>> thank you, jonathan and ayman, thank you for having me on. i did have an opportunity to speak to the vice president earlier today, shortly after the president endorsed her to be our nominee. and she said that she intended to earn this nomination and that she intends to win this november. and let me begin by thanking president joe biden for the public service that he has given for more than 50 years to our country. selfless service. courageous service. service that truly puts country before self. he has sacrificed so much, he has experienced personal loss, and through it all, he has put our country first. and i join with him and millions of americans as we together endorse our candidate who will lead us forward yet again, the vice president, kamala harris, to be our nominee. she is the person who is best prepared and most qualified. to win this nomination, to defeat donald trump, and most importantly, to win and to govern in the next four years. to move our country forward with democrats in congress, with hakeem jeffries as our next speaker of

i am ayman mohyeldin. let's do it. democrats are not the only ones trying to manage a crisis this week. trump allies are in complete panic mode over the public's growing awareness of project 2025. a 900 page, authoritarian second trump term blueprint to institutionalize trumpism that would roll back lgbtq rights, detain undocumented migrants and put them in camps and staff government institutions with loyalist's. now that the public is becoming aware of this nightmare that donald trump is claiming ignorance about, posting on his failed social media, quote, i know nothing about project 2025. i have no idea who is behind it. i disagree with some of the things they are saying and some of the things they are saying are abysmal. anything they do, i wish them luck, but i have nothing to do with them. chatter surrounding project 20/25 increased this week when the architect of project 2025 went on tv and said this. >> the process of the second american revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be. >> a b

>> great question, ayman. i do not think that debate has any ability to occur. he does not want to go toe to toe with her and he recognizes that assault as we have seen him do it with black female journalists, and with black ceos. he has an issue with black women and it will be a striking contract. he would lose whatever potential he would have and he would lose women and he has significant issues with the family vote already. and that is something that he'll try to debate. and she is quick whited and someone who is well learned and very well read. and she is not someone he wants to go hard on and paint on. and they will present a level of racism that we have not seen and we need to be ready for that and kamala harris and her campaign will be ready for it. and to be quite frank, the rnc, the republican party as well as donald trump have been ready and willing to go against kamala harris for quite some time when announced vp. they were ready to press in. they have been wanting to attack her for a very long time. i think his proxies will do just that. for kamala h
