[TRAFFIC HONKING]

[♪♪♪]

STERN: I'm from Chicago.

[AUDIENCE CHEERING]

Let's go! Come on!

My heart is in Chicago.

Every time I come here, I am home.

I grew up in a political family.

We were Kennedy Democrats in a one-party town.

Politics was all around us.

It wasn't something that was external.

My brothers were of age to go to Vietnam.

My dad marched in Martin Luther King's funeral.

Where I came from, the fact that Mayor Daley

stole the election for Jack Kennedy,

that was a source of pride.

[♪♪♪]

Bobby Kennedy was my first real hero.

I was a little kid, but he connected to people

across lines of race and economics,

and his feeling of empathy was so deep.

It was infectious.

KENNEDY: I run for president of the United States

because I believe in the ideals

of this generation of Americans,

and I think we can do far better

than we've done in the past.

STERN: He was for everybody, but in some way,

he was for me personally. He was Jack's younger brother.

I looked up to my older brother Todd so much,

Bobby Kennedy was like my secret.

And it took a long time

before I felt a similar connection.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING, CHEERING]

OBAMA: Hello, Chicago.

It's good to be home.

My fellow Americans...

understand democracy does not require uniformity.

Our founders argued, they quarreled...

eventually they compromised.

They expected us to do the same.

If our democracy is to work the way it should

in this increasingly diverse nation,

then each one of us

need to try to heed the advice of

a great character in American fiction, Atticus Finch,

who said, "You never really understand a person"

until you consider things from his point of view.

"Until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."

The work of democracy has always been hard.

It's always been contentious.

Sometimes it's been bloody.

For every two steps forward,

it often feels we take one step back.

[ECHOES] Step back.

[♪♪♪]

MAHER: Which Republican candidate

has the best chance of winning the general election?

Of the declared ones? Right now, Donald Trump.

[AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING]

There is zero chance... We'll never...

Trump is not gonna be president. Take it to the bank.

There's not gonna be a President Donald Trump.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

COLBERT: Meanwhile, in Donald Trump news,

or as it's called now, "news"...

Trump is here right now. You've called women fat pigs.

Only Rosie O'Donnell. I don't know about David Duke.

Lying Ted. Spews his crap about the size of my hands,

which are big.

L-Y-E-N. I could stand on Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody,

and I wouldn't lose any voters.

REPORTER 1: Was a sweeping victory for Trump.

It is stunning. REPORTER 2: Alabama,

Tennessee, Arkansas and Vermont.

REPORTER 3: A political outsider winning...

We gave it everything we've got.

REPORTER 4: Trump clinched it.

The necessary delegates to win the nomination.

On the first ballot at July's

Republican National Convention. He did it.

REPORTER 5: Just think about all the doubters.

The thousands and thousands of articles

that heaped contempt on Trump

for even thinking about running.

[VOICES OVERLAP INDISTINCTLY]

The idea that you can actually be president

of the United States with no government experience,

no experience in the military,

for the first time in history.

[♪♪♪]

He's a 70-year-old man who's never done anything.

They compare him to Ronald Reagan.

Ronald Reagan had been governor of the largest state

in the country for eight years.

There's no comparison.

He can't win. America's not gullible enough

to elect a man who ripped people off

at a fraudulent university,

sold fake kosher vodka, sold steaks,

sued 3500 times by not paying people.

This is incredible,

but in the late '50s, there's a TV show called Trackdown.

In this show, this guy comes to town looking like the guy

from "The Wizard of Oz,"

but the wizard before he got to Oz,

when he was still in Kansas.

He comes to this small town, and he says:

I bring you a message.

A message I alone was able to read

in the fires of the universe.

But be not afraid, my friends.

I also bring you the means with which to save yourselves.

Save us from what?

From the end of the world, friend.

Which I don't expect you to believe.

What are you selling, snake oil?

Without my help and knowledge, every one of you will be dead.

[ALL CHATTER INDISTINCTLY]

According to my calculations, tonight, November 14th,

a cosmic explosion will end all.

But the kicker is...

Your name is Trump?

Dr. Trump.

All right, Sheriff, how long you gonna put up with this?

What do you mean?

How long you gonna let this con man walk around town?

Be careful, son, I can sue you.

STERN: But 11 million people have already voted for him.

I wanna talk to people and find out why.

I'm a political junkie.

I always know what's going on. Except now.

Now I feel like I've lost my way.

I don't understand who is supporting this guy.

I don't think people in blue states understand

the people in red states at all.

I'll try to get out from behind the camera where I usually am,

hear Trump supporters, and see what they see in this guy.

Tell my kids why this is happening.

Tell myself why it's happening.

The thing to do is actually to listen.

Not to argue with them and fight with them,

just take it in.

This is it. This is definitely it.

GPS: When possible, make a U-turn.

The lost liberals.

Florida is a swing state,

and of course, there's the whole

stolen-election-hanging-chad thing.

But most importantly, this is where

Trump's second home, Mar-a-Lago is.

Not as gold-plated as I thought it was gonna be.

GUARD: Do you need somebody?

It's a private club, you can't do that.

STERN: Okay, sorry.

They were not happy.

[♪♪♪]

So that's Mar-a-Lago over there,

which is where Trump's mansion is.

This is the guy who's the man of the people?

Who understands blue-collar America?

Pretty area, though.

Coming down here reminds me of the 2000 Bush-Gore election.

That's the one where Gore lost, then won, then lost.

Seems like the right place to start.

First one up is gonna be Armand Grossman.

Just in time for happy hour. I never let a man drink alone.

Come on in.

STERN: Armand is a prominent member of the Republican Party.

GROSSMAN: I grew up in a Democrat, blue-collar household.

I'm still active in politics. I was, interestingly enough,

chairman of the Democratic Party in Dade County at one time.

I didn't leave the Democratic Party,

the Democratic Party left me.

And I'd have to say my values that I espoused then

are still the same today,

but totally antithetical to those

espoused by the Democratic Party.

I have good friends, "Armand, how can you

support Donald Trump for presidency?"

Really?

How can you support Hillary Clinton for presidency?

My goodness.

I have a son in the military.

And I gotta tell you...

[CLICKS TONGUE]

If he... If something happened to him...

I would... As an elected official...

I would never send my military in to do something

I was not willing to do personally.

I wouldn't.

I'm sorry.

America was the greatest country ever

in the history of the world.

People can come here and realize a quality of life

they've never had before.

Those who do, who immigrate to this country,

who have such a strong affinity

and engagement with the United States, why?

It came out of adversity.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

MARTINEZ: Ten years ago in Dade County, Miami-Dade County was all Cuban.

Eighty-five percent. Now we're about 65 percent.

You got a lot of Venezuelan, we have Nicaraguans,

Columbians, people from Chile, all Central and South America.

STERN: Julio is Cuban. He's a 70-year-old guy

who came here fleeing Castro.

My father was a bus driver, and he told my mom:

"Look, I don't like Batista," who was in power then.

"And I don't think this guy up in the hills

is gonna be any better."

STERN: How old were you when you came?

I was 11 years old.

August 25th, 1954.

And it took us one year for all the paperwork, and blood tests,

medical records and all that. Not like it is today.

Today, they get on a boat, and come here,

and the next day they're here.

HERNANDEZ: It's not what you can do,

it's what you can do for your country.

STERN: You sound like a Democrat.

[STERN LAUGHS]

HERNANDEZ: I sound like a Democrat,

but they got an idea that everything is for free.

STERN: Yeah. In Cuba, they told us

that we're gonna get free education,

free medical, free everything.

Castro said that we're gonna be equal,

and it was true, we were all poor.

MARTINEZ: I wanna earn what I get.

I started washing dishes in my uncle's restaurant.

At 11, I never stopped working until last year.

STERN: Julio ended up mayor of Hialeah.

A boxer, a boxing promoter.

We used to box every Monday at an Afro-American bar.

And it was a white guy against a black guy.

For... This was 12 bucks they paid us.

I did that for a while.

Until I lost a tooth there.

I like sports and I like politics.

That's been my life.

STERN: Me too.

TRUMP [ON TV]: We're going to put America first,

and we're going to make America great again.

This election will decide

whether we're ruled by the people

or by the politicians.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

[♪♪♪]

MARTINEZ: People would tell me, "Julio, why in the world"

are you supporting this crazy guy?"

This country should allow immigrants,

as long as they come here

legally, like I had to come.

You know, I've lived here 62 years in this country.

I've never heard anybody talk

about illegal immigration like he has.

Why do you have a lock on your house?

You don't let people in you don't know.

That's as simple as... I can't go simpler than that.

That's what I want in the United States.

I wanna know who's here. This is my home.

[DOOR CLOSES]

You know, I joined the Trump committee.

All volunteers, we don't get a nickel.

And as a matter of fact, it cost me.

Everybody comes to me for:

"Did Trump give you this?" "He doesn't give me anything.

But I'll give you mine."

My stash.[LAUGHS]

You have all this stuff. Amazing.

That's my cap. Look at that.

I'm a traveling Trump...

You're a traveling Trump salesman.

I'm gonna take these, they'll bombard me.

STERN: There was this idea that Hillary had

this incredibly sophisticated ground game

and this huge database, knew what doors to knock on,

and he'd gone through the Republican primary system,

with his force of personality, big rallies.

Everyone says, "It's impossible"

to win an election without a ground game."

MARTINEZ: They think we don't have a ground game,

but we don't tell what we're doing.

I'm waiting for the ground game to swell, and it...

It's getting there. You can feel it.

MAN: We can do this. We are not the RNC.

We're not working for them, we're working for Donald Trump.

There's a lot of Trump supporters there.

They're just afraid to say:

"I believe in Trump."

I was on a radio show, and he says:

"I'm voting for Trump, I'm a Republican." I said:

"Open the lines and see how Trump's doing so you can know."

We had 15 calls, 14 for Trump.

ANNOUNCER [ON RADIO]: In South Florida, only the sun is hotter than Joyce Kaufman.

It's The Joyce Kaufman Show on News Talk 850 WFTL.

I'm so sick of these crying men. Tony Blair's on television.

"Oh, there's so much anger."

I wanna hear from you. What do you think?

Here we are, sitting in South Florida.

Does Brexit mean much to you?

To me, Brexit couldn't be better

for Donald Trump.

STERN: Joyce Kaufman is a conservative radio

talk show host for local Florida radio.

Savvy, really passionate.

I told him to run four years ago,

and he told me it wasn't his time.

I've basically been cheering him on since 2012.

STERN: What makes him your candidate?

I'm tired of politicians.

I'm tired of watching them be bought and sold.

I don't know what kind of president

Donald Trump will make.

But I do know what kind Hillary will make.

This global, one-world-government nonsense,

that the liberals in this country are promoting

isn't resonating with the people.

STERN: All day long, Joyce is getting calls from people

who are worried about immigration,

worried about jobs, worried about America

not being patriotic the way it was.

KAUFMAN: I grew up in New York. We had different kinds of people.

We were trying to be Americanized.

You know, we might've made rice and beans,

or we might've had matzo ball soup.

In the end, we all ate a hot dog on the Fourth of July.

Now you don't have to wanna be an American.

We have to adjust to you. Change our culture.

Accept things that are unacceptable.

Those are not the things that make America great.

Those are the things that will destroy America.

STERN: When he says, "Make America great again."

What's the "again"?

The "again" is very simple. I can answer that question.

I can answer from a perspective of a guy who grew up

in America, born during World War II.

Most sociologists agree that in 1957,

that was the height of happiness in this country.

People had an automatic washing machine.

Maybe even a dryer.

A TV that was now color.

And maybe even a second TV in their recreation room.

HUNT: Well, in sociology, we have something

we call the "sociological imagination."

C. Wright Mills, famous American sociologist.

The idea is to be a sociologist and get it right,

you have to be able to step out of your narrow existence,

your own narrow experience, and sort of occupy

this broader perspective that allows you

to see bigger patterns in society.

STERN: I said I wasn't going to argue.

But I decided to find experts like Dr. Hunt,

who can give some context to what I'm hearing.

HUNT: Following World War II,

there was this huge economic boom in America.

The middle class really grew during that period.

And America was clearly the world's dominant power.

It was like America was sort of

flexing its muscles on the main stage.

One of the things that is

on the lips of America today is racism.

And everything's racist.

Everything is racist. I did not grow up with that.

I did not hear that.

One of the luxuries of being white in America

is not to have to think about race.

And not to have to think about yourself as raced.

Brown v. Board of Education was 1954,

and that affected education.

But we still had whites-only restrooms

and water fountains and everything like that in 1957.

Trump's slogan is an attempt to reach out

to disaffected white voters,

who felt that they've somehow been losing out,

because of encroaching minorities or immigrants.

Scapegoating is essentially what it was.

So that statement, "Let's make America great again,"

creates an image. It creates a story

of this mythic American past that was great for everyone.

But it was really great for the group he's appealing to.

I grew up in a different country.

At a time when America was a nation

of respect around the world.

No matter where you went, if you were an American,

you were respected.

I grew up believing that our government

was honest with us.

And that we were a nation of truth.

And we were the liberators for those oppressed.

I believed that.

STERN: Do you guys support his ban on Muslims?

I'm not so certain that this is a complete religion.

This is an ideology,

this is a politically based organization.

How in the world are we going to allow

our enemy to come into my home

and try to kill me?

These people want to kill us,

and they're allowing them into our country.

They hate anybody but Muslims.

I want my Congress to declare war

against these terrorists that have invaded my homeland,

that threaten my family.

STERN: These people are so passionate, and so committed,

and so sure of themselves.

This candidate is the best candidate I have seen

in 14 elections.

This will be the first time I walk into the voting booth

in a very long time and pull the lever

for a candidate that I want to be president.

To make her commander in chief...

I can't imagine.

It's hard to believe something worse, frankly.

He will win the race.

I look at Trump, and I see myself in that mirror.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: As I was listening to all this, I thought...

I thought for the first time, "He's gonna win."

That's what I thought.

[AUDIENCE CHEERING]

It's going to be America first.

Not these other countries that don't give a damn about us.

It's going to be America first.

America, America, America first.

[AUDIENCE CHEERING AND APPLAUDING]

STERN: America first.

What really struck me

is this desire to go back in time.

You can't go back in time before globalization.

America has 5 percent of the world's population.

We have to fit into the rest of the world.

What's it gonna be like at the Republican Convention?

That is gonna be the mantra:

"Build the wall. Protect, protect, protect.

America first."

[♪♪♪]

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

STERN: Now, I have been at conventions.

I was at the convention in Denver.

I was at the convention for Bill Clinton in New York.

Passion happens at conventions.

I'm not surprised by it, but at the same time,

you're basically in a cult you are not a member of.

I remember feeling that way at a Billy Joel concert once,

when everybody was singing along but me.

RYAN [ON PA]: The chair announces...

that Donald Trump

has been selected as the Republican Party nominee

for president of the United States.

[PEOPLE CHEERING]

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

This is happening here.

WOMAN: I'm waiting for you.

Wanna sit here? Can I sit? I would love to sit.

This is Marion.

She's a Tea Party member who did not think Trump was

conservative enough for her views.

FRANK: I went to New York City public schools.

I lived in Queens.

In seventh grade, in art class,

the teacher said, "Let's take a break."

She handed out a quiz and said:

"There's no right or wrong answer."

The way you answer will determine

"whether you're a Democrat or Republican."

Out of 30 kids in class,

I was the only kid who answered

every single question Republican.

I knew then that I was different.

Who is the candidate who has

the most chance to being elected,

who can move us in a conservative direction?

There is no choice on this. It is crystal clear.

In the morning, I listen to Breitbart News.

I like Stephen K. Bannon.

And then I listen to Rush,

and to me, he just has that soothing voice.

I can't turn him off.

I'd rather have a dead carcass be the president

than have Hillary be president. She's a felon in a pantsuit.

The Democrats are about to nominate

the most corrupt person ever nominated for president.

[AUDIENCE CHEERS, APPLAUDS]

STERN: Yeah, no. That's where you just wanna walk outside,

stick your thumb out, and hitchhike anywhere.

Yeah, Trump that bitch.

"Don't believe red, white, blue, take your ass home" on back.

DAVID: As a pastor, people say:

"How can you support Donald Trump?"

I said, "We're not electing him as my pastor."

I'm not electing him to be

"my Bible, Sunday school teacher."

STERN: Tami and Dave are socially conservative.

They run a church.

I believe in the sovereignty of God.

So I believe God can use good kings and bad kings.

TAMI: It is difficult to say:

"Because you committed adultery,

you're not worthy of being president,"

when there's been funny business in the White House already.

Look what happened to Bill Cosby.

Completely ruined his life on accusations.

But yet, Bill Clinton

we have all the facts with Lewinsky and others.

I mean, one man's guilty of rape,

the other's guilty of affairs, which is very different.

DAVID: Right. You can't...

You can't really go there, but...

DAVID: Judge not, lest ye be judged.

It's better not to start going down those roads,

as long as the person that you're looking at,

you're aware of those faults.

It's the secret things that I think people get upset about.

They just want somebody real, even if the real is kind of...

you know, boisterous and loud or whatever.

At least we know that's who he is.

And our enemies will know when he says:

"Hey, you better straighten up,

or I'll blow you off the face of the earth."

You say, "You can't say it that way."

"That's the way I said it."

He's from New York.[LAUGHS]

FRANK: In the end, what Obama has done with

tearing down the military and the police is despicable.

And Hillary will continue doing that.

STERN: Tell me what he's done

to tear down the military, police.

By inviting Black Lives Matter to the White House.

Saying that what they're doing is wonderful.

Tamir Rice was murdered by the Cleveland police.

It's despicable to me.

I wanna do everything I can

to get this administration out.

People say he might declare martial law,

and there won't be an election.

STERN: Martial law? Yeah.

Who said that? No.Everybody is saying that.

STERN: The thing that's really dangerous

is you get to a place like this,

you're around only people like this,

and start thinking, "Maybe I'm nuts."

It makes it really hard to understand.

TAMI: I'm pro-Second Amendment. You know, I am for guns.

I do not have my concealed permit now,

but I plan on getting it.

I'm getting to the place where I'm ready to carry.

The Second Amendment was put into place

because we had 13 colonies...

trying to defend themselves

against a global superpower in Britain.

But now it's as if it came down

from Mount Sinai or something like that.

This entire thing is about taking America back

to a time that no longer is viable.

It's hard to not feel cynical.

I look at my brother in politics

and works so hard for climate change.

And it's all dismissed here.

We, our United States, is the Saudi Arabia of coal.

There can be technologies built. We just gotta give it time.

The global warming issue is an absolute load of,

as Newt Gingrich says, crap.

It's being sold to the American public,

and it's wrong.

STERN: My brother Todd became

the special envoy in charge of climate change for Obama.

And he actually negotiated the Paris Accord.

We came together

around the strong agreement the world needed.

And I wanna give a special thanks to Secretary John Kerry,

my senior adviser, Brian Deese,

our chief negotiator, Todd Stern...

STERN: So for seven years, he's working on

the most important issue in the world, I think.

I'm proud of him every day.

Mother Earth will take care of herself.

Mother Earth will cleanse herself.

She always has.

I've seen the people I know in West Virginia,

where I hunt and fish and love to go,

that are out of work. It's sad.

[VOICE CRACKING] It's sad to see that happen.

STERN: Yeah.

I get choked up about coal.

Do you know what? There's good people out of work.

They're like family. It's hard.

STERN: I don't know what to do.

I can be empathic for the guy

and what he's going through.

I can't be sympathetic for his position.

What do you say to people who don't believe in climate change?

Well, we can measure it.

We know that the average temperature

of the planet is going up

and the temperature of the ocean too.

Coal releases twice as much carbon

per energy as natural gas does.

You can read about the terrible air problems

in China because of coal.

When we put CO2 into the atmosphere,

we change the climate for hundreds of thousands of years.

The war in Syria, the base of it was drought,

that drove people in desperation

from their farms into the city.

So the farther we get, the scarier it kind of is.

This country has a lot of the world's coal.

We could set a huge, positive, new direction

for the world by just cutting back on our own coal minings.

I have this sense of selling our souls to the devil

for, you know, a few more years of fossil fuel

that, you know, will leave the planet broken

that we can't fix.

[AUDIENCE CHEERING]

Win this!

Win!

TRUMP: My opponent wants to put

the great miners and the great steelworkers

of our country out of work and out of business.

[AUDIENCE BOOS]That will never happen

with Donald J. Trump as president.

Our steelworkers and our miners are going back to work again.

[AUDIENCE CHEERING]

STERN: I think he'll have a five-point bounce in the polls, minimum.

He's literally promised

everything that you could imagine,

and it's so convincing.

Our plan will put America first.

I will restore law and order to our country.

I will work with and appoint the best and brightest.

I will work to ensure that all of our kids are treated equally.

We are going to defeat the barbarians of ISIS.

We will repeal and replace...

I'm going to make our country rich again.

We will take care of our great veterans.

We will completely rebuild our depleted military.

We are going to build a great border wall.

I can build a wall around your homes

that nothing will penetrate.

[CHANTING] Build the wall! Build the wall!

Build the wall! Build the wall! Build the wall!

I alone can fix it.

I am the only one. Trust me.

I don't think it's gonna be close.

STERN: When I got home to Los Angeles, a few weeks later,

I watched the Democratic Convention with my daughter.

I started feeling better

into what I call the basket of deplorables.

[CROWD LAUGHS]

Right?

[CROWD APPLAUDS, CHEERS]

The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic,

Islamaphobic, you name it.

STERN: How does she not know that's not gonna be

a battle cry for his supporters?

Mitt Romney, in 2012,

said that 47-and-a-half percent of Americans

did not take responsibility for their lives.

And it cost him the election.

Here she is, so qualified.

First lady, senator, secretary of state.

She's been in public service 40 years.

Trump's supporters are so passionate.

Trump can get up, and he can say:

Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish,

the Second Amendment.

Nothing you can do, folks.[CROWD BOOS]

Although, the Second Amendment, people, maybe there is.

Passion trumps... Pardon the expression.

Passion beats pragmatism.

You can meet 10 people willing to go to the mat.

They will take out a hundred.

I've been reading this morning about the Hatfields and McCoys.

One family stole the other family's pig,

which is what started this.

Floyd Hatfield, a cousin of Devil Anse's, had the hog,

but Randolph McCoy claimed it was his, saying

the notches or markings on the pig's ears were McCoy,

not Hatfield marks.

It escalated after Roseanna McCoy

entered a relationship with Devil Anse's son Johnson,

known as "Johnse."

Johnse Hatfield abandoned the pregnant Roseanna

for her cousin, Nancy McCoy.

In 1979, the families united

for a special week's taping

of the popular game show, Family Feud.

So I wonder what the original Hatfields and McCoys,

who were slipping out under the dark of night

to kill each other would've thought of all this.

STERN: Of course, now the Hatfields and McCoys are friends,

doing things in the greater tradition of America,

making money together.

♪ Violence ♪

♪ Raging violence ♪

Now I'm official.

WOMAN: Can I get you to sign up? You sure can.

WOMAN: Do you want a bag?

HATFIELD: My name is David Hatfield.

And of course, we are part of the feuding Hatfields.

STERN: David sort of felt like the town's mayor to me.

He's into a bunch of different businesses.

He's made the town work for himself.

He's committed to this area.

HATFIELD: So many communities are just searching for a way

to re-purpose themselves or rejuvenate and bring in

another industry, we think that's tourism.

STERN: He's not in the coal industry,

but he understands, more than anybody,

how people are suffering.

HATFIELD: Friday night, everybody was out to the movies, bowling alleys.

Neighborhoods full of kids playing in the yard.

You know, doing what communities do: Being people.

And over the last 27 years...

I've watched whole neighborhoods just disappear.

We didn't diversify our economy

when we had the chance,

because people had the belief

we had enough coal to mine for 200 years,

200 years is a long time, we could kick it down the road.

Now we're struggling.

One of the hot-button topics in the election

is that elusive middle class.

You're talking about the myth, the legend.

It doesn't exist anymore, as far as I'm concerned.

West Virginia had a large middle-class population

of people that worked with their hands and built things

and helped make America what it is.

We have roots and that's what makes us who we are,

as people from Appalachia.

We keep our word, don't BS a lot,

and we're very hardworking people.

Make it rough if you were ever a politician.

[LAUGHING]No, it's real easy,

because that's what people... Listen.

I think that's what they like about Mr. Trump.

Mr. Trump says things that, if you're a politician,

you're not gonna say those things.

He is saying what a lot of America is thinking.

And I voted for President Obama both times.

[WOMAN VOCALIZING]

HATFIELD: That's where the coal would come across, that belt,

when they were loading the trains.

About three trains a day, 15,000 ton of coal per train

were going out to the fire plants and steel mills

at one time from this location.

Where do we go? How do we get jobs?

How do we get work?

[♪♪♪]

STERN: So all this has regrown in five years?

MAN: Yeah.

STERN: That's amazing.[LAUGHS]

You were expecting more of a totally decimated landscape.

Yes. Yes, yes. Right. Raw dirt and rock...

STERN: That's what I was expecting.

HATFIELD: Like an active mine site.

Many people don't realize when they flip that switch on

what makes that light come on.Absolutely.

With the coal from these mountains,

we powered the nation. We've done it for years.

We did it in World War II. We helped win the war.

But now we're being forgotten.Right.

And it's a terrible thing. I don't think you're forgotten.

I think you're shoved out.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[♪♪♪]

STERN: Brian made an impression. You may not agree with him,

but you're gonna know where he stands.

BRIAN: Morals.

Trump's better morally than Hillary.

Do you hear talk of Trump doing a whole bunch of crooked things?

You hear him getting accused of doing crooked things? No.

You hear about Hillary every day.

Where there's smoke, there's fire.

And how do you think Trump will be different?

I think Trump is obviously a businessman.

Obviously a damn good one, or he wouldn't be a billionaire.

STERN: There was an aspirational quality to Trump.

Trump's a billionaire.

If he can make billions for himself, he could help them.

Freddie, how long you been out of work?

Almost two years.

STERN: Out of work two years? Yes, sir.

For every coal mining job,

produces five to 10 jobs in West Virginia.

You ain't got no coal to haul,

this man's gonna be out of a job.

That's why I want Trump in there.

STERN: It felt, to me, really surprising

because I thought they would've thought that this billionaire,

who made so much money on the backs of the blue collar,

would not understand their situation,

but in fact, it was just the opposite.

ROLLERT: So much of the early part of a political campaign

is about establishing a particular reputation,

a particular brand.

Donald Trump didn't have to do that.

If your first impression of Donald Trump

came when The Apprentice started, for 14 years,

you've watched someone,

as a successful, decisive business person.

And no downsides are mentioned, right?

The lawsuits aren't mentioned.

Including the case of Trump University,

he charged people up to $35,000.

These are people coming to seminars

who are in tough circumstances.

To get them to go even further into debt

is shameful, frankly.

Those are not things put on the screen,

that you're watching.

So if Trump can say, "My success is Trump Tower."

My success is Mar-a-Lago.

My success is these buildings. So when naysayers,

"the 'haters, '" as he'll say,

"say something differently about me,

do you believe them or your eyes?"

Regardless of his background,

the fact that he does come from wealth,

he always presents himself as this underdog,

as this kind of self-created wonder,

because it suggests that you too

can become like Donald Trump.

When you talk to these voters in places like Ohio

or West Virginia, there is a sense

that he still can understand

and connect with your world.

It's really a remarkable political trick.

KRISTI: They showed up for work every day.

And done work many didn't wanna do.

I mean, it's living your life in a hole.

McNEELY: When I first started in mines,

I walked out and pulled my shirt off,

and he said, "God, what have I done?" I said, "What?"

"Your back look like a road map."

Where I hit rough bolts, hook nails. [GROANS]

You know, and I mean, you just hit them.

Keep on going. It's part of the job.

KRISTI: The backbone of this country is mining,

is steel, is manufacturing.

It's not handouts. It's not welfare.

What do people do that no longer...?

MAN: Exactly.

Well, people are on disability.

They're on a check, taking drugs.

What are we, 49 or 50 in poverty level?

And there is a tremendous crime rate...

Has the crime gone up? Of course.

MAN: I was in the neighborhood cookout.

They told me they couldn't even leave their home

to go to the grocery store,

because someone would try to rob them.

STERN: Is that right? Yeah.

West Virginia, did they vote for Bill Clinton?

I'm sure. MAN: We did, yes.

So when did it all switch?

When we got Obama.

He told us up front he was gonna try

to do away with coal mines.

Hillary is the extension of Obama.

Shares the same views.

Why would America want or need that again?

[♪♪♪]

STERN: Obama did not kill the coal industry.

It was on its way to being killed

because it was too expensive.

Clean energy is cheaper

and, in fact, natural gas is cheaper.

The fact of the matter is, of the coal industry jobs,

the vast majority would be lost to automation

even if the coal industry came back.

The only good-paying job in West Virginia.

We work nine hours a day, six days a week.

STERN: Six days a week?

We have some developable land

here in Beckley and Raleigh County.

But we can't get businesses to come here.

KRISTI: Like, I've got land on the strip,

and I can't get it released.

It's tied up in a reclamation bond.

I could put cabins or something up there,

but, no, I can't get my land turned over.

But I have to pay taxes on it...

You're free to pay taxes on it,

but you're not free to use it.

Most people fight with every breath they have,

all through their life,

to make it better.

And then they just don't let you.

They just take it all from you.

[SUCKS TEETH]

All he has to do is sign one executive order,

and do away with all of Obama's executive orders.

With or without Congress, Trump can do that.

STERN: Do you think that he's gonna win?

You know, let me tell you the truth.

Let's sit down. STERN: Sure.

MASSEY: Come on.

Let's talk about Hillary.

Hillary has done said her first day in office,

that she wants to do away with our Second Amendment rights.

I assure you that 99 percent of the people here

are well-armed and well-trained to use them.

KRISTI: Well, like Trump said,

have her guards lay down their weapons.

If she don't want us protected, why should she be protected?

Everything that she's ever been accused of,

possibly should be in jail for treason.

She didn't know it was against the law.

She didn't know having her own e-mail private server

in her bathroom at her house was against the law.

And people wanna vote for her for p... for president.

Bullshit.

Excuse me.

McHUGH: Going back to '93,

she was a profound threat

to the presidency.

So she came to the election with a lot of baggage.

She's certainly not perfect,

but here Hillary Clinton has a CV

of few people who have become president in terms of experience

in terms of background, in terms of expertise.

That's turned into, "She's an insider."

Stagnant, corrupt inside Washington.

It's about how things are framed.

Rush Limbaugh starts insulting her,

and he begins in the register of emasculation.

And then he quickly moves to:

"She reminds me of a hood ornament."

The Republicans are nothing,

if not organized and thoughtful.

It's never too early to undermine a potential threat.

There's been a systematic demonization of her

that I think takes everything that's positive about her,

converts it to a negative,

and does it affectively rather than rationally.

Should be imprisoned at the least.

STERN [CHUCKLES]: What's the most?

Well, if you go... Do you really wanna know?

[STERN CHUCKLING][CHUCKLES]

No. We better not say. Do you really wanna know?

No, no, don't say.

When you go against your country, what have you done?

You've committed treason.

How's treason punished?

The death penalty.

STERN: Um, well, yes, then I would say

prison is less than that for sure.

Um, uh...

[DOG BARKING]

[ENGINES RUMBLING]

STERN: If you're a New Yorker or Californian, you say:

"Why can't people have sensible gun laws?"

This is a different country.

What do they care about sensible gun laws?

It's a totally different mindset.

STERN: It's occurring to me that tomorrow night

is the biggest night of the election after all this.

It's easy to lose sight of when you're thinking about

the Hatfields and McCoys, the Matewans, and all this,

but tomorrow night is the first debate.

They say 100 million people are gonna watch this debate.

And they're saying that tomorrow night is...

The Bears are on. Who really cares?

My brain just snapped. I don't actually care anymore.

I just care about football.

[♪♪♪]

Orange juice, apple juice. I think...

If you have coffee, that'd be good.

Coffee's good for you?

We thank you, God, for bringing us together.

Lord, give us the strength to get at this morning.

Pray that you watch over us, protect us...

How'd the Bears do?

[♪♪♪]

STERN: Here we are a couple hours before the debate.

The polls are now fifty-fifty.

I'm nervous.

HATFIELD: Got some of our friends over.

Believe it or not, they're McCoys.

We're gonna sit here and watch the debate.

I'm sure it'll stay peaceful.

The only time I ever saw my mother and father sit down

and be nice to each other...

The night before the election in the local paper,

you get the sample ballot.

And they would sit at the table,

and they would talk... You know:

"Which one do we like?"

HOLT [ON TV]: The participants tonight

are Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

[CROWD CHEERING]

STERN: Who would America rather have dinner with?

That candidate always wins.

Obama versus Romney.

Obama versus McCain.

Clearly, Obama.

Bush versus Kerry. Bush.

Bush versus Gore. Even though Gore won in some ways,

he didn't win. He lost.

Bush became president. Before that, uh

clearly, Clinton both times.

Before that, Bush 41 over Dukakis.

Easy. Before that

Reagan, Reagan. Before that, Carter versus Ford.

You'd probably rather just order out.

Forget the whole thing.

But that was, again, coming off of Watergate.

Extenuating circumstances.

Before that, you would rather have dinner

with Nixon than McGovern.

Then Nixon-Humphrey, probably Humphrey.

That's the one exception.

But again, extenuating circumstances, Vietnam War.

Johnson over Goldwater, easy.

Kennedy over Nixon, easy.

And then Eisenhower, Eisenhower. All the way back

who America would rather have a beer with

or dinner with wins.

And America would rather have a beer with Donald Trump

despite how much people dislike him.

And it would be easier... The guy would drive me insane.

It'd be horrible. He'd be a narcissist.

And you'd wanna stab yourself with a fork.

But in a lot of ways,

you'd be more amused by Trump.

CLINTON: I have a feeling by the end,

I'll be blamed for everything that's ever happened.

Why not? Why not?

[ALL LAUGH]

I'm leaning toward Trump, but really it's up in the air.

I can't say that...

Traditionally, the Democratic Party

in recent years, especially during my lifetime

have been the party of the working person.

And he's bringing some of those votes

over to that side

just because he is more of a common man

and more appealing to that.

Why do you think he is, given his background?

HATFIELD: Because he was wealthy to start with?

Wealthy to start with.

He's been, you know... Made billions of dollars.

He's, you know, not paid...

3500 lawsuits from common workers

like people who live here, um,

by not paying them their full share.

I mean, by his entire... By his entire life.

Except for the last year and half

that he's been running. HATFIELD: Mmm.

HATFIELD: I don't know. That's a good question.

McCOY: But he's saying everything

that the working man would like to have come true.

TRUMP: I was getting beaten up for 72 hours

on all the networks

for inappropriate words 12 years ago.

Locker-room talk, whatever you wanna call it.

Trump has been exposed for having sexual deviancy

at the Access Hollywood where he said:

[MAN LAUGHING]

STERN: Republicans are jumping ship.

People talked about getting him off the ticket.

People are saying the Republican Party

is imploding now more than any moment since Watergate.

And the debate is tonight.

Hi, Eric. Hi, Jim. Jim Stern. How are you? Good.

Sam.Olga.

STERN: People here think Hillary's gonna be able

to finally use his words against him

to really bring him down.

What do you guys hope happens tonight?

I hope that Trump does not get away with masking

the dangerous nature of his instincts,

his policies and his views.

And that they come full circle.

And that people actually get a sense of the horror

of what it would be like if he were to take office.

COOPER [ON TV]: You called what you said "Locker-room banter."

You describe kissing women without consent,

grabbing their genitals. That is sexual assault.

You bragged that you have sexually assaulted women.

Do you understand that?

No, I didn't say that at all.

I don't think you understood. This was locker-room talk.

Uh, I'm not proud of it.

Nobody has more respect for women than I do.

COOPER: You're saying you never did that?

TRUMP: I've said things... I'll tell you, I haven't.

COOPER: Secretary Clinton, do you wanna respond?

You know, with prior Republican nominees for president,

I disagreed with them.

But I never questioned their fitness to serve.

Donald Trump is different.

I said starting back in June

that he was not fit to be the president.

[♪♪♪]

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

MAN 1: I thought she...

MAN 2: She did fine. She held her own.

MAN 3: She didn't have huge gaffes. That's what she needs.

I thought Hillary did well tonight.

In this room, I think we all share the sentiment that

this is a joke. It shouldn't even be a discussion.

MAN 2: I don't think he gained any points.

MAN 3: A lot of people are against the establishment now because

you're told everything's going well, but, you know,

Middle America, small towns, like where I'm from,

you're there, it's just not the same thing.

WOMAN 1: The demographics never added up.

You need women, people of color.

All these segments are much larger

and growing than his sliver of displaced, white workers.

STERN: So there's three blind men. And they come across

what they don't realize is an elephant.

And one blind guy grabs it by the leg.

And the other blind guy grabs its trunk.

And the third blind guy grabs its tail.

The first guy says, "We just came across a tree."

And the second one says, "What are you talking about?

I have a... It's a rope. It's a rope."

And the third one says:

"You guys are both wrong. It's a vine."

And that's kinda how I feel about this year's politics.

I mean, we're all trying to look at the same thing.

But, we all have different pieces of the whole,

and none of us are looking at the whole.

[♪♪♪]

The guy has imploded.

I was wrong to think that he could win.

Saying that because he's a star, he can grab a pussy.

Yeah, that pretty much pushes it over the edge.

I mean, it's disgusting.

Look at the ways he's mocked people,

and made fun of women and called them fat.

You know, and, oh, "I couldn't have"

sexually harassed that woman

"because she's not pretty enough," he says.

♪ Lonesome city's Got a hold on my soul ♪

♪ Lonesome city ♪

STERN: So we're at the Arizona Republic.

First time in 124 years

that the Arizona Republic has endorsed a Democrat.

And as a result, they've gotten death threats,

and people incredibly angry about it.

BOAS: Millions of Americans either cannot discern

or they don't care that he is a bad human being,

that he has no business being in the Oval Office.

In November of 2015, when Trump was doing a rally

in Birmingham, Alabama, there was a black protestor

in the crowd, and he started yelling.

Trump supporters surrounded him,

beating and kicking him.

And Trump got up at the stage,

and he said, "Get him the hell out of here."

Yeah, get him the hell out of here,

will you? Throw him out.

At that point, we did an editorial,

and we just said to our readers, "Stop and take a moment,

think about what he just did."

This is something new and ominous

on the American political scene

to have somebody inciting violence.

Very soon after that happened,

Trump stands up at one of his rallies

and mocks a New York Times reporter who is disabled.

Uh, I don't know what I said. Uh, I don't remember.

BOAS: If somebody running for mayor of Phoenix did that,

that would be an immediate disqualifier.

And it should be a disqualifier

for the highest office in the land.

One day, it's going to be clear

that this was a really dangerous man

who was right on the cusp of the White House.

He is just a man of his upbringing.

Well, I was born and raised in Brooklyn.

So I understand New York people.

They did not allow someone to bully them.

You stood up for yourself. And that's Trump.

You stand up for yourself.

You don't get bullied, and go, "Oh, I'm sorry."

MITCHELL: When I went in the Air Force,

I put up my right hand, and I did an oath

that I would defend the country.

I don't feel like Hillary will defend the country,

but I think Mister Trump will.

What she did was unethical and illegal.

And possibly treasonous.

I'd be visiting you in jail if you'd done it.

She doesn't care about Americans.

She just cares about money.

She has been proven time and time and time again

to care about money.

That's it.

Power and money.

STERN: And you think Trump is different than that?

Yes.

He's a megalomaniac. Could you imagine

endowing somebody like that

with the most awesome power on earth?

What would that do to him?

[MAN LAUGHS]

I'm not gonna get the vapors off of the word "pussy,"

but I get the vapors off of these women

who didn't do anything.

I never heard of Trump with a black eye.

Or a face-plant on his face.

Or a broken nose.

What in the hell's wrong with these women?

When I was discriminated against in the Air Force,

I went to the IG, and I filed complaints.

I took care of it.

I wasn't a namby-pamby. What is wrong with these women?

Orchestrated baloney.

I'm offended by them.

BOAS: He is questioning the legitimacy of the election.

Saying, "You cannot trust the results"

of this upcoming vote."

If one out of eight isn't a legal voter,

how can it not be rigged?

STERN: I don't believe it. Not for a second.

I think you're naive. I don't.

Delegitimizing this country with that kind of rhetoric

I think is wrong, I actually think it's unpatriotic.

Well, it might be unpatriotic,

but unfortunately, I think it's true.

Um, because...

STERN: I see no evidence of it whatsoever.

There's no evidence of any of this.

Zero.

The local elections are controlled by both parties.

Why would one party be so benefitted?

It doesn't make any sense to me.

I don't know.

I just think there's voter fraud.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: So, what would you say to a woman

who says one out of every eight votes is fraudulent?

And she knows that because she's read it.

When I pressed for as to where she's read it,

she just sort of shrugs.

This is an algorithmic process.

This is a process where the data...

There's all this cloud of data out there,

and how are these pieces chosen that come to this person?

Well, it already depends on her existing worldview.

For this lady in Arizona, it's her own sort of ecosystem

of feeling, probably, disenfranchised and disconnected

from kind of mainstream American political institutions.

We don't trust the FBI.

We don't trust the Justice Department.

I don't trust the president.

I don't trust the Supreme Court.

SRINIVASAN: If you have those sorts of feelings, and you express them,

there's lots of ways in which technologies

can actually understand your feelings.

This is what we call "sentiment analysis."

This is a huge deal that's gonna spiral out of control

in terms of what you have coming toward you.

And that might be linked stories,

but we know that those are highly subjectively chosen

and planted, right?

So the fake news phenomenon is just a manifestation

of something that's always existed,

but it's that much more glaring

because of how these platforms function,

Facebook, Google, and so on

where content is actually served to you based on these biases.

Think about the numbers in this country.

About 75 percent of American adults have Facebook accounts.

For someone to be on the platform

where they look at cat videos

and pictures of their friends' babies,

but also spend three seconds or less

looking at political news stories

that are profiled for someone.

That's the way to get heard.

STERN: Do you see this as dangerous?

It's extremely dangerous to democracy

because democracy is fundamentally

about the acceptance of multiple viewpoints

and the ability to rationally, um, experience a world

that's wider than yourself.

It's not about an atomized set of bubbles

that you don't even know are being constructed around you.

If Hillary wins,

I-I would recommend to Trump

that he do everything in his power

to go through every last vote if it were possible.

Because I will not believe for one minute

that she won fair and square.

The Democrat Party, which is...

um, no better than Gaddafi.

STERN: Strong words. In my opinion.

STERN: Strong words.Yeah.

Yeah. Chop your head off. Oh, well.

If they could, they would.

[BUGS CHIRPING]

[ENGINE STARTS]

LADD: This is it.

The fallacies of the perception of America

that they think that there's a huge infrastructure here,

and they're crawling with Border Patrol agents.

But it's pretty obvious that this is what we have.

This is all our ranch on this side.

Pretty big wall.

You don't need to climb it.

[CHUCKLES]LADD: Those are flood gates.

They lift open for four months of the year for...

Our floods come out of Mexico, headed north.

Illegals can come through here?

LADD: Well, they caught half a million on our ranch

in the last 25 years.Jesus.

Half a million, wow.

STERN: How big is your ranch?

LADD: Sixteen thousand acres.[STERN WHISTLES]

We passed one Border Patrol.

What can they do?

Washington won't recognize the problem

because there's so much money's involved.

Right. One of my sayings is:

"Republicans want cheap labor, Democrats want cheap votes

and American people want cheap tomatoes."

[CHUCKLING] That's brilliant.Yeah.

So they won't staff the Border Patrol

with what's needed, manpower.Right.

They'll spend millions of dollars on technology.

But you also have to have boots on the ground

in order to follow up what the cameras,

the sensors, the radar finds.Right.

And people don't get it, that don't live here.

[♪♪♪]

LADD: We're not leaving, and-and you just face it.

And I don't try and stop people.

I call the Border Patrol. I call our Sheriff. Yup.

The danger, for me, is getting in the middle of something.

Wrong time, wrong place.

MAN: I knew that was you. Whaddaya up to?

LADD: Being important again doing an interview.

MAN: Oh, Lord! Who are you voting for?

MAN: I can't talk about that crap anymore.

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

I'll get in trouble. I know.

Even before they started falling out this time,

I said, you know, "Trump is the only one"

that stands up for what he believes in,

"whether it's right or wrong."

[WHIRRING]

LADD: There's a drone.

STERN: What is that?

LADD: Somebody's got a drone right here.

STERN: What the hell is that?

That's from the Mexicans? LADD: Yeah.

What are they looking for? Looking at us.

So they wanna know what we're doing?

Sure. That's incredible.

The bigger ones are carrying dope across, you know

into California. It's documented.

They pick up... There's dope in the drones?

Five pounds.

STERN [SCOFFS]: It's a Mexican drug cartel drone.

LADD: Sure.

[♪♪♪]

JONES: I have waited on the tee on Hole 14

for the illegals to cross the fairway

so we don't hit them with the damn drive.

The border's secure? Ha.

The Border Patrol admits to only catching three out of 10.

They know that at least seven out of 10 get away.

I've picked up hypodermic needles.

It's a health crisis.

Pregnancy tests. Not to mention defecating in my pasture.

Which is my front yard, by the way.

Something that is sadly overlooked

in the discussion about immigration

is the hundreds, the hundreds of souls

who perish in our desert every year.

DAVIS: Yes. Yes.

You know what a rape tree is?

The bad illegals come across the border

and any women that are with them, um,

they rape them.

They take their underwear, hang it on a tree.

I know ranchers all along the border.

I don't know one that hasn't found

a dead body on their place.

WOMAN: Or saved a person. DAVIS: Or saved somebody.

They want Middle America to think that we're vigilantes.

We're deplorable. But I've taken care of

countless illegals that have come across through my property.

I've given them food, water.

STERN: How close are you to the border?

DAVIS: 25 miles from the border.

JONES: So you're far.

Border Patrol's north of me.

I'm your first line of defense. Don't you feel safe now?

If Hillary's elected, she wants tighter gun control.

What are we supposed to do

when we are out there, a sitting duck?

[SIGHS]

DAVIS: People wonder why we're Trump supporters.

[SIGHS] We've been trying to get attention

to this problem for 20 years.

He's the first candidate who's paid attention?

He's the first one.

Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution

says the government will protect you

from all invaders, foreign and domestic.

What's happening and what has happened for 20 years

is no less than an invasion.

But what do we do about it?

STERN: You vote for... You vote for Trump.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: These people have a different set of

issues and problems than we have.

TRUMP [ON TV]: She wants open borders,

people are gonna pour into our country.

People are gonna...

[TRUMP & CLINTON SPEAKING AT ONCE]

[♪♪♪]

We're just a spot on nothing.

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

The people sitting here, we're nothing.

And we don't have a say about it.

But, by God, I'm gonna vote.

I'll vote if I have to crawl.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: As of today, Hillary has a 92 percent chance to win

according to The New York Times.

How much of a speck do you think

they're gonna feel like when they lose?

I've never seen anyone with those odds

blow an election three weeks out.

The FBI has reopened its investigation

into Hillary Clinton and discovered...

[CROWD CHEERING]

And discovered another 650,000 e-mails.

[CROWD EXCLAIMING, BOOING]

I think we hit the mother lode,

as they say in the good old mining industry.

[CROWD CHEERING]

And I have to give the FBI credit,

that was so bad what happened originally.

And it took guts for Director Comey

to make the move that he made

in light of the kind of opposition he had.

What he did, he brought back his reputation.

He brought it back.

STERN: Ooh, news flash, news flash.

"FBI Director James Comey has told the U.S. Congress

"that a review of additional Clinton e-mails

"does not change their previous conclusion

that she should not face charges."

But it did not stop him

from making this into a whole big fucking deal.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

[♪♪♪]

WOMAN: He's walking in the parking lot.

[CROWD CHEERING]

All right.

ERIC: Let's get a big group photo.

ALL: Trump! Trump! Trump!

[CHANTING CONTINUES]

[ALL CHEERING]

Thank you guys. Thank you so much. Honestly.

We're gonna take our country back.

CROWD: Yeah!

ERIC: All right, come on, let's go.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

Welcome to Florida. We're back.

MAN: What a surprise. STERN: How you doing?

Nice to see you. Wow. Good to see you too.

ERIC: All day long I've had people saying:

"I've been a Democrat my entire life.

I'm coming out for your father."

People say: "I'm embarrassed to say

I've never voted. We're coming out for your father."

I think we're gonna win in a very, very big way.

[CROWD CHEERING]

ALL: Trump! Trump! Trump!

[CHANTING CONTINUES]

[♪♪♪]

FAVREAU: Welcome to Keepin' It 1600, I'm Jon Favreau.

LOVETT: I'm Jon Lovett.

FAVREAU: How you feeling, Plouffe?

PLOUFFE: I think she'll win the Midwestern states.

I mean, you know, maybe

Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan.

Of all the battlegrounds, I think the only one

that he's probably more likely to win is Iowa.

I think she's looking at,

worst case, probably 324 electoral votes.

Trump's got a ceiling. He's a terrible candidate,

and he's just not able to push past

45, 46 in most states.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: David Plouffe got Obama elected twice.

He's the smartest guy in politics I know of.

After all this on the morning of,

if he says she's winning

320, 340 electoral votes, I am good.

FRANK: I have never seen such long lines, even for Obama in 2008.

Everybody's voting for Trump.

Nobody can figure out where these polls are coming from.

The way that Hillary would win

this thing is just through fraud.

If they think that Trump is winning Florida

at 5:07, all of these buses

are gonna show up at the local polls.

People are gonna get out,

and they're gonna magically go in and vote.

That's why Democrats win by tremendous margins.

STERN: Well, there are people who vote Democrat. That does happen.

Legitimately.Yeah. Some of my family.

TAMI: It'll surprise all of us

if Trump doesn't win tonight.

There's no Hillary signs anywhere.

There's no Hillary supporters on street corners anywhere.

No Hillary people knocking on doors.

STERN: How many hours a day have you been working?

MARTINEZ: At least 16 hours.

STERN: Sixteen-hour days.

When you see long lines, people want a change in government.

And that's why I think it's a movement.

He was not supposed to get to first base,

and look at him. He's close to home.

He might have to slide in, but he's got a shot.

STERN: He's rounding third. For sure.

MARTINEZ: Yeah.

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

These people are gonna have a bad night.

I think it says something nice about America

that at the end, they rejected all this.

There's Joyce. Is that Joyce?

Yeah, that's Joyce.

Listen, my predictions all stand.

It's Trump, and we'll know by 10:15.

Might as well be bold.

[LAUGHING] How are you? Good. How you doing?

Good, really good.

STERN: How are you feeling?

I'm very positive.

I'm very encouraged.

I'm less excited about Florida.Interesting.

Florida's tightened up in a way I didn't expect.

That's interesting.

KAUFMAN: If he wins Florida, then it's over.

Michigan's in play.Yeah.

Minnesota's in play. I think North Carolina's a win.

I think he's going to have a substantial amount of support

from blue-collar Democrats all over this country.

I have never been as impressed

as I am with the American people right now.

I think they have ignored the calls against them

of racism and bigotry.

They've said, "It's nothing to do with who we don't like."

It has to do with who we are."

And we are, fundamentally, a country.

We should have borders, a language,

and we should be proud to be Americans.

That's why people come here.

And, believe me, I'm not an optimistic person by nature.

You're a realist, and you're smart as hell, I get that.

Well, thank you. But I think, more than anything

I'm hopeful... STERN: Yeah.

That this will be the beginning of a new...

A new start for a great America.

We've always been great, but I think we're gonna be greater.

That scared me.

Somehow, Joyce's certainty that he's gonna win

at 6:00 just shook me up.

REPORTER 1: It's 7 p.m. in the east,

the final polls are closing in six states.

And exit polling is showing us

that we may be in for a long night.

REPORTER 2: Seven-twenty in the east.

We are moments away from polls closing...

REPORTER 3: Fox News projected Donald Trump will win West Virginia.

[CROWD CHEERING]

Can I get a margarita with salt?

REPORTER 3: We project that Republican Donald Trump

will win Missouri based on...

[CROWD CHEERING]

STERN: She's up in all the swing states,

but I don't know if it's gonna hold.

She's at 252 and he's at 2... 163.

It's over, right?

He's ahead. He's ahead in Florida.

Yeah.

REPORTER 2: Can now project that Trump will win Alabama...

[CROWD CHEERING]

Trump!

MAN: Trump! Trump! Trump!

REPORTER 2: This just in, ready to make another call.

Donald Trump has won the state of Arkansas.

[CROWD CHEERING]

He could be our next president.

[TV PLAYING INDISTINCTLY]

STERN: I guess it's not fucking rigged, is it?

Oh, it's rigged. It's all fucking rigged.

Except it's not when you win.

They hate her.

And they hate Obama too.

[CROWD CHEERING]

Congratulations. I think you have the next president.

And was that your president or not?

No.

I am going to try my hardest

to do two things:

Not to cry.

And to lose with grace, if that's the way this goes.

[♪♪♪]

I'm gonna try and not think of the seven years...

that my brother's worked

on climate change for this country and this world,

which would get dissolved in a second

if we lose this election.

And that it matters.

And how much it matters.

And the increase in bullying and the...

The... You know, more guns

and xenophobia

what's gonna happen to the economy, and... Oh, my God.

But...

we've survived a lot.

So maybe we'll survive this too, if this guy wins.

Maybe it won't come to that. Maybe it won't come to that.

[CROWD CHEERING]

REPORTER: Right now, a historic moment.

We can now project the winner of the presidential race.

CNN projects Donald Trump wins the presidency.

The business tycoon and TV personality

capping his improbable political journey

with an astounding upset victory, Donald J. Trump...

[♪♪♪]

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

OBAMA: So this was a long and hard-fought campaign.

A lot of our fellow Americans are exalted today.

A lot of Americans are less so.

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

OBAMA: That's the way politics works sometimes.

We try really hard to persuade people that

we're right. And then people vote.

And then if we lose,

we try even harder the next time.

And that's why I'm confident that

this incredible journey that we're on

as Americans, will go on.

STERN: I've been thinking about what to tell my kids.

When I started, I didn't understand

why people were so mad at Obama

and by extension, Hillary Clinton.

But on the road from Florida

to West Virginia and Arizona,

not to mention 20,000 chanting in Cleveland

I found people who felt like they weren't being heard.

So was it surprising they listened to a man who told them

they would no longer be forgotten?

This American carnage stops right here

and stops right now.

[CROWD CHEERING]

STERN: As I fear for the future

I think the ebb and flow of history might be

the best comfort I can give my kids.

And myself, actually.

Because if Gore had won, we may not have gotten Obama.

Someone opposite of Trump will come next,

I damn well guarantee it.

STERN: I just hope that when he or she does,

the pendulum won't just sway its full arc

but might just pause halfway.

And people in red states

won't feel shoved out,

even as those of us in the blue states

feel a renewal of hope.

[♪♪♪]

STERN: Do you think that he is going to make America great again?

Well, you have to define "great again."

He has been very successful

as far as accomplishments in his first 100 days.

I give Melania an A plus, plus, plus.

I think she is spectacular.

If the left is unhappy,

then that probably means I'm happy.

So many people are unwilling to accept him as president.

You know, when all of us that did not vote for Obama

felt the same way, we really did,

yet we didn't display it.

If the guy rescued a kitten, they would say that

he doesn't like dogs.

It's just baloney what they're putting

on television and the radio.

It's like I'm living in

a perpetual loop of The Brady Bunch.

Except it's not "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia,"

it's "Russia, Russia, Russia."

If he asked for my advice, I'd tell him:

"Go forward, we're gonna be with you."

Maybe I'll have to carry an M60 with me,

"but yeah, go for it."

Would I vote for him again?

In a heartbeat. In a heartbeat.
