trump university. and the plot thickens. now the irs is reporting a $2,500 penalty this year, after it was revealed trump's foundation had violated tax laws by giving a political contribution to a campaign group connected to florida's attorney general. joining me now, the reporter behind that story, david farenthold of the washington post. walk us through this. donald trump winds up -- or his foundation winds up giving this donation to pam bondi's political action committee. can you sort that out for us? >> it's very confusing. pam bondi solicits a donation from donald trump when she's considering whether or not to investigate trump university. trump pays that donation, $25,000 out of the donald j. trump foundation, which is an odd entity. it's a charity, contains almost no money from donald j. trump himself. you might think that it does, but it doesn't. trump pays that money out of the foundation, which it's not allowed to do. foundations can't make political gifts. then when he reports that year's ac

trump, 39%. north carolina, clinton, 42%, trump, 38%. ohio, 41 for trump, 37 for clinton. in florida, 43-43, a tie. those are pretty close numbers. >> they are conducive, similar to a national poll figtightenin that we're seeing. you look inside them, the reason why clinton is ahead in north carolina and pennsylvania, behind in ohio has less to do with the groups behaving differently than the composition of the groups in the different states. there's a lot of consistency across the states. trump is big among non-college whites and she's up big among non-whites. what's different is how many of those voters are there in each of the states. that's similar to what we saw in that washington post of all 50. there's a lot of consistency from state to state. donald trump is strongest in the places with a lot of blue collar whites and hillary clinton is strongest where there's democratic. >> you take a look at gary johnson, candidate in all four of these states. 9%. 14% in ohio. 8% in florida. if it's a close race between the two candidates, he could do well. he didn't help himself

so donald trump's contributors today paid donald trump to rent the room for donald trump to stand up in front of microphones and say this. >> hillary clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. i finished it. i finished it. you know what i mean. president barack obama was born in the united states, period. now we all want to get back to making america strong and great again. thank you. thank you very much. thank you. >> had to tell a couple of lies while retracting one lie. donald trump of course refused to take any questions after retracting his five years of non-stop lying about president obama's birth. david fahrenthold of the washington post was there and yelled a question about trump's charitable contributions. david fahrenthold is pursuing the $5 million that donald trump once promised to donate if president obama could prove he was born in hawaii. now that donald trump says he accepts that proof, he owes $5 million to charity, $5 million that according to david fahrenthold's reporting thus far, donald trump will never contribute to charity, because donald

this is about trump. we agree, though we may have policy disagreements, we agree putin is an authoritarian thug, and to call him a strong leader and compare him favorably to the president of thend is wrong. if yan, speaker ryan, can't call out his nominee, if lindsey graham can't back away from his previous endorsement of trump, all these criticisms don't matter. >> you think lindsey graham is really endorsing trump? >> he has. >> i don't think he loves the guy. >> where is john mccain on this stuff? >> this weird kind of bromance going with this guy with his shirt off rieding a horse. there's something strange in the neighborhood. thank you both. he will probably respond to that. >>> up next, hillary clinton's biggest supporters are hitting the campaign trail. elizabeth warren is out there today in philadelphia, pennsylvania. she's at penn among the elite. next week, the president and first lady take their turn. clipten's got her a-listers out there. does donald trump have anyone like that for his cavalr

we want trump. >> trump supporters don't know the exact direction, trump will take them. they only believe it is better (?)

trump. a lot of the support we see are people who are actually saying they want to look at the libertarian or green party candidates. listen, they both had a bump coming out of their conventions. as we said for 14 months, most people start paying close attention to the election come september, but also, i think what is really important here, victor, is that hillary clinton is still doing exceptionally well in key battle ground steps in florida, ohio and even north carolina. while donald trump has i think a very small lead there, she's cutting into that. >> you think this has nothing to do with the drip drip drip every week of headlines about the e-mails? >> no, because i think the american people, while the e-mail situation is serious and hillary clinton has admitted it was a mistake. i think the american people want to move on and talk about more substantive issues. listen, at the time when donald trump will have a good week, he'll go and basically do something and his campaign continues to

trump. that's particularly important in the suburbs. it's particularly important with female voters. so we're going to be looking to see whether we do see a more gracious donald trump on stage, whether we see someone who wants to appear presidential and will debate hillary clinton on facts, on sort of her record rather than some of those below-the-belt references you mentioned earlier, jake. >> all right, sar a moistua mur. let's go to jeff zelany. he's been covering the clinton campaign. what have you learned of how secretary clinton has spent the last few hours? >> reporter: secretary clinton has driven here from her home in chappaqua after several mock debate sessions. she said she's looking forward to this debate in this exact setting. since 9:00 p.m. eastern time, she has stood on a mock stage at her home and she has done this debate. she has a stand-in for donald trump, a stand-in for a moderator and a small group of advisers. at the moment she is rested, she is reading, and getting re

donald trump has 9,000. donald trump does not want to have a policy debate because he hasn't put forth policy proposals. >> he has put forth many. >> name one. >> factories from mexico coming back. >> how are you bringing them back. >> if you send your companies to mexico. >> he also said apple is going to produce phones here. how is that going to work? that makes no sense. >> the clinton campaign always wants to get -- >> don. >> angela. >> don, hello, i'm over here in tv timeout. i just want to time in quickly to say, listen, donald trump is selling americans a dream, and part of the issue is there's a book that's now pretty old called "what's the matter with kansas" and we know for years republicans have been pushing the american dream, pedaling the american dream to people who will never achieve it base odd the policies and priorities that they have. donald trump has not just fallen into that, he has embraced that. in fact, created a monster out of this situation. he basically is calling republicans to t

got that, trump? >> get out of bed! >> i don't want him anywhere near the white house. >> this is the last word on campaign 2016. >> well, tonight the rats are swimming away from the sinking ship, and they are swimming straight to "the new york times." trump campaign staffers are now anonymously leaking big-time to "the new york times" and other reporters about what a nut house it is inside the trump campaign. one source told nbc news katy tur that the debate was, quote, a disaster. that source said that donald trump's children are not happy with the campaign's leadership of kellyanne conway, steven bannon and david bossi. these campaign sources who are leaking to reporters about how bad things are inside the cam trump campaign are still taking their campaign paychecks. capitalism presents us all with a challenge. and that is what we won't do for money. what legal thing will we not do for money? no matter how much they pay us. a lot of people don't want anything to do with the cigarette business, for

their take, trump choked. joining me now, donald trump's surrogate, steve, thanks for being with us. always great to have you here. let me ask but this back and forth between donald trump and now mexican's president, enrique pena nieto. afterward, pena tweeted that he did tell trump that mexico would not pay for the wall. is it a mistake for trump not to go and say they will pay for it? >> perhaps like that bill murray movie, it got lost in translation. i don't know. this is so unimportant. what was important is the fact donald trump went down there and acted incredibly presidential and statesman like and he reached out to somebody who compared him to mussolini and hitler and yet he looked past that and said we have much bigger issues as neighbors and friends and allies and we can improve on this relationship. he reached out to him and it seemed like he negotiated with two men with very serious responsibilities. by the way, a lot of people have doubted him as a world leader. can he be diplomatic? i think he sh

of donald trump. he said he would start a shooting war with iran if iranians in little boats made gestures toward our destroyers, the most lethal ships in history. and rudy giuliani justified war crimes that donald trump says he wants to commit, by saying that in war anything is legal. he said that in the country that prosecuted nazis for war crimes in nuremberg. we executed them because of what rudy giuliani said is legal in war. if the news media treated the trump campaign the way it has treated every presidential campaign prior to trump and the other presidential campaign that is going on during the trump campaign, the clinton campaign, if the news media treated the trump campaign like it treats every other campaign, donald trump by now would have been forced to retract his statement about going to war over a gesture. and rudy giuliani would have been forced to apologize for his comment, justifying everything that has ever been done in war anywhere in the world, including everything that nazi germa

trump donald tru donald trump, a state that president obama won twice, trump with an exploding population of latinos, donald trump is leading hillary clinton in nevada right now. he could flip that obama state into a red state. how on earth is that happening? it's one of the mysteriies political experts have to think about as they look at that map. donald trump is on the grou jacob soboroff is in las vegas. donald trump is doing well there. jacob, how is that happening? >> reporter: it's a really curious situation happening here, and as you said, 28% of nevadans are latinos. when you look at our national polling, donald trump is pulling in 18% of the latino vote, which seems high given all the things he's said about latinos over the course of his campaign. but when you focus on nevada, he is pulling 30% of the latino vote according to our latest state poll. not 13, 3-0. what i wanted to know, i called up one of donald trump's advisory campaign members, a guy named jesus vasquez, and i asked him if i could come on his show and talk to these listeners about how they think trump is and how t

tony schwartz, who co-wrote trump's book with trump, has said that. he said he projects everything he worries about himself, he accuses you of. >> you said about corruption and health the evidence seems to indicate hillary clinton may be those things where donald trump may not be. >> john mccain set the gold standard for medical disclosure. hillary clinton has set the gold standard for financial disclosure and i will say it a second time, got no credit from the media. no credit whatsoever. >> it's not about credit. >> of course it is. because you bang on her when she doesn't disclose something but you don't reward her when she does. we should be awarding politicians like senator mccain when he disclosed medical records or hillary, 30 years of tax returns. [ speaking simultaneously ] >> we are setting up the wrong set of incentives. >> we talk about the fact donald trump hasn't released his tax returns every day here. >> i think he's getting away with that. >> i have been asked that once or twice. >> she becomes her own worst enemy in a way. then have

is what donald trump did. it is his right to ask how aggressive her did it, he was exercising his right as an american citizen. >> the difference between barry goldwater, and mitt romney, everyone knew where they were born just like this in case everyonene everyone knows where barack obama was born, though he still questions it. theirs a difference the there's difference there -- >> you still have the right to question a person's eligible to run for office. >> and we have the right to question the judgment. >> you do. >>> stick around. there's a lot more to discuss about this, because it was quite a day, along with everything else, there was a political flip-flop that took place with this issue. all candidates do t hillary clinton has done it, though not quite like this, so because donald trump is in the spotlight, a closer look at the flip-flopery, that's next. ha-ha-ha! um-hmmm! hey! nikki! what are you doing here? you tell me, stephen. what? i'm snapping. you've been streaming my videos all morning. now you

trump says, hey, if anyone knows the system, i do. mr. trump said it is a rigged system. i know how to fix it because i participated in it. >> carol, the biggest thing to me though is you've got one complaint out a state that has over 20 million people in it. one complaint. do we really think the ag even -- again, there were three years before she was even the attorney general, when the previous -- >> but we also know how donald trump feels about lawsuits. >> well, i mean, if i were donald trump, i would fight them if i didn't think there was merit to it. just like i don't think representative sellers would. but when the attorney generals only had one case in the entire state, doesn't seem like there's much of a complaint factor there. >> well, the other thing -- go ahead, ryan. >> i was going to say, the only wrinkle with that, andre, i thought drew's report was very careful and fair. the one thing "the new york times" did note today is the "orlando sentinel," big paper in florida, reported on new york opening this investigation against trump right before the donation to

this speech was pure trump, who trump is. someone who has nationalistic impulses when it comes to immigration, going after illegal immigration. >> maria, the difference between then and now and last week and now when it comes to donald trump on this topic is today he did get the opportunity to share the stage with the head of state, with the president of mexico, offered some, i guess, some extra legitimacy by that. you always look at that plausible test they talk about when voters go into the voting booth can they see the candidate sitting there and performing the job of president. did the president of mexico do donald trump a favor in that regard? >> i'm scratching my head over that one. he has one of the lowest favorability in mexico. that made to sense to me quite frankly. but speaking about trying to be macho and being a man that can go toe to toe with someone, donald trump was facing the president of mexico and didn't have the guts to ask him to pay for the wall. yet he says i'm going to make them pay for the wall after

this is not from trump. he questioned the birth place or dodged when asked to give an answer on the topic. does the candidate repeat what his campaign is saying? the timing is significant. this statement from a spokesman came hours after trump's comments to the washington post were published. the post asked him if obama was born in the u.s. he said i'll answer that question at the right time. i don't want to answer it yet. still he has not. hillary clinton then jumped on what he said. she said this while addressing the congressional hispanic caucus institute at the annual gala. >> today, he did it again. he was asked one more time, where was president obama born. and he still wouldn't say hawaii. he still wouldn't say america. this man wants to be our next president? when will he stop this ugliness? this bigotry? >> reporter: this playing out as donald trump is making a play for african-american voters or some see a play for voters who are turned off by what they believe is a very belated and thus far ineffe

trump! >> with the nomination all but in hand, donald trump's campaign team promised the republican establishment that they would soon see a candidate behaving like a president. >> what a crowd. what a crowd. >> instead -- >> i have a judge who is a hater of donald trump. a hater. >> trump decided, as usual, to go his own way. >> the judge has been very unfair, has not done a good job. >> attacking the federal judge presiding over two cases, claiming trump university was a scam that preyed on those who wanted to get rich like trump. >> at trump university we teach success. >> the big political story this morning surrounding donald trump is that he's not backing down from his attack -- >> telling his top surrogates in a conference call that he won't apologize. >> we're in front of a very hostile judge. >> and igniting a firestorm because the judge, gonzalo curiel, an american born in indiana, was of mexican descent. >> he's given us ruling after after ruling after ruling negative. >> i've bee

so trump is here right now. i can show you the tail in the motorcade and inside trump is being given a tour of the facility. even though she was against the visit, a supervisor will still give him a tour. the plan is for trump to go to a local church that's serving as a water distribution site and it is there that presumably if he's going to meet with anyone from the community, that's where it would happen. although there is no public events scheduled for donald trump while he's on the ground here in flint michigan. we should point out that the mayor is critical of trump's visit. she's also on the record for hillary clinton's supporter. the mayor actually spoke at the democratic national convention. a little sense he's in hostility here. there are supporters and detractors all standing here on the corner waiting for his motorcade to leave. >> months ago, there were some trump fans. it is not entirely clinton but it is definitely clinton's country. hillary clinton is still resting in her home in new york today af

donald trump! donald trump! oh, my god! >> the hostile takeover of donald trump has happened! >> will it be, will it be? yes, it is! >> yeah! your republican presidential nominee in 2007 indulging in a little wrestle mania. this weekend mr. one and the same expressed his opinion to a room full of fellas on the presidential looks or lack thereof of his opponent, hillary clinton. >> i was the first one to use the term. it's a rigged system. when you see all the money going into hillary clinton's bank account, why? to have her? give me a break. think she looks presidential, fellas? hillary clinton would be a disaster. >> she looks presidential, fellas. today the clinton campaign pointed out that donald trump has been saying this kind of thing for weeks now. >> now you tell me she looks presidential, folks. i look presidential. >> i don't think so. she doesn't even look presidential to me. she certainly doesn't. >> she looks so presidential. you see her walk onto the stage. she looks presidential, i don't think so. i don't think so. i don't think so. i don't think. i being i think

trump foundation. for the first time we're hearing a trump advisor explain why it's hanging on the wall of a trump property is okay. joining me now is washington post reporter david faranthol. david, trump advisor bars epstein appeared on msnbc yesterday and he explained why he believes nothing is illegal. >> on the painting, there are irs rules which specifically state that when a foundation has an item, an individual can store those items on behalf of the foundation in order to help it. >> is he storing the items? >> with storage costs and that's absolutely proper. again, everything mr. trump has done is within all applicable rules and regulations. >> you've been reporting on this, speaking to tax experts. is this breaking the law? >> it appears so, yes. so the law here is about self-dealing. if you are the head of a foundation, like trump is, you can't take the money out of your charity and use it to buy things for yourself or to buy things for your business. in this case trump foundation spent $10,

the fundamentalal problem with trump is trump. he doesn't know what he doesn't know and he doesn't know a lot. he wants a microphone and crowd or television camera. i don't think there will be any serious prep. there will be a couple of questions and few of the yemen throw questions at him. we know who trump is now. what hillary would try i guess to do in the debate and trump will go on the raving attack because hillary will be ahead and have something to lose. the question is how does she handle that mad man show, if she's too passive, she'll look too weak, if she froths at the mouth like trump. she's not somebody the electorals are wild about. it's going to be a zoo it's going to be the craziest debate i think any of us have seen in the politics. >> hillary has the capacity, from that forum last night, as well as previous statements, she's got the capacity right now to go on the defensive in the biggest way possible and to unleash all the potential surrogates, the president, the vice president, republicans to go out and say, don

he calls him trump. the other -- i hear sean taking it to the game, which makes it really disgusting. you know, this is a very serious issue. black people have for centuries in this country felt like outsiders, right. because of all the things that's been done to us in this country. this was the country on a hill that has moral standing above everyone else. every other country is able to say, what about the way you treat blacks? this country is the like, we don't have an answer for that. the election of barack obama was a watershed moment, where we finally feel we are a fully part of the country. we are not second class citizens and to have this gasp go up to the president and say i want to see your papers, boy, was like this moment like even a black president is still beneath any white person who wants to allege you're not really american and to say you're not really american when an american can be almost anything is so deeply offensive. this was incredibly hurtful and painful for a lot of us that chan

and that's precisely what donald trump and i will do. donald trump has a vision. to make america great again. and it all begins with making america strong again. it all begins with recognizing we live in tum ultous time. it will be this weekend we mark the 15th anniversary of 9/11. that was a day that i was in this city as many were as well. i found myself on capitol hill. i'll never forget the sights and sound of that day. i'll never forget seeing half of the sky filled with billowing smoke. i will promise you this. the day that donald trump becomes president of the united states of america, we will again rebuild our military, we will restore the arsenal of democracy and america will again stand tall on the world stage. we will stand with our allies and we will stand up to our enemies. we cannot have four more years apologizing to her enemies an abandoning our friends. america needs to be strong. for the world to be safe. and on the world stage, i promise you, donald trump will lead from strength. we will stand with our allies and if the world knows nothing else,

if ivanka trump and the trump children do not agree, that she deserves it? then tell the 84 million people who heard your father say that last night, that you don't agree. if kellyanne conway does not agree that she deserves it then tell the 84 million people who heard that last night that she doesn't agree. tell the 84 million people that no one deserves it, or live the rest of your lives with the shame that donald trump deserves for everything he has said about rosie o'donnell and other women. live with that shame. because donald trump said everybody agrees with him. and that means you. we'll be right back. ♪ and these are the lungs.

are so not donald trump. how is he going to play that character? >> well, it's tough. and i feel like the only way he can play this character, it doesn't sound like donald trump, if he had a teleprompter and because it's a private interview, there could be a teleprompter where he uses and the bishop have his questions written out and he reads from the teleprompter and given these answers. i also suspect there are a couple of answers one of them why should undecided black voters vote for you, you know, i'm appealing to you, i'm going to be a good partner to you, my standings are 8% and they're climbing. i think there are a couple of things that sound like him. it's going to be hard for him without feeling as though someone wrote them for him. >> he probably won't be asked if how the klu klux klan feels about him. >> you paying attention to the presidential election? >> oh, yes. >> in your own personal opinion who is best for the job? >> i think donald trump would be best for the job. >> the reason because of a

trump's character. yesterday the same day you saw the jimmy fallon interview, he gave an economic speech about the future of america that one publication, newspaper said the best speech he's given yet, the speech he should gave every day until november 8th, about raising up minorities and hard working americans and giving a chance to succeed. before that a great policy speech about helping hard working americans with child care costs and she has nothing to offer forward except going around and race baiting and trying drum up support through these negative means. stuart: i just want to show everybody the new trump international hotel. it's in washington d.c. this is where donald trump is going to be speaking moments from now, literally. i would then expect him to take questions. jeff, i've got a serious question for you. if he does q & a and we believe he'll do q & a. there's no prompter, no script. is he going to go back to the old trump off the cuff making sometimes outrageous statements? >> no, no, yo

trump." as the book was close to publication, ivana composed a statement ultimately printed on the book's first page. "i felt violated as the love and tenderness which he normally exhibited towards me was absent. i refer to this as a rape, but i do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense." trump has denied the accusations. ivana commented again on the accusation, as rumors swirled last year after trump announced his candidacy. "the story is totally without merit. donald and i are the best of friends and together have raised three children that we love and are very proud of. i have nothing but fondness for donald and wish him the best of luck on his campaign." attorneys for donald trump say the disclosure is not required for political candidates and is not the responsibility of the courts. they cite as an example president obama not releasing his academic records and secretary clinton not revealing her full medical records, even though her medical condition is being

trump by a point? even clinton said they had colorado locked down and pulling resources in terms of television advertising. now an indication and there have been a few that shows it really may be a close race there after all. we can show you how about this. pennsylvania is another state that early on the trump campaign was targeting. they got discouraging numbers, but here is a poll showing a close race in pennsylvania. there is more that come out and this is another one. last time maine went for a republican, the twist in maine. they give each one of them an electoral vote. this is rural maine and bangor, auburn. donald trump is dominating there. there will be a split of electoral votes in maine and see who gets more state-wide. that person will get two for the state. those are the swing state polls to fill you in on. in terms of expectations, you heard halle jackson talking about how the campaign approached this. something else unusual. something else unorthodox about their approach. the campaign man

if the trump family is still operating the trump organization, a president trump could take actions as president that would finally benefit the trump organization and his children who would be running it, he could also take actions that would benefit himself and his organization after his presidency. so, yeah, we were first to report last night the bare bones of this bombshell cover story from "newsweek" magazine, it is now official out, and that's a big deal. the main response from the trump campaign so far is the line about how he's only benefiting his children. they have also taken a bunch of swipes at the reporter himself. this story is a big one, we're going to have more during the course of this hour. that happened today. >>> also today, in pure political gossip terms, today hackers released two years of e-mails from colin powell, now we well now, in private correspondent, general powell has unbelievably even profanely critical things to say about a lot of other bald faced names in politics, everybody from donald trump to hillary clinton, to bill clinton to donald rumsfeld, to pa

she's attacking donald trump, questioning trump's own corruption and personal behavior. essentially trying to say okay, you might not like me, he's worse. it's much more about taking the communities with the media to disqualify trump and to get them back on -- i was going to call it equal footing. it's subterranean footing, i guess. but to make him just as bad, if not worse. >> if you look at three, four weeks since the convention, she had that convention bounce and that is 8 points. we still have 60-some days. look at what donald trump has done in that short amount of time and it appears the enthusiasm has grown for him, the enthusiasm has lessened for her. they should be worried with 60-some days left, that should be a concern for the clintons. >> listen, i was hearing from clinton supporters, clinton advisers formal and informal that they were concerned when she had that bounce thanks in large part to her successful convention, but also thanks to -- i should say the success of that convention was baiting donald trump into going after the gold star family and then he k

trumps trumps recently going to my majority audiences. i think the act question is about crime or exact question about race in particular? listen to what the answer was. >> we have a situation where we have our inner cities, african-american and hispanics living in hell because it's so dangerous. i'm saying where is this? is this a war-torn country? what are we doing? we have to stop the violence. we have to bring back law and order. >> we cannot just say law and order. we have have to say we have to come forward with a plan that is going to divert people from the criminal justice system and deal with mandatory minimum sentences. >> the question was healing communities. donald trump's answer was law and order. angela rye, what did you make of how she answered this? >> i really appreciate hillary clinton's answer. one of the reasons for that is hillary, for the first time i can recall in a presidential debate where there are millions of viewers talked about bias. there is another clip and i don't know if you will show it. lester holt follo

rattle trump. in response, as hard as this is to believe, trump has invited gennifer flowers to sit in the front row, not making this up, that gennifer flowers who, of course had an extramarital affair with bill clinton sometime in the '80s. gamesmanship aside, one thing we know for sure, the two the candidates are taking very different approaches getting ready for tomorrow night's big debate. >> while trump huddles at trump tower, clinton is hunkering down in and around her chappaqua hope, both preparing for the host important presidential debate in decades. >> you are going to hear donald trump doing a lot of trash talking. >> clinton is trying to steer the conversation to temperament. >> she's a slob. she ate like a pig. >> on stage, clinton will try to get under trump's skin. >> excuse me. i have given my answer, lying ted. >> the challenge for clinton, predicting which trump will show up. >> people ask me that question, are you going to go out there and do this and that? i don't know that. >>

the mexican trump, the quiet trump or the trump of the tweet s not son-in-law there one trump, that's clear, but wherever he's in an adversarial situation the competitive trump comes and he's so far incapable of the self-discipline that would be required to let things go. hillary clinton let things go so she appeared to be the ronald reagan of 1901980. she was positive. it was supposed to be reverse. it was supposed to be trump who was presidential and seeming positiv positive. >> it's a little bit like seeing a doctor when he takes a hammer and hits your knee and you reflexively go up. all she had to do is pick up the hammer boom, he kept going up. >> he's a competitor and so just in talking to the people around him this morning they to a person have said you better believe he got it, he did it his own way the first time and it didn't go as well as he wanted to, to put it mildly and that he's being told that privately and that he's going to try to figure it out and restrain himself for the next debate. >> you don't get mulligans on a first debate. >> for the next debate. >> but you'r

night about donald trump? >> well, look, like i said, this is the time for the voters to pick a president. we'll have people tuning into this election for the first time. they're going to see the two candidates on stage. i think they're going to see donald trump is unfit, unprepared and over his head. i doubt he will have a command of the issues. i certainly -- >> you think he'll take care o >> hillary will have to press the point, challenge him to reveal what his plans are, for example, he has not revealed any plan whatsoever to defeat isis. he says it's a secret and that he knows more about it than the generals do. this is a time for him to present those plans. maybe he will. but we'll have to see. >> in a little bit of psychological welfare. donald trump said if dopey mark cuban wants to sit on the front row, perhaps i'll be gennifer flowers alongside of him. gennifer flowers has tweeted the new york times saying she's going to be there. >> you know, this debate is supposed to be about issues and how these

where trump spoke earlier. the trump campaign feels like it has him on this deplorable remark. >> even before donald trump took stage, rudolph giuliani took the stage telling the crowd, i'm in that basket of deplorables with you. i'm proud to be there with you. the crowd erupted with applause. when trump took stage, he said he will be president for all americans. he said hillary clinton is running a campaign without any solutions. >> donald trump is not letting hillary clinton off the hook for her basket of deplorables remark. >> i call you hard working american patriots who love yourry and want a better future for all our people. >> the gop continuing on hammer his democratic rival for these comments on friday. >> you can put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. >> these are not deplorable people. that i can tell you. >>> and bringing support orders stage at his event in asheville, north carolina, to drive his point home. clinton has said she regrets using the term half but sh

trump doesn't. he is one man giving rallies in one state or another day to day and i think if republicans lose in november, one of the questions is going to be did republicans lose because people didn't give money and therefore, they didn't build out a ground game or did people not give money because they thought trump was a losing candidate. >> just staying with you on this, given what you just said about the trump campaign, it's obviously really important the rnc is taking on a lot of the functions the trump campaign would normally do on its own, what's the state of the relationship right now between trump tower and the republican national committee? >> the relationship is and always has been incredibly strained. trump poo-poohed doing a lot of the things a candidate does. there are certain things, particularly fund-raising, that candidates have traditionally taken the lead of. mitt romney was an unbelievable fund-raiser and he went out, asked people for money. trump hasn't done that and relegated

our campaign, donald trump do not. >> donald trump, but why donald trump has not directly said it, philip, is the point. >> in january, wolf blitzer when ted cruz wasn't born a candidate. he said who knows? he doesn't want to focus it. right now the donald trump is extensively reaching out to african-american voters and they're doing this outreach and it is clear this is an issue and that's why -- and that is why the trump campaign, if donald trump were serious about reaching out to african-american voters this is a fairly easy thing to do and he is not. >> basibasil? >> your outreach to african-americans did not include an apology for the birther question -- >> let me talk. it's an abject failure of this and indeed his campaign because this comment that he's not born here is a proxy for delegitim e delegitimizing this man. the fact that he had to do a press con -- the fact that a president had to do a press conference to produce his birth certificate. what does that say? >> she did not. >>. [ indiscernible ] >> and the fact of the matter is to this day most republicans and probably 20% o

trump needs to speak. mr. trump needs to speak. and that aide was pushing me towards he needs to speak. now mr. trump is standing there between both of us and i'm getting a little irritated by this because i told the "new york times" and everybody else that mr. trump was going to do nothing but he was just going to address the congregation. >> so why did you decide to let him speak? >> i decided because i pushed back on that aide and mr. trump took his speech and, you know what he said? he said whatever the bishop says. he put the speech back in his pocket, didn't have an attitude or anything. he really was the mediator between us two. >> i want to read this. this is ahead of the advice the, "the "detroit free press"" said trump is aiming to use his appearance in a black city with black people to boost his stock among white middle class voters. i'm going to ask you your rear action to that. do you feel in any way that you are -- do you wonder in any way if you're being used by donald trump? >> no, i'm not be used. look, i'm my own

good job, donald trump. donald trump didn't scream at her or say, look at that face. i don't think they will be judged on the same standard at all. in addition to that, when you look at how much they have told the truth, the fact her trustworthiness is in question is astounding to me. he lies so much because he comes across as authentic and wins the fight. it is amazing. >> you saw why the expectations for donald trump are so low because so many critics of trump's say he doesn't deserve to be on the stage. it levels the candidates the second they walk on stage. do you know what? this happened for president obama, then senator obama in 2008. so many people said he's not ready. he's too young, too inexperienced. mccain has the experience. the second they walked on stage and then senator obama held his own on foreign policy issues that were supposed to be the strength of john mccain. in the minds of the voters watching, he passed a test. what's going to happen for the headline that the trump folks want to drive is they want to just pass the test of, hey, he actually dese
