| 0:00.0 | Does Kamala Harris need to turn and face Trump and talk to the country and talk about the fear directly and the stakes in a way that's more vivid than she's done it so far? |
| 0:19.1 | My biased view is that I would like to see her do that, but I always try to consider |
| 0:26.6 | someone who doesn't work in this field, but is, you know, working in Michigan and dealing |
| 0:34.6 | with a student loan and making sure they pick up their kids, but also being on time to work. |
| 0:41.3 | And is, is the economic message really the single and sole message here that is going to be the most motivating or will, you know, because where, where I hesitate, Steve, is that if you watch your average Harris |
| 0:56.1 | rally right now and your average Trump rally, there is a positive vision coming from Harris |
| 1:02.1 | and a dark apocalyptic vision coming from Trump. Now, you can say it's kind of standard |

| 2:03.9 | Here's what you really should be afraid of message other than when it comes to women's bodily autonomy and reproductive rights |
| 2:10.6 | Which does seem to have been really effective at telling people what the stakes are |
| 2:15.3 | Do you have a sense with the women in your lives, |
