with you, i love cheeseburgers from time to time. right? i mean, i i just do so those cute cows at trump's loves to talk about so much will likely be safe. >> we're going to rise of who wins and just 18 days thank you for watching and one note before we go, you can catch a brand new episode of how i got news for you with host roy wood jr. and team captains, amber ruffin and michael ian black tomorrow at 9:00 p.m. eastern. guests this week include comedian alex edelman and what will commentator sam seder, anderson cooper 360 is next with more days left, the vice president, former president, make michigan. >> their focus is she talks about trump's alleged exhaustion >> it's abraham lincoln should have cut a deal to end the civil war. also tying foreign prison obama campaigns in arizona, one of 22020 blue

states for the harris campaign is fighting an up hill. and later at the impact of elon musk's millions and his conspiracy theory falsehoods and supported the man he wants dismissed good evening. thanks for joining us. take a look on the left. vice provides president harris expected to to speak any moment now in all important oakland county, michigan, which encompasses much of detroit, northern suburbs on the right, the former president in detroit he was in oakland county as well earlier today, the second of two michigan appearances for him and the third for her in grand rapids this afternoon, nbc's peter alexander put her on the spot with a question, she's been criticized lately for not fully answering this time president biden said this week that every president has to cut their own path. >> what is one policy that you would have done differently over these last three-and-a-half years than president biden i mean, to be very candid with you even including mike pence vice presidents are not critical thing president, i think that really actually, in terms of the tradition of it and also

just going forward, it does not make for a productive and important relationship. but she went on to lay, out how she would differ on policy if elected, pointing to or plants for medicare, affordable housing and small businesses. earlier today, she sees on reporting in politico that her opponent turned down a recent interview with the shade room because reportedly of exhaustion reading now from the politico piece, quote, a trump advisor told shade room producers that trump was quote exhausted and refusing some interviews, but that could change and quote, at any time according to two people familiar with the conversations when asked about it by politico, the trump campaign called the story quote, unequivocally false as for the vice president who has talked to the shade room. here's what she said today in grand rapids, michigan i've been hearing reports saying he's suffering from exhaustion and that's apparently the excuse for why he's not doing interviews. and of course he's not doing the cnn town hall. he refuses to do another debate. and, you know, look, being president united

states, probably one of the hardest jobs in the world. and so we really do need to ask if he's exhausted being on the campaign trail. is he fit to do good job? >> believe today he had a reply one event did i can't i haven't she does he go to any events? >> she's a loser. she doesn't go to any events. she didn't even show up for the catholic last night at the hotel so did they all they are soundbites. i've gotten 48 days now without arrest and i've got that loser who doesn't have the energy of a rapid told me when you've seen he'd be takes even a little bit of a risk, not only am i not i'm not even tired really exhilarating, you know, why we're killing her in the polls or more than the former president shortly, specifically his remarks today about the civil war and how he thinks abraham lincoln should have cut some sort of a deal with the slave-owning states of the confederacy. >> first, cnn's priscilla alvarez at the harris event the detroit suburbs. what else has harris said about former president trump's well,

anderson, we're expecting the vice president only minutes from now, but certainly she has been trying to elevate in highlight his anti-labor comments going so far as to show clips of some of those comments, something that we are recently seen that vice president, due to put him in his own words. >> now the vice president certainly ramping up her attacks of former president donald trump in three key counties, the counties that she has visited today, one of which voted for donald trump in 2016, then voted for joe biden in 2020. those other two counties, counties where biden was able to widen his margin so certainly the campaign is trying to emulate that and build on it so the vice president is going to target her messaging not only trying to criticize the former president, but also trying to showcase her own agenda and trying to make inroads, especially in the suburbs with those white college educated voters somewhere where the campaign officials i've talked to say they see an opportunity to lock in her coalition, but

also build on it. now also tell you anderson that the campaign is capitalizing on early voting tomorrow the vice president will be attending a get out the vote event with lizzo bringing in that star power too. we can get people to vote and vote early, later in the day in atlanta, she'll, later in the day she'll head to atlanta and do a rally with usher with a similar goal in mind. so now in the final stretch of this election, that campaign clearly trying to fine tune their messaging attacks on the former president. painting him as unfit. and what we've heard the vice residents say before, quote, unhinged and unstable and then also make sure that they can lock down their coalition and especially capitalize on the early voting. and those states where they can anderson and what about next week? >> and it's only her schedule other than the cnn town hall well a source tells me that the vice president is expected to do a joint event with former republican congresswoman liz cheney. of course, this is part of this continued push to try

to reach gop voters. now, this is going to be potentially a town hall or a moderated conversation so again, this is part of a push by the harris campaign to peel off voters for former president donald trump. in addition to that, sources tell me she will be visiting those battleground states and doing multiple stops a day. so certainly an aggressive travel schedule ahead as she tries to walk in this coalition and prom election day all right. thanks very much. going to listen to the vice president shortly first in form. presidents mike phone does not seem to be working right now. these are live pictures. he seems just be kind of wondering around the stage, waiting for them to fix the problem we'll check in with him a little bit later, joining us now cnn political commentator scott jennings and jamal simmons also politico's meridith mcgraw and cnn senior data reporter. harry enten. harry would have pulling areas fine. whatever you want, you can feel free to wander around the state we what does that

current polling in michigan liquid, that would be quite a said wouldn't it be right on your show, me wandering around, look at michigan, you can't get any tighter than it is right now. man, i mean, a month ago kamala harris was up by two points you look at the average of polls today. she's up by less than a point if that holds until the final day of this election cycle, it will be the closest polled race in michigan in history. i went back in my spreadsheet, you know, i loved doing that since 1,972. there has been a closer poll. the race than what we have going on right now in the wolverine state now, in terms of asleep in a bit of spreads to actually true, i actually got a bad spreadsheets. i actually felt fell asleep and my suit on wednesday night, but that's a whole other thing. anyway, you look, michigan is so important to both of these folks. map to 270 electoral votes. the chance that kamala harris wins if she wins michigan is north of 80% the chance that donald trump wins the election if he wins in michigan, is north of 90%, the bottom line is donald trump knows that if you can go into michigan when a state he won in

2016 that joe biden won in 2020, kamala harris's path to 270 electoral votes is awfully, awfully difficult jamal, i mean, you heard vice president harris, once again declining to say what she would have done differently from biden. >> this is the third sort of publicly time that she's been asked that question is is her answer the right one at this point, you know, i think it is the right one because the attack on kamala harris, right now is about comparing past statements to current statements what is she what does she believe? if she changes something about what happened with the president, the former the current president? i imagine the republicans within attack her about that, right? so the idea here, i believe is that this is about loyalty and is better for her to be loyal even if they think it might cost her a little something in the beginning, it doesn't open up another line of attack. here's what she's doing. that's very good though, in michigan. she's going after donald trump's is on the front foot. she's going out for information exhausted. she going after him for not showing up. she's traveling around the state, you know, when you're a kid in michigan, you learn geography

very easily. she started out over here in grand rapids. she went here to lansing and now she's here in detroit, right? it's been moving across the state that shows a level of activity in the campaign and some of us were worried about a couple of weeks ago at the campaign just wasn't doing enough events every day. she's now doing two or three event today and that i think is also going to compel the attention to what to the campaign that she needs murder essentially own jamal's point previously, she would just wouldn't answer of what made her different from joe biden initially, it seemed like that meant there was no difference. >> now, she's saying, well, this is a loyalty thing. i'm just not going to speak about it. >> it is a fine line that she has to walk and you saw it play out just in that clip with nbc, where she is trying to say, i'm respectful of the man that i'm serving with, but the same time i am the change candidate. and who is the change? candidate in this election? how voters perceive who it is, whether it's harris or trump is really the whole ballgame.

and so she is trying to convince voters that, yeah, i'm the vice president, and yet i do have all of these policy differences with biden. the question is whether voters are going to buy that just see what if the ferocity of personal trump to speak king stage wondering what will come back very quickly in the harris campaign analysis, this is about a change from donald trump, not joe biden. >> got to keep the attention on trump if they think that she has a chance to put scott. >> we mentioned there according that a trump adviser told the shade room that trump was quote, exhausted and backed out of an interview which harris already seized on the trump campaign is denying it i mean, is that a mistake for him to skip out on multiple interviews with just a little more than two weeks to go or i mean, it's not a site that's on instagram sort of targets an african american audience what do you make of that yeah, i don't really buy it. >> i mean, trump's done more media interviews and he's done

more events than harris. number one, number two, kamala harris herself didn't show up for the chicago economic club. she bailed out on time i mean, look, i think what the campaigns are doing is they're picking and choosing what makes the most sense for them to it's been their time at the end of the campaign. it's not uncommon to schedule some things, take other things off the schedule. trump looks pretty vigorous to me. he went to the al smith dinner last night and did 30 minutes to stand up. kamala harrison and another cringy video. i think trump is in fine shape and he's doing plenty of events and media opportunities right now, far more than harris it's done i don't really think he needs a larger up the schedule of his campaign doesn't think it's critical to winning. >> harris eris, harry, already whatever man. >> where does harris were to harris and trump need to pick up voters in michigan, you know, both were more an oakland county today. why when they oakland county, where part of it is, is that there are more whites with college college, degree is in oakland county than anywhere else in the state. and whereas kamala harris doing very well right now, she is doing very well among white voters with college

degrees, doing ten points better than joe biden did four years ago, donald trump wants to stop that bleeding, bring that back to where we were back in 2020 where of course he did lose the state. but the reason he wants to bring it back to 2020 is because he's doing better amongst other groups if you know anything about the great state of michigan union households are so important in that state and other kamala harris is still leading amongst those were in union households, her margin is smaller than it was four years ago at this particular point are small and joe biden's was at this 0.4 years ago. so the bottom line harris is doing better among those with a college degree, while trump is doing better among those in the working class, and it's gonna be interesting to see how those two balance themselves out at the very end. it right now, they're balancing them out very closely and that's why we have such a tight race and over reno didn't kamala harris is just taking the stage in michigan and i don't i don't think president trump, from first trump speaking at we'll bring you bring live remarks when the boats start to start

speaking. let's go to alayna treene, who's actually at the trump event. alayna, what is going on couple of minutes into donald trump having taken the stage and beginning his remarks, he was in the middle of speaking when all of a sudden his audio completely cut out. >> you could actually see the former president trying to continue speaking you couldn't hear anything. and this has been going on now for over ten minutes. it's he has absolutely no audio. i watched us staffers here on the ground, brought him another mic. that one didn't work as well i'm not sure if you can see it behind me, but they have to screen major screens up flanking the stage where donald trump is. they have put up essentially an announcement saying that they are having technical difficulties in the meantime, the former president has just been kind of pacing around on stage, looking around, note the crowd, shaking his head. but that's kind of the state of how things are right now. it's unclear what when he is going to get audio back.

>> and yeah, also, just as give you a sense of what he was saying at the time he was trying to say that one of his favorite words or his favorite word in the dictionary is tariffs, but he didn't even get to deliver that final line before his audio correct. to bring back some audio will play some of what he says. let's go back to how harris, let's listen in a little bit with her community has deep and proud roots in the detroit metro area. >> and i am proud to have the support of arab american leaders it is like wayne county deputy we need a medic. okay. we need a medic. >> let's figure out a way to part a little bit so that we can bring a medic in over here, please? >> okay

medic over there too that what we're saying two. candidates and people standing up their knees, they're not, these are not bac folder needs are not been they don't have water. they don't make it so he's out with he saw the other night with donald trump. again here i think received more over the next couple she's she was just sort of talking about support among arab americans in michigan. >> obviously, this has been a big issue for her where do you think she actually stands on in terms of support? because i mean, there's a lot of people whether they're whether people who are unhappy about the biden administration's policy vis-a-vis israel and gaza you know, it's not it's not clear when they vote for trump or were they just stay home or vote for another candidate in

protests? >> but it doesn't look like they're going to move toward trump. she is in danger of losing losing some of the arab american vote from what i'm hearing in detroit and detroit metropolitan area. but in that area, you know, it's a very diverse community there are people who are ere of american or muslim. there are called dns who are christians. there are people who are lebanese. so there are all sorts of people who are there and they feel differently about the issues. it's about 1%, maybe a little bit less than 1% population in the state that is from the middle east so let's say she loses 35 or 40% of that. that's going to matter in a very close race. but this community, i want you to do is changing alliances and oakland county, one of the things perry, was just mentioning the college kate had whites. detroit has lost a lot of population over the course of the last decade or so, allow those people now live in oakland county. people like my brother and his family who left the city of detroit, but they now live out know when county. but she's not just talking to college-educated whites, but also african americans, arab americans, who are who have now moved out to more suburban area. >> we've got to take a quick

break next, the phone british new ways is it on suggestion than abraham lincoln should have his word settled the civil war later, more breaking news, we'll take you live to the event in arizona with former president obama >> i promised peak that every day. >> if you vote for me, i promised me to everyday unlimited top banks. >> but does the infrastructure even exist for that ethan excellent question. >> dana, why are we not talking about the fact that my opponent has coatings unlimited recess by linking our tiktok accounts with the family pairing tool. >> it's easy to make sure what my teens are watching on their tiktok is safe and age appropriate jar select family movie night, no. family pairing on tiktok for more than a decade are seeing that has been

lincoln should have settled the civil war, has happened after a ten-year-old from oklahoma asked trump who his favorite president was when he was little. trump said ronald reagan, who was president when trump was 34-years-old, not a child, but then he turned abraham lincoln thought he was like, i didn't love his trade policy. i'm a very good job. i've made some great trade deals for us. lincoln was probably a great president, although i've always said why was in that settled here? not my guy that it doesn't make sense where the civil war have left before he got there. yeah. but you almost say like, why wasn't that as an example, ukraine would have never happened in russia if i were president foreign president, as you know, says, he'll quickly in the ukraine war without actually saying how and recently blamed ukraine's president for russia's invasion today's remarks about settling the civil war, by the way, were not his first here he is back in january. january 6, actually, to be precise. >> so many mistakes were

think could have been negotiated to be honest with you, i think you could have negotiated that all the people died. so many people died. abraham lincoln, of course, if you negotiated it, you probably wouldn't even know who abraham lincoln was again, he said that on the anniversary of the worst attack on democracy since the civil war. and separately, he also weighed in today on the people in prison for attacking the cattle, comparing them to japanese americans in turned unfairly during world war ii scott jennings is back joining us also cnn political commentator bakari sellers, a former south carolina state lawmaker bakari does it make sense to you, don from things abraham lincoln should have negotiated and settled the civil war well, first of all, nothing he said makes sense. i think what we're seeing is a very, very diminished man. i think that the person who is running for president of the united states today isn't the same person who ran for president of the united states eight years ago. i think he, he calls it the, we've but for most of us who are listening, it's nonsensical he, referred to abraham lincoln as probably

a great president. and this morning, i mean, what he did was he went to his campaign headquarters and met with his campaign volunteers and called it fox news look, there's nothing about this campaign that makes much sense from donald trump. but the unique problem is for the harris campaign. and my good friend and people in democrats is that this is already baked into the cake. people know that he's not making sense. people know that he is sometimes unintelligible. people know that he doesn't have a grasp before american history, people know that it's makeup doesn't blend well, like these are all things that people know. but yet and still commonly, harris as a woman running for president of the united states has to run the oneten hurdles and do a backflip in hills in the standard is completely different and she recognizes that and she's going out and outworking him day in and day out. she's actually making sense while donald trump is meandering and doing the we've talking about the civil war and

how maybe they should have given a little bit of slavery await to the north i mean, this is a just somebody who is not fit to be president of the united states. and no matter what pretzel anybody turns himself into i mean, our eyes can tell the truth scott, i mean, guard said, this is baked in this is not going to move the needle at all, but i mean, does it, is this doesn't make sense to you that he thinks abraham lincoln should have settled the civil war no, not really. i mean, look, i think he has a general disposition that war is bad and that he's running as an anti-war type candidate. he believes that you should try to avoid war. i think that's a general baseline position of his. i know he said this earlier this year as well. lots of politicians did try to settle it and never compromises punts and all the way down the field. and then obviously we had the civil war for the very obvious reason of eradicating slavery because you said a war, it's, you, let's look, keep slavery

in the confederate states and not in it. >> it just seems, i mean, they're to be, arguing for yeah, i mean, look, it's sort of this sort of irrelevant historical meandering. i mean he got asked a simple question by a kid who's your favorite president? i'm, and i'm from kentucky, i would say abraham lincoln to that. that would also be my sort of esoteric or irrelevant historical kicking around what could have been, might have been, should have been, but no. >> i mean, maybe maybe somebody maybe i like history a lot, but i mean, i know it's maybe it's an actual target, but he is running to be president united states. >> and if the model is, if there is a if there are confederate states that have slavery, which are seceding from the union, that should have been negotiated and settled yeah, if it was just a guy in a bar, are having this

argument, it wouldn't matter but was wanting to be the president united states, i mean, i don't know. >> maybe, maybe, maybe he thinks, maybe he thinks that politicians could have negotiated an end to slavery without the bloodshed. i mean, that would be a charitable look at this, right? maybe they could have settled it and gotten the south to agree to go. but again, and look where we're sitting here kicking around things that have happened so long ago and that have long has since been settled when we have so many pressing problems in this country, which is why he's actually winning the election today, because the pressing problems that people are blaming on biden, that's why he's winning, not kicking around history, but kicking around the present day we've got to take a quick break. scott. >> thank you. bakari sellers, please stick around coming up more breaking news for a former president obama. questions donald trump's mental fitness during a rally in arizona before election day, vice president harris bases voters and takes to pressing questions, lie anderson cooper moderates a cnn presidential town hall, kamala harris, wednesday at nine eastern on
