Let s get some of the conversations you might have missed. Some new polling to begin this hour. Vice president, kamala harris, and former president, donald trump, are essentially tied in every sunbelt swing state. According to be a latest, fox news polling, harris leads trump by registered voters in arizona and two points in both georgia and nevada. Trump, meanwhile, leads by a single point in north carolina. All of those results, we should make clear, are within the margin of error. But there are some trendlines here. In previous fox polls conducted before president, joe biden, exited the race, trump led by five points in arizona and nevada and north carolina and by six in georgia. So, charlie, we apply all of the usual caveats, pools are just a snapshot in time, we are two months before the election, but the trendlines do matter. And the path to 270 electoral votes matter and this polling suggests that, with the sunbelt back and play, harris has got options? yeah. I mean, obviously t

Analysis and discussion of the days top stories and compelling issues from Lawrence ODonnell. Beforehand. Rudy giulianis answer to that was, nobody can be sure of anything. With Defense Lawyers like that, who needs prosecutors . So why Hasnt Donald Trump replaced his weak, Tv Defense Lawyer who is doing a terrible job of defending donald trump . Well, there are a few real possibilities and rational possibilities for that. One is that donald trump doesnt know what good lawyering looks like and sounds like.
