Voting later this month. It means a good portion of you have made up your mind, but there are some still left deciding out there and we know that because the polling is changing. Harris is inching ahead nationally and in key battlegrounds including Sun Belt states so who are those folks and how much change is still possible in these next furious few weeks . Joining us now at the big board, Nbc News national political correspondent, the one and only, steve kornacki. So where are we today, steve . Look at it from two vantage points. Nationally, this is the average of the national polls coming out of that Labor Day weekend. Harris, 48, trump, 45. Threepoint advantage for the democrats. Theyre happy to be ahead and in a different position than they were when Joe Biden was their candidate. He was basically trailing Donald Trump all year. But for republicans, theres solace in these numbers, too, because Donald Trump is no stranger to this kind of a set up. Labor day. Being a little behind. T
In calling for a ceasefire . Since october 7th, its a horrific situation and many of us have dealt with this issue traveling to israel, but the president has to hand them as commander and chief. He doesnt get to sit back and secondguess on this. Hes making sure israel is an ally and hes showing incredible concern for the palestinian people showing that hamas is not a good actor and the Palestinian Authority has to figure that out. As far as folks expressing their opinions, i understand their frustration. They have Family Members there. But the question i would ask, abandoning President Biden means a muslim ban. If you think its clear, whether its President Trump or the other folks, its the different flavor of the same maga koolaid, theyre going to do nothing for this twostate solution, and they will do nothing to provide humanitarian aid, and their Battle Cry is not one penny for anything else
as religious demonstrated. attorney general, i should call you, what do you make of your states out there doing this. is this the language of the campaign that gives context to what s going on here? it s a big part of it, it s a muslim ban. trump has said it s a muslim ban over and over and over again. before he implemented the executive order the first time, after he issu it, and before the second so it s unquestionably a musl ban, and as a result, it s unconstitutional. it s it s the position of your judge, the federal judge in your state and in hawaii, and i assume other states that no matter how it s worded, if it addresses muslim majority countries and we have this history of saying it s a muslim ban, it s a muslim ban? i guess the question is, can trump unring the bell? he s defined it with his own words and it s been targeted at muslims the judge in hawaii
