Interviews with: Vivek Ramaswamy, Chris Christie, Chris Murphy
About this episode
First: As Donald Trump faces new charges with the potential for even more, he flexes his power over his party.
Next: Republican presidential hopefuls take their message to key early states, but can they overtake the frontrunner without taking him on? 2024 candidates Vivek Ramaswamy and Chris Christie weigh in.
Then: Is age just a number? Renewed concerns about aging political leaders. Candidates on both sides say it's time for a fresh start. What does the American public think? Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy shares his thoughts.
Plus: the panel discusses Republican candidates' reluctance to take on Donald Trump directly, as well as President Biden's decision to acknowledge his seventh grandchild for the first time.
