we're going to talk about the snow and cold air. i want to start off with the snow. look, there's going to be big totals around the great lakes with the lake-effect snow but the real big totals will be in the pacific northwest. what's going on? you have not this low pressure system sitting offshore and it is spinning and spinning and spinning and what it's doing, it's dragging in moisture. that moisture tail depose all the way out to hawaii. so there will be huge totals in the mountains. take a look at what we're talking about. wasatch you may see that 1 to 3 foot range but the cascades 2, 4 feet of snow, possibly 5 feet of snow and it looks like it wants to stick around as well because it's all about the temperatures. look at this, i know we've been talking a lot about bismarck, north dakota, again, you are the icebox in the country, 13 below at 2:00 in the afternoon it what it feels like when you factor in the winds could feel as cold as 25 below zero at that hour. over the next 8 to 14 days you are looking at the temperature staying below average in the northern plains extending all

the way to new england and for places like bismarck, you know, today on the thermometer it gets up to maybe 2 below zero, tomorrow i think they will hit 1. 1 degree for all my friends there in bismarck. over to you, norah. president-elect trump goes back to campaigning today in louisiana. where our runoff election for an open senate seat is tomorrow. he will also go to michigan after stopping in columbus, ohio and des moines eye yesterday. his approval rating road rose to 41% during the transition, that's 10 points below george w. bush in 2001 and more than 30 points less than president obama in 2008. major garrett is covering the trump transition. good morning. >> good morning. the president elect traveled to iowa last night that's a battle ground state he won handily. while there vowed to stop extremism, thanked women for his vote and praised himself for cabinet choices he said will make the country rich again. >> yet one more tragic reminder that immigration security is now

a fortune because now they're negotiating with you. >> fast food restaurant ceo andrew puzder as labor secretary. puzder is ceo of cke restaurants the parent company of carl's jr. and hardee's. puzder opposes raises the minimum wage, arguing it cuts jobs by unnecessarily increasing labor costs. he wrote a book entitled "job creation: how it really works and why government doesn't understand it" ". >> people who would rely on big government instead of free markets simply do not understand how jobs and kraers are -- careers are created. >> the president elect will carry another title into the oval office, executive producer of the show he once hosted, the celeb brit apprentice. the executive producer credit does not mean america's chief executive to be will have an active role in the reality tv show. it does mean mr. trump will receive royalties for an idea he helped conceive and a show he

holds a stake in. this is perfectly normal in show base and presidents have made outside income before, usually from book royalties, president obama reported $5.1 million in book sales his first year in office. charlie, that amount fell to $56,000 last year. >> thanks, major. cbs news political director and face the nation moderator john dickerson is with us. >> good morning, charlie. >> let's talk about tweeting. >> let's talk about tweeting. >> a method of criticizing the wealth of his cabinet and how trump responds. >> well, i think he -- i mean, donald trump's argument is these people have been successful in private enterprise and they will be really successful in government. the request he is a couple things. one, what does success mean to donald trump, if your job is to bring in and dismantle a department that's a different level of success than we would have seen in the past. the second thing is do they have a public service instinct. that's different than in private enterprise. you care about the public good you're not just caring about the bottom line. the other thing is what truman

said about eisenhower which is when you come in and you are a general and you are used to issuing orders sometimes the bureaucracy says -- just doesn't listen. so if you're used to being in private enterprise where people do exactly what you say what's it going to be like when you come into government. >> president obama and his administration and his labor secretary put in a lot of what they call worker protections. if you install someone like who he's nominating for the labor secretary what kinds of things on a practical effect might a worker experience? >> well, mr. puzder -- there are two things, one that work -- enforcement of worker protections, enforcement of all the existing regulations that are there, then there would be removing what they would see as burdensome on business. so everything from paperwork to -- i mean, a lot of it is osha, a lot is workplace safety stuff. the other thing is being on the lookout for new things. i'm arguing now from sort of the obama case. as a labor secretary would be on the lookout for new and possible

abuses of two,ers that if the interests are not aligned the way they would be in the obama administration you wouldn't have that kind of always searching the landscape for ways to protect workers. now what they would say on the trump side is this he would be on the lookout for ways to make it easier for businesses to work in an unfettered way which creates greater profits that then go back to the workers. >> he's scheduled to have his first news conference next week where he's going to play out his plans, what he's going to do with his company. what's at stake for him at this event next week. >> i guess -- >> is there anything at stake for him next week? >> we're kind of learning still what it means for things to be at stake for donald trump. in other words, in the old days we would have said, well, he wants to show that he's presidential, he wants to show that he can get through a press conference, but donald trump is redesigning this job and so he will do you could imagine what he has tried to do all throughout the campaign which was take an old form, a press conference and use it in his own way. remember when he told his press kmpss essentially into pr events for his hotel. you can imagine he will try to

capture this -- >> do we expect to see the president of the united states -- my original question -- simply to be tweeting throughout his presidency and making comments about everything that comes to under the sun. >> no follow-up to a tweet. >> there are people advising donald trump and newt gingrich has said it out loud stop doing this. the presidential voice is one that you can squander. it is not -- it is not a good that just is constantly renewing and you need to do this judiciously. we saw during the campaign there were times that he stopped this tweeting, but he is a -- he has successfully learned how to create chaos and operate within it. one of the ways i creates chaos is through his tweets. it's a very useful way for him to get his message out but also change the landscape. >> thanks, john. >> thank you. >> on sunday on face the nation john interviews the president elect's senior advisor kellyanne conway plus senators john mccain and bernie sanders. that's sunday here on cbs. >> another good show for john

dickerson. that's what he does. >> a south carolina courtroom will see dylann roof's videotaped confession to the charleston court shootings. shootings. yesterday's testimony included crime scene photos and a timeline of this attack. three cameras mounted a above the doorway show parishioners arriving. dylann roof arrives 8:17 after about an hour inside the video shows him leaving with a gun in his right hand. roof told investigators he was surprised that police were not there waiting for him. more video evidence shows that roof's capture the next morning in north carolina. roof's attorney does expect a guilty verdict but he says he should not get the death penalty. >> a second police officer was died after a shooting in georgia. jodi smith was shot wednesday while responded to a domestic disturbance call. nick lar smarr was also shot he died at the scene. the two were lifelong friends who attended the police academy

together. they were both planning weddings for next year. the fbi joined more than 20 law enforcement agencies in the manhunt for miguel lembrick. he was found dead yesterday in a home where he was hiding. police salem brick shot himself as a s.w.a.t. team prepared to move in. the head of nasa says john glenn led a life of greatness, the first american to orbit the earth died yesterday. glenn fought in two wars and served four terms in the united states senate. president obama said in tribute, john always had the right stuff. inspiring generations of scientists, engineers and astronauts. president-elect trump called glenn a great american hero and fellow astronaut buzz aldrin said he was saddened that we lost another space pioneer and world icon. >> godspeed, john glen. >> during his 95 years on earth john glenn blazed many trials.

he was not the first man to reach space, but glenn's three orbits in 1962 excited americans like none before. i spoke to glenn about that pioneering flight last year. >> you're going almost 18,000 miles an hour, that's about almost 5 miles a second, it's hard to believe that we go that fast. >> glenn's space shift nearly burned up during re-entry. when he returned safely a ticker tape parade was thrown in his honor in new york's canyon of heroes. later president john f. kennedy secretly ordered glenn grounded, deeming his life too important to risk. >> it had a lot of attention, would this be a bad symbol for the country or would it be whatever. i never did know, but i knew that i didn't want to just hang around forever waiting. >> lift off of discovery with a crew of six astronaut heroes and one american legend. >> glenn eventually returned to

orbit in 1998. this time as the oldest man in space. at age 77. >> for a man in his 70s to be able to stand the g forces on launch, it's impressive. >> it was while trainin do greao serve his country. i think i will use him as career. >> president obama awarded him the presidential medical of freedom in 2012. a decorated marine corps pilot, glenn flew 149 combat missions during world war ii and the korean war where his wing man was hall of fame baseball player ted williams. glenn's distinguished senate career spanned 24 years, but his biggest regret he said was an unsuccessful bid for president

in 1984. >> you think that your ideas and all these different things on the economy and the military and our leadership in world affairs and all that your ideas in your own head are the things that should direct the future of this country. that's pretty heady stuff. >> glenn is survived by his wife of 73 years annie, their two children and two grandchildren. he will be buried at arlington national cemetery. >> we send our best to annie, she was his lifetime partner and they were such a great couple. >> what a love story. what a legacy he left for us all. >> man of great integrity. >> american hero, american legend, american icon. to evacuate a plane in less than 90 seconds, but who is training the passengers? ahead peter,,

thanked women for their vote and praised himself. >> all over the world they're talking about our country. we haven't even started yet. >> do we expect to see the president of the united states to be tweeting throughout his presidency? >> he has successfully learned how to create chaos and operate within it. one way to create chaos is through his tweets. >> the large of the original mercury astronauts died. >> what a legacy he left. >> man of great integrity. >> american hero, american legend, american icon. >> president-elect trump pictured an executive from the fast food restaurant carl's jr. and hardee's. >> i'm not sure if this the best guy for the job. maybe he's not that bad. this morning's eye opener at 8:00 is sponsored by -- >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. back-to-back winter storms are

welcome. >> thank you. >> what role are you playing in this transition? >> i'm not active in the transition but i'm watching. >> are you talking to the president-elect is the question? >> i'm watching the transition, not active in it, i don't want to talk about who i'm speaking to, but i'm aware of what's going on. >> can you tell us with respect to secretary of state major garrett is hearing that ray tiller son is getting a very serious look. >> mr. trump will speak to that i'm not going to talk about the type of people he's talking to. he's talking to a broad range of people. the important thing, you look at the transition is that mr. trump is taking a very active role in the transition process, he's not just interviewing the final candidates of some president-elects have done, and he's looking at people as their qualifications for government, not just for one position or another. and i think that over the course of the transition, not just the cabinet members, but the sub

cabinet members and agency heads as well are people he'll speak to because he thinks the president-elect should be actively involved in the government. and he said he would be an active president, he'll bring change and what you're seeing in the transition process is the kind of leadership he'll bring to the presidency and said he would bring. >> can we go back to mitt romney, there are reports that the trump team is divided about mitt romney. some say that, you know, they don't think it is a good choice, others say, yes, where do you fall on that? what advice have you given him? conversations, what are you saying? >> i basically the point i think that romney consideration is that donald trump is looking at putting together the strongest team for the country. and the strongest team that will be part of this administration. people who are republicans, people who are democrats, people who are supported him, people who haven't supported him. >> how do you feel about mitt romney being secretary of state? you have donald trump's ear. you still speak on a regular basis. >> i'll support whatever the president decides he's going to

do. is romney qualified to be secretary of state? yes, he's qualified to be secretary of state. the key is whether he and president trump can see eye to eye on the agenda that secretary of state will have to lead over the course of the next four years. >> if he's qualified, is it a question of loyalty? >> no, it is a question of who donald trump wants in that position. the fact that they have engaged in -- starting to build a relationship back to what was a good relationship in the past is a positive thing and whether mr. romney is a part of the government or not i think they'll have a relationship going forward. >> there is a report this morning in new york magazine by reporter gabe sherman that describes the scene inside trump towers like game of thrones-esque. >> i heard house of cards-esque, there is concern about betrayal among the troops. >> who is in charge, steve bannon or reince priebus. >> donald trump. no question donald trump is in charge. each of the people have their respective roles.

transitions are by definition a work in progress. by the time it gets figured out, the inauguration happens. this is actually been of all of the transitions i've witnessed over the last four years this is actually a very aggressive, positive event. there is always people jockeying for position in a system. it is a campaign, transition or an administration, but what is happening here is you're seeing a process, executing. the biggest difference, i think, from this transition is that the emphasis is on bringing change to the government. >> okay, but let's talk about that, who it was that elected donald trump. a lot of people feeling economic pain. and some are raising the question, can all those billionaires have a true understanding of those people who supported and the things that they care about? >> first of all, donald trump has an understanding of it. he clearly two years ago had understood the american people, he was very consistent throughout his whole campaign, and to the surprise of many, but not to donald trump, the

american people responded to the message. his presidency, what you see in the transition process, is focusing on that exact thing, bringing change. the people who said he's going to nominate are all consistent with the philosophy that he talked about in the campaign. president obama said in 2009, yes, election has consequences and i, obama won, well, yes, electionses have consequences. >> two questions. what happened to you? you were part of the campaign, the cv guy. and then you were gone. >> well, i became a block to his ability to communicate his message. i didn't think it was fair. the allegations were not true. but the reality is i became a block and my goal was to get donald trump elected president of the united states. >> what does that mean, you became a block in. >> the media was covering charges which after the election were proven to be false. >> you're not currently under investigation? >> i'm not. and the government of ukraine

said the ledger was a false fif document and the bureau said they never investigated me, never will, they said. but at the time of the election, in -- >> will you lobby for foreign clients during the -- >> no. >> you won't lobby for any foreign clients? >> i have no intention of going back to that. >> what are your plans january 20th? >> to be standing in the cold watching the next president get nominated -- sworn in. >> sworn in. all right. >> we'll keep you posted. >> good to see you. >> diehard gilmore girls fans are thrilled to have the show back. >> i've never seen a second of the gilmore girls. >> go. >> get the shotgun. >> get rid of this guy, man.
