Attack against a former Miss Universe . Working that microphone was a hell of a lot more difficult than working crooked Hillary Clinton. Ill say it again. A man who can be provoked by a tweet should not be anywhere near the nuclear codes. Good morning to you. Always good to see you. Im christi paul. Im victor blackwell. You are in the cnn newsroom. Donald trump is in the Battle Ground state of pennsylvania. He is tied with clinton according to the most recent cnn poll. Hoping to sway voters his way. Hillary clinton, you see the map here. She is going to charlotte, North Carolina to meet with community leaders. Meanwhile, donald trump is telling the New York Times this. Shes nasty, but i can be nastier. Threatening to bring up the husbands sex scandals and ducking questions about his infidelities. And an adult playboy video from 2000 which includes an appearance from donald trump. All he is doing is pouring champagne on a car here. No nudity involving trump in the clip. As he ramps up attacks on former Miss Universe Alicia Machado, he is firing back. We have Brianna Keilar with more on what the Clinton Campaign is saying. Reporter maybe not her, but her team tweeting at 3 00 in the night. A retort to donald trump tweeting at 3 00 a. M. And where he was insulting Alicia Machado, the first Miss Universe after he had taken over the first Miss Universe. Hillary clinton tweets. Its 3 00 a. M. It is time to tweet about national service. We should lift each other up. Not tear each other down. You recall the tweet from donald trump the night before last was about not trusting sources or unnamed sources. That seems to answer that dont believe the haters. Hillary clinton, her campaign, christi, they are thrilled about donald trump jumping on this Alicia Machado controversy. Were in day six now. Anytime that donald trump is talking about that, Hillary Clinton is not talking about her vulnerabilities. It gives her an opportunity to talk about something more positive which is what you are seeing in the tweets here. She is trying to contrast a more positive vision in what they feel is Donald Trumps dark vision which could turn voters off in the middle of the political spectrum. You wonder if we would still have the conversation if he did not tweet. I know the vps are getting ready. Correct me if im wrong. Mike pence has been using one day a week to prep for this debate since he was brought to the ticket . Reporter that is not surprising. That is a more traditional debate prep method. That is not surprising. We are expecting a much more traditional debate from mike pence and tim kaine. We are expecting more traditional preparation from mike pence than donald trump who actually told the New York Times he will not prep any differently than he did for the first debate. Much to the ire of many republicans and those close to donald trump. Mike pence is working with scott walker. He is the wisconsin governor. He is the former president ial candidate and one of the few Establishment Republicans who spoke at the rnc. They have been working together. We know mike pence has been going through briefing binders. Tim kaine is holed up in raleigh. He has been working with the team who helped Hillary Clinton prepare for her first debate. I think what we are expecting tuesday night is what you would expect more out of a president ial debate than what we saw last monday night. You wonder if their job is harder because they are talking about their views and they will be trying to defend the other candidate, obviously, on the ticket. Brianna keilar, good to see you. Thank you. Lets pick up on that point with the Vice President ial candidates now with a couple of days from the debate. Prepare for the spotlight on tuesday. Here is something you have heard from the vp candidates. The truth of the matter is, specifically to Hillary Clinton, its important we talk about the record. And im looking forward to that debate on tuesday night. [ applause ] do you believe in Immigration Reform . If you do, hillary and i are with you and the other guys are against you. Lets bring in larry zapado, the author and kennedy half century. Lets bring you in, larry. Lets start with what brianna dropped off at the end of the interview. She said what we will see tuesday night is more like a president ial debate than what we saw on monday night. The first debate is contentious and nasty. Do you expect either candidate to adopt that tone going into tuesday night . Victor, i doubt it. Both mike pence and tim kaine are really tough debaters. They are not going to give any ground to the other side. If you are looking for another trumplike performance, you will not get it from either of those candidates. Theyve been through debates many times. Pence was in congress for a decade. Then he was elected governor of indiana. He was used to debating. Tim kaine, lieutenant governor, governor of virginia and elected u. S. Senator. He had many debates at every stage of those campaigns. You moderated one of the debates for his run as governor in 2005. What did you learn . I learned how sharp he is. He is a tough debater. He can process a lot of information very quickly and he can reformulate it in response to questions that he hadnt even expected. I remember that debate well because i had not watched him debate before. Once it was over, i remember turning to him as we were leaving the studio and saying youre really good at this. Indeed he was. Lets turn to mike pence. Most analysts say Hillary Clinton won the first debate on monday night. Does mike pence go into the debate with that as context in the back of his mind . Does he go in feeling he has to compensate for what the top of the ticket did on monday . He may feel a little of that, but the stakes are a lot lower in a Vice President ial debate. The audience is almost always many millions lower than it was for the president ial contest. The great exception was sarah palin versus joe biden. This is not that kind of contest. I think voters learn a lot by tuning in. I hope they do. I dont think that either candidate given their experience in Public Office and in the world of debates will be unable to take on these challenges. Do you expect that well stick to policy and not of the issues of race or birtherism that we saw come up in the first debate . Well, its 90 minutes, victor. Something tells me there will be high points and there will be low points. Some of those issues will come up. Some people talked about mike pence introducing the personal issues against bill clinton, which would be very foolish, obviously. All tim kaine would have to do is pot, meet kettle and talk about trumps past. I hope it doesnt happen. It may occasionally happen. If people like a good debate that is substantive, i bet thats what they see between the two vp candidates. Whats a win for mike pence . A win for mike pence is do to better than donald trump. I think theres 100 chance of that. And for tim kaine . Tim kaine wants to continue the momentum that Hillary Clinton established in the first president ial debate. She clearly won it. Every survey thats actually random sample thats solid has shown that. I think kaine would like to be judged the winner of the debate. Larry sabato, thank you. Donald trump ready to unleash new attacks threatening to dredge up bill clintons sex scandal at the next debate. More members of his party seem to be getting nervous. And two american sisters found dead in their room at the luxury hotel. And saturday night live its back tonight with Kate Mckinnon as hillary and a new donald trump. Remember when hillary herself stopped by . Im bummed. All anyone wants to talk about is donald trump. Donald trump . Isnt he is the one thats like, uh, youre all losers . Guess what guys, i switched to sprint. Sprint . Im hearing good things about the network. All the networks are great now. Were talking within a 1 difference in reliability of each other.

Donald trump in attack mode today telling the New York Times saying Hillary Clinton is nasty, but i can be nastier. Full quote there. And threatening to get in her head by threatening to bring up her husbands past sex scandals. We have chris frates with more. Reporter a lot to unpack, christi. It has been a bad week for donald trump. He had the lackluster debate. He called the former Miss Universe miss piggy. He has been on the defensive. Yesterday in the interview with the New York Times trump getting back calling Hillary Clinton nasty. He said he could be nastier. He would resupport clinton if she rewins the white house. Now he is saying we will wait and see what happens here. That was interesting as well. Another thing that trump said. He went back on this attack hitting clinton for what he says was her role in her husbands sex scandal. I want to bring up this quote. Christi, he said, quote, Hillary Clinton was married to the single greatest abuser of women in the history of politics. Hillary was an enabler. She attacked the women bill clinton mistreated afterwards. I think this is a serious problem for them. Im considering talking about this more in the future. After a bad debate performance and a week of what were self inflicted injuries, trump on the attack and trying to reverse the poll numbers come out after the debate which have him going in the wrong direction. The thing which is interesting, you know his advisers and some people supporting him are probably trying to rein some things in behind the scenes, but publicly now, theyre being critical of his tactics. Reporter thats right. It is interesting to watch this evolution. Right after the debate, we heard from advisers largely anonymously on background and different newspaper articles saying they did not think trump prepped well enough. Almost trying to goad or shame him into prepping into the second faceoff with Hillary Clinton. Some advisers floating that make Chris Christie should take the reins of the debate prep. He can speak brutally to trump. That was behind the scenes. Now supporters have stepped out and publicly saying what many have been saying behind the curtain. Trump had a bad week. Lets listen to what Newt Gingrich had to say recently. I think what trumps got to understand is he has to say i got to be me or sing a new song. Ive got to be president. Theyre not the same song. He has to become more disciplined. For a while there, i thought he turned a corner. This last week, i think has been, frankly a lost week. A week that hurt him and shaken his supporters. And, you cant tweet at 3 00 in the morning. Reporter so a pretty blunt Newt Gingrich there. Saying he thinks this week hurt trump with regular voters and his own supporters. We will see if he takes that message to heart, christi and get back on message heading into the next week. He has a chance with mike pence who is more conservative and traditional candidate taking the spotlight. See if that helps get the campaign back on track. Chris frates, thank you. The mystery behind the crash that killed one person and injured more than 100 could be solved with the help of this. The trains black box. Theres one problem. Authorities are having trouble accessing it. Plus, libertarian Vice President ial nominee bill weld says he is not sure anyone is more qualified than Hillary Clinton.

Its a tough job as investigators are still looking for clues in the deadly new jersey train crash. Theyre using this to do it. Take a look here. They found one of the two data recorders. That could shed light into what may have caused the train packed with passengers to burst through the barrier at the Hoboken Terminal killing a woman and injuring more than 100. Here is the problem. Investigators are having trouble downloading critical information. Now they are reaching out to the recorders manufacturer for help. Here is cnns brian todd. Reporter investigators are looking at the trains event recorders to explain what caused the fatal crash. There were two recorders on board. One on the front of the train in the cab which has yet to be recovered due to the damage. And another in the locomotive. Which is in the ntsbs hands. We were unable to download the recorder. The ntsb is working with the manufacturer of the recorder to perform the download. Reporter there were outward facing video recorders on both ends of the train and questions to why this train and others like it were not equipped with positive train control. As you know, the ntsb has been recommending ptc for 40 years. We will look at that. We will look at whether there is positive train control installed and all of the aspects related to that before we come to any conclusions. Reporter packed with passengers, the train came into the station too fast and crashed into a bumper and went airborne killing a woman on the platform and injuring more than 100. The trains engineer, 40yearold Thomas Gallagher was released from the hospital. He has not yet spoken to the National Transportation safety board investigators. He has been with the Transit System for 29 years. Could he have been incapacitated . Experts will look into that and if alcohol or drugs could be a factor. It could lead to look into his personal life. It is a shame. He will put his life and family life into a spin. Reporter albert gill is a conductor on the former new jersey line. He work with gallagher. What was he like . He was just one of the guys to get the job done. Go out. There was no friction, like im the engineer. Youre in charge the train and conductor is always in charge of the train. There was no ego issue with him. Reporter gallaghers wife was under Police Escort when she made a stop at their home in new jersey. Tom jones, next door neighbor, says gallagher was working his dream job. Yes, he said he always wanted to do this since he was a child. He loved trains. Always wanted to be an engineer. Reporter jones says gallagher and his wife have two young daughters. What would you say to him right now . I would hug him. Again, say were here for you. Reporter and a bit of irony, Thomas Gallaghers father told wnbc with his career with new jersey transit, his son did work as an accident investigator. Brian todd, cnn, hoboken. A peculiar end to a painful week for the third party ticket. Libertarians. First, gary johnson blanked on naming his favorite world leader and now his running mate is heaping praise on Hillary Clinton. And now saturday night live is pulling out the guns for another season. How they got alec baldwin cast as the new fake donald trump. It makes you wonder. What does ben carson think of that . Oh, that would be hella exciting.

Were glad you are with us. Im christi paul. Im victor blackwell. Gary johnsons running mate bill weld saying that Hillary Clinton is most the qualified to be in the race. He is also talking back about the rumors of him dropping out of the race. He talked to michael smerconish. Thats where the rumor came from. Im about to drop out. Because i made no questions about her background than i do of mr. Trumps. Why would i jump off the platform i love . Im having the time of my life with gary johnson. All right. Plenty to talk about this morning. Lets bring in our guest. We have with us simone sanders, political commentator and Hillary Clinton supporter. Good morning. Good morning, victor. Hey, christi. Hi. Lets start with what we heard from governor weld. And really a difficult week for their ticket. How does the Clinton Campaign try to bring back some of those millennials who have abandoned her campaign . How do they exploit, essentia y essentially, what happened this week . We got Donald Trump Campaign surrogate here with us as well. Simone. They need to take donald trump or in this case, bill welds words and turn them back on him. He is their best advocate right now. Going out there and talking to millennial voters, the Clinton Campaign has a great outreach team. The libertarians think that Hillary Clinton is the best candidate in the race. So along with all of Hillary Clintons qualifications and proposals and some of the folks of the millennial counterparts are saying Hillary Clinton is the woman for the job. Matt, can you bring back some of those never trumpers who are suffering g supporting gary johnson . It shows gary johnson and bill weld are polling from democrats and liberals and Bernie Sanders supporters. They are number one and Gary Johnsons signature issue is legalization of drugs. Something that donald trump agrees with. When you come to the never donald trump conservatives which was a big dynamic for a period of time in the race, the last poll was 9 of 10 romney voters. Only 8 of 10 obama voters are with clinton. The question is can they solidify is on the clinton case. Can she get the same africanamerican and hispanic turnout as barack obama got. That is the question going forward. Matt, there are conservatives who left the trump camp to support gary johnson because of gun rights and taxes as well. I had a person here who was a life long republican and gary johnson is the only moderate minded person in the race. I imagine the Trump Campaign will try to get them. Is there a strategy to get them especially in pennsylvania where the candidate is today . You are right, victor. And pulling back libertarians, trump is strong on the protections and reducing the role of government and not running after the regulations of global warming. He has to court these guys. You dont get to assume they will be in your camp. You have to go after them. On the left, Hillary Clinton just had a tape leaked of her at a fundraiser that she said most of Bernie Sanders supporters live in their parents basements. And lets go to the question on monday night and compare it to something that donald trump told the New York Times just yesterday. Heres the story. I want to make America Great again. Im going to be able to do it. I dont believe hillary will. The answer is if she wins, i will absolutely support her. Okay. Si simone, when he was asked by the New York Times he said this. Were going to have to see what happens. Were going to have to see. What do you make of what donald trump says on friday versus what he said on monday. You know, donald trump has a pattern of for getting things he previously said or saying things on a whim. I have no doubt that what he told the New York Times is something that just popped into his head and spilled out on the pages written by patrick healey. The Clinton Campaign will continue to make the case he is temperame temperamentally unfit to be president. It is not president ial. Donald trump is setting it up so that he can pull back to say things werent fair or something happened. I just dont think these tactics are going to work. I think moderate republicans are turned off by this. I think Trumps Campaign manager and surrogatess wish he would gt it together. Im a surrogate. And on monday, he said he would support her if she wins. He says we have to see what happens in the election. He doesnt want to talk about her being president. He wants to talk about donald trump being president. The fact is this, when Hillary Clinton goes after people and calls them deplorable, people like me who support donald trump, it is a mistake. She is trying to make donald trump unacceptable to voters because 70 of the country believes were on the wrong track and the country is getting worse and not better. Her negatives are ten points higher than trump. She has to get the topic off the economy and off changing washington. She has to bring up the extraneous issues. I would like to talk about the issues.

It is a category four hurricane that is barrelling toward the caribbean right now. Hurricane matthew packing winds of 155 Miles Per Hour. And it has the potential to drop up to 25 inches of rain in certain areas. Right now, the storm is heading toward jamaica, cuba, haiti, bahamas. Is florida next . We go to Allison Chinchar in the weather center. We have a good idea. It is after the next 47 hours that things become questionable. Winds are 155 Miles Per Hour. That is a category four, but it is only two Miles Per Hour off from being a five. I want to emphasize a very strong system right now. Movement is out of the west at 7 Miles Per Hour. It will make a sharp turn to the north in the next 24 hours. That will help us pinpoint where it will go after that shift. Not far off from jamaica and into haiti as a category four hurricane. The ultimate question is where is it going to go now . Are we expecting it to go up toward the bahamas and bermuda or to florida . At least in the shortterm, we know it will slide to haiti and jamaica and cuba. After that, it really begins to vary. The reason for that is we have two high pressures sitting on either side of the storm providing a very narrow path for matthew to go through. The high you see in the atlantic, as it pushes away, that will allow the path to widen just a little bit and perhaps allow matthew to go farther east. It all depends on when matthew shifts to the north. We expect it to happen at some point in the next 24 hours. If it happens earlier, the next 4 to 6 hours, guys, it may take more of an easterly track. If it slows down, that is a concern for folks along the florida coast. We will have to keep a close eye on it. We will do that. Allison chinchar, thanks. Saturday night live. We are hours away from the new season.

Their new donald trump, i should say. The idea coming from another saturday night live alum tina fey. We have Brian Stelter with more. Reporter live from new york, its almost saturday night. Snl prepares to raise the curtain on the season, it is Kate Mckinnon as Hillary Clinton and alec baldwin as donald trump. They pushed the Season Opener until after the first debate. Now the sketch everyone is hoping for could shape the narrative. Will there be trump sniffles . Chugging water . I think comedy could be the key to winning the election. Reporter as election day nears, left leaning late night host seth meyers and sam b are ratcheting up the jokes. Claiming Hillary Clinton used a secret device monday night to boost her performance. We have a picture of it right here [ laughter ] dont snort your way through the debate like the truffle pig. Reporter comedy can turn off some viewers. Im aware that probably happens.

Reporter and Darrell Hammond took on donald trump. Youre a nice guy, but youre a lightweight. I know for a fact you pee sitting down. Reporter both candidates appeared on the show. Something we could see again later this season. But tonight, political junkies are awaiting snls take on the first debate to see if the not ready for primetime players can make their mark. Brian stelter, cnn, new york. We are preparing for comedy and politics to collide again. Some critics say a line should be drawn. Especially with donald trump. Some comedians and hosts are coming under scrutiny for not Holding Donald trump accountable for some call incendiary remarks. We have with us to talk about it the author of im not a terrorist, but play one on tv maz jobrani. Let me get to the question of where to draw the line. After a day of watching the Campaign Coverage and vitriol, some go to fallon and kimmel just to laugh. What do you say to people who dont want politics on the shows . First of all, there are late night shows that are not as political. That is their flavor. That is what fallon came under scrutiny for when he had trump on recently. If you watch stephen colbert. He had been going hard against donald trump. I think a comedians job is to not shy away from some of the serious issues out there. I think it is our job to expose hypocrisy. When donald trump comes out and makes racist remarks or sexist remarks and flat out lies. Im home and that can make me laugh, thats a winner. You do it in a video that is on youtube about extreme vetting. Lets watch a portion of it. Weve come to our last question. Do you believe in eating pork . [ speaking Foreign Language ] excuse me, but does the Trump Administration actually believe in womens rights, sexual equality and religious freedoms . No, no but we do love hot dogs. Welcome to america. Thats a portion of the video on youtube now. Extreme vetting a suggestion from donald trump on people c l coming into the country. Mike pence will have to defend that tuesday night in the debate. We talked about this before the clip. How do you walk the line of comedy and satire and education when you put these segments together . I think again as comedians, we have a point of view. One of my pet peeves is when i post something on social media or facebook or twitter and somebody comments and says stick to comedy. Stay out of politics. The truth is i have an opinion. I am a political human being and have an interest. As long as i can make it funny, i win. You look back at guys like Richard Pryor and lenny bruce or lewis black. It is our job. I was talking to the owner of the laugh factory last night. He said comedians speak the truth. Thats our job. Speak the truth.
