Closely to in these final days. they believe if he does that, and he doesnt say anything outrageous, he doesnt make anyone worry, hell be able to get more republicans into the tent. hes not enjoying the same amount of republican support like his predecessors did, people like mitt romney and john mccain. he has to get past 92% so he has a chance to stay in the general. were hearing about stops in ohio, new hampshire. these are battleground states donald trump absolutely needs to win. >> kristen w...

Think the obama effect, as its called, will mean? >> well, a couple things. he clearly enjoys being on the trail and something he has been good at in the past and mostly good at it on behalf of himself. he does not have a great record when hes out there stumping for other folks as weve seen during his its different in a presidential year, but his popularity numbers are up and theyre good. partly good because theyre good in comparison to the damaged goods on both sides of this race and thats one ...

Comments even before this candidacy. the reality, this has been quietly shadowing clinton. theres a degree of sexism that finds its way into other channels that people sort of criticize her. a lot of what donald trump said around the notion that, oh, shes feeble, she stumbles, she needs rest and all of this sort of stuff is sort of i think thinly disguised form of sexism. it probably wont end after this election. although this would be a burden that if hillary clinton should win, shell have to c...

Foundation for any of this or that really didnt work at all. ? >> i dont think you could say it worked at all. greg abbott beat wendy davis by about the margin his predeces r predecessors had beat their democratic proponents. the after-effect wasnt great. if you look at this election, you see a big anti-trump voter, sort of reluctant republican support for trump and a fairly normal democratic support for clinton, you might get a turn there. the democrats might be able to turn that into a list th...

Do things about hillary clinton that hillary clinton cant really say about herself. >> right, look, thats true for any candidate to have somebody who is -- who can stand up and say they know you and vouch for you is important. somebody with the kind of approval ratings that michelle obama has, you cant beat it, somebody who can reach the specific areas that they need, particularly in a place like north carolina, millennials, african-american voters and women so thats kind of a demographic hat tr...

I do think its something theyre worried will last into a potential clinton administration. whether its because theyre sewing division within their own party because of the things they said about progressives in the primary or whether its republicans who might be looking to follow up on this once we get clear p clear of this election season. >> lets talk about secretary powell. weve seen allegedly e-mails from him. he did not dispute whether they were inaccurate descriptions of hillary clinton. s...

>> i think we have a very good chance of winning. >> fascinating insight into who she is and her life. donald trump has run such an unconventional campaign. does she have a conventional campaign manager role? >> no. and would you expect anything different? she doesnt. she doesnt do a lot of the things that lets say robby mook does on the democratic side or her predecessors on the republican side have done. she is much more focused. she is focused on strategy and polling, of course. thats her exp...

Room talk. you sort of alluded to that as well, is that what it is to you, just locker room talk? >> yes, its kind of two teenage boys. actually, they should behave better, right? correct. and sometimes i said i have two boys at home, i have my young son and i have my husband. >> melania trump says her husband has apologized for his crass remarks and she has forgiven him. the only thing better than touting your own credentials have having a sitting president do it for you. president obama has ...
