Although, the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. I dont know. Reporter does that mean violence from gun rights advocates . Trumps team insisting he is referring to voting.

Watch for trump allies to go after clinton on that today and for trump to face more questions about his second ament remarks. He says he is referring to the voting power of those gun rights advocates.

Good morning. Its amazing. 26yearold three gold medals in london. Looking at her today, its hard to belief her struggle with depression nearly kept her out of the pool for good. There has been times in practice that i have never made in my life. Mentally i think im stronger than ive ever been. Reporter today Allison Schmitt is feeling strong. And thats no small feat given just ask her coach, bob bowman. Youre an american record holder and then you dont make the Championship Team the next year . Thats a big fall. She didnt make it the next year or the next year. Four years later to be on an olympic team, thats some perseverance. Perseverance that took place mostly outside the pool. When i woke up in the morning, i would look forward to going back knew it was time for practice. But my thought was, when can i get back in bed . Reporter her battle with depression nearly ended her swimming career. I was failing almost every time i got in the pool. A place that i love, a sport that i love and diving every time and fail. I didnt know what else to do. Reporter allison started seeing a psychologist in early 2015. But it was just the beginning of i think it hit me hard when i got that phone call. It was shocking knowing that my younger 17yearold cousin killed herself. Had such a promising future, had just came back from visiting a division i school. She in many ways was like you, outwardly happy helping others, which is what a lot of your teammates have said about you. If there is one thing that i can say is if i knew and help her and let her know that there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Reporter aprils death was a wakeup call for allison. She needed to find light at the end of her own tunnel. And she couldnt do it alone. She was somebody who never would share when she was in a bad mood or something was going on. Reporter by Michael Phelps, allisons longtime friend, teammate, and roommate, knew she was struggling. When youre in a place like that, you kind of continue going i went through. Reporter as an athlete, allison says sharing her burden didnt come easily. We are taught at a young age to push through anything. I think we use that mentality all through life. I think now i realize you can never get through life alone. Reporter so with phelps by her side, and an agreement with her coach to take things day by day, allison kept going. Going to rio has already been like a medal for you. I dont think theres anything to prove. What i care about is myself and the people around me. My whole circle of friends and family. If i can make them proud and finish rio proudly that is what will make me happy. That is what will cap off the past four years. I cant wait to watch her race. But also, you know, she said this has created a whole new passion in her life. She wants to work to spread shes incredible. Im sure a lot of people thought if she can do it i can do it. It is important that we speak out about it. And the fact that shes a strong athlete taught to keep on. Its also important to speak out about whatever shes going through. By the way, shes in the pool tonight. Cant wait. We are back with much more in a moment from rio. We are back with a special rio edition of steals and deals. There are 206 countries participating.

Sponsored by citi, proud partner of team usa, proud sponsor of progress. And we are back with todays athletes to watch. One of the sports making a return to the olympics this year is rugby. We love that. The u. S. Mens team kicked off the competition on tuesday with a win over brazil and loss to argentina. They will be back in action good to be here. I wish the weather was better. They should have won the game. England popular all over the world rugby has not been a part of the olympics since 1924. The teams that won gold that year, the americans were defending champs. This years team has been training hard. Its been called a gentlemans game. Match there is not much that looks gentle. Under the bright california sun americas best rugby players come together in the hopes of defending a legacy. The u. S. Was the last country to win olympic gold. In the 1924 games in paris. That was 92 years ago and a slightly different game. Traditional rugby has 15 players on each team and games are halves. Each Team Gets Seven players and halves last just seven minutes. More room to run and quicker pace often means higher scoring matches ideal for speedsteres on team usa. He was trained to become an olympic sprinter. Growing up this wasnt on your i never thought i would play rugby. Another star on the team, perry bacon, a former arena Football Player he has become a rugby sensation. Joining the team after resigning with new England Patriots is nate. He played rugby in college before switching over to football. Now he is hoping to get a gold medal to wear with his super bowl ring. Standpoint, running standpoint it is way more strain. We got to watch them work out and work together. We can beat any team in the world when playing well. That is madison hughes. He is also team captain. To get a better grasp i ask the guy to give me a lesson in unique the scoring is similar to american. There is a kick after called conversion attempt. There is the rock. As he gets tackled he reaches back and presents the ball to his teammate. Its how play starts again after the ball goes out of bounds. And lets not forget the scrum. Its when players bind up and go head to head after an infraction to try to push each other off the ball. Average american doesnt know a great deal about the sport of rugby. What would you have them know before you i think dont get caught too i couldnt leave without challenging rugbys fastest man to a foot race. Americas rugby team hopes to leave opponents in its wake on its way to gold. I would have won that. By the way, pitch again this afternoon against world number one fiji. We may see french food in brazil. First on a wednesday morning todays rio is sponsored by cocacola. Open a coke and enjoy the games.
