can't go any further. u.s. authorities making them wait there, sometimes for day. >> reporter: their wait continues in what will be a monumental week for u.s. immigration. on thursday, title 42 ends. the trump era health policy that allowed authorities to immediately deport most migrants. when it ends, tens of thousands currently waiting in mexico can apply for asylum. authorities say they're preparing for a spike in migrant crossings, upwards of 10,000 per day. in response, the administration opening additional facilities to process migrants, adding immigration officers, even sending 1,500 active duty troops to help bolster the response. >> we've been preparing for quite sometime and we are ready. >> reporter: no one knows by how much or even if migrant crossings will jump after thursday. some though not waiting to cross. what do you want to do on the other side? you want to study? >> reporter: now, under title 42, most migrants were quickly deported to mexico without facing legal consequence.

7:12 am
>> i've acquired a heck of a lot of wisdom. i know more than the vast majority of the people. i'm more experienced than anybody who's ever run for the office. >> reporter: trump is also receiving higher marks on the economy. majority of americans now say the former president did a better job handling the economy than biden has so far. but trump faces his own political head winds, too. a majority of americans say he should face charges over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election. but of that 18% say they would still vote for trump over biden even if he is charged. >> god bless you all. >> reporter: the gop nomination appears to be trump's to lose. he has more than twice as much support as his closest rival, florida governor ron desantis. his big challenge will be how to take on trump outalienating his loyal supporters. >> figure out how to do this. >> reporter: internal recordings obtained by abc news show it's something desantis agonized over when he ran for governor in 2018.
7:13 am
>> i have to frame it in a way that's not gonna piss off all his voters. i support his agenda, in terms of what he's been able to do. if i have a disagreement, i talk to him in private. >> reporter: now, desantis isn't technically a candidate yet, but sure is acting like one. sources tell us he is likely to skip an exploratory committee and insteadive straight into a run. expected to announce his candidacy sometimes next month, george. >> right now in our poll, both desantis and trump leading president biden. >> reporter: george, a lot can change between now and november 2024 but these numbers are stunning. in a hypothetical matchup, donald trump leads president trump 49% to 42%. governor desantis also leading with similar results. just a sign that so far this race is shaping up to be more about president biden than his competitors. the biden campaign this morning is dismissing these poll numbers saying biden will use wisdom to win a second term. >> okay, mary.

[ cheering ]
8:32 am
great job! they are all here for you. we're gonna just walk around here. here you go. mike, look at this. incredible. we all know how wonderful you are. but we want america to hear your story. take a look right there. we're gonna check it out. >> in the mean time, mr. johnson will be watching her class. >> mr. johnson the janitor? >> reporter: on abbott elementary, the custodian is called to sub in for teachers. >> go home and tell your parents what i taught you kids. >> reporter: going to subin. at plymouth middle school in minnesota, mike peterson is now a frequent substitute teacher. >> certain district, i started 29 years ago working as a night person. while i was doing nights i was going to school.
8:33 am
>> reporter: having served in the national guard peterson became the first in his family to earn a college degree, all while he worked his way up to director of the school's custodial program. after retiring in 2021, he decided his work at the school wasn't done quite yet. >> initially i thought he came back as a custodian but then realizing he had a class and he came back as a substitute teacher. i was so impressed. >> when we were coming out of the pandemic we needed substitute teachers. we were desperate. >> reporter: according to the bureau of labor statistics substitute teachers cover over 30 million teacher absences in k-12 schools. 20% of requests for substitutes go unfilled. >> i would say he was a teacher before he actually became a licensed teacher. and so it started with building those relationships with students and it carried on into the classroom. he connects more with the kids. he's more willing to talk to us and not just sit there and be like, oh, i have to baby-sit these kids.
8:34 am
>> he's always in a good mood. i have never seen him in a bad mood. he treats us like family. he treats us like his own. we are very thankful. >> reporter: so are his colleagues. >> mike has gone out of his way to help me in my job. i see that in a lot of what he does with other people. >> it's almost like the house that mike built, from the boiler room, the paint on the walls. 30 years at a school you get to create bonds. he considers us family. he was one of the reasons i decided to go back to school and finish up my degree. just made me think, do you know what? if mr. peterson can go back to school, why can't i do it? >> reporter: as he walks the halls of plymouth middle school, everyone knows his name. >> mike peterson is just one of those people that continually give and help out in any way possible. >> i have so much appreciation, love and respect for him. i don't even think he knows how
8:35 am
much of an impact he really has on me. >> never too late to give back. that's what he's doing. >> reporter: but to mr. peterson, he sees it as just being there for the people who are always there for him. >> why not help your friends? it's my family. [ cheers ] >> reporter: this community is your family. what would you like to say to your family right now? >> never stop. go into it. i am here for you to help you succeed. and all the teachers that i have worked with, they're there for you. that's what i like to introduce for the kids having some issues. when i was a kid i had some issues, but i have learned to go. did i stumble? yes. but i kept going and going. and tell you the truth, through that i have been successful. i think i have the best building. i enjoy working.
8:36 am
it's one of those things, coming here. it is an adventure every day in the classroom. >> reporter: that is spoken like a true teacher, my friend. right, guys? [ cheers ] we're gonna let you take a breather. we're gonna give you some more surprises. so we want to make sure that you know just how much you're appreciated. the minneapolis foundation works to bring teachers from diverse backgrounds and unique experiences, like yourself, into classrooms to help address those teacher shortages. and they, bring it out, they are making a $10,000 donation in your name to the foundation.

[ cheers ] look at that! ace hardware store thought you might want to add a few things to your tool kit. can you put it to good use? yeah? mike, all of these people, this whole community, everything we're doing here. how are you feeling right now in this moment? did we get you? did we surprise you? >> you surprised me. i feel gratitude. you know? i feel all of this is helping not only the kids that i love working with, but my friends, teachers. people that want to sub, come on in. the water is sometimes warm, sometimes cool, but it's a new adventure.
8:38 am
i think everybody needs a new adventure. these kids need help. i love if they can't figure out stuff, that i can sit down and help them. it's the one -- if i could only help just one, like i wrote, like batman going to the flash. save one, then save another. if i can sit down and work with them, that's what i'm here for. >> reporter: we are so glad you're here. you saved so many. you've done such a great job. we all appreciate you.

we're back with actor and director andrew mccarthy who you know from "pretty in pink" and more. >> so many more. >> "pretty in pink" who didn't grow up with that? decades ago he decided to walk hundreds of miles in northern spain. he then took the trek again with his son and wrote a book about it called "walking with sam." andrew, thank you very much for joining us.
8:42 am
we really appreciate you. you walked hundreds of miles. that is a huge commitment. you did it decades ago, but then you decided to do it again with your son. what was the difference the second time around? >> well, the first time it changed my life. it changed my place in the world. i was a young successful actor and then i didn't really know what was going on so i walked across spain and changed my place in the world. so my son, as he was cusping manhood, i thought it might be a good thing for him, too. get his feet under him, literally. and i wanted our relationship to change and morph into an adult one. it really had that effect. >> i loved you were talking about it. i just want to read what you said. it takes a while to see parents as real people and you believed you needed to reframe the way you looked at him, to see him as his own guy. he is a different person than you were. it took this journey to do that, to give us space to see that he
8:43 am
isn't you. >> i think we do that as parents. we project ourselves on to our kids. they kind of look like us. they kind of behave like us, so they must be responding like us. or feeling things that we do. i really discovered that he's quite his own guy. for him to allow me to see him as opposed to bolting out the door. for him to see me. so we could gain a certain trust as adults. when i left home at 17, i never really saw my dad again. that was the end of our relationship. i didn't want that to happen with my kids. it was a way of putting a baseline under us. >> what a gift. >> it was a real gift for me. >> it really is. it's an amazing story and journey you had with your son. you were isolated. you were out in the elements for weeks at a time. what was that experience like? >> it's not like you're on the appalachian trail where you have your whole world on your back. you're in society, walking through villages and towns. you are under the blistering spanish sun.
8:44 am
it really plays with your mind a little bit. you are sort of revealed to yourself all your good points and bad, and his. [ laughter ] and he sees mine. that whole experience, it was just sort of revealing to us about who we were. >> you did have your cell phones. >> what's interesting about that, they kind of -- some people go, no, we're not having any cell phones, nothing. they just receded and fell into their natural place. at the beginning we were checking our phones. after a few weeks you're much more in sync with the earth and yourself. you go the whole day and go, wait, i haven't looked at my phone. there was something really nice about getting a natural rhythm. the walking rhythm is the natural rhythm we should be moving and thinking. we've gotten so far away from it. we default to that every five seconds. to encounter yourself along, there's a lot going on up there emotionally and mentally that we avoid. >> and probably learned so much about each other.
8:45 am
from flaming hot chee relationships. >> we did. we learned so much. we saw so much. at the beginning i was sort of guiding. then we were walking together. by the end he was sort of dragging me along. the natural evolution of a life time condensed in 500 miles. >> it's hard to believe your movie "class." 40 years. >> yeah. >> 40 years ago. it's unbelievable. after all these decades, how does it feel for you to reunite with other members of the brat pack, as we call them? >> yeah. when i wrote this book about the brat pack couple years ago i realized, i know what i felt. what did everybody else feel? i never talked to anybody about it. i went back and looked up the old gang. i haven't seen rob, emileio and demi in 30 years. to realize the affection we have for each other maybe that we didn't have in our youth.
8:46 am
we were so young and competitive and scared. now we had so much affection and fondness for each other, and for our own youth. we are the sort of avatars for a certain generation's youth. >> 100%. >> we've come to represent that to people. >> in real life you do look the same. as robin said, we all want your secret. i thought it was interesting, i was reading that you didn't love the term brat pack when it was first coined. now you get it and you understand that we, who lived by your movie, it's a term of affection. >> it has become an affectionate term for a moment in pop culture for sure. i'm more than the sum of my parts because i'm a member of the brat pack, you know? at the beginning, you're right. we hated it. who wants to be called a brat? in a pack? it's amazing what time does. 180 degree difference now. it is a wonderful affectionate term.
8:47 am
>> well, we, in our youth, thank you. we thank you. andrew, great to see you, as always. thank you so much. >> so wonderful. >> "walking with sam" is out tomorrow. make sure you go get yourself a copy. ginger? >> thank you, michael. stanley cup playoffs heating up with golden knights taking on the oilers. the series is tied. puck drops tonight 8:30 p.m. eastern on espn. checking out now a little closer to home. drew: here's your accuweather forecast. an isolated shower this morning giving way to brighter skies this afternoon with temperatures mainly in the 60's. here's the accuweather 7-day, warmer weather by the end of the week. by the weekend, hot. coming up, senator amy klobuchar on her new book "the joy of politics." she is here live. we'll be right back with more gma.
8:49 am
8:50 am
read the subtitle, surviving cancer, campaign, pandemic and an insurrection and other curve balls. what didn't you deal with in the last four years? >> america dealt with all of this. so i thought, this is a good time to write about not just lamenting the set backs. we've all had them. people have lost their jobs. they lost loved ones. their divisiveness, political divisiveness, violence. yet america keeps going forward. to my story is about how i went forward through the breast cancer and my husband almost dying of covid. just looking for those moments of joy and rejoicing in the come back. >> i have to say it seems pretty hard to find the joy in politics these days. how do you do it? >> i do it by looking at the good. we are only as good as the people who show up to push us tk
8:51 am
lping a veteges si ail finally that iavwoed o for years to bring down the cost ofreor msu that we make clear that we're gonna talk to people we don't always agree with for the betterment of this country. that that's courage in politics. even the breast cancer, when i went public with my diagnosis actually on this show with robin, i had tons of people write me. i'm finally going into get an exam. the outcome in some cases where they found out they had breast cancer and they followed up with me and said they got treatment and they're 100% good. >> there are always ways you can make a difference in someone's life. >> exactly. >> close to your home town? >> i grew up in plymouth. went to the schools there. i could just see mr. peterson in my mind. custodian turned teacher. that's doing good. >> you ran for president before. we have a new poll out, abc news and washington post. some pretty tough messages there for president biden.
8:52 am
he's got the lowest approval bh do.olosing lots of concerns about his a dyoy toou constituhat say, i kin i don't if i can go for it again? >> president biden has gotten us through the pandemic. he's gotten us to a much better place in our economy. he has ruled with a steady hand. no one wants to go back to that chaos of donald trump. people don't want to have that divide. what i say to him, this is a good man. he deserves your support. >> we've had tragedies again over the weekend 199th mass shooting in the country. how frustrating is it for you to sit in the senate and know that nothing can be done? >> we did make a start, and you know that with the gun safety laws. we worked really hard and finally took on the nra including a number of republicans. to me that's the beginning. when i think of the fact that 18-year-olds are buying assault weapons off the internet.
8:53 am
that's what happened in uvalde, texas. that's what happened in buffalo. people gunned down in a grocery store and school, little kids. it's time to do more. to me that means banning the purchase of assault weapons. that means doing more when people are clearly mentally ill. they shouldn't be able to go out and get a gun.wh we sanng, but there must be more work. we just can't allow our babies to be killed like that. a little girl in a mall in texas just gunned down by some guy that gets out of his car and starts shooting. that's not okay in america. we believe in freedom. there's a lot of law abiding gun owners in my state. we love to hunt in my state. it's a big thing. but you have to make sure who has those guns? >> amen to that. amy klobuchar, thank you. we'll be right back. for likes or followers. their path isn't for the casually curious. and that's what makes it matter the most when they find it. the exact thing that can change the world.
