national attention we shouldn't will take you there. >> donald trump campaigning outside milwaukee, denying he called it harp, but local voters make of it and new reporting. he was planning to stay elsewhere during their republican convention shift. also tonight, our first look at vladimir putin's visit to north korea and the healthy seeking from fellow despot kim jong un. and later a mega church pastor onetime trump's virtual advisor admits to inappropriate sexual behavior after allegations it was with a 12-year-old girl. good evening. we begin with breaking news primary great night. and oklahoma, georgia, and virginia, were kind of high power proxy battle is about to be decided congressman bob good, chairman of the house, freedom caucus, and a staunch conservative facing a challenger backed by the former president. you might ask, why didn't trump? back? good, because the congressman dared endorsed ron desantis for president. >> a lost by the incumbent could be yet another demonstration of donald trump's cloud. >> cnn's melanie zona joins us now from congressman goods primary night headquarters. what's the scene? their life? what are they? sorry spectator ions well, understand, congressman. >> good. just walked in moments ago and there was a small but very excited group of supporters waiting to greet him inside this very small, quaint italian restaurant here in lynchburg, virginia. but even though goods team is feeling confident based on some of the early returns the numbers they're seeing. there's a lot of uncertainty inside that room. i overheard people asking to there, what do you think's going to happen tonight? and that is because this has become one of the most bitter end, the most offensive house republican primary race in the country. bob good was outraged by his opponent, john maguire, who was a navy seal, a state lawmaker. maguire has racked up endorsement it's from 15 of goods own house republican colleagues, including a member of the freedom caucus, where bob good is a chair. so just a sign of how divisive and a polarizing figure bob good is inside the gop, even though he does have his share of allies and offenders. >> can you walk out, walk us through just some of the background on how congressman good ran afoul of not just former president trump, but also former speaker kevin mccarthy and others right? >> he's definitely created his share of enemies inside the gop. and those republicans are looking for payback tonight. of course, there's donald trump as you mentioned, he has never forgiven bob. good four endorsing ron desantis early on, even though we should mention bob, good did flip his support to donald trump after desantis dropped out of the race? that was not good enough for donald trump. and he has endorsed john maguire. he did a tele town hall last night for john maguire and his campaign even sent a cease and desist letter to bob good's saying he can't use these signs that seemed to suggest that trump is still supporting bob. good, i should note we've spotted one of the sides inside the italian restaurant. tonight. and then of course there's kevin mccarthy and his allies who were coming after good with everything. they've got. they poured a tiny money money into this race. and the reason is because bob good was one of those eight republicans who voted to oust kevin mccarthy as speaker. so this rates tonight, anderson is not only going to test trump's influence inside up, but also be a test of the strength of kevin mccarthy is revenge tour thanks. want to turn to a scene and political director. did chaldean at the match of cool. so what are the numbers right now well, right now here is virginia, we're gonna go into the fifth congressional district here, anderson. >> and what you see right now is a razor thin rates 42 votes separates john maguire, the challenger here he's got 50.3% of the vote to bob good's 49.7% of the vote. you see the raw numbers here. he is just 42 votes ahead right now, we've only got about 9% of the estimated vote in right now. so there is a lot of vote counting to do here, andersen, the fact that we're even talking about this primaries kind of astonishing kind of encapsulates his melanie just explained all the intraparty dynamics going on with the house republican conference, trump loyalty test, the ousting of kevin mccarthy. but this is where it ends up right now with 10.9% in lots more vote count how many do a razor thin race in virginia? five. and what about the races in georgia, in oklahoma? >> so take a look here. let's go out to georgia. the big race tonight on the republican side here is in the second congressional district. you see here weighing johnson, this is a run-off. i should note, right? nobody got over 50%. and so this is a run-off to be the republican nominee in this democratic leaning district when johnson and 44.6% of the vote, he's got a bit of a healthy margin there. you see 99% of the estimated boats are in right now 32% for chuck can, who by the way, serve some time in a federal prison for his activities at the capitol on january 6, right now, that doesn't look good for chuck. hand into your your question about oklahoma anderson. i don't think we have any votes yet in the main district. and oklahoma that we are looking at here, which is the fourth congressional district, polls just closed in oklahoma you see here tom cole, the chairman of the house appropriations committee, longtime establishment member of the house republican conference, is facing this big spending outsider in palma and under as a challenge here, nothing yet. the polls just close. we'll wait to see what happens there. >> all right. david, john, and thanks so much. can the top of the ticket meantime, campaign today in racing wisconsin, not far from milwaukee lucky started the republican convention in the city. he recently used the word horrible to describe. also the city he planned not to stay in during the july event according to the new york times, citing three people familiar with his plans. according to the times, the foreign president had planned to stay at a trump hotel in chicago. that is until reporters asked him about it today campaign spokesman calls the story, quote, fake news from the new york times. it goes on to say that trump has always pining on staying in milwaukee city that the candidate was quick to praise the top of his remarks in racine today you know, i love the lucky i was the one that picked milwaukee. >> i have to i was the one that picked at these nine people that they say, oh, he doesn't like bulwark, i love milwaukee. i said, you got to fix the ghraieb. we all know that you got make sure the elections honors. but i'm the one that picked the lucky and the democrats or the radical left lunatics as i call them, what they say is that just so terrible, they lie, lie, lie yeah. >> that happened keeping them honest, he said what he said about the city in a closed-door meeting and republican lawmakers last week. so any word of what he said to them about, well, milwaukee came from republicans, not from democrats are communists, marxists. but even if he was only talking about crime, is he in some of those lawmakers have said crime is by enlarge down in the city, murder down 40% over the last two years according to police figures, shootings, rape, arson, theft, assaults, all significantly lower. so given all that and given how close the state is likely to be in november, the question is, what are local voters making of it? we sent carry tuckman to find out on a beautiful summer day in milwaukee is trendy historic third board. i join these two more milwaukee ions as they eat lunch. >> do you know who you're voting for november i'm undecided. i don't like either candidate what about you? >> i'm undecided to but undecided would not describe how these men feel about what donald trump recently said behind closed doors, donald trump saying that milwaukee is a horrible city. >> but if think about i disagree entirely, this is a great city. vice river, beautiful buildings and nice and clean. >> low crimes. >> what do you think? >> i just learned? >> he has to say because you said so many crazy things, there's not much value to what he has to say. >> i think the former president's comments have struck a nerve and wisconsin's largest city, a city that will be hosting the republican national convention next month. >> a city that now as billboards, poster by the democratic national committee, calling attention to trump's milwaukee rhetoric kate lobel also says she's undecided about her vote i've lived here my entire life and i wouldn't want to live anywhere else. >> so i guess i don't agree with that it make you angry no. >> i just feel bad because i don't want more akiya to have a bad reputation because he said, this woman, so she's never been a fan of trump. >> i think that's an unfair statements and that he doesn't know the people the city was. >> his spokesman has said is that it's been falsely characterize. he was talking about how terrible crime and voter fraud are. now there's no evidence of significant voter-fraud anywhere. >> but there is crime here, although the crime rate has gone down over the last two years, the vitamin crime rate. do by that explanation no this milwaukeean who is voting for trump. she thinks it was all taken out of context. so it doesn't insult you that he said no, but you're no, not at all. outside if the city in racine, wisconsin, most people we talked to who were in line for donald trump's campaign rally had no. inclination to defend milwaukee. >> i think he's sad exactly what he wanted to say. what do you think about donald trump's comment that milwaukee is a horrible city, is absolutely right. >> most democrat runs. cities are horrible cities. murders out-of-control, crime out-of-control, wanted to get things right? >> all cities do have crime, some worse, the milwaukee and some better the milwaukee. do you think you should be saying that that cities are part of america, right? >> it's not anti patriotic to tell the truth. it's patriotic thank to fix what's broken at in the suburbs, the feelings of people we talked to about trump's comment matched up with who they supporting for president are you in cross is planning to vote for donald trump. they don't think it's a big deal. >> i think it's nothing burger. >> casey salazar's planning to vote for president biden and doesn't like the explanation she's hearing about trump's comment. >> he said it and i we know what it meant. >> meanwhile, on the beach in milwaukee county, we ask this man about former president trump's comment. it upsets me i wish that it wasn't said, but it doesn't change how he feels, who you voted for for president november i've voted for president trump garrett, did you run into any trump's supporters in milwaukee who were upset enough to reconsider their vote. it doesn't seem like it about we talked to a lot of trump's supporters share milwaukee anderson at some of them are not at all happy that he made these comments about their city, but we did not talk to one trump's supporter who says, they will not vote for him. >> notably though we did talk to a number of people who are undecided about who to vote for. and among some of those voters, donald trump did himself no. favors by making those comments about milwaukee anderson area tuckman. >> thanks very much. johnny is now three and cnn political commentator, attainment urban karen finney analyst terror griffin, obviously. i mean never a great idea to insult the city where you're going to be holding your convention. >> i mean, if a total unforced error, the billboards they're just perfect politics. i but listen, we haven't heard a lot of these kind of leaks from the trump campaign. the way that we did all the time when he was in the white house previous campaigns, it's been a lot more buttoned up. but this time he was back on capitol hill for the first time in four years since january 6. and there's one just staple of capitol hill anything you say behind closed doors will immediately leaked to reporters, most likely jake sherman, and that's exactly what happened. i think the more that he is out there or in talking to folks engaging with the press, but also other candidates, other lawmakers, we're going to be reminded of the things that he says all the high, all the time behind closed doors. but again, like this, this is not helpful. this is a key state that i think both he and biden are targeting to win and realize it's crucial. >> but there's far for more offensive things that i think he's saying on the campaign trail that the biden campaign should spotlight immigrants are poisoning our blood that talking about rage and retribution, those things matter just as much, david, i mean, it seems like he hates him walking it's going to walk. you didn't go for him in the election last time. i mean, he lost in democratic areas in wisconsin. he lost wisconsin by 20,000 votes yeah i can tell you by whites from milwaukee, it's a beautiful city. >> it's all right. >> i will i can do my shari'a by the time he's a great city and you'll be saying it. >> he'll be shouting elizabeth anderson told that voter fraud that took place in milwaukee get it. he's so concerned about apparently well, i will i will i will i will persuade him to that take place. let's hit gary talked about how to write though he understood this is a political rorschach tests, right? no matter what trump says, some people, if you don't like them, you're gonna you're going to see what you want to see if you'll like, them, it doesn't matter what you say. so there's a long distance between here, november 5 and i suspect this will be the first time were the last time that del chubb says something that's shocking and karen, of course it's an opportunity to accuse democrats have but making up stories, which is what he said, that the milwaukee was a horrible city again, it's coming from republicans yeah. can i just remind this milwaukee predominantly black area of the state and i think what you're seeing actually what i'm hearing is it's galvanizing people in the city and so sure. say more things that are going to galvanize democrats. i'll take that and we should also point out when, when the welcome party, when trump contested votes in wisconsin, they picked the two predominately black areas. >> yeah, to contest the votes. >> and they were accusing them of of of a very specific thing which was actually done in all the counties in terms of absentee ballots, but they only choose to contest it in the predominately black counties, right? >> and look, i don't think that most people will get that level of nuance that you and i were talking about anderson, but i just throw that out there as in a sort of an interesting, i'm sure he doesn't even realize that milwaukee is predominately black and that the way to win the state, you have to win that area. >> but look i agree with david. this is the kind of thing where this doesn't really matter to people who've already decided one way or the other may galvanize democrats, make people feel a little bit difference of about their city the people who though have had a rough couple of days since this came out, are the people actually working on the convention? because a napkin, you still have to deal with city officials while you're trying to plan the convention so they probably had a rough couple of days. >> well, now he's got to find a room two, which is a you probably book, but maybe somebody else. >> i'm fascinated with airbnb. no. locke's horrible well, but he thinks chicago's the safer place to be a place that he's constantly criticized, but i suspect that has more to do with wine to stay in his property there and put up the hundreds of staff that come with them in secret services. well it just in terms of primaries tonight, let's do any of them any of them a brochures, throw or sat test if anything, or i think virginia five, the bob good's see as the one to watch. >> this is good. who by the way traits to support the former president at his trial? well, by the way, this is the chair of the freedom caucus. this is as right-wing as you get in the house. the most pro trump faction of the house, from house republican conference is only sin was that he dared to backed desantis in the primary. but they actually found somebody who who might be to the right of him to run against him. john maguire, because admitted he was at the ellipse on january 6 for the stop the steal rally. so they found somebody who may be able to outmaneuver him there. but what's fascinating is yes, there's the kevin mccarthy revenge tour. there's the donald trump revenge tour, but he's donald trump keeps saying spending $12 million there, it undercuts that matter also now able to project another notable raised eugene wimmen, who is a key player along with his brother alexander. and the first each one of the former president, we can now project. he will win the democratic nomination for the house seat representing virginia's seventh congressional district the karen, did you want to say something? >> well, i was just going to point out that eugene wimmen is running and it looks like he's going to win and sort of when you think about the down trump or events tour, it'll be interesting to see sort of what, if anything, he chooses to do around this c, because obviously virginia is going to be a very competitive state in the presidential flexion and the fall de, board do you make a trump-supporting not supporting bob. good. who did show up to support him at the hush money trial hey look so anderson there, if it's bare, bare knuckle politics, right? i mean, he's, he's, he's very angry that he came out and supported desantis and you make two errors. your vote against kevin mccarthy and make a big hair there and you pick the wrong horse in the primary. i don't know what bob good was thinking, but it's not really smart politics on his, on his part i'll just say and just as a quick aside in georgia three, i think it looks like our friend brian jack, alyssa, everybody's friend of the white house worked in the trump white house political director. there's not a human being on the republican side of the ticket, at least it would say a bad thing about brian jack. it looks like he's going to win handily there and go on. it's a safe are seat, so it looks like it'll be headed to college augustus, november. and just say congratulations, early graduations him. i think that i'll you won't find a bob good's situation that there's not a person on capitol hill on the republican side that has the main thing to say about brian. so it's celebratory david, let me ask you what saturday at the charlie kirk thing the former president was once again talking about and you stop the steal and talking about mail-in voting as being terrible and just dangerous and don't do it. how you must love that somebody who wants to see him let elizabeth anderson we have to listen again. president trump vote-by-mail is okay. >> we need it like i don't know what we can do. >> we need we need that early voting. we need to vote by mail. we need to bank republican votes in an election day. i mean, it's, you know, rid of boards that he is still making this argument. i mean, it is it's remarkable i mean, i'm sure there's a lot of democrats are saying shut up, let him keep doing it yes, we are i know the president feels very strongly about that, right? and let's set the rules are what the rules are, where you could ballot harvest. we need to ballot harvest. we need to do everything in our power. the democrats are very good david, how much money do you want the rnc to devote? >> two people watching drop mail-in ballot drop boxes because lehrer very, very concerned about voter fraud as well. how much are you pushing for the orange? d to devote to the how many billions? >> yeah, i look and i look, i'd like bill yea
