7:47 am
-- they never endorsed any president -- all three endorsed hillary rodham clinton. she would have been the best president this country ever had. let me make my final points and i will be out of the way soon. the thing of it is, our constitution was violated by this president. he violated the emoluments clause, all the things, look what happened in the middle east . america turned its back on the kurds. we turned our back on global warming and look at what is happening all over the world right now. remind c-span leaders to

7:50 am
there is commonsense that enters into this program and when you listen to president trump, he is like a strong man walking into a chicken coop and the chickens scatter and this is what democrats are doing, scattering everywhere and they don't know where to come back to. host: that speech was in lexington last night and you can find that and all of our coverage of the 2020 campaign at c-span.org. the president set to be in mississippi on wednesday. getting your thoughts as we are one way -- one year away from the presidential election. who is your candidate? what are your top issues? 202-748-8000 for democrats. 202-748-8001 for publicans. and for independents, that is 202-748-8002. democrats, republicans equally engaged in 2020 election, their polling a year before the election, roughly 7 in 10
