>> you know, it was an absolute mes for kamala harris. as has been her entire campaign and entire 3-1/2 years in office. she couldn't answer a single question. and because it was a tough and fair interview, she was held to account. she couldn't talk about the border crossings under her failed administration or the fentanyl pouring in. she could not talk about laken riley and jocelyn nungaray. and couldn't talk about migrant crime because of her failure. she did not have answers on inflation and economy. i understand why her staff was jumping up and down waving to end the interview. it was a sdaft are for -- disaster for them. it was a hail mary pass. people are seeing it. >> todd: bret baier pressed her

on number of illegal migrants in our country. do you think she knows the number? do you think the person tasked with border crisis knows how many illegal migrants have crossed the southern border under her watch? >> well, we know the number is tens of millions, probably 20 million plus because of her open border because of porous border. she knows the answer, she did not want to say it out loud or admit her failures out loud. we know the american people care about key things. closing and securing that southern border so illegal immigrants cannot invade our country. fentanyl cannot invade our country. they want to make sure to bring down inflation and make sure she can fix the economy. she probably knows the answer and cannot give it. the answer is that she is failed, she is weak and dangerous liberal and only

president donald trump who did it during his time in office can do it again. >> carley: kamala harris points to bipartisan border bill. that bill was released this year, that is why bret asked this. listen. >> jocelyn nungaray, rachel morin, laken riley, young women brutally assaultd and killed by some men released at beginning of the administration. >> i think it is really -- >> bret: do you owe the families an apology? >> those are tragic cases and i can't imagine the pain the families of those victims with experienced. this election in 20 days will determine whether we have a president of the united states who actually cares more about fixing a problem, even if it not to their political advantage in an election because there was a solution, bret. >> carley: what do you think about that answer? she says she is the solution and

how do you think undecided voters feel about that line of questioning and her response? >> i think it is absolutely weak. she is the direct result of our open border and of those deaths and it is devastating to those families, who i have spoken to personally. to lose their daughter, mother and sisters. again, it is a direct result of her open-border policy. other apology is to families of 13 servicemembers who died from her botched afghan withdrawal. she bragged she was the last person in the room. this interview highlighted her failures and fact she doesn't have answers and she is incapable of leading. she does not deserve the promotion she iseck zooing and that was clear last night. >> todd: she has a problem with the chronology to carley's point. individuals came over well before bipartisan bill was

discussed. she cannot get over that fact, she keeps going back to that fact and it is incorrect. it is not correct. former president trump sitting down for a town hall looking to expand support among hispanic voters. take a listen to this exchange. >> it was coming together, so successful. everybody, hispanic americans, black americans, everybody had jobs, women, men, people with high school diplomas, people without high school diplomas, people from best colleges, mit and harvard, wharton and stan ford and people with no education, everybody was doings ing /* better. >> todd: democrats are underperforming with latino voters, historically a huge source for democrats. did donald trump in that town hall cut further into the

democrats' historical advantage? >> i think he absolutely did and as you pointed out shgs president trump is performing well with hispanic americans who support his plan to lower inflation, who support his plans on the economy and who very impor importantly support his plans for a secure border and mas deportation, those are key issues the president is running on and matter to hispanic voters. u univision vetted every audience member and said they were undecided voters. he changed hearts and minds with individuals who came up to him and said, i will be voting for you. once they heard his response. he will continue to cut into what is traditionally a democratic strong hold and because of his record of success under president trump, my community had historic low

poverty and unemployment and high homeownership and it is something we have to return to. >> carley: there is one friendly moment, maybe a moment of bipartisanship that is unexpected. listen to this. >> she seems to have an ability to survive. she was out of the race and all of a sudden, she's running for president, that's a great ability some people have and some people don't have. she seems to have some pretty long-time friendships and that's, you know -- i don't call that ability, i call that a good thing. she seems to have a nice way about her. >> carley: that voter asked him to name three nice things about kamala harris. final thoughts to you on that. >> you know, i think he's obviously incredible and probably couldn't have answered that question, probably couldn't

come up with a single -- it shows type of leader president trump is. he wants to unite this your honor country. we were successful under president donald j trump and that is what we'll return to in november and i think that is what the country is ready for and i encourage everyone watching go to swampthevote.com. >> todd: i love that line. she has long friendships. >> carley: kamala harris was asked that and she said he loves his family. >> todd: white house announcing 5 million dollars in student debt cancellation, economic impact of you on joe biden's latest bailout. >> carley: and kamala harris facing tough questions on her economic plans while on fox news and as fox news poll reveals, majority of sloeters trust trump more on the economy. cheryl casone isser hoo next.

economic plan will help move the country forward. >> todd: cheryl casone from fox business is here with details. cheryl. >> cheryl: immigration kicked thi things off in that interview. but bret baier asked her about the economy now, watch. >> bret: why do more people say they trust him on the economy than they trust you? >> i think when you look at analysis of our plan for what we would do as president of the united states, it has been clear to those who study and understand how economic policy works that moving forward, because i believe american people are ready to turn the page on divisiveness and rhetoric coming out of donald trump. >> cheryl: she pivoted and moved from the issue and turned back toward trump. new fox news polls we got, a lot of economic story is in our

polls, look at this top issue in deciding your vote for president. by 40%, immigration, economy 17% and abortion 15%. 7-10 people in our poll view the economy negatively. the biden-harris economy, current state of the economy. 44% in our poll say they feel they are falling behind financially and that has moved higher than when we asked that question three years ago. 43% think things are holding steady. >> his job approval ratings have improved. a lot of likely voters, according to polling, say that is because of his time as president when the economy was stronger. that was a very fair question. we did not quite get the answer. this is why that was a hot topic. >> carley: because of polling

incomes on the economy, could be why biden administration announced this. >> cheryl: more student debt cancellation, i feel like i'm on repeat with this story. we got the announcement this morning. one million public service workers will get student debt cancellation, 4.7 billion dollars. public service loan forgiveness program is vehicle they are using, they will push this through. this is etch tooers, firefighters, law enforcement, nurses, service members, about a million. >> carley: a lot of union workers. timing is everything. >> cheryl: yeah, i promise to fight for opportunity, i will never stop working to make higher education affordable no matter how many time republican elected officials try to stop

us. supreme court said no and they have been doing this in small sections. >> todd: to your earlier point, i think we can pretape this seg mo segment ment where joe biden tries to forgive student loans, we have to change our outfits because it is same every time and i'll chime in at the end, this is illegal, supreme court said you can't do this. can't happen. >> cheryl: legality of this one -- >> todd: it is not. >> cheryl: there has been legal challenges, i assume this one will have a legal challenge, as well. >> todd: if trump wins, it will be interesting to see what his lawyers, which will become government lawyers, not talking in his private stuff. government lawyers, whether they pursue this further or drop the case with supreme court. going beyond that, what do you

did about the money if people had loans forgirlfrienden? do you call it back? >> carley: i'm glad you said we have to change our outfits. i look forward to what cheryl is going to wear in the morning. >> cheryl: can we sleep in if this happens? >> todd: have our coffee. don't miss cheryl on mornings with maria. we appreciate it. amazon being criticized for banning a pro-israel talk to jewish workers and instead inviting pro-palestinian rapper mclemore to address their staff. samantha edid sheing is, activist slated to speak to the employees is now not allowed to do so and joins me now. what reason were you given for being banned by amazon? >> apparently their lofty dei policy applies to everyone, except jews. i was invited to speak, the

jewish group was super excited and needed inspiration and hope post-october 7. they have an employee hostage and amazon never said a public word about it. they were feeling down and i was invited to speak. immediately hr got involved and said i was too controversial. an anti-semite is not but an outspoken israel person is. >> todd: why do you think amazon invited mclemore, somebody that said f america and dressed up in a anti-semetic costume and banned you? >> they are not allowing jews to form their own groups, they have 13 other affinity group for asians and gays, and so many

afinity groups, but when jews ask for their own group, they are denied. they are subject to policy of other dei groups. they have a problem in their company. they invited a speaker who is supporting the regime holding one of their employees hostage, it makes no sense. >> todd: i have a wife, multiple amazon deliveries per day. the people coming to my house multiple times per day, rank and file employee, do they support this double standard at their workplace? >> we don't know. there are obviously hundreds of thousands of amazon employees. right now they are behaving like hamas is their best customer. i don't know why these policies are there. we have to assume, though, there are jewish employees throughout the company and none of them

feel protected. it is time for amazon to look at and has to come from the top and look at policies and change the way they are treating their jewish employees. it is unamerican what they are doing. >> todd: this is a head-scratcher, we reached out to amazon for comment, have not yet heartd back. thank you for your time, we appreciate it. kamala harris did everything to deflect questions on joe biden's mental decline. >> bret: when did you first notice president biden's mental faculties appeared diminished? >> bret, joe biden is not on the ballot. >> todd: james comer tells us what he thought about the interview next. >> carley: tossed questions across the room. steve doocy will look at what is coming up on "fox and friends." >> steve: coming up on "fox and friends" in -- let's see, 11 minutes and if i have seconds, lots of reaction after vice

pelosi says she had not spoken to biden in a couple of months after the former house speaker reportedly pushed biden to drop out of the race. there was also reportedly a heated exchange between president biden and former president obama. quite a scene there. after repeatedly touting joe biden's fitness to serve before his dramatic. president's fitness during her interview right here on fox. watch. >> bret: when did you first in the that president biden's mental faculties appeared diminished? >> joe biden, i have watched in -- from the oval office to the situation room, and he has the judgment and the experiment -- and experience to do what he has done in making very important decisions on behalf of the american people. >> bret: no concerns. >> joe biden is not on the ballot. >> carley: part of a 27-minute interview there. james comer is the chairman of the house oversight committee and he joins us now. congressman, good morning to

you. her goal coming on fox news was to speak to our viewers who include republicans, democrats and independents. and make the pitch for them to vote for her in the election come november. so do you think that she was successful in doing that? >> i do not. she has done so few interviews in her career, especially during her time as vice president, the american people are curious. they want to see if she can answer questions, articulately. if she is a real person. if she is intelligent. and i don't think she came away from that interview with any poise. at a time when the momentum is clearly on donald trump's side. i have been saying this for a week and a half i didn't know how the election was going to turn out. all the monumen momentum. donald trump is peaking at the right time and kamala harris is tanking at the worst possible

time for her. and that interview unfortunately for her didn't do anything to stop the bleeding. >> todd: you fold another news outlet you think trump is going it sweep every single swing state. we will see about that. one person disagrees with you about that is probably one hillary rodham clinton. here is what she said about the interview with bret last night. watch. >> what i'm see something a person who has the character, the values, the temperament, the discipline to be an absolutely first class president. and that's what i want the american people to sees a well. she is doing exactly what she should and must do. she is staying focused on the north star. winning this election and literally saving our country. >> todd: i think democrats and republicans can all agree we did not get specifics from kamala last time or did we ever get them. did you see what hillary saw character, values, temperament, focus in bret's interview last night? >> no. all i saw was a weak

presidential candidate that, in my opinion, never would have emerged victorious out of a fair, democratic primary. the democrats wanting to talk about a threat to democracy. blocking people like gavin newsom and gretchen whitmer from running in a primary and just self-anointing kamala harris, that's not the democratic process. and with respect to hillary clinton, let's be honest, hillary clinton is patient zero of trump derangement syndrome. first known case back in 2016. here we are today she is showing no signs of recovery. >> carley: you said something interesting that momentum is on trump's side right now. over the summer the momentum to trump. polling shows that why do you think that is happening right now and do you think it will last for the remaining 19 days until the election? >> the election is always about the economy. and this year it's a different kind of economy type issue. it's about inflation.

most americans haven't lived through inflation. and they are starting to realize that kamala harris and joe biden, they have been in charge for the last three and a half years. and look what has happened over the last three and a half years. the democrats in congress, being led by joe biden and kamala harris, have gone on a spending spree. that spend something spree has created massive inflation. that's why when every american goes to the grocery store it costs more than it did the week before they went to the grocery store. this is 100 percent a result of bad policies. policies of the biden-harris creation. people remember back to the four years of the trump administration and they are asking theirselves which administration was i better off personally in? was it the trump administration or the biden-harris administration. and people coming to the realization that they were better off under donald trump. crime was lower under donald trump. we had a secure border under donald trump. they have will come home and vote for donald trump in two and a half weeks. >> todd: before i let you go southern officials fallout duel

hurricanes, some ballots potentially lost in the mail. issue if your roads are blown out by a hurricane can you even goat a polling place. congressman, in the second seconds we have remaining how can we make sure no one is disenfranchised because they are a hurricane victim? >> i think that people in those states need to vote early. they need to be able to vote in person, the first day that that's available and that's rapidly approaching. because, if. >> abby: absentee ballot was mailed out and didn't receive it, there could be some controversy and question about whether or not they are allowed to vote. they need to be able to have plenty of time to take care of that. this election is too important not to vote and hopefully, those people that have had such a hard time will be able to make time to go vote. >> carley: congressman, thank you so much for joining us. great to talk to you, as always. >> thank you. >> carley: "fox & friends" starts right now. >> todd: have great day. ♪ ♪ >> steve: good morning, everybody. 6:00 on the couch here in new rk
