6:02 pm
this weekend, may be sunday according to some reports and so will joe biden once again bow to the democratic party elites or will he actually stand up for the millions of americans across the country who voted for him in the primary? we will monitor operation dump and destroy joe biden in the coming days. first here with more on the man of the hour, donald trump, cochair lowered -- laura trump and the presidents granddaughter kai trump is with us. >> she was incredible last night and we are so proud of her. no one more than her dad and grandpa, my father-in-law. what an amazing job. i think we are going to see her a lot in the future. >> welcome to the family business. >> it is such a delight to have you. your dad was on with me the other night -- on radio today
6:03 pm
and he told me the story, you called your dad and you said i would like to give a speech. >> yes on monday i did. >> this is after your grandpa was shot. you are fishing with your dad. >> i was on the boat with my dad and we were with friends and the boat -- the phone was buzzing and he picked up and the news broke and no one knew for 90 minutes what was really going on and all we knew is he was shot and that was it. >> always at like for you? it. >> it was scary. i wish no one go through that ever. >> i said they just kill him because i saw the blood and i thought the bullet hit the head of. i can't believe it just pierced his era. now i have talked to your grandfather about you and he brags about you all the time, you know that right? >> yes, i do.
6:04 pm
>> i got a granddaughter, she's not as good as me but she scratched does he say that to you? >> he does. >> america needs to know the truth because you are a competitive. have you beaten your grandpa on the golf course and a head-to-head match? >> maybe. i will leave it like that. >> what a good granddaughter. >> that's a great granddaughter can i tell you what i loved that is so true, the candy and soda. my kids love going to visit grandpa and i go straight in and he's got a bowl of candy in his office and he loves to dose them up with candy and then hand them back. >> i know -- i go in his office and he doesn't give me anything. i was on the trump train early. >> i know you deserve the candy. >> you have a big decision. you have college coming up, are you excited about that? i'm not going to get into where
6:05 pm
you're thinking of going but a lot of colleges are recruiting you is that true? >> yes. i'm excited. >> what was it like for you on that stage with that crowd? did you know that tens of millions of americans were watching you? >> i did but once i got out there it was all from the hard. it flowed really easily. i was nervous beforehand but afterwards i got up there and i was able to do it. >> is that like training in 30-foot putt? >> kind of yes. >> you're out of there, your dad told me something else. he said it was your first public speech. >> yes ever. it's a big one. >> that's a really small venue to start out on. >> we go big in the trump family they don't tell any of us of what to do. they threw us out on the campaign trail.
6:06 pm
we're throwing kai into the mix at the republican national convention and she's nailing it. >> the best part of the story to me is that you asked your dad and there's two things that your dad said. my 17-year-old daughter rarely called and said dad do you want to go fishing or do you want to do anything. at that point she is kind of becoming independent. what made you call your dad. >> i finished up golf tournament. kai came in second place and the next day i didn't want to play golf. i was like do you want to go fishing, we went fishing andrew -- it was awesome fishing. we got ten fish. >> what kind of fish. >> i don't know which one is which.
6:07 pm
>> you did an amazing job. you showed poise and grace. you kind of dazzled the nation last night and i hope you are very proud of that. i know your dad's proud and i did talk to your grandpa. what do you him? is. >> grandpa. only grandpa. >> i spoke to him and he is very proud of you are kind i hear about all of your golf. you do know my granddaughter is a great golfer and i was like yes, you told me. you do know that laura's a rockstar right. >> i do. >> my speech, kai's speech we wanted to convey that this is the father-in-law that i know, they grandpa that kino's and my kids know. i think people forget that often so i'm so happy that people got to see this side. >> it was a big moment which you showed tremendous courage. and what for a lot of people
6:08 pm
would be a high-pressure situation, you made into the family business. i think you past the lip -- the litmus test. you guys have been through so much and we've been friends for a long time. you are such a delightful young woman. america kind of fell in love with you last night and you are the star of the show so thank you for coming on kai know you guys have to get over to see grandpa. >> and see eric trump speak. i'm going to get divorced if i don't see my husband. >> thank you both. joining us now is ted cruz. i don't ever get to see you in person. >> normally i'm talking to a tv camera. it's good to be in person and even better to be at an amazing convention like this one. >> kai is coming for your job it. >> she can have it or she's
6:09 pm
better than me already i can tell let's talk a little bit about this convention. your speech last night. we are 60 days away from early voting in pennsylvania, we don't even know who the democratic candidate fully is. >> it is not going to be joe biden. >> you've been saying bad. >> i predict that ten months ago i said the democrats are going to pull joe biden off the ticket , they will replace him with michelle obama is what i predicted and at the time the corporate media went nuts and i was a lunatic. i we are days away. >> i get called the same thing. my sources are telling me it's 5050 still. they are saying the white house is denying it but more than before it seems more real. >> i think it is north of 90 percent right now. the entire democrat party has come out against him.
6:10 pm
you've got obama that's come out against him, you've got the donors and the corporate media. hollywood. everyone is against him. thank about how nixon stepped down. you step down because handful of old bowls from the senate went to the oval and they didn't do so gently. they said either you step down or the house will impeach you and we will convict you and remove you. , the end of the day the hammer the democrats have if they want to use it is the 25th amendment. it takes the vice president. >> so he's not qualified to run but he's qualified to be president now? there was surprise that he's a cognitive mess. senator i don't think anybody in the country ran those tapes of joe more than yours truly. >> everyone who was paying attention new that brightens
6:11 pm
mental capabilities had diminished. they didn't care until they believed he was going to lose. have you heard a single democrat say the man is demented, he's not competent to tie his shoes but he shouldn't be commander-in-chief right now. there comes a time when you take the keys away from grandpa. in this case those keys are attached to icbms. >> arthur frightening thought. >> he was supposed to be on last night but he ditched me to be in the box with president trump. >> he is the president from florida. >> that's true. i thought you gave a very great, a gracious speech. you are the finalist from all my sources. what was that like for you? a. >> it was great. i got to know president trump
6:12 pm
even deeper and i worked with him closely when he was president. and it was great. he had a lot of really good choices. jd is going to be really good. i've known him for about six years, saw him interacting in 2018 and helped us with some policy stuff and then he's gone to the senate. he's one of the smartest people around right after ted cruz. >> they say he was and all the years that he was a professor at harvard, this guy was his best student and you guys don't agree on much. >> we don't but he is an amazing professor and i will tell you like millions of americans, joe biden is driving him away from the democrat party because they've gone so radical when they are too far left for him, that tells you they've really gone off the cliff. >> that's a great point. there is so much at stake here. regardless of what happens to
6:13 pm
joe, i make the point that policy wise, everything is going to remain the same. policies on open borders are not going to change. i think the biggest national security threat we have, economic policy is not going to -- not going to change. the issue of law and order and safety and security, defined, dismantled. that's not going to change. the democratic party does not believe america should be the most dominant force on the world stage where they think we are imperialist. >> i it's one of the reasons for three and a half years they had a conspiracy to cover up his decline because if you are a radical left-wing activist, joe biden is a perfect career politician. generally been a centrist for most of his career. and he is just a figurehead and they hide behind him and implement all of these policies until they couldn't cover it up. the rest of us could see had.
6:14 pm
now they are in a real bind. you make a great point if he's not -- if he doesn't have the mental acuity to be a candidate, al hackner -- how can he continue to be a president. it's going to be kamala harris and she's a legit left-winger. >> he thinks michelle obama. >> i it's a coin flip now between emotional -- michelle obama and kamala. if our democrat i want her, she's by far the scariest nominate. it's interesting, the democrats are circling the wagons around kamala. i think it's about 5050 between the two of them. >> i it's about 90-10. >> if she's your vice president that means you think she could be president. how do you move her out of the way? i don't have deep insights but how undemocratic, they like to talk about democracy. this is basically an interparty coup. [ simultaneous talking ]
6:15 pm
>> i don't care the voters picked you, we are going to remove you and cut off your money. i've never seen anything like it. >> it has no president at all but 60 days outside of early voting in pennsylvania then it rolls out around the country. i haven't spoken to either one of you about the issue of this assassination attempt. and i am angry. angry at the failure of the secret service. i really am. the idea, 130 feet away that's a 2-foot pod, that's a layup in basketball. they knew this guy was a suspect at the time. they had been following him. they lost him. why did they let trump go out and speak? they should have kept him in protective custody. when the secret service director and will somebody please tell joe biden it's a her not to him that was a bad mistake. when she said i bear all
6:16 pm
responsibility, buck stops with me but i'm not quitting and then said it was a sloped roof. why didn't you have eyes on the roof and then we put them inside why didn't you surround the perimeter knowing and acknowledging there was a threat? >> it was an absolutely catastrophic security failure. and i believe if the director of the secret service had a shred of integrity she would've resigned that day and if joe biden or anyone in the white house had any sense they should fire her pure chi should be fired. i joined with a number of other senators demanding emergency hearings in the senate next week with her there and the head of the fbi. marcoux and i were both on a briefing with all 100 senators and the director of the secret service, the head of the fbi. it was a complete cya, they spoke for 30 minutes, talked about every detail of the day. everything except the detail that they allowed the president
6:17 pm
of the united states to be shot. then they had a couple of questions but they cut off the questions quickly and there were a whole bunch of questions. >> she needs to be fired and fired immediately. all three of us agreed that. let's get your thoughts on this. how can this happen in this day and age? >> there is no way in the world that there should be a 20-year-old kid, this is not jason bourne. we are not talking about some secret agent here. some kid climbs on top of a roof 150 yards away and takes his shot. he was identified hours earlier. they can blame it on other agencies, the responsibility of securing the perimeter is the secret service. on not talking about the guys, you know some of these guys. >> they put their bodies in harm's way. as the political leadership. >> that was poorly advanced in terms of security. i want to know is this a one-off or is it becoming a systemic
6:18 pm
problem? the secret service doesn't just protect the lives of presidents and vice presidents. they protect our country. where would we be if that had ended in a live execution of the next president of the united states in front of the eyes of the world. where would this country be tonight? we would be in a catastrophic situation. they also protect our country. that leadership has failed us. why are they having daily press briefings providing as many details as possible? >> how is it that one -- when we have a school shooting almost within hours we know a lot about the shooter and how is it in this case, this happen on saturday it is now thursday and we know little to nothing really about the person. on top of that, iran had issued an assassination order against donald trump weeks earlier. >> that's not new. they've got him and there's a bunch of people that they threatened. here's why it's relevant. there's no evidence that this is
6:19 pm
the guy they would've hired. if you know that, that's even more how can this be possible. if this kid was able to get this off, what would amerindian agent be able to pull off. she needs to resign because she has no credibility. >> i will tell you one less thing and i get this reaction from senator cruz, it cannot be this agency investigating themselves. we must have an outside agency. >> absolutely and we need accountability for the american people. why were there not more agents, lower than nonsufficient agents to secure the arena, why were there not... why. [ simultaneous talking ]
6:20 pm
>> you had people pointing him out. there's a car in the roof with the rifle and while on earth did they let president trump gone the stage, the secret service could have said we had up -- have an active shooter, stay where you are until we detain him. it's a massive failure all along and we hear to zero accountability from everyone. >> both of you good friends of mine though i hate to tell you, he's my senator. >> we tried to get you to come to texas. >> i'm an honorary texan. i'm a floridian. >> good to see you both. we appreciate you being with us. here's what we're doing. quick break while we have a chance and we expect to hear from donald trump, his big address, final night at the convention. stay with us as we continue our live coverage in milwaukee.

6:38 pm
>> thanks for having me on. he is one of my childhood idols. look i think the secret service director should either be suspended or should be fired. i the person who was in charge of that security should be fired. i think there's been some outrage on my side. [ simultaneous talking ] >> democrats are thinking about ... she should be suspended or fired >> i want to hear from more democrats. seriously, i've always said when obama was president we have to protect him. i said all the time and his family. it is just standard to. >> i think you are saying you want to hear more compassion. >> i want to hear more outrage over what happened that should not happen. >> i really struck that the democrats right now and the leaders aren't talking about

6:42 pm
you alone who saved him. we pray for the others that were injured on saturday, for the family who lost their loved one. put your loving arms around them comfort them and made a scents your presence. we stand before you tonight, we say thank you are the provisions you have given to the united states of america. you have blessed to this country more than any country in the world. sadly as a nation we have forgotten who is responsible for all the freedoms, the liberties and the bounty that we enjoy. it is all from you thank you. this evening, our nation is in trouble. we are divided politically, racially, economically with millions of people seeking refuge. you're the only one who can fix the complexity.
6:43 pm

[ cheering and applause ] >> we have eric trump now taking the stage. we are going to carry his remarks.
6:45 pm
>> good evening america. eight years ago my father sat our family down. he spoke of a nation in decline. of dreams slipping away of a future endangered by failed leadership and broken promises. it was in that moment i knew my father had made a decision that would forever change our lives. we realized that we are chosen to step into the arena to fight for the soul of america. he decided to leave behind the comforts of an unbelievable business empire. to leave behind everything he had ever built to answer the call to serve our nation. unlike his predecessor, it was not a decision born out of necessity.
6:46 pm
unlike the current president, it was not a decision that would enrich his family. rather it was the decision made out of love for this country and a deep concern for america's future. [ applause ] my father was clear that it would not be easy. there would be a huge price to pay and the tax would be vicious. looking back that was an understatement. that made up russia hoax, that sham impeachment's, the efforts to destroy an unbelievable company. a company that i run today. the efforts to cancel us, to silence him, to gag his free speech and to drag you threw every radical left courthouse in america, to take his life. threw it all he's shown
6:47 pm
unwavering courage and determination. not just in public but in every private conversation with me and our family. [ applause ] he stood tall fuel not by personal ambition but by a profound love for this country and a love for all of you. that man is my father, that man is the 45th president and soon to be 47th president of the united states. at that man is donald trump. [ cheering ]
6:48 pm
>> each time i've stood on the stage america has been at a dire crossroads. people began to doubt the promise of america. our economy was struggling, jobs were scarce, our standing on the world stage was weak at best. veterans were forgotten. our military was in shambles. our educational system was broken. ranked 30th in the world. he could no longer tolerate an administration that handed $150 billion to iran. a country that chance death to america. or witness the continued attacks on our constitution and our religious liberty. or see the disrespect in our unbelievable officers were being disarmed, defunded and persecuted each and every day.
6:49 pm
he could no longer stand to see words like christmas stripped from public use or the pledge of allegiance removed from our schools. my father saw potential where others saw despair. donald trump builds the new york city skyline. he did so during a time when businesses were turning away from the city he loved. crime was rampant. the streets were dirty but he had the midas touch and he turned the streets and neighbourhoods into gold. he faced every challenge with tremendous vision and grit. as he did during the 2016 election, he rolled up his sleeves, remained unapologetic and did not care to be politically correct. [ cheering and applause ]
6:50 pm
he restored hope. he restored a voice to millions of americans who had been ignored. he restored the american dream. under my father's leadership the economy climbed to record heights. jobs were created at an unthinkable pace. unemployment reached historic lows across all demographics. wage growth sword, he cut taxes for hard-working families and businesses. slashed regulations. we saw the greatest 401 k. increase in american history. people bought their first forms -- homes... they started their families. my father made the united states energy independent with the lowest gas prices in decades. my father made the united states save, our borders were closed,
6:51 pm
there was peace in the middle east. the terrorists were dead. my father made the united states respected again with the courage to walk into countries like north korea with the courage to impose tariffs on china and with the courage to tear up trade deals that cost americans their jobs. he brought manufacturing back to america. small businesses flourished. he did what he promised. he put america first. we were winning. donald trump made america great again. [ applause ] he also created a movement. a movement that threatened the special interest in the
6:52 pm
