Managing editor of Bloomberg Politics and cohost, with all due respect, that airs at 6 00 on msnbc mark hall bred. You had a shaving incident . Its only tuesday it wasnt a shaving incident. Its all right. It was a bobcat. You cannot get it together. All i can think of is just hold the tissue up to your face. Its okay. Everybody knows. Yesterday i came in not feeling great but i showed up at least. Nicole wallace. And in washington oh. Msnbc hes here on time. Hes been waiting. All right. Weve got a big day here. This is the day youre not late for wisconsin. Wisconsin makes it bigger because trump did so badly there. Yeah. Yeah. Nicole, talk about, if you could stop that, mika. Talk about how wisconsin went so poorly. Thank you for so wisconsin
went so badly for donald trump. It was a complete reset. And hes just screwed. Right . Listen, i think theres no way hes going to be able to do anything. I think you find out how much politicians despise losing when they have a night like wisconsin. But i dont think you learn too much more than that. So i think what we learned is donald trump really, really, really hates losing. He made, you know, a lot of people debated whether or not he was capable of look at you but that was a reset. We can go down the columnist this time he went too far. We have polls were going to show today. Hes blowing them out in new york. The next six dates. Blowing them out. In pennsylvania. Pennsylvania. Yeah. He made a lot of changes but
benefitted from the calendar because the northeast as strong as he was in the south. The northeast is strong for him. Hes in a position after today to get back on track to get a majori tity before the conventi he couldnt have turned a better state. His home state of new york. Can he take the punch for iowa . He took the punch. Wisconsin he took the punch and hes there. Not only take the punch but getting an organization around him. Hes shown discipline that nobody said he was going to show. Nobody. All right. Im going to have some fun here. And neither of his two remaining opponents have been able engage him. Theres not been a single moment where theyve got him in a oneonone rhetorical match up. I think people around him that wanted him to do things differently and make tweaks to sort of stop the tweeting and all the Massive Media over exposure. Their hands were strengthened by
wisconsin. Yeah. And the same way that george w. Bush lost New Hampshire by 19 points. When candidates lose you find out how desperately they need to win. Here are some of the predictions about Donald Trumps dismal future. Two weeks ago after his loss in the wisconsin primary, before the votes were counted, it was wrote in the Washington Post this time it really is the end of trump. Really. Dana millbecks column. The wall street journal declared Wisconsin Trump. Stop. Even just one week ago the New York Times had a front page story that donald trump was, quote, losing ground. Today is election day in new york. And polls in some places are already open. The last poll we saw donald trump was doing very well. Up 33 over ted cruz. Looking ahead to next week, trump has a commanding 15point
lead in pennsylvania with 41 of the vote. The morning call poll has john kasich in second place at 26 . And cruz at 23. And in new jersey, a state that votes during the first week of june, trump surpassed a majority leading the way with 52 , according to a new rutgers lets go through these polls. The guy is absolutely dominating in three massive states. Yeah. I mean, look. Rubio got out of the raise and neither cruz nor kasich moved up much. Its not about winning the polls. The polls can give him hope that he can get before the convention. If hes over 50 in every one of the states. What does it do to 1237 . It means he can get on track to do it. He can get sidetracked in new york and indiana. Its close now. You can play with the numbers. We were playing with the numbers end lessly yesterday. I believe if he performs the way hes likely to today and next week, hell be on track to get a majority. To get 1237. That doesnt mean he can cant be derailed. Delegates aside, this has been an ongoing parlor game for us since last july. Yeah. The ceiling is 15. The ceiling is 20. The ceiling is 25. We can show you literally three hours of tape of bad predictions going through last week after wisconsin. His ceiling hes over 50 in the polls. Yeah. You know, youre going through the headlines, theres been so much projection from the press since the beginning. Since june when he came down the escalator hoping and rouoting fr an outcome that donald trump wouldnt do well. When you see the weakness, you see the outpours of this is it. Its unwise given what he could do in the northeast. He could be on track to get the
1237. Hes going to be close to the 1237 to make a strong case at convention that you cant give it to somebody else. You have people who are every time you predict that something good is going to happen to donald trump in the polls, you get the emails. Why are you in bed with an nazi . The fact is, Johnny Manziel. Hes kind of a toured. But if hes playing for the nfl next year, hes a jerk. Hes not nice to people. But every time he throws a 15 and out and makes a completion, i dont want the announcer to go Johnny Manziel hes a horrible person. He threw that 15 and out but this next thats what hes going to do badly because hes a horrible no. Tell me whether his team is going to win or lose. Youre not the pope. Youre not jesus
well, were the voters will make the judgment. And, yes, a quarterback far different than a guy that wants to be president of the united states. Let the editorial page handle whether hes worthy of being the president of the united states. Give me the analysis and nobody has been able to do it. A lot of people made fools of themselves because of the last nine months because of it. I mean, cover the campaign as it is and not as you would wish it to be. Yes. So, i mean, you know, i got to say that what david and all those columns were running. I wrote a column saying trump isnt over. He lost in wisconsin but the calendar looks good for him. And, you know, hes doing even better than i expected him in the preprimary polls in new york. It was clear from the start hes way ahead. Hes going into familiar
territory. Very good territory for him and, you know, i think marc is absolutely right. Hes back on track. Certainly potentially. You can almost say probably but not quite. To win the majority before the convention, and, frankly, so wh what. If he doesnt get quite to the majority, you have convince that this Republican Party is really going to try to give the nomination to somebody else. If trump is close. I never bought that and i dont buy it now. I dont buy it now that ted cruz is finishing in third place. The guy that is the one guy. The one guy that can beat donald trump. No he cant even beat john kasich. Look at the polls he finishes in third in the northeast states. This isnt a wyoming caucus. Its the biggest states. I would have made a difference choice and they might i dont know. We wonder why they didnt
throw it in for john kasich. Hello a guy who is two term. Hello. Twoterm governor. I dont get it. Youre throwing it in with ted cruz. They dont agree with him on any significant policy pillar. If you want to try to control the outcome then make the move and go there. Make the right choice. And their head to head match ups out today. John kasich light years ahead of Hillary Clinton and the only republican that easily beats Hillary Clinton. So youre trading in donald trump for a guy that does as badly in the general election match up as trump . And mark my words kasich would blow her out. Do better with donald trump. We dont get why john kasich isnt doing better. He has his chance today in new york where he campaigned extensively. By the way, if youre driving in the car, please, please, put
down the whisky and listen to me. Okay. Im going to take you home. Follow my voice. Okay. Please dont john kasich is a clinton at 39 . Paul ryan 4544. The hero paul ryan will ride in and maybe beat her by one point. Ted cruz losing to hillary. Donald trump losing to hillary. The only people that matter are john kasich and ted cruz. Everybody encircled a guy they loathe. And they probably dont want more than what they would get with donald trump. John kasich his establishment, and yet the establishment doesnt take the guy, willie, who is up by, what, 12 points . And has been consistently. And has been consistently. Its the stupidestist thing. The establishment is making one
stupid move. The nbc wall street poll the national number, which doesnt matter, it has kasich at 40 marco rubio had 20 around the last time around. How does it get divvied up when rubio gets out . Donald trump got 10 . Hes up 10. Cruz got eight points. Hes up eight. Remember the argument once the other guys get out theyre going to rush to the antitrump. Half of them went to trump. Right. All right. Has trump said all along he said everybody is adding up is not for me. Im going to get the voters and he has. If kasich cannot do well in pennsylvania, the state where he was born, he doesnt have much of an argument. I wonder if he gotten the backing from the people that tried to push cruz to stop
donald trump i wonder thats my point. A twoterm governor from ohio. With the National Security vision in line with the world Lindsey Graham and the National Security establishment. Im surprised he didnt assemble sort of a bunch of generals for im surprised that kasich didnt assemble a National Security coalition and put them out. Because the republican establishment views cruzs record on intel and defense with deep suspicion. Right hes great on National Security. On the economy. He was the first since 1920s to balance it four years in a row. A conservative that can work with democrats. Again, this isnt about kasich versus trump. This is about kasich versus cruz. Right. Why has the establishment chosen the guy that is barry
go goldwaters ugly stepson. Politically, this guy is going to win nine or ten states. I have a lot of friends that are really embarrassing themselves right now by telling me that he can win the general election against Hillary Clinton. This beautiful Boston Red Sox cup has a far better chance of picking upswing states. I love the red sox. Yeah. Go ahead. No. I agree. And its contradictory, as if the establishment is saying, well, you know, we have to go with cruz because hes ahead of kasich, when, in fact, the logic would lead them to say we have to go with trump because hes ahead of everybody. If youre going to somehow get rid of or bypass the clear frontrunner and incur the wrath of the base, why not go to the guy who can do well in the general election as opposed to the guy who couldnt do well in
the general election. And who you dont like in the first place. I dont understand it. And thats why i have no faith in the Party Establishment whatsoever. Oh, my to do a the convention. All right. Last night i know the three reasons hes behind marco rubio in delegates. He has a lot of positions that are moderate that the establishment thought if he did well, trump would kill him off. He rubbed people the wrong way. We love him. But he rubbed people the wrong way. Yeah. Unlike ted cruz. Who has . I dont know who youre talking about. Kasich rubbed people the wrong way. Hes behind prubio in delegates. If you want to stop trump john kasich rubbed people the wrong way . He has. John kasich rubbed people the wrong way . There are two republicans among the most famous
republicans in the land. Both of them described one of them as charming and generous and grateful. And the other not. Really . The one not was john kasich. Okay. They really have good judgment. I hope okay. 41 states the real problem its not the establishment doesnt like him. Its the voters havent shown any affinity for him. He has won one state. Ohio. He won with a certain flair. I never got to the news yes, you did. Well get to that later when we have some to report. But you are all so fascinating. Well just wait. Still ahead on morning joe. The mayor of new york city, Democrat Bill de blasio joins us on set. Plus, petter king on todays primary race in his backyard. Well be back on the air today for a special edition of afternoon joe. Weve aged ten years since the picture was taken ten months ago. Joe, you too 3 00 eastern time well be on the air. Oh, my god. That was my college picture or something. Anyhow, lets go to bill karins. He always looks good. He has a check on the forecast. Did you see the picture yesterday the houston area. This time yesterday had thunderstorms that werent moving and they had millions of dollars worth of damage done yesterday. One of the worst floods in the citys history. They were comparing it to allison and the memorial day floods from a year past. About a thousand homes had water in them. Thousands of cars got stranded in the water. There were fatalities in houston area. The city itself had minor flooding but outside the city where it was horrible. So as far as the rainfall, we picked up about 10 to 12 inches of rain in the huge area here. Right up north of i10. And as far as what we dealt with, the radar right now is blank. We thought there was a chance of rain last night. Thankfully it held off. There could be additional storms
today. Were in the clear for the time being. The river levels continue to go down and hopefully doing clean up there. Showers arkansas and missouri. Additional rainfall. Were going to get other rains today and tomorrow in the area they had the flooding. It shouldnt be horrible. Another two to three inches compared to the 15 you had wont cause many additional issues. Flood watch continues for today. Cooler and rain and drizzle in areas from boston to albany. D. C. South wards in for the great stuff. 82 today in d. C. two days in a row in the 80s. Beautiful april weather. Look at that picture. That is gorgeous. More morning joe when we come back. What is that . Its you

its and as fans of ourselawesome tv but it is going to take a total team effort to get through all these shows now are you with me . Three, two, one. Watchathon big is back. Xfinity watchathon week now until april 24. The greatest collection of shows free with xfinity on demand. Let me make a dramatic announcement to you on this beautiful evening. Are you ready for this . I am prepared tonight to announce i will release all of the transcripts of all of the speeches that i have given behind closed doors to wall
street. [ cheers and applause ] are you ready . Yeah here they are thats so funny. I just love that. Here they are. Nothing. Its pretty good. I like it. No. Its fine. Its great. I think the speech thing is high comedy. No, its real. How is he going to do . Hes not going to win. I dont have a good feel for it he seems to be closing strong. And, you know, people are trying to make sure no one thinks she wins by five or six in some sort of defeat. Hes not going to do well enough to meaningfully cut into the lead. Does he have any shot of winning . If he wins he gets a shot of adrenali
adrenaline. Even if he wins theyll split the delegates. You have to love the fight, though. The fight and the message. The fundraising. Very impressive. She has a lead on pledge delegates. Right. And votes, right. I mean. Even if he somehow i understand your point, mark. I understand. Im saying it does have an impact for a woman that would have lost eight in a row and lost her home state. All of these knicks add up as you move into a general election. Donald trump, look, im running against a lady that cant win her state. She lost eight in a row. In fairness, he might say that even if it isnt true. Hes trump she would love to start rebuilding her image and not having to worry about him. And that is partly what today is about. To try to convince use today to say close the door. Thats it. You can keep running but stop the attacks. Thats the thing if she wins by double digits, then thats a huge win for her. And she can say its been nice. Bernie is great. Lets join together. And i think most people really would understand that. You know hes really only accelerated his attacks, thou
