>>> 39 PAST THE HOUR. NOW BACK TO THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. TRUMP SAID IN AN INTERVIEW OVER THE WEEKEND THAT HE HAD A RIGHT TO INTERFERE WITH THE 2020 ELECTIONS. >> IT'S SO CRAZY THAT MY POLL NUMBERS GO UP. WHOEVER HEARD YOU GET INDICTED FOR INTERFERING WITH A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, WHERE YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO DO IT, YOU GET INDICTED AND YOUR POLL NUMBERS GO UP. >> WITH US, STEWART STEVENS, CHIEF STRATEGIST FOR ROMNEY'S 2012 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN, AND FORMER FLORIDA DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN, VALUE DEMING. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE RECENT COMMENTS BY TRUMP? >> I WANT TO REMIND HIM, HE HAS THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT. TRUMP CAN NEVER ADMIT HE'S DONE ANYTHING WRONG, AND THAT IT'S A TREMENDOUS WEAKNESS THAT IS EXPLOITED BY ALL HIS OPPONENTS. THE IDEA THAT HE COULD CALL -- WHAT HE'S SAYING IS HE COULD CALL PEOPLE IN GEORGIA FOR MORE VOTES AND IT'S NOT ILLEGAL. HE'S NOT DENNING HE DID IT. FIRST HE DOES DENY AND THEN HE SAYS, SO WHAT, AND THEN BRAGS ABOUT IT. LOOK, ANY IDEA THAT REPUBLICANS HAVE THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE A CHANGE IN TRUMP, THIS IS JUST WHAT EVERY REPUBLICAN OUT THERE HAS TO UNDERSTAND, THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE VOTING FOR. THIS IS NOT A CAFETERIA WHERE YOU LIKE TO PICK, I LIKE THE TAX CUTS OR I LIKE THIS, BUT I DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN THE RULE OF LAW, AND THIS IS WHAT YOU GET AND WHO YOU ARE IF YOU VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP. >> VAL, MEANWHILE THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN IS LAUNCHING A REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOMS IN FLORIDA, AND TRUMP HAS BEEN AMBIGUOUS WHEN IT COMES TO ABORTION RIGHTS, RIGHT? HOW IS THIS PLAYING OUT? >> GOOD TO BE WITH YOU, AND GOOD TO BE WITH STUART AS WELL. THERE HAS BEEN AN ALL-OUT ASSAULT ON PRODUCTIVE RIGHTS. THERE HAS BEEN A RESTRICTIVE BAN IN FLORIDA, AND I THINK IT'S QUITE FITTING. I THINK DONALD TRUMP HAS EARNED -- HE LIKES TO TALK ABOUT RIGHTS, HE EARNED THE RIGHT FOR THIS BUS TOUR TO START RIGHT IN FLORIDA, RIGHT AT HIS FRONT DOOR. WOMEN AND GIRLS AND THOSE WHO SUPPORT THEM HAVE TO SEND A LOUD MESSAGE THAT WE ARE GOING TO FLOOD THE POLLS ON NOVEMBER 5th AND PROTECT WOMEN'S RIGHTS. WE ARE EXCITED ABOUT THE BALLOT INITIATIVE IN FLORIDA, AND I BELIEVE, JOSÉ, WE ARE GOING TO SEE MASSIVE TURNOUT IN SUPPORT OF THE INITIATIVE. >> YOU THINK, VAL, THIS IS GOING TO HAVE A MASSIVE IMPACT NOVEMBER 5th? >> LET ME SAY THIS, WE ARE TAKING NOTHING FOR GRANTED. I WAS AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION AS A DELEGATE. MY HUSBAND AND I BOTH WERE. IT WAS A GREAT TIME. IT WAS A GREAT PARTY. BUT THE PARTY IS OVER. WE TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED. WE LOOK AT THE POLLS, AND I THINK -- I HOPE WE HAVE LEARNED OUR LESSON ABOUT COMPLETELY FOLLOWING POLLS, BUT I THINK VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS RIGHT ON POINT WHEN SHE SAYS SHE'S THE UNDERDOG AND WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO AND DON'T TAKE ANYTHING FOR GRANTED. LET ME SAY THIS, BEFORE VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS WENT TO THE TOP OF THE TICKET, PROTECTING WOMEN'S RIGHTS WERE ON TOP BEFORE, AND THEY ARE STILL DOING THAT. >> WE ARE JUST A WEEK AWAY FROM THE BIG DEBATE. HOW IMPORTANT IS IT FOR BOTH SIDES? >> THAT'S AN INTERESTING QUESTION. WHAT DOES EACH CAMPAIGN HOPE TO COME OUT OF THE DEBATE ACCOMPLISHING? I THINK IN THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN, THEY SHOULD HAVE A PRETTY SIMPLE TACTIC. YOU HAVE A PROSECUTOR. YOU HAVE A CRIMINAL. A LOT ABOUT THIS IS JUST LETTING A CANDIDATE PLAY TO THEIR STRENGTH AND MAKING SURE WHATEVER THEIR WEAKNESSES ARE THEY ARE NOT SO WEAK WHERE THEY LOSE ON THAT. I WOULD SAY GO ONSTAGE AND PROSECUTE THIS MAN, THE FIRST TIME IN THE OPENING STATEMENT, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY YOU HAVE A CRIMINAL STANDING ONSTAGE. I AM A PROSECUTOR AND I KNOW HOW TO DO THIS, AND PRESENT YOUR ARGUMENTS LIKE IN FRONT OF A JURY, AND AT THE END SAY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY, I HAVE PROVEN DONALD TRUMP IS UNFIT OR QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THIS REASON. AND FOR THE CANDIDATE LIKE TRUMP, EXPAND HIS BASE. HE LOST BY 7 MILLION. HE NEEDS NEW CUSTOMERS. TRUMP IS INCAPABLE OF THAT SO I THINK HE WILL JUST GO OUT AND BE ANGRY. >> YEAH. IT CERTAINLY IS GOING TO BE AN
