Also a Pivotal Moment for the republican contender nikki haley . It is. President biden will be the democratic nominee and donald trump is probably going to be the republican nominee. People are saying that this is nikki haleys last band. I dont think it is the end for her. For her it isnt about the maths and the electoral college, she is trying to make a statement. I think it is crazy that conservative republicans arent taking her seriously. But i think there is more in the future for her. I dont know if it is third party or the no labels party that has been backing her so far, but i think there is more to be heard from her. And im hoping for an upset, at least in one state, tomorrow. Just for fun. Upset, at least in one state, tomorrow. Just forfun. In tomorrow. Just for fun. In terms of tomorrow. Just for fun. In terms of Super Tuesday, i have seen a few elections, as im sure you have, how would you rate this for drama . It is probably the least exciting one, isnt it . It probably t
hot button social issues, republican congressman nancy mace will join us with her take. but first correspondent matt finn with the latest hi matt. mike: the house voted to amend the annual defense spending bill by overturning policy that reimbursing service members for abortion-related expenses. the house also voted to ban transgender health services in the military. in a bitter debate republicans have been arguing in part that the abortion reis burstment is a piece of the democrats woke military agenda that republicans are trying to end. the speaker of the house kevin mccarthy says democrats are trying to change the course of history. and for decades in america, from the most proceed-life to the most pro choice person in congress they believed in the hide amendment and that is simply what it s saying. do not use taxpayer money on abortion. and the other part would be is, what they re looking at, should we allow wokism in our military. now democrats allege republicans a
2020 election. we re still not done. an nbc news analysis finds jack smith s grand jury has interviewed dozens of witnesses from little known campaign aides to the former vice president of the united states. and smith s questions are, quote, focused particularly on the fake elector scheme. smith is also said to be focused on that unhinged december 18th oval office meeting about seizing voting machines. the meeting was full of insults and conspiracy theory, concerning powell, michael flynn. here s how the people in the room described that december 18th meeting. someone screamed at me that i was a quitter, kept on standing up and turning and around screaming at me. they were fighting. the first thing i walked in and i looked at them and said who are you? people fighting with each other and hurling insults at each other. what they were proposing i thought was nuts. how nuts was it? this was the draft executive or they were pushing trump to sign: it was not written
he is now running against his former boss for the republican nomination. i have to say, mike pence has always struck me as a somewhat ridiculous figure. he always sounds like he is doing a bad impersonation of a politician. but his biggest obstacle in the republican primary is that voters do not seem to like him very much. despite his real advantage on name recognition, just 7% of republican primary voters say they would vote for pence if the primary election were held today. and this is even more damning. 37% have a negative opinion of the former vice president compared with 33% of primary voters who view him positively according to that same nbc news poll. that s what we call in, in the business, underwater on favor abilities. it s very clear reason for that. donald trump is still quite popular front runner for the republican nomination, blames mike pence. on january 6th and over and over and over again in the two and a half years since then, trump has told his followers th
