let me ask charles cook, and it's the question for everybody. ready?f you had a matchup come this november, it is this november, between sanders and trump, who would win? charles cook? >> oh, i think trump would win, because i think he'd moderate. i think he would use the republican tool kit to destroy sanders for being a socialist, and i think on questions of american strength and greatness, he would just about prevail. >> radikah, who would win? >> is there a write-in candidate? >> no. it's a choice, one or the other, binary. >> one or the other. i'm going to say trump would win that contest, because i think he's ideologically kind of in the middle already. >> right. >> and jonathan? who wins? >> i think sanders would win. >> when? >> very, very narrowly. >> i don't think people care -- >> give me the states that sanders would beat trump in? i'm curious, besides vermont. >> i think he would beat him in most of the obama states. >> in pennsylvania, you would say -- pennsylvania and ohio, virginia would vote for sanders? >> i think that it would be ver

while "national review" writer charles cook called it embarrassing, dishonest and weak. candidate did not pile on, however, and that was donald trump. here's what he had to say on fox news. >> i think he was sincere. i mean, it's a thing that he feels -- you know, i think he's incorrect about it. they're just taking chunks and chunks out of the second amendment. but, you know, i think he probably means well. you know, the concept is wrong. what they're doing, it's a mental health, we have a huge mental health problem. >> so let's talk about this some more. i'm joined by al cannon, he's the sheriff from charleston county, south carolina. welcome, sir. >> thank you, carol. good morning and happy new year. >> happy new year to you, too. sir, is the president using emotion to promote his political agenda? >> well, carol, interestingly, i'm not sure i heard the president say anything a whole lot different than he has in the past. i will quickly add that i think insofar as upgrading and updating the fbi data sources for the system is a good idea. that's something that should b

you did it to your point charles cook, a conservative writer. been on the show a lot.id if i was a gun control advocate, i would be disappointed. you have people like joe saying i don't disagree with the sentiment of the president. i think the president would say we've tried to do it with congress. >> by the way, pat's name was brought up before. he would support this stuff. he doesn't support the president. >> it's how they do it by executive order. >> that's the only way to get it done. that's where the frustration is. it's when the president does all of this by executive order. they're pushing back. that's one of the things that infuriates conservatives. it's one of the things that helps donald trump. the government keeps doing these big things. >> it doesn't work any other way. people are going to get guns and if they're crazy they're going to kill. if the president had a better relationship with congress they would get things done. >> one thing, everybody knows if you're a liberal and wondering why the president didn't do more, the reason is they felt burned by th
