they're on board with following the president's political instincts on this. >> melanie, you cover congress. what's the bleedover impact for the races in the house and sena senate? >> there is a lot of concern of how this is going to impact them in 2020. a lot of these mod ralts and minorities left the party in 2018 and republicans are so concerned, in fact, that i talked to multiple members of glop leadership, who are normally staunch allies to the president. i think their worry is that this is going to become the campaign mantra, that this is going to defiend the party. as we've mentioned, they would much rather focus on the progressive policies of these women, focus on things like the green new deal, medicare for all. they do not want to engage in these ugly, personal.
