To the whole story. I m anderson cooper. We are less than seven months away from the next presidential election. But even now, four years after joe biden won, there are a number of down from supporters who dispute those results. And that s not all they dispute. The january 6 attack was an insurrection dispute. The idea of separation of church and state in america. Some even dispute that the last super bowl was played honestly, and they blamed taylor swift for rigging the outcome over the next hour, cnn s donie o sullivan dives and those who are trying to battle them. [music playing] donnie o sullivan: this event today is at a church but [laughs] not entirely clear what kind of church it really is. One of the guest speakers there today is a man by the name of derrick evans. He spent three months in prison for his role in the attack on the us capitol, and now he s running for congress. [rain pattering] (singing) for the land of the free and the home of the brave [applause] supporter: tha
Welcome to welcome to primetime weekend. I m rachel maddow. Let s get right to the week s top stories. The past 24 hours have been a microcosm of the race. Kamala harris and tim walz doing the standard campaign work for a major party candidate. They kept an even keel at the sitdown interview last night that went through a lot of the republican charges against them. While they are doing that, trump is out there, honestly stumbling to put together english sentences. His campaign keeps stepping in masses of its own making including an enormous one tonight which we will get to. Both the candidate and his aides are, as usual, posting through it. The fallout continues from trumps a political photo op and campaign commercial on tiktok at arlington national cemetery at the beginning of the week where he gave the thumbs up over the graves of veterans, including many who did not consent to any of this. He cut a video blaming their deaths on democrats. Now, his campaign is openly doing battle wi

Polling that come out, both the national polls and the swing state polls. Are generally telling the same story right now, they re telling a story that vice president kamala harris is doing significantly better against donald trump than president biden had been doing in his campaign. That is comparatively good news for the democrats. They are, apparently, better off now with harris as their candidate than they were before the switch from biden to harris. That said, in absolute terms, the polls, national polls, and the swing state polls, broadly speaking, don t really give either party a reason to celebrate right now. Vice president harris may be doing better than biden was against trump, but it doesn t mean that she is clearly winning against trump. It s basically a tie between the two candidates right now. And that produces all sorts of interesting dynamics to watch for, when it is this close, little differences between the candidates and their campaigns can make a very interesting not

When it is this close little differences between the candidates and their campaigns can make an interesting not only for an interesting contrast, but can make a big difference in terms of the ultimate results. For example, right now Trumps Campaign appears to by maneuvering to try to get him out of the one debate he agreed to with Kamala Harris. That debate is supposed to happen two weeks from now on September 10th but Trumps Campaign and trump himself is trying to get out of it. T
