decent chance to have a better life and negotiated a treaty with russia to lower nuclear weapons
400 pieces of legislation have my name on it as a sponsor or co-sponsor when i was a senator for
eight years i worked very hard and was very proud to be re-elected in new york by an even bigger
margin than i had been elected the first time and as president i will take that work that
bipartisan work that finding common ground because you have to be able to get along
with people to get things done in washington thank you secretary and i've proven that i can
and for 30 years i've produced results thank you secretary we're going to move on to syria
both of you have mentioned that she said a lot of things i mean i think we should we could no
mr trump we're going to go on this is about the audience mr trump we're going to move on
the heartbreaking video of a five-year-old syrian boy named omron sitting in an ambulance
after being pulled from the rubble rubble after an airstrike in aleppo focused the world's attention
on the horrors of the war in syria with 136 million views on facebook alone
but there are much worse images coming out of aleppo every day now where in the past few weeks
alone 400 people have been killed at least 100 of them children just days ago the state department
called for a war crimes investigation of the syrian regime of bashar al-assad
and its ally russia for their bombardment of aleppo so this next question comes from social
media through facebook diane from pennsylvania asks if you were president what would you do about
syria and the humanitarian crisis in aleppo isn't it a lot like the holocaust when the u.s
waited too long before we helped secretary clinton we will begin with your two minutes well
the situation in syria is catastrophic and every day that goes by we see the results of the regime
by assad in partnership with the iranians on the ground the russians in the air bombarding places
in particular aleppo where there are hundreds of thousands of people probably about 250
000 still left and there is a determined effort by the russian air force to destroy aleppo in order
to eliminate the last of the syrian rebels who were really holding out against the assad regime
russia hasn't paid any attention to isis they're interested in keeping assad
in power so i when i was secretary of state advocated and i advocate today a no-fly zone
and safe zones we need some leverage with the russians because they're not going to
come to the negotiating table for a diplomatic resolution unless there is some leverage over them
and we have to work more closely with our partners and allies on the ground
but i want to emphasize that what is at stake here is the ambitions and the aggressiveness
of russia russia has decided that it's all in in syria and they've also decided
who they want to see become president of the united states too when it's not me
i've stood up to russia i've taken on putin and others and i would do that as president i think
wherever we can cooperate with russia that's fine and i did as secretary of state that's how we got
a treaty reducing nuclear weapons it's how we got the sanctions on iran that put a lid on the
iranian nuclear program without firing a single shot so i would go to the negotiating table with
more leverage than we have now but i do support the effort to investigate for crimes war crimes
committed by the assyrians and the russians and try to hold them accountable thank you
secretary clinton she was there as secretary of state with the so-called line in the sand
which no i wasn't i was gone i hate to interrupt you but but you were in contact excuse me
and perhaps sadly obama probably still listened to you i don't think he'd be listening
very much anymore obama draws the line in the sand it was laughed at all over the world what happened
now with that being said she talks tough against russia but our nuclear program has fallen way
behind and they've gone wild with their nuclear program not good our government shouldn't have
allowed that to happen russia is new in terms of nuclear we are old we're tired we're exhausted in
terms of nuclear a very bad thing now she talks tough she talks really tough against against uh
putin and against assad she talks in favor of the rebels she doesn't even know who the rebels are
you know every time we take rebels whether it's in iraq or anywhere else we're arming people and you
know what happens they end up being worse than the people look at what she did in libya with gaddafi
gaddafi's out it's a mess and by the way isis has a good chunk of their oil i'm sure you probably
have heard that it was a disaster because the fact is almost everything she's done in foreign policy
has been a mistake and it's been a disaster but if you look at russia just take a look at russia
and look at what they did this week where i agree she wasn't there but possibly
she's consulted we sign a peace treaty everyone's all excited well what russia did with assad and by
the way with iran who you made very powerful with the dumbest deal perhaps i've ever seen
in the history of deal making the iran deal with 150 billion dollars with the 1.7 billion in cash
which is enough cash to fill up this room but look at look at that deal iran now and russia
are now against us so she wants to fight she wants to fight for rebels there's only one problem you
don't even know who the rebels are mr trump you're trump one thing i have to say you're too i don't
like assad at all but assad is killing isis russia is killing isis and iran is killing isis and
those three have now lined up because of our weak foreign policy mr trump let me repeat the question
if you were president what would you do about syria and the humanitarian crisis in aleppo and
i want to remind you what your running mate said he said provocations by russia need to be met with
american strength and that if russia continues to be involved in airstrikes along with the syrian
government forces of assad the united states of america should be prepared to use military
force to strike the military targets of the assad regime okay he and i haven't spoken and i disagree
i disagree with you knock out isis right now syria is fighting isis we have people that want to fight
both at the same time but syria is no longer syria syria is russia and it's iran who she made strong
and kerry and obama made into a very powerful nation and a very rich nation very very quickly
very very quickly i believe we have to get isis we have to worry about isis before we can get
too much more involved she had a chance to do something with syria they had a chance and that
was the line what do you think will happen if aleppo falls i think aleppo is a disaster
humanitarian wise that's what happens i think that it basically has fallen okay it basically
has fought let me tell you something you take a look at mosul the biggest problem i have with
the stupidity of our foreign policy we have mosul they think a lot of the isis leaders are in mosul
so we have announcements coming out of washington and coming out of iraq we will be attacking mosul
in three weeks or four weeks well all of these bad leaders from isis are leaving muscle why can't
they do it quietly why can't they do the attack make it a sneak attack and after the attack is
made inform the american public that we've knocked out the leaders we've had a tremendous success
people leave why do they have to say we're going to be attacking mosul within the next
four to six weeks which is what they're saying how stupid is our country there are sometimes
reasons the military does that psychologically think of any i can't think of anything it might
be to help get civilians out and we have look i have 200 generals and admirals who endorse me
i have 21 congressional medal of honor recipients who endorse me we talk about it all the time they
understand why can't they do something secretively where they go in and they knock out the leadership
how why would these people stay there i've been reading now tell me what your strategy is for
weeks about mosul that it's the harbor of where you know between raqqa and mosul this is where
they think the isis leaders are why would they be say they're not staying there anymore they're gone
because everybody's talking about how iraq which is us with our leadership goes in to fight muscle
now with these 200 admirals and generals they can't believe it all i say is this general george
patton general douglas macarthur are spinning in their grave at the stupidity of what we're doing
in the middle east i'm going to go to secretary clinton secretary clinton you want assad to go
you advocated arming rebels but it looks like that may be too late for aleppo you talk about
diplomatic efforts those have failed ceasefires have failed would you introduce the threat of u.s
military force beyond a no-fly zone against the assad regime to back up diplomacy i would not
use american ground forces in syria i think that would be a very serious mistake i don't think
american troops should be holding territory which is what they would have to do as an occupying
force i don't think that is a smart strategy i do think the use of special forces which we're using
uh the use of uh enablers and trainers in iraq which has had some positive effects
uh are very much in our interests and so i do support what is happening but
what would you do differently than president obama's doing martha i hope that by the time i if
i'm everything i hope by the time i am president that we will have pushed isis out of iraq
i do think that there is a good chance that we can take mosul and you know donald says he knows more
about isis than the generals no he doesn't there are a lot of very important planning going on and
some of it is to signal uh to the sunnis in the area as well as kurdish peshmerga fighters that
we all need to be in this and that takes a lot of planning and preparation i would go after baghdadi
i would specifically target baghdadi because i think our targeting of al qaeda leaders and i
was involved in a lot of those operations highly classified ones made a difference so i think that
could help i would also consider arming the kurds the kurds have been our best partners in syria as
well as iraq and i know there's a lot of concern about that in some circles but i think they should
have the equipment they need so that kurdish and arab fighters on the ground are the principal way
that we take raqqa after pushing isis out of iraq thank you very much we're going to
she went over a minute over and you don't stop her when i go one second over it's like you had
many answers it's really very interesting got a question over here from james carter mr carter
my question is do you believe you can be a devoted president to all the people in the united states
that question begins for mr trump absolutely i mean she calls our people deplorable a large group
and irredeemable i will be a president for all of our people and i'll be a president that will
turn our inner cities around and we'll give strength to people and we'll give economics to
people and we'll bring jobs back because nafta signed by her husband is perhaps the greatest
disaster trade deal in the history of the world not in this country it stripped us
of manufacturing jobs we lost our jobs we lost our money we lost our plans it is a disaster and
now she wants to sign tpp even though she says now she's for she called it the gold standard
and by the way at the last debate she lied because it turned out that she did say the gold standard
and she said she didn't say it they actually said that she lied okay and she lied but she's
lied about a lot of things i would be a president for all of the people african-americans the inner
cities devastating what's happening to our inner cities she's been talking about her for years
as usual she talks about it nothing happens she doesn't get it done same with the latino americans
the hispanic americans the same exact thing they talk they don't get it done you go into the inner
cities and you see it's 45 poverty african americans now 45 poverty in the inner cities
the education is a disaster jobs are essentially non-existent i mean it's you know i and i've been
saying it big speeches where i have 20 and 30 000 people what do you have to lose it can't get
any worse and she's been talking about the inner cities for 25 years nothing's going to ever happen
let me tell you if she's president of the united states nothing's going to happen it's just going
to be talk and all her friends the taxes we were talking about and i would just get it by osmosis
she's not doing any me favors but by doing all the others favors she's doing me favors mr trump
but i will tell you she's all talk it doesn't get done all you have to do is take a look at
her senate run take a look at upstate new york two minutes is up secretary clinton disaster
you have two minutes secretary clinton well 67 percent of the people voted to re-elect
me when i ran for my second term and i was very proud and very humbled by that mr carter
i have tried my entire life to do what i can to support children and families you know right out
of law school i went to work for the children's defense fund and donald talks a lot about
you know the 30 years i've been in public service i'm proud of that you know i started off
