obama and hopefully will get it to you. the president called it an excellent meeting. >> we talked about some of the organizational issues in the white house and talked about foreign policy and as i said last night. >> mr. president, it was a great honor to being with you. and look forward to being with you many more times, thank you. >> we are not going to take any questions. >> that's call the white house pool spray. send in one camera and a still photographer and at the end they cut the mike and at one point you don't hear it. it was not recorded on the audio, mr. trump said barrack obama is a good man. a lot of the old grudges slowly patched up real quickly. and the job of transitioning to the new president. >> thank you for that. and getting more color as far as donald trump's time in washington d.c. we have producers tracking his movement from the white house to it the capitol club. and trump gave reporters the thumps up. and support issers are on the street and one holding a trump sign and mafrng you, melania sign. a

like obama and affordable care act. while the president talks about trying to make this transition as smooth as possible. i got to believe that at some levels and many levels, it is going to be a tough thing. >> you talked about yesterday of the mood at the white house, just specifically of your point of obamacare, we have these new numbers from the department of health and human services that sign ups for obamacare and the open enroll m periment period i than 100,000 people selected plans on healthcare.gov. that was on wednesday. the fact that there is going to be an executive order that he launches. the mood today is lighter. the sun has returned and people su understand that the earth will continue to spin on its axis. >> has the mood lighten a little bit? >> reality is grasping people. yesterday and right after the election and that night, a lot of people are having trouble. and now the feeling is lets get to work and do what we have to do and make the final 70 some days of the administration productive. the focus i

obama and trump, bitter political foes, meet for the first time. the president who accused trump of being unfit to serve and trump, who accused obama of being an illegitimate president. what they said behind closed doors as anti-trump protests erupt around the country. >>> also, where hillary clinton was spotted today smiling after that devastating defeat. >>> plus, "nbc nightly news" exclusive, we have the names of the people president-elect trump wants to have access to america's top secrets. some surprises and some controversial. >>> officers ambushed while responding to an emergency. a gunman opens fire. >>> and the app trap. just in time for the holiday shopping rush, crooks and thieves are infiltrating the app store. tonight, buyer beware. >>> "nightly news" begins right now. >> announcer: from nbc news world headquarters in new york, this is "nbc nightly news" with lester holt. >>> good evening. no meeting was more anticipated or potentially more awkward. barack obama and donald trump, president and president-elect, coming face to face today

president obama: what is your name? [indiscernible] president obama: nice to meet you. you are a student? >> yes. [cheers] president obama: you have some classmates here. the united states is such a big country that after an election people are uncertain. i think it will take -- i think it will be important for everybody around the world to not make the media judgments -- immediate judgments, but give the new president elect a chance to examine issues, to determine what their policies will be, because what i have said is the way that you campaign is not the way you will govern. we are trying to stir up passions, but when you govern you have reality in front of you and you have to decide, how will i make this work. the alliance between the u.s. and europe through nato is very strong. and the president elect, donald trump, has already reaffirmed our commitment to native -- to nato. we have been asking for europe to carry more of the burden of defense spending than they have been doing, because the united states spends a lot more than some of our partners. and they recogni

we saw that great picture of michelle obama hugging george w. bush at a recent event where they were altogether and of course they've been in touch with the clintons, as well during their administration and it helps when you're taking an office that you don't fully know and don't fully understand when you have questions -- >> there's one caveat though. there's one caveat. president bush and president obama never ran against each other. >> sure. >> so there was never a face-to-face conversation. now, surely, president obama said some things about president bush, getting into the economic turmoil and the depression and all of that and going to war, but they never had a chance to go head-to-head and really really combat each other. continue on, sorry. >> don't forget, don, president obama went head-to-head with hillary clinton and not only did he -- and president clinton pretty well insulted president obama during that campaign. it was a really, really harsh campaign, really divisive for democrats and at the end, not only did they work together, bu

and the obama coalition is never going to be the obama coalition again. we have to grow our share of electorate, and that has to include more middle-class white voters. we have to be focused on that. >> i felt like i was hearing that 24 hours ago from the republican party. >> we mentioned before, there's a bit of an irony to run as a populist, and then you move to the white house and you have to be president. from the federal government. how does that play out with donald trump riding in on that rhetorical horse? arriving there, trying to keep the faith with the people that voted him in after saying he would shake up the establishment, but now has to run the place. with some real establishmentarians like paul ryan. >> that is what will make or break the first 100 days is the relationship between donald trump and paul ryan. >> i mentioned before, the idea of normalizing donald trump. how a lot of your colleagues and maybe you, criticizing people in the press -- you say that you cannot treat him like a normal president. he is being greeted tomorrow at the w

president barack obama and donald trump a frequent critic of barack obama. we've got former navy seal karl should be with us kirsten had been in marjorie clifton. see you first because they could probably make devices that would allow us to tap into that room. having not been able to get to you in time, these things are kind of just general. they really get into the weeds. they been made in long enough to to make you think they could be getting into this in a little more detail that is customarily the case. what think? >> first off, it's not going to do anyone any good to brawl in the oval office are arguing things like that. neil: come on, it would be fun. >> if you are the fly on the wall would be fun. these two people believe complete opposite from each other on government policies so it's going to be interesting. president obama seemed to allude to the fact you would have a smooth transition for him the respect of making double trouble do the same. neil: we put so much pressure on these events. they are icebreakers more than anything else although they c

barack obama is still barack obama. that is a moment where the weight and gravity has hit you full force. mark: if you had seen that photo, you would say, well, looks good. john: if jeb bush were president-elect, a similar meeting with have taken place. after trump left today, he spent time with two republicans who, despite the public into relationships with trump over the past months, will be vitally important to executing a legislative agenda. first, house speaker paul ryan. mr. trump: i think we will do spectacular things for the american people. we can't get started soon enough. john: after that meeting, ryan gave a tour of the balcony a much donald trump will be sworn in january. after a meeting with mitch mcconnell, trump told leaders, quote, we are going to work very strongly on immigration, health care, and we are looking at jobs, big league jobs. mark, apart from the fact that he did not say big league and said bigly, what do you make of the optics and the meetings up on capitol hill? mark: the optics and the w

very much, president obama. this was a meeting that was going to last for maybe 10 or 15 minutes, and we were just going to get to know each trth. we had -- each other. we had never met each other. i had great respect. the meeting lasted for almost an hour and a half. and it could have -- as far as i'm concerned, it could have gone on for a lot longer. we discussed a lot of different situations, some wonderful and some difficulties. with the president in the future, including couns counsel. he explained some of the difficulties, some of the high-flying assets and some of the -- some of the really great things that have been achieved. so mr. president, it was a great honor being with you. and i look forward to being with you many, many more times in the future. >> good luck. thank you. >> still cameras clicking away, capturing that moment. that wasn't the only highly anticipated where mr. trump -- with mr. trump today. nbc has details. >> reporter: trump at the white house today trying to rebuild the bridges he b

carolina: donald trump y barack obama se han dado la mano oficialmente. la reuniÓn fue a puerta cerrada en la casa blanca. javier: el presidente barack obama dijo que fue una excelente conversaciÓn. reiteró que su prioridad es hacer una transiciÓn pacÍfica. carolina: donald trump dijo que esperaba tener respeto por el presidente y esperaba trabajar con Él en el futuro. javier: nosotros estuvimos durante esta maÑana siguiendo lo que iba a ser esta reruniÓn y muchos de ustedes tambiÉn en las redes sociales. porque wow, quÉ importante era esta primera reuniÓn en la cual el presidente barack obama dijo que el nuevo presidente electo necesita todo el apoyo tambiÉn para poder gobernar cuando comience el 20 de enero. carolina: a pesar de haber sido como enemigos en los Últimos dÍas de campaÑa, ahorita se dan la mano y dice donald trump que barack obama es un buen hombre y barack obama dice que le darÁ todo su apoyo para que sea lo mÁs pacÍfico posible. javier: la cita se cumpliÓ para comenzar la transiciÓn y dejar atrÁs los sinsabores de la

there were obama '12 voters that voted trump. it's clear it was an economic message that they were trying to send. how did this happen? >> well, i think that people have been looking at 40 years of flat wages. you know, the reality is, you got folks in diners and hair shops and barber shops all over this country who look at their own lives and think, you know, my parents did better than i'm doing and my kids might not do as well as i'm doing. that's because wages have been flat for so long. they feel like there's two systems of justice. over there at wells fargo, you had all this scandal going on other folks get a lot of trouble for doing less. the truth is, we have got to make america work for working people again. we have to have a shared prosperity. we have to make that our job number one. chuck, four minimum wage ballot measures succeeded tuesday. people want a better economic playing field for working americans. they're voting for it. our job is to people know the democratic party is the party that is going to deliver that f

michelle obama and melania trump held a private meeting. it was the first time they spoke face-to-face and discussed raising kids together and mrs. obama showed mrs. trump, the former state rooms and the truman balcony. vice president-elect mike pence discussing his upcoming duties and looked over biden's policy portfolios that include the nato alliance and expanding access to the middle class. biden and pence have been friends since they served in congress together from 2001 until 2009. there's talk donald trump could be looking inside his own family to find his chief of staff. trump's son-in-law jared kushner was seen walking with obama's chief of staff denis mcdonough at the white house. was also a key adviser during the campaign. >>> the trump team shook things up with the media breaking protocol and bucking a long-standing practice of allowing reporters to track america's new leader. mr. trump left new york city without pool reporters and kept them in the dark during his historic first meetings with leaders in washington including pres

we saw that with michelle obama, as well. the fact that she has the strong surrogates and spread out a little bit more than the trump campaign. which is why it was striking that you saw pence and trump in pennsylvania yesterday. >> mark, we have a little bit interesting bush family news. this is george p. bush who is jeb's son and he said yesterday that he felt, believe, maybe he had insider information, that his uncle, george w. bush, 43, was going to vote or could likely vote for hillary over trump. and, of course, this follows the news this summer that his grandfather, george h.w. bush was going to vote for hillary over trump. what do you make out of that? >> not aer. look, the trumps and the bush hate each other. a very bitter battle as our viewers all know during the republican primary. at the same time, you had donald trump. he has run this campaign as an anti-bush campaign. he has been very critical of his stewardship of the two terms of the country. george p. bush on the other hand has a future ahead of him. he's look

first time meeting michelle obama too. first lady whose inspiring convention speech in 2008 -- >> because we want our children and our children in this nation to know -- >> because we want our children in this nation to know -- >> reporter: clearly inspired the next first lady's speech in 2016. >> that the only limit to the the reach of your dreams and willingness to work hard for them. >> that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them. >> reporter: out on the campaign trail, michelle obama did not color punches about donald trump. >> i can't believe i'm saying that a candidate for president of the united states has brag about sexually assaulting been awkward for them too. we're told they had a tour, sat for tea, talked about what it's like to raise children in the white house, but this is not any ordinary meeting. >> reporter: maybe not, but trump was happy tweeting a fantastic day, really good meeting. great chemistry. melania liked mrs. o a lot. it was a goo

i've seen people come out in droves for obama in 2008. i have seen them not couple out in our governor's race in 2009. what happened after that race, the earned income tax credit was cut, protecting millionaires in our state but cutting poor people, raising taxes on poor people. attacked. elections have consequences. name it whatever you want, but when you don't come out and vote, some people might think, it's not going to affect my life. but there are people in this nation on margins that elections like this will hurt and will have a deep impact. again, that's why put me in the opposition. put me in those people that are going to resist those things in our country that are going to happen now where the folks who now are in power have said -- they have told us who they are. they have an agenda that's going to hurt those folks who are americans struggling. we're going to have to do everything question to fight against that to make sure that even though we didn't get big turnouts where we needed -- we had the votes we needed to win. even th

and obama's predecessors. yes, there is a big opportunity here for that relationship to be built. of course trump comes into office under the shadow of the idea that, you know, the kremlin may have been involved in trying to distort the election campaign. >> matthew chance live for us tonight in moscow thank you very much. nic robertson is in irbil, iraq, when trump becomes our next commander in chief he not only inherits the fight against isis he is obviously now getting intelligence breathe briefings in the midst of the fight for mosul. >> no previous president has come into a situation in the mooel middle east where the situation is so chaotic and so dangerous -- united states allies, the relationships here are a house of cards built on sand. there is support for donald trump's willingness to take isis head on. he has had congratulatory messages from the president of iraq from the president of the kurdish region here. but there is concern, concern about what donald trump said about muslims. this is a muslim

you saw president obama meeting with donald trump in the oval office after their meeting, president obama went outside to welcome the nba champions. >> lebron james and the rest of the cavaliers hop norred for their win against the golden state warriors, and they presented the president with a jersey for his collection there. in the remarks, the president reminded everyone that he's a chicago bulls fan. >> i should add by knocking off 1996 bulls as the greatest team of all time. so your president thanks you for that. >> that's a good one. >> after the jersey presentation, it was time for the team photo. check out the reaction of the guard. >> like, why? here's why. >> he's -- >> look. he's just got this shock and awe on his face, right? the president's podium was taken away. he tweeted the president said work moving that podium out of the way thinking, wow, that's power. >> like, i don't know if he thought it was a permanent podium, the presidential podium doesn't move, but just, like -- >> he was impressed because he just said "team" and they moved. >> boom. >> he's a man he tweeted late

and changes to obama care. some aspects of the affordable care act may stay and the president-elect is getting support from republicans on capitol hill who say they were planning to keep parts of obama care that worked. >> we've said from day one. keeping kids under 26 on the parent's policies and making sure we take care of those in one way or another. and folks with preexisting conditions and make sure you don't have limits on lifetime coverage. those are part of our replacement plan. >> will car deteriorate r live in los angeles. what else does he want upon to change in >> reporter: you heard what he wants to keep. and there is a big list of things to change. it is on great again.gov. protect individual conscience and protecting workers from performing services against religious bloefs. he wants to protect innocent life including rates increasing for 40 states and subsidies do help but consumers are not haup. republicans at a they are ready for a system to be put in problem. ? i would be shocked if we didn't

by the way, barack obama did that very effectively himself. the only difference is that i believe that the mistake that barack obama made that i think he will regret for the rest of his life, is that he never reached really across the aisle to get republicans on board. and that means republicans have no buy-in. look, donald trump could, in the first year of his office, almost entirely repeal the entire legacy of barack obama's presidency when talking about taxes and obamacare and so on. >> i take your point and reaching out to democrats, but here's the issue. they are going to ask for a price. and their price is going to be a fair amount of spending to push it into public works or other things. and if you want senate votes to get to 60, he'll have to agree with it. he's going to have a big-time deficit if he does that. what is your response to that? >> this is the number one priority from day one. you have the economic growth rate up to 1.5% to 4%. you can't make any progress on the deficit or the debt until you've got that growth rate up. and

trump meets president obama for the first time, and melania trump sitting down with michelle obama. what was discussed at the white house and on capitol hill. and the trump team's one big break from what past presidents have done. >> we're reading the body language and expert analysis from the trump/obama meeting. what their eye contact and seating position said. >>> and caught on camera, a car smashes through a store. a customer inside inches away >> good friday morning, everyone. i'm kendis gibson. >> and i'm adrienne bankert in for diane. we begin with anti-trump anger spilling into the streets again overnight. >> it is happening right now. the protests in portland, oregon, taking a violent turn escalating into what police called a riot as protesters vandalize cars and buildings, smashing windows, hurling projectiles at police. a live look at portland right now in the early morning hours. you can see police iri are still out there in force and you can also see that they have made several arrests. people there in custody, and this is after protesters have been throwing glass bottl

i don't think president obama would pardon her. i don't think president obama has liked the clintons that much to go that far. i certainly don't think donald trump will do that. >> very interesting. >> i think that president trump should pardon her. sense of reconciliation. then he could hire her as a supervisor in the cyber security division. could you have assange in charge. but she would be the boss. could you have snowden run i.t. >> would you like to continue public service, ambassador to libya perhaps. >> i notice bulletin from reality that on capitol hill there are republicans who want to pursue this. one wants to go after the clintons. he wants to not go after comey and the fbi. why didn't you do this? meanwhile, chaffetz says we're looking into hillary clinton. you talk about vindictive. jim comey made a decision not to prosecute. right? >> not about the clinton foundation. >> he put his finger on the scale in the midst of the election. i don't understand why you would bother jim comey. interesting question is, what does p

by the way, what does president obama think of this recount? he has eight weeks left to finish his term and i think it's hillary clinton's counsel and perhaps her to interfere with the last eight weeks of president obama's legacy. president obama and president-elect trump speak regularly. they spoke yesterday at length. they're trying to move on and form a government. it's high time that hillary and her supporters do the same. >> we'll have to leave it there. thanks very much. kellyanne conway. and coming up, as the battle of trump's secretary of state heats foreign policy team. and a recount is under way in wisconsin. two more states could follow. does the clinton camp have a shot or is it false hope? i'll ask senator bernie sanders back in just two minutes. >> "this week" with george stephanopoulos is brought to you by mucinex. mucinex clear and cool. ah! what's this sudden cooooling thing happening? it's got a menthol burst. clears my terrible cold symptoms. ahh! this is awkward. new mucinex fast-max clear & cool. feel the menthol burst. and

president obama has mocked military action. he has made political promises to say that he is not going to start any new wars. so i think it's really important for people to understand at the u.n., in the international community, our friends, our allies and even, even our enemies that donald trump sends a very credible threat of military action. we have one president at a time, and this current president, president obama, has still 2 1/2 months before leaves in late january. isis needs to be told that it is not, it doesn't have a free area until early february. that would be a disaster. what is happening right now throughout syria is really troubling. martha: understood but don't you think they are doing airstrikes every single day and they have pushed isis back over the course of their time there? >> i don't buy that we have 63 coalition partners and nato and we've been bombing for five plus years and we can't find the command-and-control center. we have a problem with intelligence, and we don't have accurate and timely intelli

it is obama stimulus two. and i think paul ryan and the congressional republicans will push to get it paid for -- >> donald trump said growth and we're going to have growth and bring jobs back and create growth. >> and that will pair it with tax reform and so it will be a little bit different than obama stimulus but he wants to probably start out on a bipartisan note and do something that the democrats will get behind, a compromise. he is smart also to push ivanka trump's childcare initiative because that is something that -- >> you don't think he is making a -- >> you don't think they will go for that. >> another entitlement. >> that is another entitlement program. >> i think he will go for that. because to start with, he will repeal a lot of the obama agenda and a big fight about obama care and the congressional review act and there is 150 obama regulations on the chopping block ready to go and he will do that. executive orders gone, paris treaty, gone. >> and a single tear -- >> i'm getting excited. this is

the other thing is, obama care. obama care is a $1 trillion entitlement. we can cut that significantly. >> we may be talking about real money. >> penny saving out of -- next time i'll bring -- >> bring me my penny. good to see you. liz? >> interview after the break, generations of cuban exiles have waited decades for this day. miami's little havana celebrates the death of a despised cuban dictator. >> generations of cubans are celebrating the death of a dictator. not the death of a human being, but the death of a dictator. a dictator that has hurt the lives of at least four generations of people. inside and outside the island. ♪ this artoo unit must be delivered to the rebellion. come on artoo! ♪ artoo! welcome to the rebellion. ♪ this is for you. duracell and children's miracle network hospitals are powering imaginations everywhere. that goes beyond assuming beingredients are safe...ood to knowing they are. going beyond expectations... because our pets deserve it. beyond. natural pet food. >>> fox news alert as we continue to follow reaction in the

obama seldom held a cabinet meeting. hopefully this president will hold cabinet meetings and he will have freedom he wants to hear from rather than push away. >> the cabinets have so much responsibility delegated to them is they go off and run their own fiefdom. lou: there are three folks i'm interested in and that's certainly rudy giuliani. >> great choice. >> jeff sessions. >> great choice. lou: and chris christy. i think those three people he should hold close to him as he can have. i would like them to be with him because they have been soldiers for him and i think he can trust them. >> giuliani is a perfect choice for attorney general. he's the number three guy in the reagan administration. he knows that system. obviously he will appoint all the u.s. attorneys and all the rest and do it very, very well. lou: what do you think of having a son-in-law in the chief of staff. it's a family business he's running. >> he's got to be careful of nepotism laws. there is a specific nepotism law. lou: they would all have to take

barack obama had has the presidency now for eight. they're not talking about what they did for health care. they're not talking about what they did for national security. they're not talking about jobs. that's the difference between hillary clinton -- >> nobody is. >> no, donald trump -- >> actually, obama talked about health care quite a lot today. >> donald trump and president obama drew big crowds when they campaigned today. this annoying runny nose. better take something. dayquil liquid gels doesn't treat a runny nose. it doesn't? alka-seltzer plus cold and cough liquid gels fight your worst cold symptoms including your runny nose. oh, what a relief it is! don't put off checking out your options until sixty-five. now is a good time to get the ball rolling. consider an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. like any of these types of plans, it could help you with out-of-pocket medical costs. call now and request your free decision guide and explore the range of aarp medicare supplemen

president obama has proven me wrong. again, so there's this nastiness about the carter administration. i think it's important to understand that if you go back to those first 100 days, you can start to see the seeds of what i believe caused the eventual demise of the carter administration. i'm not saying that as a warner that within the first 100 days every president could fail. but there's something a little bit different about the carter presidency than when we talk about the first 100 days in more recent times. for example, i'm sure both peter and max will talk about when we think of the first 100 days, we think, well, presidents have domestic agendas. all of a sudden, they're hit with foreign policy crises. well, that's really not what happens during the carter administration. i want to make a couple of broad points. the first is i think you have to look at the overall foreign policy lessons of the first 100 days within the context of carter's overall record. maybe that's the same for all presidencies. but with carte

the same thing that president obama is doing. frankly, it's the same thing that michelle obama's doing. and if you look at what michelle obama said, she said, going high means going to vote. means making your voice heard. means, making sure that everybody hears loud and clear, especially donald trump, that the way that he has run this campaign with the bigotry and the racism and the misogyny is not going to be accepted, in american culture. >> david? >> i think maybe there's a misinterpretation here. i think there's a basic rule in presidential politics, especially as you're coming down the last leg of it. and that is when your opponents' poll numbers are going low, you go high. but when the race is close, candidates tend to slug it out. >> we have the michelle obama whisperer, here. >> the issue in this campaign, right now, is donald trump and his fitness to be the president of the united states. that's the bottom line. >> well, also for a lot of trump supporters, hillary clinton and her fitness -- >> that's where i was going. a

obama's executive orders. vowed to undo what was done with the pen and the phone in that famous quote from president obama so what goes first? fox news shannon bream has the story. >> president obama said he was going to use his pen and phone to get things done but i think he is about to become acquainted with the trump meet ax. >> president-elect donald trump has made his intentions clear vowing on day one to cancel every unconstitutional executive action and order made by president obama. it's something that will be completely within his powers as the new commander-in-chief. simply by issuing his own executive orders. experts say along with the tens of thousands of pages of rules and regulations added to the federal register over obama's last two terms, a trump administration should also expect a flurry of new items to deal with. >> i suspect that in the final days, there are going to be people within this administration that are looking to push so-called midnight regulations out the door and basically exert

and barack obama did win quite a few of them. the problem is that this year, hillary clinton did not win a lot of these same folks. she did not -- towns like toled she did 15 points worse than obama in these towns and lost these states. the question is what do you need to do to get them back? and it's not -- it shouldn't be that hard of a problem because, again, you had them just four years ago. it's just that this year, somehow the message -- the message didn't get through the way it did four years ago that the democrats are the party that's on your side. four years ago, they were so good at driving that message against mitt romney and this year it just wasn't getting through. part of that's donald trump but part of it is also the direction that the democratic party and the candidate who was running this year had headed these last couple years. >> yeah, that's a -- i mean, people forget a little bit, 2012, barack obama pounded mitt romney for being essentially an out of touch multimillionaire tough who made his whole earnings of

president obama admired that. but look, i can't make any promises now for what exactly president obama will do once he leaves office. >> in the next 70-some odd days is there a strategy that the white house has, the president has, to try to preserve and protect certain aspects of what he's accomplished here? what are the priorities? >> well, i think the first priority is insuring the smooth and transition. but there's also the priority that the president places on making sure as the chief of staff likes to say, is we run through the tape. that the president and his team use every moment that's remaining to do the work of the american people and to effectively implement the kinds of policies that president obama has priorized over the course of his presidency. >> what are some of those priorities now, given the change of administration, given the fact that donald trump has won the presidency. what specifically is the focus? what are the priorities? >> i don't know that i can give a comprehensive list of some of the

president obama is from chicago, he's here on the show -- >> barack obama?

because trump is not only a critic of president obama, he's the guy who tried to prove that obama wasn't born here. >> so we're hearing about unity. but we're seeing a different picture in some cities. protesters taking to the streets, some blocking highways as you can see. others setting fire and chanting, quote, not my president. we have it all covered for you. let's begin with athena jones live at the white house. hi, athena. >> hi, alisyn. this is not the meeting president obama was hoping to have or expecting to have he spent months saying that he didn't think donald trump would ever be president. well, now donald trump is going to be president, and so the focus has to shift to the peaceful handover of power. the white house has talked about how much they appreciated the way george w. bush's team handled that transition back in 2008. and 2009. it was smooth. it was professional. this is something the president spoke about again yesterday in the rose garden. >> i have instructed my team to follow the example that president bush's team set eight years ago and work as hard as we can to

obama is fine. he did great and as you compare them with trump and his approval ratings are so high people love him and pay for him ever pray fy sunday in church. [laughter] trump is so bad that when something is bad even it looks good. [laughter] i know you didn't ask me all that -- [laughter] this focus is about president obama and his administration and you made the point the party also had a part to play in that. michael earlier made the point that though the hope and change was important in terms of the cultural response but certainly black american. it still didn't translate into policy that he could pinpoint. a lot of the criticism for president obama was in the rain should of what he could do regarding policy. there is no emphasis on targeting the policy for african-americans specifically. i know you've been a chief critic about this, so for many people -- >> he said in the midst of 2012 in the second run for president just to clarify, i'm the president of the united states, not a black amer

your views would be so welcome so you make the point to sum up president obama, president-elect obama going into the white house that a transition can be a this aggregate series of events and you recommend and suggest a governing narrative to pool that together which i thought was compelling. >> guest: one of the problems when you are preparing a transition is people doing separate things. todd stern working on executive orders, presidential appointments, a variety of people, that portfolio passed through a lot of people. people working on that age working with relationships on the hill, and all those things are done separately. that is a necessity. what one needs to do is make the transition from what your campaign was of the presidential candidate to the president of the united states. what is the narrative going to be about? what is it you are going to be doing? what is your focus going to be? i thought one unused opportunity obama had to do that, he gave a speech at georgetown university in april of 2009. in it he talked about the pillars of his presidency, things like healthcare,

as we consider the accomplishments of the obama administration. >> obama came in on a wave of magic. >> how will you remember his presidency? then -- new at 11:00meet the man who traveled 100- voters. >> how much time will they give the new president to deliver promises? >> plus,what's it like to live meal to meal? what you need to know. but first. did the president who campaigned for hope and change hit the mark? i'm soledad o'brien.

clinton missed obama's mark by a lot. she got almost 240 just look at milwaukee, a city the clinton team banked on winning big. clinton got 43,000 fewer votes than obama did. turnout was down overall, which suggests those folks didn't switch parties, they simply stayed home. those folks lost votes in milwaukee alone were enough to cost her the state. she lost wisconsin to donald trump by roughly 27,000 votes. wow. clinton needed to revive the wisconsin, along with michigan and ohio and pennsylvania, she wasn't able to do that. she needed to make sure obama voters didn't become trump voters. clearly in some states that happened too. coming up, looking forward. how [vo] wells fargo is making changes to make things right. first, all customers who have been impacted will be fully refunded. second, a confirmation will be sent when new personal or small business checking, savings or credit card accounts are opened. for our retail bankers to ensure your interests are put first. we're taking action. america's beverage companies,

clinton, it turns out, is not barack obama. she couldn't motivate those supporters in the same number and she wasn't making outreach to white, working class voters were fueling trump so she wasn't fighting for them and in the end that hurt her. she didn't have women to make up the gap? lisa: women did not turn out in campaignrs that her expected, particularly women bute educated she wasn't making the argument for them, she wasn't going to places to make that fight. they didn't see the battleground map. they weren't calculating wisconsin and michigan in their plans until very late so it was a complete shock. irony is that these are the people that fueled bill clinton to victory twice. are his voters, people he understood and throughout the campaign he was arguing to her campaign staff, we need to go to wisconsin, we need to go to michigan and they said, no, no, anymore,t how it works we're ok, we don't need to go to turns out heand it was right. pete: did trump's only people coming? were there people in the back room that saw it
