brian stelter was sitting where you were sitting last night? he said, trump was pretty funny. do you think it was smart for kamala harris to skip it? >> i think it was very smart for the vice president to skip the event because then it just becomes a battle of name-calling between her and trump. if trump was completed game straight up and do jokes and do structured jokes that actually have some degree of angle to them versus him just gone but talking about a man in the last couple of weeks has called her stupid has called her like just so many different insults with no punchline, with no structure to it. if i'm the madam vice president, i'm trying to go and get everybody else's votes. i know the purpose of that event is to raise money for catholic charities. she contributed a video that's just that's just got to be what it is we talked about it. who didn't show up to the correspondents dinner for a couple of times. >> and that's right. yeah. the correspondents dinner is not a place he likes to be at all. roy actually, roy was also very good at the correspondence in array looking forward to the show tomorrow, have i got news for you? everyone else? thank you very much for joining us.

>> tonight on 360, which just 18 days left the vice president, a former president, make michigan. their focus and she talks about trump's alleged exhaustion. and trump earlier today says abraham lincoln should have cut a deal to end the civil war so tonight, former president obama campaigns in arizona, one of 22020 blue states for the harris campaign is fighting an uphill and later at the impact of elon musk 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 president harris expected to speak any moment now and all important. oakland county, michigan, which encompasses much of detroit, northern suburbs on the right, that 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 lightly for not fully answering. here's how it went 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 their presidents. >> 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 she went on to lay out how she would differ on policy if elected, pointing to her plans 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 portably 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 va vice president who has talked to the shade room. here's what she said today in grand rapids, michigan i've

been hearing reports that his team at least is 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 the job late today? >> he had a reply what did i can't i haven't can't tell if she doesn't go to any events. she's a loser. she doesn't go to any events. you didn't even show up for the catholics last night? at the hotel? it was insulting they all they are soundbites. i've gotten 48 days now without arrest, and i've got that loser who doesn't the energy of a rabid taught me when you've seen me take 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 never in the

polls are more on 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 in the detroit suburbs. what else has harris said about form president trump? >> well, anderson, we're expecting the vice president only minutes from now, but certainly she has been trying to elevate and highlight his anti-labor comments going so far as to show clips of some of those comments it's something that we are recently seen. the vice president do to put him in his own world 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 20 he's 16, then voted for joe biden in 2020. those other two counties, counties where biden was able to widen his margins. and 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 try rein

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 are the vice president will be attending a get out the vote event with lizzo bringing in that star power to again, get people to vote and vote early, later in the day in atlanta, she will be later in the day. she'll head to atlanta and do a rally with usher with the similar goal in mind 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 president say before and 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 on 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 prime president donald trump. and 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 tried to walk in this coalition come election day all right. thanks very much. going to listen to vice president shortly first in detroit, 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 what does that current polling in michigan liquid, that would be quite a scene, 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 then 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 love 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 mesh, sleep and a bit of spreads to actually sure, i have a bad if spreadsheets i actually fell asleep on my suit on monday 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 and i'm line is donald trump knows that if you can go into michigan, win 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 president 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 is she believe? if she changes something about what happened with the president, the former the current president? i imagined 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 is doing. that's very good though, in michigan, she's going after donald trump is on the front foot. she's going after him for being 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, rights have been moving across the state that shows a level of activity, either campaign and some of us were worried about a couple of weeks ago at the campaign, just wasn't and doing enough vince every day she's now doing two or three events today and that i think is also going to compel the attention to what to the campaign that she needs murder isn't she going jamal's point? >> previously, she just wouldn't answer of what made her different from joe biden initially, it seemed like that then 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 judge foresee person trump is speaking >> so he's already saw on stage wondering what will come back this very quickly? in? the harris campaign analysis, this is about a change from donald trump, not joe biden. they've 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 it targeted 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 king campaigns are doing is they're picking and choosing what makes the most sense for them to spend 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 harris, son in another cringy video i think trump is in fine shape and he's doing plenty of it events in media opportunities right now, far more than harris has 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? well for more on oakland county today, why were they oakland county where part of it is that there are more whites with college degrees 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 is doing better amongst other types, if you know anything about the great state of michigan union households are so important in that state. and although 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 is 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 in them over arena harris is just taking the stage in michigan and i don't know. i don't think president trump, from prison. trump was speaking. we'll bring we'll bring live remarks when they when they both start to start speaking, let's go to alayna treene, who's actually ad that trump event, alayna, what is going on 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 and 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 some 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 two screens, major screens up flanking the stage where donald trump is. they have put up essentially an

announcement saying that they are having technical the phone, call days in the meantime, the former president has just been kind of pacing around on stage, looking around, not the crowd, shaking his head. but that's kind of the state of how things are right now. it's unclear when he is going to get audio back and also just to 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 to bring back some law what do you will will play some of what he says. >> let's go back to and how harris, let's listen in a little bit with her has deep and proud roots in the detroit metro area. >> and i am proud to have the support of arab american leaders like way in 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 medical for there to that what we're saying presidential. candidates and people standing up their knees, or not. these are not bac folder needs are not that they don't have water. they don't make it so you saw what they saw this every night with donald trump again here, i think we're seeing more she's she was just talking about support among arab american 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 there 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? >> well, 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, the detroit metropolitan area. but in that area, you know, it's a very diverse community. there are people who are, you know, every 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. they feel so differently about the issues it's about a 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 to know is changing. alliances and oakland county, one of the things harry was just mentioning the college white, detroit has lost a lot

of population over the course of the last decade or so, allow those people now live in oakland county and people like my brother and his family who left the city of detroit, but they now live out in oakland 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 britain's new weighs in on suggestion that 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 before election day. vice president harris bases voters and takes the pressing questions, lie anderson cooper moderates a cnn potential townhome, kamala harris, wednesday, eastern on cnn sydney. >> see many quality watch. >> what's your way? >> it could be anything

deal with the slave-owning confederate states. >> trump said lincoln should have settled the civil war, is 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 so i like ronald reagan. i thought he was look, 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, and although i've always said why wasn't that settled here? not my guy that it doesn't make sense. we have a civil war, have left before he got there. yeah. yeah. but you don't must 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 made, see there was something i 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 capitol, comparing them to japanese americans in turned unfairly during world war ii scott jennings is back joining us also cnn political commentator bakari sellers, 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 me and 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 were listening, it's nonsensical he referred to

abraham lincoln as probably a great president. and in this morning, i mean, what he did was he went to his campaign headquarters and met with his campaign volunteers there's in called at 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. and 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 talked talking about the civil

war and how maybe they should have given a little bit of slavery away 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 we 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. so 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 compromise this isn't 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, the war

it's, let's look, keep slavery in the confederate states and not in it just seems you can think to be arguing for yeah. >> i mean, look, it's sort of this sort of irrelevant historical meandering. i mean, you know he got asked a simple question by a kid who your favorite president? i mean, i'm from kentucky, i would say abraham lincoln to that. that would also be my answer. then i would have moved on to other republicans that i revere, like teddy roosevelt and dwight eisenhower so no, i look, it's, it's sort of esoteric or irrelevant historical kicking around what could have been, might have been, should have been, but no. >> i mean, maybe somebody maybe i like history a lot, but i mean, i know it's maybe it's an enteric, but it's he is running to be president united states. and if the model is, if there's 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 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, 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 awaiting the election today, because the pressing problems that people are blaming on biden, that's why he's winning not kicking around and 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 are ghosted by their plug-ins. >> new air week advanced, groundbreaking plug-in that pulses sin for staying power up to 60 days plus the fragrance
