Democrats face their own that portend trouble in the 2018 mid-terms. >> thanks, doug. >> shannon: it never stops. the next thing is always coming. another big story today speaking of 2020. the vice president pushing back hard against an absurd report of the "new york times" about a 2020 shadow campaign. ue psorias. ...isnt it time to let the real you shine through? maybe its time for otezla (apremilast). otezla is not an injection or a cream. its a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. ...

Concerned about polls are cok congress. you saw 10% approval ratings. theyre the ones on the ballot next year. and you were talking about health care in the previous segment. if they dont figure out how to govern, the american people are going to take republican leadership from the driver seat to the backseat. so when you look at these numbers, im not really that concerned about the poll numbers for donald trump. hes not on the ballot for another three years. so its not of concern to me. congres...

Particularly around house minority leader nancy pelosi. the news agency surveyed 20 democratic candidates for the house in the 2018 mid-terms to see if they win will they vote for her as party leader. only one of 20 said theyd vote for her, one said no. 18 democrats out of 20 would not answer whether they would vote for nancy pelosi. to be sure, republican leaders like paul ryan and mitch mcconnell are not particularly popular around the country, but theres particular disdain among pelosi among ...

Health care was supposed to be the topic and the presidents agenda. his promise to repeal and replace obamacare. the russian investigation just intruded as it has for months and with new developments come in new disclosures involving don junior, his eldest son with the russian lawyer. so its been very difficult for the president to stay on message and he has at times taken the bait. he has diverted himself and his white house such as focusing on the russian investigation and this comes at a high...

Mid-terms, i think it will be hard case to the voters that with eight years to come up with a replacement, they havent been able to do it, lets pass repeal and we just need to give them a little more time, i dont think that thats believable to a lot of people and it could throw the market which is are already in turmoil into even greater uncertainty. >> the insurance industry agrees with you on that. so the health care scenario is still up in the air but the president did get a couple of victori...
