get it at four imprint.com in brynn for certain the cnn presidential debates june 27th, nine live on cnn and streaming on max it's monday. june 17. right now on cnn this morning. >> biden and trump, according votes and cash on the campaign trail, it's the first debate less than two weeks away israel prime minister benjamin netanyahu dissolving is six member war cabinet insisting it does not need to exist in over 1,000 people forced to evacuate it is a raging fire north of los angeles continues to spread out of control 6:00 a.m. here in washington, here's a live look at the white house the morning, everyone. >> i'm on a rod. you in for kasie hunt. it's great to be with you. we begin with president biden warning americans not to vote for donald trump while donald trump wanting black americans not to vote for joe biden a busy weekend for both candidates, raising cash according votes, which is ten days to go before the first presidential debate right here on cnn. president biden attended a big money fundraising at a star-studded event in los angeles, warning a second trump term could mean a hard shift further right? for the supreme court the next president is likely to have two new supreme court nominees, two more, two more he's already appointed to that have been very negative in terms of the rights of individuals. >> there's this be good, this be the scariest part of all of it? >> well, i think it is one of the scariest parts of a look. the supreme court has never been as out of kilter as it is today now, tom spent part of his weekend in detroit trying to exploit signs of waning enthusiasm for biden, among some black voters the crime is most ramp and right here and in african-american communities, we don't want to get robbed and mugged and beat up, or killed because we want to walk across the street to buy a loaf of bread. but the black population wants law enforcement more than any other population. >> all right, let's bring in david from staff fighter with the atlantic. jesse hunt, former press secretary for the national republican congressional committee, and former white house communications director kate benningfield. good morning. thank you all for being here, kid. i want to start with you about just trump's trying to win over black photos just to get a sense and son for the viewers remember, how black verde's voters came down for biden in the 2020 election, we exit polls there, showed that i won overwhelmingly 87% to 12%. >> biden versus trump. >> and then you bring it down. it is much tighter. where the margins according to public polling, right now how much concern is there in the biden camp right now that the margin is getting tighter? yeah. >> look, i think they believe it i can do they believe those polls? >> do they believe those poles is maybe a little bit of a tricky way of framing it i think they certainly believe their own data, and i think that there's a recognition that the base is not as solid for biden as it was at this point in 2020. i think they're very eyes open about that. you can see that in the way that they're campaigning. i mean, you can see they've done a lot of work to put together outreach efforts to black voters. you see their spending, if you want to know probably more than or did they were investing earlier. >> but also if you want to know where it campaign is focused, look at what they're putting their dollars and they've done a lot of advertising to the black community. so they, they know that this is needs to be a signif, they need to shore these numbers up. this will be a significant piece of his winning coalition if he's reelected. so i think there's definitely an acknowledgment. i don't know that the public polling i don't know that they believe the public polling as it stands right now, captures where things will be in october than the first week of november when people are really facing the choice of going into the voting booth and choosing joe biden or donald trump but they definitely recognize that this is a space where they need to keep doing work mark and i think you're seeing them do that in just to get us viewers are listening to, listen to what trump was saying to voters in michigan as he is trying to attack joe biden and his handling about issues affecting the black community biden wrote the devastating 1994 crime bill was talking about super predators that was biden. >> he walks around now talking about the black vote. he's the king of the super predators i mean, even actually coined the phrase the super better drives, but is that, is that an effective strategy? >> if, if trump were making inroads into what the black vote, in reality, and not just in bad poles. you'd expect to be able to get some people to show up for him in detroit, but he couldn't that he created was mostly white adria entered a completely fake media event rented a church, he bussed in people who are wearing not church clothes, but rally close. they are obviously not locals. they're obviously not attendees. you don't have to do that. if you have support and then he told a series of postural lives detroit has recovered this year having a magnificent turnaround first population growth and half a century, lowest number of homicides and half a century. >> that fate notorious derelict train station. i broke into it about ten years ago to tour the ruins of the train station and de it was a tragic thing, is just been restored beautifully and it's about to reopen. detroit is now magnet for attracting new artists it is, it is a great american turnaround story so when you have to tell so many lives, when you have to bus and people, it tells me you probably don't have a lot of indigenous support in that town. and that tells me that probably these pools are reflecting kinda disaffection with people are bearing the brunt of price rises, but trump just lies all the time. and we have to be very careful because, because of the code of our profession and it's a good code where the candidate speaks and you report it. but when you've had a candidate who lives all the time, i mean, it raises a question that cnn is going to face with this coming debate, which is you're going to have this unprecedented event. you're gonna have a president, the united states, on a stage with a convicted criminal. i worry about the security implications of that. are you going to do some kind of special pat down to make sure? isn't brought some kind of weapon with them that might harm the president. he's a convicted criminal on this age of the president, and he lies all the time. >> well, i would just get back to the discussion that is you're raising about his pitch is not effective. one to black voters, but trump is trying to doug bug crime, talking about immigration russian as a way to win over that key voting bog. what do you make of his argument? >> it will i think honestly it take to kate's point like the proof is in the pudding. clearly the biden campaign is little concerned about the slip that they've seen among biden standing with minority voters black voters i think it's quite appealing. obviously, the issue that's top of mind for for every voter regardless of their demographic, is inflation cumulative inflation under joe biden, is that almost 20% that's not something that any working class american wants to deal with. and i think that's what's fueling some of the support for trump as it relates to these specific topics. there was a recent poll that came out from cbs that showed a that over 60% of voters hispanic voters in general supported trump's immigration policies over 50% of hispanic voters support trump's immigration policies. so i think that's something that's a lot of minority voters are directed to. and clearly it's working. >> i also think the super predator line of attack is sort of a bizarre one for trump bright. first of all, i mean, to your point, that's super predator is not a term that the joe biden coined, but also it's a line of attack that is less but it's rooted in the crime, the crime balle, which trump and republicans tried to make a divisive issue in the 2020 campaign in a moment when people are concerned about crime focused on crime, trump is sorted. this is sort of a weirdly discordant argument. argue that like joe biden, who authored the crime bill, which by the way was effective and bringing crime down at a time when trump himself is trying to argue that he's the law and order president i'm not sure that the super predator line of attack, it really sticks or has any intellectual consistency. but i guess that's never been done with trump's concern, has 319902014, we saw the steepest reduction of crime in american history by 2014, we probably had the lowest crime rates in the history of organized american society unfortunately, after that, things we've got things went wrong and especially under donald trump, we saw the steepest increase in crime in an america since the 1960s the trump years saw a terrible crime wave, partly because of lax gun, gun laws and their 2020. we saw more guns bought in a single year than ever bought before in american history. the good news is, since trump left town the crime rate has begun to come down. and this year it's coming down very dramatically. so donald trump, look, donald trump's genius and he does have one as he's the world's leading marketer of crap products anybody can sell a good steak he sells at terrible steck anywhere because all the good vodka he sells a terrible vodka and he's doing let me let now he's the guy who presided over the steepest increase in crime since the 60s is saying vote for me, i'm anti-crime. the guy who starts saw the steepest increase in the number of guns out there saying, i will make you safe when you go what buy a loaf of bread, if you're in danger, you're probably danger from a gun that was bought under trump stolen under crump, and is now being used against you they knocked over by water, has an attorney to go real quickly just are biden or trump and well, i'd say, first of all, like the spiking crimes you saw was predominantly under democrat run cities and democratic policies that they were implementing on the local level. i'd also point out that it took burning cities took a massive spike in crime in these cities that we're talking about to get democrats to wake up. they saw the polling and started to course correct? i don't necessarily think voters are interested in somebody being reactionary de, at, the end of de, of course it depends on the voters are going to feel come november, we're going to talk much, much more. we have more to get to next chile mornings from steve bannon, if donald trump we takes the white house plus evacuations near los angeles as wildfire continues to spread and donald trump bragging about his mental fitness while confusing a key point wednesday, cnn celebrates june rage, juneteenth which performance is by john legend, eddie lewbel, smokey robinson. we still have a lot of work to do. >> juneteenth celebrating freedom and legacy wednesday and cnn when the saw dust settles and the engine finally roars, the thing you care about most is the job well done but when you get your tools from harbor freight, something about the job feels a little different. your wallet because we believe no matter what you're working on you need high-quality tools. >> a great price and that's what we're all about whatever you do, do it for less at harbor freight your best defense against erosion and cavities is strong enamel. nothing beats it. i recommend pro enamel active shields because it actively shields the enamel to defend against erosion and cavities. i think that this product is a game changer for my patients. it really works what a theory i'm exposure, right?

>> fred fuel up to her uncle's unhappy. i'm sensing an underlying issue. it's t-mobile. it started when we tried to get him under a new plan. but they they unexpectedly unraveled their “price lock” guarantee. which has made him, a bit... unruly. you called yourself the “un-carrier”. you sing about “price lock” on those commercials. “the price lock, the price lock...” so, if you could change the price, change the name! it's not a lock, i know a lock. so how can we undo the damage? we could all unsubscribe and switch to xfinity. their connection is unreal. and we could all un-experience this whole session. okay, that's uncalled for. there was a promise on america will appear strong enough if you're tough enough you can make what's out there yours. i think horizon is all about that horizon an american saga have human 20 pretty are i've got to know him pretty well and i had absolutely no concerns about his cognitive ability or his his is a neurological functions. the reason that we did the cognitive assessment is plaintiffs simple because the president asked me to do it. he came to me and he said, is there something we can do a test or some type of screen that we can do to assess my cognitive ability that was former white house physician now, texas congressman ronnie jackson, talking about the cognitive to st. gave former president trump in 2018. now, over the weekend, trump challenge president biden to do the same right before confusing his former doctor's name i think you should take a cognitive tests like i did. i took a cognitive test and dark ronnie dr. ronny johnson. does everyone know ronnie johnson, congressmen from texas? he was deemed white house doctor and he said i was the healthiest president. he feels in history as ronny jackson, nod to thompson my battles back. >> okay. what is your reaction to that? >> who among us i mean, look i make mistakes. >> i make mistakes. but you do it when you're ridiculing the cognitive the ability of your opponent that's different yeah. >> certainly a fair point but i do think honestly the biggest tests that we're going to see is this debate that's coming up, right? this is the earliest presidential debate, general election debate that we'd ever seen, at least in modern memory. so in terms of cognitive test or whatnot, the proof is really going to being how each candidate handles himself on the debate stage when they're contrasting ideas with against each other and seeing who performs the best so we'd have a true test coming up in the next week or so go ahead no, i broadly agree with that, but i mean, look, the entire the entire thing is preposterous, like the fact that you have donald trump up here are going to take a cognitive i've asked my dear, dear friend whose name i can't remember or accurately repeat while i'm trying to dunk on joe biden. i mean, it's like it's embarrassing honestly. it's embarrassing. it also shows the futility i think of this line of attack. i mean, people see joe biden, they saw him on the world stage. they saw him at the g7. you had the eu had the chancellor of germany talking about how sharp biden is driving the allies forward as russia is on the march. i mean, these are, these are, there are serious people attesting to biden's capability in the job. and then you have donald trump up arguing that they should take take a cognitive test and it can't even remember his doctors. it's embarrassing. >> well, as of course will assess that it comes. >> we all admire the us navy. so when you put a clip of someone in a naval uniform on television attesting to the mental fitness of donald trump. of course, we believe it, and only some of us will remember, wait a minute. was that the guy who was busted from admiralty captain because of alcohol and sexual misconduct. was that the guy who as white house doctor was prescribing dangerous drugs at a rate, 10100 times ever before seen in a white house, i worked in the bush white house. the idea that i would go to the white house doctrine, say, give me opioids unimaginable, but lots of people including maybe the president we're getting massive quantities on pressing certain quantities of drugs from that doctor's office. that was the doctor who signed his name to obvious lies, but trump's height and weight we can all judge height and weight. anyone who was speed to a county fair, and we can see that donald trump is not a prize heifer but he signed his name. so it is amusing that trump can't remember his name, but it's it's alarming with that person said and we when we play the clip, we have to have the contexts that is not a person whose word you can take. and then let's say, i mean, it's all about expectation setting and trump keeps adding these very low bars about joe biden. joe biden may easily clear those bars in the debate. what we're going to have to jump in more about this much later in the show. i assure you i hadn't what vp fraud rucker, jd vance just said about being donald trump's running mate plus another rough foul against caitlin clark are the five things you have to see this morning the cnn presidential debates, june 27th, live. >> i'm cnn and streaming on max you know what's brilliant think about it. boring is the unsung catalyst for bold. what straps gold do a rocket, hurdles and into space? >> boring. >> boring makes vacations happen, early retirements possible, and startups start off because it's smart, dependable instead. all words you want on your bank for nearly 160 the years pnc bank has been brilliantly boring. so you can be happily to fill which is pretty and boring if you think about it from medium rare well done so many ways to save life, ready, while it happy, that's 365 by whole foods market, kim, the riva support your brain health. mary janet, hey eddie, know, fraser, franck, franck, bred. how are you fred fuel up to seven brain health indicators including your memory, joined the neretva brain health challenge at bomba were obsessed with socks, ties and underwear because your basic things should be your best things. >> one purchased equals one donated
