Lets go to jeff with more on Hillary Clintons return to the campaign trail. Whats the latest . If Hillary Clinton admits shortcomings. She did say she wished she would have taken some time off earlier. She also said it allowed her time to reflect and reconnect. Tonight what this race is all about is a much closer one than she would like. Hillary clinton intent on sending a clear message. I have to say, its great to be back on the campaign trail. Returning to the spotlight in North Carolina today after being sidelined all week with pneumonia. Im not great at taking it easy even under ordinary circumstances but with just two months to go until election day, sitting at home was pretty much the last place i wanted to be. She left her home for the first time in four days after nearly collapsing sunday at the 9 11 memorial. It caused her to disclose a diagnosis she planned to keep quiet. Clinton was trying to turn the page. Hi. Hi. Welcome back to stronger together. You know, i have been involved in politics in one way or another for many years. It is not an easy business. It can get rough and i have built up some defenses. When it comes to Public Service i am better at the service part than the public part. Her reflections start there. She quickly seized on the rivals for attention. I confessed ill never be the showman and thats okay with me. Just look at the show he put on with dr. Oz today. He is returning to the campaign trail to a far more competitive landscape. A new New York Times poll today finds clinton and trump deadl k deadlocked at 42 with a four way race. Clinton talked to reporters and down played the tight contest. I always said it would be a tight race. I said it from the very beginning. Whether it was up, down, election day didnt matter. In reality it comes far sooner in top battlegrounds like here in North Carolina adding a sense of urgency at Clinton Campaign headquarters. She said her time at home this week allowed her to think about how she intends to wage her fight with trump. From now until november 8th everywhere i go i am going to talk about my ideas for our country. All three battleground states, all three places where she has lost some ground in recent weeks. She is try to ing how much to ak donald trump. Today was a bit of a rarity. She did not mention donald trump by name one time. She has to get positive attributes higher. Thank you. Donald trump released new information about his health and his economic plan. He is keeping details and other critical matters secret. Whats the latest on that . Donald trump is making moves designed to show voters he can be transparent. He is promising to several vo business times. One place he is not budging and that is his tax returns. He offered his prescription for improving Fiscal Health contracting his plan with Hillary Clintons proposals. The only thing she could offer is a welfare check, thats about it. Our plan will produce paychecks. Trump vowed to guarantee robust economic. New business will be created. It will be amazing to watch. Finds trump is an Excellent Health but on the heavy side, weighing in at 236 pounds. When im speaking in front of 15 to 20,000 people and im up there using a lot of motion i guess in its own way its a Pretty Healthy act. In releasing the letter he made a not so subtle that forced her to cancel some events saying we are pleased to disclose all of the test results that would show mr. Trump has the stamina to endure a president ial campaign. Trump continued in a talk radio interview. I can say you need tremendous stamina. Im in three different state ns one day. Trump is also vowing to be more transparent in his business dealings, promising to cut ties with his business. I will sever connections and have my children and executives run the company and wont discuss it with him. Donald trump jr. Suggested his father may opt against releasing his taxes. He has a 12,000 page tax return that is under audit. We dont want to create where every auditor is saying what if . What if . He blame add proclinton media. They let her slide on every lie, indiscrepancy, every dnc game trying to get sanders out of the game. If republicans were doing that they would be warming up the gas chamber right now. There were accusations that donald trump jr. Was making a holocaust joke but they say he was referring to capital punishment. Donald trump senior is showing him pulling ahead with clinton. He is slated to appear in miami storm tomorrow. Florida is critical indeed. Thank you. In the last hour i spoke with Trump Campaign jack kingston. We are joined by the Democratic National committee, donna brazil. Youre on leave as a political analyst. Just want to be up front on that. Lets talk about Hillary Clinton back on the campaign trail. He seem to have a lot more momentum at this point than she does. Look, he had four days to get his message out, four days to tell the American People his plan while secretary clinton clearly tried to get her strength back. You know when you get pneumonia and have allergies you lose your energy. She is back, strong. She is a warrior. Im gratified that she is back. I think unless she is ton play on the Playing Field donald trump gets away with pretty much everything. She is focused on talking about the American People, talking about how to help families that are struggling. Tonight she will be celebrating hispanic heritage month. Im confident we are not only going to succeed in doing what the campaign has been doing for the last couple of weeks and thats getting new voters excited and getting our message out to the American People. She was diagnosed with pneumonia last friday. She went to the 9 11 memorial ceremony. We saw her in the early collapse. She got into the vehicle. Was that an unforced error not to tell the American Public she was going to rest for the next few days . I heard this litigated. I saw Hillary Clinton. You could tell she was under the weather a little bit. She wanted to be there with her former constituents. It was very important to her. She did that. Some people would have rested but this is a woman who likes to get up and continue if you saw the coughing sprees she had in the days before this clearly she was not in tiptop shape. I just cleared my throat. When youre touching hands, reaching for people you get germs. She continues because she loves the American People. You think she should release more of her Health Records . Im not a doctor, wolf. I have heard she released more Health Records, tax records, emails. Donald trump continues to refuse to release his tax return. That one piece of paper that he gave, im like really . I think Hillary Clinton should focus on making sure we keep the Affordable Care act strong. She released statements from her doctor about her health but hasnt released her Health Records. I have heard all of the arguments. Her Campaign Speech for secretary clinton, they released a lot of information. I think we should digest what we have and continue to ask for information when donald trump isnt releasing anything. He released a letter from his doctor today as well. I saw the one liner, healthy, excelle excellent, great. I look forward to donald trump being in the next olympics, okay . All right. Lets talk about the polls coming up. Youre a political activist. You understand poll numbers. The florida cnn poll, Hillary Clinton 44 right now. Donald trump 47 in florida. Thats a significant shift from weeks ago where she seemed to have a pretty impressive advantage. What else happened . Why has he developed all of this momentum . If this poll but wolf, he has been out there for the last four days. He constantly he is out there taking up all of the time. Absolutely. The first lady is going out tomorrow. Sheer what you want to ask me. You want to ask me about polls. You know what i tell the folks in florida . Keep working. Dont focus on what the polls are today. Keep getting new voters registered. The deadline in florida is october 11th. Early voting starting on september 22nd. Keep working. Keep working, keep working. In terms of the ground game she has 34 offices and he has one. She is outspending him by a lot. Look at how close it is. It is not about spending money, its reaching people where they live and work and play and pray. At the end of the day that will be the difference on will whether or not Hillary Clinton wins by 2 points or 4 points or 6 points she is reaching voters. We are getting new registered voters. As we speak we have Keith Ellison and we are reechg out to millennials. We are making sure the campaign and party the poll in ohio that we just took trump 46 , clinton 41 . If he takes ohio and if he takes florida potentially he is on his way of becoming the next president of the united states. 18 states in the district of columb columbia, we only named florida. All we can have a combination of virginia and North Carolina, there are tasks, the one electoral votes. There are multiple tasks. There are a lot of different highways and biway ways. If you agree, if he carries florida and ohio some of these other states could potentially swing in his direction as well. I dont see it. North carolina, virginia for example. Donald trump has had a great four days. Maybe he has had a great two years. He is taking up a lot of oxygen. I am sitting here and im the dnc chair. Im talking about donald trump. Im not talking about the kind of material, kind of voter registration, the kind of campaign that allows us to get our message out to voters. Eight years ago and i still have a bad one but eight years ago as you well know, Lehman Brothers collapsed. More and more americans are working. 20 million americans with health insurance. So we are talking about donald trump every day while barack obama is trying to keep this economy moving and keep this country safe and secure. Hillary clinton will be the president that Will Champion the kind of change we barack obama has brought. Im sure she is thankful for your support. Well take a quick break. I want to get an update at whats going on at the dnc. We all know the hack that occurred by the russians. Much more right after this. Lots of vitamins a c, and, only 50 calories a serving.

Have you been told that the hack was definitely the russians that hacked the dnc . Immediately after the attack we hire add very good company, crowell strike. They worked on cyber security. They informed us that what they learned and what they found, it had traces and links to russian services. So yes, we know that. It has been the toughest thing i have ever dealt with. I dont consider myself a cyber expert but i consider myself to be aware. Watch what you put into the devices. Be careful what linked you turn on and for gods sake, do not take a thumb drive out of your computer and stick it into a computer where you dont know if they have the protection. We learned a lot. We are stronger. Our foundation is much better. Some of of this information that we are seeing right now is all of the information that they stole when they hacked in. Some information was leaked a couple of days ago. I assume youre bracing for me emails. We established a type of Security Task force who has worked, who is a cyber expert with the department of Homeland Security. We have the former chief Technology Official from the white house. We have a great team, our lawyer who is a federal official. I am confident we have a great team around us. We have a wonderful experience for people helping us experience not just our data but also of our other resources. Yesterday the chairman said republican political operatives, he backed away from the rnc, republican political operatives have been hacked as well. What do you know about that . I dont know anything but if they hacked into colin powell with his somystem, all of us some of us are not even aware there is spy ware on your system. I keep looking at your system. Every time you link up to a system thats not safe youre vulnerable. How has it effected you . You used to be pretty active on email. I have a good protection system. Youre never protected enough. It is something not just Political Parties should be concerned about but individuals as well as ordinary consumers. What about the entire election system going into november . There is some fear russians or someone else could fool around or play with election systems and alter the course of a free and Fair Election system. Secretary jay johnson has been in touch with all of the secretaries of state. Department of Homeland Security is very concerned about that. We are taking pru doesndent eff steps. This is not about partisan ship. When it comes to a Foreign Government hacking into our system putting out misinformation, im not a democrat, im an american. I think we should protect our and youre convinced it is the russians . I am convinced that it was russian intelligence services. Thanks very much. And congratulations, youre a grandpa. Thank you.

Hillary clinton back on the campaign trail for the First Time Since her bout with pneumonia. She took questions from reporters. Tonight she is back here in washington dchl w washington, d. C. Lets get to our political panel. How did she look and sound to you . Good. During her question and answer session with reporters . Good. I think she kind of dipped her toe in the water. I dont think she took a full dive. It was a shorter than usual speech. It was press availability but limited numbers of questions. I think they decided they have to get back where they were before this took trook. Everybody who doesnt like donald trump knows why they dont like donald trump. But she has to give them a reason to say this is why we do like her affirmative. This is how we have to get our voters enthusiastic. There are some that are really worrysome. Im talk about her numbers among Younger Voters that i think are, you know, really frightening for her and the enthusiasm numbers. She lost a lot of momentuome. 11 days away. She has a lot of work to do. Exactly. And what you said at the top of the segment, that she will be with president obama at a hispanic organization. I think donald trump cratered in august. He now put a floor under him. We are now in this tight race. We are seeing that she has an enthusiasm problem. In the snapshot of time, which is now, we have said that getting African Americans and hispanics out at the level barack obama was able to do. Right now thats not where we see enthusiasm. It will be a problem for her. She went on low key, did a lot of fundraising. I think it was a miscalculation. If you reference this donald trump was imploeding. He was offending a lot of people in the process. They made a calculation they could back away and of course they were spending millions of dollars in advertising at the same time, so amplifying on donald trump. He did get his acts together. He started using the teleprompter and then a bit of bad news about the clinton foundation. I think it was maybe a miscalculation but shell be getting a lot of stress in the last six weeks. You had a chance to interview Hillary Clinton. She spelled out some of the controversial comments. I want to play a little clip for you and then well discuss. I have said that donald trump has run a deplorable campaign. He has accepted support and been cheered on by the likes of david duke, the former grand wizard of the clku klux klan. Former kkk leader, david duke deplorab deplorable. She is not saying the campaign is deplorable. She said at one point half of his supports were deplorable. What was your impression . My impression was she realized some of her supporters were a bit upset with her and wished she would not have backed down because they actually believed there are many donald Trump Supporters who would consider their actions deplorable. So it is best not to attack some of those voters who are on the fence. It is much smarter to go after the campaign and candidate rather than the people who are voting. I think it was something that she realized. I dont think she will back away. She will double down on these comments. I dont think she has any choice. She made a mistake. She apologized for mathematics of it. I think she wants to continue to point out that, you know, there are races who support donald trump. I think she wants to continue to say that. She gave a speech about the altright. I think its i think she wants to continue talking about the altright, period. I dont think she has any choice. You know, its an issue. Its an issue she wants to raise and its something she believes can again, motivate voters because the Enthusiasm Gap that we were talking about right. Criminal justice and racism, she has a voter Enthusiasm Gap especially among African Americans and young people of color. They think there needs to be when it come to racial justice, that the system needs to be overhauled. Maybe she can be smarter about the way she says it but she needs to double down. Youll hear a lot more about specific people like donald trump or david duke or others not so much about his voters. And they want to use it as a motivator and get people out. Right. I think she is smart to do that. If she will be elected she has to recreate as much of that coalition that got him twice elected. It is a major challenge. She has a lot of work to do right now. Everybody standby. We have much more coming up, the questions that prompted ivanka trump to walk out of an int interview. Much more right after this. Scalpel. I have no idea what im doing. Im just a tv doctor. I never went to college. scream i dont do blood. But now, thanks to cigna, i can do more than just look the part. Is that a foot . We are the tv doctors of america.

Trump and his campaign say he wont release them because he is being audited by the irs even though no law prohibits it from showing the irs, showing the tax returns. Trump jr. Says it would detract from the candidates message. Listen to this. He has a 12,000 page tax return that is under audit. We dont want to create an where every auditor is saying what if . What if . We dont need a story with everyone questioning everything. Everyone will take a chance. What about this . What about this . It will change the dialogue. Did he just knowledge what may be the real reason . Yeah, i think he is the most truthful and honest about the reason taxes arent being released which is that taxes are complicated. They reveal a lot about you. Of course people would be asking questions about them just as they have done about other president ial candidates. Donald trump would be no different. It is why some president ial c candidates get out there early. By the time youre in the campaign it has already been asked and answered. And we should have 150 million individual auditors of these candidates basically. Of course thats the point, opening up to allow all of those questions, to allow every voter. Can i applaud david . Youre actually right. I hate to burst your bubble but it has been talking points for weeks now. They told me i dont think he should release tax rusheturns. They will find a story. I said isnt that what we are supposed to do . I said voters will look and see he has a low tax rate and they will understand what its like for someone who is in real estate to pay taxes . I said i think the voters need transparency. Its not just on one side. I dont think its the tax rate. I think he inoculated himself by saying that he is in real estate and real estate people get really good tax breaks. There is a lot of people that feel that his rate may be lower than or zero. Charitable giving . I think the issue might be the Charitable Giving and it might be foreign intensements and foreign entanglements. Those are important questions that i believe people need answered. So presumably the argument goes it must be something embarrassing in the tax returns preventing him from going ahead and doing what every president ial candidate has done to release the tax returns. Sure. Here is the problem i have with what donald trump jr. Said, that people would have questions and maybe misconstrue the content of tax returns because they would be very complex and very lengthy. They should offer an explanation to characterize his business dealings, his investments and why he kdid what he did and mad the decisions he made especially if you have a candidate basing his campaign off of his business career. Ivanka trump cut short an interview with cosmopolitan mog magazi magazine. When they asked in 2004 trump said pregnancy is an inconvenient thing for business. Can you talk a little about those comments and perhaps what has changed. Ivanka said i think you have a lot of negativity in these questions. She ended the interview rather abruptly. What was your reaction . My reaction was as effective as his Adult Children have been and they are. They are clearly, truly in love with their father and are good advocates for him. I also think they have been in a bit of a cocoon. They are high level executives of their company. I dont think they are that used to being scrutinized in many ways like this. I think that its an uncomfortable, unfamiliar position for them to be in but if ivanka trump is associating herself with the follow si saying she helped draft the policy i think she is fair game to be subject to this scrutiny we apply to other surrogates. Its no secret they are all closely involved advisers. Its not like they are living in some sort of bubble here. They should be able to answer these. They have never done politics before. This is the big difference. If you have been in a political family and its not like they havent been on the public stage but they havent been in a political family and they are not used to getting these kinds of questions thrown at them. I think she got thrown. She didnt know the quote and she couldnt defend it and she didnt want to talk about that. She wanted to talk about the Maternity Leave policy. At a church when the pastor interrupted donald trump as he was attacking Hillary Clinton. Let me play the clip for you. Ill tell you if the follow up is rough. Hillary failed on the economy just like she failed and foreign policy. Everything she touched didnt work out. Mr. Trump, i invited you here to thank us not to give us political speech. Thats good. Mr. Trump called his pastor a nervous mess. Hillary clinton this afternoon she bitterly criticized donald trump who is working so hard to deal with the crisis there, a nervous mess. What was your reaction when you saw this chain of events . You see what im going to do here . It is the same as Hillary Clinton saying basket of deplorables. You dont attack someone personally. She was doing what she was supposed to do. She said she invited him there for a specific reason, not to give a political speech. I think thats, you know, he got right back on message and didnt do it. You have to, you know, commend him for doing that. I need to have that woman on my show so she can deal with some of the surrogates that come on when they immediately deflect to the other candidates. I need her to be my interpreter to say i dont need you to talk about the other candidate. I think she was very effective. Do you think donald trump will apologize this pastor for calling her a nervous mess . No. But it is sort of typical donald trump. He fights back. If someone does something he doesnt like, we saw this with the khan family, he fights back. Thats what he has done his whole life. Thats what he did with the pastor. He felt clearly offended by it. In that moment he was so gracious. It took him like 24 hours to be offended. Guys give him his chance to speak. But he was smart what he did in that room. But i think it clearly graded on him. Thanks very much. Important note. Don will be back with much more tonight. Cnn tonight that airs of course at 10 00 p. M. Eastern. There is more breaking nud inne.

Other news, new tonight, cnn has learned that hundreds of u. S. Military personnel have now arrived in iraq. Mission to retake the city of mosul from isis forces. Barbara star is working the story. This military offensive, it could start fairly soon that what were learning. Reporter absolutely. U. S. Troops may be heavily involved in coming battles in both mosul and raqqah in syria in the coming ke ing days. Near mosul u. S. Bombs hit this isis or daesh chemical weapons plant fifty times. Into a chemical weapons production capability. The fight to take mosul iraqs second largest city could begin next month u. S. Defense officials tell cnn. Additional u. S. Special Operations Forces may be sent in to help advise iraqi units moving on mosul. U. S. Advisors are expected to be closer to mosuls front line. Facing more danger several defense officials tell cnn. At the iraqi air base hundreds of u. S. Military personnel are now on site providing support for iraqi units. Timing of the mosul assault depends on how ready iraqi units are. And if they dont get bogged down in coming days. The big remaining piece is the city of mosul, which is where isil has tried to establish its so called caliphate. That is the next administration is optimistic on what may be the biggest test so far for iraq. The iraqis with the strong support of this coalition that weve put together has taken back more than half the territory that isil once controlled. Getting fresh intelligence is job one. I am constantly reviewing our resources. Whether it be isr, strike platforms, tankers, people, to anticipate the operational environment for now there is less optimism on syria and the proposed u. S. Agreement with russia. In aleppo with a drop in air strikes, children are out playing but desperately needed humanitarian aid has not arrived.
