mr. trump: you are right. last quarter, it was just announced our gross domestic product, a sign of strength, right? not for us. it was below zero. whoever heard of this? it is never below zero. our labor participation rate was the worst since 1978. think of it -- gdp below zero. horrible labor participation rate. and our real unemployment is anywhere between 18% and 20%. do not believe the 5.6%. that is why a lot of people cannot get jobs. they cannot get jobs because there aren't any. china has our jobs and mexico has our jobs. they all have the jobs. but, the real number, the real number is anywhere from 18% to 19% and maybe even 21% and nobody talks about it because it is a statistic that is full of nonsense. [applause] mr. trump: our enemies are getting stronger and stronger by the day. and we as a country are getting weaker. even our nuclear arsenal does not work. it came out recently, they have equipment that is 30 years old and don't even know if it works. i thought it was horrible when it was broadcas

mr. trump: i know. mr. luntz: question for microphone two. >> you talked about your faith how yourand i wonder faith and family has influenced -- have influenced how you raise your children. mr. trump: i have five wonderful children. i get questions similar to that because my children have done well. eric -- my three oldest children have done well. they have gone into business and they are solid. they have not been in trouble. more than any other question i get from people is -- how did you raise your kids? one of them was through the church, very important. where i grewrch up, a first presbyterian church in jamaica queens and that is where i grew up and that is where i went to church. i did all of the things that a lot of folks in this room did. it was an important element. church was. the other important element was that from the time they are two years old, no drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. said -- daddy,e you are driving me crazy. she did not even know what drugs were. i see so many children get unde

that's something upsetting to mr. trump. >> is he going to reconsider some of his style? the speech we just heard in south carolina that was very very tough. >> well it may be tough but it was received very well by the audience. i heard many standing ovations and there was a lot of applause and laughter. mr. trump delivered as you recently stated a great performance and it should be acknowledged. one of the things that's driving mr. trump to continue speaking negatively about these individuals is that they want to come after him and it only makes sense, he's the front-runner. >> he certainly is the front-runner right now if you believe this latest abc news/"washington post" poll. by double digits. although you notice and a lot of poller the sisters have pointed out, michael, that the final day of the polls, numbers in the aftermath of his comments involving senator john mccain being a p.o.w. and vietnam in the final days his approval numbers significantly went down you noticed that right? >> see, now you're not being accurate either wolf. the bottom line is i spoke to the

mr. trump: i do not think it would take on the size it has. chuck: trump is surging, closing in on former governor jeb bush. mr. trump: do you know he had five sanctuary cities in florida? chuck: his message, illegal immigrants are a clear and present danger. mr. trump: we have people coming from middle east across the border. chuck: he introduced a man who he said his son was shot dead by an illegal immigrant. >> somebody a legal in this country, on his third gun charge. chuck: and he also share the stage with the sheriff known for being tough on illegal's. his rhetoric has rattled nerves on both sides of the issue. even republicans are keeping him at arms length. >> he also said it in a way that will kill my party. chuck: today, keywords of conciliation, but no sign of compromise as some of trump tries to seal his biggest deal. chuck sievers and, abc news, new york. kellye: trump facing major backlash at home. a second chef has backed out of working at his new restaurant. joining a list of individuals cutting ties because his comments he mad

and what mr. trump engaged in with the second time of lies. he claims that i intended to pump in front of him. this is a lie and this is why it is a lie. when mr. trump fails to explain is that his deposition was not the only deposition that was during that week. the entire week, there were multiple depositions with multiple parties and i was taking all of them. and i was pumping every day. very discreetly. people did not even really know what i was doing. it is, i was in private. i was in a separate conference room. i was in a conference room. nobody was. there never in any of those days did i ever, ever engage in this medical procedure before any deopponent or any attorneys. the second thing i would like to address is the fact that today for the first time, he's accusing me of making it up. on december 5, 2011, less than a month after his terminated deposition, his attorneys sent my law firm a letter essentially confirming the fact that he said, you're disgusting, you're disgusting, and he ran out of there. prematurely which is really the on

>> well no one speaks for mr. trump but mr. trump and he was very clear that he disagreed with the comments that michael cohen made and michael cohen's comments are those of his own. he was upset with the acquisition of a story 30 plus years old that's been widely reported on in the past and felt obligated to say things that he clearly regretted. so mr. trump was clear about this. he did not condone this. he did not approve, did not know about this when this took place. mr. cohen will stay on board with mr. trump. >> there is a question why you want to keep him on board with mr. trump because this is a person he's not affiliated with the campaign you say but he is suggested by the campaign as someone to speak as a surerogate you want someone to speak with a reporter on behalf of him? >> michael cohen is not a campaign employee. he works for the trump organization. he serves as special counsel and advisor to mr. trump in that capacity. >> corey, is that a difference without a distinction? >> it's a very important distins. he did

it is donald trump. thank you for being here, mr. trump. >> how are you? >> good, god. welcome to "red eye." >> first thing's first, are you wearing a sweater? >> yes, and a tie. >> it is snowing in new york or something? >> no, mr. trump it is cold in the studio so sometimes i like to put on a sweater. it is a light summer wool. >> the good news is me being on your show your ratings are going to go through the roof. >> i assume. that's why we got you here. >> you can afford a sports coat or something. >> i will wear a jacket tomorrow. >> good. >> i want to ask you, the folks on the panel are cynical about your chances. can you last in the polls? >> absolutely. i am lasting already. essentially i am first. >> you are tied with jeb bush, but you had unkind words to say about jeb bush, presidential candidate. why? >> listen, the guy is soft on immigration and it is obvious why. he is married to one. >> is your popularity affected by these controversies, mr. trump? >> oh no. it is actually growing. it is getting bigger and bigger and bigger. we were supposed to be in phoen

he's fantastic, the city manager. >> thank you, mr. trump. welcome, everybody, to the city of laredo. you know this is one of the greatest cities on the border and we're a vibrant city and, as mr. trump mentioned, the trade that we have here with mexico this is where the rubber meets the road and all of you can see it right behind us. this is where all of the trade comes through that mexico at united states have in common right here. and not only that this is where it goes to the rest of the world. i'll tell you what we wouldn't be where we are if it wouldn't be for the support that the mayor and members of the city council that are also here with us councilmembers we have very fortunate to have the support that they provide for us in order for the city to be the number one land port in the country. thank you very much. >> why is immigration [ inaudible ] mr. trump that the way to make the border safe is to build a long wall? >> that's a federal issue and we have our comments on that. >> what is your comments? >> we don't think that's necessa

thank you for joining us, mr. trump do you owe john mccain an apology? >> no, not at all. if you look at cheryl at theon's report last night, it was fine. she thought that the press was covering me fairly unfairly and she stated that. i republican her as a reporter. i got a stand ovation, the biggest ovation they had all weekend. it was wonderful to see. nobody was insulted. what happened is, later on, the republican candidates, some of whom are registering 1%, they're extremely upset and they're extremely upset when the nevada numbers came out, too. >> mr. trump, let's go back to this issue of john mccain and you're talking about the cheryl atkinson, you said, he's war hero he was captured, perhaps, he's a war hero. a short bio of john mccain, he was shot down in 1967 on his 23rd bombing mission over north vietnam, he fractured both legs and an arm and nearly drowned when he parachuted into a lake. his shoulder was crushed. he was beaten, tortured and interrogated. the north vietnamese offered him early release for propaganda purposes, he refused until every man was taken

mr. trump: i think i have been so misquoted. when you read my speech -- i got rave reviews and you even said very good things about it. i got rave reviews and five days later, people brought this up. it started with univision which frankly is controlled by the mexican government. i actually think that mexican government is more concerned -- i respect mexico and the people that run it. they are much smarter than our people. that is the problem. i'm angry that our leaders are so inept and our negotiators are so inept. whether it is trade deals with china or dealing with mexico. we have a lot of problems. if you look at my speech, my -- when i announced i was running for the presidency -- people have said it is absolutely -- mexico is sending. if you look at what castro did he sent many people to the united states. they call it the boat lift. they had many people coming into the united -- mark: i have to catch up because we have to go to break. sorry to interrupt you. thank you for joining us. we will be right back. ♪ mark: if io

one of them wrote a letter to mr. trump and said, any time you want, come back and talk to us to military service. oh, you didn't go. i have known john mccain for a very long time. the daily courage that it takes and took, when people are prisoners of war, undergoing the uncertainties of whether they're ever going to come home -- how badly injured he was -- >> just quickly on that, you heard what mr. trump said, i said he was a war hero because he was captured, was he backing off a little bit? or make it worse? >> well, what he said, there's no excuse for it, and you know he can talk about veteran issues, we all care about veteran issues. and i said this goes to all veterans when they hear those sort of things, because you're talking about the dignity of service when you say things like that. there's no way to take away the courage, the daily courage people like john mccain faced in that incarceration. >> thank you for joining us, senator webb. >>> the roundtable weighs in on trump's future. >>> now that developing st

the forms are not for somebody of mr. trump's worth. there are two individuals, trump and mr. rubio that have filed. someone like rick perry needs to file his forms. >> it's real? >> oh it's rail. >> if they screw with him, whatever happens, you feel he could look at that option? >> donald trump is a rich man. he's said he is going to spend a substantial amount of money on this race. if he doesn't spend it as a republican maybe he will as part of the trump party. he's a republican. he wants to run as a republican. he believes he can make this country great again. he believes he's entitled. if the people want him and he continues to do great in the polls, she should be the nominee. >> a charge against him in 2004 he told wolf and others i'm more sympathetic to the democrats than the republicans. republicans are using him. >> nobody has ever changed his mind over what is that? 15 or 20 years? you are not allowed to change your mind because you are donald trump. he's a new york city real es kate developer. that is a democratic state. he donated money, yes, to democrats as well an

how can mr. trump possibly do that? his views may edge liven the base they're not a growth strategy for the gop. yesterday i asked my radio audience if they thought trump's comments were resonating. one caller had an interesting observation? >> i think this is just the chickens of the coming home to roost. trump is becoming a more accurate mirror of the republican base. and i as a moderate republican can get frustrated with that, because i think it's something the republican party has said increasingly over the last few years. they have tried to distance from it. you can't live in a talk radio, facebook bumper sticker type world, and take advantage of that to attack democratic candidates and then complain when a republican candidate for president uses the same strategies and same arguments to attack the other candidates. >> if they don't confront trump, they run the risk of winning a nomination while alienateing independents whom gallop reports now compromise 43% of the country. if they push trump too far, he could run

mr. trump: not at all. [applause] i am so proud of the fact that i got a dialogue started on illegal immigration. [applause] people in the media, they were very rough on me that first week and then many of them have now apologize to me. it turned out i was right. beautiful kate in san francisco was shot by an illegal. mexico kept pushing him back because they didn't want him. now everybody says that trump was right. i took a lot of abuse. i had disloyal people like macy's thing that donald, you are a little controversial, we are going to have to drop you. what does that matter to me? [applause] i never liked them that much because they were made in china so it never mattered that much. [laughter] frank: they obviously appreciated. but referring to people as racists, to john mccain a war hero, 5.5 years as a pow, you call him a dummy. is that appropriate? mr. trump: you have to let me speak. you interrupt all the time. [laughter] i know him too well, that's the problem. i am in phoenix. we have a meeting tha

reality is you know people i think, you know come to mr. trump and want to do business with mr. trump and the companies he's associated with because of his celebrity and because he is known as someone who is in the spotlight, drawn a lot of media attention and talks straight. certainly, i'm sure that drew univision to get involved with miss universe. >> i think it was actually the women we see on screen. >> all that is certainly true. i think what brings ratings and popularity to the pageant is association with mr. trump. i think certainly since, you know the miss universe organization and the pageant is associated with it were not doing too well before mr. trump brought the interest in there. since then the ratings are hitting all time highs. it's doing better than ever before. >> so you are now suing univision, what about nbc, they're business partners. they each own half of miss usa. bc says it is ending that relationship. will you be ending with them as well? we will be taking action against nbc. nbc is in a unique position there is a clear conflict playing out here. nbc is

mr. trump. thank you. >> thank you very much. i appreciate it. >> well, thank you very much for being here. it's been an amazing experience. mexico is booming absolutely booming, and jesus the city manager and pete have done an amazing job right here. but a lot of what is happening here is because of the fact that mexico is doing so well. it's just doing beyond what anybody ever thought. and i don't know if that's good for the united states but it's good for mexico. anybody have any questions? i think i'll win the hispanic vote. i have thousands of mexicans and hispanics. when it comes -- i don't know if you saw the polls bum they did a big poll in nevada, and i'm way ahead, and more importantly as far as i'm concerned i'm way way ahead with the hispanics well into the 30s. and second is 11. so i have a great relationship. over the years thousands and thousands of hixs -- of hispanics that work for me and the relationship is very good. >> mr. trump-some -- >> go ahead. >> how many people killed? >> five people were killed where i

yeah i just want to -- you know like mr. trump was saying. my son was murdered by someone illegally in the country. they were brought here when they were 4 years old and allowed to grow up like a wild animal pretty much. my son was walking home from the mall one day like everybody's kids do. go to the mall on sunday afternoon. we went to a football clinic in pasadena on the way home. he asked could he go. i said yeah. be home by 7:00. around 7:00 i called him. i said, where are you? he said i'm going to be home soon. caught the wrong bus. be there in about another hour. i said i'll get you a car. i called him again hour later. where you at? that's what i always say. where you at? he said i'm right around the corner old man. i'll be there in a couple minutes. and then i heard two gunshots. i mean it was so crisp, like a gun range. you'd know that crispiness tells you how close it is. and i already knew i had a feeling in my chest. i went outside to see, and he was laying in the street dead. and i found out that the guy who did it was released

>> you know mr. trump is not a racist. he's a realist, and most americans are finding that out, and he is the voice for a lot of americans, and what he wants to do is just make america great again so i think we've already discussed this plenty but he is a realist and -- >> does that mean that you agree with what he said? that means you do agree with what he said? >> no i'm not saying that at all. i'm a realist, just like mr. trump is and i think he's already covered this pretty clear. >> tana goertz lisa boothe thank you very much. >> thank you. >> and we want to get back to that historic event involving space. nasa has now revealed the very first images of pluto. this was a mission nine years in the making and here's what they showed just moments ago. >> this is an area that covers quite a variety of terrains but this is really one of the first things that caught our attention this. area as you can see from the scale bar is about 150 miles across. we've seen features as small as half a mile here. you can see the apl campu

it's very controversial remarks from mr. trump. i think mr. trump is appealing to a certain faction of the it's going to be interesting to see whether or not he can sustain his lead in the polls. clearly he elevated the issue of immigration policy reform in this republican primary season with controversial and devicive rhetoric. earlier this week, ted cruz met with mr. trump. it will be interesting if he can sustain. he's making his views known. we'll see a where it goes. >> he's becoming a polarizing figure yet keeps gaining in the polls. could that be the key to winning in the crowded field? >> i think that's the interesting thing of mr. trump. as a result of his brashness if you will he's really outspoken -- he's been louder than the other candidates. it's been harder for lesser known can candidates to break through and get more ahead because of that brashness and rhetoric. it's presented opportunity for former florida governor jeb be bush to contrast his immigration policy with the more conservative wing of the republican party. so you rea

mr. trump is still losing business. the latest to jump ship include the pga which pulled its grand slam of golf exhibition from mr. trump's golf club in l.a. films van hughesen. they say they are in the process of winding down business with mr. trump. today star chef who was slated to open the flagship restaurant and mr. trump's new washington, d.c. hotel. he pulled out. jose andres said he was out of that business deal. he also put out this quite eloquent statement explaining why he felt like he could no longer stay in this business relationship. he said donald trump's recent comments make it impossible for me to move forward in the upcoming restaurant in d.c. more than half of my team is hispanic, as is many of our guests and as a proud spanish immigrant, i believe every human being deserves respect regardless of immigration status. and that eloquent and fairly moving statement from this famous chef, from jose andres, highlights one of the unexpected ways the presence of donald trump as a presidential candidate is giv

was mr. trump m.a.c. australian machiavellian or ill informed when talking about mccain's hero status? if something else, what is it? pat buchanan. pat: i think trump was badly served here. he manufacture said he was not a here -- he never said he was not a hero. he said he got captured. four times he said he was a hero and the press jumped on him and said he has to get you o of the race and other republicans have to get out of the race and a figure in disgrace and defied them and all week long gotten big he crowds than anyone. the country knows what is being done here which is that the political establishment is appalled and frightened by trump and they want to drive him out of the race, un. and the vast or not the majority but a big plurality or a large number of americans want to see him in the race and he is doing well. eleanor: about he wants to play with big boys and girls he should be able to answer criticism and to say the press is piling on to him, the press is misinterpreting him is nonsense. he

and anybody that wants to come, mr. trump will be here, at mr. trump's request. i said, i don't know, who are these people? who are they? and they said no, you called and you asked. and they said, that is right. i said, i want a letter of apology and they gave it to me. that means they are honorable. semi honorable. pretty good right. it is semi honorable. better than most politicians, let's face it. but it is none honor to be here. and i have so many friends in my audience. i know this is a conservative group, a libertarian group and you don't know what the hell you are talking to in this group. and said, good, you have a lot of libertarians. good. i like rand paul. i do like him. i do. i got to know him a little bit over the last year and he is a good paul. and we actually played a round of golf and he is really a very nice guy and i thought i would say that. and i can tell you, so many of us and -- i mean i know half of the people and so many of us believe in the same thing. yesterday i had an event that was amazing, and beautiful, and sad and a lot of you wat

now mr. perry wants people to understand that donald trump is hughie long. is he mr. smith goes to washington? a lot of americans think he is mr. smith that he is a billionaire with a heart that is not afraid to tell the truth that he is rich enough not to get hurt by the folks in washington. he basically says listen, i've bought and sold these people left and right. when i wanted them to come to my wedding, they come to my wedding. he is exposing the corruption of our system. and they find that really, really distasteful. >> especially whens he is winning. >> well said. >> it's one thing to go after a mr. trump, because he has decided to go the arena. the establishment, what is so inexplicable is they're attacking the voters. they're attacking the base. that has to be rethought. regardless of what you think of mr. trump, this is an opportunity, and they're completely blowing it. >> look, i would say the republican governors, they have been very impressive to me in a lot of different states. >> sure. >> i think it's the republicans in washington. they have been weak,

and by the remarks of mr. trump. how his fellow republican candidates react to trump's more insaid ware comments will ia. in 2016 the republican candidate cannot win without increasing the share of the nonwhite vote received by both mitt romney and john mccain in the most recent presidential elections. how can mr. trump possibly do that? his views may enliven the base but not a growth strategy for the gop. yesterday i asked callers if these were their thoughts. >> trump is becoming a more accurate mirror of the republican base. and i as a moderate republican can get frus rated with that because i think that it's something that the republican party has fed. you can't it has fed increasingly over the last few years, they have tried to benefit from it. you can't live in talk radio, facebook bumper sticker type world and take advantage of that to attack democratic candidates and then complain when a republican candidate for president uses the same strategies and the same arguments and the same issues to attack other repu

so now a different trump spokesman says the candidate disagrees and a source says "nobody but mr. trump speaks for donald trump anyway." all right, my colleague, athena jones, is following all of this for us in washington. athena late this morning. we heard again from cohen again, what's he saying this time? >> he did, randi, this is getting attention because trump is leading the republican pack, the republican race for the nomination so anything he says is going to get attention. after the anger that was sparked by michael cohen's comments cohen released this statement. "rarely am i surprised by the press but the gall of this particular reporter to make such a reprehensible and false allegation against mr. trump stunned me. in my moment of shock and anger, i made an inarticulate comment which i do not believe and which i apologize for entirely. so you can see there cohen is apologizing far erroneous remark able rape. but he's still sticking it to the daily beast reporter tim mack. this is a reporter he threatened to so-to-sue, to sue him, the daily beast and ruin his life. here i

today mr. trump expanded significantly on that idea. he's now openly threatening to run as a third party candidate unless the republican party starts being nicer to him. this is from the hill newspaper today. quote, pressed on whether he would run as a third party candidate if he fails to clinch the gop nomination he said, quote, i'll have to see how i'm treat bid the republicans. absolutely if they're not fair that would be a factor. he told the hill quote, the rnc has not been supportive. so that threat that he might run as a third party candidate has caused a lot of things to happen today. but one of the things it caused to happen is that it has led to an eruption of terribly wrong common wisdom and bad history. in terms of talking about the recent political experience we have as a country with this subject. the ross perot 1992 election thing, this is one of those stories where it didn't happen all that long ago. the truth about it the facts about it are totally knowable and out in the open but we have invented a giant national lie t

mr. trump: sadly, the american dream is dead. >> bring it back!. mr. trump: but if i get elected president, i will bring it. bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. and we will make america great again. thank you. thank you very much.

[inaudible] >> that's a federal issue, and we have our comments on that. >> what is your comment? >> we don't think that's necessary at this time. i think there's other ways that we can work together wit

we're glad to have mr. trump. it has provided us an opportunity to present to mr. trump and his entourage what laredo is all about. we do -- laredo does over 40% of the mexican trade. laredo is known for obviously transportation. you can see the big trucks behind us and logistics. nafta has been very good to us. we're excited about that. we also have oil and gas production in our county and also provides a revenue to us. and mr. trump has brought up certain issues. the immigration issue in particular. we, at least i feel personally that immigration reform is needed. we need protection in the border area. we need to secure the border. but we also need other elements. you know obviously, the immigration act or bill. with that in mind, it's a pleasure to have mr. trump the excitement that he brings is also very on the plus side for our city and we appreciate all of the attention. but we know it comes primarily through this gentleman here. >> thank you. well, thank you very much for being here. it's been an amazing experience. mexico is booming absolutely booming and t

donald trump on the border and more of my conversation with him. mr. trump as you know has made illegal immigration the centerpiece of his campaign to. day he was in laredo texas trying to do just that. drawing fire almost from the start how he has been calling attention to the problem and drawn praise as well. he also has drawn calls for specifics on allegations he is making including this one earlier this month. >> we bring them back and they push them out. mexico pushes back people across the border that are criminals, that are drug dealers. >> he said he was talking about the mexican government himself. the country of mexico is pushing people in. i asked him about it again yesterday. >> you keep saying mexico is sending these people across. >> mexico is sending. you said it properly. you said it properly. thank you. >> but you have offered no proof. that's what people say. well reporters in laredo tried to pin him down on that as well as specific plans for solving the problem. he also made claims about the trip itself saying the local border patrol

mr. trump spoke about iran. he said that once weep destable i that area iran was going to take over. >> your candidate jeb bush has been invited on cnn i believe every single day and has yet to actually appear. donald trump, whether you agree with what he is saying or not, he he is appearingen front of the media. i talked to him twice. jake tapper talked to him twice. and in, you know wide ranging interviews that have gone for more than 30 minutes. there is not a lot of candidates who do that. jeb bush is not the he is not showing up on cnn. >> he hasn't shown up on cnn. i'm sure at some point he is going to show up on cnn. if nothing else at the cnn debate in september. he gave a wide ranging interview today to telemundo in perfect spanish. he has given a number of interviews. and nobody has been more accessible to the press, had press, answered questions. >> i would disagree with that. nobody has been more accessible to the media than donald trump. the reason why, anna everybody is interested in mr. trump. the

>> look, mr. trump has very clear. lindsey graham and john mccain are in favor of amnesty for illegal aliens saliens. we want to have legal citizenship. the fact that this whole thing started when john mccain called 15,000 hard working americans crazies in arizona -- >> he said that affectionately. >> it's not. every time senator mccain says something they give him a pass whether they are crazies, he gets a pass. he is a hard these are hard working americans who want something better. there was no media outcry no push back from senator mccain saying where is your apology. why don't we ask where his apology is? >> it's one thing to say you are wrong and it's another thing to question something folks say is not in question is his military service. that gets me to where we are in the polls right now. this is a big day for your campaign. donald trump now topping the latest poll 24%. it would have been higher had this comment not happened. the pollsters say he took a hit following this comment. does that worry you? >> i don

it broadcasts or used to broadcast reality shows that involved mr. trump. that relationship has been severed by nbc. today the department store macy's the has. that it too has severed its relationship. he apparently had a clothing line through that store but that is now over. and then only the, news broke that the entire city of new york where donald trump lives and runs his businesses and operates numerous high profile properties, all which of have his name on them. the city of new york as of tonight said it is reviewing mr. trump's contracts with the city. a statement released from mayor bill de blasio says this. donald trump's remarks were disgusting and offensive ask this hateful language has no place in our city. trump's comments do not make up our values. our mexican brothers and sisters make up an essential part of this city's vibrant and diverse community and we will continue to celebrate and support new yorkers of every back ground. new york city reviewing trump contracts. with the city tonight. right now, donald trump of all people is doing great

mr. trump took that land he owned, which he wanted to build on. he wanted to build on it and he couldn't. he paid $3 million for the land. he took that land and gave it to the state of new york as a gift. they had a big ceremony with donald trump and george pataki to announce this donation. when they asked mr. trump how much the land was worth, he said at the time quote, people have told me about $100 million. wait a second. he bought it for $3 million. he did nothing with it. he then proclaimed it to be worth more than 30 times that amount. $100 million and then he gave it away. presumably for the tax break. of course the higher the value of the thing you are giving away, the bigger the tax break you get. nice. but, of course there was more in this for donald trump than a classy huge and great tax break. he also got something else. right after he made that donation, the new york parks department under george pataki put up big signs on the highway, where thousands and thousands and thousands of people have now driven past these signs every day for

this is just an example of exactly what mr. trump is talking about. the gentleman was thrown out of the united states five times and is sent back in because mexico doesn't want to deal with him. he's a bad guy. he's a criminal. they don't want to deal with him, so they send him across the border right into the united states. >> that story is a tragic one. we can absolutely agree on that. want to hear more when we can to talk about that but there was another meeting. he talked to the steinles but he had a meeting yesterday with ted cruz. >> that he did. >> going into the meeting, before the meeting he said he really didn't know what the meeting was before. what happened behind closed doors? >> it's a private conversation between two individuals who also happen to be running for the presidency of the united states of america. it was a very nice conversation. they've spoken several times before this over the past year. >> what was the topic? >> i'd rather not discuss it. it was a private -- >> who asked for it? >> ted cruz. >> ted cruz asked for the meet

thanks for joining us, mr. trump. >> good morning. >> do you owe john mccain an apology? >> no, not at all. actually, if you look at cheryl atkinson's report last night, it was absolutely fair. she thought that the press was covering me very, very unfairly and she stated that strongly and i respect her as a reporter. very importantly, i got a standing ovation, the biggest ovation they had all weekend, by far. when i left the room it was a total standing ovation. it was wonderful to see. nobody was insulted. what happened is, later on, the republican candidates, some of whom are registering 1%, and zero, and they're extremely upset i'm leading the polls, and they're extremely upset when the nevada numbers came out, too. they're threw the roof. >> mr. trump, let's go back to this issue of john mccain and you're talking about the cheryl atkinson piece, you said, he's a war hero because he was captured. you said, perhaps he was a war hero. i want to read you a short bio of john mccain, he was shot down in 1967 on his 23rd bombing mission over north vietnam, he fractured both

it starts about a decade ago when donald trump made a big and very public donation mr. trump bought several hundred acres of land in new york state in west chester county in the 1990s. now, the funny thing about that part of new york state is that it is super close to new york city even though it doesn't really feel like it. from basically anywhere in west chester county you can drive back and forth to work in manhattan or you can take the train in and back every day, you are in the immediate orbit of the biggest city in the country, but this is what it looks like. you never know it. you're also in the land of bears and deer and coyotes and state parks. mike for instance the donald j. trump state park. this all happened about ten years ago. the governor of new york was george pataki at the time. governor pataki is now more or less running for president though most would never notice unlike mr. trump, george pataki is in the bottom tier of the republican candidates. but back in 2006 he was governor of new york and part of george pataki's politician brand, one of the cent

trump. >> president obama lashes out at donald trump. mr. trump is here tonight to respond. >>> president obama calls out senator ted cruz and others. >> we've had a sitting senator suggest that i'm the leading state sponsor of terrorism. >> the senator from the great state of texas will respond in a "hannity" exclusive. >>> the tapes have been edited. >> the president of planned parenthood attacks the group that made the videos allegedly exposing her organization. mark steyn is here with reaction. chris christie and ann coulter join us in studio. >>> welcome to "hannity"." president obama ripped the republican field and called out donald trump. watch this. >> when you look at what's happened with mr. trump, when he's made some of the remarks that for example, challenged the heroism of mr. mccain. the republican party is shocked. and yet that arises out of a culture where, you know those kinds of outrageous attacks have become far too commonplace. the point is we're creating a culture that is not conducive to good policy or good politics. th

mr. trump was no different. as he has come forward, as we've got to see the real donald trump, i've got some real problems with that. i think that what he is saying and what he is doing is not necessarily moving the cause of conservatism forward. i respect the men and women who are coming to donald trump's events. i mean these are americans that pair about the same things that i care about but there's only one individual that's going to be standing on that stage that's had the executive experience of dealing with this. >> we're going to take a quick break. new details about the shooter behind the massacre at the movie theater in louisiana. did he target his victims because they were women? we'll talk about that issue and more with governor rick perry. stay with us. we'll be right back. everywhere you look, it strategy is now business strategy.? and a partnership with hp can help you accelerate down a path created by people, technology and ideas. to move your company from what it is now... to what it needs to bec

trump's massive wealth. and it proudly proclaims in all capital letter that is mr. trump's net worth is in excess of $10 billion. are his numbers real? "forbes" recently did the math and said his net worth was $4 billion. that's a pretty big discrepancy. here is someone who has covered donald trump for the last 30 years and recently wrote this question 20 questions for donald trump. professor david cay johnston. thanks for being here. so he's making money. he's already made a billion dollars in the time since he announced his candidacy. how credible is that? >> well, with nine major companies, nbc, univision and others have cut you loose, hard to believe that increased your net worth. and donald trump's statement didn't show liabilities. donald in the past has had periods where he owed more than his assets. so we don't know what his net worth is. >> i think members of the public don't comprehend this. i was in chicago two weeks ago. in the course of driving through downtown chicago, there's this enormous building em blazened with trump across it. i'm wondering if so
