the process has been going back and forth, i've been at this process for two years, they're telling me i just have to wait one more year and then they'll make a decision on to whether i can have this case resolved or not. in the meantime, within 30 days of my first collection letter, they ruined my credit with all three bureaus, and 30 -- three months after that, the treasury department tacked on this interest, and is coming after me for my civilian wages. >> hmm. you know, to the audience out there we don't tell you what to do. but all of you say you support men like the ones on your screen right now. i got to tell you, you're not talking about this issue the way you're throwing bombs at trump and clinton, and engaging in the election that way, think about this when you think about supporting the troops. gentlemen, thank you for your service. thank you for being here. we'll stay on this. that's a guarantee. >> thank you. >> there's a lot of news this morning. let's get right to it. >> you vote for her, you're crazy, okay? >> he's run a campaign based on insults. his final target is democracy itself.

>> killing obamacare is just one more way that our system is rigged. >> i'd like to take him behind the gym if i were in high school. >> wouldn't you? i'd love that. this is a tough guy. he's mr. tough guy. >> i see her in an orange jumpsuit. i'd have prosecuted her a year ago and probably convicted her by now. >> this is a crossroads likz. i want to wake up in the white house. >> this is "new day." with chris cuomo, and alisyn camerota. >> good morning. welcome to your "new day." hillary clinton and donald trump are in florida. it is a must-win battleground state. 29 electorals up for the grab. a new poll shows trump in the lead for the first time in weeks, and he is seizing on rising obamacare premiums to try to attack clinton. this as new hacked e-mails show clinton's use of private e-mail sent the white house and her campaign scrambling. >> we also have donald trump

himself talking about his fear of losing and his fixation with fame in some fascinating new tapes that we'll play for you. there's a lot at stake so we are now just 13 days from election day. let's begin our coverage with cnn's senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny. he is live in lake worth, florida. good morning, jeff. >> good morning, alisyn. we're here in palm beach county, florida, the center of all democratic activity here. hillary clinton is trying to get out the early vote to maintain her momentum here. but she's beginning a two-day swing. donald trump is just ending a three-day campaign swing here in florida. this is a key part of his comeback plan. that's a plan she is trying to block. >> reporter: it is so great to be back in florida. >> we're going to win the state of florida. >> reporter: hillary clinton and donald trump in a relentless fight for the golden prize of florida's 29 electoral votes. trump mincing no words on his view of those who choose clinton. >> tell you what, you vote for her, you're crazy.

okay, she is the worst. >> reporter: clinton releasing a new campaign ad narrated by morgan freeman laying out a stark choice. >> a steady hand or a loose canon. >> reporter: a new cnn/orc poll show seven in ten americans believe that clinton will win the white house. she's dismissing the poll, but for different reasons than trump. >> it is going to be a close election. pay no attention to the polls. don't get complacent. >> reporter: with 13 days to go, trump trying to turn the tables. seizing on news of skyrocketing health care premiums for obama care. >> the rates are going through the sky. >> reporter: yet, trump's argument that his employees were being crushed by obama care quickly fell apart. most don't get insurance under the affordable care act. a point he struggled to explain. >> it's a small group, but it's a group that's having tremendous problems with obama care because of what's going on with the premiums and what's going on

with the deductibles. >> reporter: in a miami radio interview clinton said millions of americans now have health care under the law, but acknowledged major shortcomings that should be fixed, not repealed. >> the costs have gone up too much. we're going to really tackle that. >> reporter: an 11th hour political headache hitting voters in the pocketbooks. clinton ignoring health care at her rally trying to keep the focus on trump and whether he's fit for office. >> americans are coming together. at the very moment when donald trump is making an unprecedented attack on our democracy. >> reporter: former republican secretary of state colin powell throwing his support behind clinton. she tweeted that she's proud to have the endorsement of a decorated soldier and distinguished statesman. all this as trump and vice president biden trade fighting words. >> the press always ask me don't i wish i were debating him. no, i wish we were in high school, i could take him behind the gym. that's what i wish. >> did you see where biden wants to take me to the back of the barn. me. he wants to. i'd love that.

i'd love that. mr. tough guy. you know, he's mr. tough guy. >> now there are no brawls on the schedule between the vice president and donald trump but perhaps that would be a fitting end to this ugly campaign. but, chris, until then, hillary clinton is waiting up in miami, her 69th birthday today. that makes her one year younger than donald trump at 70. she had the last fund-raiser of her campaign last night in miami. also went to an adele concert. adele said everyone in the audience should support hillary clinton, of course, she cannot. she's not a u.s. citizen. but donald trump for his part today is in washington, d.c. this morning, attending the grand opening of his hotel there, before he gets back to a key battleground state, another battleground state, in north carolina later this afternoon. chris? >> all right, jeff. here to make the case for donald trump is former new york city mayor and trump senior adviser

rudy giuliani. mr. mayor. >> chris, nice to see you again. >> good to see you smiling. at the al smith dinner the other night, you looked like grumpy cat. you were upset. you had -- you didn't like the jokes that hillary clinton -- >> it wasn't so much the joke -- you know what it was? >> you said you want to see her in an orange jumpsuit and be convicted by now if you were prosecutor. >> yeah, true. >> where is this coming from? >> coming from being u.s. attorney for five years, and assistant u.s. attorney for six years. and federal investigator for two. law clerk. the crimes she committed are so many, and i see a general like cartwright get prosecuted for confirming two classified documents that had already been out there. and i see her, having given classified documents to people without classification, a lot of those people on her staff, straight out federal crime -- >> but you know -- >> extremely careless in the handling of classified information amounts to the crime of gross negligence. >> but that's not what comey

said. -- >> i can have my own opinion. he used to work for me. >> i look. i know you know him. i know you respect him. >> i can have my own opinion. >> but you seems like you are feeding the trump argument that it was fixed. that it was rigged. that comey should have brought a case and didn't on purpose. >> well, first of all -- >> you mean that. >> i mean the first part not the second. he should have brought a case. >> that's your opinion that he should have brought a case. >> 100%. >> but you don't think that james comey -- >> -- any lawyer in america that he should have brought the case. >> fine but you're too smart for me to have that argument -- >> i win that argument -- >> donald trump says that he this rt fbi rigged it for clinton, the doj rigged it for clinton. do you agree with that? >> i can't agree with that because i have no facts to prove it other than the logical analysis of the facts that she destroyed 33,000 e-mails after getting congressional subpoenas. that's like an automatic indictment. >> she didn't. right? >> people under her control.

the statute says -- >> although the fbi determined in giving the guy an immunity deal and they both know why he did that, they thought he was going to give up the chain, they decided he essentially went rogue and deleted these things after the subpoena because he was supposed to delete them before. >> she wasn't careful enough -- >> he says you don't prosecute that statute under gross negligence, they have to show that you lied to the fbi, they have to show intent -- >> no, no, there's a gross negligent statute under which there have been 12 or 15 prosecutions. >> over like 100 years. >> yeah. >> it's an old law and they don't usually prosecute it -- >> -- of this dimension. >> he didn't agree with you. which is fine. you're a brilliant legal mind. i'm not making that case. i'm saying donald trump suggests he did it on purpose. he rigged it. do you think it's responsible for him to say that? >> i think it is based on the facts of things like the number two guy in the investigation turns out to have gotten

$675,000 -- >> he didn't get a penny. >> his wife got the money. >> i mean, rudy -- >> what -- >> my entire life because you're so accurate and all of a sudden you're in trump land and the facts are all over the place. he didn't get a penny. >> they filed joint tax returns -- >> it was a campaign contribution. >> of $675,000 -- >> he gave similar amounts to other candidates. >> wait, wait. let's get the facts straight. >> yes, let's. >> even the head of the washington office -- >> not when she got the money. >> wait a second. under investigation of the time was a person named mcauliffe for illegal campaign contributions. an investigation -- >> false. hold on, hold on a second. >> she should -- >> that's different than -- take up your beef with the fbi director's wife. not with terry mcauliffe. >> that's the last guy you should put -- >> hold on a second. hold on. i'm saying let's keep it straight. you started by saying mcauliffe essentially was paying off the fbi guy. he gave a campaign contribution to his wife and it happened before the fbi guy was within

1,000 miles of the of the hillary clinton e-mail investigation. >> the fbi guy is in -- his wife is in mcauliffe's pocket, one could argue. mcauliffe gets promoted -- the guy gets promoted from head of the office, he never should have gotten in the first place because mcauliffe was under investigation in that office. that campaign contribution straight conflict -- >> you're not even close to connecting anything yet. >> what? >> you're not close. >> if i'm under investigation by the fbi -- >> right. >> and my wife is running for office. >> right. >> the guy running the investigation gets a $675,000 contribution from my wife, that is a conflict of interest. >> yeah but you, first of all -- >> here's what happened. >> you guys are so darn unfair to trump. >> let's -- >> i swear to god. >> rudy you -- >> if that happened to a democrat -- >> -- because you don't like the facts. >> mcdonald did a tenth of that -- >> you're ago that mcauliffe interfered in the investigation by giving this guy money -- >> i'm saying he created i massive appearance of impropriety. >> only in your reckoning because you got the timing all

wrong. -- >> timing wrong. >> -- in the job at the time that he donated to his wife when mcauliffe gave the money -- >> and then he got promoted. >> to the fbi guy's wife -- >> yeah. >> once they had it. >> so you think that -- you think that mcauliffe had the foresight -- >> this is the guy -- >> to pay off a wife of a guy who was going to get promoted some months later -- >> number one -- >> they weren't even looking at hillary clinton yet. >> he paid off a guy who was handling his investigation -- >> this is -- >> even worse. the washington field office is investigating mcauliffe for illegal campaign contributions in falsifying foreign donors -- >> that has nothing to do with hillary clinton. zero. >> but it has to do with the fact that the payment was a conflict of interest. >> but you said it out this way rudy -- >> wait, wait, wait, let me finish. >> -- mcauliffe paid off the fbi. >> give me the courtesy -- >> but i have to clarify -- >> i'm the head of the fbi and i'm going to select my number three guy and my number two guy for this investigation.

i go select a guy who got a $675,000 contribution -- >> he didn't get it. his wife got it. >> for his wife. for his wife to run that investigation. and i don't think that's -- >> and it was over several months. >> several months. >> that's how campaigns work. >> the last -- >> it was a campaign. >> there are 14,000 fbi agents. you go pick the guy that got $675,000 -- >> rudy for this to have to be true -- by the way, this is the way we talk. it's not me cutting you off. you're giving a fact i'm trying to counter that fact -- >> that's a massive fact -- >> you've got the timing wrong. this all happened -- >> the timing is not wrong. the timing is right on target. >> when did she get the money? >> he got the -- she got the money in three stages. >> right. >> actually, about 60% of it after he was in the new york -- in the washington office. >> no but he had nothing to do with this case. >> yes he did. >> no when he got the money -- when she got the money -- >> it doesn't matter. >> it has to matter. for you to be right mcauliffe -- see i would never roll my eyes

at you by the way -- mcauliffe would have had to know that this guy was going -- >> you're investigating me. i get a $67 aof 5,000 contribution for your wife. you should have recused yourself for the case if you're an honorable -- >> he went and got an ethics opinion about what to do and what not to do from the fbi. >> bull. ethics opinion is complete bull -- >> you're saying he didn't do it. >> you can't get a $675,000 -- now the guy is a perfect pigeon. >> but he wasn't investigating mcauliffe. >> of all the fbi agents you pick you pick that guy. >> it sounds like a conspiracy. >> that isn't the only thing. then the president meets with the attorney general five days before the interview over the fourth of july. then we have the interview over the fourth of july weekend, and the report is written three days later. i've written a lot of those reports. that report didn't get written in three days. that report was written two weeks before. then i can take that report, chris, i can rip that report

apart. she's asked the following question. do you know what "c" means on a sensitive government document? she says no. i thought it was in alphabetical order. here's the next question, did you see an "a," a "b," an "e" or an "f"? no such question. fbi laid down interview. number two, she says i can't remember my exit interview from the fbi because i lost my memory. my question as an investigator immediately is show me the doctor's record. i hear within the fbi they asked to see the doctor's records and they were told they can't see them. i'm not going to take the witness's word -- >> you're also not going to indict her on that basis either. >> i'm not going to make a decision before i see the records. >> you can criticize the investigation but this mcauliffe stuff is farfetched at -- >> no it is not far touched -- >> conspiracyial in the main. >> it's not -- >> the timing is wrong rudy. >> comey should not have selected the number three number two guy whose wife had gotten $675,000 for the guy who used to sell the lincoln bedroom to the clintons. >> but the timing doesn't match up. people can look it up for

themselves. wait who is a three dollar bill? >> mcauliffe. the guy was selling the lincoln bedroom. >> look i'm just saying you guys throw out there -- you throw out there -- >> i'm not throwing out there. those are facts. >> no, no, no. the timing is a fact also. and she got campaign contributions before he was ever not only in a position -- >> she's sitting there -- >> -- the e-mail investigation. >> she is indebted to mcauliffe for one-third to half of the funds -- >> i'm just saying i don't see how you connect that money to what that guy did in the investigation when he wasn't even there. and then yesterday you want to talk about things that are obvious and deceptive, your man trump goes out brings out employees and says look how my employees who love me by the way are suffering under obamacare. none is on obamacare. >> that i don't know about. >> now you do. >> that means he either doesn't know what obamacare is or he doesn't know what's going on in his own business. is that relevant? >> i don't know the answer to whether they were on obamacare -- >> they're not. they're not.

>> or are they tangentially suffering -- >> the guy who runs his business 99% get private insurance. >> the issue whether he got that right or wrong, obamacare is a massive, crazy disaster according to bill clinton. it is bankrupt. it's going bankrupt. the rates are going up from 25% to as much as 86%. and the deductibles are $5,000 to $6,000. who uses up $5,000 to $6,000 in deductibles. >> here's the problem -- >> it's obama fraud. >> obamacare has a lot of problems. >> you can keep your doctor. you can keep your insurance. lie, lie -- >> obamacare has problems. >> big lie. >> obamacare has problems. okay? everybody knew it was going to have problems. >> unaffordable care act. >> there are a lot of problems. the gop wouldn't work to fix any of them. this is political. >> they wouldn't negotiate with the gop. they wouldn't even negotiate tort reform with the gop. >> and as a result because the democrats forced this down the republicans' throat the aca, they decided to punish them. and they won't work with the democrats to fix any of the

problems that they could fix. >> oh, that's a bunch of nonsense. they created it themselves. they cut out bipartisan support. >> i know. >> they pushed it through. >> i said they passed it without the gop. i said that. >> but they wouldn't accept any compromises. >> since then they refuse to work on it. all the republican -- >> -- tort reform. >> -- to throw it out. >> ryan offered tort reform. he was told trial lawyers -- >> that has nothing to do with this. >> of course tort reform has something to do with it. you want to fix the health insurance, i had to fix the health insurance. you change the tax deduction. it give it to people individually. you let people buy it in 50 markets. and the massive market in insurance will bring the price down. the way the price applies to -- >> only way you bring it down as you know is by -- >> -- by taking over. >> you have to lock down the providers. you have to find the holes where they run through it and you have to fix it. the government won't do it. >> locking people down causes monopolies which drive prices up.

large markets break up monopolies and bring prices down. >> you guys are talking about the aca like it is an epidemic in this country and you are suggesting that it is a majority problem when you know that the people who are affected by these subsidies -- by these raises at the end of the day in the individual market are very small fraction of the people looking for health care in this country. not that it doesn't have to be fixed. not that it's not a problem. but you make it sound like it's half the country you're dealing with. >> no i don't. in fact you didn't even cover all the people in the country which i thought was ridiculous. if he's going to cover the situation, cover the situation. he's causing a massive problem -- >> you've got more people covered by insurance in this country now than ever before. >> 53%, 54% of the people, 53%, 54% of the people who pay taxes are paying for it. we're paying the overage. we're paying the surplus. plus, you know what these deductibles are? 4,000, 5,000, 6,000. you know how sick you have to be. when is the last time you used $4,000 or $5,000 in health insurance for yourself. >> god forbid, right. i don't --

>> it's a sucker game. it's a sucker game. >> it's not a sucker game. it's that this system is not working because -- >> because obama -- >> you don't have anybody trying to make it better is what i'm saying. >> -- blame obama care on the republicans. >> i'm not doing that. >> when obamacare was doing well, hillary went around saying it's really hillary care. >> but i'm not doing that. i think this is a problem with this dialogue -- >> 100%. >> you have not heard me blame the republicans -- >> yes, you did. >> for obamacare. >> because -- >> you heard me say that the democrats forced the aca down the throats of the gop, did not work with them. they rushed it through. that's the only way they thought they'd get it through -- >> compromise -- >> i'm saying since then the gop has said we're not working on this at all. we're not fixing any of this. we're getting rid of it. >> it's a disaster. >> i got to tell you we scrubbed trump's plan on what this repeal and replace is, he doesn't have a replacement plan that makes it better. >> there is a replacement -- >> you can replace anything any way you want but he doesn't have a plan that course all these

people and makes it cheaper. >> i believe in large markets. the thing that bring prices down are large markets. localizing it to one state, saying i can only buy insurance in new york, it's a monopoly -- >> they're trying to expand now -- >> they won't do that -- >> it's a comprehensive program that allows me to buy in any state i want to buy -- >> you going to take medicaid away from the states? >> no medicaid is medicaid. it goes to poor people. it should be bloc granted. they should be able to handle it. the governors should be able to handle it -- >> and when they don't expand you end up -- >> we're not even talking about insurance for the poorest people. they have medicaid. they're untouched. we're talking about people in the middle category -- >> and more of them are kofrd now for ever before. >> for numbers that are ridiculous. and numbers next year that would be more ridiculous -- >> which you could fix. >> not a good fix -- >> i'm saying you could fix. >> you could not fix it. unless you fix the whole market. >> another thing. while i have you here. the polls are -- >> and you have to change the tax deduction.

critical -- >> that's another fix that could be made. >> that -- well they don't want to do it. >> the republicans don't want to do it. >> the republicans are in favor of it. >> i'm saying they won't work on -- >> -- will not negotiate on the basic theory of obama care which is locking in to monopoly in one state. if you do that, prices will sky rocket. >> the polls are -- >> skies the limit. >> the polls are rigged. that's what we're hearing right now. the polls are rigged. you say they're -- democrats not true. >> the polls are rigged. >> yeah, polls are rigged. don't believe them. donald trump says they're only asking democrats. it's not true. you said the same thing. >> i don't know. i haven't looked at the polls. i see him up 3% in florida. maybe that's rigged. i don't know. i see him down three points -- >> first of all none of these polls were rigged when trump was up. when he would come on this show all he'd talk about was polls. >> i see polls all over the place. >> all he'd talk about were the polls. now they're all rigged. >> i see the most accurate polls daily.

most accurate he's up by two points. >> first of all abc's poll was more accurate than ibd in the last election. they've got clinton up 12 right now. >> it's my information that the last three elections are -- >> it's wrong. there's a lot of wrong b.s. going on in this race. that's why i'm having you here. by the way ibd has clinton up one right now. >> okay so she's up one right now. one point is nothing. >> no, no, no. absolutely. we know that very well. >> anything within three or four points the election could go either way. >> -- in this election. investment business daily, the best poll that's why i'm up in it. now clinton is up. is it still the best poll? >> sure i guess. if it is or it isn't. you're telling me -- >> abc beat it in the last race. >> if you tell me he's down by one point in that poll, i say -- >> and he says -- you know that the way it works in polls is let's say you've got 35% democrats and 29% republicans -- >> they can come out any way i

want -- >> what they do -- that's why it's called a science they take that 35 and wind up blending it down so it's equal and impacted to 29 -- >> you're talking to a guy who on election day in 1993 was down by 6% in the exit polls and won by 3. >> that's about turnout. >> that -- >> that's about turnout -- >> -- i won by three points. >> of course -- >> i don't -- >> he's saying they're rigged. >> i look at them, i find much more effective for example, this weekend i'm going to go to pennsylvania. >> mm-hmm. >> i'm going to go to the counties around pennsylvania. i will find out a lot better by campaigning there whether there's a chance to crack through in pennsylvania -- >> but you don't say it's rigged, right? he keeps saying it's rigged. >> look what i -- >> you understand how that undermines coughs in the system. >> when i hear rigged did >> that's rigged -- >> he's talking about the media -- >> that covered him more than

anybody else and helped his rise -- >> but a tremendous amount of unfair coverage. a tremendous amount of -- >> because of what comes out of his mouth, rudy. not because of what they make up. >> and there's a lot of stuff about her that isn't caricatured dsht >> what have we not covered about clinton? she's been covered for 20 years. >> if he said some things he wanted to make fun of she committed some crimes that are astounding that take your breath away. >> fbi said no crimes that can be prosecuted. >> the fbi made a colossal mistake that is an embarrassment to the fbi. she troid 33,000 e-mails. she had somebody with a hammer hammering 13 cell phones. don't tell me that's not a criminal act, chris. >> it's not a criminal act. >> or i have to give up my law license. >> it's not -- >> she lied -- >> it's not necessarily a criminal act you know that -- >> on a government document meant confidential she shouldn't have been secretary of state. she knew what it meant. >> fair criticism. >> she's like. >> it's not a crime. >> to tell the fbi that you don't know what a "c" means confidential when you do is a

lie. >> now you're absolutely -- >> she knew. >> well of course she knew. >> she says she didn't know. >> how could she not know? how could she not know? when she gives the explanation i thought it was an alphabetical order. i cross-examine her and say hillary here's the document. show me the "a." show me the "b." show me the "f." >> that's what would happen at trial. it never happened at trial. >> of course they never indicted her. but they should have. >> rudy giuliani. i appreciate you coming on to make the case for donald trump. >> thank you. >> even though you get me in trouble -- you saying you interrupt me you don't let me finish. that's all i'm going to hear from my mother right now. thank you very much for that. >> i feel like i just lived through thanksgiving day at the cuomo house. >> on a good day. on a good day. >> at your house. chris, thank you very much. [ indiscernible ] mayor giuliani is continuing to argue with chris. let's discuss all of this and so much more with our cnn political

commentators. great to see you ladies. >> thank you. >> okay let's just dive in there to a couple of things that those gentlemen just discussed. obamacare. angela, this is not what the democrats had hoped to be dealing with 13 days before the election. the broken promises of obamacare. president obama said your premiums will go down. now we know that next year premiums on average are going up across the country 22%. this is something that um certainly donald trump has been bringing up and hillary clinton will have to tackle. >> yeah. i think it's not just hillary clinton who has to tackle this it's also congress. the reason we are in the position that we're in right now frankly, alisyn, is because republicans fell short of their promise to repeal which is what they said they wanted to do and replace -- >> but that's not -- hold on a second. president obama promised that if it were passed, premiums would go down. so that has nothing to do with congress. they passed it. and people yums are going up. >> i hear what you're saying and i would say as someone who was a

former congressional hill staffer, capitol hill staffer, i actually know what happened in this process. and the fact of the matter is, obamacare was never a perfect solution. it was put in place and i think president obama in good faith said this thinking that republicans would act in goodwill on behalf of the american people to ensure this would in fact be the case. instead they tried to repeal obamacare 60 times. >> is that why premiums are going up? >> i think it has everything to do with it -- >> why? >> because if you don't work to ensure that something is the best possible solution for the american people they're going to be holes. when you have insurance companies that are part of a market place, and they don't feel like there's any real place to go, you struggle. i think thankfully with hillary clinton's proposals, she now has a solution which would give a tax credit to people who are paying more than 5% of their income on medical expenses but we don't need to repeal it. >> i hear your point. there was never full support for it. they were never all in -- >> there --

>> so -- >> look democrats own this. they voted this straight party, they made this the law of the land, obamacare, and now the american family sitting at home, this is a scenario a lot of people face. they're paying $1,000 for coverage and then they have $4,000 deductibles which they don't reach so they're getting essentially no coverage. they're paying more than they should be paying for health care. and this was the democrats plan from day one. hillary was the mastermind of this with hillary care. now we have obamacare and we need free market solutions. it's unfair for the american family to be paying this. this will affect the likz. >> i do want to talk to you about some good news this morning for donald trump and that is the latest poll that has just been released by bloomberg about florida. so trump is up there 45% to hillary clinton's 43%. what do you think angela i'll go to you, has allowed him to leapfrog her there? >> well, i think there are a number of things. one is it's been a very brutal last couple of weeks i think even for hillary clinton they continue to talk about wikileaks which we know are e-mails that were illegally hacked.

and i think that it's been -- it's been really tough. it's a narrative that's frustrating for the campaign -- >> you think that's actually make be an impact -- >> i think it must be. if you compare actual records, if you compare apples to apples there's no real competition here. so i think that that is a real challenge. i think that also perhaps donald trump has home team advantage he has property in florida. and he spent a lot of time there. >> let's look at a couple of other quick polls and then i can have you comment on all of them in north carolina she's doing very well on the latest poll 0 the energy "times" poll and then in arizona traditionally road state they are neck and neck donald trump at 46% to hillary clinton's 45%. what do you see in these? >> look there's a tight race no doubt about it. i'm very encouraged by what i'm seeing. especially out of florida i saw sean spicer this morning say we're ahead with hispanics in miami-dade with hispanics that's a very big deal. we're ahead in early voting in florida. that's a very big deal. early votes that have been returned. i'm liking what i'm seeing.

i think hillary clinton should get back out on the campaign trail, go talk to voters have a rigorous schedule like donald trump and put the campaign back on the ice because this race isn't over and i think donald trump will win. >> the race is not over. >> actually saying the same thing that the race -- >> i think we all agree. >> she's not at a ribbon cutting this morning opening a hotel. >> reducing her schedule -- >> i want to talk about how donald trump is having a problem with african-american voters and a couple of months ago we heard him making the case to them what do you have to lose? basically your situation in your life is so bad, why not try something different, vote for me. yesterday, he had a little bit of a spin on that same message. listen to this. >> african-americans are living in hell in the inner cities. i mean they're living -- they're living in hell. you walk to the store for a loaf of bread, you get shot. we're going to fix our inner cities. >> he was talking about there african-american voters in inner

cities. does he have a point that their lives could be better and he's saying take a chance with me? >> all of our lives could be better. one of the most fascinating things about this election to me alisyn is that donald trump a real estate mogul, a developer, has talked about inner cities and never once has talked about gentrification. that would have been a good way to segue into a conversation with african-american voters. that's actually productive. i think the other thing that really is shameful, not only to his black outreach team but to other folks on his team, he said this in florida. we lost a young man by the name of trayvon martin in sanford, florida. >> isn't that the point he's making -- >> so let's talk about that. normally when he's talking about inner city violence, alisyn he's talking about black-on-black crime. i'm talking about a rogue vigilante by the name of george zimmerman who shot and killed that boy. >> we're out of time which won't surprise you since you just watched what went on here with giuliani. thank you ladies very much. >> thanks. >> let's get over to chris. >> we're italian so we just finished hugging.

rudy is going to dallas. he's got an incredible schedule over the 1 3 days. we've heard a lot. you heard from former mayor giuliani. let's get the bottom line from david gregory next. ish recipes. one pan, less than 30 minutes. because if they aren't going to eat it, at least you didn't spend too much time making it. campbell's one dish recipes. made for real, real life. of being there for my son's winning shot. that was it for me. that's why i'm quitting with nicorette. only nicorette mini has a patented fast dissolving formula. it starts to relieve sudden cravings fast. every great why needs a great how.

woman: how do we protect them from $4 billion in new cuts to california schools? man: vote yes on proposition 55. woman: prop 55 doesn't raise taxes on anyone. man: not on working californians, not small businesses. no one. woman: instead, prop 55 simply maintains the current tax rate on the wealthiest californians. man: so those who can most afford it continue paying their fair share... woman: ...to prevent new education cuts... man: ...and keep improving california's schools. woman: vote yes on prop 55 to help our children thrive.

all right, rudy giuliani, no surprise, very passionate, making the case for trump. and specifically going after what he believes was a mishandled investigation of hillary clinton's e-mails. moments ago we talked, here's what he said a little bit. >> fbi made a colossal mistake. that is an embarrassment to the fbi. she destroyed 33,000 e-mails. she had somebody with a hammer hammering 13 cell phones. don't tell me that's not a criminal act, chris. >> it's not a criminal act. >> or i have to give up my law license. >> it's not -- >> she lied -- >> it's not necessarily a criminal act you know that -- >> on a government document meant confidential she shouldn't have been secretary of state. she knew what it meant. >> and i said look, fair criticism. if you want to criticize her political acumen, her ability to understand, that's fine. but he keeps supposing that she

was like about things that the fbi never proved that she did. and that makes a difference in the law. let's goat the bottom line from cnn political commentator david gregory. how did you see it, brother? >> first of all, i'm exhausted. just exhausted. that was like one of those old you know mike wallace interviews he did when he used to be smoking and they'd go at each other you know for -- that was very interesting to watch, chris. look, i think a couple of points. one is a political matter. the case that giuliani is making is about clinton's judgment. about potential criminality. about you know, destruction of the e-mails, some 30,000 e-mails, which is an accurate attack on her judgment. i don't think this ends after the election. i think a president clinton faces this in certain quarters in congress among conservatives and really dogs her for awhile. and the american people continue to make a judgment about whether it matters. i don't know that it's going to be persuasive as a political matter among undecided voters who have not already moved over to trump's side of the column here. as a legal matter i think it's striking that a former u.s.

attorney is, you know, saying this was a colossal mistake by the fbi which he may believe but as a former u.s. attorney, would he be talking about all of this? if he made a decision not to prosecute would he think it would be appropriate to leak all of this information as the fbi has done to release all the interviews with witnesses to have an fbi director take the unprecedented step of talking about all the mistakes that he thinks hillary clinton made but it wasn't even a close call? not to prosecute her? i mean it's outrageous that he says he doesn't want his law license taken away but he'll defend what the fbi director has done here in terms of releasing all of this information. so i think that part's really striking. look, the other thing that they're talking about is the notion that the attorney general would make a decision to indict when the fbi didn't think there was a case. and basically end this presidential contest. does rudy giuliani think that would have been appropriate if his guy wouldn't have been the beneficiary of that? i think it's a question. >> david let's talk about the early voting. we have some new numbers to share with the viewers. it is now up to 7.3 million

americans have already voted. that's out of 35 states. 4.6 million of those are in battleground states, the most of them cast in florida which of course is very interesting, that's where hillary clinton and donald trump have both spent a lot of time and that is the all-important state. so if you dive in to this, here's just one more interesting thing to look at in terms of who is voting almost 2 million of them are regg strered democrats. 1.5 registered republicans. what do you think in these numbers? >> well i think there's a couple of things. first of all i think it's going to capture the enthusiastic support for both candidates. so i think you know you see the registration advantage to the democrats. yes, that helps hillary clinton, especially because it's capturing moments in the race that correspond to the real unraveling of donald trump. it goes back to the release of the access hollywood tape and then his poor performance in the debate. so if you look at where the race was at those moments it was really trending in her direction i think that's why it helps. that's why you see hillary clinton arguing so much to get the vote out in north carolina

to try to freeze the race where it is before it can move again if it's going to move and get voters to her side but i think it really captures enthusiastic supporters for both. we see a high percentage of enthusiasm on both sides for their people and you know the issue for donald trump is does he have an ability to finish strong. he's not going to spend more money to do that. he doesn't seem to have a disciplined message down the stretch. hillary clinton has a much more robust get out the vote effort. she's got better surrogates. she's got a lot of entertainers around the country. she has the ability, i think, to get out that vote very strongly. >> man, look, it's obvious that the rigged word and the conspiratorial nature is going to be a big part. that's why i was jumping on rudy. how do you see the current play to advantage in the battleground states. who's up, who's down? >> look i think i think it's all in hillary clinton's favor. i mean i think you know she is in a commanding position in these battleground states. >> hold on, david, just to interrupt you because on the screen we're saying there's a republican advantage in florida, there's a new poll out this morning that shows that donald

trump is now ahead of her in florida, and in terms of early voting, it shows the republican advantage in florida, ohio, and utah. >> i should hope that they have an advantage in utah the republican candidate. >> so how about florida and ohio? >> yeah i mean look i mean i think ohio's particularly strong for him in terms of his enthusiastic voters, working class whites. she's got an ability to really close strong especially among those groups that are most for her that obama coalition. >> d. gregory thank you very much. appreciate the bottom line. >> you bet. >> there was a murder suspect on the run to tell you about there's been this rampage in oklahoma some of it livestreamed. we have the latest on the manhunt.
