just as trump emphasizes former president barack obama's middle name, hussein, which is commonly used in the muslim world, although he is not muslim, trump also used it, he blamed obama and president biden for the attack. >> this problem was caused, in my opinion, by his boss, barack obama, barack hussein obama member rush limbaugh used to sit like that.>> one of the hallmarks in his presidency and his reign over the republican party has been taking racism out of the mainstream to social media, campaign rallies and even the presidential debate stage in 2020. >> you would have lost everything. pocahontas. >> trump was referring to the massachusetts senator elizabeth warren, claiming to have native american ancestry, he took a test, an effort to claim a connection and ended up apologizing, but that doesn't change calling her anyone pocahontas, a racial slur, trump has been consistent, become a dumping ground he said mexico is sending rapists over the border when he launched his 2016 the presidential campaign, and because trump university, saying the judge was mexican and the impartial,

she stabbed the party in the back by siding with barack hussein obama against the trump travel ban. >onald trump attacking nikki haley at a rally in new hampshire last night. with five days left until that state's primary it remains to be seen if nikki haley intends to respond in kind over the next five days or ever. joining me now is david plouffe, campaign advisor for barack obama's 2008 presidential campaign and host of the hq podcast. so many credentials, david plouffe. yeah, how are you thinking about this? nikki haley is the only thing standing between the republican party and the trump abyss. and yet after attacks like that, some of them are explicitly racial, they're definitely demeaning, and they're, you know, gloves off. we are getting nothing from nikki haley even approaching that level of velocity. >> for sure. to be clear i was campaign manager for barack hussein obama. >> i was actually going to say it. >> this is one of the most intense weeks in american politics. and i'd say haley's schedule i think the urgency of what she's saying trump has to be stopped, it's very we

barack hussein obama. barack -- emphasis on hussein obama. he was a piece of work.i medal of freedom. remember that? he was very brave. he thought a hard battle the last couple of years -- fought a hard battle the last couple of years. against me, the travel ban meant to keep people from terrorist countries out of the united states, if you do not mind. she fought me. she was in a different position. but, she fought me on it. i was not too happy. sometimes, you do things. she even said illegal aliens are not criminals. they are changing their tune but it is not going to happen. first of all, they are both getting killed by biden in votes. i am being biden in every single pole. [applause] nikki had one rigged poll three months ago that showed she was up by 12 points. it was a ridge pol --rigged poll. so, what happened is she loses every time. she loses in every state. she loses everybody. she is really not much of a republican. she is not maga. desanctimonious raising the age for social security 270. nikki haley says the retirement of 65 is "way too low." you do not h

you more than anything -- >> i am reminded of barack obama, that his most infamous birther attempt, and the fact that it went from barack obama to barack husseinel like it was a matter of time, time your watches to the moment when -- honestly that's the next tail. i think it's in the double indignation that he is being challenged, potentially, but by a person of color, the daughter of immigrants, a woman, that adds to the venom, i think. >> i think it adds to the vendÔme that nikki haley has not leaned into her heritage in the primary campaign. she's nikki, not nimrod on the campaign. trail i a lot of brown folks behind or talking about how she was a child of immigrants in what she brings to the primary. but i do think, a little bit it is the internal polling. the question i always have, when candidates decide to attack another candidate, because they do have indicators that this president is a threat, they also have indicators on what is a viable attack. i don't actually think in iowa or new hampshire the who she's a scary brown lady, because that's what he said. he saying that she is attempting to other her in an attempt to say that she's no

more than anything -- >> i am reminded of barack obama, right, that his most infamous birther attempt and the fact that the went from barack obama to barack husseinma. and i feel it's a matter of time. exactly, i feel that's the next tell, and i think it's the double indignation he's being challenged potentially but by a person of color where, the daughter of immigrants, a woman, i mean that adds to the venom i think. >> i think it ads to the venom uti'll also note nikki haley has not exactly leaned into her heritage. i haven't seen a lot of brown folks standing behind her talking about how she's a child of immigrants and what that means and what she bring tuesday the republican primary. >> true. >> but i do think it is the internal polling is he's scared but the question i always have is when a candidate decides to attack another candidate because they do have indicators this president is a threat, they also have indicators what is a viable attack, and i don't actually think in iowa and new hampshire the, ooh, she's a scary brown lady because that's what he said. he's attempting to other her in an attempt to say she is not one of us, she is not

you've seen him do it with names, mispronounce names when he goes up on stage and talks about barack hussein obama, he does that to get the crowd riled up. that's what you're seeing there too. the name is -- that's not totally surprising. >> elaborate on that comment about the source of the attack. >> because i think that trump has shown that he has more negative reactions to women who are criticizing him. this has been something that we have seen throughout the last decade. we saw it at the very beginning of his 2016 candidacy when his target was megyn kelly and rosy o'donnell. he doesn't like women criticizing him so haley being the last person standing against, being a woman, is going to cause him to lash out further. >> we're going to take a quick break. next exclusive reporting on the district attorney prosecuting donald trump in georgia. could she be forced off the case because of allegations of an affair with a fellow prosecutor. >>> now new exclusive reporting the district attorney leading the 2020 election subversion case in georgia may be called to testify at a hearing on whether she sho

and then there was barack hussein obama whose nickname was the deep order in chief. the former president deported over 3 million illegals and was showered with heckles. >> we will make our country more secure, strengthen our families and most importantly we will live up to our character as a nation. >> that's exactly what we are talking about. what i would like to do, don't worry about it, guys. let me finish. >> as you can see a president has always been responsible for his administration's border policies. not congress, not the vice president, the president. once upon a time joe biden agreed. >> did you make a mistake with those deportations? >> the president did the best that he was able to do. >> how about you? >> i'm the vice president of the united states. >> the vice president became the president, broke the border and now claims he is powerless. >> have you done everything you can do with executive authority? >> i've done all i can do. give me the power. i've asked for the very day since i got into office. give me the border patrol. give me the people who can

remember that he repeatedly questioned former president barack obama was citizenship and repeatedly asked for his birth certificate calling him barack husseinhis is part of his presidential campaign. is there a political strategy? reporter: there is a playbook that has been used by republican politicians in the past that appeals to fears of the other fears of brown and black people. we saw it used by richard nixon and saw it used by ronald reagan. this is something that is not necessarily new to the republican party but i spoke with en lopez from uc berkeley, a professor of race and constitutional law and he asked ain't how dog whistle politics animates american voters. >> what is happening with dog whistle politics is you have politicians that are strategic weight and perp -- strategically and purposely looking to exploit people's unconscious vulnerabilities i saying "welfare queen," " illegal alien." terms they know will trigger unconscious racist views but which they also can say -- i did not say anything racist, i did not mention skin color. reporter: professor lopez mentioned that dog whistle politics is of active because it animates f

strong voter policies and in 2016 she stabbed the republican party in the back by siding with barack hussein obama. if you want a losing candidate that puts america last, vote for nikki haley. but if you want a president who puts america first every single time, you're going to vote for donald j. trump. >> elsewhere in his speech trump praised -- heaped praise on hungary authoritarian leader before bashing a, quote, weak president joe biden moments later. and as the night progressed, trump began to stray from a teleprompter impersonalitying the sounds of a missile launch and ending the speech with a muddled message ability the death penalty. >> a very tough man, viktor orban. have you ever heard of him? he's the prime minister of hungary. right, good. prime minister of hungary and he's a tough man, strong man, veryermented. i happen to think he's a good man. the press goes crazy when i say it. we can't have a weak president. we have a weak man that cheats like hell. that's the only thing they're good at. the they cheated at elections. i've seen shots you wouldn't believe. they go missile launch an

barack hussein obama, not born in the united states.rked for him then, he's trying it again now. and who knows, it could be effective. the numbers show it's effective with his base. howard: all right. ahead, bret baier's exclusive interview with donald trump. but when we come back, did the network skew things up by -- screw things up by quickly calling iowa for the formerth president? v l ♪ network. (ella) we get more control of production, efficiencies, and greater agility. (jen) that's enterprise intelligence. (vo) it's your vision, it's your verizon. ♪ ♪ mom! mom! every day can be extraordinary with rich, creamy, delicious fage total yogurt. howard: it was just about half an hour after the iowa caucuses began that cnn, fox, msnbc and the ap all a projected donald trump the winners, you see there with just 1% of the actual vote in. and ron desantis didn't like that. enter they even called the election before people even got a chance to vote! howard: marie katherine, does ron desantis have a point for cable networks the call the iowa r

barack hussein obama to the presidency in his speech, president truman warned that we cannot afford the luxury of a leisurely attack on discrimination. his words marked the genesis of the civil rights era, ringing out in congress, state legislatures, congregations living, rooms and city streets all around this great country. today we meet to keep truman's words alive and usher our children and their children into new era of civil rights. before dr. divulged his rosa parks took a seat on a bus and president obama swore his oath. president truman signed executive. 9981 and what the stroke of a pen. truman ended 172 years. 172 years. 172 years of a segregated american army. african-america conservative. every armed conflict the revolutionary war sacrificed, their lives for american promise. and i guess that's what a lot of young people looked at when they said black lives matter. the department of defense sacrificed black lives without, granting them equal honor. last sunday, my father celebrated his. 101st birthday and and. and i thank god mostly that he's still with it. there are obvious

nikki haley stabbed the republican party in the back by siding with barack hussein obama against theft from god. it kept us safe as a country. > not have the problems that other countries had. biden and his thugs are desperate to stop us because they know we are the only ones who can stop them. this is the greatest movement in the history of the u.s. never been a movement like this. never. yes, a very sad interview, actually, attorney general merrick garland, head of cricket joe biden's department of injustice actually stated that he wanted to speed up the so-called election integrity against presidentrump, and i say, if you wanted to do that, lighting they filed a lawsuit three years earlier? because they wanted to have it right smack in the middle of the election. you know it comes to? i think it will be delayed substantially because of all the things you see happening, including in georgia with a horrible case of fani willis. it is actually pronounced fawni willis. that is a terrible thing. so, merrick garland, i do not think he would be like this. to me, he was a very respected j

obama, right? the sort of birtherism clarnlgs t the idea he wasn't able to be president. he often called him barack hus husseinma because he know it would stoke the flames with his supporters and that's what he's doing with nikki haley, the woman he appointed to be the ambassador to the u.n. now he's dusting off a very familiar playbook. the thing about these kind of identity politics is that they have worked in the past for donald trump, so here he is facing a nikki haley who would be the first person of color, the first woman to win any state in a republican-nominating contest, he's really trying to cut her off at knees so that she doesn't win in new hampshire. last polls showed her warnings you know, five or six points of him, and so he is really bringing out everything to really dissuade voters from voting for her insinuating essentially that she's sort of a democratic plant, right, that those are her supporters and she isn't really one of you is what he is saying to those new hampshire voters. >> good point. alensia johnson is with us as well. trump is knocking haley for courting moderate and independent

. >> when trump was running around talking about barack hussein obama -- >> did you just roll the tape on the ted cruz? let me of insults. the guy is not, i don't think you discriminates and it is discrimination and insulting. and he's full-fledged. i >> don't know this for a fact, the person who wrote his remarks last night was not the same person who wrote this tweet. or that post. but we've talked about this before abby, nikki haley is faced some of the stuff in south carolina herself when she wasn't close races, of photos started circulating over father and his turban, in her inner indian dress. i don't have a doubt of this race maybe in this week if this race were to get really serious and close that you will see some of those same tactics here it is the invocation of race that she does not want to address. >> i gotta say, you mentioned ted cruz, we can't forget trump claimed that ted cruz was not a natural born citizen -- >> hughes cuban american. >> the thing on indian american, southeast asians. a big part of the republican party, he does that it is own peril. if he goes after

again, thinking that, you know, world war ii is upon us and he is running against barack hussein obama. that's one part of it. we've seen images of him over the past couple weeks. he's just not doing well, it doesn't seem, physically. then there is the second part of it, and that is, donald trump -- this was donald trump's closing statement. like, poor sean hannity. >> yup. >> sean hannity is like a dad that gets a baseball, and he puts it on a tee. he goes, come on, johnny, hit the tee. johnny keeps hitting his hand. >> yeah. >> sean hannity has placed more balls on tees, only to hear barack obama's name came up time and time again. he, other fox news hosts, have to correct donald trump and go, "no, you're running against joe biden." so let's put that on one side. on the other side, you've got a former president who republicans look like they're going to nominate, who is saying, "i really could get seal team six to assassinate my political opponents, and i have to have immunity." hannity goes, what is your closing statement for the voters? it's, "i need total immunity from everything,

barack obama. he would often emphasize barack obama's middle name which is hussein, he would also talk about the conspiracy theory that barack obama could not be president because he was not born in the united states. that seems to be an attack he used in the past and he is using it here again as they are seeing her creep up in the polls . >> it certainly does appear that way. thank you for that report. let's talk with jamaal simmons, former communications director for vice president kamala harris and also cnn political commentator sc cup. we have seen this before what the president is doing. >> more than just the obama narrative, we saw that in 2016 and we covered that. we remembered him eluding to marco rubio and ted cruz is ethnicity and questioning their candidacies. he also did it less memorably to ben carson. he brought up his religion, his seventh-day adventist religion. he went after carly fiorina's looks, anything he can use to scare his base into voting for him he did. he is doing the same thing with nikki. they love this. they want this to be a two- person race in new hampshire. they are thrille

barack obama. he emphasized barack obama's middle name was hussein, and he was the primary backer or conspiracy theoristthat birther theory that president obama could not be president because he was not born in the united states. not just of these attacks we are seeing but also the former president talking about nikki haley. last night, he accused her of trying to get democrats to infiltrate the gop primary. only republicans and independents can vote in the gop primary and the deadline to change your party affiliation was october 6th. nobody is changing their party affiliation at this time. >> jeff, how is nikki haley responding to these attacks by donald trump? >> reporter: in one respect, it is flattery because she knows that she is his leading rival in new hampshire. has not specifically responded to the item by item by item we were laying out. they are well aware of the fact that the entire kitchen sink is likely to be thrown at them by the time next tuesday comes around and the new hampshire primary. what she had a rally last night in new hampshire and said, she was pointing out some of her same ar

and there was barack hussein the obama, whose nickname wasn ch the deporter in chief. the former president deporteds over 3 million illegals and was showered with heckles. >> we're going to makesecu our country more secure, will strengthen our families. and most importantlyrethen our , we will live. >> most importantly, we will live up most most importantl uy, we will live up r to our character as a nation separate charad. i need your help there.t's that's that's that's exactly what we're talkingexaclkin aboui single day. >> what i'd like to do. no w, don't worry about it, guy. okay? okay, let me finish. let me let me say this. >> as you can see, a president has always been responsible foro his administration's bordelire i policies, not congress, not the vice president. the president. once upon a time, joe biden agreed. id youdid you make a mistake with those deportations? >> the president did>> the p tht thing that was able to be done. and how about you? i'm the vice president. united stateut you vics >> the vice pr. but the vice president became the president, broke

i wish you would have asked charles from north carolina how he refers to barack hussein obama and whethere refersormer president obama as president obama. i am guessing he did. you should have done that. but thing about the media sources that c-span uses, despite the fact that it seems overwhelming -- and i don't k the identity of all the callers self identified as much as you do, but it appears the independents call in more than either democrats or republicans. why not rotate independent to the top of e st. it is always d, r, i or r, d, i. you have proofhat i should be at the top of the list once every three months. i wish you would quote some media -- host:■ as far as the campaign itself, what is your thinking, particularly with events in new hampshire? caller: i think nikki haley is a smart woman. i think she is driven. but it is nothing but talking points with her. and she is trading on the fact that she is a woman, and she in the united states. and that gets her support from a lot of people who are concerned about white guilt. anderned about white guilt. we are the best country in th

. >> donald trump turning to her indian name, the old barack hussein obama trick.rs, remember, she's not one of us. >>> anand, you have a piece "the realbattleground of 2024 is emotion." you write, o of the strange dynamics of the trump era, as the right has beco more and more a movement of passion more than reason, appeal mor than policy solutions, the left has drifted the other way. today's electoral left is highly cerebral. it is spious of the politics of passion. it doesn't do emotional appeals. it doesn't have much of a role for music, for the body, for in-person communing in public spaces, for catchy slogans, for arresting vial if this were an age defined by policy qutis, that'd be one thing, but it is an age dene by big feelings, anxiety, fear, future dread, and a confusion among millions o people about who they will be on the far side of head-spinning change all around us, people are lost. not sure how to make sense of their place in a world of upheaval. in an era such as this, leaving the politics of emotions, of passion, to democrats is dangerous. so if t

nikki haley by her given name, a mangled version, the kind of thing he did with barack obama using his middle name, hussein, and he's also posted false conspiracy theories saying she is not eligible to run for president because her indian immigrant parents were not yet american citizens. she was born in south carolina. why do you think he is doing this? >> well, all i know is that i believe this election -- the primary election is going to be over after tuesday. president trump is leading in all 50 states. >> martha: please answer the question, sir. answer the question about why you think donald trump is doing that. >> i think it's politics, you know, joe biden launched his campaign a couple of weeks ago with a set of personal attacks on president trump. he talked about president trump. he talked about the lawfare they're trying to slow him down as a candidacy. he didn't talk about inflation. he didn't talk about violent crime in our cities. he didn't talk about the open border where we've got a massive invasion, and now we've had more fentanyl vests in vietnam in our country in four years. that's politics

trump was asking illegitimate questions about president obama's birth certificate and intentionally repeating again and again, barack hussein's saying is just noise or something that need to be called out? >> i think it's probably a bit of both. i think anybody that is going to campaign like this needs to be called out. as you said, this started ten years ago, fifteen years ago. this is the tried and true donald trump playbook. i also have no doubt that he's trying to throughout out different things on truth social to create issues and distractions and whatnot to try to get through new hampshire with a victory. this always has to be called out. this isn't how anybody should be campaigning in either party for the nomination let alone the presidency. >> a lot of people are looking at this, eugene as kind of a political strategy, right, a two-fer, rallying his base, weakening the candidate he now sees as his biggest threat, but is there something bigger at stake here, as you see it, and as you report it? >> well, i mean, it definitely is part of a strategy, a strategy that we saw him employ in iowa. he certainly wants to turn

barack obama, who between three people organized armed conflicts in yugoslavia in 1999, about 400 victims, in afghanistan in 2001, more than 111 thousand victims, in iraq in 2003 , 223 victims. saddam husseinevic, did any of these guys get an arrest warrant, did any of them get punished, did any of them get charged? no, one even received the nobel peace prize, obama. wake up, my beloved midshipman krivoruchka told me during our discussions, sailor mikhalkov, look for fools in the mirror, he is instead fools said a different word, rougher, but more precise, and now i want to tell you, look in the mirror for those whom swordsman krivorochka suggested i look for, you know this joke, what is the similarity between piggy, macron. with wonderful music, painting , with wonderful cinema, with wonderful nature with wonderful people, musical, sympathetic, hospitable, this country was called georgia, in 1801 it joined russia, because it was on the verge of complete extermination by the persians and turks. i didn’t remember how he was, with what appetite, he ate his tie, gave an interview to the bbc tv channel, saakashvili unleashed a bloodbath against the little one. abkhazia and south ossetia, which
