Candidates highly reluctant to criticize trump. because they know that they are going to have to take up his mantle if they win the nomination. of course, there is a few exceptions like chris christie who still is pretty low in the polls. but the worry there is that it is not just the voting base, but also the structures in washington d.c., the conservative think tank that usually helps staff up another administration. they are already drowned in their list of officials who would go in. and they...

Therefore, the leaders zip their mouth. >> yeah. of course, any effort to expunge the impeachments from the congress record, though, even if they were to be technically successful, they still happened. not leaving the history books, reverend sharpton. >> right. >> kevin mccarthy is a microcosm, to jonathan martins point there, about the republican partys relationship with donald trump. the denouncement happened on january 6th in the hours that followed. it wasnt just that he went to mar-a-lago a...

This push -- and there are several of them, mainly in the democratic socialist wing of the party -- they its all about expanding democracy. do you think thats true, or is it about expanding their voting base? >> yeah. well, good morning, and thanks again for having me on. i think, you know, when i was 16, i was politically active, but at the same time i was also, you know, participating in sports and hanging out with my friends with the judgment of a 16-year-old kid. it doesnt make sense to expa...

Said there is just a 30% chunk of the republican party that wont move and see any investigation as an actual witch hint against the former president. so, no, this does not present new information. a lot of republican base voters see him -- already know that he is under these indictments, that he faces questions over keeping very sensitive national security documents. and they dont seem to care. they are still interested in voting for him. so unless there is a new bombshell that is even bigger th...

Biden current president, then vice president. it is really a lie. schiff is effective because he drives the narrative, wears his badge of honor for his voting base and not talking to any one of us on the couch or undecided americans. hes talking about his next senate run or first senate run and talking about not just getting trump out of office but all republicans. the democrats are willing to lie, cheat and steal to get wherever and adam schiff and all of them followed this line after they were...

Down, as it was today, and there is no further acts that could be taken by the court against mr. rodriguez. he decided to have an outburst in which he declared that trump was the winner of the 2020 election. >> how worried are you that in 2024, somebody will be elected who will pardon daniel rodriguez? donald trump is talking about pardons. other candidates, other republican candidates have talked about their open-mindedness to it. >> first of all, i think the language in and of itself regardles...

Justice department instead of trump himself. >> attorney general merrick garland stop hiding behind the special counsel and stand before the american people and explain why this indictment went forward. >> reporter: trying to woo trumps loyal voting base, gop contenders, including senator tim scott, former us ambassador nikki haley and florida governor ron desantis are so far unwilling to publicly condemn the former president. >> our founding fathers would have absolutely predicted the weaponiza...

But, you know, at some point you want to tell a prosecutor, its time to stop investigating and time to charge. r, itsabout the fani willis is hag this investigations with her prosecutors. >> does the time mean anything to you, joe? were hearing something might happen with jack smith and coming weeks, were hearing that fani willis is looking at july or early august. we saw in the manhattan and indictments, thats not even going to be in court for many, many months. this is all going to play out in...

The former president for the same reasons nikki haley is doing that as well and a number of the other candidates. they want to win that voting base that weve seen continue to coalesce around the former president and sticking with him. its also why you see trump rising in those polls. i know we have to treat those polls with a grain of salt because theyre so far out from the actual primary, but thats why. they want those voters. they arent willing to strike this totally different lane to get them...

Now in the republican primary, they kind of flipped and reversed the argument. were not seeing it break through in terms of republican voters hold donald trump quote/unquote accountable or flee him in polling but we are seeing a republican base that is more hardened against the federal government and using that language as a means to rile up their voting base. so it is having a effect politically on the messaging. i dont think it is having a support effect on donald trump. it is not causing him ...
