which keep our loving the 43-year-old pop singer to police at the time of his are being stopped to a vet. he only had one martini when he was arrested. his next virtual court appearance is scheduled for july 26, hello again, everyone. >> thank you so much for joining me on fredricka whitfield a dangerous he waived is growing across the us, leaving more than 100 million americans are under heat alerts. this weekend, many cities including washington, dc, could eclipse record temperatures over the next three days with highs in the upper 90s, even triple digits. joining me right now, cnn correspondent polo sandoval is joining us from brooklyn, trying to keep it cool there. and meteorologist lisa rafah from the cnn weather center in atlanta. good to see you both. all right. polo, you first, how are people handling this heat it's so hard to escape this heat. >> fred, especially if you don't have any air conditioning, of course for some of the youngest of those roughly 100 million americans that are affected by somebody supervisory. this is how you do it basically turn some of the water features and waterpark's throughout the region here to try to stay cool. again, you're looking at it role of 100 million people that are affected by this for yet another day. and that is why authorities in this opacity is up and down the northeast are stressing the importance of staying hydrated, staying cool, and also this is keep checking on the elderly, checking on the most vulnerable there are still many states where a large percentage of the population doesn't even have air conditioning because these are temperatures that there is simply not used to. and that's why speaking, there's a taxon when you see temperature in the high 90s, you may see it as just another sommer de, but for some of people, especially the northeast they're not used to this. that comes with the deadly potential that's why you seeing cities like new york and other regions are opening up this cooling centers for those people who you need them. washington, dc today expected to inch closer to triple digits. so the mayor, there is extending that heat advisory into next week are very similar situation just playing out in the state of maryland. >> my goodness. all right. it isn't serious heat indeed, elisa, in the weather center, how long is it going to be like this? >> i will see that key to new york city lasting through the weekend by a monday, a cold front does start to break down some of this heap. you can see the alerts stretching down the i95 corridor from new york to philly and washington, even stretching a backup towards cleveland. >> and we've had a pretty hot month. >> we've had heat alerts and effect every nearly every single data last 30 days. and we have surpassed the average from last year the other day, we had 120 million people under heat alerts. so just again, incredible widespread long heat wave will continue to find temperatures above 90 degrees for at least 80% of the lower 48 as we go when to the week, more than 250 records could fall. daytime highs and overnight lows will get at temperatures for today, 98 degrees and washington, dc, 94 in raleigh, 95 and little rock temperatures stretching into the 90s, even down to atlanta. this is area that we're watching where we've got temperatures that could climb up towards 100 degrees and philadelphia, dc, and richmond bulk abide by monday, you see these temperatures getting back a little bit closer to average in some of the middle and upper 80s that says that front comes through and district to bring some of the relief. we're not really seeing too much relief on the overnight temperatures. look at the overnight lows, 80 degrees can be your overnight load tonight in deed do you see so just sweltering with these temperatures in the middle and upper 70s, not really getting that relief at night. and when we do know, is that especially these overnight temperatures tend to warm when we're looking at climate turns faster than the daytime temperatures, with the map load you'll see that the overnight temperatures are about four to five times more likely because of climate change just again, continuing to swelter fred, my goodness. >> all right. it's gonna be a very long summer, at least a rafah of all the thank you so much. >> all right. we're now just five days away from the cnn presidential debate between president joe biden and former president donald trump. both candidates are getting ready in their own ways for biden, he is holding intensive discussions, preparations with trusted aides at camp david all weekend long while sources say trump is participating in private meetings dubbed as policy sessions with top of vice-presidential contenders senators, and other allies next week's debate could be a pivotal moment for both campaigns as the latest fox news poll shows a neck-and-neck race we've got team coverage any moment now, former president trump is set to speak at the faith and freedom coalition in washington, dc. and that's where even mackenzie is. but let's get started with kevin lip dac, who has more on how president biden is preparing for his debate. and he's doing so at camp david yeah. >> in that camp, david setting, president's always choose it when they want somewhere secluded, somewhere free from distractions. and that certainly the case for president biden as he enters this intensive multi-day stretch of debate preparations out there. we do know that even before he arrived, he had started going through these binders his aides had prepared really trying to crystallize the policy differences between himself and president trump going through potential questions potential answers, trying to fine tune some of his responses has retorts and you can expect that the president is doing that in these early days of debate prep. >> one thing that we did hear from a person who is familiar with the debate preparations is that president biden really wants to be punchy in this debate. >> he had been really ramping up how he had been going after president trump over the last several weeks. and we do expect that a tick carry through on the debate stage on thursday night. one of the things that the campaign really hopes to do in this debate is what they say is hold trump accountable for some of the statements that he's made over the course of the campaign, whether it's saying that he wanted to act as a dictator taking credit for the overturning of roe versus wade. all of these things that trump has done that trump or biden a very much wants to emphasize and wants to underscore for the audience, which may be tuning into this race for the very first time on thursday night. and i think when you really boil down the debate strategy is to present this choice to voters it is either biden or trump and that they will have to make that decision in november. and it was interesting to hear the vice president kamala harris kind of describe that strategy just yesterday. listen to what she said joe biden and this debate will make clear the contrast in of the many issues in our country and our world that are complex and nuanced. >> november of 2024 is binary and when you look at the difference, i would ask people to really imagine what the world will be like on january 20, 20, 2025? >> now one of the things that aids typically do before debate as steady the tape of the opponent and you can expect that biden's aides are doing that as well. one thing that they're not sure if it's which version of trouble show up on the debate stage on thursday night all right. >> i kevin, thank you so much. let's go to even mechan now, they're in washington, dc trump is expected to speak soon. >> all right. so tell us about his strategy and preparation so fred, hopefully you can you hear me above the praise and worship and that just took the stage. >> but listen to trump strategy really seems to be de down play. the need for him him to debate prep at all. he's out on the campaign trail this weekend. really projecting confidence ahead of this critical match up. we also know that he really feeds off of the energy of his most devoted and loyal supposed supporters. and they no doubt are here at the face and freedom conference another thing fred, you can ill afford to lose time on the campaign trail that's why we see him out here in dc and in philly, this weekend, which just a few weeks ago but where week after week. he was in the courtroom before ultimately being convicted in new york, losing precious time to make his case to supporters we know what the former president really values are rhetoric over substance. and so he will have the opportunity to hear two perhaps test out some of the rhetorical gimmick. he might have planned for the debate stage. he has engaged in some policy discussions though about a dozen with some of the vp contender it's an in those conversations, we know that he has been sharpening his message on abortion and foreign policy. but what he is perhaps expected to really focus on in the debate is needling president biden over this issue of inflation, the economy, and the cost of living all right. >> even mckinnon and kevin lip deck. thank you so much. >> are let's talk further about a debate preparations taunting me right now, i'm like gold genovese. >> he's a political analysts and president of the global policy institute at loyola marymount university. his book, the modern presidency, six debates we define the institution is out now, michael greatest ceo thank you so much. >> great to be here. >> so historically speaking, how important is this first debate in a presidential election and especially as you saw in one of the poles earlier, it is neck and neck are very tight race well, the first debate is by far the most important. that's the one that generally speaking, people will tune into whereas in other debates audience numbers will fall flat and so rule number one for this debate is don't shoot yourself in the foot history tells us that very few times we'll candidate win a debate. but more often they're likely to lose a debate. how do you lose a debate some kind of gaffes, some kind of flub and so the temptation and the debate is to try to hit a home run, to go for the big one better strategy is to try to hit singles and make sure you don't strike out because the biggest and most important thing is don't lose and don't shoot yourself in the foot so i'm hearing you say don't even take too many risks i think that's that's right. >> if you're way behind taking a risk is important and it might be useful. but in a neck-and-neck race, you don't want to say something that we'll come back to haunt you. what will be the headline tomorrow after gerald ford's first debate with jimmy carter the headline was ford fumbles if that happens here to either candidate, then the whole tone of the race takes a big shift. okay. >> and something else that's going to be unique about this debate is it will employ several rules that we haven't seen before, and we certainly didn't see the last time these two squared off. so notably, there will be the no live audience microphones will be muted until it's the candidates turn to speak as a refresher. here's what it looked like when these two men met back in 2020 2022. >> question the question justice, rational left would you listen? who is on you? i'm not here to call out his lies. everybody knows he's a liar. do you know joe? i ran because of you? i ran because of barak obama because you did a poor job. he racist you just the worst, whereas america has ever had, we can't lock ourselves up in a basement like joe does. it's hard to get any word in with this clown okay. >> so in that case, perhaps you saw both candidates shooting themselves in the foot a few times. but now it's a whole new ballgame, a new debate stage, new rules, all that do you see these new rules as helping one candidate more than the other? >> i. think they give joe biden a slight edge number one, turning off the mix is going to be big because donald trump loves to be the bully, loves to be the strong man, loves to interrupt, set the tone, dominate it's kinda the wounded manliness that you tried to impose and so he won't be able to do much of that. the second thing is not having an audience is going to help joe biden because trump feeds off as your previous reporter noted, feeds off an audience gets excited by them, gets energized by them he feeds off of them and they won't be there. so if he's tells one of his snarky jokes or make some rude comment. the audience if it's there, we'll go. yes. yes. applaud. and without an audience that could fall flat and really be embarrassing to donald trump okay, and then there's the coin flip that already happened. >> biden's campaign chose to select the right podium position while trump will speak last during the closing statements. so how impactful all or either one of those decisions in your view i think going last, it might be of importance and might be useful because if you can then digest and then talk about what happened the previous 90 minutes if you've made a mistake, corrected, if you had some strong arguments reinforce them most of the time you see the last final statement to be very scripted this might be one where you might want to go off script and it might be very beneficial. and what's, what the right side of the stage, i mean, is that is or some subliminal messaging there i saw that and i thought what's the big deal? i don't know the big deal unless it's one of comfort sometimes you feel more comfortable when someone's on one side or the other, or what when the position i don't think it really has a benefit either way unless it's personal. i think in that case, biden may have said, i really want him on my right side, which is where he was last time. >> all right michael genovese. >> it. thank you so much. of course. we're encouraging everybody to be tuning in on thursday because there's no other place that you want to be except right in front of your television. or perhaps you're watching on your phone the cnn presidential debate, right here on cnn coming up june 27, but 9:00 p.m. eastern. and of course, because you've got to follow an ipad, whatever else, it's streaming on max as well all right, still to come russian president vladimir putin threatening to arm north korea if the west continues to supply weapons to ukraine, why the us says this could destabilize the region cnn newsroom brought to you by progressive, get a business insurance quote online in his it's a little is six minutes visit progressive commercial.com when you're a small business owner your to do list can be a log that's why progressive makes it easy to see with a commercial auto quote online. so you can take on all your other to do it's already did see if you could say that progressive commercial.com did. >> i read this did i get x where?
