for republicans. >> that does i for now. we pick up the coverage live from rio right now. thank you so much. >> we honestly don't know what happened. >> we have the latest. and another conservative candidate is set to join the presidential race. who is this undercover operat e

operative? this is as trump has a very big speech today. he ramps up his attacks on hillary clinton. >> unstable hillary clinton and you saw that. you saw that where she basically short circuited. and the gold star dard another told metal and new fierce 5 do not disappoint. wow. what a nice at the olympics. let's begin with the breaking news. a travel nightmare has been entolded. a system wide stop following a computer failure that lead to all delta flights being halted

everywhere in the world. we are live. i can only imagine the nightmare there. what's going on now? what can you tell us? >> reporter: good morning. this was all caused by a power outage here in the atlanta area. storms has blown through there. they are investigating to figure out what exactly happened with that. a few minutes ago it is really thinned out. the boards are working again and the kiosk where customers come in to get their boarding passes. the situation being alleviated quite a bit. limited departures to underway here in atlanta. >> and the keyword there is limited. did i have any sense how long some peechl would be struck, knows what a situation like this

is. it is a domino effect. things start to get backed up. do we have a sense of how what it will mean throughout the day? >> the ripple effect could be huge. delta is warning of large of scale cancellations throughout the day. he says his was delayed. you're right. there were delays from rome and london all the way to lax. certainly could be quite a bit of delays. they get to check the status of their flight often, chris. >> all right. thank you very much for that update from atlanta. let's get to that water park

tragedy from kansas. a big investigation underway after a boy died while riding a water slide. right now the water park in kansas city is closed. investigators trying to figure out how this happened. we have the latest. this morning a full scale investigation at the schlitterbahn water park after a ten yoer ten-year-old died on the park's attraction. it is the world's tallest, more than 16 stories high. a raft plummets at more than 65 miles per hour. it was on the first steep drop where he some how went airborne. they say they inspect the attraction and an outside group does the same at the start of

every sn season. >> a full investigation is necessary. >> kevin took a ride on th the verruct, which in german means insane. >> it is the baddest thing that has ever been built. >> park guests say they were terrified. >> i have two 12-year-olds with me today and i freeaked. i ran. >> i our thoughts and prayers are with them. >> today the entire park is closed including the water slide. nbc news. and now to politics and a big speech from donald trump who will be laying out his economic vision today. hallie jackson joins us live from new york. i understand they told you this is what they consider their biggest speech at the general election to date.

obviously he is coming off a horrible series of problems. so what do they think today can accomplish? what's the goal? rvlg >> reporter: it is really the first major policy speech. i think when you ask what you can expect to see from trump it is twofold. one is the policy side and the other is the political side. you can have him stitching together old and new poll tibs when it comes to reform. some of that is proposing on a tax side. you may see trump try to issue some kind of temporary more to rum broad di speaking. we are waiting to get more on that. it is to renegotiate what they

put into place. all of it intended to try to show con trags between him and hillary clinton. donald trump hoping to come up with creative different ways what he believes are ways in the nation. he will tie it and talk about helping cities rise to dominance again in the words of one senior campaign adviser. on if other hand you also have donald trump issuing this speech on monday, today. you eluded to it. the controversies that to his refusal to endorse paul ryan and john mac canccain. it is something republicans want him to be talking about. they want him to come out and address the number of people who are no longer in the work force and tie that to hillary clinton. so him doing this today is a

signal to republicans that he is working to get on script. we keep talking about pivots. the one thing about donald trump is his ability to pour controversy. some are not get tg signal. what can you tell us? >> evan mcmullen will be introducing a bid he has virtually no name reck nation. swooel how impactful it may be. not throwing his hat into the ring. >> all right. thank you so much. back here in rio, what a

night. the great michael fiphelps has done it again. the world's most decorated olympian gave his teammates a huge lead. and kate di ledeki now owns the ten fastest times in the 400s. there was a stunner in tennis. the williams sisters losing from the duo, the first time they lost a doubles match. we'll move onto today's all a around full-tiinal. is this is best womens team in history? and after a busy team, team

>> i don't. good luck with. i don't know what any of this means at this point. it is problematic and all that. i don't know how it helps unless it is another way to stop trump. we'll see if it has any legs at all. >> yeah. the name recognition obviously a problem. >> i think they said all morning he had 16 twitter followers. that will work. >> and no wikipedia page. big economic peach, do you see this speech as a sign that the trump campaign or mr. trump himself realizes he has to get on message and stay on message.

>> i do. i think a number of alarm el. and i think that a lot of the conversation. i understand it was part of his desire to sort of make this next step, to show that he does have something of substance to say. we'll see how it planned. the real test is not just one speech. it is lead di to fete this i think if he is able to sustain that in a way in which it does two things, one, keeps miz coalition of supporters granded

to him but also ats those slet vetters itting onto him -- >> and a second has to do with your we you new he has this message. he has been going after hillary clinton saying she short circuited an answer. he said she dounded like it got four pi nrk osh part one focus n attack on hillary clinton? >> absolutely. donald trump needs to get out of hillary's way. that story with, you know, ch--

donald trump got in the way of that. so i think now the idea is sort of settled in finally that, yeah, i'm probably better off if i'm not the center of the news. i don't have to be the guy ordering the the news of the day. i get to reemphasize certain things about that. that that's what you're dinning to see him? lausically saying teem need to get behind. >> i think for guys like george p, he understands who his constituencies are and he

probably has kind of reconciled if fact that he is a proelk guy as well. you're not going to give oup. hi want john for him. for hom -- i think it is an torrent investment by that since and doing this things that he is starting to do now and then more of a. >> i just have breaking news that the william milli krps can endorsed hillary clinton in a statement. you new polls that are out. clinton up 12 and georgia up 4. in arizona trump is up go two.

>> the bottom line is this. she made a mistake and she said over and over again i made a mistake and i will fix it and i apologize for it. >> we are live at campaigns aclosz the state today. you asked clinton about all of this. it is her answer that's sparking even more questions. tell us about it. >> reporter: hi there. good morning, chris. last week i had a chance to ask secretary clinton about some of her answers regarding the e-mail controversy. she said fbi director james comey testified she was truthful and consistent in terms of her answers about e-mails. that has gotten a lot of critici criticism. >> what i told the fbi, which he said was truthful, is consistent with what i have said publicly.

i may have short circuited it and i will try to clarify. >> republicans are pouncing on the term short circuited. clinton officials pushing back and stressing what secretary clinton was saying was that claims comey was indicating that her testimony to the fbi is truthful. it is something james comey did say and she never send or received e-mails that were marked classified. comey received three e-mails were marked classified but were marked poorly. today she will try to turn beige. she will argue and point to economists that have said around trump administration millions of americans would actually lose

jobs. hi hasn't spent a lot of time talking about issues per paining to family care, paid child care and family leave, those sortds of things. secretary clinton seems to be turning the polls around. a washington post poll found 49% of american say they trust her. >> thank you so much. donald trump will be giving the major economic speech in a few hours. secretary clinton seems to raise more questions every time she gives answers about these e-mails. is there anything she can say to put this behind her once and for all? >> donald trump keeps showing her trust is going up with the american people.

the fbi says she hhe has been truthful. >> he keeps on. even with some improving that encounselor his on nsty. i think we get choeser people want to compare the two candidat candidates. you're seeing it in the numbers and i think you'll continue to see it. he talks about trade but he doesn't create jobs here. i think as each day we get closer to the election you'll see people really focusing on the substance.

>> so donald trump will be in your state today. i understand you're actually going to go. do you think it's a stein that trump can't believe michigan is in play. trump repeatedly blasts secretary clinton. i just wonder if you think his economic speech could. >> i think it is very important to talk about the issues he is going to talk about. i'm a girl born and bred here. i thought this is great last summer. when he starts really talking he opposed the auto bail out ayman

gree currency is a problem. when you thinking she producing his ties. i want to see them talk more about how he will create jobs in the united states not just inflam tear long waj that will torque to itment i wouldn't she country approved of this waplan? >> what if they say i'm tired of same old thing. one argument that i have heard including in michigan is he has been a successful businessman. we believe he can do better for the economy and this country.

>> i am not afraid and i talk to the guys. i say to them, okay. you want to shake things up? you have to live with the reality. you have to look at who has the record. he knees speks ports. he said we are not going to build auto plants in michigan. they will take anything. that is not what workers want to see either. we have to make sure they know the language and pollties of both candy didatecandidates.

inside the gym here in rio, its american women looking all but unstoppable. the u.s. gymnastics team will get a chance to defend its 2012 title in tuesday's all-around competition. but last night, wow, they nearly swept the qualifying events. simone and aly raisman. but gabby douglas despite having the third highest score overall will not get to compete because of a rule allowing each country to only advance two qualifying athletes. with me now, shawn johnson, who competed in 2008, winning a gold

and three silver medals. they call them the fierce five. i don't know if that describes it. have you ever seen anything like this? >> i have never. i mean, in the entire history of gymnastics, nobody has seen it. normally first and second place is separated by a point or two. and our girls are separated by ten points total. so they're unstoppable. they're flawless. >> and they seem to be having a good time. i don't sense the tension. >> not at all. the tension isn't there because the pressure is not there. they're the best and they just have to go out and have fun. work as a close-knit group of girls like they are. and so you can tell. >> i've been covering gymnastics for a very long time, but never having done it, it's hard to appreciate what they're doing now, even versus what was being done, particularly by simone biles, what was being done four and eight years ago. >> it's the difference between men's gymnastics and women's gymnastics. the sport has evolved so much, but simone has taken it to a

different level. >> doesn't very do a move most of the men can't do? >> a lot of them. she literally could compete with the men and probably still win. she's that good. >> let's talk a little bit about what happened last night. >> yes. >> all-around, that is the -- of all the gold medals, that is the gold medal you want. the women's all-around. gabby douglas, the defending champion, she is -- you know, she has a history of peaking at the right time. this seems to be having for her at this olympics. by all rights, coming in third, she should be in the finals. why isn't she? >> she should. and it's a frustrating rule that has, you know -- kind of plagued the u.s. for many, many years. but there's a rule that states each country can only qualify two girls into a medal round. and what's hard is the u.s. could probably qualify four, five, six, on an entire national team. ali had the meet of her life and so godid gabby and simone.

we would take first, second and third. >> could they win first, second, third in the all-around? >> easily. >> really? >> yes. >> but she did qualify, gabby, for the unevens, so she's still going to be in the competition. i was with her family last night. i've known them for many years and i was in the stands with them when gabby won her first gold four years ago. they seemed okay, i have to tell you. they seemed like they were in good spirits. i think they were just proud of the fact she had done all these terrific routines. >> absolutely. no really u.s. gymnast has been this successful. gabby is an old vet, and a team captain, and her family has been through it before. they're happy to see her succeed again. >> the reactions of aly raisman's family are going crazy. hard sitting in the stands. you said it's hard for you. >> it's so hard. i almost look like aly raisman's parents watching.

it's easier having control. when it's taken from you and when you are relying and praying these girls make it through, it's really nerve-racking. but i love watching her parents. >> is this the best u.s. gymnastics team? >> by far. >> the best team ever of any country? >> i would say by far. >> so what should people look for tonight with the men? >> the men qualified in second or third. they should, you know, be a contending team. it's probably the strongest men's team we have had. and hopefully walk away with a silver or gold medal. >> wow. it is going to be fun to watch, isn't it? shawn johnson, nice to see you. >> thank you, you as well. >> take a deep breath. coming up, the clinton camp respond to attacks over her shirt-circuited comments. stay with us. you're watching msnbc.

portuguese. we'll see you later. >> wow! how fun. >> that's all i know. diet coke. that's the other thing i know. thanks so much. we have a big show this morning for you. coming up in two hours, donald trump begins his latest attempt to convince voters that, yes, he is taking this presidential election, and his republican nominee status seriously. trump is scheduled to appear before the detroit economic club to explain his economic vision for the country. the speech expected to include new and old policy prescriptions, along with a few hits at the expense of hillary clinton. who is going to be speaking there later this week on thursday. more importantly, the speech may respect trump's last chance at a reboot after a disastrous week that included crediticism over his of attacks of a gold star military family, and republicans who support hillary clinton for president. new polling highlights trump's campaign concern, abc news and the washington post have clinton up eight.

on sunday, one of trump's biggest supporters had some messaging problems when asked about the high price tag that some analysts have pinned to trump's economic plan. >> mr. speaker, his numbers don't add up. >> of course not. i think historically, no candidate's numbers add up, particularly in the media. >> all right. so we want to start with nbc's hallie jackson in midtown manhattan. still many republicans have trump on probation to prove he deserves being the gop nominee. walk us through what this speech means now and this week for trump's campaign. >> reporter: well, right now, when you look at the policy side of it, thomas, it means that trump is trying to get his, quote, economic vision out there. i'm told by senior campaign adviser that this is intended to be sort of laying out a mix of policies we've already known about from trump, with some new proposals like, for example, the deduction of childcare expenses for parents. the question after the speech is
