Smerconish in philadelphia, the final day of voting is four weeks from tuesday. And even without my showing you the latest polling, you already know the State Of Play while Vice President Kamala Harris has a slight edge over former President Trump at a popular vote the seven widely recognized Battleground States are within the margin of error this after a long strange trip in which nothing has moved the nation from an intractable divide when it began, there was a lot of talk about a third Party Factor but they couldnt find a ticket to meet the moment. And the fresher face from florida never got the traction that some had anticipated so trump cruised to the nomination without ever having to debate his opponents and was actually bolstered by four indictments and suffered know setback among republicans, even after being convicted. The general election field, then took shape. Age was immediately a factor. The only thing these candidates could agree on was to debate at the start of summer a
Want to interfere. Should she will come to washington, see that is not going to be given much opportunity. Because we do have standards and once you stalling the children who live you will a mass shoolting, thats where you draw the line. Lets start there. Amanda carpenter, thank you so much. Thanks, don. This is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. Thank you so much for joining us. The scene at the capitol tonight, beautiful, stately, mournful. Honoring a fallen herery, officer Ryan Sicknick who lost his life defending our democracy on january 6th. Just think about the desecration there a month ago when a mob of insurrectionists tried to take down our government nasm as the second Impeachment Trial for the president is looming. Officer sicknick, he lies in state in the capitol dome. House democrats laying out their case in an 80page brief saying, quote, If Provoking An Insurrectionary rite after losing an election is not an impeachable offense, its hard to imagine what would be. And they laid ou
Canvas, Cannon Office building balcony, its interesting spot over lucky its beautiful out here and i thought was really a lot colder. Thought was going to get code. It might be a little chilly at times in this hearing room. As we were pointing out in the beginning of this both democrats and republicans are a little upset about how all this played out. Obviously, republicans wanted to see the president indicted over this, but democrats initially thought her might not take these kinds of shots that they think he did and it appears he did in this report, but paul, i mean, you have a draft of some of these statements that her is going to make. What stands out to you. I just spoke with this source close to rob hur and its interesting, hes walking in. Im told a width the viewpoint that hes not looking to make anyone happy, which is probably pretty good because we know everyone is unhappy with the rubber for one reason or another. But he has prepared for this. Interestingly, he left the Justi
Protecting the people from the powerful. Its intoxicating stuff. Reality, of course, is less glamorous. Supporting that candidate is an army volunteers, donors, political operatives, and they can sometimes get too wrapped up in in the lore, the legend, which brings us to the story of Johnny Reid Edwards an american success story, crusading trial lawyer, family man. The senator from North Carolina was seen by millions of americans as the future of the Democratic Party. Candidate john edwards was inspirational. People seemed as if they would go to the ends of the earth for him. And in some cases, he made them. Because in reality, john edwards the person well, he was no savior. [cheers and applause] [amplified voice] i will give you back your Democratic Party. I will give you back the white house, and i will give you back your country. Tapper who could ever forget this handsome face . John edwards. Being honest and changing course in iraq is the first step in trying to restore americas mo
You read those. Most notably after being given multiple chances to return classified documents and avoid prosecution, mr. Trump allegedly did the opposite. Not only refused to return the documents for many months but enlisted others to destroy evidence and then to lie about it. You may stop there. You mentioned the indictment against mr. Trump for handling sensitive classified security information, says at the end of his presidency mr. Trump, looking for my indictment here, i have it here, hang on. Mr. Trump himself ordered that boxes containing classified materials go to maralago, where he hosted Tens Of Thousands of guests, and he kept these sensitive materials carelessly about the property as you can see here, classified documents ended up in a bathroom, a ballroom, on a floor about, and when a grand jury subpoenaed the documents, what did donald trump do, the indictment again shows against him what he responded by. Suggesting that his attorney falsely represent that the fbi and gra
