This is the major story of the week from the presidential campaign - someone seeking to be Commander in Chief blatantly lying to exploit people’s pain after a natural disaster CNN: “Fact check: Six days of Trump lies about the Hurricane Helene response” cnn.com/2024/10/06/pol…

I just want to be really clear about the situation here. 60 Minutes, the most venerable news program in the country, will run a long interview with Kamala Harris tomorrow. Her opponent won’t be featured in the same news special because he backed out of the interview.

Kamala Harris has an obligation to make her case to voters. Sometimes, that will include interviews with the Beltway press. But the harsh reality is that they don’t have the audience any potential president needs to win a national election. She needs to go where the people are.

If data suggested that doing an ABC interview every day until election day would reach the voters needed to win, both campaigns would probably do it. The fact that they decided to spend this much time doing podcasts says more about national media's reach than anything else.

Kudos to the AP for just the facts. We have one candidate for president who will fight this, and one who has accepted a $1 billion bribe from oil executives to make it worse as quickly as possible. A platform of crushing clean energy right now is madness. apnews.com/article/climat…

President Barack Obama: If Donald Trump doesn’t care that a mob that tried to attack his own vice president, do you really think he cares about you?

“We had one of the deadliest hurricanes in American history…President Biden and Vice President Harris were down there meeting with local officials, and comforting families, asking how they could help. And Donald Trump at a rally just started making up stories.” —Barack Obama

"Democrats’ clean energy plan is a clear counterpoint to the fecklessness of Texas Republican leaders and the dangers of Project 2025, which will accelerate emissions and allow polluters to poison our air and water." Read my newest op-ed via U.S. News & World Report: usnews.com/opinion/articl…

.Colin Allred’s closing argument: “You’re not actually there when people need you. Like when the lights went out. When 30 million Texans were relying on a senator to spring into action. He went to Cancún. That’s who [Ted Cruz] is.”

Always love the “Democratic strategists” who choose anonymity in these because they either don’t fully believe what they’re saying, or they think she still might win and want to stay on the good side if she does. Paragons of integrity and bravery, same as it ever was.

Right now the Trump campaign is saying the Fox interview was bad for Harris. At 1 am, Trump is going to contradict them and start attacking Fox for giving Harris airtime and letting her deliver a compelling message to their audience.

Moments like this are why you go on Fox News. VP Harris, talking at length about her plans to strengthen the economy and lower costs while Trump’s would spike inflation and explode deficits — things Fox viewers don’t usually get to hear about.

Q: Given the amount of the mounting evidence of climate change, do you still believe it's a hoax? Trump: I get awards environmental awards for the way I build it for the water, the way I use the water, the sand, the mixing of the sand and the water, I mean, many different, but

Trump is happy to go on Fox and Friends but too scared to go on the Shade Room, 60 Minutes, CNBC, NBC, and CNN. Total chickenshit.
