to this family, making a decision about 2024 and his browns was, i was there an election coming up. so i think that speaks to his frame of mind right now. there's a lot of talk about whether their family would be having an intense discussion of his political future. i'm told that really, as far as the family's concern, they're fully supportive of him seeking reelection. i think some of the pressure for him to make a quick decision, a quick announcement, was taken off by the fact that the democrats did better in the midterm auctions and a lot of folks from expected. that being back -- an announcement sometime after the new year just how quickly, i think it still matter for discussion. the president making it clear that this time here on the virgin islands was a little bit of r and r after very busy with a busier coming up in 2023. >> okay, well he deserves it, that's for sure. given the pack that the republicans will be leaving the house from this point going forward, you might have to get his boxing gloves on. all right, mark mentally, thank you so much, enjoy. >> donald trump's tax returns
will be able to say we have good answers to the problems and challenges the country faces. at the same time we are doing things like investigating, how did you make such a mess in afghanistan? what is actually up on the border? why are you failing to gain control of the border? constructive answers to these challenges and problems for the republicans to be offering and if they do, they will hold their own with white house. if the white house keeps going down this path, let's have a fight. we've got our boxing gloves on, let's go at it. the country, as i said, is sick of it. they want the two parties to try to do some constructive things together. >> alicia: at the same time, americans are saying the biden administration, seeing the president to a victory lap over the legislative agenda but at the same time, there's polling showing a very different feeling inside of the united states citizenry. if you take a look at some fox news poll link. let's go first to what voters, how voters feel things have gone

this wrecking ball of destruction that donald trump has been, but we've seen this show before and, look, i think that if he runs, he has a very good chance of being the republican nominee. >> olivia, we just played some of abc news's interview with the former vice president, and he wouldn't go there. do you think that he should be reelected, well, that will be for others to decide. can you beat him? why doesn't he just say it, full throated, assertive answers to these questions about trump, about his own political future, you know him better than anyone on the screen right now. why does he just canikind of go of the way there? >> well, one, look, mike pence is not a confrontational person. he never has been. his demeanor is to sort of just be more quiet. the gentleman approach, which i think when it comes to donald trump, you can't do that. and i think at some point mike pence is going to have to decide whether he's going to fight with the boxing gloves in the ring
