Resupporters, they are trump supporters, they buy into this. after the last 24 hours they keep telling us it doesnt matter what hes done with whom, how he paid them off because of north korea, because of the stock market, because of the tax cuts, because of the supreme court. and they will never abandon him. how important is it to get the numbers straight on who is still with him and who is now starting to waiver? >> well, its very important. i do think that the core base for donald trump remain...

They take back at least the house, youll see more talk on what that means. >> ill just say, so many issues on -- this is clearly, even though the republican number here is the interesting number. 19% of americans think it is acceptable. i find it fascinating because that 19% prior to donald trump four years ago, it would have been 100% republicans who would have said this is unacceptable. 19% of republicans who purely because they think this is a trick question is trying to get them to say somet...

>> its higher than jimmy carter and bill clintons in the second ought of their terms at this point president obama in 2010 was at 47%. president trump is 42%. doesnt leave us that far apart. >> it doesnt. trump started off so low and the rest of these guys started off high and began to fall but with the exception of carter who saw a bounce coming out of camp david in 78, the presidents saw their party losses. >> so what are you thinking? >> the president has a core base and hes trying to keep th...

Throughout the government that try to build human capital and lift people up. they support making it harder for african-americans to vote. this is happening in state after state on the republican side so air voters have correctly figured out who is on their side and who is not and until republicans change that equation, they wont be in good shape. on the question about the voters that republicans are increasingly reliant on, in our nbc/"wall street journal" poll a few weeks ago, 60% of the peopl...

He will need more than that to get re-elected and he loses people on the fringes, people who cannot stomach the racism and the division and the anger and so i think he does pay a price but not with the core base. >> david jolly, longer term, maybe this presidency goes two more years, maybe it goes four more after that, we will see what the election holds. but long-term, the republican party has taken a turn here with donald trump to obviously a different style of politics. the demographic coalit...

Hours before this studio. >> yeah, it was great. if i can piggyback on dana perino for a second -- shut up -- she has a great core base, she can do it. but her point is spot-on. the acosta thing. becausery of my background in wrestling and president trump has a long historic history with wrestling. and acosta likes the chanting. he likes that stuff because you are right. why is he not on the outside. reporters used to do that. but you cant get those reactions and those ratings. so they can see h...

Euphimism "facts develop." thats a nice way of saying their story has shifted several times on this meeting from adoptions to now finally the president admitting this morning the whole design was to get dirt on his opponent and to solicit that information from a foreign source, something thats patently illegal. >> one of the questions, as we look at some of the video here of one of the presidents rallies, he was in ohio, as you know, yesterday. very key special election, one of the first -- excu...

Tax cut that didnt benefit the majority of americans. americans caught on. so they did the bait and switch. this isnt working. now were going to feed 14,000 anti-immigrant ads into the primary to gin up the base because we have nothing else. thats a travesty right now. were creating policy that not only divides but doesnt serve us well. we crafted international law when it came to human rights. we gave it to the u.n. we were at table. by the way were treating these children and families we are r...

The president or the white house feels about this. you know, sarah huckabee sanders will be having her briefing very soon this afternoon. and were going to find out a little bit more. this is someone the president once supported. you though, when she came back for her reboot, that first show he was talking about her ratings. roseanne is a supporter of this president, and he had a core base that watched her. but at issue is what does the president think? and some are cringing to see what his thou...

A moment ago supports all americans. >> so he supports all americans but wont apologize to one in particular. with me now is steve cortez and paul begala. paul, does this wo? >> it has worked so far. apparently with the third of the country. with the republican core base. and i guess that is fine. the question is first off, not just as a political matter, but as a moral matter. that base, by the way, is white christian evangelical. and i am glad you found that tape. the same interview where he a...
