. >> ryan: yeah. we think pre-existing conditions is a very important feature of any healthcare system. >> pelley: children will stay on their parents' plans until the age of 26? >> ryan: yeah, that's something that we actually have always had in our plan, as well. >> pelley: and women will pay the same as men? that didn't used to be the case. >> ryan: it depends on the age of a person. so-- w-- we believe that we should-- have support based on age. the sicker and the older you get, the more support you ought to get. if you're a person that has-- low income, you probably should have more assistance than a person with high income, for example. >> pelley: is your plan going to cover everyone in america? >> ryan: we will give everyone access to affordable healthcare coverage. >> pelley: in the first year, what else do you expect to get through the congress? >> ryan: we really want to focus on economic growth and growing the economy. there are a lot of regulations that are really just crushing jobs. look

when you take on paul ryan, you are not just taking on paul ryan. you are taking on the chamber of commerce. you are taking on the koch brothers. you are taking on wall street. you are taking on all of the transnational elites that will do everything to keep their speaker in congress. let's consider how others have done before us. since his reelection bid in 2000, paul ryan has never faced a real primary challenge. he has essentially run unopposed for nearly 20 years. historically, u.s. representatives from wisconsin are rarely ever challenged. one reporter observed that from 1950 through 2014, less than one in five wisconsin u.s. representatives faced a primary challenger. since 1950, only one wisconsin u.s. representative has ever lost his primary. but we took on the challenge because we knew that despite the odds, we could not continue to be quiet and sit down and watch as we were led by a man who does not normally look down upon our desires but actively fights against them at every turn. we know how the people of our district and state feel. we

when you take on paul ryan, you are not just taking on paul ryan. you are taking on the chamber of commerce. you are taking on the koch brothers. you are taking on wall street. you are taking on all of the transnational elites that will do everything to keep their speaker in congress. let's consider how others have fared before us. since his reelection bid in 2000, paul ryan has never faced a real primary challenge. he has essentially run unopposed for nearly 20 years. historically, u.s. representatives from wisconsin are rarely ever challenged. one reporter observed that from since 1950, only one wisconsin u.s. representative has ever lost his primary. but we took on the challenge because we knew that despite the odds, we could not continue to be quiet and sit down and watch as we were led by a man who does not normally look down upon our desires but actively fights against them at every turn. we know how the people of our district and state feel. we have seen the polls. we know that seven out of 10 republicans in wisconsin favor a pause in muslim

if he chooses to have a meeting with paul ryan and insult paul ryan afterwards because ryan doesn't immediately endorse him, then that will make the process longer and tougher. there's a part of donald trump that says i don't need paul ryan. i don't need the republican establishment. anybody that's with me strengthens me in a way. if donald trump really does want to win, really does want to be president of the united states, really wants to govern, he needs the republican speaker of the house on his side. they should just play nice today. it's an old broadway music song "getting to know you" they need to get to know each other and good things will most likely come in the end. >> what is paul ryan hoping to extract from donald trump? mitch mcconnell, it's a tepid endorsement but said i'll support donald trump. paul ryan has not been willing to go that far. what could happen in that room to change paul ryan's opinion and say i'll get behind donald trump. >> i think anything can happen in the room today that is going to cause an immediate about face. the two of them on a huge number of issues of p

ryan's whole m.o. since he has been here has been to deal with medicare and social security, something that donald trump has been more standoffish on. i'm told that was part of the conversation of specifics. >> stand by. jim acosta, what are you hearing from the senate side on their meeting with donald trump, senate republican leaders? >> reporter: well, keep in mind, wolf, as dana was talking about, the bridge to cross for donald trump with the senate leaders is not as far and as wide as it is with paul ryan. mitch mcconnell is at this point endorsing donald trump. donald trump does not have the same problem on a senate side as with the house. they are pretty pleased about how the meeting went with paul ryan. i just talked to a trump aid who said we do not and they feel like paul ryan is not the type of leader who is just going to jump on board on day one but in the words of this one aid that makes paul ryan a good speaker. wolf, when you are hearing all of the right things being said around something

jackie orozco, fox 35 news. >> ryan: certainly tense there. >> ryan: breaking news at a scene of a home invasion. details are very limited at this point. happening near the end of the pineda causeway. we'll bring you updates. they are very busy in melbourne this morning. >> ryan: breaking news out of france. police have killed a man. >> amy: they said that the man was armed with a knife. live pictures show the crime scene tape. two officials said that the man had wires coming out of his clothing. an explosive team is on site. man lying on the ground. it happened at noon, and they are six hours ahead of us. today is the anniversary of the a25bgs on the charlie hebdo. and they just moments ago had played homage to those killed. this is out of paris this morning, and we'll have the latest here on fox 35 >> ryan: a man accused of stagging -- stabbing a couple. >> amy: 19-year-old michael phillips sketch was released. after they interviewed the couple. phillip's own father identified that sketch as his own son and turned his son in. the couple even though they have related. in fact, they sai

a world familiar to ryan. but money can't buy you love. >> he was in the rebound state still. >> reporter: it was a few months after ryan and long-time girlfriend lauren worley had broken up. she didn't know shayna, but her do you think that she was just a gold digger thinking, you know what, ryan's my ticket to a good life? >> actually, yes. i'm going to get me a doctor or a lawyer. that's who she wanted to date. >> reporter: but as time went on, it wasn't clear if ryan and shayna actually were dating. >> i don't know if he would tell you they were in a relationship. >> reporter: ryan's friends say he lost interest rather quickly and tried to end things with shayna, but she refused. how can he allow her to decide whether they're going to break up or not? was too nice.n't able to. didn't want to hurt her feelings. >> he did feel duty bound to let her down easy. >> reporter: so easy, the relationship continued on and off for more than a year, with ryan and shayna chronicling it all to friends on social media. r

obama people, the ryan budget, ryan budget, ran against the ryan budget. i saw a tweet saying are we headed towards the disposition of trump and the policy agenda of paul ryan, is that the trade that ultimately happens here which is all the orthodoxy of paul ryan which is let me note not particularly popular with voters, all the stuff that is big cuts of top marginal rates, austerity, entitlement reform, cutting medicare, married to trump, that seems like an electoral disaster for me? >> very good for republicans but not a good pitch to independents and all of those that are talking about donald trump's temperament, but also look at paul ryan in terms of trying to create leverage with donald trump. if you listen to that press conference he's trying to talk about bringing trump over to the conservative side. we've already seen trump flip-flop on taxes. first he would raise them for the wealth and got a lot of pushback and now he's saying the wealthy would pay less. paul ryan is trying to maximize his policy leverage. >> you know, i just don't see how they a

between trump and ryan. after that second meeting, trump will has to the national republican senatorial committee headquarters. he'll have a meeting with the top republican in the senate, senator mitch mcconnell. mcconnell a little different from ryan. he has said publicly that he will back donald trump as the republican party's nominee for president. no equivocation there from mcconnell. and the full slate of senate republican leaders will be at that meet with mcconnell and with trump. a lot of meetings. a lot of big name republicans. high stakes day here in washington for the presumptive republican nominee. our eyes and ears on the ground this morning. katy tur, hallie jackson and luke russert. katy tur, we begin where the story is at rnc headquarters. you're right outside there. donald trump pulled up a short while ago. paul ryan is in the building. set the scene for us. >> well, basically this building is surrounded by press. take a look at what you're seeing right outside of the back door where donald t

and i loved ryan. i still love ryan. he's my lover in the clouds. what? he was challenged by a team of lumberjacks. let's do this. he would drive them to hard knocks canyon, where he would risk broken legs, losing limbs, and slipping and dying. not helping. but death would have to wait. james left with newfound knowledge, a man's gratitude, and his shirt. how far will you take the all-new rav4 hybrid? toyota. let's go places. lowe's oanyone can haveee a beautiful garden. finally, something in this yard as beautiful as me. enjoy. now get perennials, 3 for $10, at lowe's. your body is a finely tuned instrument. diarrhea can throw it out of rhythm. imodium multi symptom relief combines two powerful ingredients to relieve diarrhea faster and ease gas, cramps and bloating. restore rhythm with imodium. tso when we had him, we bought one of those he washing machines and ease gas, cramps and bloating. but it took forever turns out it wasn't the machine, it was our detergent. so we switched to tide turbo clean and now we get way cleaner clothes way faster make a m

and take on paul ryan. you didn't see him challenge paul ryan in his stump speech tonight when he was at his rally. you know, he released a statement saying we're going to agree to disagree. and donald trump moved on. and so i think we're seeing -- i know we always say this -- a different donald trump than the one that would have taken to twitter, because he's not running against anybody anymore. >> no twitter tirade but a statement that a traditional politician, but what about the rest of the campaign? how are they reacting? >> i think tonight at a rally our sarah murray reported that while trump didn't say anything, corey lewandowski was gaggling to reporters off-camera, and reporters were asking him whether this was a slap in the face to donald trump, and he said, look, there's the leader of the republican party. and he pointed to donald trump. it's not paul ryan. it's donald trump. >> who is it? who is it? >> that's a big question. it depends on which vision you embrace, and i don't think this is an arg

ryan: i'm not going to get into that. o ahead. >> so over the course of the last couple of months you had denounced donald trump for xenophobea and islamaphobia, inciting violence and for saying things that could be interpreting -- interpreted as inciting violence. at what point do you dede nouns his candidacy? mr. ryan: i don't believe i'll have to do that. this is a democratic process. the republican primary voter is going to make this decision on who our nominee is going to be. if the person doesn't get a sufficient dell fwats, then it goes to the convention and the delegates make that decision. those delegates are elected in each of the caucuses, in each of the districts, every state has a different way of doing it, by republicans. i'm going to respect that process. so it isn't my place to say who our nominee is or what. if anybody, not just donald trump if anybody is out there representing the republican party in ways that we believe disfigure conservatism or do not portray what our views and principles are, i as a p

>> paul ryan does not support a third party, because paul ryan is raising money for republicans. paul ryan wants to -- whether donald trump wins or loses, he wants to be there. if donald trump loses to pick up the pieces and move on to keep the house majority, senate majority and maybe down the road can run for president. i think paul ryan was putting down a marker today and donald trump was offended that paul ryan didn't wait until they met before having this break, if you will. paul ryan also made clear, he also made very clear, erin, he would like to support trump and is hoping they can have a meeting, one set up for next week where trump can at least embrace most of the ryan agenda. the principles of the ryan agenda. and that then they can say we agree to disagree on some other things. >> perhaps they'll get there. a quick final word, why would he do it ahead of their meeting? >> i don't know. because i think that paul ryan wanted to be the one who is in charge of the discussion, right? he wants to be the one out front. "outfront." play off words. but, you know, erin, here's

ryan: martha? martha: congressman ryan? rep. ryan: let's look at this from the view of the ayatollahs. what do they see? they see this administration trying to water down sanctions in congress for over two years. they're moving faster toward a nuclear weapon. they're spinning the centrifuges faster. they see us saying when we come into the administration, when they're sworn in, we need more space with our ally, israel. they see president obama in new york city the same day bibi netanyahu is and he, instead of meeting with him, goes on a daily talk show. they see, when we say that these options are on the table, the secretary of defense walked them back. they are not changing their mind. that's what we have to do, is change their mind so they stop pursuing nuclear weapons, and they're going faster. martha: how do you do it so quickly? look, you both saw benjamin netanyahu hold up that picture of a bomb with a red line and talking about the red line being in spring. if the romney-ryan ticket is elected, can you solve this in two m

ryan and amy, back to you. >> ryan: better traffic scene than we've seen in denver. they have snow this morning. that's rough close to april. on the business front this morning, we know floridians love their craft beer. >> amy: that's right. the new brewers' association says a record number of right now florida is one of the locations specifically mentioned as a popular brewery location. new breweries are springing up in orlando, winter springs, st. cloud, even sanford. just to name a444444444444ew of those a1as. >> ryan: now you can stay three extra hours at the magic kingdom. the extra-hours ticket will be $149 per person. it's only available during select nights, really cool, intimate experience. but you will be paying about $250 if you add the ticket and the extra hours. >> amy: the easter bunny is a cash cow. data from the florida retail federation estimates that consumers will spend $17.3 billion on easter items this weekend. that means everything from gifts to candy and food. the average shopper will spend $146, up from just over $140 last year. >> ryan: my fa

i didn't get it from ryan, though, paul ryan. that's a hard one. >> he's making everyone boo him wherever he goes. >> here's a funny thing. paul ryan is going to be speaker of the house. you knew tip and people that run the house. good luck getting anything through the house of representatives. it's funny for donald. he can do that to ben carson and he can do that to mike huckabee. good luck doing that to the speaker of the house. >> trump also declined to rule out blocking ryan from becoming the convention chairman. and that call he's referring to, the speaker's office says that never hand and the last time the two spoke was march. >> we have some other guests. andrea mitchell, have you ever seen a nominee, a presumptive nominee going after somebody in as powerful a position as the speaker? >> not that i can recall. i just think that -- i just think it was a mistake. and you could argue, i was talking to some republicans yesterday who said ryan probably should have waited until after the meeting before laying down those lines, b

for ryan it's also a lot about tone. he's made a series of comments over the course of the primary season calling for civility, calling for a different type of politics, a politics that's not so divisive and that reaches out more, and he sees that as the way to grow the party, in addition to just something that he personally believes in. and that's a harder thing i think for trump to make a commitment on potentially if he were even inclined to do so because as we've seen trump is unpredictable, that he could say one day yes i'm going to behave from now on. would you believe it? >> all this traction how fractured is the party? we'll keep talking about this but one of the most fascinating dynamics, you nexted jake's interview with paul ryan. jake has an interview with sarah palin coming up next. donald trump is the leader of the republican party. paul ryan is its highest elected official, third in line to the presidency. sarah palin a trump supporter saying as donald trump is trying to unify the republican party and get el

ryan shouldn't be speaker. will there be pressure on ryan because after all, republican voters did choose donald trump. is there some pressure there where he's going to have to come around eventually? >> yes, there will be pressure, of course. but the real good thing for ryan is most people in the house, those are his constituents, the 247 members of the house republican conference, those people are very supportive of paul ryan. and that's what matters for paul ryan at this point. also keep in mind paul ryan is looking at 2020. he's looking at the long-term horizon of his own career, even if he won't admit it because he wants to run in 2020. that's a big open secret. so i guess he's probably willing to take the short-term hit to preserve his own integrity when it comes to his own political prospects in 2020. >> jake sherman with politico. thanks for the time. >>> let's turn to david frum, a former speech writer. you've written about how donald trump has broken with orthodox conservatism in the paul ryan era. th

what does donald trump make a paul ryan's statement -- about paul ryan's statement? trump wrote, "i am not ready to support paul ryan's agenda. perhaps in the future, we can agree what is best for the american people. they have been treated badly personal long, it is time for politicians to put them first. john: i don't feel like love is in the air. mark: we will have more on the wild presidential race all law -- all night. you can listen to this program every night on the radio, loopnet -- bloomberg 99.net. saldigital education with khan. ♪ >> this is trending business. salamat. ad we are going to be live in shanghai. in sydney, here's a look at what we are watching. trade, the bigto losers, stock now losing 14%. name at the top of the rba,

as you said, i mean, paul ryan, the paul ryan i know is very thoughtful, careful, cautious. he's serious. he's also a fun guy and takes the stuff seriously. this is his life. he's above all a committed public servant. and he has ashooed celebrity at every turn and i think the trump campaign is against everything paul ryan has done over the past decade or two of his career so that's why you hear that kind of caution. you know, we're planting the seeds to bridge the gap to get closer to being unified. paul ryan's job first and foremost to protect the health of the house and so i'm sure during that meeting he, you know, he sat down with donald trump and picture him very clearly saying, look, i get it. you're doing what you got to do. it's been very successful. congratulations. but let me explain to you some of the challenges that we're having in the house. and to, you know, to sort of educate, educate donald trump. he doesn't have a lot of political experience. any actually. >> who do you think needs who more? bill, i promise i'm coming to you. s.e. more of a paul ryan needs do

that is what ryan wants to do. andp template -- change it ryan will be happy. nicolle: so, all this said, do you think that ryan endorsement is either imminent or probable? or? mark: i do not know exactly how he is going to do it. my hunch and talking to one of his advisors they do not want to , make this a big deal. nicole: too bad. mark: he can sort of ease into it. easing into the hot water of the cold water. he went a long way today. it is inevitable. i cannot imagine he can back down, particularly because so many of his colleagues are getting on board with trump. he will find a way to say, i have watched donald trump, they will meet again. and now i am comfortable that he is not a better president than hillary clinton but someone we can work with as conservatives to change the country. trump was running against not just washington before today, but against the republican party. bill clinton did the same thing in 1992, but after he got the nomination, he turned a little bit and ran more against both parties and the washington culture. i think once he reache

out of the blue, ryan received a mysterious letter from his accuser. >> it says ryan, have your lawyers speak to me the next time they're down here. >> seller in quickly paid a visit. >> may i call you chuck? >> mr. eric or charles, i don't go by chuck. >>> she videotaped charles erikson. >> thing happened much differently than apreviously stated. i could not accept in my conscious mind that i was the sole perpetrator. >>> four years after his testimony put ryan behind bars, erikson had a change of heart. and told her he had lied. erikson said he was the one that committed the murder. >> i beat the victim kent until he was on the ground. and then i took his belt off and strangled him with it. >>> erikson said that ryon try >> i regret now that i put an innocent man through that. he didn't deserve it. >>> but erikson's new story still put ryan at the crime scene. >> ryan was actually the one that pushed me off of the victim. >> he's exonerated you by saying you had nothing to do with the murder but said you were there. >> there's a problem. >> i believe he thinks that he committed the cr

paul ryan. after the meeting pr pr gave a press conference to talk about how it went and well it's kind of hard to tell how he felt about it. >> let me say this. i think we had a very encouraging meeting. i'm very encouraged. i heard a lot of good things from our presumptive normal e knee. i was very encouraged with what i heard from donald trump today. this is our first meeting. i was very encouraged with this meeting and i'm very encouraged we can put that together. we're off to a very encouraging start. >> it sounds like someone rocking back and forth in a straight jacket. >> that was quite a meeting yesterday. >> it was encouraging. >> i was shocked by some of the things paul ryan said after the meeting. it was saying that donald trump shared their conservative values and their vows of limited government. no, he doesn't. donald will say that. he's a democrat. you've got a democrat from new york running against a democrat from new york. i will endorse our democrat from new york. do not say he

paul ryan plays tough. paul ryan is in a situation. any other speaker of the house would be in a seemingly tough position. >> what's so tough? if he's the nominee of your party, it should be like that endorsed. >> but he's a bit rogue. he's not a traditional republican. he's not a traditional conservative. >> he's a guy that wants to cut social security, medicare. he is not, you know, he's establishment. he's not even conservative for crying out loud. >> you are talking about paul ryan? >> yes. >> paul ryan, he has that problem, too. he's got problems with the right flank, the conservative wing of the conservative party. he has problems built in without donald trump. donald trump comes along, he is in the middle of two great tech on theic forces that are better colliding inside the republican party him paul ryan is the highest roompging setting aside the highest ranking republican in the country. >> is that the problem? is that the prosch? >> it's a power play, of course it is, lou. >> certainly paul ryan understands that -- >> he's no

not just trump versus ryan. sarah palin saying that paul ryan has to worry about his house primary being challenged in a republican primary back in wisconsin this summer. there have been a number of these republican primary challenges that have succeeded. she mentioned eric canter who lost his. and sarah palin has played a big role in these tea party upsets. you look at paul ryan and that district. does paul ryan have anything to worry about in his own backyard? >> he has a primary challenge but he is popular in his district. he won in his district in 2012 even when romney didn't do so well in wisconsin. sarah palin, it's questionable about her political capital whether she can influence the grassroots in wisconsin. this pop liulism rising on the right. they are concerned as they look toward the fall. not only will those vote errs c out but will they go against their own senators? >> we get ready for the trump/ryan meeting. thanks for the time. appreciate it. >>> coming up, the never trump campaign that took a m

thank you. >> speaker ryan? a lot of people said hey, this is exactly what he said about becoming speaker and ended up taking the job. what are you saying to people who are skeptical of you and say you are going to back into the system -- >> luke, those are apples and oranges. being speaker of the house is a far cry from being president of the united states specifically because i was already in the house. i'm already a congressman. i was asked to take a responsibility within congress that i've already been serving in from the one they had. that is entirely different than getting the nomination for president of the united states by your party without running for the job. so completely non sequitur comparison in my book. >> so what happens if this goes to a second ballot since your in charge, and what happens, who prevents them, you, the chair as the convention from somebody putting your name -- >> il not allow my name. i am opposed to my name being put in place. the rules committee which is assembled by the deleg

speaker ryan: good morning, everybody. yesterday, the foreign affairs committee passed two very important resolutions. one resolution by jeff fortenberry states that isis is committing genocide against christians and other religious minorities. in every resolution by chris smith, that condemns the gross human rights violations of the aside regime, these are difficult subjects. that is why we need to take these steps, and in syria and iraq, christians are being executed. churches and holy sites being destroyed. children are being enslaved. the obama administration is still not ready to say that isis andy aside regime are committing crimes against humanity. we are. we are ready to say this. we need to recognize these atrocities with clear eyes. we need to continue to pray for the persecuted. second, the obama administration is in the final stages of preparing so-called fiduciary role. this would raise costs and limit options for people seeking advice on a retirement plan. this could hurt millions of middle-class savers. we h

paul ryan is out. why couldn't he just send out a paper statement saying i'm not running period, full stop, stop talking about it, it's over? what's his angle? why have this press availability today? >> what we've seen throughout paul ryan throughout this entire process is he's gotten this question for six months. will you run? won't you run? and his whole strategy has been keep his name in the national political national political conversation to drive a positive agenda for the republican party. and -- >> so he's the cleanup guy. >> yeah. one way or the other, he wants to be the -- you know, he's going to be the person who'll be around in washington next january it there's a republican being sworn into the white house or not. and he's the one who's going to put forward a positive legislative agenda. from his perspective he needs to be a part of the conversation today one way or the other and a paper statement wouldn't keep him in that mix quite as much as he'd like to be. >> so under these possible sc

ryan wins easily. john joins us from arizona on the republican line. : yes, thank you for having me on. i was wondering why paul ryan did not cover the unlicensed contracting that is going on for all of our state, taking our , with billion-dollar homebuilders, commercial builders, and with that going on, it causes going to our federal government, which they do not trace, and the illegals are using this to take our jobs on our construction site. host: ok, that is your statement? caller: yes. host: chairman reince priebus talking, and going on to say it was a well-earned victory, saying that paul ryan has faithfully represent to the people of wisconsin and making the statement that conservatives have never changed and that his principled public service has made him a leader in our party. i know that paul will continue to articulate his vision as a confident and strong american. i look forward to seeing him return to congress as another term as speaker of the house. joining us from janesville, wisconsin,

pemeeti ryan. joining us now is the host of hardball, chris mathew, the campaign is pouncing on paul ryan's non endorsement and clearly he was not sueded today. >> what is paul ryan's role right now? >> he's got 245 seats or so to protect. he wants to keep the 218 majority. he wants to hold a party together. he wants to make sure of the evangelicals. he has a new role that i don't think the speaker ever had which is this sort of philosophical leaders of the party. the republican party is not a coalition party or a social. >>> it is not like that at all. that's the way it used to be. today the republican party and the ideology are conservatives. core principles, his job is to protect core principles and he's more of a high priest if you will. the decision they have to make is not to go along with trump. yes, the guys meeting the standards of our core principles. i think he will be slow in doing that. >> chris, last night, trump, the ultimate show, you are not the first to make this. heading into thi

his message to speaker paul ryan, the day after ryan snubbed him. >>> plus, trump getting a big boost from former vice president dick cheney. why cheney is going against his two former bosses. >>> and president obama taking on trump tonight. he says this election is not a reality show. let's go "outfront." >>> good evening, everyone. i'm kate bolduan. donald trump taking on the growing list of republicans saying they will not back the presumptive nominee. and just tonight, that list now includes trump's former rivals, jeb bush and lindsey graham. listen. >> no, but i won't talk about jeb bush. i will not say -- i will not say he's low energy. i will not say it. i will not say it! and i won't talk about lindsey graham. he fails with his campaign horribly. he then endorses somebody else. and then he endorses bush. and then he endorses everybody. he's like bad luck. >> but one person not forgotten but also not exactly in the same line of fire, house speaker, paul ryan, who says he cannot support trump, at least not yet. trump responding to ryan for the first time in front of one of his b

is it ryan? is it priebus? second question confronting the party's identity crisis when it comes to policy and agenda, trump has vast differences with ryan's leadership team from trade to immigration and entitlements and so on. it's hard to unite as a party if you don't have a real common agenda. the third challenge, it's the down-ballot danger that trump potentially poses, at least according to some of the poll numbers we're seeing right now at the top of the ticket. nowhere are those concerns more dramatic than the u.s. senate. that's where democrats believe they can rack up the gains they need to take back control of the senate and maybe even bigger than, that maybe even double digit gains if there were be a absolute landslide at the top of the ticket and the fourth challenge for republicans is the uncertainty surrounding trump's choice of a running mate. this could be trump's ultimate olive branch to the party, or it could be the ultimate rejection if he chooses a fire brand who is built in his own image. t

joint, trump-ryan statement. the podium. takes no, the other news. >> i think we had a very encouraging meeting. a very encouraged with this meeting. very encouraged. >> reporters got the message. >> this was an encouraging step. >> no endorsement. 1:00 p.m. more meetings for trump. 2:12, trump tweets -- >> things working out really well. >> 2:31 wheels up. mark: got a lot of work done. face-to-face. it is harder to attack people if you sit face-to-face with them. nicolle: may, but donald trump is, you know, a guy that is breaking all convention. i think that what is interesting about today as i am not sure this had anything to do with what his supporters wanted him to do. i reached out to a few of the trump supporters, and they were appalled he was going to try to kind of suck to people who disparaged him and disrespected what he has done. i think what trump wanted most today was respect and some sort of a claim for what is undeniably massive political publishing. -- political accomplishment . i'm not sure he go accomplishe

i'm jadiann thompson. >> ryan: i'm ryan schulteis, 7 news at 5:00 starts right now. investigation in southern california. police searching the home of superstar chris brown. >> kim: owen la brie's victim speaking out for the first time since the prep school rape trial. >> reporter: when is our next chance to get some much-needed rain? >> adam: tom brady sidelined. >> come back to be the best i can be just like every other year. >> adam: he is keeping things positive as he heads into his four-game suspension. >> announcer: 7 news at >> kim: we're following breaking news first at 5:00, an investigation under way at singer chris brown's house in california. police called to his home early this morning after a woman called 911. so he is now being interviewed by police as they also search his home. >> adam: this is not the first time brown has been in trouble with the law. ryan schulteis joins us with more. >> reporter: police are searching chris brown's home performing a protective sweep before interviewing people inside. of brown's california home for hours while brown

we just got this ryan news. before that you had bush xli and xliii saying they would not endorse him and would say nothing in this presidential election. this afternoon, mitt romney announced he would be skipping the convention in cleveland this summer. he said he would never vote for trump. ben sass wrote a 1500 word facebook quote saying there's no reason either front-runner believe in limiting anything about d.c.'s power. there are some republicans like senate majority leader mitch mcconnell and former minnesota governor who have fallen in line and say they will support their party's man. my question so you, taking in all the the index, the uniter, divider elements on both sides, what do we know about how things stand in trump's big challenge of bringing the party together? >> i thought before ryan, trump was having another better day than worse day in terms of unifying. the ryan thing really tilts the thing. i think the two president bushes, it shows you how much trump has changed our perception and expectat

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

he created speaker boehner and speaker ryan. he is now on board with donald trump because he wants the party to be unified. >> as you said, we haven't heard as much about that. want to go back to hallie jackson. >> reporter: yeah, our senate producer just ran up. we have reaction from senator mitch mcconnell in that meeting at the nrsc with donald trump. mcconnell was asked by reporters if he had endorsed trump in this meeting. he said, i already have some time back. he says he thinks everybody felt it was quite good and he indicated already he's endorsed him earlier. he was asked what issues mcconnell and trump talked about. he said we talked about a variety of things both campaign related and issue related. this is some of the first reaction we're getting from that meeting with senate leadership. mitch mcconnell calling it quite good. yet another sign as we add to what luke has been reporting and katy from reince priebus, the signal going out at least is that it was positive discussions moving forward. >> that is definitely th
