look at melania. melania agrees with you, but everybody knows that donald trump is the one who everyone should know. donald trump is the one who appointed the supreme court justices that got rid of roe v wade, got rid of the right to abortion access around the country so i think that's an important thing to to remember, you know we're talking about the ad a second ago. i just want to jump in here on one thing. we're talking about the different communities that we're talking to. there's another ad that i saw today that i think came from the lincoln project that's targeting african american men, because we are seeing that donald trump is making some inroads with african american men. the tail end of that ad, the very last thing they say is be a man, vote for a woman. i think that's an incredibly important thing to remember that moving voters, this this election has got a lot of voters in unlikely places. and so we're talking to all of them if we're going to move people to the vote on november 5th. >> er

melania trump, meantime, is getting political. she's speaking out about abortion rights in her upcoming memoir. abc news reporter andrea fujii has some excerpts. >> we're seeing reported glimpse into former first lady melania trump's new memoir in which she breaks from her husband's stance on abortion, supporting a woman's right to choose. in excerpts published by the guardian and not independently verified by abc news, she writes why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body? a woman's fundamental right of individual liberty to her own life grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes, adding it is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government. the memoir detailing her life is set to be released next week. >> it is a lot of misinformation and falsehoods written about me, and i want to put the record straight.

but melania trump is not just the former first lady.also the spouse of the republican candidate for president. so it is very unusual also that her team would send such requests and such a high amount for request to a news organization. and let's be clear now, the publisher now says after we reached out to them that this was a miscommunication. but it's very clear in the conversations with cnn and in the contract that we've seen that they knew who they were dealing with, because the contract very clearly lays out that it's cnn, that the contract is with and that it is for an interview. and i would like to stress there were several backs and forths between the publisher's team and cnn before this contract was even sent. so i will say that in their statement, the publisher says that neither melania nor anyone from her team knew anything about the nda and the document that was sent reflected an internal miscommunication. this is coming from the president and publisher of skyhorse. they went further and said, had cnn signed the nda in the no
