7:04 am
began to distance themselves from his campaign. instead, there were moments where trump focused on something else -- the possibility of losing this election. >> they don't give the support that we really need. >> okay, but i'm fill excuconfu >> maybe i'm better off without their sport to tell you the truth. >> reporter: donald trump says he doesn't need establishment help. >> i wouldn't want to be in a fox hole with a lot of people these people, including bryan. >> -- bryan. >> especially ryan. >> i got that. >> reporter: since the infamous release of the "access hollywood" video. a new survey found of the 331 republican lawmakers, governors, senators, and those in congress, more than a quarter are not endorsing trump. trump says if the 2005 is what pushed wavering pbs over trepubr the edge that is sad. >> that is just sad. i have to go back to my other

7:06 am
supporters were glad trump didn't talk about the feud with republicans or drudge your bill clinton's sexual sorted past and much happier to hear him talk about the wikileaks revelations because they say that is a legitimate issue about hillary clinton character and ethics and fitness for the presidency. >> thank you, major. see how long it lasts. hillary clinton's campaign chairman is tying his stolen e-mails to donald trump's campaign. john podesta claims the russian hackers targeted his account trying to influence this election and he suggested the hackers tipped off a trump adviser. podesta spoke out after wikileaks reveals more than e-mails of the campaign yesterday. nancy cordes is with us white plains, new york now. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. gayle, it was on this plane that john podesta went step-by-step through all of the contact that trump's aides and associates have had with either russian actors or with wikileaks.
7:07 am
he argued it's all circumstantial evidence that points to some kind of agreement between trump and the highest reaches of the foreign russian government. podesta said the theft of ten years worth of e-mails from his g-mail account is now being investigated as part of fbi's larger probes of hacks into the dnc. the u.s. 13we8gs community said on friday it is confident the hacks were directed by the russian government. >> russian interference in this election and their apparent attempt to influence on behalf of mr. trump is, i think, should be of utmost concern to all americans. >> reporter: podesta noted that long time trump confidant roger stone appeared to have advance notice of the hack tweeting in august, trust me, it will soon be podesta's time in the barrel and telling florida republicans recently that he was in touch with wikileaks founder julian assange. the e-mails revealing and
7:08 am
sometimes embarrassing window into the workings of a major campaign. in one, now interim dnc chair donna brazile working for cnn appeared to slip the campaign a question clinton was to be asked at a town hall during her primary against bernie sanders and in another, howard schultz of starbucks called the campaign stale and lacking transparency that the american people will need to trust and ultimately elect clinton. >> she doesn't know if it's the russians doing the hacking. >> reporter: trump brushed off accusations that his words and proposals seem to paver putin. >> i know nothing about the interworkings of russia. >> reporter: trump sounded like a russian dictator when he threatened to jail clinton if he wanted to. >> i never thought i would see the say we have a major party candidate who would be promoting those kinds of notions. >> reporter: podesta said he
7:09 am
doesn't know why trump would be sympathetic to russia but he suggested that it might be his business dealings or his fascination with vladimir putin and to release documents and netter fake ones and he suspects that to happen soon. "usa today" reports this morning on what it calls an extraordinary development in the presidential race. as we reported, it contacted every republican governor and every lawmaker in congress. as of last night, about 1 in 4 is refusing to endorse donald trump. the paper says the results have, quote, no precedent in a modern american political history. susan page is "usa today's" washington bureau chief and we are pleased to have her here. three subjects. one, e-mails and the russians. but donald trump. then where this campaign is going. what is trump's strategy based on this quarrel with the republican leaders? >> i think he has turned to a
7:10 am
scorched earth strategy he is going to turn out his core supporters and he is going to try to punish republicans that are not supporting him. and he is trying to make it as difficult as possible for a president clinton to govern after the election. >> do you see this as a turning point in the campaign? >> i do think so. and i think you see it not only in how donald trump is behaving, but also in how hillary clinton is behaving, because she is now campaigning with the idea of trying to bring as many senators, democratic candidates for senate and the house along with her. and she is preparing to campaign in some states she doesn't need, states like arizona and georgia. utah might even be in play. >> putting money in those states? >> putting money in those states with the idea of helping down the ballot just as donald trump is making it harder for republicans down the ballot, hillary clinton is now doing everything she can to make it easier to gain control of the house -- of the senate and perhaps even the house on election day. >> his popularity, however, is based on being anti-establishment, running against a very unpopular
7:11 am
congress. however, specifically taking on some of these lawmakers, including the speaker of the house, the man he would have to work with hand in hand in order to get stuff done, does it complicate things for mike pence, his running mate? >> i think it does. what is mike pence's brand? a very honorable guy and evangelical christian who has generally not done negative campaigning in his own campaigns. >> but was very close with paul ryan. >> that's right. at an event last night had someone at a town hall say if donald trump loses we should have a revelation. he said don't talk like that. this puts pence in a difficult place and we know that he has ambitions down the road. you know? he might be running for president down the road himself. >> have you seen any evidence that the russians tripped off the trump campaign about the e-mails coming up about hillary clinton's campaign? >> we don't have hard evidence but circumstance@evidence including a tweet that roger stone a long time of donald trump said it's john podesta's
7:12 am
turn in the barrel and that has happened now in october. >> what does that mean, susan? >> i think one of the most serious things happened in this campaign has gotten not as much attention as it deserves is russian state actors to affect our politics and a extremely serious and it raises questions in some voters' minds the legitimacy of the election. >> i think may signal some kind of retaliation? >> some thought they were holding off in the hopes of making a deal with russia on syria, that has fallen through. i think increasing signs that the administration may take more severe steps against russia for what it thinks it's doing. >> this year's presidential debate is one week from today and see the coverage right here on cbs next wednesday night, october 18th. a small plane crash into connecticut. a law enforcement source tells cbs news this morning it may have been intentional. the fbi is investigating claims from a flight instructor who survived the crash. he says a student on board may
7:13 am
have meant to bring the plane down. that student was killed. he came from jordan to the u.s. in 2012 to attend flight school. the plane went down near the pratt and whitney factory that is in east hartford which makes airplane engines and pratt and whitney is a major defense contractor as well. major rivers in north carolina will be at folood stag the rest of the week following hurricane matthew. the tar river around greenville, it will overwhelm every bridge in the county by sun-down. more than 2,000 people have been taken to safer locations and many in dramatic rescues. matthew is blamed for 34 deaths in the southeast. mark strassmann is in fayetteville, north carolina, with the new threat there. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. i want to show you something. this was a man-made lake behind me and now it's a giant mud hole and here is what happened. heavy rains from the hurricane collapsed the road that held all of this water in place and drained the lake and sent all of that water flooding the next
7:14 am
town. flooding issues are all over this region. >> yesterday, we couldn't get access further this way and today you see how far we are able to get a block or two. yesterday we could have went three blocks this way. >> reporter: in this five-ton truck, chief jimmy hunt's his crew of volunteer firefighters have ferried dozens of people to higher ground. most people stranded in lumberton have been rescued and these rescue teams responding to a team or a tip or a call to check out a specific address. >> it's pretty horrific what we have seen out here. >> reporter: what has been worst been? >> worst hi've seen is a paralyzed patient from the chest down and the double amputee got knee to the heart because he was pretty much -- >> reporter: frustration is also setting in. on tuesday, north carolina governor pat mccrory told people
7:15 am
to bay evacuation orders and stop driving around barricades on flooded roads. >> we are not messing around and do not to put people at risk to save you once you make that decision. >> i lost my home, my car. >> reporter: joni gaty stuck in her home in lumber don since saturday and said rescue choppers flew overhead. >> i had signs on my house and i had sheets and towels and screaming at them! they just didn't ever stop! >> i thought she was dead, honestly. >> reporter: her son jean flor rah drove 16 hours from michigan to find her. she was standing on the porch with water up to her knees when he arrived. >> we got halfway there. heard a voice and, i mean, that just gave us like a burst of energy like, let's get to her, like, nobody else is coming. >> reporter: 135,000 people here in north carolina still have no power. you can see power poles as well as power lines that got swept away here. you can also see why restoring all of that power is going to

7:34 am
dangerous. you could have an explosion if the wires cross and a fail/safe mechanism on top of it to prevent it from catching fire and a whole bunch of things cascaded and went wrong inside of that device. the strange things samsung has hundreds of people trying to figure it out and couldn't figure it out. >> and it happened with the replacement phones as well? >> they thought let's put new batteries in and they did that and it kept happening so something more complex going on. >> i saw an interview with someone who had a phone. he was holding it saying i'm not giving mine up because it hasn't had a problem which just seems so ridiculous to that take attitude when you look at the video that is happening. it's crazy. >> if you have one of those phones, to the guy on the video, take it back! right? there are lots of other good phones on the market and lots of other good samsung phones on the market. if you have a note 7, return it! >> what is the process since they haven't been able to figure it out? should something have been done earlier about this recall?
7:35 am
>> they should have figured it out earlier. it's rare and unfortunate to have a recall that doesn't work. if you recall a product it should work and that is massive failure on the part of samsung. they should have had more people investigate it at the beginning and should not have gone to market so quickly. there are a lot of competitive pressures in the phone industry and they moved too fast and shouldn't have done that. >> the interesting thing to me batteries are the key to electric cars and so much in terms of smartphones. is there one company, the manufacturer of these batteries do they go to same company or thousands of places? >> lots of different places and samsung thought it was one specific subsidiary that made the batteries and taking batteries from different subsidiaries and putting them in the same phone so it's not an isolated problem. >> how do you repair your brand? >> you have to offer very generous refunds and be very open and very clear and they have to not have this happen ever again! >> should you be worried about samsung products? we had a story in the news last

7:38 am
vilesky served in mosul during the u.s. occupation in 2009 and now in charge of american ground forces helping to liberate the city. >> we see the enemies are demoralized and lers leaving mosul so we will enable the iraqis to go as fast as they need to go. >> reporter: you say isis leaders are fleeing the city, is that right? >> we have indications they are leaving. >> reporter: even though, the colonel admitted that america's limited role here is sometimes frustrating. >> certainly things are much easier when you're forward and you got the rifle in your hand and you are maneuvering, you have great control over everything that you're doing. >> reporter: so it's harder to help the iraqis than it is just to do it yourself? >> isn't that always the case? >> reporter: those u.s. officers told us there are still around 3,000 to 5,000 isis fighters inside mosul and they are laying explosives to protect themselves. gayle? >> holly williams reporting from erbil, thank you. the government says teenagers are making more deadly driving errors.

than adults to be involved in a deadly crash. kris van cleave is at a driving school in rockville, maryland, with that new survey showing teenagers' top mistakes. this is an important story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. driving schools like this one aimed to make drivers safer on the roads but they are finding often new drivers are showing up with bad habits. now, adults say 8 in 10 admit to driving while on their phones. that is more than teens. when it comes to speeding going 15 over the limit or more, about half of adults and teens admit to doing it. when you take inexperience and add speed that. >> reporter: a teen's girlfriend was speeding and lost control and hid a treat. donovan wasn't wearing a seat belt. he was ejected and killed instantly. >> crash has a date but the pain doesn't have a time frame. >> reporter: his mother martha. >> i can't even describe what it

7:46 am

8:00 am
♪ it is wednesday, october 12th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." more real news is ahead, including early voting now under way in more states. we will look at whether donald trump's new challenges to the voting process could damage our democracy. first, here's a look at today's "eye opener" at 8:00. despite that tweet storm, there were moments trump focused on something else. the possibility of losing this election. >> what is trump's strategy? >> he has turned to a strategy where he is going to turn out his core supporters and try to punish republicans not supporting him and make it as difficult as possible for a president clinton to govern. >> power poles and lines got swept away here and restoring
8:01 am
all of that power is going to take some time. >> the united states military has flown in aid to haiti and for some the supplies can't come fast enough. >> president obama taking part in an espn town hall on issues of race, sports, and achievement. >> we all get knocked down in life. the question is how do you respond? >> hillary clinton campaigned in florida today with al gore. >> for those of you who are younger than 25, you might not remember the election of 2000 and what happened here in florida and across the country. >> you're making al gore go back to florida? that's so cruel! that is like making joe frazier go back to manila! i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. 27 days before the election, donald trump is fighting a battle on two fronts -- against
8:02 am
hillary clinton and his fellow republicans. trump lashed out yesterday at house speaker paul ryan and other republicans. they are distancing themselves from him after a 2005 showed trump making sexually aggressive comments about women. >> donald trump tweeted yesterday it is so nice the shackles taken off of me and i can fight for america the way i want to. last night trump said the shackles were the weak and ineffective people within the party that if the 2005 video pushed wavering republicans over the edge that is sad. >> donald trump accused the clinton's last night at a rally in florida of cashing in during haiti's earthquake in 2009. a freedom of information act request. had he show the state department funneled requests from friend of bill clinton referred to as fobs, or wjcbip's, using his
8:03 am
initials. nancy cordes is in white plains, >> reporter: the requests that trump is referring to came from clinton acquaintance and clinton foundation donors who wanted to help with the relief work in haiti after that devastating earthquake back in 2010. one exchange between a clinton foundation director and the state department, the state department official wrote, i need you to flag when people are friends of wjc. william jefferson clinton. the same official wrote to one of the head, rolando is a close friend of the secretary and former president and he is wanting to get folks into haiti to work on electrical issues. the state department official wrote in another e-mail, is this an fob? if not, the person should go to cidi.org. the teams here are overwhelmed. these e-mails do not show whether the offers of help were purely charitable in nature but also don't show that these offers were made with any
8:04 am
financial motives as trump has suggested. and it's important to point out that back in 2010 it was well documented that the clinton foundation was funneling offers to help haiti to the state department. which was overwhelmed. bill clinton was the united nations special representative for haiti and coordinated the relief efforts there. former president george w. bush was also heavily involved in relief work in haiti. it's unclear whether his friends also got special consideration because those e-mails weren't requested by the republican national committee. >> thanks. in iowa, yesterday, mike pence had to shut down a supporter who really wants them to win. >> if hillary clinton gets in, i, myself, i'm ready for a revolution because we can't have her in. >> don't say that. >> but i'm just saying. >> the woman said she is very worried about voter fraud.

>> the best ante dote is be involved in the process. if you're concerned about voter integrity and you haven't signed up to be a poll watcher, to volunteer at a polling place, to be a part of the integrity of that process, then you need to do it. >> donald trump has repeatedly suggested that the election process is rigged. >> what a rig. we are in such a rigged system. it is terrible. and you got to watch your polling booths because i hear too many stories about pennsylvania. certain areas. so go and vote and then go check out areas! because a lot of bad things happen. >> we have to make sure that this election is not stolen from us. >> trump has gone further and encouraging his supporters to observe voters at the polls. 39 states have voter challenger laws. they give private citizens the right to challenge the eligibility of voters in person on election day. contributing editor alex wagner

"scare the vote" looks into trump's claims and the lasting effect it might have on the democracy in this country. thank you for joining us. >> good to see you. >> reporter: in the article you say voter fraud is nearly 0% in the united states, yet, donald trump keeps raising it over and over and the effects could be devastating to this country. >> yeah. i think we talk a lot about the long-term effects of 2016 will be on the american public, right? certainly there is a pervasive sense that-of-look our systems are broken and our institutions need overhaul. the notion that the basic act of democracy of casting a vote is no longer fair and that our elections in some ways are no longer free. which is a suggestion we have been hearing from donald trump on the campaign trail as of late. the long-term and even medium-term effect on our democracy could be profound and not a position that america, which is largely seen as a model democracy around the world. >> profound, how do you think? >> i talk to election watchers who have done this election
8:07 am
monitoring around the world and talked to folks at the u.n. they say the rhetoric we are hearing from donald trump the election is rigged in advance of the election that is rhetoric you hear from emerging and weak democracies. ironman rhetoric on "the new york times." this is not the norm of american politics and nor is the suggestion that the online trump campaign is doing to sending private citizens out to the polls to watch and see what their other fellow americans are doing. >> on the other side the stories that the russians are trying to influence. >> absolutely. i think that is adding to this climate of insecurity and fear. however, the evidence is what it is. there are 1 in 15 million cases of voter fraud is statistically zero and doesn't exist as a percentage of the american votes cast. does that mean our system is perfect, that we don't need better machines, that we don't
8:08 am
need to increase voter registration and turnout and all of the rest? >> or does it mean something has changed? >> well, i think that the question of cyberwar fare and cybermonitoring is broad and that is a different issue than necessarily donald trump is calling for. private citizens can't do cybermonitoring in person. >> it's heating up as his numbers are dropping. >> i think that is not a coincide. if things are not going your way, challenge the results. >> one, it is easier to vote in this country early. and we will have as much as 40% of the vote will be early. in fact, there are many people believe that florida, north carolina, maybe nevada, ohio, could be decided even before the election. >> sure. >> on the flip side, republicans, for the last six year, have made it harder to vote in person. we now have 34 states that require voters to show some form of identification at the polls. so many restrictions to make
8:09 am
sure the voting is fire. >> legislatures have moved forward these voter i.d. laws and this is reported today in political. people are saying the rhetoric about the system being rigged is dangerous. there are people on both sides of the aisle that recognize the tenor in american politics that is being driven in this particular moment is not a good one in the long term. >> but the long-term effect, do you think? >> look. if you have a section of one of our two major political parties that no longer believes it matters or fair when americans turn out to vote the implications are profound. if you have people not participating in the democratic process how do you have a representative democracy? >> i think how it's going to play out. i can challenge anybody who is voting? what are my qualifications? >> we don't want voters intimidated at the polls. that is not a good process and not good activity on election day. >> thank you. >> let's hope for no hanging chads! alex wagner, thank you so much.

president obama talked about balancing his work in family life in an espn town hall last night. the president said it's an issue that he and michelle wrestle with. >> my favorite sound bite from michelle about this is, i remember right after malia was born, very early on, a friend of mine called to see if i wanted to play basketball. i said, no, man, i can't, i have to babysit malia. i hung up the phone. she turned to me cindy, you know what if it's your own child, it's not babysitting! so i would say to the soon to be dads here, just understanding the level of responsibility and commitment that is required and the things that you have to cut out, because a lot of moms are already cutting those things >> mr. obama said he knows that
8:11 am
when he looks back on his life, it's not the political accomplishments that will stand out. what he remembers is, quote, holding hands with my daughters and taking them down to a park. >> don't you like him pointing that out? it's not your own child when you're babysitting. need to send that note for a lot of dads from time to time. >> it is true in the end. >> that will stand out. >> you remember your personal memories of your family. >> good to hear a man sort of talking about what are these universal values that should be adopted. a single tweet began an online movement in response to the tape featuring donald trump's vulgar comments. how the #not okay prompted a huge number of women to share
