comes to light. >> accused of threatening a former beauty queen with a gun. what happened behind the scenes at his home? new details only on "gma." serena the superstar williams does it again. >> game. >> what a serving display. >> making history at the u.s. open winning more grand slam matches than any player, man or woman ever. now the greatest of all time has a new record in sight. and good morning, america. how about that, serena williams and how about that voice we just heard, welcome back, michael. >> thank you, george. thank you. >> come on now. hey, hey. >> be quiet. >> no, no, no. >> it is great to have you full time with us. it does feel like the first day of school around here. >> only thing i'm missing is my

spider-man lunch box. >> you did have that, didn't you? >> i did and the kiss one too. >> we'll meet your mini michael coming up. politics and labor day has passed and the presidential race, 6 3 da3 days before the f vote and both bearing down on the big battleground states. share planes sharing a tarmac in cleveland and exclusive interviews with david pure but let's start with cecilia vega who has all the latest from a basis labor day. >> good morning. no holiday for these candidates. traditionally the campaigns kick into high gear until after labor day but nothing about this is traditional. this is the final sprint. >> reporter: a traffic jam hitting this tarmac. hillary clinton and donald trump landing just steps from one another before hitting the trail.

>> welcome to our big plane. it's so exciting. >> reporter: 275 days without a press conference and broke in her new plane by answering reporters' questions and going after donald trump. >> he's temperamentally unfit to be president and commander in chief. but if you look at his behavior toward putin and russia, that is a serious indication of how unfit he is. >> reporter: but her inaugural ride on hill force one interrupted by a coughing fit. >> ki hacan i get some water. >> every time i think about trump, i get allergic. >> boy, we have 63 days to go. >> reporter: trump's campaign manager responding immediately

tweeting, must be allergic to media. finally spent a minute with them. trump also racing to the finish line in ohio. the republican nominee now saying he will do all three debates, the only reason he wouldn't -- >> hurricanes, natural disaster. no, i expect to do all three. >> reporter: you heard it. he says he'll do all three. hillary clinton brought out her allies in force spanning the map. even bernie sanders hit the trail for the very first time on his own. we now know next week first lady michelle obama will campaign for hillary clinton for the first time in this race, clinton. she is taking no chans. >> both were in ohio and both sat down with one person, "world news tonight" anchor david muir. hillary clinton and tim kaine fighting back about her stamina. >> 63 days but you're here longer than that.

all four saying yes sitting down with us. we first met up with hillary clinton and tim kaine moments after touching down on clinton's new plane dubbed hill force one. they have that new book but that new race and here's your first race. labor day is here. >> labor day is here. >> i hear you just landed in ohio and i understand you flew hill force one. >> we did. >> did you notice out the window the trump/pence plane. >> we did. >> is that a sign it's game on. >> i think it might be. >> 63 days to go until election day and you mentioned donald trump in this country, secretary clinton. and people know he wants to build a wall. tough on immigration, i'm curious, when a voter is asked what hillary clinton stands for with 63 days to go? what do you hope they'll say. >> i hope they'll say i stand for the kind of future that will help them and their families. we want to get the economy to work for everyone, not just those at the top. the best i can tell is donald

trump is for building a big wall which we now know after his unfortunate trip to mexico, the mexicans have said they're not paying for it. >> you talk about the trip to mexicoment donald trump said they did not discuss who would pay for that walsh the mexican president said they did discuss it and mexico would not pay for it. your campaign said, quote, it turns out trump didn't just choke, he got beat in the room and lied about it. >> yeah. >> is what you believe. >> that's what it sounded like because what happened is what we call a diplomatic incident, because he came out saying one thing and the mexican president corrected him almost immediately. so, it is clear that he went down with a mission, it's been the mission of his whole campaign from the very first day to demonize immigrants, to call mexicans rapists and krills, to do everything he could to stir up all kinds of bad feelings about hard-working people, and

he didn't raise it so he did choke. >> on those trips, those recent trips donald trump tweeted hillary clinton didn't go to louisiana, she didn't go to mexico, she doesn't have the drive or stamina to make america great again. he goes on to say does she look presidential, fellas? give me a break. >> can i just -- does she look presidential, fellas? that's an idiotic comment. i got added to this 11 weeks, 112 days from the electric. this great public servant has been on the field for 17 or 18 months, it's hard to keep up with her. the day she tweeted she didn't come to mexico, did she have the energy? >> we do press hillary clinton on the fbi revealing their investigation into her e-mails. what she said she didn't recall and an aide breaking her blackberries and we'll get into that later. >> how does she explain the polls tightening. >> she said she fully expected

these polls to tighten but a lot people have looked at these weeks and said donald trump is out there a lot more than she was and spent more time with donors. i asked has she been outcampaigned by him and she said no we'll get into that. >> we're looking forward to the debates. what does she expect from trump. >> she said trump said after every one of those republican debates i won. that is not lost on her. she takes that into this preparation and takes it seriously. you can tell she is already prepping. >> you had a busy day. you raced across the state and spoke with both of them. >> we didn't get a speeding ticket but it was close. we headed to the county fair where donald trump was, a huge crowd gathered and he pointed to those crowds but also pointed to the polls saying he is on the rise. what does he mean when he talks about hillary clinton's stamina, we asked and about what she said, did he choke? isn't it divide and conquer? 63 days to go. >> it is.

very rarely will we be together like maybe once every two weeks. we like it because we like each other but the fact is it's better when mike goes someplace a and i go someplace. >> you often talked about hillary clinton's stam that and said she didn't look presidential. >> i really do believe that if what do you mean by that? >> i don't think she has a presidential look and you need a presidential look. you have to get the job. i think if she went to mexico she would have had a total failure. we had a big success. >> when you talk about her not looking presidential, are you talking about aesthetics. >> i'm talking about general -- by the way, she says things about me that are horrible. the single greatest asset i have is my temperament but she came up with this madison avenue line let's talk about his temperament. it's the single greatest asset i have is my temperament. >> reporter: trump knows his opponent is here too. hillary clinton who is also here in ohio as you know told us a short time ago you choked, that the idea of mexico paying for

this wall has been central to your campaign. did you choke? >> so, let me just tell you about joking. i don't joke. she jokes. she's spoven for so many bad things that happened to our country including the signing by her husband of nafta which has drained our country of its jobs. i've been given a plus including by you people but i've been a pluses for the job i did in mexico and the fact that mexico will pay for the wall. it was discussed that it wouldn't be discussed but they know my stance and i know their stance. >> did the mexican president break his word in talking about it. >> we had ground rules and that's okay. see who winds in the end. we'll win 100% they'll pay for the wall. >> governor pence, you're making news in revealing you'll release tax returns. >> sure. pretty quick read. >> pretty quick read. >> i'm curious. do you think the american voter has the right to see the tax returns of donald trump before they vote on election day? >> you know, i'm very pleased to provide our tax returns. you're going to find out my family is a middle class family

and that they will be pretty clear evidence we haven't profited from our 16 years in and around public life. >> but, governor, i'm asking about donald trump and every presidential candidate -- >> look, i'm re-releasing my tax returns. donald trump will release his. i'll give mine to y'all this week and he'll provide his after a routine audit is done is there as far as mine are concerned the only one that cares is the press. it's no the a big deal. >> you don't think there are any voters. >> i think people don't care. >> i'm not sure about that. we've heard from a lot of voters saying they want to see his tax return and he is the only one in recent history not to release. >> we'll press him further and ask him about immigration and where he is going with undocumented immigrants and leave the door open for undocumented immigrants to stay had this country. you'll see how he answers that and the debate we asked about the debate too. anyone playing hillary, we asked. he said i'm not preparing in a traditional way. we'll think about it.

not even holding mock debates. >> everything has been untraditional. >> why change now. i think you have more to say about this and you will tonight, more of your interview on "world news tonight" with this guy, david muir. >> thanks, guys. back to school here. >> i know. it is. >> back to matthew dowd. >> i brought the pencil. >> our chief political analyst and martha raddatz will join us. let's talk about the new poll from cnn shows donald trump among likely voters pulling ahead two-point lead within the margin of error. hillary clinton still leading among registered voters. >> most significant piece of data we've sign in the entire general election and demonstrates among the people most excited, most engaged donald trump has a lead and that should concern the hillary clinton campaign. the other thing that i think should concern the clinton campaign coming out of the poll is he has blown through his cap. he used to be capped at 42 or 43 now up to 45. at his personal best. if hillary clinton thought she

could coast in the home stretch of this thing she better tighten up her track shoes and buy a bigger box of cough drops and be prepared for a very, very close race in looks like a close race right now. and most of the candidates now are spending most of their time in about 12 of those battleground states where she does still hold a lead. >> if you take a look at the panoply of battleground states she leads almost every single one but one thing to keep in mind they're lagging indicators of where this race is. as the race changes nationally then the battleground states change. i would expect in the next week many of those battleground states blue now will go to purple. >> there hasn't been recent polling and bring in martha raddatz. martha, congratulations, you'll moderate that debate on october 9th and spending time in those states talking to voters in the key state of pennsylvania. >> you know, we talked to voters who reflect what poll numbers say about unfavorability. and the people we talked to who are clinton supporters have serious trust issues with her.

i heard that again and again. some of it is because of old controversies but a lot of people are absorbing the message trump putting out there that she's not telling the truth. as for trump the voters who are still trying to decide, especially there in pennsylvania, do worry about temperament issues despite what he told david muir. >> martha, manth, thanks very much. from an ongoing political storm to two tropical systems on the satellite, hermine spinning off the coast of new england as another storm, hurricane newton makes landfall in cabo this morning and, of course, ginger is tracking it all. >> good morning, yes, cabo san lucas on attack looking impressive, 90 pl plus-mile-per-hour winds, cat 1 and maybes its way into the southwest. potential flash flooding but that's from nantucket where the wind is blowing and trees and power lines down. the track there. you know it made landfall in

are recommending that every child above the age of 6 months gets the injectable flu vaccine. >> a lot would do that because they inject it and it's not comfortable for children. >> or adults. >> what do you tell patients about the importance of flu vaccine, there are a lot of people who don't take them. >> 100%. i take this seriously. i have been diagnosed with influenza twice, both times i thought i was going to die. i took care of a pregnant teenager who did die of complications of influenza. about 80% of the kids who die of flu were not vaccinated. take this seriously. talk to your child's pediatrician. >> you know what, thank you for your advice. i hope everybody heeds and accepts it. to amy for today's other top stories starting with more problems at the airport. >> unfortunately, michael. good morning, everyone. another computer outage is affecting a major airline, this time it is british airways having trouble checking in passengers just weeks after similar glitches at delta and southwest. in this case about a third of british airways' flights were

showdown with the lapd at his mansion was a setup. >> because, you know, my character has been defaced and who i am as a person and integrity. >> reporter: seen here in this video clip provided exclusively to abc news maintaining his innocence after being arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. >> i'm glad all my real supporters know me and the truth and they'll see it. >> reporter: authorities have been trying to piece together what really happened at the $4 million mansion after receiving this call at 3:00 a.m. last tuesday morning in two females, unknown, crying and ask are to help. >> reporter: the former beauty queen in brown's heal along with a dozen other visitors and told abc news she was looking at a box of expensive diamond jewelry. >> that's when chris came in and said, i'm so sick of all of you people. took the gun out like this, put it in my face and said get the "f" out. >> reporter: the singer remained inside blasting out angry messages on social message.

>> when you get the warrant you can walk up right in here and see nothing. you idiots. >> reporter: but abc news has now learned chris brown's defense team led by famed attorney mark geragos believed the r & b singer was set up by the accuse irherself. his defense team sharing with abc news a text message purportedly sent by bay. lee to a friend just minutes before the 911 call was made. the text message reading, this freak, chris brown, is kicking me out of his house because i called his friend's jewelry fake. i'm going to set him up and call the cops and say that he tried to shoot me and that will teach him a lesson. were there any guns in the house at the time? >> there was a search that was done. they went in and said that they had a description of a piece of jewelry, that jewelry was not found in the house. they went in and she said that there was a gun. as far as i know the gun was not found in the house. >> reporter: also at the heart of the investigation the surveillance cameras on brown's

property. so there's no chris brown waving a gun. >> no baylee looking at a box of jewelry. >> nothing. >> reporter: geragos a constant figure beside brown over the past decade again by his client's side while brown posted a $250,000 bail. a nearly identical scene to that standoff is expected to air in the upcoming abc drama series "notorious" based on geragos' life as a high-profile lawyer. >> you do exactly what i say. >> reporter: in your show "notorious" the character that plays you arrives the to defuse a situation very much like what you experienced -- >> so, yes, there is a little bit life imitating art. as i was walking through it i was thinking the same thing. >> reporter: brown who has not been charged will be arraigned in two weeks. now, baylee curran's people say she stands by her claims and question the authenticity of that text message and told me if she had written a text so explicitly incriminating herself why would she have given her

phone to police investigators. he clearly have plenty of work left to do. guys. >> matt, thanks very much. let's talk to dan abrams about that. matt hits on the big question. if this is real, this text is real sure seems leak a smoking gun. >> if this text is real and no other context out there, this case is over. i mean, this is it. sure, maybe there's an explanation somehow. maybe there is another text. other witnesses but llance if those words were said by her at that time, i don't see how prosecutors move forward. >> you say it's over. they can't move forward against chris brown. about what her. >> it's possible. if they become convinced she filed a false police report she could face charges. that's what chris brown's team is now saying is that she's the one who should be facing charges here. not him. but i think it is fair to call this a smoking gun if it's authentic. >> i think a lot would say even

if he was set up chris brown could have handled it better. >> he behaved terribly. look, this may not have been a tan combrof, right? mark geragos is upset it was called a standoff because geragos' position was wait there, i'll be there eventually. i'll get there. when they get a warrant, et cetera, we'll let them in, no problem in brown did say that. >> so you can argue that the media coverage of this was a littleover stated in calling it a standoff but for chris brown to go on instagram and rail against the police, it wasn't the police who decided to go to his house. they got a call from this woman alleging that chris brown pointed a gun at her. that's not their pault. >> they have to respond. >> they have to respond. >> so, look, chris brown can have other beefs with the police but at that time that was not a smart move in your goal is not to get arrested and not to get prosecuted, but, again, if this text is real, i don't think there's going to be any prosecution. >> dan abrams, thanks very much. over to michael.

what's up on the big board. >> thank you. coming up on our big board, dale earnhardt jr. putting the brakes on racing. will he ever get behind the wheel again? a woman accused of body shaming a perfect stranger on snapchat. will she face jail time. our insiders are there looking good. robin will join me so stay right there. we'll be right back. our invigorating ocean spray single-serve juice drinks go anywhere. like on your commute. or at the office.

ahh! where'd he go? i'm in the break room. enjoy the bold taste of ocean spray any time or place. who know it wasn't a day at the beach...rough it. i'm in the break room. unless someone got buried. to the fullbacks... gearheads... and those with green thumbs. to the sticky... the stinky... even those who get a little icky. to all the beautiful mess makers, keep it up... with delta in2ition plus h2okinetic, you can. see what delta can do. the search for relief often leads here.s, introducing drug-free aleve direct therapy. a high intensity tens device that uses technology once only in doctors' offices. for deep penetrating relief at the source. new aleve direct therapy.

you should have been with us during the commercial break. it is time for our big board and team of insiders standing by live for more on the morning's top stories. sunny hostin here at the table. we'll talk to her in a minute. first let's start with the latest on dale earnhardt jr. the fan favorite step ago way from the wheel for the season saying he's suffering from concussion complications after that accident this summer. i the fourth documented concussion of his career. ricky craven is going to join us and talk about that.

good to see you here. i know you went through this, as well and had some concussions during your racing days. tell us the experience you went through and what junior might be going through. >> it's uncomfortable, it's awkward, a little clumsy and may be paralyzing because you do not prepare for becoming compromised or injured. just like you don't prepare for getting into a wreck. you're dominated by winning races. and if you look at this 41 car tumbling through the air that's not something you prepare for. you react to it. so dale earnhardt jr.'s circumstance is this, he spent most of his life pushing the limitses on how fast he can go in a car. what will that car give him and what will that racetrack allow him? what will his talent provide him and then when you get hurt, you have to surrender. you're depending on the people around you, the doctors, your team and that's not typical of an athlete. they want control. >> you talk about what the car will allow to you do.

really at this point what his body will allow him to do. he's not considering -- ricky, he said he's not thinking about retirement, he told his fans that but considering the circumstances, should he think about that? >> so we know this, he's having trouble with his vision. he's interesting trouble with balance and gotten out of a race car twice because of these concussions and i'm sure you can relate, michael, you don't always get to vote on this. number one, you got to become healthy again, rit? that's the first hurdle you have to clear. number two, even after becoming healthy, you're 42 years old. you're about to get married. you're exposed to other things in life that are a lot of fun. do you want to take the risk? >> he has so many fans, so many fans. >> he has so many fans but then you got to weigh it and life after work. >> how do you do that? playing in the nfl having injuries and that, what ricky was talking about, how do you -- >> i think one of the hardest
