Steve, you know, because youre interviewing kate benningfield from the biden campaign friday as they ended one of the most difficult weeks of the short campaign for them so far, dealing with not just the act cue cases that they lifted passages of his climate plan, and that reversal as it relates to the hyde amendment, that abrupt reversal as it relates to policy. the fact that the president was going to be in iowa on the same day they planned to be there gave them somewhat of a gift. they wanted...

And now the president is on a flight on air force one and hes going to be able to see the highlights of joe bidens speech before they both touch down in the same state. now we should note weve seen this feud bubbling up between the of two them but theyre going to be on different parts of the state. not even going to come within 100 miles of each other in iowa because the president as jeff noted is in the western side of the state and joe biden will stick closer to the eastern side so they are no...

Compel this interview to happen. but theyre weighing two things here, which is will they get mueller in which is the first question, but also once he comes in what will he say, what will he do? is there the benefit they think there is and even if he only does what he said hed do which is basically read from the report is that enough to advance their case for the american public which is the sticking point at this point. they need to get more public support behind them before the speaker is going...

We already knew that joe biden would speak the presidents name 44 times. and im going to guess its not like in the hallmark fashion, "i love you." >> the media to a great extent defense was going on out there. but the end of the day, itll be that hes in a smack down with donald trump. >> harris: dont put it on us! we dont need the hyperbole. we just report the facts. you dont need any of that! >> but its the nature of our business now. it goes with what is out front, and he will ensure by the en...

To be present than good. this day, and really tomorrows event, too, offers the vice president a great chance to turn the page on the stories of last week and put himself on even footing with the president of the united states, which is an opportunity all of these campaigns covet and now joe biden uniquely gets. remember, he was not here over the weekend when so many of the democratic challengers were. they had the appearance of competing with each other. now the vice president gets to stand in w...
