Championship series. And overnight, the cubs big comeback. Chicago rallying in the bottom of the ninth for a giant win. Now perhaps on their way to making history. Can they break a centuryold curse . . Good morning, america. Is the curse about to end . That is the big question this morning after the cubs beat the San Francisco giants advancing to the National League championship series. It was a very intense nailbiting ninth inning that went down to the wire but the cubs, they are celebrating the big win. Theyve got a long way to go to overcome that socalled curse of the billy goat. We will talk about that more later. First, the race for the white house just 27 days until the election. Donald trump lashing out at his shackles are off. That tweet part of a daylong tirade. He fired off at least ten attacks. Trumps Campaign Manager, kellyanne, c conway, is here standing by live to talk to george. Well hear from her in a moment. First, lets go to abcs tom llamas at trump tower. Good morning, tom. Reporter robin, good morning to you. Campaign sources say those tweets and clashes with paul ryan are all part of the same strategy. Donald trump wants to make sure voters know that hes not beholden to anyone, even the leaders of his own party. This morning, donald trump in an allout war with fellow republican and house speaker, paul ryan. I wouldnt want to be in a foxhole with a lot of these people, that i can tell you. But mccain is a brave man. Including ryan. He is a brave man. By the way, including ryan, especially ryan. I got that. Reporter the republican nominee furious ryan told House Republicans he would no longer defend him or campaign for him. And trump saying ryan, in part, inspired this tweet. Its so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and i can now fight for america the way i want to. The shackles are some of the establishment people that are within the Republican Party, senators and others and paul ryan led to a certain extent by paul ryan. They were holding you back . To be the nominee. Reporter ryans split with trump comes after that access Hollywood Video surfaced. Trump on a bus bragging his celebrity status allows him to grope women. When youre a star they let you do it. You can do anything. Whatever you want. Grab them by the [ bleep ]. You can do anything. Reporter and though trump apologized for his comments, hes suggesting e has been overblown. Well, first of all, locker room talk and most have heard it before, i have had a lot of women come up to me and say, boy, i have heard that and i have heard a lot worse in my life. Reporter trump fully aware that moment could have cost him the election. If thats what its going to take to lose an election that would be pretty sad. Reporter his campaign now releasing this vicious ad attacking Hillary Clintons health. Hillary clinton failed every single time as secretary of state. Now she wants to be president. Hillary clinton doesnt have the to lead in our world. Reporter the ad intended to slow clintons growing lead in the polls. Trumps running mate having to calm some supporters who were making threats if clinton wins. If Hillary Clinton gets in, i myself im ready for a revolution because we cant have her in. Yeah, dont say that. But im just saying. Theres a revolution coming on november the 8th. I promise you. Reporter now to give you a sense of the fracture between donald trump and his own party, usa today is out with a story this morning that shows a quarter of all republican governors, senators and house members will not be voting for trump on election day. The paper calling this unprecedented in american political history, george. Okay, tom llamas, thanks very much. Now lets talk to kellyanne conway, Donald Trumps Campaign Manager. Thanks for coming back to gma this morning. You heard tom at the top saying this is the strategy now of mr. Trump to take on his own party. How is that going to help you win . Well, its going to help him just take his message directly to the voters, george. Party. The rnc us and have a wonderful relationship. I talk to Reince Priebus several times a day and his chief of staff and chief strategist are in our tower most days. And im happy theyve provided so much of the basis for our ground game and field staff, so and i just want to say when we pay, when donald trump raises money like he did, millions and millions of dollars yesterday in fundraisers, a lot of that goes to the party and helps his downballot candidates. As tom said youve gotten a quarter of senator, members of congress, senator, not supporting donald trump. Last night he want the support of house speaker, paul ryan, yet earlier in the day, he said he was losing because he didnt have the support. So which is it . We want the support of anyone who is willing to campaign for us. But enough of the pussyfooting around in terms of do you support us, do you not support us . The fashion is that fact is that some of these leaders have been wishywashy and paul ryan has a job to do and the new president of the be with him, you know, to help get legislation through. At the same time does mr. Trump want paul ryan to be the speaker if hes elected . Thats up to the members of the congress. I hope it means we have a majority in the house, the senate and the presidency. Because that exhale would be the best indication that americans voting for donald trump for wout indication that amer for donald tru would be the bes indication that americans voting for donald trua would be the bet indication that americans voting for donald truc would be the best indication that americans voting for donald ttu would be best indication that americans voting for donald ta would be t best indication that americans voting for donald tl would be te best indication that americans voting for donald tl would be the best indication that americans voting for donald trump y would be the best indication that americans voting for donald trump for president also want a mandate for him to push through different pieces of legislation. Its not looking like that right now. The latest polls have you down about nine points. Falling behind in the Electoral College as well and we just saw that ad that you are playing now showing Hillary Clinton coughing and her stumble after that 9 11 ceremony. Youve got a huge gap with women right now. How are you going to be able to make that up running ads like that . We need to take the message directly to them on issues they her coughing and stumbling . Were calling into question her record as secretary of state and, frankly, that ad were releasing today is called corruption, and takes into account the fact that the clintons came out of the white house and said they were dead broke, and made a quarter of a billion dollars in speaking fees right there youre making fun of her health. No, were calling into her question whether shes got the stamina to lead. I think thats an important issue that came up in the first debate. In the second debate mr. Trump said she always gets right back up. She does, and thank god, and when she fell that day, mr. Trump said nothing about it except he hopes she was feeling well. We all did, and were glad to hear she is running a clean bill of health. Now youre running an ad . George, what does she do every single day . And all she does is call into his question his character and we want this election to be not just about character but also about issues. Nobody abc did an unbelievable report last night, i hope everyone will see it about friends of bill getting preference by the state department after the earthquake in haiti in 2010. This is not the way that the government should be run. I want to go back to another moment in the debate. The other night. Mr. Trumps threat to jail yet hes repeated it on the stump several times and he has called for a special prosecutor, and even trumps allies say that shouldnt be the language we should have. Michael mukasey says, this would be like a banana republic. Putting political opponents in jail for offenses committed. And they very well may be, is something we dont do here. Hes channelling the frustrations of millions of americans and hears from his rallies and otherwise. He feels theres a different set of rules. For Hillary Clinton. Hes threatening to use the power of the presidency to put her in jail. It wouldnt be up to him. It would have to be adjudicated. Through the regular channels just like anyone else. But, george, people feel frustrated theres a different set of rules for Hillary Clinton. He is calling for a special prosecutor. Well have to see if hes elected president if that makes any sense but folks get upset weve got a gentleman an american who took pictures inside a submarine who got jail other people seen as violating the confidentially of a National Security document, they also face penalty and in this case fbi director jim comey did make clear that she lied about how many servers she had no reasonable prosecutor would bring the case, he said. Others are criticized him for that saying that others have been penalized. Obviously in abcs polling and other places Hillary Clinton has a very difficult time proving to the American People that shes honest and trustworthy and i dont think that her actions with her server and the way they treated email imperiling everybodys National Security helped that veracity challenge that she has. Thats all we have time for. Kellyanne, thanks for coming in. Thank you, kellyanne. Abcs jon karl is going join us now from washington. You heard from kellyanne and were hearing from donald trump. How severe is this divide in the gop, jon, and where do we go from here . That was stunning. Kellyanne conway just went asked directly by george whether or not donald trump thinks that ryan, should still be the speaker of the house next year wouldnt answer. I mean that is an extraordinary sign that we are truly at war. Donald trump not just against Hillary Clinton, but against some of the most prominent and respected members in his own party. And republicans are now seeing a situation where base voters supporting trump are angry at them, and also the moderate swing voters who are upset tie this to trump. Its a loselose situation for republicans. How does the Clinton Campaign deal with an unshackled trump, his words, unshackled trump . Are there concerns there . Ive been talking to senior people in the Clinton Campaign about this. They say for the next four weeks they are preparing for a scorched earth strategy coming from donald trump. They think that the next four weeks of this campaign will look like the first 30 minutes of that debate with donald trump and bringing up bill clintons past. Thats a real challenge for them because its harder to get a positive message out fur what Hillary Clinton stands for. 27 days to go. All right, jon, thank you. We move on and get the latest on that deadly plane crash in connecticut. One passenger killed when the flight went up in flames. Now the fbi is investigating. Abcs linzie janis is here. Linzie, fbi involved because of some evidence that this may not have been an accident. Reporter good morning, george. Thats right. When that plane came barreling out of the sky, most assumed it was an accident. But federal investigators are now looking into whether the person flying it may have crashed it on purpose. This morning, the fbi investigating whether this plane crash looks like weve got a fully involved aircraft on fire on main street. Reporter was intentional. The pilot who survived, telling authorities the twin engine crash was not an accident. The plane taking off from an airport in hartford, connecticut, with a student pilot, and instructor reportedly on board. Just before 4 00 p. M. Tuesday, the aircraft striking utility the fact that this wasnt even more catastrophic is nothing short of a miracle. Reporter then cartwheeling down main street narrowly missing a van carrying her mother and children before bursting into flames. Three poles, when it hit the last one it just boom. Reporter a bystander posting this dramatic video tweeting the plane came inches from our office, went right by the window. The chief of police saying he asked the fbi to investigate because the plane went down near a Pratt Whitney factory, describing it as critical infrastructure. The company, a global manufacturer of jet engines for commercial, military and general aviation. That Pilot Instructor was rushed to the hospital and is reportedly being treated for burns. Again, his student pilot did not survive, and that mother in the couldnt speak. Authorities say it is a miracle no one on the ground was hurt. Michael. Im glad no one on the ground was hurt.

Tuesday afternoon, National Guard troops racing to repair a crucial dam in moore county, a growing hole about the size of a fire truck threatening even more destruction and more lives. Theyre risking their life to get this thing done and to me those are superheroes. Reporter this as multiple rivers in the state continue do swell to record levels. This street aligned with businesses is now part of the lumber river in record flood stage for days. Michael. All right, thank you, phillip. Ginger, you have more on the flooding. Right, because he just said it. Record flood stage for days and it will keep going for days so we have more of the images from weve been showing you but thats not the only river we have to showcase here as far as who is being affected. Flood warnings stretch from South Carolina through southeastern virginia, and you can see a couple of those rivers we wanted to highlight. The neuse river is crested at record already, staying up there and staying at major flood stage all the way through sunday. So this is not going to be over for some time. A quick check of hurricane nicole, which is a hits bermuda tomorrow or affects them. Well come back with more. Robin . We appreciate that.

We did receive a phone call from his agency asking us to we asked, is the individual she is with a danger . Does he have any critical history . Again, the agency said no.
