after the fact he tweeted mexico will not pay. and hillary clinton's camp pounced on it. a new online ad that says trump choked and lied about it. trump also lied out other details about his policy. >> reporter: this was the speech undecided voters had waited to here. >> i'm going to have a detailed policy address on one of the greatest challenges facing our country. >> reporter: donald trump with his definitive plans on how he would handle immigration. >> we will enforce all of our immigration laws. >> reporter: he focussed on the deportation of lawbreakers. >> zero tolerance for criminal aliens. i am going to create a new special deportation task force focussed on identifying and quickly removing the most dangerous criminal illegal im

the first time this was trump the diplomat. meeting with a foreign leader. and for all accounts he was polite, serious, a very diplomatic trump. >> think he was trying to show his presidential side there? >> maybe a little bit. and then he turned it off when he got back to arizona. and now a debate between what was said and who is paying for the wall. surely a topic not going to go away. >> i don't think it's over. >> more on that coming up. for now, the pacific storm madeline is now a tropical storm. >> maximum winds, about 65 miles per hour. >> president obama has just arrived in honolulu for a quick visit. back on the big island there could be damage and flash flooding and mud slides. >> joining us by phone, the

hawaii state senator who is a small business owner. thank you for joining us by phone. you were prepared for the worst, but tell us what it's like right now. >> well, it's windy and rainy, as you might expect, but it's not catastrophically so. i think we pretty much dodged a bullet in terms of devastating effects from the hurricane, at least as far as any neighborhood. there's a neighborhood facing the storm more directly, a low lying area that's probably being inundated, but we didn't get directly by a hurricane. that's a huge relief. >> senator, you said you dodged a bullet. unfortunately, there is another storm headed your way. what kind of safety precautions are on way for lester, and did all this preparation for the previous storm help things out, do you think? >> well, yes. i do think so. we prepared for another storm a few weeks back. and we started taking it

ezell two years ago. we were pretty well prepared. we're just hoping that its trek takes it far enough away that it's just a lot of rain. >> and senator, even though you're keeping your eye on the bigger storm, lester a category four right now, what sorts of precautions are you keeping in place, and speak a little bit about your businesses and how you've had to handle them. >> well, like most businesses on the east side of big island, we did close today and let all the employees go home and be safe before the roads got too bad. businesses have closed. mostly on this side of the island. i think some will do so tomorrow morning in kona as the storm wraps around to that side. that's about it. we've all taken precautions by removing anything loose that might fly around and

we have food, water, and maybe a generator. and there has been some power outages. i've been lucky myself so far. >> and senator, we've seen back to back storms whether one isn't so bad, people don't take warnings about the second seriously. are you worried about that at all and what do you want to say so to the those people? >> i think we all need to take hurricane warnings seriously, but i think we all take it very seriously. i think it will be good news -- it seems to be taking a trek taking it sufficiently far from the island. i think this will have been the worst, but we will be prepared. my neighborhood, in particular, was hit pretty hard by the hurricane two years ago. >> all right. state senator from the big island of hawaii, thank you for joining us. and stay safe. in the east tropical storm
