It is such a great medical question. Theres nothing wrong with the man. But why see one for 35 years. Youve got to show up with something wrong in there, something youre complaining about it. Weve been calling the doctor and get further statement from him. Let me know if you get an appointment with him, and how they might go. Ill steal your magazine from the waiting room. Thanks, rachel. What does a spoiled fouryearold do when he feels guilty about something, he accuses someone else of doing what he has done, thats what donald trump is doing tonight with Hillary Clinton. What was suppose to be day three of the softening, donald trump thinks he might be hardening, again. Those are his words, not mine. There is no path to legalization unless they leave the country and come back. They seem to be ever changing. I cant tell you what Donald Trumps immigration stance at the moment. He said he could be softening, which is normal, it happens to a lot of men his age. They have to pay taxes. Theres no am nesty, but we work with them. Who knew that it would be donald trump to come and convert the gop base to supporting am nesty. His views will change based on the feedback he gets from the crowd. Number one . Number two . I find it abhorrent. Donald trump has built his campaign on prejudice and parano paranoia. Youre racist, youre racist, youre racist. There has been a steady stream of bigotry. Hillary clinton is a big got, but here is the hard truth, there is no other donald trump, this is it. Shame on you. His real message, make america hate again. Donald trump has a history of racist behavior going back decades, some of it taught to him by his father, fred trump, who managed to get himself arrested. That history was krchronicled a now that donald Trump Realizes he cannot win the election without appealing the to voters who are not racist, he did what a petulant child might do, he accuses an opponent what he knows hes guilty of. You look at whats happening to africanamericans and hispanics in this country, where she talks all the time, she said the vets are being, essentially, just fine, that its over exaggerated whats happening to the vets. How is she shes selling them down the tubes. Shes not doing anything for those communities. She talks a good game. Youre saying she has hatred. Her policies i think her policies are bigoted because she knows theyre not going to work. Theyre her policies, she comes out with the policies and others that believe like she does, also, but she came out with policies over the years. This is over the years. Long time. Shes totally bigoted. Theres no question about it. Hillary clinton is a bigot, thats the new Trump Campaign slogan. No matter how many africanamericans publicly complain, donald trump insists that he knows better than africanamericans what africanamericans are thinking. Some of them are insulted by some of the language you can i dont think they are, they heard me they wouldnt be insulted at all. Anderson cooper, tonight donald trump appeared to reverse his two days of softening on mass deportation when he said, no undocumented people will be allowed to stay in the united states, they will have to return to their country of origin and then asked to come back in. Theres not a pass. Theres no path to legalization, unless people leave the country when they come back in, if they come back in they can start paying taxes. They have to leave . Theres no path to legalization unless they leave the country and come back. Hillary clinton talked about the recent changes in the Trump Campaign, including the new campaign ceo, steven bannon. Trump likes to say he only hires the best people, but hes had to fire so Many Campaign managers its like an episode from the apprentice. The latest shakeup was designed to, let trump be trump so to do that, he hired steven bannon, the head of a rightwing web site called bright bart. Com as the campaign ceo. To give you a flavor of his work, here are a few headlines theyve published and im not making this up. Birth control makes women unattractive and crazy. Would you rather your child had femininism or cancer. B Gabby Giffords the gun control human shield. Just imagine, this is what i need more of in my campaign. Clinton campaign released this web video today, highlighting Donald Trumps support from white supremacist. Donald trump will be best for the job. For president. Im a farmer and White Nationalist and support donald trump. Sending out all the illegals, building a wall, thats very appealing to a lot of ordinary white people. Its treason to your heritage. He responded by pretending that Hillary Clinton is saying that all of Donald Trumps supporters are white supremacist. Hillary clinton just isnt attacking me. Shes attacking all of the decent people, of all backgrounds, doesnt matter, of all backgrounds who support this incredible once in a lifetime movement. When democratic policies failed, theyre left with only this one tired argument, youre racist, youre racist, youre racist, they keep saying it. Youre racist. Its a tired disgusted argument. Joining us now dean robinson, tara film maker and former senior media adviser, and with us nicholas, columnist for the new york times. Nick, your recent column about Donald Trumps history, which includes his fathers history, has brought a lot of us back to some of the things that we had forgotten about in his history. Donald trump tonight, addressed one of the things you brought up, which was the housing discrimination that he was engaged in and describe the practices they used, as you understand it. Sure. I waited through more than a thousand pages of these documents, the nixon administration, not saying for the civil rights activism. What they had done they sent out testers to trump properties, some whites and some blacks, consistently, the blacks were told that there was no room available. White was told, here is this nice apartment. It turned out that people who worked in the buildings were told if a b person actually applied for an apartment, then their application was to be coded, in one case, c for colored theyll be sure not to give it to somebody that was not white. And so you have this consistent policy across trump properties, initial it was 1973, when trump failed to immement his decent decree and then, you know, that was in the 1970s. Then you have this whole layer of similar trump behaviors in 1990s. Lets listen to Donald Trumps trump to Anderson Cooper about this tonight. We were sued many many years ago when i was very young by the government, sued many companies, you know that, it wasnt me, they sued many companies. Your company was sued for not allowing you know what, they found nothing. They found absolutely nothing. I settled. With no awards, no nothing. Didnt people in your company use the i dont even know. What a superintendent in the building, that i cant tell you. But i can just tell you they settled the case and that was the end of it. It was many years ago they found we did nothing wrong we didnt have to do anything. We didnt have to pay 20 million in fines. We didnt have anything. It was a long time ago, i believe so, no. Nick, is that your understanding of the case. Thats a complete misstatement of what happened. You look at those whole clippings, everybody regarded that settlement to be a complete victory for the government. Trump they did consent to doing various activities. They agreed to advertise their properties in black audience publication, for example, so that africanamerican can have a crack at those apartments. They agreed to end. When they did not adhere, the government sued them again. So it was completely recognized by absolutely everybody at the time that there was wrongdoing and he had to take significant measures to try to address it. Gene robinson, theres a long history of people on the wrong side of racism and bigotry accusations, turning that around and aiming it at other people, to an attempt to render the words completely meaningless. If you get up there and say Hillary Clinton is bigot, one of the things youre trying to do is make that word have no meaning any more. It does have meaning. We know which way it cuts in this election. Think about it, in his 20s, donald trump and along with his father was being sued for housing discrimination, in her 20s, Hillary Clinton was in the south working for the Childrens Defense Fund combatting school segregation. The idea of donald trump screaming on the stage, its not just offensive. Passage thats quoted in the column from a 1991 book that talks about donald trump being upset that he discovered that there was a black man working on his accounting. This is the quote that, black guys counting my money, i hate it. The only kind of people i want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmukekes every day. I think the guy is lazy. And its probably not his fault. Because laziness its not anything they can control. Yeah, i just had a chance to read that on the way over, of course, i mean if its true, if its accurate, i defer to nicks reporting on that. If it is accurate, i mean, its absolutely reprehensible. I think trump tried to say he doesnt either recall saying that or didnt say it. If that happened its certainly reprehensible. I think the bigger problem even if for the sake of argument this happened years and years ago. I think you just played with Anderson Cooper to show, you know, any real lack of, you know, ownership over some of these things to instantly kind of go to that knee jerk reaction, it settled it was nothing there. There has to be level of difference in a candidate and someone who is saying they want to reach out and court voters thats arguably. I think it is, at best, you know, obviously troubling and, you know, legitimately, i think these are questions i think that are going to continue to service and come out and that will come out during the debates. I will say this, too, its obvious, you know, were at this point in the race where when both sides are lobbying racist charges, its not unheard of for democrats to bring up the race card as they generally do in elections against republicans. Its always kind of a knee jerk, i think for trumps case, he has provided so much foder, its really hard for him to back away from any of it. I think its legitimate to say, yes its legitimate to raise it. Its legitimate to bring that up. The problem is the messenger because of all the rhetoric that hes already lobbed against minority voters early on. Hillary clinton gave her first speech where she talked about the alternative right which is, you know, to the right of the right wing of the republican party, its a term weve been learning recently. The de facto merger between bright bard and the Trump Campaign represents a landmark achievement for this group. A fringe element that has effectively taken over the republican party. This is part of a broader story, the rightwing nationalism around the world. And one of the objectives that they have is this neutralizing of the language, to accuse everyone being a bigot, therefore no one is a bigot. I think its not a great strategy. When you think of that bigotry, what do you see . You see somebody who has this long record his dad rested at a clan rally in 1997, woody announcing his dad for racism in the 1950s. Not only through the casinos, africanamerican working said that when donald trump visited all of the black employees were ushered off and hidden in the back so he wouldnt see them. You know, in the campaign you have the tweets. I mean this is somebody who has twice retweeted a White Genocide twitter handle with a photo of the founder of the it says White Genocide right on it, you know what it is. Its astonishing, you know, i do think that one study found that one third of the accounts that trump follows that trump retweeted, in turn, follow White Nationalist, White Supremacy cyst how do you find these sites out there. It does deflect degree in which donald trump is not a main stream republican candidate but much more akin to some of the far right political that weve seen in europe, for example. Before we go, donald trump seems confused as to whether hes softening or hardening, im telling you those are his words tonight as hes talking about. How do we tell . We cant. The famous quote from the spokeswoman, trump isnt changing his positions, hes changing the words he uses. In fact, all he has is words. He doesnt have positions. He has words. And he has volume and thats what weve got. I will say made one r point i think what it does it under minds the republican partys effort, its coming from trump and goes to the base of core folks within the party when he doesnt immediately and consistently condemn folks like that. Thank you very much for joining us. Appreciate it. Frank will be joining us later. Coming up Donald Trumps latest position on illegal immigration. Were going to try to figure out whether he is softening or hardening, those are his terms for what he thinks is going on here.

Use dulcolax tablets for gentle overnight relief suppositories for relief in minutes and stool softeners for comfortable relief of hard stools. Dulcolax, designed for dependable relief after softening for two full days, tonight donald trump says, he might be hardening again. He actually said that hes not sure if hes softening or hardening. Now, i know this sounds crazy and i know some of you think i am making this up, and so i give you mr. Donald j. Trump on what was suppose to be day three of the softening, talking about the softening and the hardening. Were going to have borders, very strong borders. After that, were going to see what happens. But were doing to find people and were getting immediately, and i mean first hour of the first document i will sign will say, get the bad ones out of this country, bring them back where they come from. You know ive got to follow up, you used the word softening and i dont think its a softening 11 Million People are being imported. I think its a hardening. Joining us now, chief of mother jones and msnbc political analysts, former analysts and editor in chief of the daily wire. Ben, what is this, softening or hardening . Well, i mean if you cant tell after four hours he ought to call his dr. Its confusing to say the least, my recommendation he should stop talking about immigration until he can figure out what is going on. We now know very clearly why this immigration speech, which is suppose to be today, was cancelled a few days ago. He has no idea where he is on this subject. I know. Its fun to make jokes. I had a fourhour joke, too, ben, you beat me to the punch, there. I always do. The larger i think the larger point to the hardening and softening questioning, lawrence, i dont think donald trump ultimately is interested in very much, other than, donald trump. You know, look at any of his policy positions across the board, they basically arent there, they say im going to do this thing without telling you how hes going to do it. Hes uninterested if you look at the speech gave today calling Hillary Clinton basically a mobster, theres no policy elements of the components to it at all. The only policy element that he really seems to care about and that hes been consistent about is the wall. Everything else is whatever trump thinks at the moment. Now, the softening came from the notion that he wasnt going to do a mass deportation of 11 Million People. Tonight when he was talking to Anderson Cooper, he said that those people have to leave the country in order to then apply to come into the country legally, so that sounds like they all have to leave, but, ben, maybe it means hes not going to force them to leave, which would basically leave us in policy terms, exactly where we are now. I mean, what hes talking about now is what he was proposing, both of them are what he originally would have called amnesty, but, i mean, honest to god, his position changes moment to moment. If you dont like this answer, then you can get another one in a couple of answers. The man has more positions than the karma sue tra. Hes got a solid base of support of people who love him. Hes hoping he shifts, that people will move with him. I highly doubt thats the case. This is not as much of a shift than a jiggle. You dont know where hes going to come down on this position with his speech. You know, throughout the campaign, you know, talking about the wall and tying it to massive deportation, which is what he referred to, again and again, particularly when he was trying to jeb bush and marco rubio, was the heart that got him going and up in the polls. Without it, hes like a roast beef sandwich without the roast beef. He made fun of every candidate. Lets listen to this quick 12 seconds where donald trump talks about just how many people we might be talking about here. Hes got a wildly new variable estimate for how many people might be here illegally. Lets listen to this. You know its a process, you cant take 11 at one time and say, boom, youre gone. Nobody even knows if its 11. It could be 30 and it could be 5. Nobody knows what the number is. Ben, the guy who is claiming that the country is being invaded and over run by these people is now dropping the estimate down to possibly only 5 million of them here. Yeah, i know where hes getting the 30. She looks at mckenzie study where they estimate the number and far higher than the census figures. Again, im not sure that he has any i dont think he has any deep knowledge of any of the issues. I think that hes making policy up as he goes and theres a reason they postponed the speech until next week, until his team can figure out what theyre going to say and saying which one is pop. Thanks very much for joining us tonight. Sure thing. Coming up next, what do glen beck, Hillary Clinton and i agree on. Thats going to be next and well see if frank rich agreed with us on that. All you need is love plays my friends know me so well. They can tell what im thinking, just by looking in my eyes. But what they didnt know was that i had dry, itchy eyes.

Donald j. Trump. Trump is reinforcing harmful stereo types and offering a dog whistle to his most hateful supporters. Its a disturbing preview of what kind of president hed be. This is a dog whistle, he is using dog whistled and speaking to people but theyre hearing things and whether hes meaning it or not, i dont know, but people are hearing him say things and each of them different. He is in massive, massive trouble and more importantly, we are, if he is elected. Joining us now, frank rich writer for new York Magazine and executive producer where hbo veep where he gets to spend his day in hollywood. Hell hath frazozen over. The coke brothers are among the biggest trump critics, theyre now patriots. He is a uniter. Not a divider. But, look, theyre both right. Its theyre dog whistles and everyone knows what theyre about, theyre nativist and racist. I think glenn is a little bit disingenuo disingenuous. Donald trump is the bastard child of tea party and sarah palin, and beck all who enables them. At least, you know, on the correct side now, at least in my view. Hes been a posed to trump from the start, unlike rush l. B including most of fox news. Right. Beck has been independent from the beginning and hes one of the rare ones who is not compromising about that, but hes very rare, i dont know if its going to make any different. Weve all been trying to figure out whether hes softening or hardening. Usually not that hard to tell. Lets listen to one more thing he said tonight about this talking about how people who are here now, without documentation, might or might not ever get to a legalized status, lets listen to this with Anderson Cooper. Theres no path to legalization. Unless people leave the country, when they come back in, if they come back in, then they can start paying taxes. Theres no path to legalization unless they leave the country and come back. If you havent committed the crime and youve been here for 15 years, will you be deported. Were going to see what happens when we strenten our border. Thats the path to some kind of legal status. Its gibberish, really rs lets just see what happens. It seems the one thing he wants retreat from is building that wall. They were clearly trying to get a retreat from that in all of the written speeches, the wall was never mentioned and what was happening is, the impatient audience at a certain point will start chanting about the wall, and he would ad lib the wall stuff. The wall is now back in in writing, thats what theyre clinging to. And now we see from that little bit and in his interview tonight, in general, with cooper, that the the wall has like magical powers its going to somehow solve the immigration issue. People will go, theyll come. Its not a policy. But we all know that, dont we. Doesnt everyone, including his supporters, including the. The thing that might be the most important thing about the complete reversal. Even if for only two days, the complete reversal and mass deportation is, doesnt that say to everyone hes capable of a complete reversal on anything. Exactly, i think thats always been true. But the true believers never got to see that so clearly last week. I hope youre right about that, i still feel call me cynical or jaded. I would never. I would say the true believers, weve seen pieces like in the Washington Post where the true believers in trump rally, we dont really believe hes going to build the wall. Hes standing up for us. We know mexico wont pay for it. Hes just our guy and the details dont matter and i guess my guess is they err saying the same thing tonight in spite of this spectacular flip flop on his number one issue, the issue that made him. How do you think the new Trump CampaignManagement Team is doing so far, in their almost full week of the job . Theyre geniuses. What you see obviously, we see the influence of kelly ann con way because hes giving these speeches. She got two days of softening. She got him saying i want to explain white audiences why we should be nice to black people who live utterly policy. Yeah, and we see what happens. Im curious to see the polling maybe five days from now to check the effects of the softening and see what trumps reaction to that is. They are his words, hes the one who has introduced what some people consider the pornographic segments of the show. Thank you very much.

Roth said i have known, personally, every republican president since richard nixon, they all showed a real understanding, donald trump does not have that understanding. Also, today, george w. Bush told msnb Andrea Mitchell why he has endorsed Hillary Clinton. I know its a controversial decision, but, you know, this comment about the off right its not just a buzz word. Theyre antiimmigrant, populais. Right now is the country and not going back 50 years from a social point of view. That is my number one priority, thats why i made the shift.

In the Trump Campaign war room tonight theyre not sure if theyre softening or hardening. Im hearing you using the word softening. I dont think its a softening ive heard people say its a hardening. Katie, gop strategist, Deputy Campaign manager for romney 2012, also Senior Adviser and National Spokesperson from the 2016 elections, former Deputy Campaign for Martin Omalleys 2016 president ial campaign. Which way is donald trump going. I want to stop using those words that hes chosen, what do you think is happening here. Well, look, every week we hear about donald trump pivot, what he actually does is a 360 turn, its always like the spinning around like a bobble head going up and down up and down up and down. Look, what hes really doing is hes pandering to the white voters, right. Thats what hes doing. Hes not going after the black vote or latino vote. Hes pandering to the independent moderate voters who hes hemorrhaging with. And what the attempt is to wash away months worth of racist bigoted sexist rhetoric and policies that hes put forth. Here is the problem, hes singing to the same choir, his own choir and the congregation is not listening to his nonsense. Katie, from the softening to the hardening, to maybe the softening, whatever it is. What does it tell us about whats going on inside the trump war room with banno, with kellyann. I think clearly theyve found out part of the reason hes slipped so badly his rhetoric has turned off the kind of voters that republicans need in order to win general elections. Its amusing to me after the primary we went through, this candidate that many of the republican primary voters are now articulating the position that marco rubio, jeb bush, john kasich and other reasonable conservatives were articulating and these republicans rejected it, calling it all kind of things it wasnt. Any of those candidates would be winning a general election right now. Lets listen to donald trump tonight, basically, saying trying to sound really tough as hes switching right into the Marco Rubio Jeb bush position on this, talking about how he will never apologize, lets listen to this. I will never apologize for pledging to force and uphold every single law of the united states. I will never apologize for making it my and this is, i will tell you, for making it my dakota means friend, friendly, the people who gave that name to the dakotas have sadly never been treated as friends. The people whose language was used to name the dakotas and minnesota an iowa, oklahoma, ohio, connecticut, massachusetts and other states the native american tribes. The people who are here before us long before us have never been treated as friends, they have been treated as enemies and dealt with more harshly than any other enemy in any of this countrys wars. After all of our major wars, we signed peace treaties and lived by those treaties after world war ii when we made peace with germany, we then did everything we possibly could to rebuild germany. No native american tribe has ever been treated, as well, as we treated germans after world war ii. Donald trump and his supporters now fear the country being invaded by foreigners who want to change our way of life, a fear that native americans have lived with every day for over 500 years. The original sin of this country is that we invaders shot and murdered our way across the land killing every native american we could and making treaties with the rest. This country was founded on genocide before the word was before there was tribunal. When we finally stopped actively killing native americans for the crime of living here before us, we then proceeded to violate every treaty we made with the tribes every single treaty. We piled crime on top of crime on top of crime against offense against us was simply they lived where we wanted to live. We dont feel the guilty of those crimes because we pretend they happened a very long time ago, in an comment history and we actively suppress the memories of those crimes, but there are people alive today whose grandparents were in the business of killing native americans, thats how recent these crimes are. Every once in a while, theres a painful and embarrassing reminder as there was this week in north dakota near the reservation, where hundreds of people have gathered and camped out in opposition to a pipeline being built from north dakota to illinois. The protest is being led by this Country Original environmentalist, native americans. For hundreds of years they were our only environmentalist, the only people who thought that land and rivers should be preserved in their natural state, the only people who thought a mountain or a priairi or river could be a sacred place. Yesterday a federal judge heard arguments from the tribe against the approval of the pipeline and said he would render his position on when the pipeline can proceed next month. That protest will surely continue even if the judge allows construction to proceed and so we face the process next month of the desen dents, of the first people to ever set foot on that land, be arrested by the desen dents of the invaders who seized that land arrested for trespa trespassing, that we still have native americans left to be arrested for trespassing on their own land is testament, not to the mercy of the genocidal invaders who seized and occupied their land, but to the stunning strength and the 500 years of endurance and the undying dignity of the people who were here long before us, the people who have always known what is truly sacred in this
