Still has a very short victory. hes still short of a victory, i should say. he has a very narrow path to 270. >> thats right, he still has other potential blue states that he has to turn red. hes got to turn new hampshire, or hes got to turn pennsylvania or the one electoral vote in maine. so on and so forth. republicans say it so many times, but republicans start at a disadvantage no matter who you are, based on the electoral map, and the population centers in each of these states. his path is ...

Look at donald trumps path. remember, we have four remaining toss up states, if i give them all, utah, arizona, north carolina and ohio all to donald trump, he is still very shy of 270 electoral votes. that is why he needs a florida to even get in the hunt. it still doesnt put him there. he still has to go to pennsylvania or new hampshire or nevada. but without the 29 votes it becomes almost impossible for him. >> so florida, must winn for donald trump. and now im going to ask about a state that...

>> well, the campaign is looking at background states. they see different numbers. theyre less concerned with the national numbers. >> i think a lot of campaigns are like that. very true. >> they think there are still good signs for trump. go ahead, david. >> so look at that. where is trump spending his time? hes in florida. hes in ohio. hes in north carolina. hes got to play defense. hes way behind in pennsylvania and has been for a long time. but hes got to play defense in north carolina, whic...

Very big win. its those numbers in nevada and new hampshire that has to worry the donald trump campaign. because if hes that far behind in nephnev at this stage, and youre right, willie, i hear it out on the campaign trail a lot. im going to go straight down to orlando after this to go to a trump rally. im sure hell bring up the health care premiums. its devastating for middle class families how much premiums have gone up. he can make traction on that, but he has to make such big numbers in plac...

Of early voting. the point being, if youre a guy like trump, youre frustrated with the facts the polls dont necessarily show where the actual votes are going as we enter this period of early and absentee ballot votinging. those are actual voters voting for votes that count. polls are done where you take 400 or 500 samples in a state and get the idea of margin of error, four or five, to get it. theyre important. they give you a snapshot whereof a race is, where its going, the insights to people. ...

The people are going to get trump in. its not going to go that way. >> you think the people will vote for trump, but trump wont be the president? >> uh-huh. >> pait might be a rigged election? >> definitely. >> fresh from scranton at 30 rock, that interview is fascinating. this is something i have been wondering about. donald trump is out there saying this is rigged against me. are trump voters are going to say im not voting? >> this is what trump doesnt want to happen. pennsylvania is not on ou...

Nasty women are smart. and nasty women vote. plus, the one man who may even be trumpier than trump himself. im the one whos got all of the heavy hitters supporting me. i mean i have got the cream of the crop. i have sarah palin. ive got chachi. get this, ive even got the best baldwin brother, steven baldwin. >> what will alec baldwin "snl" trump do next? i will ask an insider. the polls are definitely not in donald trumps favor, but does he still have a path to 270? cnns john king is at the ...

I talked to sean spicer for the rnc just before we went to air. sean, youve seen the results of the new cnn poll. trump trails by five points. he said today at a rally he thinks hes winning. do you believe hes winning? >> i think when you look at the battleground states whether its florida, iowa, ohio, where it matters, were winning. we have a path to 270 thats going to put him in the white house come november 8th. again, i think the other thing, anderson, you look at states where we can start t...

The campaign, this is the state that baffles them the most. >> right. >> because internal polls show them closer for some reason. and external polls are showing clinton up comfortably, but i saw a poll last night from an independent pollster that had it much closer. >> they have arizona, utah and georgia as locked in for trump. and yesterday his manager said yesterday there are hidden clues to depicting their path to 270. >> watch and see where we deploy our major assets, governor pence, and mr....

Florida, iowa, ohio, where it matters, were winning. we have a path to 270 thats going to put him in the white house come november 8th. again, i think the other thing, anderson, you look at states where we can start to see evidence of that. florida were up over the democrats in the early votes. not just the absentee ballots requested, then returned. same thing in iowa. and in places, excuse me, like iowa and north carolina -- in iowa, excuse me, in places like iowa and ohio where traditionally w...
