announcer: victory is coming at the kenneth copeland sacramento victory campaign, may 31st through june 2nd at the sacramento convention center. kenneth: god is a god of joy. the joy of the lord is our strength. female: i would definitely come to hear kenneth copeland live. it s much more personable, and i m telling you, it will really ignite your faith. announcer: join us for the kenneth copeland sacramento victory campaign, may 31st through june 2nd at the sacramento convention center. admission is free. register at kcm.org/sacramento. martha: breaking tonight, if there was ever any doubt about how president trump felt about the iran deal, that was laid to rest today. a stunning and really very forceful statement of the president today essentially saying the deal is done. he laid it out in no uncertain
he was trailing and then it looked like he picked up a bit of momentum, your thoughts? i think the west virginia race is an incredibly interesting one for the country as a whole but i m hopeful that patrick morrisey, the two-time attorney general of west virginia wins. i think you will be the best candidate in a general election. however, if morrisey loses to jenkins, i think we have a terrific chance if either of those of the nominees to beat the incumbent democrat senator. the president won that state overwhelmingly by about 34 points. it is a place that donald trump can really help us defeat an incumbent u.s. senator that we need to be. it is going to be a long road if blankenship unfortunately wins that race. martha: will have a lot to talk about in either case there when we get some more information on that. capri, let me go to you. let s talk ohio, where you watching there? a number of things.
probe from fervor. a guy like don blankenship, while he may give the vapors and anyone here in washington, he s got a real shot at winning the nomination now in west virginia. martha: chris? when the plane virginians are talking about getting the vapors you know that they ve been spending too much time they ve been spending too much time with the west virginians. i think charles is 150% right. i think that not just in west virginia, but in indiana there is a mold here to whatever degree that the president wants to stop this, he was the accelerant for this fire and telling republicans that they can t have what they want after trump demonstrated that they could, it was possible to pick with a told you not to and still win anyway. it s pretty hard then to turn around and say stop here. martha: we know that obviously mitch mcconnell is no big fan of don blankenship and this has been a really fascinating debate to watch
between these two. they ve been sniping at each other throughout the whole course of this thing. word is that mitch mcconnell and president trump spoke about this and president trump decided to come right out and say do not vote for don blankenship, he cannot win. but he could win tonight potentially. we will see. he could. and if he does it s because he s trying to say that he is trumpier dan trump. if like a ship pulls this out i think it will show that at least right now with the republican base, republican voters are more loyal to trump-ism then they are to trump. that s in it really interesting dynamic. the president will be 0 for 2 between this race and alabama and west virginia. compare that to the democrats in the west virginia congressional seat to replace jenkins where you ve got this really interesting democrat, richard, who if he pulls it off the night running as a populist democrat,
