>> lawrence: not right now. right now after they allowed this to get out of control high pressure on campus this was a failure from the university. let's be clear. nypd has been stationed, ready to go for a while now. the mayor made it very clear, the commissioner and as well as the police chief. because this is a private university, they had to wait for the invitation from them. so i have been seeing some people trying to make the comparison for what is happening at ucla to what is happening at columbia. it's totally different. the state police and lapd did not need permission to go onto the campus it was a failure of leadership from the political leaders inside of ucla. what we have here in columbia is just a failure of the president of the university and the faculty and staff here. i mean, if you need any indicator, after these students were arrested last night from taking over a building holding hostage three janitors. they released a statement. that's what we are dealing with from columbia. >> steve: yester

lawrence, you know.s you guys have seen him day in and day out on the way into that courtroom and leaving that courtroom talking to the press every day, saying whatever he can, of course, with this crazy gag order. i have never seen a person with the focus of donald trump. i have never seen someone who can be facing so much, who can really not just take it and still remain standing, but still be fighting. not only has he gone in that courtroom every day and had to sit there and listen to lie after lie, knowing what they ever trying to do to him, knowing this is bawl politics he least the courthouse and goes a bodega in harlem. delivers pizzas to the firefighters. holds a rally in the deep blue bronx. new york, and that's that tells you what you need to know about this man. >> never back down this just like everything else i believe will boomerang and only. >> brian: how detailed are the plans for the campaign judging on this scenario that are possible at some time we believe this week when a verdict come

what is it like now, lawrence, calm? >> lawrence: it is peaceful now. if you look behind me, more nypd have arrived on the scene much one thing we heard from protesters being arrested yesterday and reporters talking with them, they knew they would be back on the street within hours. does alvin bragg take a moment from his prosecution against a former president to find charges on these people? most people in the building held three people hostage for a period of time. what charges will be brought? >> todd: andy mccarthies third degree burglary and no jail time, zero. >> steve: already on the street and probably heading your way. i believe cb cotton, our correspondent, is on the ground not far from where you are. cb, i see broken glass behind you. >> cb: >>hi, steve, a lot of damage in the area after last night's chaos. i have two paper fliers, this know wo disclose, divest, we will not stop, we will not rest. you can see the glass panelling at this bus stop has been smashed. the city will have to foot the bill for this and columbia has damage, too. minou

, lawrence, they don't love you like that. you know how they really think about you and how the democrats feel they have to do no work to get the black or hispanic vote. i think that's going to change this year. >> ainsley: lawrence, i'm curious, how do you feel when the president has been in office three and a half years and now seeing the poll numbers drop amongst black men especially and trump is getting more of the black male voter and then you see president biden now all of the sudden doing this tour of black colleges and black radio stations and meeting with the naacp. >> lawrence: most black voters would say why now? why did you wait until it was election time to start campaigning and talking about the issues that impact us? i think honestly can he campaign all he wants. it's issue-based for black men and the economy and immigration. when you have the economy not doing as well as the trump years and when you have the democratic party now giving benefits to illegals taking over black communities, that is the issues that

lawrence and guys, back to you. >> lawrence: thanks, eric. >> rachel: all right.ell the most financial problems facing the u.s. right now is inflation. look at this. 41 percent, this is what americans say 41% of them say inflation is their top concern. housing costs next. that's a lot of young people, by the way, worried about housing costs and not being able to launch in life. debt is at 8%. healthcare costs and then low wages. i don't see anywhere this there trump problems north carolina. all about the economy. he continues to say my economy is my sales door good as economy is. look inside the numbers they are low. mostly government jobs and part time jobs. and inflation has not come down. therefore, interest rates are not coming down. >> lawrence: go ahead, guy. three consecutive months of worse than expected inflation. it seems like this problem already elevated picking up steam again. when you see numbers like we put on the screen from gallup, not even close, inflation number one on the list of concerns. i think back to david axelrod obama's guru saying it is
