[cheers and applause] and maybe, maybe it s especially meaningful to me, because i do know something about being first lady of the united states. she has been first lady of arkansas, first lady of the united states, secretary of state. she has [ crowd chanting hillary ] yeah. that s right. hillary doesn t play. hillary doesn t play. that was hillary clinton and michelle obama today in winston-salem, north carolina.
joining forces in the battleground state of north carolina. hillary doesn t play. seriously, is there anyone more inspiring than michelle obama? reporter: the duro casting trump s campaign as a war on women. dignity and respect for women and girls. is also on the ballot in this election. reporter: and condemnic trump s claim of a rigged election. they are trying to get you to stay home. they are trying to convince you that your vote doesn t matter. they are trying to take away your hope. reporter: trump still stumbling in his effort to reach african-americans. he referred to urban areas as ghettos in his speech last night. trump for his part making three stops in new hampshire, maine and iowa. clinton making two stops today in iowa. the president will be campaigning for clinton in florida. appreciate it, jason.
the chance to, once again, control the oval office. reporter: the clinton campaign saying in a statement that she never made decisions because of donations to the clinton foundation. none of the relationships being reported today are new. meanwhile, trump suggesting he might sue nbc over the release of that 2005 access hollywood video of him making lewd remarks about women. i think it was very negative. it was locker room talk. the microphone was not supposed to be on. not that i make that an excuse for myself, but, certainly, it was an illegal act. that was are you going to take any action after the election against nbc? you ll see. you ll see. reporter: a sharp contrast to clinton and the first lady joining forces in the battleground state of north carolina. hillary doesn t play. seriously, is there anyone more inspiring than michelle obama? reporter: the duo casting trump s campaign as a war on women. dignity and respect for women and girls.
that s right. hillary doesn t play. hillary doesn t play. that was hillary clinton and michelle obama today in winston-salem, north carolina. this is the first time they have done a joint campaign appearance. and, as that was kind of, we played that bit there to give you a sense of the vibe there. i think basically taking turns heaping praise on one another, and this event was one of hillary clinton s biggest events of the entire campaign. there were apparently 14,000 people there at this north carolina rally today. and this was a good one to choose to be a big one, because michelle obama was there. one of the most beloved figures in politics right now. one of the most popular figures in politics, certainly among democrats, particularly among african-american democrats, and a absolutely key constituency.
rushed to the scene, the lights went up and we could see how close, we saw some shots earlier in which you could see how close we were to the roadway. that s when it became real. we ve kind of taken it for granted rough impacts on the pence campaign plane but that was obvious when you saw the road and the lights that this wasn t a normal landing here at lagaraguardia. i m so happy you re safe. mike pence tweeting so happy everyone on our plane is safe. grateful for the first responders reporter: they were there quickly. vaughn, thank you very much and thanks for the great work you did taking that footage as well. all right. so donald trump is in ohio. mike pence traveling from iowa back to new york. meanwhile earlier today, michelle obama and hillary clinton on stage together for the very first time at an event in north carolina. here is what that looked like. hillary doesn t play.
