radicalized when he came here 17 years ago as a refugee. >> pete williams on this breaking story overnight. pete, thank you very much. let's talk politics. the presidential race, donald trump held his first rally in vermont last night blocks actually from democrat bernie n headquarters. the event drew a lot of supporters and protesters. let's start our coverage with nbc's peter alexander.morning >> reporter: town of burlington, vermont, was on edge anticipating trump's visit, especially after his campaign handed out thousands more tickets than they had seats.se, is a deep blue state, not typical trump territory, and the candidate spent a lot of his night battling he liberal bastion of burlington, vermont, bernie sanders country, the trump show felt more like the set of jerry springer. >> trump, trump, reporter: repeatedly interrupted by protesters the republican front-runner taunted his unwelcome guests.

get them out. confiscate his coat. you degrees below zero outside. >> reporter: even berating his own security. >> come on, security. move faster. we need security that moves come on, move faster. >> pretty soon they are going to get so nasty we won't have any more protesting, you know, that right. >> reporter: after handing out kets for the 1,400-seat theater, the trump campaign enforced a loyalty test to get in. pledge allegiance to trump or go >> the second we get inside, security sees we have a bernie pin on, even though we have tickets, they grab on to us and they firstbly eject us out of the no questions act. >> reporter: trump insisted he was simply taking care of his people. they are loyal to me, amend i am lime to they will, he said. the billionaire is also attacks on hillary clinton. >> women's rights are human rights. >> reporter: posting this incendiary instagram video challenging clinton's advocates while flashing

anthony weiner and bill cosby. meanwhile, trump's closest rival ted cruz is dismissing johnments seemingly backing trump's questions about his eligibility to be president. john mccain is going to endorse marco rubio. >> reporter: and rubio trying to solidify his place atop the establishment lane of the gop is locked in a bitterforth with chris christie. >> this guy has been spoon fed every victory he's ever had in his life. is that the kind of person that we went to put on the stage against hi don't think so. she will pat him on the head and then cut his heart out. >> reporter: marco rubio has been calling out christie for there was one other headline out of the rally in vermont. trump vowing he'll get ready of gun-free school zones on his first day as president. as trump put it, you know what achool zone is to a sicko, it's bait. matt? >> peter alexander. peter, thank you very much. as for the clintons, well, they

newtrump. nbc's kristen welker has more on that side. story. kristen, good morning to you. >> reporter: matt, good morning to you. that's right.n is sticking to strategy, trying to avoid an all-out war of words with donald trump. the clinton campaign believes engaging with trump would onlyissue, but the questions aren't going away. i was with former president bill clinton on the campaign trail here in cedar rapids yesterday. a number of reporters asked the criticism from donald trump, about the fact that he continues to raise his past infidelities on the campaign trail. here's how president clinton one question. >> donald trump is again today making an issue of your past transgressions. do you want to respond, and are you worried that your past could hurt your wife's >> i don't have a response. if he wins the republican nomination we'll have plenty of time to talk about it. i'm trying to help hillary winlinton campaign still believes that president clinton is the best surrogate

they believe that he helps with working class voters,n a state like iowa which is must win. meanwhile, on a much lighter note during president clinton's second campaign event yesterday, he was in the middle ofll of a sudden his phone rang. take a look at what happened next. >> there are other issues that keep americans up and -- my phone's ringing. hillary back and explain why i couldn't take it. >> reporter: a reminder to always put your phone on secretary. president clinton off the trail hillary clinton will be with women advocates including lena dunham and abby wambach.

>> let's turn to rachel host of "the rachel maddow show" on msnbc and nicolle wallace. ladies, good morning to you. rachel, starting with you. the clintons have decided we're not taking the bait not going there, not going to do it. can they continue to do that or do they have to engage. >> >> sometimes they love to engage with donald trump because sometimes it's reallyo the democrats and hillary in particular. >> reporter: on the issue of bill clinton's transgressions. >> they will do it when it suits them. strategically they have a larger issue of does it help you as a? does it help the democrats for the general election to elevate donald trump as face of the republican party? sometimes they want to engage on can thinks about the republican party they want him to think about drew. on an issue like this they don't want to to become the basis of everybody's discussion on the morning mp going after bill clinton on his infidelities and transgressions personally, is that smart politics, and if it is why are the other following suit? >> well, i think that all of the normal standards, all of the

been durand and discarded in this campaign season. >> yeah. >> and i think trump isthe dominant figure in the republican party. he stands at almost 40% nationally. so the notion that there's any other republican standard hip has sailed. what i think the peril is for the clintons at this moment is so far every attack launched by trump and every battle trumpwhomever, trump has prevailed in the minds of the viewers, in the voters, so when people see these attacks and the clintons make the ich is so anti-clinton of the '90s era, the whole strategy of rapid response and of responding to every attack ands pioneered by bill clinton's advisers, now legendary advisers from the '90s. the notion that they are going to ignore the attacks andl go away is foolish. >> in the few seconds we have left, can we turn to the rhetoric heating up between christie and rubio, christie really let a bomb fly with the about rubio.

cut his heart out. that combination of ideas is very ing. >> we're not going to forget that line. >> it's a good reminder that chris christie when he's on offense and when he has a target that he perceives to be a soft target he is a little bit of a he's kind of an effective bully. he does it for political effect and it lands. we all on set went ooh when wejust said about marco rubio. >> he can land a punch, nicole. >> he can, and the backdrop that the line was delivered on was that there is a, you know, hote establishment lane because there is a real chance that somebody other than trump could win iowa and somebody other than trump could win new hampshire and whole race restarts. >> that's what makes it so exciting. >> rachel and new york. programming note, by the way, donald trump will be joining chuck this sunday ons." meantime, president barack obama took on the hut button issue of gun control last night. the town hall meeting on cnn

executive actions to help combat the president mfa sized that he is, quote, not coming for your guns.>> i respect people who want a gun for self-protection, for hunting, for sportsmanshi all of us can agree that it makes sense to do everything we can to keep guns out of the hands of people who would try to >> i appreciate you taking the time. >> also during that event the widow of american sniper chris kyle confronted the president and challenged him on theeness of gun control legislation. >> we're at the lowest murder rate in our country. all-time low. >> right. >> of murders. we're at an all-time high of gunt? i'm not necessarily saying that the two are core late, but what i'm saying is we're at an all-time low for murder rate.

areas with the highest gun ownership, those are the places in some cases where the crime rate hasn't dropped down that much and the places where there's pretty stiff restrictions on gun ownership, in some of those places the crimes dropped real quickly so i'm not sure that there's a lation there. >> the president acknowledged his latest executive actions will not stop all attacks. the goal was to make a little progress, and as a reminder our entire show to the white house on tuesday, is day of president barack obama's last state of the union address. we'll talk to him and vice president biden will join us live, and we'll alsoial access inside the nation's most famous home tuesday morning on "today." matt, out to you in l.a. >> all right, savannah, thanks very much. let's talk now aboutns over the stock market after another brutal day on wall street. the dow dropped another 392 points on thursday. its biggest loss in three that caps the worst four-day

all that matters is employment.ut yourself in a box you lose sight of what matters.ernment has to get off this game of being very strict and very tight because the numbers are not bearing up employment. >> i know you're very careful about choosing your he past you have come on this show, jim, and said it is a time to sell. would you say that again about this time? >> no, i think that thoseat have come on, that i was able to avoid very big declines, there was systemic risk, maybe the system would fall apart. here we have to take somebut this, too, will pass and anyone who panics now is just going to be able to try to figure out how to get back in when we're a little bit lower. matt, that's the sucker's gamelay that with people's money at home >> you say it's going to pass because the fundamentals of the u.s. economy are strong in your opinion. >> i think overtime itlear that our country once again is a leader and we can avoid a lot of the repercussions whatever china is
