Good morning, everyone. Were wrapping up july. Its friday, july 31st, and im alex witt. Were going to begin with the backlash over the president tweeting. Speaking to reporters yesterday, the president appeared to walk back the idea of the election, but continued his attack on mailin voting and tried to sow doubt about the validity of novembers results. You know, for so many years ive been watching elections, and they say the projected winner of the election, i dont want to see that take place a week after november 3rd or a month, or, fwrankly, with litigation or anything else that can happen years, years, or you never even know who won the election. I want to have the result of the election. I dont want to be waiting around for weeks and months and literally potentially if you really did it right years because youll never know. These ballots are missing. I dont want a delay. I want to have the election. I also dont want to wait three months and find out that the boll lots are all miss
Eric meanwhile, five states have so far declared emergencies over the virus.

Vossoughian. Weve got a lot to cover this morning. A lot happening over the weekend. Were going to begin with the president s rally in tulsa over the weekend. The first time back on the campaign trail since march 2nd. In one stunning moment, he told the mostly unmasked crowd of supporters that he wanted to slow down testing. Testing is a doubleedged sword. Weve tested now 25 million peop people. Its more than germany and others. Heres the bad part. When you do testing to that extent, youre going to find more people. Youre going to find more cases. So i said to my people, slow the testing down, please. So those remarks come as coronavirus continues to spread across the United States. According to data tracked by the washington post, 29 states and u. S. Territories reported a higher sevenday average than they did on june 14th. The World Health Organization also reported the largest singleday increase in coronavirus cases. The u. N. Health agency said brazil led the way with nearly 55,000
In the wake of the growing ukraine scandal President Trump is demanding to meet the whistleblower and threatening to have house intel chairman adam schiff questioned for treason. In a series of tweets he posted like every american, i deserve to meet my accuser, especially when this accuser, the socalled whistleblower represented a perfect conversation with a foreign leader in a total inaccurate and fraudulent way. Then schiff made up what i actually said by lying to congress. His lies were made in perhaps the most blatant and sinister manner ever seen in the great chamber. He wrote down and read terrible things and said it was from the mouth of the president of the United States. I want schiff questioned at the highest level for fraud and treason. In addition i want to meet not only my accuser, but also the person who illegally gave this information, which was largely incorrect to the whistleblower. Was this person spying on the the u. S. President . Big consequences. An attorney repre
