in washington, guy cecil, from the super pac priorities usa.ng on some reporting that i wasn't able to finish up on before we came on air. i'm hoping you can help us out. a source familiar with the buying for your super pac says you are scaling back in three states, in virginia, where you already scaled back your buy, and then in colorado and pennsylvania. three states that public polls show hillary clinton way ahead. is it true that your super pac is scaling back your buying in those states? >> we are. as you know, we are constantly making assessments about how to make sure we are spending our money efficiently and effectively. it's why we expanded our campaign into north carolina. we are looking at other states as well. but as of right now, we are significantly reducing our spending in those three states. >> you are reducing just to be clear you think her need is big enough you don't need to be on the air there? >> that's correct. we are constantly assessing where we are. we take this on a week by week basis. we are not taking anything for gr

guy cecil is here. van jones, bruce lavell, anna navarro. lefrpz get we'll get to them in just a moment. our jason carroll is also there in the audience at the speech there this evening in wisconsin listening to donald trump. do we have jason? jason it was a tough law and order speech. how did supporters respond there? >> don, this was a speech not just about law and order, i'm sure you realize this is a speech that also made an attempt to reach out to the african-american community. we've heard donald trump speak on a number of occasions, but never in such strong terms in terms of reaching out to the african-american community. there were several times when we heard him mention that hillary clinton and the democratic party in his words panders to the african-american community, takes advantage of the african-american community, takes advantage of poor communities, and that he is now the answer going forward to bring not only safety back to communities like milwaukee but bringing back economic development to communities that in his words, on

our colleague did an interview with guy cecil who runs the super pac for hillary clinton, and guy told him they are going after trump on two things. other advertising, one is that trump is dangerous, that he can't be commander-in-chief, that he is too unhinged, and that is the dangerous lane, and that speaks to the russia stuff. then there is the so-called jerk lane, the stuff related to the khans. trump has in the last week or so basically given them all sorts of new fodder, which they have turned into a new ad to go after trump on the two things they want to go after him on, too dangerous on foreign policy and that he acts like a jerk. john: one of trump's main political assets has been, when it comes to fighting terrorism, he's the strong man. he has correctly diagnosed that he has done well by adopting those postures. it is problematic for someone whom people have reasonable questions about in their capacity as commander-in-chief, to have that political asset, and then be in a situation where you are saying things where across the board, not just democrats or republicans, the echo

tim miller, guy cecil, thank you both. happy to have you on, always. stay tuned.best of with all due respect" after this. ♪ ♪ mark: time to talk a little "ye old stratergy." we're joined by john burnett, an adviser to the new york republican party. also here, michael feldman, a democratic strategist, the former senior adviser and traveling chief of staff to vice president al gore. just a little housekeeping. you are for hillary clinton. who are you for? john: the republican party. mark: are you voting for donald trump? john: absolutely. mark: he is from new york. john: absolutely. definitely. mark: we want to do a little strategy swap. trump campaign manager kellyanne conway acknowledges that they are behind. if you are giving advice to donald trump, what would you tell them? the building blocks of a comeback? michael: discipline has been said often, but it cannot be said enough. if mr. trump can focus on key messages and not do the clinton campaign's job for them -- donny: which 2 messages? michael: this is not a specific message, but a broader strategy. he needs

joining me now is priorities usa co-chair guy cecil.ing me. >> your reaction to the news is going to spend and it it's in a state where you're pulling money out. >> i'm not surprised about florida or ohio. i am surprised in north carolina. and there's no question he's got to play in more places. and pennsylvania is as good as any. i also think it's notable. he's not in colorado, virginia, nevada, iowa, new hampshire. all places that are critical if he's to have any chance to be successful in november. the other thing to note, about 85 to 90% of our buy in pennsylvania is still in place, and we'll continue to monitor how the election goes once we get past labor day. >> so you're open to spending more if trump tightens? >> sure, we have reservations starting on september 20th in 12, in pittsburgh, and we'll continue to take a look at whether or not he keep those reservations. it's certainly not a matter of taking the election for granted, but rather acknowledging that trump has a particular problem in colorado, in virginia, certainly in p

corey lewandowski is here, guy cecil, van jones, kellyann conway, anna navarro. we've been been sitting here taking copious notes. jason carroll is also there in wisconsin listening to donald trump. do we have jason? jason, it was a tough law and order speech. how did supporters respond there? >> reporter: well, don, this was a speech not just about law and order but i'm sure you realize, too, this was a speech that also made an attempt to reach out to the african-american community. we've heard donald trump speak on a number of occasions but never in such strong terms in terms of reaching out to the testimony community. there were several times when we heard him mention that hillary clinton and the democratic party in his words panders to the african-american community, takes advantage of the african-american community, takes advantage of poor communities and that he is now the answer going forward to bring not only safety back to communities like milwaukee but bringing back economic development to communities that in his words once again have been taken advanta

so guy cecil, go ahead, i've seen you reacting. >> sometimes silence is the better part of valor. i think this is probably a good example of that. i think context is important here. you have a republican candidate who has brought in 1,100 workers from overseas to staff husband businesses, complain about workers coming in to take african-american jobs, he could have easily hired them in his workplace. you have someone lecturing us about crime, you have someone that's trying to speak about the african-american community but left out the fact that his own company was marking applications for apartments, noting which ones were african-american before outright rejecting them. yes, words are great. whether you like the speech, you dislike the speech, the fact of the matter is that donald trump has had an entire career of dividing people, of attacking african-americans. just yesterday or a couple of days ago he talked about how some communities, some communities in pennsylvania were going to engage in massive voter fraud. you don't have to be a genius to know what communities he was talk

guy cecil co-chair from priorities usa, ron brownstein senior editor for the atlantic, and kansas secretary, a donald trump supporter. great to see you. taking tv ads off the air in three weeks in september in virginia, colorado and pennsylvania. that is a strong move. where are you putting that money? >> i think it's important for some perspective to realize that 85 to 90% of our reservations are actually still in place. there's no question that donald trump faces some particular challenges in places like colorado and virginia and for that matter pennsylvania. so we're looking to expand our operations on the ground in key starts, investing in turnout operations in places like florida and ohio. we're significantly expanding our digital operation targeting younger voters. i think after labor day i wouldn't be surprised if you see us moving into expansion states where we think this race is becoming closer and closer going into november. >> like georgia, like utah? >> there's no questions that places like arizona an georgia have gotten closer over the course of time. we'll look at how the race

guy cecil. and with us republican strategist ana navarro.o begin with, i want to unveil a brand new ad from priorities usa the super pac supporting clinton and before we do i want to reiterate to any democrats or republicans campaigns super pacs that if you have a real ad backed by real money you are more than invited to come on the show and we will broadcast your new ad here and discuss it as we are going to do with this one. this priorities ad is $4.5 million buy airing in nine battle ground states starting tomorrow and i guess coincidentally it features a prisoner of war from vietnam. let's watch the ad. >> i got shot down over vietnam and spent 11 months in pow camp. what donald trump said about our members of the military being captured, is a disgrace. >> he is a war hero because he was captured. i like people that weren't captured. >> when you fire over enemy territory, odds might be against you being able to come home. donald trump doesn't understand the weight of sending americans into harm's way. he is unfit to be president. >> prio

guy cecile, co-chair and chief strategist of priorities usa, a pro-clinton super pac. rk preston, cnn politics executive editor. welcome to all of you. guy, even just to quote jeff zeleny talking about how even democrats are frustrated. yes, the clinton foundation has done extraordinary things for people around the world. but at the end of the day, do you think that hillary clinton and her response to all of this has been robust enough? >> yes. and let me just say i'm not frustrated by their response. i'm frustrated by the coverage of the attack. do people really think that they were trading favors in order to meet with the secretary of state or that it was inappropriate for her to meet with a nobel prize winner in economics? or mechaniclinda gates? the answer to that is no. the focus of this on appearance instead of the facts, in this case 11,500,000 people saved that would have otherwise died from hiv/aids. jeff laid it out. clean drinking water. thousands of farmers in west africa. work all around the united states. whenever we reveal the facts, not the appearance, b

guy cecile back with us today, hillary clinton supporter, co-chair and chi co-chair.imone sanders, democratic strategist, formerly with bernie sanders campaign. alice stewart, cnn political commentator and republican strategist and david chalian, our cnn political director. david chalian, let me begin with you. as many. americans i think for the first time are familiarizing themself with this movement called alt right, why do you think she's honing in on this and why today? >> well, listen. both candidates are pretty clear in what their strategy is. they want to make their campaigns all about the other guy or they want to make their opponents an unacceptable choice. they think that is what serves them best. we are going to hear so much more in the next 75 days from each candidate about their oboeo opponent than we are lily e li hear about their own policy proposals. hillary clinton's been fund-raising the last many days. obviously donald trump has been much more aggressive this week than we have seen in the past is keeping up a battling message against hillary clinton

like to cecil b demille epic, cast of thousands, greatest story ever told, unlimited budget, they can't find a director. most of germany's great directors were in concentration camps. they find a guy named herbert who is sort of a spielberg. he makes movies like indiana jones, muscular, action, he marries action with drama so they hire him and he proceeds to make the most expensive film ever at the time. fortunately for us everything that could go wrong with the movie goes wrong. it runs over budget, one of the actors gets pregnant by one of the leading men, german soldiers wreck the set. they want to fill the sinking of the titanic at night because the titanic forget might be germany is under mandatory blackout because of the inventory bombing. they made a huge ballyhoo like studio lights. goebbels it hitler give an exception, letting them film at night, the set gets bombed. everything goes wrong. hitler is desperate, goebbels is desperate, the movie is over budget, something happens was he arrives onset and everything is going wrong. the director goes nuts, he curses hitler, goebbels of the nazi party, the gestapo is hiding onset, he is summoned to berlin and they tell him. they
