Chief strategist and senior counselor. Rivalry between his two top aides. Priebus the intumlt washingttim washington insider. And bannon a man who operated on the executive fringe on brei breitbart. Com and containing close ties for the movement. Bannons appointment drawing sharp condemination. Saying in a statement, it is easy to see why the kkk views trump as their champion when trump appoints one of the foremost peddlers. The executive director on the counsel of islamic relations says the appointment of bannon sends the disturbing message that the antimuslim conspiracy theories and white nationalest ideology will be welcome in the white house. As thousand s across the countr protest against trump for the fifth straight day, trump addressing his supporters who have harassed minorities in his first tv interview. I will say it right to the cameras. Stop it. Reporter trump also appearing to theyre talk about a fence in the republican congress. Would you accept a fence . Certain areas of the wall is more appropriate. Im very good at this. Called construction. Reporter addressing his Supreme Court appointees. Calling samesex marriage a settled issue taking a hard stance against National Abortion rights. Having to do with abortion if it ever were overturned, it would go back to the states. So, it would go back to the states. Reporter some women wont be able to get an abortion. It will go back perhaps have to go to another state. And, chris, as we kind of watched donald trump in the wake of that election victory, we started to see some shifts in his proposal. Some of his key proposals from the campaign trail. One of those, will he appoint or at least ask to appoint a special prosecutor to look into Hillary Clinton . He was asked about that last night and he said, i dont know yet. He doesnt want to hurt the clintons. I can tell you inside the campaign and transition apparatus, a lot of talk right now that this simply would not be a good idea. Donald trump himself saying over and over again, he wants to bring the xunt together. This would have the exact opposite effect. Still, at least at this point, chris, donald trump not willing to do away with that campaign fledge. Lets bring in our cnn Political Correspondent dana bash and political anchor for time warner news errol louis and New York Times National Political reporter alex burns. Errol, Reince Priebus is the easy part of the story. Rnc chair and they were sideways during the primaries and he came over and started helping trump and he gets his position. Thats fine. The story is bannon. Bannon is not a journalist. Hes not a political operative. He is not conventional in any way. He runs an attack site for the alt right. Its not about steve bannon himself, although that is somebody who will get more press attention. I dont know if it will be favorable to him but what breitbart has represented. Describing his own organization. Those are his words. Not people putting something on him. What is the alt right . You start to look at it and you start to look at what it has meant and where it is going and what the people themselves say. The members of the alt right or the activists in the alt right. What they, themselves, say they are doing. It is very disturbing. For the Southern Poverty Law Center and for others to say this is unacceptable, nobody voted for this. This is not about trade policy and getting more jobs in the industrial midwest. This is about something entirely different. And, you know, look, we see the attacks, the swastikas or the alleged attacks and some of those will turn out to be hoaxes. This is a movement that has already surprised a lot of people. It bears keeping a very, very close eye on it, not just by the press, but by everybody. Not the law center and the Antidefamation League but also a number of conservatives. Ana navarro tweeting and john weaver coming out and condemning this. Dana, i just wonder what you think it does within the party. You said to me last night on the show that priebus and bannon get along. In 2010 he also in a leaked email not long ago said i want paul ryan out by the spring. Thats right. Now he has to work with him. No question. I think that people who didnt realize that steve bannon was going to be an enteintegral par the white house werent paying attention to the campaign in the last three months. He was by Donald Trumps side. Not just as ceo but traveling with him, particularly in the last month or so. He was as Kellyanne Conway called him, their general. He was working very closely with Reince Priebus the rnc chair during the campaign. And my understanding is that donald trump wanted to recreate that and take that team to the white house because it worked well for him. He won the presidency. But the fact that bannon is there, baggage and all should not be a surprise. This isnt baggage. I have baggage, you have baggage. Speak for yourself, chris. Thats true. You are actually pretty clean. This is baggage, though. This guy is what he is. The headlines put them up. The headlines from talking about bill kristol and also talking about Birth Control makes women unattractive and crazy. Also Political Correctness protects muslim rape culture. Those are just some of them. Now, the question becomes this. He is what he is. Lets see, bannon wants to lie about what he is. Thats his choice. Well see how he presents himself. Donald trump deserves a chance as president of the united states. Why . Because he won. But that chance is conditional. Its conditional on him assua assuaging the fears of people who feel like theyre going to be marginalized or targeted. Convince somebody who is concerned as a gay american or an africanamerican that it will be okay or jewish american. I think its tough to do, chris. I think that one of the important dynamices to watch just viewing how the country responds. I spoke to i dont know how many voters during the campaign who said they like trump. They wish he would tone it down a little bit. But they didnt believe that he really meant a lot of the stuff that he was saying and some of the attacks that Hillary Clinton was making tying trump to the alt right movement and tying him to some of the extreme racial views of folks associated with breitbart. This is a very direct link and it is tough for trump to move on the way he did during the campaign because no other candidate for him to redirect attention to. Dana, if it is donald trump in the oval office and Reince Priebus and steve bannon, who does he trust more . Thats the trouble with this power struggle. The two of them, Reince Priebus and steve bannon, for the most part, kind of come together on big issues and surprisingly, i was told, that despite the fact that steve bannon had a mission to take down the House Speaker who happens to be one of Reince Priebus best friends during the campaign, he saw that he had his eye on the big prize, which is the presidency. He didnt go after paul ryan. And steve bannon would say to donald trump, tone it down. I know youre mad at these republicans criticizing you. However, as you said so well, alex. That was them capain, this is governing. So, not a clear answer to your question, poppy. Who will have the final answer . Or, frankly, if it will just be the last person in the room with the president. All right, guys, stay with us. Because were going to talk about those positions, as chris was saying. We heard one thing on the campaign trail. We heard a lot different, frankly, in this interview with 60 minutes. Repeal and replace obama care. Those were his rallying cries on the trail.

He did soften on his stance and key Campaign Promises like immigration, build a wall and lets discuss with our panel dana bash, errol louis. So many times he said Deportation Force, Deportation Force. Lets take a listen. On day one, im going to begin swiftly removing criminal, Illegal Immigrants from this country. What we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have crimnfl records, gang members, drug dealers, were going to have a lot of these people, probably 2 million, could be 3 million and were getting them out of our country or were going to incarcerate. After the border is secured and after everything gets normalized, well make a determination on the people that youre talking about. Who are terrific people. Theyre terrific people. But were going to make a determination. But before we make that determination, leslie, its very important that we want to secure our border. Dana, he also said paul ryan also said when pressed by jake tapper yesterday morning, Deportation Force is not what were talking about right now. To be fair as Kellyanne Conway and the Third Campaign team came on towards the end of the campaign, they tried to soften that language and even policy. But, the reality is that the people in this country who do have fear, some of them who are marching in the streets, they didnt hear that. They are still worried that their friends, their neighbors and their family members if they are here illegally and not criminals are going to be kicked out of the country. To hear president elect trump say that is important. The fact that he is still saying that criminals should be kicked out and so forth, that is what republicans and, frankly, democrats at some point have been saying for some time. The question is, how do you do it . We still dont know the answer. Look, donald trump said to me, were going to get a force and put them together and go out and do it and then they backed off. But this is politics, errol. This is what you do. You get one group of people who want one thing and figure out a way to move off it to get something else. Were headed away from the politics of a campaign and the politics of governing is quite different. So, even, lets be clear, even this slim down version of only 2 Million People or 3 million, according to what he says, the estimated cost to remove somebody, Something Like 10,000 per person. Were talking about 20 billion or 30 billion. This is not something he will do on his own. If you talk to democrats about this. Hillary clinton or any of the main party people or elected. If youre here illegally, the law says you have to go. Only one slice even of the left that says, i dont care if youre here illegally, you should stay anyway. This is not controversial. Nobody wanted the current situation. And he has campaigned as if democrats somehow wanted this to happen. The reality is even under almost any scenario, you have a bear minimum of a half Million People who are supposed to be slated for removal and who just kind of vanish into the country. How you find them short of Deportation Force of some kind. Its not a small task and not a cheap task and not going to be quick and not going to be easy. They can call it whatever they want. The reality is if youre talking about a change in policy, some version of that promise. Donald trump also ran on saying he knows more about defeating isis than the generals. He said that more than once. He was asked about it in the 60 minutes interview last night because as commander in chief, this is on him now. Lets listen. You have said that youre going to destroy isis. Now, how are you going to destroy isis . I dont tell you that. I dont tell you that. I dont want to tell them anything. I dont want to tell anybody anything. Theyre great generals, we have great generals. You said you knew more than the generals about isis. Well, ill be honest with you, i probably do. Look at the job theyve done. He need the generals in his corner. So, he says in one breath, we have great generals but i still know more than them when it comes to defeating isis. One more way, poppy, that trump has hemmed in to implement policy. If you talk to anyone from the Obama Administration and Bush Administration and go back to any administration you want one of the Biggest Challenges any president has is taking the federal bureaucracy the Civil Service on one hand and the uniforms and ornianting them towards the policy you want to implement. Trump gets to campaign and sign a document and suddenly the federal government turns over. Not the way it works. When youre out there openly antagonizing the people who would be implementing your policies, it doesnt make it easier to bring about the top to bottom change that trump has promised. What happened here . Was this a mental hiccup . You know, you scared one group of people, but that was okay because you got these people who are angry about immigration on your side. Theyre not going to leave you. Nothing close to you that that base can find. Theyll be okay even if you soften. Going after Hillary Clinton, you know, you softened on that. Why . Same exact reason. But on this youre disrespecting the group that everybody respects. And, youre materially wrong about the situation going on in the war. Mosul is not a disaster by anyones estimate. Why . Why doesnt he do on what he did on the other issues here . Why double down . I wish i could answer the question. I dont know except for the fact that on the military issues, on, you know, starting back from the fact that he said he was against the war in iraq. We wont relitigate that. But he believes looking in very far from the outside in, not the inside out that theres something that theyre not doing. But these are experts in battle and experts, obviously, now after having been there for more than a decade in the region. And what they had suggested during the campaign and i remember there was a time that he said the military had been reduced to rubble and i interviewed mike pence afterward and he was trying to clarify. No, what mr. Trump meant it was the president who reduced them to rebel. You know, it was the commander in chief and it was his problem. Thats not what he said in that 60 minutes interview. You think it people still hating Industrial Complex and its part of the system and you have to go after it. Do you think that could explain it . All i know as commander in chief when he comes in and he has that first meeting with the generals and am military brass and he is, you know, going to be confront would the reality of what they know and what they have done, maybe well hear a different donald trump in the next interview after that. All right, thank you very much. Well be speaking to you, again, painfully soon. The story behind the campaign. Cnns chronicle of the 2016 election as it happened. Theres a stunning revelation in there that could have changed everything. Well tell you what it is, ahead. Every tv doctor knows scrubbing is serious business. They also know you need to get your annual checkup. Now with one touch using the mycigna app you can find a doctor in your plans network to save money. Need to be thorough. As you know by now, it was a race like no other. Cnn politics there capturing every unexpected twist and turn of this wild election. Compiling it all in its first ever book entitled unprecedented inside a shocking scoop on the historic election, including a major revelation about donald trump early in the campaign. Dana bash is here breaking the news this morning. Chris christie, donald trump had a deal, basically, that no one really knows about until now. Thats right. This is one of the more fascinating revelations in this book. And i should say it was reported by susan baer, who is one of the main reporters in this extraordinary book. And what her scoop is that in 2015, so, during the beginning of the campaign, that donald trump told Chris Christie that he didnt think he would make it past october. If that ended up coming to pass that he would end up endorsing Chris Christie. The two of them had been friend for quite some time. Obviously, that didnt happen. You know, donald trump took off. Was just somebody who was unstoppable and it was Chris Christie who was left, you know, staying in new hampshire, campaigning very hard and really not getting anywhere. That would help explain why Chris Christie was the first of Donald Trumps first rivals to come out and back him. I remember that vividly. The news hadnt leaked at all and a joint press conference and Chris Christie is backing him. But now Chris Christie has been taken out of the top r
