parenthood. should the government shut them down and defund the group and why are republicans incapable of getting that done? "hannity" starts right here, right now. welcome to "hannity." so we are just two day ace with a from the very first 2016 republican debate that will air right here live on the fox news channel. and carl cameron has the latest. now we know who they are. >> shawn, it's been weeks of speculation and bare knuckle scrambling among the candidates. we finally know what the two rosters will have. there's no surprise for some candidates. donald trump has been leading the polls for a couple of weeks. so he was a virtual lock to get into this race. jeb bush and scott walker, are the only other candidates who have been consistently in double digits. walker has slipped a bit in some recent polls. now mike huckabee and ben carson have been steadily in the middle of the top ten, often even tied. usually just right over about halfway, six, seven points a piece. ted cruz, marco rubio, rand paul, and chris christie, have been shifting around in the single digits.

now we know the tenth slot. there has been a heck of a battle for this. it goes to john kasich. a lot of these candidates are virtually tied with one another given the polls' margins of error. kasich it's quite an achievement kasich announced three weeks ago tonight. he shot from the back of the pack to the top ten. the debate of his home state of ohio the nation's premier bellwether state. he could have a good cheering section. donald trump is not only leading national polls. he's also ahead in the first two primary state, new hampshire and south carolina. voters in those states have been paying more attention than the rest of the country, shep -- sean. >> you can call me shep. that's fine. shep, sean, same thing. how are the candidates preparing for this debate? what are they doing? >> they're all different. they all have different sorts of superstitions as well as practice strategies.

to give you an idea bush aides say he has been intensively looking at the homework. the other guy, donald trump folks, say he's pretty much going to wing it. for those taking part in the 5:00 p.m. debate on thursday, there could be several up sides. millions are going to watch. some of them might be referenced in the evening debate or reaired in primetime. realistically, for carly fiorina, the only woman in a tough field and a clinton critic, she is going to make news on her own. rick santorum and rick perry came up short in 2012. they have a lot to prove. so woman fob thilt -- watch for them to be feisty. you have bobby jindal and lindsey graham, they've been working hard and are capable of making news. face it, donald trump will not be in the 5:00 p.m. event they don't have to worry about getting overshadowed by him. sean? >> ed henry -- oh i'm sorry. carl cameron on the campaign trail. thanks, carl. >> you bet. >> joining us now fox legal analyst peter johnson jr., the

co-host of "outnumbered" and michael cohen is with us. here are the numbers, latest four polls, 26% trump, 26% trump. 24% trump. 21% trump. that was the bloomberg poll i don't think bloomberg likes him. those are pretty outstanding, significant numbers. >> i can't argue with you on that. center stage, which is where he belongs. >> what about donald trump? he made some comments on "fox & friends" about it's good to be a little nervous. he's not used to debating, he's not a politician. are we to interpret that that he's not preparing? >> absolutely not. donald trump has been preparing for this basically his whole life. he's an avid reader. he studies everything. he's not going in with the strategy that the other republicans are. they're coming in with scripted answers. he's going to be himself. being himself is what has given him the 26 26, 24, and 21 numbers. that's what people want to see. >> authenticity. >> authenticity.

>> it's interesting. he always makes news. gawker gives out trump's phone number. this is how trump responds. he put a message on the phone. >> this is donald trump. and i'm running for the presidency of the united states of america. with your help and support, together we can make america truly great again. visit me at twitter @real donald trump and check out my campaign website at www.donaldtrump.com. hope to see you on the campaign trail. we're going to do it. >> the mail box is full and cannot accept any messages at this time. goodbye. >> the only thing missing was the art of the deal. he didn't mention his best-selling business book. that was funny. humor works. >> or the golf courses or all the skyscrapers. we already know about that. >> who is smarter than donald trump? >> it was a smart play. >> this is really smart. instead you get lindsey graham goes ahead, lights his cell phone on fire which is not good for the environment. smashes it with a bat and sword

and turns around and walks way from the number. trump -- this is the mentality of donald trump. this is why he's the greatest negotiator on the planet. >> peter, i like the donald trump that gave out lindsey graham's phone number. >> sure. >> and the one that put that message up versus say the mccain fight. thoughts? >> no one likes the mccain fight. i think in the end donald trump doesn't like the mccain fight. and i think he made amends. he said he was a hero as he should have. people like the idea of ingenuity. they like the idea of creativity they like the idea of going off script especially when the script has wound up in tragic proportions on a stage that we don't want to be on at this point. if donald trump can say i want to excite the american electorate and make america great again that will succeed or not. it will be a rare event in american politics. >> a big question, this will be the most watched debate. my prediction.

i think everyone is going to watch in part because of trump. which trump will show up? the trump that has been attacking some of his republican opponents or a donald trump talking about substance, maybe being more presidential? here's how he attacked some of the candidates leading up to thursday's debate. >> they don't even like him. they're from south carolina, he's from south carolina. they don't like him. >> marco rubio. >> i think he's an overrated guy. i think that i have much better hair than he does. >> rick perry. he did a lousy job on the border. when he was governor of texas, what a horrible job he did. worse than him is jeb bush. jeb bush is a disaster in so many different ways. >> carly fiorina. >> again, i don't know her. i never met her. she looks very nice. but she got fired viciously at hewlett-packard. i don't mean like a little bit. business is my game. >> would that be smart in this debate, andrea? >> i think it would be very foolish for donald trump to change who he is at this point because it's not believable. he's winning because he's authentic and doesn't spit out

canned poll talking points. for any pundit to sit and say that one, he should change or he will change is extremely naive. >> isn't there is a razor edge between trump being trump which i think is smart and -- doesn't the american people want to see him be presidential? isn't that going to be an important component. >> it depends. we saw other candidates like mitt romney go out of his way to be presidential. and for some reason, that meant stiff. i want to point out why donald trump is winning. the gop base wants someone who is fight and win. look at mccain. remember when mccain suspended his campaign and remember mitt romney wouldn't take on president obama for obamacare? the gop base is sick and tired of mealy mouth -- >> i want to get peter's take on this. do you agree with me? i think trump has to be trump. i don't think he could be anything other than trump. but to go in there and attack i don't know if that's the right

strategy in that environment. >> he has to be both. he has to show people who he is. he is a thoughtful guy that has a lot of ideas. and if you look at him in long forms, he's exposed a lot of those ideas. he does need to be presidential and talk about policies and programs. and a trump vision for america. >> on the other side peter, what do the other candidates do? how do they deal with this? if you attack trump -- >> let me give you the answer. they sit there and listen because trump is presidential. he's presidential. he is the look. he is the intelligence. he has the thought process in terms of what's needed to make america great again. that's what you said, though. he is presidential. and what he's going to do is he's going to -- he appeals to middle america. he's going to show -- >> what if he goes after -- some the candidates like -- >> absolutely not. if they come after him, it's going to be lights out. it's totally fair game. >> that's what i would agree with.

>> there has to be mutual respect in this debate. the candidates need to show each other respect. right, andrea? at the same time, they need to say we welcome an outsider to the process. >> who is more likely to take on trump? who do you think it is? >> i think people who have nothing to lose. the lowest ones who barely made it on to the stage who need to get out there who may not have campaign coffers filled with money. i do think he needs to be care. about not getting mired in the details. peter, you know the way the debates go. you only have a minute. jeb bush likes to talk like an economists. he can't do that. he needs to be presidential. but not in the since of being too stiff. >> a lot of this is a razor's edge. >> i don't think anybody is going to take on mr. trump at this upcoming debate. >> i think they'll gang up on him. >> i don't think so. >> i think -- >> i'll be very honest with you. i think they want to try to show themselves as being presidential. >> i agree.

>> and i think what is going to end up happening is they know if they come after him, he's coming back twice as hard. >> good to see you all. >> good to see you. >> thank you. coming up next on this busy news night here on "hannity." >> they're bringing drugs. they're bringing crime. they're rapists and some, i assume are good people. but i speak to border guards. and they tell us, what we're getting. >> donald trump has single handedly made illegal immigration a key issue on the campaign trail. how big a topic will it be on thursday? we'll check out with ann coulter and hugh hewitt. and later tonight here on "hannity" -- >> i never forgave him for hugging obama. >> it was just a hug. >> i can't let it go. >> pollster frank luntz is back to share what new hampshire voters think of the republican candidate. that and much more straight ahead. for paying on time. and then one day you tap the bumper of a station wagon. no big deal... until your insurance company jacks up your rates. you freak out. what good is having insurance if you get punished for using it? hey insurance companies,

welcome back to "hannity." we're only two days way from the first republican presidential debate. one of the topics certain to take center stage is immigration. donald trump has made this a big issue and talking point on the campaign trail. here are some of the comments he's made since launching his presidential bid. >> when mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. they're not sending you. they're not sending you. they're sending people that have lots of problems. they're bringing drugs. they're bringing crime. they're rapists. and some, i assume, are good people. i've been told by so many hispanics, mr. trump, thank you, sir, thank you. you've done the right thing. i'm from a country. hispanic. i'm from such and such a country. we don't want illegals coming in. i love mexico. i tell everybody. and i love the mexican people. i've said it 100 times. nobody ever says it. nobody ever reports it. that's the problem.

i love the mexican people. i love the spirit of the mexican people. there's a huge problem with the illegals coming through. in this section it's a problem. in some sections it's a massive problem. you have to create, you have to make the people that come in, they have to be legal. very simple. >> last night c-span voters first forum which donald trump did not attend some of the 2016 republican candidates were asked about their stance on immigration. let's take a look. >> the real issue for news this country today is what is happening all across our great land. and that is the cost that illegal immigration is having on this state. and until we get that border secure, it's not going to stop. it's like a serious wound. you want to staunch the flow. and that's not what's happening. >> i don't think this administration is serious about border security or protecting working men and women. in the last 20 years, 35 million people have come into this country legally and illegally. that can be a good thing or a bad thing. >> the border needs to be secured.

there needs to be a expanded guest worker program so people can move in and out and support their family, but do it in a legal way. >> i believe there is a reasonable way to address the fact you have 12 million people that are illegally here. who have been here for a long time. they will have to pass a background check and pay a fine and start paying taxes. they will have to learn english. then in exchange for that what they will get is a work permit. >> joining us now, number one "new york times" best sell issing author "adios america", ann coulter is back. the queen of epic ambition of hillary and the second coming of the clinton era, radio talk show host, hugh hewitt. all right. this for you, is become -- i would almost argue border line your obsession. you think this is the defining issue of our time. obviously. donald trump has proven it's a big issue. the candidates talked about it a lot last night. why so important? >> because it decides every

other issue. listening to the candidates, i see why trump is dominating the polls. we've heard this for 30 years from politicians. americans keep telling pollsters no we want less immigration, no immigration, stop with the immigration. do something about illegals. they always talk about securing the border when they need our vote. and then rick perry passed in state tuition for illegals and says you don't have a heart if you disagree. chris christie, the same thing. marco rubio runs against amnesty. when he was running as a tea party candidate in florida, he gets to washington and spends three years pushing amnesty. jeb bush is calling it an act of love. when they want our votes it's the way they take. trump looks like he means it and could do something about it. the republican party, they act like dave bratt never happened. he didn't take out eric cantor. you have all the elites aligned against the men people immigration.

the democratic party want the vote. >> the republicans -- >> they want cheap labor. >> is wisely pointing out these are all beholden to the campaign donors. >> ann's right. they do promise 700 miles of fence. i think they built 30 miles by the time all was said and done. they make the promise even in the last election. we were told they'd stop executive amnesty. they don't do it. why? why do they say they'll do it and they never get it done? >> they're afraid of building the fence. that's where donald trump actually scored is when he talked about the wall defense. that's where i agree with him. i'm let the people who are here stay. i want to build a fence on the southern border that's at least half thousand miles long. i believe krauthammer has said often on this program that 90% of america, 90% of the solution and part of the solution is a big long strong high double sided fence. when donald trump started talking about a wall, that's when people started to listen to him. the other republicans whether

they're on the far edge of that stage or in the middle of it ought to bring it up and commit to actually building a fence. >> let me go to ann. you see donald trump 26% in one poll 26% in another poll 21% in another poll 24% in another poll. these are big numbers when you have 17 candidates in a race. my question to you is republicans promised they'd repeal obamacare but they won't use the power of the purse, their constitutional authority. they said they would stop executive amnesty. they ended up funding it. >> right. >> donald trump said today he would shut down planned parenthood the same day mitch mcconnell said i'll never shut down the government. >> no. i know. >> you got the schism. >> all these questions to donald trump about whether he's going to run as a third party candidate. it's getting to the point that i think the people would like the republican party to become the third party. >> a revitalized second party. >> they are lying to us. what they care about are the donors, chamber of commerce. wall street this globalism and treason to the american people. it isn't just a fence. americans want less immigration.

the politicians won't give it to us. this is why trump is crushing in polls. i hope -- i guess from experience, we're all worried about is mad cow disease don't back away from it donald trump. that would be crushing. >> >> i don't think that's it. but you've been a little bit more critical of donald trump. ann coulter is saying this is the spine that republicans need. voters are clearly saying it as well. you cannot ignore poll after poll with those kind of numbers. >> i had donald on yesterday for half an hour. he's a terrific interview as you know. everyone in the debates will be talking about donald. in fact i'm wearing my miami red hawks tie for the first forum which bill hemmer is running on thursday night. just remember, there is a forum before the forum. they'll be talking about donald trump and his clarity. i like what he has to say. i didn't like the mccain comments. i talked to him about it yesterday. what he's done is provide clarity. i got to say, ann, i disagree,

the republican party is not in trouble. they don't need a third party. we need clarity and long attention to what the people are actually saying not the sound bites framed by the democrats. i don't think we want to go overboard. most of the republicans agree on most of the stuff -- including the iran deal has to be rejected. >> i don't think it's about running a third party because he is dominating every poll. every poll that comes out, he is on top. why is he on top? because of the immigration issue. i'm pointing out that is why, that is why -- if the republicans -- there will be whether it's trump or somebody else is going to go the way of the whigs if they keep refusing to listen to voters. they don't need chamber of commerce money they need votes. >> everything conservative i know is fed up with washington republicans. they're happy with the governors. they feel they have been principled some of them. >> they're not fed up with tom cotton -- they're not fed up with joni ernst. >> but they're fed up with the fact they funded executive amnesty.

i'm fed up. >> i do believe, i do believe that when we come in november at the end of september, if planned parenthood is not defunded and they don't shut the government down there, will be a revolt because those videos. i heard you talking about it on your show earlier today, sean. those videos are a defining moment in american history -- >> i don't think -- i mean, immigration is the new abortion issue. look, every republican is anti-abortion. every republican is against planned parenthood. they all pretend they're ronald reagan. when ronald reagan came along, half of the republican party was pro-abortion was anti-gun was pro-era. it was reagan that stepped away from the pack that is what trump and to some extent romney did. that's the litmus test. all republicans are good on abortion. >> i got to let you both go. thank you. >> thank you. >> good to see you, hugh. coming up. >> he's a progressive. >> jeb bush. >> prochoice. >> why is he so progressive?

>> i think he's progressive because he has -- the border, the immigration. >> an explosive frank luntz focus group. he will reveal what new hampshire thinks of the gop field. another disturbing planned parenthood video has been released. you won't believe what they caught this time. they're talking about literally full babies intact. is that infanticide? we'll talk to the person responsible for those videos, straight ahead. with passion. but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. i earn unlimited 2% cash back on everything i buy for my studio. ♪ and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business... that's huge for my bottom line. what's in your wallet?

governor jeb bush. >> we don't want a hand-selected here is your guy. he's going to lead and got money. >> how is he hand selected? >> he's the establishment choice. he's establishment choice. they want a jeb bush rubio ticket. they'll do anything they can to get it. >> he is a rino. >> wait, wait, he's a progressive? jeb bush? >> yes. >> why is he so progressive? >> i think he's progressive because he has -- the border, the immigration. i think he's too progressive on that. he's a big government guy. he might have been a little bit fiscally sound when he was down in texas. you know what? he's a big government -- florida, excuse me. big government guy. he's prochoice. and he's an absolute establishment candidate who got his bucks through big pacs. >> do you have a problem with jeb bush? >> we need a stronger

conservative president and he's just not it. >> i have a problem because he seems insincere to the other candidates. he's checking notes. he doesn't seem like he's got a belly full of fire compared to the other candidates. >> i don't feel he's engaged. i think a bush-clinton ticket is just more of the same. >> i don't think that he deserves the criticism he's receiving. if you look at his record he has been conservative. he's not inspiring. >> he's a poster child for the establishment candidate. i'm tired of the establishment. >> here now with analysis the man behind the focus group, pollster frank luntz. that was pretty harsh. >> yeah. anyone, if you're labelled establishment, it's even worse than being labelled a moderate these days. they want something who they choose and they don't want to feel like the choice is foisted on them. the second aspect for jeb bush they like him as a person. we didn't hear any of that in this conversation. but they really do like him as a person. they're not convinced he's tough enough. that's what they're looking for. someone who will take it to hillary clinton in the fall. >> he did get high marks on the issue of reforming the va.

let's roll that tape. >> veterans died while waiting for care at the va hospital last year. only two people were fired for lying about the wait times. two people. we trust veterans. we trusted them to fight for us. we should trust them to be able to choose their own doctor and reforming va will be a high priority. >> strong ratings, not off the charts but solid. >> he's got to stop reading speeches. whoever is working with him has to get in front of him and say i'm sorry, governor no more reading. you're going to speak from the heart and you're going to be a better communicator for it. >> you know frank, i did one teleprompter speech in my life. it was the worst speech i ever gave. i take up the microphone and talk from the heart, very important. you had the focus group

comparing and contrasting donald trump and jeb bush. i thought this was pretty interesting. let's roll this tape. >> who is more conservative, jeb bush or donald trump? >> donald trump. >> jeb bush. >> who thinks jeb bush? who thinks donald trump? seriously? >> seriously. >> that's significant. >> are you talking fiscally conservative or socially? >> overall. most of you think donald trump is to the right of jeb bush? >> right. >> that's incredible. >> you know what's interesting? donald trump was a businessman. he supported a lot of candidates, basically anybody who was running i would argue probably from a business standpoint. that seemed to surprise you, why? >> because donald trump has been -- if you take a look at his history the things he's written and the things that he's said he's been in a lot of places on a lot of issues. and jeb bush has been very consistently a conservative. donald trump proves to me the paul simon theory of politics. a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.

it's all about tone sean. it's about trump being aggressive, trump being a fighter. to them they equate that with conservatism. >> you know what's interesting? >> you don't know where he stands on the issues. >> if you look at governor bush's record, it was conservative as governor. the issues of immigration and common core cut so deep, plus coupled with his last name, obviously, those are the three issues he's struggling with in all of this. let me go -- there was sort of mixed reaction to senator ted cruz. he's been outspoken. he's been bold. he took on his own party and asked him to repeal obamacare. they abandoned him. let's go to that tape. >> i don't find anything favorable about him. what i find him is as a first term u.s. senator running for president. we went through that process eight years ago look at what we got. >> do you think ted cruz is the same guy as barack obama? >> no. no. >> i think -- >> constitutional conservative. he has a proven record that we can vet and he is a wonderful communicator.

we haven't had one of those since ronald reagan. >> he stood up in the floor of the senate and caused a government shutdown. we did not need that. it hurt the republican party. >> he's one of the few senators that went to washington to fight obamacare. he's doing it. the rest surrendered. >> i like that he's so principled. i worry about him working with democrats. >> i don't care. >> you don't care? >> the democrats aren't going to work the republicans so it's not necessarily a big deal. >> he knows he's not well-liked in washington but he's willing to speak up. because of what they did they won more seats in 2014. >> i think that last -- she's right. because he took a stand, that's why people like him. >> that's why people like him. the challenge for ted cruz is not just to demonstrate he's smart. everyone knows it or he's conservative. every republican knows it. he has to demonstrate he can defeat hillary clinton by being principled, by being focused, by

being intense. and that's a challenge. new hampshire voters, make no mistake they are principled conservatives but they want to win and vote for someone who they know can beat hillary clinton. >> all right. we have scott walker. we have more donald trump, and we have chris christie more frank luntz right after the break. coming up next -- >> they pulled all the stops to keep him away. they're afraid of him. they went to his parents-house, his house. they protested and picketed. they closed down the state house. he continued the course. that's what we need. >> we have more new hampshire focus group voters giving their opinions. coming up next and later, another undercover planned parenthood video has now been released. and like the others it is very damning. this probably the worst of all. stay with us. damning, this probably the worst of all. stay with us. when a moment spontaneously turns romantic why pause to take a pill? and why stop what you're doing to find a bathroom? with cialis for daily use, you don't have to plan around either. it's the only daily tablet approved to treat erectile dysfunction

when frank luntz spoke with a focus group of voters in new hampshire about new jersey governor chris christie, as you're about to see, the conversation became very heated over an embrace that took place back in 2012. watch this. >> i can't get the picture out of my mind of -- after super storm sandy when obama landed in new jersey and he just cuddled up to him. >> he comes off as arrogant. arrogant. >> very arrogant and very condescending. >> i never forgave him for hugging obama. >> it's just a hug. >> i can't let it go. >> you don't have to embrace him. there's multiple pictures on different visits where he's sitting there full embrace. shake his hand. >> a complete shakedown when he was hugging obama. he claims he's for small government. we had natural disasters before there was a fema agency and he's cuddling up to him to get more money. >> at that point in time he had a natural disaster. new york city had been whacked. the new jersey coast has been whacked. you got to work together to fix

the problem. >> i think we're just making too much out of a photo. if you actually look at his state and how it's been for the last four years, it hasn't gotten any better. we have to look at the record. >> you have to remember that new jersey is a 75% blue state. that's why he had to do it. >> also taxes through the roof which haven't gone down under his leadership. he's supposed to be for small government. taxes have gone up under his leadership. >> he's in a blue state. he's a republican. what does he do? he acts like a democrat. >> frank luntz is still with us. you know i said to the governor when i interviewed him, i was still angry about -- he says it wasn't a hug. all right. i was still angry about that. that hurt mitt romney. andrew cuomo didn't invite him in nor did bloomberg, but chris christie did. obviously, you have a well-informed group of voters, they didn't forget like i didn't forget.

>> well, it's tough. i have to tell you -- i don't know if you've got a sound bite. chris christie's language does better than any other candidate's. his say what you mean, mean what you say approach, he is scoring incredibly high on the dials. maybe only rubio or walker come close to him. when you ask questions about what you think of him, you get those responses right there. they love what they hear from him. but they're still deeply mad at him. >> let me go to scott walker. this is from his announcement speech. we were there in wisconsin at the time. let's roll the tape. >> americans deserve a president who will fight and win for them. someone who will stand up for the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. someone who will stand up for our religious freedoms and all of our other constitutional rights. someone who will stand up for america. you see, it doesn't matter

whether you come from a big city, or a suburb or a small town, i will fight and win for you. >> very solid remarks. the way you like it without any notes. he's not reading a speech. that resonated pretty well. >> there's no sport coat. i didn't see a tie with him. he's casual and committed and he's passionate, but he's not yelling at you. chris christie -- i want to say this carefully -- chris christie too often yells at his audience. and the audience doesn't like it. walker does it exactly as it should be done for republican primary voters. he's one of the people i'll be watching on thursday night. does he bring the passion because i know he has the language. >> let's go with scott walker to the focus group and see what they have to say about him. >> wisconsin is not the most conservative state in the country. he's done well there. >> exactly. it's a liberal state and he's won three elections out of four years.

>> recalls. >> he can fight the union, and he's proven that he can fight the union. >> and that matters to you? >> yes, it does. >> one of the big things we need to talk about, he fought the public sector unions, that's huge. roosevelt was against public sector unions. he fought it, he won, in that state which is a huge accomplishment. kudos to him. he's doing a great job up there. >> i work in education. and i think that as a university person that tenure was important. i don't think it belongs in public sector. i'm not pro union and i never would. >> you support what he's done? >> yeah. >> i agree with a lot of the positions he has taken and especially in the battle with the unions. i don't think he's really prepared to go into the foreign policy realm as president. that's one of the most central issues in the election. i think that's one that he just doesn't have the experience. >> i don't think he knows about immigration. we just saw a clip. he said immigration is a simple problem. that's not true. i'm a texan and it's the most

complex problems that this country faces right now. >> you look at the opponent how they treat a person. they pulled all the stops to keep him away. they're afraid of him. they went to his parents house. they went to his house and protested and picketed and closed down the state house. he continued the course. that's what we need. >> pretty positive remarks. reaction? >> he's got exactly the attributes they're looking for. it's one of the reasons that by 72-28, republicans want a governor instead of a senator. he did exactly what they want him to do. his record is well-known. in iowa and new hampshire, it's one of the reasons why he is doing as well as he is in the polls right now. >> do you think trump sustains? >> yes, i do. >> all right. >> i think that trump continues to build on his support. i think that people who are against him will stay against him. he's not going anywhere. >> all right. thank you frank. great work we'll see you back here tomorrow night. appreciate you being with us. coming up another undercover video exposing planned parenthood has been released. one of the most disturbing next. we'll play it for you. and our question of the day,

welcome back to "hannity." the center for medical progress has released another shocking undercover video, reportedly exposing shock illegal behavior from planned parenthood executives. the newest video allegedly showed the director for research for planned parenthood gulf coast talking about changing

procedures for buying intact fetal cadavers for buyers. we have to warn you. we can't even show you the whole video. but what we will show you is disturbing as very graphic material in case you have kids in the room. here you go. >> so alter our process, and we're able to obtain intact fetal cadavers then we can make it part of the budget that any dissections are this and splitting the specimens into different shipments this. i mean it's all just a matter of line items. >> joining us from the center for medical progress david daleiden is back with us. just to remind you it's illegal to sell fetal body parts and it's illegal to alter the

abortion procedure for harvesting these body parts. two separate things correct? >> correct. >> i'm watching this. we've already talked about how they sip wine eat their frou frou salad, talk about buying lamborghinis. oh it's another boy. the callousness is beyond compare. this is the fifth in a series of 12. in this one, i watch this video. they're talking about intact fetal cadavers. are they alive, these kids when they're born? >> yeah. so one thing that's important for everyone to realize, sean when we're talking about harvesting baby parts from aborted fetuses is that there can't be any kind of fetusical chemical used in a late abortion procedure that is an injection of poison to kill the fetus before the procedure takes place. but if we're talking about fetal tissue procurement or organ harvesting now fetusicadl

chemical can be used. it poisons the tissues and kills the cells and makes them unusable for scientific research. so whenever we're talking about fetal tissue harvesting we're talking about cases where no poison was used. and at the same time you're trying to get the fetuses out as intact as possible you're creating a perfect storm for there to be born alive infants. >> what they're talk about, and they discuss this on the tape, the centimeters of dilation in the woman. and they also talk about the pain tolerance of the woman so that they can have the intact at this point i would argue baby come out which they would then harvest. what are the odds that those kids would actually be born alive? >> the odds are very, very good. there have been different studies done actual studies done by abortion doctors, one of whom dr. ronald berman actually the medical doctor for stem express, which is one of the major baby parts harvesting company partnered with planned

parenthood. dr. berman is also a planned parenthood abortion doctor in northern california. he is one of the several abortion doctors who have done research into that area of how frequently you get a born alive infant when you're doing later second trimester cases and you're not using any fetusica krfetusicida procedure. >> what do you make daniel horwitz over at conservative review put forward a piece today where he says what was the purpose of cubing a vote to defund planned parenthood on a stand alone bill after blocking amendments to do that on what he would argue is a must pass bill? do you think this is a showboat? he argues it was an effort to help some senators. >> well, you know i think it's an important first step. and i think it shows us that we're only anywhere from five to seven votes away. and as the story continues to develop, as the different state investigations and congressional committee investigation,

including the senate judiciary committee investigation of planned parenthood baby part sells continue to move forward more evidence will surface. the emp is continually present mortgage evidence from our two and a half years investigative journalism study. so i think this is just the first step. >> and seven more to come? >> exactly. >> gruesome grotesque, horrific and i think the left has to really examine this closely. it seems like some people on the left are more concerned about cecil the lion than these incredibly disturbing videos. but great work. we look forward to exposing more of this. thank you. >> thanks sean. and coming up next we need your help. the night's question of the day is straight ahead. with passion. but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. i earn unlimited 2% cash back on everything i buy for my studio. ♪ and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business...
