inaccurate accusations and putting out misinformation about me. av you may h e noticed thated tha there little breaking news. ns. hillary clinton the a pressn ths conference today. tod it's the first time in 278 278 days.da >> she did the -- she had a little gaggle press gaggle when they unveiled the newe n plane.pl this is the closest we've hade'd to one in a long time. te. >> late this afternoon donald an trump fired backly he took onon the issue of education andcati a slammed clinton and democrats ad for what he called their failed policies. >> the democratic party hasartys strapped millions of african-american and hispanic hc youth in failing government schools that deny them the the opportunity to join the ladder r of american success.. it's time to break up that monopoly.monopoly have to do it.o dot. it's simply a matter of putting students first, not the education bureaucracy and

>> things that donald trumpthat came under fire for was when wae he was talking about african-american outreach doing it front of largely large white audiences.udiences. he was at a school in a sool in cleveland he talked toevelal students out there but then butn again he went into the press conference talking about a hillary clinton not so much much about education.cation. >> let's bring in terrence in te samuel from the washington post. the politics editor atingt the e post and we appreciate you being here to help us sort all l this out tonight.ig >> thanks for having me.s fo hav >> from the town hall lastl st night who do you think was thet winner and who was the loser. >> it was hard to tell.t was you know, hard they both did d something completelyet different. hillary clinton played to her very organized prepared measured self and donald trump u got his politics of and answered a lot of questions he was not asked and you saw exactly how this campaign iss ci going to play out over thever t next six weeks. weeks. they just played to their strengths and a

other on their weaknesses and,sd you know, you can make the t case that we have no idea whata we're looking at because bse donald trump has so in some som ways clamored all the usual u metrics.tr usually what we're talkingy whae about now is people areeoplare starting to pay attention, theon race really starting in i earnest after labor day. d. >> right.>> >> but nobody has not beenn paying attention so to speak sak since donald trump has been in e this race and, you know, quiteui frankly we've known hillary hil clinton for 25 years. >> yeah.eah. >> so n-some ways we really don't know what we'reme look atk in a lot of ways. i think part of what was a soo exciting about last night is that you got a sense of what'sha going to happen when thesehese debates happen and these twose o people are on the same stage. se >> terrence there was a lot ofee criticism which we'll talk tis about a little bitm whic later involving matt lauertt l moderating the the forum last night. donald trump got a lot ofot o issues in.issues hillary clinton spent the the first 15 minutes deferring15 mut e-maesil. this is the scandal that isn'tt' going away.y. will this continue to hurt her chances.

talking about this ands d explaining, it is a problem.ble. in some ways i think they have adjusted to the fact it's any iy other going to go away and a she's going to try to answer anr the questions as best as she can. it is not helpful.. the best thing they have goingoi for them quite frankly is the nominee on the other side whoe w has problems of his own. own. >> let me ask you about there tminee on the other side with n the problems of his only he h came out and praised putin. p. he he also sort of slammed the current generals. do you think this is going tonkt hurt him or are people justeus going say it's ton trump beingmi donald trump and move on and a won't think anything about it.gi >> this is the big question. does he manage to do his -- basically his bluster and his bumper sticker kind ofind o rhetoric not very deep on any a particular issue but in some s ways communicating kind of

sentiment that peoplepl understand and does that do enough to help him connect with people who clearly he's h trying to reach, or does itdoest turn off enough people who think that he is insufficiently prepared, anypary other well informed, too outside of the norm for thisrhi job.b. >> all right.>> all right. terrence samuel the washingtonhg politics editor for washingtonhn post thanks for coming in.ming i we appreciate having you onatin the show he today.od >> enjoyed it.>> >> to politics. young people social mediaal intersecting more and morendore every day and nbc's matt lauer really got a taste of it. i >> twitter ripped him apartped a while he was moderating thatingt commander in chief forum. some other journalistsan felt that lauer did not press the pre candidates hard enough on some of the key issues.rd e ahead -- the head of washington post fact checkingheg unit tweeted how can someone seo like matt lauer not set theet te record straight on trump's tmp bogus claim on being against the war in iraq. ira matt

more homework. >> this nbc forum feels likee an embarrassment to t journalism.jo it's about sound bites notit n serious discussion of foreign policy he. he. >> a new york times politicalic reporter tweeted trump got mostly softball balls but he bue rode over that.ver i feel for the position mattitit lauer was in. i he needed to ask the tough questions. he only had so much time toime get it in.ge in. they also had to take tak questions from the audience as well.. >> in hillary clinton's cnton instance someone asked what'ssks your plan for isis and lauerndau goes quickly.. >> so what do you to.o. >> that doesn't serve theve the public, that doesn't serve youae the voters well atsn all.ll >> not at all.>> not at all >> does the. reaction to lauer e show the perils for debate moderators. we know who they are and the editor with the huffingtonuffing post is here to talk about thett power of social media and the t internet.in page how arete t

>> great. g how are you. >> doing well. >> we had that list of thatist moderators come out.omeut donald trump said he wanted to t see the list. lt. he seems happy with the list. l what's your take on who they the chose to moderate the debates. s >> i think it's a good mix.k its one thing that worried me m especially after hat lauer'ser's performance with that forum is chris wallace is there firstre t fox person to be chosen to t moderate a debate but the b the thing that's really worrying won is not that he works for fox f f the thing that's worrying isryis that he has said that he he doesn't think it's his job to jt fact check the candidates asdata they're debating each o he thinks it's clinton's job to t fact check trump and vicemp andv versa. >> that was something that tha candy crowley got a lot of o blow back from when she moderated one debate between barack obama and mitt romney when she said that was going to be her mission fact checking but page don't you y think that the -- you don'ton believe he's right in sayingn sn they should keep each otherulke honeepst. ne >> i definitely think theynkhe could they should keep each other honest and i thinkthey a i clinton will try to do that t and i think tru

clinton out whenever he seals s the opportunity do so but as a journalist the core of your you job to make sure that the the people you're covering covin specifically lawmakers inly wmak chris wallace's skies to make sure they're telling the truth and so for matt lauer lastuelast night to let trump say that he opposed the iraq war from the te beginning without calling himlim out on it was a huge fail.il. >> page you gave matt lauer amar below than average grade for. that how would you grade theou rest of his performanceld though or can you understand thatand this is only 24 minutes forues f each candidate and he sort of so had to do what he had to do too get through that.ha >> it's definitely a toughinitet spot to be in especially when you're on a time crunch like.unk that i definitely don't falter't him for wanting the answers towo be a little more concise but iib do think that he shop pushed trump quite a bit harder on a o few things.few things. the tone of his questions forior trump very much felt more in moi line with what trump's tmp's personality is like wherease wha the questions that he wast he w asking clinton were a lot moreor about what her policy issues are, policy stance rather so iao definitely think he could haveuh made the questions a littlee more on
