welcome to "inside politics." i'm john king. thanks for sharing time with us today. another wacky day on the campaign trail. donald trump a new enemy number one, highest elected republican in the land. >> i don't want his support. i don't care about his support. what i want to do is win for the people. i wouldn't want to be in a foxhole with a lot of these people. that i can tell you. >> but mccain's a brave man.

>> suggesting trump could be headed to a blowout loss. if going down, it won't be quietly. >> the election of hillary clinton would lead to the destruction of our country. believe me. today we learned, amazingly, that the department of justice fed information to the clinton campaign about the e-mail investigation so that the campaign could be prepared to cover up her crimes. >> not exactly true, but we'll get to that. plus, clinton's final push includes help from high-powered allies including one who lost the presidency by fewer than 600 votes. >> your vote really, really, really counts. a lot. you -- you can consider me as an exhibit a of that proof.

elections have consequences. your vote counts. your vote has consequences. >> good to see al gore back on the campaign trail. isn't it? with us to share reporting and insights, from "usa today," and the boston globe and cnn's reporter. a donald trump rally this hour in ocala, florida. we'll take you there live if he's making news. making his case in florida. there last night, too. trump trails there and pretty much impossible to get limb to 270 electoral votes without florida's 29. in florida doesn't vote, donald trump saying last night, listen, i need you. >> so florida, if you guys don't vote me as a victor i'm going to be very angry at you. you better make sure we win, or there will be no more trump rallies. the hell with that. the hell with the rallies.

>> panama city rally last night. donald trump try add twist on that old saying, throw everything but the kitchen sink. right? donald trump spins this. look at all of the hacked clinton e-mails. oh. we don't have has sound. bring it into the conversation. time after time after time raising issues from wikileaks, bernie sanders, system rigged, colluding with the clinton campaign, the justice department. some say trying to stir up the republican base. others trying to depress democratic turnout. where are we? >> all of the above, i think, and back to where he started. feuding with the republican party. one of the things that was interesting i think yesterday you look at his twitter feed. half of his e-mails about the wikileaks, half are about john mccain's foul mouth, about paul ryan not being a loyal guy. and republicans just not standing by him. you imagine if this was a different candidate they would

have a way to drive this message about wikileaks and get an assist from the rnc, an assist from, off elected officials across the country, but because this is a ditch candidate and he's running certainly a different strategy now, he isn't able to drive a message in the same way. >> i want to pick up on the part about the feud with paul ryan and other republicans. recent history here. each time that trump attacked someone smaller than himself, he's made himself smaller. this is what happened which he attacked judge curiel. attacked the khans this summer. attacked alicia machado after the first debate. poll numbers went down, he went into a slide as he attacked someone smaller than himself. paul ryan a pretty big target but not a president's target, not his actual opponent, and it's a day that's lost. a week that's lost to trump when they does that. >> you get to a key point. if your goal is winning the presidency, now a dissident civil war, call if what you will, toxic mood in the republican party. establishment guys standing with

paul ryan saying a conservative man of prim. trump's the outsider, the guy that doesn't belong. trump voters didn't like the establishment to begin with, paul ryan, disloyal. and if this election goes on the path its on, republicans lose seats, trump loses presidency. moderates lose. his supporters get swept out if a big democratic year and some republicans saying his job is at risk. >> yeah. i mean, the how dynamics will be fascinating. could potentially lose the majority. it if they have it, much less a margin for paul ryan to work with. it gets back to that point of trump not necessarily having a strategy. doesn't have something he's driving each and every day, and comes out when people who have met with him, short attention span. can't spoke focus on one thing . you see it in the twitter account.

not one overarching strategy aimed at hillary clinton. >> some saying time to dump trump, jumping back, phones ringing off the hooks, trump supporters vocal. from nebraska, glenn in colorado saying, never mind. never mind. didn't mean it. because of this backlash from trump supporters. ryan is holding firm in the position he's in. a little unclear. won't defend or campaign with trump but hasn't withdrawn his endorsement. campaign, hill staff, excuse me, every day puts a video up on the speaker's website. a little snippet from today's. >> the way i say to young people is, you don't want to just live a good life. you want to lead a good life. if you want to be able to lead your life, nen ythen you want te a country founded on core principles that allow you to lead your life. >> doing a "20/20" ad? >> again, recorded -- god knows how long ago think was recorded.

does it regularlily. to put it up today in the middle of this, don't just live a good life, lead a good life? talking about the donald trump tape groping women. core principles? paul ryan's private crim simple of trump, hawaii no idea what he really believes in. >> trying to preserve his own brand and well as the brand of the down ballot people who will suffer here. job, right aft john, right after the tape came out republicans started jumping ship, thought where the wind was going. polls came out, actually only 16%, maybe 13% thought they should bail on trump. republicans started to come back on that again. so -- i think that there's going to be a broader reckoning within the republican party for sure. between the trump wing and the -- donald trump burn down the house wing and this is the point we ask, does donald trump meandering all over the place or is there a broader strategy?

pull back the curtain and look at who is orchestrating a lot of this, steve bannon. we have not been following this story, or kind of covering enough what, how much steve bannon is really kind of influencing things behind the scenes. and when you talk about that debate, that was all about base-thrilling. right? up to and including what we found out afterwards, they tried to orchestrate the former women who. accused bill clinton to have a jerry springer-like moment on live television. you start to look at that, you question whether the broader strategy is looking at a postelection, some kind of a new trumpian wing of the republican party. >> is it a movement? a tv network? is it a media, all of the above, don't know. great point. look at breitbart, where steve bannon comes from. they hit the clintons every day, still think president obama was born somewhere other than the united states, keep hitting it, hitting it. steve bannon can do math. knows you're not going to win a national election with that strategy, but if you assume a

postelection, trump losing, the trump people say paul ryan and the establishment cost us the election by this last-minute, last month running away. the establishment will say, trump cost us the election being crazy bip being erratic, campaign being like that, and the civil war in the party we thought would be settled in this election will get worse as we go forward. >> yeah. i think that's right. if you look at 2020, trump wins, unlikely at this point. loses, you imagine that 12 or 15 people will run on the republican side again. all of these -- >> oh, thrill. >> i talked to somebody about that. yeah. can't wait for that to happen. yeah. and so you see now people positioning themselves visa vi donald trump, how close are they? ted cruz saying vote your conscience, then saying, i'm all in. >> and the guy who called his father a presidential assassin and -- >> yes. in ways what the republicans are doing looking at polls. look at then jumping ship, partly because trump is losing.

you saw that show up, losing after that first debate. i imagine if he was closer in polls and swing states they wouldn't be so quick to separate themselves. >> throughout the discussion ra raised the question does donald trump no what he stands for. doesn't it raise the question do other republicans know what they stand for and whether they have something to be for rather then against or concerned about, their problem in the primaries. figured out what they were for. >> revolted against what the store is selling. we've seen in this campaign. the customers want something else. showing mcdonald's and not ordering hamburgers. that's happening. the utah poll is stunning, taken in the middle of all this trump groping tape. polls go wild after that big event. see if they settle. the state of utah. 26% clinton, 26% trump, 22% ed mcmillan. don't know who he is? the conservative columnist decided to run when looking around for a never trump

candidate. the clinton number doesn't stun me. the democrat will get 26% or 30% of the state of utah. the fact donald trump gets a quarter of the vote in utah. evan mcmcmullen, see where it i in a week. fracturing within the republican party. >> gary johnson, 14%, too. there is a sense, especially in utah you saw immediate aftermath of that tape. jason chaffetz, congressman from utah, governor herbert from utah. mitt romney a registered voter now in utah. a lot of people in utah aghast as the moral irresponsible of donald trump with these tapes, and so i think utah is a perfect case where everybody's splitting off and if donald trump cannot carry utah, forget about florida or ohio. >> democratic polling shows clinton up 6 in georgia now in the middle of this hurricane about the tape. see what happens when it settles

down. if clinton's up 6 at any point in georgia, a crazy election. quickly before we go, part of this conversation, mike pence at a town hall last night. proof that this will not be settled. even if trump wins this, what is the republican party? who is the republican party? where do we plant our flag in the republican party will continue. watch this. >> for me personally, if hillary clinton gets in, i myself, i'm ready for a revolution, because we can't have her in. >> yeah. don't say that. >> i'm just saying it. >> ooh -- oh, no! >> we -- >> donald trump's running mate, that's enough. he didn't need that we interviewed voters in georgia a couple weeks ago talking about which militia should they join to be ready? not saying this is more than a fringe discussion but a part of the discussion. >> we laugh ap it sometimes but the serious. whoever wins the election has to try the thing called governing. see it out in the country. again, if one of them wins in a

blowout, at least you can claim a mandate. if the people out there don't like the results, even if it's a blowout, they can -- >> this, to me, the scariest part where we are now. if you remember, in the primary, when it looked like donald trump was going to have a challenge from ted cruz. this is what happened. started saying the selection is rigged. delegates will come out with knives, take me down. to ferment this revolutionary anger and now is doing the same thing. that it looks like he may not be able to pull this off. fomenting this kind of anger. combine that, sorry to read this into it, combine that with controversial suggestions for example about second amendment people excessing their rights, gets scary. that's why responsible republicans like mike pence have to say, whoa. and have to correct those voters when they start to. >> elections are supposed to settle these debates. not add logs to the fire of these debates. we'll see. sit tight. campaign 2016, a cold war spy?

all this hacking really a russian plot to put donald trump? the white house? hillary clinton says, yes. hear the creme likremlin's answ.

welcome back. final weeks of our presidential campaign at times seem ripped from a tom clancy novel. now talk russia may be behind leaking e-mails from hillary clinton with the fbi. in a joint statement from the director of national intelligence and department of homeland security saying bluntly, "only russia's most senior officials could have authorized these activities." one of cnn's best at the kremlin

today. christiane amanpour sat down with serge lavrov. not true, he says, while working in a little swipe at president obama. >> well, it's flattering, of course, to get this kind of attention where a regional power as president obama called us some time ago, now everybody in the united states is saying that it is russia which is running the united nations presidential debate. it's flattering, as i said, but it has nothing, you know, to be -- to be explained by the feds. >> i mean, again -- again, this would be hilarious if we weren't talking about what the white house insists is firm evidence another state, another government, in a not so friendly government at the hoemt, is int moment is interfering with the u.s. election. this is nuts. >> it is nuts.

i mean, trump's response to this is what hacking? or maybe a 400 guy sitting on a bed somewhere, and you can see the hillary clinton diverting away from what the wikileaks are saying particularly in a primary, you really want to focus on this. it's scary, dangerous. if a different campaign, there would be a lot of alarm around this, and much more focus on it, but given the nature of this campaign it's seen as a political ploy by both sides. >> right. they don't acknowledge authenticity of these e-mails and should be explaining, wasn't as bad as donald trump says but why e-mailing with the justice department in the middle of this investigation? what did chelsea clinton mean cashing in on her father's name? the clinton campaign should be explaining, not just hacked e-mails. can't say if it's true or not. john podesta, now the hillary clinton chairman came back on

the plane last night to explain this way. >> why? why would there be this active engagement by the russians at the dnc and other democratic organizations in the private e-mail account? >> i think you could start by looking at the positions that mr. trump has taken during the course of this campaign. one more consistent with russia's foreign policy than u.s. foreign policy. >> so he's trying to lay this all on, that donald trump is in cahoots with the russians or at least on the same page at the russians, that's why the russians are doing this. >> we spoke with vladimir pozner, his own theory, admitted he believes putin thinks he could push trump around much more easily, yet still denied he believes putin wants trump to be president, because he doesn't think that trump is stable. a deeper question gets to the question of, who do you believe? the clinton campaign ought to have is a home run response. who do you believe? the u.s. government or the

russians, who denied this. you would think americans would automatically believe the government. we're in an era that's not necessarily true. people aren't necessarily going to take the word of intelligence agencies. so it's not insane for the trump campaign to make their argument. >> at the same time, clinton is kind of gliding past some of this, because they do have that to hang it on. because they can say, you know, we can't verify any of this, but also not denying it. >> right. >> that is because donald trump has made statements favorable to russia and because we have seen several hacks where the russians were suspected to be behind them, and because the government itself, obama, has come out and said that we think that, you know, this is orchestrated from the highest levels. the president wouldn't say that if they weren't studying it for weeks, a high level of information, and it actually was happening. >> to your point, trump went on larry king. show sponsored by russian television. paid for by russian television. the middle of one campaign controversy coming up before,

and jim sciutto did a great report yesterday about donald trump bringing something up at a rally. play it for you here and then explain on the other side why it's, shall we say, not true. >> blumenthal writes -- just came out a little while ago. clinton was in charge of the state department, and it failed to protect the united states personnel at an american consulate in libya. he meant benghazi. if the gop wants to raise that as a talking point against her, it is legitimate. in other words, now admitting they could have done something about benghazi. >> that is not sydney blooth bll longtime hillary clinton supporter. lifted from a story, reported on in a russian outlet. reported as a sydney blumenthal e-mail and the republican nominee for president of the united states, who in 27 days could be president-elect is quoting from crazy, russian

reports that are wrong. flat out wrong. want to be a conspiracy theorist, not the first time he's done this either. why is donald trump getting news from russian sources? >> even if you don't want to be a conspiracy theorist. interesting, pointing to the complexity of the story and the problem republicans have in mining it. all of these communications john podesta had, it's complicated, intrapersonal relationships. no smoking guns. fascinating, awkward details, facts like a dozen hillary clinton advisors argued whether the candidate should tell a joke. nothing as devastating as a candidate talking about assaulting women. nothing about it. >> bragging about assaulting women. vladimir putin said for the corrected, the whole hysteria is aimed at making the american, the voters forget about the ma

l manipulation. and if russians are doing this as our government says they are, what's the intent? >> a fascinating window into the internal clinton operations, but it is a bit odd and raises the question where that is coming from. interesting, too, sergei lav lolavrov presented that button. intertangled relationships that lead us to sort of, where we are in this. and trump, you know, cited the "national enquirer" as a legitimate news source. grazed this area to whatever is for his benefit. >> newt gingrich said, stay off twitter. maybe stay off the internet. sit tight. up next, can appear at times an unfair fight. hitting the trail and places and issues democrats see at critical. jack be nimble, jack be quick, jack knocked over a candlestick

onto the shag carpeting... ...and his pants ignited into flames, causing him to stop, drop and roll. luckily jack recently had geico help him with renters insurance. because all his belongings went up in flames. jack got full replacement and now has new pants he ordered from banana republic. visit geico.com and see how affordable renters insurance can be.

entually killing one-third of spending them.ons. addicting 17,000 california kids each year.ev now tobacco companies are spending millions to... defeat prop 56. because in every state that's raised tobacco taxes, smoking rates go down. so who are you going to trust? pediatricians, cancer groups and the califronia pta who all... support prop 56. or the tobacco companies trying to kill it. vote yes on 56. welcome back. the final days of a presidential campaign are one big blur. nonstop events. charges flying back and forth.

one for debate, millions in tv ads. you need to slow down the game, as an athlete puts it, few simple truths to focus on. trump can't win without florida. north carolina another tell tale state. trump can't afford to lose it. to win it, hillary clinton needs high african-american turnout. helps to have powerful friends. >> you don't have to be a husband or a father to hear what we heard just a few days ago, and say, that's not right. you just have to be a decent human being to say, that's not right. and if it -- if it makes you mad, if you say, that's not somebody i want representing the united states of america, you can do something about it, north carolina! >> greensboro, north carolina, to the folks trying to slow the game down at home. see events, look at the corner, see where they are, go online

and look. why does it matter? on the margins, all about turnout. >> it is. and in many ways, in this campaign and a state like north carolina, it's about the white vote more than the black vote. in ways look at what obama was able to do in 2012, 80% of eligible black voters showed up voted 97% for obama. he did terribly with white voters there. the hillary clinton campaigns they can keep that obama coalition together, draw out african-american supporters in the saum way and do better with white voters. some of whom are in places like greensboro, mecklenburg county, charlotte, more urban areas. listen, the polls look pretty good for her. it looks like north carolina might be an easier place to win with its 14 electoral votes versus ohio which is 18. >> changing, the democrats increasingly, state's more diverse, trending more democratic. where we continue the kor

conversation, a little more of the president. this is personal for him. trump the cheerleader for the birther movement. yes he wants a democratic successor. but there's more to it you can tell listening to the president. >> he might be up at i guess 3:00 a.m., because he's tweeting at someone that got under his skin instead of sleeping to be ready in the morning to do the job of the president of the united states. >> he's having fun. >> he relishes this and shows the power of the clinton campaign surrogates. you know, donald trump does not have anybody advocating for him. they're at war with him. you know? so you have the president of the united states out there, and he's honestly a lot better campaigner than hillary clinton is. he's out there advocating on her behalf and you have biden an warren and a whole 4ri689 of people. >> like you said, though it is really personal for him and you see that in how he's speaking to some of the audiences that, this

is a vote about my legacy. and specifically speaking to african-americans as well. reminding them of the long struggle for equal rights, and for voting rights. and you know, he does -- he does relish it, but i think that's part of who obama was. the same in '08, but feels an additional personal element to it because of who the republican nominee is and because of that history and the way trump handled it by just kind of digging in on it. his family finds it insulting. >> whether you love him or hate him and people do both, he's the only guy in the country with the stature to do what he's doing and have the swat he's having making a remark like that and when he talks about trump's lack of discipline a guy who has been dismoneyed, as far as i can tell is being disciplined about his time this fall. focusing on african-americans and young people, he thinks he can bring it home to help

hillary clinton. >> and those saying i want something new, looking at gary johnson, jill stein. i covered the bill clinton white house. a great deal of dysfunction between the vice president many job, al gore and first lady's job. hillary clinton had health care a big portfolio, traveled the world. al gore didn't like that. bygones are bygones. >> let's remember what's at stake. i'm running against a guy who denies science, denies climate change, says it's a hoax created by the chinese! >> your vote really, really, really counts. a lot. you -- you can consider me as an exhibit a of that group. >> the crowd was chanting at one point, you won, you won, to al gore. you know, some people still debate that, but al gore lost florida, pretty big state, by

537 votes. and the case went to the supreme court for those who young to remember. he is exhibit a. whether a democrat, republican, green party, libertarian, independent, retgister, vote. al gore is an example for everybody. >> don't get lethargic, it's not won yet trying to play into the crowd maybe mow soar than the millennials. al gore had to explain 2002. some may not remember, may not have been born. >> oh, i do. >> and potentially he's millennials who don't remember how devastating it was to al gore, and the different trajectory our nation's history could have taken and now you see a lot of young voters, millennials potentially gravitating into the third party column. half unaffiliated. >> sunday "new york times" article, mark leibovich, great reporter, writer, interviewed hillary clinton. you want to read it. told people i'm the last thing

standing between you and the apocalypse and says if running against another republican we'd have disagreements. don't get me wrong. i would try to make my case vigorously but bown go to bed with a knot in the middle of my stomach. if this was mitt romney or bush, i'd be okay. trying to make the case, saying this is genuine, she thinks donald trump is dangerous. >> back when the clinton campaign thought they were going to be facing somebody else, before the primaries, they were thinking in more conventional terms. thinking about al gore's issue. this was going to be a campaign about something like climate change, draw clear contrast with republicans and fight it on policies and issues and are clearly in a very different campaign. you sense that in hillary clinton, little flashes of it, she's been very controlled in most of her public appearances, but when you see a little emotion come through it's often -- often anger. >> i joke with these guys before every show. talk about the earned income tax

cred is or social security, the education plans. 's personal stuff overtaken the policy. a shame, actually. i like policy. next, it's okay because he's closer to god or because hillary clinton supports abortion rights. republicans backing trump are digging deep to justify sticking with a candidate who brags about groping women.

not debt. and an economy where every young american can find a job that let's them start a family of their own. i've spent my life fighting for kids and families. i want our success to be measured by theirs. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. welcome back. trying just about every day counting down to election day to give you the state of the race today. the state today is not good for donald trump. a week or so ago the national polls were expectative. hardly a small clinton lead. look at it now. right after the tape was released nbc "washington journal" data showing hillary clinton jumping nationally. donald trump apartment t 35%. devastating. now a 9-point lead for hillary clinton in today's polarized politics, unthinkable.

a landslide. see if the polls change getting through this week. one big reason for the swing, that caught on tape conversation where trump brags repeatedly as groping women. now in republicans are trying to explain why. sam clovis, a trump supporter saying trump has become a lot more christian since that comment in 2005. he says hillary clinton is more abortion rights, worse than anything donald trump could say. and mike pence -- >> donald trump, as i said before, let's you know exactly where he stands. either ot a podium or on his twitter account, and it's no different than the -- the man behind the curtain is the same as the man in front of the curtain. >> that's what frightens republicans. right? you know, i mean, i think for evangelicals and the conservative right, they have all the kind of blocks in the

republican party. they are going to be the ones that have a lot of explaining to do once trump losing. it looks likely he will. for years they've been about family values, claimed a moral majority and moral high ground and here they are rallying behind donald trump. you have some people, christianity today came out with a scathing takedown of donald trump calling him an adoll adulterer. >> you'll have, talking about the republican establishment versus grass roots, substance of that and may have an evangelical crass roots, dr. dobson, tony perksens, ralph reed sticking with donald trump and jerry falwell jr. grass roots saying, wait a minute here. why? agree, some of these people, they see trump at their last

chance at power. they're not young men anymore. >> true for women as well. marjorie with the susan b. anthony list, a trump supporter. wasn't at the beginning's denounced his remarks on the bus and mace a pivot to denouncing alleged crimes of hillary clinton as the trump campaign would have it, often incorre incorrectly. they make that pivot. i will say when interviewing trump voters, they also easily make that pivot. say something about trump, they'll easily come back at you with something about hillary clinton, but does that persuade anyone who isn't already persuaded? >> the thing about bill clinton, remember, the same type of things bill clinton did they thought merited not only an investigation but also improvement, although they say that was about lying under oath. you had an investigation in the first place because of moral outrage over his conduct. the problem with donald trump, we know that this is his character. because it's not just this tape. we're all focused on the tape

because of salacious audio but also amazingly colorful journalistic pieces coming outside how he treated women on "the apprentice," on his miss universe patchant. wa pageant. walking in or naked 15-year-olds. >> that story saying at miss universe and miss teen usa, young women as young as 15 years old, donald trump walking in, don't worry, laid. seen all this before. contestants found 2 creit creep others saying he's the boss of the pageant. and the president's rally, too, people chanting bill clinton's a rapist at the rally. and jim acosta outside a democratic protestors playing audio of the donald trump groping tape as people show up for the donald trump rally. welcome to the substantive-based issues of the campaign. it gets hard for people, trump surrogates, to go on tv and

explain. listen to brianna keilar trying to ask ben carson about this yesterday. >> as i was growing up, people were always trying to talk about their sexual conquest, and trying to make themselves appear, you know, like the -- don -- casanova. i -- i'm surprised you haven't heard that. i really am. >> i haven't heard it and i know a lot of people who have not heard it. and i -- >> maybe that's the problem. maybe that's the problem. >> the problem is, a female television anchor hasn't heard men bragging about their sexual conquests. got it. >> this is a terrible time. to be on tv and have to answer these questionses about their nominee. the guy they've supported in this situation. i would be interested, too, to sam clovis' point, hear donald trump talk about him finding religion. >> yeah. >> a guy who met marla maples in the pews of a church while

married to ivana trump, his first wife. so, i mean, this idea that trump is suddenly, had some change over the past year is not something that he is owning up to. >> i've heard men talk about sex. i have not heard men talk about sexual assault, rudy giuliani, i believed, acknowledged what trump was describing was assault and trump's defense is, i just made that up to impress someone. i didn't actually do it, and if that's your defense, that i make stuff up to impress people and this is what i make up? >> maybe up assault? a key distinction, when all of this is thrown up, people say locker room, locker many radio, he was bragging about something that was a crime. >> impressing billy bush. up next, what looms on the horizon months after the election, no matter who wins. tus romantic, why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night.

sit around the "inside politics" table, get you out the big political news just around the corner. >> hillary clinton shat erg the glass ceiling isn't enough. the race expanding the map is not just about winning but governing. the race so contentious and personal, might be hard if she doesn't have a big majority in congress. those who try to follow behind letter could be grave and looking at data from the world economic forum showing even though women made strides, out of 142 nations, 62 had women heads but only served -- two-thirds served less than four years. when the door opens, often closes behind these women. >> interesting. keep an eye on down ballot races? >> and something inconceivable a couple weeks ago. 20 -- 26 house seats where

republicans hold right now, but barack obama won that in 2012. look for those, where democrats will focus. people like mike kaufman, suburbs of denver, bab bra comstock in virginia outside of washington, d.c. if there's going to about landsli landslide. those are the seats to fall. a poll show the demming with a seven-point margin gentleman makely for voters that want democrats to have majority. that grew to 12 points, if the person supported donald trump. so those ads are going to be hammering people and support for donald trump. >> 27 days. steve? >> heidi's point underlines it's not too early to think about what happens after the election in this country. the clinton biographer, historian on the program this week said whatever happens, whoever wins, whatever the people want i don't think they're going to get, because people are so frustrated in this country. it's a moment of great transition. concerned about the disillusion of the country.

i don't think he means the whole country but the institutions, bonds, relationships we've had so long. in a period of transition. this election will not end the story. >> great point. clinton wins, disappoint liberals, conservative angst. trump wins, chaos in the republican party. great point. >> clear politics has been tracking a general election poll for quite some time. polls. go back until may, 200 polls rcp has on their website. out of all of those polls, trump only has led in 20 of those polls. the rest about 180, hillary clinton has led in all of them. the ones that donald trump led in are kind of iffy polls, like rasmussen and the "l.a. times" poll. why we don't hear trump talking much about polls at this point. interesting to see if there are any other 0 national matchups where donald trump actually leads in the polls. most seem outliers. >> agree, a bit of a contrarian.

democrats looking at this week's poll numbers, time to measure the white house drapes, or polish up the resume for the clinton transition people. yes, a terrible, horrible, miserable week for trump. today's numbers may have a limited shelf life, thinking congressional races. landslide down ballot. wild swings after after shocking releases of things like that groping tape. weeks later, like testing the water after a hurricane is downgraded to a tropical storm. outlook bleak. no question, outlook for trump is bleak. wait until the weekend or early next week have a better sense of just how steep that hill is. thanks for joining us on "inside politics." brianna keilar in for wolf, and she starts right after this quick break.
