CNNW Erin July 2, 2024

You that and then by people who would be cheering for him while he was important for him all day long. But it will say hes been remarkably on message here talking about things that do matter to new york voters, talking about helping with infrastructure, helping with jobs. And i a number of people in the bronx say before we even got into the rally and then rise to really responsive there was we had people saying you should get out and he doesnt belong here, but we also had people saying that they voted for biden and 20 and they were looking for alternative many of them citing the economy, sydney felt like times were too hard and they were looking at seriously voting for donald trump all right, kristin, thank you very much. Right up there and cortona park in the bronx joke indians out with fraught with me now republican strategist and former Republican Senate candidate here in new york, and the host of the truth with Sherwin Hughes radio show out of wisconsin. Sure. When he was his back, he interviewed President Biden on a show last week. So sherwin you are telling me then that you felt trump had ignored the african in American Community as president and that, that community is much better off now under President Biden. But now, when you look at whats happening in the bronx and sure they had time to plan this. They knew they were going to make sure people showed up, but but people are there this is one of the most reliably democratic districts in the country. And theyre, theyre listening to trump right now. Those some of those voters, what do you make of it i think this is nothing more than an exercise and political theater. People that show up to rallies are not indicative of the people who are actually going to cast their votes. Donald trump is not going to get the electoral vote. Mostly state of new york. In fact, the folks that are in the area of the bronx voted for joe biden. Youd like an 80 plus percent. He got joe biden got 80 plus percent of the vote in the areas surrounding the bronx. But i think as the Campaign Goes on, and people are reminded of not just who donald trump is, but his whole cast of republican characters who they are, and the policies that they support harmful to people of color, especially African Americans whatever the poles are saying right now, youre certainly going to go in different direction as we move toward november. All right. So joe just another for president is speaking there in the bronx. He is he is sticking on message. Heres something that he just said a moment ago. It doesnt matter whether you black or whatever color you are. It doesnt matter we are americans and were going to pull together is this just political theater . Well, look, i will acknowledge to share wins point that this is an election year. There is a certain level of pageantry that goes into every election, both at the National Level and at the local level. But it is no different than when joe biden goes down to tulsa and talks about the greatest threat to america being white supremacy, even though he knows hes not going to get the Electoral College votes of that state. He does it because hes speaking to a broader audience that they will be newsworthy, that he is trying to explain to black people writ large, that i care about you. And similarly here with president trump, what you see is somebody trying to say that the political calculus of yes, there has not worked the he is in the poorest congressional district, adjusted for actual income. And yet somehow you have democrats were more concerned with him being there and the conditions that people are living through Public Housing. But where 80 billion behind and natural repairs and they have done nothing when we have arsenic at Dangerous Levels in the Drinking Water in Public Housing and they have done nothing yes. There are plenty of arguments that democrats can make, but dont want to make them. They want to relitigate 2016 and 2020. In the hopes that people will not actually focus on whats happening to them every single and whats happening every single day . Sure. When and as as kristin pointed out, right. She talked to people around that rally today, some work cited some wishy hadnt come right . You. What you would expect, but those she spoke to who were waiting for that rally and supported trump heres some of what they had to say i. Am a staunch trump supporter. 2024, more than any other year. I feel compelled to do it this year. Trump is the best the only man cape which make those changes and he will make attention. Its donald trump, democrats destroyed my city and we need somebody thats going to heat up peoples voice and trumps peoples voice sherwin. What, whats your reaction to that . Theyre willing to speak out and say it. Theyre there they are black and hispanic is this possibly the tip of a bigger iceberg this year . I find it rich than those individuals think that donald trump is going to be some, some kind of way helpful when he is appointed the fewest number of africanamerican judges to the federal bench when his policies have essentially gutted Affirmative Action and actually just him, but the other republicans that support him, which i think is overlooked because we were paul public goods do is they obstruct democratic policies that really seek to have working class people, people of color and black people. But the Republican Party blocks all of that. And so when as African Americans, when we look around our community and we see nothing but democratic elected officials and we see that the trajectory of our lives are not changing. Its easy for us to blame the democrats want to change direction . What the republicans are doing is making it difficult for democrats to put policies in place that can actually help us. And then theyre having us blame the democrats when its actually them in their policy agenda. So joe, right now, trump has been sticking on message as kristen said, and ill let you know if that changes, but in other times, if he has talked about trying to win over black voters he has said because i am in a court case, because theres a mug shot of me. Black people you connect with me. This is what he said and let me just play how he said it lot of people said that thats why the black people like because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against. Weve all seen the mug shot and you know who embraced it more than anybody else. The black population, its incredible. You see black people Walking Around with my mug shot. They do shirts does that. I mean, how do you respond to that . What do you hear when you hear that . I look, i think its a misguided attempt at humor black people not responding to the mug shots. Black people are responding to despair and to my colleagues points, i would agree black play faces in high places. Im not going to be the salvation of black people policy will. And so when i sit here in new york state, where we have close to 20,000 black students in the Rochester Public School system and 16,000 families have tried to the eject button and every Single Person represents him as a democrat and wont allow it to happen. I dont see policies is trying to move people forward. When i look at that as the civil rights issue of our really think hes joking here. I mean, i know he he he gets that theres humor in it, but i think it was pretty serious i think heres the reality. The reality is that we have two men on the ballot, one person who thinks that sneakers and mug shots might help him and the other person who thinks that he has the right at his big old age to tell me that if i as a black man dont vote for him the and i no longer get to call myself black. So it appears to me that we have reached a point in time harm in our politics. We tried to whitewash away the sins of the nonblack candidates when they offend the sensibilities of black america. But we agree with their underlying political ambitions. That becomes the issue here are more so than anything else. Sherwin if donald trump was really interested in according the black vote, because quite honestly theres a lot of africanamericans and people of color that do want Something Different because are not seeing things change as quickly as they probably should. Then why is he talking about gutting the Affordable Care act . And that would take Health Care Away from a lot of people of color, a lot of working class folks, and africanamerican because if you really was concerned about African Americans, he would be having a conversation about reparations hed be having a conversation about how africanamerican properties in black neighborhoods, our d devalued simply because africanamericans live in those communities. I dont trump is never going to mention any of those things that could actually help because he had just engaging in political theater and trying to get us to blame the democrats when it is the Republican Party, just trying to sow doubt in our elections. And we were not going to forget what happened on january 6, that that also should be a warning to a lot of folks again, there is a what youre talking about is a sensible policybased conversation about what is good for black people and what is bad for black people. We can talk about reparations, but there many black people who just watts, california come up with a blue collar commission to agree on a number that governor dan said they were never going to pay. And so what always seems like that old orphan annie, the promises come tomorrow as think were going to have different issues that we care about, but ultimately, having the conversations import and trying to slander either candidate i think is where we get into a take your ball of joe and sherwin. Thank you both very much. I appreciate your being on with me and next, blame the mrs.

This is cnn tonight blaming alitos wife republicans coming to the Supreme Court, Justice Samuel alitos defense, still pointing the finger at his wife after the New York Times reported the alitos blue another different and controversial flag outside their Vacation Home. A flag also flown by people at the capitol on january 6, that is now two flags outside alitos homes, embraced by january 6, insurrectionists. One of the many problems here is that alito has a history of playing and politics according to Financial Disclosure reports, Justice Alito sold a large chunk of anheuserbusch shares, just as conservatives boycotted the company for using a transient gender woman in an ad. He also visibly challenged former president obama during the State Of The Union. Justices are always keep play it straight. He shook his hand and mouth, not true alito accepted a luxury vacation from a billionaire republican megadonor, who would go on doubt cases before the Supreme Court. Alito did not recuse himself from those. And the question now is whether Justice Alito should be on the bench to decide the two major trump cases before the court, which will make history one, about immunity at the heart of the doj election interference case. And the other about charges against january 6 insurrectionists my guess now is the constitutional law professor at harvard, laurence tribe, actual, actually warned senators about alito during his Confirmation Hearing in 2006. Here it is. Im very troubled by his views obviously it follows from that that i would be hardpressed to recommend his confirmation im going to speak to Professor Tribe in just a moment. But first, Manu Raju Outfront live on capitol hill and mano, you have been talking to pretty much everyone there about alito. And what are they telling you look, the reaction has been mostly along party lines. Yes, there are some republicans who are offering the mildest of criticism of daniel alito saying that he probably should have exercised better judgment, but they are quick to pivot and blame his wives aligning himself with what themselves, with what alito said putting this on his wife, this upside down flag, that was outside of his house. Others are saying what mitch mcconnell, the republican leader told me over this week that they should leave, are democrats have leaves the Supreme Court alone. That was the words of mitch mcconnell, democrats on the other hand, say that this shows that in their view, alito cannot be impartial and must recuse himself from these two key cases involving january is six. Now, as i put this question to a number of republicans, theyre making clear though that they are on the line and the side of listen that thats what happened here. Public figure, whether in judiciary, us senate probably not wise, thats a sign of distress. My understanding its my understanding why turned upside down and our country is under a little bit not a little bit. A lot of distress right now as we speak, i mean, look, hes got a flag fetish i mean, good good, good for the fit for the Supreme Court justice now <
