him in november? >> if my choice is joe biden and donald trump, every single day of the week, yes, i will support donald trump. i have from the very beginning. he has been someone that i have supported since 2016 because i recognize that he didn't think he was better than anybody else in this country. he wanted to go run for this office so he could serve the people here and fight for them every single day. >> joining us now, msnbc's political analyst brendan buck. he was communications strategy and former aide to house speakers ryan and speaker boehner. you know i'm going to ask a congress question, but what we just watched, i asked nikki haley, would you vote for someone convicted of a crime, and the fact that kristi noem's answer is yes, what does that tell you? >> it's not surprising at all. four years ago, certainly eight years ago, there was a large faction of the republican party, including kristi noem, who thought, let's get through this moment and we'll figure out what
the funding bill that passes we can. >> some say well we have to deal with our border first game of the ukrainian russian border is our border. it is the border between depraved autocracy and freedom loving people seeking our democratic way of life. do we have a stake in that outcome? yes. undeniably yes. >> kayleigh: democrats celebrated the presence of the aide to bill this. [cheers and applause] speak out the house be in order. >> changing while waving small ukrainian flags on the house floor. brandon judd is very is telling fox news, "we are beyond disappointed that the white house would give aid to secure the border but nothing to allowe border patrol to secure the safety of the united states. there is nothing more
who will reportedly be the first witness called by the prosecution? >> let's talk about the trial this weekend. >> all weekend long. twitter was going wild. also ahead, it appears ukraine will finally get the critical funding it needs after the house passed a package of foreign aid bills which includes more military support for israel, as well. the bill now heads to the senate despite efforts by marjorie taylor greene, who got called out, yes, by the new york post. kind of sums it up. >> it does. good morning. it is monday, april 22nd. welcome back the "morning joe." former aide to the bush state department and white house, elise jordan. from the american presidency at vanderbilt university, historian jon meacham. and financial editor at "the financial times," ed luce is with us. >> we'll get to the lead story in one moment, which are opening statements in donald trump's
what this is going to look like and what his team has been preparing for is their opening statement, which is going to be pretty short, pretty blunt, but they are trying to also charm and persuade these jurors just like the prosecution is trump for his part. his life is about to change when you walked that courtroom this morning for the next six weeks, we don't know what the outcome of this is going to be, what we do know that for the next six to eight weeks, potentially, he is going to be someone who sits in a courtroom who doesn't have a chance to respond in real-time in those moments as he is watching people who were incredibly close to him get up on that witness stand and say things that he disagrees with, that he contradicts, and things that are incredibly personal to have these allegations and these are people like hope hicks, his former top aide, and one of his closest confidants, michael cohen, his former attorney, david, who we may hear from today is going to be fascinating. this is someone that trump is known for decades. she used to publish a magazine called trump's style, and he may be getting on the stand to talk about trump's direct involvement in this agreement. >> he could be a critical witness in all of this. david,

really helps out because more than anything it replenishes the stock of missiles they fired because a lot of those muscles that were used with the aero system that's a joint u.s./israeli program for you to get the missiles and bring them online they had to use a lot of those. that attack that came in just this past week was over 300 drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles. that was the largest attack and a one time by any nation on earth against israel. it's pretty massive they were able to fight it off well. they need to refit, rearm it's good the aide came through to israel but it's going to pay off in the future. eric: reuse a price iran launched so many missiles against israel they were successfully, basically un- rebuffed? >> i think everybody was a little bit surprised it's a pretty massive attack. it was what i call a very complex attack. when it mean by that is you have drones come in at verse two. you have your cruise missiles followed by ballistic missiles. the thing that got everyone's
coming, they can probably release more of their dwindling stocks, but i would imagine we'll have an immediate effect on the battlefield. & you've been keeping you in touch with a president zelenskyy is top aide. >> what's what is the conversation been like inside zelensky's inner circle? >> they've been super focused on exactly what's going on and that you've been reporting on in the house of representatives . they watch it very carefully they're very pleased. of course, that this has finally been resolved. as mr. klitschko just said, that bipartisan support, which they've always tried to keep, was there the overwhelmingly by support. that's what they need to be able to keep going on this fight. >> i mean, these billions of dollars we're talking about $60 billion to ukraine the expectation shouldn't be that it would end the war, right? but is there a feeling that ukraine would still have to come back to the us for more help and given how difficult it
thought i was doing anything illegal. >> i did an awful, awful lot that was wrong. >> the jury acquitted edwards on one charge and split on the other five in. the justice department to ultimately dropped the case. >> well, the election interference and it's got to stop. it's a third world country. >> trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal payments made to hide an alleged affair with an adult film star and influence the 26th seen election, trump denies the affair and has pleaded not guilty, but trump's former attorney, michael cohen, swore under oath that he made the payments in order to affect the outcome of the election cohen though, was convicted of perjury in a separate case. the edwards case had its own star witness, a close aide to the former senator who testified to helping edwards keep that a fair secret, but prosecutors do not prove their claim. the cover-up was about the election. the woman with whom edwards had the affair, real hunter told cnn, edwards did
this on the floor we'll see if that occurs again it it speaks to just how low the republican congressional leadership has gone in terms of losing control of their own caucus.& if democrats do have to come to his, to his aide, i don't think it's going to be for free. i think it's gonna be for some kind of power-sharing or something that again, will benefit the country because democrats are always going to do what's in the best interests of america. i think it's important, hats off again to speaker johnson for showing true leadership in the face of potential ouster by the vocal minority in the house. i think this is an opportunity for americans to sit back and say, thank goodness, congress worked on a bipartisan fashion. we sent a strong message to russia to china, to iran, the proxies in any of these other nations that are want to put a threat to democracy. and i think everyone should call their member of congress that voted for this and tell them, thank you. >> we live a couple of moments left, but alice, does that mean that you think there's some fatigue that setting in, in the
