>> hello, this is "outnumbered" live from the dnc. i'm kayleigh mcenany. here is my cohost emily compagno and harris faulkner. also joining us fox news contributor anti-federalist editor in chief mollie hemingway, and fox news contributor 32 advisor com former economic advisor to president obama robert wolf. thank you for being here. president biden did not take the day and say stage until just before 11:30 p.m. eastern time last night, thanks to a slew of other speakers, biden's remarks were delayed. axios reporter alex thompson sharing this text from a longtime biden aid. "this is awful. he literally set up a campaign and handed it over to them. do they have to cut him out of prime time?" according to politico, convention organizers blamed it
9:02 am
on raucous applause interrupting speaker after speaker. hmm, the rnc managed to manage that applause. once biden finally got on stage, he tried to dispel reports of anger and resentment over his 2024 exit. >> it's been the honor of my lifetime to serve as your president. i love the job but i love my country more. i love my country more. all this talk about how i'm angry at those people and they said i should step down, that's not true. [crowded chanting] >> chancing in unison with that was none other than nancy pelosi, despite reports of acrimony she now loves too. weeks after orchestrating the plot that led to the end of
9:03 am
biden's 50 year career, pelosi was in the crowd chanting "we love joe was close. she loves him but has no regrets about the brutal and cold scheme to take him out. >> have you talked to him? >> -- what i have to do. he made the decision for the country. my concern was not about the president: it was about his campaign. as he has seen, the exuberance, the excitement that has come forth in our country. >> nobody is questioning the fact that the democratic party seems much better position right now than it did for kaeo weekes and two days ago, no question about that. >> so why are we even talking about it? >> my scripts -- [laughter] >> she might not want to talk about it, but nancy pelosi's fingerprints were all over biden's ouster.
9:04 am
said it was like a bomb going off. how biden may be soon persuaded to exit cnn. pelosi probably told biden polls show that they cannot win, and that they forced biden into a come to jesus moment in a 2024 run with a threat to publicly track him. there is tension despite the "we love joe hoisting" of the sign. >> is that tamino? >> yes. thank you for having me on. a lot to unpack. first, i liked that he got on late and went a little longer. i think for all of the east coasters, we wanted to make sure he could stay up past midnight, so i think they did that as a tease.
9:05 am
there was electricity in the air last night. i have been a huge joe biden fan. i was an early supporter for him in 2020. i stayed unwavering throughout until the day he resigned. my view it was kind of a perfect storm happened, kayleigh. the polls broke, the electoral map widened, the donors went to the sideline, will and after seeing -- whether it was speaker pelosi or others pushing him to make a more pragmatic decision, he made one, and he made it. i thought last night was great for him and his family. i see it very differently. i think it was his ability to have a goodbye where everyone was applauding him. speak i think that is an honest analysis as to what led to his exit, but harris, in contrast to robert who laid out what i think
9:06 am
are undeniable facts, there is a heavy dose of deniability at msnbc. listen to rachel maddow. >> in a truly astonishing once-in-a-lifetime sacrifice, that he did not have to make, that no one forced him to make or anyone could, a sacrifice of his own ambitions for the prospects of his party, president biden instead chose a plan b. >> kayleigh, there were people on both sides of the aisle who were dragging the man for weeks after june 27th stick baits. give me a break. out self-sacrificing moment for him? he saw the things robert wolf was talking about, sought the numbers. if we want to go back to that horrible and deadly withdrawal from afghanistan, his numbers have not rebounded once. we saw them start to slide, his approval rating.
9:07 am
we saw that start to slide, and it has never bounced back to what it was. he has been watching this in slow motion, and as far as declining health and the justice department's report that he was an elderly man with a poor memory and they couldn't invite him and that sort of thing. put all that aside. the american public has been seeing what was on full display june 27th at that debate for quite some time. he is feeling it. he is living it. to say that nobody knew, i don't even know if he should be saying those words. i think they are unbelievable. what is believable is after all that sacrifice through five decades of service as a congressman, a senator, a vice president and now a president, it was still fairly chilly between those two families. i want to know behind the scenes if that matters to voters, if their guy at the top during the primary season, they thought they voted for is now out for a woman who won't even give an interview to put out her
9:08 am
policies in a coherent way. i want to know if that matters to them. we will have to see. >> other side of the aisle from robert is scout jennings at cnn. he is a republican. he had a different view of what went on last night. >> they are making give his own eulogy at this convention. he had to be dragged out by the fingernails. this is not a happy moment. this yarn that is being spun that he was popular and selfless -- you know. it's the opposite and everybody knows it. >> emily? >> or spitefully, i agree with scout jennings analysis of the spirit i see this as two depictions. on one hand, we have a highly produced, big theater, super gimmicky dnc convention. that is typical. that is when he comes out and is pushed out of prime time. as the headlines say, biden is
9:09 am
passing the torch to kamala. on msnbc this morning, the headline read "hillary clinton passes the torch to kamala." my point about drawing that distinction between the production and the second one is that of a president who has served this country for 50 years in public office, and at this time, felt that it was always late. he assumed the presidency later than he wanted. he is now been kicked out later than he wanted. this was always not on his own timing that he hoped or expected, so yes, there was a machine that swept him to the side. it's like when a family gets a new puppy on board and the old dog is dying, unfortunately, but that is too true and unrelated from the austerity of the presidential office and the goodbye he will make to the american people after he finishes being commander in chief. >> molly, this convention was heavy on politicians but light on american people.
9:10 am
we heard from three women last night, but it's a contrast to the republican national convention, where you heard from the brother, rachel moran, mother of five -- lost to an illegal immigrant -- these powerful stories from everyday americans. maybe we will hear from them tonight, but if you like those are the best speeches in either convention. >> is the difference between showing and telling. kamala harris keeps saying that she is running a campaign for the people, but you are not seeing that evidenced in the convention at all. this was sad to see what happened last night. you are thinking they say they are going to take care of pe people. wouldn't even do events after 8:00 p.m. it was almost sad to see, regardless of what you think about president biden. the problem is that the biden/harris administration is a failed presidency and they want people to forget the failure they are all experiencing over the last few years.
9:11 am
they think they can push them out of prime time, people won't remember that this is what the country is dealing with and with all the failure of the economy, the border, foreign policy, and otherwise. >> a lot of policies to answer for. we will see what night 2 holds. i did hear the freedom song playing out so maybe we will see kamala harris again. while the dnc is underway, former president trump is on the offensive in battleground states, and one key democrat is warning his party that trunk and win the next election, that's next.
9:13 am
i try to put my arm around any vet that i can. absolutely. at newday usa, that's what we're doing. we put our arm around the veterans. when i think of the veteran out there that needs to refi his home, he may want to purchase and we can help them and provide that financial solution for them and their families. it's a great, rewarding feeling.
9:14 am
everybody in the company, they have that deference and that respect and that love for the veteran that makes this company so unique. veterans, need cash? get up to $70,000 or more with a newday 100 va cash out loan from newday. thank you admiral. this money saving benefit for veterans lets you pay off high rate credit card debt and costly car loans. thank you admiral. make home improvements and repairs you've been putting off. thank you admiral. save hundreds a month, thousands a year.
9:16 am
>> former president trump is set to speak to michigan voters at 3:00 p.m. eastern today. trump and his allies are aiming to steal thunder from the dnc, fanning out across several key battleground states. jump-started his tour in pennsylvania, where he blasted vice president harris' vision for america. >> our economic future had never looked brighter when kamala and biden came in. they quickly blew it all up. our plan will massively cut taxes, unlock american energy,
9:17 am
slash regulations, crackdown on trade cheaters and stop outsourcing, rebuild our industrial base, and bring back those beautiful words "made in the usa." she is running on socialist price controls, banning gas-powered cars, trucks, private health insurance, the policies are gone. she wants to defund the police, abolish cash bail. she wants to give free health care for of illegal immigrants and ship them to the united states immediately. she then wants to sign them up for medicare and social security and wants them to vote illegally, if possible. november 5th will be the most important day in the history of our country. we are going to turn our country around. we are going to make america great again. thank you, everybody. >> while trump is thundering away in critical swing states,
9:18 am
he is also leading on two issues that could define the presidential race. the latest fox news power rankings show trump leading on the immigration crisis and the economy. some democrats are running their own party not to be overconfident about harris. one veteran strategist telling the hill "every presidential campaign in modern history has had to go through an unanticipated scandal, crisis, or world event, and at some point, that political law is going to happen to kamala harris' campaign and one measuring the drapes at the white house needs a serious reality check." david axelrod is saying point-blank trump could win. >> this is still a very competitive race. if the election were today i'm not sure who would win. it may well be president trump because it is an electoral college fight, and in those battleground states -- >> we were looking at national numbers at the top of this program.
9:19 am
>> that enthusiasm is important for the democratic party, but you have to turn that into energetic action in order to win the election. >> robert wolf, what do you make of that? >> i think what david said is accurate. it's going to be seven states. everyone knows that after labor day, the last six that needs to go -- tens of billions of dollars will be spent. it will be a narrative depicting kamala harris' -- and former president trump as y, and it's all about getting out the vote and making sure they talk to the voters, as harris said on her show earlier. i think the one thing that i would respectfully disagree with president trump when he talks about energy independence, we have never been more energy independent in the history of america. we are doing 14 million barrels a day. when he talks about rebuilding industrial america, there was a manufacturing recession with him and now we are building more factories than ever, a georgia
9:20 am
battery plant, wisconsin semiconductor plant, chp plants in arizona. i think vice president harris has to make sure she gets out there to talk about all the things that they have done. they passed infrastructure, bipartisan infrastructure plan. president trump talked about infrastructure week -- never gotten past. i think they have a lot to run on and they need to run on it. >> kayleigh, as well, it's important to american workers to know that indeed there things are being made in this country and frankly that choking regulations on exports and the ease with which things can be imported, the hole to china has for us and much of the green industry touted by the democratic party, was a real impact. they made in the usa messaging trump is conveying could very well take them to the edge. >> i respectfully disagree that kamala harris has a lot to run on. if she wants the bottom to fall out of her polling, she should run on the things she has done. the trump campaign would be
9:21 am
wise, and every swing state, to put up ads, showing kamala harris casting the tie-breaking vote for the american rescue plan. inflation, when trump handed over the presidency, was 1.4%. american rescue plan goes into action. within a month, inflation goes up. you have a high of 9.1% under president biden. they should put up the tie-breaking vote she cast for each and every piece of the biden administration, and remind voters that just before the election when biden took over, wages were growing at the fastest pace in decades for black americans, latino americans, working-class voters. these are the types of things that need to be litigated and it's going to be difficult to do until that national microphone is given on a debate stage on september 10th. >> harris? >> i want to talk about what we saw in the primaries and what we are looking ahead at, and the kind of map that lay ahead of the policies aren't straits, particularly a policy toward our relationship with israel.
9:22 am
we put together a map today on "the faulkner focus close title. the michigan uncommitted vote is 100,000. colorado, not necessarily a battleground state but noncommitted delegate as they call it, 52,000. north carolina, battleground state potential: 88,000. no preference or in this case uncommitted voters. the numbers are huge. washingon state. this when i'm scratching my head about. 89,764 uncommitted. policy is going to matter to a lot of people across the country, and it could even affect that rob lowe. not just the electoral vote, but when people go to the polls and we add up the national vote with people. you've got those two categories. democrats say they can win the popular vote. it's all about the battleground and electoral college, but you've got a lot of people out there the democrats right now
9:23 am
cannot count on. >> especially washingon state where he used to live. that's an example of a super urban coast but a massively rural agricultural rest of the state. molly, i want to ask you about strategy which is the overconfidence. nothing is more detrimental to any type of competitor them overconfidence. the question remains in a way is it better to be coming from behind? you can apply this question to either candidate. >> both should be aware of being overconfident. according to real clear pol politics, only 25% of the country thinks we are moving in the right direction. those are abysmal numbers for the incumbent administration, and kamala harris is now the leader of that incumbent administration. the reason why people are not happy with the direction of the country, so many reasons why. the economy being a main one.

[crowd chanting] >> te -- ten's standoffs. that was just day 1 of the dnc.
9:29 am
we have three more days of this, potentially even more. we will cover it all. the demonstrators are angry and managed to breach the outer fencing around the convention. not just at that point but several other locations. despite the chaos outside, inside of the convention hall, president biden claimed that the demonstrators should be listened to. >> those protesters in the street have a point. a lot of innocent people are being killed on both sides. speak with a chaotic crowd joe biden thinks we should listen to includes terrorist sympathizers, hamas supporters. on fox cameras in chicago spotted multiple hamas flags waving. these people are carrying the flags of savages that invaded an ally of the united states, israel, on october 7th and killed more jews than we have seen since the hitler holocaust.
9:30 am
those are flags in chicago yesterday. when anti-israel protesters even professed his love for the terror group. >> you support hamas? >> every palestinian does, not just me. >> du support october 7th? >> yes i do what is wrong with october 7th? you tell me. >> women and children were murdered. >> what is this [bleep]? >> steve harrigan in chicago. steve. >> that breach of the outer security perimeter occurred yesterday just after 4:00 p.m. and it happened right behind me. they've artie taken some steps to change the situation here. they have added a second layer of this so-called unscalable funds and reinforced it with concrete blocks as well. that fence was knocked down in part with a sledgehammer, and chains were used to remove part of that fence. there were several dozen protesters moved away from the
9:31 am
main rounds that came here to try to break through the outer layer which they did for about a half an hour. then, riot police came in. they had helmets and wooden batons. holding the batons across their chest they really penned in many of those demonstrators arresting some of the ringleaders. at least four were arrested in that confrontation. overall, about 18 people have been arrested so far. security is saying no violence against property is going to be tolerated in chicago. >> there were people in the crowd who just wanted to have their voices heard, but again, when you have people who infiltrate a crowd and want to commit acts of violence, vandalism, we are going to stop them. >> demonstrators are promising more marches every night of the convention. >> something to keep our eye on. you are so great at doing this. what happens to those people after they get arrested? if you have to spend city resources trying to keep the
9:32 am
fence line up so protesters don't sledgehammer it down, maybe that is dollars that should be going to other things. who knows? steve harrigan, i know you will watch it all. emily? >> it's frightening, harris, it's frightening to see someone say there is nothing wrong with october 7th. i felt tellingly, one of the images that stuck in my brain from that footage is the hand of a presumably young woman with a scrunchie around her wrist as she is holding an anti-israel pro-hamas signed. it struck me as symbolic of the youth, the naivete, inexperience, and utter horror of the message. to hear my current my current commander in chief who is supposedly also in current negotiations with our allies in the middle east say they have a point, i was disheartened to hear that. i truly hope that the condemnation of this atrocity of october 7th and the
9:33 am
condemnation of what these people are standing for is a louder residence in the democratic party this week. >> robert, i want to ask you about something. richard fowler told me on set a little ago that it has been repeated that may be joe biden hopes to walk onto the stage last night, albeit it was very late, with the cease-fire to announce. i don't know how that would change. it certainly wouldn't help kamala harris other than to maybe hope this goes away, but does he have the kind of relationships? talk about the realities with this. >> harris, thanks for asking. first of all, i spoke to some secret service agentses last night in advance of today. i know there's been some bad actors at these protests, but for the most part, there was an expectation of 20,000 and i think there's only a few thousand here. some people thought there would
9:34 am
be over 100,000. the idea that it's been quite limited is a good thing. with respect to the cease-fire and the condemnations going on -- conversations going on between the middle east and the u.s. and the qataris, the most important thing is bringing the hostages back. that is front and center. >> as you know, more of them were found dead this week. i was talking about the conversations on the sidelines at the convention and joe biden potentially wanting to announce a cease-fire. that's what richard fowler told me is happening. i want to talk to more people about that, because that would really lean into the fact of questioning our support for israel at this point. they could have pushed for that. they could have done a whole lot of things. some of those signs say "killer, some of the signs say "killer kamala." no one has said "you've got to get kamala harris to say from
9:35 am
the stage here that it's hate speech, and it's got my name on it, or have somebody call it out. we had a former president shot in an assassination attempt. >> it would be nice to hear from kamala harris on the stage behind me "i condemn all anti-semitism." she has said it before, but this is a moment in this room where there are 30 uncommitted delegates. you mentioned the numbers last segment. say it to this room. see if she gets booed. to have a man who says "what is wrong with october 7th?" when more than 100 hostages were taken, women sexually assaulted. who knows where this little boy is now? he celebrated his first birthday in captivity. speak against these protesters. instead of going behind the scenes and meeting with -- call out anti-semitism because there is way too much of it in this country. she needs to lean on this. >> as horrible as it is to see
9:36 am
some of these protesters and their anti-semitism on their signs and whatnot, it is so much worse what is happening inside of the convention. you have harris and walz who really have left-wing policies that are at much more risk of negatively affecting the country. i think that's what most americans are concerned about. even as harris talks about how she is running this campaign of joy, animal seems like how the joker in the batman movies has that painted on smile that conceals a lot of hatred, animosity, which is what we have been seeing from the floor of the convention, which i think is worse than what is happening outside. having said that, it is great to see that the democrats have a border to protect their convention, that they have a robust police force. these are things that they do not seem willing to have for the rest of the country. >> that is interesting. kamala comes with a state with a tough fence line, california. made her views on the border aren't substantially supported by that.
9:37 am
it's been 30 days since kamala harris joined the democratic ticket. why hasn't she held a single formal sit down? a news conference? i'd like to take a moment to address my fellow veterans, because i know so many of you have served our country honorably. one of the benefits that we as a country give you as a veteran is the eligibility for a va loan, for up to 100 percent of your home■s value. if you need cash for your family call newdayusa. with automatic authority from the va we can say yes when banks say no. give us a call.

as unusual thigh bone fractures have occurred. don't let a break put you on a shelf. talk to your doctor about building new bone with evenity®! >> it is good to be with everyone this evening in this hall, and everyone at home. this is going to be a great w week. let us always remember: when we fight, we win. >> that was vice president kamala harris surprising her fellow democrats at the dnc. she has been able to get on that stage to accept the democratic nomination without a single news conference or interview. the liberal media doesn't seem
9:42 am
to care. they are praising her anyway. >> it does feel like something got uncorked, like there is a lot of pressure and all of a sudden everybody feels free to express their joy. >> not particularly subtle about how they want the message of this convention to be joy, but she does project joy. >> feeling like -- opens the bottle and everything is spilling out, and the everything here is relief and excitement. >> what i have felt since we landed in this wonderful, beautiful city: exuberance, joy. i have not seen so many democrats laugh, smile, people are literally dancing to the tunes of their own head. >> one thing was abundantly clear: the party is as excited and energized as it has been in a very long time. >> that's just a snapshot of the media's coverage of harris. a new study shows that they have given her a boost ev --
9:43 am
ever since she stepped into the race. even a delegate for kamala harris doesn't think she needs to answer to the american people on her policy stances. watch. >> vice president harris has been incredibly brave to roll out an ambitious economic agenda because we all know how this works: the more details you share, memory policies will get picked apart, but she is saying "i trust the american people, the journalists to explain his policies and our values to folks, and i think when that happens, it will be successful for democrats. these are very pro-worker, pro-middle-class policies people have been waiting for. >> robert wolf, it feels like a luxury that kamala harris and her team cannot trust the media with her policies. it seems president trump can't. just to dive into those numbers that we flush up on the screen for a moment. she has received a third more coverage in general than president trump, and her coverage is 84% more positive
9:44 am
than any other party nominee, major party nominee. 89% negative for donald trump. how is that fair to the american people? >> i don't know if it's fair or not, but if i was kamala harris, i would keep going with it if those facts are true. if she's getting incredible coverage, why not take the momentum and run. we know she has only been the nominee for a few weeks. she is getting back the coalition, reaching out her surrogates and donor base. i'm sure she's also doing a lot of policy work. i hope she does do some interviews. i'm with you guys. i actually think that this is a choice election and there is a stark choice between the two. i look forward to having her do -- i hope she does something on fox, but i hope she gets out there and takes these inte interviews, because i think it helps her case. >> we would love to have her, that's for sure. critics argue how is this not
9:45 am
election interference of the majority of americans getting their news are not subject to the truth or simply fair coverage? >> when the u.s. evaluates whether other countries have free and fair elections, one of the things they look at is whether they have a propaganda press environment. that's what we have in this country: a propaganda press. you don't need those numbers to know that that's what the problem is. it is one of the major problems. we are talking about millions upon millions of dollars of coverage that benefits democrats and harms republicans. it is not just bias: it is inventing stories, covering up stories, and it's dangerous for a republic that prides itself on self-government. >> we saw the harris campaign investing in faulty headlines. why do they need to? the media is on their side already. >> they were caught editing headlines. it popped up online. even the media outlets say "we didn't know," but they didn't push against it so i guess they were okay with it. look, i would want to ask or simply "when did you start
9:46 am
talking and listening to americans who were struggling under your economy and telling you that even though you love biden economics, many times on the trail, she has said that when biden was atop the ticket that sheet suddenly stop saying it now but that's policies are the same. when did you start talking and listening with them? if you think you can fix it after november, why haven't you gone directly to the present and said "hey, i could win. why don't we fix it now, and let's get some stuff rolling" to make you know i? her policies are the same as his. for the same reason kayleigh pointed out yesterday that 19 times on the party platform, released again, it still says "biden's second term." doesn't have her policies her name in it as atop the ticket. they are going to roll in under the guise of "i'm different from him," but there is no daylight between us. two opposites you can't hold in your brain at the same time. i don't know what game they're playing, but the american people need to see it. >> kayleigh. >> i want to go back to the
9:47 am
democrat who said "we trust the journalists to explain kamala's policies. i was a republican communicator at the republican national committee on a presidential campaign and was the press secretary for trump. i can't imagine one day in all of my years were any of us would have sat back and said "we trust the journalists to explain." when you are a republican, you pray the journalists will just report truth and do fact checks at a bare minimum, but we are n a different terrain. >> coming up, elon musk says he is ready to serve in a second trump administration. his idea for a potential role, next. there are so many tina feys i could be. so i hired body doubles. mountain climbing tina at a cabin. or tree climbing tina at a beach resort. nice! booking.com booking.yeah.
9:51 am
