Hallie jackson reports it was just one of the new attacks by trump on what has become a favorite target. They are the worst human beings in the world. Reporter donald trump now lashing out at a rival you wont find on any ballot. Im not running against crooked Hillary Clinton. Im running against the crooked media. Reporter today in tweet after tweet, trump questioning freedom of the press, unleashing on what he considers unfair coverage of his flailing campaign. I am who i am, trump writes. But thats exactly what the stories he doesnt like are saying. Hes not going to change. Hes appeared before 10, 15, 0,000 people. That shows you the campaigns working contrary to what the media is saying. Reporter still new polling shows clinton leading trump in florida, even putting deep red georgia into play. A defensive trump growing angrier at reporters, now echoed by some supporters. Youre a traitor reporter questioned on trumps temperament, his running mate argues theres time to turn it around.

Today its a favorite trump target, the media, under fire again. Hallie jackson, nbc news, washington. Still ahead tonight, an american gold medal sprinter pushing her limits in rio as never before. My interview with Allyson Felix still ahead. We have moved back down to ground level here at olympic park. People going to and from some of the evening events here. Attention here in rio has shifted to track and field where fourtime olympic Gold Medalist Allyson Felix got off to a good start here yesterday in her hunt to medal in the 400meter, despite the fact she told me shes still recovering from an injury she badly wanted to run here. Some wait years to hit their stride. For Allyson Felix, it takes just 20 seconds. Im the super, laidback person in real life. Have you to get to that aggressive place and kind of turn into someone else when it comes time to compete. Reporter that time is now. Felix has come to rio to challenge herself like never before. The 200 has always been my favorite race. I always call it my baby. The 400, its a new challenge to me. Definitely outside of my usual realm. Reporter for people who only follow track every four years, 400 is one time around. One time around. Reporter doesnt look that hard. For anyone who has ever run a 400, slow or fast, its one of the most grueling events out there. Reporter rio will be bittersweet, though. At the olympic track and field trials last month, felix, still nursing an ankle injury from april, saw her hopes of a golden repeat in the 200 come to an end. For felix, it was maybe one too many. Reporter she placed fourth, losing by the narrowest of margins. How many times have you run that 200 qualifying in your head . So, so many times. It was so close, but it was just unfortunate about the whole ankle thing and just not quite enough time. And the gun sends them on their way. Reporter a fierce competitor, felix has raced in every summer olympics since the 2004 athens games. Collecting four gold medals and two silvers along the way. Allyson felix gets her gold.

Happy birthday, grammy. Reporter felix was known as chicken legs back in high school, but her family calls her by a sweeter moniker. Shug. Reporter short for sugar . Short for sugar. Reporter is she hard on herself when she doesnt succeed, at least to her measure of success . Shes very hard on herself. Shes a real competitor. And she hates losing, but i think she loses gracefully. Reporter and as felix aims for the sky in rio joy, joy reporter close and deeply spiritual family keeps her grounded. We have a tradition before the competitions. She does call if im not there with her and we have prayer together. And we usually talk about things that are important in terms of the outcome of the race. It just helps me put everything in perspective. I love to have that prayer with her and just know that, you know, its bigger than track. Its bigger than winning a race. Its good to remember that. A great family, and nice spending some time with them. Allyson felix competes again tonight. Up next, how life changes after winning gold. Well hear from Gabby Douglas, now a veteran here in rio.

Im like, can you guys fly here tomorrow . I remember going into 2012, we were the ones pouring into her how talented she was. This time around she believes in her abilities. Reporter gabby has grown in other ways too. Shes taller. Now proudly topping 5 feet. And shes 20, making her an oldtimer in a sport dominated by teenagers. Its so funny because people think 20 is so old, but i feel great. Reporter who thinks 20s old, by the way . Im reaching my peak reporter in the Team Competition here in rio, gabby rose to the occasion. Amazing experience to come back. Reporter a return to the olympics is rare for a gymnast.
