it has gone up from 29% to 41%. "wall street journal" poll, u.s. support for israel and the war with hamas, that's at 52%. you could see why the administration originally wanted to put all of that together in one supplemental. >> yes. the administration was very, very different from house republicans where there is even less support for ukraine aid and more support for israel aid. i think the new speaker kind of called the president's bluff on that by passing very quickly an israel military aid bill. and the biden administration has said absolutely not. we -- i will veto this, unless you include ukraine aid with that and republicans were suspicious, thinking that biden was actually trying to use the newer conflict in israel as a way to get more support for ukraine, which has been falling and it also, biden was asking for so much money for ukraine that he wouldn't have to ask again before the election. and this is not the way the new republican leadership wants to work and so far they are in a standoff on it. >> bret: yeah. the senator, tim scott, dropping out of the republican race on trey gody's show last night, sunday night in america. among other things, he said this the vice president has never been on my to-do list on this campaign and certainly not now. i look forward to keeping to working hard to make sure in the future that i can continue to win the respect and the admiration of voters. >> bret: stef, he ran kind of a polite, positive campaign it didn't take off. it wasn't moving the needle. >> it wasn't. he had plenty of money behind him. he would saw his campaign aggressive approach spending that money in the past few months a good reminder that money isn't everything in politics. he just wasn't able to move the needle really at all, just barely qualified for the latest debate. i don't think this is surprising. and, you know, he says he is not interested in the vice presidential role. it will be interesting whether some of these candidates remaining end up for running vice presidential. >> bret: haley campaign suggesting they are trying to get big supporters for tim scott. the biggest political news that got a lot of attention, brit, was from the president's speech over the weekend saturday in new hampshire talking about his political enemies, former president, i should say. take a listener. >> we pledge to you that we will root out the communist, marxist, fascist and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections and will do anything possible. they will do anything whether legally or illegally to destroy america. "the washington post" said this trump calls political enemies vermin echoing dictators hitler and mussolini. he goes on to talk to historians and effectively using the language of hitler and mussolini. there is a lot of coverage of that, brit. what's your coverage of that and the framing of it? >> >> brit: well, i don't see hitler and mussolini. we had four years of trump we didn't get hitler or mussolini he behaved in a way many thought was represent prehence cybil and not becoming of a president. the thing that struck me was he always gets around to complaining about that stolen election. that's -- and that -- and he campaigned basically on that for a long time. it hasn't hurt his support in the republican party but in the general election, i think it would be articleful for him to keep talking about that. it's too little, too late, and most people don't believe it. >> byron, quickly, there are concerns about a second trump administration on the front of going after political enemies. there have been multiple stories about that. just no comment about it from the campaign nor the former president. >> yeah, we have known the former president, if he gets back in office, is planning to use the justice department much more aggressively against some political opponents because he feels that's exactly what has been done to him. whether he would actually do it in office, we just don't know. >> bret: we don't. but we will follow it all. panel, thanks so much. ♪ ♪ >> bret: finally tonight people are celebrating the festival of lights, homes, businesses with oil lamps traditional imreeghts saying wish you a brings you happiness, prosperity and joy. biggest hindu celebration. happy diwali. tomorrow on "special report," democratic congresswoman madeline dean, republican senator jerry moran try to find common ground, fair, balanced and still unafraid. big show tonight. laura is next. ♪
