Nominee. Paul ryan said it was racist for donald trump to claim that a Mexican American judge couldnt be fair in the fraud case against Trump University. Senate republican leader Mitch Mcconnell said it was just plain stupid. Trump said that the judge was biased because of trumps immigration policies, which include mass deportation of illegal immigrant and a wall on the mexican border. Speaker ryan spoke with John Dickerson today, our cbs news political director and the anchor of face the nation. Reporter you endorsed donald trump last week. Its been about a week. Hows that sitting . Well, he could have it could be better. I just, obviously, you heard me disavow the comments regarding this judge. I dont think those are appropriate comments by any stretch of the mind. Hopefully, this is an inflection point. Hopefully, a lesson will be learned here, and we can move forward with a better campaign. Reporter senator sasse, Hillary Clinton has called them racist comments. Comments are racist comment. Thats why ive disavowed them completely. What bothers me about the comment is it doesnt reflect who we are, what we think, or how we think as republicans. Its antithetical to what we believe in our principles. And so, hopefully, hell not only not continue to say these things, but learn from this and move forward and then offer the country a positive vision thats inclusive, that speaks to the peoples higher ideals. Reporter explain what that means its not what we believe. Because i think some people get confused about they hear labels and all that. What to you is we believe in equality. We believe that the notion that someones ethnicity or race affects the way they do their job is completely the opposite of what we believe. We believe in equality of opportunity. Look, the Republican Party was founded in a schoolhouse in ripon, wisconsin, by abolitionists. Our first president of the abraham lincoln. So we are the party of lincoln, the party of reagan, the party of equality, the party mobility. So that is what we think. Thats what we feel. And so when comments run contrary to that, its incumbent upon us as Party Leaders to call them out. Pelley the problem fair lot of republicans is theyre afraid they wont be incumbents for long. John, it seems like paul ryan was saying that he was going to marry donald trump with the expectation that he would be able to change him. Reporter yeah, well, he hopes hell change, but this is now the fourth time or so that paul ryan has had to rebuke donald trump, and what we saw today is really the crucible of the house speaker. He was at an event where he was laying out his agenda to fight poverty. The first plank in a multiplank effort to put forward the House Republican agenda. But before he could get to that, he had to make it very clear that the nominee of his party, the standard bearer, was totally at odds with the core principle of the party. He went of went all the way back to the partys founding. Now, how does that get fixed . Hes not quite sure. Th thats a truump of hope over experience. Pelley John Dickerson way key interview tonight. John, thank you. In a written Statement Today trump said that based on the rulings in the Trump University case so far, he is justified in questioning fairness, but he said that his remarks about the judge have been misconstrued as an attack on people of mexican heritage. Heres Major Garrett. Mexican or not mexican, i want him to be just all i want him to do is give me a fair shake. Reporter Donald Trump Backed off his racially charged againstses on gonzalo curiel, a Mexican American federal judge presiding over a fraud case against Trump University.

Reporter what do his mexican parents have to do with reporter earlier this week, trump told face the nation judge curiels heritage was an issue because he wants to build a wall on the traerlz ban muslim immigration, trump said a muslim judge could also be bias. Ots possible. Reporter all this continued to panic top Congressional Republicans who today awkwardly condemned trumps remarks as racist while supporting him as the presumptive nominee. Senator majority leader Mitch Mcconnell its time to quit attacking various people that you competed with or various minority groups in the country and get on message. Reporter Tennessee Republican bob corker, a potential running mate, pleaded with trump. Move away from pride and say, hey, we sort of stepped in it here. We need to move in a very differen direction. Reporter Illinois Republican senator mark kirk locked in a tough reelection battle said he wont vote for trump. Its time to come out and condemn a statement that was obviously bigoted and racist and does not reflect the party of lincoln they seek to represent. Reporter Chris Christie was almost alone in defending trump. I know donald trump. I have known him for 14 years, racist. Reporter republican donors and fund raisers aligned with trump are now reconsidering or back out entirely. Scott, republican senators lindy graham of South Carolina and jeff flake of arizona both said today they could not endorse donald trump. Pelley Major Garrett reporting for us tonight.

Even now, sanders isnt giving up. Theres nothing to concede. Secretary clinton will not have the requisite number of pledge delegates to win the democratic nomination. I will work for you reporter like every modern democratic nominee, clinton reached the magic number with a combination of pledge delegates and superdelegates, elected officials who are entitled to change their minds between now and july. I was proud to vote for Hillary Clinton. Reporter but the superdelegates we spoke to today, nancy pelosi and dick durbin, said clintons lead is insurmountable. Now, Bernie Sanders has made a valuable contribution to this National Conversation about the presidency, but the clear winner in this process in terms of the votes counted and cast will be Hillary Clinton. Reporter the nations most powerful superdelegate did not weigh in today, the president , avoiding any chance of stealing clintons thunder here tonight. As for sanders, scott, he was initially planning to head to vermont to reflect but now an aide tells me he will be in washington by thursday for meetings and, yes, a campaign rally.

Reporter in a searing letter that has now been read by millions online, the anonymous victim thanks the two men who saved her, but most of her words are aimed directly at turner a former stanford swimming star. The letter has had a particularly powerful impact on campuseses across the country. According to a poll last year, one in five colleg women say they have been sexually assaulted. Its difficult to read, but i think that theres so much value in that letter that everyone should read it. Reporter Samantha Skaller at Syracuse University was raped twice in her freshman year. She has read the letter from the stanford victim over and over. Theres a lot of Different Things that resonated with me, but first and foremost was the fact that she was directly addressing brock turner. I think that, that is the definition of what bravery looks like. Reporter the man who sentenced turn, judge aaron persky, happens to be up for reelection today. In spite of the anger over the lenient sentence, the judge doesnt have to worry, scott. Hes running unopposed. Pelley John Blackstone at stanford for us. John, thank you.
