7:45 pm
teach they thought i would teach modern tax and that just becomes what i think about tax policy that teaches nobody anything. i want to give people useful information in a way they can understand to come to the decision. the point you are raising that we had a lot of people in this country who will not pay attention to facts there's been a lot of psychological research done if you want to read a little book it's called true enough and when you look at the cover you will think it is a boy scout and what the research shows is that you tell people something they believe is not true, saddam hussein had nothing to do with osama bin laden you show than george bush saying that of course he had nothing to do with 9/11 the response will
7:46 pm
be they were trying to appease the liberal media if you could find the same thing he talks about what he calle called a fas football game between princeton and harvard but there's lots of research where people double down on what they wish to be true and i think that is a failure of the education system. we have an education system that was designed to prepare people for jobs not critical thinking skills. you could have a better conversation in canada than the first class on a jetliner and that is the failure of the education system we need to make people more politically sophisticated and make them critical thinkers. my children grew up in very good schools and they know you don't
7:47 pm
trust anything on the internet. but i've had students and they've gone and lectured at high schools where students say what donald trump said. it was on the internet and they assume it is true. this problem isn't going to get solved in my lifetime or yours. >> you have told us many bad things about donald trump. are there any positive things about donald trump? [laughter] >> i'd say a couple things, he built trump tower which is quite an accomplishment. he successfully shut down investigations about himself and that is an accomplishment. [laughter] it may not be what most people think that from his perspective that is a very positive accomplishment. the fact is no. i have tried very hard and when you read the book i think that
7:48 pm
you will see why. he's a world-class narcissist. you don't exist and she has no empathy for other people and so everything he does is about money. cutting off the health care for this child and so when i was working on a book and sleeping and writing i called up some other people and said i've got to have some perspective to go through things he has done but nobody could come up with anything. the businesses failed because he doesn't know how to remedy this us. he's not a good negotiator. in the terms of his deals they will tell you that and i cannot point to anything beyond the signature accomplishment of building the trump towers. and if they are coming even if it did from his father having as his best friend ben meir of new
7:49 pm
7:50 pm
7:51 pm
okay with you i don't want to have it bringing in the middle of the presentation. and i also would like you to line up behind the microphone in the center and then called upon, you can ask your question. thank you. for over 20 years, dick morris served as the political adviser and trusted confidant. he knows his strengths and weaknesses and their darkest secrets and they have many. mr. morris is admired for his insightful hard-hitting
7:52 pm
commentary on fox news and other international media outlets. "time" magazine has dubbed him the most influential private citizen in america. very impressive. a well-known political strategist he was the architect of the landslide in 1998. it says 98 here, sorry. and if they handled the winning campaigns of u.s. senators and governors internationally piloting the campaign of presidents and prime ministers of five continents. together with his wife he has
7:53 pm
written 15 books including ten "new york times" bestsellers. quite impressive again. tonight it is my great pleasure to introduce a very impressive and highly respected man. [applause] >> this must be my fourth or fifth or sixth speech to you all to divide the calendar i show up each year. i'm the most popular migrant worker in america. [laughter] this is about something very simple and easy to understand politically.
7:54 pm
both candidates have very high negatives. voters are dissatisfied with this choice, but they have totally different concerns over each candidate. donald trump is how he's acted and his temperament and language and fighting with people, his combativeness. with hillary clinton they are upset about what she's done, the secret e-mails, all of her scandals going back and so on. well, the simple fact is that it is a lot easier to change how you act van to erase what you've done and there is no better way to change how you act van on a nationwide tv debate watched by 50 to 60 million people and therefore the bar isn't that
7:55 pm
high. he has to be not deplorable, not racist, not unpredictable, not irrational, not dangerous, not psychopathic, not sociopathic, not homophobic. there are 100 million americans who can pass the test. i would like to think the majority of the country code and as long as he does not enact all of the accusations come at those accusations are going to fall flat and the hundreds of millions spent convincing people that to donald trump is it will be evidence that he's not because we will see him for an hour in these situations and if he is any of those things but i don't think he is.
7:56 pm
i know him very well. my father was his lawyer. my father's firm was dom v. and he was his lawyer from the time i was a teenager i could recall having them over for dinner. he is none of those. but hwhat he is is a doer who gs things done as a manager and entrepreneur who finds a way to win and get his way. that's not a bad thing. that's a good thing. there's a cute story about him that illustrates a lot of this. there is a woman whose name i used who owns the most beautiful estate in virginia absolutely
7:57 pm
beyond belief. it was an incredible estate and she lost it in bankruptcy and called trump and said well you buy my house where does the bank wants for its? 20 million. i'm not going to pay that. if you can think of a way i would love it. so he then said i will tell you what i will do. i will buy all the land around your house for x. million dollars. i'm not granting an easement for access so she sold it and they came to the bank and said that now what are you going to charge me for this? you can have the house as long as you like as long as you don't
7:58 pm
step on my land so they gave it to hi him at a good price and tt will now be the latest resort rates near jefferson's home. they will find a way to make it work. he's unpredictable in the sense that when you work with him usually stuff turns out quite and if there's anything he doess not come it back. all he has to do is not be in that long list of things. and her campaign has a juvenile quality to this like sticks and stones will hurt my bones but words will never hurt me. it's like a kid calling somebody else names and then they come up with a new name.
7:59 pm
it's sort of a speechwriter they welcomed thesaurus coming up with things to call donald trump then when you see that he is not those things, the whole rationale goes away because it's not that he's for this one against that it's how could you possibly even think of voting for this guy, he's beyond the pale how could you think of doing that, you should be ashamed of your self. when you think that is not true, he goes away and she has no line of defense. it's a brutal frontline defense of donald trump and once you get past that she has nothing else to run on. the point is hillary couldn't recover from what she's done as
8:00 pm
easily as trump. in an hour he cannot say the things he's accused of saying and come across as he is. he would make a heck of a good president but hillary came out in the space of an hour or a year or ten years and that's the key to why i believe trump can and will defeat because it is easy to undo what you've said if you've offended someone then in your past record. let me discuss this not from the perspective of a political commentator but the perspective of the person who was once their chief advisor for 20 years. ..
8:01 pm
>> when i think back on the clintons and the time i work for them it feels like a first marriage. [laughter] i said what was i thinking. but seriously, back then she was secretive, she kept her privacy, she got annoyed when someone pried into her affairs, she was not above making a fast walk and exploiting an opportunity that came her way. but now corruption and money make and is the be-all and end end all of this couple's life.
8:02 pm
they have gone from a romance in the 1970s and 80s to a partnership in the 90s, to a racketeering organization today. where bill's job is to pass the bake and hillary's job is to offer access and favors to those who put money inside of it. and whether the bag is called the personal checking account in which they have gotten $238 million of speaking fees and book sales come about 200 million of that is speaking fees. now, come on. you would never note know this but i do charge for speaking. but you you know, i charge ten, 15, if i'm really lucky 25. i know some people who are very famous and very good speakers and they can charge up to 100 and may be a former president could charge 125,000. when we are thousand. when we are talking about 1 million, were talking about a bribe.
8:03 pm
or, whether it is the hundreds of millions collected by the clinton foundation which has a thin veneer of charitable acts on top to disguise the massive skulduggery underneath it. on top of that, the billions of dollars in the clinton global initiative. when he put those together you're talking about one of the fastest money making corrupt institutions honor. it is total business probably exceeds that of any good-sized drug cartel or the month. it's incredible what they have been able to do. all all based on one simple concept. pay money to get access. people sometimes say what was the quid pro quo, well, when you have a meeting with the secretary of state you do not need a quid pro quo. in fact there is a cute story, john kennedy was running for president and a guy came over and said jack, i want you
8:04 pm
to when i will give you a million dollars and he said that's great what can i do and he said nothing, just get the nomination and then we will talk. and after he got the nomination the guy said i'm giving you another million and he said that's fantastic what can i do from you he said nevermind, just when the election and then after he won the election he send up another million and that he said don't worry we'll talk later. then after kennedy took office he said the good investors are gone but i'm sure we could work something out and he said what you can do is meet me for dinner at the most fashionable washington restaurant on march 4 at 7:00 p.m. and he said you can eat at the white house dining room said no i'd like it to be here and he said okay, fine so the guy got his entire family, all of his friends and clients, all the
8:05 pm
business associates and neighbors, the friends from school, all together in the restaurant and at 7:00 p.m. kennedy walked in and walked over and said not now jack, i am busy. [laughter] access is really all you need. when you go into the third world country and he said last week when i was having lunch with the secretary of state she said, at that point you want to own the cable franchise for the company want to take over the cable television system. you want to take over the banking system, transportation, whatever you want if you are that close to the secretary of state. the the meeting is the message. the meeting itself, is all you need. and just to juice it up there is a lot of concrete and real benefits that flowed from that, when vladimir putin wanted to
8:06 pm
buy 20% of the iranian supply in the united states with we are not salsa fission in uranium and he felt having controlled the oil supply which he is now losing, he tried to control the iranian supply in our plants have not self-sufficient in uranium norse or military. so that that had to be approved by the state department and the state department people said no, of course not you are crazy. putin went ahead and bought, for a huge price the company that he emerged into the russian atomic agency and was run and the man run and control 20% of the iranian supply and he was canadian so he was loved to do that. when it came out for review at the state department he gave the clinton global initiative
8:07 pm
$136 million for climate change. the changes the climate we have that kind of money. and to tackle it off putin invited bill to moscow and paid him 1,100,000 dollars for two speeches in four months after that hillary signed off on the deal. so, this kind of thing goes on all of the time with her. a lot of people say but every politician takes money. and every politician does favors, but there is a wall in american politics that separates political contributions from income. aplenty people have gone to jail for abusing that line. for using the campaign contributions to have dinner or
8:08 pm
buy a suit, pay for a vacation. there are at least a dozen members of congress who have gone to jail for doing that. it's tempting because they live on limited incomes and are handling 10,000,000 dollars in the campaign fun why can't i get any that, you can't it depends on the television commercials, the staff or headquarters, you the staffer headquarters, you can't spend it on yourself. so when the clintons got campaign contributions in the past that was for television, advertising and winning the election. when you get a speaking fee that's personal money. when it goes to your foundation or global initiative that you control, that's personal, you can use that anyway you want, you can will it to your heirs, it becomes part of your stay. that is really what hillary and bill have been selling. so when i knew them, they wanted money in order to get power, give me campaign contributions and i will use that to get elected. and and they did it every way they could, they
8:09 pm
played fast and loose, they sold the white house, they sold tours, places on air force one, they sold everything that walked and got campaign money in return for it. i was one of the reasons they did that because i made them change fundamentally how much money they were going to spend, way up to told them they had to go out and raise money and when they would complain, bits, and mode but they would do it. but none of that was personal money. all of that was political money. and for and for the most part the stuff people got from it was just trinkets. it was unseemly, but there is nothing potentially bad about it. but here we are talking about personal income. so before they sought money to get power, now they seek power to make money. i want to be president so i can get higher, so i can can add extra zeros to my husband speaking fees. because that has become the
8:10 pm
nature of the transaction that bill and hillary clinton have forced upon the world. and that is not new, that did not happen back when i was working for them. they were not materialistic back then. bill would be happy eating mcdonald's as anything. once we're in the white house and we would meet every week and i would have my team there and the president would be there and we would order pizza, we were eating the pizza in bill's dying, his tongue is hanging out and dripping he said you know i haven't had dinner and i can't eat the pizza because i can't eat anything that was not cooked in the white house kitchen. so after that he banded. nobody can eat in my presence. but that was bill clinton his cuisine background. but my, my, how they have changed, how they have evolved, and from that has stemmed a degree of secrecy, degree of paranoia, that is truly incredible.
8:11 pm
we had a major reform in america that really protected our democracy. in the mid-19 70s when j edgar hoover was forced out of the fbi and the church committee reined in the cia and this sort of shadow government. they made the point that these operations are not aboveboard and there are not of what the government should normally be doing. and hoover ran the government by blackmail. he had a file on everybody. everybody knew he had a file on everybody and he got johnson to keep him on the job because he shared all of the files with him. whenever johnson, we talked we talked about how great he was forgetting civil rights past but the techniques were very different. he would just get a hold of hoover and find out this guy was gay, whether, whether this guy had beaten his wife or
8:12 pm
this guy had a criminal conviction in the past. he would just float the information to him and say would be a shame for this to come out, don't you want to pass the silver rights bill and it was put to good use but it was very bad. i believe is hillary is elected president this will write again. i believe that the woman who kept a file on all of the republican opponents, who hired private detectives to investigate the women her husband was accused of being involved in, not for divorce or get it to stop but to threaten them with stuff in the pack ground to shut them up so he could get elected president, i do not think that women should control the fbi, the cia a.m. that an essay, the irs, the epa and everything else. [applause] i think we're asking back into the government blackmail. by the way, had a had a real insight over the last ten
8:13 pm
or 15 years running political campaigns and former communist countries. i had the good fortune to help elect the president of poland, the prime minister of hungary, the prime the prime minister of romania, and the president of ukraine, the guy who was poisoned by the kgb. the way the communists, the former communist control people was not that they would send out troopers or drake them and stretch them, they would get blackmail material on them. and when i was once with a communist leader and he was talking about supporting a young kid who is running and he turned to his staff and say get something on him because i can't control unless you get something on him. and that was was hillary's philosophy in dealing with these women on the so-called bimbo control. that was really when i began to break with hillary because i saw how outrageous that was and essentially how dangerous that was.
8:14 pm
>> and her sense of paranoia and secrecy, her obsessive desire to conceal stuff use to just be a fetish. it use to just be something that was an odd quirk in her character. now it is deliberate. she cannot run this bribery with everything being published because of all of the quids in the protocol's are spelled out in e-mails you cannot let those become public. so she would rather adopt a private system and lie about it then which it risks foreigners accessing our top secrets then to permit the american media or the public through freedom of information to access it. precisely because she cannot afford to let them do that because of the material that's in it. because of the obsessive quid
8:15 pm
pro quo that goes on. hillary ties yourselves in knots. what i'm saying is that when i worked i worked for the clintons i began to understand that every problem we had, every scandal we had related back to hillary clinton, even sex scandals did. for example, when he first took office as governor there is a big reform in the nations poultry, chicken farming laws because chicken dong was getting into the water supply imposing a real public health matter. so states and states impose new regulations in arkansas and imposed regulations. the biggest political company in the country was tyson foods. in tyson foods with all the chicken had a guy who worked for them who happened to be an expert in the market. he he happened to know his way around it very way on trip very in his name was jim blair, his wife was
8:16 pm
one of hillary's friends and jim went to hillary when they took office and basically said i would like to help you with your investments. they said that's wonderful we don't have much to invest. and he said well if you have it thousand dollars, and then he invested it in the futures market for her. what he did was he took ten or 12 other people invested their money and and then they may trades on then you could allocate the wins and the lawsuits to the ten or 12 people you wanted. so he allocated all of the wins to hillary until she got 100,000 dollars and that she dropped out, she quit., she quit. the bribe had been reached. in a in return he waived the environmental enforcement in arkansas for ten years and they were permitted a level of pollution that only ended with federal action. oddly enough after they became president. but that was the original sin. now nobody knew that because
8:17 pm
those traits are not publicly disclosed. so 1981 our opponent it in the governor's race released his tax return and i said you have to return your tax return two and bill said yes, this sure and hillary said no and then bill said maybe we can release 7879 and 81 but we can't released 80 and i said come and i said come on out if you do that everybody would go crazy what happened? it should say, say, we can't release any of them. i never probed why. ten years later the washington post was investigating the gam while bill was president and editorial saying we demand to know if they made a profit out of their white water and the only way can we can talk tell that is to get hillary's tax return from 1980 and 81 to see if they made money off of the whitewater deal.
8:18 pm
if we see their tax returns that will satisfy us. and hillary said no were not releasing it and i said forgot sake you're out of your mind they're gonna kill you with it. they will appoint a special process prosecutor. he will be after you like a guard dog and here just release it, you pay your taxes, even if you didn't pay taxes your income wasn't large enough any of four years to live it down. go do do it. i fought and fought she went to a. she got mad at me. then, a year later she released the tax return because the tenure statue of limitations on insider trading had lapsed. had she released it earlier she would've been prosecuted and likely convicted. so she was not going relates
8:19 pm
this until after the statue of limitations lapsed and i said oh my god, that's what it was about. so now we get a special prosecutor whose all over the place investigating them and doing all kinds of stuff. she almost gets indicted for fraudulent real estate work she did. as a result of the special prosecutor there is a huge investigation and it turns up paula jones who said that bill asked her to come from the hotel lobby to his room to have sex and she sued clinton for millions of dollars in damages and all of that. and then in the middle of the lawsuit in the early years she said, i will settle the lawsuit, i will drop the lawsuit, no money, no apology, no, no apology, no admission of guilt, all i want is bill to admit that he sent something to fetch me up to the room. and i said hillary that's great, not should he's the government held that a problem and she said
8:21 pm
>> for hundred 25. made. made speech after speech after speech. #in the legislation. now you cannot have an email trail that tells you about this. you cannot lay the stuff out of public. so if you can use emails which you have to because some of these complicated transactions have to keep it secret.
8:22 pm
that is how the secret he will server got formed. and they carried it over from the senate to the secretary of state's office and that she had to lie about it and maybe defeat it for election because of it. all of this goes back to the original sin of 1980. and that is and that is hillary's mind. you want to go inside her brain brain, that's how she thinks. everything is tied in with everything else in this gigantic effort to conceal everything so that nobody can ever know what is going on. and if she goes to washington, she's in the white house, she will do the same thing there. she cannot help herself. and the bribery scheme will become enormous. it will become enormous. it will completely take over the american government. apart from the fact that hillary clinton is the one who is running let's talk a little bit about what this election means in terms of issues. i've said that i believe that if trump loses the selection it will be the last election.
8:23 pm
that by that i don't mean will become a dictatorship, but i do mean that we will never win another election for 20 or 30 years because she is going to let 12,000,000 illegal immigrants in the united states vote, that is a% of our electorate right there. i encourage more to calm she will appoint supreme court judges who will ratify that and we will never win another election. because we'll never win another election, america will pass its permanent tipping point about which reagan warned us, when the money we spend in welfare and entitlements exceeds the money we collect in taxes, the tax leaders outvote the taxpayers and there's no reason not to raise taxes as in greece, detroit, stockton, so many other cities and countries we have seen and this statistics are
8:24 pm
daunting, when obama took office we had 76,000,000,000 dollars in welfare, not counting medicare or social security, just medicaid, food stamps, and that stuff. 76, food stamps, and that stuff. seventy-six, now it's up to 107. when obama took office, 137,000,000 americans worked full-time, million americans work full-time, now it's down to 114. if you get hillary there for four years or any democrat, they're going to cross. we will inevitably be in that downward spiral that leads to where greases and where detroit is. but there is no america to bail us out so i don't know how you get out of that, i don't know know if the world recovers from that. i think also we are at a juncture when we come to the issue of crime and terrorism. who can look at what is going on in france and belgium without feeling for them, that that they have this huge indigenous muslim population that are generally
8:25 pm
law-abiding people that are seated with terrorists, and in neighborhoods that the police will not go to, they're called no go zones and sharia law applies to most of those even enforced by french courts. the black male, the coercion, the power to force muslim law and the ability to have terrorists who rise up and destroy thousands of people in these countries is unabated. and obama wants to let 110,000 new immigrants from muslim terrorist sponsor countries into the u.s. next year. so for hillary's four-year term for hillary's four-year term might be 500,800,000, 1 million. there's a survey i write about in my book in armageddon, which feuded the company in the
8:26 pm
philadelphia. they asked american muslims, there ever a reason why you might support violence against the opponents of islam, jihad? haiti five jihad? haiti 5% said never, but 15% said yeah there might be circumstances, rarely, i don't think so there could be. welcome on area and if you're looking for 10% of 3 million people that's an incredibly large population to vet. it makes a transparent sense to make keep them out of the country. the only reason democrats want them in the country as they vote democrat 85 to make 90 percent. just like they want illegal immigration to continue they want refugees to continue. but but an illegal immigrant has to wait to be legalized the naturalized, and then registered to vote. a refugee can be registered like that because they come in essentially as legal immigrants. all they have to do is say i want to be naturalized and pass the test, register to vote and they are there. this is a shortcut to taking
8:27 pm
over politics. to know this guy ralph elsberry or something like that who is the radical islam congressman from minnesota. he's a democrat, his muslim and the only muslim member of congress. his way over in support of the palestinian. he is elected because that's an area where the muslim immigrants had settled. if trump loses we will lose the ability to stop that. the other thing is obama care is a basket case. it's totally been destroyed. by the way, and credit marco rubio with that. because while everybody because while everybody else was giving speeches against obama care, rubio recognized the weakness and obama care. that the insurance companies would have to ensure high risk people in charge them high premiums because the government required them to offer extensive coverage of everything and therefore it had to be high-cost
8:28 pm
the more people who refuse to buy it the more the risk pool got back, the more the cost rose. obama seen then but a provision in the bill saying that the insurance companies would be bailed out by the federal government and they would not be permitted to lose money. rubio defunded that in the last budget bill. now all of the insurance companies are jumping ship, at not has left, united healthcare has left, refusing to do business under obama care. when they leave that's a crucial they leave that's a crucial link that makes obama care possible. that's the people who administer the policy. that would leave us to go back
8:29 pm
to the old system with modifications to make it better, or have total government controlled medicine in the united states with rationing and all that stuff. with the obvious solution is to eliminate the element of coercion, let anyone by anyone policy they want for any amount they want covering whatever they want or not by anything they want and that will permit premiums to go down because i don't need truck addiction therapy or sex change operations, don't need psychotherapy treatment and it comes way down in price and then have attack subsidy and let children stay onheir chdren's policieak conditio andtop em fm drpi -tolinatehe elent says you t nsicy t tells yoto ary a omaho em ithe nninan t socialize ompromis

llpt t active bat i k there ucssful. thera st of fundamentay ty wrright now in clay ft malleable clay. will iran not go nuclear? will obama care work will global warming be enough of a threat and effective enough encountering it. we don't know the answer to that. but we will and four, five, six years. what hillary will do is make that clay hardin so we can't change and she's the rat a fired she's the one who will make it happen. while we do need to do is before the clay gets hard and we need to change the policies and make them consistent with the country
8:31 pm
before opportunity and all the stuff that obama would really ride over. those really are the stakes in the election. so i'll be happy to answer questions. eileen eileen my co-author and wife cannot be here because she has a knee problem but she sends her love and regards. [applause] first, i want to say that is my friend's home in virginia, that is pretty sure, i've been there.
8:32 pm
>> that make sense to me. i had seen a documentary about the early days of the clintons while at the time clinton was trying to raise money for governor. i heard that he was dealing in cocaine and it was put on planes and is there any truth to that? >> planes flying out of mesa, arkansas with a contract contract with the cia. i never knew about that. i don't like to speculate about that because when i don't know something i don't know it. i have no idea about that. >> i have one other question. i know trump is doing much better in the polls and i'm very excited about that.
8:33 pm
but. >> she's excited about trump doing well in the polls. >> yes, i'm very excited about trump doing better. >> to hear that? trump doing well. >> yes, i am on the trump train. but train. but i am very concerned about loading because i have been told that the voting booths, many of them have been bought by -- of couple of years back and that these already can have been contaminated in a way that can rig the election. i wanted to know what you think about that? >> i've not heard that, we will see. the the potential for fraud in american elections is significant. the key to preventing it is photo id. in north carolina they did a study of everybody who voted in north carolina in the 2012 election. then they search the voting records of 26 other states, republican states that let them
8:34 pm
do that. they found that 75,000 people who had the same first name, the same middle name, the same last name in name, the same last name and the same date of birth as 75,000 people who voted in north carolina, also voted, also voted in another state. so, dick nor is born november 20, 1947 voted in north carolina and florida. they found 75,000 of those. the only reason they've looked in north carolina was because it was the place that let them do that. so it is so easy was such so easy with such a large number of illegal immigrants lying around to dick someone up who says he is me and goes in and there's no photo id. it is inexplicable to me why we could ban photo ids. they're necessary. it's a ridiculous contention that we don't have to. >> thank you. >> thank you so much for an amazing talk.
8:35 pm
really you sensitized all of us to the danger we are facing with hillary clinton. here's my question. it seems to me in recent weeks hillary seems to be imploding. her poll numbers are going down, her health is very precarious. the. the moral turpitude that she has, the scandals, the clinton foundation mess seems more people is heightened. so that being the case, what is your opinion on the following? do think think the election currently is between trump and obama, and other other once a referendum on obama more than between trump and hillary? >> no, it's overwhelmingly hillary because she has such a strong personality. strong personality. she is no stand-in. she is no cipher. but the erosion and hillary support and her personal viability that you describe certainly is accurate.
8:36 pm
i'm it's going to get worse. i personally believe, have no proof, that the kremlin has all of her deleted e-mails. and that those will be released in october. i think that is why obama and hillary have gone to great lengths to warn putin to stay out of the u.s. election and to try to make putin and trump an item. so if he does intervene that they can say he is trying to elect to trump and he is a horrible dictator. i think i understand why putin is doing that. in 1996, bill clinton approached me and said we have to get yeltsin reelected in russia because a guy named dashmac's running was a kgb guy, putin is supporting. we then. we then worked very hard to elect boris yeltsin in training in the campaign, getting hundreds of millions of dollars of money from the saudis actually to pay back wages in
8:37 pm
russia and all kinds of stuff that was documented in a movie in russian called spinning boris. i know because it was about me. and i think that putin wants payback. i think putin resents that and he is trying to intervene in the u.s. election. in terms of hillary's health health have no idea. i do believe it is crucial that we make her take an mri release those results to be broken people. because the consequences of parkinson's disease which many people feel she had our dementia, often dementia, often and crippling for a president. psychologically crippling. and i think it is very important that we know that. and i think that we are going to have to watch this carefully and comment on it and look at the
8:38 pm
episodes and indicate that that is required and necessary. in terms of hillary's downward spiral, i think we have to realize there is more than enough reason for the majority to a vote against hillary clinton. what is stopping from doing it is their dislike of donald trump. and the more trump comes across as a reasonable option, which he is, with reasonable policy, which he has, i believe people are going to come over and vote for trunk. there is no good reason not to vote for trump. except to no kind of fear pandering that all my gosh you don't want him to have his finger in the nuclear trigger. he has been opposed to war much more than hillary. hillary would be much more like she had to would be much more like she had to prove herself by going to war. i feel there is no rational reason on that yes, she will make the senate and the supreme
8:39 pm
court pro-life, yes, but so it any republican. i think the concept that he is beyond the pale has no basis in fact. i think if trump can debunked that by his performance i don't think she has a second act. has a second act. >> thank you so much. >> thank you so much for being here firstly, there two questions. one, if if we are able to see if the clinton foundation tax return, do you feel that would reveal quite a bit of their misdeeds? secondly, what you feel are the three top let's say evils or misdeeds that you feel trump should really hit her with during the debate. >> the first question is getting the tax returns from the clinton foundation and with that expose a lot of what they have done? sure it would. but we know a lot anyway because foundations are required to make a fairly explicit disclosure of their spending and of their
8:40 pm
fundraising. we know that the clinton foundation gave out only 7% of its money in grants which is the lowest of any foundation in the world far. they have an answer to that, they say that is not our style. our style is not to get people money but to send in our people to do good things for them. a little bit more of the peace corps model than the foundation model. and how convenient for them that they say that. but still you're talking about such a disparity between the amount they have raised and the amount they have spent on anything that could vaguely be called charitable. it is hard to believe. when you look at their line item to have about $110 million per year travel expenses. now, that may include paying sarah jones to fly to gambia to help inoculate people against the bullet. but it also may include flying
8:41 pm
bill clinton to give a speech or a staff to different places to set up field organizations and a mixture of that stuff makes it almost impossible to track it down. your other question is a challenger. the first thing i would do is that i would ask her to take a position opposing obama's statement this week that he wants to admit 110,000 additional refugees from muslim, terror sponsoring countries. i think trump needs to make clear that he does not want a religious cast. he originally proposed that but in thinking about it he believes now that it is more consistent with our constitution to have a test based on geographic residence. that if you come from an area that is now controlled by terrorist you cannot commit to
8:42 pm
the united states, which means basically iraq and syria and parts of afghanistan and pakistan. parts of sudan and parts of yemen. they're completely rational approach. i think he needs to challenge her on that and talked about the impact of letting those folks in. secondly, i hope that he goes after bill for deregulating the banks in 1999 in 2000. and then accepting tens of millions in fees from them. in the book i speak about the need for a right to chap, on conservative issues that republicans always use. but also the left hook to come around and get the birdie sanders voters. by drawing tightly the connections between hillary and the banking industry i think you can appeal in a very important way. the final thing is that he should challenge her to say that
8:43 pm
the clinton foundation will close its doors, that it will not exist as an agency that accepts contributions from people who want access to the president. she will refuse to do that because what is the point in getting elected if you cannot steal. i think that will be a major issue. >> thank you so much. [applause] >> dick it, i have a question about our president, here we have the first black it, a lot of really his mother was right and the opportunity that he had to do i thought to myself was overwhelming to go to chicago, he never went to chicago, never told these children to stop shooting each other, never did anything to uplift the child, i'm a former new york city school teacher.
8:44 pm
and i thought this man be in our president would do something for his people. and he did nothing. >> compared to it build it. >> nothing, nothing, nothing! what an opportunity and what a legacy he could have had if he went to chicago where he came from and went to the high schools and went to all of them and told them, look what i became. you can become what i became. and that is the travesty of this president. the travesty of this president. >> you're right. remember when bill clinton went to a black church in memphis on the day of martin luther king's birthday? he said martin luther king did
8:45 pm
not live in martin luther king did not die, so 13-year-old black boy could kill an eight-year-old black boy could kill an 8-year-old black boy which had just happened that we can memphis. i think that is such a tragic waste seven opportunity. >> absolutely. >> instead, he made a smart race conscious than we have ever been. >> he did not care about them. >> while he was a political force, he wanted to use it to change the country. thank you. you are right. >> because because here what an opportunity that this man had to raise up these youngsters and to tell them and now we have to show the most outrageous thing in the world and is still going on tonight, they're still killing each other, people not going to work. >> i want to say that i think that
