Hayes: Trump Is ‘Pulling It Off’ Making an Ally of Citizens He Attacked Again and Again

‘I think this is actually the single best day of the general election campaign for Donald Trump’

HAYES: "I agree with Charles. I think this is actually the single best day of the general election campaign for Donald Trump, because as Charles said, this was Hillary Clinton's goal was to otherwise Donald Trump. In the early stages of the general election campaign, she attacked him more or less as a typical Republican, he's going to lower your taxes, he favors the wealthy, bad supreme court choices, women's choice will be taken away. Then she turned at the Democratic Convention and decided to make Donald Trump unacceptable. He couldn't be commander-in-chief. He's unfit to serve as president, trying to make him look dangerous. A threat really to the future of the republic. And what you saw today was Trump, not only standing with a would-be ally or a traditional ally, but an ally whose citizens he basically attacked again and again and again for the better part of the last year, and to pull it off. And to seem calm and rational."
WALLACE: "Does the fact that Trump said they didn't discuss who was going to pay for it and Pena Nieto's spokesman says they did, does that make a difference?"
HAYES: "Of course, it makes a difference. But it doesn't matter nearly as much as the picture you showed and the broader news coming out of there."
