thing. if you ve been to an ie ka caucus it takes a commitment. people have to spend all night long. they haven t done this sort of thing. what s interesting is somebody s analysis of trump is te controversial comments when he s the most vulnerable. let e s say he seen that poll in iowa. there s also a correlation between the amount of immediate where where a candidate gets and wherewz1 are in the polls. that seems to be the case. rar ri is right to correct me on the fact that a caucus is different than a primary. it s a commitment. that s a different voter than your typical, the other one was just adults who are republicans and that means a lot more than i think the other poll which is a
no, no. and it would be interesting to see a different donald trump playing on the campaign trail now to try to tone himself down a little bit. humble out of his lane, shall we say. not his strong suit. that is right. let e let s talk about paul singer, the billionaire for a second, and your doppelganger. his endorsement of marco rubio, and talking with susan de delpercio, and what about jeb bush? well, he is reducing the expenditures of the campaign and downsizing a little bit, and then paul singer, the other guy, who is a very well established republican donor, not only announces that he is basically buying all of the stock in marco ru rubio, but he also has a tremendous network, and immediately sends word to the network saying, hey, pals, and friends in the republican party,
most senior religious leaders. but for the time being maliki insists he is going to stay in power and suggesting that he is going to solve this problem militarily. milissa, back to you. thank you very much. and joining me is former iraq vet and msnbc contributor, and also professor at carnegie mellon university and former adviser to newt gingrich s presidential adviser. and congressman, let e s start with you, the president has said no come can bat troops on the ground. is that realistic and how effective can the u.s. be with just a few hundred advisers? well, the president, himself, said it needs to be a political solution and not a military one. he has directed that 300 of our men and women special fovrss need to gone the ground to actm troops will be in the iraqi
