the fact that steve bannon said he was going the play this active role especially in the 2018 mid terps. the voters aren't buying what bannon is figure. is there going to be a push to move him out of the way. >> i have not talked to steve bannon personally but i think you will see that he is very interested in continuing what he has termed a civil in the gop much to the chagrin of sort of more establishment republicans who are sort of embodied by senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. democrats, many of them seem to be excited about the prospect of steve bannon staying involved because if -- if steve bannon is able to successfully have a couple of republican candidates win the primaries, it's been shown that sometimes those are generally less electable in the general elections will definitely and interesting to see how that plays out in the gop. >> the democrats will say, okay, we did a good job in alabama, also they'll say we did a good job in virginia and in new jersey. are those wins big enough, though, as we start moving forward for them to actually flip some seats in the senate? >

malcolm would it be credible to you if the buck stopped with jared kushner instead of donald trump in terps ms of directing these conversations? >> no, it would be incredible if it stopped with jared kushner. michael flynn was companion to donald trump almost from the beginning of this campaign. he had unlimited access. apart from not being a married relative of donald trump, he was one of the most senior people there. who in the transition was above him that would have been in position to give him orders in order to do anything? it's quite possible jared kushner was one. we saw that with reference to the israeli resolution, where they called russia and told them not to take action. on the other hand, with regards to russia, with the obama administration kicking out spies from the united states, that would have to be someone very senior indeed. and that leaves only mike pence and donald trump himself. k.t. mcfarland, who is below mike flynn, is just going to be a messenger for whatever the message was from one of those two top officials. >> do you agree with that? who do you think would be
