just before noon he signed an executive order formally withdrawing the us from the tra ns pacific partnership. it was a campaign promise and a key tenet of his pledge to deglobalise, putting in his words, america first . our diplomatic editor, mark urban, looks at what trump s first day tells us about a new direction for america. back to work on a blowy, rainy morning for the people of this city. for the new president, after a weekend of political bluster, a day to demonstrate that the wind of change you porters bluster, a day to demonstrate that the wind of change supporters had voted for had hit the white house. first one is withdrawals from the of the united states from the trans pacific partnership. everyone knows what that means, right? we ve been talking about this for a long time. mr trump signed three executive orders today, stopping a pacific trade deal, freezing governmentjob recruitment, and halting funding for abortion education overseas. that follows an ....
Is getting a daily reminder. and i do think that there are some democrats that can lead into that a little bit more. doesn t have to be the white house. it goes back to jen s point, i don t think it s just democrats that make that point. i think you can have republicans making that chaos argument. it struck me, this reporting that i started with about the desantis super pac sort of doing what democrats have been traditionally known for, which is investing in a field program, investing in door knocker s, having this troop of people who can go door to door in iowa for desantis. do those resources matter, jennifer, in this environment, if rhonda sanchez has not figured out fundamentally how to distinguish himself from donald trump? well, you need a candidate, first of all. it s always good to have when you train them to do door knocking, they can dornoch for anybody after they know how to do it. but the problem with ron desantis is ron desantis. he s a thoroughly unlikable, boring, ....
That, of course, fanny willis has to bring, not the special grand jury. when you have, as cora suggested, 12 or maybe more people who are recommended to face charges, who do you prioritize? do you go after everyone, because you have the evidence? do you have too strategize about your resources and if you can if you have the bandwidth to prosecute all of these people? yeah, you know, look, as in everything in government, certainly in law enforcement, resources matter. if you have the resources to go to trial, yes, that will dictate things. but the simple thing, wherever prosecutors proceed with going to trial, it s, what is, number one, the most readily provable offense that you can bring. number two, what do you think you can get past a jury. if that s 6 or 11 or 12 or how many people. if you think and are convinced and can credibly say that we think that we can get this past a jury unanimously, beyond a reasonable doubt, that s who you ....
getting more numbers. we re not yet able to make a projection based on these first round, second round of these exit polls. we re getting more. let me walk over to john king and explain what s going on. no projection yet. but it seems at least according to the early exit polls information, the new numbers in the exit polls are still coming in. looks like it s going to be a good night for mitt romney. every reason to believe that governor romney will win the state of illinois. if you ve been with us through past primary nights, the people who just finished voting talking to the exit polls now. santorum does better in that lastaway. and often senator santorum has overperformed his last poll numbers. we re being cautious. we d rather get it right than wrong. we can tell things if we look at the electorate today. we ve seen this in some other states. nearly 4 in 10 voters today say beating president obama is the most important quality. if you look here, among those vo ....
Counties. we are back with the panel. steve, bill, kirstin. i think there are three take-aways. romney s inevitability, i think has vanished. he is the biggest candidate, but the idea that he can t be defeated when he s engaged, which he was, especially at the end here, i think is now good afternoon he doesn t have that to lean on. the second one ed rollins alluded to it but didn t develop it much. resources don t matter as much as everybody thinks. if they did, rick perry would have won iowa. he didn t. he came in fifth. resources matter, but looking forward, with the romney campaign s ground gain there, their organization, the money that they have, it all matters, but message matters, too. and rick santorum has a main that seems to have worked here. it worked for herman cain, for ....
