BALDWIN: The United States government may be back open but the President just told "The Wall Street Journal" it's more likely than not there will not be a deal to avoid another shutdown, so it's up to this group of lawmakers to figure this out by February 15th when the government will run out of money again. The President gave odds on whether they'll succeed and he said, quote, I personally will think it's less than 50/50, but you have a lot of good people on that board. If the deal doesn't happen the President told "The Wall Street Journal" he will use his emergency powers to get a border wall built. Kaitlan, no denying the shutdown has hurt the President. I was reading over the weekend Mark Meadows was saying it's key to his investigation. You have the Mueller investigation. Even getting through the primary and now there's talk of some Republicans courting other Republicans to challenge him.</s>KAITLAN COLLINS, CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: And Larry Hogan.</s>BALDWIN: He's at the top of the list.</s>COLLINS: He is. That was the name that was toss around at the Republican national conference in New Mexico over the weekend. So that's something that's not being ruled out here at the White House. Because of course, the President did take a hit. Not just his base was upset believing he had caved to Nancy Pelosi's demands, but also moderate lawmakers, Republicans, are frustrated as well because they feel like they had the longest government shutdown in history and there's nothing to show for it. Now it's not even over yet either.
