-- Coverage of Quinnipiac poll showing HRC polling low on trust and honesty
in Colorado, Virginia, and Iowa. Says she is losing to all three Republican
front runners in the new poll in these three states. Jessica Tarlov joins
the show and says that people are a little sick of HRC not answering
questions and the press being roped off, they’re sick of the emails
although Tarlov says she doesn’t think that’s the biggest deal in the world.
Says Benghazi has been talked about a little more especially over
Chattanooga. Says this doesn’t mean that she’s free falling, and the
general election was always going to be close. Tarlov says her advice to
HRC would be to be more open with people. Says it’s the slow drip of
information that is problematic. Tammy Bruce says it’s not about the issues
with HRC, it’s about her manner and nature. Says people want something
different and speaks to the fact that HRC is not going to get better
because she’s not going to get new anytime soon. Anthony Scaramucci says
HRC is going to wait since this is so early and her dodging strategy is
something that she did very successfully in her 2000 senate race. Says HRC
has a declining slope of likeability whereas Scott Walker has an inclining
slope of likeability. Host says HRC’s unfavorability ratings are even
higher than in 2007. Making Money with Charles Payne

-- Coverage of Quinnipiac poll showing HRC polling low on character issues.
Ed Henry reports that HRC’s bid has run into a summer stall. Says HRC is
losing to all three Republican front runners in the new poll in three
states. Says favorability rating has declined. Shows clip of Ed Rollins
saying this is a hard number to change because HRC has been in the public
eye for so long. Shows clip of Joe Trippi saying none of the Republicans
have a lock on the nomination. Ed Henry shows HRC video on gender card.
Says Carly Fiorina says Republicans need to spend more time working to
defeat HRC rather than focusing on one another. Henry says the polls
present an opening for Biden or another Democrat to join the race. Special

Quinnipiac Poll Implications <https://vantageuploader.dnc.org/videos/41619>

-- Coverage of Quinnipiac poll showing HRC losing to Bush, Walker, and
Rubio in Colorado, Iowa, and Virginia. Says honesty, trustworthiness, and
favorability are all low in these polls as well. Notes that the one thing
HRC does have is leadership qualities according to the poll. Kirsten Powers
says these numbers are on par with the national polls which say HRC is a
good leader. Some people have pointed to WJC saying that he won even when
people didn’t trust him. Says we don’t know if the Republican numbers are
because of the trustworthiness issue or if it’s the fact that she didn’t
have any real opponents before, and now she has real alternatives. Charles
Krauthammer says the more you see HRC the more her numbers go down, and
that’s the sign of a weak candidate. Says the surprising thing is the
Bernie Sanders does better against the Republicans. Yochi Dreazen says
Bernie Sanders won’t beat her, but he’ll be able to hit her on not being
where the passion of the party is. Powers says things like the email
scandal is not going to be something that voters base their decision
on and people
seem to think that she’s a good leader. Krauthammer says the emails alone
won’t sink HRC, but it reinforces the idea that people can’t trust her. Special

-- Coverage of Quinnipiac poll showing HRC trailing Bush, Rubio and Walker
in Colorado, Iowa, and Virginia. Says honesty, trustworthiness, and
favorability are all low in these polls as well. Says this is not the first
poll that has shown HRC with trust issues. Paul Begala joins the show and
says HRC needs to go out and campaign on economic issues. Says her message
is that she wants to boost wages for middle class Americans, and if people
agree with that, they are going to vote for her. Says if you believe
Americans deserve a raise, you will vote for HRC. Says the undecided in the
poll was way too high. Says the key right now is for candidates to get
their messages out. Erin Burnett OutFront

-- Coverage of Quinnipiac poll showing HRC trailing Bush, Rubio and Walker
in Colorado, Iowa, and Virginia. Katherine Mangu-Ward comments and says at
this point the polls essentially function as entertainment. Says polls do
allow for something like an actual comparison and allows people to analyze
the race a little bit. Tom Shiliue says HRC is unlikeable to both Democrats
and Republicans. Shiliue says HRC was never inevitable because people don’t
like her and she talks herself out of people’s good graces. Sam Morril says
HRC and WJC are panicking and she has charisma issues. Kennedy

-- Chris Frates comments on Donald Trump’s financial information. Comparison
between Trump’s international business dealings and HRC’s connection to the
Clinton Foundation’s work with foreign governments. Says both could be
conflicts of interest if either candidate were to become president. Frates
says, like the Clintons, Donald Trump makes big money on speaking
engagements which could be a liability as well. CNN Tonight with Don Lemon

-- Report on HRC’s comments on Sandra Bland case. Host quotes HRC saying, I
hope and expect that there will be a full investigation into this
situation. It is also a tragic reminder of the ongoing systemic issues of
race and justice in America that we must address with urgency, and we have
to do more than talk – we have to take action. Dana Perino joins the show
and says there is this weird thing of HRC and other presidential candidates
wanting to comment on every news event. Says it would have been better if
HRC exercised restraint and judgement. Says HRC indicted police forces
throughout America. Says HRC’s statement is political since police
department is already taking action to deal with the officer. Says the
politicizing does not help the family of Sandra Bland at all. Says the
issue of mental issue is one that HRC, if she wants to lead the country,
could take up instead. The Kelly File

-- Ed Henry comments on the fact that HRC quickly condemned Republicans for
waiting to respond to controversial statements from Donald Trump yet she
has not stood up to Planned Parenthood. Says it’s interesting that PP
employees have donated significant amounts of money to HRC’s campaign.
Notes that other democrats have not commented either. Notes that Harry Reid
has come out and touted the benefits of fetal tissue research. Shows clip
