donald trump, los dos presidentes bushs asÍ que va aomo va a recuperar el bosh que ha perdido donald trump * nacionalmente hoy estuve viendo que quiero obtener el voto los hispanos comiendo taco eso es absurdo y no sÉ si seguirÁ asÍ pero parece que no quiere aprender pero es una fuerza que verdadera el hay que ver cÓmo se va a desenvolver en la elecciÓn. >> uno de los republicanos que en el pasado ha mostrado la persona mÁs fanatica de donald trump estÁ a mi izquierda, ana navarro, pero la realidad es que dentro de todos los republicanos habÍa esta esperanza que quizÁs no fuera donald trump, es el hombre! >> quÉ estÁ pasando que paul ryan y otros no estÉn uniendose a este movimiento? >> primero no me lo digas tan fuerte que puede que me desmaye en medio del programa, es un momento difÍcil para muchos republicanos como yo, mÁs de 70% casi 80% los hispanos desaprueban a donald trump, casi 70% de las mujeres sda desaprueban a donald trump, como soy hispana y mujer, creo que sda pruebo de Él 150% la verdad que donald trump ha dicho * barbar

how do the numbers look for a trump and clinton matchup? >> donaldder way. hillary clinton in the lead by a healthy margin. but opportunities in our polling for donald trump.

>> i am going to beat donald trump. >> donald trump is playing you for a chump. >> will you vote for donald trump if he's the nominee? >> i doubt it. >> you voted for? >> bernie sanders. >> we cannot let barack obama's legacy fall into donald trump's hands. >> he's a disaster. >> we're going to fight for every last vote. >> i love that. >> the convention will be a contested contest. >> i just have two more words to say. obama out. >>> this is "the last word" on campaign 2016. >> we begin tonight with a political quiz. which presidential candidate said the following words about whom? so, there are two things you have to guess here. who is the person speaking and who are they speaking about? here are some of the words the candidate has used to describe this person. political moron, stupid, dummy. dopey. all right, by now many of you are guessing that this is donald trump's description of someone. actually, all of you are guessing that and of course you're completely right. it's donald trump talking now. here's one more clue about who donald trump is talking about. dumbest and most overr

a decisive week in the republican primary season. donald trump is the last man standing in what was once a field of 16 candidates. his final rivals fell, ted cruz and john kasich called it quits after donald trump dominated the indiana primary. >> bernie sanders scored an upset in the hoosier state. he could possibly soldier on to the convention in philadelphia. >> we talked to strategists about new political realities. joining us now is mary matalin, influential republican strategist, and dan senor. dan, i will start with you, tell us what is going through the speaker's mind at this moment when donald trump is trying to unify the party and the speaker is not on board? >> he believes is it incumbent upon donald trump to unify the party, not his job, or mitch mcconnell's job, it is the nominee's job. he was struck by these calls for party unity. like everyone should just fall in line. he is not against getting behind a unifying figure but if there is some apprehension about unity now, that is donald trump's job. >> asked whether he would support d

donald trump. they have all done it. >> paul ryan is being careful and cautious and shrewd and helping donald trump by giving donald trump a reason, namely party unity to modify some of the position that got donald trump the attention o f the american people. the republicans have decided that even though this effort may have no close, they're going to say he's got a beautiful garment on g they're going to go with him all the way. i think they decided, it is a win-win for them. >> it is as wild card question, howard, they reached out a solution for donald trump. is donald trump willing to reach back and take their hand as pointed out before the interview where he says -- i guess we'll go back to the question of is it now the ball in his court and he's going to take the help? >> what's going to happen here is they're going to find a way to square the circle on this issue. donald trump will say, i am from preserving social security and medicare to essentially democratic position and i am going to whack the budget elsewhere and that'll make paul ryan at least a little bit happy. interestingly, they agreed with pro-life issues

a fool. crystal fired back describing donald trump as a roaring jackass. >> donald trump is warning if a prominent candidate as bill crystal is claiming it could cost the republicans the white house. listen to what trump had to say in the news conference today about the possibility of a challenger from the right. >> i don't think anybody with a reputation would do it because they would look like fools. but what you're going to do is you lose the election for the republicans and therefore you lose the supreme court. >> as anti-trump conservatives desperately search for an alternative candidate some prominent republicans have taken a pass. one of them is joining me right now. the congressman from illinois. thanks very much for joining us. as you know congressman sources close to you say you contemplated running literally to save the union because you find the idea of both donald trump and hillary clinton scarey but you decided against doing so. you don't think the infrastructure exists to get on the ballot. bill crystal is promising the organization and the money, would you reconsider and run as a t

you make donald trump supporters mad and anti-donald trump supporters mad. you may as well pick a side. she hasn't done that. look, a lot of candidates are weighing their options. it's hard to predict what's going to happen. donald trump, we know, one thing has negative numbers. he has high negative numbers among women, african-americans, among hispanics, and among young people. unless he can start to turn those around or unless something dramatic happens on the other side, it's going to be difficult to see how he's going to win this election. >> we actually have a bit of news here in last few minutes on this subject of the republican party and whether it will rally around donald trump. house speaker paul ryan, in an interview a few minutes ago on cnn, saying that he cannot support donald trump yet. so susan, that's interesting, leaving open the possibility it is yet to come but he's not there yet. >> that is really interesting. and i haven't seen that interview. for paul ryan, the highest ranking republican in american politics, at the moment, to not embrace the man who is extrem

donald trump turns to the tawdry clinton tales of the 1990s and takes heat from the media. >> donald trump bringing back a long ago debunked conspiracy theory on hillary clinton but does regurgitating a lie matter? >> donald trump the last couple of days brought up rape with sean hannity and sexual abuse. 20 years after the fact. >> vince foster. >> vince foster. that is despicable. >> discredited allegations of the suicide of hillary clinton friend and one time white house aide vince foster. how should the press cover the press talking about that and the sexual misconduct of bill clinton? >> headlines of hillary clinton being hit hard for violating rules with the private e-mail server. is the press finally taking her own. >> and a stunning example of misleading editing to make pro gun people look like morons. few there are no background checks for gun purchasers how do you present felons or terrorists from purchasing a gun? >> with cour ice defending this. all the mystery man behind the hulk hogan and that is a classic case of revenge that could bankrupt gawker. >> the media is used to donald trump attac

job. >> asked whether he would support donald trump, he is a voter and a citizen, he is not there yet, what is required on donald trump's part? dan: he is serious questions about donald trump's temperament to be commander-in-chief and judgment. >> what does he have to do? dan: he is not providing a checklist but saying over the next couple of months, earn my support. trump has behaved in the last few months, rhetorically, temperamentally, gives people a lot of pause about whether or not he is worthy of having their support. >> we think this is a big deal, is it? mary: with all due respect, you are overreacting. with your analysis that this is some white night effort. >> we said people might speculate about that. forget that, the notion of the speaker of the house withholding support of the presumptive nominee of his party, is that abigail -- is that a big deal? mary: indiana was two days ago, it is premature, it time errors are emotional and this one in particular is emotional as mainstream republicans and regular republicans and conservative republicans are very

charles: you haven't been a donald trump fan. having some evangelical on the ticket would help way your thought and opinions? >> i'm agnostic when it come to donald trump. i think what's important is he's got to have a good vp pick i think will ahour social conservatives. that's not just evangelicals. it's conservative catholics. we are not sure what he's going to do because he doesn't have a track record in government. how he will vet his judicial nominees, one way would be to select ted and say i'll let him vet my judicial nominees. and what he does on the platform in cleveland will be an indicator of whether he want to build that platform including conservatives. charles: on the democratic side do you think hillary clinton and elizabeth warren would be a good ticket or would it be a risky move. >> i think it would be good for women and trump has been turning off people like crazy. charles: she will go into battle with hip at 2:00 in the morning. >> she is pushing bernie sanders father left. it might push moderates over to trump

i don't think she know what's to do with donald trump. calling him arobably -- >> what about the people who can't swallow the prospect of donald trump as president, this talk of a third-party candidate? do you think that ends now with donald trump, or do you think it keeps going? >> i think it keeps going, but it doesn't matter. we could hold a meeting of the true never-trump supporters in a phone booth, i bet you, within two months. the people who are going to be the real never-trump people are people who are, you know, deeply committed about -- concerned about conservative philosophy, ideology, esoteric things like the constitution. unfortunately, most americans are not there. they're worried about people taking their jobs. they're worried about china ripping us off in trade imbalances. i mean that is where i think most conservatives are and most americans. so maybe it's a bad thing, but i don't know -- i think that the most sort of principled and philosophically focused people are -- just happen to have like talk radio shows and -- >> but there's an

a teleprompter. all these things. the things we have to understand, donald trump cannot win a choice election. donald trump can win a movement election, and the way you win a movement election is to throw the playbook out, change the dynamics. we're trying to give advice to a guy who just kicked the butts of 17 candidates in a republican nomination. >> i agree with john on that. i think this election is not going to be so much about persuasion as it is about mobilization. you're going to have to mobilize and get out your voters. donald trump has done a really good job of that so far, getting out his voters. >> to mobilize the voters, it's important to mobilize your party. >> hillary clinton will -- >> and two nominees staying out of the convention, that makes a mess, and the press is going to play on that, the division for just forever. >> i will tell you that hillary clinton will mobilize republican voters, and you know that donald trump will mobilize -- >> absolutely. >> -- will mobilize democratic voters. the problem, the republicans i talked to today shais the quest where does this end? how

a romance. i like him. he likes me. he's backed me 100%. >> donald trump is a friend of mine. i like and respect donald. y of the other republican candidates used this opportunity to take a stick and smack donald trump. i ain't going to do it. >> genevieve, what -- i mean, you laugh. it's how they felt or said they felt months ago. what do you think about that? >> well, i mean, you never see flip flopping like you do in a presidential campaign and people, i mean, what they said a month ago is completely different than saying today. brooke, i think what we have seen over the last day or two, it is really unfortunate. i mean, this is not what either of these candidates should be talking about. and, you know, donald trump is not successful because he's running around with lying ted or little marco or any of the other names to different candidates. it is because of the issues he's raised and brought up, agreeing with him or not. he talked about issues people cared about and frankly, ted cruz, i mean, i'm disappointed to see this because he's got a lot of great ideas about how to get the country back on track

donald trump? this is not -- it's a strange thing to do. donald trump has been a factor in politics nationally and locally for decade. we know who donald trump is. when it comes to paul ryan, you have got a man who rolled over for barack obama on a trillion dollar budget, and he's going to be lecturing donald trump about what conservatism is? we can do it immediately it has been years that we have known this man has been on the scene. 45 minute? we have had months of a primary season. has paul ryan been at disneyland. for donald trump to take this meeting and be generous about it is more than he had to do. at this point paul ryan may be gaming it to stretch the type out as others are trying to figure out how to stop mr. trump. that has to be considered. it would be outrageous. we are 180 days until the general election. charles: you are thinking he may have if he their was motives. >> he says i can't make up my mind in 45 minute. are you kidding us? what we have been through, you know who donald trump is. he has known hip for a period of tim

one, donald trump is a businessman. do you see a kindred spirit in donald trump? racter there that you recognize and feel a kinship with? steve: at some level, yes. because he has an entrepreneur background. i stay out of the politics side of things. i focus on trying to bring people together on policy, particularly on innovation. frankly, i wish this election had been more focused on entrepreneurship and innovation and the economic outlook. we counted all the debates in the last year, 600 or 700 questions. less than half a dozen questions were on these core issues of entrepreneurship and innovation. that is the point of the book. john: i'm not trying to drag you to the realm of politics, we don't ago. steve: sure you are. john: these are two human beings running for president. hillary clinton and donald trump, as an entrepreneur who wants to greater policy climate that is favorable to entrepreneurship, you look at the two of them and what they have said so far in this campaign -- how do you evaluate them relatively speaking -- not saying who you endorse, but how d

saying they'll never vote for donald trump, i bet 90% of them vote for donald trump. >> that fox news poll had donald trump leading with white women. donald trump is running against a white woman. >> absolutely. you know what? the average of the last six presidents who have run, 39% of whites have voted. we typically in the democratic party do have a problem with whites. but you know what, 84% of people of color are supporting hillary clinton. it is almost mathematically impossible for donald trump to be able to achieve enough support among whites, 53% right now, mitt romney got 57% of white votes. >> he's doing better with women, believe it or not, with white women. >> underperforming where john mccain did. >> not with white women. >> i don't know about that. >> no, romney had a slight deficit to donald trump with white women. women, romney performs better. >> white men hate donald trump, that's what you're telling me. >> he's crushing it with white men, am i right, ned? >> he is. i think the think that is interesting is, listen, i do think hillary has a little bit of a likability gap. i think the support for donald trump is a lot more enthusiastic, there is more

charles: senator ted cruz did encounter a group of passionate donald trump supporters. >> donald trump is a new york liberall who will take away your second amendment rights. this man is lying to you. i appreciate you being out hear speaking. if i were donald trump i wouldn't have come over and talked to you? i would have told the folks over there, go over and punch those guys in the face. that's what donald does to protesters. >> you are lying like you always do. charles: jenny, i know you are a ted cruz supporter. social media, everyone who likes ted cruz thought he got better end of it. but it was an awkward situation. do you think it will help ted cruz? >> i think it's important for ted cruz to confront these accusations. there is a lot of work that has to be done in indiana and he's trying to get his mess and out. i was with ted cruz in front of the white house when he did the same thing to code ping. he's very respectful to people who don't agree with him. he said i want to be their president whether they agree or not. we are not always going to agree with the president. charles:

closer to catching hillary clinton and donald trump isn't much closing to you nighting the public party. >> i think with somebody like donald trump you would see a race to the bottom across our country. >> less than 48 hours to go before donald trump meets with house and gop leadership. >> he is not ready to endorse the presumptive nomty. >> it will take more than a week, just to prepare and unify this party. >> we have a nominee. it looks like he may be competitive. >> can he win over the establishment? i think he will beat them. >> secretary clinton is campaigning in kentucky today. >> there are real differences what i believe and the presumptive republican nominee. >> trump is an internet -- >> you know, you don't have to vote anymore. save your vote for the general election. forget this one. the primary is gone. >> yes. it is an aspiring message, it reminds me of patrick hen's immortal battle cry, give me liberty or forget this one. i don't give a crap. >> it's another big night for the presumptive nominee, donald trump, the latest from the nbc decision desk. it shows both bernie sanders and donald trump have projected win. bernie sanders pi

a trump guy. you were a cruz guy, my bad. donald trump, trying to make nice with paul ryan. x news. >> he is a very good man. he wants what is good for the party. >> did donald trump blinchlg? >> the number two man, kevin mccarthy, has not only endorsed trump, he is a member of his delegation from california. >> good move. you will see a spoke to ebel radio. >> what we want to do is so we can be full strength in the fall. we will be at half stretch in the fall. thae don't go well for us. >> what do you make of paul ryan's approach to this meeting? >> given the this is a long way tou for unity. >> he always gets his way, this back and forth with paul ryan has been about who gets the upper hand. he came back and said, i am not sure i am ready to accept his platform. and listen to this. >> i want you to do is save your vote for the general election. forget this one. t the irm. >> it is now time for everybody to get on board? >> yes. >> the margins of protests became smaller and smaller. with trump, the offense. you see the percentages it is about angry voters who want to see cha

a target. now it's not donald trump or ted cruz. it's donald trump. >> i wanted to talk about a positive first but i giveith and now takeith away. look at the math. look at the delegates. bernie sanders needs to win 101% of the remaining pledged delegates in order to clinch the nomination. that's because so many super delegates have lined up for hillary clinton. if he can't flip the super delegates, he can't win. it is now his only path to the nomination. >> again, i don't think this is about a path to the nomination. i think she's only certainly the nominee of the democratic party, but he does expose waeeaknesses that hillary clinton has. indiana was a state barack obama won. >> good for the party at this point? >> no. probably not good for party or from the point of view of hillary clinton and a lot of her supporters but he has a constituency, a reason to run and a lot of passion behind him and a message that still resonates and more momentum to be gained here before the primary calendar is done. by the way, he won democrats last

everything is on a standstill. donald trumps going to bring us to a point and everything is going to start happening now with him being president. down --n should back back donald trump being the republican party. host: are you worried -- caller: donald trump signed he would back the nominee no matter what. paul ryan needs to back donald trump. think there is room? paul ryan said it is a big party, there is room within the party for those who disagree. do you think the tent is big enough to bring on board those endorsed donald trump? no, we are dividing the party again. so many people have voted for donald trump. them as theck republican party. i used to be democrat. i saw too many democrats went the wrong way. they make promises they could not keep. like that. i became republican. i hope donald trump becomes president for my kid's future. host: up next, bill calling in .rom ohio you are undecided. using the party can unify and is that important in helping you make a decision? i hope they do not unified. the thing that makes do

he is in a very comfortable place with donald trump. take a listen. >> reporter: a lot of reports that there is concern about donald trump flip-flopping on issues, being unpredictable. just yesterday he talked about enforcing this muslim ban. paul ryan has not supported that idea. was that discussed, did they come to an agreement on it? >> i'm not going to get into the specifics of what was discussed, only to say that it was -- it only can be described as very positive and i think a first step toward the speaker and donald trump working together. >> reporter: is donald trump going to get in line with the republican platform as it stands now or are you going to have a new one come the convention? >> he's in line with the platform. there's never 100% unanimity in anything. most of us don't agree with our own spouses 100% of the time. we believe that. >> reporter: and the question will be, erika, do all republicans up for reelection believe that. i can tell you, though, a significant endorsement that trump got today that is not being widely

trump? >> they are blockheaded. you have a guy and, donald trump who made a big name for himself and the republican party. the biggest name you had in decades and you fight against it? you are a fool. >> when we return, we talk to the candidate himself about what is next. it is it a long road to get where he is. and to some the hard part is only beginning. >>> it was a bear knuckle brawl, and when the dust cleared, donald trump was the last republican standing. but now, with the nomination assured, new challenges have arisen, perhaps more difficult than anything he has faced so far. first and foremost, unifying the party behind him. ♪ as donald trump started looking more and more like the republican nominee -- ♪ -- the attacks from his own party continued. >> if this becomes the david duke/donald trump party, there are a lot of us who are out. >> donald trump is a phony, a fraud. his promises are as worthless as a degree from trump university. >> reporter: trump had prove he to be the disrupter. >> everyone's out. i'm the only one left. that'

the tax, that will be a surprise to donald trump. the tariff relongs to the congress, want the president. and then, there is this line in article one, which paul ryan, will no doubt underline, when he gives a cope to little donald trump. the house of representatives shall choose their officers, and have the sole power of impeachment. the president has no such power of of the speaker of the house. the president cannot empeach the speaker, the speaker has the power to lead the impeachment. if you read the constitution, if you know who had all the power, in that meeting today, you would know it by reading the constitution. a meeting between the speak of the house, and a candidate. if you have ever worked on legislation in the white house or congress, you know who has more power over legislative outcomes, you know all of those things, you have heard presidents promise and then not do. remember all of those things? that is because all almost all of them were up to congress. congress decided not to do them. it seemed like it was in presiden

a well renowned neurosurgeon. i think donald trumphat narrative forward in places like with evangelicals and non-college-educated voters that is surprising. say you're part of a system that works against us. donald trump did a smart thing. he locked onto voters in a way that they felt where he was being attacked they were being , attacked. they really feel like they are part of a larger cause. mark: do you plan to support him? kellyanne: i do support him. i hope others will as well. i'm part of the never hillary camp. i'm really disappointed in some of my republican colleagues and friends who have said they will support hillary. i understand why others may not be willing yet to get on board with donald trump, but but i am a party girl. i have been a party girl when we have had other nominees that were tough to swallow. mark: what are the building blocks of trump's comeback with female voters. kellyanne: several things. first of all, so much has been written about the gender gap. issues toses on the animate women, in the bloomberg poll

many are feeling abandoned by donald trump. a twitter war between donald trump and a prominent evangelical today. charles: donald trump getting some pushback from some evangelicals -- he said the gop was not the party conservatives. i want to bring back trump spokesperson katrina pierson. donald trump saying russell moore is a terrible representative evangelicals saying a nasty guy with no heart. but there is a coalition of 0 christian leaders asking people to reject donald trump because of racial and religious demagoguery. >> the he are gel cals i know make an astounding case on why evangelicals should support trump. when looking across the world. we are not look for a sunday school teacher. we are look for a commander. someone who is not hostile to christians in this country, and there is a clear option for that. charles: donald trump won the overwhelming majority of evangelicals in the southern state and other state as well. he was able to capture a large lion's share of that vote. and there are prominent leaders til resisting

we have a key race alert. donald trump has reached the number of delegates needed to clinch the republican presidential nomination. we are waiting for a donald trump news conference scheduled to begin later this hour. we will bring that to you live. cnn's delegate estimate puts donald trump at 12 sell sdts. we will bring you reaction we are getting from the democratic presidential front runner hillary clinton who is campaigning this hour in los angeles. let's bring in our panel to discuss what is going on. donald trump clinching from our estimate the republican presidential nomination. we have our cnn chief political correspondent dana bash with us. our senior political reporter and cnn political director and john king our chief national correspondent and the anchor of inside politics. david, walk us through from our vantage point official, he has the nomination. he has the majority of delegates he needs to win that nomination. >> 1,237 was the magic number we have been shooting for which republican was going to get there?

a high stakes meeting in the capit capital. we expect donald trump his meeting with paul ryan and the two men have transitioned to a larger meeting with house leaders. they're huddling behind closed doors in washington. that's mr. trump arriving earlier this morning. the goal here to put an end to the republican in-fighting an unite around a trump candidacy. trump's pow wow with ryan kicked off a busy day after trump rapped up with the gop leaders in the house, he will meet with the party's senate leaders. the big question, as i said, when trump leaves washington today, will the party be united. we're following all of this as only cnn can with our team of political experts, our chief political correspondent da that ba -- dana bash, manu raju, gloria borger is here with me and senior white house correspondent jim acosta is at a place where trump will be later meeting with his top aides. i want to start with you, dana. what do you suppose is going on right now? >> reporter: i can tell you what was going on -- everything okay, carol? >> yeah, yeah. you

and donald trump is not a racist by any stretch, but donald trump has used racism in this campaign topel his political message. how would he get half of that 0 30% -- >> let's not confuse a disapproval rating with -- there's no way that he'll get -- >> no, but if he can move that number by even 5%, you can win an election with that. >> 5% on the african-american vote? >> yes. >> if he outperformed mitt romney by 5%. and he can do it. >> you're the only person who is realistic and not drinking tonight. bernie sanders talking about donald trump. i'll let you get in. listen. >> donald trump is not going to become president for a number of reasons. and the major reason is that the american people understand that we cannot have a president who has insulted is latinos and mexicans. who has insulted muslims. who every day is insulting women in one way or another. who has insulted african-americans in a very profound way. people sometimes forget that before mr. trump was running for president, he was one. leaders of the so-called birther moveme movement. and that movement was a very ugly effo

donald trump up 15, 16 points in california. if donald trump keeps winning, what is it? you covered politics a long time. trump keeps winning, why is california going to switch from donald trump being double digits ahead to suddenly ted cruz? if the republican establishment, if the anti trump forces make huge invest thes saying you are it, california, if cruz would win, california sure but even if that happens, you can see trump getting to 1215, 1220. >> you can listen to donald trump and ted cruz. they are getting ready to address supporters. live coverage coming up right after this. ♪ every auto insurance policy has a number. but not every insurance company understands the life behind it. those who have served our nation. have earned the very best service in return. ♪ usaa. we know what it means to serve. get an auto insurance quote and see why 92% of our members plan to stay for life. the call just came in. she's about to arrive. and with her, a flood of potential patients. a deluge of digital records. x-rays, mris. all on account...of penelope. but with the help of at&t, and a network that scales up

looking at donald trump, i have to say as a republican, regardless of what you think about donald trumprefreshing as a republican to see somebody see a republican on the attack, not defending, not making excuses but an ears back attack. i think it has been interesting to see that he made it clear that everything is on the table. everything will be on the table. there will be no holds barred and this will be problematic for hillary as she pivots towards the general because she is not the greatest candidate. she is not bill clinton. she is applauding candidates. -- >> she herself will tell you, i'm not the politician that my husband is. >> exactly and i think that the fact that donald trump will attack from every different angle. it will get to her and throw her off. never defend, always attack. >> at what point does hillary go. they have a ton of money to go negative. when does this happen. >> i think it will be the most negative, nasty decisive campaign in history which is saying a lot. in the street fight this will be, i give huge advantage to hill raech. there is not a single thing th

they'll be part of a second meeting donald trump will be taking part in. at will immediately follow his sit-down with paul ryan and a little later this morning, trump will be heading over to a different part of washington. another meeting with top senate republicans. a lot going on in washington as we speak. a lot still to come this morning. while we keep an eye on that, we'll be joined in new york by joel, a senior adviser to hillary clinton's presidential campaign. i just got to ask you. you're watching this. this is likely to be your opponent in the fall. what's your reaction to what you're seeing today? >> what's you're seeing here is a culmination of dissatisfaction with donald trump's divisiveness, his hateful rhetoric, pitting americans against each other. that's why people in the republican party are so divided. this is unprecedented what we're seeing. i think there are people up and down the republican party not just elected officials but people who have been loyal supporters who are completely uncomfortable with having someone as risky as donald t

donald trump is a loose cannon, indeed. donald trump when the unions were organizing at the hotels in las vegas, donald trump fought that tooth and nail. donald trump doesn't stand for increasing the minimum wage. donald trump needs to talk to the people that i meet day in and day out. the woman i met in detroit who slept in her car the night before -- she slept in her car with her three children because they didn't make ends meet. that's what hillary clinton is all about, making sure people can earn a liflible wage. she has been consistent in showing she can break down barriers not only by raising minimum wage. >> you are a strong sporter of hillary clinton had. i know you are, the cnn orc poll we did this week question who had would better handling the economy. donald trump 50%. hillary clinton 45%. that's disturbing from your perspective? >> well, once the american people understand the trump train wreck, the trump train wreck on minimum wage where you are telling a working mom that $7.25 an hour is not a bad thing for am

[applause] >> the 69-year-old billionaire real estate mogul never held office and now, he was going for all of the marbles. beyond the announcement, one section of his speech got all of the attention. >> when mexico sends their attention, they are not sending their best. they are bringing drug, crime and they are rapist and some i assume are good people. >> people announced his campaign dead on a arrival. >> how should republicans handle donald trump? >> ugh nor him. it is not what the republican party needs. >> trump banged the immigration drum. >> i will build a great, great wall and i will have mexico pay for that wall. >> the line was fodder for countless punch lines. >> how do

for donald trump a high 5%, but it had been at 65%. but hi are you does have the lead of -- but hillary has the lead with hispanics at 2% versus donald trump's 23%. here to hash it out, mark, maybe not so shocking to you. you can call it a statistical tie. but it's obvious donald trump has serious momentum, this is magnificent news for his camp. >> lot of good news for republicans. trump has a five-week window from when he won the nomination after the indianapolis primary unless june 7 when hillary clinton probably become the nominee for her party. independent in this poll show favorable ratings for hillary of 23%. but they show favorable for trump of 40% which disclose to obama's favorable rating of 42%. he had a big gap you mentioned with men and a manageable gap with women. trump can overcome that number in this five-week window. charles: the bigger broader move we have seen underscores donald trump's issue, also with hispanics. there are a couple swing state where hispanics loom large. if he's to flip new york, and some of these oth

donald trump. mitch mcconnell has already endorsed donald trump. although it was a bit of a soft, muted endorsement, he is backing the presumptive gop nominee unlike paul ryan. and there are other top senate republican leaders in there right now who occasionally gets mentioned in vp talk. so this is something that we will see unfold over the next 45 minutes. donald trump will come out and come to the microphones and talk to us which i doubt. he will probably get back and held off. but i will tell you from talking to people about this ryan endorsement today and what were the prospects of a ryan endorsement today. i talked to a top official who said they had no expectations at all of an endorsement for paul ryan for donald trump. they knew this was sort of the beginning of this process, the opening conversation. and they know inside the trump campaign that this was a hard fought primary battle. it was political combat. it was take no prisoners through all of this. they did not expect paul ryan to come out today and say to give an endorsement. if you go by what paul ry

donald trump. donald trump does not have the same problem on a senate side as with the house. they are pretty pleased about how the meeting went with paul ryan. i just talked to a trump aid who said we do not and they feel like paul ryan is not the type of leader who is just going to jump on board on day one but in the words of this one aid that makes paul ryan a good speaker. wolf, when you are hearing all of the right things being said around something as contentious potentially as this it has to lead you to conclude that they are going to get there eventually. what speaker ryan had to say had to have been very promising to the ears of donald trump and the trump campaign. this is a speaker who wants to unify the party. donald trump even though he spent a good portion of primary process breaking the republican party into several different pieces i think they understand inside the trump campaign they have to start putting the pieces together. this capitol hill primary was a crucial part of it. at this point they are feeling very good inside the trump campaign about how this day

hillary clinton in the delegate count, and donald trump isn't much closer to uniting the republican party. >> i think with somebody like donald trump you would see a race to the bottom across our country. >> less than 48 hours to go before donald trump meets with house and senate gop leadership. >> a very, very bitter divisive primary. >> he is not ready to endorse the presumptive nominee. >> it's going to take more than a week to prepare and unite this party. >> he may very well be very competitive. >> i think he already beat them. >> there are real differences. between what i believe and what the presumptive republican nominee believes. >> i think donald trump has views about islam. >> the trump is internet trump. >> save your vote for the general election. forget this one. the primary's gone. >> yes. it's an inspiring message. it reminds me of patrick henry's immortal battle cry, give me liberty or don't. forget this one, i don't give a crap. >>> it's another big night for the presumptive nominee of the republican party, donald trump, the latest from the nbc news decision desk shows both bernie sanders and donald trump have projected wins tonig

this is typical donald trump a donald trump likes to talk to reporters. he believes he can be a zen and spokesman -- he believes he can be his own spokesman. donald trump likes to create the narrative around him as much as possible and not to let other people do. some of more calls on these detailed questions like finance than most politicians would. he also has a flair for the dramatic. hung up at the washington post, it's because he wanted to jot about his finances in his business. he did not want to talk so much about john miller. host: you will be in new york tomorrow to sit down the donald trump? guest: i will be. we have cap timed with him on monday at john tyler. what i'm really curious about is the general election. this is someone has been the primary for months, how is he going to win over the country. guest is robert costa who has also made many appearances on on this network including a q&a interview. to the independent line from georgia. caller: earlier you said you were not running for president, but if he was, i wanted you to know that i wou

donald trump. the problem with that, of course, is he's not even a plausible alternative to donald trump. d that he has any support, true support, outside of his home state. he's not demonstrated he would be a viable general election candidate. he more than anyone has sort of failed to see the writing on the wall. look, i don't fault him. it's hard to give up a presidential campaign. i can only imagine. but when donald trump said that we started out with 17 and now we're down to one, he might know that kasich is in the race, but effectively he's not. this thing is really over. we're heading to cleveland, and it's full steam ahead on donald trump. >> it's interesting that trump barely even attacked or insulted kasich last night. this morning east already up and on twitter, saying what a great evening we had. he's talking about how bernie beat clinton, how the democratic system is rig and crooked, but he's focusing already on the democratic race. >> good segue to our next segment. can bernie sanders build off his big win in indiana? must be a not a big win. his win in indiana. can he build o

trump. it all happened during a provide day stump in indiana earlier prompting a response for donald trump, jr. who wrote that was an impressive melt-down, desperate but impressive reminded me of my teen coming off a sugar high. we're covering the trump and cruz campaigns. before we do we want to give you more of that response from ted cruz earlier today so you have the full context here. his reaction to donald trump's accusations that rafael cruz, ted cruz's father was somehow linked to jfk assassin lee harvey oswald. >> this is not the first time. donald trump has used david's "national enquirer" to go after my family and it was also the "national enquirer" that went after my wife, heidi, that just spread lies, blatant lies. i guess donald was dismayed because a couple weeks ago the enquirer wrote this article about jfk and donald was dismayed the folks in the media wasn't repeating this latest idiocy so he figured he'd have to do it himself, go on national television and accuse my father of that. my father has been my hero. he was imprisoned and tortured in cuba. when he got to america he

so, if you're a trump supporter and sees a poll with donald trump three points higher than hillary clinton, what you're seeing is a tie in that poll. and if you're a clinton supporter who see as hillary clinton three points higher than donald trump in a poll what you're actually seeing is a statistical tie and when the campaigns see a tie in the polls, that's when they sharpen their attacks against each other. >> my camfan paign is not going let donald trump try to normalize himself in this period. i do not want americans -- and good thinking republicans as well as independents, to start to believe that this is a normal candidacy. it it isn't. >> here's what hillary clinton said to a union audience today in detroit. >> he could bankrupt america like he's bankrupted companies. i mean ask yourself. how can anybody lose money running a casino? really? when donald trump talks about deporting 11 million immigrants, he's talking about ripping apart families like darla's. he's talking about sending a deportation force to round up moms, dads, grandparents, even children. we need a president who wi

pass responding and with donald trump, you have not seen aoud push on say this "new york times" story with women and donald trump's dealings with them. what you are hearing is a series of criticisms on policy in particular and this idea donald trump is dangerous or risky particularly for the country's national security. hillary clinton was making that argument today on stage here in bowling green, kentucky, talked about fighting isis and how his muslim ban would create more terrorists in the middle east and ultimately cause a problem for american national security. she also talked about jobs, a key issue in kentucky and important in this election generally. take a listen how she talked about donald trump and his plan to create jobs. >> what is your plan to create jobs? his answer is, i'm going to create them, they're going to be great, i know how to do it but i'm not telling you what it is i'm going to do. americans take their vote for president seriously. they're going to be looking at that tv screen and saying, he still doesn't have anythin

a suggestion. does this make you reconsider? >> no. one thing we know about donald trumper rick perry early in the primary process gave a powerful speech in which he talked about donald trump being a cancer on the republican party, a cancer on the deserve movement. it's not just his policy positions. it's hezbollis general approach people. whether it's his racist attacks, whether it's him mocking people with physical disabilities. if you look to policy issues he's danced around on just about every issue. i think people and policies are just pieces on a chess board for us. if it's useful for him to use a piece, he uses it. at this particular moment that's the case with the muslim ban. i have no confidence that he will not revert back, because there's no principle or conviction guiding his policies. huge swaths of the republican establishment -- that they could once call someone a cancer, and not only on board. >> maybe he realized he was wrong. >> did he say that? >> i didn't ask him. >> you're saying donald trump thought the muslim ban was wrong? >> no. >> okay. well, i -

fox news poll out tonight, a rough one for hillary clinton with her behiend donald trump inrnie sanders ahead of donald trump in that poll, polling better than hillary clinton. >> it reminds me, bill clinton in 1992 was running third in national polls behind george h.w. bush and ross pro. so the polls aren't really that material right now. hillary clinton has this nomination won, it's just a question of letting bernie sanders have his people go all the way through the primaries, then the democrats are going to have to close rank. a friend reminded me of a bumper sticker that edwin edwards was running for governor of louisiana against david duke, the kkk wizard. and the bumper sticker said "vote for the crook, it's important." so if you're a bernie sanders supporter and let's say you think hillary clinton is terrible, you may even think like donald trump, that she's a cook, it's still extraordinarily important for your country. that you set aside whatever differences you have with hillary clinton and get down to the business of preventing this man from taking office because h
