who haven t bent their knee. a long list of republicans. not long enough, but i agree. maggie, do you have a sense when the last time trump and pence spoke? i think it s been quite a while anderson, spoke a number of times as i understand last year, one of which around when pence had his book deal and that became public and trump i think was reacting when he started insulting pence in front of donors at a republican national committee retreat, i think it was in reaction to pence getting a book deal, i think their conversations petered up soon after that and i don t expect any in the near future. if trump s candidate can t pull this off in georgia tomorrow, what does that say about the former president, about his power? nothing, look, if you look, there is a recent poll out that says donald trump s still incredibly popular with georgia republican primary voters, i think something, you know, high 70s, maybe low 80s, like the former president, they just don t care much about his
governor material for any state much less our state where she hates to live. what s your reaction. a, it s disgusting and he s demeaning the human race talking that way, first of all he s lying, she never told black farmers other thing, said there should be jobs other than hospitality and agriculture in georgia, but she didn t make it racial, he made it racial and for him to say she should go back where she came from, you know, she spent most her life in georgia. this is the kind of stuff, you know, he s failing, losing, and losing for a reason. he jumped in based on a lie and still lying. maggie, in terms of the purdue race, do you know how the former president is feeling or viewing this privately? is he going to change endorsement strategy going forward? there is some talk about the idea he is going to lay off jumping into a lot of these races, i don t think you re going to see something like this but this was a pretty unique situation because of how trump feels about kemp, h
you know, you re talking about resources, anderson, i think the president has $180 million i think in the super pac, somewhere in that number, maggie probably knows better but $2 million gets ah week of tv in georgia, it s an expensive media market so if he was all in for david purdue would have burned some of that cash if he was serious about it. you know, it s, put your money where your mouth is i think in that instance. appreciate it, david urban mentioned the pennsylvania primary, get the latest on that specifically, yet undecided republican senate race, dr. mehmet oz who the former president is backing, still holding on to a slim, david mccormick as the votes are being counted. joning us from state capitol, harrisburg, how likely the race head to see a recount? oh, anderson, almost certainly. recount would be automatically triggered if the race is within half a percentage point and the margins here continue to be razor thin, currently dr. oz
predictably, earned the governor this. your rhino governor bryan kemp who has been a complete disaster. he sold you out. this guy s a disaster. a complete and total disaster. he s absolutely nothing. bryan kemp is a turn-coat, a coward, he s a disaster. i m ashamed i endorsed him. brian kemp let us down, we can t let it happen again. that kind of open hospitilit was expected, what was not is a former president and vice-president split into a chasm. maggie haggerman, i mean, this rift is growing. does this statement is assume it takes it to another level. it s very intense, very personal. it s the kind of thing, i mean i was thinking about, a, there s no precedent for this in modern history with a former president and vice-president i can think of but i was trying to think of the last time you heard trump really criticize pence and of
clinton to be honest. i m just going to be my own little self and kind of keep going along and saying what i believe in and putting forth changes that i think would be good for the country. and, you know, i m not looking for ratings. i m looking for votes. a lot to talk about. joining me now, john king and cnn political analyst and new york times presidential correspondent maggie haggerman. it seems like her comments about donald trump have probably gotten the most attention, which kind of tells you all you need to know about the dynamics of this race right now. the dynamics of the race and of this interview. look at her face and watch your energy when she is talking about donald trump, an issue which she thinks plays to her advantage, helps her appeal to latino voters and others in the democratic base and lets her take some swings at the republicans and not completely accurate swings about the other republican candidates and where they stand on these positions. but look at the e
