>> i come today with a very heavy heart. last night i couldn't sleep at all because president trump, our president, has literally be trade the conscious of our country. the very moral fabric in which we've made progress when it comes to race relations in america. he has failed us and it's very unfortunate that our president would say things like he did in that press conference yesterday when he says, there's, you know, good people on the side of the nazis. they weren't all natzis. >> that's a clip from yesterday's fox and friends gianno caldwell emotional reaction to president trump blaming both sides. he says he can no longer defense the chant in chief. this morning gianno joins us now courtesy of skype with more to talk about that segment but first gianno good morning to you first of all. first of a,

reaction to this because the president just tweeted about these monuments. sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments and he put u and... >> let's talk about your reaction to that statement that he just tweeted out this mor morning. >> it's unfortunate that he's tripling down at this point. obviously we know what those statues are about. it was about the confederacy. about slavery the marginalization of black folks diss end end franchising communities of color. those statue are part of american history, true, they should be in museums not celebrated around city halls across the country. this is not what our country stands for and i'm -- i'm disappointed. i'm very very disappointed and saddened the president is tripling down here. >> right. let's talk about your emotional reaction to what what happened in charlottesville and what the president had to say after what happened in charlottesville. there was

a press conference and another press conference he placed some of the blame on the victims saying that they were good people on the side of the nats cease an and kk. if you had a chance to talk to him face to face, you're a republican strategist, if you had chance to talk to him face to face what would you tell him? >> actually, after it happened on saturday the statement went out on monday i reached out to the white house and i was very clear. i said, president trump needs to get in front of the cameras today. there's no time to wait. statement isn't good enough. he needs to get in front of the cameras and we need to have a national dialogue on race and very clear explicit terms like senator obama did in 2000 i was. obviously he went before the cameras. he made a statement and then he had the press conference the day later i believe that was. >> um-hmm. >> when i saw it and i saw it on the tail end, i just couldn't believe what i saw. i was shocked. i was

i was disgusted. i immediately put out tweet president trump doesn't understand race relations in america. i watched it again. then i found out that i was going to be on fox and friends the next day and it was something that i had to talk about because i couldn't even sleep on the issue. i was really emotionally drained and hurt by what the president said and i was reminded that my grandfather who grew up in he helen, arkansas where there was a hot bed of racism and clan activity. so literally, i'm viewing this from the lense of family. so this is really hurting me on deep and personal level here. >> next question from a stat gist stand point, should the president get in front of the camera again not only twitter but in front of the camera again and this time try to make some kind of apology about what he said the last time he was in front of the camera? >> the president isn't capable apology. at this point it really appears he's incapable of empathy. this president

in getting in front of a camera and saying i'm sorry about anything. and truthfully speaking, he made note of that yesterday. he doesn't apologize for the press conference he had and that's one of the reasons why i'm speaking out. i'm encouraging conservatives and republicans everywhere to also speak out, because if you continue to encourage and defend the president on issues like this, especially issues of race, we can fight about tax reform and health care and policy issues, that's -- those are important things and impact our daily lives, absolutely, but when it comes to issues of race, that's very very serious very personal thing that has the potential to be extremely dangerous because literally people white vest mist and others. we cannot defend the president's rhetoric especially when it comes to race relations in america. we need to get together and speak as one voice whether it be democrat or republican, and make it very clear that we

tolerate the kind of language this president is using, this backwards thinking. we can't reverse course from years and decades of progress that we've made in this country. we can't be tray the conscious of our country not any longer. >> gianno he just finish that tweet. i'll read that to you and get the reaction. after the second part. can't change history but you can learn from it. robert it lee, stone wall jackson who is next, washington, jefferson so foolish also there's... more tweets coming. >> so speak on it. >> yeah. disappointed, and ignorance is bliss. >> ignorance is bliss. as far as the republican standpoint from a republican standpoint, this is the president who has attacked members of his own party, his latest lindsay graham today. at what point does the republican party, i mean there's been, you know, they came out against what he said, but at what point does

party say, all right, knock it off. enough is enough. we got business to take care of. we are the republican party. this is not what we stand for. knock it off. >> you know, during the election i wrote a piece, um, donald trump is divorced him from the republican party and started the party of trump, and i think that's what we're pretty much going back to much this was after he attacked paul ryan the way that he did earlier in the campaign. i think president trump is allowed and created an environment that has become very difficult for anything to get done legislatively or pretty much anything. even when there's some good things he does, it's beneficial to the economy, bringing jobs in, those kinds of things, when those things happen, we talk about it for all of an hour. before he says something ridiculous on twitter. this is where we are in the country in our country, and we cannot be complicit and the defense of president trump when we know that he's going to step on the

and he's going to stay something else that's going to cause a national outrage. we really should be talking about some of the things that are going on good in this country as republicans. we should be saying, hey, we're the party in control. this is what we did dot dot dot if you will but we can't talk about that because president trump has become the message. we can get away from that. >> all right. gianno we appreciate your time. we're out of time right now for this segment. we appreciate you taking time with us spending time with us this morning. >> thank you. >> republican strategist gianno caldwell. thank you very much. >> 14 minutes after the president started his tweet he finally finish it. a three part tweet took 14 minutes and the last part wisdom which he said who is next, washington, jeff son so foolish he finished up, the beauty that is being taken out of our cities, towns and parks will be greatly missed and never able to be comparablely replaced. that's the full tweet from the president this morning. >> um, tripling down in the way -- >> why it took 14 minutes to write that, i don't know much that's like m

show where i'm doing three other things at the same time and not putting my full attention into my twitter. >> right. >> just doesn't sound like unification to me. not bringing the country together. i just don't -- i don't understand. >> please, let's move on. let's move on. >> we'll change gears a lot coming up in the meantime speaking of moving on we'll ref things up as we do on good day you never what you'll get and today we're getting a sneak peek at a big motto cross race this weekend. >> all right. erin, what are you working on this morning. >> surviving d.c. sniper loses his appeal. the jackpot hits -- we're back with a check on what else is making headlines next.

all that controversy -- >> she will he pep tee dot talking. >> specifically kim kardashian said in the article, we're not perfect but you see things in the media like kendall and pepsi where it hasn't been portrayed right and she said i see her at home crying but in the media she looks another way because she's not addressing it. the team and everyone is telling her not to and i'm just like, this is wrong. you need to speak up. >> so she kim kardashian big sister who's dealt with her own issues sort of defending herself is telling her young sister when everybody else is -- >> speak up. >> -- saying don't speak out. >> speak up. >> right. >> and she was like i don't ever want to show that footage of me crying. she was trying not to make excuses for being dramatic. but that was what she was going through at the time. so i actually agree with kim kardashian here. i think that kendall jenner should have spoken out about it. >> kev, here's what i'm saying is that sometimes you just can't win. >> right. >> sometimes you can't win so when your entire team is saying, just don't, you know,

pepsi apologized. and i don't think anybody thinks that she's herself tone deaf but just the production. so any way. >> you've convinced me now i agree with you. >> it was the right move. katie perry postponed her witness tour due to unavoidable production delays. >> okay. >> and this does not affect the d.c. tour date she will still be here september 25th at the capitol one recent in a. but obviously in an official statement she want to do release to her fans let them know why some of the dates were postponed and now rescheduled, she says "due to unavoidable production delays major elements of my tour stage design could not be available for me to rehearse on until this week. i'll be spenting the next few weeks taking time to properly prepare the show to be an experience. i'm proud to share with you i'm sorry for any inconvenience this causes but hope everyone who sees the show will agree it was worth the wait. my first show on witness tour will be in montreal on septembe. she will be at the verizon center on monday, september 25th. her ope

here. >> luke here's my question for. people don't realize how much stamina it takes to get through the raises. this is an all day thing. if you come down to buds creek on saturday you'll see that because you get real started -- started real early in the morning for the practices and stare throughout the day. how much wear and tear on your body to hit those jumps and everything all day long. >> it's a long day. every saturday for suss a brutal day, and he is special here at buds creek for some reason the humidity always seems to be kind of, you know, one of the more brutal races on you, you know, physically. so, you know, saturday is going to be -- it looks like it will be hot and humid and, um, you know, just got to rely on your physical ability to get it done. >> no doubt about it. physical ability comes in because you're literally like hunched over the bike the entire time when you're flying through the jumps through the pretty much everything that they can throw at you. like riding out doors, super cross, what is it that you like the best? >> you know kind of depends r really. ce

mode, you start gelling with that a little bit, and then, you know, after months and months on that, you get a little taste of outdoors and then you kind of enjoy that again. >> right. >> so, um, it's good. you kind of get half a year on each and keeps everything fresh. >> a couple different classes this is 250. you ride the 450. so those are the big boys when. what's the biggest difference between the bikes? >> biggest difference is bike the obviously the power. we have tooter 250cc' and on these bikes. big power thing. the bikes a little heavier so, you know, little bit more technical to ride the 450 other than that. power range is different. it's a bigger bike and it's fun to run. >> i have to calotte out here for a second because i always wonder how you're able to get through -- how many people in the races when you have a main how many people. >> 40 rider glass 40 riders all trying to get through tiny little tracks. not everybody keeps their line and i've seen you two clips when you get upset when people don't let get through. >> yes. >> how hard is it to be

the track with that people people sliding all over the place and work your way to the front? >> it's difficult. you have 40 guys outdoors going into one turn that's half the size of the pack. so for the most part it's pretty crazy when you're hitting big jumps, next to 40 people old first lap. when it starts to fan out it gets easier once the people start separating for the most part it's pretty nerve racking at some point when you're racing and getting so close to people and hitting each other. it's fun. that's what we live for adrenaline. >> so cool you have that power on the handlebars right there. real cool i know you guys practice during the week. you built a home track. >> yup. >> really awesome to be able to have the ability to that land and just ride non-stop. i wish you guys both the best of luck this weeknd for folks who want to come out get in for 40 bucks where tickets start on full day fun at buds creek maryland an hour or so south of dc. get in. if you want to show up 8:00 o'clock in the morning you can go and spend all day down there. i wish you the best. you were rid
