Thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. Thats it for the special report. Fair, balanced and unafraid. Greta goes on the record right now. Tonight, on the record, is the system rigid . The delegate system under a microscope as g. O. P. President ial frontrunner donald trump cries foul. At any moment donald trump will step in front of a microphone in al beanel, new york. On the record will take you inside and outside the trump rally. Right now, Trump Supporters are furious. They are on fire. They say their votes are being tossed aside. Even trump himself going off on what he called unfair rules. A bruising weekend for trump saw him lose all 35 of chorld delegates. Who won them . Senator ted cruz. This is a crooked system, folks. Were going to have a ton of delegates. Donald is going to have a ton of delegates and its going to be a battle in cleveland. Very possible that a lot of delegates have to vote
trump on the first ballot dont actually support him. The systems rigged. I see it i see it now orrr2ju game to win a delegate . Threats a fair game . Style. My not Donald Trumps style. But it is ted cruzs style. The first ballot will be the highest vote total donald trump receives and on a subsequent ballot were going to win the nomination. Get the second or third ballot, then they will abandon him and go for whoever. I have got millions more votes. Millions. There is a corrupt deal going on in this country and its not good. Its not good. And its not fair. And its not fair to you people. When you go to the convention and you see the tactics, they are not playing by the rules. Now, in response, donald has been yelling and screaming, all the characteristics i would note we would want of a commander in chief. Say i this to the rnc and party you are going to have a big problem, folks,
because there are people that dont lisuzgj whats going on first were congressman to endorse are collins goes on good evening, sir. With. You congressman, donald trump says its rigid, its corrupt. What do you think about whats going on in colorado and the delegate system . Well, you cant defend what just happened in colorado. Donald trump and a lot of us supporting donald trump are concerned about where this goes to the best thing we can do is starting next out of new york and then we are going to rock and roll in pennsylvania and new jersey. Best thing we can do frankly is getting him to 1237. Thats doable. But we all share the concern that the that the stement if you will is not happy with donald trump but the millions of people and outpouring of support of new york where i represent is unbelievable. Congressman, he says its
ritiond and corrupt. The rules were put out 20814 it seems to me that would have been a good time to say the rules are corrupt or rigged. His campaign did. Every campaign did. Am i wrong or did he not have a chance to look 3o q it over then . Well, but, greta, when it comes to the convention, the rules arent written. They are not going to write the rules. Im not talking about that but the rules in terms of what happened in colorado, just not talking about the convention but im talking about the way that colorado voted this weekend. That process. Donald trump says its rigid those who oppose him say they know as of november 1st what the rules were. Everybody got the rules and there was no objection by him or anyone else. We all knew what the rules were. The caucus state very different. Some primaries open. Some primaries closed. Some winner take all. Some proportional. So, yes, you are right. The rules were there and mr. Trump certainly had millions more votes than anyone else. He has got more delegates than both mr. Cruz and mr. Kasich combined or right at that number. We just need to go ahead and get to 12. 37. Thats the best thing we can do. Start with 59 delegates next tuesday in new york and get to 1237 so they are not going to be able, you know, call them shenanigans, within thearules, deprive him of the nomination. Is there any sen shenanigans or anything dishonest going on by the Kasich Campaign or Cruz Campaign to sort of pull delegates that should be Trump Delegates away from trump or people being seduced by anything special . Anything going on dirty to get delegates . No. I think this is the knockdown, dragout kind of
politics, bare knuckled politics that you would expect if you get to a contested convention. There is nothing surprising here its just been a long time since we had a contested convention. All is fair in politics or not fair in politics, we certainly know that in new york more than anywhere else. Thats why mr. Trump is adding people into his inner circle to help get our arms around the delegate situation because certainly 1237 we dont have a problem without 1237 thats where the games begin. Is the problem here for donald trump is that he didnt anticipate the i mean, he got beaten in the caucus state of iowa. Evidence got beaten in wisconsin, which there is a lot of reef tail politics there. He got beaten now this past weekend in colorado without having much of a ground game at all. He didnt even go out to speak to him. I mean, is that you know,
strategy . Not necessarily the voters dont want him but a Campaign Strategy thats giving him trouble tonight . Well, i mean, there is no question, someone like ted cruz has a massive ground game. He has been in this a very long time. Very skilled politician. And he has done well in the caucus states primarily because of the way caucuses work very different than primaries, mr. Trump has done best in the primaries where the showing up and casting a ballot as opposed4 to gathering in a gymnasium or otherwise. No, you have to give mr. Cruz all the credit in the world that he has a massive ground game and i think we all know mr. Trump does not. He is adding to it right now. There is a certain amount of catch up going on right now to get to the convention and certainly protect the delegates not only in the first round of voting but hopefully the second and third. We hope we dont even get there. Congressman, thank you, sir. Greta, always good to be with you. Thank you. The Colorado Republican Party taking a beating from both donald trump and his
supporters over its delegate process. Just a short time ago rnc chairperson Reince Priebus went on the record. Mr. Chairman, nice to see you, sir. Hey, thanks, greta. So that and that i understan, rules in colorado, those are created by the Colorado Republican Party. Is that correct . Thats right. Now, there is a big firestorm over whats going on in colorado and the way they chose. Donald trump says that its corrupt and rigged and you say, what . Will, its the same process they used, greta, four years ago, its no different. Some states use a primary system to bind delegates. Some states use a caucus system to bind delegates. And some states use a Convention System to bind delegates. So, i have a book in front of me that every candidate has state by state with the dates and whats happening. According to that prospect. A delegate has a contest in the precincts. Back a month ago. Then the delegates that win that go and have a contest in the counties and then delegates that win that have a contest at the congressional district. Then the delegates that win that go to a state convention. And so this isnt something this isnt something that happens one day. This is an organizational process that candidates have to be involved with from the very beginning no different than wyoming over the weekend picked Bernie Sanders at a convention. Its the same thing that happened four years ago. Except isnt there is a little bit of difference though because last august on the 25th they made the announcement they werent going to have the president ial preference straw poll . Doesnt that make a difference that that didnt happen . Not at all. Thats just a beauty contest. The straw poll is like the ames straw poll. Spend money to have a straw
poll that isnt a caucus. Each state has to submit their plan for releasing delegates by october 1st of 2015. That happened. And then the rnc released those plans to the whole world and all of the campaigns put it out on a website. We have got obviously there is another website called against facts dot. Org. There is nothing mysterious about this. All right. So since october 1, 2015, the rules havent changed and everybody has had notice essentially; is that correct . Well, absolutely. I mean, its a rule that each of the states he to do that thats why you said in august colorado came in and said were not going to do it were not going to have this beauty contest straw poll. Were just going to do the convention and thats what they did. The rules committee, which is going to be very important going into this cleveland convention. Who names the rules committee . So, each once the delegate pool is determined in a state then that delegate poll has an election. Theyll electricity a chairman two men and two women rules. One man and one woman to the Permanent Committee and credentials. They have elections for that. So do you have any role unns this rules committee . T do you or the rncal have any role in that in deciding who . The only role i get to appoint the chairman of the rules committee. I get to appoint the chairman of all the committees but i dont have a vote on the committee. The committee is made up of the delegates who win the slots. Another important point on the rules committee. The rules Committee Makes suggestions on rules, but the entire floor of delegates by majority rule either support the rules committees report or they
dont. Sounds to me whoever gets appointed chairman of the rules committee is yours worse enemy. Thats a toughxl job. Whoever has that job you are right. I will be looking to see how hate. Thank you. Mr. Chairman, thanks for joining us. This is a fox news alert. Donald trump is on stage right now in all bean, new york. This is trumps First Campaign event since calling the system rigid. Lets listen. Nobody has values like us the country loves new york. And when we took the worst attack in the history of our nation and we took that attack and we were strong and we were sharp and we were loving and we had heart sand rerebuilt downtown manhattan. Thousands of people were killed. And the police departments
and Fire Departments and everybody were so he so amazing. Thats what new york values really is and really represents. [cheers and applause] we all know that. [chanting] great. [chanting u. S. A. ] really good. Really good. So, our country, as you know, doesnt win anymore. Where have we won . We lose on trade. We lose with our military. We cant beat isis. We lose with our vets. We dont take care of them. We lose on education. Were like at the bottom of
the list. We lose in every conceivable way. Our healthcare is no good. Obamacare is a disaster. Were going to repeal it and replace it. [cheers and applause] of course, that is donald trump speaking in new yorks capital. We begin with on the record with griff jenkins. Jiff outside talking with Trump Supporters. [chanting] hi, greta, as you see behind me hey hey, ho ho, trump has got to go. They are very vocal here. And we have a little bit of, excuse me, if you dont mind, some interesting characters out here. There was this is a free speech area. There were proTrump Supporters here that were doing various things. And i dont know what this guy is doing. But we talked to several of those supporters going. In and here is what they had to say. Take a look. Are you supporting trump or are you going to hear him speak . Im going to hear him speak. I support trump because he aint afraid to say what he wants to say. All other politicians seem to be crooked. I just think is he going to make America Great again. Yeah. Trump, you have got to love him, dude. Im ticked like the rest of americans are. I feel donald trump is going to make America Great again. And i do feel he is treated unfairly. I do think he has great business ethic. I just dont know if he is the right candidate for us at this time. Im not a cruz fan. Im not a kasich fan. Im not a hillary fan. And im not a bernie fan. So its trump. Greta, i apologize to our viewers the interesting person running through this live shot. There are supporters out here there are protesters. And it3n is run Crazy Campaign season. We will continue to follow it from albany, thats what we have got outside. We will keep you posted if it changes. Greta . Griff, thank you. Fox News Senior National security john roberts is inside the arena. John . Good evening to you, greta. Donald trump was just going off on the media pretty much every one of these rallies, said that he saw reports tonight that he thoughtbiased one sided. Trump looking for a turn around moment tonight. More than 12,000 people here at the Times Union Center in downtown albany. Hoping to show the depth of his support here in new york state. Look at the latest fox news poll that came out over the weekend tremendous amount of support here. Beating tread cruz by almost 40 points. If he can get over 50 of all 27 congressional districts here in new york about thell walk away. System. Thats the only reason some reap the genius of the voters seas you know what . We will pick somebody else. We will pick one of these politicians thats totally bought and sold f by their special lobbyists. [crowd booing] a guy like cruz is an example. He didnt put onc9 his personal Financial Disclosure form that Million Dollars from Goldman Sachs and city bank. He doesnt put it he doesnt talk about it and he doesnt do it. And then he goal out and say i will stop the banks. You know, like he is robinhood. This is not robinhood. This is a wad bad guy. Lyin ted cruz. We call him lyin ted cruz for a reason. Is he a liar. And he misrepresents everything including ben carson, who is a great guy. Remember in iowa where ted cruz said ben carson has left the race during the election. And people said oh, he left the race, okay i will vote
for you, i like ben carson. Ben carson is a great guy who has never forgotten what happened to him by ted cruz. And ben carson endorsed me recently and we love having that endorsement. [cheers] but ben has never forgotten what took place. He was totally in the race. He was doing great. And ted cruz and his people and cruz knew all about it. And do you know what he does right after the race, right after the election, this is right after the electionrz,dn takes place he calls up and says i would like to apologize, i didnt know anything about it he knew everything about it. He is lyin ted cruz, folks. Remember this and he does not like new york and he does not like the people of new york. And that came out loud and clear. All you had to do was forget about his words. Lets go back to john roberts who is inside that arena. John . Freted, donald trump
hammering on ted cruz here. Polls. Hitting on what he said in that South Carolina debate back in january about new york values. Donald trump doubled down on that over the weekend when he went to visit the 9 11 museum, very subtle shot at ted cruz. Hoping if he can get all 95 delegates can he get back on track after a bad couple of weeks. Majority of the delegates before the convention. He knows if he doesnt, greta, he is going to run into difficulty at that convention. We all know what he said what happened in colorado as well. Trying to foster a lot of distrust among supporters in the current political systematically when it comes to the way the did he goes are selected at the state conventions. Greta . John, thank you. We will continue to monitor that donald trump rally for news. And senator Bernie Sanders on a hot streak and continue in secretary clintons home state of new york. Weave have brand new polls next. Also, donald trump is live in al beanel new york as you know. We will go back there live when trump battles what he calls an unfair process. Thats coming up. U] 1ny jake reese, day to feel alive jake reese, day to feel alive
its how you stay connected. With centurylink as your trusted technology partner, you get an industry leading Broadband Network and cloud and hosting services. Centurylink. Your link to whats next. Senator Bernie Sanders is headed to the primary with a streak he has won seven of the last 8 democratic contests. A new poll of likely democratic primary voters has secretary Hillary Clinton clobbering sanders. Hillary clinton in the lead with 51 . Bernie sanders sits 12 points behind at 39 . 9 right now say they have no candidate preference. Senator sanders trying to keep winning streak alive with a brand new ad aimed at new yorkers. Values forged in new york. Brooklynborn native son. Who knows what we know, were all in this together. Not to be outdone. Secretary clinton also launching a new york senate ad. Donald trump says we can against wbr id wbr14018 each other. Its wrong and goes against everything new york and america stand for. With so much at stake she is the one tough enough to stop trump. The on the record Political Panel is here rick klein and daily beast jackie kucinich. Jackie, 9 of the voters, likely democratic voters still undecided. Yeah, i feel like its like when you are at the end of the election cycle and independents still Vice President decided wbr id wbr14318 who are these people . Sure enough they do exist and showing up in that poll. The interesting thing is Bernie Sanders has b
consistently had trouble with more diverse populations in states that are more diverse and were seeing that reflected again in new york. It looks like at least at poll is 53 on the pressure there. The pressure is on Bernie Sanders. A lot is made about his winning streak and hillary needs to bounce back. He has a gap among voter groups, delegates overall votes it is his home state, his native state. Win there that would send a serious message to the Democratic Party right now and start to make up
