We have seen that movie before, and 229 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 3: we all know that the sequel is usually worse. 230 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 9: For more. 231 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: This morning, we were joined by Lindsay Newman, geopolitical risk 232 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 2: expert and calumnist for G zero Media. Lindsey, good morning. 233 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 2: We heard the Obamas sort of try to recapture that 234 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: energy from two thousand and eight. Can Kamala Harris carry 235 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: that forward? 236 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 13: Good morning morning, Nathan, Thanks for having me on you. 237 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 13: This week's Democratic National Convention, as you say, represents a 238 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 13: big test, and it's fair to say that Democrats have'sen 239 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 13: a massive reversal and fortune over the last month. By 240 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 13: most accounts, just about a month ago, six weeks ago, 241 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,599 Speaker 13: Donald Trump was slow walking to that sequel in November 242 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 13: that we heard at the start here, and now the 243 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 13: storyline has totally changed. I've heard people reflect on what's 244 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 13: going on on the ground and the DNC as Democrats 245 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 13: having faced a near death experience, Harris now head to 246 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 13: head with Donald Trump. And of course, last night's theme 247 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 13: around a bold vision for America, as you say, was 248 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 13: headlined by the Obamas, who really wrapped Harris in this 249 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 13: brand of hope that was so powerful when Obama ran 250 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 13: for president in two thousand and eight the first time. 251 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 13: And Harris's campaign has to be thrilled with how well 252 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 13: the Obamas told it last night. You know, they contextualized 253 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 13: her this moment. They embraced Harris's candidacy, saying that Harris 254 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 13: is here for you. Michelle Obama said, the narrative is 255 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 13: about her story is your story, and so that was 256 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 13: a you know, this is a big moment for the 257 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 13: campaign last night. 258 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: I want to bring in a little bit more of 259 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: what the former First Lady had to say as well, 260 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: her warnings about the potential impact of former President Trump 261 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: on this race. Let's listen to that. 262 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 6: If they lie about her, and they will, we've got 263 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 6: to do something. If we see a bad poll, and 264 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 6: we will, we got to put down that phone and 265 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 6: do something. 266 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: Till now, there's been some downplaying of the idea of 267 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: a threat to democracy that former President Trump poses, at 268 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 2: least as the Democrats see it. What did you make 269 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 2: of the message from Kamala Harris last or I'm sorry 270 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: for Michelle Obama last night. 271 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 13: Well, one of the big storylines that Michelle Obama clearly 272 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 13: transmitted was that time is short. Barack Obama said, the 273 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 13: job is, there's a job to do. It's only eleven weeks. 274 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 13: Michelle said, you know, don't mind the foolishness if somebody 275 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 13: hasn't called you up and said register to vote and 276 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 13: get out to vote. It's time to do the work, 277 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 13: you know, to do something and can I just are 278 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 13: typically the sort of electrifying, unifying moments, but how well 279 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 13: Harris holds together this party, including around fault line issues 280 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 13: that are we're seeing along the sidelines Israel, Gaza, but 281 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 13: also really begins this final campaign push, you know, after 282 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 13: Labor Day, more eyes will be tuned in. Harris's fairy 283 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 13: tale summer may come to an end. Whether it's a 284 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 13: fairytale fall, we'll find out. But she's going to quickly 285 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 13: be taking that debate stage against Donald Trump. Voters are 286 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 13: going to be seeing her side to side, it's going 287 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 13: to become much more focused in on policy and nuts 288 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 13: and bolts. Barack Obama tried to sort of head this 289 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 13: off by saying in his speech, you know, it's not 290 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 13: really about policy or program, It's really more about what 291 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 13: we all yearn for this America that is returning to 292 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 13: America that. 293 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 2: They knew before. 294 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 13: But this is the reality of what lies ahead over 295 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 13: these next eleven weeks. 296 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 2: About thirty seconds left.
