if you really want to see something sad, take a look at what happened as you can see, after being struck, mr. trump was immediately surrounded by secret service agents. you can see his head did pop up there as he raised his arm. so he was exposed. there are secret service armed agents. you saw them in their protective gear with their helmets, training their rifles on the crowd to make sure there were no other shooters. after the shooter had been taken down, they did bring mr. trump, surrounded by his agents, to the armored van, which is the safest place for him to be. that s the first rule, get them into the car and the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. you can see that his hand and his arm went up as he fist bumps to the crowd. he was then taken to a local medical facility, and in a true social post, he made it about 2.5 hours later, he wrote that a bullet pierced the upper part of my right ear. you saw the blood in the initial pictures, adding that, i knew immed
welcome to inside politics sunday. i m manu raj, in for abby philip. the rally in washington to support the january 6th rioters was a bust. only a few hundred people showed up but the man they support former president donald trump is still dominating his party as much as ever. a cnn poll out last week show 2 in 10 republicans show that joe biden legitimately won the presidency and gonzalez said he would rather retire than face a trump-backed supporter. trump s response was one down, nine to go and here is one of those nine. yes, of a of now, trump is winning, not because anthony decided not to run but because so many in the republican party decided to stay silent. if you think trump leads our party, you own his comments or you must denounce them. if you think he doesn t lead our party, you must publicly say that. the time for hiding is over. the stakes are too high. joining me now with their reporting and insight is rachel bay of political, john that are martin of the
election. we asked folks, what do you think about the current covid situation in california? the plurality, 39% of voters in this election say it s getting better. 31% say staying the same. only a quarter say that it is getting worse. and i want to now show you that getting better contingent. those 39%. how do they split on the recall? look at this. 64% of them say no. keep gavin newsom in office. only 36% say yes to the recall. looking to fire the governor. he s winning the biggest slice of coronavirus voters that say, hey, we think things are getting better here. we also looked at a couple of key demographics making up why he s leading in the race. among latino voters, 58% say no to the recall. keep gavin newsom. 42% say yes to the recall. that s a narrower margin of victory with latinos than newsom had in the governor s race. but it is still a category he s winning by 16 percentage points and latinos have grown their share of the points. so that s benefiting newsom. and of
struggling to survive the delta surge. vaccination rates lag in the deep south. speak with a health officer in alabama where hospitals are literally turning patients away. welcome to meet the press daily. i am chuck todd. if it is tuesday, someone is voting somewhere. today that somewhere is a big one. it is california. gavin newsom faces a recall election that s got 22 mail in ballots and hundreds of millions in the making. governor newsom is expected to survive, perhaps not by a wide margin. that s not the only story in the race, it is the sadly predictable republican efforts in the final hours to create a mythology of doubt on the legitimacy of the vote before they ve been counted. there s zero evidence of any election impropriety in this race, yet larry elder, leading republican candidate if newsom is recalled the democrats were going to cheat, he had no proof, his campaign is claiming they have proof that the racist results are fraudulent. it is impossible, there are no
and amanda carpenter. good to see you, john. president biden announcing new vaccine mandates that could affect 100 million americans. what are you hearing from the white house? reporter: in terms of why they didn t go further is the biggest proposal i ve heard from people like our colleague jonathan rainer who you have on your show a lot, the doctor has said he should have mandated air travelers be vaccinated. the white house says they didn t do that because they think it would jam up airports and impede the economic recovery without doing all that much to improve vaccinations because a high proportion of air travelers are already vaccinated and all that much much covid is not spread because of good air filtration systems on plaeps. in terms of how it works is what joe biden is counting on here is the threat of fines on businesses applied through occupational safety and health administration to impose vaccine mandates on large businesses affecting tens of millions of worker
