A gruesome discovery in florida. Early today starts right now. Thanks for joining us. Im betty nguyen. Breaking news overnight. For the first time in americas 240year history, a woman is at the top of a major party ticket. But while the democratic primary out of california is still too early to call, senator Bernie Sanders refuses to back down. The front page of the New York Daily News says it all secretary clinton has clenched a majority of pledged delegates to become the Presumptive Democratic nominee for president. Taking new jersey and south dakota and new mexico Hillary Clinton makes history in breaking the next Glass Ceiling. It may be hard to see tonight, but we are all standing under a Glass Ceiling right now. Thanks to you, we have reached a milestone. First time first time in our nations history that aan clinton also made some of her strongest points against her likely republican opponent donald trump. Donald trump is tem rah mentally unfit. He is not just trying to build a wall between america and mexico. He is trying to wall off americans from each other. When he says lets make America Great again, that is code for lets take america backward. Meanwhile sanders held a final california rally after he won the state of north dakota. He won the montana primary. As the polls closed last night, sanders remained fixed on continuing his campaign, refusing to give up his fight. Next tuesday, we continue the washington, d. C. And then we take our fight for social, economic, racial, and Environmental Justice to philadelphia, pennsylvania i am pretty good in arithmetic and i know that the fight in front of us is a very, very steep fight. But we will continue to fight for every vote and every delegate we can get. Sanders will spend tomorrow in his hometown of burlington, vermont. The New York Times reports his campaign, though, is planning for large staff layoffs. He has scheduled a rally in washington, d. C. For thursday where he will also meet with top democratic senator harry reid and a new statement from the white house says at sanders request, the president and senator sanders will meet at the white house on thursday to continue their conversation about the significant issues at stake in this election that matter most to the white house said the president spoke to clinton and sanders and congratulating both for their campaign and thanking sanders for fighting economic and inequality. Donald trump last night used a teleprompter in an effort to stay on message and regain some shaky confidence. He reached out to supporters and the republican establishment. Here is a little of what ed. I understand the responsibility of carrying the mantle and i will never, ever let you down. Too much work, too many people, blood, sweat, and tiers. Never going to let you down. I will make you proud of your party and our movement and that is what it is, is a movement. It was trumps best attempt to calm the political waters after what some are calling the worst 72 hours in his campaign. As measured as that speech was, it was remains to be seen if it was enough to drown out the trump. Yesterday, Speaker Paul Ryan criticized trump for his comments presiding over the Trump University case. Claiming a person cant do the job because of their races is a textbook definition of a racist comment. Its absolutely unacceptable and do i believe that Hillary Clinton is the answer . No, i do not. My advice would be to talk about the issues that the American People care about and to start doing it now. In addition to that, its time to quit attacking various people that you competed with or various minority groups in the country and get on message. Trump also received his first unendorsement from Illinois Republican senator mark kirk. Kirk o after much consideration i have concluded that donald trump has not demonstrated the temperament necessary to assume the greatest office in the world. He urged fellow republicans to follow his lead. Reporter do you hope other members of your party do what youre doing now . I do. I think we should send a strong message to donnell that racist and bigotry will not be tolerated in our party. Trump launched a website defending his university. 98 percent approval. Com. He says it includes thousands of positive ratings from former Trump University students. Trump issued a longer than usual statement saying his words were misconstrued but did not apologize for his attacks on a judge of mexican heritage. Instead he said the following. However he still justified in questioning whether he is getting a fair trial based on prior rulings and he hit back against his republican critics last night. Some of the republicans and in all fairness, there are some of the people that i went through war with and i won and there is a lot of anxiety there. There is a lot of, anger, i guess anger. They come back and cant get over it so they have to get over it ideally. Whether or not they endorse me, they have to get over it and cant be angry for so long. Lets bring in best author selling. Lets talk about Bernie Sanders first of all. The senator is not backing down even Hillary Clinton has a majority of delegates. Will this damage the party . Will he utter the two scariest word in the clinton camp . Fight on . It depend on what he means by fight on, right . If he is going to literally no, that is very damaging to hillary. If he is going to get in there and try to effect a platform and push his issues, let that fight go on. Lets figure out what the two words mean, first. He is meeting with the president later this week on thursday. Also meeting with senator harry reid. The white house says that meeting with the president was at sanders request. What do you think is on sander agenda . He suggests a certain reaching out and peace making moment. I did detect in his tone last night. He wasnt quite as rough with hillary, right . He wasnt slapping her around the way he has the past couple of months so maybe he is looking for a gentler way out and we wont know that until thursday. Can the president or senator reid play peace maker here . What happens if sander doesnt want to play ball . So far he doesnt seem to. He doesnt seem to have thought anything beyond i want to be the nominee. Does he want to moment and focus onnish issues . I dont know if he has thought about that yet. In thinking about this as a whole, hasnt sanders really won here . He has made Hillary Clinton a better candidate, wouldnt you say . Hes had a huge impact on the party. I would predict the future nominees are going to look like bernie. Maybe not as old but from the progressive wing of the party. We have learned this year, betty, that is dui where the energy and passion is in the democratic party. Lets switch over to the republican party, because trump seems to have taken a bit of a hint from inside his party, right . We saw him give that speech. Had he a teleprompter and he was very on point and message and measured and all of that. Here is the question, though. Will it last . You know, history tells us to be very skeptical about that. There is a little bit of a caged animal in donald, right . He is there speaking in that measured way. How is he going to be tomorrow or the day after . I dont know. I have the sense that the the backlash is growing. Senator mark kirk as we just mentioned is his first unendorseme unendorsement. I like that word. Is this beginning of a maximum exodus, possibly . I think a lot more republicans are probably where paul ryan is or mitch mcconnell, expressing their disagreements and trying to distance themselves a little bit. But, you know, Hillary Clinton is the great unifier of republicans this year. Okay. Ellis, thanks so much. I appreciate it.
