for him back home, that was priceless and all they had to do is be at the trump hotel where he later threw a big party at the trump home honoring the iranian defense minter who had oversight over programs from which he was seeking business. he later entered into a cooperation agreement with the romanian state-owned defense contract and firm that could have been worth as much as $200 million of contracts. he did ultimately get the contracts. there again you see the acts afforded to folks just being at trump properties can be helpful both in the business sense and in interactions with the u.s. government. >> clarify for us briefly where this stands concerning larger concerns about his finances. a lot of people said this adds to the concern he is a national security threat because of his finances and his debt. >> well, you certainly do see that. he is making money to some extent off these properties. overall, he is losing money. he has something of a home field advantage in that when he actually goes to these properties and people who want to gain access to him because of his position as

in fact, they lost money working for the government, $55 million alone on the trump hotel in d.c. number three, trump made aged to the ukraine dependent on its health investigating the biden family. false. that claim went proof at the impeachment trial. number four, trump is somehow a white supremacist. at this man is a white supremacist. >> he continues to paddle in bigotry and behave like a racial arsonist. it's because there's not a lot there besides racism, if he doesn't have racism, he has nothing. >> laura: false, offensively. he forcefully denounced it moments ago. let me be as clear as possible on this point, president trump and his supporters are not racists, and the charge of racism has become the last batch in of political assassins were desperate to avoid defending their true agendas. from criminal justice reform to winning economic policies, trump has done more for african-american and latino voters than any president in my lifetime. democrats are reviving this old for one reason. they have no policies that really work, literally none that would raise the standard of l

>> well, first of all, he was going to have a celebration at the trump hotel, and the trump hotel is smack-dab in the district of columbia. the district of columbia has some rules which say you can't have occupancies of more than 50 people. it is true that there are limits on the number of people you can have at gatherings. if the trump campaign were not to abide by that, they could lose their liquor license. it's a serious thing for a hotel. so i wouldn't be surprised if mayor bowser has been having some conversations with them. i also think that they may be deciding what kind of event they want to have. i remember -- you were there, brianna, when hillary clinton had this huge event last time. how was that when you were in the room for that? >> yeah, that's right. >> it wasn't so great. so i don't know whether they have just decided being at the white house is the best place, but i do know there's clearly an issue with having it at the trump hotel. >> gloria borger, thank you so much. wonderful to see you, as always. >>> next, el paso county, texas is trying to shut down for two wee

the trump business entity that holds that secret chinese bank account is called trump international hotels management. that entity owns something called thc china development, it's a trump company with a chinese bank account. that company, mysteriously, according to "the times" showed a huge spike in revenue out of the blue in 2017, right after trump was sworn in as president. the revenue spike was according the "times," $17.5 million, that's more revenue that had come into that company in the previous five years combined. but trump became president. all of a sudden there was this huge new unexplained influx of money into that company with this chinese bank account. it comes in from who knows where, but it goes out as cash into the president's pocket. after that $17.5 million windfall from nowhere once he became president, president trump took that out as cash. he took $15.1 million of it out for himself in 2017 once he was president. the "times" also reporting that fbi agents appeared at the offices of a company that was used at the business address for chinese buyers who spent millions o

may goy haberman, she reports that president trump has called off plans to appear at the trump international hotel in washington on election night and is likely to stay at the white house instead. what does that mean? joining us now cnn's senior political commentator david axelrod, a former senior advisor to the obama campaign, also with us abby phillip. this is an interesting wrinkle, abby, because president trump and his campaign had been fundraising off of the idea that they were going to go to president trump international hotel for this big party on election night. in fact, in the fundraising solicitation according to maggie it said four more years, this is going to be absolutely epic in all caps and now they're canceling that. what should we make of this? >> well, one thing i should say is that our colleague kevin liptak had reported last week that the president had planned to spend most of the night at the white house, but was going to stop by this election night party that was being planned over at the trump international hotel. now it's a little up in the air as maggie is reporting, she's

at 19 ironically now he counts himself among that group but it also included a business to the trump hotel down from pennsylvania avenue in washington where he had planned to meet with supporters and then the president was scheduled to travel to florida for a rally one of many that have been held this week on saturday he was scheduled to travel to wisconsin another pivotal battleground state just like florida the president needs to win in order to win reelection with me now we know that at least in the case of the rally in florida it has been canceled whether or not the one on saturday in wisconsin will continue continue with the president appearing remotely is an open question but for now the official word of the updated daily guidance from the white house is that in fact the president has virtually cleared his schedule as we know he's going to quarantine along with the 1st lady so the president and his doctor indicated that business king proceed as usual that seems to be something of a reassurance to the american public it's not going to be business as usual we know from the public calen

president can count himself among that group and then the president is scheduled to travel to the trump hotel and later to sanford florida for a make america great again rally why is florida important it's a pivotal state a battleground state as they're called the president needs to win reelection the following day he was scheduled to travel to another battleground state wisconsin it's unclear if the president will try to make that appearance at least virtually but we know the plans for traveling have been put on hold the other big question in all of this is how many of the staff members around president trump even is immediate family members beyond the 1st lady may have been exposed may be at risk we know that the u.s. president was at the presidential debate on tuesday where there were a number of prominent top aides helping him for a pair. for that debate including hope x. the question becomes now if the vice president has been exposed that would be a national security issue given the fact of the continuity of government so already it can be presumed that the activation has gone into place

trump and ruffin co-owned a hotel in las vegas. e of the business paid trump's side about $21 million. what "the times" has added with this story is more detail about the timing. what we don't know is where the money went. there are a lot of reasons donald trump needed money in 2016. his businesses weren't doing that well as they are not now. second, he was pumping money into his own presidential campaign. third, he had to settle a $25 million lawsuit with the new york attorney general over all the sins committed by trump university. so i had always wondered if this payment was sort of ruffin helping trump pay off the trump university settlement. "the times" raises another possibility, which is trump put the money into his campaign, which may violate, tax law and campaign finance law. >> just quickly, because we have to go, but here is trump's defense. this is what rich people do -- we move money around, we find loopholes in the tax law, we preserve land when we fell like we can't develop on it, we figure it out because we have peop

america great again rally that is now been canceled as well as meeting with some supporters at the trump hotel the only thing that remains on the president's schedule now is a round table that will as we suspect beat it taking place over the telephone and that that is happen. with ironically. seniors who are affected by cope with diet change now this will include the u.s. president all right now i know you mentioned there that he said he's going to continue with this judy's but what does the quarantine of the president look like if we you know does he not come into contact with other people does he do it only virtually are there are a select group of people that contact with him. well it's very clear from a medical standpoint that he no longer can come in contact if you're following the centers for disease control's protocol that would mean that you are isolating yourself so that no one else is a for the risk presumably he can come in contact with the 1st lady. it's not clear if other members of his family for example his daughter of a car or a son's whether or not they will go into quarantine

house will be the setting for the where the president is.he will not be in new york city , or the trump hotel in washington. it is a fluid situation, based on his comments this morning, but it looks like the white house, just like it was for the republican national convention, could be the setting for election night. now we will bring in dr. peter navarro. his trade something the president will hit in the final few days? dr. navarro: it is the key to unlocking the midwest -- the midwest battleground states. if you go across, for example, michigan, wisconsin and pennsylvania. you understand if you are a blue-collar worker, that joe biden voted for nafta in 1994, he voted for china and the wto. memory, institutional from you and your family, of how we lost over 70,000 factories and 5 million jobs to joe biden's nafta and his courtship of china. and at the president has, as you know, been the toughest president ever to stand up to china. and we have the banking of the rank-and-file, as we did in 2016, but there are other things going on with that. go ahead. >> you said he has been tough on china

what that means to the trump company overall, that's more money than two trump hotels combined produceim over that period so it's not the majority of the trump organization's income but bigger than two hotels combined. >> is what you found in these new documents the total amount that the federal government paid to the trump organization or documents you are trying to get a hold of to shed more light on the transactions? you haven't seen the other agencies but are the other agencies willing or capable of providing the documents? >> capable but not willing. two agencies in particular, the state department so we sued the state department to get the records they have that show how much they paid trump's company. they have told us in court they have at least 450 pages of records but they want to release 2 of those pages before election day. they haven't provided a reason other than just backlogged and the white house with a travel budget hasn't released anything and who knows what it is paying? they're not -- they're exempt from public records laws so i can't sue them to find out what trump

he won't be at the trump hotel in washington. that seems to be a fluid situation. based on the president's comments to repoers this morning. but it looks like the white house just like it was for the republican national convention, could be the setting for election night. now let's bring in dr.eter navarro, the presisident's top advisor onrade. . he joinedhe trump administration early on, working on trade policy. he's an antagonist of china if i mate say, dr. navarro. great to have you here. >>> mr. costa, who you are you, sir? >> doing well. >>> you look marvelous in your office there. >> how do you think trade plays into this campaign? i know you're a policy man. but you u pay attention to trad a political issue as well. is this something the president is going to hit in the final few days? >>> trade is one of the keys to ununlocking the midwest battleground states. if you go across, for example, michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania, you understand if yore a blue collar worker that joe biden voted for navetta in -- nafta in 1994 and joe biden voted for china and the

you know, donald trump makes our own secret service stay at trump hotels. why? so he can pocket a few bucks off of it. donald trump is someone that thinks, hey, he wants to cut a deal with china. how about if china gives copyright protection to his daughter so that she can start hawking her products over there. and he brings in other people. he says that he is going to do the very fast special attack on the vaccines. who does he bring in? he brings in someone that literally owns millions and millions and millions of dollars in drug stocks, stocks in drug companies that are trying to manufacture the vaccine and that is the guy that is going to recommend whether this company or maybe the company he owns a lot of stock in gets billions of dollars from the federal taxpayers to help develop a vaccine. i pick those as examples. it is all the way through that administration. he was a grifter before he came to the white house. and while he is in the white house, he has just done more grifting. >> the wealth tax and the tax issues you are talking about as legislation do n

as for election night, trump originally was kicking around the idea of holding a watch party in his hotelsn washington, d.c. it sounds like he just might keep it at the white house. we want to thank you very much. the president has his sights set on turning minnesota writer. biden wants to flip it back to blue, and progressives have a wish list for a biden. jacqui heinrich is checking it out, live for milwaukee. hey jackie. >> good evening. four days out from the election, joe biden made his first three state stop in a single day of the general election. with bowls tightening, there is work to do and little time left. wednesday, democrats reportedly sounded the alarm for week turnout in black and young voters in florida's biggest county. producing turnout rates lower than 2016. then in thursday, biden's lead slept three points in a poll that had him head by 11 earlier this month. it now trump surrogates are storming the states, following the president's trip yesterday which included a meeting with the wrapper and remarks for biden's mass incarceration. according to the "miami herald," a tr
