In ferguson a year ago. Ahead of the naacp Cornell William brooks, all ahead on face the nation. Captioning sponsored by cbs good morning welcome to face the nation im john dickerson. Donald trump joins us by phone from new york. Mr. Trump id like to ask you about fox news host megyn kelly you said she was a light weight, she bombed. But have you gone too far in your suggestion that she was hormonal in her questions . John, obviously i never said that. I she was very angry when i interrupted her first question which was a very, i felt, unfair question. And i blurted out the name Rosie Odonnell and the place went crazy. We had 5,000 people the there they went totally crazy. It really had a big impact on her questioning. I think it angered her i said, blood was essentially pouring from her eyes, blood was pouring then wanted to get on with the i was going to say nose or ears, and i just said, lets just i said whatever. There was nothing obvious. Only deviant would have thought otherwise. This guy, eric whatever his name is a loser, he but he has had tremendous he brought it up and i didnt want to do this thing in the first place i said lets not do this its not worth it. So, he tried to view it as something other than im telling you anybody that would view it that way has to be a little bit of a deviant. So, essentially thats how this whole thing got started its ridiculous. What i was referring to was nose or ears and i just said, lets just get on with it. I wanted to what difference was it make. What was off base about started off, first of all, brett baier gets up asks me a question about third party which was obviously directed at me we hadnt been on the stage for ten sect. That was it. She starts off with a question that i thought was totally inappropriate. Bringing up all sorts of things. Even the other candidates, a number of the other candidates came up to me said you were really said unfairly. Im fine with it. I think its good. Most poll, every poll said i won the debate which is type im sure youve heard that, too. I think i did win the debate. Some of the candidates told me i won the debate. By far toughest question, not even a contest. Wasnt for me, 24 Million People there, if it wasnt for me you would have had two Million People. Dickerson on that first i hope you agree with. That did you agree dickerson you wouldnt have had 24 million. Suggested that a lot of republicans agree with that idea. Let me ask you specifically about that. When there was that first question about you running as independent you said, we have a lot of leverage. Do you leverage over . I do have leverage. Im a businessman. Im a natural businessman ive made over 10 billion in net worth. I have some of the great assets of the world. And i do like leverage im not talking so much in terms, i am right now leading by a lot, not just a little bit. Im leading by a lot. Im going to get some people who i have Great Respect for. Many of the cases, i have Great Respect for them. I think im going to win. I think i have much Better Energy than they do and much better ability to negotiate with the rest of the world and deal with the rest of the world than they do. I just think that having im leading as a republican i want to keep it that way. Much rather run as a republican, running as a republican is the best way to beat hillary who was a terrible secretary of state. Dickerson let me has a terrible track record. I dont know if shes going to be able to what shes done with the emails is so ridiculous its probably criminal. Dickerson let me ask you, when i hear leverage it sounds like youre saying i got 24 Million People to watch i have leverage over the Republican Party so they better be filings to me. Essentially i want to be treated fairly, i do. Not nice. I want to be treated with respect. Im leading the polls by a lot. Georgia just came in im in the 30s. You probably saw some of the others, if you look at nevada i won very handily with the hispanics. I won the state in terms of the polls. Im winning iowa which is amazing we have a great team in iowa and im winning iowa by a lot. Im winning New Hampshire by a lot. We have a great team up there with gloria and everybody else. And South Carolina just came in we are doing phenomenally in the polls there. Dickerson let me ask you were doing really well. Dickerson you mentioned hispanics up had a conversation about them earlier. Let me ask you about women voters why should they vote for you . Because i very much into the whole thing of helping people and helping women, Womens Health issues are such a big thing to me and so important. I have many women that work for me, i was one of the first persons people in the Construction Industry in new york to put women in charge of projects. Even today, i have many women in high positions. Ive gotten a lot of credit for that. I have so many women working for me and so many women in high positions working for me, ive gotten great credit for it. Dickerson is there specific womens issue youre thinking of . I just said to jeb bush, 53 of his vote this is worst than what romney did when he had 37 with his ridiculous statements. I watched jeb bush last week talking about Womens Health issues like they dont exist. I couldnt believe what he said. Im exactly the opposite. I will be phenomenal to the women. I want to help women. What jeb bush said last week i felt was totally then he came back a day later said, i misspoke. Well, thats awfully bad thing to misspeak about. I thought what he did was terrible. I heard that, i thought it was terrible. Dickerson he has a bigger problem with women voters than you do . I think he has a huge problem. I am going to be very much up on the whole issue of Womens Health. Its very important. To me its vital. When i heard him say that i thought it was terrible. I couldnt believe he even said it. Now, he corrected himself a day later but i dont think thats acceptable. I think this for jeb is what happened to romney with the 47 . Which did have a huge impact on romneys loss. Dickerson donald trump well have to leave it there. Thanks so much for being with us. Thank you very much. Great honor. Dickerson we sat down with republican president ial candidate Carly Fiorina asked her if she thought donald trump should apologize. You know, president ial campaigns are designed to reveal character under pressure and over time. Its why people like you ask tough questions. Its up to candidates to answer those questions. Mr. Trump got asked tough questions by a lot of people on thursday night but he chose to attack megyn kelly. So, on friday night i put out a statement, mr. Trump, there is no excuse. I think thats true. Dickerson what do you think revealed about his care actioner . I think voters will have to decide that . But i think you cannot have a president who is thin skinned. If you think the question is tough, imagine the pressure of actually being in the oval office thats why i think as crazy as this president ial campaign process is, it does in fact give voters a window. In to how people respond under pressure. Dickerson do you think it has to do, what affect on women voters at all . I think women of all kinds are really sort of horrified by this. Just like i think, by the way, women of virtually all kinds are horrified by the planned parenthood videos. There are certain things that cut across political boundaries. And i think those are two examples of things that are cutting across political boundaries. Dickerson mr. Trump in his statement said, all this Political Correctness, there are a lot of people who think there is too much Political Correctness in politics. I do, too, there is way too much Political Correctness in politics. For example, ive been very open in saying Hillary Clinton lied about benghazi. Ive been criticized, thats such a loaded term. Its a common sense factual term. She lied about benghazi i agree theres too much Political Correctness. I agree that people are tired of sanitized sound bites and Bumper Sticker rhetoric. That is different from hurling personal insults at all kinds of people. Dickerson let me ask you about something you said in your closing statement you said that the Republican Party needed to nominate somebody who cannot stumble before he even gets into the ring. Lot of people assumed you were talking about jeb bush, were you . You know, i think its very frustrating to me and other conservatives when we have people on our side who play by the democrats phone book. For example, the democrats have been trying to paint republicans as waging a war on women for a long time. I spent last year, for example, raising money and helping great candidates like coyry gardner push back against that war on women. And so i think when democrats say the planned parent food videos have something to do with Womens Health, when they have nothing to do with Womens Health they had to do with the harvesting of human organs from what a planned parenthood employee called a baby, we shouldnt be talking about Womens Health. Dickerson that was jeb bush you were talking about. You got rave reviews in your debate performance, why do you think you did and do you think youll be on the main stage for the next debate . Going into that debate, less than 40 of republicans had ever heard my name. So, this was an opportunity for me to introduce myself and i think a lot of people honestly discovered wow, theres another woman running for president. Then maybe they discovered gee, maybe she could win this job she sounds like maybe she could do this job. It was really important opportunity for me. Were seeing a lot of momentum and i very much hope that momentum will carry me to the debate stage and the reagan library. Dickerson thanks for being with us. We sat down earlier with democratic president ial candidate and vermont senator bernie san cars. Start with the Republican Debate the big news, did you watch . I did. What did you think . Not much. Basically not just the answers that i heard, its the answers that i did not hear. Climate change is one of the great environmental crises facing this planet. Massive level of income and wealth and, almost everybody else is getting poorer. Citizens United Supreme Court decision that allows billionaires to buy elections and buy candidates, huge issue. Most important issue facing our people there was almost no discussion. I tell you what there was and what concerns me very, very much apparently most of the candidates up there do not remember the consequences of the war in iraq and afghanistan. And the kind of easy feeling, the kind of nonconsequential talk about going to war or rejecting the president s effort to negotiate an agreement with iran, disturb me very much. I think these people do not know what the war in iraq did to our people. Did to the people in iraq. And that how many of our folks came back wounded and dead. Dickerson switch to serious issue which is Iranian Nuclear deal. President obama this week making his pitch for it he said this who have been most opposed to the deal. There may be let me just say this. Clearly our goal and what the president and secretary kerry have been working on to do Everything Possible to see that iran does not get a Nuclear Weapon which would detable lies incredibly that entire region of the world. Something that should not happen. I believe that we have got to go through every possible effort in order to make sure that we achieve that goal of iran not having a Nuclear Weapon without going to war. Dickerson do you support the i do. Im not going to tell that you this is a perfect agreement and every agreement can be better but what the president has had to do is negotiate with the p5 plus one and iran and i think that reaching an agreement, giving it a chance makes a lot more dickerson president said this idea of hardliners chanting death to america in iraq making common cause with the opponents of this deal i believe that way. This is what i saw recently in Republican Debate. Its so easy to be critical of an agreement which is not perfect. United states has to negotiate with other countries, have to negotiate with iran. And the alternative of not reaching an agreement, you know what it is . Do we really want another war . A war with iran. Will take place all over this world threatening american troops. I think we go as far as we possibly can in trying to get peace a chance. Trying to see if this agreement will work and i will support it. Dickerson i want to ask you now turning back to politics. With Hillary Clinton, we have seen in the polls some people question her truth worthiness. You said repeatedly not going to get engaged in gossip not bother with that. Did those people, though, who are making a link between her emails and trustworthiness are they mistaken . Are they giving in to gossip . This is what i think. I think for variety of reasons, Hillary Clinton has been under all kinds of attack for many, many years. In fact yank of many personalities who have been tea tacked for more reasons than hillary. Let me be frankie running against her. I dont know that man would be treated the same way that hillary s. All that i can say is, i have known Hillary Clinton for 25 years. I admire her. I respect her. I like her. She and i have very different points of view on a number of issues. We have differences of opinion on the transpacific partnership. We have differences on keystone pipeline. She rode for the war in iraq i helped lead the opposition against that. She voted for the patriot act. We have to take on wall street. Dickerson you mentioned the billionaire class id like to play a clip from donald trump about money in politics that you may agree with, lets listen. Im not doing whats right for a man that gave me a Million Dollars to run for office and i owe him. When bush gets 100 million plus and when hillary gets 50 Million Dollars plus, everyone of those people that put up money will control bush, i dont mean like a little bit. Bush is controlled by those people. Walker is controlled by those people. Hillary clinton is controlled by those people. Dickerson do you agree with donald trump on that . I think that the Citizens United decision which allows billionaires, as trump mentioned to pour huge amounts of money into campaign to, allow the koch brothers, to spend more money in this election cycle than either democrats or republicans, is a disaster for american democracy. Do i think that the people who make these contributions, huge contributions, do it out of the goodness of their heart or do they want something . Of course they want something. Now the problem is, its hes hes for trump to say, i dont need that money, hes a billionaire. But consequences that the only people who can run for office in america dont have curry favors are billionaires themselves. I am trying another way. We have gotten well over 300,000 people made individual. You no with of what the average contribution is, 1 bucks. Were running a campaign, can we prevail over a nill john mayer or billionaire class, time will tell. Dickerson thanks for much for being with us. Thank you very much. Dickerson well be back in one minute with look how weird things have gotten in politics. Everywhere you look, it strategy is now business strategy. . And a partnership with hp can help you accelerate down a path created by people, technology and ideas. To move your company from what it is now. To what it needs to become. Dickerson in politics you can usually see patterns. The Republican Debates of today between establishment and grass roots echo Ronald Reagans battle with gerald ford in 1976. And robert tafts battles with Dwight Eisenhower in 195. Right now in this summer of trump we are in fresh, unplowed territory. The story in politics yesterday followed this trajectory. Eric ericson a conservative blogger and siring king maker disinvited billionaire front runner donald trim top his gathering of republican candidates because the first time candidate trump who is at the top of the polls, said a cable news host tough questions in thursday nights debate because she was hormonal. Trump denied the claim. And discussion of topics that usually make people uncomfortable at the dinner table. Trumps rivals weighed in press releases, public appearances and in 140 character bursts on twitter. Its at the beginning of this campaign you had bet in your office pool on this scenario coming to pass, should you quit your job and turn your attention to the stock market.
