administration has leaks. i'm impressed with the trump white house kept secret about the nominee supreme court. are leaks comings out more than usual? >> president obama left with grace and president trump came in with excitement and a commitment to do what he said he was going to do. people should not be surprised by the as per ration president trump brought to the office. i think there's a learning curve for the white house staff. i was impress with your interview because it demonstrates there need to be process to consider options, not option to change as per ration of the president for policy but a process to allow the people to anticipate the decision and narrow the number of unintended to decision that are made. i give them high marks.
3:32 pm
learning curve grades they move from c to a c plus. they are moving into b, b plus. issues and consequences sometimes before the policy are announced in great detail. i do say they have had a -- find a more credible stride and to the president's credit, he was doing with without cabinet in place. i want senate to confirm the rest of the cabinet to have wise counsel to participate the process of implementing proess is. it's implemented by the agencies and department around the federal government it's wise to

3:34 pm
priebus took it seriously. he has to make sure there's a process in place to protect the president, not protect in litel sense but having space and time taken up with -- you want decision to be made with wise counsel, you need process to allow the president to get wise counsel and take decision to implemented to live up to the president's expectation. that's a difficult things. in terms of reince. he is prepared for the job. i'm impress with joe hay gen. there's are troubling areas reince has to understand the people who have -- president should not be worrying about.
3:35 pm
>> we have a minute left. you mentioned obama chief of staff. we make it look like there's wars in the city, but the obama staff was gracious to the incoming staff to the trump. trying to make this a good transition. >> that's important. i think people who have worked in the white house realize how important it is to for the whole world to see how america can have a transition that is is peaceful even when there are presidents coming in of ha different party or different philosophy. people who work at the white house regardless of policy or philosophy are rooting to r to the baton to be passed to make a difference so that -- president is the president of everyone in this country and leader of the free world.
