Surprising upset against clinton in michigan, but she scored a decisive victory in mississippi by more than 65 points. That pushed clinton over the halfway mark in the race for delegates needed to lock up that nomination. We have complete coverage this morning. Well talk to donald trump live in a moment. Let us begin with nbc National Correspondent peter alexander. Good morning to you. Matt, good morning. Another strong showing overnight for donald trump. Hes padded his delegate lead, reclaimed momentum in the race and now has shown his ability to clinch the republican nomination will hinge heavily on how well he can do in next weeks super tuesday, when its winner take off. Tonight, donald trump. I will tell you. Reporter donald trump celebrating another step toward the republican nomination with what, at times, felt more like a late night infomercial. The magazine is great, take one. One, well charge you about, what, 50 no, i wont. Reporter the billionaire who polarized his party is now calling for unity. What i say to the republicans is embrace it. We will win the election easily. Reporter trump dismissing his sparring partner, marco rubio, Whose Campaign suffered a dismal night. Hostility works for some people. Doesnt work for everybody. Reporter a slinging defeat for the wellfunded, antitrump movement, but its ad airing in florida targets trump for using vulgar language. I know words. I have the best words. Listen, [ bleep ]. He gets the nomination, theyll sue his [ bleep ]. Hes a [ bleep ]. Well beat the [ bleep ]. Hes not president ial. Are you embarrassed by that . Its better than any ad ive taken by myself. More president ial than anybody, other than the great abe lincoln. He was very president ial, right . His delegate lead over ted cruz. If you want to defeat donald trump, our campaign is the only one who can do it. Reporter marco rubios last resort is his home state. I believe with all my heart the winner of the florida primary next tuesday will be the nominee of the republican party. Reporter despite tallying zero wins through 23 states, john kasich, battling for second in michigan, delivered what victory speech. Of ohio. The big prizes on super tuesday, florida and ohio, and heres what the new numbers show. First, donald trump with a wide double digit lead over rubio in florida, the senator from the state. Cruz in third. In ohio, the race is competitive. Trump holding on to the lead at 41 . John kasich at 35 . Cruz way behind. I spoke to one of the heads of the antitrump movement and they of the states that voted yesterday. Theyre setting their sights on super tuesday. Peter, thank you very much. Donald trump is on the phone with us now live. Mr. Trump, good morning. Good morning. Let me completely reverse my line of questioning from yesterday. I said, is it possible the weight of the attacks coming at you from other republicans have slowed your momentum. You won three of the four contests yesterday. Is it possible the weight of the attacks is actually helping you . I think so. Got. In mississippi, i love the people of mississippi and happened. The numbers were astronomical. Im surprised at it, matt. Ill be honest, ive never seen ads. I mean, they came at me. I heard what you said about, somebody said, what are you going to start now . Last week, they spent 30 million on negative ads. The more they call you a con man and a fraud, the more your thats one of the reasons i did what i did last night. I brought out a magazine which i have. Mitt romney got up last week and talked about the stakes. Well, we have a great stake division. We have a great magazine. We have a great all of the things he talked about, you know, i have. He went through a list of things. I dont want to even do that, but what he said was a lie. It was fraudulent, and he shouldnt have done that. I understand where hes coming from. He had a very horrible loss, and he hasnt recovered from it. Youre making me hungry. I know. Matt, the truth is, you had a loss and he hasnt recovered. We have to recover as a party. This Tremendous Positive energy in the party. Were setting records going to the polls. 65 up. Millions of millions of people, some people have never voted before, and theyre voting for trump. Theyre voting in the party. Thats a good way to get to the next question. Been saying, im a unifier. I can unify the party. Yet, you do have this big segment of the party, orthodox conservative, traditional republicans, who are terrified at the prospect of your candidacy. To the extent it is on you to do so, how can you unify . How can you get them over to your side . Okay, savannah, we have something going on thats the biggest political story all over the world, and its whats happening with the republican party. You see it better than anybody. Where millions of people are coming out and voting in the primaries, millions more than four years ago. 65 more. Whereas, the democrats are down 30 and 35 . No spirit behind hillary and there never will be. Theres nothing to be spirited about. What happens is we have something that if we could embrace it, were going to have a massive victory in november. Instead of all of this negative last week, where adam scott won, and i turn on the television and every time there is a commercial, it was a negative ad in florida about me. A horrible and false ad. These are false ads. These are disgusting, false ads that were written by people that are absolutely haters. If this party came together, matt, nobody could beat it. Thats one of the things i respect. Paul ryan called me, such a smart call, such a wonderful call. Mr. Trump, as always, thanks for your time. We appreciate it. Thank you very much, matt. Wif thee have the wines, steaks in there, magazines. A lot of things. Branding has been accomplished. As we mentioned, the upset of the night weptnt to sanders stunning Hillary Clinton in michigan. Will it reshape the democratic race and the delegate race . Kristen welker has more on that. Morning. Good morning to you. Secretary clinton wakes up with more delegates this morning, but it is senator sanders who has upset in michigan. Now, the win is significant because it shows he can be competitive in these larger, more diverse states. A lot of folks asking this morning exactly what happened. There are indications this morning that clintons ground game in michigan may have been lacking. Sanders message resonated. He hammered clinton for supporting nafta, unpopular in michigan and throughout the midwest. Even sanders seemed surprised by the win, speaking to reporters in a hastily arranged press gathering after the results came . What we have done is created the kind of moementum that we need to win. Once again, this has been a fantastic night in michigan. We are very grateful. Were getting new poll numbers out this morning. Lets take a look at florida. Secretary clinton firmly in the lead. She topped senator sanders, 62 to 32 . But michigan underscores that this democratic race just got a whole lot more competitive everywhere. Kristen, thank you so much. Lets bring in chuck todd, moderator of meet the press, and steve kornacki. Fellas, good morning to you. Morning. Lets start with the democrats. The michigan victory for sanders, did it seem a surprise . Well, maybe most to sanders and his team. What does it mean for momentum and the delegate mass . The delegate mass, it didnt do anything. Hillary clinton got more delegates because of her dominance in mississippi. He actually lost ground. But it does mean something in momentum. I think its a reminder to Hillary Clinton, she has work to do to gain trust of sort of the spectacle part of the Democratic Party when it comes to trade deals, this or that. The bitter sheetter she learns this now, the better shell potentially be after her on the same issues. Sanders won in michigan, he can win in ohio. There are Northern Tier states he can do well in. Lets switch to the republicans. Donald trump had a big night. Marco rubio had a bad day with a couple of third and fourth place finishes. If florida wasnt on the calendar next tuesday, is there any way he could stay in the race . The performance was so bad for rubio. Maybe under normal circumstances, a candidate in that situation might think about, do i even want to contest my home state . This is the problem for rubio and why it was a big win for trump last night. Early voting is already underway in florida. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of votes already in the books in florida. If marco rubio were to say, im going to get out of the race, let the party unite around ted cruz, even if it united from this point forward around cruz, wouldnt be enough to stop trump in florida. You get 99 delegates if you win. Donald trump is in a good spot right now. How is the effort, the antitrump effort to take away florida, take away ohio, how is that looking this morning . He has a better shot at ohio than florida. John kasich is a sitting governor. You get the sense that Florida Republicans arent comfortable rallying around rubio. But the Ohio Republicans are comfortable to rally around kasich, but its still not looking good. Kasich finished third, not second in michigan. No extra bump. Of course, what we described with rubio. Neither kasich nor rubio got momentum out of last night going into their home states. Its trump with the momentum. Do we look at polling differently going forward, since there seemed to be bumps in the road . We are under sampling, i doing it, under sampling the trump i agree. Ill give a pass in michigan. First Democratic State in 24 years. He said hes pulling in nontraditional voters. Were not correctly polling the trump pollsters.

Were beginning with a skinny mirror, and its causing a big controversy. Jeff, good morning. This is something, i think, many of us wonder about. Something on and you think it looks great. When you get home and put it on in front of your own mirror, it doesnt quite look the same. It turns out there is a company that makes a special skinny mirror, telling us theyre even selling the mirror to Clothing Stores. It is designed to make you look thinner. Is that fair, or just the way to get you to buy more . This morning, see for yourself. Taller. Slimmer. Reporter what these women dont know, theyre looking at themselves in the skinny mirror. Designed to make you look 5 to 10 pounds thinner. Really . Reporter on its website, the company saying the mirror works on the psyche over time, giving users instant gratification of a slimmer you. The company says theyre selling the mirror to customers, now even Clothing Stores. Boasting itll boost retail sales by 18 . Retailers will use skinny mirrors to deceive consumers into looking a certain way when and the better they look, the more likely they are to buy something. Reporter so we put it to the test. Setting up our cameras and a skinny mirror in new york. Asking women to simply pick something out and try it on. Tell me how you look in this mirror. I look all right. I dont think the dress fits me. Look over here in this mirror. This is a skinny mirror. Its designed to make you look 5 to 10 pounds thinner. I would say thats true, yes. Would you maybe buy the dress, based on how you look in this . Probably. Reporter in fact, several women noticing the difference. Longer and slimmer, for sure. What do you make of this practice . Its deceiving. The clothes look better in the store than they do in real life. When i get home, it doesnt look the same. This is where we do all the packing and shipping. Reporter we went straight to the owner of the skinny mirror company. Its not about making people look good, its about making them feel good. Store . I may buy something that looks maybe not at home. Okay. Take a break . Yes. Reporter less than two minutes into the interview, her husband interrupts. He helps make the mirrors. Can i take a minute . You have to. You have no choice. Reporter after they talk in answer. Every single mirror is different. So if its not a skinny mirror, even when you go into a dressing room, if the mirrors are not mounted properly, every single mirror in each dressing room is going to be different. But yours is taking weight off of me. Well, its taking weight off of a normal mirror. A normal mirror actually makes you look 5 to 10 pounds heavier than you do in real life. Reporter physics experts tell nbc news its not true. Flat mirrors shouldnt add weight at all. Her husband interrupts again. Stand up for yourself, not answer his questions. Stand up for yourself. Remember, you can tell him to get the [ bleep ] out of here, and he can have no story. Reporter they dont kick me out, instead saying this isnt misleading. Its just clever marketing. Isnt that what commercialism does . Buy your make ups andup and youll be more beautiful . Buy these clothes and youll be more fancy . Reporter a lot of people say its deception. I would love a mirror that makes me look thinner at home. What about the store . No. The customer doesnt know what they truly look like. Im sorry. Just checking myself out here in by the way thank you very much, guys. The company says they put a logo on every mirror so you know it is a skinny mirror. We brought one to the studio to take a look. Can you see the logo anywhere . Where . Ill show you. All the way down here on the bottom right. So small i can cover it with the edge of my pinky. Says skinny . Skinny. It says the word skinny with their logo. The company says they originally designed this to sell to customers. They do sell to customers. Retailers started calling to use in dressing rooms so they started fulfilling the orders. How can i get several of these mirrors at my home . We have one in our office and stand in front of it all day. A lot of women said theyd want this in their home. Do you want it in a store . No way. The minute you see a picture of yourself and what you really like you delete the picture. Reality denied. Jeff, thanks. Coming up, pop start. Mean girls the musical .

Looks like a cub, which i guess is the only upside of this. No, thats not a cub. I think it actually is a cub but, still, you dont get out of the car. No, you do not. Where do you pull a tiger out . Here, kitty, kitty. Tamron, thank you. Lets turn to Surprising Research now thats getting a lot of attention. Erica hill is here with more on that. Good morning. We hear about lung cancer. The majority of lung cancers are linked to smoking but we find connections between carbs we enjoy and an elevated risk of the disease. Reporter we know too many carbohydrates can be dangerous for your waistline. Now, researchers say they may cause an increased risk of lung cancer. Even if youve never been a smoker. The study conducted by the university of Texas Md Anderson Cancer Center compared roughly 2,000 patients with lung cancer to 2,500 without. Researchers found nonsmokers whose diets had a high glios glrks ycemic index had two times the chance of getting lung cancer than those with a low one. The sugar in whatever food youre eating rushes into your bloodstream. Its not combined with fiber reporter white bread,pretzels, popcorn and white potatoes. Sugar. You dont just worry about cigarettes anymore. Focus on how much sugar flows into your bloodstream from the foods youre eating. Easy to reverse. Reporter with 150,000 people in the u. S. Expected to die from lung cancer this year, its the leading cause after cancer deaths and the second most common in women and men. I think its an easy step to do right now. Every morning, instead of two lumps of sugar in your coffee or tea, swap out one for cinnamon. Reporter in addition to exercise and healthy habits, opt for foods with a smaller glycemic index. Sugar wasnt supposed to be a meal. It was a spice, like pepper. Thats the amount you should be getting in your diet. That puts things in perspective. Its more of a spice. Fruits and vegetables are great dairy, red meat and saturated fat and now white carbs. More of an issue. Science gives us the same lesson over and over again. Lets send it over to matt for more. Im here with dr. Natalie azar. Doctor, good to see you. Before we talk about the results, tell me about the research itself. Matt, i think its important to remember that this was a study called a case controlled study. This is in contrast to the gold standard, prospekctively designed studies. The casecontrolled study only demonstrates an association between two things, not a cause and effect. Does this mean i dont have to give up my pretzels and bagels . Is. No, i think it means although the association is not a cause and effect, its still a strong, compelling finding. As savannah pointed out, its not necessarily new or scientific that bad carbs would be bad for you. It reinforces this. Will say, wait a minute, even if i wasnt a smoker or am not a smoker, i have this diet with a high glycemic index, im at greater risk. Right. Here is where a little bit of the science background is useful. The glycemic index is how quickly your blood sugar rises when you eat a food. When you have too much sugar in the blood, elevated glucose level, you get an elevated insulin level. It raises all these other factors that can promote cell proliferation and that can be a cause or thats how cancers can grow. What percentage of our diet should be the refined carbohydrates . If you go back to the dietary guidelines, no more than 10 . But we know that refined sugars can increase the risk, weight gain, diabetes, Heart Disease and stroke, the things you want to avoid. Fructose in drinks, as well as all processed foods. The easiest way to think about it is what would your great, great, great grandparents called food . The packaged and things . No, rather a whole corn than cornflakes. Doctor, thank you very much. Up next, ever ask your waiter or the bartender to charge your iphone . Why it could lead to a lot of embarrassment. Well explain.

Breo wont replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Improve breathing for a full 24 hours. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. Breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Do not take breo more than prescribed. See your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. Ask your doctor if 24hour breo could be a missing piece for you.

With many people heading out on vacation soon, we wanted to share some tips on how to keep your family safe and secure. Channels hotel impossible. Good to see you. Good morning. Good to be here. Theres a lot to consider. Even before erins case, theres a lot to talk about. I wont take rooms near a staircase orel vat spr elel elevator. I feel insecure as a woman especially traveling for work. Make sure youre going to a hotel that has access only for guest s guests in the elevators. Some, you need a key to get into the elevator. Those are typically more expensive, right . Youre seeing it more and more, even in the low rise buildings. Lets talk about checking in at the beginning. Ask for two keys. If youre a woman traveling alone, you get nervous, so ask for two keys. That way, people think youre in good point. Youve checked in, you get into the elevator. When you go in the elevator, sometimes youre the last one to go in and sometimes the first. Always be the last person to push your floor button. Wait until they get off and then push the button so they dont know what floor youre going to. Fantastic advice. Now youre inside your room. What do you do . Something i do all the time is get my cell phone, call the front desk and i ask for anthonys room number. If they give me my room number, i check out. I wont stay in the hotel. If theyre not going to allow leave. Thats a basic. Its an absolute basic. When youre in the room, one of the things actually, i did this the other day. Its on my website. I took the peephole and i was able to take it out. Something else we can do. Easy thing to do in order to ensure youre safe is most peepholes dont unscrew. Right. The one i had yesterday did, but most dont. Take a band aid and slip it over the hole. Ill put it right here. Okay . That blocks someone from being able to see. If somebody is trying to see into your room, they cant. On the other side, you like the do not disturb sign, right . Yeah. The do not disturb sign, whether youre in the room or out of the room, always put it there. So people arent coming into your room. A lot of people dont like housekeepers in their rooms. When youre out, you put that in and people dont come to your room. When youre in the room, most importantly, you dont want to be disturbed. Nobody is knocking on your door. Great advice, anthony.
