so we have it all covered for you. let's go to jason carroll. he is live at trump tower in new york city. jason. >> reporter: good morning, alisyn. anger on the streets, but at washington, d.c., it was all smiles with the president and president-elect had the first official meeting. trump taking time to refer to the president as quote good man. president-elect trump calling protests against his victory unfair. tweeting overnight that they are professional protesters incited by the media. this as largely peaceful protesters across the country take to the streets for the second night in a row. in portland, police classifying it as a riot. a stark contrast at the white house. trump speaking with president obama for an hour and a half inside the oval office.

>> we talked about foreign policy and domestic policy and as i said last night, my number one priority in the coming two months is to try to facilitate a transition that ensures our president-elect is successful. >> reporter: the pair striking a conciliatory tone. >> we discussed a lot of different situations. some wonderful and some difficulties. i very much look forward to dealing with the president in the future, including counsel. mr. president, it was a great honor being with you and i look forward being with you many more times in the future. thank you. >> reporter: kind words shared after years of vitriol. trump with the birther conspiracy and vowing to rip apart the obama legacy on the campaign trail. >> immediately repealing and

replacing obamacare. >> reporter: obama in turn rebuking trump's run. >> he is temperament ally unfit. >> reporter: and michelle obama meeting with melania in private. meeting with two when he was once at odds with. mitch mcconnell and paul ryan. >> we are looking forward to getting to work for the american people. donald trump has one of the most impressive victories we have ever seen. >> i think we will do some absolutely spectacular things for the american people. i look forward to starting. we can't get started fast enough. we will lower taxes as you know. we will fix health care and make it more affordable and better. it will be a real job for the public. that is what we are going to do. >> reporter: pausing to take in

the view from where he will be sworn in 70 days from now. so going forward, a source telling cnn trump will meet privately with people involved in the transition planning. trying to go over the 800 positions that require security clearan clearance. in terms of the protests. those show no signs of letting up with more protests planned for the weekend. chris and alisyn. >> all right. let's discuss how they fill the most more than job of all. president-elect. who is trump going to be? we are getting two pictures. let's bring in editor for theroot.com jason johnson and cnn political analyst and washington bureau chief for the daily beast jackie kucinich. the first theory is maya

angelou. when someone shows you who they are, believe them. when someone says something to win the campaign, he is more gracious and sensitive person which is why he was that way as president-elect. then comes the tweet. put it up on the screen. it was 48 or 72 hours? the protests are going on. they are not that big a deal. they are mostly in clinton country. and donald trump takes back to twitter. just a very open and successful presidential election. now professional protesters incited by the media, are protesting. very unfair. no proof or even allegation that the media has anything to do with it. they are organic groups of young kids. you don't see anonymous masks or blm people. he says it. how about the romney tweet? in 2012, trump did not like the outcome. he tweeted this. we can't let this happen. we should march on washington. our nation is totally divide.

profess professor? context or concern? >> this is horrifying. it is a threat to everyone who is an activist. to every ngo in the country. this is the man that trump is. this is who he ran to be. what . part of a peaceful transition is not just shaking hands are president obama. it is speaking to people who did not vote for you. not just it is time to come together. i am a law and order president. if you don't like me, protest legally and peacefully. those of you who support me like the klan, you are not part of trump's america. he is pushing us toward more violence and danger. this is unprecedented. >> jackie, you can't frame it any better than that. this is him reverting to campaign trump. maybe it is time for everybody to recognize campaign trump is

real trump. >> i never thought trump was anything but campaign trump. his supporters who he is still speaking to, love it. yesterday, when he was at the white house and in front of the cameras and he was very tame, i guess, for lack of a better word. he didn't have a protective press pool when he got there. protective press pools are not for the media. what happens is you have a group of people, small group of people that follow the president's every move. we get pool reports saying what he ate for breakfast and who he met with. it's like the mundane details most of the time of the president's life. >> why do we have that? >> so we know where he is. >> so the american public knows? >> it is not for nefarious reasons. it is for chronicling history. for the health and well being of

the president. >> and transparency. >> and he cut off that press pool? >> yes. >> which is breaking decades and decades of precedent. let's use an example. when president obama was president-elect. he was flying to washington. he had reporters with him. that's how we know that someone watched the weight of the presidency settle on his shoulders. that moment is forever preserved in time. we don't know what donald trump was like on the plane. no one was there to preserve it. it is not just because we're the media and we want to keep an eye on him. it has everything to do with history. i posted this on twitter yesterday. i had a bunch of people come back with me. media deserves to be cut off. it is not about us. it's about them. >> and constitution and transparency. >> and safety. i say it with all candor.

you have tumblers 24 hours after trump. they were saying this is the american brexit. we saw what happened after brexit and increase in violence. we saw the harassment against black and brown and tan people. we have documentation of this already. we have the black baby doll with a noose found in a dugout. we have the spray paint on the door front that says black lives don't matter and neither do your votes. it is his responsibility as president of the united states. maybe some of those people are supporters, maybe not. if you are president-elect of the united states, you speak to that immediately. you don't attack the press. >> the people around him, the people that is emerging, they have a very definite sense he deserves a shot. i would suggest objectively, of course. he just won the election. he has the mandate as president-elect. it is up to him to set the tone.

he does well out of the box. he did well going into the meeting. he was gracious with obama. people were covering what should have been a non event because it involved trump. then this tweet. his followers are saying you are making too much of it. everything he says you take it like it was the most important thing in the world. >> he is the president. it is time to stop lowering expectations. he is the president-elect. >> and they will say he is right. these protesters are a bunch of punks and you love it and you cover it to death. >> part of your job as president is creating a sense of calm and togetherness. when i get text messages from former students say should me and my girlfriend get married now? when i have friends with adoptive children who went to school crying because they think

tey are going to be sent back to china. the president of the united states has to be sensitive to those things. even if he doesn't think it is his responsibility. just like george bush and barack obama. >> i disagree with you. he did say that the other night. it is actions. it is actions at this point. >> what could he do? >> it is not tweeting. >> it's not tweeting. full stop. >> twitter is a terrible place. it is all negativity. because of its brevity, it encourages emotional responses. he is not anonymous. he is the most known person in the world now. i just can't believe they will let him do something that he struggles with and is so potentially dangerous as president-elect. >> what actions are you looking for, jackie? >> maybe it is just not

tweeting. to jason's point, you want to create a sense of calm. that doesn't create a sense of calm. in the acceptance speech, now is the time for everyone to come together. okay. don't do that. that's what i mean by actions. >> but yet, president obama, seems to come out of the meeting encouraged. it is hard to know with political speak what happened behind the scenes. when president obama came out and we'll play this moment now, he seemed to be assuaging people's fears. >> i had an excellent conversation with president-elect trump. we talked about some of the difficulties with the job. >> okay. that looked as conciliatory as it could look. what are you seeing? are you reading between the

lines? >> it seems clear to me one of the people is prepared to leave and one of these people is still figuring it out. i have no reason to believe that trump is seeking advice from president obama. it doesn't matter which conversation he has. you can have this conversation to no end. what concerns me is for the safety and well being of our country, this is before he has the full apparatus of the department of justice and fbi and everyone else working for and with him. if he cannot establish a rhetorical tone now, how will people feel when he actually takes the oath of office. >> thank you, jason and jackie. donald trump is preparing for briefing from his transition team today. what will his white house look like? the talking part is over. this is how you govern. jobs to be filled. plans to be made.

president-elect trump's transition team meeting him today after the meeting with paul ryan on thursday and laying out trump's agenda. >> a lot of really good thing. >> what was the top three? >> i have a lot. we will restore immigration and law and order and health care and looking at jobs. >> how will mr. trump's agenda impact president obama's legacy? we have jason johnson and jackie kucinich. if you could hear the audio there, it wasn't great. he talked about jobs. yesterday, rudy giuliani was here. he said cutting taxes is the

first thing on the agenda. what are you seeing? >> i look at what donald trump said he would do in the first 100 days. he wants to lower taxes. he has a really aggressive first 100 days. from a policy perspective, my concern is the affordable care act. they have every right to dismantle the affordable care act. if they decide to end that on day one, i wonder what the plan will be. i don't think we know. >> for the 20 million people who are already covered. what happens to them? >> and the contract holders. this is a very sophisticated piece of legislation that did not get the benefit of massaging bipartisa bipartisan. this was a play to strength by obama to use his legacy to get it through. you need a year of lead time

before they can change what those people are on anyway. does it make sense to go after something that you cannot immediately fix. >> they wanted to repeal obamacare from the get-go. there does need to be a plan with something else there rather than leaving people uninsured and holding the bag. we'll have to see what they do. you know, there have been proposals that they have been kicking around congress. this will be a very real and very big job that paul ryan and mitch mcconnell will have to usher through. >> they have said publicly they do want to continue to protect people with pre-existing conditions. i think they said they want to keep people up until 26 years old to be on parents plans. so it is not a wholesale dismantling. it is piecemeal.

>> yes. that's what we were talking about before. we don't know if it is a donald trump who says he will fix it or be slow and negotiate. if this is something the republican base has been begging for and pleading for years, i can't imagine this president dragging his feet. >> the transition team. again, as part of the give the man a chance. it takes time to build a team. what are you hearing? >> you are hearing a lot of newt gingrich put up for several positions. you are hearing senator jeff sessions perhaps secretary of defense. we're hearing a bunch of names for treasury. no one knows yet. our favorite parlor game. >> which way on the political team? bannon or priebus? >> chief of staff.

those two are stark contrasts. >> i am hoping and this is what came out of the d.c. after the original meetings. obama team will follow what george bush. he helped us out a lot. what i heard from d.c., they said a lot of the trump people because they have not worked in government, they were overwhelmed. i hope many republicans who are part of the establishment see it as their duty to help usher in this transition. you cannot start a new government with people who have no experience. >> you are hearing that. initially, we heard a lot of foreign policy experts and national security experts who wanted nothing to do with the trump administration. it is settling in they need help. like any new administration coming in. from the people who know this stuff best. >> are the national security people changing their tune? >> it has gone from never trump to okay. maybe donald trump. because they are seeing just how much needs to be done.

chief of staff, the key word, that is someone who makes the trains run on time. really staff. the manager. that's why you hear some of the people who are closer to trump push priebus. >> we heard his kids are pushing for priebus. he is inclined to steve bannon. if steve bannon, the head of breitbart. inflammatory web site. if he were chief of staff, what would that look like? >> i think it would be incendiary to the organizations out protesting now. if you hear word how steve bannon ran breitbart, it could be filled with hostility. i don't know if that's the precedent you want to set in d.c. one thing you have to realize is you are dealing with career bureaucrats. there will be people who say i have been here before you got

here and i will be here after you are gone. they will have trouble getting things done. >> not to mention how hostile he is to paul ryan. >> donald trump needs to get stuff done. >> how important with these, not the cabinet positions, but the political people he puts around him? how much of a reflection is that to everyone he works with every day? >> that's who they see every day. they don't see donald trump every day. the liaisons and people -- >> they are his face. >> they are his face. they are his representatives. it is critical that he strikes the right tone and picks -- he says he has the best people. he needs to do it. he needs to hire the best people. >> jackie, jason, thank you for your perspective. stick around. coming up in the 7:00 hour, we will hear from billionaire warren buffett about the election results. he sat down with our poppy

in youngstown. >> jobs. >> reporter: as the manufacturing jobs disappeared and businesses closed, many here like their factories turned to rusty red. >> i like to see him address the health care problem. >> reporter: caller after caller added on what they want their president to do. >> social security. we haven't gotten a raise in seven years. >> reporter: most want the administration to focus on immigration. get rid of obamacare. bring back jobs. and impossible? >> and rip up the iran nuclear deal. and the oldest watering hole, i talked across the bar with more celebrating trump backers. >> i expected this. i was confident in the election. >> reporter: jim's been a democrat all his life. until now. >> what do you want to see

don't build it? it's a real wall? not a real wall? >> i don't know whether a physical wall is the thing to do. i think there's probably other ways he can curb some of it. >> reporter: which brings us back to other things. obamacare. >> i would get rid of it and start over. you have to come up with something. you have to take care of people who can't take care of themselves. everybody knows that. >> reporter: you can't talk to trump voters without talking about something else. all those protesters. >> you haven't given the guy a chance yet. >> reporter: most don't believe the demonstrations are spontaneous anger. >> this is the government they want. they want chaos. they will give it to us. this is just the beginning. >> reporter: martin savaf savid cnn, youngstown, ohio. >> i think his voters took him seriously, not literally. we journalists take words

literally. we think words matter. we took the wall literally. they are more -- >> he may have benefitted from low expectations. that as long as he was saying the right things and talking about change they have not heard before and he represented something different was compelling to people. they have to remember that trump and many others called for protests after an election they didn't like in 2012. how you protest matters. riots are not protests. they are crimes. the police and those exposing themselves to pain and damage in portland are on the side of the right there. so donald trump's done something else with his new tweet. he is coming at us again. this is a new chance for trump as president-elect. he is doing what he does best. blaming the media. what does this mean for the relationship going forward? will donald trump as president be against the media? next.

so in the past 24 hours, there are already troubling signs of what president trump's relationship with the press would look like as he is in the white house. on twitter, mr. trump blamed the media for the anti-protests that popped up. he ditched the press pool traveling with him before and after his meeting with obama at the white house. joining us is the host of reliable sources brian stelter, to discuss. brian, there is a press pool that travels with the president at all times. why is that necessary? >> because we work for the public at home as jackie was saying earlier. it is important to know where

the president and president-elect are at all times. any news can happen at anytime. >> you want to know if the president is alive. you want to know if he is functioning and breathing. this is for transparency. >> it gives us a sense of what the president is doing at all times. it gives us a better sense of what our leader is doing on behalf of the citizens. >> what do you think trump tweeting at all? >> i'm trying to keep an open mind of what the president-elect's treatment of the press will be. he had a vicious anti-media crusade. i'm trying to keep an open mind. he has to keep an open mind about the press and press corps. these were two major mistakes. and the media inciting the protests without evidence. those were serious miscalculations. he needs people around him to

help him manage this and help him ensure a press pool exists and ensure access for journalists and take his twitter account away. >> if they don't like the press and he doesn't like the press, why doesn't he stop the press pool? in other words, was yesterday a mistake and miscalculation or harbinger? >> i think it was both. no matter what happens in the next four years, there's a cloud that hovers over his relationship with the media. he revoked news press credentials. he had the black list. he insulted journalists by name. if he does that in the next four years, there will be a chilling effect. journalists have to stand up more strongly. we have to be humble. we know many viewers don't trust

us. we have to show more strength if defending our role. this is about basic democratic values. you can hate journalists, but want them to be there to capture what trump says. >> he shares a basic opinion with the protesters i met in new york city. they didn't like the media either. both sides are blaming the media for not exposing the other side. maybe he could unify with the protests. no question journalists will not yield to power. we are not in the business to be popular. something people on television learn the hard way very often. that relationship can work for the president. nobody has used the media the way president-elect has. again, let's see what he does over time. >> i was shocked to see him use the media on twitter. >> he said the media. >> he was critical of the protesters and media and he was tweeting at all. i suppose i thought the twitter

account would be taken away. people around him professionals who know how this should work have not stepped in is surprising. >> they had in the last two weeks of the campaign. maybe kellyanne conway had to take a nap yesterday. >> maybe it is that simple. the media does not protests. people who protest for a variety of left wing causes. these are the people who show up in the dakotas during the pipeline protest and also show up at the trump event. these are not all professional protesters. some people are emotional. >> the presence of cameras can be an accelerant. i have been part of it. >> if that is what he means by incitement. >> why should i read the new book? >> i have an except from megyn

kelly's book. the day before the first debate, mr. donald trump was in a lath era gain. he called and said he heard her first question was a pointed question directed at him. this was disconcerting to her. >> someone was speaking in a back channel to trump of what was to come of the debate. this is highly disturbing. she is not saying she believes the question was leaked. she is insinuating that. >> when all the talk came out about donna brazile, did megyn kelly disclose this? >> she did not. she prosecuted the case against cnn aggressively. >> in her book, she was waiting to cash in on this tasty tid-bit. she never said it during the

coverage of the event of questions and if they made it to hillary clinton. >> that's 100% right. i think she will have to answer questions about that during the book tour. >> save it for the book? >> sometimes that is what writers do. i would say, with regard to megyn kelly, she talks about trump challenging her and being creepy toward her and revenge against her. i think we need to pay attention to the tale she is saying about her relationship with trump was like. there are warning signs for the white house press corps in her book. >> brian, thank you. melania trump is about to become the first foreign-born first lady in modern times. she kept a low profile as her husband hit the campaign trail. is she ready to take on the public role? cnn's randi kaye has more.
