AXELROD: “There are a lot of Americans who want to turn the page on the kind of craziness that we‘ve seen from Donald Trump, this kind of incessant divisiveness and focus on his political enemies instead of on the problems of the American people. When she said — I just want to repeat this again, I would love to hear this a hundred times between now and Election Day — ‘He‘s got an enemies list, I‘ve got a to-do list,’ I think this is the vulnerability of Donald Trump.”
URBAN: “I think you‘re a better campaigner than she is. They need you.”
AXELROD: “No, no, someone — she said it.”
BURNETT: “The Wall Street Journal just said, ‘Who is who is going to bring needed change?’ in the sub of this poll. 40% her — 47 or 49, I can’t read my number here, for him. But you get the point, though.”
Jones: “Look, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are not taking the same exam. I think it bothers people. They‘re not taking the same exam. He gets to be lawless. She has to be flawless. That‘s what‘s unfair.”
FARAH GRIFFIN: “That was good.”
Jones: “That‘s what‘s unfair tonight. That‘s what‘s unfair tonight. They‘re not taking the same exam. Look, she has policies, she may not articulate them perfectly every time, she may not put the stories in the right places, but she‘s fighting for actual ideas that will help real people. And he‘s talking about people‘s penises. And so they are not taking the same exam, and that‘s pissing people off. It‘s pissing me off.”
FARAH GRIFFIN:” And I‘m also old enough to remember that if your fiscal plans were actually said to bankrupt the Social Security trust fund in sooner years, Donald Trump‘s, that would be a campaign-destroying issue. But we just gloss over things with Donald Trump. There‘s so much that‘s thrown at us, we just don‘t even digest.”
URBAN: “I would just say this. People must have such — they just they don‘t believe her. Obviously, they just don‘t believe her at all. Because if they did, Van, she‘d be soaring in the polls. She would be — “
BURNETT: “Her unfavorables in The Wall Street Journal poll that just came out are higher than his.”
URBAN: “Her unfavorables aren’t?”
BURNETT: “Her unfavorables.”
URBAN: “Her unfavorables are higher.”
Jones: “By the way, nobody believes Trump. Nobody believes Trump. Not even Trump.”
