Criticized; Anti-Democratic Agitators; President-Elect Trump - Part 2>
Goolsbee, Doug Schoen, Mercedes Schlapp, Kimberley Guilfoyle, Charles Hurt>
HANNITY: Ari?
GOOLSBEE: I just think you know him and he respects you.
ARI FLEISCHER, FORMER WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY: You let's cut to the chase here. All of this comes down to the central issue of our times which is economic growth and the lack therefore in the last eight years. If President Trump can put into place provisions for corporate tax reform, individual tax reform, and policies that get economic growth revved up, it solves all the problems, Sean, you were raising about, interest rates, about the deficit, about the debt, about revenues. All of this is tied to growth. And this has been the failure of the Obama years. It's what led to so much dissatisfaction among working class people because they haven't gotten raises. Economic growth is the corner stone of it all. This is what the Trump presidency will rise or fall upon.
HANNITY: You know what? I totally agree.
GOOLSBEE: I agree with that.
HANNITY: That's why the lower tax rate, first of all, will go from seven to three. The lower corporate tax rate will incentivize corporations to build factories, manufacturing centers, the one-time 10 percent tax on trillions.
FLEISCHER: Repatriation.
HANNITY: Overseas, repatriation, that will be a boon to the economy. And one more factor, energy independence. If we had a goal of energy independence in four years, include the Keystone pipeline, drilling, fracking and coal mining, millions of jobs could be created almost immediately. I know that poor Austan Goolsbee won't like it, but the rest of America will.
GOOLSBEE: Look, if those work, then that would be great. All I would caution, and he respects you, Sean, and I want you to talk to him. If he just is going to propose the things that George W. Bush proposed when he came into office, the growth slowdown is not -- did not start with Obama. It started with Bush.
FLEISCHER: It started with Clinton.
(CROSSTALK)
FLEISCHER: No, no, no, Austan. The growth slowdown started in the summer of 2000 as you know. George Bush inherited a mild recession. September 11th turned into even worse economy, and the economy boomed from 2003 to 2007 as the Bush tax cuts took place.
GOOLSBEE: It barely a bond and followed by the worst downturn in our lifetime.
FLEISCHER: Absolutely wrong.
(CROSSTALK)
HANNITY: We've got to let it go there, guys. The Community Reinvestment Act definitely played a part in hurting the economy, and Bush paid the price.
GOOLSBEE: Sean, no, no, no.
HANNITY: Yes. Yes. You can't lend money to people that can't afford to pay it back, Austan unless you can pay it back.
GOOLSBEE: We can agree on growth.
HANNITY: Good to see you both.
Up next, tonight on HANNITY.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
JACKIE IBANEZ, FOX NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Live from America's news headquarters I'm Jackie Ibanez.

I'm Jackie Ibanez. Now back to HANNITY. For all of your headlines, log on to FOXnews.com.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
TRUMP: A Trump administration will also secure and defend the borders of the United States.
(APPLAUSE)
TRUMP: And, yes, we will build a great wall. And, yes, Mexico will pay for the wall. They're going to pay for the wall.
CROWD: Build the wall! Build the wall! Build the wall!
(END VIDEO CLIP)
HANNITY: That was president-elect Donald Trump earlier this week promising America and the American people he would build a wall with Mexico. How fast can that happen? Here with reaction, FOX News contributor Mercedes Schlapp and former Clinton pollster, FOX News contributor, in the end he couldn't pull the lea lever for Hillary, Doug Schoen. How are you?
DOUG SCHOEN, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: I'm very good, Sean.
HANNITY: It's one thing to run. To me it's simple. You make a checklist. Supreme Court, refugees, cutting taxes, corporate rates, repatriation, build the wall, eliminate Obamacare, health savings accounts, education back to the states, energy independence. You make your list and just start checking off what you promise.
SCHOEN: Right. He has got to do two things. Be true to his base, which is exactly what you say, implement the agenda, but most of all create jobs, lower taxes, promote economic growth, and put working people who went out on a limb for him as I did myself when I distanced myself from the Clintons, he has got to let them know that he has got their back and he's working to create jobs.
HANNITY: Energy independence, Mercedes, stopping the competition for jobs, building that wall would be a part of it, but energy independence, I think, is a huge component, potentially millions of jobs, added bonus, national security, but also those tax cuts and repatriation and Obamacare being eliminated. Those are three huge component to economic success in my mind.
MERCEDES SCHLAPP, "WASHINGTON TIMES": Absolutely. I think you are going to see that obviously immigration and healthcare are going to be two of the top priorities that now you will have Congress and the president working together to get this done. But I think the tax reform component is incredibly important when you look at the fact that if you can lower the corporate tax to that 15 percent where the companies can feel that they have once again can invest in America, where the capital -- their capital is not all tied up. And also the fact if you're cutting those regulations which we know has strangled so many businesses and so many small businesses. If you unleash that potential in terms of the business productivity and be able to bring in more Americans to work --
HANNITY: It would be huge.
SCHLAPP: -- I think it's huge. I think it's incredibly beneficial.
HANNITY: When the wall starts getting built, is the left going to go insane?
SCHOEN: Look, there are parts of the agenda, parts, I underscore, that the left can support, which is to restrict immigration and build and provide ways to do that. The left also can support an infrastructure program, tax reform for repatriation, getting rid of the carried interest.
HANNITY: Do you think they will support that?
SCHOEN: They should if they are smart. If they go to Keith Ellison, if they go hard left, it could be the end of the Democratic Party as we know it and could be for me.
HANNITY: OK, Mercedes, last word?
SCHLAPP: You have to remember, Sean, I think where you can find common ground with the Democrats, actually with the Elizabeth Warren faction, is on trade, the fact that TPP will be dead under President Trump.
HANNITY: That's a good point.
SCHLAPP: The fact is that the Republicans might not feel too comfortable with that. But it does allow Trump to have the edge of saying, look, we're going to renegotiate these trade deals and it's going to be to benefit the America American worker.
HANNITY: Real quick, I have got to let you go. Listen, Mercedes, you and Matt might now be invited back to the parties again. I wish you luck.
SCHLAPP: The most important thing is that the American people won, Sean. That's all we care about.
HANNITY: We have a chance to fix this mess.
SCHLAPP: Absolutely.
SCHOEN: Democrats can come with part of this to make this really a great country.
HANNITY: I'm not counting on that, but we'll see.
SCHOEN: I'm going to say it's got to happen.
HANNITY: I agree with that.
SCHOEN: It's good for America.
HANNITY: It would be good for America.
And when we come back, Hollywood celebrities are in complete, full on meltdown load because Donald Trump will be the next president. They need to pull it together. We'll try and help them. Kimberly Guilfoyle and Charlie Hurt and more as HANNITY continues.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
HANNITY: And welcome back to HANNITY. So on Tuesday, you, the voters chose president-elect Donald Trump to be the next leader of the free world, and American celebrities are not taking it too well and they need our help. Watch this.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: The message I want to spread out to other women is exactly what they're saying is not to give up. Sorry, I want to move to Spain. I really, really want to move to Spain right now. And everyone in my office is like, you have a responsibility and a voice. You need to use it.
(APPLAUSE)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I was excited yesterday, and I was really sad for her. My mom's name happens to be Hillary.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I still think that in her lifetime she deserves to be the first female president. And that's what makes me so sad is that I just wish that she had an opportunity because she's fought so long.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
HANNITY: And so while Chelsea Handler, Seth Myers, Miley Cyrus is crying. According to the "New York Daily News" Cher, Madonna, Mark Ruffalo actually took to the streets with fellow anti-democratic disrupters to protest the election results. Then of course Cher previously stated that she would leave the planet if Trump was elected. I hope she now has a spaceship available.
Joining us now with reaction, from "The Washington Times," FOX News contributor Charlie Hurt, and the co-host of the hit show "THE FIVE" Kimberly Guilfoyle. I am willing to pay, charter a plane for these celebrities in a way that they're accustomed.
KIMBERLY GUILFOYLE, CO-HOST, "THE FIVE": You're not even saying first class. You're saying charter a plane. What about Cher's spaceship?
HANNITY: I can't get a space ship. And I'll put on champagne and caviar and steak. But I have one stipulation. You have to agree not to come back. If they come back, they have to pay me four times what I paid.
GUILFOYLE: One way. It's so silly. What is wrong with these people? Honestly there are things to cry about and be upset about -- losing a loved one, getting a cancer diagnosis. When I see Miley Cyrus crying, busted up over in tears over this, I want to be like, silly girl, maybe there are Flintstone vitamins that you can take to help alleviate your suffering. I don't even know what to say about it. It's sad.
HANNITY: There is this one Trump guy, supporter, this is really funny, because he's kind of trying to help out these people that are suffering. And this is what it does. Watch.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: To all of the Trump haters, all of the Hillary Clinton supporters, all of the people that said that my Trump was going to lose, so I say to you, this morning, the day after the election --
(LAUGHTER)
(END VIDEO CLIP)
HANNITY: That is the greatest laugh, ever. Charlie, what is your reaction to all the madness?
CHARLES HURT, POLITICAL COLUMNIST, "WASHINGTON TIMES": You have to admit as much as I love a Donald Trump campaign appearance, that montage you played at the beginning was every bit as entertaining as any Trump rally I've ever been to.
On a serious note, though, why is it, obviously they're deluded and they're very self-conscious about the fact that they're deluded people and they don't really produce anything of any value to society, but why is it that they're always talking about going to Canada. Why don't they move to Mexico? Why don't they move to Guatemala? Is it because they want to go to a whiter place? Are they racist?
HANNITY: That's a good point. By the way, I don't think Canada wants Lena Dunham.
GUILFOYLE: They're going to build a wall.
HANNITY: People have been asking me, you probably feel great. I do, but it's not, I feel more relief that there is an opportunity, a huge opportunity here to fix the country. And I call it the forgotten man election, because I think so many people out of work, so many people in poverty, food stamps, they can't buy a house. That to me is what this election is about. What I don't understand is how the left after eight years of Obama can't see how bad he made things.
GUILFOYLE: Right, but you know what is so scary here is that I'm having a moment because Michael Moore agrees with you. He said the same thing. This is about when you punish and burden the middle class, then you take away what people really value most which is being able to provide for families, to have some stability and certainty for the future. When you strip them and their table bare at their home --
HANNITY: Then why can't you say what is so obvious, that Obama failed?
HURT: Because he doesn't care about those people. He doesn't know them anymore. He is as out of touch as anybody. He likes to pretend he's in touch with those people, but he's not. He doesn't know any of them. He doesn't talk to them or think about their problems.
But the thing about the extraordinary opportunity that Donald Trump has today reminds me of, you know, I didn't agree with Barack Obama. But when he first won his first election in 08, it was a stunning moment in this country. And he did have an extraordinary opportunity, and he had Democrats in Congress. And he could have done so much. He could have talked with authority unlike any president before him. He blew it. Every single thing he could have done he ruined.
HANNITY: Donald Trump will undo on day one, much of that agenda because he felt he could usurp the powers of Congress, use executive order, and so too can Donald Trump undo all of that.
GUILFOYLE: Right. But the call for unity came in the final and last year of President Barack Obama's presidency where all of a sudden he wants to unify because Donald Trump is there and he knows this is the guy that's now at the wheel of Obama's legacy bus and is driving it and is going to determine what stays and what will go.
But we've already seen for all the people who are hysterical out there and breathing into brown paper bags and hyperventilating is that, hey, guys, president-elect Donald Trump is willing to listen and do the best practices and put the best and brightest people in and make sure that we do have good quality health care and he's willing to keep certain aspects that in fact would benefit people across the country.
HANNITY: I don't think there is a good aspect to Obamacare, though, for the record.
GUILFOYLE: I know, Sean. I'm going to be making a Miley Cyrus crying video.
(LAUGHTER)
HANNITY: Yes, exactly.
HURT: Sean, there are going to be some tough things along those lines for conservatives. There's no doubt about it.
HANNITY: It's good to see you all. When we come back, we need your help on what has been a historic week with a very important "Question of the Day." That's next.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
HANNITY: Welcome back to HANNITY. Time for the "Question of the Day." Who would you like to see in the Trump administration? Who would you like to see him surround himself with? Just go to Facebook.com/SeanHannity, @SeanHannity on Twitter.
And before we go, we want to wish all of our veterans a happy veterans day and we want to thank you for your sacrifice, for your service. What a week it's been, very historic.
That's all the time we have left for this evening. Hope you have a great weekend. We'll see you back here on Monday.
