8:00 am
of crazy stuff going on. bill: pythons, all that stuff. that's our tuesday. martha: how do you like it? bill: i think it's all right so far. martha: better than our monday. have a great day, everybody. we will see you back here tomorrow morning. >> feels like a monday both of us because we were off monday. it is tuesday, a brand-new day rings a brand-new reboot of the donald trump campaign after shaking up the ranks and firing his controversial campaign manager. mister trump meeting with evangelical leaders, critical voting block for the presumptive or republican nominee. good morning, welcome to "happening now". heather: on heather downward in for jenna lee. that shakeup you are talking about comes as we learn trump lacks far beyond the clinton
8:01 am
when it comes to fundraising. he started with $1.3 million in the bank, just a fraction of hillary's $42 million warchest. he says he raised about $12 million over the weekend. clinton is already spending that money on attack ads in key battleground states we want as a new poll shows mister trump trailing lori by five points nationally, 47 to 42 percent.national correspondent john roberts life from the marriott marquis in new york where where that meeting with the evangelical group is occurring. john. reporter: donald trump at this moment speaking to about 1000 evangelical leaders who gathered for a conference in new york city. i talked with pastor robert jefferson from dallas who is tort of an informal advisor
8:02 am
to the trump campaign. he says they don't have everybody on board just yet but when they look at the comparison between the policies of donald trump versus those of hillary clinton, he says there are clear choices as to who evangelicals should graduate two. not everybody here is sold on donald trump. one woman i talked to says she is part of the concerned women for america, he believes evangelicals should get behind trump but wants to know more about his positions on religious freedom, planned parenthood, other issues that are near and dear to the heart of evangelical and i went her after yesterday, didn't talk get the majority of evangelicals? she said there are evangelicals but men are evangelicals. here she has. >> if you drill down to people who really attend church once a week to our faithful evangelicals he didn't even do as well. he's not doing as well among women in general. i think we can bring along and educate him on the issues he's not clear on yet and i'm looking forward to do that and have an opportunity to tomorrow . reporter: she is part of that
8:03 am
meeting today. she will take away whatever she does from donald trump. we hope to speak with her later to see if he has one of her over. one area and you pointed this out a moment ago where donald trump isn't doing so well is in the fundraising area. there is a huge disparity between the amount of cash he has on hand versus the amount of cash hillary clinton has on hand. he had a good fundraising swing last week in arizona, collecting between 12 and $13 million but a lot of that money is going to go to the rnc and other campaigns, not just the donald trump campaign and at least one super pack associated with donald trump is having trouble raising money. as we go forward into the campaign reboot, donald trump suggests things are going to remain fairly small. they need to do some hiring, get some people into positions thathaven't been filled in over months but he's not going to go anywhere near the size campaign that hillary clinton has. here's what he said this morning on fox and friends we want to keep it lean. i'm not looking to spend all this money. i hearpeople spend $1 billion . politicians are the only ones who can spend $1 billion. hillary clinton will spend $1
8:04 am
billion of wall street money and money from the middle east . reporter: there is talk that donald trump is prepared to put more of his own money into fundraising, matching a 48 hour drive with a maximum of $2 million but going forward he may need to put more money than that if you can't make inroads in fundraising, trying to match what hillary clinton is doing. tomorrow, big speech donald trump will be gettingin new york city. it is the hillary clinton speech he meant to give a week ago monday which got postponed because of that horrific massacre in orlando so we will hear all about hillary clinton tomorrow from donald trump . jon: john roberts innew york city, thank you john. more new numbers in the race for the white house now with holes in key battleground states showing hillary clinton with a solid lead over donald trump in florida . they are in a statistical dead heat in pennsylvania, 42 to 41 and a property high in ohio.
8:05 am
joining us to talk about some of these numbers, kareem jean-pierre, former deputy campaign manager for governor martin o'malley plus hogan give lee, republican strategist and former huckabee campaign senior communications director. hogan, it wasn't that long ago that donald trump was leading hillary clinton, what happened? >> seven weeks of stagnation on the trump campaign. it's been seven weeks to the day that trump secure the nomination. he had the time and the energy and he just didn't have a plan to go into these swing states systematically and surgically destroy hillary clinton at every turn. there are two finite commodities in campaign, that's money and time. he squandered both so far and he's going to make a change he's going to have to go after her directly in these swing states. the good news is he is entire with a frequent in states the republicans don't have any business fighting in. we lost those dates consistently the last two elections and donald trump has the potential to make some of those blue states
8:06 am
read but he's got to start now and start aggressively and hillary clinton has a massive jump on him to the tune of $20 million in advertising. trump will have to match that soon. jon: so she is up by five percentage points nationally as she is in this latest poll, are you feeling confident >> john, at this point in june , polls are not very reliable. were going to see them go up and down as we had closer to november so i think what voices really matter, what is going to matter is the ground game. who's going to get that 270 electoral colleges? that's where the game is going to be on and that's what we need to be looking at. $1.3 million in his bank account right now is, if that's the number we should really be concerned about, he should be concerned about because clearly donors are feeling like they don't want
8:07 am
to be with somebody who's this erratic, somebody who's been espousing racist rhetoric and that's the problem donald trump is having. you can't even win a run in a dc mayoral race with that amount of money so that is a concern there and hillary clinton is leading him . she's been building in battleground states from the last few months and you have to have an infrastructure in the states and also you have to have, be up on the air to show contrast with the candidate and he's not doing any of that so i'm not confident he can win ohio and pennsylvania if he can't run a real, national campaign. jon: he said so often during the primary, hogan, that he was self funding. he was paying for his own campaign, suggesting that was going to put it out of the reach of lobbyists and others. now that we are in the general election, is that attitude prevailing among donors? donald trump is paying for his own campaign, he doesn't need my money? >> i don't think so. it's been reported now that trump is uncomfortable with asking for money. chairman previous made the comment that when donald trump advised that when
8:08 am
you're meeting with these people, make sure you ask them for money. it's a different game than the general. early on he was able to win these primaries, considerably winning these state by large numbers because of his celebrity, his status, the media coverage he was able to get. he didn't have to build out a national campaign as karim alluded to. he's got to do that now. he's got to do that with money. he can fund his own campaign, he either needs to fund it now or have several more nights of this multimillion dollar fundraiser we suggested because hillary clinton is not going to take prisoners in this campaign. she's going to cut, slash and burn her way to the presidency if she has to. he's going to do it with money from foreign entities, money from wall street donors and this campaign is not about right or left, about liberal or conservative or
8:09 am
republican or democrat. it's about the establishment of corruption versus the will of the people and right now the people feel like they had been punched in the got my wall street. trump has got to make that point over and over again. jon: and in another recent poll, a cnn orc poll, donald trump was leading hillary on two key points, the economy and terrorism. normally people vote the economy, they vote their pocketbook and terrorism also is becoming more and more of the front and center issue in the minds of many americans so if he's leading on those two critical issues, it bodes well for his campaign, doesn't it? >> of course it bodes well for his campaign. those are two issues that voters across the board care about. were going to see hillary clinton maker each on the economy and she will probably surgically attack trump and show that he is just not ready to lead the country on the economy or terrorism or any other facet that is important to us so i think that's going to be important to see and i believe that's
8:10 am
going to change once she gets out there and also lays out why should voters vote for her? what isyour plan as well? i think we will see that in the coming weeks. jon: we will be watching and watching hillary clinton when she makes that big address . kareem jean-pierre, hogan gidley, thank you. heather: new information on efforts to curb gun sales in the wake of the orlando terror attack as the u.s. senate rejected four separate measures to make it tougher for suspected terrorists to buy weapons and now thiscould turn into a major campaign issue. on the mac away is live in washington and he is following this. i got . reporter: last night result was a almost foreordained conclusion, it surprised no one and it was largely the result of three factors. congress almost knee-jerk reaction to do something legislative we in the aftermath of these mass shootings. ideological divide which separates the two parties and
8:11 am
lastly, the high hurdle, the 60 vote threshold required to end debate. all conspired to do these four amendments and they did. the grassley amendment failed to move forward, 53 to 47 as in the murphy amendment, the cornell amendment and the feinstein amendment, 47 to 53 so today we saw the inevitable finger-pointing from both sides. majority leader mitch mcconnell taking to the floor to correctly predict the democratic line of attack and preemptively try to send it off. >> we are going to put forward a serious proposal designed to prevent known or suspected terrorists from being able to buy guns and democrats voted against it . now does that mean democrats have decided to sell weapons to isis? of course not. reporter: moments later, democratic minority leader harry reid took to the floor to do precisely what mcconnell predicted he would. >> republicans won't even
8:12 am
agree to keep guns away from terrorists . congress has been so thoroughly indoctrinated it's now the legislative lead of the decision there remains one hope of a bipartisan amendment, the one proposed by maine republican susan collins. it would band on sales to two subsets of the terrorism watchlist, those people on the no-fly list and also those people on the selectee list which requires people to go a second screening before boarding a flight. collins believes it has bipartisan appeal because people on these two lists have the right to an appeal and if they win that appeal they have the right to be recovered and said their attorney fees . the collins bill has not been introduced yet, she is still in the process of drafting it. back to you.heather: thanks . jon: executives at boeing confirm that company has signed an agreement with iran hair laying the groundwork for the biggest business deal
8:13 am
between iran and the us in decades but boeing might need more approval before going forward. kristin fisher live in washington with more on this agreement or it. reporter: if this deal goes through it would be iran's first major business deal with an american company in nearly 40 years. $45 billion worth of owing airplanes according to one iranian official, theexact amount has not been made public. according to boeing , they say that it has reached an agreement with iran air from the us government following a determination that iran has met its obligation under the new core agreement last summer. they say that quote, any and all contract with the rands airlines will be contingent on us government approval so this is not a done deal. it still needs to be approved by the us government and that approval will need to come from the treasury department. there is at least one more option for boeing and that is
8:14 am
that it might be for boeing to use a currency other than us dollars and sales for an overseas subsidiary effectively bypassing us law but that option is not sitting well with many republicans on capitol hill. the chairman of the financial services committee says quote, any non-us institution that may be tempted to finance the ayatollah should ask whether it is in their long-term interest to profit from doing business with the world's foremost state sponsor of terrorism rated iran already has about 64 boeing airplane purchased before the islamic resolution. this deal would bring it about 100 new ones. it would be by far the biggest sale of us planes to iran since the easing of economics that sanctions last year. if this deal goes through, that first new boeing airplane that arrives in iran in just four months. john? jon: a lot of controversy. kristin fisher, thank you. heather: potentially 100 new airplanes? and they could do it with another currency.

8:19 am
absolutely. jerry stiles is here to lay out this argument. tell me about why you think he could win and why he might not i think the first thing you have to remember is this that this has been an entire year. and that we thought would not happen then here we are. you have to throw conventional wisdom this year. the second thing, the reality is that for months is a long time to go. it looks for donald trump now, three weeks ago the republicans were excited because he had caught up with hillary clinton in the polls so i think one of the basic facts is that there's a settling out process your that's underway. after the conventions in december it will be a better time to figure out what the lay of the land is. in the meantime, the question is can you put together an electoral college math that gets trump will 270. it's not easy but it's possible. heather: you have some theories about how he could go about that. >> the two key states to keep an eye on, this is not new in presidential politics but it's more to this year than ever, ohio and florida.
8:20 am
probably has to win ohio to put together a map that works for him and it's a lot easier if he wins florida as well. there's a new pullout today that shows him down eight points to hillary clinton in florida, that's a bad sign because the map is a lot easy to put together if you have florida in the trump column and ohio, then you have to put together a combination of states that mitt romney lost but that donald trump could swing like ohio and new hampshire but he ultimately has to breakthrough in at least one of those big rust belt states, pennsylvania, wisconsin or michigan. that's a tough call but he's an unconventional candidate with unconventional appeals. heather: let me ask you about a big change in the campaign. he fired his campaign manager after having three bad weeks and the drop in the polls. how do you see that affecting campaign? >> i think one of the things republicans in washington have been worried about are the controversies that have been generated over the last two or three weeks. as much or even more what they've been worried about is
8:21 am
the times that that's a reflection that it's not really a campaign infrastructure there. there's not an adequate campaign to run a general election. there's not a fundraising apparatus, there's not a staff on the ground in the states. heather: to your point, we've seen this. he has about 70 people on staff, hillary clinton has about 700. how do they wrap that up? >> that's the question and that's why the signal yesterday was not just that corey lewandowski is going but that there's going to be a different kind of approach to building the campaign but your point is right. there's not a lot of time to do that. there's not a lot of time to build a campaign infrastructure. if you're republican looking at this that's got to be the top concern and the top priority. heather: thanks a lot for your expertise, always great to see you. john? jon: new fears about wildfires raging out west in triple degree heat. why the fast-moving flames have cruise so concerned. we all live with more on

jon: right now, new concerns of two wildfires northeast of los angeles could merge into one giant inferno. the fast-moving flames already forcing hundreds of people out of their homes and triple digit temperatures are complicating efforts to contain fires across the west. william lodge and s live from california with more. reporter: john, remember yesterday when we said the conditions were so bad that temperatures, humidity and the wind that if there were a spark, a cigarette, it came into contact with a dry brush you have 100 percent probability of ignition? that's exactly what happened when the fire went over an embankment into the town of cesar, igniting a huge fire in the national forest. luckily is fairly high in the mountains and not next to a large neighborhood.however, that was not a case about an hour later, a second fire about a mile away exploded into heavy brush, creating massive walls of flames, huge plumes of smoke you could see for miles. la fire mounted a huge initial attack on that fire. 20 aircraft and overnight using nightvision and
8:28 am
infrared to target their drops of water and retardant to protect homes. some 3200 acres burned in just 18 hours. the coverage evacuated. >> finally it was the smoke that did it. my eyes were watering, i was having trouble breathing and i said i've got to leave before they even tell me but i need to leave before i can't breathe very well. reporter: down near the border, the potential fire is 70 miles east of san diego, growing 7500 acres. more evacuated down there and that's pretty much a desert environment ratherthan coastal . three firefighters were treated for heat exhaustion, 1000 are without power. here's the sherpa fire. in santa barbara, this is about a week old. that huge initial response is now paying off. we are 70 percent contained here. they will knock those down with aircraft and hand crews
8:29 am
but this other california john, 6000 people without power. you have those two fires in east of la which are zero percent contained . there's already extreme fire later this morning which means you will see a lot of today as well but here's the good news. number one, weather is improving. pictures coming down but believe this, not on home has been lost. the sherpa fire, the paternal fire and the two fires going on right now in east la. back to you. jon: that's amazing. thank you. heather: airlines taking in billions of dollars in fees from passengers already this year. why more extra charges could be on the way and hillary clinton getting ray to take the stage in columbus ohio. she's expected to go after donald trump and his position on the economy. >> we'll come to the zoo! only safelite can fix your windshield anywhere in the us. with our exclusive mobileglassshops. and our one of a kind trueseal technology, for a reliable bond.
8:30 am
8:33 am
heather: welcome back. a quick look at what's still to come in this hour of "happening now". airlines getting a windfall from baggage and cancellation fees. the reason that one group wants to increase those fees even more. triple digit temperatures out west making firefighters jobs a whole lot harder. maria molina tells us if it will break anytime soon. plus, the family of the two-year-old boy killed by an alligator at a disney resort preparing to lay there some to rest later today. john. jon: hillary clinton to deliver a speech on the economy in columbus ohio and she is not expected to go easy on donald trump. mrs. clinton plans to argue
8:34 am
that trumps economic policies would hurt working americans and lead to a financial meltdown. this comes amid news that the trump campaign is trailing clinton in fundraising dollars and just a day before a state department it official is scheduled to be questioned about clinton's email practices. let's bring in richard tower, democratic strategist and radio talkshow host and gianna caldwell, a republican strategist at caldwell strategic consulting and former director of african-american outreach for the republican party. welcome to both of you. richard, we mentioned in the last interview segment i did when most people when asked about the ability of each candidate on the economy, donald trump comes out on top. how does hillary clinton try to counter what is one of the key issues of any
8:35 am
presidential campaign? >> there's no question that the americans are hurting and this would be a key issue for this race. like the president would say, be it it's the economy, stupid. what hillary is going to have to do, this is her first economic issue and what she's going have to do is outline how she plans to turn the economy around and continuing the 72 months of job growth we had. part of her plan would ask for the same type of infrastructure investments we saw during the great depression in the 40s area that same percentage of infrastructure spending and that's important. what we know is for every billiondollars spent in building bridges, building roads, rebuilding schools and building hospitals in the country, you put almost 3000 jobs . not to mention the power of small businesses, it would get the economy going and rebuild confidence.
8:36 am
jon: didn't barack obama try that already with shell jobs? >> the problem with the stimulus passage is that the stimulus package was focused on middle-class tax cuts and what happens is in economics, tax cuts cost the government more than actually spending and investing in small businesses and have them build bridges and roads and highways and hospitals and schools. jon: let's get back to the topic of the economy. john oh, does america essentially want another term from barack obama? >> know they don't and when richard says there's this huge month of consecutive job growth, we've got to look at what those numbers really mean because the department of labor issued a report last month saying there were only 25,000 jobs added to the economy. that's not the kind of job growth i deem appropriate. plus the jobs added to the economy have been low-wage jobs so what you want to look at isburger king and mcdonald's if you have a college degree, if that's what you want to do that's appropriate. but americans , that's not what they want to do for college students or high school students so that theory that the american people would want a third term of president obama's job growth is absolutely not true.
8:37 am
jon: would americans pull the lever or punch the card, richard? are they going to see hillary clinton as an extension of barack obama's economic policies? >> were going to see a stark difference in that barack obama hasn't been able to get lots done because of gridlock in congress. hillary clinton will hopefully take back the senate and move some huge bills that are usually bipartisan like the transportation bill and bridges. let me make one other point here, john. where gianna i think is correct, last month, labor numbers work that good but overall if you look at the past 10 years of this presidency, we created over 60 million jobs. not to mention that fact that mark sandy, the former economic advisor to mitt romney indicated that donald trump's economic plan would put our economy back into a recession that we've never seen before. jon: it bears repeating or pointing out gianna that barack obama had a democratic house and senate the first two years. >> that was exactly what i was going to say.
8:38 am
jon: the voters responded to that by getting the house to the senate, the house to the republicans and eventually the senate. >> that's what i think would continue to happen because the american people want to see some bipartisanship and want to see a party that has created jobs. when we talked about donald trump, his resume, he's created thousands of jobs. he's the only candidate that has created thousands of jobs but hillary in her speech which is going to be essentially he wants to give tax credits to the wealthy, he wants to send our economy into a tailspin. essentially everything that that democratic candidate says when the running for president so i don't understand it he's getting this rhetoric out of a how to run against republicans for dummies handbook. it's absolutely ridiculous. >> she's getting this from mark sandy, mitt romney's former economic advisor.
8:39 am
[overlapping conversation] >> we're not talking about romney, were talking about mark sandy, one of the most respected economist in the country that indicated that donald trump's economic plans will plunge our country into a depression. [overlapping conversation] they have not been responsive because they know it's true. >> there are other things. get 1000 economists ... >> name on that as accomplished as mark sandy >> donald trump's plan isn't as golden as it should be what he's getting ready to reboot his campaign. he's bringing in advisors that can go beyond the rhetoric . >> this is about fundamentally restarting our economy and how you do that, every economist should tell you about making an investment in the american people and putting them back to work rebuilding america. >> that's exactly what hillary would outline in the next few minutes. our roads are falling apart, our airports are falling apart. [overlapping conversation]
8:40 am
you've got to rebuild those airports. that is exactly what donald trump has been saying from the beginning of his campaign. he's been saying this from the beginning of his campaign. where is it hillary clinton is going to save this? jon: i love to continue the conversation but were going to leave it right there. thank you both. heather: we will continue that conversation later. a serious story to bring you now. two years after his wife and executive, convicted of murdering her, he insisted she killed herself. why prosecutors in the jury believe something else. plus, airlines making more money than ever amid record baggage and booking fees, you all know what i'm talking about. why one group wants you to pay even more fees. we will explain. >> ...clear for take off.
8:43 am
8:44 am
been talking about money concerns at the trump campaign. he has a little over $1 million on hand right now. compared to something like 42 million in the clinton campaign coffers. now, the trump campaign is saying it is not worried. it says to date, the campaign's fundraising has been incredible and we continue to see a tremendous outpouring of support for mister trump and money to the republican party. a positive response to our fundraising efforts so far is a further indication the country does not want yet another corrupt politician like crooked hillary. mister trump adds, if need be there could be unlimited cash on hand as i would put up my own money as i've already done the primaries, spending over $50 million. our campaign is leaner and more efficient like our government should be. heather: us airlines taking in millions of dollars in fees from passengers already this year. we all know how that feels. there are new numbers out that show airlines have earned more than $1.7 billion
8:45 am
in baggage and cancellation fees since the start of 2016 alone. lauren simonetti is here and she explains why one group wants to increase passenger fees even more to upgrade the airports across the country. i have thought that was the business of the government and all those municipal bonds. >> it is. let's talk about the fees first. you have 13 us carriers from american and delta to jetblue and hawaiian air bringing in $175 million in baggage fees alone in the first quarter. since january, february and march. it's after the winter holidays, it's ahead of spring break and the busy summer travel season and the airlines brought in that much money for checked bags and cancellation fees, $745 million in fees to cancel or change that ticket reservation and in all we're talking one point seven $5
8:46 am
billion in one quarter and since 2008 when all of these fees started, about $46 billion in added revenue for the airlines from checking your bag and changing your ticket. and there could be more fees coming. this is what you were talking about. the american association of airport executives are for a thing called passenger facility charge . it finances airport improvement, things like new terminals, new runways and the like but airlines are pushing back against raising this particular fee. it's now capped at $4.50 a passenger. it could help accommodate the record number of flyers clearing security checkpoints. psc has not been adjusted in 16 years. it's optional, it's up to the airports to charge it. the airlines saying this is ironic, they are saying it discourages travel as if their fees don't but maybe they don't because we are all traveling anyway and paying all those fees . heather: i learned of the new fee when i was flying back to california and if you wanted
8:47 am
to board early, you could pay about 20 or $30. thanks a lot lauren simonetti, thank you . jon: wait till they charge for your seatbelt. new information on a murder trial we've been following . an executive from virginia just convicted of killing his wife two years ago. the jury found rowley oh custody of guilty of first-degree murder. they are back in court today considered to consider a sentence which could range from 20 years to life in prison. castillo claimed his estranged wife michelle committed suicide by hanging. prosecutors insisting he smothered her with a pillow then stage the scene to make it look like a suicide. michelle castillo had obtained a protective order against her husband,saying he was abusive . heather: a final farewell later today for that beautiful little boy killed in the alligator at disney world. lane graves's familypreparing for a private service today after a public vigil was held last night . plus, sizzling summer temperatures as the heat wave
