7:11 am
actually, that was an accident. >> the bitter democratic divide turning into a debate over debates. for the republicans, it's now a state by state fight for delegates. this past weekend, north dakota and tennessee, it appears ted cruz outperformed the performance. matt and savannah? >> peter alexander on the trail for us, thank you. let's bring in nbc news political analyst nicolle wallace and mark halperin, the managing editor of "bloomberg politics." >> good morning. >> sometimes you can't look at the week ahead until you put a period on the week you've experienced. on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being terrible, what kind of a week did donald trump have? >> 37. >> that bad? >> there is material to go against him. >> 8.32. >> not that bad? >> i try to stay by the rules, unlike nicolle.
7:12 am
he still has a huge delegate lead. i don't think his supporters were bothered by anything that happened. it emboldened the people. >> so many of the comments he made last week, mark, got him into trouble. instead of staying quiet, he goes out and gets an interview to the "washington post" over the weekend. one of the things he says is the country is headed for a very major recession. if any other candidate said that, if the president of the united states said that, the markets would go crazy. >> it's bad timing for donald trump to be doing controversial things. the party is focusing on electability. phycology matters as much as delegates right now. all the comments make people look at him in the party, some of the people, and say, maybe this isn't the right person. >> speaking of phycology, there was a write up in the "new york times" that collected the evidence on how trump might do in a general election. mr. trump has become unaccessible to broad swaths of americans, including large majorities of women, non-whites, hispanics, voters under 30,
7:13 am
those with college degrees, and independents, too. >> the phycology of trump's supporters is what you have to watch. they are -- he said a few weeks ago he could walk out on fifth avenue and shoot people and not lose support. that may be true. it turns out, you can't shoot from the hip on national security. all those groups you named, especially women and independents, they don't do reckless things in the voting booth. he's feeling like a dangerous and reckless choice on matters of national security. >> as we look to wisconsin tomorrow on the democratic side, mark, if bernie sanders wins in wisconsin, and then has two weeks of no other contests leading up to new york, what's the effect on the clinton campaign? >> again, it's phycology. he's going to draw huge crowds here. there's going to be a debate here. if he weren't behind in delegates, this would be a toss-up race. he has more money, raising more, states that are favorable coming up and a line of argument
7:14 am
against her that is appealing to democratic voters. she has to have two weeks of pain she can end if she wins in wisconsin. >> mark and nicolle, appreciate it. breaking news overnight. happened at one of the nation's busiest airports. newark had to be evacuated because of a boiler room fire. the fire broke out about 1:00 a.m. fire was put out and the building reopened. a few hours later, the fire rekindled, forcing yet another evacuation. several flights were cancelled and others delayed. this morning, the terminal is up and running again. we've got another big story on the aviation front this morning. alaska air announcing a deal to acquire virgin america, the ninth largest u.s. airline. the agreement is said to be worth more than $2 billion. and will make alaska the nation's fifth largest airline. the seattle-based airline outdid

jet blue airways. the deal will have to be approved by government regulators. now to the backlash over a law in north carolina that opponents say discriminate against people who are gay, bisexual and transgender. hundreds of people packed a church for a rally in opposition to house bill 2. it would allow transgender people to use the restroom of the gender that's on their birth certificate. businesses are demanding that north carolina appeal the law. a government wide review is underway to consider whether to cut federal funding to the state. al is off today. we have dylan here in terms of more of a look at the weather. >> some areas will see nice weather. southeast, highs close to 80 degrees. we'll dry across most of florida, too. the midwest will get chilly. temperatures below average. in the southwest, breezy today but sunny and warm temperatures, even in the 90s in the desert southwest. that's a look at the weather

7:18 am
police. soon after, a public apology. wambach writing on facebook, last night i was arrested for dui in portland after dinner at a friend's house. those that know me know that i have always demanded excellence from myself. i have let myself and others down. with two olympic medals and four world cup appearances to her credit, the police report indicates wambach failed sobriety tests but was polite and cooperative. i take full responsibility for my actions, she wrote. this is all on me. i promise that i will do whatever it takes to ensure that my horrible mistake is never repeated. the car brand mini, one of wambach's sponsors, pulled ads featuring her from their facebook page. other sponsors haven't said what they'll do. wambach was released on her own recognizan recognizance.
