alternative to an establishment candidate. he was the outsider. he was the new flavor. this time around, bernie is the old model, right? there are plenty of new shinier models to choose from, all of which are basically occupying the same policy space as him. so it s a much different feel. it s a much different dynamic for bernie. we ve seen his poll numbers take a hit because of that. there are too many other options out there for a lot of these democratic candidates who like his message, but they re finding it in these different candidates. we ll see what happens. whether he s able to sort of re-energize his campaign. but he s been sliding as of late. julie: all right, thank you very much. so the 2020 census questionary being printed without a question about citizenship status. but the fight to include it may not be over. plus, lots of criticism about the president s july 4th celebration as tanks roll into the state s capital. we re live at the national mall to tell us about it.
taken over third place in the real clear politics national average, dropping warren to fourth. the co-founder and publisher of real clear politics. this is interesting stuff. it is no joke, this debate was a big big deal especially for kamala harris, who has more than doubled her support, which is no surprise after her first debate performance. she can just keep rising. what did you think of her compared to biden? reporter: yeah, julie. it is pretty remarkable. we ve got sick polls now that have been taken in the post debate period. kamala harris doubled her support in every single one of them. nationally, she s basically tied with bernie sanders. and conversely, we saw joe biden slip five points. we saw bernie slip about two points. so lot of that momentum seemed to flow from joe biden and bernie right into kamala harris pocket. clearly she had a strong debate performance and now, but here s the thing.
partisan. they say all of this that you see behind me, the military vehicles that have been rolled in this morning is something you expect to see in north korea, not the united states. what he is doing is a partisan act, inviting people to get tickets. he s politicized the 4th of july before he opens his mouth. the president is not going to get political. he is going to celebrate the greatest country, the greatest idea in the history of the world. that is the united states of america. we re gonna have a lot of surprises. the president didn t get into all of them. in fact, private donations are coming in. reporter: tomorrow s events begin with the national independence parade. then the traditional capital concert. it all ends with fireworks. we expect to see some counter protests. police say permits have been issues.
even if they re merely suspected of a crime, it s in their best interest to remain sigh len. i think going out on national television, giving interviews to the media can only hurt his case. i do not think it was a wise thing to do. if he says anything before trial and then decides to testify at trial, if there s any little difference between one statement and another, it goes to his credibility and a prosecutor on cross examination will eat him alive with a prior inconsistent statement. julie: talk about trying to damage your own defense. number one the investigation is still unfolding. number two, there is a lot of evidence. he s already been charged with covering up some evidence. so if he is concealing anything in this case, i mean, then he says i didn t wish her any ill will, it s gonna bite him back when he gets charged, if he ever gets charged with his murder. of course he s presumed to be innocent. even in light of that presumption, all of the evidence we ve seen that s now
now, these two tombs near the angel statue in the cemetery, julie, will be opened up next week. that cemetery called the tutonic cemetery, where german speaking priests and members of the church have been buried over centuries. emanuela orlandi s family will be present. the dna will be tested. there will be movement toward closure if her remains are found inside. however, if that is the case, julie, a lot of other questions need to be asked at the vatican, presumably and elsewhere as to what actually happened to orlandi. she would be 51 years old right now. julie? julie: amy kellogg, thank you. july 4th holiday forecast, will your plans get rained out? plus, it s get away day across the country. what s being called the busiest road travel day of the independence day holiday weekend. so how can you avoid the gridlock, or can you? we ll talk. my insurance rates are probably gonna double. but dad, you ve got allstate.
