Quote, unquote, strategic campaign travel, no one knows what that means. vice president kamala harris s low profile. his handling of the maui wildfires, and his silence on his own son, hunter biden. he writes with few exceptions we don t see him on the campaign trail. we don t see his vice president making the case for him. he isn t sharing his vision for the future. he is hiding. hiding from the press, hiding from the scandals. hiding from his own incompetence as a commander-in-chief. jason chaffetz check. gianno caldwell political analyst. first of all your response. you can tell he was the chairman of house oversight. it is laid out like a case. it is a good case to present. i know a lot of folks are wondering why joe biden hasn t been campaigning when he announced his intention to run for president. when you look at the numbers, harris, august survey showed
Fair is titled, rebooting ron desantis still leaves you with ron desantis. after weeks of dwindling polls, ron desantis is hitting the big old reset button. turns out donald trump without to personality is not delighting voters everywhere the way tech bros like elon musk thought it might. turns out, make america florida is not the winner of the desantis crew imagined. as governor of florida, he has been a wildly effective autoaccurate, using taxpayer dollars for campaign travel, attacking higher education, fostering a climate ripe for book banning and shutting out the mainstream media. trumpism without trump would be the next logical step forward authoritarianism, and a desantis presidency could accomplish any number of far-right initiatives that the 45th president did not have the attention span to complete. lucky for us, desantis is a terrible politician with negative charisma and the chances of him riding into the white house are looking less likely. no amount of donor dollars can make desantis a maga marionette,
16 past the hour. this could be a big week in the investigations surrounding former president donald trump. all eyes are on special counsel jack smith, who may be moving closer to indicting the former president for his alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. this as the washington post reports former white house chief of staff mark meadows joked about a baseless claim about the dead voters in georgia before he was on a call the president made trying to get georgia officials to overturn the results of the election there. with us now to talk more about this, nbc news correspondent garrett haake and michael moore, a former u.s. attorney who is now a partner at the firm moore hall in atlanta. garrett, what do we know about what s going on inside trump world as we continue to wait for the special counsel s next move? reporter: this has become something of business as usual for the trump campaign having to plan a presidential campaign around their legal calendar, and that s the case this week. the former president has a big fundraiser tomorrow night in new orleans. he s got some campaign travel
Party. the funny thing is, he was right. it s the end of the party as he knew. this is donald trump s political party and says more about what the party has become and what is fundamentally about donald trump. if you want to give the republican nomination, you have to either get complete support of donald trump or get out of his way. trump is leading his other republican primary rivals. he is trailing and one category, campaign travel. he s been have to the cities that rhonda scent this has been to. does he need to stomp on the trail? he does not really need to introduce to voters who he is or who he stands for. you know what, the fascinating thing for me is that trump is basically the incumbent. his popularity among republicans is high, it s as if he has the high even though he lost the office seat. voters see him as the incumbent in the race. when you look at the numbers,

Redemption that she wrote, directed and stars in. she suggested she would be willing to take the stand against donald trump as what it appears to be a criminal trial ahead for him. and garrett haake, you have of course traveled so frequently on that plane as well. been a lot of recent travel. yeah, that s right. the former president has been out once again campaigning he s been traveling around the country. i traveled with him when he went to east palestine, ohio, to visit the site of the train derailment he s a creature of habit on these flights. he does like to travel with a larger group of aides. sometimes family members he s got a couple of personal aides who kind of straddle the campaign versus his post presidency office who also travel with him. i ve been watching the feed here trying to see if i can determine who s with him today a full compliment of agents on that plane with him for the duration of that flight and into
New york city tomorrow where he ll be met by other agents he typically likes to travel with family, senior aides. he keeps up a pretty active conversation in the main cabin he ll watch news coverage. probably watching some of the coverage of himself traveling across the country now he prefers news max after the falling out he s had with some folks on the fox network. i think, you know, on a travel like this, it s a little different obviously from campaign travel, but he will typically review where he s going, what he s doing, what he ll be saying. on a trip like this, i d be curious to see if there are senior campaign aides traveling with him given he s not expected to speak publicly in new york. this has been an open question for me covering this particular element of the story the last three weeks. we re not expected to hear from him until he s back in florida so perhaps no campaign aides on this part of travel plan here.
