CNNW New Day September 18, 2015

Not hes an arab. He is not no. No . No, maam. No, maam. Reporter trumps camp the billionaire did not hear the question, saying the media want to make this an issue about obama, its about him waging a war on christianity. Still, democrats quick to pounce. Hillary clinton at a Substance Abuse forum in New Hampshire earlier in the day tweeted not denouncing false statements about the president and hateful rhetoric about muslims is disturbing and wrong. Cut it out. This is jeb bush ratcheting up a strategy to keep his debate momentum going on the campaign trail joking at a rally in las vegas. I hope i will be so brilliant and so eloquent and so high energy. Reporter and calling out trumps gaps in Foreign Policy knowledge. Im not going to get my Foreign Policy based on watching the shows or say dont worry about it, ill figure it out later. You need a president with a steady hand because this is a dangerous world. Reporter and the chair of the Democratic National committee calling trumps comments at the rally horrendous but unsurprising. What makes this latest trump story more controversial is the history in 2011, donald trump publicly challenged president obamas citizenship and asked for him to release his birth certificate which he later did. We do remember that. Well be talking aboutouse repu to force several votes aimed at Defunding Planned Parenthood. Some conservative lawmakers threatening a Government Shutdown at the end of the month. What does Hillary Clinton have to say . Cnn National Correspondent Suzanne Malveaux is on the campaign trail with clinton in manchester, New Hampshire. Reporter she has a lot to say about this. Theyre both eager to take on this issue, in the midst of the threeday swing in New Hampshire. This is where her main opponent, Bernie Sanders is ahead in four polls, one of them 23 points ahead of her with the independents and new voters. This is an issue she feels will resonate with the female voters, with the new voters, the young voters, moderates and independents, all of those people she needs. Yes, she is taking it on. She knows shes distinct from the gop candidates who are supporting Defunding Planned Parenthood as well as some of the republicans in congress who are call to shut down the government over it. She talked to my colleague, wolf blitzer and she was very clear for her support of this organization. We ought to be very clear that planned parenthood has served to provide health care, Necessary Health care for millions of women. And i think that it deserves not only our support, but the continuing funding from the federal government. Reporter so she is going to be talking about this throughout the day. Shes also traveling to concord, later today to talk about making College Affordable again. Trying to hit those young voters, those new voters an those moderates, those independents she goes on to travel to maine to rally the troops. Michaela . Suzanne, thank you so much. Hillary clinton had a whole lot more to say about republicans in her exclusive interview with wolf blitzer taking on her gop rivals and defending her career as secretary of state. You certainly did take a lot of fire from the republicans at the cnn debate last night. I assume you watched it. Especially from the lone female candidate up on the stage, Carly Fiorina. She said if you want to stump a democrat, she said ask them about Hillary Clintons accomplishments as secretary of state. If you were on that debate stage with her, what would you say was your number one accomplishment as secretary of state . You know, wolf, i didnt get to see all of their debate but i saw enough of it to know that this is just the usual back and forth political attacks, the kinds of things you say when youre on a debate stage and you really dont have much else to say. I didnt hear anything from any of them about how theyre going to make college more affordable or get down student debt or get equal pay for equal work for women. What theyre going to do to make sure we deal with challenges of raising incomes for hardworking people. So i dont really pay a lot of attention to this kind of rhetoric that heats the debate stage. Theyre all trying to vie for more attention from obviously the Republican Party. Im going to let them decide how best to do it. But if anybodys interested, you know, theres a long list about what i have done and im very proud of it. You can read my book hard choices read about how i negotiated a ceasefire between israel and hamas, how i put together the coalition that led to International Sanctions against iran. You can read about what i did when i was first lady to get the Childrens Health Insurance Program ora senator working across the aisle on issues like Getting Better health care for our veterans. This is the silly season. I am looking forward to eventually debating on that stage whoever they finally nominate. Youve dismissed Donald Trumps campaign as entertainment, suggested in part, its not really serious. But the Top Republican candidate right now, donald trump for that matter, Bernie Sanders, ben carson and Carly Fiorina. And Bernie Sanders is pulling ahead in some of the polls in New Hampshire and iowa. Hes running as an outsider as well. Why is Bernie Sanders ahead in the polls in New Hampshire and iowa right now . Ive said for a long time, polls will go up, theyre going to go down. Im very confident and very comfortable about our strategy. I feel that our campaign in iowa, New Hampshire, all the early states an now were moving on to the states that come after, are really coming together well. Im excited by the level and intensity of the support i have. So i always thought this would be a competitive election. Im looking forward to it. This is an important job. This is the most important job not only in you are our country but in the world. People have to fight hard. They have to make their case and earn the votes of the american voters. Hillary clinton, seeming a little bit more confident. Lets dig into why she would feel that way and whats going on with trump in the state of the gop. We have political reporter for time zeke miller and we also have errol lewis. Many felt the debate was a turning point for the gop. There as a reassemblage. Lets play it again, see how it lays out with the facts and lets take implications. Hes being asked a question by a man. What does he do and not do in response to the question. Judge for yourself. The problem in this country, its called muslim. We know our current president is one. You know hes not even an american. But anyway, we have Training Camps growing where they want to kill us. Thats my question. When can we get rid of them . Were going to be looking at a lot of different things. Forget about the answer. We need this question, errol lewis, does that attempt to go far enough to shut down what is a ridiculous assertion . It doesnt. He didnt shut down the question. I would like to think that donald trump is new enough to politics that he didnt know how to handle what is a very, very awkward situation, which is that something thats completely out of bounds and frankly crazy talk, suddenly, you know, is front and center, youre supposed to answer it. Do what john mccain did in 2008 and try to really sort of effectively assert yourself. We have that moment. Lets listen to how john mccain handled a similar situation the aa town hall. Listen to this. I cant trust obama. I have read about him and hes not hes a hes an arab. He is not . No. No . No, maam. No, maam. Hes a decent family man, citizen that i just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues. Thats what this campaign is all about. Hes not. Thank you. There you go. He takes the microphone, no, maam, no, hes a decent family man. He didnt have to go as far as he did. Senator mccain was being a gentleman. He could have said no, next question, move on. Put it behind you. Donald trump chose not to do that. Either because hes a political novice or because hes feeding off a kind of energy and isnt making the distinction that we would expect a candidate to make. We got a hint at part of the reason why. Whats the response from the campaign . After this it blew up and the campaign realized that was not the right way to handle it. All he heard was a question about the Training Camps which he said we have to look into. The media want to make this about obama. But its about him waging a war on christianity. Zeke . Even if this is a if he misheard something or not, this is the third or fourth or fifth time in the last few weeks where the campaign is claiming he misheard something he clearly heard, whether it be his comments about megyn kelly or Carly Fiorina. I wasnt talking about her appearance. What else were you talking about . These arent common expressions. These questions like this arent common. You know, for whats going through Donald Trumps mind when hes up there is, how do i get out of this situation . For him its the entertainers response of yes and the improv response. Youre then accepting the premise of the question. Yes. Is this a turning point, errol . This is to my ears the easiest thing for a politician to hit out of the park. That was a repugnant, racist question, lets move on. Its almost a difficult gift. It lets the politician take the high ground. Who questioned the president s citizenship and asked for a birth certificate. This is the transition from being an entertainer and a provocateur and being a celebrity figure and a politician. Even donald trump, his interview with you, hes gone further faster than even he expected. 90 days in hes leading in all the polls, all kinds of new things are happening. He has to work rope lines althoughs a germaphobe. He has to handle the questions even though he stirred up the sentiments that are coming back to haunt his cam pane. He has to figure out what hes going to do and how hes going to do it. I think well have a lot more of these awkward moments as he tries to figure out how to become a politician. Awkward moment is a nice way to say it. What people saw in that debate, again, 23 million of them, saw this, wasnt that donald trump was being hunted by the other candidates. But there was an elevation of the game in that debate. People were coming with heavy artillery of information, of rationales, of policy, of contrasting things, of history. Do you think that was part of the reason he was so quiet in the debate . He was shell shocked by the level of the game . Certainly for the first time in this really entire campaign, somebody drew blood on donald trump and it happened a series of times on wednesday night, whether it be Carly Fiorinas response to his attacks, jeb bush about his attacks on his wife. Jeb bush on the casino stuff, Chris Christie on his record saying people dont want to hear about this anymore. Donald trump was on the defensive really for the first time in this race. And it showed. He sort of disappeared for the 37minute stretch on Foreign Policy which might have helped him a little bit. Thats not where hes strong on. Looking at him last night, that town hall was not his normal format. He seemed to be on the defensive and shaken up by it. We have a its not a poll, its an interesting game where people give instant response during the debate an how they were feeling about the candidates. Its by political its called pivot, a political predict market and cnn. This is how people were feeling. This is at the start of the debate versus at the end. These are at the end. These are at the end. He was down 8 by the end of the debate. Ben carson was down 4 . Bush, had risen by the end of the debate. Fiorina had gone up also. An instant figure on the pulse feeling. Relative to where they started out coming into the debate. Yes. Absolutely. This gets back to, i this i, what you mentioned about the game being raised. I thought the most telling exchange in the entire evening was the medical marijuana debate where you have rand paul, the libertarian going at it with jeb bush, the conservative governor, the law and order guy, Chris Christie jumps in, Carly Fiorina jumps in with a personal experience. It was an actual debate, many different corners of conservatism coming together and mixing it up. Donald trump off to the side, nothing to say. And that i think is where this debate is starting to take us. Whats the other number, zeke, maybe that not that he gets away with it but hes not doing something thats as offensive as you might think by allowing this man this oxygen and question. Is this other number about where in the Republican Party people think the obamas religion lies . Republicans only. Christian, 29 , muslim, take a guess. 43 of those polled republican think that president obama is a muslim. What do you read into in that number as a rationale for how to approach the situation by donald trump . You look at what donald trump did. Hes probably catering. Theres probably a large overlap between that 40 and Donald Trumps 22 to 33 in the polls right now. Its probably the same people, the small minority of the broader electorate, 22 , 33 of 30 of america. Its hard to put your finger on it after 6 1 2 years of the president in the white house, two years of campaigning before that. They still believe this, theres probably nothing donald trump or anyone else can do to change their mine. This is donald trump trying to keep his support. If they believe it, hes going to say it. Because thats his way of keeping his base. You know, certainly as the game has been elevated he needs to work harder than ever for that. Interesting weekend to see what happens on campaign trail. Zeke, errol and the next set of poll numbers. That will be fascinating. Thanks so much. Cnn will reair the Republican Debate at 10 00 p. M. Eastern. Mark your calendars. Cnn and facebook will host the first Democratic Candidates debate on tuesday, october 13th, in vegas, baby, vegas. Did you say vegas. I did say vegas. Other news breaking overnight.
