The cbs news Battleground Tracker asked registered voters which president ial candidate would do a better job handling the covid outbreak. Voters chose democratic nominee joe biden over President Trump, 50 to 38 . The poll also shows biden with a tenpoint lead in the race among likely voters. He travels to harrisburg, pennsylvania, today for a labor day event focused on unions and working families. As ed okeefe reports, his running mate is questioning the president s push for a Coronavirus Vaccine. I will say that i would not trust donald trump, and it would have to be a credible source of information that talks about the efficacy and the reliability of whatever hes talking about. Reporter democratic Vice President ial candidate Kamala Harris said she wouldnt trust just President Trumps word on a Coronavirus Vaccine if one is available before the election. I will not take his word for it. He wants us to inject bleach. No, i will not take his word. Reporter and harris isnt alone. A new cbs news Battleground Tracker poll finds skepticism about a vaccine is on the roois. Nearly twothirds say it was probably rushed without enough testing. Rather than a Scientific Achievement that happened quickly. And as protests continue across the country, the poll finds more voters see democratic president ial candidate joe biden as trying to calm the situation while President Trump is perceived to be encouraging fghting. Mr. Trump has spent the last several weeks raising concerns about a potential spike in violence in the nations suburbs. Biden and the radical lefts weak response has led to chaos and violence. Reporter but the poll thinks its not likely violent protests will happen in their neighborhood. We do have two systems of justice in america. Reporter harris, who set the campaign in wisconsin today, on sunday also criticized attorney general bill barr for denying that systemic racism exists in the criminal justice system. Theres no question that we have seen an unacceptable incidents for generations of unarmed black men being killed. Nobody can deny that.

Paula reid looks at some of the allegations in it. Reporter President Trumps former fixer Michael Cohen insists his old boss is a cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator and a con man. Cbs news obtained an early copy of cohens book where he reveals President Trumps admiration for Vladimir Putins ability to take over an entire nation and run it like it was his personal company. Cohens behind the scenes account corroborates accusations previously made about the president including hatred and contempt for his predecessor barack obama. He was an incompetent president. Grossly incompetent. Reporter cohen says trump claimed the former president got his degrees from fing affirmative action. And President Trump said tell me one country run by a black person that isnt an shole. He called Michael Cohen a disgraced felon who has lost all credibility and is not surprised to see his latest attempt to profit off of lies. The administration is trying to discredit a report by the atlantic magazine alleging President Trump canceled a visit to an American Cemetery near paris in 2018 because he reportedly said the cemetery was filled with losers. Its a disgrace that somebody is allowed to write things like that. Reporter although parts of the report have been confirmed by multiple outlets, the president s va secretary defended him. I judge a man by his actions, and the actions have been beneficial for veterans all across this country in ways that we have not seen since the end of world war ii.

It is in the right shoulder and not blocking any lanes. There are some slight delays around the area and they are working on a crash on capital expressway westbound connecting the northbound 101 and does not impacting the mainlines. There is a lot of changes with transit for the labor day holiday. I am tracking a ngerous its monday, september 7th, 2020. Happy labor day. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Fire scorcher. California struggles to move with fastmoving wildfires and record breaking temperatures. And the latest allegations about President Trumps character and whether they could overshad overshadow. And elmo. How kids can confront their back to school worries. First, todays eye opener at 8 00. One of the worst heat waves in california history is thrslog efforts to control wildfires. Reports that half the town of big creek was destroyed by the fire. So far this wildfire season more than 2 million acres have burned. Thats a record. The heat in Southern California has never been experienced in modern history. It is unprecedented. We got to 121 degrees in a couple spots in Southern California. Police in portland are bracing for protests tonight. Last night Police Detained several protesters telling others to go home or go to jail. This week President Trump will visit several key swing states including north carolina, florida, michigan, and pennsylvania where he will visit on friday to mark the an ver anniversary of 9 11. The video went viral all over social media. This kruyoung girl is witnessin her first water fool. When she looked at the camera, shoos like look at this. This is great. The bathtub is not going to be as impressive. How do we know that wasnt blueberry jam on her tongue . I think you have a giant, beautiful water fool and the mist and the rainbow and everything. But i think next time you turn on the tap and the washroom, not as good. I want the other tub. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Happy labor day, everybody. Were going to begin with a state of emergency in place in parts of california with about two dozen major wildfires burning and temperatures breaking alltime records. You can see the amazing amount of smoke from all the fires in this image. That is taken from space. Practically covering the entire state. The creek fire is one of the biggest and most dangerous and is burning in the Sierra National forest where its blackened nearly 75,000 acres and is zero contained. The fire cut off all access to a popular camp site leaving 200 people stranded. The video shows a military helicopter landing to air lift them to safety. This video was shot by a group of backpackers forced to drive through the flames to escape. Incredible. Labor day is the traditional kickoff for the president ial campaign. Biden goes to harrisburg to speak with Union Workers and President Trump continues to trail in nearly all national polls. He plans to visit north carolina, florida, michigan, and pennsylvania. This morning he faces a nuanced lot of bad publicity from his longtime personal lawyer. In a tell all book, cohen calls the president , quote, a cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a conman. The book is distributed by a division of via come cbs. He says he has lost all credibility and its unsurprising to see his latest attempt to profit off of lies. Well discuss this. Another morning. Another round of scandal for the president. Terri, i want to go to your first. Im reminded of a recent statement from the white house following one such scandal where they said another day its something else, who cares . The question to you is does anyone care this time . No. I mean, look, the reality is that if you believe these things are true about donald trump, you already believe it. If you think theyre all lies, just like everybody else is lying about them, you dont believe them. Nobody is changing their opinion based on these facts right now. Its just not happening. Robbie, do you agree with that . Sadly, i do. I think we have to recognize and this was a problem in 2016 as well. Theres a whole information eco system out there that is constantly diluting people to say this is fake nice, a charade, and some people are buying that. The other thing is weve had years of this stuff. If anybody was looking for evidence about what a terrible human being the president can be, there was plenty there, and so sadly, i dont know that this is going to convince anybody new. For folks concerned, this is more reason to get out and fovo. I want to push on the scandal over the president s alleged comments about fallen soldiers. There have been denials about the white house and aggressive pushback from the president. General mattis, general kelly and others have not come out and cleared anything up. Doesnt that hurt the president . Absolutely it does. Especially since john kelly was the primary witness in one of the situations. So the fact their silence speaks volumes. Again, the earlier point. This is not changing anybodys viewpoints. If you are offended by this, you were already offended by the fact that he said four years ago john mccain was a loser because he was a prisoner of war. Look, i mean, this doesnt change anybodys view right now sadly or not. You know, if you believe he said it, you probably believed he said it, that hes capable of this kind of thing. Its not a gamechanger and were not seeing any of that. Robbie, lets talk about the campaigning itself. The president has a law and order message. But in a recent poll more voters thought joe biden was trying to calm things with protests in cities across america while the president was trying to incite violence. Thats not a good look if youre campaigning. Is joe biden going to get a bump because of that . Well, the president , its the truth. The president is the one going around inciting violence. He was sending federal agents into cities that were just making things much wos. He wants this. He wants this kind of upset to then try to use it for political reasons. I think people see through that. I do think joe biden is winning on this right now. And the president as with many things is undermining his own message. If he really cared about law and order he would be out there speaking about coming together. He would be doing something about the problems people are upset about and hes doing the opposite. Yeah. Terry, the president does extremely well with White Working Class voters. Theres not a lot in the campaign that seems to be broadening the message. He seems to be trying to go deeper. What do you think . Can he turn out even more White Working Class voters to lift him in 2020 . I think he can and also suppress the ones that dont care about him. Robbie, lets go to you. Do you think the president can turn out more of the White Working Class voters and will it be enough . Yeah. I mean, this is central to his strategy. If you look at minnesota, for example, this is how he gets it in play. One of the things that terry was getting to i think is for the president its always turn out more of his base but also suppress the democratic base. Thats a combination of creating confusion about voting. Hes talked about sending sheriffs to the polling places to potentially stop people coming in. I also think youre going to start to see more and more the president directing messages that Younger Voters particularly of color with misinformation to try to get people to stay home, because one of the things we often forget is an enormous part of the reason hillary lost four years ago because people choosing not to vote for Voting Third Party for someone else. He wants that same dynamic this time. There were millions of voters who voted twice for president obama and didnt show up or go to third parties. Lets talk one more point of campaigning here. 46 of respondents in a recent poll did not think that biden was campaigning enough. Do you expect to see him more after labor day . Theyve announced hes going to be out there more. I think that was a good decision. The challenge i know this from four years ago. The challenge of running against donald trump is he sucks up so much of the oxygen. Voters dont actually hear a lot about his opponent, what they want to do, why theyre running, what they believe in. So to do that biden does have to get out there. I think this was a good move on their part. But ive also when youre running one of these campaigns, when youre in that room, theres risk to getting out there more. And covid has provided a slower pace to the campaign which i think theyve benefitted from. So its a balance. But its good hes going to be on the ground and out more. All right. Robbie and terri who well be checking on technical difficulties. We hope everyone is okay. Thank you to both of you and well see you soon. Thanks.

Earlier this year the university of michigan acknowledged it was investigating sexual abuse and misconduct by a former University Doctor whod spent more than three decades at the school. One of hundreds of alleged victims, former Michigan Football player Chuck Christian, is giving his First Network interview while pursuing a lawsuit against the school. Now a husband, father, and grandfather, christian is also dying of Prostate Cancer. He blames his late diagnosis on the trauma he says he suffered at the hands of his team doctor. They found that i had Prostate Cancer and that it was stage four, and it had spread to my spine, my hips, my tailbone, my shoulders, my ribs, and thats why they were giving me three years to live. Reporter over four years ago, doctors told Chuck Christian he likely wouldnt make it past his 60th birthday. We met him on the day he celebrated his 61st. Happy birthday. Thank you. Thank you. Reporter what have your doctors said . They gave you three years. Youre beyond that now. Were going to keep taking it one day at a time. Reporter christian believes his life is being cut short because of his sheer terror when it comes to doctors. A fear that dates back to his football playing days at the university of michigan in the 1970s. Thats when he says he was molested by the team doctor, robert anderson. He did the regular stuff, turn your head and cough, turn your head and cough. When he said to bend over and he put on a rubber glove and absenteed it, im like snapped it, im like, what is he doing . And then when he inserted it, it was painful. And i screamed i screamed like a little like a little baby. And he said he said to me, he said, you feel pressure, dont you . I said, no, i feel pain. I know the difference between pain and pressure. Reporter did you Say Something to anyone right after the exam . Yes, i said something to one of my new friends that i had. He said the same thing, hes like, yeah, man, i feel violated. When i talked to the upper classmen, they said the same thing. They said, yeah, hes going to do that to you for four years. Im like, oh, god. Reporter he says he accepted it as a normal part of annual physicals required to play College Football. I figured maybe this is just something i have to deal with to be able to play on the level of Michigan Football. Reporter but for decades, he says he was scarred. Avoiding doctors and tests at all costs. Even when he was showing symptoms. I was about 45, and i started having problems with my prostate. And the doctors put on the glove and snapped it, and my brain went zip right back to anderson, and he said i want to do a digital exam on you. And i said, no. No. Youre not going to do that to me. Reporter how much longer did you go before you finally had that exam . Another ten years. Reporter ten years he believes too late. I got like eight grandkids. I want to spend time with my grandkids. And i i dont know how much time i got. I really dont know. Its just a lot. Its a lot to process. Reporter the university of michigan recently acknowledged the Sexual Misconduct by dr. Anderson. And in february, revealed findings of an investigation. Christian learned he was one of hundreds of alleged victims. What did you think when you knew i wasnt alone, there are other people that went through this . I felt like, yeah, i wasnt alone. But then i felt like felt like michigan dropped the ball. And when they came to my house and talked to my mom, they said were going to take care of your son. And they didnt. They didnt protect us. And then when i found out later on that don canham knew that anderson was doing thin, he was athletic director, and he knew, but he didnt do anything about it. He just let it happen. Reporter cacanam and dr. Anderson have died. Christian is suing claiming the university failed to protect him when he was a student. Have you found closure at this point . What i did, ive learned to forgive, and i forgave anderson for what he did to us. But i didnt forgive him for him, i forgave him for me so that i can be free and i cangra should be. Im not going to let him ruin any more of my life. And Chuck Christians health has deteriorated. While he knows hell likely not see the outcome from the lawsuit, hes hoping that by sharing this story he can help put systems in place to prevent other players from going through what he did. The university of michigan spokesperson told us its conducting an independent investigation into the allegations that will allow it to better prevent abuse from happening in the future. The University Says it cant provide any further comment, though, used to the ongoing litigation. Im obviously an alum of the university. Ive gotten several letters from them. They are reaching out, asking anybody who attended the school in that span to Say Something if they were also an alleged victim, if something happened. With chuck being so public, as a football player, it had such an impact on other people feeling the strength to come forward. The key is systems in place. Yeah. This is not the only school. This happened at ohio state also and people are are able to tell their stories now because they feel like they have some power and hoping for accountability now. Thats going to make an impact. Yeah. It really will. Because somebody took that first step. Ahead, an update on a controversy over socalled learning pods for kids during the pandemic.

In 2016 the legendary jack daniels brand acknowledged that it was an enslaved man named nathan mirus green who taught a young jack daniel how to make whiskey. After that, a new whiskey brand called uncle mirus was created in his honor. I visited last year and recently went back to see how its become the Fastest Growing independent american whiskey brand ever. I remember this room. Uhhuh. Reporter in the year since our last visit to shelbyville, tennessee we can bottle a million bottles a year in here. Reporter fawn weaver, cofounder and ceo of Uncle Nearest whiskey, has transformed this horse farm into a distillery honoring the first known africanamerican master distiller. Has that all sunken in yet . I dont think so. The first time we got together, i said, listen, i want to make sure that nearest greens name is known around the world while im still here. Im making up lost ground. Reporter 160 years of no one knowing this mans name. [ bell ] his name was known around lynchburg where nearest green, a former slave, met an orphan named jack daniel and taught him how to make whiskey on this farm. The only reason any of us know about nearest green is because jack made sure when he was alive that everyone knew nearest was so integral to what he did. Reporter weaver is honoring greens legacy while making some history of her own. As the first female and black ceo of a major spirit brand. But, she says, thats not enough. We cant diversify our industry if were not getting any resumes. Reporter shes teaming one jack damages to create the nearest and jack Advancement Initiative. A 5 million project that aims to increase diversity and promote africanamerican leadership in whiskey. Black enslaved people were so skilled at distilling. Then we have prohibition, we come on the other side, weve got other options. Generally speaking, africanamericans are not going to choose to go into industries in which our ancestors did not have a choice in the matter. So you will not see us in tobacco, you will not see us in cotton, you will not see us in american whiskey usually, trying to change that. Reporter theyre hoping an Apprenticeship Program and distilling school will bring about that change and produce a pipeline of promising talent like tracie franklin. As a woman who has loved and appreciated whiskey and never seen that product, being able to create that is fund my imaginati imagination. Reporter shes an actress turned whiskeybrand ambassador. She wants to follow in greens footsteps as a master distiller. It is my greatest dream. Reporter are you getting verklempt . Yes. The reason im emotional is this is bigger than me. This is about ancestors. This is about people who lost the legacies, the stories far gotten. These are m three favorite songs. Reporter for weaver that passion for preserving forgotten stories hits close to home. What did your father mean to motown . Frank wilson was one of the original hitmakers for motown. Reporter weavers father, frank wilson, wrote and produced motown hits for artists like stevie wonder, smokey robinson, and the supremes.
