we're watching that severe thunderstorm watch that just popped in atlanta, so, north georgia, western south carolina, and along these lines of storms, we've seen more than 100 severe storm reports, most of them for damaging winds in excess of 65 miles per hour. but by tomorrow morning, southeastern iowa, southern illinois, i want you to wake up and know you've got severe storms. have two ways of getting warnings. by the evening, western iowa, eastern nebraska are going to be under the gun. i also want to talk about under this ridge, we have excessive heat warnings, including memphis, greenville, there in mississippi, back to kansas city, and that area we're watching for development by the weekend, we could see our next named storm. right now, too early to tell who it will impact, but anybody in florida, the bahamas should be watching it closely. david? >> david: the wind picking up in the new york area, as well, tonight. ginger, thank you. >>> we are also tracking this out of control wildfire, the park fire north of sacramento, now burning an area larger than all of los angeles. the f

would travel 200 miles deep into thete territory and steal a confederate atlanta and drive it north to je georgiar. which union troops were capture. along the train journey, they would destroy enemy bridges, railroad tracks, telegraph lines, disrupting communications and vital supply sabotaging the railroad that the confederate army used to move all that would make the union capture chattanga likely and that would cut off the confederate army from both valleys, a huge strategic victory. could bring the war to a swift end. the risk of thi mission, the risk of all of this mission, were if caught, they boo certainly be killed -- if caught, they would certainly be kd. philip, joran and all the men were given a chance to walk awt on of them did. not one of them walked away. insteaey changed into civilian clothes, got a few hours' sleep, and set out for georgia. several days later tphaoerlg all of them, including george and philip, made the rendezvous point, a train station just north of atlanhered waited until morning when the conductor and passengers for breakfast. that's when they made their move an

before hitting wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia, arizona, and nevada. today, the harris campaign announced a 50 millionth campaign to tell the vice president's story. >> the one thing kamala harris has always been. fearless. as a prosecutor, she put murders and abusers behind bars. as california's attorney general, she went after the big banks and won $20 billion for homeowners. and as vice president, she took on the big drug companies to cap the cost of insulin for seniors. because kamala harris has always known who she represents. >> this campaign is about who we fight for. we believe in a future where every person has the opportunity not just to get by, but to get ahead. where every senior can retire with dignity. but donald trump wants to take our country backward. to give tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations and end the affordable care act. but we are not going back. >> i'm kamala harris and i approve this message. >> donald trump was not on the campaign trail today. but he is still having to answer for his promise to supporters that the

of people who were waiting outside to get in and get to work from atlanta to savannah, from the north georgia mountains to the coast. we are going to be working to repeat what we did in 2020. what we did in 2021, and how we sent raphael warnock back to the senate in 22. we are going to work to win and we're going to get it done because it's about meeting people where they are understanding their needs, investing in their future, and speaking truth about what's possible. >> so you do think it's more likely that democrats can win georgia with harris at the top of the ticket than when the chances of it but when biden was at the top of the ticket i'm saying that what we have in front of us is of campaign that is energized and ready to go. i strongly supported president biden when he was the nominee. i will strongly support vice president harris, but what we know is that this is a race that we can win because we have a standard bearer who's going to put every we think she hasn't to this and we're going to fight together to make certain we hold this country together and move this country forward. i

a lot of work to do, and they're going to try to do it fast. >> georgia and north carolina, the traditional suggestions and strategy has been focus on upper midwest, focus on michigan, pennsylvania, focus on wisconsin. are they suggesting do you that they're going to spend more time in georgia and north carolina? >> what i'm hearing from really harris allies, i think the campaign is still trying to lay it out. i don't think they're discounting the midwest by my means. her first rally right outside milwaukee, it was the biggest campaign event from the biden/harris, of course now harris campaign it held ever. there were a number of people there, and she was really going after donald trump just a few days after the rnc was in wisconsin. they are still looking at the midwest. georgia and north carolina, they think feels more in play to them, is what i have been hearing from campaign aides and sources close to the vice president. i will say, i was in indianapolis also with her this week, and she spoke to zeta fie beta, a historically african-american sorority, part of the define nine, group of a

north carolina and georgia are so significantly -- significant. you are also hearing that in terms of speculation, who he might choose as a running mate, among those names that have been floated already. governor cooper was finishing that second term and served for 16 years, including with vice president harris when she was the california attorney general. another name is mark kelly, from arizona. someone who is a veteran and new but brings a lot of qualities as well. the country is taking stock of this decision. it is one that was very difficult for the president to make. he decided in order to win, he could not continue to fight on two fronts. one on trump and the other against his party. he is putting interest first and foremost by making the decision. >> the phones have been burning up the lines. groups are organizing. >> i am told by a source familiar the president has been working the phones over the last couple of hours. there are countless people that want to speak to him. it is speaking about that decision and getting to the potential con

. >> i bled the district in north north georgia with marjorie taylor greene. >> he was pretty abusiveyou people wearing masks during covid and i was will traumatized by that as you describe my politics were center left. my husband was always republican and we got along fine for years and then it seems so everything is kind of broken and we both now are registered democrats in utah, which is rare, worried about what might happen after the election. yes. it's very worried, very ready. i have three daughters. they all live in red states in there in reproductive age, which is in their 20s. and i really worry about there options. >> when we spoke to hocl and afterward, she said she'd barely been able to sit through the debate initial reaction was shocked and then just sadness and then i think i moved into anger. >> do you think joe biden should be replaced? it hurts me to say that, but yes. i don't think he's electable. i don't know how you dig out of this hole. he could do more events where he looks better. he's looked better since then and they can time it right. but everyone knows deepe

mid-atlantic places like dc and virginia down through the southeast, through the carolinas went into north georgiaing some of these moderate, even in some places, severe impacts from drought when we've had a stationary front literally just parked across the southeast, a lot of this week, that's continuing with the rounds of showers for some stores. and you can see the storms continue to ignite on sunday as this front kind of stays put, we'll have those storms ignite again, especially with the daytime heat and humidity later on in the de most of these storms look like they dropped some where on one to two inches of rain, if you get a real juicy storm, you could see some three or four inch totals that could cause some minor flash flooding if you're over an area that's already saturated from the week, things are again kind of parked and stalled across the southeast and it's because they're also kind of parked, installed across the west with this dome of heat and humidity that just continues to sit and bring up above average temperatures from the pacific northwest down the california coast. but again,

once she makes that determination we will be going to not just pennsylvania, but georgia, north carolina, arizona. across the blue wall, making sure we are communicating directly with the voters that will decide the pathway to 270 electoral votes. we will be doing that on the ground. we will be doing it on the airwaves as you said. we launched our first ad for a $50 million ad campaign between now and the convention and we are able to do that because of all of the people who have chipped in and helped us raise $200 million in the first week of the campaign, so our goal on the ground, through the vice president and her running mate, the work on the airwaves and the internet is to relentlessly communicate with the voters will decide the election and that is what we are doing tonight and what we will do for the next 98 days. >> do you have an updated fundraising number for us? 200 and what? >> i don't yet but tomorrow is a monthly fundraising deadline, so i encourage everybody if they wanted to be as big as possible, go to kamalaharris.com and chip in. >> always on message, michael tyler, c

that she's all it on 4 more years in the white house, she visited some battleground states, north carolina, georgia, florida, to rally with military families and veterans. the first lady said she hopes to draw contrasts between the president's attitude toward u.s. service members and that of his opponent. >> recent study says america's in the middle of a mental health crisis and the election is not helping. that study was released 2 days before the first debate. it says 2, 5, americans for fort report feeling not depressed or anxious about the upcoming election. experts are trying to remind people the stress is temporary. >> november will come november will pass. the inauguration will happen. life goes on. put into context. not the end of the world right? i think sometimes our fears get exaggerated or mine runs uncontrolled and then. we had dark place. >> doctors say of the feelings. don't go away. stress, anxiety, get some professional help, especially if the stress is beginning to affect your health, your work for your family life. >> well, the news never stops here. kron 4. >> and let's check in

georgia. and of course it was losing in north carolina as joe biden did last time around. but now now the harris campaign believes they could win this way, but they could also win in the sunbelt. so let's say that she loses in pennsylvania, michigan, and wisconsin, but she can still when she can still get to 275 by winning in nevada, arizona, georgia, and of course, north carolina. so basically she's providing more pass herself? yes. joe biden had a path, but it was a very narrow path kamala harris's campaign believes that they can expand the map, get more past went on the sunbelt here and lose in the great lake battleground states were have some combination here, right? where maybe you win in pennsylvania. >> but that just because you lose michigan doesn't mean you're going to lose exactly, exactly right? just because you lose in one of the states appear it doesn't mean game over. it means you have more opportunities. and of course at the end of the day, this is a brace for the electoral college. it's the race to 270 and the harris campaign believes they have more past be

north star. right. and you would end up either in a free state or work nation. canada. out of south carolina and later out of georgia. once slavery was legalized. what this book teaches is that underground railroad did not run north primarily. it ran sound. so. if you and i have been living in an enslaved society in south carolina, in particular, and later in georgia and if we will, seeking to go south to freedom, where do we go to florida, let's say a florida get a man who had he said florida. florida. people go there now for low taxes. but originally. why was florida a destiny nation of choice for freedom, seeking black folk in spanish so the florida georgia border was an international border, right? so just how canada was an international border, the georgia, florida border was what international? and what was unique about the spanish. the spanish florida, the northernmost outposts and oglethorpe that greeted him, too. they all foot land, freedom and sanctuary to any enslaved british person. black enslaved by the british who could make it to florida would be given land, freedom and sanctuary. but you had to join

pennsylvania -- one of the reasons i asked about wisconsin -- michigan, arizona -- arden me, nevada, north carolina, georgia. with marginal leads and all of them, does he actually wind up being able to expand the map into other states that republicans haven't experimented with? one of them is new mexico. maybe virginia, maybe minnesota. the minnesota congressman is leaving his seat to go work for trump. that is a sign of a certain amount of confidence. i'm not saying that trump will win those states. even virginia and maybe new jersey. who knows what. maybe all of the polls are wrong or we are misreading with the top line is saying and not paying enough attention to the markings of error. right now where it stands, july 13, 2024, is donald trump has an argument to make that he could get as many as 300 electoral college votes, even 320. 320 is high but that is with the campaign is seeing. on the democratic side, does joe biden survive? i still think the answer will be yes. what is his campaign going to do to keep delegates from bolting? politico said they are starting to call them up and say, are you with th

swing states decide elections and donald trump is leading comfortably in north carolina, georgia, arizonawisconsin, pennsylvania and. he is leading in all seven and all states i mentioned. 43% supporting biden is more anti-trump than go biden. don't wins. unless things change on the ground, donald trump is your next president. >> joey: the president will sit down for an interview with abc on friday. >> we understand concern and get it, president did not have a great night. it was a bad night, it is not uncommon for inkcumbents to hav a bad night. it was a bad night, we all have bad nights or bad moments. it is not unusual. >> joey: joe, i think it was a bad night? >> joe: she's utterly bad at her job. she said at least on seven occasions, mentioned a cold the president is suffering from. one hell of a cold. it affectses you cognitively and you cannot artic lalt thoughts. for biden to do this interview 10 days after the debate shows how slow and inkocompetent this president is. abc news obloige that this be pretaped on friday and will be shown on sunday. you will not see joe biden do a liv

travel blitz for the vice president and her running mate that includes wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia, arizona, and nevada notably kate, all of those states minus north carolina, or were ones that president biden narrowly won in 2020. so the campaign is trying to keep all of those in play by sending her and her running mate next week and priscilla, the trump campaign is out with its first real big ad buy to attacking kamala harris, the focus of that immigration, how she pushing back on this republicans and the former president have wanted to label her the borders are going back to her task, leading diplomatic efforts in central america. >> she was never charged with overseeing border security, but in this case, it doesn't matter. and the republicans arguments against her but notably, the vice president is taking the attack as well and going on the offensive on an issue that up until this point, the administration had really distanced itself from take a listen to what she said yesterday. >> went after transnational gangs drug cartels, and human traffickers that came into our country il

. >> president biden: i did events in north carolina, events in georgia. i did events like yesterday, large crowds, overwhelming response, no slipping. i just had a bad night, i don't know why. >> the president will hold a solo press conference on thursday after nato wraps up and will travel around the country headlining key fundraisers for him. today the president is at the white house, only thing on his public schedule is his daily intelligence briefing. >> steve: thank you very much. all eyes on the president on thursday with that press conference. he's not had a solo press conference since november of 2022. and now suddenly the white house p press corps has curiosity whether he is up to the job. there are a number of democrats who in public are saying that he can't do it. "new york times" yesterday had a great interview with somebody at the white house now, senior official who worked with joe biden since he was vice president and says essentially he cannot beat donald trump. this guy is not the old guy and this guy would lose. >> ainsley: after the deb

my focus will be on north carolina and georgia. i assume that is the direction they will go. >> typically, you would want to roll out something like this as soon as you can following your opponent's political convention. the rnc is behind us. trump and vance are already traveling together. how sure does the ticket need to be before chicago or will be running mate be decided there? >> i do not think it needs to be sure at all. think of trump announcing j.d. vance on monday of the convention. the delegates will be meeting with the committee and those groups. you do not need to have a nominee for a while. trump is at high numbers in the polls well above where he has been all year leading by five or six points in some states. of all the names we listed on the short list for v.p., almost none of them have name recognition above 50%. there is going to be a tremendous focus on the seismic event because it is so massive to the process of democracy. that will naturally attract eyeballs. we will see massive name recognition shift the polls m

caused by armed violence in the united states occurred in the states of texas, louisiana, florida, georgia, north carolina, illinois, and california, respectively. yemen's resistance to the targeting of an oil tanker, which banned the entry of ships into the ports of the territories, published images of the targeting of this oil tanker with a shahpad file in the red sea. on monday night, the yemeni resistance announced the targeting of three ships carrying aid to the zionist regime in the sakh mediterranean sea. yahya seri, the spokesman of the yemeni armed forces, emphasized to defend the nation oppressed palestine ships carrying military aid and other aid to the land. ashura procession and raising the flag of imam hussain (peace be upon him) in the capital of england. the participants in this march say: imam hossein's message is to stand up against the oppression of the oppressor wherever you are. expressing love and affection to hazrat seyyed al-shahda (peace be upon him) from karbala mu'ala. as far as western europe, the blessing of this flag is that we see so many mourners, mr. abu abdullah

. >> bill: you wonder if georgia or north carolina becomes more in play than what we've seen based on our own polling in georgia trump was at 50% plus for three months now. karine jean-pierre now on what we might hear from joe biden tonight in the oval office. >> i think he will address whatever is on his heart. he understands where people are. he understands having done this 36 years as a senator, eight years as vice president and now almost four years as president, he gets it. he gets where we are as a country. let's not forget there is at lot at stake. a lot at stake, guys. our democracy is at stake. >> bill: listen, i will take a guess at what he will say and you can give me a course correction here. he will talk about the inflation reduction act and everything he has done for 3 1/2 years and sell it as hard as he can at the age of 81 coming off covid. i expect him to endorse kamala harris and that is the message tonight. then we'll ask how much he shows up on the campaign trail between now and november. what is your guess? >> i think it only has significance, bill, in the fact th

but this sort of re-expand the map to the sunbelt states, arizona, nevada, georgia, north carolina.itect of the 50 he stayed strategy in the arts 2000 ats. do you think that's realistic now, how does harris expand the map is not only realistic is this essential first to do it in this presidential election. and we should never give up on a single state because if you do that then you can sign yourself to for election after election, after election to try to climb up this, this red wall. so i welcome this. i agree with the funding's i saw some very surprising poll. i think it was writers, but i'm not sure that showed harris up by two over trump nationally now we all know that national numbers don't matter as is the 50, 50 states that matter. but yeah, that her strategy jen o'malley, dillon in the vice president's strategy is exactly right. and they shouldn't be doing that and they can win in north carolina and georgia thank you what's the difference between harris and biden then in those states there's an enormous difference. >> the biggest one of all is that this is going to help her

the coming days they campaign saying that just today it will be holding events in michigan north carolina, georgia, wisconsin, and pennsylvania following on dozens of events taking place across other battleground states leading up to this point. of course, the calendar is very crunched at this zero point there are a lot of deadlines coming up in august alone. we've learned from sources that vice president harris and her team are expected to lock in a running mate by august 7, that would be a process that would be just about two weeks from start to finish. august 1 is the earliest date that the rules committee has decided that early voting could begin. and then of course, there is the convention that 19th through the 22nd, less than a month away at this point. so certainly there's a lot to do in just the next few weeks, guys. >> yeah, not a lot of real estate left on that calendar. kayla tausche. great to have you on all the morning's. thanks so much for being with us. appreciate it. >> the presidential campaign getting curiouser and curiouser, donald trump hitting the pause button on a debate with

obama in a landslide is accurate if you look at donald trump leading in every swing state, north carolina, georgiaizona, wisconsin, michigan pennsylvania, florida and ohio are gone but the map is expanded were trumpets leading in new hampshire which hasn't gone read in decades. virginia hasn't gone red since 2004, new mexico in decades, new jersey is competitive, colorado is competitive. i could go on but this president is not nimble to defend all the swing states and also the other states are being thrown into the mix and by the way take the mental part out for a second he is losing on every major issue, inflation is what it is, crime is what it is, energy independence is what it is and emigration in the border is what it is. until those conditions change unless biden gets better with age, tell me how he wins, i don't see it but we are 120 d days. david: very quickly, the scandal which i think is been resolved and somebody getting fired to radio host admitted that biden aides gave them the questions that they wanted them to ask the president and they used a few of the questions. where do you thin

. >> there's wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia, arizona and nevada.to nbc news that kentucky have a andy beshear is undergoing vetting. also on the list is mark kelly of arizona and transportation secretary pete buttigieg. pete under consideration. get him over to the vetting part, and to be sure, stick around for "morning joe" as the crew asked senator mark kelly about the possibility of joining the ticket and his role on the campaign, but joining us now msnbc's political analyst brendan buck who served as press secretary for former house speaker paul ryan when he was a vice presidential nominee. brendan, thank you so much. all right. what's your take on the list. you put out some interesting observations on x. you thought mark kelly and tim waltz perhaps were not as serious. >> that was on my list. >> okay. tell us your take on this process, how you -- how you think each of these candidates could fit a potential harris ticket. >> let me start by saying the obvious, that you should pick somebody who you think can be president. >> yes. >> that's a qua

next week philadelphia, wisconsin, detroit, north carolina, georgia, phoenix and vegas with her vp. >steve: campaign says don't read too much into it just because josh shapiro was raised in philadelphia and we are starting in philadelphia that it's going to be josh shapiro. remember, it's not too far from rehoboth beach to philadelphia. there is a possibility this could be some sort of a joint passing of the torch with joe biden. and whenever joe biden does having something, it's always in philly. >> brian: do you realize his schedule is totally open? do we even have a president? he has nothing on his schedule over the next three days. he shows up at the lbj library and disappears again. we have a crisis in the middle east. is he even capable of running this country? you have got a vice president pretending it be the president. and a president who is not the president. and at current candidate pretending as if she has the policies of the former president donald trump. if you are confused, hold on tight. because nate silver also weighed in and used his complicated map to talk about the

democratics made gains like places like north carolina, georgia with two senate seats, but it's about, character. who did she connect with, who did she have a personal relationship with? i'm told she's close with senator kelly, but retired thera thought inside the white house that may be brought in the net at this point of the discussion. >> is it about personality or something more in a tight contest like this? mark kelly, would he bring the 11 and look for old votes or does he need the 20 electoral votes and the most win of pennsylvania? >> that's the calculation between her and the senior staff of the campaign. they see ways to win both areas, may be minnesota has to be worried about because trump urges has started or at least seeing some growth. than the sun belt, nevada, arizona, concern about new mexico, and what would it be like to have two westerners essentially on the ticket? so all those things are factors, perhaps the biggest one will be if she's a prosecutor and a senator and someone is her vice president from the west, do you worry about geography? >> you have to engage i

the blue wall states of michigan, wisconsin, and pennsylvania, and the sun belt states of north carolina, georgia, arizona, and nevada, where the vice president's advantages with young voters, black voters, and latino voters will be important to our multiple pathways to 270 electoral votes. we intend to play offense in each of these states, and we have the resources and campaign infrastructure to do so. what strikes me as multiple pathways to 270. you didn't hear biden talking about multiple pathways a couple of days ago, they were talking about getting keeping that blue wall wall built. there was literally to biden should go to the sunbelt states all phone together, right? jen o'malley, dillon and the campaign had said in a separate memo, maybe about a week or so after that disastrous debate, that said we're focusing on the blue wall stage, you know, the sun states were quote, not out of reach, which was political code for like, if we can get them, but we're going to focus on states for now. so the tone and how they feel that they can go on offense. now with camila harris at the top of the ticke

followed by it blitz of travel to battleground states that includes wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia, arizona, and nevada importantly, all of these states minus north carolina, where states that president biden narrowly won in 2020 and states that the campaign wants to keep in play with a blitz like this. and of course, the campaign is taking into consideration who would bet strengthen the vice president's electoral chances in the election by two in their process for choosing a running mate. now, of course, something that's not on her calendar yet, but that the vice president was needling former president donald trump on yesterday is that september presidential debate? take a listen to what she said to be his running mate. >> sure. seem to have a lot to say about me. and by the way, don't you find some of their stuff? just be plain weird. i do hope you'll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage. because as the saying goes, if you got something so there you have it. the vice president indicating that she very much intends to show up to that presidential debate that i've been previou

in terms of paths to victory, they are looking at north carolina, georgia, and will not abandon the midwestign in wisconsin. someone talk to me this morning, nevada, the west also someone interest. a lot more going into this decision, but very early. >> chris, let's talk that distinction, the distinction between coming from a state and possibly winning that state's electoral votes, like mark kelly from verizon or more cooper from north carolina or tim walz from wisconsin, versus seeking a candidate who appeals to a demographic with you can benefit from sharing of. some of those will be overlapping. what is your sense of geography versus democracy here? >> this is something my co- author and i studied pensively in our book to look at to what the vice presidential candidates deliver their home state or a region? we find very little evidence of that. in terms of demographic appeal, it is off if you find someone from a democratic, you therefore increase workboat share among that of voters. kamala harris did do better among black and women voters, voters in particular in 2020, but just barely. i

soldiers,ip would travel 200 miles dp federd steal afe train near atlanta and drive it north to chattanooga, just over the georgiader. which union troops were preparing to capture. along the, they would destroy enemy bridges, railroad telegraph lines, disrupting communications and vital supply lines. sabotaging the railroad that the confat troops. all that would make the union capture chattanooga much more likely and that would cut off the confederate army from both valleys,c victory. could bring the war to a swift enthrisk of this mission, the risk of all of thisis if caught, they boo certainly be killed -- if caught, they would. philip, joran and all the men were given a chanc to walk away. not one of them did. not one of them walked away. instead they changed into civilian clothes, got a few hours' out for georgia. several days later tphaoerlg all of them, including george andnx it to the rendezvous point, a train stn atlanta. they gathered at midnight and waited until morning when the conductodassengers disembarked for breakfast. that's when they made their move. quickly and quietly, they detached three box h

before kicking off a blitz across battleground states that includes wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia, arizona, nevada. importantly, all of the he's states except for north carolina, were states that president biden narrowly won in 2020. so the campaign is trying to keep all of them in play and try to notch victories in each of them for the vice presidents, would that will be her plan for next week, of course, part of the process and choosing a running mate. running mate is who is going to give her the best and the strongest electoral strength. and that is part of the conversation that is happening. that they are all working against the clock to make and also the very same time priscilla at the white house, president biden is making moves to announce a new national security memorandum on drug trafficking and fentanyl, what what's going on with this us? this is a memorandum intended to curb the flow of fentanyl. this has been a concern for the biden administration and the white house. now, what this memorandum does essentially direct the agency's to better share information that includ

she has to have opportunity in places like north carolina, georgia, arizona. think the trump campaign has to focus on blue-collar voters that are going to be the backbone of their operation in those blue states, as well as a 30 mile radius around maricopa county in arizona and a three mile radius around atlanta, georgia. people still feel the country is going the wrong direction. he has to speak to those concerns. if inflation is too high, speak to those concerns. that's the real key for the trump campaigns electoral map. geoff: was j.d. vance the right pick in light of what we now know, likely, harris as the democratic nominee? >> like the rollout of the message, the first 72 hours of j.d. vance on the campaign trail has not boosted a lot of confidence. i think there is still time to turn that around. the main goal of any vp candidate is, what we used to call bracketing, to undermine the other campaigns message every day three times a day, three different media markets around the country. i think he is still getting used to that. you take your toughest day on

yesterday alone in north carolina, georgia and florida.evin mccarthy was interviewed about what is he seeing? what is he seeing behind the scenes? he said she is actually the one who calls the shots. listen. >> jill out there, she is hard campaigner. i will tell you it's much different of why i know that they're going to stay in this race. jill doesn't want to leave either. many times we had meetings in the oval office, jill was there as well. many times -- i don't think she is there for policy. i think she is there to give him comfort and direct the meetings. >> steve: it was very telling in that sound bite we just played with her. joe is all in and so am i. many who feel because the president appears infirm or needs stage direction. she is essentially the stable manager. >> ainsley: maybe it's i'm all in so therefore is he in. >> steve: they are fighting for their lives but rather than him being out, because he can't. she is out. that's why she is barn storming. that's why she was in three states yesterday. because they had made it clear

hit the ground running through the other critical battleground state, wisconsin, michigan, north carolina, georgia a final decision yet, but we do know that these faces, the ones you see here remain the most likely contenders. back with us right now is michael hardaway. look, i mean, whoever she chooses, should they be elected is a heartbeat away from the presidency, so let's not under value that, but in very real terms, getting to the white house, how important is this decision? >> it's incredibly important. and if you look at her options here, she has a litany of really qualified people who can do this job and really add value for her in a number of ways. we've got tim walz from minnesota, who is an exceptional messenger, and she's also polling all of minnesota and being up eight points. that's helpful. jb pritzker in illinois is an underdog, but i love his overall presentation and his understanding of the issues that americans deal with, and he is a midwesterner, which also helps her. and then of course mark kelly in arizona. he provides a beacon of strength in terms of her ticket and issues su
