Lisa Boothe: Trump is 'running against almost the entirety of the media'

>> Martha: ONE WEEK AWAY FROM THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION ON SUNDAY IN CHICAGO AND THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. JUST THREE WEEKS SINCE PRESIDENT BIDEN DROPPED OUT OF THIS RACE AND ESSENTIALLY DISAPPEARED FROM THE ELECTION-YEAR LANDSCAPE AND WHILE THE VICE PRESIDENT HAS REALLY BEEN DRINKING IN THE RELIEF RESPONSE AND HAVING, YOU KNOW, GOOD SUCCESS WITH POLLING AND RESPONSE, VOTERS ARE WAITING FOR SOME MEAT ON THE BONES ACCORDING TO MANY OF THE NEWS OUTLETS AND REPORTING. THERE'S BEEN NO NEWS CONFERENCES OR INTERVIEWS YET. HERE'S THE WASHINGTON POST EDITORIAL BOARD. WHAT ELECTIONS AREN'T ABOUT WINNING THEIR ABOUT CORRECT -- ACCUMULATING POLITICAL CAPITAL FROM AN AGENDA WHICH MISS HARRIS CAN'T DO UNLESS SHE ARTICULATES ONE. DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKERS TELLS THE PLAYBOOK TODAY WHY WOULD WE START TALKING ABOUT POLICY? WE ARE ACTUALLY BETTER OFF JUST RUNNING ON THIS REAL WAVE OF ENTHUSIASM AND ENERGY, THE BEST THING HARRIS CAN DO THEY SAY. SHE SAYS THAT MORE DETAILS WILL COME NEXT WEEK. >> WIN CAN WE EXPECT YOU TO ROLL IT THE POLICY PLATFORMS? >> NEXT WEEK. IT'LL BE FOCUSED ON THE ECONOMY AND WHAT WE CAN DO TO BRING DOWN AND ALSO STRENGTHEN THE ECONOMY. >> Martha: WE ARE JOINED BY A FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND A FORMER CLINTON ADVISOR AND CEO. THANK YOU FOR HAVING US. THESE ARE THE POSITIONS SHE WILL BE CHALLENGED ON. BASED ON WHAT SHE HAS SET HERSELF. LET'S WATCH THIS TO START US OFF >> WE'VE GOT TO CRITICALLY RE-EXAMINE ICE. THING ABOUT STARTING FROM SCRATCH. I AM PREPARED TO GET RID OF THE FILIBUSTER TO PASS A GREEN NEW DEAL. THERE'S NO QUESTION I'M IN FAVOR OF BANNING FRACKING. >> WOULD YOU BE CHANGING THE DIETARY GUIDELINES? >> YES, I WOULD. WE NEED TO HAVE MEDICARE FOR ALL AND A BUYBACK PROGRAM AND I SUPPORT A MANDATORY BUYBACK PROGRAM. >> Martha: LISA LET ME START WITH YOU. SHE IS ESSENTIALLY SAID THROUGH HER CAMPAIGN THAT SHE HAS REVERSED HER OPINION ON A NUMBER OF THOSE THINGS INCLUDING FRACKING, MANDATORY BUYBACKS AND THE NEW AD SHOWS HER DEMONSTRATING SHE IS VERY TOUGH ON THE BORDER. YOU'RE STARTS ON WHERE THIS IS GOING POLICY -WISE? >> SHE'S RUNNING ADDS RIGHT NOW IN ARIZONA AND NEVADA, SAYING SHE IS TOUGH ON THE BORDER DESPITE THE FACT THAT SHE HAS CALLED ICE, COMPARED ICE TO THE KKK AND CALLED FOR ABOLISHING ICE AND ALSO BORDER LETTING IN OVER 10 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS. THAT'S A CHALLENGE FOR FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. HE'S NOT JUST RUNNING AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS, HE'S RUNNING AGAINST THE ENTIRETY OF THE MEDIA. 99 PERCENT OF THE MEDIA BOTH HARRIS AND PROPAGANDIST IN THE MEDIA ARE DEAD SET ON MAKING THIS A SUBSTANCE FREE ELECTION. IT'S ABOUT VIBES AND ABOUT BEING HAPPY AND ABOUT NOT BEING ANYTHING OF SUBSTANCE. I'VE WORKED IN POLITICS FOR A LONG TIME, I HAVE NEVER SEEN A CANDIDATE NOT HAVING A SINGLE ISSUE ON THEIR CAMPAIGN WEBSITE. PARTICULARLY RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IT'S ALMOST CRIMINAL, IT'S INSANE. >> Martha: MARK I THINK SHE WILL BE JUDGED ON HER JOB AS VICE PRESIDENT AND ESPECIALLY IN THE LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT IT APPEARS THAT JOE BIDEN, YOU KNOW, WAS NOT FIT TO RUN AGAIN. PUSHED OUT BY HIS OWN PARTY BASED ON THAT AND SAID HE COULDN'T WIN. I THINK ONE OF THE FAIR QUESTIONS IS, YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH OF A HAND DID SHE HAVE IN RUNNING THESE THINGS? BECAUSE WE DO HAVE 12 MILLION PEOPLE, AT LEAST 10 MILLION ACROSS THE BORDER ON HER WATCH. THOSE ARE FAIR QUESTIONS RIGHT? >> THERE ARE A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT ARE FAIR, WHAT'S HER ECONOMIC POLICY AND WHERE SHE ON THE BORDER. WHAT DID SHE DO AS PART OF THIS ADMINISTRATION, HOW DID SHE SEPARATE HERSELF FROM THE ADMINISTRATION. SO FAR GOOD LUCK GETTING ANSWERS TO ANY OF THOSE QUESTIONS. I THINK THE PUBLIC IS RELIEVED THAT JOE BIDEN HAS DROPPED OUT. THERE BEING AN ALTERNATIVE TO TRUMP. SOME PEOPLE CALL IT A SUGAR HIGH BUT IT'S AS THOUGH SHE HELD THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION ALREADY. IT'LL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF SHE GETS ANY MORE MILEAGE OUT OF THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION AND THEN THE ELECTION WILL BEGIN IN EARNEST HERE, WHERE THE TERM CAMPAIGN IS GOING TO HAVE TO GET SOME SALIENCE IN THE DIFFERENCES OF POSITIONS AND HERS. >> Martha: LISA LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE BATTLEGROUND POOLS. THESE ARE THE NEWEST ON NEW YORK TIMES AND IT'S A FLIP-FLOP FROM WHAT WE SAW PRIOR TO THIS WHERE TRUMP WAS AHEAD. SHE'S AHEAD ACCORDING TO THIS FOUR POINTS IN MICHIGAN AND WISCONSIN. WHAT DO THEY ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP'S RESPONSE AND HOW HE HAS HANDLED THE NEW RACE HE IS IN? >> IT'S CHALLENGING MARTHA. WE ARE IN THE FOG OF WAR IN A SENSE. WE HAD AN ASSASSINATION A MONTH AGO, AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT. A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DROPPED OFF VIA X. AN ENTIRELY KNEW DEMOCRATIC TICKET IN THE LAST MONTH. THERE'S A LOT OF CHAOS WITH THAT. I THINK WE NEED TO SEE THE FORMER PRESIDENT GET FOCUS. HE ASKED ON X. TODAY, YOU KNOW, WERE YOU BETTER OFF NOW THAN YOU WERE FOUR YEARS AGO? AND OF COURSE THE ANSWER IS NO. WE KNOW THAT KAMALA HARRIS STANDS FOR EVEN THOUGH SHE DOESN'T WANT TO ADMIT THE TRUTH TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. SHE WOULD BE A CONTINUATION OF THE SAME FAILED POLICIES, MORE CRIME AND MORE OPEN BORDERS. MORE INFLATION AND MORE WARS AND MORE CHAOS. IF ANYTHING IT WOULD BE COMPOUNDED BECAUSE SHE'S EVEN FURTHER TO THE LEFT THAN JOE BIDEN. BUT WE NEED TO SEE THE FORMER PRESIDENT DAY IN AND DAY OUT EVERY OPPORTUNITY GIVING PRESS CONFERENCES AND TRYING TO CHANGE THE NARRATIVE ON HIS OWN. TELLING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT STORY AND THE FACT WE DON'T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS. THERE IS A BETTER WAY BUT HE HAS TO STAY DISCIPLINED AND SELL THAT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. >> Martha: MARK QUICK THOUGHT ON THIS. ELON MUSK TONIGHT, IS THAT A VENUE THAT YOU THINK COULD POTENTIALLY BE HELPFUL TO HIM? MUSK AND HIS PACK ARE REALLY FOCUSED ON DRIVING OUT VOTERS FOR THE REPUBLICAN SIDE IN THE BATTLEGROUND STATES. >> SURE. I THINK IT WILL BE AN INTERESTING VENUE. I THINK TRUMP HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET HIS MESSAGE OUT. I THINK HE'S HEARD FROM EVERY REPUBLICAN CONSULTANT AND DONOR, THAT HE HAS BEEN MESSING UP OUT THERE FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. WHILE SHE HAS BEEN DOING QUITE WELL. IT'LL BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HIM TO GET THROUGH MAY BE 50 M
