lynn, what do you make of the argument? >> as long as trump is the president he will have the say on who is nominated for any federal judgeships in alabama as well as the federal marshals and magistrates. so it already will happen whether or not you have -- if there is a changeover in party for second senator. so it is a moot point if you don't need moore. you need president trump, not moore, to guarantee more republican judges in alabama, however saying that of course moore would have input with the white house but the white house would be a factor and not dedeterminative because he would be junior senator from that state. >> shelby says he did not vote for roy moore. real quickly, who wins? >> i think the trend is looking towards moore right now. >> i agree. >> thank you both. we appreciate it. still ahead, new mandatory evacuations underway as massive wildfires tear through southern california. some of those who can return home finding ashes. and disturbing new video of the moment arizona police shoot and kill an unarmed man begging for his life. what police are saying about that shooting next. ♪ this holiday, the real gift isn't what's insid
