was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. i just snapped a photo and got an estimate in 24 hours. my insuranceompany definitely doesn't have that... you can leave worrbehind when liberty stands with you™ yliberty mutualnsuranced when in the fall of 2007. the gods of fate and chance and gambling in las vegas decided that it was time for the frontier casino to come down. because it was las vegas and americans love to see things blow up, they decided to do it right. it slated for demolition, but they built basically a fireworks display, like flares on to the center of the building. rather than just saying four, three, two. they had the lights count down. then they had a big tnt plunger. you didn't just hear them

announce they were going to blow it up, you could see it acted out on lights in the front of the building as they were destroying the building. just in case the explosion alone was not entertaining enough for you, they put extra explosions on the thing they were exploding. >> three. >> two, one. and then comes the tnt. yeah, this is like the most american explosion in the history of america. this is like meat with meat sauce. that is how they took down the frontier casino in las vegas, nevada, in november 2007. americans like to see things blow up. sometimes it goes great. sometimes an incredible over the top spectacle like that. sometimes it goes poorly. like when they blew up the kingdome in seattle and they forgot to account for all the dust that would cover all the people and then the dust covered up the downtown for hours.

it doesn't always go great. but when they blow things up on purpose in this country, it almost never goes the way it went today in downtown little rock arkansas with this bridge. this is broadway bridge over the arkansas river. it's a bridge that is old. it's being replaced. yea for infrastructure. but today was a day when they actually needed to get rid of this old second of the bridge in order to make room to bring in its replacement. and blowing up the old bridge over the arkansas river, that kind of thing is exciting to watch, right? people took time off from work to go watch this happen today. local tv stations have been hyping this for days. just amateurs the and explosion watchers but local tv shows and everybody had their cameras set up. tons of reporters on the scene to record the big moment when they're going to blow up the bridge and fall into the arkansas river. and again, things sometimes do

go wrong when we blow stuff up on purpose in this country. but things almost never go wrong precisely like this. we just heard the first horn which we were told that would be about five minutes out from the implosion, the excitement is building here in anticipation, marcy, of this part of the bridge coming down. back to you. and to continue checking in with shannon. i don't know about the folks in the doubletree. if you're just now joining us, it was supposed to happen about 10:00, but these things take a little time. we're at 10:02 now. we're going to stick with it to see if -- wow.

so apparently that sound, that horn was actually a two-minute alert that shannon heard there. >> so what's wrong with this picture, right? you can tell from the anchor's discussion like one of the things that happened was it went off when nobody was expecting it to go off. was that the fine-minute warning? oh, there it is, right? part of what went wrong was there was no three, two, one. nobody knew it was going to blow up. but we kept the shot up because something else has gone wrong here, right? the bridge has not come down. we got the explosions. you still see the smoke there on the water. we were expecting the bridge to be blown up on the water but the bridge is still standing. we've got it from another vantage point. this is actually a better angle. i'll warn you it's coming, right? i'll tell you what you hear here is the explosion and then the sound cuts off on the camera

because of the big loud boom. but watch it from this angle. ready? three, two, one. that's where the sound cuts out. see, it's still going. big explosion. see all that junk fly off the bridge and into the poor arkansas river. the birds take off. see, here are the birds, right? then they're like, ooh, fly over the other direction. but the bridge is still there. after the explosion this was the arkansas highway department that was in charge of imploding this bridge today. they were very excited to blow up this bridge today. this is their twitter feed today. ahead of the 10:00 a.m. detonation time. pulaski county, broadway bridge will be imploded at 10 chk a.m. with this guy from the department pressing the button. and that guy presumably pushed the button, but it didn't blow up.

this is the following tweet from them. that didn't go quite as well as planned. so in the local press today in arkansas, that's interesting, cool enough to have a planned bridge implosion, the coverage of the local story. when you have to cover a failed bridge implosion, update, broadway bridge still stands after explosion attempt. quote, upon the detonation of the explosives, the bridge did not fall. officials are in the process of inspecting the bridge in search of a new way to bring it down. those working on the bridge warn that it is very dangerous and unsteady at this point and it could fall at any time. more details to come. little rock, arkansas, just had this weird thing happen today. this little bridge that they tried their darnedest to blow up and they did explode it but it didn't collapse. that just was this weird thing

after the detonation time. because after they were supposed to blow it up and they tried, it was still standing there. all day today in little rock, there was this uncollapsed partially exploded bridge still standing there unsafe, weak, threatening to fall any minute, not fit to bear any human weight, but all day today still there. so how is the republican party doing in today's news? today at breitbart.com, which is the conservative website that used to be run by the man who is now running donald trump's campaign, today they started running this pop-up ad in support of donald trump's campaign. you see the ad there in that sort of inset, right? it's got the trump logo on the top. it's us against the world. weirdly, though, there's no us in the photo. look who is in the photo. it's a photo of donald trump looking at himself in the mirror. that's the us.

donald trump has spent the last 24 hours going hammer and tongs against the party that made him their presidential nominee this year. from trump today, disloyal republicans are far more difficult than crooked hillary. they come at you from all sides. they don't know how to win. i will teach them. the very foul-mouthed senator john mccain. he also went after the highest ranking republican elected official in the country. house speaker paul ryan, calling paul ryan today, quote, our very weak and ineffective leader paul ryan. and whether or not donald trump is happily or unhappily transfixed by his own face in the mirror, he does appear to be losing the election clearly and badly right now, as he turns on his own party. "the new york times" number crunchers, they update every day based on new polling numbers. hillary clinton has an 88% chance of winning the

presidential election. donald trump's chances by their count are down to 12%. at 538.com, it's almost that bad for trump. they're giving hillary clinton an 83.5% chance and donald trump a 16.5% chance of winning. down ticket a little bit the projections for who will win the senate, those tend to be much tighter projections but the people who are making forecasts in ters of who will control the senate, it's leaning going towards the democrats as well. the holy grail for the democrats would not just be winning the white house and winning control of the senate, the holy grail, the almost unattainable dream for democrats would be regaining control of the house as well and turfing out paul ryan, putting nancy pelosi back in charge. the generic ballot where people were asked if they'd like to vote for a republican candidate for congress or democrat, that generic ballot is trending quite strongly toward the democrats.

we also keep reading reports that secret internal polling from both parties now shows house races to start to trend toward the democrats. that's reportedly some of what drove paul ryan yesterday to announce that he would no longer defend his party's nominee, no longer defend donald trump. instead he would just focus only on trying to keep republican control of the house. that's internal secret polling. there's no way for us to check that. but we do have multiple reports from multiple sources in both parties saying that they are looking at numbers in the house and republicans should be worried. and maybe that's true. control of the house is really an almost unattainable thing that democrats could almost wish for. they would need to flip 30 seats in the house in order to get control of that chamber. we reported that the democrats' best case scenario is they'd only take half that number of seats. as recently as a few weeks ago, they weren't dreaming of being

able to take over the house. they were dreaming of getting halfway there. it is still exceedingly unlikely that they could ever take over the house unless there was a huge landslide on november 8th. a double digit win for hillary clinton and democrats turn out to vote and republicans don't or as voters of every stripe decide to vote for democrats instead of republicans out of revulsion for the republican party having nominated donald trump and most of their candidates sticking by him. it's hard to imagine the democrats would be even in a position to dream about taking the house let alone hope to be taking back the house, let alone plan to be taking back the house. but all of a sudden today a lot of things fell in place that point in that direction all at once. not least of them is the fact that the republican party's own presidential nominee is campaigning against house republicans and hoping they lose their elections.

when republicans started peeling off from supporting donald trump this weekend after the release of the "access hollywood" tape, donald trump started openly rooting for them to lose. so many self-righteous hypocrites, meaning people abandoning him in his own party. watch their poll numbers and their elections go down. this is not trump tweeting against democrats, that's him tweeting against republicans. he's egging his supporters on to get excited about republicans losingelections this year. by us he means himself and the vision of himself he sees in the mirror. donald trump still does have an us, a running mate, mike pence. donald trump says he chose mike pence to be his running mate specifically for the purposes of party unity. this is supposed to be the bridge between donald trump and

the republican party. he's supposed to be the part of the trump campaign that makes normal republicans feel comfortable with donald trump being their nominee. but i'm here to tell you tonight there is something weird going on with mike pence in the trump campaign and it's not about the earlier rumors that he was going to jump off the ticket. this is something different. i believe we're the firsto report this and this is foundational as to whether the republican party and the trump campaign are even pulling in the same direction anymore. i believe we're the first to connect these dots, but follow me here. i think there's something odd going on with mike pence. you might have seen something in the political press over the last couple of days over the fact that pence had a fund-raiser scheduled in nebraska. he was supposed to do one today in nebraska with governor pete rickets. that was canceled. that itself isn't a big deal. campaign events get canceled, fund-raisers get moved. check out why it was canceled. canceled for a lack of interest in the donor community in nebraska for the trump/pence fund-raiser.

now, the nebraska governor's pete rickets. the rickets family is a billionaire family, they have their own super pac supporting the trump/pence ticket but even they couldn't rustle up enough donors to make it worth mike pence's while to come to nebraska for a fund-raiser. canceled for a lack of interest. we're the first in the national news to report that that fund-raiser is not the only one canceled this week for a lack of interest. mike pence was also supposed to do a fund-raiser in new jersey, heavily republican part of the state, word got out that that new jersey mike pence fund-raiser was being canceled. a lot of people assumed because of the timing that pence had canceled that event in new jersey because of fallout from the donald trump "access hollywood" tape that came out on friday. but look at the local coverage. ocean county politics was among the first to report that that fund-raiser was canceled and the

editor of ocean county politics, he tells the us it wasn't the "access hollywood" tape that resulted in the mike pence fund-raiser getting canceled. that got canceled a day or two before the tape came out. the reason that fund-raiser in nushlg got canceled, according to multiple sources who were involved in planning it is because they couldn't get anybody to show up. again, a lack of interest in attending that fund-raiser with ke pence. so pence is supposed to be the bridge from donald trump to normal republicans, right? to the rest of the republican party. what we're seeing now in nebraska and new jersey, two very disparate parts of the country, two very disparate types of people in the republican party, what we're seeing is that mike pence can't even do fund-raisers for the trump campaign because there aren't enough normal republicans left who are willing to come to those events. not enough republicans will show

up in person at an event with mike pence to give him money. not enough to make it worth his while to show up. and so could it be a landslide? could it be an implosion of the republican party big enough to bring the whole thing down, to make the unthinkable thinkable? to turn washington blue instead of just the white house? the headline tonight in "the washington post" is trump declares war on gop says the shackles have been taken off. today midday trump did send out this tweet. so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and i can now fight for america the way i want to. i don't know who he felt was shackling him. but what he mostly appears to be fighting now that the shackles are off is the party that nominated him for president. he's rooting for their demise. as the republican party consumes itself with this war within, hey, fascinating to watch. but b, it's an incredible opportunity for the democratic party, right?

and they're pouncing. they appear to be doing everything they can to take advantage. which is unlike democrats. they usually don't rise to those occasions. but all over the country, democrats are going for in-house races trying to tie every republican candidate for congress to donald trump. >> mike gallagher says we have to support donald trump. >> i moved on her like a --. grab them by the -- >> he didn't pay income taxes for 18 years. >> that makes me smart. >> and mocked disabled reporter. >> i don't know what i said. i don't remember. >> mike gallagher says we have to support donald trump. no, we don't. we don't have to support mike gallagher either. >> that's a house race in wisconsin where a democrat named tom nelson is running against a republican called mike gallagher. the democratic party says ads like that will run against congressional republican candidates all over the country. they're going to tie every

republican candidate in the country to trump. i mean, at this point at the top of the ticket, usually each candidate would be talking to their own voters trying to get out the vote, trying to mobilize their own party's base at this point in the race, on the trump side of things, that's definitely not happening. he's openly rooting against the fortunes of his own party on the republican side. on the democratic side at the top of the ticket, hillary clinton is going all out not only for her own base, she's also now going all out for base republican voters. >> we are mormons for hillary, join your fends and family and vote. >> please vote early by mail. >> or at your polling location on november 8. >> it is not uncommon for autistic kids to flap their hands. when i saw that, that was completely disqualifying. i'm a republican, but this election is so much bigger than party. my son max can't live in trump world. so i'm crossing party lines and

voting for hillary. >> i fought for my country in kosovo and iraq. and i've been a republican all my life. i'm voting for hillary clinton. >> i became active in the republican party to elect ronald reagan. i thought i would be able to support whoever the republican candidate was. i always have. i'm going to vote for hillary clinton. >> i voted republican then and i have ever since. i'm putting party aside and voting for hillary clinton. >> clinton campaign in the last few days targeting mormon voters, targeting republican voters, targeting lifelong republicans including republican activists who now say they're voting for clinton. but democrats aren't just going for their own base in the closing argument here, they're going for the republican base as well because they see them as available. even though this is starting to feel like a very one-sided fight, there's still a trump campaign. mike pence apparently cannot fill a room for a fund-raiser, but he did an event where he had to fend off the audience saying they're going to launch a

revolution. that was an awkward moment. a new campaign showing hillary clinton kofg and falling down, saying she doesn't have the strength to protect you. the conspiracy theory infowars website is now paying bounties to people who can get into political events and get themselves on tv to yell that bill clinton is a rapist. so the trump campaign still does exist. it is still plugging away. they're doing their thing. that's how they're doing their thing now. in this met fa for, is bridge is technically still standing, this republican party, this bridge between the trump campaign and the republican party. there have been concerted efforts to blow it up but donald trump is still the party's nominee, paul ryan's still do have a house majority. it would take a historic landslide to take that away from them. the bridge in this metaphor still stands. but the explosions have been detonated.

the republican party's presidential nominee has declared war on his own party. nobody knows exactly what's going to happen next in the election, but for what it's worth in arkansas today, they set off those explosions that were supposed to bring down that broadway bridge this morning at 10:00 a.m., that thing wavered, it shook all day, they pulled with ropes, that thing stood there perilously for five hours with nobody knowing what to do there and everybody staying away because it was unsafe. but ultimately 3:00 this afternoon inevitably the darn thing finally went down. >> oh, my god. woo-hoo. >> woo-hoo. finally. we'll be right back.

i mentioned a moment ago this news that i think we've

unearthed tonight about mike pence apparently having to cancel two fund-raisers over the space of just a few days. in both cases because of a lack of interest. a remarkable stage in the campaign where apparently four weeks out from election day the republican vice presidential nominee cannot fill a room to hold a fund-raiser for his campaign. it has happened in two states now in a matter of days. i also just mentioned that mike pence had a bit of a hard time tonight in iowa with a supporter vocally threatening revolution. we had reports of that earlier tonight. now we've got the tape. >> my name is rhonda. >> rhonda? >> i'm on social media every day all day nonstop. >> so am i. i mean not me. >> pushing trump. and one of the biggest things that i can tell you is a lot of us are scared of is voter fraud. we are -- there's a lot of us

that are out here saying that we go to vote, we're going to wear red. our lives depend on this election. our kids' futures depend on this election. and i will tell you just for me, and i don't want this to happen, but i will tell you for me personally, if hillary clinton gets in, i myself, i'm ready for a revolution because we can't have her in. >> yeah, don't say that. >> no, i'm just saying. am i not speaking people here? am i not saying the truth, guys? come on. >> mike pence today in iowa, oh, don't say that. oh, don't say that. >> robert costa from "the washington post" joins us next.

in line, about staying in line, now you have a candidate running against the speaker of the house. >> when you say that he's sort of running against him, i'm definitely seeing that in the language of his tweets, for lack of a better way to put it. >> it's more than that. >> he's hoping for republicans who don't support him to fall in the polls, to lose their elections. he's calling paul ryan an ineffective leader. is he maneuvering to try to cost the republicans as many seats as possible in november? >> i've done extensive reporting on this today. he leaves trump tower and he goes to the airport in new york, he starts tweeting about speaker ryan. he flies to texas. he talks to the donors behind the scenes about ryan. one told me tonight he just couldn't stop ripping on paul ryan. he taped an interview with another network, rips on paul ryan as one person who watched it said then tonight in florida, more on paul ryan. this is head-on directly against

the congressional republican majorities. this is how the gop is trying to hold on to its grip on power. >> if he creates enough anti-ryan sentiment among his supporters, and there are a lot of them, there are millions who voted for him in the republican primary, if push comes to shove with the republican party and reince priebus and other republican party leaders have to make a decision about paul ryan and donald trump, who do they side with? >> priebus is close to trump and close to ryan. he's clearly not going against ryan but he's with trump. it's striking that priebus is with trump on the road and in debate prep. the republican national committee to the chagrin of some of its members and to the positive of other, they're with trump. but the consequences of what the party is doing right now, not only the civil war but the way it's all navigating this has deep consequences whether trump wins or not because now ryan's political capital is being diminished.

you have members in congress openly very much up in arms against their own speaker. this is a civil war that does not end in 27 days. >> robert costa, right at the heart of this story. i'm here in bristol, virginia. and now...i'm in bristol, tennessee. on this side of the road is virginia. and on this side it's tennessee. no matter which state in the country you live in, you could save hundreds on car insurance looki'm in virginia.... i'm in tennessee... virginia... tennessee... and now i'm in virginessee. see how muchou cou save on car insurance. or am i in tennagia? hmmm... if you have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's, and your symptoms have left you with the same view, it may be time for a different perspective.

the shev se corvair was kind of weird. it was weird on purpose. they gave it aggressively sleek lines.

they put the engine in the back. they said you'd get more power, better traction, better ride all in a better-looking car and you could put the groceries in the front because the trunk was in the front, with the engine in the back. it was weird enough, though, that it took a little convincing to sell it when it first came out. >> here on the challenging lime rock connecticut raceway, the 1960 corvair was really put through its paces. made to prove itself. and it did. it proved its stability and then some. ta about stamina and reliability. just look at this. using the stream for its highway, the corvair actually plowed along like this for over 20 miles and not once did its reliable turbo air engine falter. just to see how it would stand up, they tried to make the corvair roll over.

it wouldn't. they locked the wheels so it had to roll over. the corvair took the punishment and asked for more. >> yeah. not really. that isn't really how it worked in the real world. the corvair was beautiful. it was hot. but remember that rollover? right away the corvair became known for catastrophic wrecks. for deadly rollovers, for fatal spinouts. and in 1965, it was first introduced in 1960, 1965 up popped an eloquent young activist who says those rollovers, those fatal wrecks, that wasn't a surprise. the company that made that car knew it would be a death trap and they sold it like that anyway.

he wrote a booabout it called "unsafe at any speed." he called the corvair a one-car accident. and it worked. gm halted the production of the corvair four years later. in addition to ending the chevy corvair, that activist, ralph nader, he brought us life savers like seat belts and head rests and freedom of information laws and recalls for unsafe products like, say, exploding samsung cell phones which were finally killed off by their manufacturer this week, corvair style. ralph nader went on for decades campaigning for consumer safety and for integrity and openness in government and then he decided that he wanted to campaign for himself for president in the election year 2000. liberals knock on the nominee that year, al gore, was he was boring, he wasn't all that different from george w. bush, but liberal ralph nader sure was different.

he ran on a green party ticket. he grew crowds, a crusading hero especially with young voters and he did get plenty of protest votes all over the country that year. 97,000 of those votes came in florida. and in florida al gore lost to george bush in the official but contested tally by less than a thousand votes. it was that close. you can't say that ralph nader's quixotic run for president in 2000 is why al gore lost. but the ghost of what might have been in the presidential election in the year 2000, they're back for this election. today in this bunkersland election we're in now, we got the news that al gore himself is back as well. that story is coming up. happy anniversary dinner, darlin'

prosperity of the last eight years. president clinton met with vice president gore hand off the party leadership and finally the political spotlight with one more endorsement. >> he is the right person to be the first president of the 21st century. al gore. >> bill clinton worked hard to get this economy right. and i'm pledging to you here today i am not going to let the other side wreck it and take it away from us. we're going to keep the prosperity going. >> and to celebrate this moment in his political life on his way out of michigan, bill clinton stopped for lunch at one of his old favorite haunts, mcdonald's. he ordered the crispy chicken and an extra large order of fries. >> that clip. tom brokaw intoning extra large

order of fries. there was always time for crispy chicken and fries. even if there was not much time for bill clinton in the al gore campaign for president in the year 2000. al gore was worried that the monica lewinsky scandal had done president clinton too much damage with swing state voters so he decided to basically ban the sitting president from campaigning in the battleground states that year and also from doing any network tv interviews during the final stretch of the campaign. we all know what happened in that campaign, al gore lost the closest presidential election in u.s. history ultimately decided by 500-odd-some voters in florida and the way those votes were counted. incidentally in florida, a green party candidate ralph nader polled almost 100,000 votes that year. >> let there be no doubt, while i strongly disagree with the court's decision, i accept it. i accept the finality of this

outcome which will be ratified next monday in the electoral college. tonight for the sake of our unity as a people and the strength of our democracy, i offer my concession. >> al gore's concession speech in 2000. since then we've not seen a lot of him at democratic party politics. he did speak at the convention and campaigned for president obama that year but he didn't attend the 2012 convention in charlotte and he skipped hillary clinton's convention, he said he had obligations in tennessee. that came after al gore basically sat out this year's democratic contest entirely. he did finally endorse hillary clinton in a series of three tweets on the opening day of her convention. no rush. al gore basically beamed himself out of democratic politics after what happened to him in 2000. the last time he had a chance to campaign with a clinton in 2000, he jumped away from that chance not toward it. now today, today he's back.

>> my first message, the climate crisis is and must be regarded as a top national priority. and a top global priority. here's my second message. your vote really, really, really counts a lot. you can consider me as an exhibit a of that group. if you think your vote does not matter, take it from me, your vote can make all of the difference in this election. >> former vice president al gore with hillary clinton today. naturally in florida. not to undercore the point too much, but in florida. at a time when the clinton campaign looks like it may, may be sewing thins up in this election, why is today the day

they brought al gore back? and what's he been doing anyway? joining us is the great e.j. dionne at the brookings institution and a great all-around person. >> it's great to be with you, rachel. thanks so much. >> let me ask you if you know what al gore has been up to all of these years? we did see him briefly in 2008, but other than his climate activism, which i'm a little bit aware of, i don't know what he's been doing. >> he's been making some money on the side, of course, but the climate stuff, he's been pushing for political reform. he's written a lot of books. but i think that the climate activism has been at the center of his life. if you ask the question, why was he campaigning today for hillary clinton, it's because donald trump is completely wrong on that issue. and so even though he and hillary clinton have had tensions going back to the time in the white house when she was often a more influential voice not surprisingly perhaps than he

was and he tangled again when she ran for the senate and he worried that's going to take money away from my campaign. despitetensions, there was no doubt about who he would campaign for eventually. >> should we be reading more into the reference he made today about your vote counts. take me as exhibit a. i use the ralph nader story, a little bit of it, in order to set this up because, a, they're in florida and, b, i wonder if this means the clinton campaign is worried about the green party candidate or the libertarian party candidate taking some votes in places like florida? >> i think they are. when you look at the pattern of support for most of the green votes, if they come from either of them, come from clinton and the libertarian vote, but as gary johnson has added votes he's taken more away from clinton.

and you know, there's been controversy did nader cost gore the election? i think the evidence is pretty clear. even a political science study designed to debunk the nader effect found that nader voters are about 3-2 for al gore. so that would have tipped the result in florida that the supreme court had ratified. and so i think gore's message is very pointed, which is, you know, third parties have played a noble role in our history, socialist, farmer, labor rights, libertarians. but you have to decide if it really doesn't matter to you if al gore -- if donald trump gets elected president in order to cast that third party vote. if you really care about whether clinton or trump prevails, you can't vote third party. and i think that's what al gore was down there saying because if this race gets closer, those votes could count. >> both saying it and embodying

it. >> you bet. >> which is a powerful way to get a message across. e.j. dionne, senior fellow at brookings. been too long since you've been here. >> good to be back. guess what guys, i switched to sprint. sprint? i'm hearing good things about the network. all the networks are great now. we're talking within a 1% difference in reliability of each other and, sprint saves you 50% on most current national carrier rates. save money on your phone bill, invest it in your small business. wouldn't you love more customers? i would definitely love some new customers. sprint will help you add customers and cut your costs. swit your business to sprint and save 50% on most current verizon, at&t and t-mobilrate don't let a 1% difference cost you twice as much. whoooo for people with hearing loss, visit sprintrelay.com. you're at the top of your game.. at work or at play, you're unstoppable. nothing can throw you off track. oh hey, she's cute. nice going man. things are going grt for you. you've earned a night out.

the north and the south are mine. all seems beautifuto me. they should listen. she's a freakin' demon, and she stinks, like what, sulfur. they smell like hell. >> fizzy edge of the far right conspiratorial group has been trying to get somewhere with these tee shirts. he may have needed a little more funding from the republican candidate. what's it like to ben good hands? like finding new ways to be taken care of. home, car, life insurance obviously, ohhh...

so though is disgusting. but, here's a little decoder ring, a little dedisgusto ring. we first saw it in las vegas thursday night. tim kaine was interrupted by a protester wearing a shirt that said rape on it. and thguy yelled out "bill clinton is a rapist." then we saw it happen multiple times at multiple clinton events today, where the featured speaker was president obama and one where the featured speaker was bill clinton himself.

>> here's the problem! bill clinton is a rapist! >> never mind. [ applause ] >> oh, no. [ crowd boos ] >> ah-oh, somebody's yelling at me again. there's a guy on the radio who apparently trump's on his show frequently. he said me and hillary are demons. said we smell like sulfur. ain't that something? >> there's a guy on the radio.

the guy on the radio is alex jones who runs the info wars conspiracy theory radio show, and he does call hillary clinton and president obama demons. he says they smell like sulfur, he says he has it on good authority that they are in fact literally possessed by demons. >> he is an abject demon from hell that as soon as she gets into power they're go being to take over the planet. she's so evil and possessed that they are having nightmares, they're freakin' out. if the media wants to go with their, that's fine. there are dozens of videos photos of president obama having flies on him. hillary, reportedly, i mean, i was told they think she's demon possessed. i'm just going to go ahead and say it, okay?

>> ready to connect the dots? the guy who says he has it on good authority that president obama and hillary clinton are literally demons, he's the reason we're getting the people screaming "rape", at all the clinton events because he and his conspiracy theory demon possession website are now in support of the trump campaign, they're now offering $1,000 bounty to anyone who can get a bill clinton rape shirt on tv for 5 seconds, and a $5,000 bounty for anybody who can being heard on tv saying "bill clinton is a rapist" while wearing the shirt. it's a way to sell shirts. they are highly coordinated with a monetary incentive by donald trump's number one internet radio conservative internet conspiracy theory supporter, the guy who also says president obama is a demon, because the flies tell him so. so there you have it.

>> there's going to be a lot of hot trump action that day in florida. at least keep your beeper on. >> i will do that. thank you, rachel. a woman who was a participant on donald trump's show "the apprentice", will join us tonight and tell us what she heard and how she felt behind the scenes with donald trump, but first, does anyone know exactly where johnny knoxville is tonight? because it sure feels like he's running the trump campaign. >> i don't think i'm that outspoken to be honest with you, bill. >> oh, come on! >> he's attacked paul ryan. >> he's attacking john mccain. >> john mccain who has probably the dirtiest mouth in all the senate. >> i don't know what good it does to trash people. >> he's running an ad. >> north korea threatening, isis on he rise. >> it's like apocalypse now. >> you're watching the split of the republican party.
