tv The Kelly File FOX News October 18, 2016 9:00pm-10:01pm PDT
9:00 pm
tonight. i'm bill o'reilly please always remember that the spin stops here because we are definitely looking out for you. breaking tonight, it's been 16 months since donald trump declared his candidacy and it is now less than 24 hours until his final presidential debate. he is down many the national polls, struggling in the swing states and the question tonight, what will the most unpredictable man in politics do with his last best chance to change the course of this race? welcome to the "the kelly file," everyone. i'm megyn kelly live in las vegas. we are onset here at the mgm grand looking over a city where millions show up each year thinking that if things just go their way, everything they know could change. tomorrow hillary clinton and donald trump will join them. the pundits are saying clinton should play it safe, write out
9:01 pm
her lead, don't take any chances. and trump, well he has nothing to lose. here's a little of the rally he just wrapped up. >> well in 21 days we're going to win the state of colorado and we're going to win the white house. vi a feeling this is another brexit. this is going to be interesting. tomorrow night is going to be interesting. now she's home sleeping and i'm working. so that's the way it's going to be in the white house, too. she'd be sleeping, i'd be working. we will make america wealthy again. we will make america strong again. we will make america safe again and we will make america great again. thank you everybody. god bless you. >> in moments we'll go over brand-new poll with chris
9:02 pm
stirewalt but we begin with campaign karl cameron reporting about stunning news about who donald trump is bringing with hum tomorrow night. >> reporter: so tomorrow night what happens in vegas could change the course of the american body of politic according to donald trump. this afternoon at the white house president obama was pretty tough on donald trump at a joint news conference with the italian prime minister in the rose garden. just a few hours after that criticism from the president, the trump campaign has now announced they'll have a special guest tomorrow. it will be the president's kenyan born half brother, malik obama who is a trump supporter. and he will be in the audience. he has said that he does not intend to have any kind of a pre-event news conference as the clinton accusers did at the last debate. but this is one of those things that's meant to be a head game and a little bit of psychological operations against the opposition. for his part today in colorado,
9:03 pm
a battleground state where he's trailing in the polls, trump was pointing out that he is now convinced that the media is rigging the election against him by trying to depress his voter turnout, an interesting turn of events since his aides have said for quite some time much of his attacks on clinton has been designed to suppress her turnout. here's how trump put it today >> even though we're doing pretty good in the polls, i don't believe the polls anymore. i don't believe them. i don't believe them. and if there's ten and if there's one or two bad ones with, that's the only one they show. believe me folks, we're doing great. the press has created a rigged system and poisoned the mind of so many of oush voters. i think the media is trying to discourage our people from going out to vote. >> and trump is of course not running against the media, he's running against hillary clinton.
9:04 pm
and he's road trust tested is series of new attacks on her and some new policies. today he suggested that it's time for term limits and he's put forth his proposal. watch. >> if i'm elected president i will push for a constitutional amendment to propose term limits on all members of congress. i'm proposing a term limit of six years for members of the house and 12 years for members of the senate >> reporter: very difficult to accomplish but tremendously popular with voters on both sides fed up with their candidates and the nature and tenor of this race for the last year and a half. >> thank you. well those details from the trump campaign trail come just as brand-new fox news polls show the republican nominee picks up one point over last week's poll. that leaves mrs. clinton with a seven-point edge. joining me now, chris stirewalt
9:05 pm
and dana perino. >> he served as secretary of education under president reagan. great to see you all. so i mean, he doesn't believe the polls? >> well -- >> the man who has been talking nothing but polls for an entire year and a half. >> politicians, how many times have we heard that the only poll that matters on election day. you know who always says that in the one who's losing. this is normal, right? we want to make this into an abnormal election. we've never seen anything like it. donald trump does talk louder. he doesn't do things that other people don't do. but we know what this looks like. this looks like 1996 and i don't whether you remember but the republicans didn't win that one. >> and the opposition doesn't seem to be getting any softer, dana. 61% of voters say that clinton has a temperament to serve
9:06 pm
effective uly as president, 61% believe that trump does not. she has led in 17 straight four-way national polls. 17. >> and in fox news poll tonight that just came out, one of the things -- she beats him on every issue except for the economy. he did a little better on that one. if he can make the debate tomorrow night not about himself but what he would do to change the economy -- >> how about malik obama? >> that is a little bit of a distraction. who am i advising? what do i know? that's an interesting choice. >> right. >> this is a legacy play for him. i was thinking about this earlier. a lot of people were talking about president obama laying out his legacy. but tomorrow night and the next thee weeks, donald trump, this is a legacy move. whatever happens, that will be the biggest story of his life. >> as we have done for a year
9:07 pm
and a half, we look at donald trump and we marvel and we don't understand why he makes some choices like bringing the president's half brother to the presidential can bait he's having with hillary clinton. and you actually believe, unlike others, that that is actually what he needs, that he doesn't need to be pushing the crossover voters now. he needs to be generating enthusiasm in the base. >> she needs to strengthen the base, absolutely. what does he do to crossover, change his view bs with change his mind. he needs to remind people why he is where he is. and he's at 40%. maybe not enough to win but he needs to remind people of what he was talking about, the immigration issue, islamic terrorism, the sad and depressed state of america. 40% of so of the american people like him and want to vote for him, maybe more. we shall see. i assume with all of the piling on with trump we're still going to let democracy work and see what happens.
9:08 pm
the dice, one out of 18% chance he has. roll that dice, you might get one out of 18. possible. it happens here all of the time. people don't leave winning but they win occasionally. there's a serious dimension to donald trump otherwise you think those 40% of americans are what hillary clinton says, which are deplorable people. they're not. she speaks to real issues, important issues. i hope he does tomorrow night. if it's all stunt and histrionics, infantile vulgarity, then he's done. one other thing. there's theoretical belief about how you're going to do and operational belief. you know, texas a&m is playing alabama this weekend. check the line. i did down here. 16 points. >> i know what bill has been doing the past day or two in vegas. >> well, you're here. >> he never shows follow-up for live onset -- it's interesting. >> inside joke.
9:09 pm
>> operationally those guys will go into that game believing they can win. that's what he's got to do tomorrow night and do it in a serious way. >> his bheefs haven't all panned out. we saw at the beginning of the race donald trump telling us that he's going to change the electoral map. watch new york, new jersey, i just took a look, we went back and look at the seven states he continued to mention, new york, she's up 20, new jersey he said, 12, california he said he would play in, she's up 20, oregon up 19, illinois up 15, washington state he's up 14, michigan she's up ten and now you've got states like georgia, arizona, texas and utah moving from deep red to pink. they're no longer solid republican. >> rosette. >> medium rare. >> the reality for donald trump, he wants to talk about a rigged election, saying that the election is going to be stolen. you've got to be close to have it stolen and he's not close.
9:10 pm
that's the problem. he's got a narrative where he's telling his supporters -- he's prefiguring a defeat. this is what thing i can't understand about his message. it says don't vote really because we're losing an they're going to steal it any way. it's rigged. it confound my thinking that a may jr. presidential candidate wants to take a risk, which really is the envy of the world. we do this really well. and i don't think it works. >> tonight dana, she's facing a lot of controversy as well and we're going to get to the wikileaks scandal in our next block. but donald trump jr. has come under fire today was similar to his father he also wept on a bunch of radio shows and made some comments disparaging quote fat people and making light of the aurora, colorado mass shooting that resulted in the deaths of some children. here's a clip of what he said that's gotten him in trouble.
9:11 pm
>> everything was going good until we saw gas and sparks, sounded like really strong fire works. and this then you hear people yelling. a girl gets up hold her jaw and i guess she had got shot. >> overall, two thumbs-up. >> that's not it. that's not spliced together. they're not responding to it as illegitimate or spliced together. we're more than willing to accept any comment from trump on that. there are a few of these that have surfaced tonight >> locker room talk or whatever they want to describe it is turning off people all across the country. what's really sad for me, he was in colorado today and there's a huge crowd there and they're so excited in him and they believed in him and his message and he's telling them that the poll is rigged, the media is rigged, none of this is true. it's giving people false hope or belief in what that's happening and they have legitimate issues in front of the government.
9:12 pm
the worst thing for republicans or conservatives is wishful thinking and we're awash in it. >> bill, i'll give you the final word. >> most of the talk here has been about donald trump. most of it has been critical. there is someone else running, i think she's a disgrace. i think what bill sapphire said 20 years ago, she's a congenital liar, it's true. you shouldn't say thing about fat people, and you shouldn't act like an infant in your conversation. but we're talking about the future of the country. and i think that hillary clinton may bring this country to the brink of disaster. paul ryan, if you want to cite trump, paul ryan pointed out if we keep spending the way we're spending with we may not be able to pull it back. trump may not get it right but she'll get it all wrong. >> great to see you all. i know where bill is going. there he goes. let it ride, baby. >> not anymore. well for the first time ever in less than 24 hours a fox news

9:18 pm
breaking tonight for the first time we are hearing from the fbi agent at the center of an explosive new controversy on hillary clinton's e-mail. patrick kennedy, a top clinton lieutenant is being accused of offering favors to the fbi if the fbi would cover hillary's tracks during the investigation into her e-mail. and tonight the fbi agent in the middle of all of this is telling the "washington post" that kennedy came to him seeking this favor, not the other way around. famed harvard law professor alan dershowitz joining us on whether any laws were broken. but first to catherine. >> the retired fbi agent said they agreed to work together. but once he learned that kennedy wanted an e-mail downclassed, he backed out. the agent pressured him to change the e-mail classification and relayed the kennedy conversation as a quid pro quo.
9:19 pm
the fbi records also show kennedy pushed hard and often to reduce the number of classified e-mail found on clinton's personal server she used as secretary of state. and kennedy did so for months after congress issued a subpoena and preservation order for the e-mail in march of last year >> trying to change the e-mail after march 4th, 2015 would in effect change or alter the evidence that had been requested by congress. >> so first of all, these were documents for public release through the foia process, not necessarily what we shared with congress. >> these documents report career state department personnel were quote suspicious of a special group of employees brought in to review the e-mail classification. some had worked with david kendall, hillary clinton's long time personal attorney. they described an atmosphere of a shadow government. >> hillary clinton was out there trying to get her former people, her own attorneys to be the one
9:20 pm
that made the determination on these documents. >> the state department would not even acknowledge today the appearance of a conflict. and late tonight the republican chairman of the house judiciary committee is asking the attorney general to investigation kennedy for possible violations of public corruption laws.catherin. joining me now with more, alan dershowitz, harvard law professor and author of the book e leg tile dysfunction. this guy kennedy was actively involved in covering hillary's tracks. and when the fbi agent involved said we can't change the classification on this document, thank you for your offer, but we can't, we went above the guy's head and went to the head of the fbi's counterterrorism division michael stein batch and to steinback's credit, he said i'm not doing this, you don't
9:21 pm
control us, sir. and the e-mail classification remained the same. you tl me whether patrick kennedy can face any legal consequences for his deeds. >> well certainly this races policy issues. and it's a fair point for any voter to think about. but i searched the criminal code today and i could not find any possible criminal statue that was violated despite donald trump's statement that this is a quote felony crime. agencies negotiate with themselves all of the time. presumably if the classification would change, congress would know about it. they see the original and they seen the change. it's not an obstruction of justice or not a defines of the subpoena. and interagency quid pro quo is common. you find agencies saying i'll do this for you wu, you do this for me. >> when there's a pending subpoena in the so pena was in. they had top produce the
9:22 pm
documents. kennedy works were us, works for you and me. instead of looking out for our interest he's looking to protect hillary's back. we've got to get this classification change. here are a bunch of goodies if you'll change it. >> that's a fair point of view. but from a criminal point of view as long as there was no intention to prevent congress from knowing that the original class fiegs cause to be classified and then it was changed, if that were to happen for a public release, for a foia release, that would not be a crime. it's very easy to throw around the term crime. and i think too much in our politics we tend to criminalize policy differences and i'm always against that. whether it's governor perry of texas or tom delay, i was against that. we have to be careful that the criminal law is only applied objectively by neutral career politicians and nobody should be -- go ahead. >> giving you that point. >> yeah. >> you tell me as a lawyer whether what this guy kennedy
9:23 pm
did smells bad and whether there should be some sort of accountability in your judgment as somebody who studies and knows the law for this kind of behavior after you've received a subpoena. >> i think so. and i think it might to be an internal department mental investigation. you put your finger on it exactly to see whether he was serving the interest of the american public or the interest of an incumbent in office. and that's a fair point to investigation. the point i'm making is let's not jump to using terms like felony and criminal when we feel strongly that a person violated policies. that's a very important line not to go over. that's why i was so upset when donald trump said he wants to see hillary clinton in jail. i would be equally upset if hillary clinton said if i get elected i'm going to investigate trump university and put trump in jail. we should not fix politics and criminal justice. we have to keep criminal justice objective and a political. >> fair point.
9:24 pm
great to see you >> thank you. also tonight, less than 24 hours after melania trump breaks her silence on the women accusing her husband of sexual misconduct, one of those accusers is now pushing back and how. we'll have the story. plus 'em bar razzing new revelations for the clinton campaign in the latest wikileaks dump. governor mike huckabee is here on how this could play in tomorrow night's big debate. don't go away. >> more over, we are not checking -- we're not going to fact check each of the e-mails that were stolen. gary, gary, gary... i am proud of you, my man. making simple, smart cash back choices... with quicksilver from capital one. you're earning unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase, everywhere. like on that new laptop. quicksilver keeps things simple, gary. and smart, like you!

9:28 pm
i had no idea. it's opened up a whole new world for me. ♪ breaking tonight, wikileaks released new e-mails today from the more than 50,000 message hacked from the account of i hillary clinton's campaign manager. this has left the clinton campaign doing daily damage control in for more thar three weeks. in moments we'll be joined by mike huck peay but first ed henry has the latest
9:29 pm
>> as hillary clinton headed to the vegas with the pollings surthing she could be on the vernal of history by becoming the first female president, these final days for her have become a joyless, nail gnawing slog. that's in part to round is 1 today of wikileaks dumping out thousands more of john pa december to's e-mail, many showing divisions within the democratic party and the campaign itself. look at this e-mail podesta predicted that joe biden would run, he did not but also fretted about hillary clinton losing. we're way more likely than not to win the nomination. we've taken on water that will not be pumped out of the boat. a lot has to do with her insingss, meaning clinton. this follows previous e-mails where one questioned what was in clinton's core. and while we had seen messages where podesta talked about a
9:30 pm
catholic spring to one democratic outlet called the dictatorship within the church, wikileaks sebts out another e-mail where a colleague went further saying they should launch protests that mirror the controversial tactics of occupy wall street. and then there are the progressive supporters of bernie sanders. she's been courting them by campaigning with sanders. there's a new e-mail out today showing pa december that privately called bernie a do fuss. joining me now with more a governor mike huckabee and mow lee ki. governor, you know, you may not know that wikileaks was doing anything if you watch channels other than fox. the drip drip drip of damaging e-mails out of these pa december that e-mails is shocking. it's shocking. you tell me whether it would
9:31 pm
move the needle. >> well it would have plugged holes in the boat and sunk a ship of anybody other than hillary clinton. but the media is so in the tank for clinton. let me give you a specific example. last week on one of the evening's newscasts, 23 minutes from the big three networks were devolted to negative stories about donald trump. the entirety coverage regard scandalous things in the wikileaks for hillary clinton, less than one minute. that's 23 to one. journalists have given $400,000 to clinton. 14,000 has gone to donald trump. donald trump is not just fighting hillary clinton. he's having to fight a concerted and use the word conspiracy if you will, but there is a target on his back and the media has pinned it there. >> you know, moe, there's no question that the access hollywood moment for donald trump on that bus and the nine women who have come forward
9:32 pm
thereafter is a big story. if it's true and he's a sexual predator as is alleged twhab's a major story. but the stuff on her side is also bad. pushing for a catholic spring, going after an entire religious group after that team lectured us for two year about how we're not supposed to do that, we're not supposed to categorize muslims in one way. are you kidding me? >> you got to do the typical disclaimer. none of the e-mail have been authenticated. >> russia is bad. i got it. >> but look, i don't know how real these e-mails are. what i do know is look, we were all there. we were all there during the fight for the contraceptive mandate and there were a lot of progressive catholics who stood up and provided an alternate point of view. and they organized themselves. >> a catholic spring? >> here's what i think.
9:33 pm
>> it's needy latinos and catholic spring and disparaging talk about a lot of figures that they don't happen to like. there's an elitist in these e-mails that is off putting. >> i think having been through a lot of campaigns in my life, i would hate to see any of the e-mail of any campaign that i've worked on releases. >> could wow be specific? >> no. but we spend a lot of time talking about things, talking about other people, talking about what we're going to do and sometimes you use language that you wouldn't necessarily use in other places, right? i mean i can only imagine what the e-mails from inside the trump campaign read of the past few weeks and the things that they're saying. >> we don't have those. >> we don't have those. there are a lot of things from donald trump that we don't have. is there a smoking gun here? something that's damning? probably not. is there a lot of stuff that's embarrassing, sure. >> the question is, we're only
9:34 pm
20% through on the wikileaks disclosures. they say they have 75% more. we've only received one quarter of what they have. and you tell me whether three weeks is enough time for her to die a death by a thousand cuts if you will. she's not going to have the big moment most likely where he falls down in the middle of the debate tomorrow night. but little by little are these wikileaks releases hurting her? >> well they would be if they were being heard by most of america but they're not because only fox news and some of the conservative outlets are carrying them. but one thing they do reveal, and this is so important, i love moe, he's a great guy but when he says they haven't been verified, neither have the allegations about donald trump but the media treats it as if it had been settled in a court of law and it has not. nobody has denied the veracity of the claims. they said it came from some source it shouldn't have come from. what we learn from it is this is the truth from hillary clinton that we do not get in her speeches.
9:35 pm
those truth moments come when she's talking to goldman sachs for a million dollars a pop. what we've learned is she has a contemptuous attitude towards christians, catholics, toward evangelicals, toward jews. this is a woman who calls half of the country deplorable. this is a clear choice for president this time. >> it's more like a quarter are of the country. half of the country supports trump, half of the half. great to see you both. looking forward to tomorrow night. a second undercover video has now surfaced tonight from some folks who caught democratic staffers on camera confessing to trouble making at republican rallies. james rosen has the breaking news. a battle is forming now between melania trump and one of her husband's accusers. howie kurtz has the story next. is that ice-t?

professor said that stoynoff called him in tears the night of the incident. >> joining me more were howie kurtz. good to see you. >> hi, megyn. >> this is an extraordinary response from people magazine. it's not just that we trust or writer. it's here are six people who she told the night of the alleged attack, the day after the alleged attack, an independent witness who says she was with her for the melania trump exchange. if this is a conspiracy, it's really well organized by people. >> i don't think the election is going to turn on this. and most of these allegations involve two people in the room. the detailed accounts from these six people a decade ago when there was no intention to go public and natasha stoynoff decided not to go public, adds credibility to her account. but one of the reasons it's stul many the news is donald trump has attacked all of the female accusers as liars and attacked the media for carrying their
9:44 pm
accounts and helping to rig the election in his words. >> and he doesn't come out and say it isn't true, i'm not going to dignify this with is back and forth, he attacks their looks. he's been pointing to everybody that he -- he's been pointing everybody to pictures of this reporter suggesting i would never. i don't find her attractive. and today his -- an executive vice president of the trump organization, his top attorney, michael cohen doubled down on that. listen to him on cnn. we weren't comfortable when he suggested these women were attractive? >> beauty is in the eye of the beholder. you know, some people may think they're beautiful, others don't. i think what mr. trump is really trying to say is that they're not, they're not somebody that he would be attracted to and therefore the whole thing is nonsense. >> which just for the record makes absolutely no difference when it comes to harassment. it ooh not about i'm so attracted to you, i can't keep my hands to myself.
9:45 pm
it's about power. >> donald trump has done a couple of smart things. he's come out with congressional term liemts, an ethics proposal. much of that has been overshadowed that he put out his wife melania trump out to defend him. >> that wasn't smart? >> it would have been smart to do it last week. this time it had the effect of extending the story for another 24 hours. by the way, melania trump is a great asset. of course people are going to sympathi sympathize. okay fine. but now melania has been drug into the back and forth, whether she did or did not meet natasha stoynoff months later on the street. i don't think that helps him with the voters. coming back, james o'keefe and some new takes.

>> starting anarchy. now some folks have lost their jobs. they've been fired. and the group is out with a new tape. james rosen joins us with the detail tonight from washington. james? >> good evening. two veteran democratic >> two veteran operatives out of their jobs thanks to a pair of videos released over the last 48 hours by project veritas action. robert creamer is head of democracy partners, a progressive consulting firm, also a former obama campaign consultant and a felon who served time for tax violation and bank fraud committed in '90s. he was caught on camera appearing to collude inau a plo to circumvent voter registration laws for hispanics. > let's say i have a busines inside illinois or michigan and i hired people and had addresses for them, i could write them checks for those -- i could use them as day laborers or whatever
9:51 pm
and use them and find my way around the voter registration laws forn hispanics. >> let me see if i can check the people who were most involved in hispanic voter registration. >> okay. >> and, uhm, and see what their thoughts are. there are a couple of different organizations that are -- >> a contract between one of creamer's firms and the democratic national committee was receive vered today with creamer saying none of the schemes described in the video tookok place. americans united for change, a progressive group announced the departure of field director scott foval, seen in the videos
9:52 pm
how he provoked fist fights, and his success in transporting out-of-state s voters to select states like indiana and minnesota. >> donations and campaign finance laws and investigation, and investigative arms. like they have weakened it so bad in these three states, you could have [ bleep ] and the governor and not [ inaudible ]. >> interim democratic national committee chair donna brazile called him azi convicted crimin. owe keefe pleaded guilty in 2010 to entering the offices of senator mary landreu under false pretenses, looking to record video there. thank you. with attorney david wohl who is trump supporter. david, let me start with you. you know, trump doesn't have the
9:53 pm
most finessed messaging, but he is not all wrong when he goes after this conspiracy against him inst some ways. >> yeah. >> this goes right to the heart of it, hiring mentally ill people to show up at trump rallies to pick fights, to make trump and his supporters look bad. >> and they weren't all mentally ill, megan. this is literally rent a thug. i have seen it firsthand. my daughter and i went to a rally in orange county and couldn't get out of the parking lot. >> you covered that, right? >> we covered it. it is extraordinary when you think about the fact this person is doing it yet he says what we've established this sort of double blind wall between us and the campaign so that hillary clinton will know nothing about it. so he'sit literally telling us that she doesn't go out, and that's her defenset to everything, e-mails, clinton foundation, she nos nothing about it, but the reality is would this man do this unless somebody didn't have his back? in other words is he going to
9:54 pm
risk his life and future to establish basically a conspiracy to injure people at trump rallies? but somebody has his back, and that's hillary clinton and that's the doj and the fbi. there's no question about it. >> austin, you tell me whether -- listen, if she knew about it, it is a new ball game. but you don't need to make that point. this is a democrat working -- first of all, why are they hiring a convicted felon to run this kind of an operation, you know, this supposed voter outreach? what a shock, you mean he committed legal violations in doing that. this guy out there blatantly breaking the law to try to make trump supporters look bad. that'ste on the democrats for wm this guy worked, is it not? >> somewhat, yes. i'm not going to defend the guy talking about illegal or unethical activities. i'm heartened as soon as they saw a low level guy nobody has heard of say a thing inappropriate they fired him.
9:55 pm
>> they saanks to james o'keefe they demonized a lot, but he caught a guy on camera doing bad things. >> with this as well as previous james o'keefe tapes, i assume since they fired this it wasn't an accurate representation, but he has been guilty of editing tapes that were not an appropriate. out.ey hired people to go when you hire someone to commit a crime, if there's ties established between the clinton campaign and this action, that needs to be investigated criminally by the doj but we know they won't because the doj has their back. crime after crime after crime has been committed. they're documented. i talked to a judge the other day in court, in chambers conference, and i tell you it is staggering nothing is done about this. >> david. great to see i you. austin, you as well. we will be right back. e road ag♪ [ rear alert sounds ] [ music stops ]
