is republicans probably voted for nikki haley see in that?- nikki haley see in that?ee in that? is not much different from _ nikki haley see in that? is not much different from when - nikki haley see in that? is not much different from when he l nikki haley see in that? is not i much different from when he ran the first time, every time something was said, everyone was like oh my gosh, that's the nail in the coffin, he's never going to be able to win, but when he's getting out which is getting his voters very excited are the people to cross the border. and that is who he is targeting, he's targeting the gangs that are doing various murders and different issues in new york and wisconsin and michigan. so that's what he's getting out. and it's horrible rhetoric, but people like that he talks that way. this is why a lot of the country still supports him.— a lot of the country still su--orts him. �* , , supports him. but everybody likes him, — supports him. but everybody likes him, not _ supports him. but everybody likes him, not even - supports him. but everybody likes hi

and you think about just the fact that it was such a bitter, bitter rivalry between nikki haley and donald trump in that primary that so many of those haley voters that you would talk to had such distaste for trump. and you see validators like liz cheney, who were teaming up with harris do wonder who they might be more willing to listen to >> it's also important to remember that a number of those nikki haley voters continue to vote for her months after she dropped out of the race when she was no longer really even a candidate in the primary, she dropped out. she said that she what's not going to continue her campaign and those voters still said that they would not vote for trump, who at that point was the only real viable candidate in the republican primary. so these are people who are not just going to fall in line behind trump because he's a republican. they have already said that they are willing to look at other options that they want to send a protest signal with their vote for nikki haley after she had dropped out and those are the kinds and to voters that kamala harris in her campai

ran against him in the primary to campaign for him. >> listen to this let let me just tell you, nikki haley, and i fought. >> and i beat her by 506090 points i beat her in her own state by numbers that nobody's ever been beaten by ai be nikki badly. i beat everyone else too badly i mean, frankly, i set records both in speech and in the magnitude of the way. and everybody keeps saying that they don't say get ron and ron did very well but again, i beat everybody by numbers that has never happened before. and they keeps talking about nikki. nikki, i like nikki. nikki. i don't think should have done what she did madison. >> that doesn't sound like he wants her to campaign with him at all. but do you think that don't do you think that would help him if he did? >> i think she's been out there a little bit. we definitely need her out there more as the republican party, there are a lot of voters out there that did vote for nikki haley. i don't necessarily think that they're jumping ship to go vote for kamala harris. however, i think if we need to get them motivated and we need to get them out there

do you think answer to nikki haley then the nikki haleys irrelevant? >> no, john, it's not john to answer that matters five days before an election. is this, you have young girls who are from other countries who are traffic's to our southern border by the drug cartels, they are rate, they are sold into sex leaky haley on immigration children who have made while he was talking donald trump. what do you harassment, not to line up at madison square garden, the type of language is being used by donald trump and others on the trail. she's saying it doesn't connect with women. what's your answer to what nikki haley's saying, congressman john, i saw it with nikki haley's comments in their entirety was she was talking about was the lineup of speakers at the madison square garden rally when nikki haley was saying as well, how come there weren't more women? >> my response the other day was what, at least the phonic is a woman she's was you're actually change the text was about you want me to ask. >> she's taught, let me play an ad that she talked about specifica

nikki haley and i fought and i beat her by 50, 60, 90 points, in her own state by numbers nobody has been beaten by. i beat nikki badly, i beat frankly, set records both in speed and magnitude and everybody keeps saying that, they don't say ron and ron did well. i beat everybody by numbers that have never happened before. they keep talking about nikki, i like nikki. nikki, i don't think she should have done what she did, that fine she did it. even in north carolina, i beat her by number -- >> brian: right, she dropped out. >> they say when is nikki coming back, nikki is in and helping us already. people keep saying -- they don't say when you are bringing this and that, everybody is in and nikki is in and out campaigning and elon musk, look, i watched a rocket ship land four days ago. >> steve: that was stunning. >> you talk about people, this guy is unbelievable. i was on the phone talking to somebody on the phone and half falling asleep and important guy, very boring guy and i'm like this. the television sound is off and i see this massive like 20 story tall thing and i thought it w

trump getting a warning from republican nikki haley. we have it all covered tonight with mary bruce from raleigh, north carolina, her one-on-one with vice president harris. >> reporter: tonight, in the must win battleground of pennsylvania, vice president kamala harris promising to unite the nation if she's elected. >> we know we have an opportunity in this election to turn the page on a decade of donald trump trying to keep us divided and afraid of each other. that is who he is, but pennsylvania, that is not who we are. good evening, america! >> reporter: it is her closing message. and last night, with 75,000 to hear her speak on the ellipse where donald trump gave his speech on january 6th, harris instead reaching out to independents, and republicans, too. >> unlike donald trump, i don't believe people who disagree with me are the enemy. he wants to put them in jail. i'll give them a seat at the table. >> reporter: but as harris was speaking, president biden sparking controversy with his reaction to the speaker at trump's rally at mad

i do want to mention one thing because we talked a little bit about nikki haley. this is another demographic that they are trying to reach through. nikki haley that right now they are struggling with and that is women, particularly suburban women. we know that he has done a number of these town halls where he has had these republican prominent women host them or need them, whether it be sarah huckabee sanders or kristi noem, but none of them really have the heft that nikki haley has behind her, nor do they have the support that is just outside of donald trump's base. now, one of the things that donald trump has said, he said it as recently as friday when i was at a rally, they said women seem to like my policies, but they don't like me. and then he went on to say some of the comments that he has made that women don't seem to like and he is absolutely correct. we have seen that gender gap in that polling. it is a very real thing. i've talked to a number of sources close to donald trump, republican operatives who all say they believe nikki haley, if she agrees to do

january 6th. >> kamala harris and liz cheney in town halls in michigan and wisconsin, counties that nikki haleyried in the primary. will liz cheney's support be enough to persuade those voters the to cross party lines? joining us, national director of haley voters for harris. all right. the million-dollar question. how are you going to get haley voters to vote for harris when nikki haley herself is voting for trump? >> well, look, nikki haley is entitled to her own opinion. she's made her decision for whatever reasons and i think there are a lot of her previous voters who respect her right to make her decision. they won't be dictated to. they won't be told what to do. these are independent-minded folks which they proved by voting in many cases like myself, in pennsylvania, six weeks after she was no longer a candidate, expressing the protest vote against donald trump. i don't think that haley's position, if she goes out and does a rally or two, will be decisive here. the best polling data we have is that about half, a little less than half, maybe 45% of the haley voters will stay with the repub

look to california as well nikki haley republican, if trump one, no doubt but nikki haley has supporterseither of which need to be asked to join the trump campaign so i asked president trump blocked you plan on using nikki haley side-by-side? she volunteered. >> i don't think you should have done what she did at the time she did that but even in her own state for she was government, i beat her by 50 points or something and they say when is she coming in? the key is in. she's helping us already but will keep saying -- everybody is in and she's in. she's up there campaigning. >> would you like to see more of her what you think i'm off base looking to see her for visible? >> it's about addition, subtraction. we were more people and in the one thing for give her credit for, she ran a good campaign. didn't win but a good campaign where she cultivated people who would follow her. she spoke of the convention, she supporting president trump. especially in swing states, have a go and help along the way because every vote will matter. if we could have rfk and kelsey gabbard, we know nikki haley is

let me just tell you, nikki haley and i fought and i beat her by 506090 points.eat her in her own state by numbers that nobody's ever been beaten. like i like nikki nikki, i don't think should have done what she did and that's fine. that she did it he is not doing well with format but he cannot he cannot get himself to the point where he'll say if you support it, nikki haley, i want your vote i mean, i don't think that's even a part of the campaign's strategy anymore, which is why i think they are doubling down on some of those low propensity. >> i mean, the campaign strategists are telling cnn new the report, the gender gap is real. haley attracts a different kind of voter. she gets a lot of positive media coverage and appeals to women who are unsure of donald trump. they're asking nikki haley to get out there for he didn't you can't turn around and insult her while also asking or he's not doing himself any favors. so you almost have to bet on men and i think that's also an important thing when we look at what happened with obama last week with black men, and we

those are places where nikki haley did well when she was running in the primary especially in oakland county, michigan, trump 49,000 votes. there mean those are the people that they're trying to reach. we haven't seen haley out on the campaign trail. and listen and she may come she may not come. i'm not quite sure if nikki haley shows up that nikki haley voters are going to vote for donald trump because nikki haley's standing next to him i'm not sure that i mean, quite frankly, just because nikki haley says vote for donald trump are women going to be swayed? say, okay, well now nikki haley says it's ok. >> i think just like just like i don't think people just because you have liz cheney saying like, i'm a conservative vote, conservatives, i could transfer, i think i think if nikki haley comes out and takes a blow torch to kamala harris, i do think that people who are wobbling, that that might be fair. >> i think i think nikki haley matters i think she maps to people on both sides and i think that it has been a fatal error for donald trump to not get her out. there sooner. but that tha

interestingly, donald trump will be making a play for nikki haley voters with actual nikki haley, who is endorsed his campaign. and apparently they're talking about campaigning together. so i understand why harris was going after those people, but to me i wouldn't want the people sort of around tangential layali. i'd want the real thing from saying that she has been up until this now, really not around. >> trump had the chance to bury the hatchet with nikki haley and said he just crowed about how much he beat her by. i think that the fact that she's okay at the convention no whether this i mean, that was weeks ago. >> we were talking about last week he was more to that statement. >> but kamala has already said that she is going to name a republican to her cabinet. she's campaigning with liz cheney. i think that the big move she could make would be to name mitt romney as her secretary of state. he got 61 million votes in 2012. i'm sure a lot of the nikki haley voters are also former romney voters. >> you are this idea. >> can i donated by jonathan martin one he's right. because this is

and i also don't think that she did a lot from nikki haley voters. they've talked a lot this week about that they were going after haley voters and i think the haley voters had to be looking at this as like a christmas present. they opened up was socks, you know, they got nothing new from her, nothing that wasn't in her convention speech. frankly. and i don't think this moves the ball for her here at the end i actually talking about nikki haley, i just want to play something that nikki haley said on fox earlier tonight about the last time she spoke to trump because there was a lot of talk about you know, she she made it clear she wanted to campaign for him and was willing here's what she said last time i talked to him was back in june, but they're very aware that we're on standby. they know that we would be there to help. i've helped with some fundraising letters and text messages and those types of things. so we've done that, but look, we're on the same team. it is their campaigns decision on what he needs and these last final days, it does not both

thank you all right nikki haley has a message for donald trump put me in coach. y confirms she hasn't spoken to the former president for months. and while she reportedly offered available dates to the trump campaign, she has not been asked to join him on the trail. former un ambassador did campaign in pennsylvania wednesday for republican senate candidate dave mccormick. she managed to though to work trump into the conversation know when it comes to dave mccormick he's a great candidate. >> but this is the other part of it. i know it's noisy out there when i tell you to take the emotion out and focus on the policies dave mccormick can't win if we don't elect donald trump at the top of the ticket all right. >> we're joined now by meg kinnard, national politics reporter for the associate david press. meg. good morning. it's always wonderful to have you on the show what's going on with this dynamic between trump and nikki haley i, her voters, people who voted for her in the primary are the ones that democrats are trying to turn to their side here at the 11th hour of

nikki haley or liz cheney was wondering those nikki haley voters in the primary in pennsylvania. i think right now, a lot of people can think for themselves. i truly don't think these endorsements matter that much. but what haley is doing is she's she's, she's protecting her political options going forward. and i get that but a lot of us don't have to do that any longer and so i suspect there are a lot of women, especially in these collar counties of philadelphia you know, who are very uncomfortable with donald trump, even if they agree with some of his policies. i think there's a general discomfort with the way he conducts himself than misbehavior the erratic behavior the growing incoherence, and many of his comments so i think there's a lot of concern about him. and so i suspect at the end of the day, people are going to make up their own minds and may be nikki haley's, she'll have an impact on some voters. but i think a lot of those haley voters are gone for donald trump. and i suspect down with trump's gonna have a tough time getting 90% another republican vote, nor didn't wi

and i also don't think that she did a lot from nikki haley voters. they've talked a lot this week about that they were going after haley voters and i think the haley voters head to be looking at this as like a christmas present. they opened up and it was sachs they got nothing new from her, nothing that wasn't in her convention speech, frankly. and i don't think this moves the ball for her here at the end i actually talking about nikki haley, i just want to play something that nikki haley said on fox earlier tonight about the last time she spoke to trump because there was a lot of talk about she she made it clear she wanted to campaign for him, was willing to here's what she said last time i talked to him was back in june, but they're very aware that we're on standby. they know that we would be there to help. i've helped with some fund fundraising letters and text messages and those types of things. so we've done that, but look, we're on the same team it is their campaigns decision on what he needs. and these last final days, it does not bother me at

well, let me ask you about nikki haley because you just brought up nikki haley and where why wasn't nikki madison square garden like what meghan kelly, had a really interesting point which is, you've gotten the bros to the trump campaign. you've got the men and that event was there was stuff there beyond just the insulting jokes by roast comedian. it was very breaux was her argument is very male, very unlike you've got them. yeah. you should be reaching out to the people who are who are likely to maybe not follow the lead of, but they can't about liz cheney are nikki haley? what do you think of that? yeah. >> i was talking to somebody who follows this stuff pretty closely recently in his theory is that this was a don junior joint and that, you know, you could probably on the backstage dungeon was probably chest bumping to people with all those great jokes and all that kind of thing. and they have a theory that's the theory that brought them, that made them pick jd vance is that they have they think that the voters they need to get or the low-propensity dudes were on a couch. i'm convinced

i'm not quite sure if nikki haley shows up that nikki haley voters are going to vote for donald trump because nikki haley's standing next to him i'm not sure that i quite frankly, just because nikki haley says vote for donald trump, are women going to be swayed? say, okay, well now nikki haley says it's ok. i think just like just like i don't think people would just because you have liz cheney saying like, i'm a conservative vote, conservatives i could transfer, i think, i think if nikki haley comes out and take a blow torch to calm on here chris i do think that people who are wobbling that that might be fair. i think i think nikki haley matters think she maps to people on both sides, and i think that it has been a fatal error for donald trump to not get her out there sooner. but that that could be because he wants to be the one that wins. he does not want to be able to say that somebody else helped him be very aquifer to stay home maybe in the closet, but also, we talked about who's already voting. >> i mean, we've got two weeks left and we've seen how this race has not changed a lot

it nikki haley is still supporting donald trump and you would think that the voters who supported nikki haley, even when she wasn't on the ballot. and donald trump was running during the primary. they still came out its support and voted for her that feels like an anti-trump vote more than it being a nikki pro-nikki haley vote at that moment. i did a lot of politics in the south and people have saying this, this stuck pig that squeals. and the fact that lindsey graham, when on meet the press yesterday and began talking about these republican voters. the fact that jd vance has gone full throttle against nikki. i'm against that. liz cheney calling her small and petty and applying. he's just bitter and has hatred. those are frankly not great phrases i've ever used. clicking about women. but they've been doing this. it makes me think that maybe there's something in the data that they're trying to hold back. they seen some movement that may occur with these republican women, and they're trying to stop it. >> it's, it's an interesting theory. i'm erin, as you look at that, what stood out to m

nikki haley, and i fought, and i beat her by 50, 60, 90 points. her own state by numbers and they keep talking about nikki. i like nikki. nikki, i don't think should have done what she did. >> not sure if the most amazing thing is what he said or the reporting that flashed across my screen as we're on air, nbc news reporting according to two sources familiar with the planning that nikki haley is in talks to join donald trump on the campaign trail. can you imagine having someone who could be a really useful, powerful surrogate for you and then just dumping on them for 90 seconds straights. yes, it's a lack of strategy but my goodness. >> the easy answer of course i want those voters. i want all of those voters. and, you know, this also comes at a time when kamala harris is making a very, very concerted play for those haley voters. she, you know, had the big rally with republicans for harris in pennsylvania. she's going to be traveling around the country with liz cheney and they're aiming at those soft republicans and what does donald trump do? he j

do you think those nikki haley voters are gettable?you think there's a big enough swath of those nikki haley voters that puts bucks county in play? >> i think that they're absolutely gettable. and i'll tell you why, first of all we know that during the primary when they voted for nikki haley, many of them on the exit polls said they would never vote for donald trump. they showed up for nikki haley as a protest vote to make it clear that's how they feel. i don't think they're all going to come over for vice president harris, but i think that as a part of the coalition she's building, they could be very effective. >> jennifer horn, really good to have you. thank you so much for joining us from the event out there. appreciate it. and it is the arizona county that could make or break donald trump in that state. what voters in ultra maga mojave county say they will do come election day. >>> plus, what man who was jailed for participating in the capital election says he has planned for january 6th 2025. >>> and we are watching the funeral of

nikki haley reporting that nikki haley, at some point might do an event with donald trump on the trail it's interesting because when he's asked about it, it's not like he said, talks about her in glowing terms, how excited he would be to have her out there, but he might need her based on your reporting of that slice of nikki haley voters yeah. >> he might need her. they are in talks allegedly, it should happen at the end of the month, but nothing is guaranteed yet it might be on fox. it's not just that he would like to have these nikki haley voters about 1 million people voted for nikki haley in the primary and the seven swing states over donald trump and they do represent an opportunity. but the more important thing for donald trump is this just optics were at the optic stage of the campaign. you we had earlier on the show, kamala harris is appearing with liz cheney and that just sends a message about where she is and the trump campaign would like him to appear with nikki haley and just send a message about him working with her and reaching out to those voters. now, just after my repo

house leads straight throat through those crucial states plus the trump campaign reportedly wants nikki haley to join him on the trail during the campaign's final days. >> so why this morning did the former president takes a swipe? but the woman who could help him overcome one of his biggest vulnerabilities. and too close for comfort. >> that's how the architect of obama's presidential campaigns now, a top harris adviser sums up this race. >> david plot will be my exclusive guest this hour. i'm dana bash. let's go behind the headlines and inside inside politics where kamala harris and donald trump or both campaigning today. both crisscrossing the state in the hopes of earning those 15 electoral votes that went to trump in 2016 and biden in 2020. this is new data we are showing you into cnn nearly 21 million excuse me, nearly 1 million michiganders have already cast their votes for kamala harris. today's three stops. come on the heels of a very busy week, check out where the vice president has been since monday. you see a theme here, the harris campaign knows fortifying the blue wall is its be

i would love to campaign with nikki haley.be that will happen for you sometimes these things are a consequence of scheduling. you have to put multiple people in multiple places. i don't know why she has not been on the trail. but she has endorsed us, spoke on behalf of donald trump at the rnc. and you are right, we have bobby kennedy, nikki haley, brian kemp, tulsi gabbard, we are the party of common sense on the right and the left. but i really do think this is important. you ask yourself what candidate can unite bobby kennedy junior, tulsi gabbard, nikki haley, and brian kemp. the answer is the guy who stands for common sense. i think that is what this election is about. kamala harris is the candidate of being the policeman of the world. she's the candidate of starting wars. donald trump is the candidate of ending wars. kamala harris is the candidate of censoring her fellow citizens. donald trump is candidate of the first amendment. that is why i think bobby kennedy is behind us. kamala harris is the candidate of rising pric

i have enormous respect for nikki haley. gifted communicators in the republican party. i just simply disagree with concern over. this it's a cynical look at puerto rican voters when you consider have concerns about prices, the cost of housing, what the chaos that open border policy has had on their communities, crime, everything else, and at the end of it some roast comedian says something offensive and like no, i'm going to go vote for the person who is responsible for all of the above. i don't see that happening. i think when you make mountains out of mole hills at the end of a complain it reflects deeper understanding. kamala harris has put enormous amount of effort to make this the lasting issue in this campaign and it's just not gonna be with an economy where it is, open borders and all the rest. >> bret: you know, a number of big business people have been weighing in interestingly late in this campaign, meghan. here is blackstone ceo steve schwarzeneggerman. >> i think the -- i don't know who is going to win the presid

with someone like nikki haley though, i think it's different. i think bringing someone like her out is, you know, is in an effort to appeal to a specific subset of republicans that she was able to appeal to in the primaries. remember, even though she didn't win the g.o.p. primary outright, we did see her getting significant, you know, portions of the vote, sometimes 10, 15, 20% in some of these states, meaning that there are republican primary voters who like nikki haley. the question is though, are these primary voters going to come home to trump and vote for him in the general election or are they going to be protest votes. neil: as you indicated, every little bit helps, and if you would get a few otherwise might not have shown support for donald trump, but then would. and could i get your take, at ethel kennedy's funeral this past week we have images of joe biden talking to barack obama. i'm not lip-reader, but people who were lip-readers say they were expressing concern about kamala harris and this campaign. again, i don't know how accurate

it is attractive to nikki haley voters. republican voters like myself and it is also the only way that the republican party ever stands a chance of returning to being a sane rational center right party is for trump to be seriously defeated. a lot of people will vote on that basis as well. >> i have to give one more question to craig. you said traditional republican voter like yourself. those who are still voting for him but had your same political ideology, what is their explanation to you now of why they are voting for trump? >> you heard the explanation. rationalizations i would say of people saying you know, i don't like the man, i know his character is questionable. i wouldn't necessarily want him over for thanksgiving dinner around my kids but i like his policies. i like that i have more money in my pocket when he was w president or the word seemed to have less conflict when he was president. there's a lot of rationalized nostalgia. none of that is true. and our campaign is about making sure that these key decisive vot

think those optics worked for her to there are some opportunities for harris in the gop primaries nikki haley won just under 20% of the vote against trump including after she dropped out. and there are indications that many of those haley voters are not firmly committed to trump kara, how many republican voters do you think are really up for grabs that for harris to get? >> i think quite a few. i think it's a woman thing is she's, gotta go for those women that likes nikki haley, and some of the men. i thought she would the fox thing. i think she's showing that they're seeing her my mom was like, oh, she's not dumb which i think what trump has been has been trying to drill in just like, oh, she was smart we all care about the little things. i don't think most voters that are watching this see it. i think they see her and the added plus she didn't sit around and sway to ave maria for 39 minutes. that you get into that that was a visual thing. so i mean, she showed that she could do it not every answer was chris. i think we sit around in the details and most people just see you're showing up, lo

i mean, and who better to get the nikki haley voters than nikki haley herself? i would argue i'm a little perplexed by this liz cheney thing. actually, when you think about it, i mean, this is somebody whose name is synonymous with been like a diesel see insider here, the cheney family names, somebody who is many people consider a war hawk in this country. you have the largest arab american population in michigan, which obviously does not look kindly on and the cheneys of the world. and it's interesting to me that kamala harris is going out there saying, i'm not i'm not i don't want to be part of the biden administration. i want to turn the page, but i'm taking the cheney family name with me. the continent dc insider name saying, oh, trust me, she should be the one that stands up will be president united states. >> i'm curious, what you make of that, in part because there are democrats that have been out now there are critical of harris for campaigning alongside cheney and not more notable republican figures like senator bernie sanders or others. >> well, i thin

but it is kind of pathetic that nikki haley continues to bag and grovel to want to be on the campaignil with him. saw some leaked stories about how she's offered updates to the trump campaign and they haven't taken her up on the offer, but i don't understand why she feels a need to go on the campaign trail with a man who mocked her husband, called her a birdbrain. other than she wants so stay relevant, i guess. but i don't know if that's the way to do it. she really could have been a leader in the future of the republican party when we finally do leave donald trump behind and turn the page. >> i mean, shermichael is it's a wise decision for the trump campaign not to have nikki haley out there and mean it god absolutely not. i think their critique that she provided on fox news was inaccurate why me, sara and i were talking about this during the break. there appears to be some legitimate outreach from the harris campaign to some of these sort of skeptical republicans. can the harris campaign pull enough of them to replicate the biden 2020 victory? i think it's certainly possible, but i

nikki haley also did an interview tonight where she said just spoken to donald trumps since june. notable given how many voters she won in the republican primary, didn't ultimately win the primary obviously, but voted for her and she was commenting on the final tone that we're hearing from the trump campaign. this is what she said they also need to look at how they're talking about women. you've got affiliated packs that are doing commercials about colon kamala, the c-word, or you had speakers at madison square garden? referring to her and her pimps. that is not the way to win women the c-word that was elon musk's pat referred to her as a communist, but obviously with with other it could imply different word there, but i think many people did, which is why they removed that add. >> but i think she makes a really good point about they need to be changing their rhetoric if they want to win over women. but the thing is, he doesn't care about winning over women. that's not their strategy, their strategy is to target low-propensity young male voters, particularly white men. and so he f

let's talk about nikki haley voters. t appeared with haley, hasn't done any campaigning with him. >> it almost seems like the harris campaign is going all in trying to capture those haley voters, going to the districts where nikki haley did well with liz cheney by her side. i think this is obviously not what the trump campaign wants to see. it's a distraction especially she's zeroing in on a part of the electorate that donald trump has been trailing vice president kamala harris with, young women. the suburban women are going to be a key part of deciding this election, so this is a distraction and not something the trump campaign wants to see. we know there's bad blood between trump and haley. yes, nikki haley spoke at the convention, yes, she endorsed donald trump. but she went after him pretty hard at that convention. i don't know what her calculus is here going on fox news seven days before an election to trash trump's campaign. perhaps she's looking towards her future a little bit, trying to save face if something come

and nikki haley's right. there are a lot of dads out there, there are a lot of husbands out there, there are a lot of fathers out there that don't want their daughters and granddaughters and sisters and mothers to have fewer rights than they had a decade ago. and there are a lot of opeople that want to get moving on. they're sick of this. the madison square garden rally turned off a lot of puerto rican voters, but it turned off a lot of women who said, enough of this. we're not going to spend four more years like this. we're going to turn the page. we're going to move forward. and we're going to get things going for our country and our families. >> patricia, earlier this month you wrote internal polling shows black men in particular are a weak spot for harris. you talked to one trump supporter who said many black men feel disconnected from the democratic party, which messages heavily to black women and other minority groups and less often to black men. i'm just curious, what did the men you speak with want to

nikki haley got 33, almost 34% of the vote here. so liz cheney, kamala harris, the vice president, know there was some republicans here who did it nearly 50,000 who did not want to vote for donald trump, if the vice president can get 11,500 or more of those, she's in business and the first stop, anderson for the campaign, let me come back here and let's come back to 2020 again. was here in pennsylvania, where down here in southeast pennsylvania, chester county, one of the collar counties around philadelphia, more and more democratic, but still look at this. joe biden guts 58% there, but go back to those republican primaries. nikki haley got 24% of the vote in this county in pennsylvania, two months after she dropped out of the race. so again, are you going to get all 19? 338 of those people, maybe not in a state as close as pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin, what they're doing here is to try to say, we know there are a bunch of republicans out there who do not want to vote for donald trump. can we win them over to our side somew

they came back to and said, but what about nikki haley? will you call her in? keep a grudgingly answered eventually >> he did and he said he likes haley. how do what he has to do. that is what he told fox and friends this morning. i think there's no question that donald trump and his campaign recognizes that they need to make inroads with women voters, particularly as they acknowledged that widening gender gap apple with vice president kamala harris earlier this week, of course, he did a fox news town hall with an all women audience. so this is really where some of that is coming from. and i think to take a step at back, it's very clear that both campaigns are trying to really gain support from some of these core demographics, not just women voters, but also black men, hispanic think voters, they recognize that this race, this election is going to be incredibly close and really this could be won on the margins. so that's where a lot of this rhetoric is coming. i do want to note that we actually have some new reporting that the trump campaign and nikki haley are

i don't think look, i don't think nikki haley's rushing the joint trump on stage. i think it's a thing and hurt irna said she's got a political future. she wants to figure out what she's got to do. and our enter life. and so i think we'll be here all night because of course we are getting ready for the main event and all over the map, we're gonna get an early read on who has voted so far. we keep hearing record day after day after day. so who are they? more cnn special coverage coming up in a couple of minutes? >> don't let john king have all the phoen experienced the cnn magic wall in the palm of your hand. get live results expert insights, and an immersive election experience periods, the magic wall, find it in the cnn app today. >> it's time to feed the dogs a real food in the right amount. a healthy weight can help dogs live a longer, happier life. the farmer's dog makes weight management easy with fresh food free portion for you your dog's needs, it's an idea whose time has come this is keratin debris were nail fungus grows non-sex nail gel cleans out fungus b

i take issue with nikki haley in one way.donald trump tried to have a message for all voter. we beat hillary clinton on the precipice, majority of voters were female. how? you trust them to hear your message of no new wars, border security, economic wherewithal and the like. but also it is that women tend to hear things a little bit differently. if it really mattered that their first woman president is enough to grab your vote, she would be succeeding president hillary clinton and way ahead of trump. the issue i would say is that this is 16th consecutive presidential election where women are the majority of the vote. hillary beat trump by 13 points but made up the deficits among different groups of women. white women and women without college degrees. i want to say one thing. trump had the og statement on november 9th at 3:00 a.m. when he won. he said i will be the president for all americans including those of you who didn't vote for me and said there are more than just a few of you. i watched him take the sharpie and change
