>> laura: wiley pelosi, with a magnet? it's perfect. no matter what the democrats throw at trump, they can't take him down, it's driving them crazy. their predictions about the president's staying power have been spectacular flops. here are a few predictions from yours truly. the president will get nominated with overwhelming support from his party and independents while democrats nominate someone with almost zero ability to connect with americans outside of major cities. despite their series of political debacles, they will learn very little and just end up blaming the voters once again. and that's the angle. joining me now is robert ray, senior fellow in constitutional scholar.
