eric. eric: democratic candidates across the country especially those in tight midterm races, they are breaking with president biden over plan to forgive $10,000 per student in college debt for those making less than $125,000. among those candidates is tim ryan, he's running for the senate in ohio. >> i think a targeted approach right now really does send the wrong message. there's a lot of people out there making 30, 40 grand a year that didn't go to college and they need help as well which is why i have been proposing tax cut for working people that will affect everybody and with the student loan piece you could very easily allow them to negotiate, renegotiate down the interest rates. eric: but supporters of of the president said they will give relief of those suffering under the crushing debt. lucas tomlinson live at the white house on the north lawn to the president's college loan executive decision, luck's. lucas: congressman tim ryan, small and democrats speaking out about the preside

in a race with multiple erics, without specifying which eric he was endorsing.rics bragged that they had been endorsed by trump, a man who, again, is not only under multiple active criminal investigations for inciting a coup to overthrow american democracy, but is also beginning to look less like a former president and more like the nick nolte mugshot [ laughter ] i mean is his head getting smaller or is his hat getting bigger [ laughter ] it looks like his hat is some kind of organism feeding on his blood. look how pale he is. he looks like he's starring in the next martin mcdonagh film as the ghost of an irish priest, opposite colin farrell [ laughter ] look, i know they say all presidents age rapidly, but trump looks like he's halfway through a "raiders of the lost ark" face melt [ laughter ] it's like he opened the ark, his face started to melt, but then he slammed it shut real fast, but then his face just stayed that way "the ark of the covenant, we love the ark, we love the ark, don't we folks they told me not to open it, but we had to open it because many

( laughter ) turns out the dude even brings infidelity into his endorsements. he's the first politician to have a side eric.

for those of you watching me and eric hung out on betrayal in iowa in particular because eric has so much there but that's what happens when uric president to candidate, you hang out with other presidential candidates, build relationships. one of the things we both fell out on betrayal was when you go to talk to people where they are, they are not as divided as our media environment might suggest. i think c-span is a perfect envelope because c-span's were people come together given their political alignment. when you get into fox university msnbc universe, it's like you are in separate worlds. tempt to people together and bring the world that people on c-span to where they are. when we're out there with people in iowa and elsewhere. >> would you go back on tuckers show? >> i got a number of messages from supporters saying their parents for the first time , they wanted to see me on the show, they saw an ad. that alone made me a figure of interest.i think we're going to have to make moves like that ifwe're genuinely going to bring people of different alignments together . >> what struc

you have eric schmidt, the more moderate eric. he's been attacking the right, trying to sman who will carry on the maga politics. but then you have the embattled former governor eric greitens. he resigned in disgrace just 18 months after he was inaugurated. he's accused of sexual abuse, domestic abuse, but donald trump jr. -- emphasis on the junior, he is supporting him. that's why some think the president thought he was going to be endorsing eric greitens. we should also note that there is a third eric in this race, because ari, it's just one of those races that's wild, and you can't make this stuff up. i have been talking to voters who say this is confusing. it's also a little entertaining to them. i did talk to one other voter who said she's worried that president trump has all this influence in a race like this. she want candidates to be talking about middle class values and the economy and abortion rights and other things and not talking about former president trump every single minute of the day. she told me in her own words

did he mean eric greitens or eric schmidt. donald trump trying to be cute here in a very important phrase, republicans are not happy with this. both eric schmidt, by the way, the attorney general and eric greitens the governor, back to varying degrees trump's big lie. that's on the ballot again tonight. the democrats believe if he greitens can win this nomination, it might have a shot of picking up the seat. think of the gift that would be. 50/50 united states senate, republicans have a chance to take control. the senate is the most competitive battleground, if you look to governors races, house races, et cetera. if the democrats are in play in missouri after tonight, that is a gift for the democratic party. plain and simple. >> michigan, obviously another important state for the midterms in the next presidential cycle. what are some of the key races there? >> obviously, you have a to the notorious primary there. if governor gretchen whitmer's -- and again trump came in late in the governor's primary, here is endorsing tutor n

eric greitens and attorney general eric schmitt are in a tight race with vicki hartzler. both are saying the former president is supporting them. each posted a statement online thanking trump for his endorsement. a source close to the former president told nbc news, leaving off the last name of the eric he was endorsing was intentional saying it was a quote, epic troll. trolling his own party, i guess. let's bring in washington correspondentam even al sind yo. you spoke with eric greitens and what did he have to say today because of it. >> reporter: well this is really a baffling situation. you have just chaos all around this trump nonendorsement and dual endorse: you're seeing how it is making candidates say and do things that are unusual and unique. you have of course as you noted two erics who are claiming that they were both endorsed by former president trump. eric schmitt told me earlier before this endorsement came out that he was hoping to be the person that would be endorsed, that being the missouri attorney general to try to get the support. he's coming out again

eric: thank you lucas. anita: erickson, the former president supporters are showing up outside above mar-a-logo in florida and trump tower new york city is amenable say fbi surge at the florida home will only help rally republicans around trumps expected presidential bid in 2024, charles watson is live in florida near mar-a-logo with the latest there and i can see you have quite a crowd around you charles. reporter: yes anita, a lot of supporters were president trump out here right now and obviously the president's home at mar-a-logo is not sitting well because he dozens of them out here right now and a lot of them are very angry about what took place at mar-a-logo earlier this week and you can see a lot of them or waving their trump 2020 and 2024 flags with signs and defund the fbi and as you can probably hear from there a lot of cars tuning up and down this road and honking horns and saying, we show our support with president trump and obviously, this is i think ingrid not only supporters out here, the re

is it eric holder? is it eric carter? it could be anyone of them, clapton is up there? eric church?are doing them all? >> he hedged his bets. >> i couldn't help. it >> to scott's point, i think looking at trump's personal win loss record is the wrong metric. because it's not only like his top on the shoulder, it's the fact that he reconfigured the republican coalition over these past six years in a direction that makes it more likely for trump to style candidates to win. the party is more dependent on the kind of voters who respond to a trump appeal, culturally conservative, non urban, non-college, older, evangelical voters and the kind of white collar, culturally moderate voters have been shifting way for the party. the entire baseline -- it is not only who trump endorses, it is who in our system. there are very few candidates anywhere in the country that are running and saying that the party has to move away from him. i know scott and i have argued about this before. but the entire baseline has moved in a trump direction. the implications are not only in the primaries but in the g

there is a third eric in this race.leading candidate, but -- leading eric's, there's another area that we should be keeping our eye on. people that have been talking, to think that it was going to be eric greitens, because donald trump junior, emphasis on the junior, the son of the former president. he has been in support of air greitens. eric schmitt is seen as someone who's moderate, who's been trying to attack the right at certain moments of this race. but not someone who people in the trump world sees a maga loyalist. i never heard anything like, those of covered trump for years. but the fact that we still have this our don't know who's talking about this in tournament, just tells you how much former president trump has influence here, but also he's wielding the power he has over the gop. >> influence power, or just trade in a whole lot of chaos. matthew, i know you recently talked to voters in new hampshire, and i want to share a bit of what the told you with our audience. >> we are seeing here, a phenomenon we hav

trump has endorsed an eric. okay, but which eric did you mean to endorse, sir?eric greitens and eric schmitt both claim trump meant them and trump for his part has yet to clarify, now, on election night. it seems to be causing a lot of chaos and confusion in an already tumultuous race. meanwhile you have the fates of a trio of republicans who voted to impeach then president trump over the insurrection and their seats, well, they hang in the balance tonight. let's get the latest from cnn's national correspondent and anchor of "inside politics," john king is at the magic wall. john, polls have already closed in missouri. what can you tell us about the race there? >> one of the erics, laura, is leading in the senate republican primary. that would be the state attorney general, eric schmitt. only 4% of the vote counted, we need to count a lot of votes tonight. eric schmitt is leading with 40% of the votes. eric greitens, the former governor who resigned in disgrace amid scandal, is running a distant third at the moment with 17.2%. you see a lot of yellow here, congr

in the end state attorney general eric schmitt defeated missouri's disgraced governor eric greitens. in kansas, abortion rights sailed to overwhelming victory with voters voting down a constitutional amendment that would have eroded rights in the state. it was the first statewide vote on abortion since the supreme court overturned roe v. wade and the implications of last night's results have democrats hopeful about the potential midterm impact. our team is covering both results this morning. nbc news correspondent and moderator of washington week on pbs is in st. louis, missouri and dasha burns is in oberlin park, kansas. in the end there could be only one eric. >> certainly, jose, and it was, of course, missouri attorney general eric schmitt who pulled out this victim, who was able to best eric greitens who is the embattled former governor of the state. eric schmitt is someone who is seen as the more moderate of the two ericks and tacked to the right to get the support of former president trump. he is also -- came out against mitch mcconnell being the senate majority leader saying t

but therehe are two eric eric schmidt and eric greitens. vicky hartzler is not nameds eric . she's also in the race.is but looking at some of these numbers in the different counties, a lot offe expertsre who know missouri really well say eric schmitt is poised to have a good night tonight. we will follow these numbers as they come in. as you mentioned, there are just a lot of interesting races, especially in arizona on the governor's side and the senate side. again, trying to take i on the incumbent, mark kelly in arizona. those numbers, even though the polls are going to close, probably not going to get them until about 11:00 p.m. easternbo time. we always want toha make sure that we have all the numbers from arizona john , right there at the big board tonight. thank you.on weck will check back in momentarily. we'll keep you updated as the results continue to pour in tonight. but first tonight, democrats are once again poised to spend a massive, huge, monumentalal amount of your money. and as of now, one senator w stands in their way. the last democrat with a backbone. in is

, there were two erics, eric greitens and eric schmitt. eric schmitt took that endorsement. look at all the yellow throughout the state. if you dip into a couple counties, st. louis county, look at this lead, 58% to his nearest challenger, vicky hartzler. if you just go up here, saint charles county, again, 56%. and then lincoln county, 48%. in some of these counties just a complete blowout. so this was predicted to be very close at one point. this is not close at all for this, so it's a big win for eric schmitt. on the democratic side, it is a bit more of a race, bush valentine versus kuntz. we don't know yet, 56% in, but, again, this senate seat leans towards the republicans heading into this race. if we look at another call tonight, and this is the governor's race, the primary, republican primary in michigan. again, another run away, tudor dixon, who the former president endorsed on friday, she really has dominated this race all across the state of michigan. she will face incumbent governor gretchen whitmer seeking a second term on the

did he mean state attorney general eric schmitt. donald trump trying to be cute in a very important race. both eric's backed to varying degrees trump's big lie. the democrats believe in greitens win the nomination, they might pick up this seat. think of the gift that would be. republicans have a chance to take control. the senate is the most competitive battleground, governor's races, house races, et cetera. the democrats are in play in missouri after tonight that is a gift for the democratic party plain and simple. >> michigan obviously another important state for midterms in the next presidential cycle. what are some of the key races there? >> and so obviously you have a gubernatorial primary there. governor gretchen whitmer is up. let me get to that and bring this up here. again, trump came in late in the governor's primary here endorsing tudor nixon, again, ryan kelly another republican candidate was here at january 6th at the united states capitol. tudor dixon backs the big lie. michigan a battleground state, governor's races e

governor and the last face you see before you die, eric greitens.s are maga candidates, and both wanted the endorsement of former president traitor tot. establishment republicans desperately wanted the former president to endorse eric schmitt because, "a," he was leading in the polls. and "b," eric greitens resigned from the governorship in disgrace after serious sexual assault allegations. in fact, he's got so much baggage, that missouri republicans are running attack ads against greitens, their own candidate, in an attempt to secure the nomination for a less-controversial republican candidate. yikers. how awful do you have to be these days to be cut loosey the republicans? it's like being told you're too insane for the manson family: "i hate to break it to you, man. charlie thinks you're makin' us look bad. helter sorry." ( laughter ) yesterday morning, the former yesterday morning, the former president had to decide on who to endorse. on one side, arguing in favor of eric schmitt, were people like r.n.c. chair ronna romney mcdaniel. those folks w

eric greitens is an accused abuser.used violent rhetoric to talk about what he wants to do. rounding up rinos and hunting, i guess people like us, who he thinks aren't sufficiently trumpy. and if that's rewarded yet again, that won't be the first time that's rewarded, that's a clear indication of where this party wants to go to the famed seekers, to the thrills, the matt gaetzes and eric greitens, despite the demons they have. they're not in the closet, they're in the hallway. >> greitens has hooves. it's a sign of shame in policy. >> one of the surreal twists is that when he began his political career he was seen as a hoax. let's talk about arizona, a factual fight within the gop, kari lake, and secretary of state nominee, all are intense election deniers. all have been polling fairly well. here's a state that's trending purple. what does that mean for the republican party if they elect an all-election denier slate? >> it could be a disaster. look, the way to think about the gop these days, you know, but nothing too ha

eric, do you want to correct me? [laughter] >> i was hearing "stars & stripes forever" playing as you said that. we will give them the opportunity for another question. >> thanks, congratulations on the book. you circled around a couple of times about a word that has been said a lot -- interests. what role does interests play in christian realism? very often, interests is the i -word, it is wrong. what role does interests play in christian realism. i am mark live becky from realism magazine. >> let's start with the bible. there is a verse in philippians and that verse says, look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. ended goes into how christ sacrificed himself for us. -- and it goes into how christ sacrificed himself for us. there isn't a verse that says, look only to your own interests. that is why when you are on an airplane in those things drop when you lose cabin pressure, they say put on your mask first and take care of the person next to you, at the principal is that we have a ce

which eric is it? >> is it eric trump? >> he'll tell you after they win. that's not really the absurd part. they're both claiming it. >> of course they are. that's what he wants. >> they're both like i'm the eric. what's it worth? give me the last name. >> i'm not sure if he was playing -- if he was being too cute by half or if he actually couldn't remember their last names. that i haven't figured out. what i will tell you it is absurd that one of those erics running, disgraced former governor who had to resign and has had horrible accusations of abuse -- of physical abuse brought out by his ex-wife, is actually tied for first place. could literally win today. and we go back to this idea that there's all of these flawed candidates. it's got to be driving the republican governor association, it's got to be driving mitch mcconnell crazy, that there were all of these republicans who could have easily won most of these races. and instead, they lost primaries and the ones that are now running are people that, frankly, make it that much harder for mitch mcconnel

former governor eric brighton's and missouri attorney general eric schmidt, a source familiar tells merump of both candidates. so he is not betting on a winner in this race, he is giving both candidates his blessing, so it's up to voters in missouri to decide who they think can pull off a win in november. there's been a lot of anticipation of whether or not trump will weigh in on the race, both have close relationships with donald trump as they ran as an ultra maga and republican calling him smart and also controversial, he was forced to resign as governor amid sexual misconduct allegations, more allegations of abuse during the campaign from his ex-wife, and has bribed in the campaign that he was the only one in this race to host an event at mar-a-lago, but it is clear that both candidates were glad and hoping that he would weigh in, but probably did not think that he would choose them both. >> bret: hillary vaughn in missouri, thank you. vicky hurst letter is in that race and to campaign says that two are exactly the same, kind of falls into that category. let's bring in the panel, th

trump endorsed eric and did say which eric. could have been eric greitens, could have been eric schmidt. could have been a little known erik mcelroy, a third eric who happens to be in the same race. in any case, brightest and mitt claimed that they and trump were endorsing them. can't make the stuff up. meanwhile polls are still open in the state of washington where to republican members of congress are facing primary challenges over their votes to impeach donald trump. jamie herrera butler and that new house are still of the ten house republicans who voted to impeach trump after the january 6th attack on the capitol. republican voters in their district are deciding today whether to toss them out for it. congressman herrera butler's primary is also worth keeping an eye on because her trump backed challenger has well documented tied to white when extremists and white nationalist. he told an interviewer quote, i don't think that is anything wrong with there being a white people special interest group. and quote. and another repub

he said, i endorse eric . well, i there are two erics thee was eric greitens and eric schmidt. eric schmitt took that endorsement and look at all this yellow throughout throughout the state. lolo if you look at just dip into a couple of these counties, st.i louis county, look at thiss lead, 58% to his nearest challenger, vicky hartzler. if you justt go up here, st. charles county again. 56% and then lincoln county. 48 a percent in some of these counties is a complete blowouty . this was predicted to be very close att one point. this is not close at all for this or it's a big win for eric schmitt. on the democratic side, it is ai bit of more of a race. bush vallentine versus it we don't know yet. 56% in. but again, this seat leans r towards the republicans heading inep to this race.s if we look at another call tonight and this is the governor's t race, the primary p republican primary in michigan againri , another runaway to dio who the former president endorsedorme on friday. she really has dominated this race all across the state of michigan. she will face incumbentse governor

and eric schmidt. both are claiming to have trump's endorsement. a source tells nbc leaving off the last name was intentional. let's get to nbc news correspondent shack belaruser on the ground in byron center, michigan, covering the primary race between congressman peter meyer and trump backed john gibs. what are you hearing on the ground there? >> reporter: some are telling me they waited until the very last minute to make those decisions we can expect things in michigan to be close and unpredictable. one thing you hear from the candidates a major factor is the endorsement of former president trump. we know statewide former president trump issued a late endorsement friday endorsing tutor dickson. dickson telling me yesterday his endorsement would be key if she is victorious in that primary to take on democratic governor gretchen whitmer. then there's where we are right now, which is michigan's third congressional district represented by peter meyer. meyer is one of the ten house republicans who sided
