00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Out with the birds. The Eagles are in town tonight.

2
00:00:02.640 --> 00:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>Every high school football game imaginable is going to be played,

3
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.439
<v Speaker 1>including yours truly, will be at the Deer Park Madeerra game.

4
00:00:08.519 --> 00:00:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Flipping the coin get things started. And the coin that

5
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:14.119
<v Speaker 1>will flip was given to me by Colonel brad Winstrip

6
00:00:14.359 --> 00:00:17.480
<v Speaker 1>after twenty five years of service. He has retired, and

7
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>we're going to use that coin tonight and so much more.

8
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:25.359
<v Speaker 1>But as we continue, Brian Entton is the senior correspondent

9
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:28.679
<v Speaker 1>to senior national correspondent for News Nation. He's won every

10
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.399
<v Speaker 1>award the news media can give someone, including Emmys, etc.

11
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.520
<v Speaker 1>And he was given a special assignment the last few

12
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:38.520
<v Speaker 1>days by News Nation and Sean Compton to go into

13
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:41.560
<v Speaker 1>certain battleground states and elsewhere to get the temperature of

14
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the American people on the ground. Polls are interesting. I

15
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>don't trust polls anyway. Nonetheless, Brian Entton, welcome again to

16
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, Brian Nton

17
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>of News Nation, what was your mission as given to

18
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the last several days by Sean Compton.

19
00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thanks for having me, Bill. So it's actually two

20
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:03.000
<v Speaker 2>weeks driving across the entire country, Bill, which is so cool.

21
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:06.239
<v Speaker 2>We're starting in New Jersey and we're gonna work our

22
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.599
<v Speaker 2>way all the way across and end in California. It's

23
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.400
<v Speaker 2>gonna take about two weeks. We're about almost halfway in,

24
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:15.079
<v Speaker 2>and you know, the mission was Look, I mean, I

25
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Speaker 2>was just sick of following the political campaigns around. You

26
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:21.079
<v Speaker 2>go to the rallies on both sides. You know exactly

27
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.959
<v Speaker 2>what you're going to hear from the people. You hear

28
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.439
<v Speaker 2>the same thing over and over again. And we were like,

29
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.719
<v Speaker 2>why don't we just get out, hit the road, get

30
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:33.439
<v Speaker 2>on I eighty and just talk to real voters, not

31
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:37.239
<v Speaker 2>planned too much, and just see what real Americans think.

32
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:39.480
<v Speaker 2>And it's just been so cool too, just like getting

33
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:42.000
<v Speaker 2>out into real America and getting off the campaign trail.

34
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:42.680
<v Speaker 2>It's been awesome.

35
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.319
<v Speaker 3>And you get paid for this.

36
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>I would love to be with a buddy or too,

37
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:52.400
<v Speaker 1>have my employer pay me simply to travel, have some

38
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 1>nice lunch, nice dinner, and talk to people.

39
00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:56.760
<v Speaker 3>Not a bad gig, would you agree.

40
00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:57.439
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

41
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.159
<v Speaker 2>Someone joked with me on X and said, and you

42
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:02.359
<v Speaker 2>get to put all this on your expense report, because

43
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, we've been having cony dogs. We

44
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.159
<v Speaker 2>stop at dairy queen. We you know, get donuts everywhere,

45
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.680
<v Speaker 2>so we're trying to make the best of it. You know,

46
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:11.599
<v Speaker 2>it's been really fun.

47
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:13.479
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get down to work. You had a

48
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>posting the other day about New Jersey JP tries to

49
00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.599
<v Speaker 1>flip state to red. I perceive in the Midwest, I

50
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:22.719
<v Speaker 1>love it as you know in Cincinnati, and I perceive

51
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:29.039
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey like New York and Connecticut, lost, dysfunctional, high taxes,

52
00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>citizens unhappy, lots of crime, especially in and around Newark,

53
00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:35.879
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. What did you find in New Jersey when

54
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:38.199
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans try to flip that state to normalcy?

55
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:41.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was interesting. In New Jersey, we really focused

56
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 2>on suburban women because there's a lot of them outside

57
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.120
<v Speaker 2>the cities, and so we met up with a bunch

58
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:51.400
<v Speaker 2>of women a couple of days and a couple interesting things.

59
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.759
<v Speaker 2>You know. We met one life long Democrat who for

60
00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 2>the very first time is going to vote Republican for Trump,

61
00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 2>and the reason is parental rights. You know, she's really

62
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:06.439
<v Speaker 2>concerned about things happening in her kids school. You know,

63
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:08.240
<v Speaker 2>they've got these laws there where you know, you they

64
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.520
<v Speaker 2>can put your kid in counseling and do all sorts

65
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.199
<v Speaker 2>of stuff and they don't have to tell the parents

66
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 2>in New Jersey, which really upsets some of these moms

67
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>to the point of you know, their they're Democrats, but

68
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.039
<v Speaker 2>they're like, what is going on? Why how can this happen?

69
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:22.159
<v Speaker 4>Like these are our kids.

70
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.680
<v Speaker 2>So for that reason, there's there were a lot that

71
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:26.599
<v Speaker 2>we spoke to that said, you know, they're gonna they're

72
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna switch over. On the contrary, you know, there were

73
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:34.000
<v Speaker 2>there were some lifelong Republicans who are really fired up

74
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.680
<v Speaker 2>about the abortion issue and are considering voting Democrats for

75
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>the first time. So we kind of saw it go

76
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:41.719
<v Speaker 2>both ways.

77
00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:44.639
<v Speaker 1>There and in New Jersey has among the most liberal

78
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:48.479
<v Speaker 1>abortion laws in the country as I speak, So abortion

79
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.479
<v Speaker 1>is not on the ballot anywhere as far as a

80
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.960
<v Speaker 1>national issue, because it's a state's issue in New Jersey,

81
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:58.479
<v Speaker 1>by the way, much like Ohio. Ohio has uh the

82
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:00.680
<v Speaker 1>most liberal abortion law in the country.

83
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:01.599
<v Speaker 3>We voted for that.

84
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.319
<v Speaker 1>Not me, but fifty seven percent of us said that

85
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>killing unborn babies is fine. From the moment of conception

86
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>through birth, it's okay. And I think people vote yes

87
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.520
<v Speaker 1>or no an abortion. But there's so many gradations and

88
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:17.199
<v Speaker 1>so many different kinds and at what point six weeks

89
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:19.040
<v Speaker 1>there is a heartbeat, and can you do it at

90
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:21.879
<v Speaker 1>ten weeks? For Ohio went all the way up to

91
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 1>the moment of birth, and as did New Jersey. Let's

92
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Speaker 1>talk briefly about a report you filed in about Michigan. Now, Michigan,

93
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:33.120
<v Speaker 1>unlike New Jersey and Ohio, I think, is one of

94
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:36.720
<v Speaker 1>those battleground states. And it's a heavily unionized state. It's

95
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 1>like Pennsylvania's heavily unionized. But also fracking is a big issue.

96
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.879
<v Speaker 1>What were the big issues in Michigan. I see you're

97
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:47.079
<v Speaker 1>posting about Michigan union workers still undecided tell the American people.

98
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.120
<v Speaker 2>The mission was, Yeah, it was fascinating, and you know,

99
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:51.879
<v Speaker 2>it's close there, and like you said, it's one of

100
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:53.959
<v Speaker 2>the big swing states that really is going to have

101
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:58.439
<v Speaker 2>an impact. So we went out to the different auto plans,

102
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 2>which you know, you've got the union that have these

103
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 2>rallies and they're behind Harris, and they want you to

104
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.279
<v Speaker 2>believe that all of the workers support Harris, and if

105
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 2>you try to coordinate through them, it's like you kind

106
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.839
<v Speaker 2>of get a slanted view. So we decided, I said,

107
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:12.720
<v Speaker 2>we kind of keep it unplanned. We're like, let's go

108
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 2>out at shift change to some of these plants, because

109
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 2>that's when everybody comes out and goes to their cars

110
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.720
<v Speaker 2>in the parking lot and then leaves and then new

111
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:22.639
<v Speaker 2>people come in. So we had to sneak into the

112
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:24.759
<v Speaker 2>parking lot. We went to the Ford Plan just to

113
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 2>try to get like a pulse with the regular workers,

114
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.319
<v Speaker 2>and it was interesting. A lot of them are Trump supporters,

115
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 2>which the union doesn't really want you to know. And

116
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.240
<v Speaker 2>then there were a lot of undecided, a lot which

117
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:39.439
<v Speaker 2>surprised me, who said they still haven't decided. There were

118
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:43.040
<v Speaker 2>a couple of women we spoke to African Americans who

119
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>like Harris, who said, look, I like her. I really

120
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.000
<v Speaker 2>like the idea of you know, the first black president,

121
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.319
<v Speaker 2>female president, black female president, but said, you know, at

122
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:56.240
<v Speaker 2>the same time, I've got five kids. I can't afford

123
00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.319
<v Speaker 2>my grocery bills. I made more money when Trump was

124
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:03.439
<v Speaker 2>an office, I got more overtime here at the Ford plant.

125
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:06.920
<v Speaker 2>And they were struggling with like not they don't really

126
00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:09.800
<v Speaker 2>like Trump, but they were kind of leaning towards voting

127
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 2>for him just based on their paychecks.

128
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:14.319
<v Speaker 1>Kind of like who do you dislike the least or

129
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:17.279
<v Speaker 1>dislike the most. And I can't imagine you and I

130
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:19.800
<v Speaker 1>have been involved in this for a long time, but nonetheless,

131
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine some undecided voter a few days before

132
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:27.319
<v Speaker 1>the election. How can you be how can you be undecided?

133
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:31.399
<v Speaker 2>Listen? You know you would be surprised. And I think

134
00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:34.079
<v Speaker 2>that's one of the kind of fascinating things that's come

135
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:36.000
<v Speaker 2>out of this road trip is you watch the news

136
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:38.920
<v Speaker 2>and you think everybody's decided, there really are a lot

137
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.160
<v Speaker 2>of undecided and you know in some of these states

138
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:44.879
<v Speaker 2>like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and in Pennsylvania we went you know,

139
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:47.639
<v Speaker 2>we focused on black men because you know, Harris is

140
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:49.879
<v Speaker 2>having issues with them. We went to a bunch of barbershops.

141
00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:52.199
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's not going to take that many people

142
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:57.439
<v Speaker 2>to possibly swing some of these states. So yeah, people

143
00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:01.240
<v Speaker 2>are under side again. There's people that like Trump's policies

144
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.360
<v Speaker 2>but don't like his personality and are still sort of

145
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:09.079
<v Speaker 2>wavering over you know, how they're going to go. But

146
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:10.920
<v Speaker 2>back to Michiganville. I don't know if you've ever been

147
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:12.920
<v Speaker 2>to the auto plants, just the side note, I mean,

148
00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:16.319
<v Speaker 2>it was I'd never been. It's so cool to think

149
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:18.319
<v Speaker 2>that you know, you've got these Americans that I meant

150
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 2>that are making the cars there, and they have so

151
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:21.319
<v Speaker 2>much pride.

152
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:22.879
<v Speaker 3>I mean, everybody drives.

153
00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:24.439
<v Speaker 2>A Ford that works at the Ford plant. You see

154
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 2>just like thousands of Fords in the parking lot. It

155
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:29.639
<v Speaker 2>was again, it was a neat experienced politics aside just

156
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:30.279
<v Speaker 2>getting to do this.

157
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.360
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of like a thing in the auto workers.

158
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:34.600
<v Speaker 1>If you work at a Ford plant or a Chevy plant,

159
00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>don't come in with a Honda. It's like, yeah, that

160
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>does not happen. Correct, No, And we I.

161
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Luckily we've got a Ford Expedition rental that we're driving

162
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.680
<v Speaker 2>like DoD And I told my photographer, I'm like, thank

163
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:48.800
<v Speaker 2>god we've got this car, because I don't think they

164
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:50.160
<v Speaker 2>would have led us in the parking lot.

165
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:54.279
<v Speaker 1>And literally now. Brian Anton of News Nation, Pennsylvania's another

166
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>another terribly important state. Did you have a sense what

167
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:02.839
<v Speaker 1>role fracking has because tens of thousands of jobs ancillary

168
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:10.279
<v Speaker 1>jobs critical in Pennsylvania, plus working staffs large numbers in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin.

169
00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:12.600
<v Speaker 1>What was your sense of driving through Pennsylvania.

170
00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:17.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, we didn't focus much on fracking. We were

171
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:22.560
<v Speaker 2>we were really focused on the blackmail vote. That was

172
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.800
<v Speaker 2>kind of our focus, just because the polling has shown

173
00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:29.199
<v Speaker 2>that Harris is having issues. And again, you know, people

174
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:33.600
<v Speaker 2>just assume in inner city Philadelphia that you know, all

175
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>the African Americans are going for Harris. And we went

176
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:39.960
<v Speaker 2>into a couple of these barbershops. It was fascinating, and

177
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:42.120
<v Speaker 2>I would I mean, at least half of the men

178
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:45.440
<v Speaker 2>we spoke to were Trump supporters. They felt abandoned by

179
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:50.240
<v Speaker 2>the Democratic Party. They felt like they hadn't been investing

180
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:52.840
<v Speaker 2>in their communities, they were taking them for granted. And

181
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:54.799
<v Speaker 2>then crime, I mean, crime is I don't know if

182
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:59.159
<v Speaker 2>you've been to Philly lately, Bill, they're homeless people everywhere.

183
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.679
<v Speaker 2>There's these motorcycle gangs driving around. I mean, it feels

184
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:05.639
<v Speaker 2>lawless in a lot of areas. And in some of

185
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:07.519
<v Speaker 2>these places where these barbershops that you know, they get

186
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.919
<v Speaker 2>broken into over and over again. It's a real problem.

187
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:13.759
<v Speaker 2>And they're just like, you know, they believe that Trump

188
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:15.200
<v Speaker 2>is the one who's going to crack down on it.

189
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:17.639
<v Speaker 3>So quality of life.

190
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Speaker 1>I was in Philadelphia one time, and this was like

191
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>ten years ago. It was somewhat functional and practically and

192
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 1>you've been in many more American, large American cities than

193
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>I've been recently. And I would think that homelessness and

194
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:35.799
<v Speaker 1>motorcycle gangs, especially illegal immigrants, and crime and the cost

195
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.320
<v Speaker 1>of insurance. Many of these small black businesses can't afford

196
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:42.039
<v Speaker 1>insurance because it's through the roof, and the fact that

197
00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:45.720
<v Speaker 1>taxes were high, protection is low, especially among women. Did

198
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.559
<v Speaker 1>you hear much, Brian about a big issue that Democrats

199
00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:52.200
<v Speaker 1>want to run on again, which is abortion, which is

200
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:55.080
<v Speaker 1>the killing of unborn babies. Was that brought up by

201
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>anyone that you spoke.

202
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:00.879
<v Speaker 2>With, you know, in silly I would say the crime

203
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.360
<v Speaker 2>was the bigger issue, and you hit the nail on

204
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.679
<v Speaker 2>the head. I mean, it impacts the minority areas more.

205
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:08.919
<v Speaker 2>And you know, they've got these businesses that are getting

206
00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:12.720
<v Speaker 2>broken into over and over again. So that was that

207
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 2>seemed to be the bigger issue right in the inner

208
00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:17.559
<v Speaker 2>city there. Trying to think back to what some of

209
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:20.279
<v Speaker 2>the folks were telling us, just I mean, you know,

210
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.759
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to live there in some of the areas

211
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.240
<v Speaker 2>when you know you've got people throwing rocks through your window,

212
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:29.720
<v Speaker 2>coming in, grabbing your cat, you know, your register with

213
00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:32.879
<v Speaker 2>your cash, you got home with people that camp out

214
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:35.840
<v Speaker 2>outside your your business, and then your customers don't want

215
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 2>to come in, and the police are so busy in

216
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:39.559
<v Speaker 2>the short staff that if you call, they're not going

217
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:41.759
<v Speaker 2>to come because you've got a homeless person outside. They're

218
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:44.840
<v Speaker 2>dealing with murders and stuff. So that seemed to be

219
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.159
<v Speaker 2>more of the concern right there in the inner.

220
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:51.240
<v Speaker 1>City right anton the issue of Donald Trump. Some said,

221
00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:53.759
<v Speaker 1>why did the trump Ster go to a barber shop

222
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>in the Bronx in New York?

223
00:10:56.159 --> 00:11:02.120
<v Speaker 3>And that is exactly the kind of hand to hand, eyeball.

224
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:05.919
<v Speaker 1>To eyeball contact that Donald Trump is wonderful with. And

225
00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I watch repeatedly on one of your competitors, Fox News,

226
00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:13.759
<v Speaker 1>about him sitting there, and I know that Cuomo also

227
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:16.879
<v Speaker 1>dealt with it, as that Leland vintert about hand to hand,

228
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:19.840
<v Speaker 1>eye to eye going in there. That angered many Democrats

229
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:22.200
<v Speaker 1>because I dare Donald Trump to go into the black

230
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:25.200
<v Speaker 1>community and sit down. And is the reaction that you

231
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:29.399
<v Speaker 1>saw with Cuomo and vittered in the black barbershop similar

232
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to the kind of reaction you got in Philadelphia that

233
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:33.679
<v Speaker 1>we'd love to have Donald Trump come in here and

234
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>sit with us.

235
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think again, the reason I'm so glad we

236
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:41.879
<v Speaker 2>did this series. Is because when you watch the news

237
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:45.600
<v Speaker 2>and you see the people on the extreme on either side,

238
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.759
<v Speaker 2>it looks so divisive and it looks like everyone on

239
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.200
<v Speaker 2>the right hates Harris and everyone on the left hates Trump,

240
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:55.600
<v Speaker 2>and it's just this just combative you know, they want

241
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:58.879
<v Speaker 2>to beat him up, and you go out into just

242
00:11:58.919 --> 00:12:01.759
<v Speaker 2>talking to regular people. I just don't think it's that extreme.

243
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.559
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't think people think that like Trump is

244
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>an awful guy the people in the middle, you know,

245
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>and and same for Harrit. So you know, like when

246
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.559
<v Speaker 2>you it's like, oh my gosh, Trump went in the barbershop,

247
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:15.799
<v Speaker 2>how crazy is this? Like I mean when we went

248
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.200
<v Speaker 2>to the barbershop in Philly, half the the African American

249
00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:21.559
<v Speaker 2>men were voting for Trump. I would say maybe more

250
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:24.360
<v Speaker 2>than half. So I think it's sort of this picture

251
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:28.759
<v Speaker 2>that you get when you watch the mainstream news. They

252
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.279
<v Speaker 2>want you to think that it's more divisive than it

253
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:33.679
<v Speaker 2>really is. Like most of these Americans we're talking to

254
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.200
<v Speaker 2>are just trying to afford daycare for their kid. They're

255
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.080
<v Speaker 2>just want a bigger paycheck. They just want to feel

256
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:42.960
<v Speaker 2>like when they call nine to one one the police

257
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>are going to come, you.

258
00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:45.519
<v Speaker 3>Know, and that doesn't happen.

259
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 1>It does not happen that the place say, well, deal

260
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.480
<v Speaker 1>with it yourself, and that is so you pay so

261
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.440
<v Speaker 1>much in taxes, rules and regulations, and they're hit nine

262
00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.480
<v Speaker 1>to one one saying, hey, I got two homeless guys,

263
00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:58.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm jostling my patrons, or there's a rock through my window,

264
00:12:58.600 --> 00:12:59.559
<v Speaker 1>which is a disaster.

265
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, like, there's no big deal.

266
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.639
<v Speaker 1>But if you've had your car broken into, and you

267
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:05.879
<v Speaker 1>have to deal with your car being broken into. Here

268
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:08.559
<v Speaker 1>in Cincinnati, there was a report last night that there

269
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:11.120
<v Speaker 1>were hundreds of car breakings and a part of the

270
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:13.759
<v Speaker 1>city of Cincinnati, which is a regular event, and the

271
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:17.080
<v Speaker 1>place generally don't show up because car break ins are

272
00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:19.799
<v Speaker 1>no big deal. But when your window is shattered or

273
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:22.200
<v Speaker 1>your car a Hyundai or a Kia is stolen to

274
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:25.039
<v Speaker 1>an individual, that is a really big deal, and the

275
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:27.919
<v Speaker 1>place aren't responding in many big cities, correct.

276
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, And in Philly, like we went to this

277
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.840
<v Speaker 2>little macaroni shop downtown at these two women own really

278
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:36.679
<v Speaker 2>just a cute little place, you know, and it's very popular.

279
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:40.600
<v Speaker 2>People love their macaroni, and they have had their window

280
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.000
<v Speaker 2>broken two or three times in the front, like a

281
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:45.639
<v Speaker 2>big store front window and it's just these two women.

282
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:46.639
<v Speaker 2>It's a small business.

283
00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:48.679
<v Speaker 4>Like that's a really big deal.

284
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:52.600
<v Speaker 2>It's very expensive to fix those big windows in the front.

285
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:55.639
<v Speaker 2>And like you said, I mean, you might just hear that,

286
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:57.440
<v Speaker 2>oh they had a broken window, But think about it. If

287
00:13:57.440 --> 00:13:59.799
<v Speaker 2>you have a small business they pay a couple of employees,

288
00:14:00.039 --> 00:14:03.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're not making a lot of money. That

289
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 2>really sets them back, and it also just makes them

290
00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:08.840
<v Speaker 2>feel unsafe there, you know, and that no one really

291
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:10.279
<v Speaker 2>cares all right. Now.

292
00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Lastly, in Ohio, we have a big Senate race between

293
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:17.519
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Marino and Shared Brown. I would anticipate that unless

294
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:21.399
<v Speaker 1>something dramatic occurs, that the Republicans are going to seize

295
00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:24.200
<v Speaker 1>control of the Senate with fifty one votes because of

296
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:27.559
<v Speaker 1>Montana and West Virginia. But if this race flips and

297
00:14:27.600 --> 00:14:30.960
<v Speaker 1>then it's completely different, and the only ads being run

298
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>by Shared Brown is against Bernie Marino. On abortion in Ohio,

299
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.840
<v Speaker 1>which we voted, as I said a year ago, to

300
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:42.320
<v Speaker 1>have the most liberal, much more liberal than Roe versus Wade,

301
00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and we voted fifty seven percent to allow abortion up

302
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>through birth. But that's still a big issue in Ohio.

303
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:51.960
<v Speaker 1>According to Shared Brown, I sense among voters and is

304
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.799
<v Speaker 1>not that big of an issue because other ones take presidents.

305
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:57.639
<v Speaker 1>What did you sense about the race between Bernie Marino

306
00:14:57.679 --> 00:14:59.000
<v Speaker 1>and Shared Brown and the issues?

307
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:02.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, look, it was interesting. You would know

308
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.240
<v Speaker 2>way more about Ohio than me. We made two a

309
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:08.559
<v Speaker 2>couple of stops we drove through the state. There were

310
00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:15.159
<v Speaker 2>some Republicans we met who were big Trump supporters who

311
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:19.519
<v Speaker 2>seemed to still like Brown, which I thought was interesting,

312
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Like felt like he was looking out for Ohians in

313
00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:26.600
<v Speaker 2>a sense. Right, Just a bigger picture of Ohio that

314
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:28.480
<v Speaker 2>we focused on was and I don't think a lot

315
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:30.399
<v Speaker 2>of people remember. I mean then it was a really

316
00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:35.759
<v Speaker 2>big swing state, you know, twenty twenty and that there's

317
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:37.720
<v Speaker 2>been this shift there, right, So there were a lot

318
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:41.080
<v Speaker 2>more Democrats in Ohio just what five six years ago?

319
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:44.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was like a Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina.

320
00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:47.039
<v Speaker 2>You guys weren't play And it's almost like Florida because

321
00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:48.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm from Florida. You know, it used to be the

322
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.440
<v Speaker 2>same here and it's really gone much more.

323
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:52.360
<v Speaker 3>Red, Brian.

324
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:57.840
<v Speaker 1>It used to be Iowa, Ohio, and Florida. Those were

325
00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:01.159
<v Speaker 1>the swing states in fact, no republic and president in

326
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:06.039
<v Speaker 1>history other than Donald Trump one Iowa, Ohio and Florida

327
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:10.399
<v Speaker 1>and lost the general election. But now as American society advances,

328
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.600
<v Speaker 1>are regrades one way or another. Uh now the swing

329
00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:15.440
<v Speaker 1>states are different. One of the next few days, next

330
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:17.080
<v Speaker 1>few days. Where are you going the next few days?

331
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:17.440
<v Speaker 3>Brianan.

332
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:19.919
<v Speaker 2>By the way, we went to Center of the World.

333
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever heard of this place outside Cleveland. It's

334
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.039
<v Speaker 2>like this little town that they call the center of

335
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:27.879
<v Speaker 2>the World. Just thinking about it. We passed through there.

336
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:29.080
<v Speaker 2>That was cool.

337
00:16:30.039 --> 00:16:31.240
<v Speaker 4>So that was the cool part of OHIW.

338
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Next few days so we're doing Omaha, the Blue Dot

339
00:16:35.279 --> 00:16:36.720
<v Speaker 2>district there in Omaha.

340
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:37.600
<v Speaker 4>That could be really pivotal.

341
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:40.080
<v Speaker 2>And then we're just working our way across. We're going

342
00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:42.679
<v Speaker 2>to go through We're going to go through Utah, We're

343
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:45.200
<v Speaker 2>going to end up in California. We're going to Nevada

344
00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:48.120
<v Speaker 2>of course stake swing Steak and to talk to Latinos there.

345
00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:50.679
<v Speaker 2>So it's like I said, I mean, I can't complain

346
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:53.799
<v Speaker 2>right now. You know, it's pretty cool. It's people don't

347
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:56.279
<v Speaker 2>realize how cool America is. When you drive across the
