2:01 am
>> i wish donald trump knew how to be a president. >> i did hope for the sake of our country that donald trump might show some interest in taking the job seriously. >> look at how bad he was, so any effective, so terrible, did such a bad job that i stand before you as president. jillian: donald from that assessment democrats attacking each other as kamala harris makes history as the first woman of color to accept the vice president will nomination. >> democrats rolling out star power on night 3 of the dnc with former president obama. nancy. hillary clinton analyst with warren. jillian: griff jenkins live in wilmington, delaware with their message and the president's response. >> reporter: history was made as kamala harris accepted the nomination talking about
2:02 am
personal history and the promise of america is what she wanted to beat it but when it came to rebuking donald trump the prosecutor in her was on full display. >> i know a predator when i see one. donald trump's failure of leadership has cost lives and livelihoods. right now we have a president who turns our tragedy into political weapons. joe will be a president who turns our challenges into purpose. >> harris's speech came after former president barack obama delivered a blistering critique of donald trump naming him by name. >> i did hope for the sake of our country that donald trump might show some interest in taking the job seriously but he never did. no interest in treating the presidency is anything but one more reality show that he can use to get the attention he craves. donald trump hasn't grown into
2:03 am
the job because he can't. >> the theme was a more perfect union but it became clear and speech after speech that it was a referendum on donald trump. as we heard from nancy pelosi and former secretary of state hillary clinton. >> this can't be another could have would have should have election. joe and kamala can win by 3 million votes and still lose. take it from me. >> when we elect joe biden president his heart is full of love for america, with the country of trump's heartless disregard for america's goodness. >> at the white house donald trump punching back reacting to president obama's attacks. >> i listen to that and i see the horror he has left us, the stupidity of the transactions that he made and look at how bad
2:04 am
he was, how ineffective the president he was. >> later he went on a tweet storm against president obama and kamala harris and in pennsylvania outside biden's hometown of scranton later today but here tonight in wilmington the final night we will hear from the nominee, joe biden, joined by his family and we will hear from senator harris and senator booker, we will hear from california governor gavin newsom, atlanta's mayor, and pete. is making an appearance, what is fascinating to watch is what joe biden has to say about moving the country forward because we've heard so much of a critique and referendum of donald trump already. we will see what tonight brings, the theme is america's promise.
2:05 am
>> chris wallace sharing this observation about the dnc speech. >> a really curious. he talked for 15 minutes. i bet he didn't talk for joe biden for 5 of those 15 minutes, basically said he was my brother in the white house, our democracy is at stake, but as a full throated endorsement of joe biden, not saying he wasn't for him. it was a curious speech. >> party heavy hitters like barack obama, nancy pelosi and hillary clinton state their case for biden and harris. >> what were the night's biggest take aways was we have our heavy hitters, thanks for being here. what was your big take away. >> i'm so tired of the twitter politics. the biggest take away for me was
2:06 am
what is happening to america and this country. i was watching with someone who was also paralyzed by gun violence at a stray bullet like the young man. the second thing is small business, something that affected me. when the black woman said i feel alone, i feel the pain. one reason i come to do fox this early in the morning 45 minutes from my home is i'm here to support a small business. i'm looking at two gentleman on each side of me to get up in order to stay in business. when we look at things that are affecting americans i want to know what democrats and republicans are going to do about it. it is about congress, democrats, republicans caring that our children are out of school. i have school-age child and also a substitute teacher. last night all the things that were talked about including senator harris, i lost my mom to cancer on the campaign trail in 2016. those are all real issues, not talking points, their real issues america needs to fix and fix now. >> sounds like a lot of the moment from last night at home, we always appreciate you coming here in your analysis and your
2:07 am
opinions. we will go to you. same situation, appreciate you being here. what's your reaction and your response from last night? >> there are real issues absolutely and that is why donald trump is the right choice in this campaign whether it is elizabeth warren sitting in an empty school house, who's blocking kids from going back to school? the teachers union. whether it is barack obama spending all this time acting as if he was never in the white house for eight years, joe biden, acting as if last three years, up until march never happened. it is all just the virus, communist china, which was never mentioned. americans are tired of empty promises, tired of being lied to by politicians. that is why we voted for donald trump in 2016. we wanted to see real results. talk about reality tv, historic
2:08 am
presidencies, president obama was a historic president, he became a reality tv star. donald trump is a reality tv star who became a historic president because he followed through on his promises, delivered for the american people, already doing a second time. todd: back to the dnc. last night was kamala's night. president obama in his talking didn't talk about joe biden all that much, focus a lot on trump. these things put together combined with nights one and 2, do you expect to see biden more? >> not really. this is just weird. i don't know what expectation i had because it is a virtual convention. typically the candidate is last. i expect to see him tomorrow night. the question is what will he say? i want joe biden to be humble
2:09 am
enough to say i didn't do everything right, there are things i could improve on and things i could do better, we get a that he believes he's better than donald trump, his message has been drilled and for 3 days straight. the question is how can you do better, not good enough to say i'm better than trump. i want him to atone for the crime bill, apologize and not just apologize but also what is he going to do to move forward like harris did with her back on track program. that is important for voters to be humble enough to say i didn't do what i should have done and i will do better and not just i am better than donald trump. that will not work as we move into november. it is not good enough for every voter. >> what do you think that are in c can learn from this week as we look ahead to next week? >> one final note on the dnc, the swamp found a successor and it is not joe biden. it is kamala harris. something tells me barack obama is not going to spy and leak and launch a campaign to unseat her
2:10 am
like he did to donald trump. so many lied last night, they never gave donald trump a chance. hillary clinton used her dossier to spy on him, to leak against him, to overthrow our votes, say our votes didn't matter is what barack obama and hillary clinton did by launching the russia collusion hoax but what we can learn is a lesson from real americans, talk about the promise of america, that is what we had in our great country, what donald trump restored in his first term and was we are getting back to and we will showcase those amazing voices and stories and really excited to share those personal stories next week. >> thank you for joining us, we are sorry about your mother. thank you for being here. >> can't forget the store, the portland man finally assaulted by protesters speaking on what
2:11 am
led to the attack on camera. >> offices setting up smoke devices to disperse the crowd protesting outside the immigration building. ashley joins us as police declare a riot for a second straight night. >> a man his girlfriend speaking out after he was violently attacked. listen. >> i stepped out of the vehicle. didn't even think anyone was following me and before i even got my door open someone was yanking me out and i hit the ground. then i sat there for a while and they wouldn't let me get up. >> reporter: the new video showing he wasn't the only victim that night. early on you can see that woman get punished multiple times by several people, someone kicks her but 15 minutes, you see hamer getting kicked in the head, that man swung his leg into his head. the suspect, 25-year-old marquis love is no stranger of the law. he has been arrested 7 times in
2:12 am
the last eight years according to court documents the most recent being domestic assault and harassment. there was an anti-george lloyd post hours before he was assaulted, the post said george lloyd was a 46-year-old fell in high on fentanyl and got four televised funerals, what does canon in and get? he was riding his bike in his front yard. authorities declaring another right in the city. at the same time a man was arrested in connection to an attack with a baseball bat on a us marshal during violence in the city last month. in seattle the mayor has until monday to figure out if she will cut the police budget following pressure from city leaders and key owners joe and andrea were forced to shutdown their seattle store due to the ongoing violence. leaders pushing to defund police need to be policed. >> could resign immediately and
2:13 am
we can have an election for new leaders who care about seattle residents and small businesses who build a vibrant speed that they've done nothing but work to destroy. short of re-signing there is nothing they can do. >> reporter: seattle residents have launched two city councilmembers that voted to decline the police department. >> people from the portland skf are invited to a community 2000 miles away. >> good evening, portland. i have heard you have had a few issues. we won't tolerate any of that. if you are a family or business living in portland consider northeast pa. >> republican jim bogan making that which is donald trump heads to pennsylvania today next.

2:24 am
these words. i accept your nomination for vice president of the united states of america. thinking about the 25-year-old indian woman, 5 feet tall who gave birth to me at kaiser hospital. >> democrats especially liked it but most people seemed to like it. >> most people across the board liked that moment to primerica moment. democrats given a. independents to be. republicans given to see which of the high mark. what we want to see, people coming together at the american victory and american success stories and this is one of those moments we are focused on what she was about momentswearefocusedonwhatshewasa is something. todd: hillary have dominant words. >> if trump is reelected things will get worse.

2:31 am
with notable exceptions the latino community is an incredibly diverse community. if you have a problem figuring out between me and trump you ain't black. >> carry was doing some cleanup work for joe biden because these campaigns are highly scripted. that is what is happening. the campaign just started. in the next few weeks you will see decades of racist and bigoted remarks by joe biden the trump campaign will roll out but the trump campaign has other administrations they've not had in the past, real policy win study with historic economic gains. we have criminal justice reform something that couldn't get over the finish line. historic numbers of dollars
2:32 am
going to historically black colleges and we are seeing in the convention last night no one talking about the african-americans trapped in inner-city neighborhoods that have been destroyed, black business owners who worked all their life to build a business that was destroyed. no one talks to this was the only person caring about that is donald trump and he will go next week and put that forward and say they are calling me a racist. look what i've done that never happened before in my lifetime. with policy wins behind it. jillian: no one is talking about the violence going on. hearing that message, do you expect to hear anything on that
2:33 am
tonight? >> i don't know. not just african-americans in the inner-city but a lot of suburban moms. we talked about this before. the suburban mom vote is a critical vote in this election. many on the democrat side thought they had that in the bag because donald trump's personality may not sit well with a lot of suburban moms but they care about their kids and safety and you talk about the funding the police, we know what that looks like and images we've seen, it scares suburban moms. african-americans over 60%, democrats on wrong side of the issue. jillian: joe biden hasn't been there in 659 days. do you think joe biden is
2:34 am
repeating what hillary clinton did and the mistakes she made? >> absolutely. a real head scratcher and they are to be worried. if i lived in northwestern and central wisconsin, just took a trip around this part of the state and trump signs everywhere, very few biden signs. there is a enthusiasm gap in the victory runs through this district, democrats tried very hard to separate donald trump, from farmers and what i can see traveling across the state, people on the ground here have not been able to make the case to separate trump from those voters. biden not being here is a huge message, shows a sign of weakness in terms of donald trump, getting out there,
2:35 am
doesn't look like somebody leaving the country. >> there are ways to do things. we will keep an eye on it. thanks for joining us. >> after days of praising joe biden as a man of faith, dropping under god from the pledge of allegiance. >> i pledge allegiance to the united states of america, one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all. >> what do voters think of the dnc so far, "fox and friends" weekend cohost pete hegseth live outside the bacon beach grill in longbranch, new jersey. we missed diners so much. how often is it to be back? >> fantastic to be back, in longbranch nice and early. the sun is about to come up over the beach and if you look at the menu, you will appreciate this.
2:36 am
bacon beef special coming to me soon. tens of folks opening early, the economy, covid-19, everything in between. you don't see a lot of those parts of it online, not the version you see in the cable networks. even when i watched the beginning, are they going to say under god, they said one nation and they did say under god but in the muslim caucus meeting in the lgbt caucus meeting they excluded it. it is a reflection of a party at war with itself that has long since had a tenuous relationship with how they want to recognize the role of god in our republic. it didn't surprise me and it is very revealing and another aspect of the difference between what you see from the dnc and

2:56 am
policies carried out by the obama administration? jillian: joining us is steve cortez. good to see you. thanks for being here. >> good morning. jillian: what did you think about what they had to say last night on immigration. >> what the dems have continued to do the last through nights and last four years is conflate illegal migration. people who break into this country and trepsers and conflate them with legal migrants. they have nothing to do with each other. the fact that we will regularize or normalize trespassing into our country an affront to national security and an affront to people who do the right way. people like my own father who become legal immigrants to this country. it's a difficult, lengthy expensive process to become a legal immigrant to the united states. we in the republican party and trump campaign are not anti-immigrant. donald trump is also the son of an immigrant. people don't know that and his wife an immigrant. the phrase porous open borders.
2:57 am
