September 9, right now on cnn this morning i think im the only person in the history of government that got it. Died it and my Poll Numbers went up Brandnew Polling on the state of the president ial race. Donald trump enjoying a bump less than two months out from the election the great debate. Now, just one day away, what both candidates have to overcome in this headtohead matchup. And hezbollah attacking from the north, israel. Now hinting they may be preparing to invade lebanon all right 5 00, a. M. On the East Coast a live look at the Nations Capital on this monday morning. Good morning. Hey everyone. Im kasie hunt. Its wonderful to have you with us. The days were flying by in this president ial campaign are just 57 more until election day, one more day until the next major moment, the first and likely possibly only debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump harris has been preparing since last week. Shes been saying in pittsburgh she will travel to philadelphia later on today over the weekend. She took a little break from preparing she was asked about the debate Tomorrow Night. One thing you want to really get get across a little. Theres a lot that look, its time to turn the page on the device its time to bring our country together. Chart a new way forward so heading into the debate, the race is extremely close. Here is the latest polling, the New York Times Sienna Poll shows trump up 48 to 47 7 over the Vice President that of course means there is no clear leader. This is well within the margin of error. And of course this after they changed the top of the democratic ticket after the first debate, heres how trump talked about that this weekend were run by stupid people, stupid, stupid people and we found that out at the debate with joe. How did that work out . And were going to find it out again on Tuesday Night, is any everybody going to be watching all right. Joining us now to get started on this monday, axios publisher, Nick Johnston. Nick, good morning. Good morning. Wonderful to see you. So obviously this polling, we dont want to make too big of a deal of any single poll, but kind of the way this one is fitting into how were talking about the election is that it seems to suggest that a day and heading into this debate that things may be coming back to earth a little bit for Kamala Harris, that some of the realities of this race are going to remain apparent, which is that it is going to be an incredibly close election. What did, what did you see in these know, i mean, theres nothing that we havent said for the past six months. I dont know if this is a take thats too hot. For 5 00 in the morning, but its going to be a close one, right . Like, what really remarkable to how stable the race has been for the 6789 months, even over the summer, like think back to the summer that we just came out of two Vice President s picked two conventions happened one of them leading, one of the nominees was indicted more than a dozen time, was convicted of a felony. The other nominee dropped out of the race and was replaced. There was an Assassination Attempt and after all of that, were still at a 50, 50 years. Ill give you a scoop for axios am coming out in your inbox and next hour its tossup america, like really digging into the numbers behind this that we are still a very evenly split nation Donald Trump has a base of 45 of people who will never move from him. He has a ceiling, maybe a 47 thats right there in that margin of error. And so what can really move the needle on agnes can kind of give someone a lead of that. We havent seen much this summer the next thing we can possibly happen, like you mentioned, Tomorrow Night, wants to debate for sure. Nick, in terms of Tomorrow Night. So one of the things that we did see in this New York Times poll that ive always interesting is that a lot of people said that they still needed to learn more about Kamala Harris, right . So we 28 of people said they still need to learn more about where harris stands now, 9 of people said that they needed to learn more about where Donald Trump stands, right . So know by now right . I mean, its kind of like where have you been if you havent figured . It kind of where he stands at this point, but it shows you that Donald Trump, we talked about this a lot, that Donald Trump kind of has this ceiling on his support and the question is whether or not harris can get enough democrats excited and out to vote for her, that she can kind of outpaced that obviously through Third Party candidates or and other kind of X Factor in there. But im curious what you think in terms of how this debate and her her being on the Debate Stage, what kind of opportunity that presents for her to do this a little bit of introduction for her, like the polling numbers just said third of americans still a very unfamiliar with her or they havent been seeing her constantly on tv or Social Media like they have for Donald Trump for the last almost decade now. So i think there is an opportunity to provide that kind of contract he has been rolling out more and more policy proposals. I think theres the Policy Policy Page up on the website. Now, finally, were getting a sense of what her administration might look like. And i think youve seen the way she talks about moving away from biden some of the proposals that are a little bit of an evolution to be nice about it, a flipflop and other way to say it from her prior campaign, i think as a way to show how shes a little bit different than Donald Trump. I think theres also a key thing here, and i think we saw that just in Donald Trumps, the way he was talking it as rally a tone and a context changed that is very different from her. And i think thats what the campaign is hoping is that they can get him kind of rattled, act like more traditional Donald Trump his aides do not want them to be which its like contrast on the policy thats a good night for Donald Trump. I think if Donald Trump gets all angry and riledup by her, that would be a better night for Kamala Harris yeah. The New York Times reporting over the weekend that the Trump Team wants to try to recreate that famous moment from one of the debates with reagan where he said, are you better off now than you were four years ago . That would be you definitely policybased in the Kamala Harris policy answers that is to different yourself from biden. Right. And if you go into the cross, have you start to see a little bit of that . How much of the blame for what people are angry about Natalee Ron Joe Biden versus Kamala Harris. And i think what they want to do the Harris Campaign has distanced themselves from biden be the Change Candidate because Change Candidates tend to win. And we did also see in this times polling that voters seem to perceive Donald Trump as the Change Candidate, not Kamala Harris. Think thats what the argument she wants to make. Sure that when tied to remember when Donald Trump goes out the talks about, he said the biden Harris Campaign when Kamala Harris which is we dont want to go back, both of them are trying to get that mantle of what is the next new thing what do you, make of how harris is trying to think about doing this differently than Hillary Clinton did it in 2016. Again, the times reporting over the weekend that they want to stay away from calling him a racist sinema sovereignist, and they want to focus on different things. Shes definitely pivot on those kinds of things which you can ask those kinds of questions. She doesnt want to get into the mud about that. I think theres a little bit of a context of a tone. Right. Can she be honest agency might just a normal person. Remember, weve seen some a president , a former President Trumps events, one in New York last night at the answer is can be kind of rambling. Remember the last debate was what about who has the Mental Fitness . Who is the younger, more spry candidate . Well, they were both pretty old and so Joe Biden lost that race. Will now Kamala Harris is 20 years younger than done Donald Trump. And so i think that might change that discussion about who was the one who has really fit, who is a spry who is giving tight, crisp answers instead of long meandering old Rand Paul ones. I guess we will. Certainly its going to look a lot different than that one we are recovering back in june that really they changed this entire race, Nick Johnston getting us started this morning, nic, thank you.

Now, israel says they are going to reopen three Border Crossings between the West Bank and jordan in the coming hours, they were shut down after a jordanian Gunman Shot and killed three Israeli Guards at the Allenby Crossing On Sunday before he was shot and killed Israels Defense Minister says an investigation is underway and the military is now ready to shift his focus to the fight with hezbollah at the northern border with lebanon normal basil to him last in gaza, we need to achieve our two goals to eliminate hamas and to return the hostages and we are on this matter with all our might at the same time, we are looking at the entire war friends in this means that while you are fighting here in gaza, we are preparing for anything that can happen in the north and moving this center your of Gravity Kennel quick cnns Paula Hancocks joins us now live from abu dhabi. Paula, good morning to you. I hes clearly talking about another major front for israel in what could be a Widening War that is the big thing that everyone has been concerned about. Why does this incident at the border that resulted in these Crossing Closures . Help explain The Big Picture it just goes to show what israel has been saying all along that it is fighting on multiple well fronts, that it has threats coming from multiple fronts. So not only gaza, but also the northern border, fighting against hezbollah in southern lebanon. And now you have this attack that happened on sunday and day where you have a jordanian, a Truck Driver who apparently had been through this Crossing And Number of times before taking commercial goods from jordan into the West Bank. On this occasion though, hes stop the truck, he exited and he started shooting, killing three of the guards on that border crossing. Before he himself was killed by an israeli garden. Now jordan says they believed that this was a oneoff he was acting alone and there is no wider conspiracy here. They say theyre investigating at this point and they do condemn what happened. His family, though do say that they were shocked at what he decided to do. But his brother pointed out that he had become very angry at what was happening in gaza. So he believes that the Gaza War may have been a motivating factor. And thats really what we are seeing that a number of these different fronts that israel is fighting against at this point. All do come back to what is happening in gaza now, its being condemned widely. This attack, israeli Prime Minister calling the attacker or alone, some terrorist, and weve just heard in the past half hour or so that those Crossings Wont be open today. Now, they are pushing them back till tomorrow, obviously wanting to make sure that they can secure three Border Crossings that come in from georgia kasie. All right.
