Stolen e-mails from john podesta that hasnt been. wikileaks has, quote, poisoned hillarys relationship with the left and some groups will oppose clinton policy proposals. what kind of long-term damage do you see potentially from the release of the e-mails? >> i dont see any long-term damage. once the election is over, once hillary clinton is president elect and president of the united states actions will speak a lot louder than words. on tpp who cares what was in the wikileaks? who cares? action...

Wake up and see arizona has gone blue, helped elect hillary clinton president, defeated joe arpaio and elected a democrat in his place, i think it will be a real sign that arizona has fundamentally changed and that has changed and that will send shock waves throughout the nation. >> thank you very much for your time, andre. i appreciate it. thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. >> time for "born in the usa" highlighting american business success stories. as time runs out for people to re...

Barack obama as mr. trump elect that matters. its not his staff. its john mccain. its the loser of the election who validates and legitimizes the result for the winner. and the failure to do that is a fundamental attack on institutions of profound importance to this country, and here is the test for republicans who have been morally equivalent on this candidacy, who have not shown the reckwt political courage that the time demands. >> like who? >> across the board, but youan start with paul ryan...

As the highest ranking republican in the country, there is a lot of pressure on him to answer for trump, explain trump. he tried not to. hes really pushed back. he will be making his own case for those who are nervous about which way to vote. of the idea differences between what a hillary clinton administration would be and whether they are in congress or potentially in the white house. paul ryan is in a lane of his own, trying to bring republicans with him. to talk about the issues that are the...
