The team scouring the treacherous terrain and praying theyll find her. Are you biassed . Good morning, america. Dans off. It is great to have tom llamas beside me, and he just asked where is his cubs hat . Thats because this is the time when sports trumps politics. Thats right. It might be my favorite day ever doing the show. And one day you can kind of be biased. So many were rooting for the cubs. Thats your team, right . Yes. Two of my kids were born in chicago, so go cubbies. Fans were celebrating the cubs big win. The Team World Series bound outside Wrigley Field, the sign that says it all, it says National League champions. And look at this, champagne showers in the locker room as players celebrated in the clubhouse as well. I got to say, i stayed up for this game and got three hours of sleep but im pretty sure people in chicago still arent sleeping. Im sure. This says it all. The headline from the Chicago Tribune. Got their goat, a reference to the cubs curse. Its been 71 years since they went to the world series, and more than a century since they last won one. Abcs alex perez is outside Wrigley Field with more on this historic win. And, alex, this is your hometown. Reporter thats right, good morning, tom, good morning, paula. You know, i grew in up city and weve been waiting much longer than ive been alive for this moment. You can still feel the energy here from the kroutds, and across the city everywhere, fans its been a long time coming. On the field, and in theproudly its been a long time coming. On the field, and in the streets. The city knows how to have fun. Reporter chicago is celebrating a historic night. After 71 years of painful disappointment, Wrigley Field is flying the w as the cubs head to the world series. Cubs snatching their first National League pennant since 1956, when famous fan, farrell was just 19 years old. Today shes 90, and she plans to celebrate just as hard. How are you going to celebrate tonight . Ill probably have a jagrmeister. Joe maddon, high fly into right. Reporter last night the cubs shutting out the Los Angeles Dodgers and walking off with a fiverun lead. Chicago wearing down the dodgers star pitcher, clayton kershaw.

Left side. Out. Out the cubs have won the pennant. That might have been the best game i pitched all year. Im sleeping with this thing tonight. Are you kidding me . Were going to the world series. Reporter fans in the stands hugging it out and breaking down in tears. And as much as we want to celebrate, the truth ith corner, game one of the world series. The cubs will take on the cleveland independindians. The indians havent been at the series since 1997, so, paula and tom, ill take a moment to do something i probably wanted to do a long time ago, so and who knows when its going to happen again so i want to do it now. Dont hold your breath. Dont hold your breath. Its a long time coming. My lucky hat. All right, alex, thank you so much. And joining us now is espns tony reali. Tony, you know, fans they dont the last time they were in the world series, a lot of people werent even alive. I love this tweet from john cusack. He said, it feels its very hard to describe what it feels like. Cubs fans, help me out. They dont want know how to process it. So youre asking me to describe the indescribable. Thank you very much. Let me put it this way. The last time they were there, 1945, there was no moving video of the game. The game was not televised. What we showed, the Chicago Tribune headline, that black and white photo, is all we have got. So its an incredible thing, and that was before baseball was integr integrated. Before there was a Los Angeles Dodgers or new york mets or a number of teams in the league. That was how far back this goes. And the ticket prices in 1956, about 6 or so. 6 bucks. Now you cant get into wrigley next week for anything less than 2,000. Wow. Okay, so theres a little bit of a bias this morning with alex and paula for the cubs, but this is a big year for the indians, as well. Sure. If it wasnt for chicago wed be talking about cleveland. Thats a franchise that hasnt and to make things even more interesting for this city, cleveland now thinks they are believeland after what happened with lebron james in the nba final this is year, and game one of the world series is tuesday. Right across the street one hour earlier ring night for the cleveland cavaliers. Theyre going to be donned as champions in the nba season so thats going to be a big night in cleveland. No doubt theres a lot of good things happening in cleveland. Were talking about the two longest franchises for droughts rather for these particular franchises. Whos favored to win . Chicago is favored to win, theyve won 103 games this year. They arehe baseball, but its almost like a movie. But even in the movies, back to the future and major league, it took the sequel for both to get their world series appearance. Its amazing. I love what you said earlier, the first time the cubs will be in the world series on a live broadcast, live tv broadcast. Been a long time. Well be able to watch history. Tony reali, thank you so much. So good for baseball too. All right, lets turn to politics now. 16 days left in the president ial race, donald trump speaking in the country to follow president lincolns example and heal divisions, but also threatening to sue the women accusing him of Sexual Misconduct as one more woman comes forward with a new allegation.

Call it his gettysburg address. Its a contract between donald j. Trump and the american voter, and it begins with bringing honesty, accountability and change to washington, d. C. Reporter donald trump outlined his first five score days in office committing to overturn trade deals and obamacare, but making slight changes to his promises on immigration. Trump is still vowing to deport millions of undocumented immigrants, and even to build who exactly will pay for that wall, and how whos going to pay for the wall . [ chanting mexico ] who . [ chanting mexico ] reporter the republican nominee is now offering something of a payment plan. Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such a wall. Reporter trump also added a new item to his priorities list, taking revenge on the women who have accused him of Sexual Misconduct. All of these liars will be sued after the election is over. Reporter but accuses his accusers of lying, a new woman has come forward represented by attorney gloria allred. If mr. Trump thought that such bullying tactics would silence his accusers and prevent other women from coming forward, he will be sorely disappointed. Reporter adult film star, jessica drake, says trump kissed her and two other women without their consent ten years ago. The Trump Campaign insists this every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign. Total fabrication. Reporter abc news is unable to confirm any of the accusers allegations but worth noting, the Trump University lawsuit comes up in late november, so between that and the revenge lawsuits against the accusers, a lot of court dates for donald trump coming up in the first 100 days. Certainly so. David, thank you.

Lets bring in George Stephanopoulos who will be hosting this week later this morning. George, donald trump delivered what was supposed to be a major address in gettysburg, and yet the headlines coming out of it were still settling scores 16 days out. It was really a tale of two speeches yesterday in gettysburg. He did lay out a 100day agenda in the back half but the whole front half of the speech was his fraud, talking about the election being rigged and, of course, that threat to sue his accusers, which stepped on the message. Good morning to you, george. Nice to see you. Mary just mentioned it, the republicans are really concerned about the trump effect down ballot. The democrats can take over control on the senate with what . Four or five they need to pick up four seats. Right now there are nine or ten that are competitive right now and withinton picks up right now, it has the prospect of bringing in more democrats in the senate and the house. The house is a much tougher battle for the democrats. They have to pick up 30 seats. You would need to see, like, a 10 or 12point win to make that even possible. But the senate is a strong possibility. No question, its very possible. And this morning youve also got the results of our latest abc News Washington post poll and what voters are saying about the rigged election. Right . Absolutely. You know, this is coming out at 9 00 a. M. So we cant give the exact results but i think what youll see is what a decisive month october was and those debates were for Hillary Clinton. One of the things weve seen in other public polls, her increasing her lead every single donald trump is making right now about a rigged election, about these women accusers, not working. Yeah. All right, george has a big show this morning coming up. Oneonone also with eric trump and Clinton Campaign chief strategist, joel benenson, plus independent president ial candidate, eric mcmullin.

For baked by melissa, that means 100 cup cake spreads. We have them in the shape of a pumpkin and frankenstein and each cupcake is less than 50 calories so its a guiltfree holiday. Its guiltfree unless you eat all 100 of them. And then its not so guiltfree. We wont get into that. Okay, so, today youre going to teach us how to make the chocolate pretzel crunch cupcake right here. Of course. Its part of our halloween collection. Its also the mini of the month. Chocolate pretzel crunch is stuffed we call it oversuffered with dulce de leche. So you puncture the cake and you stuff it and then you overstuff it like that. You can use the ziploc bag. Just snip the tip and start stuffing. I love that. If you dont have the fancy bag, just use a ziploc. Im going to try this. You got it. Puncture the cupcake a little bit. Squeeze it in and then pull it out. Okay, so i just punctured it and now im going to is that too much . No, you did it. Its the first time i punctured a cupcake, so were done filling. Now we ice . Now we ice. Okay, so this is an icing ring. It just allows for the flavor of the stuffing to shine through and you just go around the blob of dulce de leche like that. We already made some brittle thats dry here. This is the fun part. And i wants a great way to get your kids involved. Like this. Just take a big piece and top it. Like that. This, i can do. One for you and one for me. Thats how i like to bake. This brittle is my favorite because its salty, its sweet, its crunchy. Its the perfect balance of flavors. Sweet and savory, okay, moment of truth. Cheers. Heres to a sweet halloween. Happy halloween. So good. Pop news is coming up next. Oc. I want my blood sugar to stay in control. Tresiba .
