this was never the joe biden year. 1988 was a joe biden year. 1992 was a joe biden year. maybe 2008 was a joe biden year. it was never supposed to be now, and yet you never know when your moment comes. so you've got to say it's a remarkable journey. he's had an extraordinary career that suddenly now has gotten a little more extraordinary. >> all right, chuck, andrea, everybody stand by. we're just getting started. we've had the official business, joe biden is now officially the nominee of the democratic party. more speeches. we are awaiting speeches from john kerry, colin powell, two former secretaries of state and dr. jill biden just ahead. we'll take a quick break and are back after this. hey allergy muddlers... achoo! ...do your sneezes turn heads? try zyrtec... ...it starts working hard at hour one... and works twice as hard when you take it again the next day. zyrtec muddle no more. i'm looking for my client. i'mi'm so sorry.nt. hey! hey man, you're here! you don't trust me here in vegas, do you? uh, well, i thought we had a breakthrough with the volkswagen. we did,

his version of what joe biden said. jim insult our intelligence because again, he can't speak for me, he can't speak for black americans. and the other networks like msnbc, cnn, what are they doing? a disservice to black americans because the prerequisite to go on those shows, you have to be to the mentality. an end if he wants to interview black americans with different opinions can invite me, larry and we will tell her exactly how we feel that we want to move from this democratic mind-set of extremism and we want to vote for president trump! jim clyburn has no credibility. he attacks our great president by trying to make a did don't make derogatory comment about being mussolini and a text american soldiers by calling gestapo tactics. he is a dinosaur and he needs to retire yesterday. >> jason: i certainly think so. i have the greatest respect for him but those comments are just so outrageous. but larry, these comments that i hear and especially from joe biden are so patronizing. how did they strike you? >> a course th

the joe biden was, at least. i don't know if he will be who we as if elected president, but this video was very powerful, voiced first by cindy mccain, the wife of the late senator john mccain. the relationship was very close. they traveled around the world together. and they dealt with foreign policy issues. and negotiations on different items when he was best president and also senator before that. but this is joe biden and the biden camp i think is trying to use the 47 years of washington as an asset, not a liability. i think next week you will see the trump administration in the trump campaign say he is a creature of the swamp. he is just a vessel for whatever it is going to be, the left. >> shannon: yeah, and on fox for former president clinton speaking tonight, he has been in and out of favor with the party and issues that he has had to deal with personally. but tonight they said, they want him on the stage and he was there. stayed to listen, this is his 11th consecutive convention speaking to an bill clint

we know a lot about joe biden and what this pick tells us about joe biden. and it tells us that he is willing to bridge a demographic gap. he does want to unite the democratic party. and, quite frankly, one of the things that my sources were telling me that one of his concerns was in picking someone was not only loyalty, do no harm and all the rest of it, was that he wanted a woman who he thought would be tough enough to take what donald trump and his campaign would be throwing at her. and if you look at kamala harris, she's tough, and she's been tough. and, in fact, she unleashed it, i don't want to overdo this, but she unleashed it on joe biden. and one of his advisers said this shows you that he's nothing like trump. because if someone had done that to trump, he would have forgotten them forever. biden said, you know what, okay, she did that, and she's tough. that is what he is looking for. don't forget, biden is mr. empathy in this campaign. you heard him talk about his son beau. even in announcing the pick of kamala harris. kamala harris is a tough-as-n

joe biden. >> joe called it. we are in a battle for the soul of our nation. >> but joe knows we can never let hard times turn us against each other. >> and we can never stop doing the hard work to make things right. >> that's why we ran for office. >> that's why we ran for office. >> even when people counted us out. >> even when there had never been a latina in the nevada state senate. >> or a democrat elected as florida commissioner of agriculture in nearly three decades. >> or an openly gay man in the georgia state legislature. >> when birmingham hadn't had a mayor this young in 120 years. >> reran for office because we know the struggles american families are facing because we've lived them. >> we've lived the insecurity and the indignity of an eviction notice. >> i, like many of you, have lived the frustration of paying off student loans. we have lived the grief of losing loved ones to gun violence and the criminal justice system that unfairly targets our communities. >> we have lived that f

joe biden has been in michigan. a state he has to win. i am glad you are saying that about law enforcement. it breaks my heart to see what's happened. first it was seattle, portland, minneapolis, chicago. and new york. but why is no one talking about the fact that you don't see republicans protesting and picketing their convention. why is it it only goes one way. the democratic party makes republicans to be such terrible people that aren't sensitive and cling to their guns. they say they are violent people because they enjoy a second amendment. why don't you see republicans in delaware intimidating people as they are leaving that convention hall? it's rather remarkable. now he's behind be law enforcement. yet he single police union in this country -- and they don't typically endorse people. they have all come out in support of my father. in wisconsin one of the big police unions endorsed my father and i accepted it on his behalf. they put on the handcuffs. these men and women are the greatest people we have in this

this is joe biden's third run for president. the first two attempts ended in embarrassing disasters. the third was headed at high speed in that direction and then a series of unforeseen flukes in a highly crowded primary field. the last in the race. he was clearly shocked by his own victory. on election night, the night he clinched the nomination in march,h, biden was so rattled he mistook his sister for his wife during the acceptance speech. at the time, joe biden's relative unpopularity seemed like aro major problem for democrats. this is politics, after all. people who tend to have the most support tend to win. so if you're choosing a presidential nominee, you think you'd want someone with built-in constituency, a base of passionate voters you can count on election day. as it turns out, that's the last thing leaders of the modern democratic party wanted. they already had a candidate like that and his name was bernie sanders. they did everything they could to stop him. no. what they wanted instead was someone they could contro

to run as joe biden's vice president. we didn't see it coming. just last night on the show we told you susan rice will likely to get the job. rice is a hardened partisan but she's not stupid. more to the point, rice's sincere beliefs whether you like them or not. kamala harris is the opposite of that. harris may be the single most transactional human being in america. there are time-share salesmen you would trust more than kamala harris. you could find payday lenders who are more sincere. so it seemed inconceivable that given his current state, joe biden to someone so transparently one-dimensional as kamala harris. someone is he is. it would be the first entirely hollow presidential ticket in american history and we thought it would never happen. but they are doing it anyway. biden-harris, that's what they are going with. the choice tells you a lot about the current state of the democratic party. america is still technically a democracy yet either biden nor harris has ever been popular with actual voters. this is joe bide

when the choice came down to joe biden, i know what joe biden has done in the past. some things i agree with, some things i don't, but i think he is the one -- he does understand what a leader's role is, and i think he can fit in that role. host: what did you make of his vice presidential choice? in a strongs supporter of kamala harris. wasn't have preferred -- i would have preferred val demings, maybe amy klobuchar. i understand why he selected her and i think the two of them will do a job. they will bring the change we need. alabaster, in alabama, supporter of president trump. caller: how are you? host: i am well. thanks for asking. caller: i didn't watch all of it , i watched a good portion of it, and i still have not heard their agenda even though we heard little snippets of it from bernie sanders. i am sure joe biden is a very likable guy, but what they are going to do is they are going to have the government take over all the jails, all of our health care. the government is going to take care of everything, free school tuition. it is not free, though. itthe tax

and for joe biden next president. all the conversation using the # the nc political. let's get started. >> thanks for having me. >> you joined the campaign in may but let's jump back to the primaries. the biden campaign developed a bit of a reputation and then the pandemic hit and then there are famous videos of biden. at the time, there was unsolicited advice about the improvement. what did the campaign learn? >> the biden campaign became the presumptive nominee, there were a lot of challenges with the pandemic happening around that time, this was something i was experiencing at the same time before i joined the campaign. there's much less about what they were and work doing and more about everyone figuring out how to do fully online and virtual. when i came on board, beginning of may, i met around 20, 25 very talented, very tired digital staffers, i started working with the digital director for the biden campaign and he was more than ready to hire. from there, we started building a plan, where are the areas we want

that wasn't woke joe biden. that was joe biden talking about how he's going to be an american president working as hard for people who voted against him as he will for people who vote for him. it's not necessarily a message that traditionally one would think would be of this era. although, abbey, i have to say it's possible that that will be enough to get moderate voters and the fact he's not trump will be enough to get progressive voters. but i don't know. what do you think? >> you're absolutely right. that is joe biden. what you see it is what you get. he has been that kind of politician really since the beginning even going back -- if you go back to his first presidential run he is running essentially as a sort of middle of the road type of candidate and somebody who as you saw in his remarks but also in the videos that preceded it, his calling card is being able to bring people together from across the aisle. so that is how he is running, and i'll tell you there has been a lot of push back on that. you know,

joe biden did that thing tonight. unbelievable. >> what struck me was that he didn't look like a guy who was reading a speech. >> he did seem to answer the charges that have been come from the trump campaign that suggest he's not up to the job mentally. >> he didn't stumble. >> biden made out through. you know, expectations were low, set low by everyone. gregg: we're going to be taking it up next with trump campaign communications director tim murtaugh. and lou's new book, you've got to get it, "the trump century: how our president changed the course of history forever," available for preorder. get your copies at thetrumpcentury.com, amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ hold on one second... sure. okay... okay! safe drivers save 40%!!! guys! guys! check it out. safe drivers save 40%!!! safe drivers save 40%! safe drivers save 40%!!! that's safe drivers save 40%. it is, that's safe drivers save 40%. - he's right there. - it's him! he's here. he's right here. - hi! - hi. hey! - that's totally

it's joe biden. i think back to 1992 when bill clinton ran and won on the idea of new democratic cent richly. 2,000 when barack obama ran on the hope for change. we have not heard a compelling argument for joe biden why he should be president. not a big idea. not a reason for his presidency. it seems to me that's at stake tonight. that's what is at stake in joe biden's speech. not why donald trump should not be president but why joe biden should. >> martha: that's a great point. that's the moment. that's what you need to pull people over who may be undecided in this race. that uplifting, come with me and here is why moment. i think the opportunity presents itself tonight. >> i agree he needs to make a case for himself. following up on the case made by his wife the other night. if you do a speech to layout all of the items in your agenda and when programs you will try to put into effect, they don't inspire much. they may touch different element. you don't want it to sound like a state of the union add

biden and now kamala harris as joe biden's running mate. she is expected to be sort of formally introduced tomorrow on wednesday. that is coming from the campaign. i want to bring in the executive director of the new york state democratic party and a former eight two hillary clinton to get his perspective on what kamala brings to this ticket and whether this moves the needle for joe biden to gain any votes beyond what we were expecting so far. >> thank you for having me. i am very excited about this pick. i think, for so many african-americans who were really hoping that joe biden would choose an african-american woman to add to the ticket, this is an incredible enthusiasm boost. that is how i would begin to answer your question. you had rick on earlier talking about filling in gaps i definitely think that you can with energyoe biden and enthusiasm on the campaign trail. ,he is incredibly bright intelligent, and clearly is fearless. she went after him in that debate. a polling andn enthusiasm gap between him and his supporters, this is an e

biden. >> joe called it. we are in the battle for the soul of our nation. >> joe knows we can never let hard times turn us against each other. >> we can never stop doing hard work to make things right. >> that is why we ran for office. >> even when people counted us out. >> even when there had never been a latina in the nevada state senate. >> or democrat elected to the florida commission about work culture. >> when birmingham hadn't had a mayor this young in 120 years. >> we ran for office because we know the struggles american families are facing. because we have lived them. >> we have lived the insecurity, the indignity of an eviction notice. bux like many of you, i have lived the frustration of paying off student loans. >> we have lived the grief of losing loved ones to gun violence and the criminal justice system that unfairly targets our communities. >> we have lived the feeling of helplessness on someone you love is very sick and health care is a matter of life and death. >> joe biden has lived a lot o

joe biden. these are the people who lost out to him, gathering to say, with maybe slightly strained smiles, what a great guy he is.> nd all of us, whether you're progressives, moderates or conservatives, have got togeome er to defeat this president. reporter: and that's been a driving force of democratic strategists at this convex, presenting joe biden as empathetic, decentnd yes, a counterpoint to donald trump. >> if you entrust me with the, presiden will draw on the best of us, not the worst. i'll be an ally of the light, not the darkness. it's time for us, for we the people, to come togher. and make no mistake. uned we can and will overcome this season of darknessn america. reporter: this wasn't aec policy-heavy s but clear differences on the environment, the economy immigration and how toheal wit the covid outbreak were apparent. his first tilt at becoming ater presidential candidate, joe biden could finally say these words. >> it was with great honor and humility, i accept this nomination f

there are folks who are against joe biden and i don't think joe biden is concerned about people who are against him. i think the democrat party is focused on who they can get to the polls, opposed to begging those who are not coming out, no way in hell. you're either riding with biden or you're not. a lot of folks may stay home. obviously people will be voting for president trump. i think this season is a real clear line, either you're for it or against it. it's quite clear. we only have 83 days left. i think at this point most folks have figured it out. i don't think there's a lot of folks who were wavering one way or the other. but kamala harris will bring new voters to the table who are excited about her possibly historic win that joe biden just maybe can't motivate. todd: that bambi comment will resonate in my mind for the next 83 days. thank you, tezlyn. >> thank you. jillian: president trump doubling down on his promise to send federal backup to american cities under siege. todd: seattle's top cop said she will step down over the lack of respect for police. marianne rafferty is li

joe biden for president. america's progressive promise pac is responsible for the content of this a. >>> tonight's democratic convention will be pointed and personal. and there will be appearances by senator bernie sanders and congresswomanlexandria oh g ocasio-cortez. >> reporter: under current of conversations we're hearing when we are talking to democrats really across the country who are tuning into this, yes, it the democratic national convention but progressives wonder why the former republicans and moderates having such prominent roles here particularly that is going to come into sharp focus with alexandria ocasio-corteocasio-c. she'll have one minute to speak. i'm told her address was recorded last week and it will be supporting the idea of electing joe biden, even though she's not endorsed him per se raises the question, why so many moderates. the biden campaign is trying to go after women and moderates, people who voted for joe biden in 2008 and 2012 with obama. the idea they left the party in 2016

is joe biden enough to get them vote? >> there's no question that the gen z was more excited about a bernie sanders who they deem to be more progressive, but i believe gen z are more anti- trump than they may be for joe biden, but they are slated to go in this election more than the previous election. while joe biden and kamala harris may not give them the excitement the progressives do, they realize how important it is to get trump out and i think i will be enough for them to get in there and vote for the biden harris ticket. jillian: isabel, i think a lot of voters in general will be excited to get out and vote. i don't know that it's necessarily just one side. what to do you think? >> absolutely. something that unfortunately has them and covered much is the fact that gen z is poised to become the most conservative generation in the us history since world war ii and countless studies have proven that to be true. we have grown up with an error generation with countless instances of chaos since 911 to covid-19 so therefor

he praises joe biden big time. but what else the former president of the united states has to say in his remarks, i think will be very, very powerful. >> it will, and it was about four years ago. that then president obama, he was speaking at the congressional black caucus gala for the last time as president. he told the largely black audience that he would consider it a personal insult if black americans didn't turn out to vote for hillary clinton. he said, you want to secure my legacy, go vote for hillary clinton, we need big numbers of black voters. guess what, the black community did not turn out for hillary clinton the way that obama and hillary clinton wanted them to. and i think that that stung barack obama. that bothered him a lot. not just the black community obviously, the election of trump. that's a big thing that i'm going to be looking for tonight. how was he going to respond to the fact that donald trump's election is in many ways a rebuke of him. >> that's true. speaking of a rebuke of somebody. this

joe biden's empathy is genuine. you can feel it. that's why president obama asked joe to head up the cancer moon shot. president obama knows what we all know -- joe biden understands suffering and loss and sacrifice. mayor pete buttigieg also knows something about sacrifice. he volunteered and was deployed to afghanistan, then returned home to indiana to become a highly effective public servant. say hi to mayor pete. >> good evening. beau bide n lived a life of service in office and uniform. when you put your life on the line for this country, you do it not because it's the country you live in, but because it's a country you believe in. i believe in this country. because america, uniquely, holds the promise of a place where everyone can belong. we know that for too many and for too long, that promise has been denied. but we also know when america is at its best when we make that circle of belonging wider. just over ten years ago, i joined the military where firing me because of who i am wasn't just possible, it was policy. now in 20

i have known joe biden for almost 40 years. he is a friend of my dad's, my sister worked for him, my family has known his family and he has been personally, to me, a great friend and mentor. he has decency and integrity and every thing he does, he does with a singular passion to make the lives of those around him better. he has been tested, personally and professionally. he has confronted devastating loss, finding purpose in the darkness and inspiring others along the way to do so as well. and i can speak from experience because when my husband unexpectedly passed away at the age of 52, it was joe biden who found me in a hospital and called me to let me know that things were going to be ok and that i too could serve one day. joe believes in the power of the american spirit, the power to overcome anything and everything . and as he often says, the american people have never, ever let us down and they never will. we are in difficult, dark times. but with joe biden leading us, we will conquer any challenge. when i gave my remarks

they look where joe biden's. joe biden with serious clarifications for his outrageous remarks yesterday. he is in his basement and has a lifetime of failed policies that have lost jobs, if you think of his failed trade policies that have affected the military. so yes, the media will cover it but voters are on the policies and results and certainly in my district, joe biden has been holding low and president trump is polling higher than he ever has before. my district of bellwether, to vote to elect whoever becomes the president. >> harris: that is really interesting too. and i am of course my audience knows about the battles to protect those in nursing homes very early in the covid-19 pandemic, as you were taking on the governor to make sure that they were getting it right instead of putting people in harm's way in nursing homes. i just wanted to throw that in. i want to get to this because you mentioned it, women getting elected to congress right now fewer than 25% of lawmakers in the house and senate are female

you know what joe biden will do. filled back better. -- build back better. >> that was bill clinton speaking at the democratic national convention about leadership, particularly in the oval office. that is the theme tonight, leadership, but national security and foreign policy could be added. i spoke to jeh johnson earlier today about the qualities america's next commander-in-chief will need to meet the coming challenges over the next four years. >> experience teaches, history teaches that one could never fully know what is awaiting you in your inbox when you take office on january 20, and george bush 43, for example, could not have known on january 20, 2001, that he was going to be grappling with 9/11 and the aftermath nine months later. but obviously in terms of security issues, covid, i fully expect we will still be wrestling with covid, the pandemic, by january. longer-term challenges, global warming, the threats represented by china, russia, iran, specifically the cyber security threats, od yanai put out stateme

that is joe biden. >> joe called it. we are in the battle for the soul of our nation. >> joe knows we can never let hard times turn us against each other. >> we can never stop doing hard work to make things right. >> that is why we ran for office. >> even when people counted us out. >> even when there had never been a latina in the nevada state senate. >> or democrat elected to the florida commission about work culture. >> when birmingham hadn't had a mayor this young in 120 years. >> we ran for office because we know the struggles american families are facing. because we have lived them. >> we have lived the insecurity, the indignity of an eviction notice. bux like many of you, i have lived the frustration of paying off student loans. >> we have lived the grief of losing loved ones to gun violence and the criminal justice system that unfairly targets our communities. >> we have lived the feeling of helplessness on someone you love is very sick and health care is a matter of life and death. >> joe biden

and that's what separates him from people like joe biden. joe biden just happens to be the nominee. there are a lot of other really good people that are in this country, and some of them are not democrats. but in this particular instance, this president seemed to feel that irrespective of what may be going on around him, it's always got to be about him and not the other person. i think that the country has seen this week watching this convention, they have seen the goodness in this man. and i believe that that's why he is going to be a very successful candidate and he will be sworn into the presidency come january because it's time to restore goodness in the office of the president and decency and respect around the world. we have been held out as a beacon for years, decades. here we are now being laughed at by the powers surrounding because our allies don't know how to trust us. we have to restore dignity, respect and goodness in the office of the president, and i think that's what we get with joe biden. >> congressman clyburn, i appreciate your time as always, sir. thank you. >> t

let's listen in. >> we trust joe biden. joe provides the leadership necessary to bring us back from this awful pandemic. joe has a plan to attack global climate change once and for all. and joe will restore honesty, decency, and trust to the white house, reunite all americans, and build a better future for all. the great state of new hampshire awards nine delegates to our friend and neighbor, bernie sanders, and 24 delegates to the next president of the united states, joe biden. >> new jersey, we've been hit hard by covid. >> o'donnell: earlier, there was a nod to senator bernie sanders who finished second in the nominating process. he earned more an 1,000 delegates during those bitterly contested primaries. congresswoman sharyn alfonsicona ocasio-cortez. >> at a time when millions of people in the united states are looking for deep, systemic solutions to our crisis of mass evictions, unemployment, and lollot pl i herebye, and ou second the nomination of senator bernard sanders of vermont for president of the united states

what joe biden didn't talk about. he didn't talk about law enforcement. he didn't talk about bringing safety to democrat run the cities that are totally out of control and have no clue. china was never mentioned in any way, shape, or form. china will own our country if he gets elected, they will own our country. and were not going to let that happen. >> tammy: what a difference in attitude. biden was so short on details because the radical democratic agenda is downright frightening. as former governor chris christie remarked, it scares that the bejesus out of people. >> you didn't hear any specifics and the reason for that is his specifics would scare the bejesus out of america and he knows it. it's a crazy left wing liberal agenda that he has been captive of now and he gave into an order to get the nomination and he will pursue a few selected. >> tammy: joining us now with reaction as american conservative union chairman matt schlapp and fox news contributor charlie hurt. thank you so much for joining me tonight. it

and then he met joe biden, and joe biden has stayed in touch with him. let's listen. >> it was really amazing to hear that someone like me became vice president. he told me about a book of poems by yates, he would read out loud to practice. he showed me how he marked his addresses to make them easier to say out loud, so i did the same thing today. and now i'm here talking to you today about the future. about our future. my family often says when the world feels better, before talking about something normal, like going to the movies. we all want the world to feel better. we need the world to feel better. i'm just a regular kid, and in the short amount of time, joe biden made moving forward comfort. joe biden cared. imagine what he could do for all of us. kids like me are counting on you to elect someone we can all look up to, someone who cares, someone who will make our country and the world feel better. we're counting on you to elect joe biden. >> o'donnell: and that's brayden harrington, who is now being tutored by joe biden, who has stuttered with-- wh

give us time across a candidate for president joe biden's.

joe biden. you can think of this sort of like survivor on the out interviews of everybody who got voted off the island. bernie, don't you laugh, i have questions for you like why did my girlfriend like you more than she likes me? >> because i am smarter than you, that is the obvious answer. senator sanders and klobuchar, you actually served with joe biden in the senate. i'm wondering if you have any memories of what he was like as a colleague in the senate? >> i remember one night when i was given one of those floor speeches -- giving one of those floor speeches. no one was watching. i was alone and i gave my speech to a complete empty chamber. i walked out of there and i said i wonder if i was -- if my mom was even watching this on c-span. at that moment, the cell phone rings and i thought my mom was watching on c-span. do you know who it was? joe biden. that goes to not only his kindest for calling me and being a mentor but it goes to how much he cares about our government and what people were

the american people know joe biden and joe biden is no socialist. in fact joe biden's struggle is with the far left of the democratic party, the young far left voters who really have not embraced him as their own. this is the biden who lacked an economic recovery for president obama that was criticized as corporate socialism, kennedy. that's not a socialist. that someone boosting the american economy and subjecting himself to criticism of too big to fail in order to get the job done. this is the joe biden of the crime though. isn't that a socialist? this is the joe biden. >> kennedy: that's authoritarian. >> juan: no, i think what you've got here is that the trump campaign is using the playbook they had laid out to run against bernie sanders. guess what. this is not bernie sanders, folks. this is joe biden. they are struggling big time. >> kennedy: i understand but bernie sanders did get an awful lot jammed into that dnc platform. jesse, take it away. >> jesse: the republicans didn't say joe and bernie are the same. barack obama said it. >> juan: fr

cross talking joe biden i'm joined by my guest jane kearns in new york she is a g.o.p. strategist contributor to the daily caller as well as founder of women for a great america in washington we have jason. he's a democratic political strategist also in washington we cross to walter some a lot of he is a answer coalition organizer rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate jan let me go to you 1st i mean i said in my introduction here i mean you know you have you have a lot of gaffes coming from joe biden and he's been known for it ok it's not you know all of a sudden but the intensity of them are is mounting and that maybe just because of the media's watching more closely i'm trying to be really fair here but we i think we have every right to know about the mental facilities the capabilities of someone that is running for the highest office in the land i mean how do you come out on this go ahead john. well i agree i said last tuesday on super tuesday that the good news was for joe biden he won the primaries and i also said at th

is that joe biden is very strong candidate. you seen him out there pretty saw him outside we will see him today and defeat donald trump. i would just break with everything that you sort of oncharacterized . but i do thin, you bring up some points that are what trump is trying to bench . that the mail in ballots are going to work . thank you so deeply disappointed because i think joe biden mike say, were going to be like a drum. host: we convinces you that joe biden is up for the task. bradley: only seen again jillian debates. obviously he won a very competitive primary with a field of very strong candidates . and simply pandemic, y'all act like since march, there's no campaign beforehand. this just that the case for joe biden has been out there, his strongest attributes are that he nhas experienced and compassionate leadership and people want normalcy. ornothing that we are in at this moment in an economic procession in a pandemic feels normal. and joe biden is going provide the vision and the leadership and i think that's wher

and joe biden says "not competition." mate wasew running one of only 10 senators to vote against the usmca. here, the workers of wisconsin deserve better, american workers deserve better. reject ay we will liberal trade agenda of joe biden and kamala harris, and we are going to reelect president donald trump for four more years. [applause] chanting "four more years"] back when i was governor of the hoosier state, i remember when joe biden and barack obama were in the white house. the bestlways told things for manufacturing was in that?st, riveremember they called our part of the country the rust belt. under joe biden and barack obama, america lost 200,000 manufacturing jobs. i will never forget the summer of that campaign in 2016, president obama said those jobs will never be coming back. he said, "what magic wand do you have?" well, we didn't need a magic wand to knock the rust off the rust belt, we just needed president donald trump in the white house. jobs00 manufacturing created in just three years. good 39,000 manufa

i was thinking in 2008 springfield, illinois, the obama/joe biden moment when joe biden runs out on the stage when it's announced that he will be barack obama's vice president. the thing about these tickets is you do have these moments where they are together and you want to see the story of this candidacy. and dana talked about leadership and showing confidence and showing chemistry. but then really they go their separate ways. the vice president kind of force multipliers to go places, maybe the top person can't go. so they'll go their separate ways, talk to different people in different ways. but, yeah, i mean, this is like something we've never seen before. and they are going to have to kind of make it up as they go along. the big moments will be next week with these speeches. and then for kamala harris, the next moment of course will be the debate that she will have with vice president pence. >> of course. and, david, as we report out what led to this pick, sources are telling cnn that biden chose harris because she was a common sense pick. she was seen as someone who would do no ha

joe biden, four-decade washington insider. donald trump would be tougher on china than joe biden. crime on the streets. that's something they continually lean into. any of those where you think the vice president is vulnerable? >> well, first of all, john, he may not campaign in the fall. health, safety, number one issue. so we've got to determine where we are with the covid crisis. i think several months ago, if you said joe biden wouldn't go to the convention, wouldn't speak at the convention, oh, that can't happen. we actually had a great convention and real people got to talk about real issues and it worked out. so we'll see where we are in the covid crisis. i think next week for the republicans, it's -- they're going to have a hatefest on joe biden. i think that's very hard for them after what you just saw the last four days, the compassion, the empathy, you saw the story, which you showed earlier of brayden. you saw estella talk about her mother be deported and kristen talk about her father who died because trump did not do what he needed to do in the covid crisis. so four d

that is joe biden. the biden's entire family business if you will for the last decade whether it be his brother his son is close to power and being able to benefit monetarily from that power in china's just the beginning. we know about burisma and we are finding more about them. china is a winning issue especially in the industrial midwest. when those plans went overseas the biden family got rich and they said nice things about the country that i'm put this virus at one our country. steve: lease if you take that and added together with what we have been saying in revealing about kamala harris and the machine politicians. you put that together that's a powerful drain the swamp kind of argument raised just as it was in 2016, don't you think? >> 100% and i think joe biden tries to act like he is this nice guy and that's how he receives -- how he is perceived by the media. i'll give you two examples about the clear profits of the vice president that he didn't care because it didn't impact him and his son wa

i completely can embrace joe biden and kamala harris. and i think that if you look over the course of the four days, you really did see the of theand the breadth democratic party, the diversity of the party, not just in race and the but in gender, age. across the board. i think that is reflective of who the democratic party is. add to that the sprinkle of republicans who are also supporting this candidacy. it shows the breadth and depth of the united states of america. >> last night, our colleague, joy reed, had an interesting take on who joe biden was talking to an his acceptance speech. she said he thought he was talking directly to white working-class voters. talking to them about why he is ok. why he is a viable option for them to either come home to or to turn away from president trump. what do you make of that? what you think joe biden was talking to? he wasink she hopes that listening. there was a today show interview with greg melvin this week where he talked to an unemployed steelworker. there is no chance of ohio flipping to jo
