erica has gotten to know the joe biden that i know and love. he is honest and strong principled and compassionate. he was authentic long before it became a buzz word. breaking tonight after donald trump suggested that russian hackers look for hillary clinton's missing e-mails some of the biggest names in intel blasted the gop candidate. now his campaign manager is here to react. welcome to "the kelly file." i'm megyn kelly. here at the wells fargo center in philadelphia where we are awaiting vice president joe biden and president obama coming up in just a bit. right now in the middle of the democratic national convention republican nominee donald trump managed to dominate the head lines after suggesting russian hackers should try to find democratic nominee hillary clinton's missing e-mails. his critics call it beyond the

pail. his defenders are calling the moment tongue and cheek suggesting he wasn't serious. we have paul manfort here. >> going for it yet again tonight. earlier today it started with an extraordinary news conference in miami, florida where trump was talking to the press for the first time in a little more than a month and started talking about the dnc hacking event which led to controversy with bernie sanders and criticism of him. now that hillary clinton is the nominee, to accept that nomination trump suggested that as you said that the russians he effectively welcomed them to try to find hillary clinton's e-mails, a highly controversial remark. here is how he put it this

morning. >> russia if you are listening, i hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. >> reporter: that immediately kicked off a fire storm with state department officials, white house officials, politicos from across the spectrum suggesting that was inappropriate. the clinton campaign put out a statement saying this goes beyond politics and beyond anything and raises another national security issue because it would appear that the russian government was involved potentially and being investigated by the fbi and that trump was encouraging it. he had a rally earlier today in pennsylvania and he didn't exactly mention it. he didn't talk about it again. we are told that trump today has told fox news that this was sarcasm, that he wasn't serious about it. the clinton campaign and democrats, leon panetta, former

cia director there at the convention in philadelphia suggested that trump is cozying up to dictators and giving them license to break our laws. trump says this is being completely blown out of proportion. in past campaigns this would have been a measure of temperament and trump says it was all a joke. he said it publically and the kind of thing that causes big-time controversy and not yet resolved. >> one of the biggest names to attack trump remarks former cia chief leon panetta. >> i find the statements to be totally outrageous. you have now a presidential candidate who is in fact asking the russians to engage in american politics. and i just think that that is beyond the pail.

>> paul monafort joins me now. was this a joke? >> what i find outrageous is mr. panetta focussing on what mr. trump said in a sarcastic way and not focussing on the real problem. the real problem is that she had an unsecured server sitting in her closet at her home to be hacked by anybody in the world. that is what the issue is. the national security outrage should be focussed on that. >> that has gotten attention. trump created a fire storm by saying something new which was the suggestion that he would hope that the russians would come and hack and turn over -- i hope you are able to find the 33,000 e-mails that are missing, russia. >> first of all, he didn't encourage anybody to hack. what he said was that the 33 illegally deleted e-mails are missing and was make ag

sarcastic point about the 33,000 e-mails. the bottom line of the whole thing is that as far as what people should be outraged about is the fact that anybody could have hacked into the server of the secretary of state and gotten secrets that could compromise our national security. >> let me ask you this because if it was sarcasm and many thought that in the moment of course many others didn't why did he double down on it in a tweet saying if any other person perhaps they should share them with the fbi. then his rapid response director came out and said what he intended was hand them over but inviting russia to do so goes too far. he didn't say it with sarcasm. many people believe trump meant it. >> what we mean is that american people should be outraged by server being in a compromised position. >> i got that. >> that is the point of this whole story. the reason it is back in the

news again is not because of something mr. trump said this morning, it is because of the rigged election apparent. >> why did he follow it up with a tweet? why would rapid response director not say it is sarcasm. he tried to explain it. >> the tweet was talking about turning over e-mails to fbi. fbi seemed to prosecute the case against mrs. clinton. maybe it was the 33,000 e-mails they come to a different conclusion. >> let me ask about tax returns. mr. trump made news today and you followed up suggesting he is not returning tax returns prior to november. just to clarify, because he says he is being audited. will he release tax returns? >> that is what he says yes. >> just the point that others raise which is the irs has come out and said there is nothing

preventing a candidate, prevents individuals from sharing their tax information. tax experts said during an audit president nixon exposed his tax returns even while under audit. why don't american people deserve to see those tax returns? >> the irs and the obama administration is a credible source of independents. secondly the fact that an audit is going on means that the irs filings are not complete. mr. trump said clearly once an audit is done he will release the taxes. >> will he release the list of charities to whom he has donated over the past seven years? >> that question hasn't been asked of him. it is part of a tax return. i can't speak for him on that matter. he has been consistent which is when the audit is done he will

release all of the tax returns not parts of it. >> appreciate you being with us tonight. all the best to you. right here in the wells fargo center we await the arrival of vice president joe biden. he will be speaking to the crowd trying to fire up the white working-class voters with whom he does well with his messages. as he enters the arena to the rocky theme song. biden from scranton pennsylvania just down the road. said the hillary clinton campaign is really looking to him to try to sure up support and vouch for her. let's take a listen to the vice president of the united states joe biden. [ cheers and applause ]

thank you, thank you, thank you. i love you. ladies and gentlemen, thank you, thank you, thank you. i love you. ladies and gentlemen, eight years ago i stood on a stage in denver and i accepted your nomination to be vice president of the united states. and every single day since then has been an honor of our lives for jill and me. every day we have been grateful

to barack obama and michelle for asking to join them in an incredible journey, a journey that can only happen in america. we not only have worked together as it becomes pretty obvious, we have become friends. we are now family. we are family. folks, we have all seen over the last eight years what president obama means to this country. he is the embodiment of honor, resolve and character. one of the finest presidents we have ever had. that's right.

this is a man of character. and he has become a brother to jill and me. and michelle i don't know where you are, kid, but you are incredible. you are incredible. when i was talking to barack today it is no longer who will give the best speech you already did that. you were incredible monday night. the delaware delegation as they say in southern delaware barack and i married way up way up. folks, as i stand here tonight i

see so many friends and colleagues like my buddy chris dodd so many people here. i see the faces of those who have placed their belief in barack and me so many faces. but one, this is kind of a bittersweet moment for jill and me and our family. in 2008 when he was about to deploy to iraq and again in 2012 our son, beau introduced me to the country and placed my name in nomination. you got a glimpse of what an incredibly fine young man beau was. thank you.

thank you. his wife and two kids are here tonight. as earnest hemmingway once wrote, the world breaks everyone. and afterwards many are strong. i have been made strong at the broken places by my love jill by my heart, my son, hunter and the love of my life my ashley and by all of you. i mean this sincerely. those of you who have been through this you know i mean when i say by all of you, your love your prayers, your support. you know what? we talk about, we think about the countless thousands of other

people who suffered so much more than we have with so much less support, so much less reason to go on. but they get up every morning, every day. they put one foot in front of the other. they keep going. that's the unbreakable spirit of the people of america. that's who we are. that's who we are. don't forget it. like the people in the neighborhood that jill and i grew up in. the kid in clement with the most courage always jumped in when you were double-teamed or your back was against the wall who became a cop because he always wanted to help people.

the middle daughter of three daughters who always made her mother smile, who was a hero to her sister now a major in the united states marine corps because i wanted to serve my country. the teachers who jill knows and so many of you know who take money out of their own pockets to buy pencils and notebooks for the students who can't afford them. why? why? because being a teacher is not what they do it's who the you know what i know. for real these are the people who are the heart and soul of this country. it's the america that i know

the america that hillary knows and tim kaine knows. you know i have known hillary for well over 30 years before she was first lady of the united states when she became first lady. we served together in the united states senate. and during her years as secretary of state once a week we had breakfast in my home the vice president's residence. everybody knows she is smart. everybody knows she is tough. but i know what she is passionate about. i know hillary. hillary understands. hillary gets it. hillary understands that it is about saving the mom and the dad from the indignity of having to

look at their talented child and say i'm so sorry, the bank wouldn't lend me the money. i can't help you to get to school. i know that about hillary. hillary understood that for years millions of people went to bed staring at the ceiling thinking what if i get breast cancer or he has a heart attack? i will lose everything. what will we do then? i know about hillary clinton. ladies and gentlemen, we all understand what it will mean for our daughters and granddaughters when hillary clinton walks into the oval office as president of the united states of america. it will change their lives. my daughters and granddaughters

can do anything any son or grand son can do. and she will prove it. so let me say it as clearly as i can. if you live in the neighborhoods like the one jill and i grew up in if you worry about your job and getting a decent pay, if you worry about your children's education, if you are taking care of an elderly parent then there is only one person in this election who will help you. there is only one person in this race who will be there who has always been there for you and that is hillary clinton's life story. it's not just who she is. it is her life story. she is always there. she has always been there. and so has tim kaine.

ladies and gentlemen, i state the obvious and i'm not trying to be a wise guy here. i mean it. that is not donald trump's story. just listen to me a second without booing or cheering. i mean this sincerely. we should really think about this. his cynicism is unbounded. his lack of empathy and compassion can be summed up in a phrase i suspect he is most proud of having made famous you're fired. really i'm not joking. think about that. think beabout that. think about everything you learned as a child no matter where you are raised. how can there be pleasure in saying "you're fired"? he is trying to tell us he cares

about the middle class. give me a break. that is a bunch of malarkey. [ cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ] whatever he thinks and i mean this in the bottom of my heart, i know i'm called middle class joe. in washington that is not meant as a compliment. it means you are not sophisticated. i know why we are strong. i know why we have held together. i know why we are united. it's because there has always been a growing middle class. this guy doesn't have a clue

about the middle class, not a clue. folks, when the middle class does well the rich do very well and the poor have hope. they have a way up. he has no clue about what makes america great. actually he has no clue period. folks, let me -- [ crowd chanting ]

>> folks, let me say something that has nothing to do with politics. let me talk about something that i am deadly serious about. this is a complicated and uncertain world we live in. the threats are too great. the times are too uncertain to elect donald trump as president of the united states. let me finish. no major party nominee in the history of this nation has ever known less or has been less prepared to deal with our national security. we cannot elect a man who exploits our fears of isis and other terrorists who has no

plan whatsoever to make us safer. a man who embraces the tactics of our enemies, torture, religious intolerance, you all know all the republicans know that's not who we are. it betrays our values. it alienates those who we need in the fight against isis. donald trump with all his rhetoric would literally make us less safe. we cannot elect a man who belittles our closest allies while embracing dictators like vladimir putin. i mean it. a man who seeks to division in america for his own gain and disorder around the world, a man who confuses bluster with strength we simply cannot let that happen as americans.

period. folks, i have -- no one ever doubts when i say because sometimes i say all that i mean. folks, all etlet me tell you what i have told every world leader i met and i met them all, it's never been a good bet to bet against america. we have the finest fighting force in the world. not only -- [ crowd chanting ]

>> not only do we have the largest economy in the world. we have the strongest economy in the world. we have the most productive workers in the world. and given a fair shot a fair chance americans have never, ever ever ever let their country down. never. never. ordinary people like us who do extraordinary things. we have had candidates before attempted to get elected by appealing to our fears, but they never succeeded because we do not scare easily. we never bow. we never bend. we never break when confronted with crisis. we endure. we overcome and we always always always move forward. that's why i can say with absolute conviction i am more optimistic about our chances

today than when i was elected as a 29-year-old kid to the senate. the 21st century is going to be the american century because we lead not only by the example of our power, but by the power of our example. that is the history of the journey of america. and god willing hillary clinton will write the next chapter in that journey. we are america, second to none and we own the finish line. don't forget it. god bless you all and may god protect our troops. we're america! [ cheers and applause ] >> middle class joe making an

appeal to working class americans and hitting donald trump saying he doesn't have a clue about the middle class. in fact he says he has no clue period resulting in the audience chanting "not a clue." we haven't seen that too much in this convention. a little bit but this has been his job. perhaps we will hear more from tim kaine saying no major party nominee has known less than donald trump. he seeks to soewow division. that was his job tonight and then his boss president obama will come to the stage and do some of the same go after donald trump and try to set his own legacy we are told making the case for another four years of a democratic president. we will have that for you right after the break and a story largely overlooked today, quite a big one.

otezla. show more of you. president obama some 12 years after he wowed the crowds at the democratic national convention with a vision of one america. president obama tonight speaks again. this time to a country more divided and more discouraged than anytime in recent history according to polls. here is some of what he had to say when he burst on to the national scene in 2004. >> there is not a liberal

america and a conservative america. there is the united states of america. there is not a black america and a white america and latino america and asian america. there is the united states of america. the pundits like to slice and dice our country into red states and blue states red states for republicans, blue states for democrats. but i have news for them, too. we worship an awesome god and we don't like federal agents poking around in libraries in the red states. >> just over four years later he became president. tonight it is his turn to pass the torch. he will be speaking to a different america than he did 12 or 8 years ago, an america that appears to be deeply divided politically and a recent poll showed

69% believe race relations are bad in america, levels we have not seen since l.a. riots and a far cry from 2009 when this president took office and 66% of americans thought race relations were generally good. there is the electorate who are not thrilled with their presidential choices. 43% of democrats and 40% of republicans are satisfied with the candidates. many want neither. a wall street journal poll show americans have been disheartened about the nation's course that nearly three quarters of voters believe the nation has gone off on the wrong track. not the hopeful vision that mr. obama described in 2004. i want to bring in charles krauthammer right now. charles, what a 12 years it has been for that then young man barack obama who went on to become a president and did not quite achieve the dream he spoke

of in 2004. >> i think there is certain irony in his accusing the pundits of slicing and dicing america. i think he contributed quite a lot of that not so much around ethnic or racial lines although there was some of that mostly around social and class lines. he certainly indulged in that in his campaign demonizing republicans, demonizing conservatives. i fault him for that. i fault him also for on the racial issue sort of raising false expectations. that could have been utterly sincere. he might have thought it would change things in a fundamental way. i never did. i was proud to live in a country that would elect a black president. i would have chosen someone else. but nonetheless it was a great moment. that was never going to heal the racial divide. we have history of 200 years of

slaveriy, 100 years of jim crow 50 years of what you might call civil rights emancipation. it takes longer than that. the fundamentals of what is ailing in race relations having to do with the conditions in which many inner city blacks are living are not going to change under one man. that is one thing where i give him something of a pass simply because it was never in his power to change the fundamentals of race relations. >> so when he comes out here tonight this has to be a sort of swan song for him. amazing when you see how young he looked and how much the presidency presidency ages a man. what do you think his goals ought to be? >> what he is going to do tonight i think is number one defend what he has done. he took a big hit from the donald trump convention speech which painted a crime in the

streets, sort of out of control. i think obama has a good case that that is gross exaggeration. for example, violent crime is down 50% over the last quarter century. there has been a minor uptick in the big cities over the last year or so. fundamentally, the cities have been transformed. the crime rate has been reduced. they want to make the case that we are not exactly living in a blade runner universe. on the other hand i think what he is going to want to do is to try to boost the candidacy of the least popular democratic candidate in memory because he knows he is the one to carry on the legacy. and that i think he will do in a way that is probably also sincere. she served him as his secretary of state. i think there is certain irony here. she is the one who made him wait

eight years to reach the white house. i think he wants to pay her back in some way. also to bolster his own legacy. >> he made her wait. great to see you. thank you. joining us now with more trump campaign spokesperson. let me get your reaction bill to the two interviews we have done tonight with trump today and charles on what we can expect from your former boss president obama. >> paul has a hard job to go out there and just say things that are untrue or don't make sense. when he calls what donald trump said a joke this is a very serious issue. and the presidency is a very serious thing. as the video showed harry truman talking about the importance of the presidency is you are making hard decisions every time you make a decision. for someone to joke about

something so serious that is so severe a breach of american diplomacy of our national security is not funny. >> trump himself said today that he was being sarcastic and it was a joke. >> that is why he included the last line. there have been several rallies when we were talking about the e-mail scandal and hillary clinton. now we know from the fbi that she was in foreign nations with devices that were unsecure and 33,000 e-mails disappear to which the fbi says we can't prove it. you and i both know if any of us in a room was investigated for the fbi for -- >> we would all be in big trouble. kick your door down and confiscate it.

>> respond to the point about how he shouldn't be joking about something like that. >> it was more tongue in cheek simply because that is the issue. democrats were hacked. their e-mails were released and now today they have dumped voice mails. we keep hearing that everything is okay nothing to see here, move along, the economy is great. and at the same time everything is bad. white people are racist. cops are bad. the democrats need to make up their mind what they can no longer do is continue to lie to the american public and tell them things they know is no longer true. >> joe biden trying to appeal to white working class in particular. his numbers, donald trump's numbers are very strong with that dprupgroup of people. he is killing her. i think it is 37 point difference with white working class, noncollege educated. look at that.

61% over her 23%. how on earth does president obama or joe biden turn that around? >> a couple of things. for starters there is an imbalance in both noncollege educated and college educated americans. the gaps are as big on either side of that ledger. if you look inside those numbers white working class women are where the battlefield will be. i truly believe that. as people listen more about what hillary clinton is about versus about what donald trump is about they see donald trump is about donald trump and hillary clinton has been fighting for working class people her entire life. is she going to win white working class women or men by huge margins in november? probably not. she probably will do better than polls suggest and as we move into a new phase. >> we were told this election was going to be based upon the latino vote. hillary clinton chooses an old

white man who speaks spanish. that is a slap in the face -- >> donald trump is -- >> republicans aren't running on race. >> i have to leave it there. great to see you both. also tonight the democrats have decided that they are going to win the white house with a new push for gun control. and the pelosi sound byte wasn't a quote. she said it a different way and we will debate it. stay tuned. listen. >> hold it against their own economic interest because of guns because of gays and because of god, the three gs. >> god, guns and gays. really? tucker carlson and richard fowler have thoughts on that. a bombshell in baltimore where marilyn mosby drops all remaining charges in the death of freddie gray. wait until you see what she said at her news conference.

nancy pelosi taking heat for remarks she made a couple of hours ago to journalist mpt when asked why donald trump is beating hillary clinton when it comes to working class males the former house speaker offered a harsh take on what is a key

group of voters in this election. >> so many times noncollege educated white males have voted republican they voted against their own economic it tropical storm storm -- interests because of guns gays and because of god. >> joining me now richard fowler. tucker that's the way she put it earlier. we misquoted her. what do you make of it? >> she pulled the mask off and not pretending anymore. they have contempt for the middle class, for rural america and are now admitting it. the president caught saying something like this and spent a lot of time saying he didn't mean what he said. nancy pelosi has told us everything we suspected which is they don't like the core population of the country which is why they are trying to

replace it with immigrants and attacking the middle of the country as racist. i'm glad she said that. >> the criticism, what she is saying is they are too stupid to understand that they should be voting democrat? >> i think if you look at the convention and this hall you will see and you heard throughout the week at the beginning you heard labor unions and working people saying that we support a democratic candidate that will raise the minimum wage stand up for working people and fight for working families. what we saw last week was the contrast to that. i may not have used the same words as nancy pelosi. what the democratic party is standing for is making sure everybody has a chance at the american dream. >> that is a proactive argument. what is heard in that sound byte is that they don't understand that democratic policies are better for them. they vote against their economic interest. can it be that they believe in

the republican philosophy. >> this is 200 proof distilled contempt. you hear similar strains from the republican elites to be completely blunt with you. this is why we are going through political turmoil is because of disconnect between people in charge they hate the people they lead. >> that is why donald trump is so popular with white caucasians because he is taking on trade idea of bad trade deals which sold a lot of blue collar jobs and white collar jobs to other countries. the democratic party has always been the party minus nafta, the party which you will see hillary clinton say we are against the trans pacific partnership. >> she was in favor of it before. >> the melt down in baltimore plus remarks from president obama. stay tuned. 6, tracfone began with one important belief:

a major blow today to the black lives matter crowd as one of the group's most prominent cases completely falls apart less than 24 hours after the so-called mothers of the movement were featured here at the dnc. marilyn moez by announcing she is dropping all the remaining charges in the case of freddie gray suggesting in a fiery speech near the scene of his arrest that convictions were unlikely because what she called the obvious bias of investigators. this is how she addressed the issue today. >> we do not believe that freddie gray killed himself. we stand by the medical examiner's findings that freddie gray's death was a homicide. we could try this case a hundred times and cases just like it and still end up with the same results.

as a mother as a mother the decision not to proceed on the remaining trials is agonizing, however, as the chief prosecutor i must consider the dismal likelihood of conviction at this point. >> finally, a defense attorney and former prosecutor, defense and civil rights attorney. mark you've been saying that since the beginning. first, is this a prosecuting attorney or activist? >> she frightens me more than hurricanes and clowns. what she showed today should make it clear to everyone she's motivated, it appears, more by politics and emotion than by justice. and if i'm a cop in baltimore, i'm still very afraid of this woman. >> what do you make of it? she sounded like an activist out there. >> someone had to step up and hold those accountable who wanted to avoid accountability.
