other things. >> we spent a lot of money reminding people in different things, the priority being the super pacple about the various things he said about women and did about women in his life and really the other kind of point of focus for us had to do with his temperament as commander intrigue which was truly worrisome -- commander in chief which was truly worrisome to people. came up organically in focus groups. just his general divisiveness and trump tenor. >> what was amazing in talking and traveling with donald trump voters, it serves your point how quickly they forget him for things. he became a vessel for whatever voter issues were. if you used to vote as democrat but you don't feel like you are getting ahead, then donald trump became your economic vessel. you found a way to say i do not agree with the things he says about latinos are muslims are screwed up and apologized and he has the right message on this and we heard people say that time and time again about whatever their core issue was. >> there is a phenomenon in social psychology called cognitive dissonance. when people want to d

the voters you need to win. >> let me say this. paul's running a super pac. g difference and immediate difference is that sheldon adelson has now come in with $25 million, which he has said is the minimum that he is going to contribute. but the other thing is, that has an effect on other big donors who have kept their money on the sidelines. so i think that effectively spending this new money that's going to come in in the next seven days will be a big factor that we'll see in the polls. but it may take three or four days to germinate. >> kayleigh, i know you wanted to get a point in. >> yeah, with i wanted to say, as bad as donald trump is, the clinton campaign has done a fantastic job of trying to caricature him as being the worst person on earth. the millions and millions of dollars spent on advertising when donald trump has spent zero. he's still in striking distance in michigan. that's because this culture of -- >> where's he in striking distance in michigan? >> this who shoal, when we've talked about this corruption and the fbi, this is what created dona

so disclosure, including the super pacs, and to the extent that the supreme court considers speech to be that amount to a donation, there are limits to what everyone in this room can give any political race. there's a $2700 limit. so if this should be a limit on this good lady on the first row contribute to a member of congress, there can be other limits, too. so i don't agree with the whole thing citizens united. that puts me in a small majority among republicans but i want to let me just say this to you. i'm going to let the koch brothers, to go for this respect i have never met either one of them. i met bono twice. never met the koch brothers once. i met the president six times. never met the koch brothers a single time. so the notion that you are member of congress or your senator can be bought for a single donation, you should categorically reject that. i'll to you what matters to me. the opinion and the advice of someone i trust that they work for in the upstate of south carolina. never met the koch brothers. i get that it's a talking point that they can all of y'all to mention

that's how democrats explain the super pac backing hillary clinton. they are up in wisconsin. rivately many democrats say that's really about the senate race. this is a question. post fbi investigation how much does this impact the ability to retake the senate. >> more get did poll and found over six days they did the polling, 50% of voters say they were bothers a lot by the clinton e-mail issue, the clinton server issue. when you hear that, look at the down ballot races look at ron johnson. what does that tell you? does it tell you anything about other down ballot races? are we seeing the chances for a republican to keep control of the senate increasing? can you draw that conclusion yet? >> it's troubling perhaps for donald trump. if you have a republican senate candidate running against catching up and the senate candidate doing better than the presidential candidate. if you are seeing the base of the gop coming home as the trump campaign says. they are not coming home to donald trump necessarily but to the republican party and down ballot candidates. if you are senator mccon

the fec has interpreted it to allow presidential candidates to appear at fund-raisers for super pacs. the fec has declined to enforce even its weak rules on coordinated spending. you have seen both presidential candidates this year edging ever closer to their support of super pacs undermining the idea of independence. again, citizens united, the reasoning rested on this notion that independent expenditures are independent and it's the fault of the fec we have single candidate super pacs. we have single candidate super pacs. citizens united also endorsed disclosure of donations, that it would help eliminate the opportunities for corruption from unlimited independent expenditures, but dark money, undisclosed political spending has exploded in recent years and that's the fault of the fec, that's the fault of the fec undermining the existing disclosure laws by narrowly interpreting it to only apply to when a nonprofit spends on elections they only have to disclose contributions made for the purpose of funding those particular ads so any nonprofit can assert none of the contributions that

the super pacs ran that clip thousands of times, people showed people were troubleed by that. r thought he knew more about war fighting than the generals. a very good thing that donald trump is looking at generals. the particular concern about general petraeus is, i guess you could do anything when the president-elect, but he excoriated hillary clinton for mishandling e-mails in a case that even the republican fbi director who tilted the election for trump said, no reasonable prosecutor to possibly bring a case against hillary. clearly not a crime. pa tretraeus was guilty a of cr pled guilty to it knowingly handing over classified information to his biographer and lying to the fbi about it. he's paid his debt to society. if the president wants him to serve, the senate ought to vote on confirmation, but it's awfully hypocritical, wantin to lock hillary clinton up for something nowhere near a crime to someone who clearly did commit a crime. >> i want to talk, alice, about a decision hearing about donald trump, an announcement in the middle of december, sort of a going out of busi

. >> the american national super pac makes this call to support donald trump. the white race is dying out in america and europe because we are afraid to be called racist. donald trump is not afraid. the white race is being replaced by other peoples in america and in all-white countries. donald trump stands strong as nationalist. the american national super pac makes this call in support of donald trump. >> those are a couple of the many, many robo calls made during the republican primary campaign on behalf of donald trump's candidacy, calls made by a white nationalist group. the trump campaign doesn't appear to have anything to do with these calls. they reportedly returned a donation from this guy. it was further embarrassing to the trump campaign when this guy, this farmer and white nationalist who does these robo calls, he was initially picked to be a trump delegate at the convention this year before his delegate status got yanked once it was widely reported. "the daily beast" reports after that first donation made to trump that got returned, "the daily beast"

the nuclear arsenal. did your opinion of super pacs change? >> no, they haven't changed at all. clear issue transcends all other issues. because if a president miscalculates, misreads the intent of the enemy, doesn't have the leadership or the capacity to diffuse a crisis diplomatically before it gets to be at the nuclear level, then it doesn't make a difference what that person's position is on abortion or campaign finance reform or immigration. i really think that at -- because if the war happens, we're all toast, right? and i really think that the most important question citizens ask themselves or herself before they vote for president is who do i trust with my life? and, you know, john mccain and mitt romney, if either one of them had won, i was for obama, but i would have trusted them with my life. i will not trust donald trump with my life. i don't think he's got the ability or the experience to diffuse a crisis and, second -- >> michelle here, i'm sorry to interrupt you, but i think a lot of people would be watching and saying, we had 16 years of foreign policy elite runni

election, we won't contribute to the parties, the candidates or, what we call here in america, the super-pacs, the political action committees that support those candidates. so we did institute that rule. i think the members of our commission thought that was an important ethical standard we should have so that nobody would question the alliance of this commission when it came to designing the debates. which is then the answer to the first question. even though there have been some commentary during this political season about the process being rigged, i think we were credited with putting together very independent, very fair opportunities for the candidate to present their views. some people judged one the win, one the leadser, that is the way our commentary goes. we don't make the comments ourselves. our job is to design the format, present the opportunity and let candidates go with questions and answers and moderators pose the questions and take the content they think is in the best interests of the american people. bill: frank, would you like to add to that? frank: i agree with everything

the airwaves. so far outside pacs and super- pacs have spent 80 million dollars on the senate race between catherine cortez masto and joe heck.. org. the candidates have spent nearly 27 million.. pushing well above 100 million dollars total. and more pac and super-pac money has been spent on nevada's congressional district 3 race... than any other in the country. so far those groups have poured 14 point 7 million into the race between danny tarkanian and jacky rosen for an open seat. in 2014... just under 2 million was spent on that race./// ((denise valdez)) >>> still no charges yet in about six months. three las vegas men we're arrested for damaging federal property. they face several charges including killing an endangered species, destruction of property and trespassing. sharie johnson did some digging to see why there are no charges from either the county or feds? ((sharie johnson)) >>>the men we're arrested then released from nye county. that's because they expected federal charges. but those have yet to come. feds wouldn't explain why. the pupfish only live in one spot... devils hole... which

contributors who are on the books have contacts on the campaign and surrogates during the primaries, running super pacsbbying for the children tons, they are getting money from cnn and the clinton circle. so they are making a ton of money off of this. literally one person, he didn't get any money for bernie. kennedy: it shows you how different the race would have been if these leaks had come out sooner when voters would have been better informed on what the dnc was doing to bernie. >> now the head of the dnc, we are looking at two liars and cheats as far as that goes. wasserman completely screwed over bernie. it's called cheating. it's not ethical to do in an election where you are bank on the people's trust. she was on megyn kelly's show trying to defend herself it was was -- it was a terrible attempt. she said that's rumor or that might not be true. we find out it was absolutely true it was lying and ask cheating and giving her an unfair advantage. kennedy: another revelation came out today. as you may have noticed donald trump is quick to credit the f.b.i. for its good work. >> it took guts for dire

think if they had done that kind of work very early on and certainly the kind of money that the bush super pac had, they were in a position that they could done it but it want part of their strategy. i can't say that i wouldn't have agreed with very early on. nobody could have really anticipated how this played out in the primaries. but it takes time to dig this stuff up. it doesn't just sprout up on its own. >> during the primary, the hole point was to get into these one-on-ones. in ted cruz's case, his idea was to drap right until the end. >> and even now that we know some these stories, they the. >> on the khan family, on women in general with the "access hollywood" tape. >> "access hollywood" has damaged him without a doubt. >> to that point, this number in the last block we talked about this, 28% sort of theory that target smart put out that 28% of republicans were going for hillary clinton, which when i heard that number, i didn't believe it. i just wanted to ask you about it. could it be possible that maybe it's republican women? >> i think it might be both republican women and cubans v

the super pac for hillary clinton, reminding people about the different things he said about women in his life. the other point of focus for us at to do with his temperament as commander-in-chief, which was truly worrisome to people. came up organically in focus groups. just his general divisiveness and trump tenor. >> what was amazing in talking to the donald trump voters, it serves your point how quickly they forget him for things. he became a vessel for whatever folder issues -- whatever voter issues were. you used to vote as democrat but you don't feel like you are getting ahead, then donald trump became your economic vessel. you could say, i don't agree with things he says about latinos or muslims or women, but he apologized and he has the right message on this. we have heard people say that time and time again about whenever their core issue was. >> there is a phenomenon in social psychology called cognitive dissonance. if people really want to do something, and they really wanted to do something, they find a way to do it and explain it to themselves. it is a powerful force. >>

it's another attempt by the republican super pacs, the right wing groups trying to distract from the fact that marco rubio is a no-show. that he doesn't even like his job. and they're going to continue trying to push these negative stories, nonsense, to distract the voters here in florida. but at the end of the day, floridians see through this nonsense and they want a senator that's going to show up. i'm proud of my 97% voting record. proud to be one of the most independent members of congress because i'll always do what's best for florida. >> so just to be clear until the hill published this you didn't know there was an fbi investigation? >> no. and our campaign has never been contacted by the authorities. so, you know, we continue to follow the letter of the law, and again, this is just speculation and republican groups trying to distract and they're going to continue trying to push this story. but we're not concerned, and nor have we been contacted. >> do you think marco rubio's campaign is behind planting this story or somehow leaking it? >> well, i don't want to be a conspiracy

here now for a follow-up is the former director of the jeb bush super pac and the democratic strategistlos angeles. i got it wrong as well. i will start the thing. i got it wrong. i got it wrong. i got it wrong. this is not just me blaming you. i got it wrong. that, why did you -- so confident for so long there was no way trump would win, what do to get wrong? mike: that is the question. i got it really wrong. the only person who was more surprised than me was donald trump. here's what i think i missed and i saw a good op-ed who also got it wrong. we look at the numbers. we look at the polling data and the demographic makeup of the electorate. it was pretty clear. he did get 2 million fewer votes than hillary clinton. i did not think he would do better with latinos and i thought he would get a historic african-american turnout, which she did not do. i knew he would do well with non-educated white working-class people, i did not think he would break the meter. away reagan numbers there. i've never seen anything like it. that kind of thing in places like there and the michael moore towns
