mitch mcconnell has wanted to be done with donald trump for ages. who do you think is gonna win this one, because donald trump doesn't want to go away quietly, josh? >> well, mitch mcconnell is like the tortoise in the race, right? he has sat back, he has needed the former president when necessary and when possible. but he certainly hasn't been out there leading and charging against him. he hasn't picked fights when he hasn't made it to what donald trump. and i think he believed that he could outlast him. we may find out that's the case, but you know, the death of donald trump's political per career has been written prematurely many times before. so, again, i think we're gonna have to get out of this immediate postelection moment to see how influential trump is with the larger republican party. i just don't think he's that influential in the senate caucus. but it will be fascinating to watch, if republicans win the majority in the house, and they try to organize over there, with only a couple of seats majority, you could see people voting on the flo

mitch would rather be leader than have a republican majority.there's a republican who can win, who is not going to support mitch, the truth of the matter is, he would rather the democrat win. >> what is your take on this? are mcconnell and mccarthy at serious risk, or is this a case of a few republicans letting off steam? >> you can't beat somebody with nobody, and that's the best thing kevin and mitch have going for them right now, and andy biggs is the challenger for mccarthy, and he spoke at the mall on january 6th, and so the challenge to mccarthy is more in line with trump and the election denialers, and hard to see biggs getting to 218. and in the senate, rick scott says he is going to challenge mitch mcconnell, and he just face-planted in the midterms, and there's not a good option in either caucus. if one emerged, a potential consensus option emerged, i think both men would be in trouble and if they sneak through, both will be on very short leashes. and to what ali was talking about, the way the speaker votes, he has to get all 218 votes

he's in much more danger than mitch mcconnell. the reason is because if republicans end up winning the majority, it is going to be by a very slim margin. and there are about a dozen, two dozen more hard liners, part-right members, threatening to withhold their support for his speakership unless he gives in to some of their demands. that's something he's not wanted to do. he's been making calls since wednesday trying to lock down support. but ultimately, whether or not he becomes speaker really depends on two things. just what is the size of that majority? if it's super narrow, there's a chance he may not fwabe able tot it. because there are some members who will not vote for him no matter what. and is he willing to make deals that would weaken his speakership? nancy pelosi, who knows this game very well, she was asked by dana bash, does mccarthy have it when it comes to making speaker? >> why would i make a judgment about something that may or may not ever happen? no, i don't think he has it, but that's up to his own people to mak

he was reaching out to mitch mcconnell and mccarthy today.ing he's had that conversation by now. i think that really speaks to who this president is. he's gotten so much done over his career as a senator, vice president and so much bipartisan legislation. he's always willing to work with leaders who are willing to work with him. that will not change. >> let's talk about georgia. some place you know very well. i don't want to get you in any issues with the hatch act. should we expect the white house to be very much engaged in what looks to be a runoff that will be in december? will the white house be engaged? should we expect the president to travel to georgia for raphael warnock, senator warnock? >> what the president has said, he will do whatever senator warnock asks and needs him to do. that will be a discussion between the president and senator warnock. i can speak factually about what happened in georgia. georgia had a very heavy early vote turnout from the democratic side and the republican side was much heavier on election day. so that
