parenthood executives discussing the use of aborted fetus in medical research. house republicans want to end all government funding for planned parenthood. there was widespread criticism of the

way, we have training camps rolling where they want to kill us. that's my question. when can we get rid -- >> we will be looking at a lot of different things and a lot of people are saying that and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there. we are going to be looking at that and plenty of other things. >> trump was at the center of the birther movement that claims the president wasn't born in the united states. back in 2008, republican nominee john mccain handled a similar situation differently. >> i do not believe -- i can't trust obama. i have heard about him. and he's not -- he's a -- he's an arab. he is not -- >> no. >> no? >> no, ma'am, no, ma'am. he's a decent family man, citizen that i just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues. >>

not be thought of as a trial. >> reporter: prosecutors called three witnesses to the stand, including bergdahl's former platoon leader captain john billings. billings described how thousands of soldiers risked their lives for 45 days to try to find bergdahl in a region known as ied alley. under cross-examination, billings testified he had no idea about bergdahl's mental health his. defense
