He said his second bailout to midwest farmers, because of the tariffs on china, was more than china has ever spent on u. S. Agriculture. 16 billion. Our fact checker here at cnn points out thats inaccurate, because just a few years ago china spent 30 billion on u. S. Agriculture. That is the price that American Farmers are paying in all of this. Some of the numbers he was tossing out and also the president s understanding and kind of repeated explanation as to how tariffs work are inaccurate.

Night is senator Kamala Harris. She came out swinging but perhaps more in the first debate she found herself on the receiving end of some jabs as well. There was a clash over the Health Care Plan. And any time someone tells you youre going to get something good in ten years you should wonder why it takes ten years. You will lose your employer based insurance. Under our plan we will ensure that everyone has access to health care. Your plan by contrast leaves out almost 10 million americans. So i think that you should really think about what youre saying. And senator Kamala Harris joins us now on new day. Have you had any sleep since last night . Not really. None of us have. Theres a line from the godfather which i love.
