This is helping millions of people decide who were going to elect as the next president. All right now on Fox News Sunday. Hello again from fox news in las vegas. We are live on the strip here at the mgm grand hotel just down the road from unlv, the site of wednesdays final debate between donald trump and Hillary Clinton, moderated by our very own Chris Wallace, who is busy preparing today. As the candidates also prepare, both campaigns are in damage control as donald trump continues to face allegations of groping women and new wikileaks emails show troubling insights about Hillary Clintons top associates. Today well discuss it all with both Vice President ial nominees. Well get to senator tim kaine in just a moment. But we begin with Donald Trumps running mate, indiana governor mike pence. Governor, welcome back to Fox News Sunday. Good to be with you, brett. Governor, theres a new poll out this morning, a Washington Post abc poll, and it shows the race essentially tied, within the margin of error. Its four points. If you look at it, its exactly the same as it was before the convention. I want top get your state of the race and considering that some states, republican states like utah, arizona, georgia, even your own state of indiana, according to some polls, are very tight. What is happening out there . I think whats happening is this is a highly contested election, and its going to be fought all the way to the finish. I couldnt be more proud to be Standing Shoulder to shoulder with donald trump as he articulates an agenda to make America Great again. I have to tell you the crowds that i saw across florida, the crowds that gathered with donald trump yesterday in New Hampshire and maine are all just determined to bring real change to this country, brett. Look, the last 7 1 2 years have weakened americas place in the world, stifled americas economy, and begun to walk away from our most cherished constitutional principles. As donald trump did last sunday night in the debate, were going to continue to frame this Campaign Around the issues that matter most to the American People, and i think thats why the polls are close and i think thats why weve got a great, great opportunity for a great victory come november the 8th. Governor, donald trump has not let up. Hes campaigning all the time. He does it in his own trump way. But yesterday he said something that did raise some eyebrows. Take a listen. We should take a drug test prior because i dont know whats going on with her. But at the beginning of her last debate, she was all pumped up at the beginning, and at the end it was like, oh, take me down. She could barely reach her car. Governor, do you think secretary clinton should take a drug test before wednesday . Well, look, all i know for sure is that donald trump is going to be ready for the debate on wednesday night. The American People are going to see someone who is prepared to lead this country, prepared to bring the kind of strength and determination that its going to require to really turn this country around. Look, more than seven out of ten americans know our country is headed in the wrong direction. Donald trump has articulated a message of strength, a message of rebuilding our military, reviving our economy, not through the tax increases that Hillary Clinton is advocating, expanding obamacare, and open borders policies that she actually advocated in a speech in brazil, but through the kind of policies that have always revived americas strength at home and abroad. So im looking forward to the debate, and i know hell be ready for it come wednesday. All right. Drug test or not, i want to ask you some specific policy questions in just a minute. I know youve answered these questions about the accusations. Theres a new one out today. Now nine women with these allegations. I know youve said that theyre politically motivated and theyre all not true. But i want to ask you two things about the way donald trump has talked about them and pushed back, pushed back hard, denying them, saying on numerous occasions, how could this be true, look at her. Have you talked to your daughter about that defense and this whole issue . How do you explain that . Well, let me just say that i thought it was right and proper last weekend for donald trump to apologize for the offensive comments that he made in a video that was released 11 years ago on an open microphone. He said he was embarrassed. He apologized to his family, apologized to the American People. Frankly, you know, the timing of these unub stand shated claims, all of which donald trump has category denied, is i think deeply troubling to all americans. Theres counter evidence coming out right now, and more information will probably come. But the American People are very, very troubled. Once again, here we are in an election of such enormous magnitude in the life of this nation, and once again, the media is piling on with unsubstantiated claims as the headlines while they ignore an avalanche of hard evidence about corruption, pay to play, political favoritism emanating out of Hillary Clintons years as secretary of state. We found out this week, brett, that while she was secretary of state, her officials in that department actually directed reconstruction contracts in haiti to friends of the clintons. This is precisely the kind of pay to play politics she said wasnt happening as their foundation accepted tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments. Just this morning the New York Times is reporting that in exchange for a fiveminute meeting, the government of qatar pledged 1 million to the Clinton Foundation. The American People are tired of all of this, and frankly, theyre very tired, present company excepted, theyre tired of the media going after unsubstantiated allegations that donald trump has categorically denied while they willfully ignore an avalanche of hard evidence about clintons scandals. Well, about the wikileaks emails, and weve been covering the substance of those extensively, but are you concerned at all about the fact that russia, according to u. S. Intelligence officials, has hacked into these computers and is, according to the intel officials, trying to influence this election in one way or another . Well, i think theres no question that the evidence continues to point in that direction, and we should follow it where it leads. And there should be severe consequences to russia or any sovereign nation that is compromising the privacy or the security of the United States of america. Donald trump more than a month ago gathered a group of some of the leading cybersecurity experts in this country and announced our plans to strengthen the security of this country on the internet. We will do that. Is the cyber attack my hope is that as the Vice President said on another network this morning, that there would be consequences. My hope is this administration will follow through with that because the president of france just this weekend said that the obama administrations Foreign Policy that Hillary Clinton created of moving red lines in syria actually was interpreted as a weak position for america and emboldened russia to invade ukraine and make a much larger role in syria. Weve got to follow through on our word, and we ought to follow the fact where is they go. We got to protect the cybersecurity of this country. My hope is this administration will follow through this time. I want to squeeze in two more questions quickly. Iranian backed Houthi Rebels firing on u. S. Navy ships. The u. S. , despite firing cruise missiles back at these satellite installations. What would you recommend as Vice President , if its president trump, the u. S. Military do . Should the navy expand these strikes, or is there some fear of iran being drawn into a war there . The United States that i i have navy and the United States of america cannot tolerate aggressive action against our warships, but its important to remember that the militia in yemen thats firing those missiles has been supported by iran. This administration, with Hillary Clintons full assent, just delivered 150 billion that the iranians said they were putting in their defense budget. It could well be some of that 150 billion, including 1. 7 billion in cash, made its way to yemen and is subsidizing these very attack against u. S. Naval warships. Weve got to rebuild our military. We have the smallest United States navy since 1916. We have the smallest Standing Army since the end of world war ii. When donald trump becomes president of the United States of america, were going to rebuild our military, and were going to stand tall on the world stage and were not going to tolerate aggression against American Forces or american interests, whether it comes from yemen or is subsidized from any other country like iran. Governor pence, just a few seconds left. What advice would you give your nominee for wednesdays debate . Im sorry, i didnt hear that. What advice would you give your nominee for wednesdays debate . Quickly. Well, i would just tell him be himself again. I thought in the first two debates, donald trump brought that authentic voice that has really given voice to the aspirations and frustrations of millions of americans on a national stage. He clearly won the debate last sunday night because he was talking about the issues that matter most to the American People, restoring our military, standing tall in the world again, reviving this economy, creating jobs, upholding the constitution and the Supreme Court of the United States. I understand why many in the national media, present company excepted, want to talk about Everything Else except the issues. Donald trump won that debate last sunday, and hes going to win the debate on wednesday because hes going to keep talking about the issues that matter most to the American People and the chance that we can make a change of the fundamental direction of the this country back to a stronger and more prosperous nation. Governor pence, we appreciate your time. Thank you for coming on. Thank you, brett. As Hillary Clinton takes time off the trail to prepare for the debate, there are plenty of Unanswered Questions about the newly released wikileaks emails surrounding her campaign. We spoke earlier this morning with Vice President ial democratic nominee virginia senator tim kaine. Senator, thanks for being here. I want to put up the latest poll from Washington Post abc. It is essentially exactly where this poll was before the convention. 47 to 43. Judging from all the things that you and secretary clinton are saying on the trail about how unacceptable donald trump is, why do you think this poll is so close, within the margin of error, actually . Brett, yeah, it is close. Ill tell you, im used to this. Im from virginia. All of our races are close. Ive been saying from the beginning that i thought this would be a close election. So it doesnt particularly surprise me. We are seeing some data about voting, whether its registrations, early voting, and request for absentee ballots in key battleground states that we like. But im down in south florida campaigning yesterday and today because florida is close and theres so many other close states. We have to assume thats the case, and i think itll be the case right up to the end. Senator, a lot of information is coming out, as you know, in these wikileaks emails, including some pretty embarrassing things from communication in the clinton staff and campaign. Are you comfortable with what is has been said in some of those emails about catholics, about latinos, governor richardson a needy latino, about former naacp leader b, taking h to be powerless. What are your reactions and the substance of those emails . Yeah, brett, before i get to specifics, i want to talk about a couple of them, you know, we just got to be a little bit careful about these because since theyre part of an effort by both russia and wikileaks, and neither of those are kind of neutral transmitters of information, you cant just automatically assume that everything is on the up and up with these emails. Just as an example, theres one email that references me that is completely inaccurate. And whether its inaccurate because the send every didnt know what he or she was talking about or its been doctored, i dont know. I dont take all these at face value. But lets talk about the catholic one. Jen palmieri, who is catholic. Shes said, yeah, i sent that email,. I had some opinions and i shared them. But i do know what Hillary Clinton thinks about about catholicism because she picked a catholic running mate. We talked a lot about my background. Shes methodist but had a powerful experience as a young person that still drives her today in her own faith practice. So i know with respect to catholics, she views this as an asset because it creates a connection between us in terms of our approach to service. So look, some of these emails that are leaked, if theyre accurate, they show people offering, you know, opinions and mouthing off a little bit here and there. But thats the kind of thing that happens. But senator, theres more substantive things that raise questions about for example, the email investigation. Here is president obama talking about what he knew and when to cbs news. Take a listen. Mr. President , when did you first learn that Hillary Clinton used an email system outside the u. S. Government for official business while she was secretary of state . The same time everybody else learned it through news reports. Did you know about Hillary Clintons use of private email server . No. While she was secretary of state. No. At the same time, senator, he was using a pseudonym and an email address to communicate with secretary clinton. And theres communication and there are emails from staff that suggest they wanted to hold that back and were talking about what to do. Did the president lie there . Well, i dont know because i actually do not know if hes communicating by email with hillary, does he know its a private server . I dont exactly know if i send somebody an email exactly what their setup is. I dont really think about that much, and i cant imagine the president , with all thats on his mind would either. I do know this. There was an extensive, as you know, investigation by the fbi under the direction of a wonderful and tough career public servant, jim comey. Jim was in the u. S. Attorneys office in the Eastern District of virginia when i was the mayor of richmond. Hes somebody with the highest standards of integrity. And he reached a conclusion after a very long investigation that no reasonable prosecutor would take this to the next step. I think that still has not been effectively challenged. I know there are people who would like to relitigate that, but given the depth of that investigation and his own credibility, i think his conclusion, you know, probably gets it right. Understand that. But the campaign is focused on the russia angle. Definitely you talk to u. S. Intelligence officials, theyre very concerned about russia interfering. We ought to be. Thats clear. But at the same time, youre saying that while John Podestas gmail was hacked by russia, youre saying that Hillary Clintons server was completely ironclad and was not hacked at all. You mentioned director comey. Heres what he said about the private server. Im not looking to pick on gmail. Their security is actually pretty good. The weakness is in the individual users. But yes, gmail has fulltime security staff and thinks about patching and logging and protecting their systems in a way that was not the case here. So in other words, John Podestas gmail was less secure than Hillary Clintons server. Well, you know, jim comey also reached a conclusion through the fbi investigation that they didnt have any evidence that these materials had been compromised. I havent seen any evidence come out since he rendered that conclusion that would cause were not talking about some other shoe to drop in the next 20 days. Im not. Im not. Look, its very clear that both russia and wikileaks want to, you know, drop a few documents at a time to try to create a story. I think the marginal utility of each successive dump gets less and less. You know, out on the trail, so many people, they want to talk about jobs or how can america be safe in a dangerous and challenging world. They are worried about this russia angle though, brett, as you mentioned. At least in my lifetime, i cant think of a precedent of a foreign nation trying to destabilize an american election. You know, i brought up a couple weeks ago the watergate analogy of trying to destabilize an election by going in and grabbing files. This is current version of that watergate attac
