warnings for both candidates, especially when states like michigan. so how we would affect the outcome national election. us presidential election, 2024 watts, the whole coverage on the top of the it says do the news this thursday, the news life from berlin coming to harris and donald trump hold doing riley is on the final day of the campaigns to become president of the united states government, how does have dressed as thousands of supporters of the stuff started concert at the philadelphia museum of are promising to be a president for all trump is holding his final riley in grand rapids, michigan, telling his supporters people to take america to uphold new heights of glory plus, how could the us election effect germany we also all additions in order the germans

both facing and the days off the devastating floods killed hundreds in spain, valencia, agent, heavy rain, almost the neighboring region of cap alone. yeah. closing airports and highways, the are british trying to do welcome the candidates for the us presidency, had been making the final pictures of the campaign in the key swing states, i suppose. and tell me about her as the democratic candidate tells her last rally in pennsylvania, tens of thousands of supporters gathered outside the philadelphia museum of all sort of stuff. the concert featuring maybe ga, ga, and katie perry, among others. republican candidate, former president donald trump, held the valley in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. so heading to grand rapids in the michigan,

another battleground states where he is. right. so giving his final address just a 4th has been full is about to open its dial down to us both as to choose the political direction of the country. for the next 4 years, the drive to get voters to the polls did not let up until the final moment. vice president, pamela harris, spied a book route in pennsylvania as election day neared. split. what you all are signing up to do today what you've been doing. like, let's enjoy it. you know, and i know you do, i can feel the mood in here because it's the best of who we are as a democracy. put arrival. donald trump also mosse direction. either the competing riley in pennsylvania. you built this country? i have to tell you, built this guy. you're going to save this country too because,

you know, if we win then so that not me, if we win pennsylvania, we're, we're in the back in dc. how would university profess to host harris on election night, where she would wait for the results? means a lot because it's just super inspiring to us as students to see like what we can because because this is her alma mater and also to see that like she hasn't forgotten where she's come from. her being a black woman president would be monumental only for like power, but like for the country as well. i'm really looking for it to it's preparations unfolded in dc security wrapped up in florida near mara logo white chunk with a weird results on election night. just supporters were out on the streets mark and election eve. were you to support donald a john? so we're here. ready to go? caught him,

is terrible. right now we have an immigration crisis going on and me personally, i don't think we can afford to live another 4 years under the current administration, with the fine and our sticking down the outcome. no risk with the voters. and i spoke to us political analyst loose fuel cap about how come about hers is trying to appeal to voters throughout the entire campaign. her page has been in part a rebuttal to trump saying, what are your most famous taglines as we will not go back. reminding people of the dangers in the wreck that she sees that it cost the 1st drug administration, but decidedly different from vitamin and in general, any other candidate. her message has been one of joy. you heard that just an eclipse. let's enjoy this. and i think she tapped into the details of the country was really in general this summer with a concert in the olympics. and now her campaign of

a need to feel joyful at that civic participation again, what is the country and then certainly feeling joyful. i mean, some of the issues that keep coming up the cost of living and immigration, for instance. absolutely, and i think that's what you hear in the trump campaign. he's really driving home how horrible everything is, keeps talking about how things are ruined, how cities are, are bad, how you can't afford to live. and that's a very real feeling in america as well. we have come out as a pan demik with inflation. that's finally getting under control, but salts are still feeling it at the, at the grocery store. and so it is very much a, into this as to the harris campaign of things are really bad and people are struggling. and i think it leaves the american people feeling both ways and a lot of anxiety is there's, if there's a clash of policy versus a perception and perception, ultimately be slightly hot with no i would say

that's the designing feature of the entire vitamin administration. is that he has had a very effective and good presidency for americans. bottom line is one of the only countries that avoid a recession after they've had demick jobs are up, insulation is down, and yet people just don't feel it. and whether that's because it always takes a little while for the policy that the data scientists are seeing to feel it in our pocket. or if it's this rhetoric that we see online about how divided we are and how americans have never felt more and see or in anger in their political system, that doesn't sound like very good news for combat harris. i think i think she's also tapping it to of course there's anger. i think there's a lot of women that are also feeling like, you know, we can't risk our lives with another trump presidency. there's

a lot of anger in my tori tvs about some of the language that trump is used. i think on the whole, it's not good for america, but i do think i hear ship to joy will do her well on election day because people want to vote for something not just against something. speaking of holding more than $18000000.00 people have already cost the balance. there's, there's a early voting give us any clues as to what we can expect on election dates a yes or no. it's hard to compare to the last election because it was the cove, it seems to be the collection. and so early learning and balanced learning was kind of in a way to do it. that said, based on historical trans, early building tends to favor democrats because they have a round game with that. so right now, just democrats, republicans, democrats, reading and swing states by a smaller margin than they did in 2020. and so that is a, a sign that we give the campaign pause accept exit,

polling from these have said that harris is leading. so we can tie, spend a lot of ways and say, maybe people are voting straight party in this early mailing voting. there's a lot of trying to read the tea leaves right now about what this early building means. that pulls are also indicated that this is a very close race. how could the turn out by turns on voting to still affect the final result? i think that's it. to quote, trump, the whole ball of wax is going to be can you get every last supporter that is on your side to the doors and to the polls because it will be all about turn out. and it will be about democrats maintaining that smaller margin that they've already established in the early voting and trunk team overtaking it. so we don't be about, you know, and in pennsylvania, in 2020, it came down 280000 votes. in 2016, it came down 240000 votes, and that is an incredibly small margin that we can expect again, tomorrow. be in the leave at the moment,

but thanks so much for your time today. i put them on this list. okay. speaking to us from baltimore, thanks so much i as and as the us, both those have to the polls. germany is looking with the trepidation at who would be the next us president. elaine say's it been foster productive of nations with whoever is elected by the 2nd comp presidency. good. spell some trouble for germany . the kingship between germany and the u. s. is thriving. what may have been jo biden's last 4 in troop as president was in fact, to berlin. here he was awarded germany's highest honor, the grand cross of the order of merit though for germany, the french save with the united states has been, is now and will always be ex, essentially important biden's lifelong commitment to the trans atlantic relationship and focus on foreign policy helped us determine friendship bloom,

key in german chancellor shows see eye to eye on support for ukraine and nato. the us is germany's biggest trading partner in berlin. stance on china has increasingly aligns with washington. the expectation is that with comma la harris as president, the report would continue on the same truck considering also come out of harris, a background to the ego. we'll probably play a more important role and, but i'm pretty sure that the trans atlantic relationship and the partnerships will remain full. it's a far cry from the days when donald trump repeatedly locked horns with former german chancellor on going to america's back. when he was president trump or regularly criticize germany's defense spending and bash, michael's immigration policy for his presidency can be considered a low point in the relationship between washington member lynn. i was fearful,

not only because of germany, but uh, i would say the style, the government in style of uh, president trump. but particularly towards germany because of uh, issues like trade with isolation as trumps. threatening to cut support for ukraine and slapped tear of some all imported goods. it's hard to imagine a harmonious relationship. if he gets back into the white house, germany's ruling parties fuel berlin is more prepared this time for one having taken on more responsibility for its own defense. the conservative opposition disagrees on side done us the frontier. the german government has to be blamed for at least for the past 4 years for not doing enough to secure a of a big a european sovereignty on security and defense of topics. the german government says it will stay friends with us, regardless of who ends up in the white house. polls show that 2 thirds of germans

would prefer a comma, la harris, as us president. and then political berlin, there appears to be a consensus that with the presidents, comma, la harris, but you westerman friendship for sans on more solid ground. right, let's get some more perspective on this with political correspondence, matthew, more joining us for my belief in the studio. good morning, matthew, claire slobs towards pamela harris in germany, and part of it of dismay about donald trump doesn't really make such a difference. who occupies the white house, as mazda is a huge deal branch because of germany's fortune jordan. so twain with no other country quite like the with the us. and that's because since the 2nd world war gemini, has relied on the us security guarantees that made the germans could enjoy decades of economic prosperity without having to invest massively in defense. now renew that president. trump always objected to that. and in fact,

this week he said that germany was quote, it's in our lunch. and so he basically represents kind of the on stability of a kind of critical ally if you like, with as high risk, represents the status quo. and so to be a much more comfortable partner for the germans under the u. s. as germany's the largest trading partner, which for an export nation like germany is really vital. it means what happens in the us with the effects germany. and we know the under come. that was that we had a little about the us german trade deficit. donald trump is a protectionist, he felt that wrongly really that jimmy's treat deficit with the us meant the, you know, that it was expand exporting more to the us than it was than it was purchasing method that was somehow a slight on the us. and that, that germans were taking advantage of the us. we never heard anything about the bite and, and so for jam and she who really craves stability. this is a choice and a sense between the unpredictability of a president trump, or kind of steady as you go with president harrison. so we can hear what some of the germans on the street to make of all in spite. i wouldn't be grudge it to

either of them, but for me it would be trump. i'd say he didn't want all that can. yeah, don't know. as close as that, we've already experienced donald trump as president and have been following his companions continuously. so we can only say, go ahead and ask ourselves with somewhere like that which ever get elected. so we will very much hope to come to the house. we'll get the job done. let's see, it does come out of the house and nothing really help could of stuff hold on top. i'm not afraid of trump coming back. you probably act very differently from how he seems and what he says, no, sir, this guy have us guns cut off. would be higher so, so it would be a positive sign for the whole world, i would say. and trump is no good at all. he's divisive and assigned to him. impossible would be spent in a new place, a cover harris. so i to give in, i think kind of should, when trump is simply unbeatable with his tough finding slogans, his racism and his positive view of putting, putting pointless kite or net stick. there's that,

there's some interesting views there. but all they reflected across the political spectrum in germany as well, particularly in the opposition. i mean, broadly those, those views are reflected. i mean, you speak to most politicians, you accept from the extreme politicians in germany, and i would say all of them are crossing that same goes for harris. when interestingly, the among the c d u, the christian democrats, that's the kind of the sense, the right party here in germany. the, you know, they know that if they come into power, they have to, to find a way to work with a president. trump should it should, should you, when the election in the us and then spawns is a leading site given the cd. you was out there for public and convention out there that she and he told dw, you know, he said cool. i don't like the style of trump, but we have to find common interest. and that led to lots of consternation here in germany because people felt that he was somehow signed and tried to kind of make excuses for trump. so those, you've got to see the you, they're trying to figure out how they can work with a, with it's

a present from the future. but really, the only parts in germany that wants to trump, when is the far right alternative for germany. they see in from an ideological allies, someone who doesn't, who doesn't really mind, doesn't watch his words. someone who places the nation state front incense or someone who's on to immigration, someone who's pull rush or soft on russia. someone who really reflects the less intervention is politics. the german government itself, in fact, facing internal tensions and divisions, particularly when it comes to economic policy. good. the result of the us election make a difference to how things done out in the name. so we haven't, we currently have a kind of a cool lesson crisis here in germany. there's a 3 way government. yes. the social democrats, coupled with the greens and the business friendly, free democrats, the, the sd pay, they were in broiled, and a very better dispute about how to pass a budget by the end of this, the, the end of this month, actually, for next year. i'm not come to ahead this week with the finance minister from the

full basement as the piece a really meeting demands that his partners can't agree to on it. see here some as a pretext for him to pull the plug from some of the coalition altogether and basically take a fresh selections if you like. but there is a, there's a skills for you in germany. the thinks that basically have trouble with the when the us selection that, that makes that government collab she unlikely are because of the uncertainty that, that would trigger here in europe. so there's a lot of people watching what happens in the u. s. and saying, you know, as one senior politician here says, this is really a, it's a decision which not just for the us, but for germany to leave it there for the moment. matthew mall from a berlin studio. thanks very much for that to do some of the other stories making news. now what goes out to us? aircraft manufactured a boeing have a b 2 and the 7 weeks strike. union members accepted a 38 percent pay rise, offer slightly low, then they have demanded during has 1 may take weeks to restart production. and that

it's still planning to slash 10 percent of its workforce. these really ministry has came responsibility for an aspect on the building and the city and capital damascus . which people say is what the sides of my husband, law intelligence headquarters. the strike kills 2 people according to the british based city, an opposite victory for human rights. nigerian president latino bull has ordered all charges dropped against teenagers wherever rest of during antique government protest in august. so to protest is under the age of 18, but accused of trees and by prosecutors footage of them in force during that event on friday, sparked public outrage. germany is promising more help to ukraine as the us elections and the possibility of another trump presidency. raise questions or washington's ongoing support. german foreign minister and a bad bulk paid a visit to keith, where she was based on the deployment of german

n t a. across the times. germany is the top contribution of industry a to ukraine, off to the us. but both the us elections and political tablets and berlin have some in ukraine bodied that support might not be reliable. so bad bulk attempted to alleviate some of those fios, expressing germany's unwavering support. the country faces. it's as the country faces, it's todd winter full with russia, a device. i know how frightening the debates in germany might sound to your ears and singing. and when the aggressor and you, the victims, are confused sometimes deliberately, some tie. it was indeed months when some of my compact periods, so doubt about german support for peace and freedom and ukraine, right? no question is in a so. so i say once again, clearly here in key on the eve of the election in the united states for

we as the german government, as the largest country in europe square are aware of our responsibility. form one is the fund for to him. and those big companies and can even, has more on board came out of i'm in a bad box visit there. she came with fresh money, 200000000 euros to help you crank it through the winter and protected energy and structure which russia is constantly trying to take down butts. they'll see what looks question marks, not least the us election, but also the stability of her coalition. whether that coalition that she is part of will be in place when you present united states gets to what house will it have fully bought by then. and then obviously, you know, there's debate she took so it's about off not just among the kind of left and right talk you that will touch for germany in the, the fucking taste and to the left punch in germany. but also within child social says s p d,

where there's lots of increasingly loud voices questioning whether you crank and continue as it is. and so it felt like lots of what she was saying was actually directed back to berlin, basically telling people to get on with helping ukraine as has been promised, even said in results to a question that it's time for people in building to get on with that jobs and to pull themselves together. that was pretty uh, kind of strong language of the cost of that from higher end results. questions. and there was a real sense that to them, you know, she was really hoping that by being here reminding people back in germany about the price, the things paying in terms of wants to join the tax people who haven't had a decent night's sleep in months. if not years and the threat of you know, really prolonged blackouts if these attacks on the interest in which in you that maybe she could, you bang heads together and get actually people in germany to realize. but it could soon be the case that germany will have to bear the brunt of supporting ukraine if, if the united states pulls out of that help. the blues, nick connelly, the reporting from my keys to spain next. but another $2500.00 soldiers have

arrived in the flathead valencia region to reinforce efforts to locate bodies and clear debris. but i know around $17000.00 members of the military, police, and fire service in the region and their base against the clock civil. i'm going to be emergency was uh, searching shopping centers got officers and underground ca, fox, for most of the victims. they also scanned or human mouths, where cutoffs may have deposited more bodies. 217 people are known to have died in the floods, but that number is expected to rise with many people's too uncomfortable. that's your point of view. the respondent junction of shoulds who is justin floods it valencia enjoys be now from said via young. these floods were full cost when before they happened. why then was so many lives last to wait for it. first of all, because it has probably been the worst flooding in europe in the past 5 decades.

but also because the crisis management here in spain has been catastrophic. that is really no other way to describe it, to the regional government only send out in regards to the people oft uh many thousands had already been stripped and that cars are outside on the streets. and since then, the crisis management has been disastrous as well. and the specialized soldiers that are trained for these disasters that only arise in the region, at least a big part of these soldiers only arrived in the region 5 days after the floods hit . so a catastrophic crisis management in valencia and the area around it. so who are spanish, people are holding responsible to these catastrophic practice punishment. well, that's an incredible amount of and got to watch the political leads in general,

the spanish and the constitution is actually quite clear. it says that it's the regional government's responsibility when it comes to civil protection and emergency response. so 1st of all, it's the original government in valencia. that is to be held accountable, but the user will blame game. the political blame game has already started to yet. and spend the conservative regional government says that the central government and metrics the social central is a central government in madrid, has not provided requested assistance in time. and what is true is that the central government could have declared a national and nationwide state of emergency. this would have basically this and power, the regional government and the rest 2 efforts which have been sent realize, but of course, this is a huge step to take, especially in the 1st hours of the disaster. so in the end, people

a frustrated people are angry and that is no one who is willing to take over political responsibility for this disaster. you are in the valencia, which has seen the most devastation describe to us this speech in, for someone who isn't familiar. when is it a remote region? why did that help arrive so late? that it is not a remote region at all. some of the worst effected areas are actually suburbs of valencia. and valencia is one of the biggest and most developed cities in spain. when i arrived there one day of the flat city, i arrived at the and that's a international airport. i could just take a normal text, the a 10 minute text riots to, to the effected areas. we had to walk in out about 1520 minutes because the streets and of the infrastructure was destroyed. but this gives you an idea how century located it is. and actually how low it is. you can reach this region.

we leave with the, with the moment, but thanks so much for that update either because it's going to jump into patrol speak to me from sylvia. thanks so much. and before we go, scientists of testing of material, they say good some day be used to build houses on mars. and you may have heard of it. it's called what the 1st of a wooden satellite has been lost into space from florida. it was developed by a team of japanese research as they say, what is more beautiful in space because there is no water or oxygen to rot on ignited small satellite has been out of for no fee, kind of maple tree native to japan. it was selected after 10 months of test, some of the international space station. you can just the way they're applied to port and with that you are up to date,

but stay with the dollar because coming up next off of the break, i looked at why germany sells millions of loose districts abroad and why animal welfare activists are concerned. i'm british manager in berlin. thanks so much for watching me back again in about 15 minutes from now and see you then by the

reading in germany, the killing of male chicks is prohibited by law. but we are the roosters now. animal rights activists following the trail. they are dumped in poland or end up in gardening and chicken markets for cheap need. is the good law causing more problems abroad? next, on d, w to africa. how do you get young people thinking about waste and

why did they have all the time? i should, we can just search for the day and change them out for the for 2 years, many a cartons in germany have been marked with labels that say, no mail checks, colt sounds good, right? before mail checks would be shredded, since they serve no purpose. an egg production, so called brother roosters of commercially bread hens cancel a x. their meat isn't popular with consumers either. i'm a new one once the rooster on, um 5, use it with this read line. that's just not possible to raise the brother cock, essentially, but they still germany's former agriculture minister really looking at legally band of chick calling village bytes and 50.
