Roger ailes, the mastermind behind fox news, force ed to resign in the wake of the Sexual Harassment charges. Just what did he walk away with and how will they fill his shoes . It doesnt get much bigger than this. Pop star celine dion set to take our stage this morning and she brought a supersized crowd with her today, friday, july 22nd, 2016. This crowd. Good morning, everybody. Welcome to today on this friday morning. Were going to speak quietly because savannah got in very late last night after a long speech at the rnc. I was going to say happy thursday. If you sleep less than two hours, its a continuation of the day before. A long week. A lot to talk about this morning. Donald trump delivering the most important speech of his life. Depending on you ask saw putting america on track and others see it as gloom and doom. We have it covered starting with nbc National CorrespondentPeter Alexander in cleveland. Good morning. Reporter good morning to you from here in cleveland. This wasnt exactly Ronald Reagans shining city on the hill or george w. Bushs passionate conservative. It was Donald Trumps order and the border. A focus of his speech last night in a country where nearly 70 of americans say the u. S. Is headed in the wrong direction, trump offered an indictment of the status quo and insisted hes the only man to fix it. Donald trumps crowning achievement basking in another historic moment. I humbly and gratefully accept your nomination as president of the United States. I am your voice. Trump cast himself as an angry and all powerful national defender. I alone can fix it. I will restore law and order to our country. I am going to make our country rich again. Reporter trump outlining his Firm Approach to fighting crime and terror. The crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon and i mean very soon come to an end. Reporter offering new specifics on his proposed muslim ban. We Must Immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism. Reporter the gop nominee hammering Home National esteems presenting the country as a dark place. The billionaire striking a populist tone, too. I have joined the political arena so the powerful can no longer beat up on people who cannot defend themselves. Reporter clocking in an hour and 15 minutes, longest speech in modern political history, trumps frequent target, his democratic opponent. This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton. Death, destruction, terrorism, and weakness. Reporter with the arena jeering Hillary Clinton, trump showed restraint. Lets defeat her in november. Reporter referencing the killings at a orlando nightclub. And selfdeprecating. Im not sure i totally deserved it. Reporter ivanka introduced her father speaking directly to women and moms. At my Fathers Company there are more female than male executives when a woman becomes a mother she is supported and not shut out. Reporter after trumps unforgettable convention, a rousi rousing conclusion. I am with you. I will fight for you and i will win for you. Reporter democrats were quick to respond including Bernie Sanders whose name was mentioned twice last night putting this out on twitter. He said i alone can fix this. Is this guy running for president or dictatodictator . Hillary clinton said im with you saying not included, women, africanamericans, lgbt people, muslims, latinos and immigrants. Matt and savannah, 3 1 2 months until the election. 72 hours until the democrats take the stage. Here we go again. Peter, thank you very much. Lets turn to Nicole Wallace and chuck todd. A late night. We were all there. It seems like the speech was well received in the room. How do you think it was received in the living room . I think they saw a leader in that room. Theres a lag in digesting what he said. Reading coverage this morning its clear that where gop voters are now is not where theyve been for the last two decades. I said last night the party i was a part of for two decades died in that room last night. They want this isolationism and protectism that mr. Trump offers. What do you think . I dont think he broadened his appeal. I dont know how many people there are people that wake up and say, wow, the country is deteriorating but a lot of people didnt recognize that country that he described either. I think its a very polarizing speech. This wasnt the shining city on the hill. This wasnt morning in america. He sounded like a wartime president last night. Very dark. Youre just used to even when weve had difficult elections where we feel like weve hit bottom, whoever is running is trying to have a sunny atmosphere. Have a sunny personality. That was not there at all. Now, maybe the electorate is going to respond to that. What hes been so masterful at doing is speaking to peoples anxieties but where hes fallen short time and time again is laying out a solution for getting us to a better place. That was true of last night as well. Hes betting that what weve seen over the last three weeks is what well see over the next three months. Didnt seem it was a convention about tried and true general election pivot. It does seem that hes still talking to Republican Base voters and is that because thats what this election is going to be . Less about the middle anymore and more about turn out your people on both sides . Its because it was on his todo list. He needed to bring the Republican Party together. He didnt arrive Hillary Clinton is going to arrive at her convention having for the most part united the Democratic Party behind her. He hadnt done that yet. I think he did achieve that this week. Best moment of the rnc and worst . Ill pick the same moment. Ted cruz. Best and worst. It was worse because the party was not united coming out. Best moment for donald trump was his daughter softening these rough edges around him. For me the most uncomfortable moment was watching ted cruz booed off the stage as a human it was just so uncomfortable. Most important moment 5, 10, 15 years from now if donald trump is not elected president will be the ted cruz moment. Democrats will be the center of the political universe next week in philadelphia for their convention. Youre looking live at the stage set there. The podium revealed. Big week for democrats next week. Nbcs Kristen Welker joins us with more on that including a possible vp pick that could come as early as the next few hours. Reporter thats right. It could, savannah. We could learn Hillary Clintons vp pick any time today. She campaigns in florida. My sources tell me that they point to virginia senator tim kaine but with a lot of names still in the mix, clinton could pull off a big surprise. With the search for Hillary Clintons vp pick in its final hours, the buzz is mounting about virginia senator tim kaine today. Are we ready for hillary . Reporter a former governor who also has National Security experience, kaine emerged as the front runner. Some progressives accuse him of being too protrade and soft on wall street. On thursday, kaine kept his cards close to the vest. Im a happy senator and not looking for another job. Reporter there are other big names in the running including agriculture secretary tomvil vilsack. He deflected questions. Im here to talk about an issue i care deeply about. Reporter there are questions about vilsacks ability to rally young voters. Cory booker has the same resume but is known for his impassioned rhetoric and Bold Thinking as new yorks favorite mayor. Kate snow asked booker on whether he plans to campaign with clinton today in florida. Florida is not on the agenda. Reporter clinton is choosing from a crowded field which has included labor secretary tom perez and massachusetts senator and trump attack dog elizabeth warren. Lets be really, really clear. Donald trump does not have the answers. Reporter the Clinton Campaign hoping to grab headlines with the announcement now that the Republican Convention is over and all eyes are on philadelphia where its the democrats turn to take the stage. And clintons main goal at her convention will be to counter some of the attacks leveled at her this past week. Also, shes going to try to win over those important undecided and independent voters. Back to you. Kristen welker in orlando this morning. Thank you. Welcome back our sleepy pal here. With her Vice President ial pick, chuck, Hillary Clinton gets a chance to grab headlines from cleveland and rnc. Is there a headline grabbing b candidate in the mix we just heard . If its not tim cakaine, it would be headline grabbing because we assume it is. If she doesnt go kaine shell go cory booker or perez. They dont want to risk making the leftist some uneasiness with kaine. We all were struck and we all watched. There was a lot of antihillary sentiment at the Republican Convention. Are we going to see that level of antitrump sentiment at the Democratic Convention . I think we will from her surroga surrogates. I asked Bernie Sanders once if he would vote for Hillary Clinton and said yes and went on for three minutes about everything horrible about donald trump. I think sanders is going to be an important surrogate to her now considering how much trump invoked sanders last night. If youre running dnc and listed to three days of attacks against Hillary Clinton, what worries you . The fact that the trust issue does stick. That you get people that sit there and say i just dont trust her. I dont know if i can vote for her. I want to go third party or Something Like that. I think they have to be careful. I wouldnt spend the entire convention Bashing Trump but promote her a little bit. The Republican Party came home this week and for the most part rallied around donald trump and so i think if she made the calculation she might face a divided Republican Party that a lot of that republican womens vote might be available to her, i think the Republican Party largely came home to donald trump in cleveland. Go get some sleep. You stay here. Thanks, guys. Breaking news overnight, the search for Malaysia Airlines flight 470 may soon be over. They decided to stop searching for the plane.
