i love the line mala harris always says. bad police are bad for good bullies. bad cops are bad for good cops. the idea of being able to on day one in this administration looked at the issues of justice -- kalicing just like, mala has put forward in the house, look at a commission that would delve deeply into these issues and address them. unfortunately, we have a president right now that does not want to deal with these issusues, and what it does is it exacerbates and further adds fuel to the fire and does not cause the healing that we need. we need healing and tion. we are not getting it from this administration. >> if vice president bidenins the white house, what is thehe first legislative priority he should pursue in terms of that healing and action you speak of? mentioned, he is calling for a day one to be able to focus on a commission that brings folks together to talk about how we address this systemically. how do we deal with systemic issues of race and justice? if i really appreciate -- i have known joe biden for over 30 , our vicey senator president an

, mala, i don't know, whatever. >> reporter: harris' spokesperson firing back, calling the remarks incredibly racist. and in this final stretch, some republicans now creating distance between themselves and the president. two republican governors -- two republican governors, charlie baker in massachusetts and larry hogan in maryland now saying they will not be voting for president trump and senator ben sasse of nebraska warning that if president trump does lose the white house, it could bring the senate down with him. eva. >> it is going to be an interesting couple of weeks, rachel. thank you so much. >>> now to this pandemic. cases surging across the country. the covid tracking project reporting that the latest daily case count, now more than 68,000, is the highest the country has seen since july 30th, and according to an internal department of health and human services memo obtained by abc news, 24% of hospitals across the country have more than 80% of their icu beds filled. that is a critical marker. abc's trevor ault is outside a hospital here in new y

harris. >> kamal-- or kamala or kamala, or kamala-mala-mala, i don't know. whatever! , not a hard name to pronounce. it's kamala harris. get it right next time, senator david pube-dew. i mean, puke-dude. i mean, pure-doo-doo? senator perv-dookie immediately came under fire for being racist, because yeah. so his campaign released a statement trying to backtrack, saying he "simply mispronounced senator harris' name, and didn't mean anything by it." which is pretty hard to believe, since he's worked with harris in the senate since 2017. in his defense, he never actually heard her name pronounced because he's spent the past four years with his head firmly lodged in the president's keister. biden's also on the campaign trail, but instead of talking to people in a trump-style super spreader mosh-pit, he's hosting drive in rallies where people just come to the rally in their cars. we have footage of one couple who really enjoyed biden's speech: ooh, looks like somebody voted early. >> folks, as my college used to say in college, it's go time! this is the most important electi

mala, i don't know. whatever. >> senators perdue and harris have served together since 2017. they're also both on the budget committee. a spokesman for perdue's committee says the senator "simply mispronounced senator harris' name, and he didn't mean anything by it." joining us now is vincent evans, the political director for senator harris. vincent, good evening. >> hey, josh. thanks for having me. good to be with you. >> would you like an apology from senator perdue? >> look, we're not focused on the comments by senator perdue, and we don't have much time for name calling. we've got 17 days till election day. senator harris is not focused on that. our campaign is not focused on it. what we are focused on, though, is doing everything we can to make our case to the american people about why joe biden and kamala harris would be best to serve over the next four years. >> senator harris has to get a little tired, though, of people dragging her name through the mud, literally. i mean, this was pretty well below the belt. isn't the senator interested at all in senator perdue eithe

harris. take a listen. >> but the most insidious thing that chuck schumer and joe biden are trying to perpetrate and bernie and kamala, mala, mala, i don't know. whatever. >> century perdue's communications director says he didn't mean anything by it. he serves on the senate. he's on the same committee as her. julie, do you buy that excuse? >> i don't really buy that. he, of course, knows how to pronounce kamala harris's name, and i think it's important to note that this is not really a one-off even what we saw from senator perdue is probably one of the most greejs examples we've seen. we've seen multiple republicans throughout the last several weeks mispronouncing senator harris's name and for a lot of people, this has smacked as racism, a way to try to undercuundercut her, the first black woman to be on a major party ticket and this is probably one of the most egregious examples but it follows a pattern we've seen for several weeks. >> it's really just disturbing to hear that. >> gross. >> dr. reiner, there's obviously so much passion and energy on both sides about the upcoming collection right now. we've been reporting
