Sessions is a leading contend are fr for attorney general. Back in the 80s, sessions was accused of making racially tinged remarks. Sources familiar with the process say former Texas Governor rick perry has been in touch with the Transition Team about the role of energy secretary. The department perry could not remember during the 2011 Republican Debate when listing the three departments he would eliminate as president. Like many others, sources say perry is under consideration for multiple positions. And newt gingrich. We have seen him on the campaign trail. He will not hold a cabinet post in the trump administration. The former House Speaker says that it is not physically doable. He plans to focus on Strategic Planning for donald trump without holding an official role. He had been mentioned for health and human secretary. And new details about the demotion for Chris Christie. A trump advisor says the new jersey governor met with the staff last thursday to review the transition memo. For the first time. Because christies plan involved hiring lobbyists and washington insiders, his plan was rejected and he was replaced by mike pence. Here is christie discussing his future yesterday in Atlantic City. I have no reason to believe as we stand here today that i will do anything other than serve out my full term as governor and turn the keys of the office over to whoever you select in november of 2017 to replace me. Christie says after his term as governor, he is not sure if he will pursue Public Service or enter the private secretatosect. Donald trumps staff starting out calling it a victory tour, but switching the name to the thank america tour. Rallies are planned around the country right now. It is a multicity event that will begin in the next couple weeks. It will focus on several of the battleground states that donald trump turned from blue to red. The question, christine, with all of the protests we have seen in so many cities, how will the thank america tour play out with people in the divided country . Lets bring in our own tal kopan to talk more about the situation with Donald Trumps transition. Tal, good morning. Good morning. I want to start by talking about mitt romneys meeting with donald trump. It is supposed to happen this weekend. When you look back at the primaries, this was a bitter relationship. Now the two are planning to talk. Lets look at the words that they had for each other back on the campaign trail. Question talk about we can talk about it here on the other side. Donald trump is a phony. A fraud. He was a disaster. He is playing the public for suckers. Romney let us down. He gets a free ride to the house and all we get is a hat. Romney choked like a dog. He choked. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University. I have a lot of friends. I have a lot of friends. By the way, minimtt romney is n one of them. The two will be meeting. Trump and romney in a room. Could you imagine being a fly on the wall when that happens . Right. Is this about healing wounds or considering mitt romney for a role . Our reporting shows it is both. Your story yesterday about the changes that happened on the transition. Our reporting shows that there is the intent to send the message that the party can be united and donald trump is willing to meet with people that spoke out very forcefully against him. Some send a message all is calm and the Republican Party will come together and move forward. Keep in mind, there is a little bit of this. Hillary clinton and president obama ran against each other. For trump, that process is a little bit delayed. A lot of these people spoke out against him up until election day. He has shown an unwillingness to let go of a grudge in the past. We will have to watch if this is genuine. The message they are trying to send is former rivals are welcome to talk to him about a position in his administration. Lets be honest. They need adults. They need people who have a red seriously. A ready made network of people to stand up a department and run it and be able to get stuff done. This is a president who said he will be a dealmaker. On the other side for people who are critical of donald trump, this is a moment where a potential unity of the Republican Party we have not seen in some time. For somebody like mitt romney who is a patriot, you wonder if he is thinking america is bigger than donald trump. The presidency and the country are more important than all of the mud slinging on the campaign trail. Absolutely. You know, i have been covering Donald Trumps transition since before the election. When it was run by Chris Christie and assembled. There were a lot of people on the transition would would not have campaigned for trump, necessarily, but believed in the calling of building an administration. I talked to folks around town who would not supported him necessarily or may not have voted for him. If a call to serve came in to them, they would serve. Theres a belief that serving the country is more important than petty politics. So there is an element of that. Our reporting shows that mitt romney believe it is is his duty to serve his country. One position he is rumored to be in the running for is secretary of state. A diplomatic position where you want someone with an even kiel. They need adults in the room. You look at the list of people they were considering. It was a whos who of who has been defending donald trump. There were a lot of positions that had the same names over and over. They have to broaden the search f if they are staffing the whole administration. The talk about the messy transition. Tal, i looked back at the stories i wrote last time around. That was in the middle of the financial crisis. Transitions every eight years or four years, the transition is messy. It is behind. That is by nature what the transition is. Tal, well talk to you in a few minutes. Thank you. President elect trump taking credit on twitter for stopping ford from moving a plant from kentucky to mexico. But ford was never planning to move that plant. This is what donald trump tweeted. Just got a call from my friend bill ford who advised me he will keep the lincoln plant in kentucky, not mexico. I worked hard with bill ford to keep the lincoln plant in kentucky. I owed it to the great state of kentucky. Last year, ford signed a contract with the uaw. It includes 700 million of incein investments at the plant. They are legally obligated to keep the plant there. Legally obligated to keep the employment near 4,700. Ford was going to move the production from kentucky to somewhere else as production of the escape increased. The escape, a bigger and higher margin vehicle growing quickly. That will stay there. They would move the mkc. Mexico was a possible location. The move would not cut jobs. Now ford says that model will stay in the kentucky plant. My romans numeral today. 28,000. Up 50 from the depths of the recession. Of course, you expect campaigns to spin. When does spin become nontruth . Ford said they would move small car production to mexico. Ford said those are small low margin products because we have bigger things we are building here. We are continuing to add jobs in the u. S. This is a global company. Donald trump has been at odds with ford. The current president , president obama, is meeting with leaders in berlin this morning to tighten alliances and calm fears. That story as early start continues. Hey, jesse. Who are you . Im vern, the orange money retirement rabbit from voya. Orange money represents the money you put away for retirement.

Welcome back to early start. Im george howell. President obama is trying to tighten european alliances as he is overseas. The president is warning his closest allies about a shift in the global order which could lead to a meaner, harsher and more troubled world. Cnns Michelle Kosinski is live in berlin at this hour. Michelle, the not so rosy outlook from president obama. Reporter not really. He doesnt have a lot of reassurance or clarity to adhere in europe where there is a great deal of apprehension and plenty of questions about the new administration will mean for things like trade deals and Iran Nuclear Deal and fight against isis and the paris climate agreement and on and on. What president obama can do is emphasize the strength of the relationships and that he will help to ensure a smooth transition. For the most part, what we have been hearing from him and this is based on the questions he has been asked by the press is what sounds like warnings. He warned donald trump that what works during a campaign doesnt necessarily work in leading the country. He warned against Simplicity Solutions and attacks. He seemed to be warning voters they need to be informed and focused on facts. Vote and not take democracy for granted. He also warned the world against the wave of what he called crude nationalism. Listen. The voice that helps to steer the world away from war wherever possible, thats our voice. More often than not. And were not always successful. If that voice is absent or if that voice is divided, we will be living in a meaner, harsher and more troubled world. Reporter in terms of optimism, the most that chancellor merkel could offer is she is keeping an open mind. He did not base his statements on Donald Trumps qualities, but on the job. He said being president forces you to focus and be serious. George. Michelle, many of the World Leaders are unsure of Donald Trumps positions when he takes the oath of office. Michelle kosinski traveling with the president live in berlin. Donald Trump Holding his first facetoface meeting with the world leader. Japanese Prime Minister shinzo abe sat down with donald trump at trump tower thursday. They were said to have a candid discussion. Abe says he believes the u. S. And japan can form a level of trust with their relationship. We have Andrew Stevens in hong kong with more. The meeting with the incoming president with shinzo abe. During the campaign trail, there were concerns in japan about the statements from donald trump. Reporter good morning, christine. Real concerns. Hardly surprising given what donald trump had been saying on the campaign trail. Talking about withdrawing u. S. Troops if japan did not pay more for upkeep. There are 50,000 troop there s. Donald trump saying that maybe japan and south korea should develop their own Nuclear Weapons program as a deterrent against north korea. Donald trump walked those comments back. He is strong on ripping up International Trade deals in japan which is pushing hard for the transpacific partnership. Real concerns in japan and tokyo about the incoming administration. You mentioned the word trust. That is a word used a lot by the japanese leader. He said to make sure the alliance with the u. S. And japan is working properly, there needs to be trust. This is what he had to say after the meeting with donald trump. Translator without confidence between the two nations, alliance will never function in the future. And as an outcome of todays discussion, im convinced that mr. Trump is a leader with whom i can have great confidence in. Reporter great confidence and trust. Reports this morning in tokyo that there were sighs of relief that the meeting went well. The optics looked good. Thank you, andrew. Really interesting article on cnn money. China ready to bounce.

This man, the former president ial candidate mitt romney. And president elect plans to hit the road again. Get ready for the thank america tour. Welcome back to early start. Im christine romans. Im george howell. New this morning, president elect trump picked general Michael Flynn for the job of National Security advisor. This according to a trump transition official. Flynn was a fierce supporter during the campaign. He would come to the white house with baggage. Among other things, he was fired as director of Defense Intelligence agency. Officials say because of his combative management style. As for the transition activity, it is moving forward at trump tower. The president elect has a twohour meeting to review top choices for Key Administration jobs and after that, trump will spend the weekend at trump golf course in new jersey. He is set to sit down with 2012 republican nominee mitt romney to talk about a role for him. Can you imagine being a fly on the wall . Lets bring in sara murray. Reporter good morning, george and christine. Donald trump offering a role to Michael Flynn. Our sources have not said if flynn accepted that position. Flynn has been at Donald Trumps side throughout the campaign and throughout the transition process as trump works to build a government. Flynn may seem like a logical pick. Donald trump is having meetings raising eyebrows. He spent thursday meeting with South Carolina governor nikki haley. Some sources say he is considering for secretary of state. As for this weekend, he will meet with mitt romney. Mitt romney was the earliest and fiercest critics of donald trump. Sources say they are expected also to discuss the secretary of state job. Whether trump will go with one of these past rivals and name them to a cabinet position is still to be seen. He may just stick with safe picks like flynn. Back to you. Thank you, Sara Murray Jeff sessi. Jeff sessions is a name discussed for the attorney general. The former Alabama Attorney general was the first to endorse trump. He was nominated for a federal judge in the 1980s. That was scuttled when sessions made racially continuitinged re sources familiar with the process say former Texas Governor rick perry has been in touch with the trump Transition Team about a role for the energy secretary. As you will remember, thats the department that perry could not remember in the 2011 Republican Debate when listing the three agencies he would eliminate as president. Like many other cabinet contenders, sources say perry is under consideration for multiple positions. Newt gingrich is not holding a position in the trump stati administration. He says it is not physically doable. He will focus on Strategic Planning for trump without holding an official role. Gingrichs name was mentioned for health and Human Services secretary and secretary of state. We have new details about the trump teams demotion of christie. A trump advisor telling cnn the new jersey governor met with the staff last thursday to review his memo for the first time. Because christies plan involved hiring lobbyists and washington insiders it was rejected and christie was replaced with mike pence. Heres christie discussing his future during a speech in Atlantic City on thursday. Listen. I have no reason to believe as we stand here today that i will do anything other than serve out my full term as governor and turn the keys of the office over to whoever you select in november of 2017 to replace me. Christie saying after his term as governor, he is not sure if he will pursue Public Service or whether he will enter the private sector. President elect trump is planning to visit the swing states that put him over the top. Trump staff started calling this a victory tour, but switched that name to the thank america tour. Rallies are planned around the country right now. It is a multicity event which will start in the next couple weeks and focus on the battleground states that trump turned from blue to red. Donald trump taking credit on twitter last night for stopping ford from moving a plant from kentucky to mexico. But ford was never planning to move that plant. He tweeted this, just got a call from bill ford who advised me who will keep the lincoln plant in kentucky. I worked hard with bill ford to keep the plant in kentucky. I owe it to the great state of kentucky. Here are the facts. Ford signed a contract with the uaw. It includes 700 million of investments in the kentucky plant. It would build new escape models there and keep the Employment Level the same. What trump may be referring to is ford shifting production of the lincoln mkc model from kentucky to another factory as production of the popular escape increased. Mexico was one possible location. The move would not have cut any jobs. No jobs transferred. Now ford says that model will stay at the kentucky plant. This is the second time trump has taken credit for getting ford to change his mind. He did it last year when the f150 truck in ohio. Claiming his speeches swayed the decision. With more trump transitions taking shape, lets bring in tal kopan. Ford said it would move the small car production to mexico. That fired up donald trump. Then ford had interviews and press releases and calls with reporters explaining we have a Global Production model that is good for america. Good for american workers. Were adding american jobs. Listen to mark fields. Fords executive in september. Its really unfortunate when politics get in way of the facts. The facts are fords investment in the u. S. And commitment to american jobs has never been stronger. Not one job will be lost. Most of our investment is here in the u. S. And thats the way it will continue to be. Trump continues to try to paint, tal, the simple iteterms what is not a simple business model, but resonates with the people that got him in the white house. Throughout the campaign, we have seen that donald trump is not concerned about letting facts get in his way. He said patently untrue things multiple of times on a variety of top particular ics on the ca. Voters are not as concerned about whether everything he says is true. They are more concerned with the spirit of what he says. Especially when you look at the demographics and states that he flipped. It is very clear that theres a section of the country that has been reliant on manufacturing and production jobs related to steel, coal, auto workers. That type of thing. They have seen their jobs go away. Experts say largely because of technolo technology. They are concerned. They want to rebuild the communities. Donald trump spoke directly to them. The messages while you and i may know they are not entirely true, voters are responding to the fact that he cares about that message. Thats what they are responding to. The oxford dictionary word of the year is post truth. So interesting. You know, i want to talk about two stories we covered today that seem in contrast. We heard that donald trump is pushing to delay the Trump University lawsuit saying the transition to become president of the United States is all consuming. One would imagine that is the case, but at the same time, planning the thank america tour. Planning to go to the states to hold big rallies seems in contrast, tal. Yeah. I think you could make that argument. You could also make the counter argument that a trial is more time consuming than popping on your jet to a Location Holding a rally and going home on t. On the campaign trail, we saw him cram four or five rallies in a day. If he wants to do one in a day, he could probably argue he could work on the way there and back. A trial would take up more time. Absolutely, it looks like there is one of the things he would like to do and one he would not like to do. Im sure you can understand it. By all accounts, the best he felt in the campaign was in front of a cheering crowd. He wants that again. Lets talk about the weekend. He will go to one of his golf clubs in new jersey and meet with mitt romney. The guy who held the nomination in 2012 and was not president. Last night, Kellyanne Conway talked about the Transition Team in terms of reaching out to people. Listen. I think what happens with consensus builders and good negotiators and successful business men who know you have to take the counsel from many people, rivals and allies and they find a way to Work Together if it is appropriate. In politics, people look through blue and red lens, but business men like romney and trump shed the lens and try to solve problems and come together. He was called a con man, a phony and fraud by mitt romney. Romney said this would be trickle down racism. Can they put that behind them . I guess we will find out. In some respects, this is the game of politics. People sort of speak in the way that is screis convenient at th. If they are running against each other, it is rankerous. You know, some of this criticism of donald trump reached a pitch we dont often see. Language that was inflammatory. Oddly for most president ial candidates, it continued even after he was the Party Nominee from some in his own party through the election. Thats why this is a little bit surprising. Also because trump has a reputation for not letting go of a slight and rewarding loyalty above all else. Clearly, the message is they want to come together and project they are considering people who were once against them and moving on. We will see what the outcome of the weekend meeting is closely. It will be an interesting meeting. Donald trump said enough terrible things about romney. Maybe they cancel each other out and move forward. Talv tal, have a great weekend. Thank you. And president Obama Meeting with european leaders this morning and he is also warning about a dangerous global shift. Cnn is live in berlin next. Welcome back. This morning, president obama is making one final attempt to tighten trans atlantic alianceses before he leaves office. He is meeting with the leaders of germany and france and spain and the uk. He is warning about a shift in the global order to lead to a meaner and harsher world. We have cnns Michelle Kosinski traveling with the president. Talking about a crude nationalism spreading throughout the world. Reporter this is supposed to be the president s we made it through the election. Well all be fine. It has turned into something else. The outcome was so much different than he expected and now there is uncertainty among european leaders. You can imagine what the conversations are oneonone. Today in the group of five, what they are asking the president about. There is a resignation and what they can do is work with the new administration. On the surface, everybody is diplomatic. We know behind the scenes, there is anxiety there. They dont know how the key initiatives will change or turn out. When you look at what the countries are working on. The Iran Nuclear Deal and the paris climate agreement and the fight against isis and on and on and on. They are not really sure how the u. S. Will play into that. Including things like the u. S. Relationship with russia. And how that will change things. What the president has been saying is sounding more like warnings and cautions than it is optimism. Some of that is based on the questions he has been asked, but he warned donald trump that what works during campaigns doesnt necessarily work in leading the country. He warned against simplistic attacks and simplistic solutions. He warned about the wave of what he called a crude nationalism and populism. Saying if yyou let that kind of sentiment divide your nation, its dangerous. Christine and george. Michelle kosinski in berlin. Thank you. Hillary clintons vp pick tim kaine said he will not run for president or Vice President in 2020. He will run for reelection in 2018. Calling the work in congress the highest and best use.

Donald trump is holding a facetoface meeting with japanese Prime Minister shinzo abe. The two were said to have a very candid discussion. Abe said he feels they can maintain a level of trust. We have cnns Andrew Stevens following the story from hong kong this morning. Andrew, the Transition Team told them not to take his words literal from the campaign trail. Reporter that is key. Some of the more explosive comments on the campaign trail could be dismissed. That would be music to japans ears. He threatened to withdraw the troops from japan unless japan paid more to look after them. He talked about south korea and japan developing their own Nuclear Weapons as a deterrent for north korea. He did walk that back. There were fears over what he was thinking and a lot of rhetoric on trade. Donald trump has been antibig global trade deals. That is part of his dna. Whether that will be walked back remains to be seen, george. Certainly, there was hope in the japanese camp. A sigh of relief reported in tokyo today because mr. Abe was talking about the fact that his relationship with donald trump was one which could be built on trust. That trust was essential to keeping the alliance. An Important Alliance with japan and the u. S. That is the key for japan. Making sure the u. S. Remains its key ally. And hopefully according to japan, george, this is the first step in the process.

If you are the best person for that job, then he wants you as part of the team. This is new day with chris cuomo and alisyn some of flynns previous comments are scrutinized.

President elect donald trump calling for a two hour meeting today here with his entire Transition Team here at trump tower where hell likely be reviewing some of his top choices, john, for some of these key cabinet posts.

We cannot win this war unless were free to call our enemies by name. Radical islamists and failed tyrants. Reporter he was fired in 2014 by the white house. Flynn said it was payback for criticizing the administration. U. S. Officials say it was his
