Transcripts For CNNW CNN Newsroom Live 20151104

Viewers in the United States and all around the world. Im john vause. Newsroom l. A. A new poll pitting the republican and democratic frontrunners shows a very close race. In a hypothetical matchup, ben carson and Hillary Clinton tied at 47 . The survey was done before last weeks republican debate. I think mark is highly overrated. Highly overrated. Ben carson does not have that energy. Marco doesnt show up to the United States senate. What jeb bush was saying in the last debate, i dont know, but he didnt say it well. When the email problem came up, Bernie Sanders lost his whole campaign. What he did was so stupid. Marco rubios personal finances are discredited. Oh, no, his personal finances all you have to do is look at his credit card. He is a disaster with his credit cards. He certainly lives bo his means, theres no question about that. Hey, jeff. Good to have you with us. We should mention youre a trump supporter, former white house political director. Hes back, mean donald is there. He tried to be statesmanlike for a while. Clearly if polls are and i case, that didnt quite work for him. In all candor, where theres three acts or a threeact play, you open up gangbusters. The second act is ups and downs and twists and turns. And then finally you get to the third act where theres victory or defeat. Were now in the very beginning of the second act. Is he going to be able to get things together for iowa or New Hampshire. This is the way of the world here, and you make these attacks. This is what president ial candidates do. Election day here in pennsylvania and i voted for candidates for the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and other offices. Theres nothing unusual about it. I would not ask you if this is the end of his popularity. Well move on. He has this book launch on tuesday, trump called out on a lot of the candidates to drop out. He mocked jeb bush yet again. Jeb bush had his own message for trump when he sat down to talk about cnn. Hes run for president twice hes won twice. I know how to win. Ive done it. What were seeing now is a fired up jeb bush, i guess. Three months before iowa. Can jeb bush reintroduce himself and catch on fire at this stage in the campaign . I think hes got a problem here. His new motto is jeb can fix it. And i can only tell you here that the base of the Republican Party doesnt want this to be fixed. They dont want washington to be fixed. Ill give you a good example. He likes to talk about education. Ronald reagan wanted to get rid of the department of education. Jeb bush wants to fix it. This is your international audience. This is what Margaret Thatcher used to call the socialist ratchet. What you have is a situation where the left moved the government in one direction, then the right, quote, unquote, came in and just basically sat on it and managed it. Then it moved left every time somebody else on left was elected. That in essence is what jeb bush is proposing. I can assure you the base of Republican Party thats out there for donald trump or ben carson, theyre not in any way connected to that. Donald trump did say if you have been campaigning for the last, you know, three, four, maybe five months now and your numbers are still in the basement, barely registering, it is time to get out of the race. And there would be a lot of people who agree with him. Yeah. Absolutely. Theres nothing wrong with starting the race at 1 or 2 . People like bill clinton, george mcgovern, jimmy carter, all of whom won the democratic nomination, george h. W. Bush in 1980, i mean, they were very, very low in the polls. But the difference is, they went up finally. They went up by a lot and eventually captured their partys nomination got on the ticket in the case of george h. W. Bush after Ronald Reagan beat him in the primaries. Theres nothing unusual about starting low. But youve got to go up. If at this point you dont have it, the message is you dont have it. Jeb bush started high, hes gone in the other direction. He was the frontrunner. Thats right. And one thing thats amazing is how donald trump has managed to get under jebs skin. Even today he was asked about donald trump was asked about his upcoming appearance on saturday night live and he said this, listen. My jeb impression . I dont want to do that. I dont like showing a person sleeping at a podium. There was plenty of folks there. Hes an entertainer and hes good at that kind of stuff. The snl is causing a lot of problems not just well, essentially for nbc. Latino group, the spanish congressional caucus is calling on nbc to stop this. And one of the reasons why i ask you this is because the polls do show that trump is now driving latino voters to Hillary Clinton. They arent necessarily pro clinton, but they are antidonald trump. Thats reflect on the Republican Party. Should the rest of the field be worried about donald trump and his standing right now with latino voters . One of the things thats very disturbing here, the Democratic Party historically has been the party of race. This is the party that form lated itself around supporting slavery, then segregation then lynching, then the klu klux klan. They were big on interning japanese americans because of their race. Now theyre into racial quotas and now theyre into illegal immigration because of skin color. This is what they do. And so these are special Interest Groups that do this. And i think its more time for the Republican Party of Abraham Clinton to claim their heritage. America is about ideas, a country based on ideas, not on race. And the Democratic Party, every last bit of it, including these Interest Groups need to be called out on it. I just want to leave it on the note, though, some people would say donald trump has done a lot when me called some mexicans illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrants. We dont want to relitigate that. That was months ago. 100 of the country is compose odd of descendants of immigrants. Myself included. And we have this programming no note, investigators are finishing their field work in the wreckage of metro jet flight 9268. Russia media reports the planes tail was found about three miles or 5 kilometers away from the rest of the debris, possibly an indication the flight came apart midair. And despite speculation of a bombing, investigators have not found any traces of explosives in the wreckage so far. For more from st. Petersburg russia where the flight was heading before it crashed the tail of the plane was found some distance from the wreckage. How will this play into the investigation . Well, the Russian Media is the one explaining the details, in this case, they have access to many of the sources on the ground. What we are learning from st. Petersburg newspaper this morn, this is the oldest newspaper in st. Petersberg, also the most respected newspaper in st. Petersbu petersburg. And of course, thats where this plane was flying to. They are now reporting Something Different that we havent heard until now. Theyre saying there are basically two types of injuries that the people onboard the aircraft sustained. There were those in the front section of the aircraft who sustained trauma and burns from falling, and those at the rear section of the aircraft, the tail section that experienced explosive trauma with metal fragments found inside the bodies. Now, of course, task state news agency yesterday said that bodies that have been tested so far for explosive residue showed no indications of explosive residue. And also that there were on the bodies that have been tested so far, this is according to tas yesterday, there was no indication of an impact on the bodies from explosions. So you now have from different parts of the Russian Media, talking to their own sources, sort of some beginning to be some varying accounts. Of course, here in st. Petersburg is where the families are viewing the bodies that have been returned here. So potentially in st. Petersb g petersburg, the local journalists here have access to some of those Forensic Experts that are working with the bodies as theyve been brought back here. And as their families are viewing them, jo season. And nick, with that in mind, with those reports that are coming out from the Russian Media and, i guess, various media organizations around the world. Were getting daily updates, but there isnt a lot of official word about what alk which you willy happened. Just a lot of speculation, unsourced reports from the Russian Press and others. How much frustration is that causing, in particular for the relatives of those onboard this flight . The few relative wes eve been able to speak to so far and close friends, really theyre in a phase at the moment from our discussions with them, at least limited discussions that theyre theyre really coming to terms with a horrible tragic loss. And then, of course, you know, theyve got to then identify their loved ones so theyre in a very, very traumatic and difficult situation at the moment. We havent heard family members so far complaining theyre not getting adequate help or information, that none of this is happening fast enough. Theres been an outpouring of support from the russian public in general and a desire to know what happened, but generaly speaking, its reason to believe say in russia, the expectations are getting quick answers, people generally dont expect that, and certainly thats what officials are saying. The investigation is being led by egypt, that it will take several weeks, and that we kchbt judge anything until the final results are in. However, that said, the president s spokesman has also been very keen to say dont draw unnecessary hypothetical links with the plane coming down and russias military actions inside syria. Obviously intended to sort of address that issue that isis itself has claimed responsibility for bringing this aircraft down. No evidence there to support that yet either. John . Thats an important point, which well be discussing next with bob behr with me in the studio. Nic robertson live are with us from st. Petersburg. Weve had this claim come out by isis that they took this plane down. What were looking at now with this flight, apart from a handful of flights like twa 800, most planes break up because of mali malice, either a missile or a bomb. In your experience, how easy, how difficult would it be for snb to get a bomb on to a flight like this . Its extremely easy. The explosives can be hidden, for instance, in the wall of a suitcase. You can take an ipad and turn it into a detonator. Just simply put it along the side case. You can get a pound of explosives. Getting explosives through airport security, if theres no nitrogen testing where they swab the suitcases, its carely easy. In an airport like sharma sharmal sheikh, theres no way to make sure the airport staff are 100 arent fundamentalists at that point. Ive flown out of that airport. It wasnt brisling with security when i was there. This highlights a wink link in International Air travel. You can have all the security you want in the United States and europe, but you get these airports outside of the system, it makes it very easy to get something on to a plane. Even the United States its easy. You cant keep track of all airport staff. People can get through the security checks. Who know what is goes through peoples head. A convert to the Islamic State can put a bomb on. Where does the investigation go . Right now, the key is the residue. Youve got to find the fuel that could have set this explosion off. Plas teak is the most obvious. The to look at the baggage. It wouldnt necessarily be on the passengers. If it were in the hold, the panels would be shielded from the explosive blast by the suitcases. So they actually have to find the suitcases where a bomb had gone off. They could do it eventually. You have the egyptians here, you have the russians, you have the french. The irish are there because the plane was in ireland, i think. Whos in charge, whos running the show, and is that just simply too many people calling the shots on the ground . I think its too many. Look at pan am 103, theres still a dispute. You have the Scottish Appeals Court said it was a travesty of justice. We cant agree on lockerbie. Egyptians to give us a straightup answer, whether it was an explosion, we may not get it. Were kind of seeing that now, arent we . Moscow claims, coming out of cairo, all these unsourced reports. We had this isis skred that was ridiculous. The plane was at 31,000 feet, it was out of the range of the shoulderrocket a missiles that they have. How did it muddy adequaters . It muddied it because they didnt give any key piece of evidence. Something that would give some sort of credibility to this tape. They have been known to claim attacks that they had nothing to do with. So i put no value in the tape at this point. Could another group be responsible for this . Al qaeda in yemen. They could get this on. Could they have claimed it in the name of the Islamic State . Absolutely. Theres no pattern to claims and some people claim them, some people dont. You have the Indian Airlines that was blown up, korean airlines, you have lockerbie, same way. So a credible claim isnt it doesnt add this happened about 25 miles from the israeli border. Thats one of the closely watched pieces of dirt in the dirt in the world. What would the israelis be feeding into this right now and how concerned would they be that Something Like this could po ten rlly happen so close. A surface to aramisle they would have picked up and they would have said something by now. The only way to get a surface to aramisle these groups is by stealing from the Egyptian Military. And theres been no reports of that. I think we can discount the missile at this point. And we really have to go back to looking for evidence there was a bomb on this plane. It may have been the tail, we dont know. The fact that its sinai is what concerns me the most. Its a war zone. Just because its so volatile. And theres a civil war going on in egypt. Its the kind of place where a plane gets blown up in the air. And youre talking surface to missile youre talking like the m17. Not an sa7 or anything like that, no. A short break here.

State of ohio just said no to legal pot. On tuesday, they rejected a ballot measure to legalize marijuana for both recreational and medical uses. Details now from cnns stephanie elam. Reporter john, voters in ohio decided to pass on legalizing marijuana. This was the first time in the country voters history they had a chance to legalize recreational and medical use at the same time. Called issue 3, it would have given commercial growing rights to just ten farms. Nick lachey, an nfl player, and a Fashion Designer and even president william tafts great, great grand nephews were all poised to cash in if the amendment passed. But the initiative had an uphill battle with some ohioans who support legalization saying issue 3 wasnt the way to go since it would line the pockets of so few. There was also issue 2 on the ballot, an antimonopoly countermeasure specifically designed to defeat issue 33. Ohio would have been the fifth state to legalize Recreational Marijuana and the 24th to legalize medical marijuana. John . Thank you. The codirect of the rand Drug Policy Research center. This measure was defeated by a pretty wide margin. Were voters saying no to legalized marijuana or just refusing a governmentcontrolled monopoly of marijuana . Well, john, they werent voting on a governmentrun monopoly, just to step back. As you know, a lot has been happening with Marijuana Policy in the states these past few years. While marijuana remains prohibited under federal law, a handful of states have passed initiatives, only removing the prohibition on marijuana, but also letting moreprofit Companies Come in and produce and regulate marijuana producing and selling, but its all regulated by the state. The state determines who gets the lie spence what was voted on in ohio took it a step further. There, only those individuals who put money into the ballot initiative, essentially, they would have been able to produce commercially. And so the government would not have had the ooblt to choose who actually does the production. So thats why what was voted on in ohio is very different than what was voted on in the other states. Why did they go for that different type of scheme compared to every other state and what looks to be another 16 states which are headed down the road of legalization . In ohio, there are a number of individuals trying to make money. They each put in a certain amount of money to bank roll the initiative. If it were to pass, they would have been the only individuals able to produce marijuana for the commercial market. So they would have been able to make profits off of that. It was an investment for them and it didnt pay out. Okay. It was all about the money. They took the gamble and they lost. I think they put up about 20 million in that initiative and it did not pay out. But they will say that that ballot measure would be back as soon as next year. Thanks for being with us. Appreciate it.

A new poll shows a tight race in the u. S. President ial election if they were held today. In a hypothetical matchup, an nbc wall street journal survey shows frontrunners ben carson and Hillary Clinton tied at 47 . Meantime, Republican Donald Trump who slipped to second in the National Polls, hes out with a new book. Its call eed crippled america russian state media says no traces of explosive devices have turned up so far in the debris of metro jet flight 9268. Meantime, as a precautionary measure, the u. S. Embassy in cairo has told employees to stay away from the Sinai Peninsula until the investigation is complete. The pentagon said the u. S. And russia conducted a Communications Test while flying over syria. Reports say a pentagon spokesman denied Russian Media accounts that the two countries held a joint training exercise. The spokesman said the test was part of an agreement to avoid conflict in syrian air space. The irans Supreme Leader is clarifying his countrys death to america chant. Al khameni says its aimed at the government and its policy, not american individuals. Khamenei says relations between u. S. And iran are not normalized. Yemen has been deluged after a rare tropical stort hit on tuesday. The storm dumped at least a years worth of rain and much more in some parts. Mud slides and flash flooding with a major threat in the countrys dry rugged terrain. People tried to rescue some who were rescued in a car. But we cannot confirm the a authenticity of the video. Meantime, fog is a big problem across much of europe and the United States. Were looking at some soupy conditions for some people. Indeed, it does. Its widespread across two different continents. Heres a look at atlanta right now. And theres a key thing missing. Thats the top half of many of the building. There are many sky scrapers hidden underneath that fog. Atlanta is not the only area that is dealing with some fog. This was earlier on tuesday. You see the bright white color, thats actual clouds. But the lighter almost grayish tone, that was fog. Its very widespread across much of the southeast and even parts of the midwestern United States. As we go into wednesday and even on thursday, were dealing with similar conditions, cities like atlanta, nashville, chicago, even washington, d. C. Going to be dealing with visibility of two miles or less. Same thing again as we transition into thursday. Many of the same cities, this time including new york city into memphis. Its not just the United States. Europe has also been dealing with a lot of fog. Same thing, the brighter whites, that would be the clouds, especially around the storm system. But some of the gray areas, that was the fog earlier on tuesday. Wednesday morning, copenhagen, areas like leads, manchester, hamburg, even sweden going to be dealing with very intense fog as we transition into thursday. Then it starts to just become more of a western europe issue. Now the reason for a lot of this fog is the type of weather that weve been having. So lets take a look. Typically, when you have a lot of fog like this, youve got a lot of wet ground. Youve seen a lot of rain in a lot of places. That surface becomes completely saturated. When it does at night, those skies clear back out. All of that heat then rises back up and allows your dew point temperature to match with your actual evening temperature. And thats what causes a lot of the radiation fog that sits at the surface. And again, thats what weve been seeing in a lot of these areas. So one other thing to notice is also the pattern. Because its been very warm and very moist in a lot of these places, especially very warm pulling up that gulf moisture into parts of the eastern half of the country. But the temperatures have also been warm. 20 degrees above average. However, john, out to the west, its been very cool out in your neck of the woods. And also a lot of moisture. Thats why weve been seeing a lot of the snow and rein. Thats actually been good news. A lot of the ski resorts are going to be opening up in just a few days from now. Snow is exactly what they were hoping for. Absolute my. A bit of moisture a bit of cold. There you go. Good to hear. Here in california, theres a new sense of urgency, el nino expected to be a big one. Crews are scrambling to clean up roads in some areas which have been slammed by recent storms. More rain is expected courtesy of the el nino weather pattern, which many fear could be extra strong this year. L. A. County public works crews making sure that every single storm drain is completely clear. And they got an ominous look at what el nino could do when a storm went through here just about two weeks ago. A thunderstorm bounded northern los angeles county. Cars becatrapped when mud gushe downhill sides. L. A. Called in heavy equipment to clear roads,s. In a way, theyre fighting water with water to clear huge milk shakes of muck in storm drains. Really, our charge this year is to really emphasize and to increase that awareness. The public works director, like her counterparts throughout california is touring danger zones, bracing for el nio. We know that these natural disasters and extreme events are going to happen. Its just what we can do a better job at. And we all can prepare and take care of each other to minimize losses and damages. Heres the latest National Weather service el nino warp popping. October sea surface temperature continues to reflect warming across the tropical, central and eastern pacific ocean. Based on waters now 2. 4 degrees celsius, this el nino is just behind the 19971998 e el nino event. That season, 30 inches of rain cascaded on to los angeles. So now county works crews are digging out ahead of el nino, clearing 82,000 catch basins and 3300 miles of storm drains. A road supervisor warns argues stay away of fly zones. A cliff or a mountainside stuck in a mud side during this storm we had heavy storms and people are unaware. They got caught up in heavy mud slides. The National Weather service says el ninos usually peak from january to march. But dont be surprised if some super heavy stuff starts to come down in december. S. In an interview with abc, whew l Robin Williams himself, in august of last year, his wife says he had been sober for eight years aechb wasnt depressed. Couldnt be cured . Was sick and what if one day your 5yearold said she didnt want to go to the doctor anymore. Instead, she wanted to go to heaven. What would you do. Heres elizabeth cohen. What princess are you today . Cinderella. Julian that snow has a neuromuscular disease thats slowly taking her life. She cant walk or breathe on her own or even use her hands to play with glitter. Theres no such thing as too much. The next time julianna gets a cold or any infection, her body will be too weak to fight it off. What did doctors tell you are likely to happen if she gets another cold. She will most likely die if she gets another cold. Are you okay . Julian thats doctors presented her parents with two devastating options julian that could die at home in her Pink Princess room made comfortable, surrounded by family, or she could go to the hospital where treatment likely couldnt save her, or even if it did, she would likely have a terrible quality of life. Everyone told us there is no right answer. So michelle and steve asked julianna something almost no parent could even fathom. When she was just 4 years old, they asked her what she wanted to do, go to the hospital or go to heaven . You blogged about it. Lets take a look. Me, julianna if you get sick again do you want to go to the hospital or stay home. Julianna, not the hospital. Me, even if that means you will go to heaven if you stay home . Julianna, yes. Me, and you know that mommy and daddy wont come with you right away. You will go by yourself first. Julianna, dont worry, god will take care of me. Me, and if you go to the hospital, it may help you get better and let you come home again and spend more time with us. I need to make sure you understand that. Hospital may allow you to have more time with mommy and daddy. Julianna, i understand. She told her parents she hated the hospital, especially a procedure called naso tracheal suction. You stick it up past tdown te nose, past the throat as deep as you can go and and start suctioning. If it was a choice between me and one of the other tech, she would ask me. Could you do that again . If i had to, i could. Do you think it would save her life to do it again . I dont think so. Steve and diana say theyll honor their daughters wishes to die at home instead of go to the hospital. Some parents wouldnt have consulted a child so young. You asked your daughter at the age of 4, what do you think, what should we do . Julianna had to go through hundreds of rounds of nasotracheal suctioning. She know what is that is. So i think she has a right. I think she has a say. Juliann as daughter tells cnn shes an exceptionally wise 5yearold and they support her parents decision to carry out her wishes. For now, shes enjoying her life with her parent, her big brother alex let it go cant hold it back anymore let it go and her princesses. Are elsa and ana, are they cousins . Ier that. Sisters.

There was a massive manhunt after he was found shot to death in a wooded area. He radioed Police Headquarters a short time earlier saying he was chasing three suspects. A Law Enforcement official says reports by the fbi and the medical Examiners Officer point to suicide. For the First Time Since 1949, the leaders of taiwan and china are set to meet on saturday in singapore. Taiwans Central News Agency reports taiwanese president and his counterpart will discuss peace. Beijing considers it a breakaway province and has threatened force should taiwan declare independence. Matt rivers following this for us from hong kong. He joins us now live. And matt, it seems this meeting has as much to do with an upcoming election in taiwan as it does trying to improve relations between taipei and beijing. Thats right, timing is everything. And lets start with those National Elections. There are scheduled to be held next january. And many people are speculating that the party that is currently in power in taipei is using the timing of this meeting to hopefully bolster its chances at winning the general election next year. They would hope that by strengthening ties between taipei and beijing, specifically economic ties as it has done over the past eight years or so since that party has been in power, that could further improve the taiwanese economy. And as we know, politics 101. When the economy does well generally speak, the incumbent party. They would much rather deal with the Current Administration thats in power. The opposition power thats going up against the incumbent party. They would rather not deal, as you mentioned, with a sovereign country, not something that beijing is willing to accept, even threatening the use of force. Sit clear at this point who made the first move here and what is expected to come of this meeting . Taiwanese officials told cnn a little bit earlier, the Current Administration in taiwan that they first made the pitch. It wasnt until recently 245 china agreesed to the highlevel meeting only if it took place in a thirdparty country and that brings us to where we are right now. So far details have been relatively scarce. Theres no binding experience that comes oit of it. Theres certainly an historic meeting that takes place. What comes out of it remains to be seen. Justin trudeau will be sworn in as canadas 23rd Prime Minister in the coming hours. The 43yearold father of three and his liberal party won majority two weeks ago, ousting Stephen Harpers conservatives. Mr. Trudeau is the son of the late trudeau who was Prime Minister. His not nearly as good looking cabinet will also be sworn in.

Hey, john, yeah, this is a fascinating deal with john stewart. He said it was such a demanding show, and thats partly what makes this new deal different. It was a fouryear production deal with hbo which is owned by the Media Company tienl warner. Hell be able to do a viariety f he wants to. It will start with short form Digital Content. So what does that mean . It means hell be able to weigh in, hell be able to comment on Current Events and whatever is going on in the world with two ofiveminute long web videos that hell develop and write that he might narrate. But might not actually appear on camera for. You can imagine a video that john stewart makes about a debate, he writes it, scripts it, records the audio for it but animation appears in order to tell the story. Hes working with a cloud graphings company in order to create these kinds of web videos. And theyll go online on hbos apps. They might not ever appear on hbos television channel, but instead theyll appear on the apps. Its as if he conquered one media. He conquered television.

And the latest effort to legalization Recreational Marijuana in the midwest u. S. Goes up in smoke. The the second hour of newsroom l. A. Begins now. Well start with a race for the white house and a new poll shows the dead heat between a top democrat and republican if the election were held today. Hill clinton and ben carson are tied at 47 each. Donald trump is back on the attack after losing his frontrunner status. Ben carson is tightening his grip on frontrunner status. 25 of gop view ben carson. Our strength is in our unity and we need to stop listening to the purveyors of division who are trying to make us think theres a war going on with everything. Taken together, the two outsiders dominate the field. Draws 52 support. If you add ben and myself, were beating everybody by a lot. I continue to keep doing what ive been doing. Not to be outdone, trump celebrated his own book release today and took a swipe at the man on top of the polls. Hes a different kind of a person. My book is very hard hitting. You look at ben, hes very weak on immigration and he wants to get rid of medicare. Trump predicted jeb bush doesnt have what it takes to win the white house. Can jeb make a comeback . I think its very hard. And said its time for some of his gop opponents to give up the fight. If theyre at 0 or 1 or 2 , they should get out. With the candidates at odds with each other on how to move forward, president obama is mocking the entire field. If you cant handle those guys, you know, then i dont think the chinese and the russians are going to be too worried about you. While trump complains, its the democrats that have it easy. Hillary clinton . No tough questions. Why didnt they ask about bill. Why didnt they ask about all the different things. Hillary had only softballs all night long. It was like this here, hillary, hit this one over the park. Hell be in New Hampshire where hes filing his paper work where hell appear officially on the ballot. Joining me now, cnn political commentator also contributing editor for atlantic media. So i guess if we wanted to know how donald trump would deal with no longer being the frontrunner and coming in at number two, we now know. He doesnt deal with this very well. This is so crucial that hes not a winner. If hes not a winner, hes got some problems. His attacks on ben carson have been really scattered. First he attacked hids religion, which i thought was bizarre and offensive. Now he kind of mentioned that carson is weak on immigration and mentioned the medicare comment. He seemed to be throwing out a whole bunch of stuff. This is the way donald trump is. He kind of improvises. Its difficult to see what the actual strategy is in some of this stuff. Up with of the attractions to many of his supporters is heres a guy who knows how to win. Heres a guy who knows how to do the deal. Hes popular, hes been in this race and hes out front and hes the guy who everyone should be following because hes the number one guy. The number one guy suddenly becomes the number two guy, what sort of problems does that present for him Going Forward . Does he lose his entire reason you know, entire appeal of his campaign . Well, he has a base of voters. And i think they are noncollege educated but more secular voters. Carson is doing well with the van jell calls. The same group of supporters, people who are economically frustrated. I think trump still right now has a base of those supporters. You mention hes gone after carson as being a little bit scattered. A little soft, i guess, if you can compare to the ore attacks. Tlfrp comments that he made to bloomberg, which i thought were quite interesting. Listen to this. I think hes a highly overrated person. I called him a lightweight. I think h hes a lightweight. I hope im wrong about that. Guys like you and im not referring specifically to you. You a little bit, to be honesting but i watched somebody on joes show this morn, hes fawning off them. He says how handsome he is. I dont know. I think im better looking than he is. Am i better looking than him . Yeah, this is kind of classic donald trump. When does this insult throwing start to wear then . I dont know. Hes been doing it since hes entered the race several months ago. Although hes dropped a little bit, you know people know that his schtick ises like this right now. To me, the bigger story is why isnt rubio rising in the polls more given the fact that the republican elites have really been fawning all over him, especially since that debate performance. Whats striking is you look at the National Polls and even the polls in the early states, you still see a disconnect between a political elite talk about rubio now as the frontrunner and a guy who is way behind in the polls. Everyone says how huge he is. The huge disconnect between donors and ordinary Republican Voters who still are sticking with trump and carson, despite the fact that the republican accomplishment thinks the idea of nominating either one of these guys is insane. The establishment, they were behind for a while, jeb bush, continually mocked by trump. Trump really got under his stin. Hes rebooted his campaign. Hes trying to get fired up. He did an interview with cnn and hes trying to hit back to trump. Listen to what he had to say earlier with us. Hes run for president twice and quit. And ive run for governor in the biggest swing state and won twice. I know how to win. Ive done it. I actually know how to govern, which is going to be an attribute when we get closer to the election. So for the record, for donald trump, youre not quitting . No. I mean, do we have to talk about donald trump . No, i not quitting. The sad fact is, yes, we do. The guy continues to suck out the oxygen. Is it almost too late to make that connection to voters . Hes gone from frontrunner status. Thats not budging pretty much nationally. Is he out of time . I think its pretty close. They put money into ads that were specifically designed to bring him up in the polls. His message is wrong for where the Republican Party is now. No matter what he says hes mr. Establishment. His father was president , his brother was president. I really think hes not been able to tap into where prune voters are right now. Hes a bad politician. He doesnt have a good message. If his name were not jeb bush and he had not been able to raise huge sums of money based on his father and brothers kind of donor network, we would never be talking about him in the first place. Its an incredible sense of entitlement that he could essentially raise money off his father and brother. And now it could be over fairly soon. Thanks. We move on now. The clues are still not adding up to one single explanation. Russia says the tail was found about three miles from the rest of the debris. That could further show the plane broke apart in midair. A newspaper report that somebody on the back of the plane showed trauma from an explosion. But investigators say they found no trace of an explosive device in the wreckage. Lets get more now, nic robe robertson live from st. Petersburg. Lets get into these reports in the mugs media, which have come out in the last couple of hours about the bodies. Whoo that might mean in terms of an explanation to the crash. This the cockpit reporter, the unexpected sound that caused an event that caused the plane to go down rapidly before the air crew could issue an emergency seeps to be center ises on one of two things. Either a bomb onboard or that the tail section that had been nit a prior crash that had been potentially graphed as recently as may this year shows a potential for that tale fin to repair, not to appear as solid as it had been mechanically assessed, perhaps the tail of the aircraft broke off. They hering from their sources that the types of injuries that the passengers received in this aircraft fall into roughly two cat gores. Those in front have a burn and trauma injuries, they say, indicative offaling from the sky. Those in the back of the aircraft have explosionive injuries, injuries that have shows that there are metal fragments impacted in their bodies. Now, we also heard from the task news agency in russia that states the test from the explosive residue have come back negative. And the bodies that have been tested as of earlier yesterday, have also come back showing no indications of explosive impact on those bodies. Russian officials here at the moment caution that we really have to wait until we get to the end of the investigation before conclusions can be drawn. Friendsic experts are working with those bodies here. Its reasonable in the way the sources operate, journalists inside russia potentially the st. Petersburg newspaper has close sources to the forensic teams doing the investigation here. But it really is conjecture at this stage. But we can see the way the Russian Media is reporting this story. These are the two lines of thought. All of this just speculation for the families, the victims of this flight, not easy for them to be going through all of this. Thank you. And the fiery air crash on saturday has some similarities with another air disaster. This one off the coast of long island, new york, in 1996. We have more on the similar circumstances and the rumors vournding most tragedies. Reporter the metro jet crash in egypt, killing all 224 onboard feels eerily familiar to another major disaster, the 1996 explosion of twa flight 800 off long island. Peter golds was one of the chief ntsb investigators of that disaster. Like the metro jet crash, satellite imagery captured a midair heat signature. We had that same occurrence at twa flight 800, a satellite picked up the signature and it indicated, it confirmed for us what eyewitnesses had seen, that there was a fire ball. But. But it didnt explain why. It was simply a clue. Also shared between the two disasters, unexplained split second sounds on the flight data recorders before they stopped recording. The similarities leave gultz to believe a possible rupture in the fuel tank, which caused the twa crash may also be to blame in the russian plane disaster. Investigators found much of the main debris field close together, but three miles away was the tail section. That holds another clue. Possible structural failure in. In november 2001, the air bus tail hit the tarmac on landing. The plane was repaired, but the clear break from the rest of the debr debris raises this possibility. It could have been a structural failure of the plane that ruptured the fuel tanks. So the explosion could have been coming after whatever the event that initiated the breakup. Flight tracking data shows the plane did slow down significantly before the crash, but many outside experts discount a stall. A stall can prove disastrous, like this one in 2013. The 747 kwar goe plane left bagram air face in afghanistan. It stalled and crashed shortly after takeoff, killing all seven americans onboard. The heat signature clue could also signal some sort of fire damage in the cargo hol. In 1996, value jet flight 592 took off with emergency oxygen generators improperly stored that caused a fire and it crashed. It could have been something going on in the cargo hold. We dont know what they were carrying. Investigators will look at those suspects. Until they dismiss them, its going to be a mystery. The result is that the flying public grows more concerned and also there are growing conspiracy theories. John . Kyung, thank you. Thank you.

[ applause ] voting in ohio on tuesday, rejecting legalized pot for recreational and medical use. Details from stephanie elam. Reporter john, voters in ohio decided to pass on legalizing marijuana. This was the first time in the country voters had the chance to legalize medical and Recreational Marijuana use at the same time. Called issue three on the ballot, it would have been commercial growing rights to just ten predetermined farms owned by investors backing the campaign to legalize the crash crop. Tv and music shart nick leshay, frosty rucker, even even president william tafts great, great grand nephews were all poised to cash in if the amendment passed. But the initiative had an uphill battle with some ohioans who support legalization saying issue 3 wasnt the way to go since it would line the pockets of so few. There was also issue 2 on the ballot, an antimonopoly countermeasure specifically designed to defeat issue 3. Ohio would have been the fifth state to legalize Recreational Marijuana and the 24th to legalize medical marijuana. Former facebook president shawn parker is backing an initiative that would make marijuana legal for Recreational Use legal for 21 and older.

Takata has ben hit with a massive fine for failing to acknowledge air bag problems. The auto parts maker was fined 70 million and could face an ald decisional 130 million penalty if it fails to adhere to safety measures. They must also stop selling components similar to those that caused malfunctions. They were linked to seven dpets in the United States, one in malaysia and were the subject of huge recalls. Regulators warned that this is far from the end of their legal problems. This is just one of many fines that u. S. Regular layer tos have already asked takata to play. Earlier in the year, they were slapped with 14,000 a day. Theyre also under investigation by the u. S. Justice department. More fines could come there and the company is em broimed in a number of private lawsuits, some of which have already been settleding but none of this is good news for the company. Honda was takat as biggest cust my. They fired the maker. Any other news . Honda did dump the company. They said they expect their suppliers to can act with integrity at all times and were deeply troubled by this apparent behavior by one of our suppliers. The question i want to raise here is that takata have made lots of auto parts through the years, but the big thing that consumers and auto makers now face is whether or not they still feel safe ewing takat as air bags. Eight deaths, this is no small number. Building that confidence will take some time. This is a company which has a lot of trouble, a lot of problems still to come. Thank you for being with us.

For the First Time Since chinas sil war ended 66 years ago, chie china and taiwan will hold talks. It seems like it has as much to do with june coming election in taiwan than in improving relations. Lets start with the National Election you mentioned, set for next zblan taiwan. The party currently in power in taiwan is speculated it sees a political opportunity here by setting up this meeting with president xxi. Theyre hoping that will improve the partys chances of winning what is expected to be a tight general election come next january. If economic ties specifically can be improved between taiwan and between the mainland, then it would be the hope in the short term the economy would improve and therefore bolster the current ruling partys chances of rining an election, because when the economy is good, often times the votes vol low. As far as beijing is concerned, it has a stake in which Party Controls this country. The Opposition Party in next years elections has openly stated that it is far less open to negotiating with beijing with some of those Party Members even openly advocating for taiwan to become an entirely separate sovereign nation independent of mainland china. Beijing has threatened using force to stop that from happening. So the hope is they wouldnt even have to go that far. And you see this is all about in some ways beijing hoping to improve the economy in taiwan, keeping some friendly allies there in power. On the island. But theres also the potential blowback as well, because many in taiwan just simply dont want china to be the mainland, at least, beijing to be meddling in politics there. Thats absolutely right. Theres a very real suspicious that they dont want to become, lets say, another version of hong kong, which is, you know, basically ruled by china. They certainly do not want that. There were large protests. A Student Group took over the legislature in taipei for about a month, protesting what they called an unfair trade deal that was being negotiated between beijing and between taipei. The Opposition Party doing very, very well with Many Political experts even coming close to saying they could win next years elections, ousting the Current Party leadership. So there is certainly evidence of many, many taiwanese people not being very much in favor of closer ties with beijing. So whether this work moves out politically for the Current Party in power in taiwan, its kind of a gamble. President mao, of course, this will be his last term. Trying to set it up so the nationals can remain in power, but theyre way behind. Justin trudeau will be sworn in as canadas 23rd Prime Minister in the coming hours.

Parts of yemen have been deluged after a rare Tropical Cyclone hit on tuesday. The storm dumped at least a years worth of rain in some areas. Mud slides and flash flooding have been a major threat in the countrys dry rugged terrain. A video here reportedly showed people trying to rescue someone stuck in a car. Heavy fog is blaming parts of the United States as well as europe. We have more on soupty have beens for a few Million People right now. Indeed, its going to be quite a lot of people, take a look at this shot. Its atlanta. Again, normally you would be able to see the heights of the sky scrapers we have, but the fog cuts it off right through there so you cant see the rest of the building 37 not only is atlanta affected, but we have a lot of cities dealing with the fog. This is actually tuesday morning. Theres two different colors here. A very bright white color across southern georgia. Those are clouds. But the lighter color, more of a grayish tone, that is actually fog. You can see quite a huge swath of area that had to deal with fog in the morning. Its really sad in some spots even through the early afternoon. Wednesday and thursday, not going to be much different, except this time it spreads out a little more. Not only will it be cities like atlanta, but nashville, memphis, st. Louis. As we transition into thursday, new cities, washington, d. C. , raleigh, even new york will be dealing with it. And its not just the United States. Sunday and monday, london had an enormous amount of delays and cancellations due to the fog. Were going to be dealing with a similar scenario. Again youre seeing the rainmaking system, the very bright white clouds. But this grayish area that you can see stretching autothe way back to parts of russia, that would be the fog. And again, theyre going to go through similar scenarios on both wednesday and thursday. Were talking about copenhagen, almost down to zero kilometers visibility. Cities like manchester, leads, malmo, hamburg, belfast, amsterdam, brussels, a lot of these cities going to be dealing with increedably low visibilities out there. Typically when we have the grassy area, it rains and becomes a saturated surface. The arm temperatures eventually begin to evaporate up and that helps create some of the fog that just kind of sits down at the surface. One other thing thing to note is this different pattern were stuck in. Again, weve got the warm, moist area sitting over much of the eastern half of the country. Weve got the gulf moisture coming in, in addition to the areas its already rained. Weve got the rain, but much cooler weather out along the west coast. Its dumped a lot of snow across the Sierra Nevadas just in time for the ski resorts to open up. Allison, thank you. That wet and wild winter is all fwauz of an el nino weather pattern system. Some saying it could be a godzilla el nino. Crews have been scrambling to clean up some roads hit by some recent storms. We get all the details on this. L. A.

County called in the heavy equipment to clear roads, bridges. Theyre fighting water with water to clear huge milk shakes of muck in storm drains. Our charge this year is to really emphasize and increase awareness. Theyre touring danger zones, bracing for el nino. What we can do a better job at, we can all prepare and take care of each other to minimize losses and damages. Heres the latest National Weather service el nino warning.

Downing of the russian passenger plane is growing. New evidence shows the tail may have broken off in midair. Plus, its one for the record books, the president s of china and taiwan have not had a meeting in Miles Per Hour 60 years but they will meet this weekend, and trump is on the attack calling on the republican rivals to drop out of the race. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and around the world. Im Rosemary Church. Thank you for joining us. This is cnn newsroom. And we begin in the Sinai Peninsula where investigators are finishing up their search. Russian state media say the tail is sitting three miles from the rest of the debris, possibly an indication the plane came apart midair. The u. S. Embassy in cairo is warning its employees to stay away from the Sinai Peninsula as a cautionary measure. Meanwhile, representatives from the airline said there was no hint that the plane was in trouble until after it crashed. The plane, air bus a 320 is a reliable plane with Protection Systems that wont let the plane to go into overload, even if there were major errors in the pilots control equipment. In the pilot doesnt report any faults on the plane, all that will be carried out is routine maintenance checks. Up until the wreck happened, we were not received any reports or sos calls. Now the focus is turning to the black boxes. Maybe those can resolve the issues investigators keep turning up. Nick robertson has more. Reporter another tough day for the families of victims. The process of identifying the bodies continues. What they are hearing in Russian Media at the moment, two different versions of potentially what killed their loved ones. Did the plane break apart in the air because the tail section fell off because of a faulty repair, or was it because of a bomb on board. A st. Petersburg newspaper, widely respected, reports that the injuries fall into two categories. Those in the front of the aircraft, they say have burns and trauma type injuries indicative of falling from the sky. Those at the rear have explosive trauma injuries, pieces of metal fragment in the bodies. Their quoting their sources, and the forensic teams are examining the bodies here, the potential there for more information being provided. The task state news agency says, however, what they understand from their sources is that theres been no explosive residue found on the bodies and no indication of explosive damage to the bodies. So what people are hearing in russian and what will be painful for the families right now is not knowing precisely what brought down that aircraft. Two different possibilities. And most experts are casting doubt on claims by isis that it brought down the metro jet plane. The terror groups affiliate in egypt has been active as ian lee reports. Reporter it may be isiss least known affiliate, but the terror group, sinai branch is deadly and sophisticated. Here the aftermath of an army attack check point. In all, theyve killed hundreds in drive by shootings and suicide attacks. Those survivors captured are brutally executed, including an Oil Field Worker beheaded in august. Isis in egypt rose from the chaos and unleashed their wave of violence in 2013, not just in egypt, sinai region but across the country. The military and police carry out operations to hunt the militants down. Its been an operation for two years. And i dont think anybody, including within the Egyptian Military thinks theyre suddenly going to disappear. It was late last year the terror group with numbers estimated in the low hundreds pledged allegiance to the isis leader. Their weapons mainly coming from libya, another country rocked by instability and an isis presence. Weve seen them target convoys with remote detonated bombs while suicide bombers hit outposts and military bases. The two most sophisticated weapons in their arsenal include russian made antitank missiles used in targeting tanks and a boat in the mediterranean. And shoulder launch surface to air missiles seen here, taking down an egyptian helicopter. Analysts say what they dont posse possess are sophisticated missiles to take a jet from 30,000 feet like the one that crashed killing 224 people on board. Isis has claimed responsibility, but that doesnt mean anything because, indeed, it could be part of psychological warfare. It has been played down saying its more likely mechanical failure. Ian lee, cairo. Joining me to talk more about it is cnn safety analyst, david soucie. He is also a former faa safety inspector. Thank you for being with us. The cause of this crash appears to be boiling down to a catastrophic Maintenance Issue or a bomb. Whats your sense now of what have may caused the russian plane to crash in the sinai . Its very difficult at this point to make the distinction between the two. Even narrowing it to those two is dangerous in an accident investigation. But between the two, im leaning more toward a mechanical failure or rupture of the frame hits than i am a bomb because the infrared flesh that theyre reporting, the way that it came across and at the point of flight that it came across would indicate the plane came apart and slowed and then went down forward. Typically in a bomb, the aircraft might accelerate. So theres still a lot to be looked at and determined, but thats the way that im leaning at this point. But theyre close. Another piece of information thats coming out, the tail of the plane was found separated from the rest of the body of the plane, five kilometers away, in fact, the largest piece of debris to be found. What does that tell you . Well, it must have been at a High Altitude when the tail came off which would be consistent with what were learning from radar 24 and from this flash point, when the flash occurred. That would make sense that the tail came off separately. Another thing that supports that argument is the fact that there isnt really any burn residue thats obvious on the pictures. There may be if you look at it more closely, but it doesnt appear to be what you might see as burn residue which tells us the tail may have come off before the explosion which would be consistent with a fuselage rupture. An interestingly, too, the inspection on the ground is going to be wrapped up wednesday. Are you surprised that they are finishing up so early, and i wanted to get your assessment of how theyve been running the investigation, the egyptians and the russians. Im pretty pleased about the egyptians and russians and how theyre working together. They have a Good Relationship and the investigators seem to be working well together for how to move this along. I am a bit concerned that theyre out of there so quickly. Theres a lot of clues and things that are small in nature that need to be looked at. But you have this pressure of the fact that this is not exactly a stable environment there to be doing an investigation. Youd normally be able to have more time to do this, but theyre taking a lot of documentation and marking parts and getting that taken and photographed. Theyll probably do this, what we call a dj tall investigation. Theyll map it out in a digitj model and try to recreate it that. We also appreciate your analysis on this. Many thanks. Thank you, rosemary. And we move to asia and the president s of china and taiwan will hold talks in an historic meeting on saturday. Leaders of the two sides havent met since the end of chinas civil war in 1949. The meeting comes ahead of elections in taiwan, and matt rivers joins us with more on this meeting. Matt, who initiated the meeting and how much does it have to do with the upcoming general elections . Reporter we know that both sides have been in negotiations to have a meeting like this one for years now. We spoke with officials close to the Current Administration in d taiwan earlier today, and they said negotiations to have this kind of meeting have been ongoing for two years. It was recently the chinese countered and said they were open to this kind of meeting as long as it was held in a third party country, a country that is neutral. Thats where we are right now. As for how much of it has to do with Upcoming Elections you mentioned, you would not be surprised to know, no one has gone on the record with that, but you would not be off base in speculating that perhaps the ruling party in taiwan is hoping to capitalize off of this historic, symbolic meeting between these two leaders. The general election is about four months away. Its going to be held next january, and as of right now, poll numbers are not looking very good for the Current Party that is in power, and so it certainly wouldnt be off base to put out the idea that this Current Party that is currently in charge in taiwan could be hoping to capitalize, at least politically on this upcoming meeting. And matt, its one thing to have a meeting like this. But whats expected to come out of it . As of now, both sides through their respective state media have said there will be no binding agreements that will come out of this meeting. Nothing will be signed. There wont be any longlasting accords. They have just said theyll be talking about peace, generally speaking. And so whether there will be anything that we can put our finger on and say this is a concrete item that has come out of this meeting, i think wouldnt be too likely. That said, the just symbolic nature of this meeting makes it important in and of itself, even if nothing comes out of it. The fact that it is just happening is truly historic. Yes. It certainly is. Matt rivers joining us there with the latest details. We appreciate that. Turning to the United States now, authorities are expected to announce the death of a Police Officer in fox lake, illinois back in september was a suicide. Police launched a massive man hunt after the lieutenant was found shot to death in a wooded area. He had radioed Police Head Quarters a short time earlier saying he was chasing three suspects. A Law Enforcement official says reports by the fbi and the medical Examiners Office point to decide. Donald trump no longer the republican front runner is back on the attack.

Donald trump says he plans to start Running Campaign ads in iowa, and south carolina. He was in new york on monday promoting his new box, cripples america. Now that hes trailing ben carson, hes on the offensive. He called ben carson low energy, marco rubio sweaty, and said jeb bush should drop out of the race. Jeb bush is a stiff. He doesnt have a chance. He ought to do what walker did. He ought to drop out . Absolutely. The money isnt going to do it and hes been branded as a low energy person. By who . I dont know. I cant imagine. Jeb is not a man thats going to make it. Hes wasting his time and a lot of money. With me now is an cnn political commentator. As we just heard, donald trump is calling for jeb bush and other low polling candidates to drop out of the president ial race. Whats your reaction is that and how do you think Republican Voters are likely to his call to essentially eliminate the competition . Well, listen. This is the first time trump has been losing in consistent polls. Hes going to continue to throw hay makers because thats what he does. He needs to bring the attention pack to him. He had a lackluster debate last week where it wasnt all about donald trump. So donald trump is good at making it all about donald trump. By making outrageous statements like this and saying hey, listen, you need to give up and let the rest of us duke it out, it makes news. Were talking about it now, and the more that trump is in the news, the more he is its gratifying for him. Thats what his whole campaign has been about. Hes probably gotten about 50 million in media. He hasnt had to run a campaign ad because of statements like that. No one is taking that seriously. We are 14 weeks from the first time anyone casts a vote. For someone like jeb bush who has tens of millions of dollars still in his campaign coffers, it would be ridiculous for him to drop out now. Lets listen to what jeb bush had to say in his interview. As it relate to donald, hes run for president twice, and quit, and ive run for governor in the biggest swing state and won twice. I know how to win. Ive done it. I actually know how to govern which is going to be an attribute when we get closest to the election. So for the record, for druond trump, youre not quitting. Do we have to talk about donald trump . Hes entertaining and says funny things in the breaks, but in the debate, but im running for president of the United States, and its a serious endeavor. I do it with joy. Theres a lot of fun parts of it for sure. All right. So jeb bush saying hes not dropping out, but he doesnt appear 100 committed to this. He keeps talking about his experience as governor. When the voters have clearly turned their backs on political insiders. What does he need to do to turn things around for himself . What would your advice bo b to him . Listen, jeb bush has dug himself into a hole. I think hes been completely blind sided by the trump factor. When jeb bush entered the race, he didnt expect to be running against someone like donald trump and his big personality. When you hear jeb bush say im having fun and this is joyous for me, no one buys that. Did you see his body language . Hes not having fun. The viewers do not the voters do not feel connected to him. Hes having a tough time connecting with voters which is why hes polled in Single Digits on top of the fact that theres the aspect of this of being part of the bush dynasty. This is the wrong climate for jeb bush to run in. I dont know if he can turn it around. Hes going to fight tooth and nail. Hes establishment. He has money behindme him. Ultimately, i dont see how he turns it around. He doesnt present well and the voters if they have not connected with him by now, i dont see how hay do moving forward, and if he continues to do interviews like that, where he has cooler things he could do rather than run for president , the voters look at that and say i dont think so, so i think jeb bush has a really tough hill to climb to turn this around to get out of the bottom of the barrel here for him in the polls, but theres 14 weeks. Anything can happen. And i wanted to quickly ask you this. A new nbc news wall street journal poll shows if an election were held right now, Hillary Clinton would beat all the republican can candidates except ben carson. How will the republican machine respond to this given hes the candidate to go toe to toe with clinton. We are so far away from a National Election head to head that those polls are really insignificant. At this point last cycle, i believe hermann cain was winning nationally, and we saw what happened to him. Like i said before, a week is an eternity in politics. Were over a year out from the general election. So the fact that ben carson is leading Hillary Clinton now, in two weeks it could be someone else. So we dont take too much stock in those polls at this point. Always great to get your political analysis. Appreciate it. My pleasure. Tuesday was election day in several u. S. States. Heres a break down of a new of them. In kentucky, matt bevan was elected governor. He made headlines last year when he ran against Mitch Mcconnell and lost. He beat the Kentucky Attorney general on tuesday. This is a great night for the Republican Party and the state of kentucky. Im also grateful for the fact that even more importantly, this is a great night for conservatives in the state of kentucky. And in mississippi, phil bryant coasted to victory. His opponent was robert gray, a truck driver. Ohio has said no to legalizing marijuana. Voters rejected a ballot measure that would have allowed a limited number of farms to grow the plants. The Controversial Initiative was backed by a host of investors, including pop star, nick lachey. Ohio is my home. Im proud to be part of a movement thats going to reinvigorate our community and improve the safety of our communities. Earlier i asked the Communications Director whether this initiative could create a cartel. Essentially it proposing a system in which there are just a limited number of producers, and thats something for each state to decide when it comes to what type of system they have. Every state has a different type of system for alcohol, and some states have chosen to allow liquor and beer to be sold in grocery stores. Other states dont allow that, and similarly, we have a state considering only allowing marijuana to be grown by ten particular businesses. Its really a question of what the state wants, but quite frankly, we would say that it should be treated more like alcohol and there should be Competition Among producers and we should ensure that only the best ones are the ones that are able to operate and produce the products that ohio residents will be able to access. Colorado legalized Recreational Marijuana in 2012 through a ballot measure. In houston texas, voters repealed a law to protect lesbian, gay, and transgender people from discrimination. They passed a law last year and conservative activists spent millions trying to get rid of it. When ad warned it would allow, quote, troubled men to go into womens public bathrooms, showers, and rocker rooms. Supporters of the law called that fear mongering against transgender men and women. The citys mayor spoke out after the vote. Ive been an activist for more than 40 years. I have stood here in houston four times with people for getting the opportunity to vote on my rights. No ones rights should be subject to a popular vote. [ applause ] that woman is an openly gay mayor who called out what she said was a calculated campaign by the right wing.

Russian state media reports that the tail of metro jet flight 9268 was found five kilometers from the rest of the wreckage in the Sinai Peninsula which could be further evidence the plane came apart in midair. Meanwhile, they insist the plane was fully repaired after the tail was damaged back in 2001. These are live pictures in st. Peterberg. The flowers grow by the minute. Also in egypt, at least three policemen are dead after an explosion outside a Police Officers club. Thats according to staterun media. It happened in northern sinai on wednesday.

Right now two huge business stories are influencing tokyos nikkei which gained almost one and a third percent on wednesday. Japan post holdings, surged as much as 26 during the market debut on wednesday. It was japans biggest initial Public Offering of the year, and plenty of investors rushed to get a piece of it. While another japanese company, takata is struggling after selling faulty air bags. The stock dropped more than 13 . Will ripley is in japan covering the initial Public Offering and we also are in hong kong covering a ctakatas trouble. How will the company cope under this massive fine . Rosemary. This is one of many cash penalties that they face. The company has been forced to pay fines in the u. S. Regulators slapped a fine on them earlier this year on the company and its currently being investigated by the u. S. Department. All of this has been terrible for takatas bottom line. The company has posted losses. That makes it difficult to pay the fines Going Forward. Today the stock was down as much as 20 . It gained a little bit back at the end of the day, but overall, the company is still down for the year. Yeah, and its worth noting that honda has now sacked takata. Lets talk about that as well as what the company is doing to try to correct all the problems with it faulty air bags. Yes. Honda is one of takatas biggest customers. Losing that business isnt great for the company. Honda issued a statement saying it expects its suppliers to act with integrity at all times and we are deeply troubled by this behavior by one of our suppliers. Going forward, auto makers and consumers will have to think about whether or not theyre ready to use these air bags again. Rebuilding that confidence will take quite a bit of time. All right. Good to talk with you, sophia. I want to turn to will ripley now who is governoring Japan Post Holdings. Will, this was a very successful stock market debut. Talk to us about that. 19 increase there. Whats the back story to this and what impact will it have on japans economy . Yeah. As far as day one goes, this is truly a success for the Retail Investors, the japanese government was targeting. 80 of the japan post ipo was for the japanese and 20 was allocated for foreign investors. Its a place where people drop off their mail at these red boxes but its more than that. Its also a place where people deposit their money. Its one of japans largest banks and its also one of japans largest insurance providers, the largest in some measures. This is a big part of everyones lives. There are 24,000 branches like this one thats about to close. There are customers in here, and theyre getting their mail. Theyre also using the atm. They could purchase insurance in this building here. So for people to be able to buy a stock in japan post, theyre viewing this as an asset. Something that is reliable and will turn a profit for many years to come, and given that people invest anywhere from 12 to 18 per u. S. Share, depending on which company they invest in. All of those investors saw gains up as high as 33 for the insurance company. The question moving forward will be can the momentum continue, and will people get that return on their investment theyre hoping for. Japanese government hoping this will help stimulate the economy and other will spend money in other ways to boost the economy. Presumably, thats whats going to happen. What are analysts saying about that . Reporter well, analysts say that theyre going to have to look closely at the japan post performance moving forward. Keep in mind, what investors want is a return on their investment, and revenue predictions for this up coming year, the predictions are down. The performance of the company is going to be certainly something in clear focus, but, again, this is an established commodity. This is an established brand in japan. This is something that people use every day in multiple aspects of their lives. Its viewed as a reliable investment. Analysts seem to think that moving forward, certainly they dont expect double digit gains every day. They expect stable growth which is what Retail Investors in japan are looking for.

Alison is here to talk to us about this. This is extense i. Its going to affect a Million People. Sunday and monday, we had such bad fog in london, it delayed flights. It may not be that bad in london, but were expecting bad fog in many areas. Lets take a look at where well see some of the worst fog. I guess well take a look in just a minute. But we do expect to have some fog pretty bad in parts of the southeast. Now, this was actually on tuesday. Now, the bright white color that you can see in here, this is actually clouds, but the darker, more of a gray color, that is the fog. Thats how widespread the fog was across much of this region. As we transition into wednesday and thursday, were still going to continue to see some bad fog. Cities like st. Louis, chicago, atlanta, charlotte, and much of the midwest are going to be dealing with fog around one mile visibility or less. Then as we transition to thursdays, same thing but a few different cities. Now we factor in new york, washington and raleigh. Europe, youre going to be dealing with a similar scenario. This was tuesday. You can see the brighter white to the west, but the gray engulfing most of france into russia was dealing with some fog. Take a look at some of these numbers. Wednesday and thursday, looking at cities like copenhagen, hamburg, germany, even around zurich could be dealing with heavy fog on wednesday and thursday. Part of the reason for this is a lot of these areas have had a saturated surface. When it rains, you get water that comes down, and then at night the clear skies. That helps the heat move away. The temperature comes down closer to your dew point temperature and that helps to create some of the radiation fog weve been seeing in a lot of these areas, especially for several hours in the morning. We have all of that gulf moisture coming into parts of the southeast and above average temperatures. Out of the west, a different story. Cooler temperatures and coolest of the season for many of those areas. One good thing that has come out of it is the rain in parts of much needed california where theyve been ravaged by wild fires for much of the year. Starting to get rain and snow pack. Take a look at the last couple years. We have seen below average snow pack in the Sierra Nevada mountains for years. 2015, low, but that will start to change as we go into the rest of the year. Again, a lot of those areas have already picked up over a foot of snow. The good news is for a lot of the ski resorts along the west coast, theyre off to a better start this year than the last couple of years. As long as the skiers are happy. Thank you, allison. Rising sea levels are a major concern for scientists and environmentalists, but now a new nasa study is raising questions about a potential source of the problem. Cnns Brandon Miller has more. Reporter we know that sea levels around the world are rising and current thinking is that part of that Sea Level Rise comes from melting ice in antarctica, but one recent study from nasa scientists says that may not be the case. Antarctica is a big place. Roughly the size of the u. S. And mexi mexico combined. As you might expect, changes in its ice are not uniform across the entire continent. Nearly all scientists agree that ice is being lost from the western part of antarctica and along its peninsula. On the eastern side, ice is being gained. Where the study is different is they measure that the gaining of ice along eastern antarctica is outpacing the loss on the western side. Whats behind this addition of ice . Snowfalls that became heavier around 10,000 years ago. The scientists know this by looking at ice core data. That would mean that antarctica is not the contributing to Sea Level Rise. Theres several things to consider. We are already observing the affects of sea level rice in places like miami, where high tides are inundating parts of the city. Also, even though this gain of ice has been occurring for thousands of years, it may not stay. The increasing rate of lost in western loss could outpace the gains in eastern antarctica. Theres still a lot to learn about how antarctica is reacting to climate change. Sea levels will continue to rise as it only makes up about 8 of the Sea Level Rise weve observed.

New clues, warnings, and now violence in the sinai as investigators try to piece together what happened to a doomed russian airliner. Lashing out, donald trump, the former republican front runner for the white house calls on opponents to drop out, and the ugly truth, a social media star calls it quits on instagram. Her message to young women. Hello and welcome to our viewers here in the United States and all around the world. Im Rosemary Church, and this is cnn newsroom. We begin with new information on metro jet flight 9268. At least 33 bodies of victims from the crash have now been identified. That is according to russian state media. The first victim has been released to the family. Meanwhile, the investigation into the crash of metro jet flight 9268 and the inconsistent clues arent adding up. A st. Petersburg newspaper reports that some bodies at the back of the plane showed trauma from an explosion, but investigators said there were no traces of an explosive device in the wreckage. Also media reports the tail was found three miles from the rest of the plane. That could show the plane broke apart in midair. For more on the investigation, we want to turn now to erin mclog lin who joins us. Erin, we understand the Ground Investigation will be wrapped up in egypt wednesday which has surprised many analysts. Whats the reason behind drawing this to such a sudden close . Can we assume theyve reached some sort of conclusion on what caused the crash, and what do we know so far . Reporter when it comes to what happened to flight 9268, its probably best not to assume anything. Egyptian authorities have been tight lipped when it comes to the details of the invest as well as the timetable for the investigation. What we do know has been coming in bits and pieces mainly from Russian Media sources, the latest from russian state media reporting the tail of the plane was found some three miles away from the rest of the wreckage. Thats potentially significant, because we know that in 2001, the same planes tail struck a runway in cairo requiring repairs, and some say if the repairs were done incorrectly could lead to problems down the line. If fact of the matter we simply dont know what cause third down plane to break apart in midair. Egyptian authorities urging people not to speculate. Egyptian president gave a number of at the same times to british media outlet. In the interviews he called reports that the plane came down the result of a pom or missile projection as speculation. He also called the isis claim of responsibility to be pure propaganda. We know that authorities are analyzing the socalled black boxes. The cockpit voice recorder as well as the flight data recorder. Those seen as critical to solving this mystery. No indication, though, as to when well get answers or any sort of transcripts from a that analysis. And erin, what are egyptian authorities doing in terms of security in the aftermath of this plane tragedy . Well, right now egyptian authorities telling us they have not increased security. When we arrived here last night, we saw no signs of increased security at the International Airport or in the resort itself. Interesting to note that earlier in the year there was an economic summit here. Dignitaries in attendance said they noticed increased security there. There were check points. They were checking vehicles. Tight security. We saw none of that when we arrived here last night. Egyptian authorities saying because theres no indication that the plane went down as a result of terrorism at the moment. The u. S. Embassy for it part putting out advice to u. S. Citizens not to travel to anywhere in the sinai until the investigation is complete. All right. Erin mclaughlin bringing us up to date in egypt. The firy air cash on saturday has similarities with another disaster. This one off the coast of long island, new york in 1996. We have more on the similar circumstance and rumors surrounding both tragedies. Reporter the metro jet crash in egypt killing all 224 on board feels familiar to another disaster, the 1996 explosion of a flight off long island. Like the metro jet crash, satellite imagery captured a midair heat significant. We had the same thing. It indicated and confirmed what eyewitnesss had seen, that there was a fire ball. Reporter but it didnt explain why. It was simply a clue. Also unexplained split second sound on the data recorders. It leads them to believe a possible cupturupture in the fu tank. Investigators found much of the main debris field close together, but three miles away was the tail section. Another clue. Possible structural failure. In november 2001, the air buss tail hit the tarmac. The plane was repaired. It could have been a structural failure of the plane that ruptured the fuel tanks so the explosion would have been coming after whatever the event that initiated the breakup. Reporter flight data recordings show the plane showed down. A stall can prove problems like this one in 2013. The 747 cargo plane left afghanistan. It stalled and crashed shortly after takeoff, killing all seven americans on board. The heat significant clue could also signal some sort of fire damage in the cargo hold. In 1996, value jet flight 592 took off with generators improperly stored that caused a crash. There could have been something going on in the cargo hold. We dont know what they were carrying. Investigators will look at all of those likely suspects. Until they start eliminating them, its going to be a mystery. Reporter cnn, los angeles. Well, volkswagens troubles just got bigger. Still reeling from the diesel emissions scandal, they now said they set fuel consumption figures too low when certifying some models. They say they regret the error and will begin discussing ways with the relevant authorities. In addition, u. S. Regulators say some porsche sus may have been rigged as well, but volkswagen disputes that claim. All right. Moving on now, and u. S. Regulators have hit japans Takata Corporation with a huge fine for selling millions of air bags with defects and failing to acknowledge the problem. Will ripley is in tokyo and has more. This is a problem that spans the globe. Whats takata doing about fixing it . Reporter well, takata has been struggling to keep up with the Replacement Parts needed to get all of these air bags fixed. Youre talking about 19 million air bags just in the United States affected by this recall. About 15 of them, 15 million of them, still need to be repaired, and some of the other several million that have been fixed, may need to be fixed again. This is really a staggering burden on takata in addition to the staingering 70 million fine. They could have to pay an additional 130 million if they dont change their procedures. Their stock stumbled, and its affecting drivers in japan. We drive a honda suv. We took it in yesterday. Had no idea that our vehicle and the air bags in that vehicle needed to be replaced. Its a huge burden. In addition, honda, one of takatas biggest customers saying theyre dropping the company and theyre deeply troubled by their behavior of producing a dangerous, faulty product, and even when apparently investigators were aware of it, they did little to fix it. The problem continued and now they have this situation and millions of drivers on the road all over the world, and especially those 15 million vehicles in the United States where people arent sure if their cars are safe. Theyre not sure whats going to happen if they get into an accident. And will, lets turn to a positive story. The holdings. The stock market debut. Whats the likely impact of that on the japanese economy . Reporter well, thats a good stock market story today. Ill walk you down the corner to my neighborhood post office. Japan post which has 24,000 branches all over the country, they are a commodity in this country, and the initial day one opportunity for Retail Investors in japan to put their money into this company, it was a huge success. 19 , far higher than what a lot of people were expecting on the first day of this stock offering. This reason is timpl. Japan post is a part of our everyday lives here in japan. We drop off our mail at japan post post office. We use the bank. Its also japans largest insurance company, and its also one of this countrys largest employers. Some 200,000 people work there. For offering people an opportunity to put money in this company, its regarded as a safe investment. It closed a couple of minutes ago. There was a line out the door just before closing as there often is every day. One fellow is in there using the atm. For people to be able to put their money into this, its a 12 million ipo. Theyre hoping japanese investors can make money off the japanese stock market. Most of the money has been going to foreign investors. This is a chance for japanese, 85 allocated for japanese investors. So far so far. Will ripley with the good, the bad, and the ugly out of tokyo. Many thanks to you. I want to turn to houston, texas where voters have repealed a law. The city passed the houston equal rights ordnance, also known as hero, last year, and conservative activists spent millions trying to get rid of it, claiming it would allow, quote, troubled men to go into womens bathrooms and locker rooms. But supporters of the law called that fear mongering. The citys mayor spoke out after this vote. Ive been an activist for more than 40 years. I have stood here in houston four times when people were given the opportunity to vote on my rights. No ones rights should be subject to a popular vote. The mayor who is openly gay called out what she said was a calculated campaign by the right wing. Ohio voters turned out at the polls on tuesday and said no to legal pot. They rejected a ballot measure to legalize marijuana for both recreational and medical use. The measure would also have allowed a limited number of farms to grow the plants.

We are just about one year away from the 2016 u. S. President ial election, and a new poll pitting the Republican Democratic front runners against each other shows a close race. In a hypothetical matchup, an nbc, wall street journal shows ben carson and Hillary Clinton tied at 347 . The poll was done before last weeks republican debate. Meanwhile, donald trump met with reporters in new york and unleashed name calling against his rivals. Jeb, he lacks the quality that you need. I think marco rubio is highly overrated. Ben carson does not have that energy. Marco doesnt show up to the United States senate. What jeb bush was saying, i dont know, but he didnt say it well. When the email thing came up, sanders lost his campaign. Marco rubios personal finances are discredited. His personal all you have to do is look at his credit card. Hes a disaster. He lives above his means. Theres no question about that. With me now is republican cnn political commentator, thank you so much for joining us. As we just heard there, donald trump is calling for other low polling candidates to drop out. Whats your reaction and how do you think voters are going to react to him calling to eliminate the competition. This is the first time hes been losing in consistent polls. He needs to bring the attention back to him. He had a rather lackluster debate last week where he wasnt the standout. It wasnt all about donald trump. So donald trump is good about making it all about donald trump. By making outrageous statements like this and saying you need to give up and let the rest of us duke it out, it makes news. Were talking about it now. And the more that trump is in the news, the more its gratifying for him. Thats what his campaign has been around. Hes been over about 50 million in media. He gets free media all the time for making statements like that. All right. Lets listen to what jeb bush had to say, how he responded to the call to jump out in our cnn interview. As it relates to donald, roohes run for president twice and quit, and ive run for governor in the biggest swing state and won twice. I know how to win, and i know how to govern which is going to be an attribute. So for the record, for donald trump, youre not quitting . No. I mean, do we have to talk about donald trump . No. Im not quitting. Hes entertaining. Hes fun. He says really funny things in the breaks, but in the debate, but im running for president of the United States. And its a serious endeavor. I do it with joy. Theres a lot of fun parts of it, for sure. All right. So jeb bush saying hes not dropping out, but he doesnt appear 10 committed to this. He keeps talking about his experience as governor when the voters have clearly turned their backs on political insiders. What does he need to do to turn things around . What would your advice be to him . Listen. Jeb bush has dug himself into a hole. I dont know if he can turn it around. Hes going to fight for it. Hes establishment. He has money behind him. There are a lot of people who support him in the establishment that will prop him up, but i dont see how he turns this around. And i did want to quickly ask you this. In new nbc news wall street journal poll shows Hillary Clinton would beat all the republican candidates except ben carson right now. How is the Republican Party machine likely to respond to this new information given it appears hes the candidate to go toe to toe with clinton . We are so far away from a National Election head to head like that. Those polls are really insignificant. At this point last time, last cycle, i believe hermann cain was winning nationally. Like i said before, a week is an eternity in politics. Were over a year out from the general election, so the fact that ben carson is leading Hillary Clinton now, in two weeks it could be someone else. So we dont take too much to be in those polls at this point. Always great to get your political analysis. Appreciate it. My pleasure. Irans Supreme Leader is clarifying the meaning of the countrys decade old chant of death to america. On twitter he says, and im quoting directly. It is clear it does not mean death of the american nation. This slogan means death to american policies, death to arrogance, but he has emphasized relations between the u. S. And iran are not normalized despite their nuclear deal. 20 years ago today the israeli Prime Minister was as is na assassinated. This was also the many feel things may have been different had he lived. Cnns orn lieberman joins me with details on how hes being remembered today. What has been playing out there . Reporter well, there have been a number of ceremonies all week to remember him and everything he stood for and believed in. Everyone here is aware that these come at a difficult time. Theres violence and near daily clashes. Its difficult to see robins vision, but this is when his followers say its most important to believe and pursue his dream. The bullets that killed him, tore a hole in the delicate fabric of peace he was weaving that no one has managed to mend. 20 years have passed. The conflict between israelis and palestinians still grinding along. Yet his daughter believes things could have been different. If he stayed alive and was Prime Minister for a few more years, i think we open to the world during his tenure as Prime Minister. There were a lot of investments. There was a belief in israel. There was hope. Reporter the hope, evident in a rally in rabin square. Tens of thousands of people came to remember how much he meant to the Peace Process and to israel, and to believe that even in these difficult times, there is still a chance for peace. There are supporters of my fathers legacy, and there is hope. Reporter the funeral brought together egyptian, palestinian, and american officials in israel. Its hard to imagine a similar scene today. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu with a very different vision of the region. Reporter israel is the haven of human rights where sword is in control, and only the sword. In death, robin has gained new life, not as a man but as a myth. His followers look to his words and dreams to this day, and so duz the former president. I think basically we may have concluded the Peace Process with the palestinians. We started. We didnt finish. It remained open. Reporter as a Soldier Turned statesman, he believed the best way to get israels future was to accept the palestinian state. He was murdered for his belief. You have to do things, and pay prizes. This is costly. The only thing is war cost more. Reporter for thousands of israelis, the anniversary of his death is a reminder of what it takes to make peace work. His daughter says its difficult to predict what it would be like if he lived because so much has changed in the middle east, especially over the last 20 years. As for how things are today, theres a relative quiet here, but we all know how fleeting that quiet can be with the tensions on the ground here. We can only speculate how different it may have been had he not been assassinateassassin. And routers quotes a president ial spokesman who says a russian made cargo plane has crashed in the capital, juba. The jokesman said the plane may have had about 20 passengers and crew on board. Two survived but people on the ground may have been killed. We are working to get more information for you, and we will, of course, bring you any updates as they come in to us. Well take a short break here on cnn newsroom and well hear from an aviation safety official on the investigation into metro jet flight 9268. Plus an australian instagram staff says shes quitting social media. What she says was really behind her preoccupation with likes and views. A warm welcome back to our viewers in the United States and all around the world. Im Rosemary Church. I want to update you on the main stories were foaling this hour. The leaders of taiwan and china are scheduled to meet on saturday. Reports say the leaders will discuss peace. In 1949, day jutaiwan split fro government in fact volkswagen share price is down. It comes after the zwregerman a toy maker admits that fuel consumption figures were set too low and certifying some models. Reuters quotes a president ial spokesman who says a cargo plane has crashed in the capital of juba. The plane may have had about 20 passengers and crew on board. He says two survived but people on the ground may have been killed. As investigators wrap up their field work at the crash site of metro jet 9268, the bodies of victims are returning home. At least victims at least a few victims have now been identified, according to the news agency, and the first victim has been released to a family. Joining me to talk more about it is cnn safety analyst, david soucie. Hes also a former faa safety inspector. Thank you for being with us. The cause of this crash appears to be boiling down to either a catastrophic mechanical failure or a bomb. With all the details you have been able to put together so far, whats your sense now of what may have caused this russian plane to crash in the sinai . Its very difficult at this point to make the distinction between the two. Even narrowing it to those two is dangerous in an accident investigation. Between the two, im leaning more toward the rupture of the fuselage than a bomb. Simply because of the infrared flash, the way it came across and the point after flight it came across would indicate the aircraft came apart and slowed its movement. It slowed down and went forward. Typically in a rupture, the accelerate might accelerate. Theres still a lot to be looked at and determined, but thats the why im leaning at this point, but theyre very close. And another piece of information thats coming out, the tail of the plane was found separated from the rest of the body of the plane. Five kilometers away, in fact. The largest piece of debris to be found. What does that tell you . Well, it must have been at a very High Altitude when the tail came off which would be consistent from what were learning from flight radar and the flash point, when the flash occurred. That would make sense that the tail came off separately. Another thing that supports the argument is the fact that theres no burn residue of course in the pictures. It doesnt appear to be what youd see as burn residue on the tail. That means the tail may have come off before the explosion. That would be consistent into the rupture to cause the explosion. And the inspection on the ground is going to be wrapped up wednesday. Are you surprised that theyre finishing up is early, and i wanted to get your assessment of how the egyptians and russians have been running the investigation. Well, im pretty pleased about the egyptians and russians and how theyre working together. They have a Good Relationship, and the investigators seem to be working well together. I am a bit concerned that theyre out of there so quickly. Theres a lot of clues and things small in nature that need to be looked at, but you have the pressure of the fact that this is not exactly a stable environment to be doing an investigation. Normally youd be able to have more time. But theyre taking a lot of documentation and marking parts and getting things photographed. Theyll probably do a digital investigation, theyll map it out in a digital model and try to recreate it that way. David soucie, we always appreciate your analysis on this. Many thanks. Thank you, rosemary. Greece is beginning to send migrants to other European Countries you should the eus relocation plan.
