griff: the new hampshire primary just days away now as two of the top three gop candidates make their final pitches to voters in the granite state. former president trump set to hold a rally tonight, nikki haley making her rounds while ron desantis spends his weekend in south carolina with over a month to go before the primary there. welcome to "fox news live," i'm griff jenkins. one more hour, gillian, here we go. gillian: do you think we can do it? we'll give it a try. i'm gillian turner. primaries this tuesday in new hampshire, president biden though not on the ballot following a dispute between the dnc and the state. we've got fox news coverage on the ground in new hampshire with madison alworth, bryan llenas and alexis mcadams. alexis, kick it off for us. >> reporter: it is a cold day here in new hampshire, but people are still out on the ground getting ready for primary day and that includes the candidates still trying to gain support. for the former president, donald

trump, you don't have to look far to see he has a lot of support here. kind of the line in front of here, that's for the rally that doesn't start until 7:00 tonight, you guys. take a look here, you can also see that support in the latest polls in the state which we have been watching closely. it shows trump sitting at 53 percent, teally at 36% and ron desantis at 7 percent. this is a poll of republican primary voters in the state, and some voters tell me, hey, i don't even look at these polls. but donald trump sure does, saying his competitors have lost momentum. >> what happened to this guy? [laughter] one of the great self-destructions i think i've ever witnessed, steve. what do you -- [laughter] and she ain't doing too good either. she's down very low. we'll finish it off. this couldened it. -- could end it. if it's a big vote, it ends it. >> reporter: what do new hampshire voters or care about? the border. they want a president who can

handle the immigration issues. right now voters say they like trump's policies. >> i think he did very well on the border the first time. >> i think the president try his best when he was president to close the border. i think he knows his way around washington now, and he will get the job done. more than i think any of the other candidates could have. >> reporter: and nikki haley is also talking about the border, telling people that she has had strong border policies and will fix the immigration problem in the united states. she spent big money on attack ads here in new hampshire. every time i turn on the local tv, that's all we're seeing on the screen. and trump said with those attacks going on he's, quote, probably not going to pick nikki haley to be his vp, he doesn't think what she -- she has what it takes. and, bryan, how does she feel

about those ongoing attacks, bryan? >> reporter: hey, alexis. former above nikki haley says she's not running for vice president and certainly not running for second plaits. she's about to -- place. she's about to speak at an eventer behind me, she just wrapped up her first event of the day where she spoke to some 200 folks. now, over the last few days haley has been really focusing her attacks on former president donald trumping comparing him to president biden. she says both e men are too old to be president. trump is 77, biden is 81. haley turns 52 today. now, this morning haley implied trump is experiencing cognitive decline pointing out that at aap apoored to confuse haley with former house speaker nancy pelosi. [no audio]

>> look at the rally last night. and he blamed me for not allowing security at the capitol for january 6th. i wasn't anywhere -- can. neil: i think he meant nancy pelosi. >> no, but look at how many times he said it -- neil: he did repeat it. >> the same reason i want mental competency tests for people in congress. we need people at the top of their game. >> reporter: the daily tracking poll released this morning shows haley in second place. her support is at 35% while trump's lead in new hampshire has grown to 18 points. so is a second place finish enough for hally's campaign? if -- haley's campaign? according to the popular new hampshire governor chris sununu, it is. neil: but if she doesn't one, that's okay too? >> oh, absolutely. no, no, no, she can win, she doesn't have to win. the goal was always the make it a one-on-one race, right in trump-haley. that's what we've got. i wanted it one-on-one by super

tuesday. it's happening way sooner than that. >> reporter: as for south carolina, senator tim scott's endorsement of trump, sununu called it disrespectful considering that haley's the one that appointed scott to be the senator in south carolina when she was governor. and now over to my if colleague madison alworth who's covering the democratic primary. madison. >> reporter: thanks, bryan. so president biden is not only not in new hampshire, he's not on the ballot. this all happening after he destructed the dnc to make south carolina the first in the nation primary. new hampshire, which had held that title for a hundred year, did not comply. but that has not stopped his friends from hitting the granite state and stumping for him here. both boston mayor michelle wu and congressman ro khanna are here in new hampshire for a grassroots campaign called write in biden. the dnc has gone as far as to call the new hampshire primary, quote, meaningless which has led

them to be accused of vote iser suppression. when mayor wu was asked about that, here's what she had to say. >> look, these are issues that are decided at the national level by the dnc. i don't have, a seat on that committee to have had a say in anything related to that. i'm here in my capacity as someone who can testify to how important it is that we keep moving forward in the direction we've been going. >> reporter: the reason for the write-in campaign is because local democrats fear the optics of an incumbent president running for re-election and losing the state to a lesser known challenger. surrogates for the president don't believe that will be a problem despite the challenges that a write-in campaign faces. >> i know dean phillips, he's a colleague, i know marianne williamson. it's a free country, everyone can run. but being president of the united states is a serious obligation. >> reporter: some political analysts believe that this

write-in biden campaign needs to win by a big margin in order for this to be touted as a success. but supporters that we've spoken to say a win is a win even if it's by one point. gillian, i'll send it back to you. jill thank you, madison, there in nash what for us this afternoon. griff? griff: presidential candidate ron desantis is spending his weekend in the low country, in south carolina. rich edson is in myrtle beach now following if his campaign. hey, rich are. [inaudible conversations] [applause] >> reporter: hey, good afternoon, griff. you hear right now governor ron desantis is just wrapping up having taken questions for about a half hour from a number of different folks here and voters here in myrtle beach, south carolina. his opponents say his presence here in south carolina this weekend shows that he's just skipping new hampshire because he's got no chance there. the campaign says that's not the case, that he was there dallas evening and he plans to -- last

even evening and he plans to return there as well. this weekend's swing through the state is a way to pressure former south carolina governor nikki haley to win her home state and, if not, to just get out of the race. haley has maintained this is already a two-candidate race between her and the front-runner, former president trump. in myrtle beach desantis just knocked his opponents. >> if donald trump is running really for his issues, he's focusing on those issues that are personal to him. nikki haley's running on the donors' issues which is what are funding her campaign. i'm running on your issues and your families' issues. that's my agenda. [applause] can someone tell me major achievements of nikki haley when she was governor? anybody? ♪ ♪ >> reporter: the super pac backing desantis, never back down, is hosting the governor in south carolina this weekend. the super pac has been shedding

staff. after investing millions and months in iowa and finishing a distant second, an aide tells fox the desantis campaign is moving the majority of its staff here to south carolina. this afternoon desantis has more stops going near florence and columbia, the state capital where haley once governed the state. a desantis spokesperson says, quote, when nikki haley fails to win her home state, she'll be finished, and this'll be a two-person race. we're wasting no time in taking the fight directly to haley on her home turf. to this trip, a haley spokesperson says that they are welcoming the governor, governor desantis, to this state and say that he hopes he enjoys his vacation. griff? if. griff: clearly a little tom petty, won't back down, in the background. rich edson live from milter beach, thank you very much. gillian? gillian: for more on the ground from if snowy e new hampshire now, we are joined by one neil cavuto, anchor of "wore world

with -- your world with cavuto." neil, great interviews with the nominees all morning long, the candidates, excuse me. want to start here: you talked to governor ron desantis. he had an interesting take on last week and what went down there with the former president. take a listen to you. >> he's a de facto incumbent president that is the most famous person in politics, and so that was telling, that you had half the people roughly that opted for someone else. gillian: what did you make of that? >> well, bottom line, donald trump won. he got more than half the vote, and he won 98 of 99 counties. and the governor, for all his efforts -- and he put herculean efforts into the state, all 99 counties visiting each and every one -- and didn't win a single one. it is what it is. you can talk about low voter turnout, all of that. but donald trump won. he's significantly up in new hampshire as well. that could change as you guys

have been discussing, but the fact of the matter is, you know, moving to south carolina to fight there confuses a lot of people wondering what the strategy is. i guess he wants to eliminate nikki haley there in her home state where she was a two-term governor and then it's a two-man race. but to get to that math and to get to that type of a race, it would have to take a lot of dominoes falling at a exactly the same time. gillian: yeah. a lot of good luck, as you mentioned. >> yeah, right. gillian: while i have you, i want to make sure talk about the economy, some potentially good news for democrats, certainly for president biden, coming out this week. take a look at the polling. it tells us among republicans who were asked what is the most important issue facing the country today, only 16.5% of them said that is their number one issue. and then this poll on inflation, republicans were asked do you see inflation gown down and the -- going down and the

economy improving in your day-to-day life, nearly 29% of republican voters actually said, yes. now, more than 50%, 5 52.5% of them, said not. but i was taken with the fact that that many republicans think that the economy's headed in the right direction under president biden. >> well, you know, gillian, maybe owing to my age, i've been there, done that. this perception of an economy versus the real economy. gillian: yeah. >> and i can remember george herbert walker bush running for re-election against bill clinton, and his argument was as we were in a recession that we were coming out of it, the worst was behind us. ironically, he was proven bright. -- can right. in the fourth quarter of that year in 1992 we were, indeed, coming out of it. but the perception made him lose his bid for reelection. bill clinton comes in, things were improving and the economy was beginning to rocket. the only reason why i mention

that, gillian, is that the biden folks seem to think the improvement we're seeing in the economy -- it's not across the board. existing home sales are at a nearly three-decade low. still, there is more confidence, strong retail sales in general, people are still booking flights and booking vacation spots. that goes unaa baited. unabated. their balance sheets are good. the market just hit records, and they think that's the wind at their back and there's a delay, americans will get to see it. the difference between their recovery versus the george bush sr. recovery is the white house this time hopes that people have enough time to see it because we have another 10, 11 months total the election. the bush folks at the time had very little time to make that argument stick. that's their hail mary pass, but that's what they're sticking to. these numbers are beginning to be felt, americans are beginning to show that in some survey ises. not all a, as you pointed out, and it's hardly across the board, but that's how these things gain traction. they hope that there's the enough time to come to allow

americans to see it. we'll see. gillian: so you're going to being anchoring, covering this primary, first in the nation primary starting today, moving new monday and coverage tuesday. what are the key indicators that you're looking for on tuesday night, or neil? if -- neil? >> well, you know, we have the vantage point of looking at it through the perspective of business as well. and when we look at that in new york, one of the big things you hear is they think the economic trend is their friend. it's why the market's hitting records, why company are reporting, by and large, earnings and numbers that are better than expected, that people are still buying. that's the backdrop for a lot of people who may more attention to the federal reserve than they are the white house. probably for good reason. the fed has a a lot more to control things than does the white house. so one of the angles i want to focus on from a perch in new york is that that is what the big money guys are hoping on and investors or in general are praying for, that this

continues. the biden white house likes to believe that is what they're seeing and that is what they're buying, it can only help them. we shall see again. gillian: we shall see. i want to let you go back inside, but you're a pretty good interviewee, neil. we should do this again. >> it helps to have a good interview iser. by the way, i haven't complainedded once, i'm not a why were, but it's cold. gillian: we can tell. go back inside. thank you, neil. >> have fun. gillian: we'll be watching your coverage. griff: the i think the cold is afraid of kneel. the one and only, amazing neil if cavuto. fulton county district attorney fani willis is facing major backlash after a new court filing revealing the lead prosecutor in her georgia trump interference case bought flights her himself and -- for himself and willis are highlighting the relationship was not strictly a professional one.

madison scarpino is live in atlanta with the latest. >> reporter: hi, griff. these new relations are certainly making things a lot messier and more complicated for the d.a. and her special prosecutor. in court filingses on friday, the attorneys for wade's estranged wife provided credit card statements showing trips purchased for both wade and willis. now, there were flights to miami for the two of them in october 2022, flights to san francisco in their name in principle 2023 as well as -- april 2023 as well as cruises, hotel stays and flowers. the attorney for one of trump's co-defendants alleges that willis benefited from the money that wade is making from if fulton county. also on friday, the fulton county board of commissioners has launched an investigation into whether or not willis acted improperly when she hired wade. wade had filed for divorce in 2021, the day after he was appointed special prosecutor by the d.a. wade has earned upwards of $650,000 since he

started working on the case. >> this case is tainted from the start. it should never have been brought. it's all planned. it's election interference. the case should not stand, it should be completely wiped away and dismissed. >> reporter: and what happens next will be up to the judge overseeing the trump case. >> if these allegations are true, could lead to a whole host of things that the d.a. doesn't want to happen. she could be removed from the case, she could be held to have a conflict of interest, the case could potentially be dismissed if it's so structurally unsound. >> reporter: willis has been subpoenaed in wade's divorce case but says that she shouldn't have to be involved. there's a hearing on monday morning to make that decision. griff? griff: very interesting. madison scarpino, thank you very much. now, for more on the potential legal implications of this, kelly stimson joins us now, a former prosecutor and senior hell fellow at the

heritage foundation. culley, thanks for being here in studio with us. this is really getting ugly. and and as you -- as a madison so eloquently laid out there, here is fani willis, the d.a., accused of hiring her married lover as a prosecutor, paying him more than $650,000 and allegedly taking vacations with benefiting, perhaps, from some of that money. let's just go right to what everyone's thinking which is should she be recusing herself today? >> yes. she should have done it yesterday. i mean, there are numerous problems with the fact that she's on this case above and beyond what your colleagues just said. number one, she got post-covid money to clear out the backlog of cases, but she used that money to hire an outside prosecutor. that's number one. it was against the rules. number two, he didn't get permission to hire him as an outside prosecutor. she has prosecutors in her own office she could have used, but she didn't.

that was required by the rules. she -- he took actions in this case before he was sworn in, including indicting people before he was sworn in as a special prosecutor. that is bad. of course, we know about the trips and the amorous relationship. he's never tried a rico case, so he wasn't qualified in the first place. and, griff, honestly, any one of those reasons alone would be enough for any honest prosecutor to say is, you know what? i'm going to recuse myself. in the interest of justice, require it, perception of impartiality, we'll give it to another county and let them handle it. but when you add them up all together, this is an appellate lawyer's dream. even if this case goes to trial and she stays on and wade stays on and there's a conviction, this is appeal bonanza. griff: she, by the way, has not denied this affair. and the only really on camera we've seen of her was last weekend when she seemed to lob accusations of racism. watch here.

>> i appointed three special counsels as is my right, to paid them all the same hourly rate. they only attacked one. first thing they say, oh, she gonna play the race card now. but, no, guys, isn't it them who's playing the race card when they only question one? griff: so one prosecutor was a white woman, one was a white man. , obviously, black man was, of course, nathan wade. so let me ask you this: do you foresee that this case against trump could get thrown out because of it? >> i don't think it's going to go that far. at least in the short term because the judge is going to hold a hearing on the 15th of february. he's going to ask basic questions, the same five issues i brought up. was post-covid money used to hire this guy, did you get permission from the county to hire this guy, has this guy qualified? she mentions two other prosecutors, she wasn't sleeping

with them. that's not the issue. race is not the issue. who cares what she does in her private life. she's sleeping with subordinate who she hired who wasn't qualified, who wasn't sworn in. any one of those things could have that judge say, you know what? your office is recused. griff: it's going to be interested as this mays out. culley stimson, thanks for coming in. >> thanks, griff. gillian: coming up, a a whole hot of staffers over at "sports illustrated" suddenly find themselves out of a job. we'll get into it next. ♪ ♪ ♪ here's to getting better with age. here's to beating these two every thursday. help fuel today with boost high protein, complete nutrition you need... ...without the stuff you don't. so, here's to now. boost.

you. you're absolutely right. we are fed up. i'm a single father of a teenage daughter a little bit younger than kayla who was raped and murdered. is i'm a parent involved in this too. and we are tired of being held hostage in our own country. griff, dhs is the gatekeeper of that border. they owe a duty to protect citizens in this country. and when they catastrophically fail to do the most rudimentary measures, for example, lift up the shirt of this kid, what do they see? a gang-related tattoo. what does that mean? you're going back to el salvador. secondly, peck up the phone -- pick up the phone, make a phone call to the consulate. guess what? his name's on the list because he was a arrested in july of 2020 for being involved in illicit ms-13 gang in el salvador. had the border patrol done their job, he's gone, and kayla lives to get married, and kayla lives

to have a tide. a child. that's why we're filing this lawsuit. griff: and tragically, kay kayla did not live. tammy, ats risk of having you, explain to viewers who may not know this story, i was horrified as the father of two daughters to learn that kayla actually called for help, called her boyfriend. can you describe for our viewers sort of what happened in that moment? >> as soon as this many murder orer -- this murderer broke into her room, she was asleep. she always kept her bedroom door locked. he broke into her room and, of course, she was startled. she grab canned her phone -- grabbed her phone, and right when she grabbed her phone, this ms-13 gang member grabs one of her phone cords and wraps it --

tries to get her -- tries to wrap it around her neck but misses and gets it around her face. she's calling, it went to voicemail and somehow the phone was on the ground during the struggle, and he actually gets it around her neck and is choking her, and they are struggling. i have not heard this voicemail and i don't know if i ever can because i don't want to hear my daughter can struggling to breathe and struggling to live. and after he strangles her and he kills her, he rapes her and then he just leaves her on the floor like trash and then just goes -- [audio difficulty] if. griff: i don't know how any parent can bring themselves to listen to a voicemail as heart wrenching as that.

lawsuit. we're going to get answers, and our federal government has blood on its hands. unless we take a stand now, hold them accountable, get answers, then this is going to continue to happen. griff: last ten seconds, tammy. you hold secretary mayorkas for the murder of your daughter? >> yes. because if they would have done their job or he would have made sure they did their job, my daughter would still be alive today. living her life and being able to experience the rest of what adults are experiencing, getting married, having a baby. griff: and such a bright future tammy they'lls, brian claypool, thank you for coming on. please keep us posted on any development cans in this case, and hour thoughts and prayers -- our thoughts and prayers with you, tammy, and your family. >> thank you. gillian: coming up, house speaker mike johnson is battling it out with republicans inside his own party. we'll get into it next.
