1:02 pm
november cnn white house correspondent arlette saenz joins us now are let, what is the president saying behind closed doors to reassure his donors? well, alison, it's clear president biden is looking for a bit of a course correction. you saw that in his fiery and impassioned speech yesterday on the campaign trail and raleigh, north carolina. and tonight, he is trying to assure donors that he is up for a second term. the president is currently in the hamptons. he stopped at a smaller a high-dollar donor a little bit earlier in the afternoon, and he is about to speak any moment now at another fundraiser that i'm told is expected to have around 200 people. it comes at a time that the biden campaign is trying to tout the fact that they raised $27 million between thursday and friday. but at the same time hey, there is significant a6 and concern among some in the democratic donor class who are concerned about what the path forward
1:03 pm
could look like for president biden if he were to remain in the race. of course, the president privately, there have been calls from some democrats urging the president and to reconsider that he potentially stepped down from the ticket so far the biden campaign really has been adamant that he is remaining in the race, that he plans to debate donald trump again in september. if that debate actually takes place. but there is significant pressure within the democratic party from lawmakers, from donors, and also just from some voters the reporters who were traveling with president biden in the motorcade said that as they passed a wound their way through the hamptons a little while ago, there were some signs that people said, please drop out for us and others have said, we love you, but it's time, it's unclear what the president's saw those signs, but it kind of paints the picture of the scene around the president at this moment as there are many in his party's still concerned about the state of the race if he were to remain at the top of the ticket, this afternoon, the dnc
1:04 pm
leadership held a call with some of his members to try to offer assurances to their members following that debates. but there are questions going forward for president biden of how he will chart out his campaign if he has to stay in the race following that debate performance, or what about the poles? >> we understand that democrats are spending this weekend conducting some poles to determine the level of damage that was done. what do we know? >> yeah, democrats are really eager to see what the long-term impact of president biden's debate performance will be there conducting polling as well as research to try to see how damaging that could be, not just to president biden being at the top of the ticket, but also others within the democratic party. if you think about the senate's trying to or democrats are trying to maintain their control in the senate. the house wants to win or democrats want to win back the house. and so these are all things that democrats are quite anxious about to see what the longer-term impacts could be. now, one long-term democratic
1:05 pm
adviser told cnn that they believes that the only way biden likely they would step down from this race is if he were presented with data showing that that debate performance and having him at the top of the ticket would significantly impact others, including in those house and senate races. so this is something that many democrats are eager to see a pan out over the course of the coming weeks to try to engage what that impact is for president biden and and other democrats after that debate let's on. >> thank you very much for all of that. joining me now to discuss this, or to republicans both of whom are backing joe biden for president. we have built crystal director of defending democracy together and editor at large of the bulwark and stuart stevens, senior advisor to the lincoln project she also wrote the book the conspiracy to end america, gentlemen, great to have you here, stewart, i read your piece in the new york times today you said that you're baffled by why democrats are panicking about president biden
1:06 pm
after that debate really yeah, look, i mean, this is kinda crazy to me. the question is, is joe biden up to being president? don't we have a big test. he has been president. he is president. he's one of the most successful presidents of the modern era. it just seems sort of ridiculous. she, one guy, he has a bad night when knighton, you ego. okay. we're going to wipe away all this evidence that we have in the past years because i just make a point that the big complaint that a lot of us have the overarching complaint is that donald trump is zaraa terrion who doesn't respect to will of the voters. okay. i think that's true. what does it say that millions and millions and millions of voters voted to nominate joe biden. and now a group because concern forget those voters we're going to decide who should be the next nominee. i mean, isn't that exactly the definition of authoritarianism unless you
1:07 pm
think that you have new information that you didn't have during the nominating process. >> and unless the debate revealed some new information, but bill, where are you on all of this? >> yeah, that's i think his job winds but a good president we owe a debt for having defeated donald trump. but if for being a a quite a good president, that doesn't mean he's owed another term the problem isn't what he's done over the last years or even recent months. it's what we saw there's the night we can't unsee it it wasn't just a bad debate. he didn't just have a subpar debate like obama did against mitt romney, which students, even as remembers very well in 2012, of course, obama bounce back from that because people thought as romney would have bounced back sub-par performance, they were both up to the job can we look people in the eye and say that joe biden? it's up to the job of being present for the next four years. i'm i'm for him. i'll go from against trump because he's not an authoritarian handy and he, the people around him will maintain the rule of law and so forth but we can do better and it's not authoritarian for brought
1:08 pm
for biden to choose, to choose to release his delegates and let them choose perfectly competent vice president or governor, or senator to replace him stop president biden reportedly reads the new york times. >> here's what he's reading this morning from their editorial board because they think it's better. i mean, bigger, i should say then one bad debate performance. they say, quote to serve his country, president biden should leave grace. he struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term. he struggled to respond to mr. trump's provocations. he struggled to hold mr. trump accountable for his lies, his failures, and his chilling plans, more than once, he struggled to make it to the end of a sentence what do you say you know, this reminds me of professional sports and say bill belichick lost a game. >> do you really think that he'd be calling up mad dog and asking for advice of sports fans what he should do this just isn't how politics works. the guy had a bad night. i have
1:09 pm
been in a lot of debate preps. i have seen people have terrible debate prep. i've seen bad debates it doesn't mean a thing if the person is out there on the stump, if he's out there campaigning and he's dealing with all these world leaders. so let me get this straight. so he's put together, i think we all would agree an extraordinary coalition to basically help save the world and ukraine and these leaders are dealing with them and could you put together that coalition if you were not up to being president no. you couldn't look. i i don't understand this sort of panic. i think it's up to the biden campaign. they're going to do i think the right thing, which is just put their heads down and keep going. you can't talk yourself out of something like this. talk your way out of 50 like this. you just have to keep going. and this is a presidential race. it was decided in june it would be the first time in american history
1:10 pm
bill, what do you think about that stewart and i was sports fans and to keep maybe more knowledgeable and i got a whole book about oh, miss football butt, sandy koufax was the greatest pitcher base. well, from what, 61 to 665 and 65, i was a fantastic fan of is is a little younger good. any retired because he couldn't keep pitching at that level there's nothing. so it doesn't prove i mean, that i think is the right analogy i mean, stewart, i think that what people saw was more than what people internalized watching that it didn't feel like an off night. >> it felt like someone who was more for in firm than they had last seen. and so i take your point that being a good debater is maybe not even relevant to being a good president. however, it, what they saw that night was a lack of, or a weakening i guess, of leadership and command and some other things that require that
1:11 pm
are present requires so i mean, how do you explain what you saw that night on thursday? >> isn't there something sort of off about the fact that we're talking about the joe biden get out of the race and not donald trump i mean, the way this debate was set up, donald trump had free reign to just constantly lie and how could you know, if you and i were debating and i started out by saying any here today with a convicted criminal who has been guilty of plagiarism repeatedly in her career, and everybody knows that and i'm obvious choice how would you respond you can say, well, that's not true. i mean, that's crazy. and then next question i go. i'm here with someone who was actually a russian agent. and everyone knows that it is a technique of authoritarians just to spew these constant stream of lives. and it is very difficult to deal with that in any sort of cogent way, because how do you say? well, that's
1:12 pm
crazy, that's not true i listen, i think that the president could have had a better night, could have dealt with it better. i expect he will next time but a guy who is a convicted felon who brags is out on bail, who brags about overturning roe v. wade and has this crazy idea that that was a majority opinion of the country who wants to cut taxes on billionaires who says that america is a third world country let that guy president of the united states. >> well, you believe, i mean, if you believe it's still a binary choice, as you know, many democrats are saying that bill biden should bow out so that there is someone on younger who takes his place, but hold that thought, gentlemen, because i also want to play something for you, bill that i think proves stewart's point. so hold that thought. we'll be right back. see you on the other side of a break
1:13 pm

1:18 pm
eligible for what i've been able to do with the with the covid excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with if we finally beat medicare when you get knocked down, you get back out the, depths the pandemic, where it is today, the strongest economy in the world okay, so that was friday. so are you comforted bill by that? i mean, i know that you said you're still going to vote for joe biden because you would not vote for donald trump. but would you prefer to see someone else step in a different democrat? >> yeah. because trump is not acceptable, he needs to be defeated. i think biden's it
1:19 pm
wasn't a performance. what we saw of biden on thursday night, it's going to put a cap on his ability to win over swing voters the voters, sarah lolo high, tried to get from republican three republican voters against trump his base will be loyal. i'm glad that president biden was give a good speech for the teleprompter to rally on friday. but what if what if that's the truth? what if the truth is sometimes the way he was thursday night, sometimes the way he was friday. is that good enough? is that good enough for the next four years? >> is it stored look we're rushing this conclusion here that this actually hurt joe biden. >> so far 101 pole, that was the morning console poll the show. joe biden going up one. i don't know if any of these various focus groups which are pretty sketchy, i think, but none of them showed some sort of that's desertion from joe biden. in fact, some i'm showed both going toward joe biden. i think that if you look at the history of here, i think bush went down. i was working for him in 2004. i think we went down five points after the
1:20 pm
first carried a bag. i think president obama went down five points total after the first debate. so let's see what get up so for this to be a disaster for the biden campaign, they have to certainly do more than what 789 points, to really think that's going to happen. i don't think so look, i it's perfectly natural to want something new. we never sell cars by saint look, just as good as last year. we haven't changed the thing we're americans were addicted to new. we love it. that's why the cheesecake factory as like 40 page menu, we won't options. i understand that. but this isn't some sort of fantasy football exercise that you can just draft somebody else we have a process. he was nominated but we also have a process if somebody needs to be replaced, it's a messy process. >> it's certainly not one that anybody i think any democrat really wants to what they have
1:21 pm
a strong bench, but you're saying that that's just for used to it. that's out of the question. >> no, i think it's ridiculous and i can also if joe biden was incapable of being president you would hear all of this from other world leaders. as you heard them gossiping about donald trump and what a moron and embarrassment he was. you would hear it from other senators, but say i met with this guy he did nobody was doing and we never have heard that never were basing this on 90 minutes where he had a really not good debate performance. okay. i get that point taken. but to rush and say, let's throw out these millions of votes. let's change this whole democratic process we're going to go back to some sort of smoke-filled room where you pick the al smith i don't know. i think it's just kinda nutty bill, one of the problems is that 50 million people tuned in to that bad debate
1:22 pm
performance. >> and so when the president seems more vital at rallies, he's not speaking to 50 million people. do you think that he can turn this around i think he could still win. >> i think he it's an uphill. it was already a little bit abdel now it's much more appeal, i think as puts a huge cap, i knew i don't disagree with seward. i'd be surprised to see huge movement right away in the debate. these things to end the poll, say six take time say again but i mean those. clips are there forever. and i think they'll put a real camp on his ability to win again, i mean, vice president harris is the vice president is stage. she takes over right now. if something happens to joe biden, is it that terrible to have it open convention which should be the favorite to be nominated, or like the governor whitmer or might be governor shapiro is that those people would have a better shot at defeating donald trump. in my view, it's due, i can say, well americans, they like new things. fair enough. but it's not like a used car i mean, we're asking asked to do something, select sort for the next four years based based on
1:23 pm
its current state. here's one thing i'll just saying people should go back and look at the biden-trump debates in 2020. we have a comparison. the same guy was there, trump's horrible. he's lying, he's a demagogue. he is a bully. look at joe biden handling in 2020. look at theirs store. it just go back to it the proof of concern would be precedent is are they being president at a high level and the answer is yes okay. i just want to make one point here. i have never seen a poll where any of these alternative candidates are defeating donald trump. i have seen polls for joe biden is this idea that we're going to take somebody off the bench put them in all of a sudden that's going to be better. what does that base don't it seems to me to be just sort of a fantasy i mean, we're into the eagleton
1:24 pm
mcgovern thing. we're going to dump somebody off a ticket. how did that work out look, i love broker conventions. the best man is one of my favorite films. i think it's fascinating, but it's just not how the world works now, and i think we have to just go about the business of making the case of fly. donald trump is just unqualified to be president. joe biden has proven he has been a successful president. any can be a successful president and look, there's no easy solution here. this is supposed to be hard i mean, my message that democrats would be just suck it up and go out there and fight harder. >> all right gentlemen, really interesting to get both of your perspectives today, bill crystal, stuart stevens. thank you thank you thanks and later tonight, if you missed the cnn presidential debate that we're talking so much about, you can catch a repeat performance of all the high and low lights
1:25 pm
that's at 9:00 p.m. eastern only on cnn. all right. president biden's debate performance did not just rattle american viewers. will tell you what world leaders are saying today. and we could soon see the first hurricane of the season will show you where it is right now assignments are going off. >> the tornado here you cannot out swim this. you cannot outrun it really is a terrifying experience. it is the stuff of nightmares you just here here it and feel it, nick eyes and my throat we're burning i'm thinking i'm going to die and i thought that was it. would earth with liev schreiber tomorrow farro, it nine on cnn thinking i'm thinking about her honeymoon, about africa so far hot air balloon rice when with elephants wait 34 to safari.

how much you can save i'm pete mundane at reagan national airport. this is cnn shock and dismay over president biden's debate performance this week reverberating around the world, several foreign diplomats tells cnn, debate was quote, hard to watch. >> and that trump quote eight biden alive here's cnn's nic
1:30 pm
robertson with a closer look at how us allies and adversaries are responding to thursday's debate i will get back to that in a moment. but first let's bring in cnn global affairs analyst and former defense secretary under president trump, mark esper, secretary esper, thanks so much for being here. i know that in the past, you have said you would not vote for donald trump in november because you're worried about his rash foreign policy ideas did biden's performance or anything thursday night changed your mind no not at all trump prevarication throughout the debate as we all know, but the bigger issue coming out of this, of course, was biden's performance and it was really tough to see troubling to see and i know you're gonna go to nick and cnn has had strong reporting on this issue, but we see foreign diplomats from across the road, europe, the
1:31 pm
middle east, asia, expressing their concerns as well. >> and i might add it was there before the debate also as i travel around the world and speak to foreign liters, a lot of concern about the trump presidency coming back, and a lot of concern about president biden's ability to beat him. and it's important note, alison is, you know president biden was done in the polls in the battleground states before the debate. and so i think one of the big, one, the big things coming out of this upcoming week, will be a word of the pole stand now and i think everybody is going to be looking very closely at those numbers. >> it's interesting, secretary, that you say that when you talk to foreign leaders that they're more concerned about a repeat donald trump performance than about president biden stamina. we do have that nic robertson package right now. so let's listen to it and i'll talk to you right afterwards. >> it has been in moscow state media lampoon president joe biden's debate performance? yes. but can all say nil while
1:32 pm
wet, i'm smith's loan congratulating him for not falling over criticizing him for what they called a 22nd freeze up saying he had trouble remembering who and where he was. if russia was gleeful europe was shocked newspapers agreeing democrats, panic, british tabloids, biden bombed even this cake from the populace. son joe, my toast in france, italy, germany headlines much the same greek and middle east newspapers, suggesting biden step aside leaders was silent. several met him two weeks ago at the g7 in italy where he also seems slow and kept them waiting. the growing reality for them. now, a donald trump redux in more dangerous times many of them will remember those bruising days, not just physically, but verb believed to his tone and
1:33 pm
topics on nato unchanged suggesting putin is europe's problem. well, i got them to put up hundreds of billions of dollars that has a bigger impact on them because of location, because we have an ocean in between i've never heard so much foolishness. this a guy who wants to get out of nato according to the kremlin president putin didn't stay up to watch the actual debate because i don't think you expect that the russian president could have set an alarm clock woken up in the early morning hours he will likely now be up to speed if only through the unfriendly filter have his own media. and likely pleased to trump who also hinted at cutting funding for ukraine potentially shortened his odds of winning the election israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu will also likely feel relieved a trump reelection, good for him, given what trump saying
1:34 pm
about israel. and you should let them go and let them finish the job and falsely accusing biden of tying israel's hands. and its fight against hamas. here yes, i want to do it. he's become like a palestinian, but like america substance, not the big takeaway overseas. everyone judging performance policy a worry for another day nic robertson, cnn london okay, so so secretary esper, we'll get to former president trump's claims that many leaders felt were dangerous in a moment. >> but about that, about the performance, about the stylistic points, about the leader is being concerned about president biden looking in front what about that? how how concerning is that to you it's very, very serious. >> i mean, if you're if you're a foreigner, an ally, a partner
1:35 pm
you're looking at this and you start questioning is, does he have the stamina to go another four years? and what you can't help but answer and say no we know what he's wrestling with. we we see it, unfortunately in our parents or grandparents and every day, every week, he's gonna get a little bit worse. and the question is, at a time when the world needs america's leader for sure in an era of great power competition where the autocracies of russia and china and iran and north korea are lining up against the western democracies american leadership matters and who's in charge, the commander in chief of the united states is also important. conversely, our adversaries, xi jinping, vladimir putin, as nick mentioned, and others are also looking at this and you have to ask yourself, do they see weakness? do they see a president who is not in charge and so to me, there's two sides of this coin. one is can, is present president biden, up to the task for another four years, whether or not he's going against president trump. and then the other question, the morning, more immediate one
1:36 pm
is where does this put him in the polls against trump because of the brace concerns about a return of trump to so what's the solution well, look again, it's very, very unfortunate what we're seeing, but we can't deny our eyes. what's going on and it's only going to get worse regrettably i think the democratic party has an opportunity here to move quickly to develop a process i think it would be the best thing for the country for president biden to step aside that hand off the torch to a new generation of leaders. democrats have a number of candidates, whether they're governors outside the current administration, he has people within the administration who are interested in running begin with kamala harris, but also commerce secretary raimondo transportation secretary buttigieg. i think they could put together a very robust filled and i've been saying for some time now, the party that puts puts out first a next-generation candidate will win this because polling after polling shows 60 to 70% of the
1:37 pm
american people want a new generation of leaders and i think they deserve that. and i think this is an opportunity for the democrats. and really another opportunity for president biden to lead by, by allying this transition happen quickly and gracefully and deliberately do you have a sense of. who would make donald trump's team most nervous i don't know that i would help or hurt any of the candidates, but my sense would be what the american people are looking for is somebody who is more moderate, far less progressive. >> and so i would look to some of the battleground state government qatar's who are, who are out there, who are performing well in their states, who may be poll well. but again, i think that's a democratic party to determine they need a process which, which would vet these individuals and come up with the conclusion that the delegates would vote for presumably, again, kamala harris would have to be on that list given her role as vice president. but i think it's a process, it has at this 0.67 weeks to play out to find that
1:38 pm
person. and again, i think not just a democratic party, but there are a lot of independence and some republicans who would welcome a next-generation, new-generation candidate from the democratic side and very quickly, secretary, while i have you, there were many claims former president trump made on thursday night. >> he says that russia would never ever made a ukraine. he says israel would never have been invaded in 1 million years by hamas, et cetera, et cetera, was or what was most concerning to you of what he said? >> well, individually, they are concerning, but the accumulation of it all is very concerning. it of course, paints us and more of an isolation is direction at a time we're as i said earlier, allison, we need american leadership on the world stage and so, that's what really struck me, when he, when he spoke, he was for, barricaded and on many issues that we counted there and i think we're only scratching the surface of an american foreign policy, not just be isolationists with regard to its partners and allies, but president trump

1:45 pm
probably 24 hours a day that's interesting because as you know, ben and his famous for using overhead heated rhetoric on vitriol, on his poem a gas. >> he talks about going on the attack. he talks about the war room, blah, blah, blah. so will he be able to be a big fish there will look, he probably has some regret. >> he didn't go in earlier because we're in an imaginary prison before you go and we don't get credit for it. also, he would have had a bigger impact on the election. how do you gotten it over with? so he has that regret. we have to understand the bureau of prisons is concerned about security of the institution, keeping costs down. there are understaffed at this prison for these reasons, they don't want any problems. okay. you have democrats and republicans agree on few things. they both agree the bop handled covid poorly. the epstein debacle and conspiracy. so if they think he's at risk of causing problems, they can just send him to segregation for 120 days. so you can expect some staff to be sympathetic towards him, certainly as a former lieutenant in the navy, veterans will welcome him but.
1:46 pm
they do not want problems and if he says things over the phone via email, of course, phone calls her recorded, emails are saved. he can call into his podcast from prison, as i did from federal prison in 2008, if anything, threatens security of the institution, they say have a nice day. we're sending you to segregation for 120 days in either a he wins whether he's insane segregation, or he serves this time in the regular compound. either way it benefits and advances his agenda. we're message oh, well, in that case, do you have advice for him for these four months? i, would advise him to what is success for him most people go to prison. they want to lay get through it, avoid problems, prove worthy at alum support of their family. i read where he said, i won't be exercising. i'm not hitting the weights. i'm not getting prison swollen he will be working other than sleeping, eating, and doing his prison job. he is going to be advancing his agenda. and my advice would be to understand the consequences that follow every decision on the inside.
1:47 pm
then as my business partner, michael santos, who served 26 years, encouraged me to do one every choice that follows defendant her stand, his goals, maybe different than the wardens goals. that much i can tell you he's supposed to be serving four months. >> is that still is that really four months or might he be able to lessen that with good behavior? >> no good time if you get sentenced to a year or less. additionally, because he was not sentenced to any term of supervision ironically, and unfortunately for him, he does not qualify for the first step act that president trump signed in late 2018. so he's going to serve 120 days, less than one day. he probably got for his arraignment 119 days he says that prison will not change him. is that possible? are there some people who sail through this experience and come out unchanged? >> absolutely there are people that go out unchanged and with what he's been through in his life, the ups and downs, the drama, the attention this will be a little blip in his life if anything, he'll probably use it to advance his agenda and to
1:48 pm
talk more about the injustices that have come that way. and whether you agree with the injustices or not, i would remind him you will not be the only person who ever served time on the wrong side of prison boundaries, who endured an injustice, there will be people there for measurably longer than him, who also do not agree with their sentence and they will be looking an athlete response as he complained does he criticize long-term prisoners who have endured worse it would not get off to the best start if he if he did so i don't think it will change him if anything. i only think it will help him and his agenda jessin pepperoni, very interesting perspective. >> thank you thank you. all right. we now have the first name, hurricane season it's hurricane beryl. we are tracking this newly named hurricane next july hi forrest. >> cnn concert event with performance by keith urban, ashanti, maybe wrexham, the killers, and many more go for

1:54 pm
though, is the average first, second named storm, usually he doesn't occur until july 17 and the average date of the first hurricane isn't usually until august 11. so beryl is really in very rare territory here. and one of the main reasons for that is how warm these sea surface temperatures are on average, the location of beryl is running about three to five degrees above average virgin that may not seem like that much, but it's just enough to really allow storms like this to flourish in these very warm conditions also to, to note, it's very aware of where it developed this far east of the windward islands early into the season. say for example, june is not very common, so it's not just that it's strengthened very quickly, but also the location in which it formed make this a very uncommon storm. now, it's expected to make its way towards the windward islands over the next 12 to 24 hours. and by late sunday or even early monday, this storm is forecast to get two major hurricane strength as it makes its way into the caribbean seat
1:55 pm
we already have watches and warnings in place for the windward islands, but several other locations may end up seeing some additional watches and warnings take place as the storm continues to track westward in the coming days now, awesome. thank you. so in today's start small, think big. coral reefs are dying off at an alarming rate. we visit a farm on grand bahama that's striving to restore the underwater reefs by growing coral on land welcome to coral vita we are a core restoration facility and aim is to be the first for profit company within restoration, we see that as leveraging a brand new industry. we can generate revenue by completing contracts. and then that money can be put back into the business to push science forward what we'll do is we'll take one of these florals we turn. them into micro
1:56 pm
fragments. so by cutting them, essentially what we're doing is we're encouraging faster growth than we would normally see from a larger parent colony. and we're looking for it to cover this plug before we then move on to our next phase, which is placing it onto a cookie. that way, they'll communicate together and we'll actually fuse onto the cookie, creating a much larger coral mass so the benefit of a lambast farm is obviously the degree of control that we have over the environment, so that we can provide the corals with exactly what they need to yeah, to facilitate that fast growth that we're looking for. so in a little under a year, this particular species of coral has gone from the ocean through the micro fragmenting and is now ready to go back to the room. and i hope behind that is to obviously be out a push restaurant mission forward and make a real difference in a much shorter timeframe than we believe is currently happening. now, president biden meeting face-to-face with top
