five of the eight members received over there are 50,000 from donald ump. you can't fund open border democrats and say you're going to secure the border and stop illegal immigration. >> you have made that point about him supporting democrats for weeks. it doesn't seem to be sticking. why nonot? >> listen, i think we're seeing real movement in the polls. we won in iowa. i think on super tuesday, we'll have a good night. it was striking at the debate this week, when donald trump does agreed with me. number on on israel. neutral between israel and the palestinians. i strongly disagree. if i'm president, america will stand unapologetically with israel. he said, ted, you have to be willing to cut deals. compromise. i'll tell you right now. i'll tell the people at home. i'm not going to compromise on the bill of rights. i'm n going to bargain away your second amendment rights and sit down with harry reid or chuck schumer and agree on supreme court nominees. we need a president who will invest the political capital to defend your constitutional liberties. donald t

less is known about donald di ump's reound game and whether he'll crush e caucus. >> i like that he kind of has the no bs. >> reporter: or lose to cruz who's reportedly built a formidable get out the vote operation. a rare sight today, empty chairs at a trump rally. he's not used to seeing that and posted a mot ational video on facebook today. >> i want you to get out and vote. >> i guess trump is the one that impresses ne me the most. >> reporter: not all trump's supporters will caucus tonight. some are intimidated by the in your face caucus process. >> the darn thing rings offer x or seven times every evening. >> reporter: governor chris christie is in sixth place in the most recent poll. iowa voters are entertained by him. >> listening to him this evening. >> reporter: he's hoping for a surprise tonight and a better showing in new hampshire next week. >> being a leader at this time in our nation's history is an extraordinary challenge because we've been failed by leaders before. >> reporter: as the saying goes here, there are only three tickets out of iowa, meaning if a candidate does

are you going to be up to having to make a new and tougher case agnst donald ump? and what is it? >> look, a primary is an ongoing conversation. everyone in the media said trump would win iowa. we, then, had the largest turnout. earned more votes in iowa than any republican in history. last night, one of the m most encourages results, our campaign wonoung people in south carolina. we won young people in iowa. two statates in row that we won young people. new hampshirire, we we in second place with young people. you want to talk about where the excitementnt, the energy is, young people want a brighter future. theyant jobs. they want their konks constitution -- consistent tugt constitutional rights protected. marco was endorsed by the popular governor and senator and all the establishment circled their wagons around marco. me still only came in second. frankly, if i had done that in iowa, look in iowa, we had the heavy hitters come behind our campaign. if he had come in second or third, you guys would have barbecued us for having all the big hitter behind us and not winning. we won

>> schieffer: you know, i was listening to donald d ump this morning he was mr. nice guy. he was almost humble talking about, no, he doesn't have it wrapped up, running against very good people. i think donald trump is the favorite to get the republican nomination to put it in one sentence. he didn't win here in south carolina by as much as some people thought he would in the beginning. but it was a good solid victory. he goes in to super tuesday in nevada in a very strong position. but i also think that marco rubio is right when he said and toll you this morning, look, this is now a three-man race. i think for the first time it is. and i think with the race winnowing down as it issdonald trump may wind up getting the nomination but he's not going to cruise to it, john. out and going to be really good race from here on in, i think. >> dickerson: usually it's a loss that hum bells you maybe in his case it's the opposite. what do you think in donald trump's case actually -- how would you stop it? how can he be -- how can he be stopped? >> well, you heard marco rubio say today

if donald ump wins a whole bunch of states, let's say he wins ten of them, while the others may be amassing kind of snowballing of the trump victories and the question then becomes will people join behind his campaign? there is some sign that is happening. >> certainly some questions we will be asking at this table should that happen. john dickerson, thank you. on sunday he will talk with senator ted cruz on "face the nation." >>> democrats vote in south carolina tomorrow and recent polls give clinton and overwhelming lead. she attacked sanders gun control record yesterday near a church where nine people were murdered last summer. >> we need to close the gun show loophole and the online loophole and what is called the charleston loophole. which my opponents supported, which means at the end of three days, whether the background check is done or not, you get the gun. that's what the killer here in charleston did. >> "the new york times" this morning calls for clinton to release transcripts of her paid wall street speeches. an editorial says voters have every right to know what clinton told t
