nonot not nbc has not dug in the allegations she s brought. we are still working on all of that. for the clinton s campaign, this is the end of the last shred of this and there is always be been i would not call it a veneer but a real attempt for the family to interact and it is a process that we are all agree to be apart of and be polite to each other. that s gone with this. the clinton campaign is saying that this is all just a scorch earth and a policy on the part of the trump campaign. brian fallon talked to andrea mitchell about it today. i think it will be his loss, that s where we have seen in the first two debates certainly. i they thatink that s what y going to hear. we are ready for this and this
the sort of democratic dialogues. reporter: clinton is trying to make sure that doesn t happen, rallying supporters today in colorado. his campaign said they re going to use a scorched earth strategy for the remaining four weeks of this race. now, that just shows how desperate they are. they s all they have left. pure negativity. pessimism. and we re not going to let donald trump get away with it, are we? reporter: ahead of her trip, the clinton campaign release thing spanish ad. we re going to have a deportation force. reporter: in florida today, a federal judge granted an extension of the state s voter registration deadline due to the effects of hurricane matthew.

reply. he is going to scorch earth. it would be entertaining campaign. you mean the rumble in the jungle. yes, i remember. what did i say? you had the right fight. i m just telling you what muhammed ali. rumble in the jungle. that s what muhammed ali called it. i m filling in facts to give you background. this is what i think. yes, it would be interesting if it were completely intrarepublican fight. very large constituency out there and you see it in the#z polls. independents and democrats who would never vote for donald trump. perhaps he will be so persuasive he will swing that if he doesn t, this will be also interesting election day than you would imagine. i think it would make the gold water result ofg look like a republican victory. if there is more terrorism, that helps trump in the sense that people get angrier as i said in the talking points memo at thev6 top. more fearful. he plays in to that.
