5:04 am
president trump with obama warning his successor representing blustering and bumbling and chaos. before the obamas others focused on harris's opponent. >> donald trump, trump, donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> total of 24 according to fox tracking, eight speakers included senate majority leader chuck schumer, bernie sanders, others, 24 mentions compared to less than a dozen on economy, border and crime. michelle obama accused trump of doing everything to make people fear her and her husband. he questioned her country of birth. last night trump knocked barack
5:05 am
obama on policy and paid him a comp limp. >> i like him, he's a nice gentleman, was weak on trade. look at what happened to our country, trade was a disaster. i respect him and his wife. >> tonight is vice presidential candidate tim walz headlining the event and hear from former house speaker nancy pelosi and bill clinton. back to you. >> ainsley: bring in vice presidential candidate and center j.d. vance. good morning to you. >> good morning, guys, how are you? >> ainsley: doing well. stayed up late last night. headliners are coming on too late for those who work morning shows, but that is okay, we'll continue to cover it. lots of vibe and energy. how is this working? >> you know, i don't think it is working well. i'm not the target oaudience, bt
5:06 am
when you have barack obama sitting there making his speech and kamala harris is 90 miles away, the party is not unified. we know barack obama forced joe biden out of the race. conflict is buried but there for all to see. for american people, what is demo democratic party about in 2024? it is about hatred of donald trump more than their love for america. they talked about trump more than inflation, more than they talked fw foreign policy, more know that they talked about the economy, that suggests thing that unites democratic party is not shared vision, it is hatred of one person. a person who by the way took a bullet for this country a few short weeks ago. >> brian: two strong suits for you guys is immigration and economy. they are trying to say when it
5:07 am
comes to immigration, the border is better than last year of trump administration and that donald trump told everyone not to vote for that bipartisan plan engineered by senators langford and murphy. what is the problem, do you think it was mistake not to vote for it? >> on the idea that the border is somehow better, this comes from m nipulation of statistics. reason border crossings are lower than last year, they are flying people into ports of sdree. we're in a position that is worst than it has ever been. the border deal was a disaster. i would not have voted for it if donald trump told me you have to vote for this thing.
5:08 am
it codified the worst parts of immigrant, worst part of catch and release. would have done nothing for mexico, nothing for millions that kamala harris be granted parole which opened the southern border. it was a bad bill and would have made border policy even worse and democrats are celebrating this instead of running from it suggests how warped their view is on immigration policy. this is not hard. donald trump secured the border. kamala harris opened it up. american people are smart enough to see that. >> lawrence: i was in chicago talking to voters and made it clear i feel like black males are prime for republicans toic ta. this is what they told me about issues facing the country. watch. >> you're hearing from democrats
5:09 am
are things they have failed at for 30 years. >> most of us voted democrat, that is what we were brought up to do. vote democrat. i don't see no change they say they have been doing. i think to me a whole bunch of crap, to be honest. >> lawrence: will we see senator vance in a barber shop. they can give you a fade. >> well, i actually need a haircut from time to time, maybe i will show up in the barber shop. my message to black voters in the barber shop or out is simple. argument they are making is actually very common sense. they are saying democratic policies failed black community
5:10 am
for a generation. i grew up with a grandmother who struggled to find enough to eat. a lot of families are in the same situation. grocery prices are up, thanks to policies of kamala harris. she says day one she will make groceries day affordable. day one was 1300 days ago and you have not done anything temperature is inspiring you have men in the barber shop standing up saying whatever media propaganda has been fed to us, we have not had better lives and are willing to give republicans a chance. we have to go into communities and say, we're going to fight for you, your wages and jobs and affordable housing and groceries for you and your children, that is what we'll do over next 76 days. >> steve: tonight at dnc, nancy pelosi will speak, bill clinton, pete buttigieg will speak and tim walz, governor of the great
5:11 am
state of minnesota will speak, their vice presidential nominee. you and he will square off on a stage somewhere at the one vice presidential debate, which has been agreed to. have you figured out your main plan of attack against coach walz? >> well, i have to point that out since you asked, of course kamala harris announced she is running from the fox news debate. what a disgrace for kamala harris and tim walz to talk tough and run from the american people's questions and debate. if you want to be vice president or president, you ought to do as many debates as you can, that is opportunity to make your pitch to american people. my approach for one debate it looks like i will have is keep focused on policy. this guy supported rioters in minneapolis as they burned that city to the ground.
5:12 am
he sported defunding the police. i want anybody who watches the debate to come away with recognition i know what it is like to deal with problems and bad policies of kamala harris. we'll make things better if american people trust us with opportunity to do so. that is how i will focus my preparation. >> ainsley: we've been watching old clips of tulsi gabbard deba debating kamala harris when running for president. you are preparing for debate, how are you preparing? what are you doing? >> i'm just reading a lot about the policies that have made people better your honor presidency of donald trump and policy that made people worse under presidency or vice presidency of kamala harris. most americans understand leader
5:13 am
of this your honor ko will unleash american prosperity and restore peace or bury us further in debt, inflation and chaos. best way to make my case is talk about the specifics and details >> political consultants assume americans are dumb, i assume americans are smart. that is best way to earn their trust and get donald trump back to the white house. >> brian: a lot of people are watching and i have watched you do press conferences, few issues you are not comfortable with and you like give and take with people and seem to excel at it. something else will come up today, i'm sure. r.f.k. jr. and running mate are considering abandoning their campaign and joining forces with you guys, what would that mean?
5:14 am
you have looked at the stats, could r.f.k. jr. help? i know donald trump said, i would put him in the cabinet. >> it would be good issue i have never talked to him. demo democratic party of my grandparents that supported his uncle has been abandoned. that party believed in strong borders and believed in a strong national security and believed that we were all part of the same american family. this modern democratic party is focused on division and using division for political power and does not believe in anything common sense like american manufacturing or strong american border. current democratic leadership gone so far in leftward
5:15 am
direction that r.f.k. jr. and that kind of democrat is no longer welcome. i hope he like tulsi gabbard endorses the president. it is about saving the country through common sense and only one political party represents common sense anybody, if is donald j trump. >> lawrence: how do you make the pitch, you are great on policy, american people actually agree with you on policy. but there is that other element, people vote based on how they feel, they need to connect with you. how do you layer good policy with good feelings? that seems to be an achilles heel of the republican party. guys said, they come off cheesy sometimes, how do you make being
5:16 am
a republican or conservative cool again? >> well, the way i do it and this is just my approach, i talk about my family and perform history and try to make people understand we care about this country because we know real people suffer. if you are a strong man at a barber shop, you believe you ought to take care of people and p protect people and get leaders that will make your community stronger and more prosperous. talk about ways our leadership can affect lives of real people. i grew up in a family where there wasn't a lot of opportunity. we couldn't afford private security. why did he need public police? because public safety is right of every american. democrats have decided to wage war on american police.
5:17 am
if you tick through the issues, we believe in common sense and think if you are governed by common sense, every kid, black or white, rich or poor, will have an opportunity at the american dream. make that argument as much as we can and see how it lands. >> ainsley: a lot of people don't know about men on the street, why are you voting, at the fair in iowa. why are you voting for kamala? i don't know, i might change my mind. when you tell them the truth about how high inflation is, compare donald trump to kamala harris and joe biden, when you look at grocery prices, compare them, gas prices, compare them, numbers speak for themselves. when you take to the stage, issues, issues, issues. what do you plan to do federal in north carolina at the rally? >> well, to that point, my sympathy is with every american.
5:18 am
a lot of people are not tuned in, they won't cast their ballot until the day before or election day itself. it is totally reasonable, they have jobs and kids to take care of, they have a life to lead. our job, our responsibility, meaning donald trump and mine, is to actually get out and tell them and make the case our policies will make their lives better. fact they are unsure is we are early in election cycle, they have not made up their mind. in north carolina, we'll talk about national security. whose children suffer the most whenny woo have a weak national security. 13 marines that died in afghanistan, those kids often come from middle and working class backgrounds, they would be here today if we had stronger american leadership. people understand that it is very often the middle class and,
5:19 am
woing clas that bear the burden. we will talk about that in national security contake it by your silence and all context for next 75 days and make our case everyday. i think when we make our case, we will win this race and win in a big way. >> brian: if you have time, try to find tens of thousands of kids this administration has lost track of that came in as unaccompanied minors. barack obama brought about separating kids and families, 80,000 kids are missing. love that to be a focus. >> steve: thanks for spending 15 know minutes with us. >> god bless you. >> brian: can't use the word joy. joy is being used. >> steve: democrats try to paint bold vision for the future with
5:20 am
joy. is it same old message behind a fresh new face? >> ainsley: 2020 democratic presidential candidate andrew yashes ang joins us. ang joins u. . . . . . hi, my name is damian clark. and if you have both medicare and medicaid, i have some really encouraging news that you'll definitely want to hear. depending on the plans available in your area, you may be eligible to get extra benefits with a humana medicare advantage dual-eligible special needs plan. all these

5:27 am
>> donald trump sees power as nothing more than a means to his ends. are democrats replacing to keep same message? here with his take is 2020 democratic candidate "theandrew >> aianna nicole andrew yang. we know where kamala stands, then you have old guard speaking like chuck schumer, nancy pelosi and the obamas. what is the message here, how do they connect everyone in the democratic party? >> i'm particularly excited both parties are talking about bringing back bigger child credit. if people remember getting 3 or 400 per month for books, fuel, whatever you want to spend for your family is a compelling
5:28 am
message. j.d. vance is for it and democrats are going big on it saying 6000 per year for a child, 500 a month, lowering prescription drug prices is widely possible, getting medical debt down. most americans with get excited about this, regardless where you are politically. >> ainsley: it is honeymoon phase, polls show they normally have a five-point uptick during this week traditionally speaking. 41 months into the presidency harris and biden, prices for inflation up 20.2%. under donald trump 6%, obama, 8%. donald trump had the best record. gas prices, donald trump highest
5:29 am
2.81 in 2018, harris and biden highest $4.06, donald trump did better there. mortgages 2.9% when he left office and 7% now under biden and harris. when you look at statistics and voting records, should that worry democratic party? >> i think going to the grocery store is personal experience. massive headwind is people are not excited about economic circumstances. what is to be done. i don't think donald trump has right character or motivation to actually address some of these l longstanding issues. trying to get money into american hands is one approach, it will be tough to massage down grocery prices. this is something americans

5:38 am
achievement, more than the economy, that suggests thing that you unites democratic party is not shared vision, it is hatred of one person, who took a bullet a few short weeks ago. >> lawrence: dana perino has a ton of shows. >> dana: dog name sd persy. >> who now has a son. dana perino, heart to heart when it comes to republicans. as i posed to j.d. vance, there is perception they are not as cool as democrats. how can they connect policy with c coolless? >> dana: i believe this week will be the final of the great jenga game. easy pieces are put up now
5:39 am
everyday will get harder for them, up to the debate. donald trump showed, talk about what is different, what is different is me. i will come and bring something new and he did. he remade the republican party in his image. i think j.d. vance makes a great point. they don't want to talk about the record. when aoc gave her speech, she said, imagine you are retiree and had to come out of retirement to take a job because you couldn't afford groceries. kamala is the one for you. isn't she going back to work because of inflation that caused high prices. president trump has a challenge, how do they figure out way to do the biden-harris administration versus making it a choice between trump or kamala harris. she was there, last in the room for the decisions.
5:40 am
can they tie her to it? >> lawrence: i don't watch reality tv, this seem to be drama. sources tell our people, as well as other networks, the obama play of the have them out here and have kamala harris here and have her campaign in the republican in milwaukee was to not upset joe biden. his feelings are hurt and photo of kamala harris and tim walz on stage with michele and barack obama would anger the president. do you buy it? >> dana: not in the least. super smart strategy to have kamala harris and tim walz at pfizer stadium in milwaukee. the obamas gave her most incred i incredible introduction, her husband's speech was 10der. the speech is not for you and me, it is for people they want to reach out to get them to
5:41 am
vote. they know they have to be in wisconsin to keep this blue wall that president trump is still in the lead and not as much as he like to be. i don't knowledge the drama. i don't think democrats purposely insulted biden by having him go late. >> lawrence: you just think they are inkocompetent. >> dana: yeah, scheduling was bad, last night they tried to start earlier. bill clinton will speak long tonight. dane jared polis and jim masena. >> lawrence: bill and dana live from the dnc. been a long morning already. >> lawrence: i hit chicago barber shops to get buzz on how voters are feeling ahead of november, what they say next. >> everything you are hearing
