7:02 am
depot cofounder ken langone more worried about what happens after the election than who actually wins the election? if brace yourselves, because we're just getting started, my friends, and you deserve a big show. man, oh, man, today have we got one for you. ♪ ♪ neil: welcome, everybody, i'm neil cavuto. happy weekend to you. it is a busy weekend. for the next few hours, you will not believe the crisscrossing we'll be doing across this entire country with big names, the big candidate, what they're up to. in the meantime, we want to start with aishah hasnie, she is right now in gastonia, north carolina, where former president donald trump will be kicking things off shortly. aishah. >> reporter: hey, good morning. we are here at the operate, and you can see a lot of -- at the airport, and a lot of folks have already taken their seats. some of them are wearing those garbage truck worker vests, sort
7:03 am
of going off what the former president did earlier this week trolling the president. the former president comes here to talk about the economy and inflation, the number one issue in this very critical state for him. but he's also defending those comments he made about a liz cheney that have seemed to have taken really over every airwave. watch. >> so what i was saying is this is a big shot, things she's hot stuff, and i all i said is let's see -- i said put a gun in her hand and let her go out and face the enemy with a gun in her hand, and they'll have 9 people or 12 the people or 100 people. i said let's sew how she -- see how she stands up, because i say she wouldn't have the guts to do it. >> reporter: so the former president is coming here to some pretty remarkable numbers. more than half of north carolina's registered voters have already cast their ballots, neil. and get this, despite there being more unaffiliated and
7:04 am
democratic voters, more republicans have cast ballots so far. rnc chair whatley believes trump will have an outright lead here on election night. still, a new fox news poll out shows trump is hocked in a dead heat -- locked in a dead heat with vice president kamala harris, and a separate cnn poll has been flagging that harris is not doing so well, not as well as biden did in 2020 the with black voters here in north carolina. so one more thing to watch. early voting, in-person voting, ends in north carolina today. at 3:00 this afternoon. neil? neil: aishah, thank you for that. aishah following donald trump. mark meredith with the harris folks, in atlanta right now. mark. >> reporter: neil, good morning to you. vice president harris is expected to have quite a large crowd when she takes the stage behind me in downtown atlanta, one of two stops she's making today. she's also going to be in charlotte, north carolina. we're seeing the campaign put
7:05 am
new focus on those sun belt states as they try to get out the vote over the last few days and the next few days ahead. we've seen the vice president make stops in places like michigan as well as wisconsin. and last night while she was holding her event there in wisconsin, she told the crude she wants the to campaign as a moderate, make sure people do not think she's going to to enat act a far-left agenda. >> -- enact a far-left agenda. >> here is my pledge to you. as president, i pledge to seek common ground and common sense solutions to the challenges you face. [cheers and applause] i am not, i am not looking to score political points. i am looking to make progress. >> reporter: here in georgia early voting has already wrapped up, and the numbers are quite impressive, neil, more than 3.7 million votes cast early. and we are seeing overall when you include absent absentee, more than half of the state's registered voters have already
7:06 am
voted. while the polls show a close race here, some do think democrats are more the underdog here than maybe they originally thought. the new york times' chief political analyst writing how is mr. trump still so competitive? the simplest answer is that the national political environment just isn't as conducive to a democratic victory as many might if imagine. we are going to see the vice president hold these large get out the vote rallies like the one here in atlanta, or but we are still not expecting president biden out on the trail anytime soon. you would bet, neil, they're got the entire democratic establishment out there in this final stretch of the campaign. neil. neil: you know, you ended there talking about joe biden and he won't be be with her during this stretch. when decided that? did her campaign say thanks but no thanks? what happened there? >> reporter: well, obviously, there's been a lot of fallout from some of the comments earlier in the week that president biden made on on the zoom call. we know he was not expected to hold a rally or do anything that would be high profile, but it is
7:07 am
kind of interesting that the president seems to have just vanished completely for his own vice president's campaign in the final stretch, neil. neil: yeah, very unusual. mark, thank you very much. mark, by the way, the tie really indicates it's a big deal, so we know it's a big deal. mark, thank you for that. i want to go to lee carter, gop pollster extraordinaire, and get her take on this incredible number of early voting, almost 70 million americans. it was happening sometimes, i actually think this through, that's almost 70 million people who have already voted. so nothing the candidates do over these next three days is going to change that. and i'm just wondering the impact of all of that early voting. >> you know, it's a really fair question because, you know, a lot of people are saying all this early voting favors democrats. a lot of people say that it's all about voter enthusiasm and then that also a favors democrats because we saw in the latest gallup poll democrats are more enthused than republicans, but i'm not so sure. i think that everybody this year
7:08 am
has said we are going to make a plan to vote whether that's early or on the day day of, and i think we're going to see record turnouts. when you look at polling, meshes are sayings -- americans are saying this is the defining election of a lifetime. whether you're republican or democrat, you think this is going to change the course of history, so you're going to be out there and vote. some are going to do it early, some are going to do it the day of, but i imagine we're going to see record turnouts. neil: i understand how it goes,, we follow the early vote totals from heavily democratic counties or regions, the same for republican. and we try to extrapolate from that if there are a lot of them voting, they're all in democratic regions, democratic voters and republican region, republican voters. t not quite that black and white though, is it? >> it isn't. we're seeing a lot of people cross over in this election. tons of republicans are voting for kamala harris, and this is a lot of democrats who are voting for donald trump. we're seeing union workers turn to donald trump, we're seeing a
7:09 am
lot of people who are historically democrat turning to donald trump and vice versa. i don't think we can read the tea leaves too much. i know there's a lot of people saying because of the number of older voters in pennsylvania that are democrats, that's a big sign that kamala harris has it in the bag. i don't think that's necessarily true because there's so many things that are unknown right now. there's so many newly-registered voters that we don't know how to count, so many other factors here. there's a lot of crossovers, as we just talked the about. i hate to say this at this point in the game, it really feels like a toss-up. if you look at the polls, we are in the margin of error in every single state. neil: right. >> donald trump has never performed this well in the polls, not even close to this well in the polls this close to the election. neil still he was performing better in 2020 the from 2016, a record number of votes for republican presidential nominee, still lost. that was then. is there any sense of where the
7:10 am
ground might be breaking for him now? >> well, i think that when you look at the polls right now, of the swing states he's really got all but two, and it's looking like michigan and wisconsin might be wreaking for kamala harris -- breaking for kamala harris, but she's only got a lead by .2, so anything really can happen. the trend lines have been also moving towards donald trump over the past month and away from kamala harris. the one thing that we don't know, and if this is a big factor that i think we're all trying to figure out, is what the impact of this last week was. it's been all over the map. we had msg event which a lot of coverage was going if to be anti-trump, then we had the garbage comment that took away from her, and he made the woman's comment and the back and forth. but a i'm not sure this last week going to matter so much. most people's minds are made up. we do have undecided voters, but i think what they're deciding right now, ask it worth it to to vote at all. if you're undecided at this
7:11 am
point, you really are in a situation where you really don't like either candidate, and your question is, is it even worth it to oat to out -- get out there and vote. the last three days is about getting those people off the couch and into the voting booth. neil: gotcha, lee. a record low number of undecided voters. 2%, i believe, at last count. kamala harris is speaking right now to reporters in atlanta. can we go to that, guys? >> just further evidence of everything i've been talking about for months now about trump's intention to implement project 20 the 25. 2025. we have talked are repeatedly, and the american people know what's in it. we've talked repeatedly about their intention to get rid of the affordable care act, now to get rid of the chips act. let's talk about manufacturing, which is a critical issue for many of the states that will make the difference in this election. donald trump, when he was president, lost 200,000 manufacturing jobs. we have created over 700 new manufacturing jobs. it is my plan and intention to
7:12 am
continue to invest in american manufacturing, the work being done by american workers, upholding and lifting up good union jobs which are good paying jobs and doing the work of investing in american industries including our industries of the future. that is the way we are going to win the competition with china for the 221 1st century, and that is the kind of leadership that america deserves in their president. >> madam president -- [inaudible conversations] >> sorry. >> what's your message to milwaukee voters who are saying, you know, trump might be better for the economy? we're hearing that from including black men, voters who are skeptical that things are just too expensive for them. >> first of all, let me make it very clear that i intend to earn the vote of everyone, and i don't take anyone's vote for granted. and my highest priority as president will be to bring down the costs because, to that point, look, i know the cost of groceries is too high still. everyone knows it. so my plan includes what we're
7:13 am
going to do in terms of taking on corporate price gouging and having the first ever national ban on corporate price gouging on groceries. my plan includes addressing the issue of affordable housing i including for first-time home buyers, giving them a $25,000 down payment assistance so they can just get their foot in the door. my plan includes addressing the needs of parents, in particular young parents, which is why i will expand the child tax credit to $6,000 for the first year of their child's life which helps pay for everything from childcare to a crib and a car seat. my plan includes what we're going to do to invest in our small businesses, including increasing tax breaks for small businesses. and overall, my plan -- which is about a building an opportunity economy -- has been reviewed by leading economists in if our country from goldman sachs to 32 nobel laureateses. all who have said that my economic plan actually will strengthen america's economy. they reviewed donald trump's
7:14 am
plan and have determined he will weaken america's economy, he will ignite inflation, and he will bring on a recession by the middle of next year. >> okay -- [inaudible] >> [inaudible] he walked back initially saying they would repeal the chips act, but he still wants to impose changes to the bill. are you concerned about republicans seeking any changes to the chips act? >> well, let's be clear why he walked it back, because it's not popular, and their agenda is not popular. and that's why people are showing up by the thousands, tens of thousands to talk about an agenda that actually is focused on lifting them up. that's why i have the support of, yes, democrats and independents and republicans. because they want a president of the united states who stops playing politics with their lives. they want a president of the united states who invests in affordable health care regardless of who they vote for. they want a president of the united states who invests in american manufacturing and
7:15 am
american workers. and that's the work i will do. and that is the work i am committed to do, and i am very proud to have support of many leaders from every party who understand that that's the kind of leadership that we need moving forward. >> [inaudible] >> thank you. madam vice president, i wanted to ask you about your day one agenda. i know you said the other day you talked about having an executive order that would eliminate college degrees for certain federal jobs. >> yes. >> can you dell the us about some other day one priorities? >> absolutely. obviously, there's more than one, and one of them is going to be to submit, basically, a package of proposals that are about bringing down costs. so, for example, housing. what we need to do in terms of creating a tax benefit for folks who want home ownership. what we're going to do to create a $25,000 down payment assistance plan, what we're going to do for small businesses. all of that will require a lot of work, and day one is also me getting on the phone with
7:16 am
members of the republican party, with leaders, with the private sector. a lot of my plan includes working with the private sector. my plan includes cutting through red tape on the issue of housing, again. that includes working with local and state leaders to cut through the red tape as well as creating incentives for the private sector, builders and developers, the actually build new housing so we can increase supply and bring down the cost. >> charles? >>ed madam president, thank you -- >> three days? [inaudible conversations] >> that will go viral, for sure. tomorrow faith leaders in milwaukee and across the state will be praying about this election. >> yeah. >> encouraging people to get out and vote. >> yes. >> i think last week i heard you say god's power works through us. >> yes. >> what does your faith tell you about who god wants to win this election and lead our divided country? >> my faith and my belief in god
7:17 am
tells me that we all must think about our lives through our ability to do good works. and through those work, to lift people up, to help the needy, to help the poor, to help the elderly. and my plan for my presidency is informed with that spirit and that approach. and i to do believe -- i do believe that that people understand that that really is the sign of of a real leader which is not defining one's strength based on who you beat down, but defining the strength of a leader based on who you lift up. >> thank you. >> thank you. thank you. [inaudible conversations] neil: all right. we don't see that very often where kamala harris takes questions from reporters. i misspoke, she was in milwaukee, wisconsin, of course, one of these super close swing states. the last two presidential elections, it was decided by
7:18 am
fewer than 20,000 votes. a couple of clarifications on what she had charged of donald trump, that he lost 200,000 manufacturing jobs in his presidency. keep in mind all those jobs and beyond manufacturing collapsed with can covid when we were all sheltered in our homes, so it's not really a fair assessment to say that the hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs he had in the first three years are reflected in that final year. they weren't because everything stopped at that point. another point just to clarify here, she talked about how economists and many others favor her plan over his plan to fix the economy. the fact of the matter is that economists have panned both of their plans because they're going to add a lot of debt. in her case, $2 trillion over the course of 10 years. it's not worth the napkin it's sort of written on and usually in pencil. donald trump would add about $5 trillion to the debt. neither candidate really has an effective plan to control spending for the time being although he promise -- each prom
7:19 am
ises they will address that. want to go to mike tobin in door county, wisconsin. there's something about wisconsin, right, mike? >> reporter: there certainly is. and the presence of the vice president really emphasizes the point. it's no secret that both campaigns place great value on the 10 electoral vote prize you would get for winning wisconsin. and the trend here in wisconsin is the population centers like milwaukee and madison tend to vote liberal with each election. if you get out into the farmland where the cheese is made, that's where you'll see the trump signs on the sides of buildings. minds if largely are made up, so both campaigns held dueling rallies in milwaukee and pumped their get out the vote message. >> every problem facing us can be involved -- solved, but now the fate of our nation is in your hands. it really is. we win this state, we win the whole thing, you know what -- that? [cheers and applause]
7:20 am
>> we need everyone in wisconsin to vote. [cheers and applause] you are going to make the difference in this election. [cheers and applause] you will make the difference. >> reporter: people in wisconsin certainly understand the value of their vote. they can't ignore it between the texts, television ads, door knocking, their bomb -- they're bombarded by the campaigns. as a result, early voting is through the roof. 1.3 million votes have already been cast in wisconsin, that's about a quarter million more early votes than 2020. one swing county is where i am right now, door county. this county is a mix of manufacturing, shipbuilding, retirees, tourist business. as a result, they have the distinction of being the one county in all of the swing states that has picked the president in the last six elections. and believe it or not, while i'm here, i've been running into some undecided voters. neil, back to you. neil: all right, mike, thank you very much for that. speaking of wisconsin, that
7:21 am
state's outgoing senator kind enough to join us right now. i'm talking about ron johnson. senator, it's always good to see you. you know, you've had three very successfulful terms. i don't mean to minimize that, but the race as it stands now is very close in your state. hispanic voters are very important, and i wonder, some comments you had made not too long ago sir where you called mass deportations unrealistic. was that a reminder that that ticks off hispanic voters? what were you saying? >> no, i'm just talking about what is realistic. you know, you asked the question, it, conjures up just a horrible process of mass deportations. it's not the way it's going to happen. you're obviously going to identify the criminal, the transnational organizations, the cartels, the people taking over these apartment buildings. those are the people that we're going to focus on first. we're going to follow the law. and, of course, this biden administration's let almost 8
7:22 am
million people in this country. that's a population larger than 38 states, okay? that's the magnitude of this problem. we'll be dealing with the negative unintended consequencee consequences of this open border policy for years if not decades to come. so i'm just trying to lay out -- the i'm trying to get rid of that, you know, thing that democrats and liberals are trying to conjure up in people's mind. the majority of people do want to deport people who have come illegally, and i absolutely support that, and i think that's what this trump administration will do. neil: senator, you caught my attention and a lot of other people's attention when you were commenting on whether this will be a free and and fair election particularly in your own state. you've said i certainly hope so. unfortunately, though, here in the state of wisconsin we've got a governor who vetoed the the types of bills that would restore confidence in our election system. so you're asking me a hype critical question i really can't answer -- hypothetical. you say i don't know how many different ways democrats are
7:23 am
going to want to cheat here. >> let's face it. democrats oppose every measure to restore confidence in our election system. i just want to to restore confidence that no matter who wins, everybody accepts it. democrats are opposed to voter id, 8 800% -- 890% of american -- 80% of americans believe in it. they want to make it easy to cheat, and we have evidence that they do cheat. that's just irrefutable. the question is, are we just seeing the tip of the iceberg and, for example, all these illegal aliens that have been registered to vote, what about the smurfing? if millions of dollars through act blue being donated by individuals without their knowledge, tens of thousands of donations resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars. clearly a crime. fbi director wray was completely to oblivious to it. i don't know what they're doing behind the scenes. i think they want to cheat, i think they cocheat which is why
7:24 am
we keep saying we need such an overwhelming landslide where the result is too big to rig. neil: of course, the democrats challenge what you say, sir. and, you know, donald trump talking about some mistore yous with shenanigans going on in pennsylvania. republicans are the ones laying the groundwork for an election whose results they will not accept if they lose. >> well, again, i want to accept the results. i want a fair, legitimate election. i don't want any legitimate if vote cancel out by a fraudulent vote. we know that election fraud occurs in every election, it's just a matter of how large a fraud is it. neil: okay. senator, we'll watch very closely. thank you very much. senator ron johnson on all of that that. also get, fair and balanced, from the democratic congresswoman of michigan, her taken on this, debbie dingell. stay with us. that work better t. like your workplace benefits and retirement savings.
7:25 am
7:26 am
7:28 am
♪ neil: all right, michigan, where you can see 49-49, other polls have it 1 or2 points in either candidate's lead, but that is not only in the margin of error, there's no margin beyond that and very few undecided voters. i mentioned nationally about 11.5-2 of voters -- 1.5-22 of voters. gradely trimble in michigan where it's sort of living a lie, if you will, in one of the most serious or battleground states and one of the tightest. of >> reporter: neil, we're in dearborn, outside of detroits, which -- detroit, which is one of the cities that could determine who wins this state.
7:29 am
many are unhappy with the biden-harris administration's handling of the wars in gaza and lebanon, and that's why former president trump stopped in dearborn yesterday trying to win over voters who have historically voted reliably democrat. >> many people from lebanon, and we have to get this whole thing over with. we want to have peace. we want to have peace on earth all over, all over. and those are wonderful people, and i very much appreciate it. and being with you in dearborn -- >> reporter: for her part, vice president harris has continued her calls for a ceasefire, but but she has yet to visit dearborn as a candidate. democrats in this state acknowledge what arab-american voters decide to do this election could influence the outcome in the wolverine state. and, neil, i'll end with this because we are at a polling place talking with voters. anecdotally, i just spoke with a lebanese-american who has lived in the united states for about seven years, he's a citizen. she rote -- he voted for the
7:30 am
first time, and he just cast his ballot for former president trump, not something that you would fellowshiply here, but -- typically here. and he says, actually, peace in the middle east is important to him, but that's his number three issue. his number one issue, neil, is the economy. neil? neil: very interesting. grady trimble in michigan. debbie ding get joins us now -- dingell joins us now, democratic congresswoman. you can't ec trap late much from a single voter, but this is the tough turf for kamala haste right now. you yourself concern kamala harris right now. you yourself were worried about vote you are turnout not pg too long ago. i assume you're talking about on the democratic side? >> neil, it's good to be with you. look, michigan is very, very tight. you know by now i'm an accurate predicter, so i'm being very, very careful, and at this point i knew that donald trump was going to win michigan in the 2-of 16 and joe biden -- and
7:31 am
nobody believes me back then. i don't think you even did back then, in 2020, that joe biden would win. michigan is extremely tight. i do not believe that either candidate as one -- has won michigan yet. i think it's going to down to the voter turnout on tuesday, and i'll can -- we say we don't have undecided voters, but i still think there are a lot of people who haven't decided whether they're going to vote. i agree with, that i've heard many people as the reporter right before us said, the economy's the number one issue. it is. and dearborn needs -- look, there are a lot of people in michigan hurting right now on all sides of the mideast issue. if some of the people in dearborn are going to vote for donald trump, some are going the not vote at all, some will vote for jill stein, and some are going to vote for vice president harris. it is this tight, and it's coming down to voter turnout. i want to see how this weekend goes and going to be everyone
7:32 am
where, and there's going to be a lot of voter cabot. contact. neil: did you put the scare of god into that at -- a lot of those voters when you feared donald trump would win this race, you and others likely would be thrown in internment camps? you said the same about muslims and arabs that donald trump won. do you regret those comments? >> no, i don't, and i'm going to be -- neil: you really think you would be thrown into an internment camp? >> you know, neil, here is my concern -- neil: that's what you sate said. >> no, let me clear on this, i want to be very clear on this. i said it half sarcastically. donald trump has been very clear that he's going to go what he calls the enemy from within. i think we're all americans, and you can disagree or agree with me. he names his enemies by name. i do not think it is okay to say someone should have eight barrels pointed at their face. and i think -- neil: wait a minute.
7:33 am
in everything i looked at, in everything i looked at, congresswoman, he never if mentioned the word internment camp. so -- >> i'll tend you -- send you the ten articles e sent jake. neil: you can criticize his language. that's pretty inflammatory in and of itself. >> he has talked about detention camps. he has talked about banning muslims. he did. one of the first things he tried to do when he became -- neil: you stand by that remark. you stand by the internment camp remark -- >> i believe he has talked abou- >> neil: -- in your state. >> okay, neil, let me, let me finish. let me -- he has talked about detention camps, and nobody can deny that he has said he's going to go after his political enemies. he has named a number of them by name, and he has at times gone after me. so it does scare me. and what scare ises me more, you know, i've worked with donald trump. when he got elected, i said he would with.
7:34 am
i respected the office of presidency. but he enflames others. and the anger and the hatred and the vitriolicness and the threats of violence and the death threats that i'm not alone in getting, many people are getting, are something we all have to stand up to, dial down the rhetoric, dial down the the vitriolicness. it hasn't been good. i tell that to my other colleagues too. nobody can think that the division we see out there right now, the hatred and the threats of violence, are a good thing for this country or for anybody. neil: all right. but inflammatory comments go both with way, so talking about internment camps and everything -- >> there is a record of donald trump talking about detention camps, and i will send you the ten articles i sent to jake within the first five minutes of that interview. i do do worry about it because he has repeatedly said it. there's a history of his
7:35 am
anti-arab-american/are muslim remarks before he ever got elected the first time. neil: congresswoman, thank you very much for taking the time. debbie dingell on that, much more. we have elon -- maye musk coming up, the mother of one elon musk. i wonder what she makes of her son palling around, the big bromance with donald trump. after this. and the family bookkeeper, you're the first to know when high rate debt is stressing your budget. but your family's service has earned you a big advantage. the va home loan benefit. with the lower rate newday 100 va cash out loan, you can pay off high rate credit cards and car loans. that's real money you can use to take care of your family and home.

neil: has he always been a conservative? i mean, obviously, we see in recent years the affinity now for donald trump, but a number of issues he's taken up on x, as have you. are these, are these his true colors -- colors? >> well, we were all democrats, registered democrats, and we've all changed. you know? [laughter] because when you, e when he bought, especially when he bought twitter and then we saw the twitter files, all the corruption and dishonesty from the government, it was horrifying. and so, you know, then you say you can't vote for people who are december honest and malicious, and we -- dishonest and malicious, and we had to move to republican. and, of course, all the media was saying republican bed, trump

don't have to have id, actually, my canadian friends are going to go and vote because they don't have to to have id. i don't know if they really are, but they can vote at every booth if they want to because no id, you can just vote. so that's very scary, that they would not look at my id. in missouri. in new york. neil: interesting. and from that experience, what did you take away? >> well, i could take away that if i was dishonest, i could go to every booth, every polling station in new york and vote or even go back to the same one every hour. neil: you're a very powerful woman in your own right, very successful model in youren own right, and the musk name has nothing to do with a. that's but i do wonder when you hear this criticism coming from mark cuban that donald trump is
7:43 am
uncomfortable around powerful women, seems to have a lot of powerful women around him no matter what you the think of him or those women. so you and your son have, no doubt, talked about that. what a did you make of it? >> well, i don't have to talk to elon about that because i've always felt like i'm a strong woman. i'm a doctor of chi tet thetics, i have two master of science degrees, and i travel the world speaking at universities and corporations on not only nutrition is and health, but also on entrepreneurship because many medical professionals are not good at that. so that's my real job. but i've become supermodel since i turned 700. so at 76, i think i have 12 covers in the last 6 months which is not something i thought could happen. neil: you know, i've heard as a medical school and in your -- mom and in your book when we last chatted that you wanted your kids to pursue their dreams

and do what they did, you you held them to a very high standard. and i wonder, seeing the success of your son and your other two children as well, is there a formula for that? because a lot of people, a lot of parents who worry about their own kids today and whether they'll achieve what they've achieved, the vast majority of parents today fear their kids will not. >> they had to be quite independent because i worked very long hours, and sometimes i had five jobs, five part-time jobs day and night, so they had to the make their own decisions and also assist me and be good kids. so they are, they decided what they wanted to do. they could have -- i was a research officer at the medical faculty in the university of toronto, so they could have come there for free if they studied something in the medical field. and they said, no, they're going

i don't want to misquote him, but i believe he effectively said there's a depression if i don't win. do you agree with that? >> no, i don't. however, i do think that there will be various impacts, neil, on the economy, on the success market depending upon who wins this election. for example, donald trump talks about a mass deportation. now, i'm not saying people who don't belong here should be here, but if you looked at what the impact of that would be, you start deport being all these people, neil, who's going to do that work? if it would create an immediate shortage of workers. now, if that happens, that is going to be very, very troubling for the economy. so that's just one example about how whether it's donald trump or kamala harris talks about these things, there's going to have an impact or cause and effect of anything that they put into place. neil: real quickly, donald trump
