western michigan is more or less considered republican country. you flip votes, this is a place where you need to run up margins. if you take a look at what the president did in kit county back in 2016, he won just shy of about 10,000 votes. mitt romney in 2012 won by 23,000 votes. but that was enough when you talk about mccomb county, a county president trump won by 15,000 votes when president obama won it by 12 or 15,000 votes. but why the president is going to grand rapids is to try and keep those voters that are supposed to be traditionally republican with him. why is that important at this point in time? take a look at where the state is right now when you look at the polling. if the election were held today, an early march poll, 39% of those in michigan polled said they would vote to replace trump. 30% said they would vote to re-elect trump. you hear about the sun belt for democrats and potentially open states. michigan is a must-win for president trump if he wants to get to the 272 electoral votes. that's a problem. why that might be happen

michigan has had so many hardships. and when you combine it with the democrat solution, their solution is the green new deal which means you pay double, triple for gasoline and cost more to heat your home and keep your home cool. harder to have manufacturing plants to have affordable energy prices. if you put that all together it means less manufacturing jobs. in a state like michigan that means a lot especially when you have the authors of the green new deal basically saying no more cars. no more planes. we'll have to take trains. i love trains but a train doesn't take you everywhere. >> no cows or cars was the line last night. democrats will argue, you surprised in wisconsin and michigan and pennsylvania. you won't do it again. the president beat hillary clinton by 113,000 out of 9 million cast. democrats announced the first primary debate the end of june in florida lets you know where they have their sights at the moment. >> just one quick thing, bill. one of the reasons why even if hillary clinton had gone to michig

her coming back to michigan. some of those jobs are coming into our country that were planned outside of the country. these are great things for the president to celebrate. he's got a long time to be able to make this case, and i think as more and more americans are feeling the bigger paychecks, feeling more comfortable with those jobs, the low unemployment, the more and more were going to see people giving a fresh look at president trump and his record and why would you want to go to socialism? >> shannon: he brought that up tonight too. we want to talk about more of the rally with you guys if you will stick around and come back. thank you very much. pressure intensifies as republicans demand congressman adam schiff resigned, as he continues to insist despite the special counsel's findings, that there is "undoubtedly collusion." harry litman and andy mccarthy join us next to break it down. great news, liberty mutual customizes... uh uh, i deliver the news around here. sources say liberty mutual customizes your c

we are in macomb county, michigan, this is the ultimate swing county in michigan. a state that's absolutely crucial for democrats to retake the white house and the message wasn't about the fund raising numbers. he talked about the work he's still trying to do. he's trying to hit a bipartisan message. take a listen. >> we cannot be too red or too blue, too close or too far from the united states/mexico border for me to show up to listen to you, try to see things from your perspective and bring this deeply divided, highly polarized country together around the big challenges before us. >> steph, we're still a year away from the michigan primary. this is not an early primary state. it's not a state that's typically a major battle ground in democratic primaries but o'rourke is here because of the importance of it and it fits his state fairly well. talking to the folks here in the coffee shop, a lot of folks are excited to see this candidate. they're familiar with him in texas. and they're telling me they're looking at him and joe biden. that seems to be the flavor of th

>> early attention to michigan is critical.hat we are seeing is a term campaign that is sort of looking at the states that it won last time around by narrow margins and making certain that they get early and special attention. we saw -- since the top of your program, there were two of them. won michigan by 11,000 votes. a fraction of 1%. expect me articulate his message. florida, which he won by just over 1%, he was there as well talking about a project that is really vital and important to a lot of people in southern florida. namely, the restoration of lake okeechobee. >> dana: i wanted to ask you about something you would really understand. when the president is going to these rallies, one of the things the term campaign is doing is they are inviting people to sign up and register to try and get a seat at the rally. i think they ended up with something upwards of 25,000 registered last night. so that means they have all that information and campaigns can contact them repeatedly to try and make sure those people show up at the

it was in grand rapids, michigan. the place, by the way, where he made his final campaign appearance before winning the presidency. standing room only inside, thousands outside, he said quote, the russia hoax is finally dead. well, he said a whole lot more as well and in a moment, you will hear it. >>> big story in money today is lyft. this is the day when you can buy shares if you want to. this is the day. it's the first in a series of ipos that will bring some of the biggest startups to the public arena. uber, airbnb are lined up. this is lyft's day. it's a very big deal. the offering price is $72 a share. many are expecting a higher price when trading begins. by the way, the founders, logan green and john zimmer, will be rich to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, and valerie jarrett, friend of the obamas, will also make some serious money. maybe lyft is helping the overall markets. we're looking at a triple digit gain for the dow industrials, up, what, maybe 130 points, and the nasdaq's up nearly 40. that
