kaitlan collins starts. now see you tomorrow citing the source tonight, it is primary night and america with results coming in right now in a closely watched for public embrace and virginia, where former president donald trump is out for revenge and a handshake between a hug between to dictators. >> so we are thing here new images that are coming in from president putin in north korea were also expecting to get new details from the summit of these two nuclear-armed strong men a behind the scenes, look at donald trump and his time on the apprentice. the author who sat with donald trump for hours after he left the white house is here tonight. i'm kaitlin collins and this is the source as we come on the air tonight. right now, the results are still coming in from several high-stakes primary races that are playing out across america tonight. the big test is whether revenge is resonating with republican voters. there is one race in particular that is exposing divisions, serious ones within the maga movement that would be the race and virginia's fifth congressional district. congressman bob good that you see here is the chairman of the house freedom caucus. he's an ultraconservative who has supported donald trump's policies. and you might recall seeing him here in new york when he showed up to support trump during his criminal trial but unfortunately for the gentleman from virginia, trump is very, very angry at him, despite how he wrote in his motorcade when he was here in new york. and it's all because bob good committed the cardinal sin of initially bagging ron desantis in the gop presidential primary earlier this year bob good two is actually bad for virginia and who will stab you in the back like he did me but it's not just trump who feels that way as you heard him say, there he's been saying that bob good's stabbed him in the back. >> former house speaker kevin mccarthy also wants payback for goods role and kicking him out of this speaker's office we need a speaker who will fight for something. >> anything besides just staying are becoming speaker no. >> i should know when i talked about those fractions in the maga movement, goods still has support from some big maga names, like matt gaetz byron, donalds, trump's own former chief white house strategist, steve bannon. >> but all of that may not matter because we are about to find out tonight. >> just how strong donald trump's grew up is on the republican base. and if his opinion is the only one that matters this raised pits good up against the trump-backed state senator in virginia, john maguire. those polls closed at 7:00 p.m. eastern. and here's where the results stand right now, 66% of the vote is n, so we still have more to come but look how close this race's. you can see john maguire right now has 50 50.6% of the vote. bob good, is it 49.4%? look how close those margins are. it is incredibly close as we are watching all of this tonight, this test of donald trump, who was endorsed the name you see there to the top, john maguire against bob good, the chairman of the very influential house freedom caucus. my source tonight to help put these numbers into context that we are seeing here as we are watching all of this sentence, a senior data reporter, harrington and harry, i mean, obviously this rate is so close right now at this moment but razor, razor type, my goodness, gracious. you rarely i get excited on nights like this, where you know, you watch these old videos and i see how tight the races were in like election 2005 finally, we get a race tonight, as tight as we have it right now. yeah. and so obviously, the question here is about trump's endorsement and how powerful that's ultimately going to be. because really there's basically no policy differences between these two republicans on anything substantive. but, but donald trump is backing one of them and not the other, correct. >> use, as you mentioned, the incumbent committed the cardinal sin of initially backing ron desantis. >> how dare he how dare he, and you looked at primary so far this season and trump's endorsement has been as good as good as gold before tonight, only one candidate who he back lost their primary look at that at eight wins to one, and i went back. i looked at 20:22 who i looked at 20:20 olympic 2018 more trump endorse candidates. our winning this year than in any year prior of at least as a percentage. so far. so tonight is an ultimate test of trump's power. >> yeah, that's really interesting because the other part is it lightening speed after ron desantis got out of the race, bob good came it did endorse donald trump's, so he did try to make up for it. clearly, it didn't mean a lot to trump, but the other thing here that matters if bob good goes down is it's an incumbent being defeated. >> it's exactly right. i feel like we have a power matchup here, right between trump's endorsement and the power of incumbency. and so far this year incumbents have been winning all over the place. look at this re-nominated 228, just one has lost and that was to a fellow incumbents. so you rarely, ever see incumbents loose. so this evening, we have this thing where you see you incumbents rarely lose and you'll see trump back candidate israeli lose one of those two powers is gonna go down tonight. which one? we'll have to wait and see. >> okay here, i've a question about a few other races for you. on standby because i know you're watching all these numbers. >> no, i am. we have a projection. we're going to make it here, but we also have some context here of this big race in virginia that normally we would not be talking about, but because of the dynamics here that we just laid out, it matters and we'll see what the implications of it are, what we can read from the results by political sources that are also here tonight, cnn senior political commentator and former republican congressman adam kinzinger. scene and political commentator and former white house senior policy adviser under president obama, ashley allison, as well as cnn's senior political commentator, scott jennings, who is also a special assistant to president george w bush, and a senior advisor to mitch mcconnell adam kinzinger, let me start with you though, because in this race in virginia, bob good in john maguire are both pitching themselves as the one who's in lockstep with donald trump. but they're basically are no policy differences between the two of them. i mean, how we're voters really supposed to make a decision here? >> well, in my mind, it's like would you rather have dysentery or the flu? so you got to pick that out and ultimately at least one of them is going to lose. that's the good thing really. i mean, look just from the raw politics of it, it does show the power of donald trump's endorsement, but it also shows that donald trump never for gives you especially if somebody that is more loyal to him and this is the point. this is how you build a call. you do this, you make everybody scared to turn against you, and that's what you're seeing right now. >> i mean, scott he does raise a good point there that you, bob good. tried to rectify his decision to back to say it as we talk to him about it here, he wrote in the motorcade with trump, he came out and endorsed him probably faster than we saw anyone else do it. but but what does it say about trump's rafah? if you break with him on even one thing so let's use a party boss. i mean, the thing about donald trump is that he has been the president. he's been the nominee of the party three times and he is a true party boss. and you can think that's good or you can think that's bad. but at the end of the day, he's remade a political party in his image and he likes to enforce discipline inside of that political party. and we've got an incredibly close race going on in virginia. i don't know who's going to win but if not, but for donald trump's intervention there, i suspect good would have been good. you know, that everything would have been fine and trump intervenes and all of a sudden, it's a real race. and so we'll see what happens. but i concur with what's been said. this is the test of the power of donald trump at the fact that it's even erase at all shows just what influence he has with primary voters in the money pouring into this was also really notable. i think it was $10 million from outside groups. i mean, john maguire this was fundraising quite well, and ashley just from a political perspective, bob good, he's the first city. if he goes down, he's the first sitting chair in the house freedom caucus is decade long history almost to be defeated. and i wonder what, what this says also about the house freedom caucus tonight yeah, for some time, the tea party to freedom caucus were the folks that really were able to pull the party to the right. >> and now it seems that donald trump has a stronger hold on. the republican party than that freedom caucus did at one point, i will just say though that donald trump has endorsed many candidates that have won in primaries but in 2022, he indoors many candidates that were not as successful. so he has a strong thumb on the scale and primary races, but not necessarily always evident in general election. so that's that this district is going to go democrat, but it's something that also watch in congress. >> and what does it, what does it say if bob good pulls this off, if he is able i mean, because we're looking at how closely this is right now. john maguire has a little bit of an edge on him at this moment, we'll see how that changes throughout the hour, but but what does it say if bob good ones i don't think it's going to say much because bob good will immediately solute donald trump makeup will do everything he can to make up with donald trump over the next few years. >> it's really, i mean, from an actual policy of the country, it doesn't make a difference who wins there and the interesting thing you mentioned, $10 million spent in this race let's think about that. two identical candidates 10 million spent for one reason, donald trump, because bob good did not have sufficient loyalty to donald trump that's what it comes down to. so i don't think it's going to make a difference in the politics. but obviously if good goes down, donald trump will grow quite a bit. >> congressman, what about the kevin mccarthy aspect of this? because that is also a factor here? hill yet as a factor, kevin, it's all personal for him. >> he's going after, which i would do if i was kevin as well. and so i think he hasn't had a great track record and who he's going after. but this lobby suite be a win for kevin mccarthy who has no political future. so i'm not sure the benefit of a win here, but it'll probably feel pretty good for him to be successful if in fact maguire pulls this off yeah in scott, can i ask you about something else that happened today? >> we're donald trump, you he's on the campaign trail. he's in wisconsin a critical state for him. he's still trying to clean up common city made behind closed the worst republicans about milwaukee where the republican convention will be held next month. listen to what he said i love the lucky i was the one that picked milwaukee. >> i have to zion people that they show. he doesn't like my work and i love milwaukee. i said, you got to fix the crime. we all know that you've got make sure the elections honors. but i'm the one that picked for lucky mets really going out of the way to stay the he's the water bigtable walkie after he was, you know, traffic milwaukee behind closed doors and it's crime rate last week yeah. good. good for him because i think we're going to have a lot better time as republicans and milwaukie, the democrats are going to have in chicago when all of a sudden done with these conventions, i'll guarantee you, we're going to come out of the republican convention singing the praises of milwaukee and the democrats are going to come out of chicago if thinking, why did we put this here? this was the worst idea we ever had. so i'm glad he cleaned it up. it was good for him. it's a close race and wisconsin ed, he needs all the good vibes even get there we'll say how many good vibes there are. >> scott jennings, ashley allison, carson, adam kinzinger, great to have you all here. thank you. >> cnn's breaking news we do at breaking news for you as cnn has now confirmed that the baseball giant willie mayes, has died. >> maze of course, is one of the most exciting players in baseball history. a two-time most valuable player award winner who got the presidential medal of freedom. it was awarded to him by president barack obama back in 2015. harry entin is still here with me here. i know we were just talking about these races, but i mean, this breaking news that that one of the biggest giants in baseball as died, an ultimate hero, 660 home runs, you know, my father was a huge new york giant baseball fan back in the day he was a big fan of the 1951 squad. willie mays join that club as a rookie jump-started what was in my opinion, the greatest comeback? to win a pennant in history more than that a great center fielder. 1954, vic wertz, right, going back over the shoulder catch and then throwing it back towards the infield, help the giants win that ball game sweep out world series, the last world series they want in the city of new york a hero to everybody, a hero to my father, a hero to me. in back to new york in 1972 huge san francisco giant player, just a giant of the game, caitlin. >> well, i mean, this is going to prompt so many just memories of seeing him and also just how different the game is now compared to when he was breaking into it and what it looked like, it completely true. >> he said that the way he learned and i hit a curve ball was he played stickball in the streets and he the ball bounce and that was how he learned a hit, a curve ball. could you imagine a major league baseball player today saying i learned how to create a curve ball by playing stickball out on the streets. you wouldn't have heard of it. and more than that, he was someone who came up through the leagues, right? obviously, those stats have now been fully integrated. allele he's to the ability that we're able to do so, so far into the major league steck, he actually added a couple of hits a few weeks ago into his major league stats. so he's someone who's linked to the game. he i believe was the last living member of the 1951 new york giants of the last living member? of anyone who took part in the shot heard around the world game back in 1951, of course, between the dodgers and giants game three of that play off, he is just somebody who is linked to baseball history. he, it's definitely going to be missed by a lot of baseball fans, including myself. >> and of course, you know, the most important fact about him is that he was born in alabama, of course, and grew up playing in birmingham as well. on that note, just to think of that life and what you just laid out there. i do want to take a moment now, a cnn is confirming the news that willie mays is dyed. >> see that's andy scholes has a look back at the illustrious life that he did live starting when he was born in alabama from the time he set foot in the major leagues as a 20-year-old rookie for the new york giants 1951 to his last days with the mets, 22 years later. no one played like willie mays born in alabama here and the nickname, the say, hey kid for his enthusiasm towards baseball. he played in 24 all star games, was twice voted national league mvp and slammed 660 home runs to rank sixth on the all-time list. >> when i got to hit up a one spawn new york was like my family they embraced me like my mother and dad says and my dad says, when you go to new york and a baseline app, utah on the other cheek because if you don't take oh, shoot, you mays was as dominant in the field as he was at the plate, winning 12 gold gloves in game one of the 1954 world series. his over the shoulder catch was considered the key point in the giant shocking sweep of the indians and has gone down in history as one of the games most memorable catches people talk about the catch and i don't want to stay and why? >> because i did many things other than just can't catch a ball. but when you find stuff like that and it was theory, if they had to pick a highlight and they picked yeah, i guess that one for the highlight in 1958, maize made the move out west with the giants and batted a career high 347 years later, mace had one of his best seasons clubbing 52 home runs, winning a second mvp award during the 1972 season, the 41-year-old was dealt back to new york to play for the mets and what became the last at bat of his career, mays hit a game-winning single knee 12th inning of game two of the 1973 the world series, putting an exclamation point on a one of a kind career. >> but perhaps even greater than his performance on the field was the legacy he left office playing his first major league game just four years after jackie robinson broke baseball's color barrier, mayes help to carry the torch for future black baseball players and athletes. >> and he inspired his community for generations to come. >> a few years ago, willie road with me on air force one. i told them then what i'll tell all of you now is because of giants like willie, that someone like me even think about running for president joining me now on this breaking news as cnn sports analyst, christine brennan and christine, i mean, just looking back at the course of his career, i mean, willie mays hit 660 home runs he had 3,200 over 3,200 hits and 23 mlb seasons. i mean, he was someone who was kind of the gold standard of he could hit, he could run, he could throw, he could really do everything out there on the diamond well, that's right. caitlin really just five tool player, right. just had every skill and i know you're a big sports fan and it's growing up for me, i would play baseball with the boys and toledo, ohio. and it was mickey mantle and it was willie mays. but as we get little kids, you were at bat and some kid was telling the ball to you and it was willie mays our mickey mantle that we were emulating even as little kids and i think with willie mays it's been mentioned, of course, he started in the leagues, the fact that he was such a star in new york for seven years. and then expansion to the west coast. and so he goes to san francisco and he plays for the san for let's go giant. and that's when baseball was expanding across the country. and it is a black man from alabama is you said, who is the face of the game that was so extraordinary at that time in america, we're talking of course, the late 50s into the 60s, into the 70s. he comes back to new york to the mats desk where he finishes his career. both coasts a giant of a player, one of the greatest of all time. and in fact, the players of his generation, caitlin, when they talk about the greatest player they ever saw to a man, they mentioned willie mays yeah, he just add such flare. he made the game looks fun. christine brennan, great to talk to you about his legacy will be looking more at that up here in a moment where you are following this breaking news that willie mays, his died we are continuing to track that here also following what we're seeing happening overseas, that dangerous alliance as we are watching the first pictures and first images of president putin's arrival in north maria. and what they are planning next, my inside source tonight, amanda has been hours also with donald trump as he relived his glory days during the apprentice hey, mom, how many should i decorated? have ran have blue that's a really tough call. >> that's, john, king from cnn. >> let's look at the data. >> your county leaned red eye 15 points in the last presidential election. >> however, looking, at the latest polling, you're going to need a lot of those purple sprinkles. >> how thi
