well, i say proud like detroit. >> [applause] >> i say resilient like detroit.his is the same detroit that innovated the auto industry and the music industry. >> [applause] >> so put some respect on detroit's name. rachel: think about that contrast so one candidate want the to do maga and the other one is make america detroit again. i mean, detroit, as you said, nice town, nice architecture, but definitely not a model for what we want for the rest of the country. will: but to the place where we began this conversation, the point that you're making, charlie. detroit wasn't always that way and you know, there's a lot of reasons donald trump was appealing to those union and blue collar voters in pennsylvania and we often talk about the cultural issues and how he connects with them on a cultural level, but you know, i happen to, i think, be lucky enough to be born in a state and now live in a state that really benefits from a booming economy. i mean, you feel it on a day-to-day basis in texas. fortune 500 companies, people moving to texas. the point is, there was a

spy detroit waving the white flag?re behind us. that living here is like -- >> living in hell. >> you know what we said? we said [ bleep ] that. we rebuilt ourselves. we look out for each other's. we get our hands dirty and put in the hard work. and this guy, he don't know anything about that. we are a city of winners, of up and comers, of builders, the motor city. bigger and better. here, we believe in freedom. we don't bow down to nobody and we never will. and to what donald trump doesn't understand or care to learn is that when he said this? our whole country will end up being like detroit if she is president. >> that he should be so [ bleep ] lucky. spent michigan state center and michigan attorney general join us. madame attorney general, start with you, your reaction. >> um, wow. it is just really interesting tactic to try to get people from the state of michigan, who love the city of detroit to try to come out and vote for him by a disparaging a city that has been through some really tough times but is one that

this brand-new ad will air during the detroit lions and detroit tigers games this weekend.said we were dead. >> detroit waving a white flag, the city filing for bankruptcy. >> that our best days were behind us. that living here is like -- >> living in . >> you what we said? we said -- that. we rebuild ourselves. we look out for each other. got our hands dirty and put in the hard work. does this guy even know anything about that? we are a city of winners, of up and comers, a builders. the motor city. bigger and better. we don't bow down to nobody. and so what donald trump doesn't understand or care to learn is that when he said -- >> our whole country will end up being like detroit. >> that he should be so lucky. >> i am kamala harris, and i approve this message. >> mallory mcmurdo and michigan attorney general dana nestle. i start with you, your reaction. >> wow. it is just a really interesting tactic to try to get people from the state of michigan who love the city of detroit to try to come out and vote for him by disparaging a city that has been through some really tough

donald trump was also in detroit friday. with 17 days remaining in the neck and neck race in the battleground states, trump changed his tune singing the praises of the city. >> detroit has such great potential but the democrats have been wreaking havoc on this place. this very, very -- in many respects, a sacred place. it has been treated so badly and they have been talking about comebacks for so long. we will bring it back better than it ever was many, many years ago. >> the political events calendar is jampacked. vp harris is joining lizzo this afternoon and later on, with usher in atlanta. former president trump will hold a rally in pennsylvania. of course, the race is neck and neck and both sides are leaving no stone unturned in the quest to rack up votes. >> there are over 100 surrogates out right now just og this weekend. we are all over the battlegrounds. i, myself, am in north carolina. i flew from a redeye from las vegas. we are working everywhere to earn every single vote. >> early voting started in nevada and mass

tonight's rally coming on the heels of trump's event in detroit. it was plagued by technical difficulties, but what was his message? >> that's right, alex. the former presidents microphone cut out mid speech last night in detroit, and the problem persisted for nearly 20 minutes. he remained on stage that entire time. eventually the audio was brought back and he was able to finish those remarks, but in terms of his messaging overall, we sort of heard him shift how we spoke about detroit itself, saying that the city was on the verge of a comeback. but he did acknowledge the history of the motor city. we also heard him go after harris, as he often does, on the economy, on inflation, and especially on immigration, which he brings up so much on the campaign trail. i want you here specifically, though, how he talked about undocumented immigrants in this country. here's what he said last night. >> the united states is now an occupied country. how about that? did you ever think you'd be hearing that? we are an occupied country. we are being occupied. you k

right. fi, a factor shines back in detroit. the so called china offensive has yet to arrive in america. but the mere threat is whipping us automakers into a frenzy despite washington punitive terrace. fort in g m. r. almost having a nervous breakdown and anticipate ation of what is about to hit them, not only already on the international market, but perhaps sewage domestically to here in the us. ongoing of the good old days of american commented, factoring nowadays appears as a simpler yet golden era of american industrial might and invincible of the all that is, well, just the u. s. legacy automakers of being forced to yet again to re evaluate and meet and long term strategies when it comes to electric vehicles. that's on top of trying to stay nimble in their approach to internal combustion engine vehicles, which are still the all important money makers for the, the if history teaches it in the, you know, to be too far ahead or too far behind. you want to be moving right at the front of the middle of the pack if you really wan

let's turn now to the former president back in detroit a week after he called detroit a developing. you compared it to a developing nation, warned that if the vice president wins the whole country will look like detroit here's what he said last night potential, but kamala and the democrats have been wreaking havoc on this place, this very, very, in many respects, it's a sacred place. >> so many things happened in detroit and it's been treated so badly and they've been talking about comebacks for so long, but we're going to bring it back better than ever was better than it was many, many years at lethal harris campaign ran with those comments from a week ago, how problematic did the trump campaign and trump's allies believed those comments about detroit were in detroit i mean, the fact that trump himself seemed to be addressing those past comments, trying to clean it up himself indicates that they felt like it was a huge issue that they were not they did not like the fact that the harris campaign pounced on those comments and have been using them on the campaign trail. and again, whe

since 1960, the detroit economic club has hosted nine u.s. presidents and tons of presidential candidates. that's nick singh, ford, carter, reagan -- that's nixon, ford, carter, reagan, bush sr., jr., and president trump that's a record for the detroit economic club. you have been patient. time to get the program started and i will do so by introducing our presiding officer. when he does come out, it will be ambassador -- be an ambassador and chairman of will bridge. he served our country as ambassador to the uae from 2019 to 2021 during an important time in our country's relations with the you a. he is a dec board member and a proud supporter. john does so much for so many here in michigan and i want to personally thank john for helping to get president trump here today. you will see him. you will see him momentarily. enjoy the event and please join the detroit economic club. thank you. [applause] >> what a great looking crowd. having had the honor of working for president trump, i can assure you that he's exactly the kind of person you want

well, i say proud like detroit. [cheers and applause] i say resilient like detroit.pplause] this is the same detroit thatten innovated the auto industry and the music industry. [cheers and applause] so put some respect on detroit's name. charlie: so, you know -- will: she went on to say the entire country will be like detroit. [laughter] charlie: i love detroit. i lived there for years -- rachel: you loved it for all the wrong reasons. charlie: it was a great news town, fire, murders, dysfunction, corruption, all of it. but that's what kamala's going to turn america into, into disproi. when donald trump made that inappropriate comment last week saying, putting down detroit, you know, everybody said, oh, you know, the brilliant people are like, oh, it's going to the kill him in michigan. well, you know, a lot of michiganders sit around thinking to themselves, they agree that detroit is not kind of -- they have kind of a love-hate relationship with detroit. rachel: yeah. charlie: they're proud of it because it's such a funny place, but it's not exactly a functional pla

he doesn't care about black people in detroit. he doesn't care about people of color in any other major cities that each crashes all he cares about driving up rates as white people to vote for him. that's it. he doesn't ever show up with any policy. he is yet to actually point to anything of success in the urban city. all he does is use those as a prop and so as a born and raised detroit or i'm just asking him to stop buying another city to pick on because it's cool. plenty be banned, says, you don't know it's about us ma'am the statements he made and then going back it's not what you would write as a playbook for the average politician to try to heal that self-inflicted wound. first of all, was it a mistake the way that he came out and talked about it. and did he his efforts to try to fix the blame on harris and biden, did it go even far enough to try to placate those who would have been offended this isn't the first time he's done. >> this has gone to cities all over the country and said this, i think the interesting dynamic and

but detroit knows right now it can compete with china. it's overwhelming strength and the low cost electrically a couple seconds for now us car make us have nothing to offer that could compete against each like this $1.00 here. be why the see go with the starting price of under $11000.00. time for an expert to chime in on why and how china became so powerful in the fields of the fees and how we manage to become such a threat to us comic the lobby. i myself cool is a senior fellow with a trustee, chair and chinese business and economics at the center for strategic and international studies, or c s i. yes. in washington dc. well, we've seen this remarkable growth of the industry in china. chinese these, you know, they, they have been developing for quite a while. the industry has been growing and trying for quite a while, but i think outside of china it's been quite a surprise over in the past couple of years we've just seen, you know, the rapid growth of exports from china. the quality is quite good. the prices are very low. mm hm. and so

because at one point during those remarks, he actually insulted detroit while being in detroit, he he talked about you know, reinvigorating the u.s. auto industry. he said he wanted to renegotiate a trade deal that he had first negotiated actually with mexico and canada, but then he started to criticize detroit saying it was a once-great city saying that it's more of a developing city, then places like china. and so he got a lot of backlash for that. i'm curious to see whether or not he tries to clean up some of those remarks when he's back here tonight, but before he comes to detroit, alex and brianna, he's actually going to be in oakland county. that's where we're going to see that split screen of harris and donald trump both in the same county that i note that it's actually just north of detroit that is in the suburbs and it's been very clear that the suburbs is really an area that donald trump's team has been targeting, particularly suburban women. and so i think that's going to be a key part of what he talks about when he's there. just later this afternoon all right. >> and we we

in detroit historical society. the venue that we're about to step into now is called america's motor city, which was the, which would, was detroit was and, and really still is. dave had a successful engineering, korea, spending decades in the automotive industry. now he's looking at what is and what will be in the us auto market through the lenses of a story or the threat cheap chinese tvs post us automakers reminds them of a time with japanese comic as calls have for the us automotive industry. the so in the sixties and seventies, you know, we had toyotas and, but they weren't really what we, what detroit automakers consider. competitor you ask for your money for them on a toyota celica. if you can find the front of the toyota, and we bet you can, as those cars got better in the eighty's and ninety's, it became much more of a threat. good look at the 1st nissan maxima, s find a lot of car, the new nissan maxima, se a car built to perform. and a truck is a lot of car for the road. and i, i don't think it was in thi

. >> today, trump is making his first appearance in detroit since trashing detroit and single during it election year, some dating apps or making it easier to lean right or left on love, or maybe even just a casual hookup. sara is out. i'm john berman with kate baldwin. this is cnn new central with a new message for israel and the middle east, moments ago saying that now is the the time for a ceasefire deal. >> now, less than 24 hours after the world learned that israel killed hamas leader yahya sinwar. listen here the definitely there hamas represents a moment of justice the blood of americans, israelis, palestinians in germany, and so many others on his hands i told the prime minister original yesterday. let's also make this moment an opportunity to seek a path to peace. a better future in gaza without hamas i look forward to discussing a ran course of history because we've got basically what he's describing with the mastermind of the october 7 attacks now, dead what role will the united states now play in the coming days? secretary of state tony blinken will be heading to israel a

i will be there in a few weeks detroit is doing very well. >> detroit is coming back detroit from where it was is doing very well and people are very crowded, which opia people are noon unknown to stop know, but people are very proud of changing of changing the name in the view of detroit yeah, you know, i think his message here under republican policies, you'll do better and under democratic policies you got decline. it's a pretty simple message and that's really as much as for a lot of urban areas in the country. >> maria kent county is where grand rapids is and that's where harris is going to start our day so it's an interesting john and jeff zeleny were talking about earlier. it's definitely a county to keep an eye on and it's very interesting for this very reason it's leaned republican. it leaned republican for years. trump won the county in 2016 biden then won the county in 2020 when it comes to outreach in a critical place like that, do you think the strategy should be turning out more democrats are winning over more republicans there? yes. and in a utopian political strategy, it

proud like detroit. resilient like detroit. we are talking about the same detroit that innovated the auto industry and the music industry. so put some respect on detroit's name. >> now, watch. yesterday, donald trump had a rally in detroit and just watch what happened last night. >> it is not love. it is not respect. >> so, jennifer, i showed that because on the weekend, michael steele made an excellent point. detroit could have taken it's revenge on donald trump last night. how is it that his mics, his rallies, mics worked perfectly fine except last night for detroit for 20 minutes. >> you are such a spit -- suspicious guy, jonathan. i think it is emblematic of the campaign. i think congressman garcia mentioned it as well. their ground game is elon musk. the large rallies. so when it comes to really turning out people, when it comes to door-knocking, that last week or so of persuasion, she has a camping operation. he does not. i think that is worth several points where you finally tally up the votes. >> what you make of that?

hey, detroit. thank you so much. hey, detroit.eady to get out there and get everyone to vote? and the mic is not on. now it is on. hey, detroit, are we ready? before i came out, my team was telling me, i was talking to members of the press, hey, since early voting has started -- can you hear me? they can't hear me. i'm going to have to stand right here. ok, can you hear me now? ok. there we go. so, my team was telling me, so you know georgia started early voting, and they broke historic records in early voting. north carolina started early voting, broke historic records in north carolina. so we are going to break the records here in detroit today, yes, we are. we are going to do this, because we know what is at stake, and we know the power of the people. this is about the power of the people. this is about knowing each one of us, as an individual, and as a community, as a coefficient. we have the power to make the decision about the direction of our country, and we know this election is about two very different visions for our fut

also tomorrow in detroit. detroiters are excited to get out there. we are going to see record levels of turnout by the end of this election. smack the microphone incident came several days after a testy trump interview in chicago about economics where he had some pretty surprising things to say about autoworkers. take a listen. >> there mercedes-benz, they will start building in the united states. they have a little bit. you know what they really are? assembly like in south carolina. they build everything in germany, and then assemble it here. they take them out of a box, and then they assemble them. we could have our child do it. >> trump was talking about autoworkers in the south. but i'm sure there are many in michigan who heard what he said, what he had to say. i mean, how do you think they are reacting? >> i know how they are reacting. not well. they are insulted, and they ought to be. some of those workers, they are the hardest working people in our state and around the country. you know, i don't think they take kindly to that kind of talk. tha

proud like detroit. resilience like detroit.e talking about the same detroit that innovated the auto industry and the music industry, so put some respect on detroit's name! >> now, watch, yesterday donald trump had a rally in detroit, and just watch what happened last night. >> it's not love, it's not respect-- [ inaudible ] >> [ crowd chanting ] >> so jennifer and basil, i show that, because michael steele on the weekend made an excellent point. detroit could have taken its revenge on donald trump last night how is it his his microphones worked perfectly except detroit for 20 minutes? >> you are such a suspicious guy, michael steele and you [ laughter ] listen i think it's element of a campaign, they have no ground game, their ground game is elon musk, the large rallies, so when it comes to really turning out people, when it comes to doorknocking that last week or so of persuasion she has a campaign operation. he does not. and i think that is worth several points when you finally tally up the votes. >> basil, what you make of t

detroit metropolitan area. but in that area, you know, it's a very diverse community there are people who are ere of american or muslim. there are called dns who are christians. there are people who are lebanese. so there are all sorts of people who are there and they feel differently about the issues. it's about 1%, maybe a little bit less than 1% population in the state that is from the middle east so let's say she loses 35 or 40% of that. that's going to matter in a very close race. but this community, i want you to do is changing alliances and oakland county, one of the things perry, was just mentioning the college kate had whites. detroit has lost a lot of population over the course of the last decade or so, allow those people now live in oakland county. people like my brother and his family who left the city of detroit, but they now live out know when county. but she's not just talking to college-educated whites, but also african americans, arab americans, who are who have now moved out to more suburban a

while in detroit where he will be again in detroit today. let's talk about michigan cnn chief national affairs correspondent jeff zeleny with us. good morning, jeff hey, good morning. >> john. yes. from our president donald trump is going back to michigan, batch of detroit his insulting detroit just last week when he was there speaking was likely not about detroit, but about perhaps throughout michigan and who often look at detroit as a democratic liberal city. so he was trying to gain favor there, but we'll see if he cleans that up when he goes to detroit. but vice president kamala harris was actually in wisconsin last night. that of course is a place where battleground voters matter a little bit more to the outcome of this race and the people in that room there at the al smith dinner, but their paths will cross today and all eyes are on michigan once again, there are 15 reasons why 15 electoral votes in michigan. it's the center of that so-called blue wall. if you will. but the harris campaign is out this morning with the new ad. they are

it will all be like detroit. our whole country will end up like detroit if she is your president. >> reporter: trump praised the modal -- motor city. >> kamala and the democrats have been wreaking havoc on this place. >> reporter: meanwhile vice president harris ramping up her attacks on former president trump, once again questioning his fitness to serve after he appeared to doze off during an earlier campaign event. >> his own campaign team is saying it is because of exhaustion. if you are exhausted from the campaign trail, it raises real questions about if you are fit for the toughest job in the world. >> reporter: the vice president addressing a key michigan voting block, thanking arab-americans for their support. >> i know this year has been difficult. >> reporter: calling the death of yahya sinwar a turning point in the war. >> everyone must seize this opportunity to finally end the war in gaza. >> reporter: as both campaigns continue to battle for black male voters, the vast majority back harris, but former

alongside detroit native musician lizzo.he is expected to join her on stage for a get out and vote events. a vadvice a president tried to energize voters the all-important swing state with just about two weeks to go up or just over that before election day. we'll bring you the vice president's remarks when she speaks. but first, this. flexible continue our battle with iran to other proxies. we're going to win this war. >> is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu striking a defiant know nothing will deter his country from victory. this after hezbollah targets his home in northern israel and a drone strike launched from lebanon. welcome to "fox news live" i am arthel neville. hi eric. >> thank you for joining us i'm eric shawn. hezbollah firing a barrage of iraq and to ignore the israel today. one person left dead several others injured. it is sign of escorting tension following the killing of hamas yahya sinwa the mastermind behind the brutal october 7 attack from israel. >> and dr. rebecca grant will join us with more on

she went here to lansing and now she's here in detroit, right? it's been moving across the state that shows a level of activity either campaign and some of us were worried about a couple of weeks ago, the campaign, just wasn't doing enough events every day. she's now doing two or three event today and that i think is also going to compel the attention to what to the campaign that she needs murdered essentially in jamal's point previously, she made her different from joe biden initially, it seemed like that there was no difference. now, she's saying, well, this is a loyalty thing. i'm just not going to speak about it it is a fine line that she has to walk and you saw it play out just in that clip with nbc, where she is trying to say, i'm respectful of the man that i'm serving with, but the same time i am the change candidate. >> and who is the change? candidate in this election? how voters perceive who it is, whether it's harris or trump is really the whole ballgame. and so she is trying to convince voters that, yeah, i'm the vice president, and y

i know folks in detroit remember it. years cleaning up the mess that the republicans left. y'all remember the auto industry in america was flat on its back. they didn't want to lift a finger to help, and we made the investments to reopen those factories and put people back to work. and by the time i left office, i handed over to donald trump 75 straight months of job growth. yeah, the economy was good, because we did the work! [cheers] and all he did was give a tax cut to people who didn't need one. drove up the deficit in the process. now he wants to do it again. do not fall for that. don't be bamboozled. so that is on the economy. when it comes to health care, donald trump's only answer is to end the affordable care act. now, do not move. now if you ask him, hold on, hold on, hold on. if you ask him, he doesn't really even know why he wants to end it except for the fact that , i did it. so, but the problem he's got, the problem vance has got is it's now popular, right? because 50 million people have gotten healthcare f

i mean, he insulted detroit in detroit, i want you to listen to some of what he said we're developing nation to just take a look at detroit at the whole country is going to be like you want to know the truth, it'll be like detroit, our whole country will end up being like detroit if she's your president much. >> a good strategy when you're criticizing the city that you're giving remarks and it's a bit reminiscent actually of when he said that milwaukee was a horrible city despite the republican party holding their convention in milwaukee, he later came out and said, i love milwaukee, so we'll see if he tries to do a similar type of cleanup here in detroit this evening. but look, i cannot overstate enough how important mission again is the trump campaign? very much acknowledges that not only does it have 15 electoral votes, but when i talk to donald trump's senior advisers, they tell me that of all out of all the three blue wall states, of course, in addition to michigan, that's pennsylvania and wisconsin. they are the most confident about their chances. in michigan. that's why you've

oh, you're going to be like detroit.% black city. >> exactly right. you know, in cleveland, their city slogan is, cleveland, we're not detroit. okay. that's the kind of stuff we have to put up with as detroiters and flint people. but my last comment is get three people to go to the polls with you on election day. you have to get -- it's not -- if only you're voting once, you don't have three other people voting, we lose. everyone vote and get three others to vote. >> michael moore, you have given us the call and hopefully your fellow michiganders will listen. thank you very much. michael moore. >>> coming up, everyone has been in a frenzy about polling and what early voting numbers mean. but we really all need to take a deep breath, a deep cleansing breath and calm down. we will have friends of the show simon rosenberg and tom bannier on to explain what we do and do not know right now. don't go anywhere. don't go anywhere. - this is jabra enhance select. it's more than just a hearing aid. it's a smart hearing solution th

he was there in detroit and insulted detroit at the detroit economic club. but here is what the harris- walz campaign did. they turned that around to a one-minute ad. there's about 10 seconds. >> as for what donald trump doesn't understand or learn is when he says-- >> our whole country will wind up like detroit. >> he should be so [ bleep ] lucky. >> i love that ad, and i'm sorry we had to bleep out the word there. how did that go over what donald trump said to the detroit economic club? >> look, again, somebody being from detroit, a problem solver from detroit, to have our city's name in his mouth in such a negative way was disgusting. and it landed just as flat and tone deaf as donald trump off his hair is. the truth is we are city of people, who make things happen, who build things. i felt companies that solve problems. donald trump comes and lies and just talks about problems and adds no solutions. but, kamala harris and tim walz, these are the people with solutions to help us build black health and black wealth across america, and that's why they are g

and on facebook, there was something called the northeast detroit alumni group. so what did you do in this group on facebook? well, that was all about is being in touch with long-lost friends, people from the neighborhood. keith morrison (voiceover): including a couple of brothers, old friends from the neighborhood who, she remembered with a twinge, did not turn out so well. tommy and ray highers went to prison, in fact, for murder. mary followed the case way back then, in 1987, remembers just how she felt when they were found guilty. i was shocked. you know, i was shocked to hear that. i thought, no way. didn't sound like them to you? no. keith morrison (voiceover): anyway, there she was, thinking about them again, fondly. so she wrote a line about missing them whenever she hears a certain song on the radio. and then she sighed and pushed the send button. and look out. people might have trouble believing that such a simple thing as a posting on facebook could make whole worlds change. a lot of people ask, well, what was it? what did you do? what happened? i says

detroit -- look, i was born in detroit. when people say where i'm from i still say detroit. i think you heard the real donald trump on thursday and i think he made a serious mistake. he insulted a lot of us. >> and you have all the sporting events coming to detroit and in parts of the city that are trying to rebuild. you know i had national action network, reverend charles williams the second is doing a great job there. it is totally, in my opinion, targeted. but let me go here. kamala harris has been able to improve democratic standing with black voters since she entered the race but new polling from the new york times shows her struggling to reach the same level of black voter support president biden did four years ago, and that could hurt her in swing states, like michigan. nearly 8 in 10 black likely voters say they are voting for harris, according to the poll. but about 15% say they are voting for trump. a six point increase from 2020 and that includes 1 in 5 black men. and it's that deficit that had former president barack obama specifically admonishing blackman to sup

it is doing very _ especially in detroit? it is doing very well, - especially in detroit?, if - especially in detroit? it is doing very well, if you - especially in detroit? it 3 doing very well, if you look at the share price for ford, it is down, and general motors is up, so it is doing well in terms of ev sales, the second best seller of electric vehicles in the us. whether negatives are, very much in terms of performance in china where it has been losing money, and it also is not so well positioned in terms of hybrids if electric vehicle sales stall in the us and people decide to go with hybrid, it has not covered so well though, and it is still losing money on its autonomous decision delay macro division. a lot of hurdles ahead? trier? a lot of hurdles ahead? very much. sentiment _ a lot of hurdles ahead? very much. sentiment has - a lot of hurdles ahead? very much. sentiment has moved against it in a way and we saw after the recent test that revealed, the share prices went down 12%, and investors are realising that this is still quite a long way away the technology s
