even trump be your.'s never had any clothes in it showing. is it enough to sing kim? we will ask a couple of campaign experts, next. >>> what's the matter >>> what's the matter with donald trump? a month ago, he was planning what he surmised was his seemingly inevitable return to the white house, leading joe biden and pretty much every key pole. ever since kamala harris took biden's place at the top of the democratic ticket, trump is in sharper decline. short-circuiting in interviews and campaign speeches and on social media as his poll numbers fall in this battleground states that will decide this election. doug jones is a former democratic senator of alabama. she is the ceo and cofounder of the seneca project, super pac to court moderate women voters for kamala harris and they both join me now. it's always good to see you. i would love to start with you and get your thoughts. it is a really close race and the one thing that can do you wrong is complacency. you can't keep your foot off the gas pedal of

we see now harris versus trump. look at this games for the democratic nominee harris up by four in all these states her lead, her advantage. she is now doing seven points better than biden was doing in pennsylvania, five points better, and wisconsin, and three points better in michigan. but jumps across the board. but it's it's not just about these top line numbers. it's about what's underneath the hood. this was something that you and i spoke about right? it's the economy stupid as james carville once said, trust more on economic issues now, this is nationally, but we are seeing a similar trend in the key battleground states. look at this, who do you trust more on economic issues in july, 40, 1% of voters nationwide? i'm wide said trump, compared to 35% said biden. now look how close we are. we're at 42% for harris, 41% for trump. but the consistent thing that we're seeing across all these ports, paul's mr. acosta is the fact that there's a trend away from donald trump and towards the democratic presumptive nominee

personal insights about donald trump and his history with donald trump.s a son. fred trump has a son, william, who is disabled. he talks about that as well. and then he also talks about lawsuits and various fights he had with donald trump over the years. i always find when there's a big book — one like this that kind of comes out and is about someone very famous and making various points, particularly about donald trump — that it hits the headlines. what's the kind of stuff that, if you haven't read the book, you might have come across on your social media feeds or, you know, a news site that you're interested in? yeah, it has hit the headlines. and fred trump has done a number of interviews already with major media outlets. and some of the stories that he recounts about donald trump when he was ten years old — when fred trump was ten years old — using a racial epithet, the n word, multiple times. he also talks about how donald trump, once, in discussing his disabled son william, said, "i don't know why you don'tjust let him die and move to florida." i me

while trump and his allies deny he said that, trump's former chief of staff john kelly confirmed trump did say that, which led trump to attack kelly as he has many of his former cabinet members such as jim mattis and former chairman of the chief mark kelly who trump is accused of treason. then there is what trump would do if elected again, vowing to fire so-called woke generals. watch. >> would you fire those generals? the woke generals at the top. >> yes i would get rid of them. i would fire them. you can't have woke military. >> when it comes to explaining his actions at arlington, trump is being trump of course, deflecting accountability. he started by claiming ignorance in an interview with dasha burns and now it appears he is pointing the finger at the families. >> all of a sudden i hear that somebody that i have no idea who it is got into an argument with somebody else at the cemetery. they said, sir, could you take some pictures with us at the graves of our child? i didn't want to take pictures, but i wanted to take them if they wanted to take them. >> taking aim at families of

and former president trump. and two already take out things to kind of get a jump. i think this could be a very effective move. now, we all know we're not going to have a trial before the election no matter what, just because of the way things are going. but this at least reframes things. and acknowledges that the supreme court it's reached at the terms and tries to go forward on the supreme court's terms. i think it's a way for jack smith to take back the case, even though so much of this and other cases are bound to be back at the supreme court at different points okay. >> everybody stick around. we are continuing to get new updates much more on this breaking news, donald trump hit with a new indictment the superseding indictment of former trump organization lawyer will join me next this yeah, that looks totally safe brief, first-timer hot for sure. it looks safe, but like nearly half of all u.s. cars, it's been accident with our facts.com. you see how accidents impact price. see you don't have to overpay on a

for donald trump, it's important for democrats in relation to donald trump.y continue to put him in the driver's seat. you cannot allow donald trump to become a passive figure, which is why the project 2025 focus and the way the campaign is attempting to thread the needle is key. an ad that the campaign is running, they are saying donald trump, not that project 2025 is dangerous, and therefore so is donald trump, donald trump is dangerous, and because he's dangerous, project 2025 is dangerous because it's real. that is the way in which to not let him off the hook. it's not all of these other people, and donald trump is a passive figure that does not have his faculties about him. he seems deranged, off his rocker, off his kilter, he's not the same person he was 15 years ago or 4 years ago, the sentences are incoherent. he is quite clear about what he would like to do. who the president is matters and who the people are that work for the president matters. the campaign is putting donald trump in the driver's seat so he can not passively say, i don't know about

trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> donald trump. >> total of 24 according to fox tracking, eight speakers included senate majority leader chuck schumer, bernie sanders, others, 24 mentions compared to less than a dozen on economy, border and crime. michelle obama accused trump of doing everything to make people fear her and her husband. he questioned her country of birth. last night trump knocked barack obama on policy and paid him a comp limp. >> i like him, he's a nice gentleman, was weak on trade. look at what happened to our country, trade was a disaster. i respect him and his wife. >> tonight is vice presidential candidate tim walz headlining the event and hear from former house speaker nancy pelosi and bill clinton. back to you. >> ainsley: bring in vice presidential candidate and center j.d. vance. good morning to you. >> good morning, guys, how are you? >> ainsley: doing well. stayed up late last night. headliners are coming on too la

donald trump and ted cruz, donald trump and lindsey graham, donald trump and marco rubio. now getting together. so this idea of it being disingenuous that he's now getting together with kemp, maybe it is, but as you point out, it makes good politics, and who cares what you say about that in and add? if kemp is behind trump, and trump's friends at kemp, that the only thing that really matters between now the time the first ballots are cast. >> when you bend your knee and kiss the ring for donald trump, he has a way to forget your past discretions. i think ted cruz and marco rubio and lindsey graham and mitt romney and lisa murkowski -- we can go down the list of other republicans he has had beefs with. he realized what was happening and had to make a course correction. i think kamala harris has united the democratic party. we had jeff duncan, the lieutenant governor of georgia, speaking at the convention, something i don't think any of us ever thought we would see, a republican with a prime time speaking slot at the democratic convention. so i'm confident with the race that

the trump confidant tells the bowl work quote, president trump is a little on edge these days and itense for staff to have a little something on her so he's not wondering why he's not seeing his stuff on tv. it is what it is. indeed. that is our show for tonight. i will be back here tomorrow, saturday at noon for the katie fang show her i welcome influencer and democratic activist olivia giuliana to talk about how she is turning personal attacks against her into mitigating jen the -- gen z to get out and vote. have a great labor day weekend and good night. >>> it never goes away. there's not a day that goes by th

they said their father gave that to trump as a favor to trump's father. trump's fire was the podiatrist's landlord. the podiatrist got better treatment as one of trump's father's tenants. family said they don't even know if trump was even examined for his alleged bone spurs. that doesn't mean that donald trump believes he hasn't served. in a strange twisted trumpy version of reality. i will say if you have children in the room, you may want to mute the television. what trump is toabout to say he is lewd. >> never got a social disease. >> it is a dangerous world out there. it is like vietnam. sort of like. >> it is your personal vietnam. >> you said that many time. >> a very brave soldier. >> they said more people were killed by women in fact than killed in vietnam. >> yes, that is true. >> so you get criticized for that statement, but that statement. >> i went sas far to say you a braver than any vietnam vet because you are out there screwing a lot of women. >> men are as dangerous to women as women are to men. >> donald trump considers avoiding stds , se

that puts less emphasis on trump and who trump really is, and they want americans to know who trump is, they say. kamala harris, we talked to some strategists that say that kamala harris wants to show americans that she can stand up to trump and she wants to do it in a real authentic way, in a real authentic exchange with trump, not in some sort of artificial way, where it is very quiet and she is responding to nothing. i think that is sort of the back story on that. >> okay, that makes sense. we never know, he might get up and move from behind the podium, much like he did, looming over hillary clinton. he might do that. let me ask you about another developing story, those remarks from trump about the arlington national cemetery controversy, and vice president harris tweeting, let me be clear, the former president disrespected sacred ground, all for the sake of a political stunt. where does this controversy stand, natasha? >> obviously, there is a lot of back-and-forth here. we heard some things from families, who trump participated with, and they were very happy about trump being ther

trump was under that same delusion.has great confidence in his own ability to, you know, make a big deal of something. what i told in the book is, hey, i would tell him, this is the best liar in the world, right? he has aspirations. he has objectives in mind that go far beyond anything in relation to us. so we can't try to placate putin. the only thing putin respects is strength, you know? one of the chapter titles here is, "weakness is provocative." one of the stories in the chapter is my interaction with president trump, showing him on a big chart i put in front of him in the back room of the oval office, the little dining room there. on the bottom of it were world events, u.s. actions that portrayed a sense of weakness or irresolution. on the top of it, just following that, was an act of russian aggression. whether it was denial of service for cyber attacks in 2007, the invasion of georgia in 2008, or the first invasion of ukraine in 2014. the point i was making was, mr. president, don't trade off something for putin

the question is did you vote for donald trump in 2020, so if you had a call that said trump 2020 voters now for harris that would interest me but generic republicans, with all due respect to adam kinsinger, that interests me less. t >> while, nikki haley is a very popular republican and she is out there doing right wing media back in donald trump, talking up his campaign. is she making a difference? is she bringing over all of those voters who supported her a and getting them on team trump? is she on the trail with him? >> well, his -- she is certainly not on the trail with him right now and she bringing in all those photos for trump? certainly not but in the home stretch our campaign like this one we're really talking about a game of margins. the number of people we're talking about who will actually be influential in some of the swing states is in the tens of every one of these conversations matters a lot and it's interesting that you have haley, who was so adamant that she was not going to be supporting trump now out there doing so but at the same time, there has been plenty of repor

trump is clear in his position to deny all of palestinian rights. it was trump who effectively broke at the deal of the century that goed all the un sanctions. he didn't talk about granting palestinian as a state in return for the normalization of arab countries with the occupation entity, it was peace for peace, quote quote unquote. so the democrats however, they believe that by not trump is decisive in his opinions, if he differs with netanyahu for example, he imposes his views more than the democrats would. in crisis, democrats do not differ with the israeli occupation entity, they even argue or may talk against it, but they will seek to protect the entity within the conditions of the war, since the israeli occupation entity is effectively an american project, um, its failure represents a failure to the american project itself, so for that reason they've sent all of their warships to protect the entity, but the material outlook of... trump may differ though, um, if he sees a strategy not making profits for america, he'll stop it, so if trump was in power, he would have likely ende

trump administration. >> i served in the trump administration. >> during the trump administration, i had the privilege of serving as the deputy assistant secretary of state for digital strategy. >> i was on the trump campaign team early on, probably one of the first 15 folks hired. >> during the trump administration, i served as the assistant secretary for public affairs at the department of homeland security. >> during the 2016 presidential transition, i was the director of domestic policy appointments. >> pam, you started on day one of the trump administration. and you stayed until the final hour. >> yeah. shocking that i made it. >> poor pam. they must have really put her through the wringer. of the 36 different people who appear in these videos that are obtained by propublica, 29 of the 36 of them are people who directly worked for the trump administration. or the trump campaign. so yeah, trying to say trump people have nothing to do with this project 2025 thing, we have fresh new polling today from umass amherst painting a very clear portrait of why the trump campaign continues

said their father gave that diagnosis to trump as a favor to trump's father. trump's father was the podiatrist landlord and in exchange for that get out of draft free card the family said the podiatrist got better treatment as one of trump's father's tenants. the family says they don't know if trump was ever examined for his alleged bone spurs. that doesn't mean donald trump believes he hasn't served. in a strange twisted version of reality. at this point i will say if you have children in the room you may want to mute the television because what trump is about to say here is lewd. >> it is a dangerous world out there. vietnam, >> it's your personal vietnam. >> a very brave soldier. >> they say that more people were killed by women in the sack then killed in vietnam. you get criticized for that statement that that statement is -- >> you are braver than any vietnam vet because you're out there securing a lot of women. >> i should get the congressional medal of honor in actuality. >> donald trump considers avoiding stds, sexually- transmitted diseases, his own p

but donald trump's racist idiocy helps donald trump in one way last week. it helps reduce attention to more important stories like the one we were just talking about. the possible $10 million bribe that egypt may have paid donald trump when he ran for presidency in 2016. i will be covering that story later this hour. just as rachel did in the previous hour. because that is a much more important story than anything donald trump has said, and should not be overshadowed by trump idiocy. 49% of american voters now correctly believe that donald trump does not have the mental capacity to serve as president of the united states. the cbs poll released yesterday, 49% they donald trump does not have the mental and cognitive health to serve as president. go even donald trump knows he does not have the mental and cognitive health to debate kamala harris. which is why, in a move that, for him, was both wise and cowardly, he backed out of his promise to participate in a presidential debate scheduled by abc for september 10th. vice president harris responded saying i will

what youg saw was trump being trump. and so,mp first of all, that wa not really a press conference. it was this rambling stream of grievances, insults, fabrications, and gibberish, which we've now gotten for pretty much the last three weeks. and i agree with you, i don't see any indication that's going to change. you can see the campaign trying to make him talk about the economy like they did in north carolina, like they did today, andy he just can't bring himse. one other point, george conway posted a little while ago apart from being deranged, trump is an idiot. for a guy supposed to be a successful businessman his ignorance of basic economics is kind of jaw dropping, and that was on display as well. i'll be interested to hear the on the record or off-the-record reaction of republicans looking at him and going what are we going to do with this guy? we bowed a knee to him, we joined ourselves at the hip with him, do we really want to put this man back in the oval office? where's he taking us? i think it's prettyak clear by now. >> yeah, like his grasp of basic math and the fact it'

trump and elon musk having this conversation is trump rails against electric cars, and almost every rally, he has shawn fain will leave it there. thank you for joining tonight. >> hey, thank you very much. >> up next, trump is launching a new attack on vice president harris when it comes to immigration, questions about her past positions and how she handles that now that she's at the top of the ticket called the guard cologuard. >> cologuard screen for colon cancer at home. >> like you want either man cologuard is for people 45 plus at average risk, not high-risk, false positive and negative results may occur. ask your provider for cologuard my way as an investor in many small businesses i know how hard it is to acquire new customers using only social media, tv advertising works. >> but for years has been too expensive and was hard to measure. so i fixed it and created wonder ads powered by atari. wonder has makes tv advertising as simple as digital ad platforms you'll know what creative is working across all tv networks and streaming services with metrics like customer acquisition, cost

trump. and finally, for the first time this week, i thought people were wondering about the impact of mr. trump's age. he is 78. he hasn't been able to focus, make his case. is he, in another irony of 2024, turning into joe biden?" and the split screens have not been good for him at all this week, john. you look at the polls, and you can read these polls that are coming in. it is only august, but there certainly is momentum. but there's also, again, something that we haven't seen from donald trump since 2016, and that is just the complete failings of his political instincts to rise to a moment. >> well, i think you're seeing fear, joe. apart from everything else. playing off the last bit of sound there where he said, you know, he's letting the democratic convention go through, i wanted to announce right here on the show that i'm going to allow "morning joe" to continue for the rest of the morning in the same spirit as donald trump. you know, i have about as much control over that as donald t

his this normal in the trump campaign? >> it's the new normal in the trump era.e more investigative reporters in the fec not looking into this? it's embarrassing and if we can get over this trump. that's another institutional challenge ribbon after work to some reforms on but it's crazy what they're doing. jared kushner and laura trump and eric trump with their fingers on this group that is taken in like two thirds of the campaign money. people don't know where it's going. it's obviously going to legal bills to offset that. we don't know for sure but it seems very likely that is what they're doing. all kinds of weird stuff there spending money on, melania's stylist and so forth. i appreciate giuliana highlighted that. you would think at least there are a handful of non-cultists on the republican side that don't want to send 10, 15 or $20 of grandpa joe's money into a black hole for a baby like jared kushner to use on his whim. >> there are rules about what you can do with money when you give to campaigns. i think those rules matter. tim, brian, thank you very muc

trump did he take them from joe biden, didn't take them from donald trump know donald trump's team seem to think even then that there was likely some votes coming from their team. however, as kamala harris ascended to the top of the ticket, this became more urgent to get rfk to back donald trump because what they were noticing was that in swing states in particular all the votes or at least most of the votes were being drawn from donald trump. and that is something we heard kennedy say earlier today. he said he came to the realization that particularly in battleground states, he was taking from donald trump and not from democrats. and that was something that he didn't want to do. so this ago we saw him stage of this kind of almost crazy arrival that had fireworks music, and the crowd was cheering. it's clear he is popular among republicans, but how much is actually moves the needle seems unclear. here's what he said when he took the stage with donald trump the best way to build a safe america is to rebuild our industrial base and rebuild the middle class. and that's contrary don't you w

trump's running mate, senator j.d. vance responded to vice president harris's comments today suggesting it is somehow her fault that the soldiers died during the withdrawal from afghanistan. no, you are a member of the national guard and reserve. you are a congressman in virginia, where arlington is. what is your take on this incident? >> the rules are clear that you cannot use of the cemetery for partisan political purposes. this was explained to the trump campaign and they did it anyway like the rules don't apply to them. there are federal codes, processes at the cemetery and he just ignored the rules and did it anyway. then he used to the content for medical purposes. he just believes he's above the law. he disrespects the veterans, he disrespects the cemetery. this just, you know, nobody is surprised. >> now, another topic, the two campaigns are tussling over this weekend, is the upcoming debates. vice president harris today renewing her call to keep both candidates microphones on for the whole debate, claiming tru

okay, any attention trump catch, corey is going to say, trump is as b. o and see both just said that trump, the trump, i had this one, i worked with reagan and 84 and everybody tried to get him. you know, you have to change your way and on. thank god, dancer you came in and told the media, shut the hell up and told the region his advisor shut up, let him be himself. he went back to be and himself and they won the election. let trump be true. well, that's what people love and the finder, and that's it. and the while, i mean 5 seems to be aware of this, been key at the b and c this week. but you're right, prior to that it was steve, you know steve, we talked about the female element of this. your towing and conway has been really worried to be around the campaign. do you think she's waiting in the background to replace them and could she actually help forward this momentum that started somewhat slow? um, at least in the present, like she did in 2016 when they kind of pye towed to try to tell them where it is an absolute disaster. she's just done a deal to

trump campaign service. however, considering that most have just been working in the maggot inc, super pack and that quarterly and asking himself never stopped being an unofficial advisor to trump. this announcement seems almost like a given, even though it is drawing some heat fall on your shaky 2 weeks after the republican national convention and the advancement of comma harris and the addition of 10 walls. the democratic ticket has dominated the headlines which just a few weeks before covering the assassination attempts, the current age and the trump campaign had found themselves in a semi new position being criticized for some of the same reasons. the campaign used against fighting h. agility and sound of mind had become topics of many news outlets. but this time, instead of referring to the democratic front runner, it was aimed at the republican. could dispute by former president trump is bring some of the bench warmers back into the game? well, let us discuss with our panel. carter clues is present of

. >>> tonight the right-wing chorus begging trump to stop being trump. >> i commend the trump campaign, it is the candidate that is problematic. >>> plus, new data on a polling search for democrats with the ch director of battleground states for the harris-walz campaign. >>> then, a popular uprising in arizona for abortion access in november and open italy threatening american workers on the campaign trail. o >> you want to quit? go ahead, i won't mention the name on company. they go on strike, and it's okay, you are all gone. >>> the head of the auto workers union on new files against trump and elon musk. all in starts right now. >>> good evening from new york, i am chris hayes. they won't say that publicly, and they didn't think that three weeks ago when they were talking about winning new jersey, thinking about what jobs they would have in a second trump administration. a lot has changed since kamala harris replaced joe biden. trump is now losing the race he was pretty clearly winning before. let's not overstate things. trump is behind in the national polling average, he is behind i

vance -- let trump be trump. >> to the people who say that donald trump should do something different, they had an opportunity to make donald trump do something different by challenging him over three separate primaries, every single one of which he won. so i think that donald trump has earned the right to run the campaign that he wants to run. >> david: let's bring in rachel scott, with us again tonight. and tim walz says he's now ready to debate j.d. vance? >> reporter: exactly, david. tonight, we're learning that governor tim walz has accepted the invitation from cbs to debate senator j.d. vance on october 1st. vance has long said he's looking forward to that debate, but tonight, no word on whether or not he's accepting this invitation. and david, i don't need to remind you, but the very first presidential debate between vice president kamala harris and former president donald trump will take place right here on abc news on september 10th,

anya trump. i was told that she was really obviously shaken up by this and when you look back to that moment, it could have been even more tragic than it actually ended up. dean, i mean, just literally the movement of his head could have totally changed the course of things here, but they've talked about how they have they're rethiinin how they do rallies if they're going to hold things outdoors but it really did shift things for them. but at the same time, after the rnc, something that was talked about, then trump has really brought it up okay. >> alright. we'll see what happens. investigation. thank you guys so much for joining me and thank you for joining inside politics. cnn news central starts after a quick right? >> life diabetes there is no slowing down. each day is a unique blend of people to see and things to do that's why you choose new lucerne up to help manage blood sugar response uniquely designed with carbs, steady glue, sirna, bring on the day. >> luma phi. >> it's kind of amazing.

trump. >> here's the thing. a variety of reasons, and a lot of it has to do with the promises he made which he has not delivered on because they were false promises, and he betrayed a lot of people. he came in saying he would help working families. everyone from farmers to autoworkers. we are in iowa, there are farmers, a lot of farmers who are looking at bankruptcy because of his trade policy and he betrayed people and the american people are smarter than to go for all of the flash that he tweets all the time and look at the fact that not only on trade policy, but this tax bill that benefits the top 1% and the biggest corporations of america that this guy, he betrayed them, and i know that the american people are smarter than to go for the okeydoke. >> when we come back, rfk, jr., suspends his campaign and endorses trump. will it have an impact on the race? race? psoriasis all over. i couldn't get my hair done. then psoriatic arthritis. cosentyx works on both for me. people with psoriasis on the scalp have a 4

, this is trump. who was the person so in that conversation would be the person who has the employees. he responded to these charges today and said quote, the last two uaw presidents went to prison for bribery and corruption. and based on recent news, it looks like this guy will join them. of course, he is referencing an investigation, a monitor overseeing the union into you but i should note the last two uaw presidents who preceded you did not go to prison. it was too early or chiefs led the union in the late 22,000 tents that did serve time on corruption convictions. but i want to give you an opportunity to respond to that tweet from elon musk well, first off, it's just more of the same and i find it ironic. i mean, first off, i've obviously by most common, he doesn't know what he's talking about just like donald trump, they're all talk but secondly, i find that truly pathetic that elon musk, who is paying his lap dog, donald trump, $45 million a month to try to buy the election and he's got a perso

but, donald trump weapon i that.6th, he weapon i stood on the floor of the u.s. house. >> yeah, and this . this seems to me, that is the kind of crowbar he is trying to stick into the machine, right, to break it. and in georgia, democrats have sued georgia over this, which gives election officials authority to conduct a reasonable inquiry into elections before certification, require county election officials be given all certification documentation. how concerned are you about the georgia election board cases? >>, my job is to worry about everything, so i am concerned about everything. i will say that the democratic national committee and their lawyers have an excellent case, i think they are going to in that case, but i think it is also symptomatic of the times and challenges we are going to see if republicans launch from state to state, not just in georgia. >> and one of the things, too -- we saw this in wayne county, that is where a few trump loyalists first said they wouldn't certify the vote, then they backed do

how is trump going to have to deal with those people or? so here's the problem to trump this. so transactional, he's not guided by any kind of vision, philosophical, it'd be a logical. uh, so for example, yeah, he's going to try to withdraw from ukraine. this is the same guy that blew up the ins agreement. so really to kill the nuclear controlled with respect to enter media of nuclear weapons. and that's going to be back on the table from the center. and what russia is going to be doing is the kind of thing that sort of touches trump's hot buttons where this okay, we're going to build these, we're going to create a challenge and trumps natural instinct as well. oh no, you can, i could do it better and he's got to come back and then there's this real trump is emotionally more connected to the is riley project than by and that's going to be there is something that will tempt him to expand it because he falls into the we're going to the, the ron is responsible for what's going on in palestine. yeah. and so it's a divorce in from that. so the problem i have with, you know, much be

>> reporter: i just got off the phone with a source close to trump legal team.the coming days they are going to ask for more time to brief these case because of these new developments which they expected. that means this could push a trial date past the election, or if the judge agrees to have the trial soon, trump could appeal all the weight of the

donald trump and j.d.ng women and it does not matter what side of the aisle you are on. everywoman has experienced the mansplaining, the insults, the undermining. the underestimation of us and they see that in this campaign. the misogyny of maga is going to galvanize women in ways they are underestimating. women see and hear this and they are tired of it. >> so, doug, do you expect to see that maga misogyny on full display on september 10 when donald trump tries to go toe to toe with kamala harris? >> i think it will be toward the middle or toward the end. i don't think he can help himself. it will start out but once he gets off script -- look, donald trump gets more like himself every day. more like himself every minute and he will certainly do that i believe in the debate. it is exactly why kamala harris wanted hot microphones. let him run. we will see and i think tara had a really good point about the fact that people are seeing a decline in donald trump now because he used it as such a weapon against j

instead trump made things worse. when he was asked about republicans blasting harris as a dei higher, he did not double down. no, he created a new kind of racist truth is him on the fly. >> is that acceptable language to you and will you tell those republicans and those supporters to stop it? >> how do you define dei, go ahead? >> diversity, equity and inclusion. >> is that your definition? >> that is the definition of the word. >> give me a definition. >> sir i am asking you a question. >> define it for me if you will. >> i just defined it for you, sir. you believe vice president kamala harris was only on the ticket because she is a black woman? >> she was always of indian heritage. i did not know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black and now she wants to be known as black, so i don't know, is she indian or is she black? i respect either one, but she obviously doesn't. because she was indian all the way and all of a sudden she made a turn and she became a black person. i think som

trump has done one rally. one campaign stop. it was in montana and he's a couple of sit down interviews. only one of them was challenging. the others, a press conference in his home, a interview with you on last where he had some new funding over and, and fox news interview. these are not rigorous journalistic standards. he does need to rally his base, but i wouldn't call those in the uh, you know, some kind of like barbara walters or edward r murrow moment for the press. i think if we wait until after the convention, we'll get an interview and i think we'll get one that is actually substantive. okay, brian, let's talk about the other side of this conversation. the little musk side of the conversation, i'm ex said, but it got 1300000 views. i went and looked up how many view is joe biden's interview with a b. c. news. all 3 pulled out. got that. got a 1000000 views. so quite a lot more, you know, most schools, legacy media, all so this didn't start to on time. it was 14 minutes late. they're all sorts in the n

it _ trump. he is due to be speaking in around five minutes. it looks - trump.utes. it looks like the event has been delayed but we have seen people doing checks so stay with us here on bbc news. hello. over the last 24 hours, storm lillian has brought us weather that felt more like autumn than august. the storm has now cleared, but things do stay quite unsettled through this weekend. rather windy, not as windy as it has been, though. some heavy rain at times, but some spells of sunshine in between. there goes storm lillian. it has been clearing away rapidly northeastwards during today. we've been in a window of somewhat drier weather, albeit with some showers, but further frontal systems approaching from the southwest, most notably this one here, bringing cloud and heavy rain across southern england, clipping into the south midlands and southeast wales as we go through the night. cooler, fresher but still rather showery conditions further north and west. but here at least there should be some sunny spells to start saturday morning. not so across the southern co

a trump tax on gas. a trump tax on food. a trump tax on clothing. a trump tax on over-the-counter medication. >> reporter: tonight, the trump campaign firing back, bashing harris' economic plan as "extremely damaging" and a "massive expansion of government control." >> linsey: selina wang joins us now from morrisville, north carolina. north carolina, a key battleground state she's certainly hoping to capture in november? >> reporter: that's right, linsey. this is a state that donald trump won tries. harris is gaining ground in the polls and she's hoping to make a dent. barnstorming battleground pennsylvania with tim walz, trying to keep up the momentum all the way through the democratic national convention. >> linsey: selina, thanks so much. beginning monday in primetime, streaming on the "abc news live" at 7:00 p.m. eastern, and then here on the network at 10:00 p.m. monday night. >>> former president trump's comments about veterans are sparking a new controversy tonight after he said the presidential medal of freedom that's given to civilians is a

or help donald trump?edy human rights organization named after my father who died in 1968 and carries over as unfinished work for justice. why did bobby ran in the first place? i think we grew up in a family where people are engaged. and who and we had lots of arguments at the dinner table about what was right and what was wrong. and who's on what side. and i think bobby felt like he needed to take a stand. i think this, and i understand that. because the stakes this november, this november couldn't be higher which is exactly why my whole family will be fighting so hard to reelect kamala harris and coach walz who have been champions for the values my family has fought for for years. >> well, i mean, it begs the question take a stand just to read a couple of things. this is a statement you jointly put out with courtney, kerry, chris and rory's reaction. kennedy's reactions to this endorsement of trump. >> matt and joe have also signed on. >> i will also add them. we wanted america filled with hope and a sha

people like donald trump jr., the far right wing supporters of donald trump, those are people who are sort of celebrating the fact elon musk took over twitter and has turned it into this right-wing friendly site that brought back donald trump account and all these other recounts that had been banned for hate speech and other things so we are in a general election. there are 80 something odd days before the election day and it's clear that donald trump is trying to rally his base. he's not trying to reach out to his middle. some of the things he said during this live event were questioning climate change, questioning, harris's role as the first woman of color to be the head of the democratic ticket. so he is playing to the base. he's playing to those supporters that like him to go off script and defy his advisors and say things that he's not supposed to be saying, as he's been doing over the past couple of weeks since, harris joined this race. it's not clear that is going to be a winning strategy but that is the strategy he's taking at this point. >> we were expecting vp harris to lay

trump's campaign manager called the person who blocked trump's team, quote despicable today, trump shared a statement from the gold-star families of those killed in the so-called abbey gate attack in kabul, saying quote, we had given our approval for president trump's official videographer and photographer to attend the event, the cemetery issued a statement saying federal law prohibits political or election-related activities on its grounds, it is the final resting place and therefore it is hallowed and sacred ground people that go there reflect they. came time to their loved want. >> the trump camp payne says the former president was there simply to honor those killed. but this comes after several other controversies surrounding trump in the military. he recently said the presidential medal of freedom, given to civilians was much better than the medal of honor. >> everyone gets the congressional medal of honor. that's soldiers there are either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets, or they're dead. >> trump once said this about republican senator and former

vice president kamala harris making her case said the tariff trump donald trump is proposing will hurt the middle class. here's what she said specifically. >> he intends to enact what is a national sales tax, call it a trump tax that would raise prices on middle-class families by almost $4,000 a year. >> now the estimates vary, but how do you respond to that charge that trump's tariffs would hurt the middle class? >> if you step back a little bit, kristen, there's this whole thing that kamala harris did at the convention where she made claims about what would happen and not enough on what already happened. donald trump was already happened. he used tariffs to bring manufacturing jobs back to our country, and i think he'll do it again and did it while keeping prices, tremely low. we had trefl twoudz factuallies build during donald trump's presidency and inflation never ticked past 12% during his presidency. if we do what trump did it will be way worse than it was last time and i don't think that makes a lot of sense. >> let's talk about trump's first term. he did impose a round of tarif

>> look, trump's going to trump as we've talked about what the dr. phil interview, that that's what he does he tries to throw dust in the air to to cloud things up. but this comes with a political risk for him and it's because it goes to that chaos agent. and if you're, if you're one of those voters who you're just tired of chaos. this doesn't help trump reach those voters again, he can hit them with so many issues where the biden and harris administration you are underwater starts with the economy and prices. it goes to the border. there's a lot of areas for donald trump to be on offense and on the attack. this distraction that ultimately that's i think that's the issue. he's clearly not going to be in trial or convicted or anything like that between now and the election. so it's the conversation around that distracts as trump we can do himself sometimes from what could be a winning message for them. >> murray, i do have questions because both donald trump and kamala harris have had flip-flopped. it's become a thing that isn't a career killer anymor
