trump has the lowered the bar and now is it a surprise that people who don't like him are stepping over that low bar? i don't think it is. >> i don't have thin skin. i have very strong, very thick skin, and i have a strong temperament and it's in a very in control temperament. >> he does not have the temperament. is it possible that something may get him angry and he get us involved in a war? yeah, that is a possibility. >> we're building a wall. this judge is giving us unfair ruling. now i want to say why. well, i'm building a wall. >> donald trump's not just wrong about judge kirio, he's wrong about america.

♪ hello, and welcome to election night in america i'm wolf blitzer in the cnn election center. thanks very much for joining us. the first results from puerto rico's democratic primary and they're coming in right now. so far hillary clinton has an early lead over bernie sanders and you see it there. only 3% of the vote is in 69.3% for hillary clinton and 30.2% for bernie sanders and it's campaigning through california. live pictures coming in from the community event in the city of vallejo in california and we're monitoring that and we'll have live coverage of that coming up while puerto rico offers far less delegates than california and just 60 delegates at stake in puerto rico become more important than a lot of people could have predicted because those 60 delegates are all hillary clinton would need to secure the nomination mathematically if she was to get all of those delegates. that's not easy. bernie sanders is vowing to fight all of the way to the convention floor in philadelphia

in july. tonight, there could potentially have a major impact on the strategy moving forward, if -- if she were to get all 60 of those delegates. let's go to dania alexandrino. you reported people stood in line for an hour and a half if not longer. the polls have been closed now for four hours, only 3% of the vote is in. what are they saying? why are the results coming in as slowly as they are? >> it's a very good question, wolf. the reason why votes are coming in so slowly in their democratic primaries is because we've had local primaries, as well. so obviously the local state commission, voting commission is given priorities to the votes coming in for the local elections because we are waiting to define who the last candidate

for governor is. our resident commissioner pedro pierre luisi was up for that position. that's probably the main reason why the democratic primaries have been coming in so slow. the second reason is today was the first time that puerto rico has been counting votes electronically, however, that was only for local primaries, not for democratic primaries. so democratic primary votes are still being counted manually and that's another one of the reasons why votes are coming in so slow and there are polls and boots all over the island. there are parts of the island in the mountains where getting to them is not that simple so those votes have to get picked up by somebody and be driven back to the island into the main part of the island in san juan. so those are the two main reasons why the votes are coming in so slow, wolf. >> all right. dania alexandrino.

thanks for that. we'll get back to you very soon. right now hillary clinton has the lead, as i said in that political primary and the democratic presidential primary and only 3% of her is in. bernie sanders is vowing to go to the democratic convention in philadelphia in july. i spoke to sanders' campaign adviser in the last hour. listen to this. >> we started out with more than 400 superdelegates declaring for hillary clinton before the iowa caucuses and that being reported and so bernie has had an uphill race the entire time. so, yeah. i'm a superdelegate. we will campaign to eliminate superdelegates going forward, but this year we have to play with the rules as they are and that means we will be asking superdelegates to look at who was the strongest candidate. >> our inside politics anchor john king and we are also joined by nia mallika. henderson and our political

director. walk us through the numbers as we're seeing them right now. >> wolf, you wouldn't normally think the puerto rico primary would be important, but because hillary clinton is knocking on the door it could be important and it looks like she's unlikely to get to the magic number tonight and she'll get closer if the lead holds up and that's significant for a number of reasons and you just heard maybe they're counting local elections first and 69% to 30.4% and we've got a healthy clinton lead. we have to wait and count, but if anything close to this holds up, she'll get 40 or 42 and somewhere in the ballpark of 40 to 60 delegates and what it will do is number one, it gives her another win. 29 wins and number two, it gets her knocking on the door heading in to the last big super tuesday. puerto rico is the only contest for the democrat and we have six big contests on tuesday and the dakotas, new mexico, and the granddaddy of them all, california. some 500 delegates at stake

there. hillary clinton now can believe with certainty inside her campaign. first, i want to take these away and here's where she is right now. 1776 to 1501 so 275 pledge delegate lead coming into tonight. looks like she'll add over 40 and we'll see if the puerto rico results change and if she gets a win she has more there and here's what she's hoping. when you factor this in, 547 superdelegates to 46 for senator sanders and secretary clinton will end the night right up against this line. this is 23 -- 23 without any delegates from puerto rico. if you add 30, 40 or more, she's going to be right up against within 20 or so and maybe even under 20 on knocking on the 2383 and the number you need to clench, and these people don't vote believe the election and just like eight years ago senator obama were enough to clench it, and what does

secretary clinton hope? to be knocking on the door tonight to send an unmistakable signal tonight out of puerto rico that this is soon within her grassp and to have new jersey do it on tuesday night and put it over the top and she's also hoping for wins in new mexico and california, as well. california, the biggest prize, of course, can clinton get the nomination without it? yes, she can. would she like to get california to limit bernie sanders going into the momentum? that's bart of the big strategy. tonight is important because it gives her another win with the diverse electorate and it's going to get her right on the threshold of that magic number. >> a gooda, nal sis. come on over to the table and david, and talia are still with us as well. if she doesn't clinch it tonight she will not have to necessarily wait until california and new mexicoing on the east coast and the polls close there a lot earlier than california. presumably she could go over the top after new jersey closes their polls. >> the polls show it to be a contest that she is heavily favored to win and it's one that

sanders isn't competing in anymore and he really left and went to california and planted his flag there for the last several weeks and that was the prize that they want to leave with the big enchilada of the race, but wolf, you're right. new jersey has 126 delegates at stake. if the polls close a slew of delegates and that could put her over the top before the polls close in california. what they, what the clinton campaign, and i've talked to people in brooklyn at the campaign headquarters with this, what they want to avoid at all costs is to be the superdelegates to be over the top and tomorrow, they don't want a bunch of superdelegates coming out saying it's inesh inevitab inevitable, here i am. that is not how they want to do this and they need to move into a mode of trying to woo the bernie sanders supporters and they know this is a touchy issue for them and they want to bring

everything possible to bring them into the fold and a, b, they've set up a big event on tuesday night in brooklyn at the navy yard there and they planned as they were saying earlier, nia, to mark this historic moment if she does, indeed, do it becoming the first female presidential nominee. >> all of us know it's sort of real estate, location, location, location. this event that's scheduled for tuesday night by the hillary campaign at the brooklyn navy yard and that's going to be an event where she will formally say presumably, it's over. >> she could have been in california and it's not risky and not clear that she'll win there, new jersey and not exactly new york which, of course, is her home state and she comes to brooklyn and we expect a big speech and a big moment to happen on tuesday. the question is what does bernie sanders do? of course, we saw eight years ago, hillary clinton being

magnanimous when she conceded to barack obama and listen, we had separate paths and now we merge. she spoke like a true party person and the big question about bernie sanders is whether or not he has the dna with him and he doesn't because he essentially joined the democratic party and people are looking to send him signals, but as david said they have to be careful and they don't want to alienate bernie sanders and they don't want to alienate his supporters and they have work to do. bernie sanders and his supporters believe this has been a rigged process. that is something that his supporters have said and what is the new narrative of these parties. they want to say new jersey put us over the top and then as we move west they will roll out more superdelegates and she's the presumptive nominee and then they want top win new mexico and

say that's a swing state and has the latino population and she's proven again that she wins and what they hope for is the exclamation point. california is a very close race and the clinton campaign is hoping to win that. by ending the night saying we clinched and we won the big state and the biggest state of them all kind of a hammer to senator sanders to say please, get the message. >> assuming it works out that way. stand by. much more coming up. we're continuing to watch the democratic results from the democratic presidential primary trickling in from puerto rico. they're taking their time counting them. donald trump is trying to unite the republican party behind him and he's getting pushback. we'll take a look at the presumptive nominee efforts to woo party loyalists and the fresh new attack at against the democratic presidential front-runner hillary clinton using her own words against her. . oh no, i'll take you up to the front of the school.

(doorbell) what's that? swiffer wetjet. so much stuff coming up. this is amazing woah. wow. now i feel more like making a mess is part of growing up. stop cleaning. start swiffering. donald trump, he's clearly run against hillary clinton right now. he's presuming she will be the democratic presidential nominee and is adamant than that senator bernie sanders in the words of a

trump spokesperson doesn't stand a chance. watch this. it's the newest television ad in support of donald trump, that puts her in the crosshairs. >> i want to say one thing. >> we turned over one thing. >> i want you to listen to me. >> i did not -- >> i did not on. >> i did not send classified material. >> not a single time. >> you get the point, katrina pearson is the national spokesperson for the donald trump campaign. she's joining us now, katrina, this new ad, is this something that the trump campaign isry leasing or is this from one of the super pacs supporting him. >> no, wolf. the campaign did not put this out. this isn't a pro-trump super pac. i'm not sure what it is and i think it does a good job at really showing the distinction with bill and hillary and the adamant denials and just flat-out lying to the faces of american people and it's just like hillary clinton lying to the families of those who have fallen in benghazi by saying

that it started because of some youtube video. turns out it was terrorism. >> i than during the primary process donald trump railed against the super pacs and now he's happy and accepting the fact that there are these pro-trump super pacs out there? >> mr. trump is still not a big fan of super pacs. however, this is a joint effort with the rnc. everyone has agreed to get out there and support mr. trump because it is going to matter to raise money for a down ballot candidates and individuals who want mr. trump's support. >> i was quoting you earlier when you said that donald trump feels differently and bernie sanders doesn't stand a chance in your words to get the democratic presidential nomination. so what work is being done inside the trump campaign, not just the super pac, inside the trump campaign to repair some of the divisions within the republican party? it's obviously critical that donald trump as the new effective leader of the

republican party assuming he's the republican nominee, he's got to unite that party. >> yes. mr. trump has committed to do that, and look, wolf, these divisions in the party did not start when mr. trump entered the race in june. there have been serious divisions during the last two presidential cycles and mainly because the leadership was not listening to the grassroots and it's nice to see that they're embracing mr. trump as the nominee. he's going to continue to lead with leaders and he'll be addressing the conference and continue to be out there and campaign for those down in the ballot that want his support. i think that will go a really long way. >> in the last hour, donald trump who is active on twitter and he has 8.5 million followers. he tweeted this, hillary clinton is unfit to be president. she has bad judgment, poor leadership skills and a bad and destructive track record. change! who is he appealing to in a

tweet like this? is he trying to expand his base because clearly he's got strong conservative republican base support and if he's going to be president of the united states, he's got to broaden that support. >> it was bernie sanders that first said hillary clinton had bad judgment and in the earlier discussion we talked about hillary clinton's temperament and it was the national review and the washington post that reported on her violent outbursts that she had with staff and secret service and that was back this last october. well trump is right. he's letting everyone know that he agrees with bernie sanders when it comes to hillary clinton's judgment, whether it's going into sovereign nations and creating vacuums or being a part of the wall street corruption while she's out there talking about education, she was partnering with wall street and being a part of a money laundering firm with $55 million going into an organization that was headed up by bill clinton. not even that.

it's also the prison lobby money that hillary clinton has been receiving when we have generations of minority youth in the private prisons. hillary clirpt hnton has a lot answer and we'll hold her accountable. >> i can see after the campaign, just wait, it's only about to get tougher. katrina, stand by, we'll get back to you. they're being counted as we speak and so far still only 3% of the vote is in. she has a lead to bernie sanders 30%. we'll update you on that. much more after this.

hillary clinton is speaking at a community event taking questions from residents in vallejo, california. what i want to do is listen in a little bit to hear what she's saying. >> we have medicalized all these problem, but then we don't have enough medical care. so it's like a catch 22. it's like we can't fund you. you've been in the community and we're very grateful, thank you very much. we need to fund medical professionals, but we don't have enough medical professionals so people fall between the crack, right? >> absolutely. >> what's the criteria for reimbursement for medicare and social security after meeting

requirements and non-profits struggle in this community because it's so hard to get funding whether it's from medical or foundations. so if they were to change the criteria so it really is more in tune with what the needs are in the community then we can serve more people. because there are a lot of non-profit providers in this community, but staying alive may mean sustainable and a challenge. >> right. >> that's one thing and the substance abuse and mental health is defending reimbursement rates and we have a lot of people that we call dual diagnosis and sometimes substance abusers and it's an illness and they don't get funding and they don't get treatment because they don't have a mental illness. so if that can be blended together so that not all substance abuse is part of it, it should not be separated and that's all of the discussion separately later, but because we

see mental health. it's a separate funding. >> and it's above your neck or below your neck. >> it should be all one. l all body. i've been an advocate for that. it's the struggle, but things are changing, but when you're president it will really change. [ cheers and applause ] >> we're sure going to try. we're sure going to try, but there is still such a stigma and in many of the communities that you mentioned, if you would tell your friends and your neighbors and your family if you have diabetes, but you might not tell if you have depression or bipolar or anything else.

>> yes. >> and so we still have not cracked that code about saying, you know, the more we learn about our genetic system and about environmental influences the more we know that there's all kinds of reason yes people develop certain illnesses or susceptibilities to illness and we've got to end the stigma. so everybody has to be part of that. [ applause ] >> all right. we will continue to listen to hillary clinton. she's taking questions from residents of vallejo, california, the california primary and the super tuesday this coming tuesday and the last big state with the primary. we're watching the results coming in right now from the democratic presidential primary in puerto rico. we just heard from the democratic party chairman in puerto rico and tells us that voter turnout across the island was higher than expected and the votes in the metropolitan areas

and san juan, and those votes are beginning to be counted right now four and a half hours after the polls close and only a small trickle is in and only 3% and you can see the numbers there 69.3 for hillary clinton and 32.2% for bernie sanders. meanwhile, i want you to hear from democratic candidate senator bernie sanders. he's confident that no matter what happens in puerto rico, the convention in philadelphia, in july will be, in his word, con tef tested and this from his speech. >> at the end of the nominating process, no candidate will have enough pledge delegates to call the campaign a victory. they will be dependent upon superdelegates. in other words, the democratic national convention will be a contested convention.

>> all right. bill press is joining us right now. hillary rosen is with us, scotty hu hughes is with us and donna brazile is with us, as well. bill press, when he says flatly the democratic convention in philadelphia will be a contested convention. will it be a contested convention if after california, after tuesday night, hillary clinton has the most pledged delegates and the most superdelegates and the most votes by 3 million, at least going into philadelphia? will he still contest the nomination? >> you know, wolf, i hate to give you a political answer, but i think it depends on what your definition of contested is. first of all, the democratic party is you know righted and it will be more united after the convention and we're going to know on tuesday. if bernie sanders loses

california it's all over. i think he'll take a shot at the real superdelegates and he'll have to decide if he sees that the superdelegates are going to move and they're not going to move and he'll have to decide whether he endorses hillary and whether he waits for the convention and he's nominated and then makes it official at the convention. >> i can tell you, when i recommend it, and i've made my recommendation. i think that's up to senator sanders, but i do know this. this part is united to take back the house and to take back the senate and to beat donald trump. the only question is who will lead that charge and we'll show it tuesday, wednesday or shortly there after. you're a clinton supporter, what do you say?

we need to focus on the ieshy here that bernie sanders has decried the democratic establishment and in now what he's going to be saying and what he said in this interview yesterday is forget how the people voted. i want the democratic establishment, the superdelegates to overturn the will of the people and make me the nominee. that's just crazy. and any way you cut it, even if bernie sanders wins california, if you give all of the superdelegates in those states to bernie sanders and all of the superdelegates that hillary clinton will have won, she is still the nominee, so superdelegates are not going to be creating this nominee and there is no rational reason that bernie sanders should be out there. he said it's not up to me, it's up to hillary clinton to figure out what to do with my

supporters, but he spent the last three months trying to delegitimatize. his obligation will be to say to his is up are supporters, yes, hold her accountable on the issue, but she won fair and square. this was not taken from us, she won fair and square and that will be his nom nation. >> you're a superdelegate and the vice chair of the democratic combination and you've been neutral with bernie sanders and hillary clinton. what happens tuesday night? >> for those of us in the district of colombia we're also looking for our day in the sunshine. >> that's a week from tuesday. >> hillary rosen, we're all d.c. voters. there are 20 delegates at stake on june 14th, but that said, the last big crop. 82% of the delegates have been selected as of today. in two days, it's very, very

important that we have a good voter turnout in new jersey, new mexico, california and north and south dakota. it's very, very important and i believe every american should have an opportunity to cast his or her ballot and let those votes count, but at the end of the day once -- one of the candidates hit 238 3w. that's the pledge delegates and we're also known as superdelegates, but we're unpledged and we can make up our minds, we're governors, elected officials and bernie sanders is a superdelegate is not a family, whenever that number is reached we'll have a presumptive nominee of the democratic party and that's the way the process works. as i said before, wolf, superdelegates, unpledged delegates have never overturned the will of the voters and i

don't believe we'll do it this coming week. >> scotty, as you know, if the democrats can unite and say hillary clinton gets the nomination and she gets the bernie sanders team onboard and recreates the very successful barack obama coalition that got him twice elected president of the united states. that represents a formidable challenge for the man you want to see as president of the united states, donald trump. how does he deal with that? >> i think he deals with it. what the key is bernie sanders supporters and this has gone on longer than anyone expected and bernie had an uphill battle. just because senator sanders decides to get out the race doesn't mean that his followers who are just as passionate in a lot of ways that the reason why bernie has been able to give a challenge is because he's empowered from the people and polls are showing either 20% of them and either way, that helps the republicans and it helps mr.

trump and he'll continue to capitalize on that. >> is that the number you've seen? >> no. >> wait a minute, that 20% of the bernie sanders supporters will stay home and not vote or go to donald trump? >> fono. she's totally wrong. the trump candidacy and they are two totally different people and the bernie sanders supporters are passionate about the things that donald trump does not believe in. look, once this is over, burdeny is taking the lead, against donald trump, and everything and donald trump is against everything the democratic party has stood for, and bernie sanders. -- >> i'm sorry. those polls -- bill, you have

to -- don't underestimate your own supporters? hold on, bill. >> let the voters decide. >> let me say this, i've been in enough primary campaigns that as we close down the democratic race. we have proportional representation and everyone deserves an opportunity to have his or her vote counted, but at the end of the day democrats will come home. >> sure. >> they will come back together and we'll pivot to reach those independents and the disaffected republicans. we'll have two different candidates and at the end of the day the democratic nominee will win. >> i want to play a clip of bernie sanders criticizing the clinton foundation. listen to this. >> do i have a problem? when a sitting secretary of state and a foundation run by her husband collects many millions of dollars from foreign

governments and governments which are dictator ships? you don't have a lot of civil liberties and democratic rights in saudi arabia. you don't have a lot of respect there for opposition points of view, for gay rights and women's rights. yeah, do i have a problem with that? >> yeah, i do. >> he was speaking with jake tapper. what's your response as a hillary clinton supporter when he said he has a problem that the clinton foundation was taking money from saudi arabia. >> shame on bernie sanders for throwing where no facts exist. >> the clinton foundation, we know of contributions to the clinton foundation because they voluntarily disclosed every dime they got. when hillary clinton was secretary of state she held foreign governments accountable on women's rights, on gay rights and human rights more than any other secretary of state has

ever done. so for burdeny sanders take the silly republican talking points and somehow suggest that she was bought off from foreign governments by virtue of clinton foundation support, not true. those monies went to poverty programs in certain countries and period, hillary clinton separated her secretary of state duties from that and shame on bernie sanders for throwing this mud the last week of the campaign that he is unfortunately, for him, losing. >> everybody hold on. bill, i'll give you a quick response, but go ahead. >> i just want to say i'm not doing anything -- hurting hillary clinton's reputation here, but i think the question of contributions to american institutions from foreign governments is a legitimate issue and we ought to take a look at it. everybody stand by and we'll continue our analysis. lots going on, hillary clinton potentially on the brink of mathematically clifrpinching th nomination.

we're continuing to watch results come in from puerto rico's democratic presidential

primary and so far hillary clinton has an early lead over bernie sanders and it is very clear still only 3% of the vote is in. you can see 69.3% for hillary clinton and 30.2% for bernie sanders and we're less than 48 hours away from the last big primary day where it's down to the wire in california. that's the biggest in the super tuesday prizes. that's coming up and let's turn to our senior washington correspondent jeff zelleny and he's with the bernie sanders campaign. jeff, if hillary clinton wins california, how does that change the equation? >> reporter: wolf, if hillary clinton wins california that really pours cold water on bernie sanders' argument that he should take this all of the way to the convention, that he can try and convince superdelegates to come over to his side and that's one of the reasons why he's trying very hard to win

california. today it is a frenzied campaign day. she's making several stops including a coffee shop behind me. i just stepped outside here from inside there and she's answering questions from voters here, from residents here, but bill clinton also campaigning across the state and so many surrogates from celebrities and others, and wolf, they're trying to close strong and win here in california and if they would, that certainly answers at least in some respects bernie sanders' argument that he can take this to the convention, wolf? >> bernie sanders is insisting and he'll keep on fighting including the convention in philadelphia. how realistic is that? anything is possible, but at this point it is really, really unlikely. in fact, bernie sanders concedes he's got an uphill battle and that's because numbers don't lie. hillary clinton has 500 more superdelegates than bernie sanders. about 400 of those

superdelegates got behind him, and win or lose, he wants the five or six weeks between tuesday and the convention to change those superdelegates' minds before they vote on the convention floor in philadelphia and the argument he's going to make is that he's a better general election candidate than hillary clinton. here's what he's going to tell the superdelegates. >> it is very clear that donald trump's negative ratings are enormously high unprecedented for a major party presidential candidate and secretary clinton's negative ratings are also very, very high. i think it is important to give the american people a choice. >> now before he can make that argument he really needs to win in california because if hillary clinton has a big night on tuesday night which is very possible, it's going to make it difficult for bernie sanders.

she could come away tuesday night and theic candidate and s could have more votes with bernie sanders and that could put him in the awkward position of essentially having the argument of superdelegates to overturn the will of the voters and that's going to be a really tough argument for him to make. just this afternoon, he was asked again, does he think there will be a contested convention and he said, absolutely. wolf, as you and i both know after election night things can change very, very quickly. so we'll have to see what happens on tuesday night and where everything stands on wednesday, wolf. >> it will be a big day on tuesday. no doubt about that. all right, thanks, guys, very much. >> hurley results have hillary clinton out right now. it is still early. only three% of the vote is in, and will it come down to super tuesday. more with our panel right after this.

juan, a big population center which if we can get some vote out of there we would have a much better sense of whether or not this margin with only 3% in is likely to hold or not. >> you may be right with that slip of the tongue. california might beat them at the rate we're going right now. >> i just want to go back to the bill clinton comment we made. we covered bill clinton together wolf, a long time ago and as you know, he likes to speak his mind and as you know he gets pretty feisty when he's challenged and when he gets tired he tends to be more willing to speak his mind and that's what he thinks about those sanders supporters and that is not helpful to his wife the candidate at a time when both sanders and secretary clinton will have to do some diplomacy. both sanders and clinton will not only talk to each other, but talk to the supporters if there will be peace and unity in the democratic party and more than a few times in 2008 became a complicated factor in the relationship between then senators clinton and senator

obama and there he goes again. >> you remember south carolina. >> not helpful at all and that was a very low point in that campaign and they had to do a lot of repair work after that -- after everything was done. bill clinton has gone after sanders supporters before he's had these sort of exchanges, where he gets testy. i think we can believe and know at this point he won't be the peacemaker here. he's not going to be the go between these two campaigns and they've got other people to do that and maybe somebody like president obama and maybe somebody like elizabeth warren and certainly not helpful at this point in term of bringing these two sides. >> he has been very active out on the campaign trail and we've seen bill clinton, the former president out there campaigning for his wife. >> when the campaign canceled a new jersey event for hillary clinton in new jersey and had her go back out west to california for a five-day swing, they put right after that, bill

clinton will be in california for five days, not together, but so that they can criss-cross the state and he's up in northern california and he's down in los angeles and they positioned them all over the state for five straight days and we've seen tenser moments than that with bill clinton and the cycle and criminal justice reform and black lives matter folks. that is not the most tense i've seen him throughout, but john, you are right, it is a dismissiveness that at this stage of the game you want to avoid if you're in the clinton camp. >> let me play a couple of clips and new ads that have been released pro-hillary clinton and pro-donald trump. let's watch. >> i want to say one thing -- >> we turned over everything. >> i want you to listen to me -- >> i did not -- >> i did not -- >> i did not send classified material. >> not a single time. >> how stupid are the people of iowa? >> this time the republican front-runner is accused of mocking a reporter who has a physical disability.

♪ ♪ >> this country is a hell hole. >> it's going to get pretty ugly, isn't it? >> my goodness, i'm glad i don't live in any of these swing states because these places will be flooded with ads and i think one of the things we found in the primary election was that sometimes these ads didn't really matter, right? you had all of these super pacs that spent millions and millions of dollars on ads and pro-jeb bush and anti-donald trump and they didn't work and you do see these individual campaigns and the super pacs sharpening the messages and hillary clinton essentially saying donald trump is unfit to be president and donald trump saying listen, we've had enough of the clinton controversy surrounding them everywhere and we don't want more of the same. >> he says as you've heard lately, she should be in jail right now. that's what donald trump says about hillary clinton. >> he does say that. it's sort of you're too crazy to hold the office. you're a criminal and shouldn't

be there and that's where we are in this election back and forth and this super pack just formed last week and $32 in seed money, that sort of has the tacit blessing of the campaign for people who want to spend big and their out of the gate message is this attempt of a character takedown on the clinton which is is not unlike what we saw the out of the gate message from the pro-clinton super pac. these super pacs will contribute to the high negatives these two candidates have. >> these are two campaigns and friends of the super pac community who understand each is view negatively by more than six in ten american voters. so the strategy is you don't like me or you don't like the other one more? it will be about character,

temperament and trustworthiness and much more than it will be about policy, sadly. >> it will be a tough, tough race going forward and we'll see what happens tonights. we'll see what happens tuesday going forward, i think the fighting is going to just get started. all right, guys, thanks very much. to our viewers, thank for joining us for tonight's special election coverage. please stay with cnn and cnn.com throughout the night for the latest results from the puerto rico democratic presidential primary. i'm wolf blitzer in the cnn election center. bourdain starts right after - this. boys have been really good today. send. let's get mark his own cell phone. nice. send. brad could use a new bike. send.
