Antisemant antisemantic. Fiery is an under statement. Here is some of what he said. Rigged system, folks. Remember, i used to say it. Im the one that brought that word up. Now everybody is using it. Bernie sanders is rightfully using it. Because honestly, what they did with him is not good. Wake up. I turn on the television, donald trump loves Saddam Hussein. He loves hussein. And i was just asked a question by the cincinnati inquirer. Mr. Trump, is it true you love Saddam Hussein, essentially like that. I said, that is not what i said. That is not what i said. That is the narrative that goes around iechl put a press release out and now the people that saw it say it was great but theyre liars. These are bad people. These are bad people. And what i did say, and what i did say is that he was good at one thing. He was really good at killing terrorists. He didnt wait around. So one of my guys, married to a jewish woman, this is a very fine person. He put out a tweet talking about crooked Hillary Clinton and on the tweet was a star. A star. Like, a star. And i said oh, because when i looked at it, i didnt think anything. All of a sudden, it turned out to be in the minds of the press only, because it could have been a sheriffs star. A regular star, my boy comes home from school, he drew stars all over the place. I never said that is the star of david, baron. Dont it is a star have you seen it . It is a star the democrats there, was a mosquito, i dont want mosquitos around me. I dont like mosquitos i dont like those mosquitos, i never did. Okay, speaking of mosquitos, hello, hillary, how are you doing . That was donald trump just moments ago. Cnn sarah murray was there. She joins us from cincinnati. It is safe to say this was not the teleprompter donald trump. I think that is fair to say, john berman. This was pretty classic, old school donald trump. He was going after the media and he was reviving controversies that seemed to have mostly been put to bed. You saw him there talking about the tweet that had this star, six pointed star. It had Hillary Clinton and piles of cash. It evoked antisemantic and he got criticism on twitter. The campaign deleted it. Covered with something else. The social media director put out a statement saying i never meant to offend anyone. They didnt go so far as to apologize but that was a couple of days ago and donald trump brought it all back. In addition to reviving that comment about Saddam Hussein. He started on message. He started talking about rob port man in a tough reelection time. He ended on a tangents. He did talk about james comey, the fbi and the emails. That is what a lot of republicans want him to focus on almost exclusively at this point. Tomorrow, donald trump heads to capitol hill. He will meet with members of congress, he will try to reassure members of congress, do you think tonights event, tonights speech will be reassuring on capitol hill . Well, it is important to note that when it comes to prosecuting the case against Hillary Clinton, donald trump does that as engetergetica wine. He says she managed to get away with it. Youll hear more on that as he goes to talk to republicans on the hill. And he tends to do better on the closed door meetings with republicans when she ask him questions and talk about the fundamentals of the campaign, about the strategy going into the general election. But the donald trump you get on the stump, on the campaign trail on nights like this where he is fired up. Especially against the press is a totally different thing compared to what youll see behind closed doors in washington. He is energized. That is to be sure. Donald trump going to capitol hill. Fbi director james comey also will be there. He will be in congress, going to answer questions about his recommendation against criminal charges for Hillary Clinton. A recommendation that Loretta Lynch accepted. As you saw again tonight, director comey is facing heat from donald trump and republicans accusing him of a double standard charging others under similar circumstances but not charging her. This is an allegation that comey tried to nip in the bud yesterday. All of the cases prosecuted involved some combination of clearly intentional and willful miss handling of confidential information or vast quantities of information, exposed to support an inference of misconduct or disloyalty to the United States or efforts to obstruct justice. They disagree and now say they want to know more even though when chairmans case, he praised director comey and said he would probably accept the up coming decision. His finger is on the pulse of this. Nothing happens without him and i think he is going to be the definitive person to make a determination or a recommendation. All right. That was then. Right now, lets turn to m, comt press charges against anyone else connected to this. What can you tell us about todays meeting . This really does not come as much of a surprise as Loretta Lynch previously announced she would accept the recommendation from the fbi no matter what it was. And with comey saying he didnt think a credible case could be made against clinton, she clearly agreed. She met this afternoon with cuomo and investigators who investigated the matter for a year and said no charges will be brought against, quote, any individuals within the scope of the investigation. Now, in the wake of bill clintons meeting with clinch on the tarmac, many republicans dont think the attorney general is impartial and she will be on capitol hill next week, john, testifying and answering questions from republicans. What can we expect to hear from director comey when he appeared before chaffetz committee. He will get a grilling and many of the republicans simply believe that clinton broke the law and should be prosecuted. This there will be multiple rounds of questioning from members from both sides of the aisle and House Republicans really say that this is just a start of a political Pressure Campaign that is just going to intensify into november. And earlier today, manu, speaker ryan spoke about the fbi decision, spoke about what Actions Congress might take against Hillary Clinton. What was he saying . Speaker ryan also suggested that he believed that Hillary Clinton got preferential treatment and when i asked him today if he thought congress should push for a special prosecutor, he actually did not rule that out. He said that all options are on the table. Ryan has been very clear that clinton should not get access to the countrys secrets during the campaign. Listen to what he had to say. I was on the ticket in 2012. After the convention, you get the full, deep classified information as part of transition, as part of being a nominee. I think the dni, clapper, should deny Hillary Clinton access to classified information during this Campaign Given how she so recklessly handled classified information. Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee privately met this morning and im told they discussed whether there is any legislative recourse to deny clinton access to intelligence. Watch out for that, john, interestingly, i asked Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell if donald trump should be briefed and he would not answer and instead he called on clinton to release a transcripts of her fbi interviews, john. 2016, manu raju. Clinton supporters. Michael and quinn. New york times patrick healy, Trump Supporters joseph borelli. Caught in in all. Were talking about Donald Trumps speech. Not the teleprompter trump which received praise. Do you think this will be of concern for people who liked donald trump painting within the lines . No. This is donald trump taking control of the narrative by the Hillary Clinton campaign who takes any small incident, blows it up. Manufacturers outrage and tries to create controversy where none exists. It was important to set it right. Hillary clinton said x, y and z about me. He did focus on the issues, on the fbi investigation and that is important, too. That is probably most important but it was important to give the rebuttals. Rebuttals to the star of david or the tweet controversy which no one was really bringing up today, kaylee. Today was focused on the fbi, focused on james comey, on the emails which had no republicans thinking is a officfertile issu. Unprovoked in cincinnati today. We have unbelievably dishonest media. Think of that. So you have the star, which is fine. I should say, you shouldnt have taken it down. They took the star down. I said too, bad. You should have left it up. I would rather defended it and say that is not a star of david. That is just a star. Were you surprised, councilman to see donald trump again tonight unprovoked when so much focus elsewhere is on Hillary Clinton and the emails bring up this controversy again . I think you reach a point where youre so frustrated with some of the manufacturered anger coming from things like the star of david to his trip to scotland. One of the things he spoke about is the trip to scotland and they used golf videos to create this lie that he was in scotland solely to play golf. You reach a critical point where you get frustrated and see this take, a larger precedent in the media over things that Hillary Clinton is doing like the fbi investigation, et cetera, et cetera. My point. It wasnt taking today, at least, a larger role in the media. Today it has been all about the fbi. Been all about the emails, it has been all about the hearings that will take place in congress tomorrow. Patrick healy, you were with donald trump today, with you. He was bringing up the star of david. Shortly before his rally we sat down at his office and he so clearly just was galling him. It was galling him, this idea that he had been pushing and trafficking and antiacceptableati antiacceptableatiantiacceptas. I saw a star, he sort of understood his staff took it down because of the sensitivities and sensibilities. He wanted to fight. The thing that was striking, john, as you know, republicans dream of a kind of weak like this where the fbi director is getting up there, Barack Obamas fbi director and giving it to bill clinton or giving it to Hillary Clinton and serving up just these softballs and donald trump instead is really just kind of still seething over a tweet that nobody really even wants to talk about. You think that he didnt want to talk about anymore and he is not pounding on the judgment and on the competency and on the instinct questions that are so fertile he could be raising. It baffles the mind why he would go back to this unfortunate, at best, unfortunate incident. It reminds americans that he is kind of irrational. And doesnt really have a sound sense of judgment and that makes you question, in my opinion, his stability and character as it relates to being president of the United States buttoned that, his Staff Members said they picked it off of an antihillary website which in fact, that exact imagery, the star of david with words like corrupt in it on top of a pile of money has been well documented as an image used on antisemantic websites. You can not assail the qualifications of the antidefamation league, a totally independent group. Lets just hold on a minute. That is ridiculous. This is a tweet that donald trump now says he wishes were not taken down. But the issue, because i dont think well ever get the councilman or Christine Quinn to agree on whether this is ant antisemantic or not. It wouldnt be discussed unless donald trump did what was politically unthinkable and that is bring it up himself. On a day that Hillary Clinton, her email scandal, the fact that the fbi director has to go in front of the congress hearings. These are all things like patrick said. We talked about this earlier, these would be death blows. Instead, donald trump is obsessing over a mistake that his campaign made four days ago, he is still talking about that. He wasted time when all of the networks are covering him, rehashing that issue. Not only did he waste time on that bringing it back up so now were talking about this instead of going after Hillary Clinton. He brought up the Scotland Golf thing again, he is bringing up all of these other, grudging up stuff. He wasted so much precious time going on and on about himself and other controversies and criticizing cnn and the media instead of talk being this country, going after Hillary Clinton, her record, her problems, instead of hammering that message home. He did that. He did that for about three minutes and then he went off on these crazy tangents again. Everyone expects him to be a perfectly polished politician. He is a real person. He is going to address these acquisitions unlike the secretary of state who trieds to disparage a business effort as opposed to addressing all of the various myriad of contradictions that james comey pointed out. He takes the issues head on like any real person will do. Well get you into this decision, kaylee is right. She has not spoken out publicly about the emails, about what the fbi director said about the investigation at this point. She hasnt talked yesterday, she hasnt spoken today. Should she . I dont know if she will but the investigation is over. Loretta lynch said this today. This investigation is over. What is going to happen is that the republicans unsatisfied with this finding who have pinned the white house aspirations on Hillary Clinton being indicted. They will bring james comey down to congress, a man who has been lauded by people on both the right and the left but all of a sudden now, these findings are somehow flawed. But but the point is that i dont know if she would address them. Theyre shouting out questions. Reporters are always shouting out questions. In comments she made yesterday in a release from yesterday, but the fact of the matter is this is going to continue to get dredged up and it is not about finding systemic problems and changes that can be made. It is about prosecuting her. All right guys, standby. The investigation may be over. The discussion is not over. James comey will be on capitol hill. There is much more to discuss on the hearings. Later, Hillary Clinton takes dead aim on how donald trump ran the casinos into the ground. Da, dave stops working, but his aleve doesnt. Because aleve can last 4 hours longer than tylenol 8 hour.

Just before donald trump began speaking in cincinnati tonight, word came down that attorney general Loretta Lynch would not pursue charges against Hillary Clinton or anyone connected to her. Trump reacted. Watch. This just happened, you know, with the attorney general of the United States saying no problem. No problem. No problem. You know . I wrote out a couple of things about hillary, crooked, so crooked. She made so many false statements. Is she going to be brought before congress or something . Is something going to happen . Is something going to happen . Because it is a disgrace. Back now with our panel. Patrick healy, i want to start with you. The democrats to your right suggest the investigation is over. The investigation is completely over. This is not over. Not when james comey is going to capitol hill tomorrow to answer questions to one committee. The attorney general will appear before another committee. Not when the house will consider legislation to bar classified information from going to the secretary of state while she is running for president. This is kind of a big deal with the fbi director going to capitol hill. This is really the beginning of something. The end of the investigation is the beginning of a difficult political period for Hillary Clinton. The question is, are the republicans on the hill who
