rubio, 11%. trump held three rallies sunday. they were tame compared to what happened on previous days. john dickerson spoke with the gop front-runner for "face the nation." >> mr. trump you said that you don't incite any of this activity. but at several of your rallies, you have said that -- protesters, you said about one i would like to punch him in the face. another you suggested it would be better if he was taken out on a stretcher, you suggested if one thought about throwing a tomato that, that your supporters should knock the crap out of them. so, how is that not encouraging the kind of behavior we are now seeing? >> well let me tell you. first with all the rallies i have had. i get more people than any body, by as you know, by a lot. thousands and thousands of people, 25,000 people is almost getting standard. you haven't seen one person even injured at one of our rallies. and, the cases you are talking about. the one guy was a bad dude. he was swing. hitting people. he was a very bad guy. and the police came in and they really were very effective. frankly some of the audience

i didn't mind that at all. >> they would have been hurt, frankly. the other one with the tomatoes told by secret service that there are two people in the audience we have heard that have tomatoes they're going to grow them at you. they have good arms that could do some damage. i said to the people before my speech started if you see anybody with tomatoes you got to take them folks, take them out. i think everybody understand that. >> you say no one was hurtd. there was a gentleman walking out. the video shows him being escorted out. then a supporter cold cocked him. he was a, hurt. there was somebody hurt. he wasn't doing damage walking out. he was cold cocked. you suggest you'd will pay for the legal fees will you pay for the legal fees for the gentleman. >> i am going to review it. i don't condone violence. i don't condone what happened to him what he did. because he got carried away. it's very unfortunate. but this kid was walking out.

finger up in the air as he was walking out. this man became very angry. again, i don't condone violence. the kid shouldn't have had the finger up in the air either. if that's what he did. i am going to take a look at the tape. i will let you know. >> so is that the threshold, is just the wrong gesture and it's okay to clock him? >> i think that is a terrible gesture if you want to know the truth. we can say the doesn't matter. i think it is a terrible gesture. it is interesting, these people are disruptors, they're not protesters, they're disruptors, professional disruptors in some cases. all they do. stand up and disrupt the if somebody did that at a bernie rally. many of these people come from

. people. audience is. bernie's rallies and did the same thing, i want to tell you nobody talks about it. it is a whole different standard conservative versus a liberal. if people went to their rallies like my rallies are disrupted, them and make all sorts of excuse as but how terrible it is. so, you know we mav two standards in this country. it any very unfortunate. the press is extremely dishonest. >> when you talk about the protesters, you said these are bad, bad people. we are going to take our country back from these people. these people do nothing. who are the these people in that case? well, i see people in the audience that, i don't think they have a great future. i think they're disruptors, i think they are not in love with our country. i think they, they, protest and they disrupt. that's what they do. i don't know if they do it for a living. i don't know if they get paid

for our country. and the people that come to my rallies, these are extraordinary people. these are great people. these are people that are really disenfranchised in many cases. now with that being said. we are very successful -- we have very successful people, we have the smartest, we have the best educated. people that aren't educated as well. if you look at the polls out of is most of them. if you look at the polls coming out i lead with hispanics, i lead with women, i lead with very well educated, i lead in all different categories. very proudly, i lead with evangelicals, with veterans. i lead in every category. i have everybody there. we really do have a young crowd. remember this, if they went to a hillary rally, although nobody cares too much about the hillary rallies because there is no fervor there. if they went to a bernie rally everybody would say what a terrible thing. they disrupt me from talking.

and by the way, you have heard me say it. don't hurt them. i'm constantly saying to the police. don't hurt them. don't hurt them. i don't condone violence. but some of the people are violent. >> let me ask you a policy question, at the debate you something i frankly use, i shouldn't be allowed to use it. when you talked about bankruptcy laws, how you took advantage of them. you and i talk about your taxes, you pay as little as possible. if you are president why would anybody follow the laws you put in place if they know you were taking advantage of the laws in the private sector? >> because i know the game better than anybody. i built one of the greatest companies. did a filing, one of the great companies, great assets. very little debt, tremendous cash flow. some of the greatest assets in the world. let me tell you, i use the bankruptcy laws just look other very successful people. i don't want to use their names. i could name ten people. the biggest peoplen all of business. it's the game we play. we use the laws of the land. we use it. and that's the way we play the game. as far as the visas are concerned. i'm not doing anything wrong. i think the, those visas shouldn't be allowed. but they are allowed.

of what you do. so, i will use it. i'm a businessman. now, that i have turned politician, i hate to say that, almost about myself. but now that i am running for office. i know the game better than anybody. i'm the one that can fedex all -- can fix all of this stuff. i never went bankrupt. you understand i never went bankrupt. take a look at business leaders. i have 500 companies. i have so many different companies. and a very few i will take advantage of frankly by using the laws of the land. as every other major business person does. >> that's what i want to ask about the playing of the game. when you were with ben carson who endorsed you this week, you said he was pathologic and then that both of you've said that was just politics. so you are saying it is just the game. but if the most serious things you say about a person are just politics it any just the game. then why isn't everything you are saying just a game and just

>> well that is politics. i mean say, bad things about people. and they say bad thing as but me. and actually, ben wrote it in his book. i just read sections of his book.ur car overheated... what are the chances? can you send a tow truck please? uh, the location? you're not going to believe this but it's um... it's in a tree. i wish i was joking, mate, but it's literally stuck in a tree. (car horn honking) a chainsaw? no, no, all we really need is a tow truck. day or night, geico's emergency roadside service is there for you. our bacteria family's been on this cushion for generations. alright kiddos! everybody off the backpack, we made it to the ottoman. i like to watch them clean, but they'll never get me on the mattress! finally there's a disinfectant mist designed for sofas, mattresses and more. introducing new lysol max cover. its innovative cap has a 2x wider spray

dissolves fast to unleash max strength medicine. let's end this. hillary clinton will try to stretch her lead over bernie sanders as five states vote tomorrow. our cbs news battleground tracker shows clinton up 30 points over sanders in florida. in ohio, clinton at 52%. sanders, 33%. in illinois, sanders is up 2 points. 48-46. sanders discussed the race with john dickerson. >> good morning, senator. donald trump says he might start sending protesters to your rallies. >> well, you know -- donald trump has been an incredibly die -- divisive figure. day after day his rhetoric is in citing violence. some of his supporters responding to the rhetoric by

by sucker punching them. you know, we have seen recently charges leveled against his own campaign manager. for assaulting a female reporter. so there is a lot of this -- feelings about violence coming from -- trump's campaign. i very much hope that he understands that in the democracy, people should be allowed to go to anybody's rally, peacefully demonstrate without fear of being beaten up. i hope he tones it down. this is not good for the country. >> do you encourage some of your protesters, protesters, supporters i should say, are going to these rallies would you encourage them to keep doing that? >> no, not to disrupt rallies. trump, look, i don't, i won't shock you john by telling you that donald trump lies a whole lot. he calls me a communist. that's a lie. to suggest that our campaign is telling people to disrupt his campaign is a lie. we don't. and some of them will do what they do.

once, organized any effort to disrupt mr. trump's rallies or anybody else's rallies. not what we do. >> in the contest this week with hillary clinton she has said that she was way out in front on health care back in 1993. she wonders where you were on that issue back then? what's your response? >> well i think there is a video or photograph or something of me by here side. look, i have always said that hillary clinton did a very, very good job as, first lady. she kind of broke the mold as to what a first lady should be doing. but to criticize me on health care is not quite fair because i have been a leader in congress from day one. in the fight for -- universal health care. to make certain that in the united states we join the rest of the industrialized world, guarantee health care to all people, terms of the affordable care act.

billion in community health now have health care who previously would not have health care. i have led the effort to take on the greed and the unconscionable pricing of the drug companies who are ripping us off. charging us the highest prices. i don't have to defend myself have played in health care. i do believe that we should move to a medicare for all health care system which finally says that health care is a right in our, to all people in our country, something which differentiates me from secretary clinton. >> have to talk politics here. on these election day, you had a big surprise win in michigan. real, momentum booster. clinton got more delegates on almost every election day we had. if that keeps happening she will get the nomination? >> well, john, to everybody's surprise.

were 3% in the polls. we were 70 points behind hillary clinton. since then, we have won nine states. eight of them by large margins. one in michigan was very tight. last week all of the pollsters predicted that we would lose michigan, by, by 15, 20, 25 points. well, we ended up winning. i think -- we have a lot of momentum in illinois. in ohio, in missouri. i think we are going to do better than people think in north carolina. and in florida. so we are looking forward to a very good tuesday. we are look forward to wing the democratic nomination. >> ohio is make or break for john kasich's presidential campaign. the latest poll shows kasich tied with donald trump there. kasich discusses his chances with john dickerson. -- i want to start with something you said about donald trump. you said there its no place for a national leader to prey on the fears of people who live in our

how exactly is he preying on fears? >> look, he has done a lot of name calling. and created a very toxic atmosphere where he is, look, you want to start with immigration? do you want to start with the things he has said, you know, about muslims? where does it end? it's putting one group against another. and it's created a toxic atmosphere. i am not going to till you in his rally, some of the people don't show up who want to create problems. that happens in all volatile situations. but you know, john. look, america's greatest strength is its people. and our greatest -- strength in people is when we are unified. and there is no doubt that, that he has run this divisive campaign and it is concerning to me. at the end of the day. he is not going to be the nominee. we are going to learn from this. and i am going to win ohio tuesday. we'll be competing all across the country. and a new day. wait and see.

others say too. voters are angry. he is not preying on fears. this is natural anger that is talk about that line a little . who are angry and then the politicians who poke at that anger. >> look, i think first there are people upset. they're worried about their wages which haven't gone up. bank. they get no interest. their kids are still living in their home after they get a college degree. these are real concerns. he was tapping into something out there t the reason i understand it. i grew up in that environment as a kid. the way you get the voters to tell them how you fix things. that's why i always talk about the strength of my record. in washington, helping the economy to take off or whether in ohio with creation of over 400,000 new jobs here. i also think you can walk into a room, john, of 100 people. you could put them in a really bad mood or you can walk into that same room and you can get

i notice this everywhere i go. because when i show up, i talk abut the way we can fix things. how people need to work together. and don't wait for somebody else to show up. begin to change the world in which you live. the hopefulness of it works. since i have been so positive. must be contagious was sweet, right. >> everybody behaved themselves. >> at the last debate. talking about trade. seems in the republican party. trade is now a bad word. you voted for nafta. donald trump is trying to use that against you. what happened to the, who its the promoter of free trade now in the republican party. >> sort of interesting, john. i have been a fair trader and free trader at the same time. in 2001. i've helped the steel companies to get a 201 trade restraint. so they could consolidate and be stronger. i have been saying for a long time.

process. when people cheat we shut their products down. doesn't take from the fact we have to be involved in the global marker. one of every five workers are connected to it. 38 million americans have jobs connected to trade. we do want to have free trade. and fair trade. and expedited process to say that when when you are cheating we will take action against you and include. manipulation of currency. >> politics you said you will win ohio. marco rubio said his voters should vote for him in ohio. are you saying your voters should vote for him in florida. >> really hard to tell your voters to go vote for somebody else. look, not campaigning in florida. my focus has been in this state. in illinois. look at the end this is not like stop somebody. this is my telling people the way the country ought to be run. and the experience that i have had. why i have had success. so i can give them the hope that we actually can pull the country together, remember we are americans before republicans and

problems. principles. >> mention americans before republicans. an argument people are using against donald trump. saying, some of your rivals seem to be wobbly in terms of whether they will stick with the pledge and support him. where are you on that? >> well i would look to support the nominee. he is not going to be the nominee. just not going to happen. i said at the last debate. he makes it difficult. we'll see how this go. he has, got to be able to lift people. stop dividing people. and the toxic environment must end. this is not making us proud. think of the videos shown all over the world of people slugging it out at a campaign rally. i mean there are people around the world shaking their heads. who are saying, what the heck happened to america? we'll be fine. the people are smart. they're going to make the right decision. in my opinion. >> the "cbs overnight news" will

>> i'll be damned if you are going to take hard working americans' money and drink it and waste it. >> reporter: when we spoke with former wounded warrior project employee eric milette in january. he was furious about what he called the charity's lavish spending at the expense of veterans programs. but his anger has subsided now that the charity's top two officials, nardizzi and giordano have been fired. >> i didn't do it for me. i did it for veterans wounded warrior project claims to serve. >> he is guardedly optimist ache >> for the first time in years he is guardedly optimistic about the organization's future. he agrees with fred and diane cane who raised $325,000 for the charity with golf tournaments that the ouster is only the first step. >> they snead to change the culture which in my opinion will require significant changes to

the executive team. i think they can right the ship. but it's going to take a lot of effort and it's going to -- take a lot of effort to build up that goodwill again. >> reporter: also weighing in the melia family which founded wounded warrior project in 2003. in a statement they accused nardizzi going so far as to remove any mention of the melia family from the wwp website and said donors have every right to be angry about the lack of stewardship shown by the immediate past leadership. the charity's board of directors conceded in a statement that some policies procedures and controls at wwp have not kept pace with the organization's rapid growth in recent years. and are in need of strengthening. but the board also insisted that a substantial portion of the donations given to wwp go to programs and services for wounded warriors. >> the board announced that while it searches for a permanent ceo.

executives that what goes around comes around. steve hartman found evidence of that on the road. >> reporter: a few months ago here at the hospital in milwaukee, nurse lynn bartos took a long hard look back on her career. after 44 years of sacrifice and devotion she wondered was it worth it? >> i invested a lot of my sef. into being a really good nurse. and did it really make a difference? >> reporter: she got her answer when she became the patient. >> lynn has rheumatoid arthritis. last summer during one of her doctor's visits she was treated by a new nurse named nicole cran >> just something on her face and her eyes, i thought, i knew

>> i do i have goose bumps right >> reporter: lynn first met nicole 28 years earlier. back when they both shared the magazine." it was an article about lynn and the special relationship she had with nicole. her patient at the time. >> she was a very lovable little girl. >> reporter: nicole with the whale spout of a ponytail had a problem. lynn, sweet lynny as nicole called her spent years nursing her back to health. but, that was then. >> nicole was this little girl that i took care of. now she is taking such good care of me. >> reporter: nicole says she doesn't remember much from those days. but here is what is interesting. she also doesn't remember a time when she didn't want to be a nurse. >> oh, yeah, i always wanted to help people. and i don't remember if i really just liked nurses. i always knew i wanted to be

can remember, she always wanted to be one. some might say that is a coincidence. but to lynn -- it is a godsend. >> this is just what i needed. it is definitely a gift. because now i know for 44 years i made a difference in people's lives.
