5 takeaways from Kamala Harris' first solo interview as the Democratic nominee

MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle spoke with Vice President Kamala Harris following the Democratic presidential nominee’s speech at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, where she laid out an economic vision for her administration if elected.

If there was an overarching theme to the interview, it was the disconnect between the two parties’ records on the economy, the public’s perception of those records and the irony that some middle-class people — including some union members — believe former President Donald Trump has a greater understanding of their struggles than the vice president.

This is a preview of Jarvis DeBerry's latest article. Read the full column here.

We're getting closer and closer to the election. And a lot of weird stuff has been happening. Our guest this week points out that Trump has been going “all in” for the “weird vote,” by choosing JD Vance as his running mate and elevating figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Dave Weigel covers politics and writes the “Americana” newsletter for Semafor. He’s written about how the Trump-Vance coalition has aimed to cobble together contrarians, dissidents, conspiracy theorists and people who are distrustful of the so-called establishment into a majority coalition. Weigel joins WITHpod to discuss paranoid-esque low trust thinking at the core of the Republican Party base, Trump elevating figures from niche anti-establishment circles and what this all means in such a contentious election.
