of this lecture and the stakes couldn't be higher. the president and the former president, one stage two, very different visions for america's future. the cnn presidential debate tomorrow night at nine, live on cnn and streaming on max happening now, the final countdown to cns historic presidential debate with just one de to ago before president joe biden and former president donald trump go head-to-head right here in atlanta. >> we're getting do behind the scenes details and how the candidate let's hope to impress voters and attack one another we're also following a breaking story. the united states supreme court reportedly tips that's han briefly posting a draft ruling on a pivotal abortion case we're breaking down the apparent decision and how it was mistakenly released. welcome to our viewers here in the united states and around the world, i will flits you're in atlanta and year in the situation room
2:02 pm
we're coming to you live from cnn studios in atlanta, the back drop for the first debate between a sitting president and a former us president. in the history of this country, president joe biden and former president donald trump now in the final stages of their very different forms of preparation for tomorrow's critically important to be cnn's political team is here in force, working hey, there are sources just ahead of this unprecedented event kristen holmes, i want to start with you. you've got some new reporting. i take it on the trump team's plans on how they're going about what's good, what's about to happen? >> yeah, we were talking a lot about the format and recent days and how this would affect whether it be donald trump or president joe biden. and one of the things that i had noted pressed was a real shift in how the trump team was discussing the format. now of course unsurprisingly, they were complaining about it originally talking about how this was actually going to hurt donald
2:03 pm
trump because he didn't have an audience to work off of, of that muted mics might hurt him. but now what i've started to hear from the trump team is that they're hoping that this act actually helps him talking about this idea that particularly because there is no audience that donald trump can't get distracted. i mean, what we have seen over and over again in these various rallies is donald trump really feeding off of his base, feeding off of there, sometimes enthusiasm to go on these rants, which is exactly the a set of what they want donald trump doing, what they really want donald trump to do is to focus on three key issues. the economy, particularly inflation immigration, and crime. because if he look at recent polling, those are the areas in which she outperforms president joe biden. so even if there are questions and they are preparing them for questions on abortion or on democracy, what they want him to do is figure out how to pivot to those three to those three issues and what they're hoping is that this lack of audience will help with that, isn't there a possibility though that if his mic is muted, he'll get angry
2:04 pm
and that hill took over a muted mike and could make it worse than they than they want, rather than calm down. it could read thema well has been interesting to see the reflection that donald trump has done something that we don't often see from the former president of watching old clips of himself, you actually said and a brother candidate interview with the washington examiner that he thought he interrupted joe biden too much, right? in 2020. so clearly something that he is paying attention to know whether or not that stops him. obviously, no one can control donald trump. no one can say they will, but it's clearly something is paying attention to mj. >> you have some new reporting on by advisers who have been watching trump and what trump has been saying in recent days. yeah. i mean, the biden team has essentially been watching really closely everything that kristen just laid out all of the expectations setting, but they've been doing including really downplaying how much debate prep they've actually been doing. they're not spending a lot of time on debate prep. there are no formal sessions. they basically think that none of that is
2:05 pm
true. they actually believe that on thursday night, but trump version that we will end up seeing could end up being the most prepared that donald trump has ever been heading into a debate. one adviser i was talking to was making note of the fact that trump even commented recently on watching and seeing and making notes on when president biden, when he was vice president going up against paul ryan. so that's shows you what the biden team is actually expecting. they expect it to be more prepared perhaps than we've ever seen him. they're also very attuned to the fact that they have now up the expectations for president biden after months of saying he's not physically all there. he's not mentally all they are now all of a sudden in his book, to be a formidable candidate on the debate stage, i will say in the final sort of ours as we head into tomorrow, it is really about fine tuning those details. they are in mock debate sessions at they have the president's lawyer at behind the podium standing next to the president, doing the full run-throughs and we know from speaking to a it's at the
2:06 pm
experience that they want to give the president, is that having him? experienced everything that might come up in those 90 minutes jeff zeleny, what are the stakes hi, i mean, this isn't hyperbole to say it historic setting, but the history books don't offer a lot of examples because we've never seen this before. but the reason that this debate is the earliest and presidential campaign history is because both sides see you an imperative here to kind of up in this race to unstick this race of us. but for president biden, i think beyond anything to show that he is not only in in-control, a strong leader, but he is capable and fit to serve a second term. that is one of the questions when you talk to democratic voters and others how he doing? so i think his appearance is going to be an his stamina will be central to this, but it's also his record. he's done many debates over the course of his time, but never won like this. never one we're his sort of own
2:07 pm
stewardship and record of the economy of inflation is going to be agenda item a here. so yes, i'm told by one adviser he wants to remind people what the trump presidency was like. sort of chaotic and the like. but also, he'll be defending his own record, which he hasn't done. a lot of. so when for him is looking strong for i think for for the former president, a win for him is being calm and saying, look, are you better off than you were at the beginning of my term or right now? economically speaking? >> yeah. i'm talking to a biden adviser. i think one of the things that they really want to do is make the case that donald trump doesn't deserve to be president of the united states, period that's it. he doesn't deserve it. look at who he is felony convictions, whatever look at what he's done look at what he says he's going to do in the
2:08 pm
future because he hasn't kept it as seek great and they want biden to make the case that this is not somebody deserving of the highest office in the land, and that they, they want to do that in a way that points out exactly what. donald trump has been talking about, which perhaps people haven't been paying that much attention to, right? and so they're going gonna they're gonna raise it. look at this is what he says, mass deportations. this so i think it's kind of one of his challenges which is to say, this man doesn't deserve to be in the oval office kristen i know that trump made some rather controversial comments to a black business leaders about his mug shot. >> talk about that. yeah, i mean, this is something he is that kind of before, just not directly. two black business layers, but he has said it in rally is for two things can be true at ones which are as often the case when it comes to donald trump. he is seeing a
2:09 pm
spike. obviously, that he's not going to win over black voters in total, but he is seeing a spike among minority voters, particularly black and latino voters. now that is a true part of this, but the other part of this is what he is saying in a tree tribute to that spike which we heard today. so let's take a listen to that it's just a terrible thing. >> it's weaponization and it comes out of the white house even when it city and state comes out of the white house in order to attack a political opponent but since that happened, the black support, i think by representatives will tell you this to black support has gone through the roof, i guess they occur waited two problems that they've had but since this has happened, like the mug shot, the mug shot is the best set obviously these are controversial on america because he is equating himself to what has been persecution of african americans for decades in the united states of america and saying that his mug shot over his legal crimes are his legal problems are linked to
2:10 pm
them. >> so obviously a controversial remark, something he clearly believes to be true. but again, they are seeing some kind of movement within the black community in terms of voters he himself is equating it to this in glory. >> what's your reaction well, i think it's absurd. >> i mean, i think what he's saying is that black voters can relate to criminality that they look at this mug shot and they say, oh, yeah, i can i can relate to that felonies. yeah. oh, yeah. i can relate to that. i'm sure i've been unjustly convicted of things in my own life and i think that it's insulting to be honest, to the black community and i obviously, trump doesn't mean for it to be insulting because he's looking for black support. but it is incredibly insulting to say to black voters, oh, yeah, this is something maybe you can relate to and that's why my numbers
2:11 pm
are going up all right. there's a lot going on and we're only just getting started this our thanks to all of you coming up. the moderator of the first trump biden debate back in 2020, see it as chris wallace joins us live to this discuss the challenges of keeping the candidates on topic. after that famously chaotic face-off and the u.s supreme court appears poised to side with the biden the administration in a major abortion case. we have details on the premature reveal of the decision. we're live here in atlanta and you're in the situation to bait like in america, as biden and trump meet only cnn has complete coverage with unrivaled access and exclusive pre and post of beit analysis follows cnn for every countless moment followed debate night in america tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. one second. grandma disguise going to buy my car. >> okay. do you need carbonic

2:16 pm
>> right now, let's take a deeper dive into the rules for this upcoming debate that both candidates have agreed to. your cnn's fill mattingly welcome to the set of the cnn presidential debate. >> we want to give our viewers a sense of the rules of the debate so that when they watch it, they can understand how president biden and president trump will be engaging with each other tomorrow night just after 9:00 p.m. eastern, president biden will enter from the right side of your screen. president trump will enter from the left side of your screen. the podiums are eight feet apart, directly across from them. the moderators, cnn's jake tapper, and dana bash. now a reminder this is a television studio. there's no audience candidates will have two minutes to answer questions and one minute for responses and rebuttals. at the moderators discretion, there may be an additional minute for follow-ups, clarifications, or responses. so how does it candidate know how much time is left to speak? attached to the cameras in the studio and in the candidates field of view or the timing lights when the light show yellow, there are 15 seconds left and it candidates
2:17 pm
answer or response. when the lights flash red, there are five seconds left, and when the display is solid red the time is up at that point, the candidates microphone will be turned off and the other candidate will have their microphone turned on. my colleague victor blackwell has more on that thank you, phil. >> if we go behind the podiums, you can see two green lights when they're on, they signal to the candidate his microphone is on when the green lights are off, they signal to the candidate. his microphone is off. now i want to give you a sense of what it will look like for viewers at home. if a candidate whose microphone is off interrupts the candidate whose microphone is on. so i'm standing, get one podium, and i'll ask phil to come in and take the other podium. and so let's say i'm answering a question. my light is green and i'm speaking feels microphone is off and his green lights are not illuminated. he's going to interrupt me as i'm speaking. and this is what it will sound like. my volume remains constant while fills into russian can be difficult to understand let's try the
2:18 pm
opposite. >> my microphone is now on victors microphone is off and he's going to interrupt me my volume remains constant while victors interruption can be difficult to understand. a sentence production team has shared this demonstration with the campaign's earlier today, and we're sharing it with you, our viewers we're so everyone fully understands how tomorrow night will work. now, we should note by agreeing to participate in this debate, both campaigns and candidates have also agreed to buy by these rules. the cnn presidential debate airs live tomorrow night at 9:00 p.m. eastern phil mattingly and victor blackwell to both of you. thank you very much. let's talk a little bit more about what to expect tomorrow night with the moderator of the very first biden-trump debate back in 2020, cnn akre, chris wallace is joining me here in the situation room. chris, thanks very much. let me play a clip from that 2020 debate. hi to you and our viewers. no one little segment that happened he racist you just the worst,
2:19 pm
whereas america has ever had used the word smart all right so you said you went to delaware state, but you forgot the name of your college justice left. would you base and who is on your list? you don't you write, gentlemen, i think pack chris like that debate. this one is a critical moment in this presidential campaign. give us the stakes here. what's your assessment? >> oh, i think it's a normalise like consequential. i maybe more so for joe biden than donald trump. but whoever has a good night versus whoever has a bad night, it's gonna be a big deal and i say the biden because he's the one who asked for this early debate. this is the earliest debate ever had been september 19 of 1980. now, we're going to have one in june and i think that the reason the biden camp called for this is because in the swing states that were behind, they feel that they need to sharpen the contrast the
2:20 pm
emphasize the stakes are this rice and that there may be some trump amnesia. people may have forgotten some of the things that donald from did as president. and since he's been president, and they want to remind good point that a recent interview is, you know, with the washington examiner, trump's said this about the debate you moderated back in 2020 he said this, i'm quoting him now. i was very aggressive in the first one. the second one, i was different and i got great marks on the second one. so what kind of donald trump are you expecting to show up tomorrow well, it's interesting. >> it took them four years, but he finally admitted that he acted foolishly as a bullae brutally in the first debate, and that had heard him, it doesn't hurt biden. i think he thought if i just keep interrupting them, it's going to throw them off. but as i say, i'd heard trump not biden in the second debate, he let biden talk and biden makes mistakes of the zone and there was one famous moment in that second debate where biden said, i'm going to transition away from from oil and trump said a
2:21 pm
transition away from oil, hey, texas, i hope you're listening to that and i think that there who knows what's going to happen. but i think their plan going in is to let biden taught war, not at erupt, and then counterpunch when they think that he has depth done, what does it tell you about the fact that these two candidates are preparing? ferrying for this debate in very, very different ways. >> well, you know, biden is doing it the conventional way, although i have to say a week of preparation is pretty extreme, i've never heard he has been hunkered down at camp. yeah. with about a dozen people and i wonder there's such a thing as over preparation trump for whatever reason has never liked the idea of formal debates and somebody playing his opponent, people playing the moderators. he likes to just wing it and discuss things with people. that's just the trump style. if he does well tomorrow, it'll work. if it doesn't it'll be a bad idea. >> a biden clearly wanted this early debate to try to shake things up a bit in the polls
2:22 pm
that are ongoing right now, how does he do that? >> the talk is that he's going to be very forceful. this is coming from the white house very forceful in pointing out the differences between them. obviously on reproductive rights, on democracy and just behavior and conduct and integrity. and the fact that one of them is a convicted felon? yes, i'm sure trump will strike back and talk about hunter biden, but that's the sun that's not the man himself. so i just think they felt if we continue in this way will be in september and will still be behind, we need to shake this race up and one way the other for good or real for both of these guys. tomorrow night will shake things. i certainly will. and we'll of course, i'll be watching chris wallace. thank you very, very much and up next a big headline back in washington today. and what appears to be an accidental bombshell the united states supreme court, the high court, mistakenly posting a key document online, giving a major clue in one of the most closely

2:27 pm
budget reminder you smarter joan by morning. got it. >> got it, boss daughter, you got this. the cnn presidential debate tomorrow. >> net it live on cnn and streaming on max the breaking news from the u.s. supreme court, the justices appearing to side with the biden administration on a critical abortion case in an idaho according to bloomberg news, the court accidentally posted a draft of the major ruling on its website before for taking it down a critically important development. let's bring in cnn's senior supreme court analyst, joan biskupic. joan, what more can you tell us about this expected opinion and how
2:28 pm
this so-called accident may have happened sure. >> wolf. good to see you. we're down to the final days of this supreme court session. and this this decision is one of the ones we had been waiting for. and frankly, it looks like it's the real thing with probably some modifications that will occur over the next couple of days. but if indeed it is the real thing, and there's no reason to completely doubted it said idaho will not be able to enforce its ban on abortions for all women except if to prevent a death. what the justices did was ensure that a federal law that dates to 1986 that guarantees emergency room treatment for needy patients, including someone who might come in with complications from a pregnancy and require an abortion to preserve her health. that was where the split was. if an abortion can be done in emergency situations, as opposed to only
2:29 pm
to prevent death as idaho law said. now well, here's the key thing according to the draft opinion that's been put up by bloomberg news, it looks like the court's split six to three to dismiss the case. six justices said that they had intervened too early in this matter and indeed, the merits are still being resolved in lower court hearings. but this is while this is a win, as you noted in the introduction for the biden administration at this stage the liberal justices pointed out that this is no permanent victory for women women's reproductive rights, justice ketanji brown jackson according to a partial dissent, that was part of the opinion that bloomberg posted said that do not think of this as a victory while the court donalds and delays, women have this uncertainty over exactly how abortion bans nationwide our intersection with this
2:30 pm
guarantee of emergency room treatment. and let's just remind everyone that it was two years ago this month that the supreme court completely reversed constitutional abortion rights and several states, including idaho, enacted bands. it's one of 14 states. so there's a lot of uncertainty out there about whether this federal law can at least preserve some abortion access in emergency the room situations. and for now, at least things will stay idaho will allow that for women, but more to come down the road. wolf joan biskupic, thank you very much. i want to bring in a cnn legal analysts right now, carrie cordero and steve vladeck. carrie, we weren't supposed to learn about this ruling today. what's your reaction? well, if this really was just an accident that the court put it up, i mean, accidents do happen something like this is really unusual for
2:31 pm
the supreme court. >> but there was it was related opinion the dobbs opinion that was leaked and released early, so we'll see if the court actually releases it. the one thing i would say is the court just from a perspective of managing a mistake, the court issued a statement that said it would release the opinion in due course and i do think that from a perspective of judging something like this, if they've made a mistake and they know that they're going to release the opinion tomorrow or friday or monday, then i think the court should just say that steve as joan reported, that certainly leaves a lot of uncertainty about emergency abortion care, doesn't it it. >> sure. does wolf and i think it's really important to distinguish between what's going to be true once this ruling comes down officially in idaho, which is, as joan says, if you are pregnant and have an emergency, you can go to your emergency room and doctors will
2:32 pm
follow the federal rule wolf versus states like texas, where this ruling by dismissing the case won't have any effect and where it is still the law based on a separate lawsuit that is still pending in texas that actually doctors cannot perform emergency abortions except when necessary to save a life life of the pregnant woman. so wolfe, i think we have to be very careful about what this means. all that the supreme court seems to be doing. if this is the rule and were get is kicking the can down the road maybe six months, maybe a year. not coincidentally to the far side of the presidential election, where the only folks who will benefit in the short term our pregnant woman in idaho in every other state in the country. the laws still going to be pretty complicated about when if your state has an abortion ban your nevertheless eligible for emergency medical treatment. this ruling is not going to resolve any of that interesting, carrie, we're still waiting on the supreme court opinions on trump
2:33 pm
immunity and january 6 obstruction charges. what are the implications for trump and indeed for the country? >> well, there there are enormous and both of those cases, but for different reasons. so the immunity case is relevant to president trump because if he were to win that case, then the january 6 federal january 6 charges against him would be dropped. it also was important, not just to hint, but for the institution of the present i didn't see the obstruction case is also very important from the perspective of it would if the decision were to go against the use of the obstruction charge in the way that the justice department has prosecuted it, it would affect former president from by having the charges against him go away. and it would affect potentially hundreds of january 6 defendants. so a ruling against the government in that case really would be something
2:34 pm
against how the justice department has prosecuted many of the january 6 cases and steve, as you know, these are opinions with major major political implications at a time when the court itself has delt with a series of scandals i think that's right, wealth and part of i think what is so interesting about this glitch the opinion that apparently was posted by accident today is worth it suggests that the opinion was ready to be handed down and it begs the question, why didn't the court actually just release it today? what that suggests wealth is something that you and i have talked about before which is that maybe the justices actually are a little bit strategic, not just about what they're saying in these decisions, but about when they're coming down, maybe there are well aware that the first presidential debate is tomorrow night. and so we're not going to get an immunity rule and aura generate six ruling tomorrow, maybe not even
2:35 pm
friday. and what that really underscores wolf is that this is an institution that even though it says, even though it's swears six ways from sunday, that it's above politics is actually right in the middle of it. and maybe the more than it were to be candid about that, the easier it would be to see how its decisions should and shouldn't not been shaping our political debates steve vladeck and carrie cordero to both of you. >> thank you very much. just ahead with just hours until cnn's historic presidential debate will take a closer look at some of the most memorable moments in past debates and the impact they had on the race and senator i served with jack kennedy. >> i knew jack kennedy jack kennedy was a friend of mine senator, you're no jack kennedy the most anticipated moment the selection and the stakes couldn't be higher. >> the president and the former president, one stage two, very

where president biden and former president trump will face off tomorrow night. >> it will be a new chapter in modern political history. that's featured quite a few memorable debates over these many years cnn's bryan todd reports wolf so much debate history has been made in moments that no one saw coming tonight, we look at the most colorful moments in debate history. many of them involving mistakes made under an intense spotlight for more than 60 years. televised presidential debates have provided us with extraordinary, decisive moments, which often changed the tenor of the race. the candidates need to introduction september 1960, in the very first televised presidential debate, richard nixon, who was ill, was visibly sweating compared to his cool and youthful opponent, john f. kennedy, when the two were viewed side-by-side. and you ask yourself, who's finger would you like to be on the nuclear button? it began clearly you didn't want the sweaty guy from california in 1984, ronald reagan than
2:41 pm
73-years-old, used humor to definitely deflect concerns about his age in a debate with walter mondale, i am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience the effect was magical and politically devastating for walter mondale most of those defining moments came with no warning or calculation. >> a bad moment in a debate can hurt you significantly more than a good moment can help you in the vice presidential debate in 1988, dan quayle characterized himself as a republican version of a young john kennedy, which teed up his opponent, lloyd bentsen, perfectly. senator i served with jack kennedy. i knew check kennedy jack kennedy was a friend of mine senator, you're no, jack kennedy? >> that election season, benson's running mate, michael dukakis in his debate with george hw bush, was asked a
2:42 pm
fateful question referencing his wife by cnn's bernard shaw, governor. >> if kitty dukakis were raped and murdered would you favor and irrevocable death penalty for the killermy life. it was terrible. >> this was his opportunity to show humanity and instead, he made himself look like more of a humorless, emotionless robot than he had seen before. >> there were the wordless missteps and the body language gaps 1992, georgia hw bush, looking out of touch by glancing at his watch when an audience member spoke about the lagging economy is different, 2000 al gore audibly size differences and in another debate that year, gore gets a little too close to george w bush on stage any little tick abit that a candidate may have is something that voters could seize on and it could
2:43 pm
change the way they view the candidate if there are colorful moments like those in the debates coming up, analysts laura barron-lopez said, they may be less impactful than those past moments were because she says, so many voters have already made up their minds who they're going to vote for. and those moments, no matter how colorful they are, may simply not move the needle as much wolf ryan, thanks very much. >> lassa history in these debates. so let's discuss with presidential historian douglas brinkley, doug, thanks very leo presidential debates well, not to be like michael dukakis or richard nixon, you want to be comfortable in your own skin. >> you want to be loose enough to not feel like you're up tight. you've got your projecting. what's american people are going to have to live with for the next four years the clips you played were great. but one has to wonder why didn't nixon even agreed to do for debates with john f.
2:44 pm
kennedy? he was eight years of vice president for eisenhower he's the that's the first debate in us history, not just televise first presidential debate period, lincoln douglas sub 18 58 was about illinois and he gave kennedy the opening. i don't think without those, if nixon didn't debate, nixon probably would have won in 1960. i think histories can look on why are we doing this debate in the spring. so it's a big deal for cnn. it's a giant moment, but it we usually wait, wait till september for this, so we're gonna be looking out. also a lot of body language. now, people are going to be looking at those weird moments of eye rolls and strange gestures. and it's, it's been helpful wolf to see that the story of the microphones, that even though they're turned off, somebody could mumble or talk and it could create a distraction. 4, the other, so it's really a psychological warfare game between these two standing there with trump
2:45 pm
really seething that he has those 34 felony counts and blames biden for going after him as you know, this will be the first time a current and a former president actually debate. it's the earliest debate in recent memory, and it's a complete transformation of the usual debate format as you know, just how his story correct. doug, is this moment unbelievably historic. you can't hype up the importance of this for a couple of reasons. one is the rap on trump is izzy unhinged and mean spirited. we saw how terribly he did it at a previous debate when finally biden had to say, shut up man even, trump's admitted with chris wallace and others said he was like over the top. on the other hand, biden has been getting the he's not he's too old to be president wrap, so he needs to do what he did for the state of the union address and seemed to be really they're very present
2:46 pm
and he's had a lot of practice. i mean, he's not only practicing at camp david now, but all of his 30 plus years in the u.s senate and vice president and also both they're coming in with their a game with the biden hyper prepared and trump kind of winging it and being more about intuition and seizing them bowman douglas brinkley, thank you very much for that historic analysis. be sure to tune into cnn tomorrow night when president biden and former president trump face off in their first debate, moderated by my colleagues and friends, jake tapper and dana bash. it's at 9:00 p.m. eastern right here on cnn coming up a live report on day one of the espionage trial against american journalist evan gershkovich in russia assignments are going off and the tornado hit i'm thinking, i'm going to die and i thought
