my question is to madam pritzker. within your experience in this position how would you evaluate the efforts of the ukrainian side, family their fulfillment of the obligations in this mutual effort? and what would you advice to your successor? >> i think the ukrainians are -- have, at the end they have day it's clear. nothing about ukraine without ukraine. so you know, we're in essence, as i said, on the economic side, agreement was where to focus was really an agreement between the u.s. and the ukrainians. it's not our job to just say you have to do what we say. it has to be something that the ukrainians and their government and the people want. and so my assessment is, is that making the kind of progress that we're talking -- i talk about here is doable. and it is executable today. by ukraine. i mean, you know, you won't get your refugees back until the situation has greater safety. but there's -- i think the partnership is working but like any partnership there's issues. and there's things that we're constantly sor

pritzker is a very tough, tough businesswoman and... the relationship with the ukrainian authorities, like a bulldozer, because she sees, the americans have almost a complete picture of how funds are handled in the government, how funds are misused, how well, the budget is done holes, and most importantly, this new attempt to raise taxes against the background of how the further shadows ... for example, the tobacco trade, not to mention the loopholes at the customs, where the fees are simple, all the customs fail, that is why ms. pritzker went so well hard, especially, she remembers in the previous visit, prime minister shmegal told her the beams about the fact that they are introducing a strategic investment council for strategists. the cabinet of ministers, well, it's like that, to scare something, but it's all bubbles, and this imitation of a fraudulent activities, the americans see very clearly and are poking ukrainian officials in the face, poking them, because in essence ms. pritzker stated that even during the war, american companies are ready to enter the ukrainian economy, br

pritzker's visit to ukraine. how would you comment on it and why not all high-ranking officials wanto meet with her? well mrs. plitzker she is a very strict business woman, and in relations with the ukrainian authorities, she acts like a bulldozer, because she sees that the americans have an almost complete picture of how funds are handled in the government, how funds are used inappropriately. how many holes have been made in the budget and the most important thing is that this new attempt to raise taxes for the sake of the way it is going on... further criminalization of, for example, the trade in tobacco products, not to mention the prostitutes at customs, where the fees simply fail all customs, so ms. pritzker took such a hard step, she especially remembers that during the previous visit, prime minister shmegal told her about the fact that they were introducing a strategic council with strategists. the secretaries at the cabinet of ministers, well , it’s like that, to scare something, but it’s all bubbles, and the americans see this imitation of fragile activity very clearly and ,

but, for example, the us special representative for the economic recovery of ukraine, penny pritzker, visited kyiv the other day, believes that to increase revenues in ukraine, it is necessary to focus primarily on customs reform and the fight against gray markets. in her opinion, it is precisely in these areas that ukraine could receive revenues for the state budget, but does not do so. you have income that you are not receiving and that you should be receiving. today let's focus on this first: there is also a huge source of profit in the gray markets of cigarettes, alcohol or electronics that can be sold on the big market, and that's why we encouraged the ukrainian government to focus on this first. olga vasylevska smaglyuk, people's deputy, servant of the people and deputy head of the committee on finance , tax and customs policy, joined our broadcast. i congratulate you, i congratulate the studio, ms. olga, can you listen? to ms. pritzker's advice is to cover up gray schemes, deal with corruption, put things in order at the customs office, and maybe you won't have to raise taxes,

whitmer, governor of kentucky, we have andy bishier, if i can read that right, illinois governor uh pritzker, who in your opinion? given their past record performance uh could be closer to, mean what president biden was uh trying to achieve and the followers you're talking about, which how strong an opponent could these people prove to be uh facing donald trump? well we can just sort of take him by the one, andy basir uh not very well-known but seems to be a uh a popular pick of the deep state, gavin newson, california, very divisive uh, lot of things act. against them gretchen whitmer of uh michigan she uh was you know she was one of the the main uh proponents of the lockdown uh during covid so she is very uh very controversial jb pritzker the governor of the state of illinoy a billionaire guy that people are hoping that he's gonna buy his way into the presidency uh so basically none of these people are anything like and let's include camela harris none of these people. are anything like slam dunk over the very very controversial uh donald donald j. trump. however, here's the reality. we ki

now, while all of them have come out publicly in support a president biden since the debate pritzker for one says he would like to hear directly from the president. the white house is pushing back on concerns about the president's ability to run for a second term. the president is clear eyed. >> and he is staying in the race nearly a week after his debate performance sparked a frenzy within the party. there's a cold. there's a jet lag things happen. the president is on full damage control meeting with key democratic governors at the white house press secretary karine jean pierre says the president also held calls with top democrats on the hill are strong conversations. that's something that the president told me. my team directly moments ago for some the damage is already done. we have to have another choice. tuesday, texas congressman lloyd doggett became the first sitting democratic lawmaker to publicly call for the president to step aside. he warned he's not the only one with doubt after seeing the debate and he's calling on others to speak out. just seemed to me we can't afford t

now, it's not clear if vetting material for richmond or pritzker has been received. i asked pritzker on "morning joe" yesterday whether he had supplied any information. he said not yet anyway. governor andy bashir of kentucky is also actively being considered according to one of the sources. a harris campaign spokesperson simply says the vice president is considering a large pool of qualified candidates. joining us now white house correspondent for politico adam cancren. adam, good to see you this morning. it has been a 180 for the democrats and their presidential campaign. you were with president biden as he was recovering from covid there in rehoboth beach for several days, and now there's this worst of enthusiasm, tell us what you're hearing from democrats about how the first two days of the harris campaign have gone and what they're excited about. >> yeah, john, what a difference three excruciating weeks make for the democratic party. when i was in rehoboth just a few days ago, there was just this kind of funeral atmosphere appall over what joe biden would do, ho

pritzker , claims that, despite the risks of war, western defense companies want to invest in ukraineana bedratenko will continue the topic. in order to win the protracted war, it is necessary to develop the domestic production of weapons, and the ukrainian government hopes here for the help of allies and cooperation with international investors. despite the risks of war, american companies are ready to work in ukraine, - says the us special representative for the reconstruction of ukraine, peni pritzker, and cites the example of the american company norta. at the nato summit, northrop grauman signed the first-ever agreement for a us-ukrainian joint venture in the field of defense to produce medium-range missiles. in ukraine, there is a lot of cooperation, company managers call me and say, okay, maybe i don't want to wait until everything is resolved, or should i look at the ukrainian regions? in this joint venture, northrop grumman will locate its production facilities in ukraine, this is a partnership with the defense industry and joint production will be located in ukraine. to redu

pena pritzker, to show that the government is also ready to take the money that is already in shadows for years, and it is hundreds of millions of dollars. we just quoted mrs. pritzker, she advised ukraine to put customs in order, fight shadow schemes, and then get to taxes, and you think there are many prospects in shadow schemes, right? to fill the hole, well, there is a lot of perspective, but on the other hand, there is a reason why all these schemes have not been broken for years, eh, and whether they can magically solve ukraine's problems already in october, then one must doubt here, hence a certain increase , a certain increase in income is required for a very short-term goal, but one thing must be done... visible, so to speak, tangible, which can be calculated, the fight against the shadow, which will give a signal to businesses that yes, both they and consumers will be more burdened for a certain period , but that this is not a blatant injustice, and this is a feeling. can create the attraction to paying taxes, those who have successfully evaded it so far are actually tax eva

she had the governor of illinoisjb pritzker today, you name the governor of they've already endorsed has got the endorsement of both bill and hillary clinton of the endorsement of speaker emeritus nancy pelosi, not only that, she is shattering fundraising records. as of hours ago, over a 24 hour period, kamala harris's campaign campaign has raised more than and he present jill camping in the history of america within a 24 hour period. as of last night there was an organising call of black women across the country, over 40,000 womenjoined that women across the country, over 40,000 women joined that call and where actively fundraising at the exact same time they were on that call, bringing in over $50 million. this is the debbie reddick nominee —— democrat nominee. no one else can amants the delegates, the ground game, the states that are en bloc where biden had state offices. where are they going to amass the fundraising potential, orall going to amass the fundraising potential, or all the packs that have come out in support of her, political action committee, in addition to the large

joining me now is democratic governor jb pritzker of illinois. he has endorsed kamala harris for president so of course, governor, you had been mentioned as a possible top vp pick. so i really appreciate your time in joining me and i mentioned that enthusiasm, that roar that we heard governor for vice president harris at that event today, we haven't heard it so far on the democratic side, this election until now when the vice president was in that room. trump's top campaign pollster predicted today but harris will get a bump in the polls. but he called it a quote, honeymoon do you think that the bump, if there is one, it appears there will be one, but let's see, we don't have the poles yet. do you worry that it could be a honeymoon? >> the excitement is palpable. i've talked to a hundreds of people over the last couple of days. people are ready to go. i mean, they really wanted to have this opportunity to be excited about the ticket. this is the big opportunity. and remember, young people, people of color, who people had concerned current about w

that aside though, because pritzker doesn't appear to be on the shortlist of shortlist here. but that aside, you say pennsylvania is essential. why? and what would shapiro do for you there? >> he's popular east to west and i think that's absolutely critical. i will say it's it's early and we give way too much credence to who the vice presidential nominee is. i think they can do more harm than good and frankly speaking on the republican side i think their choice has borne out to be a big mistake. the fact that trump has to defend him on a regular basis means that there's a problem. these underwater on polling. >> he's got to extreme values and statements on things like choice and climate change so if trump was the smartest candidate, he would have picked someone to appeal to that middle. >> i just put it in context let's remember, it's early trump won by 30 states. the total of 78,000 votes in 2016 in 2020, president and by biden won in three states by less than 50,000 votes these swing voters, these persuadable voters. i don't think we're going to change their minds till afte

pritzker was somebody who could potentially have stepped in, but he made it clear this morning that he was endorsing her as well. largely clearing the field for her in this process that the dnc is going to outline moving forward. >> if you would, stay with us. back with us also is am na na voz, and april ryan white house correspondent and washington bureau chief and the author of the book "black women will save the world: an anthem." so i just want to get amna your thoughts on we're waiting for the vice president to come out. it should be any minute now, but what tight rope she has to walk in these next hours as she assumes a whole different world and responsibility. >> jose, i think it's fair to say it's a tight rope she's been walking probably her entire life and career. i know we're all familiar with kamala harris getting to cover her as a presidential candidate herself, as vice president. let's remind folks, this is the daughter of jamaican and indian immigrants. this is a woman who was raised by a single mother, who made history in her career in california and then again as the fi

joining me now is democratic governor jb pritzker of illinois. he has endorsed kamala harris for president also, of course, governor, you had been mentioned as a possible top vp pick. so i really appreciate your time in joining me and i mentioned that enthusiasm that roar that we heard governor for vice president harris at that event today, we haven't heard it so far on the democratic side, this election until now when the vice president was in that room. a trump's top campaign pollster predicted today, but harris will get a bump in the polls. but he called it a quote, honeymoon. >> do you think that the bump, if there is one, it appears there will be one, but let's see, we don't have the poles yet. >> do you worry that it could be a honeymoon? >> the excitement is palpable. i've talked to a hundreds of people over the last couple of days people are ready to go. i mean, they really wanted to have this opportunity to be excited about the ticket. this is the big opportunity. and remember, young people, people of color, who people had concern about

mayor i mean, it's really interesting to hear governor pritzker, who obviously is a major surrogate, of president biden's his status hosting the convention. he hasn't even heard from the president. it's thursday good. okay. i want to talk about this very personally because i think we're underestimating what joe biden is having to make sense of it this moment as a human being and as president united states, it to have to think about and i've been there, i had to think about pulling out of the last race i was in because it for my case, it was clear it wasn't going to work you wonder if this is the end of the line politically, the end of your career. let's be blunt and joe biden's case. it also has huge ramifications for where he is in the span of his life, emotionally it attached to her have to make that decision is extremely difficult. so i think there has to be some respect for that. he'd also been a successful president and you hear the 1968 analogy to lyndon johnson. it's absolutely false analogy because lyndon johnson, although a stunningly effective domestic president, made the f

one name being discussed is illinois governor jb pritzker. he joins us now governor pritzker have you been asked by the harris campaign to submit any paperwork to be vetted as vice president while i'm not going to talk about any private conversations that i've had, but as you know, i've been traveling the country advocating, waiting for kamala harris for the democratic ticket and making sure that we're beating donald trump everywhere we can. if asked, would you accept an invitation to be her running mate well, i think you know, i love being governor of illinois, the people of illinois have grace me with that title for the last two elections. >> and i'd be reluctant to make a change, but it'd be hard to resist a call and consideration if the nominee called me to ask to be considered for vice president, how has president biden stepping out of the race? how has that changed the electoral landscape for democrats? do you think? >> well, i think that the palpable excitement, and honestly i've had hundreds of calls in the last three days people are

here we are in the pritzker school of law. how many aestheticians in chicago and illinois are named after the pritzker scores how much name recognition doesn't get to the government when he's running for office? how does the government equalize, how can the government possibly go about equalizing all of these various factors in campaigns? but why do we single out campaign spending for leveling the playing field? >> let me jump in because were moving out into, i i wanted to discuss the current philosophical disagreement, and we've had a taste of that but you're moving a step into kind of a practical agreement. we continues to see what's happened. your opponent sit ins up he felt the potential harm for exaggerated from the beginning and never lived up to. i know you disagree. what's your evidence, evidence of our? >> so in the 2020s election unless present election there was $100 million of corporate spending and that's citizens united style spending, not to be confused with corporate pacs which is a different monster. that's a

jersey, andy beshear, governor of kentucky, governor of maryland wes moore, governor of illinois, jb pritzker, and arizona senator mark kelly. also potentially on the list, gretchen whitmer from the battleground state of michigan who told george just days ago -- >> i think mytichigan is always going to be a state you can't take your eye off. we expect our leaders to be as good if not better and work just as hard if not harder. it's always going to be a close race. >> david: the running mate watch now officially begins even if she doesn't have the nomination secures as of yet. jon karl live with us tonight. we should note former president obama and former house speaker nancy pelosi have yet to endorse if at all here, but they perhaps want this to play out a little more, and kamala harris signaled she wants to win, she wants to earn this nomination. >> reporter: i think that's what you're seeing with both pelosi and obama. the two most prominent elder statesmen in the party saying they want the process to play out. i think everybody expects unless something really unexpected happens, this is ka

you're talking gavin newsom in california, jb pritzker in illinois, jb pritzker in michigan among them. these are people who are -- gretchen whitmer in michigan among them. these are in critical swing states that biden must win if he wants to be president again. they are also representing the flank of people who could emerge if biden were to step aside. now that being said, in the last day or two, a lot of the talk if biden were to go, and let's be clear, he said flat out he is in the two minute, according to governor wes moore and others at that meeting, if he were to step aside, and a lot of that speculation has gone to his number two, kamala harris. for a lot of reasons, but i think two of the key ones are that it is legally under u.s. law, it's easier for the biden war chest, just the dollars, to transfer down to harris since she is already on their committees as well. secondly, there have been polls out recently that has said that harris might perform -- a, she is outperforming biden head-to-head in a hypothetical match with trump's, and b, in one survey, she showed up better agai

pritzker. beshear and pritzker have not publicly endorsed harris. another possible name recently turned independent joe manchin. the west virginia senator is considering reregistering as a democrat so he can seek the bid. manchin left the party in may this morning on abc's this week, he advocated for an open process to replace president biden. so many questions on what will come next to make sense of it all. earlier tonight, i talked with a former legislative strategist and abc seven news insider phil matier. >> most americans weren't happy with the choice between biden and trump, and let's not forget. so the mere idea that there's somebody else in there is going to bring more interest into this race. it's going to revive it. >> abc seven news insider phil matier weighing in on joe biden's decision sunday to drop out of the race for president, specifically talking vice president and bay area native kamala harris, who's already looking like the likely democratic nominee. >> well, kamala harris walks into this race with about $100 million handed to he

now, while all of them have come out publicly in support a president biden since the debate pritzker for one says he would like to hear directly from the president. the white house is pushing back on concerns about the president's ability to run for a second term. the president is clear eyed. >> and he is staying in the race nearly a week after his debate performance sparked a frenzy within the party. there's a cold. there's a jet lag things happen. the president is on full damage control meeting with key democratic governors at the white house press secretary karine jean pierre says the president also held calls with top democrats on the hill are strong conversations. that's something that the president told me. my team directly moments ago for some the damage is already done. we have to have another choice. tuesday, texas congressman lloyd doggett became the first sitting democratic lawmaker to publicly call for the president to step aside. he warns he's not the only one with doubt after seeing the debate and is calling on others to speak out. just seemed to me we can't afford that

pritzker is being vetted as a possible vp pick. the table, and who you think is a leading candidate right now? who would bring the most from an electoral perspective? because that's got to be either at the top were a super significant qualification right now. >> the real answer on what j.b. pritzker brings to the table is that he is a billionaire. he is a billionaire psion of one of the major hotel chain families. but he is extraordinarily popular. he has real appeal over various sectors of his state. brings folks together, well- liked in chicago as well as in springfield. he's an extraordinarily popular guy who could still be in the conversation for vice president and a post-kamala harris area. but he's a billionaire. >> susan, all these possible vp pics -- they bring something different. and in particular, different vote counts from home states. how does kamala harris balance someone getting those swing state votes with someone who can turn out voters nationally, as well as the person that she sees as her best working partner. >>

but the key question where is governor newsom, governor pritzker?now what actually happened in that meeting, not the talking points. i'm kayleigh mcenany in for laura ingraham

pritzker has been laying the foundation for a potential presidential run.alled this is just in case campaign forming over the past several months and whether these governors come out of this meeting willing to defend biden and say that he was energized and they felt like they saw the biden they always believed was there could be a key moment for the white house and for president biden to move forward. but if they come out not saying anything or unwilling to come to the defense of the president very clearly this could just mean more trouble and a continued new cycle on this issue. >> shannon: we're getting this on governor gavin newsom, communications team saying he will be here today to meet with in the and hits the trail to stump and rally support for biden and harris. michigan, pennsylvania, new hampshire, critical states. he is really all in and he was even after the debate in that tough performance the other night. 100% with president biden. people float him as a name for potential replacement and polling out there with him. not even having had the meet

. >> tambiÉn estÁ el gobernador de california, gavin newsom, el de illinois, que es jb pritzker, el dey varios estados donde la contienda presidencial estÁ muy reÑida. >> por su lado, en la campaÑa republicana, en tanto, el candidato a vicepresidente jd vance, aprovechÓ un acto en virginia para criticar tanto al presidente biden como a la vicepresidenta harris. >> era su primer mitin en solitario. acusÓ a harris de mentir sobre el deterioro mental de joe biden. escÚchenlo >> well, remember joe biden as not just a quitter which he is but one of the worst presidents of the united states of america. but my friends. kamala harris is a million times worse and everybody knows it. >> tambiÉn critica la manera en que los demÓcratas estÁn pasando el relevo de campaÑa de biden hacia harris. >> el senador por ohio dijo que las decisiones las estÁn tomando barack obama y nancy pelosi y no los votantes del partido. >> por cierto, en las Últimas horas vimos la primera entrevista del expresidente donald trump junto a Él, junto a su compaÑero de fÓrmula, jd evans. es el tÁndem unidos por primera vez e

pritzker does a terrible job in illinois. he loses by 6. are some of the people like governor shapiro not up there that you would think might be likely if there is was no joe biden. question is, they could still throw their hat in the ring in four years. why would they jump in against donald trump in the next four months because once you are a loser, you are a loser. >> lawrence: brian, also to that point. >> brian: got to beat kamala harris. >> lawrence: best point some of the republicans which they would have stayed out of it. they could have just waited. >> brian: they tried. they are allowed. that's an open party. >> lawrence: that's exactly right. why would joe biden get out looking at that? it's not like the alternatives are going to be better for the party right now. >> steve: at least that's what the white house says. >> at least a dead heat. the latest polling shows trump is up plus 6. but at least there is a fight to be had between joe biden. >> brian: he has got the thousand delegates. it's up to him and they are going to rush. o

now, while all of them have come out publicly in support a president biden since the debate pritzker one says he would like to hear directly from the president. the white house is pushing back on concerns about the president's ability to run for a second term. the president is clear eyed. >> and he is staying in the race nearly a week after his debate performance sparked a frenzy within the party. there's a cold. there's a jet lag things happen. the president is on full damage control meeting with key democratic governors at the white house press secretary karine jean pierre says the president also held calls with top democrats on the hill are strong conversations. that's something that the president told me. my team directly moments ago for some the damage is already done. we have to have another choice. tuesday, texas congressman lloyd doggett became the first sitting democratic lawmaker to publicly call for the president to step aside. he warns he's not the only one with doubt after seeing the debate and is calling on others to speak out. just seemed to me we can't afford that ris

jb pritzker in illinois is an underdog, but i love his overall presentation and his understanding ofich also helps her. and then of course mark kelly in arizona. he provides a beacon of strength in terms of her ticket and issues surrounding the border and issues abroad. if we're looking at the white house under president harris and looking for a beacon of strength, he would be that person, and so they all have different, you know, things they bring to the table. gretchen whitmer, obviously, is also a good option here as well, and so she can't miss. she can't lose with any of these options. >> let me go to nbc's chief white house correspondent peter alexander. what more do we know, peter, about the vice president's search for a running mate? >> chris, we do know that as we speak right now, there might be a critical moment in the course of that deliberation taking place, president biden, kamala harris, the likely new nominee for the democratic party are set to be having lunch together. unclear whether that lunch is already underway. she's scheduled to leave the white house for an event

among the potential -- laura: among the potential names, andy beshear, and pritzker, both of whom areng considered for the job. >> i love being the governor for the state of illinois and i have been out on the campaign trail, fighting hard for democrats to win. i'm going to continue to do that and i'm very interested in making sure that kamala harris becomes the next president of the united states. laura: high-stakes decisions for the harris team to make on a race completely turned on its head. as she launches her expedited campaign, president biden is preparing to address the nation tomorrow evening from the oval office. this will be the first time the president has been seen publicly since he ended his reelection campaign on sunday. amna: you have reported that harris has security enough delegates to secure that nomination for her party so walk us through what could happen next. will she be the nominee before or during the convention? laura: tomorrow, the members who sit on the rules committee are going to meet and they are going to vote on a plan for nominating -- for the nominatin

if it were kamala harris. >> a lot of people in that room, governor wes moore, gavin newsom, jamie pritzker those people are people we often talk about. >> josh shapiro is calling in. >> all in the alternatives conversation. i think the point eugene makes is a really interesting one about women and the presidency. kamala harris being there is important but it also means that democrats now can't overlook her, and the press on her and again, we can get into whether or not it's been fair. some people say she's been unfairly maligned for her time as vice president. police say about the complaints about her not being visible enough or making news would mean she was being a bad vice president if she were stepping in front of the president all the time. she is doing exactly what she needs to do is being a supporter. remember what was strong about kamala harris's otherwise terrible presidential campaign, she was really good at raising money and assuaing donors, and that could be a real help to democrats if they are in a position of having to make this change. >> and of course the democratic leaders

laura: josh shapiro, gavin newsom, and jb pritzker also said they support harris.hough holding back an endorsement, west virginia senator joe manchin confirmed today that he will not challenge the vice president for the nomination. >> you are not interested in running for office, true? >> i am not running for office. laura: on the right, a different story. mike johnson, rebuked by his decision to drop out, he wrote in a statement that it invalidated the votes of more than 14 million americans and joined other republicans in calling for biden to resign from the presidency. former president trump lambasted the move onto social, falsely saying of the democrats, "they stole the race from biden after he won it in the primaries. these people are the real threat to democracy." team trump is already attacking their new opponent including trump's running mate, j.d. vance, at a rally in his hometown today. >> if you want to lead this country, you should feel grateful for it. should feel a sense of gratitude and i never hear that gratitude come through when i listen to kamala

pritzker. beshear and pritzker have not publicly endorsed harris.e name recently turned independent joe manchin. now the west virginia senator, is considering reregistering as a democrat so he can seek the bid. manchin officially left the party in may. yesterday morning on abc's this week, he advocated for an open process to replace president biden. >> there are many questions about what will come next. amanda has more on how abc seven news insider phil matier is reacting to the president dropping out of the race. >> yeah, kumasi abc seven news insider phil matier says most americans were not happy with the choice between joe biden and donald trump. >> matier says the idea that vice president harris is now involved is going to bring more interest into the presidential race. >> kamala harris walks into this race with about $100 million handed to her from joe biden's campaign, because she is on the second part of that ticket when he leaves. it's now they've refiled it as the harris for president committee. so she walks in with more money than anybody

now, while all of them have come out publicly in support a president biden since the debate pritzkerto hear directly from the president. the white house is pushing back on concerns about the president's ability to run for a second term. the president is clear eyed. >> and he is staying in the race nearly a week after his debate performance sparked a frenzy within the party. there's a cold. there's a jet lag things happen. the president is on full damage control meeting with key democratic governors at the white house press secretary karine jean pierre says the president also held calls with top democrats on the hill are strong conversations. that's something that the president told me. my team directly moments ago for some the damage is already done. we have to have another choice. tuesday, texas congressman lloyd doggett became the first sitting democratic lawmaker to publicly call for the president to step aside. he warns he's not the only one with doubt after seeing the debate and is calling on others to speak out. just seemed to me we can't afford that risk and we should be seeki

pritzker joined our colleagues from msnbc on the weekend this morning and this is what he had to say when he was asked whether he would accept the role of vice president if harris decided to choose him. listen here. >> look, i have so much respect for kamala harris and it would be hard not to consider it seriously. i do love being governor of the state of illinois. so much of what we've accomplished here is what is needed for america. so i'm going to go out and advocate for kamala harris. i'm going to advocate for these issues across america, and we've got to win in november because donald trump would be a disaster for american families. >> and as harris prepares to make this pivotal decision, she's really hitting the ground running, trying to make up for lost time with this campaign that she has now inherited, trying to keep the momentum she's built over the last six days going for the next 101, until election day. we know the second gentleman doug emhoff is also helping in this effort, as well. he's campaigning in battleground wisconsin today. the vice president herself heading to

pritzker of illinois.as a really successful governor and politician maybe you can answer this question. this isn't a rhetorical question. why does my former party keep doubling down on hate, on exclusion instead of trying to add people to their coalitions? >> it is disturbing, there is no doubt. i must say as someone who is jewish and has been the subject of anti-semitism and someone who believes in fighting against racism and homophobia, i wash with the republicans do every day and what they say. i think they think there are enough of their minority in america to overcome democrats and win in the election of democrats are not energized. let me tell you kamala harris is energizing people all across the nation. young people, people of color, all of us who are excited about the idea that we can take this fight to donald trump and his mini me j. d. vance. they are out there lying and offending people. the comments about cat ladies, those are things i do every single day. we are doing a job of reaching out to
