he went. the president tourg destruction and making remarks and stopping to visit with one of the reporters. one of the reporters asked the president whether he believed whether systemic racism is a problem in this country. here is what the president said in response to that question >> you know, you just keep getting back to the opposite subject. we should talk about the kind of violence we've seen in portland and here and other places. it is tremendous violence. you always get to the other side, what do you think about this or that >> that's the president clearly doesn't want to talk about systemic racism and give a basis to some of the reason for the anger. this president wants to focus on the idea of law and order. he hammered that out and said he's on the side of the police and raised conspiracy theories
5:31 am
about where some of the protesters are coming from he feels this is an issue that is a winner for him. if voters in swing states like wisconsin start to feel physically safe, he feels the law and order message will drive home the vote for him in november this is something we've seen the white house pivot toward moving away from the less comfortable topic, which is the coronavirus. >> this is strategic for the administration, eamon. let's talk about another prong of that strategy that may be working and may not be we hear the treasury secretary and house speaker have resumed possible talks over a stimulus deal that's a big deal right now. what is the latest there >> secretary mnuchin was asked whether he would call nancy

5:33 am
rated the idea that he sees this as a super-v recovery with a sharp bounce down and sharp back up mnuchin saying there is more work that needs to be done >> thank you the summer driving season in the u.s. coming to an end but you may not notice much of the difference in the amount of traffic on the road. the amount of gasoline surged from mid-april to late june. consumption has been flat and well below prepandemic levels as many continue to work from home and schools open with a mix of structure. showing how the next phase of recovery could take a lot longer for more insights now, we are joined by chief oil analysts always great to have you here. let's talk about whether that fuel demand has a shot of
5:34 am
getting back to normal in the coming months. >> right now, it is very unlikely we'll get back to anything quote/unquote normal this year. vaccine or some sort of medicine that allows people to be more comfortable getting out and back to work would be critical. recruiting to work, that is down sharply over 10% year on year. showing that over 40% comes from u.s. commuting where it is a long recovery ahead. i would argue that maybe u.s.
5:35 am
gasoline demand has peaked we will not go back to prelevels. we'll encourage some form of working not saying everybody will be home all the time but struggling with efficiency all the time >> 2020 will be remembered for a variety of reasons one of those is the historic move in oil prices towards negative prices earlier this year we are a far cry from there. well above negative prices it has been a demand seen coming as driving the higher price. what is it then about the higher price today that may tell you we could see a leveling off of that demand expectation >> i think the reason why we haven't really moved higher in all these prices
5:36 am
we've been side ways for a good month and a half around $40 that really tells you we had that recovery but since then it is stalling. we are definitely far, far away from the lows. we don't expect to go back to those just yet didn't mean to pick up another leg here if we go higher. >> we learned over the past week that oil production in america continues to recover but still below the levels we saw in april but we are producing more. other countries are producing more is there a supply issue that
5:37 am
will produce demand for a country even if there is one there? >> right now, yes, as you say, there is a bit of recovery if anything, the response was steeper. producing panic response opec had that historic deal. over the past few months, supply has been drawing down. we are seeing month on month recovery in supplies, they still remay low. that is not a concern. we'll probably take a year to run down these industries. what you need is demand to pick up a lot quicker than supplies are picking up right now, supplies are marginally lower >> the health of u.s. shale industry, is it going to get better or worse? what do you think? >> i think it will be very, very
5:38 am
challenging. in this environment where all prices are $40 esg and all talking about the environment and away from fraking. the amount required to keep shale going is the basis they will be the big companies that survive and do get better we expect shale and demand probably not the highs again it will grow at a much slower pace and not the levels we have seen in the past years >> thank you coming up, the biden/harris duo has made a whole new level how the race has made its way to the video game level general motors geo mary barra is meeting to tour the
