they're still on track to have this endorsement of paul ryan even though the ryan campaign wasn't looking for it, the republican national campaign wasn't looking for it, but i tell you, everybody is onboard. look at the e-mail or listen to the e-mail i got from paul nealon, who is paul ryan's challenger for the seat there in the house, who put out a release a little while ago. this is a guy, by the way, who supports donald trump, was very nice to donald trump. and which is why trump also was saying he didn't necessarily want to endorse ryan at the beginning. he says, quote, giving his stature at our party's nominee, mr. trump's decision to support the republican speaker is appropriate and is a display of true leadership. but listen to what he goes on to say, quote, mr. trump's early refusal to endorse ryan sent a signal to wisconsin voters ryan is not his preferred candidate in the race. politics still at play even though he's giving his blessing to donald trump endorsing ryan. >> before i bring a panel in, give us a sense of the size of the room, the crowd. how nmany people? >> typical f

ryan's opponent. trump has not endorsed house speaker ryan. trump is so unpredictable, he seems to love surprising, maybe even shocking the voters and the media. john roberts is live at the rally. >> you're right, greta. donald trump does like to shake it up. the plan that existed at noon, often doesn't exist by the time 7:00 rolls around . i checked with the campaign and told everything is on track for donald trump to throw his endorsement behind paul ryan in his republican primary next week. how this all came together was a matter of what donald trump did earlier this week. the ryan campaign, the republican national committee, had never sought out donald trump's endorsement of the house speaker. after he gave that interview in which he said i'm just not there yet when it comes to supporting house speaker ryan, the rnc thought he has to do something about it. because he is now made a non-issue an issue. so people were coming to donald trump's campaign saying you've got to do something to fix this. it looks like he's going to try to fix it ton

in ryan's state, trump didn't do that well. that was a big who is that guy that ran against him? ted cruz. ted cruz was big there. it is helping ryan as well. he came out and said we didn't ask for his endorsement. everybody is happy. >> that's what happens in trump land. you know what my take away from your little speech is? >> i do love donald like a son. >> just because trump speaks simply it is not that it is simple. palm are saying if you use big words you must be smarter than everyone else, but mark twain wrote they seventh grade level and trump speaks clearly and thoughtfully. what trump is doing is laying down a negotiation strategy. he said if you want to play hard with me, great. i'll play hard with you. we are not used to that direct confrontational tone of voice and that's what we need in the next president of the united states. >> we better get used to it. moving on, trump is not the only candidate whose allies are concerned. aides to hillary clinton are concerned about her stubbornness. there are a number of suppo

so then what we're left with is ryan lochte telling a story about a robbery when the reality is ryan lochte and his friends were there breaking property, damaging and destroying property at the gas station and then leaving without paying. and the cops are saying we just -- or the security is saying we used force not to get money out of him but to keep them there until the cops came. now, did they use force to rob them? apparently the cops don't think so. apparently the cops think they were just being held and lochte is making all this stuff up. that, i think, is going to form the basis of this. >> is there any -- how much money was actually paid from lochte and his colleagues to the gas station or to the management? was it greatly in excess of what the damage was, the vandalism? >> well, they settled for a certain amount, and then ryan threw in $100 tip for their trouble. so they seemed to agree on what the amount was. and then ryan threw another 100 in. that, to me, sounds like not somebody who gets robbed. you don't generally give a robber a tip, at least in my world. and, you know

the less he talks about ryan the better. >> the ryan thing is different. i think because ryan is so far ahead in his district. he's won that district up every term since i don't know. 1994 or something. it's been a long time. so he always wins that district. that's his. he would never lose it. but senators ayotte and mccain and a few others are actually in a lot of trouble in their district. in their state. so new hampshire being one of them where i thought that donald trump would actually perform a lot better there. but the recent polls are that he's down by nine or 11 points. guess who else is down by nine or 11 points? kelly ayotte. if you really care about the future of conservatism and you want to make sure you care about the supreme court you have to have republican majority in the senate. and if all of these senators are going to go down as the ticket continues to go down, then you're not going to have any of that. maybe ryan doesn't matter, but not supporting the other candidates is a problem. >> can we talk about this a little? i know they want to

john happy to, thank you. >>> donald trump does endorse paul ryan tonight, in ryan's home state of wisconsin, the house speaker is not going to be there to hear it. he is not the only top wisconsin republican deciding to skip the trump event. we'll look at the divide between the g.o.p. and talk "fox news sunday" anchor chris wallace coming up on fox news deck. guion beret. >> more of today's headlines. afghan officials say taliban fighters attacked minibus full of foreigners and injured five passengers. it happened in western afghanistan. a government official says the attacker shot at the minibus carrying 11 tourist from the united states, germany and england help says afghan forces rescued them and none were seriously hurt. >>> coast guard say they saved a seven-year-old man in florida from a burning sailboat this morning. flames engulfed the boat and it sank. fire officials say propane tanks exploded and the fire eventually pred to a second boat. and a tornado touched down in new orleans last night. some folks caught the funnel cloud on video as it passed of the city. it destroyed three b

at some point we'll come through with paul ryan. he wants to give him a taste of his own medicine because don't forget, paul ryan did the exact same thing to him. >> i'm sure it was in part an effort to belittle paul ryan and make this seem worse. but also it served an important purpose for trump. they put this story out. remember, "the washington post," which trump forbids to cover his campaign rallies as a news outlet, he invited them in at the beginning of the week to make sure it was clear that he did not endorse ryan and that he was against mccain. so he put this story out there. it is a counterweight to the problems with the khan family. in one sense, it's been a very bad week for donald trump. but in another sense, he had this story as a counternarrative, and at the end, paul ryan was going to win anyway. and now donald trump can claim some of the credit for that. >> well, there you go. and i'm sure we'll hear from him on that front when paul ryan does win. from a media perspective, what's your thought on the coverage of this

at some point we'll come through with paul ryan. he wants to give him a taste of his own medicine because don't forget, paul ryan did the exact same thing to him. >> i'm sure it was in part an effort to belittle paul ryan and make this seem worse. but also it served an important purpose for trump. they put this story out. remember, "the washington post," which trump forbids to cover his campaign rallies as a news outlet, he invited them in at the beginning of the week to make sure it was clear that he did not endorse ryan and that he was against mccain. so he put this story out there. it is a counterweight to the problems with the khan family. in one sense, it's been a very bad week for donald trump. but in another sense, he had this story as a counternarrative, and at the end, paul ryan was going to win anyway. and now donald trump can claim some of the credit for that. >> well, there you go. and i'm sure we'll hear from him on that front when paul ryan does win. from a media perspective, what's your thought on the coverage of this

he does not endorse paul ryan's open borders, sending our jobs overseas with tpp. >> reporter: now, ryan for his part says he reserves the right to withdrawal his endorsement of anyone, including the republican nominee. >> so, how's it looking for ryan? >> reporter: well, it's looking pretty good for paul ryan, actually, if you look at all of the stats and the way they're piling up. among wisconsin conservatives, particularly those people who supported scott walker and kept him from being recalled, paul ryan is terribly popular. he's been on the air quite a bit because he outraised his opponent to the tune of 17 to 1 in terms of dollars. nehlen's people got a shot in the arm because of all of this attention generated by trump. got to keep in mind, trump couldn't put himself over the top here in wisconsin. he lost to ted cruz in the southern part of the state, where the 1st congressional district is located. he lost by 18 points. shep. >>> hillary clinton urging lawmakers to take action against zika as health officials say more than a dozen people in a miami neighborhood got the virus, we

your thoughts. >> i like speaker ryan. i like him a lot. i met him before. i think he is smart guy and good politician. donald trump is not politician at all. he will say things not in lockstep. we're used to sitting home all republicans say this, all democrats say this. rare to see party infighting. i don't mind it as viewer, watching as voter, i do believe in the end speaker ryan and mcconnell and everybody, trump, will come together. harris: one of the things we're hearing this week consistently, among supporters, they don't believe any of this is real. here is paul manifort from the trump campaign. watch that. >> mr. trump is on outsider. he hasn't been a the past political system. his relationships with the leadership of the party are not as deep and long traditionally would be with republican nominee. that is not to say he doesn't have a good relations. we're working very strongly with reince priebus and rnc and with the republican leadership in the house and senate. i think you will see coming together of both paul ryan, mitch mcconnell and donald tru

so much. >> are you going to vote for ryan and why? >> absolutely. >> i just know the guy personally. i know he did a lot of contract bidding for us up there. just a great guy all around. >> who did you vote for for the help rif to congress -- representative to congress here and why? >> paul ryan. is he a family man. i believe what is he doing. i think he will keep this united states in great shape. >> he comes where i work at, talks to me all the time. very friendly. and i love his attitude. >> yeah. did you ever think the race was going to be too tight here with him and nalin? >> no. >> i voted for paul ryan. i think he is an honorable gentleman. he has represented wisconsin for many, many years and done a fine job. i think we have got to keep him in there as speaker of the house, also. >> and paul hasn't necessarily had a real challenger since the first time he ran. that didn't stop paul nehlen with volunteers in the streets with signs as we drove here. we will take tout wisconsin state fair where it was quite a show today. >> griff

ryan? >> i agree. i think there is more to be seen whether he cannot only continue this but whether voters are willing to give him a second look. whether these numbers pertaining to his temperament. pertaining to his likability and other items, whether those are baked in or whether there is time to change. there are only 80 days to go. and this kind of shakeup of this magnitude is significant. but i agree if he can stay on message, he seems to have found a hybrid of sorts in terms of this new campaign team. >> it seems like i was speaking earlier, jason, meaning, you know, just having conversation on television with eric trump and they seem very optimistic and feel very focused and happy. they said they were happy to have paul manafort do what did he for them in terms of primaries and dels. they have kelly ann. they feel very comfortable working with her and taking it to that next level, you know, in the final stretch. and what do you think about how the trump's demeanor, his relative ease with giving

the anti-ryan contingent thought they'd come closer, did they not in, trying to take paul ryan's seat away from him? >> they were particularly excited when you saw donald trump first refuse to give an endorsement and give an endorsement. it drew a lot of attention out here and money out here, we saw nehlan supporters working aggressively today. and saying they're getting ready to pull off this upset that may have been a major upset, if you will. they were excited and working hard and they were disappointed quickly, as soon as numbers came out it was obvious who is going to win. >> and lastly, it's important to note that we're talking about a lot of work left to be done for paul ryan as he tries to fight for his seat in the fall. he's trying to make sure the house keeps it's 59-seat majority. the g.o.p. majority there, paul ryan, as you've been covering this as a lot on his campaign. correct, mike? >> that is correct. and it's in this first order of business here was securing this vote, locally, as he went through this process, we watched him keep a heavy hand on control and keep it lo

ryan may have told a little fib. he may have been telling a tall tale, but i don't believe what the authorities are saying. >> we thought he was dumb the entire time, but he got on a plane and was able to get out of there. >> he did. he was gone, right? >> yeah. >> some people are criticizing him, brendan, because he left the other guys to take the wrap, right? >> yeah. >> but then they snitched on him. >> right, but what can you do when you look like flea from the red-hot chili peppers. >> it is a blue tinge. >> a blue-tinged flea. the problem was the tall tale he told being robbed with a gun to the head. but there was gun play involved. >> in rio they say hello by pulling a gun. it is just a hi. >> i didn't see any evidence from the footage. this is obviously -- you are looking at me like this is not that important of a story. >> you are making it up. it's in your head. >> a couple of organizations covered this today. >> i noticed. i will have to consult my henry kissinger history of international relations. it is

ryan's opponent is a big fan of what i'm saying. big fan. that, you may remember, mirrors what ryan said about trump when asked, at first, if he was endorsing trump. >> now you have a presumptive nominee, donald trump. will you support him? >> well, to be perfectly candid with you, jake, i'm just not ready to do that at this point. i'm not there right now. >> okay. so, he used those words. then here is donald trump on john mccain. i've never been there with john mccain because i've always felt that he should have done a much better job for the vets. he has not done a good job for the vets. i've always had a difficult time with john for that reason. our vets are not being treated properly. they're not being treated fairly. on kelly ayotte, i don't know kelly ayotte. she has given me zero support yet i'm leading her in the polls. we need fighters in this country. we don't need weak people. we have enough of them. are these the people that should be representing us? okay. you tell me. long introto our panel. mercedes sclap and syndicated column

trump has asked you endorse paul ryan and trump uses ryan's exactwords. i'm not quite there yet . this is absolutely pure political payback from donald trump to paul ryan. question is, he is doing this in the middle of the general election. what does it do to his prospects with independent voters? jon: here's exactly what trump said to the washington post. he said i like paul but these are horrible times for our country. we need very strong leadership. we need very, very strong leadership and i'm not quite there yet. i'm not quite there yet. how do you take it? >> what byron is saying, this is payback to paul ryan for earlier comments. it's also that trump, he's not capable of letting bygones bebygones. moving past some of the past slights from both john mccain and paul ryan . that's what i think is driving reince priebus crazy. he wants party unity. the republican convention was all about trying to get everybody on the same page, let's move forward and this takes the party back a little bit. it sort of reminds everybody about the deep divisions that still exist within the party a

he's now in with ryan, with mccain, with ayotte. and, doug, i think he actually endorsed you, but we just didn't have time to play the tape. >> i would welcome it. you know, donald trump did what he had to do, governor, at a time when his poll numbers are sinking. he is behind by four points in georgia, behind in three other swing states substantially. the national polls have been sinking. he made the right decision. the question is why this took so long and how many more flip-flops there will be. >> all right. kelly, last week my in box was getting filled up with every day saying, what's trump doing? why is he not on the attack to hillary? he's off on these other tangents. and tonight after that speech, as people were watching, those same people were blowing out my inbox saying, this is the donald trump we want to see. and they're all happy. so was this a turning point for the trump campaign moving forward? >> yes, governor, i believe it was. i actually think you'll look back at today as a really great day for trump/pence, and a te

donald trump is expected to end his holdout over endorsing paul ryan. he's set to hold a rally tonight in the speaker's home state of wisconsin. but right now we're waiting for the start of a rally in iowa. you can see them right there, part of republican ticket's swing through the midwest. iowa a major battleground for donald trump and hillary clinton. they were neck and neck before the conventions but now mrs. clinton holds a national lead in the polls while the trump campaign tries to pivot away from controversies. peter doocy has more. hi, peter. >> reporter: hi, heather. mike pence has not been to iowa yet as trump's running mate. since part of the reason for put him on the ticket was to make sure that evangelicals remained excited about the republican ticket in the fall, this could be a big test for him. let's see how full they can get this room. then later this evening in wisconsin, our colleague john roberts is reporting that donald trump has gone from just a few days ago saying he wasn't quite there yet for an endorsement of paul ryan to being

makes a statement he challenges paul ryan to arm wrestling match. he attracts the kind of people who really are antiestablishment, wouldn't have been part of the machine anyway. and therefore, you have got a lot of the people who wouldn't have been necessarily in trump's -- or i should say in paul ryan's corner because is he viewed to be very much part of the machine particularly here in wisconsin. >> all right. tobin, we will leave it right there. polls close in about 36 and a half minutes or so, mike. thank you very much. plenty more ahead as the factor moves along this evening. more establishment republicans refusing to support donald trump but does it even matter? dr. ben carson is here to analyze. plus, the father of the orlando terrorist who killed 49 people popped up behind hillary clinton at a florida rally. what on earth is going on? we hope you stay tuned to those reports. constipated? trust number one doctor recommended dulcolax use dulcolax tablets for gentle overnight relief suppositories for relief in minutes and stool softeners for co

ryan's opponent is a big fan of what i'm saying. big fan. that, you may remember, mirrors what ryan said about trump when asked, at first, if he was endorsing trump. >> now you have a presumptive nominee, donald trump. will you support him? >> well, to be perfectly candid with you, jake, i'm just not ready to do that at this point. i'm not there right now. >> okay. so, he used those words. then here is donald trump on john mccain. i've never been there with john mccain because i've always felt that he should have done a much better job for the vets. he has not done a good job for the vets. i've always had a difficult time with john for that reason. our vets are not being treated properly. they're not being treated fairly. on kelly ayotte, i don't know kelly ayotte. she has given me zero support yet i'm leading her in the polls. we need fighters in this country. we don't need weak people. we have enough of them. are these the people that should be representing us? okay. you tell me. long introto our panel. mercedes sclap and syndicated column

what was said about him is what paul ryan said. he's really showing that he's the leader of this new gop. it's not the same paul ryan is not there, he's sort of flexing his muscles and showing everyone how it's going to be going-forward. i think that's a little hard for some people. i don't think it was a weakness on his part. >> justin, when you see that this discord that's been going on who's backing who. politics is a team support. you think trump will be able to embrace the idea long enough to make it to november? >> i think he will. >> i think again those endorsements that he made especially after some of the things he said about john mccain and paul ryan to me shows that he realizes that winning an election and politics is the art of addition and not subtraction. i think he's more focused than he's ever been on winning the general election. he realizes he needs a unified party, and if that means he has to endorse some people, and he said not nice things about in the past. he was willing to do it. i'm going to be watching goin

how speaker paul ryan may be changing his mind. here is what he said today. >> none of these things are every blank chex. that goes with any situation in any kind of rate. right now i just -- he won the delegates fair and square. we just came out of that convention, and yeah he's had a pretty strange run since the convention. you would think we ought to be focusing on hillary clinton, on all of her deficiencies. >> but in an odd twist, donald trump seems to be warming up to speaker ryan. >> paul ryan is a good guy, actually -- no, he's a good guy. so mike calls me and he said -- yesterday, and he said, would you mind if i endorsed? if you like him, yes, go ahead and do it 100%, and he endorsed him. >> quarters on the record" political panel here. they can keep switching beds, too. >> it's hard to overstate how big a moment it would be if paul ryan did rescind his endorsement. it will be a big moment. i don't know that it's going to happen. paul ryan is still sort of a party soldier, but it indicates where we are that we're even tal

ryan's opponent. trump has not endorsed house speaker ryan. trump is so unpredictable, he seems to love surprising, maybe even shocking the voters and the media. john roberts is live at the rally. >> you're right, greta. donald trump does like to shake it up. the plan that existed at noon, of

nothing. >> well, dan, i mean ryan basically has endorsed him, but ryan has said his endorsement doesn't necessarily mean he can't take issue with trump from time to time on subjects and that's what he did with his criticism of the khans, for example. i mean it's not -- endorsement doesn't mean a vow of silence. >> right. >> so why -- but here's the thing. why does trump just not ignore that and move on? >> well, he's marching to his own drummer, and everyone in politics has to march to their own drummer, paul. and these are politicians running for re-election all across the united states. the rule of thumb, as we all know, is that at the top of the ticket like in these state senate elections, if the top of the ticket, donald trump, falls more than five points behind his opponent, it's very hard for these senators to compete. in the current wbur poll in new hampshire, kelly ayotte has fallen ten points behind her opponent, governor maggie hassan. that's a stunning loss for ayotte who now has to decide whether to stick with trump or decouple. pat toomey is facing the same thing in pennsyl

ryan's people have been pretty relaxed and confident. the latest numbers show he enjoys about an 84% approval rating among conservatives in this part of the state. he also enjoys the support of a machine that got scott walker elected three times. you got a lot of unified people out there. little old ladies at the poll saying they're here to support paul ryan. on nehlen's side, they're excited about all this new attention that's been drawn tot race because of the things that donald trump has said and the things that he has done. so you've got new volunteers. you've got new money. the people are out working the ground. they're anti-establishment people. they're hoping to shake up the machinery, and they're hoping to do that by trying to impact the top republican in the house directly. but it's a tall order. in order to pull off an upset here, it would have to be a megaupset, and you wouldn't want to bet the family cow on that one, trish. >>> also breaking tonight, everyone, two new campaign controversies are exploding. one involved donald

he's now in with ryan, with mccain, with ayotte. and, doug, i think he actually endorsed you, but we just didn't have time to play the tape. >> i would welcome it. you know, donald trump did what he had to do, governor, at a time when his poll numbers are sinking. he is behind by four points in georgia, behind in three other swing states substantially. the national polls have been sinking. he made the right decision. the question is why this took so long and how many more flip-flops there will be. >> all right. kelly, last week my in box was getting filled up with every day saying, what's trump doing? why is he not on the attack to hillary? he's off on these other tangents. and tonight after that speech, as people were watching, those same people were blowing out my inbox saying, this is the donald trump we want to see. and they're all happy. so was this a turning point for the trump campaign moving forward? >> yes, governor, i believe it was. i actually think you'll look back at today as a really great day for trump/pence, and a te

first, looks like ryan's been lyin'. >>> i have a theory. nothing good ever happens when you lie to your mother. ryan lochte has apologized for his behavior for not being candid about what happened at a brazilian gas station last week. it all started when lochte told his mom that he and his swimming buddies were robbed and someone put a gun to his head. his mom goes and tells a reporter. thanks, mom. and it becomes a big deal. until brazilian police said no, that's not the whole story and released some tape. here's ryan and his fellow fish at the gas station bathroom, my usual haunt, where police say they vandalized the john and were intoxicated. those details, if true, weren't revealed by ryan originally. police said security guards used the guns to control the athletes and took money to cover the cost of the bathroom damage. i have been there, too. lyin' ryan sticking to the story that someone pointed a gun at him and demanded money. was it robbery, a shake-down, a language barrier? i don't know. but i know this. tell your mother the whole

that is the home state of speaker paul ryan. and now ryan said he supports the republican nominee and criticizing him for veering off message and saying his support of trump does not come as a blank check. >> and hillary clinton releasing a new attack ad, looking to court disgrunteled republicans. >> he talked about using a nuclear weapon. >> and you have to ask yourself do i want a person of that temperament control the nuclear codes. as of now i would have to say no. >> let's bring back nina easton and vince. and this news that trump is now ready to endorse speaker ryan. is that a sign that some of the flaps that are stirred up within the republican party might be coming to an end. >> i think there will be more flaps. but a sign that he's listening to people outside of himself and making a decision to unify the party. on the question of these ads, it is fascinating that the democrats see in your own fox news polls, the vulnerability of donald trump and going after both of those. his standing with the republican party, he only

paul ryan has endorsed donald trump. donald trump is going out and raising millions and millions of dollars for the republican party, not just for his own presidential campaign. the money that he is raising for the party will help elect republicans up and down the ticket, including people like speaker paul ryan. liz: up and down the ticket, that that is a huge topic of conversation but will you say to so many critics listen, especially the campaign certainly appears to be in disarray? >> i don't think so at all. donald trump is got a bump after his convention. hillary clinton got a bump after hers. as the last couple of days have shown he is committed to staying focused and targeting hillary clinton and showing that there is a very, very clear contrast between those two candidates. the two biggest issues in poll after poll americans say are the economy and national security. they say they trust donald trump over hillary clinton on both of those issues. when you draw the contrast on those issues as we've done last couple

what other corn intentions could ryan lochte or any of the other swimmers face? >> this could result in suspensions, specifically if the suspensions go down to the younger guys that were involved. there were three other swimmers, all of whom are much younger than lochte who could potentially have a decent olympic future ahead of hem. if they were to get involved in this sort of suspension deal, they might have more problems. but with lochte, he's kind of the ringleader, so it seems as if anyone's going to get suspended, it might be him. and it will be telling how long it would be, if it would affect the other people involved in this incident. but like i said, at age 32, it's highly unlikely he would come back in tokyo anyway. if the suspension were to go through, say, that to lille picks, it might not even matter. jenna: sure. after covering so many different athlete scandals, it's not unknown to us that athletes sometimes get into trouble. [laughter] we've done enough of these stories. what do you think is the right thing? is there a right thing to handle this s

>> well, dan, ryan basically endorsed him. ryan says his endorsement doesn't necessary say he can't take issue with trump from time to time with subjects. that's what he did with his criticism of the khans, for example. endorsement doesn't mean a vow of silence. here's the thing, why does trump not ignore that? and move on? >> well, he's marching to his own drummer and everyone in politics has to march to their own drummer, palm. these are politicians running for re-election all across the united states. the rule of thumb as we all know, is at the top of the ticket like in the state senate elections, if at the top of the ticket donald trump falls more than 5 points behind his opponent it's hard for the senators to compete. in the current poll in new hampshire, kelly ayotte has fallen ten points behind her opponent. that's a stunning loss for maggie, for kelly ayotte, who now has to decide whether to stick with trump or to decouple from donald trump. pat toomey is facing the same thing and raced against katie mcginty. he is try

as for ryan's endorsement of trump, so far ryan has now wavered, though he did say yesterday, that as with any endorsement, there is never a blank check. >> he's had a pretty strange run since the convention. you would think that we'd want to be focusing on hillary clinton and all of her deficiencies. she is such a weak candidate that one would think we'd be on offense against hillary clinton, and it is distressing that that's not what we're talking about these days. >> that's what most republicans want to see. they want to see trump going after clinton, not members of his own party. but even after these endorsements, divisions are still there as governor scott walker said yesterday, we are ryan republicans here in wisconsin, not trump republicans. tonight trump is holding a big rally in new hampshire but first he is attending two fund-raisers in massachusetts, and one is in nantucket, which a just a short ferry ride away from where president obama will be. the first family begins their two-week long summer vacation today in martha's vineyard. >>> let's bring in the co-chair of donald

first, looks like ryan's been lyin'. they feel good? no... you wouldn't put up with part of a pair of glasses. so when it comes to pain relievers, why put up with part of a day? these are not useful. live whole. not part. aleve. this car is traveling over 200 miles per hour. to win, every millisecond matters. both on the track and thousands of miles away. with the help of at&t, red bull racing can share critical information about every inch of the car from virtually anywhere. brakes are getting warm. confirmed, daniel you need to cool your brakes. understood, brake bias back 2 clicks. giving them the agility to have speed & precision. because no one knows & like at&t. hthis bad boy is a mobile trading desk so that i can take my trading platform wherever i go. you know that thinkorswim seamlessly syncs across all your devices, right? oh, so my custom studies will go with me? anywhere you want to go! the market's hot! sync your platform on any device with thinkorswim. only at td ameritrade. and an early morning mode.ode. and a partly sunny mode

those details, if true, weren't revealed by ryan originally. police said security guards used the guns to control the athletes and took money to cover the cost of the bathroom damage. i have been there, too. lyin' ryan sticking to the story that someone pointed a gun at him and demanded money. was it robbery, a shake-down, a language barrier? i don't know. but i know this. tell your mother the whole truth because mom's proud of you and she's going to talk. all right. quickly, start with you. what do you think happened? >> i have no idea what actually happened. i think the more believable lie here would be this dye job was done at gun point. because people would have said all right, that checks out. that sounds about right. >> what do you think? i don't watch the olympics because there are too many young beautiful people. that depresses me. i prefer to work in cable news. in olympics, that would be a 1. in cable news, i'm like a 7. anyway -- that wasn't a question. >> no, look it was bad but not as bad as michael phelps because they were drunk a

ryan lochte is in the news once every four years. i think that's different for companies that would be seeking an endorsement from him. so i do think there's a difference there. but we'll see what's in the cards. i hope it's something on bravo or e! >> beyond that, jonas, what company will sponsor this guy? who's going to hire him to do what? >> a door company to show how tough their doors are that an olympic athlete can't kick through the door. i can think of a hundred ads. the bottom line i feel to john's point. i feel bad for brazil. spent billions to show the world this is not a dangerous place and this story if it didn't get exposed for being adsurb and the media deserves hits for not attacking the story could have ruined that image and made it a dangerous place to be a tourist, so i'm glad it did come out the way it did and people are not scared to go to rio other than the pool we heard about. but i do think we're being a little hard on the kid given how much slack we give other people when they make up far worse lies. fighting

and yesterday refusing to endorse house speaker paul ryan and john mccain. he says he's not quite there now. now publicly switching sides. the republican congressman richard hanna of trump's home state announced he would vote for hillary clinton calling him unfit. a former supporter of chris christie said she too will be voting for hillary clinton. and a leader for jeb bush said she would be leaving the leaders. >> he has not made the transition to being the potential of the united states which is a much tougher league. people are going to watch you every single day and take everything they can out of context and he's not yet performing at the level that you need to. >> and there's separate reports from nbc news and abc news indicating republicans are working on a backup plan in case they have to replace him as their nominee. senior party officials say trump would have to voluntarily leave the race. they cannot. they cannot force him out, but the concern that he might drop out is so great that they are reviewing the rules for choosing a new nominee. a trump

certainly paul ryan or john mccain or kelly ayotte. both of those senators are in tough re-election races. i think they would rather the republican nominee not be talking about them at all and they would rather he focus on hillary clinton and running a more disciplined campaign. >> as the publisher of the campaigns in elections magazine, have you heard anything about this, asking you about this sort of october surprise? you think there would be an october surprise as it pertains to the gop race for the presidency? >> there's always the potential for an october surprise. when you're looking at this volatility, this particular election, i think we can kind of sit back and say anything can happen. so i think there's still a great deal of unease, not only on the part of the republican party and folks that are, you know, supporting donald trump and national republican leaders but on the part of democrats, right. we've had between the hacking issue and the e-mail revelations. there's a grave concern among a lot of democratic strategists i've

paul ryan has been crushing his challenger 17-1. you still have trump-infused drama, refusing to endorse the speaker of the house, then reluctantly endorsing the speaker of the housing. if you remember back to that other primary, trump doesn't draw much water in southern wisconsin. >> southeast wisconsin where the paul ryan congressional district is, did not vote for trump. it voted for cruz. it was overwhelmingly for cruz. wisconsin was overwhelmingly for cruz. >> reporter: now, paul nehlen is a political newcomer. he blasts ryan over the tpp, over immigration, criticizing him for opposing the border wall but having a backyard fence at his house here in janesville. nehlen is running ads that show him on a harley with his tattoos on display. his very energizedized and on the street, heather. >> what does it do with paul ryan, does it hurt donald trump in the general election? >> it certainly doesn't help him in the general election. paul ryan is conservative with those especially keeping scott walker from the reat all. the people wh
