November rematch. Both candidates clinching their Party Nominations last night with primary wins in georgia, mississippi, and washington state. Trump, taking a victory lap in this video released by his campaign its your favorite president speaking to you on a really great day of victory, the Republican National committee has just declared as the official nominee. And so whether the official nominee of the republican party, which is a big deal the biden trump rematch will be the longest General Election president ial campaign ever. Once it became clear, the president had clinched the democratic nomination team, biden released this slickly produced video ready to protect our brain our panel is with us this morning. Lets bring in republican strategist, Kristen Soltis anderson, democratic congressman Jake Auchincloss of massachusetts remains with us. Former White House Communications director Kate Bedingfield is here and Zolan KannoyoungsWhite House Correspondent for the New York Times welcome. All Kate Bedingfield, this is going to be a grueling eight months for the white house. What does it say to you that we are where we are at this point . I mean, one of the things the white house keeps saying or i should say, democrats, especially in and around the campaign keeps saying is that voters didnt actually believe that donald trump was going to be the palkin nominee. It hasnt sunk in. Do you think its going to sink in . Has it sunk in . Because here we are. Yeah. I i think it will sink in. I you know, its not only did voters not think donald trump would be the nominee, not insignificant share of democratic voters didnt think joe biden would be the nominee. For the Biden Campaign having these two, having the candidates locked in, having the contrast of the race start to really come into focus, is a good thing. It allows them to make their case. It, you you saw on the video there from the Biden Campaign. I mean, one of the big tasks that they have here is energizing their base, energizing their coats militia, they are obviously going to spend the next eight months drawing a really sharp contrast with donald trump on these core issues that we know are front of mind for voters, democracy, abortion, the economy. But fundamentally one of their big task is getting their Winning Coalition from 2020 excited. And so thats what theyre going to have to focus on the next 7. 5 months. It is going to be a slog so we have our gary tuchman spoke to some undecided voters and speaking to slog grueling other words that we have been using around this weve got, weve got two chunks here. So lets first look at those who might not say they might might not vote because of their choices here, watch just hardest job in the world and we keep Hearing Stories about how he so sharp u, so on point behind closed doors. But i havent seen it. I havent seen it in catch up. Why dont you like donald trump . Well, i mean, i just dont think hes a good human being and disah things that come out of his mouth. Mutiny cringe every time and im not to mention all the indictments against him. So youre both independence might you not vote in the election in november unless they give us a compelling reason to change her mind so Kristen Soltis anderson, you spend all a lot of your time talking to voters like the ones that we just saw here. Do you is this what you hear too . Yes. And i think the big question is going to be will this dissatisfaction with both candidates, this feeling of this is a slog of this is terrible, well get to november and you have voters to say, i dont actually think theres enough of a difference between these candidates that i feel like im going to go put my name, go put myself out there and vote. Or do we get to november . And even though voters dont love their choices, they have been persuaded that one is slightly more terrible than the other, and that is motivational enough to get them out. Thats what im looking for. From voters, like the ones that we just heard from, do they eventually come to the conclusion that they may not like the options available to them. But one is slightly more horrible than the other. And therefore, it is worth them participating in the process. Of course, the other potential issue is the third candidacies. That is still an evolving a corner of this election, but its one that could play a major role. Heres some more with those voters talking about whether they might vote thirdparty could there be to worse options, right . You know, biden is weak and all the wrong areas trump is a polarizing salesman, not a statesman. We need better. So might do not vote. No. There are too many reasons to go and exercise my right to vote. So i will vote, we vote for i dont know right now, considering going third party, i think who would that be i think kennedy has a lot to so congressman auchincloss hes talking about robert f. Kennedy jr. Noted a Vaccine Skeptic Opponent really how much danger does this pose . Just to either one of the major candidates, but especially President Biden. This election is going to be a near run thing, going to come down to a few states. Its going to come down to a couple 100,000 voters. So any thirdparty candidate, especially with the last name like kennedy, poses a significant challenge and its unclear out of whom he takes votes, right . Trump or biden. And i think voters are going to have to dial into robert f. Kennedys access to the ballot and how he has gotten to where he is. He has used a super pac to get onto the ballot at some states. Hes looking at the Libertarian Party to get on the ballot in other states, its all being funded by maga donors trying to prop him im up as a stalking horse. Voters are going to have to, i think peel back some of the layers of that name and say, who is this person really, and who is he helping . Because i think the answer is going to be hes helping donald trump and who he is is someone taking advantage of his family name to further his own ambitions and his own conspiracies. Yeah. I mean, youre from the land of camelot and were massachusetts anyway do you think democrats are taking this seriously enough and trying to push back against this. I mean, you know how how powerful the kennedy name is still. It can be compelling. And democrats are absolutely taking it seriously, especially in the swing states where he could be decisive found interesting about your piece as well was that there were some voters that voted for trump in 2,016. 20, 20, that no longer see 20 as the outside of the government antiestablishment figure, but are finding that in kennedy, now whether that lasts Going Forward in the election, i think its a question weve seen, but as you noted, every single vote is going to matter, particularly in the few Battle Ground states that both nominees are trying to. I think this is why there has to be there has to be an effort to educate and voters have to understand these voters who say, i dont want trump, i dont want biden. They have to understand that a vote for kennedy or thirdparty candidate is effectively going to hand the election to one or other of the primary candidates. I mean, there is no universe under our Current System where a thirdparty candidate is going to win enough electoral votes to be president of the United States. Now, thats a whole, we can have a whole other discussion about why that is and whether thats a good thing or not. But the fact that matter is for november. So that is a task, you know, i would say that the Biden Campaign has in front of thems to help these voters understand that Casting A Vote for robert kennedy, for example, is not so much casting an antiestablishment area and vote as it is saying, well, Donald Trumps going to have a second term kristen, who do you think . Rfk juniors candidacy hertz. Is it President Biden is if donald trump i mean, how do you see it . You talked while these people all right. So i did a focus group for the New York Times all about these voters who had voted for donald trump in 2016 and then voted for him again in 2020. But now said, im off the trump train and i wanted to get at why and for some of them that was things like january 6 that came up. They said i was with him, but that to me was a breaking point, but there were others who said, i thought he was going to be this outsider. I thought he was gonna be this change agent. I thought he was going to be antiestablishment and now he can kind of is the establishment. Now we know what were getting with them, we know what this looks like. An i dont think i want it anymore, and so it was fascinating to me to see what does a trump two rfk voter looked like . And it has me taking him a little more seriously as actually potential threat to trumps coalition for that kind of, i dont wanna say lowpropensity, but thats in the political polling robot we would call them the type of folks who theyre meant probably not watching the news every day, but they tune in periodically. There might vote if they found someone compelling, they were big part of trumps coalition in 2016. What if trump doesnt have them this time around and they go to rfk that can be very fascinating. Congressman. Final thoughts i thought your piece in New York Times was terrific. I read it out of interest because im interested as well to see where do these voters go and youre encouraging me then you into some coalition. Because as kate said, this is to, this is two candidates. One of them is going to win and i got to push back on the american electorates perception that somehow its bad or worse, thats not true. Joe biden has been a strong and good president. The economy is growing. He is standing up for the United States and nato in the world stage. Hes handling a series of Foreign Policy crises with statesmanship and the State Of The Union was his first opportunity to make that case to a wider audience. He made a case about freedom, democracy, and a strong middleclass. And i think were going to see that case made more sharply in the next nine months. All right. Congressman Jake Auchincloss. Thank you very much for joining us today. Really appreciate it. Rest of the panel is going to stick around and see them in just a moment of next here, just hours after biden and trump officially clinch their nominee. Patients, were hearing from inside both teams.

Donald trump securing the republican nomination in commanding fashion and then heading to his truth social platform with a bleak victory post he claimed President Biden has turn america into a third world nation, among other things. The former president s campaign also released a Video Letting people know that theyre saving celebrations for november were not going to take time to celebrate. Will celebrate and eight months when the election is over, november 5, i believe will go down as the most important day in the history of our country. So our cnns Alayna Treene joins us now, a olina, always good to see you. You cover donald trump for us this clearly, its gonna be the longest general Election Campaign weve ever seen because i mean, its, its, its odd, right . Weve basically got to trump is a quasi incumbent, right . If former president the United States how did they react behind the scenes . And i also was really interested to see that Chris Lacivita cocampaign manager, top trump official, newly installed rnc, chief of staff, says that theyre going to hire lawyers who are going to back attal on Election Integrity from an offensive instead of a defensive posture. So its like were eight months out and theyre already looking at fighting like theres already the specter of them saying, regardless of what happens in this election, its going to be fraudulent. I mean, what are americans in four here and what are you hearing from the trump world, right . Well, to start with how theyre reacting to last night. I mean, donald trump had already been acting like he was the presumptive nominee even before nikki haley dropped out, they have been already very earnest in their efforts to expand across several battleground states. Im told are really focused on seven in particular, that includes arizona, michigan, pennsylvania, georgia, obviously where we saw donald trump over the weekend. And thats going to continue
