donald trump s continued election lies about the 2020 election is trump had far more power, far more influence over the process than any of these candidates do. as much as kari lake would like to perhaps continue denying the result of the election, her ability to actually change those results or to try and influence it through some kind of january 6th moment is limited. the question is does kari lake want to run again? what does she think the best strategy is if she wants to have a future in politics. we saw across the country, whether it s mastriano in pennsylvania, maggie hassan says today the american people and republicans should take note. election denying doesn t work. i think the people of the united states of america resoundedly rejected election deniers. they know how dangerous it is. i think we need to focus on changing our campaign finance system, and i think we need to
they hold oregon as well. democrats looking at the governor s race and saying we have built a bench for the future. kari lake saying even before we made the projection last night, this is not over. somehow i must have been cheated. i don t believe that people of arizona would vote for her and that she would win, but if that s what happens at the end of the day, how do you certify an election that is this botched, and she s the one that would certify her own election where it was botched where the machines didn t work in more than a third of the polling centers. i don t know how we remedy this, but the people of arizona are furious. they re reaching out to us by the thousands saying i don t think my vote even was counted. with me in studio to share their reporting and insights, jackie ka sen itch of the daily beech, and tia mitchell. kari lake says arizonians know bs when they see it. no, arizonians know math, tough
government from doing its job, ma moving on to the next president, where are we? i think we still have one more election to go through, which is in december. there s been no indications so far that the activity has picked up at the justice department. it may well be that they ll wait another couple of weeks, you know, for the december runoff in georgia. but look, i mean, you can see fwa s georgia s already starting to have their activity pick up. the clock is ticking for the justice department. they have to start making decisions of where they re going to go with these cases, especially the mar-a-lago case, which is all there already. in the mar-a-lago case, the washington post saying some of the prosecutors think it s his ego. i m fgoing to take these documents, i m the former president, and i want these documents. sf is that a defense? why he did it is irrelevant to the statute. they would have an argument when they go into court saying, look, consistently this is why he kept
voters is where it was a bridge too far. we also need to be really clear. donald trump is the unquestioned front runner for the republican nomination in 2024. sure. and i think that over the the last week, as much as as bad as some of trump s numbers with independent voters, as much as he may have hurt republican candidates in various states, his approval numbers with republican base voters are still sky high, and i think there s been a lot of wishful thinking perhaps among the republican consulting class that things have changed. i don t know that that much has changed. we ll see, that s about to be put to the test. it s a stunning point you make, he is by far the most dominant in there, losing 2018, and losing 2020 and 22 again. three times. the former vice president mike pence will join jake tapper for a live cnn town hall tomorrow night. next all the investigations trump wants you to ignore. just today georgia s republican governor is a grand jury witness facing ques
former president like this or a candidate for the presidency. it s kind of a place we ve never been before. to this candidate question, whether you charge donald trump with a kcrime today or tomorrow after he s announced as a candidate for presidency, he s still the most famous person on the planet after, i think, the rock and justin bieber. literally, nothing changes when he s a candidate for office. it s just a question of whether you think you have the facts and the law to charge him. he gin undes up his people b saying it s another witch hunt. i m trying to save america, i m trying to be your president. that s his argument, which he has used effectively to keep his base. they had to pause at the justice department, they don t stop but they get more quiet around election season. we re almost out of election season. i don t know where they restart the clock. we haven t called the house yet. maybe it takes a week or two. when you look at the classified documents investigation, did
