NOVEMBER 3rd. %
>> THANK YOU.
>>> KAMALA HARRIS
CAMPAIGNING IN %
MICHIGAN TODAY. %
THE MANDATE AT %
THE JALANI HIS %
INFANT VISITING %
SMALL BUSINESSES %
HIT HARD BY THE %
PANDEMIC.
NBC NEWS %
POLITICAL %
REPORTER ALI %
VITALI JOINING %
ME NOW FROM %
FLINT PAGANO %
HARRIS IGNORED %
YOUR QUESTIONS. %
WHAT WERE YOU %
TRYING TO ASK %
HER AND WHITE %
WAS IT IMPORTANT %
FOR HARRIS TO GO %
TO FLINT TODAY %
AND THE BIG
BUSINESS OWNERS?
SPECULATE %
ALISON, WITH THE %
CANDIDATES ARE %
IN FRONT OF YOU, %
ESPECIALLY %
DURING A %
PANDEMIC, IT IS %
SO RARE THAT %
WERE CLOSED %
ENOUGH TO
INTERACT. %
SO WESTERN, SO %
THAT IS WHY I %
WAS ASKING HER %
HOW SHE WAS %
GOING TO JUGGLE %
BEING ON THE -- %
ANY KIND OF %
POTENTIAL
SUPREME COURT
NOMINEE HEARING. %
AND IT ALSO HOW %
SHE WAS GOING TO %
JUGGLE BEING OUT %
HERE ON THE %
CAMPAIGN TRAIL %
BECAUSE WE HAVE %
SEEN HER OUT %
HERE MORE AND %
MORE SINCE LABOR %
DAY WEEKEND. %
LISTING %
COMMITTEES LIKE %
FLINT AND THIS %
IS WHEN YOU. %
BUT WHAT THE %
PARIS AND JOE %
BIDEN MESSAGE %
HAS BEEN OF THE %
COURSE OF THE %
LAST FEW WEEKS, %
IT WAS REALLY %
FOCUS ON THE %
PANDEMIC, AND %
THE NEED FOR
HEALTH CARE.
THAT IS ALSO THE %
MESSAGE THAT %
HARRIS WAS %
PRESENT AS SHE %
VISITED HERE IN %
FLINT. %
BUT AS SHE ALSO %
CONTINUED ON %
WITH THE REST OF %
HER DAY. %
RESTING PLACES %
IN DETROIT AND %
IN FLINT THAT %
HAVE BEEN HIT %
HARD BY THE %
PANDEMIC AND JOB %
LOSSES AND %
ECONOMIC FALLOUT %
FROM IT. %
WITH ALL OF %
THAT, SHE CAME %
AND VISITED WITH %
BUSINESS OWNERS %
HERE. %
ARIZONA THEY
TOLD BEFORE THEY %
VISIT AND WHAT %
THEY ARE HOPING %
TO COME OUT OF %
THIS ELECTION. %
>> THIS IS A
STRONG MEDIA. %
I MEAN, WE’RE
USE TO, IN THERE
HARD TIMES.
IT IS NOT SIMPLE
BUT IT WE WERE %
BROUGHT UP LIKE %
THIS THE TEST OF %
TIME.
WE WANT THE %
HONEST TRUTH. %
BECAUSE I’M 55 %
YEARS OLD AND
I’VE NEVER %
REMEMBER THE
COUNTRY BEING
LIKE THIS.
>> HE USED THE %
WORD VICIOUS %
THERE. %
I THINK YOU’RE %
ONLY GOING TO %
SEE THINGS MORE
VICIOUS BEFORE %
THEY GET LESS %
VICIOUS, %
ESPECIALLY %
BECAUSE NOTHING %
BRINGS %
WASHINGTON TO A %
BOILING POINT %
LIKE A SUPREME %
COURT %
NOMINATION. %
HAVING ONE NOTE %
WITH 40 SOME ODD %
DAYS UNTIL THE %
ELECTION, WE %
KNOW THAT THAT %
IS TURNING UP %
THE HEAT ON AN %
ALREADY HOT %
RACE. %
FOR KAMALA %
HARRIS AND JOE %
BIDEN, THE WORST %
IN TERMS OF %
MESSAGING AND %
STRATEGY AT THIS %
IS THEY’RE %
TRYING NOT TO %
GET BOGGED DOWN %
TWO MUCH IN THE %
WEEDS OF THE %
NOMINATING SITE. %
BUT THEY ARE %
WATCHING THEM DO %
AND THIS IS %
HAPPENING ON A %
CAMPAIGN LEVEL %
AND IF YOU LISTEN%
TO THE CAMPAIGN %
ON KEY WITNESS, %
THEY ARE TRYING %
TO TURNED THIS %
INTO A POINT OF % LOOK AT HOW %
LOOK AT HOW %
IMPORTANT THE %
SUPREME COURT IS %
IN RELATION TO %
THE OTHER ISSUE %
THAT WE HAVE %
ALREADY BEEN %
TALKING ABOUT, %
ESPECIALLY %
HEALTH CARE. %
THE THING HAS %
LOGISTIC ABOUT %
HEALTH CARE LIKE %
A PANDEMIC DOES. %
AND OF COURSE, %
THIS IS AN ISSUE %
THAT WAS ALREADY %
AGGRAVATING %
VOTERS AND ONE %
THAT WAS REALLY %
IMPORTANT FOR %
DEMOCRATS AS %
THEY TOOK THE %
HOUSE IN 2018. %
WE NOTED THAT %
THE TERM %
STRATEGY IS NOW %
THE NATIONAL %
STUDY FOR JOE %
BIDEN. %
WE’RE GOING TO %
SEE THIS OVER %
THE COURSE OF %
NEXT WEEK. %
WASHINGTON IS %
GOING TO BE %
GRAPPLING OVER %
THE SUPREME %
COURT. %
BUT AT HERE ON %
THE CAMPAIGN %
TRAIL, I’M NOT %
SO SURE WE’RE %
GOING TO START %
SEEING THAT %
NOMINEE AND HIS
RUNNING MATE GET %
TOO INTO THE %
WITH AT THAT. %
INSTEAD, JUST %
TRYING TO REMIND %
PEOPLE, A, THE %
SUPREME COURT %
HAS BIG ISSUES. %
WHICH IS HEALTH
CARE AND
SPECIALLY %
BECAUSE ALISON %
COD REMEMBER, %
ONE OF THOSE BIG %
SUPREME COURT
TO THAT OF THE %
LAKE WE HAVE %
BEEN TALK ABOUT %
FOR MONTHS NOW %
IS ONE THAT %
COULD BACK PRE-%
EXISTING
CONDITION %
COVERAGE THAT %
CAME FROM THE %
AFFORDABLE CARE %
ACT. THAT IS IS %
SUPPOSED TO BE %
HEARD JUST A %
WEEK AFTER %
ELECTION DAY. %
SO A REMINDER TO
IMPLICIT HERE %
ALREADY. %
THE TICKET %
REALLY TRYING TO %
STAY WITH THIS
TRAGEDY THAT IS %
NOT NECESSARILY %
ABOUT THE BITTER %
BATTLE ON THE %
HILL. %
IT IS FOCUSED ON %
THE IMPORTANCE %
OF THE COURT %
OVERALL IN AN %
ALREADY HIGH-%
STAKES ELECTION. %
>> ALI WHAT TO %
ASK YOU ABOUT %
THE SUPREME %
COURT INTO %
MOMENT. %
BUT FIRST A %
QUESTION ABOUT %
ANOTHER QUESTION %
ABOUT THE %
CAMPAIGNING.
SENATOR HARRIS %
SHARING HER %
PERSONAL STORY %
TO CONNECT WITH %
IMMIGRANTS, %
VOTERS OF, THE, %
SOMETHING HARRIS %
DID NOT EXACTLY %
TO IN HER OWN %
POTENTIAL RUN. %
COULD YOU TELL %
US MORE ABOUT %
THAT PIVOT AND %
WHAT THE %
BIDEN/HARRIS %
CAMPAIGN IS %
HOPING THEY CAN %
DO FOR THAT? %
YEAH AND SHE %
WROTE A GREAT %
PIECE ABOUT THIS %
WEEK SHE IS %
SOMEONE WHO %
COVERED HARRIS %
DURING HER OWN %
POTENTIAL THEY %
IN AND DAY OUT. %
SO FOR THOSE OF %
US WHO HAVE SEEN %
HER, AS A %
CANDIDATE IN HER %
OWN RIGHT AND %
NOW IT’S EVENING %
MAKE IT THE %
PIVOT IS WE %
START BECAUSE %
WHEN SHE WAS %
RUNNING AS THE %
PRESIDENTIAL %
CANDIDATE IN HER %
OWN RIGHT, THERE %
HARRIS REALLY %
DIDN’T SHY AWAY %
FROM THE %
PERSONAL DETAILS %
AND THE
PERSONAL. %
WHEN BUT INSTEAD %
CHOOSING TO %
FOCUS ON HER %
RECORD AND HER %
TIME AS A %
PROSECUTOR. %
NOW, THOUGH, AS %
JOE BIDEN’S WILL %
MAKE A WE ARE %
SEEING HER %
PERSONAL STORY %
MORE TO MOTIVATE %
GROUPS OF %
MINORITY AT %
THIS. %
THAT SHE HAS %
BEEN TRAVELING %
THE COUNTRY %
MARKET WE SEE %
HER MEETING WITH %
SPECIFIC VOTING %
BLOCS. %
MAYBE PHONE %
BOOKS THAT DID %
NOT NECESSARILY %
TURN OUT NUMBERS %
THE DEMOCRATS %
NEEDED IN 2016. %
SHE TALKED ABOUT
BEING VERY %
DELIBERATE ABOUT
WHO IS SHE %
SPEAKING TO %
THEIR TRYING TO %
TURN OUT BLACK
AND BROWN
VOTERS,
ESPECIALLY IN
URBAN AREAS BUT %
TRYING TO MAKE %
SURE THAT THEIR
TURNOUT LEVELS %
ARE CLOSER TO %
WORK WITH THEY %
WERE IN 2008 AND %
2012, NOT SO %
MUCH AS IN 2016, %
AND THEY WERE %
LOWER FOR %
HILLARY CLINTON %
THAN THEY WERE %
FOR. %
I WILL BARACK %
OBAMA. %
AS THEIR THING %
THE WATER %
COALITION. %
IT IS A WAY THAT %
YOU’RE USING %
KAMALA HARRIS TO %
MAGNIFY HER
PERSONAL STORY
TO THE HISTORY %
THAT SHE CAN %
BRING TO THIS %
WHAT IS. %
INTO GETTING %
VOTERS OUT TO %
THE POLLS TO %
VOTE. %
>> ALI, LET’S
BACK TO THE %
SUPREME COURT %
ISSUE HERE. %
FOR THE TRIP %
GOING AFTER %
KAMALA HARRIS %
TODAY. %
SEEING THAT SHE %
WILL BE, AND I %
WANT TO GET THIS %
QUIET EXACTLY %
WHAT INCOMPETENT %
IN THE SUPREME %
COURT
CONFIRMATION %
PROCESS.
HARRIS IS A %
MEMBER OF THE %
SENATE JUDICIARY %
COMMITTEE. %
HAS SHE %
RESPONDED HERE? % HOW DOES SHE
HOW DOES SHE
VIEW THIS?
>> Reporter: %
ALISON, THIS IS %
ONE OF THE %
QUESTIONS THAT I %
WAS TRYING TO %
ASK SENATOR %
HARRIS, WHICH %
IS, HOW ARE YOU %
GOING TO JUGGLE %
BEING IN THESE %
HEARINGS AND %
THEN OUT HERE %
OTHER CAMPAIGN %
TRAIL BECAUSE OF %
COURSE THAT THIS %
IS SOMETHING %
THAT PRESIDENT %
TRUMP IS ONLY %
GOING TO SEEK %
TO HIGHLIGHT %
ESPECIALLY %
BECAUSE YOU SEE %
HIM IN RECENT %
WEEKS TRYING TO %
TURN THE PAGE %
FROM COVERED %
COVERAGE. %
THIS IS CLEARLY %
GOING TO PREVENT %
ONE OF THOSE %
SPLIT SCREEN %
MOMENT. %
BIDEN/HARRIS %
TRIED TO THE %
FOCUS ON THE %
PANDEMIC AND THE %
RECESSION. %
TRUMP IS GOING %
TO BE KEEPING %
THE FOCUS ON THE %
COURTS IN %
WASHINGTON, DC. %
BUT WASHING THE %
WAY THAT HE -- %
SAYING THAT SHE %
IS INCOMPETENT %
BECAUSE HE IS A %
LONGTIME %
PROSECUTOR. %
A.D.A., AN %
ATTORNEY %
GENERAL. %
SOMEONE WHO IS %
NOW SAID IN %
SITTING AT THE %
SENATE JUDICIARY %
COMMITTEE AND IS %
KNOWN FOR HER %
TOP QUESTION OF %
TRUMP %
DEMONSTRATION %
OFFICIALS IN %
THAT PLACE. %
IN THAT %
COMMITTEE. %
SO TO COME FOR %
HER ON SOMETHING %
LIKE THAT IT %
DOES INDICATE %
THE TRUMP %
CAMPAIGN KIND OF
THROWING %
SPAGHETTI AT THE %
WALL STILL IN %
TERMS OF HOW %
THEY ARE TRYING %
TO BRAND HER AND %
ATTACK HER BUT I %
KNOW YOU WERE %
JUST TALKING TO %
-- A GREAT PIECE
ABOUT THIS %
TODAY. %
WITH TELLS ME IS %
THAT EVEN IF SHE %
DOES NOT RESPOND %
TO A TICKET, IT %
IS ONLY %
SOMETHING THAT %
WE ARE GOING TO %
SEE MORE OF FROM %
THE PRESIDENT AS %
HE TRIED TO %
FIGURE OUT A WAY %
TO ATTACK HER. %
AS FAR AS I CAN %
TELL. %
THEY HAVEN’T %
REALLY FOUND A %
WAY THAT IS VERY %
EFFECTIVE TO DO %
THAT ALISON. %
>> YEAH, IT DOES %
