that many voters have that there's this canyon between their community and washington. and there's a lot of frustration about the idea that washington is not listening to people and their every dave concerns. donald trump's candidacy for many of these voters has become a vehicle for those frustrations. and he has talked about it, whether it's been about the economy, whether it's been about immigration, whether it's national security. he has not offered real substantive positions, but instead he has offered clarity. he has defined what he thinks is the wrong approach by washington and offered really simple recommend dips. >> a lot of people in the beginning didn't believe he could it it, that he to have more substance, that the people in the republican party misjudged the anger of the people. >> and they really shouldn't have. >> absolutely. >> go ahead, kellyanne. >> they really shouldn't have because the three people who are the front-runners, marco rubio in 2010, ted cruz in 2012 and donald trump in 2015, what do they all have in common? they were the outsiders challenging the esta

and i interact with young people on a daily basis. it's clear they don't trust washington. >> i don't either, timothy. less than anybody maybe. >> it's a polarized environment and i feel hike a lot of that is because of our most recent two presidents. what tools will you bring to the table to able to work with people on both sides of the aisle? >> in manhattan i built a tremendous company. i built really a city on the west side of manhattan, goes from 72nd street to 59th street. hi to get zoning. i was told it was impossible. i bought the land inexpensively because people said it was impossible to ever get it done. ism got it zoned for an almost 6,000 unit job, thousands and thousands of parking spaces and it's been a tremendous success. they can a great job. to get that zoned and get that taken care of, you can negotiate anything. i just got the old post office on pennsylvania avenue. i'm building a hotel. every major company in the country wanted that hotel company and i got that. who did i get it from? the obama administration if you think about it, i had a great plan, i had a grea

carolina for 200 days at this point is because people view him as the one who can change washington. and i don't think that bush taking off his glasses or getting a little built more feisty is going to necessarily change his mind about that. >> what about tweeting something like this? this says "america." he later said he didn't know of the tweet but noted he had appeared at a high security firearm company in columbia, south carolina today. so what does this say about the bush campaign that he's trying to do something? what is he trying to do, bakari? especially considering what happened in charleston. >> i don't know what he's trying to do with that. i think he's throwing anything against the wall to see if it sticks. i think that was a pretty tasteless tweet. he was 90 miles away from where we had the massacre nap tweet was inappropriate. i expect an apology from that camp tomorrow. >> and, by the way, that's his name engraved on the gun. >> i understand where he was. i am a concealed weapons holder in south carolina. i understand the culture. but right now that tweet i feel just being

washington. if you're going to have a problem with them, what are you going to say to them as president to get them on board so we can get legislation passed? >> it's a great question, robert, thank you for asking it. the reason why that is is simple. it's not that i speak with ak lack of civility or respect. you've seen in this presidential campaign as other os insult me or impugn my integrity, i don't respond in kind. i have not attacked or inassaulted my colleagues in the senate, democratic or republican. i'll tell you why they say ted is unlikable in washington. because i'm actually honoring the commitments that i made to the men and women who elected me. for example, on planned parenthood, i led the fight for to us use the budgetary power of congress to stop giving $500 million to planned parenthood. the republican leadership wanted to have a show vote, lose the show vote and then fund all of obama's agenda including planned parenthood. what's unlikable is when you stand up and say how about we do what we said we would do. when i stood up and led the fight against the rub

taking aim at each other. all of washington preparing to do battle over the supreme court. what will all of this mean in novemb november? we'll talk about politics with hue hue et. a veteran of the white house council, council office who also served two attorneys general. my goodness! i've gotten that out. i'm also very jealous you're in california this evening. hue straight to it. valentine's weekend is over. no love lost between cruz and trump. here's what happened on saturday night. look at this. >> this guy will say anything. nasty guy. i know why he doesn't have one endorsement from any of miss colleagues. >> pick from the buffet there. >> it is fairly remarkable to see donald defending ben after he compared him to a child molester. donald has a weird pattern. when you point to his own record he screams "liar, liar" liar." >> was it me or do you think saturday night was nastier than before? new high new low? >> new level of intensity. i will say this. three polls came out today allegedly taken on sunday, a bad polling day, but nevertheless, the day after the debate. donald trump

talk about it more. here it is. >> i went to washington, following my mother's advice. i've been in this legislature before that at the age of 26. and how did i get elected? i didn't have anybody for me. we just got an army of people, and many women who left their kitchens to go out and go door to door and put yard signs up for me all the way back when things were different. now you call homes and everybody is out working. but at that time, early days, it was an army of the women that really helped me to get elected to the state senate. >> who has a problem with that? do you have a problem with that? >> no. i have a problem with the fact that he apologized. i think that shows that he is a wimp. >> i don't know if he really apologized. >> i think he is bound to political correctness. he didn't say anything wrong. this is 40 years ago and stay at home moms helped him get elected to congress. >> he did say he was sorry. does that change anything listening to it in context? >> no. if you listen to the woman who asked the question next. she said i'll be voting for you but i won't be comi

going to go to washington and make deals. that is the opposite of the appeal that ted cruz has with the more conservative electorate that is maybe more in south carolina and elsewhere but maybe not so much here in new hampshire. >> by the way, you are in new hampshire, in manchester, so stay there. just wait for a moment, i'm going to bring in a man who might have a crystal ball, the best crystal ball in this business and that's hugh hewitt. it pains me to say this, hugh hewitt -- i'm just kidding. you called it. here's your prediction on sunday. >> ted wins the republicans, trump comes in second but marco rubio is a very close third. >> the polls had trump in the lead. why didn't he win? why were you right? >> i think i was right because of jeb, josh and john, three operative, jeff row, josh perry, john droguan who work for ted cruz who basically owned the internet and owned iowa. i told donald trump two weeks ago i thought ted cruz was going to win iowa and trump will win new hampshire. he has corey, his campaign manager up there. 180,000 republicans showed up, which broke every t

of the republican senators. your colleagues in washington. if you are going to have a problem with them, what are you going to say to them as president to get them on board so that we can get legislation passed? >> it's a great question, robert, thank you for asking it. >> let me focus on two levels, let me explain how we actually change the direction in washington. it's not that i speak with a lack of civility or respect, you have seen in the presidential campaign as other people insult me, i don't respond in kind. the bible talks about if someone treats you unkindly, repay them with kindness. it's like keeping coals on the top of their head. that is the standard i have tried to follow. i have not attacked my colleagues in the senate, democrat or republican. even if i disagree with them on the issues i'll tell you why they say ted is unlikable in washington. because i'm actually honoring the commitments that i made to the women and men who elected me. for example, on planned parenthood, i used the fight with the budgetary congress to stop giving funding. what the republican leader

politician. 70% of voters voted for an outsider candidate or someone who has never been in washington. they're tired of politicians. jeb bush says he's tired of politics too, but he's the stereotypical politician, so it's a confusing ad. >> do you think that was effective? >> i think it was very effective. one of the very best i've seen. this has nothing to do with political correctness. what donald trump said about john mccain and p.o.w.s, that's what turned me at that moment. i think this man is unfit. i think he's going to win new hampshire because there isn't enough time to cut into his lead. they're all fighting for second place. but frankly, that stuff isn't going to sell anymore now that voters are looking at these candidates more carefully and more closely. i think the ad is very effective and could cause some problems for donald trump. >> i'm wondering if you're looking at the outcome of iowa -- you saw that ad with jeb bush. the other candidates are saying hey, maybe we can slay the dragon. is it going to make a dent in donald trump's armor? >> the reason the result in iowa

. i appreciate it. >>> washington paying tribute to justice antonin scalia. more than 3,000 mourners, including members of congress. you are looking at live pictures now streaming by to view the casket. president obama and first lady michelle obama also paying their respects. that was earlier today. >>> a funeral mass for justice scalia will be held tomorrow at the basilica of the national shrine of the emaculate conseptsion. the yesterday's son, the reverend paul scalia will deliver the homily. cnn's coverage of justice scalia's funeral begins at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow with wolf blitzer and jake tapper. >>> when we come back, just hours to go until south carolina's republican primary. what do the voters think of all of this? we'll talk to two people who have been on the fence and see if they have made up their minds. make a dep-- vo: it happens so often...

highlighted he failed to unite washington. does this surprise you? >> no, it doesn't. what we're seeing is a very humble president who recognizes that at seven years into his term, there are still things he wishes he could have gotten. he wanted the language to be less visceral, the rancor to be turned down. each ceasees a bernie sanders campaign that has tapped into an angst. sometimes viv to step back and realize my language in this political discourse is not what it should be. i'm not sure how we got there. i think it weighs on barack obama's heart. >> you think sometimes you say things you shouldn't say or that you're too inflammatory? >> no, i don't necessarily think it's too inflammatory but we've begun to let our emotions cloud our better judgment. to me to harp back on another earlier segment, we were talking about african-american young men dieing in the street. those type of emotions build up and there's so many going on around us, i think we have to let cooler heads prevail. i think barack obama is a transformational president. this is something in his last few months that he coul

washington that there's a huge difference in electability. she at the end of the day is more likely to be elected if she is the nominee. i think that is one reason for the white house's embrace of her. >> gentlemen, thank you. nicholas, safe travels. see you soon. have a great weekend. >>> up next, donald trump threatening to sue ted cruz. is the threat real? we will talk about that next. they say you shouldn't spoil your kids. but your grandkids? how about front row seats to the best show in town? and that is why you invest. the best returns aren't just measured in dollars. td ameritrade®. every day women around the world spend millions of hours just collecting the water they need for their families. each limited edition stella artois chalice helps provide five years of clean water for someone in the developing world. my man, lemme guess who you're wearing... everyone's lookin' red carpet ready. toenail fungus!? whaaat?!? fight it! with jublia. jublia is a prescription medicine... ...used to treat toenail fungus. use jublia as instructed by your doctor. jublia is workin' it! most common

failed to unite washington. does this surprise you? >> no, it doesn't. i mean, what we're seeing is a very humble president who recognizes that at seven years into his term there are still some things that he wished he could have gotten. it's the epitome of the american dream. he wanted the language to be less visceral, the rancor to be toned down. and what he sees now is a bernie sanders campaign and a donald trump campaign which have tapped into an anxious, which have tapped into a worry. and all of you us, even myself included, sometimes i have to take a step back and realize my language in this political discourse is not what it should be. and i'm not absolutely certain how we got there. >> how so? >> but i know this is something that weighs on barack obama's heart. >> you think sometimes you say things you shouldn't say or too inflammatory? >> i don't necessarily think it's too inflammatory. but we've gone to let our emmotions cloud our better judgment. just for me to harp back on an earlier segment, we're talking about young african-american men dying in the street. and those ty
