7:02 am
some new campaign allegations and attacks. here's your state of the race today. 22 days to go. donald trump is doubling down on his claims of a rigged election. this time blaming the media, his opponent, and many polling places. but, there has yet to be any evidence of voter fraud. our newest head-to-head polling shows clinton holds a ten-point lead over trump among likely voters nationwide. when you loo voting bloc, clinton has a advantage 55%-25%. bernie sanders will campaign for hillary clinton with two events in colorado. >> starting with nbc national correspondent peter alexander. he's on the trail in green bay, wisconsin. peter, good morning. >> reporter: matt, savannah, good morning to you. two days until that third and final presidential debate.
7:03 am
supporters here tonight in green bay. heading into this critical week, trump is now furiously ratcheting up his rhetoric. facing a growing deficit in the polls, donald trump is intensifying his efforts to fuel doubts about the legitimacy of the election. >> one big fix. it's one big ugly lie. >> reporter: trump expanding his argument that the election is being rigged by the many polling places. that incendiary new claim challenging the fairness of the voting process. but it also contradicts one of trump's top surrogates, rudy giuliani. >> i don't expect the electoral process to be rigged, meaning the election to be rigged. but if it is, we'll contest it. >> reporter: mike pence also tried to down play his running mate's latest claim. >> we will absolutely accept the results oelection. >> reporter: and house speaker,
7:04 am
confident the states will carry out the election with integrity. ahead of trump's trip to wisconsin, ryan's home turf, trump is blasting his party vp nominee as a man who doesn't know how to win. republicans divided, and now under attack. a gop office in north carolina fire bombed, a nearby building vandalized. so far, no arrests, but trump blames animals representing hillary clinton and democrats. the the fierce rhetoric coming days before the candidates final debate showdown. in our new poll, 31% of voters say the debate made them more likely to back clinton, just 14% more likely to vote trump. who is still vigorously denying a list of accusations from women who claimed he groped or kissed them without permission. allegations nbc news has not independently verified. >> she is in debate prep.
7:05 am
test prior to the debate. i do. >> reporter: and less than a year after hosting "saturday night live" trump is no longer laughing. >> serious health problems, and number three -- sorry. okay, and number four -- >> reporter: time to retire the boring and unfunny show, trump tweeted. alec baldwin portrayal stinks. snl, just another example donald trump says it is rigged. clinton holding on to her group with latinos, 57-17, 50% margin, as significantly, more than 80% of latinos say it is certain they will vote in three weeks, which is what happened before the election four years ago, when president obama won.
7:06 am
morning. thank you. let's talk about the democrats, hillary clinton facing her own trouble this is morning. more stolen e-mails, this time, purported to include transcripts of speeches she gave to goldman sachs. andrea mitchell has more on that. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, savanna. hillary clinton riding high in the polls, but no w facing the rolling wave of e-mails released by she gave to goldman sachs before she was a candidate. hillary clinton's motorcade on sunday, whisking her to practice for her final debate. but how can she prepare for the drip, drip, drip of thousands of pages of stolen e-mails released each day, especially transcripts of those goldman sachs speeches. bernie sanders wanted to see them during the primary campaign.
7:07 am
transcripts. let everybody see them. >> reporter: now, clinton talks about cracking down on wall street. >> we still have to crack down on the big banks. >> reporter: as a highly paid speaker, clinton appears to have told the bankers, the people that know the industry better than anybody are the people who work in the industry. in the e-mails released by wikileaks, not authenticated by clinton or nbc news, she also said new banking regulations after the 2008 crisis were passed for political reasons. and the jury is still out 2010 dodd-frank wall street reform law. wikileaks said it was to campaign john podesta, clinton decided oh oppose the tpp trade deal she was supported, contrary oh to her later claim. an advisor writing if she weighs in now, some in labor wonder why she didn't say she opposed earlier.
7:08 am
giuliani with willie geist. >> she is getting bombarded by wikileaks and she needs something to save her. the stuff she says in those e-mails is dis eququalifying fr being the president of the united states. >> reporter: the fbi does suspect that russia is involved at the highest levels, but vladimir putin on sunday denying that he is trying to influence the election, the claim is that he is trying to hurt hillary clinton's campaign. at the same time, the according to an nbc news exclusive report, is planning a covert operation to retaliation against russia for that continuing hack of the clinton e-mails. and we're also learning from other e-mails last summer that clinton aides were worried about a character flaw that clinton was refusing to apologize for her private server, until that is, she started doing interviews, starting with us last summer. back to you, matt and savanna.
7:09 am
thank you. chuck, good morning to you. >> good morning, sir. >> for months and months, hillary clinton refused to talk about or release the transcripts of those speeches to goldman sachs saying that she would do that some time when donald trump released his taxes. now we know, allegedly, what was included in her comments to gold plan sax. do you have a better sense of why she didn't release them? >> i sure do. this was -- i think this would have been more problematic for her in the democratic primaries. look, theem moving in a direction much faster to the left than hillary clinton ever was. what wikileaks -- what we have learned out of all of this, matt, on one hand, it sort of reinforced what we already thought we knew about hillary clinton. but politically and ideologically, this being exposed during the primaries with bernie sanders, that basically she was making a calculation to move to the left. i think it would have been absolutely damaging in the primary and possibly cost her
7:10 am
have been that damaging in the primary, the question then is how damaging, if at all, is it now with three weeks to go until the general election. >> i think in a general election, much less damaging, number one. there are some voters who are going to be reassured that she's in the middle here a little bit, number one. and then second, remember who her opponent is. i think against another opponent this could be more lethal. i think against donald trump, obviously he blocks out the sun with all of h trump. he spent the weekend really honing in on this idea and this message that the whole system is rigged. but if you really think about it, that's the message that not -- not a message to win, it is not a message to turn out voters, because, frankly, people might get depressed and think, why bother. it is a message to explain a loss. >> that's right, savannah. i think it is also a message as a way to not lose either. to not look like a loser.
7:11 am
this is going to be donald trump defining victory in his own way. we've got -- we all know donald trump pretty well, i think, the three of us. one thing he will never admit is losing or failing at anything. to me, this feels like donald trump's way of deciding this fight for the presidency will make him look like a winner even if he gets trounced. >> chuck todd, thank you very much. want to mention, nbc news will bring you thatrd final presidential debate wednesday night. komp coverage begins, 9:00 eastern time. bug niz ig news overseas. the army launch be an attack of mosul. nbc's chief foreign correspondent richard engel is with troops on the move in northern iraq this morning. richard, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is a major operation where we are, we've been hearing
7:12 am
. it began in the early morning hours at around 60,000 iraqis are taking part. it is also the main focus of the some 5,000 u.s. troops in this country. the biggest offensive against isis anywhere so far has begun. this morning iraqi forces, backed by american air power, and artillery are on the move. it seems like every iraqi in uniform and every vehicle is being brought in for thi so far, this stage moving the armor to the front line is moving very quickly. but american commanders say it could slow down considerably if and when they meet resistance. heading into battle, but their mood is upbeat. as the attack convoy stopped briefly, some troops started dancing. and they're getting a warm reception from iraqi civilians. many villagers came out to welcome the troops as they
7:13 am
in by isis as human shields. but then, as the convoy drew closer to mosul, an ominous sign. huge plumes of black smoke shut out the sun. isis torched these oil wells, wells it used to fund its terror, rather than allow them to go back to the iraqi government. many iraqis want revenge for over two years of isis abuses. "we will be victorious in god willing," a soldier said. how long it will take depends on what isis has in store for these troops. iraq's prime minister says this mission has one goal -- to liberate mosul from isis, and god willing, he said, we will win. savannah? matt? back to you. >> richard engel in iraq, thank you. we have an update now on a tragic story out of lexington, kentucky where the 15-year-old daughter of olympic sprinter
7:14 am
weekend. police announced last night they arrested a 21-year-old man in connection with that case. trinity gay was shot outside a restaurant early sunday when a group of men in two cars opened fire on each other. trinity was not in either car. she later died at a lexington hospital. like her father, trinity was a sprinter. she ran for her high school team. mpl now to traumatic video we showed you last week, a great white shark bustingnt with the driver still inside. this morning that diver is telling his story for the first time. nbc's keir simmons has the latestest o eon that. goo. >> good morning. this is the video that went viral. inside that shark cage had been a lone diver. this is the view from the boat from terrified onlookers. until now we hadn't married from the diver himself. but this morning he tells us this was not the only shark he
7:15 am
>> reporter: thrashing furiously, a huge shark inside a shark cage. the animal panicking, trapped. what you can't see is the chinese diver who, just moments earlier, was inside that same small cage. the shark's bloody body horrifying witnesses. watching from the boat. is there any . >> is there anybody in there? >> reporter: seconds later he resurfaces, uninjured. >> i just feel very there. can survive, still alive. and nothing gets hurt. >> reporter: the terrifying sequence lasting less than two minutes. taking the bait, slamming into the cage. >> before he broke the cage, his nose has been locked in the small window. i just tell myself, hey, come on, you don't want to go into my cage. but maybe less than a second after he broke the cage. >> reporter: the diver thrown out into shark infested water.
7:16 am
of the other sharks swim below me. >> reporter: up above, panic. someone opens the hatch. and finally, the diver emerges. >> i don't think he want to attack me. he just panic. i think it's just accident. >> reporter: shark cage close encounters occur when sharks are hunting food. it can look like a shark attack. in fact the animal is unable to swim backwards. but experts warn tourists no the to take risks, like in mexico earlier this year after this latest frightening incident, the diver says he'll keep diving. >> i will get back to the cage next day. >> he says the shark was so powerful, he was thrown out of the cage and left holding a piece of the torn-off metal. he says that he was not that frightened because everything happened so quickly. matt and savannah, i'm not sure everyone would say that.
7:17 am
>> it was bad in the cage. not so great outside either. shark infested waters. back to the video we showed at the top of the show. tra traumatic rescue caught on camera. cell phone video shows palm bay police officers and several bystanders rushing to free the trapped driver as the suv burst into locked arms forming a human chain. eventually pulling the driver up hill to safety. miraculously, he only has minor injuries. let's turn to dylan now, first check of the weather. al is still on the mend. doing well. >> he pick a good week to recover. it is going to be in the 80s, sunny. it is fantastic this week across the northeast. in fact across most of the country it is going to feel like late august rather than mid-october. summer-like temperatures thanks to this area of high pressure pushing the jet stream way up to

this revival? >> we're still in the early days, so we're still kind of going, oh, okay, here we go. a bit nervous and we're still rehearsing during the day. but i think it is going really well. people seem to be enjoying it, don't they. we're sort of finding our feet with it and really starting to have serious fun. be naughty and dangerous and all the things they're supposed to be. that's good fun. >> were you guys ever overwhelmed during the rehearsal process? what i understand is that y'all to prepare for this and the amount is dialogue is immense. >> i have never called line in my professional life once. calling line is when you can't come up with a line and you call line and someone hopefully reads the line to you. on our first preview, i broke that and i called "line" about halfway through the show. i must have taken like a seven or ten-second pause which on stage is an eternity.

9:52 am
i watched her work a number of times. but then something sent me a video of the production that she did in london when she originated this production, and i don't know how to describe that. you just see somebody. i think the best metaphor is like sports. i think people might understand that. you see another athlete doing something and you go, i want to play. i want to work with them. i want to do something with them. i was right. there is -- we have a similar acting. we have a kind of tenacity and a kind of energy and wit and it's -- it's just we're really well matched. i'm having the time of my life. >> janet, your turn. she's like let me soak it in. yeah. the same. i'd seen liev on stage. obviously in his film and tv stuff. he's just a brilliant, brilliant actor and i thought that would work. that's fun. that's dangerous.
