Should they go after the president? who knows where any of that leads. they know that if they don't act on interference it's going to be a problem. i'm going to argue tonight it's an even bigger problem for the president. we all assume he ignores it because it's bad for him. we'll have a key democrat on and we got chris ruddy, the head of newsmax. he was with the president today. he watched the president's reactions to mr. mueller and he knows where his head is tonight. we'll have him on. >> that will be interesting. chris, thank you very much. see you in a couple of minutes, about seven minut...
