Now this perhaps once inevitable nominee looking more and more damaged. Cruz leading by ten. Count that up, obviously a reversal of 20 points total for trump over the month. Should trump lose the 42 delegates in the wisconsin primary, it would be his first real big set back since the secondplace showing in the iowa caucus in february and come after what has been by all accounts a rough week. Thats included charges filed against his Campaign Manager, cor corey for assaulting a woman, abortions, and today trump looking to close the polling gap. Three big events in wisconsin. Cruz has a stop in wisconsin later this evening. First, looking ahead, he was at the north dakota gop convention, where there are unbound delegates up for grabs. Kasich has a town hall scheduled to begin momentarily. One of three stops in wisconsin. And dont forget about the democrats. There is a tight race in the state. And the most recent poll, sanders edging Hillary Clinton out 4843 and she will be attending a get
Campaign manager, corey lewandowski, for allegedly grabbing the arm of a former reporter for a conservative website. The incident occurred after trumps primary Night Press Conference on march 8th. It happened as trump was exiting the ballroom. Thats when a breitbart reporter named Michelle Fields approached trump with a question. And lewandowski his Campaign Manager allegedly intervened. Police in jupiter, florida, say the crime was caught on tape, closed circuit video. That they say shows lewandowski grabbing for fields. Hes now facing a criminal charge for battery or unwanted touching. Thats a misdemeanor charge. The Police Report details an audio recording from fields cell phone that says, i cant believe he just did that. That was so hard, was that corey . After the Trump Campaigns initial denials earlier this month, fields tweeted what she said she was a photo of bruises on her arm, saying, quote, i guess these just magically appeared on me. She filed a Police Report three days lat
Good afternoon. Im erica hill in new york. We want to begin this hour with a portion of an interview just into us from an msnbc town hall, which Chris Matthews taped just a short time ago with donald trump. Mathews asks the rk frontrunner about abortion, specifically, whether a woman should be punished for having an abortion if the courts were to rule abortions were illegal. Heres part of that exchange. Should the woman be punished for having an abortion . Look this is not something you can dong. If you say abortion is a crime or murder, you have to deal with it under the law. Should abortion be punished . Well, people in certain parts of the Republican Party and conservative republicans would say yes, they should be punished. How about you . I would say that its a very serious problem. And its a problem that we have v but youre for banning it. Wait. Are you going to say put them in jail . Im asking you. You say you want to ban it. Whats that mean . I am against i am prolife, yes. How
Anywhere else in the National Media about something that the Republican National Committee Just did which is so sleazy i actually feel personal anger about it. That does not happen to me with all that many news stories and especially with all that many partisan politics stories, but this is so gross i almost cannot believe they are doing it. And i hope they will stop. Weve got that story ahead tonight. I hereby predict that that story will gross you out. I hereby guess that todays story of this alleged republican sex scandal already has grossed you out. And so because i want us to be friends, because its friday, because im in a nice place, san francisco, as a little palate cleanser, as a little digestive relief before we get into those uglier stories, tonight lets do ourselves a little favor and just start with something adorable. I grew up in a family without a lot of money. My parents never went to college. I want every kid in oregon and washington and vermont to understand that if h
