10:04 am
you're thinking about the former -- about the president joe biden or from -- former president ultra. (202) 748-8001, republicans. (202) 748-8000, democrats. (202) 748-8002 independents. when it comes to plans that either man is making, the story from the washington post highlight president biden has been -- a reelection timetable. may have flooded battleground states. under the bidens team leadership, for contested
10:05 am
nomination fight. this story said the goal would be -- determined to carry the party base. donald trump, he at 76 years old. when it comes to president trump not saying whether he would run for office or not. it was during an event in nashville that he alluded to it. you can still see it on our website at c-span.org if you're interested. making his first public appearances the committee investigation in january 6. president trump lashed out the -- lashed out at the committee and teased his plan.
10:06 am
[video clip] trump: most people should not be treated the way they have been treated. if i become president someday, if i decide to do it i will be looking at them very seriously. [applause] should i decide to do that. host: on the phone lines, if you want to let us know what you think as far as for reelection of president of the united states. let's start with robert in arkansas. hello. good morning. caller: good morning. i don't think trump should run for sure. he wants to be a dictator. he praises and talks about everybody else.
10:07 am
all he talked about is his self. all the people who support him are mostly rich people or poor people. the people going to be hurt most are their children and grandchildren. be careful what you wish for. host: as far as the current president, joe biden, should he make another run for office as well. caller: i am not sure about him. she could only do with the center allows him to do. the congress will pass something, senate blocks it. be careful what you wish for. host: you are not sure as far as a reelection effort, why is that, specifically? caller: it is so much hatred going on for the democratic party. every time a democrat gets in power, they do things to help people.
10:08 am
a republican gets in, they do things to help the wealthy. host: that is robert in arkansas giving his thoughts there. let's hear from -- in newport. caller: former president donald trump. host: you are saying he should run for president of the united states? caller: oh, yes. host: why is that? caller: -- host: if the president decided to hold off from running again, who would you like to see? caller: i do not know at this point. host: jim in virginia.
10:09 am
let's turn to carl in massachusetts on our line for the independents. caller: good morning. i don't think either one of them should run. i am slightly younger than joe biden and i know i am not the same man i was even five years ago, mentally or physically. he is clearly too old. there are exceptional people that can be sharp as a tack into their 90's, but not in his case. trump is just, he will turn on his own people. i don't see how people can follow him. he is out for himself.
10:10 am
host: if biden decided to run and trump held off, who would you like to see if either of their places? caller: i used to support bernie sanders but he became kind of a disappointment to. he is an older man, too. he has still got it together i think. people are different. maybe they should consider a limit. 75 years or whatever, running for the presidency or something. i am not sure. biden definitely shouldn't run. i definitely don't want to see trump. host: that is carl in massachusetts with the topic of age. coming up on fox news yesterday, credit representative support against president biden leading
10:11 am
up to the election. when asked about the age of the current president, if that should be a factor in the reelection, here is jim clyburn from yesterday. [video clip] >> is a card logically a thing to talk about? the individual determines what is too old, not the candidate. you talk about joe biden at his age, he is 15 years younger. >> we are talking about the environment can change. if you look through history, bill clinton and even after the republican wave, he came back years later and got reelected by comfortable margins.
10:12 am
he was flexible. he could see which way it was going and in his case, get in front of it. there is skepticism joe biden can do the same thing. do you think he can? >> a lot of people called me and told me i was crazy for defending joe biden. who was the crazy one? you will sell yourself short if you sell joe biden short. host: that is represented in clyburn from fox news yesterday. thoughts on whether president biden or former president trump should run for office in 2024.
10:13 am
in pennsylvania, crystal coupled morning. -- crystal, hello. caller: i could never vote for it be republican, especially trump trump stole the economy from obama and did absolutely nothing. if i had to choose one, if biden didn't win -- if diving -- if biden didn't run, i like katie porter. trump lies every single day. didn't we get enough of him? i hope he goes to prison. host: when it comes to joe biden
10:14 am
himself, what do you think about this age factor that some people talk about? caller: my father was old and i thought he was the smartest man alive to be. age doesn't mean anything to me. if you are sharp, you know what you are doing, if you don't lie to the american people, if you show compassion. i happen to like biden. he doesn't do everything i wish she would do. the voting rights. all that is disappointing to be as an african-american. however, if you ran against trump, he has my vote 1000%. and i would get out there and do everything i can do to get him elected. host: that is crystal in pennsylvania. another person from pennsylvania in newcastle on the republican line. caller: good morning.
10:15 am
thanks for taking my call. definitely for president trump. he did so much for us while he was in office. if you look around, what is going on and you can see how we have declined since biden has gone in. get out there and vote and pray that trump, he is a smart businessman who could get us back on track again, but we have to get him back in. i want to thank you very much for taking my call. host: if i may ask, do you think the events they are highlighting at the hearing on january 6, if president trump tried to make a reelection campaign, do you think that is going to be a factor of what people are looking at? caller: i have been watching that too.
10:16 am
i do believe there were some bad apples there. and they need to be punished. they have no business going in there and doing what they did. however, i don't believe all of those people were there for the wrong reasons. none of them should ever have ran into that building. they should have stayed outside. host: you don't think that would impact president trump if he makes another run for office? caller: no. not at all. people can see what is going on. our country is in such disarray right now. we pay five dollars for a gallon of gas. you go to the grocery store and everything has gone up a dollar, and dollar and a half. at the border, they are bringing in all these people. who is going to feed them and take care of them? this is a disgrace. host: in pennsylvania.
10:17 am
speaking of the january 6 hearing, today's hearing, you can see on c-span. dan roethlisberger went toe to toe with former secretary of state. the committee will use testimony by another election official to overturn the election despite knowing impart violence against state and local officials. that is to wash -- at the washington times, we have been showing you these hearings uninterrupted on our network. you have a chance to watch it today if you wish. to grade six hearing holding that public hearing. you can see that at 1:00 this afternoon. start time, c-span three is where you can watch it. on our app and at c-span.org.
10:18 am
10:19 am
i would lose my vote if either one of them ran. i wouldn't vote for either one of them. host: if either one of those men are of interest to you right now? caller: i think senator chaining -- senator cheney from wyoming would be a wonderful candidate. i am an independent but i don't see any reason why i wouldn't vote for her. host: what is the main reason why you would vote for her. ? caller: she has character. she is impartial. host: let's hear from carol in new jersey. on the democrats line. caller: good morning.
10:20 am
i think neither one should be in. i think there should be term limits. the president is only eight years. i think congress should have term limits. mitch mcconnell should be gone. and i think we should have younger people in. if it came to voting in 24, i would vote for biden again. i cannot see trump's ideas. i saw what he did in new jersey with the casinos. there's no way i could vote for him. host: you started with second neither man came your entrance -- your interest. would you do that reluctantly or wholeheartedly? caller: kind of reluctant vliet -- kind of reluctantly. i think the young people should get there. it is there country.
10:21 am
as seen years, we have accomplished what we need to accomplish and we need to turn it over to a younger generation. host: who will you like to see in the younger generation referent president? caller: i don't really know, to be honest. i think we need new blood in there. host: let's turn to fort lauderdale, florida on the republican line. hello. caller: good morning. i will go trump all the way. if you give me a moment i will tell you why. this january 6 against him, if you think back at the time that they were counting the electors, there were republicans disputing certain things in their county. then, they had people come in to
10:22 am
the capital. the capitol police are the ones that unlocked the gate, unlocked the door and let a group of people into that building first. put everybody in lockdown, the people that disputed it probably -- while they were locked down by the democratic party. host: why would you give president trump another run? caller: since day one, people have been stabbing him in the back because they did not want the truth exposed. trump got elected, not to change things, he got elected to expose corruption. he knew the only way you get people out of office is for american people to see the truth that is happening. every body were the same people
10:23 am
that set russia collusion, which was a lie. host: if president trump didn't make another run at the election in 2024, who would you like to see do so? caller: roddy sanchez. in 2022 in november, if the republicans take over the house and the senate, a great idea would be to get rid of nancy pelosi and put trump in as speaker of the house. host: republicans keeping a weary eye on the former president. distracting mozer's -- distract voters from president joe biden -- the republicans are anxious.
10:24 am
10:25 am
republicans, (202) 748-8001. democrats, (202) 748-8000. independents, (202) 748-8002. caller: thanks for letting me get through the line. i am an old man. i am 65 years old. i voted for trump in 2016. i voted for biden in 2020. it will be good for america and the world if both of these guys gave it a rest. maybe retire, maybe they can travel the world. maybe they can get their own television show. host: is age a specific factor or are there other reasons? caller: maybe we can get a
10:26 am
governor in there. senators, representatives are called the inside. the capital behind you there. senators and representatives from washington dc. maybe somebody who is not a professional politician should run for president. host: you said you supported president trump previously and then president biden. why the switch? caller: after about three or four years, donald trump contend to get about -- contend to get a little adolescent. that is why i wanted a democrat nomination. when i went to the pole, i voted for biden. host: dwight in minnesota there. let's hear from another.
10:27 am
daytona beach, republican line. caller:hi, this is cheryl. thanks for taking my call. biden is going to go down. he is destroying this economy and people think he cares about him. trump, it was his policies. it wasn't the man, it was his policies. he worked more for this country than any president i can think of. i have been following politics first 40 something years. i would rather see two new people come in. if you think liz cheney is a great person, she is a war hawk and a bitter woman. the more they run those hearings, the more trump ratings go up and bidens go down. host: you said it was president
10:28 am
trump's policy, what policy specifically? caller: strong defense, close borders, law & order, more money in your pocket. i had more money in my pocket, more money every year. i didn't pay five bucks a gallon for gas and six for a carton of exit. we had no new wars started. peace in the middle east were up. they will go down in history as a big deal. he was a strong supporter of israel which is various important -- which is very important to me. he did what he said he was going to do. and he did it on behalf of the american people. host: that is cheryl there in florida. she mentioned john desantis. if you go to the website there, a profile of the governor of florida. if you want to read it for
10:29 am
yourself in full context later, the more sanders because of rudy, the more people say he might take on president biden. she was very close to making a decision on whether to run. former president trump still has a solid advantage. if you want to see more of that, you can read it online. let's hear from carolyn on text -- carolyn in texas caller: good morning and thank you for taking my call. i really don't understand why washington journal is posing this question this morning. morning.
10:30 am
reason i'm saying that, with all the information that is coming out in the january 6 hearing, to me, it shouldn't even be a consideration, whether or not donald trump is going to run for president. he shouldn't be allowed to run for president will stop it is so obvious that trump at the very least instigated this insurrection, and combined with the fact that he didn't raise a hand to try and stop anything. not to mention he keeps lying about having won the last presidential election. i'm with the other caller, the previous caller that said by 2024, trump should be in jail. host:host: what about president biden? would you give him another chance in office? caller: i'm not sure about president biden.
10:31 am
not because he hasn't done well. i am pleased with his performance so far, president biden's performance, but my only concern is he is getting older. my preference would be that someone a little bit younger would win that election but yeah. trump should not be allowed to run. if he is allowed to run, there is something seriously wrong with the laws and the constitution. host: dr. president biden, you mentioned age. is it a performance issue, as far as his ability to be resident? is that a concern? caller: maybe. he's a little slow and i am pleased with his performance over all, but we are talking about a couple years from now, maybe a little bit longer and we
10:32 am
are all getting older. i think the constitution should be amended to say past a certain age, people shouldn't be allowed to run for president. but no shame on president biden. i want to keep reiterating, i think he has done well. host: who is a younger democratic candidate that should run? caller: i don't know. host: we will continue on for the next half hour on the line, and you can call in (202)-748-8001 for republicans. democrats, (202)-748-8000. democrat -- independents, (202)-748-8002. the issue of age is the -- when it comes to president biden, the headline, breaking the biden age taboo. the president is down in the
10:33 am
polls and his low approval rating may cost democrats control congress in november. the problem can't be the party ideas. . the problem has to be mr. biden, suddenly not up to the burden of the oval office that has aged even younger men. you must have to feel sorry for him. more of that if you want to read that in the wall street journal. donna is in missouri, republican line. caller: am i on? host: you're on, make sure you are not listening to your television and keep talking into your phone. caller: ok. on the question, i would vote for president trump. i am really tired of hearing about all the bad stuff that president trump has done when
10:34 am
he's done so much for this country, and in my town, gas was under two dollars a gallon before joe biden came in and with the stroke of a pen and got rid of the keystone pipeline and cost thousands of jobs right there alone. he is just ridiculous. he is not competent at all. joe biden has got to go. host: why would you give president trump another chance? what is it about his candidacy or his former performance that you would support? caller: i support president trump in everything he does. he moved to the embassy back to jerusalem. no president has ever been able to do that. none in history. he has done everything that he said he was going to do.
10:35 am
he did, and more. people may not like him. that is like the january hearing thing. they don't even have any republicans on the committee, except two rhinos that are nothing but democrats. they are republicans with democrat values and all they do is sit and lie. host: those january 6 hearings, the next one today, 1:00 is the start time if you want to watch it on c-span3. you can also follow along on the c-span now at and watch it on the c-span website. this is from mao, texas, democrats line -- am a, texas, democrats line -- emma, texas, democrat line. caller: hello.
10:36 am
personally i think donald trump should be in prison by then, and i think joe biden is just a little bit too old. what do host: you mean by that host: -- host: what do you mean by that? caller: we need a younger person in. like people are saying, they should put an age limit on the presidency, around 70. host: as far as age is concerned, do you think that is impacting president biden now? caller: not really, but for another four years, i would like to see somebody younger. as for donald trump, he should not even be on the ballot, nowhere.
10:37 am
he should be in prison. donald trump tries to run this country like he runs his family. he wants it to be like putin. and his family. host: let's go to atlanta, georgia. republican line. caller: hello. my position is if donald trump winds up being the nominee, i will vote for him. i think biden is a clear and present danger to america. he is not up for the job. i hope we don't have any more crises. you asked the question, who should run, somebody younger. i would hope that nikki haley would run because she has both executive experience and international experience. somebody her age and experience
10:38 am
would be welcome. if trump happens to be the nominee, i will vote for him again. host: because you brought up age, is age an automatic factor in your consideration for a president running for office? i know you said you would vote for trump again, but his age something you think of first? caller: i think donald trump has mental acuity and his age does not matter. it is time to hand things off to a younger generation. if it turns out somebody other than trump, i would hope it would be nikki haley but trump is very strong. if he is the nominee, i will vote for him again. he did a great job last time. people are trying to find a legal way to block him which is not going to happen. we will see what happens three
10:39 am
or four years from now. i think trump is going to be the nominee and he will wind up winning again, unless they figure out a way -- get a candidate that can compete with him. host: one of the people on the sunday shows was michigan republican, fred upton. he was asked about the republican party and if he thought that the party itself would back another trump candidacy for office. here are some of his thoughts. [video clip] >> i have said from the beginning, i think donald trump is going to be a candidate in 2024. the voters still like him a lot. we have seen that in michigan. he's had a number of decisive wins, where he has endorsed candidates and they won. he's had a few losses as well, but he certainly entertains a majority of the republican base
10:40 am
and he will be hard to stop and as we look at the economy and gas prices and different things, folks are not really happy with the biden administration, which is why he is mired at a level below even where donald trump was at this point in his tenure. >> what does it say to you, about your party that even after what we have seen over the last week, that you say is pretty damming, that republican voters still might make him the nominee if he does run? >> it was a close election. it was close in 2016, certainly close in 2020. you've got the base voters who are really upset that it didn't go their way, and they are loyal as can be. host: some of you responding by text. richard from florida saying our national debt is the biggest problem facing the country and will result in a change in world order. net of the current president or
10:41 am
former president trump the political courage to take it on. dave from annapolis saying i am retired and on a fixed income. things can't be any worse except for stagflation. can't wait to vote republican. marcy in kansas, saying i am a republican but my family, country and countrymen will always come before republicans. if there was a race between president biden and trump, president biden would most definitely get my vote, adding the words character counts. if you want to text us, you can do so at (202)-748-8003. let's hear from john in milwaukee, independent line. caller: hello. there is no way on this earth that i would ever vote for trump. in the four years he spent in office, it was daily misery. endless whining, lying,
10:42 am
corruption, ripping off his donors, january 6. i don't care what the republican voters think. there is no way this guy deserves to be in office. the people that say he should be in jail are correct. host: and president biden? would you support if he made another run for office? caller: my vote would go against trump. if biden is running, i vote for biden just so my vote didn't go to trump. it is pointless putting that guy back in office. host: let's hear from donald in arizona, line for democrats. caller: good morning. i would never vote for trump again. i voted for him, but i knew
10:43 am
shortly after that i made a mistake. i don't think either one of them should run again. who i would like to see is elizabeth warren. she is smart, she is younger. i think she would be a good president. host: what is it specifically about senator warren or her policies that you would support her presidency? caller: she's got a lot of energy. she doesn't mind saying what she's got on her mind. if you don't like her, then -- but i think she would give these republicans a run for their money. i think joe biden is getting a little slow in his old age and trump is such a crook. i've been watching these hearings and i don't know how any republican could vote for
10:44 am
him, that nutcase. host: when you say president biden is getting slow, what do you mean by that? caller: you can tell in his demeanor, the way he moves, the way he speaks. he used to be a smart guy when he was younger. i think he would have made a good president a long time ago. he is just getting too old. host: that is donald in arizona on the line for democrats. other news when it comes to congress. representative greg pence, brother of former president mike pence is recovering after undergoing a heart procedure over the weekend. his office announced over the weekend that he had a procedure after experiencing minor chest discomfort. he is expected to make a full recovery and is quoted as saying, i want to remind everyone to seek medical attention when you aren't feeling well. cardiac care cannot wait. doing nothing is civilly not an option, adding that he is thankful to the doctors, nurses and staff at the hospital for their proactive attention.
10:45 am
brenda from georgia, republican line. caller: yes. i would vote for trump any day. they talk about putting trump in jail, what about putting biden and his son in jail? they are covering all this up. groceries was down, gas prices were down. i would vote for trump again. host: what other specific reasons would you give trump another term in office? caller: because he is a good president and he is truthful. he's always told the truth. host: independent line, this is bob in petersburg, virginia. you are next. caller: good morning. i agree with a lot of people calling in that mr. biden has gotten too old to run again. i hope he gets through these
10:46 am
four years without any more trouble. i think a good conservative would be ripped -- mitt romney. i hope people realize he is a decent man. i think he may be the top person. donald trump, if they don't put him in jail like they should, and the rest of the ones still hanging on to him, it's going to be a civil war. it's not going to be an election in 2024. host: we saw senator romney make a run for office in years past. why do you think he has the potential to become president? caller: i think then, it was a different thing. trump came up like a fireball and people did not look at him and see what kind of a rotten person he was, all his life before he became president. if they had, he wouldn't have gotten elected.
10:47 am
independents like myself voted him in. there was a reason why he got in. a lot of decent republicans out there know that he committed -- tried to commit treason, and the rest of them are still trying to do it. that is why i think -- i hope this country does not go to war with each other. we are divided and people are always talking down. host: that is petersburg, virginia, bob. the hill highlighting another poll when it comes to people -- 58% of voters said they were open to supporting a moderate president of candidate in a contest between president trump and biden. it also said the survey found a majority of voters said they didn't want either to run in 2024. 63 percent of respondents said
10:48 am
they didn't want president biden to run for a second term. only 37% said they did. adding that 55% of respondents said they did not want president trump to run again. 45% said they thought he should run again. the man who conducted the survey said america wants to move forward and not back and if they are faced with a trump-biden choice, it'll be an unprecedented opportunity for an independent candidate to run and win, adding i've never seen a number this time for an independent run. our next caller in massachusetts, democrats line. caller: yes, i would like to say that i would like to see anthony blinken in office. i think he has made a very excellent secretary of state, and he has a background. i also like elizabeth warren, but people seem to want someone in office who is attractive to them, and just someone they
10:49 am
could have a beer with or something, someone who is actually dedicated and looks to the details is the person i would like to see running this country, not someone i would like to just have as a friend. host: as far as the current president, do you think you should make another run? caller: i would prefer that he doesn't. however, i don't think it is a good idea for him to say right now, that he is not running. i think that makes him a president who doesn't have much influence. host: why do you think it is not a good idea for him to make another run? caller: i think that he is a little older, but i know it is
10:50 am
difficult to get someone in office who isn't that well known. i know antony blinken is not that well known even though he is the secretary of state. most people don't know he is the secretary of state. i know you have to have someone very popular, but the popularity is based on something like a tv show is not the way to select a president. host: ok. going to florida, this is al on our independent line. caller: good morning. thank you for letting me:. -- thank you for letting me call in. i don't think we need trump or biden to go in for reelection and here's why. do we really want to play the record over again if trump gets in?
10:51 am
yes he has that a lot of great things, but then you get all the disrespect. it is not presidential. you've got biden, and i'm sorry, i think something is wrong with him because he constantly messes up on speeches. he does a lot of rhetoric. i don't think the country is going the way that they wanted it to go, so i think new blood, maybe some people who don't have such dark pasts with all of this going on between bidens and trumps and all the crazy business deals that everybody has done. i think we need new blood, that somebody can come in and say, he seems like a decent person. desantis/pence may not be a bad thought. warren/buttigieg may not be a
10:52 am
bad idea. host: would you put the current vice president in the mix? caller: yes, absolutely. why not? i don't think she has been very effective. however i don't think she has done anything horribly bad either. if they could find a decent ticket with decent people, why not? if somebody else a chance. let's let the country try to heal and bring every together. when trump was in, family members wouldn't even eat dinner with each other. this country keeps dividing. host: you made that point, thank you for the call. this is from a viewer on twitter, saying that the u.s. needs somebody who can bring new ideas, and that has not been in d.c. for decades.
10:53 am
tony says on twitter, both are 2 -- both are too old and trump has been made radioactive by his actions and the campaign. brian in massachusetts, tweeting us as well, saying no, they both need to go away. if you want to post things on twitter, @cspanwj is how you do that, also on facebook. janice in san diego, california, republican line. caller: good morning. i am flabbergasted when i heard that caller said she picks joe biden -- thanks joe biden is doing a very good job. unbelievable. everybody is calling in, talking about how trump is such a crook, and one of the other callers said she would never vote for trump because of what he did with the casino. i find it absolutely
10:54 am
unbelievable what short memories they have of biden's historic crime bill, and how they are so forgiving of all of joe biden's crimes, past and present with his son, but all we can talk about his trump. as far as voting for joe biden, never in a million years what i vote for somebody who can't even stand up half the time. host: i'm assuming you would vote for president trump again if he decided to run. why is that? caller: i would vote for trump because trump said what he meant and he meant what he said, he got the job done and with all of that russia faked garbage, he still got more done than any president in my lifetime. like the other caller said, we all had more money. life was grand when trump was in office. he got on my nerves sometimes with his adolescent behavior but the one thing people kept ignoring is that we didn't vote
