it. one thing we can do, there's a way of being able to honor the skepticism and say i got it. i know and it is justified here are the policy platforms we will do to increase housing, increase economic opportunity and use the system that has the measures of brokenness as a measure of rebuilding and healing. donald trump is not offering that. is just a vessel to the frustration but not a vehicle to the solution. >> governor wes moore of the state of maryland. you will be very busy the next few days. thank you. that's all for this wednesday night. a special hour of your power, your vote with alex wagner and joy reed starts now.

good evening. i'm alex wagner with my friend and colleague the great joy reid. can you believe it ? we are six days out from election day. today vice president kamala harris is phrasing the choice on november 5 as a fight for freedom. >> it is a fight for freedom likes a fundamental freedom of a woman to be able to make decisions about her own body and not have her government tell her what to deal. we all remember how we got here. donald trump hand selected three members of the united states supreme court with the intention that they would undo the protections of roe v wade. they did and now in america one in three women lives in a state with a trump abortion ban. >> likely voters ranked abortion as the second most

important issue next to immigration. among women abortion is tied with the economy at number one. that is part of what is driving the largest gender gap in the country's electoral history. to that end trump has spent much of his time on a tour of the nano verse. speaking podcasts, platforming angry male comedians like tony hinchcliffe and offering primetime speaking slots to misogynist businessmen who are comparing the vice president of the united states to a prostitute. >> she is a fake, a fraud, a pretender. her and herhandlers will destroy the country. >> even trump supporter nikki haley is not down for this. >> you had speakers at madison square garden referring to her and her . that is not the way to win women. this is not the time for them to get overly masculine. 53% of

the electorate are women. women will vote. >> when donald trump has spoken to women he has promised to be there hero, their protector. >> i am going to protect our women from criminals coming into our country going to the suburbs and doing really bad things. are there any women in this giant, massive arena that do not want protection. please raise your hand. do women want to be protected? i said, i'm going to do it whether the women like it or not? i'm going to protect them. >> it is the orange vest that really does it for me. the harris campaign has a different message for those women donald trump and nikki haley are talking about. detect yourselves at the ballot box. here is the new at narrated by

julia roberts. >> the one place in america women still have a right to choose you can vote anyway you want and no one will ever know. >> did you make the right choice? >> sure did, honey. >> what happens in the booth, stays in the booth, low harris -tran07. >> >> that is being echoed by surrogates including liz cheney and michelle obama. >> you can vote your conscience and not ever have to say a word to anybody. there will be millions of republicans who do that on november 5. >> if you are a woman who lives in a household of men who don't listen to you or value your opinion, just remember your vote is a private matter

regardless of the political views of your partner, you get to choose. you get to use your judgment and cast your vote for yourself and the women in your life. remember, women standing up for what is best for us can make the difference in this election. >> it seems like women might be listening casting mail in ballots, voting early and making plans to vote for kamala harris knowing full well that the men in their lives are voting for trump. some of them are even not so secretly posting about it on tiktok and making canceling out your husband's vote trend on social media. how many of these actually exist and what does it mean for the overall math? there's going to be a little box and it will probably show you kamala harris who is taking the stage in madison, wisconsin. we will hear what she has to

say in just a second. but first, we have been talking about women, we've been talking about men. we've been talking about men of color, we've been talking about women of color. this conversation in particular. this notion of women whose husbands are voting for trump and want to quietly vote for harris is tailored to conservative white women. >> 100%. what we have to remember is white women have only been free for about 70 years. in 1973 the same year women got the right to an abortion they still could not open a bank account or get a credit card in their own name without their husband 'signature. the idea, particularly for white women of being the protect the was part of the culture. it was a family vote, they pretty much would vote the way their husband voted. you could just see it in the polls.

for decades. then something happened in 2022. for the first time, white women who have only gained rights through acts of the supreme court or acts of congress, the 19th amendment which did not give black women the right to vote but it gave them the right to vote. they've had rights added to them. roe v wade added to them. the right to contraception. the right to open their own bank accounts . marital rape was legal until 1981. i think that the polls and pundits are undercounting how angry they are and how much of a fight they are ready to get in with these men who are saying i'm your protector. vote the way i vote and do what i say. >> it is so interesting to me that it is framed in this, i

know you have to keep it a secret from you man but go do it anyway. it's a nod to the fundamentally conservative patriarchal dynamics of some of these families but also acknowledging that women will do what women are going to do. they will do what they think is in their best interest and trump abortion bans are not in their best interest. >> the number one beneficiary of affirmative action in this country is white women. the idea of di benefits them. the mad men era is seen as the good old days by men, but for women it was an error they were free. i think we are just not able to even pull or prognosticate based on anything that happened before 2022 because what i am seeing just anecdotally is a lot of conservative women who otherwise would just vote republican because it's part of their culture, they are republicans but they are mad.

we don't know that that means this big turnout early voting. i find it hard to believe that that's a big turnout eager to vote for the guy they need protection from based on the two doesn't ought women who have accused him of sexual harassment or abuse. >> there is one woman who will be making the case for those women to come out and vote. let's listen to vice president kamala harris. >> trafficked in guns and drugs and human beings. wisconsin, if you give me the chance to fight on your behalf as president there's nothing in the world that will stand in my way of fighting for you. [ cheering and applause ] and here's the thing.

we know who donald trump is. this is not someone who is thinking about how to make your life better. this is someone who is unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance and out for unchecked power. in less than 90 days it's either going to be him army -- or me in the oval office. [ cheering and applause ] here is what you know. here's what we know. if he is elected -- it's not going to happen, but if he were elected on day one he would walk into that office with an enemies list. he talks about the enemies from within. when i am elected i

will walk in with a to do list focused on your needs. [ cheering and applause ] at the top of my list is bringing down your cost of living. that will be my focus every single day as president. i will give a middle-class tax cut to over 100 million americans. [ cheering and applause ] we will enact the first ever federal ban on corporate price gouging on groceries. [ cheering and applause ] we will fight to make sure hard- working americans can actually afford a place to live and if any of you out there are caring

for an elderly parent, my plan will cover the cost of home care under medicare so that seniors can get the help and care they need to stay in their own homes. it's about dignity my plan will lower the cost of childcare, cut taxes for small businesses. do we have any small business owners here? i love our small businesses. my plan will lower healthcare costs because by the way i believe access to healthcare should be a right and not just a privilege of those who can afford it. [ cheering and applause ] it's about values. on the other hand, donald trump answer to the financial

pressures you face is the same as it was last time. another trillion dollars in tax cuts for billionaires and big corporations. this time he will pay for it with a 20% national sales tax on everything you buy that is important is imported. clothing, food, toys, cell phones. a trump sales tax would cost the average american family nearly $4000 more a year. on top of that, you would pay even more if donald trump finally gets his way and gets rid of the affordable care act. remember how many times he has tried to do that. you are bowing because if he were successful it would throw millions of americans off of their health insurance and take us back to when insurance

companies could deny people with pre-existing conditions. you remember what that was like? we are not going back. [ cheering and applause ] >> that is vice president harris making the third of her appearances today in key battleground states. she's in madison, wisconsin, at the alliant energy center. joy, we were talking about white women in particular and the gender gap. i think it bears reminding the audience of exactly what the chasm was in terms of women who went for trump and women who went for biden. before i do that i want to bring in two women who know well about mobilizing the female vote. joining us now is the founder of win with black women. the first group to galvanize support for kamala harris as she announced

her campaign 101 days ago today. also shannon watts who organized answer the call to bring white women on board for the harris campaign. it's so great to have both of you here. white women in 2020 voted 55% for donald trump, 44% for joe biden. black women, 9% for donald trump and 90% for joe biden. a similar breakdown in 2016. it feels like women generally are very electrified in this moment. i wonder if you can talk a little bit about how you are seeing the grassroots enthusiasm and whether you think there needs to be a different message depending on which subsection of women you are talking to. >> just looking at that audience. the electricity we are seeing across the country at the

ellipse and now in madison and north carolina we are seeing and enthusiasm particularly among women. not just the conversations they are having how they are showing up to early vote. large numbers of women, black women, white women women of all ethnicities showing up, many posting enthusiastically about the vote, the motion of the denial and canceling out your husband's vote. i think what is happening and the difference is in 2016, many of those women that 52-55% that voted for donald trump, they lived with the donald trump presidency. i think in this day and age you see the repercussions of what a donald trump u.s. supreme court looks like and the removal of so many of our rights and i

think women are fed up and we will exercise our right to stand. we are also excited about what vice president kamala harris stands for and what she means for the future of women in this country and quite frankly we know women can get the dog is got the job done. >> shannon, there's reporting that the harris campaign is zeroing in on moderate suburban women in particular noncollege educated white women. can you talk to me up anecdotally what your experience has been like motivating women who are on the fence, who just aren't sure where they want to be on november 6, 2024. what is resonating? is it abortion? is it the post-dobbs landscape shaping opinion as you see it? >> i think that is part of it. i think it is a bigger issue which is a real feeling that

donald trump and j.d. vance and their supporters hate women. i don't use that word loosely. i really feel i get the feeling of hatred. the campaign really brought it home the other day and that rally that donald trump had. tonight he's insisting he will be the protector of women whether they want it or not. i think what is really interesting is what we are seeing is all these whisper campaigns. you showed some ads relevant to it. whisper campaigns are how women have shared information for millennia for things about menstruation, minute cause -- menopause and even meant to be afraid of. what we see is the same power of persuasion whether it is telling women they need to have conversations with their mom or sister who may have been part of that % that voted the way the last time whether it is sticking notes we see left in bathrooms and on airplanes all over the place particularly in red states or the ads that you showed. there's a group called the

fresh registry. they put out a question whether women knew that when they voted it was private. they did not know and it started this whole campaign to give women information through a hotline about the fact that their vote is private. all of this is a persuasion to change the hearts and minds of the 53% of women we hope will vote the right way this time. >> shannon brings up such a good point about the hatred some women feel is being directed at them by the trump campaign. i guess the word is ironic. calling is another word that he is out there saying, how many women want me to be her protector at the same time he's literally attacking a woman over and over and over again in the most vulgar language possible that happens to be the vice president of the united states of america. he has people comparing her to a prostitute. he uses expletives to describe her vice presidency. he could not be more insulting

or put more of a target on her back and he claims and positions himself to be a patriarch to protect women. >> there are women who are married to a trump. somebody who is supposed to be there protector but is harming them. donald trump, i think e jean carroll would've thought of him as an acquaintance that was safe to be around and he assaulted her. he said i don't know her i've never met her and then mistook her for his ex-wife and a photo. he is to run beauty pageants and peep that teenagers. he's either lurid to women or he's dangerous. he is vulgar. the campaign he is running is a campaign to attract men. they are going to man only

blogs and podcasts. >> he is wearing an orange vest in a garbage truck today. that is my five-year-old's stream. you get to drive the garbage truck around. maybe you can sit in an excavator. it is the most basic kindergarten version of masculinity. >> he is bringing out hulk hogan and ww the stars. their strategy is to over perform with men and over perform with young men the incels. it's also telling women you need to be okay with this because the only way you can be protected is somebody like trump stopping the brown and black people from hurting you in the street. it's the way that they used to get men lynched.

>> it does have echoes of the post-reconstruction era. white women need to be protected from the black and brown minutes. that is exactly the positioning he has been using at his rallies. you mentioned early voting. i do think this is important to highlight. this is new information that there is currently 56 million early votes have been cast nationally. 53% of them were cast by women. when you hear that statistic should democrats be rejoicing? do you think that is an indicator? if women are voting early in those numbers larger than we expected they are probably democratic votes? or do you think it will be as divided as it was in 2016 and 2020. i know in my heart and soul those are votes from women protesting the hatred that they feel. britney cunningham the activist only said your whiteness will

not save you from with the patriarchy has in store for you. i think we saw in 2016 when hillary clinton lost and the abortion bans and all the things that happened that that was true. whiteness would not save them. i'm sorry it took so long for us to vote not just in our own self-interest but all women's interest. i think that is what we are starting to see happen. when we talk about the gender gap, this idea that it is the economy that men care about i don't think that's true. i think it is preserving the patriarchy. i think that women see it and they want to bring it down. >> thank you so much for your time. it's so great to get your perspective because you know all of this firsthand. jotaka, please stay with us. when we get back, how much will the issue of abortion factor into women's votes.

it has been a central theme of vice president kamala harris's campaign. the critical importance of things like bodily autonomy and the danger when those freedoms are taken away. today the report of a young

mother pregnant with her second child who died of sepsis just one week after texas's abortion ban went into effect in 2021. despite being diagnosed with a miscarriage in progress, doctors said they could not treat her, meaning provide an abortion until her fetus no longer had a heartbeat. propublica wrote this. she prayed for doctors to help her while her uterus remained exposed to back .. three days after she delivered she died of an infection. the more than one dozen medical experts who reviewed her medical records called her case horrific, astounding, and egregious and said her death was preventable. joining us is alexis mcgill johnson, president and ceo of planned parenthood action fund

and jessica valenti, author of abortion, the lies they use to win. the stories are horrific, horrifying and entirely predictable by those who said don't overturn roe v wade. >> i think about the family, i think about amber thurman's family and candy miller's family. the horror that they went through seeking access to care and also think about the providers. the providers wanted to give that care. they were trained to give that care. they were desperate to give that care and there was some administrator, lawyer in the hospital somewhere who said we have to respect what these politicians have done. we know that at no point do americans believe politicians are more qualified than doctors or families to make decisions about their own bodies.

>> this was even before it was overturned. that means when it was overturned there was information out there, this in -- had not come to light but this just shows that even before that happened we all knew what would happen if women could not get an abortion and texas did this anyway. >> i think what is so important to know is that in addition to knowing that this would happen, antiabortion activists and legislators knew this was going to happen. they plan for this. they knew what these would do. they are trying to play it right now as if it is surprising to them, a tragedy. they planned for these. they messaged for them, they knew this was going to happen. they knew that women were going to die and they passed the laws anyway. i just spent the whole day being so angry and furious about this. not only reading this horrific story but watching the

antiabortion movement responses to this. >> what you say, i believe. unless you don't understand what happens in pregnancy complications which if you are right in law you should have a passing understanding of that. yet, they seem caught flat footed. the anti-choice movement seems really to be in many ways on defense around this because we are trying attention to issues of miscarriage and a lot of pregnancy -related complications that we don't normally talk about but dobbs has just plummeted off of it. what you now see in the form of retreat is a bunch of republican lawmakers who want to pretend they are not pushing to restrict choice and bodily autonomy. they are not using the language the anti-choice movement has used. talking about fetal personhood rather than antiabortion

legislation. that seems to be a movement that did not understand the pandora's box they were opening. >> they did not understand that it would make pregnancy more dangerous because they always try to isolate it as not part of reproductive healthcare. they try to separate it out from the broad range of how we would manage outcomes. when it really starts to come and the story start coming out they are running the other way. the thing about it is they are also looking at the fact that every time reproductive freedom has been on the ballot we have won and they realize it is politically inconvenient so they are flip-flopping and trying to walk back but they can't walk back from these stories, these deaths, they can't walk back from the horror, the chaos and confusion they have brought. >> i wonder what you think about this reporting that we have. this was a washington post story today. that headlined is, these women

are all in for abortion rights and for donald trump. these are republican and independent voters who plan to split the ticket on abortion. voting for an abortion referendum. i think 10 states have one on the ballot in november and vote for trump. they said they were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt with some feeling reassured by his recent promises not to crack down further on abortion. >> it is pretty unbelievable that his messaging about giving abortion back to the states. he keeps repeating this phrase again and again. i find it completely unbelievable but it has been making headway with republican women voters. i think them -- it gave them enough of an excuse to do what they want to do. they feel like, okay. what he's doing is giving them something really important. he's giving them the false notion of a choice. >> here is the challenge.

they will get a really unpleasant surprise if, when he comes in, j.d. vance and his friends at project 2025 say we are just going to enforce the comstock act. that's all they have to do. a lot of people are compartmentalizing if i can just control what happens in my state i will be safe. that's not the case. if you have a president and especially a vice president like j.d. vance who is a zealot they don't need a national abortion ban. >> they don't. they can do it through executive action. we are living in a world, i've been in seven states in the last 10 days. every time i land i have a different set of rights. when i bring my 12 and 15-year- old girls to see my mother in georgia they already have less rights than my mother lived with and she lived with jim crow. our state rights the argument they want to put out there. is that what they want to say.

>> you also can't travel because they want to criminalize travel so now we are getting fugitive slave act style laws. >> whether it is trackers or people traveling to seek bodily freedom, the orwellian aspect knows no bounds. i should not be surprised that we edge closer and closer but this is the modern republican party. >> this is the modern republican party. as much as they try to hide from it and they are trying to run from this, you can't run from stories like this. you can't run from the reality people are seeing and that is what we are seeing with voters. voters can see what is happening in their communities. they can see what is happening to their friends and families and it won't be very long before every person in this country has been touched by an abortion ban in one way or another. >> alexis, where are men on this

? it is appalling to me. it does take sperm to make a baby last i checked and that usually comes, not always but from men. how is this still being seen as a women's issue. >> we've seen a lot of progress with men. anecdotally being on the ground but being in conversations. yesterday i was at a roundtable in texas. we had patients and providers telling stories about what was happening in texas. i could look at the reporters who are covering it. you can see the light bulbs go off saying, what if that was my sister. what if that was my wife, what if that was my daughter. very much like the michelle obama speech. it is coming into the conversation and young men, we have looked at the gender gap but you sit on a college campus and talk to some men and they said this is not a gendered issue. i totally understand how this would affect my life, my career,

my family, my girlfriend, my friends. i do think the opportunity to really bring more men along, mark girl dads, brothers, all of that is there they just really need to understand more of the story. >> thank you. we will continue this conversation because these tragic cases are not going to stop anytime soon. we will be right back. back. when i have customers come in and ask for something for memory, i recommend prevagen. number one, because it's effective. does not require a prescription. and i've been taking it quite a while myself and i know it works. and i love it when the customers come back in and tell me, "david, that really works so good for me." makes my day. prevagen. at stores everywhere without a prescription.

>> i think the comment about being garbage, maybe 250 million people, they should not be talking. that is like deplorable. this is the deplorable for hillary. donald trump turned up in wisconsin with a custom maga garbage truck waiting for him , a dream come true for him. and comments about joe biden's comment last night. he kept the safety vest on for his rally in green bay. joining us is maia wiley from the leadership conference on civil rights. it is almost too easy. wearing a high visibility vest that he refuses to take off after riding around in a garbage truck. >> after calling us a trashcan

country. let's put that symbolism into what he's called all of us and our country and then he has the symbolism of driving around in a trash truck and he called puerto rico a garbage can. >> he just had a rally right here in new york city with a continuous spiel of racism, anti-semitism against puerto ricans, against black people, against jews. if we want to talk about deplorable . if you want to talk about categorizing people, we have to say what is worse? joe biden making a statement that joe biden made not kamala harris. >> then proceeding to try to clarify. >> proceeding to try to clarify that statement or outwardly endangering the lives of people based on who they are like haitian americans, trashing

puerto rican americans, saying and doing things that have literally stroked and incited vigilantism, including in some instances to try to come between lawful voters and their ability to vote. if we compare all that to this and his efforts to try to show he is in touch, all i can say is what he has shown us is who he is, and he has repeated it and put it on repeat. it has been much more fundamentally a danger to the lives of real people. >> i have thoughts on the biden garbage controversy. i want to get yours first because michelle obama days ago talked about the double standard here. what trump's comments elicit in the media and general public discourse and what, you know,

kamala harris the standard she is held to in terms of the policy she outlines and everything else. here is joe biden who's not even on the ticket and there's a firestorm of controversy around him. here is what michelle obama had to say, this is predating the biden comment but i think the words hold true. >> we expect her to be intelligent and articulate, to have a clear set of policies, to never show too much anger, to prove time and time again that she belongs. but for trump, we expect nothing at all. no understanding of policy. no ability to put together a coherent argument. no honesty, no decency, no morals. >> boom. the reality is it is

fake outrage. i'm sorry, permit me to just clutch my pearls, oh my goodness. donald trump and his friends are offended that people might have called them names, who bloody who. joe biden is not running for president. joe biden what he says is not relevant to the campaign. >> he has also said, repeatedly has said i am not calling trump supporters garbage. i believe the person who said that about puerto rico. tony hinchcliffe is garbage. there has been a clarification issued forth with. >> people should move on because the bottom line is, number one, donald trump in a garbage truck or mcdonald's, he's never worked a day in his life. is never done a real days work in his entire life. he has been a nepo baby with his dad's money and stealing it's got money from his

siblings when his brother died. he's playing dress-up to pretend he can relate to regular people. just by opening his mouth he and his running mate. he is not putting anybody in danger but what is interesting is donald trump got into a garbage truck for the guy he hired who they told to take out the c-word so people wouldn't be offended. if i'm puerto rican i'm taking that personally. >> it is a big feeling. >> why are you in a garbage truck? you are not walking back what you said about us. >> it is okay. it's a big time. donald trump actually -- here is his excuse

for tony hinchcliffe and his racist comments. let's take a listen. >> i don't know about the comedian. i heard he made a statement that it was just a statement. i don't know why he was there. they put comedians up. i don't know who he is. >> it's always the same thing with him. it's the hypocrisy of every aspect of what donald trump represents. maya angelo said it best when somebody shows you who they are, believe than the first time. i think we have to believe what donald trump has showed us over and over and over again that he just encompasses racists values, he encompasses sexism, anti- semitism, just all of the hate,

the hate against our muslim brothers and sisters in this country and the hate against women. the fact that he climbed into this garbage truck, on the heels of this event. and then to just sit there and say he knows nothing about this man. i don't know anything. yes you do. your campaign knows about this man. you heard what he said he didn't say anything about it. that is part of what this campaign is driving itself on. hate and trying to create this divide in this country. i think it's not working. i think it's having the opposite effect. >> that's it. it's not working. i think it's having the opposite effect. >> i don't know who the guy is. what's a trump rally?

>> i'm offstage listening and doesn't know anyone who he appointed to office who wrote project 2025 and doesn't know the justices on the supreme court who said he would put on the supreme court. he doesn't know any of that. every single time he moonwalks better than michael jackson. >> he's running for a job in which your principal job is hiring people and running an organization and the campaign organization you run is a good audition for how your been around the country. you're saying you had your biggest event, your closing statement, your dream of being in madison square garden and you have no idea who the people are? who hired them? do you manage your campaign directly? who is in charge? if you don't know who anhe is, somebody fjted his speech and hired him. and now you caste him off and you are involved.

>> i think part of it is he does not want to caste them off entirely because his strain of misogyny and anti-semitism has a home in the maga coalition. my heart does not go out to donald trump, but he's in a strange place. he knows that this guy has done damage to him. but especially puerto rican voters who could decide the selection in the state of pennsylvania. at the same time inhe knows tha his comedy lands with a bunch of men that he wants to show up to the polls. so to disavow it is not possible. >> remember who his foot soldiers were. it was the extremist groups. remember who he said in a debate stand back and stand by. remember who some of his major supporters -- steve bannon has

been organizing extremists globally, and all of this has been happening in plain sight in plain view and explicitly. so none of this, none of this is different from trump except how direct out front and overt and the permission structure to be overtly racist and be overtly sexist and to be overtly extremist and that's the reality is this is who he has always shown us who he is. remember birther is him and when hud had to bring him against the housing discrimination and the central park five. there is an unbroken chain here around his racism. >> it's this very clear line. it's not fuzzy and it's not gray.

it is very clear in terms of c who he is and how dangerous he is. this w is someone that incited violence on our country. this is somebody who continues, continues to galvanize around this point that he wants to t destroy enemies in this country that patriots who dare to speak truth to power are the enemies and he wants to use the military to take them out. he's very dangerous. he's dangerous for the country and has no real policy agenda for the country. all he has is hate and division and i think what we are seeing in the large numbers of early voting and young voters, we are going to, i believe, on tuesday that america is to say enough is enough. but she thinks the garbage trump think is working for him.
