back to you. >> jacob rascon. thank you. let's bring in joey reid. and jessica flores. ladies, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> all right. let's get to it. let's start with donald trump yesterday. going after the women who have accused him of misconduct. going after the media. conspiracy. a lot of folks say at times he seemed unhinged. >> ripping apart his teleprompter. there seems to be an emotional breakdown. he seems to be lashing out at the republican party for not standing behind him. he seems to want the republican party to join this bizarre defense of attacking the women. it is not a good look. i feel for his campaign team. put it that way.

news for donald trump. if you look at the battleground states. he is still holding his own. are there people out there who view this as white noise and don't see the negative? >> hillary clinton has not had a good week. the e-mails continue to drip, drip, drip. it is not helpful to her campaign. in the rock, paper, scissors of politics, sex e-mails. he didn't do that in the debate. he won the debate, but did not expand the electorate. they are not that close and it is not enough. losing by two points still doesn't make you president. >> you mentioned hillary clinton. i want to mention the obamas. you have michelle obama delivering that emotional speech on thursday. saying she was shaken to her core by the allegations.

>> think about it. hillary clinton has the current president of the united states and vice president of the united states sort of a grab bag of all the political stars of the democratic party. donald trump has a guy of questionable morals saying he was on an airplane with him in first class. there is a contrast there in the level of support that hillary clinton has. listen, michelle obama is probably the most effective communicator on the scene right now. that inclu that speech was so impactful and effective because it got to what most people feel when they watch the horrid election that our children are watching this. this is impacting or girls and boys. it is impacting our image around the world. as parents, it is painful to watch our country slide into the abyss that has been revolving around the scandals. it is about the assault and the way women are treated.

problem with enthusiasm with voters. donald trump had a more enthusiastic base. what i think michelle obama's speech is gin up that enthusiasm. people who watched that were hillary clinton voters, but better hillary clinton voters. >> you said something earlier that piqued my interest. the trump strategy is to the design and conspiracy stuff. this is the same stuff existed in that part of the web for some time. is that what we are seeing? is he trying to drive down support on the other side? >> i don't think it is a strategy. i think donald trump is lashing out. i think he is angry and he's losing. i think he has been losing for some time. the structure of the race has been clear for some time. i think donald trump is sliding into an emotional abyss and lashing out at everyone.

why you spend your saturday in maine. >> maine. it is not winner take all. part of the strategy is getting a little tenous. >> maine before vegas. >> thank you, guys. you can see more of joy reid this morning on msnbc. it is a pretty good show. now we have to turn to a huge storm system taking place out the pacific northwest in over a decade. it has already spawned two tornadoes and brought 100-mile-an-hour winds. today, the storm is expected to go from bad to even worse. nbc's joe fryer is here with the latest. joe, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, stephanie. you could say this is the calm between the storm. the pacific northwest is getting ready for another strong blast with destructive winds later on today.

to 74. every other year. >> this says 45. >> that is the american cancer society. those are the two major competing groups, if you will. the american cancer society states the mammogram should be done every year between 45 and 54. every year or two years after. while the task force has maintained since 2009 they think the benefit versus outweighs mammography in your 40s. >> what would change the protocols? >> that is important to say. the recommendations have to do with women considered at average risk. what increases your risk? the two things you can't change are your age or gender. women are 100 times more likely to get breast cancer. there is also if you have a

lesion or family history. we talk about brca 1 and brca 2. there are other factors that we understand that are involved. >> we talk about screenings. what are the common factors? >> the thing about breast cancer, it could be asymptomatic. basically, if you have a lump in your breast or that is painless, hard with irregular borders. nipple discharge or skin changes, you want to alert your health care provider. sheinelle, it is important to reiterate that while the groups may differ on when the recommendation is to start, all the groups absolutely assert and

all understand that especially doing a breast self exam and knowing your body is still absolutely important. >> it can't hurt. >> it can't hurt. >> good information this morning. dr. natalie azar. coming up, ask an anchor. the crowd has spoken and we will answer their questions. hi, i'm phil mickelson. i've been fortunate enough to win on golf's biggest stages. but when joint pain and stiffness from psoriatic arthritis hit... even the smallest things became difficult. he prescribed enbrel... to help relieve joint pain and help stop further joint damage. enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal, events including infections, tuberculosis... lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders, and allergic reactions have occurred. tell your doctor if you've been someplace where fungal infections are common... or if you're prone to infections,

th insulins, like tresiba?, may cause serious side effects like heart failure. your insulin dose shouldn't be changed without asking your doctor. get medical help right away if you have trouble breathing... fast heartbeat, extreme drowsiness, swelling of your face, tongue, or throat, dizziness, or confusion. ask your doctor if you're tresiba? ready. ? tresiba? ready ? what makes thermacare different? two words: it heals. how? with heat. unlike creams and rubs that mask the pain, thermacare has patented heat cells that penetrate deep to increase circulation and accelerate healing. let's review: heat, plus relief, plus healing, equals thermacare. the proof that it heals is you. in our house, imagination runs wild. but at my table, i keep the food real. like country crock's recipe
