peddled false claims of fraud even though he was told by his closest aides repeatedly, mr. president, you lost the election. daniela diaz is live on capitol hill daniela, do we know what bill steppian expects to say? reporter: we do not. he is testifying under subpoena. super notable he is appearing before the committee, and the second hearing that will take place later today starts at 10:00 a.m. we do also know was liz cheney said at the first primetime hearing that took place last week that this hearing will revolve around trump s effort to convince huge portions of the u.s. population that fraud had stolen the election from him despite the fact that numerous aides told him he lost the election. aides also told us that this hearing would show how trump s team pursued legal challenges in court and lost those cases and that trump chose to ignore the will of the courts and continued to try to overturn the election anyway. we are also planning to hear from chris stirewalt. he
being weighed down by many weaknesses. at the heart of his vulnerability is of course his age. nearly half of democrats say it is their biggest concern and 74% of voters don t think he is sharp enough. if you are a liberal perhaps most worrisome of all an eye opening 67% of democrats prefer another candidate. let me reiterate. two-thirds of his own party want someone else to run. the issue is not just his age. nearly 60% of americans believe that biden has made the economy worse. in a moment james carville joins me to react to that but first here is a taste of how some democrats are spinning today. let s not forget donald trump has three fewer candles on his birthday cake than joe biden. sure. he also has 91 more criminal counts on his record than joe biden. if a year from now these numbers are the same, and this were a referendum, he would be in deep, deep trouble. he would not win that. joe biden has an incredible record to run on. i ll note this poll has a margin
nearly 60% of americans believe that biden has made the economy worse. in a minute, james carville joins me to react to all of that. first, here s another case of how some democrats are spinning today. let s not forget, donald trump has three fewer candles on his birthday cake than joe biden. he also has 91 more criminal counts on his record than joe biden. if, a year from now, these numbers are the same, and this were a referendum, he would be in deep trouble, he would not when that. joe biden has incredible record to run. i will note that this poll has a margin of error of 6% when you are talking about democrats. if jim messina says we are bed-wetters, invest in pampers and depends. because a lot of people are terrified that joe biden is in real trouble. joining me now is former league strategist for bill clinton s 1992 presidential campaign. and the coast co-host of politics war room. james carville himself. james, thank you for being here. these polls seem to ge
important steps in the right direction and would be the most significant gun safety legislation to pass congress in decades. now, he continued to say that with bipartisan support from both sides, that this should get passed quickly from congress, and then end up on his desk. the sooner that happens, the sooner that he said we can use these measures to save lives. now, of course, this is a proposal and not yet legislative texts. let s be clear about that. it could take some time to get down the pipeline. and we note that this urgency, though, that we heard from biden s statement, it reflects his mentality for the last few weeks especially responding to the back to back mass major shootings where he is urging congress to do something, and now it falls short of exactly what he called for. really we heard laura talk about it. he wanted enhanced background checks. he wanted congress to pass an assault weapons ban. and if they couldn t pass it, at least raise the wage age from 18 to 21 as we
