leon castro, jennifer, horn back with me now.ue an impeachment inquiry, it could very well fail due to opposition within their own party. could the impeachment path and up herding republicans more than it hurts president biden? >> if i were a betting, man i bet on, that. charles i think first of all as others have pointed, out you can have all of those republicans who probably just came in in the last cycle who are in swing districts, close districts, yes, those still do exist. they exist in a few places. they are going to be against going forward. i'm sure they're telling kevin mccarthy do not do. this it's going to put our reelection in jeopardy. it's going to put republican control of the house in jeopardy. you're already dealing with a presidential cycle where in a lot of these districts the democratic vote is stronger than in mid term years. i think it's also going to hurt the presidential candidate for republicans. it's going to be bad. there is no way that people who are listening to the facts who could go either way that

joining me is jennifer horn, cofounder of the lincoln project. maya rakim more cummings, democratic strategist. jennifer, let's start with the big campaign shakeup for ron desantis. shedding roughly a dozen people from the staff, despite bringing in $21 million during the first six weeks of this candidacy. now, this comes as new campaign finance numbers indicate flashing warning signs for desantis whose major donors have maxed out and small donations have been a struggle for trump's gop challenges. we've seen political comebacks in recent history from then john mccain in 2008 and joe biden and 2020. whose campaigns seemed in danger of collapsing. is too early to can't desantis out in your opinion? >> oh, yes, it's too early to count desantis out. those two examples are exactly why. especially in the early stages. candidates often come from behind in the final stretch as a primary gets closer and closer. however, at the same time, what we see happening with ronda sentences campaign is not a good trend. he is not a trending in the right direction. h

. >> jennifer horn, to take nothing away from your original point about these aides, i do have to say, it strikes me that donald trump takes issue with these aides sharing he would say, leaking, and yet has no issue himself waving around classified documents. the hypocrisy is really something to behold. >> i would suggest it's not so much hypocrisy as it is north of narcissism. and remind folks that, i am one of the many that believe that donald trump suffers from narcissism to a degree that is a diagnose-able and ill. it's an illness. having these documents in his hands, waving them around, referencing them as if he actually understands and knows what is contained in them, has any sort of intellectual understanding of them, this all feeds donald trump's narcissism. it feeds his strongman image of himself, the authoritarianism that he brings forward. and the more that we learn about it, the more that it becomes public knowledge through the unfolding of these charges and these cases against him right now, for somebody referencing that handful of undecided voters, absolutely it will hav

and robert gibbs, former white house press secretary and former rnc executive committee member, jennifer horn. we saw reaction from both sides of this desantis ad. i'm going to put up polling here, some of the latest nationwide polling on key lgbtq+ issues. the vast majority of supportive of gay marriage. is this clearly tailored to a primary and then the general is trying to put the tooth paste back in the tube. >> that's exactly right. this is what happens when you base your entire candidacy, which is what ron desantis is doing, on cultural politics, you can eventually go too far, and folks who would generally be in support, republicans who called it homophobic. desantis is by all accounts kind of flailing up to this point. we have a lot of time to go. he is not where he thought he was going to be or where he wanted to be and when that happens, what we now know firsthand, people start to double down on things that got them to where they are, hoping they can stir up some more fervor, will that actually work in the primary, it's very possible, in the general election, this country has moved f

also with me, elaine godfry, and jennifer horn, chair of the new hampshire republican party.in the middle of a summit of conservatives, it could force the candidates to be explicit exactly where they stand. >> reporter: iowa is putting abortion front and center in the primary. it might make things difficult for candidates in the primary, and of course creating that tension for the general election. evangelical voters in this state say that this is a very very important issue for them. it's been talked about a lot already here at the summit. in the next hour or so, we expect that governor kim reynolds will sign that bill, and it is a bit of a litmus test for caucus goers. i want you to hear what bob vander plaats said about this issue, a hugely influential political voter in iowa. he has a history of endorses candidates that tend to go on and win in caucuses. he has a good pulse on what iowa voters are interested in. >> i think iowans know if you're right on the sanctity of human life, you're right on a lot of other things. but if you're wrong, you're going to be wrong on a lo
