Of the press corps. as it is so self-evident and i suspect eli and kelly would agree that the battle plan is a make those folks in that room, including kelly, including eli sort of an opposition party. and to exploit the fact that our collective approval rating, our own collective approval ratings are very low as we know. so they are going to try to hammer away at every single mistake. but this obsessiveness that weve seen again during the campaign and of late, be it attacking arnold schwarzeneg...

Among the american public, are very low as we know. theyre going to try to hammer away at every single mistake. but this obsessiveness that weve seen again during the campaign, of late, be it attacking arnold schwarzenegger, attacking the media with ratings, with pollings. and now with the demonstrably false, as eli suggested, assertions about the the crowd size yesterday, is quite remarkable. im sure certainly kelly, whos got as much experience, and you, cannot vaguely remember a setting like t...

Attacking arnold schwarzenegger, attacking the media with ratings, with pollings. and now with the demonstrably false, as eli suggested, assertions about the the crowd size yesterday, is quite remarkable. im sure certainly kelly, whos got as much experience, and you, cannot vaguely remember a setting like that in the press room today where somebody came out in such an arguably sort of tacky, whiny, combative fashion, and didnt even have the spine to take a single question after doing a 180 after...

The base of trump tower, not allowed to protest around trump tower because it is the presidents home and its a highly secured site now in midtown manhattan. weve been showing you crowds, and weve been accurate about the crowd sizes weve been depicting today, accurate about pointing out that its earlier today these pictures were from earlier this afternoon. but that is along the mall in washington, d.c. weve just seen this extraordinary statement by sean spicer from the podium in the white house ...

And for someone of john lewiss stature to lend credibility to the baseless assertions of those who question the legitimacy of this election is deeply disappointing. i hope he reconsiders it. >> with we now, marc morial, the president and ceo of the national urban league. nice to always have you on. thanks for swinging by. >> happy martin luther king day. >> thank you. same to you. >> uh-huh. >> first beginning with congressman lewis. yes, he is this civil rights icon, but he is also a democratic...

Delaware. senator, thanks very much for joining us. >> thank you, wolf. its been a very busy weekend. >> it certainly has. do you agree with the outgoing cia directors assessment that donald trump doesnt understand russia? >> im gravely concerned that donald trump not only doesnt understand russia and vladimir putin, but doesnt understand how to conduct himself in a balanced and thoughtful way. over this weekend, donald trump has been very busy picking fights with nato, with chancellor merkel of...

This debate playing out within the democratic party will see which wing wins the liberals or the moderates when they start the debate policy. >> we mentioned the tone you could possibly take. listen to vice president elect who made a stop at the martin luther king memorial. he was asked on fox news this morning what he thinks of congressman lewis calling president-elect trump illegitimate. >> youll see president-elect trump take the oath of office, speak to the nation in his inaugural address su...

Baseless assertions of those who question the legitimacy of this election is deeply disappointing. i hope he reconsiders it. >> reporter: chris, of course this comes against the backdrop of the martin luther king jr. holiday and underscores some of t the challenges president-elect trump has had in reaching out to the african-american community. he talked about the need to unify the country, so how will he really begin to do that in earnest? that question remains unanswered. we know he will be me...

Michelle obama is shes a very interesting figure, she has very original thoughts, she likes defying what other people think she should say, as a brack woman. in 2007, 2008, her statements are so rich and original and funny and interesting and she was willing to make assertions that people would sometimes disagree with. so my question is will we see a little bit more of that michelle obama, not really a different michelle obama, just a different side of her after she leaves the white house. >> sh...
