hello, everyone. it's 5:00 in philadelphia, and this is "the five." day three of the dnc is under way. president obama, v and vp nomin speak tonight on hillary clinton's behalf. last night her husband bill tried to make voters swoon by recounting their love story. >> i married my best friend. i was still in awe after more than four years of being around her at how smart and strong and

loving and caring she was. she's insash bli curious, a natural leader, a good organizer, and the best darn change maker i've ever met in my entire life. >> the former president traced their life together over the years, but he left one year in particular out. >> when i became president with a commitment to reform health care, hillary was a natural to head the health care task force. in 1997 congress passed the children's health insurance program. '97 she also teamed with the house minority leader. 1997 was the year chelsea finished high school and went to college. hillary's done a pretty fine job of being a mother. [ cheers and applause ] now, fast forward. in 1999 -- >> well, a lot of people noticed no mention whatsoever of what

happened in 1998, the year the president was impeached for lying about his extramarital affair with monica lewinsky. a lot to talk about. we had to wait and hold it all in until 5:00. greg, what do you think? >> it's obvious he skipped '98 because that year sucked. it was terrible. it was terrible for everybody. a nauseating tale of courtship does nothing to persuade me that a person is capable. i thought it was very charming, but he was trying to humanize an android. the chronological speech, we were talking about this earlier, is like watching a plane's progress on inflight tv when you're sitting and watching the plane go from new york to california. that was the speech. when he starts in 1972, you're going, oh, my god, this is going to go on forever. it was like a lifetime movie without the commercials for the vermont teddy bears. it was meant to put a romantic gauze over the lens that's focused on hillary, but it just made you feel like he was covering up something.

i don't know. not a fan. he did a good job. >> but you said he wasn't persuadable. we're going to have dana clean up that. >> want me to go last? >> i think you need to help now actually. >> so i have two minds of this speech. when i first started, i thought, is he reading from the wikipedia entry for hillary clinton? it was very chronological. i don't like books that read that way. then i did this, then i did this. there were three times in a row she did something and filed a report, which to me that's not the change you're looking for. however, i think the people in the hall loved him. i think that if you are a democrat and you are listening to bill clinton, you were persuaded. i know there are conservatives who think, that speech was horrible and why didn't he talk about he had an affair on her. of course he was never going to actually do that in the speech. i do believe that they are best friends. i think all marriages are

different and that the democrats have made peace with that and they believe he supports her fully and they are on board. they are okay with it. i think that it was certainly a good net plus for him and for her last night. and for chelsea. look at her face. she was so moved. to have your dad talk to you about that in front of millions of people must have been amazing. >> especially when he left out the affairs. >> the family knows about the affairs, and they have dealt with it. it's not a huge secret. >> 1998 was a pretty good year for me. i got married. >> what makes you think it ended in '98? there's a lot going on. i was listening to that speech going, you've got to be kidding. is anyone believing any of this? i had a different takeaway. >> you were tweeting this in rapid succession. >> call me crazy, but i don't believe a word of any of this. i ended with lying bill. i just didn't believe anything he was saying because of the affairs. he said the moment he met her,

she turned him down a few times, this is a love story. my best moment in my life was when chelsea was born. >> can't that be true? you don't think it's true that the best moment of his life was when his daughter was born? you don't think that's the best moment? >> maybe, but i don't hit think rest of it was true. i don't think he was pursuing her. we know what happened in the years in the white house. >> if you're a liberal democrat, you went into that speech thinking it was going to be great. if you're a conservative, you think it's going to be a whitewash. >> also, i wanted to hear something bigger than she's amazing and she's the best wife on the planet. i wanted to hear something -- >> he kept saying change maker. >> that irked me. when he said, you can drop her into any trouble zone and she'll make it better, all i'm thinking is benn ghazi and syria. really? i didn't like the speech at all. >> when i heard the word change maker, i thought of his little coin dispensers. >> change for a buck. >> yeah, that people put on their apron at the races. >> young people have no idea

what you're talking about. >> are the clintons trying to make a dollar out of 15 cents? all right, juan. were you charmed, persuaded, moved by it? do you think it hit all the right notes for people to say, you know, this is an interesting partnership, family, marriage, and yes k i like the way he spoke about her, she's someone i can trust? >> absolutely. look, bill clinton was terrific last night. i think it was the second great speech given here. michelle obama the night before. bill clinton last night. i'm so entertained by my colleagues this afternoon because apparently they all have flawless relationships, and not to mention the number of divorces on the other side by the other candidate. >> haters going to hate. >> i will say, this i really love the speech. i think it was particularly powerful because it felt intimate. it felt like someone was telling you a story about someone they know. >> did you feel touched by bill? >> i did. when i listen to you guys, i think this blows.

you know what i mean? let me just say it was extremely powerful to hear -- >> powerful -- >> no, because it was extremely powerful in hearing, here are concrete examples of how she helped people. you can say, i don't like her, she's evil, she's the devil, but you know what, here she was actually making change in terms of education, in terms of helping people who were involved with human trafficking. you guys want to demonize her. >> we're not that hard. >> it wasn't that powerful of a message last night. they had to tone him down. >> the expectation level is high because clinton is very good. well, speaking of husbands or ex-husbands, one of mine is speaking tonight. lieutenant governor gavin newsome. >> be specific. >> bill didn't only talk about their love affair last night.

he also touted his wife's record as america's top diplomat. >> as secretary of state, she worked hard to get strong sanctions against iran's nuclear program. she flew all night long from cambodia to the middle east to get a cease-fire. she backed president obama's decision to go after osama bin laden. she launched a team to fight back against terrorists online. he put climate change at the center of our foreign policy. >> okay. i know everyone is going to take issue with the climate change thing. but there was discussion before that hillary clinton is hawkish, right. there's been comparisons saying actually, she's been proactive in terms of the military. she got an endorsement from general allen, who's also speaking. >> when she became a senator, she was put on the armed services committee, and she worked very hard to make good relationships with many republicans and democrats on

that committee. i think that's one of the reasons that when she got to be secretary of state, she ends up with good relationships with the military, and she has maintained those beyond the senate into being secretary of state. >> he said newt, by the way. >> and john mccain. in her book, she actually writes she wanted to go after assad. she did not agree with president obama's decision on syria. actually, she was in concert with bob gates at the defense department, leon panetta at the cia, and chuck hagel. i think there's a case to be made she is more hawkish, but she tries to hide that. when we get into the more general election and there's a debate against donald trump, certainly that's going to have to be fleshed out. >> all right. last night on "hannity," newt was on the phone right away after the speech. he explained and i guess clarified, illuminated some of the comments, saying, wait, wait, wait, i'm not going to praise her as it relates to foreign policy.

>> i'm sorry, when bill first finished, there were a lot of pundits even on this network saying he did a great job. i wholeheartedly disagree. i'd agree more with newt. bill says you drop her into any hot spot, any trouble zone, and she'll make it better. i'll say it again, benghazi, she didn't make it better, she made it worse, especially for four families. the iran deal is still brewing. >> they haven't violated one aspect of the deal. >> they have violated -- >> listen, lee. you know what's different here? >> you're 100% wrong. >> tell me one thing. >> they tested ballistic missiles. >> that's not in the deal. >> of course it is. >> this is outside the deal. >> they have violated probably three or four aspects of the deal. >> this is your fantasy. this is just like you guys going on about, oh, why didn't he mention that year? you know the reality? her popularity soared because

she was seen as keeping a family together. >> bill clinton pats her on the back for the deal. they violated three things in the deal. testing ballistic missiles, enriching uranium -- >> they're not doing anything against the deal. but i know it's a republican talking point to say, what did hillary clinton ever accomplish as secretary of state? >> it will be a mark on her record. >> i think it's safe to say that since phillary was in power, th middle east have become the middle ages. we've seen some really ugly people come around, killing a lot of people. >> there was an arab spring, if i recall, right. before that, there were wars, right. so we had sunni/shia conflict, i believe. a lot going on here, and hillary clinton comes in and i believe was instrumental not only in

helping to end two wars but also in getting osama bin laden. >> but not win wars. >> but we also have to talk about what have you done for me lately. you see priests being beheaded and crucifixions and people burning in cages and being drowned. it's horrific. something's got to be done. coming up, hillary clinton celebrated her historic nomination with a dramatic appearance at the dnc last night. see that next. and later, what donald trump had to say about hillary today. >> she would be so wrong. i think it would be bad for women if it were hillary clinton. >> much more to come ahead on "the five."

>> hello, philadelphia. i am so happy. it's been a great day and night. what an incredible honor that you have given me, and i can't believe we just put the biggest crack in that glass ceiling yet. >> okay. i loved it. i loved that moment. i thought it was very powerful. i had a friend of mine, kimbe y kimberly, e-mail me, a guy. he said, do you feel proud at this moment, kind of making fun of the whole thing? i said, yeah, actually, i do. this is the first woman to be the nominee of a major political party, and i know a lot of people don't like her. i'm not going to vote for her, but i do think this is a pretty big deal for women. for our country, for everybody. >> i think it is great for women, great for our country. so many people would love to see a female president. we have such powerful women serving in so many important positions country in cabinet positions, in national security and foreign policy and universities across this country to the extent that it inspires and motivates and

puts joy in the hearts of young women and girls across the country that can see that they can achieve their dreams if they believe and they work hard and get after it. i love it. however, if i'd seen the face of condoleezza rice on there, i would have been delighted. am i going wrong here? it's a mutual friend. he said, well, i guess older white males have had a good run of it. >> i was looking at that and go, there was not a single little person in the entire presidency. you talk about glass ceiling, well, there's a glass floor. >> one of the presidents was like 5'2". >> that's not enough for me. how sexist is it -- >> aren't you 5'3"? >> i'm 5'9". how sexist is it that the only way to elect a woman is to keep her from talking? because that's what they were doing with hillary. they were hoping everybody remembers bill clinton, barack obama, joe biden, and not her.

they're saying, oh, yeah, we love this woman, but not this woman. i'm with you, kimberly. it's like, we're all for this, but not this woman. we disagree with everything and we don't -- also, isn't this a little bit rigged? like, hey, if we elect a woman, that'll be our way to get in. >> but they are hiding her. what, 235 days or something since she's done a press conference and answered questions. >> she doesn't even do a press conference. come on now. >> one of the arguments from republicans is that gender won't be enough. she is not doing very well with younger women and white women. >> i get the historical feeling, the emotion surrounding the nomination, but you know, we still have to have a president for the next four or eight years after that. hillary clinton's a flawed candidate. she's not, in my opinion, going to be a good president. i get it. you want that to happen, but the thing about other countries, think of angela merkel and other countries who have a female president or prime minister and if they're the best ones or the

most qualified, it works. if they're not, then you've done it and you've gotten past it and move on to the next. >> margaret thatcher? good. >> right, but i think three months after she's elected, if she is elected, we'll be like, okay, we did that, now look what we got. >> you know what, i think right now you have to just appreciate and acknowledge the historic significance of this moment. >> sure. >> majority of voters are women. in fact, i think it's 40% of the people who are the prime breadwinners in their household these days are women. majority of college students. it's unbelievable the change in the world, and this is the paramount of that, the presidency of the united states seen as the ultimate power in the world, right. so i just think it's such an amazing moment, and for you guys not to say, well, yes, like dana said, it makes you emotional. they ran that tape, by the way, at the wrong time. they ran it after bill clinton spoke. i think it would have had more power earlier, but they're so self-conscious about the idea of

saying to people like you, eric, that it's just about electing a woman that they delayed it and put it after the convention had gone out of primetime on the networks. >> they knew that eric is not their target audience last night. 55% of the electorate is made up of women, but she does have some struggles, to be sure. >> the republicans were far more diverse as far as primary candidates than the democrats. >> that's true. they hardly had anybody. >> if it were caitlyn jenner, i would be ecstatic. >> wait, i got to run. >> i don't care. i'm talking. if you have a relative who's about to go into heart surgery, are you going, oh, my goodness, i'm so glad the first female heart surgeon. >> this is the problem. you guys are misunderstanding the moment. >> i'm trying to. >> okay.

we're going to move on. donald trump appeared before the press today and reminded them how long it's been since hill y hillary's done the same. >> it's been 235 days since crooked hillary clinton has had a press conference. and you as reporters, who give her all of these glowing reports, should ask yourselves why. >> but first, greg, remind some democrats who seem to have forgotten that we still have a war on terror to fight. that's next. hey there, starting your search for the right used car?

terrorist attack against the priest yesterday, and they don't even mention it. it is bizarre. and that song -- i think the song is catchy. i will admit it's been in my head all day long, but i looked up the lyrics. one of the lines is, and i don't even care if no one believes me. if you have a 68% untrustworthy number, might not be the line you want in your fight song. >> eric, do they just think they're safe from terror so they don't have to worry about it? >> you know you're at the dnc when social media like twitter forces you to put an american flag on stage. you know you're at the dnc when people are being beheaded and there's no mention of isis. and you know you're at the dnc when law enforcement is evil but black lives matter is heroic. i mean, they have this whole thing upside down. you walk around philadelphia, boy, this is a completely different animal than cleveland was last week. and not in a good way, in my opinion. sorry. >> well, juan, except for law enforcement -- >> yeah, but as far as the way

they're being treated and being portrayed by the dnc. >> what do you think, juan? >> i just think you can't ask the democrats to play the scare tactic, armageddon, all the world is falling game. >> they do that with global warming. >> they need a positive, forward. looking message. that's why bill clinton is talking about her being a change maker. donald trump is over there trying to scare your pants off so you'll vote for him. he's trying to make it out the terrorists are coming through the door. >> he doesn't have to. this stuff is happening every day, juan. >> stuff happens around the world, but that's not to say that's the most important thing. what happened to them talking about jobs, the economy? i hear that coming from the democrats. by the way, hillary clinton was in north carolina yesterday saying, we need to do more to lead the international fight against terrorism. i heard madeline albright last night saying, hey, you know what, trump and pence, these guys are hurting our fight against terrorism because they're taking apart our muslim

allies who support us in pushing back against the terrorists. and she's right. >> is she right? >> why don't we just beat them down with air conditioners? i mean, it's unbelievable to me the lack of focus. they're not taking this seriously at all. i mean, europe is under siege from terror now, and they just didn't really want to even acknowledge about the poor priest and houses of worship. people are very worried. this isn't some place you would expect it in any way shape or form, being in normandy, so nice in france. this is very upsetting and disturbing. there should be some focus on it. if you think the american people are going to have confidence to have someone that has progressive ideas about social issues and climate change is the biggest fear -- threat facing this country, tone deaf, out of touch, not going to work. and that's why trump is leading now in the polls and got a bump and she's not getting any bump yet during this convention. they should be very concerned. it's not good. >> the killer of that french

priest had been arrested and released as a terrorist. >> and he was on home detention with an ankle bracelet with mommy and daddy dreaming about terror every night. give me a break. >> up next, donald trump calls on russia to hack hillary. >> russia, if you're listening, i hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. >> the rest when "the five" returns. this is the summer. the summer of this. the summer that summers from here on will be compared to.

welcome back. it may be hillary's week, but some big news for donald trump today. for the first time, the real clear politics average of polls shows trump leading clinton by

one percentage point. today trump held a news conference and started off by reminding the media that his opponent is still dodging the media, them. >> it's been 235 days since crooked hillary clinton has had a press conference, and you as reporters, who give her all of these glowing reports, should ask yourselves why z. and i'll tell you why. because, despite the nice platitudes, she's been a mess. you ought to check it out. because there's a lot going on. honestly, the reason is because there's no way she can answer questions because the job she has done is so bad. when they talk about change, i notice they have change. she's been there for 30 years. 30 years. there's no change. it's going to be the same. it's going to be an extension of

obama, in my opinion, worse. >> trump also shared his thoughts on the history hillary made last night. >> i would love to see a woman become president of the united states, but she would be so wrong. and even women say that. women don't like her. even the story told by her husband last night. he left out the most interesting chapter. i won't get into that. the chapter that i really waited for, because it was pretty boring, the chapter that i waited for i never heard. and he left it out. look, hillary clinton's a disaster. i think it would be bad for women if it were hillary clinton. >> so can we talk about that a little bit? 235 days. that's relevant. she hasn't had a press conference. when she did, i believe that was in november, december. >> it's quite shocking. >> seven questions only. i think he took more than a dozen today alone. >> i think it's pretty shocking having been sort of a reporter, didn't do well in that field,

but in the press world, one of the ways you get media coverage is by doing press conferences. i think he makes a good point, that the media coverage of hillary clinton, no matter what, they cover him because he's more accessible to them. chris wallace will have an interview with hillary clinton this week. it's going to air on "fox news sunday." that's not a press conference, per se, where you can have a lot of back and forth, but you might get more information out of one of those. there's a few things he says that are a little cryptic, like he says it's the most interesting chapter of the clintons he didn't hear. i think he would take issue if anybody wanted to ask him about the interesting chapters in his personal life too. there's enough room to talk about policy without having to get into people's personal lives. >> juan, you want to talk about that poll that real clear politics averaged. >> i think it's a reflection of all the polls together. right now there's a really illegitimate poll out, usc out west. that plumps it up. >> the seven-point trump lead, that one? >> that's a bogus poll.

what you are seeing is the race is within margin of error. it's pretty close. if that's your point, i take it, but that's not big news. the big news today, it seems to me, is this guy, holding a press conference and going off telling reporters, be quiet, calling president obama, our president, ignorant, and then saying that russia should pry in our politics and encouraging russia to get involved. i think that should have been the lead of our show. >> i think it was a joke. >> oh, please. let me just say, if a liberal said that, eric would be all over it. >> talk to us about her avoiding the press. what is she afraid of? >> i think it's ill advised. oh, i'm transparent, i'm for the people, i'm for women, i'm your champion. well, get out there and let us hear your voice. answer the questions. show you don't have anything to hide, that you're not someone who is being corrupt or has a loose relationship with laws and rules and regulations like how

to maintain a proper e-mail server. i think it's very bad. you're running for president of the united states of america and you can't take a question in 235 days. i mean, will we hear from her in terms of a proper press conference? i don't know. i think if dana was in charge of her press team, would you not tell her, let's go, let's prep, let's take some questions. >> i don't know what they know. >> a year. >> let me just say -- >> where's the 30,000 e-mails? they're probably out there. >> she has taken questions. she talks to people. she does interviews. you know what, what about donald trump's tax returns? i wonder where they are. >> he addressed that today. >> let's take a listen to his response about the allegations that he had russia hack the dnc. >> i honestly wish i had that

power. i have nothing to do with putin. i don't know him. i haven't spoken to him. i don't know anything other than he respects me. he doesn't respect our president. i will tell you this, russia, if you're listening, i hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. i think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. let's see if that happens. >> i do -- i actually do believe that was a joke. even though he did tweet that same joke earlier. so it wasn't off the top of his head. but you could hit him back exactly, well, i also hope they could get into your tax returns because he's hiding his tax returns. there is something in there. i don't understand why he won't let it go. by the way, doing a presser during the dnc is like showing up at somebody's wedding and hitting on the bride. i mean -- >> that happens a lot. >> but he does it -- he's going -- he's creatining tumultn

the conventions. >> he said there's nothing about any connection or business interest with russia. eventually when those tax returns come out, if that's not the case, you'll see. he made a very strong statement to refute that today. >> i just can't believe you guys aren't outraged that anybody, i don't care who it is, is inviting a foreign nation to get involved in our politics and influence the outcome of our election. >> i think that was a joke. it's like, the press isn't doing their job, maybe russia will give it to them. >> and if russia's behind this, then turn that over. >> maybe his theory is that as long as everybody's talking about him, that it's a good thing. >> that helps. >> that could be it. i also think that when you are in this position and you are the nominee, you have several audiences all at once. that is the public, it's your troops, potential troops that you'll be commander in chief of, it's your allies, and your enemies. with that comes a lot of responsibility. so if that was a joke, i don't think it's funny. >> i think they're making

excuses. it is so dispiriting to me that we would have a presidential candidate say such a thing. >> when i first read about, this i said, oh, my god, this guy's nuts. then when i listened to it, i could tell that he was saying, if they're out there, maybe somebody could find them. >> can i point something out? we're all in media. what did donald trump do? he took bill clinton, who a lot of people, not me, but a lot of people felt was a great speech last night and was going to be talked about today, and no one is talking about it. we're talking about this. i can't wait to see friday afternoon, probably around 1:00, 2:00, what donald trump does. that's going to take the camera back, spotlight off hillary. anyway, i'm just guessing. we got to go. president obama has mocked donald trump as a reality show candidate who won't be making it to the white house, but he's starting to take trump's candidacy a lot more seriously now. he even sounds a little worried about it, next.
