people aren't up watching this live. they see the media conch instead. i don't think the messenger, as far as "the washington post" and cnn and all these outlets we talked about, everybody knows they are in the tank for democrats. i don't think it has an impact on the voters that matter who know that they are being fed exactly what hard core democrats want to be heard instead of what is actually happening. i think democrats are smart enough to do their own research and clips and make their own conclusion. i don't know if it will have that much impact. >> todd: joy has a book tour in point pleasant, new jersey. we love the point eleventh. >> carley: dana has ties to that book shop. kelly the woman who own is wonderful. you will have great time. go to the book shop and meet the great joe concha. joe, thank you so much for joining us. have great day. >> joe: thanks, guys. >> >> carley: "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ ♪ >> brian: all right, it is #:00

a.m. on the east coast. will cain is in for steve and according to ainsley he is in a good mood. >> ainsley: full of joy. >> brian: a lot of joy. it's august 22nd. the rest is different. this is "fox & friends." we are in new york. lawrence is in chicago, he claims. vice president kamala harris addresses the dnc tonight as she continues to push vibes over policy and more high profile democrats offer praise but few details. >> we need kamala harris, the president of joy. >> she is a leader of strength and wisdom and eloquence on policy. >> i think we owe it to the american people to tell them exactly what she would do as president. >> brian: former president donald trump will join "fox & friends" live this morning to react and that's the head shot he gave us. >> lawrence: that's right. and the dnc has increased security hasn't stopped the violence in chicago. talked to family members who shared their message to democrats, watch.

she will formally accept the democratic nomination. >> brian: griff jenkins is live in washington to preview. >> night three is in the history books. feel good vibe was once again the theme starting with president clinton. referring to himself as the man from hope arkansas calling v.p. harris the president of joy and praising president biden for stepping aside. >> something is really hard for a politician to do, he voluntarily gave up political power george washington knew that, and he did it. and it will enhance joe biden's legacy. >> griff: hot button to have was spotted on delegates wearing this pin labeling former speaker nancy pelosi as the godmother who honored biden and harris in her remarks. >> the inauguration of joe biden and kamala harris, we established one of the most successful presidencies of modern times. thank you, joe.

and i know that vice president harris is ready to take us to new heights. >> griff: meanwhile the godmother is down playing her role in pushing biden out and refuting concerns about harris having won a single delegate in the primary telling the "wall street journal," this quote: many of us concerned about the election wanted to have an open process. it was an open process. anyone could have gotten. in harris had the endorsement of the president and she politically astutely took advantage of it and shut down. not shut down but won the nomination. but anyone could have gotten it. then, the end of the night came coach. the governor tim walz formally accepting the nomination for vice president, talking football and freedom and taking swipes at trump while making a case for a harris presidency. >> we got a chance to make kamala harris the next president of the united states. we owe it to the american people to tell them exactly what she would do as president before we ask them for their votes.

>> >> griff: but, here's the thing he didn't tell us specifically what it is that harris will do as president and in case you haven't checked there is no policy page on their website. we will see what harris has to say tonight in the biggest speech of her life. guys? >> will: all right. thank you, griff. before we turn the party over to kamala harris and tim walz, the ancients of the democratic party got to have their time on the stage. really shocking to see how they leaned into their moment. first of all, bill clinton mispronouncing kamala harris' name. i have been told on very good authority that that is racist. that is not appropriate, president clinton. secondarily, i cannot believe they are leaning in to godmother. it's too perfect. the party run like the math i can't. she takes out joe biden, the sitting, i don't know, godfather to assert her power and pass onto the next lt.. it's insane they are leaning in to godmother. >> ainsley: hillary clinton talking about how old donald

trump is 78. he a few months younger because he just turned 78 two days ago. they are running on weird, they are running on joy. they are running on happy. bill clinton said one of the researchers harris is doing so well is that we are so happy. are you happy when you pay for your groceries? are you happy when you fill up your gas tank? are you happy when you try to buy your dream house right now? >> brian: those themes are true and i will add to some more. they do not know that joe biden is a democrat in the white house. and kamala harris is not familiar with the enact she is vice president. at least she hasn't told anyone in the building. they are running as if donald trump is still in the white house. and they are fighting for freedom. where did that come from? and instead of donald trump being a threat to democracy, which wasn't working according to the polls and they wasted millions of dollars pushing that down everybody's throats, now they are saying that donald trump is just -- he is a small man who will take away your freedom. they want to make him -- they

want to just make him crazy. they don't no longer say is he a threat to democracy. that's the whole barack obama yesterday saying you shouldn't fear him. he's a bully. and i'm saying to myself if you want to say that donald trump is not tough, it's a weird time to do it. one month ago he got shot in the head, stood up with blood on his face and yelled fight, fight, fight. he has also gone through four indictments, four week trial, weathered them all. got the nomination. was leading and knocked out their previous candidate. the sitting president of the united states to the point where you had to pick somebody else. and now you are telling us that guy is not tough enough, lawrence. >> lawrence: well, you know, i find the whole thing to be torturous. the fact that we have had to stay up all night to get some time of substance out of them. i almost feel like, guys that, they went into a room, all of them, from oprah to the former president, bill clinton. and they pole tested all these

phrases. no policy with it. just what feels good if you take the words and try to line them up with reality, oprah talked about preserving the constitution. you got democrats though want to pack the court. that's unconstitutional just on the sur falls of this. you got walz talking about we owe the american people to present our ideas. >> brian: that would be great. >> lawrence: we have been saying that for weeks now. yet, this morning we get up and there is still nothing listed on the website. so, i think that they feel that the american voters are clueless, and that it's all about donald trump. and that they can continue to push these false narratives. here is just a few of them for someone who wants to be the next vice president. watch. >> it's the fourth quarter. we're down a field goal. but we're on offense and we got

the ball. we are driving down the field. [cheers] and, boy, do we have the right team. but not everyone has that same sense of responsibility. take donald trump and j.d. vance. [boos] their project 2025 will make things much, much harder for people who are just trying to live their lives. when somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they're gonna use it. [cheers] and we know if these guys get back in the white house, they will start jacking up the cost on the middle class, they will we peel the affordable care act. [booze] >> they will gut social security and medicare. [boos] >> and they will ban abortion across this country. >> lawrence: unbelievable. they just make it up. completely make it up. this is one of the things that they do. whenever there's an opposing view or something that is a

narrative that is false, the first thing for a republican is disavow it. can you please get on record and disavow it? donald trump said i have nothing to do with it. i'm not going to put any of these proposals in. these are a list of the ideas that i stand on. and they are still running with it, guys. >> ainsley: when we go to the polls we are not voting because she is full of joy or because she is happy or because the republicans are weird. that whole messaging is very weird to me. we are voting on the issues. and when you look at kamala harris. she won't give an interview. so we don't know if she truly has flip flopped. we don't really know what she stands for. you can't find it on her website. she hasn't listed where she stands on any of these issues. but her campaign subordinates are out there saying no. shoe is changing her views. let's go through some of her policies. what they used to be and what her campaign is now saying it is. let's take energy, first. in 2019, she endorsed a nationwide ban on oil and gas

fracking. remember she said there is no question i'm in fair of banning fracking. but then this year, a few weeks ago, they're campaign says no, she doesn't support a total ban on fracking. >> brian: right now there is a nationwide ban, pause, on all l and g leases. so, right now, we're not exporting any more l and g. so, if she really believed that, she would turn around and tell joe biden to lift the ban. the pause. right now. and it hurts people like anyone in pennsylvania at all. >> will: and if you go through these all different positions she has taken in the past on the biggest issues when this documents actual substance. take a look at the economy. she supported green new deal in 2019, which included a federal jobs guarantee. now five years later she is saying she no longer supports. >> ainsley: even though she co-sponsored that bill. >> lawrence: unbelievable. then when you go to healthcare. >> this is a big one. she supported medicare for all. this includes illegals as well. this is what her position was

back in the day. and now her campaign says that she won't push for medicare for all. >> brian: right. >> lawrence: she co-sponsored the bill. >> ainsley: she co-sponsored that bill in 2019 and she wants to take away your private insurance company. >> brian: part of the reason voted the most liberal senator in 2019 because she co-sponsored that. very hard to find that study. thee basically tried to expunge the internet from it. must be one of those advertising firms reputation defender. >> ainsley: called meta. >> brian: calling over to her buddies who all love her. when it comes to immigration in 2019 she supported decriminalizing border crossings and she wanted everybody, by the way. to say have a shot at healthcare and medical benefits as well as school. in 2024. she is calling for a strong border. she is running ads on this and earn a pathway to citizenship. >> ainsley: wait, i thought the border was secure, brian. >> brian: she is running ads

using donald trump's wall in the back drop talking about how she has been tough as a prosecutor. >> ainsley: when it comes to crime in 2019, she ran as a progressive prosecutor, looking to end cash bail. and then this year she is saying she -- her campaign is, as of a few weeks ago, describing the campaign as pragmatic prosecutor taking on predators and fraud centers. >> will: then, when it comes to guns back in 2019, when she was running for president, she didn't get through the democratic primary but she took positions and designed to win a democratic primary. she said she is for mandatory buy back program for assault rifles. now running in a general election for president. the campaign is saying she won't push for a mandatory buy back program for assault rifles. we just walked through six different policies, lawrence. i think that the voter could be sitting here wondering what's real? what's fake? what am i to believe? who is kamala harris? you compound this with the fact she doesn't tell you today many specifics when it comes to policy and who she would be as president. so you, as the voter, have to

ask yourself who has she been in the past? when she was a senator, when she was a vice president, and even now as a candidate, when she steps out on a ledge and gives you some specifics, what do you get? you get price controls. you get 25% capital gains tax. 45% capital gains tax. taxing unrealized gains. this is far left stuff. you will get the kamala harris of 2019. >> brian: right. before, lawrence, i knew you talk to people on the south side. i have a will cain style deep thought. are you ready? >> will: i'm ready. written brian her party is where she was at in 2019. the pima audience believe where she was. but she realizes and david plouffe, practical people and axelrod whether you believe it or not doesn't matter. if you run on that, you are not going to get 10 votes. you have to change more towards the middle, toward the right in order to at least pretend to have a chance at winning a general election. what you ran on and bleefd in 2020.

the american people aren't buying in 2024. which should be scary where the voter is i think she will do what she said in 2019 and 2020. >> lawrence: i guess the final thing i would say before i move onto the south side piece is remember the last person that promised us that they were going to be a moderate. now bernie sanders and aoc tells us that he is the most progressive president in american history. >> brian: i know. >> lawrence: they can pretend all they want. don't take the bait like they did last night. nice joe, simple joe. cares about the working class joe. scranton joe, takes the amtrak to work. we know what he has done now. and so i just think that is a lot of sugar in this building and maybe that's normal. maybe that's what they do at conventions. maybe they say republicans do that. but, all i can say is life was different four years ago. i had the opportunity to talk with some folks in chicago. there is a lot of people that have been critical on the left about our pieces, about going to the south side. i have been doing this for years

now. talking about the violence and everything that's happening in chicago. and they want to know while the cavalry was sen. these are residents that have experienced the worst. losing family members, sons, daughters, husbands. here is just a look at it step up the security and enforcement. ngeghtd just for them. when they leave they will be gone. >> can we continue to vote for the same people this is how it's going to be? >> what would be your message to the leader in the democratic party i holy spirit my daughter prematurely. i would ask her to step her game up and please do more to keep

these criminals, these drug dealers and people who shoot guns off the street. >> they don't know what the saying is she is going to be a number and i'm going to be a number. >> lawrence: lost five family members. two sons were murdered, grandson was murdered. >> son-in-law was murdered and god son murdered. no help in chicago. keep bringing up fake numbers of crime going down donald trump is going to be on with us at 7:30. he might be adding somebody else -- a major endorsement could be 24 hours away.

i thought what was interesting we were watching his speech in pennsylvania he was out doors again. he was out there but bullet proof glass around him. >> ainsley: in north carolina,. >> brian: in north carolina, i should say. bullet proof glass around him. they have had that before when he was president. i remember seeing it. it's not that unusual. he opened up by inviting the police on stage once he got off he started giving a speech. then he found out somebody had passed out in the audience. he took a pause and did this. >> ainsley: the lady collapsed. so he left that enclosure, the bullet proof enclosure and he said a doctor, please. it's very hot here. apparently heat exhaustion the lady was standing up later holding a water bottle. >> he left the enclosure, the bullet proof glass. the security must have been having a coronary. >> stay in arizona and highlight issues when it comes to illegal immigration and kamala harris as border czar. as brian hinted at there could be as early as tomorrow a new endorsement for donald trump. reports are that r.f.k. jr. will

be looking to drop out of the race for president. his vice president's running mate nicole shanahan has teased something like that come. they would throw their weight, it seems behind donald trump. out of displeasure and, perhaps, some policy agreement but also out of displeasure for the way they have been handled within the democratic party. the way they have been boxed out. r.f.k. has been able to get on the ballot across the country. and i believe it's 25 states. >> lawrence: 25 states, yeah. >> will: he is on the ballot. at this point is he polling around 4%. 4 points, it will be interesting to see which way those 4 points swing. betting markets are suggesting it goes to donald trump. >> brian: if he just jumps out, that's one thing, lawrence. what if he comes out and says listen, anybody supporting me i need you to support trump, even though we disagree on some things, fundamentally we are the same. >> lawrence: this is happening for a reason. yes he agrees with the policies

of the former president. is he still a democrat at heart. the only reason this is happening is because they blocked him. i mean, they didn't want to give him a debate. he was saying if i lose, i lose. just give me the opportunity to share my message. don't try to turn my family against me. don't try to use the court system to block me from ballots. they just haven't been really nice to him. i got to be honest. i disagree with him on a lot of policy distances. i that's what he has been saying from the very beginning, at least give me the opportunity to share my belief system. >> ainsley: he has the right to do it. he is running for president. he should be on the ballots. i understand there are different rules and those rules need to be followed. these democrats, we have seen them block him out and we have seen what they have tried to do donald trump arresting him, the mugshot. they are going to sentence him coming up soon. and r.f.k. jr. said this about kamala. i think it was a coronation. it's not democracy. nobody voted.

who chose kamala? it wasn't voters. she went in four weeks from being the worst liability for the democratic party to the second coming of christ. without giving one interview. without showing up for a debate. without a single policy that anyone thinks isn't ridiculous. this is not democracy. >> will: rachel campos-duffy is coming up later in the program. she sat down with r.f.k. jr. on if, in fact, he does endorse donald trump. what kind of position within the administration would he be interested in? that's coming up at 7:00 a.m. eastern time. we have a big show. don't go anywhere. we have donald trump coming up at 7:30 a.m. eastern time. we have a deeper ghif that interview lawrence conducted in chicago with people on the southside. all of that on today's program. >> lawrence: i just want to know where the brian kilmeade wall is. i saw the rachel wall with r.f.k. i sought donald trump wall. he gets jealous about those things. >> brian: you mean promos? >> lawrence: that's right. >> brian: i usually bring it up at 9:01 in our meetings. >> will: picture of you, gigantic head.

>> brian: no neck. >> ainsley: he says he is the face of the show. >> brian: no, no. lawrence says that. >> lawrence: it's true. i'm okay with it, i accepted it. >> brian: he used to have a show brian kilmeade and friends. his radio show used to be brian kilmeade and friends. took away the friends. he got rid of his friends. >> will: this is all headed toward here. >> ainsley: brian kilmeade show. >> brian: obviously i have no friends. case in point right here. by the way her approval ratings a year ago today, 32%. ask yourself what changed? joe biden dropped out, that's what changed. and if you want to know how to your point, lawrence, how liberal that he governed and how progressive that he ruled, joe biden, the last person to throw him overboard was the squad and bernie sanders. they stood by him, i think, only jill stood by them more. so why would that be? because he is one -- because he governed net h. not like he said he would when you but like they

wanted him. to say. >> lawrence: that's right. >> will: we have another wild story out of new jersey. police are searching for a woman who nearly lost her hand by trying to pet a 500-pound tiger inside a zoo enclosure. she climbed over a wooden fence and tried to hand feed that bengal tiger. even sticking her arm through a wire barrier. the titler lunges at her and she is able to pull her arm away just in time. here's a look at a sign posted outside the tiger enclosure at the zoo bridgeton. it makes it clear as though a sign were necessary. that climbing any zoo fence is against the law and i would presume intuitively dangerous. the woman seemed to act like she was at a petting zoo. officials say she attempted to do the same thing at nearby bear exhibit. asking for it. she was stopped by other visitors. police are asking anyone who knows the woman to contact them. >> ainsley: she is just so casual when she does this. like, when she turned her back to the tiger, first of all, you would never do that but she

turned her back to the tiger not thinking that he could lunge at her from behind. >> will: price are searching for her. >> lawrence: i think real marriage material right here. what a boss. it's in her blood. >> brian: tiger was hungry, either let somebody else feed them or hop the fence and jump in. who hasn't thought about this. >> will: this is darwinism. >> brian: natural selection. >> ainsley: 23 minutes after the top of the hour. trump is heading to arizona to the border today, as kamala harris pivots on her migrant crisis. sheriff mark daniels will join trump when he visits today. that's next. ♪

>> brian: all right, today. former president trump is set to visit arizona's southern border in the state's tucson sector where illegal migrant encounters skyrocketed nearly under 10% under the biden administration. next guest leading a tour in co-economy county arizona sheriff marc dann else in. mark is with us now. sheriff, great to see you. first off. describe. >> good to see you, brian did it

help you in the tucson sector. >> it didn't help in the tucson sector. the give-offs. run up to law enforcement, help me here is my asylum claim. we deal with the got-aways. part of that the 2 million phenomenal number really know what is is happening. we are part of that. that has not changed. to put it in perspective with cochise county which i'm going to share with donald trump today. 3762 arrests in my jail in a little over 31 months. people come to the country, they have smuggled, they have committed murder. almost 20 murders in my county alone in those 31 months. our quality of life has been fractured by it as a result of this administration. >> brian: the border crossers since the numbers are down, has crime gone down? >> no. we're on track to meet last year if not beat it again. i just got these stats yesterday president trump visit. got-aways are something the cartels are addressing. people high risk. that have been deported.

high criminal records country of interest. they are being smuggled by the cartels at high prices into this country. >> brian: all right. just take look at these numbers right now. these numbers don't lie, no one challenges them and they are stunning, from february of 2021 to you'll of 2024, just a few weeks ago, the numbers are over a million. 1.2 million. as we look at the border crossers between 2017 and 2021 we had a different president. the number was 246 now. that is an increase of 392%. and that is all because policies change and other policies just evaporated. but, the vice president, who was the border czar, says she is tough on the border and she is rolling in an ad to back it up. watch. >> as president, she will hire thousands more border agents and crack down on fentanyl and human trafficking. fixing the border is tough. so is kamala harris. >> brian: do you believe that?

>> i'm sorry, brian, i missed it. >> brian: do you believe she will do that? she is going to crack down on the border and hire thousands more border crossers and crack down on crime at the border? >> i don't. let's look at three and a half years. i mean, where has she been? she has not accepted the title i'm the border czar that's even a question now. give me break. she took it three and a half years ago. her past is her future. and you look at president trump who for four years was very strong on engagement and prioritization on our southern border. she has not done all three of those. in fact, we have reached out for a message to her to come visit us at the border and now we have heard no commitments from her. again, i don't see any changes. something else, brian, i think is important. when president trump was in office, there were less than 2 million fentanyl pills in arizona seized. last year, 111 million. she has failed to address the

border. >> brian: good luck with your tour with the former president who wants to be the next president. i know will make it a priority if he does win. sheriff dannels, thank you so much appreciate it? >> thank you, brian. >> brian: increased security isn't strong violence across chicago. lawrence talked to family members of victims who have a message for democrats. >> what have you done successfully to come and exchange it before the election? >> give something about getting drug dealers off the street. killers off the street just to get the votes. in all actuality, as time passes by, they will be forgotten. ♪ be connected? for me, cosentyx works on both. cosentyx helps real people find clear skin. and in psoriatic arthritis, can mean less joint pain, and help stop further joint damage. serious allergic reactions, severe skin reactions that look like eczema, and increased risk of infections some fatal have occurred. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine or plan to

certain extent. they would care more if they was here. >> i know like the leaders is nothing kim foxx, gah. >> lawrence: let's talk about that. >> she was not playing. she didn't want no plea agreements no. bargains, no nothing. we had all the evidence. >> it's different now? >> yeah. high profile case and was more important than my son's case. she took the people off my son's case and put them on jussie smollett's case. the young man who killed my son they gave him a plea agreement. >> lawrence: there is a big convention the democratic national convention. how does it make you feel they decided to step up the security and enforcement for one week? >> just for them. when they leave, they will be gone. >> lawrence: can we continue to afford to vote for the same people if this is how it's going to be? >> i'm a democrat, right?

>> lawrence: yeah. >> i don't think i want to vote for kamala that easy and i'm a democrat. >> lawrence: why is that? do you feel like she has released a plan to fix the community or anything like that? >> not at all she hasn't spoken about things she wants to do as far as making things better. >> lawrence: what would be your message to the leaders in the democratic party? >> to actually do something for the community and not just speak on it. >> our 8-year-old lost his mom. i lost my daughter prematurely. so i would actually, you know, ask for her to step her game up and please do more to keep these criminals, these drug dealers and people that shoot guns off the street. get them off the street and keep them off the street. >> he know what the saying is until they have to -- go through that, we will always be a black and white. she is going to be a number and i'm going to be a number.

and that's not fair. >> lawrence: it's a general thing whether it was the victims that we had earlier on the week or these families that we're talking to that their kids are just numbers that have been normalized. we get the headlines every week five people killed. that's not normal in a civil society in america that five people are just killed over the weekend. but it's become the norm in chicago, guys. >> will: lawrence, i would love to ask you, the promises and the failed promises of the democratic party for the black community is a half century project. and, yet, continues to win the vote of the black community. as you sit there and you talk to those people in chicago. and they lay out to you not just their problems but their lives like this, what could any politician come in and do like literally do not promise but say the young man said i'm a democrat but i'm not going to vote for them because they're not doing anything for the community. what do they want done for the community? >> well, i think they want the pain to end.

and i think, you know, there has been this narrative that the people within the community are antipolice. they are anticorruption. they are not anti-cop. and i think if any candidate, first of all, will, to your point, and we heard this in the barbershop yesterday, they want to see the candidates as well. there is this notion within black america, especially in the community, that the republicans don't get them, bowers they don't see them and i do think there is truth to that critique don't see the same language. deep down in the core black america. the value system is pretty much conservative. politicians say look, anticorruption. make sure you have good cops that walk the beat every single day in your community. and keep your family safe. bring jobs back to your community, have a message of school choice. i don't mean just a talking point of school choice, but exactly what does school choice

mean? meaning you don't have to go to a failing school in your zip code. your kids deserve better. they deserve to read. i think if they present that message. there's a real shot. >> ainsley: money follows the kids. >> brian: ymca in these areas, too. you provide security. you provide outlets and increase the school competition. allow them to go elsewhere for failing schools that would be a great foundation. >> ainsley: shouldn't be the norm this mom says every time i hear a gunshot i think of my children. regular thick in her neighborhood. >> lawrence: that's right. >> brian: a lot of people never hear a gunshot in country. >> will: good job, lawrence. >> get more of that later. meanwhile, former president donald trump will join "fox & friends" live. we will play some of that back for him. >> will: harley-davidson slamming the brakes on dei policies after outrage from bikers. ♪

prevent migrants from getting denied based on immigration status if it passes in the state senate. now to shocking reaction, from our commerce secretary after learning about yesterday's major jobs report revision. watch this. >> today the bureau of labor saying more than 800,000 fewer jobs were actually created than initially reported. do you potentially think this new numbers could be a liability for this campaign? >> no. when i hear that, first of all, i don't believe it. because i have never heard donald trump say anything truthful. >> it is though from the bureau of labor. >> i don't -- i don't -- i'm not familiar with that. >> ainsley: it's the largest correction to job numbers since 2009. and those are your headlines. >> will: that truly is a stunning clip. harley-davidson largest company to drop dei initiatives after pressure from long time loyal bikers. the company saying quote as a consumer brand growing the sport

of motorcycling and maintaining our lyle riding community. the board of directors still silent on the future and fate of the company's, quote. woke ceo and chairman. mary katharine ham joins us now. mary katharine, good to see you this morning. this is a pretty stunning moment for bikers saying this is not the brand we have been devoted to half a century or more. what happened to harley davidson. >> if you have to say to your customer what we are going to fawction on is motorcycles. that seems you have made a bad turn if you have to he radio mind them of that. that's what a lot of cheese companies do they get so caught up. in this case a german born ceo head of puma and did a turn around there to his credit. who is now the head of this 120-year-old brand, about america and open roads and motorcycles. and it -- when he calls himself in a controversial clip, i believe in 2020 the tele van of sustainability, meaning he is

going to be as extreme as possible in his environmental edicts for this company, it makes people think like maybe he is not so in to the customer base that he is serving. maybe he doesn't understand who he is selling motorcycles to. and maybe he is not that interested in selling motorcycles, right? i think the board should be concerned about that part. because, when you start alienating the people who have built your brand, even if you are doing it for what you think is a good reason, it will not go well for you. please see bud light. >> will: harley-davidson saying since we are not doing dei. we stopped in april. this all goes back to a document they put out in 2022 where they said they were going to implement things like sponsor trainings and workshops focused on dei. nearly 1500 employees participated in inclusion and belonging workshop and employees participated in a summit held by, quote: white men as full diversity partners. it is interesting, as you point out, to have somebody in charge who doesn't fundamentally seem

to understand a brand that is quintessentially american. like this is not europe. and this is not -- by the way, unfortunately though. dei is kind of american and we exported it across the world, but this is not harley davidson. >> yeah. look, it may indeed be a mismatch. i think he has made some improvements. when you start talking about those kind of work shoppes and that is your sort of before doing your job no the reason you are here is to sell motorcycles. a lot of these companies have gotten backlash such that finally they are sort of being bullied into being neutral like bullied into doing your actual job enough pain from enough boycotts and enough folks have spoken out at this point for several companies hey, maybe we should just get back to the basics. that is good for everyone. that's good for the customers and good for the company. i wonder though if a guy who sold himself this way and said these controversial things in the past can really let go of this philosophy and stick to the

motorcycles. >> will: need to for harley davidson. mary katharine. thank you for joining us this morning. don't move, donald trump joins "fox & friends" live. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ when the sawdust settles and the engine finally roars the thing you care about most is a job well done. ♪ but when you get your tools from harbor freight something about the job feels a little different - your wallet. because we believe no matter what you're working on you need high quality tools at a great price. and that's what we're all about. ♪ whatever you do,
