Trump. I want to go straight to cnns kristen holmes, who is at the site of Trumps Rally in saginaw, michigan and cnns eva mckend, who was in ripon, wisconsin, were Vice President and Kamala Harris is campaigning. So kristen to kick it up to you first, what did the former president focused on his Rally Today Bit more of a difficult question than you might think because its focus was All Over The Place they had billed this because a speech on the economy ensure he touched on some of those policies, particularly no tax on tips. No tax on Social Security or overtime. But the speech really veered and multiple well different directions. We heard him using some of his favorite catchphrases, calling Nancy Pelosi crazy, you talking about how Gavin Newsom was crazy saying Kamala HarrisRuin California and also talking about how Kamala Harris never worked at mcdonalds, something that he has existed on fixating on, but the other other thing that he really kept going back to was this conversation around the federal response to hurricane helene. And the reason why thats notable is because Donald Trump his team has been really trying to connect Kamala Harris to the current administration. Not hard. She is the Vice President but in that response as well, he was saying that it was one of the worst responses that anyone has ever seen now, that is not the indication we have on the ground at all. We have heard from a number of governors, from a number of State Officials who say that yes, it is still very bad, but were not hearing any kind of trashing of the federal response in the way that Donald Trump spent so much time doing on the stage. And whats really notable as while he was speaking they campaign put out this announcement that he be appearing tomorrow in georgia looking at Surveying Damages with governor brian kemp. This is credibly important. The two of them have not been sidebyside in years. They have had an incredibly contentious relationship now this is a Battleground State and Donald Trump is going to appear next to him. We know camp has agreed to help Donald Trump in the state of georgia after Donald Trump eventually essentially capitulated to him on truth social, because so many conservatives had told them to stop attacking brian kemp. Could they needed his help in the state of georgia . So perhaps that looking ahead to tomorrow was why he was so fixated on this, that plus the idea that they want to connect Kamala Harris to this federal response. Again, different from what were hearing . Bring on the ground so far in terms of that, particularly on a day where President Biden is on the ground there. All right. Even to bring you in to get the perspective from the Harris Camp in a different Battlegrounds State wisconsin, russia will be joined by former Republican Congresswoman liz cheney. Tell us about that yeah, pam, this is a message grounded in Country Country over party. Liz cheney will introduce the Vice President and they will argue that this election in their view, is about upholding the rule of Law And Democracy suspect for the constitution. And it is those issues that are fundamental and even if republicans, especially those with no appetite for supporting the former president an independent voters disagree with harris on a whole host of policy issues. We know cheney, of course herself has a welldocumented history of criticizing someone if harris has policies that whats most important this election are those fundamentals. And theyre not only articulating this message here wisconsin, they are doing this aggressively over the next four days in Battleground States across the country, deploying republicans, oregons, i can tell you from speaking to people here in ripon, wisconsin, this is no known as the birthplace of the republican party that the message of sort of seems to be mixed here you have some voters who are happy that the Vice President is here. They are receptive to this and then you have others who are glad that shes here as well. But they say they are republicans and they still plan to vote for the former president. Pam, or even mckinnon was constant. Kristen holmes and michigan. Thank you both. And my next guest was able to pave a path for democrats in her West Michigan congressional race, flipping several longtime republican leaning areas blue there joining us now congresswoman hillary sultan. Thank you. Congressman for your time. So trumps running mate, senator Jd Vance highlighted how important your district is. Lets take a listen look. Were going to be here every week, probably me or President Trump until the election because this is such an important part of our state presence matter. Wheres the Harris Campaign when it comes to appealing to your constituents . Well, you know, theyre very popular there to her youre in West Michigan. Were just incredibly proud of the work that we have done here to get the Harris Campaign out and get their message out. Here. Theyve been showing up i apologize. There was a little bit of an echo back towards i hope i hope im coming through loud and clear to you. Are you are yes. Okay. Fantastic you know theyve been doing when youre when were talking about Reproductive Rights, Harris Campaign. And even in her role as shes been showing how she didnt really productive great to her. One of the first stops was right here in grand rapids, michigan. They know how much of voters in our District Matter to them. And i think you can tell why the Trump And Vance team are showing up here so much to this is no longer a republican stronghold. They have to show up here. Theyre losing voters in West Michigan because there toxic extremist policies are not resonating with West Michigan voters. Say you said are not resonate with West Michigan voters, but i want to talk about this Video Clip that was attained by axios. Its with democratic Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin warning the donors that internal polling was showing harris is quote underwater and youre Battleground State do you agree with your colleagues warning really whats happening in my part of the District And ICant Speak for what my colleague is saying. In her senate race, but i can tell you the voters here who were talking to, who were connecting with. Their excited for what the Harris Campaign is having to offer again, when she came here to talk about Reproductive Rights and how theyre still here. Theres still under attack here in michigan when her motorcade was driving through town, we had people lining the streets coming out, moms with their daughters saying thank you for standing up for us. People know whats at stake here. It was just two years ago that our Reproductive Rights were hanging in the balance. Kamala harris took action. She showed up here and talked about how shed protect them. And Donald Trump took a different kind of action, he bragged about his role in overturning roe versus wade. This is an issue where its never been more important to look at the record we are seeing an incredible amount of whitewashing you were talking about Melania Trump earlier trying to say that she supports abortion rights. Now, while one Melania Trump isnt running for president and to your, she cant erase what her husband has done in the past and what we know. Hell do in the future given another chance. Frankly, were seeing this with a lot of other republicans as well and journalists are not in a position to really even deal with the level of lies that we are seeing from the republican party. Weve just, weve never seen people completely lie about what theyve done and what they will do. But we have a Record Number of women who are dying every single day because their rights have been stripped away. Let me just jump in and journalists, i think done a pretty good job of doing their jobs, factchecking, bringing to light what needs to be brought to light but i want to ask you about this Associated Press story today. Thats quoting democratic congresswoman Debbie Dingell, who represents an area outside detroit and she said, it says dingell and others have said harris is still relatively new to many voters. That she needs to make her plans clear to voters the congresswoman also said harris needed to counter efforts by republicans to paint her as an outoftouch with michigan voters. Workers, the state at Play Today or No One is winning this state right now. And so i hear you talking about Reproductive Rights and how thats really resonating with some voters there in Western Michigan but what about on the other issues that may be michigan workers care about, is she doing enough to get them . Well, i think that she is right. I mean, shes showing shes talking about the economies. Shes talking about her plans for Small Business i serve on the house Small Business committee. Its something that is incredibly important to us here in West Michigan, making sure that all entrepreneurs have a way to move there business for word. I hear her message, especially her economic message, is really resonating with a lot of families and certainly, weve still got 33 days to go until the election and voters are making their decisions, right now. So we hope they continue to show up. Shes going to be here in Michigan Tomorrow doing just that talking to folks in flint this is a battleground. Make no mistake. But were out here, were doing everything we can and i see in my community, people who remember the painful policies of Donald Trump where we lost nine how wasnt auto jobs, right . Thats still lives fresh in peoples memories. He closed, he promised not to close a single plant. Nine close, right . These are the failed economic policies of Donald Trump. And we know that Kamala Harris is offering something new and shes got the record to prove it. All right. Coverage and i do just want to say go ahead. I do just want to say i think it is really important. Abortion rights is an economic issue im sitting here at my Kitchen Table and i can tell you there is no more important economic decision then whether, when and how to start a family. And right now, we have people who are willing to say, well, Donald Trump says he wont support any right abortion ban, but theyre not willing to look back at the record. My republican opponent, theyre saying, well, he said he wont support a nationwide abortion ban, but yet hes been endorsed by groups who support just that. No one is willing to report on that and to say, well, hey, Wait A Second the record really speaks for itself. These republicans across michigan, and they didnt have to take these endorsements, but they did. Why . Okay. Congresswoman Hillary Schools and thank you for coming on the show and sharing your perspective. We appreciate it. Thank, you so much. Lets discuss with our panel. So paul, you heard me ask Congresswoman Skeleton about the claim by fellow michigan representative Debbie Dingell that people in detroit and elsewhere is still dont know harris well enough. Do you buy that . What do you think . I think debbie is exactly right . She always is in michigan. Shes well friend of mine, so im a little biased. But yes, they need to get to know her. She knew that they know everything about trump and he will fall, but it will rise. He trades in a very, very narrow band, but, somethings happened in michigan. Its been ressa hillary lost michigan by 10,704 votes and when lavora barnes, another friend of mine, became state party chair, she said, im going to knock on every one of those 10,000 Kevin Under four doors michigan went for biden by 154,000 votes. They then it just went for Gretchen Whitmer by 469,000 votes. Somethings happening there and you know what it is . In my party. The women are in charge. Its hillary, its Debbie Dingell lavora barnes, the state party chair. Theres no better State Chair in this country. Governor Whitmer Attorney general, dana nessel, the secretary of state, Jocelyn Benson theyre getting it done now. I think debbie is exactly right. This thing is not over at all. Its a complete toss up, but theres really only two ways to run unopposed or scared and im terrified so tia, how important is michigan i mean, all of the Battleground States we know are going to be close. I mean, i think thats just the name of the game. So anyone who wants to see a lot of separation for either candidate at this juncture, its just not going to happen in those hotly contested states. I do think michigan has specific problems for harris with the uncommitted voters that are still concerned about the war in israel, hamas conflict we also know that black voters and latino voters are a concern in any of the Battleground States. So theres still work to do. I think harris is doing everything she can and she is doing a lot of different types of outreach, but its still going to be close. Notable by the way, ive asked some of my research and openended question, thousand registered voters tell me what is a Policy Position that Kamala Harris holds . And an awful lot of people cannot answer that question when they do the battle, quarter of them, which is the biggest response, say shes prochoice, her position on abortion is the one that voters know the most about. I thought it was notable that in your interview with congresswoman sculpting she kept going back to that. Thats the one were democrats think that is the safest terrain for us . But i do think there is a if i was a democratic strategist, i might wonder at the expense of talking about what other issues because there were very few people in our survey who said, i know where Kamala Harris stands on the economy. I know what she wants to do to help my family. And i do think that in a state like michigan, just betting it all on were going to win because voters are going to not want to go to a prolife candidate. Its a gamble was the last time we had a president ial candidate who you couldnt answer the question, what are they going to do on Day One . I mean, this is to your point. I dont know that people know what a president harris would do on Day One shes been shes been all over the map and im not just talking the flipflops. Shes been All Over The Place. And i think that matters to people and to pauls point on the introduction she really does need to introduce herself and its, its i dont think shes i dont think shes completing that task at the moment, especially if youve the argument the policy doesnt matter what this election its not going to decide the election i should say, theres two kind of voters. Think voters and feel voters. All the thing voters have made up their minds. They have, they either like Trump Or HateTrump Kamala inherits all those who hate trump. And thats more than half the country. So
