And so much more. First look starts now. Good morning. Im gigi stone woods. Last nights dueling gop events with donald trump hosting a fundraiser during the fox news debate. Megyn kelly wasted no time. Donald trump chose not to attend the debate. What message do you think that sends to the voters of iowa . Let me say im a maniac and everyone on this stage is stupid, fat and ugly and ben, youre a terrible surgeon. Now that we have gotten the donald trump portion out of the way. Its not about donald trump. Hes an entertaining guy, the greatest show on earth. But this campaign is about the greatest country in the world. I kind of miss donald trump, he was a teddy bear to me. I kind of miss him. I wish he was here. Trump speaking at his event three miles away. He didnt hold back. I didnt want to be here. I have to be honest. I wanted to be about five minutes away. You have to stick up for your rights. When youre treated badly, you have to stick up for your rights. You have to do it. I have to go a little step further and say that fox has been extremely nice and the last number of hours, actually, and they have wanted me there and they said, how about now . They called a few minutes ago. How about now, i said hasnt it already started . They wanted me to go and they apologized and Everything Else and they could not but once this started, its for our vets, thats nothing i could do. You know what, i dont know. Is it for me personally a good thing, a bad thing, will i get more votes, less votes, nobody knows. Who the hell knows. But its for our vets and youll like it because we raised over 5 million in one day. Over 5 million. So thats not so bad. Now trump said he himself made a donation of 1 million. And a grand total of 6 million. That that thats according to the cam pach. Theyll distribute the money between 22 different organizations. Also Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee they were the last two gop iowa caucus winners they showed up after their undercard debate. Not to be but ill stand over here so im not photographed with the trump sign. Let me be very clear. Rick santorum, donald trump and i may be competitors in a president ial race, but tonight we are colleagues in unison, standing here for the people who let us breathe every breath of free air we breathe. The veterans of the United States of america. Without you, there is no government. Everyone jockeying for the cabinet posts. With trump not in attendance, ted cruz was the target of many of the attacks. Spearheaded by rand paul and marco rubio. Ted said he was for, you know, nsa reform, but then he told marco rubio, no, no, i voted for the bill. Because im for the government collecting 100 of your cell phone records. I dont think ted can have it both ways. The only budget that ted has voted for is a budget that rand paul sponsored that brags about cutting defense spending. This is the lie that pauls campaign touched upon it. Everyone is a rhino and the truth is, ted, throughout this campaign you have said anything to get votes. As for cruz, he feuded with the moderators. Chris no, your name wasnt mentioned. I think the vote no, sir, sir, i think the vote the question was about its not my question that you get a chance to respond to. Its his answer. You dont get 30 seconds to respond to me. Well, your question was you have disagreed sir, i know you like to argue about the rules but well conduct the debate. I would note that the last four questions have been rand, please attack ted, chris, please attack ted, jeb, please attack ted. Let me say this. It is a debate, sir. No a debate is a policy issue but i will say this. Gosh, if you guys ask one more mean question i may have to leave the stage. Chris wallace holding his own. Who won . Looking at the candidates, at least on social media the most talked about on facebook was ted cruz. He got a whopping 41 of the conversation and of course donald trump was the most discussed on twitter. Keeping with the top polls ted cruz rounded out the top three. And with the caucus just three days away, iowa was the most active state on facebook. New hampshire and South Carolina theyre the first two primary voting states they were third and fourth. And Bernie Sanders home state of vermont, fifth. One person excited about all the events joe biden. We may have been given a gift from the lord in the president ial race here. I dont know who to root for more cruz or whats that guys name . Hes having a fundraiser for veterans tonight im told. Oh, theyre having so much fun. President obama exuding some optimism and addressing the annual House Democratic retreat. Tonight i have an announcement to make about the president ial race.

Just three days before iowa voters caucus, we have a look at the week that was heading into the homestretch. Im a maniac. And everyone on this stage is stupid, fat and ugly. And ben, youre a terrible surgeon. I dont know what you expect me to do you want me to go down with a mop . Ted has never run anything. Hes not endorsed by one United States senator. He works with them every day. If you guys ask one more mean question i may have to leave the stage. Thank you, iowa oh, i wanted to take a break from my fulltime career of writing things on facebook. I could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody and i wouldnt lose any voters. Its like incredible. There will be nothing more in this world that i would like to take on than donald trump. We would beat him and beat him badly. They throw all this stuff at me and im still standing. Hold strong at your caucus, america is looking for a new leader. I kind of miss donald trump. He was a teddy bear to me. We will raise tax, yes we will. I think its important to be careful about the language we use which is why im critical of donald trump. No no no. Heres what it is turning the other cheek. Right here. Youre taking this much more seriously than i am. Whats the big deal . Were mad weve been had and were not so glad quoth the lorex. Kevin is a rilly is in des moines and he joins us by phone. Good morning. Happy friday. What a week its been. And you were at Donald Trumps rally last night. What do you think he gained and lost last night . I think hes missing the debate ahead of the Iowa Caucuses it was the political gamble, but i have to be honest. I talked to his supporters and to them it doesnt matter. How this plays with undecided voters remains to be seen. But he is once again dominating the political conversation. Just a few days away, it makes it that much harder for other candidates to make their closing arguments and to break through all the other noise. Right. Yet, he was dominating the conversation for the first time at the actual debate so did his absence help any of the other candidates in particular do you think . You know, i still think that heading into monday, this is still a contest between donald trump and ted cruz and polls suggest that trump has the advantage. But we have some momentum for senator marco rubio and if senator marco rubio overperforms and has a strong showing and comes in second place, you know, then were in a situation where rubio has a lot of momentum heading into new hampshire. And of course, thats an even much different ball game as you know. We have new hampshire, but one cant neglect South Carolina which historically really quick has been arguably the most accurate predictor for the republican nominee. So well see how things unfold there. Thank you for joining us, kevin. Im gigi stone woods. This is first look. Dont forget to like us on facebook on facebook. Com first look msnbc.

You said on issue people here illegally, we can reach a compromise and then in the committee you said i want to bring people out of the shadows. Now, you want to trump trump on immigration.
