Women that the president elect has assembled, hundreds and hundreds of interviews and conversations he himself has had should be deeply inspire to go millions of americans. they know when he raises his right hand on that inaugural platform this coming friday that hes going to be ready on day one to keep promises to the american people and turn this country around. chris: let me ask you about this. we have three minutes left and im going ask you three questions so lets get them in all in. obamaca...

Information had been floating around for months. i think for the president elect and i it was an act of irresponsibility by a handful of news organizations to actually traffic in and pay attention to these materials. again, i think the american people saw it for what it was and our focus is going forward. when you see the team that the president elect has assembled in the course of this transition particularly when it comes to national security in general mattis, senator dan coats and in mike po...

Elect, for his confidence and deep gratitude to the american people who have elected donald trump and -- and elected a man who i know is going to make america great again. chris: mr. vice president elect, thank you, thank you for joining us during this busy time and its always a pleasure to talk with you, sir. >> thanks, chris. chris: john brennon on russia rumors, mr. trumps relationship with the intel community and the hot spots he will face around the world.

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...

Communities were aware of it as well. chris: so is there such information? >> as i said, if we came into -- if we had that type of information we would share it with the fbi. chris: thats not a denial, sir? >> well, i wouldnt confirm or deny something like that on your program as much as i respect you, chris. chris: thank you, sir. lets talk about hot spots. mr. trump said in this weekend as we just talked about in the wall central jointer that he might lift sanctions on russia if they start hel...

Isis and other areas. i want to put up a quote from that interview. mr. trump said, if you get along and if russia is really helping us, why would anybody have sanctions if somebody is doing really great things. how quickly might he end sanctions on russia? >> i think the president elect has made it very clear that we have a terrible relationship with russia right now and thats not all our own doing but it really is a failure of american diplomacy in successive administrations and what the presi...

Trump will make the same mistake that president obama made which is to try to reset of relations with vladimir putin and doesnt fully understand that putin is an adversary and as cotton told me is not our friend. i think that it would serve trump better if instead of asking why we cant get along with russia he would ask why cant russia get along with us. getting along isnt the issue. getting along on our terms that serves the u.s. agenda around the world rather than moscows should be the preside...

Mr. trump. chris: its been verified by the national of intelligence thats hes been briefed the information. >> it was responsibility in the minds of the intelligence directors of the intelligence community to make sure that there was going to be no evaluation of it but making sure that the president elect was aware this was circulating. chris: couldnt you have done a bunch of better ways, for instance, staff level person give it to a staff level person rather than spy chiefs giving it to the pre...

The end of the day, i know that whether its our security at home or abroad, the president elect is going to put the safety and security of the american people first in every discussion. chris: youre not willing to give with confidence at this point? >> well, you would have to ask the president elect. i know theyve had conversations and that -- that will -- thatll be a good question for him after january 20th. chris: finally, minute left. central message. central theme that president trump wants ...
