you know once again uh donald is implying that  he didn't support the invasion of iraq i said  

it was a mistake i said that years ago he has  consistently denied what is a very clear fact that  

before the invasion he supported it and you know i  just want everybody to go google it google donald  

trump iraq and you will see the dozens of sources  which verify that he was for the invasion of iraq  

and you can actually hear the audio of  him saying that now why does that matter  

well it matters because he has not told the truth  about that position i guess he believes it makes  

him look better now to contrast with me because i  did vote for it but what's really important here  

is to understand all the interplay mosul is  a sunni city mosul is on the border of syria  

and yes we do need to go after baghdadi and just  like we went after bin laden uh while you were  

doing celebrity apprentice and we brought him  to justice we need to go after the leadership  

but we need to get rid of them get rid of their  fighters their estimated several thousand fighters  

in mosul they've been digging underground they've  been prepared to defend it's going to be tough  

fighting but i think we can take back mosul and  then we can move on into syria and take back raqqa  

this is what we have to do i'm i'm just amazed  that he seems to think that the iraqi government  

and our allies and everybody else launched uh  the attack on mosul to help me in this election  

but that's how donald thinks you know he always  looking for something chris we don't gain anything  

iran is taking over iraq secretary  clinton iran is taking over

the one that's in fit you know wikileaks just  actually came out john podesta said some horrible  

things about you and boy was he right he said  some beauties and you know bernie sanders  

uh he said you have bad judgment you do and if you  think that going into mosul after we let the world  

know we're going in and all of the people that we  really wanted the leaders they're all gone if you  

think that was good then you do now john podesta  said you have terrible instincts bernie sanders  

said you have bad judgment i agree with both well  you should ask bernie sanders who he's supporting  

for president and he has said which is pain for  me around the country you are the most dangerous  

person to run for president in the modern history  of america i think he's right let's turn to aleppo  

mr trump in the last debate you were both asked  about the situation in the syrian city of aleppo  

and i want to follow up on that because you  said several things in that debate which  

were not true sir you said that aleppo has  basically fallen in fact there in fact there are  

it's a catastrophe it is a catastrophe but there  are a quarter have you seen it have you seen it  

so have you seen what's happened to elephants i  might finish my question okay so it hasn't fallen  

take a look at it well there are a quarter  of a million people still living there and  

being slaughtered that's right and they are  being slaughtered because of bad decisions  

if i may just finish here and you also said  that isis that syria and russia are busy  

fighting isis in fact they have been the ones  who've been bombing and shelling eastern aleppo  

uh and they just announced a humanitarian pause  in effect admitting that they have been bombing  

and shelling aleppo would you like to clear that  up well aleppo is a disaster it's a humanitarian  

nightmare but it has fallen from the state  from any standpoint i mean what do you need  

a signed document take a look at aleppo  it is so sad when you see what's happened  

and a lot of this is because of hillary clinton  because what's happened is by fighting assad who  

turned out to be a lot tougher than she thought  and now she's going to say oh he loves assad  

she's he's just much tougher and much smarter than  her and obama and everyone thought he was gone two  

years ago three years ago he lined he aligned  with russia he now also aligned with iran who  

we made very powerful we gave them 150 billion  dollars back we give them 1.7 billion in cash  

i mean cash bundles of cash as big as this  stage we gave them 1.7 billion dollars now  

they have lined he has aligned with russia and  with iran they don't want isis but they have other  

things because we're backing we're backing rebels  we don't know who the rebels are we're giving them  

lots of money lots of everything we don't know who  the rebels are and when and if and it's not going  

to happen because you have russia and you have  iran now but if they ever did overthrow assad  

you might end up with as bad as assad is and he's  a bad guy but you may very well end up with worse  

than assad if she did nothing we'd be in much  better shape and this is what's caused the great  

migration where she's taken in tens of thousands  of syrian refugees who probably in many cases  

not probably who are definitely in many cases  isis-aligned and we now have them in our country  

and where do you see what is going to be  the great trojan horse and where do you see  

what happens in the coming years lots of luck  hillary thanks a lot for doing a great job  

secretary clinton you have talked about and in  the last debate and again today that you would  

impose a no-fly zone to try to protect the people  of aleppo and to stop the killing there president  

obama has refused to do that because he fears  it's going to draw us closer or deeper into the  

conflict and general joseph dunford the chairman  of the joint chiefs of staff says you impose a  

no-fly zone chances are you're going to get into  a war his words with syria and and russia so the  

question i have is if you impose a no-fly zone  first of all how do you respond to their concerns  

secondly if you impose a no-fly zone and a russian  plane violates that does president clinton shoot  

that plane down well chris first of all i think a  no-fly zone could save lives and could hasten the  

end of the conflict i am well aware of the really  legitimate concerns that you have expressed from  

both the president and the general this would  not be done just on the first day this would  

take a lot of negotiation it would also take  making it clear to the russians and the syrians  

that our purpose here was to provide safe zones  on the ground we've had millions of people leave  

syria and those millions of people uh inside syria  who've been dislocated so i think we could strike  

a deal and make it very clear to the russians  and the syrians that this was something that we  

believe was in the best interests of the people  on the ground in syria it would help us with our  

fight against isis but i want to respond to what  donald said about refugees he's made these claims  

repeatedly i am not going to let anyone into  this country who is not vetted who we do not  

have confidence in but i am not going to slam  the door on women and children i that picture  

of that little four-year-old boy in aleppo with  the blood coming down his face while he sat in  

an ambulance is haunting and so we are going to do  very careful thorough vetting that does not solve  

our internal challenges with isis and our need to  stop radicalization to work with american muslim  

communities who are on the front lines to identify  and prevent attacks in fact the killer of the  

dozens of people at the nightclub in orlando the  pulse nightclub was born in queens the same place  

donald was born so let's be clear about what the  threat is and how we are best going to be able  

to meet it and yes some of that threat emanates  from over in syria and iraq and we've got to keep  

fighting and i will defeat isis and some of it is  we have to up our game and be much smarter here  

i want to get into our final segment but i just  have to it's so ridiculous what you she will  

defeat isis we should have never let isis happen  in the first place and right now they're in 32  

countries wait one second they had aces fire three  weeks ago a ceasefire united states russia syria  

and during the ceasefire russia took over  vast swatches of land and then they said we  

don't want the ceasefire anymore we are  so outplayed on missiles on ceasefires  

they are outplayed now she wasn't there  i assume she had nothing to do with it  

but our country is so outplayed by putin  and assad and by the way and by iran  

nobody can believe how stupid our leadership is  mr trump secretary clinton no we need to move  

on to our final segment and that is the national  debt which has not been discussed until tonight  

our national debt is the share of the  economy our gdp is now 77 that's the highest  

since just after world war ii but the nonpartisan  committee for a responsible federal budget says  

secretary clinton under your plan debt would  rise to 86 percent of gdp over the next 10 years  

mr trump under your plan they say it would  rise to 105 of gdp over the next 10 years  

question is why are both of you ignoring this  problem mr trump you go first well i say they're  

wrong because i'm going to create tremendous jobs  and we're bringing gdp from really one percent  

which is what it is now and if she got in it'll  be less than zero but we're bringing it from one  

percent up to four percent and i actually think we  can go higher than four percent i think you can go  

to five or six percent and if we do you don't  have to bother asking your question because we  

have a tremendous machine we will have created  a trend tremendous economic machine once again  

to do that we're taking back jobs we're not going  to let our companies be rated by other countries  

where we lose all our jobs we don't make our  product anymore it's very sad but i'm going  

to create a the kind of a country that we were  from the standpoint of industry we used to be  

there we've given it up we've become very very  sloppy we've had people that are political hacks  

making the biggest deals in the world bigger than  companies you take these big companies these trade  

deals are far bigger than these companies and yet  we don't use our great leaders many of whom back  

me and many of whom back hillary i must say but  we don't use those people those are the people  

these are the greatest negotiators in the world  we have the greatest business people in the world  

we have to use them to negotiate our trade  deals we use political hacks we use people  

that get the position because they gave they  made a campaign contribution and they're dealing  

with china and people that are very much smarter  than they are so we have to use our great people  

but that being said we will create an economic  machine the likes of which we haven't seen  

in many decades and people chris will again go  back to work and they'll make a lot of money  

and we'll have companies that will grow and  expand and start from new secretary clinton well  

first when i when i hear donald talk like that  and know that his slogan is make america great  

again i wonder when he thought america was great  uh and before he rushes and says you know before  

you and president obama were there i think  it's important to recognize that he has been  

criticizing um our government for decades  you know back in 1987 he took out a 100  

000 ad in the new york times during the  time when president reagan was president  

and basically said exactly what he just said  now that we were the laughing stock of the world  

he was criticizing president reagan this is the  way donald thinks about himself puts himself  

into you know the middle and says you know i alone  can fix it as he said on the convention stage  

but if you look at the debt which is the issue  you asked about chris i pay for everything i'm  

proposing i do not add a penny to the national  debt i take that very seriously because i do  

think it's one of the issues we've got to come to  grips with so when i talk about how we're going to  

pay for education how we're going to invest in  infrastructure how we're going to get the cost  

of prescription drugs down and a lot of the other  issues that people talk to me about all the time  

i've made it very clear we are going where the  money is we are going to ask the wealthy and  

corporations to pay their fair share and there is  no evidence whatsoever that that will slow down  

or diminish our growth in fact i think just the  opposite we'll have what economists call middle  

out growth we've got to get back to rebuilding  the middle class the families of america  

that's where growth will come from that's why  i want to invest in you i want to invest in  

your family and i think that's the smartest way  to grow the economy to make the economy fairer  

and we just have a big disagreement about this  it may be because of our experiences you know  

he started off with his dad as a millionaire i  started off with my dad he's a small businessman  

we've heard this before i think it's you know it's  a difference that affects how we see the world and  

what we want to do with the economy time thank  you hillary could i just respond well not well no  

because i didn't agree with ronald reagan  very strongly on trade i disagreed with him  

we should have been much tougher on trade  even then i've been waiting for years  

nobody does it right and frankly now  we're going to do it right all right i  

the one last area i want to get into with you in  this debate is the fact that the biggest driver  

of our debt is entitlements which is 60 of all  federal spending now the committee for federal  

uh responsible federal budget has looked at  both of your plans and they say neither of you  

has a a serious plan that is going to solve the  fact that that medicare is going to run out of  

money in the 2020s social security is going to  run out of money in the 2030s and at that time  

recipients are going to take huge cuts in their  benefits so in effect the final question i want  

to ask you in this regard is and let me start with  you mr trump would president trump make a deal to  

save medicare and social security that included  both tax increases and benefit cuts in effect  

a grand bargain on entitlements i'm cutting taxes  we're going to grow the economy it's going to grow
