is not just regional. it's an american problem. is there going back to the canister, it could be a fake. >> it could be. they want us to think there's a missile inside. they generally say if this is what it looks like, this is what it's going to become. they've said publicly, that's the aspiration. >> the nuclear test. that's what we're concerned about. >> that's the next step. we'll wait to see. you have to have a missile to deliver the nuke. you have to have the nuke itself. the next thing is the underground test. the administration said yesterday there will be severe consequences if they light it off. we'll have to wait and see the 'action of the white house. >> thank you, guys. the crisis if syria. a devastating suicide bombing has killed more than 100 people, including dozens of children.

the democrat overperformed in a district that is very republican. it was a canary in a coal mine. the democrat is ahead. if a democrat wins the district in georgia, there's real chance democrats could take back congress in 2018. >> i don't know the president was watching. safe to say he would disagree with matt's analysis of kansas. he put out a tweet yesterday saying the recent kansas election, congress, was a really big media event until the republicans won. new they're playing the the same game with georgia. bad. >> trump carried that district in kansas by 7 point ps. they won it by 6. it was a scare. the democrats didn't invest in that race. this georgia race is critical. we're a long way from the midterm elections. if the democrats can win that, sthat the kind of race they need to win to retake congress. it's a

the flip side is also true. if they can't win in georgia, it's a republican district. it's more narrowly republican. they'll have a tough time winning control of congress. >> this comes up against the backdrop of the foreign crises. the strike on syria the strike on afghanistan. the saber. rattling with korea. >> yeah, the interesting thing is, they vice president seemed to affect donald trump's aprufl ratings in the country. within the first days after inauguration, the majority of the country disapproved. today, after all the actions he's taken, a majority of the country still disapproves. the country is seeing the actions in a prism from their own view point. people that don't like him see them as erratic and dangerous. people that like him see them as strong and decisive. even is waiting for the foreign policy strategy. >> it does seem to have brought more organization to the core of the white house, though. >> yeah,

these things on the national stage could do more to define the trump presidency. >> thank you very much. to ginger with severe weather and flooding in the plains and midwest. >> such an act i have weekend over the plains. i want to show you the h video. this tornado captured in nebraska. just so picturesque. fortunate that of the more than 160 severe storm reports, many came in places that are less pop lated. could have been mauch different story. overnight, flash flooding. this one from fairmount, ohio. one to three inches of rain. a lot of rain just north of chicago.
