. >> thanks, ted. unfortunately, when we look at those dangerous conditions that affect the region and currently a live look outside philadelphia, center city, things look nice, but already feels very hot. let's do a little comparison. right now, the temperature in philadelphia, 83 degrees, winds, 12 miles per hour. like yesterday, we may see the wind picks up a bit in the afternoon with any storms that do develop in the area but it is really all about the temperatures. it already is all about them, almost a ten-degree difference in what we're sitting at and what we feel like in philadelphia. 92 degrees the feel-like currently. it feels very hot, very steamy out there. 93 in dover, it was 95 for the feel like. coatsville, that area looking better, we could see showers move through that did produce higher winds and lightning yesterday. atlantic city at 92 for the feel like temperature. on your radar and satellite, clouds, activity, mostly stayed well to the north and west. we're in the clear again. shou

last night at the convention, ted cruz refused to back trump. take a look. >> don't stay home in november. (applause) if you love our country and love your children as much as i know that you do, stand and speak and vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the constitution. (applause and boos) >> larry: okay, straight up. >> mmm... yeah... >> larry: did he perform a service for america? will we be thanking him later? if trump is not the president? >> first of all, i agree with what he said. i just don't think you will find those people in the republican party. (applause) it's difficult. i don't know. something sticks in my throat about saying thank you to ted cruz. >> larry: yeah, i know, very difficult. >> because, you know, he's a snake, too. >> larry: and the zodiac killer. >> and the zodiac killer. so you get two snakes, two apples. >> larry: i think temperature is a snake -- i don't think trump is a snake. i think he's a weasel. >> didn't the weasel kill the s

how does the rules of ted kennedy serve as a model? >> ted kennedy, as you said, chris, he was the greatest legislaor of his generation, probably of all time. he could be highly partisan, and reach across the aisle and be breathtakingly idealistic, but also very pragmatic. in the period he talked about in the book, it's very much like the current day. what kennedy was really two great accomplishments. he rallied the democrats who were very demoralized, very inclined to concede, to stand up against the newt gingrich, right-wing revolution. the second thing he did, when the congress was highly polarized, just as it is today, very highly partisan, he was able to pass really important progressive social legislation, an increase in minimum wage, the health reform bill and the bill covering eight million children. hillary clinton was a key part of that last achievement. but the things that he did are terribly relevant today, because we have republicans in congress, if you look at the ryan budget, it's exactly the same agenda what newt gingri

again, we see that as ted mentioned. you can't see it, but just beyond us a couple of barbecues going on and they're hopeful here for another quiet night. >> are people talking about donald trump at all, ted, around you? just to switch to politic force a second. because new poll numbers have donald trump slipping in wisconsin. but are people talking trump to you at all? >> well, they are talking somewhat. i spoke to several law enforcement officers who are somewhat disappointed that while sheriff clarke has done a tremendous job here in milwaukee, that he i-they felt that donald trump should have reached out to more members of the law enforcement community in light of the fact that state and local law enforcement were all involved in bringing this riot to a close here in milwaukee. >> griff, ted, thank you both. and just a note to viewers. sheriff clarke will be at the town hall tonight with donald trump that sean hannity is hosting in milwaukee. and in the great state of wisconsin, trump has been crisscrossing it. it's
