Frankly if someone had told you two months ago before joe biden announced that he would be ahead of donald trump not just nationally by 8-9 points but in texas and north carolina whereio the most recent polls had him ahead, it almost boggles the mind. but still if someone told you that, they would go, wow. hes obviously done something right. and yet, i will concede the way hes going about this campaign does leave something to be desired. i do not fault him for not showing up in iowa for his gran...

Moon to mars mission. and moon not part of mars. >> okay, mark this on the calendar. please. ill cut him some slack. i knew what he meant. he didnt mean it was an actual part of the mars. he is saying it falls under the same umbrella. this is my interpretation. we should be going to the moon but set our sights higher and go to mars. it does sound contradictory. the head of nasa jim bridenstein said in washington the very first space policy directive of the president said were going to go back to...

Official statement i understand. i get what youre saying. but i stand by what i say. i think i get what i meant. not that the moon was like attached to mars. its not the same thing. we should just set our sights beyond the moon and so ill leave it at that. ill cut him some slack on that. >> not said he wanted to go to the moon. would you take the trip? >> yes. >> do you know how long it would take? >> its 93 million miles from the sun. two, days, three days. >> to go 94 million miles. >> no, tha...
