5:02 am
good morning. welcome inside politics sunday, i'm on a raja. as we head into a new phase in the presidential race, that trump campaign is scrambling to catch up to the biden team's fundraising machine. justice morning. biden's camp announced bringing in an eye popping $53 million in february alone with a staggering $155 million in the bank they say that's the most of any democratic presidential campaign at this stage of the election cycle. pause the biden team says an additional $10 million was brought in in the aftermath of the presence state of the union address. earlier this month. now, meantime, trump is purging the rnc and trying to rebuild the organization all as he faces mounting legal bills. now, yesterday, trump was back on the campaign trail in ohio, where he was throwing red meat to his base, including some dark rhetoric about migrants if i had prisons that were teeming with ms 13 and all sorts of people that they've got to take care of for the next 50 years,
5:03 am
right? young people that are in jail for years, if you call him people, i don't know if you call up people in some cases than not people in my opinion, these are animals. okay? >> now, trump also accused biden of being a threat to democracy. all the offer dire warnings about what would happen if he loses in november. and that brings us to alayna treene, who is live in dayton, ohio and was at the trump rally. so alayna, when trump was speaking, did eat moderate his message role to a general election audience. was he really catering to the maga base is done as he tends to do in these rallies >> will look mondo donald trump is very much in full general election campaign mode. however, trump's trump and he's going to continue to use that type of rhetoric that we heard yesterday throughout his time on the campaign. john, as we look to november, but here, you know, donald trump wasn't necessarily in ohio for his own campaign. both trump and his team believed that he will handily win the state come november, according to my conversations with trump's
5:04 am
advisers, instead, he was here to stomp for his endorsed candidate in the ohio senate primary. and that's a businessman, bernie moreno now, but his trip was his speech was very much a general election campaign speech and he went heavily after joe biden. and as you mentioned, manu, we heard a lot of dark rhetoric from the former president as he tried to paint a doomsday picture of what the country would look like if he were to lose the election at one point while talking about the auto industry, he warned that there would be in a bloodbath if he did not win and reclaim the white house come november. take a listen to how he put it >> we're going to a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line. and your dr. to be able to sell those guys. if i get get elected. now, if i don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole that's going to be the least of it. it's going to be a bloodbath for the catchy that'll be the least of it. >> now, mano, it was unclear exactly what donald trump was
5:05 am
referring to when he made those comments. however, the trump campaign later tried to clarify those remarks, telling us that he was referring to the auto industry and he was warning of an economic blood bath, but we did see the biden campaign immediately jump up onto those remarks. we heard this from one of their spokespeople. they said, quote, he wants another january 6, but the american people are going to give him another electoral defeat this november because they continue to reject his extremism, his affection for violence, and his thirst for revenge. now, the trump campaign argued that the biden campaign statement was being a bit deceptive and we heard this from steven truong, one of his top advisers. they told us, quote, crooked joe biden and his campaign are engaging in deceptively out of context editing that puts roman per landscape to shame. so clearly different takes on those remarks. but as you mentioned, a very very dark speech from the former president here in ohio, manu, i went to drain from dayton, ohio. thank you for that report. and now we're back here in the studio with a great panel this morning, we'll break this all down with us. cnn's
5:06 am
priscilla alvarez and blake from the washington post and mariana. so to my arrow, also from the washington post thank you, guys. good morning for thanks for being here the thing about trump is that every single election cycle, it's been similar strategy. you might be in a general election, but in messaging is not geared towards suburban voters. it's not geared towards more moderate voters. it is that riling up the base strategy and he's doing getting again, it looks worked in 2016, didn't quite work in 2020. he's obviously gambling that will work again in 2024. >> yeah. and i think if you look at 20:16, the concede and this is the big steve steve bannon thing like you can't let your base go. you always need to have this as you're building block but stuff like the january 6 pardons, stuff like talking about violence if he loses or alluding to violence if he loses. these are the kinds of things that made him an unpopular present in the first place. he won in 2016, but it wasn't 145, 46% of the
5:07 am
vote. these are not things that are going to expand his base and making kim a broadly acceptable candidate. but he may not need that in this election because of the third party candidates that could dilute the vote and maybe make the winner need only 45% of the vote. >> yeah, and third-party ganim, which we will talk about later in the show. thank you. aaron blake for teasing that segment for later. but you mentioned january 6 and just how the rhetoric about january sicily you've seen this. there's been a common theme, actually throughout former president trump's own campaign, he brings it up himself and even began his, his rally yesterday with a pledge of allegiance that was said by the january 6, prisoners and defended them as well >> we're not going to take it any longer. the radical left democrats rig the presidential election in 2020, and we're not going to allow them to rig the presidential election in 2024,
5:08 am
forgot to work with the people to treat those unbelievable patriots and they were unbelievable patriots and our end, he calls them, he called them unbelievable patriots and interesting reporting from our colleagues here at cnn, who reported about biden. why biden's bring this up? of course, biden is going to make this a big theme i mean, come 2020. sorry, come november because trump keeps bringing it up. that's what that's what our colleagues are reporting it's almost giving him an opening to bring back generous. >> q. one of the defining themes of the biden campaign, which is talking about protecting democracy. this is what he launched. his reelection to bid on, and what he keeps bringing up in rallies. i've been to some of the president's rallies across the country and he often kicks off his remarks, talking about january 6 and democracy and part of the strategy there is to remind voters who former president donald trump is, what happened in those four years. that's the concern among
5:09 am
campaign officials. it's that people forgot what happened over those years. they forgot what happened institutions, what happened with the president's, the former president's policies. and so this all plays into what president biden is trying to do on the trail. and these moments, like the former leg trump's rally yesterday really crystallizes the general election for them. there essentially doing the work for them by using terms like bloodbath by talking about january 6, which then leads the biden campaign to do their rapid response and to point to that as here are the dangers, if you were to reelect him again, it's not easy. this is going to be a tight race, but that's what they're banking. and the, the question is does how much does that move voters who are undecided within the economy, of course, will dominate the pocketbook issues. while dominic, lastly the grid iron dinner, biden tried to tie all these things together. he talked about his he spoke to this is a dinner of insiders. journalists, politicians is obviously an annual event here in washington. he talked about how the day got the country. he
5:10 am
says through the pandemic, turn around the economy. this is what he said. he said about trump is at all without encouraging the people to inject bleach is referring to the trump of course, or without destroying the economy and bearing bearing us around the world are itching for an insert reaction. look trump has gone, as we said, he is riled up, is energized the base biden has not, and he's trying to energize juice the base by essentially scaring them about trump and the dangers of another presidency because there's so many voters were just not sold on buying yet within his own party. yeah, i mean, if you talk to congressional republicans ligands on the trump front that you mentioned, they say yeah, trump is only talking to as base, but they are so energetic. it could enthuse a number of republicans who for example, didn't turn out in the midterms, are a little bit turned off in 2020 to vote for him the biden still has to do the same with his own base, which is a big one, and we have been seeing, for example, minorities being a little bit more open to the republican
5:11 am
party. we've also seen the younger base that typically turns out for democrats. biden has to work with them it is true and it's something that obviously the campaign and the white house, and we're seeing and biden's remarks, people even something that i noticed during the midterm election. a lot of voters though they agreed with republican policies when it came to the questions of january 6, trump's own rhetoric that turned off a lot of people really did give them pause to vote republican. >> and you heard about mike pence not getting in line with donald trump. >> vice president, >> saying that he would not endorse him. what i mean beyond just endorsements, let's see if they actually matter, but this is a significant one. why do you think that? >> i mean, look, we seen a number of members of donald trump's cabinet, not come on board with reelected him. we've seen people like jim madness, john kelly, mark esper be very critical of donald trump in recent months but this is his
5:12 am
vice president, this is his number two. this is the guy who kind of gave these evangelical, very conservative republicans the permission structure to come on board with trump during his presidency and in the 2016 campaign. i also think it's important to look at a lot of these other republicans who were reluctant to go with trump and then came around the mcconnell's, the moon's. chris sununu they said, well, i have to endorse him now because he's the nominee better than joe biden pence took a very different approach to that. he's saying no, i don't have to endorse him because i'm a republican. i'm a conservative first less than he's not conservative eye exam a look, there are people who are in that camp. one of them is senator mitt romney, who i caught up with this week about the fact that donald trump met recently with a hungarian leader's strongman, viktor orban, p-r-e-p, praised or bought and it's that kind of thing that concerns republicans like romney well, viktor orban is an authoritarian ruler and the practices that he's engaged
5:13 am
>> in, his nation or not, once we want to emulate here president trump has, over the years written love letters that took kim jong lan has praised, let him or putin and welcomes viktor orban authoritarians. we're the leader of the free world we're not the leader of the authoritarian world. >> where every what do you mean? get the fact that so many people you can party essentially eat up eat that. up when he talks about those strong man i know there's some people that think it'd be great to have a president that doesn't have to live by the rule of law. >> all right. more coming up next wire. top republicans nervous about the ohio republican senate candidate that trump is trying to problem united states of scandal with jake tapper. tonight at nine on cnn >> the day you get your clear choice dental implants changes your struggle with missing teeth forever it changes how you eat, how you feel, and how

>> it's time to sink or swim. >> the luck. all new monday night at nine on hgtv >> bernie moreno, who's a fantastic guy you gotta win. bernie, don't leave me alone. don't leave me alone. birdie >> now is donald trump was trying to prop up ohio's senate candidate, bernie moreno in a three-way gop battle for the crucial tuesday primary. there are new fears brewing privately among top republicans that trump is actually elevating the weakest candidate in a marquee senate race moreno, a businessman with no experience in office, has been embroiled in a vicious campaign against republicans. frank larose and matt dolan, the latter of whom is boasting endorsements from the parties establishment like governor mike dewine and former senator rob portman. now, but trump's not the only one hoping for a marino victory on tuesday. so our democratically leaders were betting his candidacy could give their incumbent democrat share a brown, a much better chance at
5:19 am
hanging onto his seat and help their party cling to power in the senate once senior senate republican told me this was a bizarre situation in which a jd vance, donald trump, and chuck schumer are all on the same side. >> my >> panel is back >> so i mean, mariana trump had last cycle, didn't have the batch track or occurred, it endorsing candidates, you list of the candidates there on the street and several of them did not win, like dr. oz black masters, herschel walker, jd vance, ted, but they did in those states i didn't take the senate, which is obviously a big problem for the gop >> there have been >> cycles path to where where bad candidates lackluster candidates, one in the primaries than they collapse in the general election. just a handful of them are on your screen there. i've been hearing about concerns that moreno could be the same from some of those top republicans that same republican that i mentioned in the intro said it is illustrative of some of the
5:20 am
problems we've had in recent years with trump dictating the nominations, referring specifically to marina, what are you to sensor what are you going from? people your talked? yeah. it's an interesting play. it's not that surprising that democrats are getting involved in this way because it has worked at least on the house side during the midterms, we saw the d dccc do this play in the primary, just boost up and say, hey, look at this republican super, super maga bad for us, right? just so that voters know who is the most trumpian. and obviously trump going out of his way to endorse and campaign for marino is also probably going to turn out that base. the reason why democrats do this is because they do see it as just an easier almost guarantee, guarantee that might be two strava work, but almost guaranteed way to win and sherrod brown is obviously super interesting in ohio politics. every single time he runs, because we have seen ohio turn more and more reliably republican.
5:21 am
>> he has made and it's just still keep a constituency as a democrat there. so democrats seeing it as it easier ploy, trying to make sure that they can shore up their guy. and republican leaders. yeah, >> i look, this has been a bit a different cycle of how trump has handled senate races then pass cycles. emily's in the last cycle, he's actually been in line with the senate republican leaders for the most part, you can see on your screen there, i actually angering some folks on the right at some of them, even senator rand paul told me that he has said that it makes no sense for him to be supporting mike rogers. you see that that's the michigan senate republican hi candidate there. and that's been interesting. this cycle one of the things i'm back to ohio is as you're mentioning, democrats trying to prop up bernie moreno. this is different. republican leaders had stayed neutral in this primary. trump has decided to get involved and democrats are happy about it. you can tell by just the money they're spending on the airwaves
5:22 am
>> maga republican bernie moreno is too conservative for ohio in washington, marina would do donald trump that's why trump endorsed marino, calling him exactly the type of mega fighter that we need. and the united states senate not so subtle there. the money is really been spent on the republican side. they've been passing each other on the airways in ohio $34 million in the republican senate primary compare eight for the democrats. >> just the >> hope of the democrats, they bloodied each other up and that they can somehow managed to get away with victory. here is both sherrod brown and gary peters, who's the top campaign chairman on the senate democratic side about bernie moreno and about this strategy by this outside world is chuck schumer, super pac to prop up senate majority pac is trying to prop up, earn him right now. >> i'm not a pundit. but >> the two rich guys >> i mean, they obviously thinking he's the weakest, you didn't use the weekend, do you
5:23 am
make an assumption? i'm not a pundit. >> there's a really spirit at primary going on in ohio and we expect that it's going to be hard hitting and the weakest candidate will come out. >> is that moreno >> so we'll wait to see who comes out. we'll see who ends up surviving, but it's likely to be a brutal primary. >> that's the hope brutal primary. it's a terrible map for them, but maybe they hang on because it's a brutal, it is a terrible map. and so they need to think outside the box a little bit. look, this is a strategy that didn't just in 2022 at worked as marianna mentioned, it goes back a lot further than that. i'm thinking about claire macaskill and her campaign to elevate todd akin with his comments about legitimate rape, and then she beat him very easily in the general election. so this is something that democrats are employing a lot more. and in this case, i think it makes some sense but there is a danger here. bernie moreno, they may see him as the less electable candidate. this is ohio. he this is a state that donald trump carried by eight points this is a candidate who is talking about january 6.
5:24 am
defendants as political prisoners just like trump, it worked in 2022. none of the candidates that democrats elevated, actually one of the general election, they were easier to beat the general election, but the downside is you put people like this potentially in the senate and that's why we see a very thorough debate. and the democratic party about whether they should be doing these kinds of things a presidential election you're right, and that's what's different about 20:22. now where former president donald trump is front and center. i mean, you have him rallying his base. and so his backing could have a different effect. and you're like this one compared to where we were in the midterms. yeah. >> and a lot of these candidates, like as you see the map here >> on your screen, there really democrats will have to pick up she's texas and florida, and they're defending so many difficult states, ohio being one of them, west virginia being one of them, montana being another one. west virginia is an open senate seat or does it i tend to chance to talk to senator joe manchin about his decision to retire.
5:25 am
now, there is some talk happening in the democratic side that maybe we mentioned can make a last-ditch run because there's a controversial candidate, a convicted felon. in fact, don blankenship, who went to jail for a year over his handling of the coal mine disaster that happened several years ago in west virginia. he's a democratic candidate. perhaps he could win the nomination there on the republican side, there's a governor, the governor jim justice, expected to be the nominee, leases the front runner for the nomination there. chuck schumer brought up the idea to joe manchin that consider running again, consider designed not to entire, especially if this primary turns out the way that they fear and the democratic side and mentioned would point i asked him about it. he didn't quite rule it out >> that's going to happen. i think that's a long, long long-shot scenario. >> there's i've heard that then you've had conversations with chuck schumer, been we'll we're tracking have conversations about everything. and i understand the scenario which have to see what unfolds
5:26 am
relabel this primary after the primary may i think the second tuesday at mayors? the primary. i'll tell you a lot more. it's just it's been brought up to me many times on that. yeah. but i have no i haven't given serious thought. let's put it that way. >> it sounds like it's a highly unlikely but not 100% now, is that fair? >> i don't know if anything in washington dc is 100% geomagic and never close the door. >> yeah >> exactly what i was going to say if there's anything he loves, it's keeping us on. are you just don't know what movie is going to do next. so we can keep pursuing him and asking them, asking thank him the same question. what are you going to do right >> well, i was just going to say that it was interesting when he announced that he was going to leave it as president biden put out a statement and he took a moment to acknowledge all of the things that asunder helped him with his biggest legislative accomplishments are setting up or whatever happens next. there was help that was provided to the biden administration again, they wanted to pass it. >> the reason why this is being bought up just shows you how difficult was senate map it is for democrats, they'll take
5:27 am
any opportunity to improve their chances, which are moment, not so good. all right. coming up the republican and republicans >> squabbling that a speaker johnson telling his members to quote, knock it off the texas contest. that's in the spotlight >> the best thing about runoffs is you find out who your enemies are and you find out who your allies are you can never do that in politics >> there is no media personality. >> business woman celebrity chef, like her >> the many lives of martha stewart now streaming on macs. >> awkward question, is there going to be anything left, leftover? >> oh, absolutely. >> my kids don't know what they want. you know, who knows what she wants. i want to massage in a month see from someone named john carlos and i didn't live in that shoe box for years, not just with empower. >> we get all of our financial questions answered. >> so you don't have to worry,

5:31 am
>> the whole story with anderson cooper tonight at eight on cnn one of the big story lines and 118th congress has been the seemingly endless feuding among the house republican majority. now they're adding fuel to the fire, setting. republicans are actively campaigning to take out their own colleagues in
5:32 am
primaries. a major breach of protocol. but 1, that underscores the bad blood in the house gop conference. now when at least four primary elections, republican lawmakers are maneuvering to defeat their own colleagues and speaker johnson has had enough. he told my colleague melanie zanona at this past weeks gop retreat that he's told us members to cool it. it's not productive and causes division for obvious reason but as my new reporting with melanie reveals, johnson's warnings haven't changed the tide yet, especially with florida firebrand, matt gaetz, who led the charge to oust kevin mccarthy from the speakership in the fall. gates skip the retreat this past week and instead fluted texas to rally within look candidate challenging incumbent republican congressman tony gonzales. if the second primary that gaetz has tried to meddle with in this past year. my panel is back, so i've talked to gaetz is not the only one which there are several others that are trying to knock other colleagues. i did talk to gaetz about why he's doing this and why is targeting congressman so
5:33 am
why 20 gonzalez? >> i cannot save the country with the current congress we have, we're going to need new members and better members. i would love nothing more than to just go after democrats but if republicans are going to dress up like democrats and drag, i'm gonna go after them too, because at the end of the day, we're not judged by how many republicans we have in congress were judged on whether or not we saved the country i mean, so much it's a fight about tactics and how to achieve their objective, no compromise versus some incremental progress. but gaetz, obviously enjoys stirring the pot. >> absolutely not surprising. i have to say it is a question about governing right and how it's defined by house republicans, you have this pragmatic, more pragmatic wing who is willing to compromise among republicans and sometimes with democrats. and then you have that maga wing who just wants to keep pushing policies further and the way that they like to see it. so they're
5:34 am
both arguing. >> i need >> my kind of republican to make up the house republican conference so that we can pass whatever what kind of legislation each group thinks is best. that's why we're seeing a lot of far-right members trying to oust more of those compromising republicans if you want to call them that way, like tony gonzales did back gun reform because he represents uvalde but we're also now see more of those pragmatic republicans, the main street partnership represents this main street caucus, one of the five ideological families in the conference also start to go after freedom caucus chair bob good because they want more quote, unquote, governing republicans to make up the company. >> yeah, and that's one of the four republicans so actually i'm going, bob, good. there's, we have, the people who are attending a fundraiser for bob goods challenge. are there several of these conservative, some more moderate members somewhere establishment members, people who are aligned with the leadership, trying to oust the leader of the freedom caucus that hard-right block, but just getting back to texas
5:35 am
because i think one of the things that's revealing about all this as you alluded to here, is the issue of compromise and how that creates problems in primaries tony gonzales represents uvalde. he voted for this change and gun laws in the last congress. also, he voted to codify same-sex marriage as caused him some problems on the right as well. i asked with these stood by those two votes >> those >> votes are you stand by those two votes? >> of course. yeah. look, what happened in uvalde should have never happened, not because he was 18 years old, not because he was an ar because he was crazy. right? so crazy people should not have access to kill innocent people. i'm a father of six. whatever gay is, i'm about his further away, far away from that is possible. but i've served with all different kinds of people in the military you name it, and i look, i look at the merit of an individual but luck it run out. are very difficult, especially when you're facing people who are
5:36 am
buying go to the right of you in a low >> turnout election, he could be double. >> yeah. and the gun vote, i think especially is an issue here these are these are we're seeing a situation which with these members coming out against tony gonzales targeting him for these kinds of votes. we're already seeing the republican party kind of coalesce around a vision that has donald trump's, we're going to see less and less of votes like that. so this is a guy who comes from a district that had a very localized experience on this issue and he voted according to the district what we're seeing from gates and others is they're basically trying to push him into a different direction, vote more along the party lines, not step outside of the norm of your party. and it's gonna be really interested, interesting to see whether he can survive in a primary >> and look, this is not just gates are others as well. congressman ralph norman, target of fellow south carolina republican will timmons and other house freedom caucus members also going after the sitting congressman >> as i told him, i think he's
5:37 am
to change this place. we have to make some drastic changes we're losing a country. we're going bankrupt. >> he just hadn't >> taken a leadership role in my opinion and we've got man now that heading the freedom caucus kristen south carolina, he will fight for freedom and he will be one of us. >> he'll be one of us. that's what he said about this challenge are now i spent last week also talking about a lot of republicans about all of intraparty warfare. and it just speaks to just the low morale within the house. republican conference right now >> this is depressing when you have your own team turning on each other because you don't want when that happens, teams and we've undermined the norms of what we've had going back really a couple of centuries, frankly, now we're campaigning and other, each other's districts that undermines the team. so i think it's wrong and we're not going to get much involved in their stuff. they shouldn't get all dinars. that's not a >> healthy situation when you
5:38 am
start targeting other members and especially when the republican conference does, it can't do that. >> you've covered the white house. how did they view all this gop on gop infighting? >> well, they have to be a little careful here because it does undermine governing, which is what they want. they want to see legislation pass. and this stops or at least creates a massive hurdle for them to do that. but then they can also use it to their advantage. we saw that so clearly with the senate border bill that the house republicans wouldn't take up. now that hadwin reached through bipartisan compromise and including with the help of white house and administration officials. and then it was completely tanked. and so now you hear the president using now the campaign trail to say, look, house republicans don't want to work with us. they're not doing their job. but then within the white house, they want them to do their jobs so that they can make sure that the government is funded so they can try to get other legislation passed. they can also tout on the campaign trail. so it's all pretty delicate. but if anything, in an election year, it does help
5:39 am
them boost their campaign messaging by saying house republicans are so tied up amongst themselves that they can't get anything done. and democrats, can, you look a lot of these districts that there's in fighting the incumbents are endorsing it so they're incumbents. these are not terribly competitive districts, so it's not like getting a more extreme candidate through the primary is going to cost the party in the general election. but on the margins, the fact that the conferences is going after each other like this it's not the only example of this kind of infighting. we're seeing rules felkel four, we're seeing measures supported by the speaker fell on the floor. if a very close house majority heading into the 2024 election, even on the margins hurting them in a few of these districts potentially could matter greatly. >> yeah. and the makeup of the members does matter is seen in a narrow majority we want to compromise, not compromise you've seen a lot of nadh compromise. all right. coming up spoiler alert who some democrats or why some democrats are worried, rfk junior could potentially cause joe biden,

5:45 am
have in some states, look at this fox news poll in pennsylvania >> recently, >> 9%, that is what r of k junior polls in general head-to-head matchup. it's really no clear leader. there. >> it's down to 40 242 also no clear leader between biden and trump. if rfk junior is they're getting 9%. you talked to the biden campaign, you cover the biden campaign. how are they dealing with the threat of rfk junior? >> well, it's very real that in 2016, millions of votes went to third party candidates. they don't want to see that play out again in battleground states. and so the way they're dealing with it is sending the president, the vice president and out on the road, they know they have to shore up these votes because otherwise, it's very real possibility they're gonna go to third party candidates or not go to vote at all. and so just look at what the president's doing since the state of the union he is hitting multiple battleground states. it's being on the road. >> yeah, it's not if you look at your map there on the screen, there's all he's that's where allocate junior the number of swing states you'd priscilla also mentioned the fact that the third-party candidates, it was obviously a big issue. jill stein and
5:46 am
wisconsin, michigan, and pennsylvania in 2016 pulling always in kyiv vose probably would have when many of those two hillary clinton, i asked democrats how trump now biden should deal, should he go after rfk junior or not? have a real clear sense, but there is concern >> i'm >> wondering, do we construct but threat that rfk junior made pose to joe biden by siphoning off keyvault, including in michigan. >> i really don't. i think that fans? he's taken are very radical and i don't think every mpi post as much of a threat. >> i'm deeply concerned about the threat of a third candidate. so i think the danger of a third party is in some the battleground states where could be very close and what he ought to be doing is directly confronting issues that are raised. >> so difference in strategy you confront, are not confront. >> yeah. well, at least the
5:47 am
dnc, they're trying to confront unlike 2016, they actually have entire staff devoted to trying to turn people off from third-party candidates. so there arguing that they are not taking this for granted, and we have also seen a number of different democratic groups try and sue a super pac that rfk's affiliated with trying to get his name off of a number of balance and air and you wrote about rfk junior impact. they have mine here could anti-vaccine republicans ditch trump for rfk junior, how do you see it? >> yeah. i mean, this is also about persuasion. this is not just about diminishing their vote totals rfk junior, they could credibly make a case that he is more aligned with some of these trump's supporters. and the vaccines are an issue on which that could be the case. right now, rfk juniors drawing about evenly between the two candidates. he's taking a lot more from independence third party candidates are whole, seemed to be pulling more from biden, but not rfk. but he's a lot more popular among republicans than he is
5:48 am
democrats. so if democrats can message this correctly and maybe push some of those trump's supporters who maybe feel very strongly about a vaccine issue into rfk juniors camp. they may not necessarily want him to do that poorly. >> look, i wouldn't be surprised of democratic super pac emerges and such rfk jr. maybe the biden campaign doesn't want to spend its money and resources. but as my going and said, the dnc's starting to make some noise about it and maybe some third-party group has good as well. >> yeah, very much so i mean, that's why you build the infrastructure and shore up the funds to do exactly that. yeah. i mean, when you're talking to members, just generally, i mean, how concerned are today about rfk junior right now or about any of these any other third party? yeah. i mean, it is absolutely concern, especially since the democrats have to turn out their base it's right, especially when you talk to house democrats, they kind of feel like it's on them to even shore up biden. yeah >> so if they're also having to compete with others, it can get a little tricky there. >> absolutely. all right. coming up more after senator katie britt's widely panned
