he beat eric cantor. this titan of republican politics. in eric cantor's home district. kicked him out of congress. and that in a strange way is how we got to today. because we now know that had eric cantor won that election, had he been able to win over those people in that ballroom, had he held on to his seat against that no-name upstart college professor, today eric cantor would be speaker of the house. he'd be third in line to the presidency. he'd be the leader of congress. he'd be the second most powerful person in washington after the president himself. had eric cantor not been primaried out of his seat, the next thing that would have happened after eric cantor got re-elected to congress that yeah, had that happened, the next thing that would have happened is john boehner would have announced he was stepping down as speaker, that the time had come to put eric cantor in that job. that is what was supposed to happen last year. that is what as going to happen last year. and eric cantor had by now, had that all happened, eric cantor would be well into his first year as

>> eric, nothing that we deal with russia can be of help. we are in bed now, formed coalitions with russia, with iran, with saudi arabia. i mean, totalitarian states. saudi arabia is a state to get excused for being an atist and like we collectivized american self-defense. depending on rush why and saudi arabia. we could defeat isis in two days. we have the fortitude, the military fortitude but instead we depend on the coalitions to degrade and destroy and the big loser here is america because it destroys our pride and destroys our self esteem. >> staying with you for a second r. you okay with russia taking care of isis, at least in syria? maybe not necessarily iraq but syria. >> we're the loser, eric. again, if it's a moral threat to us, if it's an actual threat to us, why do we have to outsource it to russia, a country we can't depend on and trust? that's the american foreign policy these days. love thy enemy. >> michelle, one step further. okay. so the water's under the bridge. president obama decided to lead from behind and syria is a me

eric? >> benjamin, any idea -- you said that no one's complained responsibility, but any idea who may be behind the bombing and what are the implications of that? >> well, no one claimed responsibility, you're right, but the tactics seem to suggest radical extremists, the use of suicide bombers is their motto. and to be honest, such is the murky nature of the region's politics, that it will be a while until we actually know. the peace process between the turkish government and the kurds has all but collapsed in recent months, leaving the country in turmoil. and turkey is now very close to waging all-out war against the kurds. and this is going to have a real effect on the u.s.' ability to counter isis, assad, and russia in neighboring syria. eric? >> benjamin, thank you. so tragic, obviously. >>> we're going to talk weather now. another round of rain is in the forecast for an already soaked south carolina. the state's national guard running sweeps in flooded areas, efforts. the big concern

eric adams is a retired captain of the n.y.p.d. he's been around government a long time, and they tend to agree on a lot of things. eric adams, certainly, is a supporter of stop-and-frisk and appropriate police activity. he was very clear about that. she's much more into the community-based argument about "let's see. how do we get people to get along better so we can reduce incidents?" is that the way to police? there's research in both directions. >> would mayor de blasio have benefited by being in some of these meetings, jeanne? >> i mean, i would think so, and, you know, i think that's where some people are scratching their head as to why mayor de blasio wasn't at these meetings, because i do think he would benefit an awful lot, and i think not being at the meetings makes it look like, you know, he's trying to play both ends against the middle, and i think, politically, that ends up being a big problem for him going forward. >> let's talk a little about the race for president. you saw donald trump and his family on the cover of
