7:05 am

7:06 am
that the way you do something in a pluralistic society is you put it out in the open so that everybody understands what's going on. >> reporter: donald trump at one point playing referee criticizing carly fiorina for cutting people off. >> why does she keep interrupting everybody? >> yeah. >> reporter: and fighting for jeb bush to get a chance to speak. >> governor -- >> you should let jeb speak. >> thank you, donald, for allowing me to speak at the debate. that's really nice of you. i really appreciate that. what a generous man you are. >> reporter: but later bush clashed with trump over immigration refusing to support mass deportation of undocumented immigrants. >> it's just not possible. and it's not embracing american values. and it would tear communities apart. and it would send a signal that we're not the kind of country that i know america is. >> reporter: what we didn't see last night, not a single candidate not even donald trump who was talking tough on the campaign trail going after dr. ben carson and so many people
7:07 am
were talking about the bush/rubio rematch, that never happened. the next debate five weeks away. george. >> thanks, tom and one of the candidates, senator marco rubio joins us now. some more good reviews for you, senator, last night. you stayed out of that debate between jeb bush, john kasich and donald trump over immigration and trump's mass deportation plan. kasich called it silly, not adult. is he right? >> well, first of all, my position on it is well stated and that is we have to deal with immigration in three steps. we can't do it all at once. tried to in 2013 and the american people don't trust the federal government so we have to begin by proving to people that illegal immigration numbers are down significantly. the second step would be to modernize our legal immigration system so it's merit based and after those two things we have to responsibly but realistically deal with people here illegally and as i said if you're a criminal, haven't been here very long you can't stay. for everyone else you'd have to pass a background check, learn english, pay a fine, start paying taxes and you'll get a
7:08 am
work permit for ten years. i think this is the way forward. that's my position. it's been well stated for a long time and i think it's the only way forward on immigration at this point. >> a lot think ted cruz could be your toughest opposition. he seemed to send a shot across your bow taking on the issue of sugar subsidies, you have gotten a lot of money from them in the past. you support the subsidies. that's drawn criticism. rubio and big sugar. your sugar high is a new low a betrayal of conservative principles. how do you respond? >> i'm prepared to get rid of the sugar program. every country in the world that has sugar has a program, a subsidy and when they get rid of their, i'm prepared to get rid of theirs. >> you know that's not going to happen, though. >> because of free trade. but i'm not going to wipe out an american industry that happens to have a lot of workers in florida by unilaterally disarming them. i want us to be able to compete with other countries. it has to be fair. they have huge advantages.
7:09 am
they don't have an epa or labor unions in those countries so if we could just even the field, if they -- if other countries that we're competing against get rid of their programs i'll be the first one working to get rid of ours but i'm not going to destroy an american industry that employs people in my state. by disarming it. >> there was a moment off mike during one of the commercial breaks, you headed over to governor bush, jeb bush and just seemed to ice you. what happened there? >> oh, someone showed me that video last night. it made it look that way. we were fine. look, we're running for president of the united states and so -- but i don't take any of it personal. there was nothing behind it. i know it makes for an interesting vine video but it wasn't anything of meaning. >> senator rubio, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. thanks very much. all right, george, thank you. abc's chief business and economics correspondent rebecca jarvis, you can see is here fact checking a couple of big moments from the two front-runners and,
7:10 am
rebecca, at one point rand paul called out donald trump about a big trade deal. who is right? >> this was a really important question last night. robin, it was about why donald trump is opposed to the tpp trade deal and listen to what he says about china and how the other candidates respond. >> almost everybody takes advantage of the united states, china in particular because they're so good. it's the number one abuser of this country. we are losing jobs like nobody's ever lost jobs before. i want to bring jobs back into this country. >> hey, gerard, we might want to point out china is not part of this deal. >> true. it's true. >> that's right. >> that's right. >> so you have kasich and paul, they're correct on this. china is not part of the trade deal. 12 countries are including japan and australia as well as the united states and what's interesting here, military strategists actually think what's vital to this deal is the part that economically speaking china is not a part of the deal and actually think the fact that
7:11 am
china is out is it a big reason for the deal's success. >> we see all the countries that are. >> all of them right here. not china. >> not china. the debate began talking about minimum wage. they had protesters outside there in milwaukee and the candidates were asked about that and ben carson had something interesting to say about minimum wage. >> every time we raise the minimum wage, the number of jobless people increases. >> so is he right? >> so i talked to a number of economists on this. they're deeply divided on this question. not all of the time is there job loss when there are wage hikes, however, there can be job loss associated with wage hikes and the university of chicago did a study of the 42 top economists in the country, they asked what would happen if the wages were increased, the minimum wage to 15. 40% undecided. between the remaining 60%, they were totally split. >> so between the remaining 60%. >> totally split yes and no. >> rebecca, thank you very much. george. >> thank you, guys, let's break it down with jon karl, matthew dowd, are here.
7:12 am
jon, a lot of substance. not too many fireworks. did it change anything? >> not really. rubio seemed to be the winner, not a huge win for him. had an assist from rand paul when challenged on foreign policy. good for ted cruz. jeb bush had his best debate so far but not enough cho thank the dynamic. overall it doesn't change the dynamic. you still have trump and carson doing nothing to move them from their front-runner status. george, we are almost at halftime when it comes to debates. four debates. four debates where donald trump has been the front-runner. he has not been significantly challenged. he has not stumbled and that means another win ultimately for donald trump. he doesn't move. >> five-week gap until the next debate. >> i actually think this is starting to come into line like the college football playoffs where we're basically coming down to four candidates that are left in the race, trump, carson, rubio and cruz and i think if we had another debate where rubio and cruz did very well, if these were stocks, after this debate if these folks were stocks i'd put a hold on carson and trump because i think there's still some things missing there and
7:13 am
put a buy on cruz and rubio and i'd pull a sell on jeb bush. >> still a sell. >> pretty low right now. >> i would get out as soon as you can because his 6% or 7% is not going up after the debate. he did better but not good enough to leap over. >> matthew dowd, jon karl, thanks very much. later i'll head to washington for an exclusive interview with president obama and we'll bring you that on friday. right here on "gma." back to robin. >> now to that fiery plane crash in ohio. a small jet going down in a residential area killing at least two people on board. abc's david kerley is on the scene for us in akron this morning. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this morning crash investigators and a mass casualty team will be here where that small jet crashed. we have confirmed that two have been killed but authorities are unable to confirm what the jet's owner and family members are saying that there were nine people on board this small jet. >> there's some sort of explosion on mogadore road.
7:14 am
>> reporter: this is what they found. two homes ablaze and the remnants of a business jet. this morning, more questions than answers as to why a plane plunged into a residential neighborhood. >> we have a plane into a house. heavy fire. we have a lot of wires down. >> reporter: the small jet a hawker 25 can carry up to ten passengers, it was en route from dayton to akron but just more than a mile from its destination the jet goes down, authorities have not confirmed how many were flying on the aircraft. they do say they don't expect to find any survivors. at least two confirmed dead. the pilot and co-pilot. witnesses say the jet appeared to be having trouble before crashing. >> have you found the plane? >> yeah, i believe the plane -- it's in the brush. >> reporter: the shock and horror of the crash captured in this woman's face who says she was video chatting at the time. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: you don't think a plane would drop in a residential area like this. this is crazy. >> reporter: beth montgomery is one of the residents. she's normally home every day
7:15 am
but on tuesdays she has lunch with her son. >> if i don't meet my son on tuesdays, i would have been there. >> reporter: despite the devastation, she's counting her blessings. >> i have my life and that is most important. >> reporter: this morning, a new jersey woman who is driven to ohio says her sister was one of the passengers on board. >> between the siblings we started doing some detective work and made some calls and checked some flight plans and kind of put two and two together that it was her. >> reporter: abc news has learned there was no mayday call. there was no distress call. and there are only questions this morning, what actually happened to this jet less than two miles from the airport. why did it go down? robin and george. >> a lot of questions still coming. thanks. we turn to the first blizzard of the season hitting the mountains hard. snow falling in denver right now and the storm is on the move. ginger is tracking it all. >> this veterans day storm has now moved from the mountains into the foothills so denver, 3 to 6 inches.
7:16 am

7:17 am
>> amy has the m >> amy has the morning's other top stories starting with that crackdown on fantasy sports sites. >> that's right. new trouble, big trouble for daily fantasy sports sites, fanduel and draftkings. new york's attorney general say they amount to illegal gambling and ordered them to stop accepting bets from new york residents or face criminal charges. the companies insist they are running games of skill, not chance. and therefore shouldn't be subject to gambling regulations. new york's decision could pave the way, though, for more states to take action. well, more than 100 bikers have now been indicted in connection with this shoot-out between motorcycle gangs and police at a texas restaurant back in may. nine people were killed. the bikers are charged with organized criminal activity.
7:18 am
and in virginia, three men are accused of plotting to attack synagogues and black churches as part of a race war. they reportedly tried to buy weapons and explosives from undercover agents. overseas germany is imposing tighter controls on refugees crossing its border and it now wants to force syrians to apply for asylum in the european country where they first arrived. it's a sign germany's refugee intake may be reaching its limits. and encouraging news about former president jimmy carter's battle against cancer. doctors say he is responding well to treatment and they have found no new tumors. well, finally it's a sticky job but someone's got to do it. crews begun steam cleaning seattle's famous gum wall. for 20 years -- look at that -- people have been sticking their chewed up gum on that wall. an estimated 1 million pieces, cleanup will take several days and then gum chewers will have a fresh wall to decorate again, right? because are you really going to stop them?
7:19 am
>> why did they start doing it? >> they just started in the '90s, people started throwing their gum there and the idea just stuck. >> i knew that was coming. >> i did that for you. i'm here for you, amy. thank you. >> much more ahead on this veterans day and an abc exclusive, the skier seen plumbing 1,600 feet down a mountain now speaking out. we'll talk about the air bag that helped save his life. also ahead, a murder mystery, a mcdonald's mogul's wife found dead in her home. we'll have the search for the killer right now right here on "gma." >> it's our live challenge. it's begun hundreds of dollars worth of brand-new phones taking the plunge. will they survive? we'll find out coming up on "gma." we'll find outcoming up on "gma."

8:15 am
they say it won't shatter after a fall from five feet so we'll try it out right now. motorola gave us these two phones to try it out. we've got motorola standing by right now to watch it happen, so here we go. on the count of three, guys, we are we go. we're going to drop it from five feet. three, two, one. ah. >> ouch. >> and what do we got? it works. it's still good. >> adrienne from motorola right here smiling feeling good. feeling optimistic. >> i never had a doubt. >> all right. >> you're not coming down yet, are you? >> no, i'm not. let's go higher, guys. let's go up. we're going to double up here. motorola does not guarantee this. it only says the screen is shatterproof for drops up to five feet. we're going to go up to ten feet now, so let's get the audience to put on those safety goggles just in case. here we go. we're going to drop -- count with me. three, two, one. oh. >> here we go. what do we got?

we have a perfectly good phone, everybody. that's what we got. >> wow! >> it works. how about that? were you a little nervous? >> no, not at all. >> when you test it, do you take it to greater heights? >> we put it through a lot of extreme testing and there's actually five layers of screen technology in there that is guaranteed not to shatter. >> i'm going to tell you right now you need to get a phone like this. i've seen your phone. it's a mess. it really is a mess. >> we actually learned it's not actually glass. >> no, no, it's not. it's actually a flexible display. >> like a plexiglas. >> well, it's -- >> top secret technology but it's really truly flexible so even michael could fumble this and not -- >> not that you would ever fumble. >> i never fumble. great job, gio. thank you. you passed the test and now we're going to take it back inside to amy. >> we actually have another test here in our series "gma body proud" with model and body activist ashley graham. this morning we are challenging the notion of what it means to be healthy by putting two models to a health test. they're the same age, almost
8:17 am
exactly the same height but with one very important twist. take a look. they are top models who shine every day in photos and on the catwalk. but we want to know is a size 2 as healthy as a size 14? to find out we're putting these two gorgeous women through medical and fitness tests. first up ashley graham, age 28. stands tall at 5'9" and wears a size 14. she has no family history of diabetes or heart disease and exercises regularly. >> i do all kinds of cardio and weight lifting. i do classes. >> reporter: and abeba davis, also age 28. measures 5'10" and wears a size 2. she has diabetes in her family and exercise, ah, not so much. >> i walk my dog a lot. >> walking counts. >> the two start their exam with our own dr. jennifer ashton. >> we'll do some basic height, weight, check some basic bloodwork that's kind of like

8:19 am
>> this is a fit test. >> okay. >> you're going to have both feet facing directly towards me and your arms are going to be nice and long overhead. >> so which model is a picture of health? find out live right now. >> that's right and we have ashley with us and dr. jennifer ashton as well, so, dr. ashton, why don't you tell us the results. >> the moment of truth. so first thing we did, we checked blood pressure. head-to-head, both in the normal range. ashley's is actually a little better than abeba and did a nonfasting diabetes test called the hemoglobin a1c. both normal. you did a little better than abeba. cholesterol, ldl. both normal. this is where abeba did a little bit better than ashley. we want to thank quest diagnostics for running these labs for us and then we put you on the treadmill and did a fitness test, both passed pretty well.
8:20 am
i mean, you are 28. but i want to be clear. weight is relevant. it's one thing that we look at. we want to assess that today. you both did great and we also want to assess it down the road in the future, and that's why living a healthy lifestyle is so important. >> what do you make of those results? >> i'm not surprised. i mean, don't judge a book by its cover. it's clear this is a very healthy woman right here. >> i love it. >> yes, you are. >> you started at the very beginning of your day, what do you do each and every morning? >> i like to start with hot water and lemon and do -- it's alkalines my body but i always have a green juice. i swear a green juice a day keeps the doctor away. >> like a serving of vegetables. >> yes, spinach, kale, apple, lemon, ginger. >> cheers. >> and you can get about 2 1/2 cups of vegetables per day and get that in a nice juice in the morning. try to use the pulp so you get the fiber. >> okay. >> i made it a little sweet. sorry. >> it's great. you guys, you're already done. >> yeah. >> then in terms of keeping your body fit, because you are fit. you proved that today. what do you do?
8:21 am
>> thank you, girl. >> squats, arms, i am always traveling, i never settle down. i don't know where i'm going to be, so -- >> i'll just sip my juice while you guys work out. this is like multitasking. >> arms are really important and i always like to go this way and then, doctor, sorry, i'll come a little forward and i like to go out and i like to do it with a squat and make sure -- >> full body workout. >> yes, make sure that your butt is out like you're going to sit down and knees cannot go over your toes. >> dr. ashton, anyone who follows you on instagram knows you're doing these every day. >> women need to do weights. they need to do resistance training. it's as important as cardio and your form is on point. >> you keep working out. i'll keep drinking, and, ginger, out to you. >> i love the green drink. asia said some green drinks are good. not all. we have a lot of young faces in the crowd this morning. you are not in school. it's veterans day, i forgot already but i didn't forget about the veterans. we're so grateful for everybody and check in with them but first we have to check in on the snow

8:43 am
we are counting down to thanksgiving with our friends from "the chew" this morning. carla hall, clinton kelly, mario batali and michael symon. and i love this. let's begin right here. everybody is so daunted by the the idea of the big turkey, cooking it evenly. brilliant way to do it right here. >> yes, so what i'm doing is i break it down because, one, you have less space it takes in the fridge and, two, all the pieces cook evenly so i start with a brine, salt, sugar. all of these spices then i make a gremolato, which is parsley, garlic, lemon zest and chilies and put in under the skin then i start cooking it and look at this here. >> pan fried turkey. it looks so good. >> pan fried turkey.
8:44 am
it is so good, george. are you smelling it? >> it smells so great. then do you put more gremolato on later on? >> no, that's the gremolato coming through the skin. you want to flip that? >> i'll try. >> you can do it. you can do it. go, george. yes. see, george can cook a turkey. >> get this out of the way. >> yeah. get that out of the way. >> it is a great idea. so beautiful. how long? >> it cooks for about 35 minutes, 35, 40 minutes. >> so much better than three or four hours that a normal turkey would take, then on to the veggies. >> yes, this is roasted acorn squash. we've seeded, sliced it into, you know, spears like this. a little olive oil, salt and pepper. put that in the oven for about a half hour and to go on top of that we're making a delicious sauce >> first you bake that. >> first you bake it. >> then the cheese sauce. >> then the cheese sauce is butter and flour and then milk and thyme and you can put that gruyere cheese in there. >> do you have the recipe on the website? i tasted it. it's very good. >> it's delicious, right.
8:45 am
we get the cheese sauce going and we drizzle the cheese over the cooked acorn squash wedges. >> this could not be easier, clinton. >> right. >> then the final touch which was such a surprise is the macadamia nut. >> hazelnuts. >> actually. >> macadamia nuts would be lovely, as well. >> use the nut of your choice. >> you see amy over there. >> yes, this is the big winner except let's pass it on because stuffing, this man knows stuffing. >> mario, it is about everything. what's so special about that -- >> we have fennel sausage, fennel, chuftnuts and apples cut into cubes. we've taken -- this is ciabatto that we've dried out but the real trick take all of the crufts of the bread starting in september and save them in your freezer so it's virtually free so dump that over the dried bread. then you take some homemade chicken stock or even store bought chicken stock, a little butter, parsley and there you pack it into this dish like that
8:46 am
and bake it for 40 minutes. this for me is what i would rather have of all the leftovers, i'd rather have a stuffing sandwich than anything else. >> easy on the wallet. >> i am with you. >> we have to have dessert, mike. >> i combined my two favorite desserts into one, so we have a chocolate pumpkin pie. and the tip here is because it is a loose custardy base and you can make the pie crist the day before, you could make the custard the day before, it's just pumpkin, melted chocolate, a little bit of cream, eggs, brown sugar and then the spices, clove, ginger, nutmeg and then you just take this, you bake the crust at 425 the day ahead of time. you take that beautiful custard and you pour it in. >> it's so good. >> and then the morning of thanksgiving, you bake it at 350 for an hour and you have these beautiful chocolate pumpkin pies. >> how do you transport it to grandma's house? >> you know, i just get a good box and bring it on over. >> all right. i thought there was a towel or something involved. >> these are all on our website.
