it's personal now. >> chuck todd said no one has had this kind of polling go on to win the election. president biden a few months back said on thursday, i can win. watch. >> you earlier expressed confidence in your vice president. if your team came back and show you data that she would fare better against donald trump would you reconsider your decision to stay in the race? >> unless they came back and said there is no way you can win. no one is saying that. no paul says that. >> even my kids wanted to watch the press conference, 25 million wanted to get a sense and he did fine enough. just enough, he knew he was calling on, was told who to call on, who knows if you know what was coming and they wisely cloaked it in the nato stuff so it ended up being a conversation about nato, half the questions which were easy for him to riff on the contrast with trump, he saved his presidency in some ways even though i don't think he had a good performance it was good enough. here is editorial boards, the washington post came out with another editorial saying this. biden remains in denial, needs to

chuck todd has been sitting on this nugget for a couple years. >> i had a cabinet secretary out of thelue ask me, do you really think, he can't run again like this? >> lawrence: he did not think he should tell us about it? >> steve: now he is. >> lawrence: third hour of "fox and friends" starts now and remember, mornings are better with friends. president biden will be taking the podium for a solo press conference as part of day three of the ongoing nato summit. >> steve: this is ahead of a sit-down interview planned with nbc monday night austin, texas, as joe fights to save his campaign. jake >> ainsley: and jacqui heinrich is live at the white house with the latest. >> nancy pelosi rejecting his final answer he's remaining in the race and chuck schumer signalling he is open to dumping biden at the top of the ticket and that george clooney oped calling for biden to drop out saying the same joe biden in the debate stage was same guy he was dealing with earlier faltering in old age. politico reported clooney gave former president obama a heads up what he was going to write and obama did

chuck todd, now admitting the white house insiders were telling him about biden's struggles two years ago, chuck, you never thought you should report that, which is why he's part of the cognitive cover up and lie cabal and meanwhile, today, biden's close ally, nancy pelosi, she flat out refused to throw her support fully behind biden, instead ominously urging the president to think about his options this week. because time is running short. she already he already thought about it. he said. he's staying in now, according to axios. even chuck schumer is reportedly open to dumping biden in 2024, and now liberal hollywood elitist. and frankly, i refer to him as an ignorant jackass. george clooney is calling on joe to withdraw from the race with a dramatic op ed in the new york times. he says he knew all of this at that big fundraiser weeks ago, but of course refused to tell you and the american people the truth. another liar. that's part of the cover up. now, keep in min, george clooney isn't just any far left actor. he's one of obama's dear and good friends. this op ed doesn't happen wit

chuck todd, christina for telemundo. white house communications director palmieri and former chief of staff to mike pence, marc short. no shortage of things to discuss on this sunday. chuck, let me start with you. like you, i've been working the phones and hearing panicked calls from democrats. what are you hearing? >> thursday night to friday morning there was full-on panic. everyone was trying to figure out what are the rules of d.c., how could this work, who would get to joe biden or jill biden to get him out of this. over the weekend there was this sort of resignation. there's not much that can be done without his cooperation. this only happens if he chooses to do it, and there appears to be an unofficial memo that said if you want him to get out, don't sate it yet. if you say it publicly, nothing will get him more defiant in this race than an editorial in the newspaper saying get out of this race. you can see it. there's been some public leakage and reporters saying or leaking this. there's about a ten-day window he

chuck todd says, hand wringing about biden isn't anti-biden, it's anti-trump.he sooner biden understands how he got to the white house and why there are so many questions now about whether he should be the democratic party's nominee, the sooner the party can figure out how to move forward. joining us now is chief political analyst chuck todd. i think that's a really good point. this worry about biden isn't because people don't like biden or don't want him to be president. they are worried with him, donald trump has a better chance. so explain why you think the biden team needs to understand 2020. >> i really believe they misinterpreted both 2020 and 2022. to you believe -- obviously biden's message before covid was soul of the nation. that's why he won. but the reality was much different in 2020. we covered this bizarre campaign. we sometimes were anchoring hours together during the 2020 campaign. watching donald trump defeat himself. this many ways, biden didn't have to run a very energy-draining campaign. we saw that trump would complain about it. at the time

i have to say one thing about chuck todd. going to fire ronna mcdaniel -- was going to hire ronna mcdaniel? he said that nbc should apologize to kristen welker for having ronna on the show, forrest kristen welker to have ronna mcdaniel on the show. they are not honest brokers. they are complicit with what's gone on, and i am tired of hearing about it weeks and months and years they do, nicole wallace, not for nothing, i'm not going to shield you from the truth. he walked off your set while you were still talking. >> jesse: you mentioned this to blocks ago, greg. they just sit around and wait for leaks, and then they report them or not. basically conduits for the democrats. >> greg: i guess the real reporters were always local reporters. that follow crime. and once they reach a certain spot, they think, you know what, i'll just surf and rewrite stuff. all these blogs that basically feed off each other. our journalists pick sides, they don't pick stories, and they receive their opinions come almost always, from other people. wh

you heard chuck todd there.ow the "new york times" put it on the first night of the convention trump was his own biggest prop. image for political mobilization, a spectacle for this candidate who we know is by his own admission obsessed with a sorted spectacles. >> >> todd: so the ear bandage was a spectacle. i don't know ebb was shot in the ear and needed a bandage. >> a bullet went through the ear and is he wearing a bandage because he lost part of the ear. we are three days since this man nearly got his head blown off only because he turned his head a little bit more to read some notes that were given to him on a screen around immigration is he alive right now. and msnbc as sick as they're and ari melber as sick as he is, go to hell, ari melber quite frankly because to say something like that, it's a prop? give me a break. show any sort of human dignity in this moment and he couldn't do that as could many on that network quite frankly. >> todd: if i could interject for a moment. we are going to beat up the de

chuck todd now admitting that the whitehouse insiders were telling him about biden's struggles two years. chuck, you never thought you should report that, which is why he is part of the cognitive cover up. and meanwhile today, nancy pelosi, she flat out refused to throw her support, fully behind biden. and instead ominously urging the president to think about his options this week, because time is running short. already thought about it, he said he is staying in. even chuck schumer is reportedly open to dumping biden in 2024. and now liberal hollywood elitists and an ignorant jack ass, george clooney is calling on joe to withdraw from the race, with an op-ed in the new york times, he said he knew all of this at the fundraiser weeks ago, but of course, refused to tell you, and the american people the truth. another liar that is part of the cover up. now keep in mind, george clooney is not just any far left actor, he is one of obama's dear and good friends. this op-ed doesn't happen without barack obama's approval. and george clooney, and chuck todd, and barack obama, they don't get to ove

stuart: nbc chuck todd defended the democrats and elites -- democrat party elites and biden lashed out and said his anger at elites and biden anger at elites is a bit misplacessed and elites that put too much faith if biden that got the democrats into this position. mollie, is biden losing the media and nbc? >> chuck todd is half right there and it is true that the democrat party leaders made it so there wasn't really an open primary. they're the o ones that helped hide biden's condition and noticed you were crazy and should be censored but so did the media. chuck todd is just as much to blame and other democrat leaders and funny to see him "defending" the elites and it was a conspiracy of silence amono-top democrats and top media folks and again, the only reason we have changed their tune now is because they're worry that had biden will lose. they're not concerned about the country or having our military under the congressman of someone who they by their own admission saying he's slipping and can't handle things during the day. they only care about power and so that's the prism throug

. >>> joining us now is nbc news chief political analyst chuck todd.an't think of anyone better to talk to at this moment, because you and i both know of all of the ups and downs in any negotiation on the middle east. let's start there right now. they may have been rushing this out. there's always the possibility that netanyahu and the right wing cabinet members are going to press him to try to play this down. we know there was another friday announcement by the president that was immediately disavowed by netanyahu over the weekend. they were getting close. we did hear -- i was on the briefing and spoke to one of the briefers afterwards that on july 4th it was a significant breakthrough, that hamas had agreed to the earliest stage and was no longer demanding preemptively a full cease-fire before anything else can be done. >> look, this is a prerequisite for biden or any democratic ticket at this point, whether it's biden or harris, to have this not be a hot war in the fall. if this is a hot war when younger folks are back on college campuses and we're

that a biden cabinet member actually told chuck todd the biden could not run.atch this. >> this is really their watergate moment. who knew, what did they know, and what did they do when they found out, because they have covered this up the entire time from the vice president on down. >> it's the biggest political cover-up that we've ever seen maybe in u.s. history, and it's the most consequential as well. these foreign leaders are coming in, prime ministers, heads of state, and they are telling us privately that they're deeply concerned. >> it has made me want to rethink a lot of the biden biography. i still can't believe he ran for president in the first place begin that his family was in crisis in 2018. i can't believe he put his family through this. and now looking at a his behavior now and clinging to this, i, you know, i think the entire narrative on joe biden is going to change in that he was, he's always been -- everything has been about his ambition. and if his ambition comes first. >> but i had a cabinet secretary two years ago -- >> right. >> okay, tw

. >> brian: plus, chuck todd, now you tell us?net secretary two years ago all out of the blue ask me do you really think -- he can't run again like this. >> lawrence: incredible. >> brian: waits two years. he had a show. >> steve: former speaker nancy pelosi 24 hours ago made headlines and then in the afternoon snapped at reporters after comments on joe biden's political future. here's nancy. >> am i speaking english to you? i'm not going to be making any statements about any right now in the hallway. >> lawrence: the second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now, and, remember, mornings are better with friends. >> ainsley: happening today, president biden will be taking the podium for what the white house is calling a big boy news conference as part of day three of the ongoing nato summit. >> brian: right and his rehab tour continues. comes ahead of another sitdown interview planned for monday. >> ainsley: planned. >> brian: she is mocking me in real time. with nbc as he fights to save his re-election bid. >> steve: jacqui hein

joining us now, chief political analyst, chuck todd. good to have you.s of good options for running mates. we have reporting on who she's looking at, who she's having vetted. there's a lot of talk right now about maybe you could call him a front runner in the race to be vp, mark kelly, the senator from arizona? >> yeah, i mean, look there's a lot of reasons why i think when you look at some of her negatives that she needs to balance out, he seems to answer more of them than anybody else on the list. right? particularly the border. i think that's the biggest, you know, sort of thing that's going to be the trump campaign will hit her hard on. no better way to sort of seek a little bit of distance from the biden administration by putting on somebody who was a critic of the biden/harris policies and that's mark kelly. he spent all of the 2022 campaign trying to distance himself from his own party, particularly the white house and what they were doing on the border, constantly saying what they were doing was wrong. you know, i said this about six months ago w

joining me for insight and analysis are nbc news chief political analyst chuck todd, christina londono, rooney, senior washington correspondent for telemundo, marc short, former chief of staff to vice president mike pence and former obama white house communications director jennifer palmieri. welcome to sunday. it's meet the press. from nbc news in washington, the longest running show in television history. this is meet the press with kristen welker. good sunday morning. it is yet another extraordinary moment in the 2024 election cycle, with democrats in a state of crisis after president joe biden delivered a disastrous debate performance that fueled voters top concerns about his age and ability to serve another four years in office. not since the first nixon-kennedy debate in 1960 has a debate had as much potential to shake up a presidential race. this morning, there is widespread panic within the democratic party and questions about whether the president should drop out of the race. i think it was a disaster, i think it was like maybe the worst debate i've ever seen in my entire life

. >> i believe chuck todd interested him never brought it up mr. chairman, good to see you.nk you for being here tell us why you subpoenaed those three from the biden administration. >> every american is seeing up close and personal that joe biden isn't mentally fit to be president of the united states, now, what chuck todd reported is what we've been saying in washington those of us who have been around the white house, and around joe biden, for over a year is that he has been in a steep mental decline, we've been able to determine these three individuals i subpoenaed no name people very behind scenes, staffers, have been leading the cover-up protecting joe biden. they have been limiting his interactions writing note cards saying stand up sit down shake this fern's hand turn around leave head towards exit pediatrics these to me no-name staffers maybe running a shadow government a major cover-up the question do we have a manchurian president are these three staffers part of a shadow government calling shocks with cabinet secretaries confirmed by senate? of they privilege to

today we are finding out that chuck todd has had a major scoop on joe biden for years, he kept it a secretow. >> i had a cabinet secretary two years ago, okay, two years ago, out of the blue ask me, do you really think -- he can't run again, like this? and i said, well you have more interaction with him than i do, and they said, i don't have a lot of interaction with him. this is a pretty senior cabinet secretary. so and this was two years ago. this is -- this is one of those -- you know, it is the classic open secret. it is the story that everyone knows and everyone was afraid to talk about. >> jesse: it is probably mayor pete. why is everyone afraid to talk about it, powers. they said that him in a italian field were cheap fakes, now they say they were not. now the democrats are saying that he has parkinsons. >> he has the classic features of neurodegeneration. it is from degeneration of the world retrieval area. when he turns, it is end block turning, not a quick turn. so that's where the hallmarks of parkinsons, is slow movement. his motor symptoms are degenerater. he has degeneration

. >> chuck todd is in milwaukee. so the meredith, politico national correspondent. from politico is with us who has done extensive reporting on vance. good to have you here. so, chuck, biden was ready for the question about vance and in jd vance, the biden campaign got who they most wanted arguably, but in a new nbc news piece, you write the biden campaign is relieved the pick wasn't rubio, that both rubio and burgum would have been harder to pigeon hold. the vance the best the biden camp could have hoped for? >> if you believe in the biden campaign's theory of the case is that they can create this binary choice for the middle of the road voter which is hey, you may not be, you may not love our positions on x, y, and z, but look at how extreme the maga agenda is. that's what they want to do and the fact of the matter is this is a, this is what i think is the big story so far of this convention is this, you know, and we've been watching it grow and the question has always been is this trump or is this going to be more than just trump. it's pretty clear the eyes and t

in fact, as nbc news chuck todd reports, it is far more common than americans realize. >> reporter: formerican history, the primary process didn't play a big role in how we picked presidents. the convention picked the candidate. >> the delegates chose john w. davis of west virginia. >> for the first 150 years of political conventions, that's all there was, was conflict, it could go to 100 -- >> reporter: healthy conflict. >> healthy conflict, sometimes not. >> reporter: in 1952, republicans nominated dwight eisenhower for president. two weeks late, democrats met in chicago without a clear nominee. earlier in the year, president harry truman tried to lobby then illinois governor adly stevenson to accept the nomination. >> truman asks him to be his successor. he wasn't sure he would run again and he said, why don't you run for the democratic nomination? and stevenson said, no, i would rather run for re-election as governor of illinois. >> reporter: in late july, the democrats met in chicago and stevenson gave them a welcome speech that changed everything, whether he wanted it to or not. >

as chuck todd explains, the convention process used to look different than it does today.mals, politics biggest show. >> reporter: for most of the american history, the primary process didn't play a big role in how we picked presidents. the convention picked the candidate. >> the delegates chose john w. davis of west virginia. >> for the first 150 years of political conventions, that's all there was conflict at the go to ballots, healthy conflict, sometimes not. >> reporter: in 1952, republicans nominated dwight eisenhower for president. two weeks later democrats met in chicago without a clear nominee. earlier in the year, president harry truman tried to lobby then illinois governor adlai stevenson to accept the nomination. >> truman asked him to be a successor. he said why don't you run for the democratic nomination. stevenson turned it down. he said no, i'd rather run as reelection of governor of illinois. >> reporter: stephenson gave them a welcome speech that changed everything, whether he wanted it to or not. >> self criticism is the secret weapon of democracy. adlai

also with me, nbc political chuck todd and julie brzezinski.t can you tell us about the vp vetting process. i feel like we just went through this. oh, that's right, it was one of the republicans. >> it is the season. because it certainly introduces us to a lot of up-and-coming people in the party and governing and not well-known to the rest of the country. the short list experience is one that is impossible set of questions for those whose names are on it. and there's as a little bit of love being shown in a broader way. the short list can be serious candidates. it can be a nice message to someone who has been good to you over the years, and ultimately, it is the decision of the candidate, infused with a lot of data, things like where can one of these individuals be helpful, where can they compliment the ticket and, of course, change with kamala harris at the top of that. she is the one, others on that list, for example, josh shapiro, governor of the great commonwealth of pennsylvania had been an attorney general. that matching a like experienc

i heard chuck todd the other day talking about i'm rethinking the way i have thought about joe biden biden for years. he has been there for 50 years, chuck. hhe is not any different. still a guy extremely ambitious, power hungry and surrounded by inis you larr group living in the white house all living and want to keep him in power regardless of whether that's good for the nation or not. upper lawrence lawrence same chuck todd had a cabinet member tell him report for two years. >> didn't report it. >> lawrence: exactly. wisconsin radio host misediting. biden campaign called and asked for two edits before it aired given the gravity of the current political moment. the stakes in this election and importance of public scrutiny. public officials and the highest office. we believe it is important to share this information. i mean, they just keep punching, punching, punching, but we're just now learning about this. do you think it would be acceptable to edit a trump interview? >> look, you know, i'm not against, you know, having -- sometimes you have to have pretaped interviews, my questio

let's bring in dasha burns also here in milwaukee along with nbc news chief political analyst chuck todd presidential historian douglas brinkley. dasha, what do you know about the changing of the speech? >> reporter: katy, the basic run of show hasn't changed. everything about the tone, the tenor and the spirit has absolutely changed in spirit, in tone and in tenor. this was going to be a very classically trumpian event. his speech, as he told the washington examiner was going to be a humdinger, was going to go after biden, do all the things we've come to expect from the former president at his rallies. the event was going to be raucous, at times potentially incendiary as we've seen at these events. that now seems to be something that the former president and his team themselves are trying to tamp down. here is one of his aids today. listen. >> this is a moment in our country's history where we're in a tinderbox, so much political division, so many people hurting from the economic woes, hurting from the chaos at our southern border. look at the families of lake kin riley, we have to put

this is what chuck todd wrote, alarmingly for many democrats who have talked with some members of theer circle, it's not clear the president has seen any true new data about the race since the debate. instead, getting memos with cherry picked numbers that are based less on individual state polls than on analytics research that uses a large sample of respondents across states coupled with voter file data to model outcomes, and they further suggested this, he wrote, if it's what i think it is, such data can often end up being glorified projections based on historical performance and turnout estimates, which can struggle to pick up change in volatile moments. this week alone has defined volatile moments, so is polling dependable? and do you believe it's possible that he's not getting clear, true information? >> i think polling's dependable within the margins of error, right? so -- >> even in a volatile time like this? >> you know, there's plenty of time, a lot of water still going to go under the bridge, and so i think there's going to be a lot of numbers thrown at people. you know, we o

today, we're also finding out nbc's chuck todd has had a major scoop on biden in his pocket for years but he kept it a secret. of course, until now. i had a cabinet secretary two years ago right. okay. two years ago, all out of the blue asked me, do you really think he's got he can't run again like this. and i said, well, you have more interaction with him and i do. and they said, i don't have a lot of interaction with him. this is a pretty senior cabinet secretary. so and this was two years ago. this is this is one of those, you know, it's the classic open secrets a conversation. right? it's the story everybody knows. and no one was. everybody was afraid to talk about. it's probably mayor pete. but so why is everybody so afraid to talk about it? power. couple of weeks ago, they said videos of biden wandering in italian fields were cheap fakes. now they say we knew biden was shot the whole time. if we said biden looks frail, they called us conspiracy kooks. now the media is inviting on doctors to say joe has parkinson's. he has just classic features of neurodegeneration. i mean, word

. >> in september you said in an interview with chuck todd that you would not oppose or run against kamala harris in a presidential campaign. i am curious if you still feel that way? >> yes, of course. >> calls for biden to stretch out have been stretching into hollywood. george clooney who fund raised for biden a few weeks ago wrote a blistering editorial. i love joe biden but we need a new nominee. nancy pelosi is fueling more doubt after she spoke out on the msnbc show morning joe. >> does he have your support to be the head of the democratic ticket? >> as long -- it is up to the president to decide if he is going to run. we are all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short. he is beloved. he is respected. people want him to make that decision. >> he has . >> not me. >> she also signaled that biden would have more to say about his political future after the nato summit wraps up tomorrow. after that interview with nancy pelosi, "new york times" published this headline saying pelosi suggested he can reconsider but later on capitol hill she pushed back against tha

nbc's chuck todd says biden's reelection campaign is over. >> impossible for biden to stay in. even if you wants to stay in, saying he needs to get out. how do they put the toothpaste back in the tube? leaders of the democratic party making the case he can't serve another four years. he's been forced. i don't think we are getting to the point i don't think he can win the nomination. he is losing control of that process. stuart: pretty strong stuff. jason chaffetz, biden's family has started discussing the exit plan from the race. >> year ago. democrats have a bigger problem. we can't say we are going to wait another month, days from now the democrats convention is, there are deadlines in states to get on the ballot, even if they wanted to switch somebody out. they are so late in the game. not up to the feds but individual state laws and state laws prohibit you making these changes. how he does it if he does step out, what he says what he says the reason for it will be, a huge factor of a lawsuit sure to follow in the individual states. neil: any doubt he will step aside? >> i'v

pretty much everybody who has been with joe last four years is telling the truth about him, like chuck todd says he's known about biden's condition for years. if only he knew a journalist who could warn us about it. instead, the media called us f facist and it only took one bad debate. that is 4000 verbal gaffes, falling, fouling down. does it matter what hollywood says about biden? not really, now it is about donors so they are abandoning ship like the titanic and joe is the iceberg with a lower body temperature. these actors get paid to say what is written for them. they may play heroes, but in real life, they wait for brave people to step forward first. they are in hollywood, in real life, they are extras. let's welcome our guests, he is so religious he makes mitt romney look like a hell's angel, tom. only panelist, expert on pulled groins, former sideline reporter michele tafoya. he's a judge and comedian and will throw the joke book at you, vincent august. she is so thin, girl scouts sell mints, "fox and friends" news contributor kat cammack. tom, before i get to your mundane opinion a

chuck todd, for example, a couple of days ago said on a podcasted that two years ago he was speakingto a high-level cabinet secretary and the secretary said to him, "he can't be running like this, can he?" and of course, the wall street journal had its long article about biden slipping. i want to know, how many stories did usa today do about biden's mental decline or lack of mental acuity? joey: i think we had several stories on his age and the issues that concerns people had about them. i think really, you know, in the last six months, reporting has talked about this, really starting at the beginning of the year, i think there has been a change in biden in terms of how he presents itself, in terms of maybe lapses that have been going on behind the scenes. and you know, so i think that is why, potentially why we saw in that debate just a kind of biden at his worst state right there. and yeah, i mean, it's been, the moment he took office, president biden, you know, he was already the oldest president in united states history. so it's been a question hanging over his whole presidency.

chuck todd revealing that a senior cabinet secretary told him a shocking truth about joe two years agoretary two years ago out of the blue asked me do you really think he's going, he can't run again like this. i said you have more interaction than i do and they said i don't have a lot of interaction with him. this is a pretty senior cabinet secretary. this was two years ago. >> journalists, do you think they are obligated to report thanks at that level where it's like the president might be shocked or will they be allowed to keep that a secret. >> you had this for two years and you just said it now, that's what bothers me. especially because at that point the years he was the anchor of a major sunday show, why wouldn't you put this out on your show. i don't understand that. that's all i got on that. that being said, that's all i got. >> how many scoops do you think democrat journalists have been sitting on and are still sitting on. >> we've been doing this for two years. and we are not in the fishbowl that they are in washington dc. the outrage about this is that now you've got, how ir

. >>> i want to bring in nbc news chief political analyst chuck todd with us, chuck, we spoke much earlier this afternoon, now we know who it is, senator j.d. vance named as the running mate, know you're so good at this, you understand the political -- why political camly speaking in terms of votes, in terms of j.d. vance can help mr. trump, what does he do for donald trump? >> what the campaign thinks, it's debate about whether this is true, the campaign believes he can help particularly with sort of in the industrial mid western states of michigan and pennsylvania specifically, maybe even a little bit here in wisconsin with sort of a similar message of the forgotten manufacturing towns of the midwest that was sort of a theme of the senate race and certainly a theme of his, of the basically the memoir that he wrote that sort of launched his political career, i don't know, though, whether he's going to be as helpful a they think. i think the other big story, though, in this pick, is how it really just totally reached -- this is a total, i guess, rejection by trump of whatever was left of c

the vice-president, how about the people who have been enabling him, members of the media like chuck toddago, a senior cabinet official raised mental acuity concerns. those members of the media that have enabled this person to exist in the commander in chief chair, despite losing 13 service members lives, and so much more, ambush them, we know what george thinks and we're all thinking it too, and at the end of the day, it matters how we vote. make sure we vote. >> i get the feeling that all of these people in the media and politics, they all know each other, and go to the same parties in georgetown, and he has to make sure he's not going to lose any invites to certain events, so how, they're all going to have to get together, and be friends again, right? >> they're going to have to be friends again and that was actually part of this. i'm not buying this video, i think curious george planted this himself, because he needs to go out there and say, yeah, i don't agree with this, but he can't say it on air, so he's protecting his own credibility. the way the guy came up, it was so forced, hey

like chuck todd who says he's known about biden's condition for years.e knew a journalist that could write about it. instead the media calling us bashes for noticing joe is the walking dead without the walking. it only took one bad debate, that and 4000 verbal gaps tripping over sandbags and falling off the mic. somersaulting off of flights of stairs and cutting the cheese in front of the duchess of cornwall doesn't matter what hollywood says about biden? not really. but now it's about the donors. abandoning ship like it's the titanic and joe is the iceberg but with a lower body temperature. remember these are actors who get paid to say what's written for them, they may play heroes but when it's time to take a stand in real life they waited for people to share at first. but in real life they are extras. >> he's so religious he makes mitt romney look like a hells angel. fox contributor tom shillue. she's the only panelist was an expert on home growing's. former nfl sideline reporter michele tafoya. he's a judge and comedian which means he will throw the j

joining us, political analyst chuck todd and the nation's national affairs correspondent john nicholsd the biden team and biden himself will say these are elites. this is the democratic donor class trying to push me out. what do they know? look what happened in 2020? everybody counted me out but they're not counting on the voters here and what the voters say about joe biden. there's a polling out there, we've seen the numbers. i got out and spoke -- we mentioned this the other day, i spoke to voters in wauwatosa, wisconsin, democratic voters and i asked them what they thought of joe biden. let's listen. >> you look like you need to have a conversation about politics. it's just like you scream ask me about the presidential election? >> no. >> no. >> no, no. >> are you not excited? >> they're both annoying. >> they're both annoying? >> like, they're both not good candidates. >> no one is exciting me nationwide. >> it just sucks. >> sure does. >> i mean, if i'm being honest, they're just old white men. >> for me, it's almost like an offensive vote against trump. >> do you want joe biden

coming up nbc chuck todd question but the democrats are putting party over country keeping biden on thecket, listen to this. >> the real issue is he telling the truth about whether he can serve a full four years, you have to say what is in the best interest of the country, not the party. ashley: it didn't end there, will have the full tape. biden intra- playing the blame game on inflation but it shows prices clearly skyrocketed under joe biden, steve moore is here to break it all down next. ♪ ok y'all we got ten orders coming in.. big orders! starting a business is never easy, but starting it eight months pregnant.. that's a different story. i couldn't slow down. we were starting a business from the ground up. people were showing up left and right. and so did our business needs. the chase ink card made it easy. when you go for something big like this, your kids see that. and they believe they can do the same. earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase with the chase ink business unlimited card from chase for business. make more of what's yours. choose advil liqui-gels for faster, s

the question though kristen that chuck todd raised on your show yesterday was is this a one off? is this one bad night or is this an indicator of a bigger problem, a medical problem, and that really is concerning a lot of leaders who maybe supporting him publicly because they feel it will just backfire if they don't. but are very concerned that there's something else going on. >> you hit the nail on the head, andrea. i've spoken to people so deeply concerned about what they witnessed on thursday night to democrats who say is he capable of serving out the remainder of his term. forgetting about another four years in office. publicly, those speaking, the party is closing ranks behind him, giving him space as you say to make this decision, but i am told the reality is they are also, while they're going to fight for him if he stays in the race, they're going to be focused on keeping the house, the senate, and thinking about strategy heading into 2028 because there's so much concern about his ability to win and to beat trump. particularly if there's another debate, andrea. >> and ther

chuck todd, i was listening to his podcast, said trump could replace vance on the ticket if he so chose. it's not necessarily a done deal. he made that pick before she was who he would be running against. i wonder if he would change it now. >> he might have picked someone different. but what's the wrap on donald trump, and the democrats that he's the chaos candidate. that if you don't want more chaos, don't vote for donald trump. replacing the vice president after the convention in reaction to what the democrats have done would make him look weak or silly. again, it looks like the gang that can't shoot straight. saying this, hei would expect h to keep jd vance as his vice president. >> what then are your thoughts for investors about the way this race is shaping up thus far? >> listen, it wasn't long ago a lot of investors thought not only were they going to get a president trump second term, but a republican senate and senate house, extension of tax cuts, deregulation. silicon valley folks, some of them are giving money to donald trump because they like the deregulation. they don't want

we covered here how chuck todd a senior cabinet official they were mental acuity concerns.here was not some epiphany that happens simultaneously to everyone in the last 2 weeks. the evidence was there. on the record and off. before their own eyes. it is only taken when someone felt brave enough to say something about it. >> he sat down with george stephanopoulos. he's not venting biden anymore thanks to the tmz tape. he's going to be sitting down with lester holt. is that going to be taped in 20 minutes and talking points. we will see. coming up, the embattled biden campaign testing kamala harris against donald trump. the left where he that america is too sexist and racist to vote for her. that is next. losing weight and keeping it off? same. discover the power of wegovy®. ♪ ♪ with wegovy®, i lost 35 pounds. and some lost over 46 pounds. ♪ ♪ and i'm keeping the weight off. wegovy® helps you lose weight and keep it off. i'm reducing my risk. wegovy® is the only fda-approved weight-management medicine that's proven to reduce risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with

and i will steal this line from chuck todd. the vice president is the most famous unknown person in the world. and only she could do this. right? because right now they all know her but it initially filling in the gaps. filling in the spaces of her back story and who she is. and i think they will do a lot of that in the convention. and, look, some of the super pac have already started. now with a $50 million by setting up this contract. look at the infrastructure and the ungodly amounts of money they are raising in like what? 48 hours? it is stuff we did not see in '08. but it is sort of that energy and comparison that is going on. i think when you look at the infrastructure and the money and how aggressive they are, going after more states, i think she will be fine. >> something else, too, that is really important is they need to be aggressive early on because we saw during the trump campaign during the primaries how they define ron desantis in his candidacy. he was not a great candidate but before he even entered into the pri

the stick later down the road but chuck todd as an aside has on the podcast he said two years ago thebiden cabinet member said he can't run again, he can't run again the way he is. everybody knows this. george clooney waits until 51 million americans watch the debates, then it's safe. what is it about the democrats, they are so in the lock step, they are afraid to come out and say what every american already knows? and this guy hasn't had a presser since last november and we are in an election year. all of a sudden they are saying it doesn't look -- you've got one senator, this guy mike bennett who's saying this is the first time in recent modern history that a republican is up at this point in the race. the fact they need to talk about it tells me they are offering a lot of things to joe but i think the final step is that at the convention they may be committed to joe but if in their conscience they cannot support him, then everything changes with the delegates. >> greg: you're a woman and congratulations. >> dana: are we still calling at that? >> what is your analysis of nancy pelos

. >>> coming up, nbc's chuck todd says it is impossible for biden to stay in the race. it's impossible for biden to stay in -- >> yeah. >> -- even if he wants to stay in because there's too many democrats on the record saying he needs to get out. stuart: okay. could biden be out by this weekend? that fast, he asks. well, we'll find out this weekend. >>> van jones says he hasn't seen a convention as enthusiastic as the republicans put on since obama's in 2008. watch this. >> i want to -- [laughter] this spirit that this guy has, the last time the i was at a convention that felt like this was obama in 2008. there's something happening. stuart: as biden fades, it seems trump is tri7:ing. rnc chair michael whatley is next. ♪ oh, what a night. ♪ you know i didn't even know her name -- ♪ but i was never gonna be the same. ♪ what a lady, what a night ♪ did i read this? did i get eggs? where are my keys? memory and thinking issues keep piling up? it may be due to a buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain. visit morethannormalaging.com what does a good investment opportunity loo

. >> dana: also this from chuck todd, nbc, msnbc, i can't remember. he has known the biden team for a long time and biden himself and what he said about him yesterday. >> it has made me want to rethink a lot of the biden biography. i still can't believe he ran for president in the first place given his family was in crisis in 2018. i look -- you look at what has happened. i can't believe he put his family through this. and now looking at his behavior now and clinging to this, you know, i think the entire narrative on joe biden is going to change in that he was -- he has always been -- everything has been about his ambition and his ambition comes first. >> dana: i've been saying this for a while. if they believe that donald trump is such a threat why not figure out a way to make sure they had a strong nominee going into this election? now you have a situation where the bidens are 85% of d.c. has turned on them. probably soon to be more and this is not the reputation they wanted to leave with. >> bill: you could say that opinions move with crowds. >> da

joining us now, chuck todd, "the washington post" senior national political correspondent, and msnbc political analyst, ashley parker. also staff writer for the atlantic and msnbc political contributor. mark. so happy to have you guys. chuck, last night looking at donald trump, i know we've been talking about this, but i think bears having another conversation. i've never seen him with that look on his face. i've never seen him walk into a room and look overwhelmed in that way. almost seemed emotional. can we honestly ask whether a brush with death has changed him? >> look. you know, you weren't the only one, we were all noticing this and had different conversations. boy, that just looks like a different trump. let's, you know, he's a human being. i think sometimes we so cover these presidential candidates as caricatures we forget there's a human being here. and you know, part of me wondered this is the first time he's been in a crowded room. is he going to feel, if you've been shot at in a crowd, are you going to be comfortable no matter what the secret service telling you how safe t
