Her long battle with alcoholism. The only thing that will make you feel better is more alcohol. The 20 20 anchor reveals what fueled her drinking and how she took back control of her life. And good morning, america. Vargas with diane sawyer is so raw and real and a lot of hope in there. We are very proud of her. This is a disease that affects millions. She came out and very forthcoming about it and i think its going to help a lot of people. First we begin with the race for the white house. Both donald trump and Hillary Clinton sitting down to answer questions about leadership and the military. Their answers and attacks giving a preview to the upcoming debates. Moment but first Abcs Cecilia Vega is on the campaign trail in charlotte, north carolina, with the latest. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter robin, good morning to you. That first debate now a little more than two weeks away, but overnight both sides facing off over what it takes to be commander in chief and the one thing that both of these candidates can agree on, neither side is ready for the job. It was the first time they shared a stage and though never on it at the same time, donald trump and headtohead on National Security. The republican candidate blasting American Military leaders. I think under the leadership of barack obama and Hillary Clinton, the generals have been reduced to rubble. Reporter and openly discussing the classified intelligence briefing he received as a candidate. There was one thing that shocked me, what i did learn is that our leadership, barack obama, did not follow what our experts and our truly when they said to do. Reporter in the nbc forum overnight clinton making this promise about americas role in the middle east. We are not putting Ground Troops into iraq ever again and were not putting Ground Troops into syria. Were going to defeat isis without committing american Ground Troops. Reporter while trump would not reveal his plan. If i win, i dont want to broadcast to the enemy exactly what my plan is. Reporter wha shortage of, attacks. Clinton saying her vote for the iraq war was a mistake while slamming trumps shifting position. The decision to go to war in iraq was a mistake. Now, my opponent was for the war in iraq. He says he wasnt. You can go back and look at the record. I was against the war in iraq because i said it was going to totally destabilize the middle east. Reporter thats not what trump said in an interview in yeah, i guess so. I wish the first time it was done correctly. Reporter another mistake she admitted to, those emails. It was a mistake to have a personal account. I would certainly not do it again. I make no excuses. Reporter while trump defended a controversial tweet about sexual assaults in the military. In 2013 trump writing only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men and women wouldnt back down. Well, it is it is a correct tweet and by the way, since then its gotten worse. Not to kick them out. Part of the problem right now is nobody gets prosecuted. Reporter this morning president obama is weighing in from overseas saying trump is not ready for the oval office. I dont think the guys qualified to be president of the United States. Opinion is confirmed. Reporter well, you heard it there. The president is in laos and he is really blasting donald trump. This morning he said the republican candidate has, quote, either contradictory or uninformed or outright wacky ideas. George. Not holding back at all, cecilia, thanks very much. Lets talk to Hillary Clintons Campaign Manager robby mook right now. Robby, thanks for joining us this morning. Were you hurricane with how the forum went last night . Absolutely. This was an opportunity for voters to see the difference betwee clinton both has a real command of the issues but also the experience and the judgment to be our commander in chief and what we saw from donald trump was that he is simply unfit for the job. He insults at our generals. He said that men and women were not capable of serving together in our military. He showered praise again on Vladimir Putin despite matt lauer walking through all of the all of the regrettable that difference and saw only one candidate was prepared to be commander in chief and thats Hillary Clinton. Heres what Reince Priebus said. Angry, defensive, no smile, you uncomfortable. Upset that she was caught sending our secrets. This is what is so incredible and challenging for the republicans, the fact that the only criticism they could have for Hillary Clinton is that she didnt smile enough serious forum on our veterans, on our National Security and on the job of commander in chief. Just tells you everything you need to know. Donald trump simply didnt come prepared and hes not going to be prepared to serve as president and that was abun dpaptsly clear. Hillary clinton lost the coin toss so she went first and donald trump went second. Let me give you a chance to respond to a couple of things. The intelligence briefing he got showed barack obama did not to do and could tell from the body language they were not happy. Your response . Well, first of all its concerning that donald trump was, you know, was potentially sharing information that he learned in his briefing. I mean, but what was really scary, george, was he keeps talking about the secret plan that he has to defeat isis. Well, it was clear last night, theres really no plan at all, and thats whats scary is, first of all, he doesnt seem to have the judgment or in chief but he doesnt have any plans and he certainly didnt have command of the issues or the questions that he was being asked. Hillary clinton said last night she would never again put Ground Troops in iraq but there are Ground Troops in iraq. Well, i think what she was referring to there specifically was the volume of troops that had been there before. But, again, Hillary Clinton is actually released a plan, a detailed plan on how to defeat isis. Donald trump has said he has but, again, last night it was clear there just isnt a plan and hes trying to hide from that and he lashed out at our nations generals when he was asked for details. So, again, theres no plan there. And donald trump has shown us yet again he is unfit to serve. Robby mook, thanks for joining us today. Thanks so much. All right, george, lets bring in jon karl on this discussion about the forum last night. Its evident how the president , what he feels about what he saw last night. Yeah. About the candidates, were where they stand on certain positions. Look, the first thing is this was a rough night for Hillary Clinton, robin. I mean 13 minutes of questioning was on her emails. And despite what robby mook said there, you could tell she was irritated by this. She was legalistic, she was defensive. Donald trump got off relatively easy, seemed confident. Seemed at ease, but he was let off relatively easy although i think he will have things to pay glowing terms and, you know, he went on to attack the generals, the seen officers in the military. Not only did he do that, lou unprecedented is it for a candidate to share classified information from an intelligence briefing. That was bizarre. Did he reveal too much. Ive been covering president ial elections for a long time. Ive never seen a president ial candidate talk about one of those briefings. He didnt reveal any qualified information but implied they were on his side. It was strange thats the these Intelligence Briefings are done by intelligence professional, not political people at all, not policy people at all. They dont weigh in on policy. Thats why it was sort of surprising to hear him characterize what they were saying in that way. Yeah, they cant defend themselves and implies they were basically on his side and cant speak about this at all. Big difference from a debate. They did go backtoback. Each it will be more interesting to say, i guess its coming up on september 26th when the opponent goes and whether they decide to jump in. I think that what it showed is both have a lot of prepwork to do before the next debate. Hillary clinton needs to be able to handle these tough she still doesnt have a good answer on emails and donald trump will not get off so easy in the next debris. You think with Hillary Clinton because she hasnt had any press conferences or that time huge. For two reason, robin, first of all, its less back and forth. Went 270 days without a press conference. Not a lot of tough interviews. If she had been doing that the questions would have been asked and matt lauer would have maybe felt less of a need to hammer over and over again on emails and would be more at ease with the questions. Jon karl, thank you. Do more press conferences. Yes. Of course, thats going to be it. Practice, practice, practice. What they need to do. Now to that flooding in the midwest. Well turn it over to ginger who newton and its messing up the south and ginger is here with that. We are learning that tucson had almost a months worth of rain in just one day as the remnants of what was newton passed over. Didnt make history as that Tropical Storm but some got up to a half foot and spewing that ongoing flash flooding. Thats from milwaukee, wist, a lot picking up 3, 4, 5 inches quickly and this morning you can see it on the satellite that pools up. Chicago back to kansas city really ruckus morning. That moisture going to pool and, again, thats why we see flood watches south of davenport, east of wichita. The next story is right here. New york city, philadelphia, dover, all in a heat advisory. Itll feel close to 100. Look at some of those heat indices, 106 in dover. That is hot. O. , ginger, thanks. A shooting sparking outrage in chicago where surveillance 71yearold man there watering his lawn. Abcs alex perez is in chicago with the latest. This comes after chicagos deadliest month in decades. Reporter yeah, thats right, george. This morning were trying to figure out what exactly investigators are looking at here. Now, what weve learned from investigators who are following this case is that the 71yearold man was minding his own business when suddenly he was fighting for his life. This morning, Chicago Police on that took down this Senior Citizen and then shot him. The entire ordeal captured on tape by a neighbors surveillancecamera. He was out watering his front lawn tuesday when two men ride past him on bicycles and moments later one of those men returns wrestling him to the ground and shooting him in the abdomen then rivaling through his pockets and stealing his wallet. Its absolutely ridiculous. Yard. Reporter injured laguardia gets himself to a neighbors front door and calls for help. The unbelievable video another sign of the recordbreaking violence plaguing some parts of chicago. In 2016 nearly 3,000 shootings so far. More than 500 murders. More than new york and los angeles combined. Its not a police issue. Its a society issue. You know, improve otherished neighborhoods, people without hope do these kind of things. You show me have hope and ill show you a man who picks up a gun and ready to do anything. Reporter theyre hoping this video leads to an arrest. If you can identify your child on there, do the right thing before you get the knock on the door. Reporter laguardia is doing better and his wife says hes in fair condition. Thanks very much. You spent time with nba star dwyane wade. His cousin was gunned down recently. Right there on the street. And he says, hes going to do what he needs to do and others need to do to take back their community. He is going back home and says it reminds him what it was like growing up back in the 90s when there was a lot of violence of as well. The most important thing he needs, he nis, is mentors.

These are the headquarters of ohio. It cost 32 million to build this back in the 90s but the company is so desperate to sell it they lowered the sale price to just 5 million but no takers and been on the market for over a year. Maybe if they took the hams off. Im thinking the same thing. Maybe. The lands got to be worth 5 million. Maybe a little bit longer.
