obama, larry summers has been talking about inflation for months and a lot of people worry when you take an inflationary overheated economy and you have $3 trillion which is what these 2 billion bills would do, 3 trillion in government spending you will make it worse and there's a lot of economic experts that say pass or not pass it, inflation will continue well into 2022. >> let's break this down, long-term and short-term, that is definitely true 17 nobel prize-winning a economist are those that we talked about doing things to allow americans to get back to work, putting money in their pockets and making childcare more affordable will help with inflation in the long run, there is a short-term transitory the ones that we are already seeing slow down a little bit but very mindful because that's impacting americans. that is a consequence of the economic effects of the pandemic. there are so many things that are happening in our economy, distortion, disruption, things in our supply chain that are affecting crisis, a clearly direct consequence of the pandemic which is why the best thing

remind everyone on the panel barack obama and bill clinton lost midterms and both came back to be elected. this white house needs to regroup, reset and call on congress to pass the legislation in front of them. >> bret: you know i said last note to martha eventually because of this win that glenn youngkin was going to be whispered about the presidency at some point. i just didn't know it was going to happen wednesday with the panel. ben, your thoughts. >> we follow your lead, bret. >> i think when it comes to what harold is saying there, there is a lot of truth to it. one thing clear forever the democratic coalition going forward you cannot continue agenda when we lose the an election america is racist. somehow yesterday america proved that it was racist again or something like that. glenn youngkin was smart enough to run take arrows for it and reject it we will find he was rewarded by hispanic voters, by asian voters, by other voter continues in virginia that made the difference for him ultimately. we cannot continue this kind of race-based agenda that create the hierarchy for children i

the, about culture work with barack obama in virginia using plan youngkin, raising these issues, that was on top of a lot of between criticism including terry mcauliffe thing glenn youngkin was running a race campaign from the lincoln project as a white supremacist and i think this james was leading to ridiculous things in los angeles. larry elder, african-american radio commentator hailed as a candidate white supremacy. same thing in virginia, the, first african-american woman to win a statewide office, she's hailed as an advocate for white supremacy. it shows more they don't have an argument and they want to bully people into silence and i think the public is responding. i think most of the public that saw the mcdonald's ceo statement would have the reaction that monai and kim had talking about responsibility and also saying you can't say that and i think most people sympathize with that and they see the people bully offstage. paul: kim, any signs the democrats will move off of this? >> the fact that they are actively saying we are not really engaged in critical race theory and oh,

joe falls asleep and apologizeds just like his idol barack obama for america. he has no clue his own state department is planning on playing illegal immigrants $450,000 each. he goes back again to beg opec and russia to produce more oil. joe, all you have to do is ask texas, alaska, north dakota, oklahoma. they will be more than happy to accommodate. the bottom line is democrats, who are they hurting? the poor and the middle-class. i thought nobody was going to pay a penny more if they made under $400,000 a year. nope. the people bearing the brunt of these policy are the poor and the middle class. for democrats political power is the only thing that matters. here is a fox news contributor and a fox nation host. you have followed everything in afghanistan. you followed everything on the border. we are watching the high price of gasoline and watching joe biden beg opec. and never mind foreign policy. joe didn't know about the $450,000 payments to illegals. i only see two members of the democratic party, joe manchin and krysten sinema and i will add james carville

barack obama and michelle get ready to depart washington and get on marine-1. did you speak to them since then? >> well, not much. initiately right after i took office i did. one or two times. i spoke to them before taking office. that's a ritual. it was 15 minutes and it ended up being quite a bit long tore put it mildy.e it was an interesting conversation. he told me about north korea and the problems and that was the greatest problem we and i to it a large extent solved it. we got along great with north korea after the rough first patch but then they understood we were not playing games and we got along great. not very much.e >> sean: you once told me that you thought we were on a path towards war with north korea? >> i did and so did president obama and that would have been a nuclear war. we met in singapore and in vietnam. we had great meetings and we established a great relationship. i liked him and he liked me. we had some interesting conversations. >> sean: we got back the remains of our soldiers. >> we did. >> sean: i was at both summits. he stopped th

obama because they were delivering a progressive liberal policy or great america-first policy. that's where we are at in the environment and it's very bad for joe biden. >> sean: and i guess the moment that bill clinton, i got to be the emcee the night he became speaker. i've been at this too long. it was an incredible night for the first time in 40 years republicans won and after that historic win a guy by the name bill clinton decided it was time to change course and he said the end of welfare as we know it. with this radical group of new green deal socialists and joe biden i don't really think is calling the shots i don't see that possibility. do you. [ chuckles ] . >> absolutely, not. >> sean: was it a joke. >> yeah, they think it is. no there's not a chance in the world. the democratic party that used to be an extra centerist party is dead. you have no legs left. you have the woke democrats who have taken control of the party and it's just moved to left. and on top of that the incompetence that we've seen. as you went through the monologue it occurred to me we have a presi

we all put out the stops when the vice president, the president to barack obama, and i think glenn youngkin hit on a number of virginia voters when he very delicately navigated the waters with donald trump and really focused and said, i don't need to bring anybody in. that was clearly a message that resonated with some of the swing voters that dan and i have been talking about, and i think he actually effectively use that message to counter some of the big democrats coming in as a way to answer the question of whether donald trump should campaign with them out on the campaign trail across the commonwealth. so that will obviously take some deeper digging, as we think through messaging and republicans have to have some soul-searching. where they go as a party, despite the victory as it was clear victory for glenn youngkin in the commonwealth. he did it without donald trump for the most part. obviously he called in last minute and try to do some tweets and stuff like that through statements from his office, but he was not on the campaign trail and glenn was able to pull this out, that's an int

obama because they were delivering either a progressive liberal policy or a great america first policy. that's where were at this environment is very bad for joe biden. i guess the moment that bill clinton when newt gingrich i go to be the emcee that he became speaker. i've been at it long. i was at the emcee that night pretty incredible night for the first time in 40 years and afte that when historic went with th newt gingrich contract with america a guy by the name of bill clinton decided it was tim to change course. he said things like the era of big government. the end of welfare as we know it . with this radical group of new green deal socialists in joe biden i don't really think is calling the shots, i don't see that possibility, do you?th >> absolutely not. >> was it a joke? >> they think it is. there's not a chance in the world that party is dead. the democratic party that used to be somewhat centrist welfare reform he has no legs left. you have the woke democrats the progressive yodemocrats taking control of the party. it's just moved to left. and on top of that the incompeten

the house held eric holder, the attorney general for barack obama and contempt in the obama administration and obama justice department refused to prosecute that case. there is politics all over these cases. >> sure, i do think, you already alluded to this in your earlier conversation. what happens with bannon may be different than others. bannon was not there, he was not in the white house. he talked about this on air video before. there is no way to make the executive privilege claim whether or not others are successful that will play out whether or not you're indifferent, that will play out but this sends a very strong message that they're not playing around and that they want to get to the truth. this is unprecedented it is going to be treated as such. chris: were talking about the reasons of the banning cases but there is talk in washington concerning that it could open up a dangerous precedent in seeing the willingness of the biden administration to go after steve bannon and potentially to go after people with a stronger case like the white house chief of staff mark meadows that this

but americans are going to feel it and i hope they wake up and realize that barack obama said something that was really true, elections have consequences, and the one in 2020 has had some very severe consequences for american families. >> sean: kellyanne, is there any capacity you see with biden and harris, the administration, democrats, to reverse course on any of these major issues? because i don't see it. >> sean, only if they start listening to some of the outside advisors who don't have skin in the game, and their skin in the game is external -- james carville saying listen, -- but it's a battle between the progressives, so-called progressives who voted against biden's big package. i think you reverse course when you admit mistakes and they are still in the "but trump" mode. and that doesn't work anymore, terry mcauliffe proved that. a year after last year's election, people know that biden and harris should be made to own and eat all of these failures, but they're really out of stop and out of sync with where america wants our policies to be, and they're making a huge mistake in t

obama. he's tried p to make this a national campaign for whatever reason, i don't specifically know why. and you have pretty much stuck to local issues, state issues that impact everyday lives. i got to imagine that that's probably what has resulted in the surge. how do you explain these poll numbers that have now shifted in the last number of weeks dramatically in your favor? >> well, we've been focusing on the issues most important to virginians, low taxes, schools that deliver for our children, safe communities,el a growing jb market versus a stalled out one and oh, by the way, a government that will work for us and not tell us what to do all the time. and virginians have embraced this platform. it's been amazing, across the country we've been hearing from families inningg stand up for us too, virginia, because we don't get to vote this year, we have the same problems that you have. these kitchen table issues, this is what america is focused on yoright now. our website is blowing up. peop

trump did more than 50 in the same time and barack obama or than 100. now, we get to the papers real gripe about biden, he's not set for interviews with the associated press, "new york times", reuters, washington post, "wall street journal" or "usa today", how day-- how dare he. biden doesn't stir things up on his twitter feed and the conventional wisdom is that his aides don't want the boss wandering off script or making mistakes. whether that is true or not his low-key approach , you know what dealing with the press is part of the job. i'm howard kurtz and this is "media buzz". ♪♪ howard: ahead, kyle rittenhouse rips the media's sickening coverage of his trial we will talk to brian kiilmeade about that and abc jonathan karl on his interview with trump about the last year of his presidency. and the media complains about jen psaki says president biden takes more questions than his recent predecessor, just not and press conferences and hear some of the brief exchanges he has had with reporters or not in the last couple of weeks >> us mean that all th

bush hundred 20006, and he said there had been a thumping of this party and barack obama percent in 2010, there had been a shellacking but present biden deflected these questions whether or not he was responsible pretty. reporter: we're just talking about the importance of the white house press corps, that room being full of people who are able to ask tough questions is somewhat scandalous and that the only questions about this usually important border policy will only ask by peter ducey and david - and there should be dozens of reporters asking these tough instead of what we suffer people like is like what can we do to help the democratic party going forward pretty. >> they did asked do you bear personal responsibility and present biden said well yes fix it whenever and so just sort of well i don't know the infrastructure built it would help or not. >> i don't thank you so much on the part of present vitamin there also have not been the same type of tenacious question asking and asking a question without tough follow-up is not really that notable is really only one instance in the entir

joe biden mentioned trump, kamala harris, barack obama came in. none of that is working anymore. the democratic party itself has lost touch with the people. they're selling something that nobody wants to buy. they're out of touch with the people and they have this out of control spending. the problem with the democrats to point out in that article is not that they didn't pass the legislation is that americans and virginiians found out what is in the legislation. they don't want it -- sean, one last thing. if the whole ticket is carried tonight, you'll have the first woman of color ever elected statewide in virginia. she's a republican. that's big news. let's see if she gets on the cover of the fashion magazines. it's not why she's there. look what happened with kamala harris. we don't know where she is and what she's in charge of. she's very ineffective vice president. you see a woman of color as a republican tonight winning statewide in the commonwealth of virginia. that is big news moving forward to 2022. >> sean: great analysis. scott brown, you had a similar situation in 2009

in they brought in barack obama, stacey abrams and it doesn't seem to have moved the needle. now, maybe we will find out that it did. that they brought out all these blue voters that wouldn't come. looks like a race between the candidates. glenn youngkin attached himself to real bread and butter issues. literal bread and butter issue 2.5% tax on groceries, education which is now the top issue. i would but the it this way, i think if glenn youngkin doesn't win, in this environment, facing a bad candidate with a lot of breaks that have gone his way it's hard for me to see any republican winning statewide in virginia. i think it will just be a blue state. >> bret: that's exactly right if that's what turns out. here are some sound about expectations tonight. >> i think virginia is a very important canary in a coal mine. biden has handed control much the agenda over to the radicals over the bernie sanders and aoc and elizabeth warren and i think people are horrified. i think virginia is aspect of that. >> there is a comfort level with terry that's positive. the little dynamic in t
