my daughter jackie did a great commercial for me and both my daughters campaigned for me. i think ivanka is effective in that ad. i also like that it is not cluttered. just from what i could hear that the cruz super pac ad was way too cluttered where i think she is very clear. she talks in a way that everybody is going to understand. again, on newly they discount a little bit because daughters love their fathers. but i think that's a pretty effective ad. and i think it further puts trump along with jerry falwell's]h comments yesterday puts him in a position where people have doubts and say i'm going to take a gamble on this guy. >> mr. speaker, always a pleasure. thank you for giving us your endorsement of a candidate which is no candidate yet. >> we will keep trying. >> that's my job. i try every night. when we come back, a lot more tonight on this busy news night on hannity. >> christianity is under siege, david, as you understand very well from covering it so well. we have to do something and band together. >> they want us to be ashamed of our faith. >> it scares them we need to speak

thing his campaign is doing this morning, john, another video was tweeted out featuring his daughter, ivankamp, explaining to voters how to go to caucus sites, show up caucus night and make sure they go through the process correctly, even pointing out to caucus goers that you have to register as a republican to participate on caucus night and on the gop side of things. i think that goes to show you there are some concerns inside the donald trump campaign as to whether or not all these new voters he is attracting, packs auditoriums, basketball arenas around the country, whether those folks actually show up and vote, we will get a better sense where the race stands later this evening when the des moines register poll comes out. that will be a good measure in terms of where things stand in the race, and whether or not this phenomenon we have seen in the last year of donald trump rising to top of the pack in the gop race for the white house is actually going to pan out into some kind of victory caucus night. it will be the political story to watch the next 48 hours, john. >> jim acosta, the grea
