Harris Faulkner: Democrats were going back to the 'feel goods' of the Obama era

ALL RIGHT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT PLEASURE, JOINING US NOW, HARRIS FAULKNER, CO-HOST OF "OUTNUMBERED" AND HOST OF THE FAULKNER FOCUS ON FOX NEWS. HARRIS, IT IS WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU, EVEN IF I HAVE TO GO TO CHICAGO TO FIND YOU, IT IS WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU. [LAUGHTER]. I JUST -- >> WE'VE GOT STEVIE WONDER IN THE BACKGROUND. LARRY: LISTEN I HAD ROCK BANDS WHEN I WAS BROADCASTING AT THE RNC. IT WAS PRETTY BRUTAL. >> I KNOW. YOU'RE A ROCK STAR. LARRY: NO, I'M NOT, YOU'RE THE ROCK STAR BUT I DISCUSS WANT TO ASK YOU A COUPLE THINGS. I KNOW YOU HAD AN INTERVIEW WE WANT TO PLAY BUT LOOK, I THOUGHT THE OBAMAS WERE TERRIBLE. YOU KNOW, THEY WENT LOW AND WENT LOWER, WERE OBSESSED WITH DONALD TRUMP AND I THOUGHT THERE WAS MICHELLE OBAMA PLAYING THE RACE CARD. WE MADE THE CLIP AND YOU PROBABLY HEARD IT, PLAYING THE RACE CARD. SHE JUST CAN'T HELP HERSELF. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT ALL OF THAT? >> WELL IF YOU THINK SHE PLAYED THE OBAMA CARD AND THAT IS, YOU KNOW, GET IN THERE AND DO WHAT YOU GOT TO DO AND OWN IT, WHICH IS WHY BIDEN WASN'T THERE, AND IT'S WHY KAMALA HARRIS WASN'T THERE. OUR REPORTING HAS SHOWED THERE IS A LOT OF DISCONTENT BEHIND THE SCENES BETWEEN THE BIDENS AND THE OBAMAS AND, I MEAN, WHY NOT BE THIS IF YOU'RE KAMALA HARRIS? THIS IS TECHNICALLY HER CONVENTION T WAS CORONATION THAT PUT HER INTO THE TOP OF THE TICKET OVER HER BOSS JOE BIDEN. TO HEAR BOTH MICHELLE OBAMA AND BARACK OBAMA KIND OF OWN THIS MOMENT AS IF IT WERE THEIR OWN, WHEN MICHELLE OBAMA GOES AFTER, FACE IT, SHE WENT AFTER JOE BIDEN. ALL THESE YEARS, THEY WEREN'T HOPEFUL AND SHE IS LIKE, NOW WE CAN AWAKEN, I'M PARAPHRASING, I'M SOFTENING IT ACTUALLY, NOW WE CAN AWAKEN TO THE IDEA OF HOPE. I'M THINKING THE LAST FOUR YEARS WERE YOUR GUYS. THEY WERE JOE BIDEN. I THOUGHT ABOUT IT, SHE NEVER MENTIONED HIS NAME AND AND AND FORMER FIRST LADY. IT WAS ABOUT THEM. KAMALA HARRIS NOT TO BE HERE, CAN BE CERTAIN IT WAS NOT ABOUT HER EITHER. ALL THE RACE CARD PLAY SOMETHING NOT WORKING FOR THEM IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY. YOU AND I, LARRY, TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE ON "OUTNUMBERED." THE OPERATIVE COLOR IS NOT BROWN, IT IS NOT BLACK, PEOPLE ARE HURTING THE FINANCIALLY. WHEN WE GOT THE JOBS NUMBER, I GET MY FINANCIAL NEWS FROM YOU, THE JOBS NUMBER WAS REVISED BY A MILLION, THAT FEELS WE'RE DUPED FOR THE PURPOSE OF POLITICS. IF THAT SUBMIT THE REASON, YOU NEED TO EXPLAIN IT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BECAUSE THAT IS HUGE. WE CAN'T GET THE STUBBORN INTEREST RATES DOWN, YOU TALKED ABOUT IT ON YOUR SHOW, HOW THAT HURTS THE ECONOMY LONG TERM. THEY DIDN'T TOUCH ABOUT THE REAL STUFF HURTING AMERICA. THEY WERE GOING TO THE FEEL GOOD OF THE OBAMA ERA. LARRY: HOW COME ON, HOW COME, HARRIS, THEY DIDN'T TALK ABOUT KAMALA'S BIG ECONOMIC PLAN WHICH WAS THURSDAY, TWO TRILLION DOLLARS OF SPENDING PLUS THESE CRAZY PRICE CONTROLS? THIS WAS HER BIG ECONOMIC PLAN, RIGHT AND THE ECONOMY IS THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE, RIGHT? THE OBAMAS NEVER MENTIONED IT. IN FACT, NOBODY HAS MENTIONED IT BEST I CAN TELL. WHAT'S UP WITH THAT? >> NO. WELL, FIRST OF ALL IT IS NOT WRITTEN POLICY. WE KNOW WHEN THEY PUT OUT THE PLATFORM THIS WEEK IT HAD 19 MENTIONS OF BIDEN'S SECOND TERM. WHICH MEANS BIDEN-HARRIS WAS NOT PART OF THE PLATFORM FOR THE DNCT BASS HUNDRED 31 DAYS, LIKE THEY DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS COMING. I HAD PLENTY OF RESOURCES ON THE LEFT PROBABLY TOLD ME THEY HAD A HEAD'S UP AFTER THE JUNE 27th DEBATE DEBACLE. ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY THEY WERE PLANNING KAMALA ALL ALONG? I DON'T WANT TO TELL YOU THAT, HARRIS FAULKNER. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN THEY HAD A HEALTHY HEAD'S UP? ANYWAY WHAT I'M SAYING ABOUT ALL OF THIS IS, THERE IS NO POLICY COMING OUT OF HER. NOTHING IS WRITTEN. LIKE THE TIPS SHE STOLE FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP. NOW SHE WILL DO DON'T TAX THE TIPS. I BET YOU COULDN'T GET HER TO EXPLAIN MORE THAN A SENTENCE ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT IS NOT HER IDEA. THE BIG ISSUE HERE IN CHICAGO IS CRIME. LARRY IT WAS BAD BEFORE THE PROTESTERS CAME HERE, STARTED TEARING THINGS UP WITH SLEDGEHAMMERS, SHOUTING HOW THEY WANT TO KILL JEWISH-AMERICANS. KILLER KAMALA. THEIR OWN CANDIDATE. THEY DON'T PROTECT HER. STOP TALKING LIKE THAT. ALREADY ONE GUY WAS SHOT THIS CYCLE. THEY DON'T WANT TO TELL HER. THE CITIZENS WHEN I GO OUT, I HAD ONE WHO WAS REALLY, REALLY STRONG OWN THE ISSUE OF CRIME IN STUDIO TODAY. I WOULD LOVE FOR YOUR AUDIENCE TO SEE IT. SHE HAS ALWAYS VOTED FOR THE DEMOCRATS. NOW IT IS DIFFERENT. >> AND I LISTENED TO THE SPEECHES YESTERDAY AND I LISTENED TO MICHELLE OBAMA TALK ABOUT HER MOTHER AND HOW SHE HELPED WITH HER NEIGHBORS BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? WE'RE ALL DOING THAT IN THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE LIVE IN AND NO CHANGE IS REALLY HAPPENING. WHY I DECIDED TO LEAVE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. I'M SO TIRED OF BLACK PEOPLE BEING TAKEN FOR GRANTED. I WANT PEOPLE TO REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT THIS PARTY IS PUSHING KAMALA HARRIS ON THE PEOPLE. LARRY: BOY, THAT'S A, THAT'S A PRETTY HEAVY RIFF, WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF IT? >> YEAH. I THINK IT'S THE TRUTH FROM PEOPLE I'M TALKING WITH THAT NO ONE WANTS TO SAY OUT LOUD. YOU KNOW THAT BARACK OBAMA KNOWS THIS. THIS IS HIS HOME CITY AND DURING HIS YEARS IN THE PRESIDENCY AND ALL THE BLUE DEMOCRATS, ALL THAT BREW ON THE LEFT LEADERSHIP THAT THIS CITY HAS HAD IT NEVER CHANGED. NOW IT IS WORSE BECAUSE BIDEN AND HARRIS HAVE DELIVERED A COLLAPSABLE, VERY, YOU KNOW, VERY EXPENSIVE ECONOMY, TO PEOPLE AND SO THEY WERE ALREADY DEALING WITH CRIME. NOW THEY CAN'T EVEN AFFORD TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE. WHEN THEY DO THEY HAVE TO HAVE THEIR HEAD ON A SWIVEL. ON THE FIRST DAY OF CONVENTION WHEN I GOT HERE, THEY HAD EIGHT SHOOTINGS, FOUR MURDERS. MY GOODNESS, LARRY, IT IS HOTTER THAN ANY PART OF NEW YORK. THE MAIN RESOURCES ARE AROUND THE DNC CONCEPTION CENTER. MY QUESTION, WHAT IS IT LIKE IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT NEED MORE COPS NOW? NO WONDER THESE GUYS DON'T FEEL SAFE. I DON'T THINK THEY SEE THE PROTESTERS. THE MOTORCADES SEE THEM. THEY'RE CALLING FOR THE ISSUE CALLING FOR THE DEATH OF AMERICAN CITIZENS FOR BEING JEWISH, OUR FAITH. YOU KNOW IF THEY COULD, THE TENT WOULD BE WIDER WHO THEY WOULD WANT TO TAKE OUT WHEN IT COMES TO FAITH. THAT IS ANOTHER HALF HOUR OF CONVERSATION. I'M SO EXCITED TO BE ON YOUR SHOW, BY THE WAY. LARRY: HARRIS, YOU'RE TERRIFIC. YOU'RE TERRIFIC. I'M UP AGAINST THE BEST.
