donny: on donny deutsch. john: and i'm john heilemann. with "with all due respect," i think we found our winter. -- our winner. >> i feel very confident clean kershaw is a great pitcher. too many sticks. john: have too many sticks all right. donny: we have a couple of big sticks including donny deutsch of new york city. only two fridays left before the finale of the presidential contest. again, republicans are going

into the weekend beat up and more convinced the race is over. since tom all caps off sabotaged his final debate -- since donald trump saw sabotaged his final debate, the attempt to clean up the mess made it worse. last night, trump made history in gotham city, the first candidate ever to get booed at the catholic charities dinner. today at a rally north carolina, he took a rare swipe at hillary clinton's most beloved surrogate, first lady michelle obama. that is a no-no. he also said he will be happy with the way he ran his campaign win or lose. known,trump: i will have win, lose, or draw, and i am will sure if the people come out, we will win. but i will be happy with myself. trump's singing the

old frank sinatra tune, "i did it my way." his prospecting to be getting more dire by the day. a new poll shows him with a narrow lead in the red state, 44/42%, effectively a statistical tie. michael steele is reportedly saying he will not vote for his party's nominee, adding a bunch of harsh language about trump in that. given the way trump has acted the last couple of days and the growing sense of doom in his party, what should republicans do over the course of these last 18 days before the election? donny: other than cry? i have to quote chuck todd about the al smith dinner. trump is the first one to lose the dinner. stunning. he is a conundrum for the republicans. they only have one play. if you are the r.n.c., you're trying to get swing voters,

moderate voters, independent voters. avid trump an supporter is an avid trump supporter. number two, an avid hillary hater is a lot of people. some people are voting for hillary clinton. that is the play. the overall stance is we need to protect the fort. let's stop hillary clinton one way or the other. this way, you don't disenfranchise the trump zealots and it is a way to get some of those people who are going to vote for hillary so begrudgingly, even the 69% of people who do not like her will vote for her, give them permission to say we will stop her in a different way. somehow get that message out. you keep the candidates clean and gets the message out. john: i think there is one way to get the message out. we are starting to see it already. in new hampshire, the chamber of ad that iss got an

explicitly saying elect kelly ayotte in new hampshire to keep a balance on hillary clinton as president. it does not say we are giving up on the presidency were accepting hillary clinton will win, but i think that is the first of what will be a substantial number of ads like that where outside groups who are acknowledging clinton will win will try desperately to keep hold of the senate majority by making that argument explicitly. saying this is the last, best hope we have to stop the clinton agenda. let's focus down ballot and vote as a counter check to her. forget about donald trump. don't repudiate him but also don't talk about him. donny: it makes sense because many people are not voting for her. they are voting against trump. i think that will be a sound strategy. i know a lot of people that would play along with that game.

press isiated reporting hillary clinton's campaign is preparing for a scenario in which donald trump refuses to concede the election if he loses. that scenario would complicate a crucial transition for the campaign as well as for the country that has been divided over this election. with increasing speculation trump might challenge the integrity of the election, what happens next if he refuses to acknowledge a clinton victory? john: a huge amount hinges on how close the outcome is. if hillary clinton wins by a lot, it will be hard for donald trump to not concede. if hillary clinton only wins by , you can imagine the scenario in which donald trump, as he has suggested over the last week, decides not to concede. it is smart for the clinton campaign to be thinking about that. it is smart to be thinking about the message they would want to put out. if that is the way donald trump goes, and i'm not talking about

recounts, if donald trump refuses to concede and it is clear she has won, he will go down in history even more ignominiously as someone who does not respect american democracy. donny: i think he will go down in history next to joe mccarthy as one of the true nefarious characters in american history. donald trump is stealing the election from us. i was watching tv with my daughter. trump was talking about the elections. i did not want her first conversation to be about whether elections can be rigged. that is the scorched earth he will leave behind. what he said is true. i will be happy whatever what happens but i will leave these of them my wake, one being half of the country not believing our elections are fundamental bedrock of our democracy are real and believable. it is disgusting. is reprehensible -- it is reprehensible.

who does he think he is? just go away. you are vile. john: my hope is if hillary clinton wins by a decisive margin that donald trump will maybe for the first time in the campaign realize he has responsibilities not just to himself and his followers. he also has responsibly's to the system, the country. i don't know if he will find his way. i hope for all of our sakes, he does is that circumstance arises. it is time for our daily wikileaks update. the group put out a tweet that seemed to suggest there may be a surprise for tim kaine and donna brazil. so far, that has been a squib. there were other new emails getting noticed today. one was from houma aberdeen who suggested hillary clinton solicited a $12 million commitment from the king of morocco in exchange for hoping

-- hosting a 2015 meeting. another message appears to be from a clinton eight who reportedly complained about bill clinton not having to sign a conflict of interest document even though he is paid by foundation sponsors and gets many expensive gifts from them. the clinton campaign has long cited federal officials who say the russian government is behind the mill hack. david tsonga has a new piece up sanger has a new piece saying if she wins, she will enter the white house with the most openly hostile relationship with russia since the cold war. this seems like a big deal. we have been focused on the short-term impact of wikileaks. but my question for you is, the government is convinced russia is behind this. i'm talking to national security officials. they say russia is behind this whole thing. hillary clinton believes it. what are the invocation of

long-term for u.s./russia relations if she becomes president? gave asteve schmidt passionate speech about this is the first active cyber war. i think this is going to be a benefit to hillary clinton. the best way to get a constituency together is a common enemy. mitt romney was right. this is our big geopolitical enemy at this point. i think hillary clinton will come out swinging. face anda vladimir putin. i think hillary clinton will use this and other things like ukraine and the missile buildup, she will use this because it is a common enemy and that is the best way to get groups together. i think this will play to her benefit. john: one of the craziest things about this campaign is the way donald trump has cozied up to if no otherin reason than he is unpopular in america.

his approval rating is below 10%. in aever want to start off supremely hostile situation with one of the great powers in the world. i think hillary clinton is making these arguments about putin now is not just to try to do credit the wikileaks thing, she is also trying to lay down -- cast him and make clear what he has tried to do in the election, which is to intervene in the electoral process so she has the political constituency behind her to do what she needs to do to deal with russia. next, things get nasty. we will talk about the latest meme in presidential politics after this. ♪

hillary clinton: payroll contribution will go up, as luke donald -- as will donald. we went to replenish the trust fund. john: says that moment in wednesday's debate, donald trump's nasty woman, it has taken on the quality of a meme, inspiring t-shirts and buttons and catching on like wildfire on social media among women of all generations. it is putting other republicans on the spot as well. today on fox news, the republican punishment was asked about trump's choice of words and defended his nominee. sometimes a lady needs to be told when she is being nasty. ok. we are joined by stephanie schriock, president of emily's list. hillary clinton in the debate did a couple of things that

could have residents with women. she has defended abortion rights. she went after donald trump as a sexual predator. seems toy meme caught on more than anything. why do you think that is? >> i think we watched that debate and saw an incredibly strong leader in hillary clinton. and right at the end, you heard this. even for me, and i watch all of this. i am a junkie of politics. i even felt a little bit like it was a sucker punch at the end. i think for some many women, for so many of us around the country, we have been in that room when some unqualified guy says something snarky or tries to belittle us right at the end. it is just like enough is enough. i think that is why it has caught the attention because it went to our gut.

we are seeing it all over. the energy of women of all ages, young women, older women, across-the-board i like, that is it. hillary clinton is the most qualified. we are proud to stand by her. she deserves to be president, and we are not going to take it anymore. i think that is what you're seeing all over social media and will see on election day. even in early voting, we are seeing that now. inny: i felt that moment -- know the media has gone in the elections. but ibut i was stunned at that. there was such a misogynistic tone. how did a man and woman go at each other on stage? hillary after being told she has hate in her heart and needs to be locked up, she has never responded with belligerence. i think they have done research and said a lot of men do not want to see a woman harshly respond to the man, so she was very disciplined.

on the flipside, women did not want to see that kind of harsh response. i think that was not in line with the sexual assaults but on the same path of a basic dislike for women. it was like a little jab. >> it was heard around the country. right in the gut. even personally. things so many offensive from the first day he announced his candidacy. he has said things that shocked me that they. when i heard that at the debate, i knew it instantly that this was going to be a moment. seven out of 10 women already dislike him. this is someone who has bragged about sexual assault. we are already there. this was like the extra bit of -- we shifted into high gear. now it is like we have got to get this done. we have to make sure we vote,

that we talked to our sisters and brothers and husbands and entire family and say enough is enough. this is the time to end this. i think that is that little bit for women using that term "nasty" and the way he did it, it really did catch fire. ignited fire maybe. john: i want to clarify i believe what donny was saying when he called it a jab was what hillary clinton said about donald trump's taxes was a jab and trump overreacted just so you are clear. i don't think he was saying what trump said was a little job. -- jab. just to defend donny. donny: i feel the love even though we are not together. john: one of the things that is powerful to me about this is the way in which it is resonant with me in which times that are often -- groups that are disseminated against embrace terms used against them. there was a time when gays and

lesbians adopted the term queer in a defiant way when they heard homophobes calling them queer, they took it up as a badge of honor. that feels like what is happening among younger women who have taken to this quickly. they are like, you want to call me nasty? you are right i am nasty. >> you're seeing it all over social media. even at emily's list where we have a campaign going incredibly well called "women can stop outp," you saw the logo go and it was "nasty women can stop trump." there's something about that. when you hear initially, it is so painful that you have two choices. you can crumble underneath it or stand up and be proud and prove that person wrong. i think that is what we are seeing women across the country doing. we are going to stand up. donny: to that point, i think women will rise up.

watching trump, i think a lot of guys are saying this, i am saying this. maybe it is time for a woman to take over. it has not gone so bad. i think it has been a male with the worst male behavior we have ever seen. whenever the polls are showing with women, it will be that and then some. . they have had it. i think a lot of men are saying let's give the lady a chance. >> i'm glad to hear you say that. it is way beyond time for us to finally crack through that glass ceiling. we have in hillary clinton someone who stood on that debate stage with grace and grit to say i am prepared to do this. i thought during the entire debate, forget about the last moments, but the entire debate almost an evolution, another step toward really becoming the

leader of the free world. i was so inspired by her performance. and then her ability to stand and smile and say you can say whatever you're going to say, donald trump. we have all been around donald trumps like that. it does not matter. the stakes are too high and we will stay focused. i think it is an inspiration to women across the country as well. john: stephanie schriock, thank you for being on the show. next, we will have some of the business. we will talk to the pollster monkey, john cohen, when we come back. ♪

miss: i just want to say i

john and the studio because he defends me and i love him. with us is john cohen from surveymonkey. we have been talking for months about a narrow electoral path for donald trump. how narrow is that right now? >> it is extraordinarily narrow right now and has closed a lot in the last six weeks since the debates. they did not help him nationally and is not helping him in the states. he has a very narrow path goes through the midwest. clinton is now contesting in places trump should not be defending like arizona and texas. john: john heilemann here. i have been looking at your polling over the last month. i know you look at it all the time. we just finished the big three debates. some think they were masterful performances by hillary clinton and moved the needle in terms of how the election is being fought on the ground. the impact of the tapes donald

trump had to suffer from and the acquisitions -- accusations, what has been the effect of all the stuff that is happened? >> is collateral damage to the trump campaign. on the democratic side, democrats have become increasingly supportive of clinton just like you would expect in the closing weeks of a campaign. that has not happened on the republican side. republicans are staying at the level of support they've had for the last six weeks. this is a big missed opportunity for him. in part because of the damage he has done to himself by the tapes and reaction to them. donny: let's talk about a potential wave. what is the tipping point as far as the popular vote electoral vote where it starts to take a toll down ballot? let's start with new hampshire. >> new hampshire, we have the democrats ahead in the senate and governor's races. we see a lot of closely contested ones from north carolina to arizona. it is really close.

your last segment was about female voters. they really will tip the balance in all the states. the gender gap is as big as we have seen. when you combine that with the education gap, you have white women with college degrees going incredibly for democratic candidates. that puts lots of southern states in flight not only for clinton but also for the senate candidates. the democrats are in a good position. not as good as clinton is in terms of winning the white house but they do have a shot of taking over the senate. john: i hear from republican pollsters doing private polling that they are sort of freaking out right now. right now, she is up by about six. if she got up to eight or nine, the senate would be gone for sure for the republicans. the house might be in jeopardy. what do you see in your numbers in terms of the likelihood of democrats retaking the senate and house? >> in our national polling, we

are right at the six number. we have been as high as nine and 10 and as low as one but not for a long time. clinton's lead has been steady nationally. there are no signs it has gone up substantially over the last month despite the damage to the trump campaign reported. she has not increased the lead to medically. -- dramatically. it will come down to using proceeds of close races -- idiosyncrasies of close races and the turnout of female voters. donny: give me the electoral numbers. does she get near 400? >> we her solidly above 270. when we talk about how narrow his path is, it is very narrow or nonexistent. she has a shot in the mid 300's, but i doubt she will get to 400 and less only millennials vote. donny: coming up, we will show you the ohio interview trump walked out of yesterday.

wednesday night were donald trump said he would not necessarily abide by the election result, some said that was a political crisis for him. the next day he came out a speech and doubled down on it. so, how do you think donald trump is handling this particular moment? he's handling it terribly. he needs to stop with this nonsense. he has at least moved from there's a national conspiracy. but he's got to move off of these contested elections. in states like florida and ohio there's an automatic recount if it's a. he should get back on track, get on his message, it's the only time he has an really effective within the polls. let's go past the election

let's say the mantle is handed to hillary on a non-conspiracy level and typical, peaceful passage of power, what would be her first key things in her first 100 days during the transition? >> hillary clinton, a key thing for her would be to reach out to republicans, reach out to independents, and demonstrate, show she is very serious about trying to bring everyone together. >> obviously she has to reach across. give me a specific thing she could do, a tactic. >> i will give you to tactics. sit down withld donald trump very early. she said to him last night, we are all going to have to work together. she could call donald trump, sit down with him, talk to him. that would be a dramatic thing. the second thing she could do is actually go to capitol hill and

michelle obama's approval rating would be in the mid-70's. are they enough together? and it's very personal for them. we've never seen a president and first lady out on the campaign trail or incumbents as they have been for an incoming potential president. are they enough to galvanize as much of an african-american turnout as we need? if you had to send one out, who would you send out at this point? thehe second question is easier question, i would probably send out michelle obama. she's always been beloved in black communities across the country for a variety of reasons of the two she seems to be really effective on the campaign trail. as for the first question, it is certainly not enough but it won't hurt. fact that you have the president with his favorability and michelle obama with her effectiveness on the campaign

many of them were supporters of bernie sanders and many of them heard her counterargument to his initial recommendation around these issues. she said that they weren't doable, that these issues weren't practical, that bernie sanders was naive. there's a sense in which they don't believe she's coming to these issues with full faith. i think there's also a deep skepticism about the current two -- two-party system. millenials are active and they are making rational choices and i think there are generally dissatisfied with the current political climate. there is a new study out, gen chicago,university of breaking dawn millennials of color and what they see in the data is that although there is skepticism, black millennials are braking towards hillary clinton.

it is still couched in a general skepticism about whether or not she's really committed to these issues. they know if she gets in office, they are questioning whether she gets in office will she even pursue these issues. i want to ask you a question in a broad sense. we have finished these three debates. all of the massively rated. million in the third one. there was a i want to ask you an in a broad discussion about criminal justice issues and a little bit about race. that, don't think the topics was broached for the rest of the debates. if you are an african-american man or woman of any age, watching those three debates in america, your takeaway is what? only int's not visibility, but disposability. what made the second debate -- what made the second debate more egregious was that they were at washington university in st.

louis, 15 minutes down the street from ferguson. hillary clinton didn't even broach the subject and she could have, particularly when the question was asked, could donald trump govern all of america. have seen iswe that there's a kind of confusion on the part of the clinton campaign. on the one hand they seek to activate the obama coalition. take thoseo constituencies, get them excited and motivated to go out and win. on the other hand, they want to activate the coalition that elected bill clinton. me was predicated on triangulation. taking black voters for granted. it seems that that confusion is evident, has been evidenced over the worst of this campaign -- course of this campaign and in the debaes as well. as an african-american voter, i was pretty upset as i was watching. let me take that answer to

that question and loop it back to the first answer you gave to donny. if i were running for president and i was a democrat and had michelle obama and barack obama on my side, i would have them out there every day i could given their popularity and skills as performers. if i were to ask the american voters in a swing or battleground state and i felt that the job of getting me excited was being outsourced by the clinton campaign to the black president and black first lady, i might think that was a little condescending. am i wrong to think that? some may feel that way, john. i think more than anything, african-american voters what to confront candidates who are seriously thinking about issues that are confronting their communities. you can send surrogate after surrogate. it can be barack obama, michelle obama, bernie sanders. it could even be usher or chris

washington post." inocrats seem to be ahead most important respects. in my right to think that is something that if i were a republican looking at everything else going on in the world, this would just be another cause for deep concern? >> you could call it the icing on the cake or a symptom of the larger problem. one of the things happening now is that hillary clinton and the democratic already -- party had twice as much money on hand as republicans and donald trump heading into his last final months before election day. my anyway you measure it, that is not helpful. if you look at how they are spending their money, you also see the democrats have a huge advantage, especially on the ground and in the air. hillary clinton's campaign spent $66 million last month just on ads, three times as much as donald trump. she has 815 paid staff.

he had 168. the numbers really show the huge difference in infrastructure. donald trump has had a horrific three weeks, by any historical standards in terms of the stories he's been dealing with, the controversy he's been immersed in. hillary clinton is massively outspending him. although she has a demonstrable lead nationally, six points according to the polling averagses, it's not a runaway yet. the director of surveymonkey said he doesn't see a landslide. why is that? >> it's clear we had seen this dynamic since the beginning of this election cycle. an incredibly polarized electorate. there were people who made up their mind very early on about both these candidates, and they just are not going to be launched. this election is coming down to fighting over those less little

slices of demographic that for whatever reason have not made up their mind. morethink we saw volatility posts labor day then we took the lead do. that's in part because there's also not great affinity for these candidates. while there is a lot of animus on both sides, people have doubts about their own candidate and they are able to be swayed. we have seen it going back-and-forth enough at the margins, not the huge sweep in one direction or another. >> i want to do our daily wiki update. every day something trips out. today it's about a $12 million donation. on of the reasons none of this is getting traction is because donald steals it every day. even if donald was behaving like a normal candidate, it doesn't feel like any of his stuff is sticking. matea: we have spent quite a bit of time looking through the e-mails that are being released,

there's just not a headline there, there's not a sound bite their. -- there. what would be that soundbite, the kind of thing a republican would be drooling to see in an e-mail? matea: at this point it's very hard to speculate about hypotheticals about what would be in their but would garner headlines straight i don't think it's helpful for her to have this constant press of stories about the political calculations that her strategists were making and trying to figure out how to make decisions on ttp, for example. it doesn't help her with her labor allies, with the business community. there's no question this is not helpful. i don't think we have any indication we will see any wrongdoing in these emails. a lot of it is filling in the gaps of the story that we have seen clay out over the last almost 2 years now. john: i want to bring our conversation to an end in the last minute we have together,
