Speaker 3: Karen, we begin with nine three of the Republican National Convention,
Speaker 3: where Donald Trump's vice presidential nominee J. D. Vance was
Speaker 3: introduced to the nation.
Speaker 4: I'm overwhelmed with gratitude to say I officially accept your
Speaker 4: nomination to be vice president of the United States of America.
Speaker 3: And in his acceptance speech, the Ohio Senator drew on
Speaker 3: his rural roots, blaming President Biden and past administrations for
Speaker 3: leaving working class voters behind.
Speaker 4: Thanks to these policies that Biden and other out of
Speaker 4: touch politicians in Washington gave us, our country was flooded
Speaker 4: with cheap Chinese goods, with cheap foreign labor, and in
Speaker 4: the decades to come, deadly Chinese finanol. Joe Biden screwed up,
Speaker 4: and my community paid the price.
Speaker 3: And then JD. Vance went after the business community.
Speaker 4: We're done ladies and gentlemen catering to Wall Street. We'll
Speaker 4: commit to the workingman. We're done importing foreign labor. We're
Speaker 4: going to fight for American citizens and their good jobs
Speaker 4: and they're good wages.
Speaker 3: The vice presidential nominee JD. Vance added the GOP is
Speaker 3: done sacrificing supply chains to global trade and is committed
Speaker 3: to manufacturing products in the US. The Biden campaign responded
Speaker 3: to Vance's speech by calling him unprepared, unqualified, and willing
Speaker 3: to do anything to meet Donald Trump's demands.
Speaker 1: Well, Nathan, Donald Trump will speak tonight and formally accept
Speaker 1: the Republican presidential nomination for a third time. It'll be
Speaker 1: his first speech since the assassination attempt last weekend. The

Speaker 5: Medical condition that emerged.
Speaker 3: If somebody doctors came to me said you got this problem.
Speaker 6: That problem now.
Speaker 3: Those comments from President Biden came before the White House
Speaker 3: announced he's tested positive for COVID. The White House says
Speaker 3: his symptoms are mild, and the President is isolating at
Speaker 3: his home in Delaware.
Speaker 1: Will the President deals with COVID Nathan. He's also facing
Speaker 1: intensifying pressure within his own party to step aside from
Speaker 1: the race. Prominent House Democrat Adam Schiff of California released
Speaker 1: a statement of the Los Angeles Times that Biden should
Speaker 1: let another candidate run over the weekend, Schiff was caught
Speaker 1: at a fundraiser saying the President needed to pass the torch.
Speaker 7: I do not think he is the.
Speaker 5: Best person who should go into the selection. I think
Speaker 5: if he has our comedy, I think we lose.
Speaker 1: Congressman Adam Schiff says he's concerned Biden's candidacy could affect
Speaker 1: other Democrats down ballot.
Speaker 3: And Karen Congressman. Shift is a close ally to former
Speaker 3: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and according to CNN, Pelosi has
Speaker 3: told the president privately the polling shows he cannot defeat
Speaker 3: Donald Trump and could destroy Democrats' chances of winning the
Speaker 3: House in November. ABC News is reporting Senate Majority leader
Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer told the President last week it would be
Speaker 3: best if he ended his reelection bid Well Nathan.
Speaker 1: Senate leader Schumer is also calling on New Jersey Senator
Speaker 1: Bob Menendez to resign after his conviction on bribery and
Speaker 1: foreign agent charges. NBC News has reported that Menendez told
Speaker 1: allies he intends to resign, but the senator told CBS
Speaker 1: New York that he has not resigned nor has he
Speaker 1: spoken to quote so called allies. A Dray convicted Menendez
Speaker 1: on sixteen counts this week after a two month trial.
Speaker 3: Senate Minarti leader Mitch McConnell is calling for new leadership
Speaker 3: Karen at the sequet Its service comes after the assassination
Speaker 3: attempt on former President Trump. Bloomberg's Amy Morris has the
Speaker 3: details on that from Washington.
Speaker 8: Senator Mitch McConnell posted on x that the shooting was,
Speaker 8: in his words, a grave attack on American democracy and
Speaker 8: that new leadership at the Secret Service would be an
Speaker 8: important step. House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James
Speaker 8: Comer has subpoenaed Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheedle to appear
Speaker 8: at a hearing on Monday. Lawmakers say they'll hold a
Speaker 8: bipartisan probe focused on the Secret Service, and President Biden
Speaker 8: ordered an independent probe. The Homelands Inspector General also opened
Speaker 8: its own investigation in Washington. Amy Morris Bloomberg Radio.
Speaker 1: All right, Amy, thank you if you want to turn to
Speaker 1: markets now and NASDAK futures are higher, with shipmaker Taiwan
Speaker 1: Semiconductor restoring sentiment in tech. If follow is the worst
Speaker 1: day for the Nasdaq one hundred since twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: Traders were spooked over concerns about tidy US restrictions on
Speaker 1: chip sales to China. But TSMC reported earning said beat
Speaker 1: and less estimates and raise projections for full year revenue
Speaker 1: growth and a show of confidence in the artificial intelligence boom.
Speaker 3: As for the broader economy, Karen traders are getting bullish
Speaker 3: about a September rate cut after comments from Fed Governor
Speaker 3: Christopher Waller. He told an audience in Kansas that the
Speaker 3: US can tame inflation without dipping into a recession.
Speaker 9: I believe the current data are consistent with achieving of
Speaker 9: soft landing, and I'll be looking for data over the
Speaker 9: next couple of months to buttress that view. So while
Speaker 9: I don't believe we've reached our final destination, I do
Speaker 9: believe we are getting closer to the time when a
Speaker 9: cut in the policy rate is warranted.
Speaker 3: FED Governor Chris Waller's comments echo those of other policymakers
Speaker 3: who are broadly optimistic about inflation but waiting for more
Speaker 3: positive data in the coming weeks.
Speaker 1: All rights, they're also in focus over season aathan with
Speaker 1: a decision from the European Central Bank this morning. Bloomberg's
Speaker 1: Lizzie Burdens as a cut today is unlikely, but ECB
Speaker 1: President Christine Leguard could hint at a move in September.
Speaker 10: Markets and economists expect the European Central Bank to keep
Speaker 10: interest rates on hold at its July meeting today, though
Speaker 10: traders will listen closely for clues as to whether a
Speaker 10: September move is coming. Even the hawkish end of the
Speaker 10: Governing Council has said market pricing for two more moves
Speaker 10: this year looks reasonable, but President Christine Legard is unlikely
Speaker 10: to want to box herself in on timing, so we'll
Speaker 10: probably reiterate that the Central Bank is data dependent. A
Speaker 10: key question is whether she reintroduces the ECB's easing bias
Speaker 10: in Frankfurt. Lizzie Bird and Bloomberg Radio.
Speaker 3: All right, Lizzie, thank you. Finally make no bones about
Speaker 3: this one. Citadel founder Ken Griffin paid Southeby's forty four
Speaker 3: point six million dollars for a near complete Stegosaurus fossil

Speaker 5: Nathan Hager. It is a tale of two campaigns.
Speaker 3: As the Republican National Convention heads to its conclusion tonight,
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is set to accept his party's nomination for
Speaker 3: a third time after surviving an assassination attempt and cementing
Speaker 3: his populist hold on the Republican Party, while President Biden
Speaker 3: finds himself sidelined by COVID and under fast growing pressure
Speaker 3: to bow out of the race. Joining us for more
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Breaking News, Managing Editor Derek Wallbank, Derek, good morning.
Speaker 3: Let's start with the convention. What are your takeaways from
Speaker 3: what we saw from JD. Vance last night, his acceptance
Speaker 3: speech as running mate and this populist message that you
Speaker 3: know he's solidifying for former President Trump.
Speaker 13: Well, Nathan, I think that JD. Vance is somebody who
Speaker 13: has been a staunch ally of Donald Trump. Remember, you know,
Speaker 13: he's the sort of person who was running in a
Speaker 13: very crowded primary field when he wanted to be a
Speaker 13: senator from Ohio. Trump picked him to be endorsed. He
Speaker 13: goes on, gets that nomination, gets the win, gets into
Speaker 13: the Senate, becomes one of Donald Trump's most fervent supporters,
Speaker 13: and eventually now rewarded with the VP nomination. But Vance
Speaker 13: hasn't been in the political scene for all that long.
Speaker 13: So this was a chance for JD. Vance to introduce
Speaker 13: himself to the public writ large, and he went with
Speaker 13: a very biography heavy introduction. You know, a guy who
Speaker 13: first came to prominence from having written his own biography.
Speaker 13: He'll bili elogy, you know, talking about his experiences and
Speaker 13: you know that you know the sort of appellation, you know,
Speaker 13: how did everybody lose, the lose the working person, you know,
Speaker 13: things of that nature, and he sort of tried to
Speaker 13: tie that into Trump's appeal. One of the things I
Speaker 13: saw from Vance and from other speakers. Marco Rubio was
Speaker 13: one who really did this was they were trying to
Speaker 13: sort of verbally set up a permission structure for people
Speaker 13: who may not have liked Trump before but to come
Speaker 13: on board with this. And you actually saw this a
Speaker 13: little bit from Nicki Hayley the other day as well.
Speaker 13: Right set up a pathway for people who have not
Speaker 13: been there for Trump, who are sitting there don't really
Speaker 13: like the idea of Biden either, have serious reservations about
Speaker 13: the president right now to vote for the former president instead.
Speaker 13: So that was kind of rhetorically where he was going.
Speaker 13: I think, you know, the most memorable parts of it though,
Speaker 13: was when he was talking about his take no Prisoner's mamma,
Speaker 13: his grandmother who helped raise him, and then when he
Speaker 13: spotlighted his own mother, who struggled with substance abuse and
Speaker 13: has been clean now on about ten years. Those were very,
Speaker 13: very popular moments at the convention among the attendees there.
Speaker 13: We'll see how it all resonates among the general public
Speaker 13: when we get some post convention polls. But this was JD.
Speaker 13: Vance's moment to make a name for himself.
Speaker 3: And Donald Trump's moment comes tonight. I mean, this really
Speaker 3: could be another one of those so called moments, his
Speaker 3: first speech after getting great by a bullet last weekend.
Speaker 13: Derek. Yeah. Now, Trump has made appearances, you know, each
Speaker 13: night of the convention, but this is the first time
Speaker 13: that we're going to get to hear from him. This
Speaker 13: is somebody who, look, you know, whether you like him
Speaker 13: or you don't like him. As somebody who has a
Speaker 13: reputation well earned for showmanship, former television host, you should
Speaker 13: expect the stage management of this to be nailed down,
Speaker 13: right And again, as I say, Nathan, you know Trump,
Speaker 13: the nation has had four years of Donald Trump as president.
Speaker 13: If you like him or if you don't like him,
Speaker 13: you know what you're getting, right, Like, there's there's nobody
Speaker 13: in the United States who don't know who Donald J.
Speaker 13: Trump is. But this is also a guy who, for
Speaker 13: the first time really in his electoral history, finds himself
Speaker 13: as a general election favorite.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 13: He never was against Hillary Clinton. She was favored the
Speaker 13: entire way according to poles and analysts and things like that.
Speaker 13: Trump now is is in a situation where the betting
Speaker 13: markets are saying that he's likely to win. You're seeing
Speaker 13: movements and all of that, and so this is a
Speaker 13: different position for him. He's also come off of a
Speaker 13: you know, a time when he was literally shot in
Speaker 13: the air giving a speech. You know, we're in uncharted
Speaker 13: moments here for Donald Trump. I think there's gonna be
Speaker 13: a lot of interest in how he handles this.
