7:01 am
how she says it affected the president and her message for the nation just months before the election. >> this country is on a precipice, and we have a decision to make. >> only on "gma" this morning. new hope in the race for a vaccine. the chief medical officer behind a promising trial talking about it on "gma" this morning as the head of the cdc makes a grim prediction saying the months ahead will be, quote, one of the most difficult times in american public health. with hospitals at capacity across the south and schools caught in the middle, the passionate pleas from teachers. overnight, supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg hospitalized. the latest health scare for the 87-year-old. what we're learning about her condition this morning. secret marriage. the bombshell about ghislaine maxwell revealed in court as bail is denied for jeffrey epstein's alleged accomplice. fierce fallout. nick cannon fired overnight after making racist and anti-semitic remarks. how he's responding this
7:02 am
morning. ♪ vogue and from the runway to the rumba. tyra banks named "dancing with the stars"'s brand-new host. what she's revealing about the season that will be like no other, first on "gma" this morning. and we do say good morning, america. great to see george back on this very busy wednesday morning. we're going to have the latest on the coronavirus vaccine trial just ahead, amy. >> yeah. that's right, robin. some promising results, and that news comes as a new fema memo reveals nearly 65,000 covid patients are currently hospitalized across this country. so a lot of eyes watching what happens with treatments and those vaccines, george. good to see hope out there. first, my exclusive interview with president trump's niece mary trump. she just published a scathing memoir of her uncle and family who went to court to block the
7:03 am
book and prevent mary from doing any interviews. i sat down with her after a judge ruled she could not be stopped from speaking out. her book is a deep dive into her past with the trump family but mary is very focused on what the country should do right now. >> what's the single most important thing you think the country needs to know about your uncle? >> he is utterly incapable of leading this country. and it's dangerous to allow him to do so. >> based on what you see now or what you saw then? >> based on what i've seen my entire adult life. >> what do you want to happen now? >> this country is on a precipice, and we have a decision to make in the not too distant future about who we want to be and where we want to go as a country. it's hard for me to process just how many awful things are going on simultaneously on a daily
7:04 am
basis, and people need to know. people need as much information as is available in order to make a decision that makes sense for our future as a country, as americans, as citizens of the world so to speak. >> you do have one potentially explosive allegation in the book, at least one, and you write that when the president was trying to transfer from fordham to penn, he had someone else, a man named joe shapiro, take his s.a.t.s? >> yes. >> this was 1964. how do you know that? >> i've been told this by people in my family. i am absolutely confident that it's true. i'm happy to finally be able to speak about it. i also know that it was not the joe shapiro people have been focusing on.
7:05 am
>> so to be clear it's not pam shriver -- >> no. >> pam shriver, the widow of joe shapiro, has come up and said, he didn't meet donald trump until penn. there's no way this is true. >> yes, and i feel terrible she's been subjected to this. honestly i wish i could have said something sooner and i think the only people other than me who can address it are other people in my family and i look forward to hearing their response to that question. >> how do you know it's true? >> i trust my sources. >> is joe shapiro still alive? >> that, i don't know. i have no idea. >> have you ever met joe shapiro? >> i have not. >> so you're confident -- you believe in your sources. >> uh-huh. >> how do your sources know? >> they were alive at the time, so they have firsthand knowledge of this. >> and you believe other members of your family also know this is true? >> yes.
7:06 am
>> white house says it's an absurd falsehood. >> of course they would. >> can you prove it's true? >> can i prove -- no, because i -- i'm counting on people i trust who told me this story, so in terms of documentation, no, i can't prove it, but i can certainly say with 100% certainty that i was told this story by a source very close to donald. >> election night 2016, i think you tweeted out worst night of my life. >> one of them. >> one of the worst nights of my life. then why go to the white house in april 2017? >> i had been on the outside of this family for a really long time, and after my cousin ivanka's wedding which for reasons i still don't understand i was invited to, my aunt
7:07 am
maryanne and i started talking, and we developed a relationship which we had never had before, quite honestly, and it mattered to me, you know. it was the first time i had felt part of the family since i was a kid, and somehow it was very easy for me to put aside all of the things that had happened previous to that. when i got invited to her birthday party, i felt that i should -- i should go. >> you go, you see the president in the oval office and you tell him, don't let them get you down. did you mean that? >> i did actually. he -- that was four months in. he already seemed very strained
7:08 am
by the pressures. i didn't mean i want you to keep doing what you're doing and get away with it, but -- and also so much of what has happened since then hadn't yet happened, and i thought his response was actually more enlightening than my statement and he said, they won't get me. and so far, looks like he's right. >> and if you're in the oval office today, what would you say to him? >> resign. >> blunt as she could be right there. we're going to have a lot more of this exclusive interview coming up in the next half hour and she'll talk about what she calls a malignantly dysfunctional family, the entire trump family, and she it all began with the father of president trump, fred senior.
7:09 am
robin. >> as you said, george, you'll have more in a bit. in the meantime, we'll turn now to the latest on the coronavirus emergency. the head of the cdc warning that in the months ahead, we could face one of the most difficult public health situations the country has ever seen. but there is some promising news about one of the vaccine trials. matt gutman joins us now from los angeles with more on that. good morning, matt. >> reporter: hey, good morning. so much about re-opening safely especially at schools hinges upon vaccines. now, moderna out with the full results of its phase 1 trial, 45 people got the vaccine. all of them developed antibodies. now, the question is, how long does the immunity from those antibodies last and how much immunity does it provide but as dr. anthony fauci said, any way you slice it, it's good news. this morning, the vaccine created by u.s. biotech company moderna partnered with the nih is on its way to phase 3 of testing after its phase 1 vaccine trial found that 45 of
7:10 am
the people who were given the vaccine all developed covid antibodies. >> our data demonstrated that, indeed, the more dose we give the higher immune response and i think it allowed us to nicely define what we believe is the optimal dose to take further into what are called late phase or phase 3 trials. >> reporter: and the nation's top infectious disease expert, dr. anthony fauci, says the company and other vaccine makers assure him they will be able to make up to a billion doses. >> i hope that that time will be reasonably soon. and when i say soon, i say within the next year, year and a half. >> reporter: that glimmer of hope coming after sobering words from the cdc, warning it could be a long time before we see any light at the end of the tunnel. >> i do think the fall and the winter of 2020 and 2021 will be probably one of the most difficult times we've experienced in american public health. >> reporter: icu beds are already filling up across the south, and a fema document obtained by abc news highlights hospitals in 33 states now
7:11 am
reporting a shortage of health care workers. >> we are full. the vacancy light is off. >> reporter: in california as the number of daily cases reaches over 7,000, new guidelines on who can be tested were released in the hopes of managing overcrowded lines. there is not a single appointment available in the entire city of l.a. at any one of these testing sites and now california public health officials are admitting that the results are taking so long that it has made contact tracing impossible. and as the battle over what to do about school wages on, 36 students at one high school in illinois testing positive after officials say many of the students took part in athletic camps and social events. in florida, teachers asking their school districts to defy governor desantis' order to resume in-person classes in august. >> when i signed up to teach i didn't sign up for hazardous duty, folks. i served 8 1/2 years in the military and never once feared for my life.
7:12 am
i do now. what in the hell are we doing? >> reporter: one of the biggest battles over schools brewing right here in southern california. the orange county school board voting for in-person classes this fall without mandating for masks or social distancing, but already some school districts saying they're going to defy that, saying they'll go online with remote learning from home this year. amy? >> matt gutman, thanks so much. dr. jennifer ashton joins us now, and, dr. ashton, results are in from moderna's first phase of the vaccine tested in the u.s. for the coronavirus. the results are very promising. tell us what this means and how it affects the timeline, if at all. >> so, amy, when they're looking at these early data from these vaccine clinical trials they're looking primarily for two things, safety, number one, and efficacy. we heard from matt's piece there was a good antibody or immune response with so-called neutralizing or blocking
7:13 am
antibodies. now they're going to be following those volunteers for up to a year to look for long-term safety and durability. how long will that protection last? when they go into phase 2 they'll increase their numbers, 600 volunteers. phase 3 which they said they will be starting this summer along with other developing groups around the world will then look at 30,000 volunteers. so they're collecting a lot of data. they're following safety and efficacy and, remember, the manufacturing would have to start at the end of 2020 to make millions and millions of doses. >> wow. so much work ahead. all right, thanks so much. we appreciate your time, dr. jen ashton. george. okay, amy. thanks. the latest now from the white house where president trump launched a campaign-style speech from the rose garden yesterday and displayed a defiant approach to the black lives matter movement in interviews. our white house correspondent cecilia vega has the story. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning,
7:14 am
george. president trump attempting to shift the focus once again, and he says when it comes to police shootings of black americans, white people have it worse. it was a question president trump did not like. asked why black people are still dying at the hands of law enforcement -- >> so are white people. so are white people. what a terrible question to ask. so are white people. more white people, by the way, more white people. >> reporter: the reality, minorities are killed at disproportionate rates and black americans are more than twice as likely to be shot and killed by police than white americans. as he slips in the polls and clings to his base, the president stoking racial division even more. asked whether he understands why for so many the confederate flag is a painful reminder of slavery -- >> people love it and i know people that like the confederate flag and they're not thinking about slavery. i just think it's freedom of speech. >> reporter: and in an interview with a conservative website, he jumped head on into another flash point. >> y'all, she got a gun. >> reporter: the white couple who pointed ns at black lives matter protesters marching outside their st. louis home.
7:15 am
>> they were going to be beat up badly and the house was going to be totally ransacked and probably burned down. >> reporter: that is not what the video shows. this as he faces growing criticism for his handling of the pandemic. with covid cases surging, the president held what was billed as a rose garden press conference on china. instead he delivered a more than hour long rambling campaign-style speech. >> biden wants to defund our military. >> reporter: mentioning joe biden at least 30 times in a long list of baseless claims. dr. anthony fauci came off the sidelines to deliver this message. >> i think you can trust me, but i would stick with respected medical authorities who have a track record of telling the truth. >> reporter: now, in the latest installment of the administration attacking the nation's top infectious disease expert, the president's trade adviser peter navarro who has no known medical expertise writes in a "usa today" op-ed that, quote, dr. fauci has a good
7:16 am
bedside manner with the public but that he's been wrong about everything i've interacted with him on and he listens to fauci, quote, only with skepticism and caution. this, george, as the white house has denied there is a campaign to treat fauci as a political rival. >> the president did score a victory of sorts in alabama yesterday. >> he did. his former attorney general jeff sessions lost there. he was hoping to return to his old senate seat he had for 20 years. that is now not happening. a race where president trump was front and center. he's still very angry with sessions for having recused himself in the russia investigation so he endorsed sessions' opponent, former auburn university football coach tommy tuberville. tuberville now goes on to face senate democrat doug jones in the general election, george. >> cecilia vega, thanks very much. robin? all right, george. as we continue here, we have the latest on the health scare for ruth bader ginsburg. the supreme court justice hospitalized overnight for a possible infection. this two months after she was
7:17 am
treated for a benign gallbladder condition. mary bruce is outside the supreme court with much more. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, robin. well, the 87-year-old liberal justice is waking up this morning in a baltimore hospital after undergoing an endoscopic procedure to treat a possible infection. now we're told she is resting comfortably, and will stay in the hospital for several days to receive antibiotics. this is ginsburg's second hospitalization this year and has had many health challenges and survived four bouts of cancer. any health issues, though, have not prevented her from continuing to do her job without interruption but her health, though, is a source of constant concern and deep anxiety for many democrats who fear what a potential vacancy could do to the balance of the courts. now when asked about her yesterday, the president says he wishes ginsburg the best and hopes she's feeling better. george? >> we all hope that. mary bruce, thanks very much. coming up more of my interview with mary trump. she talks about the family
7:18 am
dynamic that she says is malignantly dysfunctional and calls her grandfather a sociopath and how she says it affected the president. and new fallout for nick cannon, fired after making racist and anti-semitic comments. we'll have his response ahead. but first, let's go to ginger. >> and we've seen records fall. the high temperatures from san antonio to midland, texas to miami, that hit another record of 97, their fifth 97 of the year. they have never done that in recorded history, and now that concentrated area that will see the heat advisories from new mexico over to mississippi including arkansas, could see more records fall today within those numbers. the heat feels-like is going to expand and make it hot all the way from philadelphia that will feel like almost 100 by the end of the weekend to the low to mid-90s in new york city. your local weather in 30 seconds. first though the heat index forecast sponsored by subaru. sored by subaru.

7:32 am
>> you say he is a sociopath. >> yes. >> what do you mean by that? >> he had no empathy. he was incredibly driven in a way that turned other people, including his children, his wife, into pawns to be used to his own ends. if somebody could be of service to him, then he would use them. if they couldn't be, he excised them, and in my father's case tragically he was not of use. >> you write donald following the lead of my grandfather and with the complicity of silence and inaction of his siblings destroyed my father. >> yeah, that was hard to write. much harder to witness. >> you say that was a hard sentence to write. i left out the next sentence. >> okay. >> i can't let him destroy my country. >> ah, yes. that sounds pretty arrogant, so let me explain what i mean.
7:33 am
i feel, as i write in the book, that there are so many parallels between the circumstances in which my family operated and in which this country is now operating. i saw firsthand what focusing on the wrong things, elevating the wrong people can do, the collateral damage that can be created by allowing somebody to live their lives without accountability. if i can do anything to change the narrative and to tell the truth, i need to do that because i don't believe the american people had the entire truth four years ago. >> why didn't you write the book four years ago? >> i thought long and hard about saying something. i knew that if i had said anything i would have been
7:34 am
painted as a disgruntled, disinherited niece who just wanted her 15 minutes which obviously is being said about me now. >> that's exactly what the white house says, that it's a book of falsehoods, basically you're lying for money. >> if i had wanted money or revenge i would have done this ten years ago when it was infinitely safer but neither one of those things interested me. >> you do write that he once had a spark of kindness. >> yeah. i think he did. one of the unforgivable things my grandfather did to donald was he severely restricted the range of human emotion that was accessible to him, which makes it -- >> what does that mean? >> it means that certain feelings were not allowed.
7:35 am
>> like? >> sadness, the impulse to be kind, the impulse to be generous. those things that my grandfather found superfluous, unmanly. >> your father got very ill, deathly ill, and you get a phone call from your grandfather. >> i remember that conversation verbatim. my grandfather got on the phone, he said, your dad's sick. is it serious? he's in the hospital but it's not serious. okay. but, you know, why am i calling you at 10:00 on a saturday night if it's not serious, i was thinking to myself. i said, is it his heart? he had open heart surgery three years earlier at the age of 39. and he said, yes, it's his heart and i said, well, then it is serious.
7:36 am
yes, it's serious, but don't worry about it. call your mother in the morning. and as i found out two minutes later when i called my mother to find out what was going on, my father had died two hours earlier. >> more or less alone. >> completely alone. obviously with strangers surrounding him but no family. >> you write that his brother went to the movies. >> yes. yeah, that shocked even me when i heard about it. you know, it was bad enough -- it was probably worse, honestly, that my dad's parents just sat in the library in the house waiting for a phone call. i will never know why they didn't go to the hospital to be with their son who was clearly dying. so maybe it isn't surprising that donald didn't think he needed to be there. maybe that would have looked bad to his father.
7:37 am
and maybe sitting around waiting for the phone call was too burdensome. i don't know, but, you know, i've often wondered what movie did he go to see that seemed more compelling than sitting with his dying brother, but i'll never know. >> for many years after your father died you were taken care of by the trump family. >> uh-huh. >> then fred trump dies and you have the impasse. >> yeah. i just want to clarify something. you say taken care of. the sense in which that's true is no different from the sense in which it's true for anybody else in my family. >> when it was all settled, when the lawsuit was done, did you think it was a fair settlement? >> no.
7:38 am
but i didn't have enough information to understand in what way it wasn't fair, and at the time -- again, it's a very long time ago and i was very close with my grandmother so a lot of it for me was wrapped up in the, quite honestly, devastation i felt when she let us go so easily because of money, so that was much more important to me than the other side of it and it certainly made the dealing with the money issues harder, because -- >> but it was all about the money, wasn't it? >> i'm a trump, you know. everything is about money in this family, but i'm also different from them and for me
7:39 am
what i understood and one of the reasons it was so devastating was that money stood in for everything else. it was literally the only currency the family trafficked in. >> your brother is not happy with the book. >> i believe that my brother is entitled to his privacy and his opinion and i am completely supportive of whatever relationship he has with my family and whatever choices he makes. >> this is a hard question but i'm going to ask it anyway. is writing the book an extension of the dysfunction of the family? >> probably. you know, i didn't write it as a form of therapy or anything like that. in fact, i would have preferred not to write it.
7:40 am
it was quite difficult, and i sometimes feel i would have been better off not knowing some of the things i now know. >> she packed a lot into the book and we're going to have a lot more tomorrow with mary trump. >> all right. she certainly has a lot to say, george. coming up next that growing backlash for nick cannon, fired overnight after making anti-semitic remarks. we'll be right back. you are. cause frosted mini wheats are made to fill people up.

8:33 am
residue built up on the skin, so just being exposed to that, and also understanding from a doctor's perspective the critical importance of daily hygiene on health, i wanted to create something that solved the no-shower problem, and epic wipes is what came out of that. so as you can see they're quite large, you can use two hands to get the job done. i spent a year working on the formulation so that they're completely nontoxic, they leave no sticky residue. they're naturally anti-bacterial, and they're also made from bamboo so they're biodegradable. >> that's great. >> they're also designed to tear into perfect strips. so, you know, if you are with someone, and you wanted to share or you want to save some for later, they come in resealable packages as well. >> all right. that's fantastic. it is so terrific to hear your story of success. it is a great idea.
8:34 am
