earlier. it turns out the writer of that article actually helped out don jr. with his speech. robin. >> all right, tom, thank you very much. now to the controversy that still surrounds melania trump's convention speech and those accusations that she plagiarized michelle obama's words in 2008. jon karl has the latest for us. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, robin. while two of the trump children sang their father's praises last night, the trump campaign is still dealing with fallout from those remarks by melania trump. the moment melania trump finished her prime time speech monday night, it was all smiles on stage. but within hours, her strong performance was overshadowed by reports that portions of her 15-minute speech bore striking similarities to first lady michelle obama's 2008 convention speech. several phrases echoed almost word for word. >> you work hard for what you want in life. >> that your word is your bond, that you do what you say you're

that your word is your bond and you do what you say. >> the only limits to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work hard for them. >> the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them. >> reporter: on the convention floor some delegates said heads should roll. a pretty big mistake. >> it's a huge mistake and it's an embarrassment for mrs. trump. it's an embarrassment for the campaign. >> reporter: trump wreentsly fired campaign manager agreed. >> whoever wrote it should be fired. >> reporter: the trump campaign insists the speech's similarities were not signs of plagiarism, just similar themes. >> comfortable that the words that she used are words that were personal to her. >> reporter: overnight the late night comics had a field day. >> was melania trump, she gave this -- she gave the speech of michele obama's life last

>> reporter: and the # be famousmelaniatrumpquotes joking about her making up phrases like you can't handle the truth. luke, i am your father and i have a dream. the white house refused to say whether or not the speech was plagiarized but did encourage reporters to look into how it was written. >> as relates to mrs. trump's speech i'll let all of you weigh in on that, try to learn more about how exactly it was written. >> reporter: the trump campaign says that nobody is going to get fired over this controversy. and i am told that it was a family friend that helped write those controversial passages which may help explain why nobody is going to get fired. as for michelle obama she has had no comment on any of this. george. >> okay, jon karl, thanks very much. i'm here with the chair of the trump campaign, paul manafort. thanks for joining us. you're probably sick about talking about this melania trump speech but as jon karl said it's

been done by a family friend and that's why no one whether be held accountable. >> we don't know who it was done by. as far as we're concerned it was melania's speech. we're talking about 50 words out of 1,400 and the thoughts are part of the speech but the speech itself talks about her immigrant status, her love of country, her love of husband, these are her stories. these are her messages. what she communicated to the american people monday night is a genuine message from her heart and the end of it. >> don jr.'s speech, one of the speech writers wrote that but have you figured out how to get a program to prevent this from happening. >> we have a program. that's why every other word i write is blanked out. >> donald trump was happy with how it went. >> he was very happy with how it went. it was one of the highest rated speeches of the convention so far. what we're happy about is the speeches we put onto the program that we wanted to

on communicatingo the american people all have scored highly. melania's speech, rudy giuliani's speech, several of the speeches from some of the americans whose lives have been affected by policies of the obama/clinton administration and then last night, donald trump jr.'s speech and chris christie's speech. >> let's talk about chris christie's speech. you saw the crowd go on to their feet with that chant "lock her up." is that what the delegates think, that hillary clinton should be in jail. >> yeah. >> is that what you think? >> i think what the people in this hall feel she should be prosecuted for alleged crimes that the fbi director sort of listed her clearly and then chose -- >> chose not to prosecute her but they believe she should be in jail. >> when you start with the secret meeting on the tarmac two days before an investigation in the fbi two days before a whitewash of it and then one day before the justice department says, okay, we don't even have

>> do you think bill clinton affected this investigation. >> we feel that that was not just a happening -- meeting to talk about golf and grandchildren, no. >> that influenced the decision of the fbi director? >> i think that that probably communicated information that was going to be helpful to her in her testimony saturday. >> that's quite a charge. >> that's how we feel. >> in the speeches so far of this campaign what we haven't heard too much is what we heard from trump throughout the primaries, nothing about the muslim ban, nothing about a wall paid by mexico, nothing about scrapping trade agreements. are we going to hear those issues from donald trump tomorrow night? >> look, the purpose of this convention is to do some things that haven't been done during the course of the campaign. in the campaign primaries he was competing against 16 other republicans and it was to separate his vision from theirs and clearly he was successful at doing that. at the convention this week we're trying to show other parts of his personality, some of which you heard in the speeches of his wife and his daughter and son and we'll hear more of tonight. we feel that the amerin

they don't know the personal side of him. they don't know -- really they know he is a businessman but don't understand in business he's used his abilities not to just create great empires but treat people who have never had chances in life to opportunities. >> so none of these signature issues tomorrow night? >> i didn't say none of those signature issues tomorrow night. as you know in a speech to accept the convention nomination you lay out your vision for the campaign. by the time he lays out his vision for the campaign we hope we've laid a picture of the candidate who's broader than just a candidate for president, a father, a compassionate human being, a successful businessman, so all those pieces will wrap together and then he sul rises it all in his vision. >> two nights to go. thanks for coming in this morning. >> thanks, george. >> thank you very much. we bring in our political team, matt dowd and donna brazile waiting to weigh in. lease pick up on day two. it was seemed to be more anti-clinton than pro-trump. they were talking about chris christie's speech when they got

was it an effective strategy. >> well, i think the second night was a much more effective program than the first night because the second night was actually on time and things were delivered in the moments they wanted to deliver them. i think the difficulty with this convention and the democratic convention coming up but especially this one is donald trump is a very defined figure and it's going to be hard to redefine him in any real way so i think the campaign decided the only way they can win this race is to talk about hillary clinton. >> but you saw just there you heard from mr. manafort, donna, they will be trying to redefine him over the next cull of days. will democrats let him do it? >> they've tried to pivot, george, as you well know for two months and donald trump has been unable to pivot with a teleprompter or without a teleprompter. last night what we had i believe is a night where they threw the kitchen sink at hillary clinton. they still haven't built what i believe to be a bigger tent for donald trump to grow his campaign, expand his reach to the american people. but last night i tnk

that an unconventional anti-establishment candidate took over one of the major political parties. >> amazing situation to me. this is -- also feels in this hall like an arranged marriage. it feels like there is a whole bunch a part of the establishment. garry marshall passed away and took a play from hollywood to the tv series called "the odd couple." you feel that way here. you feel like this is an odd couple matched up and have to figure out how to bind it together. >> we'll talk to eric trump coming up. you speak about garry marshall. we are celebrating him, passing away overnight after an amazing career famous for making america laugh and chris connelly has a look at his impact on hollywood and the world. >> reporter: as a writer, director and producer, in tv and the movies for over half a century, garry marshall made actors funnier and made audiences laugh. ♪ sunday monday happy days >> hey, observe.

this point for an exit agreement regarding roger ailes. george. >> okay, rebecca, thanks very much. let's bring in our chief legal analyst dan abrams for more. maybe no deal but this suit was just filed two weeks ago. already thoeshting an exit. that didn't take long. >> no, and, look, a source close to the investigation tells me that part of the reason for that is that megyn kelly's alleged to these investigators multiple incidents of harassment and it's not just about -- >> multiple? >> the source tells me that multiple fox news talent, women both current and/or former have come forward to allege possible harassment by roger ailes and that's why it's moving so quickly, because it's so clear to the owners now that something needs to be done. >> but if that's true if there are multiple allegations from megyn kelly, multiple allegations from other correspondents, how could he get, i don't know, $40 million in severance a

contract. >> that's a business decision. that's a decision by twentieth century fox that they'll have to fight him legally so if they were to fire him and say you're not going to get anything, he would sue, say as he said publicly he said i didn't harass these women. i didn't harass gretchen carlson. i didn't harass megyn kelly and then there would be a fight with him, so for them, this isn't going to end up being sort of principal decision. it's going to be a business decision and if in the end they decide it's easier and cleaner for them to settle this, then they will. they may take the position, look, we're not going to make a judgment here about whether we think roger ailes harassed anyone. what we are going to do is try to end this by reaching some sort of settlement. >> real quickly, dan, what does this mean for gretchen carlson's suit? >> well, look, even if they settle with gretchen carlson, she sued roger ailes personally and so that lawsuit will likely continue and the more women who she can get to potentially

stronger her lawsuit could become. >> okay, dan abrams, thanks very much. all right, and standing by patiently through all this joining us now exclusively is he ahead of his big speech, eric trump, a close adviser to his father. >> good being here. >> for getting up here and sitting with us like that. what was that moment like last night? you're there with your siblings, it becomes official your father is the republican nominee for president of the united states. >> we were i think pinching ourselves. listen, we've worked so hard and my father put so much passion into it and became a politician 12 months ago and here we are throwing him over the top. we are such a close family and it was an amazing special moment. actually very emotional but amazing, very special moment for us. >> i remember when george and i talked to your brother in iowa. seemed like two years ago, the beginning of the year? five years ago. >> that was where the process began. what has this journey been like and do you have any mixed feelings about what your family will face going forward. >> it's been a wild

appreciated as kind of a traditional civilian being a politician. it's been wild. it's been fun. it's been energetic. we've literally seen every single corner of this country as we've gone through. that's a beautiful process and teaches the candidate and teaches the family so much about the political process, so much about the problems that this nation actually faces and it's actually a beautiful process. a lot more complicated than i never thought it would be. i always thought -- i was the guy that said, why don't they simply fight. have people vote via e-mail but it's such a beautiful thing to see every corner of this nation. >> you say you're not a politician. your brother sounded like one. >> he did a great job, honestly he did an amazing job and tiffany did an amazing job. i was so proud of her. she's 22, never done this before and came out and nailed it. >> bar was pretty high. >> the bar is high. the bar is high. >> sibling rivalry. >> we can take it. you know, we can take it. >> how will yours be different. >> i focused on the why because i think it's such an important question. why is pie

why does he care this much? why now? i really focus on the why and it's having, here's a guy who is kind of in the apex of his career, he does not need to be doing this. i hear from his friends all the time. you know, i would never do something like that. i mean the scrutiny, the this, the that, the time commitment, the stress, the aggravation. you know, why? for somebody who's become so successful who could live a beautiful cushy life at home, run a nice business and sit back and my father cares deeply about this country. >> did any part of it -- >> did any part of you want to tell him don't do it? >> listen, i think he always knew that he was going to be right in the path of the fire and, you know, but my father has never run from it. he's always run toward the fire and away from -- versus away from the fire. i think that's what has made him successful his entire career. when he becomes passionate about something he sets his mind to it and he does it and you see that as you sit in this arena. this incredible arena with this incredible passion and i'm proud of him. i am just proud of the man. he's done such

job. >> and what about yourself. we were talking about your brother. it was a very powerful, it was personal, political. very strong on policy. going forward if your father should become president, you've been a close adviser to him. will you have some sort of role in a trump white house? >> probably not. i mean first of all, if you ever made the call i'd be there in two seconds. the same goes for ivanka and same for don and we are very close. i would never not go to one of his debates. i will always tan by his side. that's the kind of family we are. no i'll probably very much be in new york running the hotels and golf courses and our other properties and if he needed something i'd be there in three seconds flat. i think when he wins this i think he'll go down to washington and i think we'll be staying in new york continuing his legacy, but we'll always be there for him. >> ivanka jokingly said to lara she was terrified about the speech she's going to give. what about you? >> certainly interesting. you see the size of this room. you see how it's telecast to 28

number is around the country. it's amazing. all eyes are on but i also took immense pride and wrote every single word. >> no speech writers helped you with that. >> zero. when you write from the heart and i'll deliver from the heart. the product will be what it'll be but certainly sincere and full of love and if you of emotion and, you know, that's how it's supposed to be. >> you'll enjoy it. >> i'll enjoy it. trying to live this crazy wild moment. >> well, i know it's going to be -- we know it's going to be a long day. really appreciate you joining us. >> thank you. let's go back now to new york and michael is going to tell us what's on the big board or as your father would say, huge board. >> huge board. all right. thank you, robin. coming up on our big board, aka huge board, "ghostbusters" star less si jones takes a stand quitting twitter after vicious attacks. how the site is responding to that this morning. then trump versus the band queen. the battle brewing over their hit song "we are the champions" plus an exclusive look behin

>> this is somebody going after her in a racist and misogynistic way twitter not able to handle those abusive comments. you can report abuse on twitter but it can take months to resolve. in this specific case the person who was -- this very high-profile case, she reported it directly to jack dorsey whose is the head of twitter. >> leslie did. >> yes, he reached out to her. the person -- the ringleader on this attack banned permanently, but twitter saying, people think that we don't do a good enough job on abuse and we agree, they say that they are working on their policies and they told us last night that they are really going to try to take the onus off the person being abused. >> because it's a mob mentality. one person starts and get other people to join and that's what happened. are they developing any kind of technology to help? >> yeah, the good news here, michael is that you can harness the mob for good. periscope which is the video streaming service owned by twitter, they're

time. when the rnc says he had approval what they mean there's proval in the arena through copyright law there is a blanket license that allows people to play those songs and the artists to be paid so when the cleveland cavaliers come out on the floor an they actually are the champions, they don't have to get queen's permission either, that license has been given to the arena already. >> feels like a loophole somehow to me, joe. do you think he'll use the same song again on thursday night for his big moment? >> i think knowing the trump campaign, that's a decision that will be made about 30 seconds before he walks on stage, maybe he'll be carrying an ipad and change his mind while walking on stage and hear two song, what we know queen's asked him not to. he believes he has the legal right and we know that when you say please mr. trump, he doesn't always listen to please. >> all right. >> that's the truth. >> joe, we thank you so much. we move it on to topic number three. t.j. holmes, where are you, cleveland, of course, just one day to go before donald trump gives his big speech as w

always think as a kid when you read something how do they know that about me? and that's where you learn about the universality of experience. books are important because it's a way for a kid to find themselves. >> you're helping them with this freckleface strawberry and the really big voice. i'm glad you wrote it and kids love it. so "freckleface strawberry and the really big voice" is available now, julianne moore, everybody, and thank you so much again. up next, it is workout wednesday. yeah, i'm taking these kids outside with julianne and we're going to work out with tracy anderson and all that is live right there in times square. >> that would be
