saying as he stares down cancer and shares his painful diagnosis with the nation. >> i would say that night anda6 the next day until i came back up to emory, i thought i had a few weeks left. but i was surprisingly at ease. and a military milestone. two women will make history tomorrow when they draut from t graduate from the army ranger school. i'll discuss it with the army's first female four star general. the gloves are off in the tight between gdonald trump and jeb bush. today bush launched into a tirade about trump in new hampshire. >> there is a big difference between donald trump and me. i'm a proven conservative with a record. he isn't. i cut taxes every year. he's proposed the largest tax increase in than kimankind's hi. i have fought for republican and

conservative causes all of my adult life. >> those remarks come after trump and bush slammed one another in simultaneous town halls in new hampshire last night. it's a tough every buer bush an poll may have something to do with it. trump leads bush in bush's home state of florida. the message from trump, deal with it. and in video, trump strikes a pose with a bald eagle. for more on all of this, we're joined by joy reid and raul reyes. and also political consultant katie packer gauge. thank you very much for joining us. katie, it seems like this is a new side of jeb bush, one that is coming out swinging pretty much against donald trump. is this a smart strategy? >> well, i think that it's a strategy that he, you know, is sort of boxed into to some

degree. he had been the frontrunner prior to trump's emergence and has to sort of set the record straight on some things. and there is nothing i've heard governor bush say about mr. trump that i think is inaccurate. mr. trump is not a conservative. he is barely a republican. really just by his own admission, not based on any record. and think i think it's important for somebody to point these things out and jeb bush has a pretty good soap box do that. so it's important for some of these facts to be pointed out. >> do you think he has to do this because he's on the ropes that trump is kind of blowing the competition out of the water, jeb has to find a way to slow that momentum down? >> i think the other republican candidates have to fight for attention at this point and at some point the way this ends is that either donald trump decides on his own that he conditions win a primary and decides to get out on his own or one of the other candidates has to essentially take him down, trump donald trump. so it's been a competition to

see which of them had the strength and also the credibility with fellow republicans to finally take trump on and win. so i think that none of them have a choice. they all have to try and jeb bush has the most at stake because again he is probably the establishment candidate with the most potential momentum. >> do you feel that if he starts going after trump, he's playing trump's game and that could be seen that his weakness is being exposed by trump who is now setting the agenda? >> maybe it could be seen as that, but at point he has no choice. it is highly unlikely that donald trump is going to be in this race to the end and wind up as the nominee. but all of the rhetoric that is going on now with for example scott walker saying he would support an end to birth right citizenship, those sound bites will live forever. and although many voters including latino voters may not be paying attention now, all of what is being said will be cut and used in commercials later. so it is to jeb bush's advantage

to stand up right now, stand up forcefully and again even when he's wanted to, like he stumbled over terms -- he showed some rustiness using a term like anchor babies which is a derogatory term in the latino community and also inaccurate. if somebody comes to the united states and has a baby, that is no protection from deportation. >> and donald trump for as well as he's doing, he's only in the 20s in terms of the polls. at some point one of the other candidates has to -- if there is a sizable sort of center right faction of the republican base, they need to be led. they need someone to lead them. because otherwise you're going to have demoralization among the base when one of these other guys is inevitably the nominee. >> and things did get prickly today with jeb bush when reporters were asking him about the use of the term an anchor

baby. take a listen. >> do you regret using the term anchor baby yesterday? >> no, i don't regret it. do you have a better term? give me another word. >> he's not the only one using the term. but it seems like trump's popularity pulling jeb bush into the rhetoric of the more nativist side of the republican party similar to what tripped up mitt romney. >> i think that this language is really unhelpful to the party in the general election. i don't think that's where governor bush's heart is and i do think that he got pulled thp direction by mr. trump. but it speaks to a larger issue that mr. trump is bad for the republican party. and to joy's comment, he does only represent somewhere in the low 20s of our party. he does not represent the majority viewpoint of the party. and as i tweeted earlier today, the are not candidates that are talking like that are walking down a general election plank

and it's bad thing not just with latino voter, but women are turned off by that rhetoric, too. and i hope the other candidates will come together and just restore some sanity to this whole discussion and some compassion to the discussion. i think that's what voters want to hear. >> katie, do you think that was a gaffe by jeb bush to use the term anchor baby? >> i don't know. he said it wasn't. but i don't for a minute think that governor bush, you know, has anything against latinos that are coming to this country and seeking a better life for their families. he has a solid record on that. i think it was a poor choice of words, but, you know, that's something that his campaign will have to discuss. >> do you think it's something that can hurt him the same way self deportation hurt mitt romney? >> yes, it could. and we saw the interview where he said give me another term to use. another term to use for these children is u.s. citizen children. there are 4.5 million children, american born citizens here, who

have at least one undocumented parent. and that resonates in the latino community. that is a derogatory term. maybe it hasn't resonated with the mainstream public, but i promise that is something that has received coverage in spanish language media. people are surprised to hear it coming from mr. bush with his open family ties to the mexican american community. and the bar will be higher. it will have to be 47% based on an estimate from latino decisions research. >> and joy let me play you a sound bite from trump's interview with "time" magazine. >> i get my views from, you know, the media, a lot of the views. frankly a lot of people do. the views that you will see during those 10 and 15 minute segments or during a reading of a story are not a lot different than jeb sitting around with a policy group if it really has such a thing. it sounds good. >> so, i mean -- i want to ask you seriously -- >> i have no words.

>> let me ask you this. is that something that is kind of like an anti-elitist approach that can resonate with folks outside the belt way? >> in a word, yes. if you want to understand why donald trump is succeeding, my term for it is because he's ratchet. he is reality tv. he comes across as an every man. yes, he's constantly going on about how rich he is but he also sort of behaves a lot like a lot of ordinary people do. he's saying, hey, i get my information on military from watching tv and watching "meet the press." well, most people go me, too. you're just like me. i think that those things are helping him in the short term partly because you have to remember a lot of the people down with donald trump in terms of this primary campaign are not really political. they don't like politicians or politics. they can't stand politicians. they're sick of them and he is the anti-politician. >> and kate, let me play you one more bit from the exchange last night in the town hall that took place. i'll get your reaction afterwards. >> jeb bush is a low energy

person. for him to get things done is hard. he's very low energy. >> mr. trump doesn't have a proven conservative record. >> i would say between common core, his active love on immigration, and skin in the game with iraq, that's a third one that we've now added, i don't see how he's electable. >> even on immigration where it's, look, it's the language is pretty vitreal lick, but hundreds of billions to implement his plans is not a conservative plan. >> so who do you think is winning this exchange? >> i think for the time being people are looking for entertainment and donald trump is an entertainer. and i'm not -- there are a lot of good candidates that are conservative and have qualifications that would be capable of holding this office. but donald trump is an entertainer. that's what he's good at. he's done a masterful job of grabbing the attention of all of the media in this country and

he's riding that right now. i don't think his support is growing. i think it's pretty stagnant and at some point people will get tired of the shtick. >> one word answer from all three of you. donald trump with a bald eagle. >> strategery. >> katie. >> the opposite of bald. >> we'll have to leave it at that. thank you very much for joining us. now to former president jimmy carter opening up about his battle with cancer. hours ago an extraordinary scene, president carter announcing he's been diagnosed with melanoma that has spread to his brain and he will undergo radiation. carter told reporters his initial reaction to hearing the news. >> well, at first i felt that it was confined to my liver and that the operation had completely removed it. so i was quite relieved.

and then that same afternoon, we had an mri of my head and neck and it showed up that it was already in four places in my brain. so i would say that night and the next day until i came back up to emory, i just thought i had a few weeks left. but i was surprisingly at ease. i've had a wonderful life. i have thousands of friends and an exciting and adventurous and gratifying existence. so i was surprisingly at ease. much more so than my wife was. but now i feel it's in the hands of god whom i worship. and i'll be prepared when the day comes. >> he said he hadjññr received e calls from every living president and this afternoon president obama tweeted president carter is as good a man as they come.

michelle and i are praying for him and rosalyn. we are all pulling for you, jimmy. joining me now with more on his illness is dr. natalie azart. can you walk us through the diagnosis and how serious it is? >> sure. so basically it appears they were evaluating a nodule or lump or lesion in the liver and when they did a biopsy of that, they determined that it was in fact a melanoma and what made that interesting for people to understand, we nomly think of medical though ma melanoma as originating on the skip and traveling from there. but 15% to 20% it can actually -- the primary is not of found or they don't know where the primary skin cancer was. but it's already metastasized or traveled from the site of origin at the time of diagnosis. so they did the liver biopsbiop scanned help with a pet ct to see where the tumor may have

also traveled, they discovered the four lesions in his brain. that's what we know as of this morning. >> taem hfamily history is alwa big issue. here's what he had to say about it. >> i don't think there is any doubt that my descendants have in genetic challenge from the pancreatic cancer in my mother-in-law. so whatever the doctors recommend for blood tests or things like that as a precautionary measure for the other family members, i think that will probably be put into effect. but i haven't discussed that with them. >> is genetics playing a role in this do you think? >> well, yes. certainly family history and a genetic predisposition is one of the vopge esstrongest risk fact are blistering sunburns and multiple moles on the body. in terms of first degree family members, there is sometimes up to a 50% higher chance for them to get melanoma.

it's not a blood test. they just need to get screened yearly, follow the recommendations, you though, for cancer screening for melanoma screening. but other than that, there's not much else that the family members really should do at this time as far as i know. >> doctor, thank you very much for that. coming up, three firefighters lose their lives battling an unpredictable blaze in washington. we'll get a live report. plus according to a new poll today, one third of voters in florida, ohio and pennsylvania say hillary clinton is honest and trustworthy. i'll speak about that with clinton's press sect. > secretary. and the first hurricane of the season is headed for puerto rico. more on danny's path ahead. plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. be a morning person again, with aleve pm. watch as these magnificent creatures take flight,

now to washington state where three firefighters are dead and four civilians are injured after a wind shift in the firefight. around 100 wildfires are are currently burning across seven states. washington's governor spoke moments ago about the firefighters who lost their lives. >> we know that these fires have burned a big hole in our state's heart. and with the loss of these three firefighters, we know the smoke is still there and thick, but it will not obscure their incredible act of courage. >> leanne gregg is just miles away from the chelan fire. it seems that the weather has changed the outlook. is it working in the. >> adam thierer: their favor or on against them? >> reporter: the weather is changing. you can see the wind is kicking up. it started about an hour ago.

it will continue to get worse where the gusts could be up to 40 to 45 miles an hour. which is dangerous, an understatement, for what the firefighters are facing up there. they say that this kind of wind can create a torchlike condition for the fires. it's very unpredictable just like the small winds that turned a small fire into the deadly blaze yesterday. the winds shifted the fire and it turned back on the firefighters who lost their lives. they're working very hard this morning to try and come up with containment of some of the lines. they're also doing aerial drops, dumping retardant. they have done mitigation work to try to save some of the homes. many homes are threatened. horn 1,0 more than 1,000 people were asked to leave last night because the fire was so aggressive and many of the

request for information about the work arrangement for one of hillary clinton's closest aids, huma. she was allowed to do outside consulting work and a freedom of information act request was filed looking for information about that. the state department says it searched all the 55,000 pages of e-mails that former secretary clinton turned over and found nothing spochresponsive, but to judge sullivan ordered the state department to get in touch with the fbi and let the state department know, tell the fbi to let the state department know if fbi investigators find anything on the server related to this freedom of information act request. so this is the first time a judge has said anything about the fbi's investigation of the server which is really looking into whether or not classified information was improperly stored. judge sullivan said today about the whole freedom of information act back and forth on this issue, quote, we wouldn't be here today if the employee had

followed government policy, referring to former secretary clinton. >> all right. pete williams, thank you. with questions about her use of a private e-mail server continuing to dominate headlines, the cam pkacampaign pushing back saying she followed all laws. brian, good to see you again. let's start with a poll, a new one, shows that 64% of florida voters, 63% of pa a voter, and 6 60% of ohio voters say clinton is the not honest and trustworthy. is this evidence that the e-mail story is hurting her or not? >> well, actually there is shall questions already being raised about the methodology will behind this poll in that it over sampled republicans in the krit battle grupd states. in florida, the sample was nine

points more republican than it was in 2012. in 2012, quinnipiac got it right with respect to florida and now they're saying it will be plus nine republican. if that's the turn skrout in 2016, if that many more republicans are showing up, then republicans will certainly do well and people will bring to the polls certain feelings about hillary clinton. but we think the premise is off in all those battleground states. >> there were reports earlier this week that some of the close allies of the former secretary of state and democratic allies were concerned about her handling of this situation. what is the cam aen doing to reassure allies and close supporters the situation is under control and one of the potentially get worse? >> there is a lot of misinformation out there, so we're attempting to educate the voters and supporters about what is true. republicans in particular have been trying to conflate some of the reporting that has come out about the nature of the review that the justice department is doing. if you listen to house republicans, you'd think that it was criminal in nature. it's not. you'd think that it would be target being hillary clintthink.

it's not. so we're explaining that everything she did is permitted by law. at best this is a dispute among different agencies within the government. >> we're still far away from any potential head to head competition, but a hypothetical one has the former secretary of state ahead of donald trump in the latest poll by 6%. compare that to several months ago where it was double digits. what does that say about candidate clinton? >> if we are fortunate to win the democratic nomination and we get to face donald trump, no one will be happier than hillary clinton. if you look, he's leading a race to the bottom on issues like immigration. jeb bush is already tacking in his direction in terms of deploying the defensive term anchor babies. he said he couldn't think of any other substitute term.

i can think of one. how about natural born citizen. so we're happy to have that contrast on the immigration issue that jeb bush is now following this donald trump's foot steps. >> you're saying that you wouldn't be happier to see anybody else except donald trump, but would you say that you are taking him seriously take as a candidate and what he's doing? >> we think it's where the republican party tstands on isse after issue. and the effect on the gop brand could be irreparable. >> and a new poll today suggests joe biden's numbers if he were to run again gaining traction. there is favorability there. are you at all concerned about a possible biden run for the democratic nomination? >> no, not at all. there is great respect for vice president biden, great respect for him within our campaign. a bunch of our senior aides on our campaign have personally worked -- >> do you think he will run? >> not sure.

but he's more than earned the opportunity to take the time to make his own decision and whatever he decides, we will run our own campaign and we've always assumed that we would have a competitive primary and that will remain unchanged regardless. >> there is another issue gaining a lot of traction and that is the issue of birth right citizen ship. former secretary twhooeeted thee called babies. your reaction. >> this shows how out of touch and backwards the republican field is and donald trump is not -- i think what we've learned in the last few weeks since the republican debate is his frontrunner status is approach to be quite durable and as a result it's creating a race to the bottom where all the other republicans are attempting to match his rhetoric on this issue. and that will only further alienate hispanic voters that don't trust the gop in general. >> and one person who is giving the former secretary a run for her money is bernie sanders. he's been reluctant to criticize

hillary, but he does say she's not as progressive as he is. why should a democratic primary voter choose hillary clinton instead of bernie sanders? >> actually if you look at all the polling breakdown, you see her favorability among democrats is sky high. consistently in the 80s. so i think even among those voters who support bernie sander, they won't have any problem supporting hillary clinton in a general election. >> thank you very much for coming in. appreciate it. we go now to st. louis where things are relatively calm after a night of tear gas and fires. the unrest came after an 18-year-old was shot and killed by police. according to authorities, he pulled a gun at the officers as he fled a house where a search warrant was being served. the officers involved have been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. police say protesters then threw glass bottles and bricks at the officers. the protesters say the officers gave no warning before firing can miss sisters of smoke and

encourage others. >> you heard lieutenant haver say the mental part was the hardest, even though it included five mile run in under 40 minutes, 12 mile march, 49 pushups, 59 sit jumps, three parachute jumps. what is your reaction when you hair the m hear the mental side was more challenging than the physical? >> it doesn't surprise me a witness. i've read up on both of these young officers and i know they're both great athletes in high school and college. being a good athlete is something that gives you a leg up in the military. it's a very physically demanding profession. but these schools like ranger and s.e.a.l. training, they're so demanding physically, but mentally challenge, do you want to give up, keep going. and i heard her say just keep on

going. but you've seen the stats and many enter this course, don't mass a phase and then say i don't want do this anymore. but not these two. not the other 94 that are graduating tomorrow. and that's the kind of soldier you want on your team. >> well, they certainly have the physical and mental qualifications, the two will not be able to serve in the ranger regimen due to the current ban. do you expect that to change by the end of the year? >> i don't know. i think these two made a lot of believers out of nonbelievers today by showing that they're physically capable of passing and drauti ingdrau graduating t school. i think the military especially army is going through this whole assessment in a methodical way and this is just one more assessment tool they can use to show that women are capable of doing these very demanding professions. they have been doing this for two years. they have another i think one

january as you said is the deadline for the final assessment of what units will be open to women. and not those that can't be. services have to justify that. but these two have just demonstrated and put to rest the physical capability. >> general, your book is called "a higher standard." in your experience and throughout your years of service do, you believe that women face a higher standard in the u.s. military? >> when i joined back in 1975 and we still had the women's army corps, i joined knowing and believing that i was always going to have to hold myself to a higher standard to be accepted in this man's army so to speak. and have a good reputation. but what i found is that all the good leaders that i served with throughout the integration of women into the regular army, they held themselves to a higher standard. and in the military, they take an oath, you're subject to the

uniform code of military justice, you have standards for everything that you do and the good leaders that i served withheld themselves and encouraged their subordinates to do themselves to a higher standard. >> general, our nation's first four star female general, thank you for joining us. still ahead, hurricane danny forms in the atlantic. will it hit the united states? we're tracking the first hurricane of the season. plus ready for your close up. nasa's curiosity rover captures incredible selfies while exploring the red planet. the amazing snapshots from mars just ahead.
