11:43 pm
state university. >>you've been watching this stuff. what it what do you think? >>well, i mean, barack obama's obviously a democratic superstar and the obamas together bookended and really put together. kamala harris putting are over the top in the early days after joe biden announces he's not going announce in not going around but >>it's michelle obama whose even more popular and really % is, if you will, the person that helps connect and put her over the top. so you get barack obama on one hand in terms of putting over the top with the democratic insiders and then use michelle obama to really put you over the top with a load of voters, particularly democratic women. that's hugely important. and you contrast that with donald trump. so in that sense, there's a lot of opportunity here for democrats to expand beyond just the base that we saw, but that you that you also haven't been hit hard. >>and you haven't been hit back that that by the republicans. and remember. >>they go low. we go high. that famous mantra of michelle
11:44 pm
obama's. let's see what montrezl she drops on behalf of kamala harris. that'll be an important element tonight as well. >>says we have you want to ask you your thoughts on last night night it was the biden night. of course. how do you think he's feeling tonight? >>why not make a there in california? they developed pretty good, but they didn't run late grant. and i think one of the elements of this is like a political junkies like us were watching. but you have to stay on time and on target. and there's that element of things you want to celebrate the president. you know, you want to move past that for democrats. they want to get a bump out of this in terms of what's going on. however, you have to stay disciplined and your message and kamala harris and to malta had a great couple of weeks. we are now 4 weeks out from a place where the race was completely different. it clearly has fundamentally shifted. can you keep that momentum going? so you take that baton passing last night, she appears on stage for 2 minutes. that's important. she's in milwaukee
11:45 pm
today. hugely important state for wisconsin. but you have to start really. >>moving forward in your message in a stronger way and they start turning up the heat on that. while the other side is also doing the same. that will be very interesting to watch as we go into thursday and then passed thursday to see what the bump how the school breaks closes and how each campaign response it back to california. governor gavin newsom. i had a big moment. >>where he you gave all of california's delegates to kamala harris. >>he announced the the delegates coming from the great state of nancy pelosi. so a lot of key players in this. what's going to happen again avenue? >>yeah, you know, look, gavin newsom, as someone who asked kamala harris is star rises. gavin newsom has nothing to lose their political cousins, if you will. certainly nancy pelosi as the political godmother of both of these individuals along with the great willie brown. in addition to those 2, what you have here is a rise of kamala
11:46 pm
harris that if she wins, gavin newsom start doesn't get eclipsed. if he is, he doesn't perform well and she ultimately ends up losing his political star still rises. now, privately he might about whether it could have been him or what could or should have been. but but he really has had difficulties as he's gone on to the national stage. so his supporting role as public role of being behind her 100% and being behind joe biden before he got out that absolutely serves as interest longer because the democratic party is shifty and even of kamala harris were to be elected. the 47, the president of the united states, gavin newsom isn't out of that place where not accept that are not available. he would have a central role the importance of kamala harris, a success there latch together in that sense and can move forward. and that's what we saw at the start of that tonight. you also don't want to be to california centered. you don't want to be too liberal left coast kind of stuff because republicans will leave all over that. gavin newsom and his team understand that as do, of course, kamala harris and her what do you think would be fulfilling for him?
11:47 pm
>>the position in her administration, secretary. >>i mean, yeah, yeah. i mean, he kind has a like an executive mentality is not like a senator. you know, every senator, things that can be president. that's not my baby resident. but if not going to be a center and he's not going to someone who's going to be in the house, this is a guy who has an executive role. and, you know, look, let's be frank. he's got a big ego. so he thinks he can solve a lot of problems. he has an upward trajectory and that upward trajectory in a role in the cabinet. that special assistant to save the world or whatever it's going to and also he and his team built some of those mona by, you know, going to israel after the events of october, 7th going to china and talking to the leader of china talking about the environment and about global climate change. and it's that kind of big role together. >>with say somebody like arnold schwarzenegger as partners to deal with global climate change just as an example. it's that type of galactic problem that you would like to solve and have a role. and that would be an interesting element to watch
11:48 pm
as well. electric. i like that term and just one more time before we leave you, you know, because michelle obama. >>you know, there are a lot of names that were bandied about before it was finally decided that it would be kamala harris. you michelle obama, the herbs saying the year when they go low, we go high. >>it's taking a different tack. do you think she's going come up with another line that really kind of flips that on its? >>because, yeah, democrats are pushing back now. yeah, they are. and look, i mean, they're pushing hard at this idea that they knew that things like, you know, donald trump is a threat to democracy. that kind of thing that wasn't working well with swing voters with suburban voters in the purple people saying they're weird, does work and cuts that short. >>how that theme is handled and how they build on that theme is a learning tool that kamala harris has that hillary clinton didn't have. you know, what was her last name or last name with her. but the change your campaign theme 7 times during the course of the presidential election in 2016, donald trump said with make
11:49 pm
america great again and obviously barack obama hope and change. so michelle obama can help with that theme. what is that thing look like is unclear in short and then move forward. that is where someone like kamala harris can be helped by michelle obama or by grant steph curry. our isha curry alum on lebron james for that matter. that's where things can get. really, really interesting, especially as we move also into the nfl yet the beehive and the tea swizz it swizzle. that's going to be key as yeah. well, i out so cool. when you talk like that's the only time on had it is fascinating, though, that for all of his popularity in the democratic party. >>former president obama is probably going to be eclipsed tonight, as you alluded to, at least in terms you know, reaching whatever the independent voters are out there by michelle obama. so she is such a powerful messenger. he really married and, that we all thank you,
