independents only 36% want to see biden on the ticket. 58% say they want to see someone else. dana: if that s not enough of a warning sign, the same poll shows biden running six percentage points behind trump. five behind desantis. those kind of numbers have republicans pointing to a big problem for democrats. no president has ever had these kind of numbers and won in a second term. if i am the democratic i would be in a panic. those are dismal numbers, not just bad, they re dismal. it really shows that even democrats don t believe he has what it takes to go to a second term. bill: mark meredith leads a new hour live at the white house with more on this, if there is much reaction. good morning. there is reaction. good morning to you. the next presidential election is still 547 days away. but as you were just talking about with dana the latest polling shows the president has an uphill battle ahead of him including with his own party. the poll took a look at the preside
donald trump. then, new ethics questions about supreme court justice, clarence thomas. and a billionaire donor. and, with just one week until title 42 inspires, a look at the humanitarian crisis at the southern border as the 11th hour gets underway on this thursday night. i m simone in for stephanie ruhle. tonight, this brand-new reporting that special counsel, jack smith, is ramping up efforts to find out former president trump hid classified documents. the new york times writes, prosecutors have, quote, obtained the confidential cooperation of a person who has worked for trump at mar-a-lago. the report continues, quote, the existence of an insider witness, whose identity has not been disclosed could be a significant step in the investigation. this news comes just hours after the justice department scored a critical win in its prosecution of the january 6th attack. today, for members of the proud boys, including the group s leader enrique tarrio were convicted of seditious
are you guys going to interject here or do i get to speak now? the town hall is for the president to speak to the voters of new hampshire, not for this back and forth with the media. that s number one. number two, with respect to ukraine, i totally disagree. he did not say he was going to give over ukraine the way you intimate, van. he did not say van, what he said was is that he would actually look for a solution to end it quickly. he put 24 hours on it. what joe biden has done has been a disaster because initially with ukraine, joe biden wanted to give vladimir zelenskyy a ride out of dodge. it wasn t until people in moscow and ukraine here in the united states said this invasion is wrong and joe biden reversed course. i m trying to respond to everything coming up on the table. lastly, we spent 22, 23 minutes talking about january 6th. we could have been talking about a whole lot of other issues. but let me are clear. what was said in this town hall about national g
maybe none of the above. i m michael smerconish in philadelphia. we have eight months to go before the first presidential ballot of 2024 is cast. the conventional wisdom is we re headed for a rematch of 2020, this despite concerns that one candidate is too old and the other is morally unfit. which might explain why recent polls have revealed that americans don t want this rematch and there s dissatisfaction with both candidates. last month an nbc poll found that 70% of respondents said biden shouldn t run and 60% said trump shouldn t run. what are the odds that when all is said and done, the democrats nominate someone other than joe biden and republicans select a candidate different than donald trump? back on april 16th i put a polling question to my radio audience asking them if they agreed with this statement, neither biden nor trump will be the nominee. more than 25% of 20,000 plus who voted agree with that statement. maybe my listeners are on to something. this week emmy
platforming and publishing, said liar, the problem is us. that, ladies and gentlemen, is textbook gas lighting. i say this with sadness, affection, awe and a little bit of envy. we live in a world in which your immediate family, your child s immediate circle of teachers, coaches, friends, friends parents, your neighbors, loved ones and social circle doesn t include people who voted for different people than you voted for, than you live in the only silo i m aware of. this is annerson s cooper defense of cnn s campaign style event earlier in the week. maybe you haven t been paying attention to him since he left off and enjoying not hearing from him, saying it can t happen again, some investigation is going to stop him. it hasn t so far. so if last night showed anything, showed it can happen again. it is happening again. he hasn t changed. and he is running hard. you have every right to be outrame and angry and never watch this network again gut do you think stay nurg silo an
