public opinion does not go away. persuasion to our neighbors and fellow citizens, the independent media and the rights they have. we are still here. fundamentally to my core i do not believe america is a fascist country. i do not believe we want authoritarian. i know a lot of us view this election on that idea but most people voting for trump do not see it in those terms, honestly. i still think no matter the outcome they want self-rule and that majority that wants democratic self-rule will still exist after tuesday, after the winner is called no matter who wins. if it is donald trump, all of us in that pro-democracy majority will have to work together to thwart his worse impulses. in the end all we have in a

democratic republic is each other. sometimes that can be really scary even panic-inducing. but it is what we have. and it is better than anything else. that is all in for this week. alex wagner starts right now. go vote, everyone, good evening, alex. >> go vote. i am glad to be trapped in whatever this is with you my friend. >> likewise. >> see you on sunday. just like chris said, there is our final show before voters head to the polls on tuesday just four days from now. no one knows what it is going to happen. all indicators show the race to be neck in neck and there is no real favorite. election day could be a coins to, maybe. and then again, maybe not. but maybe so. whatever happens it is worth putting into perspective what we have been living through in this extraordinary political moment. in just three months the harris campaign has managed to pull off what most campaigns could

not do in three years. even before the first debate donald trump had a narrow but consistent polling lead over president biden and that lead nearly tripled in a month after their first debate. since joe biden left the race his successor used what little time she had to run an incredibly nimble and responsive campaign nearly devoid of controversy. she generated considerably new enthusiasm among voters of all ages and races turning a gap with trump into a banishing margin of difference. when critics said her campaign did not have enough specifics she came up with it. when she was not taking enough questions from the press she sat down for television interviews and podcasts and what you can call an interview on fox news. in their one and only debate

harris beat donald trump handlely and then offered him shot after shot after shot at another one. after she moved the race back into the margins the harris campaign avoided infighting and backstabbing, the kind of stuff that plagued nearly every presidential campaign this century. and yet, despite everything we know about her opponent, donald trump, despite everything trump did in his first term, despite his efforts to overturn the last election, despite his two impeachments, despite his four indictments, his 86 criminal larges and 34 felony convictions, despite being found liable for sexual abuse. despite his racism and zenaphobia and admiration for dictators and pledge to be a dictator himself on day one.

despite all of that there is still a 50% chance that he could, once again, be president of the united states. now, some of that is due to the durable and still growing fascist movement in this country. a movement of people who embrace trump not in spite of his cruelty but because of it. and as we think about the future of this country. even beyond election day, we should not deny that the movement exists. trump's coin toss chance at re- election is also due in part to a very weak republican party. there have been notable exceptions, people like liz cheney and john kelly, republicans who stood up to trump at significant personal and professional cost. there have been far more profiles in cowardes.s. every republican that is not on

the verge of retirement, they all bent the knee to a man they know will turn on them as soon as it is convenient and hey, maybe even before then. trump's chance at winning is due in part to the venal self- interest of the billionaire class. some curry favor with trump others abandoned their prior criticisms and backed trump in hopes that he might cut their taxes again. and then of course there is the world's richest man, trump's very own wingman who literally leapt to trump's side in his quest for unchecked power. all of that has mattered. all of that is why donald trump might win again. but there is another very important factor in all of this. something that kept trump in range of the precedency once again. that is civic disengagement. disinterest and fatigue with american politics that trump

has further exploited by numbing the american populous to the things that would have once shocked them. people who have been failed by a fragmented information eco system that made disinformation seem as fact based as actual information and left people misguided or confused and ultimately apathetic. i, myself saw it when a went to saginaw, michigan to talk to some of the voters who just might decide this election. >> are you going to vote? >> i'm not. >> you are nothe. >> just to be clear. you are okay with either outcome? >> i am. >> is anybody undecided? >> okay. >> i am undecided because i just, i have not seen enough of it yet. i need to pay closer attention and kind of do more independent research before i make my judgment. >> there have been news stories

about the candidates that made its way to your information feed? >> not particularly. it is just how people kind of act around this time. it is a little crazy. so, i try not to partake so much. >> what is the deciding process look like for you >>. >> just sleeping on it and go with what my heart tells me is best for the country. being american we have the right to vote. it is a blessing. so just take my time with it, yeah. >> how do you think you will decide? we talked to a gentleman who said i am just going to go with my heart on election day? >> as the election comes a little closer i think the more i see and the more truth that ends up coming out i will be able to make a more educate audio. >> you need more time? >> yeah. >> reporter: if the union does not endorse a candidate, and you are left, you know, to decide on your own, do you think you are destly going to vote? >> i am definitely going to vote. how do you know if you will make the decision? >> i will be conflicted in the

voting line. >> literally a game-time call. >> i think so. >> do you think you will vote in november? >> i am undecided at there point. i just need to do my own research and make that decision still. i don't look into it too mooch. >> one issue that you care about? >> the economy. if you can not afford to have a house or buy your family food nothing else really matters. >> reporter: do you think you are going to vote in november? >> i am not entirely sure yet. i am waiting for something to pop out at me. i don't know what yet that it could be. >> has any political kind of event or news crossed your radares ently where you thought hmm? >> not really. i don't think. but i have not like i try not to talk about it with my friends because they get into heated arguments so i stay out of it. >> would you say you are an undecided voter? >> yeah. i am in the middle right now. >> according to the latest polling undecided voters are 4% of the voting population.

by all reasonable estimates it looks like it will be the tightest race in modern political history. meaning those undecided voters are the ones who might very well choose the next president and take the country down one of two radically different paths. joining us now is melisa murray. co-host of the podcast and michelle goldberg publicist for the "new york times." >> ladies, last show before election day. what i think, i mean, it is all stressful, right? one of the factors that makes it extra stressful is the notion that these kind of potentially inconsequential factors like weather or traffic or rain just how someone gets, feels getting up that day, those could be the votes that decide who is president in 2025. i wonder how you are thinking about the margin right now and the sort of risk of factors if

you will, michelle? >> reporter: i think the margin it is so dark about this country. 30% of the population or 40% of the population was going to vote for donald trump you could still sort of say, what has gone wrong in american society that this is attractive to people. so, i mean it is, it is truly terrifying that, you know, our democratic birth right so many of the liberal democratic assumptions that we grew up to pass on to our children are just a salute coin flip away from being protected or lost. >> melisa, i feel there is widespread understanding in the stakes of this election, right? especially on the left. there is a sense as michelle says is a coin toss between one form of government and something different and darker. but, a new police in the

atlantic, contending on the cost of trump's return to power the existence feels like resistance of another era. the sense of outrage. >> do you agree with that? >> not entirely. you know, i will say we are living in a world there are two different political realities, two different socioeconomic realities and they are pretty moch in conflict. when we went all around the country talking to black women i would say that, almost to a person many of them understood that this election was about democracy. democracy was on the line. it did not mean all of them were ready to vote or ready to vote for harris but they recognize there is a serious threat to democracy. not everyone believes it. obviously, but in the same way, not everyone believes that there is an economic crisis. there are those who are on the coast believe that this economy is rebounding.

in fact, all economic indicators indicate that is, in fact, the case. in the middle there are those who feel something completely something different and their reality is not like what everyone else is experiencing on the coast. we have a complete misalignment. we are literally at the point where people are going to continue corroding democratic institutions to the point where they may fall apart because they believe so strongly the price of milk is too high. we can not disabuse them with that or disabuse them of the views that we are about to become something that is not a democracy. >> i wonder if we have the question who feels this, who feels the stakes most closely and most viscerally. thinking back to january 21st of 2017. the women's march, right? resistance was in large part, that was the kickoff moment for

the official resistance. led by women. and i do feel like when you talk about the stakes there is a class of americans within, who really understand because of the abortion decision and what has happened to women's health care, reproductive health care more broodily, they really feel the difference between having a president who is republican/conservative and one who is not. >> well, i think part of what made the resistance so powerful, a sense of shock. it was as if people let down their guard and allowed it to happen. then mobilelize it and mobilize and it was like we could return back to an american before 2016. if trump after january 6 is restored to power nobody will be able to say there is not who we are. we are clearly be who we are. same time, yes, i think

essentially initially you will see a lot of dispair and withdrawal and kind of people pulling back in, you know, internal exile. it is degrading and defiling. trump will give people a million reason to mobilize. if he is telling the truth of camps, internment camps to round people up by the millions and imprison them, there will eventually be mounted and fierce resistance. >> there will be. what terrifies me is that we know from the generals who worked with trump, that is the moment in which he wants to sick the army on the american people. and this has been a hard thing to convey to voters. it did not happen before why would it happen next time? the people who stop today from

happening before are out there trying to warn us. >> the other thing about the resistance is maintaining that energy for a long period of time is exhausting. we talk about it, you got to stay in if you want to see what the court is doing. you got to stay in it. >> it is a lifetime appointment. >> for them and it is for us watching them. so, that is hard. it is hard to sustain that. people are exhausted of dealing with this. and to a certain extent the crazy has actually been normalized. what he has done over the course ever eight years no longer seems weird it is just like here he goes again, here we go again, and i think we have to decide are we going to pack a lunch and limber up and get in there like it is a marathon? or were we thinking it was a sprint and dust him off and it was going to be over. >> that is why i bring up abortion. what is driving people to the polls. i know we care about the

economy, number one issue but for women, two issues tied. abortion, the economy. that is one of the those things where dying and hearing stories about people dying does not ever become normalized. >> although can i just say, there have been now four, we know the names of four women that have died. i would of thoft that in itself would of started a movement. >> it has in other countries >> listen, i think it is, i am not, i don't know about why it did not create a mas movement but it is in the sense you are hearing reports in propublica, pregnant women are untouchables that is a doctor at george washington university. if you are just pregnant especially a red state you have to worry if you can get care in an emergency room. that is a, that is a constant and pervasive fear that will live in women's minds regardless of the headlines in

the media. >> definitely. the question is how do you make it live for the men you talk to in michigan. that is connecting if to some things that i were talking about. protector, provider. we have to connect for them. part of being a protector and provider is making sure your wife does not die on the operating table. you have to be there for those questions, it is about health care. >> your daughters, your mother, your sister, your life., your neighbor. >> in 2016 women made up 53% of the vote. 52 not 2052. 52%. the optimism this year they make up 55% of early vote in the battleground states. that could be the whole ball game if women are choosing to vote on one of their top two issues which is abortion. we will see.

in 2020, trump falsely claimed victory and called for the vote counting to stop. the reality was that the result of the election was still unclear. news networks did not start calling the race for biden for another four days. now, trump's false claim of victory was temporarily boosted by what was called the red meroj. merage. same district attorney votes. because of the pandemic, a record number of people voted by mail. those votes gave biden the white house. what should we expect this year? and when as well we expect it? joining me now is msnbc national political correspondent, the great steve kornacki, steve, so good to have you here tonight. so thrilled to get an early preview of what you are thinking. can we first talk about the state of pennsylvania. i was camped out in front of city hall for more days than i care to remember. do you have any expectation their ability to count votes

and return a call will be any faster this year than it was in 2020? >> reporter: famous last words but we can be cautiously optimistic, why in pennsylvania? well, a lot of people will say, this is true. they did not change any laws in pennsylvania. they had a chance to that would of sped it up but it did not happen. what happened is this, we have seen it in pennsylvania and elsewhere, voting by mail is down from 2020. during the pandemic a lot more people were using it, they were at home. did not want to go out. mail is what clog today in pennsylvania and all of the other states. especially in pennsylvania because they never processed it before. now, at least, they have a few elections, election officials do, of dealing with mail in voting. they will not have the massive numbers of it that they will have before. plenty of it. some indications some of the counties they did not count

overnight last time. i think you will get more around-the-clock counting as l. a lot of opportunities even for pennsylvania to be faster >> can we talk about what triggers recounts in some of the key battleground states. in arizona and pennsylvania that the margin is tight enough it is automatic recount. what does it look like across the seven key states? >> reporter: the most important thing to know in all of them there is a provision that any candidate can have a recount. they may have to pay for it in some cases but there are provision r visions. in pennsylvania there is an automatic one, .5%, in michigan automatic. that is a 2, by the way, 2,000 voters fewer. when trump won it was 11,000 it was starting to get down. 154,000 last time. automatic recounts there. a lot of the others if it is

close and a candidate wants it they can have it, may cost them money but they can do it. >> steve what, with that in mind what are the counties are eagerly watching on election night that will be, if we can call them that, bell weathers for the ultimate result? >> oh, so many. [ laughter ] you. >> your top three. you have 3,000 . >> no, i am asking. willie wonka. i don't know. maybe a couple that we will look at right here. let's go to georgia. pulling up the 2020 results, i call it the blue blob. nine counties in the atlantic area. these are getting much, much bluer, election to election. more than 40% of the votes inside here. one of my key questions here, democrats are having a good night is the blob getting bigger? if it is going to get bigger it will happen in this county

right here. fayiet county. you can see biden lost it -- fay ette county. down to 7 if the trend continues if fayette flips it is a sign democrats are getting something they want out of georgia. how about charlotte. one of the big cities, east of charlotte, the bedroom communities of union county. big suburban county. this is different than fayette it is still overwhelmingly republican suburb. subtle here. take a look in 2016, trump won it by just over 30 points, came down to 24. important question for trump. remember, he won carolina both times but his margin was cut more than in half. this is a significant part of the reason why. does he stop this drainage?

does it get worse? does he claw back to 2016? does he regress further. it is key, a lot of counties like union around north carolina. you talked about pennsylvania we will closeout on a third county in pennsylvania. i want to go with, it is not that original but lackawann accounty, this is where biden is from. this is the journey that lackawanna county. obama won it, 28 points. biden comes along and gets it up in the high single digits. is it going back to 2016? is trump flipping lackawanna county? or are the gains that the democrats made, small to what they used to have, back to middle high, democratic victory it is a huge thing for democrats. >> steve, you are such a wizard, man. i got to say just for a moment,

for a brief moment my anxiety and stress turned to excitement. i can not wait to see you back at that big board on tuesday night. you are a national treasure. thank you for giving us an early preview. our own steve kornacki. >> thank you, alex. hair sis on track to overwhelmingly earn the vote of black america next week. will her margin be enough to win the whole election? we will talk about it coming up next talk about it coming up next

. why kamala and or why donald trump. influence really matters. and why not donald trump? is because i see what his influence does to racism, to bigotry, to those who have been trying to suppress us doing it in our face. i felt what it meant to be a black man in 2016-2020. i saw how him, as president, as the world leader, dealt with george floyd. i saw how he dealt with us during the pandemic. donald trump lost my vote from 2016 to 2020. how is kamala harris earning my

vote? she is not donald trump. to me it is that simple. if you are a black man you should of felt like that, and you should not vote for trump. if you are a women you should not vote for trump. if you are a man who has a wife, a daughter, a niece, a mother, i don't know low you are voting for trump. i can not for the life of me figure out why this race is so close. that is why we are tired. >> kamala harris is the right choice for president because she has the right policies, the right ideas, she is qualified in terms of her leadership and she is here for our community. and i think that sometimes we have to as a black community, especially black men we have to be able to say, yeah, you got to get away from the fact that donald trump may sound like your homeboy from down the street but he is not. the reality is that kamala harris is that person that it is the most genuine person in

the race. often times it does not come off that way. [no audio ] not come off that way. [no audio ] [no audio ]. >> okay. that is unfortunate. that is what happens sometimes when you are editing things up until the last minute. much props to the people who worked on that. right now, vice president kamala harris is overwhelmingly winning black voters but a gender gap. 81% of black women say they are voting for new hampshire according to a poll while 59% of black men say they will do the same. that is lower than the 79% of black men that voted for joe

biden in 2020 and the 82% of black men that voted for hillary clinton in 2016. back with me now is melisa murry and joining us is rashad robinson. and spoabs person for pack, color of change. so spokesperson for pack color of change. thank you for being here. there is an interesting phenomenal here. what is happening in the black community seems to be applicable what is happening across all communities regardless of race is gender, 23% drop off in terms of black male support from 2016 until now. you are seeing similar drop offs among latino men, not the same and white men who always supported donald trump will continue to. but we are talking about is a gender gap. i wonder if you can offer

insight into, for example, it is happening in the black community, if it is at all. >> happening in all communities. historically black men voted with the women of their race more than any other group of men. black men have historically voted for pro-women, pro- abortion, pro-civil rights, pro- lbgtq more than any other group be sides black women. this drop off that we are seeing is indicative of the larger culture of misand disinformation that traveled and hit people. i think if is a result of maybe some under investment in reaching and engaging black men like you actually need them and at the level that is required. but i actually think when the votes are actually counted . >> you don't think there will be one. >> we were hearing this the last election, we were hearing it four years ago there was going to be a drop off in black

male voters. we were hearing it across the board and it did not happen at the size and the scale necessary. donald trump is going around saying what he will do and what he has done for black communities and for black men. what we know is what he has done to us. he executed at the federal level, executing more black men than have been executed in decades. he weaponized the department of justice to no longer investigate, you know, all sorts of police brutality and he promised to bring stop and frisk federally so the police are immune. yes. >> immune. >> completely immune regardless of what they do violently. steal from us, so many things we have to continue through the tape of election day and saying that and being in the conversations in it is at the barbershop, if it is in our group family chats. and continuing to hit and

engage people with the facts but also with the message that we actually can not go back. >> i do wonder, melisa if there is anything to the notion there is a re-alignment more broodily happening with working class voters and the democratic party. we are told that if it was the focus on abortion or social and cultural issues that are part of the discussion if not policy on the left has alienated. i put it in quotes because i don't think it is in nature but perceived alienating to other parts of the population. do you think there is a cause of concern for re-alignment. >> the democratic party of rich democratic people. >> and women. >> i want to push back on this. this narrative has been hyped a lot in this election cycle and no push back on it from the media. when we talk to the men like

you saw in philadelphia, talk to the men that you talked to in michigan. they are lamenting the loss of manufacturing jobs, loss of good blue collar jobs. why is anyone not asking when do d those jobs go away? it happened under republicans not democrats. it is the same party son of a millionaire and make that make sense. making sure that people understand what you are aggrieved about who was responsible for it. then, i think there is a real question about civic engagement and if voters actually know who to attribute certain policies to. we had a lot of black men talking about the stimulus, stimulus, stimulus checks those were not donald trump stimulus checks, they were passed over his protest, that is pelosi money not trump stimulus.

that needs to be conveyed. when we talk to black women in the nail shop they were saying joe biden did not do anything to address police brutality in washington, d.c. that is not a presidential problem, that is a bowser problem, joe biden as president passed one of the most sweeping orders that funneled grants into police departments, to track police brutality and violence and issue descent decrees over police departments like the one in minneapolis that killed george floyd. that was massive, massive reform that did have real impacts on community of color and that message needs to be gotten across if people can not perceive what the branches of government do and who is responsible for. >> one of the most important thing that has happened is barack obama out there on the campaign trail saying you like the trump economy? that is because it was my

economy he inherited. truly to your point. built by democrat not trump. i mean, i guess, i am asking you one thing and i feel like -- i mean i am not suggesting the democratic party is the party of elite liberal women, the reality is that democratic policies disproportionatly effect them. how do you get it across to those who will decide this election. >> it is not what we say on the left it is what we do. who we show up for and how we show up. one thing that will be important regardless of what happens in this election for the left is that we have to tell a more clear and powerful story of what is standing in the way of change when change does not actually happen. >> yeah. >> if we don't actually take on issues of corporate power when we can't get something over the line and not just talk about corporate power in the abstract

but actually name names. it will not get us fans or friends after the election, right? we have watched this election billionaires time and time again standing with donald trump or the one that should be standing with trump be silent and enabling folks like elon musk, standing behind these really horrible voices that are willing to put us all in harm's way as long as there is a check at the end for them. if we can't actually do that work, name and shame and hold them accountable we are not going to actually build the type of kind of power and energy we need to win. >> yeah, naming the names thing seems like the graduation past. biden years where there was a sense of where you wanted to keep the door open but the republican party has proven itself so uninterested in that, any actual governing you are saying the gloves are off, let's go. if this is our reality it is time to fight.

others. donald trump is also holding a rally tonight. what do you make of the campaign's attention on your state in this final stretch?>> well, wisconsin makes beer, cheese, and president of the united states, whoever wins wisconsin is going to be our next president, i think it is going to be kamala harris.>> okay, what is harris talking about and what is trump talking about in this final stretch?>> harris has a pitch perfect closing pitch in wisconsin, fighting for middle-class families, bringing costs down, fighting for the right to organize in a union, fighting to ensure the government is there to support people with child tax credit, child care, helping folks get covered by medicare when they are aging at home and starting a small business, the government should

be on the side of working people and you can do that if you tax billionaires and big corporations enough that they pay their fair share. the second piece is freedom, the freedom to make your own decisions about your own body, without the government telling you what to do. the third piece is democracy, in a state that has been battered by maca extremism, she is making a contrast between a president who will give people who disagree with her a seat at the table and somebody that wants to be a dictator. trumps closing message is about fear, i think the harris message is a little more appealing especially for a big tent party which is the only way to win in the state of wisconsin, trump is trying to rip the country in half. >> what can you tell me about the possible impact of her final pitch on union members because they are going to be a key vote in your state. >> absolutely, wisconsin is a state where workers fought and died for organizing rights

including the bayview massacre in milwaukee county in the 1880s. this is a state that has deep roots, where republicans relentlessly smashed unions and have ripped apart the right to organize across the state. harris calls forth this progressive tradition, our state's motto is literally forward, she talks about it every time she is here. this is the state she spent some time when she was a kid. cities and suburbs across race and ethnicity, there is the sense that if you are on the side of working people in wisconsin, even though somebody who might not normally be a democrat, they will vote for democrats, it is energizing, hearing this message of working families. so i think this is a very strong way to close wisconsin alongside the freedom message in the democracy message, trump has joked about firing union

messengers, so i think there is a deep contrast. and in this election, i think the economic issue is on the harris said, i think we are going to win the badger state.>> roughly 3.3 million people voted, are you thinking that the 2024 election is going to eclipse those numbers? >> it is possible. we've had more than 1.3 million ballots cast already, that is by far the most in any election, and they're still early voting in madison and milwaukee county, over this weekend, a lot of people have been showing up, and for any democrat who feels like the wind is at their back, you are right, but remember a ton of trump voters in the last two elections have turned out on

election day so it is critical in the last push to recruit everyone you know to cast a ballot. if people want to volunteer to help, they can sign up. we want to make sure that everyone is bringing everyone they know to the polls so that we can smash our turnout records and make this a great night for democrats.>> good luck to you in the badger state. thank you for joining me tonight. we will be right back with a hot weekend tip, stay with us. w. provider about the number one e prescribed h-i-v treatment, biktarvy. biktarvy is a complete, one-pill, once-a-day treatment used for h-i-v in many people whether you're 18 or 80. with one small pill, biktarvy fights h-i-v to help you get to undetectable—and stay there whether you're just starting or replacing your current treatment. research shows that taking h-i-v treatment as prescribed and getting to and staying undetectable prevents transmitting h-i-v through sex. serious side effects can occur, including kidney problems and kidney failure. rare, life-threatening side effects include a buildup of lactic acid and liver problems. do not take biktarvy if you take
