cnn senior commentator john kasich is here.. >> hello, don. >> the numbers are not good, especially on top issues for voters. -- handling of the economy, and that is gonna be a major issue in both the midterms and 2024. >> yeah. the poll about how people think he's doing with the economy is worse than his overall approval. it's in the low 30s. and on, it's always a pocketbook. that's why almost always matters. and in this case, you know, when people are paying for gasoline at the pump, they go to the store in the prices are up, and i think it's particularly hurting people who don't have a lot. these blue-collar folks are having a hard time making ends meet, and they're very unhappy with. one recommendation i would've picked so biden is he needs to take a job there from bill clinton and tell us that he feels our pain. and sometimes he says -- things are going well, they're on the right track, well they're not on the right track, and he needs to get down with everybody else and sit there and say, look, i get it, and we're gonna w

let's bring in cnn senior political commentator john kasich, former governor of ohio, michael smerconish and anchor and correspondent audie cornish. governor, what did you make of that speech from former president trump? he clearly seems to be setting the stage for a 2024 presidential run. >> i think that's right, wolf. as i watched it, i turned to somebody who works with me and i said i think he's running. he picked on democrat vulnera vulnerabilities like border and crime. wolf, when i listened to that speech, it made me think of ronald reagan. reagan was able to list a litany of problems that jimmy carter had or the democrats had, but after listing them, he always brought us hope. he became a vessel of hope. when i listen to trump, i hear down, i hear was not elevating the spirit of our country. oh, yeah. maybe he could win. perhaps he could win. i'm not convinced he can be nominated, let alone elected, but you can win the battle and lose the war. what this counted needs more than anything else is to stop the division, stop creating stark differences and offer some hope and a way to s

cnn's senior commentator, john kasich, is here. hello john.ning. >> hello don. >> the numbers are not good. especially on top issues for voters. most americans don't approve of the president's handling of americans. that is what the major issue in both the midterms and in 2024. >> yes. i mean in the poll about how they feel he's done with the economy, it is worse than his overall approval. it is in the low 30s. and, don, look it is always a pocketbook. that is what always matters. in this case you know what people are paid to get gasoline at the pump. they go to the store and prices are up. i think it is particularly hurting people who don't have a lot. these blue-collar folks who are having a hard time making ends meet and they are very unhappy. one recommendation i would make joe biden is that he needs to take a chapter from bill clinton and tell us that he feels our pain. and sometimes he says, well things are going great and they're going well and they're on the right track, but they're not on the right track. he needs to get down with eve

governor john kasich, thank you so much. >> absolutely. it's interesting. it's what makes politics so good. we never know what's going to happen tomorrow. >> we don't. >>> coming up, from record-setting heat waves to wildfires out west, the pressure is on the biden administration to declare a climate emergency. what or who is standing in the president's way. so she starts a miro to brainstorm. “shoot it?” suggests the scientists. so they shoot it. hmm... back to the miro board. dave says “feed it?” and dave feeds it. just then our hero has a breakthrough.

john kasich. the man who can't be bought. and leslie clark. the great former general would be our prescription for the best for this country. and i also think the deal that schumer and the other guy put, the guy from west virginia. i think it's a sham what they were doing. they are putting the people off. and i think you look great smoking a cigarette. thank you. guest: i look great smoking a cigarette? i don't smoke. thanks. i think wesley clark is quite an admirable person, too. he was running for president a number of years ago and came to nevada. i have stayed in touch with you. i agree with you on that. as far as the shame, i have been disappointed in mention, too. he's like if you don't play my way, i'm going to take my ball and go home. we will see if the deal goes through. i never think it's over until the lady sings. we have a couple more days here this week and hopefully will move forward because i do think it's got some good things in it and the president has endorsed it. it's got some good things for health care, energy. we will ke

joining us now cnn's chief political ablist gloria allred and shan woo and cnn senior commentator john kasich of ohio. thank you. gloria, how damaging is this allegation that someone sought to influence the hutchinson testimony on behalf of mark meadows? >> i think it's damning and potentially illegal. we know from the reporting that mark meadows in many ways was the donald trump enabler in all of this. we know that he was warned of violence before january 6. we know a multiple times we know that before january 6 he met with rudy giuliani and after that meeting hutchinson went in to speak with meadows and said things might get real, real bad. she said that he asked for a pardon but he disputes that. i would say that she said this under oath. and so, we know that he also let the president speak with some conspiracy theorists and that when trump told him to call michael flynn and roger stone he did. he wlistened to the president from. in terms of this we would have to say that he was the man closest to the president on this and did nothing to kind of stop what the president sbintended t do whic

. >> i want to bring in john kasich of ohio for thoughts on this. what is your reaction on hearing what currentkushner? >> look. i ran a big state here. seventh largest state in the country. when they back bite and the other things it is really hard to get anything done. i'm not surprised by this and that there's tremendous chaos inside that building. it shows you why you have seen what you have seen in that administration. so there's no real surprise to me. what i would say is for anybody who wants to assume an administrative role if you don't get the people together and move in the same direction you won't get good results. >> charlie, how concerning is it to learn about this dysfunction within trump's west wing as he seems to be gearing up for potentially another presidential run? >> i'm not surprised. governor kasich may recall, too, i witnessed how the dysfunctional president berated me. i was trying to show the problems with the repeal replace bill in 2016. i learned quickly that policy didn't matter. this was an environment that was vicious a

we also have john kasich, the former republican governor from ohio.y have been dangling this possibility for months now. is there any chance they actually go for it now right as they are wrapping up this round of public hearings? >> there is certainly a chance, wolf, but it is not likely. you are seeing different members of the select committee voicing things that not necessarily everybody else sees the same way or they have had a unified discussion about. it is certainly an option. as you say, we have had a signal this is going to be it in terms of hearings, at least for a couple weeks, possibly entirely until the fall. it would be hard to issue a subpoena to former president trump and former vice president mike pence and get them to comply very quickly. >> i think you are right. governor kasich, the committee has heard from those around trump and pence. how much would the investigation really benefit for a fight for trump's testimony? >> i think, wolf, we have a lot of people who agreed to go to the committee and they can feel more comfortable going

republicans saying this guy is running the worst campaign in the year and we need to deal with john kasichnificant amount of money. i guess the question is there a possibility that republicans have overplayed their hand with some of these astroturf phony candidates and they may lose seats that they shouldn't lose this fall despite the fact that they have gerrymandered district and engaged in amazing voter suppression? >> i mean, i guess anything is possible to answer that question. what's interesting to me is the transformation of j.d. vance. let's keep in mind you're not talking about this years ago. this is a guy who wrote the great book, right, describing the trump voters that we talk about so frequently today, the gentleman who was on cnn frequently, was on msnbc frequently, typically brought on as the quasi-expert, if you will, on who these people are, why they think the way they do, their grievance and why they are so tethered to trump now has done a 360 and then you have on the other side tim ripe, by all accounts a moderate democrat who i actually think can speak to some of those m
