been a breezy morning across the city. the east bay. those winds at times have been over 20mph and will keep these winds through the afternoon. just reinforcing that cooler air later on today. look at your highs around the region. not too hot 60 for half moon bay in san francisco. with that wind. 70s in oakland and in san jose. so we'll head inland and our warmest areas will go into the mid and upper 80 today for daytime highs, with a lot of sunshine around the bay shoreline. we have some patchy fog right now. will increase that sunshine over the next couple of hours. we'll stay in the low 70, but along the coast it will be windy. today. we'll have partly sunny skies and temperatures in the low 60s. our next heat wave arrives tomorrow. heat advisories excessive heat warnings are posted. steph will show you that coming up in a few minutes. drew >> thank you. new this morning in the race for the white house, senator joe manchin becomes the fifth senator to call for president biden to step aside. manchin is an independent, but caucuses with the democrats. he called for an open process to replace biden and suggested

pennsylvania governor josh shapiro and kentucky governor andy beshear as potential nominees. here's part of what he said about biden to martha raddatz on abc's this week. this morning. >> he would go down with a legacy. unlike many people. it's one of the finest and, uh, truly a patriot americans. so with that, i come with a heavy heart to think the time has come for him to pass the torch to new generation. meanwhile former president trump is on the campaign trail with his vice president pick, jd vance. >> they held their first event together since the republican national convention yesterday. here's abc news reporter alison kosik. the former president donald trump returned to the campaign trail just one week after an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in butler, pennsylvania. >> trump and his new running mate, jd vance, campaigning together for the first time in the key battleground state of michigan. the former president

referencing last week's shooting in the first few minutes of the rally. >> i stand before you only by the grace of almighty god. >> meanwhile, president biden, vowing to get back on the campaign trail next week despite growing calls for him to step aside more than three dozen democrats in congress are calling on him to drop out. senators like elizabeth warren are still backing biden, but leaving the door open for an alternative. >> if president biden decides to step back. we have vice president kamala harris, who is ready to step up to unite the party to take on donald trump and to win in november, one of the president's closest allies, senator chris of delaware, says biden is listening. >> i think our president is weighing what he should weigh, which is who is the best candidate to win in november, alison kosik, abc news, new york

former president trump admitting in an interview with fox news he said no one warned him of any danger leading up to the shooting. >> no one told you not to take the stage, no, nobody mentioned it. >> nobody said there was a problem. and i would have waited for 15. they could have said, let's wait for 15 minutes, 20 minutes, five minutes. something nobody said. i think that was a mistake. how did somebody get on that roof and why wasn't he reported? because people saw that he was on the roof. i mean, you had, uh, trumpers screaming the woman in the red and the red shirt. she was screaming, there's a man on the roof. and then other people said, there's a man on the roof who's got a gun. and that was quite a bit before i walked onto the stage. the washington post reporting that top officials at the secret service repeatedly rejected requests from trump's security detail for more manpower and gear at events before the attempted assassination. >> a secret service spokesperson admitted in a statement that the

agency has denied trump's request for federal resources. in the last two years. this comes as pressure continues to push president biden to step aside. democrats calling on biden to step down could have a hefty price tag. campaigns cost a lot of money, and if donations start to go down, the president could be in a tough spot. president biden has visited the bay area five times in the last year for fundraising trips. experts say this region is full of people who consistently contribute to campaign shows. they want the biden or whoever they want the democrats to win. >> they're trying to use their money as a nudge to maybe change who's the standard bearer. but they're not going to withhold donations. it's unlikely in this situation. >> the issue, according to experts, is that the support might not last up to november. but professor michaelson says she thinks big money donors will still fund his campaign if he

stays in the race now, despite donor concerns. the biden campaign told cnn july was the best start to any month for grassroots fundraising, with a number of donors maxing out federal election commission data shows. in june, the campaign spent $59 million and went into july with 96 million left. former president trump's campaign, meanwhile, spent about $10 million, leaving. $128 million left this morning. i'll speak one on one with san jose state political science professor melinda jackson to talk about the 2024 presidential race. that's all coming up right here on abc seven news at 930. now, if you're looking for a job in a way to get involved in the election, usps has opportunities near you. two job fairs are coming up in the bay area so you can find out more in person. one is in san jose on wednesday, the other is in san francisco on thursday. the postal service needs help with process ing

all of the money raised here stays here in the bay area. that's why this is so impactful . and we'll be over at robin williams meadow in just a few minutes for the aids walk, and we'll come back live shortly for that. but right now i'm at the national aids memorial just a stone's throw away from the meadow. uh, this is a beautiful, serene place of repose. really in many ways. and reflection to remember those who have been lost, uh, to hiv and aids, and also to honor those who have played an important role in the fight against it. for example, congresswoman nancy pelosi. so this beautiful little stone park, the, uh, national memorial is here to commemorate those we have lost. and i want to introduce right now john cunningham. they're doing a live presentation. and john is the ceo of the national aids more. john great to be with you. great to see you. dan, what an important day today and what a what a profound, impactful day. well, it is it is, you know,

news poll shows nearly two thirds of democrats want biden to withdraw today, more than 35 lawmakers have echoed those calls. south bay congressman ro khanna is not one of them. on abc's this week, he told martha raddatz that pressuring biden to leave the race could run some voters the wrong way. >> one of the things we underestimate is that joe biden actually has a coalition. >> african american women, blue collar workers, seniors who voted for him. and if he feels bullied out, those voters are going to be feeling that they were bullied out. so it is his decision to walk us through next steps. >> joining me now is melinda jackson, a political science professor at san jose state university. melinda, thanks for being with us. good morning. thanks for having me. so there's a lot up in the air right now. it appears that this is the end of the road for biden, but it also seems like he could wait this out. can you walk us

through what happens next for either option? >> yeah, it's looking more and more likely that he is going to have to drop out. um, you know, the pressure is really mounting . um, so what that would look like is, uh, his delegates, uh, he has about 4000, almost all of the, the delegates are pledged to him. they would be released if he withdrew from the race. and then the question would be, does he endorse kamala harris, um, or someone else? but most likely, uh, his vice president? um if that were to happen, then , uh, the most beneficial thing for the party would be for everyone to unite behind her. um, he may not endorse, uh, he, um, if he doesn't or, um, you know, if we see another scenario, then we would see an open convention where multiple candidates would be likely to be competing at the convention for those delegates votes. um, if he chooses to stay in the race,

then the democrats are going to have to just move beyond this. and get behind him if they have any chance of winning in november. uh, but that's what we're looking at. we're looking at either an open convention or an endorsement and, you know, party coalescing behind kamala harris, most likely, um, or biden trying to remain in salvage his candidacy. >> so vice president kamala harris is the obvious choice for nominee. now, if that happens, what does that process look like? should we expect her vice presidential pick to be announced at the dnc in august? >> yeah. uh, if she is, uh, the nominee by then, then that would be a logical, uh, event to announce a running mate. um and certainly that could help, you know, if she does become the nominee, that choice of vp, uh, would be made strategically, i think, to try to help broaden her appeal to, uh, more of the electorate. that's the typical thing that we see with running

mates. we didn't see that on the republican side this time because jd vance is, you know, kind of trump doubling down on, um, the, the, you know, his message. but i think we would likely see a candidate meet um with kamala harris that would create a strong, broader, uh, democratic ticket with a better chance for november. >> now we're about a month away from the dnc, and it's no question the democrats will likely be facing a disadvantage here. do you think it's possible for the dems to rebuild around a new nominee in such short order ? >> well, it's certainly possible , but perhaps not likely. you know what we tend to see with the democratic party is we have a lot of different, um, interests, competing interests. you know, it's a big tent party, but what that means is that there are lots of different kind of, you know, factions within the party. and historically, we have seen a lot of kind of infighting. um, and certainly

with this kind of situation where, again, you have some, some democrats who are arguing strongly that if biden steps down, it has to go to harris. she's the vice president. you know, she's she's the heir apparent. and others saying, well, well, we'd like to see more of, uh, contest. um, so it's certainly possible that we could see, uh, a strong coalesce around one candidate, but i would say not likely at this point, we're probably going to see another month of, um, you know, some chaos, some debate, uh, some, some competing action. uh, but then, you know, there will have to be a democratic ticket, um, by the end of august for sure. that certainly being the deadline, we've seen former president trump adapt on key policy issues in recent months on topics like abortion, no tax on tipping and crypto. >> but, you know, if biden does drop out, do you anticipate vp harris, if selected as nominee,

will run on a similar platform to biden's or be forced to adapt on issues like immigration and tax reform? >> i imagine her platform will will remain similar. you know, the democrats are running on biden's record. you know, their policy successes over the last few years. um, but but it will be a new campaign. and of course , she's going to have to address , uh, the contrast, um, between her and the republican candidate. um, i think certainly on issues like reproductive rights. uh, harris has been a very effective, um, uh, you know, a ambassador or speaker to those issues on the democratic side, i think she's more effective about talking about those issues then than we've seen from president biden. um and that is an important issue in many democratic voters minds. uh, and an issue where, you know, public opinion shows that the electorate is much more supportive of reproductive choice and, and freedoms than

the republican party stands. so i think we're going to see a lot of emphasis on issues like that, that the democrats, we'll give them an advantage. >> i do want to talk about the assassination attempt on donald trump for a moment. it certainly was a sad day for our country. and now some analysts are asking what, if any, impact it may have on the ballot come november. trump's speech at the rnc started with a focus on unity, but ended with false claims and what some analysts argue as divisive rhetoric. what impact do you think this could have in key swing states? yeah well, obviously it was a dramatic event. >> it was unexpected. it was, you know, a horrible, undemocratic attack on a political candidate. um, the political effect remains to be seen. we still have several months until november. so so this event that happened a week ago is not likely to be at the top of voters minds in a couple

of months. so it really depends on, you know, how this event becomes a talking point in the campaign or not. what i'm seeing so far is that it has increased the loyalty, uh, and commitment of trump's support voters. but they were already support him. right. so just thinking about it in terms of the political calculus, i'm not sure how many new voters or swing voters it would pull over to his side, especially since we're talking about a decision that won't be made for a couple of months now. if he continues with the divisive rhetoric, we know that that that turns many voters off . obviously, he has strong support from his base within the republican party, but he's not going to be able to win the general election with just his base. he needs to be broadening his message and his appeal to win over some of those independents, moderates and in those targeted states. we're

talking specific about wisconsin, pennsylvania, michigan, um, and a few others. and so that, i think remains to be seen. >> and many analysts argue that was his opportunity at the rnc. we now, you know, trump's advisers have really been working to expand his support bowl beyond his base. you know, we've seen efforts attempting to appeal to suburban women. lara trump speaking at the rnc. we of course, we saw jd vance, his wife usha, and of course, um, his former opponent, nikki haley now endorsing him. what do you think this all means? come november? >> yeah, i think that those those, uh, you know, kind of symbolic attempts to reach out to different, uh, constituents within the republican party may help to bring some of those traditional republicans home to the party. let's remember that both biden and trump are pretty unpopular as candidates, and there are a lot of, uh, republicans even, who didn't

vote for trump in the primary primary and voted for nikki haley or another candidate. so i think her endorsement will definitely help to bring some of those voters back. but there are many, um, again, more moderate republicans who don't like trump in particularly are thinking about the fact that, you know, he's now a convicted felon. and, um, and the divisive rhetoric. so, you know, it it really remains to be seen whether those attempts will be effective. but just putting a speaker on the stage at the national convention in july is not necessarily going to translate into affecting someone's vote in november, unless there is consistent outreach between now and then and melinda before we go, one more question. >> some polls after the republican national convention suggest if biden stays in the race, it would bring down democrats in congress. that's certainly the fear among the party, given what we know now, what do you expect the long term impact would be right?

>> well, that is certainly a big concern and a big reason behind this mounting pressure on biden to step down from this race. uh the, uh, contest for control of the house and senate is very close. um right now, republicans have control of the house. democrats have a one, uh, seat advantage in, um, in the senate. and so democrats are very concerned about a republican, potentially a republican, white house and both houses of congress. that would certainly give, uh, trump much more power to push through the, um, his political agenda, which what we've seen, you know, is, is includes some pretty radical, um, uh, proposals such as mass deportations. again, this is something that a majority of americans are not in favor of. and so democrats in congress are very concerned about being able to hold on to at least one of

those, uh, chambers in order to provide some checks on the presidency. if trump does win the white house in november, we will see come november. >> well, melinda, that's all the time we have for now. we thank you for joining us this morning. >> all right. thank you for having me. absolutely >> we'll be right back. i'm janelle murray. >> i'm here with the award winning real estate expert suzanne roche. >> now, suzanne, speaking about my own experience. yes. >> it can be so overwhelming when people finally decide to sell their property or start thinking about it, right? >> yes. janelle and that's why i offer a very unique approach utilizing my psychology degree to help those who are feeling stressed out and overwhelm so that we can transfer from a very stressful situation into an easy and positive experience. and people are so stressed out because of the circumstance they're in. yes. and a lot of them feel like they're struggling. maybe they're behind on their property taxes or mortgage payments. i also help those who are downsizing housing, needing to relocate, want to sell a rental property? also maybe a trust sale, as well

co-host this year. this is chance and snowball, two dogs we rescued. uh, they're great dogs. we thought we'd bring them out. here's my wife, angela. i'll give you a chance. uh anyway, maybe they'll say something a little later. this is such a great and important day. since 1987. literally thousands of people have gathered here at robin williams meadow and golden gate park to do something that is deeply important and incredibly compassionate, and that is raise money and awareness to help alleviate the suffering of those who are living with hiv and aids to help prevent this disease. to help raise money for research, to better treat it and prevent it. and of course, over these decades, a enormous progress has been made in terms of research, in terms of treatment, in terms of awareness, to the point where, thank goodness, aids and hiv doesn't make the headlines. it once did because it's not quite, quite the crisis it once was. that said, it's still very much an important issue and one that needs our attention and our

support because there are still people contracting this disease and people living with this disease. so all of these people are going to help raise $1 million today, and we'd love to get your help. go to sf, dot aids, dot sf aids dot net and make a donation. if you can't. all of these people are here for this walk and the quilts are out to commemorate those who have been lost. and i want to introduce two very important people, friends of mine for a long time. uh, this is robert mansfield and isaac rodriguez. they're both board members. guys robert, once again, another great day. why is it so important that we are still here all these years later? >> do you know it's so important to look at this community that's here? this is what the aids walk is all about. everybody comes out here. we all get together. so we kind of done away with some of the big flash and fancy stuff, and we just bring everybody together. this is so important because people really care and we're here. the aids walk money is unrestricted funds, so it's money that can be used where it's most needed. and our beneficiary teams in town really put it to good use.

>> and it really does go to good use. and all the money raised stays right here in our community in the bay area. >> yes, yes, it makes a big difference. and thanks of course, to our big supporters that gilead abc seven v bio-rad we've got a lot of really important support. you know, support from the community here that really helps put this together. >> well, i know abc seven, all of us have been deeply proud to be a part of this event every year. and all the great corporate sponsors who really help make this event happen every year as well. isaac, you know, this every year there's the same level of enthusiasm and all of the money, as i said, raised stays here in this community. give us an idea of what that money goes to do. >> oh, i think one of the biggest things that that money does is it provides, uh, an education and the ability for a lot of these, uh, aids, uh, beneficiaries or the aids organizations to, uh, service the community. uh, one of the things that we were able to do most recently that we're very proud of is we were able to help, uh, fund the golden compass and, uh, so that they

could do research in order to, to get funding so that they could actually be, uh, full fledged and up and running, uh, organization and serve some of the demographics that still need service in our community. >> and it's important to remember, people still need the help and the support. >> they very much do. they very much do. there's a lot of people that are out there that still need it. and there's certain people that are over a certain age that are still living and fighting, you know, to get some of the things that they need. and uh, the programs like the golden compass are exactly what they're there for. and robert aids hiv, not on the in the headlines like it once was. >> which is a good thing because it really isn't quite the crisis it once was, but that hasn't changed the need. >> wonderful thing that's still important is he mentioned the golden compass. that's ward 86. they're aging with hiv program. there weren't services available and there wasn't money available to do something like that until aids. well, well, another great day. >> another great day, great day. thank you both for being here. thank you again. the aids walk will kick off in about ten minutes. we're going to host that show that, uh, that start
