president obama announced his choice to replace the late antonin scalia on the u.s. supreme court, setting into motion now a showdown with republicans, which could have huge implications in what is already a contentious presidential election year as you know. this is "outnumbered." i'm harris faulkner. here today, andrea tantaros, co-host of "after the bell" on fox business, melissa francis, democratic strategist and fox news contributor julie roginsky, and our #oneluckyguy, right on time, veteran trial attorney, fox news legal analyst, peter johnson, jr. pjj is outnumbered and we will lean on you heavily. >> please do. please do. harris: glad you're here. >> thank you so much. harris: we'll get to the news. now we have a name. president obama naming chief judge of the d.c. court of appeals, merrick garland to be his pick to replace the cornerstone of conservatism, the justice antonin scalia who you know died last month. in announcement from the rose garden president obama called on

republicans who have refused to hold a nomination hearing during an election year to do what he says is their constitutional duty. >> i have fulfilled my constitutional duty. now it is time for the senate to do theirs. presidents do not stop working in the final year of their term. neither should a senator. harris: we have this reaction from the senate majority leader mitch mcconnell who repeated the republicans position that this is for the next president to decide. >> the senate will continue to observe the biden rule, so that the american people have a voice in this momentous decision. the american people may well elect a president who decides to nominate judge garland for senate consideration. the next president may also nominate somebody very different. either way, our view is this.

give the people a voice in filling this vacancy. harris: that was just moments after the announcement of the nomination, so very quick news happening in the past hour. some details to know about judge garland for you. he is 63 years old, a graduate of harvard law school. he clerked for liberal icon supreme court justice william brennan, jr. judge garland is considered a moderate who worked in both republican and democratic administrations and this to note. he was called a consensus nominee by republican senator orrin hatch back in 2010. all right let's start with where the president chose to draw line here on constitutionality. you and i talking earlier today. >> sure, yes. harris: whether or not that is even true. does the senate have to weigh in? >> with all due respect to the president let's talk about the law, talk about the constitution. he is wrong on the constitution. he is wrong on the law. article 2, section 2, clause 2 of the united states constitution known as the

ability of the united states senate to give advice an consent with regard to presidential nominees including supreme court justices. it is a power, not a duty. there is nothing in the constitution that says that the united states senate, once the president acts must act. look at article 1, section 5 of the constitution, not getting in the weeds, but each house has its power to make its own rules. harris: right. >> filibustering, whatever it is. so the senate can say under its power, under the constitution we can decide or not to decide to take up this nomination. we can hold a hearing, we can not hold a hearing. we can dover whatever we please. the founding fathers did not intend that the advice and consent power in the constitution be a duty for the senate. so unfortunately for the president he is wrong on that constitutional issue, big time.

harris: "washington post" did a article on this. part of the reason why it is becoming a nomenclature constitutional responsibility it happened over and over during the years. i will let you finish. >> you hit it on the head, as you always do. the white house saying in 141 years the president has not had a hearing turned down when he requested a hearing. there is precedent for it. it's a political question. it's a political determination. that is not something up to the courts, go to the supreme court or go to some district court say, listen the united states they're not doing their job. they're violating their constitution. harris: so, andrea, this is opportunity for mitch mcconnell and other republicans to set the record straight on this. we didn't actually hear that from the senate majority leader. troops that will be coming. what we did hear definitely they're not moving. andrea: so glad we have you here today, peter because that is just spot on.

we did hear mitch mcconnell hint that there is no constitutional requirement that the senate take him up and he used the vice president's words, the biden rule which is very, very savvy of him to do put it back on president obama. i wish mitch mcconnell, instead of talking about what the senate has been doing on the heroin bill, talk about more interesting issues but he put himself first because that is important issue in kentucky. peter is right, no constitutional requirement for the senate to take it up. hammer it home. continue on biden rule, biden's own rules. the filibuster, president obama filibustered past nominees. he should make the political point you just mentioned harris, if hillary clinton is the nominee, then that is vote on obama legacy. let the american voters decide. she is the obama legacy, let them have their say in the fall. but i do want to quickly talk about the political aspect of this. merrick garland was one who prosecuted right-wing extremist in oklahoma city. you heard him mention this. is obama's effort to look bipartisan and reasonable.

he knows the right is divided. capitalizing on that division. he knows that he is going to call them allegedly violent trump supporters will stand up and he will say, you're blocking him because this is pay back because he prosecuted the oklahoma city bombers. he knows that attack is coming. i believe it is political trap, harris. he will capitalize on division of the right and make himself look reasonable and bipartisan and media will ride shotgun on the entire thing. harris: julie, real quickly, i think this is worth noting. when you look at his resume', look who he is, one thing that stands out is 63 years old. i know 63 is what, the new 94? i'm not sure. >> 29, come on. harris: whatever it means it could potentially not be legacy pick for the president. is merrick garland taking one for the people.

>> i can speak to somebody in politics working on the hill of course you're right. he is moderate, moderate, older appointee, which means that he might be there for 20 years. he may vote with the republicans. he may vote with the democrats. may vote like justice kennedy. conversely, democrats, excuse me, republican better be darn sure donald trump will win and hold senate majority. if hillary clinton wins and democrats get senate. underscore 24 republican senators up and 10 democrat snorters up. good chance the senate flips. appoints much more liberal justice they will be begging -- it is a trap. harris: we have a little bit what garland says the kind of judge he would be. let's watch. >> fidelity to the constitution and the law has been the cornerstone of my professional life. and it is the hallmark of the

kind of judge i have tried to be for the past 18 years. if the senate sees fit to confirm to the position for which i'm been nominated today, i promise to continue on that course. harris: here is what we know the president has said he will do. he had this conference call on monday and they're talking about this elaborate plan, part of it is this new twitter page, scotus nomination. and they're putting out tweets every few minutes so that -- you heard the president, people can go and learn more about this nominee. they're going to use the power, i suppose of popularity, if they can gin it up. >> no. i mean i think that you're all absolutely right. this is a trap. it is a political move laid out by president obama so why not call him on his bluff? he seems like a completely reasonable candidate who both sides like. he, like you said he is older than most of the people that would be nominated. it is not a legacy pick. so why not call him on his bluff. you know that it is killing president obama to not appoint

someone his own personal thinking? i mean this man is moderate. call his bluff. go ahead. put him through the motions. put him on the court. i can think of nothing more disappointing to the left. i think republicans are making a huge mistake and take him up on his offer and take this, this candidate because like you said, i mean if they don't, they could really, really regret it down the road. andrea: that is what they're banking on. they're banking on republicans doing what they always do. never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. >> yes. andrea: they're standing up. block him. take the bait. i'm being moderate. i put -- harris: senator chuck grassley just weighed in. forgive me, peter, i want to get this sent to me. lifetime appointment could dramatically impact individual freedoms and change the direction of the court for a generation is too important to get bogged down in politics. american people should not be denied a voice.

do we want a court that interprets law or want a court that acts as unelected super legislature? this year is tremendous opportunity your country to have sincere honest debate about the role of the supreme court and our constitutional system of government. he is making this broader issue than this candidate. >> so shortsighted. orrin hatch, this is orrin hatch said this last week. obama could easily name merrick garland, a fine man. he probably won't do that, because this appointment is about the election. i'm sure he names someone liberal base wants. that was orrin hatch last week and walked into barack obama's trap. andrea: checkmated. >> the problem if they persist in this obstructionism, get a liberal young judge changes the court for next 40 years. >> under the constitution it is not obstructionism. person of integrity. great to see that as a lawyer. what the democrats are saying, what the white house is saying this is our political version of let's make a deal. as you are saying -- >> no one in america wants that

right now. >> we don't know what is behind the curtain. that is going to be argument. >> american people are sick of it. >> that's what they're up to. that is what they're up to. harris: get your response though. senator chuck grassley, chairman of the senate judiciary committee making those comments, making this about a bigger issue. should we look at role of supreme court in total, not just filling a seat? which makes you think, well maybe it is time to take a push back even if you're not part of the 63% that may feel like you know, they want a voice in all of this? maybe you're neutral on it. that is a good argument, a strong argument for republicans. can they sell it? >> they will try to sell it hard. it will become a paramount issue in the presidential campaign and in the house and senate campaigns this year. it is a difficult thing to sell especially when there's been a moderate, as it were candidate put forward. there is some issues with regard how he voted in the past with regard to second amendment issues. and they will be explored as

well in the coming days. andrea: harris, i'm glad you brought this up. there is process argument and policy argument peter is making and republicans and peter are both correct on the process, trying to explain process is complicated. they have hostile media on their side. politics always win and they do it better than anyone. they checkmated republicans if continue to block. >> miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. >> peter is right. take the cash now because door number two is hillary clinton's young liberal appointee. i guaranty you if she wins, i can't guarranty it, if she wins election, goes democratic, this nomination may be pulled after the election and -- >> senate republicans about principle and constitution. not about politics. we have right to do it. >> congratulationses when you get a liberal. andrea: another thing mitch mcconnell could have talked about, all these important other issues who gave standdown order on sailors. why is the administration

scrubbing intel reports. what happened to the side deals on iran you were going to send my way. instead of talked about a heroin bill in kentucky, putting his own motives first. republicans always do this. short sightedness. they're losing. someone needs to lead them. i'm worried because the right is so divided bill ayres playbook, trap trump supporters use this opportunity to capitalize on division. harris: i wish we had another few minutes to talk about, you're talking about the senate majority leader needs somebody to lead? i mean you've already got a leader right there. andrea: yeah, i know. there is leadership vacuum in the republican party but there is also huge division. obama is doing exactly what he does that, capitalizing on that and both sides take the bait. harris: we both mentioned orrin hatch. i said he had called previously judge garland a consensus consideration back, you know years ago. wonder how he feels about it now? we'll find out. he will be a guest on "the real

town donald trump scored major victories where he delivered a knockout blow in florida to native sown marco rubio.

john kasich won his own home state slowing the real estate mogul's trail to the nomination. hillary clinton won three states decisively and barely edges out bernie sanders in illinois and missouri is still too close to call. more on the democrats later. here is donald trump delivering a clear message in his victory speech tomorrow night. >> we're going to start winning again. this country is going to start westerning again. [applause] we don't win anymore. we're going forward and we're going to win but more importantly we're going to win for the country. we're going to win, win, win and we're not stopping. we'll have great victories for our country. andrea: but it may not be so simple. ohio governor john kasich's home state victory making it much more likely that the gop is headed toward a brokered convention in july. here he is. >> we put one foot in front of the other and i want to remind you, again tonight, that i will not take the low road to the highest office in the land.

[cheers and applause] andrea: last night also mashed the end of florida senator marco rubio's campaign after trump's huge victory in the sunshine state, rubio announced he was suspending his campaign, saying it is clear he is on the right side but not the winning side. okay, peter, what do you think about last night's results? trump racking up a important win in florida, kasich, a state where set governor, 80% approval rating no surprise he would do pretty well? >> the truth it was phenomenal result for trump. even though he lost and kasich got all the delegates for kasich to do so poorly when he had done so well recently in the gubernatorial election, it was kind of astounding. so you see this trump path to victory perhaps but in the north and the south. in the midwest, even in the west. andrea: yes. >> it is astonishing array of

victories. if there was anyone else other than donald trump, if it was kasich, or rubio, then there would be adoration society. they would be laying down the rose petals. people would be saying step out of the way, this is our nominee. he is being coronated. let's have an air of good feelings until the convention in the august. let's build the guy up but what is happened to donald trump and i think really in derogation of the free political process, i know it is all political, i guess anything is free and good in politics and even when it is bad, they're trying to destroy the guy. and a lot of people are. and democrats are, because the democrats realize that he is a substantial candidate, that is exciting people, that is going to change the dynamic? you could have another five or six percentage points of voters who have stayed home in the past, based on 50 or 52% turnout that are turning up to vote in

america. harris: way you put rose petals, eddie murphy, "coming to america," okay, here comes the candidate. i read something this morning talked about the fact in john kasich stays in the race, more than seals the deal for donald trump to get to 1237. i read deeper because that doesn't make any sense. it would be smarter to combine forces with a ted cruz because it continues to get people to have to choose. it allows donald trump to have more singular message. it is interesting, for those who want to push against donald trump, this might not -- >> you raise a good point there is never trump, or never, never kasich or never cruz. harris: they don't matter that much. >> look at delegate count this morning, trump as 646 delegates. about 50%. you're so right. if this were four years ago and mitt romney had 50% of the vote they would have been coronating him. unprecedented.

andrea: melissa, you hear this excitement and pushing kasich and can't argue the math. you're going, that is fruitless effort but to harris's point you've got the never trump and never cruz and never kasich. kasich stays in. he hasn't won anywhere else. cruz, we're not sure he gets to the nomination. if they all stay in almost guarranties trump victory. melissa: you saw a very important pivot last night with donald trump. i was here allnight. when he gave speech different than the ones before. it was brief and funny. he had a joke writer. got his ad in for doral, always talkses about his properties, makes him luscious so people will buy. giving trophy to adam scott and they go to commercial break and play two attack ads, on trump. look at the green. how embarrassing it was. did another joke, attack ads

everybody is hitting me, 90% of isn't true. you're like, wait, 9% isn't true? self-deprecating, funny. totally different guy. evolution is continuing. he is marketing master. he knows what he is doing. moving past the primary into the general. he is continues underestimated. andrea: continue with that theme, because donald trump's big win last night as peter mentioned, he is facing major takedown efforts from both the left and right. top liberal leaders to make americans take concrete steps against republican front-runner, and protests for large-scale voter turnout. "politico" is reporting that influential conservatives planning a third party run against donald trump with a meeting planned in washington. exit polls in four of the five states, about 40% republican voters would be open to third party candidate if general election came down to trump and

hillary clinton. peter that would almost guarranty the "r" word, revolution on the republican right if that were to happen. speak a little bit about where the party, where you see the republican party's head at. trying to get trump out of the race. oddly some of them getting behind a kasich, who again doesn't have the math, supports endless wars, amnesty, medicaid expansion. you can go on and on. he arguably is far from conservative as well. >> governor kasich would have to achieve 80 something percent or maybe 90 percent of delegates going forward to achieve -- >> over 100. >> 102 or something like that. >> not mathematically possible. it was bizarre, governor kasich was talking about how he can cross over to democratic voters. i thought that was a strange argument after a victory in the republican presidential primary? what happens is, i think you have a lot of congresspeople and senators in washington who believe they should be the nominee even though they didn't run.

so there is sour grapes going on. i could have been, i can't believe trump is there. if trump get the nomination, they will all solidly fall in line because they want to keep their jobs. at every level of the republican party, they will step in line. harris: that is kind of a sad. snoopy will want to win in november. -- they will want to win in november. republican party snaps in line behind donald trump if in fact he wins. the history of elections in this country. andrea: a fight for their very power and exist lens right now, the establishment. they're fighting for their very power and existence. what do you think, melissa about the prospect of donald trump and his crossover appeal? interesting just what peter mentioned. kasich saying i have ability to reach across the aisle. the right has a candidate that will reach across the aisle, garner blue-collar voters, something the republican party always wanted and trying to destroy him.

>> melissa: they diminish it. appeal to independents and democrat coming out to vote, they say it is knock on trump that they're posing asblicans tr hillary. that is lot of time and trouble to throw an election that would be quite an organization out there. most people don't care about politics that month. i think he is a crossover candidate. like anything else he will not fit with all your views. your perfect candidate is probably not in the race any longer. you have to choose from the best that are left. get behind them. the idea you will burn your own house down rather than go with the candidate the party has put forward is my e missing an opportunity to miss the opportunity again, right? andrea: seem to have lighter fluid and matches, started burning one wing, most of the wings -- harris: i get a little heart scratch when you said what you said. >> idealist? harris: you took the words, i thought people would either get

behind a candidate, not put behind a candidate based on vision for the party, whichever party it was, when you say no, they want to protect the power and -- >> keep the power and keep the jobs. >> i disagree with that. >> keep the opportunity to exercise conservative principles and republican principles and they say, look at the alternatives that they're facing. are they going to come out en masse to endorse hillary clinton? absolutely not. >> no, but kelly ayote and john mccain, people in danger this year will not endorse him. they will run away from him. they will take him down and they know it. see the polls. andrea: novel idea people in washington being power hungry. harris: that is a little pollyanna. andrea: we'll get you there and you'll learn. speaking of presidential politics she put a lost distance between herself and bernie sanders in the dell got count. -- gel gaat count.

delegate. does she have chance to erase any of those doubts? heartburn! no one burns on my watch! try alka-seltzer heartburn reliefchews. they work fast and don't taste chalky. mmm...amazing. i have heartburn. alka-seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief. we'd like to open a savings make account for him. yes yes. great thanks to mom and dad and their safe driving bonus check from allstate.

that gives you better taste and better nutrition in so many varieties. classic. cage free.

and organic. only eggland's best. better taste. better nutrition. better eggs. melissa: we turn back to presidential politics. despite hillary clinton's wins last night there are big concerns about her weakness heading into the general election. "wall street journal" pointing out the former secretary of state has struggled in kind of swing states where democrats have to win in order to prevail in november like michigan, where she lost to bernie sanders last week. illinois where she barely eked out a win yesterday and missouri which is still too close to call. clinton has lingering issues with trustworthiness seen in fox exit polls. more than a third of voters in florida and ohio say she is not honest. that goes up to half in north carolina and missouri.

andrea, when we see the race against bernie sanders. why does it matter? she has superdelegates because she will win no matter what. it matters it shows republicans where her weakness is, independents and young people. andrea: absolutely. think about who does well in those states. donald trump did well in michigan. shouldn't do well in state like missouri, very evangelical, he did, tied essentially with ted cruz. that should cause the democrats some heartache. clinton has a lot of trouble as you mentioned likability and trustworthiness. you think back to the server scandal. i saw last night, melissa, a tweet came out from hillary clinton herself, all the cheers around her and racked up all the wins, no way this woman being unstoppable as it is, coronation as it is that this administration will indict that woman. i've been saying for months. it is not going to happen. this administration doesn't care about security and rules and pretty caught of national security.

we've seen it time and again. they all knew she had the server. many operated above the law all the way to the white house's door. they are in on it. they are covering for her and she is covering for them. melissa: harris, you're nodding your head. harris: i always nod when someone is talking. better than doing this. >> hillary, always does that too. harris: what is running through my mind, where does the bernie sanders voters go? when you look at demographics of some of the younger voters they are actually aligned more with donald trump than they are with hillary clinton. they like a movement. you know, they're looking at some of the issues that, they want to be decided by somebody who doesn't live inside the beltway. that is how they're looking. so they may be willing to give him a shot. that gives him another added advantage if he turns out to be the nominee against her. so she has to turn her head to the general election. it isn't about bernie, whether

or not she is doing well in trustworthy category all of that. this is about the general. it does show a weakness. melissa: part of that weakness comes from lack of enthusiasm. i want to show you video that came out of winter park, florida, shows her team trying to ramp up a crowd ahead of time. you tell me if they looked ramped. >> i believe that we will win. i believe that we will win. [bleep] i believe we will win. i believe that we will win! melissa: julie, if you were there, would you hit the shots. would you be like -- andrea: they need harris faulk any. they need harris faulkner. harris: hand signals. >> i will say this, you guys can not take, historically never been the take what happens in primary translate to a general. barack obama didn't even compete in michigan in 2008 and he won the election.

i mean -- harris: that crowd look enthusiastic to you? >> if you're looking at, same thing happened in 2008, where will the hillary voters go if obama get nomination. they all went with him. can't translate what happens in primary demographically say it will happen in the general. if you look at negatives the only person with much higher negatives is donald trump. if anybody but trump were nominee. he is more disliked and more distrusted by majority of voters. melissa: go ahead. >> do you know who george romero was? you know the movies he made? harris: i will not but i won't mean it. >> the living dead movies. showed the poor people, pumping gas, what were they doing there? i have never seen such -- i mean, you know that is tough looking group. they don't look happy to be there. were they paid to be there? harris: i don't know. >> i don't know what the heck was going on there. harris: they need to be served cocktails. melissa: we got to go.

andrea: check the room for carbon monoxide leak. melissa: more evidence of isis's cruelty taking a serious turn here. terror group throwing bibles and other christian literature into a huge bonfire. this as the administration is expected to miss a he had did line on whether to declare the terror group's attacks against christians again side. why the foot -- genocide. why the foot-dragging? we'll debate that coming next.

when i went on to ancestry, i just put in the name of my parents and my grandparents. and as soon as i did that, literally it was like you're getting 7, 9, 10, 15 leaves that are just popping up all over the place. yeah, it was amazing. just with a little bit of information, you can take leaps and bounds. it's an awesome experience.

thwith aches, chills,g. and fever, there's no such thing as a little flu. and it needs a big solution: an antiviral. so when the flu hits, call your doctor right away and up the ante with antiviral tamiflu. prescription tamiflu is an antiviral that attacks the flu virus at its source and helps stop it from spreading in the body. tamiflu is fda approved to treat the flu in people two weeks of age and older whose flu symptoms started within the last two days. before taking tamiflu, tell your doctor if you're pregnant, nursing, have serious health conditions, or take other medicines. if you develop an allergic reaction, a severe rash, or signs of unusual behavior, stop taking tamiflu and call your doctor immediately. children and adolescents in particular may be at an increased risk of seizures, confusion, or abnormal behavior. the most common side effects are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. anti-flu? go antiviral with tamiflu.

harris: the obama administration will likely miss tomorrow's congressionally mandated deadline for whether to declare isis attacks on christians genocide. the associated press is reporting that. there is pressure on the obama white house now. this week the house unanimously passed a bipartisan resolution agreeing to enable it genocide.

the administration resisted using the word in the past as you know saying the issue is not as clear-cut as it may seem. >> applying the label of genocide as policy matter is one that has significant legal implications and that is why there are attorneys at the state department who have now for quite some time been closely examining the use and application of that term. the president has already ordered aggressive, robust action to try to protect religious minorities who are in the cross-hairs of isil fighters. harris: all of this coming as the isis savages have just released this chilling new video. it shows bibles and other christian literature being tossed into a huge bonfire. all right, so for secretary kerry and the state department, this is what they're looking at. at issue whether the islamic state as mass murders, beheads, torture, other crimes carried out against ethnic and religious

minorities in iraq and syria meet the u.n. definition of genocide, to destroy in whole or in part a ethical, racial or religious group. that is the very definition of genocide. >> it is definition of weak, incompetent government too. how many people will die as a result of this genocide until this white house makes up its mind as to the legal implications. there are legal implications, there are legal definitions. the u.n. has them. the other people defined it. the pope defined it. marco rubio has defined it. the bishops have defined it. protestant leaders have defined it. a lot of people have defined it but how many people will die until they make a decision? it's a moral calculus. it is not a legal compass or a legal rule or a legal definition. it is looking into what happened and making a determination and then acting, whatever the moral or economic or legal

consequences are, act. stop it! never again. never another genocide. if it is genocide say it and world has said it's a genocide. >> can i actually jump on that because you're so right. i remember we all have read about the fact that president roosevelt and winston churchhill wouldn't bomb train tracks going to auschwitz and whole calculus, for whatever reason -- >> we turned away ships. >> we turned away ships and the st. louis. anybody descendant ever thosepe, care about what is going on in the world, how do you not see what is going on here? this is happening against christians. happening against the yazidis and certainly the jews in the middle east not just here but for the past 50 or 60 years. >> right. >> happens sunni against shia. there are genocides going on not just limited to christians but really targeting all sorts of ethnic minorities. and we can not, as you said, we can never say never again and not mean it. >> got to mean it.

>> every generation, happened in rwanda. this happened in the balkans. every generation sees this opportunity and every generation says never again and they do it again. andrea: this opportunity peter mentioned, you have to speak out on moral basis. we have a white house operating on one that is political. isis did not exist, even though radical islamic jihadism did exist, isis metastasized under barack obama. when they started he called them jv. to acknowledge the perpetrator of the violence means you have to acknowledge the victim. he is not going to acknowledge the victim when he won't even acknowledge the perpetrator, harris. they will not put themselves in a place to acknowledge something because that would concede they got this wrong. >> that is brilliant point. harris: russia pulling out of syria. andrea: acknowledging failure. harris: with russia pulling out of syria, they were under the guise of might be helping to fight the isis savages. with them leaving, that leaves it to who else will pick up the reins on that?

the enemy is defining what it is. they're burning bibles. andrea: it's a holy war. melissa: it is. we're not doing anything about it. we continue to be pushed further and further. we're also not talking about the 21-year-old boy in north korea who was sent to a labor camp, university of virginia student from ohio. this is another story where america is being pushed around and we're not doing anything about it. harris: we'll cover it as it happens. hillary clinton sounding like she is already fast forwarded, to the general election, i'm pushing the fast forward button there. all the while donald trump and rest of the gop field remain locked in fierce battle for the nomination. could hillary's head start hurt republicans? is it time for the gop to get behind one candidate? a heart attack doesn't care if you run everyday, or if you're young or old.

andrea: more "outnumbered" in just a few moments but first jon scott with what is coming up in hour two of "happening now." >> hey, andrea. president obama nominates merrick far land to replace supreme court justice antonin scalia in a rose garden ceremony. almost immediately the republican senate majority leader mitch mcconnell said no dice. we'll talk to our legal panel what it means to cases before the current supreme court. governor john case sick

holding a -- john kasich holding a rally in pennsylvania after win had his home state state of ohio. we'll talk about kasich's possible path to convention battle ahead. hillary clinton had a big night last night winning primaries in florida, illinois and north carolina and ohio. looks like she might have won missouri although remains too close to call. we'll talk about what it means to her race and look at the democratic nominating process overall coming up on "happening now." andrea: big use indeed. thanks, jon. >> hillary clinton crushing the competition last night. she is using her victory speech to pivot to the general election and taking on gop front-runner donald trump. let's watch this. >> when we hear a candidate for president call for rounding up 12 million immigrants, banning all muslims from entering the united states.

[booing] when he embraces torture, that doesn't make him strong. it makes him wrong! [cheering] >> all of this as the gop remains locked in a fierce primary battle that could go all the way to a contested convention, when the party assembles in cleveland in july. so, miss tantaros, should the republicans get behind the front-runner donald trump for their best chance to win in november? andrea: i think they should let the process play out without trying to undermine donald trump. let the voters have their say. let them be heard, step aside. don't try to run them out of the race. don't spend money to get him out of the race. focus on the real opponent, hillary clinton. especially now because it looks like the ds will lock it down much quicker than the right. >> julie, go to the ds.

a lot of states to go in the republican primary, tactically where should the republicans be? >> where should republicans be? >> yeah. >> i would give them same advice as andrea did. they would be insane to start a civil war at convention if donald trump has plurality not majority. seems like they will not take my advice or andrea's advice on this. like him or hate him, i'm certainly not a fan of is, he is going to be the nominee. they have one of two choices. take this all the way to the convention. spent entire summer killing each other while hillary clinton amasses more and more support. or, they can say, this is who the voters chose, maybe the party elites don't like him but who plurality of voters, this is who we go to war with. that is what i would do. harris: one of the challenges for republican party will be sooner or later get money behind whatever candidate they put up, right? if you wait too late in the process you have dollars out there not working for you. you need to start to at some point angle those dollars into a

specific direction and fight, whichever candidate that the people choose. by the way that people are speaking. i read you need at least eight states at this point to be considered really viable moving forward. there is only one person who has won eight states already. that would be donald trump. i mean they are speaking. so what andrea is saying, not only let process play out but listen to the people who already voted. andrea: don't isolate them. melissa: we talked in the beginning about pivoting to the general election. hillary clinton is doing that donald trump is doing that as well. his ability to slap label on people, low energy jeb or little marco. what will he put on hillary clinton. you heard him say it couple times now. she has neither the strength or energy to be president. when you watch the clip being played, she is hoarse being out on the trail, the label sticks. talking about whether he is saying it gender way she has

neither the strength or energy or talking about age or health issues, whatever it is, you see her out there and she sounds hoarse and looks tired, that is where he is going. andrea: i think establishment made the right rally behind mccain and rally behind romney and they did and now the establishment needs to get behind the people. behind the people. moreout numbered in just a moment. and sprinkles on brown sugar streusel. so that you can spend more time making special moments with your family. marie callender's. it's time to savor. ♪ the roles you play in life are part of what make you, you.
