So much. The news continues right here on cnn its thursday, march 7, right now on cnn this morning, joe biden, just hours from delivering a state of the Union Address that could help propel him to a second term or possibly put his Reelection Campaign in jeopardy. Plus donald trump challenging the president to a debate and signaling his second term in the white house could be even more chaotic and district corruptive than the first and alabamas governor signing an ivf protection bill into law.

tonight on all in. a ■ç i know i m not a young man. to state the obvious. about last night through the eyes of the undecided. i think this debate was bad for our country. we are in a very difficult spot as a nation. tonight, how gettable voters view the debate, and what it means to the x essential threat of a trump presidency. i would vote for biden even if he was dead. and i m a republican. plus, as barack obama enters the conversation, the historical precedent and practical reality of picking a candidate in the convention. and today s radical opinion from the supreme court as we finally get word, a decision on trump s immunity for insurrection is finally up next. all in starts right now. good evening from new york, i m chris hayes. the first thing to keep ■çin mi in the aftermath of last night s presidential debate is that if you are watching this program right now, you are almost certainly not the person whose opinion about it is the most important. at
class. the president behaves in a way that i would never want my children to behave or repeat. so this question of how much character matters and his character matters is going to be the defining issue of 2020 versus the condition of the country. and along with that, do his supporters who come out who have some kind of tolerance for this at whatever level that is, are they dwor dwarfed in numbers. it was so telling it was on teleprompter. that means somebody wrote it. and usually the president i think doesn t write his teleprompter speeches. and that means, as john said, it s a campaign strategy. they re not going to talk about the economy. he s going to talk about these incendiary issues that, you know, bring up these chants about racial tension. and so he thinks that that s a more winning strategy than the economy.
the reality is he still is not getting above 50%. he s the first president who is never above 50% in the first team. even though the economy is great. that comes down to his own behavior and crazy conduct. his crazy tweets. if he would stop tweeting and shut up and just limit himself to teleprompter speeches. his poll numbers would go up ten points. he can t handle that psychologically. he needs to vent on the world every day. even though the picture he presents to the public is of somebody who is not in his right mind. which is why his poll numbers are well below where they should be given the economy. if he sat there and didn t say anything until the election he probably would poll better and do better in the election. rather than venting because these are your words,
let s remember this is after pretty conclusive evidence that he obstructed justice and after an accusation he was guilty of rain and none of it hinders him. it basically comes down to as james car asylville used to say the economy, stupid. the economy is kind of lifting up all boats including donald trump s poll numbers. he s clearly benefitting from that. the reality is he still is not getting above 50%. he s the first president who is never above 50% in the first team even though the economy is great. that comes down to his own behavior and crazy conduct. his crazy tweets. if he would stop tweeting and if he would just shut up and just limit himself to teleprompter speeches, his poll numbers would go up ten points. but he couldn t handle that psychologically. he needs the psychological release on venting on the word and doing it every single day
