AND I SAY THAT IS THE PLAN, BECAUSE AS ALWAYS WITH DONALD TRUMP, I THINK THERE IS THE PLAN, AND WHAT HE DECIDES TO DO ON THE FLY, ON THE DEBATE STAGE HERE TONIGHT. SOMETHING NONE OF HIS ADVISERS CAN TELL US FOR SURE. >> HAAKE, THANKS VERY MUCH. >> WE ARE JOINED BY COCHAIR OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT'S CAMPAIGN, AND OF COURSE SHE IS HIS DAUGHTER-IN-LAW. GOOD EVENING, LARA TRUMP. GOOD TO SEE YOU. >> WHO KNOWS WHAT TIME IT IS ANYMORE. >> JUST LIKE A CASINO, THERE ARE NO CLOCKS. LET'S PICK UP WHERE GARRETT LEFT OFF. A LOT OF ADVISERS HAVE SAID TO YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW, BEHAVE YOURSELF, JUST PLAY IT STRAIGHT, DON'T BE THE TRUTH SOCIAL DONALD TRUMP, BE THE GUY THAT LOOKS RESIDENTIAL. IS THAT THE ADVICE YOU'VE GIVEN HIM? WILL HE TAKE IT? >> WELL, HE TOOK IT ON JUNE 27th IN THE DEBATE AGAINST JOE BIDEN, AND I THINK IF ANYBODY HAD ANY QUESTION, HOW CAN DONALD TRUMP PERFORM IN A DEBATE? THAT WAS A KNOCKOUT PUNCH. DONALD TRUMP HAS BEATEN JOE BIDEN WHO IS NO LONGER THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE. WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO, SAVANNAH, WHENEVER HE GOES INTO THIS DEBATE THIS EVENING THIS IS ABOUT TALKING ABOUT HOW THE AMERICAN PEOPLE'S LIVES WERE WHILE HE WAS IN OFFICE AND HOW THEIR LIVES ARE RIGHT NOW, AND HE HAS TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE ARE REMINDED KAMALA HARRIS HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY FOR NEARLY 4 YEARS TO DO A HOST OF THINGS, MANY OF THEM IN THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS. THE QUESTION IS WHY DO YOU HAVE TO WAIT? WHY AREN'T YOU DOING THESE THINGS NOW? AND HE HAS TO EXPOSE KAMALA HARRIS FOR WHO SHE IS. AMERICA BY AND LARGE DOES NOT KNOW HER. SHE'S DONE ONE INTERVIEW THUS FAR. I THINK HE'S GOING TO BE CALM, COOL, AND COLLECTED. I THINK ONE THING, EVERYONE WILL BE IMPRESSED TONIGHT. >> BOTH SIDES WILL CLAIM VICTORY, BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY INTERNALLY, WHAT IS A HOME RUN FOR DONALD TRUMP TONIGHT? >> I THINK IT IS HIM HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE DIRECTLY WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND TRULY CALL OUT KAMALA HARRIS FOR SOME OF HER RADICAL PAST, SHE HAS SEEMED TO CHANGE HER TUNE VERY RECENTLY ON A LOT OF THINGS, AND IT DOES BEG THE QUESTION, WHO IS KAMALA HARRIS, AND WHAT IS HER PLAN FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY? I THINK IF HE LAYS OUT WHAT HE DID WHILE HE WAS PRESENT FOR FOUR YEARS AND WHAT HE PLANS TO DO TO FIX THE DAMAGE FRANKLY KAMALA HARRIS AND JOE BIDEN HAVE CAUSED IN THIS COUNTRY, I THINK THAT IS A GREAT SUCCESS, AND I THINK THAT WE WILL SEE THAT HAPPEN TONIGHT. >> NIKKI HALEY WHO WAS A RIVAL OF YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW'S IN THE PRIMARY, SAID THAT PART OF THE REASON THAT DONALD TRUMP IS TRAILING AMONG WOMEN VOTERS IN PARTICULAR, VOTERS HE VERY MUCH NEED TO PREVAIL IN THIS ELECTION IS BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT HE AND HIS RUNNING MATE, JD VANCE, SPEAK TO WOMEN. SHE SAID, WHEN YOU CALL EVEN A DEMOCRAT WOMAN DUMB REPUBLICAN WOMEN GET THEIR BACKS UP TOO. STICK TO THE POLICIES, LEAVE ALL THE OTHER STUFF. IT'S INTERESTING, BECAUSE HE KNOWS HOW TO BE CALM, COOL, AND COLLECTED ON THE DEBATE STAGE, BUT AT THIS POINT FOR BETTER OR WORSE, VOTERS KNOW HIM, THEY KNOW WHAT HE SAYS ON TRUTH SOCIAL, HE KNOWS THE NAMES AND INNUENDO I COULD NOT EVEN REPEAT HERE ON-AIR THAT HE MAKES ABOUT HIS OPPONENT HERE. SO, HOW DOES THAT LAY INTO YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT THIS ELECTION? >> WELL, LISTEN, I THINK DONALD TRUMP IS INCREDIBLY TRANSPARENT, AND I BELIEVE THAT IS SOMETHING THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR A LEADER IN THIS COUNTRY. LOOK, WE HAD 3 1/2 YEARS, SAVANNAH, OF PEOPLE SAYING WHAT'S GOING ON WITH JOE BIDEN? AND KAMALA HARRIS WAS ONE OF THE MANY PEOPLE WHO LIED ABOUT HIS . WE NEED TRANSPARENCY IN OUR LEADERS, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT DONALD TRUMP. HE HIMSELF SAID YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIKE ME, BUT WHEN YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT SOMEONE WHO WILL HAVE THE POLICIES THAT'S GOING TO MAKE YOUR LIFE LESS EXPENSIVE, THAT'S GOING TO SECURE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER, THAT'S GOING TO KEEP US SAFE, THAT IS GOING TO GET US OUT OF WARS, NOT INTO WARS, THOSE ARE THE POLICIES PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR ABOUT, AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT POLICY-- THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON. >> JUST TO BE CLEAR THAT POLICY DEBATE ABSOLUTELY IS FAIR GAME. I'M TALKING ABOUT THE STUFF HE PUTS ON TRUTH SOCIAL, LIKE A SEXUAL INNUENDO ABOUT HOW SHE MAINTAINED HER POSITION IN POLITICS, THE KIND OF THING. >> WELL, DONALD TRUMP IS VERY GOOD LOOKING, HE WILL BE THE FIRST TO TELL YOU THAT. BUT, I REALLY ULTIMATELY THINK THAT, WHENEVER PEOPLE ARE MORE FOCUSED ON THAT THAN THEY ARE THEIR EVERYDAY LIFE I THINK THAT IS A HARD THING TO TRY AND SELL TO PEOPLE WHENEVER THEY GO TO THE GROCERY STORE, AND THEY CAN BUY AS MUCH FOR THEIR FAMILIES. WHENEVER THEY FILL THEIR GAS TANK, AND I CAN'T FILL IT UP AS MUCH ULTIMATELY, I THINK THAT ELECTIONS COME DOWN TO KITCHEN TABLE ISSUES, AND AGAIN, YOU DON'T TO LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM, YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO HANG OUT WITH DONALD TRUMP, BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT YOUR LIFE IN THE FUTURE FOR THIS COUNTRY YOU KNOW BETWEEN THESE TWO INDIVIDUALS YOU CANNOT SURVIVE FOUR MORE YEARS OF WHAT THIS COUNTRY HAS JUST BEEN THERE,
