few big players are trying to get the outcome they want. they're trying to influence people by making it look like, i guess in this case, trump is winning. you're skeptical, though yeah. >> i mean there are a few big players that are playing these markets and sometimes they move them around a little bit. but the premise of manipulation is if if somebody comes in and pushes the market to a level where it won't be that the rest of the country is going to notice that, and it's either going to dissuade them from voting because they're depressed or energized them to vote because they think their candidate is going to win. i don't think that these betting markets are going to change anybody's opinion, so it's a waste of time to manipulate these markets, which is why i push back on that argument. >> all right. well, jim thank you very much. i'm glad to see you. we'll see what happens over these next few days. have a good reihan salam tonight on 360. >> new polling, some of the last before the election. on where the race stands and how it might change over the next

four days. also, liz cheney and vice president harris respond to what the former president said about cheney last night and the former president's follow up to cnn's question about it today. plus, trump says vaccine falsehood promoter robert f. kennedy jr. would have a, quote, big role in health care if he's elected. what role would that be? and apparently it may include vaccines. good evening. thanks for joining us. with just four days to go, the two candidates are both in wisconsin tonight. vice president harris just wrapped up herer second of thre events in the state today in the town of little chute, just outside appleton. she's heading to a milwaukee suburb shortly. the former president in milwaukee at the top of the next hour at the same venue where he accepted the republican nomination. this summer. wisconsin and the other so-called blue wall states critical for both campaigns which is why we're starting out with new polling from marist and cnn's john king to walk us through it. so, john, what is the new polling from the blue wall states show anderson remember those blue wall states trump won him in 2016? >> he was president. joe biden flipped him back in 2020. he's

president. so let's look at the new polling. and i'm going to do it in the context of our map that shows the path to 270 electoral votes. let's look first at the new marist poll that you just mentioned. and if you're a democrat tonight, you're looking at this and you're happy. i'll add the caveat. it's just one poll, so be careful. but look at this. in the end harris at 50 to 48 in pennsylvania 51 to 48. in michigan, 50 to 48. in wisconsin, no clear leader within the margin of error. but significantly, harris at 50% or more in all of those polls donald trump about where he was in 2016 and 2020. he is consistent across these states and over the campaign. so just one poll. but if you're a democrat, you think maybe we're closing strong so let's average them out. let's be safe. that's the best way to do it is you take, as we do in our cnn poll of polls, the last five reputable polls in each of these states. and you have no clear leader a dead heat in pennsylvania, maybe a slight harris edge, but again, 49 to 46 and then 49 to 46. in wisconsin. so if you're kamala harris, nothing is easy. anderson but you're seeing these polls, our cnn polls this week had her ahead with pennsylvania tie ahead. and the other two marist has her ahead

in those other two wisconsin, michigan and a tie here. if you're the vice president and you hold that lead you've had in wisconsin for some time, even though it's narrow, you hold that lead you've had in michigan for some time, even though it's narrow and you can somehow win here where i am, which is very close in the commonwealth of pennsylvania, those three states alone, with all the other likely and solid democratic states, would get the vice president of the united states to 270. and she would be the next president. not easy. not done. but that is her easiest path in this recent polling does show it's more than a viable possibility. >> and if the blue wall states go to trump if you imagine 2016 again, they're that close. they are that close. the democrats are happy in the end. but it is just as conceivable looking at those numbers that wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania go back to donald trump now in our current map, that would only get him to 263. it wouldn't get them all the way to 270. but let's be real about this and realistic about this. if donald trump is winning all three of those, it is a very safe bait, very safe bet that he's winning at least one, if not two or more of the remaining states. now nevada would not be enough

electoral votes to get trump over the top. you see, it would just get him to 269. but again, if he's winning, the blue wall states again like he did in 2016, he's going to be the president. without a doubt. >> as we mentioned, you've been in five swing states in five days. have voters said anything that surprised you because you've been following up with a lot of these same people over the years there's one common theme that comes up with democrats and republicans both think there's a secret vote out there. >> republicans tell you that there are people who voted for biden, who voted democratic. they're mad about inflation. they don't think harris is ready to be president. and they're not telling anybody, but they're going to vote. trump and then you meet other people and some have walked up to me and even said, this is happening in their own family, where they're in republican families but the woman, the partner is going to at least the woman is going to vote for kamala harris because of the dobbs decision, because of reproductive rights because of donald trump's toxic character sometimes. so both sides think there's a secret vote out here. i'll tell you here in swarthmore, this is a very liberal community. this is one of the suburbs where the vice president has to run it up. one thing you do find here, and you find this among a lot of democrats, is a little bit of

anxiety. is this 2020 where you run it up in the suburbs and you win the close races, or is it 2016? a lot of people have raised this question. we're a little bit of sexism and maybe a little bit of racism now in harris's case, kicks in and costs her just a little bit of the vote. so democrats are both more optimistic and more anxious all at the same time. >> all right, john king we'll see you a little bit later talking to pennsylvania voters. and you're all over the map series right now, though the back and forth over what the former president said last night to tucker carlson about former republican congresswoman katherine harris, supporter liz cheney >> let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrel shooting at her okay. let's see how she feels about it. you know, when the guns are trained on her face, you know, they're all war hawks when they're sitting in washington in a nice building saying, oh gee, will, let's send let's send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy. >> well, cheney posted her reaction on social media quoting her, now, this is how dictators destroy free nations. they threaten those who speak

against them with death. vice president harris also weighed in anyone who wants to be president of the united states, who uses that kind of violent rhetoric is clearly disqualified and unqualified to be president now, later today, when asked by cnn's kate sullivan about cheney interpreting his remarks as a threat in her life, the former president said this i think that liz cheney is a disaster. >> all she wants to do is blow people up. she's a war hawk and a dumb one at that. and if you ever put her into the field of battle, she'd be the first one to check it out she wouldn't fight. she'd chicken out so fast. and that's all i say. >> well, joining us now cnn political analyst, new york times, senior political correspondent maggie haberman, also cnn political commentator adam kinzinger and david urban and ashley etienne, former communications director for vice president harris. maggie, earlier today, the former president said more about cheney on truth social, saying

in part she wouldn't have the guts to fight herself. it's easier for her to talk sitting far from where the death scenes take place, but put a gun in her hand and let her go fight and she'll see. no thanks end quote. obviously coming from a guy who avoided the draft in vietnam, alleging bone spurs, that's one data point in all of this. how do you see this back and forth today i don't think it's helpful to the trump campaign. >> i mean, they're spending the entire day talking about this. he's had to clean it up. his aides have been talking to reporters about it. at least one of his stops in michigan, he posted on truth social. the clip is playing over and over again. you know, he he appeared to be talking about the the long standing criticism of people who send others into war that they wouldn't go themselves. and, you know, liz cheney has been called a hawk particularly violent way. and so of course, this is going to get attention in the final days and it shouldn't really be a surprise. i will say, anderson, you know, he has also reposted or reproofed or whatever you

call it on his website. another user saying that she was guilty of treason and calling for a military tribunal. so this is, you know in keeping with the kind of rhetoric he's been using for a while, right? >> i mean, he's also talked about, you know, mark milley and what would happen in past days about the death penalty for for treason. congressman, you're a veteran of the wars in iraq and afghanistan. conservative former house republican like liz cheney, who endorsed kamala harris. what's your reaction yeah. >> and anderson, i've also lived threats like this, maybe not directly from him but get them every day. this isn't a joke. this isn't something that we can, you know sit around and somebody try to excuse is he really meant she'd die on the battlefield a couple of big points here. first off, we get told we can't call trump a fascist. and we can't say he's a threat to democracy because, oh, my god, that's going to create violence. but he can say liz cheney on a battlefield or he didn't say battlefield with nine guns pointed at her face it's an

oddly specific number by the way, and you can tell in his mind he may have been thinking about battle, but then he's visualizing nine guns pointing at liz cheney's face. so look i've lived this stuff we're talking about people's lives here. why we can't just have a grown up that for once doesn't have to go that route. and lastly, let me say this. if donald trump is saying that anybody who is scared of battle somehow can't have an opinion or can't do anything regarding national defense and what the hell is he doing running for president? because there is nobody watching this show right now that believes that donald trump wouldn't be scared to death if he was on the field of battle. so now he's saying since he would be scared to death, he can't send people into war. he is not qualified to be president for any number of reasons. but just add this to the list now to david. >> you're a graduate of west point, i should point out, awarded the bronze star for your service during desert storm. what do you make of the

congressman's perspective so which congressman? >> so, so listen, anderson, i am glad that you played the entire clip, right. a lot of people weren't playing the clip. and and i think that's how this got spun up congressman knows he's he's a veteran. he knows and he knows us well the biggest responsibility you have as a member of congress or in the government are the young men. and women in our armed forces. right. putting those people in harm's way. and that's what the president is talking about. whether or not we should put young men and women in harm's way. and it's easy. liz cheney's father who by all accounts lied to the american public, lied to the world about the first, about the first aumf that was that was enacted in in 2002 and which stood in place until just a few years ago, which was used over and over and over again, authorized use of military put our young men and what are you talking about? yeah, yeah. so it was used over and over again. and the

congressman knows this. there's big debates about this congressman put forth his own aumf to, to, you know, to, to take up arms against ukraine. if needed. but these are things that should be debated debated full throatedly amongst our congress and leaders and donald trump is making that point. listen, if we're going to spend our most precious resource, we need to make sure that people are people, have a full throated discussion and it's not just kick the can down the road for 20 years, like we did in afghanistan, we had 21 year wars in afghanistan and that's why people are weary today about further entanglement and getting getting caught up in more wars. and i think that's why unfortunately, like i support congressman kinzinger and i feel the same way about ukraine, but unfortunately the american people, lots of them don't because they've been misled in the past right? he said. none of that. but go ahead. go ahead. congressman well, what does pointing nine guns at her face have to do with the fact that congress should debate stuff and yeah, congress should debate that congressman, unfortunately, with donald trump, he never

came to congress donald trump made decisions as he does under article two of the constitution but to say nine guns pointed at her face, she doesn't have a right to that all she wants to do is get people killed. and this guy is scared to death of the battlefield, too and yet he wants to be president. he's scared to stand up and use the military evidently, because if you'd be frightened on a battlefield, you're unqualified. it's a garbage thing. and to defend it makes no sense to me. this is people's lives. we're playing with and, you know, cheap political points i just think that he's greeted. >> he's greeted grieving families at dover. i haven't i don't know if you stood there. i've not done that. i've not made those phone calls. i think that's a pretty big responsibility that every president has. and i think that changes you and it changes the way you look at things. >> ashley. i mean, how much do you expect the the harris campaign to emphasize these comments moving forward? or do you think today was it. >> no, i mean absolutely, they're going to continue to sort of seize on this opportunity because, you know, it's this serves as an example

of the corrosive nature that donald trump has had on not just our nation, but our nation's politics. he knows exactly what he's doing. he's repeatedly his words have repeatedly led to violence and you know, there's no question left about who donald trump is. so from my perspective, i think the campaign is going to lean into to the point that there's a choice here in this election and, you know, if donald trump wins, it really says more about the character of this nation than it does about donald trump, that people are going to go into the the booth and affirm that this is the person that they want representing them in the world. they're going to condone this type of of action. and corrosive, violent dangerous actions from the president i mean, actions i wouldn't even condone from my nine year old. so for me, it really leaves this begs this question of the 48% that's holding firm behind donald trump, where you know what is beyond the pale anymore. if

it's not you know, inciting an insurrection, you know being, you know, violent rhetoric toward members of congress, the worst economy in modern history what is beyond the pale anymore if not this kind of stuff? >> maggie? is it clear to you how the former president is feeling about the race right now? i mean do you have any sense of of is he confident? how is his advisers feel, at least yeah, he's very confident. >> and and most of his advisers are very confident. there is a tier of people around the campaign not necessarily directly in it, who are a little more anxious. they're not quite certain what to make of what they're seeing in terms of some of the data. and they're not quite certain what to make in terms of what they're seeing of trump's upcoming schedule. he's going to north carolina apparently several times in the next couple of days. this was these were late adds to his schedule. you don't normally go to a battleground state. four times in three days. if you're not at least somewhat concerned about about shoring it up so, you know, all of these states are

within margins of error. and again, the trump team has felt very good about it based on their read of early vote data. but this is the two campaigns have very different models that they're using of what the turnout looks like. and who is voting for whom. and one of them will be right and one won't. can i make just one more point, anderson, though, as we're having this conversation about donald trump and things, he says and so forth donald trump has been uh, this is not some new version of donald trump. this is not a new person who's running this cycle. he is the same person he has always been. he is a person with much less of a filter than he had before. the language is much darker. it is often more rambling and more incoherent but he is somebody who has often glorified violence. he has been saying things like this since the 2016 campaign. it's not like, you know, he might be at a at a 60 now, and he was at a 30 before, but he certainly was never at a zero. and so the degree to which people who were around him and supported him and tolerated it throughout the presidency or throughout the 2016 campaign, i understand that what happened in the aftermath of the 2020

election was unlike anything we have seen before, and that was a breaking point for a lot of people, although not not by any means. most republicans. but he's not significantly different than who he was before that. >> we're going to pick up this conversation shortly. we'll have more from the team next. breaking news from the supreme court on voting in pennsylvania. it's important what the court just said about mail in ballots and what it could mean. one of the most hotly contested states of the campaign and later, what voters in the philadelphia suburbs are telling john king about their choice this election, as well as echoes of 2016, when hillary clinton tried and failed to win pennsylvania. more on that ahead class president with these slogans wow. working on campaign posters. >> kasie hunt yep. vote for madison because she's so cool and has the best snacks at her house. >> so in my experience as a political reporter, the best campaign slogans are short and memorable. >> like this well, that's definitely memorable

sleep number bed? i like to sleep cool and i like to sleep even cooler. >> and i really like it when we both get what we want. >> introducing the new sleep number climate cool smart bed. sleep up to 15 degrees cooler on each side visit a sleep number store near you. >> every member of the military is tested for mental fitness except the commander in chief, who has the most responsibility in the world and when a moment of crisis strikes is this what we want in a president? unsure? >> the oranges of the unstable hamas terrorist invasion unpredictable and ominous it's time. >> every president is required to prove their mental fitness sign the petition for presidential mental fitness. health care for action pac is responsible for the content of this advertising millions of people have lost weight with noom like lauren, who found the perfect companion to her glp one journey. now i've gotten in the routine of noom. i'm

perhaps the pivotal state in the election, pennsylvania, where every vote is going to count and if 2020 is any guide, so will every court ruling, including the one tonight from the supreme court, which gives voters whose mail in ballots are rejected for technical reasons, it gives them a backup option. >> cnn's senior legal analyst elie honig joins us now. can you just elaborate on what the court said? >> okay. to understand this ruling, anderson, you have to understand how mail in balloting works in pennsylvania. i brought some visual aids. so if you are a voter in pennsylvania. first, you fill out your ballot not a not an official ballot. you fill out your ballot. then it goes into a small envelope called the secrecy envelope. then you have to take that small envelope and put it into a larger envelope called the declaration envelope. and then you have your package ready to go you mail it in and you're good. if you do that, your vote will be counted. the problem is, a lot of voters in pennsylvania thousands forget the secrecy envelope and they just take the ballot and they put it in the declaration envelope. now under the law of pennsylvania, this ballot would be void. it was no good

democrats didn't like that. they sued. and they won. and the pennsylvania supreme court said if a person just sends in the ballot without the secrecy envelope then the voter can still go cast a provisional ballot on tuesday on election day. now republicans didn't like that. so republicans asked the u.s. supreme court to step in. and just an hour ago, the u.s. supreme court said, no, we're not stepping in. so it goes back to where we were, which is this if you are a voter in pennsylvania and you think you've sent in your ballot without the secrecy ballot, you think you screwed up somehow, you can still go to the ballot and place the voting place on tuesday and put in a provisional vote and it will be counted. but would you know, i mean, if you're right, how do you know? so great question. some counties in pennsylvania will notify you. they will send you a notice saying hey, we got your mail in ballot. you screwed it up. it's void. therefore you can go cast a provisional ballot. other counties don't give the notification so i guess it's just one of those moments of oh no, did i maybe send it in wrong? in which case, again,

that's what a provisional ballot is for. it's a just in case ballot. >> so this was decided on the what they called the emergency docket. there were no noted dissents alito, thomas gorsuch they wrote a brief separate statement explaining their decision. i want to put up on the screen what they said. they said even if we agreed with the applicants, federal constitutional argument, a question on which i express no view at this time, we could not prevent the consequences they fear. yeah what does that mean? so first of all, this decision tonight not to get involved by the u.s. supreme court. it was nine zero. some people i think were expecting the 6 to 3 conservative liberal split nine zero. now the three of the conservatives issued a separate decision. and essentially what we saw just there is those justices said it's sort of too little, too late. they said this dispute actually goes back to a primary from last year, and it only affected a handful of ballots. and even if we were to put that on hold that wouldn't bind statewide officials in the general election next week. so this is a big win for democrats, right? as you said. i mean, pennsylvania is the most important state. there are thousands of people who mess up the way they send in their

ballots. >> is the supreme court prepared for potential flood of litigation in this election? >> they'd better be. i mean, they're in session now. we've already seen two big rulings by the supreme court today this is all happening, by the way, important to understand what's called the emergency docket. so we're not going to see necessarily the standard briefs and briefs the other way. and then arguments they're going to be ruling very quickly. and a lot of times like this case here, it's an emergency application. so the parties are saying just step in and block this. but i think this is an interesting indicator from the supreme court. i think there's a lot of skepticism out there that they were going to want to inject themselves, maybe in favor of the republican candidate. that's not what they did tonight. all right. elie honig, thanks so much. joining us right now, veteran pollster and communications strategist frank luntz, also kristen soltis anderson, who is a republican pollster and cnn political commentator so, frank, we mentioned at the top of the program the new marist polling showing harris leading trump and so-called blue wall states of pennsylvania, michigan wisconsin, all within the margin of error um, do you take anything away from that? >> i take that it's impossible that it's so close and that it

is impossible to figure out the mindset. to me, i'm not looking as much at the polling anymore because that's determined. i don't believe there are any more undecideds. there are still uncommitted. there are still persuadables. but if you're undecided, you reject both candidates. you don't like them. you're not going to voting for them. to me, i'm trying to figure out what the turnout is going to be and the group that i'm watching more than any other are young women. if they come out in significant numbers, if they make a bigger percentage of the overall voter pool, then that is great news for harris. that may propel her. the other group that i'm watching are latinos. some of that has been muddied over what happened in madison square garden earlier this week, but the latino population is voting in good numbers in the western states and that's critical in arizona and nevada. what they do could also be decisive. >> kristen the marist poll also found a significant gender gap in each state. the gender gap, i think 12 points in

pennsylvania, 17 in michigan, 21 in wisconsin, with harris having the advantage with women trumping trump having an advantage with men. how impactful could that be? do you buy any of this right now? what are you looking? what do you look at well, i certainly expect there will be a gender gap. >> there was a gender trump versus biden. so it wouldn't surprise me if we see a gender gap that's that big this time around. i think the question then will be turnout. and we know that women make up a majority of voters. but after the dobbs decision that overturned roe versus wade we know that women turned out in even bigger than expected numbers for a midterm especially those younger women that frank talked about. if that materializes, that could be a problem for trump, which is in part why he's made reaching young men such a big part of his strategy. young voters, both male and female, have not really been into republicans over the last decade. trump is trying to turn that around, knowing that he's probably not going to do well with young women. but can he try to run up the score with young men? >> frank have polls, you know, a lot of people, you know, know

that in past years, trump overperformed in some polls, have pollsters figured out a built in, you know, mechanisms? i'm not sure how it would be done to compensate for that i you have to ask every pollster because their strategies are different. >> and frankly, i don't believe in this so-called shy trump voter this time that trump people are not afraid to voice their point of view. and all the focus groups i've been doing up to up to right now, trump people are very loud, very vocal very willing to acknowledge who they voted for or will vote for and very willing to participate. that they've underestimated trump in 2016. they underestimated trump in 2020. and what we don't know is whether these pollsters have overcompensated and gone too far to to address this hidden trump voter, and that distorts the data. >> kristen, i saw a recent, i think it was in the new york times op ed where you said that despite most of the polls

showing trump and harris in a dead heat, that they that these polls don't all tell the same underlying story. what are your theories on that underlying story? how this might unfold. >> so this election could wind up being very close, but it could also turn out two very different ways under the surface about where america is heading. on the one hand, this election could be a reboot of past elections where we see familiar divides, old and young voting differently, white and voters of color voting very differently. but donald trump and kamala harris have scrambled the deck a little bit. harris has been doing better among white voters with college degrees. donald trump a little better with voters who are black and latino, especially men who are more working class, and that would scramble the way we think about our political divides. if we see a smaller generation gap, older, breaking more left, younger breaking, more right because of young men, it would be very interesting to see what our new politics would look like with those divides. >> well, kristen, just on that point, i mean, there is we see a gender gap in early voting data in the battleground

states. more women casting early votes than men. it is slightly narrower than at this point four years ago. right of looking and i say this as someone who's a pollster, i love all this data, but i'm the first person that will tell you there's a lot of uncertainty out of there. >> and just remember the benchmark. we're comparing it to. four years ago, we were in the midst of a global respiratory pandemic, a lot of states had changed the way voting was accessible in their states and so it's possible that some of these patterns have changed. some republicans who didn't want to vote early last time may have come around to it. it's hard to read a lot into what this early vote data tells us. >> all right, kristen soltis anderson, frank luntz, thank you. always good to talk to you. up next, john king joins us again to share his discussions with voters in the suburbs of philadelphia who could determine which candidate wins pennsylvania and possibly the presidency political analysis. >> we have questions about how biden said the right answers stayed awake. >> why did trump pull out of 60

minutes? >> i love pulling out. this is the news network. >> have i got news for you? tomorrow at 9:00 on cnn this is keratin debris. >> rare nail fungus grows non-x nail gel, cleans out fungus by removing keratin debris using non-x 90% of nails. improve get clinically proven results so effective it's money back guaranteed kamala backed biden on everything she supported his disastrous economic agenda higher taxes on the middle class kamala backed his open border policies and their weakness invited wars. >> president trump fights for you. his strength kept us safe. trump cut taxes for families, prices were lower and the border secure but kamala wants to double down on failure. kamala broke it president trump will fix it. >> i'm donald j. trump and i approve this message. >> look out. cause here i come. >> have you always had trouble losing weight and keeping it off? same. >> discover the power of wegovy in the marching on to the beat

panicked. >> elliott's vote is not in question. >> i don't want to go back there i see how he how he treats people and bullies people. and these are things i tell my teenage kids not to do. why would i want to see my president doing that? >> you need a sign. >> harris needs to match or beat biden's 2020 numbers in the suburbs. >> i'll fix it up. >> but elliott hears hints of apathy and of sexism hints of 2016. >> i think people were afraid to vote for a woman once it got down to the final choice, and they made a mistake. and now here we are again with that same decision facing people. and i'm worried. i'm worried it's going to happen again. >> delaware county is reliably blue, but there are pockets where trump runs strong. >> i'm most upset about the lack of a border and the lack of our sovereignty and how that's eroded in the last three years, and i feel as an american citizen, i'm underserved overtaxed. i'm kind of diminished. >> kristen capper a registered

republican at the age of 18 back in 1988, the philadelphia suburbs were red then, but capra is outnumbered in her drexel hill neighborhood now. we vote on different sides of the aisle, but we are proud americans. the american flag is outside all of our homes, and so i'm very comfortable there. >> this is her new jersey beach cottage. lola and taylor, her friendly labs. >> push on to your left there. >> and this is back in delaware county, where capra teaches figure skating. she believes trump will run stronger this year because of concerns about inflation, the border and whether harris is too liberal. >> well, i think right now there's a very quiet trump vote. he does have some bizarre behaviors, but at the end of the day i feel he's patriotic and i feel he loves this country and my version of this country a little more dearly dearly than the other side. >> the suburbs settle close races here back with us is john

king. >> harris needs to win in the suburbs. by how much >> anderson 67 counties in pennsylvania. joe biden carried only 13 of them. only 13 of 67. how do you win? by carrying only that small number. by running it up where people vote blue. let me bring in the map and show you. and let's go through these pennsylvania counties. the three collar counties right around philadelphia. it's the most competitive. see how the president did in 2020. look at how hillary clinton did four years before that. she won it but not by as much. let's move to montgomery county. she won it there pretty comfortably. but then come to 2020, joe biden won it by even more. this is where i am tonight. delaware county. look at that huge biden margin four years before that, hillary clinton also won it, but not quite as big in just those three counties, in just those three counties, montgomery, bucks and delaware. hillary clinton beat donald trump by 162,000 votes in those same three counties. joe biden beat donald trump by 239,000 votes. what is the difference there?

let me come back to the 2020 map. joe biden got 76,000 more votes, 76,000 vote advantage over hillary clinton in those three suburban counties right? how much did he win pennsylvania by 81,000 votes. suburban math matters. harris runs it up here. she has a chance. all right john king, thanks very much. coming up, john f kennedy jr. has endorsed a number of false conspiracy theories, particularly about vaccines. he also admitted to dumping a dead bear in central park. so why does the former president want to give him a top position overseeing health care? why does he keep mentioning it on the campaign trail? our panel weighs in next. >> how it three new episodes. >> there is no case that is too cold. >> we instantly recognized that our world forever changed how it really happened. new episodes starting sunday, november 17th at nine on am premium wireless. >> $15 a month at mint mobile when my premium wireless for $15 a month. i think why not premium wireless for $15 a month? let's be honest.

kennedy jr. would have a major role overseeing health care in a future trump administration. despite kennedy's well-documented history of endorsing medical conspiracy theories. kennedy was standing right behind trump as he was saying it he said last night you would essentially let robert f. >> kennedy jr. do whatever he wants with health care. >> what he's going to have a big role in health care. hey, we just we just left. in fact, i think he might be here. >> he's right. he's right here. you're comfortable with his view on hhs, with his views on vaccines. >> mr. president, we'll be talking about a lot of things but he's going to have a big role in health care, a very big role. it's an hhs. >> he knows it better than anybody. >> he's got some views that i happen to agree with very strongly. and i have for a long time. >> trump's comments come a day after he specifically mentioned vaccines being a part of kennedy's health care portfolio in a future administration he really wants to, with the pesticides and the, you know, all the different things i said he could do it. >> he can do anything he wants. he wants to look at the vaccines. he wants everything.

i think it's great. i think it's great. >> that was thursday. wednesday night, a trump transition team co-chair appeared to endorse kennedy's anti-vaccination vaccine theories. in an appearance with kaitlan collins vaccines are safe, rfk. i mean, why do you think vaccines are safe? there's no product liability anymore. they're not proven. >> kids get them and they're fine. >> why do you think they're fine? >> but because they're proven scientifically to be about this. >> there was 1 in 10,000 people have autism. we all know so many more people with autism than had it when we were young. oh come on. i mean, his point is really interesting. so here's what he said. >> cause autism. okay now we should point out that after backlash to those comments, that guy howard lutnick issued a statement, quote, to be clear, my wife and i trust our doctors and following their advice, have vaccinated our children and ourselves however, not everybody trusts such advice or the fda. we would be doing everyone a disservice if the government respected bobby kennedy's request to make full

data available. kennedy's health care portfolio in a trump administration, however, could expand past vaccines. this was trump last night in another battleground state nevada robert f kennedy jr.. we have health and women's health and all of the different reasons because we're not really a wealthy or a wealthy country. >> we're not. >> this afternoon, this afternoon, vice president harris responded while in wisconsin person who would be in charge of health care for the american people is someone who has routinely promoted junk science and crazy conspiracy theories who once expressed support for a national abortion ban and who is the exact last person in america who should be setting health care policy for america's families and children. >> back with us, maggie haberman, david urban and

ashley etienne. maggie, the fact that rfk jr. is out on the campaign trail with trump obviously suggests trump thinks he can be helpful in these final days. is there any concern you've heard inside the campaign about the actual prospect of kennedy being a, you know, a turnoff to swing voters or particularly women? >> no, i in general, most people in the campaign are actually pretty happy about him. there are a few people who i think have questioned using him, so heavily, but most of them think that the endorsement from rfk of trump was a big moment for the campaign. and it and it added to momentum at a crucial time also. rfk jr. is on the ballot still in wisconsin and michigan. so even though he's not a candidate anymore, i think that part of what trump is doing is just trying to appeal to those voters. but do i think that rfk jr. is likely to play some kind of a health role in the administration? i do. he has had this conversation with trump before in in late 2016 or early 2017, during the transition when trump was elected then trump was very

skeptical of childhood vaccines during his own presidential race in 2016. so there is a like mindedness. and also when trump says things like i'm going to let him go nuts most federal agencies trump didn't have that much interest in. he cared about the defense department, the justice department and the intelligence community. but beyond that, he wasn't especially focused on it. it was basically that he just wanted people to go out and succeed. and so i do think that you would see rfk jr.. playing some significant role. what exactly that looks like? i don't know, but i think it's real. >> i think we lost david irvin. but i'll go to ashley. we'll try to get david back. ashley so we played harris's comments about rfk jr.. being quote the exact last person in america who should be setting health care policy. trump was asked about that comment, said it was sour grapes over a member of the kennedy family supporting him. um, do you think this actually would appeal to harris supporters? i mean, is this something that would motivate people to vote yeah. no, i don't think this will be a

major factor, but really, what it reinforces is this, this you know, of who donald trump is, is to maggie's point. i mean robert f. kennedy just reinforces what we already know about donald trump. i mean, you know trump would would stack his cabinet. i mean, this gets back to the choice with stack. his cabinet with people who are not living in reality, who are conspiracy theorists who are anti-vax anti-science anti lgbtq anti-semites. i mean, a whole host of of questionable people in his in his administration, primarily worst instincts and, and that's the scary part. and i mean to vice president harris's point america deserves better than this america deserves better than someone believe in vaccines. and, you know, but again what do we expect from donald trump? this is someone who misled the public in the middle of a deadly pandemic. and half a

million people died so it's what we've come to expect but to harris's point, america deserves better. >> david, i'm glad you're back i didn't want to have any conspiracy theories that we had suddenly blipped you off the screen so there's i mean, what do you think of the rfk? i mean, influence is it do you think it's a turn off to some of, like, nikki haley? you know voters who might support him yeah. >> listen, anderson i think that there's a wide swath of americans have a great distrust of our government, especially post-pandemic because of all the things they were told they had a healthy skepticism going into the pandemic and then they i feel that they, you know they feel that they were their fears were cast aside and they couldn't do search terms. the government censored them. listen, i think bobby kennedy is smartest when he's talking about actual health. you know, one in 1 in 3 kids today, 1 in 3 teenagers is pre-diabetic. in america it's incredible. only ten years ago, that number was

in half. we've had a huge gain in kids being pre-diabetic. kids are getting fat. it affects military recruiting. it's incredible. our military budgets 800 billion. we spend diabetes bobby kennedy wants to talk about that. why are kids obese today? what are we eating? what are we feeding our kids? why are americans so unhealthy? i think if he talks about that and focuses on that, do you think do you see him as head of hhs? i mean, what do you see? >> no, no, no no, listen, i mean, if trump is saying he can do whatever he wants, trump is saying he can do whatever he wants. >> no, he's not listen howard lutnick is compiling a long list of very capable people. >> so what do you think he does? so very smart. if he doesn't have a he'll be an advisor. he'll have. he'll he'll have some role in whether it's you know, make america healthy czar. i don't know whether there's plenty of czars given out in every presidency. so i'd like to see him focus on those types of things, making americans

healthy, eat healthier, getting pesticides out of our foods, making sure kids stay healthy. listen, diabetes is rampant amongst the african-american community. they suffer disproportionately. so i'd like to see it addressed, you know, and rectified. >> maggie. i mean, is is that what the role is, that he's going to be like a cheerleader or something like a like a what is have you heard anything it would be something more like that than he's not. >> i don't expect that he's going to be the hhs secretary for a variety of reasons, one of which is that i think there is some concern that he would go through a difficult confirmation fight um, but i do think that if he comes into the administration, he will be in some kind of an oversight czar, whatever title you want to give it. um, overseeing a real possibility. >> all right thanks, everybody. appreciate it. coming up next, florida governor ron desantis, facing criticism, accused of using the abortion amendment on the ballot next tuesday. details on that ahead

support blood pressure and improve heart health. rush to walmart and find total beats. >> the source with kaitlan collins next states have measures on the ballot to restrict or expand abortion rights including florida, and comes after the supreme court overturned roe v. >> wade two years ago, handing the issue, of course, back to the states in may, a new law took effect in florida, banning access to abortion past six weeks of pregnancy. the law was pushed by the republican governor, ron desantis amendment four, now on the ballot proposes expanding abortion access to viability, which is about 23 or 24 weeks,

or to protect the life of the mother. now, some of the opposition is coming directly from the governor who's accused of using taxpayer money to actually fight it. randi kaye has more amendment four, this is an intentional deception on the public. florida governor ron desantis amping up his rhetoric against florida's abortion amendment, known as amendment four. >> when you're dealing with constitutional amendments, your default should always be no amendment four, if approved, would do away with florida's current six week abortion ban signed into law by desantis, and enshrine the right to an abortion before viability in the state constitution. it's incredibly unfortunate in the state of florida to see taxpayer resources wasted on a political campaign. >> desantis has brought the full force of his office and state agencies to defeat amendment four, and the state appears to be spending millions in taxpayer dollars to do so. >> this is the government that is supposed to be administering these elections, not putting its thumb on the scale. >> independent journalist jason garcia has been working to

connect the dots on the state spending. >> it appears that the desantis administration is spending more than $19 million of taxpayer money much of that spending appears to be specifically related to amendment four, but what ultimately they are funding is a massive television advertising campaign based on the timing and subject matter of the purchase orders. in a state database, there is every indication that taxpayer dollars were used. but desantis office has refused to answer reporters specific questions, including ours, about the money spent last month floridians protecting freedom, the organization running the yes on four campaign, filed a lawsuit against the state accusing florida's agency for health care administration of launching a state run taxpayer funded website proclaiming that proponents of amendment four are telling lies. the group also accuses the state of using taxpayer money to buy tv advertisements like this one, and florida law puts women's health and safety first. >> the state has also spent money sending cease and desist

letters to tv stations that ran commercials encouraging floridians to vote yes on amendment four, the doctors knew if i did not end my pregnancy, i would lose my baby. i would lose my life. >> the letters were signed by the general counsel for the department of health. according to this signed affidavit, he resigned after he was pressured to send more letters suggesting the stations could face charges. letters he said, were written by lawyers working for desantis. a judge has since blocked florida's health department from threatening tv stations. any further over the ads. we certainly shouldn't be using state resources to threaten tv stations from airing the stories of women who need to access abortion randi kaye joins us now from florida. >> any word from desantis office tonight entirely surprising. >> this is usually how it goes with the desantis administration. but we did send them anderson, very specific questions about the money being spent to fight amendment four

here in florida. now, his spokesman did send a statement to politico, and i can share part of that with you. it says state agencies have the authority and dedicated funding, as he put it to educate the public on important issues, especially those that impact the health and safety of women and children. so he doesn't address the taxpayer money there, but he does say there's dedicated funding. it's also worth noting anderson, that this amendment needs 60%, at least 60% support to to have it pass and to replace the near-total abortion ban that's on the books here in the state of florida now. >> all right. one more thing to watch for on election night. randi kaye, thank you. a quick programing note. we're back on sunday with a special pre-election edition of 360. that will be the same time. eight eastern, right here on cnn. i straight from the source. >> tonight we are just four days away from the election, and in the final moments of this race, donald trump is spending
