his life. much more than he bargained for. "early today" starts right now. >> thank you for waking up with us today. i'm betty nguyen. hillary clinton and elizabeth warren already looking like a united ticket. clinton was attacking donald trump. >> donald trump cheered on britain's current crisis, which has sucked billions of dollars out of your retirement accounts because he said hey, it might bring more rich people to his new golf course. what kind of a man roots for people to lose their jobs, to lose their homes, to lose their life savings? i'll tell you what kind of a man. a small insecure money grubber who fights for no one but himself. >> as far clinton, well, she seemed to enjoy warren's attack. >> i do just love to see how s
4:02 am
gets under donald trump's thin skin. >> she exposes him for what he is, temperamentally unfit and totally unqualified to be president of the united states. >> the trump campaign yesterday tempered statement that called warren a sellout and said quote, her campaigning for clinton's fans in stark contrast to the liberal ideas she once practiced. another example of a typical political calculation by d.c. insiders, but it was after the statement that trump stepped up the rhetoric going after warren with an exclusive phone call. he told nbc quote, i hope she's selected as the vice presidential running mate. i will speak openly about her if she is. she is one of the least productive senate torrs in the united states senate. we call her pocahontas for a reason adding she used the fact that she was native american to advance her career.
4:03 am
she made up her heritage which i think is racist. i think she's a racist, actually because what she did was very racist. when asked by nbc if his comments on warren might undermine his latest campaign makeover trump said quote, i don't care. i do me. i do what i do. i've listened to this for a long time at the beginning of the primaries. he should do this, i should do that, i won in a landslide. the latest poll shows a majority of republicans still say they prefer someone else as their presidential nominee versus 45% who say they're satisfied with trump. and during a republican national committee sponsored phone call yesterday. scott brown, who lost his re-election to warren continued the same attacks trump used. >> we all know she's not native american. she's not 1/32nd. she has no native american background except for what her family told
