Donald trumps numbers in swing states are dropping and the republican president ial nominee is trading controversy about what he is potentially losing in one state. In pennsylvania, Hillary Clinton points over the republican candidate but not trump claiming a loss there would be suspicious. Errol barnett is in our Washington Bureau with more. Reporter controversial statements from donald trump, once again, drawing negative attention to his campaign, giving his democratic rival Hillary Clinton plenty of ammo. Trump is losing ground to clinton in key battleground states and is now reacting by expressing concerns about voter fraud. My opinion, i really mean this, pennsylvania, is if cheating goes on. Reporter campaigning across pennsylvania yesterday, donald trump called on voters to get to the polls, but not just to vote. So i hope you people can sort of not just vote on the 8th. Go around and watch and look at other polling places and make sure that its 100 fine. Reporter trump is sticking to his Campaign Message of late that the against him and if not careful, he could be cheated out of the presidency. We have to call up Law Enforcement and we have to have the sheriffs and the Police Chiefs and everybody watching. Reporter this on the heels of yet another week of controversy for the republican nominee. This time, for attacks against president obama. So i said, the founder of isis. But not that sarcastic to be honest with us. Reporter trump was asked if he was serious when he said the president was the founder of isis. He created the vacuum . No he is the founder of isis. I call Hillary Clinton and president obama the founders of isis. Reporter it is fracturing the gop. Many 70 republicans signed an open letter urging the Republican National committee to divert funds from Trumps Campaign toward Vulnerable Senate and house races. You read. Reporter but rnc chairman Reince Priebus says the party is united and introducing trump at his republican raerls. Rallies. Capitaling on republican chaos, Hillary Clinton released this attack ad on friday. We will only know if he is a real deal or a phony if he releases his tax returns. Reporter showing members of why he wont release his tax documents and, simultaneously sharing her own. The documents show hillary and bill earned more than 10 million last year, paying upwards of 34 in federal taxes. Hillary earned 3 million for her book hard choices. While bill accepted more than 5 million in speaking fees, most of what the two donated to charities went to their own Clinton Family foundation. And we should note that the Clinton Family foundation is foundation itself which is under scrutiny after hacked emails raised questions about its influence over government policy. Now trump responded to the release of clintons tax returns saying what americans really want to see are the 33,000 emails deleted from her private server. Errol barnett in washington, thank you. For more on this and the rest of campaign 2016, we turn to the Washington Post columnist katherine rampel. If youre looking at the numbers what does he need to do to recover . The same thing he and his team always know they need to do which is to reset, to stay on message, to exercise some sort of message discipline to stop sort of mouthing off about whatever pops in his head, no matter how much applause against him at his own rallies. The campaign and we have known this a long time and seems like every other day a declaration of a reset and pivot and the next day he turns off something inflammatory that turns off voters. Reince priebus says everybody is on the same page. How true is that . Not true. Trump is not going to drop out and others are calling for the rnc to withhold funding from trump during the president ial election and focus the money on candidates. There is a lot of discord within the party. The priebus trump dynamic right now is dicey. I wonder how much dicier it can get before it comes to a head . I think its been very reportedly, one of the things that really upset priebus recently was when donald trump refused to explicitly endorse paul ryan who has a very close friendship with priebus. So i think that, you know, may have led things come to a head and it seemed at that point Donald Trump Backed down. He did endorse ryan but maybe the biggest blow up between the two we k outrageous remarks that continue to alienate important demographics cant help the relationship. I think people are wondering why dump has not released his tax returns. We saw hillary do it recently. Do you think is going to do it . He is not going to release his tax returns. He basically said hell release them when the audit is over. Under an audit you can release your tax returns . Is there no prohibition on releasing your tax returns. When the audit is over and he says is under continuous audit. We have this longstanding tradition of releasing tax returns. How much they made, how much they were paying, including bill clinton making 17 million from this education nonprofit. Not small amounts of money. That particular consulting source of income that you mentioned about this college, i think somewhat hurts the clintons case for attacking donald trump on trump university, right . They are both forprofit educational institutions of some kind. That consulting gig has not gotten quite as much attention. Katherine, thank you so much. Thank you. A hacker posted new published reports say the breach may be tied to russian intelligence services. The hacker posted the personal cell phone numbers and email addresses of about 200 members of congress, including House Minority leader nancy pelosi and democratic whip steny hoyer.

John dickersons guest including maine. Investigators are trying to figure out why a small plane crashed in an airport in virginia, killing all six people on board. As the pilot aborted the flight, the plane struck a tree line at the end of the airport in forehe fredericksburg and the plane went down near a railroad line. A judge has overturned the life sentence of a wisconsin man in a case that was profiled on the Netflix Series making a federal judge ruled on friday that investigators coerced the confession using deceptive tactics.

The americans have now won 50 medal in the first week of the olympics. 20 of them golden. Y janeiro. Good morning. Reporter good morning. What a performance by team usa, right . Katie ledecky continued her dominance in the pool by winning the freestyle and the ole man since 1904 to swim an individual race won gold for team usa. Probably the most exciting point of the night, though, is with Katie Ledecky. It was jaw dropping when she won the 200 and 400 earlier in the 800 meter freestyle last night. The nearest swimmer was nearly ten seconds behind her if you were on social media, everyone was going crazy also, a blowout to a very tight race. Americas doroto took home her second gold medal stopping hungarys socalled iron lady who had already won four straight gold medals here in rio. Now for the men, the fountain of youth was discovered in the 50meter freestyle and at the age of 35 thats not old in my opinion, but 35, Anthony Ervin won gold, 16 years after winning his first in the 2000 sydney games and only 19 then. He won but 1 100th of a second last night. Michael phelps, he tried two other swims and tied them, rather, for the silver in the hundredmeter butterfly. Impressive and his last swim of these games is tonight in the medley relay. Disappointment for the u. S. Soccer team where they were eliminated by sweden in a shootout that was so disappointing. Lastly for the first time in 48 years and get back to a positive note. The team usa fencing team bring home a bronze after beating italy. There are other moments we have been talking about. Liked on social media, go crazy about Katie Ledecky everybody else is talking about the diving pool that was green and it ended up having to be closed yesterday after it started to smell. Jamie, i agree, 35 is not hold and jeff is nodding as well. Yes just for the record. This morning, the career of one of baseballs brightest and most controversial stars remains up in the airplane.

Raining on his celebration. But in his first atbat. The designated hitter, Alex Rodriguez. Reporter cheers. Then a clutch piece of hitting. A base hit for rodriguez. Reporter the man who is another. Arod slapping a double to right field. In his last inning as a yankee, rodriguez took the field for the first time this season. After two outs, he was pulled from the game. Teammates and fans showing their appreciation. But his time in new york and Major League Baseball wasnt always so golden. Despite winning three mvp awards and making more money than any other player in history, most penalized. In 2014, he served 162. Game ban for his use of performanceenhancing drugs and use he denied to 60 minutes in 2007. For the record have you used steroid or human growth hormones or any other performance enhancing substance . No. After his performance sank for a low the yankees decided they had seen enough and opted paying him the 27 27 million th owe him through the next season. This is one of the greatest moments in baseball and to go out this was has to be a little embarrassing and he has even admitted as much. Reporter dont use the retirement just yet, but rodriguez isnt. In your heart, do you think youve played your last Major League Baseball game . Todd, i got to tell you, its going to be tough to top that. Thats a memory that i will forever. Reporter Alex Rodriguez will still, apparently, serve the yankees next season as a special adviser, working with younger players, but he is still able to sign with another team. Vinita, his only confirmed plans for the near term were to, quote, maybe have a couple of cocktails. That sounds like a good plan. Tony, thank you.
