i honestly try to busy and working 32 hours a week to be better for the 5 minutes and 40. but of course we shouldn't be no need be the living scientists just had subscribed. whatever you listen to about costs the, this is data been use large from berlin, pamela harris, and douglas drawn poles. doing ronnie's on the final day of the campaigns to become president of the united states. some address addresses, housing. joseph also is off to the stall started concert at the philadelphia museum of odd promising to be a president for donald trump holes as find a valley in grand rapids michigan. setting the supporters, he will take america to coach new heights of glory. but how could the us election effect germany? we also call the fissions and although the germans, what they think and today is off the devastating floods keen hundreds and spans

momentarily. john heavy rain tumbles the neighboring region of catalonia closing airports and highways. the british front of you welcome the candidates for the us presidency, had been making their final pictures of the campaign in key swing states, vice president of the hottest, the democratic candidate has her last probably in pennsylvania. tens of thousands of photos gathered outside the philadelphia museum of odd, but a star studded concert featuring maybe guy and katie perry, among others. republican candidate, former president, donald trump elder ronnie in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, before heading to grand rapids in michigan. another about the ground state where he gave his final address to supporters to where it's suppose about to open. it's now

down to us voters to choose the political direction of the country for the next 4 years. we know it is time for a new generation of leadership in america. vice president campbell and here is making her last speech to voters in philadelphia in the crucial swing state of pennsylvania. the stars including oprah winfrey and lady gaga, came out to support the democratic nominee, the harris underscoring the state of the selection. so america comes down to this one more day just one more day in the most consequential election of our lifetime.

and the momentum is on our side. the former us president and republican dominique donald trump, delivering his closing speech in michigan. another battle ground stays what he wrote tomorrow we can fix every single problem. our country faces the beautiful that is new. i joined on stage by his children. trump told his supporters, the election is in their hands. yes, we are old enough to deal with what we have at the stroke of midnight election day began with voting in a tiny township in new hampshire. the result, 3 votes for harris and 3 for trump poles suggest

a knife edge raced with the rivals, neck, and neck inside the ground state. the tide contest could mean america will face a longer wait for the final results and spoke to us. but it took a long list, new stroke uh about how, how does and trump 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 and the wreck that she sees that it cost the 1st truck administration, but decidedly different from fighting. and in general, any other candidates, 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 folks 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. as i would say, that's the designing feature of the entire by made ministration. 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 the pandemic jobs are up, inflation 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 scientist 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 minorities 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'm here shift 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 people have already cost that 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 mainland 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 ground game. with that same 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, a sign that we give the campaign pause except 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. and there's a lot of trying to write the tea leaves right now about what this early building means that pulls the also indicated that this is a very close race. how could the turn out that 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'll be about democrats maintaining that smaller version that they've already established in the early voting and trunk team overtaking it. so we don't be about, you know, in, 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 me and leave it there for the moment, but thanks so much for your time today. put them on this list. okay. speak to us

from baltimore. thanks so much and have some other the better funds with regard to the us elections. businesses in washington dc appear to be bracing for possible election under this government officers and shops. the white house have boarded up the windows and installed additional dedicates elsewhere across the country. security. i think it has been stepped up around both accounting centers. of course, instead of dense here has zoomed in favor of you don't. must $1000000.00 giveaways wage and cottage voter registration. in the swing states, a judge rejected to prosecute his attempt to shut down the beat and as they need not to risk him, most cars used as well as to campaign in support of donald trump. and as us voters had to the fullest germany is looking with the trepidation at who would be the next us president building say is if in foster productive relations with whoever is elected, but a 2nd, trump 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 to 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. blue. he and german chancellor shows see eye to eye on support for ukraine and nato. the us is germany's biggest trading partner, and 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 ease. i will probably play

a more important role and, but i'm pretty sure that the transatlantic relationship to the partnerships will remain for it's a far cry from the days when donald trump repeatedly locked horns with former german chancellor on going america's back when he was president, trump regularly criticized germany's defense spending and bash, michael's immigration policy for his presidency can be considered a low point in the relationship between washington amberlynn. 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 is ruling parties, feel berlin is more prepared this time for one having taken on more responsibility

for its own defense. the conservative opposition disagrees on side. does 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 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 le 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 sand on more solid ground. and a political correspondent, matthew moore told me how much a change of power in the white house could impact germany. mazda is a huge deal, but that's because of germany's fortunes are intertwined with no other country,

quite like the with the us. and that's because, since the 2nd world war, germany has relied on the us security guarantees that made the germans did enjoy decades of economic prosperity without having to invest massively in defense. now renew that president. trump always object to, to that. and in fact, this week he said that jam anyways, quote, it's in our lunch so and so he basically represents kind of the on stability. and i kind of critical all i, if you like with as high risk, represents the status quoted so that you'd be a much more comfortable partner for the germans. look, the u. s. is germany's largest trading partner, which for an export nation like germany is really vital. it means what happens in the us where 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 jeremy's treat deficit with the us meant the, you know, that it was expand exporting more to the us than it was. then it was purchasing

method that was somehow a slight on the us. and that, that germans were taking advantage of 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 go there can yeah, don't know. as close as that. we've already experienced donald trump as president and have been following his complaints continuously. so we can only say, go ahead and ask ourselves with somewhere like that which ever get elected. so we, oh, very much hope the coming the house will get the job done. let's see how does some of the house so and nothing really help could of stuff hold on top. i'm not afraid of crew coming back. you probably act very differently from how he seems and what he says, no sir, this guy had a sketch claw 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 one move. please a cover harris. so i think of in, i think kind of should, when trump is simply unbeatable with his tough sounding slogans, his racism, and his positive view of putting putting pointers, coyote, 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. as 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 in 1st thing we do among the c, d, u, the christian democrats, that's the kind of a 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 he, when the election in the us and then spawn who's 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 a cd, 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 pots in germany, that once a trump, when is the fall right? old tentative for gemini, vc and from an ideological all i, someone who doesn't, who doesn't really mind, doesn't watch his words. someone who places the nation state front and center, someone who's on the emigration. 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. that is out of the us election, make a difference to how things done. i'll change 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 governments, the greens and the business, friendly, free democrats that 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 a hate this week with the finance minister from the full business as the piece, a really meeting demands that his partners can't agree to. and it see here some as a pretext for him to pull the plug from from of the coalition altogether. and basically take a fresh collections if you like, but there is a, there's a school of thought here in germany the thinks that basically have come 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, he says this is with it. it's a decision which not just the us, but for germany to leave it there for the moment. matthew mall from i believe in

studio through some of the other stories making news around the world. walk us at usa, across manufactured a bullying have agreed to end. the 7 weeks strike, union members accepted a 38 percent pay rise, offer striking no of them. they have demanded during has $1.00 to pay $2.00 weeks to restart production, and that it's to funding slash 10 percent of the flash sauce. a police officer and the state of ohio has been found guilty of murder for the shooting death of andre healey, who was on um, former officer, adam co coy shots too. who was black white. he was leaving his neighbors. got raj in 2020 coy claimed. he mistook his car keys for a gun, a president, bull latino who has ordered all charges dropped against teenagers, were arrested against the government. processed in august. so as he protested, is under the age of 18, but accused of treason by prosecutors of footage of them enforced during the arraignment on friday,

sparked public outrage. germany is promising more help to you, pray and mazda us connections and the possibility of another trump presidency. raise questions over washington's ongoing support. german foreign minister and in a bad bulk paid a visit to keith, where she was briefed on the department of german n t across the tanks. germany is the top contribute to me to create the ukraine off to the us. but both the us connections and political tablets and been in so many ukraine bodied that support might be reliable, bare bulk attempted to alleviate some of those fios, expressing germany's unwavering support. as the country faces, it's todd winter full with russia twice. we, i know how frightening the debates in germany might sound to your ears when, when the aggressor and you, the victims, are confused sometimes deliberately,

some tire of west indian months when some of my compact periods. so don't worry about german support for peace and freedom, and ukraine right now is in so i say once again, clearly hearing keys on the eve of the election in the united states for we as the german government, as the largest country in europe, squared aware of our responsibility owns the fund for to him and the companies in k then has more than what came out. i mean, a bad box visit there. she came with fresh money, 200000000 euros to help you can get through winton protected energy and structure, which russia is constantly trying to take down butts. they'll see well as question marks not least the us election, but also the stability of 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 paste and to the left punch in germany. but also within just a schultz is 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 of 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 constant during the tax. people who haven't had a decent, not 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 me economy. that reporting from keep mean by ukraine has also a one that 11000 not put in troops have reached russia as coast border region under packed with moscow president, one of the means the landscape has depressed them allies to respond to the deployment in the field for permission to use long range weapons. deep inside russia. ukraine and troops lost and encouraged on into the cold, screeching in august. you know faint attempt to draw a russian troops away from eastern ukraine to spain next way. another 2500 soldiers have arrived in floods. hate valencia to reinforce efforts to locate bodies and clear debris. don't know around 17000 members of the ministry, police and fire service in the region. in the race against the clock,

civil and military emergency workers are searching shopping centers, get officers and underground ca, fox, for most lot victims. they also scan them outs where collins may have deposited, mold bodies, 217. people are known time died in the floods, but that somebody's expected to rise with many people staying on the comfortable and early on or off. the double guard responded junction. it shows who was justin valencia. why so many people were killed in the floods, despite advance warnings from full cost as 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 of the crisis management here in spend has been catastrophic. that is really no other way to describe goods. 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 only arrived in the region. at least a big part of these soldiers only arrived in the region 5 days after the floods hit . so catastrophic crisis management and valencia and the area around it. so who are spanish, people are holding responsible to these catastrophic pressure spanish funds. well, there'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 about the

usual blame game. the political blame game has already started to yet and spend the conservative regional government says that the central government and metrics for social central is a central government. and 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 empowered the regional government and to the rescue efforts which have been sent for life. 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 there is no one who is willing to take over political responsibility for this disaster. here you are in the valencia, we just seen the most devastation describe to us this speech in, for someone who isn't familiar when he is at a remote region by the help arrives. 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 after 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 a to, to the effected areas. we had to walk in 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 the difficult spot. i'm john philip charles speaking to me from sylvia. thanks so much i to and with that you are up to date, but stay with us because coming up off of the break science program to model today
