on top of, well, selling a new healthcare law or the attempt to become law. welcome. i'm neil cavuto. this is "your world." the administration seems to be standing by for the time being a measure put together by largely republican leadership that calls for completely repealing and revamping what is known as obamacare. we're going to talk to the health and human services secretary about this, tom price. after that, rand paul leading an effort to oppose what the secretary wants to do. he says his intentions are good but the roll-out is not. first to blake burman at the white house. how is this going down? >> press secretary sean spicer made it clear that while president trump is willing to listen to ideas as it relates to the american healthcare act, they're clearly in sell mode as he put it, trying to pitch this plan across the country. in fact, in about an hour's time here at the white house, the president is set to sit down and meet with conservative leaders as it relates to this

neil? neil: hmmm, blake burman. i want to get the read on all of that and ivanka role in this administration whether it is too cozy, a little too, i don't know -- too much in the family's interest, financial and otherwise. noelle nikpour joining us. and jessica deloach. jessica, there is a long history of presidential families kind of running things. the most recent example, in fact they developed anti-nepotism laws since when john kennedy chose his younger brother bobby to be attorney general. but we have seen examples since where siblings, children, also play a role. is that bad? >> well, play a role of sorts. if you want to call that recent, that is one thing. what we're talking about here not the same thing with what happened to the kennedy family. we're talking very close family members, have very close shared business interests. everything has been confusing how connected they are to these businesses. neil: wait a minute. i know you're young and all that stuff, and so am i, appointing your brother attorney gen

i'm neil cavuto. on this day, i had a chance to speak to the treasury secretary of the united states. indications from steven mnuchin that all systems go for perhaps the biggest wave of tax cuts we've seen since ronald reagan was president. long before charles payne was even alive. or close. charles payne, what the heck? what is going on here? >> neil, it was a combination of everything. of course, it was the president's speech last night that sparked it. we came out the gates indicating up 150 points before the opening bell. it was, of course, the blue chip names. the same names that have powered this rally from the very beginning. goldman sachs up five points. that has been 39% of the dow joins rally since the election. it's the same names. j.p. morgan. you spoke with mnuchin today. i tell you what is really amazing, moment you spoke with the new treasury secretary because the market was -- looked like it was settled in for a pretty good gain. it got another leg to up the side. that's why we have th

neil, it is yours. neil: i agree with lizzie. if they do health care, does it potentially get in the way of tax cut thing? stuart: wait a second. is it not possible to get a number of people who were voting no, vote yes, resubmit the bill, if they now say yes, away you bo, what is wrong with that? is that possible parliamentarywise? neil: it is just possible but just as possible you will get a brooklyn accent. that doesn't seem probable. buddy, thank you very much. that is what is going on here. i'm neil cavuto. you're watching "coast to coast" on the fox business network. here is the conundrum. market seizing on the speak are's remarks earlier, he is ready full throttle to go back to health care. more importantly this was. >> we'll work together and listen together until we get this right. it is too important. obamacare is a collapsing law. obamacare is doing too much damage to families. so we're going to get this right. meantime we'll do all of our other work we came here to do. neil: all right. that on top of what was some pre

neil: governor, always good seeing you. >> stray strong, neil. neil: be well. meanwhile the department of homeland security accepting bids on the wall contract, the border wall. they already have a few dozen interested parties including a number of mexican companies. i'm not kidding you. connell mcshane on that after this. ♪ approaching medicare eligibility? you may think you can put off checking out your medicare options until you're sixty-five, but now is a good time to get the ball rolling. keep in mind, medicare only covers about eighty percent of part b medil costs. the rest is to you. that's where aarp medicare supplement insurance plans insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company come in. like all standardized medicare supplement insurance plans, they could help pay some of what medicare doesn't, saving you in out-of-pocket medical costs. you've learned that taking informed steps along the way really makes a difference later. that's what it means to go long™. call now and request this free decision guide. it's full of information on medicare and th

i'm neil cavuto. you're watching "your world" and you're watching a turn in political worlds here where now republicans are hiding key legislation or at least their plans for it from other republicans who might be critical of their approach to repealing and ultimately replacing obamacare. wouldn't you know it got the likes of rand paul angry that he was trying to get into this so-called super secret meeting where they want to make sure they can craft a plan and not have anyone else see it. it got me thinking. it happens sometimes. haven't we been here before? didn't i rail against this before? it doesn't matter who's door is close, not on our watch. locked out and we're trying to figure out. you remember watergate? get ready for door gate. started with harry reid holding the chosed door meetings. republicans say they're being locked out. they call him the handyman. i admire guys like him. this is handyman any of kids cartoon fame so you can open any door and keep it open. >> absolutely. mr. handyman c

we're looking -- >> neil: for everybody. >> yes. >> neil: all right. maybe not for everybody though. there's a balance back and forth among uber conservatives that say you have to pay for these things. they have to be revenue neutral. along comes mark meadows. here's the hard part whether that conservative caucus will disrupt this measure as they did with the healthcare thing. mark meadows said something over the weekend, maybe they don't have to be revenue neutral. here we go again. the back and forth, the tug of war over what it would take to make these things happened. wall street and the eight straight sell off, you didn't see a streak like that going back to august in 2011, but right now growing concerns that they're not on the same page. the here's collin mcshane handicapping where we stand now. >> it's clear the administration wants to move on to tax reform. but to the point you're making given the events the last few days on healthcare, none of this is going to be easy. two big questions that we're looking at. number 1 is big picture. can they

neil. neil: hillary, thank you very, very much. back and forth as to whether donald trump is too paranoid with these wiretapping allegations and agencies out to get him. but we've been looking at this. sometimes when you're looking over your shoulder you really do see a lot of people gunning for you. our charlie gasparino on that after this. as after a dvt blood clot,ital i sure had a lot to think about. what about the people i care about? ...including this little girl. and what if this happened again? i was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me? so i asked my doctor. and he recommended eliquis. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. both made me turn around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificia

neil? neil: we have congressman mike turner joining us from ohio on what the next step for the gop right there. i don't want to digress too much, congressman. but on the intelligence issue whether the chairman should recuse himself from the russian investigation, some democratic colleagues say he should leave period, where do you stand on this? >> i support devin nunes on this the democrats are going crazy because he got close to the heart of this whole issue. we have fbi director comey saying there were leaks. these leaks are criminal of information that was intelligence community communications that were likely intercepted on the trump transition team. those are criminal actions. but, more so, the chairman has come forward, says this appears to be surveillance occurring of the trump transition team that was shared with perhaps officials of the obama administration. we need to know who those people are. we need to know if it was improper. as we get closer, more and more democrats say we ne

you've seen the reaction. >> neil: but this trillion dollars, this year. >> yes. >> neil: where will that come from? >> from a public and private partnership. doesn't mean it's a trillion dollars off of the government's balance sheet. the president is determined we're going to do a infrastructure plan that is significant. one of the most we've seen and we're going to rebuild america. >> neil: part of that address, he still stands by the tax cuts, still stands by those in the military spending by $54 billion a year. one of the means she was going to pay for that was to cut the state department budget. that was a nonstarter in lindsey graham's view. it was president going to go anywhere. mitch mcconnell, the senate leader, saying the same. what did you think about instant reaction, that no, not there? >> the budget process starts with the president and the administration. it goes through a congressional appropriations process. this is the start of it. the administration is going to work with congress on this. i think the message that the president wanted to deliver was loud and clear.

neil, it is yours. neil: something going on with snap? stuart: so i was told. neil: incredible. i was hearing your dilemma. you write letters and write notes. i write letters and notes there. are really no stocks for us. stuart: no. neil: there is a company called mitsubishi pencil. it makes pencils and pens, true. something you and i might relate to. americanç carriage company, thy make -- stuart: got it right, american carriage company makes buggy whips. that is why i invested with them a long, long time ago. neil: telling you it is diversified. you can buy its products on the internet. and there is crain stationary. the no the same crane company, multifaceted manufacturer. bottom line there are not many options for folks like you and me. stuart: neil, i believe i have been ambushed. it is neil: by the way, kiss your tax cut good-bye. we'll have more on that. i just love doing that. the snap ipo apparently a huge deal here. and i know my teenage sons are into this and drawing little funny faces and awe, but do you put a multibillion-dollar value for technology that can do th

election last november, neil. >> neil: thanks. she touched on it, the white house is standing firmly behind its attorney general, saying that he did the right thing and even find it's not sensical to talk about recuse al let alone stepping down. >> jeff sessions is brutally honest. here's what i think happened in my mind. they were asking about campaign contacts with the russians. he said he had none. i believe him. he claims the conversation was about being a senator and i believe jeff sessions. >> neil: all right. that is the view from lindsey graham here. john roberts at the white house with how they're dealing with this right now. hey, john. >> hi, neil. good afternoon. here in washington, you can glean what is about to be said in a press conference by looking at the body language of the people close to the person giving the press conference. here's what we with tell you in terms of the white house posture in recent minutes. sean spicer a board air force one a few minutes ago saying the president still has full confidence. thi

neil? >> neil: all right, molly. thank you very much. we'll be speaking to that sheriff that cannot believe what he's hearing and seeing, someone in government essentially urging illegals to hide from government. he's coming up. in the meantime, markets are still trying to get a sense of where this trump administration goes from here. again, the last ten days we were down has folks wondering. here's connell mcshane. >> dow down 40 points. for the republicans, the agenda is set. today is march 29. we have a recess around the corner. not a lot of open dates. fast forward, april 29. that's the president's 100th day in office. it's the day before that, april 28, that needs to be circled. if there's no budget deal in place, we'll be facing the possibility of a partial government shut down like we did in 2013. so that by necessity must be first, a budget deal. the big question is what would hold that up from getting down. a defunding of planted parent hood or a border wall? that's to be debated next month. then the white house can move on to p

neil? >> neil: thanks very much. blake burman at the white house. all of these distractions, are they getting in the way of the things that wall street wants to see? it bears repeating that the financial community is not red or blue, they're green. so if they see things that can disrupt the green or tax cuts or replacement of obamacare delayed, they get nervous and antsy and charlie gasparino, they get nervous. >> wall street firms and their lobbies deal with congressional staffers. the word they're getting from republican staffers on the hill, in the senate, the word from key senate ires is that the trump administration aside from the rhetoric that kellyanne conway is spouting about the president being very clear and concise about what he wants to do in terms of tax cuts and the budget, they're getting -- they're feeling the opposite. they're feeling there's not a lot of disclosure and daylight in exactly what his budget is going to look like, what the tax cuts are actually going to look like, what proposals will be on the table. they don't feel li

neil: all right. two development i want to pass along with you as we're waiting to hear from paul ryan. he is meeting in the white house now with the president. we're getting indications that louie gohmert, conservative republican congressman is out saying it is not looking good for a vote potentially right away today. that it may be postponed. again, indicating that there might be more than expected no votes from the freedom caucus, that conservative group of congressman and women. is beingly, the, u.s. appropriations chairman of new jersey is announced his opposition to this health care bill. that he he is part of that establishment, so-called moderate republicans. so if he doesn't like it and there is still a good number of conservative republicans that doesn't look good. whether that would postpone the bill vote today, to another day or just shelf it entirely, republicans lick their wounds and start over again. do as the president indicated, tax cuts and work on that, it's way too recall to tell b

neil: thank you very much. in cities, it was crystallized in the rate of a high school girl, when one of those allegedly behind it was here legally and in fact had been deported or should have been after this. neil: you heard of things where he states, things were cities, rockville, maryland, pushing to have that status raising a lot of eyebrows, vacations into how it could have happened. >> two teenagers who came to this country illegally accused of a brutal rape at a maryland high school. henry sanchez from guatemala, 17-year-old josÉ montana came from el salvador. police didn't release his photo because he is a minor but he is tried as an adult. they pushed a 40-year-old girl into the boys room in montgomery county and raped her in a bathroom stall. sanchez has a removal case against him but was still involved in the school. a new homeland security report shows montgomery county near the top of us jurisdiction, the decline immigration and customs detainers. >> montgomery county is acting as a sanctuary coun

neil? neil: the timing of this, we keep tng by the it's a surgical strike on the part of the president. everything has to go and work according to schedule and almost to the minute or week or month. asaw the the effort the president wants to making to repeal and replace obamacare. they have to try to wrap that up literally within the next month. shortly thereafter they expect budget reconciliation which will require a simple majority of senators to get it passed. and a debt ceiling quagmire is anyone's guess. irony being the president could face the most resistance with his own party. lou: you are exactly right, and paul ryan leading that resistance it's a peculiar position for a speaker to be in. he is at once determined because this better way agenda he created in his mind, this has become at least as powerful and important as the president's agenda which is completely unfathomable to anyone rational or a student of history. neil: it's his fix other highway. one of the fixes that has a fi

it's quite the crowd here, neil. quite the crowd. neil: i'm getting a look at it here. do you know whether some of the supporters there are a little bummed out with the health care thing falling apart? i've heard others say, well, we're relieved because we didn't like what they were coming up with on the hill? where do you stand? >> i'm hearing relieved. i haven't heard anybody that wanted this to pass. they're very happy, they want the democrats to take full responsibility for the entire failure of obamacare, so, that's what we're hearing in rhode island. neil: rhode island is a big democratic state by and large, so, how are you received there? >> well, excuse me, donald trump did win 65% in the vote in the primary here, that was one of the biggest wins-- it was the biggest win in the state of rhode island. and one of them here was a democrat all his life and he's now a republican because of donald trump. and rhode island, is blue, but you'd be surprised how many trump supporters are here. neil: looking at it now, if you had advised the president on his agenda, would y

neil: all right. continuing with these hearings now in a bit of a break here, about another 30-minute breaker who. so far if you're looking for any fireworks or attempt on the part of democrats to dislodge judge gorsuch or to catch him off-guard or sort of, ill wit that does not appear to be the case. the old line they haven't laid a glove on him still appears here. we're early in the process. strong, get a chance to can for ten minutes. emotional exceeded that all said and done. by that definition, this hearing should be dragging on until at least 3:00 in the morning. i'm exaggerating, that these guys can not make a concise point. so far judge gorsuch is comporting himself very well. in the meantime we're not losing sight what has been happening on the lower right-hand side of your screen. you're, a lot of health care seems to be gasping for air and own little paddles, president says on capitol hill, guys we have to get on the same stick, to republican leaders, so too will the republican majority in

. >> you're right on the money there, neil. obviously, the white house would like to continue to move forward its agenda. clearly the setback on health care and some would argue, by the way, if you look at the long view, maybe it's not such a setback, but in terms of politicalically, it's a setback and they're trying to move beyond that, talking about jobs, linda mcmahon and the vice-president of course on the way to charge st-- charleston, west virginia to talk about regulatory reform and something the white house has done very, very well. continuing to they'll talk about building more american jobs in terms of infrastructure and unions. they want to get those sort of things done. you'll hear the president talk about that as he makes his way over to the mountain near state. . we're talking about that, very confident that neil gorsuch may be confirmed and it may take the nuclear options and the pretty good will conduct the meetings. and we'll pass it along to you, my friend. as always, i want to go right now to tom delay and yo

i'll add one thing, neil. there's hardcore financial items in this healthcare bill that would have benefitted small businesses. small cap stocks are in the red this year. you get rid of the employer mandate, it would have helped hiring and small businesses. they wouldn't have had the burden of providing health insurance to employees. companies with 50 employees or less. almost a trillion dollars in tax cuts. >> neil: you're right about that. this morning, it was better in the eyes of republicans than the president's affordable care act. but it wasn't better enough, it wasn't good enough. that ended up being their dividing line. they might come back to regret it. >> they were digging through the weeds to find little items to be upset about rather than looking at a trillion in spending cuts. again, almost a trillion in tax cuts. how about just the medical devices tax which in three years destroyed 29,000 jobs? that was 7% of all med tech jobs that were lost in a three-year period. it was a 25% cut in medicaid. t

neil: all right. gary. >> safer means big and slow, 3m consistent growth throughout the decades and i expect to continue throughout the future. neil: big and slow, the sorry of my life. the cost of freedom continues with david asman on the place for business, fox. >> after years of endless budget cuts that have impaired our defense, i am calling for one of the largest defense spending increases in history. david: president trump calling to boost military spending by 54 billion dollars as an increase of about 10%. well, forget too much. some here say it's not enough. hi, everybody, i'm david asman, welcome to forbes on fox. let's go in focus with steve forbes, rich, elizabeth mack jond, bruce. and steve, too much or too little? >> barely beginning.

remarks, he mentioned neil gorsuch. ence: by nominating judge neil gorsuch, president trump has kept his word to nominate a justice to the spring court who will keep faith to the constitution and who will and hold -- uphold the god-given liberties that are enshrined there. [applause] week.ce: you saw it this my daughter was off work. she got to watch a lot of judge gorsuch's testimony before the senate. three days of powerful testimony before the senate. judge gorsuch made it clear why donald trump nominated him to the highest court in the land, then it he -- didn't he? is, america's all this week what president trump saw when he made that decision. judge neil gorsuch is one of the most respected, qualified, and mainstream nominees to the supreme court in american history. [applause] it is true. it is true. but remarkable, this week, senator chuck schumer and the in his party in the senate actually announced that the democrats plan to filibuster george gorsuch's -- a judge gorsuch's nomination to be an associate justice

brian: neil, boom. neil: the boom generation, born 1943 to 1960, first arrived as the victory babies of world war ii. they were also the first dr. spock babies, who told parents to raise their children a bit more indulgently, with a bit more relaxed style of nurturing. give them what they want materially so these kids could think about deeper values and deeper meanings. '43-cohorts --e those born in '43 -- we later met during the free-speech movement at berkeley in 1965. this was the same college class. they went on to add passion and violence to the protest movement of the 1960's. during the when everyone 1970's, expected the boomers to become a great new political force in american politics, they instead entered a political remission. by 1980, they had become the yuppie, and they concentrated on a certain cultural perfectionism. rather than involving themselves with politics, they detached themselves from institutional life, from having families, from having steady jobs. today they're beginning to ent

>> i really like that judge neil gorsuch is a constitutional conservative. one of my favorite quotes find that came up recently asked a judge if the like all your decisions are almost certainly a bad judge. basically just speaking to the fact that you can have the law your weight and you can't just put your own feelings, your own emotions and what you think is the correct interpretation of the law. the correct interpretation of the law is what it is at that stands apart from your own views. >> you said you're an intern at heritage. where did you go to school? >> the university of texas at dallas. >> how have you become a conservative? why are you a conservative? >> that's a good question. i was raised in a conservative household with conservative irish catholic parents. my father always was not a political idol to me but he served in the navy under ronald reagan, and coming up in that household with an excellent -- individual responsibilities and also the importance of the rule of law and society is really informative to me. >> thank you for your time. >> yo

neil: it is not a done deal. looking at wall street, it added seven straight down sessions, relatively holding its own, believing the tax-cut the coming. i don't know if it is a given that they won't have disagreement. >> this would have been a huge political win for the president and paul ryan but to wall street they see it as shaking a girlfriend when you don't want to get married. now they turned to tax reform, house and senate republicans and that could be in easy when, better news for wall street, everyone loves lower taxes, not everyone loves socialized medicine. some tough wounds by the speaker and president but if they turn and get this win it will be a huge political victory, they can gain the capital back and go back and cross legislation that makes sense to more factions of the party, many of whom defected yesterday. neil: not all agree how to go about tax cuts, i want to bring in gary, charles payne, one of the things that have come up, tax cuts would be easier to ram through but there is concern amon
