seconds left but i think it s worth noting that the lieutenant governor in florida is mimicking some of the talking points and policies that we ve seen from governor greg abbott in texas saying that she wants to bus migrants to delaware. what does it say to you that they are now copycatting each other and most extreme rhetoric? we have seen it s really hard to be black in texas through georgia, so probably get arrested five times before they even get to delaware. this rhetoric is crazy and it s racist and it s the kind of thing that feeds into the media ecosystem of the right, but it doesn t do any good. at the end of the day, you may please some people in your state with this kind of nonsense, but that stuff doesn t go over as, they think in the fox news eco sphere that they think it will. doctor jason johnson thank you. david jolly thank you for being with us. coming up, as red state governors dump more migrants in
seen is not all that enthusiasm but it s enthusiasm alicia at the local level. you had senators who had no chance of being in the league leading now an important states, all of the same time joe biden is still underwater on a national polls. i appreciate that dr. johnson gave me the ability to test my mathematical abilities at 11 pm at night. that equation. do you think it s really that simple? i think it s government overreach on abortion or the more going on here? are there atmospherics, things like inflation, the way that feel when they go to the grocery store, or fell up at the tank. and some perception now that they re watching democrats actually move legislation through congress. so they re thinking maybe government can get something done? i m gonna make friends with both of you. i think it s all of it. look the dobbs decision is a major contributor to this. i look at a kind of like this alicia. in the midterms we know historically the party out of power typically advances. t
candidate, the rnc s neutrality rules would kick in and it raises the question that should the rnc continue to pay to underwrite donald trump s legal defense. so maybe that donald trump now has his handcuffs on. he wants to declare politically but financially might not be able to. doctor johnson what do you say? yeah. as david said before, there are multiple reasons. donald trump is going to be held responsible or blamed for giving credit, no matter what happens with the republican organization. it s not a party anymore, it s a dime store front for a terrorist organization based on his personality. it doesn t really matter, he can announce today, in five weeks, he can announce in 2024 in march. it s not gonna matter because there s no other republican, even ron desantis who could actually beat him in a semi functional primary. so i think the speculation as to when he announces is not important. what s going to be key though is that if the democrats not
got our guy in, midterms don t matter that much. this is an example this year or that has been turned on its head. just a few months ago, the midterms did not look good for democrats but the momentum may now be swinging in their favor. the latest and these nbc news poll say the republicans have a narrow lead lead, all threats of democracy has now moved against ahead of cost of living for voters. republican democrats have now the gap. with us tonight jason johnson, politics professor morgan state university, is also an msnbc contributor, and david jolly former member of the u.s. house of representatives. now chairman of the serve america movement, and he s also an and msnbc political contributor. gentlemen it s good to see both you.
