me social security? i don't need it or want it. he would go on and on. go back and forth. yes indeed. very talented guy. he knew the psychology of human beings, as you just heard. >> dana: successfully turned it into his career after he knew you. which is where he got his start when he knew hemmer. >> bill: rest in peace. >> dana: harris faulkner is up next. >> harris: americans are telling the truth, the whole truth about how they are surviving now. president biden's economy. the white house might spin and ignore its way out of the brand-new poll numbers. it will be interesting to see them try. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." fox news polling out just two days after the president announced his re-election bid for the white house. from former campaign manager for bill clinton who famously said it's the economy, stupid.

you would think democrats would foe that. those were their guys. we know voters go to the polls with their bills and wallets in mind. so this is pretty grim news for biden. 78% say in the survey that they feel the economy is in poor or only fair shape. and this is worse. a record number now, 70% say things are getting worse, not better, when it comes to their family finances. president biden just yesterday brushed off some bad numbers. but pollster lee carter says it is just not that simple. >> there are a few things i think are really bad for him. when you look at some of these things, 70% are dissatisfied with how things are going in this country. more than just what they are talking about the economy. it is some of the worst polling about how people feel about the economy since 2006. >> harris: adding to the president's challenges at this point, the house passed speaker

mccarthy's spending bill and debt limit bill yesterday. congresswoman kat cammack is "focus" moments away. let's begin with edward lawrence at the white house. when 70 plus percent of people on one thing and it's bad for the president what does it mean? >> president biden likes to compare his spending to his predecessor. if you look at the spending under president joe biden from the day he took office until today, according to the committee for responsible federal budget, president biden has spent more than former president donald trump did in that same period. president biden calling for even more spending as the first quarter gdp coming in weaker than expected sluggish at 1.1%. the president said the economy remains strong during his transition. art laffer is concerned about

the spending and economic growth we see from this president. >> there is no growth in this model. no growth in the gdp numbers. long term it is very disappointing. we've been 20 years in this periods of declining groechlth little ups and downs. this is not catching up to where the u.s. should be. far from it. >> under president biden, the congressional budget office says the federal debt will end in 2024 more than $34 trillion. cbo sees debt subject to jet limit ballooning to 50 trillion in ten years. it shows a lot of government spending from here forward. the president playing debt ceiling chicken this time around. >> president biden: not on whether or not the debt limit gets extended. that's not negotiable. they quote reagan and trump all the time. both of which said i'm

paraphrasing, it would be a crime to not extend the debt limit. >> no sign of a meeting from the president or an offer to house speaker kevin mccarthy. back to you. >> harris: that's where we'll begin. thank you very much, ed. you just heard ed say it. the president says he won't negotiate when it comes to the debt ceiling with republicans. the house passed the house speaker's bill in what was seen as a bit of a test for congressman mccarthy. op-ed calls it a debt ceiling win adding if biden still won't negotiate, the burden of default is on him. here is mccarthy. >> the president can no longer ignore by not negotiating or put this economy in jeopardy. we lifted the debt limit and sent it to the senate. we've done our job. >> harris: oh, like kids put in a corner. democrats were angry before,

during and after the vote. >> reckless, extreme ideology down the throats of the american people. >> for all that you do is cut, cut, and cut. all that you get is blood, blood, blood. and the blood of the american people will be on the hands of those who held the knife. >> speaker mccarthy's side show is an extreme maga republican wish list that has 0 chance of passing the senate. >> harris: the bill has nearly no chance of making it to the senate floor but president biden is promising a veto anyway to get in on it all. he won't negotiate but he says no. the white house appealing it had to drive the point here. quote, the president has made clear the bill has no chance of becoming law, end quote. republican congresswoman kat cammack of the great state of florida is here now. the president doesn't want to

negotiate. what does that tell you? >> well, first of all, harris, it tells me we need to get an academy award to all the democrats who wanted to turn the house floor into a theater production. that was something else yesterday. but what it tells me about president biden is that he is more interested in playing politics and a game of chicken with people's retirement accounts and our economy's health. that to me is exactly the message they are sending. they care more about political agendas than people. leadership means stepping up. we took the first step yesterday by putting our negotiation on the table. now they have to come to the table. if he wants to take his ball and go home and say no, he is not going to negotiate, he better explain to the american people why as commander-in-chief he is allowing united states to default on our obligations. >> harris: it's an interesting move he is making. almost as though he were king, a

despot that doesn't have to talk to anybody, he just gets his way. >> yeah. think about that. the house of representatives, we were sent to washington to make tough decisions and put america first. everything that we've seen out of the biden administration to date has been america last. look at the economic policies. they are not designed to help people. all of the biden administration economic policies are designed to trap people. the ultra liberal left agenda is all about growing the size of government, making people dependent on government programs so life long career politicians stay in power. that's all it's about. it is fought about lifting people up. republicans are fighting back. democrats will do every dirty trick in the book to try to say we're the ones that will tank the economy. in reality they won't come to the negotiating table. >> harris: or bring a plan. they could fed ex it to you. they got nothing.

you know what? you mentioned the word trapping the american people. that's what is happening with this. president biden now has his new mortgage policy that would force responsible borrowers, people who actually work on their credit score and pay bills on time and do the things we're supposed to do, as just people. he wants those borrowers to pick up the flak for the high-risk peers. republicans say that's not fair. congresswoman stephanie theis introduced legislation to stop the rule before it begins. she says the president's plan stokes dependency. on the senate side they're calling it socialism and unfair and counter it in a letter to the administration east housing finance agency. major concern over what it could do to the already ailing economy. let's watch. >> like giving somebody a credit card with a higher credit limit than they need. we have a heart but we don't

want to lead to another financial crisis on top of the inflation that we have. >> harris: this is exactly what you were talking about just in terms of that trap americans. >> yeah. think about this. i went from homeless to the house of representatives and i had to work very hard to build a credit worthy to be able to purchase a house and buy a car and do the things that americans across this country work really hard to do. but now we're hearing that is not the american way anymore. we will punish those who achieved the american dream and sacrificed and saved and paid down debt, worked really hard as families and individuals to subsidize those that have made bad decisions. that's not the american way. i am proud of my friend and colleague who took the fight to them and we'll pass legislation that stops this ridiculous policy of punishing people with

good credit to subsidize those for bad credit. $40 more a month that people would have to pay to subsidize those with less than stellar credit. >> harris: it gets worse than that. if you try to sell your home right now, you have to lower the price of what you know your home is worth on an open market. lower the price to then try to attract a buyer who can afford a higher rate because they have good credit. don't you want to sell your house to somebody with good credit? of course. you want them to make the mortgage payments and qualify for them. your last quick thoughts on how this is coupled with the loan forgiveness, student loan forgiveness. all of it is you did the right thing, now pay up. >> listen, it is ludicrous that you have the biden administration predicating their entire case for student loan forgiveness for people who got

gender studies degrees and are now baristas and they're demanding that people that went into the trades and got their degrees and paid them back, families that sacrificed and saved to put their kids through college that they pay their loans. it is a debt transfer to those who did everything right. it is not right. but the entire case of the biden administration is predicated on the public health emergency which as you know and viewers know republicans ended at the beginning of the year. biden tried to ride the coattails of the republican house in saying he ended it. so i'm not sure how this is going to play out. we know it's wrong and i think it will go before the supreme court. >> harris: let's hope people don't get punished for doing the right thing. thank you for sharing some of your personal story. truly the american dream. thank you, congress woman. president biden caught using a cheat sheet at a rare news conference. that is raising even more

concerns about his age and mental fitness. look at that. it comes complete with a picture in case he can't figure out who the person is. how he responded to a reporter's question about the cheat notes. house republicans taking on the head of the teachers union, one of the biggest in america, over covid school closures. >> there was clearly a collusion between the teachers union and the biden administration to keep these schools shut down. why did she push for what i believe would be political solutions as opposed to actually following the science? >> harris: randi weingarten admitting she coordinated with the biden transition team on covid and had a hand in the cdc school reopening guidelines and they were really damaging. dr. siegel in "focus" next.

>> harris: house lawmakers were ready for teachers union chief randi weingarten. she played an expert behind the scenes. it was a fake role. she is not a doctor. she was playing that role with the white house and cdc to make the nation believe schools had to stay locked down. what would her expertise have been? we don't know. the science showed the opposite of what she was saying. we all know that did a lot of harm to our nation's children. the biden team contacted her before the president took office. she also admitted she recommended edits to the cdc's school reopening guidelines and there were fireworks at that

hearing. >> are you a medical doctor? >> i am not. >> i would like to talk about your recommendations to the cdc as not a medical doctor. none of your advice was -- had to do with to stop the spread of covid-19. >> harris: chief washington correspondent mike emanuel with more. >> randi weingarten represents 1.7 million educators as president of the american federation of teachers and was a very vocal presence during the pandemic. she told lawmakers she lives near a hospital and claims ambulances were constantly on the mood during covid creating terror and defended her actions to reopening schools for in-person learning. >> we knew remote education was not a subsy institute for opening schools but people had to be safe. our members and otherwises were terrified. what we were simply looking for

was clear scientific guidance. when we couldn't get it, we did it ourselves. >> they pushed to keep schools closed for more than a year and now education and psychological experts argue students have suffered a tremendous loss to their academic and social development leading some lawmakers to ask if the union had too much power. >> it's unusual for political union to have such a role in scientific guidance process and hopefully we can find more answer necessary this hearing. >> republicans say they deliver ans to american parents. >> americans are curious to no if the aft access was in line with cdc past practice and if their influence had a positive or negative effect on america's children. >> the unions kept pushing for more money and when they received it they came back with excuses why they could not get

back in the classroom. >> harris: now to a new op-ed headline. randi weingarten ruined our kids lives but refuses to apologize for not following the science. since the onset of the pandemic public trust in public health and public education have cratered. gas lighting from the leaders of covid response is a perfect picture of why. if we keep paying the arsonists to burn the fire trucks we shouldn't be surprised when they burn it all down. in "focus" now dr. marc siegel, fox news contributor and professor of medicine at nyu langone medical center. we were talking yesterday and more information has come forth. i want to start with the science. what was the exact science, the truth about lockdowns? >> well first of all, you know, physicians were on the front lines. we were on the covid wards and my office reopened in may of 2020. i call myself an essential

worker. i call teachers essential workers. so right off the bat i questioned and continue to question why teachers weren't on the front lines when doctors and nurses were. and the second point really importantly is studies started coming out in 2020 in wisconsin, in north carolina, in europe, big studies that showed that you got much more spread of covid by putting kids at home. what do you think they did at home? spread viruses. if you put them in a school setting open a window, do testing. pi kids go to private school. that school was open and testing sending kids home once they got sick. randi weingarten is a disgrace. the american rescue plan gave 122 billion to schools. a lot of it was wasted and not used to keep schools open when they had private schools as a model to keep schools open. so we had every reason to keep

schools open. every reason to know there would be collateral damage. there was every reason to think it would harm kids. that there would be more harm done from keeping them at home. >> harris: fascinating what you say in your personal experience and some of them were parochial schools. in states like florida and arizona, they let the money follow the child. it wasn't necessarily that these were very, very high-end private schools but they were making it work in a more private setting, whatever that annual cost opposed to public. they didn't have somebody like a randi weingarten shifting the gears out of her lane. let's move to this. voters' concerns over the president's age probably not going away. he down played the issue again yesterday and it was classic joe biden. >> you've said questions about your age are legitimate. your response is always just watch me. what do you say to those americans who are watching and aren't convinced?

>> president biden: with regard to age, i can't even say i guess how old i am, i can't even say the number. it doesn't register with me. people will find out and see a race and they will judge whether or not i have it or don't have it. >> harris: first of all, if you weren't listening closely you might not have known whether or not he knew his own age. the "wall street journal" now asking what is healthy at 80? what should we expect? biden's 2024 re-election bid prompts the question. so look, you point out time and time again when you aren't someone's personal doctor. i want to ask you as a medical expert what are you looking for no matter who walks into your office from an 80-year-old? >> well, that's a great question. by the way, you and i were ahead of the headlines on "outnumbered." that cheat sheet came out after we already talked about this. >> harris: about the need for it. >> right.

i've interviewed prior presidents, trump, bush. i've spoken to clinton and his doctors. these were people that didn't need huge cheat sheets. i already questioned that. i want to say right off the bat it is not a function of age. what do i look for? i look for the ability for thinking, for clear thinking, for what we call executive function. can you do complex decisions. can you think outside the box? can you be flexible if something comes in? there is a threat coming from another country, you are hearing about it for the first time. do you need a cheat sheet? we need cognitive testing here. the president's doctor has been dancing around that from physical after physical he says -- everyone says he is fine. we're not seeing the cognitive testing or the mri. we hear he has a stiff legged gate which can be a sign of neurological issues. i want more information. the american public has a right to know. they say he is too old to run. i wonder if it isn't age but

what status his cognition is. >> harris: that's really critical because he is going to be 82 if he wins, takes office in the next election. then he would be 86 if he sticks around for four years. and that question was a fair one to the press secretary. does he intend to be there for all eight years? remember he said he was only going to work one term when he first ran. what is he like at 82 and 86? what are you looking for generically speaking? >> again, i'm already concerned because the statistics are that over 85, 20% of people period have dementia. >> harris: that's across the board. >> that's without his heart history. he has an irregular rhythm and two operations on his brain. the gait problems increase the

chance. i don't call these gaffes. i don't call it gaffes. i don't want to be cruel here because i actually think we should feel compassion and empathy for the president. when he says his son died in iraq and he made a huge point of his son dying of a brain tumor and increase cancer awareness. that's hardly a gaffe. the disorientation periods concern me. i think the president's doctor has an obligation for transparency here. >> harris: his campaign and everybody has an obligation to assure the american public that he can do what he says. that is, finish the job. that's his campaign slogan. last quick word. >> here is the thing. he may not realize that he is impaired. his handlers do. there is way too much handling going on here. i told you yesterday kayleigh mcenany did not handle that president. dana perino did not handle that

president. the chief of staff and press tear is handling the president. can he make a quick decision? >> harris: thank you very much for being in "focus." a lot to think about and more to look for. democratic lawmakers overheard straight up mocking parents' concerns. they used words like stupid and garbage and yes, of course it was caught on a hot mic. the issue of women and girls sports staying front and center. one republican center is very angry with democrats and the white house for not protecting actual women athletes. >> as usual the biden administration is trying to legislate from the white house. the executive branch. because they know their radical ideas would not -- i repeat would not make it through this congress. >> harris: the bill republicans tried to pass before one democrat got in the way blowing up the whole thing. we'll get into it.

>> harris: house voted to protect female athletes. this time the senate should do the same thing. women and girls are suffering at the hands of an ideology. the biden administration has taken a sledgehammer, a big sledgehammer to title ix. it is unfair, unsafe, and it is down right wrong. to be honest, it is moronic. >> harris: that's tommy tuberville calling out the truth about what democrats are doing to women and girls in sports. liberal senators blocked the bill to protect women's sports from biological males who want to compete against actual women. the house version of the bill passed last week with 0 democratic support. mazie hirono is getting credit

on the left for killing the senate version. >> they continue to hurl insulting lies about transgender girls dominating sports. this isn't about supporting women and girls, this is about power and control. republicans have the wrong priorities. we shouldn't be banning anyone who playing sports. for these reasons i object. >> harris: they're banned from playing sports as men versus actual women not banned from playing sports. when pushed dems dismissed the problems outright. >> things that do more to encourage women to participate in sports, not less. it is what i feel like is an incredibly insensitive bill. >> i think the maneness against the trans community is terrible. >> you are more likely to have your kid play with a future nba all-star than have to deal with what republicans are suggesting

is going on. >> you might be creating an issue that isn't really there. >> harris: oh, there is an issue. 54% of americans believe that biological men competing in women's sports is a major issue including outkick founder clay travis in "focus" now. your top line thoughts. >> top line thought, harris, is this is an issue and it is going to become more and more of an issue as more men identify as women and compete as women in sports all over america. if it hasn't already happened in your state, in your school district, to your daughter or your granddaughter, it is going to be happening. pretending that this isn't an issue is flagrantly telling people what they are seeing with their own eyes is wrong. the trans issue makes this

sometimes a glaring major attention. but if you -- i coach and have coached little league baseball. if i showed up at a 10-year-old little league baseball game and brought a 16-year-old boy to play on the 10-year-old team, every single parent would say what in the world are you doing? in fact, this was a little league world series controversy in a new york team several years ago. everybody overwhelmingly said that is a violation of fair play because you have someone who is too old competing against younger kids. when you have a man, like lia thomas, who is bigger, stronger, faster in women's swimming, then every other woman and he turns into a woman, goes from being a mediocre male swimmer in college to a women's champion, that is a pretty strong sign of what happens. there is a reason we separate men's and women's athletics. if we just had one unisex

category most women wouldn't make a team at all. to say nothing of being able to star and be a champion. >> harris: you brought up something there, too. your comparison of a 16-year-old versus a 10-year-old is an excellent one. it is apples and apples in terms of the maturity of that male versus someone else. what you also brought up was this idea of, you know, there being generic sports. we don't have generic sports. otherwise there would be no trophies for women as you are saying. it wouldn't be fair. really interesting points. i want to get to this. a hot mic moment. one that is causing a world of embarrassment, perhaps. two virginia democrats caught mocking parents who are worried about their children. the state senators dismissed parental rights issues. they called it garbage and

stupid. >> one line parental garbage on porn. >> he sticks a bill on top that we rejected twice and said senate democrats are playing politics. it's the parental crap they're selling. >> it's why we have to keep the senate. the house is in in the hands of the republicans and they can push through all kinds of stupid things. and we rely on the senate to pull it off. >> harris: they have constituents and lead a lot of people. fox news we would reach out to those lawmakers to see if there is anything they would like to say. we're going to play that tape, as you saw. no comment so far. we'll report it if that changes, clay. >> what i would react here harris, you and i are parents. there is a lot of talk now about how crazy republicans are being in trying to determine what

looks or is appropriate for kids and you will hear all the time. i say mayor pete saying we're building bridges in the democrat party and they're trying to ban books. i believe that was quote. no one is trying to ban books. this is important. i think republicans and also just really reasonable people need to do a better job of explaining this. we talk about what is age appropriate. if you don't take your kid to an r rated movie, the movie isn't banned. you are deciding it is not age appropriate for your 13 or 14-year-old to see. that's what is going on in schools now. what is appropriate to expose kids to in schools? not anything new. we've been doing it for generations. it's called parenting. >> harris: we got to the same word. i have to let you go. we have breaking news at the border. a conversation about what is happening at the border. you look at secretary of state antony blinken joined by dhs secretary mayokas who may step up to the lectern as well

talking about what happens when title 42 wipes away. let's watch. see if they have a plan. >> magnitude, the range of drivers, push and pull factors all demand we work together. that's why last summer president biden brought together leaders from nations across the western hemisphere to agree to the los angeles declaration on migration and protection. 21 countries have joined that declaration. the declaration is an acknowledgement of shared responsibility on migration and shared commitment to work together and leverage of partners across government, private sector, humanitarian organizations and multi-lateral organizations all coming together to address this challenge. so let me highlight some of the ways the united states is working with our partners in the region on migration. so to take among other things pressure off our border by giving people alternatives to

making a hazardous journey to seek asylum in the united states. fundamentally we work to tackle the root causes of migration so that people don't have to leave their homes in the first place. including investing and redirecting and mobilizing resources for the more than 4.2 million vice president harris helped to secure for northern central america. investments by businesses and social enterprises connect people to digital economy. expand access to financing. providing training and education for young people and workers and improving economic live le hoods across the region and investing in economic opportunity through the nearly 1.2 billion we provided in humanitarian assistance across the region last year and initiatives like our commitment to work with our partners to train and equip 500,000 local healthcare workers over the next five years so more people can get quality care in their own communities. all of these investments will

help people feel they have a future in their own communities. of course many of these investments can take time to bear fruit so we're working in parallel on critical collaborations and initiatives with partners in the hemisphere to have a more near-term impact. first, we're supporting host countries as they provide legal protections and assistance to refugees and migrants so they can thrive in their new communities. we do that by delivering funding to schools, health facility and other supporters that support migrants. capacity building of local asylum centers and systems and rechblg is trigs and documentation efforts to individuals can gain and democrat legal status which is critical for access to work, to schools, to social services. our partners in turn are doing extraordinary work. columbia has given 10-year temporary protected status to

2 1/2 million people from venezuela allowing them to work, study and access public services. ecuador and other countries are undertaking similar efforts to take migrants from venezuela and nicaragua and peru. we see efforts as well to forgive existing migrant overstate fines removing one of the largest barriers to regularization. brazil's operation welcome helped over 100,000 venezuelan resettle in places where they have greater economic opportunity. mexico and canada are increasing the number of people they welcome on a humanitarian basis and working with partners to accept repatriation flights. increase security forces along migration routes. provide more assistance to migrants and refugees. we continue to surge assistance to host countries to help immigrate refugees and migrants and increase humanitarian aid and protection for vulnerable

populations. second we are announce a 60 day surge of urgent assistance to regional partners to county smuggling. we'll share more in a few moments and disinformation being spread by traffickers and other bad actors by expanding our paid -- through channels reaching upward of 85 million people. so that people who want to migrate have accurate information about how to do so legally and safely and know the dangers of putting themselves in the hands of traffickers. third, we're significantly expanding access to lawful pathways for migration for those in need including the u.s. refugee admissions program. for too many people in too many places, these pathways feel far from reach. so we're working to create more opportunities and to make them

more accessible. the united states welcomes six times as many refugees in 2022 than during the previous year. we're on track to double those arrivals in 2023. in january, president biden committed to welcoming 30,000 individuals every month from cuba, haiti, venezuela, and nicaragua through a parole program. regular migration fell by more than 97% in the first month because people now have a legal and safe pathway. >> harris: we hitting pause there. one of the things that i was watching for with the secretary of state and potentially the dhs secretary mayokas who is also there was for them to acknowledge the things that they are doing on the ground as if there were going to be an john onslaught of people. because there are. that felt more like a root causes lecture which is why you saw that for so long at the

bottom of the screen. that's what he was setting up. title 42 goes away may 11th. sometimes 10,000 people come across the border most are not at checkpoints. they come in boats along the rio grande and took you along the border to show you that people are still interested very much so in coming in illegally even though title 42 gives them a bunch of things they can go around the biden administration if you check certain categories of protected status you could come into the country based on that so on and so forth. we'll bring you the news out of that news conference as they make news that actually is specific to what we'll see in a few days and how we'll handle that. let's move on. president biden holding a rare news conference yesterday. it looked like he needed some help. we showed you this earlier. we'll lean into it a little bit. it was more than just holding up a cheat sheet.

it had the picture of the reporter and gave a heads-up on what she would be asking about. another cheat sheet listed for the order of other biden officials who were going to make remarks. it was really clear that anita john would be there and secretary antony blinken. this far into the administration you couldn't recognize him in the front row? this is just the latest example of president biden's long history of relying on crib notes. cheat sheets during public events. the numbers say people what biden to be more accessibility to the press. 76% of voters want him to give -- david, i start with you and look. i've talked with an interviewed and sit next to on "outnumbered" former press secretaries. sometimes there will be some

notes to get people ready. this has the specificity, though, with pictures, that is quite different. >> remember in school when the student somehow got the questions for the test in advance and still failed the test? that's what we see here with the biden administration. he still cannot articulate the ideas that are making american's lives easier, safer and better and why you have 80% of americans who wish he didn't run again and an upstart in robert kennedy getting 19% of the vote in the democratic primary right now. >> harris: desirae, when you look at where the president is in the polling right now and we can pop some of this up. new fox polling shows that while biden is backed by 62% of democratic primary voters his challengers, robert kennedy junior and mary anne williamson have a combined 28%.

that's not an also ran number. that's a significant number. almost a third of voters are looking at somebody else in the race. whether they would choose them or not they look at somebody else. your thoughts. >> there are also polls that came out recently that show president biden absolutely crushing former president donald trump. the reality is we'll have another match-up in 2024 between likely president biden and president donald trump and i think the -- >> harris: i know you want it to be him and i believe you believe it will be. >> i don't think -- i know you guys on the far right really want ron desantis to be the nominee. >> harris: i don't know who you are talking to in terms of you guys. >> entertainer in chief. >> harris: i know it wasn't meant for me. >> i think it will be trump and biden and a match-up and the results will be the same. >> harris: hopefully okay, i'm sure you heard when i said. look. how fair is it there wouldn't be

a debate? biden does a so-called clearing the field. that other voices aren't even welcome when you have a man running who will be 86 if he makes it into the office again through an entire next term. david, don't democrats, doesn't america, don't people deserve to see this president go up against some of the other best in his party? >> we have to remember this is than administration or presidential candidate who stayed in his basement the entire election last time. ultimately became the nominee because he was what people were willing to accept, not what they were excited for. whether the president or vice president neither one can articulate why they should be given a second term. you have to look at -- you pointed this out. why you have a significant number of democrats who say they want to consider someone else for their nominee because they got the president. it is not who they wanted last

time. >> harris: the abb crowd as i like to call them. anybody but biden. it is much bigger than 28% that williamson and kennedy are getting now. vice president kamala harris under fire after making puzzling comments. let's watch together. >> i think it's very important for us at every moment in time and certainly this one, to seize the moment in time in which we exist and are present and be able to understand where we exist in the history and in the moment as it relates not only to the past but the future. >> harris: one critic calling it a word salad. another saying she is simply incapable of speaking normally. the kind of nonsense talk taking on more importance given the president's re-election bid given his age. there are real concerns we could
