You were a kid, thats what happened, i froze. then i sent out a tweet saying this is tough for all of us but he is president of the united states. lets give him a thut. we owe that to the office and you cant believe the vitriolic tweets i got back from people on the left calling me a communist, right-winger, fascist. that was painful. >> similar sentiment in the 10:00 show that whether you agree with him or not, he is the president elect of the united states and even the current president said t...

Josh holmes is with us as well, former chief of staff to mitch mcconnell, the senate majority leader. i understand after donald trump leaves the white house, hell head up to capitol hill. hell meet with the speak of the house, paul ryan. also meet with mitch mcconnell. relationship hasnt been that great with him either. set the scene for us, josh, how is that meeting going to unfold, because the president-elect, once hes president, hes going to rely on the republican leadership of the house and ...

Relationship would be an understatement. not only because donald trumps role in the birther movement but keep in mind president obama has been one of donald trumps chief critics over the last year, as well. this will be the first meeting the two will have. the last time they were in a room together was three years ago at the white house correspondents dinner. you will remember then, president obama took aim at donald trump from the podium in the brunt of a joke. that said, a white house official...

Everything he said hasnt been true, so hes not going to unite us, especially when so many people feel disenfranchised and this is one of protests across the city and many more planned and whats unfortunate is the police -- there was a man who was drunk and everyone there was begging him -- and pushing people he was a black man and we were begging him not to because we didnt want that to become the focus and we were scared if he got arrested something would happen to him. its so deep-rooted that ...

Confrontations and by the way, just the last couple moments were seen some more yellow signs that say wall street is the enemy, not muslims or immigrants. don, i cant hear you so well, so ill toss it back to you. >> all right, paul. i know its very loud. paul is in los angeles, oakland, california. protests growing all across the country, although the one in new york may be dissipating just a little bit. also, in chicago this evening, there is a protest, and there is a big one happening, the one...

They started reaching out further and within the hours since donald trump has been named president-elect im hearing that even since the publication of a story i wrote about this transition process, they are getting flooded with resumes but from a different group of people than are normally applying for these kind of jobs. a lot of people from the military contractor world, retired military types who have a top secret clearance and have been frustrated by what they perceive as the obama administr...

Oval office and we got to see the images of these two men sitting together for the first time. we had this covered from dc and beyond as the political universe is being turned upside downright now. halie jackson is in washington for us and katy tur and kristen welker in washington and robert costa is going to join us. halie, you have been watching this movement the last hour and it is been moving at lightning speed. president elect trump sitting alongside president obama, it is stunning. >> reme...

Voters turn out in places like ohio and michigan for him. then there are some areas, kate where he maybe able to find common grounds are democrats. infrastructure projects and pelosi spoke to reporters that shes willing to work with him and this is something they have been talking about for quite some time and think about the keystone pipeline and president elect trump says that he wants to move forward with that project. that was something blocked by this administration. those are some of the t...

Rights, i mean, you can just -- you can pick the struggle and go through the 60s, 70s, 80s. i remember when there were a million people in the streets of new york city protesting ronald reagan on nuclear weapons. and this was going on all over the world. in our recent time period we had occupy wall street. so its always the same sort of situation and i have to say to touch on hillary clinton, to acknowledge her roll in this, i marched a time or two when i was a college kid. so what im saying is ...

Ladies, "first woman, the grace and power of americas modern first ladies" is with us here. this is an historic moment. give us a little sense what is likely to happen when the incoming first lady is received by the first lady. >> well, like doug says, the animosity transfers over to the first ladies, too. the bush -- i mean the reagan/carter handover was difficult. they barely spoke to each other in the limo on the way to the swearing-in ceremony on capitol hill. i suspect mrs. obama will take ...
