If you are currently undecided, 2027488003. You can post on our twitter page and you can post on facebook, too. Here are the headlines in the papers today. This all stemming from the back and forth between donald trump and paul ryan after the House Speaker said he will concern himself with house races more than the president ial race and mr. Trumps candidacy. If you go to the pages of the washington post, that headline reads trump bashes gop leaders. Particularly those that turned away from them. Sa today has a list of senators who will not support mr. Trump. The survey identified 87 republicans not supporting mr. Trump as of tuesday. Some of these elected officials rejected trump months ago, many turned on him since the release of a tape from 2005 at mr. Trump making lewd comments about women. With that in mind, the tone of campaign 2016, what you perceive it to be, are you concerned about it . If you support Hillary Clinton. 2027488002 for a thirdparty candidate. 2027488003 if youre undecided. 2027488001 if you support donald trump. Michael is up first from pennsylvania. He does support donald trump. How would you characterize the tone of the campaign . Caller it is very divisive. Its not what i expected to see in the Republican Party. I do blame some of the republican officials and congressmen. I have not been a trump supporter from the getgo. I was almost anything but trump. Point, im anything but hillary. You will impact our constitution, our Supreme Court, particularly our Supreme Court. When she says in the debate that nominate people for the Supreme Court that have life experiences, that tells me everything i need to know. Supposed tocourt is defend the constitution and we on the have People Supreme Court who think the South African constitution is a better representative of our government. If theres anything america has been and should be about come its limited government and our constitution. I dont know that donald trump will carry that through, but it is so important that we elect somebody as president who will nominate constitutionally minded Supreme Court justices. Iris on the tone of campaign 2016. She is in michigan, an undecided voter. Today . How are you doing i think it is very contentious. It puts a lot of fear into the people in this country. There are too many managers, too in the background, theyve had years of experience that i all over the map think they are manipulated as candidates. I dont think they are allowed to get their true feelings out there. A lot of people in this country are very fearful because theres too many people in the business and the press, they are so vicious. Host is it making it harder for you to make a decision . Caller i certainly cant vote for the scary guy. He knows less than a twoyearold on certain matters. He has that confused look on his face jill stein is not given any time to talk. Its like they are invading the system. And the new have the president talking about dont throw your vote away on a thirdparty because its not going to work when did the president ever put his two cents in . It kind of makes you crazy. If you are interested in seeing that thirdparty candidates talk about their campaigns, they were on our program last night. Go to our website at www. Cspan. Org. Frank is in birmingham, alabama. Is supporting Hillary Clinton. Caller my issue is as well with the media, as she said. , they toldbate audience members not to clap or applaud. Deal,nute into trumps they started clapping and cheering. Rise. This 2 clinton was leading by double digits. This morning, he is at 9 . Loud, too many talking heads and all that. Goreo glad you guys had al talking about how he won the popular vote in the Supreme Court issue and the Supreme Court issue took the president ial election from al gore. If we continue to have singledigit edge going into , we president ial election u. S. Supreme court again giving us a president of the United States of america. The thing with the Electoral College and the process is not one person, one vote in the first place. I sincerely hope most americans concentrate all politics is local. Three comments on the tone of campaign 2016. Thats what we are inviting you to call us today and give your thoughts the caller had andioned that bill Clinton Al Gore campaigning with Hillary Clinton in florida, talking about the issues of Climate Change. [video clip] maybe donaldon will listen to our military leaders who say Climate Change threatens our national security. What about the ranchers in colorado or mayors in arizona and Community Leaders in alaska who say our lives and jobs are being affected . Lets come together as a country and do something about it. Putting a climate denier in the white house. That is absolutely unacceptable. [applause] clinton we need a president who believes in science and has a plan to lead america in facing this threat and creating good jobs and yes, saving our planet. First, we need to do a lot more on clean energy. The Clean Energy Superpower of the 21st century is going to be germany, china or us and i wiped want it to be us. We need to accelerate the transition and create , building andbs installing more solar panels and wind turbines, modernizing our electric grid, building 21st entry infrastructure. We need to make sure no community is left behind. Tone of campaign 2016 and your thoughts on it. Fayetteville, North Carolina, a thirdparty supporter. Hello, ted. Caller i support jill stein. I saw jill stein last night. Gary johnson supports natural gas fracking. He believes in Global Warming but doesnt want the government to do much about it. His environmental positions are terrible. Jill stein has a plan to move this country forward. The commissioner on debates is unfair because they have a threshold where each candidate has to get five different polls, they have to get 15 . That makes it almost impossible for a thirdparty candidate like joel stein to get into the debate. Jill stein to get into the debate. Hillary clinton is the lesser of two evils. Trump is a horrible candidate. Would cut taxes for the rich. He ran a Scam University and so on. Hillary supports natural gas fracking, she supported nafta host what do you think about the tone of campaign 2016 . Thats what were talking about. Caller its horrible. The two candidates are talking over each other, they are both making accusations and we are not getting to the issues. Both of the candidates are terrible in that respect. Urban is next in florida. Supporter of Hillary Clinton. Im 77 years young. This is the Worst Campaign ive ever seen since i was a kid in 1948. Yes, they had a tough campaigns. Queens, 40 minutes from trump. I find trump to be the most disgusting, disgraceful if you walk on fifth avenue and shot somebody, he would still be elected president. Weve had some pretty rough elections over the years. Who said tedan cruzs father may have been involved in the kennedy assassination. Trump has been investigated all over the world. I am totally a democrat, but nonetheless, im proud that crews did not support trump. Host bob is a supporter of donald trump. Go ahead. Caller what put me onto donald trump is the email release from yesterday. The snake is rotting from the head down. Theres collusion going on between the white house, the cnn news fed hillary questions ahead of time. She knew word for word the question she would be getting. Compass. O moral wikileaks stuff affected the tone . Its happening right under our nose. Caves withple in their heads being cut off and we have all this mess going on did you watch al gores movie 15 years ago . According to that, we had 10 years and we were done. Host bob mentioned the email dump by wikileaks. John podesta responding to it saying russian spies hacked emails. He said he had spoken with the fbi as a victim of packing. Is the New York Times. Cbs news looks at the content of , particularlydump when it comes to issues over Hillary Clinton and her use of an email server. He wrote on march 6, 2015, the campaign was still preoccupied the Justice Department was proposing to publish clintons work related emails in january. Another email, this from the er for American Progress that is from cbs news. The tone of campaign 2016. Richard in baltimore, maryland. Years, ivey 60 felt theres always been contention in these elections. On aountry was founded progressiven liberals who wanted to form a new country and people who wanted the status quo. Is we see people that we normally wouldnt see their identity quite so easy. Ory are White Supremacists extreme liberals. They show their colors more quickly and their voices are much more amplified. Host steve is up next. Steve lives in South Carolina. Supporter of a thirdparty candidate. Caller the campaign is just deplorable. Its disgusting. If theres ever an election cycle that is underscoring the need for a thirdparty candidate, its this one. We should be ashamed that the two prime parties have offered up these candidates to run for the president of the United States of america. As far as republicans go, donald trump is trashy. Its hard to blame people for pulling their support for this man. Democrats are very strong, they are like family. A tape could service with Hillary Clinton saying urface of Hillary Clinton saying to somebody i had my way with a small boy in the woods last week and not one congressman or governor would pull their support. Thats the difference in the two parties. The republicans have a big problem. There are 34 senate seats coming up for grabs. Its time for a strong, honorable thirdparty candidate. I will be voting for the constitution party. Conscience. Y i know South Carolina is going to be read. Is going to be red. , look at howhio they go and that will be the winner. Host the New York Times looks at early swing voters they highlight florida and North Carolina. Democrats are requesting more absentee ballots in florida than they were at this point in 2012. , democrats arena requesting ballots in larger in 2012. Han republican participation is declining. Caller good morning. Im going to vote for jill stein. I like her ideas and im sick of wars and the u. S. Selling weapons. I also believe in the environment. Simple,ne possible positive, quick comment. Im sure many other people do also. There are many poor countries in the world. Katie, which is like haiti, which is in dire straits. We discard millions of plastic soap containers a year. If these containers were designed like legos, could withstand heat, they could be snapped together to construct ousing in these areas of poverty. I like people that are going to be positive and stop all this destruction. Thats why im voting for jill stein. Host we will continue on your calls on the tone of campaign 2016. Number thatt represents you. A Court Decision yesterday looks at the operation of the Consumer FinancialProtection Bureau and takes a look at its leadership. Joining us on the phone to talk about it is Lydia Wheeler with the hill. Can you start with how they are currently headed up . What did the court have to say about it . Is headed up by by the, he was appointed president to head this independent agency in 2013. Foru. S. Court of appeals the d c circuit ruled the way it is set up now is unconstitutional. Congress made a mistake by creating a farreaching agency led by a single director. It should have had a number of commissioners and a board of directors to keep it in check. Host why was the current structure set up in the first place . Guest that was a decision that congress made. Frankgency came out of. Dodd frank financial reform. There are other agencies like the Treasury Department, but the Treasury Department has to report to the president and follow the president s directives. No, the court says you have to act more like the Treasury Department. You have to be governed by the president and the government can supervise you and remove your director at will. If the organization is declared unconstitutional, does it have to stop operations . Guest absolutely not. This does not impact the operations of cfpb. Rolling out its rules and taking enforcement action. This is a tweak of how the agency should be run. It does threaten its current director. In, itresident comes gives the new president the power to get rid of richard, even if he wants to finish out his fiveyear term. Thesethe cfpb actions would be voided . Guest that is something you may see. People come in and challenge actions theyve already taken against companies claiming they are unconstitutional. Now, the agencies under the supervision of the president , you might not see those challenges. What was the reaction from the white house . Guest the white house said this is a tweak and it does not change cfpb. They dont seem too concerned about it. Said that thisn agency is her brainchild, said we are going to appeal this decision and it will get overturned. That is an option that cfpb has. They can ask the d. C. Circuit for a full review of its decision by its full roster of judges. Or, they can appeal to the Supreme Court. Host who brought up the lawsuit in the first place . Guest phh corp, a new jersey Mortgage Lender that took the agency to court after cfpb fined it for allegedly accepting kickbacks from mortgage insurers. Takeaction pushed them to the agency to court. And argue something republicans have long been arguing, that cfpb is unconstitutional. Lydia wheeler is the federal regulations reporter for the hill. Thank you for your time. Guest thank you for having me. Host we are getting your thoughts on the tone of campaign 2016. If you want to give us your sense of what youre seeing or perceiving about it, let us know on the phone line. Charles from bethesda, maryland come a supporter of Hillary Clinton. Caller its messy, definitely messy. Most of the mess has to do with the republicans. The infighting between themselves. Trumps base does not want to except the fact that america has changed. Accept the fact that america has changed. Their kids dont understand why they are supposed to hate black and brown or be scared of black and brown. When most of trumps supporters said if he gets elected, they , thats why canada this campaign is so messy. Its mostly because of the republican infighting. Host lets hear from jj in florida. Good morning. Caller good morning. Thank you for taking my call. I dont really like the tone of , but what i am very concerned with his christians in the United States, the email that came out, it was on the keli file last night, about the way hillary and one of her it was really about catholic people, religious people taking the christian right away if Hillary Clinton gets in there, they will try to keep us christians, Catholic Christians come any kind of religion, they are going way overboard with it. We will lose our right to speak and god blesss america and thank you for taking my call. Host greg is up next in jacksonville, florida. Caller im a 37 year watcher of cspan. Independent, but im supporting Hillary Clinton. I lost interest in the whole president ial election process in 2000 with gore and bush. , im reallytopic concerned for a number of reasons. We have not had this kind of dissension in the country since the initial beginning of the civil war. The commentary by the young lady last night during one of campaign isces frightening. His supporters would lean more , that kindurrection of hatred that came at a time back in 1860. Its a terrible time for the country. Wasprevious two callers right on point, the country is changing. A good deal of americans have had issues with that. We are in trouble. We have a particular candidate that has accused the media of theg rigged, has accused election of being rigged. That is a very dangerous person. Sometimes in the media, they say someone has gone beyond the line this is resembling something that happened in germany in 1933 with the discussion that mr. Trump has and the recalcitrance of the has that he has, i hope people look at the lesser of two evils and try to get mrs. Clinton in office. Host link in connecticut, a thirdparty supporter. Caller thank you for cspan. Far as the tone of the campaign for 2016 come i think it is indicative of a great deal of unbridled unrest that has permeated the entire lexicon of american ideology. What we are seeing here is the culmination of what i believe to anxiety,ys worth of angst, rage and attack in some, particularly between the northern sensibility and southern sensibility coming to a great head. It is showcasing itself in the fashion of both Major Political parties. Extolling and showcasing outright contempt for its baseline voter in the form of the democrats
