He called into morning shows on ABC, MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News on Tuesday to defend his plan, and hosted a rally Monday night hours after his campaign sent out its statement.
Walters is an accomplished television journalist who has appeared on shows including NBC’s “The Today Show,” the ABC evening news, and ABC’s news magazine “20/20.” She also created the popular ABC News morning show “The View,” which she hosted for more than a decade.
