We will have more on the storm in a moment but we are also just four weeks out from election day. If you havent registered to vote yet you are running out of time. Today was the deadline in new Mexico And Tomorrow is the deadline in missouri.

The more voters see her as a change candidate, 46 to 44 . Vice president harris telling abc she wouldnt Change Anything that President Biden did. Would you have done something differently . I have been part of most of the decisions that had impact. Later saying she would name a republican. Trump slamming that response calling it her dumbest so far. On cbs, harris was pressed about her record. Was it a mistake to loosen the policies as much as you did . It is a longstanding problem and solutions are at hand. We have been offering solutions. The Numbers Today because of what we have done, we have cut the flow of illegal immigration by half. 4 new data shows there were 54,000 Illegal Crossings last month. The lowest in three years. Bob woodward writes in a new book that Donald Trump secretly sent President Putin Covid testing for personal use in 2020. Please dont tell anybody you sent these to Me Woodward said putin told trump. I dont care he replied. Woodward siding in a that claims trump may have spoken to putin as many as seven times since leaving the white house. Nbc has not confirmed the reporting. The Trump Campaign responding in part, none of these made up stories by Bob Woodward are true. Harris slamming trump today. Everybody was scrambling to get these kits, tests. This guy who was president of the United States sending them to russia, to a murderous dictator for his personal use. With that lets get smarter. Jonathan martin is here, David Drucker is here and evan mcmorris. Evan, all of a sudden Vp Harris is everywhere all at once talking to vastly different audiences from call her daddy, The View, Howard Stern and stephen colbert. What do you make of the arguments that it is only two friendly viewers. She went on 60 minutes last night and republicans jumped all over it think she did a terrible job. Donald trump decided not to go on 60 minutes. Vice president harris is doing a general Election Strategy that makes sense. Speak to a broad number of voters where you find them. There is a huge audience of people. This is what you are used to seeing. Donald trump is spending most of his time talking with conservative audiences which is less normal. I dont see anything too surprising about him her getting out as much as she can. There is a double standard. All of the media pressure, last year Joe Biden skip the super Bowl Interview and he got absolutely crushed for at. How come when Donald Trump skip 60 minutes, a 50yearold tradition, nobody blinks. There should be more coverage of trump for not doing 60 minutes and not doing a debate in october and for mostly doing Home Team interviews. That said, lets go back. Biden was facing questions about his capacity to run for reelection and was doing very little interviews at the time. I think that is the reason biden faced questions about why wont you even do the super Bowl Interview . It is a Layup Interview with a huge audience. I think it was the context that matter them. That is water under the bridge now. At the time, the issue was biden having to prove capacity to serve 4. 5 years. A question that turned out to be pretty good. Lets talk about Bob Woodwards book that says Donald Trump sent covid tests to Vladimir Putin for personal use during the pandemic. The height of the pandemic. Since leaving office they have spoken a bunch of times. How can any voter believe that Donald Trump would stand up to putin and put the american people first when you learn that. If you need to learn that to question whether or not he will stand up to putin if reelected and in office again. What is interesting, if the reports are true, the United States is leading the effort to help ukraine defend itself against the unprovoked invasion. Here you have a former president who has questioned the level of support the United States is giving to kyiv speaking to Vladimir Putin who is a major adversary of the United States. That is the more newsworthy aspect. The former president was always very tight with putin in a way that he would not allow himself to be tight with other autocrats. That is something we already know. This other piece of information puts into question, how he would function if reelected given he would take over a government that has been aiding ukraine by the billions and the state of policy has been were helping you claim win not just end the war. It looks like something the former president has been preparing for for some time. Should voters be paying a lot more attention. Form policy does not rank as a top priority traditionally. It seems like it should be. For a certain kind of voter that david is familiar with the, some of the readers at the dispatcher in this category. People that cannot abide the thought of voting for trump but are not quite sure they can get there to pull the lever for Kamala Harris. Right now they are thinking about maybe i skip the top line or write somebody in, i dont know if i can vote for someone as liberal as harris. I think with that kind of voter, especially the more intellectually curious and sophisticated voter, in that category, the Putin Story is enormously helpful. That is what the alternative is. It is a binary choice. If you are not voting for Kamala Harris, you are effectively helping somebody that has a cozy relationship with one of the worst authoritarian leaders in the world. I think that is the question that these voters, hundreds of thousands of them, who were traditional republicans. Can they bring themselves to actually vote for harris . I think that is the kind of thing that will speak to that demographic. When i close my eyes and think about the profile of the voter that jonathan laid out, the picture of Mitt Romney comes to mind. We just learned yet again, he does not plan to endorse Kamala Harris. Does that surprise you . Given exactly the person in profile Jonathan Jost laid out. I am not sure the Harris Campaign is too concerned about his endorsement. They picked up a lot of republican endorsements. I will say we have had Reporting And Notice and there was a story about how important this electorate is to harris. This is a state where the map has changed and is more republican than it was in 2020. Now, is to not just hold their nose and not vote but doing active steps to make that happen. It is an uphill climb. It is tough to ask anybody to do. This is one of the biggest challenges right now. Donald Trump And Jade events jumped on Vp Harriss comment that she couldnt think of anything she would do differently than biden. Why does she need to make an argument that she is the change candidate. The knock on biden was age not policy. A lot of voters, particularly in Swing States were upset with the leadership on the Economy And Inflation in particular wrangled them. It had them rethinking how they thought about trump. When you are running is a change candidate, even though the Vice President harris as a good case to make. She has reclaimed that mantle. When you are given a kind of a question how you want to give voters the big idea. Even if Harris Wasnt in the position, even if bidens numbers were hovering under 50 as opposed to just above 40, you would be a different kind of leader. She has indicated that in so much of the way she operated the campaign and the policy she proposed in the way she is going after republican votes that it is the kind of thing when you post the question, you want to answer in a better way than she did as a matter of politics. The reason people want feeling great six months ago is because Interest Rates were higher and inflation was worse. Both of those things have changed without her offering dramatically different solutions. Prices have not yet gone down. They will over time and the Interest Rate dropping cooling of inflation is a big deal. If you talk to the voters in the Swing States, prices still wrangle them. Vice president harris leads in most of the polls. This is a Coin Flip your time in pennsylvania and ive been talking to republicans and democrats as they will for the rest of the week as i travel west to east. Everybody is working hard on the ground on the democratic side. They feel cautiously optimistic but they tell me it is a Coin Flip and not something in which they feel comfortably ahead. Donald trump is not offered a single Policy Solution that would lower prices. Today on The View, Vp Harris was asked about all the Lies Trump is spreading about hurricane response. I want you to watch this. What do you think the effect of the lies are and why is he doing this . It is profound and it is the height of irresponsibility and callousness. Lives are literally at stake. The idea that somebody would be playing political games for the sake of himself but this is so consistent about Donald Trump. He puts himself before the needs of others. I fear that he really lacks empathy on a very basic level, to care about the suffering of other people and then understand the role of a leader is not to be people down, it is to lift them up. Especially at a time of crisis. She may be right but Donald Trump never promised or said he would be empathetic. He is telling lies for a reason. It may be deplorable and reprehensible but will it work for him politically . This is what he knows. It is his Lizard Brain lowest common denominator instinctual politics. He didnt discover it but he is tapping into it. They are taking benefits from you deserving american at a time of need and giving it to someone less deserving. It is oldschool Demagoguery 101 politics. They wouldnt do it if they didnt think it works. What is different, trump tells these lies in such a flamboyant and bold and shameless way that it is preposterous. Voters of goodwill here some of this and find it not just fanciful but find it to be somewhat offensive. The challenges, the folks actually believe some of this and are abetted by Social Media which is pushing out all kinds of crap into the ether, does that actually have impact on folks that are still up for grabs . I tend to think the people that believe what he is saying, 90 of them were already going to vote for him in the first place. If you believe that fema is Forsaking American Citizens at an hour of need for a political reason, you are already in the maga column. The fact that Jonathan Martin brought the reptilian complex, Lizard Brain to the 11th Hour, he gets the last word. Thank you for being here. When we come back, many of the same people that just went to the destruction of helene are now preparing for another powerful storm. Lester holt is in florida with a look at how people are preparing and evacuating ahead of Hurricane Milton. Format time is running out with a Category 5 Hurricane Milton heading straight for the florida gulf coast. You must leave. Im not asking you, i am telling you you must leave. Reporter police blasting out lastminute notices to evacuate. There are signs that many are heeding the warnings. Absolutely leaving now. Taking whatever i can get in the car. Department traffic heading out of town while some of the most iconic communities look like ghost towns. And st. Pete beach, we found the streets mostly empty except for piles of debris from helene. This is amazing. This debris everywhere. It is mountains of debris. They seem to be growing. Reporter the Fire Chief took me around to show me what theyre up against. This ballfield now it drops on for debris. The piles of debris in stacks like this along the Barrier Islands were the immediate aftermath of the last hurricane. Officials thought they would have time but then they found out about milton. Trucks are staged all over the area to pick up as much as possible before milton barrels in. Chief kilpatrick said there is not enough time to clear it. This is amazing all from the streets of the islands. These are all Household Items that were put to the curb from the first storm. Reporter i am looking at a 12 inch stick. This becomes a lethal weapon. It is the missile with 175 mileperhour wind, that could kill someone. Reporter mexico is already being pummeled by Heavy Rain and intense wind. It is the strongest hurricane formed in the golf since rita in 2005. Its stunning scale, a parent in this view from space. It is going to be a catastrophic impact potentially across two of the major Population Centers in florida. Even inland cities like orlando expect to be impacted. Disney and universal closing early tomorrow. President biden announced he has canceled a trip overseas in order to focus on the storm. This could be the worst storm in over a century. God willing it wont be but that is what it is looking like. Reporter that is exactly why Emily Siegel and Samuel Shearer are leaving. This is debris from helene. Put my Pay Close on their home three weeks ago, just before helene. Reporter what does this house mean to you . It was going to be our future longterm house. It is disappointing. Reporter like so many, they dont have insurance. We are still hoping it goes south but we are preparing for the worst. Put them in your prayers. When we return, Vice President harris lays out plans for the future of medicare that could impact millions of americans. We are going to get into the details and later the dangers of misinformation during recovery from hurricane helenas florida braces for another storm. We are going to talk to the former New Orleans mayor. The 11th Hour is just getting underway on a tuesday night. Yep, had them my whole life. Cmon bo so we got him and he is a, an absolute joy. Daddys puppy. Once we got on the Farmers Dog he just attacks it, its incredible. Theyre so tuned into you and they have such, such personality. Being without a dog, i dont know, cant imagine it. [laughter] we realize some Home Maintenance jobs arent worth the risk. Thats when we call leaffilter to protect our gutters. Leaffilters patented Harris Campaign<\/a> is saying about explosive reporting that Donald Trump<\/a> secretly sent covid tests to Vladimir Putin<\/a> in 2020.

On The View<\/a> she unveiled expanded medicare to cover in Home Care<\/a> aimed at easing the stress on the sandwich generation. I took care of my mother when she is sick with cancer. It is a personal experience for me as well at something i care deeply about. So many people are right in the middle. There taking care of their kids and their aging parents. It is almost impossible to do it all. Especially if they work. What we will do is allow medicare to cover inHome Healthcare<\/a>. Here to talk about it Managing Editor<\/a> for the financial times and this is big. This is an Obama Care<\/a> big but we arty have that and there are millions of americans, seniors and boomers that know full well how having inhome longterm care for Senior Bankruptcy<\/a> families and destroys families. How big of a deal is this a more importantly, do you think expanding Medicare Drug Price<\/a> negotiations pays for this . It will not pay for it in full but it is a big sandwich. Medicare now doesnt cover Vision And Hearing<\/a> and doesnt cover this. There are ways to get the government to pay. You can go through medicaid but a lot of people are left out. It does move the needle. The problems, a huge shortage of people that can do this kind of work. You know who often does this, immigrants. When you think about Home Healthcare<\/a> workers, a huge portion are immigrants. If we suddenly had Mass Deportation<\/a> there would be a problem. Cost would go up exponentially. Let me argue something against you. It is really important. The problem i have is it is all incremental. It reminds me of a second Clinton Term<\/a> where they would do popular small things. It is not Obama Care<\/a>. I dont need that. You want a big commission. The inflation reduction act. Nafta. Presidents propose transformation economics. She is doing a tweak on Tax Incentives<\/a> and a tweak on medicare. She is not presenting a big and bold vision and she had a problem on that show when she was asked how are you different she doesnt have an answer. Why does she have to be . She is in a difficult position because it is like an improv show because she is the Vice President<\/a>. But from a policy perspective, President Biden<\/a> has had four massive okay. Why does she have to offer a big giant different pink . Different thing . Inflation is the biggest issue and she is not presenting a vision that you want. You know who is offering a disastrous vision, the person she is running against. Mass deportation and massive tariffs are going to crush us economically. If you look at the effect of deportation, what it would cost to implement these policies. Tens to hundreds of billions of dollars. That doesnt even bring to bear the fact of doing this in perpetuity or the human and psychic cost it would have. It is something that animates and fascinates advisors, including Stephen Miller<\/a> but they havent thought through what the effect of that would be. 2. 5 percentage points would dramatically affect the economy. New analysis shows, her plans will raise the deficit by 3 trillion. Donald trump by 7. 5 trillion. Tell me why does he pull better . You got me. Your interview in the interview she did today was she is better on is she falls back on that frequently. Dont you think that is how Joe Biden<\/a> got elected . Absolutely. The argument you will hear is if you remember prepandemic, people have a blindfold on. The economy was stronger pre pandemic. That depends on what bit of the economy were in. There are certain people that believe this that they were better off under trump. Polling shows that consistently despite the fact we have had four years. The Inflation Thing<\/a> is overwhelming everything else. I still worry that she doesnt have a good answer. There isnt a good answer. There is no role on the fiscal side. It is not like there is a great answer, there isnt one. His plan is worse. She is doing well but i dont think she is presenting a vision that is equivalent to what clinton, Obama And Biden<\/a> did. Everything she is doing is biden plus. And the overwhelming concern to the people is inflation and they blame biden for that. Lets talk about Donald Trump<\/a>. We have talked about his venture into Crypto Currency<\/a>. The New York Times<\/a> has done extensive digging into his partners. They found a trail of lawsuits, unpaid Debt And Tax<\/a> liens. How does anyone look at this and think it is not shady . How is it that we continue to hear, he is the boss and has been a boss of businesses that have gone bankrupt and are filled with legal issues. It is amazing to watch him getting into minting coins and making sneakers and Crypto Currency<\/a> and it is shady. I will tip my hat to my colleague. Barron trump is involved. Trying to engineer some sort of enterprise of the likes we dont even know what it is. Again, i am stupefied by how a major candidate has the time to do all of this. He is not doing any semblance of due diligence. It is all part of the drift. Even worse, he used to be against Crypto Currency<\/a> and now he is in favor. There giving enormous amounts of money to his campaign. He is going to launch into another stratosphere on elon musks rocket. They are unclean and terrible. This is worse. Hes doing it purely because he raised money from them and then when he becomes president it will be the tech policy. That is what is really dangerous about the suddenly conversion. You thought you were going argue and in The End<\/a>, i just got a message from a viewer that said i love these two nerds. We are going to say goodbye. When we return, Donald Trump<\/a> continues to lie. This one about hurricane relief. The former Lieutenant Governor<\/a> of louisiana that oversaw recovery after katrina explains why the lies can cost lives. evan, My Guy<\/a> youre helping them with savings, right . i wish i had someone like evan when i started. Somebody just got their first Debit Card Ice<\/a> cream on you . Ooo, tacos i got you. Wait hold on, dont you owe me money . What . your money is a part of your community, so your bank should be too. Like, chase when did i call leaffilter . When i saw my gutters overflowing onto my porch.

They are ready to turn the Page And Chart<\/a> a new way forward. I feel very optimistic. Kamala harris joined The View<\/a> to discuss her bid for the white house. The appearance is part of a Media Blitz<\/a> that the Campaign Hopes<\/a> will reach 20 Million<\/a> voters before her Univision Town Hall<\/a> on thursday. The Harris Walz Campaign<\/a> cochair and former mayor of New Orleans<\/a> joins us now. We spoke about it a few months ago. A big part of this blitz was Vice President<\/a> Harris Proposing Expansion To Medicare<\/a> that would cover longterm care and home. It is a big deal but it requires congress. I talked with her a few weeks ago and how she will pay for these things. What is the answer . She gave it today. We have to create an Opportunity Economy<\/a> and lessen the burden of cost on the people. What is one of the biggest burdens and costs that families have . They have elder parents to take care of and they have to take care of their kids. I have eight Brothers And Sisters<\/a> and my mother is 92. My sister is helping care for my mother. Everybodys trying to get to work and stay at home. It is a huge burden. If you dont fix this cost will go up because people will eventually go to Nursing Homes<\/a> that medicare covers. Then People Cant<\/a> get back into the workforce. Why not say, we are going to get it done on a bipartisan basis . Joe biden ran as a bipartisan candidate, why not take that . She is going to propose to congress and say dont you think it is a great idea for companies to stop taking advantage of people . Why dont you we use our Buying Power<\/a> to negotiate lower prices, save money and put that money back into a progrowth economy by giving folks to help the need so they can get back to the workforce and be better parents. I think they will look at that and say lets get after it. Lets talk about the storm. You are the Infrastructure Coordinator<\/a> in the white house. So many projects underway. Jobs being created across the country, improving roads and bridges. Do you think the current administration and Kamala Harris<\/a> is getting credit for this . There are 60,000 projects and billions of dollars. It has also leveraged huge numbers of money from the private sector as well. Lots of people are going back to work. It takes a long time. People dont see it right away. Every Road Project<\/a> and Water Project<\/a> and Highspeed Internet<\/a> in clean energy, all of that is coming from the biden administration. Everybody knew it would take time. We expect nation that it would turn into a Golden Machine<\/a> is not reasonable but it is happening. And is stronger and it will get better. I like that. A golden vote getting machine. Bloomberg tell me politicians dont get Infrastructure Past<\/a> because they dont get credit for it when they run again. The biden administration did it. To me that goes to the issue that you want. Someone that says lets build it right and strong, even if i dont get credit for future generations. Joe biden also said that when he wanted his finger and said make sure everybody in america gets this. Red and blue states. Now we have a choice. Donald trump you know will punish people and not give money or not help and will hurt them. He said it again today. Kamala harris and Joe Biden<\/a> said vote for me or dont, i am going to do the right thing even if you dont understand the depth or how long it will take. That is selfless service. Donald trump doesnt have a selfless bone in his body. When the public asked to choose what kind of leader we want and who will bring us together and who will lift us up and who will look to the future, that is Kamala Harris<\/a>. If you want the other, that is Donald Trump<\/a>. What he is doing right now in North Carolina<\/a> and the folks in florida. I am from louisiana, New Orleans<\/a>. They literally got beat to death. We got beat to death and lost 1800 people. We lost 500,000 homes across the coast and 250,000 in the New Orleans<\/a> area. You literally lose everything. All of the pictures you had are gone. Everything that you only need to get pulled back together and get lifted up. The last thing you need is someone coming in trying to separate you from your neighbors. Why is he doing it . What is the political calculation. Why would he be telling people in the most desperate situation, why is he lying about fema . He is in fact lying and the question is do you want a person that does that to be commanderinchief. He is the same guy they gave test to putin and said he is going to cut off ukraines legs. Is that the kind of leader that you want . Everybody now, all the republican governors have said if you want to know what is going on, you have to get there. I was in asheville. I saw it myself. National guardsmen and department of defense. You had ngos on the ground. One of the most beautiful things that happens after a storm, in the darkest time. Human beings come together. They have angels among us. People that say im just a legal secretary why am i feeding 3000 people or im just a priest, how did i come to rescue people because they rush to each other to help in the kind of leader we need is a person that lifts people up and gets them to do it cannot says dont help your neighbor. I dont know what bible he is reading that there is a thing about Love Thy Neighbor<\/a> as thyself. It is a good leadership model. Thank you for being here. We are thinking about world central Kitchen And Team<\/a> rubicon. These extraordinary organizations on the ground. If you need help, ask for it but if you can get help, please give. When we return there is a bump in the polls but trump did get good news in the sunbelt. Sunb. Say hello to your Fairy Godmother<\/a> alice, and longlasting Gain Scent<\/a> beads.

L lets look at the polls, Vice President<\/a> harris might be making slight gains nationally in the 2024 state. But trump has a slight lead in the Sun Belt<\/a>. The former president still has a 13 Point Lead<\/a> in florida and a 6 Point Lead<\/a> in texas. Here to discuss it, chuck, a New York Times<\/a> Cocontributor And Cohost<\/a> of latino podcast. And matt doud, a former george w. B strategist, matt, what do you think of the polls . I think the Florida Poll<\/a> is out of sync. It is a weird one. I go on the averages. If she rose what is weird about it, she rose nationally but then lost 10 points in florida it makes no sense. I do think that texas is probably close to accurate, she is behind 4 or 5. That is still a potential competitive but they will not make it a target state. Nobody thought florida was on a list of state that she had an opportunity to take. I take it with a grain of salt. I think she is behind in florida and Texas Snow<\/a> charles, what do you think . You know, difference between the states in pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan, they have one thing in common, they all lost population after the last census, all of the Sun Belt<\/a> states they gained seats because they gained population, people moved there from other places, mainly and a lot to avoid certain taxes because it is a Lowtax State<\/a> in Florida And Arizona<\/a> and texas and they may not be all democrats, a rising population compared to one that is losing population, doing goat in the Rust Belt<\/a> states. And doing good in the sunshine states, much better than biden was doing but that is the biggest difference. Let me give you one other, in nevada alone 100,000 latinos registered to vote there in the last year. It is a dynamic vote that looks different than the midwestern states lets stay on the latino front. Kamala harris is participating in a Town Hall<\/a> on thursday. Latinos are moving further and further away from the democratic party. What did Vp Harris<\/a> need to accomplish . Well, first, chuck will probably agree with this. I think latinos are a Swing Population<\/a> for the past 10 years, many democrats have not acknowledged that. They treated them more as a get out and vote population than persuasion, both of us being from texas, hispanic voters in texas have been a Swing Population<\/a>, republicans do well one year, democrats do well another year. So, i think it is, as long as democrats treat it as a population they need to persuade and not get out to vote and motivate that is where i think she can do well. I think it is the same list of issues, caring about the economy, democracy, health care, about the environment, they want somebody that is going to be like them. So, that is what she has to do, treat it, as i say, persuasion not as a democratic base vote. They care about regulation, too. Matthew, lets be clear, you live in texas you are from detroit. That is right. [ laughter ] very true. What does she need to communicate to latinos on thursday . She needs to be the old bill clinton of 1990<\/a>s and say i feel your pain latinos are hardest hit by inflation but she needs to come across as someone that is sane and likeable. The whole time worrying about deep dives on policy ended. Folks now are going to vote. You need to make sure you vote for somebody that you like and trust. Exactly what matthew was talking about. The average age is 27, it is coming of age. We have not been voting as long as many white people and African Americans<\/a> in the United States<\/a>. It is easier to get to us and persuade us because we have not been here that long to be loyal. Our mothers and grandmothers are loyal to the democratic party. The children, grandchildren are persuadable group that needs to be talked to matthew, you knew i was going to ask you this question. I make you the stand in for all Old School<\/a> republicans. We know that Mitt Romney<\/a> will not vote for Donald Trump<\/a>. He said it over and over. Today, he reiterated that he will not endorse Kamala Harris<\/a> saying he wants to keep his voice within the party. He does not have a voice in the party anymore. [ laughter ] reporter Go Detroit Tigers<\/a> they are in the series and i want them to beat the cleveland indians, still my team. I think Mitt Romney<\/a> is like george w. Bush and i am, and i worked for george w. Bush, i was his chief strategist, i like him as a person. I think he has done great things in the aftermath of precedency but he is incredibly disappointing that both Mitt Romney<\/a> and george w. Bush and people like Condoleezza Rice<\/a> have not taken a stand in this election. Mitt romney is delusional if he thinks he can still move the republican party in a direction he wants it to go. He has to go through the five stages of grief, he has not gotten to acceptance, he has gone through Sadness And Bargaining<\/a> and you know, anger. He has to get to acceptance. Until he gets there he will be in delusion. But if he wants to have a voice in the party again, chuck, wouldnt that be in a party no longer led by Donald Trump<\/a> . It would have to be. That is the only way he might have a resemblence. I remember when i used to make Mitt Romney<\/a> Tv Commercials<\/a> about him putting a dog on top of a car. It was a long time ago. The same Mitt Romney<\/a>. If He Wantsa<\/a> i voice the whole party needs to change. There is Common Sense<\/a> republicans that can have a debate with me about a way to get the american worker to a better place, slts that debate. Those folks have not have a party for a long time. A lot of them will vote for harris because they want Common Sense<\/a>, stability in the market, stability in the world, and they want someone with Common Sense<\/a> down at the white house. You put the Dog Or Aunt<\/a> edna on a roof of a car it does not work out for you. Those were the days. Those were the days when a republican candidate that was the biggest problem. [ laughter ] thank you, gentleman, thank you for joining thank you, gentleman, thank you for joining and i am lost and i Cant Punch Buggy<\/a> red. Even say why i am, i said we really dont want people to think of Feeding Food<\/a> like ours is spoiling their dogs. Good, Real Food<\/a> is simple. It looks like food, it smells like food, its what dogs are supposed to be eating. No Living Being<\/a> should ever eat processed food for every single meal of their life. Its amazing to me how many people write in about their dogs changing for the better. The Farmers Dog<\/a> is just our way to help people take care of them. I am just going to say it. I had a great time tonight that does it for us. For all of my colleagues across the network on nbc news, thank you for staying up late with me, see you at The End<\/a> of tomorrow.
