8:02 am
presidential race, saying he should pull the plug after his controversial comments about john mccain. the "des moines register" says the billionaire is preventing qualified candidates from being heard. it wrote, quote, trump has been more focused on promoting himself and his brand than in addressing problems facing the nation. the paper added, the best way donald trup can serve his country is by apologizing to mccain and leaving the campaign. i spoke to trump for last night's "cbs evening news," and i asked if the controversial attacks on senator mccain are hurting his campaign? >> look all i know is i will do a great job for the veterans. john mccain has a proven record of failing with the veterans. i can't tell you -- polls will be coming out fairly soon, i guess, then maybe we'll have another conversation and i'll be able to tell you. i have respect for polls and polling. >> so if polling says this was a disaster for you, you will do what? >> well i think then i'd
8:03 am
probably -- i don't know if i made a mistake. i have to get the word out about the veterans and the way they're being treated. >> you didn't do this to get the word out about veterans. you did this because you were not happy with john mccain because he criticized people supporting you on the immigration issue. >> that's true. >> you called him crazy. >> that's true. that's how it started. >> that whole comment is what started this. >> yeah. >> trump says he's not interested in a third party run. senator lindsey graham joined mccain monday discussing the iran nuclear deal. graham is defending his long-time capitol hill colleague. >> graham recently retired from the air force reserve. we're pleased to have him back in the studio. good morning. >> good morning. >> explain what you think this donald trump phenomena is about? is it celebrity or is he saying something that has a response within your party? >> i hope there's not much of a
8:04 am
market for slandering p.o.w.s in my party. i don't need a poll to say it's not good to say john mccain is a loser because he was captured at a time of war. it's not good to say 11 million people are rapists and druggists when they're not. this has turned into a circus. >> damaging the party. >> i don't care if he drops out. stay in the race. just stop being a jack as. you don't have to run for president and be the world ooes biggest jackass. >> senator mccain says he doesn't have to apologize for me. >> i'm not looking for him to drop out. i'm looking for him to be a responsible member of the 16-person primary and stop saying stuff like this. the world is falling apart. we're becoming greece. the ayatollah is on the verge of having a nuclear weapon and you're slandering and slamming everybody. run for president but don't be the world's biggest jackass. >> what's the reaction you're
8:05 am
getting to people calling him jackass. >> a lot of people are offended. the jackasses are offended. i've had it. john is my friend. he's not a perfect person. he was tortured for 5 1/2 years. when they ask trump, well do you know what he went through in jail. no, it doesn't matter. it does matter. it really does matter. >> why do you think, senator graham, he's rising in the polls? >> i think the beginning of the end has arrived because he's crossed a line with the american people that won't be tolerated. there's frustration with the border but very little frustration regarding those captured at a time of war. this is the beginning of the end for tronlddonald trump. >> in another poll he did fall after making those comments about senator mccain. trump is in your home state today, in south carolina where there's a large population of
8:06 am
veterans. how do you think he'll be received? >> the motto of our state is smiling faces, beautiful places. i don't think he fits that motto. i'm sure there's some that will say keep it up donald. i think most south carolinians will be offended. we're pretty serious people. >> how is this side show going to end? >> his poll numbers begin to drop everybody is condemning him. thank goodness everybody in the field i think except one has distanced themselves from him. it ends when the american people say enough. >> have you said anything to him, to donald trump? >> no. >> you haven't called him and said knock it off? >> what good would that do calling donald trump? i'm more worried about the iran nuclear deal than donald trump. john mccain said i'm having to talk about donald trump rather than iran on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon because of a horribly bad deal. the president went to the u.n. instead of his own congress.
8:07 am
that's a sign of weakness disrespect and a bad deal. the head of the force that killed our forces has been taken off the sanctions list and we can't talk about that because of donald trump. to the american people, this is a bad deal. it's going to lead to a nuclear arms race. let's move on to things that matter. >> are there enough votes in congress to override a presidential veto? >> i think there will be. a no-vote ensures that the next president, whoever he or she may be, will have leverage. if congressional sanctions are left in place, the next president can get a better deal. we can get a better deal. we must get a better deal. a yes vote takes the congressional sanctions off the table, the next president has no leverage and that's very bad for us and israel. >> why do you think the president feels so strongly about this and is convinced that this is the only deal that's possible, the best deal that's possible and the only way to stop iran from getting a nuclear weapon? what is it about this president? >> it's the neville chamberlin
8:08 am
of our time. >> neville chamberlin? >> yes. he's the neville chamberlin of our time who believes over the next 15 years iran is going to change their behavior because this deal doesn't require them to do a damn thing in terms of changing their behavior. at the end of 15 years, all inspections are lifted. here is his bet. i don't think he's a bad man. i think he misunderstand stands the world and the middle east. at the end of 15 years, they can get a nuclear weapon with no strings attached. he thinks they're going to change over the next 15 years for the better. look at the last thousand years and you'll get a good idea of what they'll do in the next 15 years. he's dangerously naive, called isil the jv team. drew a line for assad and he crossed it. nothing happened. i th deal is a natural con tin asian of a man who doesn't understand the middle east. >> you think we're becoming greece? >> when the baby boomers retire

the first ten years of becoming a father. men in the study who did not have kids lost weight. our dr. holly phillips joins us. what's going on this morning. >> this was a large study. researchers out of northwestern university looked at 10,000 men over 20 years. they focused specifically on the period of time right after men became first-time fathers. so for a man who is about circumstance feet tall after they become a father they gain 4.4 pounds. for men 6 fetal and don't live with the children they still gain 3.3 pounds. the 4.4 is if you live at home with the kids. this is in sharp contrast to men who didn't have children during the same period of time. they actually managed to lose a pound. >> four pounds doesn't seem like a lot. i think of women gaining weight because of babies. i totally get that. four pounds for a guy doesn't seem to be a lot. >> right right. in this context, it actually is

because we know that during this period of time sort of late adolescence, early adulthood, men's weight has a long-term effect on diabetes heart di cease, cancer even premature death. there's also the idea that it's much easier to prevent weight gain in the first place than to lose weight. we might be setting these men up for a tra jektjectory of long-term weight gain. >> every one of my friends, the dads say they put on weight too, their own form of sympathy with their wives or the stress of pregnancy, whatever it may be. >> absolutely. this study found the association rather than the cause. there are a number of theories behind it. some are very simple where with the new responsibilities of fatherhood you might not exercise as much. exercise goes by the wayside. there's the human garbage disposal phenomenon where parents finish whatever is on their children's plates. men are eating a lot more pizza
