of confidence in john maguire. so to a lot of my colleagues and i believe he's gonna be the right kind of person to work with and 100 19th congress to implement, the make america great again, america first drains congressman, i hear what you're saying about how look a lot of your colleagues jumping into this race, it seems largely because donald trump has jumped into this race. but on ideology, on the issues, there is not a whole lot of daylight between bob good and john maguire except for donald trump's decision to endorse against him. are you suggesting that bob good is not conservative enough for you and your colleagues know i think the voting record is a different issue. >> i mean, george santos had to fine voting record. i don't want to draw much more of a comparison there. he was he was like, oh, because yeah, ethics issues. bob is guy a hard time working with colleagues and frankly, that's part of why john maguire was asked to step in there both conservative, they appeal to a lot of the same people main diff

you can see john maguire right now has 50 50.6% of the vote. bob good, is it 49.4%? look how close those margins are. it is incredibly close as we are watching all of this tonight, this test of donald trump, who was endorsed the name you see there to the top, john maguire against bob good, the chairman of the very influential house freedom caucus. my source tonight to help put these numbers into context that we are seeing here as we are watching all of this sentence, a senior data reporter, harrington and harry, i mean, obviously this rate is so close right now at this moment but razor, razor type, my goodness, gracious. you rarely i get excited on nights like this, where you know, you watch these old videos and i see how tight the races were in like election 2005 finally, we get a race tonight, as tight as we have it right now. yeah. and so obviously, the question here is about trump's endorsement and how powerful that's ultimately going to be. because really there's basically no policy differences between these two republicans on anything substantive. but, but dona

race down in virginia, that primary for a battle going on between bob good, the incumbent, and john maguirehe challenger the trump-backed challenge to jump. maguire has just come out a few moments ago and declared victory even though the results are extremely tight at this point, we don't exactly know who won that race is not been called just yet, but here's what mcgwire had to say ladies and gentlemen, the votes are in and the people have spoken it is an honor to be your republican nominee for the congressional now again, we should know the race has not been called yet. that's what john mcguire's saying, but that's the latest from that race down in virginia. anything breaks before the end of the hour, we'll bring it to you, but you can see the results right there coming in still very close to call at this 0.50 de 0.3 for john maguire, 49.7 for bob. good extremely close race right now, we'll keep you posted on all of that coming up next new information coming in as too strong men share an embrace and north korea and that's not all as vladimir putin and kim jong-un are sharing tonight. there

and he has endorsed john maguire. he did a tele town hall last night for john maguire and his campaign even sent a cease and desist letter to bob good's saying he can't use the signs that seemed to suggest that trump is still supporting bob. good, i should note we've spotted one of the sides inside the italian restaurant tonight. and then of course there's kevin mccarthy and his allies who were coming after good with everything they've got, they poured a tiny money money he into this race. and the reason is because bob good was one of those eight republicans who voted to oust kevin mccarthy as speaker. so this rates tonight, anderson is not only going to test trump's influence inside the gop, but also be a test of the strike string of kevin mccarthy's revenge tour is known. thanks. want to turn to a scene and political director did chaldean at magical all sort of the numbers right now? >> well, right now, here is virginia, we're going to go into the fifth congressional district here, anderson. and what you see right n

and he made campaign signs using trump's name, earning a sharp rebuke from trump's team, john maguire has my complete and total endorsement. i want that to be understood because bob good's going around saying we're friends. i mean, he was fine the last six months, but before that he was basic disaster but good is not throwing in the towel just yet, vowing to stand the race until every vote is counted. >> and writing on social media, we believe we can still prevail. >> i believe that you all will send me back to washington if the margin is less than one percentage point. >> good. can ask for a recount, meaning trump's quest for revenge remains on hold at least for now melanie, it's amazing. >> i know you had a chance to speak to a lot of voters today that actually they didn't want to go on camera, which is a really fascinating thing in and of itself. i mean, so tell me about that and what they told you yeah. >> erin, we've been talking to voters here in the district really, you can't go very far without seeing bob good's signs and or john maguire signs, most of which include donald tru

john maguire. mr. guire, thank you so much for taking the time this morning and for joining me. >> bob. good. yeah, he's a leader the freedom caucus he's easily one of the most conservative members in the house. so is this decision to back ron desantis reason enough to kick him out of congress well there are a lot of reasons. >> he's never passed a bill, never passed amendment, and his legacy is going to be that he shrunk our party. we're down to a one one-vote majority in congress. and i would say that the other side is getting more of their agenda today than they were a year ago. and it was he just has bad judgment obviously, he bagged trump for an endorsement in 2022 and less than a year later when the chips are down and you know, when the chips are down, you can find out who you can trust. he endorsed a different candidate and he went all over the districts and that trump wasn't pro-gun, wasn't pro-life, wasn't a conservative now, he and bob good and i had the same award for conservatism. i have it

could be heading for a recount congressman bob good is locked in a tight race with states senator john maguire. they're a little over 300 votes apart. and there's one man who could cost the incumbent his seat. cnn's bryan todd explained thanks republican congressman bob good in a nailbiter as he fights to retain his seat in virginia's fifth congressional district after tuesday's primary night. >> good trails his opponent by a razor-thin margin. and the race could be headed for a recount. good normally checks all the boxes for being a far right, your mega republican. he's an election denier, support strict immigration measures, opposes all abortions but he now could lose because of one moon is when a congratulate and thank governor ron desantis. good. initially endorsed florida governor ron desantis in the republican presidential primary, drawing rage from the man who ended up dominating the race, bob good who is actually bad for virginia and who will stab you in the back like he did me. >> it didn't matter to former president donald trump that wants to satis bowed out. bob good went back to en

donald trump has endorsed goode's opponent, state senator john maguire. that happened last month.ll, it could have something to do with congressman goode's backing of ron desantis during the presidential primary. but also supporting goode's opponent is kevin mccarthy, who has an ax to grind after goode voted to oust him as speaker of the house last year. ali vitali joins us now. we have two candidates who share a lot of the same ultra conservative stances, but only one has trump's endorsement. what else can you tell us about this matchup? >> we'll see, ana, if having trump's endorsement is the thing that makes a difference here, be it for mccarthy, now on the second stop of his so-called revenge tour against the eight republican lawmakers that pushed to oust him from the speakership last year, but then we'll also see if having trump's endorsement is the thing that makes it or breaks it here for bob goode. the important thing to remember about goode, he's not just a rank and file member of congress, he's the head of the powerful house freedom caucus, often the ones who are a thorn

but former president donald trump endorsed congressman goods challenger virginia state senator john maguire. >> voters went to the polls yesterday. maguire is currently narrowly ahead of good by roughly 313 votes, while malin and provisional ballots are still being counted, that did not stop john maguire from declaring victory last night. >> ladies and gentlemen the voltage are in and the people have spoken it is an honor to be your republican nominee, but bob good. >> the congressman did not concede. however, he posted on x, also known as twitter, quote. we are in a period where the law provides a process for evaluating the accuracy of all the vote totals from election de to ensure everyone can have full confidence in the certified results. good. went on to say, quote, we believe we can still will prevail unquote. so that's the latest from election night. we have so much political news to cover though. let's bring in republican senator kevin cramer from north dakota, who joins us now. thanks for joining us senator. let's start with trump's vip stakes because you're governor doug burgum is

trump is now supporting goods challenger, a man named john maguire. and trump thinks that virginia is in play for his election in november we're going to put a very heavy play on virginia and i think we're going to win the state of virginia were up now in the polls. >> now, virginia is crucial. now, trump is not beating biden yet. a recent poll, those shows biden and trump now tied in virginia keep in mind biden won that state by ten points in 2020. and right now, biden is in virginia at a fundraiser with bill and hillary clinton where they say they're raising $8 the most ever for a democrat in virginia and a presidential election. but that neck and neck poll comes as tonight, we have a new national polls showing the same thing, showing biden and trump tied just days before the first presidential debate nationally and that is the debate that trump is talking about. but the sour, so it was just a few moments ago at this rally in wisconsin, he made an outrageous claim that biden will use cocaine at the debate joe biden doesn't have a clue. >> now we're

in fact, donald trump went out and not only did campaign events for john maguire, but he got his allies to do things as well. kevin mccarthy allied himself with donald trump because as you noted, bob, good, try to knock him out and was successful, helped lead the effort to knock them out as speaker. so as we speak right now now, we're still waiting to see when the votes come in and drawn. if you had postmarked your vote, you lived in this congressional district. you postmarked your vote by election day. if it arrives by friday, is going to be counted. so i don't think we're going to get any resolution in this race anytime soon. >> yeah. no. they're going to still be counting votes for some time, just 342 separating them and mark the lesson here is what i mean, bob, good freedom caucus chair. yes, there's the mccarthy thing. but really for donald trump, it was the fact that good endorse ron desantis for a minute right after desantis dropped out, bob good could not have done more to be supportive of donald trump yeah in bob good came out and said that the reason he had endorsed ron desant

while supporting john maguire. this is a usual fully, completely in line with leaderships pack.his is a group of more establishment republicans and they were supporting it candidate gets good and he's just made a lot of enemies. i think this is kind of his fate just coming to a fault. yeah. and andrew, meanwhile, you have some reporting about mitch mcconnell, the outgoing senate republican liter, concerned about what may happen in the house. he is concerned about this push to put impose term limits on republican leaders in the senate. there are no term limits on republican leaders are lower down leadership ranks and his concern is about decentralizing this in is essentially giving the rank and file more power, like we're being in the house. >> yeah, it's all argument boils down to, hey, look at what's happening in the house right now. do you want that to happen in the senate? and so you've got these potential successors to mitch mcconnell, who are all in their own different ways and to varying degrees sort of severity proposing these changes to how the conference operates that w

these a state senator john maguire, he was at the stop the steal rally on january 6 of 2021 he i'm going to play a little bit of his conversation with around manu raju, who talked to him on cnn this morning and just want to start by saying there's no evidence that the 2020 election was stolen. let's listen to part of their conversation would you acknowledge the election was not stolen, right i would say it was i would say changing the rules of the game is cheating and i think that i think that trump was robbed and i think the american people, under their constitutional right can assemble and peacefully protest ok, let's put the top of that truth sandwich on there. just say there's no evidence that the 2020 election was stolen. yeah. i mean, he started off on the sort of the standard republican response you get now well, which is to say they're irregular irregularities, right? not going all the way, but then he went went full denialism there look, he made win, right? >> bob, good may lose, like bob good for all the talk we're doing about him right now. he i mean, i don't want to compare i

i saw president trump enjoys state senator john maguire and navy seal in virginia against bob good. i think that's a very important race, especially a navy seal like john maguire, state senator in virginia. that's served as countries willing to serve again, trying to help some of the people who pushed you out. >> that's all right. everybody has their own opinion. >> i just want to get back down. the mike johnson front. he did realize why light on democrats to pass a lot of his agenda do you think that he can remain as speaker in the next congress yeah. >> listen to remain speaker. you got to keep the majority. so you've got to expand the majority and the one thing if you look at the last two cycles, all these political pundits said we would lose seat last time biden was on the ballot everybody projected that i would lose 15 seats. >> they got the party he got the number right. >> but the party wrong. it was the first time since 1994? no republican laws. >> but do you think that he might johnson isn't effective speaker. >> he's doing the best job we can as he goes through this, it's

i mean, he was wanted to tell the town hall yesterday with john maguire railing against bob. good.t's how important this is to trump a personal, it is the endorsement of desantis, the getting rid of mccarthy. i mean, this is all coming full circle. >> it look, remember bob, good after desantis dropped out, he endorsed.org trump, then he rushed up to new york with other republicans to defend trump during the hush money trial as well went before the thanks and talk to him the like. >> but still that's not been enough. i talked a lot of republicans over the last week about this raise in about whether they believe bob good, leader of the hard-right freedom caucus should return to congress i don't like liars and i don't like back salvors and bob good bob good, really sad president trump in the back. >> bob good is gonna be terrific for the trump agenda because he's a conservative fighter. presidency differently, if bob gets defeated, it will be because donald trump should the president get reelected, then i think president will learn quickly that some of these people may not be sitting

that's going to work to their advantage and kind of work in john maguire. mean, he's a conservative freedom caucus ii type. it's not like he's really getting a huge primary from a moderate or from the far right, it's more of just a trump dynamic there. yeah. >> i went down to the district. i interviewed bob good about those two and he he downplayed the trump opposite the fact that he supported rhonda san does in fact, he said yard sides, it says good trump on his yard signs, even though it does not have the trump endorsement any washed up to new york to defend trump during the hush money drought too. but that's still wasn't good enough for trump because backing ron desantis was bad enough where he will never forgive them. >> i think the trump campaign sent out a he's and desist letter. if i'm remembering correctly on the 4d signs and it was definitely kind of an awkward dynamics seeing both of them up there in new york, standing next to trump given how things why i wrote along in the motorcade with them and then bob good ran up and definitive in the hush mo
