Heard it at many of his rallies but yesterday at trump tower it went to a whole new level. I think the Political Press is among the most dishonest people ive ever met. Reporter donald trump going off on the media again. What i dont want, raise millions of dollars, have people say, like this sleazy guy right over here from abc. Hes a sleaze, in my book. Youre a sleaze, because you know the facts and you know the facts well. Excuse me. Excuse me. Ive watched you on television. Youre a real beauty. Find out how much Hillary Clintons given to the veterans. Nothing. Reporter the rant during Trumps Press Conference announced he raised 5. 6 million at a january event and distributed it to more than 40 Veterans Charities. I wasnt too involved in picking the organizations, other than i gave 1 million to the marine, Law Enforcement marine thank you, guys Hillary Clinton, Donald Trumps likely oh tonight in pp responded. Bragged for moss about raising millions for veteran and donating 1 million himself but it took a reporter to actually shame him for the contribution. Reporter her campaign trying to draw a contrast on veterans issues. Much of the work that ive done has meant tens of millions of dollars in increased benefits to veterans and their families as well as a personal commitment. Reporter this is the public getting a glimpse into trumps business tactics outlined in the Trump University socalled playbook. 400 pages of training material released at part of a Class Action Lawsuit reveals how team members were instructed to identify students whip tith the money and urged to close the deal on the gold elite costing mere think 35,000. The lawsuit alleges students paid their money and never learned a thing. The newly released documents cast light on how the university was marketed, but what they dont show is what happened in classes after the sale was made. I have a judge whos very, very unfair. He knows hes unfair, and ill win the Trump University case. Reporter and a little more about that poll that was released just a few moments ago that quinnipiac poll in a general matchup between clinton and trump in the election. It shows clinton at 45 , trump at 41 . A margin of error of about 2. 5 , which shows, come november, this could be a very, very tight race. Chris . Alisyn . J. C. , thank you very much. Lets discuss all that happened yesterday, and will happen today. Lets bring in cnn politics executive eder mark preston. Cnn political analyst and host of the David Gregory show podcast, David Gregory himself. Senior politics eder of it the daily beast, jackie kucinich. Such an agust title, kucinich, i start with you. What else do you need to see when measuring the temperament of a candidate than what we saw out of trump yesterday . The question is when is someone within his ranks going to tell him he has to change, or does that only happen when the people start to punish him for it . He said yesterday hes not going to change, even if elected. This is what a Trump Presidency would look like with him versus the press, but, i mean, lets be honest. This isnt about us, its about transparency. The fact he said he would give this money and didnt do it until frankly the Washington Post started looking into where this money was. A lot of those checks were dated the same day as that story came out. Right, but, jackie jackie, i think that at this point, i think its a little bit of almost an unnecessary indulgence to judge the situation on the merits. Of course, its not about us. Tom llamas, i know well, asked a straight question. The money moved not even an issue. Of course. Im saying its not really about the media. Its about what happens when hes with francois hollande. Youre weak. You dont know how to deal with terrorism where you are. Youre weak. Right. How is there any indication thats not exactly how hell be, because hes like that with everybody else . The one thing i will say for donald trump is that behind closed doors, and weve heard this many times from republicans that hes met with. He actually is said to be a very reasonable person and talks like a normal human and doesnt yell and scream. Maybe hell have a lot of secret meetings. I dont know. There you go. And david, listen, isnt the headline from yesterday to voters, he gave 5. 6 million to veterans. Who cares about a squabble with the press . Could have been the headline, had he not gone off like he did. This is probably the only agreement between trump and clinton. I dont think she put up too much of a disagreement about disliking the press. They might have a little comety on that. He went after the press yesterday and nobodys going to shed a tear. To chris point, assessment. What are we learning about donald trump in the face of scrutiny, about his transparency . What are we learning about his temperament . What are we learning about his reactions to people who are not obedient and loyal to him, whether youre the press or a judge in the case, or whether youre susana martinez, governor of new mexico who doesnt show up to an event . What do you learn about the way they handles the stress of a campaign . This is what people do as voters. They take the measure of someone they want to lead them, and whether its in diplomacy, negotiations with congress, or the temperament that comes with the stress and complexity of making a National Security decision, donald trump is providing as glimpse into the kind of president that he would be, and voters are going to make a judgment about that. Mark . Listen, i think, you know, to davids point, this could have been a fantastic story for donald trump and i think that donald trump mishandled this immensely from day one. A couple things. One is, donald trump said that this was not political in any nature, that he wanted no accolades. Clearly he wanted accolades. I was there that night in iowa as that rally. I was outside, you know, talking to people in the line, in that that night did he say hed raised 6 million . Of course he did. The question is not that he said it, its that he stood bike a deck clairetive question and able to step back, we didnt quite get to 6 million or raising money is difficult. More than that. He didnt like the press exercises. Didnt want to answer the questions, when, how, who, where . Thats whats we do. Show tell us about the money, show us where it went. Thats how he operates in his own business dealings and it works in a room mano a mano, but the press doesnt just take things on gospel. Right. He doesnt like being challenged. Thats Donald Trumps big effort problem. I dont know how many times hes actually been challenged in his lifetime where he hasnt mind or in his own mind he thought he had won. This is a case, they had terrible bookkeeping. They werent organized, and all he had to say from the getgo was, listen, were trying to make this work, were going to get the money, instead he turned it trying to take on the whole press corps. Part is deflection. Its fine. Should get a pat on the back with it. Hes found a way in an ugly business to be effective. Theres that. Then theres what jeff bassos was talking about, that, what does this do to the media . If you bash the media all the time, are you setting up some type of abridgement of the First Amendment . One of the most unique qualities of the First Amendment here. Here he is in his own words. One thing i think its not appropriate that that that donald trump is doing, working to freeze or chill the media that are examining him. Its its its just a fact that we live in a world where half the population on this planet, if you criticize your leader, theres a good chance youll go to jail or worse, and we live in this amazing democracy with amazing freedom of speech, and a president ial candidate should embrace that. What do you think of that, jackie . Would you be willing to put money right now that theres a 0 chance that President Trump would ever take action against a reporter he felt was really out of line . You know, hes actually said he wants to relax laws so it would be easier to sue news organizations. So its clear that it takes, the adversarial relationship to another level. Hes banned news organizations, daily beast reporters have been banned from his events. So its clear hes taking this to another level, and doesnt really plan on changing, because it continues to happen. But, david and work. Does it work . Do you think, david, it has a Chilling Effect . Its not like the Washington Post or the New York Times are pulling articling. He has had a Chilling Effect on journalism . Not at all. He cant get out of his way in terms of how fast he wants to get to a camera or cell phone to the media and call in. Look, politicians do this. He is an unconventional candidate running a populist movement campaign. Id be shocked if he werent railing against the media all the time. I mean, and, again, theres not a big wellspring of support for the media out in america. So this is a free pass in essence he gets. The bigger point is not about the press and the media at large. Its about, in many ways what he is representing of himself. The idea that when you start to embody the caricature of you, thats whats damaging. You see it with clinton as well and the emails. In this regard there was a question of transparency, and he made a big deal about raising money which was terrific. So just show us where the money went. So that you actually gave all of this what is he not doing . Hes not being transparents doesnt like to be questioned about his business back yougrou not releasing his taxes. He considers that an affront and thats what we do. Its not about what we do in our jobs, its whabout what he doesn his job and its working. Hes amassed a big number of people who share his views. He may have an opponent in the form of hasnt worked on us. David french. Right. And were going to talk about it in the next block. I want to tee it up for people. We now believe we believe, preston needs time to get it straight, got a lot of ideas in this head. David french. So thats the guy who they say now bill kristol says may be able ta take down donald trump. How realistic . Well discuss it. First other news with ana. Dont forget the democrats. Bernie sanders saying he is taking this fight all the way to the kwengConvention Even if hil clinton wins in new jersey and california. By the way, clinton now picking up a big enforcement in california. Cnn senior washington correspondent joe johns following the latest for the democrats this morning. Joe .

Conservative bill kristols mystery third challenger to donald trump has been revealed, we believe. It is Weekly Standard writer david french. Lets look at just who he is and the effect he could have on this election. Our panel, mark preston, David Gregory and jackie kucinich. David french, in iraq war vet a bronze star recipient, what else do we know about him . Hes nos a household name, per se . Not a household name. From what ive seen literally in the last few minutes, Erick Erickson a leader in the conservative movement, his understanding this rolled out quicker than david french anticipated. He said that actually he could get behind a david french candidacy, which might give you some insight into conservative thinking, a leader in. Will others follow behind . What is really important, specifically as republicans are looking for a horse to run against donald trump. Erick writes, we watch trump fail on his own instead of providing a conservative scapegoat. In other words, let trump go out there by himself and if he fails, he has no one else to blame but himself. What does he offer up, mr. French, in terms of pluses and minuses for republicans or all voters . Hes very conservative. He shares a lot of social conservative values that donald trump hasnt really expressed or, you know hasnt satisfied a lot of conservative voters. He doesnt have a lot of name recognition. Its not clear where his money would come from, because he would need money to run, and there would be a Ballot Access issue, and, you know, hed be running against someone with, two people, with some of the most highname i. D. In the country or in the world in a lot of cases. So to say this would be an uphill climb, i think that is understating it, frankly. David gregory, lets look at new polls that show the race between Hillary Clinton and donald trump. They are neck and neck in the cnn poll of polls that just came out in the past hour, but lets dive in and look at the quinnipiac polls, because this shows how voters are feeling about them. Number one, clinton versus trump. What are clintons strengths . Okay . According to voters. They believe she is better prepared than donald trump more intelligent than donald trump and has higher moral standards. As you can see there, than donald trump. The flip side. How voters feel about trumps strengths . Do they feel he is more honest and trustworthy than Hillary Clinton a stronger leader and more inspiring. What do you see there, david . Well, i see a couple of things. One, there is, the country settles in to a 50 50 proposition between republican and democrat. We see a familiar pattern. Its an astonishing amount of consolidation among republican voters, selfidentified republican vote heres have fallen in line for trump much more quickly than i think we would have seen. I dont think its as equal as we see because shes still fighting Bernie Sanders and once Hillary Clinton gets nor consolidation on the democratic side she probably goes up. But, again, this is where the idea of a Third Party Candidate can be important, because donald trump has to get into the game of addition. And he has to Start Building in areas where hes weak. Women, minorities, and selfidentified conservatives, in important states. Regions of the country he has to get involved, in addition, and whether its a libertarian candidate or conservative candidate that draws against him, even if its 1 or 2 or as high as 10 he knows well thats ultimately going to be throwing the race towards Hillary Clinton. Who does david french, mark, take from trump . Im trying to think. Were calling him conservative. Hes a very hard line social issue guy. Trump is, really, not that close to him on that level, and i guess as jackie is saying, its a little point of concern for certain types of conservative, but who does he take from them to beat Hillary Clinton . To davids point there, donald trump is fighting this political war on multiple fronts instead of just focusing all of his attention on taking on Hillary Clinton. We saw him go after susana martinez, going against republican women. Whenever a detractor in the Republican Party doesnt get in line behind him you know, a vote for french is a vote for clinton and those types of people, would they risk that . Eve
