So why havent more democrats been able to connect here, particularly statewide and in president ial elections . Well, i think that i mean rather than answer it that way, don, i apologize. Ill answer it this way. I think that for The First Time in a long time in either party, a President Of The United States is putting workers at the center of Trade Policy, tax policy, wages, all that we need to do.

What took so long . Lets go outfront. Good evening, everyone. Im Kate Bolduan in for erin burnett. Spooked by covid. The Dow Tumbling 700 points with fears the Delta Variant pushing the country in the wrong direction. Covid cases are up 145 . Hospitalizations are up 50 . Deaths are up 12 . And those who are most at risk are the ones who are failing to protect themselves and others with the simple vaccination. According to officials, more than 97 of people hospitalized with covid are unvaccinated. 99. 5 of deaths right now are among the unvaccinated. Dr. Anthony fauci telling me today if more americans dont get the shot, things will not get better. Quite the opposite.
