Aurora, Colorado mentioned in first presidential debate between Harris and Trump

BRONCOS GAME. >> ALL RIGHT DAVE. THANK YOU. >>> THE FIRST AND PERHAPS ONLY PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BETWEEN KAMALA HARRIS AND DONALD TRUMP IS IN THE BOOKS. IMMIGRATION WAS A THEME THROUGHOUT WITH TRUMP MENTIONING THE ISSUES IN AURORA, VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS BROUGHT UP A BORDER SECURITY BILL THAT TRUMP TOLD REPUBLICANS TO KILL. >> THAT WOULD HAVE PUT 1500 MORE BORDER AGENTS ON THE BORDER TO HELP THE FOLKS WORKING THERE OVER TIME TRYING TO DO THEIR JOB. IT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED US TO STEM THE FLOW OF FENTANYL COMES INTO THE UNITED STATES. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT BILL? DONALD TRUMP GOT ON THE PHONE, CALLED UP THE FOLKS IN CONGRESS AND SAID KILL THE BILL. YOU KNOW WHY?. >> HE WAS ASKED WHY HE KILLED THE BILL, BUT DIDN'T ANSWER. INSTEAD, HE TALKED ABOUT CRIME. >> CRIME HERE IS UP AND THROUGH THE ROOF. DESPITE THEIR FRAUDULENT STATEMENTS THEY MADE. CRIME IS THROUGH THE ROOF AND WE HAVE A NEW FORM OF CRIME. IT IS CALLED MIGRANT CRIME AND IT IS HAPPENING AT LEVELS NOBODY THOUGHT POSSIBLE. >> PRESIDENT TRUMP, AS YOU KNOW THE FBI SAYSOVER ALL, VIOLENT CRIME IS COMING DOWN IN THIS COUNTRY. >> FBI WERE DEFRAUDING STATEMENTS. THEY DIDN'T INCLUDE THE WORST CITIES. THE CITIES WITH THE WORST CRIME. IT WAS A FRAUD. >> ALL RIGHT, OUR POLITICAL ANALYSTS ARE HERE WITH US TONIGHT. THANK YOU BOTH FOR BEING WITH US. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. SO LET'S GET RIGHT TO IT SHALL WE? >> VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS CARRIED ON FROM THE CONVENTION. I THOUGHT SHE LOOKED PRESIDENTIAL SO I THINK THAT WAS KEY FOR HER. SHE WAS ABLE TO PERFORM ON A STAGE WITH THE FORMER PRESIDENT. AND BE SUCCESSFUL. >> I THINK THAT TRUMP WAS MUCH MORE DISCIPLINED THAN I WAS ANTICIPATING. I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW HOW HE CAN BECOME UNDISCIPLINED AND I THINK HE ALSO STUCK TO THE THEMES OF IMMIGRATION, FRACKING, AND THE ECONOMY. AND INFLATION. AND HE KEPT HAMMERING THOSE AND THAT WAS GOOD. >> NO SURPRISE THERE. >> DID THE FORMER PRESIDENT DO ENOUGH TO HOLD VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS ACCOUNTABLE IN YOUR MIND? >> I THINK HE COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB FRANKLY. HE KEPT GOING AS TRUMP LIKES TO DO, GOING OFF ON HIS LITTLE CUL-DE-SACS AND I THINK HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT HAMMERING THE FACT THAT SHE HAS BEEN VICE PRESIDENT FOR THREE-AND-A-HALF YEARS. AND ALL THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN LANGUISHING OUT THERE AND SHE DIDN'T GET THEM ACCOMPLISHED. WHY DO WE THINK SHE WILL DO BETTER NOW? HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT GOING BACK TO THOSE THINGS. >> WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WATCH THE DEBATE TOGETHER. AND WITH HIS CLOSING STATEMENT IT WAS LIKE WHERE WAS THAT ALL NIGHT LONG? >> RIGHT. >> SO MIKE, LET ME ASK YOU, DO YOU THINK VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS DID ENOUGH TO SEPARATE HERSELF FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION RIGHT NOW? WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> I THOUGHT SHE DID. I LIKED THE LINE I'M NOT JOE BIDEN. OBVIOUSLY I'M NOT DONALD TRUMP. I THINK THAT WAS A GREAT LINE. IT WAS A VERY DEFINING LINE. AND I THINK SHE CHARTED HER COURSE WITH WHERE SHE WOULD STAND ON HOUSING. CERTAINLY, TRUMP PROBABLY HELPED. HE COULD HAVE GONE A LOT HARDER IN ATTACHING HER TO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. AND DICK IS RIGHT. IT CAME DOWN TO THE END. THE FORMER PRESIDENCY MORE INTENT ON DEGRADING THE CURRENT PRESIDENT. AND THAT TOOK HIM OFF TRACK. >> YOU FEEL LIKE SHE MADE ANY POINTS ON THE ECONOMY AND WHAT SHE PLANS TO DO IF SHE IS ELECTED PRESIDENT? >> KAREN I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT SHE LOOKED PRESIDENTIAL. THE ECONOMY IS A TOUGH ISSUE FOR HER, AND THE FORMER PRESIDENT COULD PROBABLY DO MORE TO HARP ON IT. HE DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF SPECIFICS. BUT I THINK THE FACT THAT SHE LOOKED PRESIDENTIAL AND PEOPLE COULD SAY I CAN SEE HER IN THAT OFFICE WAS KEY. >> DICK, DO YOU THINK TONIGHT CHANGED ANY MINDS IN COLORADO? WE KNOW THERE ARE CERTAINLY PEOPLE WHO HAVE ALREADY DECIDED THEY WILL VOTE FOR THE VICE PRESIDENT AND PEOPLE WHO WILL CERTAINLY VOTE FOR THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND THEN THE FOLKS IN THE MIDDLE. DID ANYBODY MOVE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER? >> NO. I THINK THIS RACE IS WHERE IT IS NOW. THIS WILL JUST BE A SLUG FEST. BETWEEN NOW AND NOVEMBER 5th. THEY WILL BE FIGHTING OVER A TINY SLIVER OF VOTERS IN SEVEN STATES. AND MIKE AND I WERE TALKING EARLIER. I THINK HER FACIAL EXPRESSIONS DETRACTED FROM HER PERFORMANCE. FRANKLY, SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE WHAT TRUMP DID. STARE STRAIGHT INTO THE CAMERA AND NOT LOOK AT HER AND SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT TOO. I THINK SHE SPENT TOO MUCH TIME LOOKING AT TRUMP, SOMETIMES SMIRKING AND I DON'T THINK THAT SERVED HER WELL. >> WE HAVE LESS THAN TWO MONTHS UNTIL THE ELECTION. DO WE SEE ANOTHER DEBATE? >> I THINK TRUMP'S ADVISERS ARE CONTENT WITH HIM DOING HIS RALLIES. THAT CAME UP. IT WAS A DISTRACTION FROM IMMIGRATION. I FEEL STRONGLY THAT THE VICE PRESIDENT WILL WIN THE POPULAR NOTE. BUT WE KNOW AS DICK SAID IT COMES DOWN TO THE SWING STATES. THAT'S THE BIGGEST PRIZE,. >> YOU THINK IT IS ONE AND DONE? >> YES. I DO. I THINK THAT THESE TWO ENJOYED BEATING UP ON EACH OTHER. BUT I THINK THEY WILL BOTH GO TO THEIR CORNERS AND DO THEIR CAMPAIGNS NOW. >> ANY SURPRISES TONIGHT? >> WELL, I WAS ANXIOUS ABOUT HOW THE VICE PRESIDENT WOULD PERFORM. THE INTERVIEW SHE HAD AND DIDN'T EARN HER A LOT OF POINTS. I THINK TONIGHT MIGHT GIVE HER A VERY SLIGHT BOOST. IN THE GENERAL POLLS BUT IT WILL BE NECK IN NECK IN THESE SWING STATES ALL THE WAY THROUGH. AND I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH HER PERFORMANCE. LITTLE SURPRISE THAT IT TURNED OUT SO WELL. >> DICK? >> NO. THERE WAS NO GOLDEN MOMENT OR MOMENT THAT TRANSFORMED THE RACE. I THINK THEY BOTH DID WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO. TRUMP COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB SAYING YOU HAVE BEEN THERE THREE-AND-A-HALF YEARS AND YOU DIDN'T DO IT. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU CAN DO IT NOW. AND THAT'S THE ONE. >> GENTLEMEN, WE APPRECIATE YOUR INSIGHT. WE KNOW WE WILL HEAR A
