lewandowski, the prosecutors have not preceded. think that for republicans worried about donald trump at the top of the ticket, incidents of this kind that raise unusual and unprecedented drama and melodrama, it has reinforced -- they were predisposed not to want donald trump as their nominee, but it has created a miasma, as part of the broader picture that makes people in the republican party that are queasy more queasy. that these are the kinds of things that are likely to arise if he is the nominee. and people want to stay away from this mess. mark: one of those things that people liked and attracted people to donald trump in the town hall was his family. no drama. no drama obama. you will never hear anyone say no drama trump. that less drama. if you has less drama, republicans will be reassured. john: next, we turned into the navy yard in my home borough of brooklyn, where hillary clinton and bernie sanders will face off tonight. we will preview that, after these words from our sponsors. ♪ ♪ mark: there are excitable types that

so mark corey lewandowski, does that announcement put trump's lewandowski firmly behind him? >> the first thing i want to say is people in the press everyone is innocent until proven guilty. the minute the charges were brought, everyone assumed he would be charged, tried, convict convicted, and people have to remember, innocent until proven guilty. in this case, it caused a swirl of controversy at a time when trump was going through a rough patch. i don't think at this point that even though there will be some fall out from the way the charges were dropped, which we'll discuss, i don't think it will have any impact of trump's chances of being elected. >> i agree with your first point. look, we on this program, made the point that innocent until proven guilty on the day it happened. unprecedented and we haven't seen anything like it, have a charge raised like this against a campaign manager, presidential candidate. i think at that moment in the wisconsin primary where things were going south for donald trump, first starting with the way he was treating heidi cruz and then foll

saying that donald trump and corey lewandowski initially said there was no contact between lewandowski and michelle fields, there in fact was. the office did in fact acknowledge that. but 0 to give you a perspective of what it's like at a donald trump event like this, a private event, where it's just reporters and supporters in a room like that, it is often the case that reporters go up to the candidate themselves with secret service surrounding them, so it certainly did not seem at time like an incident that would merit some sort -- that the secret service would essentially have been worried about. just a few minutes after that the candidate walked into a room with reporters, many whom standing next to the candidate asking him questions. steve? >> katy tur in new york city again donald trump expected to be speaking not long from now. meanwhile, 60 miles away, there are stop trump protests also expected on long island. in the suburbs of new york city. this, has trump is scheduled to speak at another event. another republican party fund-raiser out there about an hour from now. msnbc's c

one of the defenses available to corey lewandowski.ever touched her and all that when youqá(ez the game you can sayfá look, i didn't know it was her that i touched. i was trying to protect mr. trump. that is a legal defense available in a situation like this. we don't know whether that's what went through the prosecutor's mind. >> this is a case of prosecutorial discretion. news that came out tonight prosecutors specifically asked michelle if she would be willing to take apology from corey lewandowski and this was about a week ago. this is what she asked for all along. she didn't want to press charges but the trump campaign demanded she file a police report. she did. the police then issued charges against lewandowski. and now they are using prosecutorial discretion because michelle was asked if an apology would be sufficient and she said yes. it doesn't discount from the fact megyn that the history of this case still stands. corey lewandowski denied ever touching her. he publicly lied about it. video evidence showed that he nc#-ñ only

let's listen. >> corey lewandowski has not had a trial and they are calling for his head. why they tried and convicted him. second, east women has now shot herself in the foot. it could be a hard sell for each of the women now covering the election to say she is first. >> i don't know about that. >> they are commentators. >> i don't think this is an issue like an ideological issue but an issue we agree he should not have grabbed her. afternoon the fact that, and, then, to not apologize but to engage in character assassination...it is fair to say what she said was not quite accurate but something bad did happen and they should have apologized. >> as a commentator you sign a petition and say someone should be fired is that stepping out of the role of analyst who may or may not like trump and --. law is a line. are you saying what is happening or what ought to be happening? are you an analyst of evens or advocate for a position and it is blurred constantly. >> i would not do that ever continue i agreed. >> it would be better if they had a press organization sending something

michelle fields claims lewandowski assaulted her. she tweeted they told me they would inform me of the decision tomorrow. if reports are true, guess they decided to leak to reporters first. ugly. here is sara murray. >> reporter: they were going to battle with the rnc and they got one big piece of good news. the campaign manager corey lewandowski will not be prosecuted with battery with reporter michelle fields. the prosecutor will not move forward with charges in the incident. this is when fields said she was grabbed by corey lewandowski and pulled back and he left bruises. this removes another distraction for the trump campaign. they are at this pivot point trying to bring in new seasoned political operatives. they are trying to do more d.c. outreach which is expected to start today. none of this extends to a friendlier tone when dealing with the rnc. last night in pittsburgh, trump still said the process is rigged. >> in colorado, they are picketing and going wild because the bosses and establishment and people that shouldn't have

lewandowski has been hard to find on the campaign trail. normally he and the communications manager/director come to the press scrums or to press pens during rallies, we have not seen them there in the past few weeks especially since these charges initially came down. so it'll be interesting to find out if they do return to their regular interactions with the media. i can tell you internally this has had an effect on the campaign even though donald trump stood by very publicly with his campaign manager internally there's a lot of push back among donald trump loyalists, long time loyalists, people close to him saying he needed a campaign manager that was a little bit more experienced. little bit more wise in the ways of how these things work. and one with better relations when it comes to some of the folks in washington. that's why they see hires like paul manafort and rick wily who used to run governor scott walker's campaign when he was still in this race. kate? >> and katy, i know you are outside after gala where trump is expected to be l

"donald cook" pulled into port in lithuania for what was supposed to be a goodwill visit to a nato ally but turned into a press conference about its run-in with russian jets. commander charles hampton said he had seen them coming fr a >> we tracked them for a length of time. i had a track on both aircraft 100 nautical miles away. >> reporter: they kept coming, very fast, very low and very close. they were flying what appeared to be a mock attack, although they were not carrying any weapons under their wings. the "cook" was operating in the balanced budget baltic sea in international waters 75 miles off the russian enclave of kaliningrad. the

much more in my guest with trump campaign manager, corey lewandowski. a sweep for hillary could put hillary clinton get her within 90% of the 2383 delegates needed for the democratic nomination and all but close out any path to the nomination for senator bernie sanders. reporters are stationed up and down the states today. we begin with sara murray, trump headquarters in new york city. the trump campaign is confident tonight but a feeling they have something to prove here. >> reporter: jake, the trump campaign is poised for a big night. they know that. they feel like they are going to get good momentum coming out of states. they can clean up in all five. they are hoping momentum will carry them forward to some contests like indiana, where it's tougher for trump and they are hoping that winning big tonight and by continuing to end going forward they will be able to note this case donald trump is inevitable, there's no point in continuing to fight against him. they are trying to prove that they do have a ground game, they know how to do the work. pennsylv

corey lewandowski is mentioned, but is this a nod of confidence in corey lewandowski, or is this a nodoing to take it to the convention. >> we need to get bigger and better and more people who understand the process. donald trump clearly had a problem with delegate math. he didn't know how it worked. it's almost as if he was going to build a building, he bought a plot of land and didn't check the zoning. he just didn't know. he just didn't know the technical side of it. and he needs, you know, he needs folks. i don't look at it as a bad thing. it's a smart move. you see shakeups all the time. this isn't that significant. >> when we talk about the attrition, getting to the number of 1,237, can he really be stopped if he gets to that number? and arrives neconvention, is there a plan b for republicans who don't want him, or is it his on the first ballot? >> if he gets to 1,237, he gets it. yet is what if he gets to 1,236. >> gimme. >> it's not a gimme. >> trump would say i want a gimme. gimme one. >> it's kind of not. there are a lot of people whose unbound delegates will vote differently

lewandowski was standing, his vantage point would have been such that he could see that. so in his mind, it's reasonable to believe that he had just witnessed, observed, a touching or her trying to grab on to mr. trump in some respect. and he then reaches in and he pulls her away. from an area in which she was not supposed to be in to begin with. >> the trump campaign released a statement saying the matter is concluded with the candidate saying he is proud of lewandowski. lewandowski says he regrets the distraction but used the occasion to contrast trump's handling of it to others. >> first, let my say how much i'm thankful for trump and his loyalty in this difficult time. many other candidates, all of the other candidates in the race asked for me to be fired and said i should have my chance or my day in court and what we saw today was that they looked at the evidence and decided there's no way they could prosecute this case around move forward. so first and foremost, i want to thank mr. trump. >>> new york is donald trump's kind of town. "the new york post" endorses him

lewandowski has been the sole person at trump's side day by day.of rick wiley, former scott walker advisor but also paul manafort, the veteran gop consultant and others to get from a small operation to something with a national footprint, especially when it comes to state conventions. >> does it, is it too little too late at this point or how much did we read into the fact that they're reorganizing a bit? >> it may be too late. we've seen the trump campaign struggle to get delegates but what you see with the meeting on capitol hill bringing together house members is trying to bolster their relationships, looking ahead to possibly getting the nomination and recognizing their weaknesses in that respect. >> your paper has an interesting read this morning. "the washington post" about how a nomination fight could hurt republicans down ballot, running for senate or house. it talks about mitch mcconnell and your colleague is right that he had a sort of don't be scary agenda telling republicans to keep voters in the fold and not be scary and now the republ

and lewandowski declined to comment on that.t's a real change from something lewandowski might have said a couple months ago, whereas the campaign might have lashed out at the rnc, lashed out at the gop in general. now they're saying, we're not going to get into that. we're going to put our heads down and try to get the number of delegates we need. of course, that's different from donald trump himself, who has been complaining over and over again on the campaign trail that this is a rigged system, that this is a system that is set up for an outsider to lose. that the establishment wants an insider to win, so they can uphold their interests, uphold their values, instead of the interests of the american people so far they are winning very much with that argument when it comes into the northeast. indiana might be a little bit more difficult for them, but again, their polling -- the polls they're looking at seems to show that they have a very strong chance of taking that state as well. brian? >> katy tur down at trump tower. and if

they made changes there, whether they are next to lewandowski or on top of lewandowski, it depends onou talk to. he's not bringing if guys who are mandated to change the system. these are deep-rooted system back-room dealers. what does that mean for the image of the team? >> this is exactly what he needed. donald trump prides himself on hiring the right people and putting the right people in place so he can get things done and win and that's how he presents himself. that's what he is saying, somebody like paul or riley, they worked at the rnc so knows the inner workings about that and that has clearly been a problem for donald trump. this is a step in the right direction for the donald trump campaign. they did not have eyes or ears in washington. >> let's talk about whether or not delegates are being intimidated. there are all sorts of delegates saying they are getting frightening e-mails and such. let me read to you an e-mail. this is the seventh district chairman, this is what he says he received. this e-mail. hi, tom, you know traditional burial is polluting the planet. tom, good l

corey lewandowski, you probably know the name. a little controversy around corey lewandowski.e's been the campaign manager. he's been the face in a lot of ways of the trump campaign from the beginning. having his troubles with that incident with the reporter recently. now in terms of potentially being outs organized. some of these delegate battles in north dakota, in colorado. maybe donald trump losing a bit of confidence in the strategic vision of corey lewandowski. this has been the brain trust for the trump campaign. you see the new people coming in. we talked about manafort. a veteran operative on the republican side. we talk a lot about the last time there was an open convention, contested convention on the republican side. 1976. 40 years ago. gerald ford being challenged by ronald reagan. paul manafort was involved in that convention 40 years ago. the last contested republican convention. now he's running the convention operation for trump. and also rick wiley. scott walker, the wisconsin governor who was in this race this presidential race last year, dropped out early,

let's first stalk about this lewandowski report. what are you hearing, jacob?rter: this would be a big deal, partly because of how fiercely trump defended lewandowski, said that he's always loyal to his people. he came out very strong in support of corey lewandowski, even going after the reporter. this report from politico now says that partly because of what happened with that reporter that his role in the campaign will be shrinking and that the newly named convention manager will now be taking a larger role, not only in the convention, of course, but also in the primaries that are to come. now, this is according to several sources within the trump campaign, but this is not something that nbc news has confirmed. so, according to politico, corey lewandowski's role will be shrinking and paul manaford and others will be taking a larger role going forward. we'll see what happens. >> yeah. jacob, i've got to tell you, my executive producer said in my ear that there's a lot of stuff going on there and that it's almost like a rock concert. there's so much paraphernal

how much of a relief for the trump campaign about corey lewandowski. >> it's a huge relief for lewandowski and the campaign. looking back on this, if corey had apologized at the beginning, none of this would have occurred and maybe i was a little too rough. that didn't happen. now he's no staffer wants to be the center of attention in your candidate's campaign. you want to be in the background and push the candidate forward. it's going to be a big relief to him and to his family. >> there still may be a defamation suit filed by this reporter against him for -- based on stuff he said on twitter. certainly not having criminal prosecution has to be a huge relief for all trump supporters. >> it's a big deal. anyone who looks at the florida statute knew this was going to be dismissed easily. and the really big lesson here is we shouldn't presume someone's guilt first of all. and i think this is a moment to commend donald trump for keeping him on staff. any other candidate would have said i can't deal with this. this is too much negative publicity. he stood by him and said i trust this guy, i ta

against lewandowski by a former breitbart news reporter are a fabrication.rivately, however, mr. trump seems more concerned. at least twice in the past week, i'm told his brought lewandowski up in conversations with friends and associates. and asked for opinions on whether the situation was hurting his campaign. in at least one of these exchanges i'm told the message back to mr. trump was that lewandowski's behavior was beyond unacceptable and that the fallout was all the worse because both lewandowski and trump initially insisted there was absolutely no physical contact. in this conversation trump was told -- i am told that the episode is giving republicans serious pause about the professionalism of the trump operation. now, as we've discussed, trump already is bringing in old reagan bush hand paul manford to lead his delegate effort. there's a lot of talk that his role could expand at the expense of lewandowski and his current deputies, something to keep an eye on. that's it for "inside politics." we'll see you tuesday night for the wisconsin primary. up n

and prosecutors argue lewandowski was justified in his actions to protect trump. last night, lewandowski said he was grateful for trump's loyalty during this quote, difficult time and he doesn't remember the incident because it wasn't quote memorable. in a statement, the trump campaign says this. the matter is now concluded. >>> at least nine people were killed and 800 injured after an earthquake struck in japan. it was followed by a second strong tremor. japanese officials say there is no risk of tsunami. images show the damage. collapsed buildings and homes and buckled streets. rescue crews, they are searching for victims at this hour and an 8-month-old baby though was pulled from a collapsed home relatively unscathed. some six hours after the initial tremor. more than 44,000 people spent the night in shelters. a massive relief effort is under way. >>> now to a story sparking heavy debate online. it centers around young children and corporate punishment. >> we have to do it one time. unless you wiggle around. >> the 5-year-old in jasper county, georgia, allegedl

lewandowski continues walking and catches up to donald trump.if he really believed that she was a threat, he would have stayed and neutralized that threat. isn't that going to harm him? >> i'm going to put on my defense hat for a second and the way that i anticipate them defending this is using something the great mark o'mara is very familiar with, is florida law on defense and self-defense and defense of others. and it only requires that you reasonably perceive some application of force and that you used the amount of force reasonably necessary. in essence, you're meeting force with commensurate force. you never want to answer somebody's fist with a ba zuk ka. so the idea is if he perceives her about to touch mr. trump, then perhaps lewandowski saw himself as using reasonable force to counter the perceived force. that may be what we see in terms of self-defense or defense of others. >> mark o'mara, do you agree there's a zimmermann aspect of this incident? >> here is the problem with that. if you're going to use self-defense and defense of othe

it is our understanding the lewandowski -- jolly was close to lewandowski. he had a big shift.at what trump said about the crooked system and rigged system. everything he's been saying. he is on a two-track approach to this right now. on the one hand, in public, he says it is crooked and rigged. they are stealing this from me, et cetera. what is happening behind-the-scenes, he's playing that game because he has to because the nominating process has not changed and doesn't look like it will change. at least not in a dramatic way. the shake up, getting rid of jolly. not getting rid of, but resigning. the move to paul manaford, the move from the contested 1976 convention. bringing on rick wylie from the scott walker campaign. trump people are hoping they can turn this around. >> let's talk about the democrats for a second. we had another big rally last night from bernie sanders. i think he was in buffalo. >> yes buffalo. >> he is spending time in new york city. >> i don't know if bernie. donald in buffalo. bernie was in queens. >> let's listen to what he said. >> it is important b

lewandowski was standing, his vantage point would have been such that he could see that.o in his mind, it's reasonable to believe that he just -- he had just witnessed, observed, a touching or her trying to grab on to mr. trump in some respect and he then reaches in and he pulls her away. from an area in which she was not supposed to be in to begin with. >> the bullet entered where? >> back and to the left. back and to the left. back and to the left. >> the zapruder film. >> the trump campaign released a statement saying the matter is now concluded. in an interview last night, lewandowski said he regrets the distraction but used the occasion to contrast trump's handling of it to others. >> first let me say how much i am thankful for mr. trump and his loyalty in this very, very difficult time. you know, many other candidates, all of the other candidates in the race asked for me to be fired and said i should have my day in court and what we saw today was that they looked at the evidence and decided there was no way they could prosecute this case and move forward so first an

and they said corey lewandowski reaches to protect his boss.ichelle tweeting out, for those asking, the office of prosecutor asked two weeks ago if i would be okay with an apology from core clae and i said yeah but he haven't heard back about it. >> i was never impressed by the nature of this so-called assault. and i think the prosecutors said, it is obvious in a skrul like that, in tight quarters, if you see someone reach out it is perfectly plausible that you were trying to in fact defense of the candidate. to call it assault was a huge overreach. i think we've reached the right place. who lied, who told the truth, that's a separate issue. on the assault charge, i thought was that the grand standing and it is a good thing it was dismissed. >> as we head toward this in july. here's a i had the bit. marco rubio has more delegates today than john kasich does. here's what he said about cruz. >> pretty clear that i want the republican nominee to be conservative. in my view, of the candidates still actively campaigning, the only one who fits that i

trump recoils and lewandowski steps in. the incident highlighting the tense atmosphere at many trump events. in pittsburgh, protesters and trump supporters clashing outside a rally. we're in the middle right now of trump supporters and protesters are going at it. they're literally face to face, about to come to blows. but the anti-trump protests not just at rallies. a group of the billionaire's former reality show apprentices now coming forward to speak out against him. >> come on, kwame, time is money. >> reporter: kwame jackson from season one accusing trump of, quote, "stoking the flames of our worst demons." trump firing back. "how quickly they forget. nobody would know who they are if it weren't for me. six failing wannabes out of hundreds of contestants -- so sad!" and as trump battles his former proteges, senator ted cruz showing his softer side in a town hall meeting with wife, heidi, and daughters caroline and catherine. >> and they both have matching karaoke machines and it is a little frightening, with the two of

lewandowski comes and grabs her arm. >> this whole case is flipped in the past weeks.began with discussions about corey lewandowski's unant wanted touching of michelle fields and now the case hippings on what the state attorney general says is michelle fields are unwanted touching of donald trump. >> any winners. >> it's hard to see any winners. the trump campaign is claim to go victory they've said it's over now. corey lewandowski is gratified by the decision to job the charge and appreciates the thoughtfulful and professionalism by the palm speech state attorney. the state attorney says michelle fields was disappointed the prosecution was not going forward and in the report she said for not listening to secret service instructions to go to the back of the room. >>> the head of the democratic national committee with very tough talk about the run part and the g.o.p. front-runner donald trump. we sat down with who? >> debbie wearsman schultz. we were in her office. >> what did she say? >> a lot toward donald trump. we went there to talk about down-ballot races note, of

. >> reporter: prosecutors arguing campaign manager corey lewandowski was justified in his actions to protect the candidate and citing the video in its decision not to prosecute the top aide for grabbing the breitbart reporter. lewandowsky seen here for the first time turning himself in to jupiter police initially claimed he never touched or even met fields and called her delusional. today the campaign releasing a statement saying the matter is now concluded. trump riding high, set for a record-breaking win in new york despite his rivals' best efforts, both sitting down with msnbc tonight. >> you guys have been suffering under the misguided policies of liberal democratic politicians a long, long time. >> reporter: now his team is courting members of congress and gearing up for a tough delegate battle after the campaign predicted an easy win at the convention with 1,400 delegates, much more than the magic number of 1237. >> we went state by state, and the math added up to 1265. and i'm comfortable. again, it's not guaranteed. we're going to know a lot more tuesday. >> if he doesn't mak

but i am quite certain corey lewandowski will feel pretty vindicated right now.ampaigns would have handled a moment like this is there would have been an apology, or, yes, i did but in the course of normal business. >> this isn't about corey, did he do it, did he not. any normal staffer would have been fired just for lying about the event. the fact that donald trump kept him on staff and would put him on stage after victory to send a signal that this is the type of people i surround myself with is very disturbing. >> all right. let's change direction right now because i'm just told that new york governor andrew cuomo has just been able to join us. governor cuomo, thanks so much for joining us. i know you're a hillary clinton supporter and are in town to rally for raising the minimum wage. just to tackle that substantive issue for one second, what's your response to those businesses who say they can't afford to raise the minimum wage without perhaps eliminating a job or two in their business? >> yeah, look, i don't think there's anybody who will disagree with the

cory lynn do youcorey lewandowski had manhandled a female reporter. as the plane descended into chicago for that evening'sep rally, everything seemed onn track.an no one could know what was in store. it would be the darkest moments the campaign had seen. bret: when we come back we'll show you the outrageous journey of candidate trump from long-shot to frontrunner. and we'll show you exclusive foot and of a near riot on one of trump's campaign stops. this just got interesting. why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas for pulmonary hypertension as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. side effects may include headache, upset stomach, delayed backache or muscle ache. to avoid long

corey lewandowski's response to a question about that, he said those changes mean that we are growing his words. just go back to a conversation you were having about getting o 1,237, according to corey lewandowski we have to get to 1,237 no question about it. >> 95 delegates up for grabs in new york. that's about 8% of the 1,237 needed to secure the nomination on the republican side. let's go to senator ted cruz. he's in philadelphia tonight. should we be reading into the fact that senator cruz is in the state that's not holding a primary tonight, but in a week? >> reporter: that's absolutely right. the cruz campaign and senator cruz himself not projecting confidence in any way at their chances in new york. we just heard senator cruz already wrap up his speech here in philadelphia tonight. his only mention that the new york primary is going on tonight, a brief mention at the top of the remarks where he said i'm not going to talk to you about some politician tonight who is going to win his home state. he said rather he's going to talk about his vision forward so all but ignoring the ne
