8:05 am
here that in his audience and then, look, that -- in turn that invites other protesters who want to respond in the same violent way. i think it is -- i think we see an escalation that is taking place here that at the end of the day, the candidate himself is probably the best person to >> looking ahead to the nexe contest on tuesday, trump is doing well in arizona, ted cruz is doing wel in utah. but according to the new york times, it is the wisconsin primary on april 5th, gop leaders are focusing on.. that's when they're going to do this 100 day plan to stoptrump. can you talk about this? what is the theory here and how wi this really work? >> well, that's the -- you hit the@question. i don't know how it is going to work. they have not figured out -- there have been plenty of people who are desiring a strategy to stop trump. but there is no single strategy that anybody wants to unify around. and there is a reason for it. it is the antipathy that washington has toward ted cruz. te cruz is the logical anti-trump vehicle.
8:06 am
to be able to stop trump. he's sitting in second place. but because so many of the big money people, so many u.s. senators and republicans think trump is -- thinks cruz is as unelectable as trump, so they're not ready to do it. i think that's why this anti-trump campaign can't get off the ground. >> really qckly here, chuck, the confirmation battle for supreme court nominee merrick garland now, we saw mike kirk there, the republican, who has ahead of him. the first republican to come out and say, we shouldive this guy a hearing. is this the beginning of something? or is this nomination still very much dead in the water? >> you know, i think i want to know what happens to chuck grassley. i think at the end of the day, it is in his hands. he's the republican senator from iowa. he's the guy in charge of the judiciary committee. he can s sedule the confirmation hearing if he chooses to. he also happens to be up for re-election. if his poll numbers start going south, and he suddenly feels
