8:00 pm
>> no time for now, gaps tonight, except for 1.5, something to say. >> yes so we have seen some old video of j.d. vance where he was attacking childless cat lady. so it's what he called a kamala harris, despite the fact that she's raised, helped raise two stepchildren so i just want to make sure that if he's going to be attacking cat ladies childless dog lady in the chacha, the man, childhood dog lady treatment here, right. >> so does easy. she wants to be treated fairly. equity cat or dog, ladies, every want fish everybody thank you all so much for watching newsnight state of the race. >> laura coates live starts right now well, president biden's patriotic swan song
8:01 pm
tonight on laura coates live so. here's the thing. people who know joe biden best. they have long said that they're actually to joe biden's. he got joe biden, the statesmen, and then joe biden, the defensive and stubborn politician well, tonight we saw the statesman for 11 minutes. president biden delivered a primetime address that this country has not seen since lbj back in 1968, talking about an american president announcing a decision not to run for reelection or actually explaining his decision. we already had that dear john letter on sunday. but at a time when he'd already had earned the delegates, that's history with a capital h. his family was seated just off camera to his left in the oval office. his son, hunter, daughter, ashley, and of course, dr. jill biden is first lady among them but the address, although they
8:02 pm
were in the room, was actually not to do that, was it? it was to you? the american people, his fellow americans, and frankly, the entire world and after weeks of pressure, a speculation and punditry about what led biden to make his decision. will tonight if finally heard from him directly i believe i record as president my leadership in the world i vision for america's future hall murder to second term nothing nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy that includes personal ambition so i decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation in a way the president returned to the same message she used when he ran in 2020. >> you remember that one? >> he'd say that america was the battle for the soul of the nation. well, he still believes that to be the case. even
8:03 pm
saying that he was had earned a second term, but this time around, it's not him who would lead the charge. >> i reviewed this office i love my country more spent the honor of my life to serve as your president but in the defense of democracy, which is a stake, i think is more important than a title. it's not about me. >> it's about you your families, your futures it's about we, the people now, i called it a swan song, but this was actually not a resignation speech, was it? >> the president made it crystal clear that he's going to run through the tape. he's going to govern until the end of his term, but avoiding a return of trump will now fall to his vice president, kamala harris, who's, as you know, the de-facto oh, nominee biden actually thanked her tonight, calling her experienced and tough. now, he never actually mentioned trump's name, diddy,
8:04 pm
but he didn't have to. his message was clear great thing about america is here. kings and dictators do not rule. >> the people do history he's in your hands the powers in your hands the idea of america lies in your hands just have to keep faith keep the faith well here to unpack this historic moment. >> and writer chris whipple, author of the fight of his life inside joe biden's white house. chris, good to see you. i mean, we knew this was forthcoming. thank you. what we knew was coming. we read the letter on sunday. president biden tonight saying that the country is more important britain than anyone's personal ambition. did he meet the moment tonight absolutely. >> did. this was an amazing moment of grace. you know, it was the most difficult an agonizing decision. joe biden has ever made in his amazing career maybe the most difficult
8:05 pm
of any president since lyndon johnson in 1968 the thing that struck me as fascinating was the way he framed the decision. he said he was passing the torch because he had to unite the party now, if you know, if you gave joe biden truth serum, he might say that in america, the people rule, but so does nancy pelosi i'm being slightly facetious, but the point is that he had to make 72 hours ago and his house in rehoboth beach he has to make a cold, hard calculation and he made it. and that was that there was no path forward with the party leaders abandoning him. and what was obviously a bitter he he felt betrayed by some of them so this was a decision he did not want to make. and yet he made it tonight without bitterness. just grace. >> you identify former speaker nancy pelosi? certainly, no one
8:06 pm
is naive to suggest that although she is a speaker emeritus, she still wields a great deal of power you think that she's responsible for his decision to step aside? >> well, i'll tell you this. i think that if to this moment, joe biden believes that he could win this election against donald trump. and i think he probably believes he could serve another four years. i think the calculation here was not that he couldn't win it was that he saw the party disintegrating around him. there was no path forward with nancy pelosi and the other leaders also ready to lower the boom publicly and him this coming week. so he had no choice. you know, he's fought so many battles and he's been defiant. he's defied the odds time and time come again. this was one last battle that he couldn't win. but boy, in the way he left in the way he stepped aside he want it. i think leave it to you, the author of his book really to look at that word, the uniting
8:07 pm
of the party, i wonder if other people caught that nuance as well. the chris and it was something he did not address. he didn't address trump by name, but he certainly made it very clear that americans have this choice to make about the direction of the united states of america is going to go into listen america connect to choose between moving forward or backward between hope and hate between unity and division we have to decide do we still believe in honesty, decency respect freedom, justice, and democracy this moment we can see those we disagree with, not as enemies but as, fellow americans. >> can we do that? there's character in public quick life still matter i mean, that split-screen is not very subtle issue of character certainly identifies and points to one
8:08 pm
opponent. he didn't have to name trump by name, would that line about character set at all? and i think everybody got the message. the thing that surprised joe biden shocked him really plea during his presidency more than anything else, was the lasting power of trumpism. he thought that donald trump would be in the rearview mirror by now. he had this old school idea that he had a mandate of seven months an votes. and the trumpism would go away. but it hasn't. and i think he, among other things, not only did he was he vintage joe biden, he was he was humble. he was he was playing spoken. he was eloquent tonight, but he also clearly laid out what he sees as the existential choice voice that faces the american public this year what did shakespeare say out? >> spot. see, i still remember shakespeare, chris whipple. thank you so much. >> great to be with you. >> joining me now, the first senator who called for
8:09 pm
president biden to step aside, senator peter welch, a democrat from vermont senator. i'm so glad to have you here this evening. i've been really curious about your position knowing now that biden has decided to step aside, what was your reaction to his speech this evening? >> you know, if we step back from the political analytics and just think about this on a human level it's pretty extraordinary. my view very inspiring i mean, this is a man who at 29-years-old ran for the u.s. senate won he lost his wife and daughter later. he lost his house. and other son and he had another son who suffered from addiction he had the will to work through that incredible personal tragedy any a lead. he had a normal number of political setback so what you know is this man finally achieved the office that he was seeking for all his life did an enormously good job, had the enormous affection of democrats he had that debate, which is,
8:10 pm
is astor and he had to reassess could he win in what would it mean to our country and despite his determination is willingness to engage in yet another up mountain battle. his conclusion was it would be better for the country if he stepped aside. there's a lot of humility in that it's humility and a man who had shown throughout his career enormous ambition enormous strength and i find that inspiring, that his sense of public service, that he had when he was 25 and being a local supervisor endured through this moment when he stepped aside from the presidency of the united states, just think about that. he relinquished power even though he had already won the nomination of the democratic party. so i find this an extraordinarily inspiring moment. >> i'm glad to talk about that human element of it because it must have been particularly difficult. and he spoke about
8:11 pm
personally ambition, being subordinate to the love of country. and reference he had for the office as well and to your point about public service, he says he's going to keep working he's going to work right until he leaves office. he talked about issues in the economy. he talked about gun violence, supreme court reform, just to name a few what do you think he ought to prioritize in these final months because none of these are really lame duck, right? these are significant things to do. >> two things, number one, his priority is preserving our democracy. and i think his decision liberates him. can you imagine your president, united states? you're also having another job where your, the candidate for reelection in a fierce campaign with there's going to be negative. we all know that. so now what is it already is he can concentrate on being above all of that and as fundamental questions where when he does like supreme court reform, we've got a really bad supreme court but it gets partisan he's not in the
8:12 pm
situation of a candidate for reelection. he's in a position of president who's relinquished power, but who's saying for the sake of our democracy, we've got to have supreme court reform so on that issue, in democratic issues like access to voting, like the importance of securing the right of women to make their own decisions about their body. i think he's deliberated to be a statesman who's not seen as somebody who's just in the hurley burley of a campaign what's fascinating to me though, is that this is a kind of a rorschach test, for example, you have this view and then senator j.d. vance viewed his decision to not running for reelection as a threat to democracy at its core. listen to what he said actually really what happened was the leaders of the democrat party and a very undemocratic move the
8:13 pm
bosses. they said either you get out or we're going to throw you out. >> that is not how it works. that is a threat to democracy, not the republican party, which is fighting for democracy every single day it's quite a split screen. >> do you think this is a threat to democracy or anti-democratic in any way, you know, it's his foreign to me about this, not just the president, but he had a bad debate and every day i come from vermont where he got the highest margin of victory. and people who love joe biden said to me, peter, we've got to do something. this isn't going to work so instead of ignoring the reality of what we saw a lot of people mobilized, enacted in the president responded, you take the republican party, some many of my colleagues and i deter in the senate privately say what we all know trump is kind of nuts but they won't do anything about it. we acted it was a situation where we were putting our obligation to the best to do the best we can to
8:14 pm
have a candidate who's got a good shot. beating president trump. we acted and the republicans are accommodating a guy who's destroying the republican party. >> you have to think about candidates, though, the complete ticket would include a vice president or running mate for kamala harris, who do you think that ought to be? >> all of the people have been mentioned are good with me. here's what we have to do you know, our campaign has to be about the future. and we've got to speak to folks who are feeling that the democratic party is a little out of touch. we've got to convince them that we have a vision that includes, that making housing affordable having kids that they have real security that they can have the american dream, that things could be better that we focus on common needs that are true for folks, whether they're in a red state or a blue state, we've got to have affordability. we've got to have i health care system that works. so there's going to
8:15 pm
be a lot of talk by our presidential candidate about the failings of trump. but i also think you're going to hear kamala harris talking about our commitment to meeting the common needs of folks. whether they're in a red state or a blue state, whether they voted for trump in the past or not, we have to have common solutions for the common challenges that all of his face and america what's that are welsh, we'll see how the voters feel about it. thank you so much. >> thank you well, former president trump, holding his first rally since president biden dropped out of the race, testing out his lines of attack against his brand new opponent kamala harris. >> and let me be clear, they were not pretty will bring them to you next if you don't mind, i'm not going to be nice. >> is that okay? >> we are on the same page, right? this is atlanta. >> what do you think he was still add in pieces and still have the draft and free agency? my job is to do what's best for

8:20 pm
neutrophil was life-changing for me get growing at neutrophils a calm the situation with wolf blitzer tomorrow with six on cnn well, tonight, donald trump headlining his first rally since kamala harris is presumptive rise at the top of the democratic ticket. and if this rally was any indication, it's going to be a long and bitter campaign. listen if kamala harris gets in, she would be the most radical far left extremists ever to occupy the white house times there's never been a lunatic like this in the white house her name, first of all, is kamala cannot camila await know it's the way other erez, it's camila, not kamala you get that, right? she's been the vice president, united states for almost four years and something tells me he knows exactly how to pronounce her name. >> joining me now, former trump white house deputy press
8:21 pm
secretary sarah matthews reporter for politico, and alex isenstadt also an inhaler clinton's 2016 campaign manager, roby, look, i'm just talking. >> everyone's name right now just to prove the point that everyone's name was quite clear to everyone listening today, right? let me bring you in here, sara, though, because trump said it himself tonight, that everyone seemed to expect a change in his tone following a tragic and devastating the nation near assassination attempt. but that's not what he delivered tonight. it seemed to be a reversion back to the earlier days no, it was pretty funny watching him say that everyone wanted him to be nice and he says, i'm not going to be nice and that goes against exactly what his campaign told us the tone was going to be moving forward and his campaign, we were told that he was going to be softer, more unified and then we all saw that currency convention, acceptance speech. and that wasn't the trump that he delivered. and then in this
8:22 pm
speech tonight, we saw him say things like the democrats stole the election, that it was rigged moving forward with this divisive rhetoric. and i think it just goes to show that he hasn't changed at all whatsoever. so not even an attempt on his life will do that. he's always going to be trump. and so no matter how much wish-casting the trump campaign tries to compel him to be the unifier that's just not who he is. >> and by the way, the crowd seemed to love it we they were feeding off of him saying, i'm not going to be nice tonight. they were roaring with applause and he is somebody's to feed off the crowd. there's also this mispronunciation thing, robbie. and of course i've jokingly called you roby obviously it's robbie, but, you know, you're at 20:16. hillary clinton campaign alum did you pick up on just how many times he had actually mispronounced harris's name. i mean, our producer counted what, 41 times during his speech tonight. i mean, how should she counter him? did you even try to address it?
8:23 pm
>> yeah i think this is best left to others. this is a trap he wants to set with hur, and it's interesting because he wants her to start to make this about her and she needs to make it about the voters, right? this what's in it for them, that's really important for her in this introductory period, it's incumbent on her to first of all, introduce herself in tell her story, but then explain what's in it for people and we know prices are high, there's a lot of uncertainty about the economy in the world. so she's got to explain what's in it for them. and i would not take the bait on this and i know i know this team really well. i don't think they're going to it would be taking the bait. we turn to alex on this because i'm sure he wants to get into discussion on name-calling and kind of a for tat rolling in the mud, so to speak, which can distract you from the mission and purpose. but he did eventually pivot his way back to the teleprompter and in those moments, he did talk about the policy issues. listen to this kamala has been more unhinged
8:24 pm
than her while pursuit of open open-borders, she cast the tie-breaking votes that created the worst inflation and a half at first centuries, you want socialist health care, nation reckon inflation the death of american energy. >> and a line radical left liberal san francisco extreme and minister as your commander-in-chief. then kamala harris is your candidate. she's the one for you i mean, that sentence was chock full of so many different policy positions and talking points. >> i do wonder the name calling aside and that's one thing that he's trying to do. but is this the policy issue where you think the rubber meet the road? >> well, he's trying to attack her on any number of policy issues. do is he's trying to take joe biden, who clearly was less popular clearly at this point, let's pop it with the kamala harris and she's trying he's trying to attach her to him on any number of issues that that are part of the biden administration? and so he's trying to take immigration and really trying to hone in on that. he had a call with
8:25 pm
reporters yesterday, we talked specifically about immigration, so that's clearly sort of a focal point, but there's also what you also saw on that clip was a real lack of focus. it's not totally clear to me at least how they're going to how he's trying to go after harris. that's why there's no real clear argument. so you're seeing some of immigration, you're seeing some other issues being thrown there. you think she's soft not he's think she's soft on crime, but it doesn't feel like they've really found a sharp message that they found when they were running against biden, which was that he lost his mental acuity losses dap and he had been an effective it doesn't feel like they've quite found on that message to use against her yet, i find that so surprising for so many reasons, sara, not because i think there are the laundry list of reasons to attack but because they had been asking or saying that that biden should not be running any longer if you just want to follow that thread a centimeter the next conclusion would be that she possibly would be the presumptive nominee, that they really not think that there had to be a message or a strategy as it relates to the vice
8:26 pm
president yeah. >> i mean, you would think that they'd be better prepared for this moment and kudos to them because clearly their messaging about biden worked the voters believed it. they thought that joe biden was too old to do the job and continue for another four years and seek a second term. and so you would think then that the trump campaign would have been prepared to take her on as a candidate and they you have kept saying in their messaging before biden dropped out, i think in the months leading up to this, they were saying, oh, well, you're really voting for kamala harris. and so then you would think that they would have their lines of attack ready to go or commercials or more poll testing on what the message is that is best used against her because as alex noted, it just seems like they're throwing whatever at the wall and seeing what sticks right now. >> and again trying to run rev up the base in a campaign rally, different than trying to rev up a base in a general election. >> and what weight actually resonate with them. but robbie, let me ask you, because there was this illuminating policy moment of sorts where trump
8:27 pm
field where he stands today today on abortion. listen to this i happen to support the three exceptions, rape, incest, and the life of the mother. >> i think that's the way but follow your heart but you also have to remember, you have to get elected. you have to remember it because we have elections and elections are about a lot other things too that are very important but remember, follow your heart. >> i don't follow that particular logic. was he trying to undermine his own statement? i mean, we know that just had the last week's rnc reproductive rights was not even talked about all that much. he knows though that this issue is not a winning one, particularly for him. could you decipher? for the code that he was trying to say yeah, well, he's trying to have it both ways. >> look, he gave the extreme right-wing what they wanted, which is they wanted to get rid of roe v. wade states now can pass whatever laws they want
8:28 pm
not according to the limitations he just laid out. note, they don't have to have exceptions, so he's undermining his own policy right there and he's doing it because he knows how unpopular it is and it's interesting you were talking about him mentioning policy. i think this election is going to be about culture. it's going to be about some big lies, big myths. there's not going to be a lot of policy details. i think this is one place where policy is really going to matter. these sorts of details leave him very vulnerable. this is a critical issue in this election, and i think one of the many things we gained by having kamala harris now as our candidate is someone who can really speak to this issue, even more powerfully than joe biden could and you just heard it right there, trump i'm scared. so he's trying to roll it back. he's trying to spackled over, but the facts speak for themselves. >> i wonder if hedging and politics will work in this campaign. thank you all. robbie mac, sarah matthews, alex isenstadt. i pronounced all
8:29 pm
your names correctly. the point has been made. thank you. >> ahead. the fbi director says that trump rally shooter was actually googling jfk's assassination and the particular question that he's searched for and what it might reveal about a motive. i'll tell you next and next. vice president harris tells the backbone of the democratic party she's counting on them congresswoman cam leg or dove was there and now she's here after this. >> allow these extremists want to take us back, but we are not going back. >> we are not going back saturday on the whole story. >> political violence has always threatened or tomorrow after the attempt on trump's life, where does america go from here? the whole story with anderson cooper, political violence, america as bloody history, saturday at 8:00 on

8:35 pm
like and the response to her now being the nominee it was jubilant excitement there. >> women who had been lined up since 4:00 in the morning to make sure that they would get into that convention center. so i was just happy to be able to hitch a ride with her as a member of zeta phi beta, and she's he's aka, we were able to talk about the importance of these organizations right rooted in community justice and economic development and sisterhood and service and then to hear her talk to these women. many of whom have lived through generations are times when they were not able to vote, they did not have access to quality health care or housing. they had employment discrimination that they had to deal with and there listening to this black woman who is running to be the next president of the united states, share with them all of the accomplishments that have happened under the biden-harris administration and her vision for the future, it was electric even with all of that, i think there are so many people who are excited. and yet there is a
8:36 pm
level of nervousness given the history of america and the way in which women and particularly black women have been cast aside side except for when it comes to elections. and there were those who were talking even in the room. i understand what one person who was in attendance said that she is going to have a hard time. i'm just being honest. she's a woman and she's black, so she's not going to win, but they said, if you had your eyes closed and you just go based on her qualifications versus trump's qualifications? yes. she definitely would win. that speaks volumes about i think a level of anxiety in addition to the enthusiasm about the prospects of a black woman in america in 2024 being successful at the presidential election. >> well, we're always nervous when one of our own ascends into space. does where we know people don't want us to be. we get very nervous and also very protective. so i think that's what she was saying. i remember my grandmother was incredibly nervous about barak obama running to be president, but
8:37 pm
she shared this bold vision for a future, right? the fact that we have to be protecting these freedoms, we have to be fighting for economic justice, social justice reproductive justice, and all of those things are on the chopping block with project 2025, we have seen through this manifesto that he wants to erode protections, really that black folks fought for to make sure that we would have basic federal protections. that's right. to make sure that the water you drink is clean, that you don't have poison in your food. you know that you have access to school lunches that you can vote. this, that you have access to the national weather service that you have medicaid and medicare all of these things he wants to erode and then fire 4 million federal workers and then replace them with his loyalists. and she's saying no, let's be bold let's talk about climate change. let's talk about greater infrastructure. let's elevate the cries that we're hearing from our gen z's and let's celebrate our seniors who continue to need inhalers
8:38 pm
and insulin at $35 a month? the right. who need that medical debt taken off their credit report. so there was so much excitement and i told them, i said, do you all understand the assignment and all of the women's said, yes. and we know exactly what that assignment is. it's getting her elected. >> well, there's also innuendo and dog whistling is happening in know if it's a dog whistle or horn blowing because there has been those who have labeled her in spite of her qualifications. and last four years as the vice president of the united states elevating her to a dei hire and one of the people speaking about that was congressman tim burchett, who came on. my sirius xm show this morning, and i asked him about what the response has been to that statement. listen to what he said he wasted. >> said. no, but it was the truth it's not the truth. >> first of all, but why do you think people believe this to be an effective vehicle to
8:39 pm
undermine her? >> well, it is a dog whistle. they also have nothing else to talk about you know, chip roy said it the best. we don't have a platform to run on we haven't done anything in congress that we can take home and share with our district constituents. so of course they're going to fall back on these very tired tropes. she is the most qualified candidate running for president. i actually wish they would talk about j.d vance, who really is a dei hire i mean, he has absolutely no qualifications and the guy running against her is equally unqualified. so let's spend some time unraveling the incompetence that was the last four years of the trump administration. and then compare it to what she and joe biden have been able to do. and just three-and-a-half years an inconvenient truth. he may be describing congresswoman. thank you so much for joining me today. >> thank you ahead. >> the chilling jfk, google search by the gunman who tried to assess mate donald trump the questions it's raising about

8:45 pm
oswald from kennedy? >> and so that's a searched obviously is significant in terms of his state of mind we that is the same day that it appears that he registered for the butler rally that's not all because right. >> also said that the shooter flew a drone a drone to 200 yards from the stage, where trump was going to speak just hours before the foreign president took to the podium. and then there's the gun that was used by the shooter weapon had a collapsable stock which could explain why it might. >> have been less easy for people to observe. because one of the things that we're finding is people have observed him. the first people to observe him with the weapon were when he was already on the
8:46 pm
roof and we haven't yet found anybody with firsthand observation of him with the weapon, walking around beforehand there were also apparently two explosives that were found in the shooter's car and wray said that those explosives, they could have been detonated remotely that is, if the remote receiver had actually been turned on, but it was in the off position. >> and then there's the question that everybody wants to know why why did this 20-year-old attempt to assassinate a former president? >> i think, it's fair to say that we do not yet have a clear picture of his motive well, joining me now, casey jordan, she's a criminologist and behavioral analyst. >> casey this has so many unanswered questions now, according to ray on july 5, the would-be assassin actually traveled to the rally site. at one point in time and the next day, he searched for how far
8:47 pm
away was oswald from kennedy that same day, here just for the rally so what can you discern from this timeline, from what a person like this? s was thinking i think it's pretty obvious to all of us, laura that it was planned. >> it's just not the act of somebody who was being impulsive, who just had a bad day and decided to do this randomly. he had been thinking about it for a while. but the question is, why one of the reports i've read, but it's unconfirmed is that he had done a search on his phone about symptoms for depression that would help explain why he may have been on a downward spiral. the why that really wraps this up especially now that we know that he did a search on lee harvey oswald. and again, the trajectory is that everyone knows the name of lee harvey oswald. he wanted to live in infamy. he wanted to be notorious, if you will. when we kind of back up and look about the fact that he was a loner, but but nothing about his
8:48 pm
political affiliation. i mean, yes, he was a registered republican, but he wasn't an extremist or active politics. >> it really just indicates that he wanted to be famous and we call this the travel travis become effect if you remember the movie taxi driver that inspired john hinckley in his failed assassination attempt of president reagan. >> and really it just comes down to you when you shoot at a president or a presidential candidate that you will be famous forever. >> i mean, just thinking about the many people in the world who are battling mental health and depression don't engage in this type of behavior. and the way you describe it i mean, a 20-year-old male a seemingly good student, as you mentioned, unclear about what his political beliefs really are is there a profile that you think the fbi are investigators are trying to map out in an attempt to either understand what happened here or to find a copycat that are prevent this from happening again?
8:49 pm
>> well, we don't like the word copycats so much as it does inspire other people with like-minded fantasies of being famous. but the bottom line with this particular shooting is that you have to keep in mind he has no diagnosed mental illness, not like john hinckley who had had a lot of psychiatric treatment for he attempted to kill reagan and what we do know is that it was legally purchased a gun that politics doesn't seem to play a role. but infamy does when people get on their downward spirals. and we do believe that he had actually failed to make the rifle team of his high school. that's been reported repeated and there are people who conflicting reports, but if that's true then think about the pseudo commandos and that's a typology of mass murder that we see with snipers like the dc sniper or your 2017 las vegas massacre, so many times you see people trying to prove their worth in marks and then ship.
8:50 pm
>> and if he was really feeling like he was under valued for his marksman ship in high school, this could be a chip on his shoulder. >> they carried around for a few years until he did that google search, wanted to know how many yards from lee harvey oswald to president kennedy, and decided to replicate that moment in history so that he would go down in history himself. >> casey jordan, this is as troubling as it is fascinating. thank you good to be here there were pretty tense protests and washington dc today as the prime minister of israel address congress now, it'll be biden and harris has turned to hear from him directly and the big question is, did his please give us any clues about how those conversations might go sunday the whole story dig deeper into historic week in presidential politics. >> first, the rise of kamala harris, followed by the story of joe biden's withdrawal from

8:56 pm
today listen many anti-israel protesters many choose to stand with evil they stand with hamas. >> they stand with rapists and murderers. you have officially become irans useful idiots joining me now, david sanger, a cnn political and national security analyst. he's also the white house and national security correspondent for the new york times. and he's the author of the perfect weapon he joins us in new cold wars. david netanyahu was lashing out at the protesters college presidents, by the way, the international criminal court just name a few while, all while giving a full throated defense of the war in gaza. what was your big takeaway from the speech? >> all right what's really fascinating about the speech is both what he said and what he failed to say first of all, it was delivered in sort of ronald
8:57 pm
reagan style. >> he had up in the galley idf israeli defense force heroes who had had limbs blown off but kept fighting hamas, who responded on october 7 to the terrorist attack one of whom had run eight miles to the site of the attack because he didn't have a car. so it was quite the theater what he failed to do was acknowledged in any way, the more than 30,000, nearly 40,000 by palestinian estimates civilian casualties. now some of those obviously are militants. the israelis say upwards 14 or 15,000 but he never came to grapple with the question of whether israel overreacted and
8:58 pm
killed civilians indiscriminately on the way to taking out terrorists and so we didn't really get to the core issue he did, however, make a very full-throated defense of continuing war and very little discussion of what he'd do the day after there, there were as you mentioned, there were mentions of the hostages, not much of on a potential deal to release them, which the white house says is close. but then there was this moment when he was pressing the united states to deliver weapons more quickly, essentially saying if you deliver them more quickly, this war will be over all the faster. listen to what he had to say with actually tonight, senator peter welch was reacting to that very point as to what this would look like. listen to what he said it was empty, it was tired there's been enormous loss of life in gaza there has been suffering
8:59 pm
in division in israel. i was hoping i listened to his speech in my office did i would hear a pathway forward. i didn't hear that did you hear that? >> and do you think that netanyahu gained any support for coming to congress in furtherance of that mission well i think senator welch is right. >> you did not hear any elements of the plan for how you get out of this. >> and you have to remember that that in part is because prime minister netanyahu was speaking not only an american audience, but to an israeli one. and in fact by hamas the less speech take place at 2:00 p.m. in washington. he was hitting sort of prime prime time in israel. >> and he knew that he's got to hold together his coalition, which includes some of the most right-wing parties that have ever seen power in israel that said it would have been helpful. >> i think for him to
9:00 pm
acknowledge what parts of the plan that president biden announced at the end of may and said was mr. netanyahu's plan. he really meant to go pursue it would have been good if he had could have described who would take control of security in gaza when the israelis leave because the u.s. has said it's unacceptable, for either hamas or israeli forces to be providing that security he didn't do that he was more of a speech for the heartstrings. >> but it wasn't this divisive as he was in 2015 when he came to oppose the iran nuclear deal david sanger, we look forward to hearing what the conversations with harris biden and trump will look like as well. thank you so much for joining us and his new book by the way, is new cold wars thank you for joining us. and thank you all for watching our coverage continues but right
