Sprinting ahead a little differently. Vice president harris is making headlines with her first half sit down, and Donald Trump is making headlines over his deranged posts on Social Media. And Jd Vance once again is highlighting his bizarre comments regarding those who dont have children. In this one, hes Calling Teachers by Name And Randee weingarten is here to respond. And later as we get underway with paralympics, well show you two of the most inspiring pair olympians ive ever spoken with. Okay. So tomorrow is Labor Day, which for many of you likely means parties, picnics, parades, hot dogs, watermelon, whatever it may be. Its also usually the start of the political season. But this year its safe to say it came a bit earlier. I mean, Take A Look at what happened in the last few months. An Assassination Attempt against the former president , a change at the top of ticket on the democratic side. Its been a lot. We dont know whats going to happen in the next two months. We do know some things about the state of the president ial race right now. A new poll shows harris taking the lead nationally. But more is her taking over in the sunbelt states. Its always going to be one in a handful of states and it shows her winning back young voters, moving from supporting trump by 11 points to supporting harris by 13 points. And also a group of latino voters that trump has been worked on cultivating, that they have moved from supporting trump by two points to supporting harris by 16 points and black voters now support harris by 64 points. Basically this is all good news. What it means is the democrats are coming home. Its also important to remember the race remains close. A lot is happening on the Campaign Trail too. The Harris Walz Bus tour wrapped up last Week Md and the debate between Harris And Trump is in just one week. It appears trump, vance, and the rest of their maga true are still trying to effectively align a line of attack against Kamala Harris. They ceased to do a Sitdown Interview, saying she was hiding from the media, unwilling to take questions. This Week Harris and Walz Sat down with Cnns Dana Bash to do just that. One, i am so proud to have served as President Trump to joe biden, and, two, im so proud to be running with tim walz for president of the united states and to bring america what i believe the american people deserve, which is a new way forward and turn the page on the last decade of what i believe has been contrary to where the spirit of our country really lies. But the last decade, the last three and a half years has been part of your administration. Im talking about an era that started about a decade ago where there is some suggestion, warped, i believe it to be, that the measure of the strength of a leader is based on who you beat down instead of where i believe most americans are, which is to believe that the true measure of the strength of a leader is based on who you lift up. Thats whats at stake as much as any other detail we could discuss in this election. Thats one clip. Were going to show you much more clips and talk to some of my favorite people. Basically to give you a summary, basically Kamala Harris and tim walz talked on border policy, what they would do on day one, who theyd want in their cabinet. They talked about a lot of things in this interview. That should settle the question, right . Everybody should move on and settle other debates of the day . Of course not. The target has shifted. Now the question is not over whether or not she did a Sitdown Interview but whether she did it right. Many are outraged she did it with walz. You can see its extremely common. Ask Barack Obama and joe biden, Hillary Clinton and tim kaine. First of all, trump was reindicted on charges for attempting to subvert the last president ial election. He reposted wildly crude remarks about Kamala Harris on Social Media and shared dozens of other dark derogatory, disturbing posts this week, posts that call for the jailing of people who have tried to hold him accountable, like special Counsel Jack Smyth and the lawmakers who investigating january 6th, ai inches of his perceived enemies in orangeupsuits and Post Qanon issues. We have our two guests here. Tim miller is writer at large for the bulwark. Theyre some of my favorite people to talk politics with, and they all join me now. Molly, let me start with you. I want to play a bunch of parts of this interview. I think its quite telling, especially with the comparison. Let me play what i tell you is my interview, and then well talk about it afterward. I want to ask you about what he said last month. He said you happened to turn black recently for political purposes, questioning a Core Part of your identity. Yeah. Any same old tired playbook. Next question, please. Thats it . Thats it. I mean, i loved that. First of all i thought how she said, hmm, yeah, during the interview first of all. But its interesting because theres a debate Coming Up in just a week. Shes going to be attacked by Donald Trump. Molly, what did you make of that response or how she handled questions about these types of attacks . I thought that was the only way to respond to something like that, right . Why should she have to answer trumps racist smear about her . I mean, that is the fundamental problem with a lot of these questions. The goal of an interview i do a lot, you do a lot the goal is to get information from a person, so when she says, well, this, you know, Donald Trump says this Race It Slur about you and questions your identity, like, okay, thats Donald Trump. It says more about Donald Trump than it does about her. My problem with this interview was i thought the Harris Walz Ticket did actually really well, but if you want information from people, if you want policy, if you want, you know, to know what they would do, the way to do that is to ask real Sub Stan Tissue questions and not just be sort of very republican frame talking points or to ask them to sort of defend themselves against things that are consider that was just an attack on her. It wasnt a question. Theres no question there. She is who she is. Its pretty offensive. So in that moment, i thought she dealt with that as well as anyone could deal with something like that. But imagine if anyone asked me like, are you jewish, im jewish, thats it. If somebody says im not jewish, thats okay, but i am. I agree with you. Thats exactly how she should have responded to that. The interesting thing is shes going to have deal with this more and more as she does more interviews. And also in direct attacks by trump himself. Tim, youve prepped candidates for debates. What do you think about how she did that interview or what else stuck out about that interview . I though it that interview was great and charming, and so i think it was definitely a highlight. I concur on that with you, jen. These interviews are challenging. This nitpick is less about that and more looking forward to the debate. That was she was having to introduce herself, answer. I thought she answered quite well, explaining her revolution on the range of policies and answering for some of the positions she took in 2019 that are different from some of the positions shes taken now. She seemed prepped for that and plain explained it well and she explained about Building Consensus and how you have to build consensus, i liked that. What you do Prep Candidates for is you answer that and pivot to why your opponents terrible. She didnt do as much of that. Maybe that was strategic. In her first interview, she was focused on introducing herself to most people. Thats a big debate. In one example, before that clip, dana said, you havent met trump before. The debate will be the first time. Theres a reason why. He didnt show up because he was pouting like a child and was flying home to maralago to his support cooters. I think there are a lot of things. Youve got to refine answering your question and then answering what about this guy. Thats an interesting question. I do agree with you strategically she wanted to kind of base her own record and answer some of those questions, but the counterpunching, thats a key part of the debate. Lets turn here a little bit to where the race stands now, maria. I listed some of the interesting polling. I think its democrats coming back home when you look at latino voters, black voters, young voters. One of the things that stood out to me, harris is leading lower income voters 58 to 35 . What are you seeing coming into Labor Day and the path ahead . What we found really interesting is right before the convention, she was at 60 . Independents were at 7 . Trump is at 29 . Shes taking away not just from the independents, but from trump. This was before the bump. This was voters in georgia, north carolina, and nevada. We havent covered it enough, but the fact shes giving them a platform to say were going to build more affordable housing, more affordable Rent Controls all the way down the line, thats when we found young voter, black and latinos, housing is the numb berry one issue. Usually it hits you in your 20s through 40s. It speaks to not only who she is, a woman of color and experience, but shes meeting them where they are with their Bread And Butter issues. Its an interesting point. We long talked about it not being about policy issues between harris and trooper. She talked about Health Care issues and latino issues. How do you explain the big swing among latino voters among this poll . What we found is not that people were defecting, but more that they were interested in the third party. It was the latina women. They were aligning, but they needed something fresh. What we found was interesting and this is why her defining herself on this first interview was so important is that people loved her, but they dont know who she is. So shes a blank slate. Thats the best thing for an opportunity for her because unlike hillary who had 30 years of baggage because of the right to find her, this is saying, this is what i stand for. We havent talked about it enough. It makes it harder for the far right and foreign agents to defin her on tiktok and on social Media Platform because shes speaking to them directly. Thats a key point. Fill in the space. We have to take a quick break. Everybody stay with me. Well talk more about the interview, the sprint, and what happens after a quick break. Well also show you a clip of trump talking about Sixweek Abortion bans, and well talk about that too. Bans, and well about that too can neuriva support your Brain Health .

So if you needed another sign to know that Donald Trump has a problem when it comes to women when it comes to reproductive rights, listen to this. In if florida that you are a resident of, theres an abortionrelated amendment on the ballot to overturn the sixweek ban. How are you going to vote on that . I think six weeks is too short. I told them i want more weeks. Youre voting in favor of the amendment . Im going to vote we need more than six weeks. Im going to be voting that we need more than six weeks. Okay, nbcs Dasha Burns was asking him. Now, trumps campaign tried to quickly clarify that he was just reiterating his belief that six weeks is too short and thats not a statement about how he will vote despite what we just heard him say. Look, this is a guy who openly bragged about overturning roe. This weird campaign is doing him no favors in my view. Maria, molly, and tim are all back with me. Okay, molly, to state the obvious, hes got a huge problem here, watching him try to untangle his campaigning. Do you do something with this . What should they be doing about it . Look, trump has painted himself into a corner here, right . He has these antichoice ballots who want a national ban, right . Thats basically their position. You have these members of of the Supreme Court you heard alito and thomas to you the Comstock Act and harris does too to end the mailing of abortion bills. And then you have a general electorate that largely does not like this, and you have Horror Stories coming out of red states about women who cant get Prenatal Care in the first trimester. Its a nightmare for Trump And Weve seen since the overturning of roe its something people have voted on. Its a disaster for hip. Hes going to keep talking about it. You keep him talking about it and harris wins, right . This is a winning issue for harris. Its also like a disaster for women and it continues to be. So as much as it is a winning issue for harris, i take no joy because there are so many women suffered that no. State after state is passing such restrictive laws. Tim, let me ask you. For trump, he knows in his mind his position is not popular, but in his mind he knows evangelicals and others are key to his base. Is there even a place . I mean Mollys Point is an important one, about the impact this would have and continue to have for people across the country. But for him, is there even a place to be . I mean should he just not talk about it at all . Probably . I dont think there is. My colleague Rick Caputo talked about the a word. There was some backlash among conservatives about the fact that he made that statement to dasha, right . Some of them were mad that he didnt you know, he seemed to support this referendum, which prolife conservatives really dont like. The Florida Amendment bans any sort of restrictions on abortions that relate to the health of the mother all the way up till birth. If youre a prolifer, thats a pretty far left amendment. Some were quite upset he seemed to imply he would be voting for it, and thats why he backtracked. Thats why he doesnt want to talk about it at all as you point out. Seems like hes going to have to because of the debate. Because of this ballot initiative, florida has been an interesting topic of discussion, i think, among democrats and political people. And the harris campaign, the campaign is going to theyre launching a Bus Tour in florida. In palm beach, trumps backyard, surrogates will be talking about reproductive rights. One spoke about it at the convention, how she was raped by her stepfather when she was only 12 years old. We recognize a voter by how many register and what states are outperforming. Since she was moved to the top of the ticket, believe it or not, were tied with a ticket for texas and latino voter registration, which is a huge thing. 65 of the people in the registry are under the age of 25. Jen, you and i have been at this for a minute. What she is offering, i think, is unlimited its limited resources, but shes offering a safety, making sure that debbie might have a shot in the event that some other senator loses. She needs colleagues in the senate. She needs colleagues in the house of representatives. So shes saying we have certain donors who want us in florida. If youre going to back us, ill play there too. Thats what shes doing, increasing her map. Thank you for being with me here on a Labor Day weekend. I really appreciate it.

If that wasnt insulting enough, another recent clip now revealed Jd Vance thinks about teachers who dont have kids of their own. In it, he singled out randy winegarder, the teacher in the largest Teachers Union of the country. Take a listen.
