with russia to take out isis in the region, that's great but i would urge caution with the man. again, he's not our friend, he has not been our friend in the past, and you look at what they're doing in the cybersecurity world, as well, in addition to what they're looking at doing with our election. >> congressman mike mccall, thanks so much for being here. >> thanks for having me. >> we're poll he loing a lot of news. let's get right to it. >> hillary clinton's pneumonia diagnosis raises a big question. >> i hope she gets well and gets back on the trail. >> it's a serious diagnosis. it's clear she tried to hide this and this is going to hurt her. >> you could put half of trump supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. >> it was said with such anger. i think this is the biggest mistake of the political season. >> we will not allow north korea to have a nuclear weapon. >> north korea, like so many other things, is one more
5:01 am
hillary clinton failure. >> the current leader is unpredictable for both the chinese and the rest of us. >> a number of nfl players staged protests during the national anthem to highlight the problems of racial injustice. >> i support our players speaking out. >> there can be change. and we can make this country better. >> this is "new day," with chris cuomo, and alisyn camerota. >> we will be talking more about those protests. welcome to your "new day." up first, hillary clinton has a pneumonia diagnosis and it is rocking the presidential race. the democratic nominee facing growing questions about her health off this video showing her stumbling getting in her van as she left a 9/11 memorial service early. clinton's campaign now canceling a two-day trip to california so she can recover. >> donald trump responding this morning by vowing to release results of a medical exam that he said he had just this week. now, we caught up with the former secretary of state hillary clinton before the deplorables comment that we'll
5:02 am
discuss and before this revelation about her pneumonia. we're going to show you clips of that interview in just a moment. the timing could not be more urgent. 57 days to the election. only 11 days until early voting begins in some states. so you have very high stakes. and that bris us to the major moment of this race. the two candidates. facing off in their first debate two weeks from tonight. we have all the angles covered, lots of new reporting. let's begin with senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny. he's near clinton's hope in chappaqua, new york. jeff? >> good morning, chris. well one of the things hillary clinton is going to be doing as she's resting at home island told is preparing for that debate. she's off the campaign trail for at least the next two days. she canceled her san francisco and las vegas fund raisers. she'll be calling in to one of them i'm told. but she's finally following doctor's orders after being diagnosed with my moan yeah and dehead ration. but it's turned all of these
5:03 am
conspiracy theories about her health into a front and center campaign issue. hillary clinton, off the campaign trail this morning as she recovers from pneumonia. canceling a two-day trip to california. her health thrust into the spotlight, after aides said she became overheated and dehydrated while attending the 9/11 ceremony at ground zero. this video shows clinton leaving early, and as she tries stepping into her van, she wobbles and slumps. secret service agents and aides quickly grab her and hold her up. two law enforcement sources telling cnn she appeared to faint. clinton then taken to her daughter chelsea's apartment three miles away. more than an hour later, clinton emerged, smiling. >> it's a beautiful day. >> reporter: even taking a picture with a young girl before climbing into her motorcade and heading home. her campaign says she was even playing with her two grand kids inside. yet more than five hours later her doctor revealing the 68-year-old was diagnosed with pneumonia two days earlier.
5:04 am
>> can i get some water? >> reporter: after an evaluation for her prolonged cough. >> every time i think about trump i get allergic. >> reporter: despite the diagnosis on friday she continued a gruelling schedule. holding two fund-raisers in new york city. a large national security briefing, and press conference. along with an interview with our own chris cuomo and other media outlets. >> her health incident this morning? >> reporter: donald trump just feet away from his rival at ground zero unusually quiet over her diagnosis. after speculating about her health for months. >> i think she doesn't have the stamina. hillary clinton does not have the stamina. >> i watched hillary, who doesn't have the strength or the stamina. >> reporter: trump addressing clinton's health this morning, and toeing a respectful line. >> something's going on. but i just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail, and we'll -- we'll be seeing her at the debate. >> reporter: telling reporters that he is planning to release records about his own health soon. >> just last week i took a
5:05 am
physical, and i'll be releasing when the numbers come in, hopefully they're going to be good. i think they're going to be good. i feel great. but, when the numbers come in, i'll be releasing very, very specific numbers. >> well, very, very specific numbers. but that is just coming less than two months before the general election. and it is a reminder, chris and alisyn, that american voters know less about donald trump, age 70, and hillary clinton age 68, than they have most recent presidential nominees here. so there's little doubt that most democrats i'm talking to this morning believe the clinton campaign will have to follow suit and release some more full records of her past health history, as well here. but it certainly has shined a new spotlight on this two weeks after that first debate which is two weeks from tonight here in new york. >> okay, jeff, thank you very much. donald trump pouncing on clinton's other stumble this weekend. trump's campaign releasing a new attack ad hitting her on her basket of deplorables comment.

5:06 am
cnn's jason carroll joins us now with more. tell us. >> good morning to you. he's talking about it this morning in an interview this morning donald trump saying hillary clinton's comment was the biggest political mistake of the campaign. he also said clinton made her comments out of what he called anger. and that as president you have to represent all of the people. the trump campaign also has a brand-new attack ad out this morning and running in battleground states such as florida, ohio, pennsylvania, and north carolina. it highlights the moment clinton made her deplorable basket comment, which she made friday night at a fund-raiser in new york. >> speaking to wealthy donors, hillary clinton called tens of millions of americans deplorable. >> you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. the racist, sexist, homophobic, jen phobic, islam phobic, you name it. >> people like you, you and you. deplorable.
5:07 am
you know what's deplorable? hillary clinton visually demonizing hard-working people like you. >> i'm donald trump, and i approve this message. >> clinton also said there should be empathy for a number of trump supporters who feel letdown by the government and the economy. she said the basket of deplorables were trump supporters who have what she called racist and xenophobic leanings. clinton also mentioned a racist website which she says have expanded during trump's candidacy. clinton released a statement clarifying her remarks, saying last night i was grossly generalistic and that's never a good idea. i regret saying half, that was wrong, but let's be clear, what's really deplorable is what donald trump -- is that donald trump hired a major advocate from the so-called alt-right movement to run his campaign, and that david duke and other white supremacists see him as a champion of their values. it should be noted, though, that donald trump also has said he regrets some of the comments
5:08 am
that he has made on the campaign though he wasn't specific about which ones though last month he did admit during a speech that sometimes he says you say what he called the wrong thing. chris? >> i'll take it here. thank you very much, jason. so we are now joined by retired lieutenant general michael flynn. general flynn is a foreign policy adviser to the trump campaign. general, thanks so much for being here. >> hi, ali, how are you doing? >> i'm doing well. are you worried about secretary clinton's health? >> i hope that she's okay. i mean i really do. i just hope that -- you never want to, you know, think of anything different than that. so i mean, i have four sisters. my mother just recently passed away. so i just hope she's okay >> you accept that she has pneumonia, and she was weak from pneumonia? >> whatever they put out. i mean, i just, you know, i just think that -- i mean it's -- you know, it is what it is. i just hope that she's okay. >> is it time for both candidates to release more thorough comprehensive medical records? >> sure. i mean i think that -- you know,
5:09 am
any ways that people that are running for president can be more transparent with the american public so the american public can make a more informed decision, that's just smart. that's a smart thing to do. >> what do you want to see from dpm? because all he has released is a letter that was somewhat laughable from his doctor saying that he's in basically astonishingly good health. >> yeah, i've been around donald trump quite a bit, actually, especial his over the last month or so. and i mean, you know, i've -- i've always felt like i've stayed, you know, in good shape myself. this is a guy that enormous stamina. i watch him move from city to city, event to event. engage robustly with a lot of people, and -- and he's a pretty amazing guy. >> look. i'm astonished by both their stamina. 24/7 the punishing campaign trail. i don't know how you do it at any age, must less 68 and 70 years old. >> i don't know why you'd want
5:10 am
to do it. >> i don't know either. however are you calling for donald trump and hillary clinton to release more medical records? >> i think what we need is we need to make sure that whatever ways that we can become more transparent with everything that we're doing, i mean, everything -- >> how about this taxes -- >> all this stuff. you know, it will all eventually come out to the point where people can make a judgment. >> will it? -- >> honestly, ali, i really think that the bigger issues that are in play for the american public in many of these engagements that i've been a part of, those are lesser issues than -- than the poor economic conditions that we face, the military readiness that we face. i mean so there's so many other big issues. i mean you guys have been talking all morning about isis, and what's going on. i mean the american -- the u.s. government just cut a deal with russia and here we've been talking about you know, everybody's been beating up trump for dealing with russia and here we are, our government is got a deal going with russia to do something about this rise of the radical islamism.
5:11 am
>> yeah i mean look it's about being an educated consumer of your candidate. >> yeah. >> so you're saying that you do believe that more about his taxes will come out? he will release more of his taxes? >> eventually they will. that's something that they're, i know they're dealing with that. this whole you know it's under audit and all that. i mean that's an issue that frankly, i don't think 90% of the people that are actually paying attention to what's going on care about. >> shouldn't they? shouldn't they care if their candidate didn't pay taxes? >> i'm not going to argue with you about the tax issue. to me we have such a poor -- our economy right now is so poor. it is operating at about maybe 1% or 2% growth. that's terrible. our military readiness, modernization, training, is -- is actually at a place now where all of our -- or for the most part, many of our chiefs of our services have said we're not ready. we are not ready. our military is not ready, yet look at the threats that we face around the world. i mean everything. we just saw north korea test potentially another nuclear weapon. we've got china acting like they
5:12 am
own the south china sea. we've got russia in east europe. i mean all these different things that are going on and we also look right here in the homeland, and look at the threats that we face here in the homeland. and the economic threat is still, if you were to ask me what's the greatest threat to our country? it's the economic threats. the threat is tour economy. >> chris cuomo sat down with hillary clinton exclusively. he talked about north korea with her after north korea fired carried out its fifth nuclear test setting off of course alarm bells around the world. let's listen to where secretary clinton stands on the threat posed by kim junk un's regime. >> north korea. >> yeah. >> there is now word that not only was this a test but it could be a sign that they could have a warhead a small one in a shorter time frame than had been reason -- recently expected. we remember with syria the line in the sand that the president drew. when you look at north korea, if
5:13 am
you were president of the united states, what would be your line in the sand that if this supposed mad man in north korea gets a weapon that if he crosses this line, it's no longer just about sanctions? >> oh, i absolutely believe that it has to be made very clear, we will not allow north korea to have a deliverable nuclear weapon. and we will approach this from a number of perspectives. first, we will protect our allies by giving them the most sophisticated missile defense protection that we can. we will make it clear to china, which is not enthusiastic about that, or russia, which also borders north korea, that we have no choice. we are not about to sit and watch this develop and the way that they could help us is by exerting pressure with us that
5:14 am
would adjust the regime's ambitions. and it has to be part of a very tough, comprehensive negotiation. i had conversations in the past with the chinese about north korea. up until relatively recently, i think they were under the impression that they could control their neighbor, and they didn't want to crack down because they saw it as a useful card to play. gets a little crazy, maybe the south koreans will, you know, move toward them a little bit gets a little crazier, maybe they can make some deals with the japanese about some things they want. it was a strategic calculation. it's not that way anymore. the current leader is unpredictable for mott the chinese and the rest of us. the current leader is clearly intent upon ignoring pressure, advice, of any sort coming from anywhere else.
5:15 am
and so we've got to make it clear, missile defense is going in as quickly and broadly as possible. our message, to north koreans and everyone else listening, they will not be permitted to acquire a nuclear weapon that has a deliverable capacity on a ballistic missile. and we've got to start intensifying our discussions with the chinese because they can't possibly want this big problem on their doorstep. >> when they say to you what does that mean they won't be allowed to have one? >> we're not going to go in to all the details. i mean obviously that's not something that i have the right to do or the responsibility at this moment to do. but that will be the policy of my administration. because i don't think we're going to make progress -- adding additional sanctions, and doing it the way that we did that i led with iran did have a big impact because they worked. the chinese have been awfully leaky, you know, the regime
5:16 am
lives off of luxury goods, and the kind of benefits that they then can use to, you know, reward their loyal followers. we've never been able to fully cut that off. and so we will do more on sanctions, because that's part of an overall strategy. but that's not enough. >> general what do you think of her prescription against north korea? >> i mean, first of all, she was the secretary of state for four years and when we started up this pivot to the strategy that we have, which nobody even talks about anymore because it's a complete failure. i mean, you've got to -- i mean, you know, there's a lot of talk about north korea and what's happening out there in the region. we always say china has to do more. i agree. china has to do more. we facing a set of threats around the world, and the lack of respect by many around the world, for us to tell north
5:17 am
korea don't do this, and then they do it. so the lack of respect around the world by many, by many of these rogue regimes, and frankly by some of our allies and friends around the world, is just -- it's stunning. it's to the point where, you know, like i've said before, we've become the worst friends in the world. best enemies, because we constantly talk about what we're going to do and we don't respect the friends and allies that we have that are trying to achieve some of the goals that they have. so i mean, this -- this is a big issue. the whole issue with red lines, don't -- a red line is like saying i'm going to send 500 more guys to iraq. don't state a red line. don't -- don't be predictable. and i think what we, you know, with in the case of north korea, i mean how many times do we have to keep talking to them and talking to them and telling the chinese to do something about it, and they just keep -- they just keep following through with these tests. >> let me ask you about that -- >> very dangerous. very dangerous country absolutely. >> donald trump has said basically that north korea is china's problem.
5:18 am
>> china has the biggest influence over north korea -- >> can we leave it to china to deal with north korea? >> i think we have to deal with china through strength. >> what does that look like? >> that means a more ready military, a stronger economy, and the kinds of things that we're talking about where we have to stop having china do everything for our country economically. i mean that's a big deal. this whole, you know, trans-pacific trade agreement with china. i mean, i just think that there's so many -- there's so many things that we are involved in today that have just been utter failures over frankly the last couple of decades >> you're comfortable letting north korea -- >> the issue of north korea and the potential for north korea to have nuclear weapons you go back and you look at when bill clinton was the president and all these negotiations were had just like what we're doing with iran right now so this administration cut a deal with iran to put them on a pathway to a nuclear weapon. in the bill clinton administration they cut a deal with north korea essentially and it has led to now this problem,
5:19 am
you know, 20 years, 25 years later. so i mean, we've got to stop talking in the way that we talk because it's political talk. and we have to be very practical and we have to be very blunt in some of the conversations that we are having. this diplomatic speak that she's talking about, it actually hasn't worked in decades. we have to become did the world has completely changed ali. the threats that we face have changed. our economic conditions have changed quite a bit. we have to relook at ourselves in this country and decide what it is that we want to be. not what we were. but what we want to be in the next four years, 40 years or 400 years. >> general michael flynn, thanks for having the conversation here with us. >> alisyn transparency is in the news this morning. because of what we just saw with hillary clinton as she got helped into this van. medical history of these two candidates. tax returns of these histories. do you know what you're getting as a voter? we're going to talk to one of

5:23 am
all right. so let's take the opportunity that's given to us in this election. hopefully hillary clinton is going to be okay. but this video of her being carried into a van, the revelation that she's being treated for pneumonia, makes transparency an issue that we should discuss. for both of these candidates. they're two of the oldest to ever want to be the leaders of the free world.
5:24 am
let's discuss clinton support democratic congressman from california, congressman xavier becerra is with us right now. congressman, thank you for being with us. there are two propositions to forward on this. one i think you're going to agree with. one i think you're not. let's go with the one that you'll agree with first. which is isn't it now time to say, that as part of this process, people who want to be the leader of the free world should let us know about their health, not on their terms, but according to an independent review of their actual medical records? don't voters deserve to know what they're getting? >> chris, well, first, thanks for having me. certainly i think voters deserve to know that the person that will become the next president is going to be a healthy president. and that's why i think it was transparent of secretary clinton in her campaign to have a release of the information from her doctors saying that she was right now recovering nicely from pneumonia. and so i agree with you that we do need to make sure that the
5:25 am
public is informed. it would be nice if donald trump gave us even a small bit of information about his medical history. we have this crazy letter that a doctor wrote that clearly was not anything that could be portrayed as proof of what his medical condition is. but it would be nice if at least donald trump did what secretary clinton has already done and released a summary of her health. >> two things. first, he says he's going to do it this week. he just took tests. as soon as the numbers come in, he'll put them out. let's see if he makes good on that. second he ain't hillary clinton. there's a history here at play in terms of the need for the desire for transparency. you know it well, the audience should also. we look back into 1998 you had dvt, deep vain thrombosis. she had a blood clot. there was one after it in 2009, then came that concussion and this mystery around what actually happened why she needed double vision glasses for a blood clot why they weren't
5:26 am
telling us, and it became about transparency and how the clinton campaign is able at this point to tell us what they want, when they want. should that be the standard? >> chris i don't think you've described well what secretary and her campaign have done in trying to provide information. she did provide very early on a summary of her health condition. that was something that was legitimate and we should move forward with that. she's had this episode with pneumon pneumonia. right away they had her doctor disclose -- >> wasn't right away. >> what the condition was. >> wasn't right away congressman and that's what feeds this impression of how the clinton organization -- >> chris it barely happened -- this happened 24 hours ago. we already know it was pneumonia -- >> but how did it come out at first? first it was oh, it was too hot out. and then people put the temperatures back at the campaign they said well you know, and then there was this list of other things that she
5:27 am
has hyperthyroidism. we were with her friday there was no mention of pneumonia -- >> so let me suggest did you -- >> that's all i'm saying. it's about transparency. >> that's exactly the point i want to go to. don't make more of it than what it is. and i -- that she didn't disclose it within the first minutes of her having to leave the 9/11 ceremonies, that would be unreasonable. that she wouldn't disclose her -- at any time that would be unreasonable. but she did disclose within 24 hours that give -- give her and her doctor a chance to make sure that they know what they're doing and saying before they go out there start releasing statements. because that is important. and i think it was crucial, and i -- i thank the secretary and i thank her doctor for willing to disclose that the condition was pneumonia. and so now that doctor has sugd that she rest a bit, and that's what she's doing. she's modified her schedule to make sure that she's back at it soon. but as the doctor said she's recovering nicely.
5:28 am
>> the deplorables. is it fair for the trump campaign to drop the hammer on the clinton campaign for doing what often the clintons accuse the clinton campaign accuses trump of which is overreaching, being hypernegative about a group thaf people that don't deserve it? >> here's the deplorable part about what trump is now going to do with secretary's remarks. they're not going to public the fact that she said she regrets the way she said it. and that's the difference. when hillary clinton puts up all the deplorable things that donald trump has said he's never apologized for any of that -- >> he has said that i regret some things that i've said. he's been vague about it but he has said he regrets some things. >> did he regret that he called people like me who are of mexican heritage, people who are rapists and criminals and can't be u.s. federal court judges. i never heard that. has he ever said that he doesn't believe that a muslim can come to this country and be a great american like the khan family's son who died in uniform for this
5:29 am
country? no he's never said that. has he ever apologized to the khan's themselves directly? no he's never done that. there's a big difference between what donald trump will do which is to abuse of words and what secretary clinton is doing which is just reflecting the words of donald trump. but there's a big difference. if he doesn't want to be associated with all those deplorable people, and there secretary clinton was right. there are a whole bunch of folks who are coming out of the woodwork, now into the so-called mainstream who are not at all mainstream, and they're using donald trump as their cover to do that. he's giving them license to come out and be racist, misogynist, to be homophobes and what we have to do is fight against that. i hope that donald trump will be honest if he's going to put hillary clinton's words up. >> thank you for making the case for the clinton campaign as always. appreciate having you on. alisyn? >> donald trump sounding the alarm among critics calling russian president vladimir putin a strong leader.

5:34 am
if he says great things about me i'm going to say great things about him. i've already said he is very much of a leader. you can say oh, isn't that a terrible thing. the man has very strong control over a country. now it's a very different system and i don't happen to like the system. but certainly in that system he's been a leader. far more than our president has been a leader. >> donald trump continues to say that russian president vladimir putin is a better leader than president obama. but what does vladimir putin think of donald trump? vladimir pozner is a russian generalist and tv personality. he knows vladimir putin and he joins us now live. mr. pozner, thanks so much for being here. what does vladimir putin think of donald trump? >> well, what did vladimir putin say about trump? he said only once, and he said he used the word, the russian word which in russian if it's about the sunshine or about the day, it means a very bright day or a bright sun.
5:35 am
when applied to a human being, it means colorful. that's basically it. and it's the only thing he said about trump. so he's not said a good word or a bad word. just given him that kind of characteristic. flamboyant. basically that's what he said. >> huh. >> so donald trump is misinterpreting, in other words, that vladimir putin has complimented him and calling him strong which is what donald trump is basing his compliments on. you know, not only donald trump there's been a lot in the u.s. press about putin tactically supporting donald trump. there's no proof of that whatsoever. i mean, he's just really said only one word and that's it. and i think putin's very careful about not saying anything about either of the candidates. that will be very counterproductive. i think there's a lot of misunderstanding here. maybe it's deliberate. the fact of the matter is he has not said any positive thing about trump or hillary clinton. >> but what of the other things
5:36 am
that is leading to his feeling that vladimir putin wants donald trump to win, is that our intelligence officials in the u.s. believe that russia was behind the hacking into the dnc computers and thereby trying to sway the election towards donald trump? what's your response to that? >> well according to the information i have the russians are really good hackers. matter of fact they're the best in the world. again according to the information i have. >> from the russian government. >> how that can affect the election -- no, no. i'm saying the russians are very good at this. there are a lot of russians working in silicon valley who are very well known for having that masters of that kind of thing. it's not the russian government, it's the -- their concrete people who know how to do it. now, whether the russian government has used some of these people to hack in to very secret information is quite possible. i think that there's generally a
5:37 am
lot of hacking going on on both sides. everyone's trying to hack everyone else. what i find doubtful is an attempt on the part of the russian government to influence the elections in the united states. i don't see how they can possibly do that. now, if, indeed, they have this information concerning the e-mails that have disappeared, and then in october suddenly they appear, and they come from the russian side, then one might say yes, indeed, then you would have a reason to say that the russians, the russian government, is trying to influence the elections and probably that would influence the election. but if that doesn't happen, then again it's just -- it's just campaign rhetoric, that's all it is. >> hmm. but you know vladimir putin. do you think that he wants donald trump to win the election? >> pardon me? >> you know vladimir putin. so give us some insight. do you think he's pulling for donald trump on some level?
5:38 am
>> um, you know, i don't know him that well. you know, i've met him. i had a one-on-one with him for about an hour. i've met him a few times after that. i can't say i know him in any intimate way. i don't think so. i think putin is very -- he doesn't trust any of the western leaders. i think he feels that the west has it in for him, and has it in for russia. i think his view is that you can't really make any serious deals, it's very difficult to do that. time and again he told me he's been misled by the west, the enlargement of nato is just one example of that. so i think that his feeling is it really doesn't matter who becomes president of the united states insofar as russia is concerned. russia is going to be
5:39 am

during the national anthem is sparking more debate and more players to get into the mix. some showing solidarity, some showing resistance. during the first week of the nfl's regular season some players kneeled like kaepernick. others raised their fists. some teams locked arms, or at least one the seattle seahawks did showing solidarity. a player from the new england patriots held the american flag. we're joined by former green beret and seattle seahawk nate boy here stood by colin kaepernick earlier this month and former professional tennis player and cnn u.s. open tennis analyst james blake. you had your own experience with police use of excessive force -- was judged to be that almost exactly a year ago. so nate let's start with where we've evolved on this. you support colin kaepernick's right to do this. what do you see this evolve into in the league and how do you feel about it? >> well, you know, i mean, just like you said, i support his right more than anything. that is a right that i fought for. and many americans did.
5:51 am
and it's what makes america great. that's what our country's all about. the freedoms to do exactly what he's doing, whether you agree with it or not. i thought personally what seattle did was incredibly powerful. showing that united stand where everybody on the team, including coaches, you know, were side by side, interlocking arms saying look, we're together op this thing. we know that there are injustices that exist and we'd like to see things improve and get better in our country and we want to be a part of that change. so, but at the same time we are standing and recognizing the people that fought for this country the people that serve currently, including both military and, you know, police, fire, all the service members. >> james, some people thought that the seahawks didn't go far enough. that they could have done more with their voice or their protest. i mean you can't win. everybody has complaints on either side. sort of have to take a stand. but given what you went through a year ago where you were misidentified, thrown to the
5:52 am
ground, where are you on these protests? >> well, i agree with nate that first of all, thank you nate for your service. never mentioned before this so thank you. but i do believe that they fought for the freedom of speech pr for everyone to protest in their own way and to peacefully protest which i think is what's great about colin's protest is that he did it peacefully. and i know some feel like it's disrespectful but that's up to them and that's up to them to have their opinion and to voice that opinion. whether you agree or disagree you can have the conversation which i think colin kaepernick did start is this conversation. >> you think this is really that it's working for you to who was a victim of police excessive force you think that what he's doing is getting all of this started in the country? >> i do believe it's a great first step. i also applaud colin for putting his money where his mouth is and donating $1 million to a community, donating his jersey sales profit to this because i don't think this was something that was motivated by dollars and cents, i think it was he saw something that he disagreed with in the country. saw treatment of individuals
5:53 am
like himself and others and they didn't have a voice. same as when i had my incident happen i know there were a lot of people that don't have a voice, don't have the voice that i have to get to the press so i think he wants to speak for them and he's accomplished that. he's got us speaking about it still today weeks after he did this first. and he has a lot of nfl players on his side. >> nate, what does it mean to you that jersey sales for colin kaepernick shot up after this, and what do you think about the ratio of how much we're talking about how he is acting, versus what he's acting about. >> yeah, i think there is definitely such a focus on the gesture itself, more than the mission behind it. and i totally agree with you, james, and thank you for your service on the tennis court. i appreciate watching you. but seriously, no and the jersey sales i think it's amazing what he's doing that he's stepping up, and he's putting his money where his mouth is just like you said. and i just hope that every other player that's doing that is taking a stand, is all about the
5:54 am
action behind it. you know, what are you going to do now? you're putting yourself in that sort of spotlight, and people are going to expect to see action, and the fact that -- when i sat down with colin i had a couple hours just me and him talking and we talked about the fact that there are a lot of good police officers that do it the right way every day. and these are the type of people that want to move forward too and progress and improve on all these issues, especially the way that a lot o lot of these commu are, you know,ible ter acting with the police. there are certain cities that are doing it the right way. i was fortunate to talk to the chief of police of dallas yesterday david brown and i mean that guy if anybody has a right to kind of weigh in on the issue, considering his background, is him. and he wants to be a part of this, too. he would love to sit down with a group of whether it's athletes or and police officers people from the communities, and just sort of have a roundtable discussion, and i mean i would love to be a part of that, too.
5:55 am
obviously james you -- you're invited if you want to come. >> i would love to be a part of that. >> anykay -- >> there you go. >> for -- >> bringing people together and having this conversation, that's always the you know silver lining of any of this stuff that hits the news. speaking of tennis, brought it up you were at the u.s. open last night. how'd that go? >> went great for stan warren ka. i think he's one of the few people in the world that can hit novak djokovic of the court and he was able to do that. gives him a clear sense of what he needs to do. he needs to play absolutely huge tennis. novak faltered a little physically. he didn't have many matches coming into this -- into this final. and his feet really paid the price. he had some blood blisters and they were pretty gnarly. i saw hem in the locker room afterwards. >> nate, james, oh, wow, i didn't know we were going to have these foot b-roll. okay i needed a warning for the viewers for that. gentlemen thank you very much. great to have this conversation
