the question that secretary clinton -- >> she was being very sarcastic. >> how did he lose the money?inf >> she's not the only one losing that question. >> the type that then carries forward the loss into years a where he did make a profit. >> how did you lose $1 billion is what i'm asking? that >> we don't know that.question but at the time you remember real estate in 1995 leveraged companies, but the fact is what did he do? esta in other words, the art of the comeback, and this nation can certainly use a comeback -- >> that's an equally good qually come back after losing $1 billion using the tax code as questioninvesting in new businesses. >> he certainly has you look around new york and other cities, particularly here, and doll you see the fruits of donald ci, trump's business acumen, what he did in carrying forward that loss, but the fact is e this-mile-an-hour has -- this man has paid hundreds of billions of dollars. federal taxes, excise taxes, ta, property taxes. ta >> you didn't say income taxes.

that he made a profit like anybody else, he paid income taxes. >> let me ask you this about the last presidential debate. profit we have a new cbs news poll out this morning that shows 36% of voters who watched the first debate said it made their opinion of mr. trump worse. what is he doing differently for sunday night and that debate, that second match-up? mr. >> i'm struck also by the number you have up there, norah, where half the people said it had no effect. that was pretty surprising given all the rah-rah f clinton since the debate. we're very happy about the town hall format. we know that's very beneficial to mr. trump. he's out there every day with mr. trump in a similar forum.ra you showed a clip of that where he engages with voters every day.f it's natural for him to do thate i hope he brings up obamacare ht because we have none other than president bill clinton being highly critical of obamacare, its failures. it's a terrible thing for small businesses. i no he that firsthand, it certainly is. there are so many ways to hold

her record and for i think she h has to defend both her record and any of the failings, the shortcomings of the obama administration. we have 16.4 women in poverty, 12.4 without health insurance. i think you'll see that for mikt pence. >> it's a big night for mike fr pence and tim kaine. >> it is. >> the majority of the public ds not know either one of them. what will mike pence do tonight to make sure people know his name by the time the debate is e over tonight be? >> he'll go out there in a fierk performance, someone known as low key. doing the job of the vice nce. presidential nominee which is to hold to account the other party's nominee and asking those questions about hillary clinton's fairly unremarkable record here in new york as llar united states senator.y the blemishes as secretary of state and really the wrong vision she has. nato >> when you say -- what do you >> whahen you say he's going to be fiery. >> people look at mike pence as? >> p low key. he is. he's a perfect gentleman. i've worked with him for years and years. at the same time, he's there ton

ars. these vice presidential nomineee are doing and what tim kaine has been doing on the stump almost exclusively, with i is to attract donald trump. i can't remember the last positive policy statement tim kaine has 4r5laid out. he's always talking about donald trump pe juror rativelily.end mike pence can lay out the caset >> kellyanne conway, thank you so much. >> thank you for having me. e >> we're going to talk to hillary clinton's campaign manager in our next right now face the nation moderator john dickerson joins us from washington. john, good morning. p >> good morning, norah. >> let's talk about tonight. the vice presidential debate. what are you waiting to see? >> well, mostly in these vice presidential debates it's sort of the hippocratic oath. vice first do no harm. it' kellyanne conway telegraphed there that mike pence is going to come out and press very hard. that will be interesting to see. it's not his nature. tele it's also tricky to do.

pre sustained attack. that will be interesting. one of the things for tim kained to watch for is that he when he was announced as the vice tim k presidential running mate gave a great sort of pitch for hillary clinton. he is going to go out there andr part of what these debates are about is building enthusiasm in your own party so it will be g t interesting to see him not only defend hillary clinton but then also to try to keep that enthusiasm momentum that she eep gained after her first debate within the democ the candidates disagree with heb their running mates?tes how do you think they will handle that tonight? >> well, that will be one of the things to watch for. they will probably do as they hy often do which is run over and answer some other question than one that asks them to account for their nominee. however, you can only do that so much. and if there is a glaring moment where they have to separate hae themselves from their nominee or just are unable to account for

that will be quite interesting to see. when you have candidates that ht have issues as both do, but b particularly obviously mike pence with donald trump, it's hard to kind of lapse into the i talking points fully. fully. you have to answer for what your candidates have done. >> john, what do you expect u donald trump and hillary clinton to try to do in the second o presidential debate?ond >> i think the same as the firse debate. donald trump has to show that h can handle the job of the presidency. job he has to show that he's prepared which is the thing to a do before the debate. do he has to show that he has somes source of restraint. hillary clinton, the advantage for her is that it's an audience and she does a lot of these audience events out on the stump. it's a little bit more natural for her. >> john dickerson. thank you so much. >> cbs news will bring you live coverage of tonight's vice presidential debate. elaine is the moderator. talks between the united

? good morning to our viewers in the west. it is tuesday, october 4th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." more real news ahead including a look at the presidential race with hillary clinton's campaign manager. and fi o the top five billionaires on the new forbes 400 list. but first, here's today's eye opener at 8:00. the hurricane is bearing down on southwest haiti with power the national hurricane center warns will be life threatening. >> potentially a category 3 hurricane just off shore, or hugging the east coast of florida. >> the vice presidential candidates will, of course, defend the records and rhetoric of their running mates.

past history shows he's the epitome of a system she calls rigs. >> mike pence and tim -- >> vice presidential debate, what are you waiting to see? >> mostly in the vice presidential debate, it is sort of the hippocratic oath. first, do no harm. >> what will mike pence do tonight to make sure people know his name? >> a fiery performance, especially for somebody known as low key. >> criticizing medicaid the government needs better regulation to prevent patient neglect and fraud cases. >> the relationship with president obama as an older brother, younger brother dynamic. the only downside is when obama forgets to pick him up from soccer practice. i get it. you're busy. >> this morning's eye opener at 8:00 is presented by liberty mutual insurance.

florida and the southeast are preparing for the dangerous hurricane now slamming the caribbean. matthew is a deadly category 4 hurricane. it just made landfall this morning in haiti. if the storm continues on its current path, matthew could hug the east coast or make a direct hit. north carolina and florida have already declared states of emergency. >> torrential rain and winds of up to 145 miles an hour are lashing haiti. roads have been flooded there and one man was killed when a wave crashed right through his home. in the dominican republic, the deluge dropped several inches of rain forcing cars to drive through floodwater. in cuba, people along the eastern coast have been urged to go to higher ground. >> donald trump is making no apologies for using the tax code to his benefit after claiming nearly a billion dollars in losses in 1995. trump said he, quote, brilliantly used those laws that could have allowed him to avoid

income taxes. speaking in pueblo, colorado, he blamed the recession in 1990 and '91 for his nearly $916 million business loss. >> the conditions facing real estate developers in that early '90 period were almost as bad as the great depression of 1929 and far worse than the great recession of 2008. some of the biggest and strongest people and companies went absolutely bankrupt. which i never are you proud of me? would have loved to have used that card, but i just didn't want to do it. >> now, take a look at the bureau of labor statistics. they say that the early '90s recession was milder than other downturns since world war ii. trump didn't declare bankruptcy in 1995, but four out of the six times his company filed bankruptcies were in 1991 and

>> donald trump says his administration would focus on mental health. he spoke yesterday in an event hosted by veterans who support his campaign. >> when you talk about the mental health problems, when people come back from war and combat and they see things that maybe a lot of the folks in this room have seen many times over and you're strong and you can handle it, but a lot of people can't handle it and they see horror stories, they see events that you couldn't see in a movie, nobody would believe it, we need a medical. >> vice president joe biden criticized trump saying he suggested that some troops are not as strong as those who don't have ptsd. >> he points out to the veterans room and says, and you're strong, you can handle it. but a lot of people can't handle it. where in the hell is he from? >> now retired general michael

comments were taken out of context by the media to deceive voters and veterans. donald trump's charity has been ordered to stop soliciting contributions in new york state. eric schneiderman said that the donald j. trump foundation is not properly registered. he is a democrat who supports hillary clinton. he also is investigating charges trump used the charity's funds for personal gain. trump's campaign says, quote, while we remain very concerned about the political motives behind attorney general schneiderman's investigation, the trump f intends to cooperate fully with the investigation. the latest cbs news poll shows rising enthusiasm from hillary clinton voters after the first debate. 46% are now very enthusiastic about voting. now, that's seven points higher than last month. >> 46% of donald trump's supporters were very enthusiastic as well. but that is down two points from last month. our poll shows that independent voters prefer donald trump over hillary clinton. 39 to 35%.

hillary clinton's campaign manager and joins us from richmond, virginia, getting ready for the big debate tonight. welcome. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> we're glad you're here. this is the first and only vp debate and when kellyanne conway was here last hour, she says we can expect a fiery debate from mike pence. what are tim kaine's marching orders tonight considering most people do not know who he is? how is he going to break through? >> what we're hoping is he has the opportunity to talk about the agenda he and clinton have, to make the biggest investment in jobs since world war ii, help families afford college and health care, and basically talk about the issues. that's when we always do best as a campaign. as you mentioned, i think the trump campaign is a bit panicked right now. they need to change the narrative, they need to change the message, they had a bad week. so we're expecting them to throw a lot of mud. and it is going to be very interesting to see how mike pence responds to questions about trump's behavior in the

attacked alicia machado, the former miss universe, is he going to defend the 3:00 a.m. twitter rants? is he going to defend donald trump's comments about veterans or he's proud he didn't pay taxes for nearly two decades. this is usually a test to see if the candidates are prepared to serve as president. i think both of them are regarded as pretty accomplished public servants. the real question is is mike pence going to defend donald >> is that the goal, to put mike pence on the defensive to defend donald trump's record? >> the goal is to talk about the difference that senator kaine and secretary clinton want to make in people's lives. that's been our goal for all of these debates. that's when we do best as a campaign, because secretary clinton and senator kaine actually have real plans that are going to make a real difference in people's lives. but i think the dynamics of the race are very special and it is going to be interesting to see if mike pence is willing to

>> how would secretary clinton, if she becomes president, change the affordable care act? because as you know, former president clinton had something to say about it yesterday in terms of people that were not exactly -- as well as they thought they might. >> well, i -- i'm sorry, i thought you were going to play a clip there. really glad you asked that question because -- >> i would if i had one. >> no, it is a really important issue that affects a lot of voters. look, the important thing is that 20 million americans have health insurance today because of the affordable care act. it made a tremendous difference in a lot of people's lives. but we need to do more to lower premiums and in particular the price of prescription drugs is rising way too fast. we have seen these companies, you know, abusing their patents to jack up costs for life saving cancer drugs and the like. so secretary clinton and senator

drug prices down, make sure families can afford them and finally do something about these premium increases. >> does secretary clinton agree with her husband, former president bill clinton, that obamacare is a, quote, crazy system that hurts small businesses? >> well, what he was referring to was the health care system both as it used to be, and then sometimes when happens in some of the markets, you know, where skews the cost, this is exactly why we got to do something about premium increases, but i assume also he was including in that prescription drug prices. >> can i ask you quickly about the latest polls. we see that secretary clinton is up in florida, north carolina, pennsylvania, virginia, but losing to donald trump in ohio. can she win the presidency without ohio? >> look, there are many paths to

absolutely essential for her to become president? no, it is not. but that's completely separate from the fact that we are working as hard as we can to win ohio. i ran secretary clinton's ohio campaign in 2008 and my parents live there. it is near and dear to my heart. i know we can win it and we're working very hard to do that. >> all right. 30 plus days and counting. thank you very much, robbie mook, we'll see you later on, i'm sure. cbs news will begin live coverage of the vice presidential debate at 6:00 pacific time. elaine moderating this evening. you can watch on cbsnews.com, on our app and on devices like roku, apple tv and amazon fire. lots of options. no excuse not to see this debate. >> that's right. it will be everywhere. good point, gayle. first on "cbs this morning," forbes reveals the new list of the richest americans. ahead, find out which big names dropped down a spot for first time in 15 years.
