>> reporter: so there's no doubt that he looms large over the race, erin, but it's important to point out there are many republicans shopping and who are interested in turning the page. the question is, what is that balance here. ? >> the next 12 days, that's what's important. so looking to move on, to your point, if you're not doing it -- maybe they're doing it because it's time. that's the crucial question. jeff, stay with me. i want to bring in amy walter, publicablier and editor in chief of the cook report. from what you're seeing, who do you think, who has the momentum, because it's going to set the tone, and knicki haley or ron desantis. >> i think these events that you all are hosting, both the town

any actions he took as president? >> well, we don't know, erin. i want to be clear that the $5.5 that was discovered is a very conservative estimate. i know in your opening you talked about this is an investigation that started seven years ago. while it started seven years ago, trump was fighting it every step of the way. he was fighting every single type of disclosure. he wasn't complying with the oversight committee, and fighting in court. it wasn't until september of '22, that we actually started receiving documents. as soon as january '23 hit and comber became chair, comber shut it down. >> what you did find, congresswoman, was 20 countries, according to the report paid a total of $7.8 million to trump's

killer came out with his manifesto, and he was trapped in the confederate flag. and the confederate flag had always been either on top of the state house, or right in front of the state house since the year 2000. and it is incredibly sensitive, and a personal issue in south carolina. and i focused that next day. i said, i want to have four meetings. i want to call republican leadership, i want to call democrat leadership, i want to call the congressional delegation, and i want to call community leaders. and i told my staff, don't tell them what this is about, because i knew they wouldn't show up. and when they came, i said at 3:00 today, i'm going to call for the confederate flag to come down. and if you will stand with me, i will forever be grateful. and if you won't, i will never let anyone know that you are in this room. and it was a tough thing, erin, because we have two thirds of the house and two thirds of the senate. and to bring a divided state together, in and avoid riots and protests.

better believe them. russia said once they take ukraine, poland and the baltics are next. those are nato countries, and that puts america at war. this is about preventing war, it has always been about preventing war. we don't want our men and women to have to go to fight. and so, supporting ukraine is actually preventing war. and seeing it for what it is, and putin has hit rock bottom. we know that, he has lost 87% of the troops that started the war, they've raised the draft age in russia to 65. they are getting drones from iran, and missiles from north korea. we know they have hit rock bottom. but now let me tell you something else that's really important, erin. i told you about that brutality on october 7th in israel, right. i october 7th is putin's birthday.

gaza. i mean, if you look at what hamas has done to gaza, israel doesn't want gaza. but the palestinian authority has proven they have an inability to lead. and the reason they have an ability to lead is they allowed hamas to come in and do all of this to the people of gaza. so i don't think we removed palestinians, but i think they have to have some sort of leadership that ensures to israelis that they don't have to worry about terrorists living on their doorstep. >> marcia aaron's is a retiree from urbandale. marcia, glad you're here tonight. republican and i know you also say your sporting governor haley, >> hi nicky. ? i just want to think cnn and erin and caitlin for having this town hall tonight, and -- for hosting it. also nikki, thank you so much for all of your time in iowa, i really appreciated. >> it's been fun. >> i am wondering how you would reach voters that are concerned that you are more of a war hawk versus a peace through strength

criticism, but from what you see, is there something here, is there a point that desantis should be going harder after trump? >> yeah. iowa voters are very save, than guy is absolutely right. it's crazy that we're repeating history again. when trump was campaigning the first time around in iowa, nobody wanted to touch him. nobody wanted to say anything negative because they were afraid of upsetting his supporters. they thought somehow magically he's going to falter and then i'll pick up his supporters. that doesn't happen magically. >> sounds like deja vu. >> it's deja vu all over again. you absolutely have to go hard against him because he's the leader. he's the front-runner. he's the person -- you actually have to pull voters away from him. you have to say, look, i know you're supporting trump but here's a reason to support me instead. no, they have destroying haley and departmentis destroying each other and hope they are pick up that vote. >> and i think after the campaign is over and you're talking to departmentis people they will say to you, erin, you know what, we really made a mistake we didn't go hard against trump. if you're going to come at the
