Thursday, March 5, 2020: Warren Quits 2020 Race But Isn't Ready to Endorse

Elizabeth Warren speaks outside her home after dropping out of the 2020 Democratic race, but says she will wait a while before endorsing anyone.

And, Chuck Schumer under fire: The Senate's top Democrat warns of payback if President Trump's Supreme court picks vote to roll back abortion rights, and the Senate's top Republican piles on after rebukes from the President and the Chief Justice.

Today's Panel: Maggie Haberman and Alex Burns with The New York Times, Phil Bump with The Washington Post and CNN's Athena Jones
