Donald Trump Bombarded By Supporters at Iowa State Fair; The Stump For Trump Sisters
DR. DREW PINSKY, HLN HOST: Tonight, Donald Trump, no matter what he says or whom he offends, could he really become president? The stump for Trump sisters are here with me. Plus, this teen was killed by a cop. Is his death different from the others? I will speak to the family`s attorney. It all starts right now, though, at the "Top Of The Feed." Donald Trump bombarded by supporters at the Iowa state fair this weekend, where he took children, of course, for a ride on his $7 million helicopter. Then, today, he showed up for jury duty in New York. Take a look at this.</s>DONALD TRUMP, 2016 REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I will be doing jury duty on Monday morning.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SUPPORTER: Donald!</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE PRESS: Donald! Donald Trump! Donald!</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE REPORTER: I think he was the only potential juror this morning, who rolled up to the Supreme Court as here in lower Manhattan in a black stretch limousine.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE SPEAKER: 2016 all the way, Donald. It is going to be a landslide.</s>CAROL COSTELLO, CNN NEWS ANCHOR: Trump holds on to his commanding lead and significantly.</s>ALISYN CAMEROTA, CNN NEWS ANCHOR: A brand new poll from Fox News, showing him well ahead in the national poll.</s>TRUMP: Mr. Trump, you are not a nice person.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SUPPORTER: We do not need one.</s>TRUMP: That is true, but actually I am.</s>SARA MURRAY, CNN POLITICAL REPORTER (voice-over): As for Trump, it was a claustrophobic chaotic spin through the fairgrounds.</s>MURRAY: And, you can see here, everyone is trying to get that hand-on- hand, up close and person moment with Donald Trump.</s>TRUMP: Let us get a picture with everybody real fast.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE REPORTER: He did take a bunch of kids onto his helicopter.</s>TRUMP: Let us give them a helicopter ride. OK?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE SUPPORTER: I got fist pumped by Donald Trump. Next president of the United States!</s>PINSKY: Joining us, Sam Schacher, "Pop Trigger" on Hulu.com; Areva Martin, attorney and legal consultant; Mike Catherwood, my "Love Line" and KABC radio co-host. He is also the host of "Chain Reaction" on GSN. Omarosa, former contestant on Trump`s "The Apprentice," and Ryan Sorba, Chairman of The Young Conservatives of California. Sam -- Sam, he keeps leading in the polls. Are people taking him seriously, finally?</s>SAMANTHA SCHACHER, "POP TRIGGER" ON HULU.COM: Here is the thing, I think that America and Americans, they have this gross -- they love to be entertained. OK? They love reality show characters, and they are somehow combining that. They do want this unfilteredness. And, that is exactly what Donald Trump is giving them. But, I also think that, that is his strategy. I mean he goes on, and he talks about him going to jury duty. We see this here but at the same token, he has been summoned for jury duty five times that he never went before, but now it is convenient for him.</s>PINSKY: Well, apparently -- allegedly, he did not get, Mike, the previous five summons, because he has his name on so many buildings --</s>SCHACHER: OK.</s>PINSKY: -- they sent them to previous buildings, and he did not get them.</s>MICHAEL CATHERWOOD, HOST OF "CHAIN REACTION" ON GSN: Yes. I buy that.</s>PINSKY: That is what they are saying.</s>CATHERWOOD: I am buying it, because I am nobody with nothing. And, I do not get my jury summons, because it goes to some other address, you know?</s>AREVA MARTIN, ATTORNEY AND LEGAL CONSULTANT: Oh come on. Come on.</s>PINSKY: Areva, are you hearing that?</s>MARTIN: Now, he does own half of Manhattan. So, it is possible that he did not get the original summons. But this guy is brilliant at turning everything into a media show about him. And, that is what he did with this jury duty. He shows up in a black stretch limousine, and he does not park where everyone else parks. He parks in front of the courthouse. Meets all the media, and he makes this about Donald Trump.</s>PINSKY: Omarosa -- hold up. What is that Omarosa?</s>PINSKY: You were trying to say something there.</s>OMAROSA MANIGAULT-STALLWORTH, FORMER CONTESTANT ON TRUMP`S "THE APPRENTICE": I was saying was he supposed to show up in a Prius. I mean he is Donald Trump.</s>SCHACHER: But, it was a "No Parking" zones.</s>PINSKY: He has a limo.</s>CATHERWOOD: Not all billionaires ride around in limos with their, you know, in helicopters with their names on it.</s>MANIGAULT-STALLWORTH: I mean --</s>CATHERWOOD: I am not in any way being pejorative to Mr. Trump. That is how he wants to live his life and he made his money his own way. But, you know, there are billionaires who do not necessarily have to have a conspicuous consumptions.</s>PINSKY: And, Ryan, where are we? What does it say about us that we are captured by this guy? I will ask two questions; that and does he have a liability of women? I think I am hearing a little push back from women these days.</s>RYAN SORBA, CHAIRMAN OF THE YOUNG CONSERVATIVES OF CALIFORNIA: I think that he is going to have the same liability with women that he is going to have with Hispanics. I think that if people disagree with him, that he is going to have a liability with those folks. If they agree with him and if they are fed up with the current system in which we got a bunch of republicans in office. They do not actually do anything and just cow tow to the right, then they are going to --</s>PINSKY: Well, let me interrupt you.</s>SORBA: -- love Donald Trump.</s>PINSKY: Is it not the case that the RNC is the reason that he is being sort of pushed aside? If the committees -- the party organization, both democratic and republican are as bureaucratically encumbered as our government?</s>SORBA: I believe that is true. I mean the RNC is the reason that we are having a problem right now with messaging. It is not Donald Trump`s fault. Donald Trump is saying what the GOP should have been saying all along. But the GOP is filled with a bunch of social climbers. They just want to be popular. They just want to be in power.</s>PINSKY: Well, hold on.</s>SORBA: They keep cow towing.</s>PINSKY: OK. Areva, your answer to that.</s>MARTIN: I am just excited to hear and I assume you are republican, right?</s>SORBA: Absolutely.</s>MARTIN: I am glad to hear the republicans critique themselves. We agree. The party is in a mess right now. So, for the democrats, we are excited to hear you critique your own party.</s>PINSKY: Omarosa, let me -- I want to read something for that Donald said back in 2011 in a radio show in Albany. Here is the quote. "I have a great relationship with the blacks. I have always had a great relationship with the blacks."</s>MARTIN: Oh, blacks.</s>PINSKY: Is that -- I mean --</s>MANIGAULT-STALLWORTH: No. That quote has been called to question, Dr. Drew.</s>PINSKY: Well, the question -- but the question is, though, is that illustrative of the kind of bluster that he pushes through without thinking about the impact. And, what he is saying -- and again, with women, is he going to have trouble because of his use of language?</s>MANIGAULT-STALLWORTH: Let me address this quote first. That question -- that quote has been called to question, first of all, "The blacks."</s>PINSKY: OK.</s>MANIGAULT-STALLWORTH: First of all, he has a great relationship in our community. I do not know about anyone else`s experience, but my experience is that Donald Trump can get along with just about anybody, and he relates to everyone. There are people who are rooting for him, because he has tapped into something that most people underestimate, and that is the power of citizen cynicism. And, people have become very cynical.</s>PINSKY: That is interesting. Well, to that point, joining me via Skype is two of Mr. Trump`s biggest supporters, Diamond and Silk. Ladies, what has he tapped into here? What is it about him that is captured your imagination?</s>LYNETTE "DIAMOND" HARDAWAY, DONALD TRUMP`S SUPPORTER: Well, look, he resonates with the average Americans. We are African-Americans, we stand with the silent majority.</s>ROCHELLE "SILK" RICHARDSON, DONALD TRUMP`S SUPPORTER: Yes.</s>DIAMOND: And, he resonates with us. He speak our language. He tell it like it is, and that is what we like about him.</s>PINSKY: But, it seems to me that there -- I could not imagine somebody more divorced if terms of his experience and the kind of life he leads than the rest of us and yet when he speaks, it seems to get through to the average person many times. Is that right?</s>DIAMOND: Because he use the common sense approach, Dr. Drew. He use a common sense approach. We, American people are tired of all of this political -- the political babble gabble. Just give us the common sense approach to solve these problems.</s>SILK: That is right.</s>DIAMOND: We need a solution.</s>SILK: That is right.</s>DIAMOND: That is what we need.</s>SILK: That is what we need.</s>DIAMOND: And, that is why we look at him. That is why.</s>SILK: That is right.</s>PINSKY: And, yet he does not really give us any specifics yet.</s>SCHACHER: That is what I am concerned about.</s>PINSKY: But, he makes us feel like he is going to take care of it.</s>DIAMOND: They will not give him an opportunity to give us specifics. You see what happened on the last debate. Give him a chance to spill it out for you and he will.</s>SILK: That is right.</s>PINSKY: And, yet, Ryan, you would say that he ought to not give any specifics because that will tie him up. And he needs to be just very vague at this stage, I think it is.</s>SORBA: I think he needs to be vague and I think he needs to anchor the debate far to the right. So, that when it comes to the art of making a deal, he has some wiggle room. I mean when you go to sell a car, you put 20-grand on the ad, but you are willing to take 18. That is what Donald Trump, I think, is doing right now. He is anchoring the debate far to the right. And, when he goes to make a compromise he is going to get exactly what he wanted all along.</s>PINSKY: Let us hear from our audience. Yes, sir.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE AUDIENCE MEMBER: Yes. I find myself to be a Trump supporter. I like the way he says stuff. You can hold him accountable for what he says, because he says it loud and clear and precisely.</s>PINSKY: And, usually -- well, Areva.</s>MARTIN: We just do not know what it is he is saying.</s>SCHACHER: Right.</s>MARTIN: These ladies said, he has not had an opportunity. He is on every -- they said he does not --</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE AUDINECE MEMBER: Oh, we do not know --</s>MARTIN: -- Let me just say this. They said he does not have an opportunity to tell us the specifics. He is on every television show every day for hours. He is getting more airtime than any other candidate.</s>PINSKY: I think that -- but Areva, to be fair. I think they were talking about the debates that he did not really get his chance at the debates. But, what are you hearing from him?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE AUDIENCE MEMBER: I like the specifics of what he is talking about.</s>PINSKY: A war? A war?</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE AUDIENCE MEMBER: The immigration -- the border patrol and better jobs for Americans. I like those subjects. He is saying it loud and clear.</s>CATHERWOOD: Here is the -- the reality is, is that, you know, regardless if someone is coming from the left or the right, if you are going to run for president, even at this preliminary stage, you definitely have something to lose, by alienating your base, by -- you know, maybe not being able to then further your political career. Donald Trump is in the very dangerous and very admirable position of having absolutely nothing to lose.</s>PINSKY: You are right, and listen --</s>CATHERWOOD: If he gets buried after this primary, so be it. He has never been more famous. He is never going to make more money.</s>PINSKY: And -- You are right. And, people love the idea that he is not incumbent or somehow bought and sold by any special interests. People like that.</s>MARTIN: People has a problem with that argument, Dr. Drew. He says he is not bought and sold. Everyone else is beholden to billionaires. But, yet, he is a billionaire that is buying the race because he is a billionaire. That argument is so illogical.</s>PINSKY: But -- it is illogical and yet he is saying he is doing it on behalf of the people and speaking the people`s language, not the billionaire`s language.</s>SCHACHER: But, there is one thing that Donald Trump knows how to doand that is how to sell. And, right now he is selling himself.</s>PINSKY: And, also, I think the people -- the elder -- the older population, like the Medicare age, this sounds like a president to them. They remember when people used to talk like this. And, the rest of us want somebody who just says, I am going to take care of things. I think that is all he is saying is I will take care of this. I promise you, and people believe it.</s>CATHERWOOD: People --</s>PINSKY: We are going to continue. We got to take a break. Later, the public outrage -- where is the public outbreak about a Caucasian -- a white teen killed by police? That young man unarmed killed by police. We will talk about it next.
