RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
Hearing from him.
>> So I‘ll just say my colleagues, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash have acquitted themselves as, as professional as they have covered campaigns and interviewed candidates from all sides of the aisle. I‘ll also say that if you talk to analysts, have debates, previous, that if you‘re attacking the moderators, you‘re usually losing. So I really want to focus in on what these two men are going to do and say, when they stand on the stage. Now, now we have a little bit of what Donald Trump, your boss has said in trying to set expectations for this debate, I want to play a sum of a series of his comments and then we‘ll talk about to watch maybe a better off losing the debate I‘ll make sure he says I lose it debate on purpose. Maybe I‘ll do something like that. I assume he‘s gonna be somebody that will be a worthy debater. Should I be tougher, nasty and just say you‘re the worst president in history or should I be nice and calm? And let him speak so he‘s basically saying there, well, will I let Joe Biden when it does seem as though many Republicans have set the bar very low in terms of arguing that Joe Biden is basically senile.
>> Now, you have people like Doug Burgum burgum coming out and saying, well, President Biden‘s very accomplished trying to set expectations in a different place. What do you expect that from Joe Biden well, first of all, it‘s to take someone five minutes to Google Jake Tapper, Donald Trump to see that Jake Tapper hi, ma‘am.
>> Consistent offers interview if you‘re going call adolf hilter, man I‘m going to style if you to attack my colleagues I would like to talk about bodied and Donald Trump, who you work for. Yes. If you are here to speak on his behalf and I have this conversation I am stating facts that your colleagues have stated in the package. Now, I‘m sorry, we‘re going to come back or Carolina, they very much for your time. You are welcome to come back at any point she is welcome to come back and speak about Donald Trump and Donald Trump will have equal time to Joe Biden when they both join us now at next, early, later this week in Atlanta for this debate, are thanks to Caroline John, that of course is something that we are going to see from the right, right. It‘s going to be attacks on how this debate is conducted. As you know, our colleagues Jake and Dana have played a role in our conversations throughout which they have interesting viewed candidates on both sides let‘s talk though again about the candidates and what they are going to do.
>> A look, what you just heard there. It as part of the strategy and it always has been and it works for Trump with his base. Does it work for Trump with the small slice of people he needs to get to win Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, I would argue, let‘s deal with policy. Let‘s do that with that is part of their strategy. Look again, this is a remarkably consequential moment for both of these men. If you look at this trolley cook of the cook political report about two weeks ago, wrote a great article about how this has been the most static race of his lifetime. And you haven‘t seen big swings in the polls often as you go through the summer, Kennedy a proposes something and the pole swing three or five points, Kennedy beak returns to that and the pulse swing back and forth. This race has been remarkably static, right? Slight advantage Trump Biden‘s come back a little bit after the convictions. Why hasn‘t it moved? Because so many people are unhappy with both choices. So it‘s not like you‘re going to jump back and forth a lot because you‘re just like if you‘re soft for Biden or software Trump you like. But I would argue from my travels to just beneath that static, are all the ingredients of volatility there‘s economic anxiety, there‘s the, there‘s the abortion question, there‘s the character of Trump issue. There‘s people who just don‘t
