10:00 am
resignations from his hispanic advisors after delivering that especially hard stance on immigration in arizona. donald trump in southwest ohio where moments ago he revved up a crowd with a talk about precisely how his immigration policies will protect jobs. >> another major part of our agenda is immigration security. we need to protect american jobs, security and safety. [ crowd chanting "build that wall" ] don't worry, we're going to build that walthal. that wall will go up. >> vice president joe biden was in ohio. he campaigned for hillary clinton telling nbc news why she's been off the campaign trail. he also said donald trump is the
10:01 am
last person you should believe on the topic of protecting people's jobs. >> a phrase he's made famous "you're fired." you ought to come from a household where some people were fired, where the plant closed down, where all of a sudden they're staring at the ceiling wondering how in god's name am i going to make it. >> all of this as a new poll from suffolk university shows clinton leading trump by seven points in a two-person race. our political team standing by on this thursday afternoon with some fresh new report iing. let's start with katy tur in wilmington, ohio. let's start with the resignations. what more can you tell us about possible folks stepping down? >> it's part of his national hispanic advisory council.
10:02 am
they're not necessarily trump staffers but they're trump advisor advisors trying to find a way for trump to create outreach with the hispanic community. he had a meeting with them a week and a half ago to discuss his rhetoric towards immigration and there seemed to be a softening coming out of that meeting, an idea there might be some path to legalization. since then, donald trump had gone back and forth on that idea but last night coming out the hard line immigration warrior that he had been during the primaries saying he would triple the number of ice officers and create a deportation force. well, this morning now some of those advisories are deciding to resign from that council. i believe you'll talk to one in a few minutes and he can tell you more about why but even another, alfonso aguilar saying he feels like he was basically duped and used on twitter last night when he was reacted to donald trump's speech.
10:03 am
>> katy, we heard donald trump last night there in arizona, hard line no doubt mass deportations once again, seems like that's on the table at least for now. then the this morning you had the republican nominee on laura ingr ingram's radio show insisting that he is, indeed, softening his position on some of these things. what do we know for certain about trump's immigration plan? at least where it stands at 1:03 on the east coast on thursday afternoon? >> the best indication we have right now, craig, is the speech he gave last night donald trump last week said he was softening and then he walked that back almost immediately after saying no, it's a hardening so to hear him come out and say he's softening his position is confusing. it's unclear if donald trump wants to be the hards line immigration warrior, someone for deportation forces, ending
10:04 am
sanctuary cities, making sure criminals get out of this country which, frankly, nobody argues with or is he trying to be the guy who wants to find a way to work with the undocumented immigrants in this country? remember, there are 11 million people here without papers as of now and that number could be higher. how is he going to get those people out of this country in a humane way? that's been the question on many people's minds now since donald trump announced the idea of a deportation force late last year so which donald trump? is he the one that will find a way to work with them and put aside the idea of the deportation forces or is he the candidate if he gets into office who will go in and decide on day one, day two, day three, that he's going to immediately triple the number of ice agents and go door to door trying to find those who are here without papers and forcefully removing
10:05 am
them. it's unclear. >> this is trump on laura ingram's radio show this morning. let's cue it up. >> the line last week you were softening on immigration then you come out with a very specific very pro-enforcement plan last night. where's the softening? >> oh, there's softening in a very humane way. we'll see it in a way with the people in the country, obviously i want to get the gang members out, the drug peddlers out, i want to get the drug dealers out. we got a lot of people in this country that you can't have and those people we'll get out and make a decision at a later date. i think you'll see there's quite a bit of softening. >> katy tur, wilmington, ohio. we'll leave it there. i want to talk to jacob monte,
10:06 am
until last night's speech he served on trump's national hispanic advisory council. mr. monte, thank you for your time. explain, first of all precisely why you decided to resign? >> well, there was so much anticipation building up to this speech. we had met with him a week and a half ago, he appeared to be ready to announce a pro-business compassionate republican solution to the immigration problem and boy we listened intently and we were hoping for some glimmer of the donald trump we met with a week and a half ago but it never came. and the group that met with him in new york, we're all about law enforcement. we want the wall, we want more security, we think immigrants should be vetted but we also told him that we wanted a way to
10:07 am
deal with the non-felons that are hardworking and contributing to our society that are doing the jobs no one else wants to do in america. we thought he heard us, he was taking notes, there was back and forth and he comes out with the speech that was essentially reciting the talking points from the fair and numbers usa and heritage foundation which are anti-growth anti-population think tanks that believe we have too many people here and it was very disappointing. there was nothing pro business in the speech last night. after i heard that, there was no way i could continue to be part of a prop apparatus for mr. trump so i resigned and it's a sad day because i am no fan of hillary clinton, i have serious doubts she really wants to solve the immigration problem.
10:08 am
i won't vote for her, but i certainly am not going to help donald trump. >> so for whom will you vote? >> well, that's a dilemma facing a lot of americans. we don't have a viable republican on -- on the gop slot. hillary clinton is not tenable to me and to millions of others so i am suggesting we leave that slot blank and focus on down-ballot viable republican candidates. that's what i'm going to do and i'm telling my friends to do as well. >> i want to play a piece of what you told msnbc last week about how trump got the country talking about immigration. here's what you said. >> i think he deserves kudos for having the country talk about immigration. we're closer now to immigration reform because donald trump has identified the security failures and he's gotten the right to discuss the fact that most of
10:09 am
these people are good and need to stay here, it's important our economy, the humane thing to do. >> why do you think trump got it when it came to immigration? >> after listening to the sean hannity town hall in austin, texas, i was so excited. i thought, boy, this is someone that can bring the hard-liners to the table, that can actually get an immigration bill through congress and there was so much hope. there was hope yesterday when he went to mexico. he looked like a president. he looked like somebody trying to solve the problem but for him to turn and just recite the talking points from fair and numbers usa, that was disappointing. >> jacob, what do you think happened between the conversation that you had with donald trump last week and the
10:10 am
speech we heard last night in phoenix, arizona? what do you think happened or do you know, what happeperhaps, wh happened? >> look, i don't know for sure. one thought is that he listens to whoever talks to him last. a week and a half ago hispanic leaders were talking to him, he listened to us. by the way, his polls went up after that. when he started talking reasonable, that's when his polls went up. i dare say his polls are going to take a big downturn after the truth gets out that there's nothing new there. so there's that possibility. the other possibility is that maybe he doesn't want to win. maybe this is a media play. and i feel serious about that. >> what do you mean he may not want to win. >> you can usually count on someone's self-preservation instincts. the idea that they want to win. not only is this the right thing to do but this is the only way he can win the white house. and that he didn't follow it suggests to me that maybe winning is not part of the game plan. maybe this is part of a media
10:11 am
play where he wants to create a media empire in will focus on the millions of nativists that believe the country needs to control immigration and if that's his play it will be good and he'll have millions of followers but he won't win the presidency. so those are the two possibilities i see. it's a sad day for america because our gop candidate is not a gop adherent. >> but jacob, in all honesty before last night i think a lot of folks suspected that, no? he was not a traditional gop candidate in a host of ways and now all of a sudden you sound surprised when, for the better part of the last year, you had a lot of folks saying precisely what you just said, that he can't be trust ed that you can' believe anything that comes out of his mouth, that he listens to the person who spoke to him last
10:12 am
and you seem stunned by. >> this i'm a soldier. i've always supported the republican person at the top of the ticket and i tried to look and see if there was maybe a real republican there. i didn't see it last night and boy i tried to look at something that spoke to me as a republican. there was nothing. it was just populist propaganda and i'm not going to be part of that. >> jacob monty, houston-based immigration attorney and up until 12, 15 hours ago he was on trump's national hispanic advisory council. mr. monty, thank you for your time, sir. >> thank you. >> good luck. as i mentioned a few moments ago, our own kasie hunt in ohio there if vice president joe biden's speech there in front of the auto workers, warren ohio is where we find her. i saw you on the rope line afterwards talking to the vice president. what did he have to say?
10:13 am
>> craig, this event was vintage joe biden. this is joe biden country, really. he talked about how this region is similar to where he grew up in scranton. he was talking to a lot of the people here as though he was friends of theirs. i mean, you know joe biden's campaign style, he referred to himself as the s.o.b. at the family picnic who insisted the country bail out the auto industry, etc. but he's here in ohio while hillary clinton is off the trail. she's been fund-raising quite a bit the last couple of weeks. she did do one speech in cincinnati yesterday to the american legion but otherwise we haven't seen very much of her. i asked him why that might be. hillary clinton obviously is not on the trail. you're here in ohio. do you think she needs to be out front with the american people a little bit more? >> she is out front with the american people. >> she's been fund-raising for a couple weeks. >> she has to. but she's also been doing a lot of events and i told her i'd campaign with her in scranton,
10:14 am
we got a whole bunch of places we're campaigning together and some places where maybe i can help and not have her have to be with me. >> do you think americans should be concerned at all about the ethics of the clinton foundation? has the clinton foundation been 100% ethical in your view? >> i think the clinton foundation, like all foundations, have found themselves in a position where things are changing and i think she's going to change, adjust to the realities of how complicated it's become. >> is she clearing herself up enough with that? should the foundation have stopped taking foreign donations now? >> i think you'll stop see them taking foreign donations. >> thank you very much, sir. >> there you have it talking about the clinton foundation hillary clinton hasn't made herself available to other reporters who travel with her to talk object those kinds of things, she has done a couple interviews since she's been back
10:15 am
and forth on the foundation issues. >> kasie hunt asking the question so many have of hillary clinton. being forced to ask those questions to her surrogate, the vice president of the united states joe biden. good work in ohio. thank you, let's get to mexico where two very different versions are being told about what donald trump's meeting with the mexican president looked like, nbc's jacob rascon is in mexico city. one minute he's making nice with mexico, then he's calling for a deportation force. what's been the reaction on the ground? that's question one. question two, what happened with building the wall? >> the word that comes to mind on the streets of mexico city is hypocrisy. they're not only talking about trump, they're talking about their own president, pena nieto.
10:16 am
we're talking about two different men, the men who showed up and shook hands and then the men who went to do different things, trump going to phoenix taking a hard line on immigration and the president coming out very strongly against a lot of the policies that trump has talked about saying i very clearly stated that there would be no payment for mexico for the wall. regarding what happened, we can only say there were different versions of the story. last night when asked about this the president's spokesperson told one of the local media and a couple of others apparently -- this is not confirmed by nbc -- that what pena nieto meant was that when the meeting started he said very clearly "we will not pay for the border wall." and that trump didn't respond so in essence there was no discussion about it so that technically, the spokesperson for the president said, trump wouldn't be lying to stay there was no discussion about it. meanwhile, on the streets, i've met one person out of dozens of
10:17 am
people we talk to who supports trump but all others have an opinion similar to this. take a listen. >> from my perspective, he's not a a worldly choice for a president not because of his opinion but because he's ignorant. some of his speeches like in which that he says obama was the founder of isis, later he retracted that and then he said it again, he doubled down on it and that was like ridiculous. >> we went on to talk about this? spanish and he told me of how his comments on mexico, trump's comments on mexico and his policies don't bother him as much as what he thinks is his inability and character flaws and other reasons that he can not be president. he was just astounded, he said, at the way trump handled himself and he listed off a number of
10:18 am
different things that happened. we've heard that opinion a couple of times but generally there's confusion, shock, sadness about this character, far off, who says these things about mexico who actually stepped foot here in their city, in their country. craig? >> jacob rascon for us this afternoon in mexico city, jacob, thank you. a foreign policy advisor to the clinton campaign sharing his thoughts on that meeting with mexico's president. we'll also spend some time talking about what joe biden just said about hillary clinton. first, though, today's microsoft pulse question. here it is. "trump met mexican president pena nieto but a dispute still remains over who will pay for trump's proposed wall. did trump fail his first diplomatic test?" that's the question, the pulse is live. pulse.msnbc.com. the launch window. we have to be very precise. if we're not ready when the planets are perfectly aligned, that's it. we need really tight temperature controls. engineering, aerodynamics-

10:21 am
10:22 am
my biggest problem with donald trump, i'll tell you about in the a minute, is not his cockamamie policies, it's the way he treats people. vice president joe biden a short time ago on the campaign trail for hillary clinton hammering donald trump today. bill clinton having to spend time responding to this damaging new report over their use of public money and their found place. the article in politico says former president bill clinton used tax dollars to subsidize the foundation as well as support for hillary clinton's private e-mail server. it also goes on to say that the program paid salaries and benefits to clinton aides. nicholas burns is a former ambassador to nato, he has served in various capacities under presidents reagan, clinton, both bushes, he is also a foreign policy advisor for the
10:23 am
hillary clinton campaign. mr. ambassador, thank you for your time, sir. >> thank you. >> let's start off with this new report. politico says that what the clintons did was legal. bill clinton pushing back. wouldn't a news conference by hillary clinton be the best way to help clear this up? 271 days now since she's held one. donald trump held one with a foreign leader roughly this time yesterday south of the border. >> that wasn't really a news conference with the president of mexico and donald trump yesterday. i just say this, i have not seen a political story. i think the clinton foundation has done a world of good since it was started many years ago and i've seen that both in the united states and overseas and people ought to focus on that as well but i know that secretary clinton has answered a lot of questions from reporters, has made herself available, perhaps not in full news conferences -- >> mr. ambassador, with all due respect -- >> but with journalists.
10:24 am
>> i have to take issue with that. we have a number of reporters assigned to cover the secretary and we have heard from a number of them that she is not terribly accessible. say what you may about donald trump's politics, there's a microphone in front of him, he's willing to take a few questions from reporters. why won't she do that? >> what really matters in this campaign is ideas and policies that will move this country forward and i think that secretary clinton is winning that debate. so trump yesterday, for instance -- i thought that's what we were going to talk about -- went to mexico and didn't even have the guts to raise his signature issue with the mexican president. donald trump has been saying for a full year now that he's going to build a wall at the mexican border and convince the mexican government to pay for it, he didn't even raise the issue of whether or not mexico would pay for it, then went to phoenix, was a completely different american his bullying speech where he launched broad sides against immigrants so i think
10:25 am
the issues are what matters and that's why i'm supporting hillary clinton. >> let's talk about the meeting with mexico's president talking about immigration. he was able to use that meeting today. this is a snippet of what donald trump said. >> i had a great meeting yesterday with the president of mexico, where we both expressed our shared desire -- and it is a shared desire -- to secure the border, put the cartels out of business, and to keep jobs in our hemisphere. >> when people attack you on immigration, it's a nice thing to be able to say, "hey, i met with mexico's president, hillary clinton hasn't met with mexico's president." does that give him some cover for those kinds of attacks? >> i don't think so. because he doesn't appear to have listened to what happened in his own meeting.
10:26 am
trump said there was no discussion about whether or not mexico would pay for the wall. the mexican president made a statement that there was such a discussion so in diplomacy i think success or failure will be judged on whether you've achieved clarity in your conversations. does the other side even have a good sense of what you're talking about? i think trump failed his first diplomatic test because here we are with arguably one of the two or three most important countries in the world to the united states and we have a difference of view the day after this meeting between the president of mexico and donald trump, that's failure on his part, not surprising given the fact that he's so little prepared for these engagements and not surprising given what he's said about the mexican people consistently over the last 12 to 14 month which is has been objectionable, of course. >> mr. ambassador, hillary clinton has been doing a loath of fund-raiser this is week. we heard the vice president acknowledge as much. before her appearance at the american legion yesterday in ohio, she's been off the
10:27 am
campaign trail since last thursday in nevada. why is that? why is she not on the campaign trail more? this is this perhaps a calculated move by the campaign to allow her opponent to hog up the airwaves and let him implode. >> i guess i disagree with the premise of your question. this campaign has been under way for a long time and secretary clinton has been on the road meeting americans in all sorts of venues for well over the past year and a half and it's been a punishing schedule, six and seven days a week and so i disagree with you and she's made herself available to all sorts of audiences. if you listen to the speech -- i know your network covered it yet -- that she gave, it was about american strength and leadership and american exceptionalism so i think in this campaign as i see it, there's no misunderstanding about what hillary clinton believes. she has put out detailed position papers. she has a very detailed weapon
10:28 am
si -- web site. she has made speeches on substantive issues and has tried to engage on issues and donald trump is running a campaign of slogans and i thought yesterday trump revealed how empty his campaign is. it's slogans not backed up by sincere actions so to me there's a great gulf in seriousness between these two candidates. >> nicholas burns, former ambassador to nato. thank you for your time. >> thank you very much. donald trump delivering his speech at the epicenter of the immigration divide last night. up next, a democratic congresswoman from arizona responding to trump's controversial immigration plans. man: dear mr. danoff, my wife and i are now participating in your mutual fund. we invested in your fund to help us pay for a college education for our son. we've enclosed a picture of our son so that you can get a sense there are real people out here trusting you with their hard-earned money. ♪ at fidelity, we don't just manage money,

10:40 am
party, maybe he wants to create a media empire a la roger ailes. this was what monty said, what you've i'm sure heard from others. what say you to that theory? i saw that interview, it was quite a remarkable assertion. it's hard for me to believe that donald trump would go through all the trouble of winning the republican nomination -- and he has -- if the end game was not to be president of the united states. i don't think he's interested in a third party. he doesn't really fit the philosophical profile for someone who wants to fill a third party. remember this is someone who switched parties seven times. he doesn't really have a grounding ideological set of core believes and that's why he's sort of all over the place, it's all about political expediency. but the media empire is interesting. although if he wanted to do that, just go and do that. why would she to run for president and win the republican nomination? if, in fact, he does do that, i think he'll lose the entire republican party as a base of support because what -- he would
10:41 am
have effectively thrown away the election, given it to hillary clinton all in pursuit of a media business. >> let's talk about the tale of two trumps we saw play out yesterday in two different countries. the statesman like trump that we saw in the news conference with mexico's president and then the fiery donald trump that a lot of the supporters have come to know and love and that hard-line speech in phoenix last night. why haven't we heard republican leaders react publicly to either of the two trumps? >> because we don't know which trump we're going get, as you indicated. he sort of caught a break, right? he was invited by the president of mexico, he goes there, he has this wonderful political backdrop, right? because it looks very presidential. i'll remind you of a couple things that happened during the -- his so-called press conference that hadn't been noted. one is if you look, pena nieto doesn't welcome trump. he doesn't say how wonderful it

is for him to be here and welcome to our country. he heard none of that. it looked like he didn't want him to be there. two, he very diplomatically lectured trump on several fronts, including nafta. one is that nafta has been good for the united states and good for mexico for sure. it's a net jobs gainer in mike pence's home state of indiana so there's a lot of good things about nafta and nafta, remember, donald trump talked about throwing away, getting rid of all together. and there seemed to be a softening there not only on tra trade. the president lectured him on civility. where donald trump's thinking and public utter rance is win-lose. in this casino style -- if you win somebody else has to lose. then donald trump's evil twin shows up in arizona and gives this really hard line speech on immigration. now, the problem with that diplomatically is, look, our
10:43 am
friends and allies and even our enemies don't have to agree with our policies but they have to have predictability in our foreign policy. unlike military strategy. so pena would have seen one thing in mexico and a few hours later saw this completely different tone in arizona which must have left him just utterly befuddled. msnbc contributor rick tyler, former ted cruz campaign spokesman. good to see you, rick, thank you. >> thanks, craig. hunkering down for a possible hurricane. millions of floridians bracing for what could be the first her ca -- hurricane to hit the sunshine state in more than a decade.

i'm claudine and i quit smoking with chantix. by the time i was 30, i said "that's it, i'm a smoker for life." i wanted to be a non-smoker and i did it thanks to chantix. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced my urge to smoke
10:46 am
some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. some had seizures while taking chantix. if you have any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse or of seizures. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you have these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms decrease alcol usek or s. while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. most common side effect is nausea. this is for real. i'm a non-smoker. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. >> anyone who has eed the united states illegally is subject to deportation. that is what it means to have
10:47 am
laws and to have a country. >> trump's fiery speech on immigration causing some latino surrogates and advisors to pull their support. i'm joined by the editor ff latino coverage and a political reporter at buzzfeed news. adrian, thank you so much. we heard from one of these latino advisors who said that after the speech he's decided there had's no way he can continue to back donald trump. have you heard from others? >> thanks for having me, craig. i broke the story 11 days ago when jacob monty was part of the hispanic advisory council for donald trump among, with others, and when i spoke with him at the time and they had in that private meeting said that donald trump was talking about a humane way of possibly keeping undocumented immigrants here, which would have been a huge difference from what he had been saying, you know, jacob monty told me he doesn't have to pander to us, we already support him. and here he is, you know, days later he has rescinded his
10:48 am
support of donald trump because in that speech yesterday donald trump came out with a very hard-line approach, he really made a 360 back to where he started and he wants undocumented immigrants out and he's going to focus on criminal aliens, as he calls them. that's the situation where the campaign deemed as surrogates that they trust who don't support him anymore. >> what happens to trump's campaign if he loses the conservative latino vote? >> you talk about places like florida where, you know, while president obama may have won the cuban vote by a little bit in florida, florida is a place where cuban republicans, hispanic republicans, can keep the state closer, can keep that latino vote percentage that -- the difference a little bit down whereas in some other places that are maybe more mexican american, you know, those will be easier for the democrat, easier for hillary clinton to win. so, you know, the situation
10:49 am
becomes that republicans had to turn back the trend of latino support going to democrats. obama got 71% in 2012 and, you know, romney in 2012 was criticized for maybe self-dm self-deportation comments hurting him with latinos trump has gone so far beyond that, that the idea that he's going to get hispanic republican support with the comments yesterday is tough to believe. >> what do you think happened? we heard from jacob monty earlier who mentioned the meeting they had last week, closed door meeting. he said donald trump appeared to be listening, taking notes. we also heard from donald trump himself at that fox town hall say he had been having these conversations and it seemed as if he might be having a change of heart and then the speech last night. what do you surmise happened between the meeting last week and the speech last night? >> that's exactly right.
10:50 am
kellyanne conway, his campaign manager, she talked about possibly trump softening. i think what happened here is there was an 11-day trial balloon where they said, "hey, you know what? maybe he wants to be more the immigration issue. humane previously they were talking about humanely deporting everyone. now they are saying well, is there a way people could stay and kind of talking about that. so i think that it's very clear that the pushback he got both from basically on the right, a lot of folks, saying, wait. in the middle of her book tour saying what happened. that's what i think happened. >> the base got to him. thank you. let's take a last look at the pulse question. trump meeting with president enrique pena nieto yesterday. a dispute remains over who will pay for the wall. did trump fail his first diplomatic test? here are the questions. 76% say yes. the pulse is still live.
