fight ahead for trump l s legal team. jessica schneider, thank for all of that reporting this morning, starting us off. joining us now, shelby talcott and john avlon is back with us. that s the point, right, john? no other defendant has gotten that change of venue. it s delayed. that s the point. of course it s delayed. that s what donald trump does. he projects, deflects, and tries to delays when it comes to court cases. this is an incident that happened definitively in washington, d.c., when he was president. living in washington, d.c. if the other three dozen folks haven t had luck in changing the venue, donald trump hasn t either. what do you make of what we heard from mike pence over the weekend on the sunday shows, talking to dana, et cetera, but also, trump s lawyers saying, like, mike pence is going to be our best defense witness. yeah, i noticed that also. i think that s really interesting. and i m curious why they re so confident, i guess, in why he would be their b
a tandem at home. you will see a lot more of the two of them together. speaking of new hampshire we have more. dana: want to bring in the republican governor of new hampshire chris sununu. great to have you here. no shortage of candidates stopping by to see. the reception seemed like a good group. what is your assessment of the desantis campaign so far in new hampshire after they spent two days in iowa? his legislature is done and getting his campaign underway. he understands the value of retail politics. thought it was a darn good speech. not just about the woke stuff. he talks about fiscal discipline and doing things in washington that folks haven t gotten done. whether it s ron or all the candidates, that s what we have to be talking about. where washington has failed and what you will bring to the table tomorrow. not relitigating yesterday but what you bring to the table tomorrow. we have a whole circus of candidates as they come through new hampshire and they know the
defaulted on our debt. it should be much ahigher than that. inflation is bad. risk of recession a bad. banking turmoil, not so great. global financial crisis, way worse. way worse. it s also a function. fact that folks haven t seen it, so it s hard to imagine. i mean, you can t overstate how reckless this game of chicken is. it s the opposite of fisically responsible. it makes.com look dysfunctional. the only people to benefits are countries like china who want to see the united states removed as the world currency. we can t even take care of our own house. these are the the stakes. this is not a lever to pull to push your own political agenda. do that through the budget. but here we are. why is it a mistake for the democrats not to do it when they have control of both chambers? i think so. there were voices warning this is coming. this groundhog day only when a democratic is president and they had unified control and could
he is the one that needs to get the nomination because democrats will win. you better have somebody on that stage who can do to him whatwhat i did to that s they thing that will defeat donald trump. most voters won t make their decision two or weeks before. a lot of folks haven t been introduced to the other candidates. take the fall to separate ourselves. bret: we will see. the g.o.p. primary kind of coming into order. although a lot of people are not in yet. nikki haley is already saying how she could win the nomination. the former south carolina governor. former u.n. ambassador saying there is a playbook for beating donald trump and winning the nomination. as to the town hall event on the campaign trail tuesday evening in new hampshire how she will defeat trump haley said whether you look at the situation we have trump has 25% of republican it s a hard 25%. trump or no one.
emerging no, i don t like ron, and no, i don t like non-republican? is that a thing, is it real? or is this just something that s made up? this is a question i would ask you, former chamber of the rnc. but you know what? i think some of these people who are thinking of running, who aren t ron or don, they re hoping for that to come on. we ve looked at the polls over the last few weeks. donald trump is gaining in support. he s raising money hand over fist, over that insane social media posts that he put in put out last saturday. nikki haley, who s the only other person declared in the race, other than donald trump, she has been in the low single digits. i mean, you would think that she would be someone who could get that neither ron, neither don crowd. clearly, she s not gaining traction, so no. also because donald trump, he is the man to beat. he is, he is. and folks haven t figure that part out yet. so tim, to the point that jonathan just raise about nikki, you ve got haley and he
