6:01 am
pulled from the hudson river as her kayak capsizes. and suiting up. dylan scores a role on the hit show "suits" earning one line. >> i couldn't turn it down. now i'm nervous! >> will it be stardom for dylan or will the scene end up on the cutting room floes? the forecast a little overcast "today," sunday august 9th 2015. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today." live from studio 1-a in rockefeller plaza. welcome to "today" on this sunday morning. i'm erica hill. >> i'm craig melvin alongside francis rivera and dylan drier. we better enjoy you while we can. >> i thought you were on hiatus. >> yeah. >> i guess maybe like 30
6:02 am
minutes. >> more like 15 second. i love the show and it was so fun to be on the set. >> we'll get to that in a bit. the top story now. mounting turmoil for donald trump this morning. a key member of his inner circle is out. it's not clear whether he quit or was fired. kelly o'donnell has more for us. kelly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, craig. after a sold out three-day miniconference known as the red state gathering. some of the conservatives here told us they were disappointed to not hear from donald trump directly. as you might expect trump has plenty more to say. the party went on without donald trump. this tailgate bash part of the conservative convention, would have been trump's place to rail against political correctness. instead top presidential candidates fired away at him. >> mr. trump ought to apologize.
6:03 am
>> jeb brush addressed the controversy directly on the attack on megyn kelly after she challenged trump's comments about women. >> come on. give me a break. i mean are we -- do we want to win? do we want to insult 53% of all voters? >> trump's invitation had been revoked, but questions about him persisted. other candidates like mike huckabee were tired of talking trump. >> i'm running for president. i'm not running for the social media kritdic for somebody else running for president. >> trump's turmoil turned inward saturday. a new fight turned into public view. long time advisor robert stone is out. he turned in his resignation letter. more controversy the campaign
6:04 am
claimed they firer mr. stone. saying roger wanted to use it as his benefit. >> when he becomes the president, of course his tone will change. right now if you go after him, he's sending in the missiles. >> reporter: and that has been the donald trump method when he's attacked he attacks back. so some of the candidates have been reluctant to go after him. criticizing his words, perhaps, but not wanting to discourage him from participating in the race. many of the conservatives we've talked to say the people should decide his fate over time and not organizations like the party or some of the official groups. craig? >> kelly o'donnell for us this morning in atlanta. thank you. donald trump will be among chuck todd's guests later this morning on "meet the press." chuck, good morning. >> good morning, erica. >> these are far from the most inflammatory things donald trump has ever said.
6:05 am
yet, the reaction seems to be different. why is the tide turning at this point? the tone or the target? >> i think it's a little bit of everything. i think it's the accumulation number one. if you look he's been growing the amount of people he's insulted over the years starting during the birther movement moving to disparaging hispanics with the comments about mexicans and veterans with john mccain women with megyn kelly. i think it adds to the angst of conservatives that megyn kelly is the star on the fox news. put it together it has a last straw feel to it. the republican party, having many leaders, knows that trump is consuming them right now. at a time when they have got to figure out how to unite. they're demographically challenged going up against democrats in '16. >> kelly talked about the fact in the past any targets have been reluctant to respond in any way to donald trump because he
6:06 am
attacks back. that seems to be waning a little bit, too. jeb bush was clear when he said the real issue here is that he could push aside voters specifically women voters. how much of that is a part of the equation at this point? >> i think that's the issue now. it's sort of all the candidates many of them i don't want to say all because not all are taking direct shots but behind the scenes they say this. at first, it was trump is trump. they think the american people swing voters would separate trump from the republican party. now there's a concern that trump's problems will now bleed into the republican party here and start to stain them even for the long-term. i think that's what jeb bush is talking about. i think many of these candidates are saying to themselves if donald trump's words are used against them if they're the nominee think jeb bush and scott walker. what they said in this moment will matter. >> there's been a lot made about the phone call that happened between former president clinton
6:07 am
and donald trump. in recent days both camps denied the phone call the presidential race was discussed the all. it hasn't silenced the speculation. the timing here is kind of interesting. what do you make of the renewed buzz about the call? >> there's plenty of conservatives who believe that donald trump isn't a real conservative. he doesn't really hold true conservative positions, at least on things like health care and even on taxes who think that he's nothing more than some sort of democratic plan. the clinton phone call feeds into that narrative, whatever that phone call was about, and i think that it's sort of just nervousness. here he is he sort of did a belly flop into the republican pool and suddenly dominating the race. so conservatives who would wish somebody else would do it are wondering how did it happen? why is he doing this? they're going to conspiracy. >> all right, chuck. thank you. we'll see you again in a little bit when donald trump joins you
6:08 am
on "meet the press." police in texas asked the fbi to join the investigation into friday's deadly shooting of a 19-year-old college football player. a case that sparked a fire storm of outrage online as a critical new piece of evidence emerges. mark potter has that story. >> reporter: in a security camera video from outside a car dealership in arlington, texas shooting victim christian taylor can seen jumping on a vehicle and breaking out the windshield which police say he did before his fatal encounter with officers. later on the tape he can be seen driving his vehicle through a locked gate there and then in the distance driving through a glass door on to the showroom floor. >> reporter: shortly afterward, police can be seen arriving a the dealership with taylor room
