Haystack. Did the issue of adoption, its near and dear to my heart because i have two adopt edisons. Did that come up . Yes. In the meeting . Like i said, it was the primary thing we had spoken about in the meeting. You know, thats not the premise that got them in the room, and then they started it was essentially a baitandswitch to talk about that, and everyone has basically said that in testimony already.

This wasnt relevant to us, and it wasnt something we were going to do anything with. Except thats not what the president said over the weekend. Trump jr.

His comments were aimed directly at president bill clinton, amid the Monica Lewinsky scandal. And if these comments prove anything, its that hypocrisy in politics is alive and well.

Kasie, i dont know what mike pence is thinking when he stares adoringly at the speak as the president speaks, but i wonder if any of that is going through his head . Reporter lets just say that some of the behavior that we have, has been alleged against this president , is not necessarily anything that the mike pence that i have covered for many years would have ever approved of.

Former GOP representative Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezinski interview newsmakers, politicians and pundits about the issues of the day. Disapprove. The numbers are shifting for the president . Talked about it for a long time. A bit of narrow casting. But this is about as narrow casting as it gets. Willie, all i can say for donald trump and republicans who are hoping, like a special election in ohio tonight, the republicans hoping that hes somehow going to get them over the finish line, even in strongly republican districts lie this ohio 12. They better hope that their small slice of the electorate comes out, because, i mean, donald trump is sacrificing just about every other group in america for this one group of white, noncollege educated voters that, again, just there just arent enough to get him over the top or to get his candidates over the top in
Dan oconnor and state senator Troy Balderson are neck in in this case neck in a district donald trump won by 11 points. A district that has been red since 1939. Aside from a twoyear blip in the 80s.
