7:04 am

7:05 am
>> reporter: neither was hillary clinton. >> he is feeding in the worst impulses. bigotry. >> reporter: nor michelle obama. >> there were those who questioned and continue to question for the past eight years up to this very day whether my husband was even born in this country. >> reporter: sitting in the oval office, her husband shrugged it off. >> i was confident where i was born. i think most people were as well. >> reporter: while democrats seized on the awaiting him in miami dug in. >> he doesn't need it. obama has to say i'm sorry to us. to the american people. >> reporter: trump was on jimmy fallon on thursday and clinton on fallon last night where it was her chance to poke fun at herself. >> welcome. welcome. thank you so much.
7:06 am

7:07 am
as a matter of electoral analysis, does this shift the race? no. my guess is things that should outrage the public should not. >> we watched this announcement play out where he finally admitted that president obama was in fact born here. the way it was done and the contents of how did it play or how do you think it would play with independent voters or undecided voters if there are any >> the bizarre spectacle that happened with the launch of the luxury hotel in washington, d.c. for a half hour is how everybody experienced the story. most people were not sitting home watching msnbc through the controversy, although they should. >> thank you. >> it made a lot of people in the media angry. they felt they were lied to and told donald trump would take questions and he did not. they got tricked into covering
7:08 am
said he would talk about for two sentences and did not put it to bed. he said the president was born here, period. he spent eight years with this theory. what changed your mind? the long form birth certificate. you got five years ago and continue to go around and saying he had not been born in the country. they did not put the issue to bed. the thing i don't know how is the electorate going to look at was born in the united states, but how many think this is outrageous racist slur and how many think it is a weird thing that trump was wrong about. >> with that said, the national polls right now are in a dead heat. what is it? is he surging or is hillary clinton dipping a bit because of the rough week and health scare?
7:09 am
bad couple weeks with the fbi notes. the basket of deplorables comment. the polls did continue to fall after she said that. and finally with the health scare that both raised questions for some people about her health and had her off the campaign trail for several days. on the other hand, donald trump changed the way he campaigned. he changed his top campaign team in august. brought in kellyanne conway who is experienced operative. she is giving him better donald trump is running this bizarre campaign for over a year and few points behind hillary clinton. what if running a slightly less bizarre campaign is enough to catch up with her? we will see over the next week to the debate whether being out there and showing people she is healthy, is that enough to improve or is donald trump's somewhat less outrageous and out of control persona enough.
