a chore. so, i wonder how much they will actually be able to -- i also note that we still don't know what kamala harris says she's going to do. we know she has flip-flopped on a lot of things, but how much this woman is a great person and not actually what she's going to do. so until that gap is closed, i'm not sure how much affect this is having. >> t >> todd: there is much more meaning over this for a party breaching unity, kamala was in a different state when obama was speaking and the biden pro is in a big tip with the obamas warmer bros as they like to call themselves. >> i'm trying to think back when i have seen something like that and i don't remember where a rival event of significant size in an entirely different state -- i don't get the purpose of that.

it look like there was a lot of people in the arena, but it was a bizarre thing. trump went to a live these things and graciously thank them for what they were doing. it was a bizarre thing to run a different event while the ob obama's, by the way, obama back in the day poked very highly of kamala harris when she was a jeep. he visited her in california and help lift her up. that this is another bizarre thing they are doing. >> carley: this was very much orchestrated and to todd's point, and someone familiar with dnc planning told fox news the choice to have kamala harris 90 miles away in milwaukee on the day that she actually had to virtually accept the party nomination and the two most popular people, barack obama and michelle obama made speeches was orchestrated because the obama still not on the white house good side and referring to the

fact barack obama apparently said some behind the scenes dealings with joe biden to step down. that is one controversy about the other controversy is pro-palestinian protest yesterday. we saw people burning an american flag right outside of the chicago or the israeli consulate in chicago, which is close to the convention center. a couple of people were arrested as well. so there is this unity message as all conventions have inside of the convention center, but just outside of it there are protesters who do not align with republicans but more aligned with democrats, they are protesting the dnc and trying to pour kamala harris 'of senate if she becomes the president or to what you think about that? >> we need to remember the first half of this year they were divided as a party. the hamas bombings in the war prosecuted by israel had deeply divided the democratic party and

they have no answer for it. biden was openly attacking israel more than hamas. there are hostages, which beckon jimmy carter's day we talked about how they were held pure they tried to paper over that because at this moment in time we got rid of biden and elaborate this new person, but we don't know what she is saying. bit that has worn out because that risk is still there in the party and will be there all the way till november. >> todd: in the meantime, counter programming programming speaking about crime and safety, fox poll and show voters trust trump over harris to handle crime. and the trump campaign releasing, ," was the most liberal in california and the most liberal prosecutor in the most liberal state." but crime did not view the guaranteed winning issue they thought it would be in 2022 but

what happens this time around, tom, with kamala harris the prosecutor versus convict? >> welcome i will tell you th this, in los angeles the very liberal d.a. will be ousted. he's losing 2-1 to an independent and the latest poll. so, it has been building for years now. in the way the cities are degrading in front of our eyes that are run by democrats, that sin is being visited by democrats and then you add to the border, which many people see as out of control and lola's because it is. it is bigger this time around than last time around, and kamala harris has been nowhere on it. she's not the border czar according to her, even though she was. i think it's been building for years. >> carley: day kicks off her a

month or so as she has tried to make tried to win the election, she said her policies whenever she announces them will be more in the center. that doesn't discount what happened the last three and a half years. do you find yourself scratching your head why the biden-harris administration in green lighting projects like the ones you are complaining about seems to ignore safety concerns, weather for the sea life or whether it is for the people in nantucket who had one of these blades, the shards of it washed up on their beach and close six beaches last month? >> and continually washing up on the beaches. nearly every day you can walk up on the beaches so facing side of the island and pick up debris, whether the size of your hand or size of your truck. the majority of the big stuff has been recovered, but it is just -- the whole thing is a mess from the beginning until the end. you go down the road here now and it looks like new york city on the island with all the

green deal, will your industry survive, dan? >> absolutely not, absolutely not! as of right now, everyday it is a battle between the price of fuel, which is going through the roof, the price of love stirring, the price of insurance and price of everything in my industry climbs through the roof except the price of our product continues to stay flat rate. i got in the price of product, lobster, fish the past several years and my paycheck doesn't increase but everybody else's does. it is not a good -- it's not a good deal for the fisherman. >> todd: it is not a good deal, it is not a good deal. dam, to keep us posted because we will be thinking about you because we love lobster but if we don't have industry, there goes the lobsters, dan, thanks. content creators playing a major role in the selection both campaigns trying to appeal to them. here are some of the things on your screen right there.
