mary katharine, what where saul the joy. last night back to the dark brandon moments.hat is going on. >> i'm actually surprised. i know they are doing fan service for the room. it should partly be for swing voters out there watching. i'm not sure it is. the only smart thing they do the kamala harris campaign has done in this has to shift off democracy is in trouble. the republicans are going to go down in flames messaging because it wasn't working for voters. >> laura: plouffe said we're going to do it all week. >> i don't think it's a good idea. campaign about nothing gets asked no questions is better than the one about democracy dying. >> laura: kayleigh, this is an odd moment because biden tried. this it wasn't successful, and is he actually a better speaker than she is. >> this is how they feel though, i think the best representation of where the democratic party's mind is at, was actually a few blocks away yesterday at the anti-israel protest. i got the feeling. i went there, i spoke with many of the young adults out there my age protesting. i realized something t

[laughter] stuart: i don't think it's going to work during the debate either, but there you are. >> that's when she's finally going to face some tough questions. stuart: will ve get tough questions from a abcsome is. >> look, they're going to be tougher than she's gotten so far, and she does not handle any question so far, even just how are you going to the pay for this. she

we are asking fox news contributor and columnist mary katharine ham.clamoring for what is in their interest to have unscripted moments from kamala harris. >> i'm not sure. and also sort of hard to hear the question last night but it sounded a little bit like madam vice president, what do you think? right? that was the tough one she got. in the first access that they really had an opportunity to shout something at her. i think this is a total dereliction of duty by the press. we are not sure in this moment where the middle east is on the verge of a large. where khalid sheikh mohammed is getting plea deals a lot of things are going on right now. i'm not really sure who is doing the job. president biden answered some questions last night. he stood slack jawed next to her while she answered the quunel one she was given. we can all say that this feels sort of like a power sharing agreement of some kind about which the media has no curiosity at all, there is not one think piece about how we should be concerned about this. and, look, if she wants to be the pr

mary katharine ham reacts to that.ing out a real problem for harris. >> she's got work to do, clawing back some of these young black men. they can't all be government programs. stuart: trump gaining support among black voters. that is not good for harris. giano coldwell will weigh in on that . listen to what kamala's secretary said about those big downward revision in jobs. >> i don't believe it, because i've never heard donald trump say anything truthful. >> it is though from the bureau of labor. >> i'm not familiar with that. stuart: really? you never heard about the jobs thing? oh, dear. wisconsin senator ron johnson takes it on. the senator is next. ♪ ♪ business. it's not a nine-to-five proposition. it's all day and into the night. it's all the things that keep this world turning. it's the go-tos that keep us going. the places we cheer. trust. hang out. and check in. they all choose the advanced network solutions and round the clock partnership from comcast business. powering more businesses than anyone. powering p

one political point i will make, and i saw our colleague mary katharine -- not long ago this person wasen and families in terms of their policies and democrats took great umbrage. but come on down to our convention where we will give you free vasectomies and abortions. they are making his case a little bit here. >> planned parenthood said it will be a few steps away from the convention. we will see what happens. we will see what comes up with anybody's speech is on the big stage here or whatever. it's out on their platform but nobody is condemning it. nobody is saying anything. it is that silence that leads to complicity. the liberal media went to my home state, cobalt blue new jersey to talk to voters about the presidential candidates. i'm certain the word "taxes" came up. they may not get the answers they expected. >> four years ago was a lot better. i made more money than i do now >> i know you feel that way but that's not what the record shows. the economy is better under biden.

i would just add a couple of things i thought mary katharine ham was very smart.istened to her soundbite that was meandering. read it out loud first time in a script long time hostages land forced to look into the camera and a talk and she was all over the place. that's another skill a candidate has to have. j.d. vance adversarial situation came out strong. she has to ad-lib the hostage release all over the place. >> kayleigh: i will say so the job of the trump campaign right now is it force her off script. get her to the debate stage as soon as possible. in the meantime, don't under estimate her the way the bar was so low for biden. don't mention the cackling and laughing. say she is going to be tough we don't know if we can do it. have trump dance across the debate stage and trounce opponents. don't set the bar too low. >> steve: you just got to keep dragging her back to the issues. because, when you look at the issues. >> kayleigh: exactly. >> steve: hey, we think we should file a missing person's report because you now say you are for this but a year ago you w

speaking of the quickness, to harold's point, mary katharine, democrats have this platform that they> katie: right, belies the problem that democrats have here. although there will be happiness in the arena because they are publish pushing him off the stage and happy to be doing that we have gone from a cog any it tiff decline to cognitive dissidence. platform is reflective of that reason it says president biden's second term because in actuality that's what this would look like and something that kamala harris does not want to be as associated with as she is even though she voted the tiebreaking vote for some of these signature pieces of legislation that voters are not happy with and did not improve things. have you got this cognitive dissidence be part of this convention no matter what. voters are trying to figure out where you are and whether these things are separate. >> bret: what is interesting, katie, go after independents and moderates. yet, the strength, the power of the progressive side of this party. and they are flexing. marry marry yeah, look. they have to speak outside

stuart: mary katharine ham joining us this morning, you agree with that?recedent has been set? >> well, the fact is that the it can be extremely good news that a we have americans back home and also that there might be bad incentives for the future. those things can be true at the same time, and you can talk about them. and i think it's worth pointing out, and i believe president biden's getting a lot of credit for saying that, you know, trump should have done this while he was in office because he was asked, you know, trump says he could do it without trading anything. what do you say to to that? why didn't he do it in office? well, with the hope of robert o'brien, he actually did bring many americans home without trading anyone or paying money, so he had done it in the past. two or three of these americans were not taken during the trump administration. so he couldn't have helpinged them. paul whelan is the exception who was taken in 2018. and i think it's fair for these two presidents to, well, kamala harris actually should answer for her administration
