tom perez, you just don't speak to the american people, and there is a reason for that.was central, you remember the angel moms, the kids were killed, he called laken riley's family, went to jonathan dillard's weight, speaks to rachel warren's mother, not joe biden, joe bide. biden just willy-nilly let's 11 million people march into this country, so the difference is, joe biden does foreign policy based on whatever he wants. donald trump forms policy based upon his talking to americans experiencing what americans are experiencing, and then making a decision as to what our policy should be. >> greg: you know, richard, when you see this list of female victims of crime and the harm done to their families, you got to ask, where is the empathy from the democrats? because they always see when they are faced with this to pivot to another story, whether the story is this is nothing but fearmongering, or an tom perez's case, let's talk about spouses who have been undocumented for ten years. why do they choose to pivot away? why don't they empathize with the families? that have ha

perez, for us to outside the courthouse there in wilmington, delaware. thanks so much for that reporting. >> briana, former deputy assistant attorney general, tawam dupree joins us now at tom, i want to get a sense of what you think of these opening statements here. first, the prosecution, they use quotes from hunter biden's memoir where he described his quote superpower of finding crack anywhere anytime. also, a picture of a gun. there were pictures of drugs found on his electronic devices and the he closed the opening statement by saying addiction may not be a choice, but buying a gun is so what did you think about that briana, i thought that the prosecutors did a very effective job and presenting their case, so i bought a prosecutors will tell you that often the most compelling, powerful evidence you can present against the defendant is to confront him with his own words. >> and here they quoted from the audio book. in fact, they played hunter biden's voice in the courtroom that the jurors could really hear it. i think that drove home the prosecution's themes very powerfully. i also thought they somewhat definitely address the whole addiction issue by making that point
