There you go. Thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. Thats it for special report, fair, balanced and unafraid. We have got you covered here at the Democratic National convention. Continuing coverage now. Greta goes on the record. Donald trump here tonight on the record and you are looking live at the floor at the 2016 National Convention. Donald trump will be here in just moments. But, first, i must note this is a his foxbusiness. Com night in american politics. Secretary Hillary Clinton will become the first woman to accept the nomination for president for a Major Political party. Were going to go to the floor in just minutes. But, first, donald trump is taking heat for suggesting that the russians should find secretary Hillary Clintons missing emails. He said he was being sarcastic. You will hear from him straight ahead. Here is him at a News Conference that just wrapped up. I have been watching these speeches at night, and, boy am i getting hit. Oh, oh. [ laughter ] i am getting hit and they dont mean it and there is a lot of lies being telling you about i guess they have to do their thing i guess they have to do their thing. I will say, this we had a tremendously successful convention in cleveland. Cleveland was amazing. Cleveland was amazing. And they call it a bounce, but we had a bounce like very few people have a bounce. All i know is im leading in the polls. We are leading in all of these polls. [cheers and applause] and were going it make America Great again. But i watched last night, were going to make america better than ever before. Believe me. But i watched last night they are not talking about the real world. They are not talking about radical islamic terrorism. They are not talking about borders where people just pour across they are not
talking about the kind of crime we have in this nation. They are not talking about the fact that many people in our country are making less money today in terms of real wages than they were making 18 years ago. They are not talking about that. [cheers and applause] they are not talking about the fact that our jobs are leaving our country. That our jobs are pouring in to mexico and other countries. They dont talk about that. They dont talk about all of the problems we have. And donald trump joins us live right now. Nice to talk to you, donald. Hello, greta. Donald, the Intelligence Briefings are going to begin for both you and secretary clinton very soon. The democrats have issued dire warnings saying that you should not have classified information. In fact, senator harry reid had said that they should give you fake information. The white house says you will get the regular briefing by the dni just like secretary clinton. But your thoughts that democrats saying you should
not have these Intelligence Briefings . Well, i will tell you what my thoughts are. I said yesterday, long before they even thought of it. I said that she shouldnt get it. Deleted 33,000 emails you saw what the fbi said she was negligent. I have never seen a report like that. She was negligent and she lied. She lied. I said yesterday she shouldnt be allow to do get briefings. She should absolutely not be allow to do get briefings, because anything she gets she has a phony server. What she has done is incredible. When they say that they are copying what i have been saying for a period of time right now. Since i read the report. You made reference to 30 or 33,000 emails that were deleted. You made a reference yesterday saying something to the effect that encouraging the russians to try to go look for those 33,000 emails if they have it you now say that is a joke. Is that buyers remorse. I was being obviously, Everybody Knows i was being sarcastic when i said it. But where are those emails . I mean why did she delete those emails and how did she get away with it obviously i was being sarcastic and a lot of people really smiled and laughed. It was said in a carcass stick manner obviously. I looked at the cameras. Tremendous number of press. It was in florida. And everybody sort of chuckled. And what it was, it was being sarcastic because how can anybody be talking about anything, greta, when you look at what she has done and how she has abused the system with her server, with the deletion of all of this information and these emails. And, i mean, you have to be sarcastic when you see Something Like that happen. We have not spoken since you gave your acceptance speech for the Republican Party. Your critics have called it dark and i thought how do you describe . Would you describe it as Something Different . And was it meant to be inspirational. Everybody using same temperature. When people use the same word. Naturally it looks like they all read each other. Most people liked it in fact, there was 75 approval rating, which was extraordinary high done by one of your competing networks in terms of the speech. I got really rave reviews on the speech. The haters, yeah, they said it was dark. I say it wasnt dark. It was optimistic. I viewed that as hope. I viewed that as optimism because i talk about the problem which president obama didnt want to talk about last night. He didnt talk about radical islamic terrorism. He didnt talk about the problems that this country has with borders and with trade, where we are losing 800 billion a year in terms of trade deficits. You take a look at our trade numbers are horrendous. Take a look at the main numbers. Our jobs are leaving our country. They are moving to mexico
and other places. People are being fired. You just take a look. I mean, you have to talk about if you are talking about our country, you have to talk about the good and the bad. He didnt want to talk about all of the problems. Our real Unemployment Rate is astronomical. People have given up looking for jobs, greta. You know that better than anybody. You report on it as much as anybody. They are sitting home. They gave up and now they are considered employed. So we have a lot of problems with our country. But i view it not as dark. I view it as i state the fact and then i say were going to fix it. I think it was very optimistic. Thats what i wanted to portrayed and most people saw it that way. If secretary clinton were willing to give up the transcripts from her Goldman Sachs and other wall street speeches, would you be willing to give up or surrender or let the media see your tax returns and if not, at least not for the years not currently in audit . One thing, i dont think the transcripts dont mean very much to me. What really means something are the 33,000 emails that she deleted. Thats what i think she should be giving up. She should find out there is a way of finding emails. And i have always heard that when you are in, you know, whether its litigation or otherwise, its virtually impossible to get rid of emails, to delete emails and to make them permanently gone. I would be very interested, but not with transcripts, im not interested in her transcripts. Im much more interested in her emails. Now, with that being said, youre the one that said recently and i have used your name a couple of times that if i had a client who was under a routine order by audit by the irs, i wouldnt let him go public until the audit is over. You said that on your show and you were speaking then not as a great and talented anchor but you were as a lawyer. And somebody that knows what they are talking about. But you said yourself if you were a lawyer you wouldnt do it. I said as a lawyer for the years in audit, absolutely. Now, let me be a political person or a media person. For the years at least not in audit, because there are certainly years not in audit, to give sort of a general idea, and sort of call off the dogs and the people who are after your tax returns to look at them, why not release those that are not in audit even if they go back a number of years. I dont have that much pressure, i will be honest. People dont care about it. Certain people in the media i have had very little pressure. I remember with mitt romney four years ago. Everybody wanted his is a peanut compared to mine. Its like a peanut. Very small. Not nearly as big a document. Mine, you saw the picture where its 2 or 3 feet high. Now, they finally got it in september. He decided to give it. And they found a couple of little minor things. Little things that didnt mean anything. He did nothing wrong. By the way, mitt romney did nothing wrong. But when they gave them. They found a couple of little sentences. If you remember harry reid lied about it he told a dirty lie. And mitt gave that and after he gave it, they found a
little sentence and they made such a big deal. He might have lost the election over that. All right did you watch president obamas speech last night and your critique of it . I thought his speech was good. I thought it was well delivered but i dont think he said whats going on with the country. He didnt talk about radical islamic terrorism. He didnt talk about the problems. He didnt talk about the fact that people right now, that people 18 years ago were making more money in real wages than they are making today and enemy cases they are now working harder and two jobs. He didnt lay out the facts. He laid out just a rose picture. He didnt lay out whats really happening in our country. He didnt talk about our borders. He didnt talk about thousands of people coming in from syria. We have no idea who they are, what theyre. And what kind of damage will be inflicted. You look at whats going on in france and germany and other places, he didnt talk about that. You know, its november is just around the corner and no matter what happens, i think always in
november the country tries to come together whoever is elected. Let me ask you a couple of soft questions. Is it at least sort of fun for you because ivanka introduced you. Tonight Chelsea Clinton who we saw grow up is going to introduce her mother. Is it fun for you to watch that or not . I would really look forward to watching it. And i will tell you, ivanka has a lot of respect for Chelsea Clinton. She really likes her but she has a lot of respect for Chelsea Clinton and im sure chelsea would do a very good job. Fun to watch all the children of the candidates. One last question, leader pelosi says she doesnt think anyone should vote for a candidate because of gender. That was leader pelosi here last night. In light of that, stepping aside, i realize you are running against secretary clinton. Something sort of your thoughts and the fact its a rather historic night tonight because a woman will be nominated formally to accept the nomination to be head of party. I know you want to beat her in november. Any remarks on the historic impact. You are going to have a woman. Wrong woman. Look at her track record dismal with libya and all the mistakes she has made. Look at the report issued last week by the fbi. Its a scasser. Said she lied. Thee veally put our country at risk with the server. You look at all of the things that are happening, i just dont know frankly how a person like this would be electable. Now, with that being said, some day and i dont think it will be in the very distant future you will absolutely have a woman be president and i look forward to that. Donald, thank you very much for joining us. Thank you very much, greta. And back here in philly, tonight is the night, secretary Hillary Clinton will formally tell her Democratic Party that, yes, she will accept their nomination for president. Just as for donald trump last week in cleveland, this speech may be the most important speech she has ever given. Lets go down to the Convention Floor where its buzzing. Cohost of americas newsroom Martha Maccallum is there. Martha . Hello, greta. Good evening to you. Obviously a lot of excitement here. Especially in that this is the night that she will accept that nomination. Im told that she is going
to try to keep her emotions in check. That she is very excited about tonight. We know that Chelsea Clinton said it will be almost overwhelming moment for her to be standing there watching her mother have this moment and having children witness this big moment as well. A lot of buttons out there tonight. Madam president with her profile on them. If she wins, we win. Those kind of sentiments expressed on stickers and buttons down here. But you were just talking to donald trump about the issue of whether or not he presented a dark vision of the future. And there is some discussion that we may see Hillary Clinton, you know, the president last night talked about the shiny city on the hill and obviously a reference to Ronald Reagans vision for america. But we may see Hillary Clinton give us a little bit more of a dose of realism. An understanding. Anxiety that people face in the country. She may try to take some of that territory from donald trump in accepting that we need, perhaps, more law and order, more safety in our
streets a at home. Expect a Law Enforcement presence out there tonight as well, greta, to show that hillary stands with them as well. She is trying to present herself as a sober alternative to someone who she sees as not fit for the job. She has covered a lot of bases here in the past few days, the hispanics, with women, all of that important. But those people are largely in her corner, according to the polls. She is now reaching out to the middle to tell people that she is an alternative choice for those who may consider donald trump. Thats going to be the tussle for those voters, greta, and that argument will begin in ernest this evening. Back to you, greta. That are that thank you. We will check back with you later. Much of the talk this week has been about the shocking dnc hack. The content of the hacked emails exposed and antibernie sanders bias within the dnc. Last years sanders has been claiming the system was rigged against him. Not the only one making that claim that the system was
rigged here is former 2016 president ial candidate governor Martin Omalley in september of 2015. Do you believe the process has been rigged . I do. By the Party Leaders for Hillary Clinton . I think its i think you are sore press to do say leaders. Im told that this is the prerogative of the chair. And there is always an inclination, i think, for old relationships to kind of circle the wagons and protected one another. Thats not what our party is about. Tell the viewers hot chair is . The chair is debbie wassermanschultz. Governor omalley is here to go on the record. Nice to see you, governor. Good to be with you, greta. I know you are a loyal democrat. You have endorsed secretary Hillary Clinton. Going back to that september sound bite. You had a lot of hope at the time those debates, for instance, if they had been scheduled on different nights and different maybe more of them might have had a little bit of an impact on you. Might have had. I made that objection at the time. As a challenger who was virtually unknown, we were really counting on having as many debates in prime time as the republican candidates were having. And when the debate schedule was limited like that, that clearly hurt my odds of succeeding and our partys competition for the nomination whats concerned me more today is that the dnc has been broken into, burglarized if you will by likely a foreign power, namely the putin regime. And that i think, should concern all of us. What im surprised about, i havent heard anything about is the rnc have better security or they Vice President gotten around to releasing rnc emails . I cant figure out why we are only hearing one party. Because it serves putins interests to have a president like donald trump. You think thats why . I do. I mean, look, we have donald trump who i just listen to do on your program, is unprecedented as a candidate in modern times to say that he wants to pull back from nato. I think Ronald Reagan would
be rolling over in his grave if he listens to the way donald trump off and ons over and says praises Vladimir Putin as a strong leader. Secretary rumsfeld told me that he and im a little fearful because i might get it a little bit wrong that back a number of years that he sent a memo to then president bush saying that people in nato need to pay their fair share so to speak and make their payments. I always thought i understood what donald trump want to do do is make other nations, whether its a good idea or bad idea who had committed to making certain payments to nato that they step up. We should do that. I mean, we should ask that everybody do their fair share. But thats different from saying that we should pull back from nato. Talk about doing your fair share. How about Donald Trumps fair share when it comes to paying taxes. Greta, i have probably. We dont know what he is paying. We have no idea. I will make you a a dollars bet. I bet there were years i paid more in taxes than donald trump paid. What do you think . Without the tax returns, i dont think either one of us know. I revealed my taxes and i ran as probably the poorest man with more college debt than anybody who ever ran for president. But every candidate has even Richard Nixon when he had some years under audit he still revealed his taxes. Donald trump thinks he is beyond these rules. I put this on the same level as secretary clintons speeches. Those transcripts. In fact i think you asked for those transcripts. Did i. Why wont she reveal those . I dont know. I think she should as well. This is what i think is outrage just is donald trump has not revealed his tax returns. Everyone who has ever run for president reveals their tax returns. This is the other nexus, donald trump has been so black balled in terms of being able to get loans for his serial bankruptcy businesses, if you want to call serial bankruptcies Good Business h
