monmouth 2, quinnipiac 1. only 1% in the quinnipiac poll, biden leads that with 51%. >> what's your kicker? >> my kicker is, remember last week where there was that poll that said who was the better president, lincoln or trump and republicans said trump and all the liberals like, oh, we got him now. whoo. well, take a look at this. who is the better president among democrats. barack obama or george washington. obama beat washington, 63% to 29%. among republicans, washington slightly ahead of trump, 44% to 37%. these questions don't tell us anything. stop trying to make fools of the other side. >> it's all about the electoral college anyway. >> that's probably true. george washington swept the electoral college. only president to ever do so. >> good thing nobody highlights these polls and talks about them. you're right. they're so silly. harry, thank you. >> thank you. >>> will swing district democrats support these two articles of impeachment against president trump? well, we're going to talk to a democrat fro

we have a cnn poll, quinnipiac poll. fox poll all those numbers going out there tonight. >> they are all higher than the clinton impeachment approval numbers by the way. >> martha: okay. so let me ask you this. very interesting to me when i asked schumer come out today and say they need more witnesses on the senate side. it looked as though he was kind of pointing the finger back at his colleagues in the house and suggesting that you all have left business unfinished. how do you feel about that? >> he is right about the four witnesses. he says that we need to hear from. remember, the president has told those witnesses not to come forward. the difference. >> martha: why don't you subpoena all of them and why don't they push for all of them to come and put it through the court system and wait? >> so they have been subpoenaed. >> martha: one of them was recalled. >> 14 of them have been subpoenaed. martha, the difference between the house and senate proceeding and this is what senator schumer knows the chief justice of the

it does seem to be additional evidence, like the quinnipiac poll. monmouth poll showed no movement from the height of the controversy about the ukrainian telephone call to today. it seems to me the internals are showing that independents are tending to move against impeachment. the president may emerge from this but let's remember we are a third of the way through the drama. we have the house floor debate and the vote. we have the senate trial in the senate vote and the key test is going to be in both chambers whether more democrats vote to keep the president then republicans vote to remove. >> martha: good to see you. thank you very much. coming up, democratic congresswoman maxine waters was one of the very first a long time ago to say she wanted president trump impeached. >> they say maxine, please don't say impeachment anymore and when they say that, i say impeachment, impeachment. >> martha: what was she saying about president clinton's impeachment in 1998? one sees with waters. hi, jesse.

according to an august poll from quinnipiac, which of the following gun policies is supported by over 50% of american voters? universal background checks, red flag laws, requiring a license to purchase a gun, banning assault weapons. stay tuned and we'll tell you the correct answer. my book of the week is david rubenstein's "the american story." as you heard earlier, rubenstein has interviewed some of america's greatest historians and put the conversations together in this book. it is superbly done, making for a rich, wide-ranging discussion of american history. but because of the format a very engaging one that is very easy to read and reread. the answer to my "gps" challenge this week is all of the above. in fact, all these policy proposals have support from between 60% and 93% of american voters. over 90% of americans support requiring background checks for all gun buyers, including nearly 90% of republicans and 93% of gun owners. 80% support a red flag law, allowing judges to revoke guns from individuals deemed at risk. and 82% are in favor of requiring individuals to obtain a lic

. >> martha: you are absolutely convinced and let's look at the numbers because as the new quinnipiac poll. 51% of the country says that the president should not be impeach and remove from office for this behavior. 45% say yes. you got a 6% spread there. looks like the process we've all been watching has not really change the minds of that many people out there and some people feel like you had taken a little bit more time with it, you might've brought with you, you know, those other 51% of the country if you continue to lay it out and build the case for people like john bolton come in the mulvaney perhaps. why do you think that wasn't necessary. >> very importantly, this is an issue we have to honor oath of office. >> martha: you don't have to to do that on a timeline, necessarily. >> we can't be guided. this is not applicable calculation for this is about preventing the president reaching out with another foreign leader to rig the election and sheet in 2020. the reality is that we hope people will watch the hearing and watch and react to the evidence, but we have a solemn responsibi

this comes as we look at another poll going into next year's reelection, a quinnipiac poll, are you better off now -- that question people are always asked before they head to the ballot box. 57% of people say they are better off financially than they were in 2016. 22% said they were soft, 90% saying the same. my math is not great, but 76% of that say they are the same or better. how do democrats run against that? >> it's really hard to run against an incumbent president as is, and particularly hard against an incumbent president with a good record. we saw last week the job report coming out, blowing out of the water any expectations we have had on new jobs, on wage growth. we are seeing the trickle-down in the middle and lower income demographics. it is certainly going to be tough for anyone to try to take on the president in that environment. let alone in an environment where all we are talking about his impeachment. i think this is an unforced error by the democrats. i think it is a politically unsavvy move. unfortunately, for them, it's taking all of the oxygen out of the room as it re

sort of politics of this when nancy pelosi id there was going to be an actual link where it was at 51% quinnipiac went up. now it's back down to 51% and really interesting in that same pollnly 34% of independents. st. trump is doing a good job. but 52% of independents say they're agait this and of course they're the group that's going to decide the election. what about the abuse of power. >>are you comfortable with what trump asked the ukrainian president to do on his behalf it related to his political opponent. >>so you can you can say it that way and and i understand why people do say that way of course i was the first one in the country to write about the ukrainian us tree ihich that says the executive can ask because the on going investigation. under that treaty. the president has t right to ask for the information. now if you're political opponent. >>just because you run for office doesn't mean you're clear from an investigation and the bidens are part of that investigation. it turns out he's a political opponent. but just bcause you tucker for president doesn't mean you're million and remem

we have a new poll from quinnipiac expected to unnerve democrat moderates. it shows for the first time the majority of voters now oppose impeachment even after the hearing. now, if nancy pelosi loses 18 of the 31 vulnerable moderate democrats, if they vote against impeachment, impeachment is over. this as reports are coming in, yet another ukraine official now undercuts the democrats key impeachment finding. to labor unions, protesting bernie sanders, disrupting his speech on his government takeover plans of healthcare yesterday. tonight why labor unions are really angry at bernie sanders and elizabeth warren. plus a bombshell new report revealing just how bad bernie and elizabeth warren's government takeover of healthcare really is. we already have government run healthcare. it is the va. a new scandal, hundreds of thousands of improper cancellations and delays in medical exams for soldiers, for things like heart disease, cancer, problems with brain disease. it's jeopardizing our military veterans. that story tonight. plus pushback on the trump administrati

. >> in fact in that quinnipiac poll that was interesting to me, sanders, 52%. sanders, warren and andrew yang to combine for 75% of that age cohort, which is in a different universe from 65 and older. although from a voting perspective the issue is people over 65 vote much more eliably both in primaries and general election. >> that's not going to happen this time. i know it because i saw it in michigan last year in the off-year election. we put two ballot proposals on the ballot. legalize marijuana fully and make injure emagerrymandering a voter suppression a crime. we doubled the youth vote from the last off-year from 2014 to 2018. we'll do that again if we have the right candidate and proposals on the ballot next year. >> it's funny you mentioned that on marijuana the data for progress which a digital think tank which is really interesting polling reports had been like if you want to convert non-voters into voters non-marijuana legalization is supportive. and this is an issue that's on the merits and very good politics among a cohort of people you can energi

however, new poll numbers from quinnipiac out just this hour show the majority of americans think the economy is excellent or good. "new york times" economics reporter ben castleman joins me now. ben, thank you for joining me. this is an interesting conversation because in the last recession, the midwest, the industrial parts of this country, got hurt so badly that one of the points you make in your article is that even if they're not growing as fast as the rest of the country is, people might still say the economy's good because it's -- because they know what bad really feels like. >> yeah. i think that's right. i think it's really hard to know what people, what voters are going to benchmark against. right? are they going to think about this as hey, it's a lot better than it was in the middle of the recession? or are they going to think, hey, this is not the kind of improvement that we were promised or that things are worse than they were a couple of years ago? or they seem like they're getting worse now. those are -- those are decisions that individual voters are going to make. and

today, some really interesting new looks at the race, courtesy of polsters at quinnipiac. this literally just came out. also this afternoon, another poll from monmouth university. joining me, the guy that knows the numbers, national political correspondent steve kornacki. start with the q poll. it landed in my inbox a half hour ago, and it has implications for the debate, right? >> fresh news for the 3:00 p.m. hour. these polls matter because the deadline to qualify for the next democratic debate, that debate coming up december 19th, the deadline is two days away. there was one candidate that still needed to hit the number, 4%, in one more poll. you can see this is the results, the new quinnipiac poll nationally. there's the key. andrew yang. he needed to hit 4%. had two days to do it. weren't sure if after this poll there would be another poll the next two days. guess what, andrew yang hits 4%. therefore, he qualifies for the december 19th debate. he will be on stage. all four of these candidates on stage, amy klobuchar on stage. the seventh spot won't be michael bloomber

a new quinnipiac university poll shows 45% of voters think president trump should be pe

and quinnipiac has similar numbers 45% of voters think that president should be impeached and 43% say he should not and little change from october. and only 13% of voters said they might change their minds but that is a critical slice of the electorate, and the democratic voters are looking at how the later this month vote on impeachment. >> there is no question. >> i did not run for this seat to impeach the president. and go back to check my 18 months of running for the office. there is nothing in there about it. >> it is not why i ran. >> and republicans in toss-up senate seats are weary of weighing in. protesters gathered at all six of senator collins' offices in maine tuesday. >> just as you would not want a juror to go into the case prejudging it and not being familiar with all of the evidence, i feel very strongly about that. >> reporter: a senate trial could also scramble the 2020 calendar and requiring the six senators to run for president to return to washington after the holidays. >> we will take it on and we have no choice, and how long we will be on it is going to be deter

reporter: cory windham recently decided to become an organ diner, signing up on his college campus at quinnipiac university. >> i thought this was the% -- the perfect opportunity to help other people. >> reporter: classmates recruited him at a registration drive targeting young people run by s.o.d.a. or student organ donation advocates. >> my sister passed away at the young age of 14. >> reporter: for sara miller who started the group when she was just 18 at washington university in st. louis, the mission is personal. >> on the worst day of our lives, my family decided that laura would be an organ donor. and little did we know, 1,000 miles away in upstate new york, a special education teacher was dying of liver failure. and my sister's liver was the reason that this special education teacher, trish, is able to be alive today. >> reporter: more than 120,000 people nationwide are waiting for organs. dr. sander floorman is the director of the transplant institute at mt. sinai hospital and says there is a major imbalance between the supply and demand. >> we desperately need more organs, and this is

election was held today between biden and trump, biden leads here in the black vote 87% to 7% according to quinnipiac, you know, just this week. that is massive gap, terra. quickly please. >> it is but it needs to be in the states that matter like i said michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania where trump won by less than a percentage point. be careful the trump campaign doesn't do things to try to depress the black vote in some places more so than gain it because people stayed home in 2016 if they didn't like hillary. that's just as bad as trump gaining any support. >> thank you both. have a great weekend. see you soon. thanks for coming on. >>> a former breitbart editor says stephen miller is a white supremacist and she's sharing miller's own words she says back her allegations up. we'll have that for you next. >>> a former breitbart editor says white house advisor stephen miller is white house supremacist. she says she knows because she was one too and she says his own e-mails to her proves it. >> reporter: a former breitbart editor is talking about what she sees as a danger in the white house. she says

want to be cnn opposition to impeachment running at 47%, 2 points higher than those who he favor it, quinnipiac better showing 51% opposition to impeachment, other polls showing even stronger opposition to impeachment. einvestigative journalist solomon is now reporting the government fiddling suspicious payments to hunter biden as far back as 2016 asked ukraine to investigate. before joe biden forced firing of ukrainianan prosecutor overseeing burisma energy corporation investigation president spent speaker pelosi blistering sxav pointed six-page letter today accused of party of hate the democrats, of declaring open war on american o democracy. president trump wrote of the radical dems impeachment quest you are the ones interfering in america's elections. you are the ones, subverting america's democracy. i are the ones obstructing justice, you are the ones bringing pain and suffering to our republic off if your receivish personal political partisan gain the president called dems abuse of power charge a completely disingenuous, meritless baseless invention of your imagination, adding their secon

you see that poll, quinnipiac the same result. watch battle on ground voters. 51% oppose. >> moderate democrats are looking at these. >> right, moderate democrats are those who won in districts that donald trump carried. they are worried. i suspect that mrs. pelosi will still keep the house. you drop that on donald trump, he emerges from the smoke, what do you have left. elizabeth: swap out name donald trump, put in name barack obama with these impeachment allegations. still does not rise to level of an impeachable offense. >> look there is a reason that impeachment is hard. elizabeth: we understand the issues we've been reporting. >> presidents have been impeached bove bu but not remov, it is hard, jerry nadler used to make this point a few months ago, he said you overturn the results of an election, you have to do it on a bipartisan basis, he threw it to the side. and mrs. pelosi was make similar noises they were lead by more me radical peter. party. elizabeth: bill mcgurn thank you. >> thank you. elizabeth: why elizabeth warren

quinnipiac poll. do you want to show the audience? i'll take it from here. national poll, no impeachment given the removal. >> greg: we thought you were done talking about it! >> juan: totally a master of rhetoric, a master of hosting. largely static. before, you are right. >> greg: he's going to win in a landside if you keep saying this, juan. >> dana: changing the minds of democrats and congressional districts that trump won. democrats are not worried about hurting for impeachment. i also saw today that there may be democrat senators who are thinking about voting against impeachment. >> katie: there will be. >> dana: this is a lose-lose for democrats. >> katie: schumer's job is try to win back the majority. house impeachment going to go over there? >> juan: i heard from charles schumer today on it. mr. schumer said that this is a strong case for conviction and, i note, that democrats, the democratic base, as we've heard just now and you saw the poll that the master host put up, that in fact the democrats 'support has not waned. it is still there. >> greg:

of polls come out over the last 24, 36 hours and they basically show the same thing, cnn, fox news, quinnipiac university 45%. overall that average of where the nation is so evenly divided, the electorate. so evenly divided, 47% to 48%. it's basically split dead even. >> and it's been like that for a while. very unusual in polling that people stay stuck in the same place despite developments. even before ukraine and post ukraine, about the same place. why? >> one major reason why, what is a major reason? among those who support impeachment, 72% is because trump's done a bad job running the country. this is very much in line with their partisanship. among those who pose impeachment, 78% trump's done a good job running the country. people are choosing impeachment positions based upon how they already feel. >> that's always true with presidents. obama had that, too. it's only about in the 30s for most people. >> apples for apples, clinton getting impeached. >> you were saying how historic it is. clinton at his high water mark in december of '98, only 40% said yes, 59% said no in an abc news/"wash

. >> monmouth and quinnipiac have you as the clear front runner and michael bloomberg at 5%. what does that tell you about what democrats are looking for? >> michael, keep spending. it has been a party that's decided that everybody deserves an equal shot. when people think that somebody is in a position where they have a distinct or unfair advantage, they're not happy about it. >> all these later state polls will change once somebody starts winning. it is a reminder especially as you get to the more crowded 14 states including california. tv markets are expensive. b, you get to a place where the electorate is so much more diverse, which makes it complicated for the candidates. >> the bloomberg and tom steyer show there is something money can buy. it's a little bit but maybe not enough over the long haul of this race. i think the challenge is going to be that some of these candidates are going to have to figure out -- if you're bloomberg and you want to spend $100 million now, we should note that a lot of that is further out in the primary process because he's not competing in

here is quinnipiac at 29% and one more here where he has a sizable lead in the monmouth polar 26%, sanders a little closer. we had some information that showed swing states and this is where it gets interesting and i want to go to you on this. the president has been surging, these numbers flipped a couple months ago and the president has pretty commanding leads especially over the socialist if you look at sanders and warren look at that lead, looks like biden has the best shot. would you agree? >> the democratic voters are signaling that is where they are. people voting with her heads think biden and buttigieg have the strongest ability to get trump out of office and that is what they are optimizing for. you can't discount that joe biden has a strong base of support with democratic voters who form the party establishment particularly black voters in states across the country and that will be important in 2020. rob: peter doocy asked about this political story that he might serve one term. a lot of people didn't believe he wanted to do this anyway. what did you make of this story? >> i can'

a poll just last week, the quinnipiac poll 57% of americans say their financial situation has gotten better since donald trump got elected. this summer there was a poll that asked is the economy working for you personally? two thirds of americans said yes. in every democratic ubermajority, nonwhite, people without college education, smalltime voters, rural votes. the only people who disagreed were democratic women and people who are superliberal. inside the liberal bubble which democratic candidates have the economy is doing badly but for everybody else it is doing great and when you are campaigning against the syrians of voters you are not going to win. shannon: who is next to lead the field? >> the next to leave the field? i would say who should? or who will? i am going to say tom stier. just not there. >> i hope it is not andrew yang because i really like andrew yang and would love to have a beer with him. shannon: thank you very much, most watched, most trusted, most grateful you spent the evening with us. i am shannon bream. heather: happening at 4:00 on the east coast fox news

quinnipiac the same thing, should the president be impeached yes or no independents of 36% said yes, 58% said they shouldn't. at least with independents look like they are not convinced. >> not just independents but in swing states the polls are not going the way democrats would like. what happens in and impeachment is if you're dealing with and impeachment that has nothing to do with a crime you are doing it for political reasons, to tarnish the president and it was a reasonable expectation that once this got going it would build, there would be credibility to this, it would harm him in some way, support for impeachment would rise, not only has it not risen, it is gone down, you have seen approval ratings go up, a worst-case political scenario for democrats, they expanded political capital, very extreme to do something like this, very negative and makes it seem the criticism they are deranged by their hatred for trump has legitimacy and to not get any political wind out of this is not what they were hoping for. >> the here's what he said it his rally which was held in real time at t

this is quinnipiac poll. and you see joe biden there with 43%. a yawning gap between him and the second place person bernie sanders with 11%. he's enjoying, as you see there, a rather sizeable lead from his counterparts. >> yes, david. thank you for having me tonight. i think that what joe biden is trying to do here is really remind voters, you know, less than 60 days to iowa that he is the one who does have significant black supported, as you point out in that quinnipiac poll, and most polls show joe biden, you know, far and away with a lead among black voters. and pete buttigieg is not the only candidate that has been struggling to get support among black voters. although vice president biden called him out and also senator warren for their lack of support. but all of his competitors know that the path to the nomination goes through black voters. and if they are going to make any headway between now and the time that the first votes are cast just a few short month as way they are going to need to erode some of the support that joe biden has mai

. >> there's a new quinnipiac national poll today. we know national polls are not that meaningful when we talk about the electoral college. joe biden has 43% among black voters nationally. bernie sanders is the only other candidate in double digits even. elizabeth warren, kamala harris, pete buttigieg, 4%, cory booker. i mean, all the way down. the fact that kamala harris and cory booker are within the margin of error there in single digits, they're african-american candidates who are not persuading black voters. the african-american vote is a key part of the democratic coalition for any primary victory. >> it's hard to imagine anybody winning the democratic nomination without getting a substantial portion of african-american voters. but you pull back a little bit from the frame here and what's happening in the democratic race and you are seeing the moment for the seicentrists to surge. you're seeing biden and buttigieg and the democrats are pulling back and are beginning to focus on this question of electability. i think two things h

a new quinnipiac poll shows that 45% of voters believe the president should be impeached and removed from office while 51% disagree, so a flip of the others. on capitol hill some republican senators, the future jurors in the trial in january say they have zero interest not only has their leader mvp mcconnell signaled he's taking his quote, cues from the president's later, like he's an actor, from the president's lawyers, but senator graham is openly and repeatedly admitting that he intends to be a biased juror by himself. >> this will come to the senate and die quickly, and i will do everything i can to make it die quickly. >> the senate has a constitutional duty in holding this trial and comprehensively evaluating the case. agree? >> no, it doesn't say that in the constitution. i am trying to give a pretty clear signal that i have made up my mind. i'm not trying to be a fair juror here. >> wow, a dramatic departure from graham who 20 years ago xwlofrd the country to give the impeachment process a chance. >> please give us a chance. i know what people want to do with it case. i know

joe biden in the nevada desert and had a chance to ask him about a pair of national polls, one from quinnipiac and one from monmouth that showed him holding up the bloomberg ad blitz for now. >> they have us the clear front runner and michael bloomberg despite all the ads, 5% but what does that tell you about what democrats are looking for. >> impeachment - democrats are looking are looking at a number of things, mostly first and foremost someone who represents the basic values of the democratic party. >> michael bloomberg thinks if the choice is any leading democrat or trump voters will go with trump. >> i think trump is getting stronger and would eat alive the candidates but because they don't have plans that i think are practical, that can be implemented, don't have management experience. this is not a job where you take training wheels, this is the future of the free world, maybe the whole world and you need people with experience. >> for most of the cycle so far impeachment issues have taken a backseat to policy issues until now. at analyst before an event tonight. >> for the most part th

all of the polls that came out with her cnn, abc, quinnipiac, they are all for republicans. can you believe they have less than 30% republicans, 33% on election day in 2016. so they can't believe that the polls that they rigged are actually going against them. because after two weeks of ayhearings, they board the couny to death. they came up with no evidence, no proof and all they proved it as donald trump is innocent of everything they are saying. this is a railroad. all politics and the country is atired of it. they want to move on to other things. we introduce the campaign, trump campaign and reduced a poll in the 30 districts that the democrats hold because one switched. we alreadympai got one. because of this. but in that poll, 53% opposed the impeachment and only 43% support and member of congress of every election. so they are big at risk and this is backfiring big time. >> laura: so i think, scott they are here for shokin, it is very complicated. a lot of different players. i'm not saying it's not important, but i think a lot of this goes down to what they are seeing

a state like south carolina, a quinnipiac poll has him polling at zero. how much would a win in iowa mean for the prodder rate? broader race. not necessarily new hampshire but south carolina and beyond? >> there are a couple of things. one, it does have something to do with the number of visits. individuals have gone to iowa. i think even more importantly it's the lack of diversity you see in iowa. the lack of diversity you see in new hampshire. that's where pete buttigieg is doing well. can he overcome the hump and garner any support? i've said this a thousand times on cnn because it rings true. the people who choose the democratic nominee are my momma and her friends. they're african-american women. that is who chooses -- of a certain age. that is who chooses the democratic nominee. those are the voters in south carolina. those are the voters on super tuesday. those are the voters throughout march. those are the voters who are not reflective in iowa. if he does happen to win iowa, which i will say we have yet a ways to go, it will give him a spring boar

art expressing concerned as long as he stuck at 5% in national polls like quinnipiac in monmouth. >> the both of you as a clear front runner and michael bloomberg despite all the ads and millions of dollars, 5%. but what does that tell you about what democrats are looking for? >> michael, keep spending. >> also joking about his reverence for his former colleague in this state, harry reid. and big issue in nevada, storing nuclear waste. biden guaranteed he never would do that here because harry reid would come back and grabbed him by the neck. bret? >> bret: peter doocy, thanks. accused offender harvey weinstein has been increased from $1 million to $5 million. follows allegations that he also tonight, word of a sentiment between weinstein and the board of his bankrupt film studio, and also dozens of alleged sexual misconduct videos don't make victims. the deal with total $25 million to more than 30 actresses and former employees engaged in lawsuits. not to a story about a government takeover that republicans and conservatives are apparently fully supportive. it involves an essential

this is a quinnipiac national poll. should the president be impeached and removed from office? now and in november exactly the same. no. now and in november, the no up a little bit but essentially the same. you have the debate in the judicial committee, the public seems not to budge. you look at key battleground states and that's what makes the president emboldened. look at wisconsin, 40 35ers. 52% no. >> the white house, the campaign and the president himself leading this, so his supporters are following along. but this is one of the things what speaker pelosi, when she was very reluctant to do this from the beginning, she was hoping for it to be a bipartisan event. that is now not going to happen. we probably could have seen or predicted that because there is no such thing, really, in this era of washington bipartisan. but it is those voters in the middle who are paying attention. you are absolutely right in terms of reading this out what this means for november. nobody has any idea what this means and it's the voters in the middle who decide every election, but this is a mon

suggests an interesting take on why impeachment is important but another poll going into next year, the quinnipiac poll, are you better off now, the question people are always asked before they head to the ballot box, 57% better off financially than they were in 2016, 22% say words are, 19% say the same. my math is not great but 76%, the same or better. how do democrats run against that? >> hard to run against an incumbent president, particularly an incumbent president who has a good record. we saw the jobs report coming out blowing out of the water any expectations on new jobs, wage growth, we are seeing the trickle-down of lower income demographics and it will be tough for anyone to try to take our president in that environment little in an environment where all we are talking about is impeachment, this is an unforced error by the democrats, a politically and savvy move and it is taking all the oxygen out of the room as relates to the presidential race right now. >> whether it is a democrat or republican in the white house when there's a good economy is tough to make a good run at the white hous

. >> trace: i want to put these on the screen, quinnipiac's latest poll, 45% the president should be impeached, 48% say that he does not or should not be impeached. cnn had different numbers a day earlier, 50% saying yes with 43% saying don't think so. he last response that quickly? >> in the swing districts, the democrats are losing ground with independents and moderate democrats. they are in a really tough plac place. when i think you for your insight, we appreciate it. a couple of accused killers among some teenagers who escaped juvenile detention and police say these teams are trouble. also, developing this afternoon, word of a shoot-out inside a high school. reports of a student and an officer exchanging fire. from all the journalists of fox news, this is fox news reporting from new york. on a snowy afternoon. lots of ink. print about... this many pages. the epson ecotank. just fill and chill. thouwhich is breast cancer metastthat has spreadcer, to other parts of the body, are living in the moment and taking ibrance. ibrance with an aromatase inhibitor is for postmenopausal wome

this is the quinnipiac poll. but the cnn poll shows she's at 2%, less than 1% nationally from the latest "q" poll and south carolina, less than 1%. has she made an effort to try to grow those numbers as we've seen from the mayor? >> that's a loaded question. i thought she had a lot of swag and i thought she won the debate. that's first. however, when you look at that stage, i treat it like a really bad spades hand. it's like one and a possible of individuals who can actually go out and secure african-american votes. that's joe biden being the one and the possible being bernie sanders. the other individuals on the stage, the other four corners elizabeth warren, pete buttigieg, amy klobuchar, and andrew yang just haven't shown the ability, the relationships to garner that essential support. we were talking about the poll earlier. the fact is what i focus on with the democratic party and winning the next election, there were 44 million who voted for barack obama. i'm not sure amy klobuchar, pete buttigieg, elizabeth

quinnipiac poll, 45% say impeach and remove. 46% say so in the npr, pbs marist poll. 50% in a fox news poll. you see a narrow band between 45 and 50%. that's where we have been in the story on impeachment. it is nearly half the country that wants to see the president removed from office. but it is not a growing number. the president's team takes solace in that. >> what does it mean for the president's re-election campaign? >> it is dangerous to think there's a huge impact. that presidential election campaign is nearly a year away. news cycles move really fast. it will be curious to see if voters have this top of mind. one clue that it is not having huge impact now, look at the general election matchups fox did in their poll. this election is not until next november. you see donald trump is from 40% of vote to 45% of vote, depending which democrat he's up against. that's about where he has been throughout this entire 2019. his number hasn't moved that much before impeachment, during impeachment, right now on the precipice of the vote. >> the president sees this is a fox poll, he is not

a new quinnipiac university poll shows 45% of voters think president trump should be impeached and removed from office while 48% think he should not be, let's bring in wall street journal karl rove, he served as senior adviser to president george w. bush. karl, welcome, and the polling numbers seem fixed even though not moving, even though impeachment now seems inevitable, how do you read the public opinion on this? >> well, you put it right, it's closely divided and unchanging before shenanigans began, if you wanted the president impeached, you till want him impeached. if you don't want him to impeach, you are stuck in place. small group of people who are capable of switching opinions with regard to the president, whether or not they end up in his camp or the democratic presidential candidates' camp in november depends less on what happens in front of the judiciary committee and what happens in the senate trial. i think it depends more on whom the democrats nominate for president and whether or not donald trump can disqualify them or whether that individual can somehow say i can unit the

. >> laura: as an example, a new quinnipiac poll, th 51% oppose impeachment. it's the first time since house speaker pelosi announced the inquiry that more than half of the voters say trump shouldn't be impeached. scott, is this a confirmation here that this is -- again, you put adam schiff and charge of this, he went off the rails. >> it has proved that the jobs report last week matters more than the slideshow in washington. the economy is always part of the impeachment debate. all due respect to market, clinton wouldn't have survived his impeachment if he had a terrible economy. richard nixon was forced from office partly because of watergate and partly because of a terrible economy. what this means right now for the president, he has to focus on the policies, keeping the economy going. that's what voters care about, they don't want to get caught up in partisan political stuff. >> laura: after introducing all two of the of impeachment, suddenly, the democrats decided this whole trade thing that has been around for 13 months that was painstakingly negotiated

greets with undecided african-american voters, a group that is giving him a 0% according to a recent quinnipiac poll. we were at one of his events earlier today where he was trying to apply his experience as the south bend mayors to the struggles they have had for generations and more rural parts of south carolina but one of the most influential african-american democratic leaders in south carolina has sized up the entire field and he has decided to back somebody who is not even computing, steve benjamin tells "the washington post" he is for michael bloomberg because he likes that bloomberg puts his money where his mouth is. >> dana: there we go, we will see how that develops. thank you, peter doocy. brand-new details on the brutal murder of nine americans in mexico last month, the clues that lead to the suspect, we have an update on the investigation next. >> dana: fox news alert, a major shake-up in the windy city, police superintendent was unexpectedly fire today just weeks before he was set to retire. says johnson misled the public after he was found passed out at his car in october. >> edd

. >>> a brand new quinnipiac poll shows former vice president joe biden expanding his overall lead over the democratic field. 30% of support among democratic and independent voters. this is nationally. senators elizabeth warren and bernie sanders are running neck in neck for second place with 17 and 16%. joining us now is andrew gill em cnn political commentator and former florida political candidate. great to see you. >> good morning, you all. >> have you been surprised by joe biden's steadiness in the polls? >> we learned the lesson after probably the first debate when he got taken on in the debate stage and came out, you know, as good if not better even after that, and that trend has kind of continued. obviously for joe biden this is a good poll. obviously the one cautionary note is it is a national poll, and we've got iowa and new hampshire and nevada and south carolina to come before, and if you look back to 2004, john kerry was not leading at this point in iowa. if you look in 2008, barack obama wasn't leading at this point. that's not to say the same will be true for joe biden, b

new polls coming in, quinnipiac, trump's best job approval rating ever. cnn poll, support for impeachment dropping, including double-digit drops among democrats. "usa today," new poll, trump beating all his top democrat rivals. now democrats now allege, trump committed multiple federal crimes including bribery and wire fraud charges? but they are not spelled out in the articles of impeachment. we debate what that's all about tonight. president trump hitting back, ripping into democrats, demanding they drop impeachment in fiery picks-page letter to house speaker nancy pelosi. this coming in, house judiciary democrats demanding a d.c. federal court help them get grand jury materials from the mueller probe to continue 24/7 impeachment after this initial go round. democrats and authoritative rhetoric that falls apart in the sunlight of facts. we'll show you what jerry nadler emphatically declared was true last year about carter page and the steele dossier. the 2020 democrat field is in turmoil. senator elizabeth warren now appearing to back drag on her all-in

a poll last week, the quinnipiac poll, 53% of americans say their personal financial situations getting better since donald trump got elected. this summer, there was a poll, the marist poll asked, is the economy working for you personally? two-thirds of americans and said yes. in every democratic group super majority, nonwhites, people without a college education, independence, urban voters, small-town voters, rural voters, the only people who disagreed, the majority disagreed? were democratic women and people who are super liberal. inside the liberal bubble which the democrats have it, the economy is doing badly. for everybody else, it's doing great. when you are campaigning against the experience of the voters, you probably are not going to win. >> shannon: quick answer for you both, who's the next to leave the field question mike leslie, you first. >> the next to leave the field? i would say... who showed who should? i'm going to say tom steyer. because if you look at percentages, he's not there. he keeps writing a check. >> shannon: and marc? >> the one who is not is andrew yang. i'

a recent quinnipiac poll shows michael bloomberg is currently fourth in the democratic field in terms of black support, ahead of others, but he's nearly 50 points away from joe biden. how does your boss plan to cut into that lead? >> i think there are a few things. he's one of the most decent public servants i've met. he's been doing this a long time. you did vastly more than you just said. mike got up last week to speak in front of a group of democrats and the guy who introduced him said i'm from new york, i grew up in new york, i was there when michael bloomberg took office. he saved new york from rudy giuliani in 2001, and, boy, i hope he saves the country from rudy giuliani today. there was a real change that happened. listen, there's been a lot of focus on stop and frisk practice that michael bloomberg ended before he left office. but mike working with you and others also reduced incarceration by 39% in new york city while it rose 6% nationally. he reduced juvenile detention by half. and he created the ymi, the first city program really focused on african-american youth who were
