>>> WELCOME BACK.
TONIGHT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE 
CLOSER LOOK AT SOME OF THE 
STATEMENTS DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN
MAKING.
PLENTY OF POLITICIANS TRY TO 
REWRITE THEIR OWN PERSONAL 
HISTORY OR STATEMENTS, BUT FEW 
POLITICIANS DO IT WITH SUCH 
BRAVADO AS DONALD TRUMP.
WHEN HE'S QUESTIONED ABOUT 
UNSUBSTANTIATED CLAIMS, HE 
USUALLY TRYING TO DODGE THE 
QUESTION, AND OF COURSE HE'LL 
ATTACK THE REPORTER OR TRY TO 
CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
JUST THIS MORNING WHEN TALKING 
ABOUT THE WARS AFTER 9/11, TRUMP
SAID IT WAS RIGHT FOR THE UNITED
STATES TO GO INTO AFGHANISTAN. 
>> WE WENT INTO IRAQ, WHICH WAS 
A DISASTER DECISION, JUST A 
SDAUS RUSS DECISION. 
>> >> NEW DAY'S ALLISON CAMEROTA
SAID GOING TO AFGHANISTAN WAS A 
MISTAKE.
TRUMP WASN'T HEARING IT. 
>> WE MADE A MISTAKE GOING INTO 
IRAQ. 
>> OUR QUESTION WAS ABOUT 
AFGHANISTAN. 
>> OKAY.
IT WOULDN'T MATTER.
I NEVER SAID IT. 
>> ALL RIGHT.
HE SAID HE NEVER SAID THAT, 
EXCEPT HE ABSOLUTELY DID SAY 
THAT, TWO WEEKS AGO.
>>> THIS ISN'T THE ONLY MESS 
HE'S REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE.
HERE'S WHAT HE SAID LAST NIGHT.
>> SO BIG SECOND AMENDMENT, 
WE'RE ALL BIG HEAVY ON THE 
SECOND AMENDMENT, YOU KNOW.
YOU KNOW, THE PRESIDENT'S 
THINKING ABOUT SIGNING AN 
EXECUTIVE ORDER WHERE HE WANTS 
TO TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY.
THIS IS THE NEW.
NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
THAT WON'T HAPPEN, BUT THAT'S A 
TOUGH ONE.
I THINK THAT'S TOUGH FOR HIM TO 
DO, WHEN YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THE 
SECOND AMENDMENT, THAT'S TOUGH. 
>> GEL ALLISON PRESSED HIM ON 
THIS ON "NEW DAY."
>> MR. TRUMP, THE PRESIDENT 
HASN'T SIGNED -- 
>> NO, I HEARD THAT HE WANTS TO,
AND I THINK ON YOUR NETWORK.
I DIDN'T SAY HE'S SIGNING IT, I 
THINK THAT WOULD BE A TOUGH ONE 
TO SIGN. 
>> YES, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO FACT.
>> I WOULD SAY IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, 
BUT NEVERTHELESS HE WAS THINKING
ABOUT IT, AND YOU'VE HEARD IT 
FROM NUMB LULLS NETWORKS AND 
READ IT IN THE PAPERS.
>> SO THE SOURCE ARE NUMEROUS.
THERE HAS BEEN SOMESH TO EXPAND 
BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR GUN 
BUYERS.
THAT'S A FAR CRY FROM THE 
PRESIDENT WANTS TO TAKE YOUR 
GUNS AWAY.
THIS IS ALL FINE IF YOU'RE 
TALKING TO YOUR FRIENDS IN A 
BAR, BUT IF YOU'RE THE LEADING 
CANDIDATE, YOU MAY THINK YOU 
WOULD NEED MORE EVIDENT.
WE'VE SEEN THIS BRUSH-OFF 
BEFORE.
WATCH WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I ASKED
HIM MYSELF FOR ANY PROOF OF 
ANOTHER BIG CLAIMS THAT THE 
MEXICAN GOVERNMENT IS SENDING 
RAPISTS OR CRIMINALS ACROSS THE 
BORDER, BY THE WAY IMMIGRATION 
OFFICIALS SAY THERE'S NO 
EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT. 
>> I THINK IT'S COMMON SENSE.
MEXICO DIDN'T WANT TO HOUSE 
SOMEBODY. 
>> BUT YOU KEEP SAYING EVERYBODY
KNOWS THIS IS THE CASE. 
>> I THINK THE SMART PEOPLE, THE
STREETWISE PEOPLE KNOW, AND I 
THINK BORDER GUARDS KNOW. 
>> BUT DO YOU HAVE EVIDENCE?
>> YOU'RE GOING TO FIND OUT WHAT
I HAVE. 
>> WE'RE STILL WAIT FOG THAT 
EVIDENCE. 
>> THE STRATEGY SEEMS TO MAKE 
THE WILD CLAIMS, OR JUST SAY YOU
HEARD ABOUT IT SOMEWHERE, OR 
THAT SMART PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT IT.
>> UNLIKE WITH OTHER 
POLITICIANS, HOWEVER, NONE OF 
THIS SEEMS TO BE HURTING 
DONALD TRUMP AT THE POLLS.
LOOK AT THE NEW CNN/ORCP POLL.
ONE THING MANY OF MR. TRUMP'S 
SUPPORTERS SAY THEY LIKE HIM, 
BECAUSE HE'S A
