eric: that's it for now, but i'll be anchoring fox news coverage of the amy coney barrett confirmation hearings tomorrow morning. arthel: we'll be watching. we'll be back at four p.m. eastern. ♪ >> so we, i passed the highest test, the highest standards, and i'm in great shape. and i have to tell you, i e feel fantastically, i really feel good. alicia: president trump speaks out in an exclusive interview with maria bartiromo on "sunday morning futures." he says his health is great but questions joe biden's. >> if you look at joe, he was coughing yesterday horribly and grabbing his mask as he's coughing and speaking and grabbing his mask and coughing. and i don't know what that was all about. alicia: welcome to "america's
10:01 am
news headquarters," i'm alicia acuna in denver. leland: only a couple more elections until the -- weekends until the election, i'm leland vittert in washington. poll of voters find joe biden with a national lead over the president. mark meredith at the white house. >> reporter: the president says he feels very confident in the poll, he also says he's feeling great after that battle with covid just a few days ago. the president talked a little bit about his health earlier this morning with fox's maria bart mow row mow about -- bartiromo about what he's been facing. >> well, the white house doctors, as you know, are the best, and they said totally free of spreading. there's no spread. and there wasn't yesterday either. it was nobody even close to me yesterday, but even yesterday i knew i was free. i beat this crazy, horrible china virus. >> reporter: the president
10:02 am
held his first in-person event on the south lawn are saturday, hundreds of supporters showing up en masse to hear from the president. he spoke from the balcony, but today there are still questions about the president's health. for instance, the white house has not yet said if president trump has tested negative for covid-19. we could get an update on the president's condition specifically before he gets back out on the trail. we did get a statement from the president's physician late saturday. he says, quote: by currently recognized standards, he -- referring to the president -- is no longer considered a transmission risk to others. that doctor's note is helping to propel the president to get back out on the campaign trail. three rallies on the schedule, the first tomorrow outside of orlando in sanford, florida. pennsylvania tuesday, des moines, iowa, wednesday. all battleground states that'll decide what happens come early november. still waiting to see what the president's schedule will look like thursday evening, that was the night he was set to debate joe biden in miami. that debate has been canceled.
10:03 am
we'll be waiting the see whether or not the president's campaign schedules another rally or what they might do. but the president has come out swinging saying the commission has been biased and unfair towards biden. it'll be interesting if the president will take part in that final debate later on in october. never a dull moment around here, as you well know. leland? leland: yeah. the president says he wants to debate in person, so we'll see if the commission wants it to be virtual. alicia? alicia: joe biden again refusing to answer questions whether he would add seats to the supreme court if he was elected, calling president trump's push to fill the current vacancy unconstitutional. jacqui heinrich is live from wilmington the, delaware, with more. >> reporter: good afternoon, alicia. biden's making two stops in ohio tomorrow, really making a play there as after the latest new york times poll showed about 7%
10:04 am
of ohio volters are -- voters are still undecided. voters believe that president trump didn't take adequate recautions to -- precause of actions to protect himself from coronavirus. trump carried ohio by 8 points in 2016, and the real clear politics polling shows biden with a half point lead right now. until recently, biden's campaign didn't focus much on ohio but added stops in battlegrounds they have a better chance of winning like pennsylvania and virginia. later this week the highlight is back on ohio, president trump won pennsylvania, by the way, by less than a single point in 2016. biden there is participating in an abc town hall after the second debate which was also a town hall format was canceled, and the commission rejected biden's ask to change the last debate to a town hall format. one voters want answers on is
10:05 am
his stance on court packing. biden has outright refused to answer whether he would support adding more judges to the court. if judge barrett is confirmed, including yesterday at a stop in nevada. >> sir, don't the voter deserve to know -- >> no, they don't. i'm not going to play this game. he'd love me to talk about, and i've already said something on packing the court. he'd love that to be the discussion instead of what he's doing now. he's about to make his pick in the middle of an election, first time it's ever been done. >> reporter: now, biden maintains the focus should be on what president trump and the republicans are trying to do right now, what he may -- instead of, rather, what he may or may not do if he is elected. by the way, biden has expressed some opposition to court packing in the past. however, his running mate in the primaries said that she might be open to it. alicia? alicia: jacqui heinrich in wilmington, delaware.
10:06 am
thanks. leland? leland: bring in white house deputy communications director brian brian morgenstern. of turning your attention the policy issues, especially coronavirus stimulus. harry kudlow this morning -- larry kudlow said secretary mnuchin may go above $2.2 trillion in stimulus offers. that doesn't seem like a great negotiating tactic to say you may offer more than the other side really wants, right? >> well, leland, the president wants to go big on helping the american people and addressing issues that are facing them. that is small business relief, ppp, that is unemployment insurance, that is stimulus checks, that's helping out the airlines and hospitality industries that have been hit so hard by this pandemic. and, leland, the secretary and the chief of staff, mark meadows, put out a will letter to members of congress i saying, hey, why don't we start with pp. we have money available, but the deadline expired. we can just legislate right now
10:07 am
to get the ppp program up and running. that helps half of -- leland: there's no question that a lot of folks who need help typically in washington both sides can agree to spend more of the taxpayers' money, although that seems to be a harder compromise to reach these days. even mitch mcconnell, though, is skeptical of this saying the past couple of days even if an agreement is reached, the first-term priority in the senate is the supreme court. i don't need to tell you about the head count in the senate, but there's just not a lot of appetite among republican senators for $2.2 trillion plus. there wasn't a lot of appetite for $1.5 trillion. >> well, leland, the administration is supportive, again, confronting the issues facing america's businesses -- leland: right. the administration can be supportive of whatever it wants. if you don't get republican senators -- >> leland, the democrats are focused on packing the court, rioting in america's cities. they're focusing on all these crazy things, the 25th amendment. let's focus on solving problems. and if we can get agreement
10:08 am
between the secretary expect speaker, maybe we can start building a vote count. but the fact is we've within serious for -- been serious on pursuing legislation that would directly address issues facing the american people. the democrats have not been serious about it. leland: that's a different argument though in terms of being serious and in terms of agreement between the speaker and the treasury secretary. that leaves out the senate. has the president been working the phones on this yet? >> well, the president is i routinely talking to the leaders, routinely talking to members on the hill and saying, look, he wants to solve these problems. he wants stimulus checks, he wants to help the airline industry, the hospitality industry, he wants unemployment insurance, he wants to keep small businesses is and their employees connected. so he'll speak with anybody who's willing to meet. he's available to speak with any members on the hill. he wants to solve problems. our recovery is going really well -- leland: it's interesting. >> -- the housing industry, others, but we can do better.
10:09 am
we want to -- leland: you may have a little bit of support on that from andrew yang, the once-democratic presidential candidate. he tweeted out the following, we'll put it up here, saying, nancy pelosi, take this deal. put politics a aside. people are hurting, which interesting enough, puts president trump and andrew yapping on the same -- andrew yang on the same side. it is 2020, anything's possible, correct? [laughter] governor whit her -- whitmer once again saying the president's rhetoric is responsible for the plot that was against her. take a listen. >> these domestic terrorists are finding comfort and support in the rhetoric coming out of republican leadership in the white house and our statehouse, so i remain concerned about safety and integrity going up to this election. leland: we saw the president tweet about this. where is he on this as it
10:10 am
relates to his rhetoric one way or another inspiring folks to violence? >> yeah, leland, that just doesn't make any sense. this president's been speaking out for law and order and condemning violence for months. it's been left-wing rioters that have been causing all kinds of violence. in this particular case with the governor, one of the organizers of the blm supports, it was the president's justice department that foiled the plot. so this just doesn't make any sense. there's been a lot of left-wing violence and, of course, the president's speaking out against that. the justice department foiled the plot for this. i mean, that's just a ridiculous comment from the governor, unfortunately. leland: we've heard it echoed over and over among the media as well. why do you think that is? >> well, it's election season, and they're trying to tear down president trump. and, unfortunately, they're doing it in a very dishonest way where we're seeing a lot of left-wing violence, they're trying to blame the president for that.
10:11 am
the president's been the leading vows for peace and law and order and offering up federal law enforcement resources and national guard when necessary, trying to stop the violence, stop people's businesses from being burned down, stop people from being harmed. meanwhile, you have antifa and blm promoting violence and democrat politicians, that's not right. the president is the voice for law and order and law enforcement just as he showed in his speech yesterday. leland: well, did have a lot to say there yesterday from the balcony. suspect he probably will have a few things to say at his rallies coming up monday, tuesday and wednesday. brian, we appreciate your time, coming on today. we were able to look through your instagram as part of our deep due diligence for this -- [laughter] came across these pictures of you proposing to your fiance, hadn't had a chance to talk to you since this happened. congratulations. wish you all the happiness, especially when you guys have a chance to celebrate after the election. >> that's really kind of you. thank you, leland. leland: congratulations to you
10:12 am
and teresa as well. alicia: beautiful pictures and congratulations to them. and now we have the democratic side joining us, new york congressman, vice chair of the problemsoevers caucus, tom suozzi. thank you so much for joining us, congressman. i'd like to begin with these covid talks because house speaker nancy pelosi said this morning things were at an impasse, and you saw the treasury secretary and white house chief of staff sent a letter calling on congress to get this done even if it means beginning with the ppp. and then white house economic adviser larry kudlow said this this morning. >> i think if we could get this thing settled on the democrat side, we will get it settled on the republican side. there will still be further efforts at negotiation, perhaps today. but certainly, this coming week. i don't think we're really -- the ds are holding this thing up. alicia: congressman, what's holding this thing up? >> it's the same old partisan
10:13 am
politics we've seen in washington for too long. as you said, i'm the vice chair of the problemsoevers caucus -- problem solvers caucus. we need common ground. we need to help these people that can't pay their bills, end help these small businesses, we need to help these people that are afraid of coronavirus. the democrats are at $2.2 trillion, the white house $1.8 trillion. let's find a deal. let's help these state and local governments that are about to lay off cops and teachers. let's work together. forget about the politics, let's just help the people and get a deal done. and it's only the white house and the house of representtivities that -- representatives that make the deal, fine. put it in the lap of mitch mcconnell and hold him accountable -- alicia: what are democrats willing to do on this? in the middle of this huge gap are small businesses, folks waiting for some sort of relief. >> democrats proposed a proposal sick months ago, proposed a $3.5
10:14 am
trillion deal. to try to get a deal down, they've moved down to $2.2 there trillion. now the white house has finally come up to $1.8 trillion. we're very close. let's bring the gap, looking at state and local governments, unemployed people, small businesses, looks at restaurants, catering halls, live entertainment venues, looks at testing and tracing and isolation. let's make a comprehensive deal and finally address this problem for the benefit of the american people. and, you know, i think the democrats have been trying to make a deal for six months. nothing happened for five months. just recently the problem solvers put out a proposal to find compromise, and now people are negotiating again. just last week the president said let's not negotiate anymore, walk away from the table, then he came back again. okay. we're used to dealing with that with the president, he goes back and forth. alicia: a lot of judgment going around on both sides, you've got to admit. i would like to move on to the
10:15 am
supreme court because former vice president biden, as you know, is getting so much attention right now for not answering this question on court packing and actually i saying in that interview with that reporter out in nevada that, no, americans don't deserve to hear the answer first. and before i get your thoughts on this, i'd like you to hear what senator ben sasse of nebraska said this morning. >> it's grotesque that vice president biden won't answer that really basic question. what they're talking about is blowing up the deliberative structure of the united states senate by abolishing the filibuster, making it possible to turn the senate into just another house of representatives where every twoar years by a -- two years by a 51-49 majority, i major portions of american life change. and they're doing that to pack the supreme court. alicia: congressman, what about that? do americans deserve to hear this answer? >> i want to make it very clear, i don't support increasing the size of the supreme court. but right now people are focused on the unemployed, businesses that are crashing, the people
10:16 am
that are sick, the people that have died, the things that we need to do -- this is a distraction, quite frankly. what we need -- the senate should be focused on finally coming to the table and making a deal to address the coronavirus and stimulus problems that we face. so, you know, i think like everybody that's watching your show, we just want to try to get something done to help the people, and they're sick of all the extremist voices on both sides trying to distract us when this, in reality, the main thing in front of us is the fact that businesses are crashing. people can't pay their basic bills. hospitals are worried about the second wave. you know, let's -- alicia: how is what you're saying not a deflection to the actual question here? the question is why not answer the american people on whether or not he wants to pack the court? >> is that the real question? is that the question that the american people are concerned about right now? i don't think that's e the real question. i think the real question that people are concerned about is
10:17 am
how to save our economy, how we have tens of millions of people that are unemployed, that we have small businesses that are crashing every single day. we need to pass a stimulus bill. that's the real question. rush liver congressman suozzi, thank you so much for your time today. we appreciate this on a sunday. have a good one. >> thank you so much. leland: it was an awful weekend for folks down along the gulf coast as they deal with the aftermath of a one-two punch from hurricanes laura and delta. casey stegall live there. more destruction behind him. hi, case i city. -- casey. >> reporter: thousands are displaced, tens of thousands of people are without power as the folks here in southwest louisiana try and start picking up the pieces yet again. we're live on the ground coming up next. ♪ so what's going on?

10:32 am
election day. now, the hearing begins tomorrow morning. expect several topics to be discussed. some of those, a abortion, gun rights, immigration and health care. mainly health care. democrats are going to focus on this issue, and barrett's views. barrett's views on the affordable care act, they are well known. she is no fan, and that worries many democrats. they say republicans just want to get rid of the aca in the middle of this pandemic. listen. >> she would vote to strike down the aca and protections for millions of americans and overturn roe, protections for women. so a vote for judge barrett is very simple, it's a vote the take health care away from 20 million americans. >> reporter: meanwhile, republicans argue that the president has every right to appoint a supreme court justice while he's serving as the president. >> when she puts on her black robe in the morning, she knows what it is to be a judge, and that is to cloak your personal
10:33 am
preferences. our judges don't wear red or blue jerseys, they don't advocate for policy positions. >> reporter: fox news obtained a copy of her opening statement. i want the read part of it, quote: but courts are not designed to solve every problem or right every wrong in our public life. the policy decisions and value judgments of government must be made by the political branches elected by and accountable to the people. the public should not expect courts to do so, and courts should not try. on the issue of health care, a big one, one week after the election the supreme court will hear arguments over the merits of the acd and, alicia, it's possible we could see a justice barrett sitting on the bench there. alicia? alicia: david spunt, thanks so much. lee it's going to be a very busy week for the two ladies we're going to talk to now. bring in the president of the constitutional accountability city -- [inaudible] and stephanie todd.
10:34 am
we appreciate both of you being here. elizabeth, we understand that democrats is have basically agreed there's not much that can be done to stop this procedurally. we've seen this argument from chuck schumer you're going to lose your health care, and roe will be overturned if amy coney barrett is confirmed. is that the best line of attack? >> well, i think that, you know, first and foremost, there is the issue of whether this vacancy should be fill right now at all. while it does seem as though the senate judiciary hearings will be going on, the fact remains that a majority of americans want the next president to fill this vacancy after millions of ballots have already been cast and especially in the middle of a pandemic that is still out of control and small businesses and those unemployed are still looking for relief. leland: supreme court justices aren't supposed to be confirmed based on a poll about whether americans think they should be
10:35 am
confirm. of course. leland: it's are you qualified or not. >> yes, but see, the thing is that the constitution says the senate has the advise and consent role, and the senate -- looking at the fact that an election is going on right now and the fact that the american people see the legitimacy of the court's at stake should -- leland: i don't know about the legitimacy question, i'm not sure how that -- stephanie, is it worth republicans trying to have the conversation, or would it just be better to not even bother with the hearing and just have the vote? seems as though the nose count's already done. >> well, the senate is on track to confirm amy coney barrett by the end of the month, and if you look at the time, the first two women to be appointed to the court -- leland: the timing argument's been rehashed so many times. this would be the question, it doesn't seem as though the hearings really matter to east side. elizabeth weighed in, and i don't think there's anything that amy coney barrett could say
10:36 am
that's going to get a democrat to vote for her, and it appears there's not going to be anything at least that we've heard in terms of a substantive question from the members of the judiciary on the republican side. they're looking to figure out whether they will or will not vote for amy coney barrett. fore gone conclusion, right? >> the role of the judiciary hearing is to ask questions of these candidates about their judicial philosophy and their judicial record. and so one thing we're going to be looking at first liberty are institute is whether the senate democrats are going to be asking improper questions such as questions about her religious faith which the majority of americans, the overwhelming majority of americans, two-third, oppose these sorts of religious are questions. leland: a big part of this hearing -- >> no one's going to ask questions like that. we don't care about her faith -- [inaudible conversations] leland: elizabeth, there was dianne feinstein who asked direct questions about it and said the dogma lives loudly
10:37 am
inside of her. it's not really a far stretch to think that might come up, is it? >> no one is talking about that right now except conservatives. to be honest -- leland: well, elizabeth, they're talking about -- [inaudible conversations] leland: dianne feinstein brought ill up. >> that was years ago. the american people don't want someone that will overturn roe and get rid of pre-existing conditions. it's not the most important thing to be talking about right now, but i agree with stephanie that hearings are important because we do need to look at the record. the american people need to know who is going to be put on the bench of for this lifetime appointment. >> and judge barrett has confirmed again and again she is a committed textualist, and she will be dedicated to upholding the constitution. leland: as we can seeing i don't think we've changed either side's mind in this. but what this has brought up is this debate about, quote-unquote, court packing. the democrats seem to want to define it as filling the vacancy
10:38 am
that is there in normal times and even democrats during the primary defined it as adding seats to the supreme court. there's a big difference. but joe biden doesn't seem to be wanting to talking about even the definition he used. take a listen. >> sur, don't the voters deserve to finish. >> no, they don't. i'm not going to play his game. he'd love me to talk about, and i've already said something on packing the court, but he'd love that to be the discussion instead of what he's doing now. he's about to make a pick in the middle of the election, first time it's the ever been done. leland: boy, elizabeth, playing hide the ball with how you think about a really serious issue? >> so, you know, i think he has a point that the conversation to be having right now is about what's going to be happening tomorrow which is these hearings to put on someone on the bench for a lifetime appointment, yeah. but if i you want to talk about the court expansion, look, i don't think there's anything wrong saying we need to see how
10:39 am
this nomination goes forward because you questioned my saying -- no, let me finish, you questioned me saying the legitimacies to have court was on the line. the court's constitutional lowell depends on -- if the people see a rush for nomination and have a crisis of confidence in the court, then expanding the numbers might be appropriate. >> talking about undermining, you're talking about undermining one with of the three branches of government. leland: 4r5eudtys, i've got to run, but, elizabeth, you answered the question that the former vice president would not. appreciate it, a ladies. a lot of air time coming up for both of you this week, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> thanks for having us. alicia: suburban women are a key demographic in the race for the white house. president trump warning his opponent will destroy sub you are ya. -- suburbia with. our political possible breakses it down after the break. award-winning customer satisfaction...

♪ ♪ alicia: once in a generation wildfires have exposed vulnerability across california. i spoke with the ceo of the la tee known community foundation on how her organization is stepping in to help those struggling the most to get back on their feet. and jacqueline, welcome. ing thank you so much for your time today, we appreciate it. i want to begin by letting folks know there are at least 23 major wildfires currently burning in the state of california, but we're here to talk about the latino community foundation and what it is that you are doing with regard to the wildfires and the latino community in california. can you explain that to us, please? >> sure. first of all, thank you so much for having me. we have 4 million acres that have already burned in california. this has been a wildfire season like none other. over the course of the last two and a half months, our
10:45 am
foundation has focused on two of those major wildfires in making sure that latino families, farm workers, immigrant families have the resources they need as they're being displaced to find locations where they can safely wait until these fires get fully contained and also making sure that we can rebuild in a way that has more affordable housing in communities where so many people are just living in some substandard housing right now. alicia: and you have mentioned that it's the latino community that is unusually and disproportionately affected by these wildfires. is that true? >> yeah. so as you look at the numbers in terms of our vineyard and farm workers, 92% of them are latino. so when we think about the fact that we're in harvest season right now, so many of the folks who have been working the land are latinos, and they're being affect by these fires. -- affected by these fires. the convergence of covid-19 and
10:46 am
unemployment has had on latinos, more than 90% of the case -- 60% of the cases are among latinos. more than 360,000 people have become ill, 8,000 families have lost a loved one due the covid. it's not just the wildfires, it's how these three crises -- unemployment, covid-19 and now the wildfires -- have affected latinos so harmed. alicia: and we're talking about essential workers up and down the spectrum here. and this entire region is going to need to to be rebuilt. that's e when construction workers come into play, and they make up quite a bit -- latinos make up quite a bit of the construction industry, isn't that right? >> that's right. i mean, if you just look at the numbers, one out of five latinos has the luxury of working from home, that means the majority of latinos are filling essential jobs, out there making sure we can shelter in place, they're the ones working in supermarkets, they're the ones in the fields, they're the ones
10:47 am
distributing the food in manufacturing companies that actually help us get food to our plates. and so this is something that, as you mentioned construction jobs, it's latinos who fill the majority of those jobs. they are the backbone of our economy here in california. so making sure that the they have stable housing, they have food at their own table, they're going to take care of their a family is our number one priority at this point. alicia: an essential part of our nation's economy. jacqueline, thank you so much for your time today, we appreciate it and admire the work that you're doing. take care. >> thank you so much, bye-bye. alicia: for more information on how you can contribute to the great work the that tee know foundation is doing to help those in need, visit that teen know cf.org/nor cal wildfire relief fund. and we'll be right back. whoo-hoo! great tasting ensure with 9 grams of protein,

us, ladies, i appreciate it. first, liz, i want to begin with you. let's put up a number here that we have, fox news poll among likely voters, this is looking at women here, and it clearly shows that the president is in trouble with women except for white women without a college degree. there is such a disparity there. so, liz, my question to you, first, is what is the issue here for the president that is creating such a difference between him and the former vice president? >> well, i think democrats have been very successful in making this election all about trump's personality as opposed to his policies. i think a lot of voters agree, and certainly women agree, that he's rough, he can be crude, he's a bully sometimes, and they don't like that. but i think when the day comes that people actually have to vote, hopefully they'll remember that this president really did
10:53 am
create 7 million jobs, really did so many things to lift up women, blacks, asians, all of our different groups of people in this country leading to record low unemployment and so forth. they've talked about that. but i think president trump has really failed to make the case that he can do it again. and by the way, in 2018 we saw huge number, huge turnout from women and a big skew toward voting democrat. but that was at a time when the economy was doing extremely well, and job creation was no longer the top concern for voters. i think now coming out of a very bad recession i think that's changed a little bit. and i think the economy is going to be the number one issue again. polling shows that. alicia: and, joanna, i'd like you to address that, but first, i want to put up the results from the 2016 election because it was white suburban women who really helped the president across the line the last go
10:54 am
around. what about liz's point that maybe this time around it's not going to work? >> yeah. i mean, women make up the majority of voters in this country now. so, you know, our votes matter very much. i am one of those suburban white women, and, you know, i'm on the school council, on the t tpta, and there is a --pta. you know, the president's had three and a half years to make government work and work better. and instead of doing that, he just blames the other side. you know, none of us want to talk about cities, states or people being red or blue. we just want government to work, and we want a better environment for our children. and and so, you know, my mom has been a traditional republican voter all of her life, and she will be voting against this president. she was just diagnosed with breast cancer, and if the president gets his way, she will
10:55 am
lose coverage for preexisting condition. that is a real result for so many americans. you know, we want this president to talk about issues, and every time he goes to the podium, he's blaming everyone else instead of having any solutions himself. so, you know, think it's very telling what happens this election with women and whether president trump is going to have a second term. alicia: i do want to offer our thoughts to your mother with this diagnosis, so thank you for sharing that with us. but, liz, i'm running out of time here, and i do want to get your thoughts on what johanna just said. this is simply not going to work, can the president pull it off though? >> look, i think health care is an area where the republicans have done a poor job, and my sympathies also to your mom. but it should be noted that only 3% of people with preexisting conditions are under obamacare. this whole precondition -- pre-existing condition argument
10:56 am
has really been taken to an illogical extreme. i think that, again, we are back in a position where we need jobs created, we need manufacturing jobs created, etc., and the president's policies really did extreme wily well for all of our -- extremely well for all of our country -- alicia: i've got to leave it there, ladies. i'm sorry, i've running out of time. thank you so much. >> thank you. leland: well, we're only a few more weeks until the election. things, of course, will get more calm and relaxed -- alicia: absolutely. leland: yeah. calm and relaxed on "fox news sunday." chris wallace next with chris coons and ben sass. and with their insurance, it was no cost to them. >> woman: really? >> tech: that's service you can trust. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪
