surge is 56%. and then there are the flip counties, and president obama won it four years earlier, and he has an approval eightirating 44%. developing this morning, the senate is putting off a key procedural vote on health care. senate majority leader, mcconnell, made that announce the last night. the reason, john mccain will not be in washington this week after having surgery to remove a blood clot on friday. mccain's absence raised doubts about whether republicans would be able to get the votes needed to move forward on the bill. make sure you watch this week's edition of "meet the press," and moderator, chuck todd will talk about the latest in the russian investigation and the health care senate

welcome back, everyone. from a decade, his stories was hidden in history. a world war ii veteran shot down

prisoner of war. >> but the documents that proved that were thought to be lost and his daughter made it her mission to get her father his purple heart and got a lot of help. and chris lawrence shares his story. >> his voice cracks at the sight of it. >> all i can say is -- the love of this country. >> a medal he earned more than 70 years ago now on his chest. >> the greatest thing in my life was my country and my wife. >> second lieutenant is just shy of 95. but in world war ii he was the youngest man in his bomber squadron. >> on one fateful

24th, 1944, his bomber was struck by enemy fighters. he still completed his mission like every good american did but the plane did not survive and john and his fellow airmen had to bail out. >> his mission that day, bomb german weapons factories, but john's bomber was hit and it was damaged and his face and hands were wounded. >> john lived through the crash and was captured by the nazis and hauled away to a prison camp and months went by and they were forced to consolidate the pow camps. >> in january of '45, he was forced to march 345 miles with his fellow prisoners of what john said was the coldest winter in 50 years in the history of europe. >> for decades, john wouldn't tell his story. >> i don't think that you want to talk about

was so many other veterans in the same position in the same condition as you were, men and women. >> and john's family thought his file burned in a massive fire at a military records building. it was not until his daughter called the national archives two years ago that she discovered some had survived. john's only regret about being awarded the purple heart, that his wife gloria, did not live to see it. >> she was by my side at all times, and i accept this honor for my wife and in her memory and for the crew of my b-17, the me miscarriage, thank you. >> that was chris lawrence reporting. today john lives in college park, maryland, and his wife works at

recipient that helped her to work through the process to make sure her dad was recognized for his bravery. >> even though late, worth it. >> yes. we are getting new numbers that shows president trump's approval rating in the counties that fueled his victory. 50% approve of the president's job performance while 46% disapprove. this comes in the senate dealing with another setback when it comes to vet health care bills. >> and all of this as we are joined by moderator of "meet the press," chuck todd. put perspective on these numbers that just rolled out. >> this is what they are. these are the places that got donald trump elected. okay? these are the counties, where we had flip counties, and obamacare carried them in 2012, and they flipped to support trump in

if you were talking about all voters, these are the voters that leaned towards voting for president trump and he's only sitting there. this is what this does. it's very tepid support he has even in the areas he did the best, and without having stronger support that's why he doesn't have the same political pull he needs to have the health care bill pulled through. i think what it shows you is even with the president's base, the winning margin here, he doesn't have the support levels he needs to get an agenda through. >> when we talk about health care and the week ahead, it looks like another setback, senator john mccain and his recovery from his surgery, and what does this extra time do to the situation? >> well, this is not a pause that refreshes. i can tell you that. this is a pause that could be the death nail for the republicans' hope

bill through. one senator caused them to delay this thing. that tells you everything they need. it's that fragile, this coalition they tried to put together. you don't have a president out there selling it. you will hear john cornyn, number two in the senate, and he didn't seem overly optimistic that somehow all of this was still going to move forward. he was as optimistic as he felt comfortable being, but it didn't seem -- i didn't detect confidence this bill is on track to getting done. >> we have run out of time, but russia, russia, russia. you have the virginia senator, and president trump's personal lawyer coming up and the exclusive interview with john cornyn in just a few minutes. >> good show. don't miss it. russian, health care, a lot of stuff. >> thank you. you can see "meet the press" coming up at

and from chuck, we switch it over to lauryn ricketts. >> much easier things to talk about. we have sunshine and low humidity. heat and humidity come back as we get into the workweek, and other than that, not looking too bad for this sunday. go out and have yourself a little fun day out there because it's just going to be that beautiful. you don't get this weather in july especially with the low humidity. we have another great day as i said, and heat and humidity return next week, and then again on friday, 80 degrees in washington right now, and 77 in gaithersburg. you can see pretty much 70s and 80s as we start that climb toward that 90-degree mark, and we will reach it this afternoon, but it will be a great pool day, and maybe treat the kids to ice cream because it's also national ice cream day. a few storms possible monday and tuesday and down right hot and humid on wednesday and thursday. nothing showing up on the radar right now so you are not going to have to keep checking

because tomorrow we will be dry, and then we have a chance for showers and thunderstorms tuesday. seasonable for this time of year, and average temperature 89 so we are around that. monday morning, a-okay. and then as we get into the after afternoon, you can see a few showers and thunderstorms popping up as we go through the afternoon and evening, and then dry back out, and we look fine on tuesday, besides a few more chances of storms on tuesday afternoon. here's your chance for tomorrow. mainly again in the afternoon, you will wake up and it's going to be a muggy monday morning. definitely going to feel it after this comfortable weekend, and maybe bringing the umbrella with you for the afternoon. and then it's just down right impressive all week long as we have that heat and humidity. by wednesday and thursday we are in the mid to upper 90s and we stay in the mid-90s on friday, and then
