The drivein watch party from the dnc could become a model for bigger events, chris. Chris jacqui, thank you, lara trump, welcome to fox news sunday. Thanks, chris, great to be with you. Chris lets start with the breaking news as weve been reporting, the president will be traveling on tuesday to kenosha, wisconsin, the site of the police shooting, why, whats the message she wants to deliver in kenosha . Lara the message is he cares about each and every american. This is a situation where youve seen sadly that throughout this country in democratrun cities the people that are in charge, the mayors to have cities have let their citizens down, theyve not upheld the laws and they have not protected the citizens and they have not protected Small Businesses. The president is going there because he cares about every single american in this country. He wants to make that known and you saw that the National Guard was able to go in fortunately to kenosha and everything was over there, so thank god no more people are getting killed and injured and there arent any violent mobs roaming the streets and that should be the model that i think all of the mayor, democrat mayors that are playing politics instead of looking for the safety of citizens should look at this and say, hey, the president has offered all of us this opportunity and they should take it. Chris lara, you say that the president cares about each and every american. Wile hes in kenosha, will he meet with jacob blake, the man shot 7 times by a policeman or will he meet with member members of the blake family . Lara i dont know if thats on the agenda. I havent gotten the information just yet. Chris all right, both you and the president talked at the convention about the violence, the surge of violence, whether its protests or crime in our streets and both of you blamed the violence on the continuing you said weak response by democratic politicians. Here was joe bidens response to that. Hes rooting for more violence, not less, and its clear about that. And what hes doing is pouring gasoline on the fire. This happens to be Donald Trumps america. Chris now, obviously nobody wants to see violence in american streets but as a practical matter, does the president does his campaign think that this violence in the streets plays to the president s political advantage in the campaign . Lara well, that is not something that we would like to see happen, absolutely not. It looks bad for Biden Campaign because, chris, it took him about 3 months to finally come out and condemn the violence and say that people should stop doing it. The president from day one has been saying this and i will reiterate what i just said in my last answer to you which is that the president has said that i have federal Resources Available to every mayor in every city across the country. We dont want violence in our streets. We want to keep people safe. You dont have safety in your communities, what do you have . Nothing else matters. So i would put the onus on joe biden and say, it took him a little bit too long to come out and say that this wasnt a problem and i think its probably because he knows that da is his base and he doesnt want to upset these people and, so you know what, it was a lot worse for him. Chris well, lets talk about political implications because here is what Kellyanne Conway had to say this week. Take a look. There was a quote today from restauranter in wisconsin, you protestors trying to get donald trump reelected . He knows full stop and i guess mayor pete knows that the more chaos the better it is for the clear choice on who is best on Public Safety and law and order. Chris the better it is. She said the more violence in the streets the clearer the choice for voters on the issue of law and order. Lara yeah, it certainly paints a clear picture. Look, what did we see after Convention Wrap the other night when people were leaving the white house. We saw anarchist mob that was attacking Trump Supporters and republicans, you didnt see that happening on the other side. There was an opportunity at the end of the Democrats Convention where we could have had people attacking their folks, but that would never happen. It only goes one way so if theres one person in that crowd that for a Second Thought you know what, maybe i will vote for joe biden, maybe i will vote for the democrats, i bet their mind was changed very quickly, the people that you see, by the way, getting accosted and harassed in restaurants around washington, d. C. I understand that one of the women was marching with the blm protests. I wonder what she wants to do now as she heads towards november 3rd. I think the point is that the more this happens to people and the more they see that this is a mob, that in effect has been supported and it monetarily has been supported by bailing out violent criminals from folks in the Biden Campaign, people wonder why would i vote for this. I dont think they do and i think they know President Donald Trump is the person that says this has to stop from day one and he wants to see it stopped all around the country. Chris all right, lets talk about the Fall Campaign because we are told that starting after labor day, hes already started, the president is expected to go out a couple of times a week and hold rallies of some sort in key states around the country. This last week on thursday as part of the Republican Convention the president gave acceptance speech on the south lawn of the white house, we are showing pictures of it now. More than 1500 people packed in, very few masks, no social distancing. Lara, is the president going to ignore the Public Health guidelines . Lara well, look, whether we always whether its this event at the white house or Campaign Event we encourage people to follow guidelines and to to what they think is best for themselves so we always have masks available and encourage people to use them and Hand Sanitizer available and we encourage people to spread themselves out but i think you know as it always works out, people always rush towards the front of the stage, they want to be around this president. They pack themselves in and, look, at a certain point in this country, i think we all have to recognize that people want to get back to normal and, you know what, maybe its going to a trump rally that does that but we are always following the compliance. We had Health Professionals work with our Convention Team the entire time. We followed exactly what they said we should do and we will continue to do that. Chris but some Health Officials say the fact is that you did stack the chairs right next to each other. Some Health Officials say this has the potential to be a superspreader event. Lara it was an outdoor venue and folks spitting in faces of people leaving convention that night were not social distancing. It was a disgusting display. The next day there were, you know, thousands of people on the National Mall packed together as well. We either have to say that everybody plays by the same rules or we have to stop talking about it because whenever youre talking about the president s campaign, you know, and how people werent specifically socially distanced but the next day thousands of people on the National Mall and thats not a problem for anybody, that seems hypocritical. Chris lets talk about your speech to the Democratic Convention because you made a very specific appeal to women voters and theres a reason and let me put up some numbers from the campaign. On the last fox news poll before the convention, the president is trailing biden 51 to 39 among women and trailing even worse, 58 to 35 among suburban women. Lara, why does the president have such a problem with women . Lara i dont think its that he has a problem with women. I think its way that he gets portrayed by the mainstream media. I think women specifically, you know, maybe dont like everything he tweets and theyre more inclined to tune in to the 92 negative Media Coverage of this president , but that is why, chris, we have at the campaign are doing everything we can to remind women, dont think about what the president has said or the way he delivered the message specifically, look at what he has done for this country. We have bus tours going all across the country. We started about a month for trump bus, bright pink, you cant miss it across the country and we are out talking about the results produced by the president because at the end of the day, you know, women want to know specifically that the opportunities are available for them. You saw that we had 65year low in womens unemployment since the president took office. You have seen the number of jobs created for women in 2019 alone, 70 of those new jobs created went specifically to women. We have to remind people out there you know what, tune out the distorted and bias commentary out there and look at what this president has done and that is our strategy. Chris lara, thank you, thanks for your time this week and good to talk with you. Please come back. Lara thank you, we will do.

Chris after months of Virtual Campaign democratic president ial nominee joe biden appears ready to make a change. Joining us now biden Deputy Campaign manager Kate Bettingfield, welcome to fox news sunday. Thanks for having me, chris, appreciate it. Chris now that we know that President Trump is going to kenosha, wisconsin on tuesday, there are reports that Vice President biden will be making a Campaign Trip tomorrow. Can you tell us where hes going and what the message will be . Caitlin i will go back to a couple of things that lara trump said and she said that Vice President biden did not condemn violent protests. Thats not true. He came right after george floyd was killed and said there was no place for violence and said it this week, thats simply not true. The other thing that we heard her say, dont listen to what donald trump has said. Well, a president s words matter. They matter. Part of the reason that we are in the state of chaos that we are in this country because donald trump has failed to lead on the coronavirus and failed to take it seriously from the outset and hes failed to be a uniter and felt to lead as weve been grappling of this moment of racial injustice. I wanted to address that from the outset neither of those things were true, but to your question, yes, what i can say you will absolutely hear joe biden addressing in the country and we will have details to share on the location shortly but what i can tell you is that hes going to do what hes been doing across the course of the summer which is calling together people, uniting the country, leading, encouraging people to take on with a sense of purpose. Chris okay. Just wait a second. Well, i will get to violence in a second. Now im thinking in realtime. The president inciting violence . Kate you saw donald trump go to New Hampshire on saturday and say protestors my ass, hes had every opportunity to speak as a leader to this nation thats hurting, to speak to people who are struggling, who are trying to rightly seek justice in this moment but also who are looking around and who are afraid, who see chaos, who see chris answer my question. You said incite violence. Kate absolutely, he has. He has encouraged his supporters to go out to be aggressive. You heard, you were discussing with lara trump, Kellyanne Conway said it, its better for the president if theres more anarc
