This morning. We now know the where and when but the who is anybodys guess. Donald trump announced on twitter hell reveal his run running mate tomorrow in new york city. Lets start with nbcs Hallie Jackson with the latest. Hallie, good morning. Reporter good morning. Donald trump today getting ready to reveal to the world who his pick for the president ial ticket may be. Publicly he says. Privately he says hes down to two or three finalists. Trump is waking up on the west coast for a fundraiser in california. Hes in a new york state of mind. Thats where an announcement will be this race for a running mate now in a sprint to the finish line. Just over 24 hours from now, the biggest decision so far of Donald Trumps candidacy. I want to pick someone thats solid and smart. Reporter trumps team taking advantage of a few extra hours in the Hoosier State because of plane repairs to meet with contender Newt Gingrich who was flown to indianapolis on a private jet to talk with trump. Travel facilitated by a fox news host. Gingrich now predicting its down to him and pence. He clearly is down to two. Hes got two really good but really different choices. And i think it will be interesting to see certainly im one of the people sitting by the phone waiting. Reporter tho with mike pence over breakfast joined by his children. Character of his children is truly inspiring. It was an honor for us. Whatever the outcome. Reporter sources close to the campaign tell nbc news pence and gingrich and Chris Christie who spoke by phone with trump this week top the short list though the decision is ultimately up to trump alone. In the midst of an intense week, a distracting twist. Trump now filing a 10 million arbitration claim against a former Campaign Aide accusing him of trying to spread suggestive rumors about Senior Campaign staffers. Through it all, Hillary Clinton not letting up. Out with a new ad this morning showing children watching clips of her rival. I wouldnt lose any voters. Reporter clinton hopino conversation about kids. When kids are scared by political candidates and policy debates, its a sign that something has gone badly wrong. Reporter its a different kind of focus on family for the trumps this morning with these exclusive Time Magazine photos and story highlighting the trump childrens high profile positions as some of their fathers most trusted advisers helping to vet the vp pick, the selection suspension now nearly over. Reporte while we know trumps children will speak at the Gop Convention in cleveland next week, were learning more about who else will take the stage. A Senior Campaign official confirming to me that tim tebow will be one of the speakers along with notable names. You have people like dana white. List. For example, governor mike pence not on the speaker list to come out and address the crowd. Neither is bobby knight who trump has long said could be one of the options. Matt, savannah . We know youll keep watching it. Thank you. Steve kornacki here to break down the top contenders in the trump veep stakes. We hear pence, gingrich and christie. Someone else you want us to reconsider . Could be a dark horse here. Lets look at pros and cons. Start with Newt Gingrich, trump says he wants d. C. Experience, gingrich has that. Gingrich sets himself up as antiestablishment guy. Very much like donald trump. What are cons . Lots of baggage. Ethics. A lot of stuff in Newt Gingrichs history and age. This would be the oldest ticket. You add up two ages, oldest ticket in history. Want to put Chris Christie on have a lot of it. Bring energy to the ticket. Cons, the bridgegate investigation still going on. Those trials could play out during the fall campaign. And of course personality. Is it too much . Is there a risky overshadows donald trump. Pike pence, put him on the ticket . You get solid credentials. D. C. Experience. Gubernatorial experience. Hes a sure pick. Those are positives. Negatives, hes not that popular in indiana. That could be a swing state this year. Not sure he helps you much this year. Is he too safe . Donald trump is a showman and entertainer. Heres the child card. Jeff sessions, alabama senator called in for lastminute meeting yesterday. Maybe a head fake. Maybe it means nothing. Obviously very solid conservative credentials. Immigration, thats his signature issue. Thats trumps signature cons, a lot of past controversy. Racial controversy for Jeff Sessions earlier in his career and alabama is a deep red state. Deep red area. Not sure what he brings to the table in terms of the electoral college. Four options to look at. Steve kornacki going with the head fake at the end there. Thats good. Lets turn to the important path to 270, thats the number of electoral votes needed to win the presidency. Chuck todd has a look at the latest poll and what it reveals with the battleground states. Youll start with iowa. Yesterday we had battleground states that showed a tight race. Explain to people why we see this divergence. I think in some cases you see divergence because of the different way different pollsters conduct things. Theres one polling firm in particul outlier results than any other. Its early. Any individual poll you can pick it apart. Lets look at our numbers here. Our track record has been with our pollsters has been very good. We split our battlegrounds north and south for the next couple of days. Were rolling out some northern battlegrounds. Ohio, iowa, pennsylvania. In these three states, in iowa, its extremely close. You would think why is a state like iowa extremely close . It is. Heres pennsylvania. This is one of the three that actually if youre donald trump, youre not happy that this isnt close. Because while hes close in ohio, close in iowa and doing well in northern states, pennsylvania is a state if he doesnt put it in play, then he cant make up ground if he doesnt win florida, doesnt win north carolina. Weve got him down nearly double digits. Something to watch for in pennsylvania, theres a large minority vote. Large africanamerican vote and in our poll, heres the amount donald trump got in pennsylvania. Zero. Zero percent of africanamericans in pennsylvania. Thats a huge problem going forward, guys. Can i just mention these results come after we did this polling after the fbis report on Hillary Clintons private email server, correct . It is. Thats exactly right which is why the numbers did shrink in ohio and in iowa. It was extremely close. If youre trump and you didnt make up any ground in pennsylvania, then you got to start to ask yourself where will i find my path to 270. For trump, it all has to go through the rust belt and in the Northern Tier of this country. Chuck with new poll numbers this morning. Thank you. Nbcs chief global correspondent bill neely sat down with president Bashar Al Assad exclusive. We want you to know the interview was recorded by the presiden p changes to the content. Bill, good morning. Reporter good morning, matt. This was a fascinating insight into a man thats been at war for five years. It wasnt just that hes defiant, he was confident, sure of victory and that he said is done to russia. As you hear, he was critical of president obama. Some of the rest might surprise you on isis and on donald trump, whose inexperience in Foreign Policy doesnt bother him. From what you know of mr. Trump, is he smart enough . I dont know him. When i sit with him face to face i can judge him. He seems to president of the United States putin. Does that give you hope that maybe hes a man you could do business with . If hes genuine. I think hes saying the right thing. Every person whether agree or disagree with president they should respect him. Reporter he told me american air strikes against isis are ineffective and counterproductive. Whose fault is that . Is that a military fault or is president obama simply not being lets say ruthless enough. Its not about being ruthless. Its about being genuine. Its about intentions. Its about being serious. Its about having the will. If they dont have the will to defeat the terrorists but will to control them and use them up against time. Let me probe you about the new relationship you want with the United States. Isis is headquartered in your country in raqqah. If you knew isis was about to attack the United States, would you warn america . As principle yes because they may attack civilians and i United States for the bad intentions of their officials. This is not correct. As i said many times, i dont consider the United States as they dont occupy my land. Reporter i put many direct questions to him including whether he was a brutal dictator. He said if a doctor cuts off a limb to save a life, you dont call him a brutal doctor. Hes doing his job. Personally, a very charming man. Thats a chilling comparison when you consider that its actually the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of syrians that hes talking about. Matt, savannah . Bill neely, thanks. A fascinating interview. You can see more of it tonight on nbc nightly news with lester holt. A suspected serial kill on the loose in arizona.

All right. Were back to burst savannahs bubble one more time with more on the rossen series, is it rigged. Are you getting a fair shot at carnival games . Will matt ever get that pink unicorn he so desperately desires. Today jeff rossen exposes the secret trick. We have prizes over here. Win or lose. Summertime as you know carnivals and state fairs popping up in almost every town every weekend. If your kids are anything like mine, they want you to play. They beg you to play. We hand over the cash. Take a shot. 20 bucks later we walk away empty handed. Were not the worst players in the world. The carnival has games for years and this morning we have new games for you exposing the tricks so you dont get played. The games look so simple. The entire red star has to be shot out. Not even close. Pop a balloon. Make a basket. Here we go. Here goes nothing. Even just toss a ball. Cant win. The game operators can do it just watch. He makes it look so easy. So when i step up, why does it feel like i cant win. Am i really that bad at these games or could it be something else. Who knows about the games at this carnival but experts say in many cases, the games can be rigged making them nearly impossible to win so you keep forking over cash but how do they do it . This is classic basketball game. Seen at all carnivals. Rich is a retired polic officer. He spent 35 years investigating rigged carnival games. This morning exposing the secrets for us. Why dont you give it a try. Boom. Try this one. Try this one here, okay. Jeff, let me show you why i just missed. This is a round rim. Thats whats used in regulation basketball. This is a carnival rim. Its oval. Its oval and only 17x10. 5 inches. On a perfect shot the ball barely fits in. He says this next game is even trickier. Tubs of fun. Looks easy enough. Throw a ball in a tub. Ill play the carney. You can play the customer. You get two free shots and see how easy it is to win. Got them in. When you threw the balls in here, theres a third ball in here. When you play for the money, theres no ball in there. You have to throw with no help. Let me try that. It wont stay in. You lose. This last game is so impossible to win the fbi even investigated it. The ring toss. With this one they let you come in really close. Arms length. They give you all these rings. How can i lose this . How can you lose . Come on. Come on. Whats happening here . Youre going to lose. The fbi did a study on this game and found only 1 out of 700 will ring the bottle. The rings barely fit over the neck of the bottle. It barely fits right on top let alone at an angle. Its gambling and its wrong. Most games have to be winnable adding state Law Enforcement officials come out to verify that they are games of skills and experts say rigging games is just bad business. Carnivals are making lots of money off the backs of children and that needs to stop. Not all carnival games are rigged, if youre worried, play games where you can compete against another player. Theres a guaranteed winner. Another tip, if youre playing the balloon dart game. We have it set up with matt and savannah. I want to show you what they do. They deflate the balloon sometimes so theyre harder to hit. The darts, they dull the tips. Very hard to hit. You want to throw some . Back off. I hit it though. They will not pop. Second while i run up here. Let me run over here. Hold your fire. Hold your fire. This is the way it should look. Use the darts with the tips. Youre still bad at it. You have to hit a balloon, savannah. I got one. Big difference. We take that to the carnival but not savannah. Shes pretty good actually. There we go. I got two. This is fun. Three. Now were on fire. When you go to the carnival, look for inflated balloon and check tips of the darts to make sure theyre not dulled down. Its really satisfying. Okay. We may never get to the break. Jeff, thank you so much. Coming up on pop starts the hit song caught in the middle of taylor swifts war of words with Calvin Harris. Hold your fire.

The survey said, this is what they fessed up to. What do you think 66 of people admit to doing while driving car. Stick finger in the nose. You would be correct, sir. While driving. 66 . 52 said they have eaten a full meal on the road. Hopefully that has nothing to do with the previous category. I have done that. While driving . Yeah. He barbecues. 43 of people saying they take off or put on clothing while theyre driving. Yeah. Any of you ever do personal grooming . My hair. Lipstick. The occasional tweezing. People clip their fingernails behind the wheel. 1 , this is like two people, 20 people, they actually changed a babys diaper. Not possle thats crazy. We have two shirts. This is a womans shirt. You have a mans shirt there. Ever wonder why the buttons are on different sides . I have. We now know. It dates back to when buttons were invented when matt was born around the 13th century. So easy. Only wealthy women could afford buttons on their shirts. If they were wealthy, they always had ladys maids. It made sense because it was someone else buttoning their clothes and it never changed. You might be wearing womens shirts. It wouldnt surprise me. Pop start . Were going to start off with taylor swift. Busy day online for taylor. The pop stars exboyfriend going on a twitter tirade over the song you hear right now who wrote lyrics to his song. He took to twitter to tell his side of the sorry. I wrote the music produced the so song arranged it and cut the vocals. Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to make me look bad. I figure if youre happy in your new relationship, you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your exboyfriend down for something to do. The whole thing went up in smoke after that. Katy perry jumped in. There is the teams response. She wrote the hit song for her exboyfriend. He didnt even mind that taylor used his name and then conversation. Referencing her past feud with taylor by retweeting a tweet from time. Seen this one before. Can you end this segment with a vsnap or something. I hope they get this straightened out in homeroom.

He has won 22 medals in four olympic appearances including the 18 gold medals he got making him the most decorated olympian ever. So you remember along the way phelps broke the record for most golds at a single olympics with eight in beijing. Its a record that fellow american swimmer mark spitz held since 1972 and natalie got to spend time with the legendary mark spitz. He took the world by storm in the 1972 Olympic Games in munich winning seven gold medals and today his olympic spirit has propel in life. People remember me as a poster with seven gold medals. They expect me to look like im 22. Who could forget that speedo, that mustache and those seven gold medals. Mark spitz swam his way into the record books winning those seven golds at the munich games in 1972 and became americas golden boy. Theres no one faster than me on the planet. Today the stash is long gone but not his olympic spirit. So good to catch up with you. What is your life like now . I think my life is a lot of fun actually. Spitzs olympic triumphs has had much success in business and motivational speaking. I learned from my experience as an athlete to surround myself with great coaches. Reporter spitz grew up in california and started swimming competitively at nine and quickly learned what it would take to be a champ after a fifth place finish in one of his first races. I looked over there. That guy looks more important than me and hes on the highest stair and it says number one. I took the Purple Ribbon off and gave it to my mom. I will never wear purple to this day. It had a profound effect on me. Going into the 1968 summer olympics in mexico city at 18, he held ten World Records and it would expect he would win up to six gold medals. Ended up taking home two gold team medals, a silver and bronze. The world thought i had failed. Disappointed but even more determined. Spitz decided to attend indiana universi university. You call that the most difficult decision you had to make in your life. Why was it the right one for you . Greatest thing that ever happened to me to be honest with you. To learn from him. Four years later it paid off in munich with his seven gold each of his seven swimming events but spitzs triumphs were overshadowed by tragedy. An assault by arab gouerrills at the games. In the end the police won and terrorists lost. Back home spitz retired from swimming at just 22. But he was just Getting Started in life and ready to cash in on his olympic fame. He would become one of the First American athletes to earn millions in endorsements. I had offers from all over the world. I tried to figure out what i was going to do. Spitz was everywhere. He even tried acting. But realized he did have some limitations. So mark spitz the actor did not work out. Im okay with that. Im okay with that. He found happiness in his personal life with his wife and two sons. I met my wife a couple weeks after the olympics. Ive been married for 43 years is it hard going from an olympian to being a regular guy . I can never escape that personality of who i was as mark spitz. They said old soldiers never die, they just fade away. Old olympians never sort of die. They just sort of fade away. All of a sudden Michael Phelps showed up and rejuvenated who i was. Phelps into the pool for olympic history here. For 36 years spitz held onto that record for most gold medals won at a single Olympic Games and then there was phelps and spitz was watching when phelps broke his record. History in beijing. What you did tonight was epic and it was epic for the whole world to see how great you really are. Its hard to swim fast times. Swim in a meet like you practice. Hes happy to share what hes learned as one of the most decorated athletes. I would rather lose the race having been in front in the lead thaner because i had too much saved up. First group, ready. Giving the swim team at the high school a once in a lifetime opportunity. Swimming tips with spitz. Once an olympian, are you always an olympian . I think so. If thats all i had, thats more than most who never got there. I think were always an olympian. Ive always thought of myself as just a regular guy and i happen to do something extraordinary in the journey of my athletic career. Such a cool guy. That extraordinary performance in munich led to endorsement deals and his plan was actually to become a dentist. He has really good teeth. Beautiful teeth. Before he had that mustache and you couldnt see. He shaved that mustache off in 1988 as a valentines day gift to his wife. What he said about just participating is so important. We ceremony, most of those athletes thats the biggest moment of their olympics. Just being there. Its not medals even though he has accomplishments. It was more about participating.

Announcer from nbc news, this is todays take with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall. Live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza.

Theyll play us some of their hits coming up later on. Looking forward to seeing that. Spectacular. I tell you, lots to talk about. Last nights espys came together in los angeles. The night starting out on a serious message. Four nba great, carmelo anthony, chris paul, dwyane wade, lebron james, calling for an end to gun violence. We all feel helpless and frustrated by the violence. We do. Thats not acceptable. Its time to look in a mirror and ask ourselves what are we doing to create change . Its not about being a role model or about our responsibility for tradition of activism. I know tonight we ali but lets call professional athletes to educate ourselves, explore these issues, speak up, use our influence and renounce all violence and most importantly go back to our community and invest our time, our resources, help rebuild them, help strengthen them, help change them. We all have to do better. Thank you. I mean so powerful those words. Its important that they said seeing athletes stand up and say were more than just about the accomplishments on the court. We have to stand up for this and use our example and our voice and the power that we have. It was a really powerful message. Im glad they wanted to start the show. Even though he said its not about being a role model, they are role models. To listen to their words and generation alike. You look at social media right after and on into this morning and its been overwhelmingly positive response to that message. Thats cool. Lebron james getting five awards including best male athlete and best nba player. A good year for him. It was. A great night all around. Abby wambach getting honors and just a lot of great to see a show of force in the sports world but a lot of hollywood people there as you would expect. Our good friend, wwe star, hosted the awards. He was hilarious. He nailed his monologue. He wasnt reading from a prompter. It was him having fun. All in. Take a look. Why . Why did they go get a guy from the red headed stepchild of sport and entertainment . Why did espn get a h wwe . I mean, its rigged. Did i just spoil the surprise for some of the people . He was good. It gets even better. If you havent seen it, go back and watch the clip. Its hard to do in front of a group of people like that. You could tell he was trying to warm up the crowd. People here are tense. He won them over. You all have been talking about pokemon go all week. My son wanted to walk the dog. Hes got his pokemon on the streets of hoboken walking the dog looking for the pokemon. I was trying to get him to explain it to me and he showed me how to catch the pokemon. Its connected to your phones gps. You have to be in an area with good can go and collecting the pokemon characters throughout and it kind of shows you on a map where to go to get them. But then you reach Different Levels and you can battle when you get to level five and battle other peoples gem. People who have got to that level five. You can take them on to try to win over their characters. Its been a boom for a lot of businesses. You can set up a lure. One pizza place increased sales by 75 over the weekend. Amazing. Because they were one of those gems . Were supposed to have it on this phone. Its not working. It really is amazing. Youre getting ready to do a crosscountry trip. It might make it fun for the kids. Were going to start driving and head west and along the way maybe the grand canyon catch a couple watch where youre walking. It will be cool for them to have like a scavenger hunt. There have been negative stories about it. People just have to be safe. I think they might it might not be a bad idea to disable it while youre driving. It will work under 20 miles an hour. I think you could probably do away with that. And negatives we reported on people falling into ditches, crashing into things. On the upside its making for great videos their friends are taking of them doing these things. There is an upside. Its getting people to get out and get outside and walk. That was my son last night wanting to walk the dog. This is good. Not looking at anything around them. The car is coming at you. Thats a real car. Who dt me up before you gogo this is a french bulldog. Wake me up before you go go dont leave me hanging on like a yoyo another dog walks in. He checks this all out. What is going on. The dog stops for a second. And then when the big dog walks away, it goes right back into dancing. The big dog walks in. Youre an idiot and walks away. I love it. Speaking of dogs, its National Hot Dog day. Wasnt yesterday National French fry day . Every day is a National Food day. Whats tomorrow . I want the National Fun Day day. Whats your favorite on you my normal favorite i need to just taut something here. Its been relish and mustard. I said relish on air one time and this company sent me this jar of a mix of mustard and relish and cabbage and its like everything i love in one jar. I need a fork. I need to try that. Its not too spicy . They have different versions. This is regular. So its sauerkraut, relish and mustard. All linked together. Would you like to try this . Great idea. Mine is just ketchup and mustard. I like relish, mustard and i also like onions. I like baked beans. I love it. Its so good. We love it. Anyway, we have that hot dog in orlando yesterday, remember that. Did you eat the whole thing . Not at all. Al did though. Look at al. I have seen the baby bump finally. Its finally there. You can eat hot dogs . Theres this whole thing. A whole list of things that my mom ate when she was pregnant but i cant eat when im pregnant anymore. Its like lunch meat and hot dogs and apparently there can be a hot dog in those things. If i get it since im pregnant, its extra bad. Most of the time youre not going to get it. You have to cook it really well. Thats it. Thats a very well cooked hot dog. I can eat it. Lets get a check of the weather. Pref lets show you whats going on. Yesterday we had whats called a derecho, a long lasting line of thunderstorms, goes 250 miles. It really caused a lot of damage. Hundreds of thousands still without power in the midwest. Downbursts drive these from the jet stream, drive these jets down. You can have as much as Miles Per Hour doing as much damage as a tornado. Were not expecting a derecho today but we are looking for strong storms developing stretching from buffalo, new york, back into parts of arkansas as this system pushes east were going to have the threat of severe storms today. Dodge city to memphis, damaging wind, hail, cant rule out a tornado or two. Get here into the northeast and parts of new england, were also looking for a risk of strong storms. Late morning storms will intensify and later this afternoon damaging winds. The main threat, we can also see torrential downpours. Thats what going on around the country, here is whats happening in your neck of the woods. And the areas in orange will be under heat advisory from noon until 8 00 p. M. This is the entire d. C. Metro area but no matter where you are it is hot and humid. Right now temperatures coming in in the low 80s. 81 in washington and college park.
