i am here in the spin room, room works. i am here in the spin room. the — room works.oom works. i am here in the spin i room, the debate itself is happening in the next—door room just over there and we were watching on a live feed. we now have the parliamentary sketch writer is bashing out their scripts for the morning papers and we have other broadcasters behind me and what happens after these debates is representatives from different parties come into this room to try to give their party's take or spin on what has happened. we heard a few minutes ago from bridget phillipson, the labour shadow education minister, giving her thoughts. there were interesting moments in the debate both for rishi sunak and sir keir starmer. we heard from labour a few minutes ago with keir starmer being pressed particularly on his previous support forjeremy corbyn, the former labour leader, and he was asked why he had described labour's 2019 manifesto underjeremy corbyn is fundamentally decent and he was pressed on that by the sun newspaper's political editor harry cole and the readers of

the spin room. we are here at nottingham trent university waiting for the leaders to arrive ready for that debate starting at 8:15pm. we are into the countdown to the final head—to—head clash between the two men who would be, could be, the prime minister at the end of next week. it is the election next thursday and in just over two hours, rishi sunak and sir keir starmer will be here at nottingham trent university to face questions from mishal husain, our colleague, and audience members. the general election is of course onjuly the 4th. you can hear a big hubbub in the background, this is the spin room where journalists gathered to watch the debate and report on what they have seen. some politicians coming here to try and put their side of the equation. that is when the hubbub goes through the roof after the debate, as people react to what they have seen. let's look ahead to what may be coming any direction of sir keir starmer and rishi sunak. they will all have been gaming out what kind of question

let's take a spin around the spin room. [background noise] >> our cameras are inside the spin room in atlanta just ahead of the presidential debate. we and other networks simulcast the debate here on our c-span network ahead of that candidates squaring off in the debate we want to hear from all of you this evening. tonight's debate is different than previous ones in many ways as many of you have heard. first time a sitting president squares off against a former president and the first time in 37 years the commission on presidential debate has not hosted a general election matchup. the rules are different. they will be a 90 minute debate. the microphones will be muted when one candidate is addressing the question or responding to a question. no props or prewritten notes are allowed. they will be provided paper and a pen and bottle of water. they will be two commercial breaks 3.5 minutes long. no campaign staff can interact during the breaks. cnn is not allowing other networks to provide analysis or have their anchors fill th

when we do will bring you back inside the spin room. we are also taking your phone calls your text, your social media reaction to tonight's first presidential debates. paul in miami, undecided, paul. what you think of tonight? >> caller: i like the format he did not have a catalling and people screaming and just delaying it. neither of these people are cognitively killing it and what a choice binary to parties. again not trying to be sarcastic about it. biden is a decent person. he looked aged and trump is i don't know, ideology does not stand for anything for just dance for winning. again, i don't know that it moved anything. >> so for you, how will you decide then? >> i'm going to decide this way. it's like i am undecided up until the minute i go in. that's kind of ridiculous. am kind of leaning basically just third party. i'm a little scared trump in the sense i don't think he is a racist but i don't think he is a fascist by jumping he's the worst person in the world but i do think he is in four years not fearful of anything and woul

back to the spin room. senator tim scott is talking to reporters. >> talk about what that meant to have that elevated for this all of a sudden? tim: it's an exciting time for the people living in impoverished communities under donald trump. $70 million committed to the poorest communities, often time majority-minority. that's lid to about an 8% wage growth vs. 3% outside of them. 20% increase in property values applause plus the restoration of hope. it was a really good four years for people who grew up any did. mired in poverty. perhaps the most powerful force for good for the amendment poverty focus on the private sector we've seen in my lifetime. it's always good to hear your name called if it's called in a positive line but bottom line, it's not about me. it's about what can we do to make sure that the american people experience their version of the american dream and that's what we should all be focused on and working toward. host: center tommy scott in south carolina, also ran for president this year.

there are hundreds of journalists for all around the world. >> you are in the spin room what is this om? and what happens there? >> this is basically a basketball stadium at the georgia institute of technology. it has been transformed yet set like yours along either side. workers would eke out points you are seeing the campaign to bring up their surrogates what are their expectations are what they are hoping to get out of this. and we are seeing that play out. local journalist doing things to try and convey what is happening here to audiences like yours. >> what surrogates are we expecting to see in the spin room tonight after the debate? c-span is going to be alive to there for many of the candidate supporters. who are some names we can expect to see? >> it is going to be interesting in terms of years gone past there's been little more freewheeling campaign surrogates will support standing we learn the 70 biden campaign is throwing out their playbook and said they're going to bring out people like gavin newsom from california. people like senator rafael for from georgia. also former

we go back to the spin room. dr. ben carson, the former u.s.ry of housing and urban develpment. good to see you again on bloomberg. welcome from atlanta. we talk a lot about shelter costs as a big component of inflation, and the biden administration has put out its plan to lower housing costs for working families that includes lowering the cost of home ownership to mortgage relief credit, down payment assistance for first-generation homeowners, lowering closing costs. what is donald trump's plan? >> we have to recognize homeownership is an part of the american dream. it is the major mechanism for wealth accumulation, homeownership. it is a high priority. in the last trump administration, we worked very hard to decrease the regulatory burden to make homes more available, to decrease the costs and look at alternative factors for determining who was eligible for fha loans. that resulted in the largest number of black homeowners in history. those are the kinds of things we need to do. then recognize the real cost is the regulations. you heard about

you could feel a meltdown happening in the spin room.ing everywhere for democrats to come in and when they did arrive they stayed together in a pack and answered a few questions and immediately left after the fact. there were 2 camps of democrats emerging tonight. on 1 end there are democrats who are very disappointed and stunned by what happened. cape at benning field a former white house communications director told cnn that it was a really disappointing debate performance from joe biden and that his biggest issue that he has to prove to the american people was that he had the energy, stamina and he didn't do that. the other camp democrats are marching on towards november that includes california governor and gavin newsom who was here in the spin room tonight dodging my question repeatedly when i asked him if he was willing are capable of replacing joe biden at the top of that ticket watch. >> i would never turn my back on the president biden. no democrat and the party would do so even after tonight. we are all in and over the last 2 m

the way it works here in the spin room is that we are all here now and the debates will start at 815saying and then at 930 was the debate finishes, the body will go up in this room and a number of politicians from the labour party and conservative party will come in and give their responses to what we have heard and be spending on behalf of their respective leaders and journalists won't listen to them and test out some of the ferries that are being shared. —— beat spinning on behalf. let speak now to the chancellor of nottingham trent university. thank you forjoining us and hosting. it is a fantastic privilege to have you here. i is a fantastic privilege to have you here. , , , ., , , is a fantastic privilege to have you here. , ,, is a fantastic privilege to have you here. , , ,., here. i suppose this is an unusual da for here. i suppose this is an unusual day for the _ here. i suppose this is an unusual day for the university. _ here. i suppose this is an unusual day for the university. this i here. i suppose this is an unusual day for the university. this is i here. i suppose this

this is the spin room. t their people in, as far as strategies are, as far as where the reporters are, this is where people are. these reporters, these cameras, they're surrounding trump surrogates. you can see the signs. tim scott, vivek ramaswamy is over here. senator marco rubio is over here. we're going to send it back to you to you in the studio, as we give you a live shot of senator rubio. and we'll stay on the spin room floor. >> joining us now from the debate spin room is doug burgum. doug, good evening. thank you for being with us. >> lester, great to be with you. >> we heard from the surrogate for the biden campaign that president trump, in their view, flooded the zone with untruths, half truths, what's your reaction to that? >> well, i think my reaction is that president trump had a very strong performance, and i think america saw -- they saw the challenges that joe biden had just delivering a message. and he didn't have an answer on inflation. he didn't have an answer on the border. and i think t

there'll be here in the spin room.r doug burgum and north dakota senator jd vance of ohio, senator marco rubio of florida, three names that have been mentioned repeatedly. and the last several days are expected to be here to spin on donald trump's behalf. no word yet of if he's actually selected one of them to be his running mate though wolf. so all of this is, obviously we'll be watching the main show that two of them on stage tonight. but all of this is also a key part of the campaign as well. >> i want caitlin, you've covered trump now for the past several years and you've watched him closely were you surprised that his niece, mary trump has now not only endorsed biden, but it is actually shown up here at this debate to speak out so aggressively. in favor of biden's election and wolf, i remember when married trump first came public with her criticism of her uncle. >> you can hear a crowd at the airport right now chanting is donald trump is about to get off his plane. i should note, but, but mary trump came out and s

in the spin room. of republican criticism that the governor focused too much on national politics during his state of the state address on tuesday. a political expert weighed in on the potential. political risk. of stepping into the national stage. >>>what are the optics of it? the people who like him will will think it's ok. the people who don't like them will think it's a terrible thing. >liz>i also asked cbs chief election campaign. correspondent robert costa for some insight on this. >>>>will be just steps away from where i am right now. here at the debate site in the spin room and the california governor is someone who while a lot of democrats think he's a presidential contender. down the line, he is someone who has gotten really comfortable with the biden people. they like him. they think he's an advocate for them that they can trust that he's earned their trust with a lot of media appearances. so they feel pretty good about having him here in the green room, and he's someone who can really the d

you were on the spin room floor tonight.d? >> hi, shanelle, yes, this is my fifth presidential cycle, and one indicator posts debates of how well a campaign feels like they have done is how quickly they get to the spin room floor. tonight what we saw was a parade of triumphant trump surrogates who walked into the room, about a line of 15 went into the spin room, calling this debate a big win for former president trump and saying that president biden's performance tonight was a, quote, disaster. then it was about 10 or 15 minutes later until we saw the biden campaign surrogates come out. the consensus, speaking both to republicans and democrats who tell me on background or on the record as well that the president did not have a good night tonight. it was rough. it was raspy, and at times, rambling. there was some concern that i heard talking to some top democratic operatives about his performance. i do believe that there also should have been more fact-checking against former president trump. but there was some concern from s

cnns, alayna treene bringing us inside the spin room.till pretty empty at this writing, but let me tell you it's always a crash later on in the evening, alayna walk-around, tell us what we're going to see an ad who's gonna be there? >> right? so we are in the hanc mccamish pavilion. it's nicknamed the thriller dome. it's home to the georgia tech yellow jackets. obviously today. and tonight, we will be trading the sports teams for politicos. but luck, as you said, casey, it's pretty empty right now, but tonight, we're actually going to have close to 1,000 journalists for more than 170 countries in this room. and of course, surrogates from both the trump campaigns and the biden campaign's you see this area right here behind me. that's where a lot of the exact spinning will be happening and you're totally right, casey, you're going to see surrogates from both sides claiming that their candidate one regardless of what happens on the debate stage. and so tonight, it's really going to be probably standing room only. it's going to be packed, it

edit interview liz kendall because they're both in that itv spin room. see it filling up now ahead of the big leaders debate between sunak and starmer. stay for welcome back to vote 2024 with me. camilla tominey. now, as christopher hope runs around the spin room at the itv debate, which is starting in, well, just over an hour and a half's time . over an hour and a half's time. we're going to speak to patrick christys because he's got a special show tonight. he's going to be reacting to what is said because he's going to be reacting. he's going to be ringside and reacting to the punch up between sunak and starmer. aren't you patrick? yes that's all about it. >> absolutely correct. yes. okay. so at 9 pm. ben leo is going to be doing a special version of my show. i'm going to be in the boardroom here @gbnews with some very special guests actually watching that leaders debate live so that you, the gb news viewers and listeners don't have to. we'll be cherry picking the very best bits out of that, and we'll be playing them to you at 10 pm. and it's at 10 pm.

i'm in the spin room, as you can see there are reporters and journalists from around the globe here. and this is where the campaigns will make their pitches. this is where they candidates after the debate is over, the advisors will pick up and say c interestingly, the president's to former president, the current president will be alone onstage. they cannot talk to their advisors, they cannot have any conversations during those 90 minutes, but it's right here in the spin room afterward where both sides will be sort of saying how it went for them. so there's no doubt that all eyes are on atlanta. the biggest moment of the 2024 campaign so far, uh, guys, i didn't check election day 130 he one days away from today and i'm 31 days away so close yet so far away in the blink of an eye, but also underscores the fact that this is the earliest debate that we've ever seen. >> there's still about five months to grow before the election jeff zeleny, i imagine you're gonna have a busy night out there in the spin room we wish you the best of luck. my friend you bet. >> take so this is obviously a h

in the spin room last night now i understand even more why so many people think of national media as the democrat party. the entire room was deflated. reporter after reporter after reporter lost like a goose in a rainstorm. a devastating night for democrats and the national press and those who hope that america will rise to the occasion under joe biden. won't happen. great night for donald trump. i will say this without any question. listening to the reporters asking the questions, they were already trying to figure out how to use the -- he developed a cold in the middle of the debate last night it was reported. trying to figure out how to make some kind of excuse for joe biden. there is no excuse for joe biden. >> dana: senator tim scott, thank you so much. great to have you here with us this morning. >> bret: thanks. >> dana: where do democrats go from here? minnesota governor tim waltz talks to us about next steps. a new batch of supreme court rulings. we have more and they could be big ones. don't go anywhere. kduckgo on ale duckduckgo comes with a built-n engine like google, but

when christopher hope is our political editor, he's in the spin room . and you have, i spin room.ael gove with us. do you , patrick? you, patrick? >> michael gove is with me now. michael gove, who won? rishi sunak won six nil. were you worried about the audience applauding the labour's vat policy on private schools, no, because we've got a fantastic record on education. we are the party that's improved. >> state schools . and as far as >> state schools. and as far as i could tell, keir starmer was talking about maths . then he talking about maths. then he said he wanted to have 6000 new teachers . there are 23,000 teachers. there are 23,000 schools in this country. so labour's policy appears to be the way to improve education is to give every school a quarter of a teacher. nothing adds up, under labour other than tax increases , because the real increases, because the real message was that when pressed on the £2,000 tax increase that labour would bring forward, starmer didn't have any answers. he couldn't deny it. starmer didn't have any answers. he couldn't deny it . indeed, he c

the spin room will be busy, as always is, after this event.— i can't help but think there's much they don't know about these two candidates, but it's the nature of the debate in america at the moment that you can't really take your eyes off it. find the moment that you can't really take your eyes off it.— take your eyes off it. and i think that's part _ take your eyes off it. and i think that's part of — take your eyes off it. and i think that's part of the _ take your eyes off it. and i think that's part of the fascination, i that's part of the fascination, christian, is that people are so familiar with both these men, joe biden as president, donald trump was president, everyone news who they are and thinks they know about their personality, they know what they are like as president, they are guessing at what they might be like as president in the future. so everyone i've been speaking to anyway right across the country in the last few weeks, travelling around, are planning on watching this. while they watch the whole hour and a half? i don't
