iraq too soon. that s what led to al-qaeda resurging and pulling out of isis in the first place. let me ask you a question. you ve seen the president s phone call with the ukrainian president and the president on the white house lawn saying, hey, china, investigate joe biden. in the simpilous terms should the u.s. president of any party ask or seek the help of a foreign country in a u.s. election? look, i am not comfortable if there is a clear-cut quid pro quo, then, yeah that makes me very uncomfortable and we should take a hard look at that. but, jim, that s not how i read this transcript and i think a lot of people are projecting, you know, what happened there. i think you would also call i think you d also call a clear-cut vote. if it s so clear-cut and people believe that s what happened then i believe you would also call on my democratic colleagues to take a vote up or down.
i just don t more than the president standing in the white house lawn saying, hey, china, you want to investigate my political opponent? and real pushback from the senate here, i think when half the republican senate will probably speak out or has spoken out and may actually get a resolution, disapproval or something along policy lines, but on this issue, until we know a lot more, that looks much worse for the president, i don t see those members coming across the line yet. okay. depends who you ask? right? as far as whether it looks bad for the president or not. ask the american people, look at the new poll out, 58% endoers opening of the house impeachment inquiry, 49% say the house should take a more significant step imimpeaching him, calling for his removal. if republicans start losing public support, will that, then,
but we ll city strong winds and hail and maybe a tornado or two. but they should be small. that s this area, anywhere from waukee down to childress, texas. you see a big warm one the oranges and reds, 90 degrees in louisville. this heat does build this week. so we ll see the warmest week in quite a while. take a look going into tuesday. you see all of this here, chicago up to 90 degrees. warming up across the eastern seaboard. by the time we get to the day on wednesday, 98 in raleigh. heating up quite a bit. heat wave! good lawn mowing weather. so all the dads out here are driving through pennsylvania yesterday to a kid s birthday party. every dad was out mowing their lawn saying, i m not doing this tomorrow. and preparing their food. but the kids are doing it for dad. what s the point of kids if they don t mow your lawn?
this was all reported in the new york times over the christmas holidays. there s a long pattern of this guy being a bully. and i think that politically is his problem. i don t think he can recover from that. ari, in the run-up to this, this has been going on, the public maybe nationally knows about this just in the last day or two. this has been covered in new jersey for more than 100 days. did the governor do enough in the run-up to this to investigate it? probably not. i think if he had thought this was going to be the staff lying to him he would is said to somebody else, you need to come, in investigate this. i don t believe my staff. i think you have to take it at face value he had reason to believe his staff, that s why he was so angry today about it. paul s partially right here. what you ve got now going forward, the gate and bridge gate is starting to fade. no gate unless christie lied today. i don t think that s the case. you ll have the regular bottom line usual scandal.
i don t believe my staff. i think you have to take it at face value he had reason to believe his staff, that s why he was so angry today about it. paul s partially right here. what you ve got now going forward, the gate and bridge gate is starting to fade. no gate unless christie lied today. i don t think that s the case. you ll have the regular bottom line usual scandal. e-mails get revealed. other things about this staff or that staff. reporters staking out people on lawn saying did governor christie tell the truth today. they ll try to find the deputy chief of staff and do that to her. it won t fully go away. what you just heard is the first superpac add of the 2016 race if christie is the candidate for the republicans. the democrats will cling to this. i don t think calling somebody a bully is exactly a disqualifying charge for the president of the united states. there are a lot of issues out there. i don t think in the republican primary this amounts to a hill of beans. he dealt w
