11:01 am
hours, delegates from across the country will begin gathering at the united center here this week long event, capping off a whirlwind month for harris who rose to the top but the ticket after president biden's decision to step aside from this race, he will be giving tonight's keynote address, passing the torch to his running mate from four years ago, the president expected to focus on their achievements together. an argue that the harris-walz ticket is the natural successor assessor to carry the party's agenda forward. then there was first lady jill biden and also hillary clinton, who will be taking the stage tonight as well here with me now is cnn chief national affairs correspondent jeff zeleny, waiting for tonight to quote j.lo, what are we waiting for? >> will look, we're waiting for president biden to walk into this convention hall. and i am imagining is a lot of applause that joe biden has
11:02 am
ever received. these democratic delegates and party officials are grateful to him for what he's done as his record, but also his decision to step aside. and that is really what is really framing this entire convention here when you talk to people, they are grateful and thankful, but also wondering how he's doing. so there's this kind of a subtext of this. but for the biden speech, i'm told it's going to be forward-looking. he is not going to be dwelling on the past and he is using this moment to lift up vice president kamala harris, his legacy will be blind in large part by the outcome of this election. there's just no question about it. he may still have some sore feelings for other democratic sen. party elders, but i'm told not for vice president harris because she was a loyal vice president during that role, she still is obviously she is very much still in the role, but i think that is going to be the thing tonight. and also hillary clinton, she's coming home to illinois. she's from park ridge, illinois, as you know. well, she's just north of chicago here. so this is a moment for her as well. she
11:03 am
wanted to crack those glass ceilings. you and i covered that campaign back in 2016. she didn't quite get there. this also is a big moment for her, i think, as well. >> yeah, such an interesting point there and harris has momentum that is building behind her. what do you expect to hear from her when she is formally accepting the nomination later this week, but she's going to be in the hall tonight. it's going to be the first time that democrats see her she's not expected to speak, but she'll be watching president biden. but when she it does speak on thursday and really every speech is going to be given to the service of identifying her, filling in some of the blanks about what americans may not know about her and when you look at surveys, it's actually a fact people aren't that familiar with her background and some of the details of what she's done. so every speech will be given for that, but for her she will be presenting herself as a contrast to donald trump. i'm told there's not expected to be much red meat or as much red meat from her as just a more optimistic, hopeful look. then it probably would have been a
11:04 am
month ago but this speech from president biden tonight, after he addresses the convention, he is leaving. and from this point, the convention will not be about him. so it is every superlative we can use to describe it, i think is apt in this case, he didn't get a convention four years ago because of the pandemic. tonight he will, but in a very different way. >> and we should note just moments ago, president biden biden arriving there at joint base andrews with the first lady as he will be making his way to chicago for this big night, as he's going to keynote the first night of the convention. jeff, thank you so much for your reporting. we appreciate it as the democratic national convention kicks off, two new major national polls show vice president harris with a slight edge over trump in a head-to-head the matchup that is nationally their joining us now to break this all down, we have cnn political director david chalian. alright, david, let's take a closer look here at some of the key voting blocs, independent voters, young voters, black voters.
11:05 am
where does harris stand now against trump compared to how biden was doing among those same key groups? >> exactly. brianna, i mean, watching president biden move to the helicopter, there to come here for this pass the torch moment tonight and look at the numbers. at how the torch was being passed among independents in that abc news poll. what you see there is that back in july when it was trump versus biden, trump had a two-point advantage among independents ten point swing now towards harris, she has an eight-point advantage, 48% to 40% among independents in this new abc news poll, look among younger voters, the voters under the age of 40. so between 18 and 39, this was a group that biden did have a little advantage of her trump seven points kamala harris now has a 25 i point advantage in this abc news poll. 59% to donald trump's 34% with voters under 40-years-old. and you see a similar thing going on with black voters here. again, that was a group back in june, july donald trump was obviously not
11:06 am
winning them. it was a big joe biden group 64 points was the edge the biden had over trump among african americans. but look now, kamala harris has a 70 point edge over trump 83% to 11%. so some of these key constituencies are coming home in a big way for kamala harris, which is positioning her, as you noted at the top in these polls, with that slight national edge and she just unveiled her economic plan, david, but what does the polling show when it comes to who voters trust the most with the economy brianna, this is why i think we're going to hear a lot about her approach to the economy. >> the opportunity economy that she talks about. because right now it is a donald trump category and it's issue number one for voters look in this washington jenin impose poll that came out this weekend. again, this is national, we know this is a state-by-state race, but 46% donald trump is trusted to handle the economy 37% kamala harris, that's a nine percentage point advantage on the issue that most voters say is their top priority in this race. she's got to close
11:07 am
that gap and that'll be some of the work they do over the next four days here. >> a new electoral outlook is showing multiple pathways to victory for trump and also for harris, david, take us through this this was not the case, just four weeks ago when joe biden was the nominee, there was basically one very narrow path potentially to reelection for him. >> that's not the case now, we now have moved in our electoral outlook. seven states are in the toss up battleground category. you see them in yellow. there. it's not just that upper rust belt tier of pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin, but the sunbelt now, north carolina, georgia, arizona, nevada. these are all competitive states, newly competitive with harris atop the ticket. part of why? because so what i showed you in those polls, she has coalesce pieces of the democratic party here. and the key coalitions that are part of the biden victory from 2020 for instance. and she is snapped this race back into real competition here. so what you see here, harris right now has 225
11:08 am
electoral votes, either leaning are solidly in her corner. donald trump has 219 electoral votes. leaning are solidly in his corner. you know, you need to 72 when it's those yellow states that are up for grabs. and i, you know, this is going to be where they spend all their time and all their money. now you see what donald trump is doing on the campaign trail this week. and no doubt kamala harris will be out there in those states, right after this convention as well. brianna david chalian, our political sherpa in this very changing political landscape. >> thank you so much for that. let's talk more now with our panel. we have ashley allison, who was national coalitions director for biden-harris 2020, shermichael singleton ten is a republican strategist and a cnn political commentator. and we have alex thompson, he is a national political reporter for axios and the new cnn contributor. welcome. i do want to ask you ashley, because this is a historic moment for so many reasons, what we're going to see tonight, what we're going to see this week. what does harris need to? civ, at this convention well, i think
11:09 am
she needs to talk about the future and communicate with americans like everybody in this arena they support kamalaharris. >> they want the democrats to win. so her job is to use the energy from inside here and speak to people who are not in chicago right now. and se i want to build a future for america that you can thrive, that you can be a part of. and let me tell you how i will do it. you know, we talked about the economy being an important issue and people like to talk about it through a couple of words like inflation or prices. but when you talk about the economy to everyday americans, any means childcare, it means health care it means paid family leave. it means a lot of different emmys access to reproductive freedom. all these issues that play into how you have economically stable environment for yourself and your family. and i think she can paint that picture. she is uniquely poised to do it. >> shermichael, i wonder we just heard moments ago from republican vice presidential candidate, j.d. vance, who's in
11:10 am
pennsylvania as we see vance and trump bracketing this ticket here and he was addressing vice president harris's momentum. here's what he said well, i don't think, that we have to blunt her momentum. >> i think we just have to tell the truth to the american people have in our messages really simple that donald trump delivered peace and prosperity. there was peace all over the world. he delivered rising takeover okay, for american workers and kamala harris administration, which has now 3,000 days and running as deliberate, higher prices, unaffordable housing, and a chaotic situation you should all over the globe. >> we just really have to contrast those two visions in those two records of accomplishment. i think we do that the american people are gonna give donald trump another chance saying they don't need to stop her momentum. >> they just really need to bring a contrast is that how you see it, or do they need to do both? i mean, i think the momentum is going to be with the momentum will be to ashley's point democrats are excited. >> they were nervous about the possibility of losing in november. so i'm not surprised
11:11 am
that a significant number of sort of come home because vice president harris has invigorated them. but it's the folks in the middle that i think both candidates will have to appeal to david chalian talked about the economy being the number one issue where the former president leads by believe he said nine points. and so if you're talking to those folks in the middle of what is to restored of effort that you're affirmatively speaking forward-looking about in terms of increasing pay ashley talked about some of these issues. i think republicans do have a great opportunity to talk about the fact that republicans understand the importance of the family, generally speaking we want dad's to be proud to be able to provide for their families. we're seeing that that gap, the gender gap, because a lot of men, for example, would do not feel that their needs have been addressed appropriately. i think there are a lot of americans, particularly those of color, who are younger, who believe you know what i've voted one particular way for a very long time, i was promised certain things over the last 3.5 years and nothing has happened. so
11:12 am
i'm at a minimum interested in hearing a different message and so republicans need to make a pill so those individuals, alex, do you have a new story out for axios? for you're talking about tonight, which is really the president, president biden. he's going to keynote tonight. it's really, as you describe it, a bittersweet moment. tell us what you've learned. >> i mean, jeff zeleny sort of put it earlier that he's going to get a hero's welcome. everyone is going to be cheering. but how would you feel if everyone's cheering? you for something you didn't want to do. joe biden did not want to get out of this race. he made it very clear to every single person that he really believed that he was the person to beat donald trump. he's even said in interviews afterward that his polling still showed that he could have won. and so you're going to have him go out there and everyone's going to be like, thank you for quitting and that's a bittersweet feeling now that being said, he is not going to i think show sort of that disappointment or if he does, it's not going to be willing because joe biden knows that kamala harris winning is key to his legacy now and so he's
11:13 am
going to be full-throated in support for he is going to do anything he can because joe biden's it's entire legacy and nancy pelosi's articulated this too, is all cut up and whether or not donald trump returns to the oval office. >> and what about the first lady? she is someone who i think you see her emotions displayed often in a subtle way, but i do think you see them and so i wonder how we're going to see that tonight. >> beach i'm most fascinated by be as well because she does not hold her emotions and not just that she has known to be the grudge holder in the family she she often promotes it. there was back in 2020, even you may remember when kamala harris of all people, basically attacked joe biden's record on busing. it was jill biden biden met held under that grudge for a long time? >> yeah. so interesting shermichael, we just learned that in addition to these guests that were going to see tonight joe biden. joe biden, hillary clinton alexandria ocasio-cortez, you're also
11:14 am
going to be hearing from women who were affected by the supreme court overturning the roe decision. and i wonder what you think about how impactful that is going to be. >> i mean, look, i have, always long believed brianna that that is the single most consequential issue where vice president harris performs the best i don't think she's very great on the economy honestly, i don't think she's strong on immigration. i don't think she's strong on foreign policy. but when she's connecting with women on this issue about writes about choice it really does invigorate a lot of women and republicans have seen over the past two years, we've lost a lot of suburban moms, many of those moms previously voted republican. they were reliable republican voters and so that that is a point of contention for the former president. it's why he has attempted to moderate himself as much as possible because i think even he recognizes holy smoke. the dog has caught the car. what in the world do we do? and so i expect tonight for those women secretary clinton congresswoman aoc to speak not only to older
11:15 am
women who've experienced parents, what it was like, 304050 years ago, but also to younger woman who had her, right? that is now taken away i think they'll do well delivering that message. >> it's interesting because last week, ashley, you had j.d. vance who was asked about democrats seen abortion as a motivating issue, which we know it has been. i mean, we've just seen that laura ingraham was the one who asked him about it as she put it, marinating in propaganda was how she put it about suburban women. and this issue but he said he seemed to indicate that most suburban women, what they really care about is economic issues and crime. and i wonder what you think about that assessment ben while abortion is an economic issue of whether or not a woman has a right to have bodily autonomy and create a family or for whatever, for health reasons needs to not want doesn't want to have the child. >> that's an economic issue and we've said it over and i think women understand that
11:16 am
having ownership over the distance businesses you get to make is how you can become a thriving person now, j.d vance i feel bad for the republicans because it seems like he q i do because i'm a true american you know, i think it's like when you think you're going to get a shiny car and you get lemon, right? like they've polished it up. but when you start it, it cuts out on you every week. it seems like every week he's having a cutout moment because he's saying something that just doesn't relate people do care about crime, but what they don't want to be a crime is when they make a decision about their body. and that is what j.d. vance wants to do. j.d. vance wants to criminalize doctors and medical students and women and their friends and their families, and the people in the surrounding communities that might help women have access to abortion care that is not what women want. and i think that will fall flat on and jd vance's position on reproductive freedom is so extreme. so aggressive so a
11:17 am
throwback to a time that we should never want to go back to again the american people learn about that. they won't support him is he? >> that's, that's the debate that democrats want a half as we just it's heard so eloquently stated by ashley because they went on that argument, which again is why i republicans have got to go to the two things that we do have working in our corner, immigration, the economy. i do believe suburban moms care a lot about the cost of goods when they're going to the grocery store's. i do believe they care about whether or not their children are being raised in safe communities. and i do think republicans can make a cogent argument on those two points. >> well, and what you both just said is why both campaigns are spending over 300 million on television and digital ads. basically just this month alone, because there is an arms race in order to define kamala harris and there trying to find her as a protector of freedoms and the trump campaign is trying to focus on borders are,
11:18 am
or immigration inflation, the economy. and that's why this convention is so much more interesting than it was going to be four weeks going and tell you people that were working on the convention. it was a lot of it was gonna be a lot of trump going to be a lot of trump bashing. it'd be a lot of nato give trump they have revamped a lot of the messaging to be much more positive and much more biographical about kamala harris. >> if any night is going to look different, i think it's going to be tonight. thank you all so much. i really appreciate the conversation and still ahead. chicago police say they're hoping to avoid any dustups with dnc protesters, but they will not tolerate any violence and police are out in force as our protesters, we have more on the security preps across the city. and his hillary clinton gets set for her big speech tonight. we're going to speak to her former campaign manager about what he expects to hear from the 2016 democratic presidential nominee. stay with us for more special she'll live coverage of the dnc when we come back
11:19 am
the edge moments that shaped our culture coming this fall on cnn still have symptoms from moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease after a tnf blocker like humira or remicade, put them in check with revoke. >> revoke works differently and it's once-daily pill when symptoms tried to take control, i got rapid relief within vote when flares tried to slow me down, i got lasting steroid, pretty remission with red book check. and when my daughter saw damage for invoke helped visibly reduced damage of the intestinal lining check rapid symptom relief plastics steroid, three remission and visibly reduced damage. check check and check re-invoking lower your ability it's a fight infections including tv series infections and blood clots, some fatal cancers, including lymphoma and skin heart attacks, stroke and gi tears occurred. people 50 and older with a heart disease risk factor have an increased risk it's good dead, serious

>> now is the time to plan ahead, learn about an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan from united health care and how a plan like this helps you take charge of your health care with lower out-of-pocket costs. >> here's why medicare alone doesn't pay for everything you're deductibles and co-pays could add up to hundreds, even thousands of dollars a year everyone's a little surprised to learn that one. >> adding a medicare supplement plan helps pay some of what medicare doesn't. >> and that could mean fewer surprises and more predictable out-of-pocket costs call unitedhealthcare and asked for your free decision guide. >> or talk with a licensed insurance agent or producer to learn more about planned benefits options, and rates medicare supplement plans, let you choose any doctor, any specialist anywhere in the u.s. who accepts medicare patients. you don't have to deal with any networks or referrals this kind of plan also goes with you anywhere you travel in the country if you're turning 65

11:24 am
of president biden's as he came to this tough decision to step aside, what are you expecting to hear from him tonight? >> you know, this very important night in his life and in his career, i think he's going to look forward as he has always tried to do. the last time i was with him, i spent about an hour with some a couple of weeks ago we talked about everything looking back and looking forward he's got a great legacy. he has was one of the greatest presidents we've seen in our time. too many people do not know where he got done or accomplished to make people take credit for the work that got done by him and his leadership and don't talk enough about things they're seeing in their communities are a direct result of his work he's going to walk into a hall that he's going to be loved tonight and i'm sure what a bittersweet night for him to that to that point, i was going to use that word is some of this going to be difficult? it sounds like they're going to

11:26 am
tonight we'll hear from hillary clinton. >> and i covered that campaign. and there were a couple moments from it that i reflected on the night that she lost one was in the primary when bernie sanders, one-year state of michigan, which made me think of a time and in the spring of 2016, where i was talking to you at an auto industry event, sort of a campaign event for hillary clinton? and you were anxious, you had a lot of concerns about michiganders and whether they were getting behind hillary clinton. i saw that moment sort of with fresh eyes. your very much you send off an alarm bell when it needs to be sent off. and i wonder what you think right now about how this ticket is fairing and michigan and what kamala harris needs to do to win over folks there so i went nobody listened to me to 16. they didn't they
11:27 am
should have device so it does i want to say that to four years ago, she wouldn't leave fish can tell she told her team she looked in the whites of my eyes and i told her what i really thought so that i can give you that story from four years ago, michigan's purple state. >> i'm not on the sugar high that a lot of other people are. i'm excited. there's renewed energy when we're doing the following to your kickoffs, there's more people than you've seen. that's all there. but i'm in the union halls. i've met some of the members of the michigan militia last weekend. donald trump's going to michigan tomorrow for a very deliberate reason in an area i think we should all be asking why he chose since they had a klu klux klan march there exactly three weeks ago readying. his division and his hate, he plays to anxiety and fear. but we got to get in the union halls off till every union leader i'll go in your union hall between now and the election we got to get those union hall members. they're just not sure. they've got to know who she is. too many of

replacement. i had a seats sensor that went out $1,400 endurance paid it. >> you've got a brand new transmission and we never seen the repair bill use any certified mechanic you want, just bring your car in and endurance will pay them direct all major parts are covered. >> what i like about endurance they don't play games. there's no middleman, there are solid company if i didn't have endurance, would've paid over $7,000 out of pocket to repair my vehicle. something is going to break down, making durrance pay for it with endurance, your car repair costs go way down while you're corps life expectancy goes way up allowing you to drive more and pay less. one claim alone, saved me more than $4,000 i've had five claims and that is $3,500 that i've kept in my pocket so who's going to pay for your next car repair? you or endurance whether you put 10,000 or 100,000 miles a year

11:44 am
after all when there are no ceilings, the sky's the limit and robby mook was there. >> he is the former campaign manager for hillary clinton's 2016 campaign were going to be seeing her with a big role tonight what is her job this evening? >> yeah. i think some people might be surprised. this is going to be a really upbeat speech i think she sees her role as helping to continue this incredible momentum we've seen for kamala harris but what we're also going to hear from her is, what does it mean to elect that first woman president? so not just celebrating fact that that might happen, but what opportunities is that going to provide opportunities and freedoms to make health care decisions to tell your kids that can be anything they want so i'll let let her do it. i don't want to ruin it, but yeah, i think you're going to here an upbeat future oriented endorsement of kamala harris
11:45 am
she obviously italy was hoping to be and you can hear, of course this sound checks behind us they can hear us better than you think they can on the tv, don't worry, but they're checking out some of the music behind us here in chicago hillary clinton was obviously hoping to be the first female president she was expecting to be until sort of a surprise outcome i'm on the, on election night is she going to talk about her experience, her loss? >> is she going to talk about that? >> yeah. look, the whole theme of this campaign and an imperative of this campaign is to look at the future and drive into the future. i don't think first of all, she's going to dwell on the past and the other important thing is this isn't about her. this is about kamala harris on what she can do for families. so i don't think you're going to hear her dwelling. what i think you're going to hear her push this forward and talk about how we have to keep this momentum going for her. >> how much is about trump and
11:46 am
because it's interesting when you look at the dnc platform and mentions trump well, over 100 times, between 100, 200 times i mentioned kamala harris have 30 something times how much of it is about trump, how much of this convention needs to be about trump versus harris? >> yeah. well, i think it's a really important part of this convention because this election needs to be a choice between the future and the past. and we have to talk about when we say don't go back to trump, we need to talk about what that isn't defined that i think for hillary today. and again, ivan read the exact speech have just been briefed on it, but i think you're going to hear her focus on that positive vision and not dwelling a bunch on trump. i'm sure a lot of other speakers you're going to hear tonight are going to spend some time on that. i'm sure the president is going to spend some time on that in his remarks. but i think hillary is going to be more focused on the future and it's a very conscious choice to look for optimistic vibe. and obviously that he used to what we have seen coming from kamala harris this sort of focus on trying to bring the
11:47 am
joy back in. the things you heard governor walz thank her for that. they're really trying for that what is the thought process behind that and how that appeals to voters as a contrast to trump. >> yeah look, this does need to be a choice and you do need to disqualify trump, but that's not enough, right? we can't just run against trump, particularly because, look, we have a democrat in the white house, so we need to more clearly defined hi, and what is kamala harris's vision really mean? what is she going to deliver uniquely, this isn't just reelect the status quo. this is a new chapter, a new page, and it is imperative we define that we started to hear the vice president roll some of that out next week, but these next four days, people forget a convention is for days of television, you get to say whatever you want. it is unfiltered, right? so we've got to seize that opportunity and lay down that story for voters. so you'll hear both alright? i know there you go. i

11:53 am
coverage of the democratic national convention here in chicago, police say violence will not be tolerated as the city is bracing for tens of thousands of protesters to converge on the city. >> this week, cnn's shimon prokupecz is outside the convention hall and shimon, there is certainly a heavy police presence outside. we have seen it. what's being done to ensure safety yeah, brianna so were actually several blocks away from the convention center were at union park which is where the protests are gathering. >> this is the area where they were told to gather, this is where the protesters have been gathering at some point, we do expect them to start marching from here. there are thousands in this far, probably a little less than what the organizers were expecting. and then at some point, as i said, they have a route it's about a mile. route where they're gonna go from here in the park and they're going to head out and they're going to go into the streets. they're going to march
11:54 am
towards the convention center. the police have only given them the city has only given them an a mile. they want more they want a mile and a half. they're not getting that right now. so that's where we could see some confrontation as they get closer to the convention center, to the united center. what will happen there if they tried to go any further than where police are allowing them to go. and that's sort of the big question right now. he said, the organizer yesterday told us that it's going to depend on how many people show up and what the protesters wanted to do. that's going to dictate where they go and how far they go. but as you know, because you're there at the united center, there are gates surrounding that entire complex for about a mile. >> and it's going to be really difficult for them to get anywhere near the center. >> so it's gonna be interesting what we're supposed to start marching here once the speeches are done, we're wrapping up here. once they take to the streets we're going to see how that goes. briana and shimon, chicago police said
11:55 am
they're committed to letting people express themselves. >> how are they preparing if there is unrest, if there are benny clashes between groups of protesters are counter protesters so brianna, we seen some of the counter-protests and i want to i want to walk and show you some of the police out here. >> we've seen some counter-protesters. it's been very peaceful. both sides. we've seen pro trump supporters scene supporters of israel out here on the other side. they have come out here and it's been relatively peaceful, but i want to show you here on this side, come this way, jerry, the police are on the outside there on bikes, just waiting here in the distance. >> i don't know if you can see they're out here. they surrounding the area, but they're allowing so you're protesters as they remain in the park to stay in the park, they're not interfering once they leave. that's when we could start to see some of the conflict at some of the issues all right shimon. thank you so
