Since his last donation in 2008. This is a man whos given away tens of millions of dollars to charitable causes. My opponent slanders you as deplorable. I call you hardworking american patriots. Hello, everyone, im john berman. Im kate bolduan. Eight weeks to election day. This morning, one candidate complains in clyde, iowa while the other recovers in chappaqua, new york. Donald trump taking full advantage of Hillary Clintons unscheduled break from the campaign trail and he is pounding the pavement, hitting battleground states as hard as he can while he has the field basically to himself at the moment. Hell be holding a rally in iowa a short time from now. Well be watching closely for that. While Hillary Clinton is still home resting under Doctors Orders due to pneumonia. The campaign only admitting the illness after this video surfaced of clinton apparently unable to walk on sunday. Donald trump and his team of course think it is a big deal. Theyre happy to talk about it. Theyre also happy to talk about Hillary Clintons description of some Trump Supporters as a basket of deplorables. That is fair game in trumps world. Not fair game, his tax returns or records of his Charitable Giving. So the one exemption we know he is claiming is himself when it companies to financial transparency. More on that in a moment. First, lets get to cnns jason carol following donald trump in iowa where the smart money says we will hear the word deplorable, jason. Very smart money. Even before i walked in here, john, i ran into a woman, she was wearing a tshirt that said, i love deplorables. This is something that has really struck a nerve with many Trump Supporters who were out here in iowa. So expect donald trump to hammer home on this issue today, just like he did last night. You know, when Hillary Clinton made this comment what she was basically referring to are what she called a number of people who she says have racist or homophobic leanings who support donald trump, people like david duke, former head of the kkk. Just a little earlier this morning, mike pence was asked about this very same issue and whether or not he thought david duke was deplorable. He said he wasnt into name calling. Listen ton how he responded to the question. Donald trump and i have denounced david duke repeatedly. We have said that we do not want his support and we do not want his support of the people who think like him. Yesterday, inwas i was asked a question about that. I repeated that again. And the simple fact is that im not in the name calling business. My colleagues in the house know that i believe the civility is essential in a vibrant democracy. Its just never been my practice. Im also not going to validate the language that Hillary Clinton used to describe the american people. Well, trumps critics certainly will not be satisfied with that particular response. Despite all the name calling going on back and forth, john, a number of voters we talk to, some of those out here, say theyre hoping to hear more about issues. Once again, were going to hear about the deplorables. Later on tonight, we are expected to hear donald trump address a specific issue. That has to deal with child care and child Care Affordability. Hes going to be unveiling his child Care Affordability plan at another rally later on tonight. His daughter ivanka will be there with him apparently she helped him craft some of this proposal. To rewrite the tax code to allow working parents to deduct from their income taxes child care expenses for up to four children. That will come later on. But for here, for right now, expect to hear a lot more criticism about Hillary Clinton making that deplorable comment when he takes the stage here just outside of des moines. John. We will be watching. Jason carroll for us, thank you so much. Meanwhile, new questions about trump and the foundation that bears his name. How does it work . How much money does he have . How much is it Donald Trumps money . How much has there been really . Answers to this could be in his taxes if he released them. So many questions, so little time. Cnn Senior Investigative correspondent drew given has been digging into all of these questions. Youve been digging into his charity and details about his giving for months now. Ever since he started with his vets charity thing back in the iowa primary days. Its confusing because were talking about Donald Trumps personal donations which are somewhere buried in his hidden tax records and his donald j. Trump foundation which is very public. You have to file these 990 reports with the irs to keep the status. Thats where we get these records from, the foundation. We learned he hasnt given any money to his own foundation, the one that bears his napme, since 2008. Before that, he did give a significant amount. So where does the rest of the money come from . Well, its not a lot. This foundation is pretty smart. Just over 1 million in its latest tax returns. Trump has gotten individual donations from nbc. The company gave him 500,000 in 2012. Comedy central donated 400,000. World wrestling entertainment gave his foundation 1 million. All entities he was having business dealings with. None of his own money to his own foundation in 2008. That is some information there. What about where his foundation is going . Its very broad. The foundation doesnt seem to have a central cause. Hes given money to the Clinton Foundation for instance. Its been widely reported. 100,000 to Citizens United foundation, the conservative political group, whose president has just joined Trumps Campaign. For two years, he gave to the Palm Beach Police foundation. The group holds its policemen balls at trump resort every winter. Get this, trumps mor alargo resort charges. Its like 500,000 over two different balls. So on the one hand hes giving to this group. On the other hand, hes charging them for use of the ballroom. Put it into perspective, the foundation broadly. How does the trump charity, how does the foundation compare to other charities . Lets compare it to the Clinton Foundation. The Clinton Foundation is huge. In 2014, had 1. 3 million in the bank. They dont do a lot. Theres not a lot of activity. Trump Foundation Hires a lot of people. They have projects. The Trump Foundation doesnt have a single employee. Theyre very, very small. Compared to the actual Clinton Foundation. Now, the Trump Campaign did get back to us last night saying all the questions about the foundation are inaccurate. Heres a statement. Ated tens of millions of dollars to charts both through his foundation and otherwise. In addition, friends plaintiff trump have generously donated to his foundation. The statement points out trump doesnt receive compensation and he makes regular personal contributions to charities and causes of his choosing outside the foundation it heres the problem, we cant find any records of it. We just dont take his word for it. We cant at this point in his president ial election. Were not seeing signs of it. Nord ro records of it and n returns to check it. We want you to join our panel. Also with us, senior cnn washington correspondent jeff zeleny. Cnn political analyst kristin powers. Cnn senior political reporter nia mallika henderson. I want to start with you because on this issue of charity, Trumps Campaign manager was asked this morning on cnn will trump release exactly how much he himself has given to charity and Kellyanne Conways response was i doubt it. Im not sure thats transparen e transparency. Its definitely not transparency. I have to ask, like, how is this an acceptable answer . Why is he allowed to go out and talk about how charitable he is . But he doesnt have any obligation to prove what hes saying. He needs to release this information. We need to see what his Charitable Giving has been over the years because hes made a lot of claims about it and people have a right to know, to have some sort of verification this has happened. When you talk about the kind of the umbrella theme of transparency here, nia, this is exactly what the Clinton Campaign points to as a double standard. Thats right. Theyre pointing to the double standard. Not only looking at the press saying the press hasnt covered this well, but also that donald trump gets away with saying things that are either not provable or not accurate and doesnt really pay a price for them. It looks like he is able to do that. It hasnt damaged him in the polls. If you talk about the tax returns and him not releasing those, at this point, its hard to see if he has any incentive in doing those. We know Hillary Clinton has given to charity because shes released her tax returns. Theyve given about 10 of their income to charity, and we dont know that from donald trump about his charities. We would know from the tax returns. Thats something hae hasnt been willing to do. It certainly i think takings it away from the sharpness, the effectiveness of his argument. He cant continue to effectively tag Hillary Clinton. He for instance, hillarys hiding meme that they kept blasting out to supporters and emails. He himself hasnt been transparent in any number of things. The Trump Campaign says hes under audit which is why he cant release his taxes. Dont have exact proof. Just taking trump at his word for that. That only covers back to 2008. Have they given information why theyre not relosing earlier tax returns . No, they havent. He can give a list of the charities personally if he wants to. He can go through his own records, item ooiz. We could call those charities and say, hey, did you get this check from donald trump . Yes, no, he gave us that much money. Theres any number of ways he can release the information without having to release his tax returns. The fact is, john if somebody gave me 1 million, i would tell you. This guy gave me 1 million. Im happy for it, thank you. Donald trump for instance. We dont have it. Whats plaguing Hillary Clinton still is the fact that the whole issue related to the pneumonia and how the type line and how it all was revealed or seemed to be kind of forced for the campaign to reveal. Last night, Hillary Clinton called in, spoke to anderson cooper, when asked why she didnt reveal it sooner, she said she didnt think it was a big deal. Is that the standard . What are you hearing from team clinton . Is that the standard theyre comfortable with . They were comfortable with it at the time. The people arent her were comfortable at the time. That lies the problem. I talk to a lot of people who were very supportive of clinton. Theyre so frustrated by yet another sort of selfinflicted wound here. And one of the consistent things im hearing from is that, you know, theyre really questioning who is directly around her saying, yes, maam, thats a fine idea to not talk about this. Should she have some new blood around her. That interview last night, shes senior senator from new york. He had pneumonia as well. Different people. Shes running for president of the United States. Its a different moment in her life. You know, she talks about how much information we have about her past life. We do have a lot of information about her tax returns. Absolutely true. The transparency argument is not equal here at all. Shes given a ton more stuff. The burden on her with the Health Information is serious. Shes 68 years old. She has a Health History here. We simply dont know enough information. Im told that she is going to release some more things in the coming days here. It will not be on dr. Oz like donald trump is going on dr. Oz. But it is still going to hang over her somewhat. I want to come back to dr. Oz in one second. K christine powers, the dnc chair said the democrats need some kind of contingency plan or the politico reported he needed some kind of contin gin se plan in case something happened to Hillary Clinton. You talked to the dnc. What can you tell us . I talked to don about an hour ago, he does say he believes they need to have a contingency plan. He said he didnt say, which was reported in politico, was they need to identify a successor. So thats a distinction he would make. He does feel it would make sense they would have sort of a contingency plan. Said to me in an email, i asked if you feel you need to have a contingency plan, and she said we support our nominee. The dnc has rules in terms how to deal with the situation if they did need to select a nominee. Its possible don fowler feels it needs to be discussed in more detail. But it looks like the dnc, at least the official position is, they dont feel they need to do that. Nia, heres your choose your own adventure. You can either talk about dr. Oz and the fact donald trump is revealing his physical results its great for tv but i dont know if its great for transparency purposes. Or how concerned Hillary Clinton is just simply that shes still off the trail and hes pounding the pavement, regardless of what hes doing, its a stop on dr. Oz, but the fact hes on the trail, and shes not. I think ideally if youre Hillary Clinton, you want to be out there. Listen, she pushed through pneumonia to get out there, to fund raise and be at different events. But the Campaign Never stops. Youre going to have a president obama out in pennsylvania. Michelle obama will be in virginia on friday. Hillary Clinton Campaign has released ads targeting black millennials in florida and north carolina. The campaign unfortunately in some ways for many of us who have to, you know, sit through commercials for instance, the Campaign Never really goes away. Sure, she wants to be out there. She will be out there at least addressing these groups on friday. Shell be addressing a group of black women. A conference of black women on friday. On thursday, i believe, shell theres a group of latino lawmakers. At some point, shell get out there. You want to ideally be out there so you can get the local press and local newspapers and local news broadcasts at 5 00 and 7 00. Soon enough, she will be out there. In the meantime, shes got these people out there in her stead. You think shes itching to get back out there. She was supposed to be in los angeles at two fundraisers. Her only battleground stop of the whole week was supposed to be in nevada tomorrow. So this isnt disrupting her schedule all that much. Its much more of a political issue than it is i think an on the ground issue right now. Very close, im sure she would want to be there. And bill clinton is going tomorrow. Jeff zeleny, drew griffin, nia Mallika Pierson and christen power, thank you very much. Next, the Clinton Campaign is trying to turn those attacks right back around on him. Will it work . Plus, just a short time from now, president obama, he goes on the trail for Hillary Clinton alone. Headed to philadelphia. What will he talk about . Will he talk about Hillary Clintons health . I bet he talks about donald trump. Well hear what he has to say about that. Hey nikki what are you doing here . You tell me, stephen. What . Im snapping. Youve been streaming my videos all morning.
