4:00 pm
who know snzs? >> lou arand paul spent three d here in new hampshire. he spent those days criticizing you. >> rand paul you have to understand is a disaster in the polls. he is a disaster on military and defense. he is getting decimated by everybody. and other than giving him a lot of money for an eye center at his request -- he asked me, could i have money? i said, absolutely. i thought it was worthwhile. i gave him a lot of money for an eye center, which is hypocritical when you think of it. but other than giving him a tremendous amount of money for his eye center, which i'm happy about, frankly, because i'm sure they do good work, i hope they do good work, he is doing so badly that he figures he has to attack trump because i'm leading by a lot everywhere. i don't mind. i think he's -- he is never going to make it. never going to make it.
4:01 pm
can't make it. got the wrong message. i mean, this is not a time to be weak on dense. okay? i'm the opposite. i want to make our military so strong, so powerful, so great that nobody is going to mess with us. i want to take care of our vets who are treated like third-class citizens. you know, two weeks ago on wednesday, our vets, as you know -- you probably reported on it, because you have a big problem here with vets that are not taken care of properly. our vets had the longest wait in the history of the v.a., waiting for doctors in rooms. they wait four, five, six days. in one case, they waited five days and the doctor said, sorry, i'm going on vacation now. so our politicians all talk, no action. they're all the same. our politicians have let the vets down. rand paul has let the vets down. he has let the vets down. you know, i don't blame him.
4:02 pm
he is doing so poorly in the polls. i've been attacks by perry of texas. he went like a rocket shship. i was attacked by lindsey graham. he had two points. now he has zero. rand paul has very few points. but i think he's going down, too. i will say one further thing about rand paul. rand paul is using the people of kentucky. either run for senate and do a good job or run for president. you don't run for president and -- if i don't make it, i will become your senator reluctantly. if i were somebody -- a good, strong republican from kentucky, i would run against him in a heartbeat. you would win. the people of kentucky are being used by rand paul. think of it. they're saying is, oh, if he doesn't make it, we will take him. the people of kentucky should get a senator that wants to
4:03 pm
represent them, not a senator where it's a backup plan. if i was in kentucky, i would run against him. believe me, i would win. yes. hi. >> i understand you care about vets. >> i'm glad about that. i work as a veterans claims advocate. the problem i have with them is that it takes over three years to process one claim. >> unbelievable. it takes over three years to process one veteran's claim. >> do you think the v.a. has run out of money to help them? >> no. i think they have run out of competence. it starts with our senators and our congressmen and our president. i run things properly. what i run runs properly. one of the things i will do is take care of our veterans. it's going to be very important. you are a perfect example when you say three years to process a claim that should take 24 hours. yes, ma'am. >> on a lighter note, boston mayor marty walsh has challenged
4:04 pm
you to take the ice bucket challenge. is that something you will do. >> he's a clown. i don't know who he is. he spends all this time and effort and money on an olympic bid and then he goes out and -- he is talking about ice bucket challenges. get a real mayor. he came out and he was strongly against -- when we had the original problem with -- when i was misquoted. now everybody apologizapologize. illegal immigration, i don't like trump's statements. i turned out to be right. you have had massive crime. you had beautiful kate in san francisco and so many others, even three days ago a 63-year-old woman -- in fact 66-year-old woman was raped, sodomized and tortured by an illegal immigrant. they caught him. it's just disgraceful what's going on. so i brought up -- i'm so proud of it. i brought up -- i took a lot of heat that first week, week and a half. a lot of heat.
4:05 pm
they called it incoming from you people, incoming. now so many people have apologized to me. it has become a main stay of everybody's campaign. the problem is they don't know what to do about it. i do. i know how to solve the problem. it starts with building a wall. believe me. >> governor baker said that some of your recent comments were reprehensible about women. >> i don't think he said that. let me tell you something. jeb bush said that on women's health issues that he won't fund them. he apologizapologized. are you okay? jeb bush said that on women's health issues, he won't fund them. who whose phone is that? you ready? third time. ready? jeb bush said that on women's wealth issues, he won't fund them. then he said, i misspoke. i'm so sorry. i cherish women.
4:06 pm
women will be taken care of better with a president trump than anybody else republican or democrat. anybody else. and you can look at my company. i have many women executives. they make in many cases more money, because the second question, how many do you have, many. i will be introducing them over a period of time, too. they are unbelievable executives. they are paid almost -- i think they are paid more. we're studying it right now. they are phenomenal. they are incredibly talented. even years ago, in charge of major construction projects. i've had women in charge, which years ago was unheard of. so i've been way out in front. governor baker should only dream about doing for women what i've done and what i will do. on the women's health issue, i will -- there will be nobody better than donald trump. it might be more. you know what it means? whatever it takes. yes, ma'am.
4:07 pm
>> bernie sanders has -- >> bernie sanders has gained a lot of traction. they're looking for real change obama said they're looking for change. look what we got. we got change. but they're looking for something different than what they have. you know, bernie sanders is not going to end up being the standard. but he and i are getting the biggest crowds. look at the crowd tonight. other people have 51 people, 54 people. we have 2,500 people and 1,000 people or more than that are standing outside listening to microphones. and loudspeakers. so we have had tremendous growth. i had 15,000 in phoenix. we had -- every crowd is a record crowd. every crowd is sold out. he has done the same thing on the other side with a very different philosophy, to put it mildly. >> rand paul has come out with this ad that sort of strings
4:08 pm
together comments about healthcare and single payer healthcare and supporting hillary clinton. how concerned -- you said your positions have evolved. how concerned are you that people are going to -- >> i don't think so. look, i bet a net worth of more than $10 billion. i've been a world class businessman. all over the world i build. i have some of the great assets of the world. i don't say that in a bragging way. that's the thinking that our country needs to take our jobs back from china and japan and mexico and clean up the border, by the way, speaking of mexico. that's the kind of thinking we need to take back our jobs, bring back our money, bring back our manufacturing. you take a look at china, what they have done. they have taken our money, our jobs, our base, our manufacturing. and we owe them $1.4 trillion. that's like a magic act. they have taken everything and we owe them money. you know, we owe right now china
4:09 pm
$1.4 trillion. it's like a magic act. they get everything and we owe them money. not the other way around. because we're led by people that don't have a clue. honestly, i think we're led by stupid people. i don't think they're bad people. you know, it used to be they said it's so bad it has to be they're bad people. i think they're very stupid people. our leaders don't have a clue. they're incompetent. china is a great example. i met with carl icahn, one of the great business people. i had dinner with him two nights ago. i said, carl, if i do this, i'm going to put you in charge of china and i'm going to add in japan. you know what? everything will be just fine for us. going to be just fine. we have people negotiating for us that -- they have no idea what they're doing. they're not even business people. remember this, bush and hillary and -- they have a lot of money. they raised a lot of money from my friends. i contributed to everybody.
4:10 pm
they're always there for me. but that's not good for the country. that's not good as a system. but jeb has raised $114 million, approximately. everybody that puts money up for jeb bush, it's like he is a puppet. he is totally controlled by these people. jeb bush is controlled by the people that put up the money. and so are the other candidates. i don't want money from people. other than small donations, because i have so many people -- one woman sent $7. i love that where they invest in my campaign. they invest. i don't want that for the money. i want that because psychologically i think it's great. but jeb bush has $114 million. what's he going do with it? he will hit me with ads. at some point he has to. he's going down the tubes. there's no energy. when jeb and hillary and all of these other candidates start
4:11 pm
spending money, remember this, that money was given by people that have total control over them. those people, many of whom i know very well, they don't care about him, they don't care about the color of his hair, they don't care anything about him. they don't care about the country in many cases. they only want whatever they want. they will get plenty. yes, sir. >> many of people who have contributed, we don't flow who they ar they are. >> they should release the names of the donors. we should be more open, talking about campaign finance. if somebody contributes a lot of money, we should know who those people are. >> citizens united, did you think that was a bad decision? >> it's not a great decision for me. they are friends of mine. because i'm putting up my own money. here you have other people putting up money into other campaigns where they will have total control. 100% they will have control of
4:12 pm
those people that are running for office. one of the reasons i've done so well in the polls is because everybody knows i'm not going to be controlled. i'm going to do what's right for the country. no lobbyists. i know them all. i've hired many of them over the years. they're very good. but when they give a million dollars or $5 million to jeb bush, they have total control over him. he will do like a puppet whatever they say. with me, there's none of that. >> would you push for legislation to change that? >> i love the idea of campaign finance reform. one of the things you should do is everybody should be known. if somebody gives a million or 2 million or 5 million it should be known. and i will tell you this nonsense with pacs where they have millions of dollars raised, a hundred million dollars raised and they don't coordinate with the other people. i mean, bush puts his best friend in there. they don't talk. you are not allowed to talk. do you believe that that doesn't happen? okay. they're not allowed to talk. okay? they play golf on saturday, but
4:13 pm
they don't talk about the $100 million and where they're going to invest. come on. we're not babies. it's a shame. it's a disgrace. what i would like to see is if you put money up, you can put money into either or both. do whatever you want. there has to be transparency. you have to know where the money is coming from. that would help. >> what about limits? >> limits, okay. >> what about al gore running, have you heard about that? >> i would love to have -- i think the concept of a woman running with me would be fabulous. too soon to say. it's too soon to say. well, i think that they will be probably involved at some point, because there's a lot of pressure on hillary right now. it has been brutal. it has been brutal for hillary. i think at some point she's perhaps not going to be able to run. that seems to be the thinking by so many. i was saying that two months
4:14 pm
ago. everyone thought, you are not right. it looks to me like what they have done -- this is top secret stuff. general petraeus, his life was destroyed with a tiny fraction of what she's done. it's very unfair to him if they're going ing ting to dest doing by comparison nothing, i think she has bigger problems than running for office. >> last question. >> we will do two more questions. go ahead. >> giving donations is bad for the country. does that mean when you were giving donations, you were doing something bad for the country? >> i think the concept of donations should be people should know who they are and who is contributing. i would rather see that. don't forget, while i'm friends with citizens united and i like them and i like the head of it -- i think he's a great guy. but to me that doesn't help me. i'm spending my own money.
4:15 pm
okay? on a personal basis, i don't love it. i think there should be better transparency. i think when the money comes in, you should be able to do what you want. that's what they do anyway. everybody does it, unfortunately, not us because i'm not doing it. but these candidates are doing it illegally. because they're telling the people that are running the pacs what to do. if anybody thinks they're not, they're children. >> you are headed to the iowa state fair next week -- >> i will be doing jury duty on monday morning. i knew you would ask me that question. i will be doing jury duty on monday morning in new york city. >> criminal court or district court? >> i don't know. it's one of the courts. >> are you looking forward to it? >> yeah. i think it's fine. it's going to be rolled out soon. thank you very much. i will see you. are we giving helicopter rides? i think so. to the kids.
4:16 pm
i don't think it's going to be hillary. we will find out soon. thank you. good evening. i'm kate baldwin in for erin burnett. you were just listening to donald trump speaking to reporters in new hampshire. he is also about to continue speaking and address a crowd of supporters there. we will take you there live when he takes the stage. voters are telling us that they want specifics. in a new interview tonight, trump says that they are going to have to wait a little longer. he told this to the washington post. my immigration paper, my tax paper, they're done. but i don't want to do them in -- i don't want to do them in august. i will wait until september when everyone is back, in all fairness. we just heard a whole lot from donald trump. the topics were all over the map from helicopter rides to isis and a lot of attacks on jeb bush. what do the folks inside there want to hear from him tonight?
4:17 pm
>> reporter: kate, i can tell you that there is resounding consensus among many of the people we talked to tonight, they say they need specifics before they can make up their mind about donald trump. one man openly admitting that he is just -- he came out here to see donald trump because of his antics. it's like an experience that he wants to experience with everyone else. another woman admitting to me that she doesn't know whether she can support trump. she wants to but she doesn't know that much about him and specifically she wanted to hear about his immigration policy and what he is going to do about isis and on the economy. of course, there is some promise from donald trump that he will reveal some of these much needed policy specifics early in september. this also comes at a time where the campaign really seems to be showing some small signs that they're trying to really beef up their campaign and really lay the groundwork for potentially a longer campaign. they're investing more in groundwork in places like iowa and new hampshire. beefing up the staff in iowa
4:18 pm
where trump will visit tomorrow. kate, we will see trump do something he doesn't do, that's retail politicking. important to voters in the early states. meeting the candidates one on one, trying to size them up, that's something trump hasn't done. we know he will offer the helicopter rides to kids. >> he seemed unclear about it tonight when he was asked about it in the press conference. as usual, we will have to wait and see if those helicopter rides for the kids will happen. "outfront" tonight with us now, rich wilson. he worked on president george h.w. bush's presidential campaign and alexander marlow. rick, we heard a lot there from donald trump. i was looking at my notes talking about u.s./cuba relations, iraq, more specifics on policy. a lot of attacks on jeb bush. what do you make of it? he is his chief target these days. >> listen, someone just said on
4:19 pm
twitter, donald trump is in peak insult comic form. every one of the pressers is a dumpster fire. he is all over the board. he is swinging hay makers. whether you agree or disagree with jeb bush or endorse him or not, he never said he would do nothing about women's health. that was a lie by donald trump which he repeated three or four times, which is not unusual. most of the things that come out of donald trump's mouth have almost no relationship to the truth under any circumstances. he just makes it up. >> rick, on one point that he made -- i want to run this sound bite if we have it. this is one criticism that jeb bush is absolutely facing over and over again is his inability or his problems, the way he struggles with the iraq question over and over again. donald trump hit him squarely on that in this press conference. listen to this. >> what a mistake iraq was. i heard jeb bush talking about it. it took him five days before he
4:20 pm
could give an answer. after the pollsters told him what to say, he said it was bad. now he is trying to backtrack. probably because his brother said, wait a minute, you are killing me. you said it's bad. that's my legacy, the iraq war. the iraq war is a disaster for the bushes. the last thing we need is another bush, believe me. saddam hussein, instead of him, you have isis. instead of him, you have iran taking over. you tell me, was it worth what we paid for? >> you might not agree with him or agree with what he is saying, but that is the weakness. he is hitting squarely on it. how does bush respond? why hasn't he gotten it right? >> i don't work for jeb bush. what you should know is that jeb bush has been one of the few candidates who has put out a robust and thoughtful plan on terrorism. he has pointed out the fact that our secretary of state in the
4:21 pm
democratic presidential candidate in the course of her tenure visited iraq one time. jeb bush wasn't the person who said that isis was the jv team. jeb bush didn't set allow red lines to go past over and over again. jeb bush wasn't the person who spent a half a billion dollars to train 50 syrian pro h-democry fighters. this is not a situation where you can ascribe the train wreck in the middle east to george bush completely. i note donald trump today called george w. bush evil, which i find fascinating. that's an older piece of pain. this is a guy who also -- his version of an iraq policy is to say, we will go there and take the oil. really? that is the most superficial, drunked out at the local corner bar talking smack. this is a guy who has no policies to underpin his swagger. >> let me bring alex in. bush may open himself up and
4:22 pm
have a lot of weakness on this iraq question specifically. but to rick's point, he is at least laying out policy. donald trump again today saying, it's coming, it's coming. it's coming in september. why is he waiting on rolling out policy, alex, do you think? is he afraid of policy? >> i don't think he is. it's a fair question. first of all, i think jeb is getting hit sharply by donald there. him being called a puppet for taking money, that's a huge advantage that donald has over jeb is that jeb who has $100 million of money from other people, that could be seen as a weakness compared to a guy who can self-fund. the other thing talking about the iraq war, jeb vulnerable. i don't know what jeb believes yet and i follow this for a living. jeb got dinged because of his iran position saying he wouldn't cancel the iran deal. that was weakness with the grassroots as well. also in the washington post article you mentioned today,he
4:23 pm
is teaming up with -- the type of people who are voting in this prima primary, they are sim pdoing a victory dance today hearing donald is teaming with -- >> the senator from alabama. alex, rick, stick around. we will continue this discussion on other side. stand by. go get help, boy. go get help. go get help! right now! if you're a cat, you ignore people. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. go on kitty, kitty...
4:24 pm
made a simple tripvere chto the grocery storeis anything but simple. so finally, i had an important conversation with my dermatologist about humira. he explained that humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults saw 75% skin clearance. and the majority were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b,
4:25 pm
are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. ask your dermatologist about humira. because with humira clearer skin is possible. the one on your right is made out of high strength steel and the other is made of aluminum. now i'm gonna release a 700 pound grizzly bear into the room so you better pick a cage and get in it. this is crazy. oh my goodness. why did you pick the steel cage? harder for the bear to get into steel. you want to see something else made with high strength steel? that's the chevy silverado. made with high strength steel for high strength dependability. beautiful. this is highly irregular.
4:26 pm
another day shackled by wires. how long do we have to keep untangling for just a little taste of power? who knew charging could be so... draining? you can keep plugging away... or, you can change the way you charge. the samsung galaxy s6 and s6 edge, with built-in wireless charging capabilities. i can offer you no interest sittifor 24 months.oday
4:27 pm
thanks to the tools and help at experian.com, i know i have an 812 fico score, so i definitely qualify. so what else can you give me? same day delivery. the ottoman? thank you. fico scores are used in 90% of credit decisions. so get your credit swagger on. go to experian.com, become a member of experian credit tracker, and take charge of your score. "outfront" tonight, as you see donald trump taking the stage in new hampshire. he is in hampton, new hampshire, speaking to a crowd of reporters. this is a key primary state. we know right now donald trump
4:28 pm
is leading in that state amongst his republican rivals. donald trump held a press conference earlier speaking to reporters on a range of issues. let's see what mr. trump has to say now. >> maybe it's a combination of both. you know, i brought back a term that hasn't been used in a long time. it's called the silent majority. there's a tremendous silent majority that politicians have taken advantage of. i mean, they have taken advantage of the people of this country long enough. they are largely incompetent except when it comes to getting re-elected. who knows them better than me? i have contributed to everybody. they are great at one thing, don't make any waves, get re-elected, serve it out. then get re-elected again. i see it all the time. i've been watching it for so many years.
4:29 pm
and i personally am sick and tired of it. [ applause ] so backstage i met some of the vets, the greatest people we have in this country. and they have been mistreated. they've been treated like third-class citizens. and it's going to stop. it's going to stop. [ applause ] you look at these senators and the congressmen, they ride around, they're like kings. they think, isn't it great? they make speeches. nothing ever happens. two weeks ago on wednesday, they had the longest waits in reception rooms and reception areas in the history of the
4:30 pm
veterans administration. people waiting three days, for days, five days to see a doctor -- to see a doctor. so we are going -- it's called management. it's called management. that's all it is. [ applause ] the military is going to be so strong in this country that nobody is going to mess around with the united states. that i can tell you. that i can tell you. [ applause ] nobo nobody. you know, over the last few weeks, jeb bush, in favor of common core, weak on immigration, not good on military -- can you believe
4:31 pm
thought the iraq war was a good thing? you can make a mistake. i was against it for a long time. i'm the most mill ta ris tick person in the room. you have to know when to use it. you have to know when to use it. think about it. we spent $2 trillion in iraq. by the way, china has taken out a lot of the oil. isis may have it and iran may have it but china has taken out a lot of the oil. we never do anything right with china. we spend $2 trillion, thousands of lives of great people, mostly great young, beautiful people, wounded warriors who i love all over the place, all over the place, not treated properly, by the way -- [ applause ] and we have nothing. and iran is taking over iraq. the parts that they want to give up they are giving oil to isis.
4:32 pm
so isis has the oil. you remember when i said you shouldn't go in -- in fact, reuters wrote an article, big article in 2004 that trump, don't go in because you are going to ruin the balance. you had iran and iraq, they were the same. they were twins. they would have wars for years, wars, boom, one goes this way, one goes that way. if you take out one, the other one is going to take over. we took out one and look at the mess we have. we have destabilized the middle east and it's a mess. and jeb bush couldn't -- he didn't know the difference. he couldn't answer a question, was iraq a good thing or a bad thing. it's all right to say they made a mistake. finally after going to his pollster who he pays a fortune to, after five days he says it was a bad thing. let's accept that. then the other day i'm watching,
4:33 pm
yesterday, and he is saying, well, we got saddam hussein out, didn't we? i mean, i'm not a fan of saddam hussein. but he ran the place. and he had no weapons of mass destruction. and now instead of saddam hussein, we are far more brutal. we have isis. and we will have iran, because they're already making deals. two weeks ago i read where the leaders of iraq are visiting the leaders of iran. what do we get out of this? what do we get? we have stupid leadership. if you remember -- i didn't want to go in. i was right. [ applause ] i didn't want to go in. i was right. but then we were in. and it was bad. and there were still bombings, but it was bad. but we're in. at some point we have to go out. we can't stay there forever.
4:34 pm
we have to rebuild this country. we have to rebuild our country. we have to. [ applause ] our bridges are falling apart. our roads are a mess. our schools, our highways, everything, it's a mess. who is better at infrastructure than trump? okay? okay? [ applause ] so look, at some point we have to get out. they talked about the surge. the surge. remember bush's brother, he said, the war is over. we have taken over. two days later it was a disaster. obama said it with yemen. he announced yemen was a total victory. and then like three months later, it was like a disaster. and we don't have yemen. we don't have anything. we send over to our allies, if you call them that -- they don't know what they are. there's no word for them. okay? iraq isn't even a country. iraq is a bunch of corrupt
4:35 pm
people that sort of string something together. it's not a country. but we send over to our allies 2,500 humvees. so when i heard 2,500 i thought it was a typo in "the new york times." i said, they mean 25. they mean 2 1/2. they mean 250 maybe. that's a lot. so these are 2,500 humvees, armor plated so when the bombs go off you don't lose your life and legs and arms. really great vehicles. one shot is fired and these guys run away and the enemy picks up 2,500. think of it. think of it. so we need the right thinking. and i said -- some people said, what a terrible statement he
4:36 pm
made. because we had to leave. you can talk about surging but at some point we have to leave. we can't stay there forever. if we would loosen up some of the ridiculous rules, we have so much oil under our feet, we don't need them because of new technology. new technology. [ applause ] so we're going to leave. i say, leave. but take the oil. do you remember that? did anyone hear me say that? i've been saying it for years. take the oil. and i watch these guys on television, political people, many of them are with the administration. i think they mean well. but they don't have a clue. they would say, isn't that silly? mr. trump says take the oil. well, you know who has the oil now? iran, isis, everybody has it but us. we're the only ones without the oil.
4:37 pm
it's hard to believe. we need general douglas macarthur, who i thought he was great. to this day the highest academic record -- i'm big into school and academics. i love it. you have to be really smart to get into that school, the wharton school of finance. that was before i was trump. you know? that was before i was trump. but you have to be really smart. that's the hardest one. you know -- >> the always humble donald trump taking to the stage in new hampshire speaking to a rally of supporters in hampton, new hampshire. a lot to get through. as usual, gives folks a lot to work with. back with me now, rick wilson and alex marlow and joining us is cnn's chief political analyst gloria borger. donald trump back on the attack tonight. >> right.
4:38 pm
everybody from rand paul to hillary clinton is going to have to end her campaign, which he announced. jeb bush about how he couldn't answer questions on iraq. we have heard that before. just recently in the last few minutes talking about our country's stupid leadership, everything is a mess and we don't have anything. talking about our allies. he said, of course, that his position papers will be coming out soon. as you mentioned before, he has been dealing with jeff sessions on immigration. this is the kind of stump speech we are used to from donald trump. we heard a little bit of it just recently. we're hearing it again. >> rick, i got to ask you, we heard trump take it to bush when he was speaking to reporters. it was his first target when he took to the stage. with these kind of attacks -- i know bush is a very different temperament than donald trump. is it -- do you think it's time for bush to hit back stronger?
4:39 pm
>> well, i think that it is probably time for jeb to release the sword of chang and go at this guy. you don't benefit from drafting behind donald trump and hope he collapses. this is a guy who is increasingly leading a fraction of the conservative base into a very dangerous cul-de-sac. he is promising things that he can never deliver. it's time for jeb bush and other folks to start posting up and comparing and contrasting donald trump's rhetoric. when donald trump went into business with chinese folks in the '90s, they beat him like a government mule. this is a guy who talks a lot of smack but doesn't always have the record to back it up. >> the problem is they are starting to do that from the right, as you know. they are trying to say, like rand paul, that donald trump is not a real conservative. but it's kind of like they are
4:40 pm
punching jell-o. everything they do, it doesn't -- it doesn't seem to work. >> and then especially on the rand paul bit. he had a scathing critique of rand paul saying who wants to have a senator of kentucky when you are a senator as a backup plan. the attack trump -- >> that's -- that's so inside baseball. that's such a -- this is a guy who is a very thin skinned, very petty guy. the fact that he is going after rand paul -- rand paul's numbers were were they were going to be regardless of donald trump. the fact that he spent a fraction of his rant going after rand paul, he is a guy who punches down as people. he is a very thin-skinned delicate little princess when it cops to anyone saying something bad about him. he loses his mind every time. >> we know he can't listen to this right now. i hope he heard what you said. alex, jump in on this.
4:41 pm
a lot of folks are saying -- a lot of people who dismissed him, maybe i underestimated him, but some folks are saying, where are your policies. he says they are coming. does he have the organization in place for the long haul? right now he is getting a lot of media, a lot of press. but he is not doing the retail politics. it doesn't seem at least on the surface he has the organization in place to take it all the way through. >> it likes like he will build all that. you see the reason why trump is so much more -- he has momentum because of the commentary from rick. so much of the grassroots are not interested in what they have to say. leading us towards jeb, a guy with no energy. that doesn't get the grassroots fired up. calling people out repeatedly, people are loving it.
4:42 pm
whether or not you are happy, that's up to you. you see him build this team in iowa. 100 people going to see his bus. he is on a 747 now. we have a reporter there, my reporter. i'm hearing from inside of the trump team, not from trumphearie talking to people from other campaigns thinking about jumping shark to trump because they see campaigns folding. trump continues to get momentum. the more he calls people out and the more he gets hate from guys like rick. >> here is a question i have -- >> you guys sound like -- alex, you sound like you are reporting the five-year plan for stalin. you can't find a negative story about donald trump except it's a full moon. >> we were critical of his interview with cnn. >> i get that you guys -- >> assigned by me, put in the lead. >> i get that you are -- >> you want to fight with trump
4:43 pm
people. >> i get you are all in on trump. alex, i get it. i get you are all in on trul mp. >> it's not like -- >> i'm not yelling. i understand that you guys are all in on trump. that's fine. that's a corporate decision you made. i understand it. i'm sure there's an underpinning to that. alex, what is happening with you and another -- there's some folks on the right who are covering this because it's great for clicks, it's great for energizing a certain demo. i get it. i understand it. let's be honest here. you aren't covering donald trump in a straight up the middle journalistic way. half of it comes like looking like the harvest in the soviet union. this is not a guy who is -- >> name calling. we're a grassroots conservative site. so long as trump says he will build a border wall, he will get support from -- >> which you know is fiction.
4:44 pm
>> i don't know. >> you know it's a fiction. >> he will build a wall. >> of course it's a fiction. >> he will build that wall and rick, we can check him on that. >> it will be huge and gold. >> we will see. rick, it's great to see you. we will continue this later. rick, alex, gloria, thanks so much. "outfront" next, we are going to continue to monitor donald trump's campaign speech in new hampshire. donald trump, he arrives in presidential-like jets and helicopters. no bus rides for him. no intimate meet and greets. our special report on the very unconventional trump campaign. one of the foot's favorite rituals happens at the water's edge. here, they must look their best. smooth, beautiful skin is an advantage. the others can only hide in shame. introducing the new dr. scholl's dreamwalk express pedi.

imagine - these kids won't have to remember passwords or obsess about security. for them, every screen is meant to be touched. and web pages are meant to be scribbled on, and shared. they'll expect their devices to listen to them. and talk. and sing. and tell a funny joke. and as they grow, and get better at things, their technology will too. they'll do things their parents never even dreamed of. because these kids will grow up with windows 10. the future starts now, for all of us. get started today. windows 10. a more human way to do.
