Summer Travel Season officially underway. Tens of millions of americans hitting the road for the Memorial Day Weekend. Got off to a rocky start yesterday. 6,000 flights delayed on the east coast. Mine was one of them for seven hours. First lets go to the bronx last night. Im here tonight to declare that we are going to turn New York City around and we are going to turn it around very, very quickly. [cheers and applause] bill quite the political event. New yorkers showing up and showing off for the former president. Bronx rally expected to draw 3500. Campaign says more than like 25,000. Whatever the number, it was a moment to behold in this campaign. Dana has the day off. We wish her and peter the best memorial weekend. Im bill hemmer in new york with my old pal smitty. Sandra . New yorkers coming out in full force for President Trump. His message on the economy, inflation, immigration all seemed to be resonating. Bill its been 40 years. 1984 since a republican won the empire state. Trump team believes it can siphon off support from joe biden among minority voters especially. The sample fact is joe biden isnt getting the job done for the bronx. He is not getting the job done for new york and he is not getting the job done for america. Sandra more from our New York City newsroom. Quite a morning with the cover of the New York Post uptown funk, bryan. Only as the New York Post can do with those headlines. Quite a scene indeed. Former President Trump speaking directly to black and hispanic voters at a rally in the bronx where 80 voted for biden in 2020. He blamed inflation on biden and telling minority voters he would make New York City affordable again. Trump also hit on the migrant crisis. New yo New York State Comptroller says it will cost tens of billions to take care of migrants in this city alone. The millions of people coming into our country, the biggest negative impact is against our black population and our Hispanic Population who are losing their jobs, losing their housing, losing everything they can lose. Build that wall. The Trump Campaign had a Voter Registration table set up. Some democratic voters say they switched their Party Affiliation to republican, including andre. Absolutely. Because donald trump already showed me that he understands our problems, he understands what the country needs, he has the heart to do it, and joe biden and the bidenomics or whatever theyve been saying all these years, they do nothing but talk. New yorks democratic Governor Hochul said yesterday trump was wasting his time in blue new york calling the rally fake but not before attacking his supporters. I will tell you what wont make a difference at all, for donald trump to be the ringleader and invite all his clowns to a place like the bronx. New york will never, ever support donald trump for president. Just a couple hundred counter protestors showed up to the rally yesterday. The Trump Campaign thinks just showing up will make a difference as a 19yearold black bronx native was quoted saying biden didnt come to the bronx, trump is here. Sandra. Sandra bryan, thank you. Bill the State Of Play in the state of new york, empire state. The results from 3 1 2 years ago, joe biden in new york easily beating donald trump by 22 points. All across the state. A lot of those votes come from the five areas around New York City. The choice for president from two weeks ago, the latest poll we found. Biden now single digits, 9point advantage in the poll over donald trump at 47 to 38 . This is what youve got politically statewide. You have roughly 12 million voters here. Overwhelmingly democratic and then the independents and republicans split it even with the rest of them. And dont lose sight of this. There was a statewide race with kathy hochul you just heard from taken on by republican congressman lee zeldin. He got within six points statewide. Just about a year and a half ago. It might be a data point. Not apples to apples. For republicans that looks better than this did back in 2020 and well see whether or not the result of november is closest to this or closer to what zeldin did with hochul in november of 2022. We shall see. Sandra all good info to take in. While all this is happening at the white house President Biden failing to squash voter concerns about his age and mental acuity. He asked reporters to repeat questions at times. Trailing off during answers and misspeaking repeatedly. Peter doocy was watching it all with us. He is live from the white house with more on what we saw. We were covering it live during americas newsroom yesterday, peter. And sandra, i regret to inform you that the days of the long free wheeling Biden Press Conference appear to be over, at least for now because it turns out when the white house says two preselected questioners, they mean two preselected questioners. Thank you, mr. President. Two questions if i may on President Biden no, one question. I will answer your question. You guys never keep the deal but thats okay. That was one of the last opportunities for live q and a before next months debate with donald trump, who revealed something new about the format. They thought i was going to reject it. They said we would like to set up tables so you sit down. I dont want to sit dune for a debate. Lets go. At some point. Were not sitting down. Well be standing up for the debate. The questions were apparently easy enough for the white house to forecast. President biden was able to read big chunks of his answers from printed notes. Mr. President , could you tell me what the African Union is doing as well as kenya is doing when it comes to the humanitarian crisis in the congo . Thank you. And the two reporters from the u. S. Side wound up asking about haiti. White house officials want to try to keep president on message, on singular topics like that. But it will get a lot harder the closer they get to a debate and the cycle and we dont expect to hear much from President Biden about news of the day before the first week of june when he goes to france. Sandra. Sandra quite a few awkward moments that took away from the substance of the presser, peter. Even at some points the president saying that hey, you guys changed your game or the plan. Really interesting as we were covering it. Peter, thank you very much. Bill it was interesting. He is james freeman. Fox news contributor, wall street journal. How are you doing . Good morning to you. I dont know if this is one of these events where you point to several months ago and say that was the time when i thought it was possible. Here is some of the reaction we got from the folks living in the bronx. You said you have always voted democrat. This year it will change. Why is that . Because ive seen the change go for the worse with the bidenomics, with the Democratic Party. Ive been a democrat all my life and donald trump just has the right answers. 60 years old i realize now that we have to support donald trump and make things better. Bill well see where that goes. What were your impressions and what do you think . Is it a reset or not . It could be. You were talking about 40 years ago. Last time republican won new york in the president ial race. I think you are seeing some parallels here. We talked about there was a lot of talk about reagan democrats. Former democrats, middle income people who were fed up with inflation, fed up with america getting pushed around around the world. They went to reagan, gets elected in 1980 and 84 the historic landslide. What you are seeing here is the modern version of reagan democrats. People didnt necessarily grow up voting republican. Cops, construction workers, nurses, people who make this city run. And i think its maybe shocking to some people that you see this kind of support for trump in a democratic strange hold but the polling has been saying this for a while. You look across demographics, the same issues are bothering everybody. The lawlessness at the border, the strain on City Services that are coming from illegal migration, the inflation obviously. I never liked the make am great again slogan. I think america has always been great or stopped being great. Make America Affordable again is something everybody can get behind. This might be something. I agree, you look back. Bill he gave a great line there. The same problems are bothering everybody. Yeah. Its consistent across polls. What is the most important issue for you this election . Immigration, inflation, economy. And it doesnt matter how you slice the demographics. This is whats on peoples minds. Sandra its the policies taking away from quality of life for everyone regardless of party. And it is showing up in the black support for former President Donald Trump. When you look at the Fox News Voter Analysis in 2020 for president it was at 8 , whoa, how that has grown. He is polling with the africanamerican voter support 23 now. That has grown a lot, james. He is basically redefining the Republican Party to be a more diverse party. More of a middle income party. Democrats basically becoming more white, more rich you might say in terms of where votes are happening now. But i think this in the bronx, surprising to some people. I think it is causing kind of a reckoning for people in our industry. You cant ignore it. You have to acknowledge something is happening here and i think for republicans, theyve thought for years that they could compete better for the black vote. Maybe it was just a question of finding the right messenger. You look at polling on individual issues very conservatives. Traditionally blacks have voted democrat and were seeing over those now it will be the third election. You are seeing a change. Bill i want to squeeze this in. Hispanics also is up about 7 . Africanamericans up significantly. Nate silver slices and dices numbers. I think what america goes away for the Memorial Day Weekend it will be a point of conversation if you want to talk politics. Democrats might be better off replacing joe biden on the ticket. If you were really as concerned about defeating donald trump as democrats claim they are, you should be doing everything in your power to maximize the chance to you win. Bill lets make it clear, right . This is joe bidens call. The first debate is before the democratic convention. This is an exit ramp if it is a disastrous night for joe biden. If democrats want to reassess. Thank you, james. Enjoy the weekend. James freeman.
