Vice President Harris and former president Donald Trump are focused on the same thing: the unprecedented ways he has promised to use the presidency.

Trump's closing message to his supporters is a promise to deport tens of millions of people and prosecute political foes. He is also working to turn out as much of his base as possible, even unlikely voters.

Meanwhile, Harris is closing her last weeks on the campaign with a message centered on reproductive rights and a pitch to persuade disaffected Republican-leaning voters.

This episode: national political correspondent Sarah McCammon, senior White House correspondent Tamara Keith, campaign correspondent Danielle Kurtzleben, and senior national political correspondent Mara LIasson.
