an argument or defend the policies of kamala harris. j.d. vance, on thepo otherin hae was prepared, he was on point. he was able to explain his positions, explained donald trump's positions andthin defend them. i think anybody who did dilantin to meet these two walked away realizing that you had j.d. vance as a serious, thoughtful,t engaging person, and tim walz is just a waste who is incapable o makinghe the simplest argument. >> laura: buighbt he would be a good neighbor if you want your neighborhood to burn down. i don't understand that comment. >> i guess! >> laura: charlie, it is funny, i got some holes after the debate from old law school friends not particularly fonbutf president trump. they will vote republican but they are not a huge trump fan w would do and were so blown away

what they saw. they have never seen a debate like this since 1980, reagan, and they went on and on and on.d i think trump had great performances against hillary the last time around, but this was kind of a different animal. and i think it made people sort of set up and say, weight, what have the media been telling us? r start paying attention a little bit now. >> so i've always maintained a big reason why you and i have been able to sort of set asidee donald trump's kind of unusualme political manner is because we have been around the media, weho have been around washington so long you know how evil it is anh how bad it is. you are not going to fix it witf mr. sunshine nicore guy. so donald trump comes along and. we forgive and set aside those things that are sort of unusual. for a lot of people we know whot are conservatives and serious people who left the country, they can't get past that would donald trump.

what they saw last night was the ability to get past all of that because j.d. vance had all of the policies of donald trump, ai wonderful prosecutor of the trump policies, but was able toi do it in that manner that is sort of a little bit more norma for politics. and a little bit easier for those people to accept. and it worked. and i think it will make so many of those people so much happier. about pulling the lever for donald trump. >> laura: those people arel th stupid, i'm sorry. anyone who has still thinking this choicplice is a pump locatd choice, i don't know. liz cheney is never going to vote for trump.ea but tim walzll had a chance tody to clarify that really awkward moment when he was pressed one time, went to him about one of his lies on china. watch. >> i had my dates wrong. i was in hong kong in china in

we lost a lot of earning power in the last year of contractatch with all of the inflation we have been having and we need to catch up and then we need to make sure we are protected for the next six years. so i do think inflation has been a factor here. it hasoein been cited by the bon workers, remember, you have 30,000 out on strike. and i think it was a factor a year ago when yoyou u had the an strike and part of what is o happening here. >> laura: kamala harris use the strike as an opportunity to hit warmer president trump think the strike is about fairness, for known shipping companies that made record profits and executiv e compensation in the longshoremen with a fair share of profits. donald trump makes empty promises after empty promises to american workers but never delivers. you areside former secretary of> labor under donald trump and does not care about workers question mike.were >> well, of course he caresme about workers and trump years were extraordinarily good for workers whenou it came to job

creation and when it came to wage growth. they were good years. what i will say is that -- i would like to see the administration step back a little bit, avoid appearing to take sides in this dispute. but what the president said in the clip at the beginning of the segment, laura, there's a lot oq truth to it. these strikes can have extraordinary consequences on the entire economy. and most of the time you haveoat had a coaster ride strike like this up and down the east coast and the gulf of mexico, if they last a very long's, presidents, republicans, and democrats decided they need to go to i cot and get in there a conjunction. that is something the president laid out.un after two or three weeks, the consequences and the, an rest oe country become very severe. nexi think the president will d to give very serious consideration next week whether he needs to go to court. i don't think it is constructive
