1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Now stateside Richard Arnold morning, I think I said at Wednesday,

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: could have sit at Monday, could have sit at both days.

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,799
Speaker 1: But I've thoroughly enjoyed this. They fizzed the place up,

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: haven't they.

5
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: It has been a spirited campaign week for the Dems.

6
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: No doubt about that question now is can Kamala Harris

7
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: stick the landing? Coming up in a few hours is

8
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 2: the biggest speech of her political career now. It follows

9
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: some epic moments, including this last night from Tim Walls

10
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 2: speaking in the Chicago convention Hall to his family.

11
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 3: Pope, Gos and Gwen, you are my entire world, and

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 3: I love you.

13
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: It wasn't so much what he said, but the reaction

14
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: when his seventeen year old son, Gas, who has a

15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 2: learning disability, dissolved in tears and open emotion as he

16
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 2: said repeatedly, that's my dad. That's my dad until he

17
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 2: want to be vice President's speech. Few people really knew

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 2: much about him, but he gave one of the most

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: memorable convention addresses. And I've seen a lot of these things.

20
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: While he has done all kinds of work in his career,

21
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: you're including teaching. He also coached a local football team

22
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: and brought them to victory. Sixteen members of his man

23
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: Cato West High School's nineteen ninety nineteen joined their former

24
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: coach on stage, wearing their jerseys still fit them on,

25
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 2: mostly after winning the Minnesota state title twenty five years ago. Then,

26
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,919
Speaker 2: a one time student runner that he mentored, Ben Ingram,

27
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: said this about Tim Walls, It's.

28
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 4: The kind of guy you can count on to push

29
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 4: you out of a snowbank. I know this because Tim

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: Wallas has pushed me out of a snowbank.

31
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 2: Walls is a governor and now, of course vice presidential pick,

32
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 2: but last night they simply called him coach. His speech

33
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: wasn't just a pep talk, however. He also repeated his

34
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 2: charge that Trump is to quote the word that he's

35
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 2: sacred to using weird.

36
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: So here this is the part clip and save it

37
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: and send it to your undecided relatives so they know.

38
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 3: If you're middle class family or a family trying to

39
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 3: get into the middle class, Kamala Harris is going to

40
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 3: cut your taxes. If you're getting squeezed by prescription drug prices,

41
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris is going to take on big pharma.

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 2: Well, then came the sports like pip talk.

43
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 3: Let me finish with this team.

44
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: It's the fourth quarter.

45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: We're down a field goal, but we're on offense and

46
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 3: we've got the ball. We're driving down the field. Ed, boy,

47
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: do we have the right team?

48
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 2: Well, Casuals already is supparing comedians into action like a

49
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: met friend who does all kinds of politicians' voices and

50
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: also who does a Philly good take on the coach.

51
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 4: I got to tell you one last thing. When we

52
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: win this dang thing, Kamala Harris is going to take

53
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 4: a big thing of gatoraded port all over my face.

54
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,119
Speaker 4: I'm the best dank coach you ever seen. Ted Lasso's

55
00:02:59,160 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 4: got nothing on me.

56
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 2: I love that, said the real coach Wolves. However, in

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 2: response toes Over that.

58
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: We got seventy six days, that's nothing. There'll be time

59
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 3: to sleep when you're dad.

60
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: So Kamala Harris, there's the market.

61
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, he was good. I've got him at six

62
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: am tomorrow when I can't remembers that Arizona wherever it is.

63
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: Is he gone?

64
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 2: Not yet, but the indications are at anytime they're still negotiating.

65
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: Some of the details we're talking about. Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

66
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 2: But the Harris campaign had refused a meeting with RFK.

67
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: Donald Trump did not, in fact, has been sort of

68
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: sounding him out in recent weeks. So the indications are

69
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: that RK could drop out of the race and endorse Trump,

70
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: and RK spokesman has posted that Kennedy quote will address

71
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: the nation tomorrow. A president addresses the nation. RFK Junior

72
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: hasn't even been endorsed by most of his own family.

73
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: His polling has slipped, especially since his admission about you know,

74
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: dropping that dead beer in New York Central Park because

75
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: he hadn't had time to skin it and eat it.

76
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: I mean, after his it's a problem this after his

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: revelation that he had a dead woman in his brain. Anyway,

78
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: his numbers weren't around fifteen percent in some key areas.

79
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: Now they're down to about five and a bit. And

80
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: if he withdraws, well, who knows. Trump has been seemingly

81
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: pushing some of Kennedy these anti VAXA positions, and he

82
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 2: said today it's a little different kind of a guy,

83
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: very smart guy, is a very good person. If he

84
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 2: endorsed me, I would be honored by it. Kennedy wants

85
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: some sort of government role and Don Junior says he's

86
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 2: cool with that. Let him run the health Department or

87
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: something of the kind.

88
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 3: The idea, I love the idea of, you know, giving him,

89
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: you know, some sort of role in some sort of

90
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 3: you know, major uh, you know, three letter entity or

91
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 3: whatever it may be, and let him blow it up.

92
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, let him quid blow it up the Food

93
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 2: and Drug Administration. I mean, yikes.

94
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, a good week, he might. We'll see you Monday.

95
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:57,720
