nikki is a terrific spokesperson for the administration. situations change. you shouldn't read too much into this. there are classified issues, i'm not prepared to go through all these as the president said we're prepared to be very tough on russia. we've been very tough, as you've said. these russian sanctions were more impactful than anything before and whether we use military tools or whether we use economic tools we will constantly adjust these strateg ies based upon things that maybe going on behind the scenes that we don't want to

[applause] >> nikki, nikki, nikki, nikki, nikki, nikki, nikki. >> we love you nikki. gov.i have your back, too. this is not about identity politics. i do not believe in that. isa not believe in glass ceilings either. i believe in creating a country where anyone can do anything and achieve their own american dream. the college student who is paying too much and getting too little from her education. young adult in his first real job, wondering how he will ever afford a mortgage or start a family. a single mother working two jobs and three times harder than everyone else. the small-town dad who saw his factory leave town and thinks that his future went with it. i am fighting for all of us because all of us have to be in this together. but here this. unity does not come from faith parts or watered-down compromises. that just leaves everybody wanting more. real national unity comes from boldly proclaiming our national purpose and persuading opponents to join us. my purpose is to save our country from the downward spiral of socialism and defeatism. i aim to move america upwards

now they're spending money on nikki haley, the attack ads against nikki haley that shows she is emerginga final and most formidable challenger trundle trauma we were showing that ad from the supporting nikki haley our guest is with us and will take calls. this is karen in virginia, independent line starting it off. you were on with our guest. good morning. >> caller: thanks for taking my call. my concern is with how divided america is right now. whomever is chosen to be our next president i'm concerned with our position globally with all that's going on around the world and our position in the global market. so i'm just wondering where the candidates how are they going to bring america back to its position how we were so strong and dominant prior to write after world war ii and where we are now as far as our global position. >> guest: that's a great question. you are seeing in the american electorate writ large amylase, since the what remove themselves from the world. he saw this, trump moved us and wanted to get out of nato and still feels that and to this day despite the war going on i

let's take -- >> nikki! nikki! nikki! nikki! nikki! nikki!ikki: the best way we take care of our veterans is we make sure we do telehealth so they get the mental health care they need right when they need it. let's let them go to the doctor or hospital of their choice, they've earned that right. and i think the best way we deal with veteran health care, i think every member of congress should have to get their health care from the v.a. and you watch how fast that gets fixed. [applause] it will be the best health care you've ever seen, guaranteed. and then we need to focus on national security. and you know the part that no one understands, everybody says, why doesn't america understand national security? don't blame americans. because right now the president and congress don't tell people why ukraine matters. they don't tell people why israel matters. they don't tell people about north korea or china. when i'm president, i will overcommunicate and tell you absolutely everything. [cheers and applause] but you look right now, the world is on fi

thank you, nikki. >> ambassador haley, you listed longer compliments why would you want to leave that are behind? is it really a personal decision because you been away from your family for so long? >> my family is very supportive. no, there's no personal reason that it is very important for government officials to understand when it is time to step aside. i have given everything i've got these last eight years. i do think that sometimes it's good to rotate in other people who can put that same energy and power into it. there really is a lot of people will want to say there's reasons why am leaving but the truth is i will make sure this demonstration has the strongest person to fight. it was a blessing to go into the un with body armor everyday. i will always do that. i will never truly step aside from fighting for our country but i will tell you i can give time. >> why make the announcement now as opposed to after the midterms? >> nikki will stay to the end of the year which will be about two years. i

nikki haley has a little more momentum. if she can finish in second place and translate that into an outright when against strong, that would set up a super tuesday in south carolina. host: as you talk about new hampshire as a corrective against iowa, how does that play against iowa. guest: iowa is still sensitive that they lost the democratic caucus. nikki haley is certainly playing for new hampshire. the electorate is more moderate and tailor-made for nikki haley. if there is a state that donald trump is the weakest in its new hampshire. host: here an ad for a super pac's supporting donald trump against nikki halley. [video clip] >> nikki haley even opposed trump's wall and pushed for amnesty. we don't need to call them criminals because they are not. host: they are probably seeing plenty of those as but what is the messaging there? guest: that is a hard-hitting message against nikki haley. border security is submerging the top issue for republican voters. even democratic mayors so worried about immigrants impacting their

thank you, nikki. nikki: thank you. president trump: than thank youy much, everybody. mikecretary of state pompeo spoke briefly at the white house praising the efforts haley.me can i he begans the brief remarks with kim jong-un in pyongyang. mike. good afternoon, everyone. how are you all doing? want say two things quickly. first, i returned late last night from north korea from a trip where we made real progress while there is still a long way to go and much work to do we can we'll achieve the ultimate goal which is the final korea.arization of north i want to thank chairman kim for the time i got spend with him about the range of issues in front of two countries that will let us get there and appreciated the inesident

so it's very hard to predict, especially today what nikki is going to do. if she's a good republican, then that would be a smart idea and probably showing up back in a cabinet position, maybe. but i don't think at this stage, the rip is there too, too much, and i, if she was any hope of being and twice way she is gonna have to play nice. but the same time she's got a lot of mega donors that would be very upset with her for caving in in find to the pressure like so many others that stephanie who's thank you so much host of the 360 . it was a pleasure to have you on the show. thank you. thank you for having me or your printer, missile strike on sunday needs destruction. it's past the attack, claimed the lives of at least 27 civilians. and when did many more r t for respondents div sweeney reports from the c. on sunday, this marketplace was busy with the local was doing that daily shopping. it was a bright, sunny day, much like today. around 10 am. the hustle and bustle gave way to cairo's, as you cried, new miss all strike killed. 27 people for them died here

i wanted to thank nikki, and this seemed appropriate.hen you write it out on a piece of paper and say nice things, people say what is going on? this is the right way to do it. when you think somebody has done a terrific job, this is an appropriate way of doing it. i would just want to thank the ambassador, nikki. >> who are thinking about for a successor. pres. trump: we have a number of people who are in line. she has made it a much better position. it has become a more glamorous position than it was two years ago. she has made it -- made it a more important position. many people who want to do it, and they are good people. about be talking to nikki that, and to the general about that, but we have many people who are very much interested in doing it. >> are you frustrated like a lack of actual announcements? pres. trump: i am not frustrated, and i think it is incredible what is happening. it is amazing that the media -- who are you with? 24.rance pres. trump: it is amazing. for 80 years they cannot do a thing and i am in three months of

now theat money is on nikki haly to attack ads are against nikki haley.ows they are emerging as the most formidable challenger. >> both supported nikki haley but our gases with us we will take some calls. cara in virginia, independent one starting off. you are almost sarcastic. good morning. >> good morning, thank you for taking my calls. my concern is how divided america is right now. whomever is chosen to be our next president opposition globally with all its gone on her around the world and our position in the global market. i just wondering where the candidate, how will they bring america back to its position prior to world war iier and whee we are now with global position brickwork that's a great question. they went to remove themselves in the world but was also the trump movement would trump was wanted to get out of nato. despite the war going on in ukrainein, on the campaign trail the democratic party has always had a pretty hefty string of isolationism. at the very least a awareness of wars the hawkish tendency in american politics. but when you t

and then you have the nikki haley in 20202019. that really kind of succumbed to the pressure to kiss the ring of trump. and you know, even just in the past several weeks she was on the campaign trail for so many of those super right wing mag a republican. so i think it depends on which hailey we get if, if she comes out in this presidential campaign more closely aligned with the hailey of 2016. that was speaking out against the trump direction of the republican party . then she's great. if she's not, then it's going to be challenging. i think the question that we're going to see as we get further into the campaign is, who is the least bad though? is that as sad as that? that sounds, that's kind of what the republican politics has become, and maybe haley is the least bad option for public and donors. given that history of an ambivalence of sorts towards donald trump right distancing herself from him, but then cozying up to him. and could she be maybe the one tell the g o p move on from the mag politics without alienating trump spac

welcome to the day nikki haley was one south carolina's 1st female governor. does she have what it takes to become the 1st female u. s. president? you know, i wish that i could tell you absolutely. yes i'm at this point. i am very excited to see it. any woman, quite frankly, as a republican candidate for president, i think nicki's real challenge right now. and you know, we're seeing a lot of this and, and focus groups that were doing, you know, nikki, comes off to voters as that old school kind of establishment, swing voter, republican. if you recall in 2016, she came out as being very anti trump. and so i think she appeals to those republicans and it's, it's the flip side that i think is going to be the challenge for her to become president. and those, those 2 time trump voters, you know, they, they want a candidate that is kind of looking forward to these culture war fights. you know, the kinds of things that marjorie taylor green has has become so so, so famous for what donald trump had kind of made his entire campaign on. and the kinds of things that have

but i'm a pessimist, so i'm sorry i'm not as enthusiastic about nikki haley as nikki haley is. >> mikeesident biden's campaign was essentially dead until south carolina, so the calls for her to get out now seem premature. >> if i were to respond to that -- >> i didn't know who you are asking. >> i didn't know, either. but i wouldn't say it's premature at all. considering the fact that it's a two-person race. we are talking about joe biden and his multiple candidates in that particular primary. so, given the fact that so many other candidates have dropped out of the race, i think this is clear that this is a two-person race and the second person, nikki haley, has lost each race. i know a lot of her donors, some have said even on our network yesterday that, if haley didn't outright win this primary contest, that they were going to stop supporting her and they would put their dollars behind donald trump. i think you will see a coalescing of donors around donald trump. there are people who may not like his personality and some of the things he said, but he let his policy, and therefore the

mike pompeo thinks the world of nikki. we are all happy for you in one way, but we hate to lose you. hopefully, you will come back at some point, may be in another capacity. at the end of the year, nikki will be leaving. we will be in constant touch. you know all the players. that's what she did best, she got to know the players. she got to know china, russia, india. she knows everybody on a first r,me basis and they like he except for maybe a couple. warm partly, they respect her -- more importantly, they respect her. we will miss you. we will be speaking all the time. you've done a fantastic job and i want to thank you very much. ambassador haley: i want to thank the president for allowing us to come out and talk to you this way. it has been an honor of a lifetime. i was such a lucky girl to have been able to lead the state that raised me and to survey country i love so very much. it has been a blessing. i'm most excited -- look at the two years. now, the united states is respected, countries may not like what we do, but

he beat nikki haley by 50 points.hat's a reminder, it's hard to win a republican nominating contest if you are losing republicans by 50 points. as we look ahead -- jeff and kate alluded to this -- the calendar. the calendar here is something. we are done now with new hampshire. that was right here. you have all these days left in january. you have all this time before south carolina. nevada notwithstanding and the virgin islands, a favorite of kate bolduan's and mine. this is a ton of real estate. this is a ton of time to weather attacks if you are nikki haley. a lot of things can happen during that time. a lot of them, they're not great. one other thing i want to point out that's of concern to some trump supporters is this number right here. i put it side by side with this. yes, he won. but in our exit poll, we asked, if trump is the nominee, would you be dissatisfied but not support? would you not support him if he was the nominee? look at this. republicans, 19% of republican voters said they would not support donal

all we likely to see nikki haley and door stroke. that might be a cold day in mos guide and they're probably very cold there right now. uh that should be fixed. yeah, i think if you remember i q, i said she was never gonna get the present to raise the 1st place. so it's very hard to predict, especially today, what mickey is going to do. if she's a good republican, been that would be a smart idea and probably showing up back in a cabinet position maybe. but i don't think at this stage, the repairs is there too too much. and i, if she was any hope of being in twice the way she is gonna have to play nice for the same time. she's got a lot of mega donors that would be very upset with her for and caving in in find to the pressure like so many others that oh, you create a missile strike on sunday, leaves destruction in its path. the attack claimed the lives of at least 27 siblings, and when did many more archie correspondents to sweeney reports from the scene on sunday. this marketplace was busy with local was doing that daily shopping. it

nikki haley will be nikki haley. she'll be real. she'll be authentic.icies of president trump were phenomenal. look at what we're facing now. and haley and all the others will put into effect the sound policies that donald trump did. and so-so no, i don't think she'll differentiate herself. i think she'll lay out a division of priorities that the country will like, and it will be just what america needs now. it's going to take a lot to turn this ship around, and i think she is the person to do it. i saw her do it in south carolina, and i think she'll do it for south carolina. >> there is another south carolinian in the race, the junior senator representing south carolina in the u.s. senate, tim scott. what made you decide to go with nikki haley when you have another person who you serve with in the congress running for president? >> well, i mean, i served with tim scott a short time when he came in the house. symptom a great friend of mine, a great guy. i just think nikki haley has what it takes. her personal skills, her retail politics. but i think wha

nikki should be our next president. >> once you hear nikki haley, you are in with nikki haley.cans, who have all fallen in love. here is the difference with nikki haley. she does what she says. you saw her, she has a plan. whether it is the economy, whether it is abortion, whether it is our borders, whether it is our kid's education. we are driving her to 1600 pennsylvania avenue. women. >> where are you going to be tomorrow night? >> i will be at my precinct speaking for n >> discover the heartbeat of democracy as we ask what issues most important to you in this election and why. >> i am from denver, colorado and the most important issue to me this election cycle would have to be climate change. of issues i am really passionate about and i think need to be addressed, but climate change is something that is affecting our whole world. yeah, it is something my generation is going to have to live with for a long time. >> i am from cincinnati, ohio and the issue most important to me is definitely transparency in government. i believe the government is meant to be in service to the

he was sort of overshadowing nikki haley. also overshadowed john bolton, and the president loves him because pompeo is so tough on iran. so that voice, that viewpoint, is going to grow stronger. >> okay. >> no question. we have richard roth at the u.n. of course, ambassador haley's home base for a couple years now. speak about moderating influences. also confidence building influence that nikki haley gave to u.s. allies. >> look, she presented a very good look politically or otherwise for the united states at the u.n. and when she guided president trump around the u.n. two weeks ago at the special general assembly, it was like presenting him with look at where you are. they scheduled extra meetings almost as if to say to president trump, the u.n. is not so bad. there's a meeting we're going to do on drugs you care about and the opioid epidemic and a meeting on iran, but we're not going to call it about iran. we're going to broaden it out. also in the streets of new york and elsewhere, nikki haley was one of the few people in

i want to congratulate ron and nikki. they are very smart people, very capable people. >> that was so last week. goodness. and while trump did win last night, exit polls did underscore the warning signs haley spent weeks trying to highlight. he does have a strong grip on the republican party, but a glaring weakness among independents and suburban voters. omar jimenez is live for us in manchester, new hampshire. the primary in south carolina one month out. where do things stand? >> reporter: election night comes and goes so fast. donald trump wasted no time telling nikki haley essentially this primary process is over after winning his second state in a row. that said, nikki haley wanted a two person race. she got it and despite the results here, she says she is not going anywhere. former president trump victorious in new hampshire. paving the way for him to clinch the republican nomination for the third time. >> when you win iowa, and you win new hampshire, they have never had a loss. so we're not going to be the first. >>

haley and would vote for nikki haley if nikki haley was the nominee? my knee but they're not going to be that big of a part of this primary. a lot of the polling showed that folks who are liberals and moderates very much prefer nikki haley, but maybe there'll be ten to 2010 to 15% or something of the electorate here. but by enlarge, it is trump country in south carolina and listen, nikki haley has every right to continue, as she said, she would in that sort of that prebuttal speech she gave earlier last week, she's got money, as gloria said, but the problem is, if you can't win at home, right in a state that you one of a governorship of twice, if you can't win there with people who know you best then how do you win down the line? super tuesday is coming up in a weaker so many, many delegates up, i think something like 800 or up. how does she go forward and make the case to folks in states like michigan? given that it's march 5. exactly. so i think she's got a real a hard row to hoe going forward, but she'll stay in and listen. she'll continue to critiq

we are sleepwalking -- think about this. >> nikki haley says -- >> nikki haley would beat joe biden byble digits. >> would you vote for nikki haley over joe biden? >> i want to vote for a democrat. we are putting ourselves in a position where a lot of democrats are going to have to think about that. you know what happened last night here in new hampshire? democrats voted for the republican, not for joe biden. they voted for nikki haley. >> that's donald trump's argument, which is not true. you would have had to change your registration. >> 8% did. a giant number of independents who vote for democrats -- there was a superpac trying to convince them to vote for nikki haley. your question should ask other democrats. that's the point. they didn't vote for joe biden. >> tell me about what you have done on the ground in south carolina. what outreach have you done to the african american black leaders in the state who are so critical to the party there? >> you are right. we have wonderful things planned. i'm not going to share them. we have good surprises. >> how long are you in this? >> unti

patrick begins testing with nikki, a hung garron only fence create to make his bio promised. i respond to every message personally, patrick opened up to nikki about everything from sexual fantasies to the shed, love for pets. overtime he fell in love. nikki texted that she felt the same, but this romance came with the price tax. patrick spent nearly $7000.00 bureaus in total on what he thought was a real love affair. apart from paying for personal sex videos, patrick also said nickie money for medicine and car repass. patrick even gave for a monthly allowance of about $200.00 euro for a while. unfortunately, that wasn't just one. the key, the creator had employed so called checked us to message fence on her behalf, even though her bio said otherwise. this isn't a rare case, it can happen to use us across the world where only fence is available is only fence supporting a fraudulent system. only sans has become a huge the profitable business. it has over 200000000 uses. 87 percent of them, a man, they spend billions of us on the platform. but for most create us, it's not easy m

nikki haley won that buy 31 points, pete.magine that donald trump can't lose independents in the united states by 31 points in a general election and win. so how much of a warning sign is this going forward? and alongside that, nikki haley, there's some reporting this morning from david drucker and michael warren, that her speech was designed to bait donald trump into, you know, acting out, being rude. and it worked, right? so how does that play with these independents, these moderates, that he is losing in right now? >> it doesn't take a lot to bait donald trump. i think you just have to run against him to accomplish that goal. but i think she's running the strategy of 15 or 20 years ago to say, oh, look, he's attacking me, that means he must feel threatened. we know that donald trump doesn't follow the normal rules of politics. typically, we say you punch up. if you're behind, you go after the leader in the campaign. donald trump he punches down, he punches left, he punches right, he punches in every single direction. that'

nikki haley.he served as south carolina's governor for six years and was hoping for an upset in her home state after resounding defeats in previous contests. but once again it was donald trump giving a victory speech tonight, while a defiant nikki haley promised her supporters that she will continue to fight for the nomination. now we're a laughing stock all over the world. our country is going to be respected again, respected like never before. cheering and applause so, this is a fantastic evening. it's an early evening and a fantastic, so you can all go down and you can celebrate for about 15 minutes and we have to get back to work. i said earlier this week that no matter what happens in south carolina, i would continue to run for president. cheering and applause i'm a woman of my word. cheering and applause now to helena humphrey, who's been following the days events from charleston, south carolina. nikki haley taking the stage earlier. what did you make of her speech and her message to her sup

a lot of the speculation right now, how much is nikki? haley have to lose by for her to potentially drop out within the next 48 hours every but she is already skipping the next cart primary or caucus, which is in nevada. she's not even go on the ballot and going straight to her home state of south carolina for every single elected official in south carolina except for one congressman as endorse donald trump. so more than likely, she's not going to do fairwell even in her own home state. somebody reminds of yours and i'm sure they solve eclipse. just 2 weeks ago, nikki, is sold to iowa by saying new hampshire fixes. i always problem. i mean, new hampshire has always been where nikki haley was forward to take her stand and hopefully have momentum. i am laughing listing at some of the punches today here in the western media state. oh, but if she comes between with the only loses by 5 points, that's momentum. it is an absolute joke to think. anybody who lose it, especially when you've had a large dominating race of, or percentage points of do

would you rather see nikki haley or ron desantis tonight? >> i think tonight, nikki haley. i feel like the momentum is with her. something like this, the momentum is beneficial on caucus night. again, i say that with the caveat. were going to have caveats all night but the caveat that ron desantis, this is his stand. he has to come in second or he's out. i will also say with that, if he comes in second tonight, the chance of having anybody but donald trump. it's only nikki haley that could be at this point, then it becomes basically donald trump is the nominee. nikki haley has to have momentum coming out of tonight. out of new hampshire for any prayer of her to gain momentum anywhere else. right now, it is donald trump. >> you watch, you live in florida. you know him. he has visited all 99 counties. he says every hour, all 99 in iowa. why is he fighting so hard to come in second place? >> maybe because he has spent too much time in iowa and they have gotten to know him and seeing what i have been saying for a long time which there is no it there when it comes to ron desanti

nikki?d nikki sticks around to the end of all of these. but she had left and i had the note. i thought i will do better than that. i will read the note i was given to you. i promise that is short. here is the note. its, hi. i am aria. i'm 10 years old. i wanted to be the first girl president, but i could settle for second. if i was old enough i would vote for you. so we have the honor of introducing the first girl woman president of the united states of america, nikki haley. ♪ rising up, back on the street ♪ did my time, took my chances ♪ distance, now i'm back on my feet ♪ just a man in his will to survive ♪ >> get excited! you know, i first want to say, let's start with ralph norman, my dear friend ralph. i do not know where you are. there you are. a good congressional member of the freedom caucus who fights every day not just for south carolina, but for america. ralph was with me when i ran for governor when nobody else was with me. he supported me when i was ambassador. now he's with me

i think nikki, nikki haley will come and 2nd, if i had to guess would be nikki haley. i'm just because she's had the most exposure. she's tough on the border. she doesn't have the extremities of donald trump. she's more rational. and she's child number goods. i have a feeling the outcome is going to be overwhelmingly support a truck. the polls are wrong. we, we often see these polls and they think that the mainstream media is going to be able to decide who's going to be elected. and i've been through a lot of i will caucus is and there's always a surprise that there's a doubt that donald trump will be the frontrunner. the crucial question is a former south carolina governor and nikki haley can finish ahead of florida governor rhonda dentist effectively. and they just run tonight, this would leave republicans, a choice between trump and tayley and the race for the nomination open to more surprises than initially predict. and so that correspondence, janelle a do more who is a freezing bass, so you don't have to a welcome. janelle is missing the hiring. we're going to exp

it's a great position, and nikki realizes it. i think she's helped make it a much better position if you want to know the truth. i think it's become maybe a more glamorous position than it was two years ago, maybe, i wonder why, but it is. i mean, she's made it a very glamorous position, she's made it a more important -- more importantly and more important position. we have -- i can almost say many people want to do it, and they're very good people, and i'll be talking also to nikki about that and to the general about that and my staff. we have many people that are very, very much interested in doing this. >> were you frustrated by the lack of actual announcements -- >> not only am i not frustrated, i think it's incredible what's happening. you're talking about north korea? it's amazing the way the media -- >> who are you with? >> it's amazing the way the media says for 80 years they couldn't do a thing, and what are we in, three month os of negotiations? it's ridiculous. you have no rockets flying. you have no missiles flying. y

i just seek nikki, nikki, nikki. in my whole heart i want to believe or not being biased and i'm not going to assume that you are, but boy, it sure is tough to believe that. i'm having a hard time. host: yesterday, the home state primaries this weekend. if there is a time to talk about it, it seems like today if the data do it. are you with us? caller: yeah, yeah. yeah. what are you telling me here? host: do you think this debate isn't happening in the republican party? do you think is being overplayed, i guess? caller: i'm sorry, i can't follow, i'm not following you. i don't understand what were asking me. i'm sorry, i don't want to take up all your time here or anybody else's time. host: all right. we will go to greg in riverside, california, good morning. caller: good morning, how are you doing? host: good. caller: i am in my garage. i voted for trump twice and i will not be voting for him a third time mainly based on a lot of people from supporters talk about with policy. what policy? a gentleman called earlier

ambassador nikki haley there saying that while the 30-day

ambassador for now nikki haley. one member of republican leadership just said, john thune, saying he had no idea that this resignation announcement was going to be coming from nikki haley. he said on fox news he was with a member of the senate foreign relations committee last night. nobody had a clue this was dropping until about two and a half hours ago or so. interesting stuff that it was a surprise to senators. i don't think we have andrea mitchell so i'll turn that question to you guys. >> it sort of goes to the reality tv show aspect of the trump administration. again, we don't know if she decided super late or if she just informed the president last night or this morning. i'm sure we'll get the reporting on that. the fact he set up this meeting. the fact they have had this love fest in the oval office. the fact he teased it ahead of time that there was a leak to sort of get some excitement about it goes to the overall showman aspect the president likes. >> successor to be named within two or three weeks the pr

"tt2 netherlands is famous about the legal aspect of this. tt2 netherlands is famous for its liberal approach to soft drugs cannabis is illegal in the netherlands and small amounts, for personal use are tolerated and so, if you have it on yourself for personal consumption, less than five grams, please turn a blind eye but substances like marijuana cannot be taken out of the country. so, there is still an ongoing debate about the status of cannabis in the netherlands and it is still illegal, kind of a quirk in t

and nikki haley stands alone. and i think it's worth pointing out that of those three and you wouldn't have known any of the stuff at the time, nikki haley is of those three, she's john more principle and more strength in, at least in the past few months than i've seen for the other shoe. >> if only one correction to that, there's a fourth person on the stage and that famous picture, trey gowdy, and he left congress a lot of people, mike gallagher, i think could have been one of the great leaders of the republican party is leaving congress lots of people left. ben sasse left before his term was out. it is not a remotely pleasant place to be a sane republican. and that's the thing is that donald trump has always made it clear he would rather be the undisputed unified head of a rump gop then the head of a majority party. now i personally think both parties have this weird death wish kind of impulse to try to cling to the idea of being minority parties rather than being majority parties. but republican party has it m
