>> reporter: good morning. donald trump is hoping to show he's moving into a new phase of his campaign moving past what's been a rough week after that staff shake-up, after news of low fund-raising numbers. now he plans to argue that it's hillary clinton not fighting for everyday americans. trump's turn as he looks to counter her blistering attack against him. donald trump in hillary clinton's crosshairs now ready to attack back. >> i said this time we're going to cover it point by point and we'll also cover it. i'll do a speech. >> reporter: a senior campaign source telling nbc news trump today will hit clinton on trade, terrorism, human rights, immigration and the clinton family foundation, through it all trying to counter his opponent's tuesday takedown when clinton knocked trump on the business record he boasts about. >> he's written a lot of books about business. they all seem to end at chapter 11.
7:03 am
sflr her campaign sensinge ingin nablt assuming he's at odds with his own message. >> trump ties are made in china. trump suits in mexico. i would love for him to explain how all that fits with his talk about america first. >> reporter: trump's comeback -- >> hunt is only right about one thing. i understand debt and how to handle it. i made a fortune with debt. debt for this country is a disaster and obama as piled it on and she's been there watching. >> reporter: his team's rapid responses typical in most political campaigns missing from trump's until now. a sign of change after this week's staff shake-up. the candidate trying to prove his campaign is get more professional after struggling to raise money in may looking to get more big money donors onboard including some of wall street's wealthiest. at a fund-raiser overnight and shore up support among skeptical evangelicals at a meeting in manhattan where he appeared to question his rival's faith. >> hillary in terms of religion? >> she's been in the public eye for years and years and yet there's no -- nothing out there. >> reporter: clinton a longtime
7:04 am
methodist. >> i'm a person of faith. i am a christian. >> reporter: all of it previewing the general election fight this fall. both candidates clearly ready for battle. >> this is different. this is much nastier. i cannot believe it. i thought it would be, you know -- actually you would think it would be easier. >> reporter: clinton meanwhile is set to head to washington, d.c. and then deliver another speech later today, not so much hitting trump but promoting her own policies on the economy, and that is a topic where she trails trump, matt and savannah, with new polling showing more voters trust him on the economy. >> thank you. >> let's bring in our experts. guys, good morning to you. this is day one of trump 2.0. he got rid of his campaign manager who was rather controversial and trying to act more like a professional campaign. is this going to calm the nerves of republicans? >> it doesn't take much to calm their nerves because they're doing baby steps. they're doing the most basic of things which they weren't doing
7:05 am
before. it's an improvement. republicans are so debt december -- desperate, washington republicans, a lot of donors, so desperate to have someone to rally around that if they continue to improve baby step by baby step, they won't catch up to clinton campaign in terms of structure but it will calm nerves. >> he goes out yesterday and questions her faith and even though she's spoken on numerous occasions about her faith. so it sounds like misinformation. why is that on message? >> i said baby steps. they did ten other things yesterday that you would say that's not the way a formal organized traditional campaign would do it. but they did have some improvements. they did respond to her speech. they did have this meeting organized with evangelicals and doing basic things. they'll never catch up to where the clinton campaign is. if they do better -- the trick for trump is to convince people he can win. the national polls have spooked so many to say this thing could be over. trump needs to get back in the game. that kind of stuff helps him. >> let's go to steve on those
7:06 am
numbers. yes, the national poll is split with republicans. we saw three battleground state polls you have races that are dead heats after clinton had some of the best few weeks of her campaign and trump has had some of the worst few weeks. how do you explain those numbers? >> it's amazing. if you took the 2012 electoral map, obama versus romney and you kept it the same, if you're trump, if you can flip ohio, pennsylvania and florida, you're the next president. for all of the trouble he's had, dead even in ohio and pennsylvania. florida is bad news for him. he's down in this thing. i think for republicans, a lot of them look at this and say if they run a competent campaign, imagine where they would be. >> how worried is the clinton campaign about just that? as you just said and savannah just said, great weeks for hillary clinton, terrible weeks for donald trump and they look at those polls in those states, how do they explain that? >> and also hallie just said it. the poll on the economy, hillary clinton gives that speech yesterday. she's trying to discredit trump on the economy. you look up and see in that poll who do you trust more on the
7:07 am
economy? trump leading clinton by eight points. they're aware of the challenge. that's where the speeches like you saw yesterday from hillary clinton are coming from. >> that poll had him ahead on the issue of terrorism against clinton. there are some rays of light for donald trump. what did you think of clinton's speech yesterday? she did this point-by-point takedown of him on the economy. was it effective? >> hillary clinton has a slogan to say "i'm with her." clinton wants to make this about don't be about him. i thought she was pretty good at saying some of the vulnerabilities trump has on position on the economy and on the record but, as steve said, there's indications this is one of the tougher issues for her and it's a big issue for voters. economy will be big. she'll keep talking about it. trump needs to fight back and convince people that her record on the economy isn't what voters are looking for. >> real quickly, can you put in perspective the fund-raising numbers right now? trump with $1.3 million on hand at the end of june compared to
7:08 am
$42 million for hillary clinton. have you seen anything like that? >> we've never seen a gap like this. you would say impossible to win in the fall. you would have looked at this situation heading into the primary campaign and said impossible to become the nominee and he did. >> he needs to write a big check or start working a lot hard tore raise money. >> to write a check to get others to write a check. to say he's in so we're all in. or raise money. other people say that guy has enough money. i don't need to give it. it can cut both ways. >> thanks as always. let's turn to that severe weather threatening millions of americans today. serious stuff, al. >> it really is. we're concerned about this. especially over a wide swath. we're seeing one area of severe weather making its way from iowa into parts of northern illinois and central indiana. but we're also looking at this afternoon and into this evening. we've got low pressure moving into the plains. above average highs reaching triple digits plus a lot of
7:09 am
moisture coming out of the gulf. that's going to fuel the formation of very strong storms. we've got morning storms this morning in chicago. a wind and tornado threat later. a strong risk of severe weather. straight line wind gusts of 75 miles per hour. tornadoes likely from just south of milwaukee, chicago, indianapolis, ft. wayne, cincinnati, columbus. what i'm really concerned about a lot of folks live and work in high rises in these major metropolitan areas. what you want to do if there's a tornado warning or straight line winds, get away from the windows. move to your building's core. take cover in interior stairways and stay away from the elevators. because if you get into those elevators, you may be looking at power outages that get you stuck in there and you can't get out. it's a real dangerous situation late this afternoon into this evening. we'll be watching this. and there's the threat of flooding as well. a lot going on today. we'll talk about the heat a little bit later. >> you don't often sound the alarm like that. we'll take that seriously, al.
