we want to just do things that can be done and there's so many things to be done, politicians, they're all talk, they're no actionnd it's just not working and that's why i'm getting those kind of numbers. people know i cado the job. >> these groups like the club for growth say they'll spend big money to bury you in early states with attack ads. are you willing to reach into your pockets and spend back, how deep. >> as you know the club for growth came up to my office, asked for a misdemeanor million dollarsment. i laughed at them. i never even heard of them. i laughed and then they left my office after that. wrote me a letter and left my office and did an ad. negative ads. so, you know, these aren't legitimate people and these are the kind of people we have in politics. >> jeb bush striking back again much you've been in quite a feud with him in "the national review" he says he attacks my brother. it's yet another example of his dangerous views onational security issues. donana trump simply doesn'n'know what he's s lking about." >> well, look, jeb has had a very hard time.

he's way down in the polls. he's doing very poorly. he's embarrassed by what's happening and has to attack me to try to get his numbers up. i don't think it's going to work but the last thing we need is another bush. we've seen what happens and the last thing we need is another bush. and he understands that and the voters understand that and, you know, to compare me to michael moore is a first. that o hasn't happened befe. >> his brothth, george w. bush is out there, repopos at his fund-raiser struck out at ted cruz for opportunistically embracing you says he doesn't like the guy. is that what ted cruz is doing, embracing you for an opportunity? >> ted's been very nice. he's been amazingly respectful. he agrees with mososof my positions, if not all my positions and, you know, we had a very good relationship, so i don't know if you call that embracing. he respects what i'm saying. i think that's nice. >> you think he could una challengngto you. >> i don't know. i mean i r rlly don't know. i'm just going to put my head -- you know, i've won many times in my life. that's what i like to do is win and that's why the voters see me as somebody that can turn our country around. our country is in serious

trouble. we lose all the time. whether it's isis or whether it's 19 trillion in n bt, you know, , 're losing all the time, whether it's trade deals, no matter what it is, we lose. look at the new iran pact negotiated by incompetent people and the publics tired of it. >> paul ryan says he'll wiing to be spspker if republicans meet his conditions and unify behind him. you have differences with him on immigration, social security and medicare. does he have your support? >> well, i like him very much as a person. i don't like his -- you know, the issues y y mentioned and certainly he has been weak on immigration and i'm very strong on immigration. had we had strong immigration, you know, my policies, you may not have had the world trade center coming down a the attack. those people, some of them were here illegally, they were here under a very weak visas and so i feel very strongly about immigration and we have to be

he is not there. with that being said, if he's a unifying force whatever it's going to t te because they have e to unite, the republicans have to unite as a party. >> donald trump, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you very much, george. now to breaking news traordinary picturesesf a secret m mting, take a look atat syrian leader r shar al assad and russian president vladimir putin, assad sneaking out of his country as he fights a civil war against u.s.-backed rebels and isis. abc's alex marquardt is the region with the very latest on that story. good morning, alex. >eporter: good morninin amy. president assad is back in syria this morning after that meeting that took everybody by surprise. it's remarkable because it's the first time that assad has left syria during this war that has now lasted almost five years. it shows real confence by putin and assad in the middle of this conflict that has left around 250,000 syrians dead. now the u.s. has long said that

there's no role for assad in the future for syria because of everything he'e'done to his people, the u.s. has long backed the rebels that are looking to oust him. the same rebels the russian air force is targeting from the air. so assad isn't going anywhere for now. amy. >> all right, alex marquardt with the latest on that disturbing story. >> we'll turn to that hunt for a killer in new mexico. police searches for the shooter in a tragic road rage encounter that left a 4-year-old girl dead from a gunshot wound and ryan owens has the latest. >> reporter: good morng. thatatragedy unfolded on the highway bebend me. police say two cars kept cutting each other off and it ended in gunfire. >> the daughter is not conscious. she's going to be 4 years of age. >> reporter: what appears to be a single bullet hole in the windshield of the parent's pickup truck, one of the few pieces of evidence police have in their hunt for the child's killer. the person behind a deadly act of road rage alonghis

>> we're starting to see this throughout our nation and this is something that should not be happening in albuquerque, new mexico. let alone anywhere else in the united states. >> reporter: police say it happened around 3:00 tuesday afternoon. the two vehicles driving west along interstate 40. >> the cars are both moving one car pulled up against the other car and started firing rounds into that vehicle. >> reporter: an off-duty sheriff's deputy arriving on scene first finding the 4-year-old wounded girl and her distraught parents. >> the dad explained there was some type of road rage incident. >> the child rushed to a local hospital where she later died. >> i'm going to need freeway shut down. >> reporter: police brought the interstate to a halt for several hourpulling over cars mahing the various descriptions from witnesses. sweeping the area for a suspect. no luck. >> we do have a suspect vehicle we're looking for. i can't release the information at this time becausehere's confcting stories about what we're looking for. >> reporter: this morning the police chief here pleading for witnesses to come forward.

cocounity's help. we need to rise up as a community and say, enough is enough. >> and unfortunately the police chief really is as desperate as he sounds. he says descriptions of the killer's car are everything from two o or, four door, vararus colors, they need a lot of help. >> ryan, thanks so much for the latest. a major development for women in the battle against breast cancer, the arican cancer society is out with n guguelines for mammogramam abc's dr. richard besser is here and, rich, this headline causing a lot of confusion and a lot of concern. >> yeah, you know, i understand the confusion. take a look at this. there's several guidelines out from different groups. the ob/gyns and radiologists recommend starting at 40. the government task force recommending starting at age 50. the american cancer society, it's their first revision in 12 years and say start at a 45. what they say is women age 40 to 44 should have screening based

on personal choice. at 45, it's annual. and then starting at age 55, mammogram every other year. and then in addition, they are no longer recommending that your doctor or nurse do an annual breast exam. what they said was that's cking up changes that aren't cancer a a leading to treatment that's not necessary. >> and, rich, going off of that point, most people know that i was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 40 from a mammogram and so for women like me or women who are afraid they'y' going to be me, the big question is why. we know early detection saves lives. is it suggesting it doesn't save enough lives? >> what they're trying to balance is saving lives and reducing harm. and when they looked at the data, they saiaithat for a woman of average risk, 45 is that cut t point. but they're still leaving choice so a woman can start having screening at age 40. for women at higher risk, anyone who has a family history of breast cancer, who may have a genetic mutation like brca or

often is the way to go. >> 40 to 44, it's your choice but the big question is will this affect ur ability to have insurance cover those mammogramsms starting at an earlier age if you want to have that. if doctors suggest it. >> it shouldn't. yeah, it shouldn't because the insurance is based off the government recommendation and when they recommended age 50, congress said, no, you have to pay starting at age 40 so it won't change that. it may change what some doctors recommend for you, however but you do have that choice. >> let's h he the access is still there for all women who want it. dr. besser, thank you so much and i know that a lot of people have questions. you will be taking those questions on "gma" facebook page and on your twitter account, dr. thank you. >> all morning. we turn to t tse church res in st. louis. six predominantly black churches damaged in the past two weeks with the latest. >> reporter: hey, good morning, george. i want to show you some of the damage. take a look. completely blackened by the flames. son-in-law of the siding even

may be responsible for all of the incidents. this morning, investigators are scrambling searching for a serial arsonist believed to be responsible e r setting fires to at least six churches. the churches targeted all just outside st. louis located within three miles of each other. each fire starting at the front of night. >> it is arson. these are being intentionally set. reporter: though different denominations the congregations mostly black complicated racial tensions in an area still recovering from the riots following the 2014 police involved shooting death of unarmed teenager michael brown. this church forced to hold services on their front lawn because of fire damage to the building. >> very similar type fires, so they are very suspicious. it could be considered a hate crime. >> reportete and authorities now this mororng hoping someone who saw something may help lead them to an arrest. george. >> okay, alex, thanks.

this is my custom gown that t wanted to wear pink. >> reporter: cuoco is said to be the highest paid actress currently on television and is worth a reported $45 million. a far cry from sweeting who's estimated net worth is reportedly arounun $2 mimiion. >> there is a prenuptial agreement. he himself is a wealthy man and the court is not likely to award support. they're more likely to enforce the terms of the prenuial agreement. >> reporter: this isn't the first celebrity case of its kind. in september, brian austin green filed for spousal support from megan fox. his wife of five years. >> there's a definite trend we're seeing as practitioners that there are more men seeking support from ththr wives than we've ever seen before and that's primarily because women are making more money now. >> lawyers also report that in addition to spousal support, more and more women are being ordered to pay child support.

so great that women are makakg more money but this goes with the territory. these settlements. >> i guess it does. let's see how it works out. thank you. let's move on to our anti-aging series. turn back time and this mning al about dissolving double chins. accocoing to the american society for dermatologic surgery, nearly 70% of americans have them but now a new nonsurgical treatment may be able to help you melt a double chin away. abc's mara schiavocampo has more. >> r rorter: the double chin, a universally dreaded and hard to fix sign of weight gain or aging. many trying anything and everything toight them from bizarre neck exercises. >> stick your bottommeeth over yourur top teeth. >> reporter: to products and machines in is the world's fst resistance toning system. >> reporter: even turning to invasive surgery. >> all right. you ready to go? >> reporter: but could the solution to battling this bulge be as simplpl as getetng a shot.

can actually melt or dissolve fat underneath the chin. >> reporter: it's called kybella. a recently approved injection using deox i cloeic acid. naturallyccurringubstance in the body that digests the fat we eat to destroy fat cells. >> we inject kybella into the area under the chin and fat cells rupture and body flushes those ouof the body over the next couple of monthshs >> reportete doctors sayor best results patients should get two to four treatments, but note they can cost a pretty penny with one shot ranging anywhere from 1,000o $1500. but for some it's worth the cost. >> it permanently kills fat cells. >> reporter: each treatment lasts about ten minutes. >> clean the area then i'll numb the area and then place a template on that's going to help guide the injections and acts like tememrary ttoo. coupleleuick pinches then you'll be done.

tried everything to get rid of her double chin. >> i felt it made me look older. >> reporter: she had three shots during a clinical trial in 2012 and now three years laterhe is stilil thrilled witit the results. >> i can't say enough about it. i'm so happy. >> all right, back with us now dr. whitney bowe and expensive but impressive in terms of results but that's not the only way the neck ages. tell us what ppens. >> right, sohere arehree main categories when it comes to aging of the neck so first you have people who primarily have that fullness and they are great candidates for kybella but you have a subset who primaryily have loose o o sagging and would benefit from a skin tightening procedure and you get people who develop this banding effect up and down. it's really a combination of those three things that contribute to aging of the neck. >> all right, so we heard about the kybella and saw what happened. when you have the loose skin, you said tighten it. >> there's ultrasound and radio

frequency procedures that can actually tighten the skin so it's actually very similar to the shriners that we used to play with. wh you apply heat to the different layays in the neck, you can actually contract and tighten that skin. >> do you have to keep it up? >> it lasts about one to two year. >> that's longer than i would have thought. about about those neck band. >> take a look at this. basicallye have these things call platysmal bands in our neck and muscle fibers that run from the bottom of the chin down to the collarbone. now, as we mature, those muscle fibers bece more visible because the skin itse becomes thner and the effect can be very aging. so what you can do is i can actually sort of smooth out those bands and relax the muscles with a little bit of botox. i literally burch theand between my fgers and apply tiny drops of botox down each one off those bands and then it relaxes for about three to four months.

so -- all of these options are nonsurcal. >> all noninvasive or minimally invasive so minimal downtime. this wouou takeive minutes in the office. >> dr. bowe, thanks for joining us. >> thank you very much both of you and turning now in the "heat index" to kate a royal debut at a state banquet. the queen welcomed the chinese president last night with a lavishdinner.. william and kate were there looking dazzling in white tie and diamonds. abc's lama hasan has more from london. good morning, lama. >> reporter: good morning to you, lara. this morning that chinese state visit is still going strong with william andnd kate celebrating creative cultural ties between the two nations but make no mistake, everyone is still talking about that state banquet last night, a first for the duchess and, boy, was she the toast of the party. overnight the duchessf cambridge making a dazzling debut at her first ever state banquet. >> she attended dinners before and attended lavish dinners in

buckingham palace but never attended an actual ste banquet so this was a big milestone for her. >> reporter: kate's helpingng roll out the red carpet for the chinese president pulling out all the stops under taking a high-profile role for this white tie event. >> she looked like everything you would expect from a dumps and i'm surur thehe chinese president was happy to be sitting next to her. >> mr. president -- >> reporter: with the queen wining and dining around 170 guests, on the night all eyes were on the duchess looking regal in red. a nod to tpe chinese flag. kate choosing a sparkling floor length gown by one of her favorite designers, jenny packham dripping in bling. check out the lotus tiara with diamonds and pearls on display. >> she had a stunning tiara borrowed from the queen, earrings t match and a a absosotely enormous bling bracelet which we think was also collection. >> reporter: these banquets are serious business. every single detail checked by

royal staff taking three days to lay out the table andet's not evenentalkbout the etiquette. clki glasses with your neighbor, a must. >> i think that she will have done a very good job of wooing him which is what britain is trying to do with china and i i think she e d had been a good ambassador fororthat. >eporter: this morning they're tipping to fly the british flag at another event with their chinese guests. and that was a 3500$3500 dolce and gabbana lace dress kate wasas wearing. as for the state banquet if you're wondering what one eat, a four-course meal including venison from the balmoral estate and vintage wine, each bottle costing a mere $1600 and that, my friends, sounds pretty good to me. >> yes and when the queen is done, you're done. >> that's just what i was going to say. you have to watch for the queen's eating and put your fork do too. >> no matter where you are in your meal?

in 1985? >> ronald reagan. ronald reagan, the e tor. ha! then who's vice president? jerry lewis? >> could they have predicted trump? >> no. don't think so. number two, george mcfly facing the biggesesfear of all past, prent and future, talking to a girl. >> yes, i'm george, george mcfly. i'm your density. i mean your destiny. >> that's so good. i love that one, and now the number one quote from "back to the future," do we have enough road for this? >> roads? where we're going we don't need roads. there you go. what do you guys think? >> well, we still need roads. >> yes. we need roads, and you are my density.

watch the movie with your kids because they're rereity and when they go back and look, it's fantastic. >> yeah. >> it's a classic. so there you have it, everybody. tomorrow who knows what the "top 5" list will bring. >> we'll find out tomorr. now ininde to ginger. >> oh, thank you so much. now to our series "baby oh! baby" and this morning, we're tackling baby brain. so many moms-to-be including myself talk about it, but is it real? pregnant women often complain about a phenomenon called baby brain. >> so, rob, we'll have much more coming up -- or dan. >> and that's just one of several flubs i've had. since i learned i was having a baby, i've been more forgettable. my memory seems just a little different, and when i tweeted about it, the momnesia moments started pouring in from all of you. >> i cooked a frozen pizza and couldn't find the cardboard it came on. found it when the timer went off in the oven. >> the struggle is real. i threw a library book in my washing machine. >> it's real enough to make it into "modern family." >> i have the brains in my body

but i've never been so dumb. >> it happens. i get it. you have another human being inside of you competing for resources. >> while there isn't much science to support the existence of baby brain, there are contributing factors during pregnancy that can affect memory cognitive ability. >> sleep deprivation, possible illness, stress, depression, anxiety. all these factors alone can cause problems with learning and with memory. >> just kind of the ultimate multitask before you have the baby, right? >> i tried to make excuses here and joining us now abc news senior medical contributor dr. jennifer ashton. dr. jen, tell us, i know you've delivered more than a thousand babies and you've got two of your own. momnesia is real, right? how common? >> all right. don't shoot the messenger. about 75% of women complain of

this but there is scant to no hard data, no test, no scanner i can put you through. nothing i can hook up your blood to. no blood test i can say, ginger, you have it. the good news, by a year postpartum it's all back to normal. >> okay, well, that's good news. i did go under some cognitive testing to test my memory. i mean, you hud have seen this. more than an hour with one of your colleagues. this was incredible to see. but, you know, the question is, i guess, can we tell anything from a test like that? >> unfortunately, not yet. we're not there yet. we have great neurocognitive tests to look for alzheimer's, for brain injury and concussion. not for momnesia yet, and you did pass with flying colors, so even though you feel impaired, you're still functioning at a high level. >> we know hormones change and the whole body changes. so could hormones be impacting -- >> there are huge changes in the brain hormonally. this is the major circulating hormone.

and dopamine. there's not good consensus on what they do to our brain. >> finally i have to think that the blood flow -- and you've heard this before, blood flow is all going here so does it go away from your brain? >> a lot is going there but -- this is not blood but food dye but the major, major blood flow changes. this is how much your heart is pumping per minute, seven liters. this is how much increased blood volume a pregnant woman gets and gets distributed among the organs. this goes to the kidney, half a liter to the uterus. almost a liter goes to the brain, that's kind of the same as prepregnancy so we can't blame it on this. >> we can't blame it on anything but it's real. i'm telling you. >> you're growing a human, so be patient with yourself. >> thank you, dr. ashton. we'd like to thank our sponsor, ddrops. and later this week, tips on how to prevent pregnancy back pain, which i've also had. we'll take your questions, our "gma" facebook page and on twitter @drjashon. >> my last decade of excuses

father that ended up in an army that ended up running an army. i wouldn't call him charismatic but i can tell that he has a character that has personality and has to bring in a lot of people and listen to his ideology. it was one of the most complex roles i've ever played in my life if i'm honest. >> did you struggle at all with taking ion? >> yeah, definitely. there were themes in this film, you know, dealing with child soldiers subjecting children to just horrific things and i definitely struggled with that. you know, cary fukunaga, the actor/director, we spoke about it for ages. it was like, man, this is tough. >> a character that has been thrown around about you, james bond. any truth to the rumors? >> there isn't any truth to that. it's like the biggest rumor in the world and it's not even true. >> the author of the new james bond novel called you too street to play bond. your response on instagram was something you learned on the streetet what was that?t? >> you just got to keep smilinin you know. i mean, it's free. you know, for me like actors could certainly absorb

about them. but if you did that, youou wouldn't be e o you are and you wouldndn be the person you are so i tend to brush most people's opinions off with a smile and just keep it moving. >> i think that's something we can all learn from. thank you so much. idris, we appreciate it. it's a fantastic film. everyone should go out and see it. >> thank you, amy. >> thank you. and you can. "beasts of no nation" is in theaters and available on netflix right now. ginger, back out to you. >> oh, amy, and this is tony. he's from iowa and you skipped a whole week of school. >> yep. >> and hs just loving it. he's getting a little life perience in new yorkrkity. and we're e rm. we're very warm but not going to stay that way for very long. the october warmth statistics from memphis up through here, even into boston and then, look, we do seeafter some areas picked up tremendous rainfall yesterday, the action is now well off to the east of us. we should be
