8:04 am
with him. >> you knowing there are some say we past peaked trump, it's all over. i don't think that's true. i think for a number of monthsful we get to actual votes being cast iowa new hampshire, south carolina donald trump, because of what you're talking about, universal name recognition, he's willing to say pretty much anything he does not play by the rules and he does tap into something that people really feel in part of the republican party, anti-establishment unconventional, all of that stuff, i think he can dominate the debate for some number of weeks and months to come but the rubber will eventually meet road when votes getting cast. >> it's overwhelming. how do other contenders stand out against donald trump who is getting so much media attention. what are they doing? >> in a work and a half we'll go to cleveland, ohio have the first of a series of republican debates and nine other republicans stand up on april stage in prime time on fox news with donald trump. for all of them the issue of how do we deal with donald trump, do we try to take him down? do we try to just kind of steer
8:05 am

8:06 am
true. what is at issue, should she have been marked classified? an argument between various aspects of the government you're familiar over turf what the classification system should be, and there's a legitimate issue. because of the fact it's not clear whether something should or should not be classified was it a bad thing for hillary clinton to have this server at home which would have maybe made them more vulnerable? things are classified later sometimes in the process. it does go to a substantive problem and certainly the way that donald trump blotted out the sun for other republicans this issue is blotting out the such for her in terms of trying to get her message out. >> how does she get past it in there she's eventually going to testify in october we think, she's going before the house benghazi committee and answer a lot of questions about this e-mail thing. there are some who say she has to turn over the server. this issue will continue to dog her until she eventually has to answer every question as her husband likes to say, until the last dog dies.
