but she throws up smoke and doesn t say it wasn t fair. you can t really compare that. i m comparing, why not? you can t compare that to a president who instigated a coup. is she making them feel better about the election? she s making not just her followers but georgia voters understanding the importance of having their vote counted. i m not sure that s what she s saying. i think she s saying people are disenfranchised. more people voted in the last election in georgia. when you have rules that keeps people from voting, that called disenfranchisement. i m dealing if facts here. more people voted as am i. let me finish. more people voted in the last election in georgia than ever in the history of georgia. you re right. that s exactly right. so stacey abrams show if proof. just because more people voted, david no. it doesn t mean that they re disenfranchised. it means that, for example, me as a latina voter, if i believe
considerable political baggage, the bottom line voters is who s going to win, who will carry forward the agenda that they want? i don t have to tell she knew what democratic victory doesn t make the steak blue or even purple. raphael warnock did beat a candidate who had some problems in 2021. you know, the gop is really solidly focused on winning, and that s the thing that they care about. this time, they re kind of putting their hopes on, frankly, the running back on the history of georgia, rather than what continues to emerge about this narrative with, i guess, 30 days to go until election day in georgia. shannon, all three of us are journalists, we remember a time where stuff like this came out, there would be an apology, an explanation, and whatever the case may be. now there s a whole lot of gaslighting. it goes beyond, that in fact. there was, and i want to read from your reporting, in which he say the media was barred from attending a prayer
i think it s just too soon to say. i would not assume it is going to knock him out. you interviewed trump obviously for your new book and the name herschel walker came up in your interviews. this was before the latest allegations emerged against him. i want our viewers to listen to what trump told you about walker s controversial past. listen to this. in georgia, think about georgia. in georgia, herschel, they did the ballot to herschel. you know how great a football player is? you know he was in university of georgia, he was the best football player in the nation. by far. he s the best football player in the history of georgia. and for the most part, it s true. as a running back, he s a top three or four running back. but he has a complicated persc personal history. ten years ago, maybe it would have been a problem. 20 years ago it would have been a bigger problem. i don t think it s a problem
did that. you know, those are the things that i ll be talking about and i have been talking about. everybody is moving our way. we have great momentum in the race. we ve had two republican governors here in the last seven days and one former governor that are members of the reason governor s association. we have hundreds of legislators and local elected officials that are showing up at our bus stops. we re not taking anything for granted. we have to get the vote out tomorrow. i have the conservative record to beat abrams again. that s what we re staying focused on. martha: what do you think act the fact that more people have turned out in early voting than in the history of georgia elections? is that accurate, first of all and second of all, this is a state that we heard president biden went after the georgia voting laws and said it was jim crow 2.0. what are we seeing on the ground? what we re seeing is what we told people back then.
here, and he has managed in some senses to score a win just by virtue of the fact that he s already had two meetings with joe biden himself and he s had this raft of security meetings this week, first with the americans, then with nato, then with the european union. that s a win for vladimir putin. vladimir putin doesn t have very many cards to play, but he s playing them well, as he has done in the past, and he s getting the west to come to the table. that makes him a player, part of the global conversation, which, by some metrics, he shouldn t really be. russia shouldn t really be. as jeremy says, it s a declining power. and that causes concern too. so, jeremy, i mean, you got the russian deputy foreign minister saying there s no reason to fear some kind of escalatory scenario. you ve got 100,000 troops on the border. you ve got the history of georgia and moldova and ukraine back in 2018 and so it seems like there s lots of reasons to fear an escalatory scenario.
