Transcripts For CNN The Lead With Jake Tapper 20240702



it's got no problem other than it's his competence he is grossly incompetent. you know, they keep saying olds. i know people that are much older than him that are doing unbelievable things, making a fortune. i knew a man that it's 79. he was never a success and he made a billion, billion and a half dollars from 79 to 92 and that's what it is. it's not as age, it's his competence is not respected anywhere in the world. our country is being laughed at all over the world. biden is using the weaponization of his justice department, the fbi, local district attorney's that attorney please general, to try and win an election against his political opponent. that happens to be made, you know who i am something that actually was unthinkable in our nation. but which is very common in third world countries are in banana republics. that's what he's doing. he's using law enforcement to try and hurt his political opponent every one of those things last night, you saw that was all started by this guy, this crooked guy? and not only i cook it, i mean, just so bad in so many ways, he's killing our country. he's incapable of winning based on as far policies of open borders, massive tax increase there's the green news scam that's a windmill on every corner, most of which don't work and things like putting men and women's sports really not a great idea. as every american saw firsthand last night this election is a choice between strengthen, weakness, competence, and incompetence, peace and prosperity or war or no war they'd like a war. they love wars, they love killing people. it's so wonderful. i'm the only president in many, many decades that didn't start a war. i finished one, i'd be isis and records as soon as i. left, we had the situation where russia went into ukraine. they would have never done that and where israel's attack and then we had inflation and then we had that horrible, horrible event that took place in afghanistan, the worst i think the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country and it's a choice though, between a president who puts america first or a train wreck who puts america last, they put america less. actually the democrats. but america last, you take a look at that, look at a guy like senator schumer. i've always known amid done them a long time. i come from new york. i knew show he he's become a palestinian. he's a palestinian now congratulations , he was very loyal to israel and the jewish people. he is jewish, but he's become a palestinian because they have a couple of more votes or something. nobody's quite figured it today a vote for joe biden is a vote for failure surrender, and disaster for our country. a vote for your all-time favorite president, president donald j. trump is. >> a vote for stopping joe biden's inflation. welcome to lead i'm phil mattingly. jake tapper. you've been listening to former president donald trump speaking in chesapeake, virginia. that is his first campaign events since last night's cnn debate against president joe biden biden, trump directly addressing that face off at the very beginning of his remarks attacking biden and calling this an election between strength and weakness. i'm a strength to cnn's kristen holmes, who is there. what have you noticed? we've heard from campaign advisors throughout the course of the day, obviously pretty happy with what happened last night, what sticks out to you just from the top of that speech? >> so they weren't just happy that they've been downright at about the results you saved last night. what was interesting to me is that so far donald trump has really stayed away from those first of all, attacks, particularly about joe biden invasion back. he said that he didn't read them there, hadn't been about age. the debate had been about age, but it was just about and competence something he says, often, let's just go to the beginning think of what he said. he asked the crowd if they had won just one day. he said that he had victory last night. he said the fact that joe biden had obviously the rules for work agreed to by both sides. he said it was been format that he wanted also agreed to by both sides we spent a week at camp david, but still put it fine. his record, i thought that was an interesting way of putting it because shall i have heard many of his allies and donors and so they want him to make a victory lap, but they didn't want all these attacks about druker, joe biden age though some of that is what's happening right now. donald trump is not just attacking him on his demeanor. he and attacking him over and record the reason why of course i voters that not everything donald trump is defined as accurate, but it is interesting to hear him talk about them. now we didn't bring up the fact that that biden was older. one of the things that i imaged by a number of people goes donald trump is that he himself was very sensitive about talking about biden's age for two key reasons why he's not much younger. they understand that linking biden's age to any kind of behavior it could be linked to him, but the other part of this that donald trump has a lot of very wealthy donors who are much older than joe biden. he doesn't want to alienate them either. if no, right now, donald trump is staying on message. she is talking about his record thank all of the, things that he said last night when he was in that debate, static gadd. this is what i heard from allies that they wanted to hear from him today. of course, we will be watching here, waiting to see if he says anything else, but he has moved on to joe biden's record while in office talking here today at this first campaign events since that debate last night, kristen home for us the first major event for the former president's since the big debate, want to go straight to cnn fact checker, daniel dale, daniel, again, we just listened to the top. i could pick out a couple of things i know who code as an things the former president said that were factually inaccurate or just outright lies. what did you hear so far yeah. we're still at the top is still on prompt or so not much yet, but he did repeat the false claims he made pretty much every day outside that courtroom in manhattan and made again last night. he said biden is behind all of his legal cases that biden is weaponizing a doj law enforcement to try to win an election. no evidence for any of this. two of the four prosecutions against trump were brought by local district attorneys who don't even report to the federal government. the other two brought by, of course, a federal special counsel, no evidence biden has had any contact, but that special counsel any personal role in bringing are running those cases. all four indictments were approved by grand juries of ordinary citizens. so this is something we hear pretty much every rally, pretty much every event from donald trump. and there's no evidence for it whatsoever. yeah, it's important to point out every time that that's actually the case, not what the former president is saying, but what you're saying. daniel dale. thanks so much. i do want to also note just because off-script moment saying chuck schumer, the senate majority leader, was a palestinian one. i'm not sure that that's necessarily it should be viewed as a pejorative, but structure number is not palestinian. he is in new yorker. he is one of the strongest supporters of israel and the democratic caucus to the point where many pro-palestinian members, or advocates have often run up against him. so why trump went that way? i don't think that was in the script. president biden, also on the campaign trail today, we're going to hear from him just this our again, in new york city in this afternoon, the president very clearly trying to reset the narrative at in north carolina event where he acknowledged his poor debate performance and tried to reassure his supporters that he's up for another four years. >> i don't as easy as i used to. i don't speak as smoothly that i used to i don't do bad debate is well, as i used well, i know what i i do know. i know how to tell the truth i know. i know right from wrong room. i know how to do this job i know how to get things done i know like millions of americans know when you get knocked down, you get back out cnn's arlette science has new reaction to the debate, including comments from former president barack obama get knocked down, you get back out. president joe biden in north carolina, looking for a reset after a halting debate performance against former president donald trump. >> i know i'm not a young man i don't do bad debate is well as i used. to. well, i know what i do know i know how to tell the truth on the campaign trail, the president fiery and his attacks against his rival donald trump pulled was charged democracy, i will defend it a stark contrast from biden's time at cnn's present it's a dental debate which has sent biden's advisers scrambling behind the scenes to come democratic panic after moments like this. >> making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what i've been able to do. it the covid excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with look if we finally beat medicare well, he's right. >> he did beat medicare, beat it to death. and donald trump seizing on biden's struggles. i really don't know what he said at the end of their sentence. i don't think he knows what he said either, even as he made multiple false claims hedge, yet again, when asked directly if he would accept the results of this year flexion, if it's a fair and legal and good election. absolutely i would have much rather accepted these. but the fraud, i doubt whether you'll accept it because you're such a whiner. >> but those moments overshadowed by biden's demeanor and delivery midway through the debate, aids explaining his hoarse voice the, result of a cold. and now the campaign facing questions about what comes next for the 81-year-old president. >> are they going to stick by him or are they going to come with pitchforks despite the slip-ups, many top democrats defending biden yes. there was a slow start, but it was a strong finish. this election. and who is the president of the united so it has to be about substance. and the contrast is clear. former president barak obama writing bad debate nights happen, trust me, i know that this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life, and someone who only cares about himself. but in private, some democrats lesson so shirt questioning whether biden should remain at the top of the ticket. biden's team spent part of the day calling donors and lawmakers trying to ease concerns, when adviser telling cnn, quote, we are in a dark place, but we're moving forward. that path forward is ultimately up to biden himself who so far has shown no signs of backing down by getting my words and biden i would not be grounded again if i didn't believe with all my heart and soul, i can do this job now, president biden is set to continue his campaign swing here in new york city, where in the next hour he is expected to appear at the stonewall inn, a historic sites of the gay rights movement. >> he is also set to attend a fundraiser with supporters from the lgbtq community. i think the biden campaign is trying to tell today is the fundraising haul that they brought in around this debate. they can't be in officials say they raised 14 million on debate de and this morning, so we will see what other types of announcements they could potentially have relating to this evening's fundraisers, but there will be questions going forward within the democratic party of what court for president biden will look like going forward, whether it's in the donor class, whether it's with lawmakers, allies of the president's, and ultimately it will be a decision that is left to the voter making these next few days and weeks incredibly consequential for president biden as he's looking to try to present himself as a steady leader to offer the type of course correction to last night's yeah, this feels like day one of a long climb back. arlette science. thanks so much more to discuss now with our panel, ashley, i want to go straight to you because i think it's been a journey for democrats today where they were last night, which was the sky was falling and considerations of okay. how do we potentially find another candidate here which i'd never thought we would get back to that place after we seem to have left it to be very clear, the only person who can make that decision is joe biden. he has the delegates, 98% of them, i think what are you what are your text chains look like right now? >> that's are hot. i'll say that well, i think there's different components of the democratic party, so i can i break it down i think there are like the dnc delegates. and they're like look this is our guy. we're going to show up and we're going to nominate him in chicago. and we're going to ride with him through the end and the criticism isn't really falling well in that camp. and it shouldn't actually, you should stand up and support your person. so i agree with that. i think there's other people who vote democratic, but are identified as progressive. they, i'm also not hearing from them saying it's time to turn the page they are asking themselves, what do we do now to ensure we preserve democracy people are still very clear what the choices last night i was with a group of 300 black voters in atlanta. and nobody left that event. it was a debate watch party. nobody left that event saying, i'm not voting for sharing though. there were moments in the debate how they did share. there were moments in the debate when they're like that so rough one, you know, they were very honest and so i think what people were deciding right now is how do we win in november? because we know we have control over certain things, how we engage with voters. we don't have control over the candidate and whether or not he stays in there. >> yeah. i was talking with a very plugged in democrat today who said to me, look, the only person who can decide not to run his joe biden and he would be influenced by jill biden by vow his sister and by ted kaufman, his best friend in delaware and none of those people are going to say to him you shouldn't run. and so what we just saw today was the reset and the question is, how long does he keep that up for? how can he keep that up? and we'll people believe it or will they go back to what they saw last night, which was someone who was halting who didn't have much of a voice, who got confused that was very difficult for people who were biden supporters to walk. but to that point fluorometer really interest point because your eyes aren't lying to you that you saw a different person in north carolina, different person at his event after the debate last night, then you saw during the debate if you're his team, if your democrats, if you're all the lawmakers who are texting everybody on background emojis and f bombs, but won't actually they go on the record and say it how do you change course here? i mean, it's just a surprise for anybody. i mean, like we all have eyes, we all ears if you've been paying any reasonable amount of tension, a tension you're not surprised by what you saw last night. i mean, this has been three-and-a-half years in the making and democrats in a lot of ways of kind of try to push it aside. they tamped down a lot the criticism. remember? everyone than wall street journal came out with an article about two weeks ago and they act like it was just completely made up. democrats actually it was completely made up. what they, what was born out on stage. and i guess is the bar that low that reading a stump speech off a teleprompter in the middle the afternoon and a roomful of supporters is now the bar. he has to clear it just incredibly hello, now, i was surprised by last night. i had never seen biden that way. i have seen him in debates. we saw him at the state of the union, which admittedly was a teleprompter, but he had some moments there that were off script and i had never seen him as rattled. let me put it that way in a debate as i saw him last night, it seemed as if he just wasn't on his game when he said we finally beat medicare, i had no idea what he was talking about. and i think he he he was confused and that i haven't seen that. no, i just i've never i was surprised with the performance. i didn't ever think i was going to get oscar winning performance from joe biden trump, perhaps, but not joe biden the thing though is i think some of the rules that folks thought would play to biden's favor did not write on this i that's an important i think the absence of the crowd actually hurt joe biden and that he could have fed off of folks and got encouragement by seeing people. he is a people person trump doesn't need anybody to feed his ego. he feeds it himself the other thing though is just lied throughout that entire debate. he said many, many things that were not true and it would have taken the entire debate to fact check him that hole there was a fact check on stage wearing a blue tie and was present night states he was eight feet away if he had something to say, he should have said it. i mean, you could make his own case let alone trying to say instead of the peak of britannica against donald first candidate who's, who don't trump did not debate him. yeah. because now trump didn't participate in primary advancement. if your candidate was going have again, sounds trump. what's your advice on that front because to ashley's point when he's thrown out 15 in a row in his two minutes and biden said his second, i gotta try grip 12345 and then he gets caught up one thing that biden did not do it all in any way, tried to rattle him. it did. it didn't work at all. and button to be fair to trump. trump didn't take any of the bait he was surprised. i was surprised that we felt two different people last night, donald trump was the most well-behaved form of donald trump. i've ever seen before in my life. and joe biden probably had one of the worst performances last night that we've seen in or at least with one exception, golf handicaps that was the one that we got a lot more. >> he did call him a liar hey, did he did as he should have. all right. we have a lot a lot more to get to guys stick around a loyal trump supporter and potential running mate weighs in on the debate up next, plus how members of congress are responding to how biden and trump showed up on stage last night's stay with
