in bipartisan with money going to marco rubio, jeb bush and hill -- hillary clinton. >> nicole: the republican party would suffer wholesale losses if cruz is the nominee. dole called the texas senator and extremist and questioned allegiance to the party. he says nobody even likes him. donald trump would probably be able to work with congress because he is a deal maker. >> lauren: another republican presidential candidate chris christie on your world with niel cavuto sharing thoughts on rescuing banks.

federal government should not bail out big financial institutions. >> i think they had their one rescue. they should have learned their lessons from what happened in 2008 and as president i would not be looking to rescue these banks. the fact is we have gone through this once before. it cost the american people hundreds of billions of dollars. >> lauren: vetoed a package in atlantic city, it has failed in five years to get finances in order. >> nicole: jeb bush releasing new ad targeting front runner donald trump. >> with almost all of the vote now we can project that hillary clinton will win. i'm watching hillary clinton receive the victory tonight. they look at donald trump as the greatest gift from heaven, an easy person to beat in the general election and then she will become the next president of the united states.
