President 236 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 3: Biden and former President Trump are inch and closer to 237 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 3: a twenty twenty four rematch after the Michigan primary, and 238 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 3: Congress maybe inch and closer to a voting a partial 239 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 3: government shutdown following a leader's meeting at the White House. 240 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 3: For more on all this, we're joined by Laura Davison, 241 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 3: Deputy Politics editor for Bloomberg News. So it was runaway 242 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: victories for both presidents Biden and Trump in Michigan. But 243 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: there's been a lot of focus, Laura on this uncommitted 244 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: vote on the Democratic side, This protest vote seems pretty 245 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 3: significant after the results last night. 246 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 17: Yeah, about thirteen percent of the vote that came in 247 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 17: was uncommitted, you know, not choosing Joe Biden nor any 248 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 17: of the alternatives Dean Phillips or Mary and Williamson on 249 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 17: the ballot. So this is a warning sign for the 250 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 17: Biden campaign. It doesn't you know, affect the primary, it 251 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 17: doesn't affect the delegates, but what it can do is, 252 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 17: you know, really show Biden where his weaknesses are in 253 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 17: a very key swing state going into twenty twenty four. 254 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 17: This is a state that Biden won in twenty twenty 255 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 17: and Trump won in twenty sixteen, and so Michigan as 256 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 17: well as sort of Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, those states all 257 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 17: there in the Upper Midwest are seen as sort of 258 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,119 Speaker 17: critical to twenty twenty four. And having this relatively significant 259 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 17: portion of the vote, you know, kind of lodged this 260 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 17: protest vote against Joe Biden, you know, is a worrying side. 261 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 3: For his campaign and the campaign behind this. Listen to 262 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: Michigan was focused specifically on President Biden's stand on the 263 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 3: war in Gaza. Could that point to a potential vulnerability 264 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: in a likely rematch with President Trump in November. 265 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 17: Yeah, this has been you know, an issue for both 266 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 17: Arab American voters, which there's a sizable population in Michigan, 267 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 17: as well as a lot of young voters. You know, 268 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 17: it's unclear exactly how big of a deal this will play, 269 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 17: you know, looking down eight months down the road. In November, 270 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 17: typically voters have voted more on domestic issues, things like immigration, 271 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 17: the economy, rather than foreign policy. But because of the 272 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 17: personal nature of this issue for many Americans as well 273 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 17: as just the amount of the response and how you know, 274 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 17: top of mind, this has been this could be an 275 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 17: issue or for President Biden in the fall. 276 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: And as for former President Trump, he did defeat Nikki 277 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 3: Haley by more than forty percentage points, I think, but 278 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 3: there's still a fairly significant vote for Nikki Haley. What 279 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 3: does that say about his potential in November. 280 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 17: Yeah, So Haley you know, only got a little bit 281 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 17: over a quarner of the vote in Michigan, and that's 282 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 17: less well than she has done both in New Hampshire 283 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 17: and South Carolina before this, But as you noted, it's 284 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 17: still a significant portion of the vote. You know, it's 285 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 17: not enough to win. It's not enough, you know, to 286 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 17: show that she sort of has momentum to beat Trump 287 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 17: at this point, but it shows that there's you know, 288 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 17: about one in four Republicans are not happy with Trump 289 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 17: and are you know, worried about you know, the variety 290 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 17: of risks he brings to the ticket. You know when 291 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 17: those legal his policies, and you know, this is really 292 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 17: you know where you saw the Haley vote come in 293 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 17: or some of these key areas that that you know, 294 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 17: may decide the twenty twenty four election, places like the suburbs, 295 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 17: women as well as college educated voters. 296 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 3: Our last minute, Laura, what can we say about the 297 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 3: odds of a potential government shutdown at the end of 298 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: the week. Following that White House meeting with the congressional 299 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 3: leaders yesterday, Those. 300 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 17: Are ticking down slightly. There was a meeting with the 301 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 17: top congressional leaders yesterday at the White House. You know, 302 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 17: they don't have a deal yet, though there are is 303 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 17: talk of some sort of short term continuing resolution as 304 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 17: would basically kick the can down the road. So instead 305 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 17: of having a deadline on Friday and next Friday, those 306 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 17: deadlines would be moved to next Friday and then later 307 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 17: in March. So we you know, will a Burg a 308 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 17: shutdown for right now? That would mean that, you know, 309 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 17: we would be on that cliff, you know, just a 310 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 17: couple of days down the road. 311 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 312 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 2: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 313 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 314 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 315 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 316 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 317 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 318 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 319 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 320 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 2: nine sixty in San Francisco. 321 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 322 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
