[chanting trump] >> steve: he was on gutfeld. we have all the highlights from his in studio appearance on fox news. >> todd: plus a "fox & friends" exclusive. i went to the battleground state of pennsylvania speaking with energy workers worried about kamala harris and her fracking flip-flops. >> out here this is the way we feed our families. >> there is tens of thousands of us, probably more than that that we will all be standing the spread line i'm my eggs are answer to this problem.

about it too much lately. [laughter] >> i always said golf is a very dangerous game. actually the secret service did a great job. they saw the barrel of a gun, big gun. >> greg: yeah. >> came out through bushes and how many people would see that, he really was very exceptional to have done it. and we have been going through a lot of it. we're getting very good at it, but i don't want to say that too loudly because we don't want to bring any jinxes along, tyrus. it's always a consequential president that gets shot at. and, fortunately so far i have been very lucky. i thought this was a tremendous debate. i had people telling me that i'm wrong about things where i'm totally right. i was right about just about all of that stuff that they were correcting me. and i think my only regret is that i wanted to be elegant and i didn't want to go after the anchors. i wish i did in a way. >> tyrus: that's our job.

>> are there aliens in area 51. [applause] >> it's a funny thing i think that might be a question that i get more than any question. [laughter] >> it is the craziest thing. they were in the oval office, three or four pilots. these are not people that make up stories. they said all i know, sir, there was a round object going four times faster than my f-22 very fast plane. >> if you are going to sit in that chair and doing the tyrus experience you have to do it right you are the people's champion. >> oh, wow. [cheers] >> brian: former president donald trump -- that's so great. oh, okay. i'm going to react to this. [laughter] >> ainsley: greg gutfeld opened the show making fun of the two of you basically in the first two minutes. sorry, crowd, we're not going to be able to do what we had scheduled with which announce steve doocy's next cookbook but

you're going to get it for free, it's called cooking with crisco. >> steve: you know what, crisco, if you are making. >> brian: animal fat. >> steve: no, it's actually a vegetable fat. >> brian: fat is in vegetables. >> steve: when you are making chocolate chip cookies crisco makes the best one. >> brian: think it's great looking at it you shouldn't eat it. you got see his personality last night. playing off people that don't hate him. just -- i need -- i want to hear what you have to say rather than i am going to condemn you for saying it. >> lawrence: it's the celebrity in him. people liked before he got into politics. suddenly they thought it disappeared when he decided he was going to run for office. >> ainsley: i love the format of this. greg has a panel of four people he talks with. for donald trump to go into a different atmosphere and be a part of that was really cool.

did the audience know that donald trump was going to be the guest? >> brian: that's a great question. >> ainsley: i'm sure they were totally surprised. >> steve: always security precautions when you go into any late night show in new york city. what is different yesterday, there were bike racks, bike fences all around this building for the last 36 hours. which. >> lawrence: they didn't know is what the producers is telling us. >> ainsley: they didn't know. >> lawrence: i have seen it depicted as there is a surprised guest. >> brian: imagine the disappointment because jamie lissow come on but you are stuck with president trump. >> steve: if you are in new york city a lot and see all those bike racks you know there is a very powerful person in that building. >> brian: or a lot of bicycles. >> steve: indeed. >> ainsley: he did praise the secret service a lot last night on greg's show and at the rally. he taped that before the rally so came -- was in the city for greg gutfeld show in this building and went out to long island. you went out there, too, to the

nassau coliseum. >> brian: i haven't been there since the islanders played in there. >> brian: how many can be in there. >> brian: 16,000. not one i talked to got in line before. most of them were day the day before or in the morning they allowed them in. then 10:00 was the latest. i looked out and provided the video. there was 5,000 at minimum outside that couldn't get in watching on flat screens. think about that, you wait 8 hours, can't get in, you morted in a. you sit there indian style or native american style. >> ainsley: crisscross apple sauce. >> brian: crisscross, apple sauce? what, am i 9? >> steve: crisco flashback. >> brian: don't eat it, it's good. hthat's why he think he will win new york. you will find out if anybody was bbored or left early. >> steve: that was a tease. brook joins us.

>> brooke: good morning, former president trump filling up the nassau coliseum area had been trending truck the last few years. roughly 16,000 supporters lining up to secure a spot. trump a native new yorker is hoping to put the deep blue state in play in november. >> i can win new york and we can win new york. we're going to win new york. [cheers] and if you vote for me, i'm going to reduce your taxes, reduce your crime, and reduce your levels of stress. vote for donald trump. what the hell do you have to lose? what do you have to lose? [cheers and applause] >> brooke: trump touting support from the teamster's union after they didn't endorse either candidate. the poll shows overwhelming support for trump among the union's rank and file. before trump took the stage he met with an 8-year-old supporter who is battling a rare brain disease. trump invited the young supporter to the rally v.i.p.

guest and gave him a shout-out during the past event. i love that story. guys? >> steve: that is great. thank you very much, brooke, a young liam, his mother said to the "new york post" and they have got a great story about this today. said that liam has been a big trump fan since he was 18 months old. >> ainsley: remember we aired the video of liam. his mom -- open this package, son. he opened it. it was his eighth birthday. it was a letter from donald trump. he was happy and moved to tears. i can't read this, momma, will you read it to me. he just was crying. he has some sort of a rare brain disorder and doctors told him he would never walk. but, look at him. and now is he back stage v.i.p. meeting donald trump, his hero. >> brian: right. so, yesterday, i mean, i just think about the day he h i don't know how he got up and at one point, he does gutfeld, he dolls stuff in the morning. then he does the bitcoin makes history. purchase of a hundred hamburgers

using bitcoin. he hops in a car. people paid vips must have taken 200 pictures right before back stage. i talked to him for 10 minutes air it on saturday. then he goes out and gives an hour and a half speech afterwards and who knows what he did on the way home and in between he does gutfeld. >> ainsley: great messages for new york. he is going to clean up the subways. >> brian: look at that. >> ainsley: fix the new york bail policies. cashless bail a disaster. you kill someone and out on the streets two hours later. he talked about the iran hacking that we will get into later in the show e says he wants to make ground zero a national monument and protect and maintain it by the u.s. government e talked about the assassination attempts, and he said he will be the first republican candidate to win new york state in 40 years. he has a good shot out there on long island. >> steve: right. >> ainsley: it's the city. >> lawrence: i don't know what is going to happen in this election. look at some of the polling him being within 5 points of new york. i think it's still stunning. i think there is going to be

regret from the democrats locking him in new york city because he has hosted more events in new york than kamala harris or joe biden did at the time. >> brian: yeah. well against biden he was getting close. especially you stuck him in with the trial. >> steve: look at the shear numbers in new york, the state, it's random. the city is super blue. >> lawrence: 100 percent. >> steve: obviously. a republican has not won the state for a very long time. donald trump showed up there yesterday in a very friendly part of new york state for two reasons. one, of course, to push his campaign. and it's super popular out across the country. but the other thing is essentially he could give help to a number of republican lawmakers in congress, get them reelected or elected because he knows this time out that he has got to have a republican house to get anything done. and that's one of the reasons he was there. >> brian: right. so i had a chance to talk to the real goers. i was stunned at the debate.

i find out so many people get bored and leave early. i wanted to find out the real story. i went into the stands before he come up. and find out how people felt about being there and were they born. >> brian: why was it important to be here tonight. >> to support our country. change things, make things great again. >> support the candidate. going to see our values, he is going to respect americans. listen to americans and want to keep us safe. it's important for us astins to go out there and vote. >> we keep hearing about his rallies. we heard at the debate that people get bored and leave early. are you going to get bored and leave early? >> no. i'm not leaving early, no. >> brian: describe the atmosphere? >> it's electric. >> brian: what's different in the last three years. >> mayonnaise used to cost me 2.99 a jar now it's 7.49. >> brian: can he win new york. >> anything is possible. you got believe. >> steve: obviously, great

soundbites. brian, you didn't leave early, did you? >> brian: i did. >> ainsley: you had a good reason you have to get at 2:00. >> brian: i stayed 40 minutes, it was rolling. he stepped out there. had that runway. it was like the beginning of a wwe fight or when tyson walked out like the minute he stepped out i didn't see him. but someone saw him and the place starts erupting. i would be shocked if he didn't say that this was one of the best appearances he had. his speech was crisp. right to the point. on message. appealing to the new york issues as well as the national issues and responding to the news of the assassination, so he was boom boom boom boom boom. no protective glass. two teleprompters which were advisers, not verbatims. this place was mobbed. and i just think the cops did an incredible job. commissioner ryder, bruce blakeman. they probably could have used more magna tom terse. but people were so patient to get in. when i saw i thought there is no

way people are getting in. the footage i should have sent in earlier. i taped all these people on the outside. he says look at the crowds on the outside. i never see the crowds. i want everyone to see huge crowds. >> ainsley: look at that, that's brian's video. only two people who left early brian kilmeade who had to get up early. topless woman flashed the entire crowd. three people left early. they escorted her out. >> brian: two of what? >> ainsley: flashers. >> steve: two people who did just that. >> ainsley: you should have stayed. you wouldn't have gotten a show. >> brian: i looked at the program that was wasn't on it. >> steve: here was a news flash last night bret baier released brand new polls, fox news polls and it goes to show just how close it is right now. those are the national polls with registered voters. keep in mind margin of error of 3 points. kamala harris is currently leading donald trump coast to

coast by 2 points. that's a 3 point shift since august from trump to harris. but, when you look at the battleground state. >> ainsley: the ones that really matter. states that matter. >> steve: these are important. you see that kamala harris is trableg trump by 2. but then again, the margin -- it's way within the margin of error. the margin of error is between 4 and 6 in that particular -- because it is so wide. >> lawrence: it just tells the story. it wasn't just our polling, gallup came out with polling that donald trump's favorability is up by 5 points. 46% to now kamala harris 44%. so when it comes to the states, ainsley, we go back and forth like who is going to win this thing because it's so close. you want -- you care about the battleground states and you care about the electoral college though. popular vote, democrats always advantage for them. when it comes to the electoral college and the states that matter, i think that's some good news for the former president.

>> ainsley: we were talking about this yesterday, show most of the polls donald trump is up with the electoral college. >> brian: harris is doing better than biden. harris is doing better than biden with hispanics, and doing better than biden with independents. so, those areas which seems to be more challenging. trump is doing better on immigration by double digits as by 7. the economy by just 5. guns by 1. taxes are even which i find interesting. healthcare, on abortion, on transgender genders you can have that. harris by 16. climate change by 17. but transgender and climate change, you are not going to see them talking about that because america has moved on. >> ainsley: trump wins with regularly attended worship goers, white men with no college degrees, rural voters, men in general, she does better with the black voters, urban voters, under age 30 and voters 65-plus. college graduates and women. >> steve: there is an absolute

blizzard of polls out today. the "new york times" just released a poll. "new york times," philly, and siena college. it shows that the race is dead locked. in pennsylvania, harris is up by 4, they say. there's another poll from morning consult and we know that donald trump's strong suit is the economy. he is at 46%. she is now tied with him at 46%. it just goes to show that you apparently people feel and brian brought up a point. she is doing better than joe biden did. so many people have compared her to joe biden, they just like her better than him and now, according to that poll, they are tied. but it's all a coin toss. it is virtually deadlocked across the board. >> lawrence: one of the issues that separates the candidates is fracking. and kamala harris has changed her position. she was against fracking and now apparently she is for frac. i had the opportunity to go talk with some people that are in the industry.

do they buy it. ohio it would impact them if kamala harris. >> brian: where did you go? >> lawrence: i went to pennsylvania. these are some of the folks i spoke with yesterday. >> there is not a whole lot in the world right now that doesn't rely on petroleum. everything that we are wearing, glasses, plastics, that's aside from trucking and fuel. all those other things. that everybody thinks about on the general scheme. tens of thousands of that, probably more than that we will all be standing in the bread line if you stand in the oil field all my eggs are in basket. all these guys in the oil field. >> lawrence: if kamala harris is president she wants position against fracking and now she is for fracking. do you believe her, a, and what do you think a presidency would be like under her? >> i don't believe that we have seen waffling effect. the contradictions there. we're obviously paying very close attention to that, you know, the sentiment around this

whole region is nobody believes that. >> lawrence: i mean we are going to air the full package later on. i think the killer thing that i learned, this used to be blue. all democrat, these guys. >> brian: what town were you in. >> lawrence: i forgot the town we were in. but it just used to be, you know, that working class strong deep blue they all changed because of the issue. one guy told me look, this is not a democrat or republican issue. i can't provide for my family if they get elected. and i think that's the big take away. >> brian: you are not going to ban testimony frac something over. not going to do it. deny leases, you delay and you pause. right now there is a pause of all lng leases. governor shapiro doesn't want to talk about it because it's killing their state. they are going to think climate first instead of how do we do this thing responsibly. fracers do getting better and better at it. you expand the

federal land and say you can't drill on it. shrink the amount of leases you do or slow walk the leases. that's a limiting, which is also damaging. >> ainsley: i love these guys. that's our bread and butter. they produce everything for us. >> our cars move because of them, even electric trigger cars move because of them. electricity produced by coal. >> brian: 95% of the world uses fossil fuels. all this stuff about solar panels and stuff. unless you are going to go outright and mine places like minnesota and nevada, you can't do it unless you want to depend on china. that point has got to be made. every person who has a electric car. i understand, i appreciate that just know that we are helping china. they got the rare earth and we won't use ours because it's not environmentally sensitive enough. including in this place called minnesota where i think a governor is running for vice president. >> steve: that's right. so ultimately, it's interesting. and we saw that number earlier

that the teamsters decided not to endorse anybody. do you know one of the things because she actually is trailing him and is he way up at 60% and she is at 35% with that poll. with the teamsters. who do you like? but, ultimately. one of the things the teamsters, just like the frackers like. donald trump's suggestion no tax on overtime. those guys all make a ton of overtime and that's one of the reasons they like. >> lawrence: they already work 12 hour shifts. they work 29 days straight. we will talk about -- we will show the full package later on. but do you realize what you are going to do to these guys? these guys that many of them go to cleaning. they decid -- college.working ch trade school and provide for their family. there is a lot of people once were part of the criminal justice system and cleaned up their act decided they are going to be passionate society. all of that goes away with a new administration. >> ainsley: kamala harris wants to pay for people to go cleaning and she'll be asking some of

these individuals or all of these individuals that didn't go college to pay for other people's college. >> lawrence: unbelievable. >> steve: more on politics throughout the day. something like out of a movie. another way of device explosions and israel targets hezbollah terrorist suspects. an inside look how the real life operation got started. and then started blowing up. ♪ gum problems could be the start of a domino effect parodontax active gum repair breath freshener clinically proven to help reverse the 4 signs of early gum disease a toothpaste from parodontax, the gum experts. there are many ways to deliver a shipment. at old dominion freight line, we deliver them this way. this way uses technology and goes the extra mile to do things the right way. the delivering promises on time, every time, way.

brian fox news alert. assassination plot against benjamin netanyahu filed earlier this morning. israeli man recruited by iran was charged. mike tobin on the ground in tel aviv with the latest on that: israel and hezbollah located in lebanon. mike? >> mike: and, brian, the head of hefers' executive council says that israel is in for, quote, a special punishment. this morning seems israel is mostly on the offer. israeli air force hit several targets in southern lebanon today including what is described as a weapons storage facility, that follow as two day flurry of violent espionage with sabotaged electron anybodies, walkie talks, solar equipment all exploded. 21 people killed and more than 3,000 injured. in the panic and paranoia explosive device found in the

university of beirut hospital. placed into a crater and exploded. it all comes after israel's security cabinet officially included the northern front as one of the goals in this war. the defense minister promised the war is entering a new phase. >> the center of gravity is moving to the north meaning we are diverting forces, resources, energy towards the north. we have not forgotten the hostages and we have not forgotten our tasks in the south. this is our duty and we are performing it at the same time. >> more dramatic developments israeli businessman has been indicted and accused of working with iran in an assassination plot against top israeli officials. 73-year-old mahmoud had been living in turkey came in contact with iranian businessman in april of 2024. he was offered various tasks by iranian operatives included photographing crowded locations and ultimately assassination plot for benjamin netanyahu, defense min minute gallant.

he made an area in judgment and he has been cooperating with israeli authorities. >> brian: wow, chaos everywhere. thank you so much. appreciate it. i want to get more analysis on this. bring in former cia covert operator himself mike baker. mike, talk about how they infiltrated the supply chains to put some explosives in those beepers, the walkie-talkies, the solar panels, in order to detonate these explosions it's incredible story and sophisticated operation. the heavy lift here is not so of the mechanics of implanting explosive materials into those devices, it's getting your hands on those devices before the final shipment into lebanon. so, the operation in a sense was to identify that they -- first, they had a need or a desire to dumb down their communications. hassan nasrallah the head of hezbollah had instructed

hezbollah put away your cell phones. destroy them. put them in a lockbox. get rid of them balls. >> fear that the idf, shin bet and my sad had infiltrated their cell phones. he said we have to dumb down this thing. said we got to go to pagers, handheld radios and walkie-talkies. the operation to see that, understand that that's where they were going, develop sources who were able to assist, dangle opportunity in front of them for them to get this gear and then get your hands on it, right, to do the implants and to create the opportunity to remote detonate. that's an amazing operation. >> brian: mike, you know, this al-qaeda stopped using cell phones when it was revealed we were listening in on their calls. they usually use human cure years. hezbollah said stop using cell phone, we will use beepers, now what they do a cup and a string?

>> well, and that's part of the reason why this is such an important operation. because the further they dumb it down, the more ininitiate hezbollah comes. paranoia who can i trust? that's always a useful thing, whether you are talk about hezbollah, hamas, mexican cartel, in the old days the ira. if you get them looking inwards, right, and thinking i can't trust you. i can't trust you. suddenly things start to bind up and they are not operationally effective. that's very important. where do they go dumbing it down from this point is what you pointed out. handwritten notes, talking face to face. look, i'm only going to trust handing a message to my cousin. i know him and i know i can trust him. that's how it works. this is, again, parts -- it works on several levels, right? it's not just about injuring or killing hezbollah fighters. it's got a bigger purpose. the bigger purpose is going to

attack hezbollah get them when there is chaos and disarray and distrust. now i understand cigarette fighters over beirut. idf jet fighters. people say why would you open up a second front they know the longer you wait the more powerful hezbollah is going to get because iran is not going to stop supplying them. it's a very tenuous time in the middle east. thanks so much, mike baker. appreciate it. >> take care, man. >> brian: meanwhile, harris, the vice president, tries to flip the script on fracking, but do energy workers believe her? lawrence went to pennsylvania yesterday to find out in a "fox & friends" exclusive. >> they are going to have even more regulation. they are going to have people that let -- banks aren't going to want to invest. >> you have who look at going overseas. going south, south america going over to the middle east. only shingrix is proven over 90% effective. shingrix is a vaccine used to prevent shingles in adults 50 years and older. shingrix does not protect everyone

about your company and what your employees do. >> i would tell you the greatest thing about this industry, plain and simple is you can be an 18-year-old kid. you don't have to go to college. year 1 you are going to make 60 to $70,000. >> to come into the energy industry, to be able to provide for their family and change the trajectory of their family and be the one that was able to do it. i think that's really important and something that gets overshadowed. >> lawrence: talk with the guys that do this job every single day. >> lawrence: how did you start doing this job? >> i broke out in 2017, oil field was the perfected fit for me. >> you have made a good living, too? >> yes. yes. primary source of income for my family. >> lawrence: so how long have you been doing this? >> i have been doing it for about three years i have been in the oil field. >> lawrence: it's a good living for your family? >> of course, yes, sir. of course. >> lawrence: kamala harris is the vice president. once against fracking. >> there no question i'm in favor of banning frac. >> lawrence: she says she is for

fracking do you believe her. >> no. she is out there saying whatever she can to make people try to swing her way, so she can try to get the presidency. >> the sentiment around this whole region is nobody believes that. >> i don't believe anybody in that administration. >> lawrence: what do you believe happens if she becomes the president? >> you're going to have even more regulation. you are going to have people banks aren't going to want to invest. you will see people move out of the areas where the drilling and gas is. >> lawrence: why should everyday americans care about what you do and what frackers do. even if they are not a part of the industry? >> i would say a lot of us guys out here, this is the way we feed our families. and the way we take care of our lives, really. >> there is not a whole lot in the world right now that doesn't rely on petroleum, okay? everything that we are wearing, our glasses, plastics, you know, that's aside from trucking and fuel. all those other things that everybody thinks about on the general scheme. but, you know, there is tens of

thousands of us, probably more than that we will all be standing in the bread line because if you shut the oil field down like all my eggs are in this basket. lots of guys all our eggs are in the oil field. >> lawrence: tell us about the impact domestically and those jobs shifting elsewhere. >> you are choking the industry and economy that way and not allowing that to happen. you have to look elsewhere to be able to work. look at going overseas. going south america. going over to the middle east to do that work. so now you have people that want to be here. they want to work here. we have the ability to be energy independent and do it here to be a super power in the world from an energy perspective. and when you have the regulation that is hamstringing us from being able to do that, it's really going to hurt all of us. >> lawrence: so i overcame my fear of heights yesterday. [laughter] >> ainsley: wore the wrong shoes? >> lawrence: don't wear jordanians to a drill site where oil is all over slipping and sliding all over the place.

we had the harness on we were good. one thing i learned some of these guys don't see their families for 29 days. they work 12 hour shifts. that's not even including overtime they may be getting as well. they say, look, this is the way we make a living. we don't want to be away from our families but we make a good living doing. this if they get elected, our hours are going to go down. and we just can't afford that. >> steve: you know, you think about how technology has changed over the last couple of decades where you are from texas. which is the number one natural gas producer in the country. now pennsylvania is because of fracking i remember when i was growing up pump jack in backyard. i live in ruffle, kansas, people associate the oil fields as being out there. but the battleground state of pennsylvania is the oil fields. >> lawrence: that's exactly right. >> ainsley: gas and oil supports 423,000 jobs. provides more than 40 billion in wages and contributes more than 75 billion to the state's economy. we love these guys. we thank them for what they do.

they are leaving their families, just like your dad, a truck driver, leaving your family so everything on this table can be made for all of us. >> brian: other thing to keep in mind fracking happened because of innovation in the 1970s, green justs came up with a way to get shale oil in between rocks using high powered water and whatever the mix is i can't even get my head around it. the book is called wild cat. you got to check it out. because of that, we became this oil and gas natural gas super power innovation is all on them, not on government. obama benefited from the fracking boom. they said wow, he did a lot of oil and gas. no, these guys were so innovative and productive they couldn't be stopped. and now you are going to make us put hands in our pocket and this world runs on fossil fuels. gobble get us off. make yourself sleep better thinking are making the environment better, we do things

more environmentally conscience than anybody else. >> ainsley: our taxes would go down. >> brian: cuomo stopped it after environmental study showed it would be no problem. >> lawrence: i talked with the businessmen that are there. they started to invest in other countries because we have been so hard on the industry. >> brian: to get a permit. >> lawrence: they decided to go to other countries. >> brian: banks involved to get a permit in order to hope that is something below the ground that is going to yield everybody profits. >> steve: my brother-in-law is in fracking and has a company in national guard. and he has told me that it is very complicated to be a fracker with all the regulation. and right now pricewise, not great. but could get better. >> lawrence: appreciate those guys. >> ainsley: thanks for doing that you had a long day yesterday. you were on the curvey couch and went there. both of you. >> brian: meanwhile, straight ahead, brand new fox polls show that harris is gaining some support but trump leads in the battleground states.

>> ainsley: kellyanne conway helps us make sense of it all coming up next. ♪

>> janice: good morning, everyone. let's take a look at the maps. can you see where the cold front is without actually seeing the cold front? sure you can very warm ahead of it and cooler in back of it. and that's where we could potentially see some stronger storms for the upper midwest and

parts of the plain states where you see the red zone there, large hail, damaging winds, isolated tornadoes. then we are watching this coastal low that hangs out off the east coast. northeast coast and that's going to bring coastal flood advisories and rip currents. we are watching this area. nothing showing up right now but the computer models are definitely honing in on something that could perhaps develop this weekend. you know. florida now. all of the gulf coast needs to pay attention this weekend. bottom line is a strong signal for something tropical to develop this weekend. and we need to monitor it for next week. we are still into hurricane season. we will continue to keep you up to date. fox weather.com for all of your latest details. ainsley, my friend, over to you. >> ainsley: good deal. thank you so much, janice. >> janice: of course. >> ainsley: donald trump drawing a huge crowd making his case to blue state new york voters to take a chance this november.

[cheers] >> and if you vote for me, i'm going to reduce your taxes, reduce your crime, and reduce your levels of stress. what the hell do you have to lose? what do you have to lose? [cheers] >> ainsley: that's actually a true valid statement. what do you have to lose? things are so bad here in new york. it comes as a brand new fox news poll shows kamala harris with a 2 point lead nationally. while donald trump has the same edge in the battleground states. so moments ago the "new york times" also releasing a brand new poll showing that both of those candidates are dead locked nationally. tied at 47%. with harris ahead by 4 points in key sting -- in the key swing state of pennsylvania. fox news contributor and former trump white house senior council kellyanne conway joins us now. hey, kellyanne conway. >> hey, ainsley. >> we try not to put too much stock in the polls.

fun to give us a grasp what the voters think. what do you make of all of this. decades look way beyond horse numbers any given day who is up, who is down nationally or in a swing state i thought the fox news poll really dug into the same concerns that voters are expressing to each other. and to themselves as they think about how to vote. what are they? fox news asks would you like minor change? major change or drastic change? 84 percent said they want to some kind of major or drastic change. of those folks, they support president trump, 63 to 34. over harris. so he is seen as the change agent. he is seen as the insurgent with the record of incumbent. that's key. fox news also showed in the polling, ainsley, that president trump right now is getting 29% of the black vote. and is he getting 46% of the union vote. show me a republican candidate for president who has been able

to keep those numbers, particularly among what some could see a history making candidate on the harris side. so she is struggling to convince people that she is the agent of change, that she is not tethered to the biden administration. fox also asked that, 24% are less likely to say that biden, harris has helped them than hurt them. and i thought this one was a real humdinger. it says that she is more likely to say whatever she needs to say to win and trump is more likely to say what he believes. he is seen as more truthful and transparent when it comes to level-setting with the voters. last point, i think the fox news and all the other polling shows us something that is truly a divide. and it's this. that if you are a harris voter. your number one motivator is abortion. and, secondly, your second mode ventilator is stopping trump. his voters are mostly mode vacated according to fox news by the economy and immigration. so his voters are thinking about

those kitchen table issues, a question of fairness. security, affordability. hers are focused on abortion and him. that's why no democrat can ever answer a question about kamala harris without saying trump, trump, trump, trump, trump. seven times in 10 words. >> ainsley: i don't understand if everyone that we talk to says the economy is the biggest issue, and number two is immigration, why she is doing -- we they seem to be neck and neck. those two issues are where we are seeing trump doing really well in the polls. now, the swing states, according to this fox news poll, arizona, georgia, michigan, nevada, north carolina, pennsylvania, and wisconsin, trump is beating her by 2 points in the swing states. so, is this really the most important poll? dr. is no request. in our country not millions of votes across the country. thousands of votes across a handful of states and handful of counties.

probably 22 counties are going to decide the next president. and in 2020 we had record turnout, a lot of early votes. a lot of mail-in votes. 155,500,000 people. and it came down to 44,000 votes across three states right before the four years before that 77,000 votes. so this is also going to be a technical trench warfare campaign, meaning the gains at the rnc and the campaign have made on ballot access on cleaning those rolls of people who are dead or moved of getting favorable judicial opinions in pennsylvania for example if you don't have the return address on there not going to count the ballot that came out last week in north carolina they are fighting against digital ids to allow college students to vote. you have these states can't have i.d. but they want digital ids for college students. everything i call it the nonsexy parts of politics. those are going to matter as much as candidate engagement. look, kamala harris simply cannot do what trump did last

night she can't go into a red state. pack the house. have people outside, watching on jumbotrons. what president trump said in detroit in 2016 what did he have to lose at a group of african-american pastors and voters. he is carrying that message now 8 years later. take a chance on me your pocket will be every episode. trump made a late night stop on gutfeld. we are going to bring you the highlights. ♪
