whether you're talking about mark kirk or paul ryan or bill flores who runs the study committee in theare not coalescing around the trump. >> so 85% is the ceiling -- it was 20 to 25. now it's 85. >> you've had enough. equal time for all of you. angela, i want you to have the last word. >> so a couple of things. one is i want to say, brooke, my understanding of your question is to talk to you about what i'm worried about this election cycle so that's what i was answering. >> that's not the question. >> it's not up to you. >> furthermore, i think it's very important that we frame these issues within reality, and i know that that's very, very hard for trump surrogates to do. an e-mail scandal versus whether or not someone respects someone based upon their heritage are two vastly different things and if that's the fundamental question we're wrestling with during the election and that's why hillary clinton during her acceptance speech last night talked about breaking down barriers instead of building up walls and that is a mantra that you will continue to hear because it is a fundamental q
