[chattering]
2
00:00:03,630 --> 00:00:06,850
- [Man] I guess turning on
the AC would be impossible.
3
00:00:06,890 --> 00:00:09,680
- [Cameraman] That brown
leather thing is...
4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:10,500
- [Soundman] Marker.
[beep]

[clapperboard clapping]
6
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:12,460
- My hair okay?
7
00:00:12,510 --> 00:00:13,330
- [Director] Yeah
8
00:00:13,380 --> 00:00:14,160
[clap]
9
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:15,030
- Uh...
10
00:00:15,070 --> 00:00:16,250
- This is a lovely room.
11
00:00:16,290 --> 00:00:17,900
This is one of the
best for an interview.
12
00:00:17,950 --> 00:00:21,080
And it's the people's house,
so we might as well use it.
13
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:22,690
[clapping]
14
00:00:22,730 --> 00:00:24,260
- We are on the fourth floor
of the New York Times building.
15
00:00:24,300 --> 00:00:28,260
- Stupid is what stupid does,
as Forest Gump says, right?
16
00:00:28,310 --> 00:00:29,440
- Is this fake news?
17
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,260
[woman laughs]
18
00:00:31,310 --> 00:00:33,050
- This is not a complete
dumper on him, right?
19
00:00:33,090 --> 00:00:34,530
- Check one, two, three.
Check one, two, three.
20
00:00:34,570 --> 00:00:36,010
Check one, two, three, four.
21
00:00:36,050 --> 00:00:37,920
- I dare you to put
this in the documentary.
22
00:00:37,970 --> 00:00:39,190
- [Director] I
might give it a go.
23
00:00:39,230 --> 00:00:41,010
- Tensions beginning
to run high. [chuckles]
24
00:00:41,060 --> 00:00:41,930
- Run the tape back.
25
00:00:41,970 --> 00:00:42,750
[tape rewinding]
26
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,840
[clapping]
27
00:00:43,890 --> 00:00:45,580
- [Man] We're getting started!
28
00:00:45,630 --> 00:00:48,110
- You tell me when you're
ready. I'm always ready.
29
00:00:51,110 --> 00:00:54,680
- Well, like most people,
I didn't take it seriously.
30
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,120
- When the entire country
was laughing at him,
31
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,030
they were mocking him...
32
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,380
- Donald Trump has been saying
33
00:01:01,430 --> 00:01:03,120
that he will run for
president as a Republican,
34
00:01:03,170 --> 00:01:04,990
which is surprising,
since I just assumed
35
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,430
he was running as a joke.
36
00:01:06,470 --> 00:01:09,430
[crowd laughing]
37
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,000
- There was just no
serious thought given
38
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,310
to him as a candidate.
39
00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:15,000
- It's obvious that
the Republicans think
40
00:01:15,050 --> 00:01:16,000
Trump's gonna lose.
41
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,140
- Well, I can imagine it
in a Saturday Night skit.
42
00:01:19,180 --> 00:01:20,790
- Utterly unqualified
43
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,880
- He's an embarrassment
to this country.
44
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,490
- Hillary belongs
in the White House.
45
00:01:24,540 --> 00:01:26,190
Trump belongs on my show.
46
00:01:26,230 --> 00:01:28,320
- Right now we have
Hillary as about a 75
47
00:01:28,370 --> 00:01:29,410
or an 80% favorite.
48
00:01:29,450 --> 00:01:30,320
We have different versions
49
00:01:30,370 --> 00:01:31,630
of the forecast.
- That high?
50
00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:32,500
- You're not gonna be
president. All right?
51
00:01:32,540 --> 00:01:33,720
[audience laughing]
52
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,810
- So discombobulated.
So unconventional.
53
00:01:35,850 --> 00:01:38,030
- This is a joke, and
it's an absurdity.
54
00:01:38,070 --> 00:01:39,850
- Donald Trump will
never be elected
55
00:01:39,900 --> 00:01:41,250
President of the United States.
56
00:01:41,290 --> 00:01:42,990
- I don't think there's
any way that Donald Trump
57
00:01:43,030 --> 00:01:44,900
gets elected President
of the United States.
58
00:01:44,950 --> 00:01:46,820
- Donald Trump is not
gonna be President
59
00:01:46,860 --> 00:01:48,080
of the United States.
60
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,300
- You know, you guys
sound like two kittens
61
00:01:51,340 --> 00:01:54,260
sitting on a train track,
looking down at a train,
62
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:55,870
thinking, "That train
got a little bit bigger
63
00:01:55,910 --> 00:01:58,000
a few seconds ago, but
I'm sure it's gonna stop.
64
00:01:58,050 --> 00:01:59,350
Hey, it got a little bit bigger,
65
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,180
but no way it's
gonna keep going.
66
00:02:01,220 --> 00:02:02,010
Hey, it-"
67
00:02:02,050 --> 00:02:03,440
Splat.
68
00:02:03,490 --> 00:02:06,270
Listen, if something is
getting bigger and bigger
69
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,450
and bigger every day,
70
00:02:08,490 --> 00:02:11,100
it's probably going to
continue doing that.
71
00:02:11,150 --> 00:02:14,500
[dramatic electronic music]
72
00:02:14,540 --> 00:02:17,590
[electronic beeping]
73
00:03:47,290 --> 00:03:52,290
- 2015 U.S. was really a space
of more than one America.
74
00:03:52,340 --> 00:03:55,160
[soft electronic music]
75
00:03:55,210 --> 00:03:56,080
- [Reporter] Breaking
news coming in now
76
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,690
from Charleston, South Carolina,
77
00:03:57,730 --> 00:03:59,600
where there are reports that
eight people have been killed
78
00:03:59,650 --> 00:04:01,040
in a shooting at a church.
79
00:04:02,130 --> 00:04:05,090
- We as a country will have
to reckon with the fact
80
00:04:05,130 --> 00:04:07,480
that this type of mass
violence does not happen
81
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,920
in other advanced countries.
82
00:04:10,220 --> 00:04:11,480
- There was this growing gap
83
00:04:11,530 --> 00:04:13,970
between rich and poor Americans
84
00:04:14,010 --> 00:04:16,710
and it was really one
of the major challenges
85
00:04:16,750 --> 00:04:18,320
facing the country.
86
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,800
- Sometimes I just don't
buy groceries every months,
87
00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:23,710
and I live eating a meal a day.
88
00:04:26,110 --> 00:04:27,020
- We automated away
89
00:04:27,070 --> 00:04:28,810
four million manufacturing jobs
90
00:04:28,850 --> 00:04:31,590
in Michigan Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
91
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,160
and those communities
have never recovered.
92
00:04:34,940 --> 00:04:38,510
- Today, we can say
in no uncertain terms
93
00:04:39,510 --> 00:04:43,470
we've made our union
a little more perfect.
94
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,300
[light electronic music]
95
00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:49,520
[helicopter whirring]
96
00:04:49,570 --> 00:04:52,000
- [Reporter] Orlando
became the tragic scene
97
00:04:52,050 --> 00:04:55,660
of the worst mass shooting
in American history.
98
00:04:58,180 --> 00:04:58,970
[train creaking]
99
00:04:59,010 --> 00:05:00,010
[car honking]
100
00:05:00,050 --> 00:05:02,540
[train rattling]
101
00:05:02,580 --> 00:05:04,840
[crowd cheering]
102

[stark electronic music]
103
00:05:09,020 --> 00:05:11,330
[crowd shouting]
104
00:05:11,370 --> 00:05:13,890
- You killed that man!
105
00:05:13,940 --> 00:05:18,860
- Huge country, 340 million
people, all Americans,
106
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:22,340
but pretty distinct
cultures regionally
107
00:05:23,470 --> 00:05:27,520
and drastically different
political sensibilities.
108
00:05:29,820 --> 00:05:32,390
So you had people
who were pleased
109
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,610
with the performance
of President Obama.
110
00:05:34,650 --> 00:05:37,530
[upbeat electronic music]
111
00:05:37,570 --> 00:05:39,490
- And that was a
winning campaign.
112
00:05:39,530 --> 00:05:41,100
You just felt-
113
00:05:41,140 --> 00:05:44,660
Millions of people at these
rallies, every age, every race.
114
00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:46,410
You felt the swell of excitement
115
00:05:46,450 --> 00:05:47,840
about this historic candidacy.
116
00:05:47,890 --> 00:05:51,670
- It was a creed written
into the founding documents
117
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,020
that declared the
destiny of a nation.
118
00:05:55,070 --> 00:05:56,150
Yes, we can.
119
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,550
[crowd cheering]
120
00:05:57,590 --> 00:06:00,420
There was just incredible
enthusiasm for Obama,
121
00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:03,420
enthusiasm very rarely
seen for a politician.
122
00:06:03,470 --> 00:06:05,250
He offered a message
of hope and change
123
00:06:05,290 --> 00:06:07,640
that electrified
the Democratic base,
124
00:06:07,690 --> 00:06:09,820
and they turned out in
big numbers for him.
125
00:06:09,860 --> 00:06:14,560
- And CNN can now project that
Barack Obama, 47 years old,
126
00:06:14,610 --> 00:06:18,180
and will become the president
elect of the United States.
127
00:06:18,220 --> 00:06:20,960
[crowd cheering]
128
00:06:23,140 --> 00:06:24,180
- Walking down the street,
129
00:06:24,230 --> 00:06:26,310
people were just
screaming, "Obama!"
130
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,100
[energetic electronic music]
131
00:06:32,410 --> 00:06:36,590
- What Republican voters
believed to their core
132
00:06:36,630 --> 00:06:39,630
was that Barack
Obama had succeeded,
133
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,370
that he had set out
to change America,
134
00:06:42,420 --> 00:06:45,860
and he did, and he wrecked it.
135
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:47,380
[somber electronic music]
136
00:06:47,420 --> 00:06:50,340
- You had a few
different contingents
137
00:06:50,380 --> 00:06:51,990
that were starting to maybe look
138
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,690
for a way to coalesce
around something
139
00:06:54,730 --> 00:06:58,000
to replace president Obama,
knowing that he'd be leaving.
140
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,650
- I think Liberals
and Conservatives
141
00:06:59,700 --> 00:07:03,000
were both looking for someone
who would go to political war
142
00:07:03,050 --> 00:07:04,830
for the issues
that we care about.
143
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,180
Obama pushed this
country way to the left.
144
00:07:07,230 --> 00:07:08,840
Are you gonna keep that ground?
145
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,660
Or are you gonna
cede that ground?
146
00:07:10,710 --> 00:07:12,800
And to just elect somebody
who was gonna come in
147
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,890
and be kind of a caretaker
of the status quo?
148
00:07:14,930 --> 00:07:17,020
No way. Nobody wanted that.
149
00:07:17,060 --> 00:07:17,840
[crowd cheering]
150
00:07:17,890 --> 00:07:19,320
- Hello, Iowa!
151
00:07:19,370 --> 00:07:22,070
[crowd cheering]
152
00:07:23,020 --> 00:07:24,720
I'm back!
153
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,380
[crowd cheering]
154
00:07:27,420 --> 00:07:31,730
- Well, what Democrats
believed as gospel
155
00:07:31,770 --> 00:07:35,340
was that Barack Obama
had permanently changed
156
00:07:35,380 --> 00:07:37,170
the composition
of the electorate.
157
00:07:37,210 --> 00:07:39,560
[stark electronic music]
158
00:07:39,610 --> 00:07:43,170
This ascendant coalition
of African-Americans,
159
00:07:43,220 --> 00:07:46,350
of Latinos, of women,
of Millennials,
160
00:07:46,390 --> 00:07:50,700
was going to turn out in
the same levels that it had
161
00:07:50,750 --> 00:07:54,970
for president Obama's
two successful elections.
162
00:07:55,010 --> 00:07:55,880
[crowd cheering]
163
00:07:55,930 --> 00:07:56,800
- The Democratic party was like,
164
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,190
"You know what we should do?"
165
00:07:59,150 --> 00:08:00,230
Hillary Clinton.
166
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,370
- Hillary Clinton.
- Hillary Clinton.
167
00:08:01,410 --> 00:08:03,020
- Hillary Clinton.
168
00:08:03,060 --> 00:08:04,280
She is running for president.
- I am running for president.
169
00:08:04,330 --> 00:08:05,500
- This was like the
re-re-re-introduction
170
00:08:05,540 --> 00:08:06,940
of Hillary Clinton.
171
00:08:06,980 --> 00:08:09,030
Most people had already
formed an opinion about her,
172
00:08:09,070 --> 00:08:10,290
and that's hard to change.
173
00:08:10,330 --> 00:08:11,640
[crowd cheering]
174
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,510
- There had never
been a candidate
175
00:08:13,550 --> 00:08:15,160
in the history of
the United States
176
00:08:15,210 --> 00:08:18,990
who had been as famous for
as long as she had been.
177
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,560
- She's always prepared, she
always does her homework,
178
00:08:22,610 --> 00:08:24,350
and she works very, very hard
179
00:08:24,390 --> 00:08:27,170
not to make a story of herself.

I would never want to

on the Reform Party ticket.

presidential candidate in mind?

gotten quite there yet.

I'll bring back our money.

353
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:51,050
Yeah, there are more things,
but race was a major issue,
354
00:15:51,100 --> 00:15:53,270
and people will say
it's not, but it was.
355
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:54,840
He started chanting and,
356
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:59,840
and the rhetoric was
shrill about race.
357
00:15:59,890 --> 00:16:02,150
- When Mexico sends its people,
358
00:16:02,190 --> 00:16:04,110
they're not sending their best.
359
00:16:05,070 --> 00:16:08,330
They're bringing drugs,
they're bringing crime,
360
00:16:08,370 --> 00:16:09,420
they're rapists.
361
00:16:09,460 --> 00:16:12,810
And some, I assume,
are good people.
362
00:16:12,860 --> 00:16:15,430
- Remember, after Mitt
Romney lost in 2012,
363
00:16:15,470 --> 00:16:17,510
most of the Republican
establishment thought
364
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,860
it was because he
alienated Hispanic voters
365
00:16:19,910 --> 00:16:21,740
with self-deportation.
366
00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:23,820
Kellyanne was one of
a very small group
367
00:16:23,870 --> 00:16:25,740
of Republican professionals
368
00:16:25,780 --> 00:16:28,530
who thought it was
actually the opposite,
369
00:16:28,570 --> 00:16:31,350
who thought that you could
take a populist message
370
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,310
against immigration,
not more liberal,
371
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,530
but more conservative
on immigration,
372
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:39,670
and you could get not just
Republican primary voters
373
00:16:39,710 --> 00:16:42,840
but a lot of blue-collar,
white, working-class voters,
374
00:16:42,890 --> 00:16:45,670
particularly in the Rust
Belt, the upper Midwest.
375
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,980
- I will build a great, great
wall on our southern border,
376
00:16:50,030 --> 00:16:53,160
and I will have Mexico
pay for that wall.
377
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,070
Mark my words.
378
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:55,600
[woman cheering]
379
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,770
- Are you concerned about
alienating the Hispanic vote
380
00:16:56,810 --> 00:16:58,900
by saying that Mexico
is not our friend
381
00:16:58,950 --> 00:17:00,510
and we're building a wall?
382
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,910
- If it's good for me or bad
for me, I don't think of that.
383
00:17:02,950 --> 00:17:04,520
I think of saying
the right thing.
384
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,090
And people have to be
alerted to the fact
385
00:17:07,130 --> 00:17:09,870
that we are getting some
really bad characters
386
00:17:09,910 --> 00:17:11,480
coming into this country.
387
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,870
- How can you succeed when
you say things like that?
388
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:14,830
- Well, you can't-
389
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,700
Again, Gayle, if
the question is,
390
00:17:15,750 --> 00:17:16,880
how can you become president,
391
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,400
you can't by saying
things like that.
392
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,880
- Are you racist?
393
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,540
- I am the least racist
person that you have ever met.
394
00:17:23,580 --> 00:17:25,230
- He was fearless.
395
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,590
When Donald Trump
denounces Mexicans,
396
00:17:28,630 --> 00:17:30,720
and people are outraged,
397
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:35,030
and he loses the PGA
Championship from
398
00:17:35,070 --> 00:17:36,940
does he back down?
399
00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:38,900
No.
400
00:17:38,940 --> 00:17:41,030
He doubles down.
401
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,430
- Donald J. Trump is
calling for a total
402
00:17:43,470 --> 00:17:48,390
and complete shutdown of Muslims
entering the United States
403
00:17:48,430 --> 00:17:51,830
until our country's
representatives
404
00:17:51,870 --> 00:17:55,480
can figure out what
the hell is going on.
405
00:17:55,530 --> 00:17:58,180
[audience cheering]
406
00:17:58,220 --> 00:18:00,050
- It is, in fact, the case
407
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:03,790
that you have a big chunk
of racists in this country.
408
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,320
But, worse than that, you
have a big chunk of people
409
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:09,710
for whom racism is
not a disqualifier.
410
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,190
And Trump understood that.
411
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,240
- [Audience] Build that
wall, build that wall!
412
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,290
- Build that wall, build
that wall, build that wall,
413
00:18:19,330 --> 00:18:23,550
build that wall, build
that wall, build that wall,
414
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,640
build that wall,
build that wall!
415
00:18:26,690 --> 00:18:28,600
[intense music]
416
00:18:28,650 --> 00:18:31,430
- He realized this
wasn't about ideology.
417
00:18:31,470 --> 00:18:34,300
It was about who
was the angriest.
418
00:18:34,350 --> 00:18:37,180
It was about who was the
angriest at Obama, specifically,
419
00:18:37,220 --> 00:18:41,310
and who could embody that
anger the most authentically.
420
00:18:41,350 --> 00:18:42,880
And so it didn't
matter that he wasn't
421
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,490
a conventional conservative
on all kinds of metrics.
422
00:18:45,530 --> 00:18:47,750
What the base was really
looking for was just,
423
00:18:47,790 --> 00:18:50,620
who could be the most
opposed to Barack Obama?
424
00:18:53,100 --> 00:18:55,930
- Were it not for the
transformative love
425
00:18:55,980 --> 00:18:57,370
of Jesus Christ?
426
00:18:57,410 --> 00:19:00,330
- What makes our country
exceptional? Faith and freedom.
427
00:19:00,370 --> 00:19:02,200
It's no exaggeration to say
428
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,290
we're at the most critical
point in our nation's history.
429
00:19:05,330 --> 00:19:08,080
- The greatest nation
the world has ever known.
430
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:09,600
- I see a great
country on the verge
431
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,080
of its greatest century.
432
00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:13,820
- A new, American century.
Thank you, God bless you.
433
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:14,690
[crowd cheering]
434
00:19:14,730 --> 00:19:16,260
God bless the United States.
435
00:19:16,300 --> 00:19:17,740
- Donald Trump was blessed
436
00:19:17,780 --> 00:19:20,830
with the biggest field in
modern Republican history.
437
00:19:20,870 --> 00:19:22,050
[intriguing electronic music]
438
00:19:22,090 --> 00:19:23,920
- Oh, there's no
doubt in my mind
439
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,310
that the Trump
campaign was delighted
440
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:30,270
by the fact that there were
so many other candidates.
441
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,580
- This was possibly the
most qualified group
442
00:19:33,620 --> 00:19:36,500
of Republican
candidates in history.
443
00:19:36,540 --> 00:19:37,840
- Every single one
of them who ran
444
00:19:37,890 --> 00:19:39,630
thought there was
at least some chance
445
00:19:39,670 --> 00:19:42,460
that they could get
lightning in a bottle
446
00:19:42,500 --> 00:19:43,680
and win this thing.
447
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,590
- Ted Cruz is my man.
448
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:46,980
He fits the bill.
449
00:19:47,030 --> 00:19:48,990
- They thought that you
go out, you get your base,
450
00:19:49,030 --> 00:19:51,860
you're gonna fight
this out in the states.
451
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:54,030
Jeb Bush is gonna
get X constituency,
452
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,300
Rubio's gonna to get
this constituency,
453
00:19:56,340 --> 00:19:57,730
and so forth and so on.
454
00:19:57,780 --> 00:19:59,210
[crowd cheering]
455
00:19:59,260 --> 00:20:02,220
- They were prepared and
responsible and ready to lead.
456
00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:05,310
They were not prepared to play
the lowest common denominator
457
00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:07,220
every day to maximize attention.
458
00:20:09,050 --> 00:20:11,230
- So, along comes Donald Trump.
459
00:20:11,270 --> 00:20:14,620
And what Donald Trump
understood is that-
460
00:20:14,660 --> 00:20:18,360
- Republicans were not looking
for the smartest candidate
461
00:20:18,410 --> 00:20:20,500
or the most
sophisticated candidate.
462
00:20:20,540 --> 00:20:23,980
They were looking for a gut
puncher, a street fighter.
463
00:20:24,020 --> 00:20:26,150
[crowd shouting]
464
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,890
- Rubio, total lightweight.
465
00:20:27,940 --> 00:20:30,810
And little mouth on
him. Bing, bing, bing.
466
00:20:30,850 --> 00:20:34,160
- A con artist will never
get control of this party!
467
00:20:34,210 --> 00:20:36,820
- Jeb Bush is a
low energy person.
468
00:20:36,860 --> 00:20:39,650
- I think Donald Trump is
trying to insult his way
469
00:20:39,690 --> 00:20:41,780
to the presidency, and
it's not gonna work.
470
00:20:41,820 --> 00:20:45,480
- Do you believe Senator Ted
Cruz is a natural-born citizen?
471
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,390
- I don't know, to be honest.
472
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,790
- Donald Trump
alleges that my dad
473
00:20:49,830 --> 00:20:51,880
was involved in
assassinating JFK.
474
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,710
- And he's like this,
"And we will... [gasping]
475
00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:58,190
I need water. Help
me, I need water!"
476
00:20:58,230 --> 00:21:00,320
- This man is a
pathological liar.
477
00:21:00,360 --> 00:21:02,930
- And he knew that
all he had to do
478
00:21:02,970 --> 00:21:06,150
was seem different from
the typical Republican,
479
00:21:06,190 --> 00:21:09,460
and he would naturally
draw the public's interest.
480
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,160
[audience laughing]
481
00:21:16,940 --> 00:21:18,340
Unbelievable.
482
00:21:18,380 --> 00:21:19,640
- [Reporter] Trump's latest
poll numbers matching
483
00:21:19,690 --> 00:21:21,990
his larger-than-life
personality.
484
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,210
In a reversal from when
he entered the race,
485
00:21:24,260 --> 00:21:27,870
Republicans increasingly
believe Trump has staying power.
486
00:21:27,910 --> 00:21:30,870
But the question remains, can
Trump turn his poll numbers
487
00:21:30,910 --> 00:21:32,180
into actual votes?
488
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,660
- Because his name
ID was so high,
489
00:21:35,700 --> 00:21:38,620
because he was such a
spectacle from day one
490
00:21:39,710 --> 00:21:41,660
that, in a giant field,
491
00:21:41,710 --> 00:21:43,620
his name bumped to
the top of polling,
492
00:21:43,670 --> 00:21:45,800
and then it sort of
feeds off of itself,
493
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,230
because, once he's the leader,
494
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,370
oh, maybe I'm maybe
I'm for the leader too.
495
00:21:50,410 --> 00:21:52,110
Yeah, sure, that sounds
interesting. Donald Trump.
496
00:21:52,150 --> 00:21:55,070
[stark music]
497
00:21:55,110 --> 00:21:59,420
- In reality television, the
villain is always the star.
498
00:21:59,460 --> 00:22:00,860
All the way back
to American idol.
499
00:22:00,900 --> 00:22:03,640
You know, Simon, he was rude
and mean. He's the star.
500
00:22:03,690 --> 00:22:06,650
That's a trope in reality TV.
501
00:22:06,690 --> 00:22:08,040
[crowd shouting]
502
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,820
- Who would you rather
have negotiate with Iran?
503
00:22:10,870 --> 00:22:13,170
Trump or Jeb?
504
00:22:13,220 --> 00:22:14,570
- [Audience] Trump!
505
00:22:14,610 --> 00:22:16,260
- But here's the
problem with Rubio.
506
00:22:16,310 --> 00:22:18,830
When you sweat that much.
507
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,440
[audience laughing]
508
00:22:20,490 --> 00:22:22,270
"Hello. Hello.
509
00:22:22,310 --> 00:22:24,010
Can I have some water?"
510
00:22:24,050 --> 00:22:25,100
And Putin's sitting there,
511
00:22:25,140 --> 00:22:26,400
"What the hell kinda
stuff is this?"
512
00:22:26,450 --> 00:22:29,670
This is not exactly a
poker player, folks.
513
00:22:29,710 --> 00:22:32,020
Not exactly a poker player.
514
00:22:32,060 --> 00:22:34,930
She said, "I never expect to
hear that from you again."
515
00:22:34,980 --> 00:22:36,680
She said, "He's a
pussy." That's terrible.
516
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,500
[audience yelling]
517
00:22:37,550 --> 00:22:38,370
Terrible.
518
00:22:43,330 --> 00:22:46,160
- He had this reality
TV experience,
519
00:22:46,210 --> 00:22:49,510
which I contend people
watch for the humor.
520
00:22:50,430 --> 00:22:54,650
It's not jokes, but they just
laugh at what's happening.
521
00:22:54,690 --> 00:22:59,610
I think that, with
Trump's candidacy,
522
00:22:59,660 --> 00:23:02,480
that the news became comedy.
523
00:23:02,530 --> 00:23:05,700
- This is a TV star
who knew how to work
524
00:23:05,750 --> 00:23:07,360
the medium of television.
525
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,400
And because most of the
Republican candidates
526
00:23:09,450 --> 00:23:12,450
were cowed into thinking they
shouldn't expose themselves
527
00:23:12,490 --> 00:23:15,980
too much, Trump sucked
up all the airtime.
528
00:23:16,020 --> 00:23:17,590
- Why don't you
turn your camera?
529
00:23:17,630 --> 00:23:20,240
Show 'em how many people
come to these rallies.
530
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:21,940
Turn 'em! Go ahead, turn 'em!

00:23:22,810 --> 00:23:23,590
Go ahead!

[audience cheering]
534
00:23:33,340 --> 00:23:34,170
Brutal.
535
00:23:37,390 --> 00:23:38,910
- Immediately thought
that Donald Trump
536
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,650
had climbed over the wall from
the world of entertainment
537
00:23:41,700 --> 00:23:43,480
into the world of politics.
538
00:23:43,530 --> 00:23:44,870
That's not what he did.
539
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,790
He pulled the world of
politics over the wall
540
00:23:47,830 --> 00:23:49,440
into the world of entertainment.
541
00:23:51,010 --> 00:23:53,190
I'm Mike Huckabee. I'm
delighted to be on this stage.
542
00:23:53,230 --> 00:23:55,060
- I'm Jeb Bush, and
I believe America's
543
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:56,800
on the verge of its
greatest century.
544
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,320
- I'm Ted Cruz.
545
00:23:58,370 --> 00:24:00,890
I'm the son of an
Irish-Italian mom.
546
00:24:00,930 --> 00:24:02,630
- My wife, Jeanette, and
I are the proud parent.
547
00:24:02,670 --> 00:24:03,980
We've been married 17 years,
548
00:24:04,020 --> 00:24:05,900
and we're the proud
parents of four children.
549
00:24:05,940 --> 00:24:10,120
- I'm Donald Trump. I wrote
"The Art of the Deal."
550
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,470
I say, not in a
braggadocious way,
551
00:24:13,510 --> 00:24:15,560
I've made billions and
billions of dollars
552
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,690
dealing with people
all over the world.
553
00:24:17,730 --> 00:24:20,910
- The thing that makes
Trump the most unique
554
00:24:20,950 --> 00:24:24,040
is not any one element
of his personality,
555
00:24:24,090 --> 00:24:25,780
his skillset, his history.
556
00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:28,830
It's the lethal
combination of them.
557
00:24:28,870 --> 00:24:32,530
I've referred to this
as a talent stack,
558
00:24:32,570 --> 00:24:33,790
or, in this specific case,
559
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,010
you could call it
a persuasion stack.
560
00:24:36,060 --> 00:24:37,540
It's a bunch of skills that,
561
00:24:37,580 --> 00:24:38,970
if you put them together,
562
00:24:39,020 --> 00:24:41,500
you would say each of
these individual skills
563
00:24:41,540 --> 00:24:43,760
is not the best I've ever seen,
564
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,590
but almost nobody
has this combination.

[soft electronic music]
567
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,380
- Donald Trump took center
stage in that first debate
568
00:24:53,420 --> 00:24:56,380
in early August, 2015 and
never lost center stage.
569
00:24:56,420 --> 00:24:59,170
- Positioned on the stage by
how they stand in the polls.
570
00:24:59,210 --> 00:25:01,300
In the center of
the stage tonight,
571
00:25:01,340 --> 00:25:03,430
businessman Donald Trump.

[audience cheering]
573

- When Donald Trump
raised his hand and said
574
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,920
that I might not support
the nominee, oh, I just...
575
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,660
- Can I see hands?
576
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:16,050
Who is unwilling tonight
to pledge your support
577
00:25:16,100 --> 00:25:19,010
to the eventual nominee
of the Republican Party?

[audience booing]

00:25:21,060 --> 00:25:21,880
Mr. Trump.
580
00:25:26,410 --> 00:25:29,630
- People aren't watching
these primary debates
581
00:25:29,670 --> 00:25:31,980
to really learn
about the candidate.
582
00:25:32,020 --> 00:25:33,720
It's a show. It's a TV show.

[audience applauding]
584
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:37,380
- Mr. Trump...
585
00:25:37,420 --> 00:25:39,900
- He was in this
situation with Megyn Kelly
586
00:25:39,950 --> 00:25:43,120
that I don't think anybody
could have escaped from
587

If they were a standard
politician with a

don't like fat pigs, dogs,

[audience laughing]
594
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,400
- [Moderator] No, it wasn't.
595
00:26:03,270 --> 00:26:07,190
- The Trump method is
not to deny everything.
596
00:26:07,230 --> 00:26:10,890
It's to own a little piece
of the terrible thing.
597
00:26:10,930 --> 00:26:12,590
- Everyone on stage
with him that night
598
00:26:12,630 --> 00:26:13,890
got the memo too late
599
00:26:13,940 --> 00:26:15,460
that we were playing
a different game.
600
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:18,590
- You had serious
policy debates in 1960.
601
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,330
56 short years later,
602
00:26:20,380 --> 00:26:22,290
you don't have serious
policy debates anymore,
603
00:26:22,340 --> 00:26:24,990
because the phone changed
everything, right?
604
00:26:25,030 --> 00:26:26,910
Because what happened is
the phone shortened up
605
00:26:26,950 --> 00:26:28,340
everybody's attention span.
606
00:26:28,390 --> 00:26:30,390
Trump understood
that, "I'm in this
607
00:26:30,430 --> 00:26:32,390
and I'm out of this
thing in 30 seconds.
608
00:26:32,430 --> 00:26:34,260
That's gonna show up on
everybody's media page.
609
00:26:34,300 --> 00:26:36,610
That's gonna show up on
soundbites in the news
610
00:26:36,650 --> 00:26:38,440
and I'm going to beat the guy
controlling the narrative.
611
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:39,350
They're not."
612
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,660
- We don't need a weak person
613
00:26:40,700 --> 00:26:42,700
being President of the
United States, okay?
614
00:26:42,750 --> 00:26:43,750
We don't need that.

We don't need that.

00:26:45,490 --> 00:26:46,800
Nasty guy.
618
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,230
Now I know why he doesn't
have one endorsement
619
00:26:48,270 --> 00:26:49,450
from any of his colleagues.

- All right, John,

- [Moderator] Senator
Cruz, pick from the buffet.

00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,670
- Rand Paul shouldn't
even be on this stage.

00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,670
He's number 11. He's
got 1% in the polls.

00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,070
- I don't know.
- You're not beating Hillary.

Hey, if I can't,
if can't beat her

get killed, aren't you?

00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,420
So let me ask you this,

00:27:05,470 --> 00:27:06,600
'cause you're really
getting beaten badly.
631
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:07,900
I know you're embarrassed.
632
00:27:07,950 --> 00:27:09,250
I know you're embarrassed,
but keep fighting.
633
00:27:09,300 --> 00:27:11,690
Keep swinging, men.
Swing for the fences.
634
00:27:11,730 --> 00:27:13,470
Let me just tell you.
Let me just tell you..
635
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,040
- I mean, they were all
ready for each other,
636
00:27:16,090 --> 00:27:17,300
but they weren't ready for him.
637
00:27:17,350 --> 00:27:19,520
Okay, he was like the
human wrecking ball.
638
00:27:19,570 --> 00:27:23,050
He was the Howard Stern of
presidential candidates.
639
00:27:23,090 --> 00:27:26,790
He was the first smash-mouth,
shock jock candidate.
640
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,400
So he came in there
with his tongue.
641
00:27:28,450 --> 00:27:29,710
He used them as boxing fists.
642
00:27:29,750 --> 00:27:31,230
He was just boom,
boom, boom, boom, boom.
643

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

- Quiet.

00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,150

'em left and right,
646
00:27:34,190 --> 00:27:34,800

652
00:27:45,510 --> 00:27:48,160
Two days ago he said he
would take his pants off

00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,210
and moon everybody,
and that's fine.
654
00:27:50,250 --> 00:27:51,510
Nobody reports that.
655
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,900
He gets up and says that.

right down the street.

They're sleeping!
They're sleeping now.

in the linguistic kill shot,
659
00:28:02,090 --> 00:28:02,870
as I call it.
660
00:28:02,910 --> 00:28:04,050
- He's very low energy.
661
00:28:04,090 --> 00:28:06,570
I'm not used to that
kind of a person.
662
00:28:06,610 --> 00:28:10,050
- If you looked at a Jeb
Bush before the nickname,
663
00:28:10,100 --> 00:28:11,400
you probably thought what I did
664
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,230
which was, hey,
this Jeb Bush guy
665
00:28:13,270 --> 00:28:18,280
looks like a real cool,
calm, even-headed leader.
666
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,670
- But the moment that Trump
said he was low-energy,
667
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,500
you couldn't unsee it.
668
00:28:24,540 --> 00:28:25,590

- More energy
tonight. I like that.
672
00:28:30,860 --> 00:28:32,990
- And then he got
to "Lying Ted".

00:28:33,030 --> 00:28:35,510
Well, look at him.
He looks shifty
674
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:36,600
- And he cleverly made it
675
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:37,210
Lyin' with an
apostrophe, not a G.

00:28:39,300 --> 00:28:43,780

did "Little Marco"...

- I knew this stuff works.
681
00:28:51,620 --> 00:28:55,310
- It was the idea that Trump
was assigning people names.
682
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,660
That conveys a
sort of authority.
683
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,450
- Don't worry about it,
Little Marco, I will.
684
00:29:00,490 --> 00:29:02,580
- All right, well
let's hear, Big...

Don't worry about
it, Little Marco.

Sometimes the only way
to deal with a bully

is to knock him on his ass.
690
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,810
- He's always calling
me Little Marco.
691
00:29:11,850 --> 00:29:13,290
And I'll admit, the guy,
he's taller than me.
692
00:29:13,330 --> 00:29:15,510
He's like 6'2", which is
why I don't understand
693
00:29:15,550 --> 00:29:18,160
why his hands are the size
of someone who's 5'2".
694
00:29:18,210 --> 00:29:21,210
Have you seen his hands?
They're like this.
695
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,000
And you know what they say
about men with small hands...

00:29:30,870 --> 00:29:34,220
Oh, he messed up his brand,
and that was never his brand.
699
00:29:34,270 --> 00:29:38,580
It was exactly that...
It was cringe-worthy.
700
00:29:38,620 --> 00:29:40,970
- He hit my hands. Nobody
has ever hit my hands.
701
00:29:41,010 --> 00:29:42,230
I've never heard of this one.
702
00:29:42,270 --> 00:29:44,320
Look at those hands.
Are they small hands?
703
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,240
[audience laughing]
704
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,150
And he referred to my hands,
705
00:29:48,190 --> 00:29:50,940
if they're small, something
else must be small.
706
00:29:50,980 --> 00:29:53,550
I guarantee you there's no
problem. I guarantee it.
707
00:29:53,590 --> 00:29:54,900
[audience laughing]
708
00:29:54,940 --> 00:29:56,070
- You have young children.
709
00:29:56,110 --> 00:29:57,680
Do you regret where
this has gone?
710
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,160
- Look, I...
711
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,120
I regret the way that campaign
has become, absolutely,
712
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,300
because Donald Trump,
for the last year,
713
00:30:03,340 --> 00:30:05,170
has made it one of the
most vulgar spectacles
714
00:30:05,210 --> 00:30:07,130
in American political history.
715
00:30:07,170 --> 00:30:08,820
[overlapping shouts]
716
00:30:08,870 --> 00:30:12,570
- Trump ran through the
Republican field like a buzzsaw.
717
00:30:13,700 --> 00:30:15,830
- The Bush dynasty is done.
718
00:30:17,530 --> 00:30:20,490
There were Republicans
who were rising stars,
719
00:30:20,530 --> 00:30:21,750
whether you're talking
about a Chris Christie
720
00:30:21,790 --> 00:30:25,360
or a Marco Rubio, a Rick
Perry, who are done,
721
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,840
done in American life.
722
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,410
And then it got
to the Democrats.
723
00:30:30,450 --> 00:30:32,720
- Part of Hillary's whole
strategy in the primaries
724
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,370
was to elevate
Trump to make sure
725
00:30:34,410 --> 00:30:36,070
that the media
took him seriously.
726
00:30:36,110 --> 00:30:38,030
- Now, some transformation
has happened,
727
00:30:38,070 --> 00:30:41,160
and Republicans, whether they
support Donald Trump or not,
728
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,160
seem to think that he
really is their best chance
729
00:30:44,210 --> 00:30:47,300
of winning the general
election next November.
730
00:30:47,340 --> 00:30:49,170
- Anne, which
Republican candidate
731
00:30:49,210 --> 00:30:52,340
has the best chance at
winning the general election?
732
00:30:52,390 --> 00:30:55,480
- Of the declared ones,
right now Donald Trump.
733
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,960
[audience laughing]
734
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,570
- There was a feeling of
like the Clinton campaign
735
00:31:00,610 --> 00:31:03,400
felt like this is great.
736
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,620
He'll destroy the
Republican Party
737
00:31:06,530 --> 00:31:10,750
and make it impossible
for a Republican to win.
738
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,930
- Donald Trump's continue
ascent in the Republican Party
739
00:31:13,980 --> 00:31:17,330
could mean the end of the
Republican Party as we know it,
740
00:31:17,370 --> 00:31:19,940
that George W. Bush
could be the last
741
00:31:19,980 --> 00:31:22,110
elected Republican president.
742
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,990
- The RNC apparatus...
743
00:31:25,030 --> 00:31:27,730
eventually panicked...
744
00:31:27,770 --> 00:31:30,030
at the idea of Donald
Trump being the nominee,
745
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,820
and they started to be more
aggressive behind the scenes
746
00:31:32,860 --> 00:31:34,260
to try to derail it.
747
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:37,780
If we Republicans choose
Donald Trump as our nominee,
748
00:31:37,820 --> 00:31:41,050
the prospects for a safe
and prosperous future
749
00:31:41,090 --> 00:31:42,260
are greatly diminished.
750
00:31:42,310 --> 00:31:43,440
- You can see how loyal he is.
751
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,180
He was begging for
my endorsement.
752
00:31:46,050 --> 00:31:47,970
I could've said, "Mitt,
drop to your knees."
753
00:31:48,010 --> 00:31:51,140
He would have dropped to
his knees. He was begging!
754
00:31:51,190 --> 00:31:52,750
- We've confirmed
that both presidents
755
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,930
George W. Bush and his
father George H.W. Bush
756
00:31:55,970 --> 00:31:58,630
will stay silent and
not endorse anyone.
757
00:31:58,670 --> 00:32:02,720
- He's a race baiting,
xenophobic, religious bigot.
758
00:32:03,590 --> 00:32:05,200
He doesn't represent my party.
759
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:06,680
- They wanted him
to write checks.
760
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,380
They viewed him as a donor.
761
00:32:08,420 --> 00:32:10,680
They did not view him
as a serious candidate.
762
00:32:10,730 --> 00:32:12,860
They viewed him as a
threat to everything
763
00:32:12,900 --> 00:32:15,120
that the RNC had
been working for.
764
00:32:15,170 --> 00:32:17,520
And what the RNC didn't realize
765
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,950
is that the American people
could really have cared less
766
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,650
what their point of view was.
767
00:32:21,690 --> 00:32:24,310
- CNN projects that Donald Trump
768
00:32:24,350 --> 00:32:28,010
will be the winner of the New
Hampshire Republican Primary.
769
00:32:28,050 --> 00:32:30,050
- Oh, wow!
770
00:32:30,090 --> 00:32:31,490
Wow, wow, wow.
771
00:32:31,530 --> 00:32:33,010
- [Reporter] Donald
Trump is the winner
772
00:32:33,050 --> 00:32:34,450
of the Nevada Caucuses.
773
00:32:34,490 --> 00:32:37,840
- We won with young.
We won with old.
774
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,890
We won with highly educated.
We won with poorly educated.
775
00:32:41,930 --> 00:32:44,410
I love the poorly educated.
776
00:32:44,460 --> 00:32:46,550
- [Reporter] A 22-point
margin in Alabama,
777
00:32:46,590 --> 00:32:49,070
14-point victory in
Tennessee and Georgia.
778
00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:50,380
- Yeah, baby!
779
00:32:50,420 --> 00:32:52,200
- [Reporter] Very big
nights for Donald Trump.
780
00:32:52,250 --> 00:32:53,340
- They got destroyed.
781
00:32:53,380 --> 00:32:55,340
Donald Trump, all
five states called
782
00:32:55,380 --> 00:32:57,380
relatively early in the night.
783
00:32:57,430 --> 00:33:01,000
- People thought that
Conservative values voters
784
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,690
were gonna care more
about personal morality
785
00:33:03,740 --> 00:33:06,390
than political and
policy alignment.
786
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,910
And at the end of
the day, it turns out
787
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,050
they don't care that much
about personal morality
788
00:33:10,090 --> 00:33:10,960
for their leaders.
789
00:33:11,010 --> 00:33:13,620
[audience cheering]
790
00:33:13,660 --> 00:33:16,270
- He exposes the fact
that it's not about ideas.
791
00:33:16,310 --> 00:33:17,450
It's about emotions.
792
00:33:17,490 --> 00:33:19,750
This is not about
actually ideology.
793
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,490
It's, oh, you know,
he talks like me,
794
00:33:22,540 --> 00:33:25,280
he thinks like me, in some
cases he hates like me.
795
00:33:26,930 --> 00:33:29,720
They felt like the
two major parties
796
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,770
had failed the country in
the most fundamental ways,
797
00:33:33,810 --> 00:33:35,590
and they simply
weren't listening,
798
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,770
and they wanted
to find the person
799
00:33:37,810 --> 00:33:40,300
who could personify
their anguish
800
00:33:40,340 --> 00:33:41,730
about the country's future.
801
00:33:45,650 --> 00:33:47,820
[crowd cheering]
802
00:33:47,870 --> 00:33:51,520
- [Audience] Bernie,
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie!
803
00:33:53,310 --> 00:33:55,220
- Well, look, nobody saw
Bernie Sanders coming,
804
00:33:55,270 --> 00:33:56,790
least of all the Hillary
Clinton campaign.
805
00:33:56,830 --> 00:33:58,790
And even Bernie Sanders
himself was surprised
806
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,320
by how much traction he got.
807
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,490
- [Announcer] Senator
Bernie Sanders!
808
00:34:04,540 --> 00:34:07,500
[audience cheering]
809
00:34:07,540 --> 00:34:10,540
- What this campaign
is about is creating
810
00:34:10,590 --> 00:34:13,850
a political
revolution in America.
811
00:34:13,890 --> 00:34:16,900
[audience cheering]
812
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,120
- CNN projects
that Bernie Sanders
813
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,820
will win the Wisconsin
Democratic Presidential Primary,
814
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:26,380
beating Hillary Clinton.
815
00:34:26,430 --> 00:34:28,690
A big, big win for
Bernie Sanders.
816
00:34:28,730 --> 00:34:30,480
He won five of the
last six states.
817
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,390
- We've now won, I
guess, nine states.
818
00:34:32,430 --> 00:34:34,350
And a lot more are yet to come.
819
00:34:34,390 --> 00:34:36,660
I think Bernie Sanders was...
820
00:34:36,700 --> 00:34:39,010
said a lot about
weaknesses in her candidacy
821
00:34:39,050 --> 00:34:40,880
that he gave her
such a hard run.
822
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,790
- Her campaign refused
to take seriously
823
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,450
that there had been an
insurgency in her party,
824
00:34:47,490 --> 00:34:51,840
and a 149 year old
socialist from Vermont
825
00:34:51,890 --> 00:34:55,980
who nobody ever heard of got
47% of the vote against her.
826
00:34:56,020 --> 00:34:59,770
She went to Michigan and
got beat to a bloody pulp
827
00:34:59,810 --> 00:35:01,160
by Bernie Sanders.
828
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,030
That lets you know that
there's a problem for you
829
00:35:04,070 --> 00:35:05,820
in the industrial heartland.
830
00:35:05,860 --> 00:35:07,160
- The fact that he
was able to pull off
831
00:35:07,210 --> 00:35:09,340
that incredible
upset showed people
832
00:35:09,380 --> 00:35:13,260
that there is still a
very vocal constituency
833
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:14,740
in the Democratic base.
834
00:35:14,780 --> 00:35:18,220
- What we see is
a populism rising,
835
00:35:18,260 --> 00:35:21,570
but a populism that is formed
836
00:35:21,610 --> 00:35:24,660
by a lack of economic gain
837
00:35:24,700 --> 00:35:27,360
and movement in the
middle of the economy.
838
00:35:32,060 --> 00:35:35,540
- A very large swath of the
country has felt left out
839
00:35:35,580 --> 00:35:37,850
by the economic miracle
that's taken place
840
00:35:37,890 --> 00:35:39,200
over the last 30 years.
841
00:35:41,070 --> 00:35:42,980
[soft music]
842
00:35:43,030 --> 00:35:45,030
In the process of globalization,
843
00:35:45,070 --> 00:35:48,290
there's been rising living
standards all over the world,
844
00:35:48,340 --> 00:35:49,730
but the American middle-class
845
00:35:49,770 --> 00:35:52,730
and American lower middle-class
missed out on this.
846
00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:57,350
- In the United States
of America today,
847
00:35:58,260 --> 00:36:01,310
there is massive injustice
848
00:36:01,350 --> 00:36:05,350
in terms of income
and wealth inequality.
849
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,660
- When you have no
real wage growth,
850
00:36:07,700 --> 00:36:12,710
when 67% doesn't have
$1,000 dollars in savings,
851
00:36:13,230 --> 00:36:17,230
when all the economic
gains accrue at the top,
852
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,930
that will ultimately
destabilize politics.
853
00:36:20,980 --> 00:36:23,110
- Remember, 76% of Americans
854
00:36:23,150 --> 00:36:25,020
do not have a four
year college degree.
855
00:36:25,070 --> 00:36:26,980
More than two
thirds of Americans
856
00:36:27,030 --> 00:36:29,640
have never been
to college at all.
857
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,680
So, what you're excluding
is the vast majority
858
00:36:32,730 --> 00:36:35,990
of the country from
the possibility of
859
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:37,080
of the upper middle class.
860
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,210
- Those people were angry.
861
00:36:39,260 --> 00:36:42,260
- [Audience] Bernie
Sanders! [clapping]
862
00:36:42,300 --> 00:36:43,780
Bernie Sanders!
863
00:36:43,830 --> 00:36:47,260
- [Audience] Trump, Trump,
Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump!
864
00:36:47,310 --> 00:36:48,660
- Boo!
865
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:51,010
- Things he's saying I've
been saying for years.
866
00:36:51,050 --> 00:36:53,050
When he wins, we all win.
867
00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:54,360
[soft music]
868
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,320
- He tapped into a vein
of the American mindset
869
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,840
that believed that the
American dream was aspirational
870
00:37:01,890 --> 00:37:03,370
but no longer achievable.
871
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:06,850
- I'm tired of the
politicians in Washington.
872
00:37:06,890 --> 00:37:08,810
I'm tired of the way
the country's being run.
873
00:37:08,850 --> 00:37:10,290
And I want some change.
874
00:37:10,330 --> 00:37:12,810
I want somebody new, and the
man knows what he's doing.
875
00:37:12,860 --> 00:37:14,770
- If you want a candidate
876
00:37:14,810 --> 00:37:17,990
who's gonna help
create a government
877
00:37:18,030 --> 00:37:22,430
which for all of us
and not just the 1%...
878
00:37:22,470 --> 00:37:27,260
- The jobs, incomes, and
security of the American worker
879
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:30,870
will always be my
first priority.
880
00:37:32,530 --> 00:37:33,700
- And this guy is saying,
881
00:37:33,750 --> 00:37:36,310
I'm not gonna ship
your job jobs overseas.
882
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,270
I'm not going to
trade with people
883
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,230
who will undermine our economy.
884
00:37:40,270 --> 00:37:42,150
I'm not gonna let
people into the country
885
00:37:42,190 --> 00:37:43,710
who will jeopardize
your security.
886
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,190
That's what they're looking for.
887
00:37:45,240 --> 00:37:47,760
- I am going to be...
888
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,680
the greatest jobs president...
889
00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:52,680
that God ever created.
890
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:53,720
Remember that.
891
00:37:53,770 --> 00:37:55,250
[audience cheering]
892
00:37:55,290 --> 00:37:57,030
- I think a lot of
people go, "Oh my gosh!
893
00:37:57,070 --> 00:38:00,250
Look at this Trump, he's
upending everything!"
894
00:38:00,290 --> 00:38:02,560
And this is some disease that
just popped out of nowhere
895
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:03,780
in the American polity.
896
00:38:03,820 --> 00:38:05,650
And it's like, no,
he's actually a symptom
897
00:38:05,690 --> 00:38:07,740
of the fact that many
people have felt alienated
898
00:38:07,780 --> 00:38:11,310
for a long time, have felt
disappointed in their vehicles
899
00:38:11,350 --> 00:38:13,610
for reaching
Congress, in Congress,
900
00:38:13,660 --> 00:38:16,960
in this entire sort of system.
901
00:38:17,010 --> 00:38:20,140
- Our system is rigged.
902
00:38:20,180 --> 00:38:22,490
The system is corrupt.
903
00:38:22,530 --> 00:38:24,580
The system is broken.
904
00:38:24,620 --> 00:38:26,360
[somber music]
905
00:38:26,410 --> 00:38:29,580
- They were waiting for
someone who just would grab
906
00:38:29,630 --> 00:38:32,800
the people of Washington,
the leeches and the lawyers
907
00:38:32,850 --> 00:38:34,630
and the lobbyists
and all of them,
908
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,720
just grab them by the neck
and say get the fuck out.
909
00:38:37,770 --> 00:38:40,770
- We are going to
drain the swamp.
910
00:38:40,810 --> 00:38:45,820
It is time to drain the
swamp in Washington, D.C.
911
00:38:46,430 --> 00:38:48,390
We're draining the swamp.
912
00:38:48,430 --> 00:38:51,430
[audience cheering]
913
00:38:54,740 --> 00:38:56,310
- [Interviewer] Some
people have told us
914
00:38:56,350 --> 00:38:59,400
that Trump voters were dumb
and that he manipulated them.
915
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,440
- It is a mistake to
say, or to believe,
916
00:39:02,490 --> 00:39:04,360
that people who voted for
Donald Trump are stupid,
917
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:05,660
just like it's a mistake to say
918
00:39:05,710 --> 00:39:08,360
that they're sexist or
racist or xenophobic.
919
00:39:09,450 --> 00:39:11,800
It is fair to say, though,
that they were duped.
920
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,450
Because if you're
looking for a champion,
921
00:39:13,500 --> 00:39:15,540
if you've been squeezed as
a member of the middle-class
922
00:39:15,590 --> 00:39:18,420
for a Rust Belt city,
a billionaire populist
923
00:39:18,460 --> 00:39:21,240
who lives on Fifth Avenue
is not gonna be your savior.
924
00:39:21,290 --> 00:39:22,460
Now, to Donald Trump's credit,
925
00:39:22,510 --> 00:39:24,160
he was able to
connect with them.
926
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,640
- And I'll tell you what.
927
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:30,170
The big business in this
country, and I'm a part of it,
928
00:39:30,210 --> 00:39:31,600
but I decided-
929
00:39:31,650 --> 00:39:34,080
I'd been on the other side.
You do know that, right?
930
00:39:34,130 --> 00:39:35,740
I understand the other side.
931
00:39:35,780 --> 00:39:36,910
- In some way,
it's possible that,
932
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,350
because he owned
being the rich guy
933
00:39:39,390 --> 00:39:41,790
who was going to help
everybody do better,
934
00:39:41,830 --> 00:39:44,660
it, in a way, circumvented
the criticisms
935
00:39:44,700 --> 00:39:46,140
that he's just some rich guy.
936
00:39:46,180 --> 00:39:47,840
- Large numbers of
Americans have thought
937
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,450
for a very long period of time
938
00:39:49,490 --> 00:39:52,360
that, if we can only get
a businessman in there,
939
00:39:52,410 --> 00:39:53,800
someone who understood business,
940
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,320
we could make the government
run like a business.
941
00:39:56,370 --> 00:39:57,980
Which is kind of a
funny point of view
942
00:39:58,020 --> 00:40:01,850
when you think of all of
the senators and governors
943
00:40:01,890 --> 00:40:03,810
who were businessmen,
who were elected
944
00:40:03,850 --> 00:40:06,420
and generally have been
a disastrous politician.
945
00:40:06,460 --> 00:40:09,030
[helicopter whirring]
946
00:40:09,070 --> 00:40:13,470
- He was out there giving
helicopter rides to children,
947
00:40:13,510 --> 00:40:15,990
spending tons of
money showing anything
948
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,690
but humble beginnings.
949
00:40:17,740 --> 00:40:20,300
but that's who his persona was,
950
00:40:20,350 --> 00:40:23,920
and that made him
seem authentic.
951
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,660
- So he wore a suit where
other people don't wear suits.
952
00:40:27,700 --> 00:40:31,400
He stayed looking presidential
in every situation.
953
00:40:31,450 --> 00:40:33,190
[overlapping shouts]
954
00:40:33,230 --> 00:40:35,060
- Mr. Trump now has security
955
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:37,540
equal to the President
of the United States.
956
00:40:37,580 --> 00:40:40,060
- We commonly refer to
our activity as the show,
957
00:40:40,110 --> 00:40:43,760
and the reason being is
because it was a show.
958
00:40:43,810 --> 00:40:46,630
If you think about the
optics, the black vehicles,
959
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,980
the limousines, the
agents that jump out
960
00:40:49,030 --> 00:40:51,290
with sunglasses and earpieces,
961
00:40:51,330 --> 00:40:53,550
there's a sense of
importance and gravitas
962
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,170
that comes with the show.
963
00:40:56,210 --> 00:40:58,860
And Donald Trump had
that almost one year
964
00:40:58,910 --> 00:41:01,000
in advance of the election.
965
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,950
- And he made sure that,
when he landed his plane,
966
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,260
that it looked a lot
like Air Force One.
967
00:41:05,300 --> 00:41:08,000
That there would be plenty
of camera time for that.
968
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,400
- The American people would
have been disappointed
969
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,400
if he had appeared
at any airport
970
00:41:15,450 --> 00:41:17,400
in any other jet.
971
00:41:18,190 --> 00:41:22,150
The black and gold and
red Trump color scheme,
972
00:41:22,190 --> 00:41:25,760
and the giant block
letters of gold, Trump,
973
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:30,420
are things that people
respond to now emotionally.
974
00:41:30,460 --> 00:41:33,590
It's not just that they're
amused and riveted by it.
975
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,070
They like it.
976
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,900
- They admire Donald
Trump the same way
977
00:41:36,950 --> 00:41:38,820
they once admired Elvis.
978
00:41:38,860 --> 00:41:41,780
They see a man who's living
large, who's enjoying life,
979
00:41:41,820 --> 00:41:43,390
Who's doing what they
would probably do
980
00:41:43,430 --> 00:41:45,390
if they were worth
billions of dollars.
981
00:41:45,430 --> 00:41:48,260
- Trump is the guy that the
working class man would be
982
00:41:48,300 --> 00:41:49,870
If he won the lottery.
983
00:41:49,910 --> 00:41:52,310
There's something about Trump's
wealth, the gold-platedness,
984
00:41:52,350 --> 00:41:55,570
the eating a bucket of
KFC on his airplane.
985
00:41:55,620 --> 00:41:58,180
[soft electronic music]
986
00:41:58,230 --> 00:42:00,800
- He's one powerful person
987
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,280
who's gonna stand
up and stand between
988
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:08,540
the regular folks and the
elite and say, "I'm with them."
989
00:42:10,540 --> 00:42:11,890
- He has money.
990
00:42:11,940 --> 00:42:13,980
He's supporting this
campaign from his own money.
991
00:42:14,030 --> 00:42:14,980
He believes in this.
992
00:42:15,030 --> 00:42:16,290
- I'm here for Donald Trump
993
00:42:16,330 --> 00:42:19,160
because he loves America
and he loves Texans.
994
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:20,210
- And veterans.
995
00:42:20,250 --> 00:42:21,900
- Yes! Yes!
996
00:42:21,950 --> 00:42:25,820
- We need jobs and
we need more jobs.
997
00:42:25,860 --> 00:42:29,040
I mean, it's getting bad,
but it's gonna get better,
998
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:30,350
'cause he's gonna
be our president.
999
00:42:30,390 --> 00:42:32,570
- He wants to eliminate
some of the corruption
1000
00:42:32,610 --> 00:42:34,000
that's in the government.
1001
00:42:34,050 --> 00:42:35,260
And there's a lot of
corruption in this government
1002
00:42:35,310 --> 00:42:36,920
at the present time.
1003
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,440
- If you were afraid that your
child was being indoctrinated
1004
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,620
in high school or college,
Trump had a message for you.
1005
00:42:41,660 --> 00:42:44,190
If you were angry about
the cultural signals
1006
00:42:44,230 --> 00:42:47,800
that Hollywood was sending,
he had a message for you.
1007
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,370
And if you were...
1008
00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:53,200
resentful that the media
wasn't telling the whole story,
1009
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:55,330
boy, did he have
a message for you.
1010
00:42:55,370 --> 00:43:00,160
And it became Trump versus
this cultural elite.
1011
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,600
[grave electronic music]
1012
00:43:08,860 --> 00:43:13,350
- If you look at a Trump rally,
you see the joyful faces,
1013
00:43:13,390 --> 00:43:16,350
people laughing,
people having fun.
1014
00:43:17,870 --> 00:43:21,050
- He was electrifying audiences
1015
00:43:21,090 --> 00:43:23,620
of 10 to 20 to 30,000 people.
1016
00:43:23,660 --> 00:43:25,310
- I would go early
to the events.
1017
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,360
They would be lined
up around the block,
1018
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,190
into the second block,
into the third block.
1019
00:43:30,230 --> 00:43:31,630
Never seen anything like it.
1020
00:43:32,580 --> 00:43:35,800
- They would show up in
labyrinth, snake-like lines
1021
00:43:35,850 --> 00:43:37,670
to go to a rally just
to say they were there
1022
00:43:37,720 --> 00:43:39,980
when he was there and
be part of his movement.
1023
00:43:40,900 --> 00:43:43,420
[stark music]
1024
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,290

Trump! We want Trump!

We want Trump!
1028
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,340
- When you start to
draw 10,000 people,
1029
00:43:55,390 --> 00:44:00,000
15, 20,000, in Trump's
case 30,000 people...
1030
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,000
and they're all
cheering your name...
1031
00:44:02,050 --> 00:44:04,400
And you're Donald Trump...
1032
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:05,920
It's better than Oxycontin.
1033
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,710
I mean, it is the most
addictive thing in life,
1034
00:44:08,750 --> 00:44:10,970
even more than private jets.
1035
00:44:11,010 --> 00:44:11,930

Thank you!
1039
00:44:17,850 --> 00:44:19,890
Ah, that's so beautiful.
1040
00:44:19,930 --> 00:44:22,940
- Donald Trump is very,
very hard to understand
1041
00:44:22,980 --> 00:44:26,460
if you come at him through the
lens of an educated person.
1042
00:44:26,510 --> 00:44:28,160
I went to a number
of his rallies
1043
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,900
in New Hampshire and
in South Carolina.
1044
00:44:30,950 --> 00:44:32,730
And I would listen
to Trump's speeches,
1045
00:44:32,770 --> 00:44:35,170
and it seemed to me as if
he was changing thoughts
1046
00:44:35,210 --> 00:44:36,690
in the middle of a sentence,
1047
00:44:36,730 --> 00:44:38,520
not just in the middle
of the paragraph.
1048
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,040
There were so many
unfinished thoughts
1049
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,000
and so many imprecise wordings.
1050
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,350
I thought, my gosh, what does
this guy even talking about?
1051
00:44:44,390 --> 00:44:46,350
- Did you read about Starbucks?
1052
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,960
No more "Merry
Christmas" on Starbucks.
1053
00:44:49,010 --> 00:44:50,570
Then you say, sorry,
we're leaving.
1054
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:52,580
You go out, you double
up the sanctions.
1055
00:44:52,620 --> 00:44:55,140
By the time your plane lands
1056
00:44:55,190 --> 00:44:57,670
at one of our decrepit
airports, they're all decrepit.
1057
00:44:57,710 --> 00:45:00,800
This was said to me by one of
the great musical geniuses.
1058
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:02,280
I won't tell you his name.
1059
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,240
I don't want to get in trouble.
1060
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,760
But he said, "Donald, you're
the greatest in the world.
1061
00:45:06,810 --> 00:45:09,110
You're the only one
that can fill an arena
1062
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,810
without a guitar,"
meaning without music.
1063
00:45:11,860 --> 00:45:15,470
I don't want Oreos
made in Mexico!
1064
00:45:15,510 --> 00:45:16,820
[audience booing]
1065
00:45:16,860 --> 00:45:17,690
Right?
1066
00:45:17,730 --> 00:45:19,040
- It's baffling to me...
1067
00:45:19,860 --> 00:45:22,610
why people would say that he...
1068
00:45:22,650 --> 00:45:26,700
that Trump gets anyone
in the Rust Belt,
1069
00:45:26,740 --> 00:45:28,830
any middle-class person.
1070
00:45:28,870 --> 00:45:30,570
Not only...
1071
00:45:30,610 --> 00:45:34,310
Yes, does he literally live in
a gold tower in New York City
1072
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:38,660
and a mansion in Beverly Hills,
on a golf course in Florida
1073
00:45:38,710 --> 00:45:41,230
I never saw a speech
of Donald Trump's
1074
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,970
where he addressed the
needs of the working class.
1075
00:45:44,020 --> 00:45:46,280
I never saw a single
speech of Donald Trump's
1076
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:50,720
where he talked about anything
but himself and his enemies.
1077
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,420
- And yet, when I talked
to the people in the crowd,
1078
00:45:53,460 --> 00:45:55,120
I found that he was
resonating with them.
1079
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,160
- We're gonna win so much,
1080
00:45:57,210 --> 00:45:59,510
you may even get
tired of winning!
1081
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,910
And you'll say, "Please, please!
1082
00:46:01,950 --> 00:46:03,390
It's too much winning!
1083
00:46:03,430 --> 00:46:05,390
We can't take it anymore!
1084
00:46:05,430 --> 00:46:07,520
Mr. President, it's too much!"
1085
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,090
And I'll say, "No, it isn't!
1086
00:46:09,130 --> 00:46:10,650
We have to keep winning!
1087
00:46:10,700 --> 00:46:12,130
We have to win more!
1088
00:46:12,180 --> 00:46:13,480
We're gonna win more!"
1089
00:46:13,530 --> 00:46:14,660
- You can mock it.
1090
00:46:14,700 --> 00:46:16,010
You can say you
don't agree with it.
1091
00:46:16,050 --> 00:46:18,050
You can say it wasn't
sophisticated enough.
1092
00:46:18,100 --> 00:46:19,360
But you can't say
he didn't have it.
1093
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,660
He knew exactly what he
wanted to tell people.
1094
00:46:21,710 --> 00:46:22,970
- People came to the rallies
1095
00:46:23,010 --> 00:46:24,670
because they had no idea
what he was gonna say.
1096
00:46:24,710 --> 00:46:27,100
They had no ideas whether
there were gonna be fights.
1097
00:46:27,150 --> 00:46:28,190
You didn't know.
1098
00:46:28,240 --> 00:46:30,370
- His campaign
violence gone viral.
1099
00:46:30,410 --> 00:46:32,070
Those are the big
questions this week
1100
00:46:32,110 --> 00:46:33,680
after the ugliest two days
1101
00:46:33,720 --> 00:46:36,720
of a dangerously angry
White House race.
1102
00:46:36,770 --> 00:46:38,990
- Oh, we have a protester.
1103
00:46:39,030 --> 00:46:40,380
We have a protester.
1104
00:46:40,420 --> 00:46:42,770
[audience booing]
1105
00:46:42,820 --> 00:46:44,080
I love the old days.
1106
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:45,470
You know what they used
to do to guys like that
1107
00:46:45,510 --> 00:46:46,990
when they were in
a place like this?
1108
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,690
They'd be carried out
on a stretcher, folks.
1109
00:46:49,740 --> 00:46:51,960
[audience cheering]
1110
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,260
Ah, it's true.
1111
00:46:54,740 --> 00:46:55,740
Get 'em outta here!
1112
00:46:55,790 --> 00:46:56,830
Get 'em out!
1113
00:46:56,870 --> 00:46:58,050
Out, out, out!
1114
00:46:58,090 --> 00:47:00,140
Bye! Go home to mommy.
1115
00:47:00,180 --> 00:47:02,180
- [Reporter] Do you regret
saying any of those things
1116
00:47:02,230 --> 00:47:03,660
about punching protesters,
1117
00:47:03,710 --> 00:47:05,750
sending them out on stretchers?
1118
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,150
- No, I don't regret it at all.
1119
00:47:08,190 --> 00:47:09,360
- Racist go home!
- Build that wall!
1120
00:47:09,410 --> 00:47:10,670
- Racist go home!
- Build that wall!
1121
00:47:10,710 --> 00:47:14,020
- Is there anything more
fun than a Trump rally?
1122
00:47:14,060 --> 00:47:15,410
- [Audience] No!
1123
00:47:15,460 --> 00:47:17,500
- The ancient Romans
said that the electorate
1124
00:47:17,550 --> 00:47:19,680
was motivated by
bread and circuses.
1125
00:47:19,720 --> 00:47:23,470
So the idea that
giving people a show
1126
00:47:23,510 --> 00:47:26,030
is not unique to
21st century America
1127
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,210
or 21st century world.
1128
00:47:29,650 --> 00:47:31,820
But Trump Is good at it. He's
good at provoking people.
1129
00:47:31,870 --> 00:47:33,170
He's good at getting
a rise out of people
1130
00:47:33,210 --> 00:47:34,350
in whatever medium.
1131
00:47:34,390 --> 00:47:35,780
ISIS...
1132
00:47:35,830 --> 00:47:36,870
is honoring...
1133
00:47:37,910 --> 00:47:39,130
President Obama.
1134
00:47:39,180 --> 00:47:39,960
[audience booing]
1135
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:41,960
He is the founder of ISIS.
1136
00:47:42,010 --> 00:47:43,350
He's the founder of ISIS.
1137
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,230
- Trump has launched
a new line of attacks
1138
00:47:45,270 --> 00:47:47,180
trying to link the
Obama administration
1139
00:47:47,230 --> 00:47:48,580
to the founding of ISIS.
1140
00:47:48,620 --> 00:47:51,890
- Founding ISIS would be,
I mean, that's treason.
1141
00:47:51,930 --> 00:47:53,450
- I know what you meant.
1142
00:47:53,500 --> 00:47:55,150
You meant that he created the
vacuum, he lost the peace.
1143
00:47:55,190 --> 00:47:57,150
- No, I meant he's
the founder of ISIS.
1144
00:47:57,190 --> 00:47:59,110
He was the founder of ISIS.
1145
00:47:59,150 --> 00:48:00,200
Absolutely.
1146
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:03,420
- Every night I had
to sit on set...
1147
00:48:04,460 --> 00:48:07,990
cable news, and listen
to people explaining
1148
00:48:08,030 --> 00:48:11,430
how Trump is moments away
from self-destructing,
1149
00:48:11,470 --> 00:48:13,950
how the most recent thing
he's done is so terrible
1150
00:48:13,990 --> 00:48:15,210
and he'll never survive it.
1151
00:48:15,260 --> 00:48:17,040
- And I think what
Trump understood better
1152
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:20,610
than really anybody is the
truth of being in the media.
1153
00:48:20,650 --> 00:48:22,390
There's not a liberal
or a conservative bias
1154
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,310
as much as there's
a conflict bias,
1155
00:48:24,350 --> 00:48:27,140
and Donald Trump
provided daily conflict.
1156
00:48:27,180 --> 00:48:29,440
- You gotta see this guy,
"I don't know what I said!
1157
00:48:29,490 --> 00:48:30,270
[mumbling]
1158
00:48:30,310 --> 00:48:31,840
I don't remember!"
1159
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,320
- That reporter he is talking
about is Serge Kovaleski,
1160
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:35,800
who now works for
the New York Times.
1161
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:37,670
- Do you believe in punishment
for abortion, yes or no?
1162
00:48:37,710 --> 00:48:38,670
As a principle.
1163
00:48:38,710 --> 00:48:41,150
- The answer is that...
1164
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,980
there has to be some
form of punishment.
1165
00:48:43,020 --> 00:48:43,810
- For the woman?
1166
00:48:43,850 --> 00:48:45,240
- Yeah.
1167
00:48:45,290 --> 00:48:47,380
- Have you even read the
United States Constitution?
1168
00:48:47,420 --> 00:48:49,510
- If you look at his wife,
she was standing there.
1169
00:48:49,550 --> 00:48:50,680
She had nothing to say.
1170
00:48:50,730 --> 00:48:52,340
She probably, maybe
she wasn't allowed
1171
00:48:52,380 --> 00:48:53,340
to have anything to say.
1172
00:48:53,380 --> 00:48:54,770
You tell me.
1173
00:48:54,820 --> 00:48:56,650
- That's a famous Mussolini
quote. You retweeted it.
1174
00:48:56,690 --> 00:48:57,730
Do you like the quote?
1175
00:48:57,780 --> 00:48:58,820
Did you know it was Mussolini?
1176
00:48:58,860 --> 00:49:00,520
- It's okay to know
it's Mussolini.
1177
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:02,090
Look, Mussolini was Mussolini.
1178
00:49:02,130 --> 00:49:04,220
I'm gonna bomb the
shit out of 'em!
1179
00:49:04,260 --> 00:49:05,050
[audience cheering]
1180
00:49:05,090 --> 00:49:05,920
It's true.
1181
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:07,220
I don't care.
1182
00:49:07,260 --> 00:49:10,140
They give us the most
dishonest reporting,
1183
00:49:10,180 --> 00:49:11,750
and that's the way it is, folks.
1184
00:49:11,790 --> 00:49:14,050
That's the way it is, and
we just get used to it.
1185
00:49:14,100 --> 00:49:17,010
- Whenever Trump would
appear on television,
1186
00:49:17,060 --> 00:49:18,670
the ratings would go up.
1187
00:49:18,710 --> 00:49:20,190
- Man, who would have
expected the ride
1188
00:49:20,230 --> 00:49:21,800
we're all having right now.
1189
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,280
It may not be good for America,
but it's damn good for CBS.
1190
00:49:24,330 --> 00:49:25,200
That's all I got to say.
1191
00:49:25,240 --> 00:49:26,850
[audience laughing]
1192
00:49:26,890 --> 00:49:28,940
- So they had this endless
appetite for Trump,
1193
00:49:28,980 --> 00:49:31,330
because they had an endless
appetite for ratings.
1194
00:49:31,380 --> 00:49:33,900
[audience cheering]
1195
00:49:33,940 --> 00:49:35,510
- Trump's a racist!
1196
00:49:35,550 --> 00:49:38,510
[audience laughing]
1197
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,380
- Yeah, I mean, it's
symbiotic, right?
1198
00:49:40,430 --> 00:49:41,910
And everyone should admit
1199
00:49:41,950 --> 00:49:44,910
that this is a symbiotic
relationship that...
1200
00:49:44,950 --> 00:49:46,220
he rates...
1201
00:49:47,220 --> 00:49:49,130
we cover him 'cause he rates.
1202
00:49:49,180 --> 00:49:50,740
You could just put
a camera on him
1203
00:49:50,790 --> 00:49:54,220
and guarantee that it was gonna
be entertaining in some way.
1204
00:49:54,270 --> 00:49:56,270
- Because he's a
controlled car crash.
1205
00:49:56,310 --> 00:49:57,880
And once in a while
he'll hit the guard rail
1206
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:01,580
doing 75 miles an hour and
sparks will come off the car,
1207
00:50:01,620 --> 00:50:03,280
and you're like, okay,
where's this thing gonna go?
1208
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:04,800
I gotta watch this thing.
1209
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,020
- At first, he would do
an interview with anybody.
1210
00:50:07,060 --> 00:50:08,800
He was calling in to TV stations
1211
00:50:08,850 --> 00:50:10,460
and radio stations
left and right.
1212
00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:12,900
- I'm joined now on the phone
from New York by Donald Trump.
1213
00:50:12,940 --> 00:50:14,550
- On the phone, Donald Trump.
1214
00:50:14,590 --> 00:50:15,990
- Donald Trump on the phone
1215
00:50:16,030 --> 00:50:17,990
- We have a phone
call from somebody.
1216
00:50:18,030 --> 00:50:19,250
- Good morning, darling.
1217
00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:20,640
- Nobody had ever
seen that before.
1218
00:50:20,690 --> 00:50:25,390
Usually you have walls and
walls of media handlers
1219
00:50:25,430 --> 00:50:28,910
between a candidate
and the media system.
1220
00:50:28,950 --> 00:50:29,910
What's on the Facebook page?
1221
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:30,780
What's on the Twitter page?
1222
00:50:30,830 --> 00:50:32,390
Who's he talking to when?
1223
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,440
Trump just kept accelerating
his share of the media market.
1224
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:37,660
[cameras snapping]
1225
00:50:37,700 --> 00:50:39,180
- It was partly it
was Trump's celebrity
1226
00:50:39,230 --> 00:50:42,580
and the expectation that he
would say something outrageous.
1227
00:50:42,620 --> 00:50:43,840
- It may be.
1228
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:44,800
Again, I don't have the data,
1229
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,320
but I'm just gonna make a guess
1230
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,150
that Donald Trump was the
most televised candidate
1231
00:50:49,190 --> 00:50:51,020
in the history of candidates.
1232
00:50:51,060 --> 00:50:53,590
- He's someone that
commands media attention
1233
00:50:53,630 --> 00:50:55,370
and television oxygen.
1234
00:50:55,420 --> 00:50:57,590
And actually, what
happened is everyone,
1235
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,640
in the liberal
media in particular,
1236
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:01,810
continued to underestimate him.
1237
00:51:01,860 --> 00:51:03,770
- I think there is a large
segment of the population
1238
00:51:03,820 --> 00:51:07,080
in the United States that
wants to blame somebody,
1239
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:09,470
and the media becomes
an easy target.
1240
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,780
- But I do think that there
were things done for him,
1241
00:51:12,820 --> 00:51:16,130
like photos of the empty
podium, waiting for the presser,
1242
00:51:16,180 --> 00:51:18,830
because it was guaranteed
conflict, good TV.
1243
00:51:18,870 --> 00:51:21,140
- Front-runner Donald
Trump expected to speak
1244
00:51:21,180 --> 00:51:22,400
at a campaign rally.
1245
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:23,620
- So we're just expecting him.
1246
00:51:23,660 --> 00:51:25,010
- [Reporter] We're
awaiting his remarks.
1247
00:51:25,050 --> 00:51:25,750
- [Reporter] Still waiting
for that Donald Trump.
1248
00:51:25,790 --> 00:51:26,970
- Any minute now.
1249
00:51:27,010 --> 00:51:29,320
- All the news coverage
just got sucked up
1250
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,150
and focused on him,
because he continued to be
1251
00:51:32,190 --> 00:51:33,500
the most interesting story.
1252
00:51:33,540 --> 00:51:34,630
You can't even remember
1253
00:51:34,670 --> 00:51:37,020
what the other
candidates were about.
1254
00:51:37,070 --> 00:51:39,900
- But the media is
not the one that told
1255
00:51:39,940 --> 00:51:44,810
all of his competitors
not to do interviews.
1256
00:51:44,860 --> 00:51:47,730
They were running an old
game and an old playbook.
1257
00:51:47,770 --> 00:51:53,000
Trump, to his credit,
understood that new media world.
1258
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,300
And he took advantage of it.
There's no question about it.
1259
00:51:55,350 --> 00:51:58,520
- That led to just an
unconscionable amount
1260
00:51:58,570 --> 00:52:00,570
of free media coverage
1261
00:52:00,610 --> 00:52:03,050
that we could sort of
quantify in dollars.
1262
00:52:03,090 --> 00:52:04,790
It would be a really,
really high number.
1263
00:52:04,830 --> 00:52:07,180
- You know, people say that
he got a billion dollars
1264
00:52:07,230 --> 00:52:08,270
in free media in the primary,
1265
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,880
but a lot of that was negative.
1266
00:52:09,930 --> 00:52:12,540
A lot of that would have been
considered not a campaign ad
1267
00:52:12,580 --> 00:52:14,970
for his campaign but
for his opponents.
1268
00:52:15,020 --> 00:52:17,190
- I supported him. He
lost, he let us down.
1269
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:18,590
But, you know, he lost.
1270
00:52:18,630 --> 00:52:20,200
So I never liked him
as much after that
1271
00:52:20,240 --> 00:52:21,020
'cause I don't like losers.
1272
00:52:21,070 --> 00:52:22,110
[audience laughing]
1273
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,240
But Frank, Frank,
1274
00:52:23,290 --> 00:52:24,160
let me get to it.
- He's a war hero.
1275
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,070
He hit me.
- He's a war hero.
1276
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,600
You hear me say, "But
he's a war hero."
1277
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:29,990
I couldn't believe it.
1278
00:52:30,030 --> 00:52:31,290
He's a war hero. And
I said it like that.
1279
00:52:31,340 --> 00:52:32,470
- He's not a war hero.
1280
00:52:32,510 --> 00:52:33,470
- He's a war hero.
1281
00:52:33,510 --> 00:52:34,300
- He's a war hero-
1282
00:52:34,340 --> 00:52:35,520
- Five and a half years.
1283
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:37,300
- He's a war hero
'cause he was captured.
1284
00:52:37,340 --> 00:52:38,950
I like people that
weren't captured, okay?
1285
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:40,170
I hate to tell you.
1286
00:52:40,220 --> 00:52:42,040
- And I thought to
myself at that moment
1287
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,220
the gentleman who is
sitting across from you
1288
00:52:45,270 --> 00:52:48,490
is in the process of
lighting himself on fire.
1289
00:52:48,530 --> 00:52:50,310
- Oh, that was my first moment
1290
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,010
where I naively was like,
well, this guy's done.
1291
00:52:53,060 --> 00:52:54,270
[laughs]
1292
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,100
- Supposedly, that's
something that the right
1293
00:52:56,150 --> 00:52:57,360
does not tolerate.
1294
00:52:57,410 --> 00:53:00,280
You cannot go after
members of the military.
1295
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:01,670
- You know, I'm just speechless.
1296
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:04,890
'cause I just can't
believe such reckless words
1297
00:53:04,940 --> 00:53:06,810
out of a person's mouth.
1298
00:53:06,850 --> 00:53:09,900
- He did 10 things,
from the announcement
1299
00:53:09,940 --> 00:53:11,730
through the first vote in Iowa,
1300
00:53:11,770 --> 00:53:13,640
10 things that would have
killed any other candidate.
1301
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,560
And each time, he
just got stronger.
1302
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,120
- This is going to be a
nightmare of a campaign.
1303
00:53:18,170 --> 00:53:22,650
If he insists on being so
uncivil and so disrespectful,
1304
00:53:22,690 --> 00:53:25,040
but you better get ready for it.
1305
00:53:25,090 --> 00:53:26,570
- They say I have the
most loyal people.
1306
00:53:26,610 --> 00:53:27,960
Did you ever see that?
1307
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,830
Where I could stand in
the middle of Fifth Avenue
1308
00:53:29,870 --> 00:53:32,310
and shoot somebody, and I
wouldn't lose any voters, okay?
1309
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:33,490
It's incredible.
1310
00:53:33,530 --> 00:53:34,790
[audience laughing]
1311
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,360
- You're encouraged to
be modest, to be humble,
1312
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,710
not to show off,
not to be brash,
1313
00:53:39,750 --> 00:53:42,320
not to say provocative
things, to be very careful,
1314
00:53:42,370 --> 00:53:45,330
to tip toe around the
niceties of language.
1315
00:53:45,370 --> 00:53:47,370
Trump just ignored
all the playbook.
1316
00:53:47,410 --> 00:53:50,590
Trump just went, "No,
actually, I'm gonna be me.
1317
00:53:50,630 --> 00:53:53,460
For better or for worse,
I'm gonna to be authentic."
1318
00:53:53,510 --> 00:53:56,990
- And that was tremendously
attractive to an audience,
1319
00:53:57,030 --> 00:54:00,120
and I think a country, that
is perhaps rightly tired
1320
00:54:00,170 --> 00:54:02,470
of politicians who seem bound
1321
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:05,390
by what they considered
political correctness
1322
00:54:05,430 --> 00:54:07,830
in not saying those things.
1323
00:54:07,870 --> 00:54:10,870
[audience cheering]
1324
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,050
- What happens with Trump
1325
00:54:16,090 --> 00:54:20,490
is that he uses the same
method over and over again
1326
00:54:20,530 --> 00:54:22,190
until it fails.
1327
00:54:22,230 --> 00:54:26,240
And in the primaries, he
discovered that it didn't fail.
1328
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,070
- An outsider who read the
mood of Republican voters
1329
00:54:30,110 --> 00:54:32,890
better than anyone
now controls a party
1330
00:54:32,940 --> 00:54:35,460
that fought him every
step of the way.
1331
00:54:35,510 --> 00:54:38,160
This evening, his last
opponent dropped out,
1332
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,160
ensuring that Donald Trump
1333
00:54:40,210 --> 00:54:43,820
will be the party's first
nominee since Eisenhower
1334
00:54:43,860 --> 00:54:46,340
to run with no
political experience.
1335
00:54:46,390 --> 00:54:50,350
- I saw an organization
that was the most pathetic
1336
00:54:50,390 --> 00:54:53,040
of anything I've ever
seen in American politics.
1337
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:55,920
His polling operation was weak.
1338
00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,090
His grassroots was
almost non-existent.
1339
00:54:59,140 --> 00:55:01,970
They refused to spend
money for advertising.
1340
00:55:02,010 --> 00:55:05,230
All the elements of what you
spend or invest in the campaign
1341
00:55:05,270 --> 00:55:06,580
were not happening.
1342
00:55:06,620 --> 00:55:11,060
- We hit the 1237, right? 1237.
1343
00:55:11,110 --> 00:55:13,240
- [Reporter] Trump celebrated
the victory tonight
1344
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,630
with McDonald's.
1345
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,550
- Here I am, watching
Hillary fight,
1346
00:55:16,590 --> 00:55:18,460
and she can't close the deal.
1347
00:55:18,510 --> 00:55:20,940
And that should be such
an easy deal to close.
1348
00:55:20,990 --> 00:55:23,380
It could be we're gonna
run against Crazy Bernie.
1349
00:55:23,420 --> 00:55:24,340
That could be big.
1350
00:55:24,380 --> 00:55:25,160
[audience booing]
1351
00:55:25,210 --> 00:55:26,690
Could be Crazy Bernie.
1352
00:55:26,730 --> 00:55:29,950
He's a crazy man, but that's
okay. We like crazy people.
1353
00:55:29,990 --> 00:55:32,650
- Certainly, great
politicians master new media.
1354
00:55:32,690 --> 00:55:34,910
Right, so, FDR was
the king of radio.
1355
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,130
JFK used TV.
1356
00:55:37,180 --> 00:55:39,830
Obama used the internet
and nascent social networks
1357
00:55:39,870 --> 00:55:43,010
very well, but
Trump and Twitter,
1358
00:55:43,050 --> 00:55:46,840
it was a particularly
powerful, toxic combination.
1359
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:50,620
- Well, I think Twitter is
a unique kind of network
1360
00:55:50,670 --> 00:55:53,840
in that it brings
together a social network
1361
00:55:53,890 --> 00:55:55,240
and a broadcast network.
1362
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:56,630
[intriguing electronic music]
1363
00:55:56,670 --> 00:55:58,150
You have millions of followers,
1364
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,550
you're effectively
a broadcaster.
1365
00:56:00,590 --> 00:56:03,850
And these two modes interact.
1366
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:07,730
Sometimes a tweet goes viral,
1367
00:56:07,770 --> 00:56:11,470
where eventually millions or
tens of millions of people
1368
00:56:11,510 --> 00:56:13,430
will see that one message.
1369
00:56:13,470 --> 00:56:15,650
- It was his
understanding of Twitter
1370
00:56:15,690 --> 00:56:18,960
and how to make that
entire platform his,
1371
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,350
in a way that creates direct
intimacy with his supporters.
1372
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,790
It was unbelievable,
what he was doing.
1373
00:56:24,830 --> 00:56:27,140
And I recognized
that immediately.
1374
00:56:27,180 --> 00:56:29,710
It was like I was
sitting there going...
1375
00:56:29,750 --> 00:56:33,360
almost reverential,
like, "Oh my gosh!"
1376
00:56:33,410 --> 00:56:36,230
- It was Mr. Trump himself
1377
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:40,590
who drove that social
media platform train
1378
00:56:40,630 --> 00:56:43,460
by directly communicating
with the people,
1379
00:56:43,500 --> 00:56:46,290
and the media had to cover
the candidates' tweets.
1380
00:56:46,330 --> 00:56:48,290
- Matt, I want to put up that
tweet again this morning,
1381
00:56:48,330 --> 00:56:50,510
of course tweeting,
"I love Hispanics."
1382
00:56:50,550 --> 00:56:52,380
- I want you to look at this
graphic of one of his tweets.
1383
00:56:52,430 --> 00:56:53,640
I'm sure that you
have seen this.
1384
00:56:53,690 --> 00:56:57,170
A star that is the shape
of the Star of David.
1385
00:56:57,210 --> 00:56:59,950
- Donald Trump very
successfully used
1386
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,310
not only Twitter as a
tool in and of itself
1387
00:57:03,350 --> 00:57:06,130
but Twitter as a tool
to disrupt legacy media.
1388
00:57:06,180 --> 00:57:08,090
- I would be on a live TV
set, and I'd be mid-sentence,
1389
00:57:08,140 --> 00:57:10,440
they'd be like, "Hold on,
Kellyanne, breaking news."
1390
00:57:10,490 --> 00:57:11,840
And I'd say, "Oh, God
forbid, what happened?"
1391
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,750
And they'd say, "Your
boss, your candidate
1392
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:16,230
just tweeted the following..."
1393
00:57:16,270 --> 00:57:17,750
And I'd look at it, and they'd
ask me to comment on it.
1394
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:21,450
But he literally would
make news instantaneously.
1395
00:57:21,500 --> 00:57:23,980
- And maybe a lot of that
innermost decision-making
1396
00:57:24,020 --> 00:57:26,590
and kind of tuning of messaging
1397
00:57:26,630 --> 00:57:29,980
was happening by the
man himself, and...
1398
00:57:31,420 --> 00:57:36,430
and the speed and the agility
that you need to surf...
1399
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:41,260
a near real-time medium,
which is what Twitter is,
1400
00:57:41,300 --> 00:57:43,650
that might be a huge
strategic advantage.
1401
00:57:43,690 --> 00:57:45,780
- I just can't think
of a worse candidate
1402
00:57:45,830 --> 00:57:47,180
in the Twitter era.
1403
00:57:47,220 --> 00:57:50,050
I mean, Hillary isn't like
a bite-sized candidate
1404
00:57:50,090 --> 00:57:53,010
who would just fire off things
without thinking about them.
1405
00:57:53,050 --> 00:57:54,970
And to her credit,
a lot of people
1406
00:57:55,010 --> 00:57:57,270
would like a president who puts
a lot of thought into things
1407
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,840
before they release
them to the world.
1408
00:58:02,540 --> 00:58:06,190
There would be a whole team
to approve a simple tweet.
1409
00:58:07,330 --> 00:58:08,760
Ultimately that...
1410
00:58:08,810 --> 00:58:11,070
I think that people
saw that and could tell
1411
00:58:11,110 --> 00:58:15,510
a lack of spontaneity
or genuine emotion.
1412
00:58:15,550 --> 00:58:19,640
- I am honored to
be here amongst you
1413
00:58:19,690 --> 00:58:23,520
on behalf of what really
made this country great,
1414
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,690
working people, men and women.
1415
00:58:26,690 --> 00:58:29,170
- The new currency...
1416
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:34,140
that's rare and needed in
politics is no longer money.
1417
00:58:35,050 --> 00:58:37,880
It's attention. It's
name recognition.
1418
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:39,490
That is the new currency.
1419
00:58:39,530 --> 00:58:44,230
And Hillary Clinton and Donald
Trump had oodles of that.
1420
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,580
The difference is
how they used it.
1421
00:58:46,630 --> 00:58:48,370
[stark electronic music]
1422
00:58:48,410 --> 00:58:51,630
Hillary Clinton tried to
stay out of the spotlight,
1423
00:58:51,670 --> 00:58:54,160
away from interviews,
and just rest on the fact
1424
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,370
that she had the biggest
brand in American politics.
1425
00:58:56,420 --> 00:58:58,680
- [Reporter]
Secretary Clinton...
1426
00:58:58,730 --> 00:59:00,290
we haven't heard
from you in a month.
1427
00:59:00,340 --> 00:59:03,080
- Yeah, maybe when I finished
talking to the people here.
1428
00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:04,640
How's that?
1429
00:59:04,690 --> 00:59:08,000
- She tried to walk in a parade.
To cordon off the press...
1430
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:11,650
They were put in this
moving rope line.
1431
00:59:11,690 --> 00:59:13,650
- This is the worst
visual metaphor.
1432
00:59:13,700 --> 00:59:15,960
Before you could say she's
not talking to reporters,
1433
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,570
but you can't cover not talking.
1434
00:59:17,610 --> 00:59:19,960
You can show this image over
and over again, and it's awful.
1435
00:59:20,010 --> 00:59:22,580
- Her press strategy was
essentially to ignore us.
1436
00:59:22,620 --> 00:59:24,790
She felt like the front runner
1437
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,450
and didn't think that she
necessarily needed to talk
1438
00:59:27,490 --> 00:59:29,490
to the gaggle of reporters
1439
00:59:29,540 --> 00:59:32,760
who traveled with her
everywhere, covering
1440
00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:35,150
- I am so happy to have
all of you with me!
1441
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:36,280
- [Reporter] Have you missed us?
1442
00:59:36,330 --> 00:59:38,420
- I've been just
waiting for this moment!
1443
00:59:38,460 --> 00:59:40,510
- The relationship between
the Clinton campaign
1444
00:59:40,550 --> 00:59:43,200
and the press is just
hostile on both sides.
1445
00:59:43,250 --> 00:59:44,990
And it's early for that.
1446
00:59:45,030 --> 00:59:46,860
- She gave very few interviews.
1447
00:59:46,900 --> 00:59:50,250
She did almost no print
interviews that I'm aware of
1448
00:59:50,300 --> 00:59:51,910
before the general election.
1449
00:59:51,950 --> 00:59:54,430
- The criticism is directed at
the Clinton campaign on this.
1450
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,910
We're trying to wrap
her in bubble wrap
1451
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:58,350
this entire campaign
1452
00:59:58,390 --> 01:00:01,440
and not let her actually
associate with real people.
1453
01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,790
- Nobody wanted any kind
of moment to go wrong
1454
01:00:03,830 --> 01:00:05,490
and go viral and look bad.
1455
01:00:05,530 --> 01:00:07,880
And so I think there
was an extreme caution
1456
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,970
that prohibited her from
having more of those moments
1457
01:00:12,020 --> 01:00:13,930
that could have
ultimately helped her.
1458
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,760
- We saw a systematic
difference between members
1459
01:00:19,810 --> 01:00:23,290
of the what we call Trump
tribe and Clinton tribe.
1460
01:00:23,330 --> 01:00:27,200
just more retweets, more tweets,
more replies, more activity
1461
01:00:28,380 --> 01:00:32,690
per account from the Trump
tribe versus the Clinton tribe.
1462
01:00:32,730 --> 01:00:34,910
And so we describe
that as a passion gap.
1463
01:00:36,170 --> 01:00:38,690
And at some point, you know,
someone on our team said,
1464
01:00:38,740 --> 01:00:42,660
"It's almost like there's
a public awakening."
1465
01:00:42,700 --> 01:00:45,480
We're seeing something happening
1466
01:00:45,530 --> 01:00:49,010
in the nature of the
conversation where...
1467
01:00:50,450 --> 01:00:55,450
Donald Trump seems like a
far more serious possibility
1468
01:00:56,150 --> 01:01:00,320
than the polling numbers or
anything else would indicate.
1469
01:01:00,370 --> 01:01:02,680
- I think that the key
is that Donald Trump's
1470
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:04,810
defiant authenticity resonated,
1471
01:01:04,850 --> 01:01:07,160
and that's something I
think all politicians
1472
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:08,290
can learn from.
1473
01:01:08,330 --> 01:01:09,990
That doesn't mean simply play
1474
01:01:10,030 --> 01:01:11,810
to the lowest common
denominator every day,
1475
01:01:11,860 --> 01:01:13,210
But it does mean,
for God's sakes,
1476
01:01:13,250 --> 01:01:15,510
be yourself and talk like
a goddamn human being.
1477
01:01:16,860 --> 01:01:18,690
- What's what's something that
you always carry with you?
1478
01:01:18,730 --> 01:01:19,600
- Hot sauce.
1479
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:21,350
- Really?
1480
01:01:21,390 --> 01:01:22,170
- Yeah. Yeah.
1481
01:01:22,220 --> 01:01:23,390
- Really?
1482
01:01:23,430 --> 01:01:24,700
- Are you getting in
formation right now?
1483
01:01:24,740 --> 01:01:25,520
[laughing]
1484
01:01:25,570 --> 01:01:26,390
- Hot sauce?
1485
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,740
- Hot sauce in my bag swag?
1486
01:01:28,790 --> 01:01:29,610
- Hot sauce.
1487
01:01:29,660 --> 01:01:30,750
- Really?
- Yes!
1488
01:01:30,790 --> 01:01:31,790
- Now, listen, I
want you to know
1489
01:01:31,830 --> 01:01:33,010
people are gonna
see this and say,
1490
01:01:33,050 --> 01:01:34,100
"Okay, she's pandering
to black people."
1491
01:01:34,140 --> 01:01:36,670
[laughing]
1492
01:01:36,710 --> 01:01:37,970
- Okay.
1493
01:01:38,010 --> 01:01:39,230
Is it working?
1494
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,110
[laughing]
1495
01:01:42,150 --> 01:01:46,280
- Don't forget what a terrible
campaign Hillary Clinton ran.
1496
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,680
Her campaign, to this day,
1497
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:51,680
nobody can remember
a thing about it.
1498
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:53,070
- [Interviewer] A
quick soundcheck.
1499
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:56,210
What was written on Donald
Trump's baseball cap?
1500
01:01:56,250 --> 01:01:57,770
- "Make America great again".
1501
01:01:57,820 --> 01:02:01,080
- Make America great again.
- Make America great again.
1502
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:02,520
- Oh, make America great again?
1503
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:04,950
- [Interviewer] What was
Hillary's campaign slogan?
1504
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,520
- I'm still trying
to figure it out.
1505
01:02:07,570 --> 01:02:08,610
- Ready for Hillary?
1506
01:02:08,650 --> 01:02:09,440
I don't know.
1507
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:10,530
- I don't remember.
1508
01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:12,790
- Together?
1509
01:02:12,830 --> 01:02:14,140
Forward together?
1510
01:02:14,180 --> 01:02:15,660
- I don't know.
1511
01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:17,790
- Oh, I don't actually know
what it said on her plane.
1512
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,270
What was her slogan?
1513
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:21,970
- And she had "stronger
together", whatever that means.
1514
01:02:22,020 --> 01:02:23,890
- On one point,
being this well-known
1515
01:02:23,930 --> 01:02:26,800
made it hard for her campaign
to craft a narrative,
1516
01:02:26,850 --> 01:02:28,800
but it also made it
just hard for Hillary.
1517
01:02:28,850 --> 01:02:32,240
I mean, she's lived in this
cloistered, rarefied world
1518
01:02:32,290 --> 01:02:33,550
for a very long time.
1519
01:02:33,590 --> 01:02:35,420
And so, to emerge
from that world
1520
01:02:35,460 --> 01:02:38,070
and try to really
connect to voters
1521
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:42,250
suffering in these steel
towns where Trumpism took hold
1522
01:02:42,300 --> 01:02:44,340
I think was very difficult.
1523
01:02:44,390 --> 01:02:45,600
The sounds so old school,
1524
01:02:45,650 --> 01:02:47,950
but we wouldn't see
any Hillary yard signs.
1525
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:49,780
You saw a ton of
Trump yard signs.
1526
01:02:49,830 --> 01:02:52,830
[anxious music]
1527
01:02:52,870 --> 01:02:55,960
- I never got the sense that
they had really captured
1528
01:02:56,010 --> 01:02:58,750
the energy of people out there,
1529
01:02:58,790 --> 01:03:00,490
connected with them in that way.
1530
01:03:00,530 --> 01:03:02,660
Often you get a sense
that a candidate
1531
01:03:02,710 --> 01:03:07,710
will fight for every inch, and
she just never exuded that.
1532
01:03:08,540 --> 01:03:11,020
- It was all bullshit.
1533
01:03:11,060 --> 01:03:12,890
It was all sloganeering.
1534
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,850
- I'm just chilling
in Cedar Rapids.
1535
01:03:16,900 --> 01:03:19,330
I try to figure
out how we get them
1536
01:03:19,380 --> 01:03:22,470
to have Pokemon Go-to-the-polls.
1537
01:03:22,510 --> 01:03:24,340
[audience laughing]
1538
01:03:24,380 --> 01:03:27,780
[audience cheering]
1539
01:03:27,820 --> 01:03:29,430
- I think just viscerally
1540
01:03:29,470 --> 01:03:32,350
she missed the anger that had
taken root in the electorate.
1541
01:03:32,390 --> 01:03:35,870
- Secretary Clinton does
represent the establishment.
1542
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,830
I represent, I hope,
ordinary Americans
1543
01:03:38,870 --> 01:03:41,830
and, by the way who are
not all that enamored
1544
01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:43,360
with the establishment.
1545
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,450
- It's always been the case,
going back to 2008, even,
1546
01:03:45,490 --> 01:03:48,190
that Hillary Clinton just
wasn't an inspirational figure,
1547
01:03:48,230 --> 01:03:49,840
whether it was her
speaking ability,
1548
01:03:49,890 --> 01:03:51,150
whether it was her record,
1549
01:03:51,190 --> 01:03:55,020
whether it was the
way she saw the world.
1550
01:03:55,060 --> 01:03:56,670
It was an issue
that her campaign
1551
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:58,330
was in complete denial about.
1552
01:03:58,370 --> 01:04:01,200
They thought it was
Bernie who convinced
1553
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:04,200
a lot of left-leaning
people not to like Hillary.
1554
01:04:04,250 --> 01:04:06,120
But in fact, this
was just a fact
1555
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:08,470
that Sanders and his
campaign saw and exploited.
1556
01:04:08,510 --> 01:04:10,210
It was a preexisting
condition for Hillary
1557
01:04:10,250 --> 01:04:12,130
that people just
didn't really like her.
1558

[anxious music]
1559
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:21,480
- We have won, at this point,
45% of pledge delegates.
1560
01:04:22,350 --> 01:04:25,750
But we have only earned
7% of superdelegates.

[crowd booing]
1562
01:04:31,540 --> 01:04:34,020
So in other words, the
way the system works
1563
01:04:34,060 --> 01:04:37,150
is you have
establishment candidates
1564
01:04:37,190 --> 01:04:39,940
who win virtually all
of the superdelegates.
1565
01:04:39,980 --> 01:04:41,980
- NBC News is now
declaring Hillary Clinton
1566
01:04:42,020 --> 01:04:43,770
the presumptive
Democratic nominee.

I went down to the protests,

01:04:55,430 --> 01:04:57,560
the Bernie or Bust protests.

01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,440
who said the Democratic Party
has lost me for a generation,
1575
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:06,790
I don't have something
to believe in
1576
01:05:06,830 --> 01:05:08,700
if Bernie is not on
top of the ticket.
1577
01:05:09,700 --> 01:05:11,180
- [Protestors] We
won't vote for Hillary!
1578
01:05:11,230 --> 01:05:13,010
- [Reporter] Many Sanders
backers just aren't willing
1579
01:05:13,060 --> 01:05:14,320
to shift their loyalties
1580
01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:16,840
from the U.S. Senator's
progressive platform.
1581
01:05:16,890 --> 01:05:19,110
- I mean, that was
a tense convention.
1582
01:05:19,150 --> 01:05:20,980
- Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine
1583
01:05:21,020 --> 01:05:23,500
want to build an economy
that works for everyone...

- If I didn't know any
better, I would have thought
1589
01:05:39,690 --> 01:05:41,210
I was at Bernie Sanders'
convention last night.
1590
01:05:41,260 --> 01:05:42,650
It rose to the rafters.

[crowd booing]
1592
01:05:48,050 --> 01:05:50,660
- There was a sense that the DNC
1593
01:05:50,700 --> 01:05:53,790
had kind of tilted the
table in her favor,
1594
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:55,660
there hadn't really
been a fair contest
1595
01:05:55,710 --> 01:05:57,450
between Hillary and Bernie.
1596
01:05:57,490 --> 01:05:59,010
- There's no
question to my mind,
1597
01:05:59,060 --> 01:06:02,320
and I think no question to
any objective observer's mind,
1598
01:06:02,370 --> 01:06:05,280
that the DNC was
supporting Hillary Clinton
1599
01:06:05,330 --> 01:06:07,980
and was in opposition
to our campaign.
1600
01:06:08,020 --> 01:06:09,330

Remember hashtag rigged?
1602
01:06:11,070 --> 01:06:14,070
How offensive to
say it was rigged.
1603
01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:18,470
How dare you say that our
democracy could be rigged?
1604
01:06:18,510 --> 01:06:20,170
How dare you say that?
1605
01:06:20,210 --> 01:06:21,690
And, it was rigged.
1606
01:06:21,730 --> 01:06:24,210
- I actually think Hillary
and some of her top advisors
1607
01:06:24,260 --> 01:06:26,820
are more angry at Bernie Sanders
than they are Donald Trump.
1608
01:06:26,870 --> 01:06:29,570
They thought that he gave her
sort of a lukewarm endorsement
1609
01:06:29,610 --> 01:06:31,130
when he finally
got around to it.
1610
01:06:31,180 --> 01:06:34,310
- And I move that Hillary
Clinton be selected
1611
01:06:34,350 --> 01:06:37,400
as the nominee of
the Democratic Party
1612
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:39,620

the United States

[audience cheering]
1614

in the spirit of unity
1615
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:47,500
to suspend the rules.
1616
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,680
- Bernie Sanders lit
the place on fire.
1617
01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:58,120
I mean, he came out of
nowhere and God bless him.
1618
01:06:59,990 --> 01:07:01,250
Bernie was an Independent.
1619
01:07:01,290 --> 01:07:03,080
He agreed to run in
Democratic primaries,
1620
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:04,990
but he was an Independent.
1621
01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,560
And of course there are
going to be associations
1622
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:10,520
and friendships and loyalty
built up to somebody
1623
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:13,000
who's been a Democrat
their whole life.
1624
01:07:13,050 --> 01:07:14,390
- That's why you're
an insurgent.
1625
01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,270
You're an insurgent because
there's a status quo
1626
01:07:17,310 --> 01:07:18,660
establishment in the party,
1627
01:07:18,700 --> 01:07:20,700
and there's an
establishment candidate.
1628
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:26,880
- And so, my friends, it is
with humility, determination,
1629
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:31,800
and boundless confidence
in America's promise
1630
01:07:31,850 --> 01:07:35,150
that I accept your nomination

matched up with the mood

of the electorate
particularly badly.
1635
01:07:44,290 --> 01:07:46,640
A lot of people felt
the system was rigged,
1636
01:07:46,690 --> 01:07:49,040
and the Clintons, for
many people, and fairly,
1637
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,040
were a symbol of
a rigged system.
1638
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:54,300
- And so, you put
all that together,
1639
01:07:54,350 --> 01:07:56,700
you have a real big
problem for Hillary Clinton
1640
01:07:56,740 --> 01:07:59,790
going into that election
with a divided party
1641
01:07:59,830 --> 01:08:01,830
and an arrogant campaign
1642
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:03,700
that believed it
could not be defeated.

wanted to be president

Why?

Because I might be able

instead of voting
for Hillary Clinton.
1672
01:09:24,870 --> 01:09:27,570
- Hillary Clinton was
a perfect foil for him.
1673

She embodied, or could
be made to embody,

everything that he
said he was against.

And some of this was
just Trump's gut.
1676

And some of this is Steve
Bannon and Kellyanne Conway

and others building an
actual, coherent worldview
1678

could lose the election,

of 2% of African
American voters.
1689
01:10:05,870 --> 01:10:10,480
- By the time I came on board,
we were down in the polls.
1690
01:10:10,530 --> 01:10:13,180
I said we're way behind,
the window's closing,

but it's still open.
1692

We're way behind.
1693
01:10:14,970 --> 01:10:16,710
And he said, oh, the polls.
1694
01:10:16,750 --> 01:10:19,060
And I said, I looked at the
polls, and she's winning,
1695
01:10:19,100 --> 01:10:21,020
but she doesn't
have to. You can.
1696
01:10:21,060 --> 01:10:23,100
- She had a lot more paths
to victory than he did.
1697
01:10:23,150 --> 01:10:25,890
- He can win Florida, he
can win North Carolina,
1698
01:10:25,930 --> 01:10:29,550
and he can win Ohio
and still be short.
1699
01:10:29,590 --> 01:10:31,070
That's important.
1700
01:10:31,110 --> 01:10:34,330
He can win Arizona and still
be short. He can win Utah.
1701
01:10:34,380 --> 01:10:36,860
- And then, even then,
he's gotta go and get
1702
01:10:36,900 --> 01:10:39,640
maybe it's a Michigan
or a Wisconsin
1703
01:10:39,690 --> 01:10:41,210
to put him over the top.

not take your terms, frankly,

This is blue collar.

There are a lot of towns
1718
01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:21,990
that have been hurt
by globalization.
1719
01:11:22,030 --> 01:11:24,030

working-class men
1721

01:11:27,690 --> 01:11:29,740
Hillary is notably

as two-to-one or more,

01:11:32,220 --> 01:11:34,350
10 to 15 points weaker
than Barack Obama
1725
01:11:34,390 --> 01:11:35,740
with white, working-class men.
1726
01:11:35,790 --> 01:11:37,310
- We were competing in states
1727
01:11:37,350 --> 01:11:40,880
that Obama-Biden
had carried twice.
1728
01:11:42,530 --> 01:11:46,880
But had also elected a
Republican statewide as senator
1729
01:11:46,930 --> 01:11:48,670
and/or governor in the interim,
1730
01:11:48,710 --> 01:11:51,450
and where Hillary Clinton
had never gotten to 50%
1731
01:11:51,500 --> 01:11:53,150
and stayed there for very long.
1732
01:11:53,190 --> 01:11:56,760
- Hillary Clinton just
didn't go to these states.
1733
01:11:56,810 --> 01:11:59,810
She was hanging out
in places like Arizona
1734
01:11:59,850 --> 01:12:02,420
and Texas, inexplicably.
1735
01:12:02,460 --> 01:12:04,600
- When your allies are
putting a lot of effort
1736
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:08,910
into red states right
now, Arizona, Utah,
1737
01:12:08,950 --> 01:12:10,990
you're doing this even though
it's still neck-and-neck
1738
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:13,210
in a lot of the traditional
battleground states,
1739
01:12:13,260 --> 01:12:16,000
Ohio and Iowa, Florida.
1740
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,000
Are you guys getting
over-confident?
1741
01:12:18,050 --> 01:12:19,390
- There's a special opportunity
1742
01:12:19,440 --> 01:12:21,350
that popped up late in Arizona.
1743
01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:22,750
It is possible to win it.
1744
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:27,180
- Arizona has not, 12 of the
past 13 presidential elections,
1745
01:12:27,230 --> 01:12:28,710
has not voted for a Democrat.
1746
01:12:28,750 --> 01:12:30,670
And so you saw this
extreme confidence
1747
01:12:30,710 --> 01:12:33,150
on the part of the campaign
that they could expand the map,
1748
01:12:33,190 --> 01:12:35,060
that they could
bring in new voters
1749
01:12:35,110 --> 01:12:36,930
in places like
Arizona and Georgia
1750
01:12:36,980 --> 01:12:39,150
that are sort of going purple.
1751
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:43,030
- While Donald Trump
is up in these states,
1752
01:12:43,070 --> 01:12:46,330
saying I'm gonna make
America great again.
1753
01:12:46,380 --> 01:12:49,380
[somber music]
1754
01:12:49,420 --> 01:12:52,250
- In August, after she
had a 10-point lead
1755
01:12:52,300 --> 01:12:55,000
after her convention, after
a successful convention,
1756
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:57,870
she basically disappeared in
the Hamptons to fundraise.
1757
01:12:59,700 --> 01:13:01,310
Her campaign would get
very defensive about this:
1758
01:13:01,350 --> 01:13:03,660
we need money, we need a lot
of money to go against Trump.
1759
01:13:03,700 --> 01:13:06,350
But every single day,
Trump was doing rallies.
1760
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:07,570
[jet whooshing]
1761
01:13:07,620 --> 01:13:09,490
[stark electronic music]
1762
01:13:09,530 --> 01:13:13,060
Then she re-emerged Labor
Day, and she was sick,
1763
01:13:13,100 --> 01:13:15,450
and she just had sort
of a string of bad luck.
1764
01:13:15,490 --> 01:13:17,800
- I think that was a very
troubling moment for her.
1765
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:19,760
That was her worst
weekend in many ways.
1766
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:22,590
September 11th, very
early in the morning,
1767
01:13:22,630 --> 01:13:24,590
she had her spill.
1768
01:13:24,630 --> 01:13:27,160
[tense music]
1769
01:13:30,330 --> 01:13:34,080
- She's supposed to fight all
of these different things,
1770
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,600
and she can't make it
15 feet to her car.
1771
01:13:36,650 --> 01:13:39,080
Give me a break.
Give me a break.
1772
01:13:39,130 --> 01:13:42,130
[audience cheering]
1773
01:13:46,830 --> 01:13:48,350
- Thank God she was
okay health-wise.
1774
01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:50,490
But the worst thing for
her was two days earlier,
1775
01:13:50,530 --> 01:13:52,490
when she was caught on tape.
1776
01:13:52,530 --> 01:13:56,060
You know, to just be
grossly generalistic,
1777
01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:59,970
you could put half
of Trump's supporters
1778
01:14:00,020 --> 01:14:02,280
into what I call the
basket of deplorables.
1779
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:04,800
- Hillary Clinton
on Friday evening,
1780
01:14:04,850 --> 01:14:06,810
"basket of deplorables"
already entered
1781
01:14:06,850 --> 01:14:09,030
into the annals
of campaign flubs.
1782
01:14:09,070 --> 01:14:11,590
- They are not a
basket of anything.
1783
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:15,900
They are Americans and
they deserve your respect.
1784
01:14:15,950 --> 01:14:18,690
- [Narrator] People
like you, you and you...
1785
01:14:18,730 --> 01:14:19,990
Deplorable.
1786
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:21,560
You know what's deplorable?
1787
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,080
Hillary Clinton
viciously demonizing
1788
01:14:24,130 --> 01:14:26,390
hardworking people like you.
1789
01:14:27,440 --> 01:14:31,400
- It as a reflection perfectly
of what the coastal elites
1790
01:14:31,440 --> 01:14:34,270
in the United States
feel about the people
1791
01:14:34,310 --> 01:14:37,790
trapped in the
working-class counties
1792
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:39,320
and cities of the country
1793
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,930
that have been decimated
by globalization.
1794
01:14:43,230 --> 01:14:47,460
- And it was like, wow, we
thought you thought that of us,
1795
01:14:47,500 --> 01:14:48,890
and now we know for sure.
1796
01:14:50,590 --> 01:14:52,630
[upbeat music]
1797
01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:55,680
[audience cheering]
1798
01:14:59,470 --> 01:15:01,560
- She is a really
gifted debater,
1799
01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,560
maybe one of the best
debaters we've seen
1800
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:04,780
on a stage in a long time.
1801
01:15:04,820 --> 01:15:07,870
- Why won't he release
his tax returns?
1802
01:15:07,910 --> 01:15:10,130
And I think there may
be a couple of reasons.
1803
01:15:10,170 --> 01:15:13,870
First, maybe he's not as
rich as he says he is.
1804
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:17,570
Second, maybe he's not as
charitable as he claims to be.
1805
01:15:17,620 --> 01:15:18,790
- We're gonna come up with
three or four clever things
1806
01:15:18,830 --> 01:15:21,140
that were gonna hit
Trump with tonight,
1807
01:15:21,180 --> 01:15:23,490
and you'll say them in
the following sequence.
1808
01:15:23,540 --> 01:15:26,630
- I call it Trumped
up trickle down,
1809
01:15:26,670 --> 01:15:28,580
because that's exactly
what it would be.
1810
01:15:28,630 --> 01:15:31,280
- And she was picking out
her outfit to look perfect.
1811
01:15:31,330 --> 01:15:33,720
- He's showing up with
a tie down to his ankle.
1812
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,760
Give me the microphone.
I'm ready to go.
1813
01:15:35,810 --> 01:15:38,900
- I don't believe that
Hillary has the stamina.
1814
01:15:38,940 --> 01:15:39,730
- [Moderator] Let's
let her respond.
1815
01:15:39,770 --> 01:15:41,600
- Woo! Okay!
1816
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:44,160
[audience laughing]
1817
01:15:44,210 --> 01:15:46,990
- He stood there,
waiting to be exposed.
1818
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:50,000
- As soon as he travels
to 112 countries
1819
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:53,780
and negotiates a peace
deal, a cease fire,
1820
01:15:53,830 --> 01:15:55,610
or even spends 11 hours
1821
01:15:55,650 --> 01:15:58,610
testifying in front of a
congressional committee,
1822
01:15:58,660 --> 01:16:00,920
he can talk to me about stamina.
1823
01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:02,570
- But Hillary invested a lot,
1824
01:16:02,620 --> 01:16:06,140
instead of doing rallies
that 20,000 people
1825
01:16:06,190 --> 01:16:08,010
on an amazing night would see,
1826
01:16:08,060 --> 01:16:12,020
how about we just bunker down
and invest in these debates?
1827
01:16:12,060 --> 01:16:14,630
- And I just left Detroit,
and I just left Philadelphia,
1828
01:16:14,670 --> 01:16:15,980
and I just, you
know, you've seen me,
1829
01:16:16,020 --> 01:16:17,500
I've been all over the place.
1830
01:16:18,550 --> 01:16:21,160
You decided to stay
home, and that's okay.
1831
01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:23,330
- I think Donald
just criticized me
1832
01:16:23,380 --> 01:16:26,120
for preparing for this debate.
1833
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:28,250
And yes, I did.
1834
01:16:29,170 --> 01:16:30,780
And you know what
else I prepared for?
1835
01:16:30,820 --> 01:16:32,520
I prepared to be President.
1836
01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:34,260
And I think that's a good thing.
1837
01:16:34,300 --> 01:16:36,220
[audience applauding]
1838
01:16:36,260 --> 01:16:39,260
- I think the consensus was
that she won all of them.
1839
01:16:39,310 --> 01:16:42,140
- Did anybody see that
debate last night?
1840
01:16:42,180 --> 01:16:43,140
[audience cheering]
1841
01:16:43,180 --> 01:16:45,660
[somber music]
1842
01:16:45,700 --> 01:16:47,010
Oh!
1843
01:16:47,050 --> 01:16:47,970
Yes!
1844
01:16:50,060 --> 01:16:52,280
One down, two to go.
1845
01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:53,630
- I want a word or phrase
1846
01:16:53,670 --> 01:16:57,280
to describe Donald Trump's
performance tonight.
1847
01:16:57,320 --> 01:16:59,150
- Strong start, weak finish.
1848
01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:00,850
- Missed opportunities.
1849
01:17:00,890 --> 01:17:02,460
- Bombastic.
1850
01:17:02,500 --> 01:17:03,680
- Not presidential.
1851
01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:04,810
- Sloppy.
1852
01:17:04,850 --> 01:17:06,030
- I want a word or
phrase to describe
1853
01:17:06,070 --> 01:17:07,680
Hillary Clinton's performance.
1854
01:17:07,730 --> 01:17:08,640
- Prepared.
1855
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:09,470
- Firm.
1856
01:17:09,510 --> 01:17:10,770
- Powerful.
1857
01:17:10,820 --> 01:17:13,340
- I think she had one
of the best debate preps
1858
01:17:13,380 --> 01:17:15,040
that I have seen in
the last 25 years.
1859
01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,690
- I think she came
across more presidential.
1860
01:17:17,740 --> 01:17:18,740
- It seemed, for all the world,
1861
01:17:18,780 --> 01:17:20,560
like something of a victory lap.
1862
01:17:20,610 --> 01:17:21,960
- Yeah, and I think
Hillary Clinton
1863
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:23,570
deserves a victory
lap this morning.
1864
01:17:23,610 --> 01:17:25,870
[crowd cheering]
1865
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:27,480
- One history
professor, meanwhile,
1866
01:17:27,530 --> 01:17:30,050
says that Donald Trump will be
1867
01:17:30,100 --> 01:17:32,100
the next leader of our country.
1868
01:17:32,140 --> 01:17:34,710
- Professor Allan Lichtman
from American University,
1869
01:17:34,750 --> 01:17:36,360
good enough to join us now.
1870
01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:38,930
- I delivered my
Trump prediction
1871
01:17:38,970 --> 01:17:43,020
in a Washington Post
interview in September, 2016,
1872
01:17:43,070 --> 01:17:45,290
and people wondered if
I had gotten too old
1873
01:17:45,330 --> 01:17:46,900
and lost my sanity.
1874
01:17:46,940 --> 01:17:50,680
My system forgets the
pundits, forgets the polls,
1875
01:17:50,730 --> 01:17:53,730
does not look at the day-to-day
events of the campaign.
1876
01:17:53,770 --> 01:17:56,950
I don't look at debates.
I don't look at ads.
1877
01:17:56,990 --> 01:17:59,390
I don't look at campaign tricks.
1878
01:17:59,430 --> 01:18:01,740
And I predict
elections in advance.
1879
01:18:01,780 --> 01:18:04,300
In other words, I put
myself on the line
1880
01:18:04,350 --> 01:18:09,050
and have been doing so
successfully since 1984.
1881
01:18:09,090 --> 01:18:13,490
And for 32 years, everyone has
asked me the same question:
1882
01:18:13,530 --> 01:18:16,270
Couldn't there be
an October surprise?
1883
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:19,150
Couldn't there be
something so extraordinary
1884
01:18:20,020 --> 01:18:21,760
that it could turn
around your prediction?
1885
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,800
And there never has
been an October surprise
1886
01:18:24,850 --> 01:18:26,200
that's doomed a candidate.
1887
01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:28,720
Everybody talks about it,
but it's never happened.
1888
01:18:31,940 --> 01:18:35,030
[gentle vocal music]
1889
01:18:49,700 --> 01:18:51,700
- I just start kissing
them. It's like a magnet.
1890
01:18:51,740 --> 01:18:52,530
You just kiss.
1891
01:18:52,570 --> 01:18:53,350
[laughing]
1892
01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:54,620
I don't even wait.
1893
01:18:54,660 --> 01:18:56,050
And when you're a star,
they let you do it.
1894
01:18:56,100 --> 01:18:56,920
You can do anything.
1895
01:18:56,970 --> 01:18:57,790
- Whatever you want.
1896
01:18:57,840 --> 01:18:59,320
- Grab 'em by the pussy.
1897
01:18:59,360 --> 01:19:00,270
[laughing]
1898
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:01,320
You can do anything.
1899
01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:06,980
- My assumption from the
bus is that he was done.
1900
01:19:07,020 --> 01:19:08,670
- A recording of Donald Trump,
1901
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:11,070
made more than a decade
ago, has surfaced.
1902
01:19:11,110 --> 01:19:13,940
It is lewd, it is vulgar,
and we caution you,
1903
01:19:13,980 --> 01:19:16,030
you won't want young
children to hear it.
1904
01:19:16,070 --> 01:19:17,330
- Every single Republican
1905
01:19:17,380 --> 01:19:19,340
is going to have to
answer the question,
1906
01:19:19,380 --> 01:19:21,730
what did you do the
day you saw the tape
1907
01:19:21,770 --> 01:19:24,650
of this man boasting about
grabbing a woman's pussy?
1908
01:19:24,690 --> 01:19:25,470
Period!
1909
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:26,650
- All right. We'll be-
1910
01:19:26,690 --> 01:19:27,470
Will you please stop
saying that word?
1911
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:28,300
My daughter is listening.
1912
01:19:28,340 --> 01:19:31,520
[overlapping shouts]
1913
01:19:31,570 --> 01:19:33,090
Don't tell me you're
offended when I say pussy,
1914
01:19:33,130 --> 01:19:35,400
but you're not offended
when Donald Trump says it
1915
01:19:35,440 --> 01:19:36,700
- Exactly.
- I am very offended.
1916
01:19:36,740 --> 01:19:39,140
- What was your response
when you first heard it?
1917
01:19:39,180 --> 01:19:40,530
- Horrible remarks.
1918
01:19:40,570 --> 01:19:42,580
They're remarks you
certainly don't want to hear
1919
01:19:42,620 --> 01:19:45,010
from anyone, much less a
presidential candidate.
1920
01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:51,410
- This was a powerful individual
speaking freely and openly
1921
01:19:51,450 --> 01:19:53,810
about sexually
predatory behavior.
1922
01:19:53,850 --> 01:19:55,590
- I saw it, and I said
the election is over.
1923
01:19:55,630 --> 01:19:57,070
There's no way you
come back from this.
1924
01:19:57,110 --> 01:19:58,460
Folks are gonna stay home.
1925
01:19:58,510 --> 01:20:01,120
- This race is over
1926
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,950
Tomorrow morning, the
money will dry up,
1927
01:20:03,990 --> 01:20:05,950
the Republicans
will start to hide.
1928
01:20:05,990 --> 01:20:08,860
[anxious music]
1929
01:20:08,910 --> 01:20:10,260
- One top Republican said to me,
1930
01:20:10,300 --> 01:20:12,650
we're gonna to see the
fastest cut and run
1931
01:20:12,690 --> 01:20:14,350
in American political history.
1932
01:20:14,390 --> 01:20:17,180
- I'm not sure of the Republican
party's gonna survive.
1933
01:20:17,220 --> 01:20:20,350
- The fundraisers, the donors,
they're all walking away.
1934
01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:24,270
- I'm out. I can no longer
endorse Donald Donald Trump.
1935
01:20:24,310 --> 01:20:26,320
- I think Donald Trump
should step aside,
1936
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,230
which I've been asked
many times today.
1937
01:20:28,270 --> 01:20:29,100
Yes, I do.
1938
01:20:30,670 --> 01:20:33,850
- I passed and a TV...
1939
01:20:33,890 --> 01:20:36,330
that literally said Trump's
female campaign manager
1940
01:20:36,370 --> 01:20:37,720
expected to quit.
1941
01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:39,550
You know, she's got
four young children.
1942
01:20:39,590 --> 01:20:43,330
She's a devout Catholic.
There's no way she can stay.
1943
01:20:43,380 --> 01:20:45,420
- How she stood up
there and defended him
1944
01:20:45,470 --> 01:20:47,470
when nobody else was
willing to do so.
1945
01:20:47,510 --> 01:20:51,250
- This is suggesting
sexual assault, and-
1946
01:20:51,300 --> 01:20:52,820
- That's a very
unfortunate phrase,
1947
01:20:52,860 --> 01:20:54,300
and people really
should stop using that.
1948
01:20:54,340 --> 01:20:55,650
- Why?
1949
01:20:55,690 --> 01:20:57,170
- Because I know him
better, and I know better.
1950
01:20:57,220 --> 01:20:58,390
- But it's what he said.
1951
01:20:58,430 --> 01:20:59,700
- He did not say the
word sexual assault.
1952
01:20:59,740 --> 01:21:00,830
- No.
1953
01:21:00,870 --> 01:21:02,440
- And I remember
watching her, thinking,
1954
01:21:02,480 --> 01:21:04,920
A, that's a very courageous
thing for a woman to be doing;
1955
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:07,140
secondly, it was
really helping him.
1956
01:21:07,180 --> 01:21:10,790
It managed to take the
sting out of the tail.
1957
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:14,060
- Nobody was saying,
oh, it's nothing.
1958
01:21:14,100 --> 01:21:15,840
- [Reporter] This was
locker room banter,
1959
01:21:15,890 --> 01:21:17,450
I apologize for it.
1960
01:21:18,890 --> 01:21:20,800
- Mr. Trump apologized for it.
1961
01:21:20,850 --> 01:21:22,280
He spoke about it.
1962
01:21:22,330 --> 01:21:24,290
- I've never said
I'm a perfect person
1963
01:21:24,330 --> 01:21:26,810
nor pretended to be
someone that I'm not.
1964
01:21:26,850 --> 01:21:30,250
I've said some foolish things,
but there's a big difference
1965
01:21:30,290 --> 01:21:33,470
between the words and
actions of other people.
1966
01:21:33,510 --> 01:21:36,080
Bill Clinton has
actually abused women.
1967
01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,650
- And I felt it was
really important
1968
01:21:38,690 --> 01:21:42,650
for us to talk about what he
would do for you as president,
1969
01:21:42,700 --> 01:21:46,920
transport you away from this
moment and into his presidency
1970
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:48,880
and the promises he was making.
1971
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:52,010
And I did famously say there's
a big difference to voters,
1972
01:21:52,050 --> 01:21:53,320
and indeed all Americans,
1973
01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:56,970
between what offends you
and what affects you,
1974
01:21:57,020 --> 01:21:58,490
and voters were
making that choice.
1975
01:21:58,540 --> 01:22:00,240
- All men do it,
and women do it.
1976
01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:01,850
- Honestly, you
gotta stick with him.
1977
01:22:01,890 --> 01:22:03,060
Hillary's no better.
1978
01:22:03,110 --> 01:22:04,410
I mean, she's just
lying through her teeth
1979
01:22:04,460 --> 01:22:05,980
left and right,
over and over again.
1980
01:22:06,020 --> 01:22:08,680
Here's the thing. He's not
running to be the Pope.
1981
01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:11,420
Look at the culture
of our country.
1982
01:22:11,460 --> 01:22:14,990
- I don't care! Nobody cares!
1983
01:22:15,030 --> 01:22:18,170
- Hillary Clinton said that
the women who make allegations
1984
01:22:18,210 --> 01:22:19,390
deserve to be heard,
1985
01:22:19,430 --> 01:22:21,470
except the ones who
accused her husband!
1986
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:23,130
- If I remember, October
7th this happens,
1987
01:22:23,170 --> 01:22:25,650
October 8th, we have a
meeting in Trump Tower.
1988
01:22:25,700 --> 01:22:27,310
He knew people
were going to have
1989
01:22:28,130 --> 01:22:29,310
some tough recommendations.
1990
01:22:29,350 --> 01:22:31,010
Reince Priebus told
him to drop out,
1991
01:22:31,050 --> 01:22:35,270
drop out or stay in and
lose by the most in history.
1992
01:22:35,310 --> 01:22:40,100
But, as is Donald J. Trump's
custom, he did it his way.
1993
01:22:40,150 --> 01:22:43,320
There was no time for him
to be inauthentic and phony.
1994
01:22:43,370 --> 01:22:44,930
And so I think people saw that,
1995
01:22:44,980 --> 01:22:48,680
and they probably thought he
would fold in the next debate,
1996
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:50,760
but it almost reinvigorated him.
1997
01:22:50,810 --> 01:22:51,980
And then of course, you know
1998
01:22:52,030 --> 01:22:53,680
the Clinton accusers
were there as well.
1999
01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,120
- There you see in the middle
of your screen, Donald Trump,
2000
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,990
but from left to
right, Kathleen Willey
2001
01:23:00,030 --> 01:23:02,520
Juanita Broaddrick, then
Donald Trump in the middle.
2002
01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:06,080
These are women who have
made very strong accusations
2003
01:23:06,130 --> 01:23:07,610
against Bill Clinton.
2004
01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:10,740
- It was several people's idea.
2005
01:23:11,650 --> 01:23:13,400
And...
2006
01:23:13,440 --> 01:23:17,270
it was an idea that had been
floated for a while though.
2007
01:23:17,310 --> 01:23:19,010
Hillary Clinton, and
really Mark Cuban,
2008
01:23:19,050 --> 01:23:21,360
made a big deal that he was
gonna go sit in the front row
2009
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:22,930
and torment Donald Trump.
2010
01:23:23,930 --> 01:23:26,150
And so it was like, well,
we'll see you one Mark Cuban,
2011
01:23:26,190 --> 01:23:29,540
and we'll raise you four
or five Clinton accusers.
2012
01:23:30,460 --> 01:23:31,590
[chuckles]
2013
01:23:31,630 --> 01:23:33,070
See how much fun I had?
2014
01:23:33,110 --> 01:23:34,550
[dramatic music]
2015
01:23:34,590 --> 01:23:38,590
What he's basically saying
is, hey, go fuck yourself.
2016
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:42,120
I'm not going to
be attacked by you,
2017
01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:45,910
who's now all of a sudden
the champion of women.
2018
01:23:45,950 --> 01:23:49,560
- If you look at a Bill
Clinton, far worse.
2019
01:23:49,610 --> 01:23:51,780
Mine are words,
and his was action.
2020
01:23:51,830 --> 01:23:54,350
- What he basically says is
2021
01:23:55,440 --> 01:24:00,270
both sides are guilty, let's
muddy the contrast here,
2022
01:24:00,310 --> 01:24:02,050
even though Hillary Clinton
is in some ways the victim,
2023
01:24:02,100 --> 01:24:04,060
obviously, of her
husband's infidelity.
2024
01:24:04,100 --> 01:24:08,100
- So you can say any
way you want to say it,
2025
01:24:08,150 --> 01:24:10,840
but Bill Clinton was
abusive to women.
2026
01:24:10,890 --> 01:24:13,060
Hillary Clinton attacked
those same women
2027
01:24:13,930 --> 01:24:15,890
and attacked them viciously.
2028
01:24:15,940 --> 01:24:17,420
Four of them are here tonight.
2029
01:24:17,460 --> 01:24:20,770
- He gave the right wing
something to hold on to.
2030
01:24:20,810 --> 01:24:22,070
And they really-
2031
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:23,730
The only thing uniting
the Republican coalition
2032
01:24:23,770 --> 01:24:25,690
isn't Donald Trump; it's
hatred of Hillary Clinton.
2033
01:24:25,730 --> 01:24:26,820
[intense music]
2034
01:24:26,860 --> 01:24:29,120
[faint chatter]
2035
01:24:29,170 --> 01:24:31,170
- And he does have a way,
this is what many people
2036
01:24:31,210 --> 01:24:33,260
right of center in this
country like about him,
2037
01:24:33,300 --> 01:24:36,830
of not letting
Democrats off the hook
2038
01:24:36,870 --> 01:24:38,130
for their bad behavior.
2039
01:24:38,180 --> 01:24:39,260
I'd like to know, Anderson,
2040
01:24:39,310 --> 01:24:40,960
why aren't you
bringing up the emails?
2041
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:42,400
I'd like to know why aren't you
2042
01:24:42,440 --> 01:24:43,270
getting to the emails?
- We brought up the emails.
2043
01:24:43,310 --> 01:24:44,180
- No, it hasn't. It hasn't.
2044
01:24:44,230 --> 01:24:46,140
And it hasn't been
finished at all.
2045
01:24:46,180 --> 01:24:47,580
- Trump had a lot of luck,
2046
01:24:47,620 --> 01:24:50,800
in that the FBI was...
2047
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:52,840
very vocal about
their investigation
2048
01:24:52,890 --> 01:24:54,670
into Hillary's private server.
2049
01:24:54,710 --> 01:24:58,460
- There is evidence that
they were extremely careless
2050
01:24:58,500 --> 01:25:00,460
in their handling
of very sensitive,
2051
01:25:00,500 --> 01:25:02,160
highly classified information.
2052
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:04,200
- [Reporter] Questions
over a classified email.
2053
01:25:04,250 --> 01:25:05,460
- Email account.
2054
01:25:05,510 --> 01:25:07,160
- [Reporter] Emails,
in one form or another,
2055
01:25:07,210 --> 01:25:10,160
they have been dogging Clinton
throughout this campaign.
2056
01:25:10,210 --> 01:25:12,170
- Two years after
she had left office
2057
01:25:12,210 --> 01:25:13,560
for it to become clear
2058
01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:15,560
that she had been using
this private email
2059
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,480
and that she had handed
over 30,000 emails,
2060
01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:21,310
and that 31,000, almost 32,000,
2061
01:25:21,350 --> 01:25:24,180
had been deleted
in this process.
2062
01:25:24,220 --> 01:25:29,440
- She deleted the emails...
She has to go to jail
2063
01:25:29,490 --> 01:25:31,190
His narrative of
"Crooked Hillary",
2064
01:25:31,230 --> 01:25:32,670
he had this giant data point
2065
01:25:32,710 --> 01:25:34,880
of this looming
FBI investigation.
2066
01:25:34,930 --> 01:25:37,670
- I didn't think I'd say
this, but I'm going to say it.
2067
01:25:37,710 --> 01:25:40,930
And I hate to say
it, but if I win,
2068
01:25:40,980 --> 01:25:43,850
I am going to instruct
my Attorney General
2069
01:25:44,890 --> 01:25:49,330
to get a special prosecutor
to look into your situation.
2070
01:25:49,380 --> 01:25:52,640
- It's just awfully good that
someone with the temperament
2071
01:25:52,690 --> 01:25:56,560
of Donald Trump is not in charge
of the law in our country.
2072
01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:57,820
- Because you'd be in jail.
2073
01:25:57,860 --> 01:25:58,820
- [Moderator] Secretary Clinton-
2074
01:25:58,870 --> 01:26:01,000
[audience laughing and cheering]
2075
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:03,910
- The fact that he was
willing to say to her face
2076
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:06,790
on national television,
"You belong in jail,"
2077
01:26:06,830 --> 01:26:09,310
is exactly what voters
wanted to hear from him
2078
01:26:09,350 --> 01:26:11,490
to know that he was serious.
2079
01:26:11,530 --> 01:26:14,490
- [Crowd] Lock her
up! Lock her up!
2080
01:26:14,530 --> 01:26:16,580
Lock her up! Lock her up!
2081
01:26:18,060 --> 01:26:19,540
- It's all right.
2082
01:26:19,580 --> 01:26:21,190
- We're gonna beat her on
November 8th. That's better.
2083
01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:22,370
[audience cheering]
2084
01:26:22,410 --> 01:26:26,020
- We're gonna beat
her on November 8th.
2085
01:26:26,070 --> 01:26:27,680
- Three weeks isn't
typically too early
2086
01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:30,240
for the October surprise.
2087
01:26:30,290 --> 01:26:33,070
But with our current
short attention spans,
2088
01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:35,950
courtesy of social media,
Twitter and other things,
2089
01:26:35,990 --> 01:26:37,820
three weeks actually,
I think, was too early.
2090
01:26:37,860 --> 01:26:40,210
Instead, there was time for
the Comey letter to come out
2091
01:26:40,250 --> 01:26:43,080
and resuscitate all those
concerns about Hillary Clinton.
2092
01:26:44,610 --> 01:26:46,910
- They're reopening
the investigation
2093
01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:48,700
into crooked Hillary Clinton.
2094
01:26:50,440 --> 01:26:53,270
Crooked Hillary. She is crooked.
2095
01:26:53,310 --> 01:26:55,050
She is a crooked one.
2096
01:26:55,100 --> 01:26:58,320
- A new possible
investigation by the FBI
2097
01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:00,190
into Hillary Clinton's emails.
2098
01:27:00,230 --> 01:27:02,280
- [Reporter] Just 11
days before the election,
2099
01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:04,410
the announcement
creating shock waves.
2100
01:27:04,450 --> 01:27:07,150
The FBI reopening
the investigation
2101
01:27:07,190 --> 01:27:09,720
into Hillary
Clinton's email use.
2102
01:27:09,760 --> 01:27:11,980
- We are 11 days out
2103
01:27:12,030 --> 01:27:14,850
from perhaps the most
important national election
2104
01:27:14,900 --> 01:27:16,160
of our lifetimes.
2105
01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:18,470
So the American
people deserve to get
2106
01:27:18,510 --> 01:27:21,640
the full and complete
facts immediately.
2107
01:27:21,690 --> 01:27:25,300
- The FBI situation
significantly hurt
2108
01:27:25,340 --> 01:27:27,300
- Their outrage today
certainly suggests
2109
01:27:27,350 --> 01:27:29,170
that they are
nervous about this.
2110
01:27:29,220 --> 01:27:31,910
They are furious that this came
11 days before election day.
2111
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:34,180
- Donald Trump,
meanwhile, and his team
2112
01:27:34,220 --> 01:27:36,920
clearly reveling in
this latest plot twist.
2113
01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:40,840
- The FBI, after
discovering new email...
2114
01:27:42,970 --> 01:27:44,800
The news this morning is...
2115
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:48,240
This is bigger than Watergate.
2116
01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:49,370
This is bigger.
2117
01:27:49,410 --> 01:27:51,240
- And if you look
at the trend line,
2118
01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:54,760
Hillary had peaked shortly
after the three debates,
2119
01:27:54,810 --> 01:27:57,810
which she was thought to
have won by most observers.
2120
01:27:57,850 --> 01:28:00,640
And then there was
a gradual tightening
2121
01:28:00,680 --> 01:28:03,030
all the way up
until election day,
2122
01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:06,470
and the Comey letter in the
waning days of the campaign
2123
01:28:06,510 --> 01:28:08,040
accelerated that.
2124
01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:11,170
The question, though, that
a lot of Democrats had,
2125
01:28:11,210 --> 01:28:12,650
why was she ever in a position
2126
01:28:12,690 --> 01:28:14,480
where that could
have been decisive?
2127
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:16,480
To most people's minds,
2128
01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:20,220
to most of the conventional
political class's thinking,
2129
01:28:20,270 --> 01:28:23,400
this is someone she should
have been beating by 20 points.
2130
01:28:23,440 --> 01:28:25,620
This was a bigger
issue that she had.
2131
01:28:25,660 --> 01:28:27,010
It was a bigger issue
2132
01:28:27,060 --> 01:28:29,670
that she was never
able to put Trump away.
2133
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:33,320
[jet whooshing]
2134
01:28:33,370 --> 01:28:34,460
- [Air Traffic
Control] One, zero.
2135
01:28:34,500 --> 01:28:36,280
Runway two, three
clear for takeoff.
2136
01:28:36,330 --> 01:28:38,460
Contact departure is 126.55
2137
01:28:38,500 --> 01:28:41,420
Have a nice flight, and thanks
for making ATC great again.
2138
01:28:43,250 --> 01:28:45,070
- [Reporter] Tonight,
Donald Trump,
2139
01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:47,030
with one last
battleground blitz.
2140
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:48,950
A whirlwind sprint
to the finish.
2141
01:28:48,990 --> 01:28:50,860
Eight States in 24 hours
2142
01:28:51,820 --> 01:28:53,780
- Part of it was the
reality of budget.
2143
01:28:53,820 --> 01:28:56,560
We were understaffed and
under-resourced financially
2144
01:28:56,610 --> 01:28:57,780
and had to become creative.
2145
01:28:57,830 --> 01:29:00,350
[jet whooshing]
2146
01:29:00,390 --> 01:29:02,400
- You have one to
make every dream
2147
01:29:02,440 --> 01:29:04,960
you ever dreamed for
your country come true.
2148
01:29:06,530 --> 01:29:07,970
[crowd applauding]
2149
01:29:08,010 --> 01:29:11,490
Real change also means
restoring honesty to government.
2150
01:29:11,540 --> 01:29:13,490
First thing you should
do is get rid of Clinton.
2151
01:29:15,370 --> 01:29:18,150
- But our two greatest assets
all through the campaign
2152
01:29:18,190 --> 01:29:19,850
were Donald J. Trump
and Michael R. Pence.
2153
01:29:19,890 --> 01:29:21,150
And they were willing
to go anywhere.
2154
01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:22,550
And they were willing to
go to many stops a day
2155
01:29:22,590 --> 01:29:24,200
those last four weeks.
2156
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:26,990
They were doing five, six,
seven stops a day each.
2157
01:29:27,030 --> 01:29:29,290
- This is the last
day of our campaign.
2158
01:29:29,340 --> 01:29:30,950
Who would have believed it?
2159
01:29:30,990 --> 01:29:34,430
They say it's the single
greatest movement,
2160
01:29:34,470 --> 01:29:36,170
politically speaking...
2161
01:29:36,210 --> 01:29:37,560
[audience cheering]
2162
01:29:37,610 --> 01:29:39,300
in the history of this country.
2163
01:29:39,350 --> 01:29:40,700
Could you believe that?
Can you believe it?
2164
01:29:40,740 --> 01:29:43,440
[audience cheering]
2165
01:29:43,480 --> 01:29:45,000
- Coming in, yes,
we do see the lines,
2166
01:29:45,050 --> 01:29:46,660
we see the rallies,
we see all the people.
2167
01:29:46,700 --> 01:29:48,270
But will they vote?
2168
01:29:48,310 --> 01:29:51,970
No, they waited in line in a
tent for two days in the rain
2169
01:29:52,010 --> 01:29:54,620
just to have a seat in
a 20,000 person arena,
2170
01:29:54,670 --> 01:29:57,360
but they're not going to
show up on election day.
2171
01:29:57,410 --> 01:30:02,410
- So it's now officially
Tuesday, November 8th.
2172
01:30:03,370 --> 01:30:06,370
[audience cheering]
2173
01:30:09,380 --> 01:30:11,810
Did you ever think you'd
be hearing a major speech
2174
01:30:11,860 --> 01:30:14,380
at around close to one
o'clock in the morning?
2175
01:30:14,430 --> 01:30:15,640
Are we crazy?
2176
01:30:15,690 --> 01:30:16,470
[audience cheering]
2177
01:30:16,510 --> 01:30:18,340
And we don't need...
2178
01:30:18,390 --> 01:30:22,350
We don't need Jay-Z or Beyonce.
2179
01:30:22,390 --> 01:30:26,790
We don't need Jon Bon Jovi.
2180
01:30:26,830 --> 01:30:29,050
We don't need Lady Gaga.
2181
01:30:31,570 --> 01:30:36,580
All we need is great ideas
to make America great again.
2182
01:30:37,140 --> 01:30:39,150
That's all we need.
That's all we need.
2183
01:30:39,190 --> 01:30:42,190
[audience cheering]
2184
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:48,240
- Hillary's closing
message was very much
2185
01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:51,980
about Trump's unfitness
for the presidency.
2186
01:30:52,030 --> 01:30:54,470
She thought she could sway
a lot of Republican-leaning,
2187
01:30:54,510 --> 01:30:57,640
suburban, white,
college educated women
2188
01:30:57,690 --> 01:31:01,300
by pointing out how
how offensive Trump was
2189
01:31:01,340 --> 01:31:02,520
to so many people.
2190
01:31:02,560 --> 01:31:06,430
- There is a clear
choice in this election.
2191
01:31:07,650 --> 01:31:12,790
A choice between
division or unity.
2192
01:31:12,830 --> 01:31:16,230
Between strong,
steady leadership
2193
01:31:16,270 --> 01:31:20,970
or a loose cannon who could
put everything at risk.
2194
01:31:21,010 --> 01:31:22,280
[booing]
2195
01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:25,540
Because none of us, none
of us want to wake up
2196
01:31:25,580 --> 01:31:30,280
on Wednesday morning and
wish we had done more.
2197
01:31:30,330 --> 01:31:32,630
[anxious music]
2198
01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:35,980
I think we can all agree
it's been a long campaign.
2199
01:31:36,030 --> 01:31:38,990
But tomorrow, you get to
pick our next president.
2200
01:31:39,030 --> 01:31:41,730
- Her campaign is not
cocky, but confident.
2201
01:31:41,770 --> 01:31:44,950
They believe that victory
is well within their grasp.
2202
01:31:44,990 --> 01:31:47,560
She is holding her
election night watch party
2203
01:31:47,610 --> 01:31:49,780
in an atrium that
is conveniently
2204
01:31:49,820 --> 01:31:54,090
and symbolically equipped,
Gayle, with a glass ceiling.
2205
01:31:54,130 --> 01:31:57,400
- We have the
presidency at about 89%
2206
01:31:57,440 --> 01:31:59,230
For Hillary Clinton.
2207
01:31:59,270 --> 01:32:00,840
- I'm calling it.
2208
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:04,320
Hillary Clinton, the winner
of this presidential election.
2209
01:32:04,360 --> 01:32:06,280
- The president's race is over.
2210
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:08,360
- Let's make history together.
2211
01:32:08,410 --> 01:32:10,760
I'm Hillary Clinton
and, one last time,
2212
01:32:10,800 --> 01:32:12,590
I approve this message.
2213
01:32:17,770 --> 01:32:21,290
- The day before the election
I got a call, off the record,
2214
01:32:21,330 --> 01:32:22,680
from senior members
of the campaign
2215
01:32:22,730 --> 01:32:24,380
who were affiliated
with the RNC.
2216
01:32:24,420 --> 01:32:26,820
And they were calling a
bunch of editors in chief,
2217
01:32:26,860 --> 01:32:28,820
and they're saying, "Look,
we're gonna lose tomorrow,
2218
01:32:28,860 --> 01:32:30,870
but we want you to know
it's not our fault.
2219
01:32:30,910 --> 01:32:33,520
We've got the greatest data
operation in human history."
2220
01:32:33,560 --> 01:32:35,520
And I said, "Okay, well, how
bad do you think it's gonna be?
2221
01:32:35,570 --> 01:32:37,000
You think you're gonna feel...
2222
01:32:37,050 --> 01:32:39,350
You think you're gonna
keep the Senate?"
2223
01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:40,960
Long beat.
2224
01:32:41,010 --> 01:32:43,140
And the operative replied, "We
feel good about the House."
2225
01:32:43,180 --> 01:32:46,710
[intense electronic music]
2226
01:32:59,630 --> 01:33:02,380
[crowd cheering]
2227
01:33:10,860 --> 01:33:12,860
- She wins her
state of Illinois,
2228
01:33:12,910 --> 01:33:16,170
New Jersey, and Massachusetts,
another 11 electoral votes,
2229
01:33:16,220 --> 01:33:19,650
Maryland, carries the state
of Rhode Island, Delaware.
2230
01:33:19,700 --> 01:33:22,220
- Donald Trump has
won the state of Ohio.
2231
01:33:22,260 --> 01:33:23,960
No Republican has ever
won the White House
2232
01:33:24,010 --> 01:33:25,790
without winning Ohio.
2233
01:33:25,830 --> 01:33:27,970
- And we are about
to make a major call.
2234
01:33:28,010 --> 01:33:30,800
Donald Trump has won the
state of North Carolina.
2235
01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,100
This is exactly what
he needed to do.
2236
01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:35,360
- Anderson, this
night is turning out
2237
01:33:35,410 --> 01:33:37,630
to be a real nail-biter.
2238
01:33:37,670 --> 01:33:40,330
[anxious music]
2239
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:43,370
And CNN projects Donald Trump
2240
01:33:43,420 --> 01:33:45,680
will carry the state of Florida.
2241
01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:48,510
[crowd groaning]
2242
01:33:49,810 --> 01:33:51,160
- I wouldn't call
anything encouraging
2243
01:33:51,210 --> 01:33:52,290
for Hillary Clinton
at the moment,
2244
01:33:52,340 --> 01:33:54,250
to be honest with
you, my friend.
2245
01:33:54,300 --> 01:33:55,690
- He will win Wisconsin
2246
01:33:55,730 --> 01:33:57,390
with its 10 electoral votes.
2247
01:33:57,430 --> 01:33:59,350
He's cracked the
so-called blue wall
2248
01:33:59,390 --> 01:34:01,780
that Hillary Clinton
that tried to create.
2249
01:34:01,830 --> 01:34:03,440
[somber music]
2250
01:34:03,480 --> 01:34:05,660
- [Reporter] Donald Trump has
won the state of Pennsylvania.
2251
01:34:05,700 --> 01:34:08,790
- [Reporter] That is
the race, frankly.
2252
01:34:08,830 --> 01:34:11,310
There is no path forward
for Hillary Clinton.
2253
01:34:13,750 --> 01:34:16,490
[crowd cheering]
2254
01:34:19,450 --> 01:34:22,060
- Everybody should head home.
2255
01:34:22,110 --> 01:34:23,540
You should get some sleep.
2256
01:34:24,720 --> 01:34:28,330
- Hillary Clinton has
called Donald Trump
2257
01:34:28,370 --> 01:34:29,680
to concede the race.
2258
01:34:33,680 --> 01:34:35,820
- [Reporter] Donald Trump
wins the presidency.
2259
01:34:35,860 --> 01:34:38,300
[grim music]
2260
01:34:55,440 --> 01:34:59,930
- What happened here
is the more competent
2261
01:34:59,970 --> 01:35:04,280
and qualified candidate,
Secretary Clinton,
2262
01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:07,110
got 3 million more votes
2263
01:35:07,150 --> 01:35:09,720
across the country
than Donald Trump got.
2264
01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:11,290
- Look, I don't think-
2265
01:35:11,330 --> 01:35:14,680
You can't argue that much
with the Clinton sales pitch.
2266
01:35:14,730 --> 01:35:16,860
You could argue could
have been better,
2267
01:35:16,900 --> 01:35:19,430
but in the end they
won the popular vote.
2268
01:35:19,470 --> 01:35:21,120
This wasn't a race
that they lost
2269
01:35:21,170 --> 01:35:23,820
because they didn't
have a message
2270
01:35:23,860 --> 01:35:24,950
that could win enough votes.
2271
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:26,560
- And it wasn't
like a nail-biter.
2272
01:35:26,610 --> 01:35:30,960
I mean, he lost by
3 million votes.
2273
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:34,140
That is a larger number
than Nixon beat Humphrey.
2274
01:35:34,180 --> 01:35:36,570
It's a larger number
than Kennedy beat Nixon.
2275
01:35:36,620 --> 01:35:39,970
That is a significant
victory for Hillary.
2276
01:35:40,010 --> 01:35:42,190
- Well, hold on a second.
That's not the race.
2277
01:35:42,230 --> 01:35:44,670
The race is to zig and
zag through the country
2278
01:35:44,710 --> 01:35:46,670
and beat the person in
the electoral college.
2279
01:35:46,710 --> 01:35:48,500
And he did that, and
he beat her in places
2280
01:35:48,540 --> 01:35:50,800
where Republicans
typically don't win.
2281
01:35:50,850 --> 01:35:53,810
- They took Wisconsin,
Michigan, and Pennsylvania
2282
01:35:53,850 --> 01:35:56,550
and places like
that for granted,
2283
01:35:56,590 --> 01:35:58,290
that they were gonna to win them
2284
01:35:58,330 --> 01:36:00,730
without having to
do a whole lot,
2285
01:36:00,770 --> 01:36:02,860
without having to put a
big get out the vote effort
2286
01:36:02,900 --> 01:36:04,380
on the ground.
2287
01:36:04,430 --> 01:36:07,210
- She refused to spend any
money for grassroots turnout
2288
01:36:07,260 --> 01:36:11,560
in Michigan, in Indiana,
in Pennsylvania,
2289
01:36:11,610 --> 01:36:14,700
because her data dummy
pollsters told her
2290
01:36:14,740 --> 01:36:16,920
she had it in the
bag based on polling.
2291
01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:20,400
- There's gonna be an
incredible, long, deep,
2292
01:36:20,440 --> 01:36:23,660
rigorous autopsy
done on the polling
2293
01:36:23,710 --> 01:36:25,620
that pervaded this campaign.
2294
01:36:25,670 --> 01:36:28,230
Public polling and the
Clinton campaign zone data,
2295
01:36:28,280 --> 01:36:30,280
which obviously was
wrong in a lot of ways.
2296
01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:34,590
- The big falsehood was that
her ground game was good.
2297
01:36:34,630 --> 01:36:36,420
It actually wasn't.
2298
01:36:36,460 --> 01:36:38,980
And she never went to Wisconsin,
2299
01:36:39,030 --> 01:36:40,460
which is something we
all should have noticed
2300
01:36:40,510 --> 01:36:41,510
in retrospect.
2301
01:36:41,550 --> 01:36:43,070
- I think a big
swing in Wisconsin
2302
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:45,290
was Hillary never coming here.
2303
01:36:45,340 --> 01:36:46,950
I think she just
assumed that Wisconsin
2304
01:36:46,990 --> 01:36:48,210
was gonna go her way,
2305
01:36:48,250 --> 01:36:49,820
and that didn't work
out too well for her.
2306
01:36:49,860 --> 01:36:53,130
- This is a state that Hillary
Clinton hasn't even visited
2307
01:36:53,170 --> 01:36:57,310
since the Democratic
Convention over the summer.
2308
01:36:57,350 --> 01:36:58,740
- Wisconsin's always tight,
2309
01:36:58,790 --> 01:37:01,140
and what happens in the end
is Democrats always win.
2310
01:37:01,180 --> 01:37:02,880
But that was before
Governor Walker
2311
01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:04,360
had instituted a
series of reforms
2312
01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:05,710
that made the unions
less powerful.
2313
01:37:05,750 --> 01:37:08,840
President Obama would
have gone to Wisconsin.
2314
01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:13,100
By all kinds of reports, he
wanted to go to Wisconsin,
2315
01:37:13,150 --> 01:37:16,370
but the campaign told
him, and his people,
2316
01:37:16,410 --> 01:37:17,940
that there's no
reason to go there.
2317
01:37:17,980 --> 01:37:19,070
- Do you think it would
have made a difference
2318
01:37:19,110 --> 01:37:20,020
if she'd come on your show?
2319
01:37:20,070 --> 01:37:20,890
- Hillary?
2320
01:37:20,940 --> 01:37:21,720
- Yes
2321
01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:23,200
- I do
2322
01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:25,200
It's 70,000 votes, and in
those states I am popular,
2323
01:37:25,250 --> 01:37:28,080
particularly
Pennsylvania, for example
2324
01:37:28,120 --> 01:37:30,340
- If you don't catch the signal
2325
01:37:30,380 --> 01:37:32,690
that you've got a big problem
in the industrial heartland
2326
01:37:32,730 --> 01:37:35,560
when you can't when your
own primary in Michigan,
2327
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:37,560
if you can't respond
to that on the ground
2328
01:37:37,610 --> 01:37:40,830
when people are begging for
help, you're gonna get beat.
2329
01:37:40,870 --> 01:37:44,000
At the end of the day,
it is a ground operation
2330
01:37:44,050 --> 01:37:45,830
that was not funded
in the heartland
2331
01:37:45,880 --> 01:37:47,270
that cost this campaign.
2332
01:37:47,310 --> 01:37:50,270
It was political malpractice
of the highest order.
2333
01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:52,670
Donald Trump saw that
hole in her plan,
2334
01:37:52,710 --> 01:37:54,620
and he went to the heartland,
and he beat her there.
2335
01:37:54,670 --> 01:37:55,490
It's her fault.
2336
01:37:57,710 --> 01:38:01,330
- Our campaign was
never about one person
2337
01:38:01,370 --> 01:38:03,680
or even one election.
2338
01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:05,940
It was about the country we love
2339
01:38:05,980 --> 01:38:08,030
and about building an America
2340
01:38:08,070 --> 01:38:11,470
that's hopeful, inclusive,
and big hearted.
2341
01:38:11,510 --> 01:38:14,380
[crowd applauding]
2342
01:38:15,950 --> 01:38:20,210
- At some point,
we, the voters...
2343
01:38:20,260 --> 01:38:23,170
we have to take
responsibility for this.
2344
01:38:24,650 --> 01:38:27,050
And if, yes, it's
been true for a while,
2345
01:38:27,090 --> 01:38:30,920
not just in 2016, but it's
been true for a while,
2346
01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:32,310
and you put it very well,
2347
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:35,060
that voters are being
treated like an audience.
2348
01:38:35,100 --> 01:38:35,970
And...
2349
01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:41,980
as long as we keep
responding as an audience...
2350
01:38:43,280 --> 01:38:47,810
that's how they're gonna
try to win elections.
2351
01:38:47,850 --> 01:38:50,460
The moment we, the voters,
2352
01:38:50,510 --> 01:38:54,250
insist on a higher
level of debate,
2353
01:38:54,290 --> 01:38:55,860
that's when we'll get one
2354
01:38:55,900 --> 01:38:57,250
- [Reporter] Clearly we
have missed something
2355
01:38:57,300 --> 01:38:58,340
on the polling side.
2356
01:38:58,380 --> 01:39:00,730
How did polling
get this so wrong?
2357
01:39:00,780 --> 01:39:02,650
- [Reporter] A lot of those
people were not willing
2358
01:39:02,690 --> 01:39:05,740
to say to a pollster they
were willing to vote for him.
2359
01:39:05,780 --> 01:39:07,090
- Are they not talking to us?
2360
01:39:07,130 --> 01:39:09,050
Are they not interested
in doing surveys?
2361
01:39:09,090 --> 01:39:13,490
- That term "hidden Trump
voter", "undercover Trump voter"
2362
01:39:13,530 --> 01:39:16,230
was met with international
derision and ridicule.
2363
01:39:16,270 --> 01:39:17,880
Thank you, everyone.
2364
01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:21,010
And they said on election
day, they'll still be hidden.
2365
01:39:21,060 --> 01:39:24,840
Well, that was to explain not
that people were embarrassed
2366
01:39:24,890 --> 01:39:26,370
to say they're voting
for Donald Trump,
2367
01:39:26,410 --> 01:39:28,800
but they weren't supposed to be.
2368
01:39:28,850 --> 01:39:29,980
[crowd cheering]
2369
01:39:30,020 --> 01:39:31,460
They're women who
are supposed to vote
2370
01:39:31,500 --> 01:39:33,460
for the first woman President
of the United States.
2371
01:39:33,510 --> 01:39:35,250
They're hispanics who
were supposed to not like
2372
01:39:35,290 --> 01:39:36,770
his immigration policy.
2373
01:39:36,810 --> 01:39:38,810
They're young who
were supposed to say
2374
01:39:38,860 --> 01:39:40,290
the Democrats are woke.
2375
01:39:40,340 --> 01:39:43,250
If you are a union worker
in any of these states
2376
01:39:43,300 --> 01:39:44,820
we were talking about earlier,
2377
01:39:44,860 --> 01:39:47,300
how in the world can you
vote for Donald Trump?
2378
01:39:47,350 --> 01:39:48,960
And so they just
don't want to argue
2379
01:39:49,000 --> 01:39:50,520
with people in their
circle of life,
2380
01:39:50,570 --> 01:39:53,050
their family, their friends
or their colleagues anymore.
2381
01:39:53,090 --> 01:39:54,440
But they came out for him.
2382
01:39:54,480 --> 01:39:57,920
- I think the idea that
it's only the dumb people
2383
01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:01,840
who would fall for Trump
doesn't stand up to science,
2384
01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:05,840
because there are plenty
of brilliant Republicans
2385
01:40:05,890 --> 01:40:07,060
who are pro-Trump.
2386
01:40:07,100 --> 01:40:08,450
- A lot of rich guys
voted for him, too,
2387
01:40:08,500 --> 01:40:09,670
in case you didn't know.
2388
01:40:09,720 --> 01:40:11,150
They closed the curtain.
2389
01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:13,940
They said, okay,
can't tell anybody.
2390
01:40:13,980 --> 01:40:14,850
Trump.
2391
01:40:14,890 --> 01:40:15,980
And then they open the curtain.
2392
01:40:17,330 --> 01:40:19,590
- He tapped into a
lot of frustration
2393
01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:21,380
and people who, at the
last minute, just said,
2394
01:40:21,420 --> 01:40:24,160
fuck it, let's take that a risk.
2395
01:40:24,210 --> 01:40:27,690
[crowd cheering]
2396
01:40:27,730 --> 01:40:32,830
- There was this divided,
fragmented nation,
2397
01:40:32,870 --> 01:40:34,910
and really an understanding gap
2398
01:40:34,960 --> 01:40:36,830
that we didn't even have a sense
2399
01:40:36,870 --> 01:40:38,140
of what was necessarily going on
2400
01:40:38,180 --> 01:40:40,310
on the other side of the
communication divide.
2401
01:40:40,350 --> 01:40:41,660
And within that "we"
2402
01:40:41,700 --> 01:40:44,010
I would include a lot
of our journalists.
2403
01:40:44,050 --> 01:40:46,670
- Obviously we missed it, right?
2404
01:40:46,710 --> 01:40:47,710
But a lot of people missed it.
2405
01:40:47,750 --> 01:40:48,840
- [Reporter]
Everybody missed it.
2406
01:40:48,880 --> 01:40:50,150
Just about everybody missed it.
2407
01:40:50,190 --> 01:40:52,110
- I don't think that
the mainstream media
2408
01:40:52,150 --> 01:40:54,060
was lying about what
was going to happen.
2409
01:40:54,110 --> 01:40:58,160
I think we missed the
overarching story,
2410
01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:00,290
- And see so many in the
American media today.
2411
01:41:00,330 --> 01:41:02,460
And in the last,
I'd say 72 hours
2412
01:41:02,510 --> 01:41:04,120
having the self-reflection
2413
01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:06,120
and telling themselves they
need to look in the mirror,
2414
01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:09,990
that this was not a shock
to millions of Americans,
2415
01:41:10,040 --> 01:41:12,650
but it was a shock
in the newsrooms at
2416
01:41:12,690 --> 01:41:14,650
at The New York Times, at CNN.
2417
01:41:14,690 --> 01:41:18,440
- I actually believe that
what we watched happen
2418
01:41:18,480 --> 01:41:21,480
in the 2016 election
was an example
2419
01:41:21,530 --> 01:41:25,310
of this very new set of
affordances, if you will,
2420
01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:28,100
of the media system.
2421
01:41:28,140 --> 01:41:30,840
The gatekeepers of
the old media system
2422
01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:32,670
no longer are the gatekeepers.
2423
01:41:32,710 --> 01:41:34,930
Once upon a time, we
had audience members
2424
01:41:34,970 --> 01:41:37,280
who were each sitting in
their own living rooms,
2425
01:41:37,320 --> 01:41:40,630
watching this
television broadcast,
2426
01:41:40,680 --> 01:41:43,160
and maybe shouting
back at the TV.
2427
01:41:43,200 --> 01:41:44,640
That landscape has
completely changed,
2428
01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:46,550
because now we have
audience members
2429
01:41:46,590 --> 01:41:47,860
who are all on the internet,
2430
01:41:47,900 --> 01:41:50,030
all on different
social media platforms,
2431
01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:51,770
connected with one another...
2432
01:41:52,730 --> 01:41:54,300
and talking with each other
2433
01:41:54,340 --> 01:41:56,520
about new political
possibilities.
2434
01:41:56,560 --> 01:41:59,960
When we're now connected
to more of our friends,
2435
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:02,830
and we have the
ability to self-select
2436
01:42:02,870 --> 01:42:07,880
and tune into networks of
people who think like we do.
2437
01:42:10,010 --> 01:42:12,490
- [Reporter] Facebook is
admitting Russia agents
2438
01:42:12,530 --> 01:42:15,190
bought thousands of ads
during the election.
2439
01:42:15,230 --> 01:42:16,540
Now the social media giant says
2440
01:42:16,580 --> 01:42:18,500
it will turn over
those ads to Congress.
2441
01:42:18,540 --> 01:42:20,280
- And now you throw
this into the mix,
2442
01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:22,280
where it really sort of
raises questions, again,
2443
01:42:22,330 --> 01:42:24,200
about the legitimacy
of his election.
2444
01:42:24,240 --> 01:42:27,160
- The clear evidence that
Russia tried to influence
2445
01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:30,120
the outcome of the
election is unprecedented.
2446
01:42:30,160 --> 01:42:32,810
They were clearly trying to
sow the seeds of confusion
2447
01:42:32,860 --> 01:42:34,640
and discord, play to
identity politics.
2448
01:42:34,690 --> 01:42:37,820
But they had a favored
candidate. That's
2449
01:42:37,860 --> 01:42:41,170
- I do not believe in a
giant global conspiracy
2450
01:42:41,210 --> 01:42:42,780
whereby the Trump campaign,
2451
01:42:42,820 --> 01:42:44,650
which literally didn't
even know it was winning
2452
01:42:44,700 --> 01:42:47,480
at like eight
o'clock that night...
2453
01:42:48,740 --> 01:42:51,830
orchestrated this in order
to beat Hillary Clinton.
2454
01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:53,140
- But what I definitely
think happened
2455
01:42:53,180 --> 01:42:54,710
is that the Russians
were interfering
2456
01:42:54,750 --> 01:42:56,320
as much as they could do
2457
01:42:56,360 --> 01:42:59,150
in the mindsets of
American people,
2458
01:42:59,190 --> 01:43:00,760
through Facebook
through WikiLeaks,
2459
01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:02,240
through all sorts of stuff.
2460
01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:05,980
The Russians were everywhere,
trying to create noise
2461
01:43:06,020 --> 01:43:09,240
around probably Donald
Trump over Hillary Clinton.
2462
01:43:09,290 --> 01:43:13,070
Was Donald Trump responsible
for that activity? No.
2463
01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:15,250
Did he mind it? I doubt it.
2464
01:43:15,290 --> 01:43:17,990
You know, all's fair in
love and election war.
2465
01:43:18,030 --> 01:43:20,250
But is the central charge true
2466
01:43:20,300 --> 01:43:22,120
that Donald Trump was only there
2467
01:43:22,170 --> 01:43:23,910
because of Russian interference?
2468
01:43:23,950 --> 01:43:25,390
I just don't buy that at all.
2469
01:43:29,220 --> 01:43:31,130
- [Announcer] Ladies and
gentlemen, the president-elect
2470
01:43:31,180 --> 01:43:33,530
of the United States,
Donald John Trump.
2471
01:43:34,830 --> 01:43:37,840
[audience cheering]
2472
01:43:40,970 --> 01:43:45,800
- I think America always gets
the president it deserves.
2473
01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:48,850
This is an age
distorted by greed,
2474
01:43:48,890 --> 01:43:53,850
distorted by inequality,
distorted by social media.
2475
01:43:53,900 --> 01:43:56,810
Why wouldn't we be
offered the chance
2476
01:43:56,860 --> 01:44:01,860
to elect a president whose
main skill is self-promotion?
2477
01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:04,820
That makes him the
ultimate American.
2478
01:44:06,210 --> 01:44:08,260
- A guy like Trump
was inevitable.
2479
01:44:08,300 --> 01:44:10,780
You're calling it the
accidental presidency.
2480
01:44:10,830 --> 01:44:14,050
It may be an accident that
Trump is the president,
2481
01:44:14,090 --> 01:44:18,010
but it is not an accident
that someone well-known,
2482
01:44:18,050 --> 01:44:21,140
outside of politics
would suddenly rise.
2483
01:44:22,710 --> 01:44:24,670
- We can no longer assume
that what we've known
2484
01:44:24,710 --> 01:44:27,930
for the last 50 years has
any relevance or resonance.
2485
01:44:27,970 --> 01:44:31,320
We can't tell that anymore,
because the public has changed.
2486
01:44:31,370 --> 01:44:32,630
Politics has changed.
2487
01:44:32,670 --> 01:44:33,940
- You can't go back now.
2488
01:44:33,980 --> 01:44:37,160
You can't have boring,
robotic leaders anymore.
2489
01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:39,940
The rise of populism
around the world,
2490
01:44:39,990 --> 01:44:41,990
driven a lot by people
like Donald Trump,
2491
01:44:42,030 --> 01:44:44,380
is because people have
had a reaction, I think,
2492
01:44:44,420 --> 01:44:46,430
to robotic politics.
2493
01:44:46,470 --> 01:44:48,520
And I think, in America,
Trump tapped into
2494
01:44:48,560 --> 01:44:50,560
the same sentiment
about Washington
2495
01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:53,000
and said that
Washington is broken,
2496
01:44:53,040 --> 01:44:55,610
it's paralyzed,
it's not working.
2497
01:44:56,870 --> 01:45:00,310
- He offered, as
the demagogue does,
2498
01:45:00,350 --> 01:45:05,010
easy answers to
complex questions.
2499
01:45:05,050 --> 01:45:09,840
We live in this era where
we're being disrupted...
2500
01:45:10,840 --> 01:45:15,850
by globalization, by technology
revolution, by automation.
2501
01:45:16,370 --> 01:45:18,200
How does Donald Trump win?
2502
01:45:19,420 --> 01:45:20,420
How does he not win?
2503
01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:23,250
- We're still talking
about the 2016 election
2504
01:45:23,290 --> 01:45:24,940
because it's still the case
2505
01:45:24,990 --> 01:45:26,160
that no one has wrapped
their head around it.
2506
01:45:26,210 --> 01:45:27,770
And the president
is no exception.
2507
01:45:27,820 --> 01:45:30,730
He won't shut up about
the 2016 election either.
2508
01:45:30,780 --> 01:45:33,390
We're still trying to figure
out what the heck happened
2509
01:45:33,430 --> 01:45:34,780
and whether it's a fluke.
2510
01:45:34,820 --> 01:45:36,650
To me, that's why we
keep covering politics,
2511
01:45:36,690 --> 01:45:37,830
because we don't know.
2512
01:45:38,700 --> 01:45:39,650
What I'm trying to figure out,
2513
01:45:39,700 --> 01:45:42,180
what I'm trying to cover is...
2514
01:45:42,220 --> 01:45:44,480
has our political
framework changed?
2515
01:45:44,530 --> 01:45:45,440
Has it been destroyed?
2516
01:45:45,490 --> 01:45:48,580
Has Trump realigned the way that
2517
01:45:48,620 --> 01:45:50,530
the American electorate works?
2518
01:45:50,580 --> 01:45:52,580
Or was it just a
really weird fluke
2519
01:45:52,620 --> 01:45:54,800
that took advantage
of the imbalance
2520
01:45:54,840 --> 01:45:57,370
between the popular vote
and the electoral college,
2521
01:45:57,410 --> 01:45:59,460
the Russians, Jim Comey
2522
01:45:59,500 --> 01:46:02,630
a fractured Republican field,
a divided Republican party?
2523
01:46:02,680 --> 01:46:05,810
Was there just this really
specific set of circumstances
2524
01:46:05,850 --> 01:46:08,990
that allowed something
really unusual to happen?
2525
01:46:09,030 --> 01:46:11,420
[soft music]
2526
01:46:12,510 --> 01:46:14,990
- We're going to
face many challenges.
2527
01:46:15,040 --> 01:46:20,130
But this is truly an
exciting time to be alive.
2528

01:46:22,000 --> 01:46:25,260
The script is not yet written.
2530
01:46:25,310 --> 01:46:29,440
We do not know what the
page will read tomorrow.
2531
01:46:29,490 --> 01:46:32,450
But for the first time
in a long, long time,
2532
01:46:32,490 --> 01:46:36,140
what we do know
is that the pages
2533
01:46:36,190 --> 01:46:41,320
will be authored by each and
every one of you, and you.
