Campaign 2016. He has been pursuing one thing and one thing only, Donald Trumps history of charitable giving. His findings have been shocking. This weekend he published a major summation of what he has found, searching all over the country. He is going to join us. It is an amazing report, but first, what we need to know about the health of president ial candidates and why the news media lost its mind today. On friday, i was diagnosed with pneumonia. Took an entire day to get a diagnosis that apparently she had received days earlier. We could have gotten more information out more quickly, and we regret that. Donald trump has released less information. Trump said hed be the healthiest president in history. Thats not even serious. Hillary clinton has been running a hatefilled and negative campaign. Donald trump trying to turn the tables on Hillary Clinton after her comments about some of her supporters. She called these americans every name in the book. Racist, sexist, xenophopic. There are a whole bunch of phobics i dont understand. Give donald trump a chance. I will fix it. What do you have to lose good days and bad days. Good days arent as good as they used to be. Kind of like a speeded up version of aging. This is the last word on campaign 2016. This is the day. Mark down this day, september 12, 2016. This is the most important day so far in this president ial campaign. There are 56 days left in the campaign, which means this day might be outdone, but as of now, as of tonight, as of 10 00 p. M. , this is the day historians will see as the most important day in the campaign, because it is the day that the political news media lost its mind. On friday night, a republican nominee for president told the world he was willing to start world war iii over a gesture. By the way, with iran, when they circle our beautiful destroyers with their little boats, and they make gestures at our people that they shouldnt be allowed to make, they will be shot out of the water. Okay . Believe me. The next day the headlines were not unhinged candidate vows war over gestures, with a subhead of candidates Mental Health question. Donald trump had earned those headlines, but he didnt get them. He earned nonstop talk about the Shear Madness of going to war over a gesture. He deserved a word for word comparison to the sayings of north koreas dictator kim jong un because there are only two people in the world who talk like that. There are only two people in the world who believe that a countrys dignity can only be maintained with weapons. North korea said its nuclear test last week was necessary, quote, to protect our dignity, end quote. That is a pure trump yan definition of dignity. It had become a deplorable insult to the intelligence of the american voter. Yes, deplorable. But on friday night, when he proudly announced that he was willing to start world war iii over an issue of his perceived dignity, when he proudly took his place beside kim jong un as one of the two most dangerous and dysfunctional minds in the world, he reached a new level of deplorable, and it was over the single most important decision a president can make, when and where and how and why to use the weapons of war of the mightiest army in the world. The political media had the biggest policy story that has ever been handed to them by a president ial candidate, the policy of going to war over a gesture. And the news media quickly ignored it. Because the other candidate for president said something that the polital media decided was much, much more important. It wasnt a policy announcement. It was a description of Donald Trumps supporters, in which she used the word deplorable, to describe many of their hateful ideas. She was careful enough to limit it to half of Donald Trumps supporters, but that wasnt careful enough for the news media, because the news media was clearly in the middle of a nervous break down on its way to a complete collapse which happened the very next day when Hillary Clinton felt a little sick and decided to go home. Youve seen the video a few thousand times of by now of Hillary Clinton being helped into a car as she was clearly feeling faint. Hours later, we got the word from her doctor that shes been diagnosed with pneumonia, and shes going to slow down for a few days. And today the news media lost its mind, lost all perspective on what matters in this president ial campaign. Lost all perspective on how voters should make their choice and Hillary Clintons health became the most important thing this the world. And the older, not so healthylooking candidate in the race, donald trump, who has released only a doctors letter with the lie that donald trump would be the healthiest person ever elected to the presidency, was allowed to use Hillary Clintons more openness about her health against her. The separation between nonfiction and fiction is thin. Its very thin. Its a semipermeable membrane through which each influences the other. And when i was a writer for the fictional white house on nbcs the west wing, i always used nonfiction for the story lines. The president could only do things that a real president could do. So our president wouldnt have his political enemies killed, because thats just not real, not in the United States anyway, not yet. And before long i found that the fiction was teaching me how to think about nonfiction, how to think about the real world. Good fiction can do that. And that happened when the brilliant creator of the series, alan sorkin came up with the idea that the president should have an illness that no one knows about, a very serious illness that at some point down the road could become a problem, a big problem, so the president secretly had m. S. Aaron planted that idea in season one, and ive found myself going back to it a couple times in season six. And thats how i realized just how recent our obsession with the president s health is and just how misplaced it can be. Its not up to us to decide what the voters get to use in evaluating us. A little odd coming from someone who wasnt exactly completely open about his health. That was a big mistake. Was it . What do we know about lincolns health when he was running . Nothing. Washington, jefferson, what about fdrs health. And when he died in office, did people say gee, why didnt he tell us he was sick . No. Did they say i wish i hadnt voted for him . No. Roosevelt was dying in his final lek slelection campaign ad less than 90 days after taking the office. The country mourned. The country didnt rail against Franklin Roosevelts lack of transparency about his health. Fdr was never transparent about his health. He tried to hide that he used a wheelchair for years and largely got away with it since there were no Television Cameras then to follow him around. The more i thought about fdr and the fictional president that i was writing for martin sheen to play, the more i realized that i for one dont really care about a president s health. And when i thought about jack kennedy, who had more Serious Health problems than he ever let the press know about, i realized that health might have nothing to do with how long a presidency lasts. Jfk got 1,000 days, and he was more than healthy enough to do the job of president on november 22nd, 1963 when the president ial limousine turned into dealey plaza in dallas. No one knew that was going to be the last day of the kennedy presidency. And the truth of the matter is none of us know when our last day is coming. Someone dear to me went up for a jog at the age of 52, perfectly healthy guy. Athletic his whole life. He stopped to talk to a neighbor for a minute, and he dropped dead on the spot from a massive heart attack, and he happened to work in politics. Thats the way life works. Thats the way death works. The most common first symptom of Heart Disease in men is instant death. Think about that. Massive coronaries strike with no warning. And theyre gone. The news media has struggled to identify the voting issue in Hillary Clintons health and frightingly, it landed on transparency. Thats the problem here. Hillary clinton hasnt been transparent enough. She hasnt been honest enough with the press. Compared to what . Compared to whom . We have known absolutely nothing about the health of most president ial candidates, and most of our president s. Most of our president s were elected before medicine was anything resembling a science. Doctors had no idea how healthy Abraham Lincoln was or wasnt. And in the 20th century, the press didnt even get curious about the president s health, until after president kennedy. And there has been, there has n never been any law or rule about what candidates must disclose about their health, so its been a haphazard process. Some reveal more than others, and absolutely none of them reveal everything. None of them. Republicans tried to make a huge deal of bill clintons Health Records in his campaign for reelection in 1996. And the unspoken simple reason for that was they were desperately hoping they could force a real full disclosure of his Health Records that would show he had, at some point in his life, some kind of sexually transmitted something. That was the game they were playing in the name of transparency. Do you think you have a right to know that . You might want to know that, because you might think that suggests a certain hypocrisy sometimes, maybe with a family values candidate, but do you have a right to know that . Do you think a president ial candidate has a right to priefs snee a right to privacy about anything . If transparency really is the issue the media wants to focus on here, then there are much better ways to do that with Hillary Clintons paid speeches and emails and Donald Trumps tax returns and everything donald trump has ever done in his life. But then is health itself the issue . Is that the issue here . Is there a voting issue in the health of Hillary Clinton . If this were any other democrat versus Republican Campaign and the only big issue was the democrat wants to raise taxes which the democrat does want to do and the republican wants to reduce taxes, which donald trump does want to do, then i could understand getting distracted. But versus the kim jong un of american politics, there is nothing but nothing a Hillary Clinton supporter could learn tonight about Hillary Clintons health that would make that person change their vote to donald trump. Change their vote to a man full of deplorable idea, just cheered on by many deplorable supporters, including every white supremacist in the country and surely the world. And similarly, im sure there is nothing that a trump supporter could hear about Donald Trumps talk tomorrow that would make them switch their votes to Hillary Clinton. So health is not a voting issue in this campaign, because the candidates are way, way too far apart on policy, on sanity, on intelligence, on basic human decency. They are way too far apart for anyone to consider switching their vote because of the Health Condition of one of these candidates. In order to obsess on Hillary Clintons health, the American News media had to lose its mind today. Had to lose its understanding of what an election is actually about, had to completely lose sight of how voters are choosing to support Hillary Clinton or choosing to support donald trump, and in an embracing their obsession with Hillary Clintons health, the media spent the day ignoring the deplorable statement yesterday ever trump supporter and former federal prosecutor, rude ey giuliani wh now sounds like he wishes he could have been at the defense table atner emburg. Its a war. Until the war is over, anything is legal. That was giuliani defending the war crimes donald trump says he wants to commit as president. Where we sentenced to death 11 nazis. Anything is legal in war. That is the single most horrendous thing said in any american president ial campaign since world war ii, except for the things donald trump says on a daily basis. The presidency was invented back when health was a complete mystery. One of the many mysteries beyond the reach of science. Thats why the Vice President y was invented at the same time so there would always be someone there to take the president s place just in case. Thats why the news media properly assigns a great deal of importance to a president ial candidates choice of Vice President ial running mate, which brings us to the worstcase scenario. The worstcase scenario on the republican side if Donald Trumps health doesnt hold up in the white house or Something Else unforeseen happens, that worstcase scenario is called president mike pence. And the worstcase scenario on the democratic side would be a president tim kaine who would be identical to Hillary Clintons policies. So what is the voting issue here . The Founding Fathers believed that what voters needed to know is who would take over for the president in case the president drank out of the wrong kucup of water one day and died, because thats how easy it was to die back then. Hillary clinton supporters want her to be president as long as she thinks shes healthy enough to be president. And donald Trump Supporters want him to be president as long as he thinks hes healthy enough to be president. Thats why my fictional president jeb bartlett, thats exactly what he thought his voters wanted. And ultimately, it fell to me, in season six to finally write what the drama had been demanding for five years. To hit the president with an attack of m. S. So severe that he could not hide it. It happened on air force one on the way to a summit in china. He knew exactly what he was going to do. Go out there and tell the voters what he thought they needed to know. No more and no less. When we get out there, ill leadoff with the m. S. Thing and go to the south korea story. Ill leave it to you to give any medical details if anybody has any questions about that. I think they might have a few. Hundred. The president from the United States will be working from a wheelchair again. Again . Do i really have to remind those kids that roosevelt fought world war ii from a wheelchair . Voters vote for the president and Vice President who they want to do the job, and they want that president to do the job as long as he or she is able. Voters have never and will never vote for Health Records. But dont expect the political media to understand that any final soon. Coming up next, one of the heroic reporters of campaign 2016. David farn pole will join us and tell us what he has discovered in his monthslong search of Donald Trumps history of charitable giving.

Anyone who knows about donald trump and his career knows that this is a man whos given away tens of millions of dollars to charitable causes throughout the course of his business life. You can talk to charities all across the country who have benefitted by the jen ross its of the trump family. One heroic and dedicated reporter has actually tried to do exactly that. His findings have ripped away the veneer. He has devoted himself for months to tracking down Donald Trumps charitable giving. This is the kind of reporting that most news organizations have given up on. It is the stuff that Pulitzer Prizes are made of. Its what you saw in the Academy Award winning movie spotlight. A reporter grabbing onto a story, grabbing onto it, holding onto that target and not letting go. That reporter, David Fahrenthold joins us now. Youve published a massive collection of your findings this weekend in the whington post. Youve been report being it, you know, piecemeal as you can find things along. What is the summary of where it all stands now . Well, the donald j. Trump foundation, started in the 1980s. I wanted to explain its charity. I cant find any donations from trumps own pocket, si found tht hes created a vehicle to give other peoples money away as his own or make it seem like his own. He hasnt given any money to his own foundation since 2008, but has been giving other peoples money away that seems like gifting. He gave money from his personal funds eight years ago and has not contributed sense, and theres no record in the last eight years of him making a personal contribution to a charity with his own money, absolute zero. There is one record. Looking back between 2008 and this may, i found a gift that appeared to be coming out of trumps own pocket. It was in 2009 for less than 10,000. Thats the one. What was that for, that money . It was a gift to the Police Athletic league of new york city. That may be a bookkeeping air. In other years that same organization has made bookkeeping errors that made Trump Foundation gifts appear to be trump gifts. Youre being as charitable as you can to donald trump at least in this story. And so when mike pence says, when you hear mike pence say today hes given tens of millions of dollars to charitable causes, and thats official trump statement today, your response to that has always been please just show it to me, show me the receipts, any Charity Money out there. And youve been working through twitter, social media, asking people to help. Does anyone have anything to report on a contribution on trump . No, not that ive found. After mike pence came out and said he gives tens of millions of dollars away, i went to the trump people and said okay, mike pence, there must be something behind this. Tell me more. Tell me the names of the charities he gave, the amounts he gave, the years he gave, and the response is basically nothing. They send back a response that sort of muddied the waters between trumps only personal giving and the Trump Foundation and didnt give any more details of what he might have given out of his own pocket. Where does the Trump Foundation get its money if not from donald trump. It has some very large donors. Vince mcmahon gave about 5 million in 2007 and 2009. And trump has been spending down that giant lump of money for a while. But there are other cases in which trump goes to people to raise money so trump can give the same money away to another charity and claim credit for it. Weve looked at a couple of those examples as well. As far as the Trump Campaign or Donald Trumps transparency to use the medias favorite word of the day, his transparency on this, youve gotten zero cooperation from them, youve asked them, the foundation, you asked donald trump, the campaign, constantly to provide information and they dont. They have given us very, very little. In a few cases, again, a couple weeks ago we wrote about this penalty they had to pay to the irs for giving an Illegal Campaign contribution out of the foundation. They did tell us about that, but its been few and far between examples like that. As you know, ive admired your fixation on this from your first day on the job, and we need a dozen more reporters sticking with it and following your model. David fahrenthold, thank you very much for joining us tonight. Really appreciate it. Thank you.

Have a feeling that some of you may have heard by now that Hillary Clinton was at a fundraiser friday night and said this about Donald Trumps supporters. To just be grossly generalistic. You could put half of trumps supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. [ laughter ] right . Theyre racist, sexist, homophobic, islam phobic, you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. Of course america is the country where we have to pretend that all of our voters are just the very best voters in the world. The smartest voters in the world, the kindest voters in the world, the wisist voters in the world, the most generous voters, and so donald trump played on th Ridiculous Media fantasy today. Our vision of hope stands in stark contrast to my opponents campaign of hate. Hillary clinton has been running a hatefilled and negative campaign with no policy, no solutions, and no new ideas. She talks about people like theyre objects, not human beings. She said half of our supporters are irredeemable and not american. What she cant understand or accept is that the great majority of this country now sees right through these lies and deceptions of a failed political establishment. Joining us now, a man whos never grossly generalistic. Nbc political analyst. And we should note that Hillary Clinton issued a statement the next day saying i was being, you know, i said i was being grossly generalistic, and she said she regrets saying half. She regrets the calculation about how many Trump Supporters were, as she described them. But, certainly, its a pretty big number. It might have only been two out of five. There are a lot of different ways to look at this, lawrence. We do know from polling data, that a majority of republicans do believe the president wasnt born here, and that hes some sort of secret muslim, which is a good indication that they may have some racist conspiratorial, islam phobic ideas, which is what she was playing to. We do know that the altright, these white nationalists who held a press conference in d. C. On friday are very much in favor of donald trump. We know that steve bannan, the former ceo of breitbart, whos now the ceo of the Trump Campaign has identified with the altright and said he wanted breitbart to be its magazine. There are elementis on the far right who are bigots, who may be racist and maybe soexist and supporting donald trump, half, well, its hard to figure that out. And we also know when it comes to phony outrage, a subject you often talk about on this show, that donald trump is the champion of phony outrage. It was only a year ago when he said on sean hannity, i put this up on mother jones today, that half of america wants to sit back and do nothing, let the other 50 carry them. So he gained a few points above mitt romneys 47 . So hes discounting tens of millions of americans when he has basically called half of america losers. Lets take a look at the new trump tv ad taking advantage of these Hillary Clinton comments. Speaking to wealthy donors, Hillary Clinton called tens of millions of americans deplorable. You could put half of trumps supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. Islam phobic, you name it. People like you, you, you, and you deplorable. You know whats deplorable . Hillary clinton viciously demonizing hardworking people like you. Im donald trump and i approve this message. So david, is that going to do damage . I dont understand this campaign from the trump perspective. Today they came out with an ad. No, were not racists. Were not sexists. Were not islam phones. And theyve got guys and gals wearing tee shirts saying, im deplorable. Thats not a way to reach out to moderate and independent voters, so i dont think this is going to be effective. David corn, thank you. A new poll showing Hillary Clinton and donald trump statistically tied in georgia, where the republicans should have a massive lead, joining me, james carter of georgia, yes, he is related to that other james carter. New bikes arent selling guys. What are we gonna do . How about we pump more into promotions . Nah. What else . What if we hire more sales reps . Nah. What else . What if we digitize the whole supply chain . So people can customize their bike before they buy it. That worked better than expected. Ill dial it back. Yeah, dial it back. Just a little.

If its severe stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. Stomacharea pain and swelling. Talk to youroctor about managing your symptoms proactively with linzess. First of all, hes released his Financial Disclosure form with the fec. Its more comprehensive than a tax filing. The tax filing shows what you paid and what your deduction was, thats it. And joining me is an adviser and a radio hoist. Gentlemen, theres shawn spicer today, on this network, trying to claim that the campaign Financial Disclosure forms that donald trump has released are more revealing than tax returns. Now every candidate has always released those fec documents, because they must, and here we have donald trump, the only one to not release tax returns. Charlie sikes, there is a big difference here, and on a day when the media cares nothing more than about transparency, the huge transparency story of the year remains Donald Trumps tax returns. The reality is that in one case after another, donald trump turns out not to be what he purports to be. He presents himself as a successful businessman. Hes failed miserably so many times. He reports to be charitable, as youve demonstrated with David Fahrentholds journalism, he is not that charitable. He has shown himself not to be that knowledgeable, a financier that hes claimed to be. But we really dont know who he is or what his business looks like, or what his charitable practices are until we get those tax returns, and nothing will substitute for that. Rick wilson, i think one thing weve discovered those tax returns would reveal through David Fahrentholds reporting is that Donald Trumps charitable contributions as far as we can tell are zero. For his last eight tax returns. He has deducted zero, because he has given zero. Whats fascinating is if those are revealed did he claim some deductions, did he claim taxdeductible contributions. He defends his tax returns with more passion than anything else in this race is really telling. Its one of the things that the American Media class has failed to hold his feet to the fire on. Because they continue to let the show and the spectacle go on. And the response, if i were on the other side of this fence and the journalistic world, id say, were not covering this guy until we get answer on the most fundamental questions on who he is, who he gives money to, because as much as shawn spicer wants to defend that fec statement, we all know that thats magical thinking. Theres no way to verify or val date that statement. And if they dont think trump would perjure himself to make his ego look better, theyve got another think coming. Hes been absolutely masterful at it. A lot of people thought it would come to an end after the conventions, but it obviously has not. On this issue of transparency, look, i think that Hillary Clinton has transparency issues. I think shes allergic to transparency, but donald trump can hardly make that a significant issue, given his complete lack of transparency on something as important as his income taxes. And rick, quickly, before we go, mike pence was on tv today, and he refused to use the word deplorable in relation to david duke. And if klan membership cant get you labeled deplorable in trump pence world, what can . It is obviously that pence is soul in chief. You might as well get ready for the pointed hat if you cant call david duke deplorable in this country. Up next, the head of the cia responds to donald trump publicly describing his classified intelligence briefing and lying about it. If youre searching other travel sites to find a better price.

Did you learn anything in that briefing, again, not going into specifics that makes you reconsider some of things you say you can accomplish quickly, like defeating isis quickly. No. What i did learn is that our leadership, barack obama, did not follow what our experts and our truly, when they call it intelligence, its there for a reason, what our experts said to do. How . And i was very, very surprised. And i could tell, they were not happy. Our leaders did not follow what they were recommending. And here is how cia director john brennan responded to that yesterday. I know the briefers that have been briefing the candidates. They are the quintessential professional intelligence officers, they do their work very well, and they know as professionals, that they are to deliver substance. We dont comment on policy. We dont give policy recommendations, so i am fully confident that they comported themselves with the utmost professionalism and demonstrated the real breadth and depth of intelligence capabilities. And here is the cia translation of that, the director of the cia just said the republican nominee for president is a liar. vo maybe it was here, when you hit 300,000 miles.

But the latest maris poll shows Hillary Clinton and donald trump in a very tight race in both of those states. In arizona, Donald Trumps at 42 , Hillary Clintons at 41. In the fourway poll, trump is at 40, Hillary Clinton at 38. In georgia, donald trump is at 46 and Hillary Clinton is at 43. When they run the threeway poll in georgia, donald trump is at 44, Hillary Clinton, 42 and gary johnson who will be on the ballot there is at 10 . Last week, Hillary Clinton became the first president ial candidate to purchase tv ad time in georgia. This campaign season. And with 56 days left, james carter iv joins us, based in georgia. Thank you for joining us, i appreciate t stait. State of the race in georgia. I never thought we be talking about a viable race in georgia. Why isnt donald trump pulling ahead there . Well, theres, the demographics have been trending in the democrats direction for the last few decades, havent quite caught up yet, but that, combined with the fairly vocal contingent of nevertrump conservatives in the state has come out in hillarys favor. What is the profile of the georgia nevertrump republican . They listen to eric erickson. Basically, who is a political commentator, has a national following, but also is very specifically a georgia guy. He is one of the, head of the nevertrump movement,specially locally. And he has a pretty significant following here. Yeah, and he has been on this from the start. And he talks about it in terms of traditional republican policy, and also kind of basic human decency is something that hes been talking about, which i gather may appeal to some georgia republicans, especially more religiouslyinclined georgia republicans. Never thought that anyone would have to run on basic human decency in the president ial race. But yeah, it has come to that. And we now have a New Washington post poll out showing president obama with a 58 approval rating. Thats highest its been since the first year in office. And that could be something that Hillary Clinton is looking at as she decides which states to invest in. Were you surprised to see Hillary Clinton being the first one buying tv time in georgia . No, i think shes got a good amount of resources, and i think its appropriate for the campaign at this point in time to test the waters and see what kind of reaction they would get. And if this is one of those situations where even if she can force donald trump to spend time and money in georgia, even if hes ultimately going to win it, what that means is, hes being distracked from real battleground states, more traditional Battle Ground states like ohio, pennsylvania, in a more normal electoral map spend his day instead of georgia. Exactly. Mike pence has been here in the past few weeks. Newt gingrich as a campaign surrogate had an event just today, actually. So yeah, theyre spending time here, which normally, they would not have to. James carter, thank you very much for joining us tonight in the war room, and regards to president carter next time you see him. Now mike pence is echoing donald trump on, of all things, president obamas birth certificate. Ssues, like our passive aggressive environment. Were not passive aggressive. Hey, hey, hey, there are no bad suggestions here. No matter how lame they are. Well said, ann. Ive always admired how you just say whats in your head, without thinking. Very brave. Good point ted. Youre living proof that looks arent everything. Thank you. Welcome. So, fedex helped simplify our ecommerce business and this is not a passive aggressive environment. I just wanted to say, you guys are doing a great job. Whats that supposed to mean . Fedex. Helping Small Business simplify ecommerce. Letjust get a sandwich peoplor something. You dont just learn how to drive. Or solve the worlds problems. Be a dad. Or something and we dont just make sandwiches or something we handslice avocado, pull smoked chicken, bake fresh foccia and craft every sandwich clean from top to bottom. Theres nothing or something about it. Panera. Food as it should be. And she should, she should apologize and retract the entire statement without qualification. Should donald trump apologize to president obama for suggesting he wasnt born in the United States . You know he was born in hawaii. Should he publicly, just say to the president , once and for all, sorry, i know you were born in hawaii. You know were just not talking about that issue. Oh, oh, i want Hillary Clinton to say that some day, about anything, anything. You know, were just not talking about that issue. I want her to use mike pences words, word for word, which were Donald Trumps words word for word about the birth certificate issue now. Thats what they say whenever it comes up. Were not talking about that now. When a candidate says that, that is a signal to the media that you must not talk about anything else. You must make them talk about that thing that they insist theyre done with, that theyre just not going to talk about anymore. And just to prove it to the media, were going to need Hillary Clinton to try it some day, just try it some day, and see what that very same news media does. Thats it for the last word tonight.
