Good to be with you. Im katy tur. This morning when nikki haley announced she was dropping ouch the race, a huge swath of voters got thrown back into play. They followed four distinct buckets, the ones who will never vote for donald trump, the ones who grudgingly will vote for donald trump, the ones who are willing to switch over to joe biden and the ones who will throw up their hands and stay home. It is that third category, the ones willing to switch that both sides will now try to win over. What are their issues and what will the candidates do to get them . Joining us now from charleston, south carolina, nbc news correspondent ali vitali, and in west palm beach, florida, covering the Trump Campaign, nbc news correspondent, garrett haake. So ali, you have been talking about the haley voters, what they like, what they dont like. What theyre looking for, this is from voters in utah, gathered yesterday. Thats a really good question. Its probably going to be biden just because its been f
Have seen in the Biden Administration toward Bibi Netanyahus government. With Vice President Kamala Harris publicly, anyway, leading the way in what is a break with the netanyahu governments policy, the Vice President yesterday unequivocally called for a ceasefire in gaza. It seems like a very important turn in the way the administration is handling this. Yeah, and, i mean, theres all sorts of interesting Politics Around it, but to me its signaled that i dont think the white house would be doing that, i dont think Vice President harris will be doing that if that was something that was impossible, at least that is sort of what my heart leapt to what i heard her say it, that if she is saying that, it must mean they think that it can happen. If they think it can happen, god hopes it will. We are just going to roll the tape later of what the Vice President had to say. She had a lot to say about it. Were going to see that later in the hour. Well, yesterdays republican primary has become the
Florida. Now a Magistrate Judge would have to him to enter his plea at its root what the arraignment is it something fundamental to the rule of law and our constitutional system. You are given a right to hear the nature of the charges against you. The other thing that happens if they decide the conditions of your release. Trump is not expected to be put in jail ahead of this trial, but there will be discussion of the terms under which he is released on his own recognizance. That happens in his federal indictment in florida and we expect that will happen again today. That part of the process is somewhat unpredictable. You never know exactly what the judge will want to talk about. We will know about it as soon as we are allowed to. As we said, cameras are not allowed. We will have no live feed as it happens. Nbc is lucky enough that our reporter is one of the few reporters who have been given a seat in the actual courtroom. We will talk with garrett once it is over. We will also get disp
This time than what we might have otherwise been expecting. If the allegations in this indictment are proven Beyond A Reasonable Doubt and a jury convicts some of these crimes, history will not ask, wow, how did america get to the point where they indicted a former president . History instead is going to ask, how did america get to the point where such a person could be elected to the presidency of the United States. Were actions such as these could be carried out from the oval office directed by a person who was elected president by the American People, along with his advisers. This is a grave day and a serious one for our country. Thank you for being with us here tonight. We know you had every choice in the world. But we are happy to have you here on what will go down in u. S. History as a black letter, bold faced date, August 1st 2023 is the date on which a former president and the leading president ial candidate of the Republican Party was indicted in Federal Court, accused of lead
Counsel jack smith. The 45page indictment accuses the former e president of three counts of conspiracy and one count of obstruction for his alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Culminating in the january 6th attacks on the u. S. Capitol. Heres the Special Counsel tuesday after the charges were handed up. The attack on our nations capitol on january 6th, 20211, was an unprecedented assault on the seat of american democracy. As described in the indictment, it was fueled by lies. If lies by the defendant targeted at obstructing a Bedrock Function of the u. S. Government, the nations process of clerking, counting and certifying collecting, counting and certifying the results of the president ial election. Paul lets bring in Wall Street Journal columnists dan Dan Henninger kim strassel and Editorial Board member kyle peterson. Dan, its interesting, he cited the riots at capitol, but thats not really in the indictment, per se, nothing that links to the rioters in par
