and if it's a full bomb, only psaki can tell us.ness, you used that podium and, of course, you were representing the whole administration and speaking to the whole country. but at times, you spoke as a woman on these issues. let's take a listen. >> who does he believe, then, should look out for the unborn child? >> he believes it's up to a woman. i know you've never faced those choices or ever been pregnant but for women out there who have faced those choices, this is an incredibly difficult thing. >> jen? >> look, everybody -- my sister has a t-shirt she sometimes wears to the playground that says, everybody knows somebody who has an abortion. that may or may not be true, but most people do, or someone who has struggled with fertility or someone who had a pregnancy that did not go to term where they had to make a difficult choice. this is an issue, as you said, ari, it impacts not only women across the country and women of child-bearing age, whatever you want to call that, but also their grandmothers, also they think about their da

it is kind of just like jen psaki and a bottle. funny, relatable in every way.ut many people when they leave the white house per ticket high-profile positions like you have the right books. you had through three presidential campaigns the state department you've had a front row seat to history being made. passing the affordable care act cap saving the economy under obama. huge negotiation with iran and cuba on the state department. and it's what the most consequential andup eventful fit couple of years of a presidency with president biden. what most people do is write a book telling that story about what they saw it. there's had a chance of the world and he was at his ever met you that you would tell a tell l book. you want to write theat book tht is their perspective on what they saw it. you wrote a very different book even though there a lot of really great fastening stories andre their he wrote a book that is an advice book apart are struck by that decision when a thesum has written a book befori know one wednesday after book comes out you go to that you look

the day before, in an interview with jen psaki on the msnbc tv channel, the american tv presenter, don lehman, who was scandalously fired from the cnn tv channel a year ago, generally stated that kamul haris is not even known in many states, well , as for trump, voters believe that his rule has improved the us economy, but... the united states is eagerly awaiting september 10. that is the day when the first televised debate between trump and harris will take place. no matter how hard the republican candidate tried, he failed to persuade his opponent to take part in the debate earlier, on september 4 on fox news. therefore, on the 10th, on abc news, which trump, by the way, calls the most deceitful, disgusting and unfair, the candidates will have the opportunity to win the hearts of voters who have not yet been conquered by anyone. as for the rules. trump said that they will be held in the same way as the june debates with the participation of joe biden, the microphones of the participants were turned on only when each of them was given the floor. however, the harris headquarters has no

so we did pull one piece of sound, a classic jen psaki.hing around here. >> you're getting a sake bomb ? >> definitely a shot. if it is a full bomb, only you can tell us. but in all seriousness, you use that podium, and of course you are representing the whole of ministration and speaking to the whole country. but at times you spoke as a woman. on these issues. let's take a listen. >> who does he believe should look out for the unborn child? >> he believes that it is up to a woman to make those decisions, and up to a woman to make those decisions with her doctor. i know you have never faceless choices, nor have you ever been pregnant. but for women out there who have faced those choices, this is an acutely difficult thing. >> look, my sister has a t- shirt she sometimes wears to the playground that says everyone knows somebody who has had an abortion, that may or may not be true. but most people do. or someone who has struggled with fertility, or someone who had a pregnancy that did not go to term, where they had to make a difficult choice

joining the conversation, we have the host of "inside with jen psaki," jen psaki, coauthor of "the playbookyork times," patrick healy. let's start this hour with brand-new polling out this morning that shows kamala harris taking the lead over donald trump this time nationally. new numbers from "usa today" and suffolk university show harris ahead by five points, 48% to 43%, among likely voters nationwide. that is within the margin of error, but does mark a major shift from a poll conducted immediately after june's presidential debate between trump and president joe biden. and that survey when biden was still the presumptive democratic nominee, he trailed trump by three points among registered voters. harris' surge is being driven by major gains among some key groups. 18 to 35-year-olds have gone from backing trump by 11 points in june to now supporting harris by 13 points. among hispanic voters, harris leads by 16 points after trump led biden by two back then in june, and harris has also expanded biden's 47-point lead with black voters to a whopping 64-point lead now, and jen, let's get your

but jen psaki, as you know, this is hard work. it's really hard to communicate. a crowd to come, to show up. that stuff isn't easy. it doesn't come naturally, so you need to have a natural authentic connection with your running mate, and there just isn't one there at all. so the harris/walz campaign is out with a new ad targeting latino voters across battleground states titled "determination." it is their first ad since governor walz joined the ticket. take a look. ♪♪ >> when you're raised by an immigrant mother, you learn what's possible with determination. >> determination is how kamala harris -- >> went from working in mcdonald's to -- >> prosecutor. >> state attorney general. >> u.s. senator and vice president. in only one generation. and with that same determination, she always defended us. as a prosecutor, she protected us from violent criminals. as vice president, she fights for women's reproductive rights every day. >> she beat the pharmaceutical companies to lower cost for insulin and prescriptions. >> as our president, determination is how corporations
