Donald Trump

Lieutenant Mark Hertling, Ambassador Michael McFaul, thank you both.

Coming up, Donald Trump's poll numbers are plummeting, gas prices are rising, and it sure looks like a blue wave is a-coming.

So what did Trump do today?

He signed an unconstitutional executive order to seize power over our elections.

Roy Cooper is the former governor of North Carolina.

Now he's trying to flip a red state, at least a red Senate seat, blue.

He joins us next.

While we don't know yet, at least, exactly how high the price tag of Donald Trump's war with Iran ultimately will be, we do know that as of day six, the war was costing nearly $2 billion a day.

Today is day 32.

I'll let you do the math.

And given that enormous investment, it's only right to ask, what exactly are American taxpayers getting in return?

Besides, say, the economic pain of skyrocketing gas prices, a gallon of gas in the United States now costs an average, an average of $4, the highest price in four years.

Go to any gas station in your area right now, and I bet you can find people like these folks down in Port St.

Lucie, Florida, who spoke to MSNOW's Alex David earlier today.

State of our economy right now is a tragedy.

The Trump administration is either blissfully unaware of that fact or flat out ignoring it because this was what Secretary of State Marco Rubio said yesterday with a straight face.

Maybe someone should let Marco know that as we speak, Republicans are considering taking billions of dollars away from America's health care to fund Trump's war with Iran.

The fact is, with each passing day, people are feeling the painful impacts of this war, and Trump is hemorrhaging support, which may explain why earlier today Trump signed an executive order attempting what amounts to a complete federal takeover of voting by mail in this country.

Joining me now is former North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper.

He's now the Democratic candidate for the United States Senate.
