and then president george w. bush. nbc national correspondent peter alexander has more on all of this. peter, good morning to you? >> hey, matt, good monday morning to you. this line of attacks has clearly infuriated jeb bush, criticized for being too passive and trump's repeated jabs for much of this campaign. this time he's all in defending his brother and taking aim at republican party's front-runner. >> this morning feud between donald trump and jeb bush is boiling over, this time a fight over bush's brother and 9/11. >> i don't want jeb bush to say my brother kept us safe because september 11th was one of the worst days in the history of this country. >> my brother responded to a crisis, and he did it as you would hope a president would do. he united the country. >> reporter: the dispute started simmering sglid when you talk about george bush, i mean, say what you want, the world trade center came down during his time. >> hold on. you can't blame george bush for that. >> he was president, okay? don't blame him or don't blame him but he was president.

fierce back and forth this morning. this is from his campaign's website enough is enough, it reads, but analysts said time going after trump is time lost and defining yourself for voters and time until the first vote is cast is running low. >> peter, thank you. >> on the democratic signs are there new signs that vice president joe biden is leading into a entry into the race? nbc's kristen welker is live on that beat this morning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. sources close to the vice president say a decision could come any day now and most democrats agree a final answer can't come soon enough w.haven't joe biden nearing a decision, he attended mass sunday speaking out briefly to the press. although not exactly answering the question on everyone's mind. >> does joe biden need to get in now? >> the continuing mystery of joe biden. >> joe biden speculation continues. >> reporter: the vice president spent most of the weekend with

indication about his future plans. instead paying tribute to his late son beau who encouraged him to run before he passed away. >> as my son beau used to say, just keep moving forward. >> reporter: now, as for hillary clinton, she takes a break from the trail to prepare for a chrystal test. on thursday she testifies before the committee investigating the attack against the u.s. consulate in benghazi. biden watching all of it as he deliberates, well aware his window is quickly closing. savannah, matt. >> all right, kristen, thank you very much. what is at stake for hillary clinton as she prepares to testify before that committee? >> reporter: well, matt, that's a good question, and the reality is the stakes couldn't be higher for hillary clinton. that's why she's taking the prep time so seriously. if she's does well, she could turn the page not only on questions surrounding her handling. benghazi attack but also to some extent on the controversially over her e-mails which she's going to be questioned about as well. clinton can't afford any missteps or to lose her temper.

you'll recall she did that momentarily the last time she testified. now, as for biden, he could wait to make an announcement until after she testifies, but his supporters are urging him to announce a final decision beforehand arguing he could look calculating if he waits until her testimony, and that could undercut his argument that he's running for his own reasons and not because clinton is somehow a weakened canned day. matt, savannah, back to you. >> kristen, thanks very much. if the presidential race moves forward, we want to let you know that donald trump will be joining us for a live town hall meeting with new hampshire voters. that is next monday, a week from today, right here on "today." story mention tds at top, the emergency landing at l.a.x. overnight triggered by a dispute between passengers reportedly over a reclining seat. nbc's tom costello covers aviation for us. tom, what's this one all about? >> reporter: that was flight 2010, 137 passengers on board, and witnesses say one of the passengers tried to put her seat back and the passes jer sitting

like al nasser and that his death could be a blow to efforts by damage to reinforce the operations in syria. there is, however, another way to look at this. there is something of a rivalry going on right now with both the u.s. and russia carrying out air strikes against isis operatives in syria, against al qaeda operatives in syria, and this time this weekend u.s. officials say it was us, not moscow, that killed this senior al qaeda leader in syria. matt, savannah, back to you. >> richard engel on this story, thanks very much. here at home millions are waking up to the coldest temperatures of the season foe far. i knew it was cold when matt wore a snuggie into the studio this morning. >> oh, my. that's a real treat we all wait for. i've got to show you some weather video we've got in as snow in upstate new york. right near my alma mater oswego. mexico, new york, not too far got 9 inches of snow. snow stretching from pennsylvania all the way into

new england today, but it's okay. things are going to get warmer, all right, so don't get too upset. let's show you why. the good news is we've got this dome of high pressure. all of it slides to the east. we've got a return flow of air. that's warmer air. the jet stream up to the north. chicago by wednesday is 76 and st. louis 84 and tulsa, 84, nashville 78. 30 million people under some sort of a freeze or frost warning this morning or watch from new haven to cleveland down to huntsville, but the good news is, look at this. we see a change. today's highs, anywhere from 5 to 15 degrees below normal. but watch what happens as we get into the week. that return flow of air, new york, 75 by thursday. 74 in norfolk and 76 on thursday. charlotte will see a temperature of 77. atlanta, you'll get up to 78 degrees, so the good news is you can put the snuggie away. we always know it gets real when you bring in the union sewn with the drop seat. that's when it's really cold.

game after telling teammates he felt dizzy. he was medevaced to the hospital where he died the next day. officials say he suffered an aneurysm though the exact cause of his death has not been determined. cameron's friends and family are heartbroken but don't believe football is to blame. >> they feel that if cameron wasn't on the football field, cameron could have been in the car and this would have happened. >> reporter: mat these is the sixth high school football player nationwide to die after a game since the school year started. six players so close to the beginning of the school year is unusual. last year five died from football-related injuries all season. three deaths a year is the average. in an effort to reduce deaths and injuries, every state now has laws to prevent concussions. there's a limit of 90 minutes a week of full contact play and at lto high, the coach says there's a trainer at every game. >> everybody just automatically assumed that it had to have been a football thing, you know. he never took a shot to the

head. it wasn't anything. it was just a -- it happened on the football field. >> reporter: those who knew him say cameron matthews was a talented athlete, a terrific student and much more. >> anybody that has children of their own, that's how you want them to turn out, like cameron. he's just a great kid, great kid. >> reporter: grief counselors will be here at school today as students and faculty try to cope with this tragic loss. matt, back to you. >> all right. janet shamlian in texas for us this morning. thanks very much. >> to natalie now for the other news of the morning starting in the middle east today. >> that's right. good morning, everyone. secretary of state john kerry calling on israeli and palestinian leaders to take urgent action to end the violence in israel and the west bank. nbc's chief global correspondent bill neely is in jerusalem for us this morning. bill, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, natalie. amid more violence, a tragic story this morning of a young man who was waiting at a bus station when this happened. a palestinian grabbed a soldier's gun and opened fire,

killing the soldier and injuring five policemen and four others. the crowd thought the young bhoon was eritrean had something to do it. first of all the security guard turned on him and a man beat him so badly he later died in the hospital of his injuries. another example of how the innocent are getting caught up in the fear and the fury here, and a furious argument here today over a concrete wall 15 feet high that israel is building around one arab neighborhood. palestinians are calling it collective punishment, and it's not clear how effective would be in stopping these attacks anyway. meanwhile, secretary of state john kerry this morning called the violence senseless and called on israeli and palestinian leaders for urgent action. he'll meet them later in the week, but it real isn't clear how much influence he or any of these leaders can have in stopping the killing. back to you, natalie. >> all right. thank you, bill neely in jerusalem, thanks.

in fact, kids are twice as likely to get head by a car on october 31st than any other day of the year. now safety experts are warning about the latest costume craze, the invisible kid costume, a full black body suit that even covers the child's face. multiple companies make it. the packaging evening warning about impaired vision but some bragging it will make your child disappear into the pitch black night. as a safety expert, what do you make of this? >> terrible idea. kids won't be seen, especially if they are darting out into the street on halloween night, we can expect, that and they can't see. take a look at this. there's no way for kids to see out of this. >> i want to show our viewers what it looks like. put this right over the lens. this is what the killed sees out trick-or-treating. absolutely blake. you can't see them at driver and they can't see you either. >> bad idea. >> reporter: so we set up an

experiment. i'm behind the wheel with our safety expert. my producer is dressing this child mannequin in the black body suit. >> we're in a typical suburban neighborhood and i'm placing this mannequin right in the middle of the street. can you see it right now with the camera light off but turn the light off and the kit blends right into the night and we'll see if jeff can spot this before it's too late. we know the mannequins are here but don't know where they are. >> kids who are younger than 10 don't understand speed and distance so they don't understand when cars are coming at them how fast or how close they are. >> we keep driving and out of nowhere. >> right there, jeff. >> i still don't see it. >> i know. it's really hard, almost impossible. >> oh, it's right here. watch again from a different angle. you can't seat mannequin until right there and by then you can't stop. i flew right by this. a second later i would have hit this child. >> this would not be a static child, a mannequin. this would be a kid running in

the dark like this. you probably could have hit this child. what was it like to be in the car witnessing this? >> completely scary. >> reporter: by the way, the body suit comes in brighter colors too. it's halloween, we want kids to dress up however they want to dress up. here's a solution no matter what they wear. safety experts say you should wear these. put your kids in the glow in the dark brace letz and the glow in the dark necklaces. that way no matter what they are wearing drivers will be able to see them as they come down the road and keep your kids safe. bring the lights back you. seems like the dumbest idea possible. >> worst costume idea. >> and have glow sticks not just for that costume but all costume. >> jeff, thanks very much. coming up, are you getting your tickets? why this is a very big day for fans who can't wait to see the next "star wars" movie. >> and dylan is in the original room with trace morgan's big return to "snl," and the

>> my brother responded to a crisis, and he did it as you would hope a president would do. he united the country. mr. trump talks about things as though he's still on "the apprentice." looks as though he's an actor playing the role of a candidate for president. >> and the problem i think for jeb bush is he's spending most of his time responding to donald trump. >> right. and trump can say anything he wants and he has to take the time. >> and trump doubled down on that remark that he made by saying 9/11 wouldn't have happened on his watch because he wouldn't have allowed, you know, the immigrants into the country so it is getting hot. >> yeah. >> you wonder where it's going to end. >> right. >> but in the meantime, hopefully it doesn't end before monday, october 26th, that's because we've got an exclusive town hall with donald trump next monday on "today." >> that would be really awkward. >> if he all of a sudden got out. >> pancakes and politics again.
