Transcripts For CNNW Wolf 20161019 : vimarsana.com

As america and the world tunes in. Right to our senior Political Correspondent Brianna Keilar following the Clinton Campaign. And john acosta, the Trump Campaign and anchor of cnn inside politics is here with us as well, john king. Brianna, Hillary Clinton has been in debate probe now several days. Are we expecting a new strategy . I think theyre comfortable with their strategy. Days of preparation. Seen it again. Laying low, allowing popular surrogates, elizabeth warren, Bernie Sanders, president obama, first Lady Michelle obama, do a lot of the campaigning, and for whatever criticism she may have taken in the first debate she may have seen robotic or over prepared, she thinks, im told making the case, look, a sign im taking this seriously and her campaign is looking at the fact they think she did pretty well. So we see the polls. Shes doing better in the polls. There attributing some to her debate preparation. Certainly some has to do with the access Hollywood Tape and also accusers coming out against donald trump but feel theyre on the right track. Not really going to be changing that up. Another thing i think will see is her addressing this issue of the ricked election. That donald trump is talking about. Trying to cast him as a loser whos complaining, whos sour grapes and dealing, of course with the wikileaks emails from her campaign trail john podesta. Heard from many surrogates saying if these are even real. I think try to pivot to russia and try to link donald trump to russia. Obviously the u. S. Thinks russia has to can do with those leaks. Speak to john podesta momentarily about that and a lot more. Jim acosta, donald trump, this is las vegas. Is he going to gamble tonight . Will we see a new strategy tonight from him aopposed to th first two debates . Hes running low on chips, say to safe. What weve seen over the last couple days, preview of coming attractions. See donald trump take on a very aggressive tone. Very clear in the debate guests hes bringing. Pat smith, benghazi mother. Malik, president obamas half brother. Aggressive moves by the Trump Campaign to try to get inside the heads of the Clinton Campaign. Donald trump prepared differently for tonights debate. Use Reince Priebus and Chris Christie playing the role of Hillary Clinton. Rein Reince Priebus ask a question, Chris Christie pushing back as clinton. A rigged election, drain the swamp, donald trump has taken on a very antiwashington, antiestablishment tone in the last few days. The ringed election line really revs his supporters and notion of drarning the swamp is a message that can still get republicans just hanging on in their support for donald trump to stand with him. They want to keep the bottom from falling out tonight, wolf, in addition to looking for Hillary Clinton to have some sort of big mistake or bad night. I think that is what donald trump is looking for tonight. John king, a new look at the road to 270. 270 Electoral College votes you need to be elected president of the United States. Wolf, look at this. Jim talking about trump being trump. Look at this, trumps coming in with a strategy. May not change, may show up his republican base, but not working when you get to the business of 270 electoral votes. The new list, clinton 307. Donald trump slipping. Takes 270 to win. The morning of the first debates at 272. Trump at 196, but trump was moving, tied or ahead in nevada, tied or ahead in florida and North Carolina and ohio. In play to get into the 260 es and make a play for the race. Look at it now. Taken utah and arizona. Turned from red states to tossup states because polling in those states suggest theyre in play. Utah, Hillary Clinton leads in arizona, leaned this state, nevada, with a tossup, first debate. Now leaning democratic. North carolina, now florida, i mean, excuse me, now leans democratic. North carolina still a tossup, latest polls show clinton slightly ahead. Shes on track, wolf, right now heading into the third debate to match or exceeded 332 that president obama received in his overwhelming win against mitt romney. Back to close with this. The map state by state is overwhelming, but think about what you said at the top of the show. A ninepoint National Lead. Unheard of in recent american polarized president ial politic. The obama romney race on this day of the third debate tied. Tied. Ninepoint National Lead is remarkable in this environment weve lived. Thanks. Hillary clinton heads into tonights debate leading nationally as well as in key battleground states. So what is her strategy and what are her biggest concerns going into this important debate jie want to bring in Clintons Campaign chair john podesta. Thanks for joining us. Good to be with you. Doing debate prep mode now for several days. Theres talk that donald trump may engage in a new strategy more storched earth strategy leveling charges against her. I assume shes practicing getting ready noor . She does practice for these debates, takes them very seriously. An opportunity to talk to millions of American People, and its worked for her. That lead john talked about has opened up as a result of the debate performances, and Donald Trumps falters debate performances in the first debate and i think she won the second debate. So i think that he can decide to go scorched earth but that isnt working for him. Maybe solidified his base, fired up his most ardent supporter, but when it comes to undecideds, people try to make up their mind are moving towards her. Her Approval Ratings are going up. His continues to go down. Bad strategy for him but we fully expect he may try it tonight. Still questions of honesty and trustworthiness. Ed rendell had advid fore advice for her. Be president ial, hang in there, not to be smug or selfconfident or over confident, because elections can turn. If you couldnt hear because theres a crowd behind us i got the advised her not to be smug, selfconfident or over confident, if you will, because elections can turn. Still almost three weeks to go. Theres no one in the Clinton Campaign whos over confident. Were working every day. We built a tremendous organization on the ground, in contradiction to what trump has tried to do. She is coming in here to, again, talk to the American People, to take on the challenge that and anything that trump will throw at her, but we need to use these last three weeks to seal the deal as it were, to get our vote out to make sure that people understand that she wants to build an economy thats going to work for everyone. Not just people at the top. Thats what shes going to be prosecuting tonight and i think, you know, shes going to challenge donald trump on the way hes run his campaign. On the fact that now hes running around saying its rigged even as his own Campaign Manager threw him under the bus this morning and said that, you know, she didnt think there would be much voter fraud in this election and virtually every republican official said. Thats kellyanne conway, a pollster for donald trump. She said, though, Hillary Clinton should be further ahead right now. Listen to what she said last night on cnn. Hillary clinton, shes got the current president , past president , happens to be married to, a very popular first lady, more popular than Hillary Clinton will ever be in Michelle Obama. The Vice President , endless amounts of money. I tried to say last week on your show, anderson, why cant she get to 50 and stay there anywhere . An important question in answering yours. Shes like the 46 gal. Shes nowhere near the margins that president obama got twice in states that, where were competitive. Your response . John noted, a ninepoint lead in the poll of polls. It is a fourway race. Were trying to talk to people who are thinking about voting for the third and fourth party candidates. Gary johnson, and the Green Party Jill stein. And so that this really is a binary choice. Its Hillary Clinton or its donald trump. And we think that if you look at issues like climate change, like building a strong economy, like creating equal pay for equal work that hillarys the right choice, and but shes sitting with a ninepoint deficit, unprecedented in political history. Given more advice for her candidate rather than ours. One of the people donald trump invited to be a special guest tonight, patricia smith, mother of one of the benghazi victims, sean smith. She blames Hillary Clinton for her sons death. Presumably Donald Trumps going to bring this up tonight. How is Hillary Clinton going to respond . Look, this is a tragedy, and she, of course, tragically lost her son, and in benghazi, we honor the four people who died there, but hillary spent the time subsequent to that when secretary of state trying to beef up and ensure that we have differentmatic security, all of our outposts are dangerous places but there have been nine investigations of this and all concluded that hillary was, a not responsible, did nothing wrong. The republicans tried to make this a major issue on capitol hill and couldnt do it. She faced 11 hours of testimony. Hes going to want letter to apologize to patricia smith. Will she . Well, look, i think that what hillary will do, again, is to honor her loss and state her sympathy for the fact that she has lost her son, and that is a tragedy, and so is the loss of every american whos overseas and lost their life in the battle for stopping terrorism and the battle for freedom. In knithis particular case, hily the track record using this occasion to improve security and to try to move forward and as i said, nine investigations found she has she operated with the information she had and all right. And acted appropriately. Another unvited get, president obama half dbrother. Told brooke baldwin, just an appetizer. Worried about other iz sproo s that may be in store . Theres no depth to which they can go. You know, bannon has probably made things worse, but his whole crew and cast of characters there, dave bossy, bannon, et cetera, im sure encouraging more antics like we saw in the second debate from donald trump, but, look, i think were ready for anything, and and, again, i think this is a strategy thats driving trump down, and produced that lead. Whatever theyre going to do as Michelle Obama says, when they go low, we go high. Quickly, the New York Times reporting your campaign asked for a change in protocol so the two candidates at the top of the debate wouldnt have to shake hands. And that bill clinton wouldnt have to shake hands with Melania Trump or other members of the trump family. Is that true . Look, we would like the appropriate courtesies of normal debates, but what you saw in the second debate in st. Louis was that they dont recognize those normal courtesies. The Debate Commission did you ask for a change in protocol so there wouldnt be an opportunity to shake hands jvlgtsz well see what we get tonight. She didnt shake his hand added beginning and did at the end. Did you ask for a change in protocol so there wouldnt be an opportunity to shake hands . We want a debate conducted with decorum. You dont want to answer that question . Well see what happens tonight. Talk about the stolen emails from your account, wikileaks stolen thousands every day including today thousands being released. How concerned are you that your email account was hacked, if will you . This was a, Gmail Account you are, right . A concern to every american that as the u. S. Government, our intelligence sources, the department of Homeland Security indicated these hacks are coming from russian sources. Theyre in cahoots with wikileaks putting this out. Do you believe the russian government hacked your email . Yes. Thats what i believe, and i think we have been informed by Law Enforcement sources that theyre conducting this investigation as part of the broader investigation that theyve taken the unprecedented step of the the director of National Intelligence and director of Homeland Security have said are at their root russian hacks. So all the transcripts acting as a and, look, if this was about transparency theyd put them all out. Dribbling them out because they want because the russians are intervening in this election on behalf of donald trump, because donald trump has been someone who has basically taken every position that Vladimir Putin has as opposed to the Bipartisan Group of of on both sides of the aisle, of people who have thought whats the issue of the United States. Marco rubio said even this morning he wouldnt condone it, participate it, because he knows whats up. This is the russians trying to interfere in our election. Any ameils doctored or accurate . Only say this, wolf. When this first came out it came out with a lie from joanna saying when he first released these that i was a coowner of the podesta group. Factually, completely untrue. What is what is false, what is act krit, ycurate transcripts of speeching before goldman sachs. Are they accurate . What i would say to that, wolf, is were not going to get into that, but what i would say is that she has said to people on wall street before the 2008 election, during the crisis, and during the speeches that they need to be held accountable. They cannot be allowed to let wall street wreck main street again. Put out the most aggressive wall street plan of any candidate. What does donald trump want to do . Repeal dodd frank. Shes been forwardleaning in saying they will regulate and be tough on wall street. And says according to the transcripts you need one position in public for the American People and but you need another private position no. I think that in the context of this, what she has said to them was they were playing with fire, and in the Mortgage Market with credit default swaps should get a fairer tax code by eliciting, getting rid of carried interest. That dodd frank would be enforce pd and gone further than that in this campaign. So i think shes been, even though she represented new york, shes been tough on wall street. Shell continue to be tough on wall street and i think thats what her speeches have indicated. Look at the commentarys people are surprised when he look at the whole basket to find that, that the reformers are kind of pleased and the people on wall street kind of nervous. Theres a reason for that. Because shes going to be tough on wall street. Youve got to run. Quickly, one of the emails you called Bernie Sanders a dufus. Did you . Well, you know, i have Great Respect for Bernie Sanders. There was a moment where he opposed the paris deal, where, you know, without conferring the accuracy of the email, i was frustrated with him, but he and i have a very Good Relationship. A lot of rapport. Ive worked with pat leahy the other senator from vermont and a very Good Relationship with senator sanders and a great affection for him but i think when he criticized the paris agreement, i didnt think he was taking the right position and im very proud of president obama for delivering such an important climate agreement. Ill take that as a yes. Im take that as a statement that i have grade admiration for senator sanders. And other words used to characterize even memberses of the cnn crew to might read some of you say things got to be careful with emails. Say things in private you regret, but i have great affection and admiration for senator sanders. Thank for joining us. John podesta, Campaign Chair for Hillary Clinton. Coming up, traditional republican states like arizona and utah apparently up for grabs by the clinton camp. Senior adviser Republican Party chair standing by to join us live. Talking how his candidate plans to hold on to those states. Were in las vegas, the site of the final president ial debate. If polls are any indication trump is entering tonights debate in the weakest position hes been in the entire campaign. Not only trailing Hillary Clinton in national polls, also in states reliably republican in years past. Newly updated battleground map, for example, showing states like utah and arizona now tossups. Latest poll, in fact, from the Arizona Republic and others showing Hillary Clinton up over trump in arizona by five points with only 20 days left until the election. Joining us now, adviser to the Trump Campaign, and arizona Republican Party chairman. Thank you for being with us g. To be here. Whats going on in arizona . Working hard, take all election polls serious, but theyre not consistent with whats really happening on the ground in arizona. You dont think these polls are accurate . No, i dont. Three key points in arizona. Arizona has a massive republican add vang, 175,000 more republicans registered, active republicans. 21 field offices over 12,000 volunteers that are we cant even deploy them fast enough not mention the millions and calls and doors were knocking on. Weve mobilized the force. You engage the voters it becomes a meaningful outcome for any candidate and were not seeing that on hillary. What does it say, your senior senator john mccain doing well in the polls has certainly not been out there campaigning for donald trump in arizona . I think what happens, calculus is different. A senator that represents everybody in the state of arizona, as it relates to republicans, democrats and independents, and hes well liked. He blew his competition out of does that hurt trump hes not helping him in arizona . No. John mccain has always been john mccain and taken his own personal positions. Right now youre seeing, again, Momentum Shift really strong behind trump in our state even though the polls suggest opposite. But mccains doing his thing and us as a Republican Party, my Job Description is solely to get all republicans elected including mccain and donald trump. What do you expect from trump tonight, really his last major chance to address tens of millionsing of americans . I think hell lean into this one in an aggressive way. When you hear donald trump and work through to his real message, job safety, for everybody. A high hispanic population, high unemployment, hes actually speaking right to them as a man who knows how to deploy people and get resources and jobs for hardworking taxpayers. Going after Hillary Clinton the character . Go with what critics call the gutter politics . The thing about Hillary Clinton, we want her to be held accountable and i think trump wants her held accountable. A pattern over the last 30 years, bad acting behavior an dishonesty. People see it. Number one question to describe, or word to describe Hillary Clinton has been dishonesty. See what shes doing,volu mr. Es of emails, he has a responsibility. Hell come out swinging . I think so. Party chairman from arizona, Republican Party chairman, robert graham. Coming up, billionaire caught in the middle. Casino King Steve Wynn considered donald trump and Hillary Clinton to be his friends. Will tonights debate help him pick who he decides to put his chips behind . Ill ask him when our special live coverage continues right here from las vegas. Share the joy of real cream. With reddiwip. On a perfect car, then smash it into a tree.

Looking at live pictures coming from from laguna, california, where ivanka trump is the featured singer at a Fortune Magazine summit conference, mow powerful women. Shell take the stage shortly. Well monitor that. She expected to be here in las vegas later tonight with her dad, when he father warparticips in this third and final debate. And chairman and ceo of wynn resortr resor resorts, limited, among other places, thanks for joining us. Nice to be with you. Donald trump dntd aand Hillary Clinton. Known president clinton a long time. Still havent made up your mind who youll support . Well, ive concentrated you know, ive gone both ways. My program has always been, i go with the candidate. Whoever i think is best at the time. We have a terrific candidate for the senate in congressman joe heck, and so ive been concentrating on joe, but with regard to the president ial campaign, im one of those people who believes that the conversation has been off point. We take in 3. 1 billion a year. We spend 3. 7 trillion a year, and then 600 billion gap, its 50 billion a month in new money being printed in order to cover the deficit of our country. It is degrading the value of every single paycheck in the United States of america, and causing tremendous consternation as it degrades and lowers which candidate can deal with that better . The Living Standard of all americans nap is the question. My objection is the conversation is not dealing with the thats coming up tonight. That subject is expected to come up foent. That will be a wonderful thing. But as it stands now, paul ryan will be the speaker of the house. I believe. Without too much doubt. Mrs. Clintons a favorite at the moment. Things could always change. In the senate, a jump ball. We are going to have, again, gridlock. Of a sort. That means that the executive branch is going to control all of the agencies that we know by initials, the irs, nlrb, et cetera. 465 agencies withes 2. 65 million civilian employees. Law has been made lately, hundreds of regulations let me ask you this. Based on what you hear tonight youll make up your mind whether to vote for Hillary Clinton or donald trump . Is that what i hear you saying . A more accurate way of putting it is that im hoping, and so far ive been frustrated, that the conversation is more sub starve tstantive area that americans. That will come home rapidly and terrible in the futures if tonight this debate deals with those issues substantively, i think myself and a whole bunch of americans will get answers that we crave, but i think im i think i speak for an awful lot of people in american when i say were frustrated with the level of this campaigns conversation. It started in the primaries, on both sides, and its gotten progressively worse. You know, everybody is spinning. Everybody is all right. Issues propaganda, and you guys, at cnn and fox are trying to sort it out. So far its been an uphill battle. Were doing our best. I know you are doing your best. Thanks for joining us. Wolf, always nice to have you here in las vegas. Hopefully youll make up your mind tonight. Youll let us know, right . Maybe. Much more of our speck defe coverage of the debate. People used as human shield in iraq as the battle rape rag. A live report from iraq is coming up. 97 . Yes. You know, that reminds me of geicos 97 Customer Satisfaction rating. 97 . Helped by geicos fast and friendly claims service. Huh. Oh yeah, baby. Geicos as fast and friendly as it gets. Woo geico.

Were live here in las vegas 378 on. Only hours way from the third and final debate between Hillary Clinton and donald trump. Much more on that, our Political Panel is standing by. Switching gears and heading overseas. Breaking news, iraqiled forces now in the fourth day of military operations to retake mosul. The second largest city in iraq from isis control. The last remaining stronghold of the terror group in iraq. The commander of the iraqi armys Armored Division says troops are closing in on mosuls fringes after liberating communities village by village over the past two days. Arwa damon joins us live from erbil, not that far away. Phasing fierce resistance from these isis terrorists. What are you hearing how long this battle might take . Reporter well, wolf, the estimates range from weeks to months. Whats happening is that in some strategic towns, isis is putting up quite a fight, but then in other areas, the iraqis and the Kurdish Peshmerga have been able to move forward fairly quickly. Senior commanders are telling us, we were just down at the front lines, is that they need to make sure that everyone is pushing forward. More or less simultaneousy, because they really want a cohesive effort when it comes to squeezing off isis, but even if those areas that are fairly quickly liberated, wolf, the iraqi soldiers were talking to are saying, look, were not taking any chancess we know we are facing a very determined enemy, and one that does fight to the death. Throughout all of this were seeing these isis tactics, such as using underground tunnels to pop out and launch attacks onto forces as they advance. Launching suicide bombers, suicide car bombers and also a lot of shoot and scoot tactics where they come in and just try to distract the iraqis and the kurds, try to stop them from moving forward, and, of course, in all of this, wolf, you have the civilian population. Some of the villages on the outskirts of the city deserted. Some not. One little boy burst into tears when he saw the iraqi soldiers because he associated that with the gun battle that happened that sent bullets flying into the wall of his house. No one was hurt, earlier that morning. Of course, the great concern is the closer these forces get to mosul and actually reach the city itself, a lot of the tactics there relying on now, the tampgs, the artillery and air strikes, they wont be able to use that in a city like mosul with a population potentially upwards of 1 Million People. So were still very much in the initial stages of what promises to be a long and complex battle, one arguably the biggest challenge for iraq, one that will define its future and quite potentially the future of the region, wolf. Arwa damon on the scene for us. Be careful, arwa. Well stay in close touch. Coming up, back to the race for the white house. Maybe as many as 70 Million People here in the United States expected to watch what happens on the stage. This debate stage later tonight. So will donald trump stick to his base . Will he try to broaden his appeal, and will Hillary Clinton speak directly to republicans . Our Political Panel, standing by to weigh in on their target audience. Otless vehicles have conquered highways, mountains, and racetracks. And now much of that same advanced technology is found in the audi a4. With one notable difference. The highly advanced audi a4, with available traffic jam assist. In a little more than seven hours donald trump and Hillary Clinton, they will faceoff right here in las vegas in the final president ial debate at the end of the night each getting one last chance to make their case to voters from a national stage. Which voters do they need to target and what do they need to say to win them osier . Bring in our panel. Maeve reston, political director david chalian. Executive editor mark preston and senior politics writer for u. S. World and news report. What voters do trump and clinton need to target tonight . Clinton has got to hold on to what shes got. Certainly expand that universe of millennials not sure about her. The former Bernie Sanders supporters who dont like what theyve seen in the leaked emails, and trump should be reaching out to those white suburban women, but we havent seen any move by him in that direction to do that. But i think thats the imperative for both tonight. David chalian, last debate Hillary Clinton tried to reach out to some republicans, independents, said this. Listen look, i want to be a president for all americans. Not some americans. I want to be a president for people who agree with me and dont agree with me. I want to be a president for democrats, republicans, and independents. So is that still her target audience, and what does trump need to do to reach more voters, if you will . Yeah. Trump really should be targeting beyond his base. Targeting everyone beyond his base and should probably mirror some of that language. It would be helpful to him. I dont think thats what hes doing. Every indication in the last 23 days before the first debate, making sure his base comes out in numbers. For Hillary Clintons part, she has her base, obviously, maeve was saying. She can move beyond it. Talking about making the base more enthusiastic. Youll hear more language of that. That event was in las vegas right here. I think youre going to here talk like that, because Hillary Clinton and her campaign are keenly aware if she wins this election shes going to do so with a lot of votes who see her unfavorab unfavorably, dont trust her. She has to think how she governs for all. One of trump the major promises, bring back manufacturing and other jobs to the United States. Listen to what he said about coal miners, for example. Whos a miner . Raise your hand. You . You dont look like a miner. A lot of miners. All right. Get ready to go to work. Get ready to go to work. Your jobs will come back around trump administration. Your incomes will go up under a trump administration. Your taxes will go way, way down under a trump administration. [ cheers and applause ] i assume well hear more of that as he targets his audience. No doubt hell say youre not a minor, even though the gentleman says he is. I think they have a similar audience they have to go for. They have to go for married women. Donald trump seemed to be doing better with married women before the controversy came up but more importantly right now they have to work out to White Working Class and College Educated women. Weve seen slippage with donald trump, particularly with the White Working Class voters specifically the past month but even more importantly the midwest. He has to target these voters in the specific state he is has to win, pennsylvania, he has to win ohio, perhaps michigan, maybe wisconsin. At the same time, wolf, whats troubling for him is hes playing defense in a state like nevada with we are right now. In colorado hes not doing very well. The fact is when utah and texas are being discussed, not good. Arizona. Even arizona. Its been 20 years since its gone republican in a president ial contest david, what do you think, the voters both candidates need to appeal tonight . Donald trump cannot preach to the choir. He has to talk to everyone outside of his 40 . This guy has been through the ringer. The people behind us that love him will be with him no matter what. He is going to broaden his coalition to anyone that is against him. Hillary clinton has a luxury. Shes ahead in this race so she can talk to republicans. If i was her id sit up there and talk about hey, is this about Party Loyalty . Are you going to let this man get to the presidency. Think long and hard about that before you vote. Maeve, put yourself in their respective shoes, how do they make their respective cases . The Closing Argument tonight i think donald trump needs to be is that he is the agent of change. Hes obviously going to keep making this argument that the system is rigged but the change agent argument is the strongest for him. For Hillary Clinton, she must make her case hold on for a moment. Were just getting this tape in, i want to discuss it in a moment. Ivanka trump in california was just asked about the access Hollywood Tape that her father was caught saying very inappropriate things. Listen to what she just said. I have the good fortune of knowing my father so well not only as a parent, and hes been an amazing parent to me and im now a mother of three children ages five and from five to three to six months so i dont take for granted in any way how hard it is to be a good parent and he was a loving and suppo supportive and tough at times parent who challenged me and my siblings to achieve our potential and helped us find purpose in our lives which is what any parent can do but ive also known him in a capacity as a leader and executive at the Trump Organization where ive also worked in addition to my own brand for over a decade and ive seen him inspire tens of thousands of people. Well continue to watch ivanka trump. What she did say when she was discussed that access Hollywood Tape she said it was a mistake, he apologized, weve heard her say that, maeve, before. This is an issue will presumably come up tonight. And an issue thats very uncomfortable for ivanka who has presented herself as an independent, she needs to protect her own brand so a touchy subject for her to deal with and for clinton, the interesting thing is to see whether or not she engages on this issue. Shes allowed it to let it breathe, let these women come forward, give their allegations and stayed out of the fray and thats been effective so far. David, its a 90minute debate, no commercial interruptions, six themes going forward, one of them fitness to be president of the United States. To me that is the key for donald trump. When we said this before the first debate, he hasnt solved this problem for himself yet. A majority of voters still see him as unfit for the office. They cant quite picture him there yet. And this is what he has to he has to cross that fitness threshold if hes going to mount what would be one of the greatest political comebacks in american history. And she has to improve her credibility as well. Voters dont think shes honest and trustworthy. Thats been her achilles heel throughout this whole process. What she has going for her tonight is that donald trump has been so selfdirective iselfd past week. He hasnt done enough to stem the allegations against him. Hes talking about voter fraud when theres no evidence theres voter fraud. Donald trump needs to get back to basics to talk about what hes going to talk about but Hillary Clinton needs to go out there and show the people she is going to be a leader for everyone, including these folks back here who are shouting about her. Donald trump is going to be asked about these allegations tonight. Hes going to deny it but the key for him is he has to move past it, not get down a robert hole. Frankly i think he should have melania with Anderson Cooper a week ago. Ivanka they should have rolled out a week ago. They can not still be talking about this. They should talking about issues talking about im the change candidate, shes more stagnation, corruption and the same and he should be drilling down on those wikileaks emails to undermine her credibility. Do you think hes been practicing that. I dont know if hes been practicing but it would be malpractice if he doesnt repeatedly go back to the wikileaks. Hes got rich material to work with anymore n these wikileaks emails. Its going to be an exciting moment. The third and final president ial debate, well be watching and have live coverage before and after. Thats it for me, thanks for watching, live coverage of this, the final president ial debate here in las vegas continues right after a quick break.
