But let me tell you about something. Im against jews or anybody else who puts the interests of some other place over our own country. Not opposed to all jews. Something said, actually said in a Senate Debate stage in the year 2016. Todays louisiana Senate Debate took place in an empty auditorium at a historically black college called Dillard University in new orleans. Students at dillard protested. There arent arrests. Some people were reportedly pepper sprayed by University Police as they tried to protest outside the debate hall. But inside david duke assured us all he is not against all jews. Happy 2016. That does it for us tonight. We will see you again tomorrow. Now its time for the last word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. Rachel, the debate was even worse than you presented. Were going to present i was going to use the word highlights. Were going to present excerpts of this debate, this david duke debate coming up. And he attached himself to
donald trump as if donald trump was his running mate. Donald trump really was his running mate in that room tonight. Thats to whom he credits his success in the senate race this far. Absolutely. Thank you, rachel. We will bring you those excerpts from the ugliest debate of the year. This makes the donald trump performances look elegant compared to david duke. But first, how republicans in the Battleground States can stop donald trump. We have six days. Six days. Time enough to tell your family you love them and make your peace with god. Were going to pretend were down. Were down. Pretend, right . Its gotten more competitive. But Hillary Clinton is still over 270. She shouldnt be allowed to run. Imagine it is donald trump standing in front of our capital and taking the oath of office. He says hell be his own Foreign Policy adviser because he has a good brain. This is one sick puppy. If you vote for hillary, youre a grownup. Stupid people, stupid people. If you vote for trump, youre a sucker. Right. Thats so nice. He is very cavalier about using nuclear weapons. His rhetoric is off the wall on this topic. Its not actually. I think right here youre being delusional. No, im not. Im not being delusional. Its strange how over time what is crazy gets normalized. Anybody want to go swimming . Lets go. What are we thinking of doing here . Six days away. No side tracks, donald. Nice and easy. This is the last word on campaign 2016. Tonight in many Battleground States across the country, the voters who are standing between donald trump and the presidency are republican never trump voters. The Never Trump Movement was left for dead by the political
republican early voters in florida are voting for Hillary Clinton. That is the only Tracking Survey with actual early Voting Results in florida. The only one. That same survey combined with likely voter Election Day Polling predicts that Hillary Clinton will win 48 of the vote in florida to Donald Trumps 40 . That winning margin would obviously contain a very large republican vote against donald trump. Hillary clinton is campaigning in arizona tonight where at this point, four years ago, president obama didnt have a chance against mitt romney, who won arizona with a 9point margin over president obama. A new cnn poll shows donald trump only five points ahead of Hillary Clinton in arizona, with donald trump at 49. Hillary clinton at 44. That same poll shows john mccain 13 points ahead of his
democratic challenger Ann Kirkpatrick. With john mccain at 54 and Ann Kirkpatrick at 41. So about 5 of the people who are voting for john mccain for senate are also voting for Hillary Clinton for president. The Clinton Campaign announced today its almost doubling their Television Ad buy in arizona, spending over a Million Dollars in just the last week. The Clinton Campaign has 33 Field Offices in arizona that will be working to get out the vote. The Trump Campaign is not making a similar effort in arizona. Arizona republic reporter dano wiki told the Washington Post trump doesnt have much of a ground operation. And it seems like trump isnt interested in investing money here. Trump mostly is relying on personal appearances and earned media there is a similar Polling Problem for donald trump in wisconsin. In wisconsin, a new marquette poll out today shows hillary
katie, its hard to think about where this campaign would be tonight without a Never Trump Movement among republicans. Well, one of the reasons so many of us oppose trump in the primary, lawrence, is we really thought donald trump would be the weakest republican candidate in a general election. And i think were seeing that play out. Were seeing Hillary Clinton having, you know, a horrible closing week on this campaign and still donald trump isnt able to close the deal because he is viewed by so many independent and soft Republican Voters, and even some really hard Republican Voters who view him as appalling and unacceptable. And i think if any of the other candidates had prevailed, they would be winning this thing in a landslide. Lets listen to donald trump in Florida Today where in the middle of his speech, he starts talking to himself. And then, of course, says Hillary Clinton is unhinged. Lets watch this. Republicans well, all republicans. I dont know anybody that is undecided really at this point that is not a republican. But have i talked to people who were kind of on the fence. And this whole thing with clinton has kind of reinforced, you know, 20 years of hatred that has built up against Hillary Clinton. And there are people that are feeling like, well, im going to hold my nose. I dont like donald trump. But im going to hold my nose because Hillary Clinton is just so corrupt. The problem for trump is that he was only at about 79 of Republican Voters two weeks ago. And he needs to be at like 94 or 95 of Republican Voters if he is going to be competitive. Mitt romney had 93 of Republican Voters and still lost the election. I dont think donald trump can close that gap. Particularly among republican women. Weve seen in poll after poll after poll where he is underperforming with republicans. Its largely among republican women. And it may just be that
he is terrible. He is everything you say about him. But at least he is not Hillary Clinton. And katie is right. The fact that he cannot close the deal at this point is really a sign of his disadvantages. Because you can certainly imagine that any other republican given the events of last week, given the obamacare, the emails, the anticlinton sensibility out there that any other republican would be closing and sealing the deal. I dont think he is going to be able to do it. Lets listen to Hillary Clinton tonight talking about donald trump. The thing that is so shocking to me is no matter who you are, what your background is, if you dont fit into a very narrow category of people that he can relate to, then somehow you dont have a part in trumps america. That really bothers me. Katie, thats her message in nevada tonight. Yeah. And i think that as charlie mentioned, there are a lot of groups that feel that one of the reasons that i think women have pulled away from trump from early on is this sense that if you dont look like a Victorias Secret super model, you dont have any value as a woman. If you arent sort of a wealthy White American like donald trump, then youre a loser. Youre a failure. And you dont fit in trumps america. I sort of agree with that sentiment. And i dont think thats a democrat sentiment. I think its a sentiment that a lot of people are feeling when they hear the rhetoric from Donald Trumps mouth and they hear what many of his supporters are saying. And i think its troubling. All right. Were going to have to leave there it. Take a break. Charlie sykes, thank you very much for joining us tonight. We really appreciate it. Katie, were going to need you for another discussion coming up. Next we have breaking news from louisiana. The Senate Debate there is a debate unlike anything you have ever seen on a political stage. White supremacist david duke was
on that stage. I cant repeat the things he said on that stage. Well be right back with some excerpts from that debate. Were getting outnumber and outvoted in our own nation.

former Klu Klux Klan leader david duke is running for senate in louisiana with donald trump as his running mate. The only man the media hate morse than donald trump is me. They hate trump and me because they oppose the massive immigration that will destroy america. Weve got to protect american jobs and industry. We defend our heritage. Trump even says we should say Merry Christmas instead of the pc garbage. The media says he sounds like me. But you know what . We both simply sound like you. Vote for trump for president. David duke pour the u. S. Senate, and lets take america back. David duke was on stage for United StatesSenate Debate tonight. At Dillard University, a historically black university. David duke reached the 5 Polling Threshold for being included in the debate by getting 5. 1 in the polls. Debate organizers did not allow students the general public, or journalists anyone into that
auditorium for the debate. But protests gathered outside to protest david dukes presence. Here is what happened when the moderator tried to get david duke to respond to a question about taxes. Would you not interrupt me and give me my time look, youre not one of the debaters here. Im sorry, mr. Snell. Gave me a chance and youre interrupting me. Ill let you rebut, sir. Federal prosecutors said see, youre not a moderator. Youre a typical media were going to move on. Mr. Flemming, go ahead. Your time. Youre going to silence me . Youre going to prevent me from answering this question . Id like you to answer the question. Thats the problem in this country. The media is deciding who our candidates are no, sir, no, sir. Youre a hypocrite. Mr. Flemming you have the floor. I was going to answer the question if you gave me the chance. You didnt give me the chance. Mr. Flemming has the floor. The truth is anybody who stands up in this country tells the truth what is happening to
our country, were losing our country. Anybody who does that is going to be a target of the media just like donald trump. All right. We have to move on. Watch what is happening to donald trump. Joining us now, david corn, the Washington Bureau chief from mother jones and jonathan capehart, an opinion writer for the Washington Post and an msnbc contributor. He is also host of a new podcast called cape up. Well, jonathan, it strikes me as no surprise that david duke is basically declaring that his running mate is donald trump. Right. Not at all a surprise. I mean, what donald trump has done is taken the david duke message, blown it out of uisiana and put it not only on the National Stage for people to talk about and consider, but turned it into the nomination, the republican nomination for president. And so david because david duke had someone out there spouting his beliefs with a National Mega phone, he decided
hey, let me come out of retirement and run for senate. If you think the benghazi committees might have been a little bit out of control, listen to david duke tonight talking about Hillary Clinton. Look at trump and the neo cons. We have a cabal in this government that literally controls our Foreign Policy. Syria is a country with 3 million christians. Syria is a secular government, nonjihadist. It was just admitted by clinton that our government has been supporting saudi arabia which she admits was supporting isis. The lady should be getting the Electric Chair being charged for treason. David corn, i cant even think of a question. Well, you know, what donald trump has done is normalize a little kinder, gentler version of david dukism. Trumpism is very much like dukism. Look at what he has done. He gave a speech recently in
which he railed against the conspiracy of international bankers. That used to be code word for jewish people. Donald trump said we should keep muslims out of this country. This arch bigotry in which david duke and the kkk supremacists are all for. Paul ryan, the number one republican, elected republican in the land said that donald trump was making racist comments when he called a federal judge a mexican because his parents came from mexico. So you have racism, bigotry, and hints of antisemitism, all in things that donald trump has said during this campaign. So its no wonder that david duke said huh, i see an opportunity here. Donald trumps lock her up, she should be in jail to david duke translates to she shoul be getting the Electric Chair. Well, dont forget that some of trumps key supporters have called for Hillary Clinton to be killed and barack obama too. Lets listen to david duke talking about jewish people. Im not opposed to all jews. I think there is a lot of great there are a lot of jew is honor. Let me tell you something, im against jews or anybody else that puts the interest of some other place and some other country over our own country that is controlling and dominating the media which is teaching black people and inspiring black people to hate white people and inciting them to violence like the black lives matter. Your time has expired. Thats my issue. Jonathan capehart, that has been his issue for a long time. Yes. Its like the golden oldies with david duke. Back to his original play list. I mean, look, the idea that he got 5. 1 in a poll that allowed him to be on that stage, and to spout so much rage, so much venom says a lot about where the country hopefully isnt going,
where the Republican Party seems to be, where its nominee has made it possible for someone like david duke, who we all thought had gone off, slithered off and taken his hate with him elsewher figured that it was fine to pop back up. I watched parts of the debate, not the entire debate. Because there is only so much rage and hate i can deal with in any one day. But the idea that this man has a platform and he is standing on the stage with other people who very well might be infinitely more capable to be a senator from the great state of louisiana, the fact that he is sharing the stage with them is really i mean, its lawrence, im almost at a loss for words here what this means for the country. And the Trump Campaign has had some real screaming antisemites in its audience and at its rallies. Lets look at this guy at a
trump event yesterday in miami. A trump supporter yelling at protesters yesterday and the press, yelling at the media yesterday. Lets listen to this. Youre an embarrassment to your profession. Youre an embarrassment. You sell out for a few shekels. For a few shekel, you sell out. David corn, you sell out for a few shekels. Thats a trump supporter. And there was a trump supporter shouting jew su at the media event a couple days back. What we see with david duke here, though, there is an extremism within the Republican Base itself. Some polls show a Majority View of republicans believed in the Birther Conspiracy which i would call a racist notion, believed in the muslim ban, which i would call an act of bigotry. And also believed that obama is not a christian. He is a muslim. Partly because he is black. There is the Republican Party has played footsie. Donald trump is exploiting it if not encouraging it. Duke, while he sat 5 , the fact that these other notions are Majority Position within the Republi
