good day. i m chris jansing live at msnbc headquarters in new york city. the humanitarian crisis on the border. it is the challenge that americans say they want solved more than any other problem. and now president biden is making his most dramatic move yet to deal with illegal immigration. will today s executive action come too late to reverse the political damage that has been years in the making? plus details about the president s son, including claims he was smoking crack every 15 minutes emerging on day one of the federal trial. the defense is using the opening statement to argue that hunter biden was in deep denial and may not have considered himself a drug addict. outside the courtroom, a dramatic altercation between hunter biden s wife and a former trump white house aide. a group of senate republicans refusing to do their jobs and using baseless conspiracy theories around donald trump s conviction as an excuse. how could that impact what has been one of the least pr
absolutely. do the republicans have to come to the table to solve the fundamental issues of why people are streaming across the border? they must. i think we can all agree by the time someone packed their bags and traveled thousands of miles to the southern border, that is not american immigration policy. that s a broken system. let me go to the key political question that absolutely is here when we re looking at june and an election year, which is there are warning signs flashing, trump has been gaining with latino voters, does this help or hurt joe biden? so, chris, i m glad you asked that question. we have been scratching our heads trying to figure out where this mass defection is, because it has not showed up in any of the polling we have conducted. we surveyed over 2,000 latino voters in key battleground states and in those key battleground states, trump was actually losing to joe biden 39 to 59. so very well within joe biden s margin of error of victory last
