President trump has a Crazy Campaign schedule coming up. Its not too late for the president to turn his race around. But time is running out. What are they saying at the white house . Well, they are scrambling, and making the best of it and saying the polls are off and they have a ground game that is going to work but it will be difficult. Its more like they that joe biden wins a landslide than trump wins a squeaker like in 2016. If you look at the map, joe biden needs to hold off the clint yob states from 2016, and the polls indicate hes going do that and win the three rust belt states that trump narrowly won to squeak out a victory, michigan, pennsylvania, and wisconsin. He is at or above 50 in the polls. Both of those are significant and different from the situation that Hillary Clinton found herself in, in the end of 2016, where she had a lead. It aint over until its over. Back in 16, exit polling in wisconsin and michigan showed early deciders went from clinton and late deciders w
Also going up. Yet today President Trump is holding three Large Campaign rallies in pennsylvania the president is holding superspreader events. No masks required, no social distancing, everyone gathered in tight circles. And the president is also complaining about restrictions put in place in pennsylvania, guidelines issued by the governor and others to try to save lives. These rallies come during a new second outbreak at the white house itself, this time hitting the inner circle of Vice President mike pence. At least five people in pences orbit have tested positive for the virus in recent days, including pences chief of staff marc short, and yes, the vice presiden president , who is the head of the Coronavirus Task force, is not quarantining, even though he has had close contact with marc short. Instead the Vice President is defying the cdc guidance evancgg he is an aesessential worker. That rally is set to start any moment. All of this guidance by the center of Disease Control presen
And well go to the front lines of the pandemic nightmare in el paso, texas, where theres a covid curfew and the Funeral Homes are overrun. When all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. Well, we are now one week from the end of this election, or at least the end of votes being cast in this election. I think its fair to say there is an intense almost unbearable level of anxiety right now among the millions and millions of a people that make up the prodemocracy antitrump io majority of this country. Its a majority thats been ridiculed and belittled by the president and the conservative j party and conservative media for somehow being out of touch, d despite being the majority. There are reasons to be nervous. Number one, i dont have to remind you of this. Everyone remembers four years ago. And even though the National Polls were pretty close to accurate down the stretch, there were major polling issues in individual states, particularlyw michigan, wisconsin, pe
Almost 1,000 deaths in one single day. All of that orange and red you see, bad news. Omar, to you first. Michigan said a record singleday high number of cases. Reporter for starters, brianna, while there are a lot of people with masks theres a lot more without masks. You can see bei hind me theres thousands of people who have packed into here, just a day after the state said a singleday report for coronavirus cases. Around 3600. To give you an idea, a week ago that number was around 1800. This really is in the final push for a state that he won by a percentage point back in 2016. The real question, though, is how many people are actually left who havent cast their vote. The early Voting Period has been incredibly enthusiastic. Weve already seen more than 50 of the entire 2016 turnout accounted for in just the early Voting Period, with 2. 6 million ballots returned. Again, as part of this final push, it was 1. 2 early voting ballots that were returned during this period in 2016. Tomorro
