Kamala Harris delivers a rousing closing speech, promising to be a president for all Americans and sharply contrasting her plans with Donald Trump's. Trump works to clean up that terrible Puerto Rico joke, getting assists from Sean Hannity and, unfortunately, President Biden, and Trump and surrogates like Elon Musk and Mike Johnson remind voters about their plans to take away health care and slash government budgets—and maybe crash the economy while they're at it. Jon Lovett and the Bulwark's Tim Miller sift through all of it, including the three remaining groups of undecided voters and the unending debate over invoking "fascism." Then, Lovett and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez talk about how to persuade disaffected progressives and what she's been seeing on the ground in Pennsylvania.
Welcome to Pod Save America.
I'm John Lovett.
I'm Tim Miller.
Is that what we're doing?
You know who you are, Tim.
That's how we're doing it.
Yeah.
Oh, that's how we're doing it.
Okay.
All right, here we go.
Let's start it over here.
We.
Cleared your throat like.
Like.
Like an ancient.
On today's show, Kamala Harris makes her final argument to undecided voters.
In a big speech on the Ellipse, Donald Trump tries to clean up the mess from that terrible joke about Puerto Rico.
And President Biden makes Trump's job a little bit easier with quite a gaffe.
And here in the home stretch, Trump and his surrogates are helpfully reminding voters of the stakes, being quite open about their plans to dismantle Obamac, put RFK Jr in charge of vaccines and prescription drugs, and perhaps even crash the economy if they win.
Then I talked to Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez about how to persuade disaffected progressives, someone Tim is not.
