[applause] mr. rubio: in about 70 days, the people of florida will choose. and they will have a clear choice to make. politics are at its best when there are clear choices. it is a very clear choice for the future of our country. i am proud of my service and the things we have achieved in my time as speaker of the florida house and the united states senate. i am proud that i passed the v.a. accountability act, so those were not working to help our veterans will be fired on the v.a.. [applause] mr. rubio: i am proud that i sponsored, wrote, and pass the toughest sanctions yet on the terrorist group hezbollah. i am proud that we passed a bipartisan law to go after human trafficking. i am proud that i wrote and recently passed the foreign aid transparency asked we have more and transparency over how your taxpayer money is being spent. i am proud that i led the effort and we got rid of the obamacare bailout fund so your taxpayer money cannot be used to bailout private insurance companies. i am proud to have l

are concerned that a nasty primary race has left democrats week and into the tough fight against mr. rubio. who wins this he is crucial for both democrats and republicans as it could help determine which party controls the senate next year. that is from the wall street journal. you can follow the results of the primaries and arizona and florida. watch here on c-span and c-span.org for all the results. american friends of tel aviv university posted its second annual ideas los angeles conference. they focused on the future of digital technology in media, entertainment, and health. now a panel on the future and privacy of your health care and genetic data. have a great fireside chat about the health care sharing economy. promise, risk and reality. all you have to do is think for one minute about uber and airbnb and what we can do in the health care industry to know this will be interesting conversation. who do we have? >> representative from based health. >> lindsay from we are curious inc.. thiswill be moderated by book business strategy representative. >> how many of you have wearables on?

so, i hope that mccain comes out and verbally supports donald trump, along with mr. rubio. host: thank you for that. joining us on the phone is jeremy, who has been following all of this for the capital times. he is in phoenix with john mccain. thank you for being with us. jeremy: no problem. >> a lot of attention to this race and a win for john mccain. opponent was not a that mccainonent critics have been looking for. that of people were hoping a conservative congressman would jump in the race. kelly ward jumped in and never got a lot of support she was looking to get. she did not get much traction. outside groups backed off of her early. the mccain allies casted her as not serious. host: what about her statement to msnbc where she focused on his age and that he turned 80 years old yesterday. did that backfire question mark >> to some degree, yes. it did not do her any favors. she talked about how it was time for mccain to retire and there thathe implicit it's mccain had been around a long time and that he is an elderly center. the comments made last week did seem a little

mr. rubio's opponent spent $8 mill of his own money. money and what you spend doesn't matter. matters. jeb bush in the primary sent $150 million for three delegates. this is about the mood of the american people. they are beginning to watch closely. they like what they see with mr. trump. they may stay home but in that balance thought booth they will think we have a better chance of something happening with mr. trump. if they were going to vote for hillary they would have already moved into her camp. david: hillary clinton is recognized as an insider traditionalist. and debbie wasserman-schultz, despite having insulted bernie sanders, the outsider, shows that perhaps the bernie sanders people will come to hillary after all. >> these were local races. you don't need that great of a turnout to win in these elections. the whole mystery is can trump turn out the people. they are coming to his rallies, they are very excited. and you know what happened to mitt romney. the voters stayed home. if they stay home begin the many over for trump. if they come out, it will all change. >> wh

rubio is back. earlier this year scoring points for mr. roboto. [singing] >> the single greatest nation in the history of all mankind. >> the greatest nation. >> the single greatest nation in all mankind. >> that will never happen again.... never happen again... again... again. >> now he has new movesful we'll call it the donald trump twist. >> he's a con artist. you have friends thinking about voting for donald trump. friends do not let friends vote for con artists. >> you think donald trump is a con artist? >> i standby what i said during the campaign. >> rubio says he supports trump even though he called him a dangerous con artist we can't trust with nuclear codes. donald trump now after all this. after calling him a dangerous con artist. >> i'll support the republican nominee. hillary clinton can't be president. she's terrible. >> welcome to 2016 with two of the least popular nominees and gair johnson wondering what do i have to do to breakthrough here? tonight we have a lot on tap. we role out a new edition of beach party politics. a great wa

the other thing about rubio is he was mr. gangabee. had a challenger who was trump, and one of the things seen this year with donald trump is that donald trumpism has not been bigger than trump itself. it's -- trumps in running these trump-esque primary challenges had zero success so far, interesting to e me begin that so much of the kind of sub text relations, so much of the election is understood at the will of the trump voters who are not apparently challenging that in other races. >> because trumpism is mainly about trump. his voters are committed to him specifically. let's not forget, he's not actively campaigning on behalf of the other candidates who are even running under his man tell. he's doing little to support the candidates. he's not building an organization, so he's not helping other organizations to be built of other political candidates where that's the key to running. when you run a campaign as a presidential level, you make sure the ballot is a part of it, coordinated campaigns run, whatever people's opinions are, this

mr. trump. marco rubio also trying to move republicans despite nasty exchanges with the gop nominee.ubio backing away from the accusations that could alienate voters in a state where trump remains popular. also the fate of debbie wasserman schultz, the party still furious despite ousting her amid claims that she favored hillary clinton over bernie sanders. >> reporter: now all three of those candidates are expected to win today's primaries by pretty healthy margins. the one wildcard is turnout is probably going to be pretty low. it's going to be unexpected to see who turns outs to the poll. what's a bigger concern for those senators is what happens in the general election and what happens because of what's happening in the presidential race, whether the unpopularity of donald trump will hurt republicans tickets and whether hillary clinton's problems and questions of trust and honesty will hurt democratic candidates. yesterday i had a chance to talk to marco rubio, who's in a particularly awkward position with donald trump, having characterized him so sharply in the primary, but needi

mr. trump campaign with senator rubio? and see.l have to wait iconic ago in july, an human restaurant and that was going to be the first time he would attend the campaign event but that is that was called off after the dallas police shootings. there is not been a similar opportunity for the two men to appear together. >> there are a few jobs that are in political journalism. >> thank you for being with us. we appreciated. >> thank you. >> we want to hear from you. in a couple minutes, we will hear from debbie wasserman democratice congresswoman who want in a closely watched primary challenge but sandra is joining us in washington, d.c. good evening. i actually grew up in south florida. >> what part? >> from hollywood. say is that the people of florida just showed up tonight, they showed us tonight what i have known all along and that debbie wasserman schultz is a lifelong fighter for self order families -- a south florida families. debbie is actually someone who has experience in south florida. she was in the florida state

rubio decided to run for election. that man, carlos beruff has spent $5 million on tv to try to promote himself and align himself with donald trump. what we're seeing is mr. beruff doesn't have the level of support according to the polls to beat marco rubio. expect him to win today. but marco rubio does have to contend with the forces of donald trump in november. he has to win over those donald trump supporters as well owes those disaffected by donald trump. take a listen to what he had to seyed about the thorny issue of immigration and how donald trump should handle it going forward. >> do you hope he reverses his position to deport the 11 million undocumented i'm glants. >> i have consistently said that's not a realistic approach. >> is it realistic to build a wall on the border -- >> you don't need a wall across the entire border, but key sectors, absolutely you need a wall. >> mexico is going to pay for it? >> mexico is not going to pay for it. i've already said that. >> should donald trump soften his rhetoric? >> again, i'm more focused on the democrats' rhetoric on this issue. >> reporter: throughout that interview, john, marco rubio trying to focu

mr. applebaum and senator marco rubio. this was taken at an american legion event in new hampshire just before christmas. about people with disabilities being the victims of violent crime and what he would do to help solve the issue. o'malley with martin in manchester, new hampshire at an american legion event. this was about a month before the iowa caucus. he, at the time, was still in the race for president. and here i am, again, in concord, new hampshire being interviewed by a member of the bloomberg press. i believe this was taken at the kasich event that i was attending at the time. am -- here we have a list of all of the gubernatorial and senatorial races that we are going to be asking questions of. the eventual goal of respectability is not just so we can work with a presidential andidate and the senatorial senatorial candidates. for those of you who may have noticed, we had a list of all of the races coming in. for your information, as of tomorrow, lamont has its primary for governor. that will change. but it prett

mr. trump. if trump defines amnesty as a pathway to citizenship, then he could be leaving open a path to some sort of legal status. problem is, that was jeb bush's and marco rubio's position and trump condemned them as supporting amnesty. that leaves the pathway to legal limbo. no citizenship, no greencard, but you're not likely to be record. and that is exactly the path undocumented immigrants have been on under president obama as immigration reform went nowhere in congress, and a deadlocked supreme court help block the relief obama offered -- relief that hillary clinton has promised to deliver. mike on cam: "so while voters wait for trump to pick his path, limbo is nothing new for those who would be most affected by the choice. for the now, i'm mike sacks." right now...police are trying attack ... at the american university of afghanistan...in kabul. at least 13 people are now confirmed dead...another 36 hurt. police say...the gunmen started shooting...and detonating explosives! police killed two of the suspects. a third blew himself up with a car bomb. no one has claimed responsibility for this attack. the state department said today... no americans were kille

certainly marco rubio said he is supporting donald trump. and i believe mr.as well, when it comes time november eighth. we're more united than the liberal press wants america to believe. we know what is at stake with the people court. we know what is at stake with the rule making and the executive orders that had negative impacts on all businesses around the country and our farmers. what is at stake means we have to keep hillary clinton out of the white house. we need to turn a corner. we can't have an effective third term of barack obama. so i believe that when it all settles down on november 9th and we look back, you're going to see 95% plus of republicans voting for donald trump. but there is a problem, say for mccain or rubio to win primaries. they have to get support from independent voters. big hispanic populations in arizona and florida, for example. do you sense that they may be walking away, at least, a bit from trump to try to gain that support? >> what i do know is all politic social security local, everyone is running their own race, but as mr. tr

rubio. and in arizona, john mccain trying to fight off a challenge from kelly ward who raised the issue of his age. mrcain turned 80 yesterday. former republican governor of arizona, jan brewer is joining me. thank you for being here as always. >> thank you for having me on jake. >> senator mccain who you have endorsed and marco rubio, facing primary challenges today. they both face potentially tough races in november. there are republicans in arizona and elsewhere worried that trump could potentially cost republicans the senate. is that a concern you have at all? >> my advice to john mccain is continue what he has done for our great state for 30 years. he is a warrior. he will win today overwhelmingly and in november he will beat his opponent overwhelmingly also. i think people are concerned about security and jobs and opportunity. and john will help us get that done. and he will work he will work with mr. trump, but he will also stand his ground. that is what a the country needs. they need them to understand the security situation, the tax situation, that is what donald trump is all about, making a

senator john mccain and senator marco rubio are expected to win their contests. both men have endorsed mrtrump and mr. trump has endorsed their campaigns. turn to c-span tonight for the results of those primaries. with that in mind, how do you feel about your legislator currently serving and would you vote to reelect that person in mb

mr. trump because he's an unknown quantity. so it will be very interesting. i'm in florida. that's my home state and we have marco rubioning who has a ton of support. they're looking at spending tens of millions of dollars to support him for this race. that means with the spending that's going to be on both sides we could see spending for a senate race of anywhere from 30 to $60 million. that's like a presidential race. it's just unbelievable how much money is going to be spent on these senate races because who controls the not just the white house but the senate is going to be crucial as we move forward in the next cycle. >> absolutely. jessica mentioned candidates wanting help from trump but you see some of them distancing themselves from trump. why is the right strategy? >> i think as you saw with the paul ryan race, the system and mr. ryan and others got upset when mr. trump said he wasn't necessarily going to endorse or wasn't ready to and there was this outrage and then finally he did. obviously mr. ryan won his race. on one hand they say there's going to be a drag on the down ballot races but they seem very very

mr. trump. i have it all the time. it is a very, very hard thing. >> if you think that sound familiar, it does. it sounds like the position trump taked bush and rubio for during the primary. this apparent flip-flop has republicans crying foul. rush limbaugh stifled his laughter. >> first they tried marco rubio. they tried the gang of 8. they tried jeb bush. they tried any number of people. to convince -- they tried me. they tried everybody they could think of to try to convince the republican base to support some form of amnesty. who knew that it would be donald trump. to come forward and convert the gop base. to supporting amnesty. >> ann coulter, one of trump's most outspoken supporters is out with a new book called "in trul. we trust." she writes the following. there is nothing trump can do to be forgiven except change immigration policies, unquote. faced with that scenario, coulter has softened her own language. here is what she told the washington examiner in an interview published earlier today. >> mostly worries me rhetorically, the policy is, anyone who is here illegally is here illegally. does not have a right to be here. we will decide wh

senator john mccain and senator marco rubio are expected to win their contests. both men have endorsed mrtrump and mr. trump has endorsed their campaigns. turn to c-span tonight for the results of those primaries. with that in mind, how do you feel about your legislator currently serving and would you vote to reelect that person in november? tell us if you would or would not and why. there are the lines. you can tell us if you would reelect your members of congress on our social media pages. focused -- post on our facebook page. the headline of the "washington post ." the headline says "mccain walks tightrope in tough reelection race." alex bolton is with us to talk about that race and others. guest: good morning. host: tell us about senator mccain's race. guest: he is running against kelly ward. it is a very tight race. actually, no, it is not a tight race. he is up by 26 points over ward according to the cnn poll, but it is a very nasty race. ward went on television recently and said mccain is too old to be reelected and she also made the point, as a former position, she said, i know th

rubio! >> and joining me now, joan walsh of "the nation," jamil smith, 2016 presidential candidate jim gilmore. mr going to talk to you, you were not in that soliloquy, he did not include you in his list of horribles, but if you were advising the trump campaign now, where would you advise him to start if you want to get specific about these apologies? i'm going to go right to birtherism, which is not only the first time donald trump has made a national splash on a political sense, but hurt him most with african-americans, do you think he should apologize for demanding it to see barack obama's birth certificate? >> you know, joy, i think the main thing for him to do is begin to change the dialogue of the campaign. look, i'm not a political adviser, i was a candidate myself, i wanted to be the nominee, but you've given a long litany here of things that donald trump has said and that, you know, has been promoted and i think the clinton campaign will continue to promote that kind of thing. what donald trump needs to do is reassure the american people that he's a reasonable man, that he doesn't intend

mr. mayor. you do make changes. every team makes changes. >> this is a good thing. this is what marco rubiom bringing ted cruz's campaign manager. that thing that helped to turn the campaign around. the main thing is, forget the staff, the staff is enormously important, the most important thing is the candidate. donald trump had two tremendous days. those two speeches were the two most sub stan innocence. i would say historic speeches that any presidential candidate has made in a very long time. the one yesterday, the one last night -- consider how dangerous that was. going into milwaukee in the middle of the riots and talking about law and order, but also talking about what needs to be done to help minority communities, african-american communities, poor communities to come out of the situation they're in. no one has offered answers like that together. >> mr. mayor, let's play some of that and talk about it. >> brilliant, brilliant speech. >> law and order must be restored. to every voter in milwaukee, to every voter living in the inner city or every forgotten stretch of our society, i'm r

mr. trump understands any of it. he hasn't offered any credible solutions for the very real economic challenges we face. >> so joining us now from washington is gop strategist and former rubio terry sullivan and democratic strategist morris reed. morris, we'll start with you on hillary clinton and donald trump really. we spoke earlier with the chief global economist at citigroup on worldwide exchange and he said he's worried about the united states because if donald trump gets elected he sees the risk rising of a trade war, and if hillary clinton gets elected he sees the risk of a trade war as well. >> a lot of anxiety by the nature and tone of what both candidates are saying about trade. however it's one thing to run as a candidate and another to be to run a government. i don't think we'll be as bombastic and anti-trade when either one gets into the office. i do, however, think that hillary clinton has a better track record and plan of expanding markets so i'm not as -- i don't see it as a glass half empty. i think that both want to get in the oval office understand the way to expand jobs is to open markets. that's what i believe fundamentally. >> the opposite of what they

mr. earnest: i think the answer to that is pretty obvious, which is, that even a week delay would not have prevented paul ryan and marco rubiom falsely claiming they were ransoms. announce this financial settlement on the same day the prisoners were released, that is fodder to our republican critics, i get that. >> there is an election coming up. it goes both ways. >> of that is just part of today's nearly 90 minute white house briefing, you can see all .f it online at www.c-span.org we will hear from homeland security secretary, talking about the election system, and may be a critical if a critical infrastructure, just like the financial sector and the power grid. we will have that for you tonight at 8:00. and over the course of the next few weeks on c-span, we keep track of what the members are up to while congress is in recess. in response to the dallas police shootings a few weeks ago, texas fbi andmet with the their rapid response training center in texas. here is a look at the video he shot. >> we just witnessed an active shooter scenario in the alert center. we to learn more about integrating local state law enforceme
