Fight. To burn down what we should be building up. Senate republicans should stand united. I call them legislative arsonists. Burning down the house good to have you with us tonight, folks. Thanks for watching. This is a followup to friday nights program, when i talked about the moral compass of america. And this is right at the heart of what the Republican Party is doing. When it comes to threatening to shutown the government, when it comes to defunding obamacare, when it comes to going after poor people on food stamps.

Reporter why is this the most important thing for congress to be focused on right now . It isnt. Its not. The

You know weve got to begin today with both candidates. They are back on the campaign trail and we are just 11 days from the next president ial debate. Some are saying it is going to be a thunder dome throw down, but we still dont know who exactly won the last one. And of course it depends on who you ask. For 90 minutes on issue after issue Hillary Clinton defended the terrible status quo. What we hear from my opponent is dangerously incoherent. Its unclear exactly what he is saying. Well, our team is back on the road this morning, and i need them more than ever to break it down. I want to start with nbcs Hallie Jackson in milwaukee, wisconsin. Hallie, help me. Donald trump is declaring victory but at the same time complaining that the system was rigged, his mike didnt work. Whats the deal . Reporter im, hes hed
