former senator doug jones, stay right here. let's turn to this.dent trump sharpening his language against jewish democrats and claiming vice president kamala harris does not like jews, despite the fact that she's married to one if you are jewish regardless of israel, if you're jewish if you vote for a democrat, you're a fool. >> an absolute fool. number one, she doesn't like israel. number two, she doesn't like jewish people, you know, it i know everybody knows it and nobody wants to say it in that same interview, trump appears to agree with a conservative radio host who makes disparaging remarks about harris's husband, doug emhoff they told me that they saw this harris's husband, doug emhoff, mr. president, is jewish. >> he's jewish like bernie sanders is jewish. so you kidding me, he's a crappy job. he's a horrible job okay. >> our panel is back matt, they're calling people call someone a horrible jew or horrible catholic fill in the blank pretty offensive in my advice is don't overthink kind of the messaging on this race, right? >> like this, t

and joining me now, former democratic senator doug jones of alabama and charlie dent of pennsylvania, former republican comes. you have called joe biden one of america's greatest presidents. what do you make of his decision and what do you think this does for the democratic party's chances in november? >> i think it adds rocket fuel to a campaign for the democratic party's chances. you know, when i make about this for biden is exactly what i said following the debate, i've known joe biden for a long time. and i believed ultimately he would make a decision that he believed was in the best interest of the country. and i think he absolutely did that. he said that in the statement. it is not an easy decision. and in the middle of all of this, he had to deal with nato, you know, he had covid, so this is a decision that he made after talking to a lot of people, surveying the country, taking the temperature of folks on both sides of the issue of whether he stays or whether he goes. and at the end of the day, he made the decision, to be the right decision for the country. i support that decis

doug schoen, lawrence jones had this conversation with him. >> i make it as a real problem, but thatwhy i say, a, given cheap polls worse than biden to say we'll have open process, let delegates and political leaders decide is only way to go. make it fair, make it open, make it transparent and maybe, just maybe my party will be revitalized. two people who can't beat donald trump, joe biden and kamala harris. >> lawrence: idea they can skip over kamala harris will not work with the democratic party. you have democratic delegate that said black women will blowup the party if they don't select kamala harris. it is joe biden or kamala harris. i tend to believe joe biden is not getting out. he still knows he is president and the power he wields with the money and power of the urs approximate and i think he's here to stay and that is one thing democrats are struggling with. they know he should get out of the race, the question is, will joe biden take his hand off the power of the presidency and i don't think a man been in politics since 29 years old want to give up highest office in the la
