so they think -- their confidence is sky high and you saw in the clip in peter's piece, she's as confident as i've seen her as a candidate. donald trump is doing what a lot of candidates do. not just donald trump. they lose a debate and they pretend they didn't lose and try to bully their way through it. but there are people around him who know that the message of washington change is a good one. the message of attacking a woman for being overweight or eating too much is not. and he's got to change that. >> let's talk about that because you say that's an oops moment. in the moment he was not as strident as he was the next day on a call-in show where he brought it up by himself. he wasn't asked about alicia machado but he transformed this into a second day story saying she gained so much weight. >> he turned this not into only a second day story but a third day story and a fourth day story. this will be a real test to see -- if he thinks this is going to go away, i think he's

have no intention of letting it go away. it affects people's perceptions of him about women, about hispanics, but also about whether he's a gracious person. >> there's this other thing that he continues to talk about yesterday, this idea that he did not go there, that he showed restraint against hillary clinton when it comes to issues in her marriage. >> right. >> it's this thing where you get to go there by saying you're not going there. it's like if i said i'm not even going to talk about that suit you're wearing and i just did. so is this working? >> i don't think it is. i think it's a distraction from, again, the winning message, there are a lot of people around donald trump that will say the politics a long time, washington isn't working. washington needs to change. things like bill clinton's personal life, benghazi, even her e-mail, while they're concerns for voters, there are a lot of republicans say you can talk about this other stuff but it's not to be about issues. and this will he or won't he, for a lot of people, is a distraction. >> he has demonstrated in the recent past an ability to

and kellyanne conway came on as campaign manager, he did seem to adjust. do you think that is something that might happen again? >> we're all waiting for the post-debate polls in the battleground states, does he go down. ironically the best thing might be if he does go down. typically the only way he changes course is when the polls show him slipping a little bit. >> by the way, there's nothing wrong with your suit. just wanted to let you know. thank you. >> thank you, guys. now to a developing story overnight, officials are pleading for calm after a deadly officer-involved shooting that happened in southern california. protesters gathered at the scene shopping center in el cajon which is about 30 miles east of san diego. officers were called in over reports that a man was acting erratically. now, police say he was not armed, but they say he pulled an object from his pocket and pointed it in a, quote, shooting stance toward the officers and that prompted one of the officers to open fire. the man died several hours later at a hospital. there are some new developments today in a major

northern california saying the fake accounts goosed the stock price, directly affecting the stocks. that's securities fraud. >> to give you an idea, the ceo reportedly stood to make an estimate dollars $123 million when he retired. and he is not done yet. he's going to testify in front of the house financial services committee tomorrow. this is only just beginning. the board of directors now saying there could be more actin this one, jo. thanks very much. former republican presidential candidate chris christie speaking to new allegations coming out of that bridgegate scandal. a key witness is now saying christie was in fact aware of the lane closures. stephanie is in new jersey with the latest on this. >> good morning, savannah. the george washington bridge is the busiest in the world.

lanes were shut down unexpectedly in 2013, this place was a nightmare. when people realized that it had been done deliberately as a form of kind of political revenge, there was an june roar. now federal prosecutors say that governor chris christie, despite his denials, knew what was going on. two days into the 2013 lane closures on the george washington bridge with cars, emergency vehicles and school buses stuck in massive traffic jams, new jersey governor chris christie spoke with two former port authority officials at this year's 9/11 memorial service. in a federal courthouse tuesday, widesteen testified that during that conversation, his boss said, governor, there is a tremendous amount of traffic in ft. lee. please know the mayor is frustrated. a democrat, mayor sokolich did not endorse christie for governor. according to the testimony, the

well, i'm sure mr. edge would not be involved in any political. governor christie has repeatedly denied any involvement or knowledge in what would soon be called bridgegate. once again this week, the governor was forced to respond to accusations that he knew more than he admits. christie has not been charged with a crime. >> i had no role in authorizing it. i had no knowledge of it. and there has been no evidence ever put forward that i >> wildsteen pleaded guilty to his involvement and is now the prosecution's chief witness in the case against fironi and christie's former chief of staff. bridgegate dogged christie throughout his president campaign becoming fodder for his opponents. >> he knew about it. he totally knew about it. >> now one of trump's surrogates

>> either i'm a psychopath in sheep's clothing or i am you. >> november 2nd, 2007, police discovered a gruesome crime scene. 21-year-old british student meredith kercher stabbed multiple times inside her home in perugia, italy. police accused knox and her boyfriend, rafael of the crime. >> when that happened, i realized that they weren't ever going to listen to me again. >> knox, sollecito and a drifter were charged with kercher's murder in what police claimed was a drug-fueled sex game gone wrong. the trial splashed across front pajds around the world. papers labeling knox ever from she-devil to foxy knoxy. knox and sollecito were found

they appealed and were released due to a lack of dna evidence but they would not be fully exonerated by the italian supreme court until march of last year. rod blackhurst and brian mcginn are the filmmakers behind "amanda knox." gentlemen, good morning to both of you. congratulations on the film. was it hard to get amanda knox to sit down and talk to you? >> it was a little hard. we let it be known to her if and when she wanted to talk to we first approached her and rafaelle when they were acquitted but two years later amanda said she was ready to tell her side of the story. >> and what did you hear, brian, when she finally sat down and talked about what had happened. what did you learn that we haven't heard about this case? this is one of those people think they know everything about it. >> that was one of the things interesting for us going in. what we found is she has this kind of bird's-eye perspective on these years looking back

the story. everyone in the case has been thinking about it so much that they're able to step back and tie it to a larger ideas and larger philosophies. >> you spoke to amanda and to raffaele who was her boyfriend. they were pretty open with you. we have another clip, i want to play it right now. >> my heart is beating so fast. you know, like, oh, there's romance now and i kissed her. >> compared to like, hey, baby, like he was super nice and i was completely charmed and, yeah. >> did you find them to be pretty open? that is a side of them i think we haven't seen. >> they were all very open with us. i think they all felt like there had been these different versions of them painted and portrayed in the way the media was covering the story and they wanted the opportunity to talk been themselves in their own words. >> you found some home video and

is before all of this happened, you see this young man who is so vivacious and so full of life and so different from the public image we associate with her. what does she say about how this experience changed her, brian, and is that something you notice in terms of her demeanor. >> we keyed into this idea of accidental select. these people have been caught up in the story. it's not only amanda and raffaele, but it's the prosecutor as has an idea of who they are. they walk around on the street and people recognize them and think that they know them already. one of the moments in the movie i think is interesting is amanda says people recognize me in line at the grocery store and they say i know you. and she says you don't know me. and for us that idea that after eight years of headlines all over the world, it was really, really fascinating. >> i have to say it's not without controversy because although you talked to many players in the case, you weren't able to talk to the kercher family.

who lost her life here. she's the center of the case. did you try to talk to them? and how do you feel about the film without that perspective? >> we did reach out to the kercher family twice directly in 2015 and 2016. we'd still very much like to talk to them if they'd like to talk to us. they made it clear that every time they have to talk about this it's re-examining this wound. we wanted to make sure people in the film remembered this was a tragedy at its core that became this piece of entertainment and this set of caught the world up for the better part of a decade. >> we also reached out to the kercher family who declined to comment. it's an interesting film, takes a look at the media's role in all of this as well. rod blackhurst, brian mcginn, congratulations to you. it starts on netflix tomorrow. we'll send it over to carson. coming up next, the botched proposal and the missing ring that had baseball fans on the edge of their seat.

all right. it's 8:46. we're back with a new "today" food feeding your family doesn't have to be expensive or complicated. danielle walker, author of the cookbook "celebrations" is here with a family favorite that's perfect for any day of the week. good morning. >> thanks for having me. >> this is one of your husband's favorite recipes. >> it is. we've been eating these ribs at a restaurant for like the last 16 years at this restaurant for his birthday so i recreated them. >> these are pork ribs. we've got them right there. talk to me about the other

smoke to give it that smoky flavor but not having to smoke it for hours and hours on end. >> liquid smoke? >> it's a natural condiment. they use the flavorings from the chips. >> coincidentally it was carson's nickname in high school. >> we have some vinegar and coconut sugar, which is a substitute for brown sugar. >> we're going to mix all these in a second. let's get to the process. first you're going to make the rub. >> so this is our coc to go with the smokiness. we have chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. the great thing about this rub, you can put it on chicken and barbecue it or a steak. so we're going to use a couple of tablespoons and we can save the rest in this jar. >> how far in advance to cooking do you put the rub on? >> you can do it right before it, do it a few days and wrap it up and get it in your fridge so they're ready to go into the

pantry for six months. >> we're not using a grill today, we're not using a smoker, but we're going to cook these two different ways. >> yes. we're going to do them in the oven. i love that because we do love to do that during the summer where we can put them on the barbecue but we also like to enjoy them in the winter so we put them low and slow in the oven. they get really nice and tender and we finish them under the broiler to get them kind of crisp on top. i'm using can use tin foil. you make a tighty sealed pouch. then flip it over and this locks in all of the steam which helps get them really, really tender. >> 275 how long? >> three or four hours until they're really coming apart with a fork. >> you go that way, i'll go this way. after 20 or 30 minutes you start to smell those in the house, which is the best part of making ribs. guys, how is it tasting down there? >> great.

>> spicy. >> a little bit of cayenne. >> so barbecue sauce is really easy to make. the store-bought versions have caramel coloring and a lot of sugar so we saved some of our rub and we have tomato puree and a few more spices. we're going to add that together and mix it up and brush the ribs to finish it. they're going to have some fat in them so we can drain that out. this is vinegar, a little bit of that coconut sugar, a teeny bit of the smoke. you know what, if they're too spicy too, you can lead a little cayenne or chili powder out. i have young kids, so i like to make them a little bit less spicy. my husband likes spice. perfect. >> so that gets all mixed up and you brush it on again? >> you brush it on again and pop them under the broiler. kind of like if you were finishing it over a fire grill but it's just a little bit easier. >> how long under the broiler. >> a couple of minutes. you just brush the sauce on and then stick them back in and

like. >> al, you're kind of a rib maven. how would you compare these to what you make at home. >> well, they don't have the natural smokiness that you would get in a smoker, but for what it is being done in an oven -- >> low and slow. >> it's delicious. >> really nice. >> good. >> i love this. here's what they look like when they're done. talk to me about your buffalo bites here. >> gamedays, there's lots of gamedays coming up but we also serve these all the time. they're a substitute for chicken wings but they're buffalo if coconut flour and i make them. i have a dairy-free ranch dressing. i can't tolerate dairy, i have an autoimmune disease so i eat dairy-free for that reason. they're delicious and coated in a buffalo sauce. >> this is great. we can put the recipe up on our website. danielle, thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. >> we appreciate it. we're back in a moment. this is "today" on nbc. >> those don't taste like

that you said, this is amazing, that physical strength is the root of female oppression. i think that's right. >> it doesn't sound funny when you say it but when i do it with microphones -- >> give us context. >> the word oppression oar it's the idea that because women aren't as physically strong as women, that's why women are scared when you -- hello, they're all drunk. hello, when you leave the house because we can't physically fight off men. you're a strong woman. no, it's physical strength. and so i think that's what puts us at a disadvantage from the get-go. if women were strong, we wouldn't have waited for the right to vote. >> but we have mental strength. we have mental and it has to take a certain amount of mental strength to do standup, i can't imagine. >> what do i do what a rapist runs at me, math? >> no, i'm thinking more like

frustrated all the time. i don't even like necessarily to go back in that space because it's so chaotic. the washer and drier don't even fit in the space that was built for it. i need help getting that space organized so i can use my attention for my kids. >> if we can gain some organization with a diy prom, fitting the washer and drier into the space that wasn't large enough and adding some color in here. so i'm hoping that we can make this pretty for her by the end of the day. >> i think we're goi day. >> yeah? >> yeah. >> get over on your side. >> okay, anna, come on in. >> oh, my gosh! oh, my gosh! >> do you like it?

please tell me everything. >> all of this is completely doable. dave built the shelves. >> it's galvanized piping you can get very yip expensive and you spray gold on whatever color you want and boom. >> the rug was a little accent to pull the whole room together. we added some curtains but we built a curtain rod out of the same piping to pull the entire room together. everything else is just organization. baskets for the skateboards, for the soccer cleats and the best part is that you have baskets for everybody's clothes. it's actually a room that you guys can use now. >> it's a great room. >> i really love it. yay. >> oh, my gosh. >> do you like it? >> 1, 2, 3 -- >> home run! >> that is awesome.

home. >> that's a lot of laundry. a lot of stuff on the floor, but you guys were great. >> well, come on, five kids, 20 loads of laundry. >> home schooling. >> is there somebody helping her out? she needs a lot of help. we start with galvanized piping in the laundry room. >> these projects are all under $50. very doable, very inexpensive. everybody needs a table. whether it's in your laundry room, in your kids play room, in your craft room. all i plywood, cleaned it up and put repositional, very important, very positional wallpaper, just sticky wallpaper. and just stuck it on this baby. >> if i put it on wrong, you can fix it. >> and you can find great patterns everywhere. they have whole websites related to this. >> and you can do an old table as well. >> the galvanized piping, you can spray paint it black in this case over here.

or gold. it's perfect. >> don't forget, especially if you're doing this in a laundry room, it defeats the purpose to not clean it because it is greasy, so do that first. >> and you did the table under here? >> you can get all of this at any home improvement store and the big box stores will cut it and threat it for you. >> this is important. they will cut it for you for free and usually thread it. so all you have to do is put it together and then you have a table. >> so a not very handy kinda handy. >> it looks like you actually did something. >> absolutely. but then this project also with the galvanized steel, it's really important to know that -- >> oh, wow. >> suspended cabinet reand shelving is huge now because it opens up the space and makes it really clean. if you want a glam look, like the laundry room, we painted it gold but you don't have to do

vintage. >> you get more books, you have more laundry, add more shelves. >> and you're skrieping it as something so easy right now. >> this is very easy because it's right here and all we're doing is screwing the thing back on. but this is a great project for two people. only for measurements. and these are flanged, the big rings they go into. ideally you've got screws into a stud. if that doesn't work, you need it up and secure it. >> let the more creative of the person design it out. honestly if i left this to dave, it may look a little -- well, not like this. >> it wouldn't be level but it would be screwed in somewhere. >> i know you mean well, but seriously -- >> so you have the creativity. >> i love you as a couple. courtney and dave, "masters of
