for that. this is a disaster for the republican party. but they had it coming. there is only about six spines in the whole party, and trump must have a medical license because he obviously performed a spine x to me on most of the republicans in congress. what s the matter was standing up for america, no matter who says we ought to get rid of the constitution? and i think the republicans are in deep, deep trouble. eventually, they are going to reject trump, and i think their voters, because they have all the primaries throughout, i think trump s 40% is going to win him a lot of votes in the primary. unless he continues to self destruct. he s moving awfully fast in that direction, faster than expected. building on that, president biden seems to be rising. he s earning praise from longtime trump allies. new gingrich says the hostility is blinding them to just how effective biden has been. adding, we dislike biden so much, we patchouli focus on his
conservative media. i think gingrich is trying to get a wake up call. just one small disagreement with governor dean, i don t think anybody should be rooting for donald trump during his primary. i think he is a unique danger, and frankly, if he loses the primary, i think he could be an ally to democrats by just being a complete wrecking ball and hurting whoever it is that beats him. i would rather just get rid of him. i would rather him just lose once and for all. the. in terms of the gingrich situation, it gets even better, howard. he compares him to eisenhower and reagan who both prefer to implemented. a republican comparing a seeing him credit president to reagan? is this a high compliment? is gingrich baiting biden? for a long time, i was very surprised he said that. i do think biden has been underestimated. his record is extraordinary, what he s done.

the positive spirit of the american right it has all been deadly negative. the negative campaigning we have seen down here, rachel, turn on tv down here is to hear 90% nastiness it is a pooh storm and nobody, as i said, is going to walk away clean. it chris, in terms of that effort to try to connect emotionally with the electorate, obviously, people are trying to connect on anger, people are trying to connect on resentment, but do you see in the newt gingrich candidacy, do you see any effort to try to go for that heart that you are talking about? is gingrich making a play for that to try to say i want to be the hopeful conservative sneer are you seeing pure negative from him? yeah unfortunately, it set it up really the way you almost capture it in the movies, it has become ethnic, going after the jewish vote, the catholic vote, going after, as we saw last week, i think the racial vote earthquake the anti-black vote, with all that talk of food stamps. it has been a nasty, cheap-shot
with a double-digit lead over newt gingrich. part of his advantage comes from early voter who is went his way more than 50% of the time. here s a reaction from gingrich, just a short time ago. mr. speaker, do you still see a path to the nomination? of course. how? unify the conservatives, you win the delegates, and then you have the nomination. freshman florida senator marco rubio is a very popular man these days. he s been mentioned as a possible vice presidential choice for whomever comes out on top. but he says, no way. my answer hasn t changed on that. i ve answered it repeatedly. the fact is, i m focused on my job here in the senate. i ll do anything the nominee wants me to do in terms of getting elected. i don t think that s going to be vice president. i don t think i m going to be the vice presidential nominee. rubio, who was speaking with our soledad o brien, also talked about why he hasn t endorsed everyone. i have relationships with two of the four c
