kirsten? >> i mean, yeah, there's no question that his base still loves him. i don't think there's any question that those people will turn out. i think another difference is that the, you know, biden is ahead by more, i think, than hillary was, and it's just -- >> yes. >> -- it's a more consistent and steady lead than we saw with hillary. but i -- >> and also -- also, kirsten, i mean, you know, with all due respect, joe biden is not hillary clinton. joe biden is this, you know, pretty much universally liked guy by -- by democrats, right, and -- >> well, yeah, he hasn't been demonized for 25 years. the way hillary was. >> so then what -- do you buy into this, kirsten, this whole hidden trump voter thing that -- that people talk about? because a hidden trump voter that doesn't necessarily -- that don't necessarily talk to pollsters or say who they're going to vote for and they're not being picked up in polls. >> i mean, anything's possible. i think, you know, if democrats shouldn't take anything for granted. i think that, you know, people have to turn out to vo

kirsten, i want you to take a look. this is the closing arguments we heard from trump and biden on the coronavirus pandemic. >> more than 215,000 -- i think it's now 217,000 dead americans because of covid-19. and experts say we'll lose nearly 200,000 more lives, in the next few months. all, because this president cares more about his park-avenue perspective on the world and the stock market, than he does about you. because he refuses to follow the science. >> the light at the end of the tunnel is near. we are rounding the turn. we're rounding that turn. don't listen to the cynics and angry partisans and professional pessimists. >> so, kirsten, polar opposites on a life-or-death issue. is this what the election comes down to, now? >> well, i think, for a lot of the people who -- that biden is trying to reach, and that trump seems to be ignoring, it is what it comes down to. i mean, what i think is making a lot of -- certainly, the republican, suburban women think about crossing over to joe biden. what is swinging a lot

. >> kirsten, coronavirus cases are at a record high in the u.s. it's as if president trump has two opponents right now, joe biden and himself with way he's handled the virus. no? am i wrong about that? >> yeah, i think the coronavirus is obviously something that has impacted this race. i guess we'll never really know what happened had the pandemic not happened, but we've seen since the pandemic started and really got out of control, we've seen voters moving from trump, in particular seniors who are very important to his election the last time around, and a lot of them are citing concerns about how the pandemic has been handled. so i think that. >>> you know, he has kind of doubled down on this strategy of painting america as this kind of -- it's going to turn into this apocalyptic, communist, antifa kind of rioting place if joe biden takes over. we'll see if the strategy works, but that seems to be where he is. >> i want to you weigh in here, mike. as i said, you're in florida. florida is crucial to the president's path of 270. i have been speakin

now i want to bring in cnn senior political analyst kirsten powers. good evening. kirsten, you first. a lot can happen and you know this, right? a lot can happen in 13 days. this is what the former president said about that today. >> we can't be complacent. i don't care about the polls. there were a whole bunch of polls last time, didn't work out, because a whole bunch of folks stayed at home and got lazy and complacent, not this time, not in this election. >> so, do you see this race tightening, kirsten? >> yeah, yes. i think, you know, when you look at the people who study the polls and you talk to them, they are very confident that joe biden's in a very strong position. but, you know, the president -- former president obama is exactly right. people can't look at those polls and just think that the person that they think is going to win is going to win because of what the polls say. the polls can be wrong. the polls also can reflect the fact that some people who said they were going to vote decide not to vote because they think that the person they want not to wi

." >> reporter: madison, jackie, kirsten and stephanie were her college roommates. she had a goofy streak to her? >> oh, yeah. >> the goofiest. >> yeah, yeah. she was hilarious. >> she was just silly. she was just always laughing and always making us laugh. >> reporter: to earn some extra cash, reagan applied for a job at this popular columbus restaurant called bodega. kirsten and stephanie worked there too. >> she's like, "i need another job. do you know anything?" and i'm like, "come work at bodega." >> reporter: by february 2017, reagan was just months away from graduation. she made a difficult decision. she and her college boyfriend broke up. >> she was so heartbroken that week. >> they both really cared about each other. so it was hard. but i think it was what was best for both of them. >> reporter: days later, on february 8th, she headed off for an evening shift at bodega. >> it was just like a normal -- i was just like, "okay, bye." like, "have fun," or, "i'll see you later." >> reporter: like you had a million times before. >> exactly. >> reporter: reagan's

i think in terms of what kirsten said, you know, the way he framed it was almost chauvini chauvinistic. but those suburban women left president trump in 2018 because of his character, because of the way he talks, the way he acts, not because of his policies. there is a point in 2018 that yes, they were upside down on his favorability but still gave him a 60% rating on the economy. they now are upside down even on that measurement. the only thing he had to get at those women, and he's using it in a way, it sounds like he's not talking about them but their husbands. >> yeah. i mean, we talk about the economy again, just one of the most basic and fundamental things about this coronavirus economic crisis has been the disproportionate impact it's had on working women. abby, on the economy, you know, as ed gave those numbers, joe biden was in jordan expanding the map, win georgia for the first time sense 1992. it was president obama thin florida where he talked about the economy and tried to turn that around in favor of biden. more's obama. >> president trump likes to claim he built this eco

don't listen to the cynics and angry partisans and professional pessimists. >> so kirsten, is this what the election comes down to now? >> it is what it comes down to and what i think is making a lot of certainly republican suburban women think about crossing over to joe biden of what's swinging a lot of seniors who were previously with donald trump over to biden's side is the coronavirus, the pandemic. the president is still just talking to his base. he's obviously talking to his base and those words carry further than that. people know what's happening. the people who are in his base following him along with this fanciful story when everybody can see clearly we are not. this is not reality that the president is presenting and what biden is hitting on is what people are worried about. >> max, i want to talk about some of jake tapper's new reportin reportin reporting. john kelly, kelly said about this about trump. "the depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. he's the most flawed person i have ever met in my life." any administration would be astounding to hear something like

forget the public health message which is also dead wrong, pun intended on dead wrong, and kirsten, it just strikes me if we're at 70,000 cases on friday, we're averaging 56,000 cases, by november 3rd, we could be to 80,000 cases a day, and i just don't know, tell me if i'm wrong here, what else will matter by november 3rd if we have that many cases of coronavirus in the country? >> well, i think donald trump always has focused primarily on his very core supporters, right, the people who show up to the rallies, and so he lives in a bit of an alternative universe, where covid isn't the biggest problem in the world, and in fact, it's something that the media is exaggerating, and that people are using to harm donald trump. facts be damned, reality be damned. he really can provide an alternate reality. i think he continues to focus on that and believe he focused on that, he focused on that last time and this time that will work for him and he must have made a decision to not believe the polls, because there's obviously people who have moved away from him, like seniors for example who were

. >> "outfront" now michael smerconish and kirsten powers. so michael, 2 1/2 weeks from the election. is this the message that's going to drive turnout for biden? >> it's a closing argument. to me, it's as if the evidence is in and you want to provide the jury with a unifying theme before you send them off to deliberate. i think it's the message that someone who believes that he's comfortable ahead delivers, do no harm, spark no controversy, ride this thing out because you think you're in a very secure position. >> kirsten, he also went after president trump on coronavirus, wrapping that into the concept of leadership. here's what biden said there. >> president trump revels in division and chaos. he'll do anything to distract us from focusing on his failures to deal with this virus, to protect the nation. he still is living in a dream world. >> so kirsten, just some stats here. you have the spike of cases in the midwest. michigan is as tight as the state comes. president trump won it by 0.2%, which is less than 11,000 votes. all right. so thi

kirsten powers, your priority or your message between now and election day? >> stick to the basics and avoid trying the predictions. i mean, i actually think that it's fine that reporters and the media aren't going out of their way to do death watch stories, although there have been a few for trump. it's not really the job of the media to predict what's going to happen in the election. let people vote and don't, you know, don't try to predict the outcome. we saw what happened last time when a lot of people did that. even if that hadn't happened, i still think it's not really the job of the media to predicting who is going to win the white house. that has an affect on the voters and we just need to let people vote. >> john, how about you? >> look, modern politics is raucous and there is a lot of noise. but i think in the closing days we should remember it's really a solemn thing, this idea of the world's oldest democracy voting. we should try to recover an element of solemnity. [ inaudible ] a mentor of mine, it sounds a little bit boy scout, but he was right

but he was hospitalized, kirsten, a week ago. was he not feeling well two weeks ago? >> we don't know. that's the problem is we get all this contradictory information and we can't trust that any of this is straightforward. and the way that he talks about these things, joe biden is right in calling him reckless. you know, talking about this, as if there's some like miracle drug that heals you from it in a week or whatever time period he had it. i mean, we all know people who have had covid. you know, young people don't bounce back from it as quickly as the president claims that he did. it's just -- it's not really believable that that happened. and he's sending a recommend reckless message to people that it is something that could be healed so quickly. that there is this miracle drug, and that, now, you can go back and have another big event at the white house, and pretend that covid, you know, didn't actually spread at the white house. i mean, he's completely out of control. even for him. you know, this is just -- this is just next level out of control. >> mark, this

. >> i was laughing at kirsten's face. you had this pained look on your face, kirsten. go on. >> i don't think it's -- it's not like democrats or joe biden or doctors support shutting down the economy like it's some gleeful fun thing that people are doing. people want to stop the pandemic, and they want to stop people from dying. >> he said he doesn't want to shut down the economy, by the way. >> no. nobody wants to shut down the economy. that's the point. what people want is for us to be able to get past. this and to get past this everybody needs to do what they are supposed to do which is wear their masks and get social distance. i think that this is something that joe biden's very concerned about. but, you know, and look, if trump wants to double down on that message, that's fine. i mean, i think mike's right in the sense that it is right now everything is about turning out your voters. and if that's what's going to turn out trump voters, you know, then he is welcome to make that argument. it's not going to help us get past the pandemic. >> but it's also very dangero

>> monica, you mentioned kirsten welker moderating the debate, and the topic, fighting covid, american families, race in america, climate change, national security, and leadership. 17 days to go. the president is going to be in seven states in the next week. nbc's monica alba, in muskegon, michigan, thank you. >>> joe biden is keeping busy as well, he was in the battleground state of michigan. you see it there. a unique way, totally 2020 way of campaigning there. with the drive-in. it was a mobilization car rally, as they're calling it. of course, he's trying to flip the state that president trump won narrowly in 2016. and nbc has more on that. following the biden campaign. what was the main message that he was trying to take to voters there with this drive-in rally? >> good morning, both of you. yes, that the cars gathered there it reminds me of the dnc in wilmington, a couple of months ago, this very 2020 wave bringing voters together to hear from the candidates and joe biden last night in detroit, the message of unity is what he was trying to bring across, draw those contrasts with

. >> kirsten powers. mike shields. i appreciate both of you joining us. i think you know how i feel about this. we need to focus on things that happen now. but since he answered and he said he is coming out with a clear position i think it is now time to ask this question. so, kirsten, biden, is he, you know, at risk of alienating progressives with a noncommittal answer? >> well, i mean, it sounds like he's going to make a committal answer. so, i think that he's been trying to avoid that because, honestly, i think he's conflicted about it. it's something that i think is a perfectly defensible position, and it's certainly the position of progressives. but it's not, necessarily, something that is the position of moderate democrats, which biden is, contrary to what the trump people tell you. so he is in little bit of a pickle, i think. and i think the truth is he doesn't really know exactly what he would do, and he's -- he's sort of been trying to buy himself some time. >> well, he said we're going to find out before the election day. let's listen to the pre

kirsten, what stood out to you? >> this is really about the election, what senator harris was doing. the democrats know that she's going to get confirmed. so everything she was saying was with an eye towards voters. there's the two issues she focused on, the affordable care act, which is something that, you know, most democratic voters or moderate democratic voters or moderate independents leaning democratic, it's a top issue for them. and roe v. wade, which has the support of the majority of americans, these are two issues important in terms of voting. even voters who may be personally prone to life, many of them don't support overturning roe v. wade. so i think she had a real eye towards people who are voting, and that was really her target audience. >> jeff, to that front, we have seep her doing her cross-examinations. we saw it on the debate stage with joe biden and with her questioning of justice kavanaugh. but what you saw tonight was very different. she was very aware that she's on in the evening when america

most of the steinke of old kirsten was on top signing of all the big stars we have and there was amma since schuster. say roberto and lucio c.e.o. but he was the biggest player we had caused the most offices in. the denver effect . on throughout their socks since high school spirits. in both function. the mouse price. insists it's a new things in for buy. one that comes for the whole 6 hands. that despite a fetish to set sights order. and science just on. the business of living is a good of what happens we took the lead after a nice movie days when you dresden would defend solidly and it's all open at half time that's hopeful side it was often the 1st eyes on. for sherene the road to the final had been a long one starting at this tiny stadium opened in 1922. or . 3000 to show its own dogs how to stand with 3000 people there and then and there to use it for so for someone taking a corner they were practically tugging on your jersey this is the oldest of honor that and the noise to it was like a miniature and field in liverpool untrue than liverpool f. in the east german cup semifinals

kirsten gillibrand was among democrats who pulled an all nighter to protest the final vote that just happened, warning that the future of the affordable care act is on the line. >> now that we know that she is confirmed, what other key cases will she likely here? >> reporter: well, they will be the aca, certainly, there's a couple of different types of election ballot issues that are going on. those are invalid ground states. those with the first things that you will be hearing and they will be allegedly going to work tomorrow so she's got a lot of stuff going on tonight, there's going to be an event at the white house, and she will be sworn in. but also, there will be the rights of same-sex couples, they will be the president's immigration, his plans for that, and that anything that potentially comes out of this election because certainly, there could be some legal battles associated with that, as well. >>> you mentioned the white house is holding another event after the vote, even as it deals with another covid outbreak? >> reporter: yeah, and that is what is so interesting, we are

let me go to you, kirsten, you want. let me go to you, kirsten, you voted democrat back in 2016 but you voted democrat back in 2016 but you are not sure this time around that you can bring yourself to vote forjoe biden, what has produced a change of heart? i have taken a step back and decided that fax over feelings, and i cannot vote emotionally. i do think that there has, as long as i have been voting for 20 years or so the democratic party has treated the black community look a foregone conclusion. and while i will not vote for donald trump it's hard for me to make a decision to vote for joe biden when i don't feel like he has my best interest at heart or i will be part of a group that isjust voting for him based on identity politics and not because something is being done for me. brian, or to plea of a cliff because you're in kentucky and your senator is the majority leader in the senate, mitch mcconnell, he was in a debate this week with amy mcgrath who is running against him in the election. and we we re against him

. >> kirsten and justin mccoy are just as set on their choice. >> why are you voting for biden? >> i think one of the things that feels heartbreaking for me right now is the state of race relations and the racism in america. >> it's really important to me that everybody has access to health care. it's really important to me that we're taking care of the planet. >> yep. >> reporter: both campaigns are pushing hard to rally their base. the president won michigan by fewer than 11,000 votes in 2016. the smallest margin of victory in any state. >> he made promises and delivers. >> reporter: many of his supporters remain enthusiastic. jackie teaches a flower arranging class. her decision to vote for president trump is based on a single issue. >> i'm pro-life. pretty much it. i honestly am not a fan of either candidate, but that is very important to me. >> the recent news about an alleged plot by an extremist group to kidnap michigan's governor has shocked voters who blames the president's rhetoric for emboldening such groups. >> the way he's carrying on, i think he's making it easier

dickjohnson is dead is a documentary about film—maker kirsten johnson's father, who was suffering from dementia. in order to better deal with his passing in the future, johnson made a film in which he acts out his death in multiple ways. the tragic comic scenes in the film are bittersweet and may seem irreverent at times, but the director felt it was important to find a way to face her dad's condition. to acknowledge that certain people have been through terrible things or are going through terrible things is meaningful, in and of itself. i don't know what it is to experience dementia, i don't know what my father is going through, but i don't want to abandon him. i want to keep them at the centre of my thoughts and conversation. i don't want to sideline him as a person who is ageing and who is less mentally lucid than he was. a pool of strong documentaries have definitely emerged this year and so far none fiction films have been making a powerful impact. on both audiences and critics. when it comes to the oscars race, the pandemic has thrown everything into disarray. at this point the

but, did you think that was going on, kirsten, and then, april, please, follow on this. did you think that was going on with kamala's strategy tonight? >> i can't say, for sure. but, you know, my best guess would be yes because, as a woman, you know, i know this -- this firsthand. and i think, you know, watching other women in the public eye and seeing how they are treated and actually it's not just men who do it. women hold women to different standards, also. and so, and you're right. if it's -- if it's a woman of color, then it's an even -- an even higher standard. and so, i think that she had to be very careful about not seeming too aggressive. and actually, she could -- she really nailed it, in my book. i thought she had the strength, and she seemed presidential. but she was very warm. it's just such a hard thing to pull off, you know, as a woman. but i do feel like she did that and i don't think she could be as pugilistic as we saw her be, frankly, in the presidential debates. i don't think it worked as well and especially as a vice presidential candidate, i think t

his exasperation was clear when biden spoke, he largely waited his turn and was notably courteous to kirsten welker. grimaced,k his head, and theatrically gaped at trump, but largely waited his turn to have a say and even allowed his rival more than once to have the final word. at least it was not painful to watch is what the l.a. times writes in their wrap up. a couple of tweets about the mute button. post, thee washington mute button was a deterrence last night. it is not the actual power of the mute, but the threat that worked. this from ed morrissey with hot air, during the debate the muted microphones have made both men sound better. there were those out there that wanted them you button used more. the daily show tweeting a hypothetical where kristen welker thanked the president and former vice president for the debate and the mute button guy says, sorry i am late. did i miss anything? york, armaine in new supporter of joe biden. caller: good morning. i am tired of president trump acting like he has done everything for black people. that is insulting to me. what he has done is nothing b

the vote was yes with only then homeland security secretary kirsten nielsen voting against. joining us now, nbc news correspondent julia ainslie and "new york times" reporter and national security analyst michael schmidt. michael is the author of donald trump versus the united states, inside the struggle to stop a president. julia, we'll start with you and your reporting, interesting that kirsten nielsen who kind off on it was the one no vote. who wanted to separate children from their families and i believe the term was the younger the better or something like that? >> well, as we've been reporting -- the situation room in early may there was a deep -- attorney general sessions with -- the council member of the time -- to push forward -- >> we're going to fix -- julia, julia, we're going to fix your mic. we'll jump to michael schmidt as well. and, michael, your report thong story reflects what we were just talking about. there was almost a unanimous vote to separate children from their families and even the very young. >> yeah. so our reporting, you know, last night about t

kirsten, do you agree with that? john king was showing us earlier tonight. biden's not all that ahead of where hillary clinton was and, in fact, in some states, is actually behind where hillary clinton was, at this stage in the race. >> yeah. right. so, i think it is unlikely -- look. we're probably not going to have another -- god willing -- situation like, you know, comey coming out right before the election and changing the dynamic in -- in that serious kind of way. so, you know, what -- what i think is -- is fascinating is that, you know, donald trump, based on what we just heard, you know, more people trust him in terms of how to handle the economy. and yet, under any normal circumstances, a president who is trusted on the economy would be running away with the race. you know, that is -- that is, typically, the thing that people vote on. if you were to say give me one number and it's how the president's doing on the economy. that would all but guarantee that -- that they're going to be re-elected. and yet, he's not even remotely running away with the ra

our cnn's kirsten powell is here and anthony scarramucci is joining us as well. good evening all. mark mckinnon, boy, you are going to have a show this weekend. my head is spinning from this this week, the lies and the cover up and the back and forth on the stimulus and the debates. the president is going to hold another potential super spreader event at the white house tomorrow. this is insanity. >> yeah. yes, think about that, don, think about the fact that dr. fauci today defined that rose garden event swearing in of the supreme court nominee as a super spreader event. >> trump's own cdc director is defining it as a problematic situation. now they're going to replicate that again tomorrow. i am sure they'll have a mask but the notion that you are going to do something that reminds people of what may have started is insane. the president talks about how he can stand in the middle of fifth avenue and people would still support him. now can he stand at the white house and infect people? >> wow, crazy. >> anthony, why won't anyone in this administration tell the president this is n

from christ and trying is his inability to hit it and connect with voters and so yes you go back again kirsten yelling and i just i'm going to cut it in 2020 so ok so meanwhile the gloves appear to have come off the former 1st lady michelle obama has released a video message accusing the president of stoking fears about black and brown americans will take a look at a part of it so what the president is doing is once again patently false it's morally wrong all and yes it is racist but that doesn't mean it will work too louche this message for presumably democrats already think the worst of the president in trouble support as a kid. they'll forgive him anything. i think this whole election it's never up and out the base trump has his base has his it's about that slice in the middle and that slice in the middle that felt uncomfortable about voting for hillary 2016 they're really feeling uncomfortable about voting for trump now so this is talking to the well meaning folks we all know that they're in our family who kind of wonder is this really is bad as it seems and so she's talking right directly

kirsten gillibrand and eric swalwell. i am officially the democratic primary kiss of death. this isn't for sure, but it might have something to do with my green wroom i store my ladder, broken mirror, and black cat collection. if i'm going to be a jinx, i might as well use it to help america. john delaney, come on this show. it's time. this week, mayor bloomberg met with voters in burlington, vermont, and shook a dog's face. no! bad billionaire! bad! down, mike! down! the dog actually seemed to like it. so now bloomberg does the same thing with all the babies he meets. ( laughter ) there is-- there is just so much to talk about tonight, jon. we talked about this before. >> jon: yes, yes, yes. >> stephen: we've got the super bowl. we've got impeachment. we've got groundhog day. and we're calling our coverage super peach hawk cock. you know what, that does not look as good as i thought it would. let's just go with monday. now with all the polls relatively tight, the candidates are getting nastier with each other, especially joe biden and pete buttigeig, seen here cosplaying as

so she lost to the democratic senator kirsten cinema in 2018. voters know her and it's a nationalized race, certainly some of senator martha mcsally's problems that voters as you heard is too close to donald trump and the monmouth poll pulls that out. while she terrorize to say her opponent mark kelley would be a rubber stamp for democrat. he has been consistent and good at messaging and he has been an independent voice for the state while unfortunately she has been tagged as sort of a loyalist to donald trump that has helped her in a state moving away from trump and his style of politics. >> senator ben sass in a call to constituents had some really harsh criticism of the president. let's listen to a bit of that recording of the call and then we'll talk. >> if young people become permanent democrats because they have been repulsed by the obsessive nature of our politics or if women who were willing to still vote with the republican party in 2016 decide that they need to turn away from this party permanently in the future, the debate is not goin

it is miles taylor the former chief of staff to kirsten nielsen. the white house responded to taylor calling him a low-leveled disgruntled staffer. scott, let me start with you. your reaction to miles taylor coming forward saying he was the author of anonymous op-ed and the book. >> well, i mean, as a former white house staffer, i strongly disagreed with it. when the op-ed and book came out, i said at the time i couldn't believe that someone unelected part of the government would put their own policy wishes ahead of the elected part of the government. i mean, this is how our government works. we have elections. people are in charge. they hire and they are there to implement policy. if you disagree with those policies you can resign and make that clear but, obviously, he felt like his ideas were better than what the american people believed and i thought that was wrong. i wouldn't advise anyone to go into an administration with the goal of subverting the will of the american people following an election. so i wouldn't do it. >> karen? >> i agree wit

criticism and endorsed joe biden around the republican convention, but he was someone who was top aide to kirsten nielsen. other top aides, people like john kelly, he knows chad wolf, the acting secretary now, but i do think the white house thought this could be a top military general or someone of that nature that was going to come out just a few days before the election, and miles taylor someone they are familiar with. they do know he has been critical of what the president has said and has revealed things the president has said about immigration policy in private meetings. these damning statements coming from the president when he said he believes it's just his top aides around the room, things that miles taylor has revealed since he came out and endorsed joe biden. but i do think it will be a sense of relief that it's someone they weren't aware of that had already been critical of the president to a degree, jake. >> kaitlan collins, thank you so much. stay with us, and if the white house has a statement about this, please bring that to us. let's bring in our team here to discuss the identity

let me go through the list, sheldon whitehouse, dick durbin, mazie hirono, richard blumenthal, and kirsten gillibrand all threatened their supreme court with being restructured if they did not rule the way that the democrats wanted in a second amendment case relating to gun rights here in new york city. they threatened the high court. and joe biden on the campaign trail in the primary season actually said that democrats would rue the day they packed to the supreme court. so why now is joe biden saying oh, this issue matters to you, well, vote for me, and i will tell you how i think on it. he literally is a puppet of the far left here. that's why he is not coming out. why can't he speak to this? if he did not think that this was a good idea literally a few months ago, why does he refuse to step up about it now? this is just part of the overall plan. americans are quaking in their boots about it. to get rid of the filibuster, you pack the court with liberal justices. you get rid of the electoral college and you add states to the union. my father said to me last night, i am glad that i'm 84,

it's why she lost in 2018 to now senator kirsten cinema, the democrat, because she wasn't able to win over voters. arizona is nope fknown for tick splitting. a lot of voters may vote republican in the presidential and democratic in the senate and vice versa. i heard some say they'll vote for mark kelly but not sure who they will vote for, for president yet. so mcsally, she has embraced president trump on one end, but also when she was asked in one of the last debates if she was proud of him, she wouldn't answer the question. that's where she's been struggling to win republicans. >> to walk that line. larry, i know you have switched, i believe, your georgia races, kelly laughler to tossups. what do you see happening there? >> this is really fascinating to me, erin. usually voters forget the last election, they move on to other things. in georgia, though, something else is going on, and basically, it's what happened to democratic candidate stacey abrams, an african-american legislative leader who ran for governor and nearly won. and many even nonpartisan observers believe she lost to th

suburbs, which are predominantly white, and they could swing biden's way, the way they went for senator kirsten cinema in 2018, the first democrat to win statewide in decades. and so biden really needs to turn up -- turn out voters in the suburbs. he also needs to get about 70% of the latino electorate. from what i'm hearing, latinos are energized, but, again, it's ault about how many of them are going to turn out. is the pandemic going to affect that. which some of the latino democrats i've been speaking to on the ground are wary of the fact that even though arizona is familiar with voting by mail, that the pandemic could impact some of that turnout. >> so michael, the biden campaign is trying to clean up the exchange that biden had with trump on fracking. let me play it for you. >> i never said i oppose fracking. >> you said it on tape. >> show the tape. put it on your website. >> i'll put it on. >> the fact of the matter is, he's lying. >> he was against fracking, he said it. >> fracking on federal land. >> trump's team was quick to pull the ad in the past, here it is. >> could there by in p

martha mcsally already not a strong candidate and didn't win against kirsten cinema and not doing well against mark kelly and doesn't sound like the president being there is helping her much in the polling. tell us what you are seeing. >> reporter: yeah, katy, it was just a few years ago that republican mcsally ran here in arizona against cinema and lost and the question has been would she be able to make up the ground and be able to beat democrat mark kelly. of course the former astronaut and husband of former congresswoman from arizona here gabby g gabby giffords and we are in the west end of phoenix. folks can drop off the ballots but, captain, if you could give a set-up of the town. >> this is the west side of phoenix. this is an early vote center but folks can still vote here on saturday and sunday. if they have a reason to not vote on tuesday which can be coronavirus, they can fill out an affidavit and vote here on saturday, sunday, monday and definitely on tuesday. >> you have a couple stops ahead. can you tell us where the race is? we have seen you up in polling in the state. w

so, kirsten, biden, is he at risk of alienating progressives with a noncommittal answer? >> well, i mean, it sounds like he's going to make a committal answer, so i think that he's been trying to avoid that because honestly, i think he's conflicted about it. it's something that i think is a perfectly defensible position and it's certainly the position of progressives. but it's not something that is the position of moderate democrats, which biden is contrary to what the trump people tell you. he's in a little bit of a pickle, i think. i think the truth is he doesn't really know exactly what he would do and he's been trying to buy himself some time. >> he said we're going to find out before election day. let's listen to the president on roe v. wade. >> would you like to see roe v. wade overturned? >> i would like to see someone in great depth who has skirted this issue for a long time make a decision. that's why i chose her. i think she's going to make a great decision. i did not tell her what decision to make and i think it would be inappropriate to say right now because i

stand with kirsten jill brand before i was considering running for office. i'm a military sexual assault survivor. i'm familiar with the culture. let's acknowledge. 99% of the men and women in uniform are patriots who do not contribute to this culture. we have to do something for the people like myself who have been survivors of this type of thing. john cornyn won't vote for the military justice improvement act. if he would have listened to me and my story and how my chain of command let me down when the perpetrator in my case confessed he maybe would have done different but he doesn't listen to people who disagree with him. >> according to j.m.c. analytics and polling, there have been more than 73 million mail-in ballot requests across the country. the president himself has raised the issue that security of those ballots may be this question. ms. hegar, you have 60 seconds for this first question. do you believe the results on election night could be compromised? ms. hegar: i have every faith in our democracy and in our electoral process and i also think th

it was said to close 49 rural hospitals, and kirsten gillibrand, her colleague, said of the public option is a transition to single-payer. that would devastate the health care markets. it would be a government takeover. the reimbursement rates would drop, and we'd be rationing by q in the near distant future, which is why i oppose a single-payer system. mike: tina smith, one more chance to respond and we'll move on. sen. smith: well, everybody in this country should have access to high-quality health insurance they can afford no matter who they are or where they live. that is why we should be focusing on supporting medicare, which is such an important part for our seniors, rather than my opponent who supported half $1 trillion in cuts. we should be looking at shoring up what we have and making it better and moving to a place where everybody has access to health insurance they can afford. and that's why i support the public option, which would allow people to choose to buy into medicare if they wanted to, and if they wanted to keep the insurance they have through their employer, that would

there's reporting, i think it was kirsten nielsen, was told not to bring up russia stuff. so, what has been done? because the complaint has been, if the president of the united states is not the one sending out the message that countering disinformation, you know, if it's not coming from the top, it's not -- you know, as what vice president would call it, it's not a whole-of-government effort to stop this stuff. >> well, that's absolutely right, anderson. and -- and this is the -- this is a threat that is so significant that it should be led by the president of the united states. it should be championed by, you know, our leaders on capitol hill. it should have been supported with legislation and proactive measures, which it certainly was not. nevertheless, i'm quite sure that the fbi and the rest of the intelligence community has been assiduously working it. you need to know that, in 2016, we were literally learning these things, as we went. you know, this was the first time we had ever seen interference, on this level. we stood by and watched, while the russians probed th

former chief of staff to homeland security secretary, kirsten nielsen. inside the struggle to stop a president. brother schmidt, let me start be you. what the white house is telling us doesn't seem to line up. hope hicks gets it wednesday. they test her in the morning. she was fine, they say. at night, she wasn't. what does that mean? they have testing protocols on hand at an event? then, we quarantined her. you put her on the same plane with the president and you didn't test him until 24 hours later? and we find out about the judge event on saturday where all these other people are getting sick, where the president was. what are you piecing together in terms of what they really know about how this happened? >> well, even the moderator of the debate, chris wallace, talking today about how there was no -- didn't seem like there was any testing that had been followed as the president arrived. question about whether the president, himself, had been tested. the -- look, the white house has not been forthcoming about a lot of different things. that's not a ne

and praise from the president, and viewers alike for kirsten, master class performance as moderator at thursday night's debate. >> and social media can be brutal. and you didn't see any of that, it has all been positive and take a look at the headlines, minutes after the debate, and let cristen moderate every debate, proving to be a taming force at biden trump final showdown. the obvious winner of the final debate, moderator kristen welker. >> how are you feeling reich now? >> you're going to make me blush. i am grateful for a great team. thank you for being so supportve. and just the relief is just starting to set in. >> i'm curious, that one moment, before donald trump and joe biden walk out, where you're alone on stage for like a palestinian and i couldn't help but just watch you and wonder what's going through your head. so what was going through irhead in that moment -- through your head at that moment. you have ten seconds uninterrupted. >> okay, i'm try. some anxiety, a little bit of fear, but just really trying to get my papers organized, so that i could see my first question,

and kirsten, every meeting i had, every meeting i had, i met a lot of families including gold star families and military families, every meeting i had i had to meet them, it would be horrible to have canceled everything i said you know, this is dangerous and you catch it. i caught it. i learned a lot. i learned a lot. great doctors, great hospitals. and now i recovered. 99.9 much young people recover. 90% of pool recover. which have to recover. we can't close up our nation. we have to open up your schools and close our nation or you will not have a nation. >> the cdc says young people can get sick with covid-19 and can pass it. vice president biden i want to talk about strategy. >> can i respond to that? >> 30 seconds i have a question. >> number one, he says we're learning to live with it. people are learning to die with it. you folks home with empty chair at kitchen table this morning, that man or wife going to bed tonight, reaching over to try to touch out of habit where their wife or husband was is gone. learning to live with it, come on. we're dying with it. because he is has never sai
