♪ take your time, that's what i'm here to do ♪ ♪ i need you to be strong ♪ i'll fight president trump says he'll nominate someone next week to replace ruth bader ginsburg on the supreme court, setting up a political battle in washington. also ahead, protests in london over possible new pandemic restrictions, while here in the united states we're approaching a milestone in terms of deaths. and the deal that could throw tiktok a lifeline in the u.s., just hours before a white house deadline that would ban it. live from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, welcome to you, our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom."

as americans honor the life and legacy of ruth bader ginsburg, president donald trump is pushing to replace the late supreme court justice in his words without delay and with just 44 days before the presidential election, the race to fill the high court vacancy is turning into the next big political battle. ginsburg's granddaughter tells npr the late justice didn't want to be replaced until a new president is in office. if mr. trump knew about that dying wish, he paid it little heed saturday in north carolina, but he did pledge to keep the number of female justices in tact. >> i will be putting forth a nominee next week. it will be a woman.

it will be a woman. >> makeshift memorials such as this one are paying tribute to ginsburg. the supreme court said a private internment is set for arlington national cemetery, but it is not clear when. well, the republicans push to quickly replace ginsburg on the court is also reshaping the november election. cnn's manu raju explains what's at stake. >> this decision ought to be made by the next president. >> reporter: that was senate majority leader mitch mcconnell then, when barack obama was president in 2016, with a vacancy on the supreme court. but times have changed, and so has the president. >> we would fill it. >> reporter: republican leads are are plotting a full throated effort to fill justice ruth bader ginsburg's seat with the election just 45 days away. trying to make the argument it is different now because republicans control both the

white house and the senate. privately mcconnell and trump speaking about potential nominees on friday night, and the gop leader in a message to his colleagues urging them to keep your powder dry and not take up a position on whether the winner of the november election should be the one filling the vacancy left by the death of ginsburg. on saturday, senator susan collins of maine, facing the toughest re-election of her career breaking ranks saying the decision of the lifetime decision to the supreme court should be made the president who is elected on november 3rd. but with majority, democrats need a total of four republicans to vote no and stop the nomination. gop senator lisa murkowski, before ginsburg's death, made clear she did not want to move ahead on any vacancy before november. and it is unclear if two other republicans will agree. privately, top republicans are arguing that a supreme court fight would only boost their chances of holding the senate majority in november, and

several republicans in difficult races are indicating they'll vote to confirm trump's nominee this year. even though some in dangered republicans like north carolina senator thom tillis took the opposite position in 2016. >> we're going to let the american people speak. >> reporter: moving ahead before november, could squeeze republicans like cory gardener, running for re-election in democratic-leading colorado. gardener's office did not respond to questions about whether the winner of the november elections should make the hugely consequential pick. it typically takes between two and three months to confirm a supreme court nominee, it would be much faster than normal to approve a replacement by november. if a vote slips until after the november elections during the lame duck session of congress, there is another complication, if arizona's appointed senator martha mcsally loses in november. that would mean the democrat mark kelly could be sworn in by the end of that month, bringing the gop majority down to 52-48. so mcconnell has little margin for error. and several senators are

uncommitted, like utah's mitt romney, and some senators in past have been wary about an election year confirmation. like senator chuck grassley, who as chairman of the judiciary committee refused to hold hearings for obama's nominee in 2016. he told cnn in july -- >> i couldn't move forward with it. >> reporter: on saturday, his office declined to say if that's still his position. others have clearly shifted theirs, including lindsey graham, who now chairs the judiciary committee and said this in 2016. >> let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination and you can use my words gen s against me. >> reporter: he explains himself this way, he says things have changed since 2018 in the aftermath of the vicious supreme court fight that got brett kavanaugh confirmed to the court. he says he views all this differently now, but if the republicans do move ahead, senate democrats have their own plans, they're talking about that right now, they had a

conference call on saturday afternoon and with chuck schumer told his caucus that all options are on the table, if the republicans do advance a nomination this fall, and one of those options that democrats are discussing, potentially expanding the supreme court, maybe going from nine justices to 11 justices or even more than that, they would need legislation to do that, and to pass such legislation, they would have to change the senate filibuster rules and to do that, of course, they need to win the senate majority first in the fall, so-, so much is on the line, this fall's election, democrats are indicating they're not going to take this fight lying down. manu raju, cnn, capitol hill. well, as manu mentioned, some democrats suggest if a trump nominee is confirmed, they would be open to expanding the supreme court and adding new seats. and one of the leading democrats in the senate told cnn that filling ginsburg's seat is about more than politics. >> this is just not a political squabble among the big shots in

washington. what is at stake here is the future of the supreme court on issues like health insurance, covering pre-existing conditions. one of the first cases the supreme court will take up, basic choice questions, women's rights moving forward in the wake of losing one of the leaders in our history, in terms of forcing the debate in america on women's rights. it goes way beyond differences between politicians. i can tell you we have both a number of senator on both sides of the aisle up for re-election. they're going to hear it at home. this is going to change the conversation in many of these senatorial contests. and some of them may have second thoughts about reversing and changing the very position that they were arguing for four years ago. >> but some republicans say circumstances aren't the same as they were four years ago when they said a new justice shouldn't be picked until after the election. cnn political commentator scott jennings defended the change of heart to our chris cuomo.

>> he did have different parties in power, so the voters in 2016 leading up to that vacancy had delivered mixed messages. democrats in charge of one institution and republicans in charge of the other. in this case, republicans, the voters awarded them control of both and reaffirmed that control in the senate, in 2018. lock, the constitution does not give the president the power to nomination this and the senate to just simply rubber stamp it. you have two co-equal separate branches of government that have a role to play. you're right about one thing, it is about power, and the republicans do have power in the senate and they have a constitutional duty to exercise that power however they see fit and that's what they're going to do here. >> joining me is deborah rody, professor of law and director of the center on the legal profession at stanford university. thank you so much for joining us today. before we look ahead to some of the pressing legal and constitutional issues that have been created with ruth bader ginsburg's death, i want to start with your thoughts on her

passing. you knew her, how are you remembering her today? >> well, it is a cliche, of course, to note that for someone of her small stature she was a towering intellect. but more than that, she was an incredibly insightful strategist and someone who really reshaped the landscape of american law with respect to gender. prior to coming on to the court, she headed the women's rights project, which brought hundreds of cases alleging gender discrimination. she successfully argued five of them, which chartered the path for the supreme court for the first time to declare that gender discrimination was a violation of the constitution. and that really reshaped the landscape of law for both sexes and for the better. she exposed how archaic

stereotypes restricted men and women. knowing an all male court could find that a sympathetic strategy. >> so, as you say, you know, clearly she was a champion for women, donald trump said he will nominate a woman. what are your thoughts on how adding potentially another female nominee might affect the court? obviously a woman who would clearly have very different views than the late justice. >> well, putting a woman in a position of power does not necessarily empower all women. i clerked for justice thurgood marshall and he would have been horrified to see who his replacement was in the so-called african-american seat on the court. his life was dedicated to the struggle for racial justice, and clarence thomas who was

appointed in his place has mainly issued opinions that stand in the way of achieving that. and so to put a conservative woman in ruth bader ginsburg's place on the court, who will vote against everything that she stood for in term of gender equity, reproductive justice, the rights of underrepresented minorities, that's not an advance for women. and hopefully female voters will see through it. >> well, presumably if the republicans can push through a nominee by hook or by crook, the process would be extremely contentious. we have seen some devicive nominations in the past. what effect might this have on the supreme court, both in terms of the inner workings of the court itself, and also for the public, the court's image and perception of, you know, of its legitimacy. >> well, i think it will be very

damaging for the court. there have been a whole series of cases that have called into question the justices' political independence. and even now only a bear majority of americans approve of the way the supreme court is handling its business. and to have one more example of a highly partisan contentious nomination and confirmation battle and then have someone on the court who works against the legacy that ginsburg fought so hard to achieve, i think just reinforces the public cynicism that this is a partisan court and then people vote their personal ideology rather than the rule of law. >> thank you so much for your analysis, deborah rhode, we appreciate it. >> thank you so much for having me. when we come back, the u.s. nears yet another sad milestone.

the u.s. is fast approaching the 200,000 mark when it comes to the lives lost to covid-19. several states are seeing a rise in cases, suggesting a post labor day spike. johns hopkins is now reporting more than 6.7 million total cases. medical expertes say they're worried about flu season and how coronavirus could make it even more dangerous. u.s. president donald trump says all americans will have access to a vaccine as early as april, but there is growing skepticism from the public about the safety of a vaccine. a professor of epidemiology at the ucla fielding school of public health talks to cnn about the surrounding concerns. >> this is a huge problem. we are losing faith in all of our institutions that dictate public health here. we have lost a lot of confidence

in the fda with the politization. now cdc has also fallen prey to politics. and so it is not surprising that people who previously were not vaccine hesitant or worried about vaccines are feeling worried. the polls are showing this very, very clearly. you know, taking vaccines normally under normal circumstances we do have to do a lot of work at getting public confidence and had to do more and more over the years. but with all of the -- all of the politization and the mixed messaging, we're going to have a very difficult time here, even if a vaccine is very effective, if less than half the population actually take it, we're in the going to reach any kind of immunity, and we're still going to run into problems. i should also mention a vaccine is not a silver bullet. with the vaccine hesitancy, with the vaccine likely not going to be 100% effective, we're going to not see major protection here.

getting people to trust a vaccine is going to be -- going to need a lot of transparent -- we're going to need transparency from the dwogovernment. we're going to have to see all of the scientific experts seeing the data in the government, people like dr. fauci, but scientists outside of the government, there are many people, many of us who have been on television, who have been very vocal in the news that have been serving as watchdogs for science here. i think making these data available to the scientific community and having the scientific community being able to come out and say, yes, we have looked at these data, we agree that this is going to be aee fe effective is going to be very important and have important figures taking the vaccine. we have seen this with polio vaccine, getting people well known taking the vaccine, the ebola vaccine, many vaccines. we have seen using public figures to be able to really show people that this vaccine is worth taking is going to be very

important. >> that was ucla professor anne rimoin. in london, anti-lockdown and anti-vaccination protests turned violent saturday. police arrested 32 people in trafalgar square. officers say there were outbreaks of violence and emergency workers were assaulted. officials in the uk have been raising the possibility of adding new restrictions in recent days, now that covid-19 cases are on the rise. so let's get now more from london with cyril vanier. more cases, more restrictions and it seems more backlash. >> yeah, absolutely. and there are probably going to be even more cases and even more restrictions as early as this week. look, 4,000 -- upwards of 4,000 cases were announced yesterday. that's new daily infection and that is more than -- that's about four times what they had at the beginning of the month. so the government is seeing that things are not only trending in

the wrong direction, they're trending in the wrong direction fast and they acted late at the beginning of the pan tedemic. they don't want to do that a second time. they want to get it on the ground early and that's where boris johnson today is weighing new restrictions. we have seen tougher restrictions in many parts of the uk, where people from different households are not allowed to mingle. where pubs, bars, restaurants are closed as of 10:00 p.m. so those are things that the capital city here london might also impose, but the government is thinking of going even further because they are -- they see that a second wave is coming in, the words of boris johnson there, the prime minister, and they want to avoid a second wave that would overwhelm the ability of their health system to treat the sick and the infected. so we might be seeing the next fu days, kim, a new set of restrictions. >> right. we saw from those protests there, there are so much anger

now, imagine if there is a second full lockdown. we know boris johnson says, you know that would be a disaster, the government's contemplating a short-term national lockdown if things keep getting worse. >> yeah, they're calling it a circuit breaker and speculation about that in the british press this morning. it is believed the prime minister is considering a two-week quasi lockdown to just essentially bring down, reduce the number of infections, they were hoping to be able to wait for several weeks before they did it. it is believed that with the data worsening they're now considering bringing up the date of a circuit breaker. hasn't been announced yet, hasn't been decided. just speculation on this at this stage. what the government has done over the weekend is that they have announced a toughening of penalties for people who fail to respect the current rules. so, for instance, until now, it was just a guideline that if you tested positive you had to self-isolate.

now it has become law. and you can be fined if you do not respect the restriction. and the guidance on self-isolation. for instance, you can be fined a thousand pounds, and if egregious breeches and multiple breeches of this rule, you can be fined up to 10,000 pounds. the government there trying to scare people into respecting and following existing rules. also trying to incentivize them, mind you. some people will not be able to -- might not have the means to withstand another self- -- round of self-isolation. those people would be granted a 500 pound allotment of money to enable them, essentially to respect the government guidelines. >> the old carrot and stick approach. all right, thank you so much, cyril vanier in london. appreciate it. well, at the start of the covid-19 pandemic, most countries were pretty much doing the same thing, reacting slowly, but by that point many had been infected. but not in taiwan.

it is a model for handling coronavirus and it has been praised and studied around the world. cnn's paula hancocks shows us from taipei, the reward has been a return to a mostly normal life. >> reporter: staying out of the midday sun seems more important than keeping six feet apart for the taipei residents. the streets are busy, restaurants have lunch time queues, life during the pandemic seems fairly normal. the one thing that strikes me here, even though there are a lot of people wearing masks in the street, there are still a significant number who aren't. i'm being told a few months ago when there was local transmission cases here, that people wore masks without exception, without complaint, but now there is more of a confidence in the way that the government has handled this pandemic and they don't feel the need anymore. just one suspected case of local transmission since mid-april, the rest are imported. ahead of a population of 23 million, there have been around 500 confirmed cases and just

seven deaths. the foreign minister tells me they learned harsh lessons from another break. >> taiwan was hit hard and we started building up capacity and dealing with pan demic like thi. when we heard there was some secret pneumonia cases in china, we knew it was something similar. >> reporter: the only recognition of the crisis and suspicions that bey ji s thas t being transparent spurred the government to act fast, setting up a command center. passengers were screened from the start of the year, weeks before other countries started to react. early travel restrictions, a 14-day quarantine for arrivals, contact tracing and testing. mask rationing prevented panic buying and taiwan increased production to the point it was able to donate 12 million masks to the united states, lifting the world standing. this college student says the country learned social

solidarity. >> very few people here will refuse to wear a mask. >> reporter: she now runs a practice in new york, she spent five weeks recovering in her apartment. >> at the time i couldn't even get a test because the -- i remember i think the criteria was for you to have shortness of breath or difficulty breathing or some life threatening situation. >> reporter: she came back to taiwan in july to visit her sick grandmother and was shocked by the difference in realities. >> life here is so surreal. it is basically like normal, every so often you have to remember to wear a mask and you have your temperature taken. but that's about it. >> reporter: a snapshot of normality in a world of uncertainty. paula hancocks, cnn, taipei, taiwan. well, it was already a tense election year. and the death of a supreme court justice is adding fuel to the fire. so what the loss of ruth bader ginsburg means for the u.s. presidency and other top races. we'll have that ahead.

and welcome back. to you our viewers in the united states, canada and around the world, i'm kim brunhuber. you're watching "cnn newsroom." for a recap of our top story, u.s. president donald trump says he will nominate a woman it replace late supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg. and the president told supporters in north carolina his pick will be named next week,

setting up a fight with democrats ahead of november's election. cnn's ryan nobles has more. >> reporter: president trump making it clear to his supporters in fayetteville, north carolina, on saturday night he's not going to waste any time in picking a replacement for ruth bader ginsburg on the supreme court. trump did have a lot of kind things to say about the former supreme court justice, calling her an inspiration, but he quickly pivoted to his plans to picking her replacement. the crowd responded telling trump to fill the seat and do it as soon as possible. and trump saying for the first time on saturday night that he plans to pick a woman. take a listen. >> fill the seat. fill the seat. >> so we will uphold equal justice under the law for citizens of every race, color, religion and creed. i will be putting forth a nominee next week. it will be a woman. >> reporter: trump also revealing his timing for making that announcement, saying it should happen sometime next week.

and sources telling cnn that the president plans to wait until ginsburg is officially laid to rest before making the official announcement. now, in the jewish tradition that could happen quickly, meaning the president could make the announcement sometime midweek or toward the end of the week. the goal, though, for republicans is to get this process moving as soon as possible. even with the hope of getting confirmation before election day. now that would be difficult, normally it takes several months to nominate and confirm a supreme court justice. the president and the republicans seizing an opportunity here and hoping to have it done quickly. ryan nobles, cnn, fayetteville, north carolina. and a new poll reveals how many americans feel on the subject. it was taken just days before justice ginsburg died. two third of the respondents said if there were a vacancy on the supreme court this year, a hearing and vote should be held on president trump's nominee. that was fairly even across party lines. now, the death of supreme court

justice ruth bader ginsburg and the prospect of president donald trump replacing her on the court has led to tens of millions in donations to democratic causes. the party's primary fund-raising platform act blue says that it processed more than $30 million in donations in the 12 hours following news of ginsburg's death. most of that was raised in the immediate aftermath. the fund-raising group saw its biggest three hours in its 16-year history friday night after ginsburg's death. so already as you can see, justice ginsburg's death is having a direct impact on the 2020 presidential election, but how might it affect how americans actually vote? well, for that, let's turn to natasha lindhstat in england, professor of government at the university of essex. professor, thank you for being here with us. i'll start with the obvious, the questions everyone has been asking in various ways over the last 24 hours or so, conventional wisdom says the conservatives are traditionally

far more interested in the supreme court. but as i just mentioned, democrats just said a one-day fund-raising record. which party's voters will be most energized here over this issue? >> well, i think it heightens emotions on both sides. but for every american the supreme court really does affect our lives. they rule on issues that affect our daily lives. whether it be on immigration rights, gay rights, or women's reproductive rights or the affordable care act. but we are seeing with the democrats there is a greater sense of urgency here. and that's why we saw some anecdotal evidence from early voting that a lot of democrats are being ushered into vote early because they sense that this election is more important than ever, that there is a lot on the line. now, if we look at the swing states and we look at the key issues that when we think about the supreme court, in the u.s., which is about women's reproductive rights, there is a

majority of americans on every single swing state that is more in favor of being pro-choice than being pro-life. now, in terms of some of these red states, republican-led states, there is a very, very strong majority that are pro-life. so we see that with a lot of the issues that the supreme court rules on, they're very polarizing issues that are really, really important. i think it is going to motivate people on both sides but probably the democrats more so than normal. >> well, we'll have to see about that. i wonder about the independents, the swing voters, you know, do you think that if republican politicians are seen as sort of flip-flopping on this issue of nominating someone so close to an election, will the idea of fairness, of hypocrisy persuade any undecided voters or are they just used to that, basically? >> i think it is too hard to tell what they're going to do. we have been having trouble

gathering what they're actually going to do in this election. this is something that the democrats could seize upon. they could use the republicans' own words, in particular mitch mcconnell, and lindsey graham who heads the committee, to confirm the next justice. because lindsey graham had said very clearly that we should not nominate a supreme court justice in an election year. and the democrats can remind voters that antonin scalia died in february of 2016, a full ten months before the election, and the republicans refused to do any of the hearings. they wouldn't budge on this issue. so this is something that democrats can remind voters that republicans are really lacking integrity on key issues that might matter for the 2020 election. >> and not just the white house, but the other races as well, the ongoing senate race in arizona, already we're seeing an influence there, possibly several, you know, republican senators who are in swing states who are up for re-election and, you know, they may be judged on

the question of whether they'll allow a nomination to go forward. >> yeah, that's true. but we see this may only affect a handful of senators. there are 53 republican senators right now. and this may affect lisa murkowski of alaska and susan collins of maine. those are the two we're really watching. that's not enough for the democrats. they're going to need to really clip more senators, more republican senators than just two. and it is really not clear whether or not these republicans are willing to go against trump. so far we have seen they have been incredibly loyal to trump and we have seen mitch mcconnell has great control over the republicans in the senate. we saw this with the kavanaugh vote. where not one ruled against kavanaugh, lisa murkowski voted present. i think we're most likely going to see the republicans toe the party line on this issue, because it has become the party of trump. >> speaking of trump, will his pick, you know, potentially affect the vote, perhaps help

shore up his flagging support with women or potentially, you know, with latinos depending on who he picks? >> right, that's a good question. i think that this vote is something that is going to get him more support from conservative female voters and possibly from hispanic voters who tend to be conservative on issues like abortion rights. but i don't think it is going to move things in a huge way, in terms of the republicans that are already going to vote for trump, they decided this long ago. i don't think this pick is going to have a huge impact on us. what i'm looking to see is how the democrats hand this will process and if they're able to convey to the voters some of the hypocrisies that the republicans, you know, just some of the things they said in 2016 are not in line with what they're doing right now in 2020. but i think that regardless of what happens, this is go to be a very emotional election and this particular pick is going to be incredibly emotional as well.

>> absolutely as if this heated election needed any more higher stakes, thank you so much for speaking with us, professor natasha lindhstat of the university of essex. appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. well, tiktok is safe for now in the u.s. we'll take a look at the deal for a new partnership and how it is going to work next. please do stay with us. ♪ gillette proglide and proglide gel. five blades and a pivoting flexball designed to get virtually every hair on the first stroke, while washing away dirt and oil. so you're ready for the day with a clean shave and a clean face. ♪ ♪

u.s. president dnonald trum says he's approved a partial sale between bite dance and oracle and walmart. it means the social media company will temporarily avoid being banned from u.s. app stores. it will delay restrictions that were set to take effect today. bite dance will continue to be the majority owner of tiktok going forward. and oracle and walmart will own up to a 20% share and, of

course, that contradicts the president's claims about that deal. >> we have a deal worked out, i think, with walmart is going to buy it, along with oracle. larry ellison. it is going to be an incredible combination. >> all right, so let's get more on this deal. will ripley joins me from hong kong. will, you know, finally this long story seems to be coming to an end, at least an end is in sight. what is the latest? >> well, there is a week for this deal to come together, kim, before that ban on tiktok in the u.s. app stores would take effect. so it only has been postponed at this stage. president trump speaking about the deal praising the deal, even though apparently he's still a bit fuzzy on the details. he had initially, for example, wanted tiktok's parent company bite dance to make a payment directly to the u.s. treasury before finding out that was illegal. then president trump mentioned there was some $5 billion education fund that would be set

up, tiktok responded in a social media post, that was the first they heard that. they said they're committed to investing in education. what we do know is this is coming together quickly between tiktok's chinese owner bite dance and two major american companies. you have oracle, the tech company and walmart, president trump praising both of those companies, tiktok assuring the united states that this restructuring, if you will, will expand its headquarters in the u.s. they say 25,000 jobs will come as a result of this. and the information about u.s. users will stay in the united states. it will not in any way enter the hands of the chinese owners or the chinese government which has been the united states main concern, of course, with all of its, i guess, kind of ongoing disputes with chinese tech companies. whether it be huawei, which manufactures cell phones to now this extremely popular social

media app that millions of americans are using on a regular basis, many teenagers, 800 million active users. even just to have an extra week that people are guaranteed to get download tiktok is a sigh of relief for many people, especially those using it to vent off some steam during this difficult times of this pandemic. >> right, absolutely. but, you know, as i mentioned, bytedance will be a majority owner of tiktok. does that mean the data privacy and security issues that prompted all of this, they're no longer a concern? >> i think the devil is in the details. apparently this is enough for the united states government to have these major american stake holders now involved. even though as you said bytedance maintains majority ownership, tiktok has a different version of the app in china than what is available in the united states. these tech companies and particularly social media companies do have, and this has been something we have been
