1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,760
Speaker 1: Right, Richard Arnold, how are you this morning?

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:02,559
Speaker 2: Doing well?

3
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: Morning, Mike, So Harris Wolf's CNN Dana Bash.

4
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,400
Speaker 2: That's right. They're sitting down for this first major television

5
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 2: interview of the Harris presidential campaign right now. The interview

6
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: will air in a few hours here on Cable News Network.

7
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: She's been questioned by Dana Bash and has been joined

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 2: by Harris's VP, picked Tim Wolves, as well. Typically, this

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,959
Speaker 2: kind of interview would not draw massive attention. But this

10
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 2: is not your regular routine, is it. Kamala Harris did

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 2: not go through months and months and months of primary

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 2: She was only named as the dems chosen nominee five

13
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 2: weeks back. So every word of this will be screened

14
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: and scanned even before it is well the knives are out.

15
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 2: Does she need her deputy Walls to hold her hand? Well? No,

16
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 2: Joint interviews are a fixture in presidential campaigns. Here, Trump

17
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,279
Speaker 2: and Pence did one, Obamara and Biden did one at

18
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 2: about this point in the campaign. However, again, this is

19
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 2: not a routine campaign season, and the first mail in

20
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 2: ballots will be sent to voters in some states here

21
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: in just a couple of weeks. Some of the earlier

22
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 2: states including North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Ring of Beldes are

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: all battleground areas. As you know, Harrison Wolves have been

24
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 2: doing a bus tour through parts of Georgia where they

25
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: hope to add some numbers even if they do not

26
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 2: win the state. Meantime, Trump, as ever, is in the

27
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 2: throes of another yet another fueral. I'm not sure this

28
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 2: will effect many votes, but here's what happened. The US

29
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: Army today is rebuking Trump over an incident earlier in

30
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 2: the week at the main military cemetery in the country,

31
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: Arlington National Cemetery. The Trump team went in with a

32
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: camera crew invited by one, but not all, of the

33
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 2: family members of people who were killed. Service members were

34
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: killed in the terror attack at Carbal Airport where thirteen

35
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: US troops died three years back. The Army says a

36
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: cemetery worker who was seeking to remain anonymous so she

37
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: doesn't become a political target, which seems like a pretty

38
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: smart idea, tried to stop the making of the Trump

39
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: campaign commercial at this site, where he poses with some

40
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: of the families at the graves with thumbs up and

41
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: calling the Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan. They quote disaster. Problem

42
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: is it is illegal to film or make political appearances

43
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: at the Arlington site. That's in the rules. Everybody knows this.

44
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: The folks at Arlington say their staff are was physically

45
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: pushed aside. One Trump aid claimed this person was quote

46
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,399
Speaker 2: suffering from a mental health episode. Another Trump aid called

47
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: this staff ra a quote despicable individual. Well, they're not shy

48
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: on comments, are they to this point. Kamala Harris has

49
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 2: said nothing about it. But Trump's running mate j. D.

50
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 2: Vance was a little more outspoken.

51
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 1: She wants to yell at Donald Trump because he showed up.

52
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: She can, she can go to hell.

53
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: Go to hell, says Vance. Yes, while the family of

54
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 2: a Green Beret who died of suicide after serving eight

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: count of eight combat tours and is buried right next

56
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: to where Trump was standing says they gave no permission

57
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: to have that grave used in a campaign commercial. On

58
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: the question of Afghanistan, neither Trump nor Obama naturally sought

59
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 2: to end what had become basically an ineffective US military operation.

60
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: Trump had shut down other air bases in Afghanistan used

61
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: by the US and sharply reduced American troop numbers, cutting

62
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: into security there, so it's complicated.

63
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: Indeed, it is all right, Richard, you have a good weekend.

64
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: We'll catch up Monday. Appreciate it very much. And just

65
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: quickly on Trump, by the way, ever of the latest

66
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: he's been playing some of these songs, the Winner Takes

67
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: It All apparently, money Money, Money Dancing Queen. That was

68
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,119
Speaker 1: a Minnesota in July. They got word and they said

69
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: and hang on, you got to stop. So that's yet

70
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: another artist it doesn't like their music being associated with

71
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: the former president.

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 2: For more from the Mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to

73
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: news talks.
