voters head to caucus sites tonight. four republican candidates are hoping for their votes. you are watching "fox and friends," i'm carley shimkus. >> todd: the train is pulling out today and it ain't stopping until november 5th. donald trump, nikki haley, ron desantis and vivek ramaswamy spent the weekend making their final push. alexandria hoff has more. >> alexandria: 40 delegates are up for grabs. former president trump has not spent much time in state due to court dates. others are making up that ground. >> under crooked joe our country is dying, in a position it has

never been in. we will make america great again. >> i beat biden, according to "wall street journal" and others by 17 points. bring friends and family with you when you do it. i promise you our best days are yet to come. >> i'm running for your issues and your family's issues and to turn this country around. can we get this done? bring it home. >> if you do your parts, we will do our part to make sure not in a fake politician way, true way to make sure our country's best days are actually still ahead of us. >> alexandria: a lot of different personalities and not as simple as going to the polls in the hawkeye state people will

physically gather and votes are tallied on the spot. fewer than 200,000 usually participate. just yesterday senator marco rubio launched support not behind desantis but former president trump. he wrote on x, i support trump because we need extraordinary action to change what biden has done. in 2016 senator ted cruz beat trump by four points. >> carley: thank you to

alexandria hoff. bring in talk show host je stein. it is coldest caucus in hiftly and trump is up in the polls. you say we should be watching for three things tonight. tell us what they are? >> jeff: good to be with you. whether trump sets a record >> only twice has the winner passed 40%. he would only need 46% to set that record. i think the largest margin is 12 and he seems ready to shatter that. who finishes second? if ron desantis, he lives to fight another day. if he does not finish in second, what is his path forward,

particularly with nikki haley ahead in polls here and the other states. the third issue is vivek ramaswamy, he is really connecting with young people. can he get to double digits? if you don't reach double digits in iowa, i don't know your path forward. >> todd: does the weather affect one candidate more? >> it is cold, i lookad the temperature and it is 14 below, air temperature not with wind factored in. we're in iowa. we get this once or twice a year. if you had tickets to the super bowl, you would not skip it because it is chilly. you put on extra sweater and show up early. if it hurts any candidate it

might be nikki haley. people say they are solidly behind a candidate 80% of trump voters say they will not be moved. her support is not that strong. a lot of her sports is from independents and democrats who might switch over. those two groups mice be dissuaded as opposed to republicans. >> carley: ron desantis has endorsement of kim reynolds. despite all of the visiting, his poll numbers don't seem to reflect the payoff of all the work he's put in. what do you think about his future and what we are messengers be talking about

tomorrow? >> he did everything he was supposed to do. endorsement of a popular name. ted cruz rode that to victory in 2016 and mike huckabee in 2008. yet, more support he gets from establishment figures, less support he has in polls. his numbers continue to drop. he may have peeked too soon. if he is saying he'll do it is same as trump would do, with trump in the race, it is hard to be the trump alternative or successor and those things have hurt him. the play book gets thrown out when you talk about the former president. >> todd: 14 hours and 52 seconds to go. that is exact, i have a clock in sight. thank you for kicking off monday.

looking for a pro-life candidate who will take us to new stage. person that will receive my vote is pro-israel and pro-life. >> todd: jasmine which candidate is talking about issues that matter most to you? >> president donald trump has been talking about freedom of speech on college campuses, that is not protected for us and left leaning students are coddled by administrations and get to keep posters and chalk up and ours are torn down. president trump promises to combat gender ideology being indo indocket doctrinated. >> todd: these issues affect everybody, you are viewing

through the prism of being a young person in college. ian, border is number one according to many iowa caucus goers. listen. >> as soon as i take the oath of office, i will terminate every open border plsz of the biden administration. >> what is happening at the border, truly only thing i can say, this is dereliction of duty. >> i'm sick of republicans in washington with senators doing a border agreement basically caving on everything to democrats. >> todd: which of the candidate are best suited to fix our border? >> i'm a big donald trump fan. he start the wall and will finish the wall.

he has the backbone to get it done and fo us canned on immigrants coming into this country. people are bringing awful s substances into our country. >> todd: young people are accused of have are short -- spend a long amount of time in one of the caucuses? >> i absolutely can. it is because of issues you listed here, it is a problem and you have to be politically active in today's age. it is starting to effect everyone here. in new york, once was a sanctuary state, they are now saying they don't want them and realizing it is too much. and that we need to start having

more regulation at the border. iowa caucus goers know this and know issues are on the table today and know they have to get out to vote to get our country back. >> todd: same question, do you know people that want to exercise their democratic process? >> that is true. we might not get to have the country we have under donald trump anymore. we got to speak how we wanted to and had our rights protected with the constitution. our lives of our future children are on the line. everyone is realizing this and so frustrated with how terrible the biden administration is. >> todd: all eyes on the iowa

caucus tonight. twice as many nikki haley supporters say they would back joe biden if donald trump is not the candidate. mike huckabee will react. >> carley: interesting. and overseas houthi rebels attacking another ship. zach nunn will tell us how foreign plsz could factor into tonight's results. don't go anywhere.

an american fighter jet shot down antiship cruise missile launched toward the uss laboon. developments in the red sea come as israel marked 100 days since the october 7 massacre >> they joined to protest as president biden released a statement saying for each 100 days the hostageses have been at forefront of my mind working to secure their freedom. us forces operate inside gaza trying to find the hostages. there coulding more targeted

fighting. uncertainty comes as israel's northern front remains active. >> carley: trey yingst live in tel aviv. thank you so much. bring in iowa congressman zach nunn. congressman, good morning, no better time to talk about foreign policy than a day like today. the current man, president biden said something notable when it comes to iran. take a listen to what he said to a reporter, watch this. [indiscernible] -- >> carley: difficult to hear there. he in in face of houthi attacks he delivered a message privately

to iran. what do you think the private message was? >> if anything like we've seen, a lot of bluster and no action. during biden administration, iran has received 80 million in oil sales. i am on the financial services committee. houthis receive money from the guards corp, which funds missile systems and radars struck by british and u.s. forces. it is important we enforce the sanctions. we have people funding the iranian oil tankers and biden administration could stop it today.

iran financing terrorist groups. and certainly lebanon is a direct result of failure of leadership action to crack down and as you point out hundreds of strike on u.s. forces in the middle east. david albright said something scary. he said today iran would need only a week to produce their fi nuclear weapon and after five months of production could have enough for 12. is it too late to put the genie back in the bottle? >> no, strong u.s. leadership has ability to address this issue. we have to enforce sanction and have a strong military presence

and recognize iran is the source of the problem, not a secondary effect. if we want to address the issues, that is making sure ayatollah and folks in tehran know to stop this immediately and united states will hold them accountable in the region. >> carley: big day for your state, happy to talk to you on iowa caucus day. have you endorsed anybody? what is your thinking today? >> iowa gets to be the starting line, america gets to decide the next commander-in-chief. i am digging out of my driveway, it is standard monday in iowa going in to help pick the next commander-in-chief and it is important we have the opportunity to do what republicans do well, pick next

leader of the free world. issues get heard by candidates hearing from iowans. this is an important process of people coming together. >> todd: you have interesting memories of your grandfather and a lamb on caucus night that explains true grit of iowa. would you explain the story? >> we are sixth generation farm family. we delivered lambs on a cold caucus night and my grandfather was delivering a lamb. we expedited the birthing of the lamb and drove into town to be at caucus night. you get your job done and at 7:00 you are in the church

basement having a discussion how to lead the country. >> carley: that is a story i will never forget. thank you, we appreciate it. have a great day. >> todd: you said that, i was like, what? >> carley: got my attention. that is how important this process is. da fani willis addressing the improper relationship. wait until you hear what she has to say. >> todd: 33%, that is approximate president biden's latest approval rating. a deep dive into that number next.

california is struggling to recruit police officers. signing bonus $75,000 and not just alameda. take a look at the numbers. chicago 2400, l.a. 600, fephoen 500. as far as salaries alamedia, san francisco, san jose, seattle and fe phoenix. one officers you have to be able to afford to live there. >> this anti-police rhetoric, radical da's has been building up. i remember in occupied wall street 10 or 15 years ago this antisemitism police narrative has been being ush approximated.

color, it would not matter what i did, my motive,italents, ability and character would be constantly attacked. >> cheryl: she is the da, that brought charges gaej donald trump. she had an improper relationship with attorney nathan wade, she hired. >> todd: this is a big deal and a lot of attorneys are saying this could blowup this case. so far she has seemed cocky about her case. close to the end, the playoffs, it is blowing up in her face. remind you of anything? >> cheryl: dallas cowboys last night. >> todd: i worked on that. sorry, cheryl casone, required to do that. >> cheryl: anybody heard from will cain? >> todd: we are checking on will

cain and lawrence. >> carley: giving them time to sleep. only one third of u.s. adult approve of the job president biden is doing. that is a record low over 15 years and some democrats still brushing it off. our poll this morning has biden approval rating at 33%. >> this battle has not been joined yet, you have maga republicans espousing things that are not good. joe biden has proved he is standing up for families and rights people view as fundamental. >> todd: america first's stacey washington join us now.

this poll is an out liar, but how can all the polls be out liars >> they can't. i would love to see that commentator show up at the local s snook's, the local grocery store. people are paying $1.89 that used to cost $.89 a can. and move to steaks, that is what americans are used to eating. i wonder where he is living? people are not lying about wanting $2 a gallon of gas.

cost of number is exoesh tent. i am here for what my eyes and wallet show me about what it is like to live under the biden administration. it does cause us to take a pause when it is extra trip or something extra we are paying for to reevaluate if that is necessary or in the budget. trump is running again. biden should be looking at ways to shore up the economy, shut down the border. instead of all this lying. >> carley: has approval on the economy is 31%. senator bernie sanders said something has to change within the biden administration. he says it will be hard for most

americans to be excited about what is going on in the world. it is bernie sanders. he is calling for the president to take on more progressive plsz and change his stance on the israel-hamas war. does the president listen? >> that is like your doctor saying how is that treatment working out? it is not working. let's keep it up. nothing has improved and he is like double down on this thing. i don't think that is what americans want. bernie sanders does not have much room, look at mayor eric adams when he started complaining about the budget deficit, they launched an investigation into him, clear message to shuts up and tow the line. americans have to vote about

whether or not they have illegal aliens shuping down schools, whether they want remote learning, whether democrats will be good to them. these are decisions people have to make. i am saying this as someone who joins you on "fox and friends," how do you compare that to three years ago? >> todd: stacey washington, have a great iowa election day. mike huckabee knows a thing or two about the iowa caucuses since he won in 2008. >> carley: and lawrence is having breakfast with voters. >> lawrence: that is what you call a tease, you set me up. we are at lucky's diner. come attend. we are talking about who voters

hello, colonial penn? ♪ >> todd: it's election day in iowa where caucus goers will gather at 7:00 p.m. eastern time to vote for their preferred republican presidential nominee. >> we got to do it. do it big. you got to get out. you can't sit home. if you are sick as a dog, you say, darling, i got to -- >> you aree speak your mind at every step of the way. and with your help tomorrow night, that is what we will revive. >> i know you're excited. i'm excited because it's been 11 month and it comes down to tomorrow. >> i don't know what the overall turnout is requesting to be. obviously i think the weather is going to impact it but i think our folks are turning out. >> former arkansas governor mike huckabee won the 2008 g.o.p. iowa caucus and he joins us now. governor, good morning to you. congratulations on your 2008 win.

but we wanted to talk to you about that because the year that you won mitt romney came in second place and the eventual nominee john mccain came in 4th. an interesting nugget here since 1972, only three caucus winners have gone on to become president. so the question this morning is how much does iowa caucus really matter? >> well, carley, i think a lot of people need to understand that the caucus winner is probably not the real story. the story is who are the caucus losers. because, what iowa does more than it catapults a person to the presidency it, actually starts eliminating people in the demolition derby called the primary. and so there are going to be some people who probably will not get out of iowa. not because of the snow, but because of the lack of votes which means the lack of funds going forward. so, if you look back through those caucuses, whether it's 08, 12, 16, what it truly means is

look for the people who are lower than their expectations. those are. so people they may still limp onto the next new hampshire, south carolina, but, for some candidates, it's over tonight. and that's going to be the story. >> todd: you just focused on the bottom of the losers to use a horrible phrase but it makes the most sense here. i want to focus at the top of the losers, second place. how does the second place winner in iowa capitalize on that second place finish and, again, the reason i'm focused on second by all indications it does look like trump is going to be the winner tonight. >> well, we don't know what the weather will do. it could cause some people to stay home, and we don't know whose voters stay home. trump voters tend to be so committed, so very animated about it that they will show up no matter what if they have to swim through banks of snow. but i think the question is does nikki haley eclipse ron desantis for second place, if she does,

that's "the big story." ron desantis has put basically all his chips on the table for iowa. he hasn't spent much time in new hampshire. he has built his expectations in iowa. he has focused his time there all of his resources had been there in terms of money. if he doesn't come in second, i don't see how he goes forward because he is going to have a hard time convincing people that he has momentum. so far his momentum has gone downward, not upward. that's not just in iowa. that's across the board. this is a big test for ron desantis. nikki haley is stronger in new hampshire. she comes out of iowa in second and then she goes on to new hampshire, i don't think she necessarily wins there. but she will compete more adequately than anybody else. and then it gets down to south carolina. so, again, this is about who is number two. you know, that normally is not the thing. it's like asking the dallas cowboys hey, how did that feel in the locker room last night? well, not very good.

>> todd: huckabee has been watching the show. >> look, i'm a cowboys fan. i love the cowboys. i'm in pain this morning over it. >> carley: you and a lot of the country. they do have a lot of supporters who are very, very sad this morning. speaking of this morning, you have been through this process before, it's a lot of work. what do you think the candidates are thinking right now? where do you think they are mentally? >> well, you just hope that the candidates aren't sitting in a warm tub of water with razor blades thinking about what happens if they don't do well. honestly, people don't understand as hard as it is to get into a presidential race the only thing harder is the decision to get out. you have invested in your life in many cases. your family has been all in. your friends. you've asked donors to help you. and to walk away from to say i can't go on, it is the tougherrest decision in politics. and people who have never been there, will never understand

that. so, when i see somebody bowing out, i know the agony and the shear just sense of hurt that goes into that. and i look that there will be that happening tonight. and i feel for those people who have to make that decision. >> todd: that's a real interesting perspective. that's a great question. we focus on these individuals much like we focus on the athletes like they are not real people. these are real people with real families and have to make these decisions not just the vacuum we put them in but contest of friends and family. again, let me offer congratulations to 2008 as well and not congrats laptions on the cowboys.
