The chair of the federal election admission. chair, thank you for being with us. you wrote a letter to the president that said our democracy depends on the election process. your voter fraud claims undermine that. you have not provided any proof of these allegations. there comes a time when you need to lay your cards on the table or fold. why did you write this to the president? >> hi, john. facts matter. and people of america need to be able to believe what their leaders tell them. it is damagi...

And her campaign credit. they are making inroads, from a ground-up perspective. and you have not seen that from other campaigns to struggle with african-american voters in south carolina. >> somebody, like, for example, beto orourke. about a year ago was the subject of myriad profiles of how he was going to do. he has reset his campaign. he was on with chuck todd over the weekend. actually here in the studio on "meet the press". i want to play a little bit of what he had to say about his strateg...

Found here. >> and when you start asking and they dont tell you the full story. and now we know what happened with the campaigns, their efforts to really disrupt the election process, theyre spending tens of millions of dollars already. for those that can restrict or american voters, tell us about it. >> donald trumps campaign is the most biggest spender on facebook adds, and the reason why is because facebook ads work. you can target people on many other platforms. so you can target them on int...

To cross the border and intervene, youre really looking at the prospect of another tiananmen square, blood shed. many of those demonstrators will martyr themselves. it will not be a pretty sight. it will set back the course of democracy in hong kong, and the possibility of even a reunification between taiwan and the mainland. certainly the pro-independent forces will say, see, we cannot trust beijing to give us autonomy. thats why we need to have independence. and, of course, you know, the chine...

Protesters. >> certainly if the chinese were to cross the border and intervene, youre really looking at the prospect of another tiananmen square, blood shed. many of those demonstrators will martyr themselves. it will not be a pretty sight. it will set back the course of democracy in hong kong, and the possibility of even a reunification between taiwan and the mainland. certainly the pro-independent forces will say, see, we cannot trust beijing to give us autonomy. thats why we need to have inde...

Im glad you raise this point. heres the bottom line. we know from polls in 2016 that a lot of people who said theyre not going to vote for donald trump actually did because i think they were embarrassed and ashamed to actually say that to a pollster. but looking forward we actually have to have a real conversation about this. i think democratic candidates have to go out and make the case to voters in the way weve seen this past week. >> passion and compassion. one sound bite from one democratic ...

Supreme court in terms of whether or not it is legal? >> it seems likely. if california is going to do this, there are 49 other states that may try to do something like this. it creates an immediate controversy and a juicy issue of federalism because you had state laws implicating the entire system and national election process. this may be the kind of case that finds itself before the supreme court very quickly. >> is so i want to talk about the manhattan d.a. department hush money. can you tak...
