la mitad cree que no debería hacerlo por su edad. tiene 80 años y es el presidente de mayor edad en haber estado en el cargo pero sus aliados le restan importancia a estos comentarios. él es un presidente activo t to run. >> he is aging everyday. >> and 6 in 10 americans including a third of republicans say that former president donald trump should not run again either, bu cada día. pero además, 6 de cada 10 estadounidenses dicen que el expresidente trump tampoco debería postularse pero las investigaciones criminales en su contra fortalecen el apoyo de los republicanos ron desantis, por ejemplo, tiene un menor apoyo en los últimos meses, él no ha atacado directamente al expresidente, pero este fin de semana lanzó u golpe. n desantis has this vailed swipe. >> he should embrace this culture of losing as in the

recent years. >> reporter: and even the abortion rights as the issue that has bee >> those justices delivered a landmark victory for protecting innocent life. >> one of several potential 2024 candidates according to social conservatives there, his former vice president mike pence, who supports a national abortion ban, criticizing his potential rival. >> i don't agree with the former president who says this is the state's only issue. >> reporter: but our poll found nearly 60% of americans said abortion should be legal nationwide and some more moderate republicans are worried the issue is already causing the gop at the ballot cost nbc news learned that the president recorded parts of his

announcement video last night at -- last week at his home in delaware in another sign he's gearing up, the president is planning to name julie rodriguez as his 2024 re-election campaign manager she is a senior advising to the president here and a granddaughter of the late labor leader ceasar chavez >> peter, thank you. we turn to the end of an era. another popular retailer going out of business, bed bath & beyond those big blue coupons well, it filed for bankruptcy yesterday. the company announcing it will begin winding down operations. here with everything we need to know, nbc's brian cheung i feel like i have been reading this headline for a while, that bed bath & beyond was in trouble. it is filing for bankruptcy. does that mean the stores are closing? >> yes that's exactly what that means i'm having flash backs of my own experiences going there. for college supplies this is a company struggling for a while as you mentioned they have been saying, look, we can't raise the money we need

last-minute, we could ultimately file for bankruptcy, which is what happened ultimately yesterday. that means tha 360 locations and 120 bye bye baby locations, also owned by the same company, will start to liquidate. starting on wednesday, you will no longer be able to use the iconic 20% off coupons we're all familiar with getting in the mail that's because the sales will be starting in the stores so pretty heavy discounts expected on may 8th, that will be the last day to use your gift cards. on may 15th, merchandise credits and customer rewards will no longer be accepted for those that have wedding registries, they will be transferring it to another platform. >> speaking of weddings, david's bridal filed for bankruptcy, as well is this something we're seeing with retailers and the country >> when you think of brands we remember, toys "r" us, sears, those are companies that went

under in the last few years. some of that is accelerated by the pandemic with the move to e-commerce. but a lot of it is the secular move to big box retailers. people don't want to go to specialized stores anymore people want to go to one stop shops where you can get all of it done. you want to get the bath towel and the diced tomatoes. you can just go to one stop to do that opposed to individual stores >> sometimes companies file for bankruptcy and then they're still around they're still open is there any chance of that? >> yeah, that is a chance. what bed bath & beyond said chapter 11 means they're reorganizing they could auction the assets to another buyer that could attempt to resurrect it. but what we know of bed bath & beyond in its current state will no longer be the state toys "r" us tried to get erected inside of macy's it just didn't work out. >> thank you appreciate it.

we have a lot more to cover. let's go over to craig and say good morning. >> good morning to you as well two separate and serious aircraft incidents in recent days have travelers on edge in this country, including an apparent bird strike that caused an american airlines engine to catch fire in the skies over ohio you are looking at that here in charlotte, north carolina, a investigation into a possible engine fire on a runway there. fortunately no one was hurt in either case. nbc's tom costello, he joins us now from reagan national airport with details on all of it. tom, good morning to you. >> reporter: craig, good morning to you bird strikes are not unusual but what is unusual is for a bird strike to take out an engine and this incident really underscores how crews, how pilots are supposed to handle these types of emergencies and also it underscores the fact that planes are designed to fly on a single engine

in columbus, ohio, on sunday some anxious minutes during takeoff. >> we lost the number 2 engine on the bird strike with high vibration. >> reporter: an engine on an american airlines flight headed for phoenix caught fire mere moments after taking off, apparently after striking a flock of canadian geese. >> everybody started panicking and freaking out. >> reporter: flight attendants prepared the cabin for an emergency landing. >> it's a good time to review that safety briefing. >> reporter: marnie took this video from her seat. >> it was truly frightening. i didn't think i was going to make it. >> reporter: also onboard, this couple just beginning their honeymoon trip. >> we could just smell like burning. >> reporter: the boeing 737 safely returned to the columbus airport. in a statement, american called the incident a mechanical issue. the faa report strikes against all types of wildlife are increasing in the u.s. more than 15,000 reported across 708 airports in 2021 alone.

>> large bird populations are increasing, so the industry is constantly grappling with this >> reporter: bird strikes became a top safety priority after 2009's "miracle on the hudson" where captain sully landed in the hudson river after losing both engines to a flock of geese everyone survived. >> experience can literally make the difference between success and failure, life and death. >> reporter: last thursday, another possible engine fire, this one on the runway just before takeoff in charlotte. passengers safely deplaned back at the gate, and the exact cause is still under investigation but aviation experts stress these two unrelated incidents should not worry travelers. >> the majority of commercial flights have two or more engines. when you think of the few, relatively few failures, it is an amazingly safe system. >> tom, it seems like these bird strikes are in the news every few months from now.

is there anything the airlines can do to better protect against them >> reporter: so ever since "the miracle on the hudson," we have seen airports come out with mitigation efforts they fire off cannons to scare the birds. they use nets. they put out feed for the birds that is birth control. they have done a lot to get the population under control by the way, it is not just birds. sometimes it is a deer it is an alligator it is a skunk out on the runwa and those can cause problems for planes trying to make off. >> wow, okay tom, thank you. all right. let's move to the -- >> wow. >> i had no idea skunks and birds >> sometimes you don't want the answer >> i didn't expect the birth control for the birds. >> neither did i. >> the nba, the playoffs the wild finish, the game between the warriors and sacramento

the weekend at queen elizabeth's favorite retreat in scotland, surprising the locals. >> how are you >> reporter: a fan taking a photo of the couple. stepping out to visit a new restaurant prince harry is set to join the rest of his family in less than two weeks. he and his wife continuing to attract distracting headlines. meghan who is not attending the may 6th coronation now publicly responding to an article tha claimed after that bombshell oprah interview two years ago she had an exchange of letters with king charles that left her unhappy about some of her allegations about unconscious bias in the royal family a spokesperson for the sussex's calling the story false and frankly ridiculous saying in part the duchess of sussex is going about her life, not thinking about conversations from two years ago related to conversations from four years ago

and we encourage the tabloid media and various royal correspondents to stop the exhausting circus that they alone are creating we did reach out to buckingham palace for comments on this story. they declined to comment and we should note the susse spokesperson didn't deny the existence of a correspondent between meghan and now kin charles. they said the reason she's staying behind is to be with the kids on coronation day, otherwise known as prince archie's 4th birthday. guys >> well, that's a good excuse. all right. >> we'll take that let's take a look at the dynamics inside the royal family with daisy mcandrew. let's talk about this back and forth about these letters that no one has actually seen the letters, but what do you make of all of it? >> i think it's really interesting that, as we just hearing, there isn't a denial these letters happened of course, within that fevered time just after the infamous

oprah interview where the allegation was that the royal family was racist, and that did huge damage to the standing of the royal family i think not just in this country but around the world so it is not surprising there was a back and forth king charles wrote to meghan expressing the sadness and meghan replied allegedly she wasn't saying this individual was racist. she was saying it was an example of unconscious bias. some would say that's slightly dancing on the head of a pin i think as far as meghan i concerned, there is a distinction between the two. >> okay. harry is coming to the coronation, that we know is this an example of doing the bare minimum or perhaps is it a sign that, you know, there is a thaw there between his father and himself. >> i think all of the optimists amongst us would be hoping this would be a sign that the frosty relationship is starting to thaw i think the relationship between

harry and his father is better and closer than it is between harry and william. at the moment, there is no sign that that relationship is on the mend we don't believe they will be seeing each other. we think harry will be coming in in a brief visit, going to the coronation and then flying back to california pretty much directly afterwards. which will be a great sadness to a lot of monarchists around the world. >> tell us about the optics. what is it going to look like? will there be an opportunity if they are sitting together somewhere, will harry be with them or somewhere else >> there have been strange reports that the seating plan during the coronation has been sorted out and that harry is allegedly going to be ten rows back from the rest of the royal family personally, i'm taking those stories with a pinch of salt i think it is a little mischief making when none of us know what

it is going to be like, whethe there is any hugs or smiles between the members of the royal family that we know do have real problems but this is such an important day, the most important day in king charles' life and harry clearly is making a real effort to come over many people sad that meghan is not joining him, but it is an elegant compromise. >> thank you. >> all right less than two weeks to the coronation all right. when we come back here, we will pass along some encouraging news about the health of oscar winner jaime fox. nearly two weeks after he was admitted to an atlanta hospital. we will have the latest on that in a live report. first, it was a historic weekend for ryan reynolds and rob mcelhenney's soccer team couldn't write a better script. >> you really couldn't ryan reynolds described soccer as the most romantic thing on earth. even if you don't know anything about sosoccer, who o doesn't la little romomance with h ryan reynolds
