let's talk about paul ryan, for example. >> for example. >> i'm not naming names but paul ryan last night talked about the post-election world. he came out there, after some real hesitation a few weeks ago, few months ago, he came ussout there in support of his candidate. listen. >> i like to look at it this way. the next time that there's a state of the union address, i don't know where joe biden or barack obama are going to be, but you'll find me right there on the roster with vice president mike pence and president donald trump. >> amanda, you are paul ryan, how do you play this game here right now? >> well, he needs to give people who are reluctant to support trump a safe place to land. i think in a few years from now, we may be talking about ryan republicans, because he is the speaker of the house. he has to lay out a legislative agenda. and what he does in the house, he has people who are going to look at him for leadership, and if trump is president or not, it doesn't really matter. you know that trump isn't interested in the policy, the messaging. ryan is. in a very intense and fo

house of representatives, paul ryan. speaker ryan, welcome. >> thanks for having me. good to be with you. >> we want to spend as much time tonight as we can with the audience questions but there are a few items, headlines in the news, that i want to take some time to talk to you about very briefly. first of all, obviously you were not able to go to dallas today for the memorial service. we heard from president obama, president bush. what would you have said had you spoken? >> something similar, actually. i think i liked their words. i'm glad both presidents were there. i would have basically taken my mom's advice. you've got two ears and one mouth and use it in that proportion. the point i would say is we need to show mutual respect. we need to do more listening. but the first thing i would have done is to show our support for law enforcement. to show our support for men and women who when they leave their families every morning with a badge on their chest, they put their lives at risk to protect ours. and we have to acknowledge that. at the same time, i also think it

paul ryan sitting on the side with his -- >> paul ryan's speaking tonight. >> i know.he same way i did. you don't want people to not do what their conscience tells them is right. >> and you also saw paul ryan put out a statement praising the selection of mike pence, a man who served in congress, who served as governor of indiana to tremendous success. one of the best bond-rated states in the country. amazing job creation. great relationships in washington. >> how do you feel like the "60 minutes" interview went? >> i think they did great. they complimented each other. the problem is everyone wants to look for the differences. but what makes this a great ticket is they complement each other. if you're looking for parity and 100%, then you know, we can clone somebody. but the reality is this is a great ticket. they bring a lot to it. they're going to get things done. the problem is right now a lot of people who want the same old same old, this isn't what they're going to get. he's a non-traditional candidate. he's a successful businessman. he's a successful man in the en

paul ryan is in no way saying he's abandoning his support. paul ryan is saying is he disagrees with a larger policy. let's go back to the point. donald trump and all americans of course have the utmost respect for captain khan and his parents, but this should not be politicized. mr. khan is now going out on political networks and political shows and using personal attacks against donald trump. speaking of a black soul, if anybody said that about hillary clinton, there would be a huge uproar. the real issue is islamic jihadi jihadists, the ones that actually kill mr. khan's son. >> let me just push back. to not politicize it, perhaps do you think this is something donald trump should not have reacted to at all, should have let this one sit, and said this comes from a grieving father and i'm not going to react to his criticism this time. >> at the dnc, there were pe personal attacks. trump is educated and thoughtful. and anyone who's educated has reed the constitution. donald trump has the right to respond, just as anyone would want to respond

paul ryan has to pull together law and order essentially for the house. he can't be staging a coup against the republican nominee. the best thing he can do is wave the generic red flag. >> we don't have time toe play the chris christie sound again. chris christie prosecuting, literally prosecuting hillary clinton. asking the crowd if she was guilty or not guilty. what do you see as he was looking out of that crowd? >> chris christie was playing the role of attack dog that he wasn't actually given, right. he sees his job as now he's got nothing to lose. he's got, really, no future other than his double down on the commitment to the trump campaign. he might as well go all in. for him going all in saying every sort of rash, ridiculous breathy thing that comes to his mind and seeing what the crowd will say about it. chris christie is committed to the trump campaign. he's got no plan "b." he still could get a job with the trump -- i think he really went over the line and really went over the top but he's not no choice. >> that was chris christie, there were ot

. >> what do you want the republican leaders to do, mish mcconnell and paul ryan? >> they have sat with him, as we have been aware in public, they have advised him, they have counseled him. the entire leader ship of the republican party, i know the republicans are as patriotic as the democrats, as the independents, but he had promised them to mend his ways, harmful ways, hurtful ways and policies, but again he comes back on the same page, it is the majority leaders ethical obligation to not worry about the words, but repudiate him, withdraw the support, if they do not, i will continue to speak and i am speaking. i have received tremendous support from republicans saying to me that in last, they have never voted in democratic -- for democrats. this year, they have not going to vote republican because for the office of president because of this candidate. >> you have obviously received an overwhelming response to your speech and many republicans have reached out to you to say they appreciate your words. what is the supporters of donald trump, have you heard from them

i kind of felt bad for paul ryan.elt like he was a guy trying to shovel this huge bolder up a very, very steep hill here, trying to project. his purpose here was very simple. he wanted to send a message to america about what it means to be a republican at a time that not a lot of people are actually hearing that message. donald trump's message has been very focused on himself. i think paul ryan is trying to set an agenda for the republican party that will help down-ballot candidates when i think he and a lot of other republicans are worried about what the top of the ticket may be doing. >> does this matter, karl? you've been to a lot of these conventions? does a speech like paul ryan like that make any difference? >> it helps informs people's thinking. what happens at a convention is it wakens partisans to what it is we're trying to do. and mo, i think, is right. i think paul ryan attempted to say here's what i think we ought to be making the campaign about. that's why i think this speech was so important. >> here's w

paul ryan on capitol hill. he did talk about hillary clinton and like senate majority leader mitch mcconnell before him, at least shaped his remarks around being against hillary clinton, against progressivism, against liberalism and the party needs to unite. >> woodruff: he was almost sounding like a cheerleader, he was saying we can do this, we can be a cheerlear, we can turn this around. it was a pretty remarkable speech. >> paul ryan understands, states like ohio and florida, republicans don't have a chance at the white house. paul ryan said before he took the speakership, he was trying to grow attendance of the republican party. he wants more african americans, more women, he wants to speak to them and whether or not he can get them into the fold, paul ryan has believed that and i think he's trying to cover a more expansive message for par party. >> we have sue davis fighting behind kevin mccarthy. we'll give a couple of moments to governor mccarthy. >> the government iran and the rise of i.s.i.s. republica

paul ryan says, yes, but otherwise it's hillary clinton. what's your reaction as someone who has to work with paul ryan? that's a colleague of yours. >> you know, i like paul ryan, and to a certain extent, i feel bad for him. but this is a moment of moral choice. and if he says that hillary clinton is worse than a openly racist, muslim-hating misogynist who wants to build a wall to exclude mexicans, who thinks that an american judge because of his mexican lineage cannot be fair to him, if you're saying that hillary clinton is worse than all that, then i just think that that just is ridiculous, it's absurd, and it really starts to damage the inspector's credibility. and i don't say that easily, because i think that, you know, paul ryan, you know, could be a great leader for our country. but i think that he is in a moral choice moment, and so far, he's choosing wrong. >> i wanted to go through some of the polling on race in the country right now. because obviously, you know, race and -- is always a sub text in american politics, sometimes it'

but he wouldn't listen to them so they came up and spoke outside of paul ryan's personal border wall h a letter, and in that letter it said speaker ryan, if you cared as much about our families as you care about your donors, our kids might still be alive. you know, speaker ryan was leaving his house at that time. he hopped into his suv and he was wisked away to a picnic. and left those women in the dust. i would argue that if speaker ryan had listened to them ahead of time, they wouldn't have done that. but is nobody to advocate for them. they reached out to me because they know i'm running against speaker ryan. they wanted an advocate and i'm a willing advocate on their behalf. lou: understood. paul ryan is himself a figure who is controversial. he is supporting tpp. i want to go through just a couple issues. do you support the trans-pacific partnership, the free trade deal? >> no. first all, it's not a free trade deal. they disconnected word from their means. this is a crony trade deal. the stakes in this election could not be any higher. paul ryan if he's re-elected will push throu

paul ryan standing there with mike pence. paul ryan in a very uncomfortable position right now. a lot of republicans like paul ryan in a very uncomfortable decision supporting donald trump. but they like mike pence. they are close with mike pence. that could bring ryan in the fold. this is controversy. if you remember, that's not what we are looking for but there is controversy around mike pence as governor of indiana. there it is. if you remember anything about mike pence as governor of indiana the past few years it was the freedom bill he passed that saw there is a choice to serve as gay weddings and that controversy would go into a big way which may be the down side. pence maybe one of four finalists in the mix at this hour. another one of them is new jersey governor chris christie and just hours ago, christie broke his sigh leps on the veep stakes and gave an exclusive one on one to our own nicole wallace. >> when you checked your blackberry, you heard any news? >> no. >> you still do not know? >> no. >> you think donald trump made a decision? >> don't know. >> you really do

>>> and we're back with house speaker paul ryan. we are down to our last few questions for you, speaker ryan. we're going to start with jason hill here, a commercial banker from new york city, a registered republican. he is supporting donald trump but he says it's only because he would never vote for hillary clinton. jason? >> good evening, mr. speaker. >> hey, jason, how are you doing? >> very good, thanks. i'm a republican primarily because i believe in strong fiscal conservatism. many people i talk to agree with republican policies over economics but refuse to vote for our candidates because of issues on racism and change the perceptions that paint us as intolerant? >> that's a good question. i hate the fact you feel the need to even ask that question because the principles that we so dearly believe in and behold are those foundation principles that are equality for all before the law. we are all equal in the eyes of god. we're all equal, whether you believe in god or not. that is the foundation stone of who we are and what we be

this was the moment of paul ryan's speech. a lot of it was ho hum.is message of unity did an amazing job of rallying the crowds. >> chris christie spoke as well at one point saying hillary clinton's career disqualifies her. >> we cannot promote someone as commander-in-chief move who made the world more violent as commander-in-chief with every bad judgment she has made. we can't make the chief law enforcer of the united states she lied to the american people and lied d it day after day after day. here it is. we didn't just disqualify hillary clinton to be president of the united states, the facts of her life and career disqualified her. >> the democrats hated this moment. >> it is not surprising. it is a complete attack against hillary clinton the whole speech was. republicans loved it. independents were along b minus. we saw democrats as high as republicans. this is an effective argument he was making. it was very much like he was using that experience. it was effective for the people he wanted to target. he is not going to bring democrats to his sid

house speaker paul ryan announcing trump's official party nomination. this comes only one day after delegates from the never trump movement briefly staged a revolt against trump's nomination on monday. the rebellion threw the first day of the convention into chaos, but the effort was quashed by party leadership. some dissenting delegates booed during tuesday's roll call vote. the second day of the rnc was dubbed "make america work again." during the prime time speeches, donald trump, jr., spoke about his father's business records and negotiation skills. analysis shows donald trump has been involved in nearly 4000 lawsuits over his business career. his son did not mention these. most of the speakers spoke far more about former secretary of state secretary clinton than about trump's plan to create jobs. dr. ben carson used his medical expertise to criticize potential "theyn voters, saying, are not using their god-given brain to think about what they ." saying new jersey governor chris christie also criticized clinton. >> answer me now, is she guilty or no

we don't yet know the details of what paul ryan is bringing to a vote.at he said after you conducted that sit-in. let's listen to this. >> this is nothing more than a publicity stunt, that's point number one, point number two, is that this bill was defeated in the united states senate. number three, we're not going to take away a citizen's due process rights. we're not going to take away a citizen's constitutional rights without due process, that was already defeated in the senate. this is not a way to try and bring up legislation. >> so congressman, it looks like the pressure you put on has worked to the point of moving paul ryan, at least to bringing something to a vote. >> well, i mean, we did the sit-in because we really wanted to break this long jab and force to bring two bills to the floor. universal background checks and watch list from being able to buy a gun. it gal ve niezed our caucus but people all across the country. yesterday we had a national day of action, dozens of places across the country where people added for this demand of responsib

i'm looking forward to seeing paul ryan.he walk the line that he has decided to draw for himself and talk about the policy and future. that actually, juan, what you're talking about appealing broader out of the base, paul ryan may try to do that tonight, maybe you'll give him some applause tomorrow. >> i like paul ryan. >> don't hold your breath. >> by the way, i think he'll talk about the agenda for the house. >> all right, i don't -- i'm not sure the speakers last night will persuade. but you know who will. hillary clinton. every time when she opens her mouth, a thousand people run screaming. she sounds like the warden at like cellblock h explaining curfew. i listened to the naacp speech, it didn't matter what she was saying, the cadence is so manufactur manufactured, the more she talks, the more it helps trump. >> all right, we're going to leave it there. we have a lot more to get to today. two of donald trump's -- tonight, two of his children, tiffany and donald, jr. we're going to tell you what to expect on night two of

we have paul ryan speaking and governor chris christie speaking. we also have two of donald trump's kids and donald trump jr. and tiffany speaking. what are you looking for this evening? >> with respect to the children, more personalization of donald trump. who he is as a father and as a person. but chris christie i think if he does his job tonight that he will really get that place moving. >> absolutely the same thing frank. that it will be their job tonight whether they will do that tonight who knows. but the last convention that they did not give a good view. but mainly about him. and this time that it has to be about donald trump. >> what about paul ryan? >> that will be an interesting one to see because of course that they would have this dicey relationship. i mean what else can you do? they officially put their dad over the top to officially hand their nomination. and your thoughts? >> i thought it was nice, a good family thing. they have been involved in this campaign from the beginning. it seems right when they went over with one leading th

we heard from house speaker paul ryan tonight. did he do enough to talk about getting the party together and unifying? >> well, sweet lord almighty, kelly, it's like herding cats trying to get all these republicans together on the same page, and quite frankly, paul ryan hasn't been very helpful in that. just the other day, he was saying that donald trump wasn't his kind of conservative, but look, he came out tonight and he did a good job. he rallied the base, and quite frankly, some of his biggest applause lines last night, rather, some of his biggest applause lines came when he did talk about party unity. but i've got to tell you something, i've wandered through the streets and the restaurants and the bars around cleveland, and republicans are not unified yet. >> i like your tennessee slang there, sweet lord almighty. real quickly, before we let you go, chris christie, did he hit a home run tonight? >> we have another saying back in tennessee, he backed up and he brought it and he certainly did, pulling off a judge judy. i think

this year, paul ryan managed to make it so that he did not have to show up and get sworn in. after the but had happened, we know that paul ryan and his enthusiasm for trump has been a bit. he has been reluctant to weigh in. it's no surprise that he is not here to provide over that divisive seen. >> thank you we will talk to you again at 6 pm. >> will have more on the republican national convention. coming up, the cbs evening news is in cleveland. shut the golden state warriors a step closer to returning to san francisco. a judge clears the way for this new arena in the mission bay neighborhood. this is a big victory for the city. >> reporter: and a big victory for the warriors as well. they ought to be building an 18,000 seat arena. that arena true that wrath of very powerful people in the city. they say they would interfere with the hospital and also that this space to be better used for biotech research. the lawyer said no, this is where the arena will go. and today the judge agreed with him. saying those objectives about traffic in such did not have to wait needed to stop

paul ryan, your fellow wisconsinite. he condemned it today. let me play the clip.your reaction to what ryan said. >> i believe we have to clean up the way this new media works. most importantly, one of the few times i spoke out against him during the primary, very forcefully was in this area. when he failed to disavow white supremacists. look, let me make this really, really clear. i think he has to clean this up. >> are you agreeing with the speaker? >> well, i think they did. they did. the guy that did this tweet talked about it. he went through every step of how he picked out the star from microsoft. i think it is called microsoft paint and picked out the star. realized obviously very quickly that it was not a smart idea. went back and changed to it a circle. i think that they sort of, you know, owned this and changed it. but obviously, you don't want to see things like that. mistakes like that happen in the future. i think they figured it out. >> do you believe that was a sheriff's star or a star of david with all those $100 bills behind it? >> the point is if

but this was a very paul ryan speech. meaning, he didn't -- you know, he didn't use it to go over the top in political rhetoric. he wants to be seen as the policy guy of the party. and so this is the most policy-like speech you're going to get at a political convention. i don't want to sit here and say, oh, this was a substantive speech. it is a substance-filled speech for a political convention, but it's sort of the persona that ryan is trying to align. it's interesting. that's a speech that would have been part of his acceptance speech. the only person that probably could have stopped the trump bandwagon, if the never trump people had gotten him to do it, would have been if paul ryan had agreed to be the alternative. you can kind of tell here by the reception he got here at the end, that this is a hall, that paul ryan could have had in the palm of his hands, if he had ever wanted to, rather than just sit back the way he decided to do. >> we're entering the heart of the order tonight. chris christie will start it off, fo

this is a policy speech, invoked the feelings of jack kemp, paul ryan.e talked about opportunity, school choice. that was a republican speech and i think the most effective speech we have seen in the convention so far. >> a reminder this is as much a republican convention this a trump convention. >> absolutely a trump convention. and the trumps are the people the people at the convention want to hear from. even the people who have not signed off on donald trump enthusiastically have told me, the kids are the people they want to hear from. this speech not only did good policy. but also talked about his father as a determined person and then sweet anecdotes just mixed in without them being syrupy. but all of donald trump's children except the 10-year-old standing there, saying we put our father over the top as the nominee of the republican party. that is a moment in history. >> no question about it. and it follows melania trump, donald trump's wife last night. i want to go to david muir. all day long, the trump campaign has had to deal with the controversy

then paul ryan took the stage.ere was a momentary gaffe when he introduced paul ryan as the next president of the united states. and then when you're talking about john mccain and sarah palin, he spoke about her for about seven minutes -- excuse me, about ten minutes. and bush and cheney, bush spoke about cheney for about seven minutes. donald trump went on for 29 minutes in this speech today, going after hillary clinton part of it. and also talking about himself. relitigating the primaries, talking about how he was able to win among 17 candidates, and what an accomplishment that was. talking about the deals he's made and how people laughed at him when he said that the uk was going to vote for brexit. much of this speech was about donald trump. and very little of it was about governor pence, frankly. when governor pence finally did take the stage, donald trump, which is usually customary, did not stand on stage with him, instead, leaving the stage immediately after governor pence took the podium. as scattered as tr

night two, last chance to say something, paul ryan. (cheers and applause). >> trevor: welcome to the daily show, everyone, i'm trevor noah. this is night two of our republican national convention coverage. here in cleveland, ohio, people! we're here! where it's happening! our guest tonight i couldn't be more excited renowned journalist and host of amanpour, christiane amanpour is joining us, everybody. (applause) but first, but first, guys, honestly this has been such an exciting day. so much has really happened. tonight wednesday was the night where we heard speeches from the republican candidate was got destroyed by trump. so i was hoping, i was hoping that tonight donald trump would hum il yait ted truz on stage for old time sake. but donald trump didn't even wait until tonight. and this is true. ted cruz was speaking this afternoon in cleveland and trump interrupted him with his plane. >> our party now has the nominee. and i don't know-- all right. that was pretty well orchestrated. jeff, did you e-mail them to flied plane right wh

and paul ryan was not then considered a favorite for the vice presidential slot on the republican ticket. the two of them just clearly got along so well, that by the end of two or three rallies, i thought he may pick him because they're kind of a nice fit. and as you said, i think you saw a little bit of that with gingrich tonight. >> i also wondered too, we see ernst apparently not being interested. corker pulling out of the mix on this. the idea that the vice presidential candidate has to fall in line on everything. anything trump goes out there and says between now and election day, it's the job of the vice presidential candidate to support it, echo it, defend it, to never so any distance between him or herself and the candidate. and i wonder if what separates newt gingrich from the other candidates is his willingness to do that. >> you're pretty much all in if you're donald trump's running mate. i would dish between what corker said, which seemed to be, i'm not going to be the vice presidential candidate this time around and joni ernst, who said, i want to focus on my home state. whi

but i don't know, i think -- is trump a tattoo or a stain on paul ryan? ths? what are they thinking right now about how this impacts his run in 2020? >> i saw some close friends of speaker ryan off the floor, and they were watching ryan, and it was a strange moment, because you think back four years ago, paul ryan is there at a republican convention as the vice presidential nominee. it's a different party, a different time making the case on entitlement reforms and sweeping tax cuts, and now he's there to introduce donald trump, to make sure donald trump secures the nomination. and they say ryan believes the party could still shift back to those jack kemp style politics, kind of the uplifting brand of republican politics that focus on poverty and tax cuts, but they're not that sure about it. >> here you have the would-be future of the republican party, paul ryan. he's on early in the night, he's not highlighted by the trump campaign. the room wasn't really paying attention to this the speech. it was kind of a listless room. he didn't seem like his heart wa

joining me now in a kelly file exclusive, house speaker paul ryan.e. >> good to be with you. thanks for having me. >> why do you say that, that people are going to believe she's above the law, because the fbi director, by all accounts a straight shooter, says no reasonable prosecutor would have brought this case? >> he basically spent a number of minutes walking through how she not only mishandled classified information, how she was grossly negligent, it seemed to me as he was going through his case, it seemed he was going to recommend prosecution, only then he recommended against prosecution. people have been convicted for far less. the point is, yes, this certainly does underscore the belief the clintons live above the law. this is one of the reasons why people are so dissatisfied, so upset about government. they think that people live by a different set of rules, and the clintons, they take the candle on this one. number one, the fbi should give us all of their findings. they should release all of their findings of this information. she's actually

when paul ryan said it's time to come together, from all of the speeches that we heard this afternoone we came on the air at 10:00, they were more about hillary clinton than they were about -- about donald trump. mitchell mcconnell, for example, mentioned hillary clinton 26 times in his speech. he mentioned donald trump six she was accused of everything from who would of thought it to a theory epidemic or something. if there was anything she was not accused of, i missed it appear and that is what is so unusual. because, scott, american campaigns are usually won by the most optimistic candidate. and the economist magazine just this week cited ronald reagan as being the most in recent camp of that. mike pence, today, went to great trouble to sort of catalog all of the similarities between ronald reagan and donald trump. now donald trump, i admit he has his strengths, but if they are going to try to sell him and say this is another ronald reagan, i'm sorry, i think that is going to be a hard sell. >> the trump campaign continues to play down the plagiarism controversy surrounding melania

paul ryan: they need to drop politics and pass the bill.el everyone agreed to the contents of the bill people think are wise. they wanted no offset. we partially offset it, the democrats for some reason dieted to play politics with it. they needed to drop the politics and respond to this real need. >> senator scott said they were talking about his experiences as a black lawmaker and how he has been stopped by capital police. do you know how congress is reacting to this kind of -- paul ryan: yes, i'm going to print his speech out and read it on the way home. i take everything he says seriously so number one, i am going to read it, because i really want to hear what he has to say, and two, from my conversations with friends in the cbc, we just decided to put together a working group that i think was released yesterday, was it not? but a working group of bipartisan members shared by john conyers and members of the cdc and some of our members like dave rite kearse that have experience and have them work together to see where common ground can b

house speaker paul ryan met privately on two proposals. the first centers on expanding background checks. the second includes bans on gun steels people on the no-fly list. this after a dramatic sit-in last month. the house will vote on a larger anti-terrorism package, democrats are calling for stricter measures like background checks to be put in place. whether democrats will do another sittin remains to be seen. >>> according to fbi data, attempts to buy guns have spiked since the orlando shooting last month. for news.com. >>> severe weather on tuesday. one tornado touched down on farmland in minnesota. 80 miles per hour wind gusts and pounding rain caused over 100,000 power outages. the downpour was so heavy, storm s sewers were overwhelmed. a geyser, flooding the streets. >> old faithful in your backyard. these thunderstorms affected minneapolis. they're still on the way. a dangerous morning across northern illinois. chicago area hit hard by the thunderstorms. they started near minneapolis. we had another batch that went right across ar
