2004 campaign. kick us off here, dasha. let s talk voter mindset as we head into this debate. you talked to a group of voters from battleground pennsylvania. what did you hear from them? reporter: yeah, we talked to a very specific slice of voters in that critical battleground state. and in a critical county, erie county, pennsylvania, where we re following voters very closely. we talked to republican voters who went out and voted for nikki haley in the pennsylvania primary. now, that happened months after haley dropped out of the race. so these voters went out, voted for a candidate that was no longer in the race. they did it to send a message, ana. and those haley voters, we went to see what they re thinking ahead of november. some of them are going to come back home, to their republican party and vote for former president trump. some of them are considering voting third party, still persuadable, they don t like either candidate, they don t know what they re going to do.
A recap of the days news. Sessions you should stop this rigged witch hunt right now. Its a dirty disgrace, would that be a problem . You bet it would be. If he had sent Jeff Sessions a memo to that effect or said it in a meeting, would that be important evidence . In an inquiry into Obstruction Of Justice . It certainly would. I know that, im not an attorney, im sure you know that as well. Because he types it out on twitter for the whole world to see, including Jeff Sessions, are we supposed to ignore it as just the president blowing off steam . Why . And its far from the first time that we have been told so treat the president s public statements as something else, something other than what they say. Remember this from july of 2016 . Russia, if youre listening, i hope youre able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. This is why this is important. This is how the new york times

them, from the president down to the smallest villager. general hertling, how much of a learning enemy are russian forces? i mean, how much are they able to see what s going wrong and pivot? you can t learn in the position they re in right now, anderson. this is a lack of training, a lack of preparation and exercises, a lack of discipline in the army. remember, the majority of russian soldiers are conscripts. they re in for less than two years, in some cases a year. some of those vehicles we ve seen on the road, indicators are they have extremely poor maintenance. they ve been sitting for a very long time. that s what a train soldier ensures doesn t happen, that their vehicles work when they need them to. so, a combination of a lack of preparation doesn t contribute well to adapting on the battlefield. and the army that adapts fastest and first usually wins the fight.
