His catch laharries evolution, as well as neil. Were one week from the big debate, two people who actually have never met. We also will see early voting begin as early as two weeks from now with. Early mailin ballots going out this friday. This is it. When they talk about the general election, this is why they talk about it, starting now after Labor Day because of all these things. Now, Kamala Harris is in multiple states this Week Newspaper Newspaper tomorrow, pittsburgh, pennsylvania on thursday. And she was in p. A. Just yesterday, which has so many key delegates, keep to the blue wall. That was her Labor Day speech. This was her first appearance with president biden. Wall street did not build america. When Union Wages go up, everybodys wages go up. The middle class built america, and unions built the midsle class. Are you ready to fight . We are the underdog in this race. If you elect Kamala Harris in this election, that will be the best decision you ever made. We like work. Hard work is good work, not only a reference to crediting the labor of so many americans, and she also, of course, was talking about the Hard Work left in the nine Weeks Homestretch of the general election. Shes doing it, and as a contrast to Donald Trump, who is not doing any inperson rallies all this week, and Labor Day, he didnt hold any public events yesterday. So the Harris Campaign is going after trump on this point. They used his own app, his Platform Truth social, to compare the schedules, three states verse none, noting that trump was, golfing, as you see, question mark. And theres been remarks that hes phoning in, a low energy, undisciplined campaign, from his own former white House Staffer who spoke to the washington post. Its a downright lackadaisical approach to campaigning, at a time when everything matters. Its also striking, if hes good at anything, hes effective at driving the message and pr, tv and attention. Thats something hes known for. If you dont go out and meeting with people, youre obviously reducing the amount of stuff that would be covered in pr and tv. Harris also went on tv and did her first being interview, a joint interview with Tim Walz, and she hammered trump. Weve had in the former President Someone who is really been pushing an agenda, and an environment that is about diminishing the Character And Strength of who we are as americans, dividing the nation. He said he would allow medicare to negotiate prices. It never happened. We did it. Hitting there on policy items. Everything well discuss is about campaigning and the time and the places that you prioritize then theres the money. We only have a few weeks to see how shes doing. The team is on pace to double trumps spending on air in these next and final two months of the campaign. Thats a big deal. The Harris Campaign also projecting confidence and trying to make up for a place where the downballot, grassroots races. Think about hauling in 25 Million and then distributing it. Thats sometimes things we dethe dnc years into a presidency, but shes in a strong enough position to start doing it now. They are past half a Bill Ron in these first two weeks. According to politico reporting, republicans are panicking over the huge money gap. Let me repeat, that quote is from a republican trying to sound the alarm we will lose what they view as they quote, winnable republican seats. This is what the general election is starting out like. Its a measure of a drastically shifted landscape. That does not mean it tells you where things will end. If you watch this program, we try to always tell you our sources and evidence. We dont have the evidence yet or the largest trends. If people say its obvious what will happen, but i can tell you it looks like a very close race. The evidence does show an improvement in the democratic position. And how democrats are benefiting from her at the top of the ticket instead of biden. We know the anxiety used to run quite high, everyone from nancy pelosi, Chuck Schumer more pride privately, Hakim Jeffries even more privately. But one of the people that kicked off that conversation, you might remember, is George Clooney. Not because hes an Actor Or Celebrity or talented or famous. He was one that had a special role in the Obama Kind of coalition, as a donor, a fundraiser, and kind of a national figure. He did open up a larger conversation when he urged biden to step down. You might recall New York Times handed the mic to clooney, and he penned an oped talking about a theme. Thats where he spoke. You can debate whether these rich celebrities and our cultural figures have too much or too little influence, but it did make a difference. Historians will go back that that as well as ezra Kleins Peet and others early pushes. He brought his silence over the weekend, now touting Joe Biden since he exited. The person who should be applauded is the president who did the most selfless thing that anybody has done since george washington. Invite machination that is got us there, none of that will be remembered, and it shouldnt be. What should be remembered is the Selfless Act of someone who, its very hard to let go of power. Weve seen it all around the world. For someone to say, i think theres a better way forward, thats all the credit goes to him. All credit to biden, says clooney. He, like Ezra Klein, who wrote about this in New York Times, really did open up space. Theres so much criticism about what happens, for example, on the right, but in democratic circles, there was an absence of public and real reckoning with some of the issues that led to the late exit of Joe Biden and now Kamala Harris, so its striking tonight to just hear him break his silence. He kept himself sort of out of view. There he made it all about biden, not himself, and he credits biden for the Selfless Act. We are just six weeks out of this thing or, you know, nine or ten out from the first public push, and what a world of difference its made. So, thats how we got here. The race has shifted. Now were seeing signs of the electoral map shifting. Just over a months ago, pbs notes, trump allies were suggesting that several states could be in play. Quote, neither side believes thats still the case. Pbs is crunching the numbers and quoting republicans. Were all familiar with spin in campaigns, but its true that even trump defenders, maga allies are no longer claiming this kind of thing is going to be some sort of trump romp. Heres harris telling supporters, to not get overconfident. We know this is a tight race to the very end. Its going to be a Ties Rate to the very end. Lets not pay too much attention to those polls, because as unions and labor knows best, we know what its like to be the underdog. Were the underdog in this race, and we have some Hard Work ahead of us. Those themes again Hard Work and still the underdog. But heres whats so interesting about political communication. You didnt hear Joe Biden emphasizing two months ago he was the underdog, even though he was behind. The reason is a bit of a paradox. There were signs he was far enough behind he didnt want to bring it up. There are now signs that Kamala Harris might have pulled even or possibly ahead, including building leads in states that wont it doesnt rye solve the electoral college, and shes going out of the way to tell a very excited highly donating highly active set of voters, hey, she still wants to be the underdog. The only way to be the Top Dog is to have everyone turn out. With that in mind, we turn to someone who used to run the democratic party, Howard Dean, and our longtime Vet Rule april ryan. Were back together in 90 seconds. R in 90 seconds. And im keeping the weight off. Wegovy helps you lose weight and keep it off. Im reducing my risk.

We need someone on that stage who has the ability to go Toe To toe with Donald Trump and someone who has the ability to rebuild the Obama Coalition and bring the party and the nation together. I believe i am that candidate. That was then candidate Kamala Harris, who is now the nominee. Were joined by april ryan, and former dnc chair, former governor of vermont, Howard Dean. Welcome to you both. April, your thoughts on what i mentioned, which is still a remarkable shift from a few weeks ago, where now you have George Clooney crediting Joe Biden as the new george washington, and Kamala Harris insisting shes still an underdog. Two interesting pieces. One, george kleinie, i dont think he nailed the coffin shut, but definitely put one of the nails in that coffin for Joe Biden, when it came to ending his president ial campaign. George clonely, he was upset with Joe Biden, for not doing something when it comes to israel and hamas and gaza, what his wife offered. At The End of the day, it doesnt do anything. It just has its a smoothover for George Clooney to fix this, as he was one of those who actually put the last nail in that coffin. When it comes to the issue of underdog ill let you finish, april, but George Clooney was the Ezra Klein of hollywood. He was tied to the hollywood money. There were a lot of democrats worrying about this in private. There were only a few that went public. It was interesting to see him almost hit the Dnc Mood that joe is now the best person, but its regard to give up the power. No, but he had to do that. Joe biden really did sacrifice himself. Hes a politicians politics. You cannot deny the history of Joe Biden and not deny who he was as president. You know, for this president , Joe Biden, to lead in this moment and cite ben frankly and the continental convention and the declaration of independence, saying he was trying to save the republic. What is at stake is not two personalities, but its the democracy. Thats what people are forgetting. You go to democracy where you have some rights, to someone who possibly could be a dictator. You lose government, but didnt know it. You have loyalty tests. Immigration would be different. Abortion would be different. Lgbtq plus Person Wouldnt have rights. And brown and black folks are fearful. Kamala harris, from my reporting from decades, i dont like the idea of saying underdog. Ive seen that before, and Howard Dean probably knows where im going. I covered Al Gore and george w. Bush. I have a picture from a Halloween Party when Al Gore donned the underdog costume, and he lost. Shes a strong candidate, but neither candidate can take for granted where they are. Kamala harris is not an underdog. Shes a strong fighter that has Donald Trump on the ropes. That man is 78 years old, and so scared this week hes home. Lets talk about that for a for a moment. I take your point, and Howard Dean knows it well. To the labor crowd, she might be saying lets keep working. To the General Public she also need to project the confidence that shes ready to work on day one. Howard dean, well take your responses to all of the above, and then this effort to go after harris. First, go ahead on everything. I think this stuff about the underdog, its device to get people working, not to allow any overconfidence just because the polls at this Point Polls are ridiculous. They do show its a very even race. Thats about all you can tell. You know, as we know, the polls in the Internet Age have not what they were 20 years ago. I think its a device to make sure her base doesnt take anything for granted, though i think thats unlikely. Theyre energized by this relatively young woman who hope about to be the president of the united states. Nonetheless, i understand what shes doing. Then Donald Trump has always been stuck at 45 or below. Theres a lot of evidence that the Trump Campaign has been thrown offbalance for whatever you want to call it, with a rematch of the other guys and now one Joe Car borrow is talking about what were going to see. Take a look. The campaign has said internally, they know he can they cant make people like Donald Trump. Right. So their goal is to make people hate Kamala Harris. If they cant get americans to hate Kamala Harris, then they understand she will win. Howard . I think thats right. I think that was pretty insightful of joe. Thats exactly right. I think the Reason Trump a lot of the fight has gone out of trump. You can see him flailing around, almost like hes been punched in the face and didnt understand how that could happen, plus a lot of Cell Phone errors. He comes out with crap. When hes up, people believe the crap, but when hes downs, it doesnt look good. It looks like you have a losing hand. I think his staff doesnt know what to do about it. They will steal the election. They tried it in 2020, and theyve had four years to prepare for this. We know what they have done. They installed their own people. In georgia, the runaway board of elections even to the horror of rafts burger, and theres a lot of shenanigans going on. When your campaign is relying on shenanigans, you probably are not going to win. An important warning. And we have a lot of scrutiny on that. We appreciate you bringing that up. Many good why is from both of you. Thank you both for kicking us off tonight. Thank you. Thank you. We have something really special by The End of the hour, the great comic d. L.

Switch today this is the campaign season, but Donald Trumps legal woes continue to echo, and could be a big deal at the debate last week. Heres an example of some of the news. Today, a judge denying trumps effort to try to move that new York Case where he was, of course, convicted to federal court, which would interfere with the planned sentencing, which is for this month, though that could change. He was convicted with 24 felony counts. It seems like a long time ago. The judge is expected to rule on September 16th on trumps question to overturn the verdict. He is arcing for a full dismissal based on that big and helpful to him decision by the Supreme Court. Its hard to see how that would vacate or wipe out the whole ruling, but he is allowed to ask for that. Then theres the Coup Case with Jack Smith, Hearing Set on thursday how to move forward. The doj is telling the judge the timeline is essentially in her hands. Trump was asked about this on fox news, or at least got into it, i should say, arguing he has every right to interfere in that past election. Its so crazy that my Poll Numbers go up. Whoever you heard, you get indicted for interfering with a president ial election, where you have every right to do it, you get indicted, and your Poll Numbers go up. When people get indicted, your Poll Numbers go down. Two points here, one thats bad for trump, the legal fact check. You do not have a right to interfere on try to change the outcome of elections you lose. Thats so common sense, you dont need a lot of legal training if politicians, especially the president had a right or a legal way to simply change the outcome of the elections they lose, they wouldnt be a very longstanding democracy. Point two, in fairness to trump, he could be arguing to some degree that he was indicted for things that he thinking hes allowed to do. If you want to give him the benefit of the doubt, i was indicted, but i didnt really do it. Yet, thats why we have a whole court system, you can see a trial whether youre convicted or not. Jack smith did refile parts of the original Coup Case to be consistent with the Supreme Court ruling. He narrowed the charges, removing one of the plots. Trump pled not guilty, as expected to the revised filing. We charted them out as they arrows long before they were ever indicted. The green stuff, like if you were waiting for a traffic light, is not legal, the yellow is questionable, the recent we are charting as possibly illegal or unconstitutional. When you look at the doj interference, according to the Supreme Court, the Doj Take what was market as the Red Doj plot, now turned basically green. That doesnt mean its a great idea or any other president tried this kind of thing. It means that Jack Smith has yanked it among the criminalized or potentially indictability offenses in his Coup Case. We will update the charts no matter what turns red, green or yellow. Were joined by neal katyal, who has argued many cases before the Supreme Court. Welcome back. Thank you. Good to be here. Youre familiar with news cycle, neal. Theres been a lot of news cycling. I just ran think, actually pretty quickly, how many legal events are still dogging trump amid st. All of this. Big picture should this still matter to voters. Would this come up at the debate . And what does the recent events tell you . I think its going to come up in the debate and the next two months, ari. Weve never had a candidate for the highest office in the Land Run as a convicted felon, but thats what we have. Hes been convicted 32 times. Truly, he hasnt been sentenced, and theres all sort of procedural things his team is trying to do things to delay thing, and hes accused of launching a coup, and using legal tactics to delay whether he did it or not. Thats not the only thing at stake in the election, a whole host of things that Donald Trump messed up as president tremendously and Kamala Harris will do a great job at, but i think this is important, particularly to Donald Trump. He says his running for you and me, but hes running to protect his hide. If he loses his election, Hell Face the music in georgia, and the u. S. Department of justice and face the music in new york. Yeah. That reminds you of all the things that hes running from. We put up the arrows while you were talking. There were so many plots that it was easy to lose track of when and how they worked. Many of them, as viewers i think know had no Nexus Or Connection to they were just Rudy Giuliani Works for the campaign, he goes and lies to state officials. Campaign operatives asks people to commit fraud, and then the doj piece, which is complex, because you have former doj officials who are name checked by the doj now, has been pulled back. Walk us through what Jack Smith is doing there, as i mentioned, the doj now green on the lower right. Yeah, i love think graphic. What the Supreme Court did last month is that it said Donald Trump has immunity for his official acts as president. The question is, are there any official acts in that indictment. What your Graphic Shows so nicely, yeah, its one. Its the Justice Department interference, which was horrendous. To any of us who served at the department of justice, unthinkable that any president would do such a think. Thats been wry moved. Jack smith in filing his second indictment struck that from the complaint, but at the same time he charged trump with all the other arrows on your document, and didnt have to mention he had the nuclear codes in his pocket when he committed them. I think smith was very careful to refer to trump in those other arrows as a candidate and citizen, which removes him from any Supreme Court protection. Theres a lot more arrows and of course the January 6th Coup Chief among them. Excellent. Really interesting to get your breakdown on though. Neal, thank you. You can always go to msnbc. Com openingarguments and see many of neals breakdowns. Up happy, whether he proves to be a great running mat, but he is tying the ticket back to project 2025. Then from the dnc All The Way back to The Beat, d. L. Hughley is here talking punch lines. Playing Donald Trump and ive been married to a black woman for 20 years, and i aint won one debate.

Thanks to golo and release, ive got my life and my health back. Project 2025 is linked to trump aides, republican leadership, the heritage foundation, and broadly matches a lot of what trump and hardline republicans have said they would do it a second term. Its proven to be unpopular, so they run from it, claiming they Hog Nod to do it, but there are many accounts showing how it matches trumps Party Platform this year. You also want to go to the source and get people on record. Weve had many trump aides and republicans on this program. I recently had trumps 2016 campaign manager, who is back on the 2024 campaign, corey lewandowski. We went back and forth. Why are so many parts of the republican Platform Overlap with 25. We can put very simple. President trump said hes had Nothing Dodd with project 2025. Theres groups on the right and the left who come up with policy initiatives. What do you saying to the people who saying theyre basically 25 on abortion . I know nothing about project 2025. Project 2025 has absolutely nothing to do with the past, present or future. President trump and President Trump alone will make his own policies. Heritage does such an incredible job. They lay the Ground Work for exactly what our movement will do. You can take it all there together, Lewandowski And Miller here, and that shows what theyre saying now, then you have the history ive shown you, including trump touting heritage for the blueprint. Now we have Jd Vance with his linking to project 2025, and some have only been unearthed recently. He wrote an Admiring Introduction to earlier reports, saying any support for lowincome individuals to get on their feet is, quote, a poison. Children born to single mothers are those babies themselves, a quote, tragedy. Thats just some parts of the New York Times highlighted in their reporting. This goes beyond 2025. Jd vance was picked this year. They have an entire Vetting System to decide what they want to say with a running mate selection. Many People Thiol Kamala Harris for what Tim Walz has said and done. Same go for trump. Vances past comments are haunting this ticket. From 2021. Not having children i think changes the way you think about the were beg ruled by a childless elite, were intera new era where leaders of the left are not just without kids, but theyre proud of the Fact And Look do you think on people who invest their time in their children and their future. Thats a dangerous time. Thats what j. D. Vance says and thinking. When it comes to getting the facts and information from people, its a good thing that the voters can hear from all those folks in these interviews to be informed what they think, what they said to do with this country and the society you live in before you go off and vote.

The campaign is on, and Kamala Harris feels they are still surging off an effective dnc, where people saw politicians, musician, actor and some agreed comedians, including d. L. Hughley, whos been active online, discussion his views. He spent his time on the stage, using it effectively to roast trump. Of course, kamala is getting broad support. Black men for kamala, white men for kamala, latinos and asians for kamala, they even have republicans for kamala. Reps, i decent Donald Trumply finally know what its like when you get left for a younger woman. I dont blame Donald Trump not wanting to date kamala. Ive been married to a black oil and i havent won one debate. Im 0 for 48,000. Trump i guarantee you. Kamala has been black longer than trump has been a republican. D. L. Hughley joins us. Hello, man. How are you doing . Im doing, baby, are you good . Im great. Weve talked about politics before. I saw you taking your Big Star turn. Right. A lot of people watched, over 20 Million a night, not counting the internet. I dont know if that was your biggest crowd, but it was one of them. What were you trying to convey . I think ultimately i was trying to convey the message, light a lot of people had misrepublicaned vp harris record. I had a conversation with her i actually had it on my radio program, and i said then, as i believe now, when you have besmirched Somethings Record or character, you have an obligation to make your apology as loud as your accusations. It didnt seem to be a better opportunity than to do it in front of whole damn world. Thats fascinating. People run from those moments, whether its comedy or politics. I want to show some of that in part, because you want basically you had learned and changed, you were wrong based on some of the information you initially had. You, like many other people, d. L. versus criticized the idea that a prosecutor should be the democratic representative. We have some of this put together. Take a look. Kamala win, and im very im happy shes in black mode, not in cop motor. She was a district attorney, a but seriously theres a good reason to have a black vice president. At least you can have somebody to go to those funerals. And heres how you put it at the dnc. If you tell me 15yearold me would be on to this supporting a prosecutor and a teacher . [ laughter ] there is no way that i would have believed you. Imagine attacking Someones Character without a single google search. So i did what i should have done in the first place. I learned that she had done for us exactly what she promised to. I believe that your apology should be as loud as your accusation, and im here apologizing in front of the whole damn world. What have you heard since then . And theres this term people throw around in politics, permission structure. That you, your leadership, creates a structure for other people to go, oh, maybe i was too quick to judge. I grew up in los angeles. And i watched that system just chew up and spit out a lot of men i know, a lot of young men i know. So an agent of that system would have been met with skepticism to say the least, but that didnt you know, progressive im 60 years old, i would have never heard an occasion to use the word progressive prosecutor. It didnt exist before. It wasnt in our lexicon until she and other people of late put it there. So i can say that the onus was on me to never assail somebodys character, but it is an anomaly, a phenomenon no one had ever seen before. Some are saying shes too tough of crime, some saying she wasnt enough. Basically, i found her to be a bright, erudite humane woman who im more than happy who is capable of not only being the leader of this country but the world. Theres been a lot of discussion about how Donald Trump has peeled back at least in the polling groups he struggled with earlier. And its too early to know with harris replacing biden, but those of us who are into it, we go its on. Its only been a couple weeks and people are busy with their lives and summers. Do you think Kamala Harris can help better appeal to Black American Males whose Vote Shouldnt be taken for granted, automatic for any party anyway . I think Nobodys Vote should. I think she is opening peoples mind up to having a conversation. People are now at least willing to have a look. I think its not as, you know, i tell you what, i would rather be us in these last three or four weeks than the other side. If you look at heres the things she has done, she served, shes the media wants to speak to her more than anybody else. Shes found a way to erase that, and i think its driving him crazy. It isnt that trump is having a hard time dealing with her. Its that she knows exactly how to deal with him. I think from a prosecutorial standpoint, being a black woman, a woman of color, or anything other, you have to run, and men like that have always been on the so i think shes perfectly suited to deal with him. I dont know what he gets from debating her. I think everything he does, so its like a bloodhound smelling blood. I dont know that will be something that he enjoys, but i think its something that im excited about the prospect for. Last question, we followed that convention closely. We see each person come out, we see the reactions. Were curious how much did the Harris Campaign, the dnc organizers know about exactly what you were going to say, when did they know . It was interesting what you said. How did that work . Like anything else, youre vetted. I think we were taking jokes out. Primarily, they adjusted what i was saying. They were aware, but there were a lot of jokes they felt wouldnt have been appropriate or there was vetting of the jokes. Other than that tell me before i let you go im not doing that. Whats one joke that was too hot . No. You know what, to me, i mean, because obviously, its reflective of her entree, the first time people in the nation had seen her. I think she left in high spirits. I dont want to do anything i have already done enough. I damaged her prospects in 2019. Im not about to do it again. What it reminds me of, i dont know if you know the famous Ali Picture at The End of the fight with the last fist clocked but never sent. Yeah, never thrown. Thats you, whatever these now unreleased jokes are. Man, you know, it was funny. I played the United Center. We have played the United Center more than any other comics. We just got an award. It felt like that to me. But i think that once you have done something, and you are trying to make it right, youre more cognizant than you would be. I really think for the first time in a long time, people from across all political stripes are really excited about the prospect. I think more than anything, the prospect that people could be without this man who has been in our life for ten years, different iterations whether its the racist Stuff Or Handling of covid, just to be without the specter of him hanging over, it shaped every aspect of our life, from the way people absorb politics to voting to journalism to everything. I think the prospect of having him out of our lives is very seductive. Very seductive. The possibility im excited about. D. L. Hughley, thank you so much. Always good to hear from you.
