steve handlesman, news 4. "meet the press" have a closer look at three questions coming out of today's meeting. chris lawrence continues our coverage, chris. >> sources pretty wired into the matter tells nbc news donald trump knew what he had to do to smooth things over and came into the meeting without his usual swagger. but that brings us to our first question. will ryan endorse him. the short answer, not today. although the speaker was open to the fact and en do you remember rang encouraged by what he heard. will ryan stay on as the gop clear man in july. too early to tell. if he doesn't endorse trump soon, he'll likely be replaced. even ryan admits the presumptive nominee is free to pick someone else. question three. is ryan making a play beyond november. there are a lot of theories why he hasn't been as
6:03 pm
colleagues, and that's one of them. if republicans lose in november, ryan will be picking up the pieces of what is already a fractured coalition. if you play that out, he could be well positioned for a presidential run of his own in 2020. either way, ryan's current stance buys time for other colleagues who are uneasy about trump, as they try to figure out how to handle what "the new york times" calls the political equivalent of a live grenade. >> chris, thank you. joining us now anchor lester holt, good evening, lester. >> good to back back in d.c. >> you've been covering all the ups and down we've never seen a presidential campaign like this one. how is this one different than others you've covered? >> i say chris just told us that you've got the presumptive nominee, come to washington and sit down with the speaker of the house to get his blessing, and still doesn't come away with it, that defines we're at in this campaign. you

wouldn't have. >> the man said at one point, didn't he, i can stand in the middle of times square and shoot somebody, that's still my people. >> he said it, i didn't. >> and now, we look back at a lot of things that he said before he was the presidential candidate. being seen in a totally new light. >> in a new light, but i think right now, despite all of the things he said, he really would like some party unity. we have in the report coming here on nightly news tonight, we have insight about the meeting today with ryan and other party leaders, suggesting he was a bit conciliatory, and he came to listen. so maybe a different trump behind closed doors today. knowing that he needs to get some of this behind him in the party on board. >> we'll see you in a few minutes on nightly news. >> we invite you to stay tuned, following after this broadcast. thanks, lester. now to a developing story involving metro and more
