this these three deep red states vote to expand coverage for low income residents, does it a referendum on republican for americans as how they see health care. reflection of where americans are now on health care. with the implementation of affordable care act and obama. we ve seen state across state. voters really like the health care law. want to be protect. want all of the citizens in their state to be protected. these ballot initiatives are reflection of where americans are on health care. in that sense, it is a referendum on republicans in congress and the president really trying to deal a death nail to the affordable care act. it s not going to work.
in the polls, and she may lose. in the morning when she s brushing her teeth, she needs to like the person she sees. heitkamp is down 12 points in the most recent poll to her republican challenger. after yesterday s announcement, ad buys were cancelled. perhaps probably a sign they believe that her no vote is a death nail for her candidacy. back with me joel heitkamp. good to see your face. good to be back with you. she s going to vote no. what s been the response in the last 24 hours since the news was announced? i do a regional talk show. heard all over the state. i was kind of shocked. i thought when i went into work today i was going to take a butt whooping but i didn t get there. it was about three to one of people that supported her choice and i have a very conservative
yesterday something remarkable happening in missouri. a very conservative state, pro-trump state, pro-republican state. you actually had people coming out in a referendum, and dealing a blow to the right to work forces who were really buoyed by a supreme court decision seen as a death nail for unions. yesterday, i ve got to say. that union in missouri, one of the biggest wins in a very long time and, again, you just have to believe. once again. that s the electorate sort of tugging and pulling back. oh, okay. supreme court s going to take us too far to the right, we re going to pull this country back to the center. pretty remarkable what we see in, you know every time americans go to the voting booth. amazing to watch overnight, and the people are having a chance to speak. willie geist, the president is certainly taking this one in ohio personally. he s declared victory. sent out a tweet last night.
lawmakers to pass either one of these two immigration bills. there was supposed to be, in front of the house this week. the tune changed substantially. although republicans i talk to say that tweet and the ones like it yesterday may not be the death nail for this bill. so much as the fact republicans just don t have the votes. they just don t have agreement among themselves about what they really want. you know, the rule here is, when you have the votes, you take the vote. the fact that republicans have kicked this bill into next week suggests they don t know what they alone can agree with. what we have seen in the last few hours before congress left town for the week were republicans trying to lean in to the president s argument and you started to hear lawmakers here on the republican side make the same argument. this is about democrats. here s steve scalise, whip of the house. if you re interested in solving this problem, there is a bill for you to vote yes on. the fact that democr
diplomatic approach saying we could do this with the europeans, but more realistic elements are saying if america is out, this isn t going to work. if america is out, they want to come down on us like a ton of bricks. they want to freeze us out of the financial system. they want to stop iran from selling this oil. so how is this deal going to work anyway? so i think it s going to be the death nail if america comes out of this deal. there might be some bargaining and trading and iran will see if they can create a wedge between the europeans and the americans, but it s doubtful that they they ll get anywhere. if america decides that s it, this thing is probably going to go down in flames. bobby, does iran have the power to do that if we pull out? i mean, their economy is crippled. yeah. what can they really do? it s going to be very hashd for the iranians. the economy is crippled. people are unhappy. we ve seen low intensity protests in iran, almost consistently. it s going to be
