see the blue counties that are the metro areas. and that's donald trump america. blue america is hillary clinton. maybe the political effect ends up being the wash. that was the most important number of the day. mtp daily starts right now. >> if it's wednesday, breaking news on the presidential candidate health front. >> medical history day. hillary clinton is releasing her medical records, donald trump talks about his health with dr. oz. how the trump foundation is highlighting why the country needs to see trump's tax returns now. >> more facts and accusations are emerging and being levelled. >> new details from the e-mail hack.
2:01 pm
what he thinks about donald trump, hillary clinton and a lot more. >> what are hillary said about talking to secretary powell about it. >> this is mtpda daily and it starts right now. good evening and welcome. let's get to the breaking news at this hour. moments ago we received a summary of medical records and a new letter of her doctor. it describes friday's diagnosis as a mild and noncontagious bacterial pneumonia and tweeted and advised to take ten days to recover. she saw her usual physician as recently as today. this document comes hours after donald trump unexpectedly shared his medical information during a taping of the tv talk show, dr. oz that will air on thursday. we noted that on this show, they
2:02 pm
both had released letters from doctors. clinton's was a serious letter and trump's less so. it has been little medical information compared to the 1700 pages when president obama ran for president. donald trump would be the oldest and hillary clinton would be the second oldest first term president. apparently one person already has it. >> medical records. why not? >> i have no problem in doing it. i have it here. should i do it? i don't care. should i? >> the doctor who conducted the exam was the same behind that one-page astonishingly excellent letter the reports from audience members. dr. oz decided he is in good
2:03 pm
health, but this is not how they wanted the information released. trump's manager said about hours before the dr. oz taping. >> he is going to go on dr. oz today, but he is not going to release the results of his physical. why is that? >> on a tv show? i don't think he should. >> that was the plan? >> he was going to talk about the fact that he had a physical and what the results are or what the doctor may have told him. he will release it this week when he gets the results. >> so there you go. after a pretty successful run for kelly ann conaway. clearly with the medical to do it on dr. oz, she lost this battle we are not sure that the medical release was part of their plan today either. they may have seen an opportunity from reality show spectacle of dr. oz. the television doctor was
2:04 pm
grilled by the consumer protection panel. joining me now is going through john torres. an nbc medical contributor. gave us your assessment. >> i think you hit the nail on the head. we haven't seen a complete picture. you can't put it together completely. she has been treated for that and continues to be on medicine for that. she had that she had the pneumonia and it's on the right side. it was a small noncontagious pneumonia and on a medicine that is a typical treatment for pneumonia. she got the pneumonia vaccine and she is in excellent mental health, that is the first time
2:05 pm
we addressed the mental health aspect. a few things we have known before. this is one piece of the puzzle. there is more information out there. >> we have a pretty complete picture of her medical history without being invasive. >> we don't want to be overly invasive and we don't need to know things that will not impact her. the fact that they have the three blood clotting issues. not that i think this is happening to her or having ideas, but there are a couple of protein c and s deficiencies that lead people to develop the blood clots. she had issues of dehydration and is there a connection? these are the things that i as a physician would want to know and possibly voters would as well. >> what are tests or what would
2:06 pm
you want to see them release? what kind of report would you want to see from her doctor? >> these are simple blood tests that tell us whether they have deficiencies or could make her more likely to have blood clots. she is on couple din and that could cause other issues. she had the vaccination and had the shingles vaccination. i'm thinking as a doctor. we don't want her to get shingles in office. it could be painful and debilitating. we are not getting the complete picture. >> do you feel comfortable with what you have seen and heard? we only have audience member distributions. >> i think we don't have that information and they have cancer
2:07 pm
history and issues with that. screening exams in the past. the review of systems is equivalent and i tell people all the time. when you check the boxes saying i'm okay here and never had that and never had that, the doctor's job said let's go over it and see if there is anything you might have forgotten about. >> dr. john torres, thanks for your help on this. we are not doctors. you are and you get to play on tv. he was an adviser to john saysic and susan page and democratic
2:08 pm
pollster. let me start with you. it's remarkable how little we know. this was more thorough from hillary clinton. do you think that helps her at all? >> it makes her look more forth coming and traditional than going on a show and asking the studio audience if you should release this information. >> some things are so trumpian. of course he did that. >> that said, will people believe her. i wonder if she will face more pressure for the details even though she has provided more than donald trump provided. >> before your adviser a long time adviser to john mccain. he chose the other method and everybody knows i have a long medical history. here it is. why do you think we can't get that kind of transparency? >> there is an instinct for some
2:09 pm
degree of privacy even if you are running for president. in mccain's case, he errs on the side of transparency. he had been tortured for years and he had a bout with cancer. he said look, i will put it out and let the reporters go in and look at it. of course doctors said he is competent to serve as president. he is still running around strongly. >> he got a lot of credit for transparency. >> there was stuff that was kind of embarrassing. it's all or nothing. >> health problems, but americans are sophisticated enough to say the president may not be completely healthy in every possible way, but are they up to the job and make that kind of judgment. >> they especially want to know if someone aging. i worked for ronald reagan who would be 70 and that sounded old 36 years ago. he had to put a lot of health
2:10 pm
records out. >> we're will agree 60 is the new 50 and 50 is the new 40. >> as a dreemocrat, you hope th is enough for voters. as badly as the weekend was, could there have been more and will they be more thorough? >> i think the one thing about this issue is she can prove that she is healthy by campaigning every day. watl be the proof in the pudding. it's clear the trump campaign people did not want him to do this. they were trying to serious this up a little bit. the first time she lost one, it looks like. >> it may be, but dr. oz for the
2:11 pm
white house physician sounds like a good choice. it's not a huge deal how he does it. the good news is donald is healthy and we think mrs. clinton is and hope she is and i agree with them. when they get in the debate stage, they stand there for 90 minutes and with stand the pressure and the questions. people are going to quit worrying about their health. >> donald trump's love for fast food? >> he admitted he can lose 15 or 2o pounds, but he can do that later. >> new questions about donald trump's business dealings and put foundation for more pressure on the candidate to release his tax returns. later, a former secretary of state's e-mail leak, not hillary clinton's. what we are learning about colin powell's outbox. what it says about the online security. stay tuned. ♪

some fresh polls out in the battle ground and national numbers showing hillary clinton ahead 48% to donald trump's 43%. that narrows in the poll since august. clinton was up 51% to 41%. johnson at 13% and 4% backing the green party's jill stein. now to swing states and this is where there has been eyebrow raisers. too close to call and the momentum is in trump territory. trump at 44% and stein is not on the ballot in nevada. turning to cnn that have trump leading in ohio. trump is up 46 to clinton's 41%. in florida, among likely voter, trump at 47% to hillary clinton
2:15 pm
44%. by the way, johnson just did 6% and stein at 1%. we will have more after this. 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- a split second too long could mean scrapping it all and starting over. propulsion, structural analysis- maple bourbon caramel. that's what we're working on right now. from design through production, siemens technology helps manufacturers meet critical deadlines. i think this'll be our biggest flavor yet. when you only have one shot, you need a whole lot of ingenuity. ♪ americans are buying more and more of everything online. and so many businesses rely on the united states postal service to get it there. because when you ship with us, your business becomes our business. that's why we make more ecommerce deliveries to homes
2:16 pm
than anyone else in the country. the united states postal service. priority: you only 55 days left until election day. will we ever see donald trump's tax returns? there is pressure that is mounting. we investigated the international business deals that could put a cloud over some of his national security decisions. the story places trump in business with powerful people and places like india, south korea, turkey, russia, ukraine and libya. lays out deep ties to global financeurs and some with a criminal background and none was revealed in the financial disclosure. then a post series that digs in through the trump foundation. they found he has not
2:17 pm
contributed his on own money since 2008 and uses other people's money including a gift that came from nbc universal of a $500,000 back during the apprentice days. this kind of investigative reporting would be easier if we saw his tax returns. you could finally see his charitable giving and perhaps his debts to any foreign banks or governments until we see them. every decision that could be made would have a cloud hanging over it. we the press and the american people know the whole story. trump's daughter was asked about potential conflicts of interest today on "good morning america." >> my father already said that he would put the company into a blind trust and it would be run by us. he has been articulate on that fact and outspoken.
2:18 pm
>> as we laid out last week, a blind trust is not that blind and doesn't cut it. there is no way to put entities you know about in a blind trust. you can't unsee that. just remember all of this is legal. there is not any law that requires the president or the vice president to resolve any potential conflicts of interest. if trump had been made a cabinet secretary instead, it would be a different story. there are strict guidelines in place for members. the rules by the way would not apply to trump, but also to his children. if trump were a cabinet secretary, his children would not be allowed to run the company as ivanka outlined. while checks and balances are meant as a fail for presidents and vps, the lack of tax returns mean we don't know what we are dealing with. since it is not required, we can keep applying pressure and see
2:19 pm
what trump decides to disclose. david has been leading the investigation into trump's charitable giving and he had the lack of conflict of interest laws that govern on this show. let me start with you. what is it if you had his tax return and had been tracking charity by charity and gone through this with a fine tooth comb, if you had the return, how much time would this have saved and you what questions would you finally be able to get answered? >> the basic one is what he gaves gav gives to charity and the proceeds of books and shows and all sorts of things. finding the evidence that that is true. we would know what he gives to charity out of his own pocket.
2:20 pm
>> and what else when you have gone through this today and i know that you found a few more that the money came from, he is using other people's money. this is perfectly legal, correct? >> it is as far as i found. that part of it is legal. there is a thing called the donald j trump foundation, but ten years ago, he let the money drain out and he rebuilt it with other people's money. he hasn't given it any money and people are under the impression that it's trump's money. that part is legal, but it's unusual. most rich people that feel a responsible for wealth to the good of the world don't do that. >> we discuss the differences between what's on a personal disclosure and what you learn on a tax return. in light of the story that lays out the different financial interests he has in different parts of the world including
2:21 pm
important hot spots like turkey and india and russia in particular, what would you want to see to clarify the information that would resolve a conflict of interest. >> for he had several years of a tax return and even a couple, we could see what companies he was dealing with and where there were deductions for expenses and possible diffident income and capital gains and things that go on tax returns that relate to your liability for taxes. the dealings he has with foreign companies whether they are in turkey or russia or whether they are in korea, it might well be reflected on the tax returns and be invaluable in filling out the ticket. none of it is on the disclosure
2:22 pm
statement as i understand it. >> going into that, do you get a sense on the tax return we would find out all the different companies that he owns or controls or has an interest in? how much of that is on the personal financial disclosure and how much it not? are others in the tax returns? >> there could be. the statement on the liability side with the king of debt and he has all the debts. we are only seeing personal liability. these are very complicated returns. the trump organization is sort of a misnomer and made up of 500 different companies. we may well see deductions and payments regarding entities that don't even appear on the personal financial statement because they relate to tax liability and not specifically a personal debt in his name.
2:23 pm
>> let me go back to the foundation. when you go to the issue of some of these donations including the that is under investigation and he got fined on. what are the rules that govern -- no foundation is supposed to be able to give any political contribution. no charitable contribution. >> when trump's foundation gave the donation to a group affiliated with the florida attorney general, that was a violation of the law and after we report on that that he paid the penalty tax to the irs. >> the investigation that is being opened up, why does it matter if it opens in new york? is that where trump university is and where it should be? why shouldn't this open up in florida? >> it's important to know that this is focused on the trump foundation part and not on pam bond i. having taken that this donation
2:24 pm
when her office was considering a case against trump university. this is a regulator of charities in new york. it looks not only at the donation and using the money earmarked for charity to buy things for himself. >> you seemed to uncover that and the penalty would be tax violations or something more >> nobody is going to go to jail, but there is things like we broke news on this today. he bought a 6-foot tall portrait of himself with charity money. if you use charity money to buy things for yourself and not telling people. the penalty is $100 a day and $50,000 a year. we are talking about 2007 to now. the irs chooses to go that route
2:25 pm
and go after trump for filing a false tax return, that's a lot of money. >> say we see the tax returns, there are 500 other entities. there will be information we still don't have. you want to see the returns of the llcs, correct? >> that's right. looking at his tax return is not going to be the end-all to be all. it will fill in a piece of the puzzle and help but we need to go beyond that. he doesn't have a political record. it's a business record. i don't know how we can make a judgment without seeing these records. >> the person who helped set up michael bloomberg's trust. still ahead, the economy boomed, but not everyone benefitted.

>> welcome back. after years of stagnant wages, we got signs of a real economic recovery from a new report. last year median income went up to $56,000, a 5.2 increase, the fastest yearly growth on record. 3.5 million fewer people living below the property line. they are not fully better, but it is better. the recovery though also has been uneven. it falls right into our political divide. the big cities are seeing real wage growth and rural america is not. inside the med politan areas, they went to almost $60,000 in
2:35 pm
2015. a 6% increase. outside there was no such growth. income was flat or slightly down. the data that came from the sample showed median income dropped to roughly $44,000 in 2015. an actual decrease. when wisdom was being turned on its head, those who feel left behind top the see a change in leadership at the top and that's what we are seeing with donald trump reporters in 2016. soon to be fellow, thank you, sir. >> thank you. >> let's go through this. what was amazing here is the upbeat reporter overall and you dug in and said whoa, look at this. it went down in parts of america. you thought this is the trump and clinton divide.
2:36 pm
>> the numbers first came through, i was sitting here yesterday. i bet this is being driven by a small selection of counties in america. it's not quite that small. it was a very broad based bump. we are really talking about these counties. they are about one third of all of the countries. >> it's very high. in this other third of counties, wages were flat. the numbers show overall they were down, it was a small sample and we can say for certain they were not up. this is a real big difference in the country. >> the democrats are saying this economy is recovering and we are getting better and turned a corner and democrats believe that. donald trump's message is you have been left behind and look at this. if you look at the urban and rural split from early august, you see the divide. in urban america, hillary
2:37 pm
clinton led by 35. in rural trump led by 19. >> the urban and rural divide is something we see a lot. we talked about this. there is really where is the opportunity in america? where are the jobs? it's an urban place. urban pliss are the drivers of the economy and connected globally and places where you have the opportunity to get somewhere. >> let's lay this over the battle ground. let's get the state by state data. i look at the numbers and that means this must mean this is going to be harder for donald trump in virginia, but explains why he is so high in iowa or nevada. >> they are excellent examples of this. you have a lot of rural areas in people there in arizona. i think in ohio when you get to the rural areas of ohio. the state polls, they are the wide differences between what's happening in the suburbs in columbus and what you see in the
2:38 pm
rural places. the numbers comparing the numbers now to the 2012 results look different. there is a shift going on and it's moving. >> the thing that is moving is a case where people say pocket book issues without the decisions. the improved economy has pushed them towards the democrats. >> it has. other things as well. social issues and when you look at the urban places, they have higher incumbents. high are incomes and education levels and a candidate saying you know what, everything is horrible and i will change everything. >> in urban america it's going well. >> the last thing they want is to upset the apple card. >> donald trump is saying nothing has changed for me. my is not as good and my kid's lives are not as good. >> go out and talk to the

trump. and confirming the hack, he said whoever is behind the breech has a lot more. another e-mail written back in may shows the frustration for connecting him to trouble. i told hillary's minions repeatedly that they are making a mistake trying to drag me in. they still try. and powell wrote in another e-mail that the adviser was fired because he was abusive with staff and didn't listen and worked against policy and was a right wing nutty. it's time for the panelists. so charlie, none of us want to see our e-mails out there.

2:48 pm
is conceivable. he decided trump professionally can't handle it. >> hooey is a-person focus group. absolutely. he is just going through the angst of it. >> the one person that gets no criticism was barack obama. he was also very harsh on the birther movement saying it was purely racism. pretty tough comment. >> here supported president obama. i think he has become a friend of his. i'm not surprised at all that he didn't criticize him. >> does powell have impact? >> he does because he didn't call a news conference. he did it in private to friends with no expectations. we presume this is what he really thinks.
2:49 pm
he is a guy who served at the highest levels of three republican administrations and that's another reason why it has the potential to be damaging. >> not commenting on the president. the president is getting a second or third honeymoon with the public. >> again, the overton window and nothing like having the two candidates. the more they don't like them, the more people seem to like obama. >> that helps her. the more people like obama, the more it helps her. they are in the same party and that's helpful, but he is going to be out there next month. >> this bailed out bush in 88. reagan is wrapping his arm around him and going up like obama. >> it helps, but the really good economy and not the mixed economy allowed bush to run for a third term. that was successful also because the democrats nominated a weak candidate. it took us a while to prove, but he was a weak candidate. >> let's go to the polls.
2:50 pm
last week was the end of the clinton bounce for sure. it was her losing. it was sitting in johnson now. trump is picking up. she is taking on water. >> so you should look at the trend. not the numbers. that's certainly true. and it means, what if he has a great debate? there's been an expectation. i think both parties that he couldn't possibly win. he is now so clearly within striking distance with this one thread the needle path. if he has a chance, could he win? it shows for the most part, other than dr. oz, he has been acting like a traditional candidate. i'm not saying that on a

pejorative sense. he was campaigning in flint, michigan today and did he more of a small thing. sort of a voter event which he doesn't usually do. he had a line here that some people will love and some people are going to shake their head at. here it is. >> it used to be, cars were made in flint and you couldn't drink the water in mexico. now, the cars are made in mexico and you cannot drink the water in flint. that's not good. >> you winced when i read you the quote. >> i usually wince when he talks about mexico because i don't think it help our country or the republican party. but that is what got him where he is. >> he was reading it. he meant to say that. he think he wrote it down or somebody else wrote it out and

thought it would be a kind of clever line. and i think it is untrumpian in that way. usually he is pretty spontaneous. i like what they were saying for the last couple weeks. they're finding out that less donald trump is more. >> and no twitter. >> the most unbelievable thing over the last two days. number one. he had no response to the e-mails. the old donald trump, today our story would have been trump versus powell. all the tweets. and then didn't respond to the plouffe jokes. so kellyanne jumps in front of the twitter feed. >> i was going to say, i guess his kids took his electronic devices away from him. i think it is debate prep.

>> i think he has decided he really wants this job and he will try conduct himself in such a way to get it. >> we're watching all these polls. it feels like noise before the first debate. it feel like there is one development that has taken place in this clinton erosion and trump rise. it has shifted the battle for the senate. there is no doubt now the senate is a coin flip or maybe even now, i don't want to say slight, maybe slightly leaning republican. indiana? indiana is closer. so now, it is democrats have to thread the need tol get control of the senate which we thought was all but a given. >> how concerned are you that the path is, you have to sort of run the table on everything and by the way, hold nevada, too. >> well, run the table on everything on september 14.

i think to me what the last four or five days have shown, how things shift so much. and look, i think, i still believe that she is going to be elected president. i think the path may have gotten a little easier but he has to do a lot of things right to get there. in terms of the senate. i think as a strategist, he is working on it. it is really hard to tell right now mid semi. >> do you think voters have gotten the message about submit ticketing? >> they've always had that message. fred is right. it is early. this is a very volatile electorate this time. i always thought if trump just ran close, we would deep senate. i now believe he has a good chance to win and keep the senate. verything online. and so many businesses rely on the united states postal service
