endangering our democracy. plus, crickets from the republican field who should want to defeat donald trump. and fox news fires up the outrage machine over a human crisis invented by trump republicans. you can t survive with the money one makes even to have food. one day, one day we will be able to see each other again. when all in starts, right now. good evening from new york. i m chris hayes. last night, let s talk about last night. last night at this time, the man that led the insurrection against our democracy was spewing vile nonsense on another network. of course, i was here hosting this very television show, hopefully with many of you watching. i did not see the whole thing play out live. but i ve seen enough. i ve seen enough to have to have the same visceral reaction as many others. that it was disgraceful, despicable, gross. if you had that reaction as well, i will just say i think that is the correct response. i don t think you really need to second gues
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
he s in custody. gary, what have we learned? reporter: just about ten minutes ago, a police officer here in cobb county, georgia, said the alleged gunman is under arrest. this gated community behind me in smyrna, georgia, northwest of the shootings, waterford place, there are police cars behind the gates. we were following them as we arrived. about five minutes down the road we saw the police cars zooming by. we followed them here, a police officer was sitting outside here. i asked him what was going on, he told me we have apprehended the suspect alive, no shootout, it appears he surrendered peacefully. there were about 100 police officers and s.w.a.t. vehicles next to the park where the atlanta braves play baseball. they re on the road tonight. the boundary, there are shops, restaurants and theaters next to the stadium. full of s.w.a.t. vehicles and police officers looking for the suspect. earlier in the day, the car believed this man hijacked was found in a parking lot in
good evening, before we begin tonight s broadcast, i want to say something about what we witnessed at last night s town hall. many of you have expressed deep anger and disappointment, many of you are upset that someone who attempted to destroy our democracy was invited to sit on the stage in front of a crowd of republican voters to answer questions. and predictably, continue to spew lie after lie after lie. i get it. it was disturbing. it was disturbing to see him here that person referred to black law enforcement officer as a thug. an adjective used many times to describe blackmon. and called kaitlan collins the moderator, nasty. which is what he calls any woman who stands up to him. it was disturbing. to hear him speak so highly of qanon conspirators and insurrectionists who assaulted police officers and our democracy on january 6th. it was awful to hear him spread ridiculous lies about the election. it was certainly disturbing to hear that audience, young and old, our fe
for president, you expect them to go out, shake hands and kiss some babies and most of all get on the debate stage. when it comes to joe biden who just told us to watch him, democrat party saying no debates for you. the sitting president of the united states of america is a democrat. a democrat that would like to run for reelection so much so that he has declared a reelection campaign. in that case, the democratic national committee will not facilitate a primary process. there will be no debate stage for bobby kennedy, marianne williams or anyone else. they re not going to set up a primary process for debates for someone to challenge the head of the democratic party. jesse: in other words, joe is running so voters should be thankful and not ask questions. 19% of democrats are already siding with his primary opponent, robert f. kennedy jr.. he s pulling the same numbers in the polls as desantis. he s nothing to sneeze at. if anybody deserves to debate joe, it s him. i th
