mitch landrieu, though, americans are not reacting that way. given the president credit for the lower unemployment rate, not giving credit for inflation coming down. they're seeing gas prices, food prices, the things they have to deal with, home rentals are higher than they want them to be, higher than they have been. >> that's correct. >> gas prices are likely not to come down with the opec 2 decision today as well. these things are not getting across to people, and, you know, you've twice now in this interview -- twice that i have counted -- called donald trump a convicted felon. we were guided by some other people inside the white house they were not going to refer to him as a convicted felon. they were going to talk about the importance and integrity of the judicial system. will the campaign be more aggressive on the economic front, and being very blunt about what's happened in the courtroom? >> i don't know what's inappropriate or wrong about stating a fact. donald trump is a convicted felon. if the other cases -- if this in fact was the w

. >> mitch landrieu is the national co-chair of president biden's reelection campaign and mitch, it's great to have you here tonight. just first on this new york times editorial board, the argument? yes. thank you for being here. they're calling for president biden then to step aside and their basis for this is they're saying the last night he struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term, he struggled to respond to mr. trump's provocations. he struggled to hold him accountable for his lies, his failures, his chilling plans more than once he struggled to make it to the end. of a sentence. mitch, i just it's a question everyone had. i think what happened last night? >> well, first of all, the president and politely declined in new york times offered a stand down he's going to stay in this race and he's going to win president biden today. you just showed a great clip of him that's the joe biden that i know. that's the joe biden then i'll worked with for two years in the white house as we rebuilt the country and built 15 million jobs and created the lowest unemployment r

let's it so mitch landrieu to start a great guy. he's the governor of new orleans during katrina, so he's used to clean it up disastrous, right? excuse me. besides the mayor, he was the mayor of new orleans. he so he's just to clean up after natural disasters, which last night was a natural disaster. let's not make any puns about it, because if joe biden had a cold mckinney was really concerned about his cold. he went to the waffle house and just infected like a whole bunch of people, wasn't wearing a mask. so i'm not so sure the cold thing anybody's buying the gold thing, right look, it was it was just a terrible performance by the guy. the big question now is that is he not just fit to run for president for next term? is he fit to serve the balance of his term? because i guess the one thing that i know is true that xi jinping was watching last night that vladimir putin was watching that all are all the bad guys around the world were watching. and they're thinking right now might be a good time to test. let me ask one question abou

>> no, nobody knows. >> and joining me now is mitch landrieu for president biden's campaign. mr. rieu, welcome back to "meet the press." >> nice to see you. thanks for having me. >> let me get started. president biden asked for this debate in june, the earliest general election debate in history. aides privately tell me that the campaign was looking for an opportunity to shake up a race that has largely been static for months here. is president biden the underdog in this debate? >> no, i don't think so. the president has debated donald trump twice and beat him twice already. the president is anxious to tell his story to the american people as he has been doing for the past three and a half years, listen, this race is going to be tight, everybody knows that. it will come down to a couple of votes and a couple of important states. joe biden wakes up every day thinking about the american people, fighting hard for regular folks, thinking about ways to lift everybody up. donald trump wakes up every day pretty much thinking about himself, thinking about his rich friends, and then really

we'll take you to normandy, and i'll talk to mitch landrieu, co-chair of the biden re-election campaign> plus, new details about the drugs and the gun at the heart of the hunter biden trial coming from his late brother's widow. it's the stuff of sensational headlines and family turmoil, but what does it mean for the legal case itself? >>> and donald trump adding new fuel to calls for retribution against his political enemies insisting he'd have, quote, every right to do it. he also said the country doesn't want it, but would that stop him. >>> but we begin against the backdrop against the beaches of normandy, that powerful evocative symbol of the fight for freedom. today it's where president biden on the 80th anniversary commemoration of d-day warned that in his words democracy is more at risk today than at any time since world war ii. the ceremonies were a moving mix of messaging and emotion, first president biden and french president emmanuel macron awarded medals to some of the 180 surviving veterans gathered there, many in their 90s, some over 100 years old. then mr. biden honored t

they're mitch landrieu. thank you for perspective now from to cnn political um, titers from the left and right respectively, van jones and david urban. david, i mean, do you agree with trump leaving the door open to prosecuting political opponents? do you think he do it now, listen first of all, just real quick. second, mitch landrieu, great, great guy, but man, i wish we had daniel dale on to fact check all the stuff he's saying. presidents never said he's going to send seal team six after here is political opponents were making this argument to the spread exactly it was illegal occupant donald trump. so donald trump never said that. you've heard he can shoot somebody on the street and his supporters, he didn't say that. okay. it did say that. understood. right. but but but mitch is just defending democracy. it keeping democracy free and keeping it alive i've been america. there's a quitter pi pull that just there's just out that shows in the state of georgia that the georgians trust donald trump to preserv

joining me now to discuss is mitch landrieu. he is the national biden campaign co-chair. of course, the former mayor of new orleans, mr. mayor. good morning to you. want to start? my sister? >> i want to start with what those voters had to say. what do you say to them this morning well, first of all, the presidents started off slow last night. >> there's no question about that and with the two clips that you showed taken out of context when joe biden said, watch me, he said watch my performance and nothing that happened last night has changed the fact that joe biden pass for the biggest pieces of legislation that was seen that created 15 million jobs, the lowest unemployment rate, high wages, and an economy that's off the charts and the way that he's going to attack bringing cost down you will spend the whole day with all of your colleagues talking about the style of the debate last night, right? but one of the things that is really clear is that last night when donald trump was talking basically everything that he said was a lie and they will malevolent lies. and i think

up next, we talk to national co-chair of president biden's re-election campaign mitch landrieu e willus. first, what some of our fox affiliates around the country are covering tonight. fox 5 in new york as the suspect in the gilgo beach murders faces two new murder charges. officials believe rex heerman targeted the women for being sex workers. heuermann is already charged with the killings of four other women. his next court date is july 30th. fox 2 in detroit as a tornado in suburban livonia kills a 3-year-old boy. powerful storm spawned the twister which toppled a tree on to his home. his mother was critically injured. a 2-year-old baby was not seriously hurt there. and this is a live look at san antonio, texas. one of the big stories there tonight from our affiliate fox 29. spacex rocket completes first full test flight after launching from texas, the ship returned to earth with no problems. the previous three test flights ended in explosions of the rocket and the spacecraft. so congratulations to spacex. that's it tonight. we're outside the beltway from "special report." we'll be

he will have those exclusive interviews with governor kristi noem and biden campaign co-chair mitch landrieu. if you just stick right here with us for today in the bay, meet the press is on at 8 a.m. right after this newscast. and as always, coming up in about 30 minutes from now, we'll talk to nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston for our weekly segment. we'll take a look at the recent slew of u.s. supreme court decisions and the most recent one, which upheld the ability of the government to deny felons convicted of domestic violence to own guns. apple's new ai is not being welcomed in the european union. a 2023 eu law is blocking three recently announced features from apple, including its apple intelligence ai product. at issue is the digital markets act, which requires services to operate across platforms to promote competition. apple has privacy and data concerns about that, and says it will work with the eu to come up with a solution to allow the rollout of its new products. but for now, apple intelligence iphone mirroring and enhancements to the screen sharing product shareplay

but as you heard there for mitch landrieu are also ready to throw it right back okay, kevin, thank you very much for that preview. while the trump campaign is already looking past the debate and towards next month's republican national convention cnn, steve contorno was with the former president in philadelphia where he announced news of a running mate ellison, we have learned that three names have emerged as front runners in trump's vp search. senator j.d. vance of ohio, senator marco rubio of florida, and north dakota governor doug burgum, trump yesterday said he's made his decision, but he's not living that person know yet, nor the public in, my mind yeah. >> did they know nobody knows. that's what do you like spp those remarks came during a stop for philly cheesesteaks amid a full day of campaigning by the former president trump really enjoying juxtaposing how he spent his final saturday before the debates versus joe biden's more studious approach listen to what he told his philly rally later that night, right now, crooked joe's gone to a log cabin to study prepare no, he didn't do

. >> we did hear from one key voice, mitch landrieu, who's a co-chair of that campaign. he talked about this idea of which trump would show up on the debate stage, would be a restrained presidential trump. would it be a bombastic, ferocious trump like we saw in 2020? listen to what mitch landrieu said today. >> it really doesn't matter how donald trump shows up if he comes in unhinged like he is most of the time, or he sits there and his quiet people are going to know that he's a twice-impeached, convinced it did felon, who has been found to have defamed somebody sexually abused somebody and gone bankrupt six times. they will always know that and that is something that the american people have to think about. >> so you here. they're a preview of sorts of what you might hear from president biden on the debate stage when it comes to all of the legal issues that have been surrounding president trump this is certainly a major backdrop to this entire campaign and will be a major backdrop as well to this debate. this face off on thursday night kevin lip tech, cnn washington me

does it surprise you that this has been discussed well, i didn't necessarily read what mitch landrieu was saying in that way. >> he could have just been referring to the public conversation because let's be real. joe biden is already the oldest president in american history. he was deciding to run again for a second term in which he would be 86-years-old at the end of that term. so that's been a very public conversation. what i've been struck by it, frankly, was that there was a lack of a meaningful as far as i can tell, inside conversation in the white house and at the upper levels but the democratic party a meaningful process of debate and discussion about whether biden was the best position to run at the time it might have made a difference in reporting in my husband's piece in the new york times this week about biden's presidency, the thing that really struck me was that there was no apparent real process for making this decision. it just became at a certain point, assumed that president biden and his wife, the first lady, had come to an understanding and then the white house move

second, mitch landrieu, great, great guy, but man, i wish we had daniel, dale on to fact check all this stuff. he's saying presidents never said he's going to send seal team six after his political opponents. >> well, we're making the argument to the spread exactly. it was, it was a illegal occupant, donald trump's so donald trump never said that. >> you've heard he can shoot somebody on the street and his supporters, he didn't say that okay. >> it did say i understood. right. but but but mitch is just that he's defending democracy. it keeping democracy free and keeping it alive in america, there's a quitter pi paul that just, there's just out. let's shows in the state of georgia that the georgians trust donald trump to preserve democracy more than they trust joe biden. if the democrats are going to run on abortion to democracy, that's their big underpinning. gotta, you gotta vote. joe biden because the boogie man, donald trump's can still democracy from yeah, well, the voters are buying it at least in the state of georgia. so i think interesting when you're see donald trump was passed

biden campaign co-chair mitch landrieu and republican governor kristi noem of south dakota will be onhe press this sunday at 8 a.m. we are back in 60s, just ahead, the bay area teen who is living life in the fast lane to make my debut with arrow mclaren at my home event, is really special for me. he's a rising star. the 19 year old from palo alto, who will be on the track at laguna seca this weekend. plus, here's something you don't see every day a coyote just walking down the street. yeah, a wild sighting in san francisco that has a neighborhood's attention. i'm chief meteorologist jeff ranieri. that fog is back for the morning. we'll show you how fast it all clears coyote just strutting down the street this evening. this is video from the city's coal valley neighborhood. the animals seem to be minding its own business. while coyotes aren't that unusual in the city, this sighting on frederick street definitely turned some heads. san francisco animal care and control is reminding us it is currently birthing and pup rearing season for the coyotes, so they can be more protective and ass

and former at trump administration official, matt mauer is i want to play a bit of sound that mitch landrieu, the former new orleans mayor, who is one of the chairs of the binary luck campaign. what he told us the morning after donald trump's criminal conviction, because i might be connected to what we're seeing on capitol hill. listen to this joe biden. as you know, gets up every day thinking about the american people, thinking about trying to preserve our freedom, preserving democracy, making lives better if everybody else in donald trump wakes up every day thinking about himself so matt, on that point and here's the connection. does this play into that argument from some democrats? because now on capitol hill, where i don't think people have found them to be overly functional. the last several months, they're now saying it really is all about donald trump and just about donald trump. >> matt well, the most important thing is with donald trump says as long as donald trump goes out there and campaigns and you saw this, even some of his comments on friday and even after the jury made their d

it's a giant moment for both of them and you're here, mitch landrieu there looked the biden people have an attack plant against trump. i would argue he's the incumbent president. i would also say that's the way i look at it from history. never have we had to precedents running against each other. so the american people are going to be watching this and there's the last three-and-a-half years of their life in joe biden. and there's the four years of their life before that in donald trump so i get the biden campaign wanting to go after the trump record. of course. of course. but i would argue from my travels, they also better affirmatively looked the american people the eye and say, here's what i would do, not just what he would do, but here's what i would do on cost of living. here's what i would do on other issues. he's the incumbent president and history tells us people are essentially deciding, do i like what i have or do i? want to change? now that argument is a lot more complicated when the changes, donald trump and that's the argument biden can make. but as the incumbent yes. i get

but let me start with mitch landrieu's comments.ng into the wilderness when this happened but i don't think the debate should happen on thursday night. i think the day that donald trump got convicted the day he became an adjudicated criminal, the biden camp should have pulled out and say it is against the presidency to debate a criminal. it is too little too late for that. but we're seeing the normalizing. this is serious consequences. this is donald trump the criminal candidate putting him on stage with joe biden and i think it is a strategic decision that they made. the way to remember he's a felon is to say we're not debating a criminal. now for thursday night, short of a medical episode, i don't think anything that happens thursday night by either candidate will change the direction of the case but i think it will confirm the contours of it. i think joe biden will overperform. like he did at the state of the union. he's always underestimated and i overperforms and i think donald trump will be donald trump that helps joe biden. b

biden/harris campaign co-chair mitch landrieu was asked about this yesterday.did have this to say about trump's troubles. >> i'll let the president say what he's going about to say. the fact of the matter is the sky is blue and donald trump is in trouble. i'll let you sit with that for a second. the former prut has to sit with his probation officer before he sits for the debate. it's just a fact. it goes to his behavior and it goes to his character. remember, he's actually filed bankruptcy six times. that means he's not just a bad business guy. it means he screwed all the small people who actually relied on him for a living, and so the american people are going to see that. when you have 17 former cabinet members saying, i witnessed this guy. the people who know donald trump the best like him the least, that should give you a moment to think about that. >> biden is mocking trump ahead of thursday's debate. speaking at a rally in philadelphia, he attacked biden while adding a wild unchecked claim. take a listen. >> as you know, crooked joe has gone to a log cabi

marc, this is mitch landrieu, the national biden campaign cochair, talking about the idea of replacing, this is a conversation that's been going on for the two and a half years. it's not likely to happen. again, i think as the dust clears on this thing, this campaign has still got four months to go, and i think that a joe biden's going to be the nominee. anita: okay. so what do you think? real quick answer, i want to move on to something else, is he going to be the nominee, and should he have committed to that second debate? >> he have committed to the first debate. he's losing in the polls nationally, losing in the swing states. not just one or two, but all of them. this was a hail mary on the first debate, and they threw a pick six. anita: okay. i want to move on to this, something everyone is talking about, trump's potential vp pick pick. some people say he needs to pick a woman. others say he needs to pick an african-american. some people say he needs to pick a a latino. i think we have -- there you go. here are some of the faces that the everyone is talking about. it might be one

mitch landrieu used the word fight 11 times in one interview. that is no accident. a recent cbs poll showing 66% think donald trump is tougher than president biden. how is the president going to come back at the debate? they're similar in age. just three years apart, but there is a physical difference. do they just look different and joe biden has been plagued by just the physical present. the way he walks. a lot of fake or cheap fakes as we look at some of these falsely edited clip that is the trump campaign have been putting on to put him in the worse possible light. >> thanks for having me. a couple of things. it's important to take a step back and keep in mind that president biden and donald trump have not been on the same stage in nearly four years. since then, several things have happened. number one, donald trump has been impeached twice. number two, he's been convicted of 34 felonies so he's now a convicted felon. and number three, women's reproductive rights have been severely put in jeopardy because roe has been overturned. i will tell you this. he's takin

announcement of the conviction as national cochair for president biden's re-election campaign, mitch landrieuh us this morning. we appreciate it. let's start right there. what is the reaction? what is your reaction to what we heard yesterday. the historic moment. the first conviction ever the former president of the united states. >> well, i think it's a very sober moment for the country and a very sad moment for the country. for all the people in america to have a president or ex- president become a convicted felon. that's nothing for anybody to have a lot of joy about. but yesterday you sought democracy work. one of the fundamental tendons of democracy is that everybody in the united states is subject to the rule of law. you come before a judge and jury of your peers. facts and evidence are held and the verdict is rendered. that is what a nation that relies on laws and not of men is supposed to do. as a consequence of that trial, donald trump is now a convicted felon. but that does not change the fact that the only thing that can stop him from getting to the white house is the american peop

watching "meet the press" when peter is joined by south dakota republican governor christie nome and mitch landrieue first debate will be hosted by cnn thursday night. you can watch our coverage at 9:00 p.m. eastern, 6:00 pacific, anchored by lester holt and savannah guthrie. >>> the war in the middle east is showing no signs of letting up. at least 39 people were killed on saturday by israeli strikes across northern gaza. according to palestinian and hospital officials there. meantime, thousands of fighters from iran-backed groups in the middle east say they're ready to come to lebanon to join hezbollah in its battle against israel if a wider war breaks out. back here at home, police in arkansas say a fourth victim has died after that shooting rampage outside a grocery store. nine other people were wounded when a gunman opened fire in the parking lot. police say the alleged shooter, travis posey, will be charged with four counts of capital murder. >>> could use happy news this morning. the paris olympics are just over a month away and team usa is starting to take shape with america's biggest stars

joining me now is national cochair for the biden/harris campaign, mitch landrieu. thank you for taking the time. i want to start with what i laid out there because what struck me from watching the speeches this week of president biden giving them overseas, and echoes of reagan, a clear ho reminder to me and many people of how far-flung from our values america's values, trumps values are and part of the message was also about fighting for something bigger than yourself, as the rangers did hear i wanted to ask you, what does the campaign hope that people watching from home, people just tuning in, may take away from the speeches that the president gave this week? >> it is great to be with you, thank you. most americans, i was mesmerized by the trip this week , commemorating the 80th anniversary of the most heroic day in the history of america and the history of the world. those young men, 17 and 18-year- olds scaled that incredible battlefield and fought tierney. the president went there to remind people with sacrificing for democracy looks like, but he was standing o

we got a little insight from one of the campaign manager advisers, former mayor mitch landrieu, who spoke to specifically the donald trump aspect to all of this. listen. >> it really doesn't matter how donald trump shows up. if he comes in unhinged like he is most of the time or he sits there and is quiet, people are going to know he's a twice impeached, convicted felon who's found to have defamed somebody, sexually abused someone. >> the trick for the president is, of course, trying to balance a couple of things in short bite-sized answers. that's what they're working on. they're going topic by topic on what they expect will come up. as you saw from mayor landrieu, they do expect there to be a personal clash and for there to be attacks lobbed back and forth between these two men that touch on some of these major other issues we've seen throughout the cycle, where we could see president biden talking about former president trump's criminal and guilty conviction, where you could see president biden bring up specifically what we've been talking about a lot today, which is former president t

it was actually the campaign co-chair, mitch landrieu over the weekend who said it's irrelevant, it doesn'ton thursday, that baz they're going to try to make that contrast so stark, that that is what voters will take away when they watch. >> and for the trump side of things, nbc news has reported he's not doing any formal debate prep, no camp david sessions or the like for donald trump. he's just been calling people and talking to them. and the campaign has said publicly they believe joe biden is his own worst enemy. seeing the two men next to each other will be enough for voters to see who is more forceful, who's more energetic, according to them. monica alba, thank you very much. on thursday, rachel maddow and team leads special coverage and analysis of the debate hosted by cnn. watch thursday beginning at 7:00 p.m. eastern here on msnbc. >>> coming up, what former national security adviser michael flynn is doing right now to make a whole lot of cash on maga. >>> and aileen cannon, the judge in south florida, hearing the classified documents case, has two hearings today. what might she de

room and surrogates, we want to do that right now and go to biden campaign national co-chair, mitch landrieue commanding performance from your candidate you hoped to see? >> i thought it was a bare knuckles brawl. the president started off slow, but he came back. the most compelling thing that you're right about more than you're right about anything else is that when donald trump was speaking, he was lying. the fact there's no fact checking is incredible. it is hard to debate somebody who is untethered from the truth. he doubled down on the fact that january 6th was no big deal. he doubled down on the fact he was an election denier. he doubled down on the fact he thouú reversing roe versus wade was a great idea. he doubled down on the fact that the economy was the best in the world when in fact it was not. these debate versus a way of coursing overtime. before tomorrow morning, when you fact check what was said, you are going to find out almost everything donald trump said tonight was a fabricated lie. >> mr. mayor, will that be the conversation, or will the conversation be about the physica

. >> here's one of president biden's top supporters, his campaign co-chair, mitch landrieu, trying tipping his hand a little bit on the president's theme for thursday night it really doesn't matter how donald trump shows up. >> it becomes in unhinged like he is most of the time or he sits there and his quiet people are going to know that he's a twice and convicted felon, who has been found to have defame somebody sexually abused somebody, and gone bankrupt six times. they will always know that and that is something that the american people have to think about there is all that. >> let's bring in julia manchester. she is a staff writer for the hill. julia. good morning to you. thanks so much for being here so we are now seeing the trump team as we head into this debate, trying to shall we say, heightened expectations for the president because they have spent so much time arguing that the president is basically incapable of doing his his job. so my my question is, at what point i mean, that sets the bar for president biden bo so low now they seem to be trying to raise it up and say, well, as

mitch landrieu, i think you've got all the talking points in there today. just fyi thank you so much, justice, truth, justice truth. sara is all objective me, harry harry will fact check you, but i know most of what you said. >> definitely true. thank you so much. john leonard. thanks to mayor was talking about the presidential debate heat, which is now just ten days away. that's next week right here on cnn. so much at stake today, donald trump meets with the house speaker and another key republican at mar-a-lago. cnn's alayna treene is with us. what's going on here with these meetings later? >> well, that's right john donald trump will be meeting today. with house speaker mike johnson, as well as the chairman of the national republican congressional committee, richard hudson. and luck, i think this meeting is very important for both sides. what the two house leaders want is for donald trump to help get their members and their candidates elected as fall and donald trump has some agendas of his own, which i will walk through. but first i just want to talk ab

and so that is a version the president that his team has been preparing for mitch landrieu, who's a co-chair of the biden reelection campaign, said yesterday on meet the press, though, it doesn't matter which donald trump's shows up to this stage that his reputation precedes him. and that biden is going to call that out kylo tausche life for us from the white house. >> thank you so much. kaitlan let's discuss us with cnn senior political commentator and former special assistant to president george w bush. >> scott jennings also with us democratic strategists julie rogan ski. she is the co-founder of lift our voices. thank you both for being with us. scott first you a very disciplined donald trump i don't think i've seen that on a debate stage before. you have actually the second debate in 2020, which by the way, i had forgotten, but i realized recently they also had muted microphones that night, but trump came out in my estimation, very disciplined, very measured, and i actually think he won that exchange. now that having been said, the first debate was a disaster, he was overly aggressive.

matter, fun fact -- i would not be standing here today if it was notul mayor mitch landrieu. you. ■love that. thank you. mr. landrieu: good morning. you sound like -- new orleans p that is how you say it. 's try that again. good morning. it is great to be home again. when i was listening to mayor lucas and i was thinking about the fact that his son was just borly thought back -- my father was the mayor of the city of new orleans when i was 10. i started coming to these conferences as a little kid and had the opportunity to get mayors flowing through my soul and in my blood. i became mayor of the cityleanst years of my life, the best job i ever had. and i am thrilled to be back here with the people ti and love. as president biden knows, mayors get things done. you hear this all of the time, because in fact it is true. not a lot of smoke needs to be blown about who the people are who get things done in america. to team, to mayor lucas, thank you for having me here today. you guys election. elections in the united states america are supposed to be sacred events. they set us apar

some of what we're hearing from surrogates this morning, including including campaign co-chair mitch landrieu. take a listen that's it. >> it might loss of debate on style, but he wanted on facts. he wanted on decency, and he wanted all the ideas that people think are important in the country. i don't think that you can call it the debate as a great time. president biden, i think he had a rough, time was like there's no question about it now, biden advisers say that they are frustrated that they also were put in a fact-checking position and that president biden had to play that role over the course of the debate, given trump's multiple falsehoods, but still the the image was quite graham according to democrats, the panic has said, and i was texting with allies last night. >> i said, even on immigration, they knew foreign president donald trump was going to slam president biden on that. he still couldn't give that tight message that they were really hoping that he would be able to deliver. yeah. i was hearing much of the same from my democratic sources last night for so alvarez. thank you very
