But first, she and Tim Walz will Sit Down with Dana Bash for an exclusive interview or first in months and her in walzs first joint interview and before heading to georgia, walz took the Campaigns Message to boston for a convention of firefighters we know exactly who built this country. Its people like the folks in this room. Words are cheap. Actions is all you should care about. Make sure youre counting on what was delivered. When Donald Trump was president , he blocked over time benefits for millions of workers. He opposed efforts to raise the minimum wage and he even proposed slashing budgets for federal Fire Service program. Those are just simply facts but look, its not just what theyve done. Its what theyre gonna do. This is the big thing. One of the goals of their project 2025 is to screw the middleclass look. Ive said this, im an oldtime football coach. If you draw up a playbook, you plan on using it im here at the table with some great reporters to break this all down with me. Cnns kayla tausche, She Bloomberg and cnns nia malika henderson, and semafors david weigel. Good to see all of you. Thanks for coming in. Of course. So kaitlan, youve been doing a lot of reporting. You cover the White House, of course, and Harris Campaign. What are you learning about this strategy . Make this their first big postconvention poach to focus on georgia. Whats a little bit of barbell strategy. Its been described as a rural Bus Tour through georgia. But remember, savannah has a population of 150,000 people. So shes trying to have her cake and eat it too, Hit Savannah and then go across the southern part of the state of georgia because narrowing the margins in rural counties is paramount for this campaign and its borrowing from the Biden Playbook from 2020, thats one of the ways that he was able to win states like georgia and win some of those Blue Wall states as well. And there have long ben, democratic Ad Buyers who have had entire strategy is built around perhaps not winning some of these rural counties, but just its narrowing the margin enough to try to tip the scales and its played out for harris personally behind the scenes to im told by some harris aides that early on in the biden administration, when they were discussing potential Personnel Appointments that she raised some objections to the appointment of Tom Vilsack at the Agriculture Department because hed already done the job for eight years and she said it its voters in rural america, in the south, especially farmers of color, who helped deliver some of those states for biden, biden eventually won out with that argument saying this massive sprawling agency is operating remotely with a massive budget. We need someone who knows the building inside and out. So obviously vilsack has been there, but she feels very strongly about the importance of voters in the american south, specifically those rural voters and voters of color. Thats a great point because of democrats have struggled with, in rural america, particularly in white rural areas. But in the black rural communities, as kilauea is talking about here, that, that is the focus here, winning those black rural counties yeah. And stemming their losses in the white dominant, yes. I am from the black rural south of a very small town in south carolina. This is also part of the stacey abrams strategy, right . She is somebody who would go to those rural counties as well and trying to swell the ranks of them black southerners in those rural counties. And then, maybe attract some of these rural right, White Southerners. Well, i think somebody like Tim Waltz can connect particularly with those White Southerners in those rural small towns. He sort of from a small town in nebraska. So i think his history will play well there shes got the personnel to do it. Not only these Tim Waltz, but with quentin fulks, who was there, who kind of did this strategy with Raphael Warnock in those small towns to so its very smart georgia, obviously, very much in play. It wasnt in play under under biden, even though he was narrowly able to win in 20 hey, 20, theyre trying to replicate what he was able to. And this is what he was doing, was able to do in 2020. If you look at the how the state ultimately broke down trump versus biden. Biden ran up the score in urban parts of the state, 35 points. He won the state according to Exit Polls in georgia from 2020 trump did win suburban georgia, but now play as much as he needed to there and rural america, he won by 39 points. Its the Georgia 2016 Exit Polls had clinton winning more of the urban areas, but trump winning but the same, the Trump Era in the rural areas, trump doing better in the suburbs when clinton was on the map. But this is similar to the other states strategy, right . Like they want to do better, run up the score in its big cities like Philadelphia Or Detroit and not do as bad in places where theyve traditionally struggled they do and they also by being there can draw attention to changes to Voting Laws that republicans have made since the 2020 election, since 2022. Referees were not got reelected after some of those changes, but youve seen it seemed lowerlevel media attention, two waves that, which republicans in Power Forward election deniers, people who didnt want 2020 to be, to be affirmed to be sent to the electoral college. That they have more power in the system. Out. So there are a lot of interlocking messages. The Harris Campaign gets into by going to georgia. They wanted to go here in the first Tory Got canceled because of weather, but they also back never step a step to Donald Trump has not had in 2016 or 2022, run against a democratic campaign that had Enthusiasm Kind of everywhere. Hillary clinton could not go to Row Georgia and get a big crowd, couldnt go lot of planes got a big crowd. Joe Biden Couldnt try because of covid. He was going to big cities for Car Rallies and that was it. So this is their opening a front that Donald Trump has not had to pete with before ever in three runs for president. And of course now hes feuding. The very popular republican governor especially for now well see what that means on the brian kemps side, if hes got that place wired a real a great Ground Game there. Yeah. Youve heard people like Lindsey Graham basically say, come on, Donald Trumps focus theyre simply running against the personally same party whos not running against you. Certainly not right now, just to button of the Georgia Discussion in terms of just a viewer, see the amount of money thats been spent on the airwaves in georgia since biden withdrew from the race, 34 Million for republicans just in the past five weeks or so, 24 Million for democrats. But there has been some Polling Playing that has been taken since the democratic convention last week, the first really that weve seen, we expect a wave of more polling to get a sense of where this race is right now, the question about the economy, of course central to this election, central to pretty much every single Election Trump was winning in the aftermath are the rnc, Trump Versus Harris in late july, up by 11 points, three points . Its now according to the reuters ipsos poll, reutersipsis poll. So well see if that stays, if that goes and tears of direction or if it comes back to 11 Point Trump Advantage in a couple of weeks. Yeah. I spoke to some democratic pollsters and strategists this morning about that vary poll and they were extremely enthusiastic about it, not because of the plus three print that you just showed, which is still within and the margin of error. But because of the direction and because of the fact that this is not only after the democratic national convention, but also after harris released the first pillar of sorts of her economic and policy plans, we expect more to come in occluding how shes going to be raising taxes to pay for much of that. But they see those numbers as moving in the right direction for them and they think that shes really just going to be able to build on that and that shows really the enthusiasm that people talk about a more fiscally, but thats the manifestation of it on the ground. And of course the question is going to be if she can maintain that as she entered to tough questions according from Dana Bash Tomorrow Night and the big cnn. First interview that of course, you all be watching watching it. But then what about trump and what is trump doing . What hes been saying . Well, he went on dr. Phils show yesterday, mean he was asked about a variety of things and he talked about how we thought that he woninif we h an honest vote counter, i would win california you think so . Oh, i think so. I do like i see it. I go around california. They have trump signs all over the place. Look france had mailin ballots they went away from them because people were cheating. Anytime you have a mailin ballot, theres going to be massive fraud well, we have to do is get control and then we have to change it. And its a very simple change. Sameday voting. Okay. Yeah. And the fact that he did not win california about the strategy of criticizing same day male Christmas Mailin voting when he did that last time and democrats went up the score and Mailin Voting. And then this time republicans do have trump trying to change this too. Lets say, okay, you can mail in your ballot. Everything is fine. Now hes back to what he said before, and thats probably if youre republican strategy is not what you want your nominee to be saying. Yes, this is a big majority. I remember Ronna Mcdaniel going down to the Campaign Office during the runoff and getting heckled by people who thought this, this is deep in the firmament of republican thinking the Trump Campaign is paying strategist to get Mail Ballots turned out in these states in every swing state, but he keeps under the mind and the message i think that interview with dr. Phil, though, is also part of this other thing, the Trump Campaign is doing every day, hammering home the message that harris is not doing enough Interviews Trump is doing a ton, but there usually with people who are asking him, i wouldnt say friendly softball questions, but getting in his Comfort Zone and his Comfort Zone, he viewers wildly off message back to things. They dont want to be talking about every, every organizer trying to get people in central Pennsylvania Attorney Mailin ballots, mac, their head, again, a very wellworn part of their head every week would he says this . And of course at a, time when the party is trying yeah, very very hard and strategically to ensconced their position on how they want people who want to vote for their candidate out any way they possibly can and even getting trump to film a recorded message or as supporters and acknowledging that some people simply cant make it to the bank well, its on election day, that early voting Mailin Voting is okay from saying or not saying that Message But Kind of the story of the truck go away. All right. Coming up, Nancy Pelosi, she unleashes on Donald Trump theres, Domestic Enemy in not mince words morgan never before seen video from right after the insurrection. Thats tomorrow.
