whether they ve energized the base, i think they certainly feel like they have and i believe that likely will be reflected in the polling, whether he s expanded his appeal is the million dollar question here. he has to do that in order to make up some of the ground he s lost in battleground states over this last few weeks and presumably since friday when that damaging audio from 2005 access hollywood taping reflected in our new survey monkey polling showing that more people now after that audio came out believe donald trump does not respect women. looking at the debate overall, we look at the cnn orc snap poll showing that more people think that hillary clinton won the debate. although she may not have landed as many punches as the first debate and donald trump exceeded expectations. politico reporting, as you know, paul ryan is talking about withdrawing his endorse. . wh what can you tell us about that?
the three aforementioned states. right, that s a great point. and i ll be candid, i don t think so, no. i don t think that will move the needle. why talking about it? why devote so much time to that? well, because, but hold on. there s two tacks here. one, he has to prove that hillary clinton is unfit to president but also lay out his vision for president and on that side is where i believe he can win over, you know, that bucks county middle age mother who, right now, is undecided or leaning towards hillary. how do we win them over? talking about economic growth, talking about security. when we talk the economy and isis, i think on those topics, on those macro issues, that s where we can move the needle with undecideds or people skeptical. he pivoted to isis when asked about that revelation over the weekend. why does he continue to dismiss what he said on that tape as locker room talk? why do that?
donald trump fired up his base with the fiery debate but anything to move the needle with the critical independent voters, the undecided independent voters? last night, chris, ceo of park street strategy has gathered a group of those undecided voters in charlotte, north carolina, 31 of them to gauge their reaction to the debate. there they are right there and soc some looked like they were nodding off, chris. some of the findings. let s start with the headline. did the debate in any, way, shape, form, or fashion move the needle at all with the undecided voters? it did, somewhat. when all was said and done, hillary clinton of the group in terms of people who moved, 10 were more likely to vote for her after that debate. four for trump and the rest up decided not sure. in terms of who won the debate, it was really a blowout. she won 23-1.
hillary clinton someone who wants to continue all the same failed policies that have weakened america s place in the world and stifled our economy and last night, donald trump focused this debate seemingly against all odds. he focused this debate on the choice the american people face four weeks from tomorrow and i m honored to be standing with him and i m going to be fighting every day between now and election day to bring home a great victory for the american people. one of the tasks for you, sir, is to get the american people, not just to not want to vote for hillary clinton but to vote for donald trump. my mom is a lifetime republican and she s a catholic. but before her party, she puts being treated as an equal and with respect and what she believes in, before being a republican, is she believes in me, and when i saw her on saturday, she said, he s gone too far. i can t vote for this man. he doesn t respect you, stephanie, and he never will. what do you say to my mom, a suburban
i think what he was doing, to answer your question specifically, i think what he was doing there is to point out her unfitness. her e-mail scandals, her subterfuge, the clinton foundation. that s not what he said. he said use his power as president to put her in jail. because she is very likely a felon. she s never been convicted of anything, never been charged with anything. correct, but fbi director comey laid out a case against her, to me, as damning as any indictment he could come up with. for whatever reason, i don t know if he s politicized, he did not actually recommend indictment but i think the american people know very well, 60%, by the way, say she should have been indicted. i m not alone and donald trump is not alone in saying there s something extremely fishy here and even criminal. a special prosecutor doesn t mean a witch hunt, but a special prosecutor to someone not politicized to take an independent look at hillary clinton. we have that system set up for a
