conservative news site, breitbart. the reince priebus pick celebrated by republicans but not likely with trump's base. one source telling nbc news, instead of draining the swarm, we just put in the head el gator. bannon's a bomb throwing seen as having controversial views light lining up with the alt-right and nationalists. but associates are defending bannon saying he has inclusive personal views despite on "60 minutes," trump's first tv interview since his surprise victory, the president-elect vowed to crack down on undocumented immigrants beginning with criminals. >> what we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers -- we have a lot of these people. probably 2 million, maybe even 3 million. after the border is secured and after everything gets normalized we're going to make a determination. >> reporter: house speaker paul

deportation. >> we are not planning on erecting a deportation force. donald trump's not planning on that. >> reporter: as for his signature campaign pledge, that border wall with mexico, trump now says in places he'll settle for a fence. trump's also promising to appoint supreme court justices who are antiabortion acknowledging roe v. wade could eventually be overturned affecting women's access to abortion. >> then some people won't be able to get an abortion. >> no. >> no, but -- >> perhaps they'll have to go to another state. >> reporter: on another campaign pledge, trump is refuing to rule out appointing a special prosecutor to look into hillary clinton's private e-mail server. >> they're good people. i'll give you a very good and definitive action the next time we do "60 minutes" together. in this bitterly divided country, trump is also

slurs and personal threats. >> i am so saddened to hear that. and i say stop it. if it helps, i will say this -- i'll say it right to the camera. stop it. >> reporter: this weekend asked if he thought his rhetoric had gone too far on the campaign, president-elect trump said, no, i won. this morning he's also pledging not to receive the $400,000 a year presidential salary and not to take any long vacations during his time in the white house. in his words, er much to be done. matt and savannah? >> peter, thank you. another big person until pick, steve bannon, will serve as donald trump's chief strategist and senior counselor. it is a pick that immediately caught some controversy. nbc's hallie jackson in washington with more on that. hallie, good morning. >> reporter: hey there, savannah, good morning to you. steve bannon, the former head of breitbart news, has been a controversial figure in the president-elect's orbit from the moment he came on board late in the campaign. his supporters are now

critics are growing very concerned about what kind of world he might bring to the west wing. often on stage with his boss, steve bannon now in the spotlight after helping to propel donald trump to the presidency, promoted to chief strategist in a position to shape the future president's policies. ban be, one of trump's first appointments, and already his most controversial. before joining trump's campaign in august, bannon led breitbart news, a site one calling a conservative columnist a renegade jew. bannon saying this summer he wanted breitbart to be the platform of the alt-right, a conservative extremist movement with ties to white nationalism. the appointment of breitbart drew immediate fire. "the racist fascist extreme white is footsteps from the oval office."

to send his children to school with jewish students. a claim he denies. politically he's a flame thrower. >> you may own these buildings but they're occupied by a permanent political class that is out for your destruction. >> reporter: house speaker, paul ryan, brushing off any issues with bannon. >> i've never met the guy. i trust donald's judgment. >> reporter: but ryan's congratulatory tweet praising reince priebus, the next never mentioned the chief strategist. >> are you ready to elect donald trump president of the united states? his long time relationship with ryan, two men representing two factions, now under one west wing. the antidefamation league has come out against bannon's appointment. a couple of his friends and associates spoke with nbc news by phone defending his

charges of anti-semitism, acknowledging breitbart's provocative but calling bannon a champion of diverse voices. they describe him as an intense and focused leader. >> hallie jackson in washington, thank you. reince priebus, chairman of the republican national committee, will join the trump administration as chief of staff. good morning, congratulations. >> hey, thank you. very nice of you to have me on. >> you were on our set wednesday morning after donald trump won trump about a position in his administration. you hadn't even thought about it. so this came together rather quickly. did you have any reservations about accepting this position? >> no, not at all. i mean other than making sure that it was good with my wife and the kids and getting that piece of my life straight. we've had a great partnership and i've learned to get to know president-elect trump and steve

great partnership and he really wants everyone to understand out there that he wants to be a president for everyone. >> right. >> no matter your background, your race, your gender, your faith. he wants to do well for every american across the board. >> but to some, you're an odd choice for chief of staff because they've been watching this campaign over the last year or year-and-a-half. they've heard donald trump say we want to bring change to washington, we want to drain the swarm, we're going counter to you're the ultimate insider and dealmaker. why are you the right fit for this job? >> well, first of all, it's about an advisory role. it is an operations role. but also, i was elected by the grassroots members of our party across the country. i get elected by the people that are making the phone calls and putting up the yard signs and the people doing the work. i'm a guy from kenosha, wisconsin who was elected

but secondly, i would just tell everyone that the reason we had an electoral landslide in this country is that donald trump was able to bring different pieces of our party together. the reason why he did as well as he did is that he appealed to people like me. he appealed to people in all respects of our party. and so that -- it takes a talent and an ability that president-elect trump had. but it was his message and the delivery that created that incrediblegh bannon? in some ways he is the flip side of the coin here. a lot of people are concerned because they look at breitbart news. as one paper put it, recently accused president obama of recruiting more hating muslim, and i guess people are bondering is this the world view that

about him that would be contrary to the website he ran? >> sure. and that wasn't his writing. that was some articles in breitbart. it wasn't him. >> okay, but he is the head. the buck stops with him. >> the guy i know is a guy that isn't any of those things. the guy i know is the guy sitting in an office all day yesterday talking about hiring -- talking about -- in qualities. here's a guy who's harvard business school, is he a ten-year naval officer, london school of economics, i believe. he is a guy who is pretty -- he's very, very smart. very temperate. and together we've been able to manage a lot of the decision making in regard to the campaign, along with kellyanne and it's worked very, very well.

interview last night, you saw a president ready to be president for every american so that in 20 years people are going to look back at president trump and say, wow, this guy did every single thing he said and he led this country with honor and dignity. that's the donald trump that people are going to be talking about in 20 years. >> let me just follow it this way, in the west wing will you or steve bannon have more power and influence in shaping donald trump's agenda and policies? >> i think it is a different role. the chief of staff is operations of the white house. in regard to advising the president, i think if people understand president trump, he likes taking opinions from a lot of different people. he's not a person that just listens to one person and does whatever that one person says. he decides. so in advising the president, i would suspect that me, steve bannon, i think jared kushner, obviously, his son-in-law is going to be very involved in decision making.

donald trump is going to be. i think you are going to find that in a few months, as people see the agenda roll out in the first 28 days, the first 100 days, that he is going to be a president for all americans and he is going to make you proud. >> reince priebus, again, congratulations. >> you bet. >> talk to you soon. thank you. well, what is next for the democratic party? still reeling from a stunning loss. president obama set to hold a news conference this afternoon. nbc's kristen welker with that part of the story this morning. hi, kristen, good >> hi, savannah. in addition to that press conference, president obama will also call members of the democratic national committee today as hillary clinton reaches out to house democrats to discuss next steps in what went wrong. the outreach comes on the heels of clinton placing part of the blame for her loss squarely on the shoulders of fbi director james comey. >> reporter: democrats looking for the way forward with president obama and hillary clinton poised to reach out to top democrats today.

who its leader will be with the president leaving the white house. it will likely also be a rallying cry, not to give up on key party policies like obamacare and immigration reform. what did go wrong? in a phone call with donors on saturday, clinton said she's heartbroken, blaming fbi director james comey for stopping her momentum after he revived the issue of her e-mails in the 11th hour of the race. >> i just can't believe it is always somebody else's >> reporter: but on "meet the press", kelly anne conway blasted clinton for the finger pointing. >> sometimes you have to reflect and figure out what went wrong. we saw the polls before the announcement on october 28th. >> reporter: rudy giuliani claimed obamacare played a role. >> we put up front in all of donald trump's speeches for the last two or three weeks not the fbi but obamacare. >> reporter: but within clinton

failed to aggressively reach out to white working class voters in places like michigan, ohio, and pennsylvania. a source familiar with former president bill clinton tells nbc news he was pushing for more outreach to those communities. other realization -- the obama coalition just didn't turn out in the same force without president obama on the ballot. >> even though we didn't get those turned out, it is not time to give up. it is time to keep fighting. >> the p press conferences after the election. today he is talk about the transition of power and how the country can move forward even as thousands take to the streets to protest the election of president-elect trump. also this morning, strong aftershocks are rattling buildings and a lot of nerves in new zealand where a powerful earthquake hit overnight. nbc's janice mackey-crayer is in christ church. >> reporter: good morning, matt.

magnitude 7.8. there have been hundreds of aftershocks, several of them strong. a tsunami alert has been lifted but people are still being warned to stay away from the shoreline. so far two deaths have been reported, though rescue teams are only now getting a clear picture of the damage. another the earthquake's epicenter there are huge cracks in roads and landslides have cut off towns. the focus of the relief effort now is trying to get supplies about two hours north of here where a state of emerg h accessible only by air. experts believe the earthquake was actually two separate quakes along different fault lines. new zealand lies on the so-called "ring of fire" where tetonic plates meet and often collide.

but it was also deeper. the physical damage doesn't appear as dramatic but nerves are seriously rattled here and there is, of course, concern that the death toll could rise as rescue teams begin to clear the rubble. >> janice, thank you very much. let's turn to al with a first check of the weather. the supermoon? >> this is really cool. the video and pictures just amazing. as you look -- not just in this country but all around the world. the weather's been spectacular. the supermoon and you just have to be in awe. look at it just balancing on top of the arch there in st. louis. and all over the world we've got some gorgeous video and pictures. you can see. you beauty of this, the orbit around the earth of the moon is not exact will i round. it is more elliptical, more egg-shaped. now the supermoon, this is the

>> you know, i'll conduct myself in a very good manner but depends on what the situation is. sometimes you have to be rougher. >> these are the most corrupt people. >> reporter: refusing to say he'll stray from the fiery language he often used on the trail. >> sometimes you need a certain rhetoric to get people motivated. i don't want to be just a little nice monotone character. >> can you be? >> sure i can. >> reporter: as for his signature campaign promises, trump's pledging to deport millions of undocumented immigrants beginning with criminals. >> what we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers, we have a lot of these people. probably 2 million, could even be 3 million. we're getting them out of our country or we're going to incarcerate. but we're getting them out of our country. they are here illegally. >> reporter: the president-elect also talked about what would happen if roe v. wade would overturned.

>> but then some women won't be able to get an abortion. >> it will go back to the states. >> well -- >> perhaps they'll have to go to another state. >> and that's okay. >> well, we'll see what happens. it's got a long way to go. >> reporter: as for appointing a special prosecutor to investigate hillary clinton -- so far, no verdict. >> i'll have to think about it. i don't want to hurt them. they're good people. i don't want to hurt them. >> reporter: for his part, news conference this afternoon where he is going to address donald trump's election. both the president and hillary clinton will speak to top democrats today as they plot the party's path forward, even as clinton blames the head of the fbi, james comey, for stopping her momentum by reviving her e-mail issue in the waning days of the race. matt back to you. >> peter alexander, thank you. there are still protests, anti-trump protests, almost a week after the election. nbc's gabe gutierrez in ft.

for the fifth straight night protests erupted across the country. the one that started here drew several hundred demonstrators and we spoke with many of them who accepted donald trump's victory but they were outraged over his policies and wanted to make sure that he paid attention. >> not my president! not my president! >> reporter: overnight more protests against donald trump. this one in ft. lauderdale. peaceful but passionate. >> this is not about democracy. this is about a bigot winning. that's the point. >> reporter: since the election there have been anti-trump demonstrations in at least 82 cities. >> we are the popular vote! >> reporter: the heightened tension comes as the southern poverty law center is tracking an unusual spike. more than 300 reports of hateful intimidation or harassment since the election. for his part, the president-elect told "60 minutes" he had not heard about any racial harassment in his name. >> do you want to say anything

that's terrible. because i'm going to bring this country together. >> reporter: during a tweet last week, trump had at first said that these demonstrators were professional protesters. then hours later said that he was glad that they had passion for our great country. more protests are expected throughout this week. matt and savannah? >> gabe gutierrez, thank you so much. coming up next -- meghan markle, prince harry's girlfriend, on dating. we'll get to all of them.

i feel like i want to be transparent and people are expecting this to be real and it is. >> let me talk about real, because it's real but it's also personal. at one point in the book you talk about feeling lonely. >> yep. >> and about wanting more out of life. you write this quote. i know there's something deeper for me in my future. i need there to be. can you remind me of the period of your life you were going through that created that thought? >> well, i think it was a moment in my life and we all have loneliness and a lot. that was a moment that i was having. i am the least introspective person. three years has made me think of things in a different way. i think it's opening myself up to love and a relationship and maybe a kid and i think i'm

honest short stories that can have you laughing outloud. i can vouch for that. >> thank you for having me. y'all can't get rid of me. >> we love you. and now you are an author but as i understand it, not a memoirist. >> i don't know. that word sounds so pretentious, doesn't it? like if you like live the storied life. but i do feel a little silly calling it a memoir as though i've experienced so much and can possibly impact wisdom. i don't know what you c book of embarrassing and slightly incriminating stories. >> you call it "scrappy little nobody." i actually love that title. let's discuss it. >> it is one of those titles that i knew that some people might take it as me trying to be like, little old me? that's disingenuous. it was about this conversation i had with my brother. do you ever just have that feeling am i getting lazy? did i used to be a better

brother. i was like i think i was more capable when i was this scrappy little nobody. he's like you're still scrappy, you just get more e-mails now. then i found this photo of me when i was like 3 years old looking really feisty and really angry. i cannot imagine about what. it just kind of made me feel happy to know that like that drive that you have at any point in your life you can access that no matter -- oh, yeah. there she is. >> i she's adorable. we'll get back to that picture in a moment. you started -- people might know you from "up in the air" or "pitch perfect." you started on broadway as a young girl. but i love what you write. you say i get embarrassed about being a child actor probably because i spent a lot of time around child actor when i was one and they're crazy. >> it's funny, like my knee-jerk reaction was to go, yeah, i'm one of those crazy childhood actors. proves my point exactly.

"scrappy little nobody." you say even now i worry every job i get is going to be my last. >> me, too. >> just in an alley, chain smoking, talking about my glory days. i can't wait. >> you tell little tales about hollywood here and there. one of my favorites had to do with when you were just getting known for "up in the air." then are you at the red carpet and people think style. they just make you buy really expensive shoes. >> it is one of those funnily things it is the great irony once you can afford the shoes, somebody will lend them to you which is lovely. but at that point, the movie wasn't out yet and nobody really knew who i was. and my stylist was like, well, you still have to be wearing the expensive shoes. otherwise the world will end. i don't know. and kind of talked me into buying these shoes that were

life has completely changed already? and it hasn't. i'm going to need to wait on that. but i got talked into it. >> are you still paying off the shoes? i bet you they weren't comfortable either. >> no, not at all. why would they be? >> back to your picture. i notice it is on the back of the book. we'll put up your picture first -- or not. i'm really building up to something here. the first thing i thought was, wow, that hair, i i just want to show you, that's me. and now my little girl who looks just like you. look at that! >> oh, my god. may we all turn out as well as you, anna kendrick. >> thank you so much. that was so cute. >> "scrappy little nobody"

tomorrow. next, billy bob thornton is bringing back one of his most popular roles. bad santa. that's next.

we are back at 8:41. "bad santa" has been a holiday movie mainstay for more than a decade now. now willie and his badmouth are back for the sequel. billy bob tell us all about it. but first a little preview. >> that's great. that's great. i don't know. >> grand theft auto 5. >> i don't care. what can i get you? >> a stuffed animal. >> what? okay.

morning. why did you make us wait so long for a sequel? it took 13 years. >> you know, in a lot of ways it helped waiting that long because you got to see the kid at 21 as opposed to the next year where it is the same people doing the same stuff. >> he has not changed very much. >> it is unbelievable, isn't it? >> he was adorable then and he looks exactly like what you would think. >> it is like they took the 8-year-old, put an air hose in him and just blew him up. >> it's true. you wait 13 years. your character willie, i think it is fair to say, has not had a season of personal growth. he has not evolved. he's as bad as ever. >> yeah. he hasn't changed a lot. i think the one thing though in this second movie is that you do see more of willie's heart. i mean it is a little more emotional than first one, has a little bit more of an actual

because you get to see where he came from. >> we see his mom. kathy bates plays mom. >> it is not pretty. >> apple doesn't fall far. >> i'm telling you. >> when you think about this movie and why it resonated so much with people and why they loved it, it's kind of a raunchy movie. it is a little bit wrong. but in the right way. is that what you think? this sort of being kind of irreverent was the thing? >> i think peopl alternative to the more sentimental movies. a lot of people get really grumppy at christmas. some people don't have fun with their family. over at our house we have a traditional christmas and we love the whole season. but some people really wanted to not just have to watch "miracle on 34th street" or whatever. and also i think people live vicariously through people like willie. sometimes it is like all the things that they'd like to say in the grocery store line, willie just does it.

the thing became iconic in its time. and so it was our duty to at least get close to as good as the first one. so hopefully we did. >> the profile you did for "gq." you did a very cute story about you and your little daughter and how you love my little pony. i love that. >> oh, yeah. i watch it every day with her. and this is the more grown-up version. it is not like the little kid one. she's 12 now. "equestria girls." they're girls, not horses. we watch that one quite a bait. some of the stories are kind of heavy. underlying theme. you know? it's heavy sometimes. so she actually learns a lot from it. >> you're giving me a whole new perspective on my little pony. >> absolutely. my little pony is the on the water front of children's shows.

greatest country. here's what he said. >> i think so. it is enormous. i've done a lot of big things. i've never done anything like this. it is so big. it is so enormous. >> kind of just took your breath away. couldn't talk. >> a little bit. a little bit. and i think i realize that this is a whole different life for me now. >> but are you going to be upset about, just put out there? >> so -- >> when you're president? >> it is a modern form of communication between facebook and twitter, and i guess instagram. i have 28 million people. >> so you are going to keep it up. >> i'm going to do very restrained, if i use it at all. i'm going to do very restrained. i find it tremendous -- it is a modern form of communication. there should be nothing you should be ashamed of. >> speaking of the enormity of

number one plea. there is is a report now because donald trump is such an outsider, he did not know you have to staff the west wing. like he does not know the mechanics of it. because he never ran for office and is the ultimate outsider. >> i think one interesting thing this be he is not going to take the $400,000 annual salary. he's going to take $1 a year. but i think the enormity of it was kind of obvious. when he came after that out of the meeting with president obama. i think he by what he is about to step into. >> if he did not have that feeling, i know people have said is he a narcissist and all these things about him. but whatever extreme ego you may have, walking into capitol hill, looking out and knowing that now you are making decisions that will impact not just the 330 million people in this country, you impact the world. he's already been on phone with china's leaders.
