Synopsis
With negotiations on border security underway on Capitol Hill, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) explains his push to prioritize changes to immigration policy over funding for Ukraine in a live, on set interview. From the other side of the aisle, Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) discusses Democrats' struggles to build enthusiasm in her state. Dingell also reacts to Republicans in the House formalizing an impeachment inquiry into President Biden and the Senate GOP's proposals on border security. Steve Kornacki introduces a new, county-level initiative called "The Deciders" and Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker speaks directly to Democratic voters in Michigan. Geoff Bennett, Matt Gorman, Courtney Kube and Jen Psaki unpack it all at the roundtable.
