Transcripts For WHDH Today 20160927

And Savannah Guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everybody. Welcome to today on a tuesday morning. Well get the numbers later today, but they were saying this might be the most watched debate ever. Maybe 100 million viewers. That would get us into super bowl territory. There was a lot of hype. In some ways it lived up to it although i think if you look at the coverage this morning most people agree no knockout punch. Am about it. Well get reaction to the debate from the two Vice President ial nominees. Senator tim kaine and governor mike pence in just a little while. First our decision 2016 team has it covered starting with nbc National Correspondent peter alexander. Peter, good morning. Reporter good morning to you. I think youre right. It was an historic night. Largely lived up to the hype. A night of contrasts on policy, personality and preparation. Donald trump relying heavily on his instincts. After their opening remarks, pleasantries were quickly abandon abandoned. Donald trump challenging Hillary Clinton on a washington insider. You havent done it for 30 years. I have been a senator and secretary of state. Reporter clinton dismissing trumps attacks. Of this evening im going to be blamed for everything thats ever happened. Why not . Over 90 minutes, clinton accusing her brash opponent of being racist, sexist and xenophobic. On trumps past comments about women. This is a man who has called women, pigs, slobs and dogs. And on the birther controversy. He has really started his president was not an american citizen. Reporter the debate highlighted the contenders liabilities. Trump defending his refusal to release his tax returns like president ial candidates have done for decades. I will release my tax returns against my lawyers wishes when she releases her 33,000 emails that have been deleted. Reporter the billionaire admitting on multiple he didnt pay any federal income tax. He didnt pay federal income tax. That makes me smart. That means zero for troops. Zero for vets. Zero for schools or health. Reporter the republican nominee scolding clinton over her email scandal. I made a mistake using a private email. Thats for sure. That was not a mistake. That was done purposely. Reporter trump raising eyebrows trying to convert what viewers see as his biggest than she does. No question about that. I also have a much better temperament than she has. Reporter one of the nights fiercest exchanges, on the fight against isis. At least i have a plan to fight isis. Youre telling the minute everything you want to do. You tell the enemy everything you want to do. No wonder youve been fighting isis your entire adult life. Reporter and on trumps disproven claim he iraq war before it began. Donald supported the invasion of iraq. Thats proved. Reporter the later it got, the more heated the exchanges. Where did you find it . She has become a u. S. Citizen and you can bet shes going to vote this november. Okay. Good. Let me just tell you reporter by nights end clinton believes her own debate preparation paid off. This debate. And yes i did. You know what else i prepared for . I prepared to be president and i think thats a good thing. Reporter unlike in past campaign years, theres no written agreement between the two campaigns that would effectively lock them into participate in each of the next two debates. While Donald Trumps adviser Rudy Giuliani said last night that if he were running, he would pull out of the next debate. Trump told nbc news late last night, that he is committed to showing up for the nexteb matt and savannah . All right, peter. Thank you very much. Lets turn to chuck todd and nicole wallace. Good morning to you both. If you watched this until 9 30 and turned it off, a lot of people felt trump is having a very good night. It did seem like his energy and his answering of the questions waned over the night. Would you agree . The lack of preparation showed itself in the last half of the debate. Out of gas at the end. He seemed to run out of steam. I think that goes to a lack of preparation because he took the bait on almost every little thing. The last half of the debate i cant remember a substantive exchange on issues. I remember him defending himself. It became more about himself rather than specific issues. I dont think it was as time went on, i thought in each particular section his first responses to the twominute fairly much back to his talking points. But when the followups came, he just went back to his talking points. So there seemed to be maybe preparation but a lack of depth there. I mean, understatement of the day. Listen, i was involved in preparing a couple of different candidates who were not known for their debate acumen. Night. George w. Bush who had a disastrous first debate against john kerry and had to recalibrate. The trump camp was not trying to spin this as a good night for them. Their word was missed opportunities. Missed opportunity after missed opportunity. I have to say both of these things can be true. She was excellent and she exceeded expectations that were very, very high for her. And his poll numbers will likely not be affected by a terrible performance. Perfect segue. Is it going to move the needle for either of them . If it moves the needle for anybody i think its more likely to move it for her than him. Supporters probably loved the atmosphere that he created. Oh yeah. He got her with tax return and email question. There are a group of voters that are swing voters, moderate republicans, suburban republicans, nothing he did last column. These are people pondering clinton. Temperament and trust are a lot of words were hearing. On the subject of trust and her email situation. I thought she did something very smart last night. When she was asked last night, she answered two or three sentences and stopped. She didnt do what shes done in the past going on and on she said yesterday we learned so much from the reviews we got and response we got from the commander in chief forum. They had ten days, two weeks, to completely recalibrate. I think they felt like what they had to do was answer that question and move on. They did that last night. I will say to him, he didnt get on offense. The problem voters are willing to give him a pass for not being a politician. Voters are willing hes graded on a curve because voters answers questions. He couldnt get himself on offense and thats why early on he did on a couple of issues. On a couple issues he did. She was speechless almost when he said so when you vote on tpp, that means president obama did she was speechless. He has her on trade. Watch focus groups in ohio and pennsylvania but cybersecurity comes in and he misses the email hit. Next debate what does he have to do differently . Hell do much better. He has to do better than last night. Easier said than done. Well talk about a new low bar. He can, i would imagine hell be better. He needs to watch videotape of himself on mute. Split screens didnt help him. Dont go anywhere. Senator tim kaine. Hillary clintons running mate. Senator, good morning. Good to see you. Good to be with you. Thanks. If you were a millennial and you were watching last night and toying with the idea of voting for a thirdparty candidate because you want some sort of change to be brought into the process, did Hillary Clinton say anything last night that you think would sway them in her direction . Well, yeah, matt, a she laid out a detailed plan about how were going to grow the economy including significant support for education and bringing down College Costs and secondly, she drew a clear distinction between herself and donald trump on a fundamental issue with millennials which is she accepts Climate Science and believes we need to do something about Climate Change, and she pointed out that donald trump believes Climate Science is a hoax. But hes said it over and over again. This is a fundamental litmus test for them. They want to know what youll do to deal with climate issues and the planet. So she drew a good distinction. She was asked about the emails. Tried to dispatch with that question rather quickly. Donald trump did point out correctly that several staffers were given fifth amendment immunity against criminal prosecution as part of this she didnt explain it. Can you explain that . You know, i thought that there was a pair of trust issues that were put on the table for each of them. The email question was hers to answer. She did. She just looked right in the camera and said i made a mistake. I apologize for it. I take responsibility. Theres been an fbi investigation. They determined nothing more needs to be done. On that immunity issue. Was the birther issue. He wouldnt apologize. His explanation of why he did it made no sense. Why he persisted in it for five years. You got to see a trust issue put before each. One candidate said i made a mistake. I learned. Im sorry. One refused to apologize and refused to take responsibility. I thought that contrast was sharp. Both you and secretary clinton over the course of the last quite long period of time said you dont believe donald trump has the temperament to be president and chief. Talk to me about his temperament last night . What did you see that either bolsters your claim or shakes it . You know, i dont think he was prepared. In terms of the specifics, he offered very few specifics on any policy issue. He did attack. Thats true. In terms of policy, he didnt offer specifics with the exception of his big tax plan, which is huge cuts for folks at the top. He didnt show a command of like questions about his tax return. And he showed that he was easily rattled. Probably i thought hillarys best moment was when donald trump got challenged about comments that hes made about her looks that she doesnt look president ial. He tried to change that and said i was talking about her stamina. Hillary said you go to 120 countries and you sit before a congressional hearing for 11 hours and then talk to me about stamina. In the split screen i was watching at that moment, she looked like she was ready for another 11 hours and debate and he looked like he was out of gas and leaning up against the ropes. That showed a temperament and preparedness issue and really worked to hillarys advantage. Senator, we appreciate you being with us after a long night. Thank you very much. You bet. Thanks, guys. In the next half hour well talk to Donald Trumps running mate, mike pence. Relief but also that they felt they had a good night. No doubt. It is interesting. You brought up the millennial issue first with them. It was clear they had two pieces of business they were hoping to do. One is the way they had this prepared ad with the former beauty pageant contestant who donald trump apparently offended. The minute she launched that hit on him, within ten minutes of the debate being over they were out with an ad. Problems in the obama coalition. Enthusiasm with latinos. Ill be curious to see if that worked last night. A week from tonight is the Vice President ial. Is that ever about the Vice President ial candidates or is that just surrogates for the president ial candidates . I mentioned sarah palin in the last segment. In that case it was. Usually an opportunity to redirect the momentum. Than stellar first debate against john kerry. Vice president cheney was able to turn the momentum back in his direction. It becomes pivotal when one side or the other has lost momentum. If mike pence has a great night, the trump team can turn momentum back in their direction. Interesting. You mention strategy. Pieces of business that the clinton team wanted to accomplish. On the other side, you did see trump hitting some sweet spots for republican voters. He talkedbo just mentioned fifth amendment thing. He talked about janet yellen at the fed. Do you think thats a good strategy in terms of expanding . I think their goal was to use this to unite republicans and right before the debate he put out a new list of potential Supreme Court nominees. I thought that actually was a missed piece of business last night. Thats been the most important rallying cry for many republicans is the Supreme Court. You know, again, this goes to preparation issue. There were ways he could have inserted some issues and he just whiffed. Time and again he whiffed at opportunities. Chuck and nicole, thank you so much. Well have a lot more for you guys and how this may reshape the race in just a little while. Lets take a turn and get a check of the weather from al.

Independence usa pac is responsible back now at 7 30 on a tuesday morning. Its the 27th day of september, 2016. Its also the morning after the first allimportant president ial debate. Millions watching last nig. Going head to head for 90 minutes on the most explosive issues in this election. We talked to tim kaine in our half hour. Mike pence is here and well talk to him in a moment and todays First Campaign moment happened before clinton and trump took the stage. Their spouses were at the center of attention. Noticed the setting was different from 11 years ago and bill clinton attended the trump wedding. One of the Big Questions heading into the debate, how was trump going to handle himself . That temperament question. Nbcs Hallie Jackson is still at hofstra. Good morning to you. Reporter for donald trump it was all about whether he could come off as president ial under that very big spotlight and in the end it was talk about his temperament thatnd viral. Maybe not for the reasons you think. Temperament the top trend of the night with twitter and facebook lighting up when donald trump said this. I have much better judgment than she does. Theres no question about that. I also have a much better temperament than she has, you know. I have a much better reporter hitting his a temperament problem. Reporter the first general election president ial debate, a kind of test with trump kicking it off seeming sarcastic. With all fairness to secretary clinton, yes, is that okay, good. I want you to be very happy. Its very important to me. Reporter for both candidates, it wasnt just what they said but how they said it. Their expressions, appearing composed and sometimes amused. I have a feeling by the end of the evening ill be blamed for everything thats ever happened. Reporter compare that to trumps more animated expression repeatedly interrupting clinton and even rolling his eyes. Were you mad . Some said you seemed angry. I was not angry at all. Reporter in the spin room after the debate, trumps team call his restraint. I was going to Say Something extremely rough to hillary, to her family. I said to myself, i cant do it. I just cant do it. Its inappropriate. Its not nice. Reporter the candidate himself pleased he held off on certain topics like bill clintons past affairs. Im very glad that i didnt mention it because chelsea was in the room. Indiscretions by bill i didnt think would be appropriate to president ial . I think they each looked president ial to their own supporters in the course of this. I think what both candidates tried to do was to appeal to their base voters. If this was a debate that was supposed to persuade people in the middle to come to either side, i doubt if it accomplished that. Reporter so the question now given all this, will trump prepare any differently for the next debate . To do what theyve done which is let trump be trump. Were joined by indiana governor mike pence. Governor, good morning. Nice to have you with us. Good to be here. You saw the debate last night. You were in the hall. Was this donald trump at his best or is there room for improvement . It was a good debate. I thought donald trump had a great night. What the American People saw is what crowds of tens of thousands aree and thats someone that speaks straight from his mind and straight from his heart and focused on issues that American People care about talking about jobs and trade economy and trade deals that will work for the american worker. I was just excited to be there and excited to see donald trump lay out that positive vision for america. Quite a contrast to Hillary Clinton who spent two to one the amount of time attacking my talking about her plan. I thought he struggled on the birther question. He was asked what happened last week that made him step away from that question and declare once again that barack obama was born in this country and had some unusual answer about he accomplished his goal of getting obama to release the birth certificate but that came five years ago and he persisted with this birther question. Can you explain that because he didnt. I think the people that persisted with this i president ial campaign was really the media. He was involved as well with innuendo and questions. Ive been campaigning with him for the last two months and watch his campaign unfold the last two years. Donald trump has been focused on rebuilding our military and having a stronger america on the world stage. He had multiple opportunities to put it to rest and declined. Multiple opportunities. The reality is that and he said this last night. This began long before he walked ago. It began literally in the 2008 campaign. You know, i think the reason why hes made the connection that hes made with millions of americans and the reason why you see the momentum in this campaign is even showing up in polls around the country is because donald trump is talking about the issues the American People care about and last night that was in high relief. Heres a candidate in Hillary Clinton who has been on the public stage for the last 30 years and basically this was a status donald trump showed the energy, the leadership to be able to carry a message of change washington, d. C. And strengthen this nation. Lets talk about another issue. Last night Hillary Clinton said donald trump thinks that Climate Change is a hoax perpetrated by the chinese. Mr. Trump responded i did not, i did not, i do not say that. In point of fact if you look on twitter this morning, youll see a tweet from donald trump that states the concept of global u. S. Manufacturing noncompetitive. Was that not true . Did he tell a lie last night . What he said was that by the way was a flippant and joking comment. If you look on twitter, there are probably at least six occasions where he calls Climate Change a hoax. What Donald Trumps position is the hoax is some bureaucrats in washington, d. C. Can change the climate of the earth. The other piece of this is donald trump and i both kno Barack Obamas plans on Climate Change are going to continue to cost millions of american jobs. The big win last night for donald trump is that he really focused on jobs. He focused on not the tax increases that Hillary Clinton is advocating but tax relief for working families, small businesses, family farms, making america more competitive and that means pushing back on this radical Climate Change agenda that Hillary Clinton wants to he didnt do something that hes done during the campaign and that is bringing up the marital problems of the clintons. Chelsea was in the room. It wasnt appropriate. Seemed proud of himself for that restraint. You will have to imagine chelsea will be in the room for the next several debates. Do you agree with that strategy . The whole evening was an avalanche of insults by Hillary Clinton. It was remarkable. I was seated it was one line after another leveling personal attacks at donald trump. What the American People saw last night is the word you used. It was restraint. For the president of the united states, that person has to have the temperament, they have to have restraint to deal with a wider world and challenges facing the American People, and i couldnt have been more proud of donald trump he hasnt shown the restraint on the campaign trail on that subject. I think what people saw last one very, very scripted politician, 30 years in public life and here on the other side you saw a businessman, a doer, someone who spent a lifetime building, speaking straight to the American People. I thought donald trump had great night. Governor pence, thank you for getting up early with us. We appreciate your time. Well see one week from tonight. Lets bring chuck and nicole back in. This is weird because governor pence is still here. He says his running mate drew clea and had a good night. What did you think . Hes a very important person in the trump world because he made the two best points that his candidate made last night. The best arguments against Hillary Clinton is that shes been there for 30 years and that donald trump has spent this campaign on the trail, on the stump, listening to ordinary americans. But donald trump didnt underscore those points last night as well as governor pence did this morning. It was interesting. Talked this morning. He is not denying it wasnt a good night now. There were a lot of insults in the air and looks like they want to blame Hillary Clinton for the tone of the evening. Interrogato interesting to hear him say that. Right after the debate we go to the spin room. Thats where the surrogates go. Nicole you have been at this rodeo many, many times. Donald trump himself went into the spin that could be interpreted a couple different ways. Was he trying to clean up his performance and immediately knew that or was it just he loves the cameras and couldnt stay away . He was in the spin room after many of the gop primary debates. I think he likes the spin room. It is, as you said, traditionally a place for staffers to do that sort of work. He has so far liked doing that work for himself. That wont hurt him. I think his problem is the governor in here this morning message at the same moment the candidate was on another news program doubling down against miss universe. By the way, you saw governor pence. Hes got a running mate that works hard defending him. Does a pretty good job doing it. If you based a lot of your campaign, chuck and nicole, on being a winner andt he says hes a winner. You have a performance last night where its hard to walk away saying i was a big winner last night. What does it do to your mojo Going Forward . After all of his setbacks, when he lost the wisconsin primary and horrible august. He was at war with a gold star family. Its hard to even say that sentence. He was able to recalibrate. Sometimes in his inner circle who want him to maked adjustmens have their influence and people that want donald to be donald win the day. Theres a long history whether the president or a candidate coming back from a first debate and coming back strong. Well know that if in two days we hear news that they got donald trump to watch his performance. They got him to watch on mute. Remember that right after al gores bad first debatein a way of trying to reassure supporters, hes working harder this time. I wouldnt be surprised in two days we get that kind of conversation from the Kellyanne Conways and governor penses of the world. Youre excused. Let us take a look at the rest of the debate schedule. Vice president ial candidates will square off a week from tonight. There are two more president ial debates still to come. The next on october 9th in st. Louis. That one in las vegas. From politics to the weather. Al is standing by his weather board. Its great having so many people here. Were going to cool down a bit around the great lakes into the northeast. Going to feel more fallike which is okay. Look at these temperatures going into latter part of the week. 69 in green bay. New york city dropping into the upper 60s. 80 degrees in raleigh. As we head toward the weekend, look at this. Boston, youll be at7 53 in atlanta. 48 in kansas city. All right. Time to break out the chris good tuesday morning, everyone. Starting off with wet weather, a click quarter to a half inch of rain before drying out this afternoon, cloudiest across southeastern mass this afternoon. Numbers not bad. Low to mid70s later today. Tomorrow we change it up. A breeze off the ocean. A couple scattered showers and some patches of drizzle, but well get some dry stretch, too.

Its about what happens when they get home from school. Today National Investigative correspondent jeff rossen has a hidden camera investigation. Kids hop right on the on tablet. Can be a great baby sitter. We know that. But kids are spending too much time staring at all kinds of screens according to the American Academy of pediatrics, seven hours a day on average. Doctors say it makes them feel rewarded so they keep on staring. It could also impact their social and verbal development too. This morning, youre about to see just how oblivious kids can schools out. And these kids are zoned out on their ipad. Entranced by the screen. How entranced .

Im out of props. Time to bring cami out of her trance. Did you see the clown . Whos the clown . Your brother was a clown. He did. He had rainbow hair. Rainbow wig. Polka dots on. You didnt see that . Nope. Not at all. She is so cute. For years experts say kids should be spending less than two hours on media devices but theres actually some developing news he pediatrics about to change their recommendations next month say well do away with time restrictions because tablets are part of our kids lives. Instead help them pick better, more educational apps and engage with them when theyre not on these devices. I was just texting my child to say are you watching . Because this is a problem in my house. It is. By the way, when jeff walked over you didnt realize he was us. Absolutely. An eye opener. Not a bad baby sitter and cheaper than one. This is 7news now.

If you are a military caregiver, theres no uniform, theres no camouflage jacket, not even a cape but do you serve our country every day. Like jessica. You are a wife or maybe youre a mother or a father or a friend. A family member, a loved one, who is taking care of our wounded military veterans. You rarely ask for help but you deserve our support. Jessica allen is one of those hidden heroes. Im excited to say that ive initiative as well along with Nbc Universal and our Parent Company comcast. Tom, jessica, good morning. Nice to have you here. Look at her. You say you want to humanize the term military caregiver. Why . Its the people who love our wounded veterans that come back. These people need you want to call it 24hour a day care. 24 7. How hard is it to go to the Grocery Store . If youre going to college trying to get a degree. How hard is it to do daily life all the time. Organized chaos. People talk about how the lives of the Service Members change after they are injured or wounded while serving our country. Talk about our situation and how your life changed. My husband and i met in 99. We were married in 2001. Hes been to kosovo, korea, afghanistan and in afghanistan he stepped on a device and lost both legs and his elbow. My husband is missing both legs above the knee and his arm is fused in a 90 degree angle. Full dexterity in his right hand. Limited feeling. Back injury, hearing loss and it just keeps going. You never thought twice. This is just something you were going to do as a spouse and this happens with friends and other family members all the time. Did you think there were a lot of other people like you across the country . No. As an infantry wife you prepare for one of two options. They come home safe or they come home in a box. The army does not prepare you for in between and in between never ends. I have to look at what my day will look like and pray my husband doesnt further injure himself. Why did you think you could have an impact on this . I covered some of this turf as a puts on other peoples clothes and emotional impact has never left. It comes down to a chance in order to serve and i think help out in a very pragmatic and understandable way. Theres nothing unique about it. Lets come up with this organization that will put these people together and rally their resource. Simple concept. I asked you if you felt alone. I want to go to washington. Senator Elizabeth Dole is an integral part of all of this. Other military caregivers from all across the country. Senator, good morning to you. Good morning. Talk to me about the people youre surrounded by. These are wonderful Dole Foundation caregiver fellows. They are taking care of the wounded, the ill, the injured, many of them are spouses, young spouses in their 20s, 30s, theyre also mothers, dads, in brother or a sister. And im so proud of them. Theyre representing all of the 50 states and puerto rico. Senator, tom just joked he got involved in this because he has some experience with this in his fake life. You were really involved with this because of an experience in your personal life. Well, you know, my husband, bob, was wounded at the end of world war ii but he has managed wounds but about five years ago he was ill and was hospitalized at walter reed for about 11 months. I was there day in and day out and what i saw just opened my eyes to something i had no idea about. I found a young wife sleeping by her husbands bed having both legs amputated. Down the hall was mrs. Stewart from mississippi. She was taking care of her son putting of the hospital in his room every day to encourage him because he was about to undergo his 40th operation. And i began to take the caregivers that i got to know there at walter reed down to washington to get them out of the hospital room for a night and i became much more familiar with the kinds of challenges that they had. Worrying about how they were going to manage the legal, the financial matters for the system with different structures because of the multiple illnesses and injuries. Had to do something about it. Thats a good way to kind of segue back to you, tom. What can people do . Well, theyre getting involved at hiddenheroes. Org. The thing that i cant stress enough is there are military caregivers in you will be it will be astounding how a tiny bit of help can alter the lives of those people. A ride in the morning. Help with the kids. A job offer. Businesses that can Work Schedules that make it easier for people like jessica to take care of the kids, chaz, the husband, as well as get on with the rest of life. This is really the unwritten act three for a lot of these people. Its going to define the future for an awful lot of americans. In this cause. Jessica, what a pleasure to meet you. Senator dole, we thank you for your work and support in this initiative as well. Thank you very much. And again, for more on hidden heroes, go to today.

Before we had to talk about a connection between birthdays which is true but its about choices we make moving forward. I dont think a spoiler alert applies when the show has been out with a week. Episode one ends with a big twist. Is that something that we can expect week to week . There will be twists occasionally. Theres a little bit of a reveal at the end of this episode tonight that airs. Its not a show that sort of relies on that. The writing is elevated. A little comes off each week. I mentioned you have been entertaining people since since i was 15. 17 years. Does it feel better now . Yes. You didnt let me ask the question. Ill tell you what i was thinking. When youre young and wide eyed and its kind of almost child star, it may not mean as much to you as it does right now. Thats precisely it. I think im so much more comfortable in my skin now and and appreciative of everything. I dont take any of it for granted. I dont think i did before either. When that machine is rolling and that ball is rolling, its hard to really take stock of whats happening. When it comes to a halt all of a sudden and picks back up, thats when youre part of the workforce my dad used to say to me. I like that. Mandy moore, great to have you here. You can catch this is us tonight at 10 00, 9 00 central here on nbc after the voice. Up next, soccer stars on the planet, carli lloyd, is here. It was doggie destiny was mr. Bonejangles expecting the perfect toy at an amazing price . Of course not. Hes a dog. You never know what youre gonna find, but you know youre gonna love it. We are back with soccer superstar carli lloyd. Shes scored winning goals for team usa in both the 2008 and 2012 olympics helping her team take home backtoback golds and she followed that up with a hat womens World Cup Final bringing the title back to the u. S. For the First Time Since 1999. Now a new book called when nobody was watching. Good morning. So good to see you. So interesting. We reel off your stats. Two gold medals. World cup. Amazing career. The book as title suggests, its about a hard fought journey. What do you mean by that . It is. You know, i dont think i would i had to call crawl my way to the top. Its about perseverance and obstacles that came my way. Its not truly just a soccer story. It can inspire so many people that want to be great, you know. They can do it if they put their mind to it. You wonder if some people are just born great. When you read about what your coach and you quoted him in the book. He told you, not weak, your character was poor. You make excuses and find people to blame. That somehow motivated you to turn the beat around, didnt it . I think there was no question about my dedication at an early age. I loved the game of soccer. I needed someone to help navigate me through life and through obstacles. I respected him. When i first met him, he was straight up with me. You werent mad when he said for 12 minutes. I took in everything that he said. I was like a sponge and just listened to him. Worked really hard. You talk a lot about soccer culture. You said early on, i dont think you used the word click, but it could be a girls club. What do you mean by that . I think when you get a bunch of high level athletes, females, in a room together, 20 of them as im sure you guys know, we can be drama at times. I think thats just the competition within the room. You know, the team is awesome. It wouldnt be this Magnificent Team if we werent all like that. There were some challenging times and some moments where i was shedding tears in my hotel room. I look back and it was great. I wouldnt change a thing. Like you said, the book isnt only about soccer. Its about family and things like that. You say in the book youve had a strained relationship with your family since the beijing olympics. Is it a little weird to have written about it and know that about your life . Absolutely. I think when i first was preparing to write this book, i wasnt going to include this. My family situation. In discussing things with my writer, it is part of my journey. I think to so many other people whether youre a parent reading it or a kid reading it, they can hopefully learn from it. It is part of the journey. I had to include narrator over and over its been their agenda anything to defund planned parenthood. Kelly ayotte and Washington Republicans voted 6 different times to defund planned parenthood. Theyre on a crusade to Block Services New Hampshire women and families depend on basic womens healthcare. Kelly ayotte and Washington Republicans have put Defunding Planned Parenthood at the top of their agenda. And its time for that to change. Im Maggie Hassan and i approve this message.
