chris matthews: no, i am asking you. mr. trump: i am pro-life. mr. matthews: how do you actually do it? donald trump: you go back to a position like they had where people were perhaps go to illegal places, and you have to ban it. mr. matthews: they go to somebody who flunked out of medical school. donald trump: how do you feel about that catholic church position on abortion? mr. matthews: concur with their moral position, but not legally. donald trump: but what do you say about your church? chris matthews: churches make their morals. you are running for president, chief executive of the united states. do you believe in punishment for abortion, yes or no? donald trump: the answer is there has to be someform of punishment. chris matthews: for the woman? donald trump: yes. mr. matthews: 10 years? what? you take positions on everything else. mr. trump: i do take positions on everything else. it is political. mark: the political world has been reacting to that fascinating exchange. john kasich was in queens, new york, and he criticized donald trump's answe

chris matthews: should the women be punished? for having an abortion? mr. ump: look -- chris matthews: this is not something you can dodge. should it be punished? donald trump: people in certain parts of the republican party would say yes. chris matthews: but would you? donald trump: i would say it is a very serious problem. it is a problem we have to decide on. mr. matthews: you are for banning it. mr. trump: are we going to say put them in jail? chris matthews: no, i am asking you. you say you want to banning, what does that mean? mr. trump: i am pro-life. mr. matthews: how do you actually do it? donald trump: you go back to a position, like they had where people would perhaps go to illegal places, and you have to ban it. mr. matthews: they go to somebody who flunked out of medical school. donald trump: how do you feel about that catholic church position on abortion? mr. matthews: i concur with their moral position, but not legally. donald trump: but what do you say about your church? chris matthews: churches make their morals. you are running for presiden

mr. matthews had a tendency to try to sexually assault females.rocess of that, he would choke them if they were not willing to have sex with him. >> how did carolyn die? >> her death was ruled a strangulation. so thingsta matching up. >> reporter: ynobe had never been convicted of sexual assault, but in the files the detective read the story one particularly brutal assault. a case ended up being charged as a misdemeanor -- unlawful restraint. it was kristin's. ynobe was the man she says almost killed her. >> i was certain that he had done this before. but at the same time i didn't think he would do it again. >> reporter: the detective called ynobe matthews back down to the station for another interview. decided to pull a fast one with his suspect, telling him he was about to get dna results from the crime scene. >> what -- were you really about to get it that quickly? >> we weren't going to get it that quickly that day but trying to get him to believe that we had that information, that we had everything that we needed. i had contacted my superviso

mr. matthews.ndrea, very quickly, i think what's interesting, jane, more defiant than the statement from the campaign. the statement from the campaign is like, we're going to finish the process, hard stop. >> jane and bernie sanders are defiant about this whole thing. i talked to bernie today. i was out and about as he was walking through philadelphia before he headed to west virginia tonight. he knows he's not going to do well here in pennsylvania, but he is in it until the end. he said he's in it until the last vote is counted in california. and i said what about the district of columbia, my new home, our new home -- >> your home. >> and he said until after the last vote in the district of columbia, of course which is june 14th. the sanders are determined to follow this through. if there's any reassessing, it's the tone, the strategy, where to put resources. >> that's what it's about. and i think "the times," people misread the headlines. >> our colleagues jumped all over this. >> buts it the wor

mr. matthews. >> i would like to have you speak now. i missed you in the repertoire world. this is your return from where? >> a sabbatical really. >> i understand you've come back because of the race. >> i think this is the argument, the never trump people are going to have to say. this man is not like another candidate. with a different set of views. he is actually a threat to our entire political system. what he represents is a kind of real, you know, powerful source from below that wishes to abrogate, to destroy our alliances, global religious war, he delights in, rather than tamp down, racial a live possibility. he would be a president that would do anything but calm things down. so when you have such a figure, such a terrifying figure in the race, you have to begin to say no. >> why are the -- you have this massive conflict, which will be addressed in new york to some extent of a republican party, which says basically we've got to give to him with the most delegates, even though he said the things on ban on islam, coming into the country, the wall, all these things. >>

mr. matthews there who's catholic and pro-choice, and it was clear that chris had thought about this. but he clearly had not thought about this. i think this is a different moment for donald trump. i think in part because it's coming at the time so much of this has come before him and republicans, some of them are being fed up. also wisconsin. i was in wisconsin this past week. talk radio there is not his friend. conservative talk radio is not his friend. the forces aligning against him are strong and big. and ted cruz i expect to have a very strong night on tuesday. >> you mentioned talk radio, inside of state of wisconsin it's a vibrant industry. rush limbaugh saying sorry, mr. trump, i defend you, but this is republican 101. george w. bush changes his position, you can change your position as long as you can explain why. and being unprepared at this point in the campaign is what has everybody thinking, whoa. right? >> yeah. you know, we focus on the abortion issue in this country. i think the rest of the world is quite stunned by what he also had to say this week about nuclear weap

matthews there. that happened just here on msnbc. mr. trump, the republican front-runner, pontificating on how he would punish women who might dare to try to have an abortion in this country. something which he would try to ban if he was president of the united states. well, after that clip was released today and several varieties of heck broke out across the political spectrum, mr. trump ultimately changed his mind. several hours after he said that to chris matthews. he put out a statement saying he actually wants to jail or punish doctors, not necessarily women, for the crime of having an abortion. that is not at all what he said out loud when chris matthews asked him about it today on camera. now, because this all happened while i was talking to hillary clinton at the apollo theater today and we did not know about it until after that conversation was over, i ended up -- i kid you not -- left the apollo theater, came back to my office then turned right back around, rushed back out again to find her again. after our interview was done b

matthews. everyone is out to try and stop donald trump from winning the nomination. >> was the question unfair? >> no, not at all. mrtrump answered the question, he just answered it after chris matthews said, but for women, and he just said yes. mr. trump was speaking about the legality. this was a hypothetical context of something happening that was illegal. mr. trump was just reinstating yes, if something is illegal, they should be punished. that's why he clarified for distinguishing the difference between the woman and the actual person committing the procedure that is not legal. >> let me ask you about these polls that show trump has a 73% disapproval rating with women. 73% of american women disapprove of him. mitt romney was viewed as unfavorable by 51% of women before the 2012 election. he lost with women, he only got 44% of their vote and he was killed in that election. so 51% unfavorable vote, he managed to get 44% of the voting for him. and he lost in an electoral landslide to barack obama. how is donald trump going to do better than that with a 73% disapproval rating? >> i think there are a couple of thing

matthews interview. here's what to expect, mr. president or mr. trump. if he can be himself, he can do it with communications people around him. >> not always. you can have great communications people, but it comes from the top, so you can prep somebody for an interest screw over and over again. when they walk in there, it's them, not the communications people's fault. >> right now, if you listen to the way, read the story about what makes up donald trump's team of 94, compared to 760 for hillary clinton, it's too lean. i think he would have said -- he's the business expert, he's got to assess the situation, yeah, i saved a lot of money. i shouldn't be saving money any more. i have to get communications experts in with me, to brief me on things i couldn't possibly know. >> he's brought in paul maniport, he understands there's a game going on for those delegates, so he brought in someone who's an old wiseman of republican politics to play the game. he's even thinking of suing in louisiana. i was on abc last -- yesterday, they said. >> you did great by the

mr. trump coming out with positions like last month telling chris matthews i think a woman should be punished having an illegal abortion and having four different portions on abortion which i didn't even know was possible within 24 hours, that's what happens moving forward. as he tries to pivot to be presidential, he's starting to take positions on issues he's never thought about much before and it's going to put people like his surrogates in a box. >> kelly and, bill, we want to get to you. but kellyanne, do you support what ted cruz says on this, that the north carolina law is great, and transgender people should have to use the bathroom that corresponds to their birth certificate. >> i will let senator cruz speak to -- >> you didn't even the question either. you just criticized jeff -- >> you criticized me -- >> what i criticized him for doing is very simple which is you asked him a question about his candidate and he attacked senator cruz and tried out great sound bites that rhymed. whatever. >> let's hear you answer the question. i'm sayi i'm. >> i'm saying senator cruz is drawing a brig

matthews asks a question and trump took it literally. he sets up a hypothetical. something that will never, ever happen again. abortion is illegal. mr. trump, mr. trump. abortion is illegal. what happens to women who have abortions? well, trump has to think fast here. two things happen. in micro flash seconds. he thinks, i have to make sure i'm consistent on law and order here. i think what donald trump said is what he thinks republicans and conservatives want to hear. >> this is what he is facing. among women, favorable. unfavorable. this is what it was before the town hall. this is the average of reason polls. and ted cruz with the slightly lead over donald trump. we're back. let's bring in our panel. charles lane, opinion writer for the "washington post" and singled indicated columnist charles krauthammer. okay, he was in d.c. today meeting with the rnc. your thoughts. >> i think even in the pre roe versus wade era, where abortion was prohibited in most of the states, women were not prosecuted. only those who performed the abortions were prosecuted. i think he has not thought this through. i'm going to suggest he probably hand eve
