don't go anywhere, my friend allie picks up with more special coverage of 100 days until the november election, next. good evening, it is sunday, july 28, i am ali with a special hour of political coverage as we cross 100 days until the election. what a difference a week makes. just seven days ago, joe biden announced he was exiting the presidential race but and an oval office address on wednesday night, he explained his decision, saying it was time to pass the torch to a new generation of leaders, and out seven days into her campaign, vice president, harris is running with that torch like an olympic sprinter. after a week of racking up enough commitments from delegates to become the de facto democratic nominee, doris campaign announced today that it has raised a stunning $200 million in one week. it was a sign of new enthusiasm for the democratic ticket, because 66% of those donations came from first time contributors.

to top it off, more than 170,000 people have signed up to become campaign volunteers. this one week democratic party turned from doom and gloom to hope and change also seems to have discombobulated donald trump and his maga faithful. for one, he seems to be chickening out of the scheduled september 10th debate with kamala harris, but there is another more vexing issue for trunk, some of the gop's favorite lines of the top for harris are falling flat. they tried making fun of her laugh and her metaphorical use of coconut trees, only to see the galvanized [ inaudible ] this spring into action and turn all those attacks into mediums and videos that make harris look cool and unbothered, funny and relaxed. and if you have no idea what kamala being brought means or what some people are being

coconut pills, don't worry, because your kids or their kids probably do. and if you are part of the growing number of adults without children, you can probably take too kindly to jd vance's newly resurfaced personal attack on you that you have no direct stake and america's future. and then derisively referring to kamala harris as a childless cat lady. pollsters expect the share of childless cat ladies in november to spike as proof that this country is as much theirs as anyone else's. and all of this is starting to show up in the polling. new abc polling this morning show some interesting insights. last week, kamala harris's favorability, take a look at this, these numbers have moved a lot. her favorability was 35%, 46 percent of americans view her unfavorably. today, 43%, on favorability down to 42%. the rare active american political figure with a

positive rating. meanwhile, both trump and vance have seen their favorability decline in the last week, despite this ball coming on the heels of the republican convention, which is supposed to give a boost. and here, because we all need to remember what is truly at stake in the election, was donald trump's message to a gathering of religious conservatives in palm beach on friday: >> and again, christians, get out and vote, just this time. you won't have to do it anymore, four more years, you know what? it will be fixed, it will be fine, you won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful christians, i love you, christians. >> let's put aside the my beautiful christians think for a second, donald trump is literally telling voters that if they turn out and vote for him this time, he will fix it, so they don't have to vote again. how do you think he is planning on doing that? do you know, jamie raskin of maryland, congressman, great to see you as always. because he is so full of bluster, these things fall by the wayside and we move on.

this is a former president of the united states, running to be president of the united states, who literally told a crowd of people, if you vote for me now, you won't ever have to vote again. i don't know that we can just drop this and leave it aside, i think we have to dig into this a little bit. >> here you have got the least highest and least ethical president anybody can ever remember, the least ethical politician anybody can remember, who is just trying to pander to christian white nationalism, saying vote for me once and we are going to not break 1000 years of messianic christianity. and look, the stakes here are deadly serious, but in your intro, i think you made the critical point, which is democrats are having fun again, we have recovered our sense of humor, and president biden has opened this up to a whole new generations of political leadership and activism, and the young people are pouring into our party. i just got back from tennessee,

ali, where i was speaking to the democratic state convention there, there were about 800 or 900 people, celebrating the last dinner for chairman remus. all of the activists and politicians were there, and it was a joyful experience with music and comedy on laughter. donald trump was actually across the street, i think addressing the crypto convention, and people kept making announcements about how there was a multiply convicted felon in the neighborhood, but that security was on top of the situation. and so, you know, there is a new path in everybody's step. on the democratic side. and it is just remarkable to see how electrifying this change has been for our party. >> and i really am intrigued by how kamala harris has gone up with a message about a bright future coming together, and dealing with that future, as opposed to the dwelling on the existential dangers to

democracy, but it still falls upon some of us, including you and me, to talk about that x essential threat to democracy. there was a report about three weeks ago that revealed a former u.s. defense intelligence agency and employee named ivan has compiled what he calls a deep state target list. it has got about 350 people on it that he wants to see arrested or swatted or in prison, should donald trump win the presidency. he raised the alarm about this when it happened. if you like ancient history, because since then, somebody tried to assassinate donald trump, and joe biden stepped out and kamala harris is in. but this is happened in the past where people have done unsolicited things for donald trump, then they suddenly find themselves in government positions. i think it is something we need to think about. somebody has put out a list of people, you're on it, i am on it, who should be arrested and imprisoned under a trump administration. >> well, the extreme right-wing movement has an attack on our democratic institutions, and

it's being accompanied by a return of political violence, and especially here. and this is a former military guy who has compiled this list of people who he has targeted for retribution when they believe they're going to be coming back to power. and so, the idea is to intimidate people, to terrify people, and to try to throw confusion into the ranks of the democrats, but we have tremendous solidarity and unity and focus on our side, and we have gotten familiar with the violent threats and the death threats, and we should understand that it is not just against democrats, liz cheney has been targeted, adam kissinger has been targeted. you know, they want to attack anybody who does not accept their cult of personality gathered around donald trump must we have got to protect everybody. the democratic party, we are

fighting for kamala harris because she is going to be a magnificent president, but we are also fighting to defend the practices and institutions of democracy generally, and the progress of democracy in the future. >> are you a bit shocked at the enthusiasm, the fundraising numbers, the volunteers, the grassroots organizing? ben shapiro called it manufactured enthusiasm, except it is coming from all these disparate quarters that wouldn't have been able to manufacture it if they have gotten together to do so. >> it is opposite of manufactured, it is completely organic, unlike what you see with donald trump's dwindling crowds of people over on their side. look, joe biden beats donald trump by more than 7 million votes. 306 two 232 in the electoral college in 2020. what is the difference between 2020 and 2024? well, right now, kamala harris has revived the anti-maga coalition, and we are expanding the anti-maga coalition with 12 or 13 million new, young voters

were coming into the process. i got this program i'm working on with my friend maxwell prost, it's all over the country, democracy center, we have more than 1000 high school and college kids who joined us this summer, or knocking on doors, they are registering voters, their doing stuff online, and they are becoming this next-generation of progressive democratic activists all over the country. and the enthusiasm is real, it is genuine. if they want to say it is manufactured, that's cool, they should continue to kid themselves away for the next 100 days. >> congressman, good to see you as always. i'm going to be speaking to your better half in a few minutes. i don't know if you're sharing a camera or not. >> i understand that, thanks for having me, ali. coming up next, we are going to explain why some black men say they like donald trump despite his racist rhetoric. could bp harris change that calculation? when we come back. x [ music ]

now that joe biden is out of the 2024 base and kamala harris is moving full speed ahead with her presidential bid, black voters, let's remember propelled biden's 2020 campaign, are expressing a range of feelings about the shakeup. to some, there is tremendous excitement and hope, for others, it is a little more complicated. charles coleman junior recently held a roundtable conversation with a group of black men of a range of ages to take their temperature on harris and donald trump. >> by show of hands, how many of you know a black man who has expressed to you that they are committed to voting for donald trump? okay. for the brothers who have told you that were said that to you, has the emergence of kamala harris change that? >> no. >> why do you think that is? >> i spoke to a young man who

is probably below the poverty range, and i think he has a minimum wage job, good brother, talk to him all the time. he told me he was voting for donald trump because donald trump gave him a stimulus check. and i said, you know, there are a lot of issues to that, and donald trump didn't give you a stimulus check. he received it from the government. but the bottom line is there is so much miseducation and misinformation out there that he really believed that donald trump gave him a stimulus check. so, it's a problem out there. >> my guys on the trunk train, it is more so dealing with the wealth gap kind of perspective. so, my guys are concerned about the interest rates, right? they feel like with interest rates increasing, it is harder to acquire properties and things like that, which is internally how most of them earned their money, through real estate, so you know, the

country now dealing with inflation and things like that, there thing is trump is going to lower their rates. the current head of the economics department now, he has already threatened on day one that he is going to fire that guy. so for them, that is there thing, i need that guy in there. i would like to see the democratic strategy behind the interest rates as well, but that is my strong supporters' main issue. >> i would say most of the men that i know on the trunk train, they just want something different from the status quo, and they feel as though trump can bring that. at the one thing that i would say is just look at his history, look at his track record and see how different that is going to be, and it doesn't look good for black men. it started with him calling for the execution of the exonerated five. like you can't just negate all of that history just because you want something different, you know what i mean?

because you want the stimulus and all that, don't do it, those are my words. don't do it. but that is a simple message. >> that clip was part of a follow-up to the msnbc special, black men in america: road to 2024, it aired back in february, a very good special, you can still catch it on peacock. i want to bring in my friend, charles coleman junior, the only reason i ever get to go anywhere is because charles comes in and takes care of my show for me, so i appreciate it. you and i are never in the same place, so it is great to have you here. what strikes you there, charles? these were not men themselves who were voting for john, they all seem to understand who their friends who might be were motivated by, and this seemed to be in productive conversations with them about how to move the needle on the conversation. what did you take away from that? >> well, ali, i think because there is a misconception that everyone is going to latch onto her candidacy because if

anything, it is important to understand that black voters are not a monolith, and there are a variety of different perspectives and concerns that are not associated with our identity as black men that people are leaning into as to how they're making and evaluating this decision. there is another conversation about the level of pressure they are receiving from community members to just get on board, and there were some who expressed that pressure exists, but i still want to take an objective look at her as a candidate, and interrogate with even at paramount's upper policy and platform in terms of what she wants to do. so, that feeling of not being a monolith of something, i think many black male voters are identified with, even as they understand them and it of the current moment. >> it is a remarkable story given that donald trump leans in to this white nationalism thing on a regular basis, but it is an important conversation, people think what they think and they can't be dismissed

among the reasons joe biden decided to drop out of the presidential race were his sinking polls in must win states like michigan. now, with kamala harris at the top of the ticket, a detroit news poll this week shows the race is dead even. michigan could very well be the tipping point stayed in the selection, and joining me now is the chair of the party, laura barnes. great to see you again, last time you and i spoke was when president biden had just held a rally in detroit, it was remarkable rally on a friday night, he had his campaign back on track. and before he dropped out, he and his allies cited his support from the black

community as a reason why he could and should stay in the race. people calling for him to step aside, we were told that was an affront to black americans. now, here we are, a couple weeks after you and i last talked, it is a different world, there is a great deal of enthusiasm for kamala harris from all sorts of demographic groups. how is this playing out in michigan? >> i have to tell you, i haven't seen this sort of enthusiasm and a very long time, it reminds me a little bit of obama enthusiasm, to be honest with you. the excitement we are feeling on the ground, i think we have got almost 6000 new volunteers, folks who have stepped up to volunteer would have never volunteer with us before. we have seen a surge of folks clicking the donate button and ving us money on the grassroots. it has been terrific, sort of overwhelming a little bit for the team, but we prepared for it, we built a strong organization here, and we're seeing the surge of volunteers and turning them into doors. we have talked to over 150,000 voters this weekend, it has been beautiful.

>> and you do have a strong operation in michigan, this is a place where you have remarkable statewide success. your governor, who a lot of people have thought of and continued to think of as a vice presidential candidate, has said she is not leaving michigan, but you got an opportunity there to take what you all did in the last election, in which you leaned both into not just abortion, but the anti-democratic impulses of some of the republicans were running statewide. how do you translate that and get people out? because there were a lot of people in the michigan primary who voted uncommitted. >> you know, the story we tell over and over again is the contrast between who the democrats are right now and who the democrats are and who the republicans are, and the threat that the republicans are to the rights we have fought so hard here in michigan to protect. we know that given the opportunity, the republican ticket will get into that white house and rollback those rights, take away those abortion rights that we worked so hard to get, take away voting rights even. you heard him say this weekend after this election, his

supporters won't have to vote again because he is going to take care of it. these are scary words that are coming out of the republican ticket, and we have got to remind folks of just how frightening that is just how dangerous that is for americans and michiganders in particular. that is a conversation we are going to have for the next 100 days. >> i started the show talking to jamie raskin about that weird thing that donald trump said, my beautiful christians, if you vote in november, you're never going to have to vote again. it is very easy for us to dismiss donald trump's nonsensical musings, but that is not really nonsensical, telling people you won't have to vote after the next election because he is going to fix it is dangerous. >> it is frightening, and the fact that it is coming out of a man who was president of the united states and wants to be president of the united states again should really frighten the voters, should frighten people about this democracy and the fact that he and his folks are to it. it is real, he says that in ridiculous ways, he sounds kind of crazy when he says it, but he means it, it is true, he

wants to do it, he wants to roll us back to a place we frankly don't know and haven't been and certainly aren't willing to go pick well, you have got a lot of union members in your state, a number of unions have come out, as they did for joe biden and endorsed them, and number are still waiting on kamala harris. i spoke to sarah nelson this morning, a labor leader in this country, she did make one thing clear, she said a guy like mark kelly is a nonstarter because he wasn't behind the pro-act. he is now, by the way. but as far as union members in your state go, what is your sense of what that "veep" sticks look like? >> you know, i think a lot of folks in michigan trust the vice president, having been such a terrific vice president for self to make the right choice for her. and i know she is weighing all of those issues, all of those things that will be important of electoral front, but also making sure she has got a vice president who can truly be a partner to her and the way she has been a partner to joe biden so can i think we trust her to

make this decision and i think she's going to make a strong decision that folks here in michigan will be able to get a hybrid >> good to see you as always, i expect we will have this conversation many times in the next 100 days. >> happy to come back anytime, my friend. >> the chair of the michigan democratic party. joining me now, michigan's favorite most of the rumble with michael moore podcast, michael moore, a guy i haven't gotten a chance to talk to in a long while, but nobody knows the michigan union landscape better than he does. first of all, good to see you. welcome back. this race flipped on its head in the past week, democrats have gone from in many spaces despondent to enthused. excitement coming from all over the place, what you think of it? >> everybody should be excited, this was an incredible week and i think it is going to continue. i think there's going to be one surprise after another in terms of how well vice president harris is going to do. this was an excellent move, joe biden did the right thing. history will remember him for it. and if it results in us having our first woman president, even

better. so, yeah, i think it is all great. and i was listening to your conversation with our state party chair, miss barnes, and you know, let me say this, i am not frightened by donald trump. there is no reason that he should ever go back into the oval office again. we live in a very different country now, different from even eight years ago when he was first elected. elected, thanks in part, to michigan. yes, okay, that bad. the shame is still hanging over me, as a michigander. but the candidate and her campaign made a decision in 2016 to not visit michigan, to not visit wisconsin, and we lost michigan, wisconsin, and

pennsylvania, and that was the whole difference right there. and now, any analyst that you look at for this year's election says -- michel goldberg wrote an excellent column in the new york times, she said essentially, you lose michigan, you lose the white house. critical. we are talking about 300,000 arab and/or muslim voters in the state of michigan. biden won the arab-muslim vote in michigan by more than 60% in 2020. the last poll i saw from two weeks ago, less than 15% of the arab/muslim vote in michigan will vote, at that point, for joe biden. >> we saw the uncommitted vote in the primary, 100,000 people voting, saying i would typically be a democratic voter, but i'm not voting or i'm registering my frustration with joe biden. i will say, after meeting netanyahu the other day, not presiding over the -- whatever that was in congress, kamala

harris sounded substantially more empathetic toward the cause of palestinian civilians who are being killed through no fault of their own than joe biden. >> absolutely. but it's not just empathy, because palestinians right now in gaza don't need empathy. they need a stop. they need a stop to us. you and me, taxpayers here in the united states. we are the bank for netanyahu and this war. we are funding it, we have armed him. that makes us responsible for the deaths of -- nobody knows the number now, but the common number of people say is over 40,000 civilians, many of them children, have been slaughtered with my tax dollars and the armaments that we have sent there. that has to stop. and biden right away, he knew that he had made a deal with the wrong guy, and probably

shouldn't have trusted netanyahu. and netanyahu has played him and biden hasn't known how to get out. kamala harris has a way to get out. she is a new, fresh voice, but she also has a history of the sort of thing. just the fact that she did not show up -- i was trying to think, when was there a time when the vice president, who is the president of the senate, and there is a joint session of congress, doesn't show up? that doesn't happen. and we have had tony blair and we have had the pope, i mean, there are other people, but i went back actually, i think i found one or two instances in the last 20 years where the president of the senate didn't show up. what did she do on that day? she went to a party meeting in indianapolis. okay. she was there, by the way, it was a convention of a sorority. but i mean, i think netanyahu

got the message that he is not going to be able to play her. so, it will really be up to her. but i really feel very strongly about this, that she and her vice president she will pick, who i sincerely hope -- i mean, all the people they are talking about are good people, but josh shapiro has not been good on this issue with gaza. he has been very much against the protests -- the pro- palestinian protests here in the u.s. he is also, where they enough, in agreement with certain parts of the educational planks that are in project 2025. i mean, people should really check into this, the campaign needs to back him on this. we don't need a jd vance situation that trump is in now, with buyers remorse, and i think this will hurt michigan if somebody who has been essentially pro-war on this should not be her vice

president. >> what is your sense of who it should be? we have got some unions who are still holding out to get more assurances from kamala harris, do you have a sense of who it should be if you're looking at it from a worker or union perspective? >> okay, just from a personal perspective, pete buttigieg, this past year or so, he and his husband moved to the town in michigan where i live now, where his husband grew up, so he is now an official michigander, and i think were there places just a mile or so down the road, okay, that has nothing to do with how i feel, i feel very good about pete buttigieg. in fact, when i saw him on bill mark a week or so ago, he was incredible. >> it was a very good exchange rate >> you know what i am talking about, yeah. so, i think he is good. or cooper, the governor of north carolina is good.

but right away last week, i said, what would be wrong with two women on the ticket? why not our governor? >> she says she is sticking with michigan. a lot of people think it would be a good idea. >> we are in desperate times. and sometimes all of us, if called, need to step forward if we really believe we are trying to save the democracy. >> she has demonstrated an ability to win across lines and take on some of the important issues of our time. michael, good to see you as always, out of time. let's continue the conversation, it is was a pleasure having you on the show, michael moore. >> it is good to see you again, and go, canada. >> [ laughter ] thank you, sir. michael moore. we need to talk about the economy, because on paper, things are great, even booming. so, why do a lot of americans not feel what the facts show? we will tackle that disconnect when we come back. >> [ music ] >> [ music ] supporting your - oops - energy, immunity and metabolism. and yours too! you did it! plus try centrum silver, now clinically proven to support memory in older adults.

i thought i was sleeping ok... but i was waking up so tired. then i tried new zzzquil sleep nasal strips. their four—point lift design opens my nose for maximum air flow. so, i breathe better. and we both sleep better. and stay married. under president biden, our

economy is one of global envy. according to the u.s. labor department, the annual inflation rate closed out at 3% in june. 3% more than a year ago. that is the lowest it has been since 2020. the unemployment rate, 4.1%, that is down significantly since its record peak of 14.8% in april 2020, during covid. a little bit unfair because covid was covid, but take a look at where it has gone since then. i have lost count of the number of consecutive months of job growth, wage growth is outpacing inflation. your wages are growing faster than inflation is. our country stands out from the rest of the developed world as having one of the strongest levels of gdp growth, yet despite these facts, and they are facts wealth in america is not distributed evenly, it never has been. and that is a major continuing problem. many americans are feeling great about this economy, and some of it is real because of the high cost of real estate, of rent, health insurance.

but some of it is said by a dishonest media narrative about a week economy. here with me to get to the bottom of this is sarah bloom raskin, former deputy secretary of the treasury, it is great to see you again, thank you for being with us. look, this is real. on one hand, there is a disconnect between the facts and the message. on the other hand, there are some americans who legitimately are saying you can talk all you want about stockmarkets and wages and employment and all that, i am not feeling it. i am paying more for food and healthcare and threat. what approach does one need to take to get as accurate a message out there about the economy? >> so, you are exactly right, when you look at the headline numbers, they're performing really well, and particularly inflation. inflation has come down dramatically, and that is absolutely terrific. and at the same time, at the same time, we have to realize that these headline numbers don't necessarily mean that the items and the prices of the items on a person's shopping

list are coming down. and partly, this has to do with the fact that 60% of americans are living paycheck to paycheck. and what they need to be putting on the list, on their shopping list for what goes into their shopping basket is going to really vary, okay? and we are going to have these variations, we are going to have variations in different regions, we are going to have variations among different sectors, and these variations are real. think about it just from a household level. i mean, a family that has just brought a baby into their home is going to have a different list of expenditures than a family that is sending their child off to college. so, the items in the shopping basket are going to barry, and that is a little bit of what is at stake here. policymakers are driven by the aggregate numbers, sort of the topline numbers, the average experience.

but of course, that is an average, and we live in an economy with many, many sub experiences that are extremely valid and that we have to make sure we are paying attention to. >> so, that makes the conversation about the economy is good and the economy is bad a little bit of sort of empty calories, because ultimately, what people need to understand, or i think they get, is that there is a lot of wealth out there, there is lots of abundance, there is lots of stuff going on, they're just not getting it. i think the average ceo wage versus worker wage is 190-1 or something of that nature. they feel the unfairness in the economy. it is not about the economy at large, it is about whether they get their fair share for what they put into it. >> that's right, that's exactly right. and when you take on the task of trying to find the right metrics here that can underscore what the experience is like for people living in this economy, there is an interesting one that i am

actually quite heartened by, and it is to this administrations credit that the gap between the state with the highest unemployment rate and the lowest unemployment rate is narrowing. okay? so, that kind of goes to this notion of how do you drive an economy that is inclusive, that is actually going to -- where you're going to see these benefits working up and down the ladder? and you pointed out earlier, ali, that the greater heterogeneities in income and wealth, in other words income inequality, those heterogeneities are actually going to make this task all the more harder. so, it is a challenge and it is a challenge, but it is one that i think, if policymakers pay attention to, they're going to start to move the needle on. and we see that even in this

administrations focus, really on investment, right? so, when you actually combine some of the short-term work that has been done by the fed in tightening -- tightening interest rates, but if you combine it with longer-term strategies that actually are doing things to create jobs -- >> were talking about infrastructure, semiconductor manufacturing -- >> all these things, the things that are actually necessary to enhance productivity, to actually enhance an inclusive productivity, one that is distributed widely in the economy. when you pay attention to those things, you start to tackle some of the issues that we have with these disparities of really what is going into the shopping basket. >> always a pleasure to talk to you, thank you for being with us, sarah. sarah bloom raskin is a former deputy secretary of the treasury and break points to help us understand these issues. two next, we are going to talk

100 days to go until the election. the contrast to the two parties cannot be more stark. tony me now is senator amy klobuchar of minnesota, who knows a thing or two about this, because she ran for president herself back in 2020. this is a remarkable thing, senator. for senator harris, she has got experience, she has been the vice president, but to jump into this race and beware we are a week later is surprising to a lot of people, including me, how this has gone. >> well, you just think about where you were last week at this time, when everyone was digesting this, i have been saying for a while that if president biden made that honorable decision that he made to get out of the race, that kamala harris would be the candidate. and that ended up

being right, and i think a lot of that has to do with the fact that she has the receipts, she is ready to run as a candidate, she is ready to govern, and you look at what happened. she has raised over $200 million in just this week, recruited hundreds of thousands of volunteers. in our state, when donald trump and jd vance came to our state yesterday, they were greeted by two polls. one showing that she had risen up, survey usa, 10 points ahead. and another one, after numbers that were one or two points was a fox poll showing her six points up. i don't know if those will stay, maybe they are too soon, it is an incredible shift and a week as there is just so much excitement about kamala harris as our next president. >> you see, that's the good part, because that is hard to manufacturer. some have accused the democrats of having sort of a manufactured enthusiasm, but

you see where this is coming from. white women for kamala harris broke zoom the other day, and there are obvious different groups that are coming out and saying what they need to do. what now, when all of that comes down, because these things do sort of mellow out after a while, you know, we like to say this is a marathon, not a sprint, although it is a bit of both, right? we are 100 days to election day, we are about 60 days to early voting in some places. what, in your opinion, as someone who has run for president before, what has to happen now to solidify this and continue that momentum? >> well, first of all, we just have to get people to volunteer. i just held a rally in minnesota in a suburban area with our candidate, dean phillips, he is now running again, kelly morrison, and i told him, hate him all these volunteers, it is 100 days, you can do anything in 100 days, you have microwaves, you can just do everything. i think there is a sense of urgency you get when you can't

get with a long campaign that you get with a short campaign. the other thing that has to happen is she is going to have to pick a vice president, as you pointed out earlier. and it is kind of a speed dating situation, because of the time limits. on the other hand, there are great names out there and she knows all these people. you know, this is not her first rodeo, she knows who they are, she has had relationships with many of them. so, this is all good as well, and i think there will be a lot of excitement leading up with that, and then you going to the convention and that will be a big moment, of course. where she will be addressing the nation. but what i have noticed is just a lot of moderate republicans, independents, i think they were just starting to feel -- this group that had been voting for democrats in the past may not agree with every single thing, but want to save our democracy, want to stand up for our freedoms, they have realized, what better person than kamala harris to make the case against

a guy who literally said he was proud to have overturned roe v. wade? we would rather have someone that has conviction instead of someone that has been convicted. that is the kind of thing i am hearing out there. >> that appeal to moderates is something that you had when you ran for president, it is an audience you know how to talk to. you mentioned donald trump and abortion views, republican vice presidential nominee jd vance has previously suggested that he would support prohibiting abortion, even in cases -- i want to play something of an interview that you did in 2021 with spectrum news 1 and get your reaction on the other side. >> should a woman be forced to carry a child to term after she has been the victim of rape? >> my view on this has been pretty clear, and it is not whether a woman should be forced to bring a child to term, is whether a child should be allowed to live even though the circumstances of that child's birth are somehow inconvenient or a problem to

the society? >> even if the circumstances are somehow inconvenient. he described being impregnated by rape or incest as being somehow inconvenient. >> you know, we know where the american people are on this. you have got 70, 80% that believe that a woman and her family and her doctor should make the decision about her healthcare and her decisions and not politicians. that is very clear, whether it is on the parents of kansas or that supreme court race in wisconsin where the governor's race in kentucky. this is just completely out of the mainstream, no matter where you are in america. and that is why you see -- we don't just talk about polls here, we're talking about actual elections in the last few years. and unfortunately, instead of expanding his base with his choice of a vice president, donald trump doubled down. he doubled down on those views,

and that's what you see is expressed in that interview. so, i just think that's why you see it moderate republicans and independents. that issue, plus over 30% of people who voted democratic in the 2022 election said that it was because they wanted to save our democracy. well, when you have donald trump as he did the other night, saying you don't have to vote again, you won't have to vote again if you do this time and i get in, that is just like a clear message to these people who voted against election deniers in states like nevada and in arizona, it is a clear message to them, and in georgia, to say, hey, guess what, game is on, we are not going to vote for this guy, and we are certainly not going to vote for this ticket. and also, one other thing that i know it hasn't been lost on you, but women candidates, right? we have been through a lot, we know the kind of attacks that get lots that is are unique,

the ones that go viral. this harris campaign has just pushed everything back on them and turns it into victories. but you know, the cat lady tape comes out and they are all in to making that popular. i said at the rally, all democrats stand up, labor standup, cat ladies standup. i mean, they turned it around. coconut trees, brat summer, you name it, there's just a certain exuberance online to taking on these attacks and turning them into counterattacks. >> they are not letting any of them land, i have never seen anything like it. may i be able to turn around insults to me the way they have been able to do that, it is pretty amazing. senator, good to see you as always, senator amy klobuchar. that does it for this hour, thanks for being with us. my colleague ari picks up 100 days to the election right after this. >> [ music ] >> [ music ] what straps bold to a rocket and hurtles it into space? boring does. boring makes vacations happen, early retirements possible,
