3:04 am
from support. and we also spoke to some of them off to this analysis and saying that he will be a great taken now, especially also city to center from ohio. that's also very important, is that the spring state very important state. also, i had of the presidential election in november with both donald trump and go by and try to gain as many voters as possible before the election. and of course, a very young man as well and otherwise old the election. and i wanted to ask you also about the rest of the day because it was a big day for the trump campaign. for the judge actually dismissed a case against trump. can you tell us about that? that's right in the news broke even before the convention stopped at the federal judge, judge con, in and also appointed by a former president. donald trump said that the special counsel i know for the to even bring this, it costs a flight case and up and that is a vote of this course was something that was applauded by donald trump, himself on to socially is that the basis assigned to all the others what he called,
3:05 am
which one should stop right away. he is a campaign of clothes immediately send out a press release saying that it was a very, a good sign. so we see, even though we have not seen him here in milwaukee landed already here, donald trump is in the walk in wisconsin already, but we only expect to hear from him here on states on thursday for his in texas acceptance speech. but of what was, it's a very important useful the trump campaign that is really going through momentum. you can say is we're waiting to hear what a former present you as on the don't some will say here at the states here in milwaukee wisconscin on test w correspondence, benjamin alvarez, cuba as the republican national convention in milwaukee things. and for more, let's cross over to daniel, increasing and associate professor at the school of media at the university of north carolina and chapel hill. thanks for joining us. so while senator j the vans,
3:06 am
he's now on the 2024 ballad. as former, the president donald trump's running made and now his vice presidential pick. so what message would you say that this sends about trump campaign this time around? well, 1st of all, thank you for having me. i, i think probably what this suggests is trump is looking for a young political firebrand, one kennedy, who very much has been aligned with trump's overall message, whether that's on immigration or stolen 2020 election, j events has proven a ton again to be a very reliable surrogate defender of the president in congress and president joe biden, whose campaign chair labeled vance and his views as extreme. what would you make that? well, i think anybody who denies the results of
3:07 am
a free and fair election is extreme. it's an anti democratic extreme is to try to prevent the peaceful transfer or the holding a power. so, you know, probably just from a social science perspective, from a small, the democratic perspective, any time a candidate or any party leaders reject the results of free and fair elections. it's very dangerous terrain for democracies to be in. to this interesting perspective on this is the political science and the angle there that the denying the results of a free and fair election is extreme. um, i could see that perspective. on the other hand, trump had a choice of, perhaps more extreme characters within the republican party. vance was actually a critic of trump in the beginning saying that trump was taking america to a dark place. so you don't see any sign here that there is some version of moderation on trump's ticket. well,
3:08 am
i mean there were certainly many other choices that were less extreme. there are many republicans, for instance, who looked at the 2020 election and said trump last mitt romney is a great example. you know, the person who ran strongest against trump, nikki haley is another great example of somebody who i think would be a clear voice of moderation within the republican party. that we need to embrace democratic norms that we need to get back to a free and fair elections, which every court in united states and said that, that we have and, and we need to be able to continue to not demonize our product. um, all of which i think the selection of j d bands sort of rejects, which is the voice of more democratic moderation and was the party. and it's pretty amazing that all of this is happening not even 2 full days after an assassination
3:09 am
attempt on trump. how do you think briefly, if you could, this might affect his campaign in the next 3 and a half months as well? i, the association attempt was uh, a risk act of a political violence. and i think what we need now are members of both parties to, to become statesmen and states women. and to clearly reject anti democratic violence, anti democratic rhetoric, including political violence including attempts to undermine public confidence in the election system. so i would hope that trump really embrace is free and fair elections. and i hope that we turn the back of the anti democratic tide that's growing in the united states day increase from the university of north carolina. thanks very much for being on our show. thanks for having me. and let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. voters in
