Following Not-Guilty Plea, What's Next for Bolton?

Together yesterday -- divided today: House Democrats are unanimous in condemning President Trump's racist attacks on four minority women. But there is a big split in the Democratic Caucus today as one Liberal member forces a vote on an impeachment resolution.

Plus, the President's constant efforts to stoke resentment over race and immigration was a big reason Republicans got crushed in the 2018 midterms, especially among suburban women. So why does he think it is the recipe for re-election success in 2020?

And the House debate over the President's racist tweets was fiercely partisan -- and unruly. So much so the Congressman presiding over the debate got up and walked away.

Today's Panel: Seung Min Kim with The Washington Post, Heather Caygle with POLITICO, Catherine Lucey with The Wall Street Journal, and Jackie Kucinich with The Daily Beast.

Also on the Program: CNN's Manu Raju and Joan Biskupic, and Presidential Historian Tim Naftali.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy
