Were not coming closes to this time around. hillary clinton was hugely involved in her husbands first term administration doing health care. so i dont think its unusual for the first daughter take the to take on the role similar to that as a first lady, and alice roosevelt did it for teddy roosevelt, and when it comes to climate change and some of the other issues that we is seen her potentially try to tackle, it could run into an issue with her fathers policy proposals. i dont see him putting l...

Intelligence. that we dont appreciate. >> george? >> well, putin is having a very good december, because simultaneously he picked assad and syria and he won. his side has won and the war is over. and here at home, leave aside the question of what the intent of the russians was in getting into this and leave aside the question which is unanswerable, did it have an affect? it has had one affect that putin must be pleased about. that is it has americans at one anothers throat more than usual. by se...

Of time i dont think donald trump thought he would actually end up as president. im not sure you work all that out in advance. the answer to what monica is reporting there is, that means that donald trump will indeed profit from the trump organization throughout the course of his presidency where whatever profit is made will be there waiting for him at the end of his presidency. which means in every policy, the second question, the third question from that policy decision is going to be how does...

Russians will be on the move. russians continue these kind of tactics all over the world. some places well be able to effect and some places we arent. dont diminish the people who went out and voted made trump president. that is part of the strategy. jenna: john podesta, top aide to hillary clinton, he is in "the washington post" talking about what he thinks of fbi overly politicized and the like and taking on agencies. also taking on house republicans. viewers are seeing a little bit of the op-...

And finally tonight, we have a fun little history lesson. on what makes a mandate. at a heritage foundation event tuesday, vice president-elect mike pence said donald trump had a mandate, quote, this is an historic victory. we truly do believe our president-elect has secured a mandate for leadership. but as trump is measuring the drapes at the white house, hillary clinton does lead him by 2.8 million in the popular vote. and were seeing some pushback on the mandate talk, some calling trump a gli...

Donald trump president-elect has said that he doesnt really feel its necessary to have a daily briefing. now, thats before he is even president. thats even before he has had the daily briefing. thats before he knows what is in the daily briefing, which seems to me the height of either arrogance or a self-inflated ego here, because you have got to be president and at least have some experience as to how much and those briefings are -- how important they are, how much information is in them that y...

Been around or served four presidents, that those daily briefings are terribly important and that a president needs every bit of information a president can get. he is making decisions that are -- that affect millions, if not billions of people around the world. and you dont want to take any chances that you might miss something. you certainly dont want to pre-guess whether you need daily briefings before you even get to the white house. >> to the idea, though, that different presidents do it di...

Because i won. we know thats not true. we know clapper came out on october. -- october 7th. we know this is intel thats been out there for a long time. youre seeing it play out in realtime where by not getting the intelligence briefings are, maybe he creates an opportunity for himself to say something that doesnt square with what hes been told. >> look, i see this a couple ways. if you look at what happened during the election, what we term as fake news, the concern here looking at the statement...

Information once you get it? >> can i interject the process and what can happen, in order to hack into election systems in the state -- melissa: thats not what we are talking about, though, we are talking about the emails. >> the rush owns couldnt accomplish that without an army of people in the states. it didnt happen. release of the information in the emails could affect an election but how much of an affect has on the voter. again, we are back to argument that the fbi and the cia disagree. th...

Defeat. thats where our beef is. he respects the intelligence community. >> thats not exactly what donald trump said. he actually questioned juliette, the very assessment russia is behind the hacking. not just claims from the cia this could have had an affect or this was the motive, i guess, what they said, by russia. why does that distinction matter, that he is indeed questioning the findings of the intelligence community? >> well, its probably one of the most distressing aspects of a year that...
