I'm getting a big fat tax cut under Donald Trump, because I'm prosperous, right?

The United States should have retaliated sooner. We should have done this six months ago.

I believe President Reagan, which is peace through strength.

This will dog him or doom him in his presidency.

They did. The Department of the Homeland Security, Office of the Director of National Intelligence said and I quote, 'This was intended to interfere with the U.S. election process.'

They will get huge tax breaks. Giant beautiful extraordinary gorgeous tax breaks. The classiest in the world but they got liquidate.

A trust is only blind if the beneficiary has no idea of its contents, that's why we called a blind.

He has to sell everything, liquidate those assets and put them into treasury bills, would be the safest thing, where there can be no conflict of interest.

Any president who has children, adults this accomplished, should listen to it. Good for President-elect Trump. That's not a problem, Jeffrey.

It's abuse of power.

Mr. Trump, President-elect Trump did not answer back. Chuck Jones said he lied about the numbers. Apparently, Chuck Jones is right.

Some of the people he's looking at to entrust our national foreign policy to were very hawkish, Rudy Giuliani and John Bolton, among them, very hawkish.

But what I heard kind of like Kirsten, is I'm sure Rick's right about Syria, because that's the coming decision he'll have to make, but I heard echoes of Iraq.

One of the reasons coal is dying is because fracking has produced natural gas at abundant levels and very low prices which has priced coal out of the competitor of market.

They don't want to fight 'Mad Dog' Mattis.

I think that General Mattis and President -- when he will be President Trump will make a strong case for this come January.

Actually this speech did both. This is the first major Trump speech I've ever seen he didn't have a villain.

Here's what Trump is going to resolve it for the Democrats. He's going to come with an infrastructure bill that's larded with corporate special interests and the Democrats won't be able to support it.

Democrats need to learn from this, not, not poo-poo it. Part of leadership is showmanship.

Trump said it tonight. And so I think by morning, ISIS will disband. Because that's all you have to do, use the magic word.

The phone call, you're right.

Democrats have been campaigning on this, Democrats have been calling for laws to punish corporations and shift jobs overseas, reward corporations to keep jobs here.

If this is true I want to know the carrots and the sticks that you referred to earlier in the show. What giveaways did they get? What benefits, what gains?

If true, it's great. It's terrific. Let's see the details. I do think we have a right to check the details because sometimes Mr. Trump sometimes gets a little over his ski tips.

I think he's trying to distract from the appointments he's making. Today seems to be stocking his cabinet with Washington insiders.
