berniementum and correcting the record on an american visionary. the whole structure of my life was changed forever by going and working on the mac. alex gibony on his amazing new documentary about steve jobs. it s certainly one of the most intense and cherished experiences they will have in their life. all in starts right now. good evening from new york, i m chris hayes. in an interview with msnbc s andrea mitchell, hillary clinton weighed in on the kind of campaign being run by her potential front-runner opponent, republican donald trump. he s great at innuendo and conspiracy theories and really defaming people. that s not what i want to do in my campaign and that s not how i m going to conduct myself and i also believe the president of the united states has to be careful about what he or she says. loose talk, threats, insults, they have consequences, so i m going to conduct myself as i believe is appropriate for someone seeking the highest office in our count
