Mr Hawker told Sky News Australia that the politics in America has “changed fundamentally”.
“She’s very much on the attack and on the rise.”
Political strategist Simon Rosenberg talks with Alex Wagner about how Vice President Kamala Harris has closed the polling gap with Donald Trump in swing states and is carrying momentum with politically favorable conditions and scheduled events that are likely to further boost her numbers.

The filibuster started as an accident. Today it lets the losers rule Congress.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
The US Senate is supposed to pass laws. But today, it’s broken. And it’s broken because of something called the filibuster, which has been part of Senate tradition for over 200 years. But the filibuster came into being by accident. And today, some politicians are suggesting we should get rid of it entirely.

How Republicans won Michigan, how they lost it, and what it all tells us.
Subscribe and turn on notifications 🔔 so you don't miss any videos: http://goo.gl/0bsAjO
The “blue wall” once referred to a group of Northeast, Midwest, and West Coast states that, conventional wisdom said, “always vote for Democrats.” Unfortunately for Democrats, that was wrong, and in 2016 Donald Trump shockingly won three “blue wall” states — including, narrowly, the state of Michigan.
It maybe shouldn’t have been such a shock, though. All three of the “blue” states Trump won actually had a history of electing Republicans at the state level. Michigan in particular had been fully taken over since 2010 by Republicans, who then spent years gutting unions, restricting abortion, loosening environmental protections, and generally just turning a Republican policy wish list into law. So Trump winning Michigan was, in a way, just the culmination of a years-long drift to the right there.
But by 2022, something had changed dramatically. In a midterm election where Republicans were favored, Democrats won every branch of elected government in Michigan — governor, state House, and state Senate. The state Senate in particular had not been under Democratic control since 1984. And Democrats got busy using their new power immediately: repealing much of the right-wing legislation of the previous years, passing strong LGBTQ protections, quadrupling a tax credit for the poor, and allocating a billion dollars for the auto industry to transition to electric cars. Suddenly Michigan was cranking out more progressive legislation than almost any other state in the US.
So to recap: Michigan was once a blue state, except it wasn’t actually, and in fact over time it got pretty red, but then it became an actual blue state. (Again?) Or something like that. Obviously, the truth is that Michigan is a swing state. But the story of each of those swings is actually key to understanding how US politics work in the 2010s and 2020s. And it can tell us a lot about our next election, too.

Why some Americans’ votes count more than others.
Watch more of our election coverage: http://vox.com/ElectionVideos
In the 2000 US presidential election, the Democratic candidate got half a million more votes than the Republican. The Democrat lost. Sixteen years later the same thing happened again. In the US, if you run for president, it does not actually matter how many people in the country vote for you. What matters instead is an arcane system for selecting America’s head of state called the Electoral College.
The Electoral College is the reason the US has something called “swing states,” and it’s the reason those places get to decide the future of the country. It’s the reason presidential candidates almost never campaign in the country’s biggest cities. And more recently, it’s also the reason that Republican candidates have been able to eke out victories in the presidential election without actually getting the most votes.
The Electoral College makes some Americans’ votes more powerful than others. In fact, that’s part of the reason we have it to begin with; in the country’s early years, the Electoral College helped give the votes of Southern Whites more weight than the votes of Northerners. The idea at its core, that certain votes simply matter more than others, is baked into the American tradition. In the 2020 election, it may decide the winner.
Further reading:
The historian Alexander Keyssar’s book “Why Do We Still Have the Electoral College?” takes you through the history and function of the Electoral College: https://www.hup.harvard.edu/ca....talog.php?isbn=97806
For the bite-sized version of that history, Keyssar also wrote this piece in the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/0....8/03/opinion/elector
The Times also had a great interactive feature on where the 2020 candidates actually spent money: https://www.nytimes.com/intera....ctive/2020/10/17/us/

Donald Trump sat down with the billionaire Elon Musk for a rambling and vitriolic interview that revisited many of the former president’s most divisive talking points.
Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/guardianwiressub
The interview on X, which Musk owns, got off to an inauspicious start, with technical issues initially preventing many users from listening. Musk blamed the delay on a 'massive' cyber-attack, but the cause of the glitch was not clear. Trump attacked migrants while consistently mocking his opponent, Kamala Harris, and lied throughout the two-hour interview. A sympathetic Musk concluded the interview by telling Trump he was 'on the right path'
