>> a whole moose. >> who at the table will tell dr. david agus he doesn't need to wear a sweats at er at the b? >> you just did. >> i'll do it. okay, jeff. >> run of the greatest moments of the water last night for team good morning good morning to you. this is a live picture from raleigh and durham international airport. plenty of sunshine. low 70s in henderson and louisburg along with clayton. recall u for the better part of the morning we've been at 76 dreams also in lillington and raeford. durham warm upping to 77 right high today of 92. small chance for a shower or storm this aftern announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by aveeno. m naturally beautiful results. . don't let the little things get to you. get your beauty sleep. and use aveeno?

over the last two days, trump repeatedly called the president the founder of isis. conservative radio host hugh hewitt gave him a chance to clarify his comments. trump stressed he meant what he said. >> look. i know what you meant. you meant he create the vacuum and lost the isis. he is the most valuable player. i give him that award and her too. >> he is not sympathetic to them and hates them and trying to kill them. >> he is the founder. the way he got out of the iraq that was the founding of isis. >> trump argues that isis exploited the withdrawal of u.s. troops in iraq in 2011. he ignores the fact that president obama didn't set that date. in 2008 then president george w. bush negotiated a deal with iraq president obama promised voters he would end the iraq war. in trump said in 2008 the u.s. should declare victory and leave. >> donald trump is not the only person on the campaign trail having trouble with facts. colon and trump are keeping fact checking people busy. all of the things you're about to hear are not true. >> hillary clinton wants to essentially abolish the >> we have the most dynamic productive work force in the world. far none. >> she actually said outloud we are going to raise taxes on the middle class. >> the thing that has amazed me is the depth of the trash talking of latinos, saying that all mexicans are rapists and going after latino immigrants. >> the obama-clinton war has testimony was consistent and i have told the american people. that there were decisions discussed and made to retroactively classify the e-mails. >> joining us is bill adair and a duke professor and joins us from charlie rose country in raleigh, north carolina. good to see you. >> good morning, gayle. put together of untruths. before we get into specifics, how does this season compare to political seasons in the past in terms of factually challenged statements, if you will? >> well, it's been crazy busy for us at politifact. the magnitude of the claims and the magnitude of the falsehoods is remarkable and i think it reflects how the media has changed and so many more ways filter of the news media and that allows them to say things that often aren't true. >> donald trump says that he was being sarcastic with his latest comment. does that exempt him from the fact or fiction test? >> i'll tell you, we had originally rated his claim pants on fire, which is our lowest rating, the rating we use for falsehoods that are not just false, but ridiculously false. but, you know, it's really remarkable. here is a talking point that has been used for several days now. he doubled-down on it yesterday as you noted in the interview with hugh hewitt and now he claims he was being sarcastic. it's just truly remarkable. i think we need a new rating on our truth meter for this. >> you're talking about the claim that he had that barack obama and hillary clinton founded isis. our john dickerson says it's statements like that that trump conversation going. is that what he is doing? >> well, i think it is remarkable that he wants to keep the conversation going, particularly when i can't imagine that any communications strategist would say it makes sense. i mean, he is getting fact checkers and other journalists to point out again and again that his statements are false, and it just makes no -- it doesn't make a lot of sense. definitely -- he like baiting everybody. >> but, bill, i mean, is there some point to the notion that the checking system need to be refined at all when somebody says the sky is not blue? i mean, is there a need to fact check that? >> well, we are selective in what we fact check at politifact. we will fact check claims where people wonder and, really, is that true? it's legitimate -- you know, people hear that and say really, what role did that he play? we looked into it and we found that isis was actually founded in 2004, so four years before barack obama was elected, and those are the kind of things we fact check. it's not like we are social scientists. we are journalists and we are trying to satisfy our readers and viewers' curiosity. >> hillary clinton ino say that hillary clinton is dishonest. how does she stand up against the fact checking and that percentage as well? >> you know, it's interesting. her percentage of false and pants on fire ratings is about the same as other american politicians. i think it's 13%. by contrast, trump is at 55%. but i think what has happened so the statement with comey that you played earlier, you know, there was one where she repeated something she had said before that the fact checkers had said was false and people remember those big moments. >> bill, good luck keeping up with them the next three months. >> you're going to be busy! >> we are. >> thank you for your time. the gold rush continues for the united states in rio. michael phelps earned gold in the 200-meter individual medley in rio y 16-year olympic career. simone manuel was considered a long shot but she shared gold in the 100-meter freestyle and the first black female swimmer to strike gold in an olympic swimming event. >> 19-year-old gymnast simone biles made her own headline and earned the gold medal in the individual all-around and earned the highest score on vault. there is one vault, even the with details on the death defying stunt. good morning. >> sorry, guys. we are trying to keep it together out here this morning. it's not as impressive as those gymnasts. their skills pretty much all of them are amazing. but there is one move you were talking about called the vault of death that only a number of athletes have landed. vaulting begins with a sprint. then the launch. followed by fps simone biles may take the occasionally step, but from the start, she is a step ahead of the competition. seven-time olympic medalist shannon miller. >> i think simone, whether she wins five gold medals or what not, i think what makes her so it's known as the vault of death. it was first landed in 1999. this egyptian gymnast tried it in 2014 and nearly avoided serious injures. in rio, two are expected to attempt it. indian gymnast car is only one of five women to successfully land it. pubata is another. a 41-year-old mom and two-time olympic uzbekistan. they launch themselves into two and a half somersaults forward and ideally landing on her feet. >> it's one of those skills you're either on or you're injured. if you're on or off. >> reporter: tyler watts was a member of the fierce five who won team gold in london. height off the table. >> reporter: and in vaulting, when even one detail is off, it could mean disaster. >> you have to practice it every day and that could be so tolling on your body and that is where you risk injury. >> reporter: a french gymnast broke his leg last weekend in qualifying. or a gymnast flopped and crashed here. after the horse's height was set too low at the 2000 sydney game bundle of muscle with flip and twist and bend through the air and still stick a landing. >> it just gets better. >> reporter: sunday night's vault final is the first of four individual finals for the women. simone biles will compete in three of those. so at the end of next week, she could have five gold medals. gayle?

? >> i know. you and i talked about that. i have that too. >> i don't know if it's going to fit or whatever. there is an opportunity here one would think. >> there is an opportunity for a certain generation of millennials, they grew up shopping online and all they have to give them something more you can touch and feel the merchandise. that feels to me. i'm not that kind of guy because i want to put it on and make sure it fits on if i buy it because it's a half if i buy it on online. the kid, not how they shop. you have to give them another reason to come to the store. >> back to dana's point about amazon. recently they announced that they are taking over jet and lease a cargo plane to get the merchandise out. how in the world do you compete?
