cleveland. tonight, trish regan's special coverage at 9:00 p.m. eastern, the theme tonight, that program, leadership and excellence and as always fox business will deliver for you. we're coming up right on time now. coming up to the five which is next. hello, everyone. i'm dana perino with kimberly and it's 5:00 in cleveland and this is "the five." donald trump officially became the republican nominee last night just s&p months after entering the 2016 presidential race and today he made an appearance with vice presidential nominee mike pence. >> we're going to win ohio. right? come here, mike. we're going to win ohio. we're going to win it all. the last time i was accused of speaking a little long and this time i'm going to speak a lot short and i want to introduce a

man when's become a friend of mine. somebody who's going to make an unbelievable vice president of the united states, governor mike pence. >> we're excited to hear you address the nation tomorrow night. it's been exciting to hear from your family, more to come tonight. and i'm convinced what begins in cleveland will end in the white house! >> pence is getting set to take center stage later on night flee of the rnc convention. and then there was more from last night. we'll get a chance to take it around. let's first look at chris christie, former governor -- i'm sorry. former candidate, current govern nor of new jersey, also running the transition team. let's take a listen to what he had to say last night. >> tonight, as a former federal prosecutor, i welcomed the opportunity to hold hillary clinton accountable. in libya and nigeria, guilty. in china and syria -- in iran and russia and cuba --

and here at home for risking america's secrets to keep her own and lying to cover it all up -- here it is, everybody. we didn't disqualify hillary clinton to be president of the united states. the facts of her life and career disqualify her. >> so, last night, kimberly, very different speech than he gave in 2012 in tampa at the rnc when he was given that coveted slot and didn't go after obama like that, maybe a different tactic last night. >> definitely the target on all eyes on hillary clinton. he was very focused. it was a speech that was definitely about trump and about the choices between the two. so different from some of the criticism before that it wasn't supportive enough of romney speaking in the past. but i think you hit it former governor. i think indeed he will be. he gave a magnificent speech last night. i like the type of things, being a former prosecutor myself.

that was an audition, i think. you know? essentially to be the highest justice officer in the country. and he really made the case, not only for donald trump, but the case against hillary clinton. and the case for christie to be put in charge of the doj. >> taking that, juan, if you want to be the future attorney general, is it a step too far to be calling hillary clinton a felon from the rnc convention? >> yikes, i don't know, dana. to me, a lot of it -- i think ben carson went farther calling her lucifer. there's a lot of demonizing hillary clinton. the fact checkers had a field day with chris christie last night. i mean, when he says things like, you know, hillary clinton is responsible for the iran deal, so far iran is living up to the details of the deal. when he talked about, for example, what hillary clinton had to say about bashar al as d assad, the leader of syria as a reformer, well, actually, she was talking about congressional delegations that are going on

out there and came back and told her and it gets into the mess. the fun part is when the audience starts shouting lock her up, lock her up. >> interesting, though, that you bring up the point about iran because, eric, yesterday the obama administration, this is news that sort of got lost in all this other coverage and the obama treasury department, yesterday, said that there are three al qaeda officials who are living in iran. they're working with the government. i mean srks that living up to the deal? is that something to answer next week? >> oh yeah. she'll have to answer through november 7th when we go to the voting booth. can i point something out in the opening sound booth and trump and pence came in on a helicopter? landed. a big applause and then donald trump takes the microphone and talks off the cuff, just ad libs it. he just warms up the crowd and then hand the microphone to pence and he's a politician and you can see the difference between the politicians and donald trump. it was a striking contrast for me and i think that's why he's donald trump is resonating so

much. he's not the politician and he's even picking someone on the team who's a politician just like i guess because he wants to see some unity with the political establishment in d.c. as for last night, wow. what a night. i mean, you had speaker after speaker just dismantling everything that hillary is about to try to put together in advance of it and a very spefl night. i think donald trump jr.'s speech, fantastic. >> we can talk about that. >> fantastic. >> we can do the whole show in the a-block. it was chockful night and we have ben carson. trump, pence, christie? any of those? >> christie. i got three things to say. people -- a lot of people said he was extremely harsh, a harsh indictment of hillary. but isn't that what the left has done to the right? for so long. and the right has finally learned that the left created that idea that you're not just wrong, you're evil. and so now what you are seeing is the right going out there and

saying, yeah, they're evil, too. they should go to jail. lock her up. you see that all the time and i like the fact that he brought up cuba and he brought up the cop killer, killed a police officer from new jersey which is where chris christie's a governor. why this was wise was because he's doing it in a climate where police officers are being killed and he's tying it to hillary clinton. and he's saying that hillary clinton coddling cuba is essentially coddling a cop killer, really a damning thing to say but they're right. we don't have any way of getting this cop killer back. yet we coddled cuba. third thing and only criticism i have of christie is when he was ridiculing hillary over putin and wanted a reset with putin. who know who else does? donald trump! i mean, donald trump is saying interesting things about ukraine a bit disturbing in favor of putin and that was hypocrisy and the right is learning from the

left. they're becoming krip sits. >> and then that continued with dr. ben carson. juan mentioned it. this is him talking about hillary clinton and lucifer. >> oh my gosh. >> one of the things that i have learned about hillary clinton is that one of her heroes, her mentors, was saul olinski. interestingly enough, let me tell you about saul olinski. he wrote "ruled for radicals." on the dedication page, it acknowledges lucifer. are we willing to elect someone as president who has as their role model somebody who acknowledges lucifer? >> so for me, that was a step too far. juan, i'll let you talk about it since we were on air last night. >> you know, so you think back to mike flynn, the former national security guy, and then come forward to mayor giuliani

and now come forward to chris christie as we have been talking about and then ben carson, dr. carson. and the total demonization of hillary clinton, some minority you say, what unites the republican party at this point is not some positive future vision but we hate hillary clinton. she is the worst. if you don't vote for trump, you're going to get this devilish lady. you know? she is going to ruin the world. so tired of it. the part earlier of lock her up, lock her up, i was thinking, yeah, you went through this litany of things that fbi comey said and never come to, oh yeah, the director said there's no indictable criminal offense here and no reasonable prosecutor would have acted against her. >> there was criticism the convention seemed like the set-up for a salem witch trial against hillary clinton. >> that goes back to the original point which is, it's about time. i mean, the fact is, the right

has been demonized by the left because they believe, because their heart's in the right place, we are evil. conservatives are evil. so now the script is being flipped and also we knew that last night was all hillary sent rick anyway and what was more damning was -- when ted cruz was talking today, i think he was talking today and while he was talking you could see behind him trump's plane flying as he's trying to make a point, i know we have video of in. >> he could not buy a break. >> saying this slowly so they can load the video but you will see trump's plane coming. that's kind of like imagine serenading your wife like in a restaurant and frank sinatra walks in behind you. takes the wind out of your sails. >> we don't have it. >> there it is! >> they got it. >> they left it on the ground somewhere. >> a sound bite and kimberly react because this is former attorney general who was precise

in the criticism of hillary clinton. >> how she treated and what she did with government secrets when she was secretary of state and what she said about what she did both before and after she got caught exquisitely sums up the case against her presidency. hillary clinton is asking the people of this country, the people of the united states, to make her the first president in history to take the constitutional oath of office after already having violated it. message from this convention -- no way, hillary. no way on earth. >> kimberly, your thoughts on the former attorney general? >> he has a tremendous amount of credibility and respect. on both sides of the aisle. this is a man with considerable experience and impeccable reputation. when i interviewed him, you know, for greta, he really quite clearly makes the case against

hillary clinton saying he was very sur surprised they didn't recommend a prosecution or further investigation by the department of justice and in using hillary's words repeatedly lying about what she did and the evidence insurmountable in terms of the violations. i think that comey did make the case, he simply got the conclusion wrong. >> mukasey made the casey. >> thank you. >> donald trump jr. actually last night said that hillary clinton could be the only president who could not pass a background check. >> couldn't pass the vetting for vice president i think at one point they have even side. >> true. >> going back to hillary clinton's adoration of saul olinsky. >> and lucifer. >> and lucifer. my book, you know who i dedicated it to? president obama. >> obama. >> don't hold her accountable for the dedication. >> they didn't say which lucifer.

it was a common name many years ago. >> one quick point. the difference between the two nights, the first night was fiery speeches like rudy giuliani yelling at the camera. the generals yelling at the camera. >> marcus lut trel. >> this is toned down and cerebr cerebral. >> much more to come on "the five." stay tuned. we have something very special to show you. greg and i went to visit wounded warriors here in cleveland yesterday. we heard their inspirational stories that moved us. >> look how good you are at kayaking. she spent summer binge-watching.

♪ ♪ i'm on the highway to hell ♪ i'm on the highway to hell ♪ highway to hell last night trump's son don jr. cast the votes for new york to enable his dad to officially clinch the nomination. dad was very proud. >> today's been a very, very special day. watching my children put me over the top earlier, the party seal.

i mean, what we did getting the party's nomination, i'll never forget it. it's something i will never, ever forget. >> donald jr. then went on to deliver the most talked about speech of the night. >> you want to know what kind of president he will be? let me tell you how he ran his businesses. promoted people based on character, their street smarts and their work ethic. not simply paper credentials. i know he values the workers and qualities in people because those are the individuals he had my siblings me and work under when we started. we didn't learn from mbas. we learned from people who haddock trats in common sense. he knows that the heart of the american dream is the idea that whoever we are, wherever we're from, we can get ahead. where everyone can prosper together. >> all right. there's two jobs of a speech like that. number one, humanize a candidate. number two, you show if you're part of the administration you have what it takes to handle the responsibility. how did he do? >> yeah.

don jr. smashed it. he did an outstanding job. i love the content, the tone, the tenor, the delivery was really a standout. i mean, what better than a son that you work with so closely every day to make the case for you and to make the case for america? trust my father. he wants to be president. he wants to help this country and i know that he can. it's a strong endorsement and so many people last night said, wow, he has a political future and i expect the same from eric tonight and compelling with a great interview. >> greg, these children of ivanka, donald jr. and eric are running a multi-billion dollar real estate company and doing this. successful sfli. >> yeah. some would say successfully. this is proof of evolution. donald jr. is like a more effective version of his father. it's like, you know, trump is like the first iphone, the first generation iphone and donald jr.'s like the iphone se.

he's got all the effective revolutionary parts and like more airbrushed and more -- more improved adaptations to contemporary society. >> and smaller. >> much smaller! >> holds the charge very well. >> of speeches like this, how did they do? >> so i thought his speech was great. but i always don't trust myself. i watch a lot of these and do my sister test. contact my sister in denver. you watch any of the rnc? she said only last night. she said i liked his speech and what was different for the trump campaign was that he was able -- i think effectively to address millennials, millennials watching, that was pretty effective and talking about immigrants, maybe just having a different person on the trump campaign talk about in it a way to reach people in a better way. he said illegal immigration hurts the immigrants getting here legally trying to make the american dream their own and that's good.

>> tomorrow, we'll have ivanka, too. eric trump tonight and then ivanka tomorrow. they're bringing it home for dad. >> you design the convention presentations to deliver a message to the audience at home and the message is trump's a family guy. yes, he's been divorced twice, married thrice. the kids speak well of dad and like dad and not only that, the good part of donald jr.'s speech is when he talked about his father's ability to see something in people, maybe, you know, perspectively. that they can perform, do things and so many executives in the company are people coming from blue collar backgrounds. i like that stuff. >> good. >> let me just say, though, this is as compared to what? this is not a good convention for the republicans. >> i agreed. >> on so many levels and don's been the best but better than the rest is -- i don't know how high that bar is. >> can i say something, juan? i was curious what you thought because i was really touched and moved as someone that worked in

education, worked with children with special needs and brought up the education piece -- >> i liked that. >> and to kind of the rhetoric was softer, inclusive saying let's have great education opportunities for children. >> yep. >> let's really make it a place where everyone gets ahead and a benefit of an education and then cycles into the job market. nice tone. i agree with dana on immigration. people want to hear that especially trying to get in moderates or maybe democrats, independents. >> no. that's why i say for me, you know, we're talking about messaging in a convention, so the messaging has got to be in a way pervasive to people not sure about trump and the things he has to say and do. and i thought that me. especially talking about the ladder of upward mobility is stalled because of poor education opportunities for kids today. >> also quoted bernie sanders and i think the speech was also designed to target republicans feeling anxious about donald

trump's temperament and you looked at his son and go, he's even keeled, intelligent, patient and focused and all the thing that is you're looking for in donald that you don't see. >> last thought? >> i think it's helpful and not voting for him. okay? >> but you know what was nice? >> not now. maybe later. >> i know we have to go but on the point of the trump campaign made a mistake trying to message away the whole accusation of plagarism of melania's speech and find out today donald trump was so kind to the young staffer who admits today, oh no, it was me and he says, it's okay. people make mistakes. she offers the reresignation. on the team. that's the truth always the best answer. >> that's the rapid response. >> is that the truth or the spin? >> she is not fired. >> yeah. >> saying that they planted her? >> well no.

if i was him, i'd hire dana saying how can i get out of this mess and -- >> she is not a bailout. >> she is so calm. >> i got to go. my favorite line of the night bar none, donald trump jr. saying my dad sees impossible as a starting point. love this line. ted cruz get it is convention moment tonight. the question is, will he climb on board the trump train? that's ahead. ♪

♪ ♪ i feel good night three of the rnc is shaping up to be the biggest night of the convention so far and headliners will include eric trump along with scott walker, marco rubio, newt gingrich and oosk trump's running mate mike pence and all eyes are sure to be on ted cruz and not endorsed

the former rival. ahead of the prime time speech, cruz thanked delegates for support and sounded like someone who still wants to be president. >> our party now has a nominee. i don't know what's going to happen but what i do know, what remains unshakable, is my faith in the men and women here. there's a lot of talk of unity. i want to see unity and the way to see unity is for us to unite behind shared principles, us to unite in the defense of liberty. >> so this is sort of a suspenseful moment of the evening. what will cruz say and do? is he going to support him and then, greg, you were talking about the airplane moment earlier. >> i think that cruz is going to endorse trump. his reason is it's not like donald said both of the parents tried to kill jfk. just his dad. and then i have -- when marco rubio speaks, tonight, i actually brought him. >> oh no. >> two large hands. so that he can present these to

guy who's uniting the party from the base, from the right, from the evangelicals that ted cruz has and bring it. where's john skasich? >> this is his state. >> you represent this state. you represent this party. >> yeah. >> please get here. please get here. >> the delegates want him to come. i don't know. that's a rough business. >> there's another level to this discussion of ted cruz which is the chaos we saw monday evening. you know? late monday afternoon, late monday evening. a lot of that ted cruz people trying to get the delegate revolt and roll call and people putting pressure on reince priebus to open the door. priebus so politically involved and now you see cruz saying, well, oh gosh, after all the negotiations, okay. i'll give a speech. it is to ted cruz's advantage because as eric's saying, ted cruz still has strong political

ambiti ambitions, looking even if -- you were so confident. saying if donald trump wins and he's president. >> i said that to you in the break and actually ted cruz said he'll run for the president 2020. >> that's what you said. that means even if trump and the republicans are in, he's going to launch a primary challenge against the incumbent donald trump. now, what kind of love is that? i don't know. i'll telling you, ted cruz has been the hidden hand in the chaos attached to the convention. >> all right. dana, given the complexity of this and the news reports coming in, you know, right now just before this is about to happen and speakers coming tonight, what would you think handling a campaign? do you trust somebody? this is a guy with a photographic memory and doesn't have to use the prompter? >> i think in some ways the media forgets that there is a large portion of republicans who are unsatisfied with the current nominee. but they're trying to get to

terms with it. one of the columnist of "wall street journal" a friend, wrote you have to admit. trump is better than hillary. that was what the comments were last night. >> right. >> maybe ted cruz doesn't go as far as endorsing trump as like a scott walker has flipped and done and pence has flipped and done. but maybe ted cruz says, he's better than hillary. and this might be that all that they can and i recollect to the trump campaign, stop rubbing people's noses in it. if you can get him to say trump is better than hillary take it as a win and don't further alienate people and screaming at people does not encourage them to unite but dig in the heels. if they can get trump or cruz to say, trump is better than hillary, take it as a win. >> why not jeb? why can't we get? >> he said his brother was responsible for 9/11! what if jeb bush said to donald trump your dad was in the kkk?

>> because he's till better than hillary. he's still better than hillary. >> if you have a love for your father and somebody says your dad's responsible for 9/11, you don't enforce. >> the alternative is worse. >> what about the picture of his wife? oh my gosh. >> just saying. >> yeah. you don't get trump, you get hillary. >> never a dell moment on "the five." right? yeah. next, greg and dana spent some wonderful time yesterday with american heroes, wounded war yours, who are showing us all how we should be living your lives. get ready to be truly inspired. that's ahead. ♪ to folks out there whose diabetic nerve pain...

to people out there. i think eric trump is going to do an outstanding job. lau laura ingram, newt gingrich is for sure going to deliver and marco rubio. >> i think that's real interesting to see rubio. but do you think that this convention has been a success? >> i'm enjoying it. if you're in my seat, yeah, going well. >> "one more thing" coming right at you. stay with us. she spent summer binge-watching.

facebook was giving away these things. i got these little -- >> that's awesome. >> eric, you're best. >> i talked about law enforcement and the bad rap they've been getting. again, i walk around the city, it's amazing. these people are protecting us. a couple of pictures today. here's three cops, cleveland cops, richard has four kids. demarco, keisha has three boys. next picture. lee has a wife, three step kids, and eight grandchildren on the left. and dominic on the right has three beautiful boys. he's with the marshal's office, as well. again, you have to take care of these guys. they're putting the vests on every day. we're not. we don't have to because they do. >> and take a moment to thank them. >> kimberly, you're next. >> thank you so much. last night we got word that garry marshall, who is a famed director, you remember he is the man who directed "pretty woman" and "happy days," a lot of great
