people describe this nomination in one theory is this is the president offering an olive branch to reblicans. another is this is the president saying i dare you to block this guy and the third is that the president is offering pp the sack rificial lamb for an ugly political fight. >> the president ran a very detailed process and came up with a candidate who met a very simple qualification, namely excellence. everybody that you talk to in legal circles and in the newspapers this morning you cannot find a bad wor said about merrick garland. >> you are saying the president isn't telling republicans i dare you to block this judge? >> i'm telling you the president nominated someone for this vacancy. he found somebody with a proven track record of excellence, somebody who is described as a a fair-minded approach to understanding the law. that's exactly who we found in this judge and we expect the senate to do its job. >> perhaps neither side has clean hands entirely. when senator obama was in office he voted against justice robert's nomination. how does he explain that now? >> well, what is intere

it will split the reblican party. he will fight to the end. this is epic. >> what do you tnk? >> real open question, if trump coes and march 15, takes primaries, and he is the nominee, presumptive one. republicans like marco rubio they said these things they have to make a choice are they going to fall behind h or reject him. if they reject him, then they have to say to themselves, they're forfeiting the white house now. the more important thing here is to prevent a trump takeover of the republican party and prevent a destruction of conservative movement, conservatism. >> you know, i heard today from people in washington, who say they're now hoping for an open convention. how long has it been since you have heard leaders of either party say, what we really want is an open convention. they want to sew it before they get to it. >> yes, party leaders exist so that they can continue themselves and have a certain amount o& predictability, stability built into the system. they don't want an open convention. they all call it a brokered convention. that's because they still have the i
