knock it out, fast. with abreva. he apologized to me and i expect -- i accept his apology. and we are moving on. >> that is melania trump right there breaking her silence defending her husband donald trump after that "access hollywood" tape leaked. she's also taking on the media. we'll have a a moment. also right now, donald trump is digging in on his claims that the election is rigged causing a rift with his fellow republicans. trump telling abc news he is not convinced paul ryan wants him to win. hillary clinton is facing new questions about her e-mails as she steps up her ground game in traditionally republican states and sending her secret weapon, michelle obama, to arizona, yep, just three weeks until the election.
7:31 am
nobel prize for literature but the committee is still knock, knock, knocking on his door but he's not answered. not returning their calls or e-mails and they say they're not giving up. they'll keep on trying to reach out to him and i guess that's what we're doing right now. >> he did a couple concerts, didn't say a word about it. >> but he feel confident he'll show up. >> maybe he is super humble. who knows. that was silence. did you hear that silence? wow. >> i prize and then keep it quiet on the down low. more from melania trump. as we said she's standing by her husband blaming the media for spreading lies about him and linsey davis has a closer look. >> reporter: good morning. the republican presidential nominee's wife is now talking candidly in her first interviews in months and she dismisses the "access hollywood" recording between the former host billy bush and her husband as simply boy talk and says bush egged
7:32 am
does not count as sexual assault. >> he apologized to me and i expect -- i accept his apology. and we are moving on. >> reporter: melania trump not only defends her husband, she goes on the attack. is it fair for the media to bring up bill clinton's past or for donald trump to bring up bill clinton's past? >> if they bring my past, why not? >> so they're asking for it. >> they're they started. >> reporter: the woman typically known to keep a low profile is no longer shying away from entering the fray. >> oh, poor melania. don't feel sorry for me. don't feel sorry for me. i can handle everything. >> reporter: per stand by her man position is somewhat reminiscent of hillary clinton in 1998 when her husband was president and faced accusations of sexual misconduct. >> this vast right wing
7:33 am
since the day he announced for president. >> it was left wing and left wing media. >> reporter: the couple first met at a fashion week party in 1998. she told "harper's bazaar" she refused to give trump her phone number. instead she asked him for his and went on their first date soon after. in 2005 they were married and a year later melania gave birth to their son barron. she's mostly stayed off the campaign trail to raise appearance at the republican convention this summer. >> the only limit to your achievements -- >> the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work hard for them. >> and your willingness to work for them. >> reporter: since speechgate she's stayed out of the limelyght. last week her legal team demanded an apology from "people" magazine disputing reporter natasha stoynoff's claims that sometime after she
7:34 am
the treat in 2005 and had a conversation with her. >> i was never friend with her. i would not recognize her. >> reporter: so as the campaign wipeds down, mrs. trump is hoping to land some punches before the final bell. >> people won't want to go against him but my husband is real. he's raw. he tells as it is. >> reporter: according to "the new york times," trump's aides urged melania to show her support for her husband by doing a sit-down interview with that idea. in her interview with fox news she is very clear she is her own woman and no one will make her do anything she doesn't want to do. robin and george. >> okay, linsey, thanks very much. let's bring had cokie roberts to talk more about it. cokie, as linsey pointed out in the piece right there, real echoes of hillary clinton both in 1998 and 1992, question today is how effective was it? >> probably not terribly effective in the same way that hillary clinton wasn't terribly effective in those interviews.
7:35 am
another is that melania trump in some ways is not terribly recognizable to a lot of voters. during the republican convention i interviewed a number of republican female delegates who basically said that they couldn't relate to her. she was too beautiful, she was too rich and that they didn't see her as an authentic person in the same way that people see michelle obama, for instance. >> she was very much going after the it seems like that was part of the strategy in having her come out and speak, cokie. >> well, in some ways i think that -- that in some ways was her most effective part because it was about her as opposed to being about her husband where they went after me so why not. but, again, that brings up her past and gives people excuses to put out nude pictures of her which is not terribly helpful to the campaign. >> i think the other part you would say to be effective is see
7:36 am
>> well, which, of course, she did in the statement and now she's done publicly, as well but, again, i don't think that that is something that people would expect her to do anything else but accept his apology. but, you know, look, looking at voters who basically say they don't care, we've got a very partisan electorate right now, what i do think might be true is that it might have energized some of hillary clinton's voters to say we don't want this raddatz was here picking up on what you were just saying, cokie, martha raddatz was here, she spoke to voters who basically said, it doesn't matter. it doesn't matter what he did. so as a bigger deal being made out of it than it really is? >> well, i think that -- no, i really don't think so. i think even if it doesn't matter to a lot of voters who are very firmly set in their place that it has started a national conversation, robin.
7:37 am
little empowered by saying this is -- this is not okay and there's a whole twitter site not okay with thousands of women on it now telling their own stories, so i think this has a life even beyond this campaign. >> yeah, the reaction has been extraordinary when you really break it down. all right, cokie, thanks so much. >> good to be with you. >> coming up on the big board? >> a lot. up next what fellow republicans are saying about dal claims the election is rigged. and also what one guy did to get himself banned from the tennis court. wait till you see the caught on camera meltdown. all that coming up in just two minutes and we have mr. mcenroe to talk about that. >> patrick mcenroe. >> there he is over there. that was invigorating! you're probably wondering why i've just carved a giant wooden tiger. well, the answer is that a real one would maul me. i've crafted dr. whiskers here as a visual aid
7:38 am
because people don't like that. come here to buy a car. dr. whiskers won't pounce. nobody will. ? ? ? life can be messy... but with crayola color wonder... it doesn't have to be. don't you wish life could be this mess-free? color wonder. find it in the crayola aisle. sets each sold separately. if your sneezes are a force to be reckoned with... you may be muddling through allergies. try zyrtec? for powerful allergy relief. and zyrtec? is different than claritin?. because it starts working faster on the first day you take it.
7:39 am
just talking smack here with patrick mcenroe. we're talking about the '91 u.s. open, go figure. >> thanks for the memories. >> welcome back. time for our big board. our team of insiders standing by
7:40 am
mcenroe is here at the table. we'll get to mac in just a moment. let's start with donald trump. ramping up those allegations that the presidential election is rigged. overnight at a rally in green bay, wisconsin, again hammering home the claim. >> they even want to try to rig the election at the polling booths and believe me, there's a lot going on. did you ever hear of these people. they say there's nothing going on. people that have died ten years ago are still i mean, where are the street smarts of some of these politicians? >> and we got jon karl joining us now from the battleground state of florida which was the e epicenter of the last presidential election controversy. and don't have to tell you, trump is not letting this one go, jon. >> oh, he is up obsessed with this everywhere he is talking about this. this morning he is still tweeting about it and this is a
7:41 am
transition of power, the integrity of our election systems. he is saying that they don't have integrity, so i asked one of the republican leaders he's talking about last night, i moderated a debate here in florida last night between the senate candidates and asked marco rubio about this. listen to his response. >> there's been a lot of question about the legitimacy of this election. donald trump has said this election is absolutely being rigged. >> this election is not being rigged and why it's not in florida and why i hope he stops saying that. why he should stop saying that. we have 67 counties in this state. each of which conduct their own elections. i promise you there is not a 67-county conspiracy to rig this election. >> well, and that -- >> here's noerz thing, robin, when you talk about this, local election officials in much of the country are republicans, fact, in the two biggest battleground states, ohio and florida, the two top election officials are republicans.
7:42 am
ensure the elections are fair and because of what donald trump is saying do you think this year they're extra careful? >> reporter: oh, yes, i think there will be an eagle eye on all of the election largely because of what donald trump is saying but really this was the case before donald trump uttered the word rigged. i mean, i was down here covering the florida recount in 2000, believe me, after that process, people did a big scrub of the lawyers for both parties, this is something that has been looked at very carefully for a long time. >> good point there, jon. >> all right. well, thank you, jon. now to outrage over a 911 dispatcher accused of hanging up on more than 800 emergency calls. she's now facing two misdemeanor counts with potentially more to come legal analyst areva martin joining us now. investigators say she may have hung up on even more callers
7:43 am
fatality, but have you ever heard of anything like this? >> no, michael. this is an outrageous case. this woman crenshanda williams may have hung up on thousands of callers and as you said two really serious cases, one involving an armed robbery where there was a fatal shooting and a second one involving a woman who became unconscious. her husband's calling 911 talking to miss williams trying to administer cpr and she hangs up on him. now, fortunately for t survived this ordeal. but these are very serious accusations against someone who was entrusted with a very serious job of providing emergency assistance and she just said she didn't have time for the callers. >> accusations, areva and also charges. two misdemeanor charges. what do you make of that? >> well, i think the law that's being used to prosecute miss williams wasn't really designed for someone in her situation.
7:44 am
dispatcher whose job was to provide assistance. but at least she is facing some jail time. possibly up to a year and her supervisors are also being disciplined. >> boy, that's the last thing you expect when you call 911. >> areva, thank you. we move on to the controversy surround a top ranked it ennis playing, australia's nick kyrgios banned the rest of the season when he seemingly just quit during a match. take a look. doesn't even try for it. so, patrick mcenroe, let's talk -- >> horrendous. >> you played at the top level. sport if thank you for saying that. >> you have. >> that's up for debate, but, okay. >> not at all. when you see something like that -- >> well, your first reaction is one of disgust and disdain, okay, but then when you take a step back i think you have to
7:45 am
cry for help. i mean to hit a serve like this, to literally tap the serve as he did is basically telling everyone that i don't care. i don't want to be here. i want no part of competing in this match. this guy has a history of doing things like this. let's also say that he's a very talented player. he's got some swagger. he's got some personality. he could be a grand slam champion if he gets his act together so i think the atp tour did the right thing, they banned him for the rest of this year but gave h psychologist and gets some help which i believe he needs that he could get the ban reduced and be ready to play at the australian open start of next year. i think that was the right decision by the tour. >> maybe that will take him to the next level. >> it should. it could and i think for him he's got to look in the mirror and realize that he's got a problem. i think he realizes that and he has said in some facebook comments and some twitter comments that he realizes he

anything but simple. so i had an important conversation with my dermatologist about humira. he explained that humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear, and many saw 75% and even 90% clearance in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. ask about humira, the #1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists.

8:14 am
>> you got nearly 10% of americans have this and one this three are sort of so-called prediabetics so that's a lot of people right there. how much exercise do people need to reduce this risk. >> so this is really interesting. they looked at 28 studies that followed thousands of people over many years to try to address that and what they found was if you do the 30 minutes five times a week which is recommended, it greatly reduces the amount -- your risk of getting type 2 diabetes. if you do more than that your risk goes down eve if you do less, if you do only ten minutes a day you get some benefit compared to people who do nothing so every bit helps. you shouldn't be put off by the fact i don't have enough time. >> more is more and timing was also very important in the study, correct? >> so, a separate study looked athe people who have type 2 diabetes. you got your 30 minute, do it as one block or break it up. so they had people for one period of time do it in one block of 30 minutes and the
8:15 am
after eating a meal and when they found if you do the ten minutes just go for a ten-minute walk after you eat your meal it greatly reduces blood sugar, 22% lower blood sugar with just a ten-minute walk. >> the science behind common sense. >> is that just because your engine so to speak is working and processing food better. >> walking helps you digest but it's controlled by ins wlin and when you exercise it helps our cells use causes our muscles to burn up that sugar so, you know, there's good reasons for why that bounces out your sugar and a great thing to do. >> in addition to exercise what else can people do. >> we talk about it all the time. if you can maintain a healthy weight or if you're overweight losing just 5% of your body weight, that's enough to dramatically reduce your risk of having type 2 diabetes. it's hard to do but it's really worth that effort. >> all of it doable too. >> it is. >> even a little bit of exercise. even a little bit of weight.
8:16 am
those is a great way to get started. it really helps your chances of succeeding. >> good information. thanks. coming up we'll hear from maks. he's joining us live. he's off the ballroom getting ready for diaper duty.
