hillary clinton was for sale. hillary clinton directly or indirectly insisted something of value -- i'm using a phrase from the federal bribery statute -- be put into a bank account to which she eventually had access in order for her to act in her official capacity to benefit the person who put that money in the bank account. stated differently, you want the secretary of state of the united states to exercise authority she has by giving you an exemption from a requirement or speeding up an application or process, you are not going to get it unless you contribute money to her and her husband's foundation. if this isn't the basis for a criminal investigation and if this doesn't arouse voters to realize the woman is the crookedest wombr person to run for president since lbj, nothing will. the a.p. giving us the exact number of people who met with, had phone conversations with hillary clinton and gave specific sums of money. you said she was for sale or put the u.s. government as part of a for sale sign. but this newl

>> hillary clinton's ahead, not because people are in love with hillary clinton. in fact, her negatives are in the 50s in each of these states. the trouble for trump, his negatives are in the 60s in each of these states. not to use the old cliche, the lesser of two evils, but you have someone who is very, very popular in donald trump and someone who is not particularly popular in hillary clinton. so that goes clinton's way in all these states. >> the best thing clinton has going for her is trump. >> although the clinton people are more favorable to clinton, than the trump people are to trump. clinton's people are motivated by their like of her than their dislike of trump. so there's a little difference there, but the bottom line, this is an election that has really no great road maps because we've been surprised every other day. and there's likely to be many more of those down the road before we're done in november. right now, it's playing hillary clinton's way. we'll see if it continues. >> you'll do a lot more polls before then. thanks for the time. much more ah

this is not a blow out for hillary clinton. sh is a close race, she has an edge, but donald trump has an opportunity there. they would like to see the numbers reserved. when you move on to pennsylvania, you see the gap that can be problematic for donald trump. hillary clinton is at 52%. donald trump is at 42%. this is a huge gap and the trump campaign made no secret of the fact that they want to make a play for pennsylvania even though it has been such a difficult state for republicans. wolf, right now it looks like a long shot. >> is there any indication that they're going to start buying significant numbers of ads. the clinton super pacs are spending a lot of money on them. >> that is a must ri of the trump campaign. initially they didn't have much in their campaign war chest, but they ramped up their fundraising and they tapped into this small donor base. they did a little digital sizing and we see the pro trump super pac ramp up a little, but it is nowhere near where hillary clinton is at. this is a candidate that believed

hillary clinton is the oppositional candidate. the press is not the oppositional party and they shouldn't pretend to be the oppositional party. what they will say, and i agree with them in part, this campaign, the trump campaign has no precedent, howie. there's nothing in american political history like it. i don't know why he doesn't adopt the theme song from the real chairman of the board, frank sinatra "my way" because he's doing everything his way. it is difficult even to adjust to if you've been covering politics. >> his way worked in the primary. he has been stepping up the rhetoric. let me tell you something he said at a rally just the other day. >> the media is unbelievably dishonest. i would actually say that the media is almost as crooked as crooked hillary clinton. >> do you think that these kinds of attacks on the press, which are intensifying, as i say, help donald trump? >> howie, they're counter productive and you know that. you've got such a long history in the press. first of all, he makes no distinctions between

hid hillary clinton add -- did hillary clinton advance her cause and do what she needed to do at this convention and how will it benefiter? >> i think the big answer is yes. by common consensus among people who are interested in image and that is what conventions largely are in addition to unifying the party, their a television production, there was a well-crafted convection. we talk about how one big speech is what people remember, usually the nominee's. this convention is received more holistically. they put together four nights, strong speakers from michelle obama, hillary clinton, joe biden, barack obama. all of those people are huge, political talents. but the convention advanced an argument in toto and it was an argument about the d. j. party and hillary clinton are the optimistic, patriotic party, and that the republican party under donald trump is the pes pessimic party. the sum total argument that this convention made and the way people saw it at home, i think that will do a lot of good for hillary clinton. whether that translates into a large bump in the polls, i don't know.

hillary clinton's people said not by them. a campaign aide telling cnn this was an open-door event for the public, and quote, the campaign was unaware of his attendance until after the event, but this unforced error by the clinton campaign in a key battleground state has even supporters saying they need to do some damage control. >> they need to go to battle stations here and they need to disavow the guy and they need to fire the advance person. key questions tonight, are the people seated behind the candidates at these events vetted for those placements? dan marika, a cnn reporter embedded with the clinton campaign, he tells us that very often at these events an advance person, usually a young person, goes through the crowd and picks people out to go on stage. dan says that often those people are vips familiar to the campaign or they could be people simply selected for diversity in age or race. john? >> all right. brian todd, thanks so much. back now with the panel. i've covered a lot of campaigns as have you, people who sit

also last night donald trump called hillary clinton a bigot. it's something that even that crowd in mississippi was a bit stunned to hear. there's a woman that was standing behind him who opened her eyes very wide and dropped her jaw. she couldn't believe that. so donald trump is stepping on his image continually. but at the same time, they are trying to make a very concerted effort, at least with donald trump's words to appeal to the african-american and the hispanic communities. today he held a roundtable with up and coming gop youth leaders to try to figure out a way to do effective outreach in minority communities to get them on board and under the gop tent. donald trump is continuing to tailor his message to african-american communities basically saying over and over again what do you have to lose. cities under democratic control have not been good to african-american communities. they are living in poverty, he says. they have no jobs, he says. they have bad education system, he says. the issue with that, though, is that when you go into t

and hillary clinton's state department. what do you make of all this money going to the foundation or going for huge fees for bill clinton's speeches and how the state department treated those people? >> serious unanswered questions. but if i can step back just for what's going on here? what's this all about with her and trump? in the case of trump, i have really no idea what he might do if he ever became president. if you look at the statements, the proposals, the ideas, it's a kind of a garage sale and i don't know that there's a rembrandt behind that lawn mower that won't start. but i haven't see he has not communicated that. she has somewhat communicated what she o would do. her personal e-mails, remember the fbi director said there are thousands of e-mails, work-related, that were not turned over. there are those top secret discussions, very, very serious. you find -- one case, doug band twho was, as we pointed out, a top official at the foundation, the clinton campaign says no, no, no. he wasn't working there. he was

all hillary clinton has to offer is more of the same. more regulations, more bureaucrats and more restrictions on american energy and on american production. more of that. if you were a foreign power looking to weaken america, you couldn't do better than hillary clinton's economic

basil, floor to you, what are we going to hear from hillary clinton? >> similar to what she did in new york, small business, tax credits, apprenticeship programs. trish: small business tax credits. >> she talked about apprenticeship programs where businesses that provide apprenticeship programs and bring in new workers get a tax break, that's worked in this country and worked in other countries with similar issues for manufacturing. trish: what about freebies? >> what freebies? >> free child care, free education. >> well, in the democratic platform, we've talked about paid family leave. we talked about $15 minimum wage, i definitely think you will hear more about that. trish: all right, and what about tax hikes? >> i don't know if there's going to be anything with respect to changes in the statutory tax program, so that i actually don't know and couldn't answer. trish: one of the things i find so confusing about her platform, i don't know what it is. i'm a business and economics reporter. trump pretty clear from the beginning, he came out and changed,

she loathes hillary clinton. and yet she was asked about this insulting a gold star family and she is squarely on the side of the khans and clearly connected with the loss in that regard. >> and this is by design. this error on the trump campaign. the clinton campaign put captain khan's parent in their convention program on their final night of the convention. not only did they want the message out there from them, but there is no doubt there is a strategic decision made it perhaps that might engage donald trump back in a back and forth and it is proven to be just that. >> i don't think they could have had it play out any better. in fact i think they don't -- they are sort of counting their lucky stars it played out. >> they didn't expect this to unfold the way it did. is that what you're saying? >> i don't think they expected it. if he is taking the bait on this, he really couldn't have taken the bait any more. those are her own words, right? talking about donald trump taking the bait. >> chris, we showed number

this is hillary clinton's close adviser. >> saying hillary clinton is anti-women? >> huma abedin, if you look at the writings she has, that goes exactly opposite of what hillary clinton has said. >> there's no possibility that huma abedin or hillary clinton -- >> but she wrote those things! >> let her respond. >> it depends on what -- >> let him respond. one at a time. one at a time. >> it is impossible for anyone to state that huma abedin would be anti-woman. it's factually wrong. >> how is that factually? it's black and white -- >> let's put aside huma and steve bannon. the polling john king is showing is showing women's perceptions of donald trump -- >> who is running for president. >> and he have made a decision, clearly, by that polling in the swing states, by what john king is talking about, they have made the observation and the decision that donald trump is a misogynist. and all the people that he draws in, whether it be roger ailes, that's kind of his culture. that's -- >> -- but can we point out the women here? >> -- are rejecting donald trump. >> what is

the bill was signed by bill clinton. supported by hillary clinton. right here in this community, you lost one in seven manufacturing jobs since bill clinton put china into the world trade portion. another hillary clinton backed deal, and he have be backing the transpacific partnership, tpp, if she is elected. just mark your words, just remember, you know it's going to happen, she considered it the gold standard. when she heard me talking about it, she said i can't win this one, so she went against it, he have go back immediately and you saw that when the governor of virginia, her friend, said that would happen. detroit lost more than one in three manufacturing jobs following the nafta and wto agreements that were supported very strongly by my opponent. no industry has been hurt more by hillary clinton's policies than the automobile industry, or as we call it the car industry. it has been a total disaster. according to the bureau of the labor of statistics, there was 285,000 auto workers in michigan. now that number is down to 160,000 and it will have

point hillary clinton was working in the state department. so you do wonder if there was some kind of impartiality or treatment given to these parties that didn't go to everyone and that's not how our government is supposed to work. >> blurred lines that these e-mails show. a lot of smoke. no real fire and the clinton campaign trying to sluff it off as being just that. wolf? >> some of hillary clinton supporters are saying that these e-mails, these nearly 300 pages of e-mails were from clinton foundation individuals and hillary clinton aides at the state department, but she herself was not in these e-mail chains. she wasn't cc'd or actually sending or receiving these specific e-mails, is that right? >> that is what they are saying and trying to draw a very strict line between hillary clinton herself and what we know to be her two closest aides. a lot of republicans who have been investigating this in congress are not buying those excuses. >> all right, drew. thank you very much. drew griffin reporting for us. we'll continue to follow both of

hillary clinton: i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. vo: in times of crisis america depends on steady leadership. donald trump: "knock the crap out of them, would you? seriously..."vo: clear thinking... donald trump: "i know more about isis than the generals do, believe me." vo: and calm judgment. donald trump: "and you can tell them to go fu_k themselves." vo: because all it takes is one wrong move. donald trump audio only: "i would bomb the sh_t out of them." vo: just one. there's no one road out there. no one surface... no one speed... no one way of driving on each and every road. but there is one car that can conquer them all. the mercedes-benz c-class. five driving modes let you customize the steering, shift points, and suspension to fit the mood you're in... and the road you're on. the 2016 c-class. lease the c300 for $369 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. >>> breaking news now, donald trump just sat down with anderson cooper for an exclusive reaction to hillary clinton's speech. >> you called hillary clinton last night

the gap is better for hillary clinton. 52% of likely voters plan to vote for hillary clinton, 37% for donald trump. while i'd like you to weigh in on that, mark, i also want to get john avlon to weigh in on that. we love polls and sometimes they're indicative of the way things should go. it's a big gap. >> especially among likely voters, especially because it's wisconsin. keep in mind this is home turf for rnc, reince priebus, paul ryan. they put a lot of effort over the years to turn wisconsin into a republican state. it hasn't worked, even with paul ryan on the ticket with mitt romney, they narrowly lost. this gap is massive. if donald trump is trying to bet on appealing to a new heretofore untapped white working class voter, wisconsin should be looking good. it's not. instead he's playing defense in states they should be coasting in. arizona, missouri. >> georgia. >> georgia which is huge. that's an indication of the trend not being donald trump's friend in this election right now. that's why there's such deep friction between him and the rnc. >> why not take these moments on telev

hillary cl hi hillary clinton was on. take a look at that. >> you don't think there is any legitimate reason you have doubts to use the phrase in the polls, honesty and trust worthiness. >> i think it's fair. i think you should ask donald trump why he is so untrusted. >> so the media liked the theme, unity, stronger together. this is what hillary clinton was saying versus i, alone can fix it. is it because it matches the media distaste for donald trump. >> think think what happened here is the democratic convention did a better job dealing with the negatives and the republicans did not . you take all of the pain, ug ugliness and booing. you jam it into the first night. >> talk about making lemonade out of lemons, your indicateding wit was some kind of a plan. >> no. no. what i'm saying is bernie sanders, whether he will be good or bad you put him on monday. you take all of the things you think could go wrong and you try to get them over on day one. the reason the republicans got worse coverage is because for some reason t

hillary clinton state department and then the e-mails. is that a concern for you? >> i'm not going to defend the e-mails. there's no way i'm going to defend the e-mails. but what i am going to do is choose someone who i think can be a read good president. i wish she did what we did in my congressional office. and we said if you can't defend it at a community meeting comfortably, then you don't do it. >> so the e-mails and the trust factor you think are a lesser threat than what donald trump proposes or his -- >> donald trump is dangerous. >> and hillary clinton is not dangerous? >> no, she's not dangerous. of course she's not dangerous. she's done things that i wish she hadn't done. >> so why is donald trump dangerous? >> because he is ignorant of world events. he says things that are absurd like, you know, russia coming in to ukraine and, i mean, the list is so long. i don't really have to go there. >> do you think that when people compare that there's a false equivalency when people are saying, hillary clinton you can't trust her and th

the flat-out he called hillary clinton last night a bigot. how much of this speech do you think will be a prebut theal to her alt right speech? >> well, he's definitely going to address it when he takes the stage hopefully any moment from now. the campaign telling cnn that he will directly address that alt video that clinton has just put out when he takes the stage here in manchester. he will also once again go after hillary clinton on many of the issues that we've seen before, but specifically when it comes to those alt right movement video that hillary clinton put out, the trump campaign put out their own statement a little earlier this afternoon. it says in part, "hillary clinton and her campaign went to a disgusting new low today as they released a video tying the trump campaign with horrific racial images. this type of rhetoric and repulsive advertising is revolting and completely beyond the pale. i call on hillary clinton to disavow this video and her campaign for this sickening ad that has no place in our world. that statement on beof

clinton's legal problems to more hillary clinton's personal issues, like how tall is hillary clinton becomes a top search term. how old is hillary clinton. that's fine with the clintons. if people are looking for that information, that's fine. they'd much have them looking for that rather than is hillary clinton going to be indicted. for a week it worked. >> paul singer, thank you. "usa today." >> thank you for having me. >> the u.s. military has begun carrying out air strikes in libya, to stop the spread of isis terrorists. the word from the pentagon. it marks a new phase in the fight against the islamic state. a pentagon spokesman says the military today bombed an isis stronghold on the country's north coast. he says air strikes in libya will help prevent the terrorists from setting up a safe haven from which they can launch attacks on the united states and its allies. >>> well, somebody shot down a russian helicopter in syria, killing all five people onboard. that from russia's defense ministry. the deadliest incident for the country's military since september when russia started

hillary clinton is ahead in all of them. in florida, she has a four point edge over trump and widens in pennsylvania, so clinton pulling ahead of trump 48- 39 of the and bigger lead in new hampshire. we'll keep an eye out. as a gop from colorado becomes the first house republican to air political adwith with an anti- trump message. take a listen. >> what do you think about trump? honestly i don't care for him much and i don't trust hillary. i am a marine country comes first. and my duty is to you. >> and later in the adhe will stand up to trump and hold hillary clinton accountable. >> and former pollster for the cruz campaign and nice to have you both. we have new numbers and chris, what do you make of a fellow republican about the nominee. >> my fear is first of many. it is what we warned about that trump could lose see badly he could take the house and senate and create a senate majority that passed hillary's agenda and if trump doesn't stop the blowing and recovery his cam pain. >> this is just after the convention and th

sflr that was hillary clinton today. jim acosta, as far as donald trump, as you said, feeding red meat to the crowd there, how did the crowd react? >> well, they seem to be enjoying every minute of it. they like this version of trump. a little earlier he was a bit more low energy to borrow one of his expressions. when donald trump was talking about the coverage of those second amendment comments, the crowd here and i have not heard was chanting, lock them up, note lock her up, talking about hillary clinton, lock them up, as in us, the media. >> you just called him low energy, what do you expect? >> let's bring back the panel. donald trump called president obama the founder of isis. >> well look, he opened up room for isis to go by not leaving a stay behind force in iraq, invading libya, syria, allowing to grow to 40,000 strong. in that sense he is. when hillary clinton calls donald trump an isis prop began dis. the other side isn't innocent in throwing it around. this accusation is far more accurate to donald trump being

hillary clinton. joining me is donald rafella. good evening, david. >> hello. >> who is with john kasich and the bushes and cruz and the rest of them who were saying they're not going to support donald trump? who do they think they're hurting or just sore losers or small people? >> judge, no republican nominee in the history of our party got every republican to vote for them in a general election so this is not particularly unique that there are republicans, not supporting the nominee. now, for trump, he needs to go on and find democrats and independents to come into his camp to win this election. but beyond that, i think really to the point of your question, is that if you're not supporting donald trump and you don't want a fourth barack obama or third barack obama term, then what are you doing to make sure hillary clinton doesn't become the nominee? and even further than that, donald trump can't lose by a large margin and it not have a huge impact on the rest of the ticket. and so, what many this fr
