>> greg: we are out of time. check out president daily brief.com. our studio audience... i love you america. >> it's midnight on the east

coast, 9:00 here in los angeles and this is america's late news, fox news at night. [ cheering and applause ] >> trace: >> here is -- he is here tonight to show his courage and his defiance against someone who tried to kill him. you will not take this man down. >> trace: the former president also says he's rewriting his convention speech to focus on unity to bring the country

together. meantime president joe biden in a rare interview tonight denying he played any roll in the heated political climate when just one day before a bullet grazed the former presidents year, we heard something quite different. >> have you taken a step back and done a little soul-searching of things that you may have said that could incite people who are not balanced. >> i'm not engaged in that rhetoric. >> trump is a threat to this nation. >> trace: daily wire cofounder ben shapiro joins us with his thoughts. but first team fox coverage. live at the rnc. we begin on the convention floor. good evening. >> what a first night of the republican convention we had. while there were no shortage of headlines, the biggest moment was what you were just playing. the place of rupturing as former president trump walked into the arena, an indication that he was

going to get a hero's welcome even before the events of saturday. the former president certainly feeling the love and support from those republican delegates. this is a huge change from what we saw four years ago as there was no convention due to covid. for the former president this was a chance to show the american people and prime time what he's able to offer them. while yes the camera was wear on him during the 10:00 hour, the biggest headline was trump's decision to tap of the junior senator of ohio, jd vance, as his running mate. he had been on the shortlist for this job for months but it came down to the wire with vance only finding out that he got the job just 20 minutes before it was announced. he had been vetted, it was a lot of considerations. the tee leaves showing he was going to jet asked my going to get the job but it's official. is going to be a lot of scrutiny on him going forward but he talked to sean hannity and he

believes there is a great responsibility about his new role. >> you've got to be a person he can trust and rely on to actually advance the agenda. at the most important job. of something happens you have to be ready to step in that office. that's one of the most important rolls of the vice president. i donald trump is going to serve four very good years. >> trace: >> he may be getting a warm welcome here but the democrats are stepping up new attacks on hamper we've also learned that his potential counterpart is going to be heading to two battleground states this week, an indication that the campaign continues. a big focus was on workers and the economy. we will see if it resonates in the polls going forward. >> trace: thank you. let's bring in the daily wire cofounder ben shapiro. great to have you on the show. welcome. what you think about the former president trump picking jd vance as his vp.

>> it's an audacious pick by president trump. it's a move to double down on it as a philosophy. he's extraordinarily high iq, really articulate. a bulldog on behalf of the president and that is something different then many people were looking for. is not as much of a unity pick as he is a militant moved by president trump to say that he is going to impose an agenda that he likes once he gets back into office. >> trace: we will get back to the rnc in a moment but i want to get your take on the interview that the president biden did tonight. here's your headline in the daily wire. biden says to lower the political temperature, it rings hollow and sure enough biden was asked about exactly that by lester whole. >> have you taken a step back and done a little soul-searching on things that you may have said that could incite people who are not balanced?

>> i don't think, how do you talk about the threat to democracy which is real when a president says the things like he says. >> trace: he talked a lot about it but it doesn't appear as if he plans to drop the temperature 1 degree. >> that's exactly right. he said that it's time for everyone to cool it down but he apparently needs everybody except for him. at the part that rang hollow. he could've said i'm a part of this, my rhetoric, basically characterizing my opponent as a would-be dictator who is going to end democracy and that is over the topics. i oppose many of his policies... and we live in a democracy that is going to outlast both of us. he keeps doubling down on this message. the reason he keeps doubling down is because it's all he has. he does not have a winning message on his own agenda, his own administration has been

disgraceful on a wide variety of issues which is why he's carrying a 32 percent approval rating right now. all he has is this accusation for donald trump being orange hitler. what else does he have left to cover or throw a president trump >> here's the biden campaign, there statement on jd vance. donald trump picked jd vance as his running mate because he will do what mike pence wouldn't on january 6th, bend over backwards to enable trump and his extreme agenda even if it means breaking the law and no matter the harm to the american people. the threats just keep on coming been. >> that's also an astonishing accusation given that it makes no cents if president trump were to get to the end of his term after being elected, there wouldn't be the same issue because he will than have served two terms. they have to keep ramping up the threat of trump. the ghostly thrive trump because the minute the american people see donald trump for what he is,

a very effective president and a man who will be president this time around rather than the existential threat to republic, donald trump wins and he wins big. >> he saying he will use his speech on thursday night to unite america. good strategy been? >> an amazing strategy. president trump should do the thing that joe biden refused to do. everybody has been waiting. there have been so many times where people say is this the moment where donald trump became president. it was a joke because he was. if he comes out and says when you nearly got shot and i... it's time to unite america around principles that we all hold dear. our families, our ability to thrive in a society. so when i call for taking down the temperature a little bit, he would take the ground right out from under joe biden and effectively beat up and of

biden's campaign. >> when you say you -- it changes your point of view, are you talking about life point of view, it changes the form -- former president altogether. >> i think that president trump is where he always was politically. on talking about your view on life in general and the value of life and the value of actually holding close people you treasure including your fellow americans and i think that's likely to be his message going forward. >> trace: great to have you on the show. thank you. >> thank you so much. >> the anticipation building toward the big moment, the speech thursday night by former president trump and now official nominee says he is changing up his acceptance speech to focus on the unity he is urging his surrogates to stick to the issues. live in milwaukee with the latest on that. >> let me start with this. the former president, his appearance tonight was a surprise. jd vance, the vp pick a surprise.

and the former president told people earlier today that he had more surprises up his sleeve. buckle up, it's only monday. here on the floor i me tell you what i saw when the president walked in. i saw somebody crying. i saw a lot of people who were emotional. i saw one man who was holing up his phone face time you left one so that they could watch in realtime the president walking in. i talked to another man who told me look this is a miracle that the president is here right now and it's so important for him to see the president here on monday instead of thursday because people wanted to know if he was okay. they wanted to see it for themselves and he told me if anything was different, if the president had been hit on saturday then the country would have been lost. also have some news for you on jd vance that you were hearing first. vance hitting the campaign trail immediately. i'm told he'll be in oklahoma

for a big fundraiser. going to be hosted by senator mark wayne mullen of oklahoma. plans are underway but i can guarantee you he will hit the trail even sooner before that as well. a lot of busy events for him coming up. >> let's bring in jessica anderson and trump 2024 surrogate harrison fields. thank you both and welcome on the show. new york times columnist david french, just talking about jd vance who's going to be out campaigning said this about the vance pick. he's the vice president pick for the base, for the people who want to see revolutionary disruption in the american government. this is the pick of a very competent presidential nominee. you can see here, you look at this harrison and you can see they changed it from a -- from assaulting democracy to a revolutionary disruption and american government.

>> thank you for having me on tonight's. jd vance is a threat to the left because he stands for these policies. his story is a story from rags to riches. the story of america -- american exceptionalism. that your zip code in the story of your upbringing does not define how you were going to turn out in this country. threw god and faith you can overcome the greatest of struggles to become a united states senator and now the nominee for vice president of the united states. he is the definition of the american dream. emblem medical of my family, one generation away from growing up in the projects. i think he is a uniting pic, he's one that is strong on the issues, he's beloved in his home state of ohio and he's an american hero who served in the united states marines and the people in milwaukee are extremely happy to have him as trump's choice.

>> he's knocking to be here long. he's out on the campaign trail in the morning time. glenn youngkin said this about trump. >> friends, could this election be more simple? it's common sense versus chaos. it is strength versus weakness. it is not just republicans who see this. >> you can see a theme here jessica. the whole thing is after the assassination attempt we have now strength versus weakness. i think we're going going to hear this throughout this convention. >> very much so. i thought the governor's words were actually spot on tonight. something that it reminded me of, the day and two days after this assassination attempt to, have not seen anyone on the right burn down buildings and disrupt, have protest, destroy businesses. you see a call for unity, peace,

strength, coming together to protect america. not to destroy it and that is the difference that we see here from milwaukee. the energy in the room is vibrant, people are enthusiastic and happy and the calls rbl. they are a plea to make america better and return it to a state of greatness. i think president trump was right to come out tonight. he settled any of the nerves that we might have had going into thursday. getting the jd vance pick out front and centre it sets the tone coming off very devastating impacts of this past weekend's events. >> i wonder harrison what you think. she says it sets the tone and how important was it for the former president to come out in that arena tonight. >> it meant everything to everyone in that arena. i too saw people crying. i saw grown men that were just in all. i will never forget that moment. president trump continues to show resilience. the strength than american needs at a time when we are just

desperate for a leader that shows strength. that we can trust to lead us into a new american age. president trump is that candidate. we remember what life was like under him peerclo inflation, a secure border. peace deals around the world. a better america for all of us. minority communities were prospering under president trump and now their communities are flooded with illegal immigrants because of the policies of joe biden and kamala harris. seeing him meant everything to us and we are honoured and blessed that god saved his life. >> i want to go back very quickly to joe biden. do you think this push to replace joe biden clearly has stalled, do you think it's done? >> only joe is going to be able to answer that. i think you've got democratic daughters that are very unpleasing that they are actually disappointed that biden hasn't come out saying let's have a redo.

he said i don't want to second debate so he's clearly uneasy. i today and the momentum of the week here in milwaukee is going to put even more pressure on the democrats who are very much disjointed, unaligned and not ready for the fight in november. >> thank you both for coming on, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> i've heard this this morning from democrats sending me messages saying don't act like donald trump has changed just because somebody tried to kill him. he is still the same person. you can to let that persona hide who he is. >> so much for the calls to lower the temperature. let's bring the author of come on man... joe to you first. the media lowering the temperature about jd vance. they said the following. >> went to be part of a movement

that is filled with hatred and grieving. >> he has now a toxic presence in american life. he has a barnburner. if you were in ukraine right now you are terrified. if you are an immigrant you are terrified. he's a divider and... donald trump is pointing the republican party in a very scary direction for the long-term. >> trace: nothing but love and well wishes from the media. >> this is what we've been hearing the last nine years about don trump. this is no surprise whatsoever. they will go down this road with jd vance. the good news is if you are saying -- staying sober and you want objective journalism, nobody cares what these people say anymore. the trust in them is like gas station sushi in the way you would trust that if you were to buy that and actually eat it. that's where we are at this point. they want to go off on jd vance and ignore the fact that 48 hours ago the former president

of the united states nearly had his head blown off. only a millimetre of a head turned saved him and they go on television, go ahead, no one cares anymore. >> if you thought differently about this, here is abc news making this point. >> the president and the biden campaign are planning to make this point that they believe trump is still a threat to democracy. >> they already are. here it is again and again today >> they are not backing down even in the interview that joe biden dead, he's not backing down from that same message. you will not take any responsibility for the rhetoric and they are squarely putting it on the hands of the republicans. i don't think that it's going to go well because number 1, the republicans made it very clear based on the actions tonight that they are going to take the high road. they are going to be focused on unity. they are going to be the ones

that really look like they've learned something through all of this and things have changed. i americans have changed. it's not that we've changed our policies or beliefs but we've changed the way we want to engage. >> morning joe got pulled off the air this morning. they call it stunning on this uniquely impactful morning. msnbc pulls its signature show for fear that some jack wagon panelist would say something inappropriate, pathetic and probably a wise move. that's what msnbc does in the morning. >> management obviously was petrified that either joe scarborough or any of the people they have on their own a regular basis going to say something that would obviously embarrass them at a sensitive time when the -- win the former president was nearly assassinated. joe scarborough said not too long ago that if donald trump is elected, that he will execute

generals, execute political opponents. set it with a straight face. he should have been pulled off the air quite some time ago. i get disagreement over policy and scarborough i guess is -- is a democrat now or is saying what he... but to go that personal and make predictions like that is a whole bowl of wrong. they have a real problem because they continue to criticize the president this way on such personal terms, hyperbolic terms , terms that aren't based in any reality based on the president's first term. >> he is a world-class genius at marketing. the fact that the two things he had to think about in the moment was my breathing and where is the hero shot is really reflective of who he is. he has a brilliant marketer. that photo is everything he

wants to communicate. >> that photo and others could really propel him for the rest of this campaign because they are becoming an... >> absolutely. i sort of resent the undertones of that because donald trump talked about he had to remember two things. deal with what was going on but he wanted to reassure the people that he was okay that we we were going to be okay and go on. that's what he was trying to do. yes, he has theatrics and the images absolutely stunning and iconic, but what he was trying to do was lift up the people that were out there to support him in that moment. i think it's important that we ... and not how others are trying to put their own spin on what that was. >> thank you both. coming up, a big win for donald trump after a florida judge dismissed the classified documents case against him and new questions about how a would-be assassin was able to

fire a clear shot at the former president. and later in the nightcap, trump is finally revealed his choice of a running mates. ohio senator jd vance, former never trump or complete the ticket, getting the nod over doug burgum, marco rubio. what you think? is he a good pick for vice president? and why. let us know. we will read your responses coming up in the nightcap.

>> the florida judge overseeing former president trumps classified documents case has ruled that special counsel jack smith was unlawfully appointed and has now dismissed the felony charges against mr trump. this international correspondent kevin corke is live with more on that story. >> judge cannon found the ag simply didn't have the authority to appoint a federal officer with the kind of power wielded by special counsel jack smith. he's out of there. you will recall in the documents case when president trump was indicted on charges that he wilfully retained sensitive national security documents at his estate down in florida.

after leaving office in 2021, they also accused him of obstructing government efforts to retrieve the material. however, it should be noted that the tug-of-war between outgoing president and the national archives is fairly common here. but in this case, the trump team was still negotiating the return of some materials when the archives and the doj decided they had waited long enough. prosecutors claim the documents included material related to u.s. military, intelligence and nuclear matters. the doj says it will appeal the ruling. it won't likely be decided before voters head to the polls in november. >> that's a big point. thank you. we are now learning more about the investigation unfolding in pennsylvania into the attempted assassination of former president trump. >> we are standing outside the infamous historic crime scene here in pennsylvania.

you might be able to see some of the headlights from law enforcement that are still guarding the scene. tonight a senior law enforcement source tells me that a suspicious person was flagged to local police at the rally for acting strangely before the gunmen opened fire which caused police to begin a foot chase for this person. one report says the person was acting nervously and pacing near the metal detectors. this is notable that the suspicious person was flagged at a separate location away from that rooftop that he climbed, raising more questions about whether the alleged shooter could have been stopped. i senior federal law enforcement source tells fox there were multiple radio transmissions describing a search for a suspicious person after citizens reported this to local police. a local law enforcement leader confronted the individual at the rooftop. here he had no known criminal

record in this state but he had a job working as a dietary aid south of pittsburgh. people said he was doing his job appropriately what he was described as a good student in high school. we've learned that the gun was an ar style gun that his father had purchased over a decade ago. >> thank you. let's bring in criminal defence attorney... you look at all these reports. law enforcement spotted the shooter some say 30 minutes before the shots were fired. nothing happened. this investigation is revealing some amazing things. what do you make of this information? >> not to make light out of it but sometimes we tell people you had one job to do. the secret service had one job to do. within that is to... local law enforcement generally has a responsibility to protect the peripheral areas from the

protected party president, vice president candidate. in this case they dropped the ball completely for one particular reason, the line of sight was not blocked by either an apparatus behind -- behind the president or something to stop any rooftop access. it was a direct line of sight that in asked mike that did not require the shooter to move around before expending the firearm in this case. it was a stationary thing, the depressing thing about it is it gives all of us a sense of insecurity and fear. this morning i had an opportunity to speak with a number of high-ranking individuals with the san diego sheriff's department. all of them were absolutely disheveled and in a poor state of mind. as we began talking about this it became very clear that they believe local law enforcement looks horrible win in fact secret service was in charge of hurting those kittens as they say. and the...

law enforcement was hanging on that rooftop and actually identify the shooter seconds before the shot rang out. the quote from this morning with my deputies that i spoke with, they said they put their hand on their badge. when we swear to uphold the safety of the community, we greet -- agreed to take that bullet, especially for the president of the united states. >> the cases growing, we are getting more and more information. i can't let you go before i talk about the documents case being dropped. jonathan turley said this about that this morning. >> if you were to have one case dismissed, if you had to have a wish list, this would be at. i've said from the beginning, florida was the greatest threat to donald trump. here smith was relying on established law. they will likely appeal this to the 11th circuit. some judges are going to disagree. we don't know whether this will be upheld but eventually it has to go to the supreme court.

>> would you agree with that? would you add anything? >> this decision was really a separation of powers issue. this is the executive branch appointing an individual to enforce the law without any legislative oversight whatsoever. either through the appropriations for the money being used or by an appropriate appointment of this individual. this is a separation of powers decision. we've seen this theme through the supreme court throughout this tendency at this point in time and that appeal, while it may be filed, is not going to be fruitful just as clarence thomas has already given out sort of a crumb of the way this -- the supreme court may go. i do not disagree with the statements by him, he is spot on. >> so the president out of legal jeopardy at least until after the election. >> i believe yes. >> up next our guest was a witness to the attempted assassination of donald trump.

in fact he tried to help some of those who were shot at the rally let's bring in dr james sweetland. thank you for coming on tonight. i want to know if you can tell us what did you see, what did you hear and what was your first instinct when you heard the shots? >> first of all, thank you for having me on. i've watched your work for many years. i was in the bleachers on the left side as he looked at the stage where donald trump was on and i was below a jumbotron. i was with the crowd, it was a bright sunny day. everybody was enjoying themselves. it was like a rock concert. when he came out he spoke, he spoke for a few minutes and then he brought on the diagram of the illegal immigration. he turned and pointed to that

and i was standing up underneath the jumbotron with a friend and said look he's pointing out us, take a picture. it was a joke. he then turned back to the audience and turned around. at that time, three shots rang out. it sounded like firecrackers to me initially. there was maybe three or 42nd pause and then it was followed by about four more pops. i like everybody in the bleachers turned to look to our right over the field from the line of trees to see where it was coming from. i then turned back to seat secret service piling on president trump. they quickly became a human pyramid of about six secret service agents. by that time i heard a voice of a woman from the stands just 30 feet away down to my right, down on the benches saying he's

been shot. help, he's been shot, he's down. >> this is the firefighter correct? >> that's correct. but it was indeed corey. >> i'm sorry for interrupting. did you think at the time that there was a chance to say -- save corey? how bad was he at the time? >> when i got to him, there were people that were hunkered down. there was a large pool of blood. there was brain matter there. i did a brief examination of him. he had a bullet wound just above right here and it looked to be fatal. when you were in the field and those, you do what you need to

do which i got bystanders to help me get him back up on the bench so i could administer cpr. he had no pulse. so i administered cpr for about two minutes. >> when you heard and you looked at corey, and you knew and heard the president might be head, did you think the worst? >> i thought the worst. what was interesting as i was doing compressions on corey, i heard a roar from the crowd behind me. i didn't turn around or i assumed there was something going on behind me and it was a joyous rower. i didn't know until i turned around. two police officers came up and took him off the bleachers.

i was performing cpr at the feet of his wife and daughter. i will never forget the look on their face when i looked up at them. it was grief, being appalled and still a look of hope. i remember blurting out to them, he's being taken where he can get help. i then turned around and president trump was already off the stage. i then turned to my friend who had come down and said how is trump. i said i saw some blood on his cheek. and i said was he able to stand up and walked -- stand up and walk off and they said yes. i assumed the cheers where the fact that he was able to get up. i wasn't aware until later that those cheers where it when he gave the fist bump in the air. that was what the crowd wanted to know that he was okay. >> an awful experience for you.

everybody around you said that you were trying your best to become a hero in that thing. we wish his family and all of his loved ones the best. thank you for coming on sir. >> you are very welcome. >> coming up the role that young voters will play in the presidential election and why so many of them are turning mag a why do some things have to be so complicated?

we don't know either stanley... but at least when it comes to dental care aspen dental makes getting new dentures and implants easier. with the technology and expertise to give you the right fit and $0 down plus 0% interest, if paid in full in 18 months. making things as simple as they should be. it's one more way aspen dental is in your corner.

>> busy night laying out the party's economic platform at the republican national convention in milwaukee. we are live with the highlights from night one. good evening. >> good evening to you trace. so many highlights on day one of the rnc is starting off with donald trump's first public appearance since saturday's attempted assassination. he did not speak but his presence alone with his bandaged right ear and fist pumps sparked a thunderous applause. earlier during the roll call, states pledging their delegates to trump, it was his home state of florida with its 125 votes that officially put him over the

top as the republican nominee for president. and moments later in a dramatic reveal on his truth social platform, he delivered the announcement everyone had been waiting for. choosing jd vance to be his running mate. there was a roaring applause as the 39-year-old vance and his wife made the rounds on the convention floor, shaking hands and taking a few selfies. throughout the day and night republican leaders and invited guests rallied the crowd by focusing on the parties economic platform, including among those guests, the head of the teamsters union, sean o'brien, marking the first time ever ate teamsters president has spoken to the republican national convention. back to you. >> thank you. let's bring in former michigan gop gubernatorial candidate and host of the tutor dixon podcast, tutor dixon and a host of parked on fox nation, season seven is out now, you don't want to miss

ed to. thank you both for coming on. it's kind of amazing because they wrote this headline and it really is a headline that shows some of our young people in america are kind of gravitating toward the former president. reads why america's zoo rumours are turning to mack. they are moving toward trump and i'm wondering because these are your people, are you surprised that this is happening or is this something you think it is expected because of high cost and so fourth. >> i'm a millennial trace. >> you look so young. >> thank you. i am surprised about this because i think that is a generation that is the first to be offended. but i actually kind of understand it because so far they've been served this narrative that trump says offensive things, he's been taken off twitter and indicted. but now they are seeing a juxtaposition between strength and weakness.

they saw president or former president up there on stage given under duress message to the american people. to stand up both physically and mentally and be able to deliver this message in a way to say fight, not against your political opponent but fight for the future of america, for unity and then they kind of compare that to the clips of joe biden that they've been seeing on social media that paints a much different picture. >> the daily mail says the following here. they say jd vance brings fresh perspective and younger voters to the gop. does it bring young people? is that a good pick in your estimation that jd vance is now part of the ticket? >> absolutely. all we've heard about is age and now we are the group that is bringing in the generation that

has known everything and taught us everything and guided us with everything and the next generation as well. so this can carry on, so faith and freedom and american values can carry on. that will be in jd vance. this is an -- a phenomenal pick for donald trump. when you look at the zoo rumours and young people who are coming along, it's because they are being offered hope. >> you talk to some of these young people and they can't buy things and they say we need a change. donald trump told the new york post... i'm supposed to be dead. the doctor said he never saw anything like this, he called it a miracle, by luck or by god. many people are saying it's by god that i'm still here. i'm wondering if you think this has changed donald trump personally,'s politics or anything. do you see somebody who's changed? >> i think yes at least for the

short term from what we witnessed. i think we really understood that when he told the washington examiner that he ripped up his speech and he was going to take aim at joe biden but after this happened he wants to present a message of unity. i don't know if that some think that donald trump would've put aside in the passed. i'm sure there's going to be some fire between the two of them. he's going to bring up joe biden a little bit but the fact that he's invigorating his fan base with a renewed sense of passion and it was previously coming from frustration with the current administration, but now we've got a rally for the future of our country and he's going to present a front of unity that is really what the american people want. i think you will see that and continue to play that. >> joe biden said on nbc that he did not pay -- take part in this hateful rhetoric. your thoughts on that. >> just the day before he was saying we need to put trump in a bull's-eye we know that's exactly not true.

he said over and over again that donald trump was a threat that we had to take down donald trump at any cost. when you have that kind of rhetoric, i've had this kind of rhetoric against me. you have no defence and people automatically feel they need protection from you. so this is how you end up seeing a young, radicalized 20-year-old boy get up on a rooftop and take a shot at the former president and the future president. this is outrageous to think that the democrats are refusing to say we've made a mistake, our rhetoric has been too strong, we need to back off of the idea that you will never have in america again if you have a certain person. there are no great threats to this country, we are protected from that. >> thank you both. >> i was sceptical of donald trump in 2016 but president trump was a great president and he changed my mind. i think he changed the minds of a lot of americans because he delivered that peace and prosperity. >> we want to know what you think. were you surprised at the vp

pick given the past president -- past criticisms of the former president? what you think? let us know online and we will read your responses coming up in the nightcap.

>> we're back with the nightcap crew... tonight's topic, that's the ticket. donald trump announced jd vance as his running mate over other front runners like doug burgum and marco rubio. do you think jd vance is a good pick? a go to vice presidential pick and why? lee carter let's start with you. >> i had mixed feelings in the beginning because this really is a double down decision. he is going full on trump and i think that is what he wants the message... the more i thought about it, jd vance is someone who changed his mind about donald trump and his a lot of people are up in the air. going through and hearing how he switched over, made is going to. he's got a lot of support from unions and i think things that would really benefit him. in the end i will say smart pick

>> you go online today and you hear a lot of scuttle. chelsea gabbard's book is numbe. today by a bunch of these books and bring them to convention? >> i've been singing her praises for a long time. i think that's the right pick. made a fine pick and jd vance would've been okay. we will see how it works out but i don't think most people don't vote or vote for the presidency based on the vp pick. >> did you ever think at any time that may be nikki haley might get the nod? >> not after the words that were exchanged. that does happen in politics. sometimes words are exchanged, we saw it with kamala harris and joe biden. i wasn't surprised that she wasn't on his ticket but i think jd vance does have the energy to balance out trump's energy. he's humble, calm and i think it's going to work out for them.

>> was jd vance even money in your mind to? you think somebody else was equal or where you kind of leaning toward jd vance? >> i think i sort of knew that it would be jd vance. i think he's the perfect example of somebody who was -- donald trump essentially worked for him. he works for me and you. when he was president he worked for jd vance and jd vance said i don't like him and then he worked for him and he said he's a good employee, i'm going to not only work with him, i'm going to work for him myself. i it's the perfect example of unity in our party and it's the best way for us to go forward. >> i like it jd vance. he is young, he is not impressionable. he showed a willingness to change his stance on very important things. but most importantly, he's he'sa strong rust belt candidate that will help the presidency. and i like the fact that he hasn't been institutionalized

in the world of politics. he's a breath of fresh air. i think that relates to a lot of voters. >> yeah. joe concha, we just lost joe carter. well, there you go. so we asked what do you think? do you think j.d. vance is a good vice presidential pick? the answer is yes, 90%. kind of interesting. patriot dads said trump trusts him, so i trust him. according to kerry, he's fine, but don't think he brings new voters to the trump ticket. we talked about young voters, so don't think strategy wise that he was the best pick. terry says absolutely. >> he lived the story that here in america, you can work hard, overcome hardship and become successful. and salty. traveler says, no, he picked him to win ohio, but he will lose many independents, especially women, to kennedy, which will be a vote for biden. and dorian says, i like vance, but i'm concerned with losing a senate seat. no house and no senate means trump is handcuffed. and finally, we have dan, who says seems like a good guy

with a great story, would prefer a little more time under his belt, would have preferred a candidate more like burgum or youngkin. >> i should admit that back when we all did this before, i said i think nikki haley might be might be the surprise thing that didn't happen. thank you all for joining the nightcap. the nightcap. than >> america's late news. when the sawdust settles when the sawdust settles and the engine some roars, t. you care about is a job well done. done. from harbor freight, something from harbor freight, something about the job feels differen your wallet. whatever you do, do it for less. at harbor freight. >> the cell provider that was breached has my social from the credit check. >> think of all the places they can expose your info that lifelock monitors millions of data points for identity theft. theft. if there's a problem, we fix it .ani' .ani' >> guaranteem i'm sasha. i'm sasha. and toda with you the secret to making you . and that secret is by our editor. therknow thate are a lot of dayl
