Lets bring in representative dana. Hes a republican from california. Thank you for joining us. Thank you. I want to start with the words we heard coming from secretary clinton there. How great an impact do do you think this is likely to have on the campaign. Its demonstrating theres already been an impact. Shes so cocky early on that she was going to win and all along her whole campaign, the campaign against trump has been based on personal attacks against don trump. That hasnt worked.

In paula hancocks. Paula, the fifth Nuclear Test North Korea appears to have conducted and the most powerful one and coming on the heels of President Obamas visit to asia. Reporter thats right. The timing certainly is interesting, john. The fact is north korea announced on staterun television saying they successfully tested the Nuclear Warhead and they can put that on any one of the Ballistic Missiles. It is impossible for the world to verify that specifically in washington and seoul and tokyo. In the past hour, there has been an intelligence briefing for lawmakers here in seoul. They have said they believe north koreas goal is to mount a Nuclear Warhead on a scud missile. Remember 28,000 u. S. Troops in south korea are here now. This is going much quicker than expected. Intelligence says north korea has advanced quicker than expected. There is large interest around the world in china and japan and russia condemning the nuclear test.

And a president ial nominee stuns morning shows by saying what is aleppo. Welcome to the lead, im jake tapper. Last night felt like a debate donald trump and Hillary Clinton went one after another. The dualing narratives were enlightning. Some Foreign Policy experts would say how detached from the facts on the ground they were. Sarah murray is in cleveland. It is hard to argue that anyone had a particularly good night last night, so Hillary Clinton this first thing going on the offensive. It seems that trump was set on making sure clinton did not get the last word. Youre right, donald trump was in in cleveland at a Charter School he could not help rehash some of the topics that came up last night. He went into a lengthy defense saying that he was an early opposer of going into war in iraq excite the evidence to the contrary and he went after Hillary Clinton One More Time on her emails. Last night was yet another test, and donald trump failed yet again. Hillary clinton and donald trump
Candidate Hillary Clinton spoke before donors and offered this blunt assessment, not of donald trump himself but of his supporters. Listen. To just be grossly generalistic, you can put half of Trump Supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. Right . The racist, sexist, homophobic, islamaphobic, you name it. Unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. In the meantime, donald trump also went off script at a rally in florida. Heres what he said. She could walk into this arena right now and shoot somebody with 20,000 people watching right smack in the middle of the heart and she wouldnt be prosecuted. Cnns Scott Mcclain is joining us from washington. Well start with Hillary Clinton, the reaction youre hearing this morning to the deplorables comment.

You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of trumps supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. Right . The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, islam phobic, you name it. But those other basket of people are people who feel the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures.
