goes on the counter offensive inside russia and celebrates its independence day this weekend. the enduring resilience and sacrifice of its people. and finally, good trouble immortalized in bronze statue of the civil rights icon john lewis officially replaces a century-old confederate monuments welcome to the program, everyone, i'm christiane amanpour in london with a little over 70 days until the election. america's political destiny is on the line and everyone overseas is waiting for this as well. kamala harris fill the air with w.h.o. hoping chicago and across america. this week, after being officially anointed democratic leader at their convention our nation with this election has a precious fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness, cynicism, and divisive battles of the

past. >> a chance to chart a new way forward not as members of any one party or faction, but as americans i promised to be a president for all americans. you can always trust me to put country above party and self celebrities and democratic heavyweights like the obamas, the clintons and squad star's made the case for why harris should succeed. joe biden in november. but another main message was this an uphill battle remains we've seen more than one election slip away from us when we thought it couldn't have. >> don't get distracted or complacent. this is our time america. this is when we dad up

when we bright throw stop future is hair our grasp you need to vote in numbers that erase any doubt. we need to overwhelm any effort to suppress us fate is in our hands work like we've never worked before i'm sure convictions we will elect kamala harris as the next president, united states so what happens off to the harris honeymoon is a hopeful reenergized party enough and is erez convincing voters that her policies hold up, particularly on the economy here to discuss a stephanie flanders, whose head of economics and politics and bloomberg, and bloomberg economics. and she was at the convention joins me from there and from new york is leslie

vinjamuri, the director of the u.s. and americas programme at chatham house welcome both of you to the program so stephanie, i want to ask you first, as we talk you, at the convention still and it's winding down. so what do you think this week told you and told america about this battle for the mantle of change. is it kamala harris or do you think donald trump holds that card as he says, he wants to essentially change the whole establishment i think i mean, certainly there was a lot of talk about 2008. i lost count over the course of the week, the number of people talking about you know, america is getting the hope back. it feels like 2008 all over again that's that's obviously hopeful from the from the democratic faithful some level relative to the previous line that we had of president biden

and former president trump. she's changed because he's the one who hasn't been president before. and she certainly also represents first woman of color all of those things. they're trying to give the sense that there's change, but you're right every time i'm talking to policy advisers this was not a week really for policy whelk, so detail they all the speeches were steering well-clear of that. when you talk to those advisors, you can see in their own minds, they're struggling with that message. how much are they change? how much are they holding on to the legacy of the biden years which they consider to have been a success even if a lot of voters do not. >> so that's really interesting the way you say they've skirted and steered carefully away from actual concrete policy because we're going to get into that in a moment because it's really vital. but first lesly, i want to ask you because apart from the generational difference that kamala harris does represent now, she his much younger than donald trump. there's also the gender issue, but i'm really

interested in what you tweeted about the convention and we're going to just put that up basically how normal it is to see to see a woman now, just take a moment. there's a woman sitting waiting to speak on thursday her dad from jamaica, her mom from india, and she's leading the polls to be president of the united states of america. and it seems so normal does it though, leslie look, it is for many people going to be a very hard, i decision to make. >> there is a sense of it being normal of the style of communication, being non elitist. and i think this is really critical when you think about the last female to run hillary clinton was really attacked as being part of the establishment and very much an elitist. and i think the rhetoric and the discourse that's coming out of this campaign is really aimed at being something very different, very every day, very about very

much about neighbors, everyday america donald latest. and it has a feeling of normal, but you're absolutely right. a lot of people when they are ultimately faced with that decision in november, we say it's about the economy. we say it's about prices and inflation. we say it's about reproductive rights, but time and again, it's also do can i imagine? jin that person representing me that is a difficult ask for a lot of americans, especially those americans that will swing this election it's really fascinating. i want to now switch from minute to economics. let's view just, you just mentioned hillary clinton, but bill clinton had his moment on the stage and he did address the elephant in the room that we have a lot of work in his words to do if the democrats are going to win and the economy has to stay they front and center. stephanie, i'm going to play a soundbite

from his speech where he talks about who historically has created the most jobs for americans since the end of the cold war in 1989 america has created about 51 million new jobs that's where i check this three times even i couldn't believe it what's the score democrats 50 republicans want stephanie, do the democrats have a natural trust when it comes to the economy, given those figures you know, i think i mean the economic cycle, obviously has a lot to do with it democrat administrations have been in recent years, administrations where you saw relatively strong economic growth, certainly under the clinton years, those were boom

years in retrospect, periods of low inflation as well as job creation i think, what's frustrated the biden team is in the last few years, they feel like they have a lot of good things to say about the economy, certainly on the job creation front but the legacy of inflation, which is still sitting in people's bills every week, even though the headline number has gone back to back down, i think they underestimated how much that would linger with voters we've seen that all over the world. >> and i think the trouble that you've had, and i certainly this is something that kamala harris is struggling with in her north carolina speech last week where she started to lay out some economic proposals. the first half of that speech was still sounding a bit like president biden sort of saying to people you should feel better about the economy than you do. listen to these great numbers. >> but she then pivoted to say, we know that people are still hurting. >> we know there are things to do. but i think they're going to have to tilt that balance even further over the next few weeks if they really need to want to speak to this sliver of undecided voters in places like

pennsylvania, hold that thought because when we come back, we're going to talk about trump attacks, deep fake fails, and tan suit. also ahead, the producer of the biggest hits in pop music over the last decade. and then some jack antonoff is onset fresh off the tour with taylor swift the pros for have i got news for you are pretty yeah. >> what are the kinds we could run on the news before then? >> i would never happen if i got news for you. the mere saturday, september 14th at nine on cnn and streaming next day on max for fast sore throat relief, try vix, people, cool drops with two times more menthol per drop and powerful biggs vapors to taper eyes, sore throat pain six people cool drops, vaporized sore throat pain so biased, helping me get my money rights to achieve my ambitions like earning more money on my

the program and picking up where we left off with my panel on the road ahead for kamala harris and what it'll take to beat trump stephanie flanders and leslie vinjamuri join me again. let's talk a little bit about donald trump and sort of the fakes that been going around. you know, there was this fake thing created by a.i. that showed kamala harris, quote, unquote at a communist party rally, there was a fake banner using the famous uncle sam wants you to vote for donald trump using taylor swift stephanie you're there what do you think the effect of that is in today's world where so many get there, get their messaging and info from social media well, i think it's interesting. i mean, obviously we've had several weeks where i would say the ground game, the new version of the ground game, which is fought on social media the harris campaign had been

winning hands down the memes, all of the things that i'm sure you've talked about many times, certainly in terms of the young people. and i have been struck. i mean, those my colleagues have bloomberg who are much more kind of knee deep in seeing some of whether it's a.i. or some of the trolling or some of the attempted kind of negative memes have been struck, at least in the last week that those, most of those are failing to gain traction when you look at how many likes they're getting, how much time, how much they're being retweeted for example, there's been quite a lot of repeated efforts to suggest that kamala harris is an alcoholic with frankly rather absurd, fake photos they have they have not gained the kind of traction that you might have feared, but it is clearly there'll be one of these that does get through and it just goes to the relatively urgent need if you're sitting in on the democrat side to establish your message early so that people are kind of pre inoculated. they see this stuff. >> and it just doesn't ring true because they already have

an idea in their head of what the campaign represents and who she is. i'm going to play this soundbite lesly. it goes to trump's historic nastiness when it comes to his opponents, particularly women. and this is his daughter-in-law, head of the rnc talking about kamala harris in a very quote, unquote, trashy way it reminds me there was this bag that a very famous designer designed. this is several years ago and it literally was a trash bag, but they sold this thing for $2,000, thinking that people would actually buy it. it's a similar situation with kamala harris. >> i mean, it is in fact grotesque that kind of personal ad hominem attack. do i think the sort of statute of limitations on trump's nicknames, the nasty words he calls people, even people have said he's losing his sense of humor. do you think that that is past its sell by date now? >> no, because, you know, this is a again, it's an election where people are largely locked

in to their candidate, especially people who support donald trump one of the lines of i think has potentially actually the most dangerous is this attempt to frame her as a socialist as a communist. i have heard in my conversations with what we might call working class americans, middle-class who, whose interests are being represented to the extent that we know kamala harris has economic policies, their interests are being represented and they're concerned that she's giving away the store for free. so some of that attempt to frame her as a socialist is might work and that i think is going to to be a very tricky and important avenue that the democrats are going to have to work is persuading people that you can do things for people that you can give them $25,000 towards their first house it's not going to tank the economy. that

is really a big challenge i think going forward and stephanie, i have to ask you, i don't know if frivolous question or is it what is the obsession with a tan suit? >> kamala harris turned up in that the first nights by a great designer. then we've got barack obama and his time masoud, from years ago. what is going on? why does that matter well, i could ask you the same question. >> why would you even ask me about your ride? i think why am i saying i think there's a lot of little you mentioned taylor swift. i know from my very obsessive swiftie daughter that there's a whole lot of different layers levels that go on, on social media in terms of what they call clowning, little clues that they've place for people. and you never really know whether you're just reading way too much into a dress that she wore or a particular broach, or whether it is all part of some secret language. but you know what it all involves people talking about kamala harris and talking about her looking think pretty great. so i think if that's the

worst that we get, the democrats will be doing pretty well. >> and could we just for the record, say plenty of republicans have one town says they look great. pantsuits, a great up next on the program. thank you so much, stephanie and lesly for joining us. but next, the producer to taylor swift, kendrick lamar, lana del rey, sabrina carpenter, and so many others. jack antonoff talks about closing out london with taylor swift and his bands. new album good morning with dhaka good, good good. >> yeah strike down, collect too weak group by her fast and gentle constipation relief in as little as 30 minutes making your good morning even better with all collapse allergies with allegro, they won't stop me. that's because nothing beats allegro for the fastest non drowsy 24 hour allergy

answer questions you may have call now and we'll come to you 800 a31, 3,700 welcome back. >> in my letter from london, this week, it is being hailed as the summer of taylor swift, the pop sensation just wrapped up the european leg of her eras tour with a record-breaking eighth performance at london's wembley stadium, more than 1.2 million fans attended her concerts in the uk alone, bringing in an estimated $1 billion to the economy. it is incredible. the grammy winning producer jack antonoff, was on stage with her for that final performance, and he's been working with taylor swift since 2013. he's produced most of her last five albums and he's also touring with his own band, bleachers here in the uk this month, when he came to the london studio this week, i asked him about surrounding himself with powerful women like taylor swift jack antonoff welcome to the program.

>> thank you for having me. >> i have a lot to ask you, but i do actually want to start by your appearance on this stage with taylor swift which was pretty amazing. did you expected what was it like i'm the least nervous, the more surreal it gets. >> it'd be more nervous talking to you then being in front of that many people, you seem to be a seriously cool guy when it comes not just in music, but who you produce. and especially you produce a lot of very powerful women i don't know whether you started by identifying women or whether it was just something that came to you, how did how did it start with taylor swift, for instance? >> that started as organic as possible, literally met completely outside of even anything really industry like kind of their friends playing music that we liked. one thing leads to another. >> look, you've worked on 11

of her albums, but beyond that, you've won a lot of grammys and typically you want produced of the year for the last three years. >> yeah, it's bananas what is i don't even know whether you can, but can you say what is more satisfying what you like better is it producing, is it being a musician? >> is it being a performer? is it doing own stuff? >> i've never experienced any of them without each other so i don't know. >> i know for other people they're very different. you know, i have a lot of friends who love being in the studio and despise being on the road. or some people get exhausted by the studio and need to perform. they're very much one thing to me i've never been in the studio and not thought about live. i've never been on stage and not imagine what i was going to do next in the studio, you seem quite shy in interaction and you i mean, maybe you're not but you have associated you yourself both in your professional life and in

your personal life with what i said earlier, with some very strong, prominent women and not just famous women, women who are incredibly women of substance, whether it's the musicians we've talked about, whether you've dated people like scarlett johansson, lena dunham, you're married now to margaret ali who's an amazing new film called the substance, which is not yet out. >> substances i'm waiting to see it is really, really edgy if you're totally secure with very strong women and successful women. thanks so i mean, i'm not i don't want you to that lot. >> i've always felt very comfortable around people who are coming through themselves and that's usually people who end up having some power because that's a nice trait. >> but yeah, i just i like people who know what they wanna do and hear what they hear and just wanted to go find it and then we can have our big crisis of the day of what we should ever lunged, not about what we want to say to the world one of

the things you did say to the world through your profession was the getaway car you have that song. it went viral and it was part of the joint appearance the other night. and i just going to play a little bit of it when something amanda get away any euros a motel bar or like i'm in the getaway car, left you in the motel. >> barr took the money, took them bunny in the bag and i stole the money in a bank and i sold the keys. that was the last time you ever saw me? >> he was super energetic in that clip that we just showed you. it's the story behind the story, right? >> well, i think the reason why that clip has had such a big life is because there's everyone wants to tell the story of the studio. we see it in film and tv all the time. and often the story is sensationalized and candles and heroin in that version is not

really true that, you know, the studios. interesting place, but it's a place that you plant yourself in and you almost like fishing or something, like waiting to catch something you're trying all these different things think the reason why that video is a big life is because one of the few videos i've ever seen it and i happen to be in it, but that really captured the moment when two people get the idea for a thing and i don't know why she was recording that, but she was and is the only video i've ever been a part of where i'm like, yeah, that was that was really the moment. that was it when we put this together in this and it speaks to that one plus one equaling billion. you see two people one upping each other. and those of those moments when you really get the song i'm going to play another one or your song, modern girl, which is on your new album, you kind of joke. i think you're joking there suddenly new jersey lyrics were going to all right

it's really danceable, but what's music order? >> oh, well, that whole, that whole, you know, i was sort of so that song started as me trying to take the out of the world. and then whenever i'm going like that, i always think i should go like that. so i started writing it. >> you get that criticism. >> pop music order owe you, i've not been that way, but i wanted to create a half a verse that was sort of like all the ways you could take the at me, like new jersey's finest new yorker, seemed fine. yeah, we it's just seems like an absurd statement unreliable reporter that speaks like all the hypocrisy of being a writer you

know, in my version of writing there is no fact checking and there shouldn't be whatever i feel whenever i feel it in some of the stories are brutally honest and some of them are utter distortions pop music harder. i think that i was taking the out of the idea that like people who feel like i keep popping up in all these places and then some guy playing quarters just speaks to like em just some personal also. >> jack antonoff. thank you very much. >> thanks for having me the inimitable jack antonoff and coming up bonded by triumph and tragedy, tennis legends martina navratilova and clever. tell me about the unique friendship check your nothing. >> the space shuttle accident is usually not one thing. it's a series of events is that part? wing coming apart spatially, columbia, the full

open and her fifth grand slam i asked everton navratilova to reflect on their complicated relationship chris evans, martina navratilova welcome to the program. i want you to take me back just for a moment to the finals of the french open when you both presented in a joint think capacity, the female trophy was to iga swiatek as she had won what was it like? >> let me ask you first chris, to relive a moment that you first want the french open 50 years ago, 1974. >> i have to be honest, i was not on the roster to present that trophy on this big 50th from may martina was on the roster. and when martina heard that it was my 50th anniversary, she quickly went to the french federation and said, nehmen and inept christie has to present this with me. it's her day two. so that's how generous of a french she

was and we both got to present it, which was it's great so it kind of it kind of was glorifying. not only the fact that it was my 50s, but also of our rivalry over all those years in some somehow some of our most interesting matches were at the french open so it was, it was quite a thrill, martina, that's an incredible anecdote that you suggested that kristi join you, but it does talk about your relationship, your friendship, your rivalry. and i just want to first ask you about the epic battles you fought across a net at roland garros. what stands out to you about some of those matches? >> oh my goodness, there's so many i mean, i'm kristin 75 in the finals. and then we play doubles together and we warmed up for the final together because we were the only people left there and we were such good friends for like, okay, we'll just warm up for the final together. >> okay. so she of course, what the court would you rivalry, your friendship. also

crystallized and took a whole different turn. i think when the both of you got cancer practically at the same time chris walk us through a little bit of you're part of this story. how you both were diagnose what it meant your friendship. >> the last few years of our rivalry is when we really, really got tight because because christiane, we were the only ones left in the locker room every sunday during the finals, and we would look at each other and we finally figured out you know, we're not only competitors where people and martina had feelings and martina had a private life and martina had emotions and so did i and we were very vulnerable with each other those last sunday's that we played in the final. so i mean, i think that's what started the ball ball rolling. and then ironically, you know, martina got had glock answer first, but i mean, i can only tell you about my journey was having ovarian cancer. my sister jeanie died from it, and i

found out that i had the braugher jean, so i went in for preventative surgery to basically get a hysterectomy because i had a 40% chance of getting ovarian cancer. and they found out that i did have ovarian cancer and i did wasn't feeling anything. i mean, that's why this ovarian cancer is so insidious and so sneaky because you don't feel anything. meanwhile, martina was fighting her own battles with breast cancer twice. i believe, and throat cancer and we were going through she was going through radiation and chemo. i was going through chemo, but we are staying in touch and just thinking about how ironic or life has been, where things are happy niger's the same, things are happening to us and we'll tiniest and that's really how we got so close. >> what did you friendship mean in terms of the support that you needed to get through this. >> so we had this connection
