>> well, obviously, he takes it very seriously, but he's going all over the place campaigning. he was in inner city philadelphia yesterday, an amazing thing, right? something republicans don't normally have the backboned to do. you saw him do that in the bronx, in queens, he's doing that all over the country. i'm really proud of him. and the crowds he's drawing and the diversity is incredible. at the same time, make no mistake, this is still cnn, right? this is jake tapper. jake tapper has compared my father to hitler. jake tapper's a guy who would yell at his control room saying turn this man off a when my father's giving press conferences. i can't tell you who these people are. you know who they are, you've seen them before. i saw them as as i walked into a courtroom every day where they're sitting there with grins on their face, i mean, just ear to ear smiles, right? so understand that he's not just going to be debating joe biden, he's going to be debating cnn. i was a guy who never missed a debate, i went to every single one of them. go back to cnn debates in the primaries in 2016, right? it was the same thing. it was attack after attack. they can't help themselves. and you better believe that biden's going to be getting a lot of, you know, a free pass and, you know, you better believe that they're going to hit my father. one other thing i need to mention, maria, it's pretty telling of president who has to go to camp david, in the middle of the woods, and lock himself effectively in a bunker for an 8-day period of time because his policies are so bad that he has to figure out some way to polish them up and try and frame them with all of his top advisers. and i can tell you my father's not doing that. my father's on the right side of these issues and 10 days or 8 days in the woods at camp david to try and explain yourself not american people, i'm not exactly sure if that's a big, you know, showing of confidence. maria: well, i mean, look, you raise a couple of important points. on the camp david situation, i mean, look, the world doesn't stop. we've still got our adversaries, they're coming at us, communist china, iran, you know, russia, i mean, you know? if so for him to take himself out of the is situation and sort of go and holed up in camp david, i mean, we pray nothing happens, that he's not, you know, in the white house. but the other thing on jake tapper, the other day i saw a clip of jake tapper. somebody put it on twitter, i think. and he said to one of his colleagues, you know, let's remember what happened in the 2020 debate. trump brought up biden's family taking money from china, and president biden said it wasn't true, but now we mow otherwise, it was true. actually, biden lied. jake tapper said that. i saw the clip. i mean, i don't think it was made up, i saw the clip. so if he knows that, do you think he would bring up this influence-peddling investigation that the house oversight committee is doing against joe biden? i don't know. or is it the cnn rules that that he won't be allowed to bring up that? because james comer is using words like money laundering and bribery and influence peddling. i don't know, do you think he would bring that up, or would that be against the cnn rules? >> you know, if he's inte lek can chilly honest, he would. but it would absolutely be against the cnn rules. look at the last debate with my father and caitlin collins, one nasty question after the next. he killed it. he did so well in that. i just don't think these people can help themselves. don't forget, maria, and this point often gets lost, remember in 2016 when donna brazile admitted that hillary clinton was given the debate questions ahead of time? like, these games are played behind the scenes. the only person they're not played with is donald trump because the mainstream media absolutely detests him. the good news is the american people love him. is and the good news back to, you know, it's bad news for our country, but believe me, the american people know his eye is not on the ball in terms of china, the middle east or any policy that matters to this country. and that's why he can talk eight days, my father would never have done that, his eye was actually on the ball. those things are out of sight, out of mind for this man. he doesn't know what's going on. look how bad russia a in ukraine's gotten. look how bad the middle east has gotten. look how bad our inflation is. i'm just predicting it right now, our economy is teetering out as we sit here and speak. we've got real problems, i mean, real problems around the world. we're losing our currency, we're losing our standing, we're losing everything. and, you know, the guy's going to be hunkered down in camp david trying to memorize lines to explain horrible policy decisions he's made over the last three and a half years. maria: meanwhile, look, you've got a sentencing coming up for your father, july 1 11th, just a few days before the republican national convention. what are you expecting from this sentencing? >> yeah. well, shocking. the next evening i take the stage at the rnc. go figure that. of all the a dates the judge could have put that, they have to put it before the biggest day outside of an election day in an election cycle? maria, this is planned. and, again, the american people see through all of this. the judge couldn't have picked a day two days later? he had to do it right before? again, it's why people realize that george georgia's a sham, the boxes case can is a sham, and merchan's a sham and the daughter, you know? raising the amount of money that she's been reportedly raising is also a sham and a conflict. you know, the more they, the more they do this, the more the american people see how persecuted, ostracized. and you mentioned in your opening about a african-american if support. you mentioned that certain communities are coming over to my father. it's exactly because of this. they're doing the same to donald trump as they did to so many of those communities for so long. these people are saying, huh, it's really interesting. they did this to us for a long time, now they're doing it to him. i might actually want to vote for the guy,s you know, who'll fight back against this as we have tried to for so long. and i think that's why my father's done so incredibly well, and i think's why some of these inner cities are embracing him to the extent that they are. maria: congressman andy biggs came out with a timeline of meetings that he said took place between the prosecutors that have indicted your father and white house counsel. and jesse watters had a clip on his show the other might pointing to november 18th saying that, first, joe biden comes out and says we have to make sure -- as soon as your father announced that he's running for re-election, a couple of weeks later joe biden come out and says, look, we have to make sure trump never returns to the white house. and then nine days later or a couple weeks later, on november 11th is what jesse said -- 18th, those prosecutors had meetings with white house counsel. do you have evidence that, in fact, there was a coordination with the white house to indict president trump? >> of course. michael coanglo, the number three in the doj, he went, he purchased from washington, d.c. to new york city to prosecute everything that is donald trump. can you imagine if the number three in donald trump's administration, in donald trump's doj went to delaware to prosecute everything relating to joe biden? there would be riots in the streets. the mainstream media would go crazy. of course there's coordination. and beyond coordination, maria, you have the white house logs where all of these people, you know, they're all going in and out, they're all trading notes. of course. this is a coordinated attempt by soros-backed prosecutors in conjunction with the white house. you think the fbi would raid the house of donald trump and mar-a-lago, one of the most famous homes in the world, without asking their boss first? of course they would. this whole thing's coordinated. the american people understand that. maria: wow with. okay. real quick, are you comfortable with the rules that cnn came out with for the presidential debate? are you comfortable with so far the playing field as your father enters on thursday? >> i'm comfortable with my if father. he's got the right message, he's got the love of america behind him, and he's going to do awesome. he always does. he's good to go. maria: eric, it's good to have you. we're all watching, and we so appreciate your time. thank you, sir. >> thanks so much, maria. maria: trump organization executive vice president eric trump. and be sure to tune into fox news' democracy 2024 special coverage of the cnn debate simulcast this thursday, june 27th at 8 p.m. eastern, right here. and now this -- >> as you know, it's been reporting that right now crooked joe's gone to a log cabin to study, prepare -- no, he didn't -- he's sleeping now. [laughter] because they want to get him good and strong so a little before debate time he gets a shot in the [bleep] and that's -- [laughter] they want to strengthen him up. maria: and that's president trump on the campaign trail last night in philadelphia once again in another democrat stronghold. joining me now with more is florida congressman byron donalds who's a member of the black americans for trump coalition. congressman, thank you so much for being here. >> good to be with you. maria: tell me about trump's coalition and what you're pursuing here. we spoke with a colleague of yours this week, i did, on "morning, with maria" who said that he thinks you could get 25% of the black vote. is that what you believe? >> yeah, i agree with wesley. his viewpoint. look, i think right now if you were going to call votes today, president trump's support amongst black voters that are going to actually vote anywhere from 4 to -- 14 to 18. how you get to 25 is you go through the actual campaign, get out the vote effort, direct targeting of media to black voters explaining that president trump's agenda was better for them than joe biden's. and then going through how he's going to get america back on track. that's what black people are looking for today in the united states. 40 no more of the political dogma. it is the actions that come out of washington, it's it is the actions of the president of the united states that matters. joe biden has been a failure. i believe that 25% is very possible. maria: well, are republicans and the trump campaign making the case for themselves? if "the wall street journal" recently writes this: how black voters become swing voters. democrats have left a leadership vacuum, but republicans need to make the case for themselves. >> no, i agree, and that's the part i'm talking about. that work that the trump campaign is going to do, i believe, takes you from that 14-18% area up to the 25% area. look, during the campaign you have to go make your case. you have to make your -- take your message to voters. and it's indicative of what happened in philadelphia last night. president trump is doing that. the campaign is focused, and it's ready to go. maria: well, what if you were president trump's running mate. do you think the numbers would be higher if you were actually the vice presidential candidate? >> well, look, i don't want to predict that, maria. what i will tell you is that stepping into that role, you would have a direct contrast between me and vice president harris in terms of policy, in terms of what it means for the united states of america going forward. and how this would help struggling black families trying to make ends meet, how it would help middle class black families in america achieve higher levels of success. t not just black families, it's all families in our country. that's what the american people need. that kind of message, i think, resonates across demographic groups. and what it would demonstrate is that you have black voters who are shifting in their political thought, are shifting in their politics. i think this november is going to be the opening salvo of, if you will, of seeing that demonstration of movement of black voters, but a lot of voters in the united states. maria: yeah. i saw a couple of tweets from bo nichol as well as ores, four-time ncaa finalist, three-time national champ at a penn state wrestling right behind president trump. let's talk about the debate for a second here, congressman. what are you expecting when the two are up there on the debate stage on thursday? what should we be thinking about going into this important cnn presidential debate? >> well, i think what you're going to see is, obviously, the cnn moderators are going to try to do everything they can to go after a president trump to try to get under his skin. i think what president trump, what he's goinged to do is focus everything back to the terrible biden agenda. inflation, crime, illegal immigration, foreign policy. i think that's going to be the focus. that's where the american people want to sew this -- see this debate basically be executed between these two gentlemen. i don't know how joe biden's going to defend his record because he can't. what he's going to try to do, in my view, talk about january 6th, talk about what happened in lower manhattan. but if you get into the lower manhattan conviction, that's going to demonstrate the two-tiered system of justice that has so many americans frustrated with what's going on in joe biden's america. maria: well, look, we're going to show some of these videos later when i speak with dr. ronny jackson, but the white house seems to be claiming that anytime we see joe biden freeze up or forget somebody's name, that it's a fake video. it's a cheap fake is now -- this is the new buzz word, cheap fake. your reaction. >> no. i think that's all -- that's orwellian language coming from the white house. this is 1984 stuff. the truth of the matter is that joe biden is not the man he was 4 years ago or 8 years ago. everybody knows this. and so what they're trying to do is lie, dissemble and cover up for the fact that joe biden cannot go on the campaign trail like donald trump is doing right now. he has to be in camp david for seven, eight days to prepare himself to be in a 90-minute debate with donald trump? that does not bode well for a man who says he wants four more years. america, this is why we need to change leadership. donald trump is prepared. he has done this job before. he will do an excellent job for the united states of america once again. maria: what about the corruption? where does your investigation in the oversight committee stand in terms of investigating president biden? >> we're still continuing to do our work. we're still subpoenaing, doing subpoenas for additional financial information. listen, the biden family, they went through aches is and and pains to hide this from the american people, to consumer seal all -- conceal all these transactions, obviously, from congress but, frankly, from everybody. so it's taking us a lot of time, a lot of effort to dig up these financial records, but our investigations have not stopped. maria: congressman, it's good to see you this morning. thanks very much. >> thank you. maria: congressman byron donald donalds. quick break, if then texas congressman ronny jackson on president biden's capacity going into the upcoming debate after more public gaffes raising concerns about biden's health. now just 135 days away if election day. but first, fox news senior strategic analyst, retired four-star general jack keane is here on china ramping up aggression in the south china sea as its coast guard damages two of the philippines' navy boats. that's next. ♪ i'm a bee and i bumbled my way into your car. buzz. ah man! and if you don't have the right auto insurance coverage paying for this could really sting. so get allstate. a test or approve a medication. we didn't have to worry about any of those things thanks to the donations. and our family is forever grateful because it's completely changed our lives. maria: do you expect china to go into taiwan over the near term? >> i do. maria: when? >> the next 12-18 months. maria: and that is former reagan administration official roger robinson with me and my new fox nation special called underwriting the enemy. it is available right now for streaming as china's president xi jinping sets his sights on reunifying with taiwan. "the new york post" is reporting that china has purchased farmland near9 19 highly sensitive military bases including fort libertity in north carolina and camp pendleton in san diego. chinese ownership of american f
