ty." it ensures the closest ambulance remains on-call during paid breaks "so that they can respond immediately when needed." vote yes on 11. hello, i'm wolf blitzer and it's 1:00 here in washington. days and counting until the mid-term elections and the candidates are bringing out the big guns. the vice president, mike pence, and oprah winfrey have been holding dueling campaign events. oprah is campaigning on behalf of stacey abrams and the vice president is stumping for brian kemp. polls suggest the candidates are deadlocked in a very tight race. kaylee hartung is joining us at the abrams event.
10:01 am
caylkal kayly, how much of a factor is this in oprah's decision. we heard her speaking on her beha behalf. >> when are oprah took the stage, she told georgia voters, you are on the precipice of an historic election. that's the word people used to describe the situation that georgia voters find themselves in. two candidates on polar opposite ends of the spectrum, trying to appeal to their respective bases. oprah said he was a registered independent voter, an independent woman who earned the right to be what she wants, when she wants. she said nobody paid her to come here. she took it upon herself. the message she was sharing and the way she was responding. there is so much she encountered on the trail. oprah was impressed by this
10:02 am
woman and wanted to come here to ensure georgia voters understood. it's so rare oprah makes an appearance on the campaign trail. we saw her in 2008 endorse barack obama and she supported hillary, but never went on the trail. listen to her talk to the crowd. >> i am an independent woman and i earned the right to do exactly what i want to do. i earned the right to do what i want to do when i want to do. i earned the right to think for myself. and to vote for myself.
10:03 am
that's why i am a registered independent. i don't want any party and i don't want any partisan influence telling me what decisions i get to make for myself. >> so there you have oprah campaigning for stacey abrams. the gubernatorial candidate in georgia. mike pence said he is not intimidated by oprah's star power. here's whatta he told a crowd of kemp supporters moments ago. >> i'd like to remind stacy and oprah and will ferrell, i'm kind of a big deal, too. and i got a message. i got a message for all of stacy arbram s's liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia.
10:04 am
>> meantime, critics are calling it perhaps the most racist campaign video in decades. they are accusing president trump of fear mongering only days before the mid-term election. the president posted the video on his twitter page that goes out to about 55 million followers and shows a mexican man convicted of killing two california deputies while in the country illegally. he threatens to kill more police and the video accuses democrats of plotting to allow him into the united states. let's bring in our legal analyst and cnn analyst and our chief correspondent, dana bash. tell us more about this video. it's not a campaign ad. they are not paying it, but it's getting a lot of exposure. >> not a campaign ad and not a video done by the campaign in
10:05 am
particular. no money behind it, which tells you everything you need to know about the understanding that the president has of the power of his twitter feed. it is a message that is unmistakable and a message that is not even racist under tones. there are racist overtones. that's the way it is. it's the pinnacle of the strategy that has been transparent and that the president and several of the republicans on the ballot have been going after, which is to try to gin up the base by scaring people, some cases, unnecessarily so. we will see if the republicans denounce this. unless i missed it, i haven't heard any of them do that. which is very noteworthy. i called a couple and the
10:06 am
comment was no comment. >> on this awful video. what went through your mind when you watched? >> two words. willie horton from the 1988 democratic versus dukakis versus george h.w. bush. he was geared towards trying to have race baiting fear mongering talking about the weekend furlough program in massachusetts that dukakis was a fan of. the person was able to get out on the weekend and committed an assault and a rain of a white woman. that fired the kkk prop gappeda. this is not about black americans, but a black male and the race-based fear mongering used towards people who are undocumented in this country and the person featured in the particular advertisement. somebody who was convicted of having killed two california deputies and was the antethesis
10:07 am
of the president's law and order society and using this notion of who was coming here and who else democrats let in. i had to check my calendar to figure out what year i was in. it's clear as dana talks about, it's not the covert methods, but the avert uses of trying to show that the democrats are not law-abiding or law and order. that the president's party and the republicans are instead. you see this from time to time going on and on. it's disturbing to see. >> you look at the rest of the video and i don't want to play it and get free advertising to those out there, but if you look at the rest of it, you see hoards of invaders threatening to come in and tearing down walls and fences and threatening the american people. it's pretty awful. >> two things. trump himself is nationalizing this election around issues that he personally cares about. i don't think there was a lot of coordination with the senate and house campaigns on this.
10:08 am
this is trump's issue. he uses the issue in a way that a lot of people in his own party wouldn't use it. they don't often speak up if they disagree. the other thing that is sort of amazing is these two issues, crime and illegal immigration are not actually issues that are at peak problems. the crime rate has been going. in '88, crime was a serious problem and democrats were vulnerable as controversial as that ad was. violent crime has been on a decades long decline. there was a dip up in some cities. two, illegal immigration is not the massive problem the way it has been in certain years. trump's ability to manufacture an issue and create a sense that people are coming to harm you and that nonwhite people are coming to harm you and playing up this invading force that is
10:09 am
in central america, not even close to the u.s. border, his power to demagogue that issue is remarkable and it's not new. the first speech he gave, he called mexican immigrants and broadly described them as rapists. he is going back to where he started. >> this is one of the big challenges, i'm sure you'd agree. figuring out how to report and cover on donald trump. the reason is because he is the president of the united states. he does have millions and millions of followers on tw twitter, the medium he used to send this video out. how much oxygen do you give? he is so transparent in what he cares about and the fact that he wants to demagogue on it and whether he believes it or not, he wants it to be part of the conversation and this is him very transparently making this part of the conversation with a
10:10 am
distraction. what we are doing is talking about it, but putting it in context. even that takes away from the actual issues that a lot of people are talking about. >> he is the master of conflating two topics. we are not showing the full thing, but talks about an undocumented person who has been report and returned to commit a crime in the united states of america against an unidentified region where people are pushing against the wall on the heels of a birth right issue the president is making. it leaves the conclusion that undocumented persons and the migrant caravan are in the same when people are trying to get to a lawful port of entry. it's not unlawful to do. it's conflation. >> they announced the president will be giving a speech later this afternoon at the white house on immigration. sarah westwood is reporting and he is expected to announce a significant change in the asylum laws of the united states.
10:11 am
it would seek to require migrants to request asylum at legal points of entry and prevent them from claiming asylum if they are caught crossing illegally. they can request asylum once on u.s. soil. we checked with the immigration services and we asked the question, who is eligible to apply for asylum in the united states and the official answer is you may apply for asylum if you are at a point of entry or in the united states. you may apply regardless of your immigration status and within one year of your arrival in the united states. this would be a significant change. >> he is making things harder for the most vulnerable outside the country. unlike previous recent presidents, he does not see america or want america to be seen by the rest of the world as a place that is welcoming the most disadvantaged. i was talking to a democratic congressman this week about how we have to fk out how to respond
10:12 am
and cover this stuff. democrats have so many out rages. he was saying with trump raising these issues, what forces democrats to constantly talk about justice issues. the rights of the vulnerable. people seeking asylum. those are not people who are necessarily the voters, but the democrats are constantly forced to talk about this other set of issue that is a lot of voters want to speak to who are not really captivated by or interested in. it forces trump to change the conversation to switch topics. >> the president clearly thinks this is a huge winning issue. >> his raw political instincts have been right for years, since he got into this race and people thought it was a joke. his political instincts and the way he markets them and himself as part of it have been right. as we are on the precipice of
10:13 am
this election, it's kind of hard to wrap your mind around. it was only six years ago that the republican national committee following the 2012 election when mitt romney did so poorly with hispanic voters. years ago they came out with this autopsy and said we have to do a better job of talking to and talking about hispanic voters. that was only six years ago. seems like 600 years ago. >> trump figured out with republicans in the worst days of the red scare and communism and demagogue issue, the republicans in the worst days of the threat from al qaeda, trump seized on something new and using nonwhite immigrants as the issue to demagogue. >> thank you. with just five days left until the mid-terms, president trump ensures his party there is nothing to fear. >> i think the blue wave is dead, frankly. >> new poll numbers just in say otherwise. a closer look at the close

10:18 am
>> we are five days out from the mid-terms and the president is making a daring prediction that the so-called blue wave is dead. >> i think the blue wave is dead, frankly and i think we are doing very well. i think we will win the senate and i think we will do well in the house. >> let's see if he could be right. cnn released new polls out of florida and tennessee. if democrats hope to flip the house and the senate as well.
10:19 am
with us at the magic wall, walk us through the new polling just out. >> brand-new polls for cnn. two critical states. look at the razor thin races in florida. first up, the governor's race. this is a one-point race. 49% said they are backing andrew gillum and 48% backing ron desandis. they are rally iing republican support. more than where he was. gillum consolidated democratic support. the senate race is a similar story. take a look at bill nelson. the senator running for reelection. 49% of likely voters backing him. governor rick scott who is seeking to move to washington and represent florida in the senate. 47% of backing him.
10:20 am
this is a margin of error race. this is a coin flip. democrats like to see that they are numerically on top. without florida, their chances of not only getting to the senate majority are out of the question, but keeping the numbers to where they are would be tough without florida. in tennessee, wolf, this race also a margin of error race. with a slight edge towards marcia black burp, she is running against phil bredesen. he is probably the best recruit that they had to try to put a red state in play, but he is running a little bit behind. you saw the polls from arizona and nevada. those are the two best pick up opportunities for the democrats. they hoped tennessee would turn into the other one. florida will keep us all up late. >> thanks very much.
10:21 am
health care is a huge issue driving voters. where the gop stands on preexisting conditions is anything but clear. we will discuss that and more. plus, one fox news host suggests the press should report what the president wants and how he wants it reported. not happening. we will stand by and discuss. this is amazing. with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, are you okay? even when i was there, i never knew when my symptoms would keep us apart. so i talked to my doctor about humira. i learned humira can help get, and keep uc under control when other medications haven't worked well enough. and it helps people achieve control that lasts. so you can experience few or no symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure.

before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. be there for you, and them. ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, control is possible. do you have the coverage you need? annual enrollment ends december 7th. don't put it off 'til later. now's the time to get on a path that could be right for you... with unitedhealthcare medicare advantage plans. call today to learn about the kinds of coverage we offer, including aarp medicarecomplete plans insured through unitedhealthcare.

>> health care and immigration are two driving issues as we head into the mid-term elections. democrats focus on health care and president trump made refugee caravans his major push. last night he also tried to blunt democrats's health care push by stealing a key campaign rallying point. >> we will always protect americans with preexisting conditions. always. always. >> you have been saying that democrats want to take away preexisting conditions. it's your administration that is supporting a lawsuit that help insurance companies. >> i have always done that. the democrats are going to destroy our health care and you are not going to have any health care. >> the cnn commentator is the host of cnn cup unfiltered. saving a popular part of obamacare from the attempts to
10:27 am
kill it. that's now a rallying cry for the president and a lot of republicans. is that a message resonating with voters. >> well, interestingly, i have polling on that. just yesterday, october 31st in the new england journal of medicine said based on a harvard study asking voters what their prime concerns were. perhaps unsurprisingly, health care was not in their top five of concerns. also not surprising for democrats, it was the top concern. when republicans were asked what they care most about when it comes to health care, the majority, the overwhelming majority said the overall cost was most important. that's to republicans. now the next three aspects in their order for republicans protecting coverage for people with prekwifti inpreexisting co. that issue is number one for
10:28 am
those concerned about health care. it's interesting that the president is trying to walk suddenly in the 11th hour with just days before an election that, thus far, he has not been predicating on health care. >> very interesting. let's move on and talk about the president and the news media at his rally in florida last night. the president once again blasted the news media as the enemy of the american people. interesting, listen to this fox news anchor then defend the president. i will play you a clip from the president and her response. >> 33% of the people in this country believe the fake news is in fact, and i hate to say this, in fact, the enemy of the people. >> you watch other people report on what you say and it's completely different than what you mean. that has to be frustrating. if you don't want to be called the enemy, get the story right.
10:29 am
be accurate and report the stories the way i want it reported. >> what's your reaction to that? basically suggesting that those of us in the news media should report what the president wants us to report. >> i was gob smacked. i tweeted it out without commentary. just that quote. it is so disturbing. i know ainsley. she is a lovely person and a kind person and i think she means well, but the idea that it is our job to report things the way anyone in a position of power, but especially a president wants them is a total dissembling of the job of the media. we are here to be a check on power. we are not his press shop. we are not his spokesperson and his marketing team. we in the press are here to fact check and to be a check on power. it is not our job to be liked.
10:30 am
it is especially not our job to be liked by the president. >> it was stunning to hear that. that's what happens in totalitarian regimes and dictatorships. there is no free press and media to go after and criticize people in power. you have to just say whatever the leader wants you to say. this is the united states of america. there is a free press and that's the way it's got to be. >> it shouldn't need reminding that in countries like russia and countries like saudi arabia, we all know that recent example where in turkey in the saudi co consulate, reports are killed for not reporting the way their leader wants them to. they are killed. that should be appalling and not something we want to aim for. not something we want to puppet here. i reallyi wish my friends and colleagues at fox would take
10:31 am
more care in their words. they have the president's ears. that's clear. what they say matters and they are journalists or should be. as well meaning as i think ainsley is and brian and steve and everyone else at fox, i wish they would be more careful with the way they talk about our jobs. >> and the president made it clear in an interview, he will continue going after the news media, branding the news media as the enemy of the people. he said he is going to continue doing so despite the dangers of those words and all of the people including very, very close to him appealing to him. mr. president, don't do it. it's too dangerous. he's not changing his views. thanks very much for joining us. her show airs saturday night at 6:00 eastern. what can we learn from where he is stumping the final days. five days to go and nancy pelosi

nevada or arizona despite tight races there because republican campaigns have asked him to stay away. despite this mad dash in the home stretch, the president said he is confident the republicans will keep the senate and probably the house as well. >> the house is a lot of people. there are a lot of people. i think we will do well in the house also. i know we are doing well in the senate and it looks like okay in the house. we will have to see. >> phil mattingly is our correspondent and knows every vulnerable seat every step of the way. the president said things are looking good, but what does his campaign blitz tell us? >> his campaign blitz is focussed on the senate. that's a reason why they think things are looking good. we will narrow it down. he is going to have rally in montana, missouri, indiana, west virginia and florida. in 2012, this was a place where
10:38 am
democrats won or held seats. take a look at what happened in 2016 in the presidential. all turned red. the president winning many by double-digits. west virginia by 42 points. these are states where he is popular. all of these four states here, he has an approval rating above 50%. down in florida, not are inially the case. he is going to pensacola, a place where in 2016 he racked up votes to the point where the rnc was stunned. he knows he can help people turn out and why he is doing the traveling now. where he is not traveling is also important. that's the house. i want to pull up the house and focus on two states specifically. new jersey and pennsylvania. the reason why is two-fold. in these areas you are not going to see the president. these are places that at least early in the night could serve as the cornerstone for a potential democratic majority. look at new jersey. you see a lot of rheed in this
10:39 am
area. potential red republican districts that democrats can pick up. we are being told on a good night, democrats could pull up two seats here. down here a little bit up here as well. on a great night, they could pull up all four. look at the red and what the blue could be. only one republican could remain on a great night for republicans. moving over to pennsylvania, democrats have been happy about where this was going. the redistricting changed the maps and where do things stand right now? the gray is from areas republicans have retired. these are all pick up opportunities. they could pick up as many as four seats. tack it on to three or and that's eight towards the 23 magic number that democrats need to pick up. where could they be on a great night? the first district here in pennsylvania combined with four in new jersey could be nine total seats. that is a cornerstone in a great night to 23 seats and getting
10:40 am
that majority. they fall short of that and that could be a very big warning sign for democrats as they try to get to that magic number. >> democrats pick up 23 republican seats and not lose any that they are holding, they will be the majority in the house of representatives. good report. thanks very much. millions of people have voted in the upcoming mid-term elections, but for those of you who haven't voted yet, please do go ahead and vote either way. the stakes are enormously high as we get closer and closer to tuesday. one democratic leader who is brimming with confidence about the outcome. >> we will win. we will win. >> please don't say that. you want to say that on hillary's fireworks barge that she canceled? please don't say that. >> we will win. we own the ground andy woo are not yielding one grain of sand.
10:41 am
>> how long are the curtains? >> the former virginia candidate and governor, thanks for joining us. you agree with the democratic leader? >> i do. i think we win the house and will have a huge pick up in governorships. six to 10 governorships. we are winning in maine, michigan, illinois, new mexico, iowa and florida. 2021 redistricting. this is so important. people need to vote. we can't count on anything yet. i remind everybody that 92 million people did not vote in 2016 and woke up the next day and wondered how people get out and exercise their right to vote. last year in virginia out of 25,000 votes cast, dead even. the winner was picked out of a bowl. don't think for one second every vote doesn't count. >> how tough the candidates
10:42 am
should be going after the president and other republicans. the former attorney general, eric holder said democrats have to get tough and fight back. you heard what he said. do you agree with that notion? some say that plays into the president's hands. >> listen, i think we ought to be tough on the issues. why is trump doing what he's doing? the fear and division and attacking folks? he can't run on issues. they can't run on the tax cut or the health care. >> they can run on the state of the economy and jobs and unemployment and the stock market. >> they are not even talking about that. these are not the issues. he is back on fear and division and attacking people and the way he is attacking our candidates and the way he goes after folks like andrew gillum is disgraceful. he knows he is going to lose the house and they are not putting up with his stuff anymore. he has himself in a corner. we ought to continue on health care and education and those are
10:43 am
the issues people need to be tough on. >> florida for governor, gillum is the mayor of tallahassee. the president said the other day, he's a stone cold thief. i don't think he has been arrested or convicted of anything. he calls him a stone cold thief. >> it's disgraceful. why is the leader of the free world even involved in this conversation? you don't pay a pension to donald trump. he so marginalized himself. nobody pays attention to him. we will have a win because people have had it with his policies. accepted our military to the border? our border and customs are doing a great job. this is all politicized and our military thinks it's a disgrace. sending them down there before the mid-terms. by the time we get here, they are going three miles an hour. by the time the folks get here, it will be a small crowd. this is all about politicizing for the mid-terms it.
10:44 am
division, hate, fear. that is donald trump. >> who do you see as the strongest best advocates on a national level? >> i have always been big. >> which potential presidential candidates? who do you see as having the strongest and most positive voice? >> there is 10 or 15 phonifolks will probably run for president. you ought to disqualify yourself. you have to got to win this. who sits in the governorships will determine the redistricting in 2021. we have our clocks cleaned in 2011. why are so many of the districts tough for democrats? because they gerrymandered them in 2011. we get the governors and that will happen. we get fair maps. democrats will rule. we will get health care for everybody and take care of things that people want us to actually do. >> what do you think will happen in your common wealth of virginia? >> tim kaine is going to win.
10:45 am
i feel confident in that. he has been a great senator. we are running against cory stewart who can't even run a coordinated campaign. no one would put their name on the republican side. >> the incumbent democratic senator. >> great senator. we have four congressional races in play. right now today. we can pick up all four. >> these are republican districts that you think the democrats can win? >> in virginia and our nominee is up about 10 points consistently has been up. abigail is dead even and she is a former covert opportunity force. we have a navy commander running on the second. great opportunities and none of this matter fist people don't get out and vote.
10:46 am
they didn't inning their vote mattered. >> when are you going to announce if you are interested? >> everybody should get through november 6th and all the folks who are thinking about it will spend three or four months. by the first quarter, you will have everyone in who is going to run. >> you too? >> let's focus on november 6th and go from there. >> let's talk about it on november 7th. you going to knockout a booth tonight? >> i have to work. thanks very much for coming in. the governor from virginia. following the murder of the journalist, jamal khashoggi. israel and gulf states are stepping up relations. stand by. we have new information. stunning new details on how the notorious mobster whitey bulger was killed in prison, including a possible link to the mafia and efforts to cutoff his tongue.

in international news, relations featuring israel and some of the europe countries are clearly improving. israel has stepped up high-level contacts with some of the gulf arab states in recent days, weeks and months. benjamin netanyahu made an unannounced visit last week, the first in two decades. david sanger writes for "the new york times." for decades israel has had full diplomatic relationships with egypt and jordan but all of a sudden things are improving for the israelis with several other arab states. what's behind this? >> reporter: the main thing behind it is iran. the next few days you'll see the united states announce the next phase of the sanctions against iran meant to bring their oil revenues to zero. it won't succeed at that. but you're seeing the sort of

big pincher effect that prime minister netanyahu and president trump have worked out to try to squeeze the iranians after the u.s. left the nuclear deal. iran has been the one issue that has unified the sunnis with the arab states. there's also a deep intelligent sharing going on between the israel intelligence agency and the intelligence agencies of the sunni states. the one thing that binds them together is their opposition to the iranian regime. and now their unification with the united states on the rejeks -- rejection of the nuclear deal. >> and the united emirates allowed them to come in for a ju
