attacks. trump's campaign manager kellyanne conway is here standing by live to talk to george. we'll hear from her in a moment. first, to abc's tom llamas at trump tower. good morning, tom. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. campaign sources say those tweets and clashes with paul ryan are all part of the same strategy, donald trump wants to make sure voters know that he's not beholden to anyone, even the leaders of his own party. this morning, donald trump in an all-out war with fellow re >> i wouldn't want to be in a foxhole with a lot of these people, that i can tell you. >> but mccain is a brave man. >> by the way, including ryan, especially ryan. >> reporter: the republican nominee furious ryan told house republicans he would no longer defend him or campaign for him. and trump saying ryan in part inspired this tweet. it's so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and i can now fight for america the way i want to. >> the shackles are some of the

weak and ineffective people within the republican party, senators and others and paul ryan led to a certain extent by paul ryan. >> reporter: ryan's split with trump comes after that "access hollywood" video surfaced. trump on a bus bragging his celebrity status allows had him to grope women. >> when you're a star they let you do it. you can do anything. >> whatever you want. >> grab them by the [ bleep ]. you can do anything. >> reporter: although trump apologized for suggesting the controversy was overblown. >> well, first of all, locker room talk and most have heard it before and i've had a lot of women say, boy, i've heard that and heard a lot worse than that over my life. >> reporter: trump fully aware that moment could have cost him the election. >> if that's what it's going to take to lose an election that would be pretty sad. >> reporter: his campaign releasing this vicious ad attacking hillary clinton's health. >> hillary clinton failed every single time as secretary of

fortitude, strength or stamina to lead in our world. >> reporter: the ad intended to slow clinton's growing lead in the polls. trump's running mate having to calm some supporters were making threats if clinton wins. >> if hillary clinton gets in, i myself i'm ready for a revolution because we can't have her in. >> yeah, don't say that. there's a revolution coming on november the 8th, i promise you. >> reporter: now to give you a sense of the fracture between donald trump and his own this morning that shows a quarter of republican governors, senators and house members will not be voting for trump on election day. the paper calling this unprecedented in american political history, george. >> okay, tom llamas, thanks very much. now let's talk to kellyanne conway. thanks for coming back to "gma" this morning. you heard tom at the top saying this is the strategy now of mr. trump to take on his own party. how is that going to help you win? >> well, it's going to help him just take his message directly to the voters, george.

the rnc and us have a wonderful relationship. i talk to reince priebus several times a day and his chief of staff are in our tower most days and i'm happy they've provided so much of the ba is cyst for our ground game and field staff, so and i just want to say when we pay, when donald trump raises money like he did, millions and millions of dollars yesterday in fund-raisers, a lot of that goes to the party and helps -- >> as tom said you've gotten a quarter of senator, members of supporting donald trump. last night he said he doesn't want the support of house speaker paul ryan yet earlier he said he was losing because he didn't have it. >> enough of the pussyfooting around in terms of do you support us, do you not support us? the fact is some of these leaders have been wishy-washy and paul ryan has a job to do and the new president of the united states will go ahead and

at the same time -- >> does mr. trump want paul ryan to be the speaker if he's elected. >> that's up to the members of the congress. i hope it means we have a majority in the house, the senate and presidency. that would be the best indication that americans who are voting for donald trump for president also want a mandate for him to push through different pieces of legislation >> it's not looking like that right now. the latest polls have you down about nine points. falling behind in the electoral college as well and we just saw that ad that you are showing hillary clinton coughing and her stumble after that 9/11 ceremony. you've got a huge gap with women right now. how are you going to be able to make that up running ads like that? >> we need to take the message directly to them on issues they care about like -- >> her coughing and numbering. >> we're calling into question her record as secretary of state and, frankly, that ad we're releasing is called corruption and takes into account the fact that the clintons became -- thee

dollars in speaking fees -- >> right there you're making fun of her health. >> no, we're calling into her question whether she's got the stamina to lead. i think that's an important issue that came up in the first debate. >> in the second debate mr. trump said she always gets right back up. >> she does, thank god and when she fell that dad mr. trump said nothing about it except he hopes she's feeling well and glad to hear she's got a -- >> now you're running an ad. >> george, what does she do every single all she does is call him names and all she does is call into his question his character and we want this election to be not just about character but also about issues. nobody -- abc did an unbelievable report last night, i hope everyone will see it about friends of bill getting preference by the state department after the earthquake in haiti in 2010. this is not the way that the government should be run. >> i want to go back to another moment in the debate. mr. trump's threat to jail hillary clinton.

he's repeated it calling to are a special prosecutor and even his allies say that shouldn'ting the language we should have. michael mukasey says this would be like a banana republic putting them in jail even if they are criminal offenses. it's something we don't do "hero." >> he's channelling the frustrations of millions of americans and hears from his rallies that there's a different set of >> he's threatening to use the power of the presidency to put her in jail. >> it wouldn't be up to him. but, george, people feel frustrated -- >> he's calling to are a special prosecutor. >> we'll have to see if he's elected president if that makes any sense but folks get upset we've got a gentleman an american who took pictures

time and and others seen violating the comfortable dex of a national security document they also face penalty and in this case fbi director jim comey did make clear she lied about how many servers she had -- >> no reasonable prosecutor would bring the case, he said. >> others have been penalized. obviously in abc's polling and other places hillary clinton has a very difficult time proving to the american people that she's honest and trustworthy and i don't think with her server and the way they treated e-mail imperiling everybody's national security helps >> that's all we have time for. kellyanne conway, thanks for coming in. >> thank you, kellyanne. jon karl will join us from washington. we're hearing from donald trump. how severe is this divide in the gop, jon, and where do we go from here? >> that was stunning. kellyanne conway just went asked directly by george whether or

should still be the speaker of the house next year wouldn't answer. i mean that is an extraordinary sign that we are truly at war. donald trump not just against hillary clinton but against some of the most prominent and respected members in his own party and republicans are now seeing a situation where base voters supporting trump are angry at them and also the moderate swing voters who are upset by this. a lose/lose situa deal with an unshackled trump, his words, unshackled trump? are there concerns there? >> i've been talking to senior people in the clinton campaign about this. they say for the next four weeks they are preparing for a scorched earth strategy coming from donald trump. they think that the next four weeks of this campaign will look like the first 30 minutes of that debate with donald trump throwing absolutely everything personal attacks bringing up

real challenge for them because it's harder to get a positive message for what hillary clinton stands for. >> 27 days to go. all right, jon, thank you. we move on and get the latest on that deadly plane crash in connecticut. one passenger killed when it went up in flames and now the fbi is investigating. abc's linzie janis is here. fbi involved because of some evidence this may not have been an accident. >> reporter: good morning, george. that's right. when that plane came barreling out of the sky, most assumed it was an accident. but federal investigators are w crashed it on purpose. this morning, the fbi investigating whether this plane crash -- >> looks like we've got a fully involved aircraft on fire on main street. >> reporter: -- was intentional. the pilot telling authorities the twin engine crash was not an accident. the plane taking off from an airport in hartford, connecticut, with a student pilot, and instructor reportedly on board. just before 4:00 p.m. tuesday,

poles. >> the fact that this wasn't even more catastrophic is nothing short of a miracle. >> reporter: then cartwheeling down main street narrowly missing a van carrying her mother and children before bursting into flames. >> three poles, when it hit the last one it just boom. >> reporter: a bystander posting this dramatic video tweeting the plane came inches from our office, went right by the window. the chief of police saying he asked the fbi a pratt & whitney factory, describing it as critical infrastructure. the company, a global manufacturer of jet engines for commercial, military and general aviation. that pilot instructor was rushed to the hospital, is reported by being treated for burns and his student pilot did not survive and that mother in the minivan so shaken she couldn't speak. authorities say it is a miracle

18 people in north carolina now dead. >> too many people have died. and we don't want any more to die. >> reporter: the u.s. death toll from hurricane matthew up to at least 36. hundreds of thousands still without power. tuesday afternoon, national guard troops racing to repair a crucial dam in more county, a growing hole the size of a fire truck threatening even more destruction and more lives. >> they're risking their life to get this thing done and to me those are superheroes. >> reporter: this as multiple rivers continue to swell to record levels. >> this street aligned with businesses is now part of the lumber river in record flood stage for days. michael. >> all right, thank you, phillip. ginger, you have more on the flooding. >> right, because he just said it. record flood stage for days and it will keep going for days so

that's not the only river we have to showcase here as far as who is being affected. flood warnings stretch from south carolina to southeastern virginia and you can see a couple of those rivers we wanted to highlight. the neuse river is crested already and staying up there and at major flood stage through sunday. so this is not going to be over for some time. a quick check of hurricane nicole, a category 2 hits bermuda tomorrow or a >> we appreciate that. now to a happy reunion, that 4-year-old girl missing for days, she's now back in her family's arms safe after being kidnapped and found more than 800 miles away. abc's steve osunsami has that story for us. >> oh, you're beautiful. >> reporter: cameras were there and rolling the moment authorities reunited 4-year-old rebecca lewis with her family in florida. >> thank you for bringing me home.

miles away at baptist memorial hospital in memphis. a young woman at the hospital saw the girl walking hand in hand with her alleged abductor and recognized her from amber alerts on facebook. >> my dad looked at me and i showed my phone and said she's wearing the same outfit and immediately they took that ride and we went straight to security. >> reporter: police surrounded the silver car in the parking lot and rescued the 4-year-old uninjured. >> i want to say thank you to you because without don't know when this would end. >> reporter: 31 west hogs is in police custody. the longtime family friend was spotted with the girl in several surveillance videos including this one from a nashville gas station around 2:00 a.m. monday morning. tennessee authorities are now under fire for waiting until later that day to issue an amber alert. >> we did receive a phone call

issue an amber alert. we asked is the individual she's with a danger? does he have any criminal history? >> reporter: they did issue a police alert to be on the lookout. there are so many of these cases where the victims are never found or their cases are ignored which makes this reunion all the more remarkable. hogs has a court appearance in tennessee this morning. robin. >> all right, steve, thank you very much. a happy ending there and a happy ending last night for the cubs. >> if you're a chicago fan you because it did not look good for them last night. they were down going into the ninth inning and then they came alive. breaking the curse or closer to breaking the curse that has been on them for 108 years and scored four runs in the ninth for an epic comeback to win 6-5 and eliminate the giants from the playoff and now advance to the championship series to play either the dodgers other nationals and they're one step

sweetman alleges carrey gave white three sexually transmitted diseases without warning her, lied to her about it and then dumped her out of concern for his own image. in a statement sweetman says, as a family, we want the world to know the truth about who jim carrey really is. carrey's attorney martin singer responded it is understandable a mother who has lost a daughter will look for someone to blame but in directing her grief and rage at jim carrey and joining this ridiculous lawyer's attempt to suicide mrs. sweetman is heading down the same dark path as cathriona's green-card husband mark burton. her estrange husband also filed a lawsuit against the actor accusing carrey of giving white sexually transmitted diseases while concealing his diagnosis and carrey responded saying i will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman i loved. both burton and sweetman's lawsuits claim carrey obtained prescriptions under the false

a contractual obligation and i got to tell you, she's trying really hard to get those tapes released. she said that she wants a three-judge panel to review whether or not these claimed legal restrictions are really there and are really enforceable. that is really, really great but it's a little more like legal theater to me. >> we heard there could be a fine or something if these are leaked but there is a go fund me page that said we'll p legal fees for anybody who likes these tapes. is that even feasible. >> it's feasible because there is that rumor. it's been reported there is a $5 million penalty if someone releases that tape but if you then interfere with trump's contract and you fund that go fund me, i think he could unleash his 400 plus attorneys on the people that fund -- you know, he's got this scorch the earth type of litigation strategy so you could actually be putting yourself at play here if you do that.

it'll be someone doing it anonymously. >> i would hope so otherwise there are real legal problems for people who get involved with this. >> i didn't know you could be sued on the other side. >> tosamsung moves to halt production of the galaxy note 7. the tech giant shares plugging and another smartphone caught on camera exploding. becky worley joins us now and, becky, this one simple question, how do they come back after this. >> when even the replacement foaps catch on fire then you completely cease production. the only direction to go is get the 2.5 million recalled phones back without another incident. news today samsung sending out return kits that include a static minimizing bag, thermal shielding box and rubber gloves like they're dealing with a hazmat scene.

says a device containing a lithium ion battery with a recall have to use these. the company's stock fell 8%. $20 billion, poof, gone. long-term, though, samsung is a diverse company and makes appliance, tech components, other smartphones. hopefully that insulates them in the short term, guys. >> but they have to win consumer trust back. at the same time they' i week possibly facing damages from apple which could also be a blow. >> yeah, but i will tell you that patent litigation is like a mosquito bite compared to the note debacle. i can imagine their internal pr team, yes, i got the patent wars case. bottom line, no real implications for samsung with this one. right now it's about brand damage. i'm telling you no product has ever experienced a pr beat-down of this magnitude and the other android phonemakers are licking

when you consider the financial benefits of hosting the bolympis you want the money infused into thety and i spoke to the mayor, the infrastructure is mainly in place, overhead would be relatively low in comparison to other cities and good thing financially, i just don't want to be tuck in traffic any longer. >> traffic is pretty bad in l.a. one of the worst cities and, becky, 2028, san francisco out there, your city, throw the name in there. >> we've held the super bowl, america's cup, we've got the rugby world cup super bowl can do it. we can do the olympics too. can we get some public transportation to go with that? >> i'd love to have the olympics come back here. >> oh, i would hate it. new york is already so crowded. can you imagine having a bunch of people here for the olympics? i don't want it. i'm from the bronx. i don't want it. no, no. >> george, you can be on the committee. sunny, you're off. thank you, lz, thank you. becky, thank you and sunny, thank you, of course, thank you for coming in.

with a deep wound that became infected by an aggressive flesh-eating bacteria. in order to save her life, doctors amputated aimee's left leg, right foot and both hands. this morning we are seeing the first photograph of aimee copeland. >> the nation watched as aimee battled back. miraculously just four months after the accident, aimee made her public debut on "katie" and showed incredible strides in her recovery. today, thanks t determination -- >> oh, yeah, oh, yeah. >> reporter: and new high-tech prosthesis made by randall alley, aimee is regaping her independence embracing her new normal and spreading her message of optimism despite any obstacle. >> goal. >> no matter what challenges in life you face, if you want something bad enough, you will

>> aimee certainly has done that. aimee copeland and randy alley join us now, the first time in our studios for both of them. please give them a warm welcome to be joining us. >> yes, yes, yes. great to have you. you both here. aimee, my goodness, you're making history. >> thank you. >> the first quadruple amputee to have this type of prosthepro. >> i've tried different ones over the years and last summer when randy and his in just three days, the first time i tried them on it was like totally different than anything i'd ever experienced. they just felt like a part of me, an extension of my natural arm. it was amazing. >> i bet it was. randy, tell us what is so innovative. >> traditional sockets don't control the bone so everything feels like it's slopping around and unstable. what we do is a patented way of compressing and releasing around

so that it feels like a part of you and becomes a part of you instead of something attached to you. >> that's what's so important. you want it to be a part of you and not -- >> absolutely. >> both of you, both of you are changing lives and i know that your intent is to help others but those that you help, randy, inspire you and help you in the end and your company. >> can never have a bad day. it's just an awesome thing to do and be ray part of. but we like to have a piece of that. >> you're being very, very, very humble. aimee, the way we saw at the end of the piece, speaking, you have two masters degrees now. one wasn't enough. you have two. you have two very special internships. what is it that you speak to people about? what is your message to them? >> i think compassion was a huge part of my healing. working with organizations like friends of disabled adults and children, seeing little kids who are in wheelchairs when you're helping others you're not

you're lacking. it makes you grateful and it makes you pass on that gratitude to others so my -- i strongly recommend anybody who is facing struggles go out and help other people and you'd be surprised at how much it actually helps you. >> you make it look easy and i know it hasn't -- i know it hasn't been for you so tell us what has been the most difficult part and what got you through those difficult types. >> you know, we all have those dark nights of the soul. those difficult times when i'm trying to do something and everything is going wrong.i family around actually my best friend corbin of ten years in in the studio audience today and has been a tremendous life saver throughout this entire experience, my family. my study, the whole community really just banded together and i think the support system is one of the most important things. all you need is love. >> that's true. and have you that in abundance and, randy, you've worked with other, bethany hamilton who we know very well what happened with her with the shark encounter. >> yeah.

>> well, it's a small field. and i've been doing it for a long time. but you get a reputation for focusing on certain things and the interface, the socket part is what we focus on and hope we're marching things forward a little bit. >> speaking of marching forward, you are paying it forward. tell us about this nonprofit nature center that you're trying to bring about. >> yeah, so, you know i love the outdoors and being outside and as soon as i became disabled i was like, okay, so where is and was disappointed to find there were none in my area so my goal after i become a licensed clinical social worker is to combine my counseling with full mind, body, spiritual growth and to focus on the outdoors, community gardening and helping people to just fully immerse themselves in nature. >> and i understand that you fully enjoy bagels. didn't you mention that? so your mom, your beautiful mom, you said you wanted bagels to go

back to the atl with you. maybe you'll share them with randy, as well. >> we'll see. >> we got wolfgang puck upstairs so. bless you and thank you both. thank you very, very much. we appreciate that. >> oh, hope you come upstairs with us. we have another full hour, oh, no, half hour left to g coming up, i know. coming up we have minnie driver here live and wolfgang puck is going to be cooking too. what a day.
