let's speak to daniel lippman, a journalist at the website politico, who have been looking at this. thankthe first public appearance by lewes tojoy on what has become a major campaign issue. did he managed to allay any fears today? thank you did manage to delay some fears, but i think before a houston aquatic committee, and democrats still want him to rollback those changes that have led to all of these delivery issues in terms of people not getting their medicines, even animals dying in the mail because they just get stuck even animals dying in the mail because theyjust get stuck in a postal sorting facility, so he is trying to do this public offensive to reassure people that their ballots will get to the election officials on time, but the caveats, you have to send them in early, because if you send them the day before, it's going to be hard for the postal service to rush them to election officials. democrats are seeing these proposed changes as a deliberate attempt to suppress voting. republicans are saying these are justified voting. republicans are saying these arejustified consideri

joining me now to discuss this is daniel lippman, politico's white house reporter.sadly we have been here before with president trump and president 0bama and the birther theory and he has done this previously. this is his old playbook but it does not seem like he has a great chance of success because most like he has a great chance of success because most people believe that barack success because most people believe that ba rack 0bama success because most people believe that barack 0bama is an american and even more far—fetched now with kamala harris where she was born in 0akland, kamala harris where she was born in oakland, california and many americans had more important things on their mind like the pandemic and also the economic toll that has resulted. so very few americans are going to defeat —— see what donald trump said and say i will not vote for harris and biden now and that settles the issue. there is no issue and it is kind of a distraction from the failures of the pandemic response. that is the key thing because as we get ever closer to the election, pr

let's get more on this with daniel lippman, a white house reporter at politico. 0ne one of the reasonsafrican—american vote stayed home. is it enough for kamala harris to be the black candidate, or does she need to say something in the next 2-3 need to say something in the next 2—3 months to bring that vote out in november? well, she'll say a lot of things over interviews, even some public appearances, although you won't see those big rallies. but she's going to try to get as many african—american voters out to the polls to vote for her and joe biden, but also get young people, progressives — get people that like that she's a woman, she would be the first woman in one of those two top offices. so she will be busy from 6am to midnight every day until election day. i look at your morning bulletin every day and you have a poll out at the moment with morning console. 19% of black voters believe the country's going in the right direction, 8% approve of the job donald trump is doing. so he has real problems with african—american voters. and you asked in your morning bulletin today, "does the
