Philadelphia. Trump is getting ready for the main event, the only way he knows how, repeating some of his favorite lies and insults before an adoring crowd at a rally in central wisconsin, that just wrapped up under an hour ago. This week the former president will work his way out of facing justice when sentencing in his manhattan hush Money Case was pushed back until late november. It now appears none of the former president s criminal proceedings will be resolved until after election day. That leads it to Vp Harris to press the case against trump with the american people as jury. Joining me now, the Senior Adviser to the harrisTim Walz campaign, think of joining us tonight, Vice President harris is in pittsburgh for the next three days as she prepares for her first debate against former President Trump in philadelphia on tuesday. She answered some reporters questions outside the Spice Store in pittsburgh earlier today where she also talked to voters. What are you looking for on Tuesday Night . Reporter well, its great to be with you, i think, as somebody who has been so proud to be working as the Vice President , and obviously before that when she was Vice President , im looking to see the contrast shes going to make with Donald Trump, shes going to show the american people what is at stake in this election and what is on the line, shes going to focus on project 2025, the dangerous policies that are contained in that blueprint for what Donald Trump clearly wants to make the blueprint into law, which virtually gives him unchecked power, he would sack the doj with schedule political appointees who support his agenda, who want to give him all kinds of power that we have never seen in a president before. He wants to eliminate the Department Of Education which would completely got the education system, he wants to get more Supreme Court Conservative Justices On The supreme court. He wants to enact the national abortion ban. She is going to make it very clear that it is dangerous, and you have seen her and you have seen on debates before, you have seen her prosecute the case in the Judiciary Committee hearings when she was in the senate, i know she is taking this very seriously, she is preparing very hard with her team, she is also getting out and hitting the campaign trail, some visits to small businesses in pittsburgh, so she is taking this very seriously and im looking forward to seeing her shine on the Debate Stage on Tuesday Night because she is taking this very seriously because she knows what is at stake for the american people. Donald trump just wrapped up a Campaign Rally in wisconsin, he commented on Yesterdays Decision by new York Judge to postpone from sentencing, claiming the charges against him should be dismissed as Election Interference. Take a listen to trump moments ago. The big news this week was that the manhattan d. A. Witchhunt against me has been postponed because everybody realizes that theres no case because i did nothing wrong. Political witchhunt. It is a political attack against me by comrade Kamala Harris and Sleepy Joe and other radical left opponents for the purpose of Election Interference, this is all it is. How is the Harris Campaign reacting to his new York Sentencing delay . Well, we will let the courts decide this, this is certainly in the court system, it is Up To them but, as the Vice President said, we will beat Donald Trump squarely at the ballot box, that is where this election is going to go, that is where the site is going to be and we are going to beat him on the ballot box. The Harris Campaign announced yesterday it raised 361 Million in august, nearly three times Donald Trumps fundraising last month, 1. 3 Million people gave to harris for the first time, 60 of all donors were women and 20 of the donors were republicans or independents. What do these numbers tell you about the Vice President s movement that she is building . That was three times what Donald Trump raised in august, so a couple of things, Number One i think it shows the fact that this enthusiasm on the campaign trail, the 15,000 people in detroit, nearly 9000 people in savanna which is a huge number for that part of the country, the 12,000 people that we got in philadelphia, we can go on and on about the numbers shes getting. But, that excitement is channeling and turning into grassroots donations, it is also turning into volunteerism. We have a Record Number of people that are volunteering this weekend, knocking on doors. I think we had 200,000 people that have knocked on doors this weekend and done volunteer activities. The Bottom Line is this, when you see those crowds at the rallies, they are going home and making donations to the campaign, they are volunteering their time, knocking on doors, because they understand what is at stake. And when you look at the margins from 2016 and 2020, i worked on Hillary Clintons campaign, we nearly lost by 70,000 votes, i worked with Joe Biden in 2020, this campaign is going to be very close. When you see these grassroots donations, when you see the amount of money she is raising, it really does show the Energy And Enthusiasm and of course those people are turning their energy into action and you were going to see that in this campaign. They announced this week they would donate nearly 25 Million to down ballot democrats, that includes 10 Million for house races, 10 Million for senate races, nearly 3 Million for State Legislation races and 1 Million each to elect democratic attorney generals. What can you tell us about the strategy behind this Acrossthe Board . Well, the Vice President understands that and its a part of her job, also to carry along other democrats that are running in close races across different states because she knows the more democrats she has in this house and senate, the more she has as governor in different races, the more she is going to be able to pass her agenda that helps middleclass families across this country. So it is very important to her and while of course there are coattails that certainly come along with running for president , usually if you do well as president in a certain Party, other candidates in those states also come along with you. But theres no replacing getting money to the Party committees that are working directly with those candidates and with those races. This is something that is very important to her and something very important to make sure that we have more democrats in office across the country when the Vice President becomes president so we can implement that very important agenda. The Vice President is also focus on the issue of reproductive rights, running a Bus Tour of Swing States, what is the response to campaign the campaign has been getting . That is one of the major issues driving the selection, it matters to the voters, it doesnt really fall into a political category, it spans all political categories, so this is something we take very seriously on this campaign, this is something the Vice President is focused on and you are seen all of these incredible female candidates and male candidates that are coming on the Bus Tour, joining us in Swing States across the country to really take the message directly to voters about what is at stake. Going back to project 2025, this agenda is going to enact the national abortion ban, no matter what Donald Trump says. So this is something we want to reinforce, especially in this final stretch of the campaign cycle, early voting starts in a lot of states this month so it is very important to ask when voters walk into the ballot box, they understand what is at stake when it comes to their own reproductive choices and this is not something that just affects women, this is something that affects families. You see a lot of men out there who are joining this tour, who are traveling across the country and it is something you will continue to see throughout the rest of this campaign cycle. Thank you, joining me now is congresswoman susan, chair of the democratic campaign committee, first of all, thank you for joining us and i want to talk about the Harris Campaigns infusion of 25 Million to down ballot candidates, 10 Million of that going to congressional races. Democrats only need to net four seats to take a majority and jeffries would likely be speaker but although according to the political report, the battleground to take back the house is confined to a few dozen seats across the country where neither parties holds a clear advantage. What can you tell us about how this money from Vice President s campaign will help House Democrats the most . It is a big help and also a sign of the Enthusiasm And Energy behind Vice President harriss campaign, support all across the country and she knows that when she becomes president , how important it is going to be to have a Democratic Congress to make sure that we can govern for the american people. As you said, we only need four more seats to take Back Majority in the house of representatives. We are playing in races all across the country, we have incredible candidates and we know when we get our message out, we win. These resources are critically important so we can reach every voter in these battleground districts, remind them what is at stake because this is an election about our rights, our freedoms, democracy and future, we need to make sure that everyone turns out to vote because many of these will be close but we are in a very strong position and i look forward to working with president harris, with the democratic majority and governing for the american people. That covers how this money will help, so lets move onto where and which races are priorities for the democrats to retake the house. Number one, we have to make sure we keep the folks that we have that are in Office Running in targeted races across the country, folks are running strong campaigns and then we have also what we call our red to blue candidates, candidates looking to flip across the country, they are all over the country, states like iowa and nebraska and montana, and alabama. And in districts where the president ial, the Senate And House races are going to be critically important like Michigan And Nevada and arizona. So, we are all across the country, we have incredible opportunities across the country and we are working race by race, District By district, and i think one of the most powerful things that we have is not only the resources but great candidates who are authentic voices for their districts. Folks are tired of the chaos and the dysfunction of the Republican Party, they want folks who are going to come to d. C. To govern and move our country forward and those are the candidates that we have who are going to make a difference and help us take back the majority. The house is coming back in session on monday with yet another looming fight over federal spending. Speaker Mike Johnson is pushing a bill that includes a requirement for proof of citizenship for voter registration. An ad requested by former President Trump that even republicans worry will be rejected by the senate. Leading possibly to a Government Shutdown. This isnt the first time House Republicans have done the bidding of trump. What is going to happen congresswoman . You are absolutely right, the House Republicans are incapable of deciding anything without getting permission from Donald Trump, we know that the fiscal year starts October 1st every year, and yet republicans in the majority have been incapable of moving forward funding bills, they cant even agree with themselves. We need folks who are going to govern and unfortunately, while it may not be surprising, they arent interested in governing, they know if they really want to move forward they should be working on bipartisan legislation to keep the government running, we need legislation that is going to go through the house, through the senate, and president Bidens Desk and this should have been done a while ago. This should be the top priority and unfortunately they are playing politics. Finally, House Republicans are teeing up a series of politically motivated investigations. They include hearings about Vice President harriss handling of the border, governor tim Walzs Connection to China And President Bidens Withdrawal from afghanistan, obviously these are important topics that the Republics Interest in them is only to create damaging headlines for them in the election season. It is not surprising that they continue to go down this path of focusing on politics and not the needs of the american people, we have seen pointless investigations going on this entire congress that have led to nothing and they are continuing that now. They are wasting time and taxpayer resources, time when we have a Government Shutdown in front of us so we dont pass legislation and the american people want us focused on the issues that are top priorities for them. Making sure that we grow and strengthen the middle class, that we address issues of affordable housing, that make sure we protect social Security And Medicare and we defend reproductive freedom. These are things that are top of mind for people across the country. They are not seeing solutions from republicans, that is why we are going to take back the majority and be able to work with president harris and Vice President Tim Walz to move our country forward. Congresswoman, Suzan Delbene , and head of the dccc, thank you for being with us. Next, President Trump will have nowhere to hide when he takes the Debate Stage on tuesday, why he could be in for the grilling of his life, ahead in this weeks discussion. Weeks N U feel like theyve arrived before theyve left the ground. This is how business goes further with tmobile for business. The moment i met him i knew he was my soulmate. This is how busisoulmates. Rther soulmate [giggles] why do you need me . [laughs sarcastically] but then we switched to tmobile 5g home internet. And now his attention is spent elsewhere. But im thinking of her the whole time. Thats so much worse. Why is that thing in bed with you . This is where it gets the best signal from the Cell Tower ive tried everywhere else in the house theres always a new excuse. Well if we got xfinity you wouldnt have to mess around with the connection. Therapys tough, huh . Mmm. Its like a lot about me. [laughs] a Home Router should never be a home wrecker. Oo this is a good book title. On tuesday, Vice President harris and former President Trump will square off in their first and perhaps only debate, Vice President harris has reportedly been getting ready for months, going back to when she expected to be debating trumps running mate, Jd Vance. Former President Trump has been a little less diligent in his preparation. Sure, he has at least brought in tulsi gabbard, rather than simply sparring with his Golf Buddies like rudy giuliani, but trump is famously not a fan of practice sessions and policy briefings, and in the past, maybe it didnt matter. After all, it doesnt take much practice to lie and interrupt and insult your way through a 90 minute debate, but this time, trump will be squaring off against an experienced prosecutor who is wellequipped to challenge him, like never before. Vice president harris will have plenty of evidence at her disposal to lay out the case against trump, there is his record as president when he left behind an economy decimated by the pandemic and resisted the peaceful transfer of power for the first time iN United states history, there are the 34 Felony Convictions handed down against trump by a jury of his peers since he left office as well as numerous other civil and criminal cases working their way through the court system. And of course, there is the matter of his age and cognitive fitness. An issue he wants used against president biden, now being turned against him as he is now the oldest candidate to seek the White House. Earlier this week, while trump was in New York getting his sentencing in the new York Felony hush Money Case, deferred until after the election, i was reminded of how trump and his lawyers decided not to let him testify in his own defense, knowing anything he said on the situation might only make it worse. On tuesday in philadelphia, Trump Wont have the luxury of opting out, Kamala Harris is The One prosecutor Donald Trump will have no choice but to answer to and this time, the jury will be the american people. And there will be no opportunity for an appeal. I gotcha i gotcha i made a promise to my daughter that i would get my college degree. I had 20 years of experience as an hr professional.
