Then Eric Tanenblatt, national fundraising chair for GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley talks to the hosts about her rise in the polls in Iowa and New Hampshire and describes how he believes she can wrestle the nomination away from Donald Trump or other Republican candidates.
Plus, Murphy and Nigut look at the recent Georgia Supreme Court ruling which blocks the new GOP-backed state law which created a commission to punish so-called rogue district attorneys.
