trump was steaming. his face was all locked in, he was not having a good time. >> all kidding aside, obviously, we all know about your credentials and breadth of experience. (laughter) for example... no, seriously, just recently, in an episode of celebrity apprentice, at the steakhouse, the men's cooking team did not impress the judges from omaha steaks. and there was a lot of blame to go around. but you, mr. trump, recognized that the real problem was a lack of leadership. and so, ultimately, you didn't blame lil' jon or meatloaf. you fired gary busey. and these are the kind of decisions that would keep me up at night. >> and he's being treated like a piñata by the president of the united states. and i think he felt humiliated. (applause) >> well handled, sir. well handled. >> but it just kept going and going, and he just kept hammering him. and i thought, "oh, barack obama is starting something that i don't know if he'll be able to finish." >> say what you will about mr. trump, he certainly would brin

trump responds, oh, really. could not do much worse. trump listed a few issues. look at syria and chemical weapons that crossed obama's red line. crimea and ukraine and build up of nukes. not good. was this the leaker of fake news? and the trump's belief that the intelligence community leaked the dossier to the media. >>> in an interview with washington post, the president-elect said the proposal for the obamacare replacement is just about ready for unveiling. he said quote, we will have insurance for everybody. even those who can't afford it. this is in contrast to republican leaders who are aiming for universal access. not coverage. trump promised the plan would be much less expensive and better. part of achieving that is targeting drug companies to negotiate lower prices. >>> mr. trump offered a pep talk sang the congress c saying the congress cannot get cold feet. that is the message carried by 40,000 people from maine to california on sunday. democratic candidate bernie sanders appeared at one of the rallies in michigan where he spoke to cnn. >> millions of

it was different, president trump, in one hour, will be president trump, not president—elect trump, he has been himself, he shoots from the hip, you can see that from his twitter feed and his own advisers don't know at times what he will say which is very different from the bush administration. what about what carlos was touching on? some of the things that donald trump said about women and allegations about breitbart news gritter muck that it was anti—semitic and wrote anti—semitic headlines at time? there were accusations of racism about breitbart there were accusations of racism about breitba rt news there were accusations of racism about breitbart news as well? what would george bush have made about that if it was in his white house? when he sits there in one hour's time and watches donald trump become president, as a former speech writer to his, what will be going through his mind? he is there to support the next president and the process, he was very supportive of barack obama and president obama has mentioned it several times, how he appreciated it. i know that one of presid

donald trump does not like. now, ironically, the alt-right spends much of its time deriding universities across the states as havens for week and mystical people who need safe spaces and sugar warnings. the president of the united states, meanwhile, cannot accept the cold hard facts of how many people were at his inauguration and sent his press secretary out to complain that the staff had been demoralized by the coverage, which was just based on those facts. could tookyou more about -- if you could talk more about steve bannon, the top aide to president trump, telling the media to shut up. breitbart news. talk about this institution. also, bringing in twowo more breitbart news reporters to the inner circle of the white h hou. suggests does take a look at breitbart news. i know a lot of people dodo not want to lolook at it. they consider it too be fake news, rightfully so, basically just propaganda. but looking at it and reading some of the coverage and reading the headlines will give someone a lot of insight int

but very big trump supporters. there are a lot of democrats in the states supporting trump and they had good seats at the inauguration. now they are at one of the balls, having a wonderful time, sending me little photos from the ball, so it is exciting day for them. if donald trump has managed to reach out to democrats like your mother and her husband, there does seem to be still this division in the country. you said donald trump reached out to people and this was a big part of his speech. we are still seeing a number of protests across the us and internationally. he has quite a job on his hands, doesn't he? he does, but he has a history of being a unifier. it has been difficult because of the fact it has been such a contentious campaign and there really has been the case of there really has been the case of the media in the united states trying to derail his campaign. everybody in this country knows that. that set a tone that was divisive and a lot of people got sucked into that point of view and they believed wh

you can bet although they are supposedly separating the trump is this empire and the trump presidency that the adult children and donald trump be front and center throughout this administration, both symbolically and behind the scene. john: in particular jared kushner and ivanka trump. some are reporting over the last that theysurprisingly will possibly be the most influential people in this entire administration. last night donald trump put an incredible weight on jared kushner's shoulder, saying he felt he was the best suited president trump could imagine to bring peace to the middle east. a rather extraordinary statement to make. whatever you think of it on merit, one that casts a young man in his 30's with or foreign-policy experience whatsoever in the extraordinary position of influence and responsibility that trump is already talking about. -- andhew -- andy two the two other boys. republicans and democrats suspect donald trump will be sued shortly after he takes the oath of office as having violated the clause of the united states constitution because those conflict are unresol

trump." hurt says several security guards escorted him off the property after he spoke directly to trump. now, it's legal for a private citizen to remove someone from private property. but it is not legal to eject someone from government frot for their views and it's not usually legal for government law enforcement to target or escort anyone based on their views. that is called view point discrimination and the supreme court has held the government may not pick and choose the speakers it likes so if donald trump took this same golf approach on government property or with his government security detail, it would be a real problem. and even if you view this incident as just some kind of petty sideshow from over the weekend, the fact is, in 17 days from now, if trump did this on government property or with government security it would be illegal the service's mission is to protect the president's safety, not patrol protesters or biographers or whatever. but keep this incident in mind as you look

trump. jim sciutto gives us the latest. >> john and christine, multiple u.s. officials with direct knowledge of this tell cnn that classified documents presented last week to president obama and president-elect trump included allegations that russian operatives claim to have compromising personal and financial information about mr. trump. the allegations were part of a two-page synopsis based on memos compiled by a former british intel against operative whose past work u.s. intelligence officials consider credible. the fbi is investigating the credibility and accuracy of the allegations which are based primarily on allegations from russian sources. but the fbi has not confirmed many essential details in the memos about mr. trump. the classified briefings last week were presented by four of the most senior intelligence chiefs director of national intelligence, james clamor. the fbi director james comey. cia director john brennan and nsa director admiral michael rogers. the two-page synopsis i

john lewis attacked donald trump. donald trump has a trite respond to that. howie: we can debate whether he responded to harshly. >> these reporters forget how these events started. it's john lewis who is questioning the legit math ma i or -- questioning the legitimacy of the election on november 8. howie: there has been a lot of sharp criticism. a lot of people want to come to these briefings, but the idea of moving the white house press corp out of that space would take them away from access to other press officials and the press would see that as a hostile move. >> the demand to cover donald trump and interest is off the charts. we saw that at the press conference at trump tower. right not you briefing room in the white house sits 60 people. let's say you can get 70 people in there. change is difficult. but sometimes changing be better. we are look at spaces in the white house that will allow more journalists to cover. i think sometimes change is scary. the white house is 18 acres. it's the house itself. but what's the down side? let's try it for the first

big players in the trump administration have an idea of how to get a lot of investment in, but trump will have to have democratic votes, because there are a lot of republicans who will not vote for this. whetherer question is chuck schumer is open to it or whether it collapses of its own republican weight? mark: this is where the democratic pressure to oppose anything will come headlong into union support and democratic support for big projects if it is framed and things that democrats think should be built. if trump can build a bipartisan coalition, he will work the bipartisan muscle in a way that could have implications for tax reform and anything else that comes later, assuming they frontload this, which i assume they will do. john: a lot of democrats will say these are not boondoggles. they will say this is all going to be about corporate corruption, payoffs, and a lot of those arguments will get made. if this is done in the right way and accomplished in a bipartisan way, it could be one of the biggest political wins in terms of expanding his support in the country. let's move on

trump's business conflicts. the bill would effectively force trump to fully divest from his business interests by subjecting him to conflict of interest laws that currently exempt the president. the legislation looks to require the president, the vice president, their spouses and minor or dependent children to divest all interests that create financial conflicts of interest, placing those assets in a true blind trust. according to senator elizabeth warren's office, one of the co-sponsors, that would be the case if it passes. joining me now are andrew rice, contributing editor to "new york" magazine who penned the cover story this week, and also david k. johnson, pulitzer writer who founded a nonprofit news organization that covers the trump administration and david corn, msnbc political analyst. thank you for being here. an drushgs you wrote this pretty extensive review of jared kushner's life and business career. what kinds of potential conflicts are out there based on the business that he does both in new york
