. >> joining us now former lieutenant governor of georgia, geoff duncan and matt lewis. i want to get your reaction to what you saw last night. u y thinking what about last night, matt? >> thinking, man, i can't believe it, but i miss vivek ramaswamy. >> stop. >> i never thought i would say that. >> you wrote about this today. why? >> look, i was hoping that if we narrowed down the field and got rid of these hangers on we could have a really serious, substantive debate between what we could consider to be trump's two main rivals. they're not really that competitive with trump yet. i think everyone sort of thought fewer candidates would give us a better debate. to be honest with you, i think it was a worse debate. look, the big missed opportunity -- i was rooting for nikki haley, cards on the table, but i think she is somebody who has the potential to come across as likable and charismatic. yes, she has to firefight. she has to throw elbows. she has the potential to be reagan-esque and she did not do that. this was a childish, petty back and forth. >> you have to go after

. >>> joining me now is senior political comment tater adam kin kinzinger and matt lewis. i want to start with you. you just yesterday put out an ad on twitter urging independents to go to the polls in new hampshire. are there enough independents, undeclared voters to swing the state for nikki haley, opposed to donald trump's numbers look really good polling wise. >> yeah, i think there are. it's new hampshire. it has this history. john mccain won it in 2000. it likes to do things a little bit differently. so i nikki haley probably has substantial gop support there. maybe not if it was only restrictive to republicans voting she may come in under water to trump, but with the independents there, they can make a significant difference and new hampshire likes to be able to say they are more than just your typical we're stuck in only democrats or republicans. we like to do things differently. i think she's suffering a little from expectations, which is everybody is expecting she's going to win. if she doesn't win, it's going to be seen as a disappointment. it will be interestin

. >>> joining us matt lewis, his latest piece is entitled far right snowflakes are terrified of the supere him, colin -- of. >> no, that was really good. >> i know. >> just kind of long. >> he did bring up an underlying point that is really important and really important as you see the rise of right wing populist movements across the world. and that is a large collection of lonely isolated young men who are becoming more and more angry, becoming more and more misogynistic, becoming less and less decent especially toward women. >> absolutely. i think it is valid, not good for society. >> just explain to everybody. >> involuntarily celibate, and this is a real problem. it has been a problem like in japan. it is now a big problem in america. look, i think that marriage and women specifically are a civilizing force on men. there is a loneliness epidemic. and i do think kudos to colin cowherd because this is part of the story. i also think a lot of these right wing key board warrior types are obsessed with masculinity kind of ironically in some cases and i think that they kind of resent travis

conservative writer matt lewis and his column in the daily beast said the party of lincoln has metastasized into a decadent and perverse cult of personality, that calls evil good and good evil. nikki haley the former governor of south carolina and former united nations ambassador during the trump administration began her campaign day in south carolina, where the next presidential primary will be held next month. she came out swinging at donald trump, once again. >> so we got out there and we did our thing, we said we had to say, and then donald trump got out there and threw a temper tantrum. he pitched a fifth, he was insulting, he was doing what he does. i know that's what he does when he is insecure, i know that's what he does when he is threatened, and he should feel threatened, without a doubt. [applause] listen, we've only had two states that have voted. we have 48 more that deserve to vote. [applause] a presidential candidate has to have 1215 delegates, donald trump has 32 and i have 17. [applause] out of everything that he has said in his rant, he didn't talk about the american peopl

also senior columnist for "the daily beast" matt lewis. into tomorrow's primary? >> donald trump is this close to securing the republican nomination and he knows it. this is much different than eight years ago when it took the likes of marco rubio and ted cruz months to come around. this go around, though, you continue to see a coalescing not around the trump alternative nikki haley, but around the former president of the united states. we over the course of the weekend saw multiple surrogates of his back on the campaign trail with him, including new york congresswoman elise stefanik, who is under consideration to be his potential vice presidential pick. his endorsements, his success in iowa and likely here on tuesday is coming at the same time he awaits criminal trials and we are awaiting the judge in the new york civil fraud trial to make his decision known. just today donald trump is in new york again and potentially taking the stand in the e. jean carroll defamation trial. i want to let you listen to an exchange i had with the new york

i would like to thank sinha, simon lewis, philippa lauton, nicole tyler, matt baker and henry singersing and documenting this appalling series of events. how many more times will attack a drama documentary and the ensuing public outcry to call people and organisations to account? crisis intervention team, the team of women i worked with were highly skilled. they were tenacious and committed to the young people will work with and for. i thought i was good at working with young people but these women have skills well beyond mine. it's disgusting that we were disbelieved. scrutinised. misrepresented. scapegoated and then publicly and nationally discredited by both the police and local authority. never blamed and they said it was my fault. the team worked so hard, we had to share horrendous things will write about young people and we tried every strategy to try and change things, only then to have our professionalism and qualifications questioned in a review. all we were trying to do was to get protective services to do the job, that's disgusting. i was described as being difficult to wo
