going to start going to other left-leaning candidates. so i think biden is pretty stable where he is and he might drop a little bit but at some point there s going to be a biden versus somebody and when that happens, i think the somebody s in a better position than biden in a democrat primary. paul: from 2012, it was ultimately romney versus santorum and romney won. the biden in that race won. he lost the general election but he won the primary. why couldn t biden do the same thing near. there s a little bit of a difference. the wild card is does the left come together and rally behind a single candidate. if you have four or five left candidates and biden is the only one there, it s very possible joe biden will be the nominee. the second big difference is how money is raised. mitt romney had big super pacs, big donors. the other candidates had small

higher standard from him representing our values and our constitution. and he s not doing it, and congress is the only people that can censure him and say stop doing this. it s crazy. and yet senator santorum, and obviously, you re a former senator, he s not talking to you right now, but there s no chance it s going to happen. i think it s pretty clear. am i wrong? i think to censure a president because of his rhetoric and because of his incivility i think would change the standard of what censure is all about. the reality is what the president i agree with the general. i find the president s conduct when it comes to these types of personal attacks reprehensible, but what lindsey is talking about is the president as president, governing as president, he s going to support him because he by and large agrees with what lindsey wants to do and republicans and conservatives want to do when it comes to policy. that s the differentiation. it s important to speak out. i congratulation jo
have been done, and they wanted to get that out in the open as well. well, you got some answers, which a lot of people didn t. thank you. congresswoman katie hill, thank you. thank you. with me are david gerg ben, carl bernstein, gloria borger, kirsten powers and santorum. gloria, let me start with you. i guess i ll run through with everybody. what are the headlines? the headline comes from the congresswoman s question, obviously. i mean, you know, what michael cohen described today was an oval office crime. and with cohen saying that the president called him and said look, i want to make sure that you say that i wasn t knowledgeable about these payoffs. then we saw the check, which was incontrovertible evidence signed by donald trump, $35,000. i mean, that check is very meaningful. and, you know, there are a lot of things that strike me. the roger stone apparently calling to talk about wikileaks, but one other thing that we also
grandiose. and that s not what he s getting. he is, however, getting funding for some border security, which is something democrats have said they care about. there s also additional funding in there for technology, to help, you know, at the border, to help secure the border. and what the democrats got in return for that is a reduced number of beds for i.c.e.. senator santorum, can the president continue to blame democrats for not getting full funding for the wall, given that this deal was also signed off by republicans, as well? well, i mean, it s signed off by republicans in a compromise. obviously, it s a compromise, since he s been very public, he doesn t like anything that he should have done better. the republicans should have done better. you know, this is a president who s not shy about blaming democrats and calling out republicans for being weak and not standing with him as tough as he likes. so, you know, the president is going to chart his own path for his own political
