but if you were to do it, monica lewinsky gave a riveting ted talk last year. i watched it three times through. there is a story about what happened to -- i'm most familiar with hers, but there is a story to tell. i just don't think trump is the right messenger to tell the story. monica lewinsky gave a ted talk, she talked about how her life essentially stopped as a young intern in her 20s. there is a story to tell about what happens when you sort of get snarled in the wreckage of the clintons and their human mistakes but trump at this hour in the campaign about what we usually give the countdown, 35 days out -- >> 39. >> i don't know that he's able to make it, and this race is so structural. he needs to win over the kinds of voters who may end up having sympathy for her if they're reminded of this chapter. >> governor? >> nicolle, it's hard for giuliani and gingrich to make this an issue. they come into the fray as very poor surrogates on the issue so i think if donald trump -- if i was advising donald trump i'd say talk about nothing but substantive issues. >

she called monica lewinsky -- >> not like how he treats women all the time? [ applause ] >> but that's talked about all the time, whoopi. that's up constantly. it's the treatment of women. >> so that's creak, trump campaign manager talking today on "the view" saying, you know -- reprimanding donald trump for talking about alicia machado's weight. >> she's entitled to that. and let me point out that donald trump's campaign manager is a mother with four little children and if he were not very understanding and appreciative of working mothers she wouldn't have that job. >> okay. let's move on. i've got to move on here. >> wait, do we have to move on? because i mean i just enjoy watching her speak because the more she speaks she confirms to any potential voter out there why you literally have to question your sanity when you think about what donald trump says. the notion that a man who has embraced his offensive rhetoric somehow didn't say his offensive rhetoric it -- i sometimes think i -- >> wait a second it's mrs. clinton who's running the cynical political ad

in your reporting you reached out to monica lewinsky but she didn't want to talk, correct?> i did and monica lewinsky did make a comment in 2014, she wrote an article for "vanity fair" saying that she found it troubling that hillary clinton blamed herself and blamed monica, at least in private conversations, for the indiscretion with bill, but that's all we've heard from her. she's kept a low profile and i don't expect we will hear from her. >> sean boburg, a fascinating piece, thank you for being on. >> thank you. >>> breaking details on the deadly train crash in hoboken, new jersey, we know it has killed one woman and more than 100 people, 108 people have been injured according to the governor of new jersey. what went on behind the controls? that's ahead. smoking with chantix. by the time i was 30, i said "that's it, i'm a smoker for life." i wanted to be a non-smoker and i did it thanks to chantix. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced my urge to smoke some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostil

monica lewinsky has decided to take her name out of the spotlight. she only came back recently because she's kind of embraced it in some way and has talked about bullying. the idea you're going to drag monica lewinsky, it's going to make hillary clinton look like she's the victim. that's what happens time and time again. the woman is the victim. it's because the woman is the victim. >> and doug, for those who were not here or don't remember history, people were pretty sympathetic towards hillary clinton during that time and to mark's point that may make them even more so this time? >> exactly. not only were they sympathetic, but it's just really irrelevant to the hillary clinton scandal. where trump did okay in the debates was his populous economic message the first 20 minutes of the debate. you would think now he would be focused on that instead of playing these, you know, new york post, new york daily news tabloid games but he's gotten so addicted to the new york tabloid culture that he thinks moving the news cycles as he did with gennifer flowers

monica lewinsky.ter a campaign memo circulated on wednesday urging associates to mention lewinsky and other women the former president reportedly had affairs with while suggesting hillary was complicit in smear campaigns against his accusers. some of trump's allies have said it's not the best strategy for him, but plenty of his surrogates are going there. >> if you look at her being an enabler really in the '90s and really attacking these women, it goes against everything that she now tries to spout be as a candidate for president. she'll say and do anything. those are barack obama's words, not mine, she'll say and do anything to become president of the united states. >> i find it so interesting that there continues to be this conversation about what he has said when you look at what she has done. gennifer flowers, paula jones, monica lewinsky, my goodness. >> she didn't just stand by him, she attacked monica lewinsky. and after being married to bill clinton for 20 years if you didn't know the moment

she didn't just stand by him, she attacked monica lewinsky.fter being married to bill clinton for 20 years, if you didn't know the moment monica lewinsky said he violated, then you're too stupid to be president. >> if this is the road donald trump goes down, i imagine they've thought about this even with the voices telling donald trump to do this. in the 1990s, when republicans went after bill clinton on these issues, they tried to beat him in an election, they tried to impeach him. it backfired on them politically. what is the reason? did they have an argument for why it would turn out differently to dredge up those same issues now? >> when i asked my sources about this, the argument they say is secretary clinton has high favorable numbers among many groups of women. trump needs to perform better among women, and that he just can't always make the positive case. he needs to, in some way, tar her reputation, her persona with a lot of these swing voters, so dredging up these issues from the past could, if not lift his numbers, could hurt her ow

and they're really secretly rooting for him to play the l lewinsky card. even though it's a little uncomfortable, they think if he goes after bill clinton, he walks right into the same trap that he belittles women. >> i completely agree. the clintons, again, know how to play this baby. >> they do. >> also about the clintons, there's been a lot of discussion, particularly among reporters about the crowd sizes that clinton is having. they're not quite as big as -- >> 1,200. compared to 3,000 for somebody else. >> but what people do not realize is that these are very strategically located events. so clinton had a smaller crowd size today in des moines, but it was directly next door to an early voting center. so those 1,200 people, you can bet if they were there to cheer on clinton, they were -- >> you say they want smaller crowds? >> they want -- >> i know! >> they want those crowds -- >> are we getting spun here? go ahead. >> my podcast on tuesday, i have an interview with rob reiner. he had great things to say about you, with chris, and your interview of do

. >> gennifer flowers, paula jones, monica lewinsky, my goodness. >> gloria steinem is here to respond. >> every single online poll had me winning by sometimes a landslide. >> the real polls telling a very different story. and full-court press. >> if you don't vote, that's a vote for trump. >> dems issue a strong warning about protest votes. >> the stakes are far too high to take that chance. >> when "all in" starts right now. >> good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. at this hour donald trump is about to kick off a rally in waukesha, wisconsin, focused on, quote, law and order. his second rally of the day. speaking in iowa this afternoon trump lashed out at hillary clinton once again claiming she somehow lacks the stamina to be president and referenced clinton leaving that september 11th memorial service when she had noom yanchts you see all the days off that hillary takes? day off, day off, day off. all those day offs and then she can't even make it to her car. isn't it tough? all those day offs. right. do you ever see her chart? she won't be campaigning today. she won't be cam

. >> i covered paula joan and jennifer flower and monica lewinski. i was not alone had.tion coverage. it is not like the press hasn't touched it before. there is a feeling unless they are forceded to do it because trump introduced it in the campaign. the country had been through that and that was bill clinton. although some people say hillary clinton is an enabler or crit otherwising the women involved and the problem for trump is, does he want this about it. and it will be the spotlight that springs back to his own three marriages and affair with marla maples and it would take the entire come pain to the gutter. and opposite can occur like monica lewinski issues and they sympathized with hillary clinton. >> it was less than two years after the monica lewinski scandal that led to the impeachment of her husband and she was elected senator in new york. you look at this tweet. >> and time you see a story about p me and sources said, do not believe it. there are are no sources. they are made up lies. possibly a reference to some of those unnamed sources on his campaign roach

the idea you're going to drag monica lewinsky, it's going to make hillary clinton look like she's the victim. the woman is the victim. >> and douse has, for those who were not here or don't remember history, people were pretty sympathetic towards hillary clinton during that time and to mark's point that may make them even more so this time? >> exactly. not only were they sympathetic, but it's just really irrelevant to the hillary clinton scandal. where trump did okay in the debates was his populous economic message the first 20 minutes of the debate. you would think now he would be focused on that instead of playing these, you know, new york post, new york daily news tabloid games but he's gotten so addicted to the new york tabloid culture that he thinks moving the news cycles as he did with jennifer flowers will put he hillary clinton on the defense it. may have worked a decade ago but she's heard a lot of that and gotten hardernned over the year and we saw a very cool and effective hillary clinton and she's not going to be unnerved by the res recollection of lewinsky. >> the clinton

don't even think about talking about monica lewinsky. i can guarranty you, donald trump, if you keep talking about misuniverse and you talk about monica lewinsky, you are going to lose and hillary's going to win. >> i know that is what you really want to say. we have to keep it clean here, folks. really, i mean what you're saying joe, what many of his supporters feel right now. because it's so, it was, i should say close, within his grasp. look at poll numbers heading into the debate. we'll get real sense of things tonight, again 6:00 p.m., right here, tune into fox business because you will see the pole numbers. kneel, -- neil i think he will suffer. it woken change the base. there were peopled in the middl, why wasn't he prepared for the debate. >> reality this is symptom of a bigger disease, frankly. this is what you would expect from someone who is tempermentally unfit to be president. listen, when he went off in the debate about rosie o'donnell, and then spent the next couple of days talking about miss up verse, this is a guy who is

by midsummer, monica lewinsky agreed to testify and supply evidence in exchange for immunity.ll. it was the middle of august in the early morning hours before he was to be deposed when bill clinton confessed. >> he let her know that was actually true, and she was devastated by it. she felt betrayed. she felt lied to. she felt that she had been defending him all this time and unknowingly, she was lying. >> indeed i did have a relationship with miss lewinsky that was not appropriate. in fact, it was wrong. >> i don't know what got her through there, but being in the white house, subject to all that scrutiny. >> hillary was desperate to escape washington, d.c. the morning after admitting the affair, bill clinton and his family left to go on vacation. the world was watching. >> you know, she was angry. she was upset. it's a iconic photograph with chelsea in the middle and i think at that point, that's who was keeping them together. chelsea. there is no program. >> it's the president's birthday. >> the president and first lady have shown little affection following the grand jury te

didn't just stand by him, she attacked monica lewinsky. after being married to bill clinton for 20 years, if you didn't know the moment that monica lewinsky said that bill clinton violated her and she was telling the truth, you are too stupid to be president. liz: this is heating up, we're monitoring a trump rally in michigan. we will let know what you he has to say. >>> back to the sordid past fight. when you think about it, it's a sordid and unseemly distraction, we have the worst discovery since the great depression. take a look again at the debates. you will find mrs. clinton never said anything, the slightest inkling that anything had gone wrong in president obama's america. she used, broad, banal and ambiguous strokes like making college debt free or broad-based inclusive growth, a big distraction to the serious issues at hand. national security, securing borders and economic growth. chief political correspondent at the conservative review deneen borelli and eric schiffer joins me now. what do you think of the fight and how it's brea

she described this at hillary clinton's time with the monica lewinski, that she was a loony toon.ey cover that with the same intensity as the miss universe story? >> and he calls her quote miss piggy and miss housekeeping, they were running that as facts. i thought they were just saying how important fact checking is with the debates. and she is claiming this ludicrous claims as fact. when she says he called her miss housekeeping because of her accent, guess what, there is another latina with a hispanic accent, yours here working closely with mr. trump and he has shown nothing but respect and honor towards me. so nobody believes you. >> i think it is fair for the media to talk to juanita and kathleen and paula and dolly and gennifer flowers, why would that be out of balance if we go back 20 years here? >> oh, it is not out of bounds. >> when i have the clinton women on the show i will be treated just like the media is treating miss venezuela. >>. >> oh, absolutely not. you know that. >> you be the host. >> sure. since 1956, how many republican candidates have the new york times an

after being married to bill clinton for 20 years, if you didn't know the moment monica lewinsky said that bill clinton violated her that she was telling the truth, then you're too stupid to be president. >> speaking of that, rudy, you know, again, the pot calling the kettle black. [ applause ] your marriage didn't survive it, you know. your marriage didn't survive, so you should keep your mouth closed. and again, calling people names like stupid, you know, i hate to do it because i'm trying to be a grownup but look in the mirror, man. look in the mirror. >> you know something, rudy giuliani publicly humiliated donna hanover by announcing that he was dumping her on not -- don't bring this -- this is why i said to donald trump don't bring this stuff up because you are just as liable. honey, she's still married to her husband. [ applause ] >> what's strange to me -- exactly. what's strange to me is the republican party is always supposed to be the party of family values, and traditionalists -- and as joy often reminds everyone, i'm a traditionalist, a stand by your man through thick and

champion and that's a joke and encouraging those surrogates to say hillary clinton attacked monica lewinsky and attacked paula jones and gennifer flowers. they are enabling this story to live longer than it should. conservative talk radio is getting upset about this. including an iowa talk radio hostaying donald trump doesn't have the ability to let go, that he keeps digging himself into a hole. as you said, chris, when you're digging a hole, stop digging. >> the question i have to ask is a very political one. it's not a moral one in this sense. baghdad bob, we laugh about him because he was the iraqi official who kept say they're winning a war they're clearly losing. king jo kim jong-un said they won the olympics in north korea. people, you lose all credibility when you say things are not true when they are. he lost the dpe baebate. he has a problem with this young contestant, she was 18, an immigrant from venezuela, he's going to be the bad guy and that's the way it's going to be and he thinks he can win the argument? >> let me give you a counter vision. donald trump has been doing this t

. >> with that woman did to monica lewinsky. she attacked monica lewinsky and after being married to bill clinton for 20 years, if you didn't know the moment monica lewinsky said bill clinton violated her, you are too stupid to be president. >> she suggested trump should pull out of the debates because he was not being treated fairly. he walked that back and then came this odd moment on fox news. donald trump was asked this question. clinton was trying to get under your skin a couple of times. did she? he started reliving where they attacked him for saying demeaning things about a lateen in the miss universe contest. his defense, she got fat. >> shoefs a miss universe contestant and ultimately a winner who they had a tremendously difficult time with. >> i didn't know that story. >> she was the winner and she gained a massive amount of weight. it was a real problem. we had a real problem. not only that, but her attitude. >> that was this morning and there were three hosts that appeared almost speechless. as bad as the debate was,

attack hillary clinton for attacking monica lewinsky. wrote an op-ed on this today and talked to women who have stayed in marriages despite their husband's cheating. and that's not going to go over well with them. 50% of the country is divorced. how is exactly this a winning strategy for donald trump? >> you are completely right, carol. there are some issues that are hard for secretary clinton to address, like her e-mail scandal. but when it comes to the past indiscretions of president clinton, i don't think that's hard for her to address for the reasons you stated. she has to go out there and say, all marriages go through, you know, rocky periods. they got through it. they're still together. and she's still here. i'm not sure why the trump campaign thinks that's going to be an effective line of attack. i do think as phil reported that one of the reasons the trump campaign is circling this memo saying they have to attack, attack, attack is because trump learned early on, one of my colleagues reported about this several weeks ago for "the

and the way that hillary clinton responded to people like gennifer flowers or people like monica lewinsky. she did say insulting things, fair game? >> i think in presidential politics anything is fair game. >> is there an equivalency? >> well, i don't know. i wouldn't make an equivalency on this because i do think that hillary clinton has received questions herself from people there audiences last year, i think it was maybe up in new hampshire where a voter asked her about her behavior related to her husband so it has come up, it's something she has faced but you can see the republican hand wringing around donald trump's foreshadowing that he may, indeed, inject bill clinton's infidelities into the campaign and they were like that did not work for us in the '90s. the larger point here, poppy, is that if you look at all the coverage out of the debate, his comments about trade, his comments about being a change agent and that she's been on the stage for nearly 30 years and there are problems that are present for the voters in their minds and yet he's talking about bill clinton's infidelitie

. >> i would have been talking about what she did to monica lewinski, trying to paint her as insane young woman when was intern and president of the united states, her husband, disgraced this country with what he did and she didn't just stand by him but attacked monica lewinski. and after being married to bill clinton, you didn't know that monica was telling the truth, you're too stupid to be president. >> i agree with mr. trump shouldn't have it up. but logically i understand the point that rudy jule awny i is making. thr swaufl assault survivors who are not listened to. i logically understand the point and think he's making that point but i don't think donald trump should have brought it up on the debate stage. did what he did expertly. >> do you wish donald trump had done better on the birther issue or question of the tax returns? both probably obvious they might come up? >> i'm glad. hope that's the end. the question today, did he miss opportunities? i think so but think he purposefully did. if this is all hillary clinton can do and last night is it, we still. >> you think he pourpful

own controversial comments about women encouraging trump's surrogates to drop names like monica lewinsky. >> presumably want more women and feel any obligation if trump brings up your husband's past to speak out against a spouse's indiscretion being brought into a campaign like this. >> look, he can say whatever he wants to say as we well know. we have seen it in real time over the last many months and i'm going to keep running my campaign. >> reporter: trump is running by his claim that he did a service to the country by leading the birther movement. >> i am the one who got him to produce the birth certificate and i think i did a good job. >> reporter: he's proud of his effort while reiterating clinton questioned his birth certificate when she ran against him in 2008. >> she tried and she was unable to do it and i tried and i was able to do it. i'm very proud of that. >> reporter: all this as trump's foundation faces renewed scrutiny saying "washington post" reporting that the charity never obtained a certification that new york requires before charities can solicit money from the publi

some republicans today quoted warning trump to keep lewinsky and the others out of it.p in new hampshire. watch how donald trump handled it. >> you didn't mention bill clinton and his past affairs. you may do this in the second debate? >> she was very nasty to me. and i was going to do it and i saw chelsea sitting out in the audience and i just didn't want to go there. i thought it would be too disrespectful. i didn't want to do it. we'll see what happens. i didn't want to put it there. it's a hard thing to say in front of somebody's daughter. >> if it does come up in the next debate do you think your past marital history is fair game? >> i guess. but it's a lot different than his. that i can tell you. we have a situation where we have a president who was a disaster and he was ultimately impoached over it in a sense for lying. and so we'll see whether or not we discuss it. >> you're not worried abyour past history at all? >> no not at all. >> joining me katrina pearson and robert zimmerman. good to see you both. let me start with you, robert because you saw the trace re

she called lewinsky a looney tune. >> i can tell you the think about donald trump that i hope -- he's surrounded by strong women. he has employed thousands and thousands of women. >> let me ask you something about hillary. >> i am the first campaign manager. >> reporter: you can see kellyanne conway is following the similar voice that hillary clinton is not for women. and actually promoted women in high positions and compensated them well. this is an issue that they want to find a way to mitigate the losses with women. right now they're having a real problem with suburban white women. in order to win in november, there is an acknowledgment that they need to find a way to connect with women and have them see donald trump as less of a blustery out spoken and a serious politician. that's what they were hoping to do. they were caught flat footed with the alicia machado incident and immediately after the debate and trying to say look, donald trump may say that he wants women in the workplace and wants them to have equal pay and child care expenses but take a listen to the words he uses and

there were certainly a lot of abusive wome abusive -- abuse of women and you look at monica lewinsky and paula jones and many of them. >> something seemed to pull her done and i wonder if it's trump surfacing it again. during this campaign hillary clinton will have a complicated relationship with the clinton past. >> when we return, the girl who would run for president. >> hearing dr. king for herself, it awakened her to the idea there was a revolution happening in the country. both on the track and thousands of miles away. with the help of at&t, red bull racing can share critical information about every inch of the car from virtually anywhere. brakes are getting warm. confirmed, daniel you need to cool your brakes. understood, brake bias back 2 clicks. giving them the agilitto have speed & precision. because no one knows & like at&t. but when we brought our daughter home, that was it. now i have nicoderm cq. the nicoderm cq patch with unique extended release technology helps prevent your urge to smoke all day. it's the best thing that ever happened to me. every great why needs a gre

clinton once referred to lewinsky as a nar cystic loony tune. predated the white house years. in 1992 when gennifer flowers claimed she had an affair with then-governor bill clinton, hillary clinton described flowers as a gold digger. >> you get your picture on the front page of every newspaper and you're some failed cabaret singer who doesn't even have much of a resume to fall back on. >> reporter: when other women made allegations of sexual assault by mr. clinton, one of them telling her story in "penthouse" magazine, stephanopoulos quoted her saying, we have to destroy her story. soon after the campaign hired a private detective to look into 24 separate allegations. asked why he held back on the clinton sex scandals, trump said he had a lot of respect for chelsea and said he didn't want to say what he was going to say. when the reporter followed up with the question, which is? which is maybe i'll tell you at the next debate. bret, stay tuned. >> we will. thank you. >>> a homeland security official tells the associated press hackers have targeted the voter registration syste

for most people, that is an implication of the monica lewinsky scandal and addressing -- that startso drag you away from the issues around e-mail and money and the foundation around all the stuff trump -- >> i think he has become as good as talking about the issues as he is anything else in framing or in reinforced by press releases and i think the clinton campaign wouldn't knowledge that -- wouldn't knowledge -- would acknowledge that those are things that can hurt her because they go back to the old corrupt ways of washington. he cannot be tied to washington. if he could do the impeachment and the sex stuff that george walker bush did against gore -- he used to say, i would raise my right hand and restore honor and immediately since then i think it might dovetail but there is no way trump would be disappointed at talking about impeachment. he will start saying explicit things to overshadow the message. i think that if he can stand and money thing -- that is one of his best chances to win. >> if you remember, i know you do -- if you think about the way that barack obama handled this

special prosecutor who became an independent counsel who became ken starr, who ultimately found monica lewinsky in all of this led to the impeachment of bill clinton over something that had absolutely nothing to do with whitewater. and, you know, i think a lot of people in the white house at that time thought that hillary clinton had just been a little more open, his would have been written to family. we have seen the same impulse over and over again in her career. often things that on the face of them are not damaging. with regard to donald trump, you wrote a story this week with the headline, never wrong, never sorry, never responsible. guest: yes, and again, that is why -- this was after donald trump's announcement that he believed barack obama was born in this country. it was what? a 42nd statement. i do think that there is still a lot more there to be asked and answered. into ghent, stuff that -- it is not just about the past. it does really get to something fundamental about donald trump's character. host: the first debate may be as many as 100 million viewers will be watching. how critic
