helps him with the republican side. but if you want to portray yourself as being independent it probably ds hurt you a little bit too. remember the reasovawe're having ncy as an attorney general is because president trump thought jeff sessions was too independent, shouldn't have recusedue himself from theer probe. >> because he's been down this road before you consider him a shoo-in? what's the time line. >> i don't consider him a shoo-in, but it helps. you would need some significant republican defections and i don't think we've seen that yet. as far ashe timing. you end up having the hearing and the vote goes before the senate judiciary committee then the full sete. so i think a few weeks. and then the question is whatn comese mueller probe. >> stay tuned. we have a new chair there, lindsey graham and some hopefuls. >> kamala harris was asking questions, corey booker.
