Please welcome David Letterman. And the late night legends big return. David letterman back on stage for the First Time Since retiring. Its so good to see famous people again. I missed wearing makeup. Jimmy kimmel oneonone with his idol. We do say good morning, america. How about that moment last night, David Letterman making that big return, michael. Makes you feel good to see David Letterman out there first time on the late night couch before leaving. Big evening for jimmy kimmel. He says he feels about letterman the way most people feel about beyonce. I dont think hes shaved since he was off the air. Some proposing a bipartisan deal to restore funding for obamacare. The president sending mixed messages as he faces questions about the phone call he made to a widow of a fallen soldier. Cecilia vega starts us off. Reporter he said its the hardest thing he has to do as commander in chief but now its this phone call to this widow that you just mentioned that has him facing criticism this morning. President trump made good on his promise to call the grieving families of those four special ops soldiers killed during a siege in niger but this morning his message to one grieving widow is sparking backlash. President trump told the wife of Army Sergeant la david johnson, quote, he knew what he signed up for, but when it happens, it hurts anyway. Thats according to Florida Democratic congresswoman Frederica Wilson who says she listened to the call on speakerphone. This is a soldier who gave his life for his country. He is a hero. Reporter the call came just as Myeshia Johnson was on her way to the airport for the arrival of her husbands remains. Pregnant with their third child, johnson laid her head on his flagdraped casket and gave a final kiss. It just hurts me to know hes not going to be with us. Reporter overnight the white house declined to address the details of the phone calls with the families instead saying in a statement the president s conversations with the families of american heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice are private. It comes on the heels of the president s false claims that other president s including president obama did not personally call the grieving families of fallen soldiers. The traditional way of you look at president obama and other president s, most of them didnt make calls. A lot of them didnt make calls. I like to call when its appropriate when i think im able to do it. Reporter and tuesday in the white house, President Trump blamed president obama once again implying obama did not call his chief of staff john kelly in 2010 when kellys son was killed in the line of duty in afghanistan. I mean, you could ask general kelly, did he get a call from obama . You could ask other people. Reporter now, general kelly has made it repeatedly clear to reporters this is something he does not want to talk about. The death of his son. Understandably so. The white house says that he never got a call from president obama in the wake of his sons death and while obama aides do not dispute that, they do, george, tell us general kelly was invited and did attend a breakfast here at the white house for gold star families where he sat at the first ladys table. But that was six months after the death of his son, george. As you said, general kelly himself prefers this all remain private. Cecilia, thanks very much. We have to keep that in mind. More on that deal to restore funding to the Affordable Care act. Just last week, President Trump said he was going to slash crucial subsidies. Critics accused him of sabotage. Now the president is sensing mixed signals and our Congressional Correspondent mary bruce has the latest from capitol hill. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning, robin. Yeah, lots of mixed messages from the white house on this one. The president says obamacare is dead but now appears to support a deal to stabilize it but says its simply not enough. Just last week he cut off 7 billion in subsidies that helped millions of lowincome americans pay for their coverage. Now, republican Lamar Alexander and democratic patty murray have reached a bipartisan to deal to extend those same subsidies for two years in exchange for giving states more flexibility. The president this morning is commending their solution but the white house still hasnt said if the president will definitely sign it. So what are the chances that this new deal could become a reality, mary . Reporter yeah, robin, this is far from a done deal. Up leer on the hill its not clear if Republican Leaders will support it either. While the white house and Congress Debate this premiums for millions of americans could still rise. The question then becomes, who will the American People hold responsible for that . The president is already pointing fingers saying if premiums rise blame the democrats. Robin. Thank you. Robin, one more note from washington. The president issued a warning to senator john mccain after mccain said the quote halfbaked spurious nationalism backed by trump is unpatriotic. You heard what he said yesterday, senator mccain. Yeah, well, i hear it. And people have to be careful because at some point i fight back. Im very, very, very nice but at some point i fight back and it wont be pretty. More from meghan mccain, the newest cohost on the view and let me begin with you. You heard what the president said about your dad. Where does this go next . You know, i think the fighting between them just comes from the fact that they have deep ideological differences of perspective on how america is run. How the Republican Party should Work Together. But on a personal note i dont know about you but im exhausted with the infighting within the Republican Party. Im exhausted with the attacks on my father. I dont know if you guys have heard but my father is fighting glioblastoma right now and theres nothing that could possibly happen or threaten me and my family that could be more painful than what we are going through and whatever threats are being levied im telling you, right now theres nothing theres nothing that could possibly happen that could possibly be more complicated. I just have high hopes that someday President Trump and the rest of the Republican Party can find some Common Ground together where if you have any kind of difference of opinion on the future of the country or the party, youre not just automatically going to be threatened in return. Yeah, and the questions are trying to come to some agreement on big issues Like Health Care and taxes even as these personal attacks go on. Uhhuh, and, again, i have high hopes that it will happen. Im a little confused about the bipartisan agreement with democrats regarding the Health Care Bill because when you have people like rand paul and mike lee who are more on the libertarian side of the party who really just want repeal and dont want any replacement, that was part of the problem with the original bill. So i dont understand if youre a smorer of President Trump and you are part of his base, he ran on repealing and replacing obamacare and now for them will a compromise with democrats be satisfactory . I dont see how its going to be possible. It doesnt seem like that all make sure dad is calling for compromise he is. Again, he is and my father obviously was the infamous down vote but i just dont know if it will be satisfactory to his base. Let me bring in matt dowd on this. Matt, it does come, the president is trying to get republicans rallied behind tax reform, trying to get them rallied behind something on health care. Yet these selfinflicted wounds continue starting with how he talked about the fallen families. Well, every single time that you think donald trump has turned a corner and hes going to do something that is going to be positive for the country and politically positive for himself, he does another thing that reduces his Approval Ratings and drops him down. Keep in mind, george, the only time that donald trump has risen in his Approval Ratings in his entire presidency was when he had cut that deal with nancy pelosi and Chuck Schumer on the debt ceiling and so if he can reach an agreement on daca or reach an agreement on taxes or Health Care Reform then i think his numbers go up. The problem he has as meghan alluded to, the republicans are no way unified on what he should do. The democrats are pretty solid on this. But the president has to figure out a way to work with congress which he hasnt done since january 20th. And the one place republicans, meghan, are unified, tax reform. Can they get it through. If we dont get some kind of win coming forward into midterms it will be very dangerous for people up to reelection. I certainly hope so but such a fractured party, theres so much infighting i wouldnt get too far ahead of myself. All right. Would you give your father our best . Thank you. He is doing good. I mean hes all Things Considered and we are so blessed and so happy to have the Health Care Team at nih. Were so lucky. I just want to bring more awareness to glioblastoma and brain cancer. Part of the reason im working at the view. I hope you all come on at some point. Hes doing well and appreciate the thoughts and prayers everyone has given my family. It is deeply meaningful. We saw your father and joe biden together. I dont agree with him on much but hes a wonderful man. One thing you do agree on, you fit right in on the view. I was pretty nervous. Thank you very much. We appreciate you coming here. Thank you so much, meghan. Well talk about some money news right now. A lot of eyes are on the stock market this morning after the dow reached a major milestone on tuesday crossing 23,000 points for the First Time Ever before closing just below that mark, Abcs Paula Faris is on wall street with more. Good morning, paula. Reporter and good morning to you, michael. The market is on fire right now. A lot of us are going to be tempted to peek at our 401 k s this morning but as you heard the dow surpassed 23,000 for the First Time Ever and just to give you a sense of how hot things are since election day, weve seen a 25 increase in the market. 66 record highs and its up 4600 points so why is the market as strong as it is right now . A couple of reason, number one being Solid Earnings reports. Another reason, news of a gop tax cut plan. That makes significant progress yesterday when senator john mccain said he would back a bill, the senate is expected to vote on this a little bit later this week and trump continues to tout the largest tax cut in the had is tri of our country so what does that mean for you . Heres what it means. If the American Family had 10,000 in the market on election day this morning theyre waking up, its worth about 12,600. There are question, though, how long this bull run could last. Were in the midst of an eight plus year run. No signs it will be slowing down any time soon especially with news of this possible tax cut but there is concern the market is too hot and melts. Too much of a good thing, too fast. The best longterm strategy, michael, look at your money but dont touch. Well send things back to you. Thats the hard thing, look at it but dont touch. A lot of people wondering how long this could continue. Well see. From wall street and turn to that state of emergency declared in florida ahead of a speech by richard spencer, Victor Oquendo is in gainesville with more. Good morning, victor.

Trying to normal our own house ideals of the altright. I dont want it to be a fringe move but want it to be a dominant movement. Reporter he was set to speak at a unite the right rally at the University University of virginia. That ended in violent clashes between protesters. One woman killed when a man drove a car into a group of protesters. After that, uf denied a request for him to speak citing imminent threats but the schools president last week said he was shocked to learn that uf is required by law to allow mr. Spencer to speak his racist views on our campus. And uf will be footing the bill for all the added security. Some 500,000. This is the Phillips Center where he will speak.
