Mason and this is our western edition. Good evening. Im Anthony Mason. Congressional investigators now want phone and email records of everyone involved in that meeting with the russian lawyer at trump tower last year. Their interest in what happened there is growing after the president s story changed. At first his lawyer denied the president helped his son put out a misleading statement about the meeting. But yesterday the white house admitted that the president weighed in on that statement. The special counsels investigation of russian meddling in the u. S. Election is widening, as well.

A recent survey shows that more republicans feel their side is losing than women. Some are day dreaming about life after trump. A number of republicans including senators tom cotton and ben sass and john kasich are discarding the respect, it is almost as if trumps fellow republicans might have a loser on their hands. Joining me now is evan seigfried. Im going to start with you right here at the desk we me, evan. Donald trumps numbers are not good to say the least. Lets go through this stunning poll. His approval is at 33 . A historic low. His rating with republicans is around 76 . We talked about where that danger zone is where other republicans will begin to abandon him. Is that it . No, among white, noncollege educated voters, that has been his strongest supporters. When youre talking about what is going on here, why isnt President Tr
