Discussed Today In Detail:
Trump will create 2020 election chaos former RNC chairman says
Donald Trump has said regarding whether he will accept the election results in
November, ‘I will have to see.’ The 2020 election outcome possibly becoming
chaotic is discussed by former RNC Chairman Michael Steele, who tells host
Jonathan Capehart, ‘Democrats wake up. You cannot approach this election from a
conventional perspective.’

Trump 2020 result disputes may be supported by courts expert says
Donald Trump has floated delaying the election using unproven concerns over
mail-in voting. The courts, which have seen dozens of recent GOP appointments,
may facilitate the president’s unprecedented disruption of the 2020 election
should it occur, Justice Correspondent for The Nation Elie Mystal alleges to
host Jonathan Capehart.

Trump may not leave with loss, Dems must prepare experts say
Donald Trump may not leave office if he loses, and if he does, the current
president might not attend the inauguration of Joe Biden, breaking historic
precedent, some believe. Regarding the 2020 presidential election, Democrats and
beyond must prepare for the worst, politics experts tell host Jonathan Capehart.

Biden VP women of color contenders highly qualified Jarrett says
Joe Biden’s vice presidential pick could be one of many women of color
contenders, who are all highly qualified, former Senior Advisor to Barack Obama
Valerie Jarrett tells AM JOY. Jarrett adds to host Jonathan Capehart regarding
criticism of these women as ‘too ambitious’: ‘What vice president didn't want to
be president? All of the men did. Why do we have a different standard for the
women?’
________________________________________________________________________________
Minneapolis police link ‘umbrella man’ with white supremacy org.
Minneapolis police have linked the ‘umbrella man’ who was recorded damaging a
business during the George Floyd protests to a white supremacist group. In
conversation with host Jonathan Capehart, Minnesota Attorney General Keith
Ellison calls on the Justice Department and other federal agencies to do more
investigation of white nationalist organizations, which have ‘been able to
flourish’ in his estimation, due to what Ellison sees as a lack of intervention.

Biden's potentially black woman VP pick creating negative chatter
Joe Biden’s vice president pick possibly being a black woman is creating
negative chatter, critics of these naysayers lament. Jonathan Capehart and panel
discuss the need for some among the Democratic donors, the press, and others to
be open to Biden selecting a highly qualified woman of color vice president.

COVID-19 pandemic requires nationwide mask mandate doctor says
The COVID-19 pandemic requires a nationwide mask mandate Dr. Howard K. Koh tells
host Jonathan Capehart. Koh adds of the positive spin some have put on cases
plateauing in certain areas, ‘Saying the cases have plateaued is like saying the
runaway car has plateaued at only 100 miles an hour.’

Trump rescinding fair housing rule seen as racist dog whistle
Donald Trump rescinding the fair housing rule enacted during the Obama
administration is seen as racist dog whistle by many. New York Times journalist
Nikole Hannah-Jones tells AM JOY that the president cannot rescind the fair
housing mandate, because it is part of a law legislated by Congress.
Hannah-Jones also calls Trump’s announcement about the rule, ‘largely
performative.’

Trump in Putin call did not talk Russia bounties on US soldiers
Donald Trump in his call with Vladimir Putin confirmed that he did not address
the intelligence asserting that Russia has placed bounties on U.S. soldiers in
Afghanistan. Axios reporter Jonathan Swan joins Jonathan Capehart to discuss his
interview with the president on this controversy.

Florida’s COVID-19 surge caused by ‘overconfidence’ Curbelo says
Florida’s COVID-19 surge was caused by ‘overconfidence’ MSNBC analyst and former
congressman Carlos Curbelo tells Jonathan Capehart when pressed on whether
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is ‘doing enough’ to fight the pandemic.
