i didn't know that donald trump had turned to the aide and said, so what. also didn't know that in a private lunch, pence had said to trump after he lost and sometime in mid november, pence had said to donald trump, you know, you may be you should just give it up. i'm paraphrasing here. and try to run again in 2024. and trump said, i don't know. 2024 seems like a long away way. another really striking thing here that isn't related to mike pence is that trump, jack smith has uncovered how donald trump basically sidelined all the campaign attorneys, or many of them, who said to him point-blank we're not going to win in this election fraud claim that you're making. we haven't won any of these claims. it's not going to work. that is when donald trump decided to announce that he was choosing some additional campaign leadership in the form of rudy giuliani, victoria tensing, her husband, and others who were telling what he wanted to hear, which is that he could stay in power even though he had lost the election. >> let me also read part of the filing that gives us

>> this is donald trump.ing an olympic style flip on the issue earlier september. >> this will be the most important election in the history of our country. whether it is mail-in ballots, early voting, you have got to get out and vote. >> now, vice presidential nominee, j.d. vance, urging americans to vote early. it might be the only way that donald trump wins read >> we may not like election season over election day, but it is what it is. we have to use every method we can to get out there and vote. early voting, vote by mail, whether voting on election day. >> helping panelists rewrite as well. their boss can keep his own rewrite in order. contradicting himself over and over again on the trail. watch. >> now we have this stupid stuff where you can vote 45 days early. i wonder what the [ bleep ] happens during that 45 days. mail-in ballots are treacherous. lockboxes, they are horrible. >> wait for it. in michigan, insulting his earned it with his own early voting drive. >> how many people have voted so far?

donald trump was indicted by federal grand juries. me ask you, though, you said they're disgruntled employees. trump praised both kelly and milley and said kelly was, quote, one of the best people i've ever worked with in addition to those two trump national security advisers, two defense secretaries and even his vice president all say he's unfit to be president. why should the american people hire donald trump when the people who worked most closely with him say that he's unfit to serve? >> the people who worked most closely with him, most of them are supporting this ticket. you mentioned one person -- two people are disgruntled ex-employees, kristen, who donald trump fired. he said something nice about them and now he fired them and now that person is attacking donald trump and it's important because the american media has to be honest. why is it, kristen, that john kelly doesn't like donald trump? it's not about personality. it's about policy, and i think the american people have the right to know that donald trump rejected that joh

and donald trump back where he belongs. of course the biggest difference that is a lot to say because there are a lot of differences. kamala harris is more of the same on this wide open seven border and donald trump is saying we are going to shut it down. we are going to build a wall. you're going to reimpose deportations and we are going to put american citizens back in charge of their own country. it is hard to overstate how bad, harris been on this. from the moment she came into the oval office, she bragged about undoing donald trump successful border policies. she said we are going to suspend deportations. she said we are going to make it harder for people legally in this country to get taken out of the country. she said it was dispassionate to allow mexican drug cartels to have free reign over united states of america. you know what -- putting out the sex trafficking and drug trafficking cartels have been doing in this country. she is not just rolling out the red carpet for illegal aliens. pommel harris is promising to

vice president harris started her campaign calling donald trump weird, saying she wanted to restore joyusly, a shift now casting trump as a real threat to democracy. do you think that kamala harris is giving voters enough reason to vote for her instead of just against donald trump? >> well, that's a great question. look, protecting american democracy, ain't nothing more important than that. protecting a woman's right to control her own body which -- which trump opposes, nothing -- to me, enormously important. the fact that donald trump thinks that climate change is a hoax in opposition to every scientist who studied the issue has also been important. if you're asking me do i think there should be more focus on economics, on the fact that over the last 50 years there's been a massive transfer of wealth from the bottom 90% to the top 1% to the fact that 60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck while the billionaire classes never had it so good, while donald trump wants to give even more tax breaks to billionaires. you talked a moment ago with vance about their idea to eliminate a

donald trump called it a host.hat we've seen out of their administration -- we've seen this investment. we've seen massive investments. the biggest in global history that we've seen in the inflation reduction act. ohio taking the technology that we invented and making it here. 200,000 drops across the country. my farmers know climate change is real. 500 your droughts. 500 year floods. what they are doing is adapting. this has allowed them to tell me , i harvest corn, soybeans, wind. we are producing more natural gas and oil than any time we ever had. we are producing more clean energy. the solution for us is to continue to move forward. climate change is real. reducing our impact is absolutely critical. this is not a false choice. you can do that at the same time you are creating the jobs that we are seeing across the country. that's exactly what this administration has done. we are becoming an energy superpower for the future. that's what absolute he makes sense. then we start thinking about, how do we mitigate th

is lying about, voted for donald trump, 61%. it is a republican town. and not one of the thousands of trump voters in springfield, ohio has come forward to try to help donald trump pushes lie about springfield, ohio, not one which is worth keeping in mind for those of you who might worry about what disappointed trump voters might do on election day or election night or at any point that they think donald trump has not won the election, i for one think that they will do exactly what they did last time. donald trump lost the election. it was called by the networks on saturday, november 7. nothing. there was literally dancing in the streets in america and democratic cities and there was the same quiet, silence from the losing side of the presidential election that we have always seen. that's what actually happened the day donald trump officially lost. yes, a very tiny percentage of trump supporters decided to get violent in washington dc two months later on january 6 but most of the people who attended donald trump to rally that day

that's who donald trump is. those facts, those facts that we know about what donald trump did, including what he did when our capitol was under siege, those facts do not come from donald trump's political opponents, those facts come from the people closest to him. they are the ones who testified that donald trump did not want to stop the violent attack on our capitol. when he learned that vice president pence was not going to abandon his oath and help trump seize power, trump sent out a tweet attacking pence and further inflaming the mob. one of trump's aides testified that shortly after that this aide received a phone call alerting him that the vice president had been evacuated for his own safety from his office off the floor of the senate. this aide recalled rushing to the dining room to tell trump hoping that this information would convince him to take immediate action to ensure the vice president's safety. instead, after this aide delivered that news, donald trump looked up at him and said, so what. he said,

to donald trump's. he has been making the case about harris and now is on the trail with her. fox news, she drew over 7 million people. what you make of the number that she drew and mark cuban's involvement? >> mark loves to troll donald trump. the rival in terms of reality television shows. you saw the harris campaign bring him out because nothing annoys him more than the idea that he is a fake businessman, a tv businessman who did not really succeed. donald trump. he went bankrupt six times and relied on his father's money. mark cuban is a way to get under donald trump's skin. the fox interview, it shows that fox viewers wanted to see her in their territory. they will not watch a lot of the other media. they will only feel comfortable to watch her on fox to see how she holds up. she was not necessarily going to win them over but she got the message through for those who otherwise would have never seen her talk before. it shows that she is strong. she is willing to take on tough questions. he is not. h

[aplausos] reportero: el foro comunitario con donald trump permitiÓ a 13 personas cuestionar a donaldan en cultivos. >> si usted deporta esta gente quiÉn harÍa el trabajo? >> queremos trabajadores que vengan legalmente. tienen que amar nuestro paÍs. reportero: jorge dijo cÓmo le pareciÓ la respuesta. >> para mÍ le hizo falta. no quedÉ convencido si va a dejar a la gente o deportar. >> muy preocupante para mÍ. reportero: ramiro gonzÁlez preguntÓ sobre el ataque del capitolio en 2021, y dijo que con la respuesta decidiÓ su voto. >> no voy a votar por Él. reportero: teresa preguntÓ a kamala harris sobre las virtudes de trump, e hizo lo mismo con donald trump sobre harris. >> puede reconocer algunas virtudes. respondiÓ. le agradecÍ mÁs esta respuesta. reportero: republicanos calificaron el foro como positivo. >> muy concreto con las respuestas a las preguntas. preguntas interesantes. reportero: demÓcratas critican a donald trump. >> Él solamente quiere implementar crueldad. habla de inmigrantes de una forma ofensiva. >> sabemos que tiene un voto duro. hay muchos que lo apoyan sin condicio

i think donald j. trumpur next president and that can't happy soon enough. >> if it is free and fair, does that not undermine people's confidence in the election? >> no, it shouldn't because what i'm saying there is what the constitution provides, what the supreme court has affirmed time after time, what history has affirmed. listen, democrats have objected to slates of electors in every single election this century when a republican president has won. every single time. >> and yet they all conceded. >> and yet they've conceded. >> yes. >> and that's the point. >> former president trump has yet to concede. >> the process works and we have the peaceful transfer of power. we will in 2020 and we will in 2024 and everyone can sigh and take a deep breath that our system will work. we have the greatest system in the history of the world because we live in the greatest country in the world, but that last part is in jeopardy right now. this is a decisive election and everybody knows it and that's why we'll be given

here is the way vice president harris set it at that packed rally in georgia tonight. >> donald trump intends to impose a 20% trump national sales tax on everyday basic necessities. that will cost the average family nearly $4000 a year. >> you know the opponent is worried in a political campaign when they use the language that the opposition is using against them to try to defend themselves. that is what donald trump did today in a desperate life of a social media post, saying i am not proposing a national sales tax as the democrats say in their advertisements against me. dems know what they're saying is a blatant lie. that, of course, is a lie. i am imposing tariffs on other countries that take advantage of us, hardly a national sales tax. these tariffs are paid for by the abusing country, not the american consumer. they do not cause inflation and will make america rich again. these tariffs are paid by the abusing country. that is the trump lie. it is a lie that donald trump is gotten away with for almost 10 years now because none of the reports that the new york times or the washing

donald trump saying. donald trump's response was a written statement simply calling him a total degenerate. he did not issue a statement saying hitler did not do some good things. donald trump could have issued a statement saying that, but he didn't. donald trump knows that he has the american nazi supporters out there who are going to vote for him. actual american nazis. a small sliver of trump voters but he needs every one of them. donald trump knows he needs every total degenerate nazi voter in every swing state to vote for him. so donald trump cannot afford the lose a single one of them and that is why he refused to condemn hitler today and only condemned john kelly. what are the good things? what are the good things hitler did? that is the first question for donald trump for any reporter next allowed to ask a question of trump. what are the good things hitler did? hitler is known for trying to exterminate every jewish person living in europe and hopes to exterminate every jew living in the world. he

what can we expect to hear from donald trump tonight? >> reporter: well, jonathan, the campaign wants the closing message to be all about immigration and the economy. those are two things that the campaign wants the former president to focus on. of course, we have seen him time and time again go off script and off message from that, but pennsylvania in particular, the economy as it pertains to energy. this is a state that relies heavily on its oil and gas industry. that is something that the former president knows and this is a message he has tried to deliver here time and time again. that is part of what we expect to hear from him tonight. look. pennsylvania, this is the state that both trump and vice president, harris have visited more times than any other state since july. this could really be the leachman in the entire thing. you see it this weekend. crisscrossing the state, he is outside of pittsburgh today. he is going to be in the philly area tomorrow, then in lancaster. we just learned moments ago that he will be headed to the st

from the washington times today, it is quoting donald trump showing -- he said donald trump showed shencompetent. what was your read on the takeaways from that interview? >> he did come at her with several tough questions. he led with immigration. he interrupted her a number of times. she seemed more prepared for that interview that she has been for previous interviews. she came prepared with an answer about how she would be different than joe biden. she said i will be having my own administration. i will be different. she came prepared with answers about immigration. she pivoted a lot to talking about donald trump. brett did challenger in many ways. she did go into the lions den. >> what is the al smith dinner? >> the al smith dinner is a traditional -- it is catholic run. a dinner that has been happening for several decades. the big lure to it is presidential candidates -- it has been tradition for a very long time, i cannot even remember the number of years -- >> i think it aids back -- it aids back to the 1960's. >> several decades. it -- presidential candidates go out there. payin

trump tavar, that is, in the territory of donald trump. trump now acts as a private person, and he has a very good relationship with putin, as he said. if donald trump wins, america first. hardly anyone...else in america could pronounce those words after two years of russia's war against ukraine. you are watching the weekly video podcast of radio svoboda state situation. today we are talking about what donald trump means by a fair deal for ukraine? and why ukraine was not mentioned at all at the vice-presidential debate in the usa. well, the navigator is the ear. the situation will be professor of political science at baylar university in texas serhii kudelya. sergey, congratulations. hello, rostislav. greetings. so what do we have? we have the fact that volodymyr zelenskyi's visit to the united states became politically balanced, precisely because a last-minute meeting with republican nominee donald trump. by the way, trump said after the meeting that he and zelensky are both. they want a fair deal, and trump repeated twice, talking about

what does donald trump mean?s that mean he will urge members of the military, leaders in the military to act independent of the orders of president biden in the pentagon? it's not clear. i want to let you look at a statement from a spokesman for donald trump. this is not an effort to suggest that there's a misunderstanding between donald trump and his former chief of staff, but it's an effort to denigrate the reputation of john kelly. you see this from the spokesman. he writes, quote, john kelly has beclowned himself. he failed to serve his president while working as chief of staff. he suffered from trump derangement syndrome. this has come up on the campaign trail minutes after michael published the stories talking about it on the campaign stage. >> let's listen. >> trump made it very clear that this is an election about donald trump taking full control of the military to use against his political enemies, taking full control of the department of justice to prosecute those who disagree with him, taking full cont

so donald trump is in a nutshell her closing argument. quickly to charlie's point about trump and how he's prepared the stage for rejecting this election, in north carolina the person who is standing next to him was the congressman who publicly -- a republican congressman who refuted trump's own lies about the fema aid for hurricane victims in his own district and yet there he is standing beside donald trump endorsing him in the same way that ohio governor mike dewine refuted the lies about eating the dogs in springfield, ohio, and yet is publicly endorsing him. >> tonight donald trump was at an event sponsored by this group linked to michael flynn. michael flynn openly called for suspending the constitution and having a new election in 2020, yet the trump campaign is currently saying his opponent, vp harris, is the radical one. on what grounds is he making that argument about her given what he's saying and doing and who he's surrounding himself with? >> look, he's surrounded himself to your point with michael flynn, somebody who basically

that is who donald trump is. those facts that we know about what donald trump did, including what he did when our capital was under siege, those facts do not come from donald trump's political opponents. those facts come from the people closest to him. they are the ones who testified that donald trump did not want to stop the violent attack on our capital. when he learned that vice president pence was not going to abandon his oath and help trump seize power, trump sent out a tweet attacking pens and further inflaming -- pence and further inflaming the mob. one of trump's aides testified that shortly after that, this aide received a phone call alerting him that the vice president had been evacuated for his own safety from his office off the floor of the senate. this aide recalled rushing to the dining room to tell trump, hoping that this information would convince him to take immediate action to ensure the vice president's safety. instead, after this aide delivered that news, donald trump looked up at him and said

donald trump's words. not one reporter ever asked donald trump about that statement. not one. the day donald trump called kamala harris supporters garbage, no one wrote a headline about that. it wasn't a news story. the poisonous american candidate for president who uses hitler's language constantly and calls democrats garbage, that was not news. but the very same news media that ignored all the times donald trump has called american citizens and american voters scum and garbage tried to turn joe biden's use of the word garbage into a controversial news story today. to do so, they had to refuse to listen to the actual sentence joe biden spoke. they had to refuse to look at the written words of that sentence. they had to refuse to understand english, grammar. they had to refuse to understand what a singular possessive is. they had to refuse to understand what apostrophe s is. they had to refuse to remember what they learned in elementary school about the english language. and they can do that because this campaign is being covered by some of the best reporters i have ever seen

donald trump had four years.four years to do this and he promised you, america, how easy would be. i will build you a big beautiful wall and mexico will pay for it. less than 2% of the wall got built and mexico didn't pay a dime ut here we are nine years after he came down the escalator, dehumanizing people and telling them what he was going to do. as far as the deportation plan, at one point senator vance said it was so unworkable to be laughable. that's where we're at. pass the bill. she was signing. >> margaret: governor, your time is up her senator, the question was with you separate appearance from their children even if their kids are u.s. citizens? you of one minute. >> senator vance: my point is we have massive child separations thanks to kamala harris' open border. i didn't accuse kamala harris of inviting drug mules. i said she let cartels operate freely. we know they use children as drug mules and it's a disgrace that has to stop. what tim said doesn't pass the smell test. for three years, harris went

donald trump's top general. he has called trump, and i quote, fascist to the core, and said, quote no one has ever been as dangerous to this country. so think about that, general milley served in uniform for more than 40 years, commanding american forces around the world. he has confronted some of america's worst enemies, and he is saying no one has ever been as dangerous to our country as donald trump. america must heed this warning because anyone who tramples on our democratic values as donald trump has, anyone who has called for the, quote, termination of the constitution of the united states as donald trump has, must never again stand behind the seal of the president of the united states! [ cheers and applause ] never again! never again! [ applause ] >> and to those -- and to those who are watching, if you share that view, no matter your party, no matter who you voteded for last time, there is a place for you in this campaign. [ cheers and applause ] >> the coalition we have built has room for everyone who i

calendar mix-up aside, donald trump's objective is clear, this was donald trump on national television this morning saying that he would meet with the owner of one of the nation's biggest cable channels and pressure him into not running any ads that criticize him or put on any gif's that criticize him. any other election in america, campaign defining scandal. with trump, it is just friday, hardly a blip on the radar. yesterday, trump threatened the cbs news show 60 minutes on truth social referencing fully fabricated scandal that he told 60 minutes to release the tapes saying, we can do it the nice way or the hard way. as a presidential candidate, pretty empty threat. as president, it is not. trump is very clearly telegraphing what he will do to the media if he regains power. he wants the media to bend to his will or pay the price. again, he has been saying that over and over and over again, out loud and on camera. >> i go a step further, so bad they should lose their license and take 60 minutes off the air. the new york times is one of the most dishonest of all, i watched this new yor

i think we know the answer as it relates to donald trump. >> mitch, you heard vaugn remind us donald trump lost new york by 23 points. >> yeah. >> why would he be at msg in new york city in a state he has no chance of winning? >> you know what, i love new york. i go to new york all the time. it's one of the great cities of the world. he's going to get his rump handed to him in new york. if he wants to go to the ballet and go to broadway and waste his time there, you know, because it is a waste of time for him. he's not going to win new york. there are nine days left. we have a choice to make in this country. it's the most critical choice that we're going to make. of course kamala harris is criss crossing the battleground states. she's been in wisconsin, she's of course in philadelphia today. she will be in michigan and she will go everywhere, talk to anybody to make sure that they know what the consequences of this choice are. i could care less where donald trump is today. i know where our candidate is and she's working really, really ard to make sure the american people are in a posi

a reporter's question vice president harris talked about why she is now responding directly to donald trumpou have been doing more trump rapid response responding to him in near real time, it feels like something slightly different from the way you were handling him before, and i am wondering why that shift? >> he's becoming increasingly unstable and unhinged, and it requires that response. >> joining me now, msnbc political analyst basil's michael junior, columbia university. basil is the one on the right. and jennifer rubin, opinion writer for the washington post, msnbc political analyst and author of resistance how women saved democracy from donald trump. thank you both very much for being here. i'm going to start with you, jen . you say the final and most effective critique against the oldest residential nominee of a major party is being delivered by vice president harris. talk about that. >> he is actually running clips the reality of donald trump is very disturbing, and unfortunately he has been sanitized, he's been sane washed, which is now a term. how insane, how tired he is, and sh

and loyalty to donald trump, i love donald trump and i'm very loyal to donald trump that i speak for president trump and i speak for myself loyalty first to the american people. that's why like donald trump because he's loyal to the american people. [applause] it sounds so common sense and it sounds so obvious that when you have a vice president kamala harris whose opening the southern border and giving free health care benefits to illegal aliens can we just get back to president who cares about the citizens of his own country? that is the responsibility of an american leader and that's why i support donald trump because he actually cares about the people who built this country and these fighting for their future, not the future of people who don't go along in this country in the first place. [applause] >> senator vance vance thank you for taking questions first of all. back in me senate democrats failed to carry forward the bipartisan security bill. you are among the senators who voted to filibuster and chuck schumer said donald trump is trying to pressure republicans to vote against

and a lot of them trust donald trump on this more. s cut his lead on that certainly from when it was trump versus biden in this race but i want you to respond to something because speaking of billionaires, elon musk today in a tweet said, quote, it sounds about right when someone on twitter was predicting that if donald trump wins, there'll be an initial severe overreaction in the economy and that the market will tumble if that happens, the person later said there'll be a rapid recovery to a healthier, sustainable economy that came after. but what was your reaction to that comment from elon musk, someone who obviously has played a major role in this race saying the quiet part out loud just being quite open about what economists, nobel prize winners, people who have real experience in an economy. >> i have been saying all along that trump does not have an economic plan to help families. and that in fact many of the things that he's talking about doing by raising tariffs dramatically, by rounding up millions of people who live here and f

from donald trump. it's the kind of rhetoric we've been hearing consistently. but you're right, he's dug in much deeper on it. and given repeated opportunities to say, no, i was speaking off the cuff or didn't mean that, he's making very clear that's what he believes. that the military may be used and may be deployed against people he views as enemies of the country, people like adam schiff and nancy pelosi that you're talking about. these comments put together with what we heard from general kelly, a decorated four star general, are fodder for vice president harris. she talked about them in a town hall with cnn last night, trying to make sure the choice here, how stark it is. what the country will look like. now different it may be if he is re-elected president versus her being elected president, mika. she is -- you know, we talked about the campaign of joy coming out of the convention in chicago and all of those things, and that's there. that was real. enthusiasm was juiced, and her numbers went way u

>> look, it's donald trump saying what donald trump typically does, which when the harris campaign said, look these guys are weird. trump and vance, they might have had a point, but so much of this is factored in again, when donald trump, when, when the comments came out on access hollywood, it was a huge bombshell of a political story, but ultimately didn't sway votes voters because this is all factored in on donald trump. it's why he sort of teflon on things like that. even when he says appalling things in front of a cardinal at a catholic dinner, which i say as a catholic, it's factored in on him voters know who donald trump is, whether they like them or they don't like him, they're still trying to figure out what they think about kamala harris asked today about differences between her and biden it to it's a question she's been facing on the campaign trail, but it is remarkable that it seems like any move she makes, it is obviously highly scrutinized. it should be. she's a presidential candidate, but trump does say things like that. they don't get anywhere near the attention that som

it was the calm, cool, collected kamala harris versus the chaos of donald trump. and i think that speaks to the way trump governed and would govern going forward with all kinds of chaos and the approach to kamala harris is taken not just in this campaign, but throughout her entire career, i've known or 20 years someone who's cams, someone who is cool, collected and who delivers for others, someone who's there for the people. and i thought she made a really important case, not just about our democracy being threatened in the risk of donald trump, but i thought she also laid out some really concrete plans on how she's going to make people's lives better while donald trump is injecting chaos and keeping an enemies list, she's talking about building housing for folks, making childcare costs less carrying for your elderly parent common sense things that are on the minds of the good people of pennsylvania and i would are you on behalf of the people on the minds of americans as well? and i think kamala harris hit it right tonight and did an excellent job and i thought the

the campaign that the democrats ran was that donald trump hates us. i felt safe around the country when trump was in office. i don't feel safe with kamala in office. that speaks more. >> trump is definitely bad news for this country, and it's unconscionable for me to want to vote for a man like that. i would not with a protest vote, vote for trump. >> some would argue a vote for jill stein is a vote for donald trump. that's a moral decision i'm going to make, that i cannot put a vote behind a man that, obviously, have this nefarious intent. >> i could not find a kamala harris voter to go on camera. >> yasmin, thank you very much. that's going to do it for me this hour.

but we will start with the damming on camera confession of sorts from donald trump himself. the ex-president fielding questions from voters at a univision town hall on wednesday, including a question from a former trump supporter. here is the extraordinary exchange almost in its entirety. so once again, you can reach your own conclusions about it. >> i want to give you the opportunity to try to win back my vote. okay? your -- i'm going to say action, and may be in action during your presidency and the last few years sort of, you know, was a little disturbing to me. what happened during january 6th, and the fact that, you know, you waited so long to take action while you're supporters were attacking the capital. coronavirus. the public was misled during coronavirus, and that may be more lives could've been saved if we would've been informed better. and also, people in your administration who don't support you. i'm curious how people so close to you and your administration no longer want to support you. why would i want to support you? if you would answer these questions for me

we have heard donald trump say before that jd - level. ching, much closer to those missiles from iran and the chaos in the middle east than we are in the us. we are separated by an ocean. but people realise, when you have a vice president who is unqualified for thejob vice president who is unqualified for the job like kamala harris, bad things can happen. the borders are who allowed millions of illegals to enter the country, the last one in the room with the disastrous afghan withdrawal was made, and cast the tie—breaking vote with spending bills that caused inflation. the vice president matters. , . :, matters. the situation in the middle east, _ matters. the situation in the middle east, neither- matters. the situation in the middle east, neither of - matters. the situation in the| middle east, neither of them answered the very first question, what would they do if israel came to them and asked for a pre—emptive strike? it fora pre—emptive strike? it was a bit of a false binary choice. the reality is it wouldn't happen if president trump

let's talk about what donald trump did tonight. he was at an event sponsored by this group linked to michael flynn. michael flynn openly called for suspending the constitution and having a new election in 2020 yet the trump campaign is currently saying his opponent, vp harris, is the radical one. on what grounds is he making that argument about her given what he is saying and doing and who he is surrounding himself with. >> is surrounded himself with michael flynn, someone who basically things the military -- by the way, as a retired general, things the military should basically be able to take over the country from the candidate he wants doesn't win an election so just flynn himself is about as extreme and radical as you can possibly get. i watched this rally tonight from beginning to end so that others don't have to know basically trump went in and professed his deep affection and appreciation and love for christianity and accused kamala harris of wanting to and christmas. >> well, she certainly doesn't want to and christmas. >> h

have i talked to donald trump about his calls with vladimir putin? i've never had the conversation with trump in my life. even if it is true, is there something wrong with speaking to world leaders? is there anything wrong with engaging in diplomacy? kamala harris's approach has been to hide from the american people and hide from world leaders. you know what that has gotten us? we were on the world -- on the verge of world war iii. it is a complete failure of a foreign policy. [applause] one of my favorite donald trump moments of his first presidency, you may remember this. do you know kim jong-un? he is the leader of north korea. let's be honest. kim jong-un has not skipped many meals. donald trump goes to kim jong-un and he meets with him and all the photographers come in and president trump looks at the photographers and says all right, everybody. make us look good. make us look very thin. kim jong-un shoots up like this kind of offended a little bit. what it showed is -- i see a lot of you laughing. i'm not just trying to make fun of kim jong-un.

that's the rub with donald trump. it's all about the amusements and entertainment and yucking it up and dumbing you down enough to be stupid enough to buy in to these narratives about other people, about our country, and about another man's genitalia. >> you know what it is though, michael? this is what they want. they like it. this is who they are. this is who those voters are. so we need to accept the fact that there are people in this country who are perfectly fine with all of the issues that donald trump has presented to us, the fact that he doesn't respect democracy, doesn't respect women. he's a sexual abuser, a predator, a liar, and he wants to be a dictator on day one. he can sit there and rant and rave incoherently at times at rallies, cracking jokes, and to make the determination of what the future looks like in those states, those people need to look hard, the ones still undecided and say, is this the future of america that we want? is this the leadership we want? we are coming to a cross roads in this coun

it's going to be donald trump or me. if it is donald trump, you can see what that is going to be. it will be him sitting at that desk stewing over his enemies list. he is full of grievance. he is full of dark language that is about retribution and revenge. >> as we prepare for a nailbiter finished, motivated voters have shown upper early voting here in new york as well as in michigan, and they are talking to nbc news about the choices they are making. >> i have heard so much about trump being angry and he is a fascist and a dictator. but the problem is, when i listen to him, i don't hear any of that. >> this is a huge thing. i never thought i would see a woman be a presidents. a black woman at that. this is a game changer and she's going to open doors for other women. >> we reporters and analysts in place, and first we are going to turn to abc's bond billiard is made his way inside madison square garden here in new york city. talk about the mood there. is there a lot of music underway? what's happening on the stage behind you? >> right. we are waiting for the speakers are to be gi

we have seen donald trump, less is more for donald trump right now. because clearly, cognitively he can't sit down and put together coherent sentences for 30 or 40 minutes. so he is essentially saying let's hide the candidate so his voters and his sycophants will just go with the republican party candidate. it does not really matter what he says. where are the demands for donald trump's policy? we know that there are lot of taking away, but what is the future of a second term donald trump residency look like? those questions are not being demanded of the former president, and we know for a myriad of reasons why. we could talk about gender studies, political science, race and ethnicity. the list goes on and on as to why he is being held to a totally different standard than vice president harris. >> well, trump has concepts of plans. but natosha, we started talking about these numbers. these early voting numbers are wild to me. more than 1 million votes have been cast in georgia in four days of early voting. but we got to back out a little bit. has you'

these voters actually agree that donald trump is not a good human being. ing on guardrails as you said. i think democrats have to make two points. those guardrails are gone. you'll get the full, unvarnished trump. that means the politicalization of basic services you expect from the federal government up to and including social security and medicare. trump had no problem putting his names on checks that went out during covid. what's to stop him from saying when we put out your social security checks, we'll ask you your party affiliation and we'll determine the size of those checks on how good a maga fight you've been. they're not pre post rouse. the second argument is cost of living. this is another issue for these voters. donald trump wants to raise costs by up to $4,000 with his sales tax. kamala harris has planned to put $6,000 in the hands of every american with a child tax credit. we need to drive that home. >> can we talk about the guardrails and donald trump in general. i know there's a sense of community among many of the veterans in congress. i won

but i think what it shows is the chinese recognize kamala harris provides weak leadership and donald trumpvides strong leadership so they are trying to do everything they can to prevent trump from getting back in the white house. >> abc news. my question for you is do you have any reaction to the wall street journal report about elon musk and russian president vladimir putin being in contact since october 2022? do you have concerns about the national security aspect of it? >> i have two responses. first of all, elon is a friend and obviously a big supporter of the president and of mine. we are grateful for the support. but i'm not his post person. i will not stand up here and try to know everything elon musk has ever done. the second thing that occurs to me about this is it is almost like the democrats are running the exact same playbook 2016, but with different names in different times. here's what i know about elon musk. i know there's a lot of people in areas hit hard by hurricane helene who have internet service because elon musk has been working hard to make that happen. i know that e

donald trump called it a hoax.hen joked that these things would make more beach front property to be able to invest in. what we've seen out of the harris administration now, the biden-harris administration, we've seen this investment. we've seen massive investments, the biggest in global history that we've seen in the inflation reduction act has created jobs all across the country. 2000 in jeffersonville, ohio, taking the ev technology that we invented and making it here. 200,000 jobs across the country. the largest solar manufacturing plant in north america sits in minnesota. my farmers know climate change is real. they've seen 500-year droughts, floods back-to-back. what they're doing is adapting and this has allowed them to it he will tell me, i harvest coin, soybean and wind. we're producing more natural gas and oil at any time than we ever had. we're producing more clean energy. so the solution for us is to continue to move forward, that climate change is real. reducing our impact is absolutely critical. but t

"i cannot in good conscience endorse donald trump this year." his defense secretary: "do you think trump can be trusted with the nation's secrets ever again?" "no. i mean, it's just irresponsible action that places our service members at risk, places our nation's security at risk." his national security advisor: "donald trump will cause a lot of damage." "the only thing he cares about is donald trump." and the nation's former highest ranking military officer: "we don't take an oath to a king or queen. or to a tyrant or a dictator. and we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator." take it from the people who knew him best: donald trump is too big a risk for america. i'm kamala harris and i approve this message. >>> with just three weeks to go until election day, vice president harris is on a blue wall battleground blitz this week with planned visits to pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin. this comes as our new nbc news poll has a deadlock race nationally and as part of a push to engage a key democratic group, the black vote, the harris campaign
