The Clinton Campaign says trumps comments demonstrate why more and more Top Republicans are defecting to their side every day. In fact, they are unveiling a new evident today to put those republicans to work, recruiting others. Secretary clinton, any reaction to Donald Trumps comments about the Second Amendment of you today . Reporter in florida, clinton ignored the uproar but her running mate weighed in from texas.

The Clinton Campaign has always denied any Foundation Donors received any special treatment, because she was secretary of state. But, now, this batch of new emails obtained by Judicial Watch includes a few emails exchanged between huma abedin and doug band who led the Clintons Foundation global initiatives. In one with exchange, abedin requested a favor for someone who seemed to be looking for a job. In another, band asked abedin to connect a liberty knees billionaire who is one of the top donors of the foundation with someone in lebanon. Abedin said she would give him a call. The Clinton Campaign says shes emails did not involve secretary clinton herself or the foundations work and they say band was operating in his capacity as an aide to former president clinton and not as a foundation official. Thanks, nancy. Dan senor was a Senior Adviser to the Romney Campaign in 2012. Good to be with you. First, a controversy with the Second Amendment and donald trump. Do you take him at his word he was simply talking about political power . No. Ive watched it probably 20 times. The best you can say, if you really want to give him the benefit of the doubt, is he was joking about a subject that you shouldnt be joking about. Which is about inciting violence, particularly insetting violence particularly someone under secret Service Protection and particularly for secret service putting out a statement saying they are aware of his comments. Do you believe his words should lead you to say he was inciting violence . Well it had the effect of inciting violence and im not sure his intention but the effect of inciting violence. He has a pattern. I drew up a list last night. You look what ed about megyn kelly and judge curiel and encouraging russians to hack and get Hillary Clintons emails and the wisconsin primary what he said about abortions and about the physically disabled reporter from the new york times, what ed, after each one of these incidents, i didnt mean that. Give me the benefit of the doubt and it was taken out of context and its misinterpreted. If you have a pattern where you constantly say things that are highly divisive and inflammatory and provocative so much so you have to clean it up one would think you would be more cautious with your words. When youre talking about the Second Amendment and something that could elude to violence against a high profile political figure under secret Service Protection, you choose your words carefully. He did not do that which is just another example, for me and other Leaders Within the Republican Party, that he is extremely reckless. Lets talk about the leaders a second. Paul ryan who won big last night, as you know, a very big win in washington he called it a bad joke gone bad. Do you think the leadership is worried in the Republican Party . Because when you talk to the Trump Campaign, they sort of have a mad magazine out, me worry . Do you think the leadership is worried . The leadership of the party is actually worried. The real clear average poll, the sort of average of polls has Hillary Clinton up right now nationally by 7. 5 points. To put that in context, that is twice as high as barack obama was at this point against john mccain in 2008 and mitt romney in 2012. That is nationally. She is even ahead in states that republicans have won in previous president ial elections. She is competitive in georgia and North Carolina and arizona. If she wins those states and wins florida and ohio, she could best Barack Obamas Electorate College tally by some 40 Electorate College votes. This could be a trounce. We still got time, though, dan. You could say that is an outlier and it wont affect the races. Im dubious. If Hillary Clinton gets, you know, 350 to 400 Electorate College votes, it means the senate is highly unlikely to keep Senate Majority hands and i think it poseses a real threat to the house majority. Do the release of the emails threaten her . This is the thing many people say there may be there something in terms of foundation and act of connection at the state department . What is amazing to me there is so much material to mind, visavis Hillary Clinton. These emails, again, are so damaging. Its no wonder that her untrust worthy numbers and unfavorable numbers are so high. In any other election with any other republican running with someone with this story and these numbers, they would be trouncing her. Because the republicans nominated donald trump, she is able to lead even with this kind of baggage. Once again, his headline sort of lead the show instead of what is going on with her. Right. Dan, appreciate it. A woman in florida was shot and killed by a Police Officer in a class about police procedures. The chief called the death of 73yearold Mary Knowlton a horrible accident and it happened in punta gorda, about 70 miles south of tampa. David begnaud is there with the investigation. Reporter good morning. The entire Police Department is surrounding behind me. A blue tent on the back property of the Police Department and that is where we are told the 73yearold lady was shot and killed in what is being described as a horrible accident. Here is how the scenario usually goes. The officer plays the bad guy. The civilian plays the officer. In this case, the 73yearold lady walked up to what was believed to be the bad guy, the officer, and he shot her. He should have been using blank round, but, instead, he had live ammo in his weapon. It happened just before 7 00 p. M. Tuesday night at the punta gorda Public Safety complex. Mary knowlton was about 75 people taking part in the citys eightweek Citizen Police academy. Who participants were randomly selected to put through a shoot, dont shoot scenario and they would make decision on using simulated lethal force in a live role play. During the first scenario, in a horrible accident, participant Mary Knowlton was mistakenly struck with a live round. Reporter the elderly victim was transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead. Her son gave a statement to cbs news saying, quote, this is a devastating time for us. My mom was a saint. Such a tremendous loss of a wonderful human being and the best mom a kid could ever hope for. Our entire Police Department and all of our city leader are absolutely devastated for everyone involved in this unimaginable event. Reporter knowlton was reportedly shot several times, according to a photographer who was covering the event for the charlotte sun. She was active in the Punta Gorda Community and volunteering as a board member for a local library group. Everyone involved is in a state of overwhelming shock and grief. Reporter the officer who fired those live rounds is on paid administrative leave this morning. One of the questions people want to know is why was a real gun being used in a fake situation . Gayle, i have to tell you in speaking with the Police Spokeswoman this morning she revealed a community and a woman was known for the Police Department and the police chief knew her personally. You raise a good question. What was a live gun doing there . Thank you, david.
