Its still Christmas Eve. Is home alone 2 your favorite holiday movie . Well, im in home alone 2, so a lot of people mention it every year, right around christmas. They say, i just saw you in the movie. I was a little bit younger, to put it mildly, and it was an honor to do it. It turned out to be a very big hit, obviously. We begin this hour at the president s maralago property in florida where hes spending the holidays. This morning President Trump did a Christmas Eve video call with troops around the world thanking them for their service in our country and answering their questions. But shortly after hanging up, he was right back to impeachment, focusing both on the trial to come and how the house handled its inquiry. Were in a very good position. Ul ultimately that decision will be made by Mitch Mcconnell, and he has the right to do whatever he wants. Hes the head of the senate. People remember they treated us very unfairly. They didnt give us due process. They didnt give us a lawye
themselves tonight. but for a guy like ron desantis, he doesn t have a choice. he has got to do it. he has a tremendous record behind him of accomplishments in florida. he had a tremendous record in politics getting reelected. but the problem he has had is conveying that enthusiasm that florida republicans and florida independent lapse have for him. converting that to people in iowa and new hampshire and across the country, they are just not buying what he is selling. i think he has got to figure out a way to solve that tonight or he is going to have campaign problems that won t go away. on one side vivek ramaswamy, we have no idea what this guy is capable of. he is extremely articulate and has a ton of energy. he is young looking. on the other side you have chris christie who will bulldoze everybody. constantly interrupting people, jabbering and jawboning the heck
are supposed to follow whatever happens down the pike on truth social, that s not a durable movement. during the 2016 campaign, we saw the impact of hillary clinton s basket of deplorable, is that remark going to come back to haunt desantis? will trump make sure it comes back to haunt desantis or is it one more thing in a long list of campaign problems? you have seen the trump campaign jump all over this. i think they clearly see this as a gaffe, maybe it s a little unfair to ron desantis. this is again showing he is very new to this, being under that spotlight, and maybe i ll give him a little credit towards inching towards criticizing donald trump. this shows again his struggle as a candidate, instead of attacking his opponent, he attacks voters. you don t attack voters themselves, you attack other politicians, and he failed to do that. i m sure donald trump will not let him forget that, and they re using that effectively to their
i mean, it s a pretty tough road for him to get through. not even just those issues. it s also about trump and his legal exposure. there were republicans, 22%, i believe, when they were looking at the trump/desantis head-to-head matchup that said even if they believe trump committed serious federal crimes that they would still pick him over desantis. you re a republican. what does that say about where republican voters are. donald trump has done a masterful job of convincing the american public that this is a witch hunt. these are true allegations. he s been aided by a lot of republicans in the party who if he s the nominee they re going to bear the brunt of that when he, i think, will lose to joe biden. kaitlan, he s so strong, he gets indicted and everyone else has campaign problems. we ll see if he s right about that prediction there. thank you both for being here tonight. we got our first look today at the second person accused of conspiring with trump to obstruct justice
all not true, but that s what he s done, and he s been aided by a lot of republicans in the party. if he is the nominee, they are going to bear the brunt of that. when he the, i think we ll lose to joe biden. he is so strong, he gets indicted and everybody else has campaign problems. governor asa hutchins, and we ll see if he s right about that production. jamal simmons, , tank you for being here tonight. we got our first look tonight today have the second person accused of conspiring with trump to obstruct justice what. happened when the mar-a-lago property manager appeared in court today? his arraignment is coming up. plus a growing space command saga. as president biden has decided to keep the headquarters in colorado, rejecting a trump era decision to move it to alabama. critics including democrats and republicans say the delegation is not happy. one high-pressure system that can do both. brew to your heart s desire with the l or barista system. a masterpiece in taste.
