Big night last night, huh . Very big. How does it feel to be up there . It was incredible. Nrv incredible feeling. I put a lot of work and passion into that speech as you can tell. Every single word. Every word you wrote . I love my father and he is the greatest guy in the world and im not a politician and never plan on to be but a great moment to be up there. You didnt give the only speech last night. A speech from ted cruz as well. The papers morning are full of this. Attempt at unity fall short and Gop Party Unity cracks. You had seen the speech. Your father said he saw the speech two hours before and knew there was not going to be an endorsement. Why give him the stage . Listen. I think the speech was the speech was good. I think the fact that this whole Convention Hall had 25,000 trump fans in here, right . What he didnt do, when he didnt do the right thing. He signed a pledge at the beginning of the process and when he didnt do the right thing, people went crazy. I was in the green room behind the stage and about to go on and give my speech. This room, ive never seen or heard boos like that. The whole house and auditorium was literally shaking with boos. How do you get booed out of your own convention . By your own delegation. By your own delegation. It was unbelievable. I think the people in there arena spoke for themselves. I dont have much comment on but i think the people in this room spoke. You were pleased by that . I thought it was a little bit classless. If you go to a convention, you go to support or dont go at all. I think thats just politician 1 on 1, right . Here is a larger point here is party unity. I mean, this has been be a movement from a candidate to a movement and you need the party because the general election, organization. You need money. If you were in this room last night, you know we had the party. If you were in the room and you saw the electricity, you saw the electricity when i spoke, you saw the electricity when governor pence spoke. I mean, it was an incredible feeling. The room was going crazy. Delegates you should have them. The question is the larger republican party. The Trump Delegates are sitting on the floor obviously. Then another 15,000 people in the stand and everything. Its a special thing. And then you look at the whole structure and what we have done in washington. You look at the people who have come on board, meaning the big political names. Believe me, party unity is there. Its very much there. We keep hearing all the time that Donald Trumps three adult children, thats you, donald, and ivanka, are his closest advisers and biggest confidants. What is the biggest advice youve given him . I hate the word adviser . Do you . Are we advisers, no. We are his kids and love the man tremendously and he trust in us whether it be being coming business or whatever it is, he has a lot of trust in us and when we have something on our mind we say it to him. If he likes it, he accepts. We always have that heat at the table. That is the antithesis of family. Im not a politician and not what i do moo my everyday life but we spend live time with my father and can tell him things other people might not be able to tell him. We are going to hear from your father tonight. A big speech tonight. He has given an interview with the New York Times that has created some waves because he suggested we might withdrawal from the world and not defend our nato allies. Is that appropriate . No. Actually, i think a little bit different than that. I think its message is the fact that every country in this part of nato should have their own weight. Right now we subside the vast majority of nato. How is that fair . Countries in part of nato dont pay in anything and pay very little. A everybody should pay their own way and president obama has made that point. If you look at the amount that the u. S. Pays proportionately to nato 80 or some crazy number. If there was an attack on a country from russia or somewhere else, nato is pledged to defend them. Sure. And the United States is part of nato. Sure. If you dont live up your agreements, people will worry about whether you can be depended on. My father absolutely believes in nato and believes in living up to it but wants people to pay their own way. He is sick of seeing part of his narrative why are we ripped off around the world and taken advantage of and why do we have to be the worlds police force when no one else steps forward and youve seen this so long and so many years. His point with nato has always been people have to pay into the system and they have to pay their own way and not right for us to take a disproportionate verdict. He did not mean to say as president he would not support agreement . Nato is supported. He is the one who actually said you have to overhaul nato because nato never had anything to dealt with terrorism. Nato was always designed with dealing with large, large countries and large wars, you know, the ussr. So many other things. He said, listen, you need to transform nato to also deal with the threats of today. Isis and al qaeda and other groups like that. I think he has been 100 right and actually its interesting that nato just formed a group that is geared specifically to deal with terrorists. Eric, have you seen your dads speech tonight . I have. He has said that he has trouble talking about personal things. Will this be a personal speech . I think its going to be a deep speech and i think its going to be an important speech and i think he is going to talk about a lot of policy he has talked about the last 12 months and i think a policy quite frankly he has been right about the last 12 months p. You see what is happening in the world with all of these attacks this world right now is in a dark place but i think there is tremendous optimism. I think youll see both sides of that and i think youll hear probably the problems but i think its also going to be very optimistic speech in terms of how he as a commander in chief. Prompter or no prompter . There will be a prompter. Thank you for fulfilling your promise yesterday and coming over. We really appreciate it. Great to see you. Congratulations. Thank you. Many republicans are blasting ted cruz for last nights speech. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie called the texas senators words awful and selfish and Mike Huckabee said trump trusted ted and was rewarded with a betrayal. Democrat Hillary Clinton parodied ted cruz tweeting vote your conscience. John heilemann is joining us at the table. He is cohost and executive producer of the circus on showtime, a division of cbs. Good morning, john. Ted cruz ended up being booed off the stage. What does this mean . Unusual. Ive never seen that in many conventions ive covered. What does it mean . A huge political gamble by cruz. He is fundraising off of this morning which tells you he thinks it went well among his supporters. I think trump is going to lose and i stood up at the convention and said im the principal conservative who represents all of these people who werent for trump and when trump loses in the fall i will be there to be the true conservative inheritor of the conservative future. Mike pence gave a stem winder last night. Probably the best speech of the entire convention thus far. We are not talking about that. We are not talking about it, yes. We are not talking about the way he spoke highly of mr. Trump last night, his prescription for the future of the republican party. Indictment of Hillary Clinton. He was upstaged by a man that trump calls lyin ted. Its the Trump Campaign he is perfectly happy with the outcome. They got a certain benefit. The boos which rang out throughout this hall did, from the trump point of view, portray a unified Convention Hall in opposition to ted cruz. You saw Paul Manafort after it was all over and seemed perfectly happy with the outcome. He said we knew it was in the speech and all fine and some reporting they were whipping the booses. That doesnt help mike pence. You have to feel bad for mike pence because he was overshadowed. If they wanted to avoid this scene, put ted cruz not on in prime time and put him on earlier. Both sides got what they wanted what they got. The headlines today is unity in the party. Is the Party Unified . Its more unified than it was maybe but it Still Matters a lot. Donald trump, democrats have won five of the last six popular votes in america and democrats have a in the electoral college. You need more provides and you need republican unity. You got to get 95 of republicans so unity Still Matters. And structure matters too . Right. Thank you. And made it without either one. So far. But its a different world. We will bring you Donald Trumps acceptance speech tonight on cbs. We will be here with special live coverage beginning at 10 00 9 00 central. You can find nonstop coverage all day on cbsn. A new report finds 40 of food produced in america ends up in the trash. Ahead, we are in las vegas with the land of announcer this portion of cbs this morning sponsored by mercedesbenz.
