>> this year's presidential election has been a battle between the establishment and the outsiders. another war was waged. mitt romney made his feelings known about front-runner donald trump in no uncertain terms. trump answered in kind. >> here is what i know. donald trump is a phoney, a fraud. his promises are as worthless as a degree from trump university. >> mitt is a failed candidate. failed horribly david shuster is here with more. >> this is the first time in political history that a party's

most recent presidential nominee has delivered a speech condemning the presidential front runner. >> donald trump is a phoney, a fraud. his promises are as worthless as a degree from front university. >> in utah, mitt romney was unrelenting. the 2012 g.o.p. presidential nominee attacked trump as immoral and cruel, and said america would be led into the abyss. >> his domestic policies would lead the recession. foreign policies would make america less safe. he has neither the temperament or the judgment to be president. and his personal qualities means that america is a shining city on a hill. >> romney listed the quality one by one. >> the bullying, the greed, the showing off, the misogamy, the

third-great theatrics, at a rally in main, trump fired back. >> midis a failed candidate, he failed. >> reporter: trump noted it was mitt romney's loss four years ago giving president obama a second term. he said romney had everything going for him during the 2012 protection. election. >> including his endorsement. >> i backed mitt romney, i backed him. you can see how loyal he is. i could have said mitt drop to your knees, he would have dropped to his niece. >> after that imagery, trump delivered this. >> mitt is, indeed, a choke artist. he choked and he chobed like i have -- choked like i have never seen anyone chunk. >> insults and taunts come at a critical juncture. it sparked panic among world,

who feared it could cost g.o.p. congress, and may be unstoppable. >> trump's rivals agree. >> we choose donald trump as the nominee. he would have carried out an ellab rate con job. >> to block trump, mitt romney and others are urging g.o.p. voters to support marco rubio in florida. john kasich in ohio, and ted cruz in whatever state he has the best chance to beat donald trump. denying, and that a winner take all could conceivably keep him from reaching the delegation and spark a brokered convention. >> if the other candidates find common ground, we can nominate a person representing the values and policies of conservatism. >> the biggest problem is mitt romney relates the establishment that trump bit his campaign

against. some say it's just as likely that romney's attack may help trump. >> when i watch a guy like mitt romney, who is a lightweight. when you - no, no, think of it new jersey governor chris christie, who endorsed trump says he doesn't always gree with his -- agree with his politics or rhetorics, but they need to think about the bigger picture. >> as a republican, i don't want to see hillary clinton become the next president of the united states. i think donald trump is the best placed to do that plans to derail donald trump went weekend the republican field. republican super packs bought tens of millions of television ad time to portray donald trump as dangerous.

>> steve is a former advisor to rand paul's campaign. >> on the surface this looks like a mess and a war. what is your fatake. >> we have conflict within the party. that is not new. i was part of the reagan campaign, it was tested and fought. a lot thought it contributed to gerald ford's loss in the fall. i have concern that the acrimony could spillover. >> let me try you one more time here. i mean i saw that campaign too. i don't remember the former nominee calling the front runner a conman, and worse. it seems to me that this has reached all levels and exceeded all limits that the republican

party ever had in its history. is that too - is that too much? >> let me correct you, gary goldmorgan said regan was supported by the nuts that supported him. people forget this stuff. >> in your opinion, it's not a mess. >> it's not a mess, but it's a hotly contested contest. it's getting very bitter, and i am concerned about the type of debate i'm having, i would like to see a debate on issues, not over hand size, sweating and make-up. i don't think it serves anyone well, doesn't serve the party well or the country. i am concerned that we'll have deep divisions, and it will be hard to bring the party back together. especially since we have a number of congress men and elected officials coming out to say they are not going to

support a candidate if they are a nominee. >> and you have some that say they will. you have a former governor of arizona is for donald trump, amongst others. i center a difficult time figuring out how this will end. >> i don't know. anyone it that tells you they know, dismiss them as an idiot. no one knows, if you ask 90% of pundits that donald trump would be the front runner, they'd tell you you were crazy and laugh them out of the room. there are several scenarios. one is that donald trump gets a vote, but not a majority of the delegates. right now he earnt 46% of the delegates. if that trend continues, we'll go to a contested convention. one of two things will happen. donald trump gets the majority

of the delegates, game over. second, someone like cruz emerges as a primary challenger, perhaps rubio, and overtakes him at the end. or third, none of the above, and you have a contested convention. i'll remind people it used to be the way you go to multiple ballots. there were three. in 1940, five. so right now, i would say it's about 70% chance donald trump wraps up the nomination, but i'll give it a full 30%, that we'll have a very hotly contested convention, and everyone in the media, i think, will have a lot to talk about. >> media, everywhere else too. give me your best spin on this. i mean, you are... >> my best... >> go ahead. >> the best spin will be that the - the greatest unifier for the republican party is the prospect of hillary clinton, or bernie sanders. and i remember being at the '76

convention, and being so angry that ronald reagan was denied the nomination. one of the things that people forget is ronald reagan got more votes in the primaries than gerald four. but the delegates voted for gerald ford. i was so mad i said i would not work for gerald four. a week after seeing a couple of jimmy carter's speeches, i was in the phone bank and worked them until november. i'm hopeful that the pes pect will unify the party. that's not a certainty, i'm troubled by it. so i want to be upfront about it. >> good to talk to you. thank you. >> thank you for having me. >> the four remaining republican presidential candidates are in detroit for a debate at the fox theatre. the first debate since the win, and the departure of ben carson. diane eastabrook is in detroit.

>> hi. well, expect a spirited exchange inside the fox theatre, and there has been a spirited exchange outside the theatre. about 300 protesters have been out here for the past hour. demonstrating against donald trump. there are some people here that are in favour of john kasich, some demonstrating against the city of detroit for the way it's handling schools and against michigan governor rick schneider over the way the water crisis has been dealt with. they have primaries coming up, and it's crucial to win the states. rubio has only one minnesota. it's - so a lot of the political strategists that i talked to hope that the focus will be less on name calling that we have

seen in some of the previous debates, and more focus on issues like immigration, and the economy. the debate will get under way in less than an hour or so. expect to see some fireworks inside of the fox theatre, in little less than an hour. >> cold outside, hot inside. all right. michigan has some real changes. what issues do we expect the candidates to address regarding the state of michigan. >> some of the issues we expect them to take on are issues like trade and jobs. this is a blue state, a manufacturing state losing a couple of hundred thousands manufacturing jobs. some have come back. >> donald trump has been critical of ford. they doubled production facilities down in mexico. he has taken the company to task for that.

yesterday we were at a rally north of here with marco rubio, and he said jobs are important. and it is important for the u.s. to get some of those manufacturing jobs back. the candidates, he said. should not pray on voters fears. here is what he had to say. >> the jobs that need to be sustained are working class. some are done by machines or sent to other countries, they don't pay enough. we have to naj that reality, but -- knowledge na -- that reacty, but not take advantage. >> reporter: what is also interesting is this is the first encounter between fox news anchor kelly, and donald trump, last time they met things turned hostile. things may be a little calmer between the two thank you very much. the democrats have three contests on saturday. one of them is in nebraska, where bernie sanders appeared

today. >> when millions of people stand up and fight back and demand that washington starts representing working families rather than billionaires, yes, we will have real change in this country. >> bernie sanders says people need to think outside the box to create real change. former president bill clinton is in louisiana ahead of the primary there. he is appearing at a campaign rally for his wife in baton rouge. and said hillary clinton is the best candidate to raise wages for workers in that state. jeanie is professor of campaign manager and joins me in the studio. welcome. >> how much influence does bill clinton have in this campaign for hillary. >> he has a lot of influence, he's a primary advisors, and they tried to keep him out of the spotlight to a certain

extent earlier in the campaign. then he has been in the lime light. >> how much does he help, how much does he hurt. >> i think bill clinton, with the political mind he has, has an enormous aspect, when you talk about primaries and caucuses. the bigger question will be how he plays, when we get to the general election, if she is the nominee. as popular as he is, and he is popular, he can be divisive when you get to the general election. >> we know donald trump wasted no time going after him, making an issue of his sexual history. >> absolutely, tied him to bill cosby, and that was the point the clinton campaign cyst engage ed. they were -- disengage. if this is a clinton-trump general election, it will get very, very ugly, and that will be one of the things...

>> making me think he's more of an ability. >> the problem is she cannot run away from him. she has to figure out how to manage him. he was a liability and did essentially in south carolina almost end her campaign. he can be a liability. she can't run away, she have has to embrace and explain her role in that affair, if you will. >> just the news this week that a former state department employee has been in this investigation about the emails. how important is this in the campaign for her. >> this is important. if anybody in the campaign or anyone close to hillary clinton is indicted or hillary clinton herself, that could be the catastrophic end of the campaign. so this is something that they have been saying that they want the information to get out.

yet you hear about an indictment. you are hard pressed to imagine they'd go that far unless they felt there was evidence that would connect people... >> they wouldn't grant someone immunity unless they were serious about pursuing an indictment. this is someone who set up the private server in her home, one that works for the clinton campaign, that took the fifth amendment, because he said he did not want to speak without immunity, he has been granted that, what does he know. how much will he say, and you talk to people that work in the area, you are hard pressed to imagine that there's not a paper trail or people that can claim that she - the secretary of state, has - had either asked for or understood that secured information was going on that private server. that is a huge problem for her. >> donald trump brought that up. >> he brought d up and said he'll continue to bring it up. if he's the nominee, if someones

is the nominee, she'll be hit hard unless the government pursues if, and it end up they don't take it as far up the chain as hillary clinton. >> good to see you. thank you very much. >> vice president joe biden wrote an op-ed in the "new york times", calling on senate republicans to back down not to consider supreme court nominee put forward by president obama. >> a cnn poll finds 58% of americans would like to see president obama fill the vacancy left by the death of scoelia. 41% say it should be left to the winner of the election. next - north korea launches six missiles into the sea resulting in further sanctions. and a follow up with canadian addicts who get their

night improve rehearsals for a pre-emptive strike. north korea came out against the reports, saying it reserves the right to attack south korean seats of government. so we could expect a round of heightened tensions. this is the first reaction to the security council passage. it may well be that there is more to follow in the days and weeks to come. >> that is tyson fawcett reporting. the -- that is harry fawcett reporting. the white house says president obama signed an executive order to prolong orders targetting senior russian officials and businessmen, including state companies, blocking them from holding assets in the u.s. >> aid is running out for refugees at the greece macedonian border. macedonia closed the boarder. many clashed with guards that fired tear gas and rubber

to come in the expectations of reaching the u.k. there's questions about whether throwing money at the problem is the real solution. >> it's not only a money issue with the refugees who are trying here north of france to cross to the u.k. it's not a money issue, it's a visa issue, a global picture of what europe wants to do with the people coming from the countries, are they real refugees, do they have a right to be here in europe, or not. >> that question can only be effectively addressed at the european union summit on migration and refugees, being convened next week in south africa, olympic athlete oscar pistorius lost an appeal to have his murder conviction overturned. he shot and killed his girlfriend reeva steenkamp on
