percio, treasury official and "morning joe" economic analyst, steve ratner. an msnbc contributor, karine jean-pier jean-pierre, good morning to you all. we're going to get to some more impeachment news. let's start with this new poll, the latest national quinnipiac university poll has mayor pete buttigieg surging nationally to second place. joe biden hanging onto a lead at 24%. he's up three points since last month. elizabeth warren's support has been cut in half in just a month down 14 points since october. she now sits in third place within the margin of error. biden leads the field in support among women voters. buttigieg follows in second place with older voters and leads among white voters with no college degree. let's keep that up for a second, elizabeth warren the original poll down 14 points. she was at 28 a month ago, down to 14 right now.
that would be replaced as part of his thousand miles. and as you said earlier, 83 miles of replacement wall has actually been built so far. but there has been some new wall started. there are eight miles of new wall that has been started. would anyone like to hazard a guess on how much of the eight miles of new wall that has been started has actually been finished? >> susan del percio? >> how about none? >> close, 32 feet. they have actually completed 32 feet of new wall. so let's take a look at what trump is up against or what jared kushner is up against. as you heard, they want to have 450 feet plus or minus of wall completed by the next election day. 285 of that would be simply replacement wall, so more replacement wall, not really adding any new wall. 60 feet of it is what's called duplicate fencing when you put a second wall in front of an existing wall to make it more
i want nothing, i don't want a quid pro quo. just an odd statement on its face, why would you call somebody and say that. now that we know he already would have been informed there was an investigation into precisely that issue, i think tens to und tends to undercut some of the white house defense. we'll now go into the phase where jerry nadler will try to pull all this evidence together into some kind of articles of impeachment presumably. whether jerry nadler will be as effective a communicator of information as adam schiff has been as chairman of the house intelligence committee phase of the investigation remains to be seen, but this train's still moving pretty fast. >> susan, if you look at the -- not the transcript, the summary of the july 25th phone call that the white house put out, again, and again, rudy giuliani's name comes up. the president said to president zelensky, rudy very much knows what's happening. he's a very capable guy. if you could speak to him, that would be great. what the president did last night while talking to bill o'reilly was the definition of
basically a counter intelligence critique of what's being pushed on capitol hill. that was extraordinary. we have not heard the last of this question of what the russian intelligence services were doing to try to confuse and deflect and the way in which key republicans starting with president trump seem to have gotten caught up in that, taken the narrative as their own. now the latest is pompeo, but again, we'll see whether our intelligence agencies are willing to make clear to the country, to lawmakers and then the public what they know. >> susan, you watch that quote from the secretary of state and you can't help but think about dr. fiona hill's testimony where she led in her opening statement by saying it was russia. it was not ukraine. i study this for a living. you guys don't know what you're talking about, and in fact, by propagating this conspiracy theory about ukraine, you are doing russia's bidding.
correspondent and host of "kacie d.c.," katie hunt. also, msnbc contributor mike barnicle is still with us. republican strategist and msnbc political analyst susan del p c percio, as well. steve rattner still with us. along with willie and me. joe is off on book deadlines. we have a lot to talk this hour and this drum beat toward impeachment. i'll start off with kasie hunt. what are you hearing on capitol hill? nancy pelosi is holding strong, but the calls to move forward on this presidency, on many levels, and get answers in real time, they're growing strong, aren't they? >> they are getting stronger, mika. we're going to get a chance to take the temperature more broadly this morning when nancy pelosi meets with her rank and
on donald trump. >> mike memoli, and now to msnbc contributor, and a democratic political strategist with us also. percio, numbers going one way for him. up, up, up. >> they are. >> where else can we go from here? only down, as mike was saying. that's a concern? >> we're so far away from the first. >> debate. >> caucus. and the first debate and everything. interesting to watch those numbers, if biden is in fact going to lay low for the next six weeks and prep for this debate, how will that affect the numbers? what numbers will he go into -- s. that too long? six weeks? >> my guess, pop in and out. he will have the media wherever he wants it and can come's in and out of it. not to have any events is
